“Turn up the volume and enjoy”
People with anxiety: *turns volume down*
ME-
Yesss!
That
HAHA i did that
Me too.
This video is so accurate... I’m not actually seeing monsters because they’re all just my worries in my head but I get the same feeling as if I’m watching a 24 hour horror movie every day of my life. That’s Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
Adrielle B I have a similar experience, same condition. It's not a monster, per se, but a fear of enemies. I fear that people around me are malevolent, and that something will go wrong regardless of the situation. Any time I hear laughter of any kind, I assume it's at me. And of course, the easiest way to tell I'm in the middle of that kind of situation is when my mind gets so overwhelmed by what could go wrong in a situation, I can't focus on anything else.

This is so true
i have the fear of messing up, talking to people, or just being watched by others and speaking up it’s so bad i can’t even make friends idk what it is though i never talk about it but my dad is worried sick
@@at-xh1yv omg this it literally exactly how I feel
@@samuelvibritannia4831 Maybe you have social anxiety?
The anxiety you feel from this video, is exactly how I feel in social situations and just generally being around people, and being outside of the comfort of my home. Anxiety is scarier than any horror movie.
Mckelle666 same
same x2
Yesss me too!!!@
omg yess!!!horror movie is literally nothing compared to anxiety....You literally can;t focus on any thing!!
YEAH I CAN'T SEE THIS VEDIO.
It's even around my friends...
This video: **exists**
Me, during every second of this: *jUmPsCaRe?!?!*
I hate when they open a mirror cabinet and you're expecting something to stand behind the person or the person to be changed
The Gallant Gangster €{££{££{£]¥]£] LITERALLYYYY
Omg ikr
The ending really just hit home for me. The building up of the sounds and the creepy shadow made my heart race so much I literally had to rip my headphones out at the end Bc it was too much. The feeling I had after was exactly how I feel when my anxiety is acting up I just had to take a minute to calm down but wow amazing job yet again. I love all your mental health awareness videos they truly capture what it’s like to deal with mental illness( at least for me) and puts my thoughts and feelings into words. Thank you💖
same my heart started racing I just closed my eyes and skipped to the end.
This, this, this right before going to bed was like the worst idea ever. I have to agree that ending was movie worthy, pfff there is only few movies that had such a big impact on me like that scene.
same, legit having an anxiety attack but telling myself to take a breather. It really does show that aspect of always being on edge, always feeling like something is out to get you. Amazing job x
I feel that everyday. It's so scary and I know whatever I'm seeing or feeling isn't truly there but I still feel uneasy

this is good, very very good, such a great choice to use audio and visual triggers to recreate the anxiety sensation, which is spot on by the way, great use of lighting and spacing, as well as the sound mixing!
thanks!!! :)
Kat Napiorkowska deserved words ^^
This is me. Everyday. Sometimes its so hqrd to control yourself. I rush to my meds and wait until everything calms down. Its so weird. Im scared of everything. I walk around with a taser, severely sleep deprived.. And i cant just help feeling that everything. Is. Against me.
Something is up..
Its so bad that i cant even eat with my family.. I wait til im completely alone and i go to eat...
Dont talk about public.. I go once or twice outside for a few moments if i REALLY have to.. Only to be in constant fear.
Thank you so much. Im crying because this is just. Perfect.
I feel so bad for people experiencing anxiety. I only experienced it for five minutes but anxiety is an ongoing everyday task. Some people live with it for months. Some people live with it for years. I can't even began to imagine what it's life :'(
It's fantastic that you at least understand it. So many people expect us to just "get over it" when we need much more help than that.
Draven'sCharacters TV Thank you for your sympathy.. and yeah it is like that.. exactly like that
I've been living with generalized anxiety and panic attacks for 20yrs on and off.. it's horrible
The thing is I want to get over my phobia but I'm stubborn about getting help. And so, this fear of mine gets worse. I just keep telling myself I'll "get over it"
sometimes if your bad memories which could trigger you suddenly flash back or idk know why and at that moment you really want to die. but sometimes its fine.
