I’m actually suffering from anxious and uncontrollable feelings that I can’t rlly explain this video has inspired me and helped me through so much and I am unbelievably grateful. Thank you for this video it ended in tears, and I hope you can help more people like me in the future. I think it has made me realise from now in I need to do one thing a day and it WILL make a huge difference
Thank you for this I rlly needed it ❤️❤️❤️
Dr Julie you have helped me a lot by telling me this advice I have most of what you have talked about thank you
Beautiful voice and pronunciation, relaxing, a pleasure to listen which opens the attention to the precious advices..beautiful, thanks!
Can I ask u something?
Most of the "simptoms" of lots of anxiety actually happends to me and i have lots of insecurities. But neither my family took them seriously or even listen cause they always judge me for everything. What should i do?
@@finlaygrainger9748 I feel u bro/sis It's horrible and i just have 15 years old
This applies to productivity as well, such as making the bed.
God damn it🤣
Yeah, but making the bed right as you get up, keeps the body heat trapped longer, and will probably make mites reproduce longer, and you can get a mite infestation, I never make my bed in the morning, and rarely at night, because of allergies and Eczema.
So true! Thanks
Great point.
@@StephanieMorelli I never said you had to make it right when you woke up 😂
Agreed!! When I was depressed, nothing was joyful, but I forced myself to do positive things for myself. And this was sending my brain a message: „look, somebody is taking care of you, you are worthy, you have value“
Do u have more tips
@@remembertosmile6281 Hi, you have a beautiful name, remember to smile! I focus on diet, exercise, and I challenge my mind by learning new things. I have a personal list of things that I do every day for only 10 minutes. (ofcourse there are days that I can't get it all done, but I always come back to my list). 10 minutes of working out, 10 minutes of learning a language, and so on. I am thinking long term instead of short term, while I reward myself for the healthy things I do with a positive thought. Even if its the tiniest little thing. For instance, I take my vitamin D and I think: "you're doing a good thing, this is going to protect your bones" this is positive thinking in practice. or I work out and I think: "you are now more fit than you were 10 minutes ago. you have a good blood flow in your body, more oxygen will reach your cells" so I appreciate the little things that I do, while imagining I am on a good path, and I've done a step on this path today. I started learning italian 2 years ago, and by just doing 10 minutes a day I understand a lot now and I watch an italian psychology channel. Learning new things and focusing on my health has given me a lot of joy and self confidence. And I am practicing to be grateful. It is looking at positive things in my life and nourish and maintain them. The relationship to my family or my hair. I am grateful for having healthy hair and maintain by drinking a spoon of pumpkin seed oil a day. Be grateful through action. And conscious positive thinking. When I started with my list, I did 5 minutes of positive thinking as a task. Do a good thing for yourself today and shine brighter than you did before. Much love to you!
what were the positive things that you did?
@@pennyjane9906
Thanks for posting, gonna try this list thing. Seems helpfull for my situation.
@@dasja9966 how is it going for you ?
This actually made me smile. And almost cry. I get it now.
To treat that
Check methylen blue drops for that, i thought she was putting medicine to water
Dr Julie. I'm well into most of my issues. The ones that reside are a matter of time. I just simply wanted to say if you deal with your patients like you do your videos, I find you fabulous. The rational and reasonable thought and tone of voice help more than most realize. Thank you
I wouldn’t see any therapist but I would see you. You seem so understanding ❤️ thank you for your vids
I had 18 sessions of nhs therapy i have seen 2 therapists, they both seem to be caring but i have heard they can be bad, but the only way to know is to try it.
Tbh the sessions did not help me, but I know personally therapy does help people.
Also if you suffer from anxiety, ocd, ptsd, maybe try asmr,emdr,cbt,nlp
Same here. Well said.
Hey! I am currently working on my masters to become a therapist. I actually had a bad experience with a therapist back when I was 16. Just not helpful at all and made me feel like therapists don’t help and just don’t work. I tried therapy again at the age of 20. Changed my entire life. Now I’m 23 and working towards becoming one myself. Just know that most therapists are like her, and myself, and my therapist. We truly care and want to help you in any way we can. If you ever feel the need for a therapist, I hope you give us a chance. You can always try out a therapist for one session, decide you don’t like them and move on to the next until you find the right one. We don’t take any offense to it and we want you to find the right match!
