Examining the Relationship Between Anxiety and Grief (Episode 062)
Listen now
Description
How does one approach recovery from chronic or disordered anxiety when grief is part of the picture? Do the same principles apply? Do we use concepts like acceptance, surrender, or willful tolerance when handling grief? Grief is a powerful thing that will almost certainly impact not just anxiety recovery but all aspects of life and even daily functioning at times. In this episode Josh and Drew explore the relationship between anxiety, anxiety recovery, grief, and the grieving process. This can get complicated and as always there are subtle details and nuances so tune in. We hope you find this episode helpful. ---- Struggling with worry and rumination that you feel you can't stop or control?
