  1. I’ve been doing this for years now and it’s so liberating! No need to burn yourself out trying to hang around people who don’t care enough to put in the effort
    357
  2. It took me a long time, but over the past couple years I’ve gotten much better at communicating and learning to say no more often. It’s made a huge difference in my interactions with people and making sure I don’t compromise my boundaries
    228
  3. This is an interesting topic! Being a minority myself, I never really understood the appeal behind or explored hookup culture much at all
    217
  4. I always struggle with getting myself to start things, but once I do feel miles better
    117
  5. I’m guilty of self-sabotaging myself a lot with my thoughts and ending up unnecessarily worrying about things I don’t really need to. Have been getting better at mitigating the problem at least
    115
  6. I’ve been guilty of self-sabotage so many times over the years. I’m not sure fully how to stop myself 😅
    113
  7. This is the way to go! It was lonely at times (and still is) while working on myself, but I have the right people around me and love the people in my life
    104
  8. I think about this a lot, including whether life even needs to have meaning
    83
  9. Congratulations on becoming a Dr! It’s been a while and I don’t get to watch YouTube much nowadays. I feel like I stress myself out worrying about how much I worry 😂
    81
  10. The timing of this video is perfect. My brother the past few months has been constantly insisting he has ADHD because of videos he’s seen on Tik Tok
    76
  11. I’ve gotten a lot better over the last year or so at accepting circumstances I have no control over. Life isn’t perfect and issues will always come up, but I’d rather focus on the things I can change and impact
    75
  12. I needed this. My self-esteem sucks pretty bad no matter what I’ve tried
    73
  13. I’m normally pretty good at finding people who genuinely like me, but I have trouble getting closer to others and being vulnerable 😅
    73
  14. This is something I really want to learn more about, as a guy I do my best to support women, but worry about potentially doing or saying the wrong thing even if I have good intentions!! ❤️ Hope you have a great day Ana
    70
  15. As an Eastern European, I found this really interesting! Our norms for hookup culture and relationships are much different than they are here in the U.S.
    67
  16. This is really helpful, especially for me as I don’t have much relationship experience!!! Happy Monday Ana 💜
    67
  17. I feel really stuck when it comes to work. On the one hand, several of the people who work with me are my best friends, but on the other I hardly have time for hobbies or doing stuff I enjoy these days
    67
  18. I was just talking about this with a close friend of mine at work the other day!! What a coincidence lol
    63
  19. I’ve been at my current job 16 months and dealt with this for a while!! One of the things that helped me most is the people who’ve been around the longest telling me I’m doing great
    52
  20. Looking forward to hearing about your findings!! I’m doing a huge research project in the fall and need to mentally prepare myself for it haha
    52
  21. I’m so happy to see this after work, confidence is one of the things I’ve been working on during my sessions!! Hope you’re doing great ❤️
    50
  22. Wow, I just saw the title and wouldn’t have expected that based on all the stories I hear from people I know about their exes!!
    50
  23. This is very useful, thank you!! I went to therapy earlier in the pandemic and didn’t feel I got as much out of it as I would’ve liked
    49
  24. Love the intro and dedication to the Halloween theme!
    48
  25. I used to do this, but ended up learning the hard way to step back/break away from unhealthy friendships and relationships! I tried very hard once to keep one alive because I liked the person, but there was nothing I could do
    47
  26. One of my classes last semester discussed this in depth. Algorithms can do a lot of damage to society
    47
  27.  @aes_00  No worries! At least where I’m from, it’s much more traditional and frequent hookups are pretty frowned upon
    41
  28. Thank you so much for this!! I compare myself a lot and seemingly can’t resist 😅
    29
  29. Your videos are always a blessing, I look out for signs of immaturity when dealing with people I know because it gets very draining, though I also recognize some things I do are immature and can improve on!! Happy Monday Ana ❤️
    29
  30. I needed this video!! I’m struggling to support a friend who means well, but repeatedly crosses boundaries and needs a lot of support. Hope you have an awesome day Ana ☺️
    27
  31. This is just what I needed, it’s been a tough week lol!! Your cat is adorable 🥰
    25
  32. As someone with GAD, I’m super thankful for this video!!
    25
  33. I’ve struggled with this issue from time to time, it is frustrating!! Thank you for this video 💜💜
    24
  34. The concept of a shadow self is intriguing, I’ve never heard of this before!
    23
  35. As an Eastern European myself, I’m looking forward to this video!! Happy Monday Ana ❤️
    20
  36. I’ve seen this occasionally in a Discord server I’m part of, and it really bothers me sometimes. Hope you’re doing well Ana ☺️
    18
  37. I love these modules so much, especially as someone currently engaging in DBT!! Hope you’re having an awesome week Ana ☺️
    17
  38. As someone who suffers from seasonal depression, I really appreciate this video!! Hope you have an amazing rest of your week Ana ☺️
    16
  39. This is the info I wish I had before the first time I started therapy! Would’ve been super helpful
    16
  40. I’m not having a bad day, but I’m saving this advice for when stressful school days come up in the near future!!! I hope you have an amazing weekend Ana 💗
    15
  41. I don’t have a partner and thus wouldn’t be considering leaving, but I love that you made a thoughtful video about it and reflect on it!! ❤️ I’ve heard about too many relationships ending based on a spur of the moment decision
    15
  42. I’m happy you posted a video showing this side as well, thankfully I have women I’m friends with in my life that support and care about me, which is certainly a privilege! ❤️ I hope you have an awesome day Ana (didn’t mess it up this time 😂)
    13
  43. This is something I genuinely needed, body image is one thing I’ve been working on!! Hope you have a great weekend Ana ❤️
    12
  44. Guilt and shame are two things I’ve been grappling with from time to time!! Can’t wait to see the video, I’m sure it’ll help me before my first counseling session next week! 💗
    12
  45. Can’t wait to see this after work!! It’s been a sluggish Monday haha ❤️
    11
  46. This is something I’ve been looking forward to, Black Swan is such an amazing movie!! 💜
    10
  47. This video came at the perfect time, I start my last semester of undergrad in 6 days and I hope I can stay motivated enough to get through it!! ❤️ Thank you for this
    10
  48. I’ve been looking forward to seeing your video notification pop up all morning haha!! ❤️ I’m excited to learn more about the differences between enmeshed and differentiated families
    10
  49. Ooh so cool, I’d love to visit Hawaii sometime!!! :)
    9
  50. This is a really cool video idea, can’t wait to watch later! ☺️

