Its 2024, and i am still here.
anxiety makes it hard to get help.
you always feel like its your fault, and that your just gonna waste a psychiatrists time, and take away time from someone who needs it.
Try and find a therapist that you get along with. Then it could feel more like going to see a friend rather than going to see a therapist. It helped me :)
***** That was unnecessary, and untrue. I doubt proper grammar improves anxiety.
Wow, that was easy. People on the Internet usually aren't so quick to apologize.
***** my bad
***** Aw, man, she did apologize. Also, Payton has a point. Maybe that might help? Good luck!!
This is hard when your parents don't believe in therapy
Ingrid Mailey i can give you some cognitive behavior therapy sheets and there are apps for therapist
i feel u
Ingrid Mailey even harder when your parents don't believe you could develop behaviour problems at all. Because "your life is just fine, shut up" lol
Ingrid Mailey or when ur poor lol
This may be very hard for you, but try to cope with it until you are old enough to request therapy without their approval.
Cognitive/behavioral therapy worked wonders for me. The hardest part was honestly taking the first step and coming to terms with "there is something wrong, and I want to seek help for it" as opposed to "I must just be crazy, there's nothing I can do about it". Learning to say "I am NOT 'crazy' because of my psychological problems" is one of the first things my therapist stressed to me.
You use the name Bernice a lot. Is this someone from your past, Hank?
+XX TigerPlays XX he doesn't know. he's only assuming so, but it could be ofcourse. But perhaps it really is someone from his past
who knows
Or maybe he carefully picked a name that is totally uncommon so people are not uncomfortable when they hear their names in association with depression or worse things?
He uses the name Bernice a lot. Is it he?

Here's a joke I heard about two different types of therapy (it's just a joke, don't take it seriously).
Bob was terrified that there was a monster under his bed so he went to see a psychoanalysis therapist. He had regular sessions over 2 years, talked about his mommy issues and sexual desires... his fear didn't go away. So one day he just didn't show up anymore.
Years passed and Bob run into his former psychoanalysis therapist on the street. The therapist asked Bob how he was and was surprised to hear that he no longer had the fear of a monster being under his bed. Bob said that he overcame his fear by seeing a behavior therapist. Intrigued, the psychoanalysis therapist asked Bob how the other behavior therapist approached the problem in order to solve it. Bob replied: "He cut off the legs of the bed."
lol to lousy logic that works.
Yes it's a joke, but why would that kind of solutions be one of a behavioral therapist?
***** Because behaviour therapy focuses on the relation between behaviors, thoughts and environment and how they influence each other. The therapist thought the environment (the bed) was the cause of the problem so he changed that in order to restore balance.
+Kate I like that therapist, his solution to my social phobia would probably go on a killing spree to fix the environment. lol
Caarnji LOL
There's something terrifying about that graphic of a baby Freud.
There's something terrifying about this channel's visuals in general. It's like Binding of Isaac with extra teeth.
I went to like eight different therapist, all of who approached it from a different angle and not one of them helped. I'm a realist, I'm fully aware the things in my mind are in my mind, it's just that ignoring them is harder than it sounds. But not one therapist I went to wanted to approach it this way, no matter what exercises they recommended they always treated me like I was a five-year-old and we were talking about the mystical boogeyman. I'm sure there's someone out there who would work well with me but after so many crap visits wasting money I just threw my hands up and decided to deal with it myself.
Just because I have anxiety or depression does not mean I am a fragile little china plate with the comprehension abilities of a second-grader. I'm not saying that having positive reinforcement is a negative thing but it's like they were more concerned with patting me on the back and telling me everything was going to be ok than actually attempting to give me ideas into how to deal with my problems.
Goldenkitten1 Im going through that issue right now although I just straight up don't believe in doctors/therapists regarding these issues anymore, and it's really eating away at me :/ oh well
Say them to their face next time so that you keep your intentions clear next time of where they are not helping you
Yeah therapy has not been a proven treatment
If I had a degree in Psychology, I'd go to homeless shelters on the weekends and just try to talk to people. I'd have to make a living, but people shouldn't just be left helpless because they couldn't pay for it.
anyone else feel like they gotta pause the video every 10 seconds to take in all the information he spit out within that 10 seconds?
