This hits hard. My mom used to get mad at me because I was a regular hyper child. And my mom always used to say when I was young, just you wait when you get older you'll be sick. She spoke that so many times over me. And I promised myself I would never be like her. Brain tumors and brain surgeries at 26 result in two incurable chronic pain conditions. What parents speak over their children directly affects them. Life and death are in the tongue. #crps #atypicaltrigeminalneuralgia

That is so cruel. I had a personality clash with my Mum too and it does no end of damage. I am stuck in that emotional trauma. Do you think it could be something like envy of your youthful joy? In my case, I think it was seeing that some of my weaknesses were the same as hers, but she was hiding them. I also had more flaws than she had and she used to say I took after her Mother and my Father. Both were insults. She never said I took after her.

I pretended , when I was in a mid life crisis around 45, what it would be like if I died. Came to the conclusion that people simply don't give it much thought and then I turned from prioritizing WORK to prioritizing ME and my love for travel and learning. It has almost been 10 years now and I am so happy! When I left everyone was an adult and my ex-wife had a great job and I made and read her a note compassionately and in tears. I still loved her but I needed more as time waits for no one! This action has both pros and cons. The main pros were I didn't kill myself or die from stress. The cons and pro are learning about yourself deeply and it can only be lonely if you dont like yourself. Peace777

@improvemyself256 thx. Yeah, yeah, I wrote my book for exactly that, showing people that there is hope!

This video is true. I spent my life being the person needed in the moment due to a traumatic life with a particularly traumatic childhood. By the time I was 50 I knew I was going to die at 57. If I kept going on as I was. All the adaptations I created to survive my trauma, abuse and neglect were failing. All the trauma affects and inability to connect was hitting me hard. I got to the point that either I had to do something now or I was soon to die. I chose life. My life. Me. I got into trauma therapy and I'm foster parenting myself trying to overcome the toxic parenting and toxic family of my childhood. It's not easy. The stress from facing these demons has nearly killed me multiple times. I don't know if I will have a happy life at any point but what I've done to change things has been more than worth all the effort.

Wow. Everyones responses has hit home but yours, especially, as I could have written much of it, myself. Trauma throughout life, but definitely a difficult childhood filled with all the fear, uncertainty, and often outright terror of domestic violence, of a father who didn't know any better and passed down the cruelty he grew up with. At the age of 10 I witnessed his suicide, which, understandably, changed my mother, but it felt like I lost her that day, too. Her way of handling the situation was to box it up, put it in a dark closet, close the door, and move on with her life. Unfortunately, that left me in a pretty precarious position, for a variety of reasons. Additionally, but much like someone said above, mom would often say how much I was just like my dad, and that I was too emotional. "You are just like your dad," and "you are too emotional" are phrases seared into my soul. In other words, I was bad and shouldn't have feelings. Of course she did the best she could, there is no blame, it was horrific, what happened. But where do these types of circumstances leave as adults after a lifetime of carrying such burdens, not only our own pain but that of those around us? I am trying to choose life, as well, thought I had a great therapist, then found out he had behaved inappropriately with a friend, which now leaves me wondering what , if anything, was real. Health wise, it is much like many have written, here, issues that increasingly seem to be an outcome of a lifetime of suppressed emotions. Thank you to everyone who responded to this video for helping me to know I am not alone, despite how lonely life feels. Its difficult to make human connections later in life, especially when the ability to do so has been so tragically compromised over the years. (decades, for some of us) Love and light to one and all. May there be hope, resolution and peace for each of us. Again...thank you. May all who read this find their own healing path.

