Two factors Physiological and psychological consists in Anxiety, My physiological state is whenever I move around I get palpitations and I think for a second in the back of the mind I will get it and I do. I didn't know human body is that weak if the thoughts can do that to the body oh wow why can't we think we'll be become strong and simply just happen ?
I’m grateful for you... wisdom right here ... just listening to this I feel so much calmer , my stomach ache has subsided .. yes I have constructed a pathway to sensitivity , repetitive cycling paths ( my mom died of pancreatic cancer and I’m convinced I’ll have same )
That's me as well... I had some experiences in my childhood (not even my own health issues) and they have been the source of never ending anxiety because of my health. EVERY new feeling in my body is automatically a new disease and it's horrible....
Trudy, How are you now? In life there are only 2 problems--mind and the body. To feel better reduce negative thoughts [overthinking]. Your breathing is closely related to the brain [mind] and gives good relief from stress-anxiety. To relax sit on a chair or lie down, neck straight, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. With daily practice the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Observe your breath sensations when taking a walk, before sleep, in school, at work, when reading, etc. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a better life. Reduce negative social media, take morning sunlight walks and avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Best wishes--Counsellor.
@@trudy7016 Since many years I have made it a habit to observe my breath sensations even during my normal activities and I am feeling relaxed and healthy. Anywhere-anytime it can be done. The best part is nobody comes to know that you are doing the breath observing practice as there is no deep breathing or sound. Reduce watching negative social media and avoid constipation as it affects the mind. Read my msg and do the practice regularly. Best wishes. Sr. Counsellor.
Dealing with anxiety is like....having the same day over and over and just when you think it's over.... It begins again. Then being told by "professionals" that you need to take the "medicine" longer or try the breathing techniques more so basically it's your fault that youve been tormented daily.
Adriana Ramirez Mainly because the cellular memory that is connected to your emotional traumas haven’t been identified and changed. When you can present to you subconscious mind a new belief that you know is truer and makes more sense than the old fear based one, it will take it into consideration, and with every action that supports that new belief it will grow to become the default. You are more than anxiety, this channel will help heal. ❤️
@christopher brown why cant you accept a "God"? The Engery you are made of cannot be created or destroyed, and yet we know it wasn't always here. So it came from somewhere right? Why not an infinite energy source that exists out side and independent of space-time. If it did, "which I argue it dose" and is sentient that would be by definition a "God", every thing would be made through, by and from "IT." I argue it is sentient because we know the universe acknowledges us observing it, this can be seen in the double split experiment and among others. Even the very thoughts in your head while reading this dont exist, they are non-tangible, they are made of literally nothing, but somehow exist. Quantum theory suggests past, present, and future exist simultaneously, this is why the D-wave computer works, but they dont know "how it works" because it wont quantum compute when they look at the processor computing. Because again the universe knows when its being observed. If you can wrap your head around that, then the unknown is not hard part, and personally God is not out of the question. Just seek truth not "Religion" and you will be led in the right direction whatever that direction maybe as long as it is paved with insight and enlightenment.
So glad to have found you... I thought I was alone.... I've been a health anxiety sufferer for 10 years and it's been hell inside my head. No one understands... doctors dont listen to me... test after test after test.... I've had enough.
It’s always fear of death and dying and my body sensations towards my heart and everything points I’m having a heart attack !!!! It’s so much of my days !!!!
Wow. I’ve never seen so many people explaining their dizziness/lightheadedness. I’ve been dealing with it for 3 years. I’ve had every test done you can imagine. Still get convinced it’s something else when I get an intense bout of it. Get convinced it’s my brain, my blood pressure, my heart… it’s torture.

New here at 1am - My anxiety wakes me up almost every night with heart racing, brain buzzing. Will be watching more videos. Anxiety affects my work, my ability to ride a motorcycle, sometimes just driving the car over bridges.... it's the worst thing that's happened to me in my life. I'll do anything to make it go away.
I can't believe this you went to the root and real cause of it. My parents are doctors and my father used to talk about patients and their diseases, symptoms etc. I used to feel a single symptom and my mind creates it to the severe disorder possible. It has eaten half of my life. I feel worse. Thank you for this I hope I heal
Can we talk on this? I'm goin through this really annoying thing from past 6 years now am gradually defeatin this uninvited guest wid some really workin excerises.
I have suffered from GAD, Health Anxiety, OCD and PTSD for most of my life. I am now 64 years old and you are the first person who's ever broken down in detail what I think and how I react to my thoughts through physical reactions. It feels good not to be the only GAD person who thinks he's the only GAD person.
I found this channel today being tired of the constant throat tightness, the constant shaking my legs to get energy out. I watched about 3 videos and im glad I can relate! Seeing other stress or be anxious over similar things. Its comforting knowing im not alone.
I always feel stuck when i have anxiety, i always feel trapped and there’s no way out for me. And there’s moments where i know that i spend all my time just thinking that I’m going to have a heart attack because i had a sharp pain in my arm. Or i have a migraine then i think i have a tumor or a brain bleed. I’m so happy that i actually found your account and now i feel hope that i can actually recover from this! Thank you!
You know, I came here in desperation, and I find this Anxiety Guy! He got it, it makes sense, finally, I've been looking and finding all his videos! It's my Ancxiety1,at what I call U Tube University! Thank you and God Please Bless this man, he is saving so many ofYour children!
Mine is severe worrying about everything in my body. I get a headache I’m Having an aneurysm. My panic manifest as shortness of breathe and just breathing issues, chest tightness and dizziness. It’s a vicious cycle and some days it last all day long.
It’s called health anxiety, apparently. I probably have that too, it’s been 2 years now that I worry about every single shit that happens to my body. Last year I thought that I had colon cancer. This year I thought that I had a neurological disease. It’s just too much, during those days, I can’t be alone, because otherwise my thoughts just fucking attack me like some wild wolves and I can’t to anything except for thinking that I’m sick. It’s fucking terrible, again, it’s just too much
Dennis you are truly a gift from heaven's above because I have been suffering from Illness Anxiety Disorder for over 9 years and even until now I am still suffering but everytime it will occur I will eventually view your vids it's kinda a debilitating feeling over those years and the common belief is carcinophobia. The fear of having a cancer.
Out of all the videos i have watched, i really enjoy yours and they help me. I am 42 and have had panic attacks for about 30 years. It's a terrible feeling. Thank you so much for these videos. They give me hope.
Your channel and content is helping me examine how my health anxiety can impact my life. A lot of it is rooted in fear and the notion that if you want to feel good, the good can't last forever.
I just wanna share, 2 years ago i've been suffering a lot of symptoms that leads me to panic almost everyday and i dont have any idea what's happening to me until i stumble to this channel,it help me alot to understand what was really happening and slowly deal with it and live to it on a day to day basis,until now i still have some symptoms but i can manage compared to before. Thank you for the help and wisdom.
Dennis has been a guide throughout my journey. I still am on my journey towards making my life better but journaling Dennis's advice regularly has had such a great effect alongwith other changes. Most of my physical symptoms have resolved just a few sleepless night here and there. I hope too resolve that too
So true. It's very rare that i am aware of why i am anxious or why i am having a panic attack. My life is good, no stress but every single day my solar plexus hurts and i have no more confidence in myself. Anxious Jana and Jana are 2 different person. Thank you for your support. It is very appreciated. 🌟🌟🌟
I LOVE that you call us WARRIORS!!! Ive been battling daily symptoms so much along with going to school at the age of 50 and finally graduated yesterday and my schools mascot is "The Warriors"
You be surprised all them baby steps add up 1 day 1 step at a time it may feel dark but there's light at the end of the tunnel just like Peter Pan and neverland all you have to do is believe🙏
I got traumatized by trembling and twitches. It was a month ago I had an allergic reaction to an antibiotic and I went pretty out of control I went to ER 4 times but I realized enough is enough it is anxiety and that I just will do what I need to do to get help and live with less and less fear. Ugh I know I keep goin to the past if only I took a different antibiotic.and I have to stop that but yes it’s hard but I can do it so if anyone is suffering just know that it may feel like you will have this forever but just know it does get better and it’s not your fault but you do have to work at getting yourself to a better place. It’s hard I know and I struggle too but we can do it just try to power through it. Surround yourself with loved ones or your pets and keep coming to this channel keep chatting with people like you. You are a warrior not a victim no matter how much your mind tries to convince you so. We are warriors!❤️
Leaha Hammond i have them after masturbation my heart is fine tho i guess its becuz of adrenaline as it is already high becuz of anxiety please answer me
@theanxietyguy I have a history of anxiety that was brought on by my upbringing. I remember having debilitating anxiety as a kid to the point I would vomit regularly. However, I haven't had an episode since I was an adolescent. I am 26 now and have recently gone through some pretty big life changes. Thus, my anxiety and panic attacks have started up again. I am having such a hard time dealing with them especially since it is the first time dealing with them in my adult life. However, your videos are the only thing that calms me down in the middle of a panic attack. My most prominent fear is "going crazy" and entering psychosis from my anxiety. I work in mental health so I am constantly fearing that I will become one of my patients. I am always so relieved after watching your videos and having someone else to relate to. Thank you.
Me, when I felt something on my body like my vision changes light-headed or head pressure I feel like I'm having sickness and thinking much deeper all the symptoms, scared, fear that I will be like this or that.
In my family we have a syndrome that involves heart problems !!!It was so difficult for me to believe that I don't have a heart problem but after some years of having or not palpitations I started control my pulse and it took me so many years to accept that I have anxiety !!!!Check Barry Mac Donagh and Mel Robbins!!!!You have to broke the pattern that you are gonna die or faint!!!personally I don't bother from symptoms but mostly that I kill my mind with that worry !!!I work on that!!!!
katerina katerinaki same here Brother who died from a heart condition he went to the ER with symptoms then he died at home, but he was Marfan syndrome is a congenital disease, I don’t have the condition but I stress out it could happen to me a Misdiagnosis like it happen to him, it just horrible, now his death anniversary is this moth February I’m feeling all the chest pain, feeling off, it’s just horrible!
