Exposure Therapy Tips 💗

1. Take a fidget toy with you

(I never leave the house for an exposure task without my squishies <3)

2. Wear clothes that are comfortable and make you feel confident

(Being as comfortable physically and mentally can help prevent anxiety from getting worse)

3. Plan tasks in advance

(For me personally I have a weekly planner where I assign myself a task everyday such as ‘get on a train’ or ‘go for a walk by myself’ having set tasks everyday helps keep me accountable and also allows me to mentally prepare myself)

4. Practice affirmations e.g: “I can get through this”

(It can be hard to control the physical reaction to exposure therapy regardless of whether or not you try to control the mental reaction unfortunately but every little bit counts)

5. Get a good night sleep the night beforehand

(This one may be hard for a lot of people especially if you’re like me and struggle with PTSD but trying to get a good night sleep the night before can help prevent further exhaustion which exacerbates anxiety)

6. Fuel your body before and after

(Again another one that may be hard for a lot of people including the author of this post but fueling your body when it’s under stress is so important)

7. Find a support system

(For me this includes my psychologist, GP, parents and boyfriend)

8. And finally be kind to yourself!

(The fact that you are fighting your mind every time you step outside your house and still go out regardless makes you pretty badass if I say so myself 😊)

Navigating Social Anxiety | Understanding Shame And Overcoming Self-Doubt | Jesse Wynn, Ph.D

Join with them for an open conversation about social anxiety, a subject that is dear to my heart because he have struggled with it all of my life. he talk about my own experience overcoming the hurt and humor that come with having social anxiety. they examine the relationship between shame and social anxiety and examine why many people find it difficult to interact with others, frequently feeling inferior to a wider social group. he stress how critical it is to comprehend the causes of self-doubt and the reasons that exposure might not be enough on its own. Together, they may peel back the layers of self-discovery and strive towards removing the obstacles that prevent us from prospering in social situations. Although it's not an easy path, you can succeed if you put in the necessary reflection and work.

The presence of crowds at tourist destinations can greatly impact the travel experience. On one hand, a lively and bustling atmosphere can add to the excitement and energy of a location. However, when crowds become overwhelming, it can also detract from the enjoyment of the destination. . . . #photo #tajmahalindia #crowd #streetphotography #photoeveryday #exposuretherapy https://www.instagram.com/p/CqZpcfzvA8b/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Repost from @theartofblackpsychology Community, This is the work and it has to be done in such a way to bring peace, love, and harmony to everyone. Love is the Currency and Frequency I operate in to disrupt this #violence. This is also psychology, politics, religion, and mental wealth building that leads to economic empowerment in my opinion. This is definitely how I be in all of my spaces and it works because I show Love to me while I do this type of work...its draining, and currently I'm doing it at a discounted rate. That has to change and it will because I'm tired of poverty and this model is how I'm doing it. #talktomeandsee #blackhistory365 #yvonnemoniquelivingstonllc Urban Youth Trauma Center Association of Black Psychologists Yvonne Monique Livingston LLC #narrativetherapy #exposuretherapy #storytelling #storyteller #mylife #love #humanity #humanitarian #communityengagementcoordinator #livedexperiencematters #restorativejustice #therapyworks #withtherightone #traumahealing #familyfirst #God #politics #mentalwealth #mentalhealthmatters #trauma #work #community #change #building #currency https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm0YdLKsysW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