Wow this is powerful Dr Gabor… I have believed this theory for a long time .. that pretending to be okay when you’re really struggling mentally and emotionally is bad for your health and could lead to burnouts and poor physical health in the long run.. being a volunteer with the Samaritans listening to people who have terrible mental health problems and trauma from childhood .. when they open up and say they have been bottling it up for ages, they feel so much better. I thank them for their call and tell them how strong they are opening up. I have had childhood trauma myself but for some reason I have never pretended that I’m okay and when I have struggled always always sort help .. the only time I didn’t was when I was a kid and a teenager but I didn’t know anything different then I just suffered in silence.. thank god as a adult I have learnt to express and be open and I thinks it a tonic for preserving good mental health. Thanks for all what you do. ❤

my goodness me .... i was a student of jacky's mother who taught me the piano for years and jacky was a huge influence on my studying of the 'cello, precisely because of her passion and ability to communicate. i was there when she was diagnosed with MS and the total nonsensical experience that it was ... to listen to this explanation leaves me speechless ... as a family they seemed to be eccentric (hilary in particular) but one that contained a lot of love ... including her grandmother who was the sweetest of people. the combination of the wisdom and understanding from dr gabor and also the fact that my music was something that i did, largely to get recognition from my own mother, has left me needing to process this. how very sad.

What a tender, insightful observation. People love my two brothers and my mother. And they are wonderful people. But family dynamics can be entirely different from what others see. Very sad, indeed. I certainly understand your need to process, and my heart goes out to you for the significant paradigm shift this must have caused you, all that you had believed,and thought to be true about the situation for so long. What courage you have to acknowledge the new information, however painful.

I need help NOW. I’m still alive. And to my knowledge the Cancer hasn’t started yet. I NEED someone to STOP the people who are HURTING ME. LIKE NOW. and I don’t even know who to ask for help…. My soul is SCREAMING for people to help. To help with what is ACTUALLY WRONG.

What a touching (& slightly creepy) story ❤🥹

I think it’s harder to be yourself as you get older. Maybe it’s because we come to recognize what is and isn’t “acceptable” behavior for whatever situation we’re in. As a kid you don’t think about that at all. Example: If say no to something I feel obligated to give a reason that would be acceptable. As opposed to saying no simply because you don’t want to.

I will keep clapping for others until its my turn 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Sadly, most of people have wounded inner children in them include our parents. We all have adult body but crying baby in us. I had ignored my cry baby in me. One day, I asked to her what she wants. She told me what she wants from me. As long as we pay attention to our inner child, she would not cry. Be your inner child's mom who gives unconditional love and support. She will smile back to you.

I started with family, and some friends... Their reaction was so disgusting My mom with her : what will people say if they learn my daughter is not okay, they will be so happy, because that's what they want to see, and we won't give them this chance... I was like, the most important thing is that i get better... My brother who started to see everything i do, or say is invalid.... Others assuming i'm exagérating before i even talking..., So for me, pretenting to be okay is the only way to come with people préjudices... Cause they probably need u to be gone in a violent way to finaly believe u were really not okay 0:02

The recent death of Matthew Perry drives home Dr. Mate's attachment theory visa-vis addiction, mental illness. In Perry's memoir, he disclosed he was prescribed phenobarbital as a one month old infant to reduce collick. He also describes the sense of detachment he felt from his high profile mother. I think it would be very helpful to hear Dr. Mate's analysis of Perry's unfortunate early demise.

Emotions aren't stressful. Emotions teach you to understand the situation. And what is more important here is acknowledging how you feel. That simply alone is enough. If you want to share it with others is your own decisions. It won't impact your body when you don't. It's you who carry your body, who is your body. Your body gets sick when it also works for you and show you what's not working. So, when you experience pressure or being overwhelmed (stressed), it's a sign for you to rest and slow down. And that you do naturally. By intellectualizing everything what is naturally you just disconnect from your nature and end up, experiencing more stress. All those videos aren't serving others. They only serve those who sell a service and want attention.

