This is real talk here Anna
You have been doing magnificent work on this channel
Being an influencer shouldn't be about how many people watch your content but who you help be better a better version of themselves than they were before they found your channel
On the subject of mind stimulation I have put some potential articles for potential submissions to Pages and or Microsoft Word on certain topics of interest. If you want to try it yourself my advice is write about what you know.
I am not a psychologist myself but I took introduction to psychology and behavioral psychology as electives and I can say about anxiety it that it's not limited to one general area or topic of life.
I theorize people fear they're not always good enough for society standards like when they are doing something like this as an example
Sometimes at the end of the day you just have to validate your own worth and say to yourself "if they think I'm not good enough they don't deserve me"
It takes courage to have these conversations and many of us don't have the courage to even take the first step
We need more of these real talk videos
@@techguy943 Amen!
Your story about talking with the psychiatrist was so funny! I’ve never met a single psychiatrist who wasn’t rude and totally full of themselves. They are a dying profession in my opinion.
*counselor
Anna, after watching your video, I recall my own unexplained extreme emotions at work and at home. My colleague not psychologist nor psychiatrist did notice that I'm easily anxious. Now, I might know the right direction of self treatment I need to search on. Thank you.
I love the evolution of Anna Bey. Thanks so much for this honest video
Yes🧘🏽♀️
She's got a LONG way to go. This is one of the weirdest YT channels I have ever seen. She really is clueless about herself. Anxiety and shame are what's behind all her superficial preaching.
This hair cut is very flattering on you
My anxiety is so bad, it’s been this way for over 20 years. I’ll watch this video on my lunch break, I pray it helps me. ❤️
Did it help? Hoping all of us can overcome ❤️😓
I hope it gets better for you!
If it didn’t help, look up the Anxiety MD - Russell Kennedy
See my comment above.
Try practicing mediYoga
Have your hormones checked. My first panic attack was at 32. Then stopped, and when I got in my 40s it got extreme. My progesterone level was low. My doctor prescribed progesterone and within 30 minutes, it all went away. My life was terrible before from the crippling anxiety and panic attacks every night. I wound up getting on hormone replacement and have not had any anxiety or panic attacks since then.
So glad you brought that up because I’m on hormone replacement therapy and that’s absolutely true what you said about hormones. I had a hysterectomy when I was in my 40s and was put on hormone replacement therapy and I’m very glad I did ,I take progesterone at night just before I go to bed in a pill form and I sleep like an angel.
I've had luck with exercise (balances hormones), vit B and magnesium, therapy. What did not help was AD.
@@helenarichard AD?
Was your period regular? I can totally relate with your symptoms but no doctor told me about the progesteron problem. Please help me
Hello, may I know how you could take progesterone in 30 min? It's not a daily pill? Are there other options?
You seem so much more at peace and honestly, we love that for you. Keep going ❤
Wow, this has made me realise that so many people are ready to be open about their anxiety, but very few of them have actually been able to cure themselves and speak about their experiences from a “post anxiety” perspective. This was really uplifting🤗Thank you
Yes. I had a very long 8 year illness, I was very very sick and the more I thought about my symptoms the worst they would get. It was hard to walk and I was dizzy 24/7 for 2 years - vestibular migraines - but to overcome it, I fought it. I would not let it stop me, I would go out anyway dizzy or not and stop checking in how 'sick I was' that day. I now rollerskate, ice skate and went to Costa Rica for a month solo. Neuroplasticity means we can rewire our brain and get rid of thoughts about ourselves that no longer serve us.
That's beautiful.
So happy for you. Well done.
Hello! Your comment has given me hope! Would you mind sharing how you treated your anxiety and dizziness?
