What is anxiety?

from Wired to be Weird Hosted by Ian McLaughlin

Bo and I discuss what anxiety & fear are, how they're similar, how they're different, and why they're useful. We also discuss how animals experience these emotions, and what it's like when they go wrong. In the next episode, we'll discuss how exactly these emotions are generated in the brain, and how they influence things from creativity to parenting, and if high anxiety is heritable.
