Thank you for putting this out there. I am seeing this 5 years after recording. I am going through the same thing, but with different circumstances. I hope you are doing well now.
Every day, there is an instance when I suddenly feel like being trapped. I am glad to find people here in youtube who are sharing about it. It doesn't make the feeling go away but it helps to know that some people can relate to what I am going through. Thank you.
Yes, I go through the same thing. I am in a situation that I hate with no way out at this time. The only thing keeping me sane is that I know this won't last forever. Thank you for posting your reply.
I’m stuck at home and I barely get out. I’m hoping college will change that but I’m really scared since I suck at making friends and the ones I do make aren’t super health relationships. Thank you for the video. It helped center me.
this is the first time ever I admit this, but I too feel trapped and suffocated right now, for different reasons perhaps but the feeling seems similar. and with all the help im getting from family and friends, sometimes it still feels like the world is against me. you're not alone, thank you for sharing, I hope things have gotten better
Society tells us that we should get married, get a mortgage and other debts and financially and legally chain ourselves to people and situations. But not everyone is designed for that and that's okay. You can love without being tied together, you can have a home without trapping yourself in one place, the world is vast and full of places and people, and life is short. You shouldn't feel forced to do things just because other people tell you you should. And depression can be your brain just telling you your situation needs to change. Live life the way that you need and want to.
That is so great that you shared this. Also you should never "Make" yourself feel something you don't feel. If you're not happy, you're not happy. You feel this for a reason. Wish you the best in dealing with all that comes your way, and remember - It will all pass! :)
Dude I can relate I have dug my way out of the pit of addiction an incarceration to now have 3 beautiful children and a loving old lady we to recently have moved into a new home and were doing good on paper but I'm still miserable I'm still filled with negativity Idk what I'm saying but yea I've tried the mental health route 3 separate times from my teens to my early 20s been on medicine several times with group therapy etc nothing is working I'll get to a goal I've set an have no reaction jus more anxiety because I've completed this now what's next... I'm similar to a mouse on the wheel running running running but never going anywhere if that makes sense or not ehh who cares I just had to say that I get you bro
I feel you, lucky i dont have many commitments. Iv ran away lots of times, lost my accommodation and ended up on the streets drinking ect. Im sober and living in temp accommodation now.. to scared to speak to neighbors to scared to speak to mental health services and got a constant nagging in my head to run away. Im on lyrica aswell and it does fuck all
I think your thoughts on switching jobs and possibly getting off your meds if they aren’t benefiting you are healthy choices. I also suffer with anxiety and my therapist told me “the best way to tackle anxiety is to challenge it”. Don’t do something that will give you an anxiety attack but baby steps to a healthy you. ❤️ switching jobs seems like a great start! 😊
You've gotta bounce man go live your life MOVE out asap forget the mortgage and start again by LIVING ALONE. Since Living alone I've litrally been on cloud 9 it's so liberating and calming to be free to relax properly
People forget it isn't even choosing between totally alone or married with mortgage and kids. You can still have a partner and love and all that good stuff. There are other ways of doing it (seperate homes, unmarried, LTR, etc). A lot of people prefer this. Just find someone compatible with what you need and be happy.
Happy New Year to you my brother, and congrats on your 1 year anniversary! I stumbled upon your channel recently while I was searching for help, and I just wanted to say that I admire your courage to be open and honest in your videos. Humility is very important and it is most certainly one of your strengths. I connect with how you feel about being trapped and just wanting to run away sometimes, and I am also alone most of the time. I live with my family but I have issues with connecting with them and letting them into my life. I wish I could go out there and meet people. I wish I could build meaningful relationships with people. I wish I didn't have to wear a "mask" to hide who I really am. However, from watching your videos I've learned that I'm not alone! And you aren't alone either. I hope nothing but the best is waiting for you in 2018. :)
Thank you for the good thoughts, and happy new year to you too. Sharing is indeed caring. Throughout my life I have actually managed to connect with people, very few but also its also people I cant hold on to and make them stay. If you live with your family one thing you can try is connecting with them, specially brothers or sisters. If you need to talk let me know
Just Wanted To Say Hi☺, Congratulations On Owning A Home..Many People Only Dream Of That. Also On Your Marriage..Its A Beautiful Thing To Share Your Life With Someone..Many People Don't Even Belive In Marriage Now A Days..Which Is Really Sad I Think. You Work From Home?!..The Dream Job. I Either Want A Job Where I Can Travel The World, Or Stay At Home.. Total Freedom😊. I Hope You Start To Feel Better. 2018 Is Around The Corner.." The Power In A Year!" 😉
Thank you Veronica. Yeah its sad when I complain about so many positives but as after making this video i keep thinking maybe it might be the med I am on. I am trying each day. Working from home can be great but after 2 years I sometimes do need exposure to people and I wish I could interact with people more, the town I am in, I only know my wife. Thank you for your comment it made my day.
I will be getting off as of today to see if its that. It takes 75 hours for it to not to work and 5 days for it to leave the system. I hope that it works.
Don’t know if you saw my comment before. Otherwise, here it is again. Hope to hear from you! Hello. I know you mentioned in your video about wanting to talk if people reached out? Don't know if you would still like too, but please let me know. I've struggled with similar symptoms and diagnoses, and know it would help to find a community. Aileen G.
One word, porn. That's the number one thing that I used to feel better about felling shitty all the time with anxiety. Going for long periods without having sex and using porn is what changed me the most. I don't know you and what you do but if you haven't tried it give it a spin.
Islam has all the answers. Anxiety stems from sins. I’ve had anxiety for about 9 months. It was tough. Sometimes it was very intense. But the Quraan helped me. It is a cure for every illness especially the one of the heart ❤️
Sounds like to me she is sort of manipulating you. She could have said this before your marriage, she wants validation that she is better than the new girl. That’s all. You are the anxiety sufferer, if she knew that she wouldn’t pull this stunt. And if she knew that just makes it worse.
Kay Bee Right now my anxiety has been in overdrive. I went off the abilify and went back to effexor which deal with general anxiety. But right now I am dealing day by day. I havent had much desire to move.
Suerte13 I'm so sincerely sorry. I commend you for your awareness. Living consciously and with intention is the first step to healing. How you do this is by asking, where you are leading from. "Am I leading from a healthy place or is my response, reaction from fear, old wounds, crossing boundaries, etc." Best wishes.
You are over intellectualizing most things. Isolation is earned. Social norms have nothing to do with happiness. And you care too much about, what seems to me, most things. I understand, truly.
I'm polyamorous and any monogamous relationship makes me feel trapped it's the same with all poly people maybe consider it the other thing to consider is personality types INTP tend to get very stuck in their head sometimes to the point where I feel like I can't move or do anything, but yeah anxiety med wise the only one that works for me is venlafaxine and diazepam but you will find the right combo for you I promise just takes a bit of work. I have generalized anxiety disorder but the other factors mean that its a recipe for disaster. I hear you bro and if any of these factors are the same for you when you look into them I'd love to share what my discoveries were still not quite there yet but we are always growing and changing sometimes doing something very random or out of character also helps me get out of a rut.
Thank you for putting this out there. I am seeing this 5 years after recording. I am going through the same thing, but with different circumstances. I hope you are doing well now.

