Podcasts about living with anxiety

If you've ever felt trapped by anxiety and depression, frustrated with the medical system, or wondered if there's hope beyond traditional treatment, this raw conversation with Rev Sven offers hard-won insights from someone who's navigated childhood trauma, medication dependency, and found his own path to healing. More info, resources & ways to connect - https://www.tacosfallapart.com/podcast-live-show/podcast-guests/rev-svenRev Sven's mental health journey began with childhood trauma that would shape decades of his life. Raised by his grandparents after his parents separated, he struggled with abandonment issues when his mother chose drugs over caring for him. The anger and pain manifested early, and by fifth grade, he was throwing desks into walls.Instead of therapy, his grandmother took him straight to a doctor who prescribed medication. This began a pharmaceutical carousel that lasted into his twenties. Depression became bipolar disorder, then anxiety, then intermittent explosive disorder. Sven cycled through over a dozen medications, often feeling like a zombie rather than himself.The wake-up call came while working as a delivery driver. Despite taking Seroquel the previous evening, he fell asleep at the wheel the next morning, only waking when he hit the rumble strips. That terrifying moment forced a decision: something had to change.Four years ago, Sven made the risky choice to wean himself off medication without medical supervision, something he explicitly doesn't recommend to others. He replaced pharmaceuticals with therapy, alternative approaches including medicinal marijuana and DMT, and most importantly, a supportive community.Streaming became his lifeline. What started as an accidental hobby with a friend evolved into a platform for mental health advocacy. Through his Twitch channel and work with the nonprofit Anime for Humanity, Sven found his tribe... people who understood that gamers, anime fans and other "niche" communities needed mental health resources too.His current coping toolkit is surprisingly simple but effective. When depressive episodes hit, he relies on his wife who lets him cry on her shoulder, friends in the streaming community who provide reality checks and encouragement, and the knowledge that he'll emerge from the darkness. A schnauzer mix puppy has become an unexpected emotional support companion.Sven still battles the same demons. He describes episodes where he feels worthless, convinced everything he does is meaningless and that people won't miss him when he's gone. During these periods, he sleeps excessively and isolates himself. But now he has tools and people to pull him back.His story highlights several critical issues: the overprescription of psychiatric medications to children, the importance of therapy alongside or instead of medication, and the power of community support. Living in rural Oklahoma (a region not known for progressive mental health attitudes) Sven works to break stigma one conversation at a time.The streaming community surprised him with its openness about mental health struggles. Unlike his closed-minded hometown where men aren't supposed to show emotion, online spaces offered acceptance and mutual support. Even his brother, struggling with addiction, now reaches out for help after seeing Sven's transformation.Sven's message is clear: mental illness doesn't make you broken or crazy, you're just wired differently. His journey proves that with the right support system, alternative approaches can work, though he emphasizes working with medical professionals rather than going it alone like he did.From throwing desks to building community, Rev Sven turned his pain into purpose.

When you've been struggling with anxiety, panic disorder, or agoraphobia for a while, it's not just the fear that weighs on you. There are so many heavy emotions that creep in... comparison, grief, anger, hopelessness, shame, isolation, exhaustion, fear of the future, and self-doubt.In this episode, I'm getting really honest about these emotions, how they often show up, and why they're actually a normal part of the recovery journey. I'll share pieces of my own experience and what I hear from my students and clients all the time, so that you can feel seen, validated, and far less alone.I dive into:Why comparison (to your past self or others) can feel so crushing, and how to respond with compassion instead.How grief shows up in anxiety recovery and why acknowledging it is so important.The role of anger, hopelessness, and shame, and why they often signal deeper pain that needs attention.How isolation, exhaustion, and fear of the future make recovery feel even heavier.The truth about self-doubt, and the small but powerful flickers of hope that remind you healing is possible.If you've been carrying any of these emotions, I want you to know you are not broken and you are not failing. These feelings are part of the process, and with support and compassion, recovery is absolutely possible.SIGN UP FOR MY FREE LIVE CLASS - HOW TO BUILD TRUST & SAFETY IN YOURSELF: https://www.ahealthypush.com/trustGET ON THE PANIC TO PEACE WAITING LIST HERE: https://www.ahealthypush.com/live-panic-to-peaceCHECK OUT MY MASTERCLASSES HERE AND START EXPERIENCING LOTS MORE PEACE, JOY, & FREEDOM: https://www.ahealthypush.com/anxiety-classesA HEALTHY PUSH INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/ahealthypush/GET THIS EPISODE'S SHOW NOTES: https://www.ahealthypush.com/post/hidden-emotional-struggles-of-anxiety

