I struggled with really bad anxiety in my early 20’s, that was about 15 years ago. It took 3 dr visits for them to tell me I had anxiety disorder. I didn’t even know what anxiety meant at the time. I just knew my body was shutting down. I thought my panic attacks were heart attacks. My vision got blurry, my ears were ringing, my speech was slurring, I broke out, horrible insomnia and I was always sweating.It was horrible. I refused to take medicine. Instead, something in me told me to change my diet. I stoped all caffeine, sugar, and fried foods. Nobody gave me this advice, no phones at the time and I didn’t have internet. I stArted eating healthier, and I did a lot of self -love activities. I put myself first for everything. I made goals for everyday. These goals were simple things that could look forward to. For example, I would say, “OK, tomorrow I can look forward to picking up my little cousin and taking her to the movies.” Or “tomorrow I’m going to take a long hot bath.” Or “tomorrow I’m looking forward to buying that new blouse I’ve been wanting.” Etc. I would force myself to go to the gym and I did acupuncture. My acupuncture session included a massage. I would look forward to acupuncture too. These little things really helped me. I wish I would’ve known about journaling. Thank you for this. Now my anxiety is very low for the most part. I just followed my intuition. :) looking back, in very proud of my young self for being so good to myself and following my intuition and listening to my body.
I really appreciate you sharing this. You followed your body and healed!
How was the sweating thing? I dont understand what's up with me but I feel like I probably started having anxiety and I sweat excessively :(
Wow, it's amazing what you have done for yourself, I will do the same, thx ❤️
Wow you were amazing to do that at such a young age. I am so struggling with anxiety, I didn’t really believe that food would make such a difference, e.g. sugar and processed , I eat healthy but also eat sugar and a lot of bread. I am seriously going to try and cut out sugar. I am just so scared where I am going at the moment I feel like I am going mad 😥
Do you feel weak?
To you reading this right now... you are beautiful. Everything will work itself out. You ARE not alone in this! Everyone here knows how you feel right now. This feeling sucks, but know that you will be be ok. This too shall pass...Don’t fight the anxiety, just allow it to work it’s way through. Just let it do it’s thing. It will leave on its own. I’m right here with you right now. We’re gonna do this together. This won’t stay long. It’s on its way out now. Just Embrace the moment as you become at peace with things. You are shedding this off as we speak. Now I want you to close your eyes and place your hands in front of you and lightly wiggle your fingers like you’re playing a piano. Feel it melt off yourself. Feel it drip off your fingertips...See, there it goes......we love you . Daffodils, sunshine, blue skies, refreshing peace. Breathe out. You are loved....Heavy eyelids, drift away, ahhhhhhh, light fluffy thoughts. There you go, you got this. (I’m still here with you) Now sleep. Stay at rest. Shhhhhh....Breathe out. At peace... at peace.... at peace... at peace....🙏🏻🌼🍀☀️✨🌼🍀🌼🍀🐣🌼🍀☀️✨🙏🏻. Now, if you need to, quietly and softly go back and SLOWLY read this again.
Dr Nicole, your RUclips videos are reaching similar levels of clarity to your Instagram posts. You are a great communicator and I truly appreciate your generosity. Thanks again.
Hi Juwon! I really appreciate this. Thanks so much for watching.
Two very big tools are missing from these steps - physical exercise and connecting with nature
@Junder R not necessarily.
@Junder R Meditation brings you closer to your true self. With its techniques, it helps you harmonize with nature. Peace is your true nature and meditation leads to inner peace. ... Connecting with the essence of yourself and the surrounding nature is remedy.
I think she’s probably said it in a different video. These are just 5 different ways. She’s said on her Instagram A LOT that movement heals. 🤙🏻 She also mentions cold showers and stuff like that. Good to point out tho in case people have forgot. ✌🏻
For me your right.
I think movement/physical exercise is essential for trauma release to get the stuck energy out and with Depression . For anxiety , we need to practice stillness n grounding. This is what I think based on her Instagram posts.
