I read your webpages information and I don't understand how 2 weeks of learning from you and 8 weeks of group and personal coaching time makes them able to help people who need it. And how can they be certified to help people? They sound more like life coaches and even they aren't really trained to help people. So please explain to me, how any of them can really help people without real training.

@@AdityaPrasad007 For me it's done both. Right around the 6 year when I was the most bullied I straight up turned violent at times, like the one time I took my airsoft gun when I had somebody over at my parents house and shot them 50 or so times. They were an adult but still. I also punched a few people. There were only a total of 5 such occurences in my childhood though, and I calmed down to a decent degree after the bullying slowe down. I still have a lot of irritation issues, and sometimes anger. It never results in violence or verbal abuse but I'm still a very angry/irritated person on the inside as a result of the bullying. I was basically taught as a child to not show any emotion and all my sadness and crying started turning into anger and hatred instead. I'd say that now I'm the type of person who hasn't/won't hurt people, but would still hurt "bad" people without much consideration. For example if someone tries to bully me in an adult workplace it will most likely end badly for one of us and that's not cause I want it to, but simply how my brain functions after all those years.

In the one with 5up, who cusses quite rarely compared to Michael and Anita, there was a lot less from K as well.

They will in those sessions. Or if they do swear a lot IRL but their client doesn't they will be careful not to swear. It's probably why many people think therapists are manipulative. Because... They kinda are. But in ways that are helpful. Not harmful. For the most part. There are terrible therapists out there who hurt people, of course. There's no denying that exists...

And this is like a stream of goodwill like a long rope being pulled out of you through your belly button...until one day...one morning...you tumble out of bed and it hits you....and then you suddenly change because you are forced to. The next step is to recognise and to categorise between an intimate reliable friend or close relative, a friend, friendly, indifference, adversary, enemy, and not to blunder by misplacing trust. Then everyone you know you can identify and categorise broadly into one of these categories and the propensity for tolerance, patience, trust, effort, is slotted into its proper place.

Check out David Benatar, he is a philosopher who argues/advocate for antinatalism. Even if you won't agree with him, he has pretty logical reasons for being against giving birth. I've come to this conclusion by philosophical reasoning. Not by any personal reason. To be clear, i'm an antinatalist for all of humankind, not just my own offspring. The basic argument goes: (1) the presence of pain is bad; (2) the presence of pleasure is good; (3) the absence of pain is good, even if that good is not enjoyed by anyone; (4) the absence of pleasure is not bad unless there is somebody for whom this absence is a deprivation Conclusion: Not giving birth assure that no suffering will happen to a new being, which is good. But those points might not be crystal clear unless you delve more into his reasoning behind every point.

Great talk, I enjoyed this. I would love to add one thing on the point of "best that you could do parenting" vs "good parenting". Is there a solid blueprint for great parenting is? What do we consider a successful parenting job? I cant speak for Anita despite the fact that i really do think she came out of her childhood superbly. Having had a similar upbringing, I am grateful for the "best that you can do parenting" because it taught me so many lessons about how try to be the best human possible despite having odds stacked against you. I dont think id be half the man I am today without that though I could be wrong, it is something i really believe. Maybe those of us who grow up in "best that you can do parenting" households still became decent people IN SPITE of the setbacks, but I think I want to believe that we became what we are due in large part to those struggles. Too much comfort stunts a childs growth, too much can be adverse so I suppose a middle ground is always best but id rather be on the side of too much adversity than not enough. Anyways thank you for sharing this, it gave me a lot to reflect on.

Well, the "best you could do" parenting is usually described as such by the child living in that kind of household. It's because of the cognitive dissonance one experiences through loving their parent, but also simultaneously, resenting them for doing an inadequate job. The person tries to gloss over their resentment by projecting a dubiously positive image of their parents or upbringing. So there is really no objective blueprint for good/adequate parenting. It's just whatever parenting that makes that specific child feel secure. You'd never; however, hear a child of 'good' parents say that their parents "did the best that they could".
@korvincarry32684 жыл бұрын
I think the near final part of healing from such a childhood is understanding that exact thing. People are flawed, nobody can be perfect and were all gonna make mistakes. Theres no exact formula for parenting any child, as theyre all different. Maybe it wasnt good parenting, but they tried to do the best they could by/for you. Thats how you can come to understand the parent and forgive them, just as was relayed in this talk.

I really wish Dr K knew about her recent stalker, and the way she describes him on stream. That she's not concerned, she's fairly sure he wouldn't try anything. It's the same analogy, she wants to see the best in people, and she probably thinks she's done something to encourage this stalker, and that's why it was so difficult for her to press charges.

