Summary

😰 When your body sounds the alarm, you feel out of control, and you can't even identify what triggered it, you may be having a panic attack. In this episode, we’re unpacking panic attacks -- what they are (and aren’t), why they can feel so intense and out of nowhere, and how fear can quietly fuel the cycle. You’ll hear Karissa's personal story, learn how panic connects to your mind, body, and spirit, and walk away with practical tools to steady yourself (or your spouse) in the moment. Resources: Download the free “Lies & Truth” identity statements handout to ground yourself in truth during anxious moments. https://www.dearyoungmarriedcouple.com/Truths-Lies Counseling w/ Adam and Karissa: https://www.dearyoungmarriedcouple.com/counseling Learn more about your ad choices.
