How do I stop worrying?

I was a chronic worry-wart.

I finally said, "Okay, come get me. If what I'm doing is going to kill me, get on with it. Because one way or the other, *I'm not living like this anymore*."

Needless to say, I survived.

Was it that simple? Nope. I have to repeat that exercise every now and then.

Please. Help. I have learned fear in a way I never thought I would. From my husband. Always talking about current events etc. Catastrophic thinking etc. I have a good peer support person who recommended letting him talk for limited time etc. This did not work. I need quiet time time for meditation deep breathing etc. I survived bacterial meningitis of my brain. He does not seem to get this is all to much for me. I cry scream from the pain of our discussions about all this. We probably need to go our separate ways but it would be bad for us financially etc. Do I say no more to him? I think I do say no more to these discussions with him. Thank you
