- Have you been feeling overly anxious lately? Or are you worried that your loved ones might be suffering from a mental illness? If you want to be more informed about the warning signs of a mental illness, here are a few early warning signs of mental illness.
Disclaimer. This video is meant to be informative. It is not a guide for self-diagnosis. If any of these points apply to you or someone you know, please seek professional medical help.
Note: How do you help someone with a mental illness? When placed in that situation, many of us do not know what to do. Typically, you might offer words of support or encouragement. You may want to try to solve everything. However, sometimes your seemingly good intentions can come off as abrasive or insensitive. When trying to help someone with a mental health illness, listen. Listen to that person and allow them to voice whatever they are feeling and validate them. Do not try to diagnose them or consult them. Please leave that to a mental health professional. Also, inform yourself about the mental illness and its warning signs so that you can refer them to a professional if necessary. (taking into account if they want to get help also. Don’t try to force anyone).

If you found out someone close to you had early signs of mental illness, what would you do for them and yourself?
I would tell them to get help and if they dont I'll try to help
I would tell them i’m here for them and suggest for them to get help by talking to a professional. But if they don’t want to i would make sure to be by their side whenever they need.
I would also talk to them about my own mental health to let them know they sent alone because knowing someone has the same feelings and that your not alone is very comforting.
1. I would google them and talk to a close friend maybe
1. If I felt that bad, then I would talk to a professional
I’ve learned it’s completely normal
I would probably tell them to do meditation and breathing exercises daily and try and help them as much as i can but i might tell them to get a professional involved
1. Excessive anxiety
2. Social withdrawal
3. Changes in sleeping and/or eating habits
4. Difficulty perceiving reality
5. Increasing inability to deal with daily problems
6. Drop in overall performance
7. Unexpected physical symptoms
8. Unhealthy coping mechanisms
Like gotta admit I have most of these

Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Woah how did you get all this if the video only premiered 15 seconds ago and you posted this comment an hour ago?
Why does it say you made this an hoir ago
as someone who has been diagnosed with anxiety and autism a lot of these things are part of me its hard for me but I'm getting back on track
@Tom Simons ᨆ what
I go out at night and dress in all black and look all scary and doing this is really how I cured anxiety lol.
I hope you're doing okay, I'm sending you all my support and good vibes 💟
good for you! that’s awesome

"Are you having sleeping problems?"
Yeah, my biggest problem is that demon called mobile phone that haunts me at night.
The demon known as "Mobilapho" is a demon that attacks their victims at midnight. Mobilapho utilise "Yuteb" to distract their victims from their much needed slumber. Mobilapho favourite victims is an INFP as for they're easily confused by a new concept that intriguing enough for their never ending curiousity. Once an INFP fallen prey to Mobilapho, their curiousity will be suck of of their body making them isolating themselves from the public.
@@urmom9663 Well it's my job as an INFP myself to screw up my life and I'm deeply apologize that you got caught in the crossfire.
It haunts us all. Only some can abate it’s unending calls.
I had Megganon😮😢... I'm on saraquil Now 😊.. He is gone
If u r seeing this:
Eat well
Drink a lot of water
Exercise
And do what makes you happy~
If u have any mental health issues pls get some help and talk to ur close one's, if u have~

I don’t want to be rude or something but not really a good advice for people who ACTUALLY have mental illness. No matter how much we “take care of ourselves”, the illness isn’t going to go away or the situation get any better.
I'm analyzing myself because I suck at describing how I feel. So this video helps a lot. I kinda have social withdrawal. That's because most of my friendgroup didn't appreciate nor wanted to understand how I function in the group. Hence why I only got a few friends

