REUPLOAD | Anxiety Hacks | feat @Leo and Longevity

This podcast episode features a discussion between Tony Huge and Leo Longevity on managing social anxiety. They explore both short-term solutions (like benzodiazepines, used cautiously and acutely) and long-term strategies (such as SSRIs to promote neurogenesis and cognitive behavioral therapy). Leo details his personal experience using Toastmasters to create positive social associations, emphasizing the importance of neurogenesis for rewiring the brain. The conversation also touches upon alternative approaches, including GABAergic supplements (like L-theanine) and the potential benefits and risks of microdosing psilocybin mushrooms. Listeners gain insights into pharmacological and behavioral methods for managing social anxiety, along with a cautionary note on the potential side effects of various substances.
