I’m struggling with depression, insomnia and long term unemployment. Age 49, things feel bleak, and even though it’s summer as I write this I’m struggling a lot
Keep away from the substances. It only hinders. I pray you are doing well. It’s hard but it’s also easier day to day. Feel everything, meditate . Observe. Love.
I'm tired... just tired. Not suicidal, just tired of doing everything, and living in an impossible world. So done with it all... done working my ass off all day, for a broken home and ungrateful family. 😢
There is no future. It doesn’t exist. It’s a story your brain is trying to make up to protect you from the fear of what comes next. You live in the present. You’ll always live in the present.
Same here. The worst is bedtime when I am overcome with anxiety because I wake up every two hours with sinus issues that raise my blood pressure and don’t allow me to rest. I worry that I’ve been to many doctors and nobody can help me. Blessings to all of you! O
Future don't exist, past don't exist. Only now is real so be there in the now. We only really suffer our thoughts. Fear is always about what something you imagine will happen. So you already suffer what hasn't happened and most of the time won't ever happen the way you imagined it would. Fear will drop when you see the illogicality of it. What comes to suffering the past. it's the regrets we have but again; past doesn't exist so you are suffering something that is not real. There is only now and here. Meditation as a frequent practise would be good but you just have to do it. He said don't move and I think it was very well said
What a lovely, enlightened young man you are. My ex-husband, who was also my best friend, died suddenly recently. Folks were there for me for a week or so and now, in the typical English way, it's 'subject closed' for them. I'm grieving over him. Thank you so much for your words of kindness and compassion, David.
@@Davidmcdonald1I've tried so much to overcome the darkness. My thought mechanism is hell on earth. I had chest pain and actually felt a short hope that this might be my way out😢
As someone who suffers with extreme severe anxiety I can totally relate to her. I would stop eating for days at a time as a punishment. I worry a lot about my life, everyone around me and pleasing everyone. It's absolutely crippling, so glad she got the help she needed, lovely young lady it's so sad that society has 1 in 3 people suffering mental health issues. I hope everyone seeks help
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about how mushrooms and psychedelics treats anxiety, but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, Doctor Greg Mushrooms he is a great man of God who has the great insight on psychedelic and mushroom. He will guide you on how to use mushrooms to get good trip.
I felt just like this for a long while, Haakon. The CPTSD was the worst. I'm in therapy now. How are you at the moment? I send you my love and best wishes. 💜
I hate that I've always had this feeling that I have to be perfect in order to justify or qualify my existence. Im pretty low in my life right now; feel like I'm trapped inside myself crying out to be loved but I won't ever utter a peep. I hate that I use drugs, that Im on meds, that I play games and isolate while my loved ones grow older. Im tired of it all...
I hear you! I don't take drugs, but I feel like I might as well be taking them, the way society treats me and the random horrific feelings that I've been getting like grief and despair. They'd like to make my problems better, but it's getting worse. I'm on anti-anxiety and antidepressant types of medicine. Still, my mind tries to make me forget things, maybe so that I can forget all of the bad stuff, so it practically erases my memory.
You are ahead of your time my friend. I drank for all of my twenties, when I was happy when I was sad all of it. It stunted all of my development and maturity, I turned 40 last year and I regret all of those wasted years drinking. Learning to be comfortable feeling different emotions has been key for me. it's like the weather, sometimes it shits on you with hail and wind sometimes the sun comes out and you just gotta sit there, feel it good or bad and know it will flow and change. It's wisdom, you cant teach it you have to experience and learn it, and you got it already.
I love everyone who is struggling to cope with their inner self, just know that you’re loved and forgiven! Don’t give up, there’s better times ahead for all of us❤
As much as our generation is suffering and having to heal from so much pain and generational trauma. I am filled with so much hope for the future. I truly believe the next generation has the potential to be healed, emotionally intelligent, and at one with themselves. I’m so grateful there has been such a mass awakening to healing. We’ve got this everyone, keep the faith 🤍🙏🏼🕊️
trying to run away from my feelings got me and many of my friends in deep shit. it's so important to feel and express your feelings otherwise they will destroy you.
I had a future. I had all that I could desire and more and it all fell through my fingers. Grief is destroying my soul. Grief has taken my hope. I just want something to live for.
Yes that's what as happened to me recently lost my love of my life to cancer to happened so quickly it's frightening I'm on my own again totally heartbroken 💔
Couldnt sleep well *again*. Opened RUclips thinking some music could give at least some or any feeling of comfort or smth... found this. I am beyond grateful.
This certainly must explain why I have been content staying home. I feel safe, secure and content at home. Plus, I save money. Large crowds and public events make me anxious. Everything is as it should be. No guilt. No regret. Just be.
Going to leave this here as a reminder for myself. Whenever this gets a like I will get reminded. Sometimes I wonder why God makes me wait. I know his plan is perfect. I know God has me waiting for a reason. It feels like I've been in isolation for a long period now. I'm about to get back into doing what I love. I know God will always be with me. I give my life to Jesus Christ. I know looking back I'll be able to connect the dots. Understanding it had to happen just as it did. All the heartbreaks, setbacks, and nights worrying about if you're on the right path. It will all be lifted once I get there. To anyone out there. God will never abandon you. 6/24/2024
I heard in a video that one of the ways the enemy attempts to separate you from God is to make you impatient with his plans, and it's as simple as making you think "well why isn't it happening right now?" or "Why is it taking so long?" It's on its way. And there are things you need to know first. If you jump into a job, for example, wouldn't you like to be taught and gain experience on the job first? Before making any sort of advancements up? You can't be a manager without being a new employee, and you can't be the boss without being a manager first. Why he's making you wait isn't my business, but I do know that God's path will always take a little longer. The analogy I have here for that is "lies have speed, but the truth has perseverance." Just to use the extreme end as an example here, people who reached the top in our media could've quite literally sold themselves to Satan to be there. I'm sure, as a fellow believer, you already know that. Satan can offer blessings, too, like money, wealth, and material possessions, and he can give it to you quickly.. but it always comes at a cost. These people who sold themselves fell into that temptation, typically because I think they don't even believe in their soul or eternity, or just dont take it seriously enough to know the cost. And they achieved success quickly. If you take God's path, it's a longer, often times lonely journey, but God is with you, and he perseveres. The journey teaches you things beyond this physical world. You can help individuals greatly with this newfound wisdom. Your position in life will hold more meaning than just being an idol or a lover of money, a wealthy person, flashy, you name it. I'm not assuming that's what you want, but it's the only example I have.
