Brené Brown on Perfectionism

There are a lot of resources that folks don't think about when it comes to treating an anxiety or panic attack, condition or disorder.

Because if your attack is not caused by a physical condition or it being 100% biochemical (and it isn't) then there is some work to do.



This is a short clip from Brené Brown about the shield of perfectionism, wanting that quick cure and trying to show that you are on your game when that might not be the truth.

This is a commercial for Miles Nervine, over the counter medication that was pulled from the market in the 1970s because of bromide toxicity. Too many people were winding up in the emergency room because of ingesting too much of the medicine.

Whole class of people developed bromine toxicity. Yikes.
