advice
My girlfriend can be surprisingly laid back at times and strangely overly anxious at others. She was afraid that her kidneys were failing last month when it was a much less serious problem, she worried that she had a brain tumor once when simply because of a headache, and she thought she was having a stroke last summer because he arm had fallen asleep and was tingling. Now, she's freaking out because some idiot on an internet site I warned her not to go to claimed that he was going to release a virus in the US that would wipe out the entire population, which is ridiculous, right? I told her that he's just a crazyass who probably didn't mean it and have tried to come up with other reasons it won't happen, but she won't calm down. Please help me. What do I say to her to get her to quit worrying about this stuff?
How bout you just spit out everything to her ? She really needs to learn the art of calming down and not think of the worst at any situation at all . Why don't you tell her "Look hun(i don't know the name) , instead of freaking out like this , why don't you just relax and think of the ways to solve this mess first ?" "You've been acting like this for so long and it kind of worries/bothers me . I really like you being calm and all so stop panicking about everything ! You don't need to worry too much and you still have me by your side so quit it , please ." That would be my dialogue but really you could just tell her the truth very softly , don't hurt her little heart . She's very fragile , i can tell that by the way she's acting . Just tell her the truth rather than comforting her with lies and bear the pain . All the best and i'm so sorry if this doesn't help .
