Her Anxiety Prevents Her From Living A Normal Life

- Опубліковано 27 вер 2024
- Esther’s parents say their beautiful 38-year-old daughter is nothing but a miracle. Six years ago, doctors removed a tumor the size of a lemon from her brain, and Esther had to relearn how to do everything, from walking and talking to taking a shower. It took three months, but she made a full recovery. But years later, Esther says she was having full blown panic attacks that were so debilitating they prevented her from living a normal life. Esther’s father, Dave, says he had to become her full-time caretaker and moved into her tiny studio apartment, while her mother, Mary, says she shared the burden with her ex-husband. But after a year of living together and dealing with her parents, Esther says she's sick of being treated like a child. Dr. Phil discovers the root of Esther’s anxiety. Plus, NFL Fox reporter Jay Glazer shares his personal story of battling anxiety and depression that he calls “the gray.” (20094)

The feelings she is describing is excruciating…
I used to suffer bad panic attacks and anxiety. That eventually turned into self-harm. I've been pretty much free of it since 2018 and I sure don't miss it.
❤️
How’d you get free
@@wisemechanic1758 I learned you can't worry about everything, you can't control everything, some things just happen on their own whether you want them to or not, and finally, and most importantly, not everything is about me, so stop taking things personally. That's not saying I'm a narcissist, but I'll give you an example. Just because someone hasn't called me in a while doesn't me that don't like, love or care about me, they just could be very busy and haven't had time. or they don't like talking on the phone or a million different reasons I've never thought of. But it's OK. It's nothing to worry about or get upset over. Of course, n the years it finally took me to learn these lessons I more than paid for a few vacations for my therapist. I hope she
enjoyed them. LOL
@@firebird6522 Can we talk. I really need your help on this!
@@anchitagarwal8872 What is wrong, I may be able to help
Her father needs to educate himself on what's happening to her
I have panic attacks, never have I thought about filming myself
This is painful to watch , I’ve suffered myself with anxiety and panic attacks and I would never wish this upon anyone!
It’s almost like watching myself I do the exact same things and for others it’s really hard to even begin to understand how difficult daily tasks are to do because a panic attack can last hours with me, and sadly for this beautiful soul.
I pray she finds some sort of medical explanation, or help from Dr Phil 💜
I could totally relate to her anxiety attacks I wish I could have watched it all and see what advice she was given. I wish her the very best
Here is what helped me. I read it off a UA-cam comment years ago and it changed my life. I sometimes call it "Pick Five Things"
When a panic attack starts to come on, count five things in the room you can see. Then count four things you can touch, three you can hear, two things you can smell, one you can taste.
You could even switch up the order
This helps because you are focusing on your surroundings rather than the suffering. It calms me because I am occupied with something else by focusing on searching for objects in the room and counting. I rarely even get through picking five and I am okay again. Sometimes you have to catch it early, but it helped me a lot! I hope you try this!
I feel for her I have extreme panic attack since 2020 💔
She makes me want to comfort her. If she was my sister or daughter/ loved one I'd do everything in my power to get answers and help her. My heart ❤ goes out to her.
My heart goes out to her. Panic attacks are horrible and it makes your brain think you’re dying! I wish I could just give her a hug ❤️🩹
Oh my Lord! Just looking how anxious and desperate she looks breaks my heart! I'm glad that Doctor Phil will be offering the help she needs.
Omg I feel for her. Anxiety can be extremely crippling for some people.
Cold turkey withdrawal from Ativan sent me into a 5 straight days of no sleep stretch and into the hospital. Brutal. Don't go off these cold turkey. Taper. Best don't even start it. Ativan is highly addictive because it's short acting.
I’m sorry this happened to you 😔 I also found it happens with Valium (for me anyway)
The withdrawal from these drugs can be fatal.
Everyone in life is going through something different. You never know what it is. Just be kind and always show love 💙
I really wish the older generation can educate themselves about panic attacks and anxiety attacks because these are real feelings and hard to control
This. I suffer from PTSD. My family thinks it’s “all in my head” and I can just make the anxiety stop if I wanted to. If it was that easy, then I would’ve done that 20 years ago.
@@AmyDCools I had the same issue as well with my family and my doctor too. It's either they don't want it is or they think medicine can help everything
@@AmyDCools it is definitely not in your head, I have slight PTSD and my mom has severe PTSD, luckily our doctor actually listens to us instead of immediately throwing meds at us
Its not just older generations as we too have chronic panic attacks. Im a grandmother of adult children but my life has been a struggle with panic attacks for decades. People who are unfamiliar with anxiety of all ages if a loved one struggles with them should educate themselves about them.
