So we look for anxiety to be of help to us, to guide us and to let us know what we're supposed to be doing and not doing. I care for a lot of teenagers clinically, and, you know, I will say to them, if you walk into a party that you thought was going to be a little get-together, and it turns out it's kind of, you know, wild and you feel anxious, pay attention to that reaction.
Por lo tanto, buscamos que la ansiedad nos ayude, nos guíe y nos diga qué debemos hacer y qué no. Atiendo clínicamente a muchos adolescentes y a ellos les digo: “Si llegan a una fiesta que pensaban iba a ser una pequeña reunión, y resulta que es una fiesta desenfrenada, y se sienten ansiosos, presten atención a esa reacción.
