- A nervous break down, also known as a mental or emotional breakdown, is a temporary but severe stress induced crisis that causes you to lose your ability to function as normal and you experience a collapse. A nervous breakdown is overwhelming and painful to the degree that you feel like you can’t handle life anymore. In this episode, Teal explains what causes a breakdown and also what to do about a nervous breakdown if it should occur.

I had many breakdowns throughout high school and occasionally do now. Really, the best thing you can do is surrender. Let go of trying to feel better and allow all the visuals, emotions and sensations to overtake you. It's really uncomfortable but it does get you out of the situation a lot quicker. Also, assure yourself throughout this process that you are okay and beyond this suffering. Hope this helps.
AaronP11 hi! I’m currently going through a nervous breakdown and it’s been 6 months of symptoms.. did yours last this long? How quickly did yours pass? I struggle accepting these symptoms daily 💔
It's strange but this worked for my fear attacks too.
Thank you
thank you so so so much for this
Just as I thought no hope left. My chapter in life is over. I can not give into the pain it will destroy me.
This forced 40 hr work week to survive and employees that can't get time off work is essentially killing us more than I thought. Emotional days need to exist everywhere
💜
I had a friend die and work tried to refuse me time off for the funeral. Thats when i quit corporate america
💙
I thankful found a wonderful employer that understands this. We even earn paid time off each pay period which is such a blessing. Maybe look into other positions where they appreciate you more.
In my company, it is 51 hours a week.. 😭
I feel I'm coming to the end of a 54 yr breakdown. I'm finally ready to stop trying to destroy myself. I feel free to leave it all behind and start my life over for the 1st time ever. I actually made this conscious decision just hours before hearing this.
Im so happy for you my friend .
Love ya Grady! If I could give you a hug I would.
1Nature Lady I'm feelen' the luv :)
New improved grady1610 ~hugs~ :)
New improved grady1610 Iam happy for u :) Good luck :)
It's ok to not be ok.
Chita Banana Thank you
Chita Banana Thank you
Chita Banana yes.
Try telling that to my wife
200th like to be together.
I LOVE how Teal went back in being much less "professional" and more human and relatable in these videos. It's so much better.
I don't know since when because I stopped watching them for the exact same reason :D well not only that but it's not necessary for me anymore to watch her every video. She helped me a lot already so I am doing well.
dligac Yes much more down to earth but none the less still as confident and beautiful.
A nervous breakdown is a sign in your life that something is very wrong. You must pay attention to this symptom. It is telling of a problem you must deal with in order to be healthy
Tell me more about it? What should I do?
Depends on the situation and what kind of person you are. If your a fairly strong person who has an ability to be honest with yourself. Then I would suggest looking at the cause of the breakdown. Our emotions are God given....they are meant to be warning signs for when things are good and bad for us. Often times we put the uncomfortable feelings aside.... Just ignore things. These thing build up until we can not ignore them anymore. This results in the break down.
In order to be a healthy human we must have balance between spiritual, emotional and physical needs. A lot these days ignore the spiritual aspect of self....ironic since its really the most important part.
Bottom line is all feelings must be dealt with or you never really move past it. So deal with it now or latter but at some point you will have to. A person can not live a lie indefinitely your spiritual side needs to live in truth and love. Whether its a death, an affair, someone is using you or if you're the one doing the harming. It must be dealt with honestly.
mgtowtruthbomber totally agree but sometimes it's due physical issues like hormonal disbalance
Exactly!
very true....
All I can say is home girl Teal swan is the shit! In the most positive way possible. No seriously best advice I've ever heard.
I'm crying as i watch this! I've suffered from depersonalization/derealization for over a year now. I've been trying to keep up and have so much guilt and pressure from being unemployed and all i do is suffer, but this helps me feel like i can give into my breakdown and its okay
thank you teal!
Hey, how are you doing now? Going through the same, just curious if you managed to get through that
I had my breakdown just before lockdown ..I feel great pressure to get back into work ..I have tried to get help but all I get from people is, your problems are history stop feeling sorry for yourself. I have stopped trying to think as if I do I might not ever stop crying. My skin is now full of a itch red rash. I guess I have just given up.
Same. Im alone. I just want to die. I want to just leave this world and end the pain.
@@mindaugasivaskevicius1764 how are you doing? I'm going through the same thing now. Idk what to do
@@ohyeahyeah5562breathe and go thru it, tell someone u trust..ask for help
I once read: The final stage of healing is using what happened to you to help other people ....and this seems like what you do, so thank you.
Sounds true!
But it’s NOT just what we fear will happen
- it’s what DOES happen.
So we fear success because we DO get attacked, while others just get praise & support.
It’s not as simple as knowing what we fear.
