Do you ever get stuck asking yourself a bunch of hypothetical, “what if” questions that make you more and more stressed, even though the situation isn’t actually happening? You've probably found yourself in a stress spiral. In this episode of But Are You Happy, Dr. Anastasia Hronis will teach you the 5-minute method to stop a stress spiral in its tracks. You will also learn:

• The difference between a panic attack and stress
• When to seek help, and how.
• Why anxiety isn’t always a bad thing - and what it’s trying to teach us
• Why we worry and stress so much in the first place

Why are so many women being diagnosed with ADHD later in life? What does your partner’s penis have to do with your bacterial vaginosis diagnosis? And when to worry about a lumpy boob.

In this episode, psychiatrist and ADHD specialist Dr Kieran Kennedy discusses how women often experience more inattentive features of ADHD and why they may try to mask the symptoms. We also talk about time blindness, memory issues and emotional dysregulation.

And is ADHD making you feel more sensitive to rejection? We discuss a condition called rejection sensitive dysphoria.
