Worksheet: I am scared of being ill

[Guest guest]

I am scared of being ill. This means the tightness in my chest,

weakness, nausea, and wierd energy running through me.

Is that true?

Yes

Can I know that for sure?

Yes

What does it mean to be ill?

That my body wont function, and I cant work

That there is something " serious " wrong with me that I can't fix.

That I feel terror and get very dramatic.

My body won't function, is that true?

No, it just doesnt function as well I would like it to. (chuckle)

How do I react when I think that thought?

I get depressed, scared, desperate. I worry about not having money to

pay my bills.

Who would I be if I couldnt think that thought?

Peaceful. I would notice that my body is functioning exactly as it

should be, whatever that is. I wouldnt put conditions on what it

should and shouldnt do.

My body does function.

My thinking about my body isnt functioning! ha ha

There is something seriously wrong that I can't fix

Is it true?

I dont know

How do I react?

fear, depression

who would I be if I couldnt think that?

Peaceful. I would be open to the fact that my body may be fixable,

just not in the way I have decided it should be. Or that it is perfect

the way it is.

TA: There is nothing seriously wrong that I can't fix.

There is nothing seriously wrong with my thinking that i can't fix

Who would you be if you could never again believe, that there is

something wrong at all?
