Intrusive thoughts happen when your conscience mind misinterprets the subconscious. It's supposed to be a mechanism by which the subconscious warns you of danger or a threat or something wrong. When you get an intrusive thought, it doesn't mean that the subconscious wants you to do it, it's the opposite, it wants you to avoid whatever it is in the intrusive thought.
Just when I start feeling that “hey! I did well today”, my anxiety comes back. It’s exhausting! You give me hope. A million thanks for talking to people like me.
This is fantastic! I'm sending it to girlfriend w OCD, others with depression and anxiety. I just was terminated from a job at a school where I was verbally attacked in the office by 2 supervisors about a ridiculous thing that they blew out of proportion. I do think they wanted to get rid of me since November and found a way to do it. Very sick.
My intrusive thoughts is my biggest enemy especially with health anxiety. I always think stress is literally going to kill me right on the spot. I avoid problems, confrontations, and even my negative family.
Me too!!!! ( but I try & think abt Sanford & Son..... comedy...... father constantly said ....I’m coming! Looking up to heaven..... 20 years later....... lol......Dennis taught me to say thank you tonSENSATIONS my body gives me to let me know I’m ALIVE...... ..... Stay strong....... we will have GOOD day , GREAT days & Bad days.......... but this too Shall pass.......❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏
Yup same here and bunch of the battle is identifying our reliance on these thoughts in which then give us physical feelings. Off down the rabbit hole. However, these have helped me turn that garbage off. You just need to be persistent and with patience you will win.
best thing that worked for me.. Meditation, jogging, cut out caffeine, and as for suplement : inositol and take gaba before bed - 2 weeks later. mind is clear
Thanks so much for the video. I struggle with OCD, and because of memories of when I was around 9 to 11 years old resurfacing of when I inappropriately touched 3 young girls, my anxiety blew to the roof, and these obsessive thoughts that I could be a p*do/child m0l3st0r was eating me up. And it was hurting because I am 29, and prior to 2021, I never had these thoughts overpower me. I am seeing a therapist which is helping me because I am learning to forgive myself with what I done as a kid. But this video is helpful, and I am going to take some of your pointers to help me. Thank you So much!
Sounds like the cancel culture and the me too movement may have triggered these deep feelings. You were a kid then, and your struggle with these thoughts should tell you that you are not them.
I learned today that an element of my anxiety is a fear of being anxious in front of people, and so me trying to hide my vulnerabilities and emotions from others, when I'm in public especially, just intensifies my anxious feelings! But to me it's terrifying to show people if I'm having a nervous breakdown or even just a moment of anxiety
I am the same! I can see my inner child is trying to protect me from anyone seeing my imperfections and realities, to stay safe and liked, but it's self defeating.
Speaking right to me, as a mom I began fearing my child’s safety constantly after the minute she was born and until recently it had taken over my life. I feel grateful for your wisdom and the progress I have made because of it 🙏
I suffer with bad health anxiety but just by watching your videos on here you have inspired me to start my journey of recovery which I never thought was possible and not going to look back now! You really are a god send, thank you so much!!
I have been suffering debilitating anxiety for over two years but this episode is absolutely crippling. At present every psychologist etc is booked out and I'm grateful to you for providing the best explanation of 'you are not your thoughts' that I have heard.
I love the cloud exercise. It spoke to me a lot, it helped me detach from the thoughts and realize that I am not them. It also brought me relief to visualize the thoughts as clouds because it now makes them feel so much less real. They're not me, I am not them, they're just regular clouds passing by and I can sit and contemplate the world until they pass. Thank you for this! 🙏🏻❤
Hello Dennis, I'm suffering from a lot of anxiety over the past 6 months panic attacks, Depression, insomnia, I found this video very helpful, sincere and powerful, thank you sir. Cead mile failte from Ireland 🇮🇪🍀.
I am suffering badly with health anxiety. I’m in pain all of the time, I’ve stopped driving and rarely leave my house now. I have an MRI scan tomorrow but so far nothing has been found from all other test so now I’m catastravising that there is something sinister in my head. I hear all the advice and I try to meditate etc but I just can’t seem to pull myself out of it. I’m so desperate to live but my fear of illness and death is killing me. I sympathise with anyone suffering like this
