71 — Is Someone You Know Struggling with Negative Thoughts? Here is What to Say to Them.
What do you say to a loved one who predicts the worst-case scenario? Or how do you help someone who is convinced everything is going to go wrong? Your response could either add fuel to the fire or help them extinguish their anxious thoughts.
It's tough to know how to help someone deal with anxious thoughts. Some of the things I share today are how to listen so they can calm themselves down, the best questions to ask, and the phrases that can help them discover their inner strength.
