You are not afraid of planes or flying. You are afraid of having panic attacks
My social anxiety was treated at SUNY Downstate Hospital in Brooklyn. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is quite effective at treating Social Anxiety
You're not alone. I've suffered from anxiety/ panic attacks on and off for 30 years... I loved this video and thank you for being so candid. ✌️❤️
Thanks for watching Tami!
Thanks for sharing your experiences and being vulnerable about overcoming those downfalls over the years
Thanks ! I'm glad you enjoyed it
Great topic, so many people around the world battle anxiety and depression every day! I have had so many things to battle against in the last twenty y ears it's crazy but it won't beat me! So candid and honest of you Tal to address shit like this. Remember though, it's just like a hamster on a wheel, it runs like fuck and gets nowhere. Just like Bob Marley said, "Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, not but ourselves can free our minds" (Redemption Song). Love you a long time Tal xx
Beautiful way to put it
We lost a fellow New Yorker to mental illness, Etika. Mental health is a big issue in this country and it needs to be addressed and solved
Hahahahaha. Good luck with that. Americans are basically complacent and loves to do nothing about it. Mental illness has been rising and your private servants will never do anything about coz thats what their donors want.
rip to Etika
@@eisernfront8549 says the kid with an Adam lanza pic wtf
Hi Tal…. you’re not alone!!!! What a revelation…. But… you’re a champion…. You’re stronger than what you think…God is faithful!!!! Shalom!!!
Finally got around to watching this. Didn't know this stuff about you, very proud of you for sharing !!
Love u brp
Well you are definitely not alone either . There are a lot of us out here who suffer from depression and anxiety. ❤️ ur channel.
Love you
TheTravelingClatt 🤗🤗🤗
Thanks for sharing! I deal with anxiety and depression daily. It's more anxiety mixed with a little depression. Thank you for talking about this and using your platform to speak on it. Anyone reading this comment trust you are not alone you are not the only one with these problems. I love how mental health is now being talked about. Thanks Tal love all your videos keep up the good work!
Thanks for opening up friend
Tal, you are not alone! I have suffered from severe OCD and related anxiety. For a period I was catatonic and was stuck in bed all day. You have inspired me to travel and even produce content for youtube. Know that you affect people's lives through your content. Wishing you all the best!
You got this, Tal! You've won this battle before and you can do that again ❤ Always take care and if ever you need someone to talk to about anything, always remember that I'm here!
Thanks Lexie! Your the best!
That heart monitor scared me to death! I've been dealing with a ton of the same stuff... i'm so glad you are getting this checked out... i'm here if you need to talk
Thank you!
@@TheTravelingClatt your the best. Take care.
TheTravelingClatt Thank you so much for sharing your story. It means a lot. I have gone through similar things... a lot of us have! Many many hugs and look how wonderful you have done for yourself! Plus it benefits others! Wonderful. Thank you.
Thank you! For watching!
Wow thank you so much for sharing your health condition. You look fantastic and healthy but at the same time take care yourself and keep smiling. Love you. You are in Miami
Thank you! Love you too!
Bro.. I have been feeling like thia for years...is has really affected me emotionally and financially... I am really glad I found your channel
Welcome back to the world of anxiety and panic. It goes in waves. It often gets easier to manage as time goes on :)
I think so
Hello, I have had depression and anxiety since I was in my teens. This has been a life long issue for me. You will get though it. Talking is the best therapy. You are doing ok. You get out every day. That is great. It is a life long condition, but you will learn to cope with it. As you know some days are better than others, you are doing fine.
100%
Very honest of you....take care.
Will do!
Thank you for sharing this. You're genuine and cool. Keep up with the good work.
Good on you for sharing this. Its easy for everyone watching travel vloggers (and vloggers in general) to feel bad because the videos they see don't touch on the challenges and dark sides of the human experience. Keep doing what you are doing, and best of luck to find a way through your challenges.
Will do
Now that’s an awesome spot for a walk and talk!
Tisss
You are definitely not alone!!
Respect for you that you tell your story. 😘
Thanks!
I went through this from approx. age 13 to my early 20's.
In the beginning, I tried to hide it, which makes it worse.
You're honest about it. You are aware of what symptoms you are going through.
You are fighting it.
You have goals , hobbies, and friendships that will help fend this.
I know it's not the same for everyone, but you can beat this.
When the attacks happened to me, I always tried to detach myself from the situation.
"My heart is racing, but I'm fine, no dangers, good people around me...." And somehow, the attack dissipated.
