The advice in this video is so deep and wholesome.. Touched the core of my heart... At last there is someone who talks about these things ....Thank u Matt from the other side of the planet
You are an antisocial worker.
You only speak about individual responsibility.
Its never about society in your videos.
You arent helping people, you are possibly even harming them and putting them under pressure
That’s interesting? I’m sure there is something to criticize the mental health profession about, but Matt’s specialty is with OCD in individuals who actually aren’t in danger but are suffering from anxiety and fear. A lot of people do have real things to fear and are oppressed by society but that’s not what this video is addressing.
Like always very🎉 thankful for your insights , from Sevilla, Spain, the world needs persons like you
Thank you Matt! Your videos really help me when I am about to spiral.
I’ve been told “You just need to pray more and have more faith, then you’ll be healed “.
Me too..
Me too! I always been told “if you’re anxious, it’s not from God” or “if you’re anxious, you don’t have enough faith in God” it wasn’t until I discovered I had OCD that I felt freed from that
The finger cut was my AHA moment wow
This is something I’ve thought to myself, even early on with recovery. I saw the OCD and Anxiety as a scab, what happens when you keep picking a scab? It will start bleeding and the healing process starts again, and again, and again.
So how does a scab heal? You leave it alone. How do you break free from this cycle of anxiety? You keep living.
For me, this is easier said than done because for the past 4 months the recovery process has been my number 1 priority in life. And I guess that’s the paradox of OCD and anxiety, you want nothing more in life than to go back to your old life without this disorder but in the process you remain stuck because that’s what you are focused on.
Yep that perfectly describes my biggest challenge as well, I understand logically the process and what I must do. But at the same time I value my well being and want to recover - so I check to see if it's gone, I focus on symptoms, I read on it and many other compulsions with the best intention - but it keeps the cycle going. Then I catch myself after weeks of not seeing progress and it's clear to me why that is.
I'm trying to get to a place of acceptance where I am ok with my current state and no longer trying to manipulate it into some different state and become completely outcome independent, like prioritizing self-care not to get rid of anything but just because it's what I want to do and I know it's good for me. But yeah I always end up weaponizing self-care to eliminate anxiety, teaching my brain further that anxiety is a big deal we must be afraid of.
Unlearning \ forgetting \ teaching our brain that something is insignificant and not important does indeed require from us to leave it alone and shift our focus on things that are more important (such as living our lives), on a positive note I'm convinced 100% that patterns can be broken :) keep going, same goes for me, it's a practice!
Great video
