Fight it with confidence everyone. Dont let it control you with fear. This is your life. Don't run from it. Fight it. Speak with confidence. Shine through it. You are stronger than this.
@@mitch5222 hey so I had a panic attack the other day while in traffic. I didn't react to it. I stayed quiet and simply acted as if nothing was happening. My heart was pouding and felt all the sensations through my body. The only thing I did was count from 1 to 30 very slowly. So I would suggest not feeding into it with your body or mind. Simply let it go away on its own. You start feeding into it with body movements and thoughts you get more tired. Hope it helps you too. It's important to remember that it will pass.
One thing I try to do is.. to not be afraid of when anxiety comes up. I try not to run away from it, but instead, just sit with it and feel it. I ask myself, what is this feeling that I'm so scared of feeling? What does it actually feel like? Doing this can significantly reduce anxiety because you're not being inundated with the fear of anxiety in addition to the anxiety itself. Doing this allows you to observe it moreso, objectively, rather than subjectively. And, you realize that this dreaded "feeling" is really nothing. It becomes like a phantom because as soon as you are willing and able to truly sit with it, it turns out that it isn't even there. It only exist outside of it. It only exists as a [fear] of it, but, it doesn't actually exist in of itself. Tho, this process may take a little time. At first, you just feel the anxious fear. And, you look at it and observe [how it feels], rather than looking at it as something that you are afraid of. In doing this, you must allow this feeling without resistance, and then just objectively observe exactly what this strange feeling feels like. Ask yourself why you are so afraid of feeling this feeling. You realize that this feeling isnt anywhere near as horrendous as you have been making it out to be. And, eventually, you realize it doesn't even exist. It was all a mirage created by your mind of something that you were avoiding due to your unwillingness to face it and feel it. So, you must feel it as resistance-free as you can. When you are in an anxious situation, allow the fearful feeling, and dont try to avoid it or escape it. Dont try to rush through the moment, but rather, just allow yourself to feel whatever feeling(s) comes up and then, observe it. Ask yourself.. what is so scary about this feeling? How bad is this feeling, really?
This helped alot thanks man! This also showed me what meditation really is, it's not about focusing solely on breathing but to observe your thoughts without judging it just like what you said above ^
Thank you for this. I was so anxious about not submitting my research proposal with 6 days to go for the deadline. I was struggling to fight the fear and it hindered me from being able to complete my task. Then, the fear of not being able to complete it came and it's like going in circle.
Sounds like a great idea. Logical. But it also sounds difficult and like it would take a lot of persistence and determination. I will try it. Thank you.
As long as you are trying to “mange” or “cope” with your anxiety, you will NEVER recover. How do you recover? Accept all of your symptoms as just anxiety and release fear! Recovery is inevitable! Sincerely, someone who fully recovered from severe anxiety and panic disorder:)
My issue is every time I’m in a heightened anxious state I feel like I’m going to pass out and I literally can’t think straight. My normal brain would see right through the BS anxiety and understand that there is no danger but once I’m in this extreme anxious state all I can do is run from it, which makes it worse... can you help me?
@@Z_Co95 you’re in fight or flight mode. Constant panic.. trust me, I’ve been there. You’re nervous system is sensitized and it’s the worst thing anyone can go thru BUT you can get thru this! You have to accept all of what you feel, just sit in it. The more you resist and fight is, the stronger it’ll get. This won’t hurt you, don’t worry. You also have to have faith in your will to heal and that you can. My faith is in Jesus. I literally cried for him and rededicated my life to him. I released all my fear and worries onto him. I’ve slowly but surely been in recovery for the past month. It takes time but he gives you grace.
For my future reference: 1:01:10 to 1:23:12 Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Thoughts (mental habits, overestimate risk of threat and underestimate ability to cope, difficulty disengaging from negative thoughts, dysfunctional). Feelings. Behavior. 1:07:48 Treatments: Identify the negative automatic thoughts. Evaluate how accurate or useful the thought is. (Are there ways I could cope? It's not just positive thinking - suggesting that is not helpful. Take a more balanced, realistic view and less extreme thoughts). Replace thought with a more accurate or helpful one. Test out thoughts with exposure to feared situations (done in steps and being mindful of each feeling, response, reality and ability to cope). 1:14:55. Cognitive Bias Modification (CBM) Situation/task and pairing with healthier interpretations. Mindfulness. Awareness. Healthier skills. Helpful. Thank you.
Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction meditation has helped me with fear. It teaches you to observe what is happening instead of reacting to it. When you are a witness, you are no longer a victim. UPDATE: It’s 2023. Being in the eternal now and letting go of the next moment is now what I do. This has helped even more.
I just want to breathe smoothly, not easily feel afraid of death, fear of various diseases, be able to fall asleep easily, wake up refreshed, and think calmly. But what happens is sometimes difficult to sleep, shortness to breathe, heartbeat pounding fast, feeling nauseous suddenly, body limp and cold sweat, and then I thought I would die at that time
Hey there's a podcast on Spotify called "Calming anxiety" by Martin Hewlett. Please you guys check it out. It will help a lot because this anxiety shit is no joke
First seat anywhere just relax yourself the much you relax your mind do it after that ask to yourself why you are taking anxiety just ask yourself......do it everytime when you feel anxious it help more than meditation..
@Zom - b I can related all the words you describe, I have been dealing GAD , health anxiety since 2015, I'm on therapy and medication. Meditation and breathing exercises won't work unless you body stay calm so first try to release tense in your body by doing Progressive muscle relaxation. Once your body is relax and turning off fight and flight mode then you can able to focus on meditation or breathing exercises. For chronic Anxiety person and having panic attack oftenly 24/7 fight or flight mode activated, breathing exercises and meditation will even trigger your anxiety like myself. I find myself trigger by breathing exercises which is because my body is on fight and flight mode for long periods. So what I figured it out myself is first release the tense muscle and when I feel calm I'm able to breathe normally and I can meditate or focus on my hobbies. These will reactivate your rational thinking cortex. Do progressive muscle relaxation exercise frequently as per day.
This is just superb, been searching for "ways to fight depression naturally" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Hanincoln Nanlivia Framework - (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my mate got cool success with it.

