“Why Saying ‘I’m Anxious’ Makes Anxiety Worse”
Oct 01, 2025
Transform old survival patterns and guide your Child Mind toward growth and resilience
When you say “I’m anxious” or “This is too hard,” it can feel like a small release—yet it often reflects a pattern of the emotional brain, what I call the Child Mind.
As children, many of us learned that saying “I’m scared” brought protection, or “I’m sad because I can’t do it” invited comfort. The brain stored this as a survival strategy: if I emphasize my feelings, someone else will step in.
But as adults, repeating these words has an unintended effect. Thoughts gain strength through repetition, and the more you say “I’m anxious,” the more your mind projects and creates a reality that confirms it.
The way forward is not to suppress emotions, but to meet them with care and compassion. This is where your Adult Self steps in—listening with patience, soothing frustration, offering reassurance, and gently teaching new ways of responding.
You might say:
“I know you felt scared.”
“I know it was sad when you couldn’t do it.”
And then guide your Child Mind:
“You are safe now. You don’t need to be emotional. I’ll show you a better way—let’s try this together.”
By comforting, encouraging, and leading your Child Mind toward growth, it gradually becomes more capable and resourceful. And as this happens, the constant undercurrent of stress and worry begins to soften, leaving more space for clarity, strength, and joy.
💡 This is the heart of Child Mind Transformation Work—a gentle yet powerful process for updating the old circuits of the emotional brain, so you can live with greater ease and freedom.
