Lately, you’re just going through the motions. You drag yourself from bed each morning, exhausted from a fitful night of sleep. As you drive to work, you can feel the dread growing – heart pounding, every muscle tensing. By the time you arrive, the anxiety is so overwhelming that you cope by switching on autopilot. So you move through your day in a daze. Eventually, you make it home, collapse on the couch, and try to distract yourself until you have to repeat the same thing the next morning. Something needs to change. Maybe you’ve seen a handful of psychiatrists but you're still struggling. It feels like you’ve tried everything.