Changing oneself from someone who gets bullied & attacked, to a person who does not - is years of work!!
hi I'm blake and I'm 15 You are the first video I found. and to be honest I was in the middle of trying to not have a nervous breakdown.I was trying to stop it from happening in the first place.. thank you for these insperational and informative words about what is happening to me and others that are having breakdowns... I'm feeling much better knowing that I will become stronger if I just let this happen... I was having suicidal thoughts and already suffer from depression. so thank you. for these tips and tricks to let me live a better life.
Please get help tell someone who you feel you can trust 🙏 life's better for you way too young to be thinking that way remember every day a new day to live your hell will pass🌞🌈💜💙💚💛
U r very articulate for 15, Blake.
You're 21 now and I hope you have a wonderful happy life to enjoy. 💖🤗
I wish you love and strength and pray you have an amazing life! 💓
I feel like im drowning literally
❤❤❤
ThxYou suffering TBI PTSD alone homeless struggling
Grateful access wifi to listen to your advice & pray I get through this horrid time in my life.
🙏❤️
I hope you are doing better now! 💓
Aw ❤❤❤ u will. We must see where change is needed and ask for help where needed..u matter, your life matters
There is a thought I have had for a while now and that is the more sensitive you become the more you almost cant live in this world because of how most of the society works. So either you choose to isolate yourself to avoid all the "hard" points or try to change the system into a more softer place to be in. That is what I want to do, because hiding or running away wont change anything.
But how can u do that?
♥️🙏🏻
I had my first nervous breakdown at 14 years old. I still have them. Iv'e been in the hospital 8 times in the past 3 months. I have PTSD from my past experiences..I was 18 years old when I met my sweet husband who was a sailor in the Iranian Navy. We married 2 months later. Little did I know he was the devil himself. He talked so highly of Persia...this was back in 1973, I went. I was a sheltered child...his family treated me so good. But when I got so sick from the food then I got pregnant, I had to come back to the States. Well he was so angered he had to stay behind because he was still in the Navy. When he joined me one month before our baby was born...it was good at first. After my daughter was born then it all started... He would beat me so bad strangle me, always told me he was going to take my baby back ti Iran ... Then he would tell me he was going to kill me and my daughter she was 1 year old. He would pick me up and throw me against the wall, while I was laying there he would jump on me and bite me. After 4 years of torture and him keeping me locked in the house, having to look at the ground when a man walks by... And GOD don't make him see BLACK as he would say.. I ran away with my daughter one day while he was at work. I went to my moms work place. She saved my life. Can't write any more. To upsetting. I raised my beautiful, daughter to be strong and fearless.🌹
Sorry to hear that you went through this and thanks for sharing with us. Sending love& many good wishes to you and your daughter.
God bless 🙏 you ...good for you

i broke down. a lady came to my door and told me 'you need to eat some yellow watermelon" best advice i received during this 3 year ordeal
I just had dreams of sliced yellow melon before I read this. (I believe they are called honeydew melons, which are different to the melon you described)
not that it matters, but they were sliced in an unusual way too. I will try and explain what I mean. Imagine cutting a (honeydew) melon up into quarters, in the usual way, and placing the pieces down in the usual way so that the flesh of the melon doesn't come into contact with the surface it is placed on, so that there are four equally sized crescents, with the seeds removed, but then each of those crescents is further cut horizontally, but curved, to match the bottom piece. So, with each of the 4 pieces of melon, there is another crescent of melon with no skin sitting on top of it. (That took so long to word in a way that made any sense at all to me)
@@yamagishisan very cool...i have precognitive dreams Like this too .
Tomato helped me too.
*NOTES:*
1) Completely surrender to the breakdown itself. Let go to it and let it take you. Let your body instinctively draw you towards its own way of healing (like physical illnesses e.g. the flu). Vid: "How to heal the emotional body"
During an emotional/mental breakdown the body is forcing you to do that unwillingly.
2) The breakdown is telling you that there needs to be a serious change to your life.
Look at your life at the areas that caused the breakdown and make tangible changes to those areas. Seek help from friends/professionals etc.
A nervous breakdown uncovers your deepest fears. Face those fears.
3) Stop living for future plans. What would feel like a little more relief? Take small steps. Then ask the question again.
4) If you have chronic breakdowns chances are you have chronic stressors in your life (= childhood trauma). You don't feel safe.
Then we tend to use people to feel safe.
Ask yourself:
Why do you need to be weak or unhappy or in need of rescue?
What bad think will happen if you're powerful, happy, healthy and with no need of rescue?
5) Life has caused us to get us into a negative spiral.
What has this negative situation caused me to want?
Then make tangible steps from point A to B.
6) Do things that make you feel safe. E.g. compile a list of things that make you feel safe, small and big things and do them.
7) Do trauma release processes. Move the trauma through and out. David Berceli does TRE - look him up and do those exercises.
8) Give your body something to live off of e.g. walks in nature. Do NOT indulge in junk food.
