The Desperate Price of Loneliness
มุมมอง 1711 หลายเดือนก่อน
Though our need to connect is innate, many of us frequently feel alone. Loneliness is the state of distress or discomfort that results when one perceives a gap between one’s desires for social connection and actual experiences of it. Even some people who are surrounded by others throughout the day (or even in a long-lasting marriage) still experience deep and pervasive loneliness. Research sugg...
Hopelessness and Joy
มุมมอง 2411 หลายเดือนก่อน
Feeling hopeless may be a natural, universal response to personal and world events that impact our lives. It can also be a symptom of depression, adjustment disorders, and other mental health conditions. Joy is a natural part of us, and we’re wired to feel it. If you’ve spent any time with a child, you’ve witnessed how much joy we’re capable of feeling. Sadly, many of us lose our sense of joy a...
Depression and Anxiety Two Sides of the Same Coin
มุมมอง 3811 หลายเดือนก่อน
Are you anxious or are you depressed? In the world of mental health care, where exact diagnosis dictates treatment, anxiety and depression are regarded as two distinct disorders. But in the world of real people, many suffer from both conditions. In fact, most mood disorders present as a combination of depression and anxiety. Surveys show that 60-70% of those with depression also have anxiety. A...
Gluttony Ain’t No Stoppin’ Us Now
มุมมอง 8ปีที่แล้ว
Gluttony is the over-indulgence and over-consumption of food and drink, and it’s something pretty much all of us are guilty of from time to time. We all love to eat, and we especially crave rich, calorie-packed foods. Knowing that we shouldn’t often makes little difference. How often has your willpower collapsed at the sight of a scrumptious chocolate cake? Our drive to eat goes way beyond basi...
Toxic People Signs to Watch For and What to Do
มุมมอง 35ปีที่แล้ว
“There are two types of people, those who contribute and those who detract. You must learn that the best way to build your career and your life is through your own achievements, not by attacking the achievements of others. People will always remember what type of person you are, and they will trust or distrust you accordingly.” Seldom have I heard words that were truer or more genuinely wise. P...
States of Human Development and Those That Missed Them
มุมมอง 16ปีที่แล้ว
Developmental psychologists often use several theories to think about various aspects of human development. For example, a psychologist assessing intellectual development in a child might consider Piaget's theory of cognitive development, which outlines the key stages that children go through as they learn. A psychologist working with a child might also want to consider how the child's relation...
Serial Marriage and Incompatability
มุมมอง 31ปีที่แล้ว
If you’re like most people, you figure you’ll get married once - maybe twice - in your entire life. However, if you’re a serial monogamist (a person who engages in repeated serious relationships, one after the other), you might marry three, four, five, or more times during your life. But what drives someone to become a serial monogamist? Do they begin with psychological issues, or do they simpl...
Toxic Shame and Guilt
มุมมอง 20ปีที่แล้ว
Although many people use the two words "guilt" and "shame" interchangeably, from a psychological perspective, they refer to different experiences. Guilt and shame sometimes go hand in hand; the same action may give rise to feelings of both shame and guilt, where the former reflects how we feel about ourselves and the latter involves an awareness that our actions have injured someone else. In ot...
How Your Personality Traits Can Impact Your Life
มุมมอง 25ปีที่แล้ว
From eccentric and introverted to boisterous and bold, the human personality is a complex and colorful thing. Personality refers to a person's distinctive patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving. It derives from a mix of innate dispositions and inclinations along with environmental factors and experiences. Although personality can change over a lifetime, one's core personality traits tend t...
Dramatic People Signs of Histrionic Drama
มุมมอง 89ปีที่แล้ว
When we think of people being dramatic - or in this case, overly dramatic - we think of them making much of their appearance before others. They enjoy feeling and displaying emotions. They have a taste for tension-filled scenes. They want others to know how they are interpreting a situation and how it is affecting them. The only thing that matters, or so it seems, is what is happening now. Dare...
Autism Spectrum Disorder Life on the Spectrum
มุมมอง 16ปีที่แล้ว
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental disorder that involves impairments to social interaction and communication, challenges with sensory processing, and repetitive behaviors. The term "spectrum" reflects the fact that symptoms vary across different individuals, ranging in type and severity. ASD is an umbrella diagnosis in the DSM-5, replacing the four pervasive developmental disord...
Caring for Narcissistic Parents
มุมมอง 163ปีที่แล้ว
The biggest problem with narcissistic parents is that, in trying to build their children up, they fail to recognize and support their child’s independent sense of self. Instead, the child feels a heavy amount of pressure from their parents. They may carry fears of falling short and the sense that they will never be good enough. Their insecurities may lead them to become narcissistic themselves,...
Healing a Broken Heart
มุมมอง 13ปีที่แล้ว
It’s normal for us to need time to ruminate and go over a romantic break-up in minute detail when we feel like we were the one who was dumped. Break-ups can qualify as traumatic events and telling and re-telling the break-up story is a relatively normal reaction if it was traumatic for you. However, if you’re telling the same story two or three months after the break-up to the same friends; fee...
How Do I Know If I Am Depressed
มุมมอง 17ปีที่แล้ว
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is more than simply feeling sad, experiencing grief, or being super drained of energy. Those feelings are valid, but like most feelings, they’ll eventually pass. MDD is an often-debilitating mental illness that presents as a cluster of depressive symptoms. For most people, clinical depression won’t go away on its own and you can’t “just snap out of it.” While mel...

