Three obsessive behaviours that you might be doing that prevent you from recovering from stress can be easily identified and remedied so you can enjoy a stress-free life. Sometimes your anxiety and stress can go beyond what can be remedied by an activity like hiring a fishing boat - whatever your preference.
Obsessed negativity is the first, and it is relatively easy to self-diagnose. People with obsessed negativity tend to be generally negative about things that happen in their life. Sometimes it's just one area, such as work, but it can pervade your entire life, from your family and friends, your personal image, places you go, situations you encounter, politics and more.
You might you find yourself saying things to yourself like "I never do this right" or "I always do the wrong thing or "People don't like me", for example. This may be completely subconscious for you, but essentially you have what's known as a "sour grapes" attitude, and it inhibits you knowing what it's like to view life through a positive lens and enjoy the beauty in yourself and people around you! The same world looks much different with a more positive attitude.
Obsessive perfectionism is the second challenge, and can be a deep source of anxiety. When you engage in obsessive perfectionism, everything must be done "right" - your way, to either your standards, or some standards that you perceive have been set for you. You may find yourself making statements such as, "I have to do this right, or I'll be a failure!" or "I've got to do this right or people will be mad" This behaviour might be totally under the threshold of your awareness, but it interferes greatly with your ability to enjoy things without feeling stress.
Finally there is obsessive analysis. When you are obsessed about analyzing things you find yourself rolling lists, instructions or processes around in your head, over and over. For instance, you might find yourself making statements such as, "I need to know this like the back of my hand or things might go wrong" or "If I don't have a handle on this, something's bound to go wrong".
An excess of analysis robs you of time to enjoy your life. You're caught up in a loop and you need to break free by reassuring yourself that all is well and undertaking activities that take your mind off it. Understand that not doing the analysis will not compromise your life.
What can you do to help relieve your stress? Identifying these blocking behaviours in your life puts you on the path to recovery. Before you engage a clinical consultant first, ask the people you know, love, and trust, "Am I negative about things?", "Do I complain a lot?", and "Am I difficult to be around?"
The truth may hurt, so be prepared for this. You will gain valuable insights into your personality, and your friends and family may be extremely supportive of your efforts to change and improve your life.
Secondly, keeping a diary of what you do and how it makes you feel can help identify the activities that cause blocking behaviours. Once you start to see patterns you can make changes to break those destructive activities down and replace them with positive activities.
