Welcome back!  Today's episode is another great listener request--how we treat deep anxiety in psychotherapy, what is the effect on ourselves and our loved ones of prolonged anxiety, what level of anxiety is normal, how our sense of self and identity is related to anxiety, and more.  And, yes, the Buddha (the first psychotherapist) gets his props too.
