Many, if not all of us, know of someone \u2014 are ARE someone \u2014 who has dealt with the devastating effects of anxiety and depression.
\nMethods for dealing with these issues can be very charged. It\u2019s a subject that\u2019s often difficult to discuss, for a variety of reasons \u2014 shame, guilt, anger, frustration, despair.
\nBut they are subjects that NEED to be addressed \u2014 least of all because it\u2019s becoming a crisis for youth and adults today. And what those who are struggling need most are advice and strategies that ACTUALLY work \u2014 and, as you\u2019ll learn in this episode, more often than not, it does NOT include medication. The research is becoming VERY clear that most people on anti-depressants are still depressed. Medication is simply not the savior many hoped it would be.
\nThe truth is that the greatest limiting factor to overcoming anxiety and depression are your own limiting beliefs and erroneous or outdated conclusions about this topic. What you don\u2019t know \u2014 and what you think you know that\u2019s just not true \u2014 are hurting you.
\nAfter decades of research, studying, and multiple-lifetimes of experience \u2014 including our work with thousands of youth and families across five continents \u2014 we have come to some very solid conclusions about anxiety and depression \u2014 what causes it, how to prevent it, and how to overcome it FOR GOOD.
\nWe guaran-dang-tee that some of what we discuss in this episode will NOT be popular. But it is scientifically, biologically, and psychologically-based and will WORK for the vast majority of people \u2014 97% or more \u2014 so it\u2019s worth considering.