Sugar is honestly a big one. My doctor told me to stay away from caffeine which helped a little but she never said anything about sugar. Years later, I found out online that reducing sugar can help anxiety. Cut out all processed sugar and allowed myself to only gave fruit first thing in the morning and honestly cannot believe how stable I felt after 2 weeks. That being said, it is hard! Sugar is so delicious.
Excellent video.
I used to suffer with severe anxiety and I healed myself naturally through everything you’ve mentioned.
One other thing to avoid is dairy ! It’s highly inflammatory. The key here is to reduce inflammation. Eat an anti inflammatory diet. So so important.
I spend 8 years at home, i have a pretty bad avoidant personality. I was constantly finding excuses to remove myself from social life, i stopped my studies, work, i was barely seing my friends, still living with my mom. I couldnt even think of going to a psychologist i truly thought everything was fine with me and that i was just lazy, i just needed to push myself. But the few times i pushed myself went horribly wrong, so i slowly got depressed. In 2014 and 2015 i almost didnt get out at all. I discovered your videos a few months ago, when i was looking for people with the same problems as me. I started feeling so much pain in my body 3 years ago due to the fact that i was barely moving at all and eating pretty badly. So i started exercising and eating clean. I started meditation in the beginning of september, at first i really didnt like it, it felt like a waste of time and i just couldnt focus at all. But thats exactly why you should keep meditating! Its been a month now, and this had the most powerful effect on my bad thoughts. It is just so amazing. I was trying so hard to stop the flow of catastrophic thoughts i had since i was a child. Everytime i was asked to do something simple, like going to the cinema with my best friends, my brain was creating a million excuses to make me run away like my life depended on it. Now with meditation i learned (in such a short amount of time!!) to train my brain to stop telling me all the time to run away from normal situations. Also when i am alone now i dont constantly panic about my future and my life anymore. I finally learned to live in the present. I am so happy i made this step in my life. Ive been going outside regularly since 3 months and i hope to keep doing like that. I am so thankful for this channel and your work, thank you so much. Now i will also try those other points i didnt do yet, to keep healing myself. :)
Hi Madison. Would you mind telling me what, if anything, did you use to help you meditate? I keep hearing good things about meditation but do tend to struggle to stick with it. I will give it another shot but if you have anything specific you could share that'd be awesome. Wonderfully positive post from you, by the way. I did enjoy reading it and I wish you continued success.
Try Dr Joe dispenza meditations
@@bonhomiegal omg i'm so sorry i'm seeing your comment only now ! :( I am using an app called Headspace, you have to pay to use it (12.90euro/month if i remember well) but it's not so much to get better, in my opinion. (you can try it for free for 30 days i think) Maybe they are others that are free out there but i never tried. I can just confirm that this app has changed my life for the best. I'm still using it, but not as often as before. It explains very well what to do, you can meditates on different topics, and the one that helped me get out of home without panicking was "self esteem". It's really a learning process and a routine to get used to but once you got it your life improve so much. I hope that, if you try it, it will work for you :)
@@cold1992 Hi Madison. Thanks for the reply and no worries. It happens in the world of binary:).
Yes I am familiar with Headspace. I actually had to laugh a bit when I read your reply because I had that App on my phone for ages now. But when the free period expired I have not really bothered with it again (which is a bit of a shame, seeing how much it’s helped you - still amazing by the way!). It was interesting to me what you said about routines. It’s so true. I have found something similar myself with other things and giving oneself enough time to let things work. Anyway, I’ve decided to give Headspace another go and have just re-subscribed. Thanks again and all the best. :)
How were you eating during all those years !!! Wow you most be an angel from God ....God bless you !!!! I hope you already recovered from anxiety !!!!! Childhood trauma has affected so many lives in this universe!!! Stay awy from toxic and Pessimistic folks .....
Thank you for talking about the connection between nutrition and gut health - such an important piece that so many people are not aware of!
I heal my anxiety through deep breaths, nature appreciation, better nutrition and finding a new hobby which is art/junk journaling - it makes me so relaxed and happy!
