the most terrible symptom of mine - intrusive EXISTENTIONAL thoughts, almost 24/7. I'm petrified of space, death, living life. Everything looks so strange, meaningless. I'm afraid my own existence. Is it normal during dpdr?
you prolly dont give a shit but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can watch all of the new movies on InstaFlixxer. I've been binge watching with my gf these days :)
Ive had anxiety for about 20 yrs,, i feel evvvvvverything,, headaches, hard to breathe, trying to catch that breathe, blurry vision, chest tightness, chest pains, knot in my throat. Everything that makes you feel like your gonna die where your standing. Currently experiencing health anxiety. Watching this video has given me so much hope🤞 My body is so ready to heal, im tired of always feeling like this. Thank you for sharing your video❤
I get that feeling of a knot in my throat. Then the intrusive thoughts start. Like what if it’s cancer? What if it’s scar tissue from previous surgery and it keeps growing and chokes me? lol stupid thoughts 😊
I want to cry watching this. Been going through the EXACT sensations right now. Thank you so much. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. I felt like my physical symptoms could not be anxiety until I watched this. Been battling this daily for 6 months. Brain fog has been intense and debilitating. I really appreciate you both.
@@ammelavesyooh hey am desparately stuck with the intrusive thoughts and state of damn unreality...i feel most of the time that i do not exist and am completely lost ..at that time only i remember activities of all mad person i have ever seen in my life that time i get multiple thoughts about them only about going crazy or the activities of crazy persons and feel that I have gone mad...it just gets me in a state of completion confusion......do you know someone who has gone through such type of stuff....are they intrusive thoughts only or something else... please give me a proper explanation on this...
For any Christians in the comments section, I highly recommend reading/or meditating on Isaiah 41:10: “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” This verse has helped me A LOT in reducing my anxiety lately. I hope it helps!
Anxiety itself feels like your foot is stuck in the railway, you are seeing the train whistling, at full speed coming your way. No one around you seems to notice, even if you explain they look at you concerned but they can't do anything about it. You can't run, you can't hide from it, and eventually the train runs you over. You are constantly scared of it happening again, you observe your surroundings constantly trying to avoid it from happening again, you wonder why no one can help you, why do they dismiss you with an "anxiety attack" diagnose and send you back to that suffering. To see people who have overcome this... It's been six years already of this misery, and I'm ready to fight it back. I don't want this to be the rest of my life. Thank you for doing these kind of videos, both of you for sharing your stories.
Well put, I’ve been struggling back and forth with this for 20 years. Keeps coming back from time to time. I’ve been struggling since the pandemic this time around. But still working full time with 3 kids, house etc. unfortunately Swedens healthcare is not what it used to be
I watched a 55min long video before my anxiety.. I only watch short videos after my first panic attack 3 months ago. This video, I kept watching and didn't realized it is finished. Her story is similar to me. I got too much calm after watching this video. Thank to both of you ❤️❤️ GOD will always help you because you are helping people ❤️❤️
@@Bowzerthecat I am fine.. I just want to let you know that you can fight anxiety by ignoring it.. live your life ignore the negative thoughts.. nothing is going wrong with you.. One advice I want to give you Get enough sleep.. Many anxiety problems are caused by lack of sleep.. As I get enough sleep daily I am getting normal.. Since a month I haven't got any panic attack.. Hope that it helps
I can resonate with this completely ! Went through this for 3 months before I realized what was going on !! Health anxiety for me , everything was checking the boxes ! You Aren’t alone out there folks ❤ we CAN do this
I have been very hopeless, I have been struggling with anxiety/agoraphobia since 1999. I can’t thank you both enough, for reigniting some hope and giving me some resources that I can look into now that wasn’t there when I started having real issues. I felt so alone, I am just so great full that people experiencing it now days have people like you to explain it where it makes sense and you don’t feel so alone.
I have been struggling since I was 11 years young in 1975-76. I’m 60 now and still struggling. May you be free of this nightmare (apparently certain people get this condition and learn not to run away which I have been doing for most of my life). God Bless you and your life ❤️🙏👣🎶
I’ve had mine since 2002. It’s been really up and down. I take three daily meds I’m not sure work instead of one that did , because it could be addictive. I really just want to live some for a good 5-10 years before it’s over. I pray meditating helps. Starting to think if you don’t fully believe in anything , much like a placebo, it won’t work… God bless you and your journey. Hopefully you find moments of happiness and peace.
Shaan, thank you so much. I’ve been following DARE and other acceptance programs.. they all come with ‘rules’ that felt confusing, and ultimately turned into a form of avoidance by going through the motions, but not actually accepting my current discomfort and pain. Since watching my first video of yours last week, I’ve already seen my biggest improvement. I have felt significantly more anxious at times, followed by the most beautiful moments of clarity and pure joy. Thank you for providing so much help for free. You make me want to go into therapy to help those with panic and anxiety. I’m not in full recovery yet, but I can see the light, and the light is beautiful.
Acceptance is the hardest thing in the world for me, always has been. It's like a cruel twist of fate that I'm in this state and the only way out is to accept and see it through. I've done it once 3 years ago, took about a year, and then it was like I learned nothing once I recovered. My body is coming back to me saying "no no no you didn't learn your lesson". For me it was bad mental habits and extreme alcohol abuse, drinking until I blacked out every single night for over 2 years and now I'm back in the thick of it. I'm on day 4 with no alcohol and this time it will stick, I'm treating my body and mind right from now on.
When she mentioned Claire Weeks I picked up my copy of Claire’s book and actually began to read it for the first time. WOAH. I’m only a couple of chapters in but already I just feel like SOMEONE GETS IT!! So motivating thank you both of you!
Also, the comment about people who are smart and creative who fall into the trap is so damn valid. Not to toot my own horn but I’m very creative and so many people I know who are creative are also incredibly creative.
@@vinylg3421 Most of it, I don't live alone currently but I have a lot of time alone and moved away from my parents where I was very reliant on them and I've never left my job no matter how bad it got. The fear or sadness creeps in all the time and sometimes consumes me but not like it did.
My story almost exactly with some minor different symptoms ... I’m on the path and have been having some set backs. It is very frustrating but this video gives me hope. I also realized that I had put a time line on my recovery which just causes more stress. Thanks for reminding me it’s not going to happen overnight and that the downs are part of it. I hope I can help others when this part of my journey is behind me. Thanks again!