The hospital got me addicted to Ativan 9 years ago. The withdrawal was horrific.
I started taking xanax everyday for anxiety back April 20201 was switched to klonopin in may 2021 I was experiencing withdrawals WHILE taking it. I never went over the mg I was supposed to take..after taking it daily for 7 month I quit it cold turkey in October. I’m still experiencing what she is going through to this day... I was only on .5mg. Don’t touch those pills... completely ruined my life. My heart goes out to this beautiful women and to anyone who experiences panic attacks/ anxiety❤️❤️
Are you still on the klonopin
Okay I feel for this woman. You can't turn off panic attacks. If that was the case then I wouldn't need medication for mine LMFAO. When someone is having a panic attack you are suppose to console them. Not tell them what to do. I just wanted to jump into the screen and just hug her! Seeing her like that reminds me of when I couldn't even live my life due to constant panic attacks. This poor woman isn't making it up. And it's not self induced ( depending on the situation ) People get them randomly. I wish people would take the time and learn about panic/anxiety disorder. When she said " I couldn't leave my house " she literally meant it. I couldn't leave my house either. I was afraid that if I was too far away from home that something bad would happen. Never pass judgment on something you know NOTHING about.
Who else started getting teary eyed when she said I started hugging the clothes … uffff she broke my heart
She had a brain tumor removed….it was rather large on her MRI….of course her brain is wiring differently now….with unfortunate effects. Hope they can help her
Poor thing. I have pretty bad GAD that prevents me from doing things, but nowhere near this bad. Anxiety is horrible.
To anyone who suffers from panic or anxiety attacks, try this. I read it off a UA-cam comment years ago and it changed my life. I sometimes call it "Pick Five Things"
When a panic attack starts to come on, count five things in the room you can see. Then count four things you can touch, three you can hear, two things you can smell, one you can taste.
You could even switch up the order
This helps because you are focusing on your surroundings rather than the suffering. It calms me because I am occupied with something else by focusing on searching for objects in the room and counting. I rarely even get through picking five and I am okay again. Sometimes you have to catch it early, but it helped me a lot.
Benzodiazepines cause me to have withdrawal and severe panic attacks within three hours of use. I had to stop all meds and slowly work a new med in. Anxiety sucks.
Kratom saved my life from 20 years of overwhelming anxiety.
I feel sorry for her especially her dad's lack of education on these panic attacks. I can definitely relate because I take Ativan myself for my anxiety and I know how debilitating it can be.
LOVE the outdoor setting
Severe panic attacks and anxiety disorder is such a debilitating disease. Sometimes even the pills prescribed by doctors may fail you. It is true, having such condition will change your life… (in a negative way). I really hope to have the best treatments for the next years. Currently, the world is facing a mental health crisis.
Have a doctor do blood work for Vitamin D deficiency. Also Magnesium helps with my panic attacks and anxiety. I take gummy Magnesium Spring Valley reduces panic attacks. I hope you get better.
God bless you and you're wonderful father xo
Just as she reached the part when she was saying out she felt up pops Dr Phil "is there anything you want to ask me?" Well yes! I was waiting to hear how the poor woman got on then you popped up and it ended!
She sure does look beautiful and kind. At least as a women she will have people to feel bad for her as a guy your life does not matter unless you have value
You can die from benzo withdrawals! Have some compassion. Anxiety is no joke it can ruin your quality of life I know first hand how crippling it is I live it every day
Wow and here I thought my anxiety was bad 🥺
She’s so beautiful, she looks like Haylie Duff
She looks pretty well kept up for anixett
Severe Akathesia. PAWS.
Happened to me. It’s horrific.
So my wife and I just watched your show where you had a insurance agent on and she explained about Medicare and Advantage. I think in all fairness you should now have a insurance agent on to explain about Medicare and Supplemental insurance. The viewers should be able to here all of there options.
I have had these panic attacks one time I was eating and I have food insecurity so i ate really fast and chocked and I panicked my co worker saw me foam at the mouth and I was barely able to get home luckily my mom was off and I was ble to get home and get some medication and weed in my system afterwords I slept most of the day
Ativan is addictive didn't find this out till i needed aniexty meds again and my doctor shot that down pretty quick
Yeah they are just like Xanax
@@bellab9286 Perhaps if they knew what that stuff does to their brain - they wouln'd be so anxious to keep taking it. Look around 😲 Alzhimers is epidemic and the MH experts are doleing out these anti/anxiety/depresants by the basket fulls. I started managing my own health back in 2011 and stopped running to the drug store after each doc appt for my Rx .. and just stopped taking them. We can find some healthier alternatives with holistic/natural medicine... Sadly - I see most elderly are taking this stuff and as a result end up wondering around not knowing where they are or what they are doing 😪 but I can certainly understand their lack of interest in life since The Commies have pretty much succeeded in tearing our nuclear families apart and too many of our children do not want to be bothered by keeping in touch with their parents 💔 and would rather FatherGubment send them a personal care aid 😡 Very Very sad but at least this young woman has her father to give her aid and comfort - Good for him - 🙏
Wow education for the mind I didn't even know that🤔
Panic that might be triggered by the brain surgery she had.
