@@rshalh2146 Hi Rasheed -- the mentorship team has informed me several times that you haven't been taking the program seriously at all. You have yet to go through the welcome section, and you've booked two 1 on 1s with the mentors and missed both calls with no warning. You need to take the program more seriously and utilize the access you have with the mentors instead of commenting on my channel. If we find you're not engaged in the program -- we will have to reconsider your enrollment. Heather is reaching out to you -- again. Please respond.
Dude, I went the same path you did, there's such a fine balance to understand that yes, your gut plays a huge roll in your mood, but not obsessing over fixing your gut. But just taking care of your body the way you should anyway. Your channel saved me man, thank you!
Yes, that's me! I started this nightmare in 2021 and recently had a really bad case of heartburn, which brought back all the horrible symptoms of anxiety! Now I feel like I'm going crasy because I struggle with health anxiety!😢
Anxiety and stress can mess up the peristalsis (and migrating motor complex) action of the intestines, not just giving you IBS but also forcing bacteria up into the small intestine (SIBO). SIBO and IBS will create anxiety. Gas pressure and such can stimulate the vagus nerve and mess up your day with panic attacks, faster heart rate, and palpitations.
Yes thats true look for hiatal hernia syndrome, best to deal with this is really eat healthy diet, brain retraining, light/moderate exercise, have a good routine like gratitude meditation etc, don't focus on the symptoms.
Shaan-I appreciate all of your videos, my anxiety cycle started with my gut, I can relate to your story so well. I will keep watching and hope to sign up with your mentorship soon 😊
For me my biggest issue are the OCD intrusive thoughts, and now I am in times of high stress they are more intense. I need help from people like Shaan who can truly understand me
Thank u Shaan for sharing this...My panic attack came along with belching and from that day I was suffering from gerd till today...this video means alot
I’m just watching this video as I’ve been suffering from social anxiety and gut issues since a very young age. Just hear you see Vertigo, I happen to have had one recently. I’ve never had it before.
You just told my story. I have gone back and forth for years, trying keto, trying carnivore. I’d go from 100% convinced that diet was the cure. I’d read comments from others saying it completely cured their anxiety. Then I would read other comments that it did nothing. Same thing with medication and things like CBT. I go from being all on board to skeptical. Talk about an emotional roller coaster when you are already on the biggest ride from the anxiety. I’ve been down so many rabbit holes, just trying to figure out what was the cure. I think bc anxiety is so physical you believe that it has to be something physically wrong. I’m still trying to get to the other side but I’m glad you made this video bc I was just thinking maybe it was time to try keto or carnivore again. I think I will stick with just trying to eat healthy while using more of the methods to hand Dr Claire Weekes talk about. Acupuncture and buteyko breathing are some other rabbit holes I’ve gone done. What’s weird is that I have been convinced by all of them that they are the cure. I’m actually currently waiting for a breathing device I ordered on Amazon🤦♀️.

simple tips from me dealing w anxiety for around 5yr now. 1. no caffeine 2. optimize sleep; no blue light, expose urself to sun in the morning, eat 3-4hr before bed, black room, and high dose magnesium glycinate + glycine to relax ur nervous system. 3. Optimize hormones / thyroid. 4. correct nutritional deficiencies; magnesium, D3 5. Fermented foods to aid a poor gut biome: gut bacteria produce feel good hormones like serotonion, dopamine and GABA. 6. Nose breathing allways; belly breathe. 7. Diet: NO INNFLAMATORY FOODS. so no wheat, grains, gluten, conventional dairy, artificial sweetners like aspartame/sucralose.
No problem with the diet and other methods to help yourself. All these things are just the piece of the puzzle. Look on hiatal hernia syndrome/Gastrocardia syndrome/Roemheld syndrome and see how digestive issues cause anxiety.
@@homeofchampions3810 I am currently trying to eat certain foods that I have read help with certain things that deal with anxiety. I do think it’s a piece of the puzzle but not the cause of the anxiety.
Probiotics are great for helping anxiety. I stopped taking them many years ago and realized how great they made me feel in general and my anxiety was controlled. I suggest to start low like at 10 billion and work up to 25 billion.