+o0Desimere0o haha meeeeee.
me too
he is talking too fast
Despite the fact that he talks pretty fast, I really love his style. It wouldn´t be the same without him.
You can download plugins that reduce the speed of youtube videos (0.90, 0.80, 0.70 and so forth).
I get anxiety about getting help with my anxiety 🙃
Amber MaryAnne lol me too
Amber MaryAnne HAHA ME TOO! I think that's the mark of true anxiety
I had to pause the video to take a breather bc I felt my anxiety begin to rise while watching it. Anxiety sucks😕
Same, I know I need help, but I'm also scared of asking for help.
*confused noises*
I really admire Carl Roger's Client centred therapy. Even if not the most effective, it's one I really appreciate for existing.
PhantomStrider Hi PhantomStrider. I love watching your top 10 lists and it's funny to see you here
willowy lex howdy willowy :) I am a bit of a psychology fan
So you appreciate a less effective therapy over a more effective?
That depends on the person. Some might client centered therapy more beneficial, others might not. It's the reason why some people have to go through different therapists.
why are you here, studying for my ap test and find someone i watch lmao
Psychology student here! Thumbs up for psych students watching crash course :)
I work at Wal-Mart, and the only therapy option they cover is a 1-800 Dial-A-Therapist phone number.
Excuse me, Wal-Mart, if I don't want to use the psychiatric equivalent of a phone sex line to talk about my (possible) depression to someone whose qualifications I don't know.
Just validates a position I've been nurturing: the rich get therapy, the poor have to deal with it.
I'm sorry, that sounds awful =( I like emotionalbaggagecheck.com. You put whatever's bothering you there anonymously, and someone out there online anonymously answers, and puts a song there too. I think the song is the best part.
The Wanderer I had my hopes, dreams, and soul excised at my 5-year Anniversary with Wal-Mart. It would be awful if I had the capacity to feel anything.
zaniken cartoon Your empathy overwhelms me. Have you considered charity work?
Ugh I used to work at Walmart too. Finally got out a few months ago. I hope you can do the same. It's a terrible place to work.
Wal-Mart was my first job. I once couldn't wait to get out of high school because I'd put in all the extra hours I could at work and be the best employee and live financially independent and working on my comics......Then I got hired at Wal-Mart. The place beat, raped and tortured the hard working spirit I had. Now every job I get reminds me of Wal-mart, none of them pay a living wage, and all of them seem to demand much more from their workers than what they give back.

This video here... it inspired me to get help, I'm now getting therapy and recovering from self mutilation and dealing with my depression and anxiety. Thank you I love psychology and this series makes me really happy. Thank you.
That's amazing! I wish you luck in everything you do. I only hope that other people have the courage to do the same (including myself).
It's always a good day when you're assigned Crash Course videos for your Psychology classes.
I saw Donnie Darko for the first time this week and I'm so happy I got that reference
Me too!
+Harley Quinn did you see the pedo bear reference?
SAME
+Chris M why don't you have a seat right over there...
WAIT! WAIT! HANK WAIT! DON'T WRAP UP THE SERIES YET!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO VIDEOS ON ASPERGERS AND AUTISM! ALSO ADHD AND HOW IT PRESENTS DIFFERENTLY AT DIFFERENT STAGES OF LIFE AND HOW THE SYMPTOMS VARY BETWEEN GENDERS!!
IT'S SO IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO BE INFORMED ON THIS STUFF I WOULD BE DOING VIDEOS ON IT IF I COULD AFFORD YOUR EQUIPMENT AND STAFF
Yes! including other learning disabilities as well which will be helpful for educationers who are using Crash Course videos for their classes
EXACTLY! Seriously, this needs to be addressed!
Why wasn’t that addressed? 😢
I have social anxiety disorder.. cognitive behavioral therapy (my therapist used exposure therapy specifically) really helped me. the trouble is, you gotta keep doing the exposures or you'll sink right back into anxiety >_>
What is cognitive behavioral therapy like?
