    It's not a lack of exposure to other people, we don't need other people honestly and infact would have less anxiety if other people didn't exist... it's the stoic refusal to HEAR other people which creates very static mindsets. Static mindsets create friction.

  • @michelled8408

    What is causing anxiety? For me it is the fact that neither side is trying to help anyone that needs help. Nobody can afford the rent and people are working and staying with multiple people in order to keep a roof over their heads. In Las Vegas where i live rents went from 900-1k to 2000+ and regular people cant afford anything. Others are worried about climate change, LGBT issues, insulin costs, etc .. yet not one person on either side is taking the fact that we can't afford to live anywhere seriously. Nothing above is more serious than that.

    Great interview. Been listening to Dan for a long time and didn’t know about his claustrophobia. I suffer from panic attacks, a series of which were triggered last summer by heat and bicycling. There were some heat-related deaths in the news that may or may not have been contributing to my anxiety. I was really suffering until I got on prozac for a few weeks. It had some unfortunate side effects, but I was able to get off it and be mostly back to normal.

      That's generally what happens though. You can't let yourself get anxious. They have their reasons and you should just be happy that you are there for her. My ex husbands mom was unable to get around for a few years before she passed and out of 14 of her children only 2 were there all the time with her. Those 2 ended up with severe health issues, one had a stroke, the other got cancer. Let your siblings live their lives.

    i see all the blame placed on social media which of course plays a major role but never see mentioned that our cities that are nearly 100% dependent on private vehicle usage. Gone are the chance encounters of walking by an acquiantance and catching up. Gone are the kids running around the streets playing and socializing. If the streets aren't safe or comfortable to walk, bike, play, then where are people meeting? Only at work, or in bars?
    Social media is a distraction everywhere but to physically meet people in real life we need places to physically meet people that aren't just work or bars. We need third places like all human societies have had up until the last century when car dependent infrastructure changed the ways we live and communicate with one another.

    For me personally there are other things than culture, like becoming a senior and health stuff. I mention this because I suspect is most folks primary anxiety is not in the in the social and political you are exploring here. I have that as well, quite Trump driven. But part of my Trump anxiety is the realization that about 1/3 of my fellow Americans are delusional, miserable, mean, and not too bright. This has implications of failure in our political and social system so many are like this. It's not going to change overnight and it's disturbing and ultimately a bit depressing.

    If you don't have a little anxiety watching the world as it has become it could be that you are not paying attention or are not really being honest. Sure anxiety comes in multiple forms, but as someone with anxiety, I would rather have my moments than be apathetic and go along to get along. This is the dog in the burning house meme. Anxiety, as much as it sucks, is a useful defense mechanism. A lot of people aren't in tune with their feelings and hide who they truly are so they can save face and avoid criticism. I don't like group gatherings of 10 people I don't know, and I don't know many people who actually do. You would have to be an annoying narcissist to like that. I like being around my friends, family members, and people I know more than people I don't. Nothing against those people in particular. I would rather meet a stranger one on one than 10 at a party. I would rather be self aware, genuine and honest than be unaware, disingenuous, and dishonest. We all have an asshole, but not all of us are assholes. Those that tend to be are lacking in compassion towards others, and have an inflated ego, and think that they can live life without paying attention to the world around them.
