In this video we’re going to go over the 17 common signs of mental illness in adults, adolescents, and young children. These symptoms are things everyone experiences at different time, but they become a part of mental health illnesses when they are intense, prolonged, and cause socioeconomic dysfunction. Learning about these symptoms in yourself or your adolescent or young children will help you stop them, so you can seek out appropriate treatment.
1. Extreme worrying or fear
2. Feeling extremely sad or down
3. Disorganized thinking or difficulties concentrating and learning
4. Intense mood changes, including overwhelming “highs” or feelings of euphoria
5. Sustained or intense feelings of irritability or anger
6. Avoiding friends and social activities
7. Difficulties understanding or relating to other people
8. Changes in sleeping habits or feeling tired and low energy
9. Changes in eating habits such as increased hunger or lack of appetite
10. Changes in sex drive
11. Difficulty distinguishing reality (delusions or hallucinations, in which a person experiences and senses things that don't exist in objective reality)
12. Lack of ability to recognize changes in one’s own feelings, behavior or personality (“lack of insight” or lack of ability to perceive the realities of one's own condition)
13. Overuse of alcohol or drugs
14. Multiple physical complaints without obvious causes (such as headaches, stomach aches, vague and ongoing “aches and pains”)
15. Thinking or planning self-harm
16. An intense distress of weight gain or concern with appearance
17. Lack of ability to carry out daily activities or handle daily problems and stress
Mental health conditions can also begin to develop in those before adolescence. Because they’re still learning how to identify and talk about thoughts and emotions, their most observable symptoms are behavioral. Symptoms in children may include the following, begin at 26:32:
• Changes in school performance
• Extreme worry or anxiety, for instance fighting to avoid bed or school
• Hyperactive behavior
• Recurrent nightmares
• Recurrent disobedience or aggression
• Recurrent temper tantrums

I think I have a mental illness due to untreated trauma. I don’t even know where to start. It’s gotten a lot worse since my mom and my fiancée died.
I had extreme worry and fear and felt deep sadness. Depression and Anxiety. All a result of childhood trauma and feeling unsafe.
It feels good to know that someone understands you. And can explain to you what's wrong and how you got there. Thank you, Dr. Fox.
Yes!!!! Thank u so so much
You are such a knowledgeable, empathetic, clinically experienced psychologist, yet I am sick of seeing Jordan Peterson's face everywhere instead of yours. There's no justice in the world.
Dr Fox really focuses on being a psychologist and the mental health needs people have. Jordan Peterson switched fields and became (formally or informally I'm not sure) some kind of political philosopher--but also Peterson generally seems to try to cultivate an image of having expertise in every topic he takes an interest in, or every hot political topic of the day, then leading it all somehow to vague but highly resentful politically oriented ramblings... whereas, by contrast, Dr Fox has a wholly different approach with his energy: Dr Fox demonstrates his expertise as a mental health professional by gearing his presentations around patient care, self help, and real life mental health needs.
My therapist just passed away from covid .. I was hoping you could discuss what should be done after such great loss and trauma. Thank you for all your videos.. they are a great help for so many people I believe.
Wow that is difficult to you. It was certainly horrible for your therapist!
What happend after that with you? I hope you are better and have another therapist🙏🏻.
I believe all humans are mentally insane; some just have been able to seemingly adapt better, especially their outside appearance, to an insane world.
That`s crazy.
That’s a mental illness comment.
@l.k.2337 I agree with you. In my opinion I also think that some people are just more skilled at deception and hiding their dysregulation and insanity and the "mentally ill" ones are just less skilled at hiding their insanity.
@@baneverything5580🙄Ugh are you serious with that troll under the bridge antagonistic sh*t? Go away the adults are having a meaningful dialogue here sharing our thoughtful OPINIONS, could you possibly be any more unoriginal and condescending?🤦♀️I'm sure you have absolutely no capacity for self awareness or introspection.