My anxiety depression turns into huge power and fear. I manage anxiety depression. But my anxiety is totally never gone it's still on me. But I get some kind of big self confidence to distroying anxiety and become smart and courage
How do you manage your anxiety and fear ......I have anxiety all the time and can't sleep.........I am on klonopin and want off....I have depression too.....and can't live alone.....
People suffering from anxiety first learn to slow down your mind. Yes, breath slowly and take control of things. Then think rationally. The issue will be resolved. If you believe in god then know he's holding your hand.
Hearing Isabelle's voice cracking under anxiety during presentation made me cry. I don't know why, I just felt like offering her a hug to say it will be ok. It was just too relatable...
Guys we are all going through this together but here is something that has help me alot and that is working out or boxing/mma its a really great way to take your mind off from mental anxiety go ahead and give it a shot its so great!
How I healed from this was first God because I asked him to remove it from my life and make me fearless then I just accepted it . When I would feel anxious I would talk to it and tel it to come take a seat have a look around everything is good here nothing to fear ,thanks for trying to protect me but I don’t need you anymore ,I don’t need your help and also I would force myself to just sit there and let it wash over me and feel it .I kid you not it just vanished . Another thing to realize is that the things that anxiety tells you aren’t real so any time anxiety would tel me something I would simply say that’s false it’s not real , I am not my thoughts they are simply just thoughts let them be . Then I would try to make myself feel anxiety or panic and I just couldn’t even if I tried .
So the unknown and not knowing what's gonna happen brings on the anxiety.. But why does one live in chaos,Is it due to being anxious all the time ? Please better explain it would be of help.. Thanks..
I did this to myself from a weed panic attack and it stuck with me and have had panic disorder/heart palpitations/anxiety often since then and it really has had a negative effect on my life. I feel improvement a little bit the palpitations can really play a number on me sometimes. Things that have helped me and hope these can help you to. - Magnesium - avoid things that destroy Magnesium like carbonated beverages, alcohol and caffeine. - good sleep at all costs (Wear sleep mask, do what you can to get the sleep you need) - exercise and be active - meditation can really teach you control, breathing control, mind and body control which can really put YOU in control. - take cold water plunges or swim. Cold water slows heart down a little, gives relief and relives inflammation. Try cold baths couple times a week after your workouts. - pray - lose the fear and be courageous regarding anxiety.
I think getting vitamins and minerals in your diet, exercise, cutting caffeine alcohol and drugs out like you said, meditating, music, all give a holistic wellness to the body. Also with magnesium being good for you is Inositol (vitamin B8). Omega 3.
I’m going through this exact thing. I fucked up by running to google though. It has helped and has worsened my anxiety. Because of my searching I found out I have anxiety and depersonalization from the weed. I’m going to seek therapy or a doctor too to make sure but I’m pretty sure it’s just really bad anxiety. The bad thing about google though is they list all kinds of shit that can be wrong with you and unfortunately it made my anxiety worse. I keep looking up shit i really need to stop cause I know it’s making my anxiety worse
Ive been dealing with fear and anxiety for several years. Its really hard to explain your internal feelings and too difficult to overcome. bc of these fear and anxiety it keeps holding me back from seeking a new job. I would say im not lazy its just bc of fear and anxiety
Im sorry for your anxiety. I suggest you try meditation or simply relaxing music. It's a simple way to reduce stress and anxiety. Meditation provides a soothing of the mind and helps to connect with yourself. Obviously, this does not prevent being followed by a health professional. However, I believe it's a good way to take care of yourself and make you feel better. I sincerely hope that you will find your means to fight your anxiety.
I have found the cute for chronic anxiety. It's called Neuro mag. Also b complex. A good multi v and 2 thousand of omega threes. V d 3. 5 .000 a day and a good veggie diet. 90 percent of long haulers is gone and anxiety also gone. Don't give up.
I have debilitating anxiety very often,sometimes to the point that I am paralysed on my bed or sofa trying to calm myself down internally. I realised that my anxiety was worsening one as a result of physical issues and no external stimuli. I have been suffering from this sensory deprivation for years,trying to find things to do which led me in some...peculiar situations. When I have nothing to see or do,I tend to hyperfocus on my own intrusive thoughts,which leads to that anxiety. When I leave this anxiety to bubble up without any external stimuli to focus on,I focus on those thoughts way more than I have to. The pain of having anxiety is no joke,it's the worst thing I have to deal with (other than depression) in my life,especially in a time where I need to be focused on other things the most.
I want someone to try this... I’ll tell you what my mother tells me everyday since I was child. She has said “I love you, God loves you” and I repeat back to her “I love you God loves you” it’s a reminder to your family that you are both loved. So whoever is reading this I love you and God loves you try telling your family member or spouse this everyday or before you hang up the phone..They might look at you kinda crazy or maybe they’ll say it back... it’s my norm everyday and I find it comforting and I find strength in the love for others.
Fear is not good ! Fear also beings distress and depression ! The Bible condemns Fear and says ' Fear Not ' . Faith and peace comes from Divine God . Fear comes from the Devil and its evil ! Solution : cast your Fears on the Lord Jesus . Do not fear , for I am with you . Isaiah 41:10 fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. The truth will make you free . The truth that Jesus is lord and Saviour connect in faith to him ....and fear will be cast out !
The instant cure for anxiety is to understand the fact that there are infinite amount of possible outcomes in this universe and our brain only thinks of a handful . A bad outcome can become the means of a good outcome in the future. Just like that a good outcome can become the means of a bad outcome. For example, you lost your job (bad thing). But then you got a new job which is better ( bad thing led to a good outcome.) It's an endless cycle. So just go with the flow and don't think about it . 😄 Goodluck.
Exactly. It's all relative. So much so that I'd wager that the concept of good and bad doesn't exist. Going by the OP's example, is losing your job really that bad of an outcome? The result of such an outcome yields either someone else's employment or that former company's retention of profits. Both of which are positives, or good outcomes. Say you were to obtain an even better job, as mentioned in OP's example, should the loss of your previous job be considered good or bad? Id reckon it should be considered neither. Our minds tries at every moment to collude with our bodies to attain their own gain (the body just wants dopamine and your mind just wants to feel whole), not yours.
The best way to conquer fear is reason. You have to see if your fear is valid enough to keep because if it is valid then you wont feel the fear it will be a caution. If its not, then you feel more dumbfounded and relaxed. Fear seems like and uncertainty than an crippling ailment. Having a realization/revelation is the fastest way to cure anxiety/depression. Gaining the proper perspective is the main goal of every persons life.
you have to give meaning to the reason though, because reason/logic alone isnt enough. and that meaning is subjective towards every individual for every separate experience if reason was enough to conquer fear, no one would ever procrastinate ever again, because logically we KNOW what we need to do. the hard part is coming up with why.
I agree, I found saying my fear out loud or thinking of the worst case scenario and just accepting my fear without running away and deep breathing really helps.
Love you all. "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation present your requests to God by prayer with thanksgiving. And the peace of God which transcends all understanding shall guard your minds and hearts in Christ Jesus." Phil 4:6-7
Omg!! This incredible. I lived my life trying to run away from noises - loud sounds, voices, not even loud … they would cause me to panic and want to get away. As I got older, it got worse. By my 50s it was out of control, unmanageable and taking over my life. I realised it was the fear induced by the domestic violence and abuse I was forced to witness as a young child in the house where I lived. That is why I still feel the need to “get far away.” Loads sounds trigger my fight of flight response.
If only it were that straightforward to meet your physical and emotional needs when a lot of the requirements for it (companionship, money, free time, etc.) is outside one's control 😥
I enjoyed the fact that fear is definitely a survival mechanism. With our small biz owners I talk with them about how Fear is a mechanism designed by our brain to ensure we meet or protect our ability to meet our needs (not to be confused with wants or the strategies to meet needs).
What's done is done. What's gone is gone. One of life's lessons is always moving on. It’s okay to look back to see how far you’ve come but keep moving forward.
2 of my panic attacks began in my sofa, I was afraid of laying down in that sofa and having another one for a while. Watching this video I decided to go and confront it, telling myself there is no reason for me to be afraid. I felt a bit of anxiety once I lay down and worried thoughts came to mind, took some deep breaths and told myself that it was ok. After a moment I was very calm and comfortable. Now I feel accomplish and I’m planning to do this a bit by bit with other situations. Thank you so much!
After a bout with the flu and mono 40 yrs ago I was left with chronic fatigue muscle pain depression and multiple symptoms. It's a nightmare. No doctors would listen at all and prescribed anti depressants and antinflammtory med. Here over forty years I've finally made them realize I wasn't deluded. God bless don't give up.
Write down your fear gives sense of release and then analysing it how accurate or useful the thought is helps to understand the thought patterns and then changing it with right thought makes the right thought your natural thought with time and yes doing exercises and meditation with it and eating nutritious diet helps
Actually it can help for some anxiety disorders but for OCD is the opposite, just stop thinking, don't waste energy with the thought, put your energy into something else importante "if you stop chasing the sticks your brain throw for you, it will eventually stop sending them"
I've been writing in my diary daily my fear of my violent brother, l has called the cops on him 2 days ago, l had to sleep overnight in the hotel. Now lm home again and afriad to leave my room, always checking to see if his in his bedroom before coming out of my room. I can't stay in any room fir too long in fear he will come out of his room and start talking to me. I carry around a pair a scissors on my hip, in case he might attack me. I carry it around on my all day every day. I carry my phone around too, in case l need to call the cops on him again. I'm so depressed 😔 I've been applying for a new place to live.
It's also amazing they skip over family dysfunction? I was bullied by 7 people in family. Just happened to be what parents (birds of a feather) had in their pasts to aim at and I fit because I was first born (lucky me) Ever after even the more educated part of my family refuses to believe that because parent's had their saga . One sibling however has admitted I was picked on more than anyone in family. I got it too because of the people they were abused by. I have been in therapy a while and just deciding to leave. Why? Because all they do is mechanical stuffing meds down your throat which don't help at all. And I was also diagnosed with some PTSD. Not that I should be ashamed of this I am lucky to be alive due parents. So the stress that I still have is not sometimes something I can cope with.
I too was picked on just left Ohio a week ago age 53. "black sheep" of the family. I believe in No contact with narcissistic family members if at all possible. Listening to Eckhart Tolle has helped me as well as yoga, walking, and meditating, probiotics-some. Ayurvedic herbs and other alternative treatments may help, like acupuncture/pressure. It;s comforting to me sometimes, just to read about all the helpful herbs that are out there. Good luck on your journey :) You are not alone.
I was bullied as well by three of my uncle's they where these big strong guys lift weights act really tuff then i grew up to find out i was the strong one mentally but my uncle's on the other hand where like scared little boys trapped in a grown man's body im constantly battling myself over how the way they treated me was a lie and im learning how to forgive them because of the way my grandfather treated them like shit so it's a on going fight in my mind i want to tell them how i feel about the way they treated me but i think they wouldn't be able to deal with it
37:58 i suggest adding a 5th set of questions to mirrow it (how do my xy work, how did it develop, what is it for, how did it evolve?). It will put your knowledge in perspective. You ll see that there are funktions of this object that you can not catch, you can not know yet. Because you yourself are not developed enough. That will help you to keep an open mind to everything you work on and to search for new answers and test new theories, even if you already decided what you think "it" is for. Add a set of mirrowing questions to the person who answers the first set of questions. That will make you see more. Basically add a 5th question named "Is the person answering the four questions developed enough to get that 4 questions right?"
The definitive video will include biological differences between each one of us, including those who inherit fears, war traumas. Also, some of us are just wired WAY more sensitively than others. Others of us have fears that began pre-verbally as infants or before that can't be reached by CBT but by image/active imagination. Of course if this happened, then these people would have to admit their approach doesn't help everyone. Maybe the next generation...
I have anxiety and depression becuz Of how people treat. I know I'm different and can eccentric. I think I have autism but was never diagnosed. I know I need help but don't know where to go. I medicate with nips to help me blend in at work
I recommend reaching out for help...it is scary but exciting knowing that there is a chance you don’t have to deal with everything forever and that there is hope
I have really severe anxiety, GAD. It's all like starting from scratch with just about everything. I'm really afraid I'll never be good again. I can't even go out by myself anymore
I have a bad anxiety about breathing. My therapist recommended whim hoffs breathing walkthrough and I was crying and laughing when I finished it. Facing that anxiety head on has helped me feel a bit more normal.
Excellent subject, EXCELLENT speakers, my Goodness!! Already, I have begun putting together a number of options for a client suffering PTSD from long term childhood trauma. Every speaker gave me incredible information but I must highlight Dr Beard for targeted therapies and her computerized approach to our instinctive reactions to situations. An important and evidential based research project. Wonderful. I am very pleased to have come across this important lecture on TH-cam. Thank you all so much!!
Hello everyone, I just wanted to share with you one method which is helping me to deal with my anxiety. When you feel the anxiety, find some body movement which is pleasant for you and which you can do repeatedly for a long period of time. Some examples of such movements are bowing forward and back while sitting, or rotating your body left and right while standing letting your hands to wave freely, or imitating hand movements of the skiier who is pushing his skiing poles, or waving hands like during swiming, just find what you body likes and what movement you may repeat almost indefinitly. Then just do this movement as long as you still experience anxiety or fear or anger. It could be anything between 1 minute and 1 hour depending on your state. But don't force yourself, the movement should be pleasant and easy and harmless to do. And don't try to relax. Don't try to force bad thoughts to go away. Just keep moving and thinking about the things you want to think about. If you will want something, like cry, then cry. If you will want to sleep then stop moving and go to sleep. Continue this exercise untill you feel yourself relaxed. Again don't force yourself if you feel tired, then sit or lie and take a rest. It is very simple, and it helped me a lot. There is a whole channel about this method from its author: th-cam.com/video/wl-k-0OP2lM/w-d-xo.html , unfortunately it is not in English.

