This is my first week in the program

A dear friend who went through severe anxiety introduced me to the program. I've been in it for a week and have been working the steps. I had several good days and hit a wall today. Is this normal? Karen

Hi Karen,
Welcome to the program! How great your friend was so open and sharing of her story.
To answer your question: It is very common, especially at the beginning of the program, to have ups and downs. Because we have made a habit of the negative thinking cycle and anxiety it takes a while to build new thoughts and actions. Stay positive and keep practicing. Be kind and compassionate with yourself and take good care of your body.

What part of the program has been the most helpful for you?
