5 Ways You Can Stop Financial Anxiety

Рет қаралды 47,924

Күн бұрын

On #StayConnected I talked about something that is affecting every single one of us right now: the anxiety and fear around money.
Instead of telling you why you shouldn’t panic, I dove into the 5 things you can do right now to help ease your fears and stop the anxiety from spinning out of control.
I love this quote from the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank President James Bullard. He got very real this morning about the stock market and our world’s financial future: "The good news is that I think we will win this war, but the bad news is that we will have to fight the battle."
If you do these 5 things over the next few days, I know you will feel better and more confident about the battle.

Mel, you are a God send. I have taken the steps you’ve suggested. The most profound statement for me was knowing that this is a global problem. I am not alone! I have isolated for a couple of months in the wake of losing my teaching job at a charter school after 18 years, as well as not yet receiving unemployment benefits from a seasonal teaching job I’ve been waiting for since August. When I lowered my screen of anxiety and got still and quiet and real about it, I took action. I know that this won’t last forever, but I find that focusing on what I can do today and not projecting fears into tomorrow really helps. Thank you and Bless you.

Thanks Mel. Looks like I'm about to start a temporary job at the dollar tree. I didn't want to go back to minimum wage but the bills won't pay themselves

@sayakao588 4 жыл бұрын

Great advise! EGO and FEAR is something I must fear. Sitting here, crying and doing anxiety eating do not get me anywhere really. I would tell my friends if they were going through my situation, "Get an temporary job and quit if you don't like. You might love it, you might need it for a while. But either way it is WAAAAAAy better than staying home and binge eat!" so this is something I need! We can do this together! We are in this together!

I hear you!❤ And see this all over KZfaq, Facebook,ect. dealing with depression. I'm diagnosed with depression and anxiety and in a week or two I'm going to PESTER D.C. on getting more funding for mental health programs starting with more people staffed for crisis line where they can take calls from home. For now use EVERY tool you were taught in counseling to help with anxiety. What I do to cope: I journal each day how I feel especially using Mel's 5-Second Journal (If you don't have it download a template PDF by Googling "How to have the best day ever - Mel Robbins") some things I wrote are not bad..a few a-ha moments. I don't watch ANY news..yes I don't watch ANY...no tv news, social media, pop ups on my phone...none. If I want to keep up to date I go to my city's webpage (each city is different on the rules and the news of course points out the worst). I do a hobby I used to enjoy...play drums, crafting, ect. To calm my mind I do Tai Chi ( a good KZfaq channel is TaiChiHealthProducts). And I connect with others in Mel's group that also deal with depression and anxiety. Lots of love and hugs❤...remember...We Are Resilient!😁

Plug in search what ya looking for and read the subjects. You can write on here too. Make yourself a folder on ya phone, mine says tools. I put in the folder all sorts of things to help my mind. Insight timer being one. Check that out in ya apps too. An excellent meditation app I use evey day sometimes few times a day. We can't fix what we can't fix but we can work on us and learn more about who we are. Peace, blessings. Namaste 🙏💚

Good tips. Personally, I'm set; however, my adult children are not and being on a very tight budget, I can't help them. (I'm nearly 70.) My SIL is a master chef but his restaurant is closed and they have very little savings for emergencies. He has a huge ego and won't consider any work "beneath" him. I tried making suggestions and he started yelling at me. Of course, I backed off, but I'm concerned for my daughter, granddaughter and SIL I personally think he could start a KZfaq channel, as well as being on other KZfaq channels to help grow his own channel, but he won't listen. I believe he could attain a huge following and replace working his restaurant for future security. He's actually been a host on a few TV shows and is considered one of the top 20 chefs in America. I do realize starting a channel won't make him rich overnight, so he'll have to do other things as well for the time being. How do I talk to them?

Outline the economics of KZfaq for them. How much is 1 follower worth? How about 1,000? 10,000? 100,000? 1,000,000? I think presenting concrete numbers would assist in your persuasive argument. Good luck.

That last one is very useful these days. Every website for every one of the companies I pay regularly have programs in place to help those who have been effected by the COVID-19 situation. Do not be afraid to call them and see what they can do to help you out. I know that student loan firms have offered to approve all forebearances right now (I don't know what the limits are, but any help is help right now). Pretty much every other creditor has similar programs. Take advantage of them!

Burning throat for holding back tears. Asking how did i end up being like this. Can't even afford a stick of a cigarette. Don't even know how im still lying in this bed in front of this little electric fan.
