When struggling to overcome chronic and disordered states of anxiety, acceptance-based strategies

are superior to control and management-based strategies.

But don't take my word for it, a large number of your peers seem to agree.

So we're going to talk about that this week on The Anxious Truth.

Hello, everybody. Welcome back to The Anxious Truth. This is episode 314 of the podcast. We are recording in March of 2025 in case you are watching or listening in the future. This week on The Anxious Truth, we're going to talk about the difference between acceptance-based strategies and control-slash-management-based strategies when we're dealing with chronic

and disorder states of anxiety. So stick around for that. If you're new to the anxious truth,

this is the podcast where we talk about all things anxiety, anxiety disorders, and anxiety recovery.

I am Drew Linzalata, creator and host of this fine podcast, or I hope it's a fine podcast,

or this YouTube channel, depending on where you're

consuming. I am as of March of 2025 a pre-licensed therapist practicing under clinical supervision

specializing in the treatment of anxiety and anxiety disorders. I'm a three-time author on this topic.

I am a podcaster, not only hosting The Anxious Truth, but also co-hosting Disordered with my buddy

Josh Fletcher.

I am a past sufferer of these very same problems that I talk about for many, many years of my life,

but much better now, completely recovered for many, many years now as well.

Psychoeducator and advocate, social media guy, and I am going to try to help as best I can

within a one-to-m many helping model of either a podcast

episode or a YouTube video.

If you're new to the anxious truth and you just stumbled upon us today, I hope you find

what you find here helpful or useful or applicable in some way.

Of course, if you're a returning listener or viewer, thanks.

I appreciate you stopping by and hanging out for another 20 minutes or so, whatever we're going to do today.
