This waiting for the stimulus $ is killing me....
I've got all my utilities due, and groceries are running low
I was only able to enter bank info today, so who know how much longer for it to drop.
I dont want to have to borrow more $ from family.
If this drags out another 2 weeks Im screwed.

Thanks for adding that. Resources like that can be helpful.
Yes, your point about simply acknowledging the contents is excellent. I would call that neither indulging or suppressing what arises. It's like looking out at the vast, blue sky and seeing clouds pass, be they white and fluffy or dark and stormy. The sky is not affected and neither holds onto the clouds nor does it try to avert them.
Another way to put it also, is what is, in technical terms, a pattern interrupt. As you said, notice what's coming up without being judgmental. If it is too strong, (you get caught up easily) you can also try just doing something else to create an exit point. Shift to whatever might be interesting, ANYTHING. Just change tack abruptly and on purpose.
That's a practice-oriented thing, too, but the habit of breaking the pattern causes the pattern to follow a new path and not continue the rather obsessive thinking that causes so much distress.
I want to add another item for perusal. It is a saying I picked up that serves me well:
A pessimist complains about the wind. An optimist waits for it to change. A realist adjusts the sails.
This is a good time to note the way the wind is blowing an adjust our sails as needed. 
hope things work out for you.
