I unveil the foundational steps to break free from the anxiety cycle and reclaim your life. If I could overcome it, so can you.
Explore the common pitfalls of seeking reassurance solely in physical symptoms and understand why delving into the root of anxiety is paramount. While finding relatable experiences helps, true recovery demands more than mere reassurance.
Delve into the insidious nature of anxiety, its evolution from immediate threats to long-term fears, and the necessity of addressing both the physical and mental aspects. Discover the power of acceptance and intentional action in dismantling anxiety's grip.
I have been battling with anxiety disorder and its bizarre symptoms. I thought I was i alone until i started watching anxiety videos on TH-cam. I am Ghana 🇬🇭 and most people don't understand anxiety and panic attacks 😢
well now you have found a place where you can read and see others dealing with a very similar situation. You are not alone and you can overcome this!
You are not alone 💕 I suffer terribly with anxiety and all the symptoms. These videos have already started helping within 24 hours of finding him. You've got this, you can recover from anxiety, we can! Don't let it take over your life. I know it's hard, I feel like I'm failing all the time, but we can get stronger when we start to realise what's going on and start to implement changes 💕

You are not alone I'm also going through this and I hope God will see us through🙏
It has different types of sensations or you get stuck in a merry go round of anxiety. One month it’s chest pain, next palpitations, next fatigue, next whatever is next. It’s draining and extremely hard to get off the loop.
You're not alone. Hang in there.
For me it was actually helpful that the symptoms changed so quickly to understand that it's "just" anxiety. A physical problem wouldn't manifest itself with daily changing symptoms. Hang in there, once your nervous system calms down, all those weird symptoms will completely go away.
Symptoms like what?
My symptoms do not changed that quick it's years mines muscle pain in my armpits shoulders 3 years before that chest before that throat etx
I have twitches, it’s bothering me
Badaas video man. You truly are probably the only person on TH-cam and the anxiety recovery world who I can fully believe say "if I can recover so can you" mainly the fact because the symptoms you've had and that you've mentioned that no one else Really has like you have.
haha yeah, everyones anxiety is "bad" but what I was dealing with was pretty much up there somewhere :)
Hi Im more than a year in on my recovery and lately I'm not anxious but I just have this icky feeling all the time and my eyes sometimes feel weird and tired and scratchy and my head feel like cotton wool and pains. I'm not scared of it its just annoying and it feels like it wont pass. But I'm trying to keep strong and live with these sensations doing my life....its just hard somedays. Keep the faith
I have been there and the red itchy eyes and the cotton ball sensation was also something I dealth with for quite a while and it stuck around even after feeling better. Trust the process and your body will start to relax and normalize from the months of high anxiety and stress ❤
I think feeling irritated comes from anxious thoughts or feelings in the background. I get that too. One thing leads to the other.
I rarely feel anxious anymore it;s just a bunch of chest symptoms, including one that's driving me crazy it feels like a cramp or tingle in the middle of the chest, cant determine if it's internal and how internal it is. Feels terrible.
Thank you for this. Once again you put out a very relevant video. I think I'm at a point where I am just being able to challenge my anxiety. Even through the symptoms and on the other end I feel just a tad better. My journey the last 6 months have been peaks and valleys. Just a few weeks ago I could barely leave my house, or go to the grocery store with the fear of having a panic attack or silly thoughts of something bad happening. The anxiety is still there, and still very physical, but I am getting better. This video gave me that little bit of motivation I needed today.
Such an important message to everyone going through this hell. You're the greatest bro 👊
I appreciate that 🙌
That sounds like a really long time to accomplish 😢
I'm a senior & I'm in panic mode always 🤪!
Air hunger & constant hyperventilation for me --> which then causes muscle tension of neck and head, dizziness --> which then creates anxiety. I can’t get out of this cycle
You can man! I was in exactly the same situation and my brain was constantly fixated on my breathing. We should discuss this during our next talk. I will write it down and note a few thoughts on this
@@ImprovementPath that would be really great if we could!
How are you now?
@@CecileMovilla still the same
@@jaydendonato1 I have the same issue.What do you to survive?
Thanks For helping me recover from my anxiety and panic attacks. Special thanks to the inner circle!
Thank you for all the support over the months man! So happy you are part of the group and you are doing so well 🤗
I still get dizzy, and my eyes get blurry, and i can not focus on things, especially close up, it's so annoying..
