This is a first time seeing a psychiatrist helping ppl ease anxiety naturally rather than forcing them on anti depressants and anxiety meds just because they really need it.
He's trying to sell his book...but I do agree with him..
Ellen Vora also 🙌
I mean sometimes u really do need meds and they can save your life,like if your suicidal or having psychosis,also vitamins and supplements can get expensive,not regulated and if u have insurance usually meds are covered.That said i think it's good to find the root cause of your mental health issues,not just expect the meds to completely do everything.I do wish more Docs would try to help u with nutrition,look into vitamin deficiencies,and hormones among other things.
@briarrose4747 Definitely. It made all the difference for me when my doctor stopped telling me I was imagining my symptoms, and referred me to a specialist. The specialist did some testing, and found I was chronically Vitamin D deficient. 👋🥴
@@briarrose4747 Doctors are not researchers. There are many scientific disciplines who are researchers working on trying to understand depression and anxiety at a biological level. We are probably years or even decades away from getting close.
Many errors will be made before we get there. But for some reason, it is clear that medications have a place in relieving symptoms that range from difficulty coping to unbearable.
There are links that are made, though not perfectly understood. But a great improvement over pre 1960’s - when the stigma of mental illness was so appalling, it was simply not discussed in public or even in the privacy of one’s home. I am that old to remember how it was.
As a therapist who is SO sick of the overprescribing and misdiagnosing, I salute you, sir.
Are you a psychologist or Psychiatrist?
As a psychologist, you cannot prescribe medication.
His methods may be fine for mild anxiety - for severe anxiety and phobic disorders, they are a joke.
Medication is sometimes absolutely necessary for quality of life.
@@user-ow2pk9io4b thank you sir for informing me of what my license can and cannot do. I'm not sure how I would have survived without that information. I interned at a residential trauma treatment center where I did work with severe anxiety and phobias holistically. I'd argue that anxiety is actually the most treatable, even curable mental illness holistically. Almost anything can be treated without medication. I've even had clients with schizophrenia and bipolar functioning very well without medication for several years and counting. I just have one question for you with all your mansplaining.... What exactly are YOUR credentials while you're sitting here explaining my area of expertise to me?
@@user-ow2pk9io4bnecessary is a strong word. it’s relative to the person. if you are mild to moderately struggling with depression and anxiety or even severely, try to pull yourself out. medication isn’t a joke and life changes after starting it. it can even be life threatening depending on side effects. maybe you’ve had to rely on medication and that’s you. but your opinion is a subjective one and it might not be the same for others
@@user-ow2pk9io4band there’s no denying what the original comment said. a lot of doctors are over prescribing. you gotta find the right one if you’re gonna take meds. because a lot of them nowadays, you tell them you have a problem and boom they throw meds at you.
@@user-ow2pk9io4bit is necessary far less than it is prescribed. Maybe you should’ve seen a psychologist first for your anxiety before you went to a psychiatrist
Yes Sir. I was feeling very depressed, very anxious. Blood test revealed anemia, Vitamin D deficiency. After medication of Iron and Vitamins within a month my whole mood changed, no depression and anxeity. I started feeling calmness.
I am also suffering from iron deficiency without anemia serum iron 33 ug/dl I have difficulty with breathing, high blood pressure ND chest pain. Even after 3 iv iron sucrose infusion my symptoms are not getting well ND I am facing headaches (migraine+cluster headaches) ND insomnia I m taking Xanax almost 3 mg day. Can anyone help with me
I got food intolerance too.
@@Zoyaali09I would definitely go to see doctor. You probably did, but tell about all these symptoms.
@@Zoyaali09definitely go see a doctor, you might look into Babesia, also known as babesiosis, many of your symptoms fit that picture. It is a co-infection that one can get from a tick bite. There could be other possibilities as well, but the symptoms you describe, it could be a possibility.
