He said it perfectly. It's somthing we all have to deal with, some people have just never learned how. If a doctor plans to medicate you for anxiety without end, you should find a new doctor. To many people use anxiety as an excuse.

In my amateur research, I’ve come to understand anxiety as a collaboration between the amygdala and various other portions of the brain. While the anxiety circuits are inherent, most ideas that activate that circuit are learned associations: offensive words, inconsiderate actions of others, daily necessities for living and thriving. I see those associations as neural links between the amygdala and the associated region of the brain that processes the learned trigger. Consciously processing that trigger without keeping the thought consciously within the cortex allows the connecting neurons to grow dendritic and axonal terminal mass resulting in lower and lower activation thresholds. Conversely, addressing the trigger, but rationalizing it creates neural connections to other regions within the cortex. This manifests, conceptually, as a choice to either wallow in the emotion, or begin a cognitive exercise that may begin with, “Is this emotion necessary?” Conceptually addressing the trigger allows the critical connections to reinforce while the connections to the amygdala atrophy; or pruning as I liked to call it in my early thirties. I hypothesize that the activation threshold between a trigger neuronal assembly and the amygdala is directly proportional to the strength and duration of the activating stimulus whether it be an external stimulus from the senses or internal cognitive stimulus of brooding. This would explain similarities between a patient with lifelong anxiety issues and a patient suffering from PTSD. The total amount of energy that went into reinforcing the neural connection would be the same between a gradual reinforcement over decades versus multiple bursts over a few months. As ideas and memories are comprised of various components, their storage and process within the mind is done in various regions of the brain. Therefore a complete idea such as a child would be connected to multiple regions in the brain, one of which being the amygdala to associate anxiety for their wellbeing. Every complete idea is tied to the amygdala in this way creating a web of connections that increase the chance the amygdala activates. Anytime one of those ideas activates, part of the activation energy makes it to the amygdala. Depending on that energy, the amygdala activates. The more connections to the amygdala there are, the higher the likeliness it will activate. When it activates, it may activate all its connections to every other idea connected to it. This wave of activations and reflected activations manifests as a nervous breakdown or anxiety attack. If this is so, it seems that pruning connections to the amygdala is the path to a “cure.” For every idea that is tied to the amygdala, they are also tied to other ideas. Any one of those ideas in that web has a certain chance of starting the cascade. I suppose blocking the neurotransmitters associated with the amygdala is the chemical solution, whereas philosophical/psychological/psychiatric exercises are the cortical solutions. Things like daily affirmations, sublimation, neural feedback, and cognitive exercises work by using the consciousness to reassociate triggers to other portions of the brain. Depending on the idea, the association may be strong (robust neural connection with a low activation potential) or weak (flimsy neural connection with a high activation threshold). Using a gym as an analogy for brain training, lifting the five pound weights on your first day is akin to reassociating the weaker triggers that manifest as annoyance. Learning to manage your lesser annoyances gives your brain the skills to manage stronger annoyances. As each level of annoyance is conquered, the correct brainwaves/neural connections are reinforced making each successive level of annoyance easier to manage. Also, like the gym, coaching to get started is important to develop the correct form to decrease the chances of injury. Likewise, coaching in behavioral adjustment is just as important. Starting with the stronger anxieties too early is just as dangerous as starting with overly heavy weights early on. Lastly, just like at the gym, breathing is extremely importants. Breathe.

Love it! I even laughed when you did Star Wars voices. It's very engaging and informative (as well as fun!). One thing as someone from film- don't be afraid to use set pieces and chairs (it makes the environment more interesting) and also please face your characters with at least a 3/4 view so we can see your forward-looking face. It's easier to distinguish facial expressions and read the lips. The way you can do this is the Therapist can be 3/4 turned to their left and the Patient/Client 3/4 turned to their right (so basically like your video, but too much in the extreme- the Therapist was basically 90 the whole time. You actually want your characters to stay within the 30-40 degree turned from straight on so the audience can see expressions, reactions, and lip movement).

This is a great idea! I hope you'll allow me to offer a suggestion... in your edits, have the audio of person A start before you actually cut to the video of person A, and the same for when you're about to cut to person B. Not a lot of audio, just a very tiny bit. This will help the interaction seem more like it's two people instead of one person playing two parts. For a good example of how this is done, search for the Screen Rant channel and look at the Pitch Meeting videos. Notice how you hear a character talking for a tiny bit before the video cuts to the character, and notice how it helps.

wow. wow wow wow wow wow. This gives me hope that I can find a good therapist. I have had no success yet finding a therapist and psychiatrist that is actively engaging in treatment with me. Just more perscriptions, and inpatient hospital cycles, with whenever i get out, it's just about preventing crisis and not getting better. I've been wanting to do more than just talk about my day and talk about coping skills I don't use in the moment. I want to follow a treatment plan, have homework to do, understand my past, have a freaking diagnosis that makes sense and is given to me by someone that has seen me long enough. It's exhausting not knowing why I'm on medications, and not having any treatment, constantly worried about a crisis around the corner. I just want real help. I'm working in the mental health field now, and it's been incredibly difficult to navigate a therapeutic mileau when I'm so unaware of my own mental health. I'd like to think I have the capability and willingness to change, I just need the help and structure to get me there. ...lowkey journal entry complete.... in essence, I never comment on youtube videos, but I felt it was important to say thank you for uploading this and for having this channel- seeing that model and the session you had and the way you laid out a plan for treatment and was so clear and was actually responsive was refreshing and gives me hope that things will change!

if I did pay the paywall, took the test, recorded the answers, so as to try to allow my therapist time to review those results, things would go wrong. the therapist would tell me I paid for the wrong version, they do not utilize such a test in thier methodology, and how dare me to seek help outside the allocated session time. unfortunately for me, during that time nothing productive ever happens.