The video just mentioned it is a mixture of 2 schools of thought but it would be nice to find out more about this kind of therapy because seems like a popular treatment option
ThatManAdrian For me, she had me do the things that I would always avoid bc of anxiety. For me, it was mainly things like going through the lunch line at school, raising my hand, asking the teacher a question, talking to store employees, and getting up to get a tissue (in class) that gave me anxiety. We started from the small, easy things like getting a tissue and worked our way up to the harder things, like the lunch line, from there. After I did the thing, we'd talk about it the next time we met. We'd discuss how it went, what it felt like, what can I do/remind myself next time, coping mechanisms, etc.
It basically desensitizes your brain when you do things enough times. The more times that nothing goes wrong (pretty much every time), the less evidence your brain has to use against you and make you freak out. It doesn't work for everyone though (anxiety doesn't have to make sense), but it worked really well for me :)
moutardism don't worry.... The new behavior will soon be a part of you :)
Yes me too and I hated it but it works. Same with phobias that give me anxiety attacks, like balloons 🎈
I used to have GAD but now I enjoy meeting new people and having conversations :)
Megan Gilmore well done, what you have done is truly incredible and will have given you strengths beyond your imagination ☺️ always remember too if ever you begin to start thinking in ways that lead to GAD again (not that you will of course!!) never call it a relapse just see it as an opportunity to re-enforce the methods you used to conquer your GAD in the first place ☺️
i wish i could
My GAD isn't with social interactions. But rather a fear of not knowing what's going to happen in the future, and fear of failing in life. So it's something I deal with on a daily basis. But I have been getting better by telling myself I'll be fine.
Toxic Rabbitania I wish you all the best of luck and you'll get through it! Just keep at it man🙂
Happy Guy I needed this so much right now. I’m “relapsing” In this moment and now I’m conscious to it and can correct it.
I used to be depressed when I was little but didn't want anyone to know because I was scared that they would put me in therapy. I saw therapy as a thing for crazy people and I wasn't crazy... I wish I had seen something like this then. I'm just glad I'm getting better.
Thank you for making this video. Just yesterday my boyfriend decided to go to the hospital to receive treatment for his depression. We're in our 20s and still in school so I was a little frightened about all this. Not frightened by the doctors of course but just rather the situation in general. Watching this taught me the necessary steps that could be used to help him and hopefully, with the right treatment, he'll be able to get back up on his feet.
Sorry to hear about your boyfriend, but it sounds like your stronger because of it.
Behavior therapy was something I wrote a paper on in highschool and had a talk about. So many of the people I know, myself included who went through aversion conditioning for social anxiety were damaged beyond belief, and all had issues with understanding healthy relationships. I and the other girls became prone to self-doubting behavior and submissiveness even when our safety was threatened. From my own experiences and actual studies done on aversion behavior therapy I truly believe that it can be very damaging to your outlook on life and how you cope. I think paired with other talk-based therapy it may help, but pure aversion therapy can make it very difficult to fully understand your own emotions and it breeds so much shame.
I've wanted to get help for a while now. I never leave the house except for work and university, I don't have any friends because I just can't hold a conversation with people and they just drift away really quickly. I get really nervous in public to the point where I find it harder to breathe. My folks keep telling me I have Aspergers Syndrome but they're not psycologists, but they've been telling me this for so long I don't know if there's actually something wrong with me or I think there is because I've been told so many times. I tried to get help once, I went to my doctor and they booked me an appointment which turned out to be a phonecall from someone who wanted me to go through some kind of online therapy. I just wanted to talk to someone to find out what's going on. I don't expect people to be interested but I thought I'd share my experience to highlight the fact that there are many barriers to getting actual help.
In my experience, if you have friends or family who have absolutely no idea what's wrong with you they might just blame it on whatever thing they heard about that sounds like it might fit. This of course could be completely and utterly wrong.
Sometimes this really messes up your life.
I was diagnosed with ADHD for roughly 18 years. Turned out to just be General Anxiety Disorder but I never saw a psychotherapist in childhood so everyone just assumed, and the public education system believed them. That ADHD medicine did absolutely more harm than good. I'm much happier now knowing what was really wrong but my childhood was a terrible place. The ADHD medicine side effects were very rough physically.