That's exactly how I have healed my anxiety and panic attacks -obviously I did researches on my own because the opinions of the doctors didn't convince me, simply taking drugs didn't seem to me the right path. The first thing I changed was my diet and then I introduced meditation and little goals to achieve every day: my life had already changed that way. Then with breathwork and journaling my life has improved even more, I have started changing my limiting beliefs and working on my future self!
I really appreciate your job, keep it up!
Hi Rita! Thanks so much for sharing this. Staying committed to all of these things an really heal anxiety.
Quitting caffeine and alcohol has been the most life-changing decision when comes to overcoming chronic anxiety. Now it is 80-90% less intense. Anyone reading this - QUIT CAFFEINE and see your level of anxiety drop dramatically!!!!
Edit: May work for most, not all, people. Because of course, almost nothing works uniformly for all people.
I 100% agree with you!!! This is not talked about enough, if at all. I honestly think most people don't even have anxiety, they just have a caffeine sensitivity!
For me quitting beer/booze was key.....and less coffee helps.
I agree, caffeine alcohol smoke drugs everything is shit. Cheers mate.
Honestly stopping caffeine changed my life! It made me so nervous, unable to actually concentrate, irritable and I used to metabolize it really slowly so I had terrible insomnia too. Ever since I stopped it, I feel like a new person
And here I thought that coffee and wine is good for anxiety, thx for the tip I appreciate it ❤️
Sleep helps me reduce my anxiety so much! It is a super powerful tool. Even taking a nap during the day when feeling anxious is so helpful☺️
The nutrition point is so important. I am so glad you’ve talked about it. Fried food, coffee, alcool take me to a place of uncomfort and bring me anxiety. Thank you for your words ✨
The future journaling work sounds like an excellent idea!! Thank you. I also need to do a lot of body work as in turning up the music and dancing all the energy out of my body and doing yoga like stretching moves such as shoulder rolls and neck rolls, etc, to get in my happy bubble before I go outside into the world containing people 😝 It really changes my energy so I can naturally be in flow and joy and be embodied enough, and people notice, too! It is interesting the reactions of people from when we’re giving off anxiety or giving off inner joy 💗💗
South Asian families in England especially those with low education levels tend to not even recognise anxiety as a serious issue. It's like struggling with double anxiety. I've suffered with class inequality at university in England as I was the first UK born in my family to experience the HE system. I was defined as unsuccessful by extended family because I studied sociology. It's been hard at home, in the Indian community and also dealing with inequality at university. I have to watch self help videos almost every day and my siblings think that by acknowledging it and reading about any mental health symptom makes it worse. I believe differently. These videos actually help me take one day at a time. Thank you
If you havent already, i recommend reading Dr Clare weekes’s books on anxiety. Her books have been a huge help in reducing my anxiety. Wishing you a great health :)
I found that exercises is another big one. For me, working out works wonders🏋️
Anxiety from my perpective cause by Child hood trauma !!!! Honestly speaking !!!!
I cut sugar,dairy and gluten 15 months ago.I am also doing intermitent fasting for 15 months now.Recently, I have decided to become more active,meditate and fix my circadian rhytm.I still deal with a lot of anxiety,but It is somewhat bareable.Hope I will get rid of it
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've experienced anxiety, racing/overwhelming thoughts of pending doom; mostly of me having some serious health (heart and/or gut) problems and panic attacks that sent me to the ER because of a string of back to back heart palpitations. I have been a care taker for my mom and that has affected me in many ways, stress-wise. I just found this video tonight and after I finish this comment I'm going to watch the videos you have linked. Again, thank you for your compassion and willingness to share your insights.
Great tips. I'd also add avoid toxic people and situations. My anxiety has decreased so much since I've done just that.
Hi Dr. Nicole, I just wanted to say that I really really love your videos! They’re brief, easy to digest, informative, and genuine. I also love that the action points are spelled out, making it that much simpler to execute on them. Thank you so much for putting these out there!
This makes me feel very empowered about trying to focus on what's good for my true self over mind chatter/addiction to trying to make things feel right... thank you, and I've just started future-self journaling too!
I'm glad this is empowering! Stick with future-self journaling. It's really helped me a lot.
