When texting triggers anxiety, rejection, and self-doubt, it can feel exhausting and confusing, especially when everyone else seems to say “it’s just a text.”In this episode, we talk about text anxiety and why messaging can feel so overwhelming for anxious, highly sensitive, neurodivergent, and people-pleasing brains. We explore why unanswered messages, short replies, and changes in tone can trigger overthinking, rejection sensitivity, and fears of abandonment, even when nothing is actually wrong.Ellie shares her own experience of struggling with text anxiety and the boundaries she has learned to set with her phone, including replying on her own timeline, using voice notes, and stepping back from constant texting. We also discuss practical ways to self-soothe when you are spiralling, how to challenge the meaning anxiety attaches to messages, and how to build healthier communication boundaries without guilt.If you often overthink texts, feel pressure to reply instantly, or worry you are too much because of how you communicate, this episode is for you. About EllieEllie Belfield (@elenabelfield) is a person centred therapist for the highly sensitive people who people please!

If you’ve ever been called “clingy,” “too much,” or feel like you need constant reassurance from your partner, this episode is for you.We’re talking about what’s really going on underneath that anxiety in your relationships, the constant need for reassurance and the times you feel your partner pulling away. Because it’s not that you’re too much or that you only attract emotionally unavailable people.In this episode, we unpack how insecure/ anxious attachments develops, what it looks like in relationships, and how you can begin to feel more secure. It’s a really honest, compassionate conversation with the lovely integrative psychotherapist Lauren (@therapywithlauren_) about understanding your patterns, quieting the fear of rejection, and learning to trust that you’re safe to love and be loved.About LaurenI am an integrative psychotherapist who has been in practice for 4+ years.

If you find this episode helpful, I’d love if you could rate and review the podcast. It really helps me reach more people who are struggling with anxiety and OCD and need this kind of support.You’ve probably heard the phrase “feel the fear and do it anyway.” It sounds motivating, but if you live with anxiety or OCD, it can feel impossible. In this episode of Anxiously Capable, I’m breaking down what this actually looks like in real life. It’s not about throwing yourself into the scariest thing you can think of, it’s about learning how to live alongside fear in a way that feels safe and gentle.I’ll share my own experience of facing fear (including the story of learning to ride a motorbike while absolutely terrified), and how I help clients slowly build up their tolerance for fear without overwhelming themselves. We’ll chat about:Why recovery isn’t the absence of fear, but changing your relationship with itHow small, gradual steps can make the biggest differenceEveryday examples of how to “feel the fear and do it gently”If you’ve ever felt pressure to just do the scary thing, this episode will give you a softer, kinder way to approach it.Lets Connect!Follow me on Instagram ⁠⁠Follow the Podcast on Instagram⁠⁠Work With Me - 1-1 Therapy⁠⁠⁠⁠How to Stop Ruminating/ Overthinking (guide)⁠⁠⁠⁠OCD Recovery Action Plan (course) ⁠Disclaimer - This channel/ podcast exist for psychoeducation & marketing purposes.