Ordered the book just now. Your story is so inspiring- I cried listening to it because finally someone knows what I’m feeling and going through. You both are God sent. Thank u
I want to thank you for sharing a very personal experience and being so candid about your feelings/perceptions. Unfortunately I feel our community still views anxiety as something we CHOOSE which clearly is not the case. You are such an i spiration& i'm so glad you discovered all this at a young age. Kudos!!!😊
Very informative very helpful I've been struggling for over a month now.. Dizziness light-headed drunk feeling 24/7. Sensitivity to light. Was also sensitive to sound in the first 2 weeks.. Off and on nausea gas pain. Occasional lump in the throat is hard to swallow.. Headaches consistently neck pain muscle pain stiffness. Brain fog, insomnia for a while, major loss of concentration. Felt like I was having an anxiety attack 24 hours a day.. Amongst many other symptoms that would come and go.. pins needles tingling. Etc. etc. went down to the doctor rabbit hole for a month. 10 different doctors.. With all the same answers thankfully nothing is wrong with you, however whenever I would try to explain all of my symptoms they looked at me as if I were crazy.. I felt like I was going crazy. I truly felt like I was at the end of my rope and was going to die. I felt like I couldn't go out in public I couldn't go to grocery stores I didn't want to drive and so on. Due to the fear of what might happen.. Prior to this I was a health fanatic counted my calories on a daily basis sodium levels carb levels sugar levels etc check my blood pressure was always normal. Worked out 5 days a week. Etc.. during the anxiety my blood pressure skyrocketed my heart rate skyrocketed. Now I have to take blood pressure medication. Anyway this has been very helpful once again thank you. This has been very helpful and informative keep up the amazing work. You never realize how many other people are struggling along with you. I would never wish this upon anybody God bless you all...
These stories are so encouraging and inspiring - especially for those of us who dealt with health anxiety. Realizing you’re not unique or alone and that other people have dealt with the exact same things is so encouraging.
Hi Shaan, I’ve been dealing with this anxiety cycle for 2 months but now I would say I’m making huge progress now. I can’t thank you enough for your videos and how your content has really fast-tracked my recovery journey and saved me from so much unnecessary suffering. The turning point in my recovery journey was when I realized that I don’t have to RESPOND to my symptoms with FEAR (because once I stop fearing or ‘hating’ the symptoms, it’s very easy to accept them unconditionally). I hope this helps to those out there still struggling. Just trust the process and stay disciplined (trust me!! The AWARE process in Shaan’s book actually works. I actually was doubting it for some reason but I did it anyway and now I’m out of the cycle and know exactly what to do if I fall back into the cycle again). really y’all will get better for sure.
@@melissaquintero7201 yes, accept is just anxiety and nothing else, learn exercises or keep your mind busy There will be bad days but if you keep pushing you will get through it
@@abrahamhernandez1913 hello there thanks for the reply. Did you ever went through the phase we’re you felt sadness like you couldn’t control your emotions?
Shaan's Video and this interview of Kaylee inspired me so much. I've been through all of those symptoms and I've recovered. If after this vid you'll experience symptoms again, Remember: they are normal, YOU WILL BE BETTER. LIVE YOUR LIFE. ❤️
I‘m in my recovery and is exactly how she described it, I'm in a phase where I'm fine for two days, then I have symptoms again for two days, then I'm fine again for two days. but they are symptoms I can tolerate very well and all thanks to Dr. Claire's book and you Shaan! thank you ❤️
@@k-drama_kpop_fan i do have symptoms and it is actually same.. but it‘s tolerable but not completely gone.. i have only thoughts and adrenaline rush becausd of thoughts.. sometimes i‘m doing really great, but sometimes i cannot detach..
I love everything that was said . I had all the symptoms you could think of and I healed thank God , it took a lot of work . It does take a long time for your body to level out. I love positive information regarding anxiety. I owe a lot of my healing to a self help program called Attacking anxiety and depression, Back when my anxiety hit me hard core I was 19 I’m now 42 , there was no google or utube . The program saved me . For me the key to my healing was hearing other people’s success stories. Once I knew I could heal I worked hard to get through it . It is possible to have a good life . Please keep the positive information coming ❤️ I learned that staying on top of the positive outlook on anxiety has helped me to have very few set backs during my life time . always work on yourself. ❤️❤️
I’m so glad I joined ya fb group and I got help from another admin, finding this video has absolutely relived me for the time being. I can’t express how much I needed this omg. I love yas so much. Sent to family and making everyone understand what I’m going thru
This is me. Anxiety is torture :( Exhaustion, morning anxiety (nausea, feeling like crying, legs ache), DR, brain fog. At times I don't even want to be here anymore. Shaan. These video's are a blessing. Thank you.
This is so on point I feel like you are speaking a language that only some of us know. This woman should talk about this story it’s really well presented by her 💫
I cannot express my extreme gratitude for this video. I have been experiencing debilitating anxiety and panic after learning I have a 30% premature ventricual complex burden. I have been at rock bottom over the past week feeling there was no way out. When I started this video my head was pounding, palms sweaty, heart racing, having derealization to the nth degree and as I type this after watching the entire video, all of those symptoms have subsided and I feel very relaxed. Like you said, for people who dont know what this is like, this might not seem like a big deal, but its terrifying. You just offered me a way out that no doctor or therapist has ever given me. God bless both of you. Thank you for being willing to be vulnerable and share your stories. People like me wont forget what you have provided here. Also, I ordered the book Kaylee talked about 😊
What a blessing of a video. Every word you guys spoke resonated with me. I was crying the first 25 minutes of this video because what she experienced was almost exactly the things I’ve experienced and still am struggling with. This video has served as encouragement for me today and to continue to push through and recover. 🙏🏼❤️
Dr. Claire Weekes book Hope and Help for Your Nerves saved me in the 1980s. At that time we didn't have the internet and I didn't know what anxiety was until I stumbled upon her book in a bookstore. Her straight forward explanations and approach to treatment is as relevant today as it was back then. Face, accept, float, let time pass. Don't let the weird sensations frighten you. It's just anxiety playing its tricks on your body and mind. Your nerves are over sensitized. With acceptance, you can face the symptoms, float through it and let time pass to recover. It takes time but it works. Don't hesitate to get medical help while you are recovering. Medication doesnt mean you are weak. Why suffer?