Go see a therapist, from my experience they're all like this
@@jesswinter sorry girl, didn’t mean it like that. I’m wishing you all the very best on that venture ❤️
I was just scrolling through the RUclips shorts after having a breakdown. I didn’t expect to encounter this video and now I am once again a crying mess. Your words really touched my heart because ever since the pandemic started, I lost motivation in life. Heck I don’t even find the thing I used to do enjoyable anymore. It’s like everything is pointless.
What she said in this video is very powerful, live the moment doing your best at that moment. In interactions with people we can find a lot of relief, it's very unhealthy to be isolated. It's also important to not make one thing too much important as if it's an idol that replaces God. A hobby is just a distraction, a job is just a way of living. People is what matters. I encourage you to read the gospels. Jesus is all that matters on our lives and his teachings are very powerful.
@Jk_jh_. How are you doing my friend?? I hope better 🙏🏼
@Fabio I must agree 110% with your post!!!!
Hope you are doing great. Bless you❤
I feel that way too. 😏hugs to you💖💖💖💖
Depression is a tough adversary, and there are several different types. I’m one of the lucky ones that can experience a moment of happiness in the middle of months of depression, and while it doesn’t happen often, those times are more important to me than most people realise. Battling depression for 45 years is exhausting and isolating.
Wow, 45 years is a very long time. I've been through almost 6 months feeling depressed, and it's already getting too difficult. Huge respect to you for enduring for so long. Stay strong!
@@midnighthunter1426 well the first half went undiagnosed - I just felt like I deserved to feel miserable. I got formally diagnosed in the year 2000, aged 40, and have been on anti-depressant medications ever since. It has been an interesting journey that I’d rather forget!
Right now, things seem to be falling apart, so it is an ongoing challenge. Thank you for your kind wishes - it really means a lot. I hope your own situation stabilises and starts to improve. Like any addiction (and depression is like an addiction), don’t do it alone, find family, friends or complete strangers across the globe who can offer support with no judgements. Be kind to yourself.
@@Xubono I'm grateful for your reply. Hope your situation gets better too. Wishing you all the best.
Talk to God Almighty. He loves to hear from His children. Tell Him how you feel and that you need His help. ❤
God Bless you Dear One...praying for Complete change, a Life changing Turnaround for you and Everyone on this chat suffering from depression..in Jesus' Christ's Name AMEN. Talk to The LORD,He will Answer 😊✝️🙏🕊️🗝️⛲🦅💪🙌❤️
I'm 16 and have had cancer and was obviously depressed for a long time, but I'm getting g there. Thanks to Dr Julie.
You really do have a gift of simplifying the thought process of handling the emotions for those of us wondering what’s going on or how to approach them. Thank you and I hope God continues to bless you.
I appreciate that!
You just helped me from falling back into depression after a week of feeling great about my life. Thank you for the illustration.
Woohoo keep going💖💖🤍💫 lots of love to you
Have you heard about the Gospel and God’s purpose for your life?
@@michaelaholmes8498 can you go preach somewhere else?
This is so beautiful and so true ....its not about the material things ....its about small moments of joy ,, hugging kids ...chatting to the old folks ,, going to church ...
The way you explain, it feels like counseling is an art! Drawing a picture of how you can make others live more beautiful and less miserable. ❤
Thanks. I’m still recovering from my last attempt. I’ve been working out, doing self care routines, learning the guitar, trying new games and trying things. I sometimes just wanna curl down into a ball and just… not live anymore. Life just sucks so badly but I know it gets better.
So sorry to hear this 🥺 Have you heard about the Gospel and God’s purpose for your life?
Never. Stop. Living. Keep on, and keep trying things, anything positive however small; keep trying to unlock doors - eventually something will open. Don't give up God. Even if you aren't a believer, He believes in you.
Ive heard that a lack of vitamin d causes depression. Go church hopping until you can find one you like. It helps to be around others, we just have to force ourselves sometimes. Stick to a routine.
I started crying almost within the first 10 seconds, so overwhelmed! Thank you for this.
