How do you guys tell whether something you're worried about is rational and logical, or a very strong irrational worry? An example is worrying that my partner is going to get sick of me and leave - when he is distant, I worry that it's a response to my support needs being quite high. I look at the facts and see that, yes, I have needed a lot of support lately - logically it is safe to assume that this would burn someone out and they would need to walk away to maintain their own wellbeing. But on the other hand, I know that I have a fear of abandonment and that the worry he will leave is very common for me. How do you pick apart whether something you're worried about or scared of is founded or not?
