  • Do your actions sometimes seem out of your control? Find out if you're "acting out" to deal with difficult emotions. In this video, I help you understand the defense mechanism of acting out. I explain what it is, why we do it, how to recognize it in yourself and provide healthier coping skills to replace acting-out behaviors.

    This video reminds of my non-verbal son who has Autism.
    He would frequently act out, and as a result,
    my mother believed that he needed a beating.
    She also verbally abused and hit me for not supporting her.
    However, I made the decision to go no contact with my family,
    which helped me and my children become stronger.
    I am happy to report that my son is doing extremely well and thriving despite the challenges he faces.

    I’m 24 and I’ve had about a dozen or more jobs in my 18-24 years of life. I never really understood why I kept job hopping. Done part of me would start making excuses to not come to work or why I’d be late. And I agree it’s not laziness it’s being stressed and not being able to handle them correctly. Another thing I’m always angry with my parents. I’m stressed, anxious and battling my emotions inside that I take it out on them or more recently my boyfriend. For example recently, I was getting frustrated that my boyfriend didn’t answer any calls during a 24 hour period and went to my parents house frustrated taking out on them. When my parents gave me feed back I refused and kept yelling my frustrations. I “acted out”. I’m the type where it’s either fight or flight in problems. In that moment it was fight. I’ve realized that exercise is a way to calm me down quicker whether it’s walking or just doing jumping jacks. Sometimes even going into a separate room and taking 10 to 15 deep breaths helps. I feel like the reason I “act out“ in many situations is because I don’t know how to deal with certain problems, the correct way. Again I’m 24 and I have been babied. I feel like a lot even up until this day. I have not had a Person who was hard on me to do things right or to take different situations the right way. I really connected to this video.

      Hey, lots of things can cause these symptoms. I've had this for my whole life. at 67 years ago I would recommend to work on this issue while you can. Hungry angry lonely tired or halts is a start. Also the environment the air we breathe the water we drink and the chemicals contribute a lot as they disturb your whole nervous anotomic systems so it's hard not to overly react. Take it easy on yourself as guilt ain't going to work. Also there's so many crazed people doing weird stuff probably a lot worse than us, just sayin. Keep safe😉

      I've been diagnosed with autism and personality disorder. I also have childhood trauma. That's why my brain keeps self-sabotaging. My therapists were not hard on me because I'm already hypercritical of myself a repeat of childhood. So my therapists had to teach me compassion and show me other ways of dealing with my intense emotions that are not maladaptive or dysfunctional. I'm not perfect but I'm having to learn now about dealing with autistic triggers. I have insomnia and it ruins my ability to go to work on time on top of the autism. But I do explain to my managers at work what is happening to me and human resources and occupational health are aware that I have neurodivergent disabilities. I have therapy to keep me from doing the most self-sabotaging things and diagnosis is a bit of relief and I don't feel like a bad person anymore. Just a person with a wonky brain. Lol! As long as I go to work and ask for a break I'm ok. I get anxiety attacks before work and my brain tries to dissociate that's why I'm often late for work...on top of the insomnia. I'm only finding out that I'm overstimulated in my job at age 42 and I've had this job part-time for the last 10 years!! No wonder my brain is tired!