I see where you're coming from but I have to disagree on some points. Many people (including myself) were taught that it isn't safe to be yourself or like certain things or express healthy emotions. I grew up in a severely abusive home where I wasn't even allowed to go to the bathroom when I needed to. I was made fun of for things that I loved and was passionate about (music, animals, books, etc). My mother was a sociopath and my father a covert narcissist. This led to me being severely disconnected with myself. For years I wouldn't even allow myself to go to the restroom until I done certain things. It wasn't a conscious decision....I was just programmed this way. I suppose you could compare it to someone who has been kidnapped, brainwashed and develops Stockholm syndrome after. It's taken me many years of therapy and working on myself to even get close to knowing when to rest and slow down. I still have problems with it. I wasn't allowed to rest and relax growing up....not ever. I have complex PTSD. I have to sometimes explain to people that my body reacts to things many times without conscious thoughts behind it. For example, I can hear a noise (doesn't even have to be loud) and my body reacts like it was a gunshot. This happened because in my childhood there was always screaming and violence and there was no safe place to go and no safe person to go to. (And I did try to tell people). So I have to disagree. Emotions can be very stressful if you suppress them. For a long time I couldn't even identify what my emotions were, much less express them. This is something that many people need help with and Dr. Gabor has helped me greatly in this area as he has helped many other survivors of traumatic childhoods and life experiences such as rape

I love the movie Hillary and Jackie.

With all the respect, but in this video I hear the Dr. Speaking with judgemental vibration about the mother because she was not able to deal with grief, (like it was her fault) and because she affected the litle girl by that, and than I hear the same vibration when speaking about the litle girl growing up that she was suppressing emotions, like it was a mistake that she was born of a griefed mother. I think We do not understand everything, because there is a greater intelligence than our mind, orchestrating everything. Maybe her being in born in this circumstance was exactly as it if was supposed to be, it is not a coincidence that that quality of sound and emotion through her music is extraordinary, and maybe the power of her music, which is healing music, is not entertainment, helped heal many people, in ways we do not know. And I do not say that in order to create healing music, art or any other expression, one needs to suffer or to be suppressed or traumatized, but it seems to be the case with most people who expressed or created something powerful in their life, it seems somehow, that it is like sacrificing their life (unconsciously mostly, but sometimes consciously) for turning inwards and connecting with a deeper reality, in order to create that vibrational message, that message, that will never die (Bach, Jesus, etc..) I think this is something to reflect upon, "always trying to heal everything in ourselves, becoming so self centered working towards a moderate happy, comfortable life, or to accept the circumstance that life brings, use that energy to go within, connect with something deeper, and we never know what we find there, maybe there, we find the healing for ourselves, or we discover there something that will come through us and will be delivered to the world in the form of a message or a healing vibration. There is a supreme vibrational field, a greater intelligence than any mind can achieve, some call it God, and some surrender to It's natural Will and Movement, and that is acceptance, and acceptance is the beginning of real peace and real love.

Yeah sure because invalidating a childhood trauma survivor with your spiritual bypassing will make this world better. There is a difference between a mother and a child - a mother is supposedly an adult capable of making choices, whereas a child is completely dependent on her for survival and will do everything to preserve the attachment, even if it means self harm. Trying to justify this with "god mumbo jumbo" only severs to shame the person who experienced it more and blocks them from processing the grief and trauma of finding themselves in such a role to begin with.

Until at least a small part of the human race , begins practicing loving and healthy attachment parenting - with themselves - through learning , therapy and healing / caretaking approaches - this species will not express our heart ♥️ & Soul ! May we ALL begin now , these activities and approaches of recovery as we begin to caringly re- parent ourselves !

So sad. What's important? Being happy, or compensating and being a compensation tool for others? Maybe there should be awards for "who is the most connected to themselves"? I could imagine a skit where the winner goes up to the podium, receives the award, and says "Yes! I win! Take that losers!" LOL

So how do you change? When people rely on you and you change and it turns their lives upside down. I know what I want to do and where I want to be but to do that would completely wreck many more lives than mine. I suppress because I have to. My choice to do so because I love those that my changes would harm. Very simple to say what is wrong with someone’s life but not so simple to alter.

The love we have for others is our real self too. Perhaps even more real than other parts of us. Hopefully we can do both. May god help us find a way to help ourselves together with the ones we love!

