A Brief Break... but Back with Renewed Spirit

It's been a couple of weeks since we produced any content here at Easing Anxiety (EA). That includes the monthly Benzo Free Podcast which I typically release the first of each month. My apologies to those of you who may have been looking for the latest from EA. Please believe me, we're not going anywhere.

The truth is, I took a couple of weeks to get organized.

Doryn is away on vacation and I wanted to spend some time catching up on emails, setting up a project tracking system, and working on infrastructure projects for the website that I've been putting off for some time now. In addition, the Benzodiazepine Action Work Group and the benzo research teams I'm on also keep me quite busy. I've made a lot of progress these past couple of weeks and I'm grateful to have the time to catch up. Our blog posts will resume starting today and we'll continue to produce a minimum of 2-3 each week.

As for the podcast, there are a few changes here. I'm skipping the October podcast for now as we revamp our process. Starting soon,

there will be two podcasts. The original Benzo Free Podcast will continue, alongside a new podcast more focused on life and anxiety. These will be produced each month, so we will double our podcast production.

Also, we'll be adding video back to most of our podcasts and even live stream some of them. This includes a redesign of our studio in addition to several technical enhancements. So, keep your eyes peeled for those coming soon.

Well, I'm going to wrap that up here. I just wanted to let you all know that we are still here, and that this short break was necessary to get things headed in the right direction. Doryn will be back in another week or so, but she left me a blog post to send your way while she is gone.

Thanks for your patience and support these past several years. You are the heart and soul of EA. Thank you.

Please take care of yourself,

and I'll see you real soon,

D :)
