Dr. Lucy!

1) THANK YOU so much for this post. I definitely face moment of anxiety, and this post helped me to reframe those. I love the prompt "where is your anxiety on the continuum?". That made me think! (But not *over*think, ha!)

2) What a day maker to see this shout out for my newsletter. I am so happy that Substack connected us. I feel so aligned with your responsible (yet relatable work!), and can't wait to connect with some of your readers!

Have the best week!

Thank you! I think simply acknowledging that to be anxious is to be human, is an enormous help in itself. We have to remove this expectation for all out happiness, growth and resilience.

I think that taking time off work to read this post

is my first step toward recovery. It is so good to know that there is or was another health professional suffering from the same ill. You were also listing symptoms of PTSD here, another good topic to talk about. Thanks Dr. McBride.
