1
There are moments when you wake up,
2
and the world is so quiet that you can hear your own heart beating.
3
And in that silence, a profound sadness washes over you.
4
Some call it the 3am curse.
5
You wake up in the middle of the night,
6
and suddenly, you're in the middle of an existential crisis.
7
You start thinking about everything,
8
your job, your future, if any of it actually matters.
9
I grabbed a pen and started journaling,
10
which led me to write this script.
11
I wondered, what if there are others who feel this too?
12
This isn't a night terror, it's something deeper.
13
It's the moment you wake up and question the entire simulation.
14
So what is this feeling?
15
In psychology, this is a brush with existentialism.
16
At its core, existentialism isn't about being depressed.
17
It's the confrontation with four fundamental anxieties.
18
Death, freedom, isolation, and meaninglessness.
19
It's the realization that the universe doesn't come from a pre-written instruction manual.
20
You are born.
21
You are free to make choices.
22
You are fundamentally alone in your consciousness.
23
And one day, you'll die.
24
And in between all that,
25
you have to create your own meaning.
26
It's terrifying.
27
But it's also the foundation of modern psychology.
28
Many therapies like logotherapy and existential therapy are built entirely around helping people navigate these very questions.
29
We'll expand on that a bit later.
30
This is a universal human experience.
31
It's the moment you stop being a character in someone else's story and start asking who is writing your script.
32
Think of Light Yagami from Death Note.
33
Before he found the Death Note,
34
he was a brilliant student who saw the world as rotten and meaningless.
35
He was completely unplugged, yearning for a purpose, even a dark one.
36
Or consider Mob from Mob Psycho 100.
37
His entire character arc is about an existential struggle.
38
He has immense psychic power but feels empty and wants to be normal.
39
Because he believes his powers don't give him inherent worth,
40
he's constantly searching for a meaning and identity beyond his abilities.
41
That feeling of, is that all there is,
42
is the first step on any existential journey.
43
It's uncomfortable, but it's also a sign that you are waking up.
44
I still remember the last time I had this feeling.
45
It was late at night after reviewing and studying for my final exams.
46
I was in my fourth year of my psychology major degree.
47
I was so close.
48
All I had left were a few electives and I would get my degree.
49
And suddenly it dawned on me.
50
What comes after this?
51
What if I graduate?
52
It's not when you're so far from the finish line that you panic,
53
it's when you're so close that you start wondering what's next?
54
What was this all about?
55
In that quiet yet painful awakening moment,
56
I realized that after this is just graduate school.
57
Another three years, maybe four,
58
and what of next after that?
59
The future felt so uncertain.
60
But what I had right then was a community on Tumblr.
61
A group of people who were actually benefiting from the materials I was producing and sharing.
62
It was a very gratifying feeling.
63
One that was immediate and certain.
64
So I thought, after these finals, I'm dropping out.
65
After the exams, I said it to one of my professors.
66
She was the greatest psychology professor I ever had.
67
A special shout out to Dr. Asinand from UBC.
68
Not only was she dedicated to her craftsmanship,
69
her Rate My Professor reviews definitely stood up to her reputation
70
and she further inspired me to take more courses that she taught.
71
She made psychology so interesting and her lectures so engaging.
72
You could feel the passion she consistently demonstrates,
73
along with her thoughtful responses and emails to your curiosity.
74
Of course, along the path,
75
many reasons inspire us to pursue psychology,
76
and that's a story for another time.
77
But it makes me wonder,
78
have you been inspired by someone to pursue psychology or whatever you're doing now?
79
If so, give them a shout out in the comments.
80
We'd love to read your stories and celebrate the people who have shaped our journeys.
81
When I told my professor I would be dropping out, she was shocked.
82
I was the top student in almost all her classes,
83
but in that moment, I felt a sense of deep relief.
84
Like it was finally over.
85
A few days after, it felt surreal.
86
I still remember laying in the tub thinking, this can't be real.
87
And there I lay, for what was the longest hour of my life.
88
And it's perhaps during these 3am hours,
89
these glitches in the matrix,
90
when you suddenly have those realizations that you don't need to do whatever you're doing anymore.
91
It's okay to stop, to rest,
92
to cease, and start anew.
93
And though, during this moment,
94
when you have people, your cheerleaders who supported you,
95
you know that you'll be letting them down,
96
and for me it was my parents.
97
At the same time, somewhere deep in this profound moment of quietness,
98
I knew that it was right for me.
99
Everything just felt so quiet, so clear.
100
Let's expand on those therapies we mentioned earlier.
101
How do professionals help with this?
102
Logotherapy, developed by Viktor Frankl,
103
is literally therapy through meaning.
104
Frankl, a Holocaust survivor, believed that the primary human drive is not pleasure,
105
but the pursuit of what we find meaningful.
106
A logotherapist would not give you answers.
107
They'd help you find them.
108
They ask questions like, if you knew where you were going to live forever,
109
how would you live differently?
110
Or, when do you feel most yourself?
111
The goal is to help you discover your unique purpose.
112
Existential therapy, on the other hand,
113
is more about facing the givens of existence head-on.
114
It helps you confront the ultimate concerns,
115
death, freedom, isolation, and meaninglessness,
116
not as a problem to be solved,
117
but as realities to be accepted.
118
It helps you take responsibility for your choices and live authentically,
119
even in the face of life's inherent absurdity.
120
Both of these therapies are built on the idea that the answer to your existential crisis isn't to escape the questions,
121
but to live your way into the answers.
122
And though I never want that feeling of what's next to be the case with Psych2Go,
123
we have such an amazing community and team,
124
and okay, tie, thank you,
125
including the Amanda Silvera who is narrating this script.
126
Part of me always wondered, what if we expanded?
127
What if we opened wellness coffee shops or workshops around the world?
128
What if we just stopped all this content stuff and expanded beyond.
129
And that's what's been on my mind for so long.
130
And though today's video is supposed to be on existentialism and these deeply gratifying moments,
131
I wanted to share a bit of my story.
132
And if you're one of the few who actually watched this far, thank you.
133
You have unlocked the founder's backstory.
134
Thank you for being here.
135
So much more amazing content to come.
136
Waking up at 3am and feeling lost is not a curse.
137
It's an invitation.
138
It's your soul asking you to live a more intentional life.
139
It's the universe giving you a chance to choose your own path.
140
It's scary.
141
It's confusing, but it's also the greatest gift that you can receive.
142
It's the moment you stop just existing and start truly living.
143
If this video resonated, you might find our video on how to find your purpose in life really helpful.
144
And for those 3am moments,
145
try our guided meditation for calming an anxious mind.
146
We are more than a mental health channel.
147
We're here to provide a message when the timing is just right.

| מבנה | בסרטון |
|---|---|
| סביל (Passive voice) be + past participle — הדגש הוא על מה שקורה, לא על מי שעושה את הפעולה | being depressed · are born · are built |
| הווה מושלם (Present perfect) have/has + past participle — פעולה שקרתה בעבר ועדיין יש לה חשיבות או השפעה עכשיו | have you been inspired · have shaped · what's been |
| משפטי זיקה (Relative clauses) who / which + clause — מידע נוסף על אדם או דבר | student who saw · people who were · One that was |
הגייה ששווה לשים לב אליה

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