Amazing! I was just like you have known about meditation for years along with breath-work, it wasn’t until a few months ago that I used journaling and breath-work together. Today I am stronger than ever and am going to take your advice to use all of these things together. I’ve seen improvements in my self control in the last few weeks and this is just going to sky rocket me to the next level. Thank you so much, Dr. Nicole! 💚
You are a great communicator, when you speak it makes so much sense and easily flows. I love these videos btw. I have severe panic disorder and do not currently have the money to be able to get help so I am very greatful you are sharing your information with the world. Thank you🙏
For sleep ASMR has changed my life! Thank you so much for your videos you’ve helped me a lot.
I fill the gap for point #2 and #3! I provide guided meditations, especially to manage anxiety! Thanks for making this video and providing all of your work Dr. Nicole. Your work has changed my life.
Thank you for your time and invaluable videos. I recently completed a 26 week Dialectical Behaviour Therapy course In the UK for depression and anxiety (30 years worth), and have learnt more from your videos in the space of a few hours than I did during the entire course.
Those who have a lived experience, rather than purely academic knowledge, of mental health issues are the greatest teachers, as is evidenced by your good self. So glad I found someone who genuinely and authentically "gets it". Namaste.
This is so well said, and I love the way you share really valuable and simplistic tips to deal with anxiety. So needed and appreciated! Thank you :)
I needed this explanation. My anxiety is sometimes a monster, due to so many factors. Being in my head and not sleeping enough being the main two. I've researched most of the topics mentioned before, and this video has given me a better guide to operate with. THANKS SO MUCH
You, have helped me more regarding understanding traumas, and trying to overcome them,..than I have with over 20 years of therapy 💗. THANK YOU 💗
Oh my God; I have been listening to you only two days and you are 100% spot on. Thank you.
I love this❣️💛 tysm🤗❤️
Dear Dr Nicole,
Thank you so much for this video and everything that you do. I don’t think you know how much of an impact you have in my life and that of so many people.. love you loads!!
Great video and the work that you do.
I think another avenue to explore is the awareness of when the anxiety starts in life. I remember as a young kid taking Sudafed for allergies not realizing how nervous it made me. Also a traumatic event can disrupt your nervous system as well. I was involved in serious accident around 16 and since that event I haven't been the same. With your help I am getting better, kudos to you 😊
Thank you so much. I’ve always had anxiety but lately it has gotten so horrible and I don’t want to have to take medications. I am feeling really hopeful after this video that I will be able to heal from within.
Wonderful video! 🙌🏼 Such sage advice of lifestyle changes that work individually and in tandem with each other. It’s amazing how small and simple strategies can lead to lifelong benefits! 🙌🏼
Thank you so much for all that you do!!! You share such invaluable information here & on instagram . Very grateful. Currently struggling with chronic anxiety/ stress and insomnia, alot to do with work stress.... your information is helping guide me to self heal. Thanks. 💕🙂
I find movement very important too to release stress, as well as quitting coffee and alcohol💜
Dr. Nicole,
Until I saw your content I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with my psychology degree (I will be graduating next year from undergrad). And to a degree I am still unsure. But I would love to do something similar to this; educating the public and helping people free themselves from negative patterns and thoughts. How did you come to this career and what tools did you use to get to where you are? I am a bit afraid of graduate school since I am not the most academically skilled person but I'm not sure how much of an impact I can have without a higher education. Either way, I just wanted to express appreciation for your work both for everyone who watches your videos and for yourself, since uncovering layers to who we are is maybe the ultimate challenge in life. Thanks for everything you've done, and I hope to someday get to work or speak with you in person.
Marcos
The one year I did hard core keto diet was the best year of my life. I started eating sugar again.... everything fell apart.