The first part of what u are saying is correct but then u start talking about medication ?? Ask yourself this, are u accepting your anxiety if u take medication to get rid of it ??You obviously hasn’t understood shaans teachings at all. Takings medications to relieve anxiety is a temporary fix and when u stop medication the anxiety will come back. Taking medication means u are responding to your anxiety and telling it u don’t want to be there. What you need to do to get rid of anxiety for good is to just accept that you have anxiety and do absolutely nothing about it, just live your live as you would have before u got anxiety.
@@soren5621 shaan has said before that some people do good with short term meds. Some people need short term meds so they can relax and get their thoughts together so they can start their journey with recovery. Not everyone needs or should take meds but it's not bad if u have to long enough to find some relief until you can start to heal. And Claire weeks says the same exact thing.
Dr Claire weeks and shaan both say medication short term is not bad and some people need it! It's not good for long term but short term is perfectly fine for the people who need it. Some people need meds so they can calm their nerves long enough to realize what is happening to them. And nothing is wrong with that. After they have a short time to calm down then they can get into recovery and start to practice acceptance. Nothing wrong with needing meds for a short time
@@shainaroark3955 exactly. Sometimes the intrusive thoughts are so horrible and sometimes the only thing that will stop them are my medication. I’ve just started my journey of healing and I felt guilty at first relying on that but my physician said I’ve been through hell the past decade between losing my son and divorce and remarrying as well as a job loss. Then after having a hysterectomy during recovery is when my heart rate went sky high and began my panic attacks. Now if I feel my heart speeding up I get a panic attack. Yes I believe acceptance AND my low dose medication are necessary. Definitely
I have come back to this video... AGAIN. Third time of getting in the groove of anxiety induced physical symptoms. Thank you again for making this. My brain fog has been debilitating and scary. Really wants to make me think something serious is happening to me.
Beautiful lady and talks beautifully. Really knows her stuff. I think she needs to start her own youtube channel for helping people. She is a natural teacher. Im in the midst of anxiety at the moment. I agree with her assesment of doctors not being very helpful. Her story is a lot like mine, though i am not yet fully recovered I got the most knowledge/help from the claire weekes books, paul david books and wonderbro's videos on youtube and now ive found shaan, his videos also. I am doing a lot better than i was, still have the dp/dr symptoms. But ill get there👍
This interview helped me tremendously! It has been the second video I watched off your channel. I started balling crying because I felt like I wasn’t alone in this journey. She had so many similar symptoms as me. Thank you both in being vulnerable and sharing your stories. I read the book and looked it up on RUclips and you popped up. Thank you thank you thank you 🙏 much love to you two beautiful souls 💕 I’m already feeling better after hearing both of your journeys.
The 'I accepted anxiety' but not my symptoms. It's just so true. Like I keep watching the videos and tell myself yeah I accepted what it is but then I keep coming back for answers every time my heart feels a certain way, I come back trying to find a trick or something to manage that bad feeling, hoping it can make anxiety go away by tomorrow
I’m going through anxiety right now & I feel like I’m drowning in it 😓 I sometimes feel like my heart is hurting me then I feel the sensation going up to my head , I have lots of headaches , start to feel dizzy , feel lost & feel nervous I feel like I forget stuff sometimes & for everything I get scared . I just wanna be better 😓
Don't fight accept everything. Feelings, thoughts and symptoms. When we're in fight or flight mode, we have a lot of negative thoughts. Stop arguing with thoughts. accept them and let them pass. I'm currently in recovery myself and it takes time to retrain the brain, so it quits firing adrenaline and other chemicals that give us these symptoms. Worrying about your symptoms also is considered second fear that Claire Weeks talks about.
Kaylee thanks so much for sharing your story. I have anxiety and panic disorder and your story just bought tears to my eyes. I do believe that I will recover completely but so many people tell me that it is impossible and I refuse to accept that.
Thank you for sharing Kaylee (and Shaan). I've been struggling so much with this. My story is also very similar, I never had any physical symptoms or intrusive thoughts like this before either. I had my first attack on a plane during a storm. It has been absolute hell for a year. I have been reading Dr. Weekes book as well and I cant tell you how helpful it is to hear you talk about your desensitization journey. Its incredibly difficult and I really wasn't sure if it was worth all of the suffering. You've given me the courage to keep sticking to it. So happy for your recovery. Stay strong!!
I’m a classic case of health anxiety. This is going to help. Same journey with tons of doctors saying take this and take that. This going to change my life. ❤
Such an inspiring story. Thank you Kaylee for sharing your story with us, i'm suffering from it too right now, i'm seeing an psychologist every week , yes you are right i don't think it much helping me. I had a panic attack when i was in driving too, it's terrible experience and it lasts 3hrs before i get better. I will try and get that book. Thank you Shaan also
this is an amazing story , i am going thro the same thing , been going thro this for 2+ yrs now , just ordered the book from Amazon . ty & much respect 🙏🙏
I wonder if we can contact google to have them recommend this video to the sufferers out there because when I was in denial I was really struggling with all the misleading videos coming from the search engine. And .. hey Kaylee you have me crying all the way 💕 I love you
@@mahrukhkhan9297 I’m a lot better now than I was 11 months ago. I am able to manage my anxiety a lot better. I got therapy help and listened to a lot of anxiety podcasts.
Hope can be so fleeting w/ panic disorder, we need to be kind to ourselves,we love others unconditionally,so now it's our turn to embrace and love ourselves
This is a great video explaining anxiety and thanks for sharing your stories. I still have wished for anxiety to be completely gone from my life, just like everyone wishes it would. It doesn't have to stay like we've heard from many success stories. I appreciate that you mentioned that there can be setbacks... you may go months or longer managing anxiety, but then something in our life can trigger that stress response and then hear comes the anxiety trying to settle in. I've tried to accept and say "here it is again" and state the facts that I've been here before and know the process. I noticed my brain can be so hyperfocused on physical symptoms. It's so hard to get out of our brain and it really becomes obsessive. I am so stuck on the fear, physical symptoms again and obsessive thinking. I'm trying to believe myself that it's just anxiety again, but Ive noticed the fight between my rational and irrational brain. Sometimes, the irrational speaks louder. Ugh. I guess it always does while in the situation until it has passed.
Day four of getting back on anxiety medication, and it really is a BUGGER. It does help eventually, and has in the past so I am sticking out the course.
@@byebyepanic Thank you. So far I’m able to go out, drive, shop. I just have light sleep (hypervigilance) and derialization and occasional panics during sleep.
WOW. Kaylee your story is so similar to mine asides from the panic attacks. I wake up everyday in a major FOG everything feels hazy, and it just feels like im in a disconnected dream.im so confused etc i hate these symptoms. ive gone to the ER like 8 times this year and they just keep saying its anxiety but dont get to the root of the problem.
