Love your channel Dan. Wanted to send you a couple bucks for whatever but maybe to help towards treatment. 38yr old skater from Maine living in Tahoe for 12 yrs. Btw, your ability to self reflect and your self awareness is really amazing, particularly fighting through anxiety disorder. I've been there A LOT myself, it's not easy to freak out and then reset and come out clearer and stronger. Love ya dude 👊🏼👊🏼
My schizo/bipolor symptoms have been getting worse recently and hearing you talk about your own physical/mental health issues made me feel less alone about it. Thank you so much, wishing you all the best with it!
Hey Dan. Sorry you’re dealing with this stuff. I relate to a lot of the symptoms you described although for a different reason/diagnosis. You are such a rad dude and your community loves you. Take it easy and try to not put too much pressure on yourself. Take care dude.
I had lyme as a kid, it eventually evolved into ME/CFS. i'm 35 now and i'm mostly home and bed bound. I used to be extremely active but now i spend most most my days just resting. There are days where even chewing food takes too much energy to do. My heart goes out to you and wish you the best going forward.
I had Lyme when I was in my early 20's before there were a lot of studies, and doctors didn't have an understanding on how to treat it. It ruined 8 years of my life, the panic attacks, my nervous system was destroyed, spams, fevers.I felt like I was crazy and dying. I'm in my early 40's now, and that period of my life will forever haunt me. I learned a real lot though, and I can tell you that it will get better. Today we have studies, and doctors who have a deeper understanding. All the best Dan. I won't give you unsolicited health advice, though I do have some tips if you ever were seeking some from someone who has experience. The best tip though is to advocate for yourself, and if you are not getting anywhere move on as fast as you can. All the best man
I’ve had LD since 92 and it kicked my ass mentally and physically. I still have heart issues but I’m used to it and listen to my body more than ever. Hang in there and kick ass.
Thanks for sharing with us, Dan. Takes courage to be vulnerable like that, and I think a lot of us who suffer from some form of chronic illness can relate and are comforted by you taking the time to talk about what you're going through. Your mentality is extremely positive and it makes me want to be more positive as well. Love you, man.
Hey, don't get too down on that diagnosis, Dan. I've read a bunch of stuff on Lyme Disease, and it seems the prognosis for even later-diagnosed cases is positive. The recovery is longer, but the antibiotics course should work. Corrigans FTW! ( I'm a Canuck Corrigan ;) )
lymes is propaganda that comes out of the 'alternative' health food industry , which has since crossed over into mainstream medicine and literally translates to 'you're putting garbage into your body and you're toxic but we'll call it Lymes and now blame a tick so be afraid to walk into nature now" .
Big props to you for talking about your health issues. You're not alone, bro. Your head seems to be in the right place, that's half the battle won right there.
So sorry to hear that dude. You're one of the most strategic skaters of all time who thinks about tricks like a puzzle. This is just a new part of the puzzle. Can't just throw tons of attempts at a trick anymore hoping to get lucky, you gotta try a handful, think about what you need to change while taking a break to let your heart chill, and then go at it again. Now that you know what the problem is I'm sure you can thrive.
I feel you man. I've been struggling with panic attacks and SI this last year and a half, and what's been a massive help has been this channel. Just watching people doing something they love with their friends is so cathartically relaxing for me. Whenever I'm having a bad day and I think I'm going nuts, seeing a new video from you in my feed immediately helps sooth the pain.
We appreciate you being so open and letting us know. I’m a newer person too your channel only been about a few months but I love your content and I hope the absolute best for you.
I pretty much never comment, but I just want to say that I'm with you Dan!!! (By with you i mean liking and watching your vids haha). I've been watching pretty much since the beginning, and you changed my whole attitude to skating, and helped me learn to enjoy it a lot more than i have, (which in turn motivated me to skate more often ) which I am incredibly thankful for! The health thing really sucks, and I can't even begin to imagine how much. But I am just super excited to see you rolling around again, even if not as often or intense as before! And I am sure that whatever the case, you'll still be able to enjoy doing it! (Though i hope and wish that the health stuff is not going to be as serious as it may) Love and wish you the best, Dan!
damn. I'm glad it's not lupus or worse. Lyme disease is as bad as it gets for long term disability. Thank you for being so brave and sharing. Good luck in Tampa. The footage you get will be top tier anyway. Cuz that's the kind of pro you are.
So brave of you to out yourself out there and talk about your health issues. I hope it helps as part of your journey to better physical and mental health. Praying for a full recovery.
As a fellow Dan, fellow dude, and just fellow human being I am so proud of you for talking about your mental health publicly like this! I just had a daughter 3 months ago and with fatherhood has come some anxiety that I've never felt before. It's hard sometimes to talk to friends about it, let alone 100k strangers on the internet! Props to you my guy! (Btw my daughter loves when I put your videos or Nyjah on TV for bottle time. Both calm her right down!) Lymes is no joke man, but we're all behind you, there's no one here that would blame you a bit if things slow! Rest and heal the best you can! Glad you have answers and genuinely stoked to watch your journey and follow you through this!
Love you dude. Your channel got me through a really hard time in 2021 when I was going through some health issues. All better now, and I hope to hear the same from you soon dude. Stay positive.
Lyme disease came to mind cause of the fog and fatigue. Get better my man! Edit: just finished. I have a friend with Lyme disease and it's no joke. Best of luck with getting treatment
Man I’m glad that Lyme disease doesn’t exist in Australia. I’ve removed half a dozen or so ticks from myself after camping trips throughout my life. Also glad I never caught that mammalian meat allergy that some of em carry. I like seafood and stuff but life would be pretty bleak without steak lol
Hey I’m an old skater rat surfer who loves your videos. I’m gonna start praying for you to return to complete health and be healed to your original awesomeness. I am a boardsporter with city, state & national wins in skating, snowboarding and surfing. You can never under estimate the power & impact of having people sending you good vibes! Good luck on your health and keep up all the great vids. God Bless 🛹🏂🏄🏽♂️🇺🇸🙏✝️
Had an idea it was Lyme. I’m in Pa. I got it last summer. Never saw the tick. Had a rash, but not the bulls eye. Went to the ER and they misdiagnosed it, gave me the wrong antibiotics. Went to the Dr. he found it was Lyme. Took doxycycline. That worked a lot better. I still get some of the brain fog. Drinking electrolytes seems to help. I ride 25 miles or more on my bike almost every day, so eventually you can still push yourself hard. Lyme was horrible the first month. Didn’t eat, fever, way worse than Covid.
One of my favorite artists Ren has Lyme. Check out his story, his finding out what was wrong, and his road to recovery on youtube. It's truly inspiring! All the best Dan!
This video was very emotional for me. I was a pro skater in my late teens/early twenties (early 2000s), but I experienced a series of debilitating health issues that ended my skating career forever. I've now found a new path in life that fills my heart with utter joy, but losing my ability to skate wreaked havoc on my life and mental health throughout my 20s. I recently started watching your channel as a way to connect with the skating community again, and now to hear you're going through something even vaguely similar really hits close to home. I wish you all the best and I thank you so much for talking about mental health in skateboarding.