Your videos are just amazing .For me it was scary af, but I love it.
DingDong That's the point of the video. That's what an anxiety attack would feels like.
The ending was so creepy ... Something was happening actually like when I get my anexiety attack... This made my heart raced ... I rushed to plug my headphones off... Still shivering and my heart is racing too fast while I'm writing this.. Good job... It actually made me feel like anexiety
Guess who is going to sleep with the lights on tonight.Terrifying and amazing at the same time.Congratulations Kat.
Great work as always!!! :)
I find the last part especially relatable. I go to bed at night, turn the lights off, try to sleep and it starts. My hearts starts beating faster and faster. I hear weird noises. I feel like I'm not alone in my room. I know it doesn't make sense but I feel...observed. I try to ignore it, I know I'm being irrational but I can't and my hearbeat is so loud and I'm terrified. In the end, I give up and turn a light on. I've been told that a huge part of living with anxiety is to find coping mechanisms that work for you. If having a light on at night prevents me from having a full blown panic at night, then so be it.
Now, to find something that works when I feel bad in social situations, that's another thing...
Et La Pluie literally same!! I never go to sleep without a light on!! I always feel like someone or sth is behind me when I try to sleep!!!! And I feel like choking in darkness
Exactly! Also I can't fall asleep if I'm not facing the door and the windows (which luckily are on the same side of the room)
Et La Pluie saaaame
This is so true!!! I always feel like I being watched and I have to watch the door and get my comforter over me. Sometimes I think I hear stuff or see stuff and and so scared I stop moving all together my breathing stops and I start feeling my heart pump super fast. I want to scream but my lips are stuck tight together. I can’t move,can’t breath, and can’t speak. I just sit and cry silently so I don’t make a sound barely able to breath waiting for morning to come. It’s terrifying. I’m afraid to be alone, I’m afraid of having windows open, I’m afraid if the house creeks. Its horrible
I remember going to my parents bedroom just to sleep there because I just can't sleep alone, and they just said that I am all grown up and it's just in my mind. I know it, it's just in my mind, I know. No one knows it better than me but then you just can't stop trembling from the fear.
I was diagnosed with GAD a couple of weeks ago and the part of where you know you shouldn’t be worried about something but you are is so very true. Sometimes I’ll be worried over something someone said to me but I shouldn’t be so I’ll sit there for hours trying to decode it. (That’s just an example) the seeing things such as the people or stuff when lights are off isn’t necessarily true sometimes I do panic myself to the point where I think I hear breathing but usually it ends up being my own heart beat or breathing. Anxiety can be very difficult to deal with and I just want anyone who is going through this or something similar you’re not alone. I promise you.
Living with anxiety was just making your life hard, I just wanna back the old times that I don't have this anxiety. 😔
This video is such a boom. I'm very scared almost every night to see shadows in the dark, and the fear I felt watching this video was the same one. Thank you Kat for this explendit videos, I think you're very talented.
perfect representation of anxiety. i love that you showcase the genuine feeling. not how it looks, or how someone else looks when anxiety is present. the feeling i got in my chest, the heavy breathing and the sunken feeling in my stomach is identical to my anxiety. your work is incredible.
i would like to add that your creativity and control in your videos is so inspiring. many videos of yours have brought me to tears. keep doing what your doing
This was a really cool way to show anxiety, especially in the school where the lights went out, then u went back and had the pills then could go further before the lights flickered. Really really reminded me of me, calming down somewher by myself and each time making it a bit further then running back to be by myself. That was a long way to describe what I wanted to say. But amazing way of showing it, thank you
“turn up the volume and enjoy”
*me* turns down volume
I just started supporting you monthly, it isn't a lot at all, but its all I can offer at the moment. I appreciate that you're using your awesome talent to be a voice for important issues!
Thank you, every dollar counts. :)
Wow. I never thought my fear of the dark and my scary imagination was a generalized anxiety disorder. I understood that my constant worrying about "real" things was my anxiety, but it never occurred to me that being afraid of my imagination was anxiety. Thank you for this video!
