    Hi Amanda 👋 Happy Belated Birthday 🎂. Your feed popped up, and SO happy. I've been a subscriber for quite awhile, but your videos haven't been showing up. Glad they're now showing. You look great and happy your hair is getting longer. I'm glad you out of your funk. A good idea you had was getting a part time job. Perhaps in a craft store? You could easily make new friends wherever you go. Take good care ❤

    Everyone feels the way you do. I’m older than you. And I wonder the same things and have every 10 years. When I got off Facebook I was so much happier . Seeing everyone only putting their best days and never showing real life got to me. After I left Any depression I had left. The gap between the perfect image and real life is wide and alive on Facebook. So I google how to be more positive and happier and it helps a lot. Your videos are real, and comforting . 😊

At 64, I have gone through what you are going through now. I greatly encourage you to get out and do some of the things that interest you. It will be hard to make yourself go but I bet you will find you are so happy you went! Proud of you for figuring out what works for you and gives you joy!❤

    Amanda, to say thank you for this does not even begin to cover it. I finished chemo for Carcinosarcoma (uterine) 8 weeks ago. And no one told me that I’d be a complete mess! There’s no support group there’s nothing! But this video, it’s like you took all of my words in my soul and made them make sense and perfectly articulated how I feel. Perfectly. I work a full time job, & yes, I do believe it has helped in some ways but also, I’m a mess. AND I have no idea why, what to do about it. I hope you continue to try to sort this out on here. I k ow it will help so many of us. ❤ Thank you!!

    I hope you consider doing something special one month after your birthday. By then, life would have shifted and you could consider doing something from your list. I'm glad you shared. It's weird, the feelings we keep close yet people that don't know us or the backstory don't see it. If you can't find the answer's, pinpoint a spot on the map, search for relatable events and then go experience. We don't step away to clear our surroundings and see those answers. Happy belated birthday 🎈🎂 Don't discount yourself.
