Shaan can you help urgently - I have intrusive and suicidal thoughts because of benzo withdrawal- off meds 3 months / which a lot of people suffer - I am desperate to have these thoughts leave - I need help now .. today
I really appreciate you posting these videos and your free booklet. I haven't had a panic attack in a long time and forgot a lot of the tools to overcome it. It was a drug induced panic attack. Those helped immensely and I also learned some new tools. What would be the best avenue to support you monetarily? Thanks!
Shaan you are absolutely sensational. My experience and yours with panic attacks and anxiety were almost identical with a beautiful support group being my family. God has guided me towards you. And now I am closer to him and to being a perhaps better me than I was before. God bless you for doing all of this.
This is the first time I’ve heard someone explain this like you have. It comforts me to know everyone has that spike in the morning and also that I’m not doing anything wrong in my recovery. I too feel my best in the evening and I’m sleeping through which I never did before so I always wondered why every morning I wake with anxiety and I’ve been getting so frustrated over it. It’s great to know it’s normal and I’m not doing anything wrong with my recovery 😊
Perfect explanation. The slightest bump in the road with a sensitized nervous system is jarring. Know what is going on and accept as a temporary thing and stop resisting.
Really annoying when people say how long they have had this for, it gives new people more anxiety. Just focus on recovery it doesn’t matter how long you have had it everyone is different
Yesss like I love to hear ppl stories so we know we in this together but when I see 20yrs and this and that I’m like o damm and anxiety kicks in. So I try to avoid the comment section lol
It just sets me up for a horrible day when I wake up like that. I sometimes just lay in bed and cry that I can’t do this anymore. I’m often reluctant to go to sleep knowing what’s waiting for me.
Just let the symptoms. Trust Shaan guys. I'm battling anxiety for a month and I'm doing ok now. Yes a month. Just a month and now I'm doing better. I'm only dealing with the setbacks now but I'm doing better than before. Don't fight it, just learn how to live with it. Surrender and It will just go away.
This was me 10 years ago in 2014 when I was 22. Oh my gosh, 2014 was probably the worst year of my life, every morning I would wake up and feel panicky, my muscles ached terribly, My stomach felt like it was in a knot, I was never hungry , I would dry heave, and I would have to race to the bathroom because my bowels were loose all the time. It was horrific. But 10 years later, I look back and I’m so proud of how much progress I’ve made. I’m blessed I found God and I wake up feeling refreshed and excited to start my day. You can conquer this everybody! ✝️
Thank u so much for being u and making these videos I thought I was the only person in the whole world feeling what I was going through I’ve only just stumbled across your videos yesterday and I already feel like I’m making progress and on Friday I’m going to be joining your program
Get up immediately, do 5-10 minutes of brisk walking and/or calisthenics. No coffee for at least 4 hours after awakening. High fat beverage like whole milk, kefir, or whipping creme. Then, 1 hour of sun exposure or...if necessary, a sun-lamp during this rising period.
I’ve dealt with anxiety for around 10 years and it does get better! Yes I still get anxiety but less strong, it’s shorter and I know how to deal with it. Usually if I get morning anxiety now it’s after falling into a small panic/ anxiety attack. Then it feels like my nervous system is super sensitized and it takes a bit to heal it again. Now it usually lasts 5-7 days for me. I accept it, I immediately go on a morning walk, I try to breathe, if my mind starts running I go back to focusing on my breathing 100 times if that’s what it takes. I do normal life as best as possible but instead of a full apartment deep clean, maybe I’ll just clean the kitchen. I adapt it and try to not overwhelm myself. Be kind and loving with yourself!!! And go to bed early! Drink some tea, read a book and go to bed so that when you get woken up by that anxiety you at least had a few good hours of sleep. I’m “only” 29 now and have gotten my anxiety under control so much better (even got off my anti depressants) and just comparing it to 2 years ago it’s insane improvements I made. You can too! You do not have to struggle like this forever ❤
You are so right . I have anxiety when driving and morning I am more scared . Worst is the scary sensations when behind the wheel . I just can’t get out though I love to drive .have beeen suffering for the last 7 yrs . So dependent on family members to take me places . Any guidance in this area . Thanks Shawn for this videos . You are an angel 👼. Lately at least I try to drive near distances . Your tips are helping me . 🙏🙏
Don't depend on family members.... Just go out and try slowly to back to ur normal routine as u were before..... Do everything even if u feel uncomfortable and scared.... Let the thoughts run in ur mind,, let the symptoms be there,, leave every coping techniques (supplement,oil etc etc) Try to act like normal... Don't get involved with ur thoughts (overthinking),, try to socialize urself,, make healthy routine,, don't sit alone and think for long hrs.... Ur nervous system will desensitizee again... U will overcome... Watch shaan's video to understand more better... And learn to stop overthinking...
