When we are dealing with depression and anxiety, our minds can tell us that emotions last forever. It’s always like this. But it isn’t true. All things rise and fall. Choose a mild emotion and watch it move and shift for a few minutes. It’s like a cloud in the sky.

Imagine your child self looking up at you with eyes full of love and possibility. Would you be cruel or critical to this small, vulnerable and open-hearted person? When you are treating yourself harshly, remember to treat yourself like you would treat that child. Take care of you

Mindfulness can be defined as remembering to pay flexible and focused attention to the present moment, with an open awareness of the nature of being and non-being.

How does your inner critic treat you? Would you treat your best friend that way? Would you tolerate it if a friend beat you up emotionally the way your inner critic does? We can stand up to our inner critic the way a loving parent treats an unruly child - with authority & care!

Having an OCD or anxiety disorder diagnosis isn’t a mark of some deep psychological damage. We aren’t broken. We are whole human beings learning to live with a fine tuned threat detection system, that sometimes tries to run the shop. It’s that simple.

Everyone needs to calm the fuck down. We’re going nuts.

This is a great story and it is something that a lot of people don’t understand! I have OCD and anxiety too and it is not the easiest thing to conquer! ⁦@Camila_Cabello⁩ https://t.co/xSqDfbYPCC
