REWIRED: The Teen Anxiety Guide & Workbook: Triggers and Maintaining Cycles
How avoidance and reinforcement can maintain distress
This resource discusses REWIRED: The Teen Anxiety Guide & Workbook conservatively and without diagnosing the reader.
Triggers and Maintaining Cycles
Track situations, thoughts, body sensations, actions, and short- versus long-term consequences without treating the worksheet as a diagnosis.
Questions to Consider
- How long has the pattern been present?
- What situations increase or reduce it?
- What activities are being avoided?
- What support has been tried, and what happened?
- Is safety or daily functioning affected?
Common Misconceptions
Distress is not a character flaw, and one symptom does not establish a diagnosis. Improvement is not always linear.
