This is wonderful. My girlfriend has bad anxiety and usually I don't have a problem knowing what to say but I'm always seeking out a way to make her feel better.
Why does everyone brag aboht their girlfriend? Like bro...tf? It makes others feel so jealous. Recently broke up with my boyfriend and guess tf what? Now i have unstable intense anxiety. Im done. Im going crazy. Wtf? Stop telling me to move on! Leave me alone!
As another person who suffers from anxiety.... just having someone text me something random to distract me or having someone just sit with me and just be there... not even really to talk.... especially if I cant talk or just don't wanna talk about it.... that helps a lot.
I know it depends on the person, some people it makes them anxious to have no one talk but for me sometimes just knowing someone is there to comfort you quietly even when no words are exchanged it really does comfort you because it's just... "We can talk when you're ready, but we don't have to."
2:48 - EXACTLY. i had a panic attack at school and one of the teachers did half of them helping me, then another teacher asked me if i wanted a hug, and she just just me a huge bear hug and made me feel better on top of the other teacher calming me down
Start by bringing it up, nothing ventured nothing gained. You know your parents best so its up to you on how you go about it and where those personal boundaries lay so be careful but yeah totally go for it
Literally the worst things you can say are "Calm down" "Everything's okay" (especially when you don't know what they're going through) "Don't be anxious/depressed" (especially if they have been diagnosed with anxiety/depression or have many symptoms)
I mean.. I don’t know if I actually have anxiety, so I never jump to the conclusion that I do, but when I do tend to get overly-anxious of unreasonable things, my mum always tells me to calm down and it’s not the nicest thing when you just wanna say “if I could, I would”
Just ignore them. That's their own stupid thing. You are not stupid for having your feelings and worries. You have to know that your feelings are valid.
"Like a physical reminder that your not alone" I started crying to this. Because lately I've needed a hug and don't want to ask for one because everybody thinks I hate hugs/touchy stuff. But in the moment, sometimes its comforting.
The last one is very helpful! I often say "I'm speechless" when people vent to me, especially when their problems are quite hard to comprehend/solve. And I always feel bad about it. I feel like I couldn't connect with them. Plus, saying "I'm speechless" seems like I don't want to try to empathize. Now I know what to say :)
Lol definetly, therapy never helped me honestly. I don’t like talking to people about my problems unless they’re an extremely close friend that I trust
@@The-Legend-of-P nah I was like 7-8 when I went to therapy, I told people back then but still it didn’t seem to help at all now therapy would be much worse bc talking to people is hard
@@m1n1.m4gg1t then sorry for judging so quickly das on me. And yeah it sucks talkingto people about it. I just realized that if I’m like paying or insurance or something then I might as well just get over the hurdle of telling someone. It seemed to help but sometimes not and I just internalize on what I choose to be helpful. It’s hard to be open to someone you don’t trust though.
Just a cute moment I encountered ^^ I was so anxious and paranoid about a task a few days ago. My anxiety was so strong that I couldn’t even rest or eat, that was until a white moth flew in my house. I caught it in my hands and I was looking at it in awe. For a good while i forgot my anxiety and loved the time with the cute moth. That moth really made me happy 🥰
When my step father passed away in 2012, a moth started to hang around in our apartment. Mum believed that my stepfathers spirit was with that moth. Mum was quite comforted with it being around. Take your moth as a sign of something beautiful.
Oh my gosh that’s so wholesome, I’ve done that with those little Rosy maple moths. Once when I was having bad anxiety one was perched on a leaf next to me and I watched it for a little while, then picked it up. It like, circled on my hand and then nuzzled it’s ADORABLE little moth face into my palm- it was so fluffy and precious-
I still have trouble being there for my housemate who has severe anxiety and sometimes I struggle to be there for him because I too have anxiety and I am a highly sensitive person. This is a good reminder, to just ask what he needs from me and I'm here to listen.
@@Psych2go I’ve cut off ALL contact with them now, and found some best friends that know how to respond when I’m having anxiety about stuff - they know when this happens. but still am dealing with depression and anxiety. But I can get past that
Please if you can, get away from them, friends are not supposed to hurt and belittle you. I'm sure you'll find people who love you and appreciate you, but with them you may be in danger. If you need someone to talk to, I'm willing to listen. Have a beautiful day
I'm stuck within a situation where someone I care for gets anxious around me. I'm really anxious to let them know that everything's alright though, and I also want to understand how they feel. We both have our problems. I wish I could've done better.
"Consent is key" this is very true, especially for those of us who have not been allowed space for self determination, and it allows the person experiencing anxiety to determine what kind of support is helpful in the moment
I disagree with most of these and I'd like to give my opinion on each, as I do suffer with anxiety You have my attention (or) I am listening this one can be super helpful however If you say this please watch your tone, because if it's a muttered "yeah, im listening" It can lead them to believe you are being burdened by them, and that Is the last thing we want I'd replace this with "I'm here to listen" or "If you want you can tell me about it" What can I do to help you? this one leads me to feel like a burden, even if it's "is there anything I can do to help you?" or "any way I can help?" honestly I'd just scrap this one, I in no way want to inconvenience anyone when I'm spiraling. Hey let's go for a walk. We can talk about it, or we can just get some fresh air The last thing I want to do right now is go outside, I'm dealing with my mind, I'm scared, I'm paranoid. I've been here with this one and It literally just led me to just being afraid for my life for like a solid hour. I'd replace this with "wanna play some (insert game they like here) ?"