I had panic attacks for years. I have a multiple sclerosis diagnosed in 2015. It could be associated with a neurologic disease. What all of these autoimmune diseases have in common is a need for vitamin D and magnesium. Get good quality supplements of those and take it regularly. It really helps long term
So sorry to hear brother. I'm glad you got a diagnosis. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your story though. It's super important for others to hear cuz it gives them something to check. Best of vibes for improving and getting stronger! 🙏❤️
I feel ya, lung condition here and only getting worse, and gets worse each time I get the vid (I think that's what's gonna get me in the end). No idea how Lime Desease effects you but know a thing or two about exaustion and it's a bummer for sure. Makes you feel happy for what you have and what you can still do and very much that the time is now, do things now and not wait. Anyhow it's the things that you can do that make you not the things you can't. keep posting these videos keep finding things to be happy about and all the best. Not plugging this guy at all but have a look and Ren on youtube and a song called "Hi Ren" by Ren. He has Limes Desease and is getting treatment that seems to be going well, he is very truthfull about his troubles as well...Be safe.
Around 2016 i started to make real changes in my diet and cleaned up my living ; around 2022 i had a serious set back that really made me minimize my diet to necessity. You are your best advocate at your own dinner table and in your own kitchen. I went protein and healthy fats and low carb , no sugar , no grill , no smoke. I am not a doctor. love your video's
Can you list your daily regimen and routine and whatever you do to be healthy and the changes that you made and how much better that you are now and stuff like that tbh as well tho too?? Like exactly what you pretty much eat and drink everyday.....and also any of any supplements and any vitamins and then anything else that you do everyday too.
Sorry to hear, Dan. Be aware, that testing for Lyme is extremely controversial tho. I know it's great to have something on paper, but yea, it might actually be long covid or ME/cfs, which is what I've had for the last 22 years. I'm one of those you talked about who completely had their lives ruined by it.. only got worse and worse since then for me. Hope you'll have more luck and figure out how to deal with it or even improve. All the best!
@MichaelKeithton There's a thing called ME/cfs / chronic fatigue syndrome / post viral fatigue syndrome / whatever you want to call it. You can get that from several viral infections like Mono, which is caused by the Epstein Barr virus as one example. They made this absolute bitch move calling it long Covid / post Covid for the first 6 months after you first got it and only after diagnose you with ME/cfs... As you can't test for any of those conditions, many doctors won't take you serious and try telling you it's all in your head, so many end up getting a Lyme diagnosis instead, as tests for that have an extremely low accuracy rate, but people just seem to take that over not having any positive testing at all, even if it's a false positive
Just look at how many famous people claimed to have Lyme the last couple years, but somehow none of them remember having had a tick bite and those extremely noticeable round rashes you'd get after an infection, just like Dan described it.. it's a bit odd, isn't it?
@@MichaelKeithton dude.. I just wrote a pretty long answer to your question, did TH-cam remove that one? All I see is my shorter second reply about lyme now..
I know its gonna sound cheesy, but my gram just died in an accidental house fire. Skateboarding myself, and watching you and Andy and the boys has been so therapeutic. I forced myself down my local 12 foot roll-in (Lock Haven, Pennsylvania Skatepark) and it felt so god damn good. I told myself she passed in such a difficult way if I get hurt, its still nothin compared to what she endured. I already suffer from acute PTSD and bipolar disorder so my mind has been a wasteland recently. Pushing myself into scarier things is helping me organize and live with the chaos. Regardless, you aren't alone in your mental and physical struggles. From one skater to another, ride on🤙
Get well soon ! I hope that you'll recover and be able to skate to your full capacity as soon as possible. Your videos helped me through some rough times and I want to thank you for that. Take care
Commenting on the panic attack portion of the video: spot on. My partner has had and continues to have panic-anxiety due to PTSD/several trauma. I was always one of those people who was like 'bullshit, mind over matter, cmon you got this, push through'... until I had my first actual panic attack. My partner, bless their soul, guided me through that terrible, life-changing experience with love and grace. I spent the next three hours apologizing to my partner for minimizing their attacks due to my own ignorance and i'll never make that mistake with ANY ailment again.
deadass found ur channel like an hour ago but bro so far this video is giving me that weird "glad that i'm not alone" feeling, you know? i've had fibromyalgia and ocd and panic shit for most my life and idk the like 5 videos of urs ive watched so far ur at a level i didnt even realise was possible for someone like me. ty homie
Thanks for the health update man, I really appreciate it. Take it easy for sure and you should by no means feel pressured to skate or upload if you're pushing your limits. I wish you the best Dan
So sorry to hear, but I guess it's good to finally know what you have. I actually thought Lime disease was quite possible, I live in Idaho, which we (jokingly) refer to as "the tick fever state" Also I have recently been watching a lot of Ren videos. Not sure if you're familiar with him, but he went through about 10 years of trying to figure out what was ailing him, and finally realized it was Lime. His story is crazy, basically bed ridden for years, doctors told him it was all in his head. Eventually experienced complete psychosis. (before the diagnosis, he's doing very well now) Good luck to you, you got this.
Sorry to hear this mate, I hope any treatment forthcoming helps you. There is a UK music artist called Ren, who has limes disease and has been suffering, for a long time, but it has been a gift and a curse for him, definitely worth checking him out and maybe even reaching out to him, as he has been on a very long journey figuring things out. He is really down with you tubers and a super kind person...I know he can help you!
when you find yourself dying, but you survive everytime. the way through is to embrace those feelings. let them in. you might find something cool within.
The technique that helped me was imagining the attack as a wave. And you are a surfer and you need to jump on it and surf it! Let it go, like on a rollercoaster. It works! And it gets easier over time
Im glad you are feeling better. Getting bit by a tick is surprising. Take care of yourself with good food and water and get off their medicines ASAP. You can now relax your body isn't as big of a mess as you think
You've been a big inspiration for me, just watching your videos; I've seen the course your life has taken, through youtube, over the past couple of years and its been this linear progression which is so positive to witness. Now this health situation you've been dealing with has the quality of almost cosmic comedy, like fate has taken the string of your life and plucked it, just to see how the vibrations will play out. It certainly doesn't seem fair. But hopefully the same perseverance and temerity you've used to fight through any hardships you've already faced will serve you here. Skate when you can, rest when you have to, and make videos as long as it makes sense for you. And thanks for your work. Hope you beat this.
Lyme disease is what I've been thinking the past couple times I've heard you talk about it. Im commenting this at the 1:30 mark. 14 min, I wish I had commented this to you earlier. You should look up Ren, he is a UK musician that had it, they misdiagnosed him for years which lead to a lot of bad things. He talks alot about it and has tried really hard to bring more knowledge to the world about the disease and treatments, ect.