I couldn’t agree more… this world is INSANE 😢
Hey Dr. Fox, great video as always! 💌 so theres.. a few, things I wish you could go over heheh if you ever need future video ideas 😋
• the difference between Adult ADD, and BPD
•the differences between vulnerable narcissists and BPD
•Rejection sensitivity vs fear of abandonment
•The 3 types of fatigue and how they affect P.D's
•BPD and inattentive, or cold behaviors
Love & Respect Dr. Fox ! 😊
1-17 ✅😞
I've been seeing doctors since I was 12 or 13 and I am 38! I have lost hope in feeling "normal" or "better."
Don't be so hard on yourself it's genetic environmental an a DISABILITY BPD is lifelong an there's ssdi assistance
@@im_saved_by_grace thank you and I filed for disability. I am just waiting to hear back from them. It's just so debilitating. I am receiving DBT therapy but I am low income without insurance so hopefully I am approved and soon.
Wish you the best of luck 🌼
@@GEENIAH3 thank you💜
try goin to a church maybe it can be demonic and you need deliverence maybe
I see no way out of my mental illness it would be nice to feel normal. Great video!
Wish this was something that my parents understood when I was a teenager. Thanks for being a positive source of information Dr Fox.
i dont act out any more because it hurts my life, but i still feel like i should, i still believe people are trying to hurt me, i just dont act on it. It works for relationships but im constantly invalidating myself and it destroys my self esteem
we are so lucky to have you🌸
I have ALL of the 17 signs of BPD pretty bad. I'm 44 yrs old and I only found out about 1 year ago that's what I have. I used to look for it online thinking it might be bipolar but that didn't fit 100% with what I was feeling. But when I saw BPD symptoms it's like a light switch came up. I still haven't gone to my doctor because I am ashamed of not having gone sooner and worry what she is going to think of me and also I'm wondering if medication would actually improve or not. The word here is AFRAID of what people are going to think.
You are worth IT. Expérienced all of those and have a lot of work to Do still but shame and doubt in yourself is ok you are Who you are nobody is perfect 💓 try to be positive about the future and take care of yourself
You deserve help like everyone else.
There is no shame .. Please get help without delay
Absolutely amazing information...we have created the ideal environment for a perfect storm for our children with the way we live. The tsunami of health disorders it will bring in in the years to come is a scary scary thought.
Love what you do doc ..we need more coffee table conversations like this with practical advise for adults.. more than kids.
@@enaquasanitas7017 can I ask?? What did u mean "mistake harming with preparing"..
@@enaquasanitas7017 thanks a lot! Understood now what u've meant in first place. Yes, indeed! It's this generational trauma which can have a great negative impact on the way we raise our kids. Unfortunately, most of us aren't aware of that.
Gabor Maté has got a few great videos to that subject.
Again thanks for replying, wishing u all the best :)
I wish this video could have come out 10 years ago when I was in college. Its odd finally hearing all of the things I've felt internally being so succinctly described. I used to bash my self so heavily for not being as social and energetic and connected as others. I just thought I wasn't trying hard enough which would send me into a perpetual cycle of self hate and trying to push though the social withdrawal, reading and writing issues, and anger. So glad I am getting treatment finally.
I'd just rather not view myself as mentally ill and see my suffering for what it is. I wish more people knew that was an option for them.
A large problem is that mental illness causes socioeconomic dysfunction but treatment requires money which is scarce when life is falling or fell apart.
Very well explained! Thank you!🌼
Dr. Fox you are so brilliant. Always, answering the thought-questions that I have! So thank you!
This is a very helpful video. Thank you!
Thx for this video!! I really really really love the fact, that you differentiate. Sometimes I also think .. well .. in one way or another we are all like that, where do you draw something like a line. Providing this kind of rough starting point I really like.
It's so calming to finally have some answers about myself .
Just initiated (not even started) a family consultation as I was advised to better call it instead of family therapy and I'm really looking forward to that, especially to help the kids cope with our somewhat recent breakup. Now after watching this video I'm hoping even more to find help there. We've got psychological issues involved in several members, me and at least one of our sons seem to have a tendency to Asperger's, so it's sometimes hard to understand the deeper levels of communication, especially as another kid and my ex tend to be very emotional at times which usually leaves us possible aspies baffled and surely behave less than optimal from time to time.
