NOTE FROM TED: As the speaker states, please do not look to this talk for mental health advice and seek professional help if you are struggling. This talk only represents the speaker's personal understanding of the causes of anxiety, which may be stigmatizing to viewers with anxiety disorders. We've flagged this talk because it falls outside the content guidelines TED gives TEDx organizers. TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here:

Our pursuit of an anxiety-free life is not medically necessary; ironically, this is increasing the prevalence and severity of anxiety en masse. Conversely, when we allow ourselves to experience anxiety, we become more resilient and emotionally fit. This talk will challenge you to transcend your anxiety by embracing uncertainty, and courageously confronting what you have been avoiding! When we take this approach, anxiety becomes a catalyst for human thriving. David H. Rosmarin is the author of Thriving with Anxiety: 9 Tools to Make Your Anxiety Work for You. He is an associate professor at Harvard Medical School, a program director at McLean Hospital, and founder of Center for Anxiety, which provides services to over 1,000 patients/year in multiple states. Dr. Rosmarin is an international expert on spirituality and mental health, whose work has been featured in Scientific American, the Boston Globe, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and Good Morning America.
