Why Are Americans So Anxious? 2019 Mental Health Documentary

[@jstone247]

Living in America IS THE CAUSE OF STRESS AND ANXIETY.

[@acooksla]

Yup, that’s why we left

[@apricotcomputers3943]

True 🎉🎉🎉 it's the chemicals in the food supply

[@flourishwithMJ]

You are worthy. You are loved. You are a person of Destiny. ❤️ Be healed.

[@alison4316]

I've always been so embarrassed to tell anyone I have PTSD from domestic violence. Like I'd be ridiculed for it..... It's not like I was sent to Afghanistan. Idk. It's somehow comforting to know it's a real thing, I'm not making this up in my head. I avoid people I'm not related to. It takes a lot of energy for me to seem "normal" in public....so it takes me a while to recover. Omgoodness walking my dog. I have so many emotions in common with this young lady.

[@jstone247]

Long term trauma, stress and fear leaf to p.t.s.d. Don't let anyone negate your experience or feelings.

[@Peakfreud]

Everyone has PTSD from something these days. That term went mainstream after 9/11 Im a Veteran I see Severe cases at the Va Medical center and then I see people exploit it And as over lay for their attention addiction which is just a big of an epidemic as PTSD

[@AutumnsYouTubeAcct]

You’re not alone. I have complex ptsd that was set off after experiencing DV. I was a psychologist and became disabled and etc. You are not alone.

[@Peakfreud]

@@AutumnsKZbinAcct If thats even remotely True, they should have pulled your license. If there's even an ounce of facts in what you're saying that is completely irresponsible to your patients and they deserved better. So you were in a situation where you couldnt make the right decisions to nurture your own mental health and developed mental health issues as a result, but were in profession where you'd advise others on how to. Nah thats 🧢 Yeah I'm not buying it in the least It sounds like you're trying to Qualify & Validate your own opinion/experience.

[@Peakfreud]

@@jstone247 Stop it, Society is handing out victim status & labels for anyone who fills out an application, No push back, No Vetting, No Questioning what so ever .... Its like driving thru Chick Fillet with a Sob story and getting issued Victim Status. When everybody is Special, Nobody Is special. You can't even find co-dependants to pander victimhood too... Because they're too busy playing the role themselves. And treatment and mental health services are declining because of it, 20yrs I've been working with Veterans, and over the last 10 or So, I've seen healthcare professionals and program administrators become Indifferent to PTSD claims because everybody & their momma claims PTSD for any & every emotional discomfort they encounter.

[@TheIrishBosnian]

Social media. The End. I'm not from America, but this one is certainly universal.

[@philipholding]

It's exposure to social media Like it's exposure to any mental health issue for long enough It's socially contagious, especially to the more prone of us. Their mirror neurons are off the scale, causing this epidemic. Too much," how are you feeling today. Let's check in with your emotions" etc

[@sharicreamer4514]

For anyone else mislead by the title as I was, this video doesn't go into the "why" at all. It's just a few people talking about their personal experiences with anxiety. There's no investigation or scientific discussion.

[@marilynmcmahon5932]

I am on a mild medication for anxiety but also had GI problems. My GI Dr. sent me to a specialist PT and over time it worked.

[@moondog7694]

One word: daycare. Moms leaving their children in daycare causes an insecure attachment style in the child, if the child is under age 5 when the kid was left in daycare.

[@philipholding]

John Bowlby was correct then

[@dinogirl1able]

Literally 66,000 homeless and destitute in LA alone

[@annabellabells6647]

The rest are in prison. I know it’s not true but it might as well be.

[@thelanguageofthebirds]

I have anxiety, panic disorder, OCD AND PTSD. Damn

[@paulazemeckis7835]

I had panic attack disorder and ptsd due to a predatory male when I was a young teenager, 1976. I thought I was going insane. My family was very dysfunctional so I was on my own. I wS supposed to go to medical school. At age 32 I finally got on Paxil. First time in 15 years I was able to relax.

[@rdallas81]

It's All in your head.

[@Tammissa]

Because it’s a constant stress to scrape by just to live nowadays. It’s impossible to make a living anymore. Low wages longer hours and major high inflation!

[@ABSOLUTELY_LM]

Because we are taught to only work for no pay while we watch the celebrities eat a $500 plate of food

[@happyhomebody1556]

The crappy food people eat.

[@kathrynthegreat1111]

Agreed ❤

[@susanwilliams4953]

The video was just ok, surprised it did not focus on informing tips.

