I've just started dealing with the intrusive thoughts and I didn't understand it. I latched on to the "what if i'm going crazy thought" and it made me spiral into the worst week of my life. I even pressured my therapist to test me for other mental health issues and all came back to negative. After watching your videos and help from my therapist I am better able to cope with these thoughts. I'm not anxiety free but I'm not scared of it anymore. If your dealing with this just tell yourself that it's all anxiety and it's not going to hurt you. Take it day by day and focus on the present and on the things that you love the most about life. Life is beautiful and we will get through this!!!
What a great video Shaan. This is what put me in the mental ward at 18 for two weeks. I was getting to craziest, most heinous thoughts imaginable. I couldn't even sit in class. One day it was so bad I just walked to the library crying. My mom knew this was to me and raced to the school due to the principle calling. My mom thought I committed suicide. I went to the library and started reading on it. I couldn't find much. I was put in Paxil and they went away. In the 90's there was no info like this. What Shaan is doing is remarkeable. Bringing anxiety to the forefront. Explaining what our bodies are doing and how to respond by not responding. I wouldn't have been in the hospital if I knew this. Just knowing what Shaan tells you. You will never hit rock bottom. Understand the concepts but you gotta do the work! Thanks Shaan! 👏🤟♥
I am laying down crying because I am so grateful for this video. I was having anxiety all day like a 3 in a scale of 10 but I’ve been dealing with it since 5 months I am so tired. And I’ve been searching non stop for videos to explain how to help with my anxiety and I am truly grateful for this one. Because i understand what is happening to me and I am just so happy someone has been able to sum up every single symptom I have and call it that. It makes me feel grateful that I have anxiety and not going crazy, that I am just a normal person. Thank you so so much. You have no idea what this video means to me. ❤️ thank you thank you thank you.
For the first time ever for the past 3 now 4 nights my intrusive thoughts made me quickly think of dying.Ptsd and anxiety diagnosis as a nine yr. Old. Idk what will happen or what to think. I went on long walks talking to my dam self! What?! My doctor added buspar to my meds. Starting tonight. I pray for this of course and I pray for those having this fight within.
I have developed intrusive thoughts and anxiety a few months ago and The main intrusive that won’t stop is “what if I fall out of love with my girlfriend or what If i already have?” it has been driving me insane and has been really hard to deal with because I know I love her with all my heart
Me too, my physical symptoms went away except tinnitus at night, and very weird dreams I can't even explain them, but the intrusive thoughts are sticking around somehow
@@nickson8597 the intrusive thoughts, keeps me from fully recovering but because of Shaans video I am applying it and practicing day by day to put it in anxiety umbrella as well as other physical symptoms
@@MaldadNada i still get the same symptoms but this days they are just part of me sometimes i recognize them but the big change is it got easier with time i started going outdoor more spend times with friends more stayed consistent on training and it is working! don't give up on yourself its hard going forward but you'll realize it wasn't soo hard when you look back
Now panic attacks are almost 80% gone and when panic tries to attack on me, the acknowledgement and acceptance really help me. But now intrusive thoughs have started troubling me to fear.
Thankyou shaan. I always watch your video. If anxiety attacking you, do nothing ❤️ Thankyou shaan for always explaining over and over again. Godbless you bro 🙏
Always wanted a baby and now that God has given it to me for a good 2 months I was filled with intense anxiety and I still do now with less intensity. There is an end to this fight and it seems like intrusive thoughts are about the last thing to fight. Keep fighting Warriors the fire breathes new light.
This is me now ! The thoughts and the physical symptoms always on my left side , it’s the one I think of the most it’s my only symptom 😩 been cleared multiple times by doctors! It’s to the point the ER know me by name don’t even have to check in 🤦🏾♂️ but I will beat this we all will 🙌🏾
Great video, Shaan! I love the recovery-focussed approach, rather than the "coping" approach. We want to move ON from this, not settle for "managing symptoms"
I had some rough childhood issues, followed by a bad injury and ive been dealing with all of this for years i feel as a result. ... it's been affecting my life, my work, my family... im grateful to find your videos. Thank you
Shawn I have been watching your videos as lately my Anxiety has been making my life difficult, I have had a bad time with it between my brother passing away, to job hunting, to struggle with myself just attempting to stay positive it has been hard but your videos are helping me so much , I have been super sensitive to reoccurring bad thoughts on things I can't control, I get abdominal pain, burning in my arms and legs, panic attacks or anxiety attacks , life just feels like everyday is a battle sometimes.
Thank you so much for sharing this information. I didn't even know I had intrusive thoughts until now. And now I also realize how they do keep me spiraling. What a great power it gives to recognize that you can actually choose what thoughts you engage with. This is a big enlightment for my journey. Never heard any healthcare professional or even therapist explain this. Thanks!
After a car accident and almost near death experience I became very detached from my body and the world people who are closest to me became like strangers and the world became childlike again, I've been through a lot of ego deaths and I feel like I'm finally merging back with my Higher Self and the world 🩷💕✨
I am autistic so I am wired up to obsess over things but thanks to CBT I never engage with intrusive thoughts the trick is to reframe when you get one change your response. They will always be a part of your life however if you can reframe them you can ignore them. I doesn’t matter what the the content of the thought is the rules are the same.
You are very good shaan. I can’t thank you enough for putting up these videos. I am able to change my life for better by looking and listening at your videos. Thanks a million times.