And God's people always have a period of isolation. But I mean, look at how the world lives. So many people are godless consumers that just party, club, go to bars, have meaningless conversations, get drunk, get high, gossip, waste time, be mean to each other, belittle each other. Heck, half the people here don't even know what love is and will hurt others and make it hard for us to love again.. bad is considered good, and good is considered lame these days. You wouldn't want to be with any of them anyways. Spiritualist call them low vibrational. But you want more for yourself. And after you learn that, the isolation will instead become solitude, and you'll grow to appreciate it more, and it'll be peaceful. Friends will have more quality than quantity. You'll have four quarters instead of a hundred pennies. And you can find a partner that is also one of God's people. It'll all come in due time. God bless everyone.
The earlier you accept that your god doesnt exist and his "plan" even less, the sooner can you accept reality. Theres "no plan", wtf. Thats such a naive thing to think. Grow up. There are children every day getting bombed away and dying of the worst diseases. Be it christian children in some dirty favelas, or some muslim children in gaza. Its so random. Everyday, someone meets their miserable "fate". Gods plan doesnt exist. Look around you. Its only you. God abandoned ALOT of people.

One very, very large point about not moving, is NOT to go anywhere. Stay home or in nature in a safe space. Do not go looking for distraction in public places especially.
@@AJ-072-94 semi-true. It is more scientifically backed the staying indoors for prolonged periods of time is detrimental to your mental and physical health, so it is good to go it every once in a while.
well at least the rich achieved something in life before that person dies. his kids will probably inherit the fortunes and pass on to the next generation. cycle of life.
@AndrewPaulson-m6oInteresting, This is superb! Information, as a noob it gets quite difficult to handle all of this and staying informed is a major cause, how do you go about this are you a pro Investor?
I feel Investors should exercise caution with their exposure and.exercise caution when considering new investments, particularly during periods of inflation. It is advisable to seek guidance from a professional or a licensed expert in order to navigate this recession and achieve potential high yields
A Buddhist Master's response when asked what to do when suffering arises was very compassionate & unexpected. You'd expect that he'd say "just sit with it." But instead he said "sit with it as long as you can, then if you need to get up." It just goes to show that although Buddha is the goal, not all of us at are at that point in our spiritual awakening. He's showing that we're only human & realizes we all struggle, to varying degrees in different ways having unique capacities with this thing called life.
Lmao if you need to get up??? What, what should I do if I need to get up??? Lol it's like the movie cliche when you're about to hear some crucial wisdom, but the master dies in your arms without finishing the thought. But I think I know what you mean.
My brother thank you. I lost my beautiful wife (34) to cancer this year. We had our whole life ahead of us. I am so lost and have been running in many ways from the pain ever since. You are correct. I need to make time to sit with it and embrace and understand this grief and find a way to live alongside it.
I’m sorry for your loss. Did your wife take an experimental mRNA shot in the last few years? It may seem crass to ask, but if she did maybe you should consider the crimes against humanity many of spoke up about. If she didn’t I am sorry to have bothered you. I still send love and compassion. 🙏🏽🫂❤️
@@BigDaddyDruShe did. Her symptoms presented themselves shortly after her second shot. We always suspected there was a link and our doctor said it was possible. My wife was so healthy beforehand… never drank in her life, never smoked either, only ate healthy foods and exercised. Her family has no history of cancer. 😢How can I find more information on this?
@@onamaehadanieru9600 I just want to say again I am sorry for your loss. 🫂❤️. I imagine you’re in your 30s or 40s like myself. Do not let the anger or sadness consume you. Do not quit on us. It’s going to be a long fight to bring those responsible to Justice, and we’re going to need you. Make your wife proud. Stand up. Speak up. You will see her again, and when you do she will know you fought righteously in her honor. I know this sounds crazy coming from a stranger on the internet, but all the information you seek is within you. Unplug from the internet for a while. Plug into yourself. Cultivate your discernment. Find your new path as a warrior in this world. Be brave. Be courageous. For her. For your community for what is right.
This energy rolled in for me today. It brought me to a stand still. I sit with a deep longing. An ache I literally feel in my chest. I feel stranded in a space of nowhere. A ghost unseen. Like a fish in a glass bowl, separated from the collective. I am the peculiar alien. Dismissed. - Appreciate your chat. 💚
This chap seems wise beyond his years.. it's good to see that all our philosophical musings that happen in the privacy of our minds when we're feeling lost aren't unique to ourselves, we're surrounded by people hiding their own existential angst and that should give us some comfort and company.
was in the same place for the last months, it was horrible, just try to sit with it, feel your way through the dark, even it makes no sense to your mind yet, you got this bro
i am not moving since 7 months now. I Have severe anxiety and my wife left me in January. I am sitting down with my strong sadness, lonilness ,pain ans anxiety since 7 month on my own. I just accept the emotions and try not to judge what happens inside of me. After 7 month i can feel a transformation coming. I feel becoming more softer more compassionate. Selflove comes automatically when you just stay with your pain and not get distracted from the outer world. I can relate very much to what you say.
I'm watching you from France, just discovered your video and I just found it so interesting.. this idea of not running away from our monsters under the bed, to embrace them, locate them, ask them what they want from us is just absolutely right and accurate. This sadness I've had inside for years, I don't want to run away from it anymore. I would just like to understand it, love it and let it go. Thank you for the video 🙏🙏🥰
I'm half Irish born in sheffield England and 56. You even look a bit like my younger self, I had many many shrooms around the age of 20, one trip blew my illusions away, never been the same since. Been on a fantastic rollercoaster of enlightenment and self learning since. Had a breakdown at 49, caused by burnout...still grafting on the roads and buildings, associating with people that fed off my energy until I had none left. For the last 4 years I've hardly moved, I won't...I take everything head on and appreciate the creator's love and everything good about the world. Nature is key, look to that, love it, learn from it, go out and drink from natural springs, observe birds, learn their calls and habits, start foraging a bit...learn the properties of wild plants and trees. Do a bit of fishing, be thankful....say thankyou to any possible creator or divine consciousness, no big prayers to a dedicated so called "God" or religion. Most of all be grateful for this chance to experience this wonderful planet and life, as hard and hearbreaking it can seem to us. And like you say, stand fast, be firm and definitely do less when times get you down. Hold your position until clarity comes and the external forces allow and want you to do so.
20. Been struggling with MDD. C-PTSD, and some other diagnosed mental illnesses. Been suppressing the cries of my inner child, wanting to cry and cry and cry it all out and be heard and loved. Growing up, I never felt very loved. I was emotionally neglected. I'm in therapy & my therapist helps me process things, but this video helped me release the cries of that emotionally neglected kid, who only ever wanted to be loved and protected- instead being abused on a near daily basis- scared and confused and lost. I am slowly healing as time goes on and I process grief and losses. Thank you for posting this video. Thank you for your help.