Really great video thanks! As a Naturopath, i love hearing you talk about the importance of Holistic nutrition! Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
Dr Nicole, thank you so much for these videos! They are helping me identify issues that I didn't have the tools to name, before. My anxiety has gotten so terrible that I take an over the counter sleep aid. If Im "worked up" enough, sometimes that won't even help! It's a frustrating cycle. But Im going to keep trying (to heal myself) & work my issues out! Thanx💛
Who thumbs down this lady!!! Shes amazing
Will be implementing. I have THE hardest time focusing. It’s so hard for me to listen to conversations and follow them, even watching this video was hard. Had to keep backing it up. Smh. My ability to stay in my head is too much. The anxiety is never ending,
I seem to get racing thoughts when I wake up, either in the middle of the night to go to the toilet or when I wake in a morning. Sometimes it feels like my mind has not shut down the whole night, instead it's just playing out on loop as I 'sleep'. I never feel well rested or refreshed when I wake. Anyone recognise this? Thank you for such great content. xxx
watch "personal mastery quest" videos on self inquiry. Sunny sharma has helped me so much with this..... no disrespect at all to Dr Nicole.
Also, look into L Theanine.
@@kobalt77 Thank you will check it out.
I get that at times. A little meditation before bed can help the mind to process and let go some of those thoughts.
@@kobalt77 Thank you! I'll check it out. I have tarted meditation and breath work and both are really helping :)
Thank you so much these videos are so educational and helpful!
Hugely grateful for your usual generous and informative content. 😘💜✨
You inspire me!! This is great. You are great. Thank you.
What a wonderful talk, thank you so much Dr. Nicole. You have a lovely presentation style, I learned a lot from this and even felt calmer just watching it. I have subscribed too, and look forward to watching your other videos. Thank you so much for sharing this great information with us.
You're a gift and generous thank you so much grateful for your help 🙏🙏💚
Add to your good list - imagery... When I had a burn out with panic attacks and high anxiety I intuitively carried out the things on your list but added Marti Rossman's CD for anxiety. Very helpful. Plus a lovely naturopath helped too....
Hello, new to your videos so I've been spending time with you every morning to catch up. I stumbled on your videos because I was looking to change my "avoider" mind-set. I've always practiced 90/10 rule with my eating habits and discovered years ago that sugar negatively affected my brain, gave my son night terrors and activated my others son eczema. Caffeine was also a big one! I've very careful not to eat certain foods to close to bed time because it hugely affects my sleep. And significantly limit alcohol consumption since it converts to sugar. Exercise has been important to me but there have been things you discuss here that I wasn't doing and have now put into practice. Once a month I set a new goal to change a habit. I outline the goal with the future-self-journal with positive comments and affirmation. Every morning, I look at my new self, and the one new habit that I want to change, every night I look again (in the journal) and I write the positive things that I did for the day to have me achieve the new self. I feel good about the progress. Meditation - even for just the minute in the morning and at night have really helped me become aware of my triggers. Breath work has been helpful, as I become anxious or frustrated about something I simply concentrate on my breath work and remind myself that I can get through this moment as my future self. Thank you for your work and weekly videos. They are helping me to achieve the next level in my growth - I've been stuck and some what unwilling to change the "ego" that wants to protect the child.
Thank you so much for this video! This topic resonates with me 100% and that's why my Depersonalization hasn't fully gone away. I need to practice the tips you have laid out in this video
I also have issues with depersonalization. I'm so glad this is helpful for you-it's helped me a lot
Nutrition is so important. I notice many people claim to eat right, but they may not know what that really means. Or they are using toxic products in their home that cause more anxiety. Thank you for sharing this :)
Thank you for all your hard work ❤️
This was so helpful! Thankyou so so much 🖤
I strongly believe that my hypothyroidism evolved into something else that my endocrinologist couldn’t detect because he was stuck on his cookie cutter approach to my treatment. My step mother found many symptoms that were the same across the board amongst hypothyroidism, menopause, and anxiety disorder. I’m much too young for menopause. I double checked with my GYN to make sure there wasn’t anything premature happening. Long story longer, other recommended doctors wanted to put me on everything from antidepressants to benzodiazepines. Most of these “medicines “ put me in the ER, and I was convinced I was having some sort of medical emergency 🚨
I am excited to watch to your meditation video, because I also deal with transient insomnia and an negative overactive imagination. Thank you for sharing this information.
Thank you for sharing this :)
love your videos amazing work thank you for this .