That's right make sure you shun everyone. Ok and make sure you throw that judgement call. Heights is ok to be afraid of and no really no one knows how someone feels. If they get a whole of you when you don't want it or do want it what I have learned is you do this stuff on your own. Friends and finding a man or who ever you gravity to is hard. It has nothing to do with mental illness. It has do do with the crazy society we live in and people just not caring. Good luck and who knows who you will meet and how they will treat you.its not all in the brain when you can't get what you need to go forward and have fun with your control freaks.
Very true .
I constantly hear my name get called throughout the day at random times. It sounds like someone is calling for me but when I ask they say they didn’t. So I don’t know if this is me hearing things or them messing with me
oh no😞, ive watched videos of people experiencing psychosis and thats the most common early sign. hearing ur name called by a voice. i hope ur okay❤️ please reach out for help!
It could just be that you heard your name getting called one day and now it's kinda in your head so you're subconsciously thinking about it and it just happens because of anxiety and stress.. I mean one or two symptoms can't equate to a full blown mental illness, talk to your doc best of luck! ❤️
That happens to me sometimes. Not that often, but often enough for it to puzzle me. I hear my mum calling me from the other room, yet she claims she hasn't. One time I thought I saw a message from a friend on Discord, but they said they never sent it. I distinctly remember it being a question me about my thoughts on another person we both know, but that's only happened once. Idk
Its clairaudience a psychic sense.
it can be both a sign of a healthy mind or a little bad take care of yourself
My academic performance has been abysmal this past year. My grades have dropped, I lost a scholarship, I didn’t get into the right classes. I’ve been really hard on myself because I should’ve done better but these videos help me give myself grace. If you’re reading this and you’re struggling right now, if you made a mistake or feel like you really messed up or that you’re behind in life, please know you can always bounce back. At least that’s what I’m telling myself.
Me knowing that I have one but watching it anyway:
*Interresting*
Self awareness confirmed. :)
To everyone, I hope you are doing well. Watching Psych2Go really makes me feel better as a human being.
Hey I think I saw you on daily dose of internet
@@jennyneon how are u?
@@jennyneon glad to hear that. I'm just struggling with studies but other than that I'm good 😀
Sometimes I don't even feel human
Happy to hear that you feel better!
i haven’t been to school since april its now august. i haven’t been to school because i can not honestly interact/socialise with people anymore. well i guess it depends where i am.. but at school i can not anymore.. it happened after my grandad died.. honestly did not expect it to hit me as much as it did 🙂….
I'm sorry. Everything will be okay, you've just got to trust that, even when you don't feel like it:)
I'm sorry for your loss.
Actually its August
I am so sorry for your loss... And remember the first step to becoming better is realizing that you need to become better and how to. You've done this, and you'll be okay, you're not alone and people, including us here in the comments section care about you
@@samuelhere41 LMFAO YES my bad 😭
Thanks to those people who writes the main points for everyone.It really helps and saves our time. You guys are so kind.
Love ya 😊
After a bad Trauma i suffer with anxiety.I just want to let YOU know: you are not alone 💜
Yes, we are not alone 💜🙂
@@streamepiphany9932 💜💜💜
I relate to a lot of these, especially when and I was 17 and now 18...but now I'm trying to turn it around and take control of my life, and not to fear how others think or feel and disregard them. although I don't know how my future will go, I'm going to take care of myself, because *no one* else will.
Next Monday I'l start studying Psychology in college, I'm so excited!!
i’m so happy for you🙌
@@atina.asmr0 thanks!
Insults are the last resort of the weak-minded when they feel powerless.
Narcissists: only a stupid person would say that
I’m really grateful that this is free to watch. It really became a therapy and motivation for me to fix my lifestyle, before I discovered this channel I’ve been through struggles a lot especially with the pandemic. I would always sleep late, woke up late and ate less that changed everything even my mindset and I had a very intense glow down. There were times when I would just lock myself up in my room and cry for hours, I lost my self esteem and confidence but after I saw a video from this channel about unhealthy habits I started to change myself, and now I’m doing great. The pain is still here but it’s getting better and more easier to handle.
So for all of those people out there suffering from anxiety, depression, panic attacks, or whatever you are going through I want you to know that you can do it and overcome it if I can do it so can you. Please don’t lose hope, I love you.