Good luck man. For what it's worth, I had long "vid" for a while, and was tested for lymes (negative). I had pretty much the same symptoms. Racing heart, anxiety, fatigue, derealization, auditory hallucinations, etc. I was basically stuck in fight or flight 24/7. Having a previous panic disorder or health anxiety is definitely a factor in all of it. Part of recovering is learning to trust that your body will be okay. Fear of the disease itself kept the symptoms going on longer for me. The symptom/anxiety feedback loop. Hopefully this is somewhat helpful. This just sounds so much like what I went through and all of the "mystery illnesses" I've gone through. The loop of anxiety, getting weird feelings in my heart, getting more anxious because those feelings, having my heart feel worse because I'm even more anxious, etc. Not saying this is for sure what's going on with you. Just something to be aware of. Most of all, even if things take a turn for the worse, don't lose hope. There were many times I thought I was going to ☠ or that I would never get better. Best of luck.
Lyme disease is so wild but medicine can do so much these days. Keep fighting and remember that your state of mind and attitude along the way will effect a LOT. Stay positive brother. You got this
lyme sucks man, I'm sorry to hear. on the antibiotics.. you should only take antibiotics for bacterial infections. antibiotics destroy the gut biome and that's why you are having stomach issues following taking it. try adding kombucha or yoghurt AFTER you finish the full cycle of taking them if you plan on taking it again. use caution and ask your doctor if it is even needed because from what you described it does not sound like it.
Doctors always prescribe antibiotics.. That's all they know how to do. My sis is a vet and every "solution" is antibiotics. If your dealing with mental struggles, antibiotics will only make them worse. Gut health is everything. It's shocking how much it affects your mood and body
Yo! I was watching one of your videos talking about being able to finally get back on your board and thought, man that kinda sounds like what REN was/ is going through… he went years without a proper diagnosis. I thought I wasn’t qualified enough to give any advice on health care. I know that it’s probably a relief finally having an answer. I broke a vertebra and it went misdiagnosed for a couple years. I refractured it over and over, either by work or physical therapy and chiropractor “adjusting” me. The surgeon said that the one vertebra could be spun freely around my spinal cord. When I finally had an X-ray and got the “hey, so it turns out there was something wrong with your back after all “ from the same military doctor that misdiagnosed me over and over.. I felt relieved after the surgeon told my wife and I that I shouldn’t have been able to walk in for that first surgery, and I had the freshly carved up back I wanted to choke that military doctor and show everyone I knew that I wasn’t just faking or something. I sent a picture of my back with a drain tube coming out of it and the wounds where they took out a rib for the donor bone and the one going down my spine where they put the bone and titanium rod and screws to my supervisor. Hospital gown wide open…my whole ars in view. I felt vindicated I guess. Like finally I had answers and that I wasn’t making it all up in my head somehow. Sadly it still ended up costing me my career. I was told the surgery would make it so I could reach my 20 year mark at the least. My only goal was to reach retirement from active duty(20+ years). I was medically retired at 10 years to the day. I’ve been in constant pain for over a decade now… a few surgeries and a truckload full of medications and lots of time spent praying I could will myself to fall asleep so I could sleep through the pain on rougher days. I hope you have a much better go at it. I wish you nothing but the absolute best.
You need to have a look at Welsh 🏴 singer - songwriter "Ren" he has it also and had to travel to Canada for treatment.And for years didnt know he had it but described all the Psychosis and other symptoms you described,he's wrote and sang some hard hitting songs about his struggles with it,worth checking out Dan.Get well soon bud.🙏
The only thing that works with panic for me, its to drink a gallon of water + a glass of water with alka seltzer. I get them from silent migraines. We have the same symptoms.
You're not alone and your feelings are 1000% valid. One point last year my anxiety was so bad I barely slept for weeks, no way of being logical to get out of it. Got put on so many new medications just to put me to sleep. Means a lot to hear you talk about stuff like this. ❤
hey I have had diagnosed panic attacks for over a decade and to clarify. anxiety can cause panic attacks ; but, they are not the same thing. CBD saved me from having 2-3 hour long convulsions but also small things like wrapping in a blanket and taking two breaths in the nose, one out the mouth are good methods to mitigate the length. hope it helps
I grow CBD and it's so useful!! I make tea with the leaves and trim! Makes me calm but not high! 😊 Highly recommend! High THC weed is like high alcohol %, just gets you more F'd up and disconnected
Aww man I had Lyme for years and it crossed my mind that it might be that the other day. I didn't have exhaustion but it infected my knee for a year and caused chronic swelling leading to major knee surgery. Best of luck ❤
Glad you found out what was up Dan.. makes me want to get tested for lymes disease now.. I live in a forested property and sometimes feel like you describe.. thanks for sharing bro. Appreciated and always look forward to your videos.. keep on doing what you love, just don't push yourself to much.👍👊
Hope all goes good dude, one thing thats amazing for getting body energy regulated and a lot more bennefits is eating a crude garlic when u wake up, works pretty good, and cannela is so good too as an antioxidant and general antiinflamatory for the body, search about the benefits of natural things, and let off things that are pretty bad like milk and sugars and that stuff, vibes men 💜🙌💪
😢 feel so bad for you my dude. I feel like talking about all of this is helping you and so many people. I've shared your video with my sister and few times now cause she has some of the same symptoms. Love you and keep your head up. Stay strong and remember alot of us need you to help our own mental health and your helping so many.
I'm convinced he's dehydrated all the time. To the point where it's damaged his body. Edit: also Dan was one of the first people to get OG covid 3-4 yeses ago could be long covid too. Totally guessing
Hell yes i have history of anxiety, lyme, LC, autoimmunity. My first symptoms were panic attacks and heart palpitations. I wish I had listened to people when suggesting nervous system regulation. Its a huge part of healing
I see different sources say different things about it, anything specific that helped you or that you know about helps? I know my nervous system needs regulating after it being messed up from benzodiazepines. Ever since I quit it’s been a mess of symptoms coming and going.
