@@nolicerrillo5494 Theoretically yes, but these doctors never really explain anything in detail, they just say well its not harmful, try telling that to a medical doctor in a hospital. If someone is suffering with panic disorder for years, you'll never cure it by giving some simple answer, never showing any studies to back it up, you'll never convince them, because everything else in health even what we eat, is all backed up by evidence and studies, and phycologist that treat panic never cite anything, its quite frankly astonishing, and very disappointing. I have probably done more research than these actual psychiatrists, if you can believe that, and I've seen mixed studies, they don't all come back as harmless. Unless they have access to something we don't, well then please show it, I mean people are suffering, and you could cure them if you would just show the evidence, were all waiting, please show the studies show the evidence. Please don't say well its like exercise so exercise isn't harmful, not that's wrong, intense exercise is actually harmful, and we have evidence showing that, so now we have to show if there's a difference between panic attacks and intense exercise, and again, the psychiatrists will never tell you, because quite frankly they don't care, they're just making money of their book, if they had panic disorder believe me, they'd care, and they'd actually do the research. So now I have to do it myself, apparently there's some strain with the cardiovascular system with marathon running over a prolonged period of time, this may be the stress on the system, which then stresses the heart. Where as with panic, the body is not strained the same, the heart is just pumping, a marathon runner pushed to the limit can collapse at the end of a run, taking the body to the absolute limits of what it can physically do, which is beyond a strain on the system, and yes could at some point scar the heart, and then thicken it, causing it to beat so slowly it no longer beats correctly, its called athletes heart. So lets hope the psychiatrists can tell us the difference between athletes heart, and a life time of panic disorder, I doubt they will. And because of this, they can never cure panic disorder until they do actual research.
The way you have explained this has really struck a cord with me, im so happy to have found your videos ive tried all sorts of things over the years, read all kinds of books, but using your "glue to the spot " idea WORKED like you said short term discomfort for long term gain, i dont have to worry anymore , please Keep doing your work, its made a big, positive difference in my life.

I have never heard such a beautiful, gentle voice - apparently my mind was so interested in listening to 'the voice' that during an acute anxiety episode ( I have GAD and PTS) that it 'forgot to go into full anxiety mode' 😂 That says a lot doesn't it!

I am now learning how to deal with the aftershocks of a 'mental tsunami' and try to "re-train" my mind NOT to try and convince me that I am going to die any second as wave after wave of panic disrupts my days and nights. Obnoxious disorder! Thank You, Dr Barry.
Dr. Barry I've had anxiety for 6 yrs chronic to the point its hard for me to walk to the stop sign a few houses down, can't drive, go into wal Marts or grocery stores...whats your advice on chronic warriors?? It has swallowed 6 yrs of my life. Im 28 now. Was 22 when anxiety hit me like a brick
@@solideroftheapocalypse4955 You have to do your own research, panic people will never get it till they see concrete proof, like from actual medical doctors, and Dr. Harry Barry will never show you that proof, he has none, its so sad, unless I'm mistaken and its in his book, but I doubt it. You can't cure anyone like that, just rehashing what Claire Weekes said a gazillion years ago, or what Dr. Barlow said, doesn't work, this is 2020.