What about ADD attention deficit disorder
@@jacquelinelowe6324 I always had issues paying attention to anything for less than 5 minutes at a time, so yes! :3
I am experiencing all of these symptoms from a very long time and it's more noticeable now . My grades have significantly dropped , I can't do the things I was good at any more . I have zero social life . I even get weird physical symptoms like headache , fatigue , vomiting all of a sudden . But I'm so scared to seek help . It's just very difficult for me , people thinks I'm overreacting or making this up when I talk about it . Specially this month has been the worse . Thankyou for this
I was diagnosed with depression, anxiety and an initial eating disorder and before the diagnosis this was and still is my day to day life and honestly it affects my work life, social life, personal life, well, everything lol
Early, I’m showing this to my brother to convince him that he has a mental illness because he seriously needs help- also, perfect timing for the notification as I was already talking about him and his mental illnesses with my grandmother.
While these feelings are real, their is no medical test to prove anyone has a mental illness
You make me feel better when in terms of this health condition.🙇🏻♀️ During this pandemic, I hve known some things about myself that I haven't paid attention before.😔
Hey, glad we could help you :) Please take care
@@Psych2go yes I will. Thank You so much! 🙇🏻♀️
I'm trying to take care of myself.
Has anyone been eating a lot? Like way more than ever? I always hear about how people don’t eat but I eat so much before or during my times, I wake up and eat whenever I’m not all the way full to the point where I want to throw up or my stomach hurts, I always want to feel full, I just want to know if there’s someone els out there with this symptom?
Haven't experienced that... does that happen every day for a longer period of time? If that is connected to some sort of stress or other psychological problems, that can be the reason. Also that might be happening because of some physical illness. I would recommend visiting a doctor if that keeps happening for a long time
There's times where I eat way more than usual but also times I eat way less
I feel like I have to eat even when I’m not hunger, I try not to but if I don’t then I feel sick and my mom gets mad at me for not eating
Personally when im feeling okay i tend to eat normal and have all three meals, or at least 2, but whenever im really down i forget about food. I dont drink enough water, or eat enough at all,so i always have random weight fluctuations from it and it sucks. My metabolism is probably fucked cause of me constantly under eating, over eating and eating healthy. I also have an eating disorder so that only makes it worse.
Isabel, I suffer from anxiety. Through intermittent fasting (I use the Fastic app), I realized that I was eating to soothe my anxious feelings. Once I became aware of what I was doing, it became easier to stop eating excessively and only eat when I experience true hunger. I hope this helps you. 😊
i love this channel and i love how her sound is so calm and friendly ♥️
Social Media and Metal Health. A video i liked czcams.com/video/d97mTNxfn-k/video.html
These videos are just signs my dad should take me to get tested I'm pretty sure I have some mental illness
the physical symptoms one and the irritability . also the first pint. i used to have a problem with sleeping , but i feel lie it's getting better so.. yea.
Prithvija, Heal yourself. Reduce negative thoughts. Its quite simple like I have been doing for years. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts and anxiety For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back erect, hands on lap with palms upwards, eyes closed, be still and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 5-10-15 minutes or more. Slowly negative thoughts will reduce and relax the mind. Deep inhalation is not needed. Whenever you are free during the day or night before sleep sit or lie down, be still and observe your breath. Being still reduces negative thoughts. Make the above practice a permanent habit to have a relaxed and successful life. Best wishes and prayers. Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.
Recent life events have made me feel worse than I have in a very long time. I was on a good track and doing better for myself before, and now I'm sliding down a slippery slope into alcoholism and substance abuse. Bad times come and go, but sometimes the bad sticks around for way too long
Wanna share if you're doing better now, even if it's a little bit?
@ferragamodes6769 Sure! Thank you for your time! I truly appreciate it!
I had a pretty rough start to this year. This led me to do something super drastic: I took therapy. Thanks to this, and a combination of the biggest thing I feared happening did end up happening - I lost the fear of "the worst possible outcome" and now feel so free and liberated.
I am currently taking big steps in following my dreams, and I'm in a much better place! 😃 Things get much better once you lose your fear of failure and are willing to take risks
Your voice is calming 😌keep going 😽
2:08 that bed looks awesome
That voice is so soothing. Its a therapy in itself.
Well to be honest I love these drawings ❤🧡💛
Thanks! 😊