My advice would be to seek professional help or at the very least see a counselor to help you decide what the best course of action is. Counseling could help direct you to the right help sort of help you need.
By the way, if by doctor you mean your average physician I wouldn't have expected much else. Yes, it's their job to help you but mental problems isn't their field of expertise.
Best of luck.
Would you like to be my friend? I enjoy not talking for hours. :P
Check if your university health center has a counseling department; I know that many do. It'd be a relatively easy place to go, and its almost certainly free.
Lots of hugs. Try Karl's suggestion, it sounds accessible and will likely gain results. Always remember that you are not alone. I'm sending happy thoughts to you!
Karl Foxhoven Do this. Also don't ask, DEMAND to talk to someone. That online counseling thing sounds like an utter scam and you deserve better.
i clicked the video only because of frank. good job editor, good job
people almost never appreciate the folks behind the curtain!
hank
why are you wearing that stupid man suit
It would be great if I could afford therapy. -_-
Another reason why the US needs to catch up with the rest of the world, who brought in universal healthcare 50 years ago.
Don't worry I'll be your therapist right now for free
Adam Freeman I want to eat kittens. Why?
unappropadope I believe you have an octopus complex.
A lot of colleges offer cheaper help. Where I live, you can get some basic therapy for only $5 a session (although they sometimes involve therapists who aren't fully certified yet, so keep that in mind). If you're actually in college right now, you can sometimes get help for free if you search it out.
The first psychotherapist I visited very blantantly stated that there was no helping me. I have a very srrong fear a distrust towards councelors. :(
LOL!
Shitstain of a psychotherapist. Mind you, most people need more than one try to find a therapist where it 'clicks', but this one should reconsider his career choice.
Most beagles do
***** What the hell is wrong with you? You're jumping on everyone's ass for absolutely no reason except to be a bitch. STFU
Maybe because he was so blatantly honest shows that they can be trusted?
I have come to many of these points and conclusions from taking psychedelic mushrooms and thinking. I have accepted that everyone/everything dies, even the universe, and that that's OK. I also once had a full blown conversation with myself as if I were having a conversation with another human being. It was mostly about myself and quite enlightening, particularly the part about "there being someone listening when I said all those terrible things about/to myself and that it'd be nice to say nice things about/to myself every once in a while", also about forgiving others and myself.
Honestly, these psychology videos help me understand and actually gives me a little hope that there's gotta be one way to make me feel better. Thanks, Crash Course.
I'm glad Bernice got help but girl's got to get to an optometrist, those beady eyes make her look sort of terrifying.
I realize this has been out for a long time but I work in a mental health clinic and I am going to share some of the videos in this playlist but I am surprised that you do not have Spanish subtitles with as many as you you have
I love how this video's timeline thing is broken up into the different types of psychotherapy! So helpful!
Loved the Great Gatsby animations
Bernice is the unsung hero of this video.
Thank you for educating me, CrashCourse :’) I was crying when I began watching the video, I stopped when I realized the following. It gave me hope. I apologize that I didn’t take the time to proofread this.
Long story short. I was diagnosed with depression. Then I got some pills and a therapist, on which I wasted all my money. Besides that, I didn’t feel that the therapy helped much.
The therapist I went to was an existential-humanistic therapist. This video made me realize that it was the wrong type of therapy for me. I should have went to a cognitive therapist.
The therapist told me I had an existential crisis. My doctor told me I was depressed. However, after I found out what an existential crisis was, I found out that it was not, what I suffered, at all. The therapist actually told me, when he found out that he was wrong and found out that the issue actually was depression.
Thank you for all the effort that goes into these episodes.
Gosh you’re the best! I have a test tomorrow, ending my psych rotations. Thanks a lot
Thank you for making this, Hank and CC production team. This is a wonderful video.
thanks for the video, the information was dense, and you covered a lot in a very short time. great job!
That Donnie Darko reference though. You could do an entire crash course psychology episode on that movie.
I don't use these videos for school or just to know facts I use them to help myself and mentally ill friends
I just finished this part of the psychology series and as someone who has recently been diagnosed with bpd with underlying depression after years of it being brushed as teenage behaviour, this was so helpful
Hank really makes me feel like he cares :) I love that
I'll be entering a mental daycare where all of this is united.