Exercise and the ukelele you play are definitely the way to go.
Keep doing what you love and being with who you love. Go at your pace.
You got this, brother!
Love ya! Thanks
The openness you have about this is truly inspiring. Thank you.
Wonderful story, I struggle with my own mental health issues everyday because of the trauma I went through and nobody is gonna do it for me 🙄
Amen you gotta take care of it yourself!
Hi Tal stay as driven and positive as you are! You are a great inspiration to many! The change you want to make for the better is an awesome plan! Stay strong you can do this! Take care of yourself! Can't wait for the new vlog!
Thanks Ate!
Amazing video!! Thank you for sharing it ✈️
Wow. I landed on your channel because I suffered from panic attacks during my stay in Israel and could not enter the plane to get back home anymore. I found your video because I will be going back on the same cargo boat like you to Italy. I really hope the long ride will give me some timeout and calm. Thank you for sharing those videos
Tal, I think it's both generous and brave for you to share these things. Watching you over the years, I have a lot of respect for your journey. Thanks for being you, and if you're ever in the SF Bay Area, I hope you get in touch. I'm proud to call myself a supporter of yours bro.
100% man. Thank you so much for the constant support
@@TheTravelingClatt if you make it out this way, I'll even take you to Jollibee
Thank you so much for this. Opening helps controlling it. You're creating a support network and helps control it. I guess your significant other is an important support too. You're not ignorant now. It makes you stronger. You're not alone now and I'm sure you'll be back traveling soon.
Yes sir!
I am so pleased to have found your channel - not just because of my love of watching travel experiences, but for your personality and honesty. This was a very insightful video and so much of it resonated with me for a number of reasons. Thank you for sharing this video and I’m excited to catch up with more of your uploads now! 😊👍🏼✨
My pleasure!
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Mental health is hard to talk about, thank you for sharing.
I am currently experiencing this and learning to deal with it. I have two months of travel to the USA coming up in a week so im hoping the trip will help me. Thank you for this video, makes me feel like I'm not the only one.
I felt that way but single and with child. I had no parents to go to.
Keep positive and you are doing the right thing by dealing with it and making changes
Nice great video liked and added to my playlist
Thank you for sharing. Mindful awareness about your personal experience is so important, and there should be no stigma.
First time seeing this video. I'm a new subscriber. I have had panic attacks since childhood, which turned into agoriphobia (fear of public places). This kept me inprisoned in my home for years. The panic attacks turned into heart palpitations. I understand your fears and your desire for freedom. You can be free because I conquered 5 years now. I heard once: FEAR-False Evidence Appearing Real. The Conquerer lives in your Spirit; it is always there. Let it out!
You’re doing an amazing thing by sharing this. Thank you x
Hollywood Florida ♥️
Great video Tal, many of us are travelling that journey with you.
Looks like you are back in Miami again. The Nice Sand and Sea to me is the best cure for my own stress and depression the few times a Year I get there. As a Therapist in my full time I can understand the varied issues depression and anxiety have on a person. It takes a lot of strength to fight and recover from as you really have to fight with your mind and it is a very smart opponent. I send you my best in your recovery, really love the videos and look forward to seeing more in the future.
Thank you friend. That means alot
672nd view, 85th like and 60th comment. Thank you and bless you for sharing your life ups and downs. As many have already commented, thanks for sharing, this is not a topic easy to speak on. I have been treating anxiety and depression for years with medication and counseling. I am fortunate to have a wonderful counselor, it can be hard to find that one person you “click” with. Hopefully you and those I’ve read in the comments may be encouragement for someone in need of help. Love ❤️ and hugs 🤗
Much hugs back
Thank you for sharing. Your not alone. One day at a time. Baby steps. 😩💜👂👀💪🙌🙏
This is a good topic to discuss! Traveling I feel especially traveling solo in certain places can be a good thing as well as meet new people. I myself have been struggling with Mental Health even though it has been off and on the past few years but this past winter break was definitely a Wakeup call. Back in December the day I came back from California I had a very bad panic attack until I was admitted into an Inpatient Facility. I'm really glad that you've been able to open up this discussion and how we can overcome it! I've been watching your videos on NYC and let me just say I was able to visit some of the places you have recommended on your channel. Hopefully, we can meet soon while I'm in Miami next month! Come swing by to Tampa and I can show you around!
I'd love that! Hit me up when ur in Miami homie!
you're hella strong. keep doing you!❤
Hey thanks
This is so inspiring love to see it!