@@johan9388 I saw improvement when I became more aware of my thoughts, emotions and how they influence my symptoms. In the video Dan talks about thinking it was a mental disorder because during times of stress his symptoms would flare up. Theres a connection there, so you need to practice what makes you feel calm and safe. For me its cbd, magnesium, yawning, 4-6-8 breath and ear massages. CFS recovery on youtube has lots of great videos explaining how all this works
@ unfortunately it isn’t a situation where what works for one person ALWAYS works for another… that being said: there are many FREE videos here on YT. I encourage everyone to take a look and PRACTICE the recommended exercises. And please know that yes, some exercises you might feel an immediate change for the better, for most people nervous system regulation takes a long time. It is a lifelong practice, not a quick fix. Sukie Baxter and Irene Lyon are two Yters I like. Red light therapy has been extremely helpful for me. Eye and tongue exercises have also been VERY helpful in my case. Somatic Experiencing with Peter Levine is another good resource. Good luck. Hang in there, it can been two steps forward and one step backwards sometimes… healing and nervous system regulation aren’t always a linear process. Good luck and take care…
@@johan9388 Unfortunately it isn’t “one-size fits all,” in other words: what works for one person doesn’t ALWAYS work for the next person… that being said, there are MANY exercises and approaches which can and DO help. Search here on YT and experiment. Suki Baxter and Irene Lyon both have free and subscription programs that have helped me. Meditation, chanting even singing can help stimulate the vagus nerve and create a greater sense of wellbeing. I have found redlight therapy to be VERY VERY helpful. The eye and tongue exercises from Pain Free You here on YT have also been helpful for me. Angela Mccloud has a nice series of short videos on nervous system support here: th-cam.com/play/PLtbMmNmD6TJKZIjJpHTwIzF1poqz5VLy_.html&si=ssKbjWR0l_Rv9Jrf This type of healing isn’t always linear, meaning sometimes it’s two steps forward and one step backwards… you may feel some improvement and then a sudden change for the worse… hang in there, it’s worth approaching your health and wellbeing as a life long practice, rather “than one and done.” You don’t expect breakfast to nourish you for the whole day or for the rest of your life! It’s like eating and sleeping, there is a natural rhythm and learning to listen to and act on this inner intelligence is a large part of the process. Good luck one and all, and take care of yourselves… no one can no better what you need than you, so listen to yourself and give yourself the care you need. 🙌🏻🙏🏼
Really sorry to hear this Dan. Been a fan of your videos and skating for years. I know of two people that have had Lymes, one recovered and the other was wiped out big time, messed their school time up etc. I hope you get the support and info you need. Stay healthy and sending good vibes 👊
dude I just recently found your channel. You and the powell crew have created such a beautiful vibe…I haven’t skated in years and I went out for a roll today after binging like 10 of your videos. I currently live in WA state but* I grew up in the san fernando valley down in LA and it’s SO nostalgic seeing you guys skate all over that area, and elsewhere in socal. makes me home sick but in a good way, having a crew of friends to skate with during my teen years kept me on a positive path whereas otherwise I would likely have gone down a dark one. that culture shaped me, and you embody that positive force everytime you get out there. thank you so much for sharing these days with us, here on youtube. and regarding your health, I commend you for your open-ness and bravery. lots of dudes our age don’t even go to the doctor, talking about these issues is almost taboo. you’re setting the right example, I trust that the skills you have are well suited to tackling these issues going forward, keep your head up, keep surrounding yourself with the friends you’re so lucky to have, and I’ll keep living vicariously through your content. 👊
You want to talk about fatigue? Try having terminal cancer like me. Liver, lungs and bone cancer. Some days I'm okay. Not normal, but okay. Other days I can't hardly make it to the bathroom in time. Back in late January, 3 doctors gave me 6 to 12 months to live. I've done chemo and I would never wish that on anyone. Cancer spread during chemo. Now I just live day to day. Enjoy the good days and deal with the bad. I smoke weed for depression and that helps alot. I wish you the very best of luck dealing with or beating limes disease. Try to stay positive. For me, that is the hardest part. Not to end it with the pull of a trigger.
@@balljar7546 so sorry your dealing with any of this! Sending many thoughts and prayers your way! You're a true warrior for battling on like you have. A lady I see in one of the stores i work in on my sales route literally just threw the towel in and said she's done fighting and just going to spend the time she had left with her family. Mad me so sad to hear because she's an amazing person. But I'm not in her shoes so I can't even begin to understand her thought process with that.
Cut out lactose, sugar and carbs, wheat and vegetable oil, try cutting one of those for three days, then reintroduce to see how you react. I also have become slightly allergic to peanuts( gives indigestion and heart palpitations). Big pharma and big agra are joint investing in our failing health.
Carbs aren't that bad tho.. Some are better than others. I have overnight oats all the time and they keep me fueled and happy! Also yogurt makes the gut happy as long as your not lactose intolerant. Everyone's different tho 😊
Thanks for sharing Dan. Sorry you’re going through all this. I personally have long covid and there’s a few studies and a lot of cases of people who got covid and covid reignited Lyme. So it could be both. Not trying to diagnose especially since you are doing all the steps you can do and under good medical care.
Everything you said about panic attacks is 1000% true and the dissociation is wild I been suffering from them my whole life I once didn't leave my house except er by ambulance for 6 months smh
I wish I could donate some of my health to you man, but that's probably not realistic. Here's dinner instead. I appreciate you.
Cool Dude. Zoltan.
Love your channel Dan. Wanted to send you a couple bucks for whatever but maybe to help towards treatment. 38yr old skater from Maine living in Tahoe for 12 yrs. Btw, your ability to self reflect and your self awareness is really amazing, particularly fighting through anxiety disorder. I've been there A LOT myself, it's not easy to freak out and then reset and come out clearer and stronger. Love ya dude 👊🏼👊🏼
My schizo/bipolor symptoms have been getting worse recently and hearing you talk about your own physical/mental health issues made me feel less alone about it. Thank you so much, wishing you all the best with it!
Hey Dan. Sorry you’re dealing with this stuff. I relate to a lot of the symptoms you described although for a different reason/diagnosis.
You are such a rad dude and your community loves you. Take it easy and try to not put too much pressure on yourself. Take care dude.
I had lyme as a kid, it eventually evolved into ME/CFS. i'm 35 now and i'm mostly home and bed bound. I used to be extremely active but now i spend most most my days just resting. There are days where even chewing food takes too much energy to do. My heart goes out to you and wish you the best going forward.
That's rough man. Best of luck.
💚
I had Lyme when I was in my early 20's before there were a lot of studies, and doctors didn't have an understanding on how to treat it. It ruined 8 years of my life, the panic attacks, my nervous system was destroyed, spams, fevers.I felt like I was crazy and dying. I'm in my early 40's now, and that period of my life will forever haunt me. I learned a real lot though, and I can tell you that it will get better. Today we have studies, and doctors who have a deeper understanding. All the best Dan. I won't give you unsolicited health advice, though I do have some tips if you ever were seeking some from someone who has experience. The best tip though is to advocate for yourself, and if you are not getting anywhere move on as fast as you can. All the best man
Are you all better now?
@@fittyleben9680 I am, thank you for asking.
I’ve had LD since 92 and it kicked my ass mentally and physically. I still have heart issues but I’m used to it and listen to my body more than ever. Hang in there and kick ass.
I’m consensually soliciting the advice, please 🙏
I've also had lyme. It is encouraging to hear you say you are better now, but what treatment was it that made you feel better?
Thanks for sharing with us, Dan. Takes courage to be vulnerable like that, and I think a lot of us who suffer from some form of chronic illness can relate and are comforted by you taking the time to talk about what you're going through. Your mentality is extremely positive and it makes me want to be more positive as well. Love you, man.
Erictile dysfunction
Hahahaah I wish
@@DanCorriganbrooo whatttt
haha
@@DanCorrigan get a second opinion
If you don’t use it you lose it 🥛👴
Hey, don't get too down on that diagnosis, Dan. I've read a bunch of stuff on Lyme Disease, and it seems the prognosis for even later-diagnosed cases is positive. The recovery is longer, but the antibiotics course should work. Corrigans FTW! ( I'm a Canuck Corrigan ;) )
Dr sam Bailey, debunks Lyme disease, antibiotics are one of the worst things for a human, they just mess up your gut among other things
lymes is propaganda that comes out of the 'alternative' health food industry , which has since crossed over into mainstream medicine and literally translates to 'you're putting garbage into your body and you're toxic but we'll call it Lymes and now blame a tick so be afraid to walk into nature now" .
