Anxiety is a normal, healthy emotion when experienced during specific moments. But do you know the signs that anxiety has gotten out of control? Read more here...
Cbt deals with the way you are thinking or processing your thoughts as that is what is causing your anxiety. I have always struggled with my thoughts but now that I have learned to use the tea form to counter them in my cbt group I am feeling so much better. Once you catch and correct your various thinking errors that cause your anxiety you will start to feel a lot better. The tea form exercise is the exercise that has helped me the most but I do all the ones in the book called been there,done that? Do this! By sam obitz that we are used in our group. It's a simple book with lots of common sense and I recommend it all the time. My group ended almost two years ago and my life keeps getting better and better

There are many ways you can get cbt. Psychologists can administer it, sometimes on an individual basis or sometimes in small groups. (works better individually). There are also some self-help type books that you can get and try do on your own.
I'm pretty familiar with the process, so if you still have any questions, you can pm me!

Like Georgia said there are several options for doing cbt. Being in a group was awesome for me but some prefer individual treatment and others are self-motivated enough to do it on their own through books. Whatever you choose the key is doing the exercises daily!!!