I completely agree with the gut and brain connection and I want more people to talk about this. I’ve been struggling with the worst panic attacks and anxiety in my entire life these last 2-3 years (I’m 34 years old). I always had mild anxiety all my life, I grew up a sensitive kid and was always shy and was nervous in social occasions and standing on stage, etc., but that is somewhat normal for lots of people. But, dang, now and these past 2-3 years I’m deathly afraid of completely random situations that involve people looking at me, I am all of the sudden scared to ride chairlifts (I live in a ski town and now I refuse to ride a chairlift without a bar because I fear having a panic attack and falling off), I’m frightened going to the doctor’s office (the dentist even, I literally feel like I’m going to die going to these places), I’m afraid of new job opportunities and interviews/interviewers, I’m panicky seeing old friends that I haven’t seen in forever, the random list of fears goes on. It’s been the weirdest and hardest time of my life dealing with panic and anxiety (I never had a panic attack in my life before these last few years). Anyway, to wrap up my story - I tested positive for H. Pylori in February 2023 with biopsies showing moderate gastritis and esophagitis. My stomach has basically been inflamed for years and I truly think this has largely contributed to my abrupt panic attacks and anxiety. I’m still healing my gut, I still have symptoms of gastritis (it takes years to heal), but I feel like this was what I was needing to take care of. I think everyone who is experiencing a whole different level of panic and anxiety needs to get their gut checked out. H. Pylori is basically found in 50% of the world’s population, and it can wreak havoc in your stomach (and change your mental well being) if you aren’t aware of it. I’m on the road to recovery now with diet changes (mainly to keep heal my gastritis).
I’m on the road of overcoming anxiety! Now I’m just dealing with the emotional aftermath and the flashbacks of what I just experienced during the past year and a half. I’ve done acupuncture, Ayurveda, protein, balance foods, eat according to my metabolism as a lifestyle thing but not for the anxiety part. I avoid fake processed foods. I take Ashwagandha cause helps with hormones but the anxiety and panic: only what this channel says.
DPDR was never an issue for me, I noticed it… but the other symptoms were way worse… I had these brain zaps that make me feel like my head is pressed up against a box fan, tremors, numbness and tingling from my cheek down to my arm, spots in my vision… my doctor is great and I got an MRI and CT that week… totally fine… Then there was the normal stuff like fatigue, insomnia (waking up every 2-3 hours or just only sleeping 3 hours from like 1:30 to 4:30), dizziness, feeling cold, muscle pains and gut issues… My friends… I struggled for 4 years… I had vestibular necrosis and then about 2 years later a cancer scare that was hand waved away until I saw a specialist… I was on high, high alert and my panic attacks had me locked in the bathroom away from my family freaking out for hours, not just a couple but like 3-4 on average… sometimes I feel like I should make a vid series, show my hospital reports, because I hear heart palpitations and hyperventilation and I’m like… that’s life, I don’t even consider those symptoms… this is the 4th year and everything is coming together, I’m getting better at balancing being alert and keeping anxiety alive… Basically, I’m just saying anxiety can really mess with you, but if you are getting better, focus on the better and don’t back track… you are the only one keeping anxiety alive… it is very hard, distraction is key, and practice makes perfect, soon an intrusive thought will come in, you can label it, and turn your focus away with relative ease… I had very little help, it was TH-cam, lots of articles on Google (nothing on symptoms, just how to deal with anxiety) and (this kind of diverts from Shaans methods a little) living a very healthy life built on the 4 pillars of health… nutrition (easy for me), Exercise (easy for me), relaxation and sleep (hard for me)… but it’s possible… and they all kind of fit together… Much love and good luck to you all… And Shaan… keep helping the people my friend, you are admired and respected
Anxiety journey started last summer I didn’t know it was a panic attack and got stuck in the cycle I been educating myself on anxiety understanding why my body is dealing with physical symptoms which has help me but now my physical symptoms are getting more intense my nerves symptoms is getting more sensitive this last week and today I been in the state of anxiety where I’m dealing with these symptoms throughout the whole day I do get breaks from it here and there but it’s constantly there. When I’m at work it’s so hard to get through the 10 hours and when I go to the gym I feel anxious scared but I still workout. Idk why I’m like this when I already been exposing myself for months I been eating healthy drinking a lot of water and sleeping but still feeling terrible physical symptoms. Been to the doctors 6 times did my blood work they told me everything is fine but I never seen a specialist cause the doctor told me they will say it’s just anxiety so he is saving me some time going through that rabbit hole. I do believe I will recover from anxiety I’m doing my best everyday some days will be hard back to back for however long but I know it will pass I will get better
Can you tell me how to recover from it?I have been suffering the same from 6 months till now.and I have sleeping problems like insomnia too,plzz reach out me if you find a solution.
@marcus2224 get checked out first and make sure that there's nothing physically wrong. Then, consider seeing a good therapist. Then, comes the hard part: you have to retrain your nervous system to not fear the symptoms that you're feeling. These steps will get you started on the road to recovery.
