It can defintely be difficult to stop worrying. Usually I find that refocusing on something else, or proving my worries wrong can help a lot. Distraction can also work very well c:

Try to think about the positives in life. The more you think about the positives, the less you worry about other things.

When I need to stop worrying I do anything that I know will shift my focus elsewhere. Worrying can come from boredom therefore it is a good thing to try to keep your head busy by doing things that you are passionate in, could be drawing, cooking food, going out for a run, anything that will make other ideas pop into your mind. Music is often good to stimulate the mind to go elsewhere and stop overthinking. Accept the fact that worrying will make problems just bigger than they are. Be kind to yourself.

This is a tough one. Fine the root, Find what is worrying you and what's starting it. It really depends on what you're worrying about, But once you find what is really triggering it, You can begin to overcome it :)

You can stop worrying about a situation by seeing it more objectively than emotionally. It is easier for us to look in the situation in a negative way, but we really need to change our perspectives about it. Go with love and not with your thoughts, because thoughts have no actual power they are just fake. Fake stays fake no matter how big of a deal we make out of it. The longer we hold on to fake things, the tougher it becomes to get out of it. Just sit back and breathe as it is your life and you are the captain of it, you know how to sail the boat, as you are the driver of it. Do not pay attention to crazy winds, they just going to pass away like a moment - ALWAYS!

I think you can worry less if you take more me-time that means that you’re doing something what you really like and you really forget about your problems. Maybe it helps to meditate or to workout. For my it helps to relax with some nice food en watch YouTube. Maybe you can also ask for help from people who are specialized at this subject. You also can talk about it with people you really trust and do dun stuff together, go to the movie. But don’t forget to do other important stuff. So do the things you have to do and treat yourself for it

I believe the best way to stop worrying is to make a list, then prioritize (you might be surprised some aren't even worth your time), after that push yourself to action, because I've experienced first hand that starting something is halfway to the finish line. And most of all, believe in yourself because no one can help you the way you do. In addition, having someone you can talk to is also a great way of sharing the load. Speaking of which, sharing your burdens with those around you helps tremendously. You can do this. I believe in you.

The way i can stop worrying so much is to slow my thinking down and take things in smaller steps, bite sized steps, one thing at a time and not to look at the whole picture although having a plan in sight to head towards is an advantage otherwise that opens the doors to the flurry of worry! taking time out form thinking anything also helps just sitting quietly not moving, although some may say its wasting time or watching your life dissapear but i see it as a form of meditaion or sometimes do something differant that you have to concentrate on so it releives the pressure about the issue whats causing you to worry.
Have a helpful insight? Don’t keep it to yourself.
Sharing helps others and its therapeutic for you.