Love the advice. I do all of those practices other than the journaling. Just an FYI, although an unpleasant experience that involves purging (vomiting) Kambo is amazing for releasing trauma and healing anxiety 🐸
Thank you so much for this video. I felt so uneasy after eating a 12 ounce steak and i started overthinking everything after and I noticed an anxiety feeling was rising up so much i have never felt this intense feeling before so i did research and saw this video. It helped so much, thank you especially for the breathing technique. I will stay away from these kind of foods. Drinking water as well really helped.
Thank you for the information. I’m going to take notes. My medication is not working that much anymore.
Thank you. This is amazing.
Love this video!!! ❤️
Thanks for this , I feel way calmer
Amazing video thank you ❤️
Love your work !!!
I wasn’t super strict on my diet when I was at my best but I did eat very healthy and juiced a lot and I would workout everyday. Now that my anxiety is at an all time high I realize it’s lack a sleep, meditation, and breath work im going to incorporate this into my daily routine and stick to it.
Love the yellow overlay ❤
i find your story realling inspiring Nicole. i get veryy Loving and compassionate vibe from you. kindly make video on your life story, what struggle s u faced how and what helped u on your journey
So agree with point number 1. Sugar is SO bad for me...and gluten and processed food...in that order. I couldn't agree more! I love the brain / gut connection that you are talking about! I believe!!! Would LOVE to learn more about this!
Sleep I'm good with. Usually...unless anxiety wakes me up at 2:30 or 4:30 :) To that end, I will concentrate on 2, 3 ,4 :)
Thank you! Excited to see more! I've dealt with anxiety, depression and panic attacks. I am mostly healed and when a rare attack resurfaces, it usually has a physical manifestation.
Homeopathic Histaminum saved me! I'm going to go find that meditation video! :) And the future self journal video...
THANK YOU!
I have major depression, anxiety and Cptsd. I started seeing a good psychologist who talked me into seeing a psychiatrist which pills I do not agree with taking every day. I told them this. I do not want my body adjusted to pills especially heavy drugs like they want me on no way. When I tell them what I believe will work they do not listen, so in turn I turn to drinking to help my anxiety and I don’t know any other way. I’m just way to messed up inside. I cannot see or even guess where to begin and seeing my psychologist makes everything so confusing, the client doctor relationship really messes me up .
Also I have a special hoodie I wear when I feel anxious and depressed, it has a horse on it and it makes me feel so happy in an instant. My hoodie has been more beneficial than any drug but not 100 percent effective. Thanks for your input. I’m really going to work on your diet tips. Seriously. Thank you. I wished my psychologist would focus more on tips like yours . She’s really good. I cannot speak ill of her I’m amazed by how smart she is it’s that dang pill pushing psychiatrist, I’m never going to take his pills
Thank you for making this content for people like us. My psy has been on vacation for two weeks and it has been so hard . It’s literally my favorite day
🎉🎉 the power we hold to heal ourselves - always learning 👏
Hi! Nice to see you over this way! ;)
Just continuing to move into fear of being seen, you know?! Let’s do this... 🙃
Great video Nicole, thank you so much. I believe, we should ALWAYS breathe through our nose. Nose breathing creates Nitric Oxide which triggers a ton of beneficial processes in the body. Check out the videos of Dr Patrick McKeown and also Buteyko breathing.
thank you for making these videos :)
Thank you for this video
Great content. Thank you.
Thx Dr. Nicole, found you looking up tapping. New subscriber 😀
Dear Nicole, have you heard about EFT/EMDR or ReMovement (Tapping)? ReMovement is a simple form of Tapping by Daniel Boeger. ReMovement is: tapping lightly the outer sides of the hamstrings alternately with the flat hand until the breath becomes deeper and the whole system calms down.
Yes Meditation is useful to help many illnesses!!!!
For the nutrition aspect, it might be better to encourage adding things to your diet rather than restricting anything. For example, pro and pre biotics have a lot of promising research coming out about their work in the GI tract. Increasing fiber, limiting (not eliminating) ADDED sugar (not all sugar), and limiting (not eliminating) saturated fat are all great tips too. As long as a certain food doesn't diasagree with you, there's really no need to completely restrict it from your diet. As we say in the dietetics world, all foods can fit!
