I think I'm constantly like in therapy, I'm constantly using like stress and anxiety interchangeably. And so I feel like knowing that there is a difference is important. I think for me, I didn't actually realize that I had anxiety until like COVID started. I think some of that is based on my childhood and how I saw anxiety manifesting in one way.

I think for me, I didn't actually realize that I had anxiety until like COVID started. I think some of that is based on my childhood and how I saw anxiety manifesting in one way.

I thought that that was the only way that anxiety manifested. And I was like, oh, that's not what I'm experiencing. So I must not be anxious. And then I remember once COVID started happening, my anxiety was manifesting in these like nightly panic attacks. And I was like, oh, maybe I am anxious. And so I got into therapy.

Ultimately I started taking Lexapro and my anxiety and stress has, I've been able to manage it a lot better. But yeah, I mean, I also think it's interesting thinking about, and Brandon, maybe you can speak to this a little bit, is that like, I feel like right now we live in such a high stress environment. There's so much going on in the world that causes stress and anxiety.

But I also have to imagine that like, people had the same levels of high stress and high anxiety like 100 years ago. So is it that like our world or in our life is getting more stressful and anxiety producing? Or is it more of like you were saying with kids these days about how sources of stress and anxiety are just shifting?

Yeah, something that I think about when I think about him, because I feel like I'm always seeing his videos, like how-to videos on YouTube is while he's on this quest to either extend his life or live forever, what is his quality of life during all of these things? If you're taking 111 pills a day, if you're

If you're taking 111 pills a day, if you're

you know, if you have to step into these devices and do certain exercise, like, are you, like, I guess to him that's living, but to me, that's like, when do you have time to enjoy what life has to offer? Like you've spent your whole time living, trying to extend your life. Like, so I just, yeah, I feel like I just constantly thinking about that too.

Yeah, sorry. We can cut that out. Yeah, I don't think I can top... It's hard to give... an answer or final thoughts that are like tied up in a perfect bow because it's such a grand question and topic. But yeah, I think what everyone said, Deandre and Sheridan was really eloquently spoken.

And I just think for me, I'm trying to, while I get older and realize that life is short and time is precious, just trying to be present every day and enjoy life. you know, positive and positive things and challenging things and just look for opportunities to lean into everything that life has to offer.