Don't resist it. Allow it.
You are not alone
I feel the same
me too special when I eat or have alot of caffeine
did u overcome it ?
Anxiety is a monster it’s hard to beat it but we have to focus there is nothing wrong and move on. It’s hard with pain. I never knew something like this existed and here I am just over a Year now. I feel weird and get scared what if I go crazy is this anxiety I know I focussed Too Much On The Symptoms. When it started I was bad now That I accepted it and stopped going to d Doctors I see improvement we can do this.
little improvements over time :) thats the way to go. You will get there eventually!
I have experienced all the symptoms you can imagine. The major ones are digestive issues, and pain in the shoulder and jaw.
Same bro. You fine now?
You are among those who are doing god’s work. Thank you for these videos of wisdom! Thank you for all you do, Tristan. ☺️
Nailed it again brother!! I’ve definitely cried more times than I can count.
Thanks, Eric! Same ✋
Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure!
To give up the need to understand it all, wow that is tough as I do have a great need to find out so many things about it, to be prepared to over come it…. Putting so much importance on my feelings and getting scared of my feelings too!! How to develop trust and willingness to accept intense feelings and not give importance to them… that is what I need to learn. Thanks
Congratulations, it is the best video ever that perfectly describes the key points of this disorder. More effective than any therapist who is more after your money than your health. Congratulations again!!
You're a good guy for helping people here. Great job.
I have had crippling anxiety and trauma for 5 years. I’ve been waking up each morning to the left hand side of my body vibrating, sometimes it spreads up my neck to my head. I am so terrified.
Mine starts in my chest, within a few minutes down my arm, hands go numb. Then my face and head, everything starts to go dark and I have to lay down.
Heart rates through the roof.
I'm just a week into lexapro, seems to be helping. But it it's self makes me feel weird, and sweating like Niagara falls. In turn it starts freaking me out.
I wish you success with your battles.
Currently having tension around my temples and lightheadedness I know it’s anxiety but my anxiety is making me think it’s something bad. I can’t catch a break.
I forgot how to feel normal. I feel everything weird.
How old are you?
@@kane4013 I am 31
Anyone around struggling with inner agitation that wont go away no matter what?
How do you do this thiugh with such bad pain! I am completely dissociated 24/7 and i have pain everywhere, i feel very sick!!!
Love your videos man
Appreciate it!
I feel burning sensation on my left chest and my left shoulder blade am scared but i have done ecg which comes out fine but thjs crazy symptoms is killing me like pain in my scalp and tight headache etc
A traumatic experience left me with debilitating neck back and shoulder tension and pain then that causes insomnia, bloating . Excessive worry is evil
@@SkyNetGeneral- it feels like there is no medicine for my insomnia 😖😖
@@Kavya-yh6cs i take clonazepam and trazodone for sleep but still have the anxiety 😥.
I deal with muscle twitchings and dizziness, which are my main anxiety symptoms. Who else deals with it?

Thank you
Thanks
The fight or flight mechanism can and does cause a host of physical sensations and symptoms.
Ironically chasing down symptoms and always being
Vigilant keeps the fight or flight in the on position.
Hello Tristan. I've been dealing with a (like you call it) soul crushing bubrin sensation that is still going on unfortunately. It's been three months,now. I did the mistake of googling my symptoms and i thought I had a neuropathy or SM or Fibromyalgia ect. Now i went to the neurologist, he checked me head to toe and said i have nothing neurological going on whatsoever. I still however asked him what could i do and he told me to go to CBT sessions and visit follow a psychiatrist therapy. Under his suggestion i did exactly what he told me and in some days I'll see the psychiatrist. The CBT session seems very calming and reassuring, and make me reason on a lot of things. Together with the fact that I'm being given "exercises" (like simple daily tasks that i stopped doing because i was depressed about the fact i didn't know if i had something serious or not) that are supposed to help me. Just like you, my therapist and psychiatrist think this is a Neurosis and this is just anxiety playing tricks on me (since there are no sings of irritations or rashes on my body). Can i really believe them? The neurologist said i didn't need to do further exams like TC or MRI scan but I'm still doubtful because the burning sensation I feel all over my body in odd points, still goes on. Do you think i should still keep going and doing what my psychiatrist and psychologist are telling me? Do you think I'll ever get out of all of this? Before you ask. Yes i did my blood tests and everything turned out fine. I'm honestly terrified to do a CT or MRI scans because of the whole procedure and i would like to just trust my medics's words. Can you please tell me what should i do?