Ask me a QHello Bright Minds, I wonder whether you've seen the Netflix hit Buying London with Daniel Daggers and his team of agents at his property firm DDRE? It's a lot of fun and very glamorous and my guest today is one of the team who you won't have seen on screen. I met Serge Cowan on a flight to Nice last September when he was going out to look at a property in Monaco and we got into a deep conversation about his life, including his four children. Serge is a global real estate advisor at DDRE who has sold properties in 27 locations and deals with DDREs international sales. Serge's 16 year old daughter Emily makes an occasional entertaining double act with him on Instagram and there's a link in the show notes.In 2002 Serge set up a property business which he told me he felt like he was married to. His wife worked with him too and alongside their professional life they spent five years trying to have a child. In 2007 along came baby Maddie who was born with cerebral palsy who very sadly passed away in 2017. Maddie's early years also coincided with the recession of 2009-2012 which hammered the business Serge had built. By 2018, a year after Maddie's death he realised the marriage wasn't right and their divorced was finalised in 2024.You're going to hear us talk about:A father's perspective of the strain and emotional difficulty of raising a profoundly disabled child.Battling the SEN system and local education authority for a child with cerebral palsy.His marriage coming to an end and walking away from the business he'd builtSerge's experience of ‘chronic anxiety' Negotiating with French estate agentsI hope you enjoy and extract something useful from my chat with Serge.MORE FOR YOU DM Jessica on instagram @comebackcommuk Get Caremail (free, every other Sunday at 7am) Read Mothers Work!

Living with anxiety and depression is sadly a reality for many people.Life can be challenging for lots of reasons and we can struggle to cope and end up with poor mental health. As a psychologist, this is something that I regularly help my patients deal with. In this episode I speak with Joe Moriarty,  he is a young man that has lived with anxiety and depression.

INSIDE OUT 2 revisits the mind of Riley, a young woman who is finally stepping into her teenage years. Though Riley's emotions have been governed by Joy (Amy Poehler), Sadness (Phyllis Smith), Anger (Lewis Black), Fear (Tony Hale) and Disgust (Liza Lapira), the onset of puberty brings new and confusing additions to the team. With the arrival of Anxiety (Maya Hawke), Envy (Ayo Edibiri), Ennui (Adele Exarchopolous) and Embarrassment (Paul Walter Hauser), Riley's mind becomes a swirling mess of chaos, forcing Joy and the rest to adjust to life in a more complicated world. This week, Seun Olowo-Ake & Daniel Collins join Steve to talk about whether or not anxiety is a villain and growing up with (and without) joy.

Greetings Adult Child Family,In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting in conversation with a truly courageous soul who overcame years of hardship, struggle & abuse in childhood and how she was able to pause and recover from the debilitating symptoms of complex ptsd.Dr. Jeanne was diagnosed with Panic Disorder in 2015 which forced her to reconsider her life path and views on mental illness. Facing a health and soul crisis, she had to make difficult choices. The human rights career she built with a single-minded focus no longer inspired her, and the symptoms of her diagnosis were wreaking havoc on her life. Seeking peace but still craving a challenge - she found it time to speak to her wiring by providing a product to address one of the symptoms of anxiety: Sensitive, dry skin. After completing her Certificate in Advanced Cosmetic Chemistry she released FIGGI Beauty. Tired of toxic positivity and after many setbacks in her own healing journey she created the Anxious Calm. An online learning community for those seeking to peacefully coexist with their anxiety, where its okay Not to be okay, and where we can celebrate the hidden gifts that come with anxious wiring. To contact her, learn about her anxious calm program and receive support from her online community wherever you live in the world, visit: https://www.docjeanne.com/courses/the-breaking & learn more about her amazing skincare line for sensitive skin here: https://www.figgibeauty.com/ To take my reparenting courses & schedule an inner child mentoring session with me, visit my website & book a 15 minute free consultation with me here: https://vandanalighthealing.comPlease like & subscribe to my Vandana Light Healing Youtube channel to help all adult children to suffer less.Blessings,Vandana

