I tried to hold and "face the fear" but diarrhea will not disappear and will release in loose form. I know it must not be wrong food, the spasm or pain turns solid into loose stool.

I have a fear of writing comments, so here I am doing so. My irrational fear that everything I do is being judged and the constant avoidance of taking initiatives is ruining my life. I’m so grateful for these tips, they make you realize not to avoid but to sometimes make yourself comfortable. I love the analogy of comparing your fears to the muscle building. I hope I can leverage these tips and become better soon. :)

That definition of anxiety is perfect. “Anxiety is not caused by a lack of caring but it’s being paralyzed for caring too much.” That is so true. Hearing this confirmation is extremely helpful! Thank you so much!

[@Coinmancer]

Yes and I would like to add it is not the sign of a "weak mind" but rather a super powerful mind that makes a lot of impact

[@taranextstop]

Made me cry so much. I am not exaggerating, tha k you

[@platinumstorm2521]

@@Coinmancer when you think about it, anxious people have some of the strongest minds. When you look at it from this perspective, anxious people's minds are so strong as they are powerful enough to convince their own brain that they are in danger. Although it's not beneficial to think in the sense of worst case scenarios and anxiety. If you were to change how you use the fear and power of anxiety (that we give it) think of what crazy and amazing things we could do if we used our brains in another way?

Really needed this; my anxiety and depression is caused majorly by my perfectionism and comparison....and every time I think about my mistakes/failures and what I don't have, I just cry no matter where I am. Grounding techniques, prayer and mindfulness really help me get calm but I now have more ideas from you! Thank you. 😊

[@wickedcrypto6004]

I been on medication for about 1 year now. Honestly the medication made me feel worst before I could feel normal again. I never had a traumatic event. I was always smiling with a great sense of humor so I have no Idea what trigger it. As a teen I did martial arts and lots of meditation but nothing could get me ready for this. My first anxiety episode was at 33 and I was hospitalize. They couldn't find nothing wrong with me. My Doctor said I had some form of anxiety. Since I been exercising again and meditating on a whole different level! I try to be more aware of my surrounding and turn of the light in my room when ever I feel overwhelm. I don't like living with anxiety but I don't let it control me either and its so hard to do. I sometime start crying out of no where but when my tears are all gone I feel brand new I feel better. Life is beautiful and anxiety perhaps has humble me. Its like learning how to walk again. Thank you for this video.

[@RichSProducer]

I'm going through exactly the same thing right now at 35. Life was awesome and I was waking up excited to learn and do new things. Loved to lift weigths (still do) and started meditating this year. Then something happened and now reality itself is scary and every minute can seem like a lifetime. It's always comforting to see I'm not alone...atleast bitcoin is doing well 😊

[@wickedcrypto6004]

I love weightlifting as well. Exercise can help especially cardio. Make sure to read the fine print on the label of supplements. I had to get rid of a lot of things I was taking like coffee and certain supplements that were affecting my blood pressure and trigging my anxiety. Chamomile tea helps in the morning and in the night. I’m here to help bud if anything. Sometimes the best source is talking about it.

[@RichSProducer]

@@wickedcrypto6004 That made me smile, man :) I've been having the same blood pressure issues connected with the anxiety/panic. I actually only started drinking coffee over the last year and I stopped it the day this all started since I knew it would just make things worse. The most "real" I feel during all of this is when I'm lifting, without a doubt. Going to try and get some sleep now, but I'll hit you up for sure. Thanks the awesome reply!

This is soooooo helpful! I am doubly appreciative that you use being afraid of dogs because that's my issue. What has also hurt is that owners are unlearned and have misbehaving dogs. Added to that rhe shame and judgement they spew as if something is wrong with your character because you prefer not to be around pets. Getting this education has made me so much more compassionate to others with any kind of anxiety or phobia. . .because we all probably have "something" we're managing.

I had visitors over today for the 1st time since our lockdowns. I live in Melbourne, Au, where the lockdowns were some of the harshest in the world and I have Lupus & CFS (+ OCD). I can't clean like I'd like to, ie. to PERFECTION!! So, having friends over when the house isn't absolutely shiny and perfect + I didn't have much food to give them - this & the previous video helped me SO MUCH. I was VERY anxious beforehand but having them here, it was fine. It was actually very nice!!! Everyone ate, had something to drink and the children played (albeit, they fought over toys, which is completely normal!) I can't believe I was so scared 'til now!!!

[@artbybard]

i CAN do hard things, i do them constantly, and i overcome them. Usually, the things i was most anxious about wind up coming and going without being even half as harrowing as my anticipatory anxiety made them out to be... but it rarely registers as a success for me, or as a "facing my fears" kinda moment - i just feel haggard after, and judge myself for how hard the thing was for me emotionally, when it clearly shouldn't have been. I guess the step i am missing is giving a judgement free space for my feelings. instead i just get angry with my own emotions most of the time. as if my feelings were an annoying weeping child and i wanna has as little contact with as possible... thanks for the thought provoking videos.