Jackie Ramirez it's not always generalized anxiety disorder, I'm sorry you experience anything similar to it but please don't put a label on it unless you're diagnosed.
Yeah. Anxiety feels like you’re always waiting for something bad to happen, like in the film whenever it went black you always excepted something bad to happen and you got nervous. If you are worried that you have some type of anxiety, definitely go check with a doctor before diagnosing yourself :) sorry you’re struggling... stay strong
Buffalo Bill I am diagnosed lol. Started with separation anxiety. Thanks for your concern!
this is so spot on for me. especially that ending with the shadow. at first you can't really make out if there's something moving then it starts to move in on you and you feel like you're losing control. it's as of something like a dark phantom is inside your mind tormenting you. you feel like your fighting with your own mind to stay grounded and not fall into that spiraling vortex of panic and claustrophobic feelings caving in on you. constantly feeling on edge, it's done so well. I observed my emotions as I was watching this and immediately thought to myself, "this feels so familiar....oh right that's what I feel when I'm overwhelming anxious and on the verge of panic. always feeling like there's that shadow looming over you waiting to wrap itself around you're entire body till you feel your chest caving in, you can't breathe, your body starts to feel flushed hot and tingly and your heart feels like it's going to fall out of your chest, you hear your heavy pulsing heartbeat in your ears sounding like theyre filled with water, you can hear your rapid breathing in your ears....it feels like a constant nightmare
Your videos really opened my mind to the metal disorders, they make me realize that people that are affected by emntal disorders arent crazy people, they are normal people, with a normal dicease, that affect a lot of others, and this videos give me courage to get help about my anxiety, thank you very much kat, and keep with you excelent work and following your dreams, big hug.
But this is not how I feel. Anxiety, is irrational fear true. But the fear is not like horror type as portrayed here.
This is a panic attack video. 😥
I wouldn’t say this film is a horror. It’s got more of a tense atmosphere, no jumpscares like you’d find in a classic horror film, at least that’s what I was trying to convey. The ghost is not real. The whole thing is a metaphor for anxiety. Cheers! :)
I experience this feeling regularly and it often leads me to having a panic attack
Dont give up
Agreed
Blue Dot kinda true...this is more like a panic attack
Najpier jutuby, pozniej HBO. No I Oscar of course. Mark my words :p
A na sam koniec - Leonardo! :D
:D
Anita Sadowska Dokładnie! Świetny montaż, świetna jakość, Netflix chętnie przyjmie! 😉
Wow I love how you tried a new thing with your film..and it worked 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🌸
Na słuchawkach i w zaciemnionym pokoju można dostać zawału, a przyspieszone bicie serca to minimum :D
I couldn't watch it till the end, had to exit as soon as the creature started coming up. But the situation in the building when the lights went down reminded me of how yesterday I had my theatre classes and all of the sudden lights went down, and I was the only person to scream. I was truly terified, to the point when one of my younger colleagues asked me whether I was okay, and I said yes, but while we were standing there after class I heard this little electricity clicking regularly and after fighting for a few clicks I gave up, said that I'm sorry but I can't handle it and then left. I had to walk out take a few breaths and listen to some music, because I was still scared.
you are a legendary filmmaker. wow.
amazing work, yet again.
I realized that I could pull away from the video at any time, being a (somewhat) mentally healthy person. But I imagine people with anxiety disorders living as if the video was real life.
This video is amazing! It would be really interesting to have a video about Borderline Personality Disorder or Distant Personality Disorder.
I feel like she would. But like she's said before, she only has anxiety. So she doesn't know what other things are like.
YOURE BACK!! I’ve been waiting for a video :) I love you! And keep up the great work! You’re one of the only youtubers that make an impact with what they do
this is literally the best way to explain my anxiety bc i cant even tell to anyone how it feels like and yet no one want to believe how i feel too
I kept on refreshing your channel the whole evening and woah, that was amazing! The way you used sound to create that atmosphere was so on point. I'm never disappointed with your works and you only get better and better!
