Sarai Nairobi yeah 😂me my husband looks at me and laughs so you can imagine when I miss out of videos and o say it to every single one 😂

Really please that Tom was there to reassure you, he is a lovely and caring man x

I wonder if maybe the video got demonetized by putting the movie/book name in the title because the production company/book publisher owns all the rights to the title/story and wouldn’t want someone else to make money using their copyrighted content? just an idea

Amy you are literally the strongest woman ever. You will get conquer the OCD. Don’t give up.

I have OCD too, and I’m so happy that someone has opened up about it. I know it is a very hard thing to talk about since it can seem silly to some people. To everyone that has it too, you’re not alone.

Alice Jarosch Either a psychiatrist or psychologist can diagnose ocd and anxiety. They can make recommendations on treating it as well. If you have chronic illness, I would recommend finding someone who is familiar with the issues chronic illness can contribute to.

@@yogabirds Thanks, I got the diagnosis some years ago and got a new therapist but she didn't realize anything, so I'm on search again. Chronic illness specialist is hard to find, I've been searching for a long time now and didn't find that much but I'll never give up.

Alice Jarosch Ask one of your doctors if they could recommend anyone or if you have a cancer treatment center at the hospital you use or by you, call them and ask who they would recommend. You can also try the psychiatry department at the hospital you use. If you go to a pain clinic, you could also ask them. I know it can be hard to find a good therapist. I had an awful time at first. The one I found is worth her weight in gold a hundred times over again.

I get the being anxious about the lights thing. I have terrible anxiety and thoughts like that are extremely common. I get thought like that when I’m following my dad or my sister and I lose sight of them. I just think I’m going to catch up and find them in a terrible crash. After you feel so dumb for believing that would happen, but you just can’t stop yourself from feeling/thinking that way.

Amy that OCD feel is soooooo real. You definitely aren’t the only one who has feelings like that but it’s so nice to see that there are people out there that are in the same situations I’m in. There was one day a week ago where I hadn’t been home like all day and my brain convinced me that because I hadn’t been home all day my house had burned down. There was no reason for me to think it but my OCD made me believe it anyway. It’s a terrifying situation to be in :(

Mia S. You aren’t alone ❤️

I can totally relate to you about the OCD. I’ve had full on breakdowns in public places and the stares I get really chip away at me sometimes. You’re so brave for sharing this on such a public platform! Just know that there are lots of lovely treatments and people that help a bunch!

Tom seems really great, which makes me sure he's hiding a terrible fault. Seriously though, my wife puts up with so much for me and it's nice to know they're are other spouses/significant others who are so understanding.

I am so happy you opened up about your mental health. I strongly agree that its time to see the doctor and there is nothing to be ashamed of.

You are so strong Amy and I appreciate that you opened up about OCD to us. I recently had a major panic attack while driving and probably was the scariest thing! But you are not alone in this!!! Keep strong and keep calm💪🏼💪🏼

My OCD used to be as bad as yours. It was a bit different, I was always afraid my Mom was going to die. Thankfully it slowly went away with therapy and medication. Just keep in mind you won't always feel those terrifying feelings.

Amy, I live soo far from you (in Ukraine) and I love your channel so much! I like this one (with vlogs) even more because it shows more of real life & more of real you. You are such a motivation!! About OCD - I had some really harsh obsessive thoughts after a very traumatic breakup. Those thoughts even didn't let me sleep, I was thinking about death all the time. A therapist helped me and I still have it sometimes, but my situation has changed for better! Thanks for your opening up, it's important for us!!! Everyone is fighting his own battle, but you are fighting so many of battles and you still stay cool and positive. I admire you!

It nice to see you have Tom be there for you. I feel that mental health has a huge stigma behind it. I also have OCD. Id love to see you do a fashion or make up tutorial.

congratulations on your KZread accomplishment! You truly are an inspiration! Kudos to you for sharing your life (good times and bad) and just being real! Love both of your channels! ❤❤

I love you to the moon and back and you don’t know how much it means to me that you open up about your OCD, I have OCD really bad just have been put on a new medication and I’m hoping it helps me. I’m getting ready to have surgery in March. I just want you to know how much you inspire and help me. God Bless You and love, hugs and prayers to you♥️🥰‼️

Amy have you looked into curocaps for your line? I wasn’t offered them last time I had tpn but have them now and they are brilliant ! They have alcohol in the tip and it screws on to cover the end of the line to add a extra measure to protecting the tip from bacteria. Highly recommend if you can get hold of them . Glad to see you doing so well I have just started the weight gaining and feeling much better already. Congratulations on the play button. Xx

I'm glad to hear you are enjoying your book. I have seen the previews for the movie and just LOVE it! I usually like to read a book before watching the movie, but I don't know if i will have an opportunity this time around. So sorry to hear about your OCD/panic attack you experienced. I'm so glad I don't suffer from these. Bless your heart, I hope your therapist can help you with it and improve things for you. Congratulations on your KZread play button too!! It is beautiful and so shiny!!!

