Taming Anxiety: Real Stories and Practical Tips

Anxiety is a highly treatable condition, but if we leave it unchecked, it can escalate over time.
Ever feel like your worries are running the show? You're not alone. In this episode of 'All In The Mind', you'll hear from a ten-year-old girl and a 30-year-old man as they open up about their struggles with anxiety and the strategies they've found helpful. Host Lynne Malcolm guides the conversation, exploring how anxiety can sometimes be a necessary response to threats, but can also spiral out of control when those threats are just in our heads.
With insights from experts like Dr. Jodi and Peter Leipnick, this episode dives into the impact of our digital lives on anxiety, different types of anxiety disorders, and why it's so important to seek professional help when needed. You'll also pick up some practical techniques for managing anxiety, like breathing exercises and problem-solving skills. Whether you're dealing with anxiety yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable advice and real-life stories that are both relatable and reassuring.
