In this episode, I break down why constantly monitoring, analyzing, and trying to “fix” anxiety often keeps the cycle alive — and the shift that finally helps people get free.
If you feel mentally exhausted from always thinking about your anxiety, this episode will change the way you look at recovery.
Welcome to Mental Health Mastery where we talk about how to reduce anxiety and depression dramatically, how to move past a lifestyle of just "coping" with bad mental health, and how to have lasting, daily peace of mind. I share the many lessons learned by going from suicidal to depression and anxiety-free in my own life and what I've learned helping 513 clients reclaim control of their own mental health. We believe you deserve to have significant mental health, and we're excited to help you learn how to have it—hosted by Ty Hicks.
