Spotting signs of someone who might not be as mentally strong as they appear Here's the scoop on distinguishing between tough acts and genuine mental strength. It's easy to mistake bravado for resilience, but true mental strength goes beyond just putting on a tough front. Look out for signs like avoiding challenges, blaming others for setbacks, or lacking emotional resilience. If you're recognizing these signs in yourself, don't worry there are steps you can take to strengthen your mental fortitude. By embracing self-help techniques, fostering personal growth, and facing challenges head-on, you can stop being mentally weak and cultivate genuine resilience from within

My mother sometimes tells me that I tend to care too much about what others think.
To an extent, this is true but it not so much what they think of ME that matters; it's how they view and/or treat others LIKE ME! To elaborate; we currently live in a world that seems gung-ho in forcing anything different either back in the shadows, into their place within the status quo or into the closet (if not destroy them outright)
This is evident by how the world treats the LGBT Community, the Disabled Community, the Autistic Community and loads of other examples. Politicians think that those with learning disabilities are potential threats to society, while also labeling those within the LGBT as child molesters. I could care less what the world thinks of me, I'm not changing for ANYONE (unless it's necessary)
But when the world seeks to harm those LIKE ME for simply existing, they are truly the mentally and spiritually weak ones

I think some people deal with negative emotions internally and try to always be strong socially. Sometimes, it's not about faking emotions and not letting others see the problems, but dealing with it personally or with particular individuals rather than letting it be your mood the whole time while dealing with the pain.
People that are used to strongly negative emotions often have a sturdier level of emotional regulation. They bounce back, and move on quicker due to being used to accepting loss and enduring pain. Desensitisation and loss of touch with reality could be argued, but I think this happens only if you are unable to come to terms with and work through the problems adequately. Or if you feel that the losses made you lose your sense of control and agency over your own circumstances, and responsibility for your future.

Well I don't mean it in any bad way it just that whenever I see videos like these it leaves me with more confusion and self doubt than before and I also know why I feel that way cuzz I always need a some sort of sign or something that can give some degree of certainty that I'm who I belive my self to be and these type of videos just creates more trouble cuzz i can relate to both side of the stories lol
Really don't know good thing or bad thing

These vids getting too real
It's been like 7 months I recovered from mental health issues that I faced last year due to academic pressure from my parents and now I feel kind of dizzy and sometimes an overflow of extreme hatred inside my mind
But, acting tough is the only thing I can do coz otherwise everyone around me will say that I'm just overreacting as they said last year
Yeah, there is no such thing like mental health in our India

Remember, these are signs but they don't necessarily mean you have a weak mentality.
I talk for myself, I'm usually mentally tough and normally optimistic about stuff, but for these past few weeks I've been quite drained because of way too many problems happening at the same time. And too little time to actually process them xD
Sometimes it's fine to stay low or under the radar and just take some time for yourself.

Yes, I see this in several people that I’m, unfortunately, related to. Have been distancing from them the last few years and my life is much better, more peaceful. Trying to surround myself with authentic people even if it’s only a few. Thanks for this video! Your description and explanation of the concept is simple, easy to follow. That’s the most effective to get the message to stick.

Hi psych2go. I know this is unrelated, but can you make a video about how to heal from emotional abuse Like purely the actual healing part Most of the stuff is how to identify it and what it is and how horrible it is and how it affects my health and not how to actually fix its effects like low self esteem, social anxiety, PTSD and just general lack of enthusiasm for life and people.

I can tell these insecurities from my host mom who used to potrait herself as very strong and competent - which to her credit she actually is - but one time in the evening when I came down stairs, she cried as much as I would never imagined from that person.
That was really game changing and insightful for anything that came afterwards.

This is such a great video. It’s impossible to be tough all the time. Strength comes from slowly going through each step, sometimes pain, until they are strong enough to not hurt from things that would have hurt before. Everyone has insecurities or doubts, but the strong know that this doesn’t define them and they can always improve

After a bad breakup in 2019, I vowed to change myself. From that point on my way of life became rolling with the punches, enjoying what I do and being myself no matter what others think of it. It's still a work in progress and there's still plenty to learn, and this video reinforces to me that I chose the right path.

My dad was somewhat like this, so I have always seem through it. It always confuses me when someone points out someone like this in awe, while all I see is someone on the verge of actively harming themselves or others. Then I see them do that and people just brush it off.
I don't get it.

0: 48 - their self worth depends purely on what others think of them
1: 58 - they think they can do anything
3: 11 - hidden or denied insecurities
4: 14 - their expressions are usually a put-on
5: 39 - they try to control others
Hope this helps y'all out

Mentally I'm strong because I learn to improve without pleasing others and I learnt to accept failure and try again and again and again until I succeed and I learn to bottle things up and move on quickly without feeling any emotion

reply

What's wrong with this cat
I'm sure I'm faking mental strength (at least sometimes)
But the only thing that was similar to me was 4 and sometimes 5 (especially when I feel vulnerable)

reply

What about bikers and mob/ gang members They look tough and often are, so what of that
What about those who abuse children and men whom abuse women They look tough and hurt people

reply

Using akito sohma as the tag for this video wasn’t a good idea. She’s one of the most gaslighting, abusive and generally shitty individuals in the fruits basket fandom
reply

One thing I learned that built my mental strength is learning, thus making it sort of religious. I refuse to be put down and prove I can do anything I put my mind to
reply

People can put up a tough facade but they could really be vulnerable inside. It often takes time and deeper conversations to understand someone’s true mental state.

watching Psych2Go is like laughing at a video with #depression or #mentalillness in the title; it probably isn't a good thing that i relate to it so much
