You're fine. you're succeeding. you're exhausted. The psychology of high-functioning anxiety
About this episode
Dr. Judy Ho discusses high-functioning anxiety, its characteristics, and evidence-based tools for treatment.
562. You're hitting your goals. You're showing up. You're making it look easy. And you haven't had a full night's sleep in months. High-functioning anxiety is one of the most common — and most invisible — experiences in modern adult life. This week, Dr. Judy Ho unpacks what it actually is (and what it isn't), why the people who have it are often the last to get help, and three evidence-based tools to start treating the root rather than just managing the output.