Accutane, heart monitor, stress, world traveler.
We're brothers under the skin. Been there, done that. You're going to be fine. You're mostly already there but don't know it yet.
Next time you're back in NYC, we need to share a meal. My treat.
Your not alone ...
Thank you Mathew
I also get palpitations and heart spasm episodes from stress. When I wore a heart monitor it was this big clunky thing on a lanyard with all the fun wires...sooo much fun... I also used to have panic attacks almost every night, but they suddenly ended out of nowhere 5 years ago. I still suffer from palpitations, but it's nice to know that someone else out there had the same issue as me. When I get the spasm episodes, if I bend over or lay down the blood rushing to my head stops the spasms and palpitations.
When I'd have a panic attack, it would pass more quickly if I sat in the corner of an open room with someone with me but no talking with either the radio on or the TV on, or just sipping on water and focussing on breathing. For my heart palpitations and spasms, I'm on a low dose beta blocker and it's been helping some. I also went through all the testing and was told my heart is healthy and that I was 'fine'. Many doctors say to stretch in the mornings, exercise, eat well, and do breathing exercises.
Crazy you have literally the same symptoms as me
Been there with anxiety... Without knowing it for some time. Still suffering but seems more under control lately. Came to a head last year when the stress of my job etc caused my body to shut down and lost a lot of weight (my lowest weight was 7stone 10 pounds at one point, iam 5ft 6"). My wife hated being around me, I lost interest in my hobbies. I finally went to the doctors after a friend and my wife forced me to go. I am getting better with some small set backs but feel more happy-go-lucky now. Good health to you all ❤️
Thank you! To you as well! Glad your getting better!
Awesome video. I'm glad you are better now.
Thank you!
@@TheTravelingClatt not enough people talk about this kind of stuff. This really can happen to anyone.
Hollywood Beach, FL. Oh noes! He be a-travelin' now! ✌️
He'll yehahhhh
This video was suggested to me by YT.
It was good to know that traveling help you all the way but seeing that thing connected to ur body worried me. What about now? I know u are back in the US, i hope you are doing well after that all struggles after the typhoon. I love you man. Please take good care of yourself and hopefully u can travel again and be back in the Philipines. I am really hoping you are alright nowadays.
You really look so good on this video😜✌🏼
I had panic attacks as well. They came out of nowhere. Luckily I was 40 so could deal with them a little better. But what really got rid of them was medication. Clonazapam. 25mg. After 2 weeks I never had another panic attack. That was 15 years ago.
Thanks for sharing! I deal with anxiety and depression since my early 20's and on june 28th i will be 38 i'm on pills for it too as it helps me alot that heart monitor scared me when i saw it on you i'm glad you are doing great and hopefully the heart monitor can be removed soon. If you wanna talk im here for you.
Thanks Michael
Thanks for not letting me know you are in Florida. I would have gone down to see you. I'm sad!
Same bro for 7 years 💪
Thank you for making this video and sharing about what you've been going through. I've also had some issues with depression off and on in my life and I feel that travel is pretty much the most important thing to me. I wish I could do more, but the darn job holds me back. Also, due to some medical issues I can't do what I used to. I feel I need to focus and get on track! I've done a monitor and I had some extra heartbeats here and there brought on by stress. I'll be so interested to hear if you share your results. You're amazing!! ♡♡
Ugh and I'm such a perfectionist about things that I had to correct my comment! Geesh.
Thanks Gayle! ❤️❤️❤️
Dude i dealt with the same thing it started in dec.2016 had a panic attack so bad i felt like i literally was gonna die...my heart was pounding so hard and fast i was convinced it was gonna just give up on me and just stop... one person whos videos have helped me bring myself to balance and understanding was a man named SADHGURU youtube search him and go on a little inner journey like exploration. ALLEN WATTS is another smart dude.
Thank you! I'll check them out!
TheTravelingClatt Definitely check out Alan Watts, his recordings helped me as well so I highly recommend it! I like the ones with music in the background 😌
I had bad acne as well as a teen. It started around 10th grade and by junior year it was full blown. I went to my derm and he put me on Acuttane as well. I had only physical symptoms, basically dry cracked lips constantly even with constant lip balm, and I guess my blood was drying out too because I had have my blood monitored every 2 weeks and the blood would clot in the normal sized needle. So they had to stick a harpoon sized on in my arm each time. Thankfully it worked great and after 6 months.....not one pimple and never again after that forrrrrrrrrr 25 years now. And it was a bad case. In just 1 year I already had the tell tail acne scars on my middle cheeks.