Remember - focus on your response to the symptoms. Don't fear them, don't get scared of them, just accept them and divert your attention and focus onto other things consistently. My journey started 2 months ago, some days are horrendous, some are fine, but its slowly lifting and fading away as I continue responding correctly. We will both make it out of this, don't worry.
@@spikeSpiegel114 yes bro thank you so much we will recover fully! we have the knowledge thanks to Shaan and others it’s all about educating yourself on why anxiety is causing the symptoms fight or flight nervous system sensitized
Man ive been having anxiety for 3 years. First year was back to back panic attacks every day. Literally lost 40lbs and thinking I'm going to die. First panic attack i was for sure thinking I'm dying and was even ok with it at that moment since it seemed like its happening. Eneded up passing out and fast forward medication has really helped and now my mindset has been strong so i rarely get anxiety. Sometimes it creeps up on or gives me symptoms but i just relax and breathe. The Quran relaxes me and being kind to my parents and wife makes me happy that if anything does happen i lived a life with love and that god has his plan. Death will just return men back to my lord. Be strong guys, it's hard, very hard. But it only strengthens you. The first time you overcome with your heart and mind. The door for recovery is now on the right track.
Have you had your hormones checked? Did you ever take testosterone then stop? When you stop it can lower your natural testosterone causing immense anxiety and panic attacks ✨
Man i over came so many symptoms of anxiety but i have this issue with my stomach, it like blows up so big and i feel like i can’t breathe. This has been the one i cant seem to overcome. I’ve been checked by the Drs they say im okay just eat better. But i swear i can’t breathe when it blows up. I look pregnant, its so frustrating. Doesn’t matter what i eat , it just loves to blow up .
@leeannarodriguez3912, your the first person I have known who has said that they feel like they cannot breath, l too have that feeling I have so much gas when my stomach is playing up that I feel that it is around my lungs and I can't breath. I have been dealing with this since my early thirties now in my late seventies. Doctor's when I was younger would dismiss it as over breathing, just would not take it seriously. I have been through a lot of what others have done, found out eventually did have the Hali bacteria, was treated but through the procedures that the doctor put me through ended up very ill , I went into shock and went through hell for five long years ruined my mental health, I am still having very severe problems with my gut, three years ago was so ill that I lost 3 1/2 stone in weight , no doctor really very interested, or casualty just gave me an anti sickness pill ,a anti acid pill and sent me home , I then went into what I would describe as flee and flight , my husband couldn't cope so my two sons shared a two week tagteem to work from mine , and through looking for help at a chemist who phoned amy doctors , I was given an appointment and guess what ? Put on antidepressants and had to sort myself out with help from my husband and sons. I have reflux, IBS, taking Omeprozol in a morning but still have symptoms that take over every couple of weeks and get quite ill. Sorry didn't mean to off load all this but once I started it was hard to stop. 😥😘
Shaan, I'm confused whether my anxiety stems from gastric problems or an increase in gastric acid. the problem is that often when I've only slept for 1-2 hours I wake up with a physical sensation of nausea, sometimes to the point of gerd and very often belching which gives me panic attacks. BTW, this is the 7th year I have had this anxiety disorder
My anxiety is developing from Google searching. 2 years ago I had a sudden panic attack in the evening. After that, I’m searching my symptoms all the time. Then it turned into Anxiety disorder. Last two years I have been going to the doctor many times and consumed too much medicine. I've lost 4 kg of weight suddenly now. And my hair is falling. Now I’m facing some skin problems in my body. I’ve become like an ill person 😅😊
Thanks for the video, sounds like it wasn't necessarily gut related with you, but may be with some. You are right, there is a gut brain connection, but there's other reason too!
@@byebyepanic i m facing anxiety n panic feelings ..i have sedentary life ... constipated most of the time.. a slight problemake me anxious ... m always blaoted n full ...pls pls tell is my anxiety stomach related or brain related ... drs says i m stressed
I would like to add something to what you said Shaan. I have seen many videos and read many articles on this particular subject. I have seen a video where one researcher was talking about the idea that if Gut To Brain access exists then the reversal should also exists. That is Brain To Gut access. Basically your brain health/mood can effect your gut microbiome. I don't remember the exact source I have heard it. Maybe in coming years we might see more research on that area. Also there is this channel called 'Dr. DiNezza - Gut Microbiome Queen', the channel is about IBS (she is a chiropractic, not modern medicine doc. But she herself recovered from gut issues). In one of her videos she shared an experience about taking a coconut milk based food but later she started doubting whether it was 100% coconut milk or whether it contained any lactose. Then she her stomach started to gassing up. Then later when somebody confirmed her that it doesn't contain any lactose at all the symptoms when away. The stomach deflated. So I think the fear factor can make nerves system act weird even in the case of stomach related issues. By the way. I haven't had a panic attack for 3 years since I read your e-book FEARLESS and started putting things in to practice. I had setbacks like not having panic attack for a while and then I suddenly get one. But I believed in my ability to recover and bounced back from it. Your are doing great work brother. I can't thank you enough. God bless you.
