Anticipatory anxiety always seems to make the challenge seem even harder than it already is.
Ever felt that gnawing anxiety before a big event or challenge? You're not alone. In this episode of 'The Anxious Truth', Drew Linsalata sits down with anxiety experts Martin Seif and Sally Winston to unpack the concept of anticipatory anxiety. This is the kind of anxiety that creeps in when you know something nerve-wracking is on the horizon. Seif and Winston, co-authors of 'Overcoming Anticipatory Anxiety', break down what they call the 'fear of fear of fear'.
They dive into how this type of anxiety is intertwined with disorders like generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The discussion is rich with practical advice, focusing on the importance of commitment over avoidance and the role of acceptance in managing these feelings. They explain that while it might be tempting to dodge anxiety-inducing situations, facing them head-on with a committed mindset can be far more effective.
Acceptance, they argue, is key—acknowledging your feelings without trying to force them away. This episode is packed with actionable insights and strategies that could make a real difference for anyone grappling with anxiety. It's a must-listen for those looking to understand and manage their anticipatory anxiety better.