I am not diagnosed as anxiety but i know i have anxiety because i feel the same way after watching his videos only and its very helpful and fact sometimes anxiety stuff can be cure by itself like every human having anxiety
In a sense, it IS a valid question, what if the MDs miss something, because, in reality, sometimes they do! Not to scare people, I just mean, it's possible. But, usually a good MD can figure out if someone is having a somatic symptom of something tangible, medical, or if it's not. The evidence is usually there for them to see. The thing is psychological/behavioral or even neurological stuff can indeed be more difficult to pinpoint or diagnose. Years ago people would often get misdiagnosed with whatever, schizophrenia, let's say, and it was nothing of the kind...anxiety, bipolar, depression, or whatever.
ME TOO!! So Blessed to have Shaan explain Anxiety Symptoms and realise I'm NOT alone in this WORLD with My ANXIETY!!!We're ALL in this Together and WE will OVERCOME OUR ANXIETY!! GOD BLESS EVERYONE ON THEIR JOURNEY❤X
Thank you for making these videos. It's great to hear this perspective, and you're really giving me some food for thought to challenge my anxiety and get to recovery. I have a question regarding thoughts. One of my problems with health anxiety is I will have a scary thought like this is a heart attack or some kind of disease. Then my next thought is the doctor said I'm fine and it's just anxiety related. But then u feel the symptom again and then the thought that comes next is "but what if this time its different?"... How do you challenge that last thought?
Is nervous system sensitization the same as your bodies cells becoming cortisol resistant, just like insulin resistance, because your body is experiencing elevated cortisol all the time from stress?
hey shaan i've been seeking recovery for so long and it's been so bad recently im terrified with DPDR ive lost my job ive lost my appetite i cant leave my house at all i need help
I feel you as this scared me bad after my first panick attack but every resource is adamant that this will never be permanent. It can’t be no matter how shitty you may feel. reading that your brain may scream NO MY CASE IS SPECIAL THIS IS BAD. that brain is just really concerned and wants to keep u safe. It’s all fear of the altered state that you’re in that is fueling it. Just like shaan recommends - arm yourself with knowledge of what anxiety can look like to help relieve all that stress. Look up dpdr symptoms once check them off and then practice accepting and allowing. No more wondering or engaging in anxious or catastrophic thinking. Something I noticed and it may seem a little weird but it gave me some peace is I can feel derealized and strange and “insane” but somehow my body and mind can recognize my room, my belongings, my family, my dog, and even my street despite me “ feeling” as though I can’t recognize them. It’s that perception that causes the disconnect. But it’s sooooo normal in dpdr :) I’ve been in this body 23 years and I know deep in my bones this altered reality that dpdr causes is just a temporary state. No matter how real it may seem. It’s just a blip in my timeline. If experts and ppl who have recovered say it’s my bodies signal I’m stressing it out past what it can handle then okay. My job is to allow it to calm back down and rest. No more questioning or wondering bc I have all the knowledge I need. It’s a survival tactic that the brain releases. That’s all. 🦦 hope you’re well you got this
Wait! Am I cheeseburger?! Storing that in my memory for future use. It made me laugh and was very needed. Possibly developed DP/DR after a horrific mushroom experience. Recent life situations have brought back that particular feeling of panic/doom from several years ago. So glad I found this video and channel. I'm going to thrive & survive.
Mine also happened from a horrific mushroom experience. I was fine after but a year later (almost to the exact day) I had my worst ever panic attack and anxiety became debilitating. I was finally healing from my anxiety and 2 months ago, on the 2yr anniversary of the bad trip the bad intrusive thoughts started and still struggling to get through them. Physical symptoms have gotten better but not the thoughts.
I feel like I need a hypnotist to hypnotize me to stop thinking about my symptoms. I am having a hard time controlling my thinking. Anyone try a hypnotist?
My anxiety and panic attacks started happening because of all my bills and not being able to make them. I can see how not caring can help some people but some other people can’t do the same thing.
Now my heart do not pump alot but intrusive thoughts takes place sometimes and sometimes they are with me and sometimes they cause problems in sleeping cycle😅 but i am deep sleeper but last night I haven't get nice sleep like i wakeup little early and not feeling tired but after minute i and feeling tired and thoughts coming then i remember its just i thought and sleep to about 5 hours and these 5 hours are broken because my family keep waking up and but that sleep was deep because i don't even remember when i sleep and when i wakeup because i have some works so I wake up but i wanna sleep more and the fact only intrusive thoughts are left in my anxiety i even takes 11 hour sleep but last night i again get Little bit problem in sleep so i get scared because at the very beginning i deal with insomnia for almost two days i dont take medicine i just let it be natural and fact today i sleep very vividly and i know sometimes as human we dont sleep 🥱
6:57 #1 What if this is my life forever I always get panic attacks what if my life is like this forever my mum passed away when I was 8 years old and my dad abandoned me because of a lady I'm staying with my aunty and uncle who have difficulty with walking but they are looking after me I have muscular dystrophy I'm 20 years old I get panic attacks what if something will happen to them what will I life be like because I'm not a independent person due to my disability 💔

Just deep breathing gives me thoughts of panicking because it’ss endless. Since I was 5 years old.
Is nervous system sensitization the same as your bodies cells becoming cortisol resistant, just like insulin resistance, because your body is experiencing elevated cortisol all the time from stress?
Very well explained 👍👍
If I’m not my mind or my body, then who I am? This is what gives me anxiety.
You are the soul or consciousness behind it. ❤
You are a game changer
Very helpful content and strategies. Thanks🙏♥️
