Another informative and helpful video. Thanks again, Sam.

Would you suggest resting more I don't know like what to do with myself I could jump out of my body.

Really ill at the moment with it am seeing a physciatrist, however I know its not serious but its chronic like I only get a rest when I'm asleep. I have GAD so had bouts all my life my dad got dementia and before I know it I'm down the drain even though I'm on meds it makes me sick to stomach my head is not here like I feel poorly my every waking hour its real torture 😢

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤

This has helped me so much since I discovered your videos a week or so ago! Thank u!

It works!

This has been key for me

It's such a shame why this information isn't EVERYWHERE. This approach works; it's the only way. If only I had've known about this many years ago! Although I'm not yet recovered (it will happen when it's ready to), I've made some great progress so far. I find that my average daily anxiety/stress level has decreased compared with a month ago. I also find it easier to shift my focus from the intrusive thoughts now, rather than get involved with them. So many people are told that anxiety is dangerous and that they should take it very seriously. The media, most doctors and therapists are promoting avoidance (or other incorrect approaches) rather than promoting what Claire Weekes taught. Why? If it wasn't for the internet, I never would've knew about any of this.

Im never be clear about diference between gad and ocd. Not sure that i have one or other.

Sometimes a bewilderment or lost feeling happens...then I have to remember what you've taught, even though my feelings aren't supporting me....

Can you help me 1on1 by chance?

Thank you❤

Thank you!

Why after stopping the meds are my vision so blurry still and brain feel so different? I need these videos no one understands me. Meds triggered these things off in me two months ago so i stopped taking them so now i working to get back to normal

I rewatched this video again today and its great. Its a crime your not a bigger channel on youtube.

One of the hardest things about trying to recover is that when you're going through an episode, it can be hard to remember the times when you felt good and relieved (and normal)...I guess this is why some people claim that they're anxious or depressed 24/7, in spite of them having occasional relief. "State-dependent memory" I think it's called, it can really make things hard sometimes.

You are so gracious sir.

Feelings are so fickle

Hi, anybody get bad butterflies with the slightest bit of excitement. I get really uncomfortable butterflies with any excitement, as heart flutters and it makes me very anxious. I can't get excited. Don't know if my body has become to sensitive to stimuli. Feel my system is very sensitive..

Yes i noticed this too. But in a life without anxiety, you have to do some things so you are forced to do them.

I suffer from adrenal fatigue and anxiety. Is it ok for me to take creatine and workout lightly or this supplement will mess with my system and make me more tired?

I'm so glad you've explained how this all works!

It could be that our thoughts are causing the surge of adrenaline, which in turn makes us anxious. I have never ever experienced anxiety and have positive, hopeful thoughts at the same time.

Dr.Claire Weekes saved my bacon 20 yrs ago. I will never forget her method.

Your teaching, and Dr. Weeks' has been such a revelation for me, I'm very grateful. I've also applied these same techniques to unwanted depression, that all the pills in the world can't help, when it's really bad.....after all, depressive thoughts produce depressive chemicals......so I'm learning that this is my brain releasing unwanted chemicals, which I can then recognize as such, and treat them as a passing phase....maybe I can't sufficiently explain it, but it's working. Do you only talk about anxiety?..as depression is closely related. Many thanks, from Southern Africa!

Miscarriage started whilst in supermarket, xmas shop. Mum diagnosed with cancer. Next pregnancy 5mos and had 9 mos old, in supermarket and pains started. Full blown panic attack, staff loaded my shopping into a cab abd send me home, car left there. Ended up agoraphobia severe anxiety. 33year on its still firing

I may have mentioned this before but my anxiety triggers are the length of this anxiety period, the memory/thought/visions.My present self in the moment is presented with the whole period in a split conscious second....how can this be dealt with in this context ? whats an end ? Thanks you are much appreciated.