One sign that I have a mental illness. I go out wearing a shirt that says 25 reasons why life is not worth living lol.
I want that shirt
Y'all I definitely needed this video today.
Thank you 💞
ooohhh love this animation style! So smooth and cinematic love the colors aswell :D
Thank youuu! 😊
Should I go see a therapist? Because I relate to most of these signs. I had a feeling that I had ADHD. Maybe I am having? I don't know I am scared
I feel you :)
If you think you have then I would get a therapist to make sure
Same...it scares me too but I feel like getting help would be the best choice
If you relate this all, I think you should go to therapy
A psychiatrist maybe.
1. My parents say they will buy me a dog and then I expect more and later they will say no breaking my heart it happened 3 times which broke me and not only dog many things
2. My bestie i feel distanced with her because of many problems, her cousin torching me and her mentally for stopping our friendship but we can't do it but somehow without our knowledge I changed bcz of it and her parents also doesn't like our friendship much and always restrict her but she still love me so much and does things which I never deserve am so lucky to have her in life but... Because of these I doesn't feel that close to her 💔 somehow my mind says tell her this and be free but my heart doesn't allow me to lose such a precious gem... 😔
I DON'T KNOW BUT YOUR VOICE IS SO SWEET AND ALWAYS MAKES ME SMILE
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS AND YOUR VOICE
I truly fit into all of the above. I don't really like watching these videos, they make me more aware of these issues & although i am not seeking help i am glad i watched this video. Learning there's a problem reminds me to continue seeking a healthier lifestyle. I don't want a diagnosis cause it would feel like accepting these issues. Ultimately i fit the symptoms to many disorders. My approach has been to force healthy habits, faking it till i make it. I have seen improvement especially in my social anxiety. I try to stay positive
I have most of these. But yeah who cares. Even i dont care about my own mental health now
Noo there r many people who care if there are none your wrong 🥺
Take care k?
Same bud even though I suffer a lot of this *pain but I dont care, especially if its going worse and stay safe
@@GKIBS same. I don't care anymore.
Social Media and Metal Health. A video i liked czcams.com/video/d97mTNxfn-k/video.html
I can't care I have to suck it up a go on with my life
When you realize you have all of them but you're trying to convince yourself that you're completely fine....
*Couldn't be me*
Same I always have dreams and I think it’s real and even when Ik it’s a dream, I still think it’s real and my sleep schedule is horrible
I can't relate more
Same I relate too a lot of these like maybe 3 or 4
This is either very helpful to people who force themselves to be extroverts or a huge callout to every major introvert
CBT does help me manage my anxiety. Thank you for this video it means a lot
Psych2Go: *Sometimes you might read all about mental illnesses online and how it affects people.*
Me: **on youtube watching videos about mental illnesses and how it affects people.** *Huh...*
Read more books on this topic to prepare your self from behind hurt from unknown peoples
Stay Positive guy's
Unless you think you have Covid- then please don't stay positive
You should know that tou have a beautiful voice, very soothing and relaxing. You earned my sub !
i lost a lot of the people who were close to me, who i thought were going to be in my life for years and years. friends for life you know? i’m still trying to heal from it, as i knew them for such a long time. it sucks.
i know i should get help but i'm too afraid to tell someone, even those who are close to me :(
I'm autistic, but that doesn't stop me from being artistic and topping my art classes and work upon astrophysical theories. PS I'm in 12th grade.
a fact !
The fact these videos have sent me to tears probably says something....
Hey it's okay.
I know I need a therapist since last year but this year I was doing well but for the last months I’ve been having some episodes, but this video made me realise that I really need a therapist at this moment because even tho it seems like what I’m going through is not a big deal it definitely have something to do with my mental health.
I’ve been having difficulty sleeping, I only sleep when the sunrise and I don’t know why, I’ve been avoiding eating and I’ve been exhausted even tho I’m not doing anything. I definitely need to see a professional
Well.... to be true as a person who was diagnosed with ADHD a bunch of this stuff has been happening to me and some of it still happens even after therapy and help of doctors and to all the people with simmilar problems... i hope you guys can get the help you need and that it will get better for you in some time cause i know that it sometimes can get really horrible... so stay safe i guess
Thank you you too
I really started to hate my family since they denied that I'm suffering and I'm mentally ill. I feel that I don't wanna take any step in my life. I'm really exhausted and feel that I'm gonna stay all my life like this. I really need help 😞😩
I view these videos and they help me a lot and point me in the right direction.
Thank you for your advise
Yes finally they talk about depersonalization I struggle a lot with and it can cause me to have grand Mal seizures I wish a video can be made about it so I can show people who think I’m just making it up for attention that it’s real and how debilitating it can really be
This is so far, the smoothest animation in Psych2Go. Riva Ceres, you get a well deseeved break
Awwwh 😭😭 Thank you for such kind words!! ✨
Thanks! Riva did a great job!
for real it is cute and smooth i love it
Thanks & good job. I'm beginning to question the basic assumptions of psychology. Is the person or the society mentally ill? If a person is mentally ill because of trauma from toxic culture maybe the problem is external, not internal.
I’m in the U.K.
I’ve been feeling a large percentage of these feelings, visited Doc & instantly put on Sertraline,
That was 2 years ago…asked for further help….eg analyst or Talking therapy …still waiting,
Still feeling destroyed.
These videos actually give me some relief, in that ..I ain’t alone, & have the common symptoms simplified.
No words can fix mental health. It only takes love to get it & fix it