All of your short films are amazing and so relatable. Im honestly gonna show this to people who ask about my anxiety
I have GAD and when the shadow appeared I started chanting "no" over and over again lol. Very accurate
Dziękuję. Uświadamiasz ludziom co czują osoby twkie jak ja... Dzięki tobie nie czuję się aż tak samotna...
I have never been THAT proud on anyone on youtube, even though I don't know you, I'm sure that you has a tender soul, and that's exactly what we need in our cruel world. Thank you, you do a great thing for people - showing what we can't explain by words to each other. I feel a little better knowing that others can relate to what I feel, what is of course horrible, but at least it's good not to be alone in this. I just understood that my fear is not normal and it's nothing to be ashamed for, because it's not who I am for real. Thank you. Just thank you.
Thank you so much for making this powerful video! I was looking for a video just like this because I want to experience what my good friend is goung through in her darkest hours. I love what you do on this channel and the videos you make. You are very unique in your style and I have never seen anything like it before on RUclips. I knew I did the right thing by subscribing.
The most saddest part is when you're scared of waking up..... because when you open your eyes, you know that the anxious monster will come out again to take control of your life.
this is one of the best videos i’ve seen from you so far. keep creating!!
Thank you for your videos. For some reason watching these relax me because it seems like I’m finally understood.
Wow, Kat, you never cease to amaze me. I love how well you presented this mental disorder (I loved your other ones on anxiety/panic attacks too) because I really really connected to it- that this is something that can feel very real for me- for a lot of people, even though we know it isn't. Only time will pass when you are fighting your way through something as terrifying as this.
This made my heart beating SO fast. That's just what I experience every day.
There are moments during the day where my monster leaves me alone, but most of the time he compresses my heart and my mind, making me worried about everything. And when you don't have nothing to stop him with, you can just lay there, scared, wondering if it will never end
Kat your videos are absolutely phenomenal, sometimes I feel like you’ve travelled into my head because you explain my anxiety better than I ever could.
These videos are so amazing to help people understand what it’s like, thank you for making them.
this is so good😭 you’re an amazing director you could go so far with this, i’m in actual tears you’re amazing 💙😫
Your movies are beautiful. Crafted so well, topics so good and narrative so great.Thank you.
I’ve never seen a video that describes what I feel every day so well I only have it really bad when I’m alone or I’m the dark, I remember last October my parents went on their anniversary trip and my anxiety was so bad I kept seeing a recording red dot where ever I went and then I heard a loud bang/knock on our door it was the worst anxiety I had ever had. I will call my family and tell them someone is outside all the time. It’s so hard for people to understand what it’s like to have anxiety or constant fear. You have to try to ignore it around people so they don’t think your crazy, and when you open up people just look at you. Thank you so much for making this video! It makes me feel less alone.
You are truly and utterly the most intelligent and inspiring woman. You show people that these disorders are real. You show them that they’re no joke and I respect you massively for that. Thank you, I am forever a fan of your work
I hate how when I tell people my problems they say stuff like “just try not to worry” it’s not that easy. It’s not as easy as just forgetting it. It’s there constantly in my mind telling me I’m. Not okay, thinking of every possible scenario that could go wrong. And I have to live with it because I can’t stop it no matter what.
This is beyond relatable for me omg
4:46 gave me so much anxiety since I've had hallucinations and nightmares of almost the same girl ;-;
Yea, you saying that sparked a memory that gave me chills.
Drama queen..
YOU ARE AWESOME!!! Thank you so much for putting this together for all of us who live with this every day.
This really made me realise how anxious and fearful I am 24/7. I did have to skip the end, because it gave me a panic attack, because I imagine that every night - so it got a bit real! But other than that, I am so glad someone took the words right out of my mouth for the world to see what it's really like. Thank you.
