What is the key to treating generalized anxiety disorder with Morita therapy?

  Morita therapy is a psychological treatment method based on the principle of “let nature take its course and do what is necessary. Morita believes that anyone can have symptoms of neurosis under certain conditions. For example, if you are nervous about appearing in front of people for the first time, or if you hear about a gas poisoning incident, you feel that the gas valve in your house is not closed properly and you cannot rest assured until you check it again and again. For most people, this feeling of nervousness and anxiety is a normal part of life, and is a normal psychological and physiological phenomenon that will disappear after the event. However, some people with special personalities will regard these normal reactions as pathological and try desperately to eliminate them, resulting in a pathological fixation of this feeling of uneasiness, which affects their normal life and forms neuroticism.  How to treat patients with generalized anxiety disorder using Morita therapy?  The first step is to help patients understand what kind of disorder generalized anxiety disorder is and how its symptoms occur. Clarifying the nature of generalized anxiety disorder is extremely important for treatment. Some patients get better quickly once they understand the nature of their symptoms.  Morita therapy does not use any apparatus or special facilities and advocates living like a normal person in real life.  In essence, the patient is guided to actively use the “desire to live” as a motivating force in daily life, and to produce therapeutic results through the non-verbal experience of the body. Patients should see their tension as a “natural” thing to be actively faced, fully accepted, repeatedly experienced, and constantly corrected, so as to reduce and even break the vicious cycle of pathology, and eventually achieve recovery.