Okay with CBT I get it you focus on what is causing you to have a fear response. However, there are panic disorders where the panic attacks come out of the blue with no specific fear attached to them. Is CBT all we have?
I’m having a bad anxiety fit well I’m watching this video and it won’t leave me alone The thing is is that I don’t know what I’m afraid of mine Zaidi just happens for no reason now are used to be afraid of multiple things but I got over those fears not mine Zaidi is just random and I don’t know why I am crying because that’s the only way I know how to alleviate the stress
I love when she said to make yourself lost, I remember when I was a kid I was staying in a hotel and I did the same very thing, but I was thinking that I was weird, thought that way most of my life , (now 46) and to hear someone else say to deliberately get yourself lost, maybe I'm not that weird after all. I wished more people would make more things acceptable to make us not feel we have to walk a tightrope all of the time trying to hide our fears or insecurities, I think the world would be a better place, well at least I would hope that it would.
I deal with anxiety at times but it seems to change for me when I become aware of what's happening in the process. It reaches a peak where I have to ask God what is going on with me. I have strong feeling of my heart feeling gripped by grief, anger, sadness all wrapped in one. So, I try to understand/distinguish how did I get here.
same thing with me since 6 years i drinking paroxeten and now escitalopram but when I stop its come back again and now i don't interest in any things. i lost my libido sleep and also sexual function. i am disappointed from my life and activities. please someone help me.
Public Speaking is not easy but start small. Start raising your hand and ask very simple questions. Practice diaphermatic breathing before class and guard what you are letting into your mind. Look up Dr. Amen he has good tips. I have to do it at work, I've gotten better but still need work. No worries 👍
My dad and I both got covid. He unfortunately passed away from sudden cardiac death with covid being a contributor. I have pre cordial catch syndrome where I get a sharp pain in my muscles around my heart and lungs. When this happens I get anxious because I fear the worst and I’m going to die. I was the one who found my dad deceased so ptsd is a large part as well when I get these flare ups. I just want this pain and anxiety to end so I can return to my new normal. I know my dad wouldn’t want me to be worrying about this, he’d want me to take care of my family and make sure they are provided for.
@Ryan I know you posted this a year ago but what you posted here really got me and I just wanted to say that I hope and pray a year has brought you some healing and into a bit lighter place 🙏🏼
I was beaten very brutally by a group of persons when I was a crawling baby).till now I have fear(especially fear of getting beaten). and anxiety with daily headache.
anyone here know how to fight excessive overthinking? i studied computer science and have always learned to deal with things worst case scenario ... this is how i view my life ... ill have paranoia thoughts and go a deep dive into things always thinking worst case ... recently ive had period of time where i dont think about anything and take things face value but from time to time ill go down into a deep dive analyzing things and thinking worst case scenario ... i know in theory i should think "so what" and "fuck it" but its much harder then that ... please help!
Exactly the same. Also studied computer science. I have anxiety. Because of anxiety i lost self-confidence and questioning a lot how we are able to get through the life. This making me more scared. Would like to know how to overcome all of this.
How to overcome? By any means friends. If you wish to progress, you must overcome these challenges head on. Otherwise you will digress [?] Anyhow, fear can become one of your greatest assets, and you both work in computer science so you must be fairly smart people. Fear is a part of humanity, and life on earth. If you choose to overcome, you will benefit. If you choose not, it will destroy you. I’m sure your life is worth protecting, as all life is. Learn to harness fear, for good. One of my favourite teachers of fear is Cus D’Amato, Mike Tyson’s teacher. There’s a book on Amazon called ‘The Cus D’Amato Mind’. It speaks about the potentiality of fear, and even if you do not appreciate boxing, I’m sure you can appreciate the invaluable lesson on the psychology of redirecting fear positively. Cheers friends Also, go at your own pace.