Finally, a compassionate doctor who desires to enable people to self-heal ❤
I withdrew my benzos of +20 years all by myself. No doctor was willing to help me and I had to do it myself in the most adverse circumstances. It is possible. I went through hell and did it all alone. The power of will combined with a discipline works wonders. I wish everyone who's on their withdrawal path huge miracles in their lives. You can do it! 💫💜
Ditto...❤
Amazing work!!! Congratulations that's a BIG deal
thank you...❤️
Wow that's amazing I know how hard it is after several failed reductions my last one was three years ago I did three weeks it was torture the doctor put me back on them I was that bad .thats a huge achievement you should be so proud .not many doctors prescribe them now .as there so hard to come off . the doctors just don't explain about the addiction and there is not enough information about them out there .Big hugs on your massive achievement 😘❤
@@jessicaharrison1401 most doctors don't care about their patients. It's us who suffer, not them. No one should be put into long term psychotropic drugs treatments to begin with. I'm still struggling with small doses compared to what I used to take and avoiding caffeine, tea and anything that triggers my anxiety + taking herbal infusions and meditating a lot. But the main job is to know that no doctor will help you (except rare cases like the doctor in this channel) and you'll have to rely on the information available to you. Read the instructions in your benzos, it says how to reduce it. Read it carefully and see what works for you. Trust your body, you will suffer and feel that which you were given medication for. You see when the limit is. You learn. It's a damn addiction and no one warns you about it but you can do it if you really want to. Your body eventually gets used to the new patterns and responds in a more natural way. You must be willing to do it, pay the price, be patient and constant and brave and decide that you no longer need to depend on it but go carefully so that you don't need to suffer dangerous consequences. Light hugs to you 💫 You are not alone: whenever you're struggling, remember there's someone else out there struggling too!!
50% of my anxiety went away from cutting out all caffeine. Now if I have even a sip of anything with caffeine I will instantly start trembling, feel that heat going down my spine, and start feeling the racing thoughts.
Btw so many great and supportive comments in this comment section - thank you all, I’m going to use some of the suggestions!
AMEN! I have been saying this to friend and family for 20 years! They think I’m out of my mind!
Did you take caffeine to aid anxiety in the first place? Im asking because im kinda dependant on it for keeping calm and focused. And when i dont consume caffeine i feel horrible even after the withdrawal phase.
@@saneshmaharaj3801maybe you have adrenal fatigue? Do you feel tired but wired at night, that is usually the hallmark symptom? And caffeine didn’t always trigger anxiety for me, I used to drink coffee all day long and I’m not sure how or why but over time it became a massive anxiety trigger for me which I didn’t really notice until I removed it. Hope it helps ❤
@@PolishPocahontass I've done research on adrenal fatigue as i haven't heard of it before and it seems to match my own symptoms on normal days when im not consuming caffeine...Thank you so much for bringing that to my awareness it helps greatly🙏🏻🤍
Yes I to need to cut out the coffee😢. I have started cutting back and its going ok. For me it will be a Slow tapper like a year.
I suffered severe anxiety 20 years ago as a teenage. Got diagnosed with ADHD. Spent my whole life fighting ADHD. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Australia. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them
YES sure of Dr.benfungi. Did straight shrooms in few nights. Left me like a blank slate after words, no more addictions, pains, ptsd and depression. Shit saved my life, all thanks to Dr.benfungi
Yes he's Dr.benfungi.Shrooms to me is a natrual healer. I know a guy who has used mushrooms in the same way and they have really helped him. mah dudes have safe trips all.
I would like to know from those who have solved PTSD and anxiety, if they have solved it definitively and how to understand what quantity of psilocybin to take and when, for how long. And can you really heal without having an addiction?
Thanks to everyone for helping me understand, I want to understand if it's
something that can help me solve the problem (I have c-ptsd)
From my experience it really works excellently! It doesnt even need to be a full hit. With potent shrooms 2-3 small ones will still make a clear difference. It will be a few hour cosy rumbling moment around rest time, but afterwards its just calm and you feel amazing and gain your freedom. Psilocybin is different dudes, its the only "treatment" I would recommend to someone who genuinely wants to get better. There is no addiction, withdrawal, or negative side effects. It's just pure healing., far more effective than any anti-depressant. You can thank me later,
1. hypogly, hypothyroidism, hypotension
2. Dye’s , preservative😂, sugar
3. Prayer, Meditation, breathing technique
4. Ask question, Is it true?
Saved 😂❤
The problem is that people should feel connected to each other and supported if we had that we’d have a lot of less mental illness
Absolutely agree
True but thats not easy. Therefore, we need Jesus. I had learnt to put my trust in Jesus Alone. And He never Fail me.🙌🏻👑✝️⚖🛐🛐🛐🔑🦅🦋🕊🕊🕊😊💵🥩🍗🍇🍒🥖🥐🍵😋
Also, fix your gut microbiom. Lot's of antibiotic use can devastate your friendly gut bacteria and cause all kinds of emotional issues-from anxiety, depression, insomnia, etc.
