186: What If I Never Get Better? Answering the Hardest Questions About Anxiety Recovery

In this heartfelt and powerful Q&A episode, I’m joined by Annie—one of my former students and a regular voice on the podcast—to dive into the hardest questions that come up during anxiety recovery.

If you've ever wondered, What if I never get better? or felt stuck despite doing all the “right” things, this episode is for you. We talk about the fears, doubts, setbacks, and emotional heaviness that can show up in recovery—and most importantly, what it actually looks like to move through them.

We Answer These 10 Common Questions in This Episode:

  1. What if I never get better? What if I never feel normal again?
  2. What if I’m doing all the right things but still not seeing progress?
  3. Is it normal to feel like I’m getting worse before I get better?
  4. Is there a point where I should just accept that this is my life now?
  5. How do I stop comparing my journey to others who seem further along?
  6. How long does recovery actually take?
  7. What were the signs that you were truly getting better?
  8. Did you ever feel like giving up on recovery? If so, what kept you going?
  9. What helped you believe that recovery was possible when you didn’t feel it?
  10. Is full recovery really possible or will I always have some anxiety?

Whether you’re in the thick of anxiety, panic disorder, or agoraphobia, this episode will offer reassurance, validation, and some gentle encouragement to keep going. You are not alone, and recovery is possible—even if you don’t fully believe it yet.
