I don’t feel comfortable sharing exactly what my ‘intrusive thoughts’ are about but they can make me feel super uncomfortable and/or depressed. What are some ways you guys distract yourself? Or minimize them?
Its so hard but I journal, hike, listen to music. Sometimes I have to remove myself from situations to just pause and deep breath bc I feel embarrassed and uncomfortable. I have not done erp yet but it is super helpful for intrusive thoughts! I have trouble just sitting with the thoughts though. Sorry not so helpful but you are strong and can do it! Anyone who deals with this is strong!
@The Anxious Go Getter Girl No you did help! I appreciate you!
@SydneyMarie Thank you! You can do it!
@The Anxious Go Getter Girl ❤️you’re the first person I’ve talked to on here, and I haven’t had any close family or a single friend in years; this meant a lot! Thank you
@SydneyMarie Aww. Im glad! I get it.
