Feels like a sort of collective Stockholm Syndrome has taken hold. Too many of our fellow Americans have been taught to love powers that abuse them. We must continue to care for one another in an emotionally healthy and mentally rational way.
I had my 1st day of orientation in a new job and I was so overwhelmed that I took 2 days off. Going back to work tomorrow for my 2nd day, I got this. I need to remember that this feeling will pass.
You will be ok 😊. It’s completely normal to feel anxiety at a new job and as soon as you get some familiarity it will become normal and you’ll fit right in. Everyone experiences new job anxiety, you’re not alone. You got this!
Yesss she just announced recently a new focus for her channel on emotional resilience and I wonder if she had the upcoming election in mind when she did that.

My boyfriend and I can do this to help each other deal with how we feel in adulthood right now. We both have adhd and this is harder for people who have adhd to do anyway also having the added pressures society puts on us to have everything in order and handled 😒 grown ups might still need help too so don't be mean to people who aren't there yet.
Yes! This video points out to me how well I'm doing, because I DO step back a moment when I'm feeling something, and identify (sometimes use my emotions wheel) and say, I'm feeling x,y, z, and it will pass. Everybody has feelings, everybody feels things, it's ok to feel angry or scared or depressed, or whatever it is. I record it in my wheel, and I navigate life. I can take the driver's seat, not my amygdala. Example, two days ago I was fired. Yesterday I wanted to drink to get rid of the awful physical sensations I had in my stomach and head and limbs, but instead I used my coping tactics, I faced the anarchy of the situation, and went for a walk, then I played harp music at home and did a puzzle, had a cup of tea, and reminded myself that I'm safe, and of all the traumatic things I've already survived in life, and that this is just one little blib in the big picture, I know I can handle it. I'll be okay.
I love this and am ordering those cards ! I was raised by a parent quick to anger and it was absorbed most notably by my brothers , who appear to have followed in his footsteps , flying off the handle for the most minute things . I get overly nervous , anxious and filled with self doubt in new working experiences and would like to train my brain to cope and work through instead of fleeing when things become challenging ❤ But in general I love new experiences , like moving to new states , vacationing to new countries .. I guess it’s performing in new roles , where I have no idea what I’m doing that cause Ms me to freak out a little .
The labeling of emotions, from my experience, has been one of the best things I have done for my mental health. Growing up, I was essentially taught to ignore them - so as an adult, I'd feel all these negative (even positive) emotions and not know how to process them. I first came across this concept a few years ago reading the book about childhood emotional neglect by Jonice Webb. One big thing that I noticed is that the act of intentionally labeling your emotions helps you separate yourself from your emotions. You don't want to identify as those emotions as that can lead you to try to hold onto them. Emotions are fleeting. It has been best for me to identify them, feel them (without judgment), and let them go. Love the video!
Dr. Tracy Marks, I really love your approach. You empower people to get better, laying the cards down on the table. This builds trust by putting a person in control rather than takes it away and encourages a person to be far more actively participating in their recovery. It's so simple and a win win for everyone.
I've spent the last couple of days so overwhelmed and feeling like I'm losing control. I've been so tense and crying all the time so it was really helpful hearing this, it's given me hope that I can get better with time. Thank you.
I'm realizing that the psychiatrist who knows, the things I learn from this site, can actually help me grow out of my past emotional and psychological mayhem that controls my subconscious routines.
It's tempting to ask, "why didn't I get this knowledge in the expensive colleges I attended. The professors weren't privvy to this information because it's only been developed recently. At least in the form that our modernist understanding readily digests.
Don't get me wrong. I've liked, saved, and already shared this video. Just letting you know that the expression is, for future use, "I could NOT care less." If I could care less, that means I do care some.
WOW. Practiced the first exercise (Savoring the Senses) with my water bottle, and afterward could literally feel warmth and calmness flooding behind my eyes. Calming, for sure. Incredible. I'm 42 and recently experiencing some menopausal symptoms like anxiety and brain fog. This will help when I'm in a random place or moment, and the anxiety hits me out of nowhere. I can just take 30 seconds to savor my senses to achieve a sense of calmness. Thank you!

