    Hey Dr. Dray! Something I really like about your videos and channel in general is your informational, no nonsense approach. As a long time viewer, I prefer the talking head style lectures you give. I find the new editing style and quick cuts to be distracting from all the great things you have to share.

    • @KnittyMatcha

    agreeing with the many people who miss your usual way of making content, i love to see you speak move your hands, face expression, one camera angle, is very honest and makes it easy to follow. With this editing i go into fight or flight , and that yes that my cortisol will spike 🤪

    Fun story - your cortisol levels are directly tied to your circadian rhythm. I once was starting to have problems sleeping with my job that had no windows/only fluorescent lighting (problem #1 for sleeping). L-Theanine is known that it may help reduce cortisol levels so I decided to try and see if it would help reduce my stress at work. Problem is - your cortisol is supposed to be at its highest mid-morning and I was taking l-theanine right as I would get to work at 8am. It REALLY screwed up my sleep schedule - like by Weds night I wouldn't sleep at all til the weekend. Luckily I am able to get outside more now and use red light and infrared sauna for better sleep.

    • @DianneElizabeth64
      @DianneElizabeth64 Před 22 dny

  • @iwantascreenameplz
    @iwantascreenameplz Před 3 měsíci +57

    Honestly, this feedback is PERFECT for neurodivergent people. Especially us autistics tend to think in super binary all-or-nothing ways, where we HAVE to do things perfectly or it's incredibly stressful (to be fair this is also common in ADHD with perfectionist tendencies), so reminding us that baby-steps and minor changes are just as valid, and often more long-term, than just jumping into an entire lifestyle overhaul. Saving this video under Favorites to rewatch later. ❤

  • @rachg82
    @rachg82 Před 3 měsíci +5

    Really wonderful advice here. It's honestly a breath of fresh air - the focus on adding things to your diet rather than just taking food away, the cautioning against extremes, the parts about doing what you can to increase movement and stick to a schedule for going to bed & getting out of bed rather than stressing over achieving a specific number of steps/hours of sleep, and so on. Very reassuring and refreshing.

  • @Wishesfeb29
    @Wishesfeb29 Před 2 měsíci +1

    I enjoy your videos so much Dr. Dray. You are a delightful and refreshingly down-to-earth person. I'm 61, live in Tulsa, and come from a family of physicians (father was an endocrinologist). I appreciate good medicine. Thank you for acknowledging those of us who get stressed out over trying to meet "standards" for sleep and other health metrics. Prior to getting a Fitbit, I always felt pretty good about my fitness. I'm very active every day, enjoy gardening & dog training among a variety of many diverse activities. Once I got my fitbit I became worried about my step count. I started giving up activities I love in order to walk and get my step count up. I was forcing myself to get 10k steps per day but wasn't enjoying it. I felt guilty if I missed a day. It took me some time to chill out again and realize that as long as I was moving my body- using muscles and enjoying myself- I was doing great! Your advice about doing a little extra here and there actually got my step count up quite a bit... now I will break into a quick sprint with my dogs in the yard or run up and down the stairs a few times. BTW, in another vlog you were talking about not being ready to purchase a printer. I was in the same boat. I finally bought a very small, basic black and white laser printer at Best Buy for $75. It is soooo fast and simple, with excellent print quality. I've had it for 3 years and the laser cartridge it came with is good for 2,000 + pages. Takes up very little space and no ink to mess with. If I want color, I go to a print shop. Take care and stay cool.

    As a coffee-lover, it was hard to reduce consumption, but noticed dropping to one cup a day and no caffeine after 11 helped with energy and sleep. The basics always work, good nutrition, proper hydration, take a walk and stick to a bed time schedule. I also reduced screen time (especially the news) at night.

  • @ruthloke
    @ruthloke Před 2 měsíci +3

    I'm one of those who used to track my sleep daily, it turned out counter-productive because I became hyper-fixated on it. My whole life became about metrics, closing my rings, getting my 8 hours. Something that was supposed to bring health became a major stressor in my life.. these days, I get 5 hours some days, 6 on some, 8 on good days, and I am happier just letting it be. ..

