Ever feel overwhelmed and shut-down for… well… kind of mundane reasons? Like you’re about to explode if your phone doesn’t stop pinging? You might kill your significant other if they don’t let *that issue* go? You might break down if you get an email at 9pm? 

When the agitation from over stimulation builds up, what happens next? Shutdown, avoidance, aggression? A quick turn towards maladaptive behaviors that lingers for days? Yeah, Fucker, today I’m talking about Distress Intolerance, inner critics, and avoidant coping responses. Is it real, and what can we do about it?

OH, and a replay from the podcast, Anxious and Angry…. you know, just one of my favorite bands, talking about Traumatized Motherfuckers! WHAT THE MOTHERFUCK. So excited that I’m pushing this episode to the front of the line!