Hey you old fucker, I'm back. I missed my little clatt but now that I know the meaning behind Clatt I will follow you everywhere
Jesus man. I thought we took care of you...m
It sounds like it was cystic acne you had, and as if it was treated with something like Acutane?.. If im right, guess how i knew :-). Imagine if a bone fracture was being seen the same way mental health problems generally are. "Give it time, it'll pass", "are'you not being a bit overdramatic" or "it's probably his own fault".. Thank you for this vlog Tal. Mental health problems, should never be tabu for anyone
I agree! And yes it was Acutane!
T. T. C.,, SHALOM,, ARE YOU IN CANCUN??? HA!!! WOW YOUR VIDEO IS A GREAT HELP TO ME NOW TO THIS DAY,,.. AND FOR THE PASS I NEED TO LET IT BE IN THE PASS .. I HAD A AWFUL ACNE PROUBLE ALSO,, SOME PEOPLE USE TO TELL ME ARE YOU OK ... I HAD IT ON MY FACE ,, IT BAD PEOPLE SEE YOUR FACE FIRST,, AND ON MY BACK SO BAD!!! AND SOME ON MY CHEST..

BUILD YOUR NEW HOME AGAIN WITH YOUR FRIENDS IN THE PHILLPPINES .. SHALOM ,,TODAH!!! BE WELL....
Try listening to relaxing calming sounds. Try some camomile tea. A relaxing bath.
Aimee from Kinging-it deals with travel anxiety which includes passing out and her fix seems to be propranolol. You likely know that Craig calls her Travel Sick Tracy amongst other things! Panic attacks are obviously scary and it’s good you are comforted by the test results and monitoring.
Yeah I just got prescribed propranolol! I'm not sure I want to use it!
TheTravelingClatt, I appreciate how you may feel about drugs but please try it. Its safe and could change your life. You may not have to use it forever. I even know doctors who have used it when sitting exams.
CPAP machine has helped me some. Most nights I struggle to wear it but when I do it has helped some with my anxiety. One night I didn't want to go back to sleep but was extremely tired and I didn't know why. I did a study and found that I would stop breathing (10 seconds or more) 17 to 22 times an hour.
Damn that's cray
You are in Dustin Florida!
I’m glad you are okay, but the bee just wanted to be in the walk and talk
Lmfao yeah he was probably a clatt
I had the anxiety, heart palpitations or what I thought were, and all the tests came back with nothing, and it all went away. I think it was just stress, and anxiety about being stressed.
Thanks for sharing - it takes courage to open up about these topics. I think it’s extremely positive to feel tired of dealing with all this, and ready to move on; on the other hand, be prepared to experience some frustration, because as other people pointed out, mental issues tend to come and go in life, and then again come back. It’s mostly all about becoming stronger, and getting better at focusing on our power of resilience , in order to learn how to live with them without feeling overwhelmed. If I may suggest some strategy, try not to focus on how these issues inhibit you from living your life the way you imagine it, because this could cause the issues to gain more power, and sum up to even more anxiety. I have personally felt considering the issues as a part of my life experience to be more effective, and accepting them as a source of growth that taught me how to get better at using my resources. That’s at least what works better for me, hope this could be helpful in some way. Thanks for your great videos, take care!
I'm excited to get over this period! The future is looking bright!
Love you and thank you!!😎. Ps there are meds to help with flights! Lorazepam!!!!
I'll look into it! Thanks!
Get started on an exercise and diet plan, see a nutritionist and doctor to help you lose weight and reduce stress, as well as, build confidence.
I subbed because I have been dealing with the same issues.I sometimes get weird heart palpitations when I lie down,even in my sleep if I am having a bad dream or feeling stressed.
I don't know if its due to my current situation where things have not gone the way I wanted to.
Sometimes I feel really dissapointed in the outcome of my life,where success seems far from me at the moment.I just hope I can resolve all this.
yah….
I feel you..
ok but can we look at how nice the beach is
Bro use Ashwagandha, L-Theanine, Rhodiola Rosea, or Black Seed Oil. I promise you your anxiety will go away
Research them yo seriously. Thanks for sharing this
WOW. This video is absolutely amazing. My story is quite similar. I used to travel all around the world (back and forth to the PI for summer) and once i turned 25, it's like a light bulb switched (off), I've been trying to face it head on by traveling as much as I can, staying in the US haha. However, I know that there are underlying issues to my GAD. Have you tried adaptogenic mushrooms and ashwaganda? I swear these supplements have changed the way that I think. Keep your head up! There's ALWAYS going to be a light at the end of the tunnel.
