Good cards and great explanation. But I think the colors are a bit off. I think the greens should be red and the purple/magenta ones should be green. ( Schemas = bad = red. Solution = fix = green ) Just my thoughts. Also would be great if there was a pdf version available for a lower price for print outs.

Having a list of what keeps us awake and puts us to sleep might be handy to understand what is creating the sleep / awake pattern we have now. Think of the push and pull of magnets on a piece of steel. If we just introduce one more magnet to move the steel in the desired direction, we need to use more force to overcome the forces of other magnets. It might be easier to just direct a magnet already affecting the steel.

Try not speaking over each other all the time like you are at the pub and you will get your point over more effectively. When using Diazepam for alcohol withdrawal (usually a taper off, of 4-5- days) how long then does it take GABA/GLUTAMATE to return to normal levels.

Jess, your videos are great ! They are clear and practical, which is well adapted for me. Thanks !!

I have horrible severe physical anhedonia . I can’t enjoy touch, sex , eating , bathing or socialising . I can’t be in a relationship due to the sexual dysfunction. I’m also having trouble being sexually harassed and abused by certain men . This makes the anhedonia worse and makes it even more difficult to enjoy consensual sex . I am so distracted I can’t work or do anything productive because of how bad the bullying is

The problem with benzos is people use them to AVOID the anxiety. The more you avoid anxiety, the worse it gets. You need to learn how to face and accept the anxiety and let it run it's course. The teachings of Claire Weekes have helped many people completely recover from anxiety problems. It's not easy, but it's much better in the long run. If you are already on these drugs, NEVER stop cold turkey. Always taper off slowly at the advice of a medical professional.

She's really cute. But do we need a team here? She doesn't really do anything but listen!

Audio too quiet

These videos, frfr, aren't blaming parents or those who dissociated! Nope! Nope! Nope!!

This horrible medication randomly aused "emotional blunting" and later anhedonia in me at 25 mg taken "for sleep/against anxiety"... My psych doc didn't believe me when I said it was the med that caused it (I took it during the christmas holidays while not being overly stressed or having a legit bipolar episode, I merely slept badly for a couple of nights which worried them) and then they put me on 300 mg for its anti-depressant effect to try and treat the anhedonia. I wish I never listened to them in the first place and shouldn't had taken it... Now, half a year later, I'm tapering off and am kind of 60-70% recovered but my body and brain no longer works the smae way it used to; I can't feel much bodily anxiety or feelings of pleasure/joy specifically in my head any more (for example if I get frisson to good mudic it's only in the arms or chest not throughout the whole body and in the head as it was before).. Doctors handing out Anti-Psychotics "for sleep" are irresponsible as hell and I wish I never listened to them. I was heavily anxious but still a very FEELING person before taking Seroquel and I no longer trust psychiatry as much as I used to do.

My Anxiety is 1000 % worse since I've added 1.5. MG of Ativan to the daily equation. Instead of an intermittent bouts of panic, they are now an every day certainty. Life is now a constant battle to not feel dread.

US healthcare needs your help.

A bunch of violent domestics… I see those every night. Suicides? Yep been to more of those than I can count, being shot at numerous times, yep! Mass shootings? I’ve survived 3 of those. My brain is fucked. I haven’t been able To sleep a full night on 2 years. It’s like a raging river of all my bad thoughts at once, flowing through my mind and screaming at me. I fucking hate it. If you’re feeling this, please get help, because I’m just about done.

After taking dexamphetamine, I still catch whats going on and what people are talking about or explaining even tho im not paying attention at all. it is quite fascinating...

I take vyvanse and i have noticed my tolerance to it shifting. I skip weekend doses. It’s made a world of a difference.

Question: So I basically need to check the clock throughout the night?

Im almost 5 months sober and have been taking seroquel for sleep for almost 3 years. It works great for sleep with me, but i am going to talk to my doctor about weening off slowly. Excited but scared to take this leap and dont want it to mess with my sobriety, but ive quit nicotine and started fasting 5 days a week so i know i can do this. But one small step at a time. Im currently taking 75mg a night. Im going to drop down to 50mg for a month or more and so on

from 6:20 onwards is very essential information. : overcontrolling of emotions , no visible behavioural problem, actually getting REINFORCED by "society". this makes me wanna think about what other copings strategies are actually getting reinforced (!) as compared to others getting corrected by society ...

