- People experience anxiety in different ways. Your idea of how anxiety appears might not always align with how it presents itself. You may not notice traces of anxiety in someone who grapples with it internally and in private. To end the misconception and stigma, we made this video to raise awareness.
It is important to remember to always be kind, as you may never fully realize what others are struggling with when they are alone. If you are dealing with anxiety, know that you are not alone in facing these challenges.

Totally relate to all of them. My anxiety has led to depression. And has left me totally alone. I have no friends and even avoid family. I can't stop thinking about all my past mistakes. And yes people around me think I am just lazy and don't want to do anything. It hurts so much! And you see no way out or end to the isolation and dread.
Absolutely relate to everything you say. When I feel like doing something to get out of my own way, I always talk myself back into my sane behaviors.
My family and college think I’m lazy but I can’t stop feeling nervous even though I’ve been in the college for over a year , sometimes I feel like crying for no reason
Peace to you!!! I have had those symptoms- withdrawing- does your family know you are fighting serious depression?
Hi Terri. I could have typed your message myself. You aren't alone out there, feeling this way. I have lost almost all contact with friends and family too. Even my cats stay away from me most of the time. Interaction with people for 8 hours a day at work, doing what l now know is "surface acting", leaves me destroyed at the end of the day. I come home, microwave something, then drink a bottle of wine and stare at the wall, instead of cleaning my dirty house.
Then, l have a panic attack when my alarm goes off the next morning, and so on.
I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. I bet you are a really beautiful person that is a lot of fun to be with, but this disorder has taken that truth away from you, like it has from me. Just remember that you are awesome. And it is ok to be awesome all by yourself! Or at least with people like us who "get" you! I bet you are full of great qualities like a sense of humor no one gets, are really smart and emotional, and have a smile that lights up a room. 🐱
I don't see a way out for myself and have lost myself in depression too. I am probably a lot older than you and it is too late for me to find "happiness", whatever that is, but l bet you can. I hope so. I may just be a voice in the wilderness but l am pulling for you, Terri. We can do this.
@@geoffreylogsdon162 Thank you for your reply. It helps to know I'm not alone. As for you being a lot older than me, all I can say is I just reached the half a century mark in April. lol Thanks again
Man, I really do see a lot of myself in this. Huge overthinker, procrastinator, and I have a hard time leaving my comfort zone. I've been doing better lately, since I've been trying to be more aware of these things and making sure they don't get the better of me, but I definitely get how it feels
Hey just want to say amazing job on raising your awareness towards your anxiety. It’s not easy to do especially after finding comfort in the same habits for a while, so just wanted to let you know you’re doing awesome and keep it up :)
if u need someone to vent to im here
Hey there! If you're dealing with anxiousness, I want you to know that hypnotherapy can really help. It works by accessing your subconscious mind to address the negative thoughts and beliefs that contribute to anxious feelings.
As a hypnotherapist, I help clients with hypnotherapy as an effective and natural treatment option that can give you back a sense of control and confidence.
So if you're struggling with anxiousness, consider giving hypnotherapy a try. It might just be the breakthrough you've been looking for.
It feels like a curse at times. Not being able to do something because of anxiety and then feeling left out or annoyed at yourself for not doing it. Plus overthinking makes you really tired but keeps you awake because you can't calm the thoughts. It's an uphill struggle every day but at least there are healthy ways to tackle it 😊
That’s exactly how I feel when my anxiety gets the best of me 😢
Hang in there Sammie your not alone in this

@@debyates4543 exactly and people who glide through life have no idea how tough it is to deal with..the simplest of tasks r a so hard to achieve....
I can relate totally to all of this. It is hard to explain this to people who love to socialise, I lose friends because i will avoid going out. I also struggle to keep up with tasks, people think you are lazy. Thank you for helping me and hopefully others to understand how difficult this can be to live with each day.
The problem is not that they don't understand, but most of them simply just don't even care.
I wish they would understand me, doing my school works is so difficult and my mom would scold me because I procrastinate a lot. I also lost a bunch of my school friends because they wanted us to go out, but going out and seeing other people/strangers makes me feel nervous af.
do u have any introverted friends? they might understand more
@@jiyoungbae8623 same same, i thought i am the only one who are nervous when seeing other people/strangers😩 (like they think i'm weird )
Sorry for my bad english hehe
Yep, same. When I was in highschool the people I used to hang out with, people that I thought that were my friends, they would constantly go out together and not invite me (most likely bc they already knew that I would refuse it) buuuuut they could have invite me anyways. I already know I'm an outcast but they would put me even more as an outcast.. It was sad. Another thing with me is that I don't really know how to express feelings or to feel empathy towards people, I don't really know how to react or how to "talk" cuz it gives me an extreme amount of anxiety so people think I'm rude.. Which it's not the case but people don't understand it at all and it's so annoying sometimes.. But oh well.
Nowadays I'm friendless and honestly I'm not mad about it, it's better than having to deal with people that don't even understand you at all.
Praying that everyone falls asleep quickly and has a peaceful sleep. Hope you all wake up happy and well rested 🎅🍓👑👒
Ty, you're so sweet ❤️❤️. I wish the same to you
You're sweet, I didn't but you're sweet. ❤
Tysm , and that cartoon in your pfp was some part of my childhood

Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with health issues like anxiety and depression, would like to try them but it's just hard to source out here.
I'm feeling the same way too. I put so much on my plate and it definitelv affects mv stress and anxietv levels
I am very interested when it comes to psychedelics which really helps to ease anxiety and depression.
Anyone know where I can source them?
Yeah doc.coby
Is he on Insta??
Yes
Well,i can confirm this is actually true.
It's so hard to explain to others tho:/
Especially when there's no one there to comfort you or to help you.
_I hope that it will actually get better._
Hey, we hope you'll get better too! Every small step is progress!
if u need to talk im here
Tysm for teaching people about anxiety, I have a friend who never understood ocd (not diagnosed, but most likely have it) and it always hurt me, but now I can send this to help him understand how I feel
I can relate to you. I have a lot of signs of depression but haven't been diagnosed yet
Yeah, and he always says to me “dont worry” “just dont think about it” “why do you overthink everything?” And i try to tell him it hurts me, and i try to explain it to him, but it doesn’t work sadly
Same with me but ADHD
Im in the process of getting diagnosed
We already know j have anxiety
You should get diagnosed, most people including me don't believe people who aren't diagnosed
You're welcome! We're happy to know we're able to help you out!
Definitely can relate. Scary when you’re aware of these things and force yourself into getting out of these habits, but they kinda get worse
Yeah!!! I sometimes push myself so hard that it becomes even more difficult to manage and then depression takes over. What I do is try to think 'what would my best friend say to me in this situation?' and then I say that to myself. Because I don't have to push myself so hard. I often end up kicking myself and judging myself too much and the best friend technique really helps with being kinder to myself. :) I hope this helps u
What ever you’re going through, Im here with you th-cam.com/video/8_BwXnE6fyU/w-d-xo.html 🖤🥲🤘🏽❗️🔥‼️🔥🖤
@@edgyedgelord477 thank God I'm not alone... I always felt like it was such a struggle, and couldn't understand why this wasn't getting easier. And then I lie in bed(which is my literal comfort zone), and just want to sleep. Not recognizing the depression taking hold until it's over...
I legit have to keep reminding myself now to take a bit of my attention, and focus it within. How am I feeling? Why am I feeling it? Is it an unfounded fear/anxiety? Etcetc.
I've made this checklist that I go through daily and it helps when things seem to be getting out of hand a little.
Nothing makes the anxiety go away mind you... But some things can help a smidgen.
Anxiety is awful.
My anxiety is physical. I shake, my face flushes, I feel dizzy, lightheaded and I have to avoid large areas.
@@donnscopman8102 I'm sorry you go through that.
Mine manifests itself in a deep HEAVY COLD feeling in my chest...almost like a hug ice block was placed there while I lay down, even if I'm standing up. Sometimes my teeth chatter if I let it go for too long, or I get "antsy" and can't sit still,I've got to move SOME part of my body...which drives my hubby nuts, because I like to click either my stylus,or a pen in response to this sensation...but he doesn't say anything about it until I've done it for like ...close to an hour. Most of the time I don't even realize I'm doing it tbh.
The anxiety takes ahold and grabs my full attention...
Physical reactions suck.
Anxiety sucks. You aren't alone.
I can relate to all of these. And one thing that wasn't mentioned is when I force myself to go out and interact with other people, when it's over and I go home I will pick apart every single second of the interactions I had until I convince myself that I looked like a total loser and sounded stupid, and whoever I had the interaction with thinks the same about me. Even total strangers! It could just be an interaction with the cashier at the store which seemed pleasant at the time that sets me off. It's all very stressful and makes the anxiety worse. Does anyone else experience this?
I recall once having to go to a social event and my jacket got snagged, nothing big but I remember getting upset and the evening hadn’t even started. My mom, bless her soul, said to me, “Many will see it but no one will notice”. Did you read through the other comments here? Everyone has their own insecurities and anxieties to deal with. Don’t let life pass you by. And if you do encounter any negative or judgmental people, ignore them, or better still, block them like you would a call or text. Look for people who think positive, are kind and genuine and collect them as if they are treasures you found. They will help elevate your soul. YOLO, so don’t be afraid to go out there and claim your life. 💖🌺☺️
I still literally get flashbacks of dumb/embarrassing things I said when I was at school.. I'm now 33 😂😂
This is exactly how I feel.
@@Vajazzle6996 💗🌺
I know exactly how you feel☹️
I struggle with social anxiety disorder and definitely do all 5 of these things. My anxiety is nowhere near as bad as it used to be a few years ago, but I do have my ups and downs. To anyone else out there struggling with anxiety, please know that you're not alone and asking for help is ok. ❤

I've gotten so good at hiding it though, that's the other thing. people think i'm happy go lucky but its so opposite to reality
@@xaraxania same.. I try to fake smile.. I’m the joker at school and I always have a smile and make people laugh but when I get home it’s the complete opposite. Mental breakdowns…I guess that’s how it is for me…
@@CringeEdits-sr3ho You aren't alone, If that helps at all to know
@@Kazhnique ty so much. Just you writing that makes me feel better
@@xaraxania exactly.
Anxiety like this has turned into deep depression for me that I don’t feel like I can beat this time. Sleeping used to help, but I can’t do that anymore until a couple hours before I need to wake up. Then just wake up to the pain all over and push through the day till I can attempt to sleep again. Thanks, overthinking. You’re a real gem 🤦🏻♀️
❤️❤️❤️
C.S. Lewis once wrote that if nothing in this world can bring me true satisfaction than the only logical conclusion is I am not of this world. I suggest that you are made for much greater things than this world can offer. This life, in this bodily form, is merely preparation for what is to come. It is in this life that we may first touch the divine.
Peace be with you Marie!
You are not alone in this at all. It is exhausting... but we will get through it. (Hug)
I can relate :( take care, you are loved and worth it❤️❤️❤️
Not trying to sound like an asshole but try changing your mindset to "it's not about me. You're here to serve others in this life." Whether you want to agree with that notion is up to you, but the intended effect is to help people, not only for distraction and sense of personal worth and well-being, but to shift your values and get yourself out of your head. You know how much time we have wasted overthinking shit?? Try volunteering at some local organization. You'd be surprised how attached people get to when they see people want to donate their time and effort.
Something else to keep you thinking: We likely all have an ideal person we want to be, right? If so, be the change you want to see. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, is going to do that for us. We have to figure that shit out. Let's get there!
I wondered why , for 20+ years I would always rewatch the same shows (including childhood shows) over and over again. I knew I had GAD (generalized anxiety disorder), and now it all connects! Thank you for the heads up!
I typically play the same games or watch the same movies again and again.
Funny how it all works, huh?
Im on my 100 time around of binge watching Roseanne, and there are a few episodes i can't watch because I get so anxious. Its hard for anyone without anxiety to understand. They don't know how blessed they are that they don't.
What ever you’re going through, Im here with you th-cam.com/video/8_BwXnE6fyU/w-d-xo.html 🖤🥲🤘🏽❗️🔥‼️🔥🖤
I watch many shows over and over myself as I don't tend to like getting into anything new. Though, I have been watching all the MCU & Star Wars shows lately.
My friends always think I’m crazy because I’ve watched h20 series like 1000 times
My favorite part of this channel is all of the anime/video game/tv show references
Which references do you like the best so far?
@@Psych2go the genshin references :)
I was literally watching one piece scenes before this ...
Tamaki was so cute •́ ‿ ,•̀
this makes me feel so much better knowing people actually deal with this stuff too. i honestly was scared i was the only one.
It effects alot of people more than anyone thinks.
💕
You are not alone. It's estimated that 1 out of 5 people suffer from some form of mental illness. Some people are just better at hiding it.
Kathy, I know right 👍.
Same shit makes me feel more comfortable and willing to get help because I know others are doing the same
I suffered BPD and severe anxiety for over 8 years. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment actually saved my life. 4 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here. and mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on this planet i wish people would all realize. they could solve a lot of problems, more than just mental treatments, environmental clean up; the possibilities are endless with fungus.
YES very sure of Dr.medshrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
was addicted to what i called a trifecta Meth, Opium, Alcohol. I also suffered severe depression i went to a party and consumed about 2g of shrooms i was lost in my head for 6 minutes but when i came back my depression and addiction to my trifecta was gone. I didn't realize it at the time. The psychedelic experience is temporary but many people have good permanent results
Does he ship? Can he deliver to me here in Netherlands 🇳🇱
Woah. I didn't realise how damaging my anxiety is, now that I've watched the video I think I'll try to get help. Anyone else experiencing these symptoms, you're not alone. I feel you. When was the last time you ate? You are powerful and awesome, here's your crown ✨👑✨
I am beginning to think that I'm an extrovert, but have not been able to do a lot of things I want to do, because I have always had a few skrews loose.
I relate too much to too many videos on this channel, and I realize I needed help eight years ago.
i ate joe last night
dont ask who he is
I've noticed that I become angry, anxious, or stressed more easily when I haven't eaten for a while -- and that eating helps me calm down (probably because eating, especially certain kinds of food, boosts production of the neurotransmitter serotonin which has an impact on mood and sleep).
It's also severely damaging to you physical health over time. Please don't push off getting help
if yall need to vent im here
I can relate to several of these, I avoid social events, I feel alone in a crowd, seldom able to engage in conversations, I stay in as much as possible, I would prefer not to answer my phone or check voicemails and messages or Facebook. I don’t watch TV, although I do binge watch TH-cam. I take medication for anxiety, and am able to fall asleep; at times, I wake up in the same position I fell asleep. Frequently I dream, dreams are usually about events in my life that were negative or about being unloved or emotionally neglected. I bury myself in hobbies like sewing, donating what I make. This post was very informative to me. I am not sure what I can do to change things. In a one on one meeting with my Dr. I can present myself as bright and cheerful, then leave and have lunch in my car alone from a drive thru. You’ve given me information that I can articulate to my doctor. Thank you.

