This was what made"flippant" comments about anxiety so damaging, mental health campaigner and writer Lucy Nichol, who herself has an anxiety disorder, told BBC News.
"I've had years and years of therapy. I've been taking anti-depressants. I've had to take beta blockers when it's been really bad. "I thought I was going to die. It took about one and a half to two hours. It doesn't help to be told to chill out.""If someone experiences very severe anxiety and sees those sorts of comments, they might not seek help."Anxiety can cause many different symptoms. It might affect how you feel physically, mentally and how you behave.
Who is Jake Paul, please? 😁x
Who is this fool and why do we care?
BBCWorld jake me so hurt are you f====g out of your mind
His fucking wig is giving me anxiety
BBCWorld The truth hurts. ALWAYS!
Hello has he got a brain you cannot stop getting anxiety. It happens try living with it .....
Had to check as I confused this guy with Paul Jake. Who the feck
BBCWorld He is true!!!!
If you can open yourself up to the fact he might be right, then you are on your first step to overcoming anxiety disorders. With perseverance & informed guidance it is possible. Denial is an obstacle to recovery.
Another unqualified YouTube influencer who believes he has the answer to all of life's problems
Never heard of him, thankfully.
Is this buffoon an ‘Influencer?’ .. or as it appears to me is he someone with no discernible talent that gets paid by promoting & marketing goods &?services on his ‘platform’?
BBCWorld Anxiety is what helps you not get eaten by a tiger... Too much anxiety will also kill you... Its noone's fault that we are a product of evolution. Anxiety is essentially natural selection at play. I think he should apologise for giving out unsound advice...
BBCWorld But je is right
I meann 🤔... It’s not not created by my.
BBCWorld Why is he relevant anyway ?
BBCWorld Keep calm and trust in God. It works everytine
BBCWorld Some anxiety is, I would say, but not all.
He has been to therapy.
Was he really criticised though? By who? Some shitposters on social media who can’t deal with their own emotional reactions to a different opinion? Never mind that he is, in the main, completely correct.
Is that one of those rich reality simpletons that poor simpletons enable?
He looks so fucking simple. Nothing more to add.
Who is he ?
BBCWorld I received similar advice in my early 20s and it took a while for me to interpret it as less of a personal affront and more like: “No matter what anyone says, you are in charge of your life and occasionally it’s your responsibility to remind people of that- including yourself.”
Anxiety USED to be a psychological disorder created by perceived extreme stress. Unfortunately the term has been diluted by spineless idiots who over use it for everyday descriptions. Like people who say they have a migraine when they only have a headache to fish for sympathy.
Is the guy from Napoleon Dynamite?
Who is jake paul
Its an internal feeling so in some way he is correct your brain creates anxiety but outside influences dont help , speaking from experience with it
❄ ❄ ❄
BBCWorld Don’t think so. Anxiety reducer!
BBCWorld He’s somewhat right. What used to be called “nervousness” is now called Anxiety. There used to be a difference. Now it’s grouped as one. Some individuals could have anxiety, but the majority of people are just nervous and stressed due to their personal thoughts surroundings.
Which is a true statement, why receive criticism over telling the truth?
Simple question who is he?
BBCWorld Jakes a 🤡
Who the f**k is Jake Paul?
But it is...
The BBC staulking social media pages to find something woke and left. ScrapTheLicenseFee
He is correct. Everything is an appearance to mind. Anxiety is just a physical manifestation of a negative state of mind
Another non career millennial telling us all how to live, what to buy and when to breathe. Sod off
Has anyone else had to 'google' who he is? 🤔
BBCWorld The worst this BBC, is that you RETWEETED THIS BS. I really don't give a sh*t about this person. Thank you.
BBCWorld true
Well, yes, many people get anxious when they say things in public.
But this is so true. Anxiety and depression didn't exist nothing like it does today.... one reason... social media... mainly Twitter because of the toxic environment that is allowed to be played out. He speaks sense.
Lol every single feeling you have is created by you. Oversensitive people these days...
Why are you wasting time on this fool?
BBCWorld This is not world news.
true, as far as it goes.
No one cares. This is not news. This is why you are terrible as a news outlet.
Just saying aloud what other people are thinking.... Seems you can't open your mouth these days without someone criticising what you say !!
Who is this arsehole
Ok then...I will remind myself my anxiety is my fault & not caused by my rapist raping me 👍
great glasses, I’ve got similar for watching tv etc,,, go big or go home 👌🏻
BBCWorld
This tweet is giving me anxiety.
Yrs gone by ppl had confidence to deal with daily life. From work to home a days this generation who hv no confidence to deal with what is given to them in either work wise or in general life & ppl expect it to b all good & no disappointments or stress.
