Welcome to the Libsyn version of the Anxiety Road Podcast, this is the involuntary journey finding medical, behavioral health, meditation, relaxation and x=the unknown treatment options and resources for people that have anxiety, panic attacks and phobias too.
There is a lot of craptastical thinking about therapy.
Everything from religion is therapy to “put this device on your
wrist and use our app and bingo-bango, you are cured.
Fear and confusion running amuck, and that is mainly from the
people who don’t have the medical form of an anxiety condition or
disorder giving advice.
An episode or so ago I wrote about the treatment option of
medication. The choice and responsibility of using it or not using
medication.
In this episode a look at what is therapy and some of the
resources available.