I had sooo many realisations from watching this video. I didn't know your CNS can get sensitized from constantly being under stress, I didn't know morning anxiety was a thing even though I've been going through this for years (including this morning), I didn't know doing google/RUclips searches on anxiety when having an attack is a norm with those that suffer from anxiety (that's how I discovered this video) 😄. Sir, you are doing the lord's work, I just got some snacks, I'm about to binge on your content. Thank you so much!
What he said is so true. When I would get morning anxiety. I would spend all day thinking about it. Then i focused and work, daily task, exercise and just tey not to focus on the doom.
Me, racing and sweating hands and feet. Sick of it even if its not every morning it comes and I hate it. Its like I forget it happens and have to go through the cycle all over again all because I have breaks in between. GRR
I am working with A.C.T. , and it's been wonderful . So there's nothing different to be done for Anxiety when it's Morning , u accept it in the Morning as well .🎉
Thank you brother. God bless you. I have Heavy heart sadness hope less ness heart beat faster overthinking negative fear of death heavy head brain fog want to cry all these heavier in the morning I’m starting to wake up around 5am now I wake up feels this strongly
I wake up every day and I’m very anxious I say thank you for trying to protect me but I don’t need your help rn and then I go on with my day being anxious no matter how bad the symptoms get I let them be there and I re focus back to what I’m doing some days it’s easy some days it hard but I understand there is set backs and in time this too shall pass
A big thank you for this explaination. I help me understand the rease why I feel my anxiety almost exclusively at the morning. Thank again for your work 🙏🏽😁
I can not do this much longer , 61 years so many modalities thousands of dollars thousands of hours meditating praying . I just want to wake up and feel normal again. Yea I know I'm stating the obvious bit once again I am waking up with dread I cannot explain.
@@annettesonnenberg7606I know that feeling spasms in mouth throat and nose hitting me so hard I don’t know wat to do brush teeth it hit my hard my mouth is stuck and can’t eat swallow chew or saliva no sleep can’t function I Prefer death over this I don’t wat the difference is 30 meds and nothing
Everyone’s anxiety in the morning typically comes as short of breath , chest tightness , or the feeling of vomiting and going to the toilet, it happens every morning to most of anxiety individuals, but cortisol was what causes stress hormones all throughout the day, and yes it makes you overreact to little body pain or numbness but I’ve been doing exercises everyday to distract that’s stress and when I’m not doing anything I meditate most of the day and not focus on anything else, it helps a little bit but one step at a time.
PLEASE, PLEASE can you make a video explaining to siblings and father how to help the sufferer and how to understand her/him???? They don’t understand and think that it’s all an exaggeration. It’s awful feeling that your family are the worst supporters. 😢😢😢😢
I know how you feel. I can't talk to my husband. He says when I met you you never had thos problem...that was 18 years ago. I had anxiety but not like like. I wake up and feel doomed 😢
I have a Solution for this , a good one - YOU DON'T NEED THEM TO UNDERSTAND , YOU ALLOW THEM TO THINK THAT YOU ARE OVER-EXAGGERATING , U NEED NOT CONVINCE ANYBODY HOW MUCH U R SUFFERING. pls trust me , this helps a lot in Recovery .
