Charlie Cox argues that worrying is like praying for what you don't want. He says you need to expose your fears and pain by talking about them, but then deliberately close the door and move forward, or you'll stay trapped in fear.
I think it's really important to identify, expose things that are worrying to you, things that are painful to you, things that are unprocessed that you need to, you know, talk about things, expose them, see them for what they are, shed light on them, share them. You know, there's immense healing in those, in those activities. At the same time, if you don't then shut the door on it and move and get on with your life, you will— there's a tendency to just wallow in the fear and the worry and the pain. And then you do, you know, what's that great expression? You know, worrying is praying for what you don't want.