Easy for someone like him -- a man who appears to have an ironclad ego! -- to say. Hell, that's easy for anyone to say who doesn't live with this day in and day out -- but like the mice in the fable who wanted to put a bell on the cat, talking about it is a lot easier than doing it.
@@OreadNYC Actually Eminem has been known to be very insecure. He just hides it with extra confidence and explicit content in his music but he suffers from Aspergers syndrome and has been battling depression. Addiction and PTSD from Childhood trauma. Look it up His life story is actually pretty depressing

It always makes me cry when I get validation for my anxiety, and Im not just some raving lunatic which I have felt others think all my 61 years of life. Thank you so much for this wonderful analysis, I fit into every category, and have done since I was very young, but just struggled on with life until I became very ill in 2011. Meds help a lot plus I did a course of Mindfulness with the most wonderful therapist who also suffered from anxiety so she was able to really understand all my thoughts and feelings. Its not a complete antidote to anxiety, but I would recommend a course of Mindfulness to anyone suffering from anxiety. Amazingly, my cat helps a lot, so if you are an animal lover, consider bringing a pet into your life. thank you for all the comments which help me not feel like an alien. ❤
Agree with everything you said sometimes i feel helpless its horrid.
@@stuartgriggs5084 It is a totally horrible feeling, when that caving in feeling is there, and the anxiety is uncontrollable. think about trying Mindfulness if youve not already tried it, it has helped me enormously, altho its not failsafe or perfect, my thoughts can still run away with me, even today I started having the what if thoughts, and they could have spiralled but I distracted myself. Your doctor could refer you for a course of Mindfulness, I had a wonderfully lovely therapist. I hope the weekend is kind to you.
My cat also helps.I am glad to hear of your success!
what if my cat also has anxiety
@@sammyssandwich Then youre in good company!!! both my previous cat and my present cat had and have anxiety so we look out for each other. its a very mutually beneficial relationship!!
As someone who suffers from extreme anxiety, please don’t self medicate. It may help for a while and you may be able to function but one day you’ll realize 10 years went by and you’re doing heroin (started with pain pills) just to stay sane. I’m glad I can say I’m almost 2 months clean and working on my problems the right way.
Couldn’t have said it better myself and you’re so right! Those 10 years have come and gone and I think it actually made my anxiety worse in the long run. 😞 But, I’ll have 2 years clean from IV heroin use on the 10th and it does get better with time. I’m sure you already know that though but, I just wanted to tell you I’m proud of you and you can do it! ❤️
@@ashleyyy1963 Thank you, I really appreciate the support and positivity. And congrats on the 2 years! That’s huge. Keep on keepin on. I’m definitely rooting for you and anyone else going through not just addiction problems but mental problems in general. It seems like you’re doing amazing right now but if you ever need to talk about anything, feel free to message me and I’ll do my best to provide any help or support them I can. Again, thank you for replying. I genuinely appreciate it
Not everyone who self medicates is looking for what you were looking for - some of us self medicate the right way - with herbs. there are at least 100 plants out there that promote calm that dont get you high. and having the kind of friends who help you get out the door instead of staying behind closed doors is a big difference. that being said - you dont have to be using to lose 10 years. Losing 10 or 20 or 30 years is easy - all it requires is for people to take what you love every time you find something or someone to love. staying in a haze is easy - even clean.

In late 2019, I was diagnosed with Dysthymia, Agoraphobia, Asperger syndrome (Mild autism), GAD (Generalized anxiety disorder) and OCD. Watching these videos really help clarify the smallest habitual things we do, when we're anxious. Thanks for everything Psych2Go!
Aspergers syndrome is not another name for Autism disorder right? I think there’s people that has called it Aspergers as well. Which has stopped, it’s not the correct term for it anymore. It’s just called Autism now. And whats Dysthymia and agoraphobia? Never heard of these terms.
@@sapphic384 Agoraphobia is a type of anxiety disorder in which you fear and avoid places or situations that might cause you to panic and make you feel trapped, helpless or embarrassed.
Dysthymia is a continuous long-term (chronic) form of depression. You lose interest in normal daily activities, feel hopeless, lack productivity, and have low self-esteem and an overall feeling of inadequacy.
pretty intense labels
all of those are just symptoms of your autism. autism runs in families. most aspie men come across as very arrogant and narcissistic. Mostly because they are very smart and their anxiety causes them to fall back on what they know. and that makes it sound like all they can talk about is themselves. I am autistic. My son & father are aspies. Having a conversation with either of them takes a freaking year it seems! I am the incredibly high energy type whereas they are both the sit and overthink it forever making people lose interest in conversing with them. causing the anxiety. Focus on your autism - most of these idiots out there dont even know what autism is. Its certainly NOT retardation - we just think differently. we see things differently. even tho my mind runs a mile a second - I still go back and reread everything I've written to make sure it comes across the right way!! LOL it takes me forever to send an email - or type this response -because I am always double checking its perfection. If you cross-reference all of those 'dis-orders' you'll see they all present the same way. Ergo - they are the same thing. They just want to put you on 20 different drugs to "fix" you - and there is nothing wrong with you. if they can keep you messed up on their pills, they keep getting your money.