Really appreciate you for coming out and walking through what you've been going through - we're keeping you in our thoughts!
Hey man, I know it's hard to deal with but we're all here for you. Love you dude.
Big props to you for talking about your health issues. You're not alone, bro.
Your head seems to be in the right place, that's half the battle won right there.
So sorry to hear that dude. You're one of the most strategic skaters of all time who thinks about tricks like a puzzle. This is just a new part of the puzzle. Can't just throw tons of attempts at a trick anymore hoping to get lucky, you gotta try a handful, think about what you need to change while taking a break to let your heart chill, and then go at it again. Now that you know what the problem is I'm sure you can thrive.
🙏 for your health man. Sending some 💕
Was thinking Epstein-Bar
I feel you man. I've been struggling with panic attacks and SI this last year and a half, and what's been a massive help has been this channel. Just watching people doing something they love with their friends is so cathartically relaxing for me. Whenever I'm having a bad day and I think I'm going nuts, seeing a new video from you in my feed immediately helps sooth the pain.
Get better soon on your speedy recovery!🙏
We appreciate you being so open and letting us know. I’m a newer person too your channel only been about a few months but I love your content and I hope the absolute best for you.
Man, feeling for you. Hope you ascend it! The world is a better place with you around ❤
I pretty much never comment, but I just want to say that I'm with you Dan!!! (By with you i mean liking and watching your vids haha).
I've been watching pretty much since the beginning, and you changed my whole attitude to skating, and helped me learn to enjoy it a lot more than i have, (which in turn motivated me to skate more often ) which I am incredibly thankful for!
The health thing really sucks, and I can't even begin to imagine how much. But I am just super excited to see you rolling around again, even if not as often or intense as before! And I am sure that whatever the case, you'll still be able to enjoy doing it! (Though i hope and wish that the health stuff is not going to be as serious as it may)
Love and wish you the best, Dan!
damn. I'm glad it's not lupus or worse. Lyme disease is as bad as it gets for long term disability. Thank you for being so brave and sharing. Good luck in Tampa. The footage you get will be top tier anyway. Cuz that's the kind of pro you are.
Thanks for your candid honesty in your conditions. You are surely helping someone else down the line dealing with similar circumstances.
So brave of you to out yourself out there and talk about your health issues. I hope it helps as part of your journey to better physical and mental health. Praying for a full recovery.
Brave? Idk about that
As a fellow Dan, fellow dude, and just fellow human being I am so proud of you for talking about your mental health publicly like this! I just had a daughter 3 months ago and with fatherhood has come some anxiety that I've never felt before. It's hard sometimes to talk to friends about it, let alone 100k strangers on the internet! Props to you my guy! (Btw my daughter loves when I put your videos or Nyjah on TV for bottle time. Both calm her right down!)
Lymes is no joke man, but we're all behind you, there's no one here that would blame you a bit if things slow! Rest and heal the best you can! Glad you have answers and genuinely stoked to watch your journey and follow you through this!
Love you dude. Your channel got me through a really hard time in 2021 when I was going through some health issues. All better now, and I hope to hear the same from you soon dude. Stay positive.
Love your channel Dan. Hope you’re able to make a full recovery. Thoughts & Prayers 🙏🏼
Sending you positive energies for your recovery, you are going to be 100% soon man, trust!!!
Lyme disease came to mind cause of the fog and fatigue.
Get better my man!
Edit: just finished. I have a friend with Lyme disease and it's no joke. Best of luck with getting treatment
Man I’m glad that Lyme disease doesn’t exist in Australia. I’ve removed half a dozen or so ticks from myself after camping trips throughout my life.
Also glad I never caught that mammalian meat allergy that some of em carry. I like seafood and stuff but life would be pretty bleak without steak lol
but it's the crap he's putting into his body that's the real culprit.
Hey I’m an old skater rat surfer who loves your videos. I’m gonna start praying for you to return to complete health and be healed to your original awesomeness. I am a boardsporter with city, state & national wins in skating, snowboarding and surfing. You can never under estimate the power & impact of having people sending you good vibes!
Good luck on your health and keep up all the great vids.
God Bless 🛹🏂🏄🏽♂️🇺🇸🙏✝️
Had an idea it was Lyme. I’m in Pa. I got it last summer. Never saw the tick. Had a rash, but not the bulls eye.
Went to the ER and they misdiagnosed it, gave me the wrong antibiotics. Went to the Dr. he found it was Lyme. Took doxycycline. That worked a lot better.
I still get some of the brain fog. Drinking electrolytes seems to help. I ride 25 miles or more on my bike almost every day, so eventually you can still push yourself hard.
Lyme was horrible the first month. Didn’t eat, fever, way worse than Covid.
Deer ticks are almost impossible to see, they're so small.
Literally the size of a printed period in a book.
@@vorpalbladeswtf
One of my favorite artists Ren has Lyme. Check out his story, his finding out what was wrong, and his road to recovery on youtube. It's truly inspiring! All the best Dan!
Evening shirt 💪 Supporting the young hustlers. Hope everything gets better. Stay healthy with food and water and rest.
This video was very emotional for me. I was a pro skater in my late teens/early twenties (early 2000s), but I experienced a series of debilitating health issues that ended my skating career forever. I've now found a new path in life that fills my heart with utter joy, but losing my ability to skate wreaked havoc on my life and mental health throughout my 20s. I recently started watching your channel as a way to connect with the skating community again, and now to hear you're going through something even vaguely similar really hits close to home. I wish you all the best and I thank you so much for talking about mental health in skateboarding.
Glad to hear you finally got some answers. Now you can move forward with a plan!
Hope you get better Dan 🙏🏻 have faith keep a positive mindset
I had panic attacks for years. I have a multiple sclerosis diagnosed in 2015. It could be associated with a neurologic disease. What all of these autoimmune diseases have in common is a need for vitamin D and magnesium. Get good quality supplements of those and take it regularly. It really helps long term
So sorry to hear brother. I'm glad you got a diagnosis. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your story though. It's super important for others to hear cuz it gives them something to check. Best of vibes for improving and getting stronger! 🙏❤️
Im glad that you have got some answers, even if it’s difficult news. There are a lot of people who appreciate you, Dan. Take good care of yourself.
Love you, dude. Sending you all the vibes and prayers I can.
sorry you’re dealing with this. We all love you. thank you for sharing.
Hey dawg, that sucks 😢 big hugs and heaps of encouragement. Great to finally get a diagnosis but.. take it queasy and you will be back on too soon 🎉
I feel ya, lung condition here and only getting worse, and gets worse each time I get the vid (I think that's what's gonna get me in the end). No idea how Lime Desease effects you but know a thing or two about exaustion and it's a bummer for sure. Makes you feel happy for what you have and what you can still do and very much that the time is now, do things now and not wait. Anyhow it's the things that you can do that make you not the things you can't. keep posting these videos keep finding things to be happy about and all the best. Not plugging this guy at all but have a look and Ren on youtube and a song called "Hi Ren" by Ren. He has Limes Desease and is getting treatment that seems to be going well, he is very truthfull about his troubles as well...Be safe.