@@darthjedi99 I'm so conflicted as to whether God Almighty really exists or not- my parents are Christians themselves, and I think that's part of why I distanced myself from The Lord. I feel like there's more out there than what the human eye can see, but the amount of times I've cried out to God with no answer over and over again has left me unsure as to if he can even hear me. I feel lost and uncertain when it comes to religion, but nonetheless, maybe one day I will try to believe again. Maybe I really do need a savior, especially in vulnerable times like this
I'm having stomach problem s, and my anxiety is so very bad. I've got to have some test done. I ask everyone that will please pray for me. I'm deeply concerned about my stomach. Bless you all 🙏♥️
I get stomach problems from my anxiety- my digestive system just completely shuts down, it's scary. It's happened 4 times now over a few years. Each episode usually lasts about 2 months. I drop about 20 pounds each time. I literally have to eat semi solid food and over time, I can start adding food items back in, and in the mean time, its various types of medication to help keep me going. Hang in there. 🙂
Sometimes stress and anxiety causes stomach problems. At least for me the stress and anxiety from my ptsd causes me to have regular stomach problems. God bless ❤❤
Who are you?!!! This was amazing. I'm 57 and this was so perfect - been running for 50 years. Ready not to move. Been getting to this place over the last couple of weeks. Thsnk you. ❤
David I have to say this is single handedly one of the most eloquent and brilliant videos I’ve watched in the history of internet activity. 🎉 u are a seeer
I'm young, but my entire life has been permeated by a deep loneliness. Both exclusion and seclusion. I'm in good health, not entirely stupid, live in a first world country, have never gone without a meal, have activities I enjoy doing, but I cannot escape the feeling. Ive never had an easy time making friends and definitely not romance. But this video made me realize maybe I shouldn't try to run from the loneliness in the first place. Maybe that is the first step to changing my situation
The comment section is so warm . Makes me emotional that there are so many people who can care. And how we dont meet them when we are down to our lowest point . We must reach out , say help. Its the bravest thing one can do . Do not give up. We are here to play this game of suffering, lets enjoy it.
This was fantastic. If I remember right, there's a teaching by the Buddha in which fear comes to him and his response is not to move. I remember feeling that that teaching would be impossible for me to follow, because I would remain stuck in it, maybe forever. This idea that we will stuck forever, I think this drives us to dissociate. And of course it is impossible, one could never be stuck forever. But the child who first fled the pain could not know that. And I love how you adamantly state that that child is _literally_ there in us. I believe that, somehow, and I hope that this will give me the compassion to stay.
oh wow 💫 I've read a thousand comments today and this one unlocked something. I will look for this teaching; I, too, fear the stuckness. But that's what I have created.. with all this running. Wow.
I listened to this last night after having a really rough day. A large part of the day was me trying to push away my negative feelings and emotions. Fighting with them fighting with myself, or feeling them, which is only ask exacerbating the situation. But after listening, I’m really thinking about it And honoring my feelings and emotions and showing compassion toward myself and allowing them to be in to come through and that they are real by the time I went to bed I was feeling much better and I woke up in the sun shining and I’m going to have a fun day!and I’m going to work on giving love to all of me. Thank you so much and this is talk to text. Sorry if it’s terrible I have been working on it.
@@Ruairi_gym yes! It’s been two weeks, and I am still allowing myself to feel. I had some very bad news two days ago I fully felt it, also understood the reason for the bad news, and already I’ve moved on. I’m bummed but it’s not overwhelming my world. I still monitor my emotions or feelings, because I think that some of my feelings are quite inappropriate! Lol They are not nice. The worst ones show up when I’m driving but even those I can justify it and work through pretty quickly. But that is definitely a sensitive time. Driving. I live in a small town in Colorado. In the past few years people from other states who have amazing amounts of money have come here and purchased ALL our property. Housing prices have almost doubled. Rent has doubled. I am now paying $1200 a month For a very small remodeled studio hotel room. I have called the police four times in the last three months on my neighbors in seriously violent situations. I have a lot of anger and resentment toward people I don’t even know because this is affecting me directly. It is affecting everybody directly, some very positively like the real estate agents, etc. And it feels weird being angry at a group of people, it’s like being a racist, but against a state. So I wonder what to do when these emotions come up that I do not like, I understand the root of it but I feel it. I allow it. And then I feel bad for feeling it.
@@angierox6964 it's brilliant youre keeping check of Ur emotions cause that's not easy , so I totally understand how debilitating our emotions can be , especially when it comes to social interactions, the older I got the more I cut people off cause I feel so disconnected and the more I tried the worst It got so I pretty much keep people at arms reach , small talk but them getting close makes me uncomfortable and scares the shit out of me lol, so i totally get when you talk about Resentment towards people , I find relationships to be worst for my emotions , over thinking can get overwhelming , and hey I'm so sorry to hear about the bad news , if you need to vent about that dont hold back.. how you find socialising ? And do you have any coping strategies, for me the gym is a big one without it i think id be completely off the reels
It's crazy how I was about to exhausted myself by doing another killer workout to distract myself from everything I'm feeling and this video suddenly popped up. Felt personal. Thank you for your message, appreciate it you're so right. 🙏🏻
This is one of the most important video's I've ever seen on the internet. Right what I need now as well, I was caught in my usual running from the pain cycle. I'm done with it. I stay with it now.
Love it! We live in a world that is consumed with moving. Maybe the answers to happiness aren’t in adding or changing something but in letting go of our need to change what is already here.
This video healed something in me. As I cast my consciousness from my mind and into my chest, I felt a swell of sorrow. The little boy in me wanted to be held, and told that he belonged in the world.
Bravo young man. Great message and thank you for being the voice alot of us aren't quite ready to be yet. Things are starting to break and we will all grow and expand from these times. Much love and respect to all of those hanging in there and getting through the tough times
Very brave, i can see the pain and compassion in your eyes. And great advice. Accept, experience, and study whatever it is, become it's friend not enemy. And always always ask for help if you feel you can't carry it, please do. Love you all, love yourself.
Moving works for me. Usually I go for a swim in the morning. It helps to clear my mind and works for my body. But I look for moments of solace and silence. Those are needed in this noisy world. But everyone's different. Do what what body and mind allows you to without self harming yourself ❤
David McDonald is speaking the truth, the way out of suffering. This message doesn’t get old. We don’t get to where we do not need to hear it again. It is a valuable message until we drop this body. Thank you David.
@@TonyBailey-fg3noWrong! Please educate yourself, it's the other way around. We turned our back on God & the source of life. If you'd read the bible you will see how much, though sometimes with tough love, how much God has helped us through numerous challenges. And almost every time without fail humans turn their back on him to go back to their antics. Money isn't his invention, all evil is our own invention by perverting his laws & creations
I had to convey this message to my dad who had huge pain with his pinched nerve. He was walking back and forth for 6 hours but really he was just avoiding his anxiety. He got the message
It is our Mind and our Ego that moves us. The Mind has a fear of the unknown. My body is screaming at me to Be Still. This is the hardest thing I have every done! I am partially paralytic..so my body is obviously Helping me! 😊❤
Crazy ! I was just saying all this to a friend this morning then shut my shutters and got into bed to do nothing go nowhere but my phone was still on RUclips and this video tuned up ! What you just said is the conclusion I came to, too! We must be onto something. And for those who think taking time out or sleeping it out is a waste of time from my perspective we are eternal beings so there is no such thing as wasting time . 😊
We are clearly not eternal beings based on all the available evidence. In fact, we are very temporary beings. Taking a short rest or time out is fine. But the essence of life is movement, action, and problem solving.