@@luanabandeira-haag6031 Staying active, not avoiding things that make me dizzy or my body will never compensate. Walking everyday if I can. I am naturally anxious so that is still there but the dizziness is not. Check out the real steady coach too, she has a free dizzy course for PPPD
I had terrible anxiety in my early 20s…..started out as health anxiety and blossomed into full blown agoraphobia …..I couldn’t leave my house and I nearly lost my job. I found a good psychiatrist and did go on medication. I got pregnant at 28 and it was the best thing for me. I found that when I had someone else who needed me to survive, I stopped focusing on myself. I’m 68 now and although I’m still an anxious person overall, I have learned to manage it. Age and wisdom certainly help a great deal. I agree Anna that a certain type of person is prone to anxiety…..I find we are deep thinkers and empaths…..we are also very self aware and introspective……those attributes are a blessing and a curse.
the 4 you mentioned are so true
Anna I LOVED your channel when I first found it back in 2018.. as I grew up I shifted away from your content because I reached the goals of my level up journey and your content no longer resonated with me.. I know from watching your videos for years that you’re also into spirituality, personal development, law of attraction etc so I love that your content is starting to shift towards your current desires and this comment is to serve as a reminder that a lot of your existing audience may be circling back to your videos now because of your content shift as opposed to gravitating away from it. Thanks for staying true to you ❤
Same! I drifted away and came right back. It's like we're all elevating together!
@@the.rosamaria yes! Collective Consciousness upgrade haha
@@the.rosamaria even the OG jetset babes 😂
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️ exactly! Now she’s not only beautiful but real. 🫶🏻
Same!
I like where your channel is going.
I seriously doubt that Anna is changing the direction of her channel. She's just taking a brief break from the norm, as an atypical variation. 😉
Me too!!! More open and honest
Only people who went through anxiety will understand what we are going through really, wish you the best Anna 💜
I'm so happy for you!!! The thing that helped me the most was when I had to go on a special diet for my heart. I started eating salmon 4 days a week, and also sardines, along with vegetables and no processed food, no grains, no diet soda, nothing bad. After a couple weeks of eating that way, I felt like I had a new personality! I wasn't afraid of things anymore and I started branching out, doing things that used to scare me. And I'm pushing 60, so it was surprising that I could change so much after so many years. I feel sharper and happier, more cheerful, more energetic, and things don't bother me the way they used to. I think I went a long time without getting the Omega 3 and healthy fats my mind needed to function well. Eating sardines and salmon has completely changed my life. I'm thrilled for you, because I love doing things that don't have any side effects. Everything you've done to improve your life can only help you and never hurt you. Way to go!!!!
Yes, diet and supplements are more effective than Big Pharma drugs with side effects.
Hi was it wild salmon that you eat because I'm hearing that salmon contains chemicals
@@jennifermccullough775 Never buy farm raised salmon. Full of antibiotics, fed some kind of pellets, artificial color added to their flesh.
@@jennifermccullough775 Ugh everything's full of chemicals, you can eat the food or the plastic wrapper, it's the same
@@jennifermccullough775wild salmon is best. It’s the farm raised one you want to stay away from
Thank you Anna for opening yourself up about anxiety. You have always been so classy with everything you’ve done. I truly wish you the best with your endeavors. 🙏🏽🧘🏽♀️
Hello Anna! I finally went to the doctor after having heart palpitations, chest pain and under arm pain. I thought I had a serious heart issue. I went to the doctor and he told me I’m under stress and dealing with heart ache. I’m a devout Catholic and praying the rosary has been a huge help but my earthly life needs a change. My doc asked me what would make me happy and that’s a good question because I’ve been a people please my whole life.
Im catholic too. Prayer also helps me a lot. Yes, i feel the same. Im trying to understand myself and start to do things i enjoy again. I left so much behind because of work. No balance and it made me physically sick.
I'm Catholic too and prone to anxiety. Praying the rosary every day has helped a lot , but I shall try and focus also on things that I love to do ,more. So good to know there are more women like me who who try to live a life of prayer !
@@MT-cx8wb i hope you feel better. Ive been back to some crafts i enjoy to manage my emotions. Its very relaxing. God bless you.
Thank you ! I'm still looking for something I'd love to do, crafts sound great! God bless you
I suffer from anxiety and a terrible "pure O" since 2017. I refused to take pills, I studied a lot and I decided to meet two psychotherapists. One of them taught me everything about how anxiety and OCD function but in the end told me there was no chance to heal from these problems, I had to cope with them. So I changed to a behavioral therapist and she is giving me weapons to de-construct my intrusive thoughts. I am now living again, after years of surviving. You can heal, even if not 100%. You really can, with efforts and time and patience. Thank you for sharing your experience!
like what weapons? please share!
what were the methods?
