I was having so much suicidal thoughts 10 years ago as a teenage, also suffered severe anxiety and mental disorder. I got diagnosed with bipolar, spent my whole life fighting bipolar. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment changed my life for better. I can proudly say i'm totally clean for 6 years and still counting. Always look to nature for solution to tough problems, Shrooms are phenomenal.

I want to become a mycologist because honestly mushrooms are the best form of medicine (most especially the psychedelic ones) There are so many people today used magic mushrooms to ween off of SSRI medication- its amazing! Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death buddy, lets be honest here.

I'm so very happy for you mate, Psilocybin is absolutely amazing, the way it shows you things, the way it teaches you things. I can not believe our world and our people shows less interest about it's helpfulness to humanity. It's love. The mushrooms heals people by showing the truth, it would be so beneficial for so many people, especially politicians and the rich who have lost their way and every other persons out there.

I didn't know I had OCD until like 2 weeks ago. Literally had it all my life and didn't even know the name. When I go back to when the intrusive thoughts became the darkest (I'm talking freaking r4pe, inc3st, p3do) and the most constant, I almost unalived myself because if you don't know OCD is a thing it just feels like you are thw worst person alive and you are beyond any reasonable explanation (I lived 3 years like this). Please be aware that these thoughts can be incredibly dark and it is not your fault, you are sick, not a bad person. You wouldn't blame a diabetic for not being able to produce insulin, so don't blame yourself. The fact that these thoughts cause you so much distress is a sign of your goodness ❤️

My family has a history of OCD so I think I should go to a therapist to see if I have it. I started scratching at my skin whenever I have these thoughts and have thought of attempting as well, I was so worried. Now that I have an explanation as to why my brain is like this I feel so much better, thank you so much dude.

Thank you so much, Nathan!! You are a lifesaver. Struggling with “pure” OCD for 1.5 years now, and episodes of anxiety and certain temporary obsessions over my life, I didn’t get a formal diagnosis until this past December. Learning about OCD makes so much sense now! And the connection it has to previous or childhood stress and trauma. Your videos and your positive energy have made a difference in my life, as has therapy. You are doing God’s work. May you continue to be happy and blessed! We love you Nathan!

Hi, i'm 50 yrs old. my crippling OCD has me constantly holding my breath, physically feeling these intrusive thoughts in my head, obsessing over every little thing i see... even words... therefore makes reading a task. i can't stare at anything more than a second. i can't absorb anything anyone says. it makes me not want to live because there is no quality. I'm self conscious and have no self esteem or confidence. nothing but guilt 24/7 and my heart races from the anxiety all day long.. i honestly thought i was the only one, and i'm just born with a shorted circuit. It wasn't until recently I've discovered its debilitating ocd.. Look, it even prevented me from reading and researching my conditions .. I'm fighting through it while typing this.. I'm so over it thank you for doing this xo

And on top of that, those intrusive thoughts are so bad and sometimes so horrible that u cant even tell it to people because it make u feel embarrassed. I have this one intrusive thought that is so crippling, something related to my past and even though i remember how that event turned out to be, and how everything was fine between me and my family after that, my brain still somehow latches onto that memory from when i was 6-7 and still tries to manipulate it into something so horrible that i cant even tell anyone what the intrusive thought is. And the declaration my brain makes is that this manipulation is actually true. Although my rational mind knows that it is not true. I wonder if this is a kind of intrusive thought too

Jayashree. Be careful what you feed your mind. Reduce watching negative social media and avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Your breathing is closely related to the brain [mind] and gives relief from stress-anxiety. For a relaxed mind observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 10-15-20 minutes or more. You can sit or lay down on the bed--No deep breathing. Don’t fight your thoughts. With practice the mind will relax. Keep a reminder to observe your breath sensations throughout the day and night anywhere -anytime-- before sleep, at work, at home, when travelling etc with eyes open or closed. One more tip is to sit on a chair without moving, be still and observe your breath for a few minutes. Stillness reduces thoughts and brings quick relief. Like me make breath observing a lifetime habit to have a better life. Best wishes--Counsellor.

