Q & A Panel Discussion (Session 5: Anxiety)

Question and answer panel with David Powlison, Ed Welch, and Dina Previti. Questions addressed include, “Can you define fear and anxiety and how one is related to the other?”; “Can you offer any tips between healthy and unhealthy coping mechanisms for fear and anxiety?”; “Can feelings of insecurity be viewed as a form of anxiety?”; “Anxiety seems to exist on a spectrum, how do you work with someone who seems to have a greater-than-normal sense of anxiety?”; “What do you think of being on anxiety medication for the long-term? Can anxiety be caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain?”; “I recently developed a strange phobia – how would you counsel those with phobias?”; “How do you counsel someone on how to walk through a panic attack?”; “How can I not be afraid when the things I’m most afraid of have actually happened to me in the past and I fear they will again in the future?”