She made me notice how my intrusive thoughts came from my too strong sense of responsability. I imagine the worst just like I'm testing myself. That's the key, the proof my fears are not real, just a projection of my anxiety. Now I label them, I try to think of them as clouds in my sky, trains I don't want to travel on, spots on my mirror. They are showing themselves less each day.
We all have to remember no matter how proper and sophisticated we are or aren’t we are still human.
The lord healed my anxiety, reciting healing scriptures out loud such as: be still and know that i am god, fear not for i am with you i shall never leave you nor forsake you. Seek out prayer and healing scriptures, it will work.
Mindfulness and getting away from toxic people is also so important!
Thank you for sharing your story with anxiety. I was diagnosed with General Anxiety Disorder (GAD) in 2017. It took me a while to come to terms with the fact I have a mental health disorder. The phrase that I came up with that has helped me cope is "I am not an anxious person, I'm a person that just so happens to deal with anxiety." This has helped me not identify myself with my anxiety and learn how to best move through life with it.
Anna, you could have it for as long as 20 years and not even know. When I had weight loss surgery and she gave a pain killer injected in my IV and some thing awful happen. I started feeling anxious and acting like I never had. My family noticed immediately and commented on it. I felt if my family walked out that hospital door I will never see them again, like I would die. Thank God for my nurse because it turned out that it was the pain killer injected in my IV that caused all as a side effect on me. I told I never want pain killer again, once
was awful. I rather have pain and peace than anxiety but luckily, I didn't need even need a Tylenol because I didn't have any pain and everything went back to normal.
I used to be on medication for anxiety & PTSD. I've been symptom free for almost 2 years without medication. Kudos, Anna!
Could you please share the steps of stopping medication stage ( I am so fearful to do so)🙏
@@zeinabsalam7389 I'm sorry, but I'm not comfortable recommending medical protocol.
Im resonating with a lot of Anna’s videos recently because in order to be elegant, seated in your body and spirit, seated in your own personal power, goals, and seated as an attractive, real, and comfortable person to experience (even by others), you really have to arrest the following: loss/lack of genuine self knowledge, cure limiting beliefs and develop your authentic boundaries and personhood, get rid of anxiety, fear, mental weights (especially invented ones) and invest spiritually in your worth, value, and identity.
I haven’t been able to get out of bed for a while, thank you for this, it gives me hope 🥰
Same here 🥹🫶
I'm neurodivergent, so apparently anxiety is "normal" for my nervous system. I've been this way as long as I can remember, and I'm in my 60s now. ADHD and on the Autism spectrum. Get tested. Edit: Thank you for this information Anna; anxiety can be crippling at times! I need to stop scrolling incessantly through Instagram and X/Twitter reading posts about anxiety and positive thinking because it keeps me thinking about it all! Thank you!
I was referred to do the ASD assessment and im already diagnosed with anxiety. Yes, the overstimulation does it for people like us i suppose. This and unpredictable situations 😢 i do vary on the contents i watch and im trying to be online less time. Its very enjoyable to walk in the park at times where theres less people. I really enjoy listening to the birds sing and watch the beautiful landscape. I wonder if that would be relaxing for you too.😊
Anna, Thank you do much for sharing your story. I’ve suffered from bad anxiety all of my life. It helps to know that I’m not alone and there is hope🤗 You are the best!!
Been suffering with panic attacks 9 years, it is vicious circle of fear and it controls my life a lot. From independent woman, I become very dependent to be always around someone " incase I start dying "🙄. Thank you for opening up. Helps knowing Im not alone.
I have the same. My panic attacks started 7 y ago...since then...i cant go anywhere if i dont have somebody to go with me . Its absolute nighmare
It has to be one of your best videos Anna ❤️
I don’t feel I have the same anxiety, but what i do after work, from the start of 2024, is cutting down on watching the news. As a communication specialist, I must be alert on the Media, but since I don’t work in the Media, I put a halt on watching televised tv. I may read some news, and I stay away from bad news, such as crime, violence.
The other thing I do, is reading books, biographies, and other.
I didn’t have the time or energy to do that the last years, now, I back on it.
It eases my mind, I learn new word, new verbal structure, I really love it.