That was a big one that I had in the beginning of my anxiety! Once I realized it, I stopped caring, I do relapse once in a while, but I just say “whatever” and move on!
@@miasorryidk if u have any advice for me but a little over a month ago I had my first panic attack and since then been having different things started with just mental now for the past 2 weeks physical symptoms (abdomen, chest, back, head) I go to the doctor or hospital and they say I’m healthy and don’t know what to do and think it might be health anxiety
@@UserUser-d3w7eif you have been told by the doctors that you're okay - then believe it, anxiety makes you think unproductive, chaotic and catastrophically. This channel is only thing you need to get better. Beware that the internet has a lot of misleading or promoted articles nowadays which may make your anxiety higher
I disagree. Too much trauma and stress got me into it. If eating a proper diet could cure my parents suicides and other traumas we'd all do it. I buy your theory Shaan. Diet and exercise can help but it doesn't erase the sensatization of your CNS. Your the man!
@@MrR952 can u give me a tipps of how to respond. Cause i let the symptoms be but the moment i try to focus on other stuff i start to resist again. I dont get the refocusing part
Hello, I have a question about the AWARE method: you say I should not avoid the triggers but simply watch them, but what if I realize I can actually eliminate the trigger? For me I think the stressor is disordered eating, whenever I feel unwell I fall into an ed and this triggers dpdr. I could just watch the dpdr and say „well that’s because of the ed“ or I could work on recovering from the ed and I automatically wouldn’t need the dpdr anymore. What should I focus on?? Thanks in advance :)
Hey Shaan is exersice a crucial part to dealing with anxiety and depresssion? The more I read about science it says that regular exersice is good for us dealing with depression and anxiety.
Hey shaan,I would like to point out an opinion people and therapists might say about anxeity,they say that anxeity is increased within time as long as you don't "take care it"(with therapy and etc),I don't know if you have already made videos about that but I would like to see your opinion about it. By the way,the meaning of anxeity increases in this case,when a person have symptoms which are manageable, without a "therapy" it will grow.
I had dB for years now I tried everything but it still bad i feels like I'm not here invisible i had all the meds but did no good i can't see the end to this. 😢😢😢😢
Hi shaan i have a lot of symtoms going on .the chest pain, heart palpitations but this one i get anxious all the time i can't help to think about it its like numbness on left head or sometimes at the back , sometimes it feels cold at the back of my head slight pain on top left of my head .and the numbness at left of my head im feeling it right now.im really afraid of it now i have deep thoughts right now😓😭
Here is my TOP tips for AIDING Anxiety. Please thumbs up so people can see (VALUABLE). 1. no caffeine 2. optimize sleep; no blue light, expose urself to sun in the morning, eat 3-4hr before bed, black room, and high dose magnesium glycinate + glycine to relax ur nervous system. 3. Optimize hormones / thyroid. Low testosterone for men = anxiety. 4. correct nutritional deficiencies; magnesium, D3 5. Fermented foods to aid a poor gut biome: gut bacteria produce feel good hormones like serotonion, dopamine and GABA. 6. Nose breathing allways; belly breathe. 7. Diet: NO INNFLAMATORY FOODS. so no wheat, grains, gluten, conventional dairy, artificial sweetners like aspartame/sucralose. 8. Get tested for heavy metals, and possible look into chelation therapy. (mercury, arsenic, lead etc).
Did you watch the video? Don’t do any of these things to cure anxiety. You do these things for your health. You know what’s better than all this? Doing what Shaan says and learn to respond to your symptoms and desensitize your nervous system.
@@OGAesthetics I went from bed-ridden, living with my parents, not working, and agoraphobic to running a business, traveling the world, seeing friends consistently, and doing whatever I want without fear. I’d say I know a couple things. Not saying your list is bad, but doing all of this with the sole purpose of “fixing” your anxiety is the wrong approach. It’s all external. You’re creating a checklist of crutches that won’t guarantee anything. The only way out is to learn to accept and quit fearing the symptoms. Over time your nervous system will desensitize like mine did and you can drink all the coffee you want, get shoddy sleep once in a while, eat what I want, and not worry about a bunch of deficiencies. Just saying man. Listen to Shaan. The dude knows what he’s talking about.
So you're saying your body healed itself from anxiety? In my opinion, since you tried so many things, it's possible you didn't know which one worked for you.