Thank you ALL PRESENTERS. I happen to stumble on this post as i woke up and cant fall back to sleep thus listening to your talks make sense on what to do about my being nocturnal. It helps me to understand in context some MENTAL disorders ANXIETY DEPRESSION stemming from complex PTSD the nature of it has brought devastating physiologigal effects gutsy to my body mind or mind body (even my soul searching for my true self? Confused, go figure it out!) that im suffering from PAIN that flares up and FEAR factor FFF is prevalent and so is sudden onset of PANIC ATTACKs that worsens when subjected under highly STRESSFUL situations and ENVIRONMENT. In difficult BAD state of ALLO..whats d medical term? i forgot! That STRESSful WORK environment IN and OUT of it contibuted to the FINANCIAL distress and daily grinds of challenges SURVIVAL and COPING mechanisms navigating through LIFE in general is extremely overwhelming!!! when you are mentally ill and in denial in FEAR of being caught red handed and SHAME of the STIGMA to be judged by others as going Nuts or Crazy. Its a HELL of a ROLLER COASTER ride and i want to GET OUT of that WHEEL of misfortune no demands dry my tears and RAN AWAY from my FEARS to MY SAFE PLACE where I would find PEACE of MIND Solace Comfort Calm and feeling RELAXED enjoying LIFE with all the CARES and INNER PEACE. No more RACING THOUGHTS. Am I ALONE in feeling this or NOT?
I've had this for 10 years, didn't know what it was until the last few years, I cured mine by using it as a tool to my benefit. My sympathetic nervous system puts me in fight or flight for any of a few unknown and known triggers, initially its terrifying and that feeling can cycle and retrigger and the loop is set. After a 3 day panic attack, yes 3 days of constant waves of panic id had enough and just started hitting my heavy bag, I was determined to punish myself for feeling this way, the panic stopped after 15 mins, then returned an hour later, I threatened myself "ok we want to go again" I repeated this until they stopped and they did. The only time they show now is in places I can't do anything about, driving, shopping isles etc... I just smile to myself and say "your gonna pay for that when I get home" I'm not cured by any means, but now I actually enjoy the free motivation it gives me. If this helps only 1 person I'll be happy.
My sympathetic nervous system puts me in fight or flight for any of a few unknown and known triggers, initially its terrifying and that feeling can cycle and retrigger and the loop is set. “ Wow this is so right for me!!! Perfectly said!! It wears me out and I even cry. I stopped smoking a month ago & this is part of this feeling. Well said 👍
I didnt know l was anxious! I suffer from chronic pain and sinus issues. A Dr suggested l speak to a psychologist! So l thought about childhood abuse, being abandoned to raise 3 children alone and realised all of this. Going on to open own law firm =stress=illness
The audio is poor. When a speaker isn't directly over the mic, the sound drops off making it tedious to listen to. Use individual wireless mikes for the speakers.
Im going threw my own ptsd this past july i found my cousin lying dead in his room he was only 39 yrs old i catch myself reliving the event it affects me so bad that if i see people crying on tv or around me i can't control myself i end up crying i was never like this some days im ok but there are some dark one's as well but what i learned from this is to live life to take advantage of the ones you love and tell them how much they mean to you and i also learned how to just say fuck it and not allow myself to dwell on the stupid little things and to let go of the past life's too short
MrCeo1978buddy It is hard to figure out how to face that fear. I had a stillborn baby 18 years ago. The image is burned in my mind. For a long time, and still sometimes, when I see or hear a newborn baby, I break down and cry. That kinda reminds me of like you said when people are crying, it makes you feel like crying.
Worst type of stress is having your drivers license taken over health issue & bringing on the worse kind of anxiety bringing about PTSD like symptoms that very hard to control & than person has to continue fighting the culprit with no restraint! Been excellent driver for over 58 years
So growing up I used to worry be fearful not doing because of what could happen then more painful situations occurred nothing major just little things that put me in a uncomfortable positions it's happened more than I can count and now I don't fear just like the other comments face them LION MODE.
To the exercise part, I've read somewhere 1.activates your reward system, 2. Your body producing during muscle contraction like your own pain relievers, serotonin aso. Didn't stop with overweight your posture too. The diaphragm, the neck, all stuff combined causes problems. cause system fires wrong other muscles doing a job they are not supposed to do, getting worse. It's a whole system
What if i KNOW there is no danger or threat but i am still afraid? Fear has ruined my life and keeps it from blossoming and i KNOW its totally illogical but i cant help the feeling. I get shaky and have a nervous breakdown
@Success4theBest Did you find any help? I am the same. the Fear comes out of nowhere, usually upon awakening in the morning, so I suspect it could be the result of bad dreams, yet I don't recall any dreams. Depending on the day it can be mild or extreme. I hate it so much.
Even though I have the volume turned up to max, I can hardly hear you. I have good hearing, I think there is a problem with the video. Thanks for considering this.
Honestly most people need to understand that sometimes it's not even a mental problem, sometimes it comes from your gutt, it is your second brain and it's linked to depression and anxiety if you are always bloated or you are hardly digesting food, also watch out for your vitamins esp vitamin D
I experience fear all the time and its not fear of anyone but fear of pain and the unknown. I start imagining that i will be framed for a crime and spend the rest of my life in prision.
I think it happens to everyone to an extent, to imagine bad things that could happen to us. When those thoughts come, dont fight it, just ignore it and move on.
So everyone has anxiety it’s been designed into us for thousands of years this video helped ease my mind knowing that I’m not alone everyone feels this way but I’m glad God has given us the resilience we need to get by. I guess when we were surviving in the wilderness in ancient times these fears kept us on our toes.
Imagine a meter on our forehead, one half is green to yellow, and the other half is orange to red. The Green is Calm and Rational, Yellow is engaged and Rational, Orange excited and more emotional than rational, and the needle is in red when we are overly emotional and need to get self-aware to get the needle back to a balanced in the middle position. Since we are not robots, we will always be feeling something about something. We just have to be conscientious of our need to have a rational and emotional balance. If you are a robot, then your needle will always be in the extreme green, a non-emotional entity, that's no fun, and no way to be living. We must be meaningfully engaged and invested to achieve some kind of sense of fulfillment.
The first time I ever had anxiety was when I came back from a funeral when I was in the funeral I was fine but when I came back every time I close my eyes I would see the Casket
1:14:00 We are shown a computer program that something that you can do for yourself. Tell the story, but correct yourself. Most of the time, if you worry, you are doing this all the time, anyway, but doing it negatively. All you have to do is reverse the script. If this is a serious problem, you have already contradicted me. Now, contradict yourself and see how well it works.
A great informative session that highlight alots of main drivers in people developing mental disorders in allowing mindful tools to people with anxiety disorders to use the tools given in this video to ground themselves and assess there own situation and gain control of their out of control amygdala and balance their thoughts in order to feel relaxed when provoked with irrational anxiety.
Talking to you all who feel like you can't change your life around...I was like that for a long time, but I succeeded in changing my life by 180 degrees and now I am a 100% happier person than I was before. The one thing that really helped me was Forwago because it made me change the way I think and look at everything.
Have been living with it for so long it’s a part of me. This part of me though I have no control over and when it decides to show itself I feel like I’ve been pushed out my body and mind and have no control of anything. Even though it’s only a few moments it feels like lifetime. Add up all these moments of fear it eventually feels like eternity. I have been living with it so long it’s no longer a part of me but rather the whole me. I have no more energy for it and I’m ready to take my life back.
Fight it with confidence everyone. Dont let it control you with fear. This is your life. Don't run from it. Fight it. Speak with confidence. Shine through it. You are stronger than this.
Are you an instructor?
@@urbancommute5239 no just a person going through it as well.
@@ceaser4106 .....Ok, maybe there's help here.
But more i try more tired i am. What am i doing wrong...
@@mitch5222 hey so I had a panic attack the other day while in traffic. I didn't react to it. I stayed quiet and simply acted as if nothing was happening. My heart was pouding and felt all the sensations through my body. The only thing I did was count from 1 to 30 very slowly. So I would suggest not feeding into it with your body or mind. Simply let it go away on its own. You start feeding into it with body movements and thoughts you get more tired. Hope it helps you too. It's important to remember that it will pass.
One thing I try to do is.. to not be afraid of when anxiety comes up. I try not to run away from it, but instead, just sit with it and feel it. I ask myself, what is this feeling that I'm so scared of feeling? What does it actually feel like? Doing this can significantly reduce anxiety because you're not being inundated with the fear of anxiety in addition to the anxiety itself. Doing this allows you to observe it moreso, objectively, rather than subjectively. And, you realize that this dreaded "feeling" is really nothing. It becomes like a phantom because as soon as you are willing and able to truly sit with it, it turns out that it isn't even there. It only exist outside of it. It only exists as a [fear] of it, but, it doesn't actually exist in of itself.
Tho, this process may take a little time. At first, you just feel the anxious fear. And, you look at it and observe [how it feels], rather than looking at it as something that you are afraid of. In doing this, you must allow this feeling without resistance, and then just objectively observe exactly what this strange feeling feels like. Ask yourself why you are so afraid of feeling this feeling. You realize that this feeling isnt anywhere near as horrendous as you have been making it out to be. And, eventually, you realize it doesn't even exist. It was all a mirage created by your mind of something that you were avoiding due to your unwillingness to face it and feel it. So, you must feel it as resistance-free as you can. When you are in an anxious situation, allow the fearful feeling, and dont try to avoid it or escape it. Dont try to rush through the moment, but rather, just allow yourself to feel whatever feeling(s) comes up and then, observe it. Ask yourself.. what is so scary about this feeling? How bad is this feeling, really?
This helped alot thanks man! This also showed me what meditation really is, it's not about focusing solely on breathing but to observe your thoughts without judging it just like what you said above ^
Excellent advice!!!
Thank you for this. I was so anxious about not submitting my research proposal with 6 days to go for the deadline. I was struggling to fight the fear and it hindered me from being able to complete my task. Then, the fear of not being able to complete it came and it's like going in circle.
Sounds like a great idea. Logical. But it also sounds difficult and like it would take a lot of persistence and determination. I will try it. Thank you.
Thank you x

