How to Overcome ANXIETY and CONTROL Negative Thoughts | Tom Bilyeu

I wonder how much of the diet thing and mood is the placebo effect and my kid has suger and no crazy tantrums, i think if a kid understands that the suger can be blamed for their behaviour they are going to act that way. Tell a kid they have drank alcahol and they will behave drunk and theyll believe they actually are

I love the UT podcast. I deeply appreciate your guests and moving people to better lives. I wrote the highest rated book on anxiety on Amazon and with respect, most of what is said here on the true source of anxiety is almost completely wrong. Anxiety is NOT a PRIMARILY a cognitive issue and therefore merely changing cognitive
processes will NOT heal your anxiety. It will help you COPE with anxiety but unless you deal with the true root cause of anxiety (which is old unresolved trauma held on your BODY aka The Body Keeps the Score) simply interrupting THOUGHT patterns with OTHER thought pattern SIMPLY DOES NOT WORK. It is simply too much effort for someone who’s already in anxiety with all the physiological changes of the body reflecting survival mode to expect them to all of a sudden think more positively. There is no doubt that thinking more positively will help you, but it only helps in the SHORT TERM. It is simply too much work for the brain to think positively when the body is in a deep state of alarm. It is simply not sustainable. This is why CBT therapy consistently wears off over time.

I don’t know if you’ll read this Tom, but the second edition of my book comes out mid September 2024 and I would be happy to come on your show to talk about the REAL cause of anxiety and a REAL and sustainable way to heal it and not just cope with it.

Again, I deeply respect your work and I am not trolling you. I am just stating that this video misses the point in healing anxiety. Again, changing your cognition, will help you cope, but unless you deal with the underlying root of ALARM stored in your body from old trauma, you will never actually heal your anxiety. I can show you how to actually HEAL instead of just COPE.

Anxiety is caused by failure of fight or flight. You are stucked in a middle which causes surge of cortisols which causes you symptoms. I suggest either you fight(face your problems) or flight(let go).

I think many people misinterpret anxiety with nervousness.

Action cures all

Anxiety is fear of the world as it is today – you can't tell me that its not very very bad. Why do you think so many have anxiety? It's a no brainer. We are fearing and trying to prepare for what WILL happen. Current environment is a forecast of whats coming. To close your eyes to this obvious alert that every 'body' is feeling would be wrong. God gives us this for a reason – to wake up and be alert to the warning.

The only way to stop it is to do what the Bible says. The Bible says only think of the things in Heaven and not the things on earth. It says to be spiritually minded is peace.

The Bible also says don't worry about anything, pray about everything instead. Worry means to think about fears.

Any other cure for anxiety won't work.

1. Pattern interrupt. Say, "I'm not that good yet. If I put time and effort into this I'll get better " 9.45 min
2. Deal with subconscious. 16-17 min.
3. Subconscious to win
4. Diet, meat and veggies til 6/7 some fruit. Tandrums probably tied to diet. 30-31 mins.

Been praying and having faith for a while tryin to beat this but realized faith without works is dead, i can have faith all i want but til i exercise that faith and get out n try ill never get anywhere…have to push forward and do your part and believe…may take a lil while but it will work out if u keep goin i promise

My issue is that when I get an anxiety attack, I feel like I have to go to the bathroom, so it's very uncomfortable to sit with emotional and physical discomfort. It's limited my life, travel… Road trips etc are off the table until I can get past this issue 🙁

I use meditation and if I'm really struggling, a guided meditation works wonders for me. Here is a very simple & effective guided meditation that I just discovered. It has worked wonders for me. https://youtu.be/kqhVvxmehHQ

I have become very anxious since both of my parents passed away a couple years ago, my long term partner also cheated on me, now I have nobody to rely on just living all by myself in a foreign country, to me I feel anxious has become normal now, because I don’t know where I’m going and how I’m going to spend the rest of my life by myself

I think the word "anxiety" is often used in the wrong way. Anxiety and nervous are not the same thing.

Anxiety and panic usually comes down to the fear of fear. We fear the way it makes us feel and then the negative thoughts of those feelings start. Once you lose the fear it loses it’s power. Anxiety is there to protect you and can never harm you. It can just get a bit out of wack when you add fear to fear and you get stuck in the anxiety loop! You don’t have a mental illness, you’re human!

I look at a few of the single most difficult times in my life. Once situation was when I was in Marine Corp bootcamp and another situation is when I was facing 3 years in jail for a felony crime. LSS, I was able to make it out of thise situations unscathed. Those are my "witness marks" that let's me know that 1) Nothing is as bad as it seems and 2) Everything works out the way that it's supposed to. Now don't get me wrong, the initial human reaction to stress, anxiety, pressure and those things is definitely a real thing, but focusing on those "witness marks" from the past allow me to recalibrate my thoughts and my faith.

Ww have to construct a narrative , do and believe that which moves you towards your goals

The psychiatrist part is one of the best things I've ever watched.
