    It's been a weird and rough few months for the world as a whole. I wanted to take some time to sit down and check in with all of you in a way I haven't before. More of a one on one, how are you kind of talk. So I decided to start a series that I am calling MatChats, where we sit down and talk about more personal things. Today, I want to talk about how we all feel a bit like we are losing control of pretty much everything.

      I’m afraid of dogs too, it developed when I was 6 at the park. There was this hill that I loved going down using my scooter, one day there was this lady with her dog sitting on a bench near the hill. I started down the hill and just to let you know this hill was so steep and when you went down the hill on wheels you would be going so fast, so I went down the hill feeling the same way you feel on a roller coaster but then I felt a sharp pain in my thigh and fell down off the scooter. I slowly got up and looked around and saw that the lady who was sitting on the benches dog had bit me so hard that I was bleeding rapidly, the woman started apologizing as if that would reduce the immense pain or make this any better, I slowly limped to my dad who was at the top of the hill. He RAN down the hill, struck the fear of god in that lady, snatched me and my scooter, and brought me to the hospital to get 18 stitches, I screamed the loudest when they injected the numbing juice.

So for everyone who says Game theory is for kids and nothing else I say you're not open enough.

    For plane anxiety, I heard a good line of advice: look at the flight attendants. If they aren't concerned, you shouldn't be concerned. Obviously, this doesn't prevent terror attacks, but it works great for like turbulence and stuff.

      For any anxiety, accept death as inevitable. Once you accept death, there is very little that will cause you anxiety. That's not to say to live it up like a daredevil though lmao but death is absolutely a certainty for everyone. There are an infinite different scenarios in which can cause your death. It's a wasted endeavor to stress about everything, just take care of yourself to the best of your ability and let go of the variables that are outside of your control.

  • @littleconch
    @littleconch 2 년 전 +2

    This is actually somewhat how some cases of OCD start. The crippling fear of the 0.1% chance of your fears being proven right drives you to do absolutely everything to stop the bad things you think are gonna happen from happening, no matter how absurd the actions are. And it’s common for it to manifest at around age of 18. We need more awareness of these issues because people like Matt go years suffering without being able to put a name to it and get help quicker and it’s sad :(

    Wow. I just watched this, I know it's two years later, but I just want to say, even though nobody will probably ever see this, that this video helped me overcome my almost crippling self destructive fear of death, which caused me to be terrified of anything that could in almost any circumstances kill me, INCLUDING PLANES. I used to be terrified of planes because my mind is constantly thinking, "it's going to crash, and you're probably going to die." I have only been on a plane twice, when I was a child forced by my parents, across the USA and back again, but now I have the confidence to try and overcome it, all thanks to this video. Thank you, matpat.

    I find that all phobias that aren't related to noise and falling(humans are programmed with those fears) are just the fear of the unknown. Being self-aware and knowing that death will come for us no matter what we do or what comes after it makes us afraid. Especially since there's so much that we know and are learning. MatPat is totally right when he says that humans need to feel in control.