Ugh man I really always thought this was only me. Not every single day but dam near close I wake up feeling sick to my stomach and like the world is ending. But for me it always seems when it’s when I have to get up early (I.e waking up from an alarm) where it is the absolute worst. My symptoms start going away pretty quickly which I guess I’m lucky for but for me I’d say it’s the first hour to hour and a half of the morning is pure hell. But if I get up naturally early and it’s a day off or something it’s not nearly as bad. Idk 🤷 lol just nice to know that it’s not very uncommon which almost made me feel better this morning alone!
I never even knew what the heck cortisol even WAS until about 20 years ago hearing some local NY radio commercials about some stress vitamin aid or product or therapy service, that kept running all day long, talking about "cortisol, it's a nasty little stress hormone that bla bla bla bla...." and I got the gist of what it can do to you. But this vid. gave me a better handle on it. I do get some minor morning anxiety, but usually once I'm out and in the car and on my way to get breakfast at a familiar local place, I calm down and settle in and have less anxiety. I make sure these days I wake up pretty early, for some reason the earlier the better even though I don't work FT anymore. Wake up early and you can fake out your nervous system and giver yourself more time to kind of rebound. Morning anxiety for me was much worse decades ago getting up super early for work and all that, commuting to NYC or in NYC. Oh man. But usually I was able to get into that routine. Sometimes years later, as I had more issues, it was more difficult.
I have known 3 people in my family that had debilitating anxiety and have since completely recovered it takes a lot of work though but it can be attained
@chrissiecasson700 absolutely. Anxiety itself is a human emotion and can never be cured, but every single person alive has it. People like us who have disorders are just heightened due to stress, etc, so we have to do the work.
When I wake up I'm fine, but as soon as I try to move or get up it starts. My heart is racing so hard that it takes me several hours to get up. I understand that you should get up, but how should I do that? Does anyone else have this?
Within the introduction you explained how I’ve felt for years and I haven’t been able to. Thank you for putting out this information to us and making me feel that I am not so alone.
Can you please do a video explaining the impending doom feeling? What did it feel like for you? idk how to explain this feeling. It’s like this intense fear, for no reason, like a very scary feeling building inside like a nightmarish feeling like you want to scream and cry and with it some nausea, can anyone relate? Does this go away?
@Gamer sonny Forever mine doesn’t come with physical symptoms other than the nausea. It’s like a fear of fear idk how to explain. I don’t think anything will happen other than a feeling I need to run away and scream and cry
@@k-drama_kpop_fan this particular symptom has gotten much better. I had to learn how to stop fearing it and associating the feeling with fear. Also, I suggest getting your iron labs, ferritin checked, and electrolytes. If any of those are low they can contribute to anxiety
I had an adrenal tumor that was raising my baseline cortisol level. They did a thing called a suppression test that showed my adrenal was off line. The adrenalectomy resulted in the excision of my paranoia and rage. I am now experiencing anxiety and it’s turning out to be more friend than foe. No more fright or flight just a deeper sense of awareness.
you should do a video about trigger words,í could be fine and dandy and í hear certain words and boooom!rise in heart palpatations,panic attack eminent!
Try exposure therapy with trigger words. My daughter LDS therapist turned her trigger words into a game of go fish. Write down the words on index cards and turn it into a game. Make it fun and try laughing until the words have don’t give you the same reaction.
Same here words with trigger my anxiety words like going crazy, hearing voices , seeing things , or just seeing some who is going crazy , I thinking don't want to be like them
I do understand every video, but because of the dpdr I forget my response to the anxiety. I forget to 'let it go' I get the axiety and then just dont know what to do beceause of all the things I forget
Do you know anything about nocturnal attacks? They wake me up what used to be infrequently but now regularly a few hours after falling asleep every night I wake bolt upright. Super hot heart racing disorientation and takes hours to calm and back to sleep. So hard to have your wits about you and tell yourself not to react when you're half asleep. 🙏🙏
I had this! It's def the nervous system... It's always ON. And when you lack sleep it makes it worse Before bed it helps a lot to take VitB1 and magnesium. It's nervous system food. Any health store will have these. It will help u sleep...lack of sleep makes your body even more tense and wake up constantly middle of the night. I used to have this. Now it's just morning anxiety. Every a.m like clockwork...fucking annoying. But I do sleep now finally about 6-7hrs. But used to be 4. So it's def helping.