@@Founderschannel123 having an anxiety disorder can actually be really scary, especially with the physical symptoms like the ones making us feel like we are going to die or that we are losing our minds. It's not just being scared, there's a lot to it.
Thank you for taking care of your mental health!
Yup. This is my life…. And it sucks. I tried reaching out and people just told me to man up… then, after years building up the confidence to do it, I finally tried therapy and the therapist literally said “try to look on the bright side” which has basically put me off therapy for life. So now I stay inside alone when I’m not at work. My apartment is my sanctuary from the horrors of the world. People only bring sadness.
That therapist is a disgrace. Not a professional thing to say. 😔
@@teresaharris7296 Thanks. Glad it’s not just me. I was crushed. That was her considered view after 6 weeks (1 session a week, each an hour long). I dredged up / faced up to so much pain and trauma (which is what I was told to do) in them too. I finished feeling much much worse than I started as it had brought up so much.
So yeah, kinda put me off trying again. I couldn’t face that sort of thing again. It took a decade to build up the confidence to try it. Not sure I have it in me to put myself “out there” now.
I feel you..my therapy sessions were traumatic too...I felt very invalidated . 🤗
Same here
Psychedelic are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety...it saved my life
Please does anyone know where I can get them? I put so much on my plate and it really affects my stress and anxiety level. I would love to try shrooms.

Psilocybin saved my life. I was addicted to heroin for 15 years and after Psilocybin treatment I will be 3 years clean in September. I have zero cravings. This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.

@@jamesdavid2436 I was having this constant unbearable anxiety because of university stress. Not until I can across dr_william_tripsz a very intelligent mycologist, he saves my life
I am feeling the same way too. I put too much on my plate and it definitely affect my stress and anxiety level. I am also glad to be a member of this community
Shrooms was the best trip had. It was an
amazing experience.
The trip I have been having had really helped me a lot, I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane To me now seems incredible and full of nuance on top of that I am less driven by ego and I have a lot more empathy as well
Damn I relate too much... I am trying not to let my anxiety control my life but it gets hard... I can stay locked in my room on a daily for months and covid was a blessing for me. Makes it physically and emotionally draining to find a job.... Basically all jobs require social interaction and I get head aches so awful from fighting my anxiety that I can't even understand people and only process gibberish.... I am at a stand still and don't know what to do about work at the moment... 💔
Same. I have GAD and I have all 5 thing on that list but the only one that I really feel negatively impact me is that. I’m pretty sure my anxiety started with the breakdown of my career so I have particular issues around work, my last job I spent 7 years wondering when they would discover I wasn’t good enough, but I never missed a day due to anxiety. I look at job description and read them over and over thinking will I be able to to do that ? Is that going to make my anxiety worse? Perhaps I should stop looking for a better paying job if the pays more it’s bound to be more stressful…etc and that’s on top of the whole panic over finding the interview location, failing the interview, and the whole new people, new place, new routine fears of course not working causes fears over money.
You are very strong for sticking through and trying! It's amazing that you've recognized these points within yourself so you can have more specific, specialized solutions.
My boyfriend has ADHD, which can come with anxiety. This literally nailed everything he has to go through on a daily basis.
Anyone going through this, you are not alone. ❤️
True dat!!
Literally what I thought when watching this. Feels like my ADHD
my eyes are gone misty... thank you.
What ever you’re going through, Im here with you th-cam.com/video/8_BwXnE6fyU/w-d-xo.html 🖤🥲🤘🏽❗️🔥‼️🔥🖤
I have both
I want to take a moment to appreciate the increased quality and details of animation/drawings you guys are pumping out!
Thank you!
I suffered the borderline disorder for over 23 years.
With so much anxiety Not until I came across psilocybin mushrooms treatmentPsilocybin treatment actually saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean.
Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms
Microdosing helped me get out of the pit of my worst depressive episode, a three year long episodeenough to start working on my mental health
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Germany. Really need