Because for health anxiety sufferers like us there seems to be a sense of safety in fear. Thing is there are way too many available info on the internet both good and bad that we can access easily which turns us into hypochondriacs or rather, cyberchondriacs.
Dear Dennis, I don't know how to thank you for your videos and teaching. I'm French leaving in France, so quite far ;). No one has been able so far to explain what was going on in my body for 6 years now. I've had terrible times with chronic dizziness and head pressure since my divorce, it's been really tough… I got of course all health examinations done with doctors jumping from one diagnosis to another with no result and only more anxiety… When I found by chance your videos very recently, it's been like a miracle: at last I understand what I have and what's happening to me. Those last years have been terrible and I was feeling lost and desperate even if I've always tried to think that one day things would improve. I am following all your recommendations and thanks to you, I have at last been able to get knowledge and understanding on what my body&brain are doing!! Thousand thanks from the other side of the Atlantic and sorry for my mistakes in English… I'm so grateful to get access to all your videos. THANK YOU DENNIS. Isabelle
Nico Toscani u have to completely accept don't call it a set back more of a learning curve to practice acceptance had hard as it is im in the same boat right now good luck
So it’s been over a year since my last panic attack. Yes, I still feel anxiety frequently but no panic attacks. I read a fantastic book named The Panic Switch. I got it off amazon. It’s a very helpful book. I’ve read it 3 times lol. It helped me figure out some things that I was doing that was triggering my full blown panic attacks. I suggest you guys give it a try. However, what REALLY has helped me cope with anxiety is exercise. When I start feeling panic or anxiety I go for a run, whether it’s outside or on a treadmill. When we go into what is called “flight or fight” mode, running is EXACTLY what your body/mind is telling you to do. So you know what???? Do it. It’s not going to cure you over night but it’s going to help. The more and more you do it, the better it feels. I never thought I’d be a runner but I am now. Anxiety is under control, blood pressure is lower, cholesterol is lower and I lost 20lbs!!! Don’t sulk when it hits you! Kick some ass and go for a run! Play a sport! Punch a punching bag! Anything!!!!! It works! Yes, you’ll still get anxious but it becomes manageable. I hope this helps. I’ve been battling anxiety for years and I’m just starting to figure it out. ✌🏼
Nico Toscani hey hun I’m having it so mad gay I’m thinking some thing is wrong. I was doing so good for months then it’ll come back for a title but but now I’m dealing with the pulling up of the top of your head and the chest tightness and dizziness . All because I’m in school
I went to therapy, got meds, was feeling great for about 6 months, then i had a heart flutter :) now im back in the horrible cycle, and that causes more flutters and now here i am, afraid to sleep cause i know when i wake up its another day of it
Richiemylove The moment you hold up a white flag and surrender to the bodily sensations knowing in your gut they caused by a reaction and isn’t the root of something beginning, is freedom. ❤️
Richiemylove after you’ve had a cardiology exam, be at peace. I’ve had these for more than 25 years. They can be frightening, but you must take control of fear.
CONNORGIRL RILEY I get these flutters to. Twain the doctors have said there down to anxiety but I'm not sure.. you say 25 years of flutters an you say they can be fearfull. So that means we gotta live in fear for decades.. life's to hard in it.
Story time, I worked in sales and during my last week at the job, one of the regular customers had passed in his sleep. At first, I was caught off guard and I thought I closed it out of my mind. The last week I had questions, like, what caused his death. A passerby, not even his family, mentioned he was complaining about stomach pains the week prior. The person that passed didn’t have the greatest diet and constantly downed Monsters energy drinks etc etc. Today, I’m fighting what I think is health anxiety. The week after I left the job I felt indigestion constantly. I’m now understanding, thanks to this video, that my unconscious mind was making me feel as if I could be feeling what the customer felt the week prior his death. That week with the constant indigestion led to me not sleeping well, constantly fearing everything related to what I feel. I started getting random muscle spasms all over my body, which I usually get when I don’t get enough proper sleep due to stress. You can start seeing the cycle now. As of this moment, I’m watching what I’m eating, I’m cycling and walking more. I still for some reason, wake up with what I feel are panic attacks. I wake up in the middle of the night with the urgent need to use the restroom and there my panic is induced. I’m looking for resolutions for my morning panic attacks. I also made an appointment with a doctor to get blood work done because the not knowing if I’m really sick or I’m causing this unconsciously is not helping. I just wanted to share this because I know in the darkest of area, a small lot bulb can go a long way. This video helped me realized what was the event that might have caused my current anxiety/health anxiety cycle.
Joseph Dejesus I’ve seen you comment on a couple of posts. I’m at month 6 now. This last week has probably been the best and most “normal” Ive felt since I’ve had my first attack on August 8th. I’ve never gone to therapy although I am going to start March 7th. It has been a hard cycle. But the key is to recognizing it is as just that, simply, a CYCLE and fighting to break it. I used to have horrible intrusive thoughts (common with anxiety or OCD sufferers), googled every little response and thought I was going crazy and gonna die, etc...perpetuating my anxiety and endless fear. I know it’s easier said than done... and I have people that would say “just talk yourself out of it; stop worrying”, it would just make me mad and I wanna scream “ITS NOT THAT EASY!”. But it honestly can be, and that’s the trick... make a serious effort to think positive and talk to yourself during those trying times... tell yourself the opposite of what you think, and keep telling your self what you feel is a natural response and ride the waves... don’t give up hope.
Joseph Dejesus and YOU ARE stronger than it... the key is being SMARTER than your anxiety. You know it’s there, you know what it is, just have to understand how you are reacting to it is what perpetuates the cycle. If it helps, whenever I would get worked up, I just research anxiety, what it is, the core, and just read. Educate yourself on it. Not on “symptoms” or what you think could be wrong. You’ll come to find a lot of health care professionals have varying opinions on where it stems from, and how it can be “cured”. Everyone gets anxiety, but it’s how “we” are wired and our learned behaviors make us more susceptible to blowing it out of proportion and worrying it into something it’s not. It gets better I promise. I know it may be hard for you to believe right now, I was the same way. And I know exactly how you feel. For the last 6-7 months I felt disassociation , like a gray film was over my life, a severe depression. Days I had to fight to get up and go to work just because I didn’t want to be alone at home and at night with my thoughts. And I was the same. At night my mind goes crazy. Your mind tricks you into seeing things, hearing things, believing things that aren’t completely true when you’re under this amount of stress. First, focus on de-stressing yourself. I promise you, this helped me. I know it’s easier said than done, but try to be healthy and strive for an active healthy lifestyle!!!! Exercise, find hobbies, make goals to preoccupy you when times get hard.
HGHRCLB that is what’s going on with me I suffered a severe anxiety in 2018 and January 2019 but then in February i felt so good but again in march as he described some events triggers your anxiety same happens to me and I started feeling the symptoms but this time i know it’s just anxiety nothing else but i never had indigestion problems but know I’m facing them i have pain all around my abdomen and i feel bloated all the time for the past few days which is scaring me because the google said i have IBS or ovarian cancer or colon cancer bla bla but i know it’s nothing but a useless though because i just read it somewhere that people with stress and anxiety tends to have IBS disease so my mind is messing with me but after reading your comment i felt a relief
HGHRCLBR Hey! Thanks for sharing. I hope you’re doing better. There was this YOutuber that recently died of pancreatic cancer. She was young and had complained of simple on and off stomach cramps and indigestion. Ever since, I’ve been feeling intermittent stomach pains and cramps with indigestion and now I’m fearing I have the dreadful pancreatic cancer. I’m pregnant and I want to live for my child. I’m desperate to get rid of these thoughts that are absolutely taking away my consciousness. Anyway, your story reminded me of mine. I truly hope you’re better. I’m not going to give up until I am rid and free from this hell!
I went to the er for my first panic attack. Then Went to a cardiologist, all good. Then getting weird headaches, scan came back fine. Then Had blood work done, came back fine. I’ve really taken this as a opportunity to get as healthy as I can. Anxiety is down but not completely gone. But I’m the healthiest I can be.
You helped me heal. For about 6 months I was in a horrid mess. I had very severe insomnia. I believe it was caused by trauma event with my sons girlfriend, but I had gotten over the event. What I didn’t know is that the anxiety from the way she made me feel was so bad that it was locked in my anxiety. It is my anxiety causing my insomnia. When I’d try to sleep I’d get pain in my hands and feet and didn’t feel tired. When i saw her from a distance yesterday, I didn’t feel anything. I slept good the night after. So thank you for this video. Your other video Guided meditation for anxiety, helps me fall asleep every time. Thanks you so much.
Youre always talking about "you can be who u want to be and get the life u want" but what if I don't know what i want to do? I've missed out so much in my life because of fear that I don't even know what i like to do. I have good memories of doing stuff that made me feel good like fishing for example but if I do those things now it will feel as if I'm trying to run from my feelings 😓
traktorflickan “find what you love and let it kill you” you are not giving yourself a chance to enjoy the things you use to love doing because of fear. Take the fear out of the equation and you will start loving those things again. (I understand easier said than done) there’s a phrase that goes “feel the fear and do it anyway” the more you repeat this the less fear is felt. It’s totally understandable the way you feel but you can learn to love those things again! Right now you are just blinded by fear. I hope you find your way 🙏🏼❤️
yoh.......I feel exactly the same. It is a hard place to be in...but I have got to the point..to say to myself...just try everything I think I might love...what is the worst that can happen.
FINALLY! someone who knows what u feel! someone who can tell me what to do when i feel like this! i just had a panic attack because i kept remembering about a traumatic moment. all the things i felt that day i felt today, all those things i said that day i said today! it was crazy! thank you ! i feel like i understand more about my anxiety :) this helped so much! definitely watching all the rest of your videos!