I’m not lazy, i’m just glad watching my favourite tv show is bringing me joy again
Don’t know why but the Doc spells it out distinctly and she is awesomely empathetic and beautiful. Thank you
when you talked about the moments of joy and took out the spoon i was like "hehe comically large spoon"
😂😂😂😂
Now that's a spark of joy.
Thank you for your comment. It made me smile while I was feeling down! 🤗
@@AshBud13 im glad it made you happy
Lol. How im wondering if she used a happy face spatula. Or just started using random things to make us laugh
Although remember doing too much of something isn't good for you either, burn outs are very common during depression and is better to take a break from the activities that you find pleasurable
Soooo important! 😊
You described the thought process of depression perfectly. Nothing matters. Nothing will make a difference.
I adore how in all these videos, you use physical analogies while explaining so that there's a visual understanding of what you mean and makes the meaning so much more clearer than just saying it alone!
She helps me more then my actual therapist and physiologist
Saaaame!!!
I will try too.. thank you for letting us know.
For me, it's just too difficult to do anything and all I can do in that moment is breathe. While trying not to scream and just cry my eyes out.
I know how that feels going through the exact thing. Just breathe try doing something you like. It won’t happen in a day but keep pushing yourself everyday. Even for a few mins.
Try having medication with your doctor. IT helps a lot indeed.
What magic is real??
Remember, @Magic is real, one tiny weeny step at a time. It is hard to breathe easily and see hope and happiness right now, but try everyday to breathe a little more. Be aware of your breathing. Ask yourself, “If I was feeling ok, what would I do…? Write in a journal…
We only have one life and times goes fast… so try to try one breathe at a time, one little hopeful thought at a time…
This is another good talk on depression. It' s a constant uphill struggle. You just stop caring about anything to the point the walls could be crumbling down around you. No motivation. Ruminating during depression is just one negative thought after another . you absolutely do need pleasant things to do and think about.
As someone that has struggled with depression since being a child, this is one of the best pieces of information about this illness you can find. Thank you.
This was shown to me right here, right now, for a reason. I was scrolling trying to distract myself after sobbing about how I'm constantly bored yet too exhausted to do anything. No matter how often I go out, the second I get home and I lay on my bed everything is over. I just want to find a hobby that I can pick up where I left off, but I don't know where to start. After losing interest in all other things, I'm stuck in the grey area where I have almost nothing. Thank you for this.
I usually read, but I want to take beading back up, so that's a hobby I can recommend if you like finicky things.
I relate and I find happiness in Rubik's cubes
So sorry to hear this 🥺 Have you heard about the Gospel and God’s purpose for your life?
I wish I had an adult role model figure like you in my childhood
Have thought whats the point so many times in last 23 years of my life. Your talk changed my whole outlook in just a few seconds.
Best advice i heard 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you .
I have just started my journey to become an occupational therapist... hope to be a ray of hope like u are❤💜❤
All the best, your amazing ❤️
Ohhh my god❤
Sending loads of wishes and love 😍
I have purchased your book, which I have to say is absolutely amazing. I am a massive advocate of mental health having been diagnosed with complex PTSD a year ago. Having spent 20 years as a Police Officer, and mental health only starting to be taken seriously by the police force, or that's how it appears, Ihave recommended your book to a number of colleagues. Thank you for your work, and the amazing advice you provided both on line and in your book.
What book??????
@@yummycookie3429 mental health refinery!
It's not just finding those moments of joy it's avoiding those things that give you pain.
Often you don't know what's causing your pain or if you know what's causing it, it's not changeable so easy or can't be changed at all.
@@android22arc
Normally it's people that are causing you pain. The problem is when you think you can't do without these people or thinking everybody is like this and you don't deserve happiness. You've got to start somewhere.
That’s so simple, but so true, when I feel like giving up& crawling under my duvet, I go for a walk in the woods near me. What a difference it makes ❤🙏thank you
You're really helping me, it's 4 in the morning, I'm scrolling to fill time, thank you for a new perspective
I have to put this on a loop to keep repeating and hear every word carefully when the abyss of low mood nears.
That's why I keep watching your videos, every little happiness adds up. You are a true source of encouragement and happiness.