I love you people
♥ I was wondering if perhaps you (Psych2Go) could do a future video on the "Double Standard" of putting family thru our mental challenges while being able to hide our conditions from the rest of society. Because it's not like many of us want to hurt the ones we love. And how can we learn to be more transparent without stigma and prejudice?
Thank you!
Oh I learn a new thing, thanks.
I didn't know for the connection between prolactine, stress and mental illness. That's why sometimes I don't know if it's stress or mental illness/disorder, or something else.
I got 10 free session with psychologist/therapist, It didn't help me as much as I expected (depression and anxiety)
Video helped me more than the psychologist/therapist. Sessions are too short and expensive, and take my time for not enough solution for me.
I try to get better my myself, with video and comments.
Edit : I read some comments under, and it break my heart to know there are many children who suffer, and parents ignore it.
I am 32 years old, and my mother is same, ignore mental health. How to help all people ?
Take care of your yourself and your mental health 💚
Such a relief to know that I'm ill and not just tricking people around me to seek attention. Yet looking for a therapist seems quite impossible... I can barely get up to drink water. Nice🙂
Hey Amina, thanks for sharing. Have you considered online therapy?
@@Psych2go Not really, but it might help. Anyway, trying won't make it worse. Thank you for the idea! 😁
I’m mentally ill. I was diagnosed with gender dysphoria and my dysphoria kills me. I can barely sleep and I drink to feel better. I can’t wait to get hormones and become a girl! 😭
Good luck with those illnesses, you've got it. You're doing well : )
Gender dysphoria isn't itself a mental illness according to the DSM-5 but it can cause mental disorders mainly depression and anxiety but also disorders that can be caused by childhood trauma like BPD and also it's believed that a poor environment as a child can increase the risk of schizophrenia
I've had a lot of things that felt like small symptoms, but today, one hour before I wrote this comment, I got an attack were I heard voices in my head, blaming me. This is really worrying me.
aaa im early nice video!! This rlly helped
she is my everything, she is my reason. now i just lost her. i was so selfish thinking that i was doing a good job treating her like the best friend i have. im wrong, so wrong.
1. Nobody can be your everything. 2. To say so is not a compliment, it's desperate. 3. Get your sh*t together, and try again.
@@m2pozad honestly agreeing with you. Sanji you have to get a grip before I call a professional help on you
Well, this is the sign- *sighs*
I’m going to see doctor this week I hope I get joy again in my life. Depression and anxiety are killing my body .
How are you now honey?

Bipolar disorder runs in my family and im beginning to show signs(appreantly signs arise around my age) and some symptoms have been massive parts of my personality and journey. I now am scared that im not even me... that all i am is Bipolar. Like the things i wanted were all guided by my illness.

After working for 47 years and raising a family it's my preference to stay at home and not be around people as much as possible
I'm totally content and love my life 😊
Thank you for your blogs of information and education. I suffer from depression. I also have eating issues. Overweight. I also have uncontrollable crying. I have stress triggers. I caused my daughter anxiety. She needs my help. But I think she's really helping me. I don't know if she talked to her father or not. I know I'm letting you into my personal private mental business but you have touched on the very things that I have talked to my therapist. I am taking medications for the anxiety depression and maybe forms of schizophrenia. I do w r i t e into in a journal . My therapist is suggesting meditation therapy. But thank you for showing the various types of depression and the various types of forms of behaviors that are in mental health.
Ive been here, still going, and still fighting!
You know most of these I experience. Thanks I’ll seek some help
I’m so happy I found her man she helps a lot

It kicked what I was already possibly dealing with into a whole new gear after I was in a wreck that wasn't properly handled
this was good thanks for doing this
All of these happens with me. I just want to stop talking to myself, stop hallucinating, and many more. I have no friends and no one to talk to. My family problems are never ending. I don't know what to do. My head hurts and feels heavy unexpectedly.
@psych2Go you all are super freaky with your timings dude , anyways as always thanks for another wonderful video . i made 2 of my friends subscribe cause you know everyone ought to have good mental health .😊
I remember my dreams everyday, Most of them are dreams of a full work day, and then wake up to my alarm to go to work.
Another very great & important video,that though doesn't relate me now,but I like this anyways.
Also I wish y'all awesome people amazing day.
It is the bestttttt animation after sooo long time dear ...🤗🤗
Thanks Yodaaaa! 😊