My therapist has told me though that absolutely it does not go away overnight but that one day I will get up and say “Wow…what happened!” That I might not notice the gradual progress and so always asks my family for their feedback.
Wow!!! Thank you so much for sharing your story, I have been going through her EXACT symptoms since July 2021! I have seen so many specialist, therapy, even prescribed glasses for my vision problems! It all started with a panic attack and I have felt no hope since last year, it truly is debilitating! I just ordered this book and I'm ready to recover, ready to be the mom I was, the partner and friend. I'm done crying begging god for an answer! This video has given me so much hope! Also a coincidence we have the same name! Lol thank you both SOOOO MUCH!!!! I hope I can comment in a few months and say I'm recovering!
I've been struggling with SEVERE physical pains from anxiety for about a year now. I've really felt so alone for so long.. I've stopped seeing most of my friends because I don't want to tell them why I'm not myself lately. This Video might be the first thing I've ever seen to compare my situation to. So thank you!! I'm really hoping I can beat this soon.
U r not alone , I have severe unexplainable symptoms. It's real hard . No one understands, it never goes away , I feel like I might have a multiple series of diseases and that this is how life is now
I’ve had the exact symptoms. Went to five different ERs in one month. My first panic attack started when my heart rate raced up over 180 bpm. You know the fight or flight feeling? Mine was a paralyzing fear. I literally called the ambulance because I stiffened up to the point I was terrified to move. The ER doctor told me I was just gonna have to “deal”. It felt like nobody was sympathetic and eventually they said it was all in my mind. I saw a cardiologist. I saw a gastro doctor because it seemed that when these attacks would happen my stomach would be upset or when my stomach was upset it would cause my heart rate to go up. It was a cycle. Then came the internet searches. They made me more scared. Then I researched all these anxiety meds they wanted me to go on. The side effects said may cause suicidal thoughts. Greeeat… I decided against those. But the racing thoughts and higher heart rates are what get to me. I felt invincible when I was young. I have a wonderful primary care doc now. She sits and listens. But truly your videos have helped me tremendously. This girls experience spoke to me. Thank u guys for caring. It’s so important to get the word out there.
Omg! So inspirational ! I have been dealing with anxiety attack regular.Within 6 weeks i lost my 2 brother ....😢My family we all had about 12 deaths in our family.
I had the weird vision and the brain fog symptoms also, thought I had a tumor and dementia . I’m happy to know it’s just anxiety. It’s been a year and my vision is barely getting back to baseline.
Before anxiety pills this is exactly what I’ve been going through everyday, you said it all my dear. I got them all. I’m still going through anxiety with heart palpitations .
I’m going through the same thing right now. I’ve high blood pressure, anxiety and heart palpitations, it’s a daily struggle. I’ve gone to three different cardiologist and two of them have told me my heart is fine. I’m on two different medications because my heart rate was so fast. I’ve been to the ER countless times. It’s just been a mess. The palpitations drive me insane! In two weeks I see my new Cardiologist where I will have echocardiogram and renal sonogram performed to check my heart and kidneys. I’m sure my results will come back fine but I’m still anxious. I’m trying to work through this but it’s hard.
I totally understand you! Palpitations are so debilitating! I suffer from anxiety for 7 years with ups and down. But won’t give up! Good days are coming!
This video is so very helpful. It’s so important to hear people share their similar experiences. Recovery is absolutely possible, thank you for vocalizing that. For anyone reading this, know that you are safe in your body even though it may not feel like it. Even though I’m in the recovery process I know I will get better and you will too 🤍
Along with the attitude of acceptance start with the desensitisation process, learn to control your reaction to your thoughts, this will allow your mind to calm/desensitise enough to put the rest in to practice, it's a great starting point, it's these very thoughts that are keeping you in the loop and keeping the cycle going, just let them be 🙌
Great recovery story; I am on a recovery journey myself and this really helps. Question: when you trying to recover does your other lifetime situations that cause anxiety like managing kids; going thru minimal (like simple day to day simple arguments) stressful situations with your partner challenge the recovery ?
Thank you 🙏🏽 I’ve been having those physical symptoms for 2 months straight since the moment I wake up. I’ve been on so many medication and it doesn’t help.

Man, this girl legit articulated what I'm going through so freaking well. Wow.
Anxiety itself feels like your foot is stuck in the railway, you are seeing the train whistling, at full speed coming your way. No one around you seems to notice, even if you explain they look at you concerned but they can't do anything about it. You can't run, you can't hide from it, and eventually the train runs you over. You are constantly scared of it happening again, you observe your surroundings constantly trying to avoid it from happening again, you wonder why no one can help you, why do they dismiss you with an "anxiety attack" diagnose and send you back to that suffering. To see people who have overcome this... It's been six years already of this misery, and I'm ready to fight it back. I don't want this to be the rest of my life. Thank you for doing these kind of videos, both of you for sharing your stories.
Well put, I’ve been struggling back and forth with this for 20 years. Keeps coming back from time to time. I’ve been struggling since the pandemic this time around. But still working full time with 3 kids, house etc. unfortunately Swedens healthcare is not what it used to be
I watched a 55min long video before my anxiety.. I only watch short videos after my first panic attack 3 months ago. This video, I kept watching and didn't realized it is finished. Her story is similar to me. I got too much calm after watching this video. Thank to both of you ❤️❤️
GOD will always help you because you are helping people ❤️❤️
How are you now?
@@Bowzerthecat I am fine.. I just want to let you know that you can fight anxiety by ignoring it.. live your life ignore the negative thoughts.. nothing is going wrong with you.. One advice I want to give you Get enough sleep.. Many anxiety problems are caused by lack of sleep.. As I get enough sleep daily I am getting normal.. Since a month I haven't got any panic attack.. Hope that it helps
I can resonate with this completely ! Went through this for 3 months before I realized what was going on !! Health anxiety for me , everything was checking the boxes ! You Aren’t alone out there folks ❤ we CAN do this
The anxiety story we needed to hear! Proud of Kayley for sharing her story and reclaiming her own mind!
very good interview! You let people talk instead of constantly interrupting like most people.
I have been very hopeless, I have been struggling with anxiety/agoraphobia since 1999. I can’t thank you both enough, for reigniting some hope and giving me some resources that I can look into now that wasn’t there when I started having real issues. I felt so alone, I am just so great full that people experiencing it now days have people like you to explain it where it makes sense and you don’t feel so alone.
