Have you ever felt yourself spiraling and couldn’t stop it?

One anxious thought turns into five. Your body tenses. Your brain starts scanning for what’s wrong, even if nothing obvious is happening. And before you know it, you’re not just anxious – you’re anxious about being anxious.

That spiral doesn’t usually start with something huge. It’s a moment, a shift, a single sensation you didn’t expect. What happens next feels automatic. But it’s not random.

This episode explains why that spiral kicks in so fast – and what fuels it, even when you think you're handling it “the right way.”

It’s easy to think the spiral comes out of nowhere. This episode isn’t about stopping the spiral instantly. It’s about understanding what sets it off – and learning a way to catch it before it pulls you all the way in.
