Hey, fam! I’m Maryah and I'm a filmmaker, AuDHDer, photographer, a woman with anxiety, a writer, and many, many, MANY more things. Long story short, I am a storyteller who cares a whole lot about mental health. This is a place where I talk about BOTH storytelling and mental health because I believe they are interconnected. After all, storytelling aims to connect with the audience on a deeper level. My goal is to explore the relationship between storytelling and mental health and to create a community where we can be seen, heard, understood, and discover ourselves.

7. anxiety is not a villain from inside out 2 & it protects us from rejection pt. 1 with valeria rusnak

*This episode contains spoilers*

I think we all know what anxiety feels like and it's not a pleasant feeling. It's estimated that 2.7% of U.S. adults are diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder and to be honest, I think it's probably higher than that.

If you have seen Inside Out 2 already, then you know that Anxiety's character is a pretty good representation of... anxiety. Yet, I've seen so many misconceptions about the character/emotion and how it's a bad guy and blah blah blah, buuuut that's far from the truth. Anxiety has good intentions but goes about it wrong and that's generally what our anxiety does. One of the biggest factors that Anxiety wants is to keep Riley safe from rejection. But why does Anxiety do this? Well, I had the pleasure of inviting guest speaker Valeria Rusnak for her insight on Anxiety from Inside Out 2 and how it protects us from rejection.

Valeria Rusnak is the host and producer of The Rejected Pre-Med podcast, a show dedicated to exploring resilience and mental wellness for those navigating setbacks and rejection. Through her podcast, Valeria shares stories and resources, interviewing guests who open up about their journeys, all aimed at fostering compassion, self-reflection, and growth in the face of adversity. Living with strong tendencies toward anxiety and Obsessive-Compulsive Personality, Valeria offers support to anyone struggling with uncertainty in their path while navigating uncertainty in her own life. Based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Valeria is passionate about helping listeners find strength and perspective, and she’s excited to share her insights on Inside Out 2 in today’s discussion.
