Episode 30Welcome to the Healing Pod! Featuring the amazing KC again! My official gal pal, (not to be confused with those false gal pals who really are just pals). Today we are talking about dating and managing relationships when dealing with anxiety. Kc and I go over own own experiences (we have improved! And have so far to go) and talk about some ways to approach communication and support when dealing with one or both sides fighting anxiety, and how to pay attention to context and use boundaries when self-disclosing early in relationships to avoid the false codependent intimacy of info dumping. Red flags are important to look for, and not every good person is in a good place to be dating right now. Follow the campsite rule (thank you Dan Savage of the Savage Lovecast: leave people better than how you found them) does not mean sugar coating and ignoring concerns. The important part of the stuffed dog grooming video (also a plug for Kc’s grooming salon!) https://www.facebook.com/share/v/18aMdcuqJd/Never flood your partner. If you want to try and flood yourself please feel free, but you cannot force another person into that state as they will shut down. It has to be exposure by choice to manage anxiety. The abstract for study to fall in love with someone: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0146167297234003Big Mouth and Human Resources can both be found on NetflixAs always, thank you to the wonderful Miki Anderson for our intro and outtro music.
