It’s so real how a new symptom can totally cause you to spiral. That has happened to me before, especially over the past month. Like feeling 95% better and then a new symptoms comes out of nowhere and causes a setback.
Same here bro
March 1st, I had my first panic attack. It propelled me into a nightmare of similar symptoms, agoraphobia and losing complete connection with myself. I went from the life of the party to afraid to sit on my patio. I have learned of some legitimate health concerns but even going to doctors became a huge deal to pump myself up to do. I’m still struggling and my adrenals are shot. I hope to plug in, watch more videos and heal. I hope everyone who comments here finds healing as well. We can all get better! We will get better:)
Absolutely we will be ok:) what I did was watch ALL OF SHAANS VIDEOS 3-4 x lol
And suck it all in!!!! Take his advice and follow the rule....just let it happen accept the feelings but don't dwell. I got the book by Clare Weekes too. Helped big time.
Can u help me out britney
This is the same exact thing that happened to me almost on the same exact date. I hope you’re doing better now.
@@alessshorts I am how bout you
@@StreetProphet23 doing alright, getting through it.
I WISH I HAD NEVER GOOGLED SYMPTOMS. I am currently stuck in an anxiety symptom just because I googled it. There is no test to settle my fears of it either. All I can do is pray it goes away like my other symptoms did 😢
I know the feeling, assure yourself it's just anxiety, accept what you're feeling and just let it kinda hang out with you. If you ride it out it will go away. God bless
Your biggest mistake is you try to get of it
Whenever you feel it, Your nervous system wants Fight or flight response that you give.
If you don't give then the fear comes up, that you have to overcome.
This won't harm you,
Just keeping the anxiety cycles
Don't worry about the symptoms going away! You have to accept that they're here and you can still move on and live and enjoy your life with them! Accepting the symptoms is the real exit from anxiety, if they go away at some point that's a bonus!
One thing I've learned about prayer. When you're asking God to help move a mountain, you better expect to wake up next to a shovel.
Glad you escaped the hell that is anxiety keep on keeping on very inspiring story, I’m 52 and have suffered since about 21 it sick of just existing and my life has become so small due to self imposed restrictions, but only now trying to change things wish me luck xx
Almost same . Started at 22 with a accident and spiraled. Now 47 and finally starting to realize how to get out of this bullshit.
BEST OF LUCK MY FRIEND. I'M 58, FROM INDIA. I'M SUFFERING FROM ANXIETY FOR THE LAST 7 YEARS & SLOWLY HEALING MYSELF.
1)YOU MUST SLOWLY STOP ALLOPATHIC MEDICINE .
2)TRY TO HEAL YOURSELF NUTRITIONALLY
3)YOUR DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY MAY BE DUE TO MERCURY AMALGAM TOOTH FILLINGS WHICH YOU MAY HAVE. GET RID OF THEM, DO MERCURY DETOX BY TAKING SELENIUM AND NAC SUPPLEMENTS AND YOU MAY BE HEALED.
BEST WISHES FROM INDIA
@@liztowers2058 it sucks mate, I am on holiday in Portugal punched myself to go was absolutely terrified, I soldiered on regardless and can even say I had a good day today, good luck don’t give up
@@sabyasachisen5351 Thankyou likewise my friend 😁
Keep it going my friend I've been suffering this anxiety's disorder and panic since 21 now I'm 42 and even troughout over all this years had make me stronger and nowadays I know more about it and is more easy for me to distinguish and have this sort of awareness feeling of when or why a panic attack could come out still is a nightmare but you get used to it
I am so glad to her symptoms because that’s exactly how I feel!! It helps a lot! God bless her. Thank you for allowing her to tell her story
Your making light of this and laughing makes me CRAZY!!!
Thank you Brittany for listing all of those symptoms.. I could listen to those all day, that really helps
Thank you for sharing your videos Shaan 🙏 It's been 2 weeks since I didn't feel the physical symptoms because I followed your advices. I thought it was a trap situation of anxiety. Thank you from the Philippines 🇵🇭
This video really helped me and it was reassuring hearing Brittany's story. Thanks for all you do.
So glad it helped!
Just wanted to thank Shann and the guest to share this crucial information and experience, each of interviews with different experiences helped me so so much, it makes me feel that I’m not alone with this symptoms. In the anxiety community we share our experiences and successes stories that will help millions of other people are facing the same problems. I’m forever grateful for Shann for all his work and his dedication to share…. Love ❤️!
