#184 - FOMO Fever: Managing Summer Anxiety and Indecision

All The Hard Things - A podcast by Jenna Overbaugh - Wednesdays

As we wrap up this June, reflecting on previous summers when I was in my haze of OCD and anxiety, I really have much clearer insights into my own struggles with anxiety and indecision and FOMO. In my experience, this is something that's not really often talked about when we talk about OCD and anxiety. I wanted to bring light to it, especially in the summer because it can just exacerbate all of this, right? Especially with social media, we are constantly being bombarded with images and stories of others seemingly living their best lives. And for someone with anxiety, it can create this relentless sense of inadequacy and fear. Today I'm sharing: Understanding Indecision in the Context of OCD and Anxiety The Heightened Impact of FOMO During Summer The Vicious Cycle of Overthinking and Safety Behaviors Feeling Paralyzed With Choices Strategies to Combat Anxiety and Indecision and Embrace the Moment 👏 Unlock your free 40-minute video on "5 Must-Know Strategies for Handling Anxiety and Intrusive Thoughts": ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://jennaoverbaughlpc.com/strategies⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🧠 Start your transformation today with the Mental Compulsion Mini Course referenced in this episode: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://jennaoverbaughlpc.com/mental-compulsions⁠⁠⁠⁠ đŸ’Ș Ready to conquer OCD/anxiety?