Yes..I’m still trying to figure out how to fix my damaged gut..and growing up on antibiotics has made it hard for me to stick with a healthy diet cause the sugar cravings from SIBO and candida overgrowth are insane 😭
I love your channel. It has helped me so much. I'm 70 now and wish I had not wasted all these years. God bless you!❤
Took so many antibiotics due to UTIs.
Totally recomend it, when I have a good diet that feeds my microbiome, anxiety drops
@@kimrose80 Dr. Gundry has excellent info. He has taken Dr. Amen to his podcast
First time seeing a Psychiatrist that includes prayers in a medication, and im loving it ❤
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Yes, dr.sporessss I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Yes he is. dr.sporessss
Microdosing helped me get out of the pit of my worst depressive episode, a three year long episode, enough to start working on my mental health.
Can Dr. sporessss send to me in UK?
Absolutely, his offerings extend to global delivery, prioritizing complete confidentiality for individuals valuing their privacy.
I suffer from anxiety. Prayer&Meditation absolutely helps me. I am much less anxious bc i remind myself often what matters. I still get anxious in some situations, mostly social situations, however my overall level of anxiety has greatly reduced.
How’d you do it I struggle from social anxiety
I feel the same way!
A rare medical professional who stands by his Hippocratic Oath….God bless you brother 🙏🏻⚖️
I have struggled with mental illness and my mental health since I was a kid. Before I even knew what those terms were. After years of depression, anxiety, and even an attempt to take my life, I never thought I would be able to live without psych medications. I clung to them because it was the only thing that made my mind quiet, but it also made me a zombie. Microdosing has given me control of my mental health for the first time, and they essentially gave me my life back.
I’ve been researching on psychedelics and it’s benefits to individuals dealing with Anxiety, Depression, ADHD and from my findings, they really work and I’ve been eager to get some for a while but its been difficult to get my hands on them.
The Trips I've been having really helped me a lot. I’m now able to meditate and I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
I was having this constant, unbearable anxiety due to work stress. Not until I came across a very intelligent mycologist. He saved my life honestly
His name is *DR Adolf Petter*
@ohmakure4716
I feel the same way too. I put too much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels. I am also glad to be a part of this community.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30
Amen
Amen!
Amen
Amen.
Amen
Years ago I suffered from anxiety and depression, I put on a lot of weight after leaving the Army. Was a long process of coming on and off medication for about a year and a half. I changed my living situation and improved on it.
The fundamental thing I do to protect myself from anxiety and depression these days is regular exercise. Makes you fitter, healthier and way more mentally resilient.
That’s nice to hear, and did you loose the weight you gained?
I’m Nutritional Therapist that works in Mental Health area, and I’m so grateful for bringing the awareness about fundamental principals of wellbeing - nutrition, lifestyle and spirituality. Thank you!💓 However, it is VERY IMPORTANT not to demonise medications. They have their place. Sometimes, they literally, save lives. And they need to be taken first, before diet and lifestyle changes. But sometimes is the opposite… And sometimes there is no need to take them at all. Everything depends on individual needs of a patient. We, as practitioners have a huge responsibility and need to be wise and very careful of statements around mental health and other health problems. I wish you all blessings and wellbeing🙏🏻❤️
Thumbs up for the advice.. Imagine a doctor advising against medicines as a first resort.. That's what is called as honesty..great doctor 👍👌
Yep, like Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Dr. Michael Greger, Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. Brooke Goldner, Dr. Saray Stancic- check them out too!
I had no idea there was a connection between low iron and anxiety. Thank you Dr.❤
Yes that's how mine started, low iron
I'm adding music to the list. Funky, upbeat, high energy music works every time! If you can move or dance with with the music, even better.
It’s a fantastic approach at diagnosis and treatment.
If suffer terribly from anxiety and have done all that you have suggested with some improvement, but what did it for me was cardio and weights. 1 hour a day of combination has nearly cured me. Yoga twice a week with meditation.
Exercise increases the hippocampus. Do your own research, but if you are serious about not taking meds, then find what works for you. Be consistent in your methods. Good luck and I hope you thrive like you are meant to. 🙏
I was able to get off a benzo after trying for 10 years. The doctor put me on it for sleep. After doing everything you mentioned and more I was able to get off it. My doctor is amazed and proud. When I got ready to get off no one could help me. Everyone told me it was impossible. God gave me the strength and wisdom. I did not know about you or your book at the time. But I know those principles is what cured me!!
What benzo was it and how long did you take it for? May I know the dosage as well? I take Clonazepam 2 mg/day. Thank you, Daisy.