What helps me is to remember that if something is seriously life threatening, like an actual symptom, you're not going to be conscious enough to type/google/talk/walk/roll around on the floor or whatever you're doing lol. I count to 90 seconds and once I'm there it proves to me I'm entirely safe, because anything medically serious would incapacitate you much quicker than that. You can also try running around your house or if you have a yard. Notice all the things you are able to do that someone having a medical emergency CANNOT do. The other thing that helps is paying attention to the fact you can get the same symptoms from anxiety in other situations and it wouldn't bother you. For example, if you run a mile, you will have a fast heart rate, narrowing/dim vision, struggling for air, heavy legs, and lightheadedness/dizziness. Your gym teacher would say that's perfectly normal and a sign of a good work out. It's not bad for your body to feel that way. You just triggered the same response based on your environment. YOU ARE COMPLETELY SAFE. YOUR BODY IS COMPLETELY SAFE. EVERYTHING IS COMPLETELY FINE!
I am so grateful to hear her testimony because I feel the same way and is helpful just hearing that I am not alone.
Bless you both.
Glad it helped, you are definitely not alone!
Thanks Brittany and Shaan!
Great video Brittany & Shaan! :) If you put in the work we all can get out! ❤🙏👍
I am so grateful that she shared her story.
It really help me not yo feel so alone. Especially when she talks about not being able to watch tv! That’s how I am right now
And hearing her talk about that very same thing I am suffering from it’s very helpful to know she is enjoying those things again.
I also feel numb to live and feeling and emotions. It seems the only emotion I feel is fear. But I don feel like crying or hugging my dog or my husband. I hope I can get those feelings back.
Thank you so much 😊 go bless you!
The feelings will come back, but it takes time! Those are some of the last things to come and they come and go for a while. So glad this helped, you are on the right track!
Thank you for sharing this! I relate to all of those symptoms and it’s really tough day to day. Thank you for making me feel less alone ❤ I’ve had anxiety since mum passed on 2020 I went back into a stressful job. Then left the job and got a vestibular issue suspected inner ear issue. Im still recovering couldn’t walk or balance for about 5 months. It’s slowly getting better but long recovery and this has heightened my anxiety too! I’m not sure if trauma and anxiety has been the sole cause but it’s got worse since I’ve had it. The testimonial is really helpful and inspiring ❤Sending love to everyone ❤
You're on the right track by coming across these videos, I'm glad it helped! Hang in there!
The moment she mentioned DARE & especially Dr. Yonit’s Steady Coach, I felt like cheering happily while shedding tears at the same time! These two are my earliest resources for recovery during my anxiety peak. Dan Buglio’s Pain Free You & Jim Prussack’s The Pain PT are also awesome resources that all lead to the same thing - nervous system sensitization, or whatever term of similar meaning. They may occupy different space, applying arguably unnecessary tools for recovery, but I always believe they lead to the same goal - helping people recover. These are 2nd Generations Mentors I would say as most has earlier mentors or references. & including Shaan’s & team, legend!
Yo man just like her, I came from the dizziness/vestibular space yet stay with one (here!) & yeah true other channels also solidify that main symptoms/pain only initiate the awareness to deal with the sensitize nervous system issue.
I love their resources, I really I do. But having my own reasons, I stay with one.
Same here, I also suffer from chronic dizziness and severe anxiety and these people are getting me through this recovery journey , they are literally my go to people
What are the symptoms of dizziness please educate me on this please! Is it 24/7 dizziness and how you feel with it
I started listening to this with my heart pounding. By the end of it I can't believe how much better I feel. Thank you for this, I hope it gets better for everyone.
You'll get better soon don't lose hope❤❤❤
So glad it helped, see your body is thanking you already!
@brittanysunflowerbby I wrote this about 3 months ago when I truly didn't understand what was going on with me, had my heart checked up which came out okay, no issues observed by the doctors. Still going through the racing heartbeat (I can feel it banging/pounding at times) but now I do have a better understanding of it being tied to my anxious thoughts and anxiety in general, thank you and Shaan again for opening my eyes to what's going on with me! God bless you guys!
