4 sessions in…
Does this work? I’m having such a hard time with ERP. We haven’t done an exposure yet but my anxiety is through the roof about it. I want to quit. Does it get better? Does it actually help?

Yes it helps, I felt the same way when I first started. I think of it like how either route u go it’s gonna suck. One you could not do it and still have anxiety or you could keep going still experience that anxiety, but eventually get to a place where you don’t anymore. Hope that helps

Of course it does. It’s going to take a while—way more than just 4 session. Even 15 sessions. It really depends on the person AND if you’re also, on the side, do any compulsions. Those will hinder progress.

@Nica How do you stop the compulsion. I’m sitting in my chair debating on cleaning something. 🤷🏻♂️
