As a 57-year-old man dealing with anxiety, I have found that using a notebook to jot down my thoughts and feelings has been incredibly helpful. It may seem simple, but having a designated space to document my worries and then reflect on them later has allowed me to gain a new perspective. It’s like my notebook has become a trusted friend, holding onto my concerns so I can let go of them for a little while. I encourage anyone else struggling with anxiety to give this a try. Find a notebook that speaks to you and make it your own. Write about your fears, but also write about your joys and victories. You might just find that the act of putting pen to paper can bring about a sense of peace and calm that you didn’t know was possible. It’s been a game-changer for me, and I hope it can be for you too.