Thank you for having the courage to shed light on your experiences with OCD. So many suffer in silence and never get the support they need. Very happy and relieved to hear you are speaking with a mental health professional. I am a therapist here in the states. OCD can be debilitating - the treatment can feel counterintuitive but with support, courage and hard work you can manage this and lead a beautiful life! I am sure you are getting the best treatment but just in case others don’t know what to look for if they are struggling with OCD - the gold standard for treatment is ERP (Exposure Response Prevention) and CBT (Cognitive Behavioal Therapy). Look for a mental health professional that specializes in these two areas. In my humble opinion every person on this planet could use instruction in CBT! It is a joy to see the wonderful support Tom is to you and you to him. Be well.

Over Christmas I finally had to go see the doctor and I was diagnosed with illness anxiety disorder. My thoughts were so out of control I could not function, and it took some courage and not wanting to sound “crazy” but I am so glad I finally sought out help. I am happy you have the courage to see your doctor I promise it will help!

I have OCD also. Mine gets pretty bad sometimes which results in meltdowns. If it's something you feel like opening up about, you would receive support here.🙂💜

The irrational thoughts that seem & feel so real are so scary!! I have Severe anxiety panic disorder, SPD & OCD tendencies I have fought for over 20 years now. I have NOBODY in my life that understands, so most of the time I hide it, and deal with it completely alone. Its NOT easy at all.... I am happy in life, but when things go south, knowing Im alone sucks.

You are such a great youtuber I love you so much!!🌹🌹💜💜 Have hope💜💜 I wish you all the good things in the world!!💜💜

I have OCD as well. Mayb not as bad as other ppl but my OCD causes me to struggle being away from my kids. I have a 4 year old, 2 year old, and 5 month old. My older 2 rarely go stay the night with their grandparents but when they do I literally live in panic until I get them back. I constantly think something bad will happen because I'm not there and no one understands it. I'm always told to stop worrying and stop overreacting and it just sucks that no one understands that these thoughts and worries are out of my control. It's such a scary feeling and I hate when my brain makes me think bad things will happen to my babies when I'm not with them 😥

Congratulations Amy!

Amy I am so sorry that the OCD causes you to go into a panic attack. I have so much trouble with panic attacks. I have learned how to manage them. It's not easy. Please see you dr and be honest with them about needing something for the anxiety and panic attacks. Glad that Tom understands and helps you get through the anxiety. I like how he makes you laugh and feel better.

Your just so brave about everything you deal with on a daily.. God bless you... Thank you for sharing and allowing us to be a part of your journey threw life..

Awe😍 u r so sweet! Very brave to put everything out there. I've thought of making a channel about my chronic illness and try to make ppl more aware ..but..idk...it's scary...again.. thank you for your channel...gives me hope 😘

Love you too!🤗🙌🏼

Oh and you are not alone chick. I have severe anxiety and one time I could not find my boyfriend in the store and all of a sudden I just had this thought that he had been kidnapped. It was so real to me and I was panicking in the store. After I felt so silly and embarrassed about it. That is just one example of mine but I just wanted you to know it's okay I get like that too.

You’re amazing, love from the US

Congratulations!

YAY for the play button!! Next 100,000 on this Chanel!

Amy I welled up when you said about your grandparents in the uk. I really hope you get to see them, losing a loved one so close you is so hard. I lost my nanan back in August last year 💔💔 not a day goes by when I don’t miss her.

Congrats on the play button!

Tom is right about going to the doctor's about this. Some medications can cause side effects like this panic episode, and since you have EDS, you may be having a reaction to a medication that isn't necessarily listed as "common" since EDS patients aren't "common". I just came off of a tri-cyclic anti-depressant for my gastroparesis because it was causing problems with my bladder, and it isn't a listed side effect, but it is an off-label usage to use this drug to help children that wet the bed to make it through the night without urinating. Apparently in me, it causes an inability to urinate. It's always best to see a doctor for anything unusual when you're on long-term medications.

you're so strong, Amy. Mental illness is hard to deal with in the moment but you don't have to get upset about it, just remember its all just chemicals :) x

Amy I too have OCD to and i have moments like that all the time. Im currently un medicated and it makes my anxiety even worse.

Amy you have a lot of accomplishments for you being sick but you push pass that and for that I admire you thanks for sharing your sickness I learning a lot from you Amy.

