100 days. Clink clink.
I wish i could deal with anxiety and fear like with lust.
Dont fight it, look it in the eye, say "I know you" (that means: I know you like trying to make me feel like the word will end if you dont get what you want, but we both know its just a show) and keep on moving.
Thank you Hashem.
Please help me grow.

I'm honored to have the great Grant comment on my thread.
I've been exposed to CBT practitioners since I was young. What was always lacking was my motivation and sense of self to really believe in the change that was needed and do the work.
BH through extensive therapy and work I have upgraded my standard of self-care to being clean and keeping track of being clean. 
I'm davening to Hashem that this Pesach should be the beginning of a new Aliya in me taking better care of myself on a new level and working on things like anxiety.
Wishing everyone here meaningful experience of their innate freedom this Pesach, no matter in what bondage they seem to find themselves. May we be all be able to envision what freedom we seek to get to, and may we be more free to pursue our destiny than we could ever imagine.
יגל לבי בישועתך אשירה לה' כי גמל עלי
