I found you through a reddit user. I had trouble with managing my emotions and collecting myself, but when I watch your videos, it really feels like you're sitting there with me and your words help me rationalize my silly and negative thoughts better. Thank you.
This makes me so happy!! I really appreciate such kind words and am so glad I could help😁
What's wrong with being right?
It’s great when it doesn’t make us miserable
@@workinonitwithdr.a8091 How can you be miserabIe when you're right?
This was a super helpful video. Thank you!
You’re so welcome! Very glad it helped :)
((((((((((
So well explained 👏🏼👏🏼 🇮🇳
Thank you for this beautiful comment :)
Great tips! I definitely want to try a new class this year, both for my own enrichment and to meet new people!
Thank you! That’s a great idea I’m behind you all the way!
I realized I was smiling when I finished watching the video. That's worth a lot. Thank you.
That’s so beautiful, thank you for that !
Getting over the fear of bugs as I settle in my new apartment and saw a cockroach after two months of moving. I’m going to try this hierarchy exercise. Thank you!!! What’s the science behind “altering” what your brain thinks about the phobia? Do you have articles about this that you like/suggest? I’m really nervous about the bugs I might see in the future. 🥲
I’m so so happy you’ll give this a try, make sure you’re patient and increase the length and intensity of the exposures over time. Also CONGRATS on your apartment, what an exciting new adventure. You’re not quite altering what your brain thinks of it you’re dulling it and desensitizing it, showing your brain that the thing it thinks is catastrophic really isn’t. Each exercise proves it more and more. Good luck :)
Great share. Easy video ranking = 'Promo sm'!!!
Great video
Thank you so much!
ρ尺oΜ𝐎ᔕᗰ 🤘
Love this thank you for sharing
You’re very welcome glad it was helpful!!
Thank you for the suggestions!! It's so good to know that other adults are looking to make friends too and putting yourself out there to make a connection is not as scary as it seems.
Absolutely! 🎉you’re very welcome
Sharing this now! Thank you for your work and message!
I’m so so happy that you found it meaningful, that’s very touching and motivates me to keep putting these out there☺️ thank you for the share as well!
I am not much of a commenter on youtube i just watch what interest me and take what is the gist of the video and test in my life and see if it works. So thanks for the content and the little story and hope you don't mind that if i dont comment the videos
I’m so happy that you find it interesting and helpful! That’s awesome that you are trying these tools in your life to see what works👍
Thank you for this!!! Music can heal and change my attitude whenever I am down!
Thanks for this video and for creating balance in life! Such an important topic for us all to think about right? What is your number one tip in this area?
Thank you for this beautiful comment! I would say that if someone feels stuck, bored, or unfulfilled in their life, they might want to consider that their life is off kilter and work on getting it back in balance
I need to put something more time and attention into the hobbies and interests category.
That’s a very common one people forget to give attention to!
Thank you so much for sharing this
You’re so welcome! I’m so happy you found it helpful :):)
Ty for the video :D
You’re very welcome hope it helps!
What if the qualities I admire come from four different celebrities? Just combine them?
Good question! Combining them is a good solution or you can think of what quality of the 4 is most important for the specific situation you’re in, and choose a different person for the different situations
The classic dog barking ruining a take.
And he did it several times too!!! I was about to lose my mind!
I love it!!! Shows that UA-cam stars do not always get it right on the first take. 😁
haha definitely a work in progress!
Hi dear Dr i got a question.. Do you have a video about what to do when we are so angry
Take a look at the other videos on this channel for soothing yourself . The suggestions about calming yourself from anxiety are ones you could apply to anger as well.
Some great tips there. And thanks for using our music
Thank you so much!!! Thank you for making it and allowing people to use it :) I went through all of the songs and jammed out and this one was exactly what I was looking for!
This format is great! Please, please, please do more pop culture psychology!!!
Thank you! This was fun, glad you enjoyed it, I’d love to do more like this!
Hi (again) !! I needed to hear this today - graduate school is kicking me to the curb but I'm going to try this "catch in real time" strategy starting tomorrow! Also - just subscribed to your channel, and look forward to your biweekly videos now. Thank you so much for taking the time out of your schedule to post these, I hope you continue to do them! :)
That’s great!! This venture definitely is harder and more time consuming than I thought it would be, so I appreciate the encouragement and knowing that it’s helpful! I will definitely keep them coming :) Grad school kicked my butt too, but remember that it’s only temporary and there is life on the other side of it. In the meantime, don’t let your mind convince you that you can’t do it, keep practicing.
this really helped me today -- thank you for posting these videos :)
Thank you so much for the feedback, I’m so glad it could help!! It means a lot to me :)
3 minutes really does help center and refocus me on crazy days!!! Awesome tip, keep them coming.
I love food but I feel that sometimes food doesn't love me. I hope to try some of these tips and hopefully notice a change.
I was told not to do activity games because you are making your mind too active
Was told not to do any puzzle which will make your brain more active. Makes sense
“Be like a willow tree” great analogy I love it and will try to use it!! Thank you!!
You’re so welcome ! I’m glad you found it helpful :)
I just wanted to ask, wouldn't we come off as selfish if we use a lot of I statements?
Good question! Think of it like this- being assertive takes some discomfort and vulnerability. So you’re willing to be uncomfortable, but honest, for the sake of your relationship to continue on a good path with the other person. Instead of only thinking about yourself, you’re also considering the other person and your relationship with them.
@@workinonitwithdr.a8091 Oh that makes sense! Thanks!
Just found and subscribed to the channel! Time to set those goals
That’s great! You have a whole year to work toward them!
Great Video!
Thank you for sharing Dr. A.
You’re so welcome!!
Another super helpful video! I wait for very Tuesday and Thursday to see what Dr. A can help me with next!
Thanks Dr. A! I will practice your instruction. Looking forward to more videos.
Amazing video! You are so well spoken and understandable. Please post more!
This is such a great resource . Thank you!