    8
  53. I’ve been looking forward to these DBT modules, mindfulness is something I’ve worked on for some time now! I hope you have a fabulous weekend Ana 💛
    8
  54. Wasn’t aware of studies being done on pretty privilege! I am excited to hear about the findings
    8
  55. Coming across posts like that on the internet these days is so frustrating! I see a lot of generalizing when browsing social media that isn’t really helpful to anyone. Happy Monday Ana ☺️
    8
  56. Burnout’s been killing me for a while. I feel like I just have energy for a couple things and nothing else
    7
  57. I’ve never really considering having a cosmetic procedure done, but I feel if it makes a person happy/is what they really want no harm in it
    7
  58. I just recently discussed this with a friend of mine now that I’m back in college for a second time (grad school), can’t wait to see the video!! ☺️
    7
  59. Excited to hear your recommendations!! Been lacking stuff to read lately outside of what I read for grad school 😅
    7
  60. Oohhh yay, Halloween’s one of my favorite days of the year!!! 🙏
    7
  61. ❤️ Looking forward to watching the video, I’ve thought about this a bit over the years because I’ve gone through stretches of time where my friend group just wasn’t good (thankfully not the case anymore)!!
    7
  62. Thank you so much for this video, being assertive is something I've been really inconsistent with!! <3
    7
  63. I’m excited to hear this!! Hope you’re having a joyful week Ana 😊
    7
  64. I’m really grateful for this video, lots of good advice in it. Biggest things stopping me right now from getting therapy is the cost and wait times, which isn’t the biggest deal just inconvenient
    6
  65. I don’t know a whole lot about antisocial behavior, looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this!! I hope your week goes well Ana and happy holidays!! ❤️
    6
  66.  @AnaPsychology  i hope so!! I’ve been urging him to see a professional
    6
  67. Can’t wait to see the video after I finish all the meetings I have today!! I hope you have a lovely week Ana 💖
    6
  68. I’m so excited for this, I’ve been loving your DBT modules and emotion regulation is something I’ve been working on!! good luck with your dissertation proposal defense ❤️
    6
  69. I just stopped reaching out and being the one to initiate all the time, and ultimately I don’t mind the peace and quiet. Got tired of people who never really seemed to care or put it any effort
    6
  70. I’ve experienced emotional blackmail with a few girls I used to be friends with, it was awful!! I hope you’re doing well Ana and having an awesome day 💕
    5
  71.  @AmericanThighs97  I completely agree with you, and think that that’s a very good point. My initial point was largely from a self-centered/individual perspective, and I had not thought of it that way. But I do also feel that it stretches into being harmful when it helps maintain patriarchal beauty standards

