Awesome video, Douglas! I remember the loneliness of the college years. I've lived alone since 2014 and hardly ever get lonely. :)
I like the reminder to first reconnect with yourself - and have compassion
Thank you.
being thankful about a piano recital in utube is good n bein thnkful bout it is great for combating loneliness
Thank you Mr. Bloch for your videos. They help me feel less lonely because it's like talking with someone who understands! I'm reading your book also, Healing From Depression. I've never had depression before. Thank you for giving me hope that this episode won't last forever.
You are very welcome. Is the book healing from depression giving you tools and coping resources?
Yes, it has a lot of good, practical advice. I was happy to see that several things I've been doing already so I'm on the right track! It's just hard to keep going when you don't know when the anxiety and depression will break. The depressive episode was brought on by cancer treatment which ended in July. It's been 9 months since it started. Thanks again for giving me hope and practical tips for how to "tread fire" until I get well again!
I need to buy the book 😢 I have finally decided to not hide my "shame" of depression and anxiety even if my 2 family members can't understand 😢
Thank you. Your videos are so soothing. You have a nice speaking voice. I love my dog 🐶 .
I can relate to the college onset of depression. I think it's from the removal of predecided structure and having to make your own as much as immediate loss of family support. Your joke of day:A man wrote his # on a lime for a girl. It was a pickup lime.
your analysis is spot on. Thanks for the good joke.
Still surviving the hurricane in FL. The power is still out. Staying at sons. Ugh
My voice is the rollerdex of past hurts and abuse that continues everyday . It affects ny chest and I can’t feel good even when I’m around people .
This is a year later but I’m so lonely but not enough to be around fake people who are toxic and bitchy . I’m pretty sensitive after years of trauma n illness . You do good stuff . Ty
Thanks Doug
You are welcome
Fantastic video!!
Loved it!!!
I’m glad you found the information helpful.
Sadly in Australia in regional towns , unless your rich therapy is a luxury . Especially when I’ve reached out so much to find books are closed , a lot , they don’t do it any more or the wait is over 6 months , or you get very lazy therapists who don’t care if you have the mental health plan from your Dr . It’s frustrating
Love the puns
So do I
Hi Douglas, could you make a video in which you go more into how to reconnect with yourself?
That’s a very good idea! I will talk to my editor about it
Loneliness is not the issue and yet it is. I don't like people because I don't feel good in myself. I am sick and tired of being stuck in my home with nowhere to go that gets rid of my depression. I can go out to watch a movie for instance, but the depression follows me. Life is taking me nowhere. I am reluctant to seek therapy because I don't feel It will get me anywhere. I have been in therapy sessions before and gave up because I was going nowhere. I am a group animal, I need people around me! What the hell am I going to do? Help! Help! A million times Help! The only weapon (as always) I have in my arsenal is anger. I can't go on like this, I'm not living I'm just existing.
I totally feel your pain , Going thru same thing ,
I'm sorry that therapy has not worked before. You might want to try it again with a new therapist.
@@DouglasBloch I don't like and whats worse, I can't handle people. All my life I've had a big problem with people.
@@DouglasBloch trying to get a good therapist let alone a great one is extremely extremely hard if not impossible