      Sorry I know this is long but please read it it may help you..
      Yes I have gone through this too I’m 26 and from 18 I’ve had maybe 30 jobs some I forgot I had lol and it took me to lose my last job and potential good relationship to wake up and realize I have a bad temper/anger issues/ high anxiety and so much self doubt and low self esteem from never feeling good enough because I had a single parent who was hard on me and I held the title of the responsible obedient child which caused stress to be perfect and that kept me from feeling worthy in adulthood because there was no one constantly praising me and I was hyper sensitive to criticism so In turn I didn’t feel worthy of making or saving money( seeing my parent struggle with money have me a negative relationship with money like money is bad or they never had money to get me what I want I must not be worth having it so I spent it when I got it) or being in environments with people of different personalities made it hard to function because I didn’t know how to “act”.
      I’ve never knew who I was and still learning I always felt like I had to be a certain way in work settings in order to be accepted I felt like I had to fit in but when I didn’t it made me feel depressed so I’d quit or I took things way too personal instead of solving things logically instead of emotionally which caused me to quit too(it’s so many reasons but this would be a book long). It’s so much that I’ve discovered that I can’t say fully but I want to say look into why you feel you quit all the time and take things one by one and dissect how you’ve come to behave in such fight or flight maybe your parents didn’t support or protect you like they should have and now your trying to do everything on your own and it’s overwhelming you and causes you to be angry or you lack boundaries because you feel undeserving of being truly respected as you are and when someone crosses them you lash out because you feel taken advantage of..
      I have always operated in my weaknesses due to negative programming and now I’m seeing I have so many strengths for example instead of thinking I can’t hold a job down so I continue to prove that right by constantly quitting I think about the jobs I have held done for a long period of time or a after school activity (when I was in school) or if you are a constant college drop outs like me I’m starting to reprogram my brain by stating the fact that I finished kindergarten through 12th grade I can complete atleast one course of college..

    I almost always believe I am a victim or believe that somebody else is a victim when I “act out.” I have learned to be more reluctant to embrace and internalize either belief.
    I used to hate the rhetoric of “don’t believe in victimhood” because it can be used to dismiss structural injustice and reify meritocratic individualism that our oligopoly does not deserve.
    I have since accepted that my internal Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is not an adjudication of my humanistic ethics.

    I loved the video but think it’s extremely important to clarify that severe forgetfulness is very rarely - almost never - a subconscious anger at the other person. If it is very out of character and other circumstances align, then yes - I do agree with you. But there could be many underlying medical issues and even age related issues that really aren’t out of anger, passive aggression, or resentment. (Small example, but my own temporary forgetfulness was as a result of long covid and had absolutely nothing to do with the people I was letting down. I felt terrible about it.) I appreciate this is not what you’re saying, but I do think some viewers will interpret partner’s or colleagues’ forgetfulness as resenting them and it almost never is.

    This is so helpful. I was wondering why I would get late on purpose sometimes, and wondered if it was an ADHD thing. Maybe it facilitated being reckless, but deep inside I wanted to protest the struggle I have with being on time, among other issues.
    That's why I'd choose to be blissfully slow and enjoy my time, but in a bad way, because I wanted to preserve my autonomy. That's my best guess, and it makes sense.

    I'm 26, diagnosed with OCD and I suspect autism (a family member who is a counselor also suspects autism). I was homeschooled and brought up in protestant homophobic churches (I'm bi and my brother is gay). My parents have largely accepted us for who we are, but sometimes I feel like I can't forgive them for raising us in such a damaging environment, and sheltering me from vital experiences in school that would have helped me grow socially and connect with different types of people. I feel like I can't even forgive them for having me in the first place, since I really don't enjoy life that much anyway with the current state of the country. I guess it has more to do with the lack of support in America for people who are suffering and need medical help (i.e. therapy), but can't afford it. I'm getting by right now and started therapy, but I don't know if I'll be able to in the long run without support, and I'm already having problems with medicaid being denied, and I can't get insurance through my job and have no interest in working in a full time job that I hate and that will consume my life again. I need a social safety net in order to stay optimistic about life. It's criminal that we do everything that we can in this country to keep people from getting help. I'm insulted that my parents are so deeply rooted in their conservatism that they would vote for candidates who want to keep me from receiving care, and I don't know how not to be angry.

    Hi there, That is pretty much my behavior for the last couple of years. I can't seem to get out of this circle of feeling angry and irritated, to sadness and frustrated and then coping through smart drugs. This makes me happier and relaxter for a few days in which I get ideas what to do to get out of the situation. Then the drugs wear off and I get back to anger and irritation again etcetera...Psychiatrists say I am untreatable and have a cluster B personality, which is absolute bullocks! They don't even want to hear my story, my experiences from the past that gave me the trauma's I have now! Everything I say anyways is considered a lie or has not happened according to them. Prove in the form of people who witnessed or any other ways, the refuse pertinently! Because they don't need prove, because things didn't happen they say! And so I am just stuck at home with a bunch of medicines that only help me sleep, but do nothing for my situation.

