The "chemical imbalance" theory of anxiety has been repeated for decades, but the science tells a different story. In this video, I break down what research actually shows about anxiety, why the serotonin myth persists, and what a more accurate understanding of your nervous system means for how you approach treatment and recovery.
Whether you've been told your anxiety is a lifelong condition you can only manage with medication, or you're just starting to ask harder questions, this one is worth your time.
