a ton of you already did there's gonna
be a lot of good stuff there and it
might be something that just you need to
get through your day okay so yeah this
book idea all right so the title of this
book is going to be the isolators guide
to overcoming depression alright so how
did this come to mind well I am somebody
who I meet I meet people where they're
at okay so isolation as some of you know
is one of the worst things for your
depression and your anxiety I've made
videos about this in the past I
discussed the brain science and
evolutionary psychology behind this but
like if I just come straight at you and
say hey go out go go do stuff like
you're gonna look at me and say nah
right so I'm making a book to take what
you're doing or what you won't do and
try to give you help because everybody
can get help no matter what and I want
you to think that just
because you're in a certain place in
your there's no help for you so I am
somebody who will help with your
depression a bunch of these books it's
weird
I'll see how it goes
version of this book as well alright
this amazing woman and we had a video
call and she helped me just kind of
organize some thoughts and just get
started I love her for that so if you
are her links down below go follow her
on Twitter she's an amazing amazing
woman yeah
so we're talking about this and I want
to get started by you know getting
feedback from all of you like this book
is for you like I want to make sure that
I'm doing this for you and there's gonna
be useful tips for you chances are if
you're struggling with something other
people are struggling with something as
well okay so I ask you three questions I
posted all over social media as well as
here okay and I'm gonna pin these
questions down in the comment because I
need you to help me write this book and
and everybody whose suggestions I use
will be credited in the book I will have
an entire page or two pages depending on
how many people contribute
all of you will be credited in this book
pretty sweet right so question number
one what are your fears like anybody who
isolates those fears right like fear of
you know being judged by people fear of
you know some interactions fear of being
harmed whether emotionally or physically
or whatever like what are the fears that
are surrounding this okay and then the
second question is very similar to the
first but there's a method to my madness
the second question is why do you
isolate okay I'm guessing a lot of this
ties into fears but I would like to hear
like personal experiences maybe okay I
just like to tie in personal experiences
because sometimes I can tie that in with
something that happened in a previous
relationship in your childhood with your
parents or a family member or even at
school or whatever so why do you think
it is that you isolate okay or what kind
of thoughts are going through your head
for example some people don't like
hanging out with friends because I think
the friends don't really like them or
you know nobody likes them nobody cares
about them or whatever it is
so let's number one is what are your
fears question number two why do you
isolate question number three most
important question what are your hobbies
what are your interests what do you like
to do okay and there is nothing too
stupid to put in there okay I don't care
if you like watching YouTube I don't
care if you like being on Twitter I
don't care if you like to draw or paint
or watch TV or Netflix I don't care what
your hobbies or interests are just let
me know okay because what I'm gonna do
is I'm gonna take things that you
already like doing and explain with
neuroscience how this helps with
depression okay so those are the
questions I've got to pin them down in
the comment section below just a real
quick patreon plug I know a ton of you