"When I completed my Ativan" doctors love to not tell people to not take it every single day
Ativan withdrawals can be fatal….sane for Valium, Xanax, etc
The men’s rights activists will go on and on about how unfair it is that women get custody of their children, but plenty of fathers are just like this guy. They don’t even have the emotional capacity to deal with these types of situations. They are inherently closed off, even sometimes to 5heir own children.
🙏🏼
I don't blame her father for leaving. He's not a home care nurse and she's a grown woman. She selfishly expects him to quit his job, move in with her and take care of her, and then complains about the manner in which he does it. Hire a nurse or some other form of in-home care! You're an adult.
Im not getting along with my mom I need help getting along I can't stand fighting
Maybe if she thought about someone other than herself, she'd be ok.
You don't have time to look in the camera when your having one. Sounds like a 'Truthful Trish' segment to me.
She needs a week in a hospital.
What was that medicine she got..?
Ativan aka lorazepam. A benzodiazepine one of the most addictive substances in this world.
Filming herself seems weird
Thanks for fear mongering, Anthony the dictator. That man needs to be jailed for the lives he destroyed.
Remember God loves you😊♥️
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.
If you trust in Jesus Christ and repent, you will be saved🙏🙏.
He is coming back soon😌.....
Oooo she’s having withdrawal symptoms how long did she stay on that stuff. Wtf 😳 take ur medication Xanax hello
I feel like anxiety is 90% self induced. You may not be able to control it but your brain starts thinking about it and then causes it.
Spoken like someone who's never experienced accute panic.
@@saraoconnor6169 i knew someone would say this lol I’ve had some really bad anxiety attacks when on dxm and when sober and I’ve noticed it’s the pre thought about feeling anxious that causes it
Attention seeking, nothing more....
not attention seeking, watch this clip again, she really had a brain tumor that caused her anxiety.
🥺😳😯😲😮😱😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬 justincolman8712.
first
Want a cookie
@@LordBonesaw ratio
Second
Withdrawals are serious
I bet she’s traumatized from the brain tumor….and the headache she describes has got to trigger the fear she had when she had the tumor. On top of it…..the last two years have sucked for most of us. I hope she gets better.
I happened to find the entire video by accident. Her panic attacks started when this Covid started
She is beautiful and doesn't look 38 years old. She looks a lot younger.
Are you serious?!
38 is not old, you must be super young 😂
because she’s an esthetician, which is a facialist essentially 😂
@@waitingfortheweekend9002 No 38 is not old at all. I just think she looks like she is twenty-something.
Ur blinde she looks close me to 50
I had a panic attack this morning. I called a hotline. it happens every morning for about 3 hours. I'm exhausted.
Look up grounding techniques where you put your feet firm on the floor and feel your location and that you’re safe etc. When your mind wanders it helps to show yourself your body is fine and in one place. ❤
I have the same problem. Hoping to see follow up on this! No doctor has helped yet..
Please look up Shaan Kassam on UA-cam. I guarantee you he can help you with yours
@CIA: David Marlowe's PsyOp is Your Mental Issue umm. Nice theory and all but I’m describing real world stuff as shown in the video and I’m dead serious. If 17 different doctors have failed to tell me anything Of use yet I’d like to know what she’s dealing with because it looks spot on to what I’ve dealt with for years. It’s crippling
@@joshgarland28 I've been in your shoes and straight up I've been to plenty of doctors as well.... all couldn't give me an answer. It's our nervous system just gone haywire.... seriously follow that guy and he explains to the T what you're going through and how to get out the natural permanent way so you can get your life back.
Wonder if her thyroid has been checked...
I suffer from general anxiety . Watching her makes me super sad I feel her so much !glad Dr Phil can help her!!
As someone who has anxiety, I feel for her.
Addiction. That’s what this is
I wish all the gen z kids claiming to have “depression and anxiety” understood that they really actually don’t.
Fellow gen z kid here (unfortunately) I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety at 14 and I cannot stand when kids around me use depression as an excuse when they more than likely don't have it, I mean i get it if you have it and it makes your daily life hard I deal with that but I have to push through it and be there for my parents and brothers, most people I've met who do actually have depression and anxiety have told me they try not to talk about it and come up with other explanations as to why they couldn't or just didn't do something (sorry for the rant😅)
I wish you don’t ever have to suffer like this !
