Hi Jsquared, thats great, i to am on the second part and i feel i have noticed the same thing, i keep rereading over part one and two to reinforce them into my thinking, i have been on a few errands and have done the same as you if i have an anxious thought i know its not going to harm me, i feel a bit more confident as well as i have the knowledge, i really feel this is beneficial and am learning from it.
Hi jsquared: so happy for you! Thanks for sharing with us, great way to start the new year. You're right about the little steps, you're moving forward.
Right now I am currently on the second session of the CBT program, but I am already seeing some positive results. I have started to be able to recognize and point out my anxious thoughts and then calm myself down by telling myself that they are just anxious thoughts and cannot harm me. Sometimes if I notice the physical symptoms first its a bit harder to calm down or my anxiety level gets a bit higher, but I'm still able to calm myself down. This is a big success for me and I thought I would share it. It should be especially good for the newcomers to read, because like me, they might be wondering how it helps or when it might start helping. Thank you to the health educators, members, and website for the support and knowledge to overcome. :D
They may be small steps, but small steps lead to great journeys.