I doubt it im sure he knows now how to control it. He got rid of the symptoms not the anxiety. Also process of elimination is how you do it. Sounds like you didn't watch the video
I think diet is very important for well being but it won’t cure your nervous system . It can help you feel better in other ways but it won’t cure an anxiety disorder. What’s crazy is that you brain and how it’s wired can actually effect your gut too visa versa . Focus on calming the nervous system. I’ll tell you this carnivore and all those diets keto did nothing for the anxiety . After recovering though eating healthy made me feel better energy wise and mood wise . I also had better gym performance . After healing anxiety it def can impact you in many positive ways . The more extreme I went the worse I actually got because it just made me more obsessive
Diets are just misinterpreted, if your doc said that you need to avoid some sort of food - it's ok, but to do some yourself. Eating healthy is just to avoid foods you're get sleepy after - it's a sign of stress, fast food for example, and adding a more diversity in your meals
Hey shaan i wanna know how was your brain fog cure mm really having it badly hard to concentrate so my board exam is near but this fucking brain fog is really disturbing me😢
Just recently fully recovered from this. It's wierd because I would eat like crap before my anxiety and never had any gut issues but until after my anxiety attack and I fell into the cycle I would get hella gut issues and heartburn shit was ass.
@rockingraaj4626 it's better. Still deal with anxiety here and there, but I don't feed into it just gotta give it time and change those anxiety habits.
Dude i was doing so well until i got a throat infection and the doctor gave me antibiotics and that fucked my anxiety i was so hyposensitive and the thoughts in my head : what if it's not just an infection what if it's cancer what if ur lungs are infected and got Cancer and my panick started raising my guts got tight nausea diarrhea cramps tightness in the chest my heart racing dude it's worse 10 times than coffee . For anyone who's suffering from anxiety disorder stay the hell away from antibiotics cuz they kill your healthy microbes and bacteria in your guts and that can realy mess things up

Then there was the normal stuff like fatigue, insomnia (waking up every 2-3 hours or just only sleeping 3 hours from like 1:30 to 4:30), dizziness, feeling cold, muscle pains and gut issues…
My friends… I struggled for 4 years… I had vestibular necrosis and then about 2 years later a cancer scare that was hand waved away until I saw a specialist… I was on high, high alert and my panic attacks had me locked in the bathroom away from my family freaking out for hours, not just a couple but like 3-4 on average… sometimes I feel like I should make a vid series, show my hospital reports, because I hear heart palpitations and hyperventilation and I’m like… that’s life, I don’t even consider those symptoms… this is the 4th year and everything is coming together, I’m getting better at balancing being alert and keeping anxiety alive…
Basically, I’m just saying anxiety can really mess with you, but if you are getting better, focus on the better and don’t back track… you are the only one keeping anxiety alive… it is very hard, distraction is key, and practice makes perfect, soon an intrusive thought will come in, you can label it, and turn your focus away with relative ease…
I had very little help, it was TH-cam, lots of articles on Google (nothing on symptoms, just how to deal with anxiety) and (this kind of diverts from Shaans methods a little) living a very healthy life built on the 4 pillars of health… nutrition (easy for me), Exercise (easy for me), relaxation and sleep (hard for me)… but it’s possible… and they all kind of fit together…
Much love and good luck to you all…
And Shaan… keep helping the people my friend, you are admired and respected
Anxiety journey started last summer I didn’t know it was a panic attack and got stuck in the cycle I been educating myself on anxiety understanding why my body is dealing with physical symptoms which has help me but now my physical symptoms are getting more intense my nerves symptoms is getting more sensitive this last week and today I been in the state of anxiety where I’m dealing with these symptoms throughout the whole day I do get breaks from it here and there but it’s constantly there. When I’m at work it’s so hard to get through the 10 hours and when I go to the gym I feel anxious scared but I still workout. Idk why I’m like this when I already been exposing myself for months I been eating healthy drinking a lot of water and sleeping but still feeling terrible physical symptoms. Been to the doctors 6 times did my blood work they told me everything is fine but I never seen a specialist cause the doctor told me they will say it’s just anxiety so he is saving me some time going through that rabbit hole. I do believe I will recover from anxiety I’m doing my best everyday some days will be hard back to back for however long but I know it will pass I will get better
Can you tell me how to recover from it?I have been suffering the same from 6 months till now.and I have sleeping problems like insomnia too,plzz reach out me if you find a solution.
@marcus2224 get checked out first and make sure that there's nothing physically wrong. Then, consider seeing a good therapist. Then, comes the hard part: you have to retrain your nervous system to not fear the symptoms that you're feeling. These steps will get you started on the road to recovery.