And now magically you sleep all night and take nothing?
@@Drea62621 that's my question too! I just took 2 mg of Clonazepam. I'd have a couple of drinks now. More than that calms me down but the next day becomes a nightmare with tachycardia and restlessness.
Daisy, you have a great opportunity to help others who are in suffering and take benzos. I can only remind and request you humbly. Wish you the best, love and regards.
I am very happy to hear that you were able to come off a benzodiazepine.
I was put on Clonazepam at 40 years old - it was to be for life.
My psychiatrist and my GP gave me all the info I should know about it. It was my decision and I am now 70. Without Clonazepam, I would have had zero quality of life.
I did come off once - my choice. I thought maybe because I had been exposed to all my phobias for 15 years and had a normal life, that the exposure would have taken away my phobias.
I was wrong. After 6 months, everything came back. So no choice. However, coming off slowly within a period of 6 months, and under the supervision of an MD, I did not really have any withdrawal symptoms.
Wow, I wish my psychiatrist had suggested some of this stuff. I eventually worked it out on my own and this perfectly aligns with what I found works. I had to completely change my diet, work out (both cardio and weights, and hard - to the point that I have visible muscle), do breathwork, hypnosis, and meditation. I’m not even the same person anymore 😃 Most recently I have also swapped to a flip phone as my main phone, because my smartphone was a source of anxiety.
Right on man, thanks. My relationship with God and forcing myself to become more responsible got rid of about 90% of my anxiety
Amen🙌🏻👑✝️🛡⚖😊 Same here. Indeed we serve an awesome, almighty... God😊
@@sereneanna4040 Amen!
Lovely comment
THIS IS REAL.
Took me over a decade to figure out my chronic anxiety was simply low blood sugar.
Took me passing out at work, going to the Dr, getting blood sugar monitor to regularly check levels.
The onset of extreme anxiety 100% of the time coincided with a drop in blood sugar.
Dr. Amen I was prescribed Xanax for general anxiety for six years. I was told nothing about the drug, just that it would help me. At the six year mark, a new doctor told me I could stop taking it cold turkey. I ended up in the hospital with severe withdrawal and under the care of a withdrawal program. It took me 2 years to withdraw and really messed up my health, emotionally and physically. It was a lonnnnnng road back home. 😢 NEVER AGAIN!!!
Benzo withdrawl is rough. Congrats on getting thru it.
@@michelleauvil86 thank you so much!!!
Antidepressants too…
The body can become dependent upon benzos within 14 days.
Patients should have to sign a waiver and be thoroughly warned about what can happen with these drugs.
@joh569 thank you for your comment and I agree. I was given no warnings and was told during withdrawal that Xanax should only be taken a maximum of six weeks !!! Instead, I unknowingly took it for six years. Those doctors were flabbergasted!!!
Thanks again.
Excellent list. Sounds like great advice just for simply living well. Interestingly, these kinds of list seem to almost only focus on the physical. What about the emotional and specifically focusing on your relationships and connections. More often, our greatest stress, depression, and anxiety stem from poor connections or unresolved relationships especially family. I think humanity would do much better if we focused more on together-care than self-care.
Wow great point. Together-care absolutely 👏👏💕
Definitely, and a good combo of both!
Agree! Thinking patterns are usually a big culprit behind anxiety. I like to refer to anxiety as what is really is-fear so people can really understand what they are feeling.
Kevin, what a beautifully expressed point. All that selfing rarely leads towards a healing/flourishing path.
@@yatesmswspot on! Fears and anxiety are very destructive. Its sort of hinder us in our daily life. And the person sort of freak off or suffer panic attacks.
I overcome by seekin God persistently, intensely n finally had a breakthru😊
So true irom deficency can make you very anxious. Awesome doctor
Brilliant to address anxiety with tools, diet, supplements b4 going the more extreme route w/ meds - most of which are brutal or just plain impossible for many to get off of😢 Diaphragmatic breathing works!💥⚡️🔥
Doctor Amen you're good hearted and generous human being ❤❤❤ God bless you 🙏
These suggestions are spot on, however many Americans are not willing to try these 1st
Dr. thanks for your helpful medical information, I have found that aerobic exercise is fantastic for relaxing anxiety and helping to rise up to out of depression. Just simple changes with powerful implications!