Here I am trying to clear my mind that continues to hold back my physical self, but in controlling your emotions you have to be fully conscious of your feelings and emotions.

    I'm a mess and need help! I have severe OCD......(excoriation) I'll pick till I bleed, even if it hurts. Depression/anxiety, panic attacks, anorexia/bulimia, PTSD, misophonia, intermittent rage disorder, trouble focusing on one thing at a time....I'm very scattered, insomnia because of either racing thoughts or thoughts I fixate on and suicidal ideations! I've tried talk therapy, redirection of thoughts, meditation, breathing exercises, exercise, healthy eating, cold and hot water therapy, many many different kinds of medications, 2 suicide attempts. Prosac helped, but because I cant keep a job.....I have no money and no health insurance. I cant get aid because I live with my partner and daughter and they take their income into consideration. My mental issues are from multiple molestations from my father, brothers, and my uncle and theres a family history of mental issues. I was beaten with a belt (leather part and belt buckle), punched in the head, open handed hits to the head, slammed into the wall, swung by my hair, beaten with a rose bush switch, screamed at and threatened! Beaten when I had trouble learning my ABC's at 4.5 years old! Made to run in place for 5 hours. Forced to eat food I didnt like.....when I vomited beaten because I wouldnt eat the vomit, almost stabbed with a knife because my father got pissed off about me not doing the dishes. This was being done to me by my father who was 6'2.....210lbs. No help from my mother even though she knew what was going on. She told me she loved him.

    I want to share my story so that others do not make mistakes. I suffered from serotonin syndrome after two weeks of taking Prozac, and then the doctor added another medication for me, which I took, and I had a panic attack, severe fear, and confusion, and I felt like I was going to die. I went to the emergency room in the hospital and met with another psychiatrist who had no experience. I told him, unfortunately, he said: I have anxiety that is not from the medicine. He gave me another medicine, so I believed what he said and I went into a coma due to serotonin poisoning. The medicine was withdrawn from my body, but I suffered from severe depression and anxiety after that because of this incident. I continued to suffer for years, and I am now fine, much better than before, and I am still recovering without any medications. An antidepressant. When I went to a psychiatrist, he went because I had a phobia of giving lectures at university only. I am very regretful and wrong for going to a psychiatrist. I lost 3 years of my life because of that.

    I’m no rocket engineer but close and !’v seen this happen in group situations with certain management decisions or statement towards a group or new company policies. Where management has been forced to shutdown and “retrain” the group. It gets real intense when dealing with the only work forced trained to protect or provide the only source of product to the public. Like in utilities, policing, nuclear safety stuff like that is where I seen this. Yea I seen this acting out in groups I’ve worked with all across America. It’s happening in our political world now with both groups and individuals. Look at that federal house representative who pulled the fire alarm at capital as his colleges argued on the house floor. He was acting out big time and I think he admitted to it! Poor guy….

We were able to address, drugs, sex, crime and unemployment which are real challenges faced by young people. Not all churches are like this but look for ones that do not set themselves apart and isolate their members. My church was like this, they allowed all members of the local area to come to the church even if they were not church members or Christians or religious. They looked for the common humanity instead of considering themselves as superior to the rest of society. I also found solace and community in the Local Lions club and Kiwanis clubs. Some people find support in sports clubs.

    Dr. Tracy, I have had lots and lots of changes this year. My sister and I have had a difficult relationship over the years. I was diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety this year. My son went to live with my sister. I keep feeling my sister is recording our phone conversations as well as in person. I truly feel she is trying to get me. I don't know if this is real or a crazy fixed belief. My mother feels I am crazy when I spoke about this to a church elder. Could a person imagine the clicking of a phone recording and imagine a person recording your conversations on a cellphone? I don't know if I should be aware or get mental health help?