It’s true. Anxiety is the emotional reaction to the bodies fight or flight response. With the right training one can cease to be anxious even in situations were anxiety is expected...
BBCWorld I’m sure any anxiety for everyone comes from him looking like a modern day napoleon dynamite. Those glasses make me want to take mine off so I can’t see them anymore
He's not entirely wrong
Course in remote parts of the world where western values haven't reached there is no anxiety, depression just empathy for others. Think about that folk's.
I don't know who he is but how dare he claim people take responsibility for their own problems, doesn't he know its always someone else's fault?
Who? Is this even a real person? Looks like a Harry Enfield character
What is wrong with these people? If you don't like what happens on social media then GET OFF SOCIAL MEDIA. How dumb are these people.
You won't really get anywhere not addressing yourself. The typical response is to play victim and search for someone else to blame other than your own body makeup. Sure, there can be external factors, but it's about how YOU deal with them, after all.
As much as he's a piece of shit I think his intentions were good.
Who's Jake Paul ?!
BBCWorld In todays world you cannot say anything without being criticized. Someone will probably have a negative comment about what I just said. And, you know what? I could care less what you think or say... Have a nice day :-)
Humans need to get off these sites listening to tripe from other dopes. Surround yourself with real friends.
Badly informed arsehole.
OMG someone said something
I think cheese should be only be eaten on the weekend! Can I have some free publicity for saying something please I'm not famous and need the attention 🙏😁🙏
BBCWorld Who? They just picking random people off of twitter?
Who's he?
Never heard of you and doubt you have the credentials to support your statement so shut up
BBCWorld Society can only improve the more we listen to our sages.
BBCWorld SirYacht
Another nobody being made famous by the bbc
Seems unlikely Jake Paul will be very worried about criticism and you've probably guaranteed him a whole load more hits.
BBCWorld Who gives a damn about what some spoiled YouTube star has to say?
Why is this even a controversial view? I suffered from crippling anxiety for 2 years unless you realise that it is within your own head you cannot overcome it. Unless you keep telling yourself it’s in your head it just takes over again.
Where would news sites be without social media... cos there's nothing else happening, there's only X,Y,Z are upset because of what D said. Seriously, it's like being back in primary school.
Our take on the causes of anxiety: too much individualism in Westernised culture.
Sorry.... but I rather get advice from a counsellor.
Some absolute nobody says something stupid, cue outrage? Come on people, ignore, swipe up and move on with life bbcnews anxiety awareness
Looking on here I’m starting to think it’s something to do with hair dye.
Self programming.. your life us a story and you are the author..
He's correct. If social media is contributing negatively to a persons mental health they need to disconnect from it.
Who? Is the BBC trying to be cool and with it 😳
BBCWorld why does he unironically look like that
Thanks for the advice. I'm currently buried in a coffin, six feet deep. My phone battery will soon run out and then I will run out of oxygen and die. But thanks to you I'm not anxious, because I now know that would be my own creation.
'Who's Jake Paul?' said 99% of people
I don't know who he is and I don't care what he thinks...
BBCWorld Well it is: anxiety is a response to danger and if used properly can lead to positive action to correct the problem. Americans should use their anxiety about their country to vote out the crook/corrupt Trump and his administration.
How the hell is this news? Child poverty, Unemployment, Floods, Coronavirus. That's news not this wee Ned from a platform that will not help anyone in the real world.😡
He's correct ..
BBCWorld He sure is not a role model in my eyes the things he done in the passed is he a Dr. now I don't think SO!
Who is this person, and why does anyone care ...
No idea who he is but he talks sense in this tweet. A little Stoicism never goes amiss. You cant control what happens to you but you can control how you react to it. The exact opposite of narcissistic victim hood
It does come from within so why is he so wrong?
Take the piss he ain’t relevant enough to be UK mainstream news
BBCWorld So not true ,he should be a shame of himself!!!
BBCWorld Who is jake paul? 🤔
BBCWorld defo majority of anxiety & depression is man made 👀 ofcource serious events like accidents, attacks or illnesses play a big part but the rest is humans punching above there weight & listening/following hypocritical & contradicting public 🦠’s 🤷♂️
BBCWorld He has a point though!
Anxiety is all you bud has nothing to do with anyone but yourself. Wow. Love marshmallows it's always someone else's fault
He is right and what's wrong with that. Unless I am missing something here.
If ppl took personal responsibility for their own mental health and general wellbeing and understood what is right for them and what is not right for them then everything would be so much easier.
Never heard of him 🤷♂️
Same could be said about offense.
Especially if you run scams everywhere.
This llama is more of a Carl than a Paul really