It's been going on for years and it pisses me off. I remember being in middle school and the kids who pretended to have panic attack and depression for attention.
People like me who suffered in silence were often ignored or ridiculed.
I wish gen z kids didn't have to grow up in a venomous clown world created by selfish boomers where they're taught that being normal is a bad thing.
Mother Trucker me? I know you’re not talking about me…🙄
I’ve had panic attacks and the last thing I would do is pull out my phone to record it...
My anxiety can get so bad that I go into seizures. I feel horrible for her mine are usually short buy to have them all day?! My goodness I'm so sorry for her!
Could it be another brain tumor causing her vision and panic attacks.
that’s what I was thinking, does the full episode explain?
benzos cause dilated pupils
If someone says something about Jesus or whatever in this comment section, they’re awful.
I’ve had these same type of panic attacks I feel for her
God Bless everyone on your show Dr Phil🙏🏼
I wonder if she has functional neurological disorder…. I think that because she mentioned her hands clenching and feeling her body doing those movements on there own. That’s what it’s like when I am having an episode, your body just starts having all sorts of movements and tics and sometimes vocalisations and it can go on for a while. Last time I had a really bad one I couldn’t tell which movements were voluntary and which weren’t, it was awful. She should see a neurologist. It’s actually quite a common condition.
I feel terrible for her, but WHY is she filming herself throughout all of this?!
She was detoxing!!!
She needs an aid!!!
I have gad and at times severe panic attacks, , 13 years, from lyme. It sucks.
The whole episode would be good!
I think you would be a amazing medical professional of some kind
I have bad anxiety too and also have cerebral palsy
It not only has taken over her life but also her father's life.
She makes people like me who actually suffer from severe panic disorder look like a joke and im offended by this...and im not easily offended. Edit: diagnosed at 9 years old but have had panic attacks literally since I have memory recollection...my mom had to have help making me go to elementary school because I would panic so bad every morning, now at 27 its still severely effects my life, thats a real disorder not out of nowhere as an adult, getting scheduled medication then all of the sudden you just can't function because you want to take a ton of Ativan 🙄 then proceeds to use it as a way to get noticed on dr.phil...this honestly disgusts me.
My 10 year old daughter had her first panic attack about 2 months ago (doing great right now!) but right now, they tell us that she does have anxiety and will trigger a panic attack occasionally. I know that is not what you have but you said you were diagnosed at 9 so it really caught my attention. I hope you are doing well now! My girl is not on any medication. She simply does not need it thank goodness. Her ONE panic attack was very scary for her. I can't imagine what you have gone through. I really hope you have treatment methods that work for you.
excuse me? get off your high horse and stop invalidating people because you are toxic
Panic can come out of nowhere as an adult...also she literally had brain cancer and its not the struggle olympics 🙄🙄🙄 Get of your high horse....
@@Evealaquisina high horse? Lmfao just offended someone whos actually toxic is actually invalidating something very real and using it as a way to get on dr.phil and an excuse for her prescription drug problem....get off of your high horse because you obviously don't understand and you're supporting a woman that obviously is using something (even if she does struggle with said disorder) as a ploy to gain notoriety and excuse her addiction, if she truly was struggling like that she wouldn't be filming it posting it for views and going on dr.phil IMHO... im entitled to mine as you're entitled to yours even if we don't agree with each other, thats mine from first hand experience how bout you dump off your high horse.
@@finfam9565 awe thank you so much and I am so sorry to hear she, and you as a parent are having to go through this, I know how difficult it is for both of you. Its amazing to here shes doing better now, that makes me so happy for you both and great job not just medicating her to solve her problem, to many parents go that route, mine did and I believe as yes it might been necessary at times because I was really struggling and my mom didn't know what to do she was just trying to help, I believe in the long run it can be very damaging for multiple reasons because it can make it impossible to develop natural coping skills for your child in the future, as well as possibly being bad for her ect. Im sure you're very aware of all of this as you sound like a great parent that truly is concerned for your daughters well being, I commend you for that and being understanding. Don't worry she sounds like she will be just fine even if its something she has to deal with for the rest of her life, as long as she has the support system (you sound like a great one) that she needs and learns earlier than later coping mechanisms to deal with it properly and feels she has someone who understands her so she doesn't feel bad about dealing with something different. Thats my humble advice to you as someone who dealt with a similar thing and is now an adult, not that it seems you need any advice it sounds like you're doing great! Wishing your daughter and you the absolute best, I have hope everything is going to be just fine for ya'll.
