I was told: "Take your medication, do your therapy, manage your stress."
I did it all. Every. Single. Thing. For years.
But the anxiety? It never actually left. It just... whispered differently.
Until I realised something that changed everything: My body wasn't broken. It was trying to protect me from something it thought was dangerous, and nobody had ever shown me how to convince it otherwise.
Here's what I discovered through my own lived experience and what I've now taught hundreds of clients:
1️⃣ I was told: "Your anxiety is a chemical imbalance that only medication can fix"
I believed it. I took the medication. Nothing shifted fundamentally. But when I learned the physiological drivers underneath (the survival patterns my nervous system had locked into), I could finally dialogue with my body instead of fighting it.
Why it works: Medication can help symptoms, but if your nervous system is still perceiving threat, it'll keep generating anxiety. You have to retrain the perception.
2️⃣ I was told: "Just think differently about your thoughts"
I tried cognitive reframing until I was exhausted. But then I discovered that talk therapy alone can't touch the somatic (body-based) anxiety patterns that formed way before language did.
Why it works: Your nervous system speaks in sensation and breath, not just words. You have to meet it where it actually lives.
3️⃣ I was told: "Your anxiety is your brain misfiring"
I felt broken, defective, permanently damaged. Then I understood: My nervous system wasn't misfiring; it was overprotecting. Once I saw anxiety as a protection strategy (not a disorder), I could work with my biology instead of against it.
Why it works: The moment you stop fighting what your body is trying to do, you can actually teach it what safety feels like again.
The truth nobody tells you: Anxiety isn't something to eliminate. It's something to understand and redirect.
If you've done therapy, tried medication, used every mindset hack and something still feels stuck, it's not because you're broken. It's because you haven't accessed the neurobehavioural layer yet.
