Summary
As parents we can be hard on ourselves. The parenting journey raising kids with anxiety and OCD can come with many ups and downs. Many of us blame ourselves when our child’s anxiety or OCD doesn’t get better.
But the truth is you can do absolutely everything to help your child with anxiety or OCD and they still don’t improve.
We are only one piece of the puzzle when it comes to our child’s anxiety or OCD.
In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explore the narrative that we often tell ourselves that says we are a failure when our kids are struggling.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, where you get help and guidance through the chaos of parenting a child with anxiety or OCD. |
| 0:11.9 | This show is for educational purposes and is not intended to replace the guidance of a qualified professional. |
| 0:18.4 | Here's your host, child therapist, Natasha Daniels. Well, hello there, |
| 0:23.5 | and welcome to another episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast. I hope everything's going good for |
| 0:29.3 | you. Today, I want to talk to you about you. I think that's an important thing to do. I like to support |
| 0:36.7 | you and your mindset because we're |
| 0:39.0 | on a journey raising our kids with anxiety and OCD. And our journey is separate from our kids. |
| 0:45.3 | It's a unique journey and it comes with its own ups and downs. And today I want to talk to you |
| 0:51.6 | about how to deal with the feelings of failure that a lot of us feel when our child's anxiety or OCD doesn't get better. |

| 1:31.1 | running this month. Very excited to announce at my mental health store, something totally different |
| 1:39.9 | than what I'm normally used to. I have an OCD card deck, kind of like an affirmation deck, |
| 1:46.5 | but for OCD, and instead of affirmations, it's about building skills, learning soft compassion, |
| 1:54.7 | learning how to embrace the other people that are supporting you, and also working on your |
| 2:00.0 | motivation and your ERP exposure response |
| 2:03.5 | prevention skills. And so there are four categories and there are 12 cards in each category. And it's |
| 2:10.9 | designed for people to pull a card each day and do whatever the card says. Sometimes it's a thought to think about. A lot of |