Damn man, sorry. Good luck on your recovery journey. I wish you the best.
Around 2016 i started to make real changes in my diet and cleaned up my living ; around 2022 i had a serious set back that really made me minimize my diet to necessity. You are your best advocate at your own dinner table and in your own kitchen. I went protein and healthy fats and low carb , no sugar , no grill , no smoke. I am not a doctor. love your video's
Can you list your daily regimen and routine and whatever you do to be healthy and the changes that you made and how much better that you are now and stuff like that tbh as well tho too?? Like exactly what you pretty much eat and drink everyday.....and also any of any supplements and any vitamins and then anything else that you do everyday too.
Got you in my thoughts. You’re the best, Dan.
Big props for being straight forward and truthful with everything happening in your world
Sorry to hear, Dan. Be aware, that testing for Lyme is extremely controversial tho. I know it's great to have something on paper, but yea, it might actually be long covid or ME/cfs, which is what I've had for the last 22 years. I'm one of those you talked about who completely had their lives ruined by it.. only got worse and worse since then for me. Hope you'll have more luck and figure out how to deal with it or even improve.
All the best!
You've had long covid for 22 years? Please explain how that is possible when it was only a worldwide discovery about 4 1/2 years ago.
@MichaelKeithton There's a thing called ME/cfs / chronic fatigue syndrome / post viral fatigue syndrome / whatever you want to call it. You can get that from several viral infections like Mono, which is caused by the Epstein Barr virus as one example. They made this absolute bitch move calling it long Covid / post Covid for the first 6 months after you first got it and only after diagnose you with ME/cfs... As you can't test for any of those conditions, many doctors won't take you serious and try telling you it's all in your head, so many end up getting a Lyme diagnosis instead, as tests for that have an extremely low accuracy rate, but people just seem to take that over not having any positive testing at all, even if it's a false positive
Just look at how many famous people claimed to have Lyme the last couple years, but somehow none of them remember having had a tick bite and those extremely noticeable round rashes you'd get after an infection, just like Dan described it.. it's a bit odd, isn't it?
@@MichaelKeithton dude.. I just wrote a pretty long answer to your question, did TH-cam remove that one? All I see is my shorter second reply about lyme now..
Do a parasite cleanse! Look into parasites and how they affect our minds and bodies.
I know its gonna sound cheesy, but my gram just died in an accidental house fire. Skateboarding myself, and watching you and Andy and the boys has been so therapeutic. I forced myself down my local 12 foot roll-in (Lock Haven, Pennsylvania Skatepark) and it felt so god damn good. I told myself she passed in such a difficult way if I get hurt, its still nothin compared to what she endured. I already suffer from acute PTSD and bipolar disorder so my mind has been a wasteland recently. Pushing myself into scarier things is helping me organize and live with the chaos. Regardless, you aren't alone in your mental and physical struggles. From one skater to another, ride on🤙
Sorry to hear man, hopefully you can recover from it.
Get well soon !
I hope that you'll recover and be able to skate to your full capacity as soon as possible.
Your videos helped me through some rough times and I want to thank you for that.
Take care
Commenting on the panic attack portion of the video: spot on. My partner has had and continues to have panic-anxiety due to PTSD/several trauma. I was always one of those people who was like 'bullshit, mind over matter, cmon you got this, push through'... until I had my first actual panic attack. My partner, bless their soul, guided me through that terrible, life-changing experience with love and grace. I spent the next three hours apologizing to my partner for minimizing their attacks due to my own ignorance and i'll never make that mistake with ANY ailment again.
the universe finds a way to humble us 🙏
deadass found ur channel like an hour ago but bro so far this video is giving me that weird "glad that i'm not alone" feeling, you know? i've had fibromyalgia and ocd and panic shit for most my life and idk the like 5 videos of urs ive watched so far ur at a level i didnt even realise was possible for someone like me. ty homie
Sending healing vibes to one af my fav skaters!
Thanks for the health update man, I really appreciate it. Take it easy for sure and you should by no means feel pressured to skate or upload if you're pushing your limits. I wish you the best Dan
Shit bro I'm sorry. I hope you can make a strong recovery.
Good luck, brave to share all of this, you will conquer it. All the best, you are an inspiration in multiple ways! 🙏
So sorry to hear, but I guess it's good to finally know what you have. I actually thought Lime disease was quite possible, I live in Idaho, which we (jokingly) refer to as "the tick fever state" Also I have recently been watching a lot of Ren videos. Not sure if you're familiar with him, but he went through about 10 years of trying to figure out what was ailing him, and finally realized it was Lime. His story is crazy, basically bed ridden for years, doctors told him it was all in his head. Eventually experienced complete psychosis. (before the diagnosis, he's doing very well now) Good luck to you, you got this.
Sorry to hear this mate, I hope any treatment forthcoming helps you. There is a UK music artist called Ren, who has limes disease and has been suffering, for a long time, but it has been a gift and a curse for him, definitely worth checking him out and maybe even reaching out to him, as he has been on a very long journey figuring things out. He is really down with you tubers and a super kind person...I know he can help you!
when you find yourself dying, but you survive everytime. the way through is to embrace those feelings. let them in. you might find something cool within.
dont think.... feeeeeeeel
The technique that helped me was imagining the attack as a wave. And you are a surfer and you need to jump on it and surf it! Let it go, like on a rollercoaster. It works! And it gets easier over time
This mindset helped me through panic attacks tbh
Thanks for sharing and spreading awareness I had completely forgotten about lyme disease I never knew it was that serious either
Probably going to Venice skatepark caused the symptoms.
It is a terrible thing, definitely
This a lame way to insult LA in a video about someone sharing that they are sick? Grow up.
It's a joke, dude. Dan has a long history of irrational hate for the Venice skatepark.
@@benvsrealitygot it. Elsewhere I just see those kind of comments for no reason and it just gets old
@@klaymatic3751 Chill out old man. Dan insults Venice Park way more than me
Wishing you the best bro, you’re a legend and I know you’ll succeed regardless of what you’re doing 🫡
Im glad you are feeling better. Getting bit by a tick is surprising. Take care of yourself with good food and water and get off their medicines ASAP. You can now relax your body isn't as big of a mess as you think
He was back East a few months ago.
Lyme disease is all over out here.
Not taking the full course of antibiotics is not advisable.
You never get rid of Lyme, it only goes into remission.
You've been a big inspiration for me, just watching your videos; I've seen the course your life has taken, through youtube, over the past couple of years and its been this linear progression which is so positive to witness. Now this health situation you've been dealing with has the quality of almost cosmic comedy, like fate has taken the string of your life and plucked it, just to see how the vibrations will play out. It certainly doesn't seem fair. But hopefully the same perseverance and temerity you've used to fight through any hardships you've already faced will serve you here. Skate when you can, rest when you have to, and make videos as long as it makes sense for you. And thanks for your work. Hope you beat this.
