 If you're struggling with recurring panic attacks, you probably just want to feel better. And nobody would blame you for that, including me. I mean, heck, if I had a way to make you feel better right now, I would 100% give that to you. But since we don't have a magic silver bullet that fixes your panic attacks instantly, we often default to finding our panic attack triggers and then avoiding them at all costs. And at face value, that seems to make some sort of sense because it steers us clear of anxiety and fear and uncertainty and discomfort and all the things that we hate. But in the end, developing avoidant responses to panic attacks and trying to avoid triggers at all costs can and often does backfire. What seems to make sense in a moment actually makes things worse in the long run. So this week on episode 284 of the anxious truth podcast, we're talking about why avoiding panic triggers seems like a good idea, but it kind of isn't. So check it out. You can watch or listen anywhere you like. I hope you find it helpful. See you next time.
