The thought of doing something out of the ordinary with OCD is crippling. The 2nd episode made me cringe just because I understand. I’m so glad I found a medicine to help me. OCD was ruining my life
Good for you! Which medicaments and (or) therapy you used?
I didn’t want “A Doll Distorted” to end! Seriously! Loved all but that was my fave! The editing, color, all so artistic! Acting was spot on!! I really should be sleeping…but uh, addicted. Good job!!!
Omg, same. Loved that one.
I've been watching Alter for 3 weeks straight now, turn it on right after work..lol
When people cut themselves with kitchen knifes...why don't they wash their hands before putting a bandage on in Alter shorts hahaha
Right. I knew she was going to cut the 💩 out of herself. Yet, she'd probably get an obsession with cleaning it & would wind up with 150 stitches or 50 stitches 3 X's! 🙃
Imagine something that terrifying coming into your room, and you can't escape, completely paralyzed with fear and there's nothing you can do about it.
Paralisia do sono
Shit happens , sleep paralysis be hitting me all the time , trick is acceptance , as soon as ur brain realized that your consciousness is over it , your brain gets bored of trying to scare you
Sleep paralysis is a hell of n experience
Yup. Sleep paralysis is a tough one. I find if I concentrate on moving just my big toe (left one), it usually snaps me out of it.
I am so into these short stories…so well done! Thanks for sharing this daily fix! 🤗🍿🤓🍹
Ok him rubbing the cat and her playing with the cat had me in tears
Smile - Smile was truly scary which gives the message that the girl never tries to overcome the depression which leads her to despair. Smile horror movie is quiet similar to the short movie Laura Can't sleep. Thank you ALTER.
The Rule of three - Already watched this and I too suffered such kind of rule in my past and still recovering.
Coil - watched this one as well, and it show how the girl take control over her anxiety by accepting it and hiding it within her.
Insecticide - This short is quite complex which tells us kind of a message of a girl who lives alone and suffer from her loneliness.
A doll distorted - this movie was truly scary which made me think that the girl killed her husband due to her haphephobia and kept him in pieces in her freezer due to his lack of understanding and negligence. When she buys her a doll and suffers her guilt over killing her husband.
Stories of the subconscious mind - This was truly awesome and needs a feature film. It's kind of like Jennifer Lopez movie The Cell.
I think insecticide is actually about germophobia - she's washing everything (even her body) with bleach, but still feels like it's not enough so she literally quarantines herself. It depicts her fear of dirt in the monster she sees.
Coil:PROOF YOU CANT EAT EVERYONES COOKIN 😮😅😅😅😅
Nice Compilation! Many thought, that they are fighting the Darkness, but they were they Darkness. 🖤
Know your enemy
"Neutralize the fear, I am in control." ❤💫
The most scary thing abt this is watch her to put a curative in her wounds without clean it
The strange and the macabre.
Incredible video imaginarium
I love these 6 part series😅🎉❤
That “doll distorted” thing is real
Rule of three...what is stronger fear or ocd....fear it is!
Man you're shorts are top notch. Love it.
Trying to control over ocd is impossible. The way out is to learn how to be comfortable feeling fear, to get use to this feeling without running away to coping mechanisms. Taking control by actually acknowledging you can't control everything. There is very little that you actually can control, and it's fine. It's like that for everybody.
I like how in this short the girl is afraid of fear itself, not of an actual existing danger. It describes ocd maybe even too well.
34:50 this is like a Alice n chains music video or something.. weird shit, but cool AF
30:26 i am not going to tell what this is looking like
These are some great stories 👌 😊
You're sooo much prettier when you smile, dear...
The acting with the music ... Had me thru them all ..very cool....😳
Awsome,,thanku 💯👍
Those were all awesome! The story starting at 36:40 "A Doll Distorted" was my favorite.
31:49 rip headphone users
You are the best👍👍👍
Please someone tell me what's going on with Coil??? I loved it, it reminds me of living with addiction.
I believe it's a visual representation of an anxiety disorder. Maybe specifically a social anxiety disorder. she's trying really hard to be there for her friend, but everything seems to be getting in the way.
Ya this one i couldn't figure out.
When she opens the door, does it mean that she's going to act herself and screw whatever anyone else thinks, not sure
I didn't get it at first but this makes a lot of sense actually.. I'm someone with a lot of anxiety and sometimes it takes A LOT of effort to pick up a phone call .. honestly , even the feeling of something crushing you from the inside is not an exaggeration.
So like "The Strangers"?
You're just asking for trouble cooking in a long-sleeved white top. Bad decision eating while watching that one.
Extremely! I'm so disgusted. I wish they'd put a trigger warning up right before it begins. I would've skipped to the next.
love this great
Отличный фильм. Все конвульсии в теме. Есть над чем подумать и от чего шарахнуться.😀😶🤓
Omg I’m terrified of Spiders all kinds.
Film² pendek Alter selalu menegangkan👍 sy sangat suka tapi sayang tidak ada teks bahasa Indonesia, jd malas nyimaknya🙏
I have ocd hate it cant cope with it at times it is type off ocd that offects me with losing friends no one understands me it feels lonely at times 😢
A Doll Distorted; Eerily epic 😳👌
Such a favorite channel of mine!!! Awesome!!🙏💯🖕
Yep me too ❤
This film can horroring me, for this, 👍👍
I don't like to smile. So this was terrorizing for me.
por favor coloque traducao automatica...obrigada
Would be nice if there would be ability to skip some, I have seen a few already. Still cool collection, I like it.
Last film i watched before 💪
Wow smile is the real scary.. 😊😊😊😊😊
26:46 just scoop out the worms and keep going 🤫
The 2 nd. I was wondering, were the 3 killers representing her OCD, doing her rituals in a series of 3?
Smile reminds me of the joker from Batman 😅
First 5 minutes in, and I'm like, 😅nope...
But i did watch lmao
Hey Alter how are you
Why didn’t she wash her hands after cut her hand n continued to handle food ?!?
Or after she flushed the toilet. She just ran her hand through her hair. She's just gross!
Someone explain the last one to me
the OCD girl was hilarious!
I've got ZERO belief in that crap, so I found it very funny and entertaining; it actually shows just how ridiculous these attention-seeking people are.
Also why didn’t she wash her hands after she flushed the toilet
No one cleans their hands first before putting bandages on🤣
Who can’t relate to “a doll distorted”?
🖤👍
Honestly some of these have a lot of potential and the acting is really great but it's just the format is a little distracting to me. Like the one with the doll, that really seemed like a 9 inch nails music video the whole time. It was kind of hard to keep up with the storyline
It was okay ,🤗🇦🇺
Me Too 🎉😂❤
31:48 the music is hella annoying! had to skip that short cause it was too unbearable to watch
The second story was a RIP off of THE STRANGERS
The strangers is inspired by an unsolved true crime story so everything is a rip off then. U can't make NEW it isn't possible everything has been written already.
Why? Because there were 3 killers? Other than that there are no similarities
Coil and Insecticide were the two worst of the series of films. A Doll Distorted was over the top!!!
