- Ask Amy: I have intrusive thoughts that won't leave me alone. How can I see this differently?
Betty (my grandma's name, not this questioner's real name!) has thoughts that are incredibly disturbing to her. They keep coming back over and over again.
Betty just can't get over the fact that they are there. Why are they there, if they aren't hers? What do they mean? Why won't they leave?
That's exactly the problem. This is SUCH a common question I get. Please listen to hear a very different side of intrusive thoughts.

Hi, I've just found your channel. You have totally explained in 11 minutes what I've been struggling with and doing all wrong for 26 years. Things in my mind are so ingrained and stuck from a young age and emotional trauma it's so hard to get them unstuck but your vid really helps, so thank you very much. Hopefully this is a positive turning point for me.
Omg the memory game analogy is soooooo great!! Thank you. I will be using this to help explain to others :)
I love this! So helpful !
The mind plays tricks on us which affect our well being, because we know we really aren't at work, hence the reaction to intrusive thoughts, yet it's just easy to try to take the bait showing up, for security, as this is what mostly everyone knows to do, rather than go on about their business. It really takes time to not just see, but proceed without worry, since we're all human, and therefore the recognition to our natural state of being mostly gets lost, due to how blinding our exteriors as human beings are, since we usually get sucked in to seeing ourselves as only being just flesh and bones, while everything else is subtle.
Can you please tell me which podcast it is that you created for intrusive thoughts that you were talking about in the video? And do you have more videos or anything on this subject?
