Not that there was much of a sunrise, but one mindfulness technique is apparently watching a sunrise so here I am at Coombe Hill near Aylesbury, Bucks, watching the sunrise and taking in nature to feel better!

Переглядів 6515 років тому
Doctor time again. This time thanks to the BBC and their shitty journalism. Worries about my throat due to recurring pain. I’ve had cold after cold and it could be that, but a BBC article has worried me that I need to see a doctor. Fingers crossed

Great video mate
Cheers buddy.
Thanks for sharing Alistair. I'm a bit older than you but I can really relate to a lot of what you're feeling. I have terrible anxiety, and I suffer with lots of physical symptoms which make the anxiety worse. Feel as though I have depression but not been officially diagnosed with it. Also I'm carrying to much weight and you made me smile when you said you wish you could have someone to coach you because I say exactly the same. Having someone to tell me what to eat and what exercise to do etc. It would be good! . Sorry you have had a bad year. Like you say were all in it together and we can all reach out together if need be. Thanks again for sharing mate, you take care and I look forward to future videos.
Cheers mate. Much appreciated. Yeah, the “lifestyle” books have recipes, or workouts, but I want a 30 day complete plan. With every meal planned, every workout planned, and someone spurring me on! Hope you manage to hold back the anxiety as much as possible and enjoy Christmas! Have a good one and take care!
Hi mate, randomly opened your video tonight. Just letting you know you're not on your own. I'm currently convinced I have either MS or MND. Wobbly weak leg etc. Burst into tears earlier, not for the first time this week. I think it's all just anxiety but my brain won't stop freaking out. Hate this time of year, hate the short days and the fact i can't see my family or my mates. Want to be excited about Christmas but I can't. Hate our UK government and the fucking mess we're in. And I hate the fact I'm going grey!. Just had enough of feeling like this, I just wanna sit in a nice beer garden in the sun, have a pint with my mates and feel myself again.. fucking covid. You've had a really rough year of it, but I just wanted to let you know you're not alone and there are always people out there you can talk to, even on UA-cam. Take it easy bud.
Thanks for the kind words mate. Sorry to hear about your anxiety. I’ve had the whole MS/MND/Parkinson’s fear before. Even saw a neurologist. It’s so hard when your brain is telling you two things. And agree about not being able to see mates! This year is a big ol’ pile of crap. I too have gone grey! It actually pretty much happened overnight after my youngest was born in April. Roll on summer is what I say! Let’s hope that by next summer, we can all get outside and enjoy seeing our friends and family once more! Hope you manage to find some peace and have a good Christmas! Take care
@@alistairdarby thanks mate, appreciate it. Wish you and your family a happy and peaceful Christmas 👍🏻🍻
Great video pal, I can really relate to it. Hope things are better with you now.
Much better now thanks. Still get anxiety flare ups, particularly from end of august when I tend to find exercising and eating well becomes harder. I think it’s basically an exaggerated seasonal affective disorder. When March comes around, I pick up again and feel a lot better. Hope you’re doing well.
@@alistairdarby Thanks for replying. Glad you're feeling better than you were. Like I said could really relate to your video. I'm suffering with my throat at the moment. I have been diagnosed with gerd after having throat pain but once I got the diagnosis the pain went away. But now its back with avengence. Its there all the time. Before that I had abdominal cramping off and on for years. No rhyme or reason to it. I suffer with health anxiety but sometimes I don't know if I'm making my symptoms worse because of it. If it ain't one thing its something else. Always something seems to be wrong . Feel fatigued aswell. It's just depressing at times. Anyway sorry for the long reply, but like I said I could really relate to what you said. Thanks again for sharing that video.
@@Micky1884 hope you manage to get some peace from it ASAP. If you’re not taking meds for anxiety, definitely worth a try. Just a low dose. It did wonders for me. I get all over abdominal cramps which usually end up being gas or muscle ache. I think it’s SAD though because apparently aches can be related to that.
@@alistairdarby I have watched all your videos mate. They are really interesting.It would be great if you uploaded more in the future. Il subscribe to your channel. Cheers mate
I truly understand you because I suffer from the same things that you do...both in terms of worries and bodily symptoms. By the way how are you feeling right now?
Wow! Late reply. Huge apologies. I’m a lot better now. Still an underlying anxiety that flares up now and then, but I manage it with exercise, diet, and sertraline. A lot of it is down to living with it for several years. I’ve noticed patterns. Particularly that it flares up from end of August and gets progressively worse until January. Usually, it’s because I let myself go over the summer and eat like a pig. I’m sure it then has a negative impact. It gets worse when I stop exercising in September. This year, I’m trying to change that a bit but it’s still there a bit. How are you feeling?
It is possible that it is due to sleep deprivation. Sleep deprivation in return can heightened stress, especially in muscles, or worse case scenario, cause mental disturbances if sleep dept isn't caught up as the days go by. Hopefully by now you have recovered dude.
Thanks for the reply, and sorry for getting back to you so late! (It’s been a shite year.) Most likely this is sleep deprivation, yeah. I have it whenever I’m knackered!
I stopped and removed all sort of News sites and apps cause they are really bad for those is hypocondria
I have tremors too and I have health anxiety for 2 months... I'm just confused, because my hand tremors occured when I was not in an attack or anything... does this happen to you?
Kes Frazer Yeah, totally have that too. Usually, when I’m too tired, or stressed. It’s my fingers that go, then the hand a little. But when I catch up on sleep, it goes. I’ve seen the neurologist who tested me and was satisfied it wasn’t anything bad. He thought it was stress and tiredness and sure enough, a rest sorted it out. Hope yours subsides! Get plenty of sleep ;)
@@alistairdarby Thank you so much! Mine has been present for 8 hours, yesterday it wasn't present, but 2 days ago it was but on the other hand. 😭
Alistair Darby is this not called essential tremor? Or is that something different
@@malidutch6888 Essential tremors are unexplained tremors are they not? The tremor he has seems to be due to sleep deprivation and stress, which I also suffer from.
I can relate to you with how your feeling so much. I have been struggling with my throat for the last 9 months and it’s been hell. Everything revolves around my throat and chest and it’s so hard to deal with. I feel like no one wants to hear me complain about how I feel but it’s such a scary feeling! I really hope you’re okay and maybe doing better ☺️
Molly X Hi, thanks for the words of encouragement. I saw the doctor who put me on antidepressants and since then, things have been a ton better. I’ve avoided the doctor since March and feel way better in myself. It’s tough because we use our throats all the time and if they feel off, we notice it all the time. Hopefully you can deal with yours and it’ll get better! Thanks again
Great video, I admire your courage for putting yourself out there for the entire world to see. Anxiety is so cunning and power, in a matter of minutes you can go from being ok to the world caving in. I too share my experience though this platform. I've met several people that have helped and gave me some great advice. stop by sometime, I think we can help each other. you have a new subscriber:)