@@sandsmarc Maybe watching 10-20 Near Death Experience,(N.D.E.s ) will give you great comfort in the eternal department. 'Nest Level Soul' is a good RUclips channel to start with . There are several channels many hundreds of experiences to learn from , I've had a N.D.E. it changed my perspective on life . Maybe it would make you feel bigger than you do now . I hope so ❤️
The timing of this video was perfect. You helped me cry and feel my emotions over something that I told myself I was fine with, but was actually running from. Thank you ❤
What sweet wisdom coming through one so young as yourself! I shall heed. Made me cry. This fear to feel, push-away. You remind of my own son, “wise beyond his years” at only 27, but always, my little boy. Thank you for sharing David, truly beautiful! - and certainly the truth, much as it can hurt, is always helpful.
My husband is declining. I am scared of what I am to go through. He's been good to me, a quiet and decent man. Only married six years. Sadness is overwhelming sometimes.
What a clever clever clever man, obviously talking from experience. Its someone like you who have it within themselves to help others as well as yourself. I know exactly where your coming from. Just brilliant.❤ lots of love from Scotland ❤
You helped me tremendously today. You have no idea. It was so dark in my mind. I didn't move. I cried so hard and then on a hot 28 degree C day here in Ontario Canada, a thunder storm broke out and I was dancing on my balcony and i have no idea how i could be feeling so good. I got soaking wet, then i ate pizza,haha Im in a good mood now. What? How is this possible. You are gifted. We are blessed. Thank you young man.
Perfect timing on this video. Feeling an incredible amount of frustration, suffering, and helplessness lately. Really trying not to run from it like I always have. Side note- I went to see Inside Out 2 with my wife and 2 year old son on his birthday last week and balled my eyes out. It's very IFS themed.
As soon as I started listening to this I sat still didn't even move my eyes. I allowed myself to catch up with my pain, or my pain to catch up with me. As I sat there I felt my nervous system regulate and my breathing deepen as I passed this tension through my body through awareness. What you offering here is much more than just the teaching. It's a portal itself. Thank you for that.
Nice message, and quite "commanding". Truth is- one has to be ready for this- as a consistent practice. It sounds simple (in a way it is)- but the meaning of practicing this consistently- means Deep transformations, and Ego dissolution.
You my sweet human dropped in exactly when I needed your message. That was so powerful. I’m still not moving so I don’t have words at the moment but THANK YOU.
Great advice. Many years ago I felt like I had to keep changing jobs. Each new job was more money. I was unhappy at each job and no more happier at the next despite more money. Then I decided I no longer wanted to live in Ohio because of the cold inclement weather. So, I HAD to move to Phoenix. But I hated all the sunshine. Moved back to Ohio. I’ve decided to just stay put.
This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still, treat each guest honorably. He may be clearing you out for some new delight. The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing, and invite them in. Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent as a guide from beyond. - Rumi
It may seem silly, but in the past, but one of the things that's helped me is staring at a single point for a minute or so, which helps me feel better.
You're all right it is from the throat down to the belly. But mostly in the heart. It would look like a very large hand holding my heart suffocating it and causing pressure in my chest. Being still and noticing your breathing is a very good coping mechanism

Hi, I hope you are feeling more appreciated by your family 🙈 I know the feeling.
The mental anguish I'm feeling is overwhelming.
And I'm afraid. Afraid of the terrible things I see in my future.
There is no future. It doesn’t exist. It’s a story your brain is trying to make up to protect you from the fear of what comes next. You live in the present. You’ll always live in the present.
Aww Bless you. I am feeling the same... So scary ❤
And me feeling it every day not able to carry out my daily tasks
Same here. The worst is bedtime when I am overcome with anxiety because I wake up every two hours with sinus issues that raise my blood pressure and don’t allow me to rest. I worry that I’ve been to many doctors and nobody can help me. Blessings to all of you! O
Future don't exist, past don't exist. Only now is real so be there in the now. We only really suffer our thoughts. Fear is always about what something you imagine will happen. So you already suffer what hasn't happened and most of the time won't ever happen the way you imagined it would. Fear will drop when you see the illogicality of it. What comes to suffering the past. it's the regrets we have but again; past doesn't exist so you are suffering something that is not real. There is only now and here. Meditation as a frequent practise would be good but you just have to do it.
He said don't move and I think it was very well said
What a lovely, enlightened young man you are. My ex-husband, who was also my best friend, died suddenly recently. Folks were there for me for a week or so and now, in the typical English way, it's 'subject closed' for them.
I'm grieving over him. Thank you so much for your words of kindness and compassion, David.
Life is tough really tough -for so many now, and grief follows you everywhere - it will never leave. the light is dimmed.
I'm sorry to hear about your husband. I hope that you are finding some light.
So sorry to hear about your husband. What a brave woman you are to seek content that will help you move forward. Sending my love to you.

I lost my dad a year ago and i still grieve his death to this day. I hope you find peace in life, we only grieve the people whom we love the most.❤️
Prayers to everyone who needs it, I know I do.
Prayers 🫂🤍
Lots of prayers for you and sending you lots of positive energy. Your life will soon get unstuck. Just keep the momentum ❤
Its the deep lonliness, ive felt it for the past 60 years, i felt lonely and isolated as a small child.
Thank you for this video.
Did you experience abandonment?
@@vincentybarra979 I would assume so.
@@susanne4370 yeah because I know it too well... it's so heavy and dark... I exhaust myself with walking and jogging... that's helps me.
@@vincentybarra979 abandonment and rejection from a small child.
I’m sorry to read this.. Never too old to heal, start over. The best thing is that YOU hold that power 😊
I feel a whole lot less suicidal now.... thanks man, I appreciate it. I am in a very bad time right now, but this gave me a moment to breathe ❤
I’ve been there, I know how that feels. You’re not alone, and you’re going to overcome this
@@Davidmcdonald1I've tried so much to overcome the darkness. My thought mechanism is hell on earth. I had chest pain and actually felt a short hope that this might be my way out😢
As someone who suffers with extreme severe anxiety I can totally relate to her. I would stop eating for days at a time as a punishment. I worry a lot about my life, everyone around me and pleasing everyone. It's absolutely crippling, so glad she got the help she needed, lovely young lady it's so sad that society has 1 in 3 people suffering mental health issues. I hope everyone seeks help
People need to realise that people with anxiety disorders have oversensitised nerves, it's not a simple case of manning up and getting over it.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about how mushrooms and psychedelics treats anxiety, but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, Doctor Greg Mushrooms he is a great man of God who has the great insight on psychedelic and mushroom. He will guide you on how to use mushrooms to get good trip.
