What I like about Anna's weekly therapy videos is that instead of just explaining, she also provides actual steps we can act on to improve our mental health. I'm truly grateful for that.

I know she isn't a doctor, so I recommended Healthy Gamer, too. But, at the same time? This. Feels better than the Piles of homework and worksheets I got after I came out of Crisis Stablization lol

Like. People wonder why folks aren't turning to professionals for help, and going to KZreadrs. Because. Well. So maybe professionals probably haven't taken them seriously

I love your new hair, Anna. I really needed to hear this advice today, and I'm aiming to think more positively. We're so used to thinking negatively, but we're capable of more than we know.

Lmao I have used the "poverty is in my bloodline" before 😅🤣 Didn’t know it was a self sabotage so thanks for the advice

I’m so grateful for your commitment to learning how we work and making the ideas accessible to everyone. Keep up the hard work!

Whoever's reading this, i pray that whatever you're going through gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day! Amen

I've suffered from PTSD due to childhood trauma, anxiety, and depression... but therapy really helped and I'm entering what I call my "Season of Joy". I am looking forward to the opportunities and possibilities that the future holds. Remember that you are worthy of love and happiness. Healing is not linear. And that you can do this!

It's important to note that while this kind of thinking definitely affects your behavior and how you interact with the world, that does not mean that these thoughts fundamentally affect the reality of the challenges we face. Positive thinking isn't going to solve climate change, or wealth inequality. I only point this out because a lot of people, upon learning how powerful thinking is, apply the concept incorrectly and do what some call 'spiritual bypassing', a process in which someone avoids confronting an existing problem by trying to think it out of existence.

For months, I've been trying to prepare for a YCS (Yu-Gi-Oh Championship Series tournament) back in my home state, which I haven't been back to in 2 years. But I kept self-sabotaging my training because of overconfidence and, subconsciously, feeling like I didn't deserve to, and couldn't, travel there and win. Because it would be a massive change to my status quo, and part of me isn't ready for that change, I think. My point's that this was a pretty timely reminder that there's some stuff in our heads that needs addressing, and thanks. And your hair looks good.

This is great! Celebrities you often hear were convinced they would make it big, and they worked til they did. Not that everyone can be a celeb, but we could all take a page out of their book regarding tenacity.

This is the therapy in-between my therapy sessions that I need. Thanks Anna and the new hair is 🔥🔥🔥!

I spent the last 3.5 years of my life drowning my own demons in a more positive outlook in life, basically following these steps, though taking the time to observe sunrise and sunsets. It's been a long hard road, but I started to see results after about 18 months. The self assurances got easier, I was able to believe what I was saying just that little bit easier, I was reviewed with kindness and positivity at work. I started to see real life changes in my workplace, and my interactions with friends. but enough about me, I love the new hairdo. Thank you for all your helpful videos. I've been able to put names to my issues because of your hard work. I've been able to properly explain my neuroses to my friends, thanks to your wonderful videos. Thank you Anna.

I definitely agree in having a positive attitude. I just hope that someone who watches this realizes that we live in a world and communities and families that actively go against these ideas. That is to say, the onus in not just on the individual to “improve” but really we should be demanding more of our community and governments .

How did I see this right on time??? I was crying my eyes out just a minute ago and now I feel really comforted. Thank you ❤️

In the Ancient Mediterranean, people called this Fate and wrote sad plays about it.

This is so difficult because I feel like my self esteem can't possibly be any lower and I've let it ruin good things in my life over and over. I'm sick of the negative self talk. It's all I've known to the point the concept of self love seems ridiculous to me.

your brain is a muscle just like you have to go to the gym to strengthen your muscles and train them to be healthier, you have to retrain your brain but i can promise you it will not happen in a day, be kind to yourself lovelies and do NOT give up on yourself you are STRONG

Great to see you Miss Akana!!

I needed this in a big fat way! Thank you, Anna!

Thank you, Anna 🥰

This is huge. Epic post bro

This was exactly what I needed to hear today.

this is really what i needed to hear today

thank you anna! this is exactly what i was needing to hear right now!

Wow thanks for this! I needed this especially going through midterms and not doing the best my self esteem has taken a huge nose dive!

Thank you for your videos, I really appreciate your content! :) this hair color looks really gorgeous on you as well!

Beautiful editing

anna needed this so much today, havent had the best day

I needed to hear this today to divert a spiral i was starting to go down. Thanks Anna.

I really needed this today after receiving lots of rejections from my top schools

Self talk is so important, thank you for this reminder to continue to focus on this.

I didn't know this was the thing I needed to hear battling with my inner demons and inner voice, thank you ❤️

wow, this is it, the things I knew deep down but couldnt put words on it. Thank you

I need to watch this 5 times and take notes.. oh my god. this hit me at the right time in my life.

your videos come on my feed every few months and somehow each time it's something that i need at that moment .. idk if the youtube algorithm can read my mind or we are spiritually connected but this was much needed rn

This came just at the right time. Thank you, Anna!

