I searched the sub and I've seen some discussion of EFT, but no reference to this study. EFT is one of those things that makes no sense to me -- but its apparent efficacy is unbelievably solid. So I thought I'd bring up the study and see what you guys think about it? 

Here's the part that really boggled my mind: 

&gt;EFT has been extensively investigated for anxiety and depression. In the first large-scale study of 5000 patients seeking treatment for anxiety across 11 clinics over a 5.5-year period, patients received either traditional anxiety treatment in the form of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), with medication if needed, or acupoint tapping with no medication.[26](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6381429/#bibr26-2515690X18823691) **An improvement was found in 90% of patients who received acupoint tapping therapy compared to 63% of the CBT participants.** 

(That study is in a book that I don't have access to, but it cited in this study which has some other incredible results). 

Have you tried it? What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance 

(Note: I no longer have any anxiety -- no thanks to EFT which I just discovered, so I can't test this out on myself).
