Decoding Anxiety: Insights from Dr. Steve Ilardi and Hew James

Emotional pain, like physical pain, is there for a reason. But if we get a signal of pain and it's not referencing anything real now, it's simply pure suffering, an unneeded, unwanted, unnecessary suffering.
Why does anxiety seem to have a grip on so many of us? In this episode of 'Breaking Free from Depression', Dr. Steve Ilardi and Hew James tackle this pressing question head-on. Anxiety, now the most common mental health disorder globally, remains shrouded in misconceptions. Dr. Ilardi, a seasoned clinical researcher, and Hew James, who has battled his own demons of addiction and depression, team up to demystify anxiety's origins and impacts.
They break down why humans get anxious, whether it can ever be beneficial, and how we can accurately diagnose it. The duo also delves into the root causes of anxiety and how these inform effective treatment strategies. Dr. Ilardi stresses that while medication can offer some relief, it's not a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, he advocates for a holistic approach that includes lifestyle changes to truly tackle anxiety.
Hew James adds a personal touch by sharing his journey and how shifting his mindset played a crucial role in his recovery. This episode is packed with practical tips and heartfelt stories, making it a must-listen for anyone grappling with anxiety or supporting someone who is. Tune in to understand more about anxiety and discover actionable steps to regain control over your life.