As long as you are trying to “mange” or “cope” with your anxiety, you will NEVER recover. How do you recover? Accept all of your symptoms as just anxiety and release fear! Recovery is inevitable!
Sincerely, someone who fully recovered from severe anxiety and panic disorder:)
Thank you :)
My issue is every time I’m in a heightened anxious state I feel like I’m going to pass out and I literally can’t think straight. My normal brain would see right through the BS anxiety and understand that there is no danger but once I’m in this extreme anxious state all I can do is run from it, which makes it worse... can you help me?
@@Z_Co95 that happens to me too. I don’t know how to accept it. It’s a nightmare.
That happens to me also ! I face it but then it brings me down again it’s a rollercoaster !
@@Z_Co95 you’re in fight or flight mode. Constant panic.. trust me, I’ve been there. You’re nervous system is sensitized and it’s the worst thing anyone can go thru BUT you can get thru this! You have to accept all of what you feel, just sit in it. The more you resist and fight is, the stronger it’ll get. This won’t hurt you, don’t worry. You also have to have faith in your will to heal and that you can. My faith is in Jesus. I literally cried for him and rededicated my life to him. I released all my fear and worries onto him. I’ve slowly but surely been in recovery for the past month. It takes time but he gives you grace.
For my future reference: 1:01:10 to 1:23:12 Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Thoughts (mental habits, overestimate risk of threat and underestimate ability to cope, difficulty disengaging from negative thoughts, dysfunctional). Feelings. Behavior.
1:07:48 Treatments:
Identify the negative automatic thoughts. Evaluate how accurate or useful the thought is. (Are there ways I could cope? It's not just positive thinking - suggesting that is not helpful. Take a more balanced, realistic view and less extreme thoughts). Replace thought with a more accurate or helpful one. Test out thoughts with exposure to feared situations (done in steps and being mindful of each feeling, response, reality and ability to cope).
1:14:55. Cognitive Bias Modification (CBM) Situation/task and pairing with healthier interpretations.
Mindfulness. Awareness. Healthier skills. Helpful.
Thank you.

Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction meditation has helped me with fear. It teaches you to observe what is happening instead of reacting to it. When you are a witness, you are no longer a victim. UPDATE: It’s 2023. Being in the eternal now and letting go of the next moment is now what I do. This has helped even more.
Well put
Luv dat
thats great
Is there a resource to find Mindfulness based stress reduction

I just want to breathe smoothly, not easily feel afraid of death, fear of various diseases, be able to fall asleep easily, wake up refreshed, and think calmly.
But what happens is sometimes difficult to sleep, shortness to breathe, heartbeat pounding fast, feeling nauseous suddenly, body limp and cold sweat, and then I thought I would die at that time
Zom - b same, its a reaction
Same here, but it will be ok! Just remember you are in control, it’s just a reaction, you can stop the feeling! Praying for you
Hey there's a podcast on Spotify called "Calming anxiety" by Martin Hewlett. Please you guys check it out. It will help a lot because this anxiety shit is no joke
First seat anywhere just relax yourself the much you relax your mind do it after that ask to yourself why you are taking anxiety just ask yourself......do it everytime when you feel anxious it help more than meditation..
@Zom - b I can related all the words you describe, I have been dealing GAD , health anxiety since 2015, I'm on therapy and medication. Meditation and breathing exercises won't work unless you body stay calm so first try to release tense in your body by doing Progressive muscle relaxation. Once your body is relax and turning off fight and flight mode then you can able to focus on meditation or breathing exercises. For chronic Anxiety person and having panic attack oftenly 24/7 fight or flight mode activated, breathing exercises and meditation will even trigger your anxiety like myself. I find myself trigger by breathing exercises which is because my body is on fight and flight mode for long periods. So what I figured it out myself is first release the tense muscle and when I feel calm I'm able to breathe normally and I can meditate or focus on my hobbies. These will reactivate your rational thinking cortex. Do progressive muscle relaxation exercise frequently as per day.
Fear has 2 meanings:
Forget
Everything
And
Run
OR
Face
Everything
And
Rise

Guys we are all going through this together but here is something that has help me alot and that is working out or boxing/mma its a really great way to take your mind off from mental anxiety go ahead and give it a shot its so great!
How I healed from this was first God because I asked him to remove it from my life and make me fearless then I just accepted it . When I would feel anxious I would talk to it and tel it to come take a seat have a look around everything is good here nothing to fear ,thanks for trying to protect me but I don’t need you anymore ,I don’t need your help and also I would force myself to just sit there and let it wash over me and feel it .I kid you not it just vanished . Another thing to realize is that the things that anxiety tells you aren’t real so any time anxiety would tel me something I would simply say that’s false it’s not real , I am not my thoughts they are simply just thoughts let them be . Then I would try to make myself feel anxiety or panic and I just couldn’t even if I tried .
This really helped me! Thankyou🥺❤️

Hallo
People with anxiety live in a very chaotic environment. It is unpredictability that make people nervous and fearful.
So the unknown and not knowing what's gonna happen brings on the anxiety.. But why does one live in chaos,Is it due to being anxious all the time ?
Please better explain it would be of help.. Thanks..

I did this to myself from a weed panic attack and it stuck with me and have had panic disorder/heart palpitations/anxiety often since then and it really has had a negative effect on my life. I feel improvement a little bit the palpitations can really play a number on me sometimes. Things that have helped me and hope these can help you to.
- Magnesium
- avoid things that destroy Magnesium like carbonated beverages, alcohol and caffeine.
- good sleep at all costs (Wear sleep mask, do what you can to get the sleep you need)
- exercise and be active
- meditation can really teach you control, breathing control, mind and body control which can really put YOU in control.
- take cold water plunges or swim. Cold water slows heart down a little, gives relief and relives inflammation. Try cold baths couple times a week after your workouts.
- pray
- lose the fear and be courageous regarding anxiety.
I think getting vitamins and minerals in your diet, exercise, cutting caffeine alcohol and drugs out like you said, meditating, music, all give a holistic wellness to the body. Also with magnesium being good for you is Inositol (vitamin B8). Omega 3.