The shroom experience stands as my most remarkable journey, an awe-inspiring encounter that left an indelible mark of amazement.
He’s on insta?
ive struggled with anxiety for over a year now. at first it was really bad, couldnt control it and had panic attacks every week. since having these constant attacks and worries ive learnt to deal with it and although it hasnt fully disappeared, i can safely say that i made it through the worst patch. i never spoke to anyone about it, and i regret it deeply. always speak to people you trust.
Awwww this squid game theme is THE CUTESSST thing I’ve seen in a while now
Ik I love it so much
It may be stressful now, but remember you'll look back at this moment and be proud to have made it through that rough time. Hang in there
Hardly. Some people suffer from crippling anxiety their whole lives. I've have sever panic attacks and I have had them ever since I was 8 years old, I'm now 51 and still have crippling anxiety. i would love to look back at this and say I'm so glad I don't have this anymore, but considering how long I've had it. I doubt it will ever really go away for me thus leaving me to be dependent on medication to control it.
I just went thro a deep depression too and i feel alot better i found the causes to my deep depression. And i am over It now
@@ITIsFunnyDamnIT I’m so sorry to hear that. I really hope you become eternally happy in the future. Please take care and I’m sending love your way :))
@@ITIsFunnyDamnIT im so sorry love :( but im so so proud of you. sooo proud. i wish u the best. God bless
Don’t put out empty words for people like me, who have anxiety.
You don’t know how it is like and hopefully you never will, but please don’t post a comment to get some people’s hopes up, because for most, it never really goes away (as another person mentioned). Cause even with medication they don’t always work, and as in my case it hasn’t. And nothing in having anxiety is stressful, it’s painful. So stop pretending that you care, you don’t, and in most cases people like you just want likes and attention and praise for being “kind”. But you’re not. So, again, stop putting out empty words for others to listen to when in reality, you don’t know them, and you have no clue if they actually can get better.
So in other words, you don’t care. Cause in a year or two you’ll have forgotten that you even posted this comment. But others will come back and listen to you and believe that they will, but when some don’t, they slowly start to not trust anyone. So just be quiet, please.
I am currently self-diagnosed with social anxiety because, well...
I can't even talk to people (even my family, especially when it comes to serious stuff), and I have nearly all the symptoms of anxiety you could find.
I make up future conversations in my head, only to end up not even starting the convo because I get too scared.
I start sweating and my hands start shaking when I have to talk to someone (an example is last Friday (12th Nov) when the boiler man come around and my mum gave me a warning 1 hour before when I was in school because she was working, so I had to deal with it myself)
I don't usually go outside without my mum (unless I'm going to school) and I get really nervous when I'm about to go out without her.
Any time I do presentations or get picked to answer questions by my teachers I get clammy and sweaty, my heart rate gets faster, and my hand start shaking.
(these are only a few examples but the comment is long already)
I really should get a proper diagnosis because it gets really bad sometimes, but I'm too nervous to go to the doctors, or even tell my parents.
The 2nd worst thing other than anxiety is when people say "Nah man, you're just nervous and shy." :/
do you think ur parents will understand? also, u can talk to me in the meantime
Wishing you better times to come.
You described me lol.. Like you said, there's more for you.. Same with me. There's more for me. I did went to psychologists all my life but I always end up stop going.. Why? Bc I don't trust them, I don't tell them my problems bc I'm afraid to talk. I only talk when or if the other person asks me something and sometimes I don't even say anything interesting cuz to control a lil bit of my anxiety I think about other things (aka I don't pay attention at all).
The "not being able to leave the house alone" I have that problem too. I can only do it and acting fine if I have a person of trust with me and who doesn't force me to talk (mom, sister, boyfriend.. Not my dad cuz he gives me way more anxiety). I can do stuff by myself if I've done them before with someone beforehand (if you know what I mean). But that depends whether it's something with a lot of people around or if I have to talk (ex: I can go on buses and subways - the ones that do the trajectory that I know - but I can't go to a supermarket alone).
There's also that problem when your parents tell you to open the door to the guys that will fix something in the house.. I never know what to do or if I need to say something. All I want is to go back to my room lol all I'm thinking in those moments is: Should I stay in the living in case they need something? Or should I stay in the kitchen cuz it's closer to them? Should I sit or should I stay up? Should I ask if they need something or not? What the heck should I do? Lol idk it freaks me out. Those are a few examples. It's pretty complicated.
Hey! I don't know if you already do this but when I have to leave the house I need to have my earbuds with me all the time.. It makes my anxiety a tiny bit better, at least when walking on the street. If I don't have my earbuds with me I'll end up having a "internal" (I don't like to act as if I want attention from others) panic attack. With them on I get concentrated on my music and not on the outside world.
Try that out, it may work out a lil bit with you too (if you don't do it already haha). Also my last psychotherapist told me one trick to avoid looking directly at someone while talking with them. It doesn't really work with me but I always have that trick on the back of my head just in case I really need to talk with someone and don't act as if I'm rude or something alike. So what you have to do it's pretty simple.. To fake it you just have to look directly to the person's background. They will assume you're looking at them but in reality you're just focused on the view or the wall. But get your eyes focused in just one spot, don't look to the whole wall or to the whole landscape. Focus on a tree, on a something of the wall or something alike cuz if you start focusing in the whole thing you'll end up unfocused. Try it out 😊
Sorry for the long comment.
Please get diagnosed. And if you have caring parents, ask them if you can get checked for anxiety.
I’m not a doctor, but I am someone with anxiety, and all of that you’ve pointed out could just be a sign of shyness, or you’re just introverted.
I’m not exactly the best person to describe how I feel when having anxiety, but search up symptoms of it and if it relates to you, please get it checked before it gets worse.
note: and NEVER EVER self diagnose yourself with anxiety. It’s so frustrating having it and it’s nothing to be proud of having either. Everyday you’re battling through constant pain. I’m someone with it, and so far I’ve lost all my friends because of it. So for the love of god, never self diagnose yourself with ANYTHING ever again. Cause it’s not quirky, cute and neither a flex to have it. So don’t say “I have it” when you have done nothing to prove that you have.
I think you followed me around and watched me without my knowing! I am 64 and have struggled with PTSD, depression, and anxiety throughout my lifetime. I have seen different counselors throughout my lifetime, but non long term, nor the same one. while I understood I had an anxiety problem, This video helped me realize how much it rules my life. Thank you for this video!
You are not alone. It's a everyday struggle but never give into the monster you can't see. It can't hurt you. This is what I tell myself
You CAN get passed it. I am living proof.
Me too...I am 65😢 so you are not alone💜
Umfortumately, only correcting the original cause of your anxiety will actually treat it...Real anxiety is a symtopm of an underlying condition. Unfortunately, their is typically no cure for true anxiety, because we cant go back, and change the cause...
I am 75 and it never gets any better. You are definitely not alone.😮
Psych2Go, thank you so much for helping people better understand anxiety! I struggle with anxiety extremely bad, and the thing that I hate is when people act like it's not a big deal, or don't understand how much it effects my day-to-day life. This is extremely accurate as well. To anyone out there who has friends/family or just knows people with anxiety, please treat them well. Anxiety is absolutely terrible, and I wouldn't wish it upon the most terrible people in history. Nobody deserves to suffer from it in my opinion because it literally keeps me from enjoying life the same way that others do. Never sleeping enough. Never relaxing. Always worrying.
I do all of the above except procrastinate. Procrastinating makes me even more anxious so I do my best to avoid that.
That's great you're working on avoiding procrastination. Would you like to share any tips on how you do that?
@@Psych2go the reason I procrastinate sometimes is because I don’t think I can do it or I’m trying to make it perfect. I remind myself as long as I do my best, it’s good enough and I can do anything I put my mind to. I also set dates/times for when things need to be done while leaving room for unexpected set backs and I pray a lot. I pray for peace and positive thinking. That’s been helping a ton.
@@jessielynn In life there are only 2 problems--mind and the body. To feel better reduce negative thoughts with a simple practice. Your breath and mind [brain] are closely related causing stress-anxiety. For a better life sit on a chair, neck straight, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. With daily practice the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Do the practice without any expectations. Change happens from within by itself. Day or night, when taking a walk, at office, sitting in a park, when reading, before sleep etc sit or lie down and observe your breath. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life. Reduce negative social media. Avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Best wishes. Senior Counsellor.
Biggest ones I see in me are number 2 and number 3. I’m terrible at leaving my comfort zone, and I feel like everything I do needs to have a specific route to it and if it goes slightly off that route then I start stressing about the things that could go wrong. And the social interaction one is a huge one for me. I dont like leaving my house because I hate being around a bunch of people that I don’t know. If I’m with friends, then it’s different. Whenever I have friends around I can act normally and be perfectly fine around other people because I’ll always have my friends by me, but most of my friends are online friends so I’m pretty much just on my own most of the time. It also feels impossible for me to make new friends irl because I hate talking to people, it just seems that whatever I say is gonna make the other person annoyed and weirded out and that I would be interrupting them. Most of the friends I have are people who walked up and talked to me first. Usually what I do to calm myself in public is to listen to music or think about music because that’s like the number 1 thing that matters to me the most in my life. It’s always a place of comfort for me to go to, so I always find my self listening to music
i can relate to the comfort zone thingy its hard, i know :( but i think the more we get to experience the more we get used to the idea that not everythings going to go according to plan and what we're comfortable with. anywwys, if u need to talk, im here
Listening to Podcasts and practicing yoga also help to get out of yr own head and helps with focusing and distractions.
i think the only other thing i'd add to my personal list of things anxiety makes me do when i'm alone is putting off making any phone calls or sending emails and texts because interaction with someone (even when they don't see me or don't talk to me in real time) is an absolute nightmare
This is super relatable being an introvert with anxiety, and a little bit of social anxiety. I'll probably send this to my friends (the few that i have ) and let them know! this video was very helpful, and i can relate to all of these facts!
Thank you for sharing :) Glad this video helped you in some way
I'm also an introvert and i have social anxiety 😞
Me too😪
Yes, same here, and I am also planning to share with friends!
Anxiety leads to panic attack, leads to curling up on the floor trying not to throw up then running to the bathroom to throw up.
are you going through that? im so sorry
@@userm180 ya usually. I have alot of negative things happening right now and the pressure is cracking me. I tried to commit suicide twice and my little sister pulled me back from that.