ADHD, high functioning anxiety and perfectionist-based procrastination go together like peanut butter, jelly and banana. We're former hard-working, top-of our class, good girls who masked our high functioning anxiety our whole lives, and then we became mothers, and the masks are falling apart. They are WORN OUT. And we just can't keep them together anymore.Today, I'm going to share a story with you about motherhood and anxiety so you can KNOW for sure that there are others out there like you. You're not alone. And either am I. “My other daughter” was originally read on stage at The Boulder Theater for the national show, Listen To Your Mother. Former Chicago-girl, Stacey Hutson, now lives  in Golden with her husband and two still slightly helpless daughters, ages 4 and 6. Stacey wanted to be a mom her whole life. Which is why she was so confused when motherhood was not the rainbows and sunshine she always imagined it would be. Her nervous system was overwhelmed, her house was a disaster, and she couldn't understand why she was so nostalgic for her fun, spontaneous pre-mom life. That's why she created the Mother Plus Podcast with Stephanie Sprenger to give a voice to the too much moms who feel like they are failing at motherhood, and don't want to fail anymore. Stacey discovered LTYM five years ago when she needed it most. She made a promise to herself that night that she would one day be in the show. Four shows later, she has been here every year, pinching herself, alongside the most incredible cast of women.If you're looking for your people -- the ones who get your time blindness, always-late-ness,  obsessive, excited, but easily distracted nature -- then please join us in the ADHD Moms Club. This THURSDAY, May 23rd, we'll be having our first virtual Body Doubling Meetup. Bring your laundry, bring your bills, bring your kids. It's super casual.

LIVING WITH ANXIETY ...I HAVE TO RECOVER SO I CAN LIVE MY LIFE AGAIN!But really, do you?  Or is it better to do your best to re-engage in life so that you can recover? This week we're examining the concept of life AS recovery rather than life as something you get to do only after you've reached some magic state of "recovered".  Yes, at times recovery from an anxiety disorder involves manufactured exposures and doing things that don't look all that much like a regular life, but recovery can be so much more.  We can also intermix life - as best we can - into the recovery process in such a way that we use life activities and experiences to help us practice handling anxiety, fear, uncertainty, and discomfort. Moving through an anxious moment while doing something that feels like life is generally more valuable and will likely lead to a deeper and more durable recovery, so consider living (to the best of your ability today) to recover, even when you're convinced that you're not ready for life.  For full show notes on this episode visithttps://theanxioustruth.com/283To find my books, workshops, social media links, and all the other anxiety and recovery resources I produce, visit my website at theanxioustruth.com.Disclaimer: The Anxious Truth is not therapy or a replacement for therapy. Listening to The Anxious Truth does not create a therapeutic relationship between you and the host or guests of the podcast. Information here is provided for psychoeducational purposes.

In this podcast episode, DARE coaches Michelle Cavanaugh and Aida Beco discussed anxiety and how to deal with it effectively. They emphasized that anxiety is not a problem that needs to be fixed, but rather a normal human experience that can be handled with the right approach. They introduced the concept of "defusion," which involves stepping back from your thoughts and feelings and observing them without judgment. This allows you to accept anxiety as simply a part of your experience, without getting caught up in the struggle to control it.Aida and Michelle also talked about the importance of "internal exposure therapy," which involves exposing yourself to the thoughts and feelings that you fear in a safe and controlled environment. This can help you to learn that these thoughts and feelings are not actually dangerous and that you can tolerate them without experiencing any negative consequences.Overall, this podcast episode offered a helpful and encouraging perspective on anxiety.

