    At the Pinnacle of my Anxiety
    Finding this podcast has been such a blessing!! Every thing you have said resonates so deeply with me. For the longest time I drank alcohol to hide my anxiety. I got sober and stayed sober almost 7 years and then a couple of months ago I went back to drinking, now I am back on the sober track, 2 weeks today. But my health anxiety has become so irrational that I can’t seem to find joy in life. I workout daily, I read scripture I try so much but I go to sleep feeling ok and wake up with stomach problems. I have fear of going to sleep because I always get that weird feeling of woozy as I fall asleep, I worry about dizziness etc. but everything u said about fear, death etc. its all on point. I want to do your anxiety program but I can’t afford it right now. Thank you for these podcasts!!!!! ❤️

    Finally
    Dennis has a way of explaining the causes and proper solutions to ending health anxiety that I’ve not found in books or other resources. It all makes too much sense when you hear it from him. You know for certain that he has lived through the challenges. His approach to delivering these messages is inspirational and calming. I continue to make progress. Thank you Dennis.

    Sage advice
    Been following The Anxiety Guy for years and have found his information and tools much more helpful than other methods/therapies I’ve tried. He’s the real deal and so full of compassion. Highly recommend his program and YouTube videos for extra support along the healing road.

    Best Health Anxiety Podcast
    Dennis is so relatable. I often find myself nodding in agreement to things he says. After being to various therapists and trying different modalities of therapy, nothing compares to the compassion, insight and relatability of Dennis since he’s experienced this all himself.

    So happy I found this
    I started listening to this podcast about a month ago and everything Dennis talks about is almost exactly what I feel. I have dealt with OCD and health anxiety for many years and still feel “crazy “ at times. Dennis really breaks down physical and emotional symptoms that are caused by this type of anxiety and it gives peace to know I am not the only one out there with these feelings. Highly suggest anyone out there struggling with with this to listen to this podcast.

    Unbelievable
    i first started listening to you back in winter of last year and it helped me tremendously. i’ve been having some of the same issues again and it makes me sad that i lost touch with this podcast. this is therapy!
  • Kdfrdae
    Thank you
    I feel heard. I have suffered through health anxiety for 30+ years…this podcast has given me a place to turn to and support and ways to help change my mind.
  • ëllmö
    God sent!!!
    Thank you for your podcast, it’s helped me greatly. I have panic disorder and it has literally destroyed my life. After listening to your podcast, I definitely feel like it was a God sent to my life. Truly grateful
  • diancab
    Please keep going!
    I’m a nurse, and do so many things for my health, but can never conquer my health anxiety. I exist and survive. I don’t live. I grew up in a very dysfunctional home, and am sick of living (not living) this way. Thank you for your help.
  • Not frantic
    Finally!
    Dennis’ podcasts are guiding me in the right direction. Suffered for decades with health anxiety so much so that I had an scraped my car on a pole following a medical test. I just ordered his book. Thank you Dennis. I look forward to my journey now.
  • decOatmen
    Highly recommend
    This podcast has been so helpful to me already and I’ve only listened to about 12 of the episodes. I’ve been in therapy for years trying to overcome health anxiety but I was only learning to cope with the symptoms. This podcast is giving me the tools I need to finally overcome it! UPDATE: I just listened to the episode on Coronavirus and I’m super bummed because the host seems to be a 5G conspiracy theorist! 🤪 (If you have health anxiety, skip this episode!) For me that just means I won’t be buying his book and I’ll be mindful to just listen to the parts of the podcast that work for me. Overall I’d still recommend!

