Ask Kati Anything ep.54 audience questions:
1. I feel like I don't understand the point of our day. Not in a "what is the meaning of life" sort of way. But I struggle to not feel shame about being unproductive when I am not at work or working out. If I only did two things I'd deem "productive" it doesn't feel like enough. Is watching tv...
2. I wanted to ask if your clients are aware of your online presence? I am mainly thinking of clients with attachment issues. For me personally I am super attached to my therapist but she does not have social media, or at least I don’t think she does, but I started to imagine if you were my therapist I’d be...
3. I was wondering why my suicidal thoughts often get worse when I am doing well instead of when I get worse. I struggle with anxiety and depression if that matters. Yesterday I had a...
4. Struggling w/ physical intimacy. I have never been a very physical person. I struggle with the negative automatic thought that all men really want is sex. And everything else is just a means to and end. I am now in a...
5. How do therapists handle clients who aren’t honest?? (either because they are too sick to see reality or not ready to face certain things). If a family member of a client like this called with...
6. Can you parentify yourself as a child? I seem to have learned from a very early age that I need to be strong and sort of hold things together. But I don't think that my parents ever...
7. Could you talk about self sabotage in relation to recovery from mental illness? I recently started antidepressants for the first time and thought that I was starting to feel more clear headed and more able to get out of bed. However, everything quickly spiraled when one evening I struggled with a series of really...
8. What can I do to build up more self confidence? I suffer from depression and had to quit my job a few months ago because of that. I went to university and got into financial problems as a result...
9. Is it normal for a therapist to not give any tools whatsoever? I've been with my psychologist since October(she's my first) and I feel like she never handed me any tools to cope with the anxiety and depressive symptoms. In January, because of AKA, I had a big realization that I was emotionally neglected as a child. We talked about that for...
10. I am someone who struggles with being direct and I expect the other person to just know when they have caused unintentional hurt to me or crossed a boundary. When I don't communicate it to them, I end up getting really angry and resentment starts to build up until I explode in the last moment leading to a terrible fight...
11. What to do when everything around you is triggering? For example: music, movies, even workbooks that talk about the things I need to work on. How to move forward since I can't even work on myself without being triggered? Maybe I'm too obsessive...

Hey there! 2:20 I totally understand the “milk thing” and the constant need to clear your throat. Here’s a singers trick that always worked for me back when I sang and did commercials professionally. If you wanna clear the “crud” off your vocal chords, just before you podcast, take a few sips of any carbonated beverage. It’ll clear the mucous gunk right off the vocal chords so you can speak or sing without constant “he-heming.” I usually keep some small pony/mini cans of Sprite, 7-Up or or any of the flavored carbonated drinks you might like. Chase the carbonation down with some water and you should be good to go. 🙂👍🏻.

What you said about not feeling like a productive member of society and redefining what productiveness means and what your goals are, just made me cry, thank you so so much for being so supportive, including and openminded! I do struggle a lot with shame around this, and after spiraling down over the last couple of months into a crisis last week, what you said means a lot ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

@anano1015 3 года назад

To add to the first question, I would like to maybe suggest that the "goal" of each day could be to do something enjoyable? I mean we talked a lot about productivity but what about hobbies, or loved ones or anything we actually like doing outside of work or working out ?The person mentions TV but it could be anything enjoyable. Couldn't that be the goal of life? Enjoying life by trying to find something enjoyable to each day?

@_maia_m 3 года назад

This ^^, yes! 👍👏☺️ Thanks for bringing up this perspective! I think when we want to be productive, we want it to help others so that as a result, they can enjoy life, so why not do it for ourselves too? If we do that for ourselves you could think that others need to be less productive in order to help us... I mean, when so many of us want to be useful to others, we're all at both ends of that wish to give.

I found out about you through the financial diet. I immediately went and started listening to lots of podcasts and some main channel videos. I started therapy earlier this year and it's an empty office and only talk therapy. It didn't feel helpful to talk to her because I dont have anything current to process through. But the knowledge and vocabulary I've learned through your channel has me planning all sorts of trauma and inner child work to write out and have prepared when I go back to her in a month. It's much better than sitting there for an hour thinking "I dont know what to talk about in the present tense" and avoid the thoughts like "I dont remember this childhood event fast enough to discuss it in session" thank you for the help

About the glamorizing productivity part: I HATED SEEING TWEETS LIKE THAT, TOO. I was at the busiest point in my working life when Covid hit whilst dealing with narcissistic abuse from my family of origin. It was one of the worst (if not the absolute worst) times of my life. I was dealing with *serious* thoughts of s*icide during all of that, too. I feel fortunate that I survived when I look back. It’s still hard to talk about it, but I’ve been in therapy since then, and it’s gradually getting easier.

Outside validation: in a previous video you made a passing comment about external validation that completely changed my perspective. I had thought of it as having someone say "you did a good job", and I know I don't seem that out excessively. But your example included running examples and situations past friends and family to see if they support your conclusions. EI, repeating whole conversations and then asking, "I'm right to be mad there, right???" I really would love a longer video about this, for myself and to refer to others because I've tried to explain it a few times. Thanks for all you do ♥️

I’m working part time and am on disability. It’s so hard to not feel shame about that. I talk A LOT with my therapist about those feelings. We recently started talking about satisfying ways to spend time. Not necessarily “productive”, but things that make me feel like a real human (my phrase for my own feelings).

