Since Nadiya Hussain won Bake Off in 2015 she’s rarely been off our screens. But behind the scenes Nadiya suffers from extreme anxiety and debilitating panic attacks, which she’s had since childhood. For decades, she has kept her anxiety a secret, ashamed to speak out.
She’s never had a proper diagnosis but thinks she has an anxiety disorder, and with around 5 million people suffering from the condition in the UK, Nadiya is not alone.
Nadiya wants to find out if her anxiety was something she was born with, fearing she might pass it onto her children. At Kings College London, Nadiya hopes groundbreaking research into the role of genetics and environment on anxiety disorders can give her the answers she needs.

Am kind of surprised that she has anxiety and its this bad. I've watched her presenting a cake to the Queen, cook on the show this morning so many times. wouldn't know she has anxiety. Now I know am not alone. Thank you to the BBC for downloading this.
livelove &laugh I don’t buy that she has crippling anxiety. Someone who has serious anxiety issues would NEVER do any of those things and they would resent being in the public eye
@@lepetitchat123 It might not be generalised anxiety - it could be a more specific anxiety - specific situations. You shouldn't judge people like this. You don't actually know what they're going through.
DTonesXD well I have philosophical and social anxiety and I think she is not the right person to speak up for people like me
She might have a bit of anxiety but not as serious as she made it out to be. There are far more people who suffer from crippling anxiety and can’t even function in daily life , let alone take part in a high pressure baking competition on national tv.
The part where she said she has no friends, I totally don’t believe her at all
She even has kids !
If you have crippling anxiety , having kids is the last thing you wanna do ( if you have empathy).
@@lepetitchat123 with all due respect. Shut up and get your head out your arse. Who are you to sit there and jugde what someone faces. Anxity affects everyone differently . They way you cope with yours is different to hers. I swear you give people with mental health a bad name.
DTonesXD I am entitled to my opinion. It just doesn’t add up. I feel she faked her anxiety
Having severe anxiety I can agree it's one of the most isolating conditions honestly
i physically wouldnt be able to get on a train just like that aint no way
Yeah that wa the only part where I thought she shown signs of anxiety I couldn't even have the courage to go out the door and be on that show I also have pyscosis so it's no good
HazeBats92 we should talk
I have extreme anxiety and ptsd
@@kushbats4504 it can feel like everyone is running you over and nobody understands, because they really can't unless they have been through anxiety.
Hearing her talk about anxiety made me cry. It’s something I struggle with and I’m so glad she was able to overcome her fears.
Same here.
That's the thing I don't think neurotypicals understand - anxiety is automatic intrusive thoughts that are intense, repetitive and relentless. It's not something that can be stopped from happening just by saying "oh just stop worrying". You have to very intentionally tell yourself to stop listening to a voice that sounds exactly like the voice that also tells you something as benign as "I need to shower". And it takes so much intentionality and so much energy and I have incredible admiration for those of us who do it every single day.
I can stop myself sometimes, and then sometimes I make myself sick from worrying. Wellbutrin helps, but sometimes it doesn’t matter
I'm a huge fan of Nadiya before all this, but now my respect has increased ten fold,,,,,and this prog must have been an inspiration to so many people
I cried from the minute it started , it was like wartching myself shes such a brave woman, i now know im not alone , thankyou for making this documentary its a life changer xxx
I always thought her voice was very shaky like she’s just been crying or about to cry, it’s like the anxiety within comes out in her speaking voice
I m a man and I saw myself partly in nadia and I m gonna seek professional help.
Thanks nadia 🙏🏼
Anxiety is a weird one. I've never been an introverted person, always been quite outgoing and talkative so I don't think my anxiety is social in nature, but at random points I will just get this strange feeling that something either within me or around me doesn't feel right, and there is no way out of it. I remember it got to its worst when I was in lectures at university and had no immediate way of getting out of that room, on a number of occasions I would have panic attacks but have no idea why, that's what the worst thing about anxiety is for me, it's just so unpredictable in nature and can come about spontaneously.
West Side is da best OH MY GOSH!!! This happens to me too! It has even happened around family functions. I did not know it was anxiety or panic. It’s some I can not control
The worst time is when you start feeling coming...Ooh gosh
oh my goodness i think i just realised why i keep getting weird feelings all the time! thank you for helping me figure it out :)
❤️
When you are about to sleep think about is there really no way out of it?
An excellent programme, well done BBC and well done Nadiya.