@@liztowers2058 This is so true! Happened to me for 2 years. Working on my nervous system, meditation, minimizing carbs, taking nutritional yeast (B1) and magnesium helps a ton.
Michelle that's when mine started, anxiety in menopause is very common...who knew?? Trying to sort the right HRT etc , it's scary, I'm so glad I've found shaan to help explain things...how are you now??
Here is something that helps: I seem to have very high cortisol levels in the morning waking up to panic and anxiety that wants me to crawl out of my own skin, BUT I have started taking Ashwaghanda and it really seems to work well for me. The only issue is that it lowers my blood pressure and makes me feel faint or lightheaded.
Does anyone have symptoms like waking up dry throat ,lightheadedness Numbness of head,feeling of unfamiliarity or dpdr,hard to focus?,feels like your going to forgot everything
It's interesting that you mention coffee. Until fairly recently I used to drink coffee in a 'normal' sort of way, and I don't remember even getting the 'buzz' from it that is often talked about. Yet since I retired about 8 years ago I've found that a single mouthful of coffee after 20 minutes or so will make me feel most uncomfortable - nervous and jittery. Nowadays I occasionally risk a small cup of decaff, and even that makes me feel slightly peculiar. This then is just part and parcel of an over-sensitised nervous system?
Are there ways to prevent morning attacks from appearing every day? I’ve been experiencing them for the past 42 days and it’s brutal! It wake me up every morning. Dreaming about a day that it doesn’t wake me up at 5-6 AM. Please advise if you found a way to prevent them from coming!😢
Congratulations! You have this only for 42 days and you find this video and so you can work on it! I'm over 8 years now in this - every night and every morning... I found this approach just yet... so for me it would take a bit longer because of the long duration, but I believe that you can heal this in a very short time! Be blessed and healed asap!
Wake up with bad anxiety and fatigue for usually a month and then a month without and repeat. My dread of going to bed may be contributing. Update: last night I couldn't go to sleep till 2:30am, I made myself get up at 7:30 am and today I don't feel like I'm going to die.? The continuous waking and going back to sleep is very hard on me. I do have sleep apnea.
I was taking sertraline for 3 years. Got off a year ago. The symptoms came back & seem worse that before. I am not over thinking r anything. I am just not sure why my nervous system isn’t relaxing. I thought things would’ve gotten better. That hasn’t been the case. @ least not yet
That happens for a lot of people who stop those kinds of medication. Anxiety comes even worse than before. If you can get through it it should become less severe over time
I have noticed I get these panic attacks when i don't eat enough. Can my nervous system tell me to go and eat something when i get this in the morning? That im starving.. have an eating disorder.. and it gets worse during stress.
I can't eat and I know my mind is telling me I have to eat or I'll die and yet I have no appetite and my neck and throat hurt so bad that I can't swallow
@@k-drama_kpop_fanI have so much to share throughout my journey. Been two months for me and it’s been so hard but I’m slowly getting better. Do you have an IG or any other platform I can directly message you through ? Maybe we can make an anxiety/panic disorder discord and we’ll keep tabs on each other so we don’t feel alone in this.
@@k-drama_kpop_fanI found your comment else where saying you’re cold intolerant ever since the panic attacks. Oddly enough I’m the complete opposite. I’m heat intolerant and anytime I feel heat to my maximum threshold (which isn’t that high) I get light headed, dizzy and feel like I will feint. I can’t even eat hot soup or take hot showers because of it. This has really changed my life for the worst but I’m continuing to battle it. Just know you are not alone my friend.
