    I’ve been doing this type of breathing for over 47 years when I’m upset. When I had my three sons I used it along with some other breathing. When I had my third son , one nurse commented to the other one about how quiet I was in the delivery room. It’s a wonderful and effective remedy for stress and anxiety!

    I have VERY extreme daily anxiety and none of the breathing techniques I tried in the past, including ones similar to this, ever really worked very well for me. But, I just discovered something that works MUCH better for me personally and I'm SO excited to share it. I breathe in and KEEP breathing in as much as I can, with small "gulps" of air until I can't breathe in any more (blowing myself up like a balloon). Then I hold my breath for as long as I can (at least 30 seconds, but I know many people might not be able to go that long at first). Then I breathe out and slowly take several large breaths in and out. Then repeat. While I'm holding my breath, I can feel myself and my brain "slowing down", and I think that's what's helping the most. By the way, I got the idea of blowing myself up like a balloon from a youtube video named "15 Minute Full Body Stress Reset: Self-Care Fascial Maneuvers" by Human Garage TV.

    My biggest trouble with deep breathing is that when I’m stressed out my chest is tight so when I try to slow down or make my breathing deep, I get a sense of suffocation which makes me even more anxious. I don’t know how to remedy this

    • @TherapyinaNutshell
      @TherapyinaNutshell  4 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      OK, that's a great point, with panic attacks part of the problem is that you're trying to control the anxiety and the breathing and when you can't control the anxiety, then you create an escalating cycle. At that point, instead of practicing deep breathing, practice acceptance here's a book that teaches it: amzn.to/2uYXO5f

      Instead of trying to deep breathe, try breathing at whatever pace your body is asking for BUT make sure to blow our forcefully each time and *truly* empty your breathe out. Think of it as blowing air out from your abs , like if you were trying to blow out a giant fire

    I know this is an old clip but hopefully someone will see this ? I had a neuroendocrine tumor removed from my middle lobe of my right. I’ve always been anxious since I was nine years old, but having new health issues like cancer now causes me to have more anxiety. It’s a vicious cycle.! I already take an anti-anxiety medicine and I am still riddled with symptoms of anxiety. The biggest one for me is my diaphragm tightening up. I guess what it’s called and that’s how I found this video by googling. Why is my diaphragm tightening so hard I can’t breathe? And I found this! So I guess I’m having problems with my vagus nerve by what this lady is saying? But I know for a fact I do have cortisol issues histamine issues because that is what caused my cancer and I’m guessing that all of the stress I had an abuse as a child and then leaving someone with NPD… my body is trying to relax… but I can’t. Other than this video, does anyone have any other good suggestions? I do this exercise and it helps her a few minutes and I could be doing something relaxing and then it happens again and I’m not even aware of it. I’m just watching something on TV and it comes right back. It’s almost like that muscle or whatever it just clenches!! Anyone else? 😢

