About this episode
The episode addresses common questions about anxiety, including intrusive thoughts and coping strategies.
In this month's Healing Questions episode, we're answering some of the most common questions from our amazing community. From intrusive thoughts and health anxiety to that terrifying feeling of impending doom, we're having the honest conversations we wish more people would have about anxiety and recovery. In this episode, we discuss: • Do intrusive thoughts ever truly go away?• What should you do when a doctor dismisses your concerns or attributes everything to anxiety?• Have we struggled with anxiety our entire lives?• Why does anxiety sometimes create a feeling that death is near or something terrible is about to happen?• What can you do when none of your usual coping tools seem to be helping?• How do you stop your mind from immediately jumping to the worst-case scenario? Whether you're in the middle of a difficult season or simply looking for reassurance and practical tools, we hope this conversation reminds you that you're not alone and that healing is possible.