Lyme disease is what I've been thinking the past couple times I've heard you talk about it. Im commenting this at the 1:30 mark.
14 min, I wish I had commented this to you earlier.
You should look up Ren, he is a UK musician that had it, they misdiagnosed him for years which lead to a lot of bad things. He talks alot about it and has tried really hard to bring more knowledge to the world about the disease and treatments, ect.
Good luck man. For what it's worth, I had long "vid" for a while, and was tested for lymes (negative). I had pretty much the same symptoms. Racing heart, anxiety, fatigue, derealization, auditory hallucinations, etc. I was basically stuck in fight or flight 24/7. Having a previous panic disorder or health anxiety is definitely a factor in all of it. Part of recovering is learning to trust that your body will be okay. Fear of the disease itself kept the symptoms going on longer for me. The symptom/anxiety feedback loop. Hopefully this is somewhat helpful. This just sounds so much like what I went through and all of the "mystery illnesses" I've gone through. The loop of anxiety, getting weird feelings in my heart, getting more anxious because those feelings, having my heart feel worse because I'm even more anxious, etc. Not saying this is for sure what's going on with you. Just something to be aware of. Most of all, even if things take a turn for the worse, don't lose hope. There were many times I thought I was going to ☠ or that I would never get better. Best of luck.
the mustache is iconic at this point
Lyme disease is so wild but medicine can do so much these days. Keep fighting and remember that your state of mind and attitude along the way will effect a LOT. Stay positive brother. You got this
lyme sucks man, I'm sorry to hear. on the antibiotics.. you should only take antibiotics for bacterial infections. antibiotics destroy the gut biome and that's why you are having stomach issues following taking it. try adding kombucha or yoghurt AFTER you finish the full cycle of taking them if you plan on taking it again. use caution and ask your doctor if it is even needed because from what you described it does not sound like it.
Doctors always prescribe antibiotics.. That's all they know how to do. My sis is a vet and every "solution" is antibiotics. If your dealing with mental struggles, antibiotics will only make them worse. Gut health is everything. It's shocking how much it affects your mood and body
So sorry to hear!!
I’ve got friends with lymes- I wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy!
I’m crossing all my fingers and toes for you dude ❤
Yo! I was watching one of your videos talking about being able to finally get back on your board and thought, man that kinda sounds like what REN was/ is going through… he went years without a proper diagnosis. I thought I wasn’t qualified enough to give any advice on health care. I know that it’s probably a relief finally having an answer. I broke a vertebra and it went misdiagnosed for a couple years. I refractured it over and over, either by work or physical therapy and chiropractor “adjusting” me. The surgeon said that the one vertebra could be spun freely around my spinal cord. When I finally had an X-ray and got the “hey, so it turns out there was something wrong with your back after all “ from the same military doctor that misdiagnosed me over and over.. I felt relieved after the surgeon told my wife and I that I shouldn’t have been able to walk in for that first surgery, and I had the freshly carved up back I wanted to choke that military doctor and show everyone I knew that I wasn’t just faking or something. I sent a picture of my back with a drain tube coming out of it and the wounds where they took out a rib for the donor bone and the one going down my spine where they put the bone and titanium rod and screws to my supervisor. Hospital gown wide open…my whole ars in view. I felt vindicated I guess. Like finally I had answers and that I wasn’t making it all up in my head somehow. Sadly it still ended up costing me my career. I was told the surgery would make it so I could reach my 20 year mark at the least. My only goal was to reach retirement from active duty(20+ years). I was medically retired at 10 years to the day. I’ve been in constant pain for over a decade now… a few surgeries and a truckload full of medications and lots of time spent praying I could will myself to fall asleep so I could sleep through the pain on rougher days. I hope you have a much better go at it. I wish you nothing but the absolute best.
You need to have a look at Welsh 🏴 singer - songwriter "Ren" he has it also and had to travel to Canada for treatment.And for years didnt know he had it but described all the Psychosis and other symptoms you described,he's wrote and sang some hard hitting songs about his struggles with it,worth checking out Dan.Get well soon bud.🙏
you opening up will help others fo shure!!!❤take care we need you in full shape and energy🤗
The only thing that works with panic for me, its to drink a gallon of water + a glass of water with alka seltzer. I get them from silent migraines. We have the same symptoms.
You're not alone and your feelings are 1000% valid. One point last year my anxiety was so bad I barely slept for weeks, no way of being logical to get out of it. Got put on so many new medications just to put me to sleep. Means a lot to hear you talk about stuff like this. ❤
hey I have had diagnosed panic attacks for over a decade and to clarify. anxiety can cause panic attacks ; but, they are not the same thing. CBD saved me from having 2-3 hour long convulsions but also small things like wrapping in a blanket and taking two breaths in the nose, one out the mouth are good methods to mitigate the length. hope it helps
They are cousins. Over 15 years for me, but it is much better now.
I grow CBD and it's so useful!! I make tea with the leaves and trim! Makes me calm but not high! 😊 Highly recommend! High THC weed is like high alcohol %, just gets you more F'd up and disconnected
Aww man I had Lyme for years and it crossed my mind that it might be that the other day. I didn't have exhaustion but it infected my knee for a year and caused chronic swelling leading to major knee surgery. Best of luck ❤
Bro thinks hes to cool for lemon disease and go's straight to Lyme what a show off
Glad you found out what was up Dan.. makes me want to get tested for lymes disease now.. I live in a forested property and sometimes feel like you describe.. thanks for sharing bro. Appreciated and always look forward to your videos.. keep on doing what you love, just don't push yourself to much.👍👊
Take this as a reason to become one of those crazy diet and health nuts.
DUDE SAME ISSUE HERE !! GLAD YOU MADE IT !! CHECKED AND SHARED IT !! YOUR TAMPA RUN, FLAME!!
Hope all goes good dude, one thing thats amazing for getting body energy regulated and a lot more bennefits is eating a crude garlic when u wake up, works pretty good, and cannela is so good too as an antioxidant and general antiinflamatory for the body, search about the benefits of natural things, and let off things that are pretty bad like milk and sugars and that stuff, vibes men 💜🙌💪
Garlic and ginger are my fav! Make you feel great! Cumin and cinnamon are also good for the gut! 😊
Ouuh yes ginger! Must get some soon, thanks 😊✌️
😢 feel so bad for you my dude. I feel like talking about all of this is helping you and so many people. I've shared your video with my sister and few times now cause she has some of the same symptoms. Love you and keep your head up. Stay strong and remember alot of us need you to help our own mental health and your helping so many.
Fatigue caused by video editing, too much caffeine, not enough clean water, poor food habits. I don't know ha ha
Stuff like that causes a lot of issues for people... Healthy habits may not save you, but they will certainly improve your life...
Living in California caused it
I'm convinced he's dehydrated all the time. To the point where it's damaged his body.
Edit: also Dan was one of the first people to get OG covid 3-4 yeses ago could be long covid too. Totally guessing
@@Labergemusic very easy to dehydrate in the hot sun and skating.