I thought this was gonna be "exercise, eat healthy, etc." and I already do those things. But I was surprised that there actually was some new information. I've had constant anxiety for weeks now which may be a combination between the darkness and simply being unsatisfied with my situation, but it might as well be due to low iron as I sometimes am low in iron. Thank you for the tips
Vitamin D can cause anxiety too
Well too low Vitamin D
Thanks to you I stopped drinking coffee. That was my source of anxiety. Thank you so much!
Chinese medecine and a martial art that is about learning to relax in difficult situations is what helped me.
what kind of chinese medicine? and can i find it in europe?
what treatment depends on you, one size does not fit all. Don't know about europe, I hear its quite regulated in certain countries where only conventional medecine doctors are allowed to practice certain aspects of TCM when theres no need for that since its completly different. Anyways depends where your at. @@user-s7777
Can you tell what Chinese medicine and which martial art technique helped you it will benefit many suffering from it
Please kindly provide the details?
@@sunshineshining4167 it’s herbal medicine which consist of “healthy ingredients” that make our overall well-being better. We don’t know exactly the ingredients but they are mostly from nature.
These are all very very helpful and natural ideas that ALL providers should implement before prescribing meds. I can imagine that this works for more then 50 % of people. Meds and therapy are wonderful if these don’t help though. Nothing wrong with that ❤
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 you said it
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
😊🙌🏻👑✝️🛡⚖ Praise the Lord, i was healed of all negativeness ie depression, failure, fears, bankruptcy, unforgiveness... finally at 63 yrs old🙄🙄🙄
Well better late than never! 😊 I seek the Lord diligently, persistenly, sincerely... n was set free 🛐🛐🛐📖🔑🦅🦋🕊🕊🕊💕😊
I got a job in an IFC and finally had my sweet success 💵🥩🍗🍇🍒🥖🥐🍵😋 I sing Jesus loves the little children n all e infants stopped cryin😅😂🤔👑✝️💕😇😇🧸
Physical health is very good, meditate lots, exercise lots, yoga lots, diet good yet still extremely anxious and depressed
Wow! A REAL doctor that knows how the body works n doesnt know how to ONLY perscribe drugs! 🙌
Dr. Amen knows his stuff.. People should take heed.
Subscribed. If there were only 1% more people like this man, the world would be a much better place. Humans would get the right treatments, focused on the source instead of just some quick fix farmaceutical pill that's made to temporarily suppressing the symptoms... And our pets and animals in general would get the treatment they actually need instead of being misdiagnosed and often put to sleep, because most veterinarians have absolutely no idea what they're doing.
Shocked …this video has renewed my hope in physicians actually helping people
My therapist said that I should cut coffee and I did and my anxiety improved 80% It was a game changer for me. For 2 years, I drank just occasionally 1 small cup and no more than 2 days in a row. After these years, I started to drink decaffeinated coffee daily without giving me anxiety. But meanwhile, I exist the depression through therapy.
had blood work done & Vitamin D was extremely low so I started supplementing w Vitamin D3 & anxiety is gone >completely!
Gotta agree with the healthy diet so much. I've experienced it myself, cutting down caffeine really seal the deal. Caffeine, gluten, and dairy free for 2 years now 🎉
Blessings for doing God’s work Dr. 🙏🏾
👍 thanks Jesus 🙌
This is the way! Dr. Peterson is telling the same things for years. So important
What helped my anxiety was incorporating probiotics and fermented foods in my diet, it took weeks to really work but I’ve noticed the difference
This information is GOLD Dr. Amen. Thankyou so much for sharing this! Much gratitude and love to you ❤❤❤
Thank you Dr. Amen. I watched you many times on public TV and learned a lot.
God bless you!🙏
After suffering from anxiety for 4 years, I finally gotten hypnotherapy b4 getting into a psychiatrist. Just after a treatment it almost completely gone away, i don't think I need pills later on. He's so true for that!
As a Hypnotherapist I love seeing this.
i’m seeing a hypnotist next week. i can’t wait
Sadly it only works for very suggestible people
Amen. As a nurse with 20 years in an acute clinic, some more in out of clinic intensive care, I agree fully. Many, if not most of the patients would have been MUCH BETTER OF, if they would DO THE WORK, as you suggest. Not only for anxiety reasons.
Every teenager needs to know this.
Food is medicine. 👍
Yes...too many eating takeaway food
I have had 2 concussions/had traumas. I was hit by a Drunk Driver when I was 12 years old.
I have been doing all of these you have said for the past several years. This last concussion was so bad. I don't think this always applies to everyone. TBI is very serious and it is so hard to recover from . Very few doctors understand how hard it is to recover from it. Plus add menapause, the death of my sister this year, the anniversary of my son's death.