Sometimes it's feverish too
Thank you for sharing. I’ve been feeling trapped in my life and body too.
I feel like I’m brain and I look at my body and world things like how everything goes
"I'm living a situation that people would tell me easily that I'm supposed to be happy with."
I felt that
I’m stuck at home and I barely get out. I’m hoping college will change that but I’m really scared since I suck at making friends and the ones I do make aren’t super health relationships.
Thank you for the video. It helped center me.
This comment is old but I felt this 😔

How are you doing now a year later?
I’m so glad you shared your story. You were so transparent and brave
I hear you loud and clear man. I hope you’re doing well, seeing this is 3 years old. Shit isn’t easy but I guess that’s supposed to be exciting.
Yo why do i feel like im in a dream and i feel trapped and i keep getting constant deja vus
Your hyper sensitive to the tangent universe. Find a totem and grab it when ever you feel what you do to remind you that you are here in the moment.
No he has depersonalisation disorder which is a result of anxiety
I feel u
I feel you, lucky i dont have many commitments. Iv ran away lots of times, lost my accommodation and ended up on the streets drinking ect. Im sober and living in temp accommodation now.. to scared to speak to neighbors to scared to speak to mental health services and got a constant nagging in my head to run away.

I hope you are doing better now.
Hello! I have APD as well and want you to know you're not alone in this!
Thank you so much. It means a lot.
What is APD?
thank you for sharing. I just found you and it is so helpful Thank you. It is so corageous of you, so bold, and you are moving, that is great.
ps. I dont know if you are still available to talk, but I would like. How to contact you?
Study how brain functions, you will get more introspection and more control.
I think your thoughts on switching jobs and possibly getting off your meds if they aren’t benefiting you are healthy choices. I also suffer with anxiety and my therapist told me “the best way to tackle anxiety is to challenge it”.

Suerte13 I Think You May Be Right.. I've Heard Not So Pleasant Stories About Abilify.🤔
I will be getting off as of today to see if its that. It takes 75 hours for it to not to work and 5 days for it to leave the system. I hope that it works.
@@Suerte13 How did the getting off work for you brother?
How are you doing now?
Don’t know if you saw my comment before. Otherwise, here it is again. Hope to hear from you!

hey! aileen. hi there, can we have a conversation?
there's something we can share. please let me know, if you r here.
One word, porn. That's the number one thing that I used to feel better about felling shitty all the time with anxiety. Going for long periods without having sex and using porn is what changed me the most. I don't know you and what you do but if you haven't tried it give it a spin.
I kinda got confused, are you saying to use porn or going against it? I have used in the past but not much anymore since my sex drive went down.
Nonono, DON'T use it. That's what I meant
Islam has all the answers. Anxiety stems from sins. I’ve had anxiety for about 9 months. It was tough. Sometimes it was very intense. But the Quraan helped me. It is a cure for every illness especially the one of the heart ❤️
Hey, curious where your life is at now? Any change?
Kevin Funk Hey. I am alive. But yeah I wanted to make an update on that cause its been kinda rough. thank you for asking
You ever start clawing at your face, praying to no one that you can be free from your prison of a body?
How are you today
Sounds like to me she is sort of manipulating you. She could have said this before your marriage, she wants validation that she is better than the new girl. That’s all. You are the anxiety sufferer, if she knew that she wouldn’t pull this stunt. And if she knew that just makes it worse.
Do you have anxiety about sex?
Kay Bee I do. performance anxiety
Suerte13. How do you cope?
Kay Bee Right now my anxiety has been in overdrive. I went off the abilify and went back to effexor which deal with general anxiety. But right now I am dealing day by day. I havent had much desire to move.