    • @marleyhill34
      @marleyhill34 Před měsícem

      Why did your son have to go to your sister instead of his other parent/grandparents? You could be imagining it but it could be because of the traumatic stress you feel from your sister over the years as well as being separated from you offspring. Definitely see a clinical therapist especially as you said that you have been diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety. I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression for years but it actually turns out that I have Childhood trauma, Personality disorder and autism level 2. Although I believe in God and Jesus, the church has never been able to help me with my mental health/neurodivergent brain because when we get out into the real world most of the people do not have religion or they believe something completely different from a practising Christian.

    😷😴😷Hello Doctor Marks, as when the trauma, that we are through experiences and memmories living with. It is such a important part of the lesson. For example the situations that we encounter that may not cause the individual to act out initially, but the issues as described has an physicalogical affect due to the fact that those experiences reintroduce the trauma and extremes, therefore physiologically, the individual relives the torment.(As if co- dependcy itself could be a solution) If in reference to things such as relationship,(romantic/platonic) or another example such patient client privilege being clearly violated. The answers originated and are only central to the self. People's curcumstance shouldn't be treated as an cross examination or such as an experiment so to say things; to cause a reaction to justify a need for something more clearly to suggest the said evil. As you said: that cause the distress, ambivalence, displacement. Thank you for the video. God Bless. . .🤚✍️👏🗣

    If you are involved with a partner that acts out, reconsider the relationship. This person doesn't have the skills to handle their emotions that you'd want. Even if they treat you well, if they act out at work, they will repeatedly get fired or quit. You get to support them while they cycle through this.

    okay Im confused. I have used gaming all my life as a way to handle emotions that are too overwhelming and 100% of the time it calms me down and works. Is this anything to do with the fact I have Aspergers? I just noticed you listed gaming as a negative here and then when listing things to do to help yourself you said playing instruments, drawing, painting...etc. Don't get me wrong I love doing those things too, but they really don't help me in any emotional way. They almost feel like chores I should get to rather than fun activities probably because I was neglected and often abused as a kid except my artist talent was the only thing people gave me attention or credit for. but not even really my parents. my mother is a narcissist so any achievement of mine she could brag about she tried to one up me by telling me a story of how SHE did the same thing I did but better and would rather reflect on her experience rather an congratulate me on mine, My father was a detective who also was a police sketch artist so as an artistic man himself, I always felt underwhelmingly simplistic and never good enough in that filed for him. My parents gave me my first nintendo system when I was still in kindergarten. They were aware they weren't going to be present enough i..e. working or just busy living their own lives, and a console system seemed smart to keep me occupied and a way to actually control me by offering me new games or threatening to take them away. So as an adult, gaming to me is an an important part of feeling well. Its been implanted into my brain that i need this and feel it should be added to that list of activities to help cope. I have a further argument about its validity as a useful tool but that's a very long one and I wanna stick this main point here

    • @marleyhill34
      @marleyhill34 Před měsícem +1

      I think gaming is ok as long as you don't substitute it for other coping strategies. It's a bit like addiction. If you put gaming above social interaction and self-care all of the time, then it can be a maladaptive way of coping and you never learn social skills or self-help. I have autism Level 2. Late diagnosed at age 42. Gaming can be your safe space and special interest but it cannot be the only thing that regulates your emotions. I hope that helps. I've had therapy.

      Speak to another professor or pastoral care about your difficulties. I had to go to the head of my department when I felt like I was going to fail my degree exams. She really helped me and pinpointed where I was going wrong. I'm still learning to put myself first and stick up for myself as I've been diagnosed with Level 2 autism at 42. I wish I had known when I was in my early 20s because I could have gotten extra neurodivergent support with autism. I can always try to get the support now but it's more of a struggle as I have more responsibilities as an older adult. Speak to your degree support and also see if you can be assessed for any neurodivergent traits.

No one know about horrible thing that i see or happen to me, because my family have ever says " You can pray to God and maybe you can heal yourself. If i hanging out with my friend ( we all girl) they says i sluth, and after 20 year they say because i am stupid so you don't have husband. In my observation they are only like animal. Because i am muslims my friends judge me i cute ties with my father is a sin, but my father and his family tortured my mother since before i am born, and finally my mother died when i still 3 month.
