Talking Teenage Anxiety With Gianna - a podcast by Phillip Di Bella

Speaking from experience, with having 2 teens in the house, both Phil and Gianna tackle anxiety from not only the viewpoint of being parents but also as survivors of anxiety themselves.

For Phil, his anxiety happens when his mind and body fail to sync up. Finding himself fighting the classic signs of Panic Attacks, Phil has learned that the best way to get his brain to relax and match the speed of his body is through meditation. Taking those deep breaths and grounding himself, letting his brain realise that it’s time to slow down from the 100 miles per hour speed it normally runs at, to a much easier and slower speed.

Gianna then opens up about her own battles in her early 20s, and not being able to afford support, having to rely on informal support in the form of her sister. With every negative thought, Gianna’s sister would challenge her to turn it into something positive. Gianna also goes into how reading and teaching herself about the brain and its functionality has helped her with her anxiety.

With the speed of the world and our brains not being able to keep up with the constant changes, listen to parents Phil and Gianna talk about the 4 steps to take to help reign in anxiety and the 7 steps that not only parents but all caregivers should be on the lookout for in their teen or tween, that show when they are battling anxiety.