Nadia is so beautiful, inside and out ❤️ Keep thriving!
I can bloody well think of a bloody sight better than her!
Inside and out!!
How lovely is Nadia.. thank you for doing this..its so useful
I couldn't watch the whole video...I'm sorry. I was starting to get anxious and panicky just watching but well done for making this video. You should be so proud of yourself.
Nadiya hussain is such a great lady
Thank you Nadia for doing this. I have driving anxiety 😟 it’s an everyday struggle and I hate myself for it as it’s limiting the things I can do.
I found the hardest part was accepting I need help. I kept brushing aside like I did all my life just to survive. I still have a long way to go. Many mental health clinics will only step up in times of crisis. If I'm in crisis then it's to late I close back down again
Hi Benjamin. Just wondering what u doing and if you draw or paint. I have noticed when I go to places around nature I feel better
@@universalassistant1461 Hi Blessed Mrs, I took up playing the violin. I have found it very relaxing and also a way of passing many hours at a time. I used to draw quite a lot. Mostly what I did was based more on Star Wars which led me to the violin to learn to play the music after being inspired by another RUclips violinist.
I cried when she talked about the voices. It destroys me to my core because for half of my life I’ve pushed away opportunities by giving in and listening to them.
Anxiety is truly horrible. The rising panic of not knowing takes such an emotional toll. I once nearly had a massive panic attack and was hysterical over the fact that my then pastor had an issue with me because he flatly refused to give me the least idea what it was. I knew it wasn't good, but the not knowing made me hysterical. I adore Nadiya for her talent and her transparency to bring her deeper self to the fore in order to help people.
Love you, Nadiya! Thank you for bringing awareness to anxiety!! You're so, so brave! ❤️
"You live inside your head". Yep that's me but only seven days a week and whenever the hell I'm awake.
I'm 38 seconds in and already crying. Speak on it Nadiya!
I love Nadiya. She is so relatable and real
I have loved Nadiya and her amazing personality from day one and like the rest would never have picked up that she suffers in this way 😕 it just goes to show we should be kinder to each other as everyone is fighting some personal battle of their own. Great show highlighting the huge issues we have in this modern day society, we may be physically better off but emotionally we are suffering! My respect levels and admiration for Nadiya has gone up a level for being so brave and admitting to her daily struggles 😘 (P.S. May those bullies in her school who were so vile and evil in their racist actions to cause her so much trauma that it rippled throughout her life watch this and be ashamed!)😡
I agree, kindness goes a long long way in helping people cope with mental health. I know it has helped me
Well said Rukhsana 👍🏼

@@benjaminr2568 Reduce negative thoughts with a simple practice. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts-anxiety. For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back straight, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. Slowly the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Day or night, when taking a walk, when reading, on the phone, before sleep etc sit or lie down and observe your breath. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life. Avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Best wishes Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.
@@shyaaammeneen63 Thank you Shyaaam, I will definitely try what you have suggested. I think we've all had a difficult time recently and hope everyone else finds peace and good mental health, again I thank you for your reply and suggestion.
i respect Nadiya a lot and admire her for having the courage to reach out for help. it is very brave of her. :)
I recite law holwala quawata...n astaghfar.n recite Quran n during salah long sajood..it helps me a lottt
Love you Nadia! I know anxiety can be debilitating at times,it is a constant battle every day! You are doing so well for facing your fears and even doing the Bake off! Weldone to you!Much love and keep thriving!.🤗♥️
🐖🐖🐖 🐖 🐖 🐖 🐖 🐖 🤣
she is very brave, i admire her for that. ^^
She’s such a sweetheart
It's stops me doing loads of things in life. I struggle to get a job because of it . It scares me to go out on my own specially when going in shops and that. It's an awful thing to have . Had it all my life. My social anxiety is the worst.
I can totally relate to you. I struggled to get a job for the past 3years because of my anxiety. I have only 4months ago started seeing a life coach who has helped me get through it, and now I'm finally starting my dream job next month.
Please don't give up on yourself, I know it's scary, but keep trying.
Try hypnotherapy. Good luck
@JRUSS
For how much of your life have you sought medical attention. And has it helped you?
@@MS-kn1fm how do you even get a life coach ?
Thank you for sharing your inner world a bit, Nadiya. I am married to a person with anxiety and hearing from you helps me understand what he experiences.
i’m so proud of her! phobias are sooo crippling and the fact that she did it makes me sooo happy
Nadia you are an excellent role model for girls, especially Asian girls today. Big fan of this lady.