Please, how do I reach doctor Greg?
He’s on the internet
This guy is literally savings lives with this video…he could have made a video about anything, but he chose this, and I am so grateful to him
I’m suffering. Depression, anxiety, cptsd, ASD, lonely. I want to go to sleep and not wake up
I felt just like this for a long while, Haakon. The CPTSD was the worst. I'm in therapy now. How are you at the moment? I send you my love and best wishes. 💜
I hate that I've always had this feeling that I have to be perfect in order to justify or qualify my existence. Im pretty low in my life right now; feel like I'm trapped inside myself crying out to be loved but I won't ever utter a peep. I hate that I use drugs, that Im on meds, that I play games and isolate while my loved ones grow older. Im tired of it all...
I hear you! I don't take drugs, but I feel like I might as well be taking them, the way society treats me and the random horrific feelings that I've been getting like grief and despair. They'd like to make my problems better, but it's getting worse. I'm on anti-anxiety and antidepressant types of medicine. Still, my mind tries to make me forget things, maybe so that I can forget all of the bad stuff, so it practically erases my memory.
can relate alot, one of the things that helps me is opposite action, a DBT skill. you may find it helpful too and I wish u all the best
There is a God that loves you with a love that is beyond measure. Don't go another day without seeking His Son who died on the cross for you❤
Exercise. Lots of it.
Do pushups, it help me a lot.
What a beautiful soul this man is.
You are ahead of your time my friend. I drank for all of my twenties, when I was happy when I was sad all of it. It stunted all of my development and maturity, I turned 40 last year and I regret all of those wasted years drinking. Learning to be comfortable feeling different emotions has been key for me. it's like the weather, sometimes it shits on you with hail and wind sometimes the sun comes out and you just gotta sit there, feel it good or bad and know it will flow and change. It's wisdom, you cant teach it you have to experience and learn it, and you got it already.
Wise words from jimmy saville ❤ lol
I love everyone who is struggling to cope with their inner self, just know that you’re loved and forgiven! Don’t give up, there’s better times ahead for all of us❤
As much as our generation is suffering and having to heal from so much pain and generational trauma. I am filled with so much hope for the future. I truly believe the next generation has the potential to be healed, emotionally intelligent, and at one with themselves. I’m so grateful there has been such a mass awakening to healing. We’ve got this everyone, keep the faith 🤍🙏🏼🕊️
trying to run away from my feelings got me and many of my friends in deep shit. it's so important to feel and express your feelings otherwise they will destroy you.
I had a future. I had all that I could desire and more and it all fell through my fingers. Grief is destroying my soul. Grief has taken my hope. I just want something to live for.
Yes that's what as happened to me recently lost my love of my life to cancer to happened so quickly it's frightening I'm on my own again totally heartbroken 💔
Jesus loves you & so do I-!!
✨️✝️🕊
No matter what is going on in the world these times, its always good to see loving people helping others they dont even know❤
Couldnt sleep well *again*. Opened RUclips thinking some music could give at least some or any feeling of comfort or smth... found this. I am beyond grateful.
This certainly must explain why I have been content staying home. I feel safe, secure and content at home. Plus, I save money. Large crowds and public events make me anxious. Everything is as it should be. No guilt. No regret. Just be.
Going to leave this here as a reminder for myself. Whenever this gets a like I will get reminded. Sometimes I wonder why God makes me wait. I know his plan is perfect. I know God has me waiting for a reason. It feels like I've been in isolation for a long period now. I'm about to get back into doing what I love. I know God will always be with me. I give my life to Jesus Christ. I know looking back I'll be able to connect the dots. Understanding it had to happen just as it did. All the heartbreaks, setbacks, and nights worrying about if you're on the right path. It will all be lifted once I get there. To anyone out there. God will never abandon you. 6/24/2024
I heard in a video that one of the ways the enemy attempts to separate you from God is to make you impatient with his plans, and it's as simple as making you think "well why isn't it happening right now?" or "Why is it taking so long?" It's on its way. And there are things you need to know first. If you jump into a job, for example, wouldn't you like to be taught and gain experience on the job first? Before making any sort of advancements up? You can't be a manager without being a new employee, and you can't be the boss without being a manager first. Why he's making you wait isn't my business, but I do know that God's path will always take a little longer. The analogy I have here for that is "lies have speed, but the truth has perseverance." Just to use the extreme end as an example here, people who reached the top in our media could've quite literally sold themselves to Satan to be there. I'm sure, as a fellow believer, you already know that. Satan can offer blessings, too, like money, wealth, and material possessions, and he can give it to you quickly.. but it always comes at a cost. These people who sold themselves fell into that temptation, typically because I think they don't even believe in their soul or eternity, or just dont take it seriously enough to know the cost. And they achieved success quickly. If you take God's path, it's a longer, often times lonely journey, but God is with you, and he perseveres. The journey teaches you things beyond this physical world. You can help individuals greatly with this newfound wisdom. Your position in life will hold more meaning than just being an idol or a lover of money, a wealthy person, flashy, you name it. I'm not assuming that's what you want, but it's the only example I have.
And God's people always have a period of isolation. But I mean, look at how the world lives. So many people are godless consumers that just party, club, go to bars, have meaningless conversations, get drunk, get high, gossip, waste time, be mean to each other, belittle each other. Heck, half the people here don't even know what love is and will hurt others and make it hard for us to love again.. bad is considered good, and good is considered lame these days. You wouldn't want to be with any of them anyways. Spiritualist call them low vibrational. But you want more for yourself. And after you learn that, the isolation will instead become solitude, and you'll grow to appreciate it more, and it'll be peaceful. Friends will have more quality than quantity. You'll have four quarters instead of a hundred pennies. And you can find a partner that is also one of God's people. It'll all come in due time.
God bless everyone.
@@John-wb2kk well said brother ✝
The earlier you accept that your god doesnt exist and his "plan" even less, the sooner can you accept reality. Theres "no plan", wtf. Thats such a naive thing to think. Grow up. There are children every day getting bombed away and dying of the worst diseases. Be it christian children in some dirty favelas, or some muslim children in gaza. Its so random. Everyday, someone meets their miserable "fate". Gods plan doesnt exist. Look around you. Its only you. God abandoned ALOT of people.

One very, very large point about not moving, is NOT to go anywhere. Stay home or in nature in a safe space. Do not go looking for distraction in public places especially.
Facts
No.
