i hate “what’s the worst that can happen” as a technique for talking myself out of anxiety because so many times the Worst Possible Thing HAS happened and it was WORSE than what i imagined could be the worst thing and i had no way to deal with it and no one to talk to about it and the few people i turned to would either say “these things happen” or “this shouldn’t have happened to you” and neither is very helpful when trying to understand how to get a different outcome or process what happened