@@TaimurKazmi-uh2hk I'm so glad you are doing better! It does take time for everything to reset. My palpitations would come back occasionally while recovering but I didn't fear it when it did, that's the key, and they will keep dissapating if you do that!
@brittanysunflowerbby it's just crazy to understand/realize how fear and anxiety tied together can manifest into something like this, it's a crazy loop I've been stuck with but have been doing much better in coping with it/accepting it. Currently reading through Dr. Claire Weekes books to develop a deeper understanding, not assigning any timeline to my recovery but can't wait to break free!!
I have suffered for over 10 years god bless you all stay safe 🙏🏼
Brittany has the same story as me, I’m going through everything she’s going through right now and she finally made me feel FULLY seen and I really appreciate her being transparent with all of it cuz it makes me feel like what I’m going through is normal. I would LOVE to work with Shaan and join this community cuz I feel like I found my people who made feel like I’m not crazy for experiencing these symptoms. Thank you for all that you’re doing for us Shaan and I hope to work with you and especially Brittany soon!🥺
I'm so glad it helped, you've got this!
Thanks Brittany, I hope you’re doing well🥺🙏🏽💞
I was really amazed by her recovery until I heard she's on antidepressants... That doesn't mean she recovered on her own. I struggle with anxiety for 2+ years and I have been refusing to get on antidepressants cause I know I can't ever fully recover while being on them.
Antidepressants can be a miracle drug. Worth trying.
Yup thats all me over and over and over again when I talk to someone I feel better
I love it when I use to go to social gatherings and you are not even present in the moment,completelly anxious and zoned out because you are stuck in your head.And then someone tells me that i look so serious.Bro I'm Like here but my mind is stuck in the cicle.😂I noticed that it helps when you open yourself about how you feel at the moment,unless you are surrounded by bunch of assholes,but usually it helps when you just say,i feel anxious for some reason etc.People understand you.Its cool.😊Thank you guys for this interview,I wish I could give this lady a big ultra strong hug she is such a sweet heart.
I think being vulnerable and sharing how were feeling helps with the social anxiety and I bet others are feeling the same. Thanks for the big hug, received!
Jaden Christopher health anxiety video also details health anxiety symptoms which is really helpful as well hope we all recover completely ❤️
Amazing video. I had every single symptom that has been mentioned. Shaan has been amazing in my recovery. I also had a brain mri and heart monitor. Experienced trauma from a very young age all through adulthood and then major surgery and menopause. Nervous system is in disarray. I thank God for finding Shaan x
Hi. How are you doing now?
I’ve had trauma from a child and abuse so very sensitised nervous system. Also major thyroid surgery and menopause lady five years. I’m up and down but I know I will get better x
Awe it's nice to hear that you had a similar experience. I also had childhood trauma and that is all definitely related to the survival patterns we develop that leads to a nervous system break down. Hope you are doing well!
I would love to make contact with you Brittany, please reach out. I had the same journey but didn’t get help. I’m a perfectionist too had heart arythymia that came and went, brain mri, dissociation and dizzy but the whole thing passed after a few years. Hearing you speak now is like listening to a female version of me 🙏
@@brittanysunflowerbby. I would love to talk to you. I am going through this now.
Thank you for the hope and encouragement! ❤
Glad it helped!
@@brittanysunflowerbbyHello how can I reach out to you please provide me your contact of social Media 🙏🏻
Oo.. it sounds just like me and all my symtoms. And I'm so afraid it will never go away. I cry everyday all the time.
I have only experienced anxiety like once every a year or once every other year. Each time the symptoms have been similar. I burned out about a month ago and that showed up as anxiety symptoms. This time I had new symptoms I had no experienced before including the snowy / speckled vision, dizziness (feeling like I was on a boat), skipped heartbeats, and head and ear pressure and ears popping. I went to two different doctors and all of my results were good / normal. It’s so comforting to hear from people who have experienced similar symptoms. It is honestly really helping me to get out of my head about my symptoms and to fully recover. Thank you for sharing!
How is the snowy vision now ?
@@mouhannedazaza5637 my vision is completely back to normal now!
Hi, how are your ears now. I have extreme sensitivity on my ears, they pop by sound and sometimes tremble. It started very small by I feared it so much and it got worse. I am now at a point that u don't fear it much.
