Last night, I was having a nice sleep when my eyes popped open and suddenly I remembered an email I forgot to send. And then I was just left wondering if my right eye should be as itchy as it was. Here's the thing. Anxiety does not pay attention to business hours. It shows up on the weekends, on vacation, and yes, after hours. But therapy can help. Having someone to talk to about those things on your mind can turn fitful nights into dreamy bliss. If you've been waiting to start therapy, BetterHelp says it works with more than 125 health plan networks and that eligible members have an average copay of just $23 per session with insurance. Don't have insurance or don't live in the United States? You can still get 10% off your first month. Visit BetterHelp.com/radiolab to explore your payment options. That's better.
