Philadelphia Anxiety therapy using DBT

You’re anxious all. the. time.

You’re tired of the mood swings, panic attacks, racing thoughts, and constant worrying. You’re depressed from all of your stress and anxiety. You’ve been so irritable, that you’ve lashed out on others more times than you’d like to admit. Your body aches almost all the time like you’ve been doing constant CrossFit workouts, and yet you can’t even motivate yourself to go to the gym at all. You wake up feeling on edge and go to bed feeling the same. You’ve been so anxious that you’ve considered ending it all.  

You’re consumed by worry.

You wish you could just make the worrying stop. You fear for the fate of your marriage. You worry that your son won’t graduate college and end up jobless. Your sister simply refuses to do anything to help care for your aging mother. Your friends just went out to dinner and forgot to include you. The never ending thoughts just go on and on.

It’s hard to even think straight.

Your stress is affecting your health.

Sleep is basically a luxury at this point. Most of the time you can’t sleep, laying in bed just causes your mind to spiral. When you do finally fall asleep, you wake up feeling drained and end up sleeping all day.

You are physically exhausted. Your body hurts. You haven’t been to your doctor for a check up in years, nor have you seen the inside of your dentist’s office for quite some time.

Your life is spiraling out of control.

You despise your job and it literally feels painful having to drag yourself into the office, day in and day out, working as a project manager for a company who couldn’t give two sh*ts.

You are desperate for the anxiety and panic to stop.

You know you can’t continue to live like this. Actually, you doubt you’d make it. You’ve been on the verge of a breakdown for months.

You can’t stand it any more.

Last night, unable to sleep, you found yourself doom scrolling the endless “you-just-gotta-be-more-positive”, “lifestyle-type” blogs, and being hopelessly envious of the people who seem to effortlessly have it all together, something caught your eye. What caught your eye seemed different.