It's not always that simple.
All I do is prayer and meditation.
Vegetarian, gluten free, sugar free and I don't get enough to eat. I had c-diff on and off for 10 years. It's been about 7 years since but getting my gut to absorb things again, is so hard. I lack nutrition.
I truly wish it was as simple as you put it but it is not. Specially menopausal women.
I truly wished all those things worked but they aren't.
I have watched your stuff for a long time. Sometimes life is not that simple. Watching my son pass away from cancer. 3 years of my husband having a brain tumor. I am exhausted and my brain needs a break.
I truly wish nutrition was everything. No one works harder at it than me for years. Tons and tons therapy, hypnotherapist. I have paid out a small fortune on trying to get well. My husband is a disabled veteran, we just don't have the money to spend on all these things.
Life is way more complicated for some of us out here.
But I do wish the very best and I have enjoyed your lectures. 🙏
This , under 3 minute video helps you more than going to a typical Dr of the system for years. #RealExperiences
Wonderful advice! I have done a whole bunch of those throughout my life, and psychiatrist people are always amazed that I am "not on antidepressants considering my life (massive loss of family members due largely to an underlying genetic disorder).
My doctor prescribed me something with a serious list of side effects and when I asked about them then she told me there are none except drowsiness.. I then ask about changing my diet ( could I achieve better mental health) and she told me "not really" but I just don't believe her and try to incorporate healthy habits into my life now. Seeing your video just confirms and furthers my understanding and inspires me to get rid of my anxiety the best way I can. I don't want pills if I can stay away from them.
FINALLY a REAL provider who cares about cares about healing and not prescibing a pill that causes dependency and lonf term effects! Most people dont even know about benzo withdrawal..even the PCP didn't take it seriously..its scary
Wow!!! Thank you so much for your wonderful and helpful advises!!! So simple and to the point. You did not spend an hour to give such a valuable information!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH DR.!!!!❤❤❤
What a gem of a man and doctor to share this advice
You’re a Genius Merci 🎉❤🎉❤
Feeling anxious is our subconscious mind saying 'pay attention'. Emotions are textbooks @ Life University. Appreciate everything = highest vibration 💖
I am truly grateful and amazed for this information. My 6 year old daughter had anxiety and when I took her to the pediatrician she put her on antidepressants which I refused to give her.And I've prayed and she's absolutely fine now.
Wow. Education and information about Natural fixes first before medication.
It requires discipline and determination to keep Investing in Preventive Lifestyle.
Thanks to Professionals like you for sharing 10 Golden Nuggets.
All Natural, Unprocesed Food + Vegan + Holistic Lifestyle has been lifechanging for me❤
What if you have anxiety coz you were on constant high alert all through childhood?
That's is called Complex PTSD.... Or childhood PTSD
Pray n seek God more n be set free. Did just tat n was Healed 🙌🏻👑✝️🛡⚖😊🦅🦋🕊🕊🕊
@@sereneanna4040I'm happy to hear this. However each person's different and God answers their prayers in different ways. Also, there are very degrees of anxiety. Yes I believe God can heal them all if he chooses to however medications, and God does use medicine to help a lot of people to live.
Aside from the physical issues try to keep a clear conscience. Not worrying and feeling bad about things youre doing/ done is a big help to me.
That said this doctor is a lot more helpful than 90% of doctors who give you an ekg and then prescribe xanax.
That's brilliant. I've been warned not to carry, guilt, shame or remorse for too long. They can weigh you down heavily!
I suggest you both ~ if you do not do so already ~ TRUST YOURSRLVES in that if you feel THE SLIGHTEST temptation to LIE about a given CHOICE....realize that is your internalized sense of ETHICS telling you that is the WRONG choice.
This simple practice dramatically decreases the possibility you might lie (if and only if you heed this advice and REFUSE to act upon the "wrongable" option).
Guilt shame regret and stress do not manifest if you need not lie: to others or yourself. ❤
@@DanceintheRaine666
Excellent advice, thanks!
Ain’t that the truth.
@@ianstuart5660 That has been a highly significant factor contributing to my present state of being. Thank you. It'll help!
If you don’t have coverage for healthcare, your anxiety will hit the roof, thank you for the alternative ❤
You are an angel
You missed the most important. Exercise! Watch the Dog Whisperer. Anxiety in dogs leads to frustration and eventually violent behavior. Same goes for humans. Walk a dog every day and it relaxes. Same with humans. 😊
Thank you Dr Amen for your wonderful video giving tools to help manage anxiety disorders.
