582: How I Manage Anxiety #everydamnday
Last May, as we approached the end of Mental Health Awareness Month, I decided to share my own story around mental health and, specifically, around my diagnoses of PTSD and General Anxiety Disorder.\xa0\nI heard from so many of you who could relate to my story.\xa0\xa0A large number of those of you who reached out to say \u201cme too\u201d also shared that you struggled with the same diagnoses.\xa0\nGiven this feedback, I thought it might be helpful to share what treatment/management modalities have helped me the most since being diagnosed.\nOverall, my diagnoses have given me so much clarity.\xa0\xa0They have solidified who I am in so many ways.\xa0\xa0I really understand why my brain works the way it does and how I can use this in my favor.\xa0\xa0This has been such a huge relief.\xa0\xa0\nAs I share some of my tools in this episode, I cover everything from medication to exercise to calendar management to my precious morning coffee routine.\xa0\xa0Whether or not you share my diagnoses, I think you\u2019ll find some of these tools essential to managing your mental health as we continue to navigate the state of the world.\nIf you have any feedback or need any support, please reach out.\xa0\xa0I would be honored to be a part of your healing journey.\nLinks Mentioned:\n\nJoin our free Hope, Happiness and Mental Health Challenge\n\n\nSMA Ep 544:\xa0My Mental Health Diagnosis\n\n\n\nLearn more about your ad choices.
