Send in a question or comment via text.I'm asked all the time ... "Does this recovery method apply to GAD?"The short answer is that it does, but there are extra wrinkles with GAD that we must be aware of. We must learn to relate in a new way to anxiety and the symptoms and thoughts that come with it. This is the same way we approach the other anxiety disorders. However, we also must be aware of the meta beliefs and thinking habits that drive anxiety. Knowing how your beliefs and habits fuel your anxiety is the first step in changing those habits. We cannot really address GAD effectively unless we also address these underlying issues.So can you recover from GAD this way? You can, but there's extra work for you to do, so let's talk about it in this episode.For full show notes on this episode:https://theanxioustruth.com/148My books, website, and social media links:https://theanxioustruth.com/linksMusic credit: Afterglow by Ben Drake (with permission)https://bendrakemusic.comSupport The Anxious Truth: If you find the podcast helpful and want to support my work, you can buy me a coffee.
