In this episode, Maya shares how as a child, anxiety manifested for her as perfectionism, and that she was unaware that what she felt was considered to be anxiety until she received a formal diagnosis of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) as a teenager. Maya also touches on the tools and techniques, such as mental health apps, that help her cope on a day to day basis.