Go out, touch the outside world, meet people you don't know, greet them and sit outside.
Changing place renews spirit.
@@MrSoothsayertrue
@@AJ-072-94 semi-true. It is more scientifically backed the staying indoors for prolonged periods of time is detrimental to your mental and physical health, so it is good to go it every once in a while.
@@MrSoothsayerBoth can be true, it all depends on what your running/hiding from. Mayve using the words"Face it" would be better

@AndrewPaulson-m6oInteresting, This is superb! Information, as a noob it gets quite difficult to handle all of this and staying informed is a major cause, how do you go about this are you a pro Investor?
I feel Investors should exercise caution with their exposure and.exercise caution when considering new investments, particularly during periods of inflation. It is advisable to seek guidance from a professional or a licensed expert in order to navigate this recession and achieve potential high yields
still sat in the bus, they're shouting at me to get out
i will not be moved, i need this portal/gateway
Its a fidgeting to distract oneself. Running, always running
Everyone who can do this is incredibly brave
A Buddhist Master's response when asked what to do when suffering arises was very compassionate & unexpected. You'd expect that he'd say "just sit with it." But instead he said "sit with it as long as you can, then if you need to get up." It just goes to show that although Buddha is the goal, not all of us at are at that point in our spiritual awakening. He's showing that we're only human & realizes we all struggle, to varying degrees in different ways having unique capacities with this thing called life.
Lmao if you need to get up??? What, what should I do if I need to get up???
Lol it's like the movie cliche when you're about to hear some crucial wisdom, but the master dies in your arms without finishing the thought.
But I think I know what you mean.
@@TheThingoftheSky Thought the same thing, we're still waiting for the next chapter I guess...
@@simonostermann5284 read it second time, realized his advice is actually the full thing: "if you need to, get up"

@@TheThingoftheSky Ah I see now, thanks for clarifying lol
Lol your comment gave me a chuckle, thank you! ❤@@TheThingoftheSky
You reminded me what it feels like to be looked at with love and passion.
My brother thank you. I lost my beautiful wife (34) to cancer this year. We had our whole life ahead of us. I am so lost and have been running in many ways from the pain ever since. You are correct. I need to make time to sit with it and embrace and understand this grief and find a way to live alongside it.
🥺❤️ I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m sending you my love and support ❤️
I’m sorry for your loss. Did your wife take an experimental mRNA shot in the last few years? It may seem crass to ask, but if she did maybe you should consider the crimes against humanity many of spoke up about. If she didn’t I am sorry to have bothered you. I still send love and compassion. 🙏🏽🫂❤️
@@BigDaddyDruShe did. Her symptoms presented themselves shortly after her second shot. We always suspected there was a link and our doctor said it was possible. My wife was so healthy beforehand… never drank in her life, never smoked either, only ate healthy foods and exercised. Her family has no history of cancer. 😢How can I find more information on this?
@@onamaehadanieru9600 I just want to say again I am sorry for your loss. 🫂❤️. I imagine you’re in your 30s or 40s like myself. Do not let the anger or sadness consume you. Do not quit on us. It’s going to be a long fight to bring those responsible to Justice, and we’re going to need you. Make your wife proud. Stand up. Speak up. You will see her again, and when you do she will know you fought righteously in her honor. I know this sounds crazy coming from a stranger on the internet, but all the information you seek is within you. Unplug from the internet for a while. Plug into yourself. Cultivate your discernment. Find your new path as a warrior in this world. Be brave. Be courageous. For her. For your community for what is right.
I lost my fiance at 31 this year due to sudden illness.
it sucks that we arent alone but its nice that we arent alone
I started feeling like once again GIVING UP.
I shall try GIVING IN instead.
A small sliver of hope returns. THANK YOU

Nice distinction.
This energy rolled in for me today. It brought me to a stand still. I sit with a deep longing. An ache I literally feel in my chest. I feel stranded in a space of nowhere. A ghost unseen. Like a fish in a glass bowl, separated from the collective. I am the peculiar alien. Dismissed.
- Appreciate your chat. 💚
I can totally relate to that. Well said
Wow.. this mirrors my feelings today and this video pops up and then I see your comment
This resonates with me
Spot on.
I feel it too. You are not alone ❤
This chap seems wise beyond his years.. it's good to see that all our philosophical musings that happen in the privacy of our minds when we're feeling lost aren't unique to ourselves, we're surrounded by people hiding their own existential angst and that should give us some comfort and company.
Im here again 12 days later. I'm not moving. Im sitting with myself, and I'm praying.
My soul suffers, thank you I'm in deep pain right now and I tried to escape
was in the same place for the last months, it was horrible, just try to sit with it, feel your way through the dark, even it makes no sense to your mind yet, you got this bro

Same here friend. Depression is back big time. 38 years I've been fighting this shitty illness.
@@wingnut71 do not worry my friend it won't last but you will always be here shining in the darkness
I feel your pain💔
Suffering from depression and anxiety. Scared to death of what tomorrow might bring. I couldnt grow up. My little me is scared
i am not moving since 7 months now. I Have severe anxiety and my wife left me in January. I am sitting down with my strong sadness, lonilness ,pain ans anxiety since 7 month on my own. I just accept the emotions and try not to judge what happens inside of me.
After 7 month i can feel a transformation coming. I feel becoming more softer more compassionate.
Selflove comes automatically when you just stay with your pain and not get distracted from the outer world. I can relate very much to what you say.
Best of luck. Time heals.
Well said. You’re young and wise. Unusual combination. 😊 Thank you, David Mc Donald. ❤
I'm watching you from France, just discovered your video and I just found it so interesting.. this idea of not running away from our monsters under the bed, to embrace them, locate them, ask them what they want from us is just absolutely right and accurate. This sadness I've had inside for years, I don't want to run away from it anymore. I would just like to understand it, love it and let it go. Thank you for the video 🙏🙏🥰
Ice cream can help🕺⭐
Thanks!
What a wise young man
Blessings from Cornwall 🎉
I'm half Irish born in sheffield England and 56. You even look a bit like my younger self, I had many many shrooms around the age of 20, one trip blew my illusions away, never been the same since. Been on a fantastic rollercoaster of enlightenment and self learning since. Had a breakdown at 49, caused by burnout...still grafting on the roads and buildings, associating with people that fed off my energy until I had none left. For the last 4 years I've hardly moved, I won't...I take everything head on and appreciate the creator's love and everything good about the world. Nature is key, look to that, love it, learn from it, go out and drink from natural springs, observe birds, learn their calls and habits, start foraging a bit...learn the properties of wild plants and trees. Do a bit of fishing, be thankful....say thankyou to any possible creator or divine consciousness, no big prayers to a dedicated so called "God" or religion.
