The only realization you need to find peace with Existential Questions

Hi sweethearts! I hope this video brings you peace today ❤️

I'm at 9 months since my dpdr took over my life. I've been feeling really good the past month. All of my health anxiety has pretty much dissipated. You have to tap into the root cause of your anxiety and deal with it. I go to therapy and do several exercises every day. I put in the work and I'm reaping the benefits. It's not the end of the road when you feel dissociated. It's the beginning. Good luck y'all. You can do this!

I am suffering with this exactly and for me it’s like I discovered the truth and I’m insane now so I can’t live. It doesn’t make any sense but my head perfectly made that up and it feels so real. I’m so glad I’m not the only one that has been suffering about this exact thing. I had dr/dp, existential thoughts, panic attacks for almost 8 months straight and even agoraphobia because I ended up locking myself at home. It’s insane how fast it went. To anyone who’s reading this, I promise you it’s not dangerous, you aren’t crazy, you’re just really stressed out❤ it’s gonna be okay we’re gonna be okay

You have no idea how much you've helped me with my existential crisis/ derealization. You were the person who helped me most when I was searching for answers. One day I found your Youtube channel and it changed my life. Now I rarely get anxiety attacks and I refer to you when I feel anxious. Thank you so much you helped make my life better !!

thank you , you are my friend and you don’t even know it 🤝🏽😭❤️

I just wanted to share my own victory with everyone! I came home today and just felt very sad emotions out of no where which is something I had not felt in a while… obviously sadness is not the exact emotion I’m looking for but it’s a start and it gives me so much hope! I’ve been focusing on the source of my anxiety and totally looking past the symptoms that come from dissociating. I can genuinely feel my mind starting to heal. To me DPDR is one big paradox and the more you fixate on it the more intense it gets. It was easier for me to think of DPDR as a signal from your brain to change negative thought patterns, self image, or lifestyle. When I began to think like this i realized how wrong I dealt with my own issues before DPDR. We truly can all recover.

Thank you so much for this Robin. I’ve seen so many therapists over the decades and nobody has ever come close to the levels of insight and understanding that you share here.

The gun question answer...is it doesn't matter,chasing the rabbit hole,leads to answering questions with questions to the end the gift of God to us our unique essence..thank you I have found myself

Yes! I was having the same thoughts during my existential crisis (happened like 6 weeks ago, very acute but fortunately recovery has been speedy). I just didn't take myself all that seriously and was deeply aware that I hadn't discovered anything that I wasn't aware of rationally before neither was I going to resolve ANYTHING by sheer thinking and trembling underneath my sheets. It is like going through hell, this anxiety, depression, DPDR, however you may call it, but it goes away. You do take away stuff -completely agree with the notion that there is no REALLY good and evil... but then again, didn't i already know that rationally from before? Haha, whatever. Thanks so much for your contributions to the topic. Your video about recovery and what you were going through was the first one I ever watched when I was at my lowest (the past october 13th) and it was the first glimmer of hope I had because I realised I wasn't alone, recovery was possible and this was gonna be rough, but a thing that was already set in motion and was gonna have to go through it. I don't even know if I'm stronger, weaker and whatnot, what I know is that is infinitely better to get up from the couch and start, listening to music, petting my dogs, writing screenplays and making music than stting down to contemplate "who am I right now?" "How much has this really helped/damaged me?" "What will become of me/what have I learnt?" "Will it come back?". Nah, mate. There's stuff to do and There's a life to live and in my renewed motivation I am determined to improve the lives of others who surround me - strangers, acquantainces and loved ones alike, as much as I can. Again, I already wanted to do that before my crisis, but now I guess I wanna do it more. Probably "no more procrastination" is the actual best lesson to take from this. But I don't know; in fact I know almost nothing thank God!😂 Thank you Robin and sorry for the rant - I needed it! ❤

i just discovered your channel and your videos have helped me immensely. i’ve been having an existential crisis for months now and this feels like such a breath of fresh air

Robin, you really seem to speak in a way that I can truly relate with and offer insight that puts me at ease. I have been struggling with GAD and existential anxiety for about 4 years when my life changed completely in so many ways. Although it was planned the emotions that came with it terrified me because they were so uncomfortable and unfamiliar which began the existential dread I started to feel which scared the crap out of me. I have been watching you for some time and find so much clarity in what you say. Thanks so much!! You have helped me tremendously ❤.

Thank you for making these videos. I’ve struggled with this for 16 years. I’m three months in to a terrible relapse that has had me completely unable to function. Your particular insight seems to tap into something deep inside me that I already know to be true. Watching your videos is allowing me to reconnect with familiar truths that are lost to me while going through an existential crisis. Thank you again

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH! I am a physicist stuck in the anxiety cycle and everything about science and philosophy I used to love now is scaring me so much! You have given me hope again so thank you! Were you able to go back to being a philosopher?

Hi Robin, thank you so much for your content, I'm struggling right now with another long episode of DPDR, mine was because a lot of stress and trauma, since I was a child my brain used this mechanism to protect me from the difficulties outside, now I'm 26 years old and this is my second long DPDR episode. I don't know why but this time is more difficult because I just end some things in my life so now I have to rebuild my life again and finding things that do not depend on anyone but myself, I have always noticed that couples kept me away from DPDR (That also explains some dependency patterns that I observed in myself). I am having a symptom this time that is one of those that worries me the most, because I have never had it and I wanted to ask you if you have ever heard or experienced it. Images of dreams or things from the past come to me without me evoking them, simply because of a light or something that my head associates, they just come to me, like flashbacks, it is sometimes very uncomfortable because it disconnects me and makes me think that I am in a dream or in the past. I don't know if it's something you know.. Anyway, thank you very much for putting so much effort and interest in people, you do a very important job, you make us feel accompanied. Thank you very much from Spain :)

You impress me every time by giving subtle but creative tips to help. You are an amazing person!

wow thank you so much for your knowledge! I finally feel understood with what i feel 😭 but im confident that I will learn to manage it. Thank you 🫶

Oh, thank you for that.

Hey Robin, het lijkt me leuk om met je een 1 op 1 gesprek te hebben tijdens een theetje ofzo ik weet dat we veel aan zo een gesprek zouden hebben

I have been feeling better with my anxiety but I feel weird being around people still just new faces idk and thinking if they are real people with real souls or just npc type. Or sometimes my perception feels like I'm in 1 spot when I move idk little things I over analyze makes me feel weird!!! Also what creeps me out too is thinking if we didn't exist and it was just nothing. Crazy thoughts and when I'm at work it's what I think about it ugh

Hi Robin, I appreciate your videos as well as your course that I purchased a while back. In other videos I’ve heard you talk about Love as being something that exists as well as the concept of the universe (source/God) having our backs. Question, when it comes to love, a source, the universe having our backs, and, the idea that nothing is either good or evil…how do you see these ideas cohabitating? Is there a tension between love and the idea that nothing is bad/evil? Is love good? Is love an emotion we feel as a result of judgement or is it what’s experienced when we’re free of judgment? Would love to get your perspective!
