Our Whole Childhood with Patrick Teahan
Is It Anxiety or Childhood Trauma?
Anxiety rarely shows up without a backstory. In this video, I’m diving deep into how childhood trauma — especially experiences rooted in neglect and abuse — can shape the anxiety many of us struggle with today.
These issues often get labeled just as anxiety.
We'll explore:
1️⃣ The root causes of anxiety tied to our past
2️⃣ How those early experiences can still affect us in the present
I’ll walk you through a list of childhood trauma-related issues that might help you connect some important dots in your own life. These topics can be intense, so please take care of yourself as you watch. This isn’t about blaming the past, but about understanding it — because when we understand where anxiety comes from, we can begin to loosen its grip. I’ll also share my personal thoughts on anxiety, therapy, and how trauma differs from general anxiety.
