Thank you Jason Schreurs for having me on Scream Therapy to talk about punk rock and my mental health. You can probably pick up quickly from the trembling in my voice that my struggle with anxiety is not an easy subject for me to talk about so openly. But I feel that it is so important to share your experiences and be honest when you are strong enough, so that we can all feel maybe just a little less alone. xo —Adam
Host Jason Schreurs brings Adam Eckhoff of Oh, Are They? onto the show to talk about anxiety and ways to acknowledge the self-doubt and other difficult emotions that come along with it. Adam explains some of the tools he uses when his anxiety interferes with his creative process and everyday life.
