In this episode of Two Shrinks & A Mic, Dr. David Gross and Dr. Andrew Rosen take a deeper dive into anxiety disorders - what they are, where they come from, and why they affect so many people. From prehistoric brain wiring to modern-day panic attacks, they break down how anxiety shows up in the brain and the body, and why it can feel so overwhelming.
They explore the most common anxiety disorders today, including panic disorder, agoraphobia, health anxiety, and OCD, while unpacking how overthinking, avoidance, and even substance use are often tied into the struggle.
But here’s the good news: anxiety is highly treatable. Dr. Gross and Dr. Rosen share real-life experiences from their decades of practice and explain how cognitive behavioral therapy and proper support can retrain the brain, ease symptoms, and give people their lives back.
Whether you're struggling yourself or want to understand someone who is, this episode offers clarity, validation, and hope.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