This is my new favorite channel! Can't afford your program yet but your videos really help me viewing my health anxiety from another perspective. I will heal. Greetings from Indonesia ❤
Currently sitting the a bath trying to feel through a panic experience. Your words have helped me so much. I know I don't need to go to the ER. I know my body is trying to tell me something. Thank you for your words. They are helping immensely.
I just wanted to say Thank you! I feel a little better after watching this. My symptoms are still present..... & I’m recovering. Putting it out in the air.
Thank you so much for this. I was feeling kind of cryish watching this because I completely feel this at times. I’m so happy I’m not alone, and that I found you.
I flippin love your channel you are an absolute legend helping others with anxiety. I got your program and it has seriously ended my anxiety. I will support your channel forever though with or without anxiety.
thank you Dennis everything you do is incredible for us Warriors, so much free content, I am so happy I invested in your program I am seeing shifts huge shifts in my old anxious patterns and the program is really keeping me accountable. you Rock. #morethananxiety
Dennis you are a true gem. I am also an anxiety sufferer and nobody understands the feelings If I say it to them. That doesn't matter though but whenever I listen to your videos I feel that you are speaking in my words what I am facing, And it gives me a hope and motivates me to the path of recovery. I don't know how much time it's gonna take but will try and will get over it. Thanks for the videos which you post. 😊
My brother died at 35 yrs old due a heart aneurysm he did had a congenital disease he did not treat properly, reason he died so sudden, after that episode of his dead I feel like I’m dying. I had a baby 2016, 2017 his death then I suffered Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, then after that I moved to The USA changing from one place to another, moving from one Job to another Job, let me clear you I’m a Nurse. All these factors have triggered my anxiety into a point I feel light headed and can’t sleep properly.
Thank you Dennis great video, I am back with my health anxiety again these symptoms don't stop It feels like a dead end :-( I'm tired of this already!!
I have recently realized I have, and have had, anxiety. Most recently I’ve had anxiety attacks but before that I would dwell on the past and worry so much about the future and about made up situations. In recent weeks I have been reflecting on what my brain is thinking and doing to put me in these intense moments of anxiety and it’s made me more anxious. I am just now starting my journey to recovering and understanding. Thank you for sharing the way you do and helping anyone you can.
I've had that. I've also had neck and head tightness. It does get better with time when you allow it to be there, try to fill your life with other things, and don't focus and ruminate about it. But I understand, it's really awful T_T
I’m 17 I’ve had anxiety for a couple years but it’s never concerned me. About 4 months ago someone Put a gun to my chest and threatened to kill me, my body went completely numb and I convinced myself I was going to die. When I managed to get out of that situation my body was I fight or flight like I’ve never experienced before. I’m still questioning that day, I’ve been having panic attacks and my chest is tight 24/7 I’ve been to the hospital 3 times now and I’m scared to be in my body and I feel lost.
Found you today and YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please keep doing what you're doing. I've never been diagnosed with GA, my mom was never into therapy....actually asking for help at all lol. So i took after her (not really a good or bad thing just an is thing). I've kinda just found ways to "just be" and things say to myself when I feel like Im getting worked up. For a long time i didnt even know everyones brain wasn't as active as mine and that what I may be experiencing is Anxiety. But anywho...as of recent...Ive been going to some spiritual changes and getting freaking flooded and the ways I used to calm myself WEREN'T WORKING. So then I started obsessing about what could be wrong...which made things worse. But one moment at a time. I have to remind myself change is okay and stop being lazy with myself and start finding new things that work for me, I love how you speak about anxiety. makes me feel less anxious. Sending a huge thanks!
I suffer from "imagined interactions" where I imagine these scenarios and conversations with people where everything goes wrong and I obsess over what I should say if these interactions happen. The problem is...they never happen! And yes, it is totally subconscious. Conquering these ideas is my biggest challenge in life.
Matty Gauthier omg this happens to me too, when I’m eating dinner with my family I just imagine something bad happening to me but it never happens. Health Anxiety really plays with our mind.
My friend passed away due to kidney failure now I'm everyday trying to convince me I'm not having these things , i only have kidny stones issue but nothing else still ......everyday any sensation in my body ...i always thought of getting blood tests and all.....( Although I already has taken all the reports and all is fine ) but still....it's terrible ...please guide something so I can comeout of all this things.......it's really really really painful thoughts
You have given me hope with this video. Sometimes I think I have too much anxiety or things wrong with me and there’s no solution. You made me link some things together. Thank you.
Im afraid of throwing up, so when i feel the tiniest feeling in my stomach or im nauseaus my heart rate goes to 130+bps and my stress goes up. It really sucks. Its hard to convince myself that im oke.
I have been struggling with anxiety for some months now,I must say this is awful...I am also going through perimenopause...I acknowledge this condition,but I will not let it consume me!!! With God,and this channel we all shall overcome in the Mighty Name of Jesus!!! Thanks for this channel😊
7 months ago. I had a panic attack and thought that my lungs were failing and I had a extremely intense panic attack. I woke up and didn't feel right and it actually turned out I was sick and had walking pneumonia and began to spit up blood ect. I've had blood work multiple times,CT scans,stress tests, mri and every test came back good. Its become so bad that I was so disassociated from myself and the real world that I couldn't even comprehend my own thoughts or memories and can't remember 3 months of the 7. I think about the sensations I feel in my body being my ribs/ feeling like I can't breathe correctly and the list goes on. I have constant ringing in my ears all day because I was in the middle of a panic attack and blew my nose and heard a bottle rocket come out of my ear. I think about my health constantly even though every test has come back. I was having a multiple panic attacks everyday and couldn't even live alone. 7 months later im at my own home again,but I freak out alot and all I think about is whatever is going on. I'm so disassociated that I have questioned everything from the real world to being human to what it means to exist. To who my family is. Is this real life ect and the list goes on. I completely understand what it is happening to me,but I can't shake the nervousness. The feeling of being tense. I question everything. Is my body tense? Is it not? Is the pain alot or is it not? I had an upper GI and a colonoscopy and im 27 because I thougnts that what i needed and it all came back good. They told me I had high blood pressure,but the stress test was completely good. I think and fight myself on this all day. When I leave my home I get extremely panicky and now its happening at my house. I try to be normal and feel like it use to. I lived for 26 years without this problem so I say it will pass. I have not had many thoughts aside from my health. I feel like im fighting every second of every day to live and not drop over and die. I was diagnosed with chronic ptsd and panic disorder,but I tell people that I refuse to live like this,but I've yet to find a solution. I had a extremely shitty childhood which makes sense,but I do feel like im going insane or going to die soon. Idk. I've made alot of progress. 7 months ago I wouldn't be able to even type this message let alone be at my home by myself. But it still tortures me everyday. I use to love gojjg out and doing things and now I've been home for months afraid im going to die. I wake up and my first thought is health or pain in my body. I'm tense all day and I use to be sooo relaxed all the time. Calm. I feel like ill never come out of this,but im aware its a mental blocker and I know its me,but a part of me says what if? What if this is the time? Ehat if im wrong this time and it actually is a heart attack or a stroke or this and that? They say hypochondriac disorder,but the disassociated sensation and thinking really scares me. I don't know who I am anymore,but I know my name and how I grew up and things along those lines. But it doesn't feel real. I don't feel connected to myself or the world when before I was so deeply connected to everything around me... short version.
I think this is what I'm dealing with as well. My mother passed away a year ago from cancer and now I am constantly worrying and thinking something is seriously wrong with me, but I think it's just my anxiety... it's awful
Hi, everyone. I suffer from this, too. My father suffered from a long term illness for 12 years before he passed away when I was 15. So I’ve practically watched my dad dying for a long time. And all my life I’ve been really scared of illnesses and of death. Cancer. Heart failure. COPD. Kidney failure. These are what I’ve been afraid of one after another throughout my life. I’m scared of doctors and tests because deep down I believe they would DEFINITELY find something wrong with me. All my health tests usually turn out to give good results but I keep hopping from one symptom to another, focusing on the worst possibility and negative thoughts. I’ve just started realizing and accepting my health anxiety issue and I’m determined to fight it and eliminate it from my life for good. To everyone here, I wish you best of luck. You’re never alone. Thank you Dennis for these wonderful videos!
Same here not to long ago this year my brother passed away so now i feel as if im a reflection of him and all these symptoms just been coming at me which scares to thinking something gonna happen
Had a loved one pass it brought out my fear and they passed from heart and that’s my biggest fear and now it’s 4am and here I am ! But I am changing my thought process and I’m not where I use to be which is a huge step but not yet where I want to be yet !!!!! It’s huge where I am now
Wow! This is so healing to me! It truly resonates for me. Thank you for the confirmation! I can’t wait to go through the rest of the videos! Thank you for this video! I am in the road to recovery.
