The husband overcomes anxiety by taking deep breaths and reminding himself of his strengths. He also reminds himself of past successes and reminds himself of the importance of standing up for oneself.

I'm proud of myself, I managed to overcome my anxiety last night.
gpt
That's amazing! How did you do it?
human
I took deep breaths and told myself that I am strong and capable of handling whatever comes my way.
gpt
That's a great mindset to have, it's important to remind ourselves of our strengths.
human
Yes, and I also reminded myself that I have overcome anxiety before. It gave me the confidence to take the first step towards my goal.
gpt
That's a great way to approach it. I remember when you were feeling insecure a few years ago, you tried to be extra nice to everyone. Has that changed?
human
Yes, I realized that I don't want to live my life feeling like a doormat. It's important to be kind, but I also need to stand up for myself.
gpt
That's a good point. Speaking of being kind, I remember a few weeks ago when we went out and you said I looked lovely. It made me feel really special.
human
Of course, you always look beautiful to me. But sometimes a simple compliment can make all the difference.
gpt
It certainly does. Speaking of simple things, do you remember when you went to the grocery store and they were all out of apples?
human
Yeah, I was feeling pretty discouraged that day.
gpt
I'm sorry you had to go through that. But hey, you managed to overcome a different challenge last night, you should be proud of yourself!
human
Thanks, I am. It just goes to show that sometimes the smallest victories can make the biggest difference.