Must be great as someone with anxiety nowadays, being an introvert must be so much easier with this kinda info... love this place, thank you P2G..
Who knew my life could be summed up in a 4 minute video? Meds helped quite a bit so I can function but doesn't ever go away.
I notice that I've been withdrawing and binging these past few weeks and have been trying to push myself to talk to people. It's hard af and I've been overthinking a lot, sitting alone while I watch my family interact and hovering around wanting to say something. It sucks. I listened to a creepy pasta today that got to me so much that my paranoid brain started to worry it was real and I got cursed lol.
I need a hobby 😆

@@barbarahecht4617 She did say subtle.
1 is definitely me. all day my thoughts are: 'am i eating weird?'
'what if they secretly hate me?'
'i wish i didnt say that (something that was years ago)'
'what if i dont do this?'
'was that creak just the floorboards? is someone breaking in?!'
on and on all day. anxiety sucks >:(
Does anyone else get anxiety when watching these types of videos because it proves that you actually have anxiety, it makes it more real. and it makes you realise how much it is actually affecting your life. and merely even facing that truth that you have anxiety is nerve racking. cuz I am feeling that way right now. Ive been recently trying to get help but.. its hard when you get in your own way so often.
Yes! Nerve racking is an understament haha. It's a never ending loop . I have diagnosed GAD and choose not to medicate. I try my best to get through through mindfulness training, and exercise. Anyways, youre clearly not alone in this, so don't be so hard on yourself about it *hugs* 🤗
Everytime i watch this i get a headach and my heart keeo beating
Hey there! If you're dealing with anxiousness, I want you to know that hypnotherapy can really help. It works by accessing your subconscious mind to address the negative thoughts and beliefs that contribute to anxious feelings.
As a hypnotherapist, I help clients with hypnotherapy as an effective and natural treatment option that can give you back a sense of control and confidence.
So if you're struggling with anxiousness, consider giving hypnotherapy a try. It might just be the breakthrough you've been looking for.
Yes and what worse for me is seeing people in the comments above 60 who had anxiety all their lives 🥲 like it’s a continuous not ending thing 😵💫
I'm on disability for mine as it prevents me working. I dont take medication, its not a cure, only makes it easier to do things. Im already on enough meds for my other health issues that if I don't take, I can die. So I'd rather not be a walking pharmacy if I can help it
Bruh, I knew I have anxiety but jesus
1. I overthink everything and literally have rushing thoughts
2. I can't watch anything new bc I don't like new things, its scary
3. I only withdraw from my family
4. Haha, yes I procrastinate too much
5. I hate the feeling of being alone
i get you :( did u try a therapist for that?
Anxiety is much more common than we think...Anxiety consist of struggles that's cause overthinking, worrying over things they can't control...Fear is the paralyzing affect of Anxiety..but the goods news is it cane be over Come....🙏
Damn...this is sadly very true. I have social anxiety and hate social gatherings. Can you do a video about having some combination of mental health issues.
Same here, social gatherings are basically on my never to do list, because of personal issues I have. Although I have attempted to go to gatherings, I look for a back exit door and leave early, it's my nature.
I have all of this😢
I pick my skin legs and shoulders. I am 59 and have only had 5 years. It's embarrassing and summer I have to wear clothes that cover when it's hot out.
I literally have all of those 😅. I related the most with the nightmares when I finally get some sleep 😴 😱

did u go to a doctor?
That’s definitely me. I can go through all that🥺 worst of all is it’s not a little anxious feeling, it’s a completely out of control feeling that makes me feel like my life is over 😞
I’ve experienced all points made in the video for the past decade or so. It’s only been in this year that I have noticed a positive change in how I feel and handle anxiety. To all the anxious people out there, don’t beat yourself up. You can do it. Take care everyone!
I have depression and anxiety people act as if you are crazed I have fought it most of my life at first I didn't know what was wrong a relief to know what the problem is
I didn't realize the replaying an event that happened years ago over and over again in my mind, thinking of how I could've avoided it or said something different was because of my anxiety..... makes sense I guess
u ok? :(
Same here.. last 6 weeks has been hell for me
Same here.
So what is it when I have all the signs of this anxiety, but don't overthink? Just numb to interactions and avoid the same situations and never finish things.
I have anxiety professional diagnosed and this video actually tells a lot about it. I don't leave the house. I do exercise in the back yard, I get my sun from my back yard. I can't leave the house unless someone goes with me because I'm genuinely afraid of the outside. Often I feel no one could understand but this youtube video read me like a book
I dont know about myself having anxiety but I relate to all these things and I also struggle leaving the house it's tough to go anywhere even with someone I rarely feel like going out the only safe place for me is my room without anyone. I feel safe by myself when I am outside I panic and I don't even know what to do. I can't even tell anyone how I feel cuz no one understands. I am continuously harming myself because of my thoughts they are killing me and no one even knows or understands if I try to share so I stopped sharing and just dealing with it.

