Greetings!

Post by anxietycarousel »

Hello everyone!

I have listened to the podcast for about a year now, and it has been a crucial part of my morning and evening commutes (at least 1 hour each way). I am incredibly grateful to Paul, his fantastic guests, and wonderful listeners like you.

My issues, primarily OCD and anxiety, have been a life-long challenge for me, but I wasn't diagnosed until my early 20s. Rituals, counting, guilt, and much, much more - for only 1 easy payment of my sanity! My hobbies include watching Netflix, playing my ukulele, obsessing over all the ways I can and will let down and/or alienate everyone I love most, and legos. :-)

I can't wait to share with all of you!

Welcome, anxietycarousel!
I like your name. It reminds me of an illustration by Ellen Forney in her graphic novel "Marbles". She uses riders on carousel horses to show the different types of depression.

I'm sorry that you suffer from anxiety, but since you do, glad you've found the podcast and forum!