Just hearing her describe the panic attack symptoms brings me back to how it feels to have one and gives me renewed anxiety.
Im sorry for your anxiety. I suggest you try meditation or simply relaxing music. It's a simple way to reduce stress and anxiety. Meditation provides a soothing of the mind and helps to connect with yourself. Obviously, this does not prevent being followed by a health professional. However, I believe it's a good way to take care of yourself and make you feel better. I sincerely hope that you will find your means to fight your anxiety.
I have found the cute for chronic anxiety. It's called Neuro mag. Also b complex. A good multi v and 2 thousand of omega threes. V d 3. 5 .000 a day and a good veggie diet. 90 percent of long haulers is gone and anxiety also gone. Don't give up.
its so bad
I have debilitating anxiety very often,sometimes to the point that I am paralysed on my bed or sofa trying to calm myself down internally. I realised that my anxiety was worsening one as a result of physical issues and no external stimuli. I have been suffering from this sensory deprivation for years,trying to find things to do which led me in some...peculiar situations. When I have nothing to see or do,I tend to hyperfocus on my own intrusive thoughts,which leads to that anxiety. When I leave this anxiety to bubble up without any external stimuli to focus on,I focus on those thoughts way more than I have to. The pain of having anxiety is no joke,it's the worst thing I have to deal with (other than depression) in my life,especially in a time where I need to be focused on other things the most.
I want someone to try this... I’ll tell you what my mother tells me everyday since I was child. She has said “I love you, God loves you” and I repeat back to her “I love you God loves you” it’s a reminder to your family that you are both loved. So whoever is reading this I love you and God loves you try telling your family member or spouse this everyday or before you hang up the phone..They might look at you kinda crazy or maybe they’ll say it back... it’s my norm everyday and I find it comforting and I find strength in the love for others.
Fear is not good ! Fear also beings distress and depression ! The Bible condemns Fear and says ' Fear Not ' .
Faith and peace comes from Divine God . Fear comes from the Devil and its evil !
Solution : cast your Fears on the Lord Jesus . Do not fear , for I am with you .
Isaiah 41:10 fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
The truth will make you free . The truth that Jesus is lord and Saviour connect in faith to him ....and fear will be cast out !
What a load of crap.
The instant cure for anxiety is to understand the fact that there are infinite amount of possible outcomes in this universe and our brain only thinks of a handful . A bad outcome can become the means of a good outcome in the future. Just like that a good outcome can become the means of a bad outcome. For example, you lost your job (bad thing). But then you got a new job which is better ( bad thing led to a good outcome.) It's an endless cycle. So just go with the flow and don't think about it . 😄 Goodluck.
wow thank you, needed this
Exactly lol. The worst things can also give you superpowers 😎
So true
Exactly. It's all relative. So much so that I'd wager that the concept of good and bad doesn't exist. Going by the OP's example, is losing your job really that bad of an outcome? The result of such an outcome yields either someone else's employment or that former company's retention of profits. Both of which are positives, or good outcomes. Say you were to obtain an even better job, as mentioned in OP's example, should the loss of your previous job be considered good or bad? Id reckon it should be considered neither. Our minds tries at every moment to collude with our bodies to attain their own gain (the body just wants dopamine and your mind just wants to feel whole), not yours.
If only psychiatrists knew that lil trick...it could be so easy.
The best way to conquer fear is reason. You have to see if your fear is valid enough to keep because if it is valid then you wont feel the fear it will be a caution. If its not, then you feel more dumbfounded and relaxed. Fear seems like and uncertainty than an crippling ailment. Having a realization/revelation is the fastest way to cure anxiety/depression. Gaining the proper perspective is the main goal of every persons life.
Would work expect fear is an emotional response. That is why we can be afraid of totally irrational things.
you have to give meaning to the reason though, because reason/logic alone isnt enough. and that meaning is subjective towards every individual for every separate experience
if reason was enough to conquer fear, no one would ever procrastinate ever again, because logically we KNOW what we need to do. the hard part is coming up with why.
Very well said.
I agree, I found saying my fear out loud or thinking of the worst case scenario and just accepting my fear without running away and deep breathing really helps.

Omg!! This incredible. I lived my life trying to run away from noises - loud sounds, voices, not even loud … they would cause me to panic and want to get away. As I got older, it got worse. By my 50s it was out of control, unmanageable and taking over my life.
I realised it was the fear induced by the domestic violence and abuse I was forced to witness as a young child in the house where I lived. That is why I still feel the need to “get far away.” Loads sounds trigger my fight of flight response.

2 of my panic attacks began in my sofa, I was afraid of laying down in that sofa and having another one for a while. Watching this video I decided to go and confront it, telling myself there is no reason for me to be afraid.

After a bout with the flu and mono 40 yrs ago I was left with chronic fatigue muscle pain depression and multiple symptoms. It's a nightmare. No doctors would listen at all and prescribed anti depressants and antinflammtory med. Here over forty years I've finally made them realize I wasn't deluded. God bless don't give up.
Write down your fear gives sense of release and then analysing it how accurate or useful the thought is helps to understand the thought patterns and then changing it with right thought makes the right thought your natural thought with time and yes doing exercises and meditation with it and eating nutritious diet helps
Any specific diet tips? Thanks
Actually it can help for some anxiety disorders but for OCD is the opposite, just stop thinking, don't waste energy with the thought, put your energy into something else importante "if you stop chasing the sticks your brain throw for you, it will eventually stop sending them"
I've been writing in my diary daily my fear of my violent brother, l has called the cops on him 2 days ago, l had to sleep overnight in the hotel. Now lm home again and afriad to leave my room, always checking to see if his in his bedroom before coming out of my room. I can't stay in any room fir too long in fear he will come out of his room and start talking to me. I carry around a pair a scissors on my hip, in case he might attack me. I carry it around on my all day every day. I carry my phone around too, in case l need to call the cops on him again. I'm so depressed 😔

It's also amazing they skip over family dysfunction? I was bullied by 7 people in family.
Just happened to be what parents (birds of a feather) had in their pasts to aim at and I
fit because I was first born (lucky me) Ever after even the more educated part of my family refuses to believe that because parent's had their saga . One sibling however has admitted I was picked on more than anyone in family. I got it too because of the people they were abused by. I have been in therapy a while and just deciding to leave. Why? Because all they do is mechanical stuffing meds down your throat which don't help at all. And I was also diagnosed with some PTSD.
Not that I should be ashamed of this I am lucky to be alive due parents. So the stress that I still have is not sometimes something I can cope with.
I too was picked on just left Ohio a week ago age 53. "black sheep" of the family. I believe in No contact with narcissistic family members if at all possible. Listening to Eckhart Tolle has helped me as well as yoga, walking, and meditating, probiotics-some. Ayurvedic herbs and other alternative treatments may help, like acupuncture/pressure. It;s comforting to me sometimes, just to read about all the helpful herbs that are out there. Good luck on your journey :) You are not alone.
Gine theough the same thing.
I was bullied as well by three of my uncle's they where these big strong guys lift weights act really tuff then i grew up to find out i was the strong one mentally but my uncle's on the other hand where like scared little boys trapped in a grown man's body im constantly battling myself over how the way they treated me was a lie and im learning how to forgive them because of the way my grandfather treated them like shit so it's a on going fight in my mind i want to tell them how i feel about the way they treated me but i think they wouldn't be able to deal with it
@@lulumann3171 my therapist bassically told me nothing can help me and there's drugs, some therapists be better than others ig
You would benefit from the 12 steps of AA and regular meetings believe it or not.
37:58 i suggest adding a 5th set of questions to mirrow it (how do my xy work, how did it develop, what is it for, how did it evolve?). It will put your knowledge in perspective. You ll see that there are funktions of this object that you can not catch, you can not know yet. Because you yourself are not developed enough. That will help you to keep an open mind to everything you work on and to search for new answers and test new theories, even if you already decided what you think "it" is for. Add a set of mirrowing questions to the person who answers the first set of questions. That will make you see more. Basically add a 5th question named "Is the person answering the four questions developed enough to get that 4 questions right?"
The definitive video will include biological differences between each one of us, including those who inherit fears, war traumas. Also, some of us are just wired WAY more sensitively than others. Others of us have fears that began pre-verbally as infants or before that can't be reached by CBT but by image/active imagination. Of course if this happened, then these people would have to admit their approach doesn't help everyone. Maybe the next generation...
Wow, this has been a long time coming. We need more programs like this. We need to bring back the "humanness" in treating mental illness. Thank you.