I really appreciate your work can you make a video about getting panic attacks and high anxiety in close places like at shower and especially at hair dresser a lot people suffering high anxiety in close places why is it close places ?
Because you feel like there's no escape...that's why. But again. It's just there the anxiety. It has absolutely nothing to do with where you are. Your nervous system just thinks it's a threat. Hard to leave when you're in a hair dressing chair. . and hard to leave when you're in a shower all wet.... .so it's the feeling of not being able to run if u need to But again, there is no threat. It's all just our over stimulated nervous system making us feel like it's dangerous . But it's not. At all . Watch ALL his videos. You'll understand that too.

But for me it always seems when it’s when I have to get up early (I.e waking up from an alarm) where it is the absolute worst. My symptoms start going away pretty quickly which I guess I’m lucky for but for me I’d say it’s the first hour to hour and a half of the morning is pure hell. But if I get up naturally early and it’s a day off or something it’s not nearly as bad. Idk 🤷 lol just nice to know that it’s not very uncommon which almost made me feel better this morning alone!
I never even knew what the heck cortisol even WAS until about 20 years ago hearing some local NY radio commercials about some stress vitamin aid or product or therapy service,
that kept running all day long, talking about "cortisol, it's a nasty little stress hormone that bla bla bla bla...." and I got the gist of what it can do to you. But this vid. gave me a better
handle on it. I do get some minor morning anxiety, but usually once I'm out and in the car and on my way to get breakfast at a familiar local place, I calm down and settle in and have
less anxiety. I make sure these days I wake up pretty early, for some reason the earlier the better even though I don't work FT anymore. Wake up early and you can fake out
your nervous system and giver yourself more time to kind of rebound. Morning anxiety for me was much worse decades ago getting up super early for work and all that,
commuting to NYC or in NYC. Oh man. But usually I was able to get into that routine. Sometimes years later, as I had more issues, it was more difficult.
Been having it for 26 years its trouble and everybody around me dont understand whats going on i just need to get away from people that dont help me.
Just thank you for this video!!!
I am hoping that people that say anxiety can be healed isn’t selling a dream.
I have known 3 people in my family that had debilitating anxiety and have since completely recovered it takes a lot of work though but it can be attained
Really @@Push2DaLmtReally?
@chrissiecasson700 absolutely. Anxiety itself is a human emotion and can never be cured, but every single person alive has it. People like us who have disorders are just heightened due to stress, etc, so we have to do the work.
I have it really bad cant stop crying every day is horrible 😢
When I wake up I'm fine, but as soon as I try to move or get up it starts. My heart is racing so hard that it takes me several hours to get up. I understand that you should get up, but how should I do that? Does anyone else have this?
Within the introduction you explained how I’ve felt for years and I haven’t been able to. Thank you for putting out this information to us and making me feel that I am not so alone.
really Good
I used to have this and now that is starting to be better but I am having exhaustion and anxiety starting in the early afternoon. 🤷🏻♀️
The intrusive thoughts and feeling like I’m present and then not it’s what’s killing me
Patiently waiting
Thaankkk you for making this video ❤️
Can you please do a video explaining the impending doom feeling? What did it feel like for you? idk how to explain this feeling. It’s like this intense fear, for no reason, like a very scary feeling building inside like a nightmarish feeling like you want to scream and cry and with it some nausea, can anyone relate? Does this go away?
yes ive got this, its so fruatrating, wish my body would just chill
@Gamer sonny Forever mine doesn’t come with physical symptoms other than the nausea. It’s like a fear of fear idk how to explain. I don’t think anything will happen other than a feeling I need to run away and scream and cry
Me everyday!
Hey how are you now I'm also suffering from this
@@k-drama_kpop_fan this particular symptom has gotten much better. I had to learn how to stop fearing it and associating the feeling with fear. Also, I suggest getting your iron labs, ferritin checked, and electrolytes. If any of those are low they can contribute to anxiety
Morning is the hardest for me.