As a mum of a dog, I take love from him. Thus, I am not that anxious any more, he is 2,5 years old, and now know how to prevent anything.
Lastly, I don’t have a relationship at the moment, no kids either.
I stopped stressing on that.
I feel its me, myself now. It’s always us first!
And the funny thing is, I feel cool and safe.
Love you ❤️💯
Thank you so much for sharing! People don't understand how anxiety can aggravate your life in so many ways. I always hear people telling me "Don't worry", "Take it easy", "Just don't think about it " etc. Finally you gave some useful advice on that problem. Thank you! I love the new you!🌸💞
Love your honesty Anna !
I just would like to share with you according to my knowledge some powerful tips to reduce anxiety :
1) being breast fed early on life
2) sport outdoors in nature never indoors
3) Crying
4) Stretching and all theses exercises that help you to open your body
5) dancing
6) Sex
7) Physical Touch
8) Kissing
9) Keep Close Contact with water ( drinking water, swimming, running under rain ....) water is life
Much love to all of you
Sounds fun and very anxiety lessening....
❤ I think it’s also important not to blame ourselves too much considering there are numerous people out there who have a way of twisting and manipulating situations and who we are, all over the place to suit them. Some even have a way of making us think bad about ourselves and that we owe them something. What happens is that this also was in our upbringing and certain people know how to use this because we show them with our manners. We have to get an understanding of the good qualities we have and know that we cannot satisfy everyone. If someone is making it known that they are never satisfied with how we are or what we do, they are attempting to enslave us to their needs. We need to be are own and know that they will need to learn to be okay with that. We have a right to our own needs also. So just understand that you all are worthy. Don’t have to have the approval of anyone who will never give it to you. Take back your power and have faith that it will work out.
Thank you for being honest and transparent. No matter how "perfect" of a life we might have or how rich we are, these things happen to all of us. These kind of videos are ALWAYS helpful. I congratulate you on being brave enough to record this.
And being out in nature ALWAYS makes anxiety better or go away completely. Going to the beach, especially in winter, is my therapy.
I love when you said " Anxiety is not a curse, its an opportunity to level up your inner state". First step is acknowledging and really knowing We have the POWER. Tysm for this 🤗❤
I'm actually going through this now...this all started when we all started working remote. My anxiety started to get worse.
Been missing you. Happy to here from you. I have been dealing with anxiety for over a year that also contributed to tinnitus. i changed my diet went carnivore and lost over 100 pounds and counting I got my diet squared away. I did have to go on antidepressants I do not like taking medication. after I lost so much weight I wanted to look better and you were a real help me. You are a beautiful person and thank you for your channel. I am a very artistic person. I hear where you’re coming from. I also have my own business which I love very much, and which I am concerned about because of my health going on the rocks. I am an artisan cheese maker, and have my own animals. sorry to ramble on. Thank you.
I know you are not a doctor but this is the thing about healing, you don’t know whose words would heal you and make you feel safe. Thank you for doing that today❤
The medical Mafia insists on those disclaimers to protect their ‘territory’.
Doctors don’t know everything….they just force us to think they do… 3rd largest killer after CVD and cancer-doctors
Anna I absolutely love the new you, your hair, your style, your makeup, you look so fresh and healthy and you are glowing. I'm so happy for you 💕
Your hair has never looked better! The length is perfect for you.😊
Congratulations Anna!
That’s true freedom. 🙌
Because Anxiety is a real killer if you let infiltrate your life.
I love your braveness and may God bless you. Jesus gives peace and comfort and grace .
Similar to you, I was able to heal my daily panic attacks by pouring myself into learning about it. Mostly through TH-cam videos like this and reading! Thanks for sharing your story, it will definitely help others. ❤
Wow thank you Anna so much for sharing this video. I suffer from anxiety and OCD and have a fear of hitting my head really hard and developing a traumatic brain injury ,have internal bleeding in the brain and develop epilepsy because of a head injury .I fixate on these negative intrusive thoughts. Especially when I hear about people who got hit on the head and died or developed an illness
I sent this video to my mother in hopes that she can take something away from it that can help her anxiety. I appreciate you sharing your experiences.❤
You're so real and comfortable... blissful vibes...