I believe Anita intellectualizes her way out of experiencing emotions or confronting them during uncomfortable moments. Which would make a lot of sense, what choice does a child who is completely alone have? She's home and wants to learn. Perhaps she spent a lot of time reflecting and thinking. Possibly reading a lot as well. She's giving wonderful answers but typically framed as this, "being able to state your needs is an opportunity for others to indulge in the best of themselves. Sometimes it can feel uncomfortable.. some people feel demanding... Many people in chat feel". When asked, "What is the emotional level, what do you mean by that?" "I think (interesting to note she says, "I think" instead of "I feel") sometimes instinctively the way that we've felt most of our lives remains even if try to reason our way out of it ... we still have to contend with the emotional side of things" In my opinion, she is giving a hint at her struggles by explaining things in a way that separates herself from it so she doesn't have to feel it. And I'm curious if Dr. K spotted this because his next question confronts that a bit more, "What is the emotion? What is the emotion you're contending with?" she takes a pretty long pause. Dr K. "What are you afraid of and what are you ashamed of?" Another really long pause, "I don't know. I guess another way to explain it would be if someone was nice to me..." Again this seems like the mind finding a way to avoid the emotion that can be stirred up in the present moment with Dr K. I think allowing space for the emotions to develop without using the mind's intellectualizing tricks would be super helpful for her. Additionally, and this is something that I struggle with and many others do as well, we have to take accountability for our reasons for avoiding our emotions, shame, and fear. First recognizing where those behaviors come from and how they were nurtured in us, but then letting go of remaining in a sort of victim mindset. I believe that one is even harder to get out of because all of us have plenty of reasons to be in it. Her childhood was absolutely terrible. But she is insanely intelligent. Sometimes it seems that intelligence has taken over her in a sense. Idk these are just my observations 30 minutes in. I love your vids and find it incredibly helpful to watch discussions like these take place so we can see.

Such an exceptional conversation. It's always such a joy (and can be a challenge too) when people are so insightful. It's really stimulating and interesting. Defense mechanisms are also super rife with insightful people--that's why therapists treating therapists (or just very experienced clients) can be challenging. Dr. K does such a good job navigating that here, reaffirming her when he uses confrontation, rephrasing his questions in a way that allow for challenging reflection but in a way that is strengths focused and affirming... and I'm only 30min in to the video right now (on my other work profile--sorry for the YT metrics guys). I haven't been to the channel for longer than I like to admit, but Dr K's work is so good. I really appreciate the online celebs who are willing to take the risk of allowing these streams to go public. They are already in the public eye and vulnerable to some of the worst toxicity in our culture because of their mode of work. I would suspect they are exposed to some unique risks others may not be exposed to--but I suppose they also have more knowledge and skills to navigate that too. Dr K does such a brilliant job of mitigating those risks and portraying his clients in such a positive light. I'm genuinely impressed. Sometimes in sessions we take calculated risks (always in the clients best interest, of course). To have to do that with the whole world watching--and trolling? Now that's serious Cajones. And then to do the work with such tenderness, presence, compassion, and sincerity. This is honestly so refreshing to see, and it inspires me to continue to challenge myself to hone my craft further. Thank You Dr K. And Thank you Sweet Anita for this stream.

Theres a massive group of people that this can help as well as it helps me. I've wanted to help with something like this for so long but felt as if the current world of therapy and psychiatry wouldn't allow for it to be done the way I'd like. Yet here Dr. K is doing just that. Absolutely incredible. This video especially resonated with me as Anita has a lot of similarities to the struggles I've had. Her thoughts were also extremely helpful and interesting. Especially the question of asking why he came to twitch and him trying to help as many people as he can. In a way he is doing exactly the selfless thing he advises against at least it appears so but clearly he knows how to prioritize his own life as well. Finding that healthy balance of relieving suffering and helping as well as keeping yourself intact in the process is truly a masterful and incredible art.

