In "Anxiety Rx," Russell
Kennedy discusses the
importance of exposure
therapy and response
prevention techniques for
managing anxiety. In this
exercise, you will engage in
gradual exposure to anxiety-
provoking situations and
practice refraining from typical
anxious responses. Follow the
steps below:
1. Identify Anxiety Triggers: Make a list of
situations or stimuli that consistently
trigger anxiety for you. These could include
public speaking, social gatherings, or
specific phobias. Be as specific as possible.
2. Rating Anxiety Levels: On a scale
of 1 to 10, rate the level of anxiety
each trigger evokes, with 1 being
minimal anxiety and 10 being
extreme anxiety. Assign a rating for
each item on your list.
3. Gradual Exposure: Begin
with the trigger that evokes the
lowest anxiety level. Create a
plan to expose yourself
gradually to that trigger. For
example, if public speaking is a
trigger, start by speaking in
front of a small group of close
friends or family members.
4. Track Anxiety Responses: As you
expose yourself to each trigger, pay
attention to your typical anxious
responses. These may include rapid
heartbeat, sweaty palms, negative
thoughts, or avoidance behaviors. Record
your observations in a journal or
worksheet.
5. Response Prevention: During the
exposure, consciously refrain from
engaging in your typical anxious
responses. Instead of avoiding or
escaping the situation, practice allowing
the anxiety to be present without acting
on it. Focus on staying present, using
relaxation techniques if necessary.
6. Gradual Progression: Repeat the
exposure exercise for each trigger on
your list, gradually increasing the level
of difficulty or anxiety associated with
each situation. Monitor your progress
over time and note any changes in your
anxiety levels or responses.
7. Reflection and Analysis: After
each exposure, reflect on your
experience. What did you learn
about your anxiety?
Did your anxiety
decrease over time?
Were there any unexpected
insights or observations?
Write down your reflections
and insights in your
workbook.
8. Celebrate Successes:
Acknowledge and celebrate
your achievements along the
way. Even small steps of
progress deserve recognition.
Reward yourself for facing your
fears and practicing response
prevention.