@@vtc8570 thank you so much sir🥹,how long does it take to recover?
Remember - focus on your response to the symptoms. Don't fear them, don't get scared of them, just accept them and divert your attention and focus onto other things consistently. My journey started 2 months ago, some days are horrendous, some are fine, but its slowly lifting and fading away as I continue responding correctly. We will both make it out of this, don't worry.
@@spikeSpiegel114 yes bro thank you so much we will recover fully! we have the knowledge thanks to Shaan and others it’s all about educating yourself on why anxiety is causing the symptoms fight or flight nervous system sensitized
Bro you deserve more appreciation. Thank you so much for all your efforts 🙏🙏
Man ive been having anxiety for 3 years. First year was back to back panic attacks every day. Literally lost 40lbs and thinking I'm going to die. First panic attack i was for sure thinking I'm dying and was even ok with it at that moment since it seemed like its happening. Eneded up passing out and fast forward medication has really helped and now my mindset has been strong so i rarely get anxiety. Sometimes it creeps up on or gives me symptoms but i just relax and breathe. The Quran relaxes me and being kind to my parents and wife makes me happy that if anything does happen i lived a life with love and that god has his plan. Death will just return men back to my lord. Be strong guys, it's hard, very hard. But it only strengthens you. The first time you overcome with your heart and mind. The door for recovery is now on the right track.
What medication are you taking?
@@Undressthemess currently on Paroxetine 40mg. Once a night.
Weaning off of it now.
Have you had your hormones checked? Did you ever take testosterone then stop? When you stop it can lower your natural testosterone causing immense anxiety and panic attacks ✨
Man i over came so many symptoms of anxiety but i have this issue with my stomach, it like blows up so big and i feel like i can’t breathe. This has been the one i cant seem to overcome. I’ve been checked by the Drs they say im okay just eat better. But i swear i can’t breathe when it blows up. I look pregnant, its so frustrating. Doesn’t matter what i eat , it just loves to blow up .
@leeannarodriguez3912, your the first person I have known who has said that they feel like they cannot breath, l too have that feeling I have so much gas when my stomach is playing up that I feel that it is around my lungs and I can't breath. I have been dealing with this since my early thirties now in my late seventies. Doctor's when I was younger would dismiss it as over breathing, just would not take it seriously. I have been through a lot of what others have done, found out eventually did have the Hali bacteria, was treated but through the procedures that the doctor put me through ended up very ill , I went into shock and went through hell for five long years ruined my mental health, I am still having very severe problems with my gut, three years ago was so ill that I lost 3 1/2 stone in weight , no doctor really very interested, or casualty just gave me an anti sickness pill ,a anti acid pill and sent me home , I then went into what I would describe as flee and flight , my husband couldn't cope so my two sons shared a two week tagteem to work from mine , and through looking for help at a chemist who phoned amy doctors , I was given an appointment and guess what ? Put on antidepressants and had to sort myself out with help from my husband and sons. I have reflux, IBS, taking Omeprozol in a morning but still have symptoms that take over every couple of weeks and get quite ill. Sorry didn't mean to off load all this but once I started it was hard to stop. 😥😘
Shaan, I'm confused whether my anxiety stems from gastric problems or an increase in gastric acid. the problem is that often when I've only slept for 1-2 hours I wake up with a physical sensation of nausea, sometimes to the point of gerd and very often belching which gives me panic attacks. BTW, this is the 7th year I have had this anxiety disorder
Gerd is caused by bacterial dysbiosis, even good bacteria overgrowth, that's what causes the anxiety, the stomach acid just causes pain.
My anxiety is developing from Google searching. 2 years ago I had a sudden panic attack in the evening. After that, I’m searching my symptoms all the time. Then it turned into Anxiety disorder. Last two years I have been going to the doctor many times and consumed too much medicine. I've lost 4 kg of weight suddenly now. And my hair is falling. Now I’m facing some skin problems in my body. I’ve become like an ill person 😅😊
Did you recover?
Thanks for the video, sounds like it wasn't necessarily gut related with you, but may be with some. You are right, there is a gut brain connection, but there's other reason too!
It was def gut related -but the solution wasn’t fixing the gut. The source was a sensitized nervous system. Majority of your nerves are in your gut
So how do you sensitized the nervous system?
@@byebyepanic i m facing anxiety n panic feelings ..i have sedentary life ... constipated most of the time.. a slight problemake me anxious ... m always blaoted n full ...pls pls tell is my anxiety stomach related or brain related ... drs says i m stressed
I would like to add something to what you said Shaan. I have seen many videos and read many articles on this particular subject. I have seen a video where one researcher was talking about the idea that if Gut To Brain access exists then the reversal should also exists. That is Brain To Gut access. Basically your brain health/mood can effect your gut microbiome. I don't remember the exact source I have heard it. Maybe in coming years we might see more research on that area.
