ANXIETY VS. WORRY - HOW TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE

 Modern Mommy Doc

CATEGORY: Website Editor

Kate Borsato wears a few hats: a proud mom, a partner, a writer, and a therapist with a focus on maternal mental health. Her focus and passion is supporting moms to get rid of what is weighing them down so they can live their best lives possible.


We’re talking about something that is so common among moms, but that is not talked about nearly enough: anxiety and intrusive thoughts.


Kate is sharing what anxiety can feel like, the first step to begin to feel better, and most importantly, why you shouldn’t feel embarrassed if you’re struggling with anxiety.


We’re also talking about a common symptom of anxiety: intrusive thoughts - what they are, when they’re most likely to show up, and the different categories that they tend to fall into.


If you find yourself struggling with anxiety, or you’re just looking for some validation that you’re not alone, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
