Episode 86
Nail on the head when talking about feeling bad after the greek salad and had symptoms vs eating a pizza with friends felt great. Was the healthy eating a form of trying to avoid the symptoms vs not caring. Doing it anyway! Do health for the health reasons not the avoidance reasons. Great episode

You’ll never know how much you’re helping
My mum actually started listening to you guys in August, she has Generalised Anxiety. She recommended you to me and i have chronic all day long ‘Health Anxiety’ with a main focus on Cancer and tumours. For weeks, i had been unable to eat due to thinking i would be anaphylactic to everything. By episode 4, i had managed to stop fixating on it! For episode 5, i wrote down every single ‘symptom’ I've been getting thats been worrying me. You managed to tick off 10 out of 12 as being anxiety symptoms, and the 2 that were left were things i had already had checked by the Gp or were likely IBS related anyway. Thankyou, from the bottom of my heart. Ive been getting awful derealisation, absolutely certain its caused by a tumour putting pressure on my brain, and then you said its one of the most common symptoms. You’re helping so many people.
So helpful, so much great information
This podcast has helped me through some of my darkest moments with insight, information, and humor. I really appreciate both hosts' extensive knowledge, lived experience, and compassion for those in the throes of disordered anxiety.
Just what I needed
This is a fantastic show. They have such a wide variety of topics that all center around anxiety. They really helped me to look at my own anxiety in a different way. It doesn’t have to be dread and doom. Others are experiencing the same things I am and I feel less alone.

Love this podcast!
Living with fear, anxiety and not even going anywhere I want to go for half my life so far, I appreciate this podcast so very much. This is so disabling and not understanding why it happens causes all the more anxiety.

Great Information!
This is a fantastic podcast with great information for actually recovering from anxiety disorders, not just “managing” or coping. Great work!

5 stars all around
Not to exaggerate, but this podcast has been genuinely life changing. The shift in perspective I’ve had since I started listening has improved my life greatly. I tear up a lot listening to it because I feel so seen. To know I’m not alone in ANY of what I have been feeling, even the stuff I thought for sure could only be me, is greatly comforting. I feel a sense of community with people I’ve never met. The hosts are wonderful. So knowledgeable, relatable and warm. If you’re suffering from anxiety PLEASE give this a listen.

Putting a Fun Spin on Anxiety
I really love this podcast because they put an entertaining spin on something that is so hard and challenging for so many of us.
I also think its easy for someone who has never experienced what we are going through to sit there and tell us what we need to do based on what they have learned in school or in a book but to have two guys who have been through the fire and come out on the other side that makes such a big difference. It gives us all hope and also makes me take their advice more seriously.

Your videos provide me relief when all hope is lost
I love your podcast about the fear of losing control. I refer to it every time I feel like I’m going to lose control and break into hysteria and it gives me relief. The information you provide in your podcasts for free are usually only given by people trying to sell courses online which can be frustrating sometimes. Genuinely, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Life Changing
Thank you Drew and Josh. Im a postpartum mom, was dealing with some pretty severe anxiety and ocd and life is good again

finally somewhere i feel both motivated and comforted
Drew and Josh,
I am someone who has searched for the cure to anxiety for years. I was diagnosed with every anxiety disorder at 6 years old and was told I would just “grow out of it,” which obviously was not the case. It wasn’t until my anxiety and panic turned into 24/7 DPDR and complete physical symptoms (functional neurological disorder) that I truly understood what it does to the body. I have felt, and sometimes still feel, hopeless and shameful and so so angry with the mind and body I have been given. But hearing you both say time and time again that I am not broken, that uncomfortableness is NOT dangerous, and that my body is doing what it is evolutionarily meant to do, has given me so much comfort. I still have all of my symptoms, FND being the worst of the byproducts, BUT, I know I am not alone. Thank you both for doing thing weekly. You save lives with your episodes.

Laugh Out Loud
Hey Josh and Drew,
I love your Podcast. Educational but also entertaining. I live with anxiety, depression and OCD. I am 74 years old and am getting a bit “crotchety” (notice the play on words). So when Josh confused perineal for parietal I couldn’t stop laughing. I think laughter is one of the best therapies for mental health disorders.
Carry on guys!

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!
You two are awesome! I would still be lost in a whirlpool of anxiety if it wasn’t for finding this podcast. So much helpful information, it costs nothing, and the jokes between the two of you make it even better. I keep the episodes handy if and when I need a quick tune up. Keep up the great work guys!

