Rugby Union

I play Rugby Union, and I’m extremely anxious and worried about getting a serious spinal injury resulting in quadriplegia or paraplegia from playing rugby union and I’m also extremely anxious and worried about fracturing my skull and getting a bleed on the brain resulting in a serious brain injury and possibly death

What are some strategies I can use to stop my anxiety over getting a serious injury from playing my rugby union and what are some strategies I can use to stop worrying and catastrophizing about getting a serious injury from playing rugby union?

Hi Jonathan Gardiner, welcome to the site and rugby union is a sport I played for a number of years.

Can I ask what position you play because training to be a forward maybe different than playing in the back-line.
