If you could think logically and rationally when you're having a panic attack, I think it would be quite easy to recover.
Feeling overwhelmed by anxiety? You're not alone. In this episode of 'The Anxious Truth', Drew Linsalata teams up with Holly to break down Chapter 7 of Dr. Claire Weekes' classic, 'Hope and Help for Your Nerves'. They dive deep into the concept of 'first fear' and 'second fear'. First fear is that gut-wrenching initial reaction to a symptom, while second fear is the dread that follows, making things worse.
Drew and Holly chat about why it's crucial to focus on how you react to these fears instead of just the symptoms themselves. They also highlight the benefits of exposure therapy and meditation as tools for managing anxiety. The duo doesn’t stop there; they explore how anxiety can take a toll on your physical health and discuss the role of exercise in recovery. Different personality types and their unique ways of dealing with anxiety also get a mention.
If you're grappling with panic attacks, agoraphobia, or any other anxiety issues, this episode offers practical advice and encouragement to help you regain control of your life.