I have been struggling since I was 11 years young in 1975-76. I’m 60 now and still struggling. May you be free of this nightmare (apparently certain people get this condition and learn not to run away which I have been doing for most of my life). God Bless you and your life ❤️🙏👣🎶
I’ve had mine since 2002. It’s been really up and down. I take three daily meds I’m not sure work instead of one that did , because it could be addictive. I really just want to live some for a good 5-10 years before it’s over. I pray meditating helps. Starting to think if you don’t fully believe in anything , much like a placebo, it won’t work… God bless you and your journey. Hopefully you find moments of happiness and peace.
A lot of therapists wouldn't be in jobs if they told you this approach, sad but true 💰 Im so grateful to have found bye bye panic & Dare.
Shaan, thank you so much. I’ve been following DARE and other acceptance programs.. they all come with ‘rules’ that felt confusing, and ultimately turned into a form of avoidance by going through the motions, but not actually accepting my current discomfort and pain. Since watching my first video of yours last week, I’ve already seen my biggest improvement. I have felt significantly more anxious at times, followed by the most beautiful moments of clarity and pure joy. Thank you for providing so much help for free. You make me want to go into therapy to help those with panic and anxiety. I’m not in full recovery yet, but I can see the light, and the light is beautiful.
Acceptance is the hardest thing in the world for me, always has been. It's like a cruel twist of fate that I'm in this state and the only way out is to accept and see it through. I've done it once 3 years ago, took about a year, and then it was like I learned nothing once I recovered. My body is coming back to me saying "no no no you didn't learn your lesson". For me it was bad mental habits and extreme alcohol abuse, drinking until I blacked out every single night for over 2 years and now I'm back in the thick of it. I'm on day 4 with no alcohol and this time it will stick, I'm treating my body and mind right from now on.
When she mentioned Claire Weeks I picked up my copy of Claire’s book and actually began to read it for the first time. WOAH. I’m only a couple of chapters in but already I just feel like SOMEONE GETS IT!! So motivating thank you both of you!
Also, the comment about people who are smart and creative who fall into the trap is so damn valid. Not to toot my own horn but I’m very creative and so many people I know who are creative are also incredibly creative.
How’s your anxiety now?
How’s ur anxiety now
Dr Claire Weekes saved my life.
@@philipkolyos8230 did you fully recovered?
It's videos like this that make me excited for when I recover and can look back and try to help others with my own story!
How is the journey going
@@tboneizi1843 progressing, im on the dpdr stage but its getting easier slowly, but i havent had a major panic attack in four months
@@CookieVibes thank you cookie
@@CookieVibes do you have your confidence back? To go out , live alone and hold a job? Do you feel the fear or sadness creeping back in sometime ?
@@vinylg3421 Most of it, I don't live alone currently but I have a lot of time alone and moved away from my parents where I was very reliant on them and I've never left my job no matter how bad it got. The fear or sadness creeps in all the time and sometimes consumes me but not like it did.
Proud to call this girl my friend💕 you’re such an inspiration!
she’s so strong, helps me :)
Jennifer does she have a RUclips or Instagram page
My story almost exactly with some minor different symptoms ... I’m on the path and have been having some set backs. It is very frustrating but this video gives me hope. I also realized that I had put a time line on my recovery which just causes more stress. Thanks for reminding me it’s not going to happen overnight and that the downs are part of it. I hope I can help others when this part of my journey is behind me. Thanks again!
And how are you today? Because i had a big set back right now my 1st one as i thought i was getting well
Ordered the book just now. Your story is so inspiring- I cried listening to it because finally someone knows what I’m feeling and going through. You both are God sent. Thank u
I want to thank you for sharing a very personal experience and being so candid about your feelings/perceptions. Unfortunately I feel our community still views anxiety as something we CHOOSE which clearly is not the case. You are such an i spiration& i'm so glad you discovered all this at a young age. Kudos!!!😊
Very informative very helpful I've been struggling for over a month now.. Dizziness light-headed drunk feeling 24/7. Sensitivity to light. Was also sensitive to sound in the first 2 weeks.. Off and on nausea gas pain. Occasional lump in the throat is hard to swallow.. Headaches consistently neck pain muscle pain stiffness. Brain fog, insomnia for a while, major loss of concentration. Felt like I was having an anxiety attack 24 hours a day.. Amongst many other symptoms that would come and go.. pins needles tingling. Etc. etc. went down to the doctor rabbit hole for a month. 10 different doctors.. With all the same answers thankfully nothing is wrong with you, however whenever I would try to explain all of my symptoms they looked at me as if I were crazy.. I felt like I was going crazy. I truly felt like I was at the end of my rope and was going to die. I felt like I couldn't go out in public I couldn't go to grocery stores I didn't want to drive and so on. Due to the fear of what might happen.. Prior to this I was a health fanatic counted my calories on a daily basis sodium levels carb levels sugar levels etc check my blood pressure was always normal. Worked out 5 days a week. Etc.. during the anxiety my blood pressure skyrocketed my heart rate skyrocketed. Now I have to take blood pressure medication. Anyway this has been very helpful once again thank you. This has been very helpful and informative keep up the amazing work. You never realize how many other people are struggling along with you. I would never wish this upon anybody God bless you all...
Same with me. It's miserable 😢
@@jaylenetennier6105 ty for the response..
How are you now
These stories are so encouraging and inspiring - especially for those of us who dealt with health anxiety. Realizing you’re not unique or alone and that other people have dealt with the exact same things is so encouraging.
This is so inspiring knowing she got back to normal!
These experiences and advice are invaluable to people like me who are suffering anxiety and panic attacks
She is very genuine,the only time she lies is when she said she is a great driver
😂😂
Hi Shaan, I’ve been dealing with this anxiety cycle for 2 months but now I would say I’m making huge progress now. I can’t thank you enough for your videos and how your content has really fast-tracked my recovery journey and saved me from so much unnecessary suffering.
The turning point in my recovery journey was when I realized that I don’t have to RESPOND to my symptoms with FEAR (because once I stop fearing or ‘hating’ the symptoms, it’s very easy to accept them unconditionally). I hope this helps to those out there still struggling.
Just trust the process and stay disciplined (trust me!! The AWARE process in Shaan’s book actually works. I actually was doubting it for some reason but I did it anyway and now I’m out of the cycle and know exactly what to do if I fall back into the cycle again). really y’all will get better for sure.