It gets lovelier and more relatable everytime.
God thank you so much someone like you has open a channel and spreading awareness God bless you
You are so welcome
I love her!!! She is such a beautiful, sweet soul!!
God she soothes my heart!! 🥺🥺💔❤
Thank you Doctor. This meant the world to me, I have lost interest on everything and felt no purpose, left my child with my husband at home and bought books for her yesterday found the joy in the little things, today I felt better and I’m teaching her after work which also made me happy, as you said, this is getting better already! Thanks!!
thank you for this. I’ve been feeling depressed and like life is pretty boring. I stoped doing all the things that brought me joy but i’m going to make time to try them again because maybe even if i don’t enjoy it rn i’ll start to love it again
I’m slowly bringing myself back onto my feet now that my life is changing drastically since I moved. I can’t express how happy I was when I was able to move to a new school, where over time I gained new friends and overall became a better, and happier person instead of feeling shut out by everyone like I felt at my old school. Because now that I moved, I no longer need to feel high anxiety to other people, I feel happier and I feel like I have a better purpose in life. I’m incredibly glad I moved, if I didn’t..I’m not too sure I would still be here.
I like her... the way she explains it helps me know my self just that little bit more
This made me cry..
I need to remember and remind this everyday everytime when I feeling have not point in life. Thank you!
You have changed my life ❤️ keep doing what you do your amazing
Thank you for saying this.
I love your words linked to your demonstrations… the non-physical linked to the physical… Thank you so much! 🙏⭐️
God I love the way you explain why I feel the way I do, stay blessed Julie you're the best🌻
I love this ! It just made smile.
I love how the background changes at the end, nice touch
Thank you, didn’t think anyone would spot that ☺️
@@DrJulie it's subtle, but it's cute :>
I had to rewatch after reading your comment
Best way "My Dr Julie" speak with Unconscious Directly❤
The bookshelf color changing was a nice touch honestly
Wow, that's why we need to choose to be happy. Thank you for that message.
Tysm.... Im having a heard time and u really helpd me...
I knew something is wrong with me since a very bad failed and broken friendship. Can't help bad people things happen no matter how hard you try to avoid. But your videos keep me going. I feel indebted to you. Thank you Dr. Julie❤
Love this. I’ve had depression on and off for years, but step by step I’ve turned my life around since March 2020, removed a toxic influence and broke free and living life as best as I can with chronic physical health issue
Faith over feelings is How one Overcomes🙏❤️
Yes ❤
Yep. this is me 😢. up and down like a roller coaster 🎢. part of my family don’t understand how i am when i’m low a mood 😢❤
Small moments to remember, and to look forward to kind of make it easier to be in the present.
I started crying midway through when you mentioned that the color of our lives begin to change after prioritizing the many little moments that give us joy. Thank you Dr. Julie ❤️
I needed to hear this…
Julie I'm proud to say that God changed my life around for me to the 360 in my life I'm so grateful and loving and caring for him that it's unbearable but that's the truth he changed my life dramatically change me overnight I'd say hallelujah Jesus name thank you God
Yeah depression cant be healed overnight. If you feel enough is enough and that you want to change your life, the best thing you can do is to slowly reintroduce joy and have gratitude.
Not really, fix your leaky gut, add nutrients and depression is gone almost overnight. Try it, nothing to lose... but sadness and despair.
@@gracegwozdz8185 go on…
I love the practical examples you show us to prove your point. Your work is amazing,Doctor Julie!
Exactly......currently I'm struggling with my mental health and no matter what I do......its like nothing is making me happy anymore.......
God is always saying to me that whether you think you fail or succeed in life only half of that is true, because sin comes with repercussion and it passed on sometimes to our children and so we face it all. Even so this helped me a lot and I thank God for bringing me here so I can hear this message and I hope someday I can earn enough to pay for my own therapy.