Ps, with popping I feal my inner ear tremble and making pop sounds by different sounds
@@Am-ej3hs they are so much better! When it first started, I had a lot of ear pressure to where it was painful. And my ears were constantly popping. They are not like that anymore and have gotten better overtime. I still experience slight pressure / popping and some fluid drainage every now and then if I have a slight setback but I just remind myself that I am still recovering and I’m doing a million times better than I was two months ago.
What is snowy vision
Inspiring ❤️
I love her description of “the nervous system is broken” because that is exactly how I feel. And also how she describes the numbness to positive emotions and hope, because that’s how I feel and that makes me more scared because that isn’t me at all.
Very relatable. Before all this, I was so easily joyful and positive. That really always felt like the real me. It's very scary to feel like your losing yourself.
It is scary, but it comes back. Apply the acceptance of feeling like shit. Never entertain the content of the thoughts, instead, ignore what they say and stick to your definition of a joyful life, write it down if necessary. Then, just keep on living. You will feel like crap, but it is important to resume life and not staying home brooding. That is the way recovery has worked for me: stick to your definition of life, there are no truths except for the one that you create for yourself, keep living and keep playing. Thoughts and sensations are just that, they are not validators of truth. Just accept their presence but don't control them, debate them or worry about them (although make sure you have anxiety and not something else, go to the doctor and get checked of course).
Keep living and keep playing, might as well, right? You'll recover and get better! ❤❤
@@ca7582 that’s a beautiful comment man, thank you 🙏🏻. I think you pretty much 100% described how I want my mindset towards recovery to be.
I love how she said “your nervous system is broken”. I think for those of us who have dealt with health anxiety, that is so important to remember. The symptoms are just a result of your nervous system being pushed to the limit.
Even numbness in toes for long period of time?
@@angeloruiz5998I'm experiencing this symptom at the moment, including fingertips for 3 weeks now.
Also, at the same time, our nervous system is working beautifully in that it's working to protect us, it just worked a little too hard for too long! Glad this video helped!
@@angeloruiz5998it's always good to get things rules out, and assuming you have, it can then be thrown under the anxiety symptoms umbrella. I also had tingling/numbness sensations.
This is exactly what threw me into the anxiety cycle. Stress followed by vestibular neuritis. The dizziness and vertigo spun off into a horrible anxiety cycle. Although I’m Getting better everyday!
What to do for getting better
So glad you are feeling better! Wild that the same thing happened to you!
"Years in the making..." then, panic attack, followed by extended health anxiety. 💯
Sounds similar to what I have been going through. ❤
Patterns;; YESSS cloudw moving ...anything even watching tv and something like a rollercoaster shows up, or a car driving id feel dizzy and not watch it .
Even talking about drs or blood work or anything would set me off.
It sounds like you are better now? I feel these things too
Did You see static? Like visual snow
I literally see my story copied and pasted while she was explaining hers, point to point it's so same
Shaan got me to see what’s really going on after getting the it’s just anxiety from the doctor. Claire Weeks helped get me on track too. Accept the mess and move on.
Same here! How's it going for you now?
I have just been diagnosed with anxiety and stress and have all the same symptoms as she’s just said. I just started my sertraline at 50mg a day hopefully i will start to feel better soon thanks for this information made me feel like am not alone
Hello , i have the same issue like you and with ssri medicine. How you doing with sertraline? Thanks
@@dumzfamvlog693 hi it will have been 3 weeks tomorrow and in all honesty am probably 70% better but i put that down to actually knowing what’s up with me and finding information about how to deal with it not the tablets. These videos on CZcams have really helped me and now i have accepted it and released its all in my head and am not going to die. I can stop if it all gets too much and do sum breathing exercises and tell my self it’s all ok and i am good after a few minutes hopefully is has helped you become i was petrified when i went to the doctor thinking i was dying
@@dumzfamvlog693when you guys both decide to get off them pls go very very slowly
Get off the tablets! I was on ssri for a year, and the withdrawal symptoms/ side-effects were/are terrible
same here, it was a disaster, but they won't tell you this.@@pk062
This is insane!!! I’m literally going through this now 18 months…and they are diagnosing me with the same..Vestibular migraines and pppd.. I’ve been getting injections for the last 5 months with very little improvement along with Nortriptyline which I’m now weaning off of…I wish I could have a conversation with her 😩
Hello! Trying to check comments a bit but Shaans program or the Steady Coach program may be very beneficial for you. It takes time to heal but these approaches will help you heal!