Also there is this channel called 'Dr. DiNezza - Gut Microbiome Queen', the channel is about IBS (she is a chiropractic, not modern medicine doc. But she herself recovered from gut issues). In one of her videos she shared an experience about taking a coconut milk based food but later she started doubting whether it was 100% coconut milk or whether it contained any lactose. Then she her stomach started to gassing up. Then later when somebody confirmed her that it doesn't contain any lactose at all the symptoms when away. The stomach deflated. So I think the fear factor can make nerves system act weird even in the case of stomach related issues.
By the way. I haven't had a panic attack for 3 years since I read your e-book FEARLESS and started putting things in to practice. I had setbacks like not having panic attack for a while and then I suddenly get one. But I believed in my ability to recover and bounced back from it. Your are doing great work brother. I can't thank you enough. God bless you.
Amazing - I’ll look into it. Thanks for the info, and yes I agree of the reverse existing.
I'm about to start the AWARE
Please tell that frequent urination is a symptom of anxiety or not?????
It very much can be. It's happened to me on several occasions.
That was a big one that I had in the beginning of my anxiety! Once I realized it, I stopped caring, I do relapse once in a while, but I just say “whatever” and move on!
@@miasorryidk if u have any advice for me but a little over a month ago I had my first panic attack and since then been having different things started with just mental now for the past 2 weeks physical symptoms (abdomen, chest, back, head) I go to the doctor or hospital and they say I’m healthy and don’t know what to do and think it might be health anxiety
Yes, it happens because of the brain signals to produce adrenaline and it makes you pee
@@UserUser-d3w7eif you have been told by the doctors that you're okay - then believe it, anxiety makes you think unproductive, chaotic and catastrophically. This channel is only thing you need to get better. Beware that the internet has a lot of misleading or promoted articles nowadays which may make your anxiety higher
I disagree. Too much trauma and stress got me into it. If eating a proper diet could cure my parents suicides and other traumas we'd all do it. I buy your theory Shaan. Diet and exercise can help but it doesn't erase the sensatization of your CNS. Your the man!
What are your symptoms pain?
Hi did your iron levels drop when you were going through your gut issues?
Does Anxiety cause changes in skin ? Like skin problems?
Have the same fucking problems. It ruins my confidence
Anxiety can literally cause any symptoms that you can think of.
Yes it can cause hormonal acne due to having your stress hormones like cortisol out of wack
@@MrMikail06 It will go away if your anxiety is over, but it will take some time
@@MrR952 can u give me a tipps of how to respond. Cause i let the symptoms be but the moment i try to focus on other stuff i start to resist again. I dont get the refocusing part
Hello, I have a question about the AWARE method: you say I should not avoid the triggers but simply watch them, but what if I realize I can actually eliminate the trigger? For me I think the stressor is disordered eating, whenever I feel unwell I fall into an ed and this triggers dpdr. I could just watch the dpdr and say „well that’s because of the ed“ or I could work on recovering from the ed and I automatically wouldn’t need the dpdr anymore. What should I focus on?? Thanks in advance :)
Hey Shaan is exersice a crucial part to dealing with anxiety and depresssion?
The more I read about science it says that regular exersice is good for us dealing with depression and anxiety.
not crucial if you spend your time doing other activities/hobbies you enjoy.
Hey shaan,I would like to point out an opinion people and therapists might say about anxeity,they say that anxeity is increased within time as long as you don't "take care it"(with therapy and etc),I don't know if you have already made videos about that but I would like to see your opinion about it.
By the way,the meaning of anxeity increases in this case,when a person have symptoms which are manageable, without a "therapy" it will grow.
I had dB for years now I tried everything but it still bad i feels like I'm not here invisible i had all the meds but did no good i can't see the end to this. 😢😢😢😢
Does anxiety also take part with dryness of throat like you being thirsty all the time, this is my new symptoms by the way.
Yes I’m having that,especially at night
@@mellisalaisa180 how do you deal with it?
Hi shaan i have a lot of symtoms going on .the chest pain, heart palpitations but this one i get anxious all the time i can't help to think about it its like numbness on left head or sometimes at the back , sometimes it feels cold at the back of my head slight pain on top left of my head .and the numbness at left of my head im feeling it right now.im really afraid of it now i have deep thoughts right now😓😭
tell me this is still anxiety 😢😢i really can't stop thinking 😞
I have the same symptoms going on with me.
How are you now?