Thank you. I just prayed for help and I received an answer. ❤️
I was here in the comments 9 months ago,now I much feel better and happy,thank you again. I quit my stressful job,I was drained physically, emotionally and mentally...now I'm living my life better❤🇵🇭
Good leave what you make stress! AND FIND OUT NEW JOBS OR HOBBIES!
dr julie out here casually giving me goosebumps
This is a very powerful statement and needs to be told around the world.🥰
Ive been saying this for years. Momentum can really take hold and get you to a place where youre happier amd enjoying life, but if you stop even for a couple days, its so easy to backslide all the way to where you were
The way you're using YT shorts to present psychological concepts so innovatively is amazing. I personally have not seen anyone doing this yet. The way you creatively explain psychological concepts is great. God bless you for the work you're doing. Keep going!
That is a very optimistic and precise message. Thank you Dr. Julie
This is exactly the help I needed right now. I still feel bad, change takes time. But I got a perspective.
When i started celebrating the small amounts of moments of joy, happiness and other hobbies as well and work, i take it for granted and reminds me of st theresa saying "do small things with great joy" my everyday saying for me to keep me going
Thank you. 💗 Recently I have been feeling like there isn’t a point in trying to take good care of myself. I’m trying not to feel this way anymore.
I love how u explain things visually it's so effective and logical.
The lighting of the background changing was so cool!
Thats also how the unhappiness drips in, but agree to try not to give up is all we have.
This. I need to remember this everyday for the rest of my life.
So simple, but yet profound! Thank you! 💗
You help me a lot to realize things that are hidden away for reasons behind the emotions. I’m thankful and only wish I could have you as my psychologist 🌺
Gosh that is profoundly TRUE!!!! I love how you described it! Thank you 👍!!
How this literally came to my feed first thing in the morning when I just said that there’s nothing to look forward to in the next tomorrow and mornings really proves that there is a beautiful fate 🥺 thank you for this. I’ll try 💖💖
Thank you for this, I am doing better after being in a dark dark place for months. With that said I still don’t feel the joy I used to from my old hobbies and I was worried about it. I know I need to try and push my self to do them anyway.
I started to prioritize peace over happiness. Happiness is like sadness. Sometimes I feel it, sometimes I don't. Sometimes a situation makes me happy or sad, but it is not something that someone should chase daily.
I agree! Dr Julie you’re so right! I’ve been doing therapy weekly for 3 months and daily meditation & gratitude journal daily for 10 months and I’m now finally feeling the effects. I went back to dating and there are so flakey guys and I’m unaffected. I know my value and I don’t settle for less.
Hope you've come as a light to so many dealing with depression, BPD, etc. You kinda ooze serenity!
I do experience depression and this is so true.tiny moments help me move forward.
Dr Julie, your shorts keep me alive! I’m an recovering alcoholic! With the greatest of respect, I not sure if you could even pull me round! Please keep posting! X
I love your book, Dr Julie! I bought it for my partner and ended up reading it myself. Now I got another copy for a good friend of mine.. I don’t only read it, I take notes and keep coming back to them 📝
My mum is struggling with her mental health and your book helps me to give her tips how to overcome difficulties and helps us create meaningful conversations.
From messaging with her about daily troubles, we created a habit of sending daily 3 things that we are grateful for. Small changes with a big impact!
Thank you for explaining how the brain works and where feelings, fears and anxieties come from. Love, Tom 💛
That was a great clear, tangible example. Thank you.
I didn't realize how broken I am until I subscribed to your channel. I am fighting, I really am. Having the tools to get better and actually using them are easer said then done. I have been in "recovery" for 6 months now. Eating right, working out five days a week. 10k steps in a day. I feel good, not great or happy but I am stable and motivated so not hating myself is a start.
I practice this consistently, it does make my depression less debilitating
I'm really grateful that I found this video. Thanks a ton Dr. Julie 🙏
I'm always proud of getting up in the morning, taking a shower, going outside for a walk... Over time I found out that discipline is everything. Now I do every day something that scares me...
You explain it so clearly that it hurts to realize how numb I’ve been living, denying that I’m feeling empty, lonely and hopeless.
I am really thankful to you because just because of you i learned how to say no to someone
I really like this. Seeing it visually really makes an impact. Thanks Dr Julie 🙏
Thank you Dr. Julie! You are awesome.
Needed to hear this today. The "why bother" thinking is probably don't properly take care of myself either and not just doing pleasurable activities.
