How is your Anxiety Exposure going?
I've finally gotten organized to start an anxiety exposure program, and am just wondering if anyone else out there is currently starting, or in the midst, of a similar exposure program? I've been aware of CBT methods through therapy sessions before, and have even tried "incremental exposure work" in the past. The hardest part for me is getting organized--I would spend so much time planning (i.e., thinking over and over what I should do) that I never actually started. Thankfully, I found a wonderful online site called PanicCenter.net. They've really lit a fire under my exposure work because they have print versions of exposure and anxious thought sheets. I've spent the last 2 weeks recording my thoughts in their program (it's free!) and am just beginning my first exposure week. If anyone out there is in the throes of an exposure program, I'd really appreciate your insight. What keeps you motivated? Do you need organization like me, or other people to attend functions with you? I'd love to talk about exposure with any members who are on the fence about it, don't know what it is, or are succeeding at their own regimen. Thanks, and I hope all's well! :)
