This is anxiety related distress. Many times as we want to avoid certain outcomes we end up making a safety behaviour like in your case these behaviour you have discussed. Now the issue is you don't strongly believe both. So this conflict is more of a problem than the problem itself.

Next Steps

See a therapist expert in anxiety related issues. Tell him to work on your secondary appraisals and then if required on the Primary ones.

Health Tips

superstition is not a superstition if you know that it is superstition. See a therapist he will help you understand this. And get you out of the conflict.