    Dr. Dray! Love your videos and this is a topic I wanted to hear more about. I did find the editing and visuals on the first third of this video a bit overwhelming and distracting. The stock videos are fine, though you can use them more sparsely (that way you don't need to find as many!) The motions and animations can definitely be dialed back a bit. Don't get me wrong - I appreciate whenever people put effort into the stylistic aspect of their work, and it's awesome to see you experiment and get better as a content creator, so I thought viewers' feedback can be helpful for that!
    I understand from your point of view, just footage of you talking might seem dry and uninteresting, but I promise you your channel and videos are adored for their no nonsense, unfiltered nature :) Many of us are here to learn, and we don't mind a simple podcast-style lecture - plus, less work for you on the editing!

It takes a combination of jealousy and distain to be a hater as well and there's no evidence of that in the comment section!
      But I will say this, this is just one more reason why non-brown and non-beige people need to stop trying to use African-American vernacular English (AAVE). Because they will almost always either incorrectly use the word, overuse the word or BOTH. So please "Brad" just give it a rest!

      @@moonstrukk126 are you kidding? why do you consider this ‘ungrateful’? adequate critique is a growth factor for any person and there is nothing wrong about it. If you think the other way that I have bad news for you.
      and the thing is, in newer videos the editing returned to normal, so she is really in touch with her audience and I really appreciate it

    I've read that chamomile tea helps reduce cortisol, seems a harmless option to try as long as you don't have ragweed allergies.

    Idk if you want feedback, but I think the editing is jarring because there’s sooo many cuts and there doesn’t seem to be a cohesive style between the images, texts, and clips. I think scaling back on some of the effects might also help. I found this hard to watch even though I love your content ❤
    Editing is hard though and it’s always great to evolve and try something different. I think this style is prob more suited to short form content but that’s just my two cents!

    How many ounces is that one drink? That’s very important information. Great timing! I start a new job tomorrow.

      Depends on the type of alcohol. The national institute on alcohol abuse and alcoholism, has a list of standard drink sizes.

    @drdray I'm always curious when these conversations come up, do they still apply to people with ADHD in the same way? I don't find caffeine stimulating, i don't even find my prescription stimulants stimulating 😂 i can and have fall back asleep not long after taking them and drinking a bucket of caffeine. I also frequently find that the longer i let myself sleep (constantly tired and can sleep for 10-15 hours at the weekend without even waking up to go to the toilet) but i usually feel terrible after. When i only sleep 4 hours which often is the case during the week, i initially feel terrible when i wake up but then seem to be more alert during the day? Its confusing. I know not having a regular pattern is bad but i can't seem to implement one at all, my body clock always seems to be all over the place. I have read that ADHD affects sleep and also causes you to be more drawn to stimulant's (caffeine, nicotine etc) because they work differently for us than most people and I'm never sure if that means traditional advice will be as beneficial 🤷🏼‍♀️

    Happy Monday! I hate to join those that don't like this style of video but I am. You are wonderful and give your channel personality. That AI generated stuff, doesn't. I had my adrenal glands shut down when I got a hysterectomy. I was on cortisone for 8 years before my endocrinologist weaned me off successfully. That was not fun. Have a great day!

    Thank you for the informative (and timely, for me) content. I started tamoxifen in April and lasted about 3 weeks before it completely destroyed my sanity: constant hot flashes, night sweats and sleeplessness. Before this I could sleep a solid 7 hours. I always prioritized sleep because of a maternal history of Alzheimer's, so I know the importance of it. But I'm 51 and have to take tamoxifen (and later aromatase inhibitors) for the next 5 years and I don't know what to do because the pills are destroying me -- I could only sleep about 2 hours at a time, constantly waking up and taking forever to go to sleep again. I've tried melatonin and natural herbal pills but nothing works. I know I should give the pill a few months to get used to, but those 3 weeks of insomnia were brutal and I worried about my brain health. :(

    The editing, the stock images and video, is very, very irritating. I tend to not watch channels with all that fake imagery.

    Very helpful information. Regarding the video itself, I like having some of the added visuals (like lists) but not so many unnecessary photos of random people. Like all of life, balance is important. 😊