[@sarahissersohn5495]

I really hope all the people featured in this doc explore the possibility that they may have undiagnosed ADD and/or autism. Especially the task overwhelm, dopamine disregulation, anxiety driving unfamiliar places, masking, etc

[@allnamesaretaken]

Why these people have anxiety would have been useful. I am not opposed to medication but it doesn't fix the problem causing anxiety, i speak from experience and while therapy can help some its completely useless to others because therapy cant fix the problems that people are experiencing. When you come across a lot of people and you actually have a conversation, you start to build a picture and unfortunately, quite a large portion, you realise that unless their circumstances improve, no amount of trying to fool yourself in to learning to physiologically handle it solves the problem and you keep relapsing back into anxiety. People are lost, they have no direction, are more distant from each other (makes it worse when those with different views reject each other or try to convert each other which seems to be happening a lot, rather than accepting each other for their differences, society has become very cultish) they are a mess and those at the top are exploit this through further manufactured problems, a united people is bad for politics because politicians would be forced to do what's right and necessary to improve peoples conditions, the media because their BS would be called out and they'll lose money and the wealthy because they wont be able to buy influence. Your problems benefit those higher up and if you stand up against it, they'll try to punish you.

[@ddacoe0]

yep, bingo!

[@ilse-u6x]

It doesn't matter that it doesn't fix the problem, what matters is that us suffered can FUNCTION!

[@lawrencemunroe6798]

Ashwaghanda sure helped me .

[@TheLexiconMind]

One must be careful with the notion of anxiety ... I think the old hermetic saying "everything is a half truth" really applies. I see no advantage to believing I have an actual "disorder." Even though I do know what it's like to be literally stuck because five different options are calling me and I can't choose. I know what it's like to taste cortisol pumping for no good reason at all. Tastes like metal. By the grace of God I've managed to have my own career and function in life but it has been a war. Everyone carries a cross however. This happens to be mine. I have the distinct feeling that others with my exact condition might take the victim card. Take on to their record the mental diagnosis and receive state funds. Etc etc ... Without question many are misguided into such a world. And don't get me started with the PTSD label people love to throw around these days. Just be careful with the labels. The ever-tempting victim mentality awaits you.

[@tiasara5967]

I totally agree.

[@TheBontekraai]

that's because especially in america men and women are expected to toughen up. but in alot of other countries too. it will get worse if you are afraid to be vulnerable. because you will subconciously or conciously fight it. and what you resist, persists. there is nothing wrong with being a victim or feeling sorry for yourself. the earlier someone can accept those feelings for what they are, the earlier they will heal.

[@MiZzBee1]

Well, this outta be interesting..

[@ilse-u6x]

Doctors need to become more Compassionate and understanding about this issue, many Doctors believe you are "Drug Seeking", I was beaten and almost raped,PTSD here, my doctors just don't get it! Neither do ER doctors( they're the worse)

[@lavenderoh]

If you have to ask you haven't been paying attention.

[@sanataj]

Does this documentary answer the question in the title?

[@Samantha-jb6ln]

Watching this is triggering anxiety! T_T

[@myliarobbins8451]

Mineral supplements help, healthy lifestyle to.

[@zielonazbombasu9230]

Which minerals is best ? Think rhe cheaper one is not good I read label and is not that good

[@myliarobbins8451]

There's one from blue bonnet, it's calcium, zinc, magnesium. It comes in one tablet. Potassium to.

[@MegaMoto85]

answer to title. no universal healthcare

[@philipholding]

We in the UK have NHS. Reaching epidemic proportions here

[@zambitiber1394]

Maybe its because people make documentaries asking questions they already know the answer TO?

[@Peakfreud]

SMH, PSTD terminology went mainstream After 9/11 everyone claims PTSD for something these days. Im a Veteran I see extremely severe cases at the V.A Hosp, and Also see people exploit it. There's two epidemics functioning simultaneously The Need for Attention Epidemic and Depression Good luck discerning which is which.

[@sandrafreeman3235]

The way her lipstick doesnt stay in the lines gives me anxiety, it actually stresses me out a ridiculous amount.

[@78deathface]

Jeez, I wonder…

[@sofilove...20]

Video for my ex...

[@ilse-u6x]

This is why there's SO MANY ALCOHOLICS!

[@panchoverde5078]

The problem is the sacrum. The spine is completely omitted when it comes to addressing the CNS. The brain is the the brain, the spine, and the nerves running to each muscle. The problem is the institution has a grip on people's mega financial habits. The pelvic bowl is 8x6x10in. Why don't coaches and teachers and doctors understand or implement this? They have college degrees. How stupid can you be? You can prescribe a child amphetamines for ADHD, but you can't tell his hips are off? The issues with the brain, stem from the spine. The body is a unit. You must address the system, but in America it's about the acute procedure. The system and its procedures are the culprit. It's pretty sweet to live in these Federalist times, where governemt Accreditation means certified to sell. It's about capitalizing, people. That's what capitalism is. Its mandatory to pay health insurance to feed the government mandated system

[@michelleleinonen-valdez1589]

Trump, yes defiently Trump !!!

[@rollingwithisrael3292]

We all anxious because Biden is president

[@Fister-kw5un]

Anxiety is fashionable, it increases your social status. That's why so many claim it, period.

[@dinogirl1able]

An entire country aborting the 144,000 incarnates that were to bring new earth could be a factor, your species fast becoming extinct could be another