@@karmahomestead especially in california lol
I think its super important for people to be open and vulnerable about discussing these kinds of experiences, thank you for sharing
yeah, panic attacks can go to hell
lots of love and good vibes bro ...Definitely reach out to others. Ren can help, check that guy out.
Nervous system regulation: everybody check into it
Hell yes i have history of anxiety, lyme, LC, autoimmunity. My first symptoms were panic attacks and heart palpitations. I wish I had listened to people when suggesting nervous system regulation. Its a huge part of healing
I see different sources say different things about it, anything specific that helped you or that you know about helps? I know my nervous system needs regulating after it being messed up from benzodiazepines. Ever since I quit it’s been a mess of symptoms coming and going.
@@johan9388 I saw improvement when I became more aware of my thoughts, emotions and how they influence my symptoms. In the video Dan talks about thinking it was a mental disorder because during times of stress his symptoms would flare up. Theres a connection there, so you need to practice what makes you feel calm and safe. For me its cbd, magnesium, yawning, 4-6-8 breath and ear massages. CFS recovery on youtube has lots of great videos explaining how all this works
@ unfortunately it isn’t a situation where what works for one person ALWAYS works for another… that being said: there are many FREE videos here on YT. I encourage everyone to take a look and PRACTICE the recommended exercises. And please know that yes, some exercises you might feel an immediate change for the better, for most people nervous system regulation takes a long time. It is a lifelong practice, not a quick fix.
Sukie Baxter and Irene Lyon are two Yters I like. Red light therapy has been extremely helpful for me. Eye and tongue exercises have also been VERY helpful in my case. Somatic Experiencing with Peter Levine is another good resource.
Good luck. Hang in there, it can been two steps forward and one step backwards sometimes… healing and nervous system regulation aren’t always a linear process. Good luck and take care…
@@johan9388 Unfortunately it isn’t “one-size fits all,” in other words: what works for one person doesn’t ALWAYS work for the next person… that being said, there are MANY exercises and approaches which can and DO help. Search here on YT and experiment. Suki Baxter and Irene Lyon both have free and subscription programs that have helped me. Meditation, chanting even singing can help stimulate the vagus nerve and create a greater sense of wellbeing.
I have found redlight therapy to be VERY VERY helpful.
The eye and tongue exercises from Pain Free You here on YT have also been helpful for me.
Angela Mccloud has a nice series of short videos on nervous system support here: th-cam.com/play/PLtbMmNmD6TJKZIjJpHTwIzF1poqz5VLy_.html&si=ssKbjWR0l_Rv9Jrf
This type of healing isn’t always linear, meaning sometimes it’s two steps forward and one step backwards… you may feel some improvement and then a sudden change for the worse… hang in there, it’s worth approaching your health and wellbeing as a life long practice, rather “than one and done.” You don’t expect breakfast to nourish you for the whole day or for the rest of your life! It’s like eating and sleeping, there is a natural rhythm and learning to listen to and act on this inner intelligence is a large part of the process.
Good luck one and all, and take care of yourselves… no one can no better what you need than you, so listen to yourself and give yourself the care you need. 🙌🏻🙏🏼
ur my hero bro! ur strength is amazing!! g shit! god bless and sending you healing vibes!!!
I 1000% think 19 caused a lot of anxiety disorders to come to fruition. Regardless of people getting it or not.
Facts. I've seen the mental and physical health of most people go down hill after that time. It's having lasting effects.
i love you dan, i hope everything turns out ok :( your videos are a really big part of my life! im here every damn day!
You might have dysfunctional mitochondria, can be caused by poor sleep, habits, and poor eating habits.
Really sorry to hear this Dan. Been a fan of your videos and skating for years. I know of two people that have had Lymes, one recovered and the other was wiped out big time, messed their school time up etc. I hope you get the support and info you need. Stay healthy and sending good vibes 👊
dude I just recently found your channel. You and the powell crew have created such a beautiful vibe…I haven’t skated in years and I went out for a roll today after binging like 10 of your videos. I currently live in WA state but* I grew up in the san fernando valley down in LA and it’s SO nostalgic seeing you guys skate all over that area, and elsewhere in socal. makes me home sick but in a good way, having a crew of friends to skate with during my teen years kept me on a positive path whereas otherwise I would likely have gone down a dark one. that culture shaped me, and you embody that positive force everytime you get out there. thank you so much for sharing these days with us, here on youtube.
and regarding your health, I commend you for your open-ness and bravery. lots of dudes our age don’t even go to the doctor, talking about these issues is almost taboo. you’re setting the right example, I trust that the skills you have are well suited to tackling these issues going forward, keep your head up, keep surrounding yourself with the friends you’re so lucky to have, and I’ll keep living vicariously through your content. 👊
Thank you for updating us with your health. I hope it's the better of the situation. I'm pulling for you!
You want to talk about fatigue? Try having terminal cancer like me. Liver, lungs and bone cancer. Some days I'm okay. Not normal, but okay. Other days I can't hardly make it to the bathroom in time. Back in late January, 3 doctors gave me 6 to 12 months to live. I've done chemo and I would never wish that on anyone. Cancer spread during chemo. Now I just live day to day. Enjoy the good days and deal with the bad. I smoke weed for depression and that helps alot. I wish you the very best of luck dealing with or beating limes disease. Try to stay positive. For me, that is the hardest part. Not to end it with the pull of a trigger.
hope your good dude but its not a competition
❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@balljar7546 so sorry your dealing with any of this! Sending many thoughts and prayers your way! You're a true warrior for battling on like you have. A lady I see in one of the stores i work in on my sales route literally just threw the towel in and said she's done fighting and just going to spend the time she had left with her family. Mad me so sad to hear because she's an amazing person. But I'm not in her shoes so I can't even begin to understand her thought process with that.
I wish you peace, brother.
Ummmmmm.................🫤
Dang Dan, I feel for you. My thoughts and best wishes are with you bud. Hang in there!
Parasites
For lymes disease:
japanese knotweed
Cats claw
Cryptolepis
Im glad you finally have an answer, gutted its not and easy one. I hope the knowing what it is brings some relief. Rooting for you dude
Cut out lactose, sugar and carbs, wheat and vegetable oil, try cutting one of those for three days, then reintroduce to see how you react. I also have become slightly allergic to peanuts( gives indigestion and heart palpitations). Big pharma and big agra are joint investing in our failing health.
Carbs aren't that bad tho.. Some are better than others. I have overnight oats all the time and they keep me fueled and happy! Also yogurt makes the gut happy as long as your not lactose intolerant. Everyone's different tho 😊
@user-ne9sd4ow1o low glycemic index carbs like broccoli are good 👍
Thanks for sharing Dan. Sorry you’re going through all this. I personally have long covid and there’s a few studies and a lot of cases of people who got covid and covid reignited Lyme. So it could be both. Not trying to diagnose especially since you are doing all the steps you can do and under good medical care.
Everything you said about panic attacks is 1000% true and the dissociation is wild I been suffering from them my whole life I once didn't leave my house except er by ambulance for 6 months smh
Yeah, it's like a shadow of complete malevolence comes over you. I don't even know if it's irrational. Existential dread.
