#AnxiousAF

Published: Aug. 19, 2019, 3 p.m.

On episode 11 we get right to the point: Anxiety sucks. Whether you\u2019re overthinking that email you wrote in response to your boss or thinking about what might happen at dinner with your new dude you met on Bumble; you get the whole anxiety thing. Ever feel like you\u2019re falling and it won\u2019t stop? Do you feel like you\u2019re overwhelmed AF by everything and nothing at the same time? Are you always on edge? Why the F won\u2019t my brain stop going and going? When you\u2019re finally \u201crelaxed\u201d and then you acknowledge the fact that you aren\u2019t anxious in that moment, so now you\u2019re anxious #FML. If you can relate way too much to all of this tune in today\u2019s episode. We have Andrea Kotler, an OG BCBA, here to talk with us about #anxiety and the behavioral principles behind it.