Wish me luck l:
Glad to hear that. Hope you can get some help.
good luck
All the best to you, I'm glad you're doing what you can.
If your religious, God be with you. Amen
+Drowned God max striner.
Bernice looks like she's always been crying. In the real-world, most people with depression don't show it.
When they begin to discuss it, they might. I know I sometimes do.
Everyone's experience is different, and it's worth acknowledging your point (that it's often hard to pick people who are suffering depression as they may not show it outwardly). That said, it assists from a visual perspective to show that she's undergoing these stresses.
Of course, I understand its just a visual representation. However, there is probably someone out there close to you who is severely depressed but always has a smile on their face when in public.
Yes, that person would be me.
And me
Thanks to all people that support this kind of program. I have learned a lot. God bless!
This is my go to channel when I don't understand a topic or concept... Love the delivery of information.
1:30, wait pedobear waffles? what does that mean?
donnie darko in the animation
This is really helpful! My university counseling department has mostly been doing psychoanalysis therapy which hasn’t been helping me and has left me feeling kind of down about it. Now I know more about different options to pursue.
overall excellent teaching methods!....you made this subject matter very interesting and dynamic!....thank you again for your great gifts!
Currently using acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) with my therapist. I am curious what CC analysis of this school of thought is. Perhaps an addendum to this episode could be considered?
That's hard to say. Its creator, Steve Hayes, did regularly write for behaviorist journals for some time, but the way ACT is carried out makes me want to say it is a form of cognitive-behavior therapy.
You should do an episode on autism.
that isn't really that much of Psychology but I would love to see the episode
I never quite understood the idea behind autism...
Because they are socially awkward the have a mental illness? I guess in some ways I get it but... It seems really open to interpretation on what's autistic and what's just a normal guy being an introvert.
Meeko1010100112
For my autism (I don't give a give a damn who knows) , it's basically you do much worse in large crowds and groups, or meeting new strangers. It is very difficult for me to talk to new people or talk in a groups of people, and the longer I spend in crowds, the more paranoid and stressed I get of other people.
Meeko1010100112 It's not just socially awkward. In more sever cases it's a crippling condition where they just can't deal with any sort of social situation, even just talking stresses them out, they can't look at you in the eye even if you're their parent, and no social interaction of any kind means you don't have any friends, it's incredibly hard to get a job, and you rarely even leave the house in fear of meeting someone. It pretty much is easier for them to climb a dangerous mountain than to talk with another person.
Autism is not a mental illness but a mental disability
Love your side-notes. Reminds me of the boxes to be read by the parents in time life books i used to read in my Childhood.
I have my first therapist appointment in 6 and a half hours and I really needed this.
Although some people can get help with group therapy, I don't think it helps me. To me, it makes me more depressed to be around depressed people. Problem is getting happy people to be with depressed people. People who won't get depressed when I talk about my depressing feelings and people who don't want to help me but just listen and understand.
That was more than I thought it was god I * awkward laughter I didn't think I had written that much about a single person saying they don't like group therapy!
Yea that wouldn't work for me. I can barely open up to one person let alone a group of people
I live in Canada, and am exactly in "Bernice's" situation. I have a pretty reliable family doctor. Solution to these problems? Drugs. No, there is still not yet an effective way of dealing with "issues".
I live in Germany, and I started therapy and drugs after my family doc referred me to a specialist. After talking to them (after 6 month), they got me off chemical drugs towards herbal ones, because I hated the effect the chemical ones had on me. It might also be the doctor/ therapist and their opinion...I talked to mine and made the deal to try and see what happened. I still have 'issues' but I am coping better....I guess it's work in progress. I think that drugs are not always the solution, but sometimes you need them in order to get a new perspective.
Marimo I smoke weed on the daily because it helps my anxiety, the anti-depressants help somewhat, but when you're talking about actual therapy, which is what I need in my opinion, that's expensive, and the government won't pay for it. Here in North America, where a doctor can line his pockets with more prescriptions he pushes, it's hard to get someone who'll just talk rather than sell you $100 worth of tic tacs.
pugfugly1989 Health systems are so different. Although, I had problems explaining the switch to my insurance as well.
