I use a day planner just to remember appointments, but I've been thinking of writing a daily checklist for myself...things such as showering, exercising, cleaning tasks, and errands.

I feel my mind grabs onto stuff and overthinks until I'm stressed to the point of having an anxiety attack, and that's when dark thoughts (ex: I'd be better off dead) crawl in.

If I focus on powering through a list, will it help alleviate my anxiety?