Get out in the sun for 20 mins a day. A Vitamin B complex helps as well.
If we do not allow ourselves to have a nervous breakdown - if it occurs - our body will find a way to stop us and usually does this through debilitating chronic illnesses.
So ask yourself:
*Do you wanna willingly do it today and make hard changes that guarantee you a life that feels good or do you wanna wait for you body to literally force you to do it unwillingly?*
!! Letting yourself intentionally melt into the breakdown is the fastest way through the breakdown !!
You will not be the same person on the other side of this breakdown and there will only ever be improvement on the other side of this breakdown.
It's okay to not be okay :)
Thank you so much for sharing your notes, your help is much appreciated!!!
I had a breakdown about four years ago and I haven't been the same since. I went into a catatonic state but was mentally aware of everything. I am terrified it will happen again. I was terrified of my own children and animals. It was pure he'll and painful. It felt like someone was shaking my brain, which also made me nauseated. I threw up for 3 days straight. Thank God, I had someone to help me through it although they were clueless to what was happening. Without that person I probably would have died. Stress ,PTSD brought it on. Doctor said it was called conversion disorder, they have little info about it. So please if you are over stressed try meditation, relaxing anything you can do to feel safe. And please pray for me as I am scared to leave my own home.
are you better?
I’m having this right now and so terrified I don’t know what to do if it will ever end
I pray for you and everyone going through this. I have major anxiety and had a nervous breakdown three weeks ago. I took two months off work maybe more. I quit smoking and eating a better diet
Go a few steps outside the front door and see how you feel ;)
I wish I could know if you’re ok now.
I could have really used the information/perspective in this video a few years ago when I had a gun to my head ready to end my life. Obviously I got through it, but the pain and perception that things would never change was overwhelming. My life has completely changed since that time: new lifepath, different people, and a refreshed state of mind. I let go of practically everything/everyone, namely a career and friends/family who trivialized/minimized my suffering. Life isn't perfect or easy now, however I no longer feel the burdensome weight of feeling stuck or stagnant. Best wishes and sincere hugs if anyone reading this is experiencing difficult times. Things DO eventually change, hold onto hope - unfortunately, it may take awhile. Be gentle to yourself.
Thanks for sharing god bless you 🙏 💜🌈🦄🌞

Just yesterday I was searching about Nervous Breakdown and now Teal make a video about that. We are all connected.
Vickyi yes we are, indeed :)
Oh my goodness I was watching this because I wanted to do a college essay about nervous breakdowns. It was only after I watched it and read a load of comments I realised that what I experienced 2 years ago was in fact a nervous breakdown.
I had a spiritual awakening in April 2020 - I had considered it as “spontaneous” but I now realise what preceded it in the previous weeks was actually an emotional and mental breakdown. I was like a zombie that kept crying throughout the day. At the point where I just had to surrender- I said to my husband that I desperately needed some space to process as I was struggling with keeping it together for the two kids. I went to bed for a couple of days and started journaling and meditating for the first time. I set an intention to work through my childhood trauma. And like a lightening bolt, a day or two later I had a spiritual awakening where my heart chakra cracked open and that night I thought I was going to die. It has been an amazing, terrifying, challenging and beautiful journey since. I am so grateful for the breakdown for helping become aware of and heal my childhood wounds, for helping me align to a beautiful life. It was the best thing that ever happened to me.
For anyone going through this I wish you so much love and light 🙏
What if you can't surrender to it because 1) people expect you to be a certain way 2) last time it happened the people around me made it worse when they knew 3) you are so trained and invalidated you actually invalidate your feelings even when having a nervous breakdown 4) you brought it upon yourself through self destruction 5) YOU FEAR ENGULFMENT AND IF YOU BREAKDOWN YOU WILL BE ENGULFED
my parents cause me to have a mental breakdown I can't even look at her anymore I'm tired of being her pet this is my life not hers
I lost it when she said "it's okay to not be okay." 😭
The hardest part is letting go of the need to DO rather than just BE. But I believe this experience is truly a blessing and leads to a beautiful awakening! ❤✨
I need to be able to do that.
I did have a breakdown over 30 yrs ago. I had to be put on medication and it really helped, but it took me years to recover.
Tiger Lily how did you recover please help me im dying please hashmat_panjshiri@yahoo.com
When you are grieving the loss of your soul mate, the love of your life and having a nervous breakdown, knowing that every source of help, every source of authority failed them, what do you do? I lost 30 lbs. in 2 months.
I don't know... I wish you strength.
I lost 50 lbs from anxiety. I didn’t even recognize myself. Now I am losing weight again. I relate to you.. I wish I could check on you.
Dear teacher
Thank you
I love you.
Please do a video about manifesting healthier foods, I'm starting to hate all the foods i once loved and i don't even know that much healthy food that i like and i mostly have to eat what i can i don't have a lot of money for groceries.