@Dutta Arjun please advice on how to accept how to we accept the symptoms? If we feel a symptom what would you do just ignore it?
@@melissaquintero7201 yes, accept is just anxiety and nothing else, learn exercises or keep your mind busy
There will be bad days but if you keep pushing you will get through it
@@abrahamhernandez1913 hello there thanks for the reply. Did you ever went through the phase we’re you felt sadness like you couldn’t control your emotions?
@@melissaquintero7201 mmmmm not like that but I been more angry, alot of angst
Just negative about myself and everything
@@melissaquintero7201 it could be depression?! Have you been to a doctor or psychologist or therapist
Shaan's Video and this interview of Kaylee inspired me so much. I've been through all of those symptoms and I've recovered. If after this vid you'll experience symptoms again, Remember: they are normal, YOU WILL BE BETTER. LIVE YOUR LIFE. ❤️
Thank you sm! I will be better too
I‘m in my recovery and is exactly how she described it, I'm in a phase where I'm fine for two days, then I have symptoms again for two days, then I'm fine again for two days. but they are symptoms I can tolerate very well and all thanks to Dr. Claire's book and you Shaan! thank you ❤️
I hope your recovery is going well. Can you please share the name of the book?
How are you now dear
Thank you for sharing, I hope you are doing well
@@k-drama_kpop_fan i do have symptoms and it is actually same.. but it‘s tolerable but not completely gone.. i have only thoughts and adrenaline rush becausd of thoughts.. sometimes i‘m doing really great, but sometimes i cannot detach..
Such an amazing success story from such a beautiful person. This was so inspiring to watch!
Are u going through anxiety ?
I love everything that was said . I had all the symptoms you could think of and I healed thank God , it took a lot of work . It does take a long time for your body to level out. I love positive information regarding anxiety. I owe a lot of my healing to a self help program called Attacking anxiety and depression, Back when my anxiety hit me hard core I was 19 I’m now 42 , there was no google or utube . The program saved me . For me the key to my healing was hearing other people’s success stories. Once I knew I could heal I worked hard to get through it . It is possible to have a good life . Please keep the positive information coming ❤️ I learned that staying on top of the positive outlook on anxiety has helped me to have very few set backs during my life time . always work on yourself. ❤️❤️
@leeanna rodriguez can you explain what techniques they used for recovery?
@Alafasy3are you still ok
I’m in tears listening to her story! I am so excited , I ordered the book last week when Shaan recommended it and it is supposed to arrive tomorrow!
I’m half way through my book. How has it been for you
MrSeven07 K it truly helped, I’ve read it twice so far
@Ayush Yadav hope and help for your nerves
What’s the book called
Hi , may i know wat book is it. Thank you
This channel deserves way more subscribers 👏
I’m so glad I joined ya fb group and I got help from another admin, finding this video has absolutely relived me for the time being. I can’t express how much I needed this omg. I love yas so much. Sent to family and making everyone understand what I’m going thru
This is me. Anxiety is torture :( Exhaustion, morning anxiety (nausea, feeling like crying, legs ache), DR, brain fog. At times I don't even want to be here anymore. Shaan. These video's are a blessing. Thank you.
3 years later this is still so powerful! I relate to the part about headaches, thats the biggest struggle for me atm
This is so on point I feel like you are speaking a language that only some of us know.
This woman should talk about this story it’s really well presented by her 💫
Every time I get symptoms, I always watch this video and it helps me so much thank you 😊
I cannot express my extreme gratitude for this video. I have been experiencing debilitating anxiety and panic after learning I have a 30% premature ventricual complex burden. I have been at rock bottom over the past week feeling there was no way out. When I started this video my head was pounding, palms sweaty, heart racing, having derealization to the nth degree and as I type this after watching the entire video, all of those symptoms have subsided and I feel very relaxed. Like you said, for people who dont know what this is like, this might not seem like a big deal, but its terrifying. You just offered me a way out that no doctor or therapist has ever given me. God bless both of you. Thank you for being willing to be vulnerable and share your stories. People like me wont forget what you have provided here. Also, I ordered the book Kaylee talked about 😊
What a blessing of a video. Every word you guys spoke resonated with me. I was crying the first 25 minutes of this video because what she experienced was almost exactly the things I’ve experienced and still am struggling with. This video has served as encouragement for me today and to continue to push through and recover. 🙏🏼❤️
Hi Nicole do you relate with this video?
Dr. Claire Weekes book Hope and Help for Your Nerves saved me in the 1980s. At that time we didn't have the internet and I didn't know what anxiety was until I stumbled upon her book in a bookstore. Her straight forward explanations and approach to treatment is as relevant today as it was back then. Face, accept, float, let time pass. Don't let the weird sensations frighten you. It's just anxiety playing its tricks on your body and mind. Your nerves are over sensitized. With acceptance, you can face the symptoms, float through it and let time pass to recover. It takes time but it works. Don't hesitate to get medical help while you are recovering. Medication doesnt mean you are weak. Why suffer?
The first part of what u are saying is correct but then u start talking about medication ?? Ask yourself this, are u accepting your anxiety if u take medication to get rid of it ??You obviously hasn’t understood shaans teachings at all. Takings medications to relieve anxiety is a temporary fix and when u stop medication the anxiety will come back. Taking medication means u are responding to your anxiety and telling it u don’t want to be there. What you need to do to get rid of anxiety for good is to just accept that you have anxiety and do absolutely nothing about it, just live your live as you would have before u got anxiety.
@@soren5621 shaan has said before that some people do good with short term meds. Some people need short term meds so they can relax and get their thoughts together so they can start their journey with recovery. Not everyone needs or should take meds but it's not bad if u have to long enough to find some relief until you can start to heal. And Claire weeks says the same exact thing.
Dr Claire weeks and shaan both say medication short term is not bad and some people need it! It's not good for long term but short term is perfectly fine for the people who need it. Some people need meds so they can calm their nerves long enough to realize what is happening to them. And nothing is wrong with that. After they have a short time to calm down then they can get into recovery and start to practice acceptance. Nothing wrong with needing meds for a short time
@@shainaroark3955 exactly. Sometimes the intrusive thoughts are so horrible and sometimes the only thing that will stop them are my medication. I’ve just started my journey of healing and I felt guilty at first relying on that but my physician said I’ve been through hell the past decade between losing my son and divorce and remarrying as well as a job loss. Then after having a hysterectomy during recovery is when my heart rate went sky high and began my panic attacks. Now if I feel my heart speeding up I get a panic attack. Yes I believe acceptance AND my low dose medication are necessary. Definitely
This interview gives me hope. I just ordered the book she talks about. Thank you 🙏
I'm struggling with the same and this video in simple words was like a virtual hug to me
So glad I found your channel!!