I have listened to you for a short time. Not sure how long maybe a month. Casually and without effort. I already notice I feel so much better. I am actually getting things done and reduced worrying by a lot -- maybe 70 pct. If feels so good and so freeing. Thank you so much. You understand. I didn't know what was wrong with me. I knew I was so different from others and couldn't figure out why. I wanted to control everything and rationally I knew that is not possible. I still spent hours agonizing over every detail of my life and researching everything before making a decision and still couldn't make a decision in case it was wrong. I think it's funny how you figured out exactly how many hours you spent on worrying. That is me. I have to know the 'details' for everything. I went to a psychiratrist for 10 years and 2 different Ph.D. in Psychology and NOBODY mentioned Generalized Anxiety Disorder. Just KNOWING that is what is wrong with me has relieved a lot of stress. Now when I have those odd feelings and worries I know what it is so I can let it go. I am going to buy your books but need audio so figuring that out because I don't have a way to download that. I do have health issues that are real. I have also had some strange symptoms that I can not figure out and it is a weird feeling like I 'm dying or feel toxic like poisoned or maybe eating unhealthy food. This has been for at least 20 years. The serious health conditions I have now cannot explain those feelings and the shortness of breath I've had since I was 28. I now have a-fib but at age 28 I didn't. You are a genius and I am so grateful.
everyday it’s a pain somewhere else, i suffer from joint pain and i feel like some days are better than others. but everyday i wake up and i don’t notice the pain i’m so relieved until i get up and the pain is somewhere else. it’s so exhausting and i feel like it’s a constant cycle of pain and desperation
Yes i am i have a fear when i hwar sone one young or okd had a heartattack And i worry when certain i get some illness might cause death Even if i get agitated or get angry I fear i may Have a hearattack or a stroke I was fearless before but now am oversensitive to stuff i cry easily😢
i control my anxiety when i go outside.but still have rush of negative thoughts and physical symptoms like light headness..what should i do with these feelng because its irritate me alot
I find it difficult to deal with normal health conditions. For example; I am recently getting over an ear infection which has left fluid in my ear, causes imbalance, dizziness etc. so while this may just be a normal sickness for some, my brain catastrophizes this and I tell myself “I’m going to feel like this forever”, “I’m scare it won’t end”, etc. and I will obsess and ruminate over it until the symptoms/sickness pass. I will tell myself I have something worse going on and it’s “not just an ear infection”, etc. I have horrible GAD, but I feel my focus is mainly on health, and I hate it. I think because I pay a lot more attention to what goes on in my body, that these experiences are harder for me, and I’m extremely sensitive and I feel everything more 😢.
I watched you a few years ago while I was convinced I had a serious disease and I'm watching you again after I've recently noticed I'm having some high blood pressure. Of course my mind became a living hell over the past few days, thinking about how much weight I've gained and how I've let myself go and that I'm for sure going to die. I didn't even eat for a few days, really. I had sensations like crazy and I'm sure extreme anxiety isn't helping my blood pressure either. I went and saw a doctor, though. This video is calming me down and I'm probably gonna get some decent sleep. Thank you.
I went to Dr's and found out the heart arrhythmias were caused by an aneurysm in the atrial septum that has a shunt or PFO. Also I suffer a long qt wave. I've had panic and anxiety since 1995. I got to a point were the symptoms and even the real issues don't bother me. I fear the fear itself and worry about things like, "what if I am separated from Love and God"? "What if I have to go through eternity in torment"? I had so much fear, trauma and criticism pumped into me has a child, I don't know how to exist any other way. I think you are right that it is scary to think about trying to move from what we know. I don't even know how, so, I'm so happy I found your youtube videos. Yours are the most on point and informational ones I've seen. Some try to speek on the subject without first hand knowledge of actually having gone through it and it sounds like empty rhetoric. I look forward to learning more from you! Thank you :-)!
I am so appreciative of your videos and honestly just discovered you:) I am unfortunately a long time sufferer of health anxiety which has led to heavy bouts of depression. I have had therapy, am continuing medication and hoping I can move forward once and for all (I am dealing with (triggered by covid) depression and heavy health anxiety right now. This video has really inspired me to try to transition to something new.
I have health anxiety I see a neurologist for my symptoms and had a ct scan because I fear a brain aneurysm! I have symptoms in one spot in my head like tingling, pain, headaches all day everyday and wierd pains and I looked them up and it scared me even more I don’t trust my doctor or my scans I don’t know how to stop it I’m only 18 I’m starting to get so depressed I don’t know how to brake the cycle please help!
We’re in the same boat I’m going threw my first month of this exact feeling it’s weird to explain my doctor says it’s anxiety even tho I haven’t had tests done or seen a neurologist he says I don’t need to see one because it’s all anxiety I’m telling myself it’s anxiety hopefully I can learn to convince myself I’m fine , hope your doing better if also love some feed back on your journey
I ve been having all physical symptoms such as skin sensitivity, skin burning, twitching, pins and needles, random pains all over, tinnitus, chest tightness, breathing problems, dry itchy eyes, and many more. 😢😢 I ve gone through two divorces, 2 birth of my children, business closure, 3 surgeries, one medical problem, pandemic and long life health anxiety
Hi, I have an issue where Im constantly overbreathing and feeling like im gonna stop breathing and its really tiring and annoying. It's like constant hyperventilation and I never feel relaxed. Any tips? :)
Another fantastic video Dennis. Everything u said is true to a T. Working on this everyday thanks to you. God bless u for helping so many of us out. I finally feel like warrior!
Thank u for the great talk. Useful. I recently watched ur videos and followed ur advice to feel better. Yet i allow myself to make a slight adjustment. Intuition is what we anxious people were made to silence due to suppression and repression. Intuition leads us if listened to. Our inner voice that was introjected is whats hurtful and attacks our inruitive skills. Many thanks for all the great work
One of your best so far very helpful and very well explained by you so that people can actually understand whats going on not bombarded with huge words and talking a load of bullshit that nobody kns whats going on like some do so thanks dennis for your v well explained videos and your time you spend on putting these together i appreciate it we all do ❤❤
thanks for all your encouragement.. i see a counselor who weekly tells me ‘you will never be healed, you will always deal with anxiety- it’s about accepting it and working with it’ and i have to rebuke her in my head!
linds dem Counter that by asking her how certain people who’ve gone through the same pain have gotten to freedom themselves? This sort of narrow minded thinking is very much the biggest problem today, and the subconscious mind will accept any suggestion that gets accepted by others so beware. ❤️
I stopped seeing my counselor because he said instead of trying to fix your anxiety just meditate and that will really help you! Yeah that’s true but that’s all you as a therapist will help me with is to tell me to meditate and will go over it in session bull !
The Anxiety Guy yes! i’m looking for someone new now. i really do like her and she’s a great person but i don’t agree with her views on many things and while she’s helped me in some areas, it’s time to find someone with the same mindset and core values as me
That’s rubbish - anxiety is completely curable. Get a new therapist or listen to this guy more. Can’t believe you were told this - it annoys me to hear.
I’m having a bad anxiety right now.. heart not palpitating instead I feel weak can’t feel a thing and feel like I’m going to stop breathing and cease to exist. I think I’m dying from this anxiety 😭😭
I’ve been dealing with anxiety for about 4 years. I was able to control it before but now these past two weeks it’s been nonstop. Morning till night worst feeling everrrr! I hate it so muchh! I try to distract myself and all that but nothing works it’s hardd. But thank you so much for this video💖

Two factors Physiological and psychological consists in Anxiety, My physiological state is whenever I move around I get palpitations and I think for a second in the back of the mind I will get it and I do. I didn't know human body is that weak if the thoughts can do that to the body oh wow why can't we think we'll be become strong and simply just happen ?
@@TheLetterK81 oh your so right....have a nice day
Health anxiety has made me question everything my body does and has made me think I have everything. Watching this video to calm and refocus.
Hope Berry I’m happy it gave you perspective. ❤️
Try apple cider vinegar wid warm water and honey
I’m grateful for you... wisdom right here ... just listening to this I feel so much calmer , my stomach ache has subsided .. yes I have constructed a pathway to sensitivity , repetitive cycling paths ( my mom died of pancreatic cancer and I’m convinced I’ll have same )
That's me as well... I had some experiences in my childhood (not even my own health issues) and they have been the source of never ending anxiety because of my health. EVERY new feeling in my body is automatically a new disease and it's horrible....
Been suffering with this for 10 years. Living in fear everyday is a living hell, I'm so tired of fighting this demon but I won't give up
Have you tried ketamine infusions
Trudy, How are you now? In life there are only 2 problems--mind and the body. To feel better reduce negative thoughts [overthinking]. Your breathing is closely related to the brain [mind] and gives good relief from stress-anxiety. To relax sit on a chair or lie down, neck straight, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. With daily practice the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Observe your breath sensations when taking a walk, before sleep, in school, at work, when reading, etc. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a better life. Reduce negative social media, take morning sunlight walks and avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Best wishes--Counsellor.
@@shyaaammeneen63 Thank you 🙏
@@trudy7016 Since many years I have made it a habit to observe my breath sensations even during my normal activities and I am feeling relaxed and healthy. Anywhere-anytime it can be done. The best part is nobody comes to know that you are doing the breath observing practice as there is no deep breathing or sound. Reduce watching negative social media and avoid constipation as it affects the mind. Read my msg and do the practice regularly. Best wishes. Sr. Counsellor.
@@shyaaammeneen63 thank u
Dealing with anxiety is like....having the same day over and over and just when you think it's over.... It begins again. Then being told by "professionals" that you need to take the "medicine" longer or try the breathing techniques more so basically it's your fault that youve been tormented daily.
This channel will help heal. ❤️
Too true
It seems like a never ending nightmare
Adriana Ramirez Mainly because the cellular memory that is connected to your emotional traumas haven’t been identified and changed. When you can present to you subconscious mind a new belief that you know is truer and makes more sense than the old fear based one, it will take it into consideration, and with every action that supports that new belief it will grow to become the default. You are more than anxiety, this channel will help heal. ❤️
I know. Right?
@christopher brown why cant you accept a "God"? The Engery you are made of cannot be created or destroyed, and yet we know it wasn't always here. So it came from somewhere right? Why not an infinite energy source that exists out side and independent of space-time. If it did, "which I argue it dose" and is sentient that would be by definition a "God", every thing would be made through, by and from "IT."
I argue it is sentient because we know the universe acknowledges us observing it, this can be seen in the double split experiment and among others. Even the very thoughts in your head while reading this dont exist, they are non-tangible, they are made of literally nothing, but somehow exist. Quantum theory suggests past, present, and future exist simultaneously, this is why the D-wave computer works, but they dont know "how it works" because it wont quantum compute when they look at the processor computing. Because again the universe knows when its being observed.
If you can wrap your head around that, then the unknown is not hard part, and personally God is not out of the question. Just seek truth not "Religion" and you will be led in the right direction whatever that direction maybe as long as it is paved with insight and enlightenment.
Don't think that way...🙂🙂🙂
Been dealing with this for 23 years now . . . Drained to the core.