I absolutely cannot fathom how difficult it must've been to just live normally or have a neutral presence around people. I have nothing but respect for Anita for being able to endure through all of that physically, emotionally, and mentally. I just hate myself for being unable to approach people who stand out a lot back in my high school days, or just unable to approach anyone really... Now that I'm in college, I really pray that I could gain the courage to accept everyone for who they are and respect them. It makes me wonder how much people I could've helped back then just by starting a normal conversations with them. Maybe it's pity that drives me to think like this, maybe it's an inspiration, or maybe it's just to make me feel heroic and pleasured. But regardless of whatever reason I have to feel like this, I just hope that it works out well for my future friends throughout our lives together. Having experienced a life as a child, it's so clear now how essential it is to teach children to respect others despite of their disabilities and differences. Each of our actions through words or behaviors towards others are so strong that it could either elevate or scar another individual's life. I've heard that people absorb information more easily when they're children; things just stick stronger to a child's memories rather than when we're older. With that, I think that we should take the advantage to show the youngsters how things are done while they're still young. Sadly, most of the internet's content nowadays is full of bad influence, mainly douche tubers who have children as their main audience. I would love to think that the future generations would all be loving to one another, but sadly that's just not the case and just a completely naive thought. But even so, there'll also be great role models in the future as well, I'm counting on them to help out others in their time. I'll do what I can do in my time right now. Life is just really bizarre as a human being, it comes as a package with all the good and bad. It doesn't seem like we can get rid of the bad at all, what we can do is minimize it and train ourselves to learn from them. It's unfair too, we can't help everyone at the same time with the same amount of love and advice... We're just so flawed and limited. We just have to make the most out of that limit and push the limit further and further. Sorry for going off on a tangent, but yeah... Thank you for sharing this video and casting your AOE healing on everyone. You've truly helped me see things clearer especially with the Gaming Addiction series. I translated many of your teachings from there and adapted them in other situations and instances. (My english is kind of messy and some of my word choices are awkward, sorry bout that lol). I should stop talking now, have a great day everyone! Thank you for reading my essay :/ These are just my thoughts, I know that my opinions may be completely different from others. Feel free to drop your thoughts as well, maybe I can learn something new and trivial.

It's sad she feels like an inconvenience for her ticks. Imagine someone outside your house honking their horn, a dog barking or loud construction work going on around your street. Now imagine someone getting angry with you because of those noises. It's unfair right? Those disturbances didn't arise from your choice or participation. Neither do her ticks. And we generally acknowledge that people being overly angry about those minor disturbances say more about themselves by being overly angry than the severity of the noise itself. Now imagine having a tick that lasts a few seconds at best and someone blowing up at you over it. It's not within your control. You might as well have been yelled at or ridiculed for it raining outside. This isn't a reflection on her by any means, it's a reflection of the type of person who would be negative towards someone else for something completely beyond their control. It's very sad to see.

While that's nice and dandy, you have to remember she'd be dating a human. A human that has thresholds that the relentless ticks might reach, no matter how much he loves her. He might not mention it out of love but it might influence his behavior at least slightly. And she's right to think of them as "inconveniences" because... well... who wouldn't, in her shoes. I would. They both would have to recognize that it IS an inconvenience. She should continue taking steps to mitigate it and he should take steps to withstand it. What I'd do is make my everyday life as mind numbingly dull and low stress as I can so her ticks (specifically audible ones) would be a fresh and welcome change of pace from the mundanity. Acting like it's not an inconvenience and act that you can get rid of them and they won't bother you - won't make you look for solutions to tolerate one another.

@@shadowtoast6294 The way I have heard that couples can work around tourretes and similar issues is communication and a lot of structure. Both inside and outside of the relationship. So you ring up a new grocery store before you head over and you tell them 'im heading over, by the way I have tourretes,... shouldn't be a problem, just letting you know' and if you have a good experience there you go back there again and try to meet and introduce yourself and again say you have tourretes (or your partner does), and basically establish these safe foundations of places that you feel you can be safer at in the real world. Similarly in your relationship you talk about boundaries and if you need space at certain times or an afternoon away from one another to zone out or whatever. You communicate and work on fairness and try to check that one person doesn't feel taken advantage of or trapped or useless or worthless but work instead to keep things equal. In Anita's case it would be a partner who encourages her art and her taking care of herself off camera, and encourages her receiving care and help, but also doesn't forget that indeed it's hard to live with someone who whistles like a bird constantly and finds ways to work around sound and physical ticks that they both agree work... headphones, music, sound proofing, even sleeping in another bedroom 3 nights a week if she had bad physical ticks, just structuring their life and keeping up communication as to why these things would help the two of them make it work regardless of how they might be perceived by the outside world. Just some thoughts I've picked up.

