Wow.....just WOW!!!!
I was so thankful for the episode that went over the symptoms of anxiety. I haven't felt "right" for a couple years. Ever since menopause began a few years ago, I have been experiencing anxiety. I can't tell you how many times I've told my husband I might be having a heart attack or stroke, might need to go to the ER, and been late to work or had to leave work because I was convinced that something was seriously wrong or I was dying. I listened to every episode of "The Anxious Morning" to get me through the end of summer a couple years ago (I'm a teacher) but I've been barely hanging on ever since. There was something about hearing you guys talking about the symptoms of anxiety and being able to feel like I wasn't alone in them that just seemed to resonate with me. I can't thank you enough for what you do. A life lived filled with anxiety and impending doom is the worst! I'm still struggling big time but I just wanted you guys to know that what you're doing is helping people! Thank you!!!!!
So helpful
This podcast, along with a book by Claire Weekes, have helped me with health anxiety and panic attacks more than anything else I’ve done to help me heal. They’re smart, helpful and funny.

Great help!
I’ve been a follower of each of these guys for a while, they are both amazing on their own. But combined? Best podcast I have heard about all things anxiety and panic disorder. They are relatable, but blunt, and if nothing else make you feel less alone. Which can be everything to people like me with agoraphobia. If you are suffering with GAD, panic, OCD and anything in between, give them a listen. You won’t regret it.

Podcast of the year, IMO
Josh and Drew (see the order, guys!) have given me so much useful, compassionate, expert perspective as I navigate elements of my own disordered anxiety. From psycho-education, to helpful strategies (“do what non-anxious you would do”), critical re-frames (“I’m having an adrenaline rush”), to the encouraging “did it anyway” stories from other listeners, this podcast makes me feel more empowered and less alone.

Changing my perspective on anxiety
I’m am so grateful for this podcast. It absolutely changed the way I see my anxiety and panic attacks. I thought “getting better” looked like having no more anxiety but being able to get such great advice I now see it as a wonderful tool my body has. And I am actually grateful for even though it doesn’t feel the best at times. I have been more willing to step into the fear. I have been suffering for 13 years. And I’m hoping that this year will be my year of change. Wonderful podcast I can’t thank these guys enough.

Incredibly helpful, thank you
This is so insightful, helpful, powerful and comforting. I’m so glad I found your podcast
Excellent help and advice
These guys are spot on……
I’ve dealt with all these issues for 63 years starting at 6 years old….They have always come and gone but as I have gotten older, they come more than they go… Just having a clear common sense explanation of what this disorder is, puts you more at ease instead of you constantly ruminating about going nuts!!! Your never cured of this , all you can do is try to control your reactions to the thoughts…This podcast will definitely help anyone struggling with anxiety issues.

Been listening to this amazing podcast daily for a while now!

So helpful
This podcast has helped me through many anxious days and nights. Soothing context and perspective from two guys who have been through it themselves! Love the Did it Anyway stories.

Absolutely wonderful
I’m so glad I was referred this podcast. Although it isn’t a “cure” for anxiety (because there isn’t a cure lol) they are so helpful with the way they explain things and it’s so comforting to hear the stories of other people who struggle, really makes you feel not as alone! Thanks Josh and Drew.
- Such a relief!

I didn’t know how much I needed this!!
Wow. Before discovering Disordered I assumed that my rumination on seemingly real threats, and my search for the “miracle thought” were me taking on my anxiety head-on! The humor and insight on this podcast strikes such a deep chord with me and has helped me realize that it is OK to just take my anxiety with me, and now I’m actually hoping to get those anxious thoughts so that I can rack up my “did-it-anyways!” I am so thankful to the kindness and compassion in this podcast. These two have such a great chemistry on air and I hope they know it is truly making a difference to people!!
Love this podcast.
This podcast is funny and so helpful. I love listening. Thank you so much for doing this important, life-saving work!

Thank God I found Josh and Drew!
This podcast has been god sent. I've had anxiety and for years but it always felt some what controllable. Recently a traumatic experience happened that took my anxiety to a 12. I didn't know what to do. I recently started therapy and one of the recommendations my therapist made was to read Josh's book "Anxiety: Panicking about panic" and from there I went down the Josh rabbit hole. I found the podcast and have been listening to it every day. I've already learned so much about my anxiety and how common these symptoms are. I no longer feel alone and like I'm losing my mind. Thank you guys so much for everything you do and I will be a forever listener (even if I'm not longer dealing with bad anxiety).
So Helpful!
I’ve suffered from anxiety and OCD my whole life, and I’m really enjoying this podcast and finding it helpful. I especially appreciate that the hosts are well informed in the correct treatment methods for anxiety disorders.