I don’t have enough words to thank you for everything that you do, but still, thank you so much, you’re a priceless blessing to so many of us 😭❤️
You are so welcome
So glad to have found you... I thought I was alone.... I've been a health anxiety sufferer for 10 years and it's been hell inside my head. No one understands... doctors dont listen to me... test after test after test.... I've had enough.
Namira of the Hunt This channel will help greatly. Much love.
I hope you are feeling better now
Namira of the Hunt I’m also a health anxiety suffer and been suffering for 1O years as well!!!!!
I’m the same way Namira. Glad I’m not alone either!
Namira of the Hunt
I understand girl
I’ve watched this video so many times and it gets better and better
It’s always fear of death and dying and my body sensations towards my heart and everything points I’m having a heart attack !!!! It’s so much of my days !!!!
Me too same here but we just can't believing
Wow. I’ve never seen so many people explaining their dizziness/lightheadedness. I’ve been dealing with it for 3 years. I’ve had every test done you can imagine. Still get convinced it’s something else when I get an intense bout of it. Get convinced it’s my brain, my blood pressure, my heart… it’s torture.

I've been suffering with it since 2016. Dizziness and lately high blood pressure
New here at 1am - My anxiety wakes me up almost every night with heart racing, brain buzzing. Will be watching more videos. Anxiety affects my work, my ability to ride a motorcycle, sometimes just driving the car over bridges.... it's the worst thing that's happened to me in my life. I'll do anything to make it go away.
You blew my mind.
Possibly, you changed my life.
I'm gonna need a minute.
Ua not alone
wow yes Im here 5 years later with the same idea
I'm recovering from it daily 🙂
Chandan Mishra Great to hear. ❤️
Chandan how are you doing now
How? I also want to recover😒😒
How....
I’ll help add me on instagram chugh_19
I can't believe this you went to the root and real cause of it. My parents are doctors and my father used to talk about patients and their diseases, symptoms etc. I used to feel a single symptom and my mind creates it to the severe disorder possible. It has eaten half of my life. I feel worse. Thank you for this I hope I heal
Can we talk on this?
I'm goin through this really annoying thing from past 6 years now am gradually defeatin this uninvited guest wid some really workin excerises.
How r u feeling now?
started tearing up watching this. hit home for me. Excellent work. you're a life saver
Up Your Hops ❤️❤️❤️
I have suffered from GAD, Health Anxiety, OCD and PTSD for most of my life. I am now 64 years old and you are the first person who's ever broken down in detail what I think and how I react to my thoughts through physical reactions. It feels good not to be the only GAD person who thinks he's the only GAD person.
I found this channel today being tired of the constant throat tightness, the constant shaking my legs to get energy out. I watched about 3 videos and im glad I can relate! Seeing other stress or be anxious over similar things. Its comforting knowing im not alone.
How is your throat now? Doing any better?
I always feel stuck when i have anxiety, i always feel trapped and there’s no way out for me. And there’s moments where i know that i spend all my time just thinking that I’m going to have a heart attack because i had a sharp pain in my arm. Or i have a migraine then i think i have a tumor or a brain bleed.
I’m so happy that i actually found your account and now i feel hope that i can actually recover from this! Thank you!
OMG me tooo
I’m glad I’m not the only one
I literally just went thru the same shit, sharp chest pains, stroke, heartattack etc
starryeyedjoey feel the same exact way
@@taylerrenee9650 Well, a stroke and heartattack are not anxiety. They're like something else.
You know, I came here in desperation, and I find this Anxiety Guy! He got it, it makes sense, finally, I've been looking and finding all his videos! It's my Ancxiety1,at what I call U Tube University! Thank you and God Please Bless this man, he is saving so many ofYour children!
I agree with u
Mine is severe worrying about everything in my body. I get a headache I’m
Having an aneurysm. My panic manifest as shortness of breathe and just breathing issues, chest tightness and dizziness. It’s a vicious cycle and some days it last all day long.
Same same :( especially chest and heart and I'm only 19 :(
Sameee
Same, but I always think I have a brain tumor and I’ve been like this for a few months:(
It’s called health anxiety, apparently. I probably have that too, it’s been 2 years now that I worry about every single shit that happens to my body. Last year I thought that I had colon cancer. This year I thought that I had a neurological disease. It’s just too much, during those days, I can’t be alone, because otherwise my thoughts just fucking attack me like some wild wolves and I can’t to anything except for thinking that I’m sick.
It’s fucking terrible, again, it’s just too much
How r u now
Dennis you are truly a gift from heaven's above because I have been suffering from Illness Anxiety Disorder for over 9 years and even until now I am still suffering but everytime it will occur I will eventually view your vids it's kinda a debilitating feeling over those years and the common belief is carcinophobia. The fear of having a cancer.
This video will help as well, much love: bit.ly/3q0NAIN
Out of all the videos i have watched, i really enjoy yours and they help me. I am 42 and have had panic attacks for about 30 years. It's a terrible feeling. Thank you so much for these videos. They give me hope.
Your channel and content is helping me examine how my health anxiety can impact my life. A lot of it is rooted in fear and the notion that if you want to feel good, the good can't last forever.
I just wanna share, 2 years ago i've been suffering a lot of symptoms that leads me to panic almost everyday and i dont have any idea what's happening to me until i stumble to this channel,it help me alot to understand what was really happening and slowly deal with it and live to it on a day to day basis,until now i still have some symptoms but i can manage compared to before.
Thank you for the help and wisdom.
Dennis has been a guide throughout my journey. I still am on my journey towards making my life better but journaling Dennis's advice regularly has had such a great effect alongwith other changes. Most of my physical symptoms have resolved just a few sleepless night here and there. I hope too resolve that too
So true. It's very rare that i am aware of why i am anxious or why i am having a panic attack. My life is good, no stress but every single day my solar plexus hurts and i have no more confidence in myself. Anxious Jana and Jana are 2 different person.
Thank you for your support. It is very appreciated. 🌟🌟🌟
i can't afford your health anxiety program now, but your videos are so helpful and important. thank you so much!!
It is not that expensive if you mind that I suffer many years!!!
@belle lee it is not that expensive!!!80$ I think !!!
I LOVE that you call us WARRIORS!!! Ive been battling daily symptoms so much along with going to school at the age of 50 and finally graduated yesterday and my schools mascot is "The Warriors"
You be surprised all them baby steps add up 1 day 1 step at a time it may feel dark but there's light at the end of the tunnel just like Peter Pan and neverland all you have to do is believe🙏
I’m traumatized by my palpitations which then causes me to have more palpitations. It’s a terrible cycle.
I hear you!!! I had to go have heart exams because of them. I get results on Wednesday
I have done the heart exams before and trust me, they come back fine. So dont worry.
I got traumatized by trembling and twitches. It was a month ago I had an allergic reaction to an antibiotic and I went pretty out of control I went to ER 4 times but I realized enough is enough it is anxiety and that I just will do what I need to do to get help and live with less and less fear. Ugh I know I keep goin to the past if only I took a different antibiotic.and I have to stop that but yes it’s hard but I can do it so if anyone is suffering just know that it may feel like you will have this forever but just know it does get better and it’s not your fault but you do have to work at getting yourself to a better place. It’s hard I know and I struggle too but we can do it just try to power through it. Surround yourself with loved ones or your pets and keep coming to this channel keep chatting with people like you. You are a warrior not a victim no matter how much your mind tries to convince you so. We are warriors!❤️
Leaha Hammond i have them after masturbation my heart is fine tho i guess its becuz of adrenaline as it is already high becuz of anxiety please answer me
Triple calm magnesium helped my palpitations go away
@theanxietyguy I have a history of anxiety that was brought on by my upbringing. I remember having debilitating anxiety as a kid to the point I would vomit regularly. However, I haven't had an episode since I was an adolescent. I am 26 now and have recently gone through some pretty big life changes. Thus, my anxiety and panic attacks have started up again. I am having such a hard time dealing with them especially since it is the first time dealing with them in my adult life. However, your videos are the only thing that calms me down in the middle of a panic attack. My most prominent fear is "going crazy" and entering psychosis from my anxiety. I work in mental health so I am constantly fearing that I will become one of my patients. I am always so relieved after watching your videos and having someone else to relate to. Thank you.
Me, when I felt something on my body like my vision changes light-headed or head pressure I feel like I'm having sickness and thinking much deeper all the symptoms, scared, fear that I will be like this or that.
I don’t trust my doctors - why? I want to believe them and my test results, but I don’t seem to be able to
I use to be the same way bro but you have gotta trust them. Why trust your negative thoughts that you know are the cause of all this?
NoSoup ForYou thankyou that is good advice
In my family we have a syndrome that involves heart problems !!!It was so difficult for me to believe that I don't have a heart problem but after some years of having or not palpitations I started control my pulse and it took me so many years to accept that I have anxiety !!!!Check Barry Mac Donagh and Mel Robbins!!!!You have to broke the pattern that you are gonna die or faint!!!personally I don't bother from symptoms but mostly that I kill my mind with that worry !!!I work on that!!!!
katerina katerinaki same here
Brother who died from a heart condition he went to the ER with symptoms then he died at home, but he was Marfan syndrome is a congenital disease, I don’t have the condition but I stress out it could happen to me a Misdiagnosis like it happen to him, it just horrible, now his death anniversary is this moth February I’m feeling all the chest pain, feeling off, it’s just horrible!
Because for health anxiety sufferers like us there seems to be a sense of safety in fear. Thing is there are way too many available info on the internet both good and bad that we can access easily which turns us into hypochondriacs or rather, cyberchondriacs.
