Anxiety, Loneliness & the Burdens We Hide

from Pastors’ Hangover · host Pastors’ Hangover

We all carry things no one else sees—emotional baggage, silent struggles, and anxiety we try to manage alone. But what happens when the weight gets too heavy? This week on Pastors Hangover, we dive into the unseen burdens people are moving every day and why loneliness has become the norm, not the exception. Questions addressed: Can I love Jesus and still battle anxiety? What’s the difference between worry and a real mental health crisis? How can I identify the invisible burdens in my life. We also unpack how COVID changed the way people connect (or don’t), why 88% of people struggling with anxiety don’t actually need medical treatment, but better life rhythms, and how faith plays a role in managing our mental and emotional health. If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying too much, this episode is for you.

Wounded Warriors of the Cross Gary Pastoral and clergy mental health is a mostly ignored area, especially by those who live their lives as pastors in the clergy. The stigma of mental health within those who serve in the shadow of the cross is something that invokes the stigma of fear. Many of those in the clergy will choose to suffer in their despair rather than reaching out for help. Sometimes those suffering choose to wait until it's too late to get the real help that they need. At Wounded Warriors of the Cross our mission is to lift the stigma and the veil of silence that encompasses clergy mental health and assist those who suffer in silence. Wounded Warriors of the Cross is here to shed the light of Christ's love into those dark places.
