- CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) is one of the most common treatments for a range of mental health problems, from anxiety, depression, bipolar, OCD or schizophrenia.
This animation explains the basics and how you can decide whether it's best for you or not.

Your voice is really calming and put me at ease - thank you for explaining this! ❤️
Can CBT help me? I have no negative thoughts about myself, it’s just this unending anxiety over everything. I love myself, but have just started to feel fearful of everything, and fearing the fearful feelings.
I am an avid #MentalHealthAwareness advocate and performer, and I love this so much. I travel the country trying to bring that awareness on stages, in classrooms, hospitals, and on my CZcams channel, so I get excited when I see other advocates. 💙❤
WOW ! What a WONDERFUL EXPLANATION....,
Family? Friends? What are these things?
agreed, they never address the social issues underlying your problem, they only distract you.
@@XBLspartanx170 Sadly, you are right.

What a wonderfully simple explanation of CBT! I would love permission to share this on my website so that my own clients can better understand the concept. May I do so?
+Amanda Dutton Hi Amanda, please do! If you could link back to our website that would be great too. Take care, Ellie from Mind
+Mind, the mental health charity Absolutely! Thank you so much!
Just a word of caution: if you turn down therapy that's offered to you then you might not be offered any more. That's how the NHS really works.
+ShakespeareOfBorg You're very right, there's just not enough variety at the moment. Everyone is different and there is no one size fits all when it comes to mental health. We're campaigning to improve the types of talking therapy that people have access to > www.mind.org.uk/news-campaigns/campaigns/access-to-talking-therapies/ We believe no one should be turned away without the help they need, and if that's happening to you, you can call, email or text our Infoline, who will try and help you to find alternative sources of support. Their info is here www.mind.org.uk/information-support/helplines/ Take care, Ellie from Mind
Thanks. After being refused any therapy by the NHS I'm now on Mind's waiting list for therapy instead. I've put in formal complaints about the NHS's refusal to help me and these have been ignored as the doctors just claim it's all "part of my disorder" to be dissatisfied!
,
Its all a part of the "you WILL do it our way, or you will simply be ignored"! Side of the NHS. Some of the mental health "workers" I have met there have been amazing. Yet others have been a nightmare and God forbid that you might contradict or even PROVE one of those ones wrong.
I hope that by now you hve received the help you needed and that life's now a lot better for you :)
Funny how other therapies are trivialized by saying it's talking to a bearded man who analyses your dreams. CBT is good to use in addition to other therapy techniques I don't think it's good to downplay other methods in this video.
This would be so simple, easy, awesome for my patients to grasp. I would like to share it with my patients as well. May I? Thank you...Amy
+Amy Benjamin Of course Amy, that's what we made it for, share away :)
Thank you.
Likewise, I echo Amanda in agreeing that this is a fantastic video, May I also link to it on my website, I will of course provide a link to MIND,
cbt does not work for me.. and it makes me stop seeing my therapist anymore.. i don't feel helped by that kind of therapy
Hi this vid is ace! Please may I share this on my website too....I will of course link to your site....
+glynharris1 Of course Glyn, go ahead :)
Hi, I'm seeking free CBT resources online, such as a workbook to go through, would anyone be able to direct me to some helpful materials? Thanks in advance!
CBT is based on a logical fallacy that Thoughts Control feelings. Neuroscience shows that the amygdala, ( the smoke alarm in the brain) sends signals via the sympathetic nervous system to create nervous panicky feelings, and sends signals to the neocortex to produce the negative thoughts. There is no direct link between the two. Cognitive re framing simply suppresses those feelings. What you actually need to do ( and Mindfulness Somatic Experiencing and Focusing Psychotherapy all do this ) is to activate the'noticing' part of the brain ( Hyppocampus ) which helps to reset the amygdala. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk and others have pointed this out for many years. but the anti-science CBT people just ignore it.
vidform I made one mistake. The signal is sent to the parasympathetic nervous system to produce the feelings ! Sorry !
Thanks
Oh the irony! I was just beginning to feel like I was substituting actively changing my actions for merely trying to learn conceptually (thinking). LOLOLOL I'll let you know in a few months about my personal behavioral chicken egg problem
I doubt CBT is anti-science, but they meant general their rules into contexts in which it might not be as useful. The noticing of the trigger seems to be the first part, it seems compatible with meditation and focused pyschotherapy.
I am a therapist for over three decades and a Ph.D. level psychologist. I have read hundreds of scientific articles on neuroscience and probably thousands on therapy. CBT is a practical efficient therapy. There are many therapeutic procedures that don't have a complete scientific understanding, especially neuroscience. Nobody understands how the brain works. CBT people are not anti-science. In fact, they are much more science based than most schools of psychotherapy. The important thing is that most people will live better lives because of it.
Great!!!
I could definitely do with some
Here from my Psychology A level revision
Good luck with your exams! Hope this helped - Cora
Vvvv. Helpful
I think I would rather lay on a couch and speak to a bearded man about my childhood.
+Vince Mitchell Maybe one of these would be more helpful for you Vince? > mind.org.uk/information-support/drugs-and-treatments/talking-treatments/types-of-therapy/
