    Yes! Habits are tricksters! They create mental grooves that can catch at random times. I've been experiencing weird intrusive thoughts that I haven't struggled with for years which makes it feel that much more intense. I just keep reminding myself that I have a very creative mind and that these habitual thinking patterns are just something I've invented. There is no authority "outside" myself telling me these things, so I dont have to believe these disturbing thoughts. It helps me to shift my focus and let these thoughts float away easier.

      @vinylg3421 I think it's part of the whole acceptance thing. When the fear of it coming back no longer matters because you know if it does, you'll know how to deal with it, then I think you can call that recovery. Everyone gets anxiety and weird thoughts from time to time, and if we normalize that fact and not freak out over it, then our bodies will calm down. I think as time passes and we get desensitized, the risk of falling back in gets less and less.

Also the last week was full of negative thoughts and Derealization and Depersonalization. But I managed to overcome them. I believe that I am getting better little by little. Along with medication and acceptance, I am seeing a good change in myself.

    Having some fairly intense spikes today, and off and on over the last couple days … just as I thought I was almost out of the woods. Well, hurray! Another opportunity to practice responding more skillfully. Thanks for the reminder! At least these feelings no longer freak me out; but, they're definitely unpleasant and it's easy to get discouraged if I'm not careful. Anyway, if nothing else comes out of this, I have no choice but to learn to be more patient. That doesn't come easy for me!

    This video just came at the right time for me. Been doing so well but last few days I've had a bit of a setback. So what did I do? Panicked, oh here it goes again, how long will it last? Why?
    After seeing this video I told myself to do what I'd do on a good day. So I got up, had breakfast, walked the dog, did my chores. Yes I still feel the nausea, panic etc but it didn't stop me living my day. Maybe the more I can do this the less the setbacks will be. Don't let your monkey mind ruin your day because that's all it is. Thank you Shaan for keeping me sane and helping me understand.

      Sounds all too familiar. In spite of having more anxiety than usual lately, I hopped on a bus on Sunday and went to San Francisco to roam around a bit. Beautiful views and great food, etc. But, at one point I almost lost my balance as I was walking down the sidewalk. Was afraid somebody might notice and think I had been drinking a bit too much. At my age (75), I know balance can be an issue, but I'm usually just fine. That day it was just a couple brain zaps that made me wobbly.

      Medication for anxiety and panic is an example of trying to "fix" anxitey. Fixing is one of the "five Fs" that get people stuck in the spiral of panick and anxiety.. the more you try to "fix and resist" anxiety, the more it stays.
      Well ofcourse i by no means am underestimating the calming effects of medicine, but i know that even if you calm down, you will always have intrusive thoughts regarding your Medications such as( am i gonna be on these meds forever? How will i ever stop?). And these kinds of thoughts themselves keep you afraid (fear of symptoms is another one of the 5 Fs).
      So how can you overcome this without medication? Well.. i believe it is explained in this video and other videos about the idea of acceptance and the mistakes people make when they are "accepting". Acceptance works.. but it is a vague term kinda "in my opinion". People who are used on using escape and fixing mechanisms (which is literally anyone who is in the anxiety spiral) will always tend to use acceptance as an escape, they will have unrealistic expectations and will get frustrated when they "accept" and symptoms stay.. but the idea of acceptance is not to escape.. it is to acknowledge the symptoms, to understand why they happen (anxiety) and just let them do their thing.. you stop avoiding whatever you always tend to avoid and if symptoms come, you let them come, you slowly start to lose your fear of symptoms that way, and that is how you break the spiral, by losing the fear of symptoms, after you do that, your symptoms will disappear (takes a while , it is a habit that takes a long time to lose fear of symptoms).
      I hope this helps..

      @kunalpuri3432 acceptance will not remove your symptoms.. or bad days.. it simply lets you respond correctly, which is to stop avoiding stuff that triggers your anxiety.. and trust me i know how hard it is to do something when you have panic symptoms.. but please try to avoid these 2 mistakes:
      1- do not compare yourself all the time to how you were before all the anxiety and panic, this counteracts the idea of acceptance. Instead just appreciate that you are not avoiding anymore, and you aren't scared of the symptoms (because if they happen, you let them happen and you still do your thing).
      2- do not put a timeline in which you expect to recover. This is an instrusive thought that makes your body stay sensitive to anxiety..
      Last but not least.. overcoming anxiety doesn't mean you won't have bad days, it also doesn't mean you stop feeling anxious.. it just means.. that you got used to it to the point you start to feel normal again

      So first: indirectly yes, with puberty there come a lot of changes and new challenges. You might start to worry about things you didn't care about before. Secondly: Yes, it can be recovered but it takes time and a lot of patience and dedication. Third: No. Doesn't mean it can't be cured. And fourth: It depends on the individual.

      How bad for me? It was so bad during the first few days (in February 2023) that I called suicide prevention three different days, and every agency they referred me to in order to try to find some help. Finally, on someone's recommendation, I went to emergency and got myself admitted to a psych ward. (I don't recommend it!) At least I got to see a psychiatrist and was put on meds. Anyway, that was a very terrifying experience. After discharge from the hospital, I was in a support group for awhile, where we eventually watched some videos about anxiety. Not very helpful, but went to UA-cam when I got home and eventually found Shaan. Finally I found information that was actually very useful! Doing much better now (macro perspective), but been having some anxiety attacks off/on the last few days. This video was very helpful, and I feel much calmer now than I did when I started watching it. Also, it's great to read the comments and remind myself that I am not alone in this. Neither are you.
