"I enjoy taking care of you" "I support your growth and development" some additional ones I learned that my inner child feels cared for and supported by :)
I prescribe Heroin on the street corner yet could potentially face severe criminal charges. If I am caught what'll happen to my patients. They'll go into withdrawal. Some might not make it. I prescribe Benzo's from my medical practice yet face no ramifications. I'm always there to prescribe more if needed. Some might not make it otherwise.
A lesson in the potentials of drug addiction. Legalised drug addiction at that.
I do a lot of push and pull
Loved it

Good info. Poor audio..
Nursing student here and i have an exam tomorrow for my mental health class. This video has been excellent in my understanding of SSRI and SNRI effects qnd medicines. Appreciate you and your team so much!
The sensations in my body are ginormous. I can’t imagine a child feeling this way. It’s a lot of struggle. .
Psychologist interrupts alot! Let him complete his thoughts. Then ask your questions. Wait for your turn lady.
I think cognitive empathy is something that can be learned to some degree and people from DT can be masters at cognitive empathy but just in order to deceive and manipulate others. I think a lot of influencers in cultural and spritual spaces are like that. Maybe OSHO was example of this (or not) but some figures are obvious to people outside of the circle but I think there are many "leaders" which have DT but never will go into a conflict to be demasked. They will always be silent part of landscape and gets benefits and fame without real work that can help society. Well, they can play a role as integrator. Like ideological leader.
thank you for video. 🙏 great channel ❤
I feel better. Thank you.
Outstanding work! So very succinct and economical. Thank you!
It has taken away the itch that has been there since my teena when i first tried alcohol. I just don't feel like it for the first time in my life.