Is it okay if I give you a hug? This one I love, this one makes me very happy, however doesn't really work over the internet or in a quarantine I'm here for you, no matter what is happening no complaints here, it feels great not to feel alone Would advice be helpful or should I just listen? Watch your tone with this one. this can come off sarcastic really quick. any hint of frustration and I'll feel like the worlds biggest Jerk I might replace that one with "would you like some advice? If not I can continue to listen" I don't know what to say, but I'm here for you A very sweet yet hollow feeling It's rather bittersweet but that one is just me.
Thank you for sharing, like so much. I'm watching through some of these vids so I can be more prepared when things come up with my friend. I tried the "what do you want to do?" or something similar one time and it didn't help--I found that decision making when she's already stressed isn't really effective. But yeah, these all seem like things you need to make sure you genuinely mean or else it'll just come off as rude. I'll take note of that going forward.
@@taytaythehufflepuff8532 if they want any advice to help the panic, some other tricks I've learned over the years. ask them to 1. breathe in 4 seconds, hold 7 seconds, breathe out for 8 seconds. repeat 3 - 5 times. 2. name 5 things you can see, 3 things you can hear, 4 things you can touch, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste. 3. sipping slowly on some nice cold water helps me often. (Doing this as I'm typing because I'm having a bad anxiety day) 4. try talking to friends about anything, doesn't matter what the subject is. just go on a little conversational journey. it can be about what they are panicked over, or it can be about the newest thing the're into.. hope some of these can help :D, Anxiety is a tricky thing, and people seem to want people to just "get over it" but that's not how it works.
A panic attack is real..this is good .. let's talk about hyperventilating..."don't take a breath while counting to thirty.. it's ok if you make it to only 15. Again.hold . Count..as long as you can .. one more time..you will always get a deep breath because your body will take over..this has helped me so much. .
When I'm having a panic attack I have to be very careful with my breathing. If breathing feels wrong I slip back into hyperventilion or, at the least, utter panic.
@@Study_with_txt If I understand correctly, it’s when you breathe really short, quick breaths, which usually just cause you to not get as much oxygen as you should be getting. Usually a side effect of panic attacks, high stress, etc.
I have bad Anxiety, and It would be nice to hear these things, and for someone to let you talk to them without them talking, or reacting. Or, them telling me I’m perfectly fine, It will be okay, calm down, nothings wrong, or are you okay. It really just makes the problem worse. Mainly because some of these things I said make it seem like we have a problem, and it’s easy to fix. But, we just can’t. But, I hope to, one day, have someone in my life that will listen, and try to help like this when I need it. Thank you.
What advice would you give to someone who is trying to be a good supportive friend to someone with Anxiety? I've never dealt with it and don't quite understand but when I ask my friend questions to understand it more they get distant and aren't really good about communicating how they feel.
@@spooky1487 Don’t ask questions about it, thinking about what your dealing with can, most times, make the problem worse. Also, people don’t experience it all the time. One moment the day is going great, and the next, you feel like you’re dying. And, most times the person doesn’t even know what’s going on themselves. Maybe try asking if they need anything, or silly random questions, while in the panic. Try giving them some water. But, only do this towards the end of it, or when it is just beginning. Just, don’t leave them alone, don’t try to reassure them that everything is alright, and just be there to comfort them when it’s happening. But, DO NOT ask ANY questions about it. Answering these questions makes the person feel stupid or like they’re faking the whole thing. I hope this helps any.
@@riverly7275 Definitely helpful but probably too late. I've already done most of the things you mentioned not to do because they make logical sense but emotions aren't supposed to make sense so that would explain why she's been distant probably :/ Ig I'll know for next time :( Thank you so much for the reply
As someone that has Anxiety all of these are pretty accurate, Especially the last point. Usually when i talk to someone about my Anxiety or Worries they tend to give me advices and comparison with what they've been dealing with, which didn't make me feel any better (｡ŏ﹏ŏ)
On number 2, it's important to follow through. I've heard this a lot, told people what I need, and found it was too difficult for them to do, even of it was as simple as knock on my door before entering, or pre comminocate items for meetings and it killed my faith in even the idea I can get help when I need it.
Don't you love it when people say they will listen and you could always talk to them but then they don't listen and make fun of you or get mad when you open up
Actually it's hard even to see people just walking towards me... So many things happen in my head that time like "how i should deal with them?" "What if they talk to me?" "What i must answer them if they asking?".... You know, like i don't wanna make them feel bad cause my anxiety... So, that time i just smile and that smile became weird😂 (Sorry bad english... Hope you understand what i mean...)
As a mini therapist with bad English, i saw both the title and thumbnail, thought the things i said to comfort others was actually wrong, but now i'm happy :')
It’s manufactured and it needs to stop! Social media algorithms and media push anxiety inducing stories and click bait. Plays on our deepest fears. Covid woke me up to this reality. Viruses have always killed old and unhealthy people, new viruses do it more effectively. A new virus makes its way into a nursing home and you will see massive carnage suddenly. This is nothing new or sensational until the media makes it so. Same with “climate crisis” the earth climate changes, always has, it’s not necessarily an existential threat. If it wasn’t for the media, none of us would’ve cared about Covid, and we wouldn’t even think the climate was an issue either it’s all manufactured.
