I love Matt. Bless his heart. He's pushed himself so hard through his ProblemMattic tour and hit that wall and needed a break for his health. I had a horrible emotional weekend with a near breakdown. I went back and listened to this and his words and feelings here made me feel so much better.
Thank you for talking about this I myself have been through it and talking about helps everyone including myself that doesn’t quite know what they are feeling. Thanks for sharing Matt
I've recently just discovered you here on TH-cam.... random video I guess... and I can't stop watching. I have to say you are definitely unique in your talent and funny as hell. As a medical professional, however, I want you to know that you are spot on with your description of your condition being incredibly scary.... the activation of our "fight or flight" response from an unknown trigger of the sympathetic nervous system causes an acute stress response that prepares the body to fight or flee. When this happens for no apparent reason and then won't dissipate, it can be terrifying. Your comedy is a coping mechanism for you and for many others and I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your common sense approach to life and laughter. I predict that you will be medicine for the masses one day... real lessons on how we should treat each other as human beings and laugh at and with each other. ❤
I have had panic attacks and anxiety plus health anxiety since i was five years old I'm now 35 and have to learn how to deal with it , I over think twenty four seven its crippling it really is I'm with you matt i get it . your not alone we are just highly sensitive but help is there most defiantly I'm glad your getting that help loads of healing to you x some times we need to reach out i understand
I know what you mean man. I had the same thing. What helped for me is having a little plastic bag in my pocket that whenever i feel it coming i breath in the bag. And just dont be ashamed to just kneel down and regroup in public. People will understand. Keep up the good work man! You have serious talent.
tbh i didnt know who matt matthew rife was until i saw his videos then i liked him i can say that overall even though i dont know him that he is funny kind and sweet. i can relate to this similiar video he made cause ive also been through some things too. keep going matt youve got this we all as fans love and support you and you are not alone...
I also have panic attacks and my cardiologist tells me its normal, They won't hurt you but are scary!! I always say please keep going to the planes lol scared they will crash into my house , You will get through this , Hope you're better now! Love Matt Rife ❤
I've had experienced those, I know word by word what you are saying. Unfortunately. For me it's probably about chemical imbalance combined with tendency to take too much responaibility for the things i CAN'T really control like well-being and happiness of other people around me combined with tendency to overthink and rationalize instead of really feeling in the moment (which is hard, I know). Helps to remember I am just a human and I am doing the best I can. Helps to tell myself "oh hello anxiety! Nice to see you again. I will call you by your real name: emotion. Emotion, not reality". Helps to try to put my arms around my shoulders, kind of as if trying to hug myself. Physical excercises help too. Good to test the body, for instance levels of hormones etc. Body, feelings, soul are just the same thing, not separate as our culture would like us to believe. All the best, Matt. Love you man, your humour carried me through some hard times of my life ❤ All the best to everyone experiencing panic attacks. Everything will be well again. It will be. I know. I went through it. It's just the nervous system getting disregulated, but it will calm down. Nothing can remain stressed for a long period of time, finally it will naturally come down ❤
Thanks for sharing Matt. I too suffer from anxiety, same symptoms as you described. I don’t have flair ups as often as I used to, it does get better. When my thoughts go to ideas that I know will trigger my anxiety I’ve learned to shut it down through immediately doing something else. I also changed my diet to low carb, got rid of all processed food. Love your comedy, follow you on TH-cam. ❤
It was too much change all at once during quarantine. Even working from home hasn't gone back to normal yet... panic attacks are more common than you think but are still unbearable. Paper bag breathing always helped me. It doesn't work for everyone. Putting the work in and going through therapy is vital! We love you! Keep us laughing!
Thank you Matt. I developed anxiety during the pandemic and have troubled to escape it. I try to laugh and you make me laugh, a lot. I do appreciate your story and unfortunately we have lost a lot of great people, comedians, and entertainers to this.
Thank you for sharing your journey. I too have felt exactly what you’ve gone through: and it is scary as hell. Sometimes it so bad because I can fell it come on internally and it hits out of random fake it till you make it.
I'm in the good way, mentally healthy, love myself the way i am, respectful of others! God Bless you Matt, you're gonna be fine, you deserve it! Love you! Continue to make us laugh and not to take ourselves to seriously, life is to short!
Thank you for sharing, I know it can be hard. I hope you have continued to get better. COVID certainly has done a number on this world that has had more to do than just the actual illness.
Promise there is a person that will take that feeling away out of you do u kw ur soulmate.will calm and center you that will always be there for u always and never leave your side.just remember I love you
Been there multiple times in my life in 2021 mine came on agian but got so bad it turned into a nervous breakdown, that took away from my livelihood for nearly year- it’s not a joke it’s a real bastard to deal with and it can make anyone want to end it all when it gets that bad - trauma fears stress these are all things that contribute to mental health. You don’t have to be having a bad year for it to pop up - it’s a cumulative thing ! At the time for me my life was actually going really good so for me it was very unexpected and couldn’t understand what the heck set me off like that … unless you don’t experience it yourself you will never ever understand the hell another goes through.I’m married got a kid work in a job I love living a pretty normal life ..I don’t drink or smoke I have a social life- yep I had a rough upbringing was not a easy ride for me - but once I found my happiness got married had a kid than BANG all that past came back to haunt me ..I had no choice but to go through therapy to resolve what set me off - the best things my therapist said - you had a rough life what did you expect!! My response was but I’m happy now - she said exactly now your mind and soul is feeling rested and when your body experiences the good you than realise and and your mind goes back to the past horror to filter it …. It was that day I started to accept the WHY …
Yup deal with it all My life ! U need to learn how to deep breath as soon as it comes it’s def miserable …sometimes it just Chemical imbalances hormones etc… the trick is not to let it scare u it comes n goes! I think it’s bc I’m super strong n I hide my weaknesses … sometimes being weak n vulnerable is ok so try not to be so strong n realize ur just human n panic attacks may subside …. It’s common but it def sucks at the same time lol …
Thankyou for sharing your experience, I have anxiety problems, it helps to know that I'm not alone. 😅😅😅I agree with you on Trump too!🤣🤣🤣May God Bless You.🙏🏾❤🙏🏾
I get what hes feeling....im sry...but goddamn what a handsome man! I know how serious this video is ...its so hard to concentrate.
