Members,
Do you struggle with anxiety? Today we will be looking at sample exposure plans to help you overcome your fears.
If you fear taking a trip away from home…
• Spend a night in a hotel in your city or town that is near the perimeter of your “safe zone”
• Pick a small city or town not far away from home and go there for the day. Find a motel & restaurant that look good. Have dinner at the restaurant and remember the motel you chose will be the one you stay in on your first overnight trip.
• Return to the small town or city, go for dinner at the same restaurant and stay at the motel. After dinner, return to your room with a good relaxing distraction, sleep and return home the next day.
• Repeat the previous step gradually staying overnight further and further away from home and for longer periods of time.