I'm afraid to live and afraid to die 😢
It’s a good thing that she still maintained her external life. I feel absolute rock bottom as no longer working and lost friends and family. So he’s to know how to even start when showering and going for a short walk is terrifying despite following the acceptance and letting go. Any suggestions?
Literally this story is identical to mine with 99% of the symptoms 😮
Do you have pain symptoms
I'm so glad I've seen this, 😮 but my thoracic back is also so very tight, and it spasms running all the way up to the top of my head. Diazepam doesn't really help it, unfortunately. The nausea for me is like nervous energy between my chest and gut and the feeling of malaise.
I can’t count how many times I went to the ER and how much money it has cost me!
I have almost all these symptoms. But now I developed fear of being in a foreign country and this gives me excessive panic attacks
You need to label these intrusive thoughts as anxiety and redirect your thoughts elsewhere. Attaching to fear will not help. Try to accept and remind your body that it will be safe wherever you are. If something happens you'll deal with it and until then let it go. Hope this helps, you've got this!
I experienced all these symtomes she listed
I had all this including the arrhythmia. Welcome to message keep in touch. Was like listening to myself.
Was it sinus tachycardia? I feel like i got the same, my heart got stuck at 100 bpm almost all day and it goes down at times but it's been beating faster since i fell on the cycle for very persistent periods of time
@@davidlopez879 I’m not sure bro, fell on the cycle?
@@davidlynxh1332 Yes i did. Back on Jan 10th this year and i've recovered some good days but the persistent symptoms is a heart that beats faster than it should but testing says i'm alright. Coconut water has helped tho ans God has been my medicine for sure.
Get allergy testing done and eat small meals. I’m the same
My anxiety symptoms is really bad i feel like my heart is really uncomfortable and i feel my heartbeat in my whole body and ears I get really conscious and overthinking and shortness of breath and can’t take deep breath , I’m sure I can get over this I became more healthy and strong , we can do this I will recover
I'm also in the same boat bro how much time you are suffering?
Same here. Overly conscious about the heart beats and heart rate, especially during intense activities like trekking, kayaking, etc. Can feel it everywhere.
I was on SSRI for a year and it’s been a year i am off it. Worst decision to take meds. Before meds i just had tingling and panic attacks (which could have been solved through vitamins as I had low vit D, after meds and taking vit d the tingling went away, anxiety was on and off. Now i dont have panic attacks but other symptoms
Too much health anxiety
Tightness at the epigastric region, sometimes chest when I sit. Tight stomach.
Burping, sometimes heart burn and reflux
Pulse in ear when doing intensive workouts, sometimes anywhere in the body
Fear to visit docs
Afraid to do workouts
Symptoms tend to go away at night after having a very good meal. They come back once I wake up.
You need to accept each of these symptoms and not fear them. Label them as anxiety and move on with your life. Over time you will notice a difference. Fixating and fearing only makes it worse. I hope this helps, you've got this!
I’m at a point where I have accepted what’s happening to me and just getting on with my day even if I feel super anxious and dizzy and emotional and heart racing. But I have a set back every time I get chest pain and I feel my heart pounding. That’s so debilitating to me….i try to let it be and take its course but at that moment I feel so much pain I start thinking it’s my heart and it triggers more anxiety symptoms. It’s hard for me to trust myself that it’s just my anxiety when I’m having chest pain and my heart pounding and making me dizzy.
I have all of these symptoms all day its crazy ive begged for help and cnqt get it so it makes it so much work. I havnt eaten in weeks with no apetite i get vertigo as well even sitting in a chair i feel im rocking and going to fall. I feel im not present and nothing works as well. Im always shaking its crazy i feel for everyone
You can heal and are in the right place by watching these videos. I hope this helps!
Are Yu speaking about me I have had every one of these symptoms and more wow wow wow
I would love to connect with Brittany for support as I am going through a really bad setback right now. I would love to pay her for her support. Her story is just like mine.
Hope to be able to work with her.
Hello! I'm not available to help in this way, but know that you have all the tools available to get better. You are in the right place watching these videos! We could all have so many different stories but the way to heal is the same. Accept and trust and slowly start living your life again, no matter how bad you feel. And when you feel bad, accept how you feel. If you are able to pay for help, Shaans program is a great resource! You've got this!