I haven't! Not even sure what that is to be honest but thanks for the suggestions
TheTravelingClatt Ashwaganda is a root (I believe 😅🤔) and the mushrooms are usually a mix of all different types of mushrooms (shiitake, chaga, lions mane) both of these are considered to be “adaptogens” and when taken daily like vitamins they help your body “adapt” and cope to daily stressors and triggers, both subconsciously and consciously. Living with general anxiety disorder, I get triggered DAILY 😅, but I’ve noticed my ability to rationalize my thoughts have improved since taking these adaptogens 👌🏽.
Panama city beach
Tru say I think being stuck in ur head is bad n traveling doing wat u like can get u out of ur head n live
I'm from the UK and took the same drug you took it killed be I'm still anxious and have major problems 10 years after the drug not good... Yes it cured my acne but at a very high price
❤❤
You have recovered
I think so
Magnesium and potassium please and watch drberg on UA-cam.

😭😭😭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰🥰🥰
You are obviously in Florida. I would guess Boynton Beach.
Wrongggg
Did you take Accutane?
Dude, you need to draw a line in the sand, in your head. I'm a Special Forces team guy that concord this myself, same as my team brothers. 1. Stifle your emotions. Don't let them know. The fears and people I don't like, no one will ever know. 2. Talk with your doctor then remove the heart monitor, your stressing out yourself. 3. Shut your phone off at night and build something. Men need hand eye coordination and a result every day. 3. You have to many choices, your scattered without a defined direction. Make a three month plan and stick to it. 4. Wake up early, get your work out in every day. Most people aren't awake at that time, so it yours. 5. Self discipline. Maintain a schedule self imposed. Find your alarm clock. Wake up early and set it for sleep. Eat cleaner to fuel your system. Train Jujitsu to know your place then get better to improve it. 6. GET AFTER IT! No complacency, no backing down. In fact your stepping it up. 7. Last. Ego check brother. you dont need to worry about another panic issue because you'll quietly say to yourself "NO FACTOR".
Could you message me on Instagram I'd love to chat about this

First comment
Heyyy
Let me guess... The name of that medication begins with an A and rhymes with butane?
Good for you for having the courage to publicly talk about issues surrounding your mental health.
I went through this last summer heart monitor and all even MRI and nuclear stress test yes I went all in lol. They ruled out anything serious saying it was all anxiety provoked I swore up and down it was something more serious physically wrong with me but I think a year later I’m finally starting to accept they might be right smh. It didn’t make sense to me because like you I had accomplished many of my goals and dreams and couldn’t figure out for the life of me why I would be unhealthy at this point in my life made no sense at all. It’s not logical but it does have real life consequences and physical manifestations that will become real if not dealt with properly. I had a question besides vacations have you sought therapy for your anxiety and panic attacks?
I've been considering it. But I'm.still unsure
TheTravelingClatt it helped me tremendously especially when you click with the right therapist. Maybe you can try EMDR therapy to help with anxiety and past trauma or Hypnotherapy works for people as well depends on what works best for your psyche and comfort level overall. Do the research and see what you’re comfortable trying. Good luck!
You look much healthier. You lost weight I think and the beard and hair look neater. Never having experienced them, I have no insight on the mental health area. (I probably much older than your parents
btw).
Hey thanks rusty!
How's your relationship status?
Dead lol
@@TheTravelingClatt Did you have a gf or whatever relationship before?
Geographical cure.
100%
ב''ה, you ever find out if, as supposedly with me, you genetically lack/are deficient in the enzyme that converts beta carotene to vitamin A?
Obligate [Jewish?] carnivory surprise, although I'm not in the mood to look up the gene again or whether it's X-linked.
Anyway, means Accutane, as I missed out on, would be major overkill, but a standard amount of animal-form A over time is necessary/helpful. And sufficient D to balance if you're also deficient or have issues there as I might. Anyway, on the A thing, guess who was vegetarian and had terrible skin and perhaps other problems.
Prior to all that, the megadose B5 thing kinda also works for the dermatology and there was a lipid/endocrine metabolism theory with that. And dairy really triggers the sebum for some like myself for yet other obscure reasons.
I wonder if a bleach bath would have worked for the acne
Niceee
Those 'heart control' might be very uncomfortable to see.. but I totally can't take my eyes off of your hairy chest! Yass!!
You got this 🦾
