I Had Bad Feelings Doing What I Was Told To Do So I Tried To Bury The Feelings And Lie To Myself

  • This is a story about how I bought into the narrative of success but found emptiness and sadness instead. Not understanding the bad feelings, I tried to hide them. But they kept coming back. Here, I share how I am learning to be friends with the bad feelings in addition to the good ones so that I don't have to lie to myself anymore.
    The Hawaiian prayer Ho'oponopono is powerful for acknowledging that a wrongdoing has happened, asking for forgiveness, thanking, and loving. It can be directed towards other people, your emotions and feelings, to the universe, and to yourself. It is about restoring balance.
    I'm sorry
    Please forgive me
    Thank you
    I love you

    I've been a lawyer for nearly 40 years. But law was not my first passion. I'm a creative person, and law stifles creativity. I still practice law a little, but I've become dedicated to personal projects that encourage my creativity. I've written a novel about my dogs and me, and I'm now authoring a colouring book for children (which features a dog). I was 70 years old when I made the switch. I wish I had made it when I was 38 years old. Well done, sir.

      That’s amazing. I’m 26 and everyone tells me to make money, I feel like I’m not respected if I don’t have money but I’ve found respect from the right people after I ended up homeless without a single dollar to my name. I wanted to be a rapper and get a record deal to be able to provide for my family but since I’ve been living off the land spending more time in nature I see other ways of making sure my family is taken care of like farming bees but I’m also working on childrens books, I wrote the first one from a real life experience I had with a bee but I need to get it illustrated somehow. I want to keep working on children’s books because I feel like the world today is missing good children’s books when I grew up with so many deep thought provoking meaningful children’s books that I still remember to this day and I want to give the next generation the same feeling and love for books that I had growing up. Id be super grateful if you could share any knowledge or tips on writing/how to publish a book

Originally, he thought I would be angry with him, but I told him that I was very happy that he could be brave. Go after what he wants to do! I support him very much and tell him that if he has financial difficulties, he should tell me at any time. I will always support him. As long as he is happy, I will be happy!

I eventually went into a Spec Forces Unit ...then the Iraq war broke out. I was exposed to really crazy situation's and horrific things. I left the military and never wanted to go back into the Healthcare field. I tried many hobbies and went to school to be a chef.....hated it. But then my Uncle ..whom was a surgeon said, I should try to go to Med School. Long story, I hired a tutor for a year and help from my Uncle I went to Medical school in Milan Italy. Today I'm a cardiologist. Now it sounds really cool...but in my personal life, I'm divorced 2x. My family has all passed away and most of my friends I have lost contact with ..so when I'm not working, I am alone. Some of it by choice.......I am getting close to retiring now and I am excited about moving to a new place and starting life over once again if the good Lord gives me the time and the health to. So looking back to my life for you...Life hopefully for you will be long and dont be surprised if you wake up one day and some crazy idea pops in your head and you go off to follow that dream....and what if you fail? Its all OK.... its life and everyday is a blessing.

    My husband was always “when I retire”. He worked hard and never exercised, he didn’t like a healthy diet, he was stressed more often than not (I worked full time so it wasn’t all on his shoulder) He died 2 months after his 60th birthday after a long illness. He never got to enjoy his retirement and, sadly, never got to enjoy his grandchildren. Keep posting your message. I’m happy that you had the courage to take such a bold step.

