About AnxietyBuddha

To answer most of the questions about AnxietyBuddha we have answered the who, what, when, where, and how. If you have a question that is not answered here, let us know. We are happy to answer and help in any way we can.

Who?
The AnxietyBuddha is a man who is presently living his life being as present and in harmony with his anxiety as he can be in the given moment. He is on a journey in this life and has somehow brought along a suitcase of anxiety that is his for this time around. Sometimes his anxiety is high, sometimes it is low, sometimes it is not present at all—therein lies the adventure.

The AnxietyBuddha is not a practicing Buddhist. If you asked him if he was a Buddhist he would say no. He does find many of the ideas and philosophies of Buddhism very relevant to understanding and getting to the root of his own anxiety and has found this to be very powerful in awakening an understanding in him about his own anxiety that he previously did not have.

What?
AnxietyBuddha.com’s purpose is to let people who live with anxiety and panic to know they are not alone. We believe that everyone who has lived with anxiety has a shared experience. Your type of anxiety may manifest itself in ways different than others, but the feelings, thoughts and emotions have great similarity among us all.

This web site contains stories, anecdotes, quotations, strategies, and real-world experiences of living a life to its fullest with any anxiety-related condition. The stories and thoughts are real and honest.

When?
The AnxietyBuddha will publish posts multiple times a week, as time permits for he has a family and an occupation other than writing for the blog. Should the opportunity present itself, the AnxietyBuddha would make this a full-time occupation.

Where?
The AnxietyBuddha lives in California (go figure) where the sun shines everyday*, the weather is sweet, and the people are friendly.

Why?
Because if you live with any form of anxiety or panic you need to know that you are not alone. There are other people that share your experience. Through this shared experience we can share thoughts, perspectives, strategies, successes, and failures with how to live your life to its fullest.

How?
Through the medium of blogging, that’s how. Using Wordpress software, a combination of plugins for extra functionality, and writing about a life being lived with anxiety, this website creates a way to share information, collaborate and communicate about living with anxiety.

*There are literally a handful of days that the sun does not shine where the AnxietyBuddha resides.
