Ep. 24 - Parental Anxiety: It shouldn't be all hard, all the time.
After Jamie discusses how transformative therapy has been for her OCD in one of our latest episodes, Rachel realizes she's living with paralyzing anxiety around parenting that she thought was part of the gig. Hint hint, it's not!
In this week’s episode, we discuss:
- How undiagnosed and untreated PPA/PPD can still linger years after giving birth.
- The different types of therapies Rachel will be using.
- How decision paralysis goes hand in hand with perfectionism.
- The importance of feeling ALL emotions.
- How we can be good parents without being anxious parents.
While we don’t have any answers or advice in this episode, Rachel does share some experiences that will hopefully make you feel not so alone. If anxiety and depression are leading emotions in your life, please reach out to a specialist. As we're learning, you don’t have to live like this.
