Note sull'episodio
If you feel stuck in chronic anxiety, fear, sensitization, OCD loops, or nervous system dysregulation, this conversation will change how you understand healing.
In this powerful and deeply validating episode, Simona Irwin explains why trying to fix anxiety can actually keep you trapped — and how Befriending Fear becomes the doorway to real nervous system healing. If you’ve been stuck in sensitization, adrenaline surges, intrusive thoughts, chronic symptoms, or health anxiety, learning Befriending Fear can be a turning point.
Many people living with anxiety, trauma, chronic fatigue, insomnia, intrusive thoughts, or physical symptoms are unknowingly stuck in a fix-it, figure-it-out loop. That loop fuels adrenaline, keeps the nervous system sensitized, and reinforces fear instead of safety. Befriending Fear breaks that loop by building education, acceptance, and trust — so your body can finally feel safe again.
Befriending Fear offers a radically different path — one rooted in education, acceptance, nervous system regulation, and the body’s wisdom. This episode is for anyone who wants Befriending Fear tools for anxiety recovery, sensitization recovery, and nervous system healing.

- Why fixing anxiety makes symptoms worse

- How OCD, intrusive thoughts, and health anxiety form loops
