Podcast description: 

In this powerful episode of The Anxiety Guy Podcast, Dennis dives into one of the most overlooked keys to anxiety recovery—staying in the middle ground. If you're constantly bouncing between emotional highs and lows, racing thoughts, or catastrophic thinking, this episode is for you. Learn how an overstimulated nervous system fuels extremes in thought and perception, and why your healing begins the moment you stop giving priority to those anxiety-driven patterns.

Discover how to regulate your nervous system, find clarity, and reconnect with your true self. Dennis shares practical tools to master the anxious thinker, break free from identity-based fear, and create emotional balance. This is your invitation to respond from truth—not from panic.

Whether you're dealing with health anxiety, panic attacks, or just feeling mentally exhausted from the ups and downs, this episode will guide you back to a steady, grounded place within.
