"All those fears and triggers are really indicative of just one fear."
Curious about how others navigate their sobriety journey? This episode of 'The Anxious Truth' takes a deep dive into the nature of anxiety disorders, with host Drew Linsalata breaking down the misconception that anxiety sufferers have an endless list of fears. Instead, Drew argues, it's just one fear manifesting in various forms. If you've ever found yourself afraid of everything from opening a bottle of medication to being home alone, this episode offers a refreshing perspective.
Drew, a seasoned therapist and former anxiety sufferer, shares his insights on how these fears are really just different triggers leading back to the same core fear: the fear of how you feel. With his characteristic blend of empathy and expertise, Drew offers hope and practical advice for those struggling with anxiety disorders.
You'll learn about the importance of accepting and experiencing your feelings rather than trying to control them, which is key to overcoming the fear that fuels anxiety disorders. This episode is a must-listen for anyone dealing with anxiety or those supporting someone who is. So, are you ready to tackle that one fear and change your relationship with anxiety?