I've always known that I had anxiety, but while I was watching this i was like, "Damn, i really have anxiety 😅". Oh well, hoping for better days ❤️🧣happy Red season
My problems never got solved. I'm so worried about my own self
Lots of times, I find myself in a very high level of anxiety, and I have adhd too
When i feel happy i write down why I'm happy so when the time I'm sad (obviously it will be two minutes after being happy) I'll read that things i wrote down when i was happy
Sometimes, i forget to, and BOOM, my schedule for the entire day will be ruined bcz of overthinking
I need help because i can relate to all the videos this channel has posted!!!!!
I've had panic disorder and high anxiety for a long time. I over analyze everything. I also have sleep problems. Sometimes I feel so alone and it scares me which will lead to anxiety and then lead to panic. As for being around people, I feel save when someone is with me. I just moved into my apartment. This is the first time I have lived alone in 12 years. I try to think positive, but the negative thoughts always comes back in my head. I have a few good friends and I'm not shy to call when I'm in panic mode. I don't do it a lot because they have families and lives of their own. The days are the worst for me. I get really lonely because I'm so used to being around people. That was my safety net and now that's gone. People day I'm strong, I used to be, but now I don't think so anymore. To all of you out there that are suffering with mental issues, I hope and pray that things might get better some day. God Bless us all.

I love listening to these they really do help!💗💕
Yes, all of them and so much more. I know there are people out there who know exactly what I mean. This was a great video
I have generalized Anxiety disorder. This helps explain it so much better than I could. Thanks for putting it into words.
When it comes to anxiety, I don’t know if it’s a defense mechanism in my head or whatnot, but I feel like I forget that it’s something I have. Or maybe I feel averse to saying I have anxiety because I feel like it won’t be taken seriously? I remember just having these “feelings” arise sometimes, seemingly out of nowhere. It was dreadful, but I had no idea how to put it into words, and even when trying to, I was told to just get over it/stop being selfish/willful/you will feel fine once you just go/do it. Hahhh…it makes me sad/upset just thinking about how I can’t get across these feelings of dread. Same with other traumatic/debilitating issues, but right now this one just stings the most I guess. It’s nice to know it’s real when others speak up about it, but it certainly hurts when loved ones don’t get it and don’t care to.
@ Bubbicino.
I have a friend that feels the same as you. Always anxious and overwhelmed at work and in life. Have thoughts that she can't open and share with herself and other. Just try to live in the present moment . Some Anxiety come from thinking about the future and that doesn't help. Just live in the present moment and you should be fine . My philosophy in life is just be prepared for what you can control and not worry about what you can't control eg weather conditions, what other people do/ behave..
Don't feel alone and upset. Just know that other people have the same feeling and thoughts.. Try journaling / writing your thoughts down and mindfulness as a senior counselor suggested in the comments section
this is actually very accurate. Despite it being too overwhelming, sometimes it just makes me forget that i'm actually suffering w it when im trying to be in my comfort zone. It makes me doubt if "do i really have anxiety" or am i just making excuses? cuz deep inside i am aware that i am not functioning just as how a normal person would do. Ppl would tell i'm calm on the outside, but actually im always being swallowed by so much thoughts without it being obvious bc im just too tired and all i can do is cry. And it hurts so bad since my family is always invalidating my feelings and struggles
All of these apply to me. It’s scary to see how accurate this is to me. Thanks for the video! (The most common ones for me is 1 and 5)