@@limbraden8808 some professional help on health anxiety needed? There's a thing called 'the worried well' it may be that talking it through with a clinical psychologist would help free you from being under its control and shift you back into the driving seat. Good luck in your journey, I truly hope you'll find your way through this.
I know it’s scary but that’s fear you doing it’s job. I will never ever kill myself over thoughts that are intrusive or fear or depression. Things will get better somehow. We are stronger than thoughts and thoughts can even be pleasant
omg thank u for this, It is horrible to have thoughts in which you think you are capable of harming someone, even your family, but little by little I am learning to identify them and not give them importance🙏🏻
I suffer because of intrusive thought for a years and it really hurt my mental. But thanks to you i get a new insight to overcome this. I send pray to you, Allah SWT bless you with joy and health. Thank you
I REALLY LIKE THIS FELLOW TRAVELER AND YOU DON'T GET THE IMPRESSION HE'S AFTER YOUR MONEY. HE KNOWS HE CAN'T SEE EVERYONE WHO WANTS HELP AND GIVES GENEROUSLY
Thank you so much for this. I've been suffering from intrusive thoughts for some time, and i've finally decided I simply don't want to live like this anymore. Your ideas actually seem workable and make sense to me. Looking forward to trying.
I’m crying so much. I hate this, I had one bad nightmare that shook me to my core a month ago and have been having intrusive thoughts since then. I cry everyday I just want this to go away. I should be enjoying life but feel so stuck.
I love this video, I’m just now figuring out that the thoughts I’ve been having are intrusive thoughts and they’re just popping out of nowhere throughout the day, with also anxiety, which I also just committed on your other video about health anxiety, I apologize for comment too much lol. But this video really helped me to know that I’m not alone and that healing takes time and it’s a new mindset that takes Practice. Thank you SO SO SO much! I still feel like i have some much to learn.💗
I guess it gets to the point where the anxiety gets so bad the thoughts get so bad you are punished for them and it gets to the point where you give up.
Now I recognize that my anxiety comes primarily from the intrusive thought, I could hyperventilate again, like it happened when I was 16. My inner child tries to protect me because the experience was so traumatic for it. But when I create a separation between me and the intrusive thought, it becomes clear. Thx Dennis, this was a big insight 👍
I worked so hard and have slipped back into anxiety. This video spoke to me this morning 🌄. As always thank you. You have helped me so much in 4 years!
Hey I found your videos last night because I have been having a very very hard time with the fear of my own death. I really love and appreciate the peace your content makes me feel. Thank you ❤️
This really resonates - thank you. These thoughts come in cycles at different points in my life (usually of high stress) and it's easy to recognise them when they're here, but not when they are approaching. Am going to try your cloud technique, and the deep breath out. When they're particularly bad, that's when I get the "What's the point of everything?" thoughts and begin to think it would be easier to just not be around rather than feel like this. Feel like I'm at the event horizon of that particular black hole right now in life and am attempting to navigate away - thank you for your help with this today. Warmest regards from England 🙏
My Intrusive thoughts attack randomly throughout the day but it becomes stronger when it hits 5pm but eventually cools down by around 9pm. I've been so scared and frustrated. It's so irritating and mentally draining. Your vid helped me. I will try to apply those skills. Because lately I've been on guard all the time incase an intrusive thought will strike. I feel so trapped.
Thank you Dennis for yr videos. It helped me in my worst days 2 years ago to listen advises from you. I still have intrusive thoughts ,but i dont give them power anymore. Still feel uncomfortable, but can live with it. What i found out today from this video ,when you sad, when did u feel safe? And its came to me that i dont remember to feel safe in past or now for very long time. Could be one main thing for me or others to work on to feel safe no matter what is happening in our lives.
Intrusive thinking is really an addiction for me. I gave up drinking years ago and never felt the need to drink. Intrusive thinking is in some way the same..when the thoughts are gone (even for a short time) I feel like I'm issuing something. Like the ana,lgy of hitting youtself with a hammer. The breath work is very helpful for me. Keep up the great work...love it.
Thank you this is exactly what I needed to hear I have had so much intrusive thoughts and anxiety lately about my worst fears that I felt lost so thank you for this clarity ❤️