I can feel fine, like I'm fully recovered, then I get a physical symptom and I feel like I'm back to square one until it passes.
Current ones are dizziness, head/facial pressure , heart flutters, sometimes can't take a deep breath without coughing......just had blood tests, sinus mri, brain mri, ecg, heart monitor....waiting on results is really scary and hard.....trying to not think about it, not easy.
In short, I'm FINE without symptoms.
Why can't they just go away, it's so tiring, scary and depressing!
Unfortunately they won't go away if you keep fearing them, fighting them, etc. You have to accept them and know will come back on occasion. Recovery is not linear and those moments of a setback are even more important to double down on responding correctly. Hope this helps! You've got this!
Man overthinking everything breathing walking blinking feeling u finna faint and it’s crazy I’m only 19 so idek why I’m feeling like this
Does it get worse before it gets better? ive been doing well with this letting the anxiety be there and living my life in the last month but i feel like its kinda worse on some days! is that normal?
I believe it can. It did for me. It felt like doing exposures and trying to let go of the anxiety was so hard that it got worse sometimes. It’s been up and down. Healing is definitely not linear. The setbacks are hard but they get shorter in duration
Same like like a month my anxiety seems like high before that i doing well but suddenly this Stared again
It’s very common to have setbacks it’s part of the process to second guess yourself and the process itself.
That’s definitely part of the journey. Don’t worry about it.
Dizziness is my worst symptom, I couldnt even shower without fearing that ill faint
I get it ..
How do you feel when you’re dizzy please explain
I have anxiety because of menopause, are you able to help me?
I notice when I’m too busy and I have all things that I’m trying to manage, the worse I feel. I am a control freak! I want they it all go, I just want to be and I’m so tired.
Your body is telling you it's too much! It's good to try and listen instead of fighting it, something I've learned. Hope this helps!
BRUH that was like me. throat, arms, stomach, head, legs, chest erc everything and it was freaking crazy
Muscle weakness?
@@princessegohoungo2142 oh yea 100% that happened
How is your eye floater now are they gone or u still have them?
Omg ive got all of symptoms 😢
I love the part when she says she can enjoy coffee, alcohol and weed again! It wouldn't make much sense to non anxiety sufferers but when ya know ya know! 🤣If I have literally a sip of alcohol it gives me a panic attack. So happy for her!
Totally! It takes time to adjust to doing these things again and balance is always good. For example, I used to smoke alot more weed and drink alot of coffee but I really have cut back because I like the way I feel more without them. But you don't need to fear it!
I have Childhood trauma ! My nervous system is a mess , sensitive to all , sun , medication , when i sun its feels like sunburn and be so sick
Omg its me....😢
Sounds to me as she is in peri-menopause as I am now!
I don't know where to start with your videos
I got sunburn sensation burning all over , never fever , pain all over , anixety all time ( no medication take it away )
How to heal this
Had this months
I sometimes imagine if i could talk to u then i stopped and realised its not possible but i hope I could
My biggest symptom is breathing problem can't breathe properly I force to breath through my mouth all the time does anyone feel same is this really anxiety?
I'm having shortness of breath too.. continuously feel like taking deep breaths through the mouth like a big inhale which still doesn't satisfy me.
It's always good to get checked out by a doctor to rulw anyrhing ou, but assuming you have, fixating on a symptom never helps. Try to label it as anxiety, accept it, and move on. Hope this helps!
Yes I have that it’s prolly my worst one i could help U with it tho mines got better a little
does any one have symptoms like discomfort/pain like one side liver kidney ribs back ?
All of the above :)
oh wow thank you. i tought im very rare on this.. @@1BassJohn
yes yes yes i have all these and also my abdominal hurts at times
Does anyone have shortness of breath?
Yes all the time
@@nahidtahira9900 any solution to get rid of it ?
Yes, it's a very common sign. And you will get scared like hell. Not to worry it's temporary.
Yes it is normal, we’re getting enough breath.
Yes and it tenses my neck muscles
Are these questions that we post ever get answered??
Not speaking on behalf of the program but we are just people living our lives so I'm only now able to look through some questions. As you feel better you live your life and honestly I haven't had a chance to really dive into questions.
Why is the video tagged for POTS?
