Looking back I think I was trying to fix my anxiety of understanding it.

This has been on my mind a lot lately.

For a time every time I felt anxious my first thought was, How do I make this stop? I was constantly looking for the trick, the next video, the next piece of advice that would make the feeling disappear.

The strange thing is, I don't think that approach ever really helped me.

What finally started making a difference was accepting that feeling anxious didn't mean something was wrong with me. It was a feeling. Not a prediction. Not proof that something bad was about to happen.

I still have days. I don't think anyone suddenly becomes immune to anxiety overnight.. I don't panic over the feeling itself anymore and that alone has made life feel a little lighter.

I'm wondering if anyone else has had an experience.

Was there a moment where the way you looked at your anxiety changed? Not because it disappeared,. Because you started responding to it differently?

I'd genuinely love to hear your story because I'm always interested, in how other people have found what works for them.