I have had anxiety disorder most of my adult life, sometimes worse and other times somewhat better.
Interesting you mentioned low iron as my last Blood test shows I have low iron.
I'll definitely check with my doctor. (GP)
Subscribed straight away! Very good info thx 🙏
YES! PLEASE PEOPLE! Take your mental health seriously! Take responsibility for yourself and wellbeing! I'm right now taking care of my depressed 77 yo mother who NEVER took care of her mental health. AND for some reason she becomes psychotic while taking antipsychotics. It's really no fun taking care of a depressed person. Believe me that taking care of a child is much much much joyful and easier.
P.S.
It's sad that she is an ex-pharmacist, born in 1946, who was thought of producing proper herbal products for many illnesses, when pharmacies were much more into herbalism. And now she is only looking for a quick fix with antidepressants and antipsychotics. I literally cannot do it anymore. I'm working on finding a place in care home for her and that's it, I'll enjoy my vacation to the fullest when I find a place for her.
I'm a 77 year old woman who often deals with depression. I've found music that helps and also have my own room and live in the country so can get outside which helps. I'm married but my husband doesn't understand and our marriage has never been the best anyway. Actually nobody can understand unless they have experienced it. If it were not for my grandchildren, I wouldn't want to live. You cannot fix another person, they have to find their own way out. I do watch a lot of RUclips videos, some on self-help, some music, some movies. I like being alone and having peace and quiet. I deal with past trauma and guilt, and there are lots of YT videos that help me deal with that. As far as a home for your mother, a good assisted living home might be nice, but not a nursing home. Please try to understand, she doesn't want to be in that dark place. But you cannot fix her. You can let her know you love her, try to brighten her surroundings (yellow flowers does it for me) and maybe help her find some music she likes (maybe some oldies?) If she cries, let her cry. Tears are healing. My worst time was when I was so numb I couldn't cry, and it was such a relief when I found music to help me cry. It would be horrible to me if I thought I was a burden to my family and I'm sure she feels the same. But my children do understand and my husband finally understood that I don't want him to "fix" me. (Men seem to think they have to fix things, which is a real pain). I have an outside swing where I have made me a "zen" area. If you don't have any area like that, then maybe a nice assisted living place might indeed be a better option for you. And by all means, take care of your own needs and health. One more thing that has helped me has been some supplements like GABA and Ashwagandha and also herb teas for calming effects. But I don't take any medications and I did my research, so have to be careful of side effects that might clash with prescription drugs.
@@conniepowell2013 you are delightful in comparison to her. She is practically bedridden right now and she is psychotic, yelling at me, insulting me, literally going crazy. I'm cooking, cleaning, taking care of her...
@Ladida386 I'm so sorry. It has to be extremely tough for you. I don't know where you live but is there any home health available there? Of course, i know that can be expensive unless there is something that maybe Medicare would cover. Perhaps there are resources available and would be worth researching. But you still need to protect your own health and sanity, so don't feel guilty if you must place her in a senior health facility. Personally, I would rather die than to be such a burden to any of my family members. My mom died at age 90, but thankfully she did not reach the same stage as your mom. But she did need constant care. Fortunately, my sister has no children and a nice home. She did have have a job, so she had home health provide some assistance. My other sister and I would stay with her sometimes when we could. My dad passed away earlier and he did become more angry and we understood his mental state and knew he didn't mean it. He and mother were still living in their own home at that time. It is a hard situation that many are facing right now. God bless you for the sacrifices you have already made, and I pray you will find the help you need soon.
@ClaudiaM-js6ol yeah, good luck finding people and facilities so fast.
She should have her usual check up with her personal psychiatrist in August, he was absent for quite some time. She had an appointment in mid November, in the mean time insomnia was in full power, we had to visit psychiatric ER where they gave her antidepressant which helped almost immediately. But then her psychiatrist gave her antipsychotics which made her psychotic. He didn't want to hear a word about that antipsychotic is not working the way it should. We were waiting for her personal doctor for more than a month due to prolonged sick leave, her replacement didn't want to do nothing but to talk a little bit, a little bit of blood test, which she didn't want to comment, because she was waiting for the regular doctor to come back to work. I got papers from her doctor for the care home last Friday. Her psychiatrist is only taking phone calls when he is just trying with new dosages and different antipsychotics. Thank God we have an appointment with him on Tuesday. And thank God mom started to see that he has no idea what he is actually doing. In the meantime I'm dealing with my mom's issue. I called every single institution that would be helpful to get me a trained person, NOT WITHOUT THE PAPER I WAS WAITING FROM HER DOCTOR!