Hey, thank you so much for your words. I had my first nervous breakdown last year, I didn't know what to do.. so I did a short research on youtube and found this one. I did what you told. I didn't resist or tried to fight it and cried the half of that day, I cried myself to sleep, but the next morning I was like a newborn baby in my mind, which felt pure and so lightly because everything "bad" and fearful were like gone.
Thank you so much, you saved me ❤
I have had two nervous breakdowns in my life--major ones although I was not hospitalized nor sought medication.
The term is not really definable. When some people get hospitalized for exhaustion, it's due to a bipolar episode or a drug/alcohol binge where they are up for days. For me, it was my past catching up to me. I started smoking pot every waking moment and not dealing with my feelings. That was the first one--at age 19. I was high and it was too intense. I still wonder if it was spiked with something. The second time happened at age 23. I think I was trying to break away from my family of origin and all that programming.
Not getting medicated was a big thing with me. After that first freak-out with the pot, I was scared to alter my consciousness after years of wanting to. So I did what Teal suggested--allowed myself to feel such fear. I had panic attacks where I thought I'd die. But I didn't.
I think it's like a dark night of the soul and when you get on the other side, you have totally shifted. It's actually a good thing if you remain present and aware and don't numb out.
lemurian chick Good comment. When I had a major breakdown, I accepted it, opened the window for the cats to get in and out, and just let it happen. I had acupuncture the next day, which helped...self care. I understood that the breakdown was like rebooting a computer. Indeed, it was.
lemurian chick were you scared taking medication after that episode too?
this has been my experience as well. Eventually weed turned ugly for me. And culminated in a major freakout at about age 24. I was just about to graduate college and absolutely terrified of the real world. Just turrned 50 and had another one. I'll know what this one was all about once I get over it.
Well said I strongly agree
You are INCREDIBLE. Also...you are timeless. These videos are going to help people forever in time. Thank you Teal.
It OK not to be OK...namaste. Thank you Teal🌹
I let the breakdowns go through me and it does help, but it doesn't stop the breakdowns. They carry on happening. Even after inner child work. I was a baby that was cried out, left to cry until shock made me shut down. I know that trauma is coming back but it is so deep, there is nobody there to make me feel like something won't happen. The adult me, doesn't cut it because my mind just says the older me is the damaged baby. I can't seperate myself into the parent I never had, it's like we need that parent or we get fucked up for life
Make a video on demonization of others
I agree... how do you move forward in life when your whole life has been a lie... a lie that someone else invented and kept going to protect themselves from being seen for the monsters they really are. So instead of them being seen for what they are, it's you who looks awful because they turned all of their attention onto hurting you to protect themselves... so we grow up abused, and therefore, defective... (according to some others, and to our own minds at times) There's defamation of character, slander, demonization... if that's what you meant. All I've ever wanted was for people to see me for who I truly am, because of this... but I think I keep attracting people who take me for granted and will never see the real me... because it's all I've ever known...
please? lol!
It's ok to not be ok. ; ) thank you.
How can i ever repay you for making such an important video? I am currently going through a breakdown and I cannot thank you enough. I love you. I will have faith and continue to try my best to surrender and take these steps. Thank you so so so much for making this feel normal and OK.
How are you doing now?
I live in the getto,.. bullied every day...severe flea and mice infestation...can't afford toilet papper or food...yea life is good
please read de book " the richest men im babilonia"
Did you mean" the richest man in Babylon?"
yes!
then read rich dad, poor dad, and finish with think and grow rich that will give you the structure of your mind on how to get out of financialtrouble :) now how to apply it read next how to make friends and influence people! and remenber each time you have a problem trouble get a book of a person that already solve it!! ;) or with the net see a lot of videos about it!
Cheers! Ps: it is not going to be a fast solution forget about it! just steady work to get there ;) Bless you!
Old school been there read that...raise my vibrational frequency is the best..
I can imagine what a horrible and scary future the Syrian children will be going through...
my neighbor, a war refugee from Syria had a severe episode yesterday and I went with him to the psych emergency. I hope he feels better now.
must be horrifyingly scary to be isolated at the psych ward in a country where he doesn't share a single language in common with the rest of us, and on top of that such a different culture...
That was very kind of you to help your friend. Tyvm
@@rockforester7908 can you even imagine being stuck in a foreign country, not knowing the language and having a psychotic episode? However, now it's been 7 years and i keep contact with his son but the father still doesn't speak a word of swedish or english so i he just wasn't into it :/
They don't understand . My parents . I've told them. I've asked for help. And it's just like a 3 day fever for them . As soon as i start showing even one sign of getting better they go back to doing whatever they did to trigger me. Its a never ending cycle . Idk how long i can handle this. I am literally smoking in front of them . They don't say anything to me. I am blacking out drinking they would just quietly clean up after me. I need help. I am screaming for help. And they just... Silently spectating me. I can't understand. I don't understand. I am helpless. Its like i can't scream any louder. I just wanna die now
Mine started January 2020. Wasn’t sure what was happening to me. I had to get on med to help me find some balance along with therapy. It’s been a long hard journey. I had to make many changes in my lifestyle. Definitely see life different. Hang in there, it does get better.
make a video about jealousy please!!