1)Choose something that matters more. Write down why you want to beat anxiety, why you want to experience it. 2) Practice willingness, allow physical sensations to be there and breathe into them. Sit with them. Active acceptance 3)Practice grounding techniques and build emotional muscles 4)Let go of perfectionism. I'm gonna keep trying and learning. Let go of looking perfect and be open to mistakes 5)Let go of belief, " I can't handle this anxiety" This is uncomfortable, but I can do hard things 6)Change how you perceive situations. Notice the thought and then replace the thought 7)Do one small step everyday. Exposure hierarchy. Start with smaller fears. 8)Stay with your fears till you can calm down, allow it to be uncomfortable for a cause . Be present , feel the emotions pass through, allow the number to reduce by at least half 9)Get support to help you face your fears. 10)Be compassionate with yourself. Celebrate small wins. We are caring too much. Let go, give yourself some love.

Thank you so much for the help and advice on how to manage anxiety, I have been trying to fight it, and I'm attending therapy, but have not found it as helpful as watching your videos, maybe I haven't given it enough time yet, and I was not exactly clear on what I was struggling with when talking with my therapist. You are very knowleagable about it, and calming, and for the first time I feel I'm not alone in how I feel. My family / college lectures, even therapists don't seem to understand how bad it is, Which makes me feel worse. It's debilitating. I'm attending college, and in my second last year, and anxiety is around doing my college work and also social interactions with competitive and intimidating classmates, who seem to have played on my struggles.I used to love the work, and was able to do it, with a normal amount of anxiety. but since dealing which the situations with class mates it has worsened, and now even when their not around (covid 19 working from home). It seems to just flare up every time I try to do my college work. I've had to get extensions to finish exams, and the more time that passes the worse It becomes. I now fear not being able to finish at all, but I just keep trying and nothing is happening, so I end up distracting myself from the feelings by watching t.v or going for walks/eating. I tried to hide how I was feeling feeling and not appear vunerable. When I have talked about it, it has made me feel worse because I don't feel I got the understanding I needed, and felt they thought it was my own fault and problem, and the way in which the classmates were affecting me, was ultimately in my control. I have a lot of responsibility outside college as a single parent to a teenager, and Im also in a newish (2.5yrs) relationship for the first time since my daughter was a baby. Achieving the college degree means a lot to me and I have tried a few times over the years, but haven't succeeded. thanks for all the tips! I'm not going to let this beat me!!

Very helpful video, thank you. I see parallels with what Jordan Peterson has written in his books. Slay the dragon to get the gold = face the fear to reap the rewards. 'Treat yourself as someone you are responsible for helping' = be compassionate with yourself. When experts in mental health say similar things which make sense everyone should take notice. This video provides us with the right questions to ask, we just need to take it upon ourselves to find out the answers.

Thanks lot for these lessons. I still need to practice. I have a lot of fear for MRI and CT scan machines. I suffer headaches and once I was in one of them I was very ill after the experience. I was so traumatised and still suffer from this fear even today. The last time I went to do CT scan, my wife had to be with me in the radiation room and I struggled through it. I will use the exercises and hopefully one day I can overcome my deep fear of these machines. Thank you again. Much appreciated indeed.

Ah... I see... Perfectionism, is it? Yes, now that I think about it, I've been unreasonably and unnecessarily trying to be perfect lately. I'm basically in a desperate situation where I can no longer fail. That's why I've been trying so hard to be perfect. But since I crave for perfection, I can no longer tolerate literally any of my flaws. That also prevents me from doing hard things, which what I used to do on daily basis. Since I can no longer tolerate failure or mediocrity, I've been unconsciously avoiding doing hard things because I will likely to fail. My fear of failure is so intense that it makes me dysfunctional. I see... Thank you for the insight! ❤️

Perfection is something I have been plagued by since I was a child...I so would love to squash this.❤️

Thank you for these videos my 11 yr old is struggling. I want to show him these which I feel will even help him understand his counseling sessions better

I'd go for it. My sons have gotten a lot from videos like this and say these kinds of things should be taught in school. 👍✨

i've been socially anxious throughout childhood, when i was 26 i decided to join package travels with strangers. i tried to do it every month as long as my budget can allowat first i couldnt sleep for nights before the travel, but eventually i become comfortable with people. i also took a frontline job where i need to talk to customers.. it really helped, ive changed so much for the past 6 yrs, until the pandemic and lockdowns happened. i somehow lost the momentum.. now i'm going back to building this social confidence again but yes i am totally different now than 6 yrs ago.

I usually don't write comments plus this video is four years old . But still wanted to thank this Creator for this educational content. Thanks so much

[@maggiegoodwin833]

This was so very good. Thank you!!!

[@theologytherapist]

There's so many great points you've touched on in this video. Letting go of perfectionism is definitely something I see my clients struggle with who might be healing from RTS. Great coverage on this topic!

#9 and taking baby steps were techniques I used to get over my driving anxiety. I never realized they were legitimate techniques at the time; it was just something I started doing once I found a friend that would keep me company and go on road trips with me. I knew I had to face my anxiety or else I'd never improve. I wish I had the same courage to "face my fear" for my phobia.

I refer a lot of my patients to psycologists as a Chiropractor. People underestimate the power of psychology and coping strategies. Love this!