I also suffered from anxiety for almost 2 years and had no one to talk about it because I was afraid of everyone, and no one was close to me(that's what I thought). Now I am great and in the journey of making myself happy even in alone times and I don't want to see someone suffer like I did with anxiety. Thanks Psych2Go!
I’m have a SEVERE case of anxiety, I literally shake and cry till im so drained to the point of giving up everything. This would have been so help for all of my friends that didnt care about me
I knew someone who anxiety but unfortunately we aren’t friends anymore. I feel bad for her sometimes but I am not her friend anymore so things are different now. I tried to help her but she just kept pushing me away
Mmm I know how that be. My best friend has anxiety issues and has tried to convince me to leave them or to trick me out of being friends with them more times than I can count despite craving my company. I love them but it is something I definitely took notice of so I totally feel where you are coming from. People often can't accept love that they don't feel they deserve. It's sad to see but you can't make it change out of force of will. Anyways I wish you luck and I hope both of you are doing well wherever you are
Thanks for makeing this :) my friend has been struggling with anxiety and low self esteem I want to help so much but I never know how to say something they would believe. This helped :)
I'm noticing a common thread for each of these bits of advice: When someone is dealing with anxiety, you should be careful not to project your feelings and what you would do onto their situation. Not only is it impossible to get inside someone's head and know how they are truly feeling, but it is also disrespectful toward the person who is in need of help to put yourself before them. MAJOR props to the advice on physical comfort. Just because YOU want a hug doesn't mean that the person who is having an anxiety attack wants one.
#5...it's why I don't feel like I can talk to any of my friends online. I took a break from a group chat because it was too much and overwhelming. When I mentioned dealing with anxiety and depression, I was met with "We're here for you"...but I never hear from them anymore...and when I could really use them most...with friends like these, who needs enemies, right?
@@ridamdahiya6591 I'm sorry to hear you're dealing with something like that too. When I confronted them all about it, one gave me "I don't really talk to anyone", another gave me "I don't really talk to anyone except ______" and then the 3rd one didn't even give me a reason. The only person I'm not mad at or disappointed in is the one who 1st checked on me when I left and continued to do so afterwards. I keep deleting and reinstalling social media, I left the main chat room on Discord (still have a few that have at least 2 of them in them, and not many others). I keep logging out ofy sites too so I don't get passive-aggressive more. Not that they'd tell me they had a problem with it. You'd think I'd be able to let them all go, but I can't. I care too much about them, even though they clearly don't care about me. I hope you're able to find the right kind of people to surround yourself with. Seems like this channel might not be a bad start haha
Been in therapy for constantly seeking reassurance before and eventually you can't reassure them anymore. Just feeds into their anxiety thus making It worse.
Number 5 is why I don't trust anyone anymore( I'm trying to but my ptsd says no). If you have a loved one/ someone you care about you want to help, but have limits, just be honest and do what you are able to, they'll appreciate it. Any help/love/support is better then none.
Both my bf and I struggle with anxiety, so we have some of these in our arsenal already. It’s nice to see these phrases shared more, because it’s really important for somebody with anxiety to feel heard, valid, and in control.
I have a friend (I mostly help online) who has only me for an outlet, and it feels so validating that I am doing well in supporting them. I also have some issuses so I always worry if I am handling this right or and I over stepping bounderies. I feel both happy and proud that I am doing this right, even though I forget this and spirol into self hate. also sorry for the spelling error, dyslexsia is also a thing I struggle with.
Wish I could do all these to my friend who is suffering with anxiety right now but we are still in (some sort of) lockdown. Is there a way to show our support from afar? Sometimes I’m afraid they would think my words are empty.
My heart goes out to these people. I have a very thick skin so clearly words of affirmation is not a love language. My bf is a sufferer and just don’t know if I have the patience nor the time to “tip toe through the tulips” bc sometimes it is what it is.
I tell my mom about my anxiety. Judges me later. In fact, tells me I'm dramatic. She even uses it against me during an argument. My father just doesnt believe in it. If I talk about it, its weak. Its pathetic Sooo.... Edit: share your feelings in this comment, I'm reading all of them Edit a year later: My parents are getting a divorce, my mother left and is now with someone else. I feel so much better now 😌
My best friend is dealing with anxiety, and I really want to help her, but it seems like every time I ask if she’s ok, if she wants to talk about it… she always has to go. Idk if she’s purposely being evasive or if shes actually busy. I really hope she’s doing alright. I’ve really screwed up sometimes, and now that I think about it, I’ve been kind of saying the kind of thing that can be a little triggering for someone with anxiety. I screw everything up, and I feel really bad about that. Maybe it’s my fault that she doesn’t want to talk to me. Shit, that sounds really self-centered… idk anymore
The last one is literally the best one. Sometimes you just need someone to care for you even if they don’t know how. So them admitting that they want to help but don’t know what to say can be so comforting. Just to know that they are willing to be uncomfortable for you means a lot.
