Have you ever tried mindfulness? What was your experience?

@RajiSanthosh-qu5rw 20 дней назад

Wellness 🎉

@ezkhan8690 20 дней назад

I've tried mindfulness several times but my thoughts donot let me focus on the things that is happening in the present moment.i got distracted by my thoughts in a min i have very poor concentration and focus nowadays. Wat should i do in this case

@alison7137 20 дней назад

It's helpful to me when I'm not in an anxious state. I find myself more able to appreciate my surroundings on a walk, or time spent with my family. But, if I'm actively ruminating, mindfulness is not as effective.

@emilywhite6458 20 дней назад

Face my fears and that's all I do

@Cha34704 20 дней назад

I like practicing mindfulness because it is an intrinsic ability that we have. Thank you so much for the very helpful videos on OCD I watch from France. You help me a lot on my journey to overcome OCD.

@pumpkin1982 20 дней назад

Mindfulness is ERP, because it includes willingness. Be with your thoughts, feelings, sensations, and resist the urge to fix or change them (Hershfield, 2017, everyday mindfulness for OCD).

@philipholding 15 дней назад

I'm not sure about that. Mindfulness is acceptance, not willingness. ERP is exposure therapy, a willingness (intention) to face one's fears (anxiety), and resist the urge to action the compulsions. ( Retired mindfulness practioner and NHS CBT therapist).

@stevigeorge3649 15 дней назад

I think you are so amazing for someone that suffers severe ocd I appreciate that I can turn to your channel and just watch this when I’m starting to feel panic. Thank you for teaching people about real ocd.

@wassimbh9275 20 дней назад

Hi nathan , i would like to thank you for your help , i was confused by ocd never found a solution until I found your channel. It's literally the cure of anxiety and fears Thank you bro , god bless you 🙏

@PetPhotographyMN 17 дней назад

Stay with it relentlessly, we have endless opportunities to be mindful. Outstanding presentation, Nate.

@christinenbarba День назад

Your videos are so incredibly calming. I love the blowing out candles suggestion and that you offer various ways to meditate (such as going on a walk, etc.). While recovering, walking started to help me so much : ). Keep up the fantastic work with your videos. They're great!

@sofiaverdeja8757 11 дней назад

Your channel reminds me that this has a solution, and gives me a lot of hope

Have you written any books that I can read on this subject?

@LisaPrayLoveTeach 8 дней назад

@ocdandanxiety Any videos about supporting loved ones with OCD and helping with coping strategies? My family has a history of anxiety and we each have a toolbox of strategies to help ourselves and each other through anxiety episodes, but one of my siblings has OCD and we are pretty lost in how to effectively help with coping or support.

@mukulbhatta2896 7 дней назад

I love to think.

@christopherpatrick1026 17 дней назад

Could I ask, I’m in the beginning stages of accepting that I have OCD. I’ve been struggling with meta OCD and thinking about it all day long. I’m more so confused or at least need the right guidance on what the difference between doing exposures and having compilations is. Like the way I’m seeing it right now is that I’ve been actively contradicting my negative thoughts in order to help make some of the anxiety and worry go down. I’ve been confronting them head on and agreeing with my thoughts and after some time, the worry does go down so it is working. But then I think, is that a compulsion because it’s alleviating my issue? Or is that okay and me questioning it and having this thought right this second the compulsion? Any opinions would be appreciated.

Hey matey I’m having a very bad time and I’m strugling ti cope and stay afloat with it I’ve been poorly for 11 years and I have it extreamly bad and I don’t know what to do anymore I know it’s a lot to ask but you videos are helpings a lot could I speak to you in person and give you my what happening with me and the horrible thoughts I get and get a answer on how to deal with them pleas can you speak to me privately and make a day to speak to one another pleas it will change everything for me

@antonisl8129 16 дней назад

I suffer from severe OCD and anxiety attacks but breathing meditation help me a lot. I am also on meds ( escitalopram 10mg). Meditation is very hard a least for the first months but please be patient and you will learn how to do it. I have also studied Buddhism. That helped me also.

@ambyjay2199 20 дней назад

Hey out of topic here.....i have sensorimotor OCD of noticing my saliva and Salivating alot then swallowing my saliva everytime... How do i go about it please 😢

@Blessednesting 20 дней назад

You practice ERP and say, “yep, I notice this and oh well,” then move on. It takes practice.

@ambyjay2199 18 дней назад

@malihasultana421 18 дней назад

I have a question. I know scrupulosity is faced by all kinds of people from any Religious belief. Like Muslim, Hindu, christian and even atheist. And each believe their own religion like a Christian wouldn't believe Hindu or Muslim or an atheist believe. A Christian would think his/her religion is true. And others are wrong. So when everyone from each religion experiences the same scrupulosity issue how to know it's ocd and not true? It confuses me a lot. Because as a Muslim whenever I face scrupulosity I just convince myself that it's ocd not me and everything is okay. But then a thought comes that people from different beliefs face this and have the same opinion about themselves. Then what is actually true? Then it causes me more pain and confusion.

@kshitijafand8745 20 дней назад

If we take your course then will we be able to ask you questions??