I have come back to this video... AGAIN. Third time of getting in the groove of anxiety induced physical symptoms. Thank you again for making this. My brain fog has been debilitating and scary. Really wants to make me think something serious is happening to me.
You’re going to be okay. I promise. You ARE okay❤️
Beautiful lady and talks beautifully. Really knows her stuff. I think she needs to start her own youtube channel for helping people. She is a natural teacher. Im in the midst of anxiety at the moment. I agree with her assesment of doctors not being very helpful. Her story is a lot like mine, though i am not yet fully recovered I got the most knowledge/help from the claire weekes books, paul david books and wonderbro's videos on youtube and now ive found shaan, his videos also. I am doing a lot better than i was, still have the dp/dr symptoms. But ill get there👍
Doctors are trained by big pharma so their only answer is a pill which isn't the answer.
This inspired me so much it's incredible I wish I had access to anxiety specific therapist who also experienced anxiety and specialises in it.
I’m crying watching this 😞 she gives me soo much hope 🙏🏽
This video is SO helpful !!! 🙂 I absolutely see myself in her story! Thank you both!!!
My symptoms already got better by just watching this!!!
Glad it helped!
This interview helped me tremendously! It has been the second video I watched off your channel. I started balling crying because I felt like I wasn’t alone in this journey. She had so many similar symptoms as me. Thank you both in being vulnerable and sharing your stories. I read the book and looked it up on RUclips and you popped up. Thank you thank you thank you 🙏 much love to you two beautiful souls 💕 I’m already feeling better after hearing both of your journeys.
Wow such a powerful story. I am dealing with the sane exact symptoms and normal labs. Smh its such a bummer. But we can all push through. Love this❤
The 'I accepted anxiety' but not my symptoms. It's just so true. Like I keep watching the videos and tell myself yeah I accepted what it is but then I keep coming back for answers every time my heart feels a certain way, I come back trying to find a trick or something to manage that bad feeling, hoping it can make anxiety go away by tomorrow
Thank you so much for sharing this video this is what am experiencing right but after watching this video i have got my confident 😊
I’m going through anxiety right now & I feel like I’m drowning in it 😓 I sometimes feel like my heart is hurting me then I feel the sensation going up to my head , I have lots of headaches , start to feel dizzy , feel lost & feel nervous I feel like I forget stuff sometimes & for everything I get scared . I just wanna be better 😓
Thanks so much for sharing! Recovery seems sometimes so hard to reach but stories like these keep the hope !
Been going through this for the last 5 years gotta keep fighting wish me luck!!
Hope this helps
Don't fight accept everything. Feelings, thoughts and symptoms. When we're in fight or flight mode, we have a lot of negative thoughts. Stop arguing with thoughts. accept them and let them pass. I'm currently in recovery myself and it takes time to retrain the brain, so it quits firing adrenaline and other chemicals that give us these symptoms. Worrying about your symptoms also is considered second fear that Claire Weeks talks about.
I feel much happier knowing that i have to axcept i have anxiety like THANK U SO MUCH i cant explain how much glad i am❤️❤️
Wow ! so nice to know that I have to accept i have anxiety truly terrible .
Kaylee thanks so much for sharing your story. I have anxiety and panic disorder and your story just bought tears to my eyes. I do believe that I will recover completely but so many people tell me that it is impossible and I refuse to accept that.
And how are you today? Im recently started on july 12 now have health anxiety with intense symptoms it scares me ...
@@denise.delilah6953 how are you now?
@@denise.delilah6953 how are you now
Thank you for sharing Kaylee (and Shaan). I've been struggling so much with this. My story is also very similar, I never had any physical symptoms or intrusive thoughts like this before either. I had my first attack on a plane during a storm. It has been absolute hell for a year. I have been reading Dr. Weekes book as well and I cant tell you how helpful it is to hear you talk about your desensitization journey. Its incredibly difficult and I really wasn't sure if it was worth all of the suffering. You've given me the courage to keep sticking to it. So happy for your recovery. Stay strong!!
You too!
How r u right now?
Recovered??
That was a great video. Thank you very much again. I now have HOPE. May God bless you and yours always.
Wow kaylee I wished you were my coach you made me really feel at ease more than my therapist ! I can really relate to everything you said !
I’m a classic case of health anxiety. This is going to help. Same journey with tons of doctors saying take this and take that. This going to change my life. ❤
Such an inspiring story. Thank you Kaylee for sharing your story with us, i'm suffering from it too right now, i'm seeing an psychologist every week , yes you are right i don't think it much helping me. I had a panic attack when i was in driving too, it's terrible experience and it lasts 3hrs before i get better. I will try and get that book. Thank you Shaan also

@@mahrukhkhan9297 I’m a lot better now than I was 11 months ago. I am able to manage my anxiety a lot better. I got therapy help and listened to a lot of anxiety podcasts.
Hope can be so fleeting w/ panic disorder, we need to be kind to ourselves,we love others unconditionally,so now it's our turn to embrace and love ourselves
OK Kaylee, you literally just described me. Love this story
This is a great video explaining anxiety and thanks for sharing your stories. I still have wished for anxiety to be completely gone from my life, just like everyone wishes it would. It doesn't have to stay like we've heard from many success stories. I appreciate that you mentioned that there can be setbacks... you may go months or longer managing anxiety, but then something in our life can trigger that stress response and then hear comes the anxiety trying to settle in. I've tried to accept and say "here it is again" and state the facts that I've been here before and know the process. I noticed my brain can be so hyperfocused on physical symptoms. It's so hard to get out of our brain and it really becomes obsessive. I am so stuck on the fear, physical symptoms again and obsessive thinking. I'm trying to believe myself that it's just anxiety again, but Ive noticed the fight between my rational and irrational brain. Sometimes, the irrational speaks louder. Ugh. I guess it always does while in the situation until it has passed.
She is so beautiful❤. And her relaxed calm voice settled me down.
Day four of getting back on anxiety medication, and it really is a BUGGER. It does help eventually, and has in the past so I am sticking out the course.
This girl knows her stuff!!! My brother overcame his anxiety & panic attacks through exposure as well. I’m still in recovery…
She’s great! Hope you overcome soon as well :)

How's your recovery going?