Here is my TOP tips for AIDING Anxiety. Please thumbs up so people can see (VALUABLE).
1. no caffeine
2. optimize sleep; no blue light, expose urself to sun in the morning, eat 3-4hr before bed, black room, and high dose magnesium glycinate + glycine to relax ur nervous system.
3. Optimize hormones / thyroid. Low testosterone for men = anxiety.
4. correct nutritional deficiencies; magnesium, D3
5. Fermented foods to aid a poor gut biome: gut bacteria produce feel good hormones like serotonion, dopamine and GABA.
6. Nose breathing allways; belly breathe.
7. Diet: NO INNFLAMATORY FOODS. so no wheat, grains, gluten, conventional dairy, artificial sweetners like aspartame/sucralose.
8. Get tested for heavy metals, and possible look into chelation therapy. (mercury, arsenic, lead etc).
Did you watch the video? Don’t do any of these things to cure anxiety. You do these things for your health.
You know what’s better than all this? Doing what Shaan says and learn to respond to your symptoms and desensitize your nervous system.
bruh you really dont know a damn clue about anxiety LOL@@Thebaron666
@@OGAesthetics I went from bed-ridden, living with my parents, not working, and agoraphobic to running a business, traveling the world, seeing friends consistently, and doing whatever I want without fear. I’d say I know a couple things.
Not saying your list is bad, but doing all of this with the sole purpose of “fixing” your anxiety is the wrong approach. It’s all external.
You’re creating a checklist of crutches that won’t guarantee anything.
The only way out is to learn to accept and quit fearing the symptoms. Over time your nervous system will desensitize like mine did and you can drink all the coffee you want, get shoddy sleep once in a while, eat what I want, and not worry about a bunch of deficiencies.
Just saying man. Listen to Shaan. The dude knows what he’s talking about.
So you're saying your body healed itself from anxiety?
In my opinion, since you tried so many things, it's possible you didn't know which one worked for you.
I doubt it im sure he knows now how to control it. He got rid of the symptoms not the anxiety. Also process of elimination is how you do it. Sounds like you didn't watch the video
I think diet is very important for well being but it won’t cure your nervous system . It can help you feel better in other ways but it won’t cure an anxiety disorder. What’s crazy is that you brain and how it’s wired can actually effect your gut too visa versa . Focus on calming the nervous system. I’ll tell you this carnivore and all those diets keto did nothing for the anxiety . After recovering though eating healthy made me feel better energy wise and mood wise . I also had better gym performance . After healing anxiety it def can impact you in many positive ways . The more extreme I went the worse I actually got because it just made me more obsessive
Diets are just misinterpreted, if your doc said that you need to avoid some sort of food - it's ok, but to do some yourself. Eating healthy is just to avoid foods you're get sleepy after - it's a sign of stress, fast food for example, and adding a more diversity in your meals
I’m going through this right now,I have stopped eating so much things I’m surviving with cabbage
I feel like I have sores/wounds in my stomach
Look into animal based diet by paul saladino.
@@OGAesthetics thanks I will check it out
Can anybody send me desensitization blueprints?
Hey shaan i wanna know how was your brain fog cure mm really having it badly hard to concentrate so my board exam is near but this fucking brain fog is really disturbing me😢
I feel bad for you 😢 that thing is very serious
All the mind. It’s all built up anxiety and stress. Try Meditation.
Don't complicate it all. Of course bad diet and meds mess up gut bacteria.. eat right excercise and take tips from other vids, relaxing techniques.
Just recently fully recovered from this. It's wierd because I would eat like crap before my anxiety and never had any gut issues but until after my anxiety attack and I fell into the cycle I would get hella gut issues and heartburn shit was ass.
How are u now bro
@rockingraaj4626 it's better. Still deal with anxiety here and there, but I don't feed into it just gotta give it time and change those anxiety habits.
Kinda walked it back. It’s not diet. Period.
Although eating well does help!!
Dude i was doing so well until i got a throat infection and the doctor gave me antibiotics and that fucked my anxiety i was so hyposensitive and the thoughts in my head : what if it's not just an infection what if it's cancer what if ur lungs are infected and got Cancer and my panick started raising my guts got tight nausea diarrhea cramps tightness in the chest my heart racing dude it's worse 10 times than coffee . For anyone who's suffering from anxiety disorder stay the hell away from antibiotics cuz they kill your healthy microbes and bacteria in your guts and that can realy mess things up
I’ve heard so many anecdotal stories of debilitating anxiety, brain fog, insomnia, etc. being caused by antibiotics! There’s 100% a link
Great video
Been dealing with gut issues. They resurface off and on. Today was the worst then came some chest pain and headache
