What is the mind? People seem to blame their mind for their problems in comments such as, "I can't make up my mind!" Or, "my mind won't stop racing." Or, "my mind won't let me decide what to do." Therefore, if this mind is so powerful that it inhibits you... What is it? What is your mind? How can you change your mind? In this video, I share one of the most significant aspects (that I think) are required to find a connection with life and more calmness. To realise that our mind is just a word, not a real thing. However, we blame the mind for many of our limitations yet it is not what is causing our limitations! If I can show you how this mind trap operates and how your ego tricks you, you'll be able to make better decisions and find more calmness too. This video may be a game-changer in your life if you can comprehend and apply these new concepts. John Glanvill - Anxiety and OCD Specialist http://www.johnglanvill.com

What is OCD? And how do I know if I have OCD are questions I am most asked as an OCD therapist. Join my OCD recovery course here - www.patreon.com/theanxietyspecialist Because OCD can manifest in so many varied ways that its diagnosis is often overlooked or misunderstood as there are so many different symptoms of OCD, Pure O, Harm OCD, Relationship OCD, hypochondria, and all the various compulsions and intrusive thoughts. OCD sits on top of anxiety and other anxiety disorders. John Glanvill gives a detailed explanation of what OCD is from a former OCD sufferers perspective. Obsessive compulsive disorder is more common than most people expect. It ranges from intrusive thoughts through panic attacks and for some, a range of compulsions that force the experiencer to repeat certain routines that may include, touching, counting, checking, cleaning. At its core are unrequested, intrusive, and obsessive thoughts that cause you to create scary stories in your mind, of all the things that could go wrong, thus invoking anxiety in your body, doubt about the right thing to do, and the need for reassurance. If you can understand OCD and anxiety in greater detail, it allows you to plot your recovery back to calmness and well-being in a practical and logical manner. My goal is to make high quality educational information regarding anxiety disorder and OCD for those who are serious about change and for those who can't afford high quality help.

After 15 years working as an OCD therapist - here is what I have learned. People tend to focus on the symptoms of OCD, rOCD, hOCD and pure O - rather than researching what the causes of OCD may be and what can be done to reduce the underlying anxiety and fear based reactions. The anxiety specialists knowledge shared with you in a simple and no-nonsense manner. I call it COD not OCD, Carefully Orchestrated Dilemmas – typically, anxious people run dozens of ‘what if’ scenarios in their minds until they begin to frighten themselves. They feel that they are not in control, however, the reverse is true, they are very in control of what they do (or don’t do), they are very in-control of stopping people around them doing things, they are very in-control of not going to work, not facing the world, not going shopping…..

OCD Recovery Course $5 per month - www.patreon.com/theanxietyspecialist Pure O has many variants including Harm OCD / sexual / religious / suicide - and other Obsessive and intrusive thoughts. In this short video, I (John Glanvill) would like to talk about a form of OCD referred to as Pure O. Where a person has scary and intrusive thoughts - but seemingly lack the compulsions - like; checking, counting, touching, cleaning and things like that - which are more commonly associated with conventional Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. These unrequested and intrusive thoughts seem to follow similar patterns which include; thoughts of harming or killing others which often leads to fearing being around knives or other weapons. Thoughts of a sexual nature about others or fears you may sexually abuse a person. Intrusive thoughts about God, blasphemy, sinning or being judged by your deity. For some, the thoughts may become fixated on suicide, becoming schizophrenic - or that you may be gay or transgender. Pure O is something I have experienced myself - and in my capacity as a therapist, I've helped many people bring it under control - by helping them to understand what it is and how to manage their attention and awareness. We can manage (or overcome) Pure O by learning more about what thoughts are, how to ignore them, then how to retrain our brains (and calm our bodies) via ERP (exposure response prevention). Then exploring the fact that you probably are a little more extroverted than most people with conventional OCD though the rebellious or dominant side of your personality is probably being suppressed. One pattern not often mentioned is that many Pure OCD sufferers do (just naturally) have very creative minds which they seem to be using against themselves rather than for their own good. I would guess that if Stephen King had some scary thoughts he would enjoy them and turn them into a book?

The 6 month anxiety development phase, this is video 4 of 38 from my Anxiety and OCD Education Course. Anxiety comes on after trauma, illness, big life changes or exhaustion. Where and when it comes on is random, but there is one pattern that always seems to be there, it follows the trauma by around 6 months. It is as if the body gets exhausted from all the worry - then turns on itself via anxiety, OCD and panic attacks to scare you into staying at home (withdrawing from life) hoping you can recharge by stopping worrying.

www.patreon.com/theanxietyspecialist - Let me share the knowledge I discovered between the ages of thirty-five and fifty-seven that I wish somebody had shown me before the anxiety fuelled mental breakdown, which initiated the search for all that mental health education and information! Can we supplement science and medicine by coupling the mind of an engineer who brings logic and reason to the world of stress and OCD, which are based on chemically driven emotions and automated neurological and biological functions? You can't think your way out of anxiety or its darker cousin OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) - because these are conditions of thinking and worrying too much! The skill of thinking was one of the last developmental phases of the human species; therefore (evolutionarily speaking), we are emotional animals who learned to think, not thinking creatures who try to control emotions. Until the science-based mainstream medical world can see this and approach anxiety disorders in new ways, we will always be treating the symptoms of anxiety rather than going to the source - the unconscious mind and the limbic brain, where profound behavioural changes may be re-registered relatively easily. Then, unless the individual can discern who they are, decide what they want and develop the courage and skills to step out and try to get it - they will likely be living a life, wherein the closing stages, they may have many regrets. My OCD recovery course documents what I learned and how I consciously reprogrammed my unconscious mind for more calmness, courage and confidence. If you are interested, I would love you to join me as I document everything I learned as an engineer who became an anxiety therapist specialising in OCD - so you can untangle your life, find more calmness and discover who you are and what you want. Sensible and practical help/treatment for intelligent thinkers who are exhausted and numb.