Bless her I've suffered exactly the same thing.
Shes so lovely
Nadiya, thank you so much for making this documentary. I also suffer from depression and panic attacks under certain conditions. This social distancing has made it even harder. At time crippling. I now have all the time in the world to finish some important university work and some days it’s hard for me muster the emotional strength to do it. I feel like I have to choose between my job and my homework and for 2 weeks the homework loses every time.
Wow.she experiences anxiety in the same way I do with college.but it feels so much more worth it than normal when you keep accomplishing something your terrified of
Cait Parker I was the same when I was in school - keep pushing yourself to challenge your anxieties - CBT really helps if that’s something you would like to do? Keep going girl, you are not alone ❤️
I am really glad that she took this on i am british Muslim and it’s my generation before am 37 and if you can’t see the physical changes then your not I’ll you are acting.
It’s veeg scary place to be as the generation before us was bought up in a different country where mental illness is never even acknowledged forget talking or treatment.
Education is from home from grass level we should help someone even if just with a smile you make someone feel better. In my generation growing up we had each other back as neighbours community etc now we are so enclosed in this media world we have forgotten the signs of simple communication of face to face it pick up the phone.
This programme should be also dubbed in other languages so to get to a better and wider audience.
Every single person who is reading this regardless of race,colour,gender,sexual preferences or education status did me each person is beautiful awesome unique and talented in thier own way and remember life is to short to worry or please everyone else.onlh think about what you want and each day small things can make the bigger picture.never give up always walk through the storm and remember to speak if you feel necessary no matter how small best way ya to keep a journal a dairy to record all the thoughts because then you can look back and reflect.
My best wishes to all reading this as you are the perfect one let’s start believing it. Fear is a healthy emotion but don’t let it overuse your life.
🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖 ❤️🤣
You're not sick, you're a beautiful person.
You are sick, you are a beautiful person
First step of getting better is admitting it
“everyone is gonna see, everyone is gonna know that you’re weak, everyone is gonna know that you’re sick”
I have anxiety and panic attacks when I go whit the metro or when I'm in a store. It helps me alot to don't gif a shit what other people (stranger's) in public thinks anymore. I go to sit on the floor where I'm and wait when it's over. Nobody can do something to help me I have to do it my self. Lucky I'm on this point and I almost don't get it anymore. I try to talk whit people about this to let them understand it more. I'm happy that nadiya speaks about this. Nobody should feel alone.
Very brave if you have never suffered from anxiety you will never understand 👍well done
Love you Nadiya!! You are very brave ❤🙏
Wow, you’re amazing! I had no idea that you had anxiety challenges, but to see you take that first step and overcome it but by bit is very encouraging. I have Asperger’s, Multiple Sclerosis and Fibromyalgia. Your story helps me. Thanks Nadiya! God bless you and your family.
Sorry I meant bit by bit. Stupid auto correct for the spelling.
I filmed a response vlog praising the documentary and especially Nadiya.. Loved the program and please make more like this...
She's a beautiful human being
Well done Nadia* Thank you for sharing with everyone. Great empathy! The catastrophic mistreatment you suffered was never acceptable on any level whatsoever. Having physical being on a physical plain is also to be affected, all be it unwillingly. Love - the greater spirit of our real connection - helps us through. May you always be safe. Sending you a lift, ever*** And also to any who would care to see it* Ange.
As an anxiety and panic sufferer of 20+ years, the hardest thing is to explain it to anyone else.
You are such a brave lady Nadia
Respect ✌
I needed to see/hear this , thankyou 💖
True i appreciate Nadiya, its helpfull
Nadyia can overcome her fear she is a strong fighter with her anxiety and all those people out there with mental health are fighters that can defeat mental health. I’m happy that I don’t have mental health at all which is good.
Well done for facing your anxiety head on! I love watching your shows ☺️ you inspire me!
My family are the reason for my anxiety attacks with them around I suffer without them I have panic attacks!
They just don’t want to acknowledge it
Nadia words are exactly how I feel.