Thanks Ana! This serves as great motivation to continue changing old beliefs and habits!

this is what I've been feeling lately. thank you Anna...like always, you're amazing💕

Your videos are always helpful, but this one has to be the most helpful in a good while. Also, congrats on your new book

One of Anna’s best advice videos

Great stuff, thank you. I needed to hear this today.

I love love love this kind of content. This is exactly what I needed to hear right now and it’s always presented in such a pleasing and professional manner.

These videos are so great!!! Making mental health techniques accessible and digestible for everyone!

Thank you Anna, for breaking it down and adding imagery. You are wonderful.

Exactly what I needed to hear today!! Thanks!

I always like your videos fine but this one really hit on some stuff I’ve been thinking on and dealing with lately. Thanks for putting out what I needed to hear when I needed to hear it

THANK YOU ANNA I LOVE YOU 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️

i had to rewatch the first two minutes cause i was too busy swooning over your hair. it's gorgeous!! wonderful advice, as always. x

Thanks for sharing the word was so worth it and it's well packaged breaking stereotypes and setting people free.

Enjoying how short n concise these videos are.

anna that hair colour looks amazing on you!

You’re the friend I always wanted!❤

Know your limits, and work around them. Thanks for the reminder, Anna!

This was perfect timing. I've been wondering what has been holding me back from achieving my fitness goals and self sabotaging. The helplessness area really fits.

Well done! Thank you!

Wow i need to hear this - the timing is exactly right

Oh My! Anna, you're my so wonderful Thank you for making such valuable content

A good way of putting it. I like this. I feel like you aren't overselling yourself.

I love when you break down reality. Feel like I’ve been in a liminal space for so long

LOVE THE NEW HAIR COLOUR

This was fantastic! I've let limiting stories like this hold me back for decades. Learning to let go is a long process but so worth it.

Positive mind sets really do win. I am mostly a very positive person with big dreams. But when I get into my negative thinking it suddenly makes everything that normally works well for me stop going well... so I kick the negative thoughts out and change that. It's best not to let them in for too long!

This is great! I’ve lately been practicing reprogramming my past habits and ways of thinking that isn’t beneficial to my growth and manifestation! This vid coming out only reassures me more to keep up with the practices! Thank you for all the information and reassurance!

Really Really love this!

thank you anna for the free therapy I needed this, dunno when I started having hopelessness and helplessness but this made me understand myself and what’s been happening to me and why I’ve started having zero initiative on things I used to be motivated to before. thank you so much

Anna makes our days better

I'm so lucky that I subscribed to ana. love you babe ❤️

This is nice, I will say though a larger part of the struggle is in addition to these thought paths, I also struggle with lacking dreams and direction for them in general

I'm feeling all 3 lately. I really enjoy these short therapy sessions.

I really should start practicing this, by telling myself positive stuff out loud while looking in the mirror like once or twice a day. Thanks Anna, for the extra push as always!

Seriously, those 3 things are exactly who I am. I need to start thinking more positive. Thank you much anna!

Excellent topic, well spoken from a lovely woman. Thanks Anna, your vids are super motivating for me

Your videos are so beautiful and such efforts have been put to aesthetics, but that’s just Cherry The Cake is Your Content ❤❤❤

Definitely fall into the worthlessness category, and in the past I did rely a lot on self-deprecating vs self-appreciating, particularly for humour sake. But I'm slowly starting to pivot away from that into a more positive mindset, granted, it's taking years and lots of therapy, and I still have a long way to go. But it's really worth it

I never comment but Anna your hair looks so fire

The colors of your videos are really pretty 😊. I think I struggle with "helplessness" the most, I sometimes believe that there is a wall preventing me from connecting with others, or that I don't have the "vitality/motivation" everyone else seems to have and that it is why I can't achieve a lot of things.

I need to rewatch this every month

Wow. I'm actually dazzled by the hair color. I had to comment just to really hear the contents which is good. Thanks.

Thank you for making your videos ❤

Love the groovy font!

Thank you once again, these videos are very helpful 👍🏾

Keep up the awesome content

oh my god Anna you came out swinging with the hard hitting good advice this time, holy crap

Forever bringing me what I need when I need it 🙏🔥💖✨

This couldn't have come at a better time for me

Great stuff, thank you.

I really like your videos! I just wanted to mention that saying “stop” out loud to repetitive thoughts is actually counterproductive. It’s an old belief that it would help prevent unwanted thoughts, but it actually increases them (there’s been a lot of studies on this for OCD). It’s more effective to acknowledge the thought and accept that you have this thought and recognize that it’s not true.

Loving the new hair

Awesome job anna

Love the vid and the new hair 💙

It's kind of crazy how often I start crying during Anna's videos that go deep to self-belief issues

Love the hair ❤

Thank you! Period ❤

I needed this so much, thank you.

Amazing !!

For some people changing their own thoughts about the self is enough. For others, getting into how they started those thoughts works for them. And some need an outlet to practice thoughts into action during their work towards changing thoughts. I like Anna.
