They just want to medicate you and not help change the situations or treatment that causes one's anxiety. One just becomes an doped up person still stuck in the same situations that they can't get out of on their own. Sucks !
Anxiety isn’t normal it’s been normalized. Anxiety is high in narcissism. There’s no logical reason to be living in a so-called “first world country” and be full of anxiety lol They’ve done it to themselves it’s ridiculous they’ve allowed a lot of shite to pass into their own reality.
I'm not sure if I have anxiety or I just get anxious easily (not the same thing), but it stems from childhood trauma. This leads to every time I have to make a decision or do something difficult, I freeze and don't know what to do. This manifests horribly when I have a difficult day at work and at the same time, my girlfriend is having a terrible anxiety episide, meaning that I let everyone down that day. This causes me to beat myself up a lot. I just want this feeling to go away.
Thank God for Mr Maté. So true. But one positive thing I’ve noticed; people with a bad childhood being unsafe around others grow up keeping a healthy skeptic sense towards what we now experience as governmental overpower and control over humanity, as those with a safe childhood do not see at all.

I wish we could learn how to solve problems, not just know what it is
This is not new..it's the basis of understanding in psychology and why therapy can be useful in treating and managing our fears.
Thanks. Appreciate both of you very much💕
Poor childeren and adult Palestinians 😢 they all experience fear all the time
Awareness of triggers and seeking support are key steps in breaking the patterns of chronic anxiety. 💛✨
The mono-tone of his voice, his insights and wisdom…this man is absolutely awesome. Listening to him calms me in a way i cant quite articulate.
So…is being introverted also a defense mechanism?

Wow…great explanation. Makes so much sense.
I fell asleep with a full interview with Maté on loop and woke up feeling a lot better despite the pains of big surgery.

Umm 🤔 56K likes and rising!!! WTF 😳 (please forgive the implied swearing) that’s an awful lot of suffering people out there! 🙏🙏🙏
He reminds me of rango
But what do you do about it ?
Existential anxiety, as chronic depression is existential despair.
The weird thing is because I feare thje world I do things that I fear and am not good at. That doesn't help either, I still fear
‘Fear not dealt with become a general anxiety’
‘Fear shows up as Anxiety in most peoples lives: What should be a cry for help Externally, becomes a Cry internally.’
Love Dr. Gabor.🙏🏽💖
Religious trauma can cause this, when they are taught to fear everything in the world
I suffer with chronic severe anxiety for the last 7 years I wish I didn't have it no more
There’s a difference between fear and anxiety and 90% of ppl forget this
The world is scary
💯💯❤️
i agree
Lord help me
We need to feel safe to open up today to a great Psychologist
What do you do about it? There are no therapists out there. It's nearly impossible to find help.
Fear & anxiety are two different things.
Does that mean if I can confront and overcome the original fear, my general anxiety will go away?
Wise words. The brain and spirit are powerful.
Wow, supposed to result in a cry for help 🙌🏻

*generalized anxiety
Being alone exacerbates this anxiety. ❤🙏
I used to be afraid of sobriety and now that I’m sober I’m afraid of everything.
Just listening to Dr. Gabor and Jay's soothing voices magically relieves my anxiety 😅