Dear Dennis, I don't know how to thank you for your videos and teaching. I'm French leaving in France, so quite far ;). No one has been able so far to explain what was going on in my body for 6 years now. I've had terrible times with chronic dizziness and head pressure since my divorce, it's been really tough… I got of course all health examinations done with doctors jumping from one diagnosis to another with no result and only more anxiety… When I found by chance your videos very recently, it's been like a miracle: at last I understand what I have and what's happening to me. Those last years have been terrible and I was feeling lost and desperate even if I've always tried to think that one day things would improve. I am following all your recommendations and thanks to you, I have at last been able to get knowledge and understanding on what my body&brain are doing!! Thousand thanks from the other side of the Atlantic and sorry for my mistakes in English… I'm so grateful to get access to all your videos. THANK YOU DENNIS. Isabelle
Every time I feel like I’m making progress, I’ll have a setback. Whyyyy??🤦🏻♂️
Nico Toscani u have to completely accept don't call it a set back more of a learning curve to practice acceptance had hard as it is im in the same boat right now good luck
Nico Toscani I feel your pain
I know!!!!!! Ah!!!
So it’s been over a year since my last panic attack. Yes, I still feel anxiety frequently but no panic attacks. I read a fantastic book named The Panic Switch. I got it off amazon. It’s a very helpful book. I’ve read it 3 times lol. It helped me figure out some things that I was doing that was triggering my full blown panic attacks. I suggest you guys give it a try. However, what REALLY has helped me cope with anxiety is exercise. When I start feeling panic or anxiety I go for a run, whether it’s outside or on a treadmill. When we go into what is called “flight or fight” mode, running is EXACTLY what your body/mind is telling you to do. So you know what???? Do it. It’s not going to cure you over night but it’s going to help. The more and more you do it, the better it feels. I never thought I’d be a runner but I am now. Anxiety is under control, blood pressure is lower, cholesterol is lower and I lost 20lbs!!! Don’t sulk when it hits you! Kick some ass and go for a run! Play a sport! Punch a punching bag! Anything!!!!! It works! Yes, you’ll still get anxious but it becomes manageable. I hope this helps. I’ve been battling anxiety for years and I’m just starting to figure it out. ✌🏼
Nico Toscani hey hun I’m having it so mad gay I’m thinking some thing is wrong. I was doing so good for months then it’ll come back for a title but but now I’m dealing with the pulling up of the top of your head and the chest tightness and dizziness . All because I’m in school
I went to therapy, got meds, was feeling great for about 6 months, then i had a heart flutter :) now im back in the horrible cycle, and that causes more flutters and now here i am, afraid to sleep cause i know when i wake up its another day of it
Richiemylove The moment you hold up a white flag and surrender to the bodily sensations knowing in your gut they caused by a reaction and isn’t the root of something beginning, is freedom. ❤️
Richiemylove after you’ve had a cardiology exam, be at peace. I’ve had these for more than 25 years. They can be frightening, but you must take control of fear.
its been 6 months, maybe I should go for a test again :/
CONNORGIRL RILEY I get these flutters to. Twain the doctors have said there down to anxiety but I'm not sure.. you say 25 years of flutters an you say they can be fearfull. So that means we gotta live in fear for decades.. life's to hard in it.
Sigh same
Story time,
I worked in sales and during my last week at the job, one of the regular customers had passed in his sleep. At first, I was caught off guard and I thought I closed it out of my mind. The last week I had questions, like, what caused his death. A passerby, not even his family, mentioned he was complaining about stomach pains the week prior. The person that passed didn’t have the greatest diet and constantly downed Monsters energy drinks etc etc.
Today, I’m fighting what I think is health anxiety. The week after I left the job I felt indigestion constantly. I’m now understanding, thanks to this video, that my unconscious mind was making me feel as if I could be feeling what the customer felt the week prior his death. That week with the constant indigestion led to me not sleeping well, constantly fearing everything related to what I feel. I started getting random muscle spasms all over my body, which I usually get when I don’t get enough proper sleep due to stress. You can start seeing the cycle now.
As of this moment, I’m watching what I’m eating, I’m cycling and walking more. I still for some reason, wake up with what I feel are panic attacks. I wake up in the middle of the night with the urgent need to use the restroom and there my panic is induced. I’m looking for resolutions for my morning panic attacks. I also made an appointment with a doctor to get blood work done because the not knowing if I’m really sick or I’m causing this unconsciously is not helping.
I just wanted to share this because I know in the darkest of area, a small lot bulb can go a long way. This video helped me realized what was the event that might have caused my current anxiety/health anxiety cycle.
Joseph Dejesus I’ve seen you comment on a couple of posts. I’m at month 6 now. This last week has probably been the best and most “normal” Ive felt since I’ve had my first attack on August 8th. I’ve never gone to therapy although I am going to start March 7th. It has been a hard cycle. But the key is to recognizing it is as just that, simply, a CYCLE and fighting to break it. I used to have horrible intrusive thoughts (common with anxiety or OCD sufferers), googled every little response and thought I was going crazy and gonna die, etc...perpetuating my anxiety and endless fear. I know it’s easier said than done... and I have people that would say “just talk yourself out of it; stop worrying”, it would just make me mad and I wanna scream “ITS NOT THAT EASY!”. But it honestly can be, and that’s the trick... make a serious effort to think positive and talk to yourself during those trying times... tell yourself the opposite of what you think, and keep telling your self what you feel is a natural response and ride the waves... don’t give up hope.
Joseph Dejesus and YOU ARE stronger than it... the key is being SMARTER than your anxiety. You know it’s there, you know what it is, just have to understand how you are reacting to it is what perpetuates the cycle. If it helps, whenever I would get worked up, I just research anxiety, what it is, the core, and just read. Educate yourself on it. Not on “symptoms” or what you think could be wrong. You’ll come to find a lot of health care professionals have varying opinions on where it stems from, and how it can be “cured”. Everyone gets anxiety, but it’s how “we” are wired and our learned behaviors make us more susceptible to blowing it out of proportion and worrying it into something it’s not. It gets better I promise. I know it may be hard for you to believe right now, I was the same way. And I know exactly how you feel. For the last 6-7 months I felt disassociation , like a gray film was over my life, a severe depression. Days I had to fight to get up and go to work just because I didn’t want to be alone at home and at night with my thoughts. And I was the same. At night my mind goes crazy. Your mind tricks you into seeing things, hearing things, believing things that aren’t completely true when you’re under this amount of stress. First, focus on de-stressing yourself. I promise you, this helped me. I know it’s easier said than done, but try to be healthy and strive for an active healthy lifestyle!!!! Exercise, find hobbies, make goals to preoccupy you when times get hard.
HGHRCLB that is what’s going on with me I suffered a severe anxiety in 2018 and January 2019 but then in February i felt so good but again in march as he described some events triggers your anxiety same happens to me and I started feeling the symptoms but this time i know it’s just anxiety nothing else but i never had indigestion problems but know I’m facing them i have pain all around my abdomen and i feel bloated all the time for the past few days which is scaring me because the google said i have IBS or ovarian cancer or colon cancer bla bla but i know it’s nothing but a useless though because i just read it somewhere that people with stress and anxiety tends to have IBS disease so my mind is messing with me but after reading your comment i felt a relief
HGHRCLBR Hey! Thanks for sharing. I hope you’re doing better. There was this YOutuber that recently died of pancreatic cancer. She was young and had complained of simple on and off stomach cramps and indigestion. Ever since, I’ve been feeling intermittent stomach pains and cramps with indigestion and now I’m fearing I have the dreadful pancreatic cancer. I’m pregnant and I want to live for my child. I’m desperate to get rid of these thoughts that are absolutely taking away my consciousness.
Anyway, your story reminded me of mine.
I truly hope you’re better. I’m not going to give up until I am rid and free from this hell!
I went to the er for my first panic attack. Then Went to a cardiologist, all good. Then getting weird headaches, scan came back fine. Then Had blood work done, came back fine. I’ve really taken this as a opportunity to get as healthy as I can. Anxiety is down but not completely gone. But I’m the healthiest I can be.
I'm So tired from health anxiety 😢😢😢😢
Keep encouraging us plz
You helped me heal. For about 6 months I was in a horrid mess. I had very severe insomnia. I believe it was caused by trauma event with my sons girlfriend, but I had gotten over the event. What I didn’t know is that the anxiety from the way she made me feel was so bad that it was locked in my anxiety. It is my anxiety causing my insomnia. When I’d try to sleep I’d get pain in my hands and feet and didn’t feel tired. When i saw her from a distance yesterday, I didn’t feel anything. I slept good the night after. So thank you for this video. Your other video Guided meditation for anxiety, helps me fall asleep every time. Thanks you so much.
You are very welcome and thank you for sharing.
Youre always talking about "you can be who u want to be and get the life u want" but what if I don't know what i want to do? I've missed out so much in my life because of fear that I don't even know what i like to do. I have good memories of doing stuff that made me feel good like fishing for example but if I do those things now it will feel as if I'm trying to run from my feelings 😓
traktorflickan “find what you love and let it kill you” you are not giving yourself a chance to enjoy the things you use to love doing because of fear. Take the fear out of the equation and you will start loving those things again. (I understand easier said than done) there’s a phrase that goes “feel the fear and do it anyway” the more you repeat this the less fear is felt. It’s totally understandable the way you feel but you can learn to love those things again! Right now you are just blinded by fear. I hope you find your way 🙏🏼❤️
yoh.......I feel exactly the same. It is a hard place to be in...but I have got to the point..to say to myself...just try everything I think I might love...what is the worst that can happen.
Yep I have health anxiety. I've had headaches every day for over a week now 😩 your videos are really educating me!
Darcy O'Malley Great to hear. Enjoy the channel. ❤️
How are you feeling today?
Has your anxiety gotten better?
Im struggling with health anxiety myself.
I did that, too Darcy. My Dr said I have cluster headaches.
Hope Berry omg how you Doing
Darcy O'Malley I have headaches since august 2019 and it never goes away
FINALLY! someone who knows what u feel! someone who can tell me what to do when i feel like this! i just had a panic attack because i kept remembering about a traumatic moment. all the things i felt that day i felt today, all those things i said that day i said today! it was crazy! thank you ! i feel like i understand more about my anxiety :) this helped so much! definitely watching all the rest of your videos!