that makes a lot more sense. the reason i'm not living in peace is because i do not have the skill set. i have to retrain myself to be at peace - it won't just come from watching an anxiety video. you must put it into practice and continue to make it a habit. 🌸🙏🦋☀️🌍
I started a new job and I’ve noticed the intrusive thoughts come on around 3pm of everyday….lately I’ve felt I was going into anxiety attack mode and feeling the physical symptoms. I am going to implement these skills to help me through my day…I refuse to quit my job bc of my anxiety. Thank you for this video! I will continue to listen to it over and over again
I love all ur videos am new to ur channel its helping me alot with mu tinnitus ringing is my head helping calm down my anxiety lots since I found ur channel I listen to it everyday but I still have long way to go bless
BEST talk that hit my mind!! It actually got to my nerves!! Thank you a lot.. I am definitely looking forward to develop this mind set and skills set!😍❤️
I have intrusive thoughts especially in the morning. I dont know why . So every morning I have to cope with them through neurucoachig practices to make me able to go on with the day, Thanks for your videos they are trueky inspiring. It makes me realize that all my intrusive thoughts are addicitive behaviour to give me the illusion of safety. Thank you so m uch.
Hey Dennis i am a dentistry student and currently practicing on patients. I must say you helped me a lot with the anxiety of making mistakes on my patients. Thank you a lot 🙏😅
I just downloaded your book, and looking forward to reading it. I have been having longer periods of good days which has been amazing. I think the hardest part is when the anxiety and negative, instrusive thoughts come sneaking in and i feel like i have lost. I know i havent and every step is a step forward. My biggest issue is my head, i get pains that come and go. They are always switching where they are when they come back and i just started getting pressure hives which also makes me anxious. I think its really fustrating that all it took was me learning of someone i have only ever met twice having a brain anyrisum and dying that took me to the place i have been for over a year now. But i know i am on the road to healing and i am confident your book is going to help me just like your videos do. Thank you for caring enough to share all this with us.
I do try the Daffy Duck thing, but it's hard. My scary thoughts are so convincing, especially when it comes to health anxiety. I really struggle to rein in my catastrophic thinking.
My intrusive thought that gets me all the time is dieing of a heart attack. I've never had one thank God. But this started 6 years ago after a very bad panic attack. I ended up in the hospital have 4 EKG done, labs done, and x-rays. Doctor came back and asked if I've ever had a panic attack I told him no whats that. He explained it to me, but the only thing I got out of it was that it mimics a heart attack. It stayed imprinted in my head ever since. And I've been struggling since. But after watching this video I know its time for a change. Thank you. I'm a do my best to get better.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this. I’ve been dealing with some dark and intrusive thoughts and no one has been able to provide any coping skills that feel like they actually help or are true to what I’m experiencing. This video gave me the insight into WHY my intrusive thoughts have been getting worse (!!!!) and the tools to begin healing. Thank you.
Vivian, I am right there with you. As much as I wouldn't want others to deal with this, it is comforting to know that I'm not alone, and that you aren't alone. It sucks so bad. I hope you are doing well
You are reading my mind dennsi grateful to have you! ! Iam healing tremendously from the content sooner I'm going to update my success story of healing.. 😃😃
Hello, this is my first time being here on the channel and i am so glad this video was recommended to me. I am a freshmen in highschool and latley ive been having thoughts that i knew werent my own but it keep feeling like an urge and it kept coming back. This video really helped and im glad to find out that im not the only person who deals with this and that i am not alone and there are tips and ways to fix it or push it away. Thank You Sir.
These are good thought diffusion techniques I’ve heard. Other good ones are click the X button like your thought is a pop up in your mind. Name the story of repetitive thoughts because when you name it as a story, it’s not yours but rather like a movie you’re watching.
For intrusive thoughts, which I call ' Non - stop nonsense '. Just observe your thoughts and say ' so what next ' . I know this sounds simple , it works. I saw this short video from africa. It works !.
The cartoon thing is a winner! Scooby Doo telling me I’m going to get pneumonia and die because I have sore chest muscles (I swim too hard and never warm up) definitely made me laugh aloud. 😂 Thank you, Dennis. 🤘

