Dear Anita,

• Thanks very much for your truly insightful answer. Ever since that situation happened, I am trying to develop better perspectives and inculcate these values. The serenity prayer is definitely helpful, and to be honest I tried something like this in that situation only to fail in keeping it. I am trying my best to accept all things in my life through a more neutral perspective. Thinking about a purpose is empowering, and I did this activity once after coming to my university. It helped. I will try to hold on to these perspectives to develop a better vision towards life.
• About intrusive and self consuming anxious thoughts, what should I do to deal with them in a better way? I did some re online and I could relate with a few of the symptoms listed one some reliable websites. Please advise.
• Thank yo
