Do you often find yourself caught in the clutches of anxiety, unsure of how to navigate the many faces it wears? What if you had an expert's perspective to help you understand and deal with anxiety in all its monstrous manifestations? This week, renowned double board-certified American psychiatrist Dr. Hernandez shares his professional insights and personal experiences with anxiety in its various forms. Together, we dissect this 'monster of 3,000 heads,' shedding light on its normalcy as a protective emotion and the distress it can cause when left unchecked.

Dr. Hernandez draws from his extensive career to provide examples of the physical symptoms of anxiety, which often mimic cardiac problems, leading individuals to believe they're having heart attacks in the midst of severe panic episodes. He also discusses the vital role of medication in managing anxiety, as well as how situational anxiety can be dealt with in a more natural manner.