@harrieth 3 года назад

Thanks Kati as always. Just dropping a note that I was sure I was the 2nd one to post question this week (not the first b/c I was hesitant for a few seconds, lol), and in the end I only got 1 like. Of course, could be that my question isn't appealing... but it feels like being early doesn't make that much difference. I guess asking within the first day should be fine... then the rest is... luck? Nonetheless, although slightly sad, I am still very very happy to see many great questions, which I also supported, getting answered. :)

I completely and can reate to tour comment a few times iv tried adding a question to Kati s community tab and every time it gets 1 like or none at all I always write a question that involves myself and I always check spelling and how long my question is but seems nobody bothers to like my question I completely know how you feel about not getting your question picked I personally been struggling with my mental health and really wanted my question to get picked being honest with you my advice would be to just keep trying or give it a few weeks then try your question again seems now kati is picking question s with high number of likes but also picking 2 random questions guess you just have to get lucky I'm still waiting too take care x

@greenladies1116 3 года назад

Hi Kati, I wondered if you could answer, why do we often feel lonelier the more we spend time with people? I live alone (split with fiance in aug) and I feel panicked and horrible and begin to count the next time I can see someone/talk to a person in real life often to the point of ideation, and then I settle into my little routine after a few days and before I know it its been two weeks of not spending time with anyone but i feel almost happier? (I cant work at the moment as i'm still recovering from long covid but doing some online volunteering and im on furlough so i'm trying a lot) I just want to feel happier day to day myself im in my 30s and dont want to have to have flatmates or rush into a new relationship too soon with the wrong person just because i'm lonely. I have good friends and my sister lives close by but we are all maxed out and cant support each other all the time while the UK it's still in such a strict lockdown and i've been having months of therapy and stuff. I just want to understand how I can help myself im so tired of being so sad all the time and i dont want to isolate myself even further.

@DanilaPit 3 года назад

Self sabotage thing is so relevant to me... I feel like the recovery will take ages and then I'll be old, so what's the point. Let alone money thing (I am struggling with it badly). Also even though there are "testimonials" from some people I know about how therapy helped them, there are other people who claim they don't get any results whatsoever for years and my intuition tells me that I am more like those people. I consider myself quite rigid when it comes to changing/transforming my view on stuff, maybe even nihilistic. Like I have been desensitivised to many aha moments and profound realizations which may be fresh epiphanies for "unprepared" people but are kinda old and stale for me after years of trying to figure everything out by myself (books, videos, etc) which were fruitless in the end, mostly because of... Well, self-sabotaging. It may come out as ignorant (and it probably is), that it's quite unlikely I will discover something new in therapy, or it will require a lot of time before I hit some deeper stuff there. And even those people who claim they did get results (and they did) tell that was not easy. It required a lot of work, stress, money, etc. and I am terrified when I even think about having to go through all of this. And I often notice that the more I engage in psychological content or the more I hang around in comunities where it's the central theme (haven' go further than online yet), - the more I feel worse. Not because they are toxic (quite the opposite, those that I am/was in) but because I see how many amazing people there mostly improve and get better (rightfully so) while I'm just stuck. I feel better when I distract myself from all of it. Which is the last thing I should do probably, because I am in need of doing something with my life more than ever. And it makes me to procrastinate and ignoring this even more. Your podcast doesn't make me feel bad by any means, it soothes and calms me a lot but I still can't get myself to reach out for help. It's just a comment here, whether you read it or not - firstly, thank you once again, second - I wonder if anybody else feels anything similar, that's interesting to me.

I’m in a cycle of resilience, episode, isolation, repeat and my biggest fear is my resilience is getting lower and lower each time while my episodes grow bigger. The real problem I have is that I can’t stop my mentality that I have the absolute power to change this by force when it’s repeatedly been proven to not be working. I’m stuck in my ways and when I try change my mindset ends up being even more deeply rooted that I am right. How would you advise me in a situation like this?

Kati, you mentioned a site for counseling that was Christian based in your Emotional Neglect video. I cannot find it online. Can you please share the link? Thank you so much!

Question: I get obsessed with diagnosis, even though the diagnosis might be correct I start to 'live' the diagnosis and then convince myself im faking it all. Any tips?

Years of compulsive lying make it so that often I'm unsure of when I'm telling the truth.

Maybe you should try "less-directed" psychodynamic or psychoanalytic therapy before you knock those methods. The absence of formal treatment plans and goals, lack of tasks, and unwillingness to provide tools probably seems as foreign to you as the idea that challenging your thoughts and doing homework is to those who are psychodynamic/analytically oriented. As they say, not all who wander are lost.

your friend who buts out 9 vids a week is most likely an overachiever. I prefer that you post once a week or so. I dont want to become psychotic keeping up with an "influencer" posting so much ! Lol
