Why Seek out Doubt When You Have Panic, Health Anxiety or OCD?

[@BarryBarmannPhDBuckeye]

Another excellent video demonstration by Dr. Wilson encouraging therapists to approach treatment sessions by focusing on helping the patient to better tolerate the feeling of doubt and uncertainty, rather than focusing on their content, which would go nowhere. There's an infinite amount of content that patients will find, which is why its fruitless for therapists (and their patients) to go in that direction.

I love her reaction when he said "Great!". I had the seme reaction when I first read about ACT.

[@Justfor2day10]

Wan Meireles I actually felt the same way when he told me this! I thought he’d lost his mind 😂 but he is 100% correct! Run towards the roar 😉

After years of mental torture, finding you videos has given me a release, can’t thank you enough. Could you please do more on this health anxiety topic Dr Wilson, especially regarding cardiac fears and what to do with symptoms like palpitations, fast heart beat, I feel I’m on the verge of recovery after watching and listening to your presentations. Thank you so much

This is fantastic. This idea is cornerstone to ocd/anxiety recovery.

[@GreasyBaconMan]

This Dr. is phenomenal! He is just very logical and loving the honest direction he gives is freeing.

[@y2taner]

i really like the way you explain stuff! :D

[@jpage99999]

I’m trying this right now with anxiety raging. I said, great I get to practice, excellent. And my body just flipped out like what the #$&* did you just say. Great, good, excellent.? I got intense anger and so it seems I am resisting and fighting these symptoms with all my power, and it’s not working. I don’t like the symptoms, I freaking hate them, this has turned my whole life upside down. There’s something to this technique. I’m going to keep it going. It’s terrifying, great !

[@stephaniemoura9325]

Thank you for your work, I'm soo glad I found your videos now

[@Earth098]

This was really helpful!! Thanks!!

[@legacytrainer4242]

It will take a lot of faith and trust in your counselor that it will eventually habituate.

[@davidfayfield6594]

I wonder if posting on this board is a way of seeking reassurance. Anyway I’m going to try the technique for my intense health anxiety. Nothing else has worked.

[@billmiles9413]

What you resist persists.this video is key to smashing the anxiety/OCD that the mind creates.when you do the opposite of what fear is telling you, you stop resisting.i have to maintain this practice or the fear will creep back in.pardoxical intention by Victor Frankl is an amazing tool to use-he has a great video/videos on KZbin -it seems crazy his theory -but with practice it really does work.🙏👍

I had this when I had excess estrogen and not enough progesterone because I wasn’t ovulating. Progesterone sits on gaba receptors the same ones anti anxiety meds do.

[@joannaoconnor9418]

See this is the problem, here in the UK they just don’t check hormones for mental health and I am certain than my anxiety is linked, in the most part to my hormones

[@Oriexxo]

Your comment reminds me of how good and calm I felt while using progesterone cream, thanks!

[@Lazem_]

I just recently started researching the correlation between high estrogen lvls and anxiety. One time i had to take artificial progesterone and had the time of my life! That is why I'll start seed cycling for hormone balance. Thank you for your comment!

[@davidfayfield6594]

How long do you need to stay with feeling to habituate to it

[@bronwyn2991]

👍 Another thing… God says “Give thx in all situations “ … so then “give thx for the anxiety…” … it diffuses it’s power over you.

[@arnolddewet560]

GREAT! 😂😂😂😂

[@jelenatisma4215]

my ocd tells me i dont understand my job

[@imogenereeve6512]

Your sadistic super ego, which is not your own, essentially? - introject of parent etc. Have you looked into abuse etc?

[@imogenereeve6512]

I have developed an obsessional neurosis from narcissistic abuse and gaslighting by my father

[@imogenereeve6512]

Amongst many other problems.

[@chandanritvik1]

GREAT! 😂😂
