Ho Dr. Matthews!

I'm currently sitting my MSc. in Applied Psychology and hoping to do my PhD soon after too. It's great to see such information being spread so thank you for doing this informative AMA.

I'm wondering if you see any similarities with therapies for speaking anxiety and other forms of anxiety?

The reason I ask this is because I was always a very non-anxious person for most of my life. But I very quickly, and unknowingly, started getting anxiety and panic attacks from air travel. Then this year, when giving some presentations on some of my work, I could feel the same feeling of anxiety creep in. I needed to nip it in the butt, but I find it interesting how two drastically different things can have such a similar effect.

The ironic thing is, I'm also a musician, and perform in front of hundreds of people every week. Not a lick of anxiety in any of those shows.

Thanks for taking the time to read the message!

I never knew there was a Disney World in Vegas. I'll be heading to Vegas and several cities in California next year. If I had to pick one, would you recommend Disney world Vegas or Anaheim?

Oohhh that makes sense. Anaheim it is so!