I have anxiety and depression becuz
Of how people treat. I know I'm different and can eccentric. I think I have autism but was never diagnosed. I know I need help but don't know where to go. I medicate with nips to help me blend in at work
I recommend reaching out for help...it is scary but exciting knowing that there is a chance you don’t have to deal with everything forever and that there is hope
I have really severe anxiety, GAD. It's all like starting from scratch with just about everything. I'm really afraid I'll never be good again. I can't even go out by myself anymore
Theres a reason why 8 hours ago you commented on a video on TH-cam that is 5 years old.
Know that your not alone Ann.
@@meme-yc4ks yes..?
Have you gotten any better?
I haven't had a fear free time in over 16 years
Wow...this has helped me a lot with fear, stress, and anxiety.
I extend my deep gratitude to the uploader and the ones who have managed to put such beautiful comments in the section❤️❤️
I have a bad anxiety about breathing. My therapist recommended whim hoffs breathing walkthrough and I was crying and laughing when I finished it. Facing that anxiety head on has helped me feel a bit more normal.
Yeah bro me 2
Excellent subject, EXCELLENT speakers, my Goodness!!
Already, I have begun putting together a number of options for a client suffering PTSD from long term childhood trauma. Every speaker gave me incredible information but I must highlight Dr Beard for targeted therapies and her computerized approach to our instinctive reactions to situations. An important and evidential based research project. Wonderful. I am very pleased to have come across this important lecture on TH-cam. Thank you all so much!!
Hello everyone, I just wanted to share with you one method which is helping me to deal with my anxiety.
When you feel the anxiety, find some body movement which is pleasant for you and which you can do repeatedly for a long period of time. Some examples of such movements are bowing forward and back while sitting, or rotating your body left and right while standing letting your hands to wave freely, or imitating hand movements of the skiier who is pushing his skiing poles, or waving hands like during swiming, just find what you body likes and what movement you may repeat almost indefinitly.
Then just do this movement as long as you still experience anxiety or fear or anger. It could be anything between 1 minute and 1 hour depending on your state. But don't force yourself, the movement should be pleasant and easy and harmless to do. And don't try to relax. Don't try to force bad thoughts to go away. Just keep moving and thinking about the things you want to think about. If you will want something, like cry, then cry. If you will want to sleep then stop moving and go to sleep. Continue this exercise untill you feel yourself relaxed. Again don't force yourself if you feel tired, then sit or lie and take a rest.
It is very simple, and it helped me a lot. There is a whole channel about this method from its author: th-cam.com/video/wl-k-0OP2lM/w-d-xo.html , unfortunately it is not in English.
I have many fear. Being alone at home, going outside alone, fear of getting locked. Fear of going out without holding some of the things etc.
Consult a doctor, you will become better.

Hi Dianna, you can check our video on 3 Stress Busting Tips & Myths at th-cam.com/video/IBoE0ifac_Y/w-d-xo.html
In this video, we share 3 ways to overcome stress and we debunk 3 common stress myths too.
You’ll be able to implement these tips immediately and bust your stress once and for all.
Plus you’ll learn more about chronic stress, the role your perception plays in stress, and the difference between good and bad stress.
I got this anxiety too. I’ve had two accidents and it’s definitely made me have more anxiety. Damn I didn’t really think of that before
Thank you all for the amazing mahi you do for our whanau 🥰 you are appreciated 🙏
Okay with CBT I get it you focus on what is causing you to have a fear response. However, there are panic disorders where the panic attacks come out of the blue with no specific fear attached to them. Is CBT all we have?
Thank you so much for this outstanding seminar with a very interesting subject.
I’m having a bad anxiety fit well I’m watching this video and it won’t leave me alone The thing is is that I don’t know what I’m afraid of mine Zaidi just happens for no reason now are used to be afraid of multiple things but I got over those fears not mine Zaidi is just random and I don’t know why I am crying because that’s the only way I know how to alleviate the stress
Yeah I just cry it all out and my heart just calms down but I don't like crying..
I love when she said to make yourself lost, I remember when I was a kid I was staying in a hotel and I did the same very thing, but I was thinking that I was weird, thought that way most of my life , (now 46) and to hear someone else say to deliberately get yourself lost, maybe I'm not that weird after all. I wished more people would make more things acceptable to make us not feel we have to walk a tightrope all of the time trying to hide our fears or insecurities, I think the world would be a better place, well at least I would hope that it would.
I deal with anxiety at times but it seems to change for me when I become aware of what's happening in the process. It reaches a peak where I have to ask God what is going on with me. I have strong feeling of my heart feeling gripped by grief, anger, sadness all wrapped in one. So, I try to understand/distinguish how did I get here.
same thing with me since 6 years i drinking paroxeten and now escitalopram but when I stop its come back again and now i don't interest in any things. i lost my libido sleep and also sexual function. i am disappointed from my life and activities. please someone help me.
Fantastic Seminar , very rich Talk and interesting subject :-)
Thank you to All Speakers :-)
I study in middle school. And iam feared of public speaking. I am so fear to raise my hands in my class to ask some questions. How can i overcome it
Same bru its like I'm always worried about what the next person gotta say about me
Mmm
@@jadenmckline6972 Don't care what others think. Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one and most of them stink.
Public Speaking is not easy but start small. Start raising your hand and ask very simple questions. Practice diaphermatic breathing before class and guard what you are letting into your mind. Look up Dr. Amen he has good tips. I have to do it at work, I've gotten better but still need work. No worries 👍
Spotify, Calming anxiety by Martin Hewlett
My dad and I both got covid. He unfortunately passed away from sudden cardiac death with covid being a contributor. I have pre cordial catch syndrome where I get a sharp pain in my muscles around my heart and lungs. When this happens I get anxious because I fear the worst and I’m going to die. I was the one who found my dad deceased so ptsd is a large part as well when I get these flare ups. I just want this pain and anxiety to end so I can return to my new normal. I know my dad wouldn’t want me to be worrying about this, he’d want me to take care of my family and make sure they are provided for.
Hope youll be okay soon!
❤🎉
@Ryan I know you posted this a year ago but what you posted here really got me and I just wanted to say that I hope and pray a year has brought you some healing and into a bit lighter place 🙏🏼
I love playful fear, it’s good for you. Or to be strong past fear is powerful.
I was beaten very brutally by a group of persons when I was a crawling baby).till now I have fear(especially fear of getting beaten). and anxiety with daily headache.
Yo can I suggest a podcast on spotify?
Emdr. Look it up
My condolences :(
anyone here know how to fight excessive overthinking? i studied computer science and have always learned to deal with things worst case scenario ... this is how i view my life ... ill have paranoia thoughts and go a deep dive into things always thinking worst case ... recently ive had period of time where i dont think about anything and take things face value but from time to time ill go down into a deep dive analyzing things and thinking worst case scenario ... i know in theory i should think "so what" and "fuck it" but its much harder then that ... please help!
Exactly the same. Also studied computer science. I have anxiety. Because of anxiety i lost self-confidence and questioning a lot how we are able to get through the life. This making me more scared. Would like to know how to overcome all of this.
How to overcome? By any means friends. If you wish to progress, you must overcome these challenges head on. Otherwise you will digress [?]
Anyhow, fear can become one of your greatest assets, and you both work in computer science so you must be fairly smart people.
Fear is a part of humanity, and life on earth. If you choose to overcome, you will benefit. If you choose not, it will destroy you. I’m sure your life is worth protecting, as all life is.
Learn to harness fear, for good.
One of my favourite teachers of fear is Cus D’Amato, Mike Tyson’s teacher. There’s a book on Amazon called ‘The Cus D’Amato Mind’. It speaks about the potentiality of fear, and even if you do not appreciate boxing, I’m sure you can appreciate the invaluable lesson on the psychology of redirecting fear positively.
Cheers friends
Also, go at your own pace.

