In this episode, I want to talk about the power of acceptance and its role in OCD & Anxiety recovery. The reason we have difficulty with acceptance is that we are often clinging to something. Oftentimes we are clinging to an idea of a past or future that we would prefer.
So the first step of acceptance is letting go of our attachment to the alternative. Only then, can we begin to move towards and accept reality as it is. This enables us to have a much more harmonious relationship with life as we lay down the struggle of fighting and resisting the challenging moments in life.

This is 100% true. I still struggle with OCD and intrusive thoughts but acceptance and sitting with my emotions has been the #1 most effective tool for me. It’s not easy but it works
@Alex
Really?
This guy is incredible, why doesn't this have more likes
I recovered from ocd with acceptance and sitting with discomfort
@amine
Can’t see it right now! Explain how you sit with the discomfort?
I accept my anxiety and stop fighting it 😸
I get frustrated with the totality of my suffering. I must try to transcend this. I pray with the grain of faith I have that God will help me
You can do this! If you have OCD, look into ERP therapy, it’s the gold standard for treatment.
This has definitely taken me years to learn. Wish I had this video back then 👍
@Harpstring
God show me that too
Wow. This is my brain and the whole reason I struggle with disabling OCD, anorexia, and debilitating anxiety that has caused me to lose my job, my friends, my fitness, and made it nearly impossible to leave my home.
@amy. That’s rough. Me as well. God help us
❤❤❤ sending hugs
Thank you.
Powerfully useful information
Your videos are absolutely incredible
This was an amazing message. Thank you!
Great guy and very compassionate
Thank you from the heart
Great video Matt, thank you so much for doing these videos
Finally a good explanation thank you sir
Thanks this great
Thank you for this. I really needed to hear this today ❤
Thank you so much for this useful advice! Knowing that what is consuming our thoughts today will be different or viewed differently later, if thought of at all, really helps a lot!
Very hard concept for a control freak but things ain't working so got nothing to lose but try it.
Thank you for getting so real and personal, Matt. Thank you. This helped the most.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video. Acceptance is key as opposed to fighting what enters our minds. Taking a neutral stance is the way to go.
Yes! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video
You are so welcome!
nicely explained and very helpful thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Consuming thoughts and absorbing anxiety is the only real effective method that works for me. Ignoring thoughts works for a time, but this way I can completely purge my body from anxiety. Amazing, almost tantric experience.
I’d love to know more about this stuff … I’m working on acceptance for the first time after 30 years with anxiety
Me too
Matt, do you do individual counseling? I have done many many videos on youtube and seen many therapists in person as well as been inpatient. You are the first person I feel that truly gets my symptoms. Please let me know if you do individualized counseling via zoom, etc. Thank you!
Awesome
I can't accept anything if is not according to my own beliefs , that's why i get depressed and OCD
It is difficult to accept that you have been given a medicine that kills you. Ambien is deadly and I don't know how to cope with this! It gives me anxiety and panicked fatigue etc. Wish I could accept, it sounds so nice to just let go...
@anna
I have trouble seeing it too right now
No part of your journey is permanent
This is almost like a buddhist philosophy, the art of letting go
How do you accept it when ocd has beaten you up so much that you feel so depressed and hopeless?
