The Anxiety Experiment is a podcast for the anxious by the anxious. Join me, your host and guinea pig as I try every trick, tip, and hack in the book for lowering anxiety, reporting back on what works and what doesn't. From meditation to medication (and everything in between), I'll try it all. By chronicling my journey, I hope to help my fellow anxiety sufferers feel less alone and find tools that work - with a few laughs along the way.

    The 5 W's (and an H)

    In the first ever episode of The Anxiety Experiment, Millie goes over the 5 W’s of the podcast: Who, What, Where, When, Why, Will, and How. Yes, there’s an H in there and an extra W, but we’re not going for perfection here, people! We’re trying to calm down! She introduces herself and gives you some background on her anxiety and what you can expect from The Anxiety Experiment. In short, she’s your guinea pig in a science experiment that would probably get you disqualified from the science fair. That “no human subjects” rule is kind of a pain.