  72. Always hyped for more Halloween content 🙏👻
    5
  73. Happy Halloween!! Been enjoying this series, it’s helping me get through a tough stretch with grad school
    5
  74.  @AnaPsychology  it’s very satisfying! I’ve been getting better at not procrastinating on my tasks at work
    4
  75. @ I usually do. I only have a few friends, but I know they’re good people and I trust them

  84. I’m so excited to see the video after class, I’m considered to be someone who’s got depression and is high-functioning, though I don’t know everything there is to know about it! Happy Monday Ana 💕
    3
  85. Thank you for the reassurance! I was diagnosed with GAD a couple years ago, but really hardly think about it most days. There’s a lot more to me than that label

  86. Looking forward to watching after work, admittedly I know very little about relationships!! 💜

  93. Thank you so much for this video, I tend to fixate on my anxiety and worry a lot, and I definitely need to reframe how I think about it! ❤️

  100. cre8gnr8nrg Thank you so much, you’re right! I’ve had experiences where I express emotions and I just get told to “get over it.” We are always learning, feeling, growing, and changing in so many ways. :) best thing to do is not let other people’s thoughts influence how I feel
    2
  101.  @AnaPsychology  it’s the best 👻
    2
  102. I think about the future way too much, though have gotten better at managing it in the last year 😅
    2
  103.  @AnaPsychology  Thank you so much!! 🥰🙏
    2
  104. Ana Psychology Agreed, having that support is truly amazing :)
    2
  105.  @stxrglaze9974  That’s a good point, I hadn’t thought about it that way!! You as well, thank you so much ☺️
    2
  106. I’ve been working hard to try and improve my body image, really needed this!! 🙏🏻
    2
  107.  @AnaPsychology  Of course!! Haha me too, I’m also bad with overthinking everything
    2
  108. I can’t wait to watch, your videos always make my day!! ❤️ It makes me laugh when people constantly talk about others having daddy issues unironically
    1
  109.  @AnaPsychology  I appreciate it, thank you so much!! ☺️ This video brought me joy when I needed it most
    1
  110. Happy Monday Ana!! 🥳 can’t wait to see this after my Zoom meeting

  111.  @AnaPsychology  Thank you so much!!

  112. Ana Psychology Awe thank you so much, it means a lot! <3

  113. Very excited to watch this after work!! Love learning about content like this ☺️

  114. Ana Psychology That’s a good point, being with immature people can have really serious consequences. I’m sorry to hear that your friend ended up acting immaturely, it’s not easy to trust many people, especially since you don’t know how they may react or respond to even simple things like that. I’ve had moments with friends where they’ve shouted or done something incredibly immature, and it’s so frustrating
    1
  115. This is important to keep in mind. I’ve been working a ton lately and need to tone that down a bit
    1
  116. Loved this video! Often people label someone else a narcissist or another term while having only a small sample size of experiences to draw from. I feel like rarely do we know someone well enough to make such judgments
    1
  117. ❤️ I’m especially looking forward to this video!! I feel like I never allow myself to grieve much or for a long time because I don’t want to come off as being too soft
    1
  118. Ana Psychology Awe thank you so much, it means a lot! <3
    1
  119. I got a late notification, but seeing this really cheered me up!! It’s been a tough couple days haha. I hope you have a great Halloween weekend Ana 👻🧡

  123.  @AnaPsychology  You’re very welcome!! :)

  124. So excited to see this after work, I was just discussing this with friends on Discord the other day!! 😁

  125. Very excited to see this now that I’m done with classes for the week!! Been doing a lot of reflecting on life lately myself ☺️