It’s basically Pots . Over stimulated central nervous system
Heart racing or skipped heart beats , blood pooling in your feet ,
Standing up makes fatigue worse
It’s all the same thing , your main goal is if that your main symptom, is to try to shift it or lesson the symptoms
If you can get to a point to where it goes away but randomly comes back then that’s 100% mind/body somatic experience
Read Dr Sarno books and journal
I wonder if anybody also experienced headaches or pressure on both sides of the back of the head near the nape?
Yeah me too pressure on the back of the head then trembling and feeling sick.
Yes this is a symptom of mine tjay comes and goes (particulqrly when im stressed) and can be a result of nervous system disregulation. Hope this helps!
Same as mine ,back of head and upper neck stiffness, also sensitive scalp area in the back
Yes me . I have headaches at the back of my head
Iv had too axienty attacks i dnt think we can fully recover it is there as a mechanism and if we trigger that with traumas, life death work everthing in life sleep you will shock the nervouse system
You have to take it one step at a time and slowly you will heal. I do believe everyone can recover regardless of their past but it tales work and repitition and time and patience.
What exactly did Brittany do to get over the anxiety?
I joined Shaans program, but I essentially learned to start living life again and taking my symptoms with me and accepting how I felt. It slowly healed. Hope this helps!
Were her hip paun actually anxiety then in the end and operations wernt reauired really
It is an interesting question and one I've been thinking about but the surgeries seemed to work! For now at least!
@@brittanysunflowerbby are you hypermobile? Just going on TMS research Dr schubiner his test his did your hip move past normal range of motion of course if your hypermobile it would anyways
Is anyone here who recovered from health anxiety and panic attack and death anxiety? Plz guide me. Plz
Certainly sounds like me.
Please elaborate on insomnia, this is my most debilitating symptom. I can sleep at all!!
I did not struggle with this but some did in the program and they were able to recover!
That’s what I have, it’s normal.
I have woken up barely have slept, sometimes in shock, panic attack ready
It happens, it’s cause your subconscious is starting to have issues
But it’s normal, I have had this before
Did your ringing in ears ever go away? @@brittanysunflowerbby
Sitting/standing upright straight feels challenging 🤦🏾♀️
It's fear or fainting or tipping over😂 I get it. And if I get that weird light headed feeling I panic....until I realize it goes away and I need to stop worrying to death. No use worrying. It ALWAYS went away. Always. It's just anxiety. Not a health issue .
@@liztowers2058 it feels like something such as POTS because I feel like my heart is beating faster and I am swaying back and forth just feeling lightheaded.
Matter of fact, My muscles feel weak in general and small tasks get me easily tired. Exercise intolerance.
Yeah just venting rn
yep same here, and its usually worse week before my cycle starts i cant function. anxiety mimics POTS so much only way to tell for sure is Dr rules it out.@@princessegohoungo2142
This was challenging for me too. Moving helped me. Just keep accepting and do not fear it and it will slowly go away. Hope this helps, you've got this!
So it took her 5 months to recover that nice
It probably seemed a bit more simple in the video, I felt SO much better at that point but it takes a long time to fully recover. I still have symptoms sometimes. Try not to compare. That alone is sending a message to your body that is not acceptance and that shows down recovery. Hope this helps!
Always set your own goals, don’t set 5 for you
We are all different, if you push your body you won’t do much
Some people take 2 or maybe 5 years
Some maybe a month
It’s all about you coming to terms slowly, accepting what’s going on, and then going through it
@@thechazz8080 GOTCHU!!🙏
How about you guys
Could it be a b1 deficiency
Why eye flaoters comes in anxiety ?
Nerves affect eyes too. It'll go away.
Yes
Yes this can be a symptom as well!
@@liztowers2058did your floaters go away?
All same symptoms
Did anybody faced motion sickness during anxiety
Yes
@@crystalH30 how did you recover from it. How long did it take? Are you still having symptoms?
@@deepakkumarthakur9434 Hi yes I’m still having Symptoms I believe anything triggering brings those symptoms back Any kind of stress or emotional stress sometimes leads me back to feeling off balance.. it does tend to dissipate once you focus on other things hang in there.
Yes definitely, it can be a symptom of nervous symptom disregulation. Hope this helps!
What is sad they charge you a fortune to help you , How sad is that. Shame on the people that take advantage of the people that are hurting.