Your films are superb, my dear! They oddly make me feel at ease. You are by far my favorite gal on RUclips! Xx
Just like your other films this one is also amazing. I love that you present these issues in such a creative way instead of just talking about them. It makes people able to at least partially understand how others feel. And on the other hand people who go throuth this are able to feel understood and supported which is priceless
Hope you stay strong and motivated 💕
Amazing job You’re extremely talented and your videos always manage to represent perfectly how people suffering from anxiety really feel like
Thank you for all that you do... I adore all your videos from messages to the style of your editing and execution. Also, the aura of elegance you carry when you are talking to the camera is incredibly mesmerizing. I wish you many many successes so you can continue to produce these videos for the world :)
You’re one of the only people I know that has makes videos that perfectly articulate my experience and it’s honestly so refreshing. Probably going to show this to all of my friends 😄
Wonderful job and thank you
I love your work, this genre was so interesting to see from your perspective. As an idea i think you’d present dissociative identity disorder incredibly through your visuals. ❤️
I’m normally not scared of any thrillers or horror films, but the feeling of dread was so similar to what I feel 24/7 that I couldn’t help but cry. I want this feeling to go away and be able to breathe for once. Thank you for spreading awareness.
Thank you. You capture the struggle we face perfectly. Simply, thank you.
gosh dang it, i just discovered your videos and i can't stop watching them, but i get so scared of horror movies and the build up of the sounds and tension that i wouldn't be able to sleep for days if i watched this. im only a few seconds in, and im already terrified. I'm sure this is a great production and i just wanted to say your films are aMaZiNg.
The most important help that one needs is for the one that no one can easily find out and for the person itself who can't actually sometimes figure out what's happening..."Mental Illness "...sometimes its really helpful to "Name" the feeling that we're going through.. And All of you passionate people out there helping us through your valuable awareness videos make us feel less alone..Thanks Kate... Really Thank You😄
Whenever people ask me to describe how my anxiety feels, I can never describe it, I can never find a way to put it into words, or when they say to just think of something positive or that it’s just all in my head, there is no way to put into words the amount of dread and shear fear that I feel from even just minuscule things, like the sound of the static when a tv isn’t being connected, the shapes that your mind makes in the darkness that burns it’s way into your subconsciousness, the jolt of danger at even from the slightest movement in your peripherals, it isn’t something easily described to those who haven’t felt or dealt with it and it is commonly misconstrued, but videos like this help people like myself have something to show to help people visualize what everyday life for myself and many others feels like, keep up the amazing work and I hope you continue to make videos like this so that people with all sorts of issues like this can have something to help them show and explain their circumstances, and thank you to anyone who took time out of their day to read this comment
this is way too accurate for me, ive had gad for about 10 years now and this is almost exactly how it feels most of the time- tysm for bringing attention to these situations
Anxiety has controlled a lot of my life and only when facing it I found freedom within. It's always lingering but the more you face it, the more it disappears. I hope I can find more like-minded people in Brisbane who want to explore facing fear and making content around that. This video was so well done, appreciate your work and just subbed to your channel.
I feel so relaxed just by looking at your videos and the dark sound effects.
Oh boy, that last shot... D: Absolutely love your work.
Stacey Lebel I was too scared to even watch till the end, what was it?
The whole film really spoke to me on a personal level. The whole shadow, and creeping and scratching/screaming affects are like what’s going on in my head. Especially the ending, my heart started pounding in my chest, like when I actually get anxiety. Well done.❤️
by the way i love your art. its beautiful, your film making talent is also so astonishing. simply wow makes me emotional every time
That was such an experience! Everyone is asleep and I'm laying in bed in the dark with ear phones on. Crazy what a five minute video can do. Love your work by the way ❤️
Oh my god this is so me. Especially the beginning. Honestly i can’t explain how much this is me, and how i relate to it all
Your Work is always so well thought out & beautifully done. Thank-You.
this is so real
The combination of visuals and audio were just truly amazing girl !!!!!!! SHITTT !! I must say that I had to pause the video like four times to get myself on and keep watching, that was amazing
I love your work
Greetings from Colombia
YESS IT'S FINALLY OUT!!!! I've been waiting ages for this project and it certainly didn't disappoint! Much love Kat, you're crazy talented!
