Video

I'm sorry to hear. I felt very similar. But it came back full force. I know you can get it under control. I wish you the best. And thank you for watching 🙏

Thank you for much for watching and sharing your current ongoing process. Means a lot 😊 Yes, acceptance is the key. Much harder than it sounds but it's a constant process of getting better. Weirdly for me it's also accepting myself. I think. A big part of my anxiety is also that I'm not always happy with myself and where I'm standing in life. I have a hard time comparing myself and therefore accepting my path. Thank you for your kind words. I wish you the best 🙏

I'm sorry to hear you are struggling as well. Yes, Anxiety is the worst because it feels like the worst. It completely detaches you from reality and puts you into this alternative reality where doom and gloom is around every corner. I hope you are on your way to get better. Living with anxiety shows great strength and at the same time the ability to also manage it. I just released a second video, basically two years later talking about how anxiety changed for me. I'm also referring to the books of Joshua Fletcher which helped me a lot in understanding anxiety and what it does in the body.

100% 😊

Sorry to hear. I'm working on a new video. It's been some time now. But I've gained some new knowledge. I wish you the best. Keeping working on it.

@@WolfgangKern thank you been walking around with symptoms 24/7 and I’ve been looking for reassurance ever since because I’m so terrified. GAD is no joke and acceptance is even harder

@@lisadelange5223 It's the worst because it feels real. Breaking out of this cycle is hard but possible. And knowing you are still here, standing against it, shows your strength

Yes. You are so right. Ultimately everyone has to find their own way but those tools you've mentioned are great to be more aware of anxiety building up. I wish you the best. And thank you for sharing and for watching 🙏

If I ever will make a sequel or proper short, I will try to answer those questions 😊 thanks for watching 🙏

I'm sorry that you are going through this. I wish you the best. And I see that you are strong, overcoming anxiety before. Thank you for watching 🙏

⁠@@WolfgangKern Thank you, I wish you the best too. 🫶 And I’m here for the follow-up. 🤗

@@catq6864 thank you. I'm already writing on it. It's crazy to put on paper what happened in two full years.

@@WolfgangKern I bet. Take your time and we’ll be here for it when it’s ready. 😁😊🫶

Hence the title 😁

I for one would love for you to do a follow up. I also have health anxiety and have dealt with bouts of it since the age of 16, I'm 39 now and still continue to deal with it. I'm currently going through a terrible bout which has been going on some three months now, it never normally lasts this long and it's pure hell to say the least! Watching your video helped me see that I can learn better ways of dealing with the anxiety and that I'm not alone (Even though I wish you didn't have to go through it) I'm hoping to start therapy soon myself again but this time I want to continue with it long-term and hopefully learn how to not let the anxiety control me and my everyday life in such a profound way anymore. I hope and pray that things have continued to improve for you and would love an update. "I'm still here and so are you!"

@@emmarowan9197 thank you for your kind words. Sorry to hear that you are dealing with it again. I hope therapy helps and will provide you with the tools you need. You will master this 😊

This was such a great watch - would love to see a follow up video to this one :)

@@ImprovementPath thank you 🙏😊 already working on the script

Your story is relatable. I hope you're doing well now. Stay healthy, Stay Safe and Blessed, May Almighty heal you so there's no disease/anxiety left behind! :)

Thank you 😁 very much appreciate that. Good question. I got that song from a service called Artlist.io I will find out 😁👍

@@WolfgangKern Thank You!

Found it. The song is called Cold Light feat. Jimmie Strimell by jay-ray

@@WolfgangKern Thank you so much! 😃

@@rubyhro7440 you are welcome 😊

Thank you :D And yes, keep them locked

It's crazy what the body can do. And with anxiety you can literally have any symptoms. And they can change. So it's initially really hard to keep track of it. I wish you the best and thank you for watching my video 🙏

Thanks for taking time and watching 😊🙏

@@WolfgangKern my pleasure 🙏

Thank you so much for sharing. And for watching and leaving a comment 🙏😊 I love creating and I'm grateful to do it for a living

I'm sorry to hear. But you have already come this far. Anxiety comes in waves and unfortunately sometimes hits you out of nowhere. You are.on a good path. I wish you the best

@@WolfgangKern thank you mate! I started reading again great book - “How To Stop Worrying And Start Living” Carnegie Dale. Maybe it will help here somebody else too

Sorry to hear that you are struggling as well. I tried to limit myself as well for some time but I quickly saw that avoiding it, didn't help me in the long run. For example I didn't watch movies anymore with a certain subject. But I found exposure to a certain degree (my therapist was a great help) was very helpful and slowly got me back. CBT i can highly recommend. And for me, understanding what's happening in the body in terms of hormones also helped a lot. I could then name it and just call it what it was: just anxiety :) I wish you the best. Stay strong.

