Summary

How would you overcome the fear of aging?

Can you use TEAM for sports psychology?

Describe your typical day, David--
do you ever get down or anxious?

Hi Listeners:

Thanks for your many and awesome questions. I love to answer them! And there will be more to come in future podcasts. Your questions are GREAT!

Vipul: Tell us about your new book, Feeling Great. How will it be different from Feeling Good? And can people with schizoaffective disorder be helped? (story with Stirling Moorey)
Guy: What’s a nervous breakdown?
Rob: How would you treat a field goal kicker who’s afraid of missing the winning field goal? Would you use positive visualizations?
Michael: How would you treat someone with the fear of aging? I turn 60 in a few months, and have been experiencing anxiety around not be able to do some of the things I love as I age.
Hidem: How fast is fast? I notice your frequent use of the term "High Speed Recovery" (and even Warp Speed) when describing the benefits of TEAM CBT. How rapidly does the average patient recover?
Brittany: I had an idea that I think would benefit a lot of us. I’d like you to do a podcast on a week or a day in your life. The ups & downs of your moods, triggers, etc., & most importantly how you deal with them. Do you write out your own Negative Thoughts a Daily Mood Log?

Thank you for all of your great questions, comments, and testimonials! Rhonda and I really appreciate that!

David and Rhonda

PS Here's a great question we did not get to today. We'll do it in a future Ask David, as it's really important.

Rubens: What can you do when you can’t identify your negative thoughts? I get anxious, but don’t seem to have any negative thoughts. Is it really true that our feelings always result from negative thoughts?

1:30.5	from feeling good? Right, Eddie, thank you for that question. Feeling great will be the first
1:38.3	true sequence to feeling good. I've written a lot of other books in the meantime, and there are more
1:43.7	kind of applications of what was in feeling good to different things like dating or whatever.
1:50.1	But feeling great will have all the new team stuff, particularly positive reframing and all the techniques to reduce resistance.
1:59.2	It'll have all of the great cognitive tools that were in Feeling
