Worry Parking Page

“Write the worry down and hold it until a time I choose.”

Park a worry, deal with it at the time you set, and keep the tally of how many had evaporated by then. It's a named clinical technique from 1983 — and the tally is the bit paper can't do: your own percentage beats any quote about suffering in imagination.

  • A worry appointment with a time, a length and a place, and a countdown to it
  • Park anything in a sentence and go back to what you were doing
  • Three answers at review: it's gone, there's something to do, it's still live
  • Your own evaporation rate, worked out from your own list
  • Warns you if you've set the worry period near bedtime, which defeats the point

How it works

Three steps, then you're done

Park it

Write the worry down and close the lid.

Come back at the time you set

Same time, same place. That part is the mechanism.

Answer each one

Gone, needs doing, or still live — and watch the percentage.

Nothing you type ever leaves your computer. There is no account, no login and no server. Switch your wi-fi off and it still works — that's not a promise about our policy, it's just how the tool is built.

Questions

Do I need to install anything?

No. Each tool is a single file. Double-click it and it opens in Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox — whichever you already have. No account, no password, no software.

Does anything get uploaded?

No. Your numbers and files never leave your computer — the tools have no way to send them and no internet connection is needed to run them. You can switch your wi-fi off and they still work.

I'm not good with computers. Is this too hard?

The first thing every tool does is walk you through it in five short screens with pictures. Then there's a button that fills it with example numbers so you can watch it work before touching anything.

Will it work on my phone?

Yes. Email yourself the file and open the attachment, or drop the files in iCloud Drive, Dropbox or Google Drive and open them from there — then they're on every device you own.