Pique NY maybe speak to your school if your young or a community centre thing you can get help
This was a very moving documentary. As someone who has a degree of anxiety I could really sympathise. So much of modern day ‘anxiety’ though is self induced or brought on by putting one’s life out there on social media. There is absolutely no need to engage with social media at all, it has just become a modern disease affecting so many young people. There is nothing wrong with being completely different to your peers. Just be your own person and ignore, or better, just laugh off any criticism that may come your way. Life is a bit tough, and we should not expect it to be otherwise. We are brainwashed by media of all sorts to expect life to be smooth and that we should aim for perfection. But that is nonsense and totally unrealistic. Nearly everything we worry about as teenagers, will not matter in a few years on, and in truth does not really matter in the present. Don’t believe any sort of ‘influencer’ or what your mates think, just be your own self and you will realise very quickly that is gold!
I am just like Nadiya but she is braver than I am. I wish I had the guts to face my anxiety and try and get rid of it or diminish it in order to get out of my house and so called security perimeter and enjoy life before it is over.
Thank you
As a ptsd patient I am deeply in tears .
Dude what
You can't compare the two lmao
Love her...
Thank you so much !I have to send this to my family maybe they'll understand better my generalise anxiety and absolute fear of trains
Nadiya Hussain is awesome !
I got ptsd related anxiety due to very bad work relationship I stayed at for years. It comes at a flash and depending on the situation it can skyrocket and remain with me for days. Anxiety is the worst
Pls share access to watching the full documentary, it can be very helpful to many affected by anxiety all over the world..
Wel done i repect u so much for doing this
This triggered me a lot!!!
I sound just like this , I appreciate you please what helped
I am disappointed that I don't think the BBC has carried this on to a sensible conclusion. She has agreed she has 'situation safety behaviour' but at the end she seems to just be left to get on with it... she was already doing this and told it wasn't helping but given no helpful alternative...
I agree with you because thats exactly what i thought.....
❤️ stay strong
this is the exact anxiety and phobia i have, when she mentioned the panic attack and what she thought people are thinking omg that is exactly what i said to my therapist. in a weird way i’m happy i’m not alone in thinking that. i’m currently in cbt therapy and i’m at the stage that i’m exposing myself to the fear and going on trains with me therapist. i’m terrified but i know it will help in the long wrong because the fear is so paralysing and has really stopped me from doing so much. not being able to go on trains, tubes and planes has been really hard. i hope i can look back see how far i’ve come.
I can’t even speak on the phone without absolutely obliterating my pants
Mental health is helped by talking in a supportive manor but no rumours no bullying
I'm feeling like this right now I don't know if I have anxiety but I'm feeling something I can't describe I don't feel real its like I'm watching the people live there lives
i had suffer from panic desorder from my childhood but as you get older you need to accept them like your best friend .living with them is not easy panic attacks are horroible but studie them now and acceptance is very important nadya acceptance ok is easy to saiy but learn to welcome them and dont panic trust me i had been there many many times
acceptances is the key
Mental health is not a joke it’s need to be taken seriously.
I wish they would have more documentaries on Anxiety, as an anxiety victim I can honestly relate to Nadiya
I’ve suffered from anxiety since I was young but being on T V like Nadiya would make me worse
Such a beautiful soul and person
Hope one day you will win this fight 😉🌸
Well done nadiya
I have anxiety being in a room with a lot of ppl or meeting new ppl even if I’ve heard lots about them n it’s my first or second meeting I cant get past saying hi how are you coz I get my words jumbled which kills my confidence n I just want to bolt out the situation .. n I can never look them in the eyes my eyes are always wondering around😭 maybe I should get help..

In her Asia journey, Nadiya was going round all kind of sketchy places on dangerous modes of transport
There are always phases in anxiety . One day you can feel comfortable about something but the same gesture or thing can make you uncomfortable the very next day
She said she likes to plan ahead and planning helps her cope with the anxiety. So the series she did in Bangladesh was ‘preplanned’. Therefore, she was better prepared.
Bare in mind that her anxiety was triggered for having a deferent skin colour and this society was the cause. While in Bangladesh she feels at home coz every1 looks like her.
@Fatima Aziz thats really unfair. Anxiety comes in different stages. It has a lot to do with how you cope mentally and how you plan and envision yourself in a situation before it happens.
With someone who has lived with this for 16years. I applaud her for putting herself out there and doing it. We are the people that present ourselves as fine because we feel we have to be for others.
2 mins into this doc. i really like her, even with all the anxiety ect.