I don't know what's worse. Yeah, the thoughts are scary and they become reality. That's the part where it can ruin your life or make it very miserable

Thank you - for your kind words and for watching my video. I know life sometimes challenges us in different ways but I know we can overcome anything if there is a will. It's what we make out of it. And yes, sometimes a little time is also needed. And good people to take care of things.

Thank you 😊 I very much appreciate that.

Thank you for your kind words 😊

I'm sorry to hear that. One of my favorite shirts 😊 I hope you know that you are strong. You can and will master this. Be open about it. Talk about it. Reach out if you need to talk. And also, thanks for watching this video. It means a lot 🙏

@@WolfgangKern Thanks for the reply so soon! I have engaged in CBT but I didn't find that extremely helpful, but it was nice to be able to try it anyway. I tend not to be as worried as I used to be, but just yesterday I had a bad anxiety attack which caused me to come across your video. It just goes to show how health anxiety can come and go so randomly. By the way, your youtube channel is so underrated, I've subscribed on all my accounts!

@@billy7657 Joshua Fletcher has some great books on anxiety. Helped me to understand it more and learn what it does in your body. Anxiety comes in waves. But if you got good days and then a bad one again, it's a sign of progress. You are doing something right. Thank you so much 🙏😊

Thank you for sharing your story. Yes. We have to learn to trust. And accept to let go of things we can't control. Well put, my friend.

Thank you for watching. I'm sorry you are struggling. But you are strong. You can overcome this.

Sorry to hear that. Already tried therapy, CBT or something else?

@@WolfgangKern Yes ,have tried CBT but i am getting symptoms every other day and my test are coming negative,dont know what to do ,surfed google alot and getting more anxiety cause many saying it is the symptom of the health issue which you are scared of

@@saadsohail2906 yeah, try to really stay away from Google. Also if you got tested and your doctor tells you, you are fine, keep telling yourself exactly that. It is just anxiety and it can't hurt you. I can recommend the books by Joshua Fletcher. He provides great insights into anxiety, how it works in your body and tips in how to manage it.

@@WolfgangKern Yes please do recommend

Yes, basically 😁

Good point and let me tell you, you actually can :) You can transform the negative thoughts. In CBT you basically just do that.

Also, thank you for making the video. You'll be glad to know that there's people out there like me who really appreciate it. We are not alone

@@RegwooH I'm sorry you are struggling. I can tell you that you are on a good way. Every path is different but in the end it pays off. It's worth it. You are strong. Keep being open about it. If you have not tried CBT, I can only recommend it. Also the books by Joshua Fletcher are amazing.

Thank you 😁

Thanks for sharing your story. I'm glad you are still here. You are very strong for not only going through this but for keeping your head up even when life isn't easy at all. Keep on going. And I hope this story will help someone else who feels lost and alone.

This is exactly what set my already existing health anxiety over the edge. I’m so grateful there’s some else out there who gets it. It’s absolutely terrifying but I am hoping to be where you are in my health anxiety journey one day.

@@ashleek4481 sorry to hear that. Yes, you are not alone. And you will also manage it and overcome anxiety. The fact that you came this far proves how strong you are.

Thank you 😊

Thank you so much. 🙏 I appreciate that so much.

Thank you 🙏🙏🙏 I appreciate that so much

Sorry to hear. Hope you are doing better now. Any tips on what helped you the most?

I'm sorry to hear that. Yes. It definitely comes in waves but that's usually also a sign that you are doing something that helps you get better. Especially after a longer period of time of being good, It sucks to feel like you are back where you've started. But that's not the case. Therapy and so many books can help. I wish you the best and hang in there. It's worth it

@@WolfgangKern Oh yes. I've tried it all. Books, many different types of therapy, medication, meditation etc etc. It's been over 15 years. I've just kind of come to the conclusion that this is just always something I will deal with to some extent.