Thank you ALL PRESENTERS. I happen to stumble on this post as i woke up and cant fall back to sleep thus listening to your talks make sense on what to do about my being nocturnal. It helps me to understand in context some MENTAL disorders ANXIETY DEPRESSION stemming from complex PTSD the nature of it has brought devastating physiologigal effects gutsy to my body mind or mind body (even my soul searching for my true self? Confused, go figure it out!) that im suffering from PAIN that flares up and FEAR factor FFF is prevalent and so is sudden onset of PANIC ATTACKs that worsens when subjected under highly STRESSFUL situations and ENVIRONMENT. In difficult BAD state of ALLO..whats d medical term? i forgot! That STRESSful WORK environment IN and OUT of it contibuted to the FINANCIAL distress and daily grinds of challenges SURVIVAL and COPING mechanisms navigating through LIFE in general is extremely overwhelming!!! when you are mentally ill and in denial in FEAR of being caught red handed and SHAME of the STIGMA to be judged by others as going Nuts or Crazy. Its a HELL of a ROLLER COASTER ride and i want to GET OUT of that WHEEL of misfortune no demands dry my tears and RAN AWAY from my FEARS to MY SAFE PLACE where I would find PEACE of MIND Solace Comfort Calm and feeling RELAXED enjoying LIFE with all the CARES and INNER PEACE. No more RACING THOUGHTS. Am I ALONE in feeling this or NOT?
I've had this for 10 years, didn't know what it was until the last few years, I cured mine by using it as a tool to my benefit.
My sympathetic nervous system puts me in fight or flight for any of a few unknown and known triggers, initially its terrifying and that feeling can cycle and retrigger and the loop is set.
After a 3 day panic attack, yes 3 days of constant waves of panic id had enough and just started hitting my heavy bag, I was determined to punish myself for feeling this way, the panic stopped after 15 mins, then returned an hour later, I threatened myself "ok we want to go again" I repeated this until they stopped and they did.
The only time they show now is in places I can't do anything about, driving, shopping isles etc...
I just smile to myself and say "your gonna pay for that when I get home"
I'm not cured by any means, but now I actually enjoy the free motivation it gives me.
If this helps only 1 person I'll be happy.

Wow this is so right for me!!! Perfectly said!! It wears me out and I even cry. I stopped smoking a month ago & this is part of this feeling. Well said 👍
@@gogussie stay strong mate, well done for quitting smoking
I didnt know l was anxious! I suffer from chronic pain and sinus issues. A Dr suggested l speak to a psychologist! So l thought about childhood abuse, being abandoned to raise 3 children alone and realised all of this. Going on to open own law firm =stress=illness
I had this and recovered, then I developed heart disease. I am having problems with anxiety again.
The audio is poor. When a speaker isn't directly over the mic, the sound drops off making it tedious to listen to. Use individual wireless mikes for the speakers.
Im going threw my own ptsd this past july i found my cousin lying dead in his room he was only 39 yrs old i catch myself reliving the event it affects me so bad that if i see people crying on tv or around me i can't control myself i end up crying i was never like this some days im ok but there are some dark one's as well but what i learned from this is to live life to take advantage of the ones you love and tell them how much they mean to you and i also learned how to just say fuck it and not allow myself to dwell on the stupid little things and to let go of the past life's too short
MrCeo1978buddy It is hard to figure out how to face that fear. I had a stillborn baby 18 years ago. The image is burned in my mind. For a long time, and still sometimes, when I see or hear a newborn baby, I break down and cry. That kinda reminds me of like you said when people are crying, it makes you feel like crying.
MrCeo1978buddy I also want to say that I am sorry for your loss and pain.
Worst type of stress is having your drivers license taken over health issue & bringing on the worse kind of anxiety bringing about PTSD like symptoms that very hard to control & than person has to continue fighting the culprit with no restraint! Been excellent driver for over 58 years
Watching this for one and half hour will certainly trigger anxiety.
Funni
some lines make my mind blow. what we're not able to do?
So growing up I used to worry be fearful not doing because of what could happen then more painful situations occurred nothing major just little things that put me in a uncomfortable positions it's happened more than I can count and now I don't fear just like the other comments face them LION MODE.
Ry Levi how you overcome ?
To the exercise part, I've read somewhere 1.activates your reward system, 2. Your body producing during muscle contraction like your own pain relievers, serotonin aso. Didn't stop with overweight your posture too. The diaphragm, the neck, all stuff combined causes problems. cause system fires wrong other muscles doing a job they are not supposed to do, getting worse. It's a whole system
The volume levels are low.
No one doesn't really know what they are doing and I hope that brings you comfort
What if i KNOW there is no danger or threat but i am still afraid? Fear has ruined my life and keeps it from blossoming and i KNOW its totally illogical but i cant help the feeling. I get shaky and have a nervous breakdown
We are the same . There is no day that i dont feel fear even someone shout happily my stomach goes up my throat

@@jadenvasquez6662thx
@Success4theBest Did you find any help? I am the same. the Fear comes out of nowhere, usually upon awakening in the morning, so I suspect it could be the result of bad dreams, yet I don't recall any dreams. Depending on the day it can be mild or extreme. I hate it so much.
I love how they are doing a big of what they are talking with sound .listem
Even though I have the volume turned up to max, I can hardly hear you. I have good hearing, I think there is a problem with the video. Thanks for considering this.
Honestly most people need to understand that sometimes it's not even a mental problem, sometimes it comes from your gutt, it is your second brain and it's linked to depression and anxiety if you are always bloated or you are hardly digesting food, also watch out for your vitamins esp vitamin D
I experience fear all the time and its not fear of anyone but fear of pain and the unknown. I start imagining that i will be framed for a crime and spend the rest of my life in prision.
I think it happens to everyone to an extent, to imagine bad things that could happen to us. When those thoughts come, dont fight it, just ignore it and move on.
Sadly if you grew up in a violent home for the many years you are so wired for hyper vigilance, anxiety and phobia. It ruins lives.
So everyone has anxiety it’s been designed into us for thousands of years this video helped ease my mind knowing that I’m not alone everyone feels this way but I’m glad God has given us the resilience we need to get by. I guess when we were surviving in the wilderness in ancient times these fears kept us on our toes.
Read the books by Dr Claire Weekes or listen to her on TH-cam. She provided the answer 60 years ago. Many of today’s therapists follow her teachings.
Mindfulness practice helps a lot. Also as the panic arises I immediately take Aconite 200 homeopathy. It’s like magic stops panic from escalating.
Imagine a meter on our forehead, one half is green to yellow, and the other half is orange to red. The Green is Calm and Rational, Yellow is engaged and Rational, Orange excited and more emotional than rational, and the needle is in red when we are overly emotional and need to get self-aware to get the needle back to a balanced in the middle position. Since we are not robots, we will always be feeling something about something. We just have to be conscientious of our need to have a rational and emotional balance. If you are a robot, then your needle will always be in the extreme green, a non-emotional entity, that's no fun, and no way to be living. We must be meaningfully engaged and invested to achieve some kind of sense of fulfillment.
The first time I ever had anxiety was when I came back from a funeral when I was in the funeral I was fine but when I came back every time I close my eyes I would see the Casket
1:14:00 We are shown a computer program that something that you can do for yourself. Tell the story, but correct yourself. Most of the time, if you worry, you are doing this all the time, anyway, but doing it negatively. All you have to do is reverse the script.
If this is a serious problem, you have already contradicted me. Now, contradict yourself and see how well it works.
This is impressive, the title is interesting enough.
Great, insightful presentation. Thanks for sharing with the world😊

Very informative and powerful. Thank you.
A great informative session that highlight alots of main drivers in people developing mental disorders in allowing mindful tools to people with anxiety disorders to use the tools given in this video to ground themselves and assess there own situation and gain control of their out of control amygdala and balance their thoughts in order to feel relaxed when provoked with irrational anxiety.

@@VijayKumar-bk4zi Emotional Freedom Technique. Some people swear by it working.
Have been living with it for so long it’s a part of me. This part of me though I have no control over and when it decides to show itself I feel like I’ve been pushed out my body and mind and have no control of anything. Even though it’s only a few moments it feels like lifetime. Add up all these moments of fear it eventually feels like eternity. I have been living with it so long it’s no longer a part of me but rather the whole me. I have no more energy for it and I’m ready to take my life back.
how are you doing this?
