Too Busy to Breathe

Description

Do you ever feel anxious for no reason- even when you can rationally explain that everything’s fine? Too Busy to Breathe was written for the people who look like they’re doing great on the outside but quietly living with high-functioning anxiety no one else can see.

You’re the one who holds it together. The capable one, the reliable one, the person everyone counts on. You answer the emails, remember the birthdays, keep every plan running in your head. And underneath all of it, you’re tired in a way sleep doesn’t touch.

Written by therapist Patrice Flanagan Morris, LCSW, Too Busy to Breathe isn’t a book about doing self-care better or fixing your morning routine. It’s an honest look at the ways you learned to keep everything running- the perfectionism, the overthinking, the people-pleasing, the packing your feelings away to deal with later- and how the very strategies that once protected you are now quietly driving your burnout.

Because the feelings you don’t let yourself feel don’t disappear. They just wait.

There’s another way to live- one where you’re not just surviving your life, but actually living one that feels good. This book is where it starts.
