And the transcript WARNING if you're a lover of the written word this may make you frustrated, or angry - you have been warned - is it an 'ism Paul Clough: Sometimes we need a quick fix to deal with anxiety Hey, how you doing? Anxiety toolbox. And that's bit flash, isn't it? Bit posh having your toolbox for anxiety. We don't really want anxiety, but. And the term quick fixes, that's a little bit grating for me. But it's something we might need. I think we do need because you see there's quick fixes and the real fixes for anxiety, the fear, the panic, for overwhelm, for frustration, basically for any negative emotion.

And I'm going to talk about that in a lot deeper depth because that's where you go in another podcast, it's probably maybe even the next one following this, where we ren to look at dealing with things like not necessari trauma, but really, anxiety.