@ClaudiaM-js6ol I know.
Meditation and yoga really helped me a lot 🙏💯👍
I've recently introduced EFT. Works wonders along with breathwork and other forms of meditation. It's time we ditch any form of anti-depressant, it should never be the first choice for the treatment of anxiety. Thankfully I have a doctor that listens and cares for me, too.
I wish I could afford to see him in person!!! He’s local to me! Ok, I’d skip the hypnosis, the rest of this is great.
This is super true Doc. I have really bad Iron deficiency coupled with Bipolar Disorder. I took my iron two days in a row and yes I have constipation but I feel so much more calmer and better.
I have to remember to take them. THANK YOU🙏🙏
May God bless you doctor 😊
Thanks❣️
So individual! If someome has gone through religious or spiritual abuse then prayer is probably an anxiety trigger.
Good tips for people suffering on a mild scale.
Im pretty astonished that everything you mentioned are external things. You mention to do the work. But you fail to mention that perhaps a persons anxiety is due to how they are thinking about the world or themselves, and over time they have engaged in maladaptive thinking patterns that no medication or change of diet is going to fix.
Exactly 👌🏻 God bless you 🙏🏻
I struggle anxiety my whole life am 23 amd the reason is i dont take care myself the more i eat , sleep and detach the negative stories in my head the better i dont experience anxiety am still struggle as i forget to eat specially lunch hrs and am introvert i sometimes enjoy the stories my brain tells me which made me more anxious bcoz i now know oncr i enter that desired overthinking loop it takes me weeks to comeback😢i hope i will do better as years pass by am so addicted to think even tho i know its not good for me its also bcoz i dont have many friends hopefully i’ll have and overthink less
This will sound dumb but no fap really helps. You’ll notice the benefit after about 5 days or so. Try it man. There’s a lot of testimonials on RUclips.
Also as you get older it gets better.
Are you from Germany? Regardless of where you're from, let's remain connected? Thank you!😊
My sister was just having seizures and panic attack right now. And God has answered my prayers, I FINALLY found A GENUINE CARING DOCTOR. THANK YOU for the helpful tips. The meds have ruined her nerves 😢
Thank you, Dr Daniel. I really needed this video today. Kind regards.
Before knowing i had coeliac disease i had anxiety. Coeliac disease stops nutrients from absorbing, therefore you get low in vitamins and minerals.
In childhood, the mind archives the bad moments that human being experiment
and when something happens that is similar to what was experienced the mind remembers it, emitting feelings of anger, fear, anguish or depression. It is important that every time something unpleasant happens and we feel bad about it, we realize that we are feeling ECHOES OF THE PAST, so that we don't go through life feeling bad about insignificant things. There are several ways to get rid of those constant warnings from the mind.
When you feel anger, fear, anxiety or depression, accept to feel it until it fades. It is to cleanse ourselves of the unpleasant sensations experienced in childhood.
Also practice to inhale, exhale deeply, count to eight and breathe again. repeat it several times and the unpleasant sensations begin to disappear.
I've had anxiety for the last couple of months. It started with Jaw pain and I'm always thinking about it. But when I'm busy i feel fine. Cut my 7 can a day cola's this past week to 1 or 2 a day. I'm always doing something to get my mind off the pain that really isn't there. My doc prescribed me 90 pills but i refuse to take them. I've taken 2 since i got them 2 months ago. I just deal with it. Hopefully I'll be myself again soon.
THANK YOU SO MUCH 🙏
I’m on SO MUCH psych medication, I’m depressed because I’m so empty, it’s where I live
Et ben, tu peux décider aujourd'hui de changer ta façon de voir les choses, ce sera déjà un bon début. Allez, tu vas réussir, et tu es capable.
I'm in college and I have serious anxiety to the point I feel lightheaded
I get the lightheaded feeling too it’s the worst
Dr i admire you 💗🙏

A very compassionate prospective, from a great Doc.
Thank you doctor
I’m following you and love your work. I’m curious about dental/oral hygiene implications for sleep, anxiety, etc. can you talk about dental/oral health impact on us?
Try cloves for dental health and also for lowering the blood sugar.
Hi, what do you mean? I'm curious, is there a link between anxiety and dental health/hygiene?