What u have is health anxiety if they checked Trust Them
Just Tell Yourself I am ok I don’t need to go Seeing all This Doctors Specialists I know because I have been Thru This and had burning sensations in My Head I was so scared just need to accept it and then symptoms change I noticed when I stop fearing a symptom a new one comes and keeps changing. I now have dizziness and scared to be by my self but I am breaking the cycle it takes time to get out of this. Just accept it and go Thru The waves.
@@Rhianna2023 The waves? What does that mean. Like get a TC or MRI scan? I said I'm scared to do so because of the whole process and the machinery. If by "go through the waves" you mean this, I'm scared because I don't want to... Also sorry if i might have misunderstood but i am Italian and English isn't my first language
Just accept it’s anxiety nothing is wrong. Stop going to doctors. Go out do something that You Like with Your Friends. Pray To God I did MRI and it’s fine Trust Your Doctor
@@Rhianna2023 About God,yes i came back to him. I was driven away by doubts seven years ago but I thought everything again and realized i made a terrible mistake. Now I'm coming back and thankfully everyone was merciful towards me, despite being missing for seven years. As for the things with my friends. Yes I'm doing everything normally like I used to. I also have to do this in order to battle my depression (because I've been suffering from it too. And my psychiatrist told me that Anxiety and depression always go together) it's just... difficult cuz sometimes the burning sensation is strong,but thankfully breif. Or it's also lasting for like a couple of minutes but it's barely felt. I entrust my heart and soul in God's hands and come back to him. I know i have to stay strong for my sake it's just that sometimes no matter what,it feels overwhelming. Especially because I feel a physical burning sensation. But still, God's in my heart again, I'm being followed by a psychiatrist and a psychologist as well,I have a loving family and a roof on top of my head. I can do this. Hopefully time does its work too
@@Rhianna2023 Yes I'll do so. What makes me nervous is that no matter what i do even if I'm not anxious or stressed at all this thing always comes out "to play" but. And i frankly am scared because I don't feel anxiety, at that moment, yet it comes out. I know it. God's with me,my friends are with me,i have a loving family with me and a nice house to live in, thankfully. I just want to hope time does its work too. Okay,I know I'm being told to stop jumping up and down from doctors to doctors but if this keeps up until next month (especially the odd burning with the muscular pain) I'm booking a Rheumatologist anyway. Maybe he Will find nothing again but still. At the very least I'll be sure. I won't get any TC or MRI whatsoever anyway. Sorry for my stubbornness but heartfelt thanks for your kind advice. Truly. God bless
it always have been the fear all along.I used to tell myself that i dont really fear my symptons, but deepdown i was worried ,therefore afraid.Otherwise, why would you be worried if youre alright?
best vid .... going to try just not Caring !
Excessive yawning is a symptom of anxiety? Is anyone experienced ?
Yeah stress
Been dealing with this for 12 years now after a situation in the hospital where the Dr scared me with a HIV comment. Everything something physical is off with my body I start have thoughts of the worst desease. The muscle twitching was the and is the scariest symptom I’ve had
Does anyone have panick attacks with a steady heart rate?
Yes
My son started with anxiety about4 years ago he started having heart palpitations i taught it was streesed. Then i taught it was heart issues i took him to the specialist .He was fine . The he has muscle aches low bllod pressure took him o the urgent care do to earinfection the told me he has low blood pressure too see his promary doctor.
It never cross my mind that he was suffering from anxiety .Took him to primary doctor blood work was done he read his test wrong he taught he was diabetic and they were going to cut his leg he only high cholesterol after the doctor scared him telling him that he was going to stay wth cholesterol al his life not even exterecise 😮
cise will not work his anxiety got worse that is when I called my sister she is a nurse she also suffer from anxiety she was the one that told me he is suffering from anxiety. These are my son's symptoms heart papitation ,feels blood rushing thru his body electric shot on one side of head stomach pain ,he diagnosis himself has gone to er multiple times from thinkg he had blood cloths to heart attacks, and passing out of fear that he might have cancer .He googles his symptoms and gets bomberden with all kinds of disease that do not apply to him
@@mariacenteno5966this is exactly what I'm experiencing
The most freaking one is the weird heart palpitations
How is he now God will see us through 🙏
on top of all the symptoms i was having 24/7 for 4 years now i started getting daily random sharp shooting pains head pains and neck pain mostly on my right side but tge other too and tension around my eyes and head for 4 montgs straight now dove MRI done bloodwork all clear still cant believe irs anxiety causing actuell pain
My top system is heart palpitations/skipped beats very annoying I've had a bunch of tests done showing know heart issues
Yea I had this too, sinus tachycardia, but the doctor seems not terrified with my condition after having blood pressure reached 150/90 but it suddenly came back normal. I'm having also trouble with my symptoms like completely paralyzed after thinking deeply with spark symptoms.
Yes definitely. Does anyone here experience a total paralyzed body for a sec, and came back to normal again?
Have you found a proper health anxiety therapist in your journey and actually helped you?
Diy you overcome without medication ? Taking 8pills a day last 6 years have suffered for 12 years god help me. The medication is making me totally numb
Tristan please help me, I know you must hear this every day, but this symptom of mine is very unique, scary and disabling, I feel all day long sudden episodes of vertigo or dizziness (I don't know) that last 1 second. and along with the dizziness comes mental confusion but it all happens very quickly, but these episodes occur hundreds of times during the day. And I just don't see anyone with anxiety having these types of symptoms. They usually talk about a feeling of imbalance that lasts for a while or is persistent. You were the only one who mentioned something similar in your video about symptoms once, but I don't know how many times you felt this, for me it's been every day for more than 3 months. My doctors think it's due to my high blood pressure (which I don't think I really have since I'm 22 years old and "healthy" and I'm very afraid of having my blood pressure checked) high blood pressure usually doesn't cause any symptoms. I've looked for all kinds of disorders but nothing resembles what I feel, I'm freaking out, please help me!
If I were you I would purchase a blood pressure machine and when I started having symptoms I would check my blood pressure.Anxiety had 65 symptoms
@@mariacenteno5966 its always high when do it
Did you ever experience hot and cold flashes and needle like pokes and electric sensations?
So how do you finally convince yourself that your not sick
Dealing with anxiety from 4 years now. Now am in recovery stage and all my symptoms dispeared and am able to come over. But now am struck with breathlessness. Now not experiencing any panic attacks but am very much frustrated with this one symptom. Sometimes I think I have to breath manually otherwise I can't catch breath. Pls give me some tips to over come of it..
It's still anxiety and you're being hyperfocused on it and resisting on it allow it pay it no attention
I have been there - I am guessing that when you are exercising or otherwise fully concentrated on a task it doesnt happen but it is mostly there when during mundane things or simply resting. Your brain than latches onto your breath and it feels like you kind of have forgotten how to breath. It is still anxiety... and the best thing you can do here is to accept it and divert your attention in a meaningful way that will lower stress and increase happiness in the long term. Once you have managed to get that stress lowered you will notice that automatically you will stop focusing on your breathing
@@ImprovementPath Thanks for the reply.. yes I experience this while driving alone and not doing anything. Then suddenly this symptom will come and it ll spoil my mood.. taking deep breaths. Holding breaths while talking my god it really sucks. Now am not panic but I want to get out of all this. Thanks for the advice.
@@ImprovementPath thanks for all these videos. Have been watching from 1 year and it helped me to come out of panic attacks and it made me understand what i was going through. Ironically no doctors helped me to understand this. I visited more 10 doctors(psychiatrists) in 4 years.
Same
Anybody have taling issues?
I basically live with dizziness and a tingling stomach l recently started medication and therepy but I still have doubts that’s there’s something physically wrong with me rather than this being mental health does anyone else think this ?
You can one hundred percent do it without the medication
My partner said the exact same thing! I’m at a point where I’m so lost rn thinking I have a physical illness that I did go with the medication I’m 5 days in on sertraline so far my symptoms are still very much there
@@kamroncoxon769 It's gonna take a few weeks to see a change.
@@kamroncoxon769takes about 2 weeks to notice change
@@kamroncoxon769I'm in the same boat.. I couldn't believe it's not something physical so I started Sertraline 5 months ago.. I recently started to take myself off it due to getting covid.but also ally symptoms were still there.. so felt pointless..
I think because we're checking to see if they are still there they keep coming back . Even taking meds is a way of avoiding or checking.. we just have to get back to living life instead of trying to cure or fix it.. it's hard to accept it's nothing physically especially with vertigo.. but that's why they say acceptance is hard.💪