Most of all be grateful for this chance to experience this wonderful planet and life, as hard and hearbreaking it can seem to us. And like you say, stand fast, be firm and definitely do less when times get you down. Hold your position until clarity comes and the external forces allow and want you to do so.
Obviously damaged your brain with too many magic mushrooms..?
Commenting so I can come back to this video in a few. Peace and love to all watching.
20. Been struggling with MDD. C-PTSD, and some other diagnosed mental illnesses. Been suppressing the cries of my inner child, wanting to cry and cry and cry it all out and be heard and loved. Growing up, I never felt very loved. I was emotionally neglected. I'm in therapy & my therapist helps me process things, but this video helped me release the cries of that emotionally neglected kid, who only ever wanted to be loved and protected- instead being abused on a near daily basis- scared and confused and lost. I am slowly healing as time goes on and I process grief and losses. Thank you for posting this video. Thank you for your help.
Jesus loves you, you need a Savior. Ask Jesus to forgive your sins and be your Savior. Praying for you.
@@darthjedi99 I'm so conflicted as to whether God Almighty really exists or not- my parents are Christians themselves, and I think that's part of why I distanced myself from The Lord. I feel like there's more out there than what the human eye can see, but the amount of times I've cried out to God with no answer over and over again has left me unsure as to if he can even hear me. I feel lost and uncertain when it comes to religion, but nonetheless, maybe one day I will try to believe again. Maybe I really do need a savior, especially in vulnerable times like this
I'm having stomach problem s, and my anxiety is so very bad. I've got to have some test done. I ask everyone that will please pray for me. I'm deeply concerned about my stomach. Bless you all 🙏♥️
Praying for you! I hope all is going to be well and your stomach gets better and you get healed! ❤💯
I will pray for you. God bless you.
I pray for you🙏. Hope U get better soon..
I get stomach problems from my anxiety- my digestive system just completely shuts down, it's scary. It's happened 4 times now over a few years. Each episode usually lasts about 2 months. I drop about 20 pounds each time. I literally have to eat semi solid food and over time, I can start adding food items back in, and in the mean time, its various types of medication to help keep me going. Hang in there. 🙂
Sometimes stress and anxiety causes stomach problems. At least for me the stress and anxiety from my ptsd causes me to have regular stomach problems. God bless ❤❤
Who are you?!!! This was amazing. I'm 57 and this was so perfect - been running for 50 years. Ready not to move. Been getting to this place over the last couple of weeks. Thsnk you. ❤
Me too. No more running
I’ve had to stop…
David I have to say this is single handedly one of the most eloquent and brilliant videos I’ve watched in the history of internet activity. 🎉 u are a seeer
This is one very wise young man. Pay heed.
TBH.....he looks a bit of a loser..?
I'm young, but my entire life has been permeated by a deep loneliness. Both exclusion and seclusion. I'm in good health, not entirely stupid, live in a first world country, have never gone without a meal, have activities I enjoy doing, but I cannot escape the feeling. Ive never had an easy time making friends and definitely not romance.
But this video made me realize maybe I shouldn't try to run from the loneliness in the first place. Maybe that is the first step to changing my situation
The comment section is so warm . Makes me emotional that there are so many people who can care. And how we dont meet them when we are down to our lowest point . We must reach out , say help. Its the bravest thing one can do . Do not give up. We are here to play this game of suffering, lets enjoy it.
This was fantastic. If I remember right, there's a teaching by the Buddha in which fear comes to him and his response is not to move. I remember feeling that that teaching would be impossible for me to follow, because I would remain stuck in it, maybe forever. This idea that we will stuck forever, I think this drives us to dissociate. And of course it is impossible, one could never be stuck forever. But the child who first fled the pain could not know that. And I love how you adamantly state that that child is _literally_ there in us. I believe that, somehow, and I hope that this will give me the compassion to stay.
oh wow 💫 I've read a thousand comments today and this one unlocked something. I will look for this teaching; I, too, fear the stuckness. But that's what I have created.. with all this running. Wow.
I listened to this last night after having a really rough day. A large part of the day was me trying to push away my negative feelings and emotions. Fighting with them fighting with myself, or feeling them, which is only ask exacerbating the situation. But after listening, I’m really thinking about it And honoring my feelings and emotions and showing compassion toward myself and allowing them to be in to come through and that they are real by the time I went to bed I was feeling much better and I woke up in the sun shining and I’m going to have a fun day!and I’m going to work on giving love to all of me. Thank you so much and this is talk to text. Sorry if it’s terrible I have been working on it.
How are you getting through now? Any improvements?
@@Ruairi_gym yes! It’s been two weeks, and I am still allowing myself to feel. I had some very bad news two days ago I fully felt it, also understood the reason for the bad news, and already I’ve moved on. I’m bummed but it’s not overwhelming my world.
I still monitor my emotions or feelings, because I think that some of my feelings are quite inappropriate! Lol They are not nice. The worst ones show up when I’m driving but even those I can justify it and work through pretty quickly. But that is definitely a sensitive time. Driving.
I live in a small town in Colorado. In the past few years people from other states who have amazing amounts of money have come here and purchased ALL our property. Housing prices have almost doubled. Rent has doubled. I am now paying $1200 a month For a very small remodeled studio hotel room. I have called the police four times in the last three months on my neighbors in seriously violent situations.
I have a lot of anger and resentment toward people I don’t even know because this is affecting me directly. It is affecting everybody directly, some very positively like the real estate agents, etc. And it feels weird being angry at a group of people, it’s like being a racist, but against a state. So I wonder what to do when these emotions come up that I do not like, I understand the root of it but I feel it. I allow it. And then I feel bad for feeling it.
@@angierox6964 it's brilliant youre keeping check of Ur emotions cause that's not easy , so I totally understand how debilitating our emotions can be , especially when it comes to social interactions, the older I got the more I cut people off cause I feel so disconnected and the more I tried the worst It got so I pretty much keep people at arms reach , small talk but them getting close makes me uncomfortable and scares the shit out of me lol, so i totally get when you talk about
Resentment towards people , I find relationships to be worst for my emotions , over thinking can get overwhelming , and hey I'm so sorry to hear about the bad news , if you need to vent about that dont hold back.. how you find socialising ? And do you have any coping strategies, for me the gym is a big one without it i think id be completely off the reels
Just came back to read comments… My goodness that’s a long comment! Sorry, I guess I just need to let it out once in a while!
@chenath9582 getting there! Thank you ☀️
It's crazy how I was about to exhausted myself by doing another killer workout to distract myself from everything I'm feeling and this video suddenly popped up. Felt personal. Thank you for your message, appreciate it you're so right. 🙏🏻
Look up internal family systems therapy. There's lots of self help stuff on it. That's what this guy's describing.
@martinaasad7226 I do the same, and always have. Working out has been used to quell the pain for 10+ years now
This is one of the most important video's I've ever seen on the internet. Right what I need now as well, I was caught in my usual running from the pain cycle. I'm done with it. I stay with it now.
