I’ve been doing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) once a week for five weeks. It’s hard but I feel better. So far we’ve covered defusion from one’s immediate thoughts, acceptance of feelings, and self as context. Which I think means being less attached to one’s identity. That one was harder for me than expected. But the me having experiences at five years old is the same me right now - I haven’t changed, I just have an extra 30 years of experiences. I get it, and I don’t get it, but if you struggle with anxiety and have a couple of months to dig deep into yourself, I really recommend this therapy.