I had an adrenal tumor that was raising my baseline cortisol level. They did a thing called a suppression test that showed my adrenal was off line. The adrenalectomy resulted in the excision of my paranoia and rage. I am now experiencing anxiety and it’s turning out to be more friend than foe. No more fright or flight just a deeper sense of awareness.
So good it is effective
you should do a video about trigger words,í could be fine and dandy and í hear certain words and boooom!rise in heart palpatations,panic attack eminent!
Oh my goodness trigger words. I used to be watching TV or a RUclips video then hear a word then it would trigger my anxiety and I’d switch it off.
@@queenchiomaofficial switch what off? the t.v or your anxiaty?
Try exposure therapy with trigger words. My daughter LDS therapist turned her trigger words into a game of go fish. Write down the words on index cards and turn it into a game. Make it fun and try laughing until the words have don’t give you the same reaction.
@@kerinac1909 absolutely will do💪
Same here words with trigger my anxiety words like going crazy, hearing voices , seeing things , or just seeing some who is going crazy , I thinking don't want to be like them
Thanks Shaan ❤
Cheers Shaan.
I do understand every video, but because of the dpdr I forget my response to the anxiety. I forget to 'let it go' I get the axiety and then just dont know what to do beceause of all the things I forget
Do you know anything about nocturnal attacks? They wake me up what used to be infrequently but now regularly a few hours after falling asleep every night
I wake bolt upright. Super hot heart racing disorientation and takes hours to calm and back to sleep. So hard to have your wits about you and tell yourself not to react when you're half asleep.
🙏🙏
I had this! It's def the nervous system... It's always ON. And when you lack sleep it makes it worse
Before bed it helps a lot to take VitB1 and magnesium. It's nervous system food. Any health store will have these. It will help u sleep...lack of sleep makes your body even more tense and wake up constantly middle of the night.
I used to have this. Now it's just morning anxiety. Every a.m like clockwork...fucking annoying. But I do sleep now finally about 6-7hrs. But used to be 4. So it's def helping.
@@liztowers2058 This is so true! Happened to me for 2 years. Working on my nervous system, meditation, minimizing carbs, taking nutritional yeast (B1) and magnesium helps a ton.
How do you fix it? Are you okay now? I also can't sleep properly at night and idk why I wake up
Going through this now...how many months until this got corrected?
I started going through morning anxiety when I was going through menopause.
Been 3 years.
Michelle that's when mine started, anxiety in menopause is very common...who knew?? Trying to sort the right HRT etc , it's scary, I'm so glad I've found shaan to help explain things...how are you now??
I wake up with server anixety and my dysregulated nervous system
Here is something that helps: I seem to have very high cortisol levels in the morning waking up to panic and anxiety that wants me to crawl out of my own skin, BUT I have started taking Ashwaghanda and it really seems to work well for me. The only issue is that it lowers my blood pressure and makes me feel faint or lightheaded.
Do you take in the early morning or night?
Take half.
What about if you have DPdR in Mormon and don’t wake up with a jolt ? Still have anxiety ? Does everyone have the jolt ?
Thank you
Does anyone have symptoms like waking up dry throat ,lightheadedness Numbness of head,feeling of unfamiliarity or dpdr,hard to focus?,feels like your going to forgot everything
Yeah me too let’s hang on together.
Dry throat is the most annoying part
It's interesting that you mention coffee. Until fairly recently I used to drink coffee in a 'normal' sort of way, and I don't remember even getting the 'buzz' from it that is often talked about. Yet since I retired about 8 years ago I've found that a single mouthful of coffee after 20 minutes or so will make me feel most uncomfortable - nervous and jittery. Nowadays I occasionally risk a small cup of decaff, and even that makes me feel slightly peculiar. This then is just part and parcel of an over-sensitised nervous system?
