Until you have evidence that something really is wrong, then you can choose to worry about what might happen, or you could just keep doing what you're doing, and if it happens, then deal with it.

In this episode of 'The Anxious Truth', Drew Linsalata and Billy dive into the nitty-gritty of anxiety and panic attacks by answering some of the most common questions from their listeners.

From there, the duo tackles various questions that many people dealing with anxiety have asked.
