The Depression & Anxiety PITFALL | Dr. Rami Nader

[@davidhbellman]

Hello Dr. Rami I first discovered you on KZbin about a year when I watch you presentation on GAD which was extremely helpful to me and helped we through some very difficult times. I am so happy you decided to post new personalized videos and I have watch them all. You have a very relatable way of explain your subjects in a very personal way that I have found so very helpful. I appreciate your work and videos and I hope you continue to provided this very needed content at a time when so many people are feeling stressed and anxious.

[@DrRamiNader]

Hi David - thank you for your kind words and encouragement. I am enjoying making these videos and am happy that people seem to be finding them helpful. Thank you for supporting the channel!

[@kimt4335]

I just followed my gut and spent a beautiful afternoon in bed because that is what I felt. Thank you for your insight.

[@tamiller76]

This was very helpful. I was diagnosed with GAD and when I'm anxious my gut always tells me to do something counterproductive. Thank you so much for this video.

[@DrRamiNader]

Hi Tara - glad you found it helpful. If you are interested, I have posted a 14-part video series on managing GAD and you can find it in this playlist: Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Worry: kzbin.info/aero/PLG_XiSJeP3s3uiRj-4CNEUn2qoK3mLAzD

[@tanayprabhavalkar2497]

Can you please tell me ways to get rid of depression and anxiety?

[@DrRamiNader]

I have posted numerous videos on my KZbin channel about tools and approaches to deal with depression and anxiety, so I'd encourage you to take a look at those if you want to learn more about this.

I get the point and it’s true that going out when you feel like isolating can help. But For a long period of time , I m putting pressure on my self ( I mean my gut says not to)to do activities that I think will help , and it’s getting tiring . What do you think ?

[@DrRamiNader]

Have you taken a look at the video I posted about goal setting: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqCyo3qcfM6Ve9k

[@giwrgosarv]

@@DrRamiNader yea and I try to keep that in my mind. But what I mean is , that even after a lot of time that I’ve been trying to go out with friends or participating in activities that think can help my mood, I still don’t feel naturally to do those things ( I guess my mood isn’t that better) , so I keep on forcing myself to do them and it’s tiring

[@keitht1557]

Dr Rami where does the emotional reaction come from with Gad why can a person have the same thought and have no emotional reaction ( ex. Headache )while some do .

[@DrRamiNader]

I think much of it has to do with the different ways that people interpret the situation. I discuss this concept more in a video on how cognitive therapy works: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJfYhnp-pc-oj9k

[@keitht1557]

Dr . Rami so what would you say the key is to overcoming Gad and excessive worry for good ?

[@DrRamiNader]

Building tolerance for uncertainty. That's the key. The more tolerant a person is to uncertainty, the less likely they are to worry excessively.

[@keitht1557]

@@DrRamiNader Thank you Dr.Nader I was thinking that. If you don’t mind could you do a video on perfectionism and fear of making mistakes and how to overcome it as well

[@DrRamiNader]

Perfectionism is on my list of future videos, so keep an eye out for it.

[@Boutys_mom]

Opposite Action.... I think George Castanza did that - and it worked beautifully for him! I will def try this though! EDIT: Hahahhaha,,,, just as I hit save - you mentioned Seinfeld! Lol!

[@DrRamiNader]

I love that episode 😃

[@nandanap9225]

Your videoa are gond who experiance anxiety and depression .

[@DrRamiNader]

Glad you have found the videos helpful.

[@mr.random1777]

Please read my problem , Around a week ago I am using Omegle (a stranger video cahtting app) and by mistake I opened my back camera and in front of me my family is sleeping and I realize it after video chat with two person around 10- 20 seconds and I realize that instead of my front camera my back camera is on and after that I am having continuous thoughts that what if that guy is recording it what if it gets viral (as my family cares a lot about privacy) I am having so bad thoughts continuosly even I started hitting my head to get rid of such thoughts (one thought is that it may be not posted now but but if someone will post it later after a 1-2 years) I also got suicidal thoughts feeling very guilty and finding impractical solutions for this like how can I check whether the person is recording or not or how to delete all the videos from internet like so on ,,,although I know the chances of happening this is negligible but am unable to live free. Please please please help me out ,please🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@DrRamiNader]

I'm sorry for your situation, but I cannot provide specific individual advice on the internet.

[@mr.random1777]

Can I please contact you personally??

[@DrRamiNader]

@@mr.random1777 You can email me and you can find my email address at my website (www.cbt.raminader.com). However, like I said, I am not able to provide advice to people who I do not have a therapeutic relationship with and I am not currently taking on new clients, as my practice is full. Sorry I can't be of more help.

[@davehasenford3985]

Be like George Costanza. Do the opposite of what your gut tells you

[@DrRamiNader]

I actually mentioned that episode in one of my previous videos. It's called opposite action and it works really well

[@trickpony111]

I have to disagree. My intuitive self does not say things that are unhealthy. My ego is the one saying the bullshit narrative. Apparently you have some clients that are not truly intuitive, because true intuition tells you to love yourself.