They get it!
I been following them for a while now, the fact that they know what we go through because they were agoraphobic suffered with all the symptoms we suffer with and were able to make it out gives me so much hope. Thank you to the both of you for all you do and the support you bring us struggling through this awful battle.

MCT
The most recent episode on MCT was amazing! They all are but as someone who has been through MCT it’s great to hear all its wonderfulness ( not a word)! being talked about.
Absolutely brilliant
After suffering for a few months with panic an anxiety i found this absolutely amazing so informative an had really helped my confidence in my recovery , thanks guys
Hopeful.
I love the content, it's so very helpful and comforting to know you're not along in this wilderness that is anxiety 😬
Amazing Podcast! My first source of psyho-education
I just finished my first year of college here in the USA, and I've been struggling with occasional panic attacks for the last few years. I've never been to a therapist or been diagnosed, but I believe I have GAD and some social anxiety as well. Now that I've been home for the summer and more comfortable, the panic attacks have felt more serious and scary, but my mom kinda babies me through a few of them which helped calm me down.
I talked to a coworker -- one who I know struggles with anxiety -- about it and she suggested this podcast. I'd like to believe that Drew and Josh prevented me from having some sort of panic disorder, as now I know not to be afraid of panic attacks and it can just be something that happens sometimes. They helped prevent me from becoming a huge anxious mess and I really appreciate what they do here.
P.s.
Josh's British accent is wonderful to listen to
Oh man
Dare I say I’m so overwhelmed by wanting to ingest all this amazingness that I’m making myself a little anxious about wanting to consume it all so bad!? lol. Just kidding. Kind of. This podcast is so helpful. I feel seen and I feel heard. I also feel like I’m learning life changing things about myself that will help my life. Thank you so much.

An honest and realistic approach to managing anxiety - 100% recommend Disordered!
Over the last 6 months, my health anxiety manifested into debilitating physical symptoms that have impacted me daily. I was scared and confused as to what was happening to me and feared a loss of control and going stir crazy! Since finding Drew and Josh on Disordered I have a much better understanding of what anxiety is, how it manifests, the patterns of thoughts it creates, and it's OCD tendencies and how to tackle these. Josh and Drew are realistic, honest, and transparent about anxiety, whilst being understanding and empathetic, as well as injecting a bit of humour into the mix. I love the format of understanding the issue first, explaining what it can look like and how it happens, then giving advice on how to manage this. I cannot thank Drew and Josh enough for being by my side as I go through my anxiety, their podcast puts me at ease and reminds me that I am not on my own and will make it through this stage of my life. I highly recommend this podcast for anyone with anxiety and even those without, who may love and support someone with anxiety, as it gives such insight! Thank you Drew and Josh, forever grateful for this podcast and the impact it's had on so many of us.
Having Dr Steven Hayes on was amazing!
You both rock! Sorry you had the flu and Josh was not on but Dr Hayes is one of those dudes that do not come around life often. Having him on your podcast reinforces your message to all of us and I thank you.
Want to Overcome Anxiety for Good? This is Your Answer!
Josh and Drew are honest, funny, and relatable. This no-gimmicks podcast is here to help people overcome debilitating OCD, anxiety, and panic disorder with straightforward, honest talk. If you want to overcome anxiety for good, this podcast and putting in the effort described in the episodes is all you need. I am so fortunate to have found this podcast. After dealing with anxiety, OCD, and depression for the vast majority of my line, I now have a clear vision on last relief. Thank you so much for all you do!

Best (free!) online resource I have found
The kind of information that Josh and Drew offer for free, is just incredible. I have a very good face-to-face therapist, but she is not skilled/specialized in anxiety. Having CBT with her in combination with these podcasts have helped me SO much (and I was able to teach her a lot about handling anxiety, thanks to these podcasts) :) THANK YOU guys! Please always stay yourselves and don't let fame get to your heads. I really appreciate your down to earth, funny, almost pub-like (in a professionay way) means of communication! It brought me from feeling like a freak to feeling like a human being again.
MY HERO'S
Fantastic podcast . in less than 4 episodes, my current debilitating anxiety that I have been experiencing for the last few days , has subsided substantially . I already feel more empowered on how to accept and handle these anxiety issues. thank you so much for your help.
So helpful
I love therapy for many reasons and don’t want to write therapists off- however I have personally struggled to find someone in my area who was able to help me with panic disorder. I have made more progress in engaging with life by listening and practicing with Josh and Drew than I did with the 5 therapists I tried over the past 4 years. So thankful for these guys.
