At 40 minutes- it’s one thing to be in distress. It’s another to be in distress and feel alone “ yes, I have felt sooo alone in my stuff for nearly all of my 58 years.
I’m 70 and I understand your feelings very much indeed. This type of recovery is often WAY beyond what MOST people can comprehend, so, this journey can be, and is lonesome. I would like to send you a BIG caring hug and say hi. I’m here too for you at this moment. I hope this brings you some comfort as we go through this together❤
After watching The Steady coach for 4 months, i started therepy for emotions, not acknowledging my feelings, being alone with not much social, interesting my symptoms of VM almost conpletely went away. Just getting some help. Learning to create nueropathways ect. I long believed this was a major part of my recovery. Was diagnosed with meniers then rediagnosed with VM.
Merci beaucoup ! Je vis au Québec, et je ne connaissais rien sur le IFS. J’ai des vertiges depuis 18 mois… cela va assurément m’aider. Je regarde vos vidéos avec beaucoup d’intérêts! Merci Dr Yo 🙏!
Jean, il y a un livre sur l'IFS en français ! Self Therapie - Jay Earley www.amazon.fr/Self-th%C3%A9rapie-D%C3%A9veloppez-leadership-harmoniser-psychologie/dp/2493605004/
Wow, every single one of your videos are jam packed with helpful, hopeful and compassionate tips, but this is one of your best. Thank you. ❤ PS, loved the puppy
Very glad Dr Yo that you raised the limitations or question around many parts or an energy is a very complex picture. It is definitely not a simple picture , it is very complex full of connecting and unseen parts that bend and twist together and are hard to access.
I unfortunately agree with above. So long and confusing. All over the place. Too many things are talked about. Can we just have IFS AND vertigo. And how Self could step in to heal.
Agreed! Super confusing. I thought leaning into symptoms and even fear and responding appropriately is necessary to recover. Analyzing what exactly is my threshold now, should I do xzy or not etc. seems counter-productive for me. I don't think a lot would change if I just stayed in the realm of oh this is a little uncomfortable, this is what my threshold is...
Doctor, please make a video about Vestibular Paroxysmia, I have a lot of anxiety, fear and stress but my case of dizziness is very different, my symptoms started out of nowhere and I wasn't afraid of them in the first two months. My episodes, unlike other disorders, usually last less than a second and happen several times repetidly and apparently no one with anxiety experiences it this way, im freaking out please help me!
So what are you supposed to do when you get hit with sensations while in face to face conversations with other people? I have a background of trauma, panic disorder/agoraphobia, etc. I'm now suspecting that I've had these stress induced symptoms wayyyy longer than suspected. These symptoms get so muddled with panic that its hard to separate and know how to create safety. Getting through my agoraphobia was basically me telling myself tough shit, lets go. Which worked. For a while at least. Now I'm getting side blinded by dizziness and other odd symptoms and I don't know how to get out.
Thank you for all your work. My rocking boat dizziness started 6 months into chronic pelvic pain. I was literally sitting in a hospital bed during covid when the horrid tinnitus turned on like a switch and the rest of the vestibular issues quickly followed. Over 3 years ago now and still suffering everyday with both dizziness and pelvic pain daily. How do you work on the dizziness when one of the major stressors is constant pain? My doctors feel that the vestibular issues started due to the crazy stress associated with the pelvic pain (which they also believe is stress related). Have you come across many people who believe their dizzy issues are caused by the stress of dealing with another health issue, particularly pain?
It is extremely common that our clients come to us with either previous mindbody symptoms like pain or are currently experiencing other symptoms. The more symptoms you have, the more likely it is that the entire problem has one single cause: a nervous system in a state of alarm. Calm the alarm, you deal with all the symptoms at once. It has taken you a lot of courage to get here and I am so sorry that you've been suffering so much. I believe in you and your ability to get better.
This was so great and packed with info. I’m slowly looking for an IFS practiciener in my area. I’m wondering how this actually goes in a session. Has anyone skilled provided examples of sessions online? Anyone in BC Canada know of a skilled IFS clinician with pain/dizzy experience.
We do a lot of this work in my group coaching sessions, but I haven't seen any sessions posted publicly online. I don't know of any therapists in BC but you should definitely check out ifsca.ca/ for their directory. Interview a few therapists to see if you like the person!
Susann, I may go on your waitlist. I am dizzy and constantly afraid of falling. I realize this is a mind/body thing. In addition to that, are you able to work anxiety in general? Though the least of my problems, I've developed social anxiety as well. Thanks!