I am dealing with eating disorder (overeating until physically unwell and then eating some more) for the past few decades which has lead to me being overweight, even obese with my BMI being over 35. I have been prescribed Sertralin due to depression and I am on my second day: I am in the phase when I have little to no hunger during the day and not even thinking about eating, which is surprising knowing that the majority of my days are usually spent either eating or planning the next meal, what it should be, when I can finally eat it, when should I start preparing it, etc. I am obviously freaking out that after a few weeks on Sertralin it might get back to my usual behavior towards food or even more out of control. I can’t afford to gain more weight, so I am desperately hoping for a little miracle from this medication and hoping to end up with the appetite suppressing effect in the long term 🤞🏻

Effexor not only doesn't work for me but just the smallest dose makes me very sick & worsens my depression, very scary dark depression inducing chemical. For a few days makes me feel like I took some kind of poison & must kill myself. I recommend buying just a few capsules of lowest dose to see how one's body & mind reacts to this scary chemical. Doctors try to push it for huge numbers of capsules right from start probably financially motivated. Never taken just lowest dose of something so toxic ! I'm surprised Effexor helps some people, very strange they get good results !

Is luvox still banned in the USA?

Fantastic!! clear and insightful.

very helpful, and interesting nuance : I suddenly realized I skipped the step actually "accepting" my emotions yes, I acknowledged them, yes I allowed them. But really accepting (& understanding) them apparantly makes the difference. by doing that - all of a sudden I felt a big sense of relief in my body. as if a part of me could finally relax now I accepted the emotions :) makes sense. I guess I usually still judge that I feel the way I feel, below the surface

It would of been great if any of the dozens of medical professionals who prescribed quetiapine/seroquel to me over the last 15 years (I'm 33) for sleep and non-psychosis issues explained any of these issues to me. No mention of dopamine, mood blunting or affecting reward system. What are they teaching psychiatrists? What happened to informing patients, all I'm left with is feeling betrayed by those I'm told to trust, now I don't know what professionals I can rely on when I am needing help and guidance. It's frustrating

How many people know those words "If you don't stop crying I will give you something to cry about" How much better a place could the world be if no one has experienced of those words. It was a good video.

I’m just starting desvenlefaxine but am nervous about the brain zap that KZfaqrs talk about with weaning. I can’t find much about it.

I am in LOVE with this channel - the best side of the internet

Wow you really know what you’re talking about

thank yu

"I enjoy taking care of you" "I support your growth and development" some additional ones I learned that my inner child feels cared for and supported by :)

I prescribe Heroin on the street corner yet could potentially face severe criminal charges. If I am caught what'll happen to my patients. They'll go into withdrawal. Some might not make it. I prescribe Benzo's from my medical practice yet face no ramifications. I'm always there to prescribe more if needed. Some might not make it otherwise.

A lesson in the potentials of drug addiction. Legalised drug addiction at that.

I do a lot of push and pull

Loved it

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Good info. Poor audio..

Nursing student here and i have an exam tomorrow for my mental health class. This video has been excellent in my understanding of SSRI and SNRI effects qnd medicines. Appreciate you and your team so much!

The sensations in my body are ginormous. I can’t imagine a child feeling this way. It’s a lot of struggle. .

Psychologist interrupts alot! Let him complete his thoughts. Then ask your questions. Wait for your turn lady.

I think cognitive empathy is something that can be learned to some degree and people from DT can be masters at cognitive empathy but just in order to deceive and manipulate others. I think a lot of influencers in cultural and spritual spaces are like that. Maybe OSHO was example of this (or not) but some figures are obvious to people outside of the circle but I think there are many "leaders" which have DT but never will go into a conflict to be demasked. They will always be silent part of landscape and gets benefits and fame without real work that can help society. Well, they can play a role as integrator. Like ideological leader.

I feel better. Thank you.

Outstanding work! So very succinct and economical. Thank you!

It has taken away the itch that has been there since my teena when i first tried alcohol. I just don't feel like it for the first time in my life.

Prestiq heloed my fatigue and depression by 90 % but gage me hot flagses and anxiety which is unbearable .i have severe depression and severe anxiety.ao what is the option now .arent there any balanced medicine .which has less net and give energy wnd doesnt cause anxiety??

Go carnivore to tackle anxiety and other mental health issues, it’s a game changer. Check out dr Ken Berry and many other fabulous drs in the carnivore space. Dave Mac is also a great interviewer to explore people’s life changing results on the carnivore diet.

Ive been to the psych ward so many times i lost count, but it doesnt help, they just store you there until someone else needs the room. Thing is, ive survived 2 attempts that should have killed me - but truly the worst thing about it was that nobody visited me, no calls, nothing, just alone after surviving a bridge and a deadly dose xanax. But i WILL be important to someone who will need me. Same with you ❤

Thank you for this pattern i now let go of it

I went from 60mg to 90mg almost 3 months ago. My rumination seems worse. I'm guessing this could be a noradrenergic effect??? Feeling quite distressed at times :(

Cymbalta ruined my life. Gave me severe akathisia for 3 years. Incredible that I survived it.

I should really start talking to my crush
