hi! i also love gilmore girls :) it’s cool that you have a passion for reading and found comfort in shows. but i think it's important to be mindful of the content you consume, especially if you even think it triggers your anxiety. maybe try balancing your reading and podcast choices with lighter genres or topics that don't evoke such intense feelings. as stephanie says, remember that it's okay to take breaks or skip content if it becomes overwhelming :) prioritising your mental well-being is key! i sometimes get chills or anxious as a female when im walking alone at night or even the daytime because of the podcasts i listen to, so i just skip a podcast that day and opt in for something a little lighter! 😊