There are issues but it's going to get better hopefully. At least there's light at the end of the tunnel!
Wonderful to see you Dr Fox,RESPECT!!This is very well laid out.Depression has haunted me for years,I fight it all the time,I’m guessing that’s a good thing rather than not care!🇨🇦
That was great. Thank you
This was very educational and helpful Dr. Fox! Thank you always😊
This was very informative. I was able to resonate with a lot of this. I really liked how you broke it down. Thank you for this video.
This is helpful in so many ways thank you = it helps do a look at self honestly = it helps parents / family = it helps whit targeted operation & the list goes on ... Thank You 🙋♀️
My bpd is very hard to control but at least ive learned to deal with IT better. Deep inside i know im broken but im still believing in myself. Dr Fox is our best Friend. Merci trop 🤓
Thank you Doc.Deniel Fox for your explanation.Your a big help to us,my daughter is suffering of mental illness (anxiety)God Bless You 🙏❤️
Thank you for sharing 💖💖💖
You are so welcome
Wow..17 !.. deciphering all of them ! My life matters too much to do this!
Hello dr I'm a big fan❤❤ thank u for everything
I love this . Describing me to the tee. If only other people would understand
Your videos are very helpful. 👍🇿🇦
Thank you for your videos.
Glad you like them!
God you so get it, you're the only health professional I watch.
Very good thank you
I'm so glad this video was helpful for you. I wish you well.
Hi, really like this. It would be so important to make this awareness at all age levels. Just regarding the #12, wouldn't it be difficult for a person who does not have good insights about his emotional state to identify this particular point in themselves?
hi ended up from a rabbit hole from dr Ramani lets listen to your video
2021... i wish their was some contant like this when i was younger... i know u cant diagnostic someone under 18 for developpement but still im consulting since im around 5-6 and i got diagnost around at 25 so...
ty dr fox i always relie to your video... i always think u are straightly talking to me XD or about me
Disorganized thinking I just started a job at a factory i zone in an out so much replaying trauma hating myself loud intrusive thoughts i cant do that on the line im hoping that helps a lil
Thanks
Welcome
Interesting that keto eating came up. I feel loads better when I'm not taking sugar / carbs. My body aches less, has more sustained energy, and have less brain fog. Cheers, Doctor.
Can only back that. Even as a T1 diabetic and even though that's contrary to what my doc advises it's way way better (have to adapt a bit, though).
Due to this and a few other things I can only recommend to also think for yourself. Don't overestimate your abilities, especially on meds, but a bit of experimentation with food and exercise seldom does any harm as long as you're honest to yourself and you don't just do something but see it as an experiment. Try it out, see what happens, if it has a negative effect, leave it.
Lol this is level one psychology Dave! And who gave me health insurance? Cause I apperently have it. Damnit David
Stop typing random words
I was showing several signs of trauma and depression growing up. I was abused at home, and my mom absolutely failed in keeping me safe or validating my feelings. I sometimes wonder if she would have gotten me help if she had had access to information like this.
dr fox you are a great guy and i love your videos but as a 20 year old your social media words/descriptions cracked me up
I really dislike hearing people are feeling entitled when they are frustrated over something broken or not working properly. Just adds to the lids put over people that squashes humaness. Then wonder why expressions get made in 'mentally ill' ways.
Thank you doctor! I'm wishing to know something more about theory of structural dissociation of personality or to be precise secondary stage which is correlated with BPD caused by early childhood trauma. There's very little studies that can be found online. I'm wondering if it's possible for folks who experienced severe childhood trauma to actually develop a integrated sens of self through some kind of psychotherapy.
I know a woman that
was & still is very angry & has a non stop rage on her kids & her husband . She is a survivor of the Holocaust in Poland .she was 6 years old when the war broke/ started . What do you think it is ? 30-35 years ago she told me that she admired her father so much that she used to hide under the table so he
won't bit her up . So I told her its fear not admiration , still during all the years the were at home she abused all her kids, hitting them / bittint them up & talking to them in a very critical negative ways .
That's too sad gosh 😑
Dr Fox:
1. My bpd dumped me because I was not perfect :)
2. Rolling Stones... sympathy for the devil... they were lead by some shade people in showbusinnes. You are in Cali, so you know the occultists are real.
