It's been an incredibly difficult year for everyone, and for many of us, there has been long periods of isolation.

Now that things are starting to open up slowly, friends are starting to meet but for some people, that can bring huge amounts of anxiety.

In a Mind Yourself Now special, chartered psychologist and musician Louize Carroll joined Dermot and Dave with some tips on flexing our social muscles again and when to know if you need to seek guidance on your worries.

All week on Dermot and Dave, we're going to help you get ready for the new normal this summer with a panel of Mind Yourself Now experts. We'll be looking at everything from skin to productivity, sleep to anxiety and our experts will be answering your questions in a special Facebook live on Friday at 1:30.
