When the Anxiety is Anxietying-ep35

Listen in for today’s answer from Instagram follower @claires_digitaldiary: “How to manage school & chronic illness?”



Anxiety can’t be the biggest emotion when gratitude is the biggest emotion ~ Sarah Reid


In today’s episode I’m talking about how I manage the anxiety that comes along with having multiple chronic illnesses. Wherever you are in your journey, I hope you’ll find some takeaways that will be helpful for you.

** If you’re dealing with anxiety that is debilitating, please reach out to a trusted doctor. There are resources like counseling, therapy, medicines, and supplements available that can be helpful. You’re not alone. 

As mentioned in today’s Q & A, here are links for Facebook pages that can offer support as well as great info for 504 plans and other resources to help with school:

  1. Teens & P.O.T.S. Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome

  2. Dysautonomia International-Teen Support Group

  3. Thanks for listening!

    ** If you have a burning question you want me to answer in a future episode, feel free to dm me on my Instagram @be_potsitive!

    I’d love to hear from you! Connect with me on Instagram @be_potsitive and check out the earrings I’ve been making when my body cooperates: Be POTSitive Creations on Facebook.  And there’s chronic illness merch on Redbubble where you’ll find lots of cute items to make you smile and raise awareness for our community.
