00:00imagine you have a smoke alarm in your brain and its only job is to spot danger and sound the
00:07alarm now if the sensitivity dial is set normally it only rings for real smoke but if the dial is
00:14turned up the alarm is too sensitive and it goes off for almost anything causing you to feel
00:22danger and if you panic when this happens and try to escape the feeling well you're essentially
00:29turning up that sensitivity dial and this cycle gets stronger and stronger over time but if you
00:36just let it ring and you don't react to it like it's an actual emergency over time that sensitivity
00:43dial will turn back down the cycle will be broken and your anxiety will subside