I am taking pills of very high dosages of Saint Johns-worth (which is also used to treat Winter depression).
After all I know about drugs and how they interfere with your personal chemistry, I am staying away from them, even from alcohol. I also changed my diet, cutting out most fast food and sugar. It is certainly not comfy, but I have found that I feel better if I stick to it. After a night of drinking and pizza, I am more likely to fall back on my 'bad' behavior. I also found that sport helps me to improve my fits and gain some control. I started these changes also on recommendation of my therapist, and I find that even though I lapse sometimes, I always end up reapplying them, as they do seem to help.
That is not to say that the pills did not help, but they changed my personality and way of thinking, and I knew that I could not stand that in the long run. I rather feel myself and sometimes down, than like a different person that is 'normal' while taking chemistry. I have the luxury of being able to make that choice, and I know that others might not. So in that aspect, I consider myself lucky (although I will not skip taking my herbal pills, I did that once and it did not fare to well. They do put me in a place where I can work on the problem, instead of just plummeting).
Marimo I get denied insurance due to "pre-existing conditions", which means I have to pay out of pocket, no employer will give me coverage, and universal healthcare only covers certain things. I pay out of pocket for my medicine as is, and some of what I take still has questionable legality, so good luck getting insured for that. Outside of that, Canada has a worse mental health care system than the US, employers still refuse to hire the "mentally disabled" people and get away with it.
pugfugly1989 Insurance is truly a tricky subject, it's interesting how different things are....I have to pay part but the universal insurance seems to be still way better than what you are describing.
Thank you so much for making this series!
really appreciate the diversity in your therapists. great work! :D
Great episode, the only problem i have is how do i get help?
I feel i need help, but i don't have any way to get it. I'm unable to tell anybody that i need it, and i can't write it down.
The only one i know that i can tell tings to is a friend of mine, but that dosn't help at all. since she lives to far away to be usefull.
There are many different places to get help and it really depends on where you live. If you google where you live with mental health you should get many different options. You could also get a referral from a doctor! :)
There is not a problem with finding a place to get help, the problem i have is that im unable to tell a doctor or people who is able to do something that i need some help.
Crozix You managed to write it down here dude. Perhaps try leaving a note where someone will find it if you can't give it to them?
The internet is a wonderful place, my friend.
Niall Ward-O'Brien
I can talk about it easly here, but it wount help much.
And i have tryed leaving a note where sombody i know wouldt find it, but i didn't manage it.
I need help, I have extreme social anxiety and it is interfering with my attempts at college and life in general. The stressful thing is the material isn't horribly difficult, but actually attending classes causes panic pretty much every time I'm in class. the funny thing about it is people think I'm racist because I had a panic attack in class when I when I was sitting next to a rather attractive black gentlemen. truth be told it would have happened no matter who was next to be.
lol I had similar accusations made toward me in school for similar reasons. People thought I was racist because I acted weird around black people (but really I was just weird and awkward around everyone.)
Hmmm, is it racist if you have an anxiety attack due to a different race than your own? I mean you can't help it if it's legitimate anxiety. Maybe your sub conscious is racist? I know the black dude did not cause you panic attack but it's an interesting question none the less.
I bet someone in the counseling department of your school can help you find a therapist (and/or someone to prescribe some medication) for a price that is affordable for you. DFTBA! (because you are awesome).
I really liked this one! It made me understand all the different therapies better!
This kind of video is so important. Thank you.
Are you not going to do an episode on Autism Spectrum Disorders? :( As a spectrumite, I was hoping to hear your explanation.
I'd really enjoy that too! Good idea, thanks for putting it out there!
"spectrumite" is a word for someone on the autism spectrum.
Umm, yea no. Don't call people retarded, especially not on a channel that promotes respecting the mentally ill and mentally challenged.
Also, why shouldn't they be proud? They have to overcome many things, not even to mention people like you who are assholes. It's not like if you hate yourself for being autistic that is going to help you.
