Welcome back to Squares and Circles! Join me, Ellie, in this weeks episode as we discuss the lasting impact of lockdown on social anxiety. I share personal experiences and research findings, revealing how isolation and social media pressures during lockdown heightened anxiety levels in young adults. Discover practical tips like understanding your fears, practicing mindfulness, and embracing exposure therapy to overcome post-lockdown anxiety. Let’s navigate this journey together! ☀️See you next time!
