What does it really mean to “accept” OCD and anxiety? In episode 631, Robert explains why acceptance doesn’t mean approving of intrusive thoughts, agreeing with them, or forcing yourself to feel calm.

Discover how trying too hard to accept anxiety can become another compulsion—and why learning to tolerate discomfort may be a more realistic place to begin. Robert explores how to leave intrusive thoughts unanswered, reduce checking and analysing, and gently return your attention to the life in front of you.