The video mentions SNRI alternatives
Go carnivore to tackle anxiety and other mental health issues, it’s a game changer. Check out dr Ken Berry and many other fabulous drs in the carnivore space. Dave Mac is also a great interviewer to explore people’s life changing results on the carnivore diet.
Ive been to the psych ward so many times i lost count, but it doesnt help, they just store you there until someone else needs the room. Thing is, ive survived 2 attempts that should have killed me - but truly the worst thing about it was that nobody visited me, no calls, nothing, just alone after surviving a bridge and a deadly dose xanax. But i WILL be important to someone who will need me. Same with you ❤
Thank you for this pattern i now let go of it
I went from 60mg to 90mg almost 3 months ago. My rumination seems worse. I'm guessing this could be a noradrenergic effect??? Feeling quite distressed at times :(
Cymbalta ruined my life. Gave me severe akathisia for 3 years. Incredible that I survived it.
I should really start talking to my crush
How do you make sure you not giving this treatment to autistic people, gaslighting them that they have a psychological problem when they just have different neurology? For an autistic this easily becomes another conversion therapy. What harms us (autistics) is all this framing of everything about us is broken. We have a 9x self deletion rate and there is a big potential for iatrogenic harm here
❤putin, mussolini, etc,etc...all abt power
Yeah this happened to me. SSRI helps people sleep but more exercise does the job better.
She's distracting in a good way. My goodness!
Knowing why and what im taking is important to me, thank you Dr Al
hello I have reactive/functional hypoglycemia for a long time checked at the hospital and I stay away from anything that is quick sugar, alcohol etc. I can't live like everyone else and the more time passes the more complex it becomes. I understand by listening to you that the many ups and downs in the mountains don't help. I would add to what you say it brings anxiety yes sadness (not being able to be fully physically and mentally) anger, irritability paranoia and also sleep disorders, a stressful world in the end I try to keep myself informed as much as possible about these pathologies, that's why I'm on your channel, thank you for the content!
This great idea!.. I had psychologist suggested a teddy I could hug pretending it was me!.. so now I hug Mr huggles!… but I love this idea will get one of these cause think I need the words I haven’t been able to say to myself!
In December 2023 I gotten my booster shot and been dealing with a list of symptoms. I’ve been having trouble getting 8 hours since. So on January 4th after a bad night being up for 40 hours I thought sleeping more would ease my symptoms. For 3 weeks I slept for 10 hours and slowly was weakening my sleep drive. I tried going back to 8 hours but then have a hard time falling asleep and staying asleep after 5 hours. I miss being out for a whole 8 hours, so I gotta try this out.
Came here to know what a schema mode is, but I don't feel like you explain the concept of schema modes. You're just giving examples of them. I want to know what is included in a schema mode. How's it different from just schemas, or emotions, or coping behaviour?
The mode is the expression of the schema. It has both an emotional and behavioural component
Very informative
These are some AMAZING tips. THANK YOU! I'm premed and the first tip reminds me of active recall methods my peers taught me! And the second reminds me of Meditiation (Edit: you actually mention it in the video as well haha) and reframing the idea that you meditation HASN"T failed if you weren't focused the entire time; that is DEFINITELY the final goal for sure, BUT according to a lecture I watched by Dr. Andrew Huberman, it's the act of being able to bring yourself back to the point of focus is EXACTLY what increases the attention span and the thing that makes it all work! :D
I saw the other video and it got me curious to watch thix entire video as well! would you all be able to speak about the long-acting medications like vyvanse? Or do you have a video about that? Psychiatrist basically told me that it's a good idea to stop taking short acting stimulants on weekends. He told me that when I was on Dextro. But I'm not sure about long acting meds like vyvanse though. Is there possibility for dose creep and tolerance in the long acting case? Cuz to me, it seems like it's not going to have a spike impact with a heavy drop. idk! and i'd LOVE to learn more! This was an awesome video and I appreciate you all for making the concepts so easy to grasp!
I suffer from Depression and Panic Disorder. On Effexor 300mg for the last 5 months and although i feel better i still dont feel like my old self. (I was on Paroxetine 20mg for 15 years until one day it just stopped working.) My question is why would my psychiatrist put me on Effexor? Is it that if an ssri stops working then all ssris wont work or what? And then we have to move to SNRIs?
The relationship is probably not okay if the person keeps breaking down any boundary you have and doesn’t know what respecting a boundary means.
I started taking Mirtazapine a week ago, I already gained 2 kg. I have always been naturally skinny and underweight. For me the weight gain is exiting but he hunger is exhausting. Not one second of the day passes that I am not thinking about food. So I eat all day long and I am bloated and full but even that doesn’t stop the snacking. I even stopped smoking and I hardly even noticed because I was distracted by hunger. I’m not sure if it helped my mood yet because I am still tired all the time and not so alert from this medication i take 7,5mg. I understand why people who don’t want to gain weight dislike this medication.
She ruined the video...talked way too much
This describes my oroblem😊. I love sugar and can’t have it bc of the anxiety. Not even the least little bit.
Sadly, bully attack is the only effective defense against a bully attacker who simply refuses to exit (or do anything) gracefully. It can actually be quite fun to discover you're much better at it than they are, even if you don't resort to using it in regular life. 😁 #2341
My punitive parent is furious because I refuse to listen to her nonsensical rambling as I'm 42 and she's not my mother. Hopefully she'll channel her vitriol elsewhere soon and we won't be on speaking terms. 😂 #2341
Dude's shirt is dope
I’m on venlafaxine and came across this video on a search and I had no idea about these things! I reallly wish people who are prescribed antidepressants were given this kind of education!!! So I have adhd so this took a few days to sit down and watch- I feel Venlafaxine helps with my impulsiveness and racing thoughts to a degree, I definitely feel energetic to actually get up and do things. I’m only 3wks in and I’m loving the energy it gives me and mood booster too! Rejection sensitivity is faintly there with adhd but it certainly helps me not dwell on the negatives! When watching this video you mentioned that these effects can dwindle over time? If that’s true what can be done? This happened with me on Prozac, after being on it for over a year I noticed brain fog but everything depression gives you was all still there, just I could not bring myself to think or self evaluate my emotions, not necessarily numb, I feel that’s the wrong word, because I still felt sadness and drained, I guess maybe slow? I’m not sure how to describe it but it was a decline in effectiveness
Karen was right AND the Karen thing was used here in the USA too so the concept was probably created by a think tank somewhere.
To be direct, the contempt for the people, including the doctors, who were right was off the charts across the entire Western World. Great video except the Contempt shown for the people in our society who were right. Billions of people were used as experimental lab rats for genetic therapy to benefit the military industrial complex & pharmaceutical companies and to me, that’s a really sad thing.
Seroquel doesn't make you sleep. It puts you in coma
Seroquel is slowly killing you end of the talk

What you describe as true anhedonia was one of my Covid symptoms. It lasted for about 6 weeks, then it gradually went away. It was something I never experienced before, even though I know what depression and anxiety feel like - but this eery feeling was way different. Thanks for this accurate explanation!
Not true
Reminds me of Amy in gone girl