      idk, I'm gonna push back a little here.
      I struggled a lot while finishing up my PhD, and I am still grappling with many of the issues touched on in this video. I've found meds don't so much dampen my emotions as much as they allow me process them more effectively. Of course, meds are just part of a larger strategy. Exercising, eating well, mindfulness, avoiding big tech's algorithms, getting outside, and surrounding myself with friends and loved ones are essential elements.
      That being said, I do agree with the sentiment. Obviously the big pharma C-suite is not acting in our best interests, and unfortunately many aspects of the medical establishment, especially in the US, seem to be more broken then ever. SSRIs in particular, although pretty safe, are poorly understood. Evidence for their effectiveness is surprisingly weak, and their efficacy seems to depend strongly on genetics (and presumably a billion other factors). I was fortunate, as I was able to take a break after school. Trying the meds was low risk, and I always understood that I could come off them if I didn't like the side-effects. They helped me to dig myself out a rut, and their influence was very subtle. I'm happy I tried them out, but also look forward to getting off them soon :)
      And if you're reading this, Dr. Goobie: These videos have really resonated with me. I recently finished up at MIT, and I wonder how many of our fellow alums go through similar crises sometime in their lives. We give so much of ourselves to fit into some definition of success that it's easy to lose sight of both what /we/ want and what's actually important to us. Stay strong, and stay curious!

    As a physician also, this resonates with me. I quit my partnership at age 40 to do a master's in Bioethics and study the meaning of medicine while working part-time. It has changed my perspective in many valuable ways. The contemporary philosopher Martha Nussbaum wrote a substantial book called Upheavals of Thought that proposed that emotions are actually a form of intelligence--our subconscious brain communicating with us. If we learn to listen to our emotions, good and bad, and learn how to act on them in ways that are healthy rather than counterproductive or harmful, we tap into more potential and fulfillment as human beings. Men are sometimes deprived of this well of self-knowledge because societally they aren't generally encouraged or taught to be "in touch" with their emotions. But man or woman, understanding and living with our own emotions can be a struggle, albeit a worthwhile one. Happy journeying, Goobie! We're all on this path together.

    Ex-psychiatrist here in my 40's with an Asian background who used to work in the UK's National Health Service 8 years ago. I left medicine whilst my youngest child was on the way and faced that fear of uncertainty and criticism of whether I was making a sensible decision, but am the happiest place since. I work in the private sector managing clinical risk with health information technology vendors and have more time with the wife and kids, and take home far less emotional burden compared to before. The problem solving & analytical skills you have acquired are still very transferable outside of Neurosurgery. You are not alone in re-evaluating what you are 'supposed' to do or what is 'expected' of you. Framing those 'negative' emotions into exciting motivational drivers of unexplored possibility to redefine what more suitable 'goals' might be whilst maintaining you integrity & work life balance can be quite freeing. Sending you my support. Please continue on your journey with conviction. Your honest and open sharing of your thoughts and experiences is admirable.

      My late Dad was in corporate for most his working life. Earned good money, had the ability to go on some brilliant holidays and actually provided me and my Mum with lots of financial security. Some significant benefits.
      However... it was a very tough time for him climbing the corporate ladder. He even considering quitting his job as a project manager a few times.
      It actually took him until 2011 to actually feel like he 'made it' in his work. He was wired in a way to succeed no matter what which was good in some ways.
      Last year in hospital he said that looking back on his career, "how many people will actually remember what he'd achieved at work when he's no longer here?". It's good to earn a living and have a career, but it's not just about chasing the reward. Money will always be out there if your canny enough . Your time will not.

    Emerson described best what success is.
    “ What is success?
    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate the beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch Or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded”!

      As a doctor of 30 years, I feel that the motivation to practice medicine should strictly be as a social service. Otherwise it is easy to tire out early. Unfortunately, these capitalist governments, owned by, or run by, corporates have commercialised medicine, and even learning medicine and healthcare, are expensive in these countries. Those planning to take up careers as doctors, should ideally be from the most under privileged, for whom medicine is an opportunity to live a comfortable, life earning average national income, and not dream of minting money, like most disheartened doctors who quit medicine, do

You are not going to solve their stressful life, their sleep problems, their relationship problems, their food habits. If someone can not fix the leak roof, they still as a best possible second option, would like to replace their dry walls, carpets and remove mold. Seems to be you are only being selfish. There are not many people who can do the things you can do. You are blessed with it. Some people will kill to have the talent you have. Your professor was right when he said you are there to help people. Not only through surgery but through your encouragement and by merely listening to their words. That position as a surgeon enables you to do this. When you are in the mountains, you won't be able to help anyone. Dr. Goobie I hope you think about what I said.