We can help people with anxiety,with our honesty,our unconditional love,help whenever is needed!!many many solutions to stop our mind thinking negatively all the time!!meditation makes perfect work,as also other solutions!!💕💕
5 is so true! It's so hard, when you are already on a bad place, and someone offers help, just to end up leaving you in the end.. Just be honest, if you feel like you can't truly handle the situation with someone that has anxiety, just don't lie to them..
Oh man, I've never been brought to tears by a video from you before, but MAN, advice that actually highlights that maybe hugging without consent can be a bad idea? Asking whether or not you want advice or not? HONESTY ABOUT NOT KNOWING WHAT TO SAY? Oh man, I teared up real bad. Thanks a ton mate, you guys are are wonderful
The info in this video also applies to supporting someone who is grieving. "Shut up and listen. Don't give advice. Nothing you have to say is as important as listening carefully. Don't be afraid of silence."
I always say 2, 5, and 7 (as needed) to my friends when they come to me for help. They know that even if I'm not able to help, I'm at least always there to support them, and it seems to put them at ease, and they consistently come to me to tall about their problems
This video was really nice:) As an anxious person i assure you that i would appreciate someone saying/doing such things for me:))) *[Hah if only i had friends:')]*
anxiety is a symptom of a larger problem and bandaid fixes over top of it will never get to the root issue, it will persist until the person gets fed up enough to figure out why. or theyll die anxious
If you ask if it’s okay to hug someone THANK YOU- I can not stress it enough. Like in your mind you may think “oh they’re pushing me away but they really want a hug” like no no no. Some people are extremely uncomfortable and get even MORE anxiety. So asking is really important.
This is a very helpful video. My beloved online bestie suffers from anxiety and depression, and I’m always trying to help her in different ways. I truly care about her and would literally die for her without hesitation, so learning things I can use to help her is very appreciated. Thank you :)
I watch every video it helps me so much. I have severe anxiety and many friends and loved ones do too. I would love to know the best thing to say bc I often feel helpless and want to be loving and compassionate to my loved ones
Consent about touching is definitely important. Some days I really want to hug. other days my chronic physical pain is so great even clothes on my skin hurts. This is great information thank you.
#2 almost made me cry. I’m one of those people that get worse when you open up my options. If you give me two or three choices, I can usually pick from a short list
This video is not only heplful, but also it's so heartwarming. I deeply love the animation! I was crying just watching how one person was trying to help another to make them feel better. I have Anxiety as well and atm I'm some sort of mental crisis. I'm fighting, I'm trying to fix it. But this video made me feel better. Thank you, Psych2Go.

TRUTH
FACTS!!
As another person who suffers from anxiety.... just having someone text me something random to distract me or having someone just sit with me and just be there... not even really to talk.... especially if I cant talk or just don't wanna talk about it.... that helps a lot.
I know it depends on the person, some people it makes them anxious to have no one talk but for me sometimes just knowing someone is there to comfort you quietly even when no words are exchanged it really does comfort you because it's just... "We can talk when you're ready, but we don't have to."

I mean.. I don’t know if I actually have anxiety, so I never jump to the conclusion that I do, but when I do tend to get overly-anxious of unreasonable things, my mum always tells me to calm down and it’s not the nicest thing when you just wanna say “if I could, I would”
@@izzy1yyy yeah. ive had people tell me to just calm down and like, yeah, why do you think I'm having a panic attack? Because I'm choosing to?
that is what literally everyone is saying to me :')
(I'm diagnosed with depression & anxiety- pls don't be harsh to me)
We all have bad days, but these tears and fears help us grow up, and make a better person😉😊
@Wittiest Gopher Yeah, that should never be said to someone going through shit.
When people say “you worry too much” or treat me like im being stupid, it hurts so much because i can’t do anything about it.
Or when they say "just calm down" THATS LIKE TELLING A DEAD PERSON TO JUST BE ALIVE
Just ignore them. That's their own stupid thing. You are not stupid for having your feelings and worries. You have to know that your feelings are valid.
Bruh my mom is like that 😔
Awe, would you all like a hug? :]
@@roseworld1290 here you go 🤗😊
"Like a physical reminder that your not alone" I started crying to this. Because lately I've needed a hug and don't want to ask for one because everybody thinks I hate hugs/touchy stuff. But in the moment, sometimes its comforting.
Here's a hug from all of us
@@Psych2go u actually replied-
Wow I'm honored lol
The last one is very helpful! I often say "I'm speechless" when people vent to me, especially when their problems are quite hard to comprehend/solve. And I always feel bad about it. I feel like I couldn't connect with them. Plus, saying "I'm speechless" seems like I don't want to try to empathize. Now I know what to say :)
I usually try to say something kind if someone vents to me, then it ends up coming out sarcastic/mean because I’m bad at talking to people xd
@@m1n1.m4gg1t lmaoo same. i feel so baddd
This is by far the channel that is more helpful than therapy
Lol definetly, therapy never helped me honestly. I don’t like talking to people about my problems unless they’re an extremely close friend that I trust
@@m1n1.m4gg1tmight be why it didn’t work tbh
@@The-Legend-of-P nah I was like 7-8 when I went to therapy, I told people back then but still it didn’t seem to help at all
now therapy would be much worse bc talking to people is hard
@@m1n1.m4gg1t then sorry for judging so quickly das on me. And yeah it sucks talkingto people about it. I just realized that if I’m like paying or insurance or something then I might as well just get over the hurdle of telling someone. It seemed to help but sometimes not and I just internalize on what I choose to be helpful. It’s hard to be open to someone you don’t trust though.