Is the running text auto-generated? There are so many ridiculous errors.

Amazing story, I didn't know this. The question that is in my head, is that she knew that she will get MS and die or she attracted MS and death to her life?. If you see the teachings of Joe Dispenza or Neville Goddard we create our own reality!!!

The same with Patricia Janekova ?

Hey wat happen to your original post where dr Gabor mate was talking about Israel and Palestine topic

great excerpt from dr Mate, but I cannot begin to describe---and you comprehend---just how obnoxious the added background music is. Doesn't mean you absolutely have to get rid of it, but maybe try doing some actual sound mixing next time. Good luck.

Sorry about that

Why is the audio so shaky and difficult to hear?

As a classically trained musician I can tell you every serious and professional classical musician has a similar relationship with their parents, and very traumatic childhoods, and yet serious illness and MS are extremely rare. He’s working hard to tell a story. Have you ever seen footage of Jackie? She was full of life, expressive and playful and appeared to have a great relationship with Barenbaum. I don’t know who he’s describing- but certainly not her. The body-mind connection isn’t as simple as psychology ruling the body. It is more of a feedback loop between the two with a much greater influence on the mind by the body than the other way round. It is much more complicated than the story he is spinning.

Yeah. I have never even heard of Jackie Du Pre' But rape and MS don't sound like something a person brings on through emotional suppression. Look at Michael J. Fox. He's come forward and thinks things he did and things he was exposed to (chemicals) probably contributed to to his plight, and that underlying genetic dispositions were also at play. I agree it is much more complicated than what this video is stating. And yes, I have a complicated broken medical feedback mechanism at play for over 55 years, and old age isn't making it better.

You say, "As a classically trained musician I can tell you every serious and professional classical musician has a similar relationship with their parents, and very traumatic childhoods,..." May I ask, how can you proclaim that EVERY musician... (as you say it) has this? First, you can't possibly know that. Second, it's impossible. Would you kindly explain your comment? I am assuming you knew Jackie and that as a professional yourself you have insight most of us do not. Thanks.

​@@kristineanderson4983 I can very comfortably say EVERY SERIOUS classical musician because it simply isn’t natural or normal for a young child to practice 4, 6 or even 8-12 hours a day. NO child would or could do that simply “for the love of music.” That ONLY happens with IMMENSE pressure in the home and studio (the teacher). It simply isn’t possible to get to the top without this level of pressure or investment from an early age. It doesn’t happen otherwise. Period. You can’t even get or keep a good teacher without this commitment and pressure- that’s right. You don’t just hire any teacher- you have to audition and could very easily get rejected. I’ve also seen kids get “fired” by their teacher for not performing or learning at a high enough level. Musicians talk openly about how the relationship with the teacher is similar to the parent - about the pressure and desire to please. It's essentially a CPTSD relationship and I've known and work with several that have a reputation for regularly bringing their students to tears. I don’t know what you want from me to understand. To explain how the nickname for Juilliard undergraduate program was “sin city,” when I was there, because EVERY student there came from an overbearing household- and now no longer under their parent’s thumbs they go crazy? Do you really want me to go into ALL the ugly stories of everyone I met at Juilliard and multiple other conservatories and music festivals and gigs? How uncomfortable it was for me to sit at lunch tables when students would go around and say what their parent’s preferred tool for beating them was- when I was the only one not beaten? Do you want to hear about the kid whose father nailed her shoes into the floor so that she would stand in exactly the correct position (and not move) for 6 hours a day when she practiced? The guys I knew in a top Juilliard studio who were best friends- where every time I had lunch with one of them it was a therapy session about the psychological abuse from his stage mother- and how much he hated her? Or his best friend whose mother would bribe him with marijuana as a reward for hitting practice targets? My other friend in Juilliard whose shoulders were so hunched over and his body so full of tension he developed injuries from playing that way- and then quickly transformed - standing straight, looking amazing when he got out of the house and was living in the dorms at Juilliard? The soloist I knew who after one of her Carnegie hall recitals had a party at her house. She pulled me aside for a conversation and literally said “us musicians are all victims” as her husband (also a musician and teacher) nodded. Followed by a long discussion about household abuse that is simply a part of being a young classical musician. BTW when she was 4 she was forced to practice 4 hours a day. When she turned 5, 5 hours a day. Every year an hour more until she was 8 and practiced 8 house a day - on fear or beating. As far as Jackie is concerned- I didn’t know her as she was a little before my time. But I was introduced to her, as a student, by a conductor who knew her. He absolutely gushed about her as a person and musician and about her and Daniel as a couple. Since then I met many musicians that knew them either directly or peripherally and everyone had nothing but glowing things to say about them as a couple and how devoted he was to her and how devastating it was for Daniel when she passed. People would gossip if there was something there. I know a lot of ugly things about other musicians- but I've ONLY heard complimentary things about their relationship. As I mentioned there also is quite a bit of footage of Jackie and Daniel and the body language, and how they played together reveals the exact opposite of the story the guy in this silly video is concocting to try and justify his weak hypothesis about illness.

