196: Feeling Stuck, Panicky, or On Edge? Let’s Talk About It!

This week’s episode is extra special because I’m joined by someone who knows this world really well, both personally and professionally. Mari is not only my podcast editor (so she’s behind the scenes every single week!), but she’s also someone who’s recovered from panic disorder and agoraphobia.

In this episode, Mari and I sit down for a Q&A and answer some of the biggest questions that so many of us have asked while struggling with anxiety, panic, and agoraphobia, like:

  • Why do I freak out when I feel stuck or trapped?
  • Why do I still get panic attacks even though I “know what’s happening”?
  • I’ve tried therapy, breathing, journaling… why isn’t anything helping long-term?
  • I feel like I’m constantly on edge even when nothing is ‘wrong.’ I can't seem to relax. Why do I feel this way?
  • Why does anxiety show up in places I used to feel safe?
  • I hate how small my world has gotten. I used to do so much, and now everything feels like a big deal. Will I ever feel like myself again?

We share personal experiences, practical tools, and lots of validation (because you are so not alone in what you’re going through). And honestly, this conversation is full of hope... because recovery is possible.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, discouraged, or like your world has gotten really small, I know this episode will help you feel seen and remind you that you can move forward in really powerful ways.