Spot on. Good to see you are carrying on Claire Weeks' teaching. I think Claire Weeks really understood, and had the solution to, this problem. Good videos.

Recently found your channel Samuel and it’s really helpful and simplified. I’m a big fan of Claire Weekes work. Her audiobook has helped decrease my anxiety significantly in the last 6 months. It takes work but it’s given me real hope I can eventually calm my system. Thankyou 🌞

Excellent explanation. The trouble for chronic sufferers (like myself…speaking as a 64 year old male) is that there may well be some physical pathology underlying these horrible & frankly terrifying symptoms that also make us more susceptible to stresses and triggers. I’m thinking of a genuine cardiac issue (mitral prolapse, conduction “blocks” etc), or undiagnosed neoendocrine tumours.

I feel that with me, work is the external stressor and catalyst of my anxiety. I'm not worried or triggered by anything work-related but work is the reason why my cortisol and adrenaline levels are elevated. I feel much worse at work than I do later in the evenings. I feel derealised/depersonalised at work and for multiple hours after I get home. I also had a tension headache today at work.

I am on my recovery journey. I am starting slowly to have less symptoms. But now I get panicked when I am feeling ok. Why is that happening?

Over the past few weeks I've tried deep reflection, daily meditation and emotional work. I'm just a layman with moderate anxiety, and this is just a conjecture, but over these weeks, and due to the things I'm doing, I've been entertaining the idea that specific thoughts and topics are not the causes of anxiety, but rather that our minds, when they are already in an anxious state, pick and choose certain topics to latch onto and imprint the emotional texture of anxiety on. This makes so, so much sense in that light. Perhaps the anxious state of the mind can be explained primarily through adrenaline... This would also help explain why, so often, anxious thoughts occur on account of vague things we have no say or control over (in practical, actionable terms). I'll be sure to take a look at some of Dr. Weekes' books and talk this through with my therapist. Thank you for this straightforward, thought-provoking video. Cheers!

Thank you again. You always put me at ease.

So how do I stop the adrenaline

Great advice. My anxiety is definitely circumstantial due to a major event . I just find it hard to accept that it has lasted going on eight months now. There have been definitely periods of relief as you confirmed. Should we not Think in terms of how long it’s taking?

That is extremely helpful. I’ve written it all down in my journal. I’m trying to recognize the in between times when I don’t have the adrenaline or anxiety in my stomach or throat. There are times of total relief and it seems that the high alert is shrinking. Great to hear this viewpoint for affirmation. Will be able to get back to normal activity ? because as of yet I’m not doing all the things I used to do.

Wow that’s an eye-opener! How fascinating. It really rings true. It’s a bit like the chicken and the egg syndrome but having just experienced the physical adrenaline , I completely agree with you. I went to go get married and live in Ireland and it didn’t work out. It turned into a nightmare. I’ve been home eight months now in Vermont, very comfortable, very relaxed home but filled with anxiety. It’s not my thoughts it’s my body still fearing danger. I guess it’ll only take time.

Dare is based on the work of Claire Weekes. She had the answer to anxiety and how to treat it 60 years ago. She is on RUclips and her books are on Amazon.

Thank you Sam this is very helpful! You explain things very well.

I am struggling with a dysregulated nervesystem from 18 years of Effexor use. I am now in prolonged withdrawal. I used 6 months to taper down from 150mg to 0 but I am still struggling 5 months into recovery. And this is what I tell myself when I have waves of cortisol release. I am getting better week by week, but this takes TIME. and it is difficult not to fall into more anxiety because of all the weird happenings in my nervous system. Too much to write here, but it is one hell of a ride that I wouldn`t want on my worst enemy. It is getting better, though. First 3 months were hellish.

This is a fantastic perspective!! Thoughts can be like "wild hogs" rushing at you. Meditation can be helpful here as well.

After I ate a bucket of KFC I felt lonely depressed and anxious. I went and vomited it and instantly felt 100% fine sane and healthy.
