#11 The Hidden Reason Your Anxiety Isn't Healing: It's a Boundary Problem

from The Anxiety Party by The Neuro Babe · host Kerry Green, LCSW

If you've tried everything for your anxiety and you're still not healing, there's a good chance you're missing this piece (and it has nothing to do with finding the right therapy or the right supplement).It's boundaries. And no, not just "saying no more." The kind of boundaries that run so much deeper than that.In this episode, Kerry breaks down why it is literally impossible to heal your anxiety and physical symptoms without mastering this skill — and why so many high-achieving women are unknowingly fueling their own nervous system dysregulation by overgiving, overfunctioning, and never honoring their own capacity.In this episode:Why your body is running on "synthetic energy" (adrenaline and cortisol) and what that's doing to your nervous system over timeThe sneaky way unspoken boundary issues turn into anxiety, resentment, and physical symptoms — without you ever making the connectionWhy knowing you need boundaries isn't the same as knowing how to set them (and why most women were never taught)How to start asking yourself: where is the boundary issue hiding in my life?What it actually looks like to set boundaries with ease — not guilt, not conflict, just easeKerry also gets real about her own years of not even knowing what a boundary was, let alone how to set one without it blowing up into a fight. If that's you, you're not failing. You just never had the language for it.Healing is possible for you. 100%. But not if you keep pretending this part isn't part of the problem.DM Kerry on Instagram @kerrygreen_official to talk about how you can stop carrying everyone else's load and avoiding the one thing keeping your anxiety stuck — and start honoring your own capacity like it's second nature.
