i always feel like i need immediate acknowledgment for whatever i’m stressed about, and lack patience / expect people to cater to my needs to feel better about whatever’s happening. 

i just started the dbt skills workbook this week, hope it will help. trying to embrace the concept of radical acceptance. but of course struggling with adopting a new tool. 

in the meantime…

how do you calm yourself in the moment and accept that you can’t always get what you need at that exact moment? to be ok with waiting however much time it takes for a resolution?
