Overcoming High Functioning Anxiety

High Functioning Anxiety isn’t something just for execs and over-achievers; most of us are operating at this level in our own way, no matter what we do for a living.
How does it show itself?
😰 Constant worry.
😐 Disconnection.
😱 Trying to BE PERFECT!
Today Dr Lalitaa Suglani shares her personal experience and expertise in the subject, and emphases the need to break free from the perfectionist mindset and the need for control that comes with it.
A few quick takeaways from our conversation:
• Be aware of your mindset around the pressure to please others. Do you even KNOW that you’re doing this?
• Do you know how to be supportive of someone who is living like this - at home or at work? Simply listening is a powerful place to start.
• Parents can support their children by creating a safe space for open communication and connection. ‘Sideways’ conversations work best, so go for a walk, bake something, chat in the car, rather than face to face.
• Seeking help, whether through therapy, coaching, self-help resources, or support networks, is crucial for managing high functioning anxiety and promoting self-care.
