Dear Anita,
Thank you very much and sorry for my late reply. I did try the NPARR strategy today itself when I was having some intrusive thoughts, and it did help !
I am also trying to keep on reminding myself that these are just thoughts and not a real danger and as it is said, thoughts can be changed. I am also trying to understand my thinking pattern more, and what is the root emotional or mental pattern that it makes me aso anxious.
Regarding radical acceptance, I don’t know why but it makes me feel anxious to think about the idea of acceptance. Most of the times when I think about accepting things and letting them go, my anxiety grapples me back and it becomes more difficult. Any suggestions?
Thank you very much