    • @ashleycook6025
      @ashleycook6025 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I'm no expert, so take these words with a grain of salt and don't over research, it'll just make you more anxious:
      Ask your doctors about POTS (NOT Pott's that's very different), panic, and PTSD.
      The first is a autonomic nervous problem regulating heart rate and blood pressure. I only know very little about it bc I just made a friend with it and wanted to know more about it. So I've only done surface research on it. It usually also manifests with sudden changes in posture as well (sitting to standing, laying down to sitting, stooping etc and vice versa)
      The second is just what it sounds like. Panic attacks and panic disorder doesn't care that you're not stressed *at that moment*. I've had panic attacks that feel like heart attacks... During times when I was actively enjoying myself. Went to the ER twice . Felt 20-40% better as soon as I said "hi" to the person working the reception desk...I was embarrassed, It sucks, but apparently it's a real medical event even if not always an emergency. I've had lesser ones in the past and not even realized that's what they were. Thought it was related to my ADHD...some I can just let happen and they pass, some I just need someone present to distract me or make me feel taken care of. But what works for you, any changes to medication, therapy etc, should be determined by you and **an expert**. Not a stranger on the Internet.
      The third one I just wrapped up a research essay for my psychology 1101, Intro to Psychology class. I chose the disorder because I have family and various friend and comrade ties to.
      **These DO NOT make me a subjective matter expert on PTSD.**
      Sometimes, our bodies can start responding to physical sensation or anything remotely resembling something from a traumatic event(s) even though we don't feel triggered, scared or nervous. Sometimes our fight or flight reflex kicks in JUST BECAUSE if we experienced trauma that we didn't process or because we're FINALLY relaxed and safe and we don't have to be brave and centered to deal with the danger anymore. Medical care isn't *dangerous* per se, but our bodies and minds know they're going to absolutely /suck/, come with risk and treat them like danger, and you may have been scared for your life or quality of life...there were definitely time while being abused you felt your body or life were in danger, threats of sexual violence or receiving or witnessing sexual violence or violence to others also count. THAT fear for your safety is a textbook onset event for PTSD. If this IS the case (again, this has to be diagnosed by an expert) you're going to be ok. Medical trauma and abuse trauma, even if symptoms manifest later, are valid source events for PTSD and CPTSD. It may have been the various experiences over all these years adding up as well (CPTSD). This is the same disorder soldiers who have experienced combat, domestic violence survivors, and survivors of major disasters are known for overcoming. You're not the first, your doctors won't (shouldn't 😤💢) dismiss how you feel. Trust me nothing you tell them is something they probably haven't heard. If this is what you are experiencing, it means you have survived something (or multiple things) absolutely harrowing. Seeking help from qualified experts, going to intensive therapy, probably a modification to your current medication regimen, things proven to help, are absolutely steps you should take. If this is what's going on, it's a lot of mental health heavy lifting and you should NOT do it alone.
      None of these should be done alone. You're enough, but sometimes we all need a hand.
      Prognosis for these conditions, from what I can tell, is pretty good. Most people live completely normal feeling and seeming lives with the proper support and... AGAIN... Proper diagnosis by a qualified expert.
      I NEED you to understand everything is going to be ok.
      You. Deserve. Help.
      ❤✨Nothing you said or did disqualifies you from receiving help. No matter how insignificant you think an onset event is; if it is panic or PTSD, you deserve help. ✨❤
      Even if none of these is the answer, you're going to make it. You are very resilient, very strong, and very brave. You have probably had to be all of these things for a very long time and your body and mind are exhausted from constantly being stressed. This is a valid concern and your doctors should be listening to your issues and providing you with proper support; YOU ARE ENTITLED TO IT, DEMAND IT.

      By breathing deep you're teaching your body and mind that you can take longer to breathe. Hopefully patience will help you greatly. As a side note stay social. Chat with your friends and family as often as possible to create further stabilty and stillness in your life.

    Last few weeks or more I am constantly sighing and taking in deep breaths as if I’m hyperventilating…I think it’s due to my anxiety and stress. I have been dealing with anxiety since I was a teen. Why do I constantly sigh and take these deep breaths? It feels awful and it’s super annoying and very uncomfortable. Feels like my lungs can’t get enough air? I am wondering if this is a normal anxiety/stress response? Thx

    I was looking for a TH-cam video that would demonstrate breathing from the diaphragm so that I could send it to a friend. I like the comments that you made in your video, however I think it would be more effective and you could demonstrate by example how deep breathing from the diaphragm moves the belly in and out by putting the camera on your whole upper body and showing a side view of it.

Which helps us to calm down our nervous system , In my research, I found that L- theanine supplements can help us to calm our nervous system. It's not the case that we take L- theanine And then we just become anxious. L- theanine can only help us to calm our nervous system. And the calming of our nervous system is up to our practice ..

    Hi! So I’ve decided to start doing diaphragmatic breathing for real for my anxiety but it seems like I get anxious while doing (I’ve tried doing it in the past but I’ve given up because of how it made me feel anxious). I’m now on day 2 of it (I do it for 10 minutes a day) - yesterday a lot of anxious feelings came up but I told myself to just breathe through it and it helped (even though they came up a few times). Today was a little better but I still had anxious moments. Why does this happen?

I ask because I have never had problems getting blood tested but today I had a major vasovagal attack and nearly lost consciousness while getting blood taken. I was doing diaphragmatic breathing before blood was taken and did not know if it contributed to the vagal nerve malfunction that dropped blood pressure and heart rate. Any thoughts?

    • @cecropiathesilkwing
      @cecropiathesilkwing 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’m no expert in any means but I think it helps you to take in a much larger, deeper breath. And the more air you can get in, the more effective it will be when it comes to calming you down. I saw some other comments saying they felt like they weren’t getting in as much air as they thought and it was giving them trouble. What I usually do is breathe out and exhale any excess air through a normal breath, then take in the deep one. I also tend to get nervous when using a breathing exercise in public so it can also help to focus on a few normal breaths until I feel ready to begin. I’m also trying to make this a habit before bed so I know how and when to use the techniques. Hope this helped you to understand a bit better!
