Today on ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen are teaching you how to build distress tolerance skills. They start the episode by explaining what distress tolerance is and where the concept comes from. Emmalee and Jen discuss the relationship between acceptance of reality and its effect on distress. They answer your questions about discomfort from other people's distress, releasing control, tangible self-soothing tips for when distress arises, how to know if you have too much distress tolerance, feeling discomfort and doing it anyway, the anxiety feedback loop, and so much more! The episode concludes with a Dear Em & Jen about ADHD symptoms and how to handle criticism of those symptoms. Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action! PS: Fast forward to around 4 minutes into their convo to skip the intro and get straight to today’s content.