​@@Gt3ch Thank you for your insight; I appreciate the information. My niece is an accomplished, professional musician-now a conductor-who began her music at the age of three and graduated from university with the highest possible honors. Her "book" of awards is prodigious, and at age 48, she was recently given a prestigious lifetime achievement award through her university, chosen for only a few people every 10 years. She is the only person I know of who went from kindergarten through grad school, never once missing a day for being sick or otherwise! (That makes my head spin.) She has never had health issues. She is not only the exception among musicians, according to what you're telling me, but the exception among creatives altogether. I am a retired writer and artist and have multiple chronic diseases. And as a former novice athlete, I now have to roll around in an electric wheelchair. My niece, who I believe may be more complicated than what we see, grew up as an only child and had very strict restrictions put on her at home. However, her relationship with her parents is stunning. (Of course, we can't know what is really happening in the depths where we are not allowed.) For me, I used to say that I grew up in paradise. With wonderful, loving, fun, community-related parents who took care of me, my brother, and my sister (I am in the middle), there was nothing I could have asked for. We were mid- to upper-middle-class, traveled the country with boat and tent, and did a lot of "fun stuff." I was artsy, unlike my brother and sister. I played the piano, violin, viola, and guitar. My viola teacher (when I was 12) put me in a college symphony. He was second chair; I was first! I even performed a solo concert. Well, that was the end of that. I got too "cool" in high school and switched to the guitar. That was 1969-1971. One has to admit, we did have great music for guitar-playing! But I found out the hard way that my paradise wasn't what it seemed. Our family didn't talk. You didn't bring up problems; you just ate them. Communications, not unlike so many stories in the comments here, were nonexistent. While I enjoyed my childhood, the reverberations bit me hard as an adult. My health struggles and ongoing, ever-increasing autoimmune diseases have been a growing frustration and pain in every sense of those words. I am untreated for RA, ME/CFS, Sjogren's, and migraine (and more) because of the lack of transportation and money for access to doctors that I need. I am 'trying' to begin a book I want to write. The title is "You're Too Pretty to Be Sick." That's what my first rheumatologist said to me just before he dismissed me. He did not order any blood tests. I did have RA.

@@kristineanderson4983 Have you done a food allergy analysis ? Autoimmune diseases can be triggered by certain foods. (People can actually become allergic to beef once they have been bitten by a tick. The immune system after the tick bite is triggered by the body's altered immune response to the amino acids that comprise beef protein.) The amino acids in beef itself can be inflammatory for some people, because certain ones closely resemble human antibodies. And those set off an immune response. I developed allergic reaction to eggs when young and any sulfa based drugs. Nothing very serious though.

The music in the background is really annoying!

There is this thing called life, this opportunity this called work, and a third thing called responsibility. There isn't a lot of room for most people who don't live in privilege to be anything but okay. And this presentation borders on victim blaming. She didn't get MS because of anything other than the bad luck of the draw.
