When Grief Meets Anxiety

Anxiety is one of those grief experiences that is incredibly common and yet often catches people off guard. If you experienced difficult levels of anxiety before a loss, it can feel worse than ever as you navigate grief. And even if you never struggled with managing anxiety before, your loss can bring it up. In this episode we talk about the relationship between grief and anxiety, some common reasons for it, and offer some suggestions on how to manage it.  Here are the two of the anxiety workbooks we mentioned: Anxiety and Phobia Workbook Get Out of Your Mind and Into Your Life We don't have ads or a patreon.