I love Nadiya and am glad she’s talking about anxiety and mental health. I don’t know how trauma informed this approach is, however. I was expecting a gentle conversation about anxiety, not a full blown exposure therapy session. The guy didn’t seem very caring and was just telling her over and over she had to face her fears. Meanwhile she is having a nervous system reaction telling her she’s in danger. I’m glad the exposure therapy ended up feeling helpful, but nervous system science and somatic regulation-based trauma work show that providing more activation is not helpful for the body to learn to heal. (Check out Organic Intelligence or Somatic Experiencing as modalities, for example.) Anxiety is rooted in childhood dysregulation from times we felt things were out of our control; logic alone that things “aren’t actually that bad” is the last thing we need in those moments. I feel like there are lots of other ways this episode could have gone and ways to work with anxiety. But not as dramatic for a news story, I guess.
I used to have panic attacks of me going to have a stroke! It started suddenly even after me having kids. When fist time happened I almost killed myself out of fear because it's the feeling that it's actually happening. It might be related to the death of some one I know though she wasn't close to me but it's was shocking. It took me a year or two to get back to normal. I didn't get any treatment but I worked it through me talking to myself and through strengthening my faith in Allah. It's been a while !, but it's better once it goes don't remember it which now I do! It could be back anytime! But the well to keep the strength , and above all I think " fear" is behind all the psychological issues, it's the fear once you face it it will go.
❤️
Having anxiety is being happy asleep and waking up in to a nightmare
I need three cocodamols to get on a train
You said what I would've said to Everybody, it's terrible feeling all those things and can't express them because they're gonna think you're a weak.
Jesus bless you Nadiya 🤗 you are awesome 💖
Can some one explain to me how i get connected to a group video chat we say when watching program and she was chatting with
Please
I'm at end I just woke up today and I have a panic attack 👊 done I missed my exam because I think I can't pass it
Ayoon Ismail I hope you find someone you can talk to about how you are feeling. Can I recommend the Muslim Youth Helpline, who can offer support and guidance. Look after yourself
Anyone know where i can see the whole programne ? BBC IPLAYER no longer showing it. Also I find that i could get on the train but the anxiety wont go away until i get off it and go home and lie down. I love Nadiya , she's a Luton girl. Bless her .
I have anxiety your not alone
I would be anxious to do that on my own, but if I’m with someone I wouldn’t, is that anxiety? I hope the show will be clear on whether you should look into it or whether it doesn’t apply to you
Sofa2Snowdon her anxiety is definitely not the most common kind. Can’t take a train on her own but can do interviews on tv without any sign of anxiety. What kind of anxiety is this? Claustrophobia or what? But she said she has no friends. I find it implausible. There are many question marks. Another typically shallow program from bbc
sawadee Nope it’s the same for me. At work I come off confident and with no worries. Behind closed doors I can’t take a train without creating a plan and going through it multiple times. You should’ve seen me when they started work at Euston, I nearly cried.
@@smartipants123 Same. In school and university nobody would notice and as soon as i can walk with somebody it gets better. but when I have to go somewhere alone I have to have a full plan about what bus I am gonna take and when it arrives and what I can do if it isn´t coming and so on.
medication helps as well nadya but more important is how do you handle them acceptance is the key dora
Watching this set me into full panic attack I have really bad axienty and the thing that sets me off is not knowing where I am going so cars I hate I will scream just to get away but my friends and family make me stay and I freak out really bad multiple times then I am fine but I love long car rides but hills, edges, gravel, music, and having windows down set me off but relizing the situation that no one would put me in a bad spot and I am aware and safe which takes a hot minute I am fine
I have only recently admitted to myself that i have anxiety. Its held me back from doing anything with my life... I literally dont feel as if I've grown into an adult, as I've avoided having so many life experiences, e.g higher education and work...and I dont know how to change it. So I'm stuck in a shitty marriage coz I dont think I can do anything else
well at least now you've realised it! that's the first step. ^^
they will go away but dont think about it let them pass trogh your body
I never know what kicks my attacks off I feel like she said every one gonna find out I'm not a strong person
Is it a chemical imbalance? Is it treated by medication and/or therapy?
@Althea Gray
It is a mental disorder, so yes there is something in need of repair in parts of the brain; the wiring is faulty. It is more involved than a so-called chemical balance. The chemical balance theory is just that, a working theory. The evidence is very strong that dopamine pathways are highly severed in schizophrenia. Major depression and manic depression are under the same umbrella of this working theory, but with different neurotransmitters.

Similar to flooding therapy?