Thank you! 😊

Excellent Material
thank you
Please do a video on how to deal with the flying monkeys. Is keeping relationships with them possible if they can't see what they are doing? I'm sick of loosing family, but I have zero tolerance for the gaslighting and blameshifting they have bought in to and use themselves.
This is my whole family. Drama and chaos. It is satanic influence that drives these people. They have been given over to a depraved mind. It's quite unnerving witnessing the crazy making behaviour they use to try and manipulate everyone around them. They are liars and deceivers.
Awesome teaching 😊 thanks
I can listen to you all day . I just love the way you broke this down%. Gave me an eye opener . Thanks 👍
Thank you for this lesson and the one on resentment. It has made me realize that I am not the problem. My husband has issues from his past that he needs to deal with to be a good partner. Thanks!
Any studies in the referring to telling children the lie about Santa, (saint nick, father Christmas) and religious notions
Is it religion or is it a need for personal development in righteousness
It's hard after all dignity and respect from our fellow man, has been destroyed, by the system and diagnosis to look forward for better days
A question is there in fact evil people that' purposely try to destroy u, mentally
As someone with a depressive personality type. This was helpful for me to reason within, about my incorrect rationality. What truly helps me progress is my stress levels are very low,
As a Christian I hear the bible talk about the king of the north, saying he didn't think in his heart he could course war, but that he did, I see each one of us might not believe our own corrupt nature which is dormant in us
This is 100% my sister. 7yrs younger. Everything was always a crisis. I had to stop everything and talk it thru for hours - forget that I had grad school exams etc etc. Had to find her RA when she was in college to see if she was OK. Had to uphold her thru everything. When she had a devastating incident while abroad w her husband - she complained to my parents that I wasn’t there for her enough had she taken a moment to ask how I was doing she would have seen my life was no cakewalk. She vented and vented and when you tried to give her help she would say “ya but….” Nothing helped. Ever. Then one day I said “you need to stop saying that my life is easier than yours”. She would always compare and blow my life off as easier. When I said that - it was tue end of our relationship. She again at the age of 37 complained to our parents about me. Again. Then she cut it off saying I was dramatic and abusive towards her (for having boundaries and confronting her off the cuff remarks). And that was that. Unfortunately she wanted me out of her life but not my husband and kids. She said I couldn’t take HER family away from her. And my parents sadly agreed. So here I am 14 years later still balancing that my husband and adult kids still see her but I have no contact. She even tried to split me and my husband up - AND talk to my mother in law about how I was not a good wife for my MIL’s son. And rumors of infidelity were going to be spread before my mil put a stop to it. 31:30 It’s crazy-making. But I have a life without her now and my husband and kids know who I am. My friends and family know who I am. Thank you for this. Spot on.
Thank you so much for this and other videos. This is so very helpful. I wish I could share this w the person that needs it. So how do you stay in a relationship when the partner gaslights you? After some time - you break down and it is easier to leave than keep hearing personal attacks. I’m not selfish. I’m not lazy. I’m not unhealthy. I’m not physically NOT fit. I’m not all the things thrown at me for the past 10 years. Sooooo. I argue perspectives. I try to change perspectives. Why? Bc I don’t want my partner to think these things about me. How can I live w someone who thinks such things. It is so hard when instead of agreement or an apology I get: “You didn’t hear me right.” Or “That’s not what I was saying” or “it shouldn’t matter what I think”. How the heck does one resolve those character attacks from a gaslighter. If I say “Sorry you think that way.” And move on - it does nothing or very little for my healing. At some point tue gas lighter will lose the pleasure of my sharing my life w them.
Gary I miss you much you were the you’re the best the Counselor that I’ve ever had but you moved to Seattle😭I left you a voicemail is there any possible to connect with you again my marriage is falling apart

Ignorance & Paranoia: Madness: Human Willingness Is Distinctive of Human Intention, and Ignorance Can Not Self-Pre-Serve: Madness Can Not Plan. 1. Ignore Definition: "refuse to take notice of or acknowledge; disregard intentionally." : Ignore Etymology: "late 15th century (in the sense ‘be ignorant of’): from French ignorer or Latin ignorare ‘not know, ignore’, from in- ‘not’ + gno-, a base meaning ‘know’. Current senses date from the early 19th century." 2. Ignorance Etymology: "Middle English: via Old French from Latin ignorantia, from ignorant- ‘not knowing’ (see ignorant)." 3. Paranoia Etymology: "mid 18th century (in paranoia (sense 2)): modern Latin, from Greek, from paranoos ‘distracted’, from para ‘irregular’ + noos ‘mind’." 4. Madness Etymology mad | Etymology, origin and meaning of mad by etymonline Respectively. Tanika Nakeya Lewis, 6127
Amazing….
I have a fear of indecisive men.
Absolute nonsense!!! The type of dynamic you're explaining is the dynamic of a simp. 'A guy who caters to a woman's desires with the ideology of scarcity and fear of losing her'. A man path is to conquer the world around him and to come home to a peaceful, feminine, subservient woman. A man who's living his purpose (examples: building businesses, investing, inventing/ creating new products) is a man who attracts women or in marriage, is a man who keeps his wife satisfied by the lifestyle he creates. "Happy wife, happy life" is the philosophy you're teaching it's backwards. "Happy LIFE happy WIFE" is the correct philosophy for a successful relationship.
Colossians 2:8
This is extremely informative and makes me sympathetic to victims of gaslighting. I like how Dr. Bell states that the gaslighter is not evil (Eph. 6: 12) but it's how they grew up and sad.
Thank you ♥️
Your video (and website) has just reached Southern Brazil! I can't have enough words to thank you!!!❤️