Dag bas. Bekijk ook eens de videos van j. Krishnamurti
Love it! We live in a world that is consumed with moving. Maybe the answers to happiness aren’t in adding or changing something but in letting go of our need to change what is already here.
Takes a strong individual to do this typa stuff tbh ❤
It’s crazy no one here is talking about “rapid manifestation secrets by marie runner”
This video healed something in me. As I cast my consciousness from my mind and into my chest, I felt a swell of sorrow. The little boy in me wanted to be held, and told that he belonged in the world.
Bravo young man. Great message and thank you for being the voice alot of us aren't quite ready to be yet. Things are starting to break and we will all grow and expand from these times.
Much love and respect to all of those hanging in there and getting through the tough times
Very brave, i can see the pain and compassion in your eyes. And great advice. Accept, experience, and study whatever it is, become it's friend not enemy. And always always ask for help if you feel you can't carry it, please do. Love you all, love yourself.
Thank God i stumbled on to this video. Finally someone who understands ❤️

Don't react from the pain. Be with the pain with gentle awareness. This is the real cure.
'The problem is the way.' They've been saying that since ancient times. Man, life can be difficult sometimes. Stagnant and frustrating.
Moving works for me. Usually I go for a swim in the morning. It helps to clear my mind and works for my body. But I look for moments of solace and silence. Those are needed in this noisy world. But everyone's different. Do what what body and mind allows you to without self harming yourself ❤
David McDonald is speaking the truth, the way out of suffering. This message doesn’t get old. We don’t get to where we do not need to hear it again. It is a valuable message until we drop this body. Thank you David.

And almost every time without fail humans turn their back on him to go back to their antics. Money isn't his invention, all evil is our own invention by perverting his laws & creations

It is our Mind and our Ego that moves us. The Mind has a fear of the unknown. My body is screaming at me to Be Still. This is the hardest thing I have every done! I am partially paralytic..so my body is obviously Helping me! 😊❤
True
Thank you David. I lost my son last month and grieving very badly.
Oh I am so sorry. I lost both my mom and dad recently 2 months apart. Every day is a struggle to keep living
THANK YOU🙏🏼 You don't know how much I needed to hear you today. Very, very wise words!!!❤
Crazy ! I was just saying all this to a friend this morning then shut my shutters and got into bed to do nothing go nowhere but my phone was still on RUclips and this video tuned up ! What you just said is the conclusion I came to, too! We must be onto something. And for those who think taking time out or sleeping it out is a waste of time from my perspective we are eternal beings so there is no such thing as wasting time . 😊
We are clearly not eternal beings based on all the available evidence. In fact, we are very temporary beings. Taking a short rest or time out is fine. But the essence of life is movement, action, and problem solving.
@@sandsmarc Maybe watching 10-20 Near Death Experience,(N.D.E.s ) will give you great comfort in the eternal department. 'Nest Level Soul' is a good RUclips channel to start with . There are several channels many hundreds of experiences to learn from , I've had a N.D.E. it changed my perspective on life . Maybe it would make you feel bigger than you do now . I hope so ❤️
This was profound brother, you summarized addiction perfectly.
The timing of this video was perfect. You helped me cry and feel my emotions over something that I told myself I was fine with, but was actually running from. Thank you ❤
What sweet wisdom coming through one so young as yourself! I shall heed. Made me cry. This fear to feel, push-away. You remind of my own son, “wise beyond his years” at only 27, but always, my little boy. Thank you for sharing David, truly beautiful! - and certainly the truth, much as it can hurt, is always helpful.
Interesting, more so for me as I noticed this the other day. We’re always looking for a distraction, rather than to be alone with our self
I’m a widow - it’s the hardest time ever
I’m so sorry for your loss, pray that you find comfort and peace
My greatest fear is when I lose my husband... I'm sending you love and prayers for comfort ......
Me too. I'm 71 and lost my wife in late 2022. It is lonely.
So sorry for your loss
My husband is declining. I am scared of what I am to go through. He's been good to me, a quiet and decent man. Only married six years. Sadness is overwhelming sometimes.
What a clever clever clever man, obviously talking from experience. Its someone like you who have it within themselves to help others as well as yourself. I know exactly where your coming from. Just brilliant.❤ lots of love from Scotland ❤
You helped me tremendously today. You have no idea. It was so dark in my mind. I didn't move. I cried so hard and then on a hot 28 degree C day here in Ontario Canada, a thunder storm broke out and I was dancing on my balcony and i have no idea how i could be feeling so good.
I got soaking wet, then i ate pizza,haha
Im in a good mood now. What? How is this possible.
You are gifted. We are blessed.
Thank you young man.
Perfect timing on this video. Feeling an incredible amount of frustration, suffering, and helplessness lately. Really trying not to run from it like I always have.
Side note- I went to see Inside Out 2 with my wife and 2 year old son on his birthday last week and balled my eyes out. It's very IFS themed.
Give this man a mental health award, this was extraordinary helpful. I’m grateful to come across this mentorship. 🙏
As soon as I started listening to this I sat still didn't even move my eyes. I allowed myself to catch up with my pain, or my pain to catch up with me. As I sat there I felt my nervous system regulate and my breathing deepen as I passed this tension through my body through awareness. What you offering here is much more than just the teaching. It's a portal itself. Thank you for that.
Thank you, young man. I'm listening.
Fantastic advice.
Nice message, and quite "commanding".
Truth is- one has to be ready for this- as a consistent practice.
It sounds simple (in a way it is)- but the meaning of practicing this consistently- means Deep transformations, and Ego dissolution.
Thank you for the video, great speach!
holy shit, the portal to my truest self. Thank you! Stillness.
This message found me at the right time.
The cure for the pain is in the pain. Wow...
You my sweet human dropped in exactly when I needed your message. That was so powerful. I’m still not moving so I don’t have words at the moment but THANK YOU.
Great advice.
Many years ago I felt like I had to keep changing jobs. Each new job was more money. I was unhappy at each job and no more happier at the next despite more money.
Then I decided I no longer wanted to live in Ohio because of the cold inclement weather. So, I HAD to move to Phoenix. But I hated all the sunshine. Moved back to Ohio.
I’ve decided to just stay put.
Invaluable. Thank you 🙏🏼
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
- Rumi
I watch this at least once a week and it really helps
It may seem silly, but in the past, but one of the things that's helped me is staring at a single point for a minute or so, which helps me feel better.
I've just come across this video again and I'm sending you love and positivity. From Dublin Ireland. Thank you my friend. 🫂♥️
You're all right it is from the throat down to the belly. But mostly in the heart. It would look like a very large hand holding my heart suffocating it and causing pressure in my chest. Being still and noticing your breathing is a very good coping mechanism