I have severe anxiety attack for years. Thanks you for sharing ❤
I can't like this video enough! As a person who has struggled with anxiety in recent years I really appreciated your transparency and the helpful tips you shared. All the best to you on this journey!
Thank you for sharing. This is very brave to share your deep feelings with us.
Thank you for talking about this topic and normalizing that even successful people such as yourself can struggle with mental health problems. Even though there is a lot of conversation nowadays about mental health, as a therapist we still see older clients (40 plus) who have never been to therapy even though they have needed it and are very reluctant to access therapy because of the stigma that was associated with it for so long (and still is to some degree). I'm glad that you found something that was helpful for you. No approach is a one-size-fits-all and people should seek the support/therapeutic approach that works best for their particular situation.
Also, don't take it personal that your psychiatrist had a waitlist. It is very normal for busy clinics to put on a waitlist. I currently have one and I hate turning clients away, but in reality there is only so many people we can see without burning ourselves out, so in order to provide best client care, we do have to sometimes put on a waitlist when our caseload is too large. Best of luck in your recovery! :)
Love you for being candid Ana! 💗
Thank you for sharing this! ❤
By making yourself vulnerable you strenghten a lot of people!
We're just not perfect, but we strive to do the best we can within our abilities.
Anxiety is one of the worlds most common problems.
Thank you for opening up. You're a great help for others.❤
Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
I love the expansion of the content on this channel. Thank you for opening up💕
I am an avid supporter of your journey with Misty and Captain. Isn’t it such a gift how horses make us show up for them and clear the issues we need to, to be the best we can for them and ourselves ❤
Thank you for being so vulnerable and transparent ❤❤❤
Props to you, Anna, for voicing the unthinkable online. As soon as I started sharing my story with postpartum depression so many people opened up about their struggles with mental health. It is a hell of a hellish journey but with more transparency and less stigma people will go very very far with recovery. Stay healthy!
You have been a dear friend to a number of people who you will never meet. Thank you for sharing Anna.
I love the direction your channel is taking. Thank you for your honesty and vulnerability.
It is brave to share this with us, thank you.
thank you for opening up and trusting us! god bless you
Anna, thanks for sharing your anxiety struggles! So many of us have suffered with it and you're right about how it can snowball and take over your life. I'm glad to hear you are in a happy place 🤗
When you talk it's so so sincere❤❤❤
This was so helpful. I can't tell you how much I appreciate hearing about your journey.
I am so grateful you are addressing the topic of anxiety. If someone has mood swings, panic attacks, and ongoing free-floating anxiety, it is a good idea to get counseling from an effective professional. All of these symptoms can possibly be due to unresolved issues and wounds from childhood. A professional can help someone through the grieving and healing process. Anna, you’ve made so many videos about beauty and glamorous lifestyle, and I really appreciate you being so open and honest and vulnerable now. Nobody’s life is perfect, no matter how much money or beauty a person has. You are obviously evolving in your life and this will inspire others. There’s nothing wrong with beauty and high-end lifestyle, but personal/spiritual growth is so important to have a fulfilling life. Best wishes to you on your journey.
Thank you so much for making this video Anna. It’s nice to know that I am not alone. Ever since Covid started I have been battling this crippling fear of death. I also find myself becoming fearful of more and more things, and pre-existing fears getting worse. It’s so frustrating because I want to live a full, vibrant, adventurous life, but I suddenly find myself afraid of everything.
Thank you for telling your story. It is so important for so many people and helps raising awareness about this problem.
Anna, thank you so much for the bravery and vulnerability you shared with us. These things are certainly not easy to do, but please know I think you are an incredibly brave, strong, intelligent woman, and I for one found your story deeply helpful. I've felt anxiety creeping into my life too. I'm 39 and I often worry about the future, particularly how to afford a house in an expensive country and retirement. I also just left a toxic boss who was deeply critical and emotionally absent which compounded things. My once healthy self esteem is...gone. I'm so scared of making a next move because I fear the next toxic boss. I feel paralyzed. You have confirmed what that small voice inside of me is saying: seek help now before things snowball. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for just being a normal person and sharing. Help now feels very accessible.