Are there ways to prevent morning attacks from appearing every day? I’ve been experiencing them for the past 42 days and it’s brutal! It wake me up every morning. Dreaming about a day that it doesn’t wake me up at 5-6 AM. Please advise if you found a way to prevent them from coming!😢
My symptoms are in my eyes dont if its blurred or double vision or my eyes cant focus this is what i feel the moment i open my eyes in the morning
@@rubenkentmaneclang3875same mine is all day
Congratulations! You have this only for 42 days and you find this video and so you can work on it! I'm over 8 years now in this - every night and every morning... I found this approach just yet... so for me it would take a bit longer because of the long duration, but I believe that you can heal this in a very short time! Be blessed and healed asap!
Was gone for years, now back in the morning.
Shaan you're such a g
Wake up with bad anxiety and fatigue for usually a month and then a month without and repeat. My dread of going to bed may be contributing. Update: last night I couldn't go to sleep till 2:30am, I made myself get up at 7:30 am and today I don't feel like I'm going to die.? The continuous waking and going back to sleep is very hard on me. I do have sleep apnea.
Can you do a video on how to accept anxiety
I was taking sertraline for 3 years. Got off a year ago. The symptoms came back & seem worse that before. I am not over thinking r anything. I am just not sure why my nervous system isn’t relaxing. I thought things would’ve gotten better. That hasn’t been the case. @ least not yet
That happens for a lot of people who stop those kinds of medication. Anxiety comes even worse than before. If you can get through it it should become less severe over time
Hey how are you now
But did you had a stressful situation?
Why is it so bad mornings and afternoons and get better in the evening. Its debilitating 😢
I m so exhausted
I have noticed I get these panic attacks when i don't eat enough. Can my nervous system tell me to go and eat something when i get this in the morning? That im starving.. have an eating disorder.. and it gets worse during stress.
Hey how are you now I'm also suffering from this
I can't eat and I know my mind is telling me I have to eat or I'll die and yet I have no appetite and my neck and throat hurt so bad that I can't swallow
Happening to me for almost 4 months and it is getting worst everyday.
4 years here, 16-20, panic attack induced, its hard :/
@@polobeats1701have you tried SSRI’s yet ?
Hey how are you now I'm also suffering
@@k-drama_kpop_fanI have so much to share throughout my journey. Been two months for me and it’s been so hard but I’m slowly getting better. Do you have an IG or any other platform I can directly message you through ? Maybe we can make an anxiety/panic disorder discord and we’ll keep tabs on each other so we don’t feel alone in this.
@@k-drama_kpop_fanI found your comment else where saying you’re cold intolerant ever since the panic attacks. Oddly enough I’m the complete opposite. I’m heat intolerant and anytime I feel heat to my maximum threshold (which isn’t that high) I get light headed, dizzy and feel like I will feint. I can’t even eat hot soup or take hot showers because of it. This has really changed my life for the worst but I’m continuing to battle it. Just know you are not alone my friend.
And how to deal with anxiety
I have constant internal tremors,twitches & fatigue throughout the day I go to be and wake up drenched in sweat.😩
I really appreciate your work can you make a video about getting panic attacks and high anxiety in close places like at shower and especially at hair dresser a lot people suffering high anxiety in close places why is it close places ?
me too
Because you feel like there's no escape...that's why. But again. It's just there the anxiety. It has absolutely nothing to do with where you are. Your nervous system just thinks it's a threat. Hard to leave when you're in a hair dressing chair. . and hard to leave when you're in a shower all wet.... .so it's the feeling of not being able to run if u need to
But again, there is no threat. It's all just our over stimulated nervous system making us feel like it's dangerous . But it's not. At all . Watch ALL his videos. You'll understand that too.
Waking up with the jolts or zaps. Ughhhhhh Scares the heck out of me.
Yes this happened to me too
@@neveshizzle me too 😭
Me too..😢😢
After wake up i feel hyperventilation and racing heartbeat
Does this still work when OCD and meds are causing anxiety ?
Does anxiety and blood pressure go hand-in-hand
Yes
Of course!
Don’t see the link
Does coffee aggrevate anxiety?
Yes
Yes!
Yes