Tku when I think I'm ok, after I've prayed,here it comes, I'm crying as I listen to u its so unreal
This is my new favorite channel! Can't afford your program yet but your videos really help me viewing my health anxiety from another perspective. I will heal. Greetings from Indonesia ❤
Enjoy!
Currently sitting the a bath trying to feel through a panic experience. Your words have helped me so much. I know I don't need to go to the ER. I know my body is trying to tell me something. Thank you for your words. They are helping immensely.
Andrea Vee Such inspiration for others, you’re on the right track. ❤️
I just wanted to say Thank you! I feel a little better after watching this. My symptoms are still present..... & I’m recovering. Putting it out in the air.
Kip Naryco Very welcome enjoy the channel. ❤️
This is what i need and what I've been seeking! Anxiety has been ruling my life for too long!
Thank you so much for this. I was feeling kind of cryish watching this because I completely feel this at times. I’m so happy I’m not alone, and that I found you.
Its the worst feeling which is even very difficult to explain
Thank-you so much I'm finding if I listen to you often during the day my anxiety will eventually get better
I flippin love your channel you are an absolute legend helping others with anxiety. I got your program and it has seriously ended my anxiety. I will support your channel forever though with or without anxiety.
thank you Dennis everything you do is incredible for us Warriors, so much free content, I am so happy I invested in your program I am seeing shifts huge shifts in my old anxious patterns and the program is really keeping me accountable. you Rock. #morethananxiety
Dennis you are a true gem. I am also an anxiety sufferer and nobody understands the feelings If I say it to them. That doesn't matter though but whenever I listen to your videos I feel that you are speaking in my words what I am facing, And it gives me a hope and motivates me to the path of recovery. I don't know how much time it's gonna take but will try and will get over it. Thanks for the videos which you post. 😊
gaurav sharma Very welcome, thanks for the kind words. ❤️❤️❤️
@@TheAnxietyGuy1 dennis wanted to take up the course as well. Kindly help.
Tight chestness, shortness of breath, out of control feeling. I'm watching now. TY!
You will get there.
My brother died at 35 yrs old due a heart aneurysm he did had a congenital disease he did not treat properly, reason he died so sudden, after that episode of his dead I feel like I’m dying. I had a baby 2016,
2017 his death then I suffered Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, then after that I moved to The USA changing from one place to another, moving from one Job to another Job, let me clear you I’m a Nurse.
All these factors have triggered my anxiety into a point I feel light headed and can’t sleep properly.
i am also a nurse and had anxiety attacks..
Thank you Dennis great video, I am back with my health anxiety again these symptoms don't stop It feels like a dead end :-( I'm tired of this already!!
What symptoms?
I have recently realized I have, and have had, anxiety. Most recently I’ve had anxiety attacks but before that I would dwell on the past and worry so much about the future and about made up situations. In recent weeks I have been reflecting on what my brain is thinking and doing to put me in these intense moments of anxiety and it’s made me more anxious. I am just now starting my journey to recovering and understanding. Thank you for sharing the way you do and helping anyone you can.
Madelyn Fay I feel the same way
what about 24/7 dizziness for months?
I've had that. I've also had neck and head tightness. It does get better with time when you allow it to be there, try to fill your life with other things, and don't focus and ruminate about it. But I understand, it's really awful T_T
Yes! It's awful. It causes so much tension and headaches for me. I can't wait for my weighted blanket to get here.
@@allisong.4280 OMG, I will do this.. thank you, thank you.
Iv has it for 3 weeks now. It’s terrifying. It’s like my eyes can’t keep up with my brain.
pppd
I’m 17 I’ve had anxiety for a couple years but it’s never concerned me. About 4 months ago someone Put a gun to my chest and threatened to kill me, my body went completely numb and I convinced myself I was going to die. When I managed to get out of that situation my body was I fight or flight like I’ve never experienced before. I’m still questioning that day, I’ve been having panic attacks and my chest is tight 24/7 I’ve been to the hospital 3 times now and I’m scared to be in my body and I feel lost.
Found you today and YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please keep doing what you're doing. I've never been diagnosed with GA, my mom was never into therapy....actually asking for help at all lol. So i took after her (not really a good or bad thing just an is thing). I've kinda just found ways to "just be" and things say to myself when I feel like Im getting worked up. For a long time i didnt even know everyones brain wasn't as active as mine and that what I may be experiencing is Anxiety. But anywho...as of recent...Ive been going to some spiritual changes and getting freaking flooded and the ways I used to calm myself WEREN'T WORKING. So then I started obsessing about what could be wrong...which made things worse. But one moment at a time. I have to remind myself change is okay and stop being lazy with myself and start finding new things that work for me,
I love how you speak about anxiety. makes me feel less anxious. Sending a huge thanks!
Im back watching these classics 4 years later!
i can totally agree to the sensativity bit. One word or image can be enough for me to ruminate the whole day or evening.
I suffer from "imagined interactions" where I imagine these scenarios and conversations with people where everything goes wrong and I obsess over what I should say if these interactions happen. The problem is...they never happen! And yes, it is totally subconscious. Conquering these ideas is my biggest challenge in life.
Matty Gauthier omg this happens to me too, when I’m eating dinner with my family I just imagine something bad happening to me but it never happens. Health Anxiety really plays with our mind.
My friend passed away due to kidney failure now I'm everyday trying to convince me I'm not having these things , i only have kidny stones issue but nothing else still ......everyday any sensation in my body ...i always thought of getting blood tests and all.....( Although I already has taken all the reports and all is fine ) but still....it's terrible ...please guide something so I can comeout of all this things.......it's really really really painful thoughts
You have given me hope with this video. Sometimes I think I have too much anxiety or things wrong with me and there’s no solution. You made me link some things together. Thank you.
Im afraid of throwing up, so when i feel the tiniest feeling in my stomach or im nauseaus my heart rate goes to 130+bps and my stress goes up. It really sucks. Its hard to convince myself that im oke.
I get that too, it was really bad when I was younger where I get exactly like you but to the point where I throw up and actually get sick from it
There's a name for the phobia. I forget what it is. Maybe Google it. It might give you insight.
I have been struggling with anxiety for some months now,I must say this is awful...I am also going through perimenopause...I acknowledge this condition,but I will not let it consume me!!! With God,and this channel we all shall overcome in the Mighty Name of Jesus!!! Thanks for this channel😊
You're so very welcome, enjoy. ❤️
Watching this video alone made me calm down. Thank you ❤️
Very welcome.
7 months ago. I had a panic attack and thought that my lungs were failing and I had a extremely intense panic attack. I woke up and didn't feel right and it actually turned out I was sick and had walking pneumonia and began to spit up blood ect. I've had blood work multiple times,CT scans,stress tests, mri and every test came back good. Its become so bad that I was so disassociated from myself and the real world that I couldn't even comprehend my own thoughts or memories and can't remember 3 months of the 7. I think about the sensations I feel in my body being my ribs/ feeling like I can't breathe correctly and the list goes on. I have constant ringing in my ears all day because I was in the middle of a panic attack and blew my nose and heard a bottle rocket come out of my ear. I think about my health constantly even though every test has come back. I was having a multiple panic attacks everyday and couldn't even live alone. 7 months later im at my own home again,but I freak out alot and all I think about is whatever is going on. I'm so disassociated that I have questioned everything from the real world to being human to what it means to exist. To who my family is. Is this real life ect and the list goes on. I completely understand what it is happening to me,but I can't shake the nervousness. The feeling of being tense. I question everything. Is my body tense? Is it not? Is the pain alot or is it not? I had an upper GI and a colonoscopy and im 27 because I thougnts that what i needed and it all came back good. They told me I had high blood pressure,but the stress test was completely good. I think and fight myself on this all day. When I leave my home I get extremely panicky and now its happening at my house. I try to be normal and feel like it use to. I lived for 26 years without this problem so I say it will pass. I have not had many thoughts aside from my health. I feel like im fighting every second of every day to live and not drop over and die. I was diagnosed with chronic ptsd and panic disorder,but I tell people that I refuse to live like this,but I've yet to find a solution. I had a extremely shitty childhood which makes sense,but I do feel like im going insane or going to die soon. Idk. I've made alot of progress. 7 months ago I wouldn't be able to even type this message let alone be at my home by myself. But it still tortures me everyday. I use to love gojjg out and doing things and now I've been home for months afraid im going to die. I wake up and my first thought is health or pain in my body. I'm tense all day and I use to be sooo relaxed all the time. Calm. I feel like ill never come out of this,but im aware its a mental blocker and I know its me,but a part of me says what if? What if this is the time? Ehat if im wrong this time and it actually is a heart attack or a stroke or this and that? They say hypochondriac disorder,but the disassociated sensation and thinking really scares me. I don't know who I am anymore,but I know my name and how I grew up and things along those lines. But it doesn't feel real. I don't feel connected to myself or the world when before I was so deeply connected to everything around me... short version.
After my father passed away I really fell hard into health anxiety. It has been tough as I am constantly concern about any feeling in my body.
I think this is what I'm dealing with as well. My mother passed away a year ago from cancer and now I am constantly worrying and thinking something is seriously wrong with me, but I think it's just my anxiety... it's awful
Hi, everyone. I suffer from this, too. My father suffered from a long term illness for 12 years before he passed away when I was 15. So I’ve practically watched my dad dying for a long time. And all my life I’ve been really scared of illnesses and of death. Cancer. Heart failure. COPD. Kidney failure. These are what I’ve been afraid of one after another throughout my life. I’m scared of doctors and tests because deep down I believe they would DEFINITELY find something wrong with me. All my health tests usually turn out to give good results but I keep hopping from one symptom to another, focusing on the worst possibility and negative thoughts. I’ve just started realizing and accepting my health anxiety issue and I’m determined to fight it and eliminate it from my life for good. To everyone here, I wish you best of luck. You’re never alone. Thank you Dennis for these wonderful videos!
