S1E2 - Let's Talk About Anxiety and Depression

The Geek Fitness Podcast

Season 1 of this podcast is a re-release of the first season of the original Geek Fitness Health Hacks podcast. When switching hosts, the episodes went off iTunes, and they need to exist again. I hope you get something out of them.

We need to talk about mental health. There's too much of a stigma attached to anxiety, depression, and the personality disorders. If any one of us is out of shape physically, we seek outside help for it. We go to the doctor, hire a personal trainer, or pop some ibuprofen or start eating more veggies. But when we are out of shape mentally, there’s a disconnect. What’s the difference in seeking a counselor’s help for anxiety compared to a personal trainer’s help with obesity? Why not use an app to for meditation? You already did for Couch-to-5K. It took me years to finally get help for my anxiety, so I know how hard that can be. I want to share with you some of the strategies I’ve learned regarding self care that have made my life much happier and healthier. *Where You Can Find Me* twitter.com/professorbeej geekfitness.net anchor.fm/geekfitness *Geek to Geek Community* Discord: discord.geektogeekcast.com Slack: slack.geektogeekcast.com Reddit: reddit.com/r/geektogeekcast