Just a cute moment I encountered ^^
I was so anxious and paranoid about a task a few days ago. My anxiety was so strong that I couldn’t even rest or eat, that was until a white moth flew in my house. I caught it in my hands and I was looking at it in awe. For a good while i forgot my anxiety and loved the time with the cute moth. That moth really made me happy 🥰
You seem really wholesome and bless you and that moth
I'm glad you two crossed paths
I'm glad that happened to you!
When my step father passed away in 2012, a moth started to hang around in our apartment. Mum believed that my stepfathers spirit was with that moth. Mum was quite comforted with it being around. Take your moth as a sign of something beautiful.
Oh my gosh that’s so wholesome, I’ve done that with those little Rosy maple moths.
Once when I was having bad anxiety one was perched on a leaf next to me and I watched it for a little while, then picked it up. It like, circled on my hand and then nuzzled it’s ADORABLE little moth face into my palm- it was so fluffy and precious-
I still have trouble being there for my housemate who has severe anxiety and sometimes I struggle to be there for him because I too have anxiety and I am a highly sensitive person.
This is a good reminder, to just ask what he needs from me and I'm here to listen.
The empire’s new groove reference! Chef’s kiss
You're very observant :)

Ah goddamnit lol. Just realised that.
Nooo touchy
It's hard to deal with anxiety when you have toxic friends.
It really is, I have a severe anxiety and it’s so overwhelming when you have a toxic friend group
I know, right?
@@Psych2go I’ve cut off ALL contact with them now, and found some best friends that know how to respond when I’m having anxiety about stuff - they know when this happens. but still am dealing with depression and anxiety. But I can get past that
Please if you can, get away from them, friends are not supposed to hurt and belittle you. I'm sure you'll find people who love you and appreciate you, but with them you may be in danger. If you need someone to talk to, I'm willing to listen. Have a beautiful day
@@snek7140 thanks for the advice.
One of my friends have anxiety so this helps when she has another attack. This also helps me but I'm not diagnosed.
I'm stuck within a situation where someone I care for gets anxious around me. I'm really anxious to let them know that everything's alright though, and I also want to understand how they feel. We both have our problems. I wish I could've done better.
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
This channel is my safe place, it has really made my life better, thank you so much ❤
Yeah that's true tnx so much psych2go
Aww thank you!
"Consent is key" this is very true, especially for those of us who have not been allowed space for self determination, and it allows the person experiencing anxiety to determine what kind of support is helpful in the moment
Don't ever say "I'm here for you" unless you really mean it! I never met anyone who really meant it.
I disagree with most of these and I'd like to give my opinion on each, as I do suffer with anxiety
You have my attention (or) I am listening
this one can be super helpful however If you say this please watch your tone, because if it's a muttered "yeah, im listening" It can lead them to believe you
are being burdened by them, and that Is the last thing we want
I'd replace this with "I'm here to listen" or "If you want you can tell me about it"
What can I do to help you?
this one leads me to feel like a burden, even if it's "is there anything I can do to help you?" or "any way I can help?"
honestly I'd just scrap this one, I in no way want to inconvenience anyone when I'm spiraling.
Hey let's go for a walk. We can talk about it, or we can just get some fresh air
The last thing I want to do right now is go outside, I'm dealing with my mind, I'm scared, I'm paranoid. I've been here with this one and
It literally just led me to just being afraid for my life for like a solid hour.
I'd replace this with "wanna play some (insert game they like here) ?"
Is it okay if I give you a hug?
This one I love, this one makes me very happy, however doesn't really work over the internet or in a quarantine
I'm here for you, no matter what is happening
no complaints here, it feels great not to feel alone
Would advice be helpful or should I just listen?
Watch your tone with this one. this can come off sarcastic really quick. any hint of frustration and I'll feel like the worlds biggest Jerk
I might replace that one with "would you like some advice? If not I can continue to listen"
I don't know what to say, but I'm here for you
A very sweet yet hollow feeling It's rather bittersweet but that one is just me.
Thank you for sharing this
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing, I do love your opinion on these tbh
Thank you for sharing, like so much. I'm watching through some of these vids so I can be more prepared when things come up with my friend. I tried the "what do you want to do?" or something similar one time and it didn't help--I found that decision making when she's already stressed isn't really effective.
But yeah, these all seem like things you need to make sure you genuinely mean or else it'll just come off as rude. I'll take note of that going forward.
@@taytaythehufflepuff8532 if they want any advice to help the panic, some other tricks I've learned over the years.
ask them to
1. breathe in 4 seconds, hold 7 seconds, breathe out for 8 seconds. repeat 3 - 5 times.
2. name 5 things you can see, 3 things you can hear, 4 things you can touch, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste.