YES please! Jealousy, insecurity, and false accusations
its an such an intense emotion and obviously who would know more than her!!
whenever I look up your name I find the perfect video for my mental state at the time.
Thanks Teal I have just come out of being wrapped up in my blankets for a few days I am dealing with the loss of my beautiful and beloved Mama and I was her caregiver as she and I battled the lung cancer Its been 3 months since her passing and her Birthday March 14 that she was not here for the first time sent me back to being sad and depressed again thanks for your video for the understanding it brought me I am moving out of the room where she passed to my own place and I want all my energy back I am sincerely grateful and thankful for all you do Teal to help humanity love you sincerely yours Teresa Dulaney
mental illness, demonic possession attack, gang stalking...poverty...chronic and acute illness...yes I can do this
I had a gas appliance flash fire back into my face and burnt all the hair off my face and arm. The manager in charge asked me if I was OK? I replied, That Has Never Been Determined. So, how can someone just take a vacation from life W/O being committed to a hospital?.. Due to precipitating stresses, I'm not functioning well and have have a boss demanding results. In a perfect world, this may be sound advise to heal the mind.
I see so many correlations with Root Chakra tips here! I love it. Root Chakra is where it’s at for people who are in a freeze state.
Thank you. I sometimes wish I was American.....It's socially acceptable to have these traumas, in the UK it most definatley not. This has been a great relief for me.....keep up the good work and the conversation xxx
My narcissist ex-husband used to punish me every time I was hospitalized so it didn't give me extra attention. Then after my divorce my therapist ignored my phone calls after I was hospitalized so I was never "rewarded" for having a breakdown but always punished further and abandoned more.
I'm elderly...disabled...handicapped...disfigured...and ugly yep life coaches and law of attraction really help
Thank you for sharing your vulnerablness. Its only those with beautiful soul dare to.I love you for sharing.Arohanui from New Zealand.
YOU ARE THE BEST!!!! Thank you for being so beautiful, helpful, kind, and miraculous... I love your work!
sounds much like a Catipillar, that breaks down, melts down, & comes out as a beautiful Flutter by ~Thank you for the powerful message.. Aloha~ Paul
I had a nervous breakdown after being stressed while dealing with my anxiety and issues with my friends.
ive been having chronic breakdowns over the past 2years since my grandma died and i was sexually assultated, ive been to councillors and therapists and anti depressants but nothing has worked. This video is amazing and really gives me a new perspective in the breakdowns and life itself, normally when i am really happy and bubbly i know that in the afternoon i will fall and stay there and i always have no idea what is happening. i loose my breath, feel faint and cant stop crying and wanting to kill myself and get out of the mess, i feel embarressed that people see me like that and i dont know how to get out of it. But listening to this puts me in a whole nother light and i know what to think about and ask myself in future when my bipolar kicks in, thank you for actually giving me advice that helps what im going through, youre amazing!
I had a debilitating panic attack yesterday... worse than any I’ve ever had before. My boyfriend told me before bed “it’s ok to not be ok”. Hearing you say that at the very end felt like the universe was reassuring me it’s ok, it’s not all in your head, I hear you listen to your body and love yourself as if you were nursing yourself back to health 🥲🥺💙😭
wow, thank you, tears are flowing.
I just want to get out of this toxic relationship
Beautiful video. Very informative.. i loved listening to your voice too very soothing and it was perfect :-)
I'm about to lose my housing my apartment...my income.. my freedom and be locked away in a nursing home mental hospital..//prision or cell yes I'm ok with it..stress what's that?
Teal (or anyone who may understand where I'm coming from and is interested in reading this). I tried doing this 2 nights ago, when having a nervous breakdown, and my subconscious mind did viscous things to me and I felt like a 4 year old child that couldn't escape until it was done with me (I have some fairly serious childhood trauma and describing what I went through the other night would be too graphic to post publicly). I also had one of the worst nightmares of my entire life after it. It felt more like self abandonment than letting my emotions take me where they wanted to go. I consciously protected myself from these demons and tried to love my emotions unconditionally last night (as I have tried doing numerous times in the past) but it felt more like a struggle than letting go. Doing this does help somewhat however and I feel slightly better after doing it, but I'm still lost in myself, and it feels like I fall apart every day. It feels like I've been trying for quite some time and I'm still stuck where I've always been despite taking both drastic tangible action and being inwardly reflective (trying both to heal my emotional wounds and redirecting my focus to what feels better).
