<p>Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes… but not the “moving house / new job” kind.</p><p></p><p>This week, Tim and J talk about an unnerving kind of change: the mental shift from running on autopilot to actually feeling like the main character in your own life.</p><p></p><p>J opens up about getting help after months of anxiety "stealing" his time – the work spirals, the constant “what if I panic?” loop, and what’s changed since meds and starting therapy (including the urge to “answer therapy correctly”… because obviously).</p><p></p><p>Then Tim gets into what quitting smoking has unlocked: more friction, less reactive decision-making, more patience, and that strange lightbulb moment of realising “I’m in control here”. They get into dopamine, comfort habits, exercise “snacking”, sugar, and why progress doesn’t always feel dramatic – sometimes it just feels… quiet.</p><p></p><p>(Themes include anxiety, addiction, medication, and therapy.)</p>