3. sipping slowly on some nice cold water helps me often. (Doing this as I'm typing because I'm having a bad anxiety day)
4. try talking to friends about anything, doesn't matter what the subject is. just go on a little conversational journey. it can be about what they are panicked over, or it can be about the newest thing the're into..
hope some of these can help :D, Anxiety is a tricky thing, and people seem to want people to just "get over it" but that's not how it works.
A panic attack is real..this is good .. let's talk about hyperventilating..."don't take a breath while counting to thirty.. it's ok if you make it to only 15. Again.hold . Count..as long as you can .. one more time..you will always get a deep breath because your body will take over..this has helped me so much.
.
When I'm having a panic attack I have to be very careful with my breathing. If breathing feels wrong I slip back into hyperventilion or, at the least, utter panic.
@@dragonzrsick2543 i am sorry i dont know much about anxiety but I am really curious
what do u mean by hyperventilion ?
@@Study_with_txt If I understand correctly, it’s when you breathe really short, quick breaths, which usually just cause you to not get as much oxygen as you should be getting. Usually a side effect of panic attacks, high stress, etc.
Don’t quote me on that, I may be wrong. But I think that’s what that is.
@@BunnyBounce161 ohhh like asthma u mean?, except its more sudden
I have bad Anxiety, and It would be nice to hear these things, and for someone to let you talk to them without them talking, or reacting. Or, them telling me I’m perfectly fine, It will be okay, calm down, nothings wrong, or are you okay. It really just makes the problem worse. Mainly because some of these things I said make it seem like we have a problem, and it’s easy to fix. But, we just can’t. But, I hope to, one day, have someone in my life that will listen, and try to help like this when I need it. Thank you.
What advice would you give to someone who is trying to be a good supportive friend to someone with Anxiety? I've never dealt with it and don't quite understand but when I ask my friend questions to understand it more they get distant and aren't really good about communicating how they feel.
@@spooky1487 Don’t ask questions about it, thinking about what your dealing with can, most times, make the problem worse. Also, people don’t experience it all the time. One moment the day is going great, and the next, you feel like you’re dying. And, most times the person doesn’t even know what’s going on themselves. Maybe try asking if they need anything, or silly random questions, while in the panic. Try giving them some water. But, only do this towards the end of it, or when it is just beginning. Just, don’t leave them alone, don’t try to reassure them that everything is alright, and just be there to comfort them when it’s happening. But, DO NOT ask ANY questions about it. Answering these questions makes the person feel stupid or like they’re faking the whole thing. I hope this helps any.
@@riverly7275 Definitely helpful but probably too late. I've already done most of the things you mentioned not to do because they make logical sense but emotions aren't supposed to make sense so that would explain why she's been distant probably :/ Ig I'll know for next time :( Thank you so much for the reply
@@spooky1487 You’re welcome! I hope things get better with her.
As someone that has Anxiety all of these are pretty accurate, Especially the last point. Usually when i talk to someone about my Anxiety or Worries they tend to give me advices and comparison with what they've been dealing with, which didn't make me feel any better
(｡ŏ﹏ŏ)
Sorry to hear that. What would you like to hear next time you talk to someone about your anxiety?
having had severe anxiety...found out...it was fear...Anxiety = Fear...
facing my fears was the best medicine...baby steps...sincerely...♡
On number 2, it's important to follow through. I've heard this a lot, told people what I need, and found it was too difficult for them to do, even of it was as simple as knock on my door before entering, or pre comminocate items for meetings and it killed my faith in even the idea I can get help when I need it.
Being helpful and being there for someone will be good for them.
Big thanks to Phoebe for animating this one! You’re doing an incredible job, and personally you’re my fave animator so far! ❤️

Don't you love it when people say they will listen and you could always talk to them but then they don't listen and make fun of you or get mad when you open up
That is basically what happens. Get used to it.
as someone with severe social anxiety, I really appreciate this video. tysm
Actually it's hard even to see people just walking towards me... So many things happen in my head that time like "how i should deal with them?" "What if they talk to me?" "What i must answer them if they asking?".... You know, like i don't wanna make them feel bad cause my anxiety...
So, that time i just smile and that smile became weird😂
(Sorry bad english... Hope you understand what i mean...)
I’ve definitely heard these phrases in my struggle with anxiety. It’s always comforting.
There are many people with anxiety. There are lots of people to love them but few to help them.
This video actually helped me alot- my friend is usually always sad and I feel a lot more confident when trying to comfort them now
i always try to be nice and include everyone because i know social anxiety sucks
As a mini therapist with bad English, i saw both the title and thumbnail, thought the things i said to comfort others was actually wrong, but now i'm happy :')
that's nice, that you are happy rn :D
The insecurity of tomorrow makes more and more people suffer from anxiety and depression.
It’s manufactured and it needs to stop! Social media algorithms and media push anxiety inducing stories and click bait. Plays on our deepest fears. Covid woke me up to this reality. Viruses have always killed old and unhealthy people, new viruses do it more effectively. A new virus makes its way into a nursing home and you will see massive carnage suddenly. This is nothing new or sensational until the media makes it so. Same with “climate crisis” the earth climate changes, always has, it’s not necessarily an existential threat. If it wasn’t for the media, none of us would’ve cared about Covid, and we wouldn’t even think the climate was an issue either it’s all manufactured.
