Stressed Out By My Bank Statement

Bank Statement Stress - Picture by Philippe Put flickr.com

I really dread my bank statement coming through the door. Not because I'm in the red but because I have to sift through all the figures to make sure everything is correct and this stresses me because I can see just how much money I have spent.

My heart starts racing, my hands get all clammy and i start worrying about the future.

I have started to approach checking my statement differently. I do it as quickly as i can so that I don't dwell on each figure and then as soon as I am finished I go and do something completely different. I find that distraction is the best remedy for me and my bank statement stress.