This is literally how i feel it's an unexplainable feeling and it can't be put in words it just digs up the inner corners of your brain and mess around with it and it's a terrible feeling to experience it. Btw i just found out your channel and i actually can relate every single one of them and about how this video ends the reason why i always leave the lights on at night. anyways love your channel ❤️
You're one of the best filmmakers I've seen, all of your work is great, I'd love to see a borderline video..
ok the ending rlly freaked me out like as the noise got louder my heart started beating harder and I could feel it pounding. ;-;
i’ve been struggling with GAD my whole life, and you hit so many of my most fearful and panicked situations. when i’m alone, getting in my car/ driving at night, and dark rooms before bed. In all of these situations my mind plays tricks on me and makes shadows look like they’re alive. when the shadowy figure popped out from the corner i actually screamed “that is literally my worst fear”. and it is. any one of my daily delusions coming true is the worst thing that could ever happen to me. and yet i know that none of them are real. but i’m still scared stiff. Thank you for making something so relatable that i almost cried tears of joy at the end. Someone else gets it, and i’m not crazy. thank you.
I would love a film about disassociation and how that plays into anxieties. i will be supporting you and your art as soon as i am financially able to do so. i love what you do.
this is so amazing, i love your videos💕💕 i would love to see a video on phobias of certain things, such as needles or spiders
Ok that really built up and i dont have Anxiety usually ever and that made almost fall over. Great job !
I got shivers all over my body, it's like you injected the message right into my veins.
And you really should make a horror movie.
Defiantly clicked my anxiety on as soon as the lights went out I had to take a break for a second every word is so well spoken your so talented and it really opens up people's minds about what I have and what ornery people have❤
I used to struggle with gad, and honestly it was so terrible. You could NEVER escape the anxiety and darkness that was eternity. After years of fighting I’m feeling okay almost never anxious. It’ll get better my peeps
I am living with seperation anxiety, claustrophobia and depression. Your videos discribe everything so perfect. Now other people can finally understand what it is like!
I’m 12 and I have this disorder I showed it to my family they were speechless
If you find a moment during this video where your heart starts to race in your chest and your breathing picks up... That's the most accurate. Compound that with intrusive worry thoughts of how things could go wrong or are going to go wrong. It's so tiring and a lot of people can't sleep because they're exhausted. Medication had helped me.
Perfect sound design! Amazing tension. I got goosebumps :)
I knew my sensory kiddo had GAD when she told me at 4 years old "mommy I'm not afraid of the dark.. I am scared of the unknown" ... great job this is amazing...
This is more like an anxiety attack but when she’s talking is more like normal anxiety
And this about sums up my paranoia and GAD! My favourite time with paranoia is when it's 5am but when I close my eyes I imagine monsters in the dark, so I have to stay up with the lamp on, even though I know they're not there.
It's incredible how accurate all of your videos are, even if you don't experience every single one of these mental illnesses. Thank you for creating all of these videos.
I loved it! Thanks for make this to show us what we might don't understand.
I couldn't make it through this video, it hit me too hard. It captured how I feel when my anxiety is acting up. Thank you for all the videos you do on mental health awareness!
This is incredible.. just well done, this is amazing
Thank you so much for doing this. I get exactly like this when it is dark and i am alone. I am super super sensitive to horror movies even if it is just sound i can’t bear it. My friends and family thinks it is ridiculous and until this point so did i because it wasn’t a mental illnes and i didn’t see anyone else dealing with the same thing. But now i know i have an actual problem that i can adress to.
The last minutes is kill me haha... Good job and smooth .. I like the smooth of the plot
A horror film is really clever way to depict anxiety. As always, great cinematography, Kat.
So accurate. Well done. Sometimes it's hard to explain what it's like to other people.
