I think that this is the only approach that works for most of us.

Tonight, instead of anxiety and insomnia, I found a good emotional space right before I went to sleep.

Hey this is great progress, whatever you did to feel in that space keep doing it!!

I realized, "Just for today I'm sure there was no OP, just me."

That's a really positive take & mature way of dealing with this situation - I can really relate to what you said there - Thanks

It's not exactly detaching, but it was enough to put my anxiety in a little box, then put it on a shelf. It makes it so I can be able to get back to detaching.

And today, is a better day.


Well done Ourboros, you aren't trying to break the mould, you are taking some realy positive baby steps & you feel better already. Keep this up, you're doing great!!