Its particularly frustrating given that I had an experience 7 months ago where I met a woman who appeared out of nowhere and seemed to know everything about me, saying she was from the universe. She eluded to me having some special purpose and told me to "let go" (I might sound crazy but I've gone past the point of worrying about that, I just want to speak with someone that might understand me). I feel trapped alone and am beginning to lose hope. The walls feel like they're closing in and it seems like my demons are lurking behind me, ready to leap at me every time I feel like I'm making a breakthrough in realizing my dreams and aspirations. I have been trying and I don't want to give up yet but I've become more isolated and out of touch than I've ever been. I have no friends any more (I never had a girlfriend and I'm 22), I feel like the vast majority of people don't get me and despite some having a degree of respect for me for being brutally honest and willing to take risks. I feel like when I've been truely open with anyone (particularly psychologists, they labelled me and made me feel defective as a child) it doesn't end well end well. My perspective races around the place and changes every day. I can never settle down or find peace in myself for more than a few hours and I feel like I need a breakthrough sooner rather than later, because I won't put up with this cycle for much longer, I'm willing to take risks but I don't want to continue hurting myself. I hate the idea of pity but I'd love to hear If anyone's been on a similar journey to mine and any advice would be greatly appreciated.
You posted this 5yrs ago, so I hope things have improved for you but if you're still in 'this place' the following might help. First, there is nothing 'wrong' with you, the psychologists you've seen, like virtually ALL of them, do not understand how the human being, the conscious & subconscious mind really work. They do not understand how personality forms. Teal is 100% correct about fractured selves, we 'break' as we experience childhood trauma and no this is not just severe trauma, this is being unloved by a parent, rejected by friends, feeling you were unworthy because of xyz etc. Experiences that Drs judge as nothing and meaningless can and do impact and damage us as children. Teal has a different process you should try - the completion process. Using this I have reintegrated all of my fractured selves and recalled experiences I have no memory of. This part feel requires a lot of trust in, not so much believing these memories are real, but accepting that your mind says they happen and they are what your mind tells you are the cause of the negative emotions. As much as I would like to know if certain memories are real I'm not mentioning them to anyone because well they're just too far outside the box and just no. That said I came across your comment because of a breakdown I had not even 24hrs ago. One that triggered subconscious programming from my childhood that I'm stupid and where that lead me to was that my life is essentially over because the ripple effect will be I will end up homeless and with no money. You'd be roughly 27 now, I'm 37. I know an enormous amount about why ppl are the way they are. I've been through just about every terrible experience a person can endure or I have relived past lives where I have been through those I have not lived in this life (See I don't even have a box to be outside of any more, that's how different I am from anyone I know in real life)
I also have no actual friends anymore. They say that all you need is 1 person that you can call anytime and they will be there for you. The only time I've had that was when I was still enmeshed with my family but that came at the price of my self-worth and happiness. -side note, Everyone in my family thinks I'm crazy to some degree, none of them can see their emotionally abusive behaviour except my father, but he has done an enormous amount of self-work but he is emotional disconnect due to childhood trauma, he just doesn't have the capacity to feel for others.Back to you, It sound like the process isn't the right one for you right now (ha right now) the traumatised part of you can't be asked to love the awful emotions, that's abusive. If I remember the process Teal's talking about correctly she wants you to just be with the emotions and accept whatever comes but (I might be mixing 2 process together here but it actually works!) You want to sink down into your inner self and visualise or see the part of you that is hurt, you want to connect with the damaged part of you that is the source of the emotions, the child from those memories where the emotions are coming from. It's to this child that you give your endless support and love and compassion. In my experience I have 'seen' the memory replay and then the child is left in front of me in the damaged form it was in at the end of the trauma, or sometimes I 'see' the damaged child first and mentally visualise sitting with her and making her feel safe enough for her to 'show me' what happened. In this space you are not trying to accept the emotions, you just validate, love, care and support your child self. They are right to feel exactly how they feel, you do whatever the child part of you needs in order to feel better not because they are 'right' and the other people are 'bad' but because that child self of you IS hurt and those are the feelings you validate. The part I do next is to mentally bring out a remote with 3 buttons on it. Play, rewind, and stop. I tell the child self that we can go back and do this over and change what happened and that I will be there with them the whole time. -> This part is about energy, not changing what happen in physical reality, just changing how the energy of the memory feels. I explain to the child self that we can rewind the memory to the start and when they press play they will be able to make things play out exactly how they want, everyone and everything will happen exactly how they want, there are no repercussions, they can do anything they want, even kill people if they want. (You're not trying to justify actions, teach right or wrong or get the child self to understand things like other people's point of view etc. Your aim is to validate the feelings and bring them to a feeling of peace). I did this combination of Teal's process before I learnt her completion process which ends slightly differently so I really recommend reading about it. But after I let my inner child self relive the memory and they feel 'complete' I asked what they wanted to do, some stayed in the new memory, others reintegrated into my adult self, some went back to Source (the universe). Teals completion process has you create a sanctuary, a mental paradise before you begin healing your fractured selves, and that's where you take them after reliving the memory. This work is very similar to Soul Retrieval.