3. Thx for good summary!
I’m glad that you found the video helpful and that you’ve developed some good insight for yourself.
What do the results of the "test" mean? How to put it in a context?
I hate how right, true this is.
What to do when get excited then overwhelmed; and brain hurts?
Your very clear where the command folks don't know all the medical terms
Common people
Thanks 😊
I am been trying to find a doctor to get help and I don't want to end up in medical health jail being told the same thing over and over again that didn't help any more or getting a shot or restrained
To Improperly Labeled Loser,
I think that you have brought up a very interesting set of differences to discuss for the doctor.
Reassurance in our society is in short supply and I tend to think that our society is over- psycholagised! Which is not a word but one that I made up.
Too many amateur , non objective, or in a hurry to put a lable on it. If the home environment is stable then things can be optimal in most cases.
Many environments babies grow up in are not.
Abuse is not reported and under-reported.
Many parents do not have the psychological tools to navigate the great demands of parenthood.
Many of them had one or more parents and siblings who were allowed to abuse the baby , or child, and it is not stopped or curtailed in any way.
So the individual grows up in an unstable, unsafe environment.
Somatic illness is the outcome in the very young.
The doctor knows how common this is.
Will the doctor check the environment?
Probably not. Something is wrong obviously!
So how many years ago by with no hope in sight that help will come!
Too many usually and people , parents, siblings, will not likely admit to their wrongdoing and it can always be blamed on the victim.
Usually this is the case.
No one is a loser.
But no one gets to win all the time either.
Reassurance and hope is so important. Stable people a must.
Who is going to intervene?
Skilled practitioners who posses a degree of objectivity. Ability to put their own bias aside.
Getting a therapist who is a good fit who is interested in the family healing not just the individual. The family has to be willing to change and be good to each other
Just a warning- some neurological disorders can cause hallucinations and dissociation. I just found out I have lesions on my brain from chronic migraine- after being misdiagnosed with, and treated for, bipolar with psychotic features for over a decade.
My precious wife definitely has BPD. But it is so vexing for her to gain the understanding she needs to learn how to recognize and deal with the maladaptive thought processes. I'm doing all the research I can to try to overcome this from a standpoint of understanding how to deal with the mood swings and delusional Behavior. I'm really trying to understand it's like when she gets triggered it's like there's somebody abusing her but it's not real. I don't know how to address this really. I have a good enough understanding about this disorder to not let it affect me and to just love her through it but is there a way for her to get healing from this without the dressing it directly
My twin sister and I lived through years of drugging and torture and sexual abuse. We both have lifelong mental illness. My poor twin died in 2013. I earn a living as a live-in caregiver.
I certainly understand it's difficult. This is something you may want to discuss with a mental health provider.
i have all symptoms expect alcohol or drugs. What should i do?
What ive been telling my son.
Those telephones may be used when in use when your life is in threat... Like 911 calls..don't hesitate if your or someone else's life is being threatened
Hallucinations????!?! Is this guy on crack? Or been selling it? Encouraging people to do LSD???? If I would go to DEA.gov to report this man but I don't have any address to report this man
*takes out notebook and starts taking notes incase it's actually talking about me*
Alright Doc let's hear the damn truth
Dr. Fox. What would you say about someone with BPD who is highly sensitive. Having 3 unplanned pregnancies...my 3rd I want to do adoption for because I realize I am very sick. Especially after watching this. It's difficult enough for me to take care for myself..I haven't even washed my dishes in weeks...where could I go to get support in order to do this...
I have a video on how to find a therapist that may provide options for you.
Please also get an IUD. If you don’t have health insurance, check with Planned Parenthood - they will help you. Wishing you and your children the best.
You are stronger then your illness. Keep fighting ✊
I find it so hard to get mental help I've been waiting over 6 months to talk to someone I'm trying to stay off drugs I'm 5month &14days clean but I feel like ill be back on drugs soon if i don't get better help soon I feel like i did when i was a kid stressed all the time
I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling to get the help you need. It can be really frustrating when the wait times are so long. Hang in there, and keep reaching out for support. You're not alone in this.
