How to use it: How to stop reassurance seeking, one step at a time

Reassurance log

Track the urge to seek reassurance for a week before you change anything.

  1. Each time you want reassurance, write it down, even if you don't ask.
  2. Rate the urge from 0 to 10.
  3. Thirty minutes later, rate your anxiety again.