Aline Djayasukmana thank you for sharing, same here.
Same here not to long ago this year my brother passed away so now i feel as if im a reflection of him and all these symptoms just been coming at me which scares to thinking something gonna happen
Me too Igot this after my grandfather passed away😢
Had a loved one pass it brought out my fear and they passed from heart and that’s my biggest fear and now it’s 4am and here I am ! But I am changing my thought process and I’m not where I use to be which is a huge step but not yet where I want to be yet !!!!! It’s huge where I am now
Wow! This is so healing to me! It truly resonates for me. Thank you for the confirmation! I can’t wait to go through the rest of the videos! Thank you for this video! I am in the road to recovery.
Asha Fleming So very welcome. 🙏❤️
You are a life saver..god bless you with good health
Absolutely brilliant as always Mr Simsek
h lawson1207 Grateful 🙏
You totally make sense,,,,,, thankyou ,,,,,,
if its not a heart palpitation its a weird sensation in my head lol.
Raf Soto I get you 🤷🏻♀️
i also have weeeird sensations in my head , please describe it
Similar here
Terrible worse feelings ever!
Does it feel kind of like adrenaline/butterfly feeling in your head?
I have listened to you for a short time. Not sure how long maybe a month. Casually and without effort. I already notice I feel so much better. I am actually getting things done and reduced worrying by a lot -- maybe 70 pct. If feels so good and so freeing. Thank you so much. You understand. I didn't know what was wrong with me. I knew I was so different from others and couldn't figure out why. I wanted to control everything and rationally I knew that is not possible. I still spent hours agonizing over every detail of my life and researching everything before making a decision and still couldn't make a decision in case it was wrong. I think it's funny how you figured out exactly how many hours you spent on worrying. That is me. I have to know the 'details' for everything. I went to a psychiratrist for 10 years and 2 different Ph.D. in Psychology and NOBODY mentioned Generalized Anxiety Disorder. Just KNOWING that is what is wrong with me has relieved a lot of stress. Now when I have those odd feelings and worries I know what it is so I can let it go. I am going to buy your books but need audio so figuring that out because I don't have a way to download that. I do have health issues that are real. I have also had some strange symptoms that I can not figure out and it is a weird feeling like I 'm dying or feel toxic like poisoned or maybe eating unhealthy food. This has been for at least 20 years. The serious health conditions I have now cannot explain those feelings and the shortness of breath I've had since I was 28. I now have a-fib but at age 28 I didn't. You are a genius and I am so grateful.
everyday it’s a pain somewhere else, i suffer from joint pain and i feel like some days are better than others. but everyday i wake up and i don’t notice the pain i’m so relieved until i get up and the pain is somewhere else. it’s so exhausting and i feel like it’s a constant cycle of pain and desperation
I have health anxiety and I am working through it every day. I Qi making great improvements and I am excited to over come this!
The Art Show I’m excited for your transition. ❤️
This video made me feel so much better 🙏🏽 sending you many blessings!

This video will help - ruclips.net/video/MnT_40DF7F0/видео.html
I find it difficult to deal with normal health conditions. For example; I am recently getting over an ear infection which has left fluid in my ear, causes imbalance, dizziness etc. so while this may just be a normal sickness for some, my brain catastrophizes this and I tell myself “I’m going to feel like this forever”, “I’m scare it won’t end”, etc. and I will obsess and ruminate over it until the symptoms/sickness pass. I will tell myself I have something worse going on and it’s “not just an ear infection”, etc. I have horrible GAD, but I feel my focus is mainly on health, and I hate it. I think because I pay a lot more attention to what goes on in my body, that these experiences are harder for me, and I’m extremely sensitive and I feel everything more 😢.
Love this one Dennis. Will watch it over and over!❤️❤️
Enjoy Patty, how are you doing lately anyway?
I started tearing up while watching this truly hit close to home thank you
Jacob Cruz So very welcome. ❤️
Jacob Cruz aww Jacob you’re not alone my friend. Be well okay? Be easy on yourself
I watched you a few years ago while I was convinced I had a serious disease and I'm watching you again after I've recently noticed I'm having some high blood pressure. Of course my mind became a living hell over the past few days, thinking about how much weight I've gained and how I've let myself go and that I'm for sure going to die. I didn't even eat for a few days, really. I had sensations like crazy and I'm sure extreme anxiety isn't helping my blood pressure either. I went and saw a doctor, though. This video is calming me down and I'm probably gonna get some decent sleep. Thank you.
I went to Dr's and found out the heart arrhythmias were caused by an aneurysm in the atrial septum that has a shunt or PFO. Also I suffer a long qt wave. I've had panic and anxiety since 1995.
I got to a point were the symptoms and even the real issues don't bother me.
I fear the fear itself and worry about things like, "what if I am separated from Love and God"? "What if I have to go through eternity in torment"?
I had so much fear, trauma and criticism pumped into me has a child, I don't know how to exist any other way. I think you are right that it is scary to think about trying to move from what we know. I don't even know how, so, I'm so happy I found your youtube videos.
Yours are the most on point and informational ones I've seen. Some try to speek on the subject without first hand knowledge of actually having gone through it and it sounds like empty rhetoric.
I look forward to learning more from you!
Thank you :-)!
loved the messages in here. thank you so much. you make such a difference.
I am so appreciative of your videos and honestly just discovered you:) I am unfortunately a long time sufferer of health anxiety which has led to heavy bouts of depression. I have had therapy, am continuing medication and hoping I can move forward once and for all (I am dealing with (triggered by covid) depression and heavy health anxiety right now. This video has really inspired me to try to transition to something new.
I have health anxiety I see a neurologist for my symptoms and had a ct scan because I fear a brain aneurysm! I have symptoms in one spot in my head like tingling, pain, headaches all day everyday and wierd pains and I looked them up and it scared me even more I don’t trust my doctor or my scans I don’t know how to stop it I’m only 18 I’m starting to get so depressed I don’t know how to brake the cycle please help!
We’re in the same boat I’m going threw my first month of this exact feeling it’s weird to explain my doctor says it’s anxiety even tho I haven’t had tests done or seen a neurologist he says I don’t need to see one because it’s all anxiety I’m telling myself it’s anxiety hopefully I can learn to convince myself I’m fine , hope your doing better if also love some feed back on your journey
I ve been having all physical symptoms such as skin sensitivity, skin burning, twitching, pins and needles, random pains all over, tinnitus, chest tightness, breathing problems, dry itchy eyes, and many more. 😢😢 I ve gone through two divorces, 2 birth of my children, business closure, 3 surgeries, one medical problem, pandemic and long life health anxiety
Hi, I have an issue where Im constantly overbreathing and feeling like im gonna stop breathing and its really tiring and annoying. It's like constant hyperventilation and I never feel relaxed. Any tips? :)
This video is a good guide when it comes to anxiety and hyperventilation, enjoy: ruclips.net/video/94aVfVSbiSM/видео.html
Another fantastic video Dennis. Everything u said is true to a T. Working on this everyday thanks to you.
God bless u for helping so many of us out. I finally feel like warrior!
Anthonys Love it! Keep up the progress.
Thank u for the great talk. Useful. I recently watched ur videos and followed ur advice to feel better. Yet i allow myself to make a slight adjustment. Intuition is what we anxious people were made to silence due to suppression and repression. Intuition leads us if listened to. Our inner voice that was introjected is whats hurtful and attacks our inruitive skills. Many thanks for all the great work
thank you for expanding your healing to others
Ana Colangeli Very welcome. ❤️❤️
Am recovering from it day by day 🙏
Thanks for that. I have a feeling that my veins are cramping around my Heart an Arms......
Let this channel be your guide to healing :)
One of your best so far very helpful and very well explained by you so that people can actually understand whats going on not bombarded with huge words and talking a load of bullshit that nobody kns whats going on like some do so thanks dennis for your v well explained videos and your time you spend on putting these together i appreciate it we all do ❤❤
Olivia Thanks for the feedback Olivia. ❤️
I get all sorts of symptoms when anxiety/panic attacks show up. Dizzyness/heart palpitations/Nauseous/IBS. It's all terrible.
thanks for all your encouragement.. i see a counselor who weekly tells me ‘you will never be healed, you will always deal with anxiety- it’s about accepting it and working with it’ and i have to rebuke her in my head!
linds dem Counter that by asking her how certain people who’ve gone through the same pain have gotten to freedom themselves? This sort of narrow minded thinking is very much the biggest problem today, and the subconscious mind will accept any suggestion that gets accepted by others so beware. ❤️
I stopped seeing my counselor because he said instead of trying to fix your anxiety just meditate and that will really help you! Yeah that’s true but that’s all you as a therapist will help me with is to tell me to meditate and will go over it in session bull !
The Anxiety Guy yes! i’m looking for someone new now. i really do like her and she’s a great person but i don’t agree with her views on many things and while she’s helped me in some areas, it’s time to find someone with the same mindset and core values as me
Anabella ponce that’s amazing! thanks for that encouragement :) what do you feel was the biggest factor in overcoming it all?
That’s rubbish - anxiety is completely curable. Get a new therapist or listen to this guy more. Can’t believe you were told this - it annoys me to hear.
enjoying your program. It has helped tremendously!
My anxiety got worse ever since I had a ashtma attack .. I'm experiencing things I never did before
I’m having a bad anxiety right now.. heart not palpitating instead I feel weak can’t feel a thing and feel like I’m going to stop breathing and cease to exist. I think I’m dying from this anxiety 😭😭
I’ve been dealing with anxiety for about 4 years. I was able to control it before but now these past two weeks it’s been nonstop. Morning till night worst feeling everrrr! I hate it so muchh! I try to distract myself and all that but nothing works it’s hardd. But thank you so much for this video💖
Brenda Aguilar This channel should provide clarity. ❤️
bro your breakdown of this and understanding on this subject is amazing and refreshing...thankyou
