One thing my therapist has taught me so far.
Don’t push your anxiety away because than it’ll push back like a child who wants all of your attention. Instead, acknowledge it. Tell your anxiety “I see you. I feel you. I’m okay.” DONT push it away. Go through it. Don’t let it come back with a vengeance. Go through it and watch it go away a lot quicker... YOU ARE NOT YOUR ANXIETY..
Easier said than done. But I’m trying. I’m really trying. Giving into it is soooo scary. But I do notice that when I push it away, it hits 10x harder and takes over my entire day.
I WILL NOT LET IT WIN

Are you by chance working with an IFS therapist? That language sounds very much like what they do. Good advice for sure!

I just had some trainings this past year as introduction to IFS and I absolutely love it!! I would beg to get trained in it if I was still doing clinical work, but I’m a supervisor, so I don’t really have a need for it, unfortunately. But I love the concept! The guided meditation video we watched with the creator of IFS had me in tears it was so powerful. I’m so thrilled for you that you found someone who has this training AND is a good fit for you personally 💜