I know!! once I think and im like "hey im doing well right now" boom intrusive though
Sounds like me. We must talk back to it. The book Feel the Fear and do it anyway is excellent.
i needed this man. Been dealing with this anxiety hard for 4 months straight, but i will overcome this and i will live the life i want to live ❤️
Hi sir, now you feel better
Right how you feeling now
I am not my intrusive thought... I am more than anxiety, I can live with uncertainty... these statements are powerful
When he says warriors idk what to say it puts a smile on my face
This is fantastic! I'm sending it to girlfriend w OCD, others with depression and anxiety.

I am the same way... I have anxiety over my anxiety..but I am enjoying these videos and I am listening!

Me too everyday
The time thing that you mentioned is really accurate my anxiety is always worse after 5pm
Sameee
My anxiety is only really bad in the morning usually
Me to around that time strange really
Morning, noon, and night.
I am learning how to not react to the thoughts like I have in the past.
Im reflecting upon why the intrusive thoughts come when things are getting good.
This is spot on. Your words are healing! Thank you so much!
So very welcome enjoy the channel
best thing that worked for me.. Meditation, jogging, cut out caffeine, and as for suplement : inositol and take gaba before bed - 2 weeks later. mind is clear
Thank you for sharing.
@@TheAnxietyGuy1 I bought and listened to your book on coping while jogging - well done
What does gaba mean?
It works! I picture my Guiding Angel standing in front of me with the thought in a cloud and we are blowing the cloud away.
It's like you knew exactly what I needed to hear right now!
Maybe my psychic powers are growing. 🤔
Im a new mom. Young mom n im under this situation😢😢 harming my twins.... But i love them so much... At the same time im stressed a lot... 😢
Addicted to suffering... So powerful! Thank you
Wow this is so true. Didnt realize how much instrusive thoughts can influence our emotions on a day to day bases
Can you please do more videos on intrusive thoughts 😊
12:21 lol. I love this. It makes it sound like the experience is not that serous and not to give it my full detrimental attention.
Soo grateful for this video, I’ve had a anxiety relapse recently. Thank you thank you tuning in
Much love.

I’ve noticed my intrusive thoughts/anxiety starts at 2:00/2:30. This is when I feel exhausted and I want to sleep
When I heard that people with intrusive thoughts are more likely to kill themselves made me panic more

I guess it gets to the point where the anxiety gets so bad the thoughts get so bad you are punished for them and it gets to the point where you give up.
it's exhuashting!

This video really helped and im glad to find out that im not the only person who deals with this and that i am not alone and there are tips and ways to fix it or push it away. Thank You Sir.
Pushing it away for life..
My intrusive thought comes to me when I am going to sleep, and I can’t sleep. It’s habitual. I wil try the techniques you said. Thank you so much 😅
Sharing your information to the anxiety group!! 💕

Omg!!! He spoke my truth
I’m so over my anxiety, I need to be healed
My intrusive thoughts usually hit me in the morning. How about you guys?
Same
My morning anxiety is always the worst
Thank you for being so kind
What a awesome and powerful video . Thank you 🙏🏻
These are good thought diffusion techniques I’ve heard. Other good ones are click the X button like your thought is a pop up in your mind. Name the story of repetitive thoughts because when you name it as a story, it’s not yours but rather like a movie you’re watching.
Great skill sets to adopt! I will be practicing one of them everyday
EXCELLENT IM TRYING THE SKILL SETS
Right on time. Thank you so much!
So helpful!! Thank you!
For intrusive thoughts, which I call ' Non - stop nonsense '. Just observe your thoughts and say ' so what next ' . I know this sounds simple , it works. I saw this short video from africa. It works !.
Thank you for sharing
one of my favorite videos - Dennis you are a blessing to humanity - God Bless you!
agreed!
The cartoon thing is a winner! Scooby Doo telling me I’m going to get pneumonia and die because I have sore chest muscles (I swim too hard and never warm up) definitely made me laugh aloud. 😂 Thank you, Dennis. 🤘
Awesome video! I often times need so many reminders like this!!
Lovely Dennis, just well put and amazing work as always