The threshold story and kindest choice really confuse me and get me worried. The kindest choice to me means staying in the comfort zone and not expanding. I am not doing stuff I am terrified of but still challenge myself to do things that might feel uncomfortable and trying to get back to normal. Sometimes I get symptoms, mild ones, sometimes I get bad ones, I never know beforehand, it is really unpredictable. Mostly I can react calmly and not freak out about it. Sometimes symptoms are gone after a bit, on other days I get "hang-overs" the next day. But still - am I pushing too hard? Is this hindering my healing? It seems counter-productive to start overthinking about what exactly my threshold is and not overdoing it. I tried "pacing" and it totally made me worse because of the idea of overdoing things.
For what it’s worth, this is one area where I disagree with Susann. I don’t think that staying in your comfort zone is a good idea and from my experience, people do not get better unless they are willing to get uncomfortable. Maybe what she meant was learning to get comfortable with being uncomfortable, and I agree with that.
This is very informative video about migraine. I've suffered since 13, Imy migraines changed w age, I now believe I have vm, with little to know pain but all dizziness. The medication info is helpful, I never had chronic migraine but would be considered chronic now. I didn't really get much info about IFS work to help w migraine
CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) is the gold standard treatment and has been used successfully in some small studies on PPPD. I find cognitive tools to be extremely helpful, I just think people sometimes need a little more work than that. But for a success story that specifically mentions this, see Justin's ruclips.net/video/EDCTmQQhRI8/видео.html
@@TheSteadyCoachI have low iron and it causes dizziness. I have to wait for supplements to work and a very young part of me is panicking and wants relief and solutions NOW (I have health anxiety) 😢 I love your content. It’s very helpful
@the Steady Coach, does IFS help if you have lot of scary things that have happened that one has felt very alone in. Like bullying, for example, or family trauma, relationship trauma and trauma in a long bad marriage. I feel like I have a lot of stuff that would just like to explode out but that itself is super scary too. I KNOW these things are related quite directly to the dizziness. There are so many modalities. I don’t know how to figure out which one I should try to get a therapist for.
Absolutely. That is really what IFS does best, actually- working on how your brain interprets and relates to these kinds of situations. IFS is very gentle as well and will take things at your pace. I love using it, but AEDP, coherence therapy, ISTDP are also ones that are very effective. The most important thing is the relationship between you and the practitioner.
Im using the loving parent guide from ACA, it sounds very similar to IFS! Im an addict in recovery and suffer from dizziness and fibromyalgia, it feels like to me that all these modalities i use all integrate wonderfully becuase the problem is the same. FEAR! 😃
So the take away... look at the horizon, play with balance like a child, clasp my hands, get close to an uncomfortable threshold. I love your videos, but this felt like a lot of word salad. She told a lot of stories and metaphors, but how do you specifically apply that to a person with chronic dizziness? The answers she gave felt vague and open ended, as if I was speaking to a fortune teller or something.
Hi Michael, sounds like this way of thinking about it didn't really resonate with you. I'm more of a concrete thinker myself, so the way I think about this is that for dizziness recovery, we want to find ways of being in our present experience in a way that makes the nervous system feel safe. That's a skill that can be learned even by doing just small or unimportant activities that bring up discomfort. Then, that skill can be applied to bigger and bigger challenges.
Also, how is not crossing the threshold different from avoiding?
Susann was my coach in a Curable Group
How did you find her?

Confused: stay under threshold vs lean into the symptoms and don’t avoid activities that cause the symptoms. Can you clarify?
Thanks for this question. I think this video clarifies this point: ruclips.net/video/qrtN82wGDBI/видео.html
This episode was very confusing.. too many analogies without any specific list of things to do.
I unfortunately agree with above. So long and confusing. All over the place.

Almost all of our clients are also dealing with anxiety. I am sure Susann can help with that too.

Yonit, do you know anyone who has used Cognitive Processing therapy to recover?

I find cognitive tools to be extremely helpful, I just think people sometimes need a little more work than that. But for a success story that specifically mentions this, see Justin's ruclips.net/video/EDCTmQQhRI8/видео.html
Is it possible that a medical issue could cause symptoms but our “parts” can exacerbate them? Especially if we aren’t in any particular danger?
100000% that is what happens for at least half of people with dizziness in my estimation

What is curable? Do they say, is it to help you find a therapist?
It’s actually a treatment program in an app! There’s a link to it in the video description.
