How do you deal with the contingency planning in adulthood?
I’m an adult now, and will I have stopped doing things to prepare plans (hiding & stock pilling food, finding nearby safe locations, packing págs, etc) I can’t stop making plans, and the underlying anxiety.
I’ve tried grounding techniques like 5 4 3 2 1 and the box method but it doesn’t seem completely help. I know about the underlying issues and I’m trying to deal with them, but how do other former foster kids deal with the behaviors and anxiety when it no longer needs to keep yourself safe, but it keeps effecting my life.
Dos anyone else feel stupid for making plans into adulthood, or am I just weird?