***** Go away. Your hateful words are not wanted here, or probably anywhere else for that matter.
It's a shame that Crash Course is probably not going to, seeing as the section on disorders is over, but I agree that it would be interesting, as someone that knows people with autism/other learning disorders.
Spectrumite... it's a quirky word, and I quite like it. Ignore the assholes, nobody should be ashamed of who they are. My best and kind of only friend at high school had a learning disorder (that probably says something about me, as I have terrible social skills), and he was a great person to know. We had so much in common, as fellow geeks.
Perhaps it works for people who have depression (which I do not), but saying that something is/will be okay because "the world won't end" always seems inane and very pessimistic. If one of the best things you can think of to say about a situation is that the world (or, as is often implied, humankind) did not end, the situation must be horrifically bad. There's good reason to worry about many things that have exactly 0 chance of ending the world.
I think the point is to get the "patient" to consider and plan out contingencies for if the "test" fails. Many such fears are based on the notion that failing is unthinkable and you're so afraid of it you just can't imagine it happening. It CAN'T happen! Hence, walking you through the steps of recovering from a failure - having a Plan B if you will - does give a certain degree of confidence.
Consider this extreme: If I show up to a test I don't give two rats about, I'm not going to be stressed about passing it. If I pass, great. If I fail, meh. You don't want quite that kind of apathy, but you want the person going into the event not thinking it's an instagib match, if you'll pardon my choice of phrase.
Perhaps to the viewer it seems as if their world would end, maybe they cannot see a point 'B' if they trip and fall down when they're still at point 'A'. I don't know, maybe just hearing it in such broad terms is helpful, that the world will keep on ticking and you can keep on ticking too. On the other hand it also falls on my ears like the bootstraps argument, and I'm the only one that's allowed to give myself the bootstraps talk =D
Sean William Calhoun lol That's so true. Sounds good, but means shit.
As with any coping method, I'd say that it's probably not for everyone. But (almost surprisingly) the repetition of that phrase does help others. I agree 100% that things that won't end the world deserve attention and a bit of worry. However, some people will take something that only requires a small amount of concern and worry and turn it into a worst-case-scenario. Suddenly, that small amount of worry is extremely large - much more so than it should be. In those situations, being told that whatever it is you're freaking out over isn't going to end the world or ruin your life has the potential to help. This depends on the person though. Some people might ignore that phrase and refuse to believe the issue isn't a big deal. On the other hand, it can help people calm down. It's actually one of my coping statements I tell myself when I get anxious like that and, if I choose to believe it, it really helps. Just thought I'd share that. :)
"The world won't end" isn't supposed to be taken literally. It's an exaggeration and what psychiatrist usually say is that such failures won't destroy your life or your relationships, and that you can recover from it.
Using these videos as part of my revision for my exam next week. They are so helpful.
Thanks 👌

lo siento
I went to therapy for years in my teens because of child abuse, anxiety and depression. I seen various therapists with various techniques and none of them worked. In my early thirties I finally was able to overcome all my conditions just listening to people like Bob proctor and repetitively telling myself affirmations. We're all different and overcome our issues in different ways. The important thing is we go to work on ourself on top of the outside help we get. Therapy can provide the pathway but ultimately it's on us to travel the path.
I'm in a PhD program right now for Counseling Psychology. Naturally, I loved this video. No idea what orientation I'm going to choose though, probably CBT or Interpersonal.
My friend think I should get thepary because of my social anxiety
+Ellie June Probably. I find therapy is very helpful and if you go to a university psychology center it's cheaper.
I don't have it any more. if I do it's diluted. because of therapy. please go.
there are actually many ACA plans that allow you to see a therapist for $20/session.
This episode is so helpful as it reveals some secrets used to combat certain psychological disorders.
Brilliant way to follow up the mental aliment coverage!
true life, I am bernice
Sigh. Could you not have put this out a week ago? When I had a psych test that asked how you would treat a patient using the psychoanalyitic, behavioral, cognitive, and biological perspectives? I mean seriously this would have been SO useful 6 days ago. Whatever, at least I know now right?
I know the feeling. John put out a Crash Course video summarizing my whole year in 11 minutes the day after my history final.
