Frequency. That's how I have been working to deal with the anxiety.

We place an emphasis on considering WHAT we look at (social media, the news, the markets, your budget, etc.), but maybe we don't talk enough about the frequency with which we look... the WHEN.

Sometimes the anxiety comes when I don't check my budgeting/finances for a little while.

Sometimes the anxiety comes when I am staring at my budget for an hour.

Structuring a set frequency to look/update (weekly for me) has really helped here. Also doing it in the morning, with a clear mind and a coffee, definitely makes things better.

It's tough when you constantly worry about money because t can cloud your judgement and stops you from enjoying life. You are doing all the right things!
