The single practice that has helped me deal with my own fears, and anxiety and become a more resilient human is DOING ONE THING THAT MAKES ME SLIGHTLY UNCOMFORTABLE EVERY DAY
Firstly, I was scared to death of cockroaches since childhood. So about 4 years ago I went to the pet store and got some hissing roaches( the biggest and scariest ones I could find. At first, I was disgusted at the sight of them but as time went on I slowly started to feel less and less anxious. In a matter of weeks, I could stroke them on the back without fear and in about 2 months I was handling them like It was nothing! I even named the roaches and they even had lots of babies. Now I have a 12gallon container full of hissing roaches.
Secondly, I was terrible at public speaking. Whenever I got on a stage would make a fool out of myself and the audience would be dead silent. Trust me, nothing makes you curse yourself when you crack a joke to ease a moment and nobody laughs. I had it in my mind that I was bad at being a public speaker, for a long time.
So last year during lockdown I decide to slay this beast that is my own stage fright. I found a book called 'Born Standing Up' By Steve Martin. And started practicing. I just gave a talk at my late great grandpa's Milad ( a ceremony held to pray for and honour the dead)
Thirdly, today I called and apologized to a guy I had a fist fight with back in middle school. I don't remember what we fought over, he didn't either. But I do remember him taking a jab at my face and me punching him back. We had a good laugh about it and he seemed a great dude. I think wed hang out if we didn't live in different cities.
In summary, your fears, anxiety or anything you don't like about yourself won't go away on its own. You have to put in the work and put in the hours to become a stronger, braver and more competent version of yourself.
But some things are unchangeable, I'm not saying is easy but you have to find a way to accept or at least live with them. Because dwelling on what you have no control over will only cause you pain and misrey.

I'm probably not stronger than others lol.
Edit: I only cry when I really need.
If I dont think it's necessary I can't cry.
2- I almost never spend money so it's. good?
3- I don't use my time wisely
4- I'm always kind to others, almost always. But I can be clumsy when doing that
5- I complain a lot.
I'm trying to focus on good things now
6- it's 50/50.
7- I learn for mistakes but I sometimes forget about them or I taken too much time to knowledge I was doing things wrong or incorrectly. When I know I did a thing wrong or incorrect, I learn almost instantly and remember later not to do that again or do that thing different later on.
8- YES ALWAYS. I'm learning to br less this and that and be: it's ok, just do it and dont think too much, its better. (And it really is)
9- I depend for others.
10- I give up when things cant go right. But sometimes I try again and just keep going, it depends.

Wow, this could have not came a such a better time in my life. I'm currently in transition of being a IT repair tech to a full fledge software engineer.
I have one more week left of my job and I will be finally free of my nightmare, though it has become one of my most difficult struggles now that
I am no longer a part of a team.
My gut feelings became more apparently true after I received a response back from my manager the day of my two weeks notice.
But things are becoming brighter for me now that I have a career path that I would hope will keep me interested and motivated to continue my studies in said field.
Thank you for this video!

I've been through depression, it was so bad that the idea of kms was so normal for me, i always thought about doing it, but never did for some reason, i just continued on and now I'm here, i moved on from everything and yes my mental health still is bad but it's a lot better then before. This is my only you can say accomplishment in life, it's the only thing keeping me going knowing that i survived something many didn't (and also the thought of life being a challenge and losing it meant that i was weak) but now I'm standing here realizing how just pathetic I am for this but i still will keep on going, no matter what

How can you be in control whenever applying for jobs and constantly getting rejected by the people and companies?
Even if you are persistent they still reject you because of issues for eg. lack of experience. How are you supposed to get experience in a job you want to apply to do without working towards it by working in the industry or company. They want us to have experience to work and why not offer a job or chance to work with the company to gain knowledge and experience.

I related to a majority of these. I already did know i have good mental strength, and i watched this out of curiosity.
Here is what i have to say to everyone who is struggling. Times may be tough now, but i can promise that sometime down the line, it'll get better. One day you will free yourself, and live your life to its' fullest. It may not be soon, it could even be years down the line, but keep pushing forward. I wish everyone the best of the best. You've got this.

Connecting with the joy of looking at beautiful things. This will make you fall in love with life. Like when i walk out of my house i look at trees, cars, the sun, the clouds, the desert, where I live. Even my own body. When I look at my own body I just get joy out of looking at the beauty of my own body. My body is a work of art. I can connect with that um. Just that alone is enough to create an amazingly fulfilling life.

I'm as mentally strong as a tough old bull. But the problem is, I sometimes scare people and shake them up and they call the police on me, although nothing ever comes of these things. Anybody who messes around with me the first time, is never going to do it to me again. I know how to use psychology on people and play on their insecurities. I learned a lot about being mentally strong from the old Perry Mason TV show

I do try to help people when they need it but my humor is exceedingly sarcastic and often offensive even with the people I'm helping. Alot of the people around me appreciate my supportiveness and take the way I speak with a grain of salt. It's the way I was raised, that's how my family played. People often with 10 minutes tell me I'm a good man and friend and that I'm annoying and offensive.

I dont think Im that mentally strong, since Im not always kind or forgiving to others. I also tend to have controlling tendencies from time to time. Unfortunately, I dont always have enough motivation for myself to fix these problems, but I think Ill start doing something about them soon.

I survived a murder attempt in 2016, my ex wife left me in 2017 after I held on to life to keep my promise to marry her. Now I'm in another country, trying to get better and get back up on my feet.
I think I've become a little bit stronger than before
Thanks for this video!

Me: In a situation that mentally feels like someone ripped one of arm and leg out after running me over with their car.
Me: telling myself It's always sink or swam situation and sinking was never an option
making my face though as a rock.
I can do this all day!

biggest regret was holding back tears and emotions, I miss the feeling of letting go of my problems, the only time I get to slightly cry is when I'm sober, and with my (too) care free life I literally don't cry, even when I try and want to

Love the video, animations are really apt and ofcourse cute too!
The background music was subtle and suited the theme.
Amanda's voice as usual, a charm to listen to.
And definitely interesting content!
Thanks Psych2Go

How to know if you are a mentally strong person: Objectively think of all the shit you've been through and question how are you still here and how did you survive whilst most people wouldn't have if they went through the same things

Thank you for making me realize how mentally strong I am. I am blessed with the ability to find the silver lining in any situation. Everyone experiences things that can knock them down. It's being able to get back up that matters

An other sign is to accomplish the promises you put to yourself, for example if you want to do meditation at night you don't procrastinate and complete that task, that helps a lot building confidence and trust to yourself.

I feel like I am not a fan of the team adding music, it makes it so much less relaxing, I hope they go back to the old style of not having any music, or at least lowering the volume substantially

I know I dont practice all of these things, so if I mindfully try to practice these tips, would it improve mental strength, or is that something that is not possible?

Allow myself to cry. I'm so tired of pretending like I should be feeling things that I just don't. I'm not going to force my feelings just to validate yours.