I constantly put stuff off because my anxiety tells me its going to be horrible and 99% of the time when i finally do it its not no where near as bad as my anxiety lead me to believe and yet i still do it every time
I actually do constantly toss and turn in bed. I always thought it was for the sake of trying to get comfortable, but I didn't even take anxiety or stress into consideration.
I started to really struggle at the beginning of this year, my second semester of my first year in a medical program. At first, the overload of tests, homework, and my job was almost manageable but I started forgetting things on tests, would feel like I was suffocating in the middle of a lab exam, would burst into tears in the middle of doing homework, and wouldn’t socialize because I felt like I had to be on top of my studying and homework at all times; otherwise, I’d fall behind and fail. I can’t even describe the pressure I felt on me from the moment I woke up and all through the day. It was just too much. I had to start seeing a counselor at my school. I wish I’d done it much sooner, but I was embarrassed to admit that I couldn’t do it all. I couldn’t; it just took me most of this semester to realize that.
Prioritize your mental health. There’s nothing to be ashamed of.
Same with me😢what should I do
I literally do all of these things omg I'm freaking out.
spoken like a true person with anxiety.
I don't have a anxiety disorder, but I do relate to most of these. It's only been twice where it disrupted my daily routine, and it feels really scary. I hope anyone who relates to these can find peace. ♥
I really love the sprouts on their head!!
I get anxiety when I’m in public
Same
Same and what's worse is that I work in a public place. Yesterday my anxiety was so bad that my lower body felt like jelly.
"Anxiety affects working memory" I wholeheartedly agree. I have been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder and it's always surprising to me what I don't remember in the aftermath of an anxiety attack. Sometimes I'll even forget how to say words, respond in a face to face conversation in a timely manner, or process what someone has just said to me. It's really interesting but also really difficult if people don't understand that I'm anxious. I find myself lying and saying "I'm tired" a lot so I don't have to explain myself
I've had my anxiety and depression for so long they've shrunk part of my brain
Saying youre tired isn't really a lie. You're tired of dealing with the anxiety. Need to refill the social batteries if you will.
called me out fr- i have really bad social and general anxiety disorder, so i relate to these 100%.
Wow, how did you get inside my head?! You hit the nail on the head with every point. I take medication for it but it rarely works so I just avoid, avoid, avoid and over think everything to death! It really sucks. :(
You are alone but I am right beside you!!
if medication isn't working there could be a serious reason. It may appear not to be working because you are in a constant state of stress, so you might need a stronger dose or different, better acting medication.
You also might have a physiological reason for why it's not working. Don't just give this up. Talk to a doctor as soon as possible.
Source: I am experiencing the exact same thing as you, and this is what i was told by one of my psychiatrists. I see many doctors.
Does overthinking negative thoughts about yourself and someone also mean you have anxiety and/or depression ???
It's possible, but not the case for everyone.
It’s part of a spectrum. With anxiety, depression, or any other disorder, it’s normal to do or experience the things associated with those disorders. What really counts is how often it happens, how intense it is, and what other things are happening.
For example, becoming very sad now and again is normal. Being persistently sad most of the day, on most days every week, for several months, is part of clinical depression. One of the main things to look at is how much it is affecting your ability to do your daily routines.
If it’s mainly overthinking and you’re not experiencing much with the other symptoms of depression/anxiety, it’s probably not a disorder. Either way, overthinking is still a problem that can mess with you, and it’s worth working on to fix it. Hope this helped.
@@ray.deathray yh but I have most of the symptoms in the video
But still I overthink negative things which makes my brain go dull for the rest of the day
@@ray.deathray it happens all the time
I feel these In a extreme levels ^ I wish I could stop having anxiety but I really can’t stop feeling these ways ^ I tried many different methods but can’t find one that works for me ^ 🤍I hope the best for everyone that has anxiety 🤍
It should be noted that while social withdrawal can be indicative of anxiety, it can also just be because you prefer to be alone.
about watching the same show… I’ve watched Bojack Horseman over 6 times and never really thought about it, now I understand why. It is a great show, but it might also have to do with the anxiety/anticipation of watching something new, so I just stick to what I know :/ (comfort zone)
For me it’s music. I have a hard time listening to new stuff or things I don’t know. And then I feel guilty and uncultured.
I can relate to that, but hey, there’s no reason to feel guilty about it! It’s okay to stick to what we know and feel comfortable with! That might even be part of who we are. We’re not uncultured, we just like to vibe to stuff we know in our little bubble
Mine is Family Guy haha
I relate with all these things. I'm going to trust God for leading me to help through prayer. I've lived like this too long
My theory is that all of us have anxiety.
(Some may not want to admit it, but I believe all humans do.)
Because society is not currently set up to be healthful for humans.
I don't even have anxiety, but I do most of these things.. maybe im just crazy. 💀
These all apply to me, except the tossing and turning. I have absolutely no problem sleeping. It's my favorite pastime.
I would like to add a little tidbit-
For me at least, I have had such persistent anxiety for so long, and have become so good at masking it because it was a survival skill. I had anxiety about going on the bus, to school, because of abuse, but I was pushed onto the bus every day. I couldn’t have a meltdown and become more vulnerable, so I just had to hide it, and it became a habit. I have had actual conversations with people about anxiety, WHILE HAVING SEVERE ANXIETY, and they’ve said something like, “Well when you’re anxious again, just…be like you’re being now! Just be fun, and laugh, and let go a little, you’re always so happy and bubbly when we get you out of the house and go do stuff!”
And it’s just so frustrating and invalidating. Do I have to be rocking in the corner for my anxiety to be real to you?
VERY RELATABLE UNFORTUNATELY!!😢
Same here, absolutely the same. But, finally, I couldn’t go on, I couldn’t leave my bedroom, I couldn’t talk to anyone. I’m not much better now, but I’m trying. I truly feel pain, and I feel sad for anyone that experiences this debilitating, humiliating, destructive disorder. 😢
"Do I have to be rocking in the corner for my anxiety to be real to you?" SAY THAT A LITTLE LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK PLEASE
It's so hard to believe that this isn't something everyone goes through 🤯 I'm just speechless.
Yeah...l have to be around people every day who just breeze through life, and get anxious about whether the $3000 couch they just bought will match the rest of the furniture. It makes me jealous and l hate them.
Literally spot on, except I don't reject people wanting me to come hang out. You can't reject something that doesn't happen. Yep, I sit in my room all day. Slooooowly getting almost nothing done.
But literally 99% correct.
I don't even put sheets on my bed because they just come undone from tossing and turning. I have a bunch of pillows and a blanket or two. I've never had sheets on the mattress when I'm single. Girls hate that shit though... Lol
Thanks for this video!! I struggle with anxiety disorder, I had crisis too but now I'm doing therapy and I'm feeling so much better😊
To be honest it was damn well accurate for me. I never knew that procastinating and couldn't stay focussed for a long time was also another symptom of anxiety. I thought maybe it's related to ADHD... 😥 Now i don't know whether to feel relieved or be sad that I seriously do have anxiety.
I do all of these things, and I’ve been suffering because of them. Failed a bachelor’s degree, missed out on friendships and love, self esteem issues etc. But lately, I’ve been seeing a therapist about it and started to actually recognise and acknowledge these traits and behaviours. It’s hard stepping out of your comfort zone, and actively try turning things around, but step by step I’m finding my way out of it
I'm proud of you for taking that step. I need help too, but I get anxious when I think about it. Not only do I have anxiety, but I also suffer from depression. Best of luck to you. Sending love and light ❤
@@musiclyricluver9855 Visit a physician without delay. To feel better reduce negative thoughts with a simple practice. Your breath and mind [brain] are closely related causing stress-anxiety. For a better life sit on a chair, neck straight, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. With daily practice the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Do the practice without any expectations. Change happens from within by itself. Day or night, when taking a walk, at office, sitting in a park, when reading, before sleep etc sit or lie down and observe your breath. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life. Reduce negative social media. Avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Best wishes. Senior Counsellor.
Wow good for you u can afford a therapist 🥺🥺
I am having trouble with actually going to find a therapist. I feel like most people just don't believe me when I explain what is going on. I am afraid a therapist will be the same. If you get this how did it go for you?
@@cmillerpa33 overthinking again
Just take the step reach out to a therapist
Sometimes I lay in bed and my thoughts are starting to slowly build up.
About death, dying and what comes after.
And I always feel this tread building up and it getting stronger and which might turn into a Panic attack.
Me also my whole life
I have severe PTSD and anxiety. These videos help understand certain things. I checked all the boxes on this particular video. I hope that everyone understands that it's not a bad or weak thing to seek help or treatment. No shame at all. Also, the woman's voice in these videos is very calming. Thank you.
1. Yea.. pretty much.. it happens a lot sure you may say “Most” but I like to think and say that a lot more people with anxiety would.. say 65% or so…
2. Everyone has that even people without anxiety.. it’s more of a normal person thing.. but yea…
3. Very much.. I believe some have a reason form their past or it comes from past experiences form friends, family, or other people (specking form experience)…
4. Yea.. I think so.. I have a different reason why I stress and other do too.. example: “You have 3 hours left to complete this, please do.” Or “I told you to do this and yet you disappoint me again. If you know how to do it then I expect you to do it.” Difference being that one makes it less stressful while it still can be (maybe).. and the other one being more.. disappointed which can put an impact on it (the heart as well) which hurts.. (again specking form experience)…
5. I would call this Insomnia or struggling to sleep.. meaning that you’re mind thinks and thinks non stop until never or so.. (my hand is shaking)…
Thank you for everyone who's leaving encouraging messages in the comments for people, I hope you remember it for yourself as well. ♡♡♡ We can do it
I'm DEFINITELY the "overthinker," and my stress levels are a daily struggle to controll😔
Same 😅