Thank you Dr marks for this wonderful video. I was having these feelings of Doom and being overwhelmed for almost 4 years now but somehow today I feel wonderful.
I just wanted to let you know that your videos have helped me immensely this past year. Thank you for sharing these lessons with all of us who could really use guidance with knowing where to start in developing better mindfulness and emotional regulation.
I lived my life unaware of having an early childhood trauma which had caused most everything I've endured since 1961, including the awful pain of Cancer. The effects of the trauma caused me to be unaware of being emotionally abused by my older brother until the age of 14, and shared a br with the nut until I was 6. Then I tangled with 2 narc brothers-in-law, who split up my wife's family of 7 girls. The only medical care I received was emergency care by a nurse who happened to be living in our rear apartment in 1961
I'm a older neuroscience student currently in college and I'm also recovering from from SUD. This is really good information to keep on hand. I keep a tiny journal in my bag and I wrote down the steps to both of these practices in it. The journal also has a small pocket in the back of it where I keep a coin that I got when I completed my recovery program. It's a little bigger/heavier than a quarter with designs carved into it that are really easy to feel, so it's the perfect item for this practice. I kind of had been using it before in the same way I just didn't realize it. Mixed with the steps that you've given, this is perfect for an "emergency emotion regulation kit" lol. I'm really loving the new videos that you've put out because I know these techniques work. I like that you're doing extra focus a neurobiology and physiology, which is particularly salient for me considering it's my major lol. For anybody wondering, these things absolutely do work, but you have to keep practicing them. No exaggeration, I have literally changed my life by doing practices like this and I'm always excited to add more tools like this to my arsenal.
Mine too, friend! My shoulders are constantly tense all day long. This too shall pass and we can get through this 💗 remember there are still millions of good people out there
2 strats: 1. savor senses - fully focus deeply on one sense for 20-30s. feel self after. - this divert brain from the overwhelm by activating brain sensory processoring centor, creating a sense of control. 2. label emotions. -pause, then identify emotions, and acknowledge/accepts. (reevaluate) - this activates prefrontal cortex, calming down the amygdula.
Hi Dr Marks! I've always loved your videos. You are *AMAZING!* OK, crazy idea here: do a team video with the Midwest Magic Cleaning channel. Ok, hear me out. This guy has the heart of a therapist but hardly any of the theory. He's very self-aware & as he's cleaning the places of his clients, he's deeply considerate of where they are & what they're going through. I just think it's one of those ideas that's so goofy it might just work. 😋 Take care & thank you for such an amazing channel! Sincerely, MagicReason
I feel almost daily overwhelmed by my emotions. Apparently Im hypersensitive something thst was denied from me since childhood bc men dont cry. Well repressing for 26 years something doesn't end well. Now Im constantly feeling too much. Wanting to cry. Im scared of everything. My self defense mechanism are triggered by my imagination. Therapy have helped but only to understand better and have some new tools. But they feel so weak to the levels that my emotions grow. And is just tiring. Why I have to fight against myself every day to just do the most basics chores. Getting a job feels impossible. There is already a huge problem with jobs in my country and how Im supposed to get one. I cant even go to an interview without panic attacks. It feels such a lost cause... i want to give up but I cant even kill myself, even that is taken from me by the utter fear of pain and discomfort that suicide means. Im so tired. Just so tired...
I really like your content and energy! Just a suggestion: consider avoiding disability terms as metaphors, like 'leaving us feeling paralyzed.' Using 'paralyzed' in this way can be ableist, as it overlooks the lived experiences of those with paralysis. Alternatives like 'leaving us feeling stuck' or 'overwhelmed' might work better. Thanks!
Thanks so much. I did the savoring touch exercise and it helped me to relax really quickly. That sense seems especially useful because you could do self-soothing gentle touch, like an arm rub, and benefit twice in a way.
In stressful situations, I find bilateral stimulation very helpful. This can be done using the butterfly hug technique. I bought a product called Bi-Tapp which is two small devices that vibrate back and forth. It's expensive at over $300, but it's much easier to do this since you can wear them on your wrists and let it do the "tapping" for you. If you have FSA/HSA dollars to spend, I would recommend it.
I've been labeling the emotion since day 1... I would tell her... I like you a lot, I don't know why I do when I know I shouldnt... and I still tell her that. Being in a d/s relationship has put me in a broken spiral when my domme ignores me.
I am currently feeling constantly overwhelmed. I am doing my PhD at a foreign country, loosing my contract with the university by the end of the year, I have no clarity about my future with the residency permit. I am constantly stressed and overwhelmed, because it feels like there is zero stability in my life. I was surprised to figure out that my photography hobby that I usually pick up during such crises is exactly the first exercise. I’ve never been able to understand all this thing with anchoring back to the present moment through the concentration on one sensory stimulus. But I do literally the same with photography. You choose a scene, decide which story you want to tell, how objects are located next to each other, their composition, colors, etc…
Thanks for the advice. i still have a question concerning the example of naming the emotions with cards. In your example the person is feeling resentful and realises it is based on an assumption about their boss' intentions, so they are able to let go of the assumption and the linked resentfulness. But what if the assumption is eventually confirmed and it makes the person legitimately resentful? How do you regulate it with this method of naming emotions? Can emotions be regulated independently if the reality of their cause?
Hi Dr. Marks, is there a difference between a feeling and an emotion? Or are they one in the same? I’d like to be exact when describing my mood or state of being, thanks.
Thank you doctor❤ may I ask you for a video oriented to med students? Please! About what you estimate. You’ve help me so much in my personal life and studies. I’m now in the 12th out of 14th semesters of medicine. Greetings from Chile!🇨🇱
Nobody in a US medical program is allowed to have any feelings, let alone express them. Don't come here for work unless you are prepared for that. Even psychiatric rotations expect clinicians to shoulder things without feeling much. We run our doctors into the ground and then wonder why they behave the way they do. Many of them leave medicine and become lawyers or go into research to escape this.
I use these two skills all the time and I am still as emotionally disregulated as I could be this week. This is really basic stuff and it doesn’t get you far. At least it didn’t get me far. This is old news.
This would need enough mindfulness to stop and do one of these strategies. I find an amygdala hijack/ emotion flashbacks of cPTSD are not always obvious in the moment.
You're doing a fantastic job! I have a quick question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Thank you ...we can't deal effectively with life's challenges unless we can be fully present and have clarity of thought. Perfect timing for post election Shockwave.
Hey doc, I noticed before my five year old had a behavior she stated I'm going out the window in a joking manner. Later in the day when she had a behavior she motioned for the window seeking escape. She quickly assessed that was not an option and was dangerous. She didn't seek that as an option for escape. So, when people say things jokingly or in conversation can they hold some truth? I wonder how often those extreme statements hold truth.

Feelings today: betrayal, grief, anxiety, and then anger.
Hey doc, I noticed before my five year old had a behavior she stated I'm going out the window in a joking manner. Later in the day when she had a behavior she motioned for the window seeking escape. She quickly assessed that was not an option and was dangerous. She didn't seek that as an option for escape. So, when people say things jokingly or in conversation can they hold some truth? I wonder how often those extreme statements hold truth.
What are the tools for the labels, fear and helpless?
This does not help with panic attacks or severe anxiety. It is very difficult 😢💔
Appreciate this content.
Thanks a lot 🙏🏽