I love it, as usual very good and understandable. …. thank you so much
Thanks buddy!
Great videos. Thank you
Thanks 😁
Thank you
I'm unable to find the videos you mention in this video. Could you, please, link them here. Thanks you!
Dr.Nicole, what do you recommend for someone who has difficulty falling asleep? This is a constant struggle for me and I know sleep is so important but I’m not able to fall asleep until 5/6am (then I wake up around 7am). Do you have any suggestions?
Well spoken Miss....i like you already even though i have never met you before ....
.
Hi Dr Nicole, I absolutely love you and love what you do for others, and this video made me feel just relieved. Something that I want to ask, is how to not self criticize when one forgets to do these things or "cheats" in a way, for example if I were to eat something highly fatty, I dont want to make myself feel bad for eating it and furthermore give myself anxiety because of that. Because I often make myself feel bad because I know I couldve done better or differently. What advice do you have when it comes to that ?
Ever since I was experiencing anxiety I have bad acid reflux at this point is silent reflux, can anyone help
Dr. Nicole, I LOVE YOU😂💕 you seriously are THE BEST! Sending lots of love your way. Thank you for all you do💕. Could you maybe also do a Video about OCD's?
I love you! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch! More videos to come
Thank u!
i had a social anxiety like if i am talking to any strangers my body will be like vibrating and moving like cant stop moving and i think was that was my ptsd because i was an anti social i don’t like many people i just don’t feel ok with that due to what i was when i was a child i was always getting fun by my related like my bloodline and i was angry i don’t even getting a friend to them now and they think i have a mental disorder but i just don’t want to remember everything that happened before to us
i just want to be alone but every of my aunts saying i cant live like this but i just wanna be free of my anxiety if only i had enough money maybe im going far far away to my country just to forget everything that my past that build my anxiety.
i dont even know how to heal it
Perfect timing 👌 took an Ativan last Friday and for the last 10 days was in living hell 🙏🏽
Why? Because of the ativan?
Magnesium citrate (avoid mg oxide) helps with brain fog, anxiety, conpulsive behavior, muscle pain and learning disabilities. It helped me a lot with racing thoughts, felt a higher sense of peace and everything seemed so much clear. It also aids with sleep. If still unsure check out "the magnesium miracle" by Carolyn Dean.
You took supplements or Mg as food ?
@@vidfav1221 both, but supplements can be best if you suspect a high deficiency. You can incorporate foods and even stop the supplements if you are sure you are getting it from food. Or use both if you feel you still don't get enough.
@@supDARe36 thanks I have been suffering from anxiety past few months, this is new to me. I am trying my best to get out of
This struggle without tablets and feel confident normal life again
@@vidfav1221 supplements are not meant to be permanent but can give you fast relief if your depression is severe. Take note of all the advice on this column and I wish you the best of life.
@@supDARe36Can Mg citrate cure the anxity problm, plz rply?

I can resume this video in two words. PHYSICAL EXERCISE.
Overrated
Good stuff! Great job!
Thank you!
My anxiety is so bad and I'm doing some of these things but I hadn't looked at my diet before. I wake up every morning and for the first few hours I feel super anxious. Then it settles somewhat because I meditate and keep reminding myself that it's just my anxiety. I struggle to go out especially alone and will avoid going out alone anywhere that's at a distance. I'm ok if it's close by and I don't need to get a bus. I am completely reliant on my boyfriend to help me get to further distances. I don't work because I have a phobia of working. Some days I struggle to cope with the symptoms. I will look at your other videos, I'm desperate to find a solution. I want my life before anxiety back, I just don't know how.
I feel like if you completely take sugar out of your life you can’t say you’re enjoying life PERIOD
Dr Nicole,
Thank you for your work and for sharing it! Your Instagram account is an absolute treasure.
Could you suggest some readings or authors or resources to learn about food and mental health correlations? I am especially interested if there is a certain correlation between meat-eating; as well as vegetarian and vegan diets and anxiety/depression or mood swings.
