| 0:00.0 | I welcome you all to this episode of the Anxiety Guy podcast, my friends, where we explore the |
| 0:09.3 | anxious human experience, we explore our struggles, our triumphs, and everything in between. |
| 0:17.7 | I'm your host Dennis Simsec, and today I want to talk about something that many of us face |
| 0:23.6 | but often don't talk enough about the weight of anxiety. |
| 0:29.6 | Specifically, I want to talk about what anxiety feels like and how sometimes it's not |
| 0:36.6 | just something we have, but something we carry. |
| 0:41.4 | Let's dive in. |
| 0:48.3 | Welcome to the Anxiety Guy podcast where we delve deep into the heart of anxiety, providing you with the tools, insights, and inspiration to reclaim your life from the grips of fear and uncertainty. |

| 2:31.7 | it gets. Now think about what happens when a sponge gets saturated. It can no longer |
| 2:40.8 | soak up anything else without spilling over. It becomes weighed down and the simple act of carrying |
| 2:50.1 | it becomes exhausting. |
