We Can Overcome This

Yes. Your brain reacts fast but the body which is the subconscious making learns by patterns. So you should show your body you are not afraid of the thought for the body to slowly accommodate to the natural way the body is suppost to feel. Which is "normal"

I started with baby steps tho. Most importantly is the mindset you have waking up in the morning. Instead of waking up and saying thinking I have anxiety have OCD I just put my mind into what I want to have for breakfast, Waking up I just let my body and mind drift cause I trust that my body and mind know what to naturally do, when my mind tries to spiral on those obsesive thoughts during the day I just keep doing what I'm doing and let my thoughts be. But sometimes when I get overwhelmed by them and the anxiety creeps in I let myself feel the thoughts and anxiety knowing that what I'm feeling is just natural my body trying to protect me cause it's fearing that I'm in danger, real or not.

@LUISV I really like this approach! Thank you for sharing.

Yeah totally not like delusion more like pretend. t felt hella weird at first having to be redirecting my attention to what I'm doing without doing compulsions cause I wasn't use to that. But now I am more used to it and it feels more natural like I used to be before OCD ❤️‍🔥. I got more peace of mind. Except for the tinnitus my mind has being redirected to the ringing at night since the mind has nothing else to latch on xD😅

@LUISV - How do you overcome the real symptoms of anxiety, stress, etc. when something is left "unresolved" but it feels important to deal with that to be able to move forward? Is it like you just gotta keep reminding yourself "who cares" and accept it?

@Dude01 ❤️‍🔥Sorry for the late reply. You gotta resolve the root cause of anxiety you can't just say who cares, move on and accept it. If You feel like it's something important and it's bugging you then the brain won't leave you alone until you resolve it or at least try. I had to force myself to resolve some of my issues from childhood like trauma,PTSD etc. That helped tremendously for my real anxiety symptoms and stress. And for stuff we can't resolve we just gotta let ourselves know that we gotta live with it and it's ok you can forgive yourself or whatever with time anxiety will subside slowly but surely but the stress might not. For me the root cause of everything was my childhood traumas and the trigger was of it and OCD was drugs. that nobody knew what I was going thru it's always good to talk to people you trust with stuff that is hard to let others know. That helps tremendously knowing you can trust someone and that someone knows of your struggles. Until you don't adress the root cause of anxiety then it cannot get fully resolved. ❤️‍🔥