I also feel no one understands me, well no one I have ever know in real life and I certainly don't want pity. If anything I want someone like me who is willing to accept me even if they don't completely understand, just give me their company while I try and figure things out. I've begun focusing on myself in the past few months and moving on from destructive in a very intentional way but things feel very hard. Doesn't make sense when I consider how much I've put myself back together. Well, my inner-selves showed me that in my mind there is a dark fog that they don't go near and these are parts of me that were controlling and horrible and they stay away from this mentally dark place! Going into it, it's just dense black fog so I didn't understand. 3ish weeks ago I listened to a talk about the law of attraction and what no one teaches, the reason it fails. Our subconscious programming runs on autopilot and undermines everything we intentionally do. So there's my answer to why it doesn't get better, our mind gets stuck on auto and that program runs and runs and runs. Despite undoing all of my damaging beliefs there is still a version of them running in the background. I have only just begun learning about reprogramming the subconscious mind, I don't know how to do it yet but when I get triggered I tell my subconscious to stop that I'm not doing that, but this isn't foolproof. I would suggest looking into Abraham Hicks, it's about focusing on happiness and becoming aware that we are either choosing better or worse. Either is ok but it's always a choice. This is good stuff just don't BS yourself into the belief that positive focus is the answer, its not. That spiritual bypassing and it doesn't work. Abraham is a group of non-physical beings that connect with Esther Hicks and speak through her (not trance stuff).
Wow, the person you said that just turned up, physical reality or spirit? That is 100% does happen stuff. I've been the person on the other end, giving others that info, perhaps not in the same way as knowing everything about them but similar. Reading comments like yours reassures me that I am not the only one. I just find it sad that we all seem to have no real-life connections with people who are like us because, as I said, I don't want pity, but having some who is willing to just be around me in all my weirdness would be nice. I hope this helps you, feel free to msg me (can we do that via youtube?) if you want.
My boyfriend had a breakdown last week and tried to push me away because of it. We are ok now but I am trying to figure out how to makes things better
I had a nervous breakdown over a month ago and i'm still stuck. I cant read or even understand what people are saying the majority of the time. Everything is a struggle.
How you doing now?
This video gave me permission to fall apart. I'm finally at a standstill.
oh I sure needed to hear that hell I can't even get out of bed 4/6 days and things just keep getting worse because everybody keeps telling me how lazy I am
They're not you and one day, they may struggle with exhaustion too - certainly if you live long enough, everyone experiences health issues. I am sleeping a lot and doing close to nothing with my days, but this is how it is, I can't push myself, the energy isn't there. I wish you well.
Why when I try to help myself I just get worse I can't cope with life anymore I have no family no friends no body to help me but I don't know if help from someone is what I need I know I just need to stop feeling like this life can't simply be this and this alone I don't know if I can do this I hope the end is getting close thanks for listening guys
I don’t understand how a person can just stop working to recover from a breakdown. How would you pay your bills? If I had ANY illness, I could not stop going to work. I would have no money to pay for life’s requirements.
Hi Teal, what's keeping me stressed and unsafe is during the day my body fills up with energy so much that my belly bloats to such an extreme until the energy fills up and goes into my head and leaks cold air out my eyes. I am woken up in the night usually two hours after I go to bed and if I go back to sleep the energy seems to back up into my cells creating a fierce sensation of my cells on fire. I have awoke with my entire back and arms in pain like they have been sunburned. Also, my heart rate raises and my heart pounds like crazy. The bottom of my left foot gets really swollen like I'm walking on a rolled up sock right around my heart/lung pressure point and solar plexus/colon. This has been going on for so long now and I have stressed for so long I'm surprised I'm not dead yet. No Joke!! I don't know if you have any suggestions to this dilemma I'm just putting it out there with hopes of a solution. Thanks for all you do!! Blessings xoxoxox
. You are amazingly intelegent and so helpfull and clear with your your advise. Thanks for your wise words !
Been there, done that. Quit my job. Defooed because I recognised that my parents were the source of the model which triggered all my breakdowns. Learning how to move on is the hardest part but there is one guarantee, IT WILL NOT BE THE SAME AS BEFORE! I will simply not put up with it any more. I value myself too much to go back.
Thanks, Teal. My mother shared this and it's really great timing. I really appreciate you.
you are indeed right Teal swan to every action there is a opposite reaction ,the body pushes us to self healing .
Why do you need to be weak or unhappy or in need of rescue?
What bad thing will happen if you're powerful, happy, healthy and with no need of rescue?
If you haven't heard it today ... You are so beautiful!