I also suffered from anxiety for almost 2 years and had no one to talk about it because I was afraid of everyone, and no one was close to me(that's what I thought). Now I am great and in the journey of making myself happy even in alone times and I don't want to see someone suffer like I did with anxiety. Thanks Psych2Go!
I don't have a good friend right now. I walk my dog in a nearby park and "talk" to the trees. Big trees are good listeners 🙂
I am in 24/7 curfew
lucky for u that u can walk outside
Thanks! Good days and some not great, like all of us ❤
I also make friends with the trees! Glad I'm not the only one!
@happy vibes 😊❤️ All the best people are. 😉
A hug and a good shoulder to cry on is always nice! Don't ask me what's wrong because a lot of the time I don't even know.
I’m have a SEVERE case of anxiety, I literally shake and cry till im so drained to the point of giving up everything. This would have been so help for all of my friends that didnt care about me
@@Psych2go yes! All of them!
Sending you much love 💛🙌
@@sianyandemoh6787
It takes truelove commitment to stay around somebody like that and not walk away.
I just want to say that's a very nice art style. I love it.
Thank you so much 😀
I don’t have any friends to comfort me,but watching your videos make me so comfortable 😊
I knew someone who anxiety but unfortunately we aren’t friends anymore. I feel bad for her sometimes but I am not her friend anymore so things are different now. I tried to help her but she just kept pushing me away
Mmm I know how that be.
My best friend has anxiety issues and has tried to convince me to leave them or to trick me out of being friends with them more times than I can count despite craving my company.
I love them but it is something I definitely took notice of so I totally feel where you are coming from. People often can't accept love that they don't feel they deserve. It's sad to see but you can't make it change out of force of will.
Anyways I wish you luck and I hope both of you are doing well wherever you are
@@aiiiia9971 thanks u too. and i agree u cant change everyone
Thanks for makeing this :) my friend has been struggling with anxiety and low self esteem I want to help so much but I never know how to say something they would believe. This helped :)
"I have anxiety"
"Do your plants need watering?"

This just made me feel better c:
But still i have anxiety I’m fighting
But
This is amazing!
I'm sure it made many people feel better too :)
I'm noticing a common thread for each of these bits of advice:
When someone is dealing with anxiety, you should be careful not to project your feelings and what you would do onto their situation. Not only is it impossible to get inside someone's head and know how they are truly feeling, but it is also disrespectful toward the person who is in need of help to put yourself before them.
MAJOR props to the advice on physical comfort. Just because YOU want a hug doesn't mean that the person who is having an anxiety attack wants one.
#5...it's why I don't feel like I can talk to any of my friends online. I took a break from a group chat because it was too much and overwhelming. When I mentioned dealing with anxiety and depression, I was met with "We're here for you"...but I never hear from them anymore...and when I could really use them most...with friends like these, who needs enemies, right?
exactly 🥲
@@ridamdahiya6591 I'm sorry to hear you're dealing with something like that too. When I confronted them all about it, one gave me "I don't really talk to anyone", another gave me "I don't really talk to anyone except ______" and then the 3rd one didn't even give me a reason. The only person I'm not mad at or disappointed in is the one who 1st checked on me when I left and continued to do so afterwards. I keep deleting and reinstalling social media, I left the main chat room on Discord (still have a few that have at least 2 of them in them, and not many others). I keep logging out ofy sites too so I don't get passive-aggressive more. Not that they'd tell me they had a problem with it. You'd think I'd be able to let them all go, but I can't. I care too much about them, even though they clearly don't care about me. I hope you're able to find the right kind of people to surround yourself with. Seems like this channel might not be a bad start haha
@@reddragonlegacy Yeah may be :) Thanks for your reply .
@@ridamdahiya6591 you are most welcome :) honestly can't make promises on time or frequency, but I'm available if you need to chat
Been in therapy for constantly seeking reassurance before and eventually you can't reassure them anymore. Just feeds into their anxiety thus making It worse.
im literally watching this for myself, my cat passed away 2 days back and I just feel sadistic :D
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your cat.
@@JFoch8014 its okay we cant change it :)
Number 5 is why I don't trust anyone anymore( I'm trying to but my ptsd says no).
If you have a loved one/ someone you care about you want to help, but have limits, just be honest and do what you are able to, they'll appreciate it. Any help/love/support is better then none.
OH GOD!! I CAN'T HELP BUT APPRECIATE EVERY ANIMATER'S WORK IN EVERY VIDEO. Plus I love the thumbnail...
yeah, me too
and 2:44 ist just a masterpiece
@@maxim_ssc Ikr. I love the lighting...and....the way their plants on their head is moving.
Another good thing to say/ask is if they want a comfort object like a stuffed animal or blanket, or any other item that brings positive emotions.
I always feel like it's my fault for i have anxiety. Everyone struggles. The world doesn't only revolves around me. I just want everyone to be happy.
Anxiety isn’t your fault. What can I do to help?
@@BunnyBounce161 your words already helps. Like, a lot. Thank you so much :')
Glad I could help! 🖤🤍💜
Both my bf and I struggle with anxiety, so we have some of these in our arsenal already. It’s nice to see these phrases shared more, because it’s really important for somebody with anxiety to feel heard, valid, and in control.