@@candycewindels1337 I agree. You can't get rid of it but it can be manageable

Thank you 😁

Sorry to hear. We all got so much shit thrown at us but that is just a testament for your strength. I wish you the best. Keep up the spirit. It’s worth it. Check out Joshua fletchers books on anxiety. Helped me tremendously

I'm sorry to hear... Unfortunately not many doctors are familiar with anxiety. Ruling out other problems is important. But then the hard work begins. Cognitive Behavioral therapy is probably the best way to treat anxiety. It's all about rewiring the brain, accepting the fact that some things are out of our control. Anxiety can't hurt us, but it can definitely change our lives. You are strong. You will overcome this. And talking about it, is super important as well. So many people suffer in silence. And there are so many of us.

@@WolfgangKern I do hope it’s just anxiety as I find it hard to believe. The Intrusive Thoughts r not fun I ask God to help us get thru this It’s our brain playing tricks on us my Psychologist Told Me it’s all from some Trauma and one day activates and then physical symptoms. She believes I will get thru this so I ask God to help me

@@WolfgangKern How r u now since it’s been a while since u posted this video? Do you see a Psychologist?

@@Rhianna2023 I'm doing well. I went to therapy for a few years. And I did a lot of CBT work at home with books. But I learned that anxiety won't really go away. It's part of me but I can live with that 😊

@@Rhianna2023 you will get through this. Your body can work in both directions. It can make you feel sick but it can also heal you from this. I know, the doc can tell you all of fine but after a few days you get those what if feelings again and you question everything they said. Trusting in your body that it is healthy and you just got anxiety Is a massive step towards getting better

Your comment just made me tear up. Thank you for sharing part of your story and being open. Also thank you for watching and your very sweet words. I promise you if you keep pushing, you will overcome this. And you will learn how to handle it in the future. The fact that you are dealing with so many things AND anxiety, shows how strong you are. Just remember, Anxiety doesn't define you. It can't hurt you. It is JUST anxiety. There are things in life we can't control. And coming to terms with that, is a big step towards accepting anxiety as part of us. It's a normal bodily function and you will rewire your brain again. I can recommend the books of Joshua Fletcher, his two books helped me a lot in understanding anxiety and in making the first changes towards overcoming it. I wish you the best and feel free to reach out anytime. Here, on Insta or wherever

The world is screwed up yes. But I think we have to try to see the good things because they are still there. And being optimistic is key when dealing with anxiety. I wish you the best. You are strong.

I filmed on Open Gate 6K 3:2 and wanted to keep the look 😊 thank you

Great choice--really liked the video.@@WolfgangKern

@@northstar15 thank you so much. Really appreciate that

Thank you so much 🙏

I'm sorry to hear that. I can tell you it's worth staying strong. Accepting it as part of you and enforcing tools that help you rewire your brain will help. You can and will do it. There are a lot of great books out there. Joshua Fletcher helped me a lot with his books. And keep being open about it. A lot of people suffer in silence and way more people do suffer.

@WolfgangKern thank you! I have some CT scans and re-do blood work next week..possibly MRI. Feels hard to function in the anxiety. Praying they all come back clear than I will meet with a therapist and try to heal from this. Thanks again and I agree we need to speak more about it!

What are you struggling with? If there's anything I can reassure you with I'd be happy to help I'm currently in a manic episode due to all of the covid vaccine symptoms. It's crippling me.

​@@jessicaabraggwhat are your symptoms? Sorry if that reply wasn't meant for my comment

@np1324 what started as a sinus infection taking 2 round of antibiotics to clear turned into thinking the infection spread in my body turned into thinking I had some sort of obstruction in my sinuses. Now I have tingling in my arms and I know from anxiety and panic attacks from the sinus infection situation I have SO much neck and shoulder tension. But I saw a chiro today who said she didn't lile the way my neck felt and wanted me to get an MRI. I told her I just had xrays and I have straightening of my neck curve form tension likely. My fingers also hurt, headaches. But her words "I don't lile the way your neck feels and I've felt many necks" and requesting and MRI making it sound like it's a tumor. She doesnt know what ive been going thru with health anxiety and such, so i keep reminding myself of that too. I keep telling myself it's all from stress and tension from the anxiety. I'm consumed by fear and my mind is so loud with all the what ifs. I also carry my 22 lbs one year old which I'm sure doesn't help my tension.

Thanks for sharing this. And I 100% agree. The brain can be rewired pretty fast but it can be hard work. But it's totally worth it

No problem. If I did it anyone can. I did it with out any medicine at all, went from not even being able to leave the house without having a panic attack to completely overcoming it. I would really encourage people to read or listen to Claire weekes and I hope it changes their life the way it did mine.
