Managing Anxiety: Facing the "It's Not the Same"
Переглядів 1844 роки тому
As we practice social distancing, many aspects of our social lives are "not the same:" We go on virtual dates, have video-based conference calls, and see friends and family from the distance. I've noticed that many of us are hiding behind this "it's not the same" as a way to avoid doing things that would normally make us anxious, such as going on dates, participating in work meetings, or spendi...
Managing Feels About Reopening
Переглядів 984 роки тому
The process of "shutting down" (going into shelter-in-place, self-quarantining, practicing social distance) was relatively straightforward: there was a threat and we felt scared and anxious and so we retreated. But, the process of reopening is a lot more complex and comes with many additional emotions. So, on this video, I discuss a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) approach for making room fo...

On this video, I discuss a very important technique for managing worries and anxiety: timeboxing our worries! By setting aside a designated time to worry every day, we gain better control over our worrisome thoughts and can lower our anxiety.

How to network at academic conferences
Im an introvert and it takes a lot of energy for me to do standard group activities that have nothing to do with my interests . IE family gatherings or even phone calls . Now that things have fallen apart in my life again , I can only deal with a very small circle of close friends . Maybe Extroverts are able to re socialize quicker because they enjoy the crazy small talk ??
Do you do virtual for ocd
Control over the around and self is vital !
habits and sameness are survival !
Good explained medam but voice is v law without earphones can't here you thank you 🙏😊🇮🇳
So they can get u addicted to drugs
Why is the voice too low!? 😢
Is watching these videos a compulsion?
Only if your ocd is making you watch them over and over
Except this is not true even if you stay with the anxiety it will not go away permanently only temporarily and if you return to the situation the an xiety will return
Not true
How can a person have OCD on washing there hands, or having to wipe off their phone or re- washing a sock if it falls on the floor out of the dryer but, not clean their bathroom, empty the trash, or keep their house clean?
I went to a dinner show and was ready to leave during half time. Not fun eating elbow to elbow with strangers.
Most OCDs are not drug addicts and Neither should ever be treated as such because they're not! Treat all people with care and respect no matter what. That's actually the best medicine!
Thank you, I think I know what to talk about with my therapist. I think I'm a mix of both introversion with some social anxiety. Recently, I was ingratiated to attend a minor social event. Of course, I didn't want to attend, but I didn't want to be viewed as an asshole for not attending. So, I went... The fallout was devastating to me, as I started drinking heavily afterward, and took an opiate pain pill just to exacerbate the emotionally numbing effects of the alcohol. Yet, it seems to me, that the more extroverted personalities around you, want to intentionally put you in situations like this through peer pressure. I don't understand it, because it seems like they WANT to torture you!
I’m documenting my journey with Social Anxiety ua-cam.com/video/Dm80YehHWGY/v-deo.html
can i do this by myself without a therapist?
Thank you for this video, much appreciated!
Can cbt therapy is permanent cure for ocd...??
Thanks Doc. Regards from PH
Whatever you said is true and clears all the confusions about introverts and social anxiety

I really love your energy thankyou for yiur lovely videos I found you today on my way home.from work I have gad and adhd just wanted to say thankyou for your great work I wish you all the best x
Can you explain ways to engage individuals in group therapy? I am working with adolescents experiencing psychosis. We are targeting motivation through aspirations. I want my clients to engage and learn from one another while seeing the value in human connection. How do I structure group therapy/conversation around activities?
Sorry, I couldn't hear this video very well
Easy explanation. And the presentation is very impressive. Thanks Amelia.🙂🙂🙂
This information is really important for the project I am working on these days. Thank you!!!
I have some milder OCD and this video has given me some tools I can use to help manage it. Thank you for making this video!
Great one. Just an advise.If you can use mic maybe for louder audio🙏
Audio is fine. This is a veiled dig at her accent cope more
@@josejuja bro wtf
@Jose Obregon not at all. The video was very good. The accent is beautiful and does not in any way interfere with the information being clearly conveyed. The audio definitely needed to be a little more balanced. The mic was picking up a lot of background noise.
:0 I always tough I had social anxiety and consequently I was introvert but now I think I am somewhere in between introvert and extrovert with social anxiety
Realistically everybody is somewhere in between
I m an Ambivert with social ANXIETY :((
Excellent info
Cock ball torture for ocd??????!!?!?!?
Thank you. I was diagnosed with panic disorder and it’s awful. Yes. You never know when the next one will happen and they are awfully scary each time.s
Exactly ☺
What the difference between the group therapy and the family therapy? I hope to answer my question and thank you 🤍
Serious question.... if u had a client that had a ritual of masterbating would u make them keep doing it to get over it or stop it ?
Hi madam make a video for how to cure schizophrenia in the way of cognitive behavior theropy
I am an extrovert with social anxiety. My life is just frustration, worrying and sadness every single day. I am not the stereotype of extrovert like having lots of friends and going outside all of the time. I'm not like that, but I'm not originally quiet. Yes, I'm known as the quiet kid. That's not me, it's what people think I am. It's because I don't talk. I do have a lot of difficulty making friends. I do find it hard to start conversations. My social anxiety is ruining my life and nobody seems to understand it enough to let me be me.
I understand, it's hard. Our society is so judgmental, without even knowing what's going on our lives. But just try to help yourself by reading books that helps to careless about what people think about us.

Exactly 😢
I here that !
Can I have the both being introvert and have social anxiety cause sometimes i like to go out with my close friends but like once every 2 month or something and i get scared to interact with people and struggle to do some simple tasks like calling someone or for example asking help from a stranger when i need it like at the shop or something and btw good video 👍
Can you be a little.of both introvert and have social anxiety. I find myself very comfortable on my own thought more than most and its how I find balance in the chaos of the world but I do enjoy gatherings but feel like people are judging me and I compared myself to others in my head for no reason and this cause nervousness. Small talk also makes me feel uncomfortable as well . In my mind during small talk I find myself hoping it will end as soon as possible. Drinking makes is almost all go away which I know is bad but it is what it is ... When everyone is just living for the moment and enjoys life without all the akward interview small talk questions I find myself with much less anxiety or strange thoughts ....
I thought I might mention I have also managed to fake it so well like I don't have social anxiety people would never suspect it from me . This is almost more akward than having it keep you at home Lol. This is cause the entire time on out I'm narrating everything in my head as it happens lol
Madam please give ERP Therapy detail means please make a serie.in youbtube no one make it perfectly can you help madam please help
I love this idea! There's an old Jewish joke that a town decided to designate a chief worrier to worry on behalf of all the other townspeople. He was going to be paid a set stipend, until the elders decided that if he was getting paid a good salary, he would have nothing to worry about.
I have excruciating OCD. Its killing me
Writing down your worries helps you’re mind decipher ♥️♥️♥️
Very helpful information Thanks Slot Doc.
This is a perfect example of panic disorder Nancy pilosi and Adam Schiff 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I started having them when I turned 60 why this age I don't no I list my husband to cancer when he was 56 and I didn't have them then...its the most worse feeling in the world so many thoughts went thru my head even suicide I had it all planned out the doctor wouldn't give me any type of relaxer cuz of becoming addicted so I suffer everyday I have no reason they just happen...
Glad to know im not the only one that goes through this and that you can overcome it
Jose De aquino been going thru this for 3 years really fucked up my life
Great video, detailed enough to inform.. But not so much jargon we can't understand. Thank you.
So how do you get this panic attack going away?
