71 episodes - English - Latest episode: 7 days ago - ★★★★★ - 171 ratings

I am an anxious doctor. Or at least I WAS an anxious doctor. After literally decades of suffering from intractable anxiety, and seeing over 50 different types of healers I found my way to heal my anxiety through very unconventional (for a medical doctor at least) means.

In 2013 I was so anxious I considered suicide and a friend suggested I try LSD, and although that scared the crap out of me it showed me the path to healing. You don't have to do LSD to heal, I took it for you! I'm a medical doctor, neuroscientist and intuitive. (I know, common combination!)

I found my way out and it is counterintuitive and very non conventional (but not scary!).

I will show you the way out too, you just have to listen to me, dammit!

Wholeness Within: Healing Anxiety by Reconnecting with Our Past

February 26, 2024 11:00 - 17 minutes - 16.4 MB

Welcome to the AnxietyRx podcast. Today, I want to explore how trauma becomes entrenched in our bodies, forming the basis of an ongoing cycle of anxiety. My theory suggests that trauma isn't just a mental construct; it's physically stored in our bodies, perpetuating what I call the "alarm anxiety cycle." Contrary to common belief, anxiety isn't just a mental issue; it's rooted in unresolved trauma. True healing requires reconnecting with our younger selves, acknowledging and resolving the s...

The Power of Faith in Trauma Recovery

December 10, 2023 15:37 - 22 minutes - 20.2 MB

In this thought-provoking podcast episode, I dive deep into the impact of faith and trauma in our lives. Childhood trauma often shakes our faith in the world, burdening us with a belief that everything relies on our shoulders, especially for sensitive individuals.

I discuss the tendency to lose our authentic selves while trying to protect others, even if those we protect are negative influences, while introduci...

The Inner Critic: Exploring JABS in Anxiety

November 20, 2023 13:24 - 21 minutes - 20.1 MB

In this episode, I want to introduce you to an acronym I've created called JABS: Judgment, Abandonment, Blame, and Shame, primarily directed inward. These emotional punches not only impact us but reverberate through our relationships and daily lives. Anxiety often has roots in unresolved childhood trauma stored in our bodies, not just our thoughts. Self-judgment can activate a cycle of self-criticism, hindering our nervous system regulation. Healing begins with self-awareness. Recognizing...

Welcome back to another episode! In my most vulnerable moments, battling with the crippling grip of anxiety, the thought haunted me: "Is this it? Is this life?".

Navigating the Inability to Receive

October 29, 2023 14:13 - 28 minutes - 25.9 MB

In today's episode, I share an intimate reflection on my own journey through understanding my avoidant attachment style, the challenges of truly connecting, and the pervading sense of loneliness that can shadow success.

Anxiety Simplified: The Real Reason You Feel Anxious

October 16, 2023 12:45 - 11 minutes - 10.7 MB

Welcome to another episode of the AnxietyRx podcast. Today I dive into the roots of anxiety. Dr. Gordon Neufeld once said, "All anxiety is separation anxiety," and I couldn't agree more. Anxiety often comes from two key separations. First, there's the disconnect between our mind and body. When we get stuck in our heads, we lose touch with our bodies and the calming sensations of the present moment. The second separation is between our adult and child selves. The adult might avoid the chil...

Throughout my journey as a medical doctor, I've had the responsibility of prescribing anxiety medications to many.

Join me in this weeks episode as I delve into the intricate world of anxiety meds, aiming to educate and enlighten. Thank you for listening and you...

Why Your MD Can’t Heal Your Trauma

August 20, 2023 08:27 - 25 minutes - 22.9 MB

Healing Anxiety: Embracing the Alarm

July 25, 2023 12:31 - 22 minutes - 20.8 MB

In this episode, we explore the profound connection between anxious thoughts and the ALARM sensation stored in our bodies since childhood. Surprisingly, that very ALARM sensation is your inner child or younger self. When we feel this alarm, our instinct is to go into our heads and worry – a coping mechanism from our childhood that only intensifies our anxiety as adults. To heal, you must find the alarm (and therefore your younger self) in your body and STAY with it WITHOUT reflexively goi...