A transcript of this episode is available online  • A list of mental health resources is available on our website"Everyone has anxiety and you can't really survive childhood without some anxiety," says psychiatrist Dr. Maureen Nash. "It is, at least theoretically, what prevents us from doing catastrophically negative things like walking off a cliff, or hugging the stove when it's red hot."The fight-or-flight response has its place. We're hard-wired to preserve our overall well-being at the expense of a few anxious moments when we're threatened. But, as Dr. Nash adds, "an anxiety disorder is when you have fight-or-flight gone awry and it is either in excess of what is useful to you or it actually debilitates you."A growing number of young people are showing symptoms of anxiety, in part due to the zeitgeist (consider a future of global warming, longterm economic prospects, and pushback on efforts to foster inclusion and diversity) and nearly continuous stimulus from electronic devices and social media."Trigger after trigger after trigger," says Dr. Robin Henderson, Chief Clinical Officer of WORK2BEWELL, a mental health and wellness program focused on providing mental health resources and education for teens, parents, and educators.  "When we look at increasing rates of anxiety -- we see numbers as high as 40% of females, 36% of males, young adult, high school having some symptoms, if not a full on diagnosis of anxiety -- we see numbers that has to be what we're seeing out of the pandemic and all of those stressors there and what we're seeing in social media and, candidly, what we're seeing in the political environment, not limited to climate change, politics, racism, and all of those things. It's a very stimulating world."But there's hope. There are ways to cope with anxiety even to treat it as one's "superpower."  Today's episode also includes conversations with two college students who not only live with anxiety, but who are working to help others cope with the stressors they face in the world today. And they share their insights into strategies they use to manage their anxiety. Billie Henderson is a college student in Oregon and Dominic Brown attends college in Southern California. Both have worked to help other young people through WORK2BEWELL..RESOURCESNeed to talk now?  or call 988Anxiety Grounding TechniquesWORK2BEWELL websiteWORK2BEWELL Instagram accountState-by-State Mental Health ResourcesAnxiety Disorders (NAMI)"Hiding in Plain Sight" documentary  PBS | AmazonProvidence ElderPlace..

That idea of "putting on a mask" to hide your pain is something so many of us are familiar with, but when your job requires you to stand in front of a camera and perform at your best day in and day out, that term takes on a whole new meaning.  I'm really excited to share this conversation with all of you today. Today's guest, CTV's Ana Almeida, and I met on a Movember walk back in 2021, and after hearing about her experiences as a person living with Anxiety and how she's used her platform to diminish the stigma that still surrounds mental illness, I knew it was only a matter of time until we got an episode out together. Well, two years later, the time is NOW! During our chat, Ana talks about her relationship with herself and reflected on the impact that Anxiety and her mental health have had on her relationships with friends, family and partners. We talked about how she shared openly about her mental health struggles live on air during Bell Let's Talk Day in 2017 and the amazing impact she saw from the communities she serves after she did so. During a part of the show that will always stand out as being a particularly special moment to have shared, Ana, who immigrated as a youth, talks about her close relationship with her father and how she navigated learning about his cancer diagnosis during a very difficult time in her life. This episode is funny, authentic, and vulnerable; it's everything you'd want from an episode of Life's a Wreck.Check out our ➡️Patreon⬅️Follow Ana:@ana_almedia - IG@anaalmeidaCTV - Twitter Follow the podcast:@lifesawreckpodcast - IG Follow Kyle:@moorzyyy - IGSupport the show

On this week's episode we have Christy Parisi, who is a single mom, special education teacher, blogger, and part-time singer in an emo pop-punk band. As a long time listener of the Badass Basic Bitch podcast, it's Christy's turn to share her personal story of navigating divorce, mental health, recovering from a toxic environment in childhood, being a single mom, setting boundaries, and finding a community of people she trusts.After separating from her ex, Christy moved from a giant four-bedroom colonial to a very modest two-bedroom first floor condo. She was determined to make this chapter of her and her son's lives as comfy and peaceful as possible. She started sharing, on Instagram, all the little ways she was doing just that: painting her kitchen floor, wallpapering, unscrewing the doors off cabinets to give the aesthetic of open shelving. Not consistently feeling at peace when she was growing up, she remembers always thinking, “whatever this is.... I want the opposite of it when I have my own home.” She feels that it is incredibly important for your home to be your safe haven. A place where you can decompress from the demands and ups and downs that is everyday life. She always wants her son to feel safe at home. She wants him to grow up knowing stability and consistency. She also hopes to teach him, and remind herself, that self care is never selfish. It's ok to take breaks and recharge. It's ok to say, “no,” and not to overcommit yourself. She has found that setting boundaries and leaving time for herself whenever possible allows her to be the best version of herself for not only her, but her friends, family, and little boy.Connect with Christy!Christy's Instagram: @our.comfy.abodeConnect with us!Brianna's Instagram: @mombossinaustinPodcast Instagram: @badassbasicbitch