Dear Teal, thank You for being one fantastic sign on my road. With the help of your guidance, how to heal emotional body, I healed great many things in my childhood. But I do not find cause my revenge episodes/thoughts. Less and less, but still they are present, I find thoughts hypothetical situations about injustice and revenge. Can you shine light to this topic, is it manifestation of something common or just something hidden from my personal picture box.
With all the worlds love in my heart, thank you Teal
I had a nervous breakdown, after my graduation. it took me 3 years to get out of it. it was long because i had no support not from parents and i even left the friends i liked and who liked me. it is true u need to give in to your breakdown. as when u rise n shine u will feel all new content person. always know & never forget your weaknesses & mistakes. stay away from all kind of drugs and get high on mediation instead and pray. yes its a high if u believe ;) BELIEVE in ALLAH ( Hebrew & Arabic name of The God )
Allah is Satan not god
Allah is Satan not god

Thanks for the message. Really resonated with it, especially due to our shared belief. Salam.
I just made a video were I tell you about my nervous breakdown and how I got through it. Hope it helps :)
When you have a nervous break down ,you start to cry to the max.
This video is right and wrong👆😂😂😂.
Can you make a video for derealisation/depersonalization please? Thats whats destroying my life for the past 8 months. And no matter what the situation was you would always help so i hope you can help me with this too. Thanks,sending love.
wow
Thank you :)
This video blessed my spirit so much at the most PERFECT time. Namaste!
I am currently in a situation where I am the caretaker of someone so dear to me that is suffering through major depression. How do you handle being sane through suicide threats. How do remain strong when this person depends on you emotionally and no one else is willing to help this person? How does this not affect one!
Can you talk about ocd
1:11 for me...PTSD, occupational (school/work), but mainly injuries and chronic pain

I felt numb and really wanted to end my life......wanted to destroy everything but thank you for helping me
Rewatching all of your videos and writing along in my journal. 😩 It took me a whole month to get over my last mental breakdown and all I want is to be in a loving relationship 💔
I hope you are ok. ♥️🙏🏻🙋♀️
Incidence is rising with the pandemic. Synonymous with Kundalini syndrome, "dark night of the soul", "winter of the spirit", ego death. Resistance will make it worse & prolong it. The successful completion will result to renewal & rebirth. Essential for Ascension to 4D/5D. "Can't pour new wine into old wineskin".
Thank you for being here. I just hit the bottom of my nervous breakdown on Saturday. I tried to avoid it for months and months while knowing there was a circumstance in my life that I had to change but didn't. It got darker and darker until I was all alone in the abyss. Your video is a huge help. I already made an appointment with a Reiki master and will be seeing my hypnotherapist this week. You are so right that my demons came out and now is the time to finally be rid of them; I hope.
Its okay to not be okay
I don't really no what to do anymore I'm really just kinda giving up on everything
+adam martin Yup. Those are some of the symptoms, all right. Find something you love that causes no harm to others and relax inside the bubble that forms when you are so engaged.
SHE CHANGED MY LIFE♥
OMG this works! I got a panic disorder because I had an "pre-ventricular contraction" induced by drugs and caffeine, it felt like I was literally dying and that made me worry about my heart health, even after I recovered physically. My anxiety gave me chest pains and a light headed feeling. I decided to finally sit through my anxiety attack and let it flow, eventually I felt a burst of "energy" or "prana" on my heart region. The chest pains I feel are really mild now and I expect them to get better as I continue sitting through these breakdowns.
snoring triggers a stress breakdown for me. I usually feel like screaming and hurting people and myself and throwing objects. Im basically extremely violent when I have a stress breakdown
What do you do when your own mother is the stressor?
Hey Teal, this video is very helpful.. However, can it be normal that i'm having an emotional breakdown for the past 7 months ? I supressed alot of feelings since a traumatic event happened 7 years ago so i know it's alot. But my fear is sometimes so overwhelming that i feel like this is never gonna stop ! And indeed like i'm living in a dreamworld.. Because my anxiety attacks also caused me to not being able to get out of my house for very long...Any help is much appreciated, Thanks
+Jarno I just had a six month long breakdown. It takes as long as it takes to hit bottom.
I recently went through a breakdown that lasted for at least 20 months. It was severe anxiety all the time, difficulty sleeping/eating, felt unable to do anything, everything abnormal. I did finally get medication that worked. All the usual I did in the past wasn't working. Sometimes there is a chemical imbalance & medication is needed. I believe it was stress factors that added up over time. This did not look to be resolving on it's own; in fact, it kept getting worse instead of better.
It takes a very long time.
Joyce Greer need advice
Teal I am a huge fan. I work in mental health and am wondering if you can talk about schizophrenia? As a former schizophrenic, I would absolutely love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!
Teal, thank you so much for sharing this information and introduction to trauma release exercises. it is amazing. Namaste!
I just needed this video. Thank you dear Teal. Have a good week! Love...