Thank you. I got stuck in an obsessive thought-loop this morning and wasted a lot of time. Then I got mad at myself for having wasted all that time doing mental rituals and later physical rituals (compulsions). What I was obsessing about was so stupid and so unrealistic, but I just couldn't shake the 0.00001% possibility that it could've happened. I kept telling myself to just accept the anxiety, talk back to it and move on using the tips you've taught in previous videos, but I just thought that if I thought about it for a few more seconds then I could solve it and feel better. I knew that was a lie but I hoped this time would be different. An hour and a half later... So as much as I wanted to just move on with my day, I couldn't. I knew that eventually the anxiety would go away, but living with the anxiety in the meantime is just so uncomfortable! I knew I was giving into OCD, but I just wanted to get rid of the anxiety. I knew that solving it would cause more anxious thoughts to come, but I just didn't care because "I needed to get rid of the anxiety". That's all I could think about. But compulsions led to new obsessions. Here's what's so sinister about my OCD: I know it's OCD. I know the events I'm worried about didn't happen or won't happen. And I know that once I solve the obsession, I'll just have a new obsession about something else. And then my brain will immediately accept that the former obsession was complete nonsense. I knew that all along, but my brain was still struggling with the "what if?" It's like I have two brains: My rational brain and then my OCD brain. My regular brain knows something isn't a risk or concern, but my OCD brain screams its concerns so loudly. And in order to move on, I have to appease the OCD brain. But once I give in to the obsession, my brain will immediately acknowledge that the former obsession was asinine and not a real concern. I won't even worry about that former obsession anymore because now I'm obsessed with something new. And then I'll regret that I gave in to the former obsession and I'll beat myself up over it. But at the same time, if I didn't give in to that obsession and perform the compulsion, then I'd still be experiencing anxiety about the former obsession. So I have a choice: (1) Live with the anxiety of the current obsession or (2) Perform a compulsion and then immediately regret doing so because now my brain accepts that the former obsession was stupid, and then be obsessed with something new. Rinse and repeat. Here's a real example: I'm worried that I scratched my phone screen. I know it's stupid and I know it's unrealistic. I know I didn't do it. But I can't shake the feeling that maybe I did, because my fingernails are a little longer than I normally keep them. Or maybe I think I tapped my screen a little harder than I normally do, so now I'm worried that I cracked or scratched the screen. I struggle with neurotic perfectionism: One of the ways this manifests is that I can't accept when I've done something to damage or alter something from its original or perceived-perfect state. Especially if that situation could've been easily avoided. If someone else damages it, I find it easier to accept. But not me. So I try to move on and live with the anxiety. I try to get on with my day. But I just can't shake the feeling that there's a scratch on my phone screen. The anxiety builds. I can't focus on anything else. I know what will happen if I give in to the compulsion, but I hope that this time will be different. We're all familiar with that lie, right? So I give in and inspect my phone for scratches. I don't see any on the screen. Phew! I feel better, but now I'm worried that when I picked up my phone to look at the screen, my fingernails scratched the rear camera lens. And a scratched camera lens is way worse than a scratched screen! My anxiety is through the roof! My brain immediately accepts the reality that there was never a true fear or concern that my screen was scratched. My brain accepts that it was stupid all along. So I immediately regret giving in to that obsession. And then I immediately start worrying about having potentially scratched the camera lens. And then I beat myself up over the possibility, because it could've been so easily avoided had I not checked my screen for scratches. Especially when I "knew" the screen obsession was my OCD and not a real fear. So now the lens obsession is a new obsession. What do I do? Do I live with that anxiety or do I check the camera lens for scratches? Rinse and repeat. I could write books about all the ways OCD and anxiety manifest in my life. Thank you for your channel. It has been really helpful. And to all of you who are struggling with OCD and anxiety, my heart goes out to you. ❤️

This is literally me rn.. im wasting my time getting anxious abt a thought which I know isn’t true. Like that event just can’t happen but my ocd is trying so bad to convince me that I might’ve done that horrible thing and I’m just pretending to have not done it uh.. On top of it, my ocd asks me, “look if someone gets to know what you’ve done, what will they say? Won’t they think of you as a psychopath?” Which increases the anxiety 10x times.. further my rational brain tells me accept the thought (just as how most people in vids say…) but then my ocd changes it’s side saying “if you haven’t done it at all, if you can’t imagine doing that at all, then why would you accept in the first place?” And that’s how it forces me to get into a debate w my minds and end up wasting me time. Uh, this is just to tiring … my ocd attaches such inappropriate irrational sexual meanings to every single thing and then I’ve to sit and figure out what were my honest intentions .. I feel like I’m out of the world lol .. like I’m someone who’s totally a crazy person n others will stay away from me if they ever get to know