No. I talk to myself just for fun. I could stop but I'm hilarious.
Not everything g is a mental health condition I've worked very hard I have a tumor near mt spine can't walk foot drop
hello doc i wish to Share you my mental problem
If I score 17 out of 17 for most of my life can i has a meaningless interwebs medal ?
As always thank you dr fox :)
What is dopamine? What is energy? Lol 😩😩😩
I have a lot of these problems
I think recognizing that these are issues for you is an important first step. The next would be to find adaptive strategies to take the place of the maladaptive ones. I wish you all the best.
I have one thing on the list. Guess I have to chalk up my swaggar as brain damage.
Lol I am totally bipolar and ADHD.
I'm totally medicated. Not for ADHD but ADHD meds are for people with like jobs and like stuff to do.
I don't WANT to do stuff that ADHD meds is for. That becomes responsible and like, adult.
Ugh
I have a question. Is schizoprenia relating to mental illness also?
Schizophrenia is a mental
Illness.
Agreed, the moments where I feel like, Oh... Lets try this human interaction thing again...
It's always a huge mistake.
It's nice to have you say, imperfections are great ect... But you're only 1 Mr. Fox... And the rest of the world just puts you in the trash when you're not. Constantly being told by people how i need to be different.
Stop pulling my arms into all directions... it hurts!
People: Just be you
Me: *is me*
People: NOT LIKE THAT!
Would you appear on JRE if asked?
'Twittererer--' good one ☺️
Thanks
I wish you were my therapist
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad that my videos have resonated with you in such a way. Remember, it's always important to seek professional help when it comes to therapy, but I'm here to provide support and encouragement through my content.
@@DrDanielFox you definitely do, thank you

I’m glad you found this video helpful. I wish you well.
Okay ppl..
Calm down...some.of you here are getting really triggered...he is talking about an umbrella of symptoms...that you DO develop by being exposed to the world and life (ilness, bad people, parents, stressors, trauma, hormones etc).
I already ask my doctor and as Long as whoever "Dave" is who spies on me via UA-cam and uses Bird robot drones to follow me around town, as long as he's not asking for money, nudes, sex or access to my house or account numbers/pin #/Bank account, then mostly I'm just regular level of crazy.
(And I talk to myself openly even in public just for fun)
👍👍👍
Why do I have all the symptoms
Examine your core content. This is a critical first step.

I believe that I have a narcissistic mother and I’m enduring a lot of hurt. I’m 25 years old and It is all making sense.

When you want to IMITATE a woman and you are a male....
A lot of what you listed are NORMAL responses to our highly stressful, UNETHICAL world. Also, I feel you are somewhat victim blaming because dealing with some of the TRULY PATHOLOGICAL people in our world, could cause anyone to feel some of these things.
Also, dealing with physical illness such as cancer. Dealing with a child with severe autism (and the “system” there to “help”). Dealing with a loved one who is an addict. Dealing with job loss. Being in a major MVA. And the list goes on and on and on. Labelling people as “mentally ill” without considering multi factorial influences is wrong and HARMFUL. And you deal with ETHICS?? 😂😂
The only thing this video is good for is (your professions) business.
Narcissists love using mental illness against their victims.. they’ll thank you for giving them the ammo to use. A lot of they’re symptoms are caused by others. But you’re into victim blaming and shaming it seems. Cluster B is normal??? This video is kind of victimizing those in car accidents Lyme disease etc etc. but you wouldn’t be able to see that, could you...
What are u talking about
wat?
What happens if you have all these symptoms???????
Focus on the ones that are most problematic.
plz and plz check a friend of mine. Anthony nrmo borderline personaility songs. they guy did these in 1994/5 when no1 wanted to hear mental illness even though he was a government adviser for years and supported people online for the past 30 yrs and never takes praise or ever been paid as he also has mental illness. seems ever singer, sports personality or movie star say they have a mental illness it is the norm. he fought ever1 and still do. no 1 ever talks about what he did. ty even if u check his 4 songs and then compair to now and truth
Great!