Thank you for sharing! It will help others! :)
Thank you Anna for sharing this vulnerable part of you. I also suffer from diagnosed GAD and panic disorder and it can be really debilitating and isolating. I appreciate you raising awareness to this topic ❤ sending you positivity and healing
I am still healing from my anxiety it's a process. And there were times that I would tell people I have anxiety and as I told them I thought it is not true. So I get what you mean by not announcing it. Also keeping your mind stimulated is a great idea. Thank you for sharing your story Anna ❤
Thank you for sharing. Been following you for over a year.
Your evolution is enlightening. Aren’t we all evolving??
Dear Anna, thank you for your honesty and your helping words. You are shining!💖
Yes, Anna!!! Thank you from all of us who have to hide mental disorders!!! Maybe we don't have to hide anymore because Anna can talk about this. Among many therapies, like DBT, there is also equine therapy (therapy with horses) which I am planning for soon in the future. 🐎Will finish this precious video as soon as I can. Bigtime applause, Anna!!!! I am so proud of you!!! Growth!🌱🌲❤️
Thank you for sharing Anna. You’re always surprising me with your amazing depth and compassion to share your own journey! I had ocd and panic disorder, and I took the route of medication a few years ago and I’m so thankful for that, I’m so happy for you that you found the journey that worked for you! I love the idea of disconnecting from it and it honestly never occurred to me before!
So great to hear you feel happy! and it feels you are so much calmer and “let it go” speaking .
Keep it going girl!
With your growth and evolution shared here, I continue to feel grateful I found you here and subscribed to your channel for years now. Thank you, Anna.
You must’ve read my mind, because this is just in time for me! Thank you 🙏
Excellent video Anna. Thank you for sharing something deeply intimate. I really needed this video today. ❤
Thanks for this, Anna! Anxiety is awful. I recently went through 2 years of severe health anxiety and OCD. Feeling a lot better these days, but it’s always a journey.
Appreciate you sharing ❤
Thank you Anna for opening up about this. Makes us feel we are not alone. I do love this new track you are taking...more down to earth. Much love from the Philippines
I have noticed that you’ve seemed a lot more relaxed and lighthearted lately!! I truly have noticed that. I will try to implement these suggestions- when you said anxiety is more prevalent in creative people really struck a chord with me. Of course! I’m kind of bored so just think of scary situations- kind of as entertainment!! That’s very enlightening. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing yourself with such a transparency and positive attitude
Happy looking beautiful!! So happy the color undertone got fixed! Also thanks for the advices 🎉
I love your honesty. You have helped me a lot over the last few years.
Anna I love your courage to talk about things we tend to reppress and not acknowledge and hence not cure. You are a great inspiration for me:)
Anna, i have been a long-time watcher of your videos and I'm so proud of you and I'm really loving these new types of videos. Thank you for being honest and bringing awareness. God bless you.
I love all your content, but I absolutely LOVE the last 3 videos of your channel! More depth and transparency, I really like the direction of your channel ❤
Thank you for this ❤ hearing the stories of those I admire who have struggled with mental health gives me the strength to keep fighting for my own mental heath
Thank you for sharing this Ana. I feel ashamed of my anxiety, like it makes me defective and means I’ll never be high functioning or reach my dreams. It’s such a relief to know that some who appears to me to have “made it” for all intents and purposes has a similar issue. It means it doesn’t need to hold me back maybe I just need to start giving myself credit
Thank you for your honesty Anna, you always seem so confident and sure of yourself in your videos and pictures and it's reassuring to know you've dealt with those same feelings and are able to overcome them. Thank you for the advice ❤
Thank you for sharing your story. It helps others know they aren’t alone.
I've already admired you for so long as an elegant lady, but my respect for you has gone up so much hearing you be so honest about your decision to shift the focus of your content. I'm also so proud and happy for you in regards to your anxiety journey, as someone who has struggled with it myself I know it must not have been an easy thing.
Hearing you discuss things like anxiety, our current dating culture, these are things that so many people are struggling with nowadays. So this type of content is so important and needed, and I cannot thank you enough for deciding to make it! I can't wait to see what content you'll come out with next.
Wishing you every blessing and happiness! ♥
Anna, thank you for this video. I'm also a business owner and my anxiety started right when I started it (3 years in now). Somehow, before I didn't connect the dots that it might have started right at this point (I blamed pandemic, but its over now) as society romanticizes starting your own business and sees it as an ultimate goal. However, for many of us it comes with a cost. Thank you so much for speaking about it, it means a lot.