Try not to you use your own perception and experience when trying to show that you understand them. This might actually make them feel misunderstood.
I have a friend (I mostly help online) who has only me for an outlet, and it feels so validating that I am doing well in supporting them.
I also have some issuses so I always worry if I am handling this right or and I over stepping bounderies. I feel both happy and proud that I am doing this right, even though I forget this and spirol into self hate.
also sorry for the spelling error, dyslexsia is also a thing I struggle with.
Wish I could do all these to my friend who is suffering with anxiety right now but we are still in (some sort of) lockdown. Is there a way to show our support from afar? Sometimes I’m afraid they would think my words are empty.
My heart goes out to these people. I have a very thick skin so clearly words of affirmation is not a love language. My bf is a sufferer and just don’t know if I have the patience nor the time to “tip toe through the tulips” bc sometimes it is what it is.
I have horrendous anxiety along with ADD and ADHD… and most of my friends don’t look like they care or know…
Sorry you have to deal with those things. Have you shared with your friends?
@@Psych2go my mom works it out with their parents and then they understand more because I’m not the best at explaining

Let me hug you too 🤗

My best friend is dealing with anxiety, and I really want to help her, but it seems like every time I ask if she’s ok, if she wants to talk about it… she always has to go. Idk if she’s purposely being evasive or if shes actually busy. I really hope she’s doing alright. I’ve really screwed up sometimes, and now that I think about it, I’ve been kind of saying the kind of thing that can be a little triggering for someone with anxiety. I screw everything up, and I feel really bad about that. Maybe it’s my fault that she doesn’t want to talk to me. Shit, that sounds really self-centered… idk anymore
Just give her a hug 🤗
Also you didn't screw anything up, you were just trying to help.
@@dewaparkha4612 thank you
@@thebluejay5016 Welcome ☺️
The last one is literally the best one. Sometimes you just need someone to care for you even if they don’t know how. So them admitting that they want to help but don’t know what to say can be so comforting. Just to know that they are willing to be uncomfortable for you means a lot.
HI! How is everyone?
I’m good :)
Tired but good :]
Good
Hi!😊
Not to bad my friend. How are you?
We can help people with anxiety,with our honesty,our unconditional love,help whenever is needed!!many many solutions to stop our mind thinking negatively all the time!!meditation makes perfect work,as also other solutions!!💕💕
Sometimes I feel like life is beautiful ,
Then I realized that I am just drunk!
5 is so true! It's so hard, when you are already on a bad place, and someone offers help, just to end up leaving you in the end.. Just be honest, if you feel like you can't truly handle the situation with someone that has anxiety, just don't lie to them..
All I'm thinking about is Isolde, Chione and Renee.
Oh man, I've never been brought to tears by a video from you before, but MAN, advice that actually highlights that maybe hugging without consent can be a bad idea? Asking whether or not you want advice or not? HONESTY ABOUT NOT KNOWING WHAT TO SAY? Oh man, I teared up real bad. Thanks a ton mate, you guys are are wonderful
If you’re reading this, please know you are not alone🧠✌🏾❤️
The info in this video also applies to supporting someone who is grieving. "Shut up and listen. Don't give advice. Nothing you have to say is as important as listening carefully. Don't be afraid of silence."
I have social anxiety.
Nooooo SpongeBob
I always say 2, 5, and 7 (as needed) to my friends when they come to me for help. They know that even if I'm not able to help, I'm at least always there to support them, and it seems to put them at ease, and they consistently come to me to tall about their problems
This video was really nice:)

anxiety is a symptom of a larger problem and bandaid fixes over top of it will never get to the root issue, it will persist until the person gets fed up enough to figure out why. or theyll die anxious
Everyone in the comments: now i can help my friend with anxiety! 😊
Me: I AM the friend with anxiety *dies*
If you ask if it’s okay to hug someone THANK YOU- I can not stress it enough. Like in your mind you may think “oh they’re pushing me away but they really want a hug” like no no no. Some people are extremely uncomfortable and get even MORE anxiety. So asking is really important.
Do you see people with anxiety? Slap them hard. They will ask why you do that instead of what if 🤣
This is a very helpful video.
My beloved online bestie suffers from anxiety and depression, and I’m always trying to help her in different ways. I truly care about her and would literally die for her without hesitation, so learning things I can use to help her is very appreciated.
Thank you :)
I watch every video it helps me so much. I have severe anxiety and many friends and loved ones do too. I would love to know the best thing to say bc I often feel helpless and want to be loving and compassionate to my loved ones
Consent about touching is definitely important. Some days I really want to hug. other days my chronic physical pain is so great even clothes on my skin hurts. This is great information thank you.
#2 almost made me cry. I’m one of those people that get worse when you open up my options. If you give me two or three choices, I can usually pick from a short list
this brought tears to my eyes, so true
I needed this! I have several friends with anxiety and I have always been unsure what to say to them when they deal with an attack.
This video is not only heplful, but also it's so heartwarming. I deeply love the animation! I was crying just watching how one person was trying to help another to make them feel better.
I have Anxiety as well and atm I'm some sort of mental crisis. I'm fighting, I'm trying to fix it. But this video made me feel better. Thank you, Psych2Go.
