Why You Feel More Anxious After a Really Good Day
Settled: Nervous System Tools for Anxiety, Burnout & Sleep by Maya Sloane
Episode notes
Everything went right. Nothing is wrong. So why does your body feel like something terrible is about to happen?
This episode unpacks the strange, hidden reason your nervous system can treat a perfectly good day like a threat. A 2008 study from Clinical Neuropsychiatry measured what happened in people's bodies when researchers tried to make them feel safe and cared for. What they found will change how you understand your own anxiety.