    Can calm me down in a minute
    When I notice my HA creeping up, I can put on this podcast and it is like he is getting into my head and telling me what is happening. It is like he is reading my mind. Then I have more ammunition to say to my intrusive thoughts……’The threats you are making me feel are not real. It is just a part of the anxiety. So the fear you bring me is unwarranted’. This podcast is life changing. If you are suffering, put on a short clip and just open your mind.
  • CCD2018
    Thank you!
    Thank you for this podcast! I’m so thankful I found it. When I start to feel my anxiety come on, just listening to your show helps me so much. I’m able to see my anxiety differently and I love the practical tips you give!!
  • joegu
    Program is too short
    Although the podcast does have some good info, it’s too short. It would be even better if it was at least 29 minutes. But 5-8min podcast is too short and feels incomplete.
  • *K62*
    Thank you
    Health anxiety is a curse. I really feel I’m getting a lot out of your YouTube and podcast presentations and learning about it. I’ve recently been diagnosed with a very very early stage of melanoma but it did nothing to help my health anxiety as you can imagine. It’s been tough. The constant need for reassurance is exhausting. Can I ask what supplements you used?
  • Tazdatazz
    Helped Immediately
    Completely on the spot, helpful, calming to listen to, gives easy strategies, doesn’t overwhelm compassionate, can’t say enough !
  • Peri Jill
    My anchor in the storm!

    Thank you!
    This podcast has helped me in 1,000 ways! Thank you Dennis!
  • dgolding1
    Spot on!
    These podcasts are so spot on it’s like Dennis has been observing me then tailoring the podcast around what he saw. Anyone that subscribes to the Dr John Sarno theories on mind body issues will love the information in these podcasts!
  • melsbl
    Huge help
    Dennis’s program that I purchased helped me so much almost two years ago after listening to his podcast for a while before. Getting covid 19 has given me a setback with my health anxiety so I have found this podcast now and I’m confident he can help me again. Sending healing to everyone !
  • Clynnx77
    Suffering and immediately felt some connection with this...
    I found this and have listened all morning. Many a-ha moments, little lightbulbs and yes, that is me 100%. After some health issues, my mistrust of Drs and Meds and everything little sensation sent me into the er over and over. Always a heart attack, stroke, or going insane. This is my new favorite podcast to listen to and I hope to move forward with it.
  • kristibike
    This moved me
    To think this young man and I had identical health anxiety attacks. Dennis is better. I hope to be. So many many tools. Listening to audio version “F Coping..” morning mapping, meditation, re framing and affirmations for a few months now. When I miss a few days, I relapse. Getting there. God bless you Dennis.
  • tleanzz
    Thank goodess
    Thank you Dennis.. I’ve been struggling for a while. I woke up today feeling extremely anxious and attached to the idea of a catastrophic future. After listening to the podcast, I have a newly emergent optimism for the day. I’m feeling more like a warrior and less nervous about the day ahead
  • SHELOVEDITT
    Thank you Dennis
    I developed what I know now to be Health Anxiety. It started June 15th 2020 after my COVID recovery. I would have never in my life thought that I would listen to a podcast like this. I found it today 7/28/2020. I can’t believe how helpful and spot on this podcast is. Dennis is in my shoes as he speaks to me. I am a veteran that used to always volunteer for missions any time the opportunity came up in Afghanistan. I didn’t care, I wanted to be out there. I was invincible! For years!!! I never got sick, 7 years at my job and only called in one day because of food poisoning. Other than that, nothing. Not even a cold. Then boom!!! COVID and it was the worst week of my life. I would much rather go to Afghanistan for another year than relive that week. I learned I wasn’t invincible.... I was human. This podcast is helping me so much. Thank you Dennis..... I’m not alone.
  • Bridgforth
    Enthusiasm and Compassion
    The most remarkable characteristic of Dennis is that he is able to maintain genuine enthusiasm and compassion even though he has largely defeated his anxiety and apparently no longer experiences it on a day-to-day basis. Not personally struggling with it any longer, you would think that he would lose touch with what it is - or at least lose some of his enthusiasm to defeat it. The fact that this is not the case speaks not only to his commitment and talent, but also to his sincere empathy for others. This is no easy task, and I am grateful.

    Life Changer
    Dennis is inspiring and uplifting, I can’t put into words how much he helped me when I was at my lowest and most desperate. He gave me hope when I felt hopeless. Thank you for gifting us with your wisdom & healing from your journey Dennis, from the bottom of my heart
  • sarit513
    Amazing
    This podcast is amazing and super helpful. I felt lost and helpless for a long time and I found this show and I’m really starting to feel some kind of hope and that I will overcome health anxiety.