this is a new youtube name, honestly tho... its not that bad- one gets used to sounds and movements. Imagine the sounds in your house or the house you grew up in, do you still hear the water pump, or grandfatherclock, or washing machine etc. if you dont focus on them? Until someone else comes over and asks what that noise is/ draws attention to it? The movement thing, i have a friend with T with movement ticks, and they arent distacting at all, dont stop me from sleepovers with her in my bed or anything. So sure talk about it if you want and all that, but i bet even in the timespan of this video, most people will be less distracted by her ticks at the end, but if you are a person that dont feel they'd get used to her ticks - then i dont think you have any business getting into a relationship with someone who's been brutally punished for their ticks, i dont think that's fair to her at all and its not fair to you to be in a relationship that you cant handle because of something they cant change, it will be hurtfull to you that they cant/ wont change for you and be hurtfull to her that she again cant give that to you- aka be right back in the position of being punished for something she cant stop. Its maybe different for someone else with T syndrome, that has not been punished (her stepmom shook her broken arm- for crying out loud- ,because she didn't believe it was broken, because she said she always made so much fuss over "nothing") but in her case, you'd really have to be OK with it, she's had enough taken from her without some acceptance in return, the last thing she needs is more criteria to "deserve love". But there is nothing wrong with not dating a person with T-syndrome if you think you cant get used to it, aka you wont "hear it decreasing amounts as you go along" as is the case with many of us others would, with such "teapots" (as she said in the video) no matter how ugly some of the visitors percive them to be. I get that maybe what you wrote are maybe good advice for people like your friends, but i think that, Anita needs someone that does not care if she ticks a blue streak and wink at strangers, so that she does not need to apologise in her own home for basically not being able to stop the weather from changing (cause she can no more change that then she can her tics), because theres no disruptive intent in ticking, so i think she deserves an Effing break from apologising at effing home with someone that wont make her feel like shit for breathing- cause thats the only way she can stop, by not fucking breathing anymore. Sorry, but i kinda got angry imagining someone thinking about "tolerating" my friend and setting up all kinds of hurdles for you to feel comfortable taking her out in public, to the effing grocery store, so that you wont "get embarrassed" by them tick'ing, so yeah- id prefer those people to stay well away from her, cause if i heard someone treating her that way.. i would throw hands.. and then some💁♀️🤨👉🤚🏻👉👊🏻👉🦶up🍑= 🤕🦷👀(also this🍆to this🥒) other than that ✌️💁♀️

This was a really powerful episode. I ended up looking at a relationship in my life and blaming them for the first time ever as I always put it in myself. Journaled it all. And to my surprise it actually helped and was like a weight was lifted from my heart. Least part of it. Boosh!

What an awesome conversation. The topics resonated with me so much. Sacrificing myself for the sake of others and forgetting how to care for myself is what I've been struggling with for years. These principles might help me as well. Thanks!

I'm stunned by the quality of this interview, this is how these discussions should be. And I really appreciate just how will Dr. K handles his words, Anita says "awkwardness causes a lot of ticks," and you have Dr. K always asking "Can I take a moment? Can I process this/think about that?" Making sure the silence is announced or requested so it never makes her feel uncomfortable or makes her worry about what she just said.

This was so beautiful it made me cry! As a person who works within the mental health field; this made me so proud of my profession. (social work not psychology specifically but still) Keep up those bright smiles everyone but know remember that it is okay to be not okay! Much love

Dr K is a phenomenal interviewer. His ability to pace the convo, pause, circle back, ask deep questions is nothing short of masterful. Anita also really mature, thoughtful and kind. I've learned so much about myself and the world through this. Thank you. Subscribed.

Anita is the best! Such a good heart, she is so funny, awesome sense of humor, super smart, has a great personality, and is a real inspiration and role model! She helps so many people! New to Dr. K but I'm hooked! And Yes, I am amazing! Thank you both!

I legitimately had a super similar conversation with one of my closest friends about this topic tonight. She is amazing but puts EVERYTHING ahead of her to a fault. She came to me breaking down and this is what we kind of came to conclude. Also about a week ago I found your channel and you have really helped myself with internal battles and life long struggles I've had. Thank you for all that you do.

This is an extremely emotional episode. I'm from the UK and I'm deeply saddened that people are ignorant enough to not know tourettes and to treat someone in such a way. Dr K has done something extraordinary humanising streamers like this. On face value you would never know these stories and what some of these people go through. I never knew stumbling across this channel would lead to this deep thought provoking content. This really is KZbin at its absolute peak

I got about 12 times the respect I already had for Anita about 20 minutes into this conversation. I thought life with Tourettes alone was hard but she's been through so much more.

Adding a comment to support this video. Anita is so inspirational, loving, and I've learned a lot from this genuine, very mature and highly intelligent interaction of 2 great souls.