Thank you so much for making this video. I went through this in my late teens through mid-twenties, and it was beyond crippling. Thank God for much self-reflection, education, wisdom with age, and Lexapro:)
I'm really grateful you made this video. I was able to overcome crippling anxiety without medication. I know how fortunate that makes me, and I don't judge anyone doing anything that helps them feel better. Anxiety hurts. People need to hear that it's possible to overcome, and there's a beautiful life waiting for them once they do. Also it's nice to give people some advice on getting through this journey. Thank you for always being so kind and genuine. ❤️
Thanks for sharing your pain! Praying you'll completely recover from it! 💗
My panic attacks started this summer when my husband left me in the middle of in vitro process. This ultimate betrayal left me with my body shut down, hormonal damage and uncontrollable panic attacks. My solution to those: meditation, breathing work, walks in the woods/ parks and journaling. Any form of therapy (for the moment maybe) aggravated it.
Why do you think he left? Was he really all-in with having children?
@@island661 That’s the question he didn’t bother to reply, not to mention that he insisted on in vitro. I would mind not having kids.
@Alisha_Hendrix thank you🙏will have a look.
@@karo1922sorry you could get no closure, that sucks. hugs
Sorry for your experience! If he left, he is not the man for you, you are supposed to be with someone else. If he insisted to do in vitro and you don't mind not having children ... your answer might be here in these 2 phrases, he might look for someone else he is more compatible with, and you should too. Wishing you the best ❤ Everything will pass
Anna, just wanted drop a comment and express how much I admire you. I love how upfront and honest you’re being nowadays. I’ve always enjoyed your other content, but it’s just a further reminder that we are not alone in things many of us are struggling with. That too can still reach our full potential like you did. ❤️
Thanks Anna. I have health anxiety. Its good to hear others talk about it and i really needed to hear it today.♥️
Hey Anna, this is a great thing to share publicly. I applaud you! So many people suffer from anxiety and it seems like the increasing awareness has helped de stigmatize it. I “escaped” my anxiety for years with alcohol. What I didn’t realize was that my alcohol use was actually contributing to my anxiety. The more my drinking got out of control, the more my anxiety became out of control. My blood pressure increased from the heavy alcohol use, and the anxiety over what I had done when I was drinking compounded my problem. I was in and out of the hospital with anxiety attacks that felt like heart attacks.
I’ve been sober for 2 years, and I’ve also been gloriously free from anxiety for the whole time I’ve been sober! I will never turn over my life again to escaping with alcohol. There are so many healthy ways that I have learned to cope with life’s challenges. I see a therapist every 3 weeks. I was treated with Effexor by a Psychiatrist. And I continue to work my recovery program, living life by the 12 steps. I have been happier and calmer than ever. But, it all takes WORK. I like that your story conveys what it takes to get a handle on our mental health needs.
Thanks for sharing your experiences, Anna, and for bringing awareness to a mental health issue that not a lot of people want to talk about.
This haircut looks gorgeous on you!
Dear Anna,
I've watched you grow and honestly you've brought a light to high society that hasn't really been talked about before.
People have this skewed idea of how high society is or should be but you've personally brought some level of... authenticity to it all. The video prior to this one made me question as to WHY I want the things that I want in life and the answers to my own questions have never been more clear till now, thanks to you.
You've taken that prestigious veil off to everyone who's pursing a certain lifestyle and there is such a thing as "too much of a good thing". People get bored and start chasing things like luxury brands and labels but in reality, at the end of the day, you might be thinking that you're just going to be judged for having a humble slow life.
I think you embody what true high society was/should be. There's a quiet confidence about you now despite there being so much anxiety in the present day.
You're different and I appreciate that ❤
It was a job that brought on my anxiey. It was very debillitating and one day, I left for the day and never went back. I actually had to check myself into an inpatient program for a week. That was 14 years ago and I still have anxiety, but I am much better at coping with it. The more I understand it, the less it can control me
I have had jobs that escalate my anxiety. Currently, I'm in one that's about 60 hours/week and trying to deal with it now.
