  • Health Anxiety: Learning to Bring the Symptoms Along
    Jul 21 2025

    👉 To go deeper in your healing, explore my full recovery programs at AnxietyGuyPrograms.com

    Podcast description:

    What if healing health anxiety didn’t mean getting rid of every symptom first?

    In today’s episode, I share a powerful mindset shift: learning to bring your anxiety symptoms with you rather than letting them control your life. Whether it’s dizziness, chest tightness, or intrusive thoughts, the goal isn’t to “fix” everything before living again, it’s to begin living with a new relationship to those sensations.

    You'll learn:

    • Why waiting for symptoms to go away can prolong your suffering

    • How to reframe your response to symptoms

    • The difference between avoidance and acceptance

    • Why this shift can be the most liberating part of your healing journey