Sending love...I to have OCD and ‘Catastrophise’ things. It is horrible and so hard for others to understand. I also have chronic health problems and can relate to so much of what you say. X

Thanks for the book suggestions! I 💗reading! OCD and anxiety often go hand in hand with MCAS and my heart aches for you hon. I’ve been there and know how awful it is! Mast cells secrete over 200 mediators. In normal amounts, they keep the body running smoothly. In abnormal amounts, they cause MCAS an a whole slew of other problems 🤮. I’ve read about a few patients diagnosed with schizophrenia and MCAS who have seen an almost complete resolve of the schizophrenia after being put on a low histamine diet and meds for MCAS. Certain foods, medications, and environmental stressors can all trigger attacks. If you are comfortable emailing me a list of your meds, I can see if you are on any that might be making things worse. I know that there is a lot of stigma around mental illness, but I recommend everyone with MCAS find a psychotherapist skilled in helping patients with chronic illness. Strong emotions and the day to day stress and frustrations brought on by MCAS can trigger mast cell episodes and I feel seeing a therapist to help with that side of things is every bit as important in our treatments as Benadryl and epi. In the meantime, when anxiety starts to set in, stop what you are doing and take a few deep breaths and keep telling yourself “ I’m okay. I’m okay. I’m okay.” At the same time you do that, cross your arms over your chest and hold onto both arms where a blood pressure cuff would go. Alternate squeezing each arm tight with every “I’m okay.” You say. Do this until the anxiety passes. KZread has a bunch of guided meditations for pain and stress. Find a few you really like and try to do a minimum of one per day. This too will help decrease anxiety and stress. Hugs my friend!

Congrats on your KZread Play Button 😊💐 I Love You Soo Much Gorgeous!! 💖

Amy your so amazing. I love watching your videos.. you show people one minute you can feel good and next you feel sick. I have high sugar levels but you give me faith not to give up . I also got other health issues. Wish I could just message ya sometime but I know your busy I love you Amy

I went through a spell of thinking that way, but I think just time and realising nothing happened each time I imagined the worst, I just let it go. It soon stopped. Nothing happened to Tom Amy, in my opinion it’s more to do with depression, which I’ve had for over a decade, and constant negative thoughts. Sending you a 🤗 😀

I always end up having to buy a longer charging cord cause the cords that Samsung phones always come with are to short.

Hmmm Can't wait to get my things that make you go Hmmm Merch!!! Congratulations on your 100,000 subscribers on your main channel, your almost at 140,000...

It's sad how she talks about not wanting to lose her grandparents before she gets a chance to go back to England to see them again. Little did we know it would be the other way around 😥

Amy you are stronger than you think, but sometimes we all fell down and need someone to help us. Please look for attention to your sicological situation! Have an awesome day and smile to the world! :D

This has been happening to me all week. I had to phone my mom bc I just like felt like my brother was dead. And last night I stayed up super late bc my service dog ate her food too fast and wasn't feeling well but I was convinced that if I didnt sit with her she would die if I went to bed. I slept with her all night.. Long and short. I get you girl

I think I will have to start reading five feet apart now. Oh Amy it’s ok to open up about OCD because it can be so scary and I totally understand. Love you Amy and think your amazing. Congratulations on getting your play button.🙂

I am so sorry you had you had that scary experience. You are Tom are made to be together. I have depression at the moment. I hope you can find a really good therapist to help you through OCD. As a kid I used to feel I had to do certain things when my mum was out or else my mum would not come home

Things that make me go "mmmh?" Is the fact that Amy continually flicks her hair/swipes her nose/fiddles with earring/a sign of OCD or is it myself who has OCD so therefore these things irritate me?

I had a bad experience with the upper scope as it turns out sedation doesn't tend to work on me. The lower scope wasn't scary. When I needed an upper one again, I explained my concerns thoroughly to my gastro so she scheduled me last so there was no rush if I needed pauses or more drugs and she put together a combination of different sedatives at higher dose as well as extra local anesthetic and I was so relaxed and happy and it went soooo easily and completely got rid of my fears of getting a scope! ☺ Most of the others in the unit with me it with no sedation and it went fine for all the others in my day ward. So it should be OK! If not, there are ways to make it easier. Best of luck ❤

is using catheters hard? is it scary does it hurt? also do you still get urges to pee or do you just routinely have to do it anyway? x

having that much stuff on you car keys is really bad for the ignition. i had half the amount on mine and had to have the entire ignition replaced because the key was pulling on it. you really should only have just the car key in the ignition.

Do you need to do the colonoscopy prep if you don't eat? I guess you would sinceyour body still makes waste. Do often do you have a bm on TPN?

I don’t know why but it didn’t even click with me that if you cannot use your bowels that you wouldn’t be able to urinate yourself. I don’t mean to pry but which medical condition has caused this? It must be a struggle and having had to use a Cath before I know they can be painful

I'm going to my stepmoms tomorrow... I'm scared that he's leaving for good and hates me and takes our son away and they die... The whole 9! Anyways.... You always say you're not alone....
