Have you ever been worried about using girls' restrooms?

Clearing Out Your Stress & Anxiety Over Using
The Girl's Restroom, Or The Girls' Locker Room
This powerful Backward8 procedure will neutralize emotional connections you feel
to each frustrating and/or upsetting issue that is causing your unwanted stress and anxieties!

DO THIS FIRST:
Make a list of every feeling of anxiety you feel over using the girls' restroom,
or the girls' locker room.

Don't be afraid to add something to the list if it feels anxious to you.

Please try to be as specific as possible. And just remember....
THERE ARE NO WRONG ANSWERS!!!

Start each statement in your list with the letter – I

I've given you several good examples so you will know exactly what you need to do. You are welcome to use these stressful examples in your list, and add more of your own. These examples are offered to help REMIND you of many different types of common stressful issues.
You SHOULD STILL work through all of these examples even if they do not directly apply to your own situation.

Also, wherever you see a blank spot in a phrase, such as __________, please fill in the blank your own appropriate response – if possible (and if it is applicable).

What makes me feel upset or frustrated over entering and using the girls' restroom
(or locker room)?

I feel so ______ about using the girls' restroom at _______,

I keep feeling worried that I'll be harassed by _______,

I feel like I am not passable enough to _______,

I get so frustrated that I can't use the girls' restrooms whenever I need to,

I get so mad when other people don't take me seriously enough as a girl,

I feel so peeved when I can't find a restroom that I can use,

I feel so left out of ______ as a trans-girl,

I feel so frustrated over being _______ by the other girls,

I get so upset when somebody in the girls' restroom calls me _______,

I feel so upset whenever somebody makes a big deal about me in the girls' room,

I feel upset because I am not allowed to use the girls' locker room at ______,

I get so upset when somebody ridicules me in the girls' restroom,

I sometimes feel so sick of it all that I just want to end it all, forever,

I really wish I had told off that ______ when I had the chance,

I get so mad that I want to hit somebody whenever I _______,

I still feel some of this remaining stress from ________,

Please add more of your own worrisome concerns to this list.

Note:

Whenever you clear out the anxious intensity from the negative aspects of an issue, it can be extremely helpful if you replace that negative issue with an empowering, positive CHOICE statement (a Backward8 Power-Phrase).

And, there is nothing more empowering than making a definitive choice to do something. That is why this next step gives you a positive-choice affirmation immediately following the removal of a negative issue using the special anxiety-clearing exercises in this Backward8 course.

PLUS, this step will help to make it a permanent habit for you to automatically LINK a positive thought to any negative issue, so that whenever something negative happens to you, a positive thought will immediately and automatically pop into your mind – instead of a negative thought!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DO THIS SECOND:

Create Your Backward8 Power-Phrases...

Write "Even though" in front of each of your statements, and
add 87654321 after your statements.

Then, add the following words to the end of your statement:
"I CHOOSE to completely accept all of me as the girl I am!"

For example:

If your statement was...
"I feel so worried about using the girls' restroom."

Your new statement would then become:

"Even though I feel so worried about using the girls' restroom,
87654321
I CHOOSE to completely accept all of me as the girl I am!"

Do that for every issue statement in your list from above.

You are welcome to modify the positive choice Power-Phrases so they are more applicable
to your own specific needs. Just make sure every statement is positive, personal, and in the present tense
(as though it is already happening now).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DO THIS THIRD:

Perform Your Backward8 Procedure

Remember, this works the same way as anything else, the more counting repetitions you do,
the better your results will be! So...KEEP COUNTING!

Procedure
Select a statement from your list above, and mentally visualize (imagine) yourself
feeling the stressful intensity that you WOULD feel if you were actually experiencing
that right now, then repeat each of your complete statements as you have written
them out (including counting backward from 8)!
Keep repeating this process for each issue until you no longer feel any intensity from the issue!

You will gain positive results for some issues much faster than you will for other issues.
So, be patient, and your results will come for you.
Backward8 is a process, NOT an event!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE...
It is very common for other thoughts or emotions to pop into your mind while you are counting.
While you're doing the exercises, you will likely discover all kinds of new, unrealized thoughts
and emotions that may have been buried deep within your subconscious mind for years...
possibly even since your early childhood.

If, at anytime, while you're working through any of the exercises in this Backward8 course,
you notice any other negative thoughts or stressful emotions popping up, even if they do not directly
apply to the particular exercise you're working on at the moment, then you should write them down,
and take some extra time to clear all of those negative issues, as soon as possible! It's THOSE
negative thoughts and emotions that will get in your way as you go forward in your life!
