Articles on Depression and Anxiety from Dr. Scott

Panic attacks often continue not because of big triggers, but because of the fear they’ll happen again. Avoidance makes life smaller, but recovery skills build resilience. Dr. Scott explains how breathwork, grounding, mantras, and “skillful distraction” can stop panic attacks from ruling your life.

Therapy often feels vague or contradictory. Dr. Scott explains a simple, science-based framework: treat mental health like a system. You can’t change depression directly, but you can track four key resources—time, energy, attention, and money—and measure how they affect recovery.

Anxiety routines may feel protective, but they often trap you in over-preparation and exhaustion. Dr. Scott shares six strategies—from small disruptions to universal coping tools—that help break the cycle and prove you can handle life without rehearsing every detail.
