Скачать или смотреть Exploring Anxiety, Panic, and Mental Health with Dr. Ackerman

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Ackerman, a clinical psychologist and specialist in cognitive behavioral therapy, to explore how anxiety, panic, burnout, and stress affect teens and young adults.

We talk about:

• What a panic attack actually feels like and why it can seem life-threatening even though it isn’t
• The difference between normal stress and anxiety disorders like panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and social anxiety
• Why anxiety often leads people to avoid challenges — and how gradual exposure helps rebuild confidence
• What burnout really means and why it’s more than just being tired from work or school
• How social media and screen time can either help or worsen stress depending on how it’s used
• What actually happens during a first therapy session and why therapy is less intimidating than people expect
• Simple science-based techniques like controlled breathing that help regulate anxiety in everyday life