I’m 18 and have a really good memory. I have a very love hate relationship with my good memory. It really is a great thing. But such a curse at the same time. I was diagnosed with ocd intrusive thoughts 2 years ago. But I think I’ve had the ocd since elementary school. It drives me insane when unpleasant thoughts play in my mind over and over again. I’ve been super close to punching a wall a few times and have thrown things a few times. Almost everyone I know is so jealous of my good memory. They don’t realize the downside to it. I’ve tried literally everything to help with my intrusive thoughts. And some things have helped a little but not enough. So I went on ocd meds about a month ago and haven’t seen much improvement. But I really hope I’ll see some improvement soon

Thank you so much for this video. It has been over 3 months since I started having problems with intrusive thoughts. I had no idea what was happening, and before I found an answer, I was afraid that I had schizophrenia or irreversible brain damage. It took me a long time to find out (at least I hope) that these are just intrusive thoughts + possibly OCD. For me, it manifests in a way that a word I heard or read a few moments ago often comes back to my mind. Sometimes, a random word pops into my mind, intruding into my thought process and having nothing to do with it. The very fact that this happens causes me great anxiety and fear that I have a sick mind or a damaged brain. Even a brief glance with peripheral vision at some text, and my head throws up what it thinks is written there - usually incorrectly filling in based on a few letters what is written. I have no compulsions except for Googling symptoms. So, maybe pure O.

I'm trying to work on not reacting but it's so concerning and scary when I don't because then my brain says I changed and like it now. It's so draining because these are awful things, I know I had them for years but it was never this bad and my days are spent struggling and no matter how much I try to do the work, no matter how many signs there are that it's OCD I still doubt myself because I struggle to believe I'm a good person. Also you say don't label it but a lot of other Doctors say to name it and I get confused.

Your first sentence is very relatable for me. Thank you for saying this, because I thought I was alone in that department. When I don't react, I start to feel like I've changed "my"mind too, but let me tell you this...the universe is with you and loves you. When I'm struggling with it, I ask for signs. And they're signs are never them punishing me for it, they know I have intrusive thoughts, like c'mon now lol. Just...always know it's not your fault. These thoughts may stem from past trauma, or maybe they just happen. Either way, it isn't your fault, and the Universe (or God, whatever you prefer to say 🙂) already knows you're not a bad person. The fact that you're even CONCERNED and seeking HELP just shows you aren't. Whilst others let it take them over, and they actually start to ACT ON those thoughts, and can care less about getting help or getting better. Just remember that. You are loved, and you're NOT a bad person, okay? ❤

this is such a good video, thank you so much. it deadass made me cry. i havent cried in months, if not years. i learned from a different video to name those thoughts to distance yourself from it (like giving it an actual name), so now ill combine these 2 things and go "oh hey billy bob whats up" whenever that thought pops up. And in the comment sections i often read that physical exercise (like actual sport) also helps a lot, so ill be amping that up too. The internet is a great thing, so many resources, so many ideas. Even though this kind of contradicts the "not coming up with a plan" part of your video, i feel like this is a good balance of all these things.

They are like a scratched CD that keeps skipping. They develop over time until there are whole intricate structures of them, combined with compulsions to keep checking certain things over, and over, and over... (I used to have all sorts of facial, muscular and vocal tics, but I managed to will most of those away because they were so embarrassing. The disorder just expresses itself differently now, though.) I often remind myself of that guy on that old show who kept a bunch of plates spinning at the same time; I run from one worry to the other, knowing the whole time the entire thing is B.S. No one I know understands why I have been so unproductive over the years, but it is hard to do anything when you are at constant war with your own brain! I have to pump myself up and give myself little pep talks to even go out in public. Honestly, I would trade anything in the whole world for some peace of mind. I don't mean to be gloomy. It is just the damndest thing. It sucks, and I am alone with it, because no one in my family understands it, or even wants to. They are all scared of mental illness and try to brush it under the rug, while blaming me for being a lazy party animal (what a joke) and a leech, because I have long been unemployed and drink too much. I honestly wish I could trade the disorder in for some obvious physical ailment, because people understand those, and have some sympathy for them. Oh well, that's my KZbin venting for the day.
