Redefining OK: A New Approach to Anxiety Management
You do not have to feel okay to be okay. By acting even when you don't feel like acting.
Ever wonder if you need to feel OK to actually be OK? In this episode of 'The Anxious Truth', host Drew Linsalata challenges this common misconception. Inspired by a popular Instagram post, Drew spends about 25 minutes unpacking the difference between feeling OK and being OK. He explains how anxiety disorders can trap you in a cycle of constant self-assessment and distorted threat perception.
This episode is a wake-up call to break free from the habit of linking your feelings to your capabilities. Drew's message is clear: you don't have to feel OK to take action and prove to yourself that you are OK. Simple actions like getting out of bed, taking a shower, or going for a walk can help you realize your potential, even on days when you feel less than great.
If you're ready to shift your mindset and take steps towards recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