Breaking the Silence: Exploring Hidden Trauma in ”Good” Childhoods

July 17, 2023 14:59 - 25 minutes - 23.3 MB

Many people I encounter express that their childhoods were positive, yet they continue to experience trauma. There are a couple of reasons why this might occur. Firstly, some people may have difficulty recognizing the presence of their own trauma. It can be challenging to acknowledge and process the painful experiences from our pasts. Secondly, individuals might not have been aware that they experienced a significant separation from their parent(s) during their formative years. Alternativ...

On this Father's Day 2023 I talk about my father and the role his mental illness played in my own anxiety and how he is a driving force in my desire to help others with emotional pain. I talk about the role of our parents and how we tend to look at our mother and father in a one dimensional way that keeps us trapped in our own emotional dysregulation, and how we can begin to expand our subjective perception of our parents to help us heal.  Thank you for listening and you can find me on IG:...

Embracing Innocence: The Path To Healing Anxiety

June 11, 2023 11:21 - 21 minutes - 19.8 MB

Developmental psychologist Dr. Gordon Neufeld says that "All anxiety is separation anxiety", and I add that it's fundamentally a separation from within yourself. Stress and trauma in childhood that is not resolved by a loving, attuned parent or caregiver slowly splits us from the inside into a REACTIVE and an AUTHENTIC self. Like splitting the atom, this separation within ourselves creates a tremendous amount of energy that becomes stored in our system in a form I call ALARM. You can't he...

How Responsible Are You For Others Emotions?

April 30, 2023 14:13 - 24 minutes - 22.2 MB

Many people with anxiety and alarm have a common trait of feeling overly responsible for the emotions of others. As someone who has experienced this myself, I know it can stem from childhood experiences where we felt the need to take care of our parents. It is a very anxiety provoking situation to be in control of YOUR OWN EMOTIONS let alone those of your parents, partners and children.   In this episode, I want to draw attention to how you leave your own emotional needs to automatically a...

Orienting To Pleasure For Growth

April 23, 2023 13:51 - 18 minutes - 17.3 MB

When we have trauma as children our nervous system often learns that life is about avoiding pain as opposed to attending to pleasure. In other words, we adopt an unconscious strategy of chronically seeking survival instead of enjoying our growth. As we grow up, automatically, unconsciously and reflexively attuning to potential threats became a "default setting" in our mind and body that keeps us trapped in anxiety and alarm. We must first be aware of this unconscious default setting to pa...

Rising Above Anxiety: Breaking Free From VICTIM MENTALITY

March 26, 2023 16:52 - 23 minutes - 21.2 MB

I've never met ANYONE who suffered from chronic anxiety and didn't see themselves as a victim, including and especially ME. For the most part, anxious people were victims of trauma or unresolved emotional pain and our nervous system was trained to be on defense, which will never allow us to heal from anxiety. To heal, we must see our victim mentality and go TOWARDS our fears and not retreat from it.  Thank you for listening and you can find me on IG here: @theanxietymd if you have any que...

Lastly, I share a bit about my own experience and encourage you to connect with your inner child. Press play now to listen to the full episode. PS. I’m ...

Uncertainty

February 26, 2023 14:16 - 25 minutes - 24.6 MB

In the healing process, I emphasize the importance of awareness and gratitude. T...

Answering Your Anxiety Questions! Part 1

February 12, 2023 10:13 - 37 minutes - 35.4 MB

I answer your anxiety questions in this episode! The following are the questions I answered (in detail): 1. "When is ALARM a good thing and should be paid attention to?" 2. "Is there a way to "unlearn" the bodily feelings of anxiety? After I had my first panic attack my body remembered how it felt and now it goes straight to it when I'm stressed." 3. "How can I tell if I'm having an anxiety attack every time I feel pain or get sick, or if it's a genuine pain and illness?" 4. "What are yo...