Authentic, relatable, practical and comforting
I’m one of those people who’s read/googled/listened to anything and everything that might have a prayer of “curing” my anxiety, and this is the first podcast that offered me authentic, relatable, actionable hope. It’s low-key, refreshing and helpful.

Hands down recommend to anyone struggling with anxiety
Josh and Drew are true experts, having experienced a disordered relationship with anxiety and have come out the other side. Their knowledge and education is delivered in such an empowering, understandable, and very entertaining way! I've struggled with GAD, health anxiety and panic for most of my life off and on. Now that I know all about the amygdala, the stress jug, and the threat response, I feel so much more capable of willfully tolerating my anxiety and knowing that recovery is possible. Thank you doesn't say enough for what you both do for those of us "in the midst of it"!
Amazing work
I came across your podcast on Spotify listened to different episodes and I thought okay some great ideas and outcomes,. I now listening every episode. I can't believe the understanding and diversity you guys talk about in each episode. It helped me so much ,continue the great work guys
Informative and life changing advice for sufferers
Drew and Josh have constantly pumped out high quality psycho-education for over 40 episodes, and they haven’t stopped yet. Never has a podcast offered clear explanations of what anxiety is and how to recover from it (or reorder things). They offer great advice which appeals to all types of anxious disorders, moreover they’re both likeable guys with their own experiences with disordered anxiety - what else could you ask for! I’ve noticed that both presenters have mastered talking about complex and distressing subjects without using triggering language or terms - truly a sign they’re sensitive to what will help and what will harm viewers anxious recovery. Can’t recommend these guys enough 10/10.
The best online resource for anxiety recovery
The Disordered podcast is exceptional. I’d go as far as saying it’s the best online resource for anxiety help full stop. I’ve spent thousands on therapy and yet listening to Josh & Drew share their lived experiences and offering more direct advice on the path to recovery was the catalyst I needed to begin my journey of getting my life back, albeit slowly. So thank you both, keep up the good work!
BEYOND GRATEFUL!
Thankyou from the bottom of my heart..I was once an outgoing, confident woman and mother, and woke up one day with burnout/ panic and anxiety. I couldnt leave my house, or be alone until I started learning about what was. happening. I have learnt so much from this podcast, and now I am recovering... I truly dont know where I would be without this podcast. They have been through it, so it is not just intellectual, it is REAL and SO COMPASSIONATE and kind , so you really feel so reassured and seen. I thought I was completely insane forever, and now I have hope and can see that there is nothing wrong with me.
The most helpful anxiety based content I have ever found.
After an entire year of being stuck in a disordered state of anxiety this podcast has taught me SO much about what is going on with me and what I need to do to fix it and also what kind of therapy is best for my problems, I’m super thankful for these guys and would highly recommend this podcast to anyone with anxiety/panic disorders/ocd, there is nothing better.

Genius
You guys are so knowledgable and make the information very digestible, as well as entertaining. Being someone who struggles with health anxiety ep. 17 of your disorders podcast was a god send. It seems surreal how every single talking point was relatable and even more so, reassuring. Bravo.
Game Changer
Followed both Josh and Drew’s podcasts separately before finding this gem. Truly so helpful in making you not feel so alone and helping push me to actually DO the hard work (exposures, feeling my anxiety and riding the wave of panic, etc.). Very thankful for you both and the work you do!

Health Anxiety
Hi Josh & Drew, love your Podcast it’s helping me so much. I have ocd, health anxiety, intrusive thoughts and panic attacks, just want to say I’m having more good days than bad at present and I believe your self help advice in the Podcast has helped me more than anything. Take care Clairey xx
The tips for anxiety reduction has helped
Always thought it was my personal fear. I’ve learned that I am not unique and finally feel hopeful. Anxiety began in grade 2 and peaked at age 40. At 60, now, after learning, studying and helpful podcast. I’m feeling better and know that good feelings will return after anxiety and fear. These podcasters really know what my life has been like, which helps me feel less alone. This podcast helped me feel brave enough to go to the dentist.

These guys are the best out there!
I’ve had disordered anxiety coming up on 2 years now and am so incredibly grateful that I found these two! The way that they break down what’s happening in your mind and body and why it’s not dangerous even though everything else is telling us that it is, is really helpful! They make me feel seen and not like an unusual, rare case, outsider. Thanks so much for all that you do for this community! I hope all that struggle with anxiety and OCD find you! Truly a gift! 🙌
