@npr: Aparna Nancherla is tapping into her ancestral rage. Anxiety has always played a major role in Aparna's comedy — whether she's joking about her internal preoccupations, or fighting stage fright. Her experience of living with anxiety and depression as a stand-up comedian landed her in the upcoming documentary, "Anxiety Club." She spoke with Rachel about feeling godlike when she's alone. Watch the full interview at the link in bio. #NPR

I'm dying to know: folks who didn't have rage issues their whole lives, is it scary to experience the peri rage?

You’ve only STARTED screaming in your car at this age? Have we not all been doing this since we learned to drive?

I've spent 25 years of my life with fluctuating hormones and dysfunction (PCOS), it makes me angry knowing it'll be worse when I hit menopause.

You need the We Do Not Care club! Melani Sanders, about perimenopause and menopause and it’s very funny and relatable since you’re talking about screaming in your car.
