Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t. Assuming that it is, then you can practice not checking. Assuming it isn’t, then there’s nothing to change.

we do that we look at perspectives as more serious than they are sometimes but you put it in exact terms of just check it less if it is

Right. They’re attempts at controlling unpleasant emotional experiences. Checking is just a way of saying to the brain, hey, I got the signal and I’m going to try and figure this out. It’s reactivity to the unknown possibility of the future. But the truth is, we don’t know and can’t control the future.