    Best help for Health Anxiety!
    I love The Anxiety Guy's (aka Dennis) health anxiety podcasts. I love all the content he puts out in his program, on his website, facebook, instagram, youtube videos, and his podcasts. They are the only thing that are getting me through on a daily basis to heal my health anxiety. These health anxiety podcasts are my favorite because they speak to health anxiety directly and not just generalized anxiety. The Anxiety Guy puts out so much free content because he has actually had it for 6 years and genuinely wants to share with others on how to overcome it, not just cope with it. I actually bought his structured program off his website as well as all of his free content. It is affordable and well worth the cost. If you subscribe, you will even be notified when he puts his program on sale, around holidays usually. theanxietyguy.com

    Suggestions
    I was pointed to this show on a health anxiety subreddit after feeling I was losing my mind. During the first episode I listened to I nearly cried because it is so nice to not feel completely alone. Can I suggest perhaps an episode on how anxiety affects mental health such as memory loss, deja Vu, concentration, or mental fatigue in general and the symptoms that follow. Thank you for this podcast.
  • Hairclips
    This has saved me
    You have no idea how much this podcast has helped me. I did a “what if” one day seeing if there was HA podcast. (It was during a massive anxiety panic attack) and just being able to relate to everything you were saying instantly calmed me down. As soon as I feel anxious about the new thing I am convinced will kill Me, I turn your podcast on and I feel instantly better and don’t run to the ER. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
  • Sara400
    Thanks
    This podcast saved me from intense distress and possible suicide today.
  • hadramb
    Thank you
    I have been experiencing anxiety on such an internal basis lately it almost felt like I would never get out of my head. I have been watching Dennis on YouTube just today and he has helped me tremendously. I’m so excited I found he has a podcast. I have been able to “fight back” against anxiety and I have been able to learn ways that help me individually learn to live my normal life without these irrational thoughts. I feel like I’ve hit a breakthrough I never thought I’d have and I’m so emotionally thankful! I cannot wait to hear more and more from him. This has been the ONLY thing that has helped me get out of my head and I cannot thank him enough. THANK YOU
  • Danamal55
    Awesome!!!
    Dennis is a mentor who helps me in a daily basis!
  • Wills612
    Great
    Practical skills you can immediately implement
  • TracesonMD
    Not impressed
    Although this guy seems sincere , his verbosity and ego kind of turn me off. He spent a whole session on depersonalization but never explained it and his distain for cbt therapy, mindfulness and other anxiety tools or anxiety groups turns me off. The podcasts are too short.
  • chelsbrown91
    Awesome!
    I listen to your pod casts so much that you’ve showed up in my dreams!!! Hahaha ! Thanks so much for all you do friend!
  • Jack patnoe
    Dennis= Genius
    I could literally write a full book about how amazing dennis is, but i will keep this quick and simple in this review. He was the one person who helped me out of my darkest of times stuggling hard with DP/DR. His techiniques, mindest, tips, etc are second to NO ONE on the market. If you stuggle with any form of anxiety or mental health, this is where you need to be and this is where you will get better. I guarantee it.

  • NH Kelley
    So helpful
    I struggle with health anxiety from to time. I can go months and I feel amazing, and then suddenly any ache or pain is going to be my demise! I can always count on these Podcasts to help me rationalize my fears and get back on track! Thank you so much!
  • MJAram90
    Have never needed a podcast so badly in my life!
    I currently going through my own health anxiety struggle. There are a lot of podcasts about anxiety, but not many on health anxiety. I’ve listened to every episode more than once! It helps me on days when I’m obsessing over any myriad of symptoms I'm feeling. Love this podcast and always look forward to more episodes!
  • Jbomecca

  • CCTommyr
    Good Stuff!
    Short and could really be longer for me. I visit Dr. Google frequently about my arm twitches. I want to stop researching, but I’m addicted! 5 years ago, my son had Cancer and I’ve been like this ever since.
  • Meghanmichelle
    What a relief finding this podcast. I do wish it was longer but I’ll be back every week
