I tried mindfulness, I tried ERP, but for me, the biggest change that has enabled me to move forward and do things I wasn’t able to do before has been changing my perspective on my fears. Seeing them rationally, that they aren’t as awful as I thought they were, and that with acceptance you can still be happy and grateful for lots of things even if the feared situation wouldn’t be ideal. I can apply this new way of thinking to my whole life and move forward where previously I had been stuck and not progressing at all. It’s not always easy but acceptance is the key.
