You have an amazing opportunity as a parent to slow down the process of anxiety and give your children an opportunity to prove to themselves that they can handle hard feelings, thoughts, and situations. As a parent, this can feel like your own exposure, because more than anything you want to take away their discomfort. But the most loving thing you can do is help them build up personal experiences that prove they are capable. #ocdawareness #ocdrecovery #anxietytreatment #parentinganxiouschildren #anxietytips
If you struggle with mental compulsions, this workbook does an amazing job at helping you identify compulsions, as well as learn how to respond differently. Hopefully the first of many books by @theobsessivemind
Looking forward to talking #acceptanceandcommitmenttherapy for #ocd with @ocdwithdr.d on November 15th.
We hope to see you at the @ocdsocal online conference!!

There’s often the fear that if you’re compassionate, you’ll end up being unproductive. But as it turns out, shame is not the best motivator. Being compassionate can give you the breath you need to do hard things and achieve the things you truly care about.

Being willing doesn’t mean you love feeling anxious, but it means you’re making room for uncomfortable feelings in your life. Being willing to feel uncomfortable means you’re going to avoid less, allowing you to experience more.

You can draw up lists and find articles that support your concerns. You can probably create really compelling arguments. But if you pull back you can see that the issue isn’t about ‘evidence’, it’s about possible vs probable. Probable is based on information you have in the present moment that says you should be worried. But OCD and anxiety reasoning likes to pretend everything is probable and imminent even when present moment data disagrees.
