Anxiety Triggers: When The List Is Growing

Many members of our community will find that over time their list of anxiety triggers or panic attack triggers is growing. More and more things become triggers, which starts to get frustrating and disheartening.  Let's talk about why that happens, and what it means in the recovery process.

Important Timestamps:

02:17 - Everything becomes an anxiety trigger when you're in an anxious state

08:08 - If you feel like everything is a possible anxiety trigger, remember this

13:15 - Learning to face fear requires courage and it requires repetition
