So, reprogramming how your brain works is 'super simple'??

Yep! You’re doing it all the time by deciding what to put into it!
Speaking as someone who worked very hard to overcome some problems with anxiety, I can tell you it is certainly not 'super simple'. It was very hard work and I had a wonderful psychologist to help guide me through.

People who suffer should have hope, but telling them it is 'super simple' sets them up for a nasty fall. It's a battle against years of habits.

You took one path, and I’m glad it worked for you. There are other paths, too.
