When Your Negative Thinking Won't Go Away, What CAN You Do?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 сер 2024
- n this video, author and mental health educator Douglas Bloch shares his thoughts on what to do when changing your thinking to improve your mood doesn't work because extreme states of anxiety or depression render positive thinking impossible. Instead, Douglas advocates a "bottom-up" approach in which you change your physiology to create the decrease in emotional pain you are seeking. This video was previously published under the title, "When Changing Your Thinking Isn't Enough."

when I have a panic attack I just go on duolingo and do exercises until the intensity lowers enough so i can go to phase 2. you can't be anxious and think about foreign language grammar at the same time. works for me, hope it's helpful to someone.
I have PTSD and do Chinese via Duolingo and exercices on Brain HQ for same reason - changing focus is one of the best tools and at 71 I'm changing my brain as well.
@@nzkaka8293 this is AWESOME! congratulations
You just may have kick_started a new hobby for those of us who didn't even think of that in a million years to help rewire a part of our brain!
@@lorenheard2561 awwh, i feel legendary right now, thank you, Loren! yeah, turning anxiety into being a polyglot
Everything you have ruminating and intrusive catastrophic thoughts in your mind’s eye, start imagining a blank white piece of paper instead. Do this every time the thought pops up, replace it with the blank paper. Helped me.
And before you go to sleep assert "I am disengaging all thoughtss"
Thank you for this great video Douglas. Next time I feel like this I will try to remind myself to do exercise. If I don’t ever get to meet you in this life, it will be an honour to meet you in the next.
I'm glad that the video was helpful.
Douglas, I lost you somewhere in the Internet, I finally found you by recalling your intro. And joke segment of your videos.
I think part of your success is the fact that you are not just a doctor.
Thank you so much for all of your videos. I’ve had a lot happened to me 2 years ago, I worked very hard to get back to some sort of stability. Yet one day I woke up feeling completely exhausted as if ran over by a huge truck, out of energy, every regular activity became a burden even answering a phone call. These videos helping me getting through negative thinking and distancing myself from anxiety attacks, self doubts, pressure. I appreciate all the work that’s been done at your channel to make people feel better and see the light. Thank you for the support, guidance and lovely jokes which always elevate my mood! I wish the host Douglas and all the followers very well.
Hi Douglas: I discovered that anxiety is the anticipation of pain. Therefore, our understanding of pain will determine how pain-adverse we are. If we understand pain as an essential element for transformation, which can be positive or negative depending on how we process pain, then we can make choices to frame our disposition to pain so we don't view it as pointless, or the malicious will of a sadistic universe or punishment for unknown offenses, etc. The key is to not permit ourselves to parse our negative emotions in ways that lead to self-pity, anger, resentment, etc. By acknowledging our negative emotions and releasing them through forgiveness and a firm belief that enduring our circumstances and emotions positively, we can improve our threshold to deal with pain, we can be hopeful that our strength to carry painful crosses will increase even if the cross itself never gets lighter.
Very nicely said
Great joke. You made me laugh again… 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😄💚
Hi, negative is what keeps us alive. it is ok to think & feel sad mad bad afraid - it is part of being human.
Panic attacks can come out of the blue,or grey sky!! I don't know how many times people in my life have just told me to just "Get over it"! It doesn't always work- I totally understand that,most people who don't have depression for most of their life don't!! Will try something out of what you have suggested!!🤗💯❤️🕊️😅Thank you Douglas!!
Wonderful advice as always, I will never unsub from your channel
Thank you for your kind words. I like your UA-cam name
Your videos helped me a great deal over the years , can’t thank you enough.
I’m very glad they have been helpful
Videogames have been a massive therapeutic source for me

One of your best Doug, watch your own videos

Great video as always Doug . Exercise is so important.
Wonderful comments!!
Thank you for your videos, Douglas.
You're welcome
I am very grateful for your tips and knowledge as well as sharing your own experiences. You have helped me tremendously. Thank you!
I'm glad the videos been helpful
Complex trauma or cptsd can totally mean depression & emotional flashbacks which can feel like you're panicking. Cassie Winter on here. Pete Walker - book - "From Surviving To Thriving"...on here. Write. Read. Be still when you need to. Rest. Be gentle with yourself. Thank you for your content. Writing just basic stuff is good when feeling overwhelmed. Writing better than talking if you were very ovrrwhelmed since childhood & beyond.
It's interesting you mention complex trauma. That is the subject of my next video which will be published a week from Saturday, may 7.
Thank Douglas
Great video as always Doug, thanks for what you do good Sir
Very welcome
Thank you!
You are welcome
I’ve had the same intrusive thoughts for 4 years now and nothing has fixed them I’ve tried everything including medication it’s constant
Have you tried reading a book called "brain lock" by Jeffrey Schwartz? It gives a four step process for responding to intrusive thoughts. You might want to look at it
Where do you go for prayer
I'm off antidepressants now for a couple of years. 50 yrs of them didn't work.
I've gone through a lot of trauma. I'm so uncomfortable in my own skin I don't know what to do with myself. Insomnia, doesn't help. Surgeries have limited exercise and live where I got no PT.
Suggestions?
I personally cannot provide you with advice in your case however I send you good wishes and hope you receive the advice you need
Meditation helps
If u cud get Insite Timer is brilliant
It takes time to work but definitely works
I'm sorry about the insomnia. When I wake up and can't go back to sleep I count backwards from 100 to 1. I also did a video called "medication's that are prescribed for insomnia."
Great advice, thank you. I was surprised that you didn't mention anything about deep breathing techniques, which can also be effective as a bottom up approach I think?
Can they can also be very helpful.
Isn’t this the same video as before but with different title ?
You're correct. But I wanted new people to be able to see it.
@@DouglasBloch Thanks for your effort Douglas , I watch your videos everyday before sleeping since the last 1,5 or 2 years 🌹.
much of this power n money culture triggers a response to mental illness not saying money n influence is bad i guess its the exaggeration of it
I suffer psychosis and depression it is too hard the psychosis especially
Psychosis is a very difficult disorder. Yet, there are treatments for it. Are you seeing a mental health provider?
@@DouglasBloch since 2004 diagnosed with bipolar i have tried many anti psychotic medications but my condition is so severe
Déjà vu ?
Is there any way I can contact you doug? Feeling a bit hopeless
You can email me douglasbloch@gmail.com

@@DouglasBloch I do have WhatsApp, how can we communicate ?
