  • 1113: The Worst Thing About Anxiety: Believing Every Thought
    Feb 5 2025
    In today's episode, Gina covers a common tendency in individuals suffering with anxiety: the tendency to believe even the most outlandish, negative thoughts. An easy to implement key to anxiety recovery is realizing so many of the thoughts our anxiety driven monkey-mind throws at us are not true. Becoming more directive in our thinking, that is thinking thoughts we want to think and that make us feel better and stronger, can help lessen the burden our anxiety causes us and even starve it of some of its most potent fuel.

They are the passing weather of your soul. -Rainer Maria Rilke Chapters 0:42 Introduction to Anxiety 5:57 The Power of Thoughts 10:01 Key Takeaways from the Book 14:02 Practical Steps for Managing Anxiety Summary In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, I delve into a critical aspect of anxiety: the tendency to believe every thought we experience. This inclination can significantly exacerbate anxiety, as our minds often produce distorted and exaggerated thoughts that feel undeniably real, even when they are far from the truth. I explore the implications of accepting these thoughts without scrutiny and how they reinforce our fear-based reactions, intensifying our anxiety over time. Anxiety thrives on worst-case scenarios, which often leads us into a fear loop—a cycle where anxious thoughts trigger a physical stress response, such as a racing heart or sweaty palms. This physiological reaction can further convince us that there is a real threat we must address right away, only serving to perpetuate the anxiety loop. I discuss how our brains tend to seek evidence that supports these anxious thoughts, a phenomenon known as confirmation bias, which limits our perception and keeps us entrenched in our fears. #Anxiety, #CBT, #Mindfulness, #MentalHealth, #StressManagement, #EmotionalRegulation, #SelfAwareness, #SelfReflection, #PersonalGrowth, #EmotionalIntelligence, #MindfulnessPractices, #PresentMoment, #Overthinking, #Worry, #Fear, #SelfDoubt, #ChallengingBeliefs, #DontBelieveEverythingYouThink, #JosephNguyen Learn more about your ad choices.

Quote: And now that you don't have to be perfect, you can be good. - John Steinbeck Chapters 0:04 Introduction to High-Functioning Anxiety 1:39 Understanding High-Functioning Anxiety 7:01 Positive Traits of High-Functioning Anxiety 8:12 Negative Traits of High-Functioning Anxiety 13:36 Living with High-Functioning Anxiety 16:19 Conclusion and Reflection Summary In this episode, I delve into the intricacies of high-functioning anxiety, a term that resonates with many yet remains under-acknowledged in mental health conversations. It's not classified as a formal diagnosis in the DSM-5, but it encapsulates the experience of individuals who appear to lead fulfilling lives while grappling with persistent anxiety beneath the surface. Drawing inspiration from a recent article that struck a chord with me, I explore the characteristics and behaviors associated with high-functioning anxiety. As I unpack this topic, I encourage listeners to reflect on their own experiences and recognize that high-functioning anxiety can manifest in a multitude of ways. It's common for individuals in this position to feel an internal struggle that contrasts sharply with their outward success. While you may be praised for being organized, punctual, and dependable—traits often associated with a type A personality—there may be a constant undercurrent of anxiety that propels you rather than immobilizes you. I urge you to assess how you truly feel inside, separate from the perceptions others may have of you. Throughout our discussion, I highlight both the positive and negative characteristics associated with high-functioning anxiety. On one hand, the traits can foster a reputation of success and reliability, where outwardly you appear to have it all together. Yet, on the other hand, these very traits may be symptoms of anxiety, driven by fears of inadequacy or the desire to please others. I outline how these conflicting realities can lead to perfectionist tendencies, where success becomes a double-edged sword, offering validation on one hand while masking a deeper sense of unease on the other. #HighFunctioningAnxiety #AnxietyDisorders #MentalHealthAwareness #EmotionalRegulation #StressManagement #Perfectionism #PeoplePleasing #AvoidanceBehaviors #InnerCritic #SelfDoubt #Masking #EmotionalSuppression #Burnout #ImposterSyndrome #SelfCare #Therapy #Mindfulness #GinaRyan #ACP #AnxietyCoachesPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

Power, the lead neuroscientist at Dose Lab and author of the groundbreaking book, "The Dose Effect." Building upon our previous conversation, we dive deep into how different neurochemicals influence our emotions and overall mental health, with a specific emphasis on the prominence of dopamine and the often-overlooked importance of oxytocin. We explore the societal shift towards a dopamine-dominated existence—where instant gratification from success, social media, and other pleasures reigns supreme—at the expense of oxytocin, which fosters connection and intimacy. T.J. highlights how the decline of oxytocin levels correlates with increased feelings of loneliness and anxiety in our increasingly digitally-driven lives. We discuss research illustrating the critical role that physical touch and close-knit relationships play in promoting oxytocin release, stressing how these biological imperatives are becoming neglected in our fast-paced world. #Anxiety #StressManagement #MentalHealth #Neurotransmitters #Dopamine #Oxytocin #Serotonin #Endorphins #Neurochemistry #BrainHealth #EmotionalRegulation #Mindfulness #RelaxationTechniques #SelfCare #Connection #SocialInteraction #PhysicalActivity #Sunlight #Nature #Diet #Sleep #BreathingExercises #PhysiologicalSigh #TheDoseEffect #TJPower #MentalWellbeing #Resilience #ACP #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan Learn more about your ad choices.