All the vision problems and dizziness has convinced me I’m going to go blind! That’s my biggest fear right now that I’m trying to work through
Is your vission fuzzy? Like stuff seems jumpy?
WOW. Kaylee your story is so similar to mine asides from the panic attacks. I wake up everyday in a major FOG everything feels hazy, and it just feels like im in a disconnected dream.im so confused etc i hate these symptoms. ive gone to the ER like 8 times this year and they just keep saying its anxiety but dont get to the root of the problem.
How are you now?
Like your vission is hazzy? Like static?
My therapist has told me though that absolutely it does not go away overnight but that one day I will get up and say “Wow…what happened!” That I might not notice the gradual progress and so always asks my family for their feedback.
So wild to see people who have only been dealing with this for less than a year actually beat it. I’m 23 years in now. Good for them
What are your symptoms me to with fybromyalgia symptoms
Off all the videos i watched and the books i read nothing helped as this video of this girl. I wish my thanks would arrive to her
Wow!!! Thank you so much for sharing your story, I have been going through her EXACT symptoms since July 2021! I have seen so many specialist, therapy, even prescribed glasses for my vision problems! It all started with a panic attack and I have felt no hope since last year, it truly is debilitating! I just ordered this book and I'm ready to recover, ready to be the mom I was, the partner and friend. I'm done crying begging god for an answer! This video has given me so much hope! Also a coincidence we have the same name! Lol thank you both SOOOO MUCH!!!! I hope I can comment in a few months and say I'm recovering!
Looking forward to that.. I'm super glad my videos are giving value. Keep me posted! :) Goodluck!
I've been struggling with SEVERE physical pains from anxiety for about a year now. I've really felt so alone for so long.. I've stopped seeing most of my friends because I don't want to tell them why I'm not myself lately. This Video might be the first thing I've ever seen to compare my situation to. So thank you!! I'm really hoping I can beat this soon.
U r not alone , I have severe unexplainable symptoms. It's real hard . No one understands, it never goes away , I feel like I might have a multiple series of diseases and that this is how life is now
@@mysteryamidst2812 how are you feeling now?
@@itsjen94 okaish I guess
I've got physical pain shoulder 24/7 5 years leg tingling heal pain deal sick but not everyday with that
What are your symptoms mine is muscle pain
I’ve had the exact symptoms. Went to five different ERs in one month. My first panic attack started when my heart rate raced up over 180 bpm. You know the fight or flight feeling? Mine was a paralyzing fear. I literally called the ambulance because I stiffened up to the point I was terrified to move. The ER doctor told me I was just gonna have to “deal”. It felt like nobody was sympathetic and eventually they said it was all in my mind. I saw a cardiologist. I saw a gastro doctor because it seemed that when these attacks would happen my stomach would be upset or when my stomach was upset it would cause my heart rate to go up. It was a cycle. Then came the internet searches. They made me more scared. Then I researched all these anxiety meds they wanted me to go on. The side effects said may cause suicidal thoughts. Greeeat… I decided against those. But the racing thoughts and higher heart rates are what get to me. I felt invincible when I was young. I have a wonderful primary care doc now. She sits and listens. But truly your videos have helped me tremendously. This girls experience spoke to me. Thank u guys for caring. It’s so important to get the word out there.
Omg! So inspirational ! I have been dealing with anxiety attack regular.Within 6 weeks i lost my 2 brother ....😢My family we all had about 12 deaths in our family.
Thank you so much i feel soo comfort and im not alone
I had the weird vision and the brain fog symptoms also, thought I had a tumor and dementia . I’m happy to know it’s just anxiety. It’s been a year and my vision is barely getting back to baseline.
Shaan I'm honoured to be born on the day you started your recovery 🥺✨ it's crazy because mind also started on the same day and it was my birthday :)
Before anxiety pills this is exactly what I’ve been going through everyday, you said it all my dear. I got them all. I’m still going through anxiety with heart palpitations .
I’m going through the same thing right now. I’ve high blood pressure, anxiety and heart palpitations, it’s a daily struggle. I’ve gone to three different cardiologist and two of them have told me my heart is fine. I’m on two different medications because my heart rate was so fast. I’ve been to the ER countless times. It’s just been a mess. The palpitations drive me insane! In two weeks I see my new Cardiologist where I will have echocardiogram and renal sonogram performed to check my heart and kidneys. I’m sure my results will come back fine but I’m still anxious. I’m trying to work through this but it’s hard.
I totally understand you! Palpitations are so debilitating! I suffer from anxiety for 7 years with ups and down. But won’t give up! Good days are coming!
@@felyi0 how are you now ?
I went skydiving and I have severe anxiety and panic lmaoooo !Anything is possible lol
This video is so very helpful. It’s so important to hear people share their similar experiences. Recovery is absolutely possible, thank you for vocalizing that. For anyone reading this, know that you are safe in your body even though it may not feel like it. Even though I’m in the recovery process I know I will get better and you will too 🤍
Beautiful story really , thank you both. God bless
Thanks for this. 2 heros right there. ❤
I needed to hear this. 🙏
Along with the attitude of acceptance start with the desensitisation process, learn to control your reaction to your thoughts, this will allow your mind to calm/desensitise enough to put the rest in to practice, it's a great starting point, it's these very thoughts that are keeping you in the loop and keeping the cycle going, just let them be 🙌
@Mick Little did you recovered from anxiety?
You're my man. Shaaun. Thanks for everything. Very helpful if i get a talk with you .
Thank you so much I believe this will help me,I have been having this serious anxiety for a month now,
how are you now?
Yes how are you now?
Wow seeing this video in year 2024 and very helpful. Thank you both 🫶🏽
Thank you for sharing your story ❤💯🙌
i have exactly the symptoms she had and more!!!!! im trying my hardest to get better, I am chronically ill with anxiety and it's killing my life.
How are you now
Are u recovering yet?
Don’t worry, no ones anxiety is chronically. Follow shaans advice and you will be fine.
This was an awesome interview. She was very informative and inspiring
Great recovery story; I am on a recovery journey myself and this really helps. Question: when you trying to recover does your other lifetime situations that cause anxiety like managing kids; going thru minimal (like simple day to day simple arguments) stressful situations with your partner challenge the recovery ?
Trust the process and be patient. Your body wants to heal....
Amazing story great video shaan
Thank you 🙏🏽 I’ve been having those physical symptoms for 2 months straight since the moment I wake up. I’ve been on so many medication and it doesn’t help.
