Writing things down to focus anxious energy
When I feel overwhelmed and struggle to focus, I write down even simple things to bring my mind back and to give myself a sense of progress by doing any step no matter how small

Initially wishing you a very happy new year 2020 😀.
Am so glad to see you in the forum, it's so true that daily life just makes us feel overwhelmed at time, just showers us with emotions. But writing down the thoughts, maintaining a journal is really helpful to know about what's happening around us and within us. This calms us down as we let go of the things by expressing them 😀.

Hello! And Happy New Year! Writing things down in order to keep track of your progress and to focus sounds like a great idea especially when living with anxiety. Every step of the way, no matter how small, counts. Keeping a journal helps us keep track of our thoughts and future tasks/plans!!
Have a good day!