@ocdandanxiety 20 дней назад

Hey! I'm not able to answer specific questions about someone's treatment, but can for more general things. Most people ask questions in the facebook group or our discord. 👍

@malihasultana421 20 дней назад

Normal incidents or accidents okay. Are ocd fears true in any way? Like scrupulosity. Where a person thinks that God is not with them and they are sinnig or their desires are wrong?

@videogameshd2023 20 дней назад

A thought is just a thought. Thoughts has no connection with reality , so don't worry

@Stickman9970 19 дней назад

I too have it. My thoughts say me the world is not real and everything is just fake, and arguing me god is not real. It literally made me an atheist

@HelloThereIAmAlice 7 дней назад

Metacognitive therapy is the gold standard when it comes to OCD, GAD, anxiety, depression etc :)

@danielocsai36 20 дней назад

Mindfulness seems more like avoidance to me. Be in the present, so you don't have to face your fears. I believe in the liberating power of ERP. I'm no longer avoiding, ignoring, disregarding my fears, I'm looking for them.

@forgot10sup 20 дней назад

It aint avoiding, it is learning to have no response to thoughts thatre disturbing u. Avoiding would be to just shut urself off with substances or videos and try not to think of whatever worries u. Mindfulness teaches Ur brain to focus more and it teaches Ur brain that whatever thoughts there are that Ur mind creates are not dangerous. U should try it too, it is helpful (difficult as f too 💀)

@cowsaysmoo51 20 дней назад

It's not avoidance, it's being fully aware of your thoughts and feelings, OCD thoughts included, and not doing anything about them.

@AnnHelle 20 дней назад

If what you fear is not being able to go into compulsive thinking patterns as with those who have pure-o, then it absolutely is ERP. Lol

@prismatic1239 19 дней назад

Do ERP first Once you no longer fear the thought like you used to that’s when you should turn to mindfulness.

@angitapaul4198 19 дней назад

I have all the symptoms of rocd....today I was thinking if I leave my boyfriend then how I feel...... then I feel nothing... I'm not crying no anxiety no sadness.....and I don't think it's numbness......I was not feeling anything, that's why I was feeling scared ...... Is this rocd or I am not love my partner anymore???? please reply.....

@vhsorion 17 дней назад

OCD is making you overthink. You don't even need a proper diagnosis to have the symptoms of OCD. Don't worry about it. You clearly love him.

@engetje89 20 дней назад

I have severe ocd and mindfulness doesn't help. Nothing helps anymore. I did every Therapy, every medicine and I even have a deep brain stimulation. It only gets worse. Ocd, chronic depression, autism, adhd and now an eating disorder. If anyone has any tips I would love to hear them. I am lonely and don't want to do this living thing anymore. 😭

@efiorkopoulou500 20 дней назад

Hi there! Everything you are talking about (all these experiences and difficulties) are typically present in Borderline Personality Disorder. You need to look for a specialized therapist in BPD that will help you look at the possibility that you meet criteria for both BPD and OCD and I would strongly recommend Dialectical Behavior therapy which has a strong mindfulness component but also a variety of other techniques and skills. Also, if you are doing mindfulness to stop the thoughts and to feel better it's never going to "work". The goal of mindfulness is to be present and accepting of everything that is and that includes intrusive thoughts and other unwanted states of being, feeling, thinking/experiencing. It can help to ask yourself the question "what if I just observe (my thoughts or painful emotions?". I hope this helps a bit. Keep practicing and keep trying. Life is worth it even with the pain.

@fin610 20 дней назад

you just want to control your thoughts and feelings and avoid your anxieties, that’s all it is, reacting to brain junk, it’s addictive

@tarasexton1392 20 дней назад

Please don’t give up! Keep praying and trying all the treatments. I to have OCD every day is a struggle but not to know that you are alone can move mountains. Seek a support and spiritual group…… Hang in there friend.

@dog8068 20 дней назад

Have you read the book “You are not a rock”? The exercises in that book helped me, along with therapy, and forcing myself to be social, practice hobbies, exercise, and eat well. Even if I felt like I didn’t deserve it. Even if I was scared. Even if I thought I was being watched and was going to be arrested/house would burn down/whatever. Staying home and doing compulsions makes it worse. Please don’t give up. There is hope for everyone.

@dineshkumar-y7p 19 дней назад

Hi. Please Dont give up! here if you wanna talk. seek ocd specialist. Yes they are hard to find but you can totally recover

@malihasultana421 20 дней назад

Why ocd sufferes have to do ERP for getting ride of it? I just want to believe that ocd fears are false. That my scrupulosity whic is saying Allah (Creator) is not with or whatever i wish to have is sinful. Even if many says. And this causes me pain and heart ache. I just don't want to believe ut. Can't i just believe truly that Anxiety or fear in this situation of ocd or depression are false? And this helps actually better for me. I used to do many things without fear , asking for things from Allah without fear. But now i fear asking same things as i feel and kinda forcefully believe that it's not okay or it's sinful.

hi, a therapist told me my brain was just doing its job, trying to help me stay safe, even though it was doing the wrong things. He said try telling your brain "Thank you for trying to help me." It does work for me sometimes, even if I have to reassure it repeatedly. It just acknowledges the thought & kind of puts it to sleep.