Well, it's not like they know your test schedule. Also, crash course is not the only possible way to study, especially on the internet.
Basically, you have only yourself to blame if you got a bad grade.
We know. It's just a little frustrating.
Thank you for your education.
Excellent video..Summarizes the concepts of most psychotherapies in a terse fashion. Very helpful indeed. :)
am I the only one who realised tha they accidentaly put "they" twice at 7:43?
I saw Frank the Rabbit in the thumbnail and I pressed on it in 0.2 seconds.
I love how this video explain all psychotherapy that i learn this 3 semester into 11 minutes video
Great information. It was difficult for me to comprehend the meaning while listening to fast rated speech. Thank you
360p? 258 likes? Wow i'm early... :/
Unfortunately, in NY State, Dr/Patient confidentiality no longer exists. You can now have your Constitutional rights permanently trashed for speech - without due process. Additionally, when they come to secure your property, they will do it at tremendous bodily risk to you and your family. Stay as far away from government help as you can.
ur from ny?
Really, now? Didn't expect NY would do that...

MrDimibanez this is speech. If it can be construed as in any way violent, they have removed any civil liability for the healthcare professional and can come to your home and violently remove arms. Without a warrant, without a crime having been committed and without even having the patient no longer in control of their faculties. If you own firearms or ever plan to - do not seek professional psychiatric help under any circumstances in NY
So much has happened since the release of this video..... god.... feels like a step back in time ........
These episodes are the best
Why so LQ?
It was uploaded recently. This is normal. Try it in a few hours.
B-but. Crash course. ;_;
It shouldnt take to long for it to be able to load up in hd maybe ten minutes or so.
9:19 -- It looks like she is getting phsychotic O_0
that's when she reached the point of no return!
+WOAHFOX no
+Vortex 7654 yes
I think you are confusing "Psychopathic" with "Phsychotic. Psychopathic means that a person manipulates sometimes harms (in one way or another) others with no feelings of guilt or remorse. They also tend to have low impulse control. Psychotic means a break with reality, hallucinations, delusions and so forth.
Agreed - fixed it.
Thanks from saving us form this misstatement, and get smarter every day ;)
I have had a councilor attempt to make me change my thinking about myself, but it's really hard for me. I feel like I am lying to myself. Honestly I feel i am just brutally honest with myself, I really DO suck at just about everything. I mean, I might be a half decent "artist" or be somewhat functional socially, but neither is actually good enough to get into an art career, or to function well enough to move up in a job (let alone interact well enough to last at one.)
I'd like to see an episode of crash course psychology on the autism spectrum, sense I myself am an aspie & would love to potentially learn more about my condition & how it relates to other forms of autism.
Who else clicked on this video because they saw frank the bunny?
i literally am bernice i even look like her
In that case, you have a good fashion sense!
I can't thank you enough for this great videos.
I finally gathered enough courage to go to my school's counsellor about my family problems! but I burst into tears before I could say anything :/ it was really embarrassing, I look really ugly and gross when I cry...
I don't know this just makes therapists seem really horrible and manipulative.
piepiepia I know its just the way the video portrayed it
Whaaaaat? Therapy done right is very useful for a persons life. What makes you think therapists are horrible?
+Lucy Hunt I hate to break it but therapists jobs are to manipulate you into understanding pretty much, now whether or not you think that is horrible or not is up to you.
MyCrippled Hamster Yeah, I know that. I just prefer to be open about things. That sort of thing makes me uncomfortable. I'd be constantly trying to work out which direction they were trying to nudge me in haha. I'm not saying I think its bad, its just what I personally feel.
+Lucy Hunt that's how you can tell a -good- therapist: there is authentic and open conversation about the goals of the therapy, the methods (including overt social engineering, manipulation of our emotions (offering the option of experiencing agency in decisions is still a manipulative act, though done with benevolence and towards accomplishing our stated intentions.
To better yourself without therapy, nowadays didn't benefit most individuals having difficult time dealing their issues with someone who can't understand them foolishly, find your fear, your wisdom, your heart and most importantly, your spirit to become God sees you, a heavenly member of a society of righteousness.
Thank you for these videos! :)