My wife gave me a wall plaque that hung in my hospital administrative office for 20 years; "You took the road less-travelled; and that, made all the difference!"

      I am a therapist, and I think you talking to us is very therapeutic. It all came crashing down on me at age 59. I've always received negative comments about my lifestyle from my family because I traveled. It took a major depression before I realized I have to stop being a people pleaser and please myself. So happy now.

    9 months ago my neurosurgeon saved my life. I have had back issues since my early twenties when I first had my first back surgery. 9 months ago i walked into the ER with numbness on both legs, genitals and my rectum. Due the circumstances of my condition, I was admitted as soon as I get there and 2 days later I was in the operating room. Thanks God and all the doctors I was able to recover my sensation and I’m able to live a little bit of normal life now. I was city bus driver but unfortunately my career was caught short after my surgery, My body did not respond well when I went back driving so I had to take early medical retirement at 44. Btw, Yesterday was my birthday. I’m struggling financially but at least I’m still breathing and alive. There are some good and bad days but I’m taking one day at a time.. thank you Dr. for these encouraging videos.

My husband is a retired Special Force Solider then went on to work in teaching wilderness medicine. I worked at a very busy hospital as a Physician Liaison, which I hated. We sold the big house and everything in it. Moved from one state to another and bought a small cottage on six beautiful wooded acres. Our life has changed in ways its hard to put into words. We never looked back.

    You are honest and kind. You worry about your video hurting your former colleagues.
    But you know, the video provides the answer to how to be mentally and physically healthy. It’s so great.
    Listening to you talk about your mother-in-law encourages you to embrace your emotions, no matter how good or bad. It makes me think of the Sedona method: Admit and accept I have the feeling, ask myself if I am able to release the feeling, and when I can do it. Now? Yes, now.
    Thank you for the video. All the best to you and your family.

    I can't explain it in words but your videos bring me so much peace. I started this realization when I was 26. I quit my consultant job after 2 years of working, decided to retreat to a village and help my parents operate their restaurant business while I figured out my own life, tried starting my business online with almost nothing left in the bank. From 26-30, it was a rough ride of figuring out what I wanted and had to constantly deal with depression, fear, anxiety and negativity. No one had much encouragement to say. I threw away a great career for uncertainty. Long story short, I'm turning 32 this year. While business may still be uncertain and I'm definitely not 'there' yet, I've worked so much on inner healing and my mental health, and I have so much peace now. Like, I've finally truly understand what it means to be alive, what it means to be present, to enjoy nature, food on the table, the clean hot running water. These days I catch myself smiling as I'm driving home to see my parents. Everything that used to matter so much to the point of anxiety and depression are no longer that important. Its being alive, enjoying being alive, being grateful, being with people you love, having a healthy mind, eating right, building muscles in the gym (I had chronic pain my whole life + 2 slipped discs). If I did this, anybody can. Thank you God.

    I was a mortgage underwriter for 30 years. I knew it, and the 12 hour work days were killing me. I was very unhappy. One day in 2022 while sitting at my desk, I decided I'd had enough of my current life. I was miserable. I'dbeendivorcedfor years, I'd raised 2 sons on my own, I only saw my friends every couple of months, I bought my current house in 2011 but only talked to 2 neighboros every once in a while. So, I decided to sell my house and everything in it and leave my 30 year career. I bought an RV. I decided this the end of June and by November me & my 2 little mini poodles were on the road. I'm supporting myself by work camping (huge career change 😂) I have had very similar feelings and emotions as you describe. My family thought I'd lost my mind. However, I can honestly say that even with all the ups & downs, I have no regrets. I've had so many adventures and have met so many new people. If I don't like my neighbors, no problem, my home is on wheels. I don't know how long I'll continue this lifestyle, but I know I'm emotionally healing daily. I sincerely understand you.