There are many free resources out there, including videos and books and some other programs too. If cost is a factor maybe try to order Claire Weekes book as a start, for example. Hope this helps! Strangely paying money for something helped me really take it seriously so I made the right call for myself to participate in the program.
Disappointing for me, because it was strange to me that it is half a year from April to September and she is already recovered, that she worked on herself and at the end she says that she takes Zoloft antidepressants. It didn't occur to me how quickly, so it's not the real healing with your work and your method, when she takes antidepressants, it means that the drugs helped her get rid of many symptoms.
Medication won’t stop the cycle completely, it gives people a bit of relief but it doesn’t change the way you react to anxiety. Which is something you need to learn to fully overcome. Medication doesn’t do that. That’s why doctors recommend medication and therapy , not only medication.
@@GuadalupeGomez-ms6uo a
I know what drugs are and how they work and what therapies are, but as long as there is a drug, it does a lot of work for you. The point here is that I believed in this technique, that people can get over it without antidepressants, not that they take antidepressants and recover themselves with the technique, that is a lie. If she got rid of 40 symptoms in half a year, it would be a great miracle, but she is basically on medication
@@GuadalupeGomez-ms6uocompletely wrong. Not only did AD's stop the occasional panic attack for me but eliminated 100% of anxiety for me. You know how they say we'll never be able to live life without anxiety, well I was able to. I remember the day i went to a therapist and just left after 20 minutes because I simply told her I never felt so good in my life and worry free. What happened after I stopped the AD's is another story. Now in case of Brittany I think she took the right approach, therapy coupled with medication. Shaan's approach is the correct approach to anxiety. Its good that she was thought these coping skills. BUT there is no way for Brittanys to know ATM where her coping skills stop and medication takes over. Maybe its simply that the medication she is taking is WORKING, imagine that. And it works for a lot of people. Now when she starts the tapering process, thats when the REAL work begins as her brain has to find the homeostasis again which is out of balance due to AD's.
I did therapy and got put on AD's. Let me tell you, I was "cured" in record time. Something like 3-4 months. Not only was I back to normal but better than normal. After 10 or so months on AD's I tried to quit them. Ohh boy. I can't even describe it as the returning of my underlaying condition. That's when the true chemical anxiety, and depression, something I was not even put on Ad's for, hit on top of what I had before. Please do another interview with Brittany after she has been off AD's for at least a year. Then we can talk about a success story.
I will say 8 months in now that it takes a long time to fully recover. There were still times after this where the symptoms would come back. Once you start applying the principles of what shaan is teaching you can recover very quickly, which I did. I was shocked at how much better I felt righr away, but it can take a long timw to fully reset your nervous system. For clarification I was on 25mg of an SSRI which isn't even a typically starting dose and I'm now down to 12mg and feel fine. It can help lesson the volume of symptoms in the beginning I feel but it's not the solution to long term healing. Hope this helps clarify!
Guy's how to deal with emotional anxiety. Its scary
Fck!! 😢😢😢😢 I have the same symptoms as hers 😔😔😔😔😔😔
You will get better!
Awesome. Can we talk to Brittany?
I'm looking through comments as much a possible. Let me know if you have a specific question!
wtf i even need to remember hell days
Perfectionist s asperger's adhd
Saw an old comment of yours, are you less anxious now?
@@viz8732no still got fybromyalgia symptoms everyday are you hypermobile
I will be happy to pay good pay.
I can help you we can talk you don't have to pay you shouldn't have too,so my axienty attacks were a year apart and were everything Brittany described, now that it happen to this extent I have realized it has been built up over time child hood trauma, bad habits,diet, overthinking about death family God every day is alot it is important we practice good habit that ensure positive eating and thinking! Axienty has fear but Faith is love and it will overcome God bless
She missed insomnia. Lol
Yeah it’s horrible.
I did not experience this luckily but there were many people in the program that suffered from this that recovered using the same principles.
Can she get to the point instead of talking so so much.
There's a lot of nuances with nervous system recovery. I felt compelled to be as specific as possible. I'm just a regular human living life. These are volunteers that share their stories. I hope you find what you're looking for and choose to lift others up in the future!
@@brittanysunflowerbbyI am trying to help a person who is vaccine injured, maybe I am looking for instant answers.
