Ok so you killed this one. I love the concept of just allowing it without resistance. Not everything requires a fight or challenge and in the case of anxiety this is so liberating. Thx!

Allowing yes I’ve dealt with both actually sitting in conversation with other’s and anxiety pops in I have the oh moment but then continue on with the conversation as I am the one talking or listening I make sure I’m in the moment and not froze from anxiety, now driving when it happens I’m trying to be more mindful of how I react after realizing it’s just anxiety and I’m okay. I tend to compare what I’m doing to one of my goals I’ve met like I did this big thing I didn’t die or go crazy while or after doing it I’m okay and I’ll always be okay after that moment clicks I continue on with what I’m doing and can actually do other things after completing my tasks for the day. It gives me more motivation for the next day and so on. I hope I’m doing that right by comparing even though like you said it’s not the distance or place I go to I’m capable of doing anything.

Great podcast! So well articulated! I struggle with this issue all day, every day, since the panic waxes and wanes constantly. It's totally exhausting. At times, I do sit on my couch and wait for the panic to subside, and I am just now learning how to continue an activity when I am terrified. Thank you, Drew, for validating my actions and helping me to keep going. Rachel LaFleur
