    Apr 11 2026

    I'm seeing more PR stuff and news stories about weight lost drugs for anxiety and depression.

    The short version for me is that there is not enough science or science research to determine if GLP-1 can be used to treat anxiety and depression. But that doesn't stop news stories and PR pieces from being written.

  • ARP 404 - The Anxiety of Loneliness
    Apr 10 2026
    In this episode, a look at loneliness, the connection to anxiety and how the book, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter can help us understand the relationship between the two.

    Loneliness is disconnection from the other. Could be the loss of the other person. Could be an an idea or way of being that use to sustain you and now it doesn't. Could be a country that that use to pretend to live up to 1/4 of their stated ideas and now you find out it closer to 1/32nd and dropping.

    Anxiety can mean that your brain and body feels that there is instability, danger or a threat. Your symptoms are the visual or sensory representation of something being wrong. Symptoms can be embarrassing. Many anxious people make the choice of separating themselves from others. There are other options. Resources Mentioned:
