Great video thank you! It is great to have a video explaining the differences.
I really believe that one of the main reasons I ‘got stuck’ is I spent such so long worrying myself sick what it actually was, all the medical checks I had slowly ruled things out but then all I was left with was the drs saying it was probably labrynthitis and now anxiety. All during a pandemic too!
I know I had questions for so long and struggled with not having any clear reason why vertigo happened out of nowhere.
I think that’s why you’ve helped me SO much because you’ve explained so much that has made things a lot clearer for me.
You have literally been a beacon of light in a horrible storm x
❤ ❤ Thank you, thank you, thank you for such a kind compliment! It is truly such an honor! Above all though, thank you for putting your trust in me! I am so glad I am able to help!
Hello, my name is Pablo. I was diagnosed with MV 22 years ago. I took a lot of medications and nothing. Only clonazepan helped me to be able to sleep and continue with my life. I left clonazepan because it was indistinct. I felt the same taking or not taking it a year ago. I had a problem that drew me back again with this disease. Now last month I visited a neurologist who specializing in lumbar problems and I listened to him how they came to the conclusion of bestibular migraine. I told him about everything that happened. He listened to me. He examined me. He asked me for a brain and cerebellum tomography but he tells me that for him it’s not a vestibular migraine for him. The problem I have is anxiety and he prescribed me divalprox and 4 days ago I’m taking it. He told me that they take effect after 2 weeks. I’m more confused than
Great video as usual. The clarity on how to differentiate issues is really helpful because I think so many suffering with dizziness issues need to be their own advocates in the medical system.
Thanks, Paula! I get asked a lot if the lack of eye movements means BPPV is ruled out, and then I also get asked if positional symptoms are always BPPV. I felt it was a good idea to set the record straight!
Very good explanation Dr Arthur
Thank you, Sivanandini!
Hello Dr Yo,
this is my story, I was diagnosed with bppv, in my left ear when I bent my head it triggered a rotational vertigo, after the maneuver nothing! but I still have some dizziness.. for 1 year.
days I have nothing and sometimes they come back but it's light!
thank you for all.
I did scanner IRM and blood test and neurological tests but nothing special.
but I was always scared and I was very anxious, but since I came across your youtube channel it was a miracle!
I am no longer afraid of my symptoms and it has greatly helped me to reduce my symptoms!
I m French, excuses my mistaskes 😅
I am so glad to hear of your progress, Helene! You can do it!
Thank you so much for this explanation. 💗
You are so welcome, Rose!
Bonnie Clark here, I'm in your group.
This was very informative! I think I've had bppv in the past because it started with me turning my head from left to right while lying on my stomach. That was about 3 years ago. Now I'm an anxious mess, perimenopausal and having a stressful time in my life. I have a low level light headedness and a feeling of really heavy legs several times a day, lasting as long as I'm moving. It gets better when I sit still, naps help too. Driving is ok for the most part. Should I be doing vrt exercises? I've been seen by ent a few years ago and several other drs too and was told it was anxiety. I'm a little unsure as where to go next for help. Back to ent, more testing? Thank you so much for putting this information out there. 💙
Hi Bonnie!! This sure sounds like neural circuit dizziness, but if you haven't had a thorough workup in a while, it might be a good idea to visit a vestibular therapist to have a BPPV check. I'll be very surprised if you have it, but it doesn't hurt to be checked. I think everything else going on is the likely culprit.
Mine is definitely PPPD. Those maneuvers (over two dozen times) never worked for me. Even did a "headset" where the physical therapist said eye movement was normal after 45 minutes looking into darkness while he adjusted my head and body.
Hi Sean, sounds like you're right!
Great video as always!! You are mentioning several key things here that some dr's just aren't telling patients, or downright aren't educated about. It's such a classic example to have a BPPV attack that morphs into a neural circuit dizziness state that can go on for a long long time. Especially if there is stress already present. This is me in a nutshell. There are groups on Facebook with dozens and dozens of people that are saying they had BPPV for half a year, two years or even more. They are all likely having NCD, and they don't even know about it. I just hope your work reaches out there to those that need the help and information.
One minor but perhaps interesting remark: It certainly is very easy to end up in avoidance behaviors after a BPPV attack. I sure am. I do the D vitamin thing and I still sleep on my left side only (right ear assumed to be the affected). I have not yet became a reposition exercise junkie, but there is actually some science saying that a weekly (at home) reposition maneuver of the affected ear and channel can drastically reduce the risk of having a new episode. If you're interested, I'll dig out the study. Whatever this is healthy behavior however is another question. This is however one of the very few things I found in the studies to avoid recurring BPPV episodes. This, and D-vitamin is showing some potential. But that's about it.
Hi Kristian! Yes, those are good points! I actually think it's a great idea for people with recurrent BPPV to do prophylactic repositioning maneuvers once a week or so. I think that is perfectly healthy. I just question whether all people who have been diagnosed with recurrent BPPV actually have it! And yes, vitamin D plays a role- it's a really good ideas to get those levels up.
@@TheSteadyCoach Absolutely. I think A LOT of people who say they have long-running or frequently recurring BPPV actually has NCD. I'm going to do my best to push your stuff into my swedish groups for the "I had BPPV for years" kind of people. Unfortunately, they are very hesitant to buying into this. Reason being, the most common term in Swedish for chronic dizziness is (translated) "PHOBIC dizziness". People think it's a mental disease and the "I don't have mental problems" defense activates immediately.
Oh yes. I totally understand. That's actually why I originally put out that video on PPPD- because by explaining it that way (your nervous system is responsible), it takes the psychological baggage out of it. This was one of my first TH-cam videos and I laugh at my editing now (seriously it's funny), but the content is easier for skeptical people to digest than my more recent stuff. th-cam.com/video/54P_zcxd0oU/w-d-xo.html
@@TheSteadyCoach It's always a chore to get things across as intuitively and easy as possible. Then as experience and techniques evolve, things turn more and more into this incoherent mess and the perfectionist comes out, wanting to redo and re-edit everything. And the cycle repeats. Sigh. :P
Thank you for sharing this. What would systemic disorders or diseases be the cause constant dizziness? And what kind of testing would need to be done to figure that out?
Doctors will usually do imaging, blood tests to rule out cancers, thyroid issues and autoimmune issues, and vestibular testing to make sure there is no physical explanation. Systemic issues can cause dizziness but they can be identified by medical testing.
Hi Dr. Yonit thank you for all the videos. They are helping me a lot. My biggest problem is my fear of the dizziness. I am focussing on the dizziness all day long. It is like an obsession. If I am managing to stop being afraid, the dizziness gets a lot better. But then I am afraid if it comes back....and then it does...Stop focussing on the dizziness is key I assume...but how? :-) Can you help?
Hi Henk, I'm so glad the videos have been helping you out. Yes, that cycle of fear and anxiety is overwhelming and can contribute to the symptoms, but I like to think of it as its own symptom. I have a whole video on this. th-cam.com/video/yJ639hDU6w8/w-d-xo.html There are a few different ways to tackle it. Somatic tracking th-cam.com/video/Xz15HrSpISo/w-d-xo.html is a way to help your brain stop reacting to it, and I also like Turning Toward th-cam.com/video/1bFcdKX5VAE/w-d-xo.html . It might be really helpful for you to take the course- I synthesize a lot of information from my channel there, and it's completely free. members.thesteadycoach.com
I want you to know how much I appreciate your videos! They’ve gotten me out of some of the darkest times. My chronic dizziness symptoms started after what I think was BPPV. I think that because of the panic attack I experienced, it led to lingering dizziness in the form of PPPD. Except, my doctor seems to think that it’s all BPPV related & that the chronic dizziness i’ve felt for over a year now is still just an after-effect of the BPPV episode. My question is, is it possible for BPPV to cause such long-lasting & persistent symptoms? Or is the lingering dizziness separate from the BPPV episode(s) entirely?
Hi Samantha, thank you so much 😊. BPPV can absolutely be the trigger but what starts the chronic symptoms is not what keeps them going. At some point, the crystals are fine and it’s the nervous system that’s causing the symptoms.
Hi can you please do a video on nystamus since 2014 i have nystamus when this all started
Hi Joycelyn, I'm sorry you're experiencing this. I probably won't have any specific videos on nystagmus because nystagmus can have so very many causes, most of them not vestibular and therefore out of my area of expertise. Nystagmus can be a side effect of vestibular disorders, which I discuss here, but it's not the cause of the dizziness, just an observable effect.
thanks dr.yonit for quick reply.please guide me what to do.my physiotherapist suggest it is bppv. but i dont think it is.i always have dizziness..
Hi Hina, usually BPPV doesn't lead to constant dizziness. Have you already taken the course? The course is 100% free and reviews my entire procedure for helping people whose symptoms aren't medically explained. members.thesteadycoach.com
@ The Steady Coach So I’ve been having a really hard time the last 16 months: a lot if feeling off and then August 2022 got slammed with BPPV and was bed/couch ridden. Finally got in to see a great VT and I had complex BPPV (both ears and two places on each ear!) it took six weeks of some nightmarish experiences to get it cleared out but then of course there’s the PPPD which I think Ive had fir a loooong time following probably vestibular neuritis. My question for you, Dr Yo is can I make myself worse if I do the typical maneuver (which my VT eventually taught me how to do) if I have crystals in a different canal (ex anterior vs posterior). I may have done today.
The answer is… yes, there is always a chance that crystals could migrate to a different canal if the wrong maneuver is performed. Not pleasant but also can be dealt with.
I have BPPV and had the epsey in hospital. Sill a week later I get terrible nausea if I lay on my left/right. The nausea goes away if I lay on my back. I’m back at the ENT hospital soon.
I’m sorry you’re dealing with this, Paul! Sometimes it takes more than one Epley to correct BPPV.
This is exactly what has happened to me many times. Last year I had the crystal imbalance 4 times and every time the fear of it reoccuring increased greatly. I am able to do the manuever at home with success but I find when I am anxious I feel like I am dizzy again and fall into a full panic attack. I have a phobia to vomiting so when I experience dizziness I am so afraid of vomiting.
You are 100% right about the link between the anxiety and the symptoms. If you are able to address and reduce the anxiety, you won’t have the symptoms anymore.
Hey there, do you think its's possible to have PPPD that began solely from extended periods of elevated stress and anxiety?
Absolutely yes.
Hi again! Loving your videos. I suffer from chronic anxiety, and during the last two years became very anxious and stressed about covid. Sept last year I started to feel very unwell but the doctors could find nothing physically wrong with me. Nothing at all. Chest xrays (I kept saying I felt short of breath) fine, bloods all good, nothing wrong. I started to have episodes of feeling woozy, and then like I was being pulled to one side, unsteadiness. Can extreme anxiety after long periods of time do this? I kept blaming anxiety. Then one day in Dec I had a dizzy spell and I had a huge panic attack about it and I've been terrified and dizzy ever since. ENT consultants have found nothing physically wrong with me, suggest pppd. Can stress bring on the vestibular problems I was having? Again, my gp found no physical cause for me feeling unwell and they kind of thought it was an anxiety response to covid.
Hi Chelsea! Stress can definitely be a trigger to dizziness and I have seen this in many of my clients. I would recommend working through my free course if you have not already done so members.thesteadycoach.com/. I think you will find some great nuggets in there to help with your healing ❤
@@TheSteadyCoach Thanks for your response! I've had ct scam of head, hearing tests, vision tests, check up with eyes by both ent consultants, checking for eyes moving side to side, crystals, they were both satisfied that the main cause of my dizziness was anxiety. I hope so because then I can recover
Hello Dr yo !
My neck pain is less than before. I do exercises whith cervical and eyes mouvements. But i find that when i moove a lot my neck it get inflamed and that increase dizziness.
Si i am always in the doubt that my dizziness come between my neck or my brain....maybe both of them?
And Can you tell me your opinion about the atlas therapy...and the rule of this first vertebra ?
Your job is Amazing...i never thank you enougth.
I know you have so many doubts about this. My view is that this is a brain/nervous system dizziness rather than your neck! Many people have issues in the neck with the first vertebra or others, and they do not have dizziness. Dizziness is an "opinion" of your brain, so my question is always why your brain's opinion is that you are in danger.
Hello. First of all you are the best! I would like to ask you a question about bbpv. I had bbpv in two months ago and my doctor did the epley thing and symptom cc. Can I go on using treadmill? Does treadmill cause bbpv? Your answer is crucial for me, thanks.
*symptoms disappeared.
Ask Dr. Yo: can I use a treadmill, bike or other cardio equipment while recovering from dizziness? th-cam.com/video/DRLMKH8rtCU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Rgcfa5Ve1_1JhLw1
Hello I have started watching your you tube videos… this specific video is identical to what I’m going through! I got a bad case of positional vertigo and have been checking obsessively. The last 3 days I’m trying not to check because I was thinking it was making my symptoms worse. I was getting vertigo every two months as before it was maybe twice a year. could I possibly be causing my crystals to float around even after my vertigo is gone? I’m also having dizziness everyday but not vertigo.
Hi there! Probably not. Most of the time, doing the maneuver over and over and checking it will not do anything other than reinforce to your brain that this could potentially be a source of threat. Most people’s crystals resolve with doing the exercise once or twice.
Hi, great video! I have a question. Five months ago I got diagnosed with bppv. During those four months I have been doing reposition maneuvers with my physio multiple times, twice a week. It started with being in both my left horizontal canal and right posterior canal. I have been treated countless times where the crystals seem to move from one place to another. Some days it showed bppv in one place, next time a different place, a week later two different places etc. It was exhausting. I did feel a tiny bit better the day of doing the maneuvers but there wasn’t any improvement overall. I’ve only had the typical spinning sensation once, at the beginning of all this. Just feeling of rocking, swaying, dragging/halfway spinning.A month later I got diagnosed with a damage to my vestibular nerve and pppd. Since then the physio have found bppv three times. I am currently doing rehabilitation for this. But I am so confused and wondering if its truly bppv, I’m also scared the rehabilitation won’t get me better if I keep getting bppv. Is there anything I can do to prevent getting bppv again? What should I do?
I am so, so sorry. This sounds like a total nightmare, Sarah. I also wonder if it is BPPV. Positional vertigo can occur without “crystals” and it may be the result of the ear weakness and neural circuit conditions associated with ongoing fear/stress/symptoms.
I am wondering if you can get better from BPV if you don't get the Eply manuver done? I don't want a therapist moving my neck like that because of neck issues. I heard eventually the crystal dissolves on it own
Yes, this is correct! Often BPPV resolves on its own.
Can long term dizziness be caused by middle ear infection? How would you dx? Ty
Middle ear infections can cause dizziness, so if there is an active middle ear infection, that needs to be treated by a medical professional and resolved in order to recover. If dizziness persists beyond the expected healing time and there is no more infection, all the techniques on my channel apply.
In regards to pppd spinning dizziness would it work the same as bppv.. as in time frame and how to help it stop in the moment?
BPPV has a physical cause so it's a different strategy vs neural circuit issues. BUt often positional dizziness is not BPPV.
Español!! Hola!! Lo mismo que sucede con el pppd sucede con los mareos continuos por ansiedad ?
Es el mismo fenómeno, sólo que con un nombre diferente.
Woke up and switched positions in bed, and got a terrible vertigo attack. I’m certain it was bppv, it scared me badly since I’m already dealing with pppd. I’ll try some maneuvers for the bppv.
So sorry, Elena! You are more susceptible to BPPV when you have PPPD (the inner ear is a pretty delicate structure). BPPV is easily cured and it will not worsen your PPPD. Megan had many episodes of BPPV and is still doing so much better. th-cam.com/video/TkdCv-cadis/w-d-xo.html
@@TheSteadyCoach “it will not worsen your PPPD,” I’ll keep that in mind. I feel like it increased my anxiety again, I barely got any sleep last night. I have to focus on bringing down my anxiety, I was doing great last week.
Hi Dr Yo, I have a random question. I haven’t been able to sneeze since the day I commented on this video which was 2 weeks ago. That day which I got a vertigo attack and my anxiety increased badly. I’ve been getting the urge to sneeze but haven’t been able to. Could it be an anxiety issue? I’m really concerned but don’t want to look online for answers, I don’t want to scare myself again.
Elena, this sounds like an anxiety related symptom (assuming, of course, that all your medical tests have come back normal). If your anxiety is heightened due to the worry about BPPV, that is a potential explanation.
Hey Dr Yonit. Since 2 days I am having that feeling of couple of seconds when I lay down left or right. But when I move my eyes while In that position without moving my body I still feel the dizziness. I was diagnosed with PPPD, thats why I am doing the VOR. So this symptom is new to me since 2 days. I am worried sick. I still am dizzy while walking or sitting, just dont get that rush when laying down. Could BBPV be reason behind it? I hate it here :( I feel so lost. I am scared if I do the manuever It will get worse for me. I also doing 2 new excercises since 5 days. What is ur suggestion? Thank you!
Sagi, of course I cannot make a diagnosis without seeing you, but this does not sound like BPPV at all. Stick to what your therapist has suggested!
Hello! I've an unilateral vestibular Hypofunction in my left ear (58% canal paresis), and I do get dizzy for a bit after neck movements and also positional changes, but there's no spinning sensation or nystagmus. I also have this persistent floating feeling that kinda waxes and wanes throughout the day. Do you think they can be caused by that unilateral weakness? Vestibular therapists aren't really a thing in my area so I'm doing vestibular exercises on my own with help from the internet. Thanks in advance for taking your time to read this!
Hi there, yes, those symptoms can definitely be the result of an uncompensated (aka the brain has not yet adapted) vestibular weakness. Vestibular exercises would be the first stop for you- I do have a video though on how to tell the difference between issues caused by a weakness and issues that are more of a neural circuit problem: th-cam.com/video/J9ia2XR-qB8/w-d-xo.html
@@TheSteadyCoach Thanks a ton for your reply! This gives me so much hope that my condition is in fact, well defined and I can definitely work towards recovery
Hi if I feel dizzy while looking down n gets better as I change my position. Which canal is the most effective? N which exercise do you recommend
Hi Dr. Yo,
During the last 3 years, I have had 4 bppv episodes. The first one was really severe (left side). The next 2 were milder (same left ear). The latest one (this time right ear) was really severe as well. I did the epley which stopped the spinning. Is it possible that the subsequent episodes become less severe over time? I am actually traumatized by my latest episode.. on top of dealing with pppd.. I am terrified that another severe episode will hit me anytime.
I’m so sorry, I know that spinning vertigo is an incredibly frightening sensation. So interestingly, when I worked at a more conventional clinic, I would see people with BPPV all the time and most of them were not hugely bothered by it. No one loved it, of course, and they wanted it to go away, but they did not have big fight or flight responses to it and they coped with the symptoms more easily. So- the sensations of BPPV are never pleasant, but as you learn to be even slightly less terrified of them, your brain will not turn up the volume dial so high if you have them. The brain volume dial is a part of what makes them so intense for people who have PPPD.
I have a very tight neck with SCM muscles that seem to be very fatigued. Some of my dizziness symptoms seem to come from neck movements and sometimes from the spine. I'm hearing more and more about cervicogenic dizziness. Does anyone else have experience with this? I think my case was triggered by poor posture, long periods of time standing at a computer and also severe stress.
Hi Christopher, I have a video on this topic that may interest you th-cam.com/video/Mjt67Ab6XQ8/w-d-xo.html
Dr Yo, can I have both bppv and pppd? I usually also notice that pppd gets worse after vertigo flare. Do you think pppd worsens because of the fear or vertigo and because I look for the symptoms? I’ve been on this for 16 years and it settles down, hasn’t completely gone away, but sometimes it comes back more intense after a vertigo flare. Please help Dr. Also is pppd and circuit dizziness the same??
PPPD and neural circuit dizziness are 100% the same thing. BPPV often precedes PPPD and is more common in people with PPPD. Yes, it increases brain hypervigilance and focus on symptoms.
I m hina.i have dizziness for an year.i take physiotherapy for 5 months.i feel 80 percent better.but now my symtom comes back.i.e dizziness heaviness in sub occipital region .Xray shows upper cervical.i have nausea.palpitation blurr vision chest heaviness.chocking. doctor says it is due to anxiety. i m almost bedridden.please doctor yonit tell me.whether i should take antidepressant.to overcome anxiety.
Hi Hina, I have a video explaining my thoughts on this. I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. th-cam.com/video/NLnSNCpewh4/w-d-xo.html
Hello, I'd like to ask if it's normal that: the morning after I wake up to walk the dog and lie down again, I start to feel dizzy on both sides. Within one minute it stops and then it doesn't happen again. It could be a one-time BPPV like this. It doesn't happen again during the day. Thank you for your reply
This sounds like it could be BPPV- only way to know for sure would be to get checked by a vestibular PT! But I would expect BPPV to happen ANY time you are in the position. If it ONLY happens at a certain time but not other times you are in the same position, that sounds more like neural circuit dizziness.
Hey Dr Yonit! Sagi here als usual. I have to tell you that I feel so sad. The last few week my Pppd got lot better with breathing techniques and VRT and I started to go out again. Last night I had bppv out of sudden and it crashed me whole. Is it possible to have pppd and bppv at same time?? How did that happen, everything was getting better. I did the epley manuever and It stopped Shorlty after. It made me rethink everThing and question everything. I just feel totally exhausted and lost. My anxiety got high up. :(
Hi Sagi, I'm sorry to hear that frightened you. BPPV can happen to anyone, but it's more likely to happen to someone whose brain is in "threat mode" because the ear's fluid system balance can be altered by stress. This does NOT mean a permanent setback or anything to worry about. Try to stay calm. PPPD can happen after BPPV, but 99.99% of the time, it does not, and you are already ahead of the game by understanding how stress is affecting you.
@@TheSteadyCoach thank you for ur answering. I am just so afraid it can happen again and it just messed me up.. All this healing process is so hard on me and it’s been months, I just not fair anymore that I am going through this with so many challenges. I am just so sad.. 💔
I just experienced the same thing Sagi. I have pppd and have felt so much better these past days. A vertigo attack hit me out of nowhere as I was switching positions on bed, crazy spinning and I freaked out. Just wanted to let you know that you’re not alone.
If you got a concussion, had BPPV and dealt with it for 2 months because you didn't know it was treatable, found help and got it cured with the epley maneuver and haven't dealt with BPPV again, but still deal with random dizziness sensations inside the head without eye movements or anything, could this be permanent or is it treatable? I could be having a great stretch of days and bam ill get a random dizziness inside my head for a few seconds that throws me into a complete panic attack for the rest of the day. I've been to vestibular therapists several times who said there is nothing wrong with me anymore and this is just trauma and anxiety. But I still feel really off :(
Hi Ariel, so sorry to hear what you're going through. This is completely treatable and I have seen MANY people get better from it. You are not alone. If you watch the Chronic Dizziness Stories series, you will hear from many others with similar stories who are getting better.
@@TheSteadyCoach omg thank you so much. I seriously thought this was permanent. I really appreciate you
hey dr Yo. i have a question about bppv! always when I lie down and close my eyes I feel like my bed is flying like Aladdin's carpet, or like my bed is spinning, but when I open my eyes I'm just swaying not spinning actually. This spinning sensation happens only when i lay down eyes closed can this be a new symptom of ncd or bvvp??? also have head pressure
It may go away after 30 seconds but when you walk with it or whatever it's horrible really horrible. Or is that not bppv?
I do have the vertigo spinning and also have the problem walking when I have it.
Even sitting i would feel so off balance.
Do you think it's a combination?
I have off balance feelings all the time bit I think it's related to the fear.
I dread bppv so much, it really traumatized me when I got it the first time and ever since had it several times and i fear it every night I go to bed and never lie down during the day
The exercise does help but I get such bad panic attacks ... I was even afraid listening to this video because it triggers me so bad to hear and think about bppv.
Is there anything I can do for the anxiety?
Thank you for all your work 🪷🪷🪷🪷
It can affect walking but generally people are most affected by sudden movements and head turns. It sounds like a combination- just like you're saying, related to the fear. If you've a;ready seen the video on fear, stay tuned, I have a new one coming out about worries.
@@TheSteadyCoach really looking forwart to it. I just started your course and I am really thankful for all you do for us :-)
Can an intense emotional/nervous system issue cause BPPV?
There is a relationship between stress and BPPV. Stress adversely affects the ability of the inner ear to work effectively.
Mam, from past one month i am feeling like unsteadiness when i try to stand in both feet. I have tendency like my floor is moving.
Earlier it was boat like sensation when i was like in my bed. But now slowly this symptom is resolving.
And currently i am facing like my floor is moving.
It is not present when i am running walking or driving.
And also. My vitamin d3 level was 12 ( extremely low)
..
Is it pppd. Bppv or what???????
I always have the “ off” feeling . It used to get really bad I’ve been to every doctor here is . Vision therapy. ENT .chiropractor. 😏
I'm sorry to hear you're going through this. You'll see you have this in common with many of the people on my channel. I have lots of advice here on this channel about my approach to getting better.
