    It’s honestly refreshing to see someone post about mental health without glamourizing it or saying ‘you can get rid of mental health issues by eating better and sleeping more’ 💖

      @@hailiebarber I hate being told I’m going to be ✨healed✨ if I would just smile and eat a salad. Sometimes my depressed ass wants a Crunchwrap and said crunchwrap makes me feel better.

    Hailie I am SO PROUD of you!!! I literally teared up watching this and when you just said “I did it” about going through cvs the first time. It may seem small but it is SO big and it’s so incredible that you’ve come so far. Ugh I’m so happy for you.❤️

    This clearly took a lot of effort and I'm sure other fans will appreciate how open and honest you are being with mental health. Not all influencers are willing to even acknowledge the struggles people encounter with a subject like this. Noti-gang is here *supportively*

    I love that Hugo is so supportive of your mental health❤and you're super raw and honest with your daily life struggle thank you for sharing even tho you shouldn't be but it gives me positive vibes knowing that I'm not alone with anxiety my anxiety gets really bad sometimes to the point where I have to go to the hospital 😞 I think I need to up my dosage or change it...there are times where I feel like I'm really tired but don't know if I'm just being lazy or my depression or just idk but sometimes also I get tired too do simple things like doing the dishes or making food...and another thing I randomly get panic attacks as well it got so bad to the point where an ambulance had to come to check

    Thanks for sharing you experiences with your mental health!! I love that you’re being open and it really does help everyone. I’m 3 weeks off my meds and I was on them for almost a year. The journey is hard but it is worth it!! Love you 😍

    Thank you for taking time outta your day to make this video. I know it wasn’t easy. But you are going to help sooo many people. Myself included. I have a hard time leaving the house or going anywhere doing anything if my boyfriend isn’t with me. I get this huge pit in my stomach and then the battle in my mind starts. I wanna go out and live life but I get so stuck in my mind and never wanna leave home. I’ve been wanting to seek therapy for awhile now but I’m too scared to leave the house and I worry about finding the right person to help me. Hearing about the online option got me really excited.. wonder if my insurance is accepted. Although i am about to be kicked off my parents health insurance due to my age. But hearing about your experiences made me feel less alone and made me wanna get help a little more. Thank you ❤️ sending you lots of good vibes girl

    I’m so proud of you. We have VERY similar anxiety triggers and responses. One thing that helps me is always having my airpods with me when I go out. I always have one in and I listen to songs I know and don’t have to pay attention to the words or when I’m walking somewhere I play podcasts so I have something to focus on and it feels like I’m walking with friends and I’m not alone. I only wear one so I can still clearly hear around me in case. I also always carry a portable charger in my bag so that I KNOW my phone will always be charged in case of emergency. I have Uber and Lyft on my Home Screen for if I need to leave the area quickly so I don’t have to have anxiety about walking back while having an anxiety attack and I always have my favorite water bottle full with ice cold water so I can drink when my throat starts to feel dry during an attack. The super cold water helps with the attack too

    I've not seen your channel before and I'm not sure why UA-cam recommended this video, but I thought I'd just click to say I hope you're doing well! I've been on medication for anxiety and depression for a few years so I definitely understand how you feel. You are so pretty by the way, and your eye shadow is stunning 💜

    i struggle so much with agoraphobia and panic disorder, it feels so good to hear someone talk about it. i know how alone i have felt with my anxiety journey and i hope you have had a lot of support with your journey. thank you so much, you have no idea how much this means to me

    may i ask what medication you’re on? i’m curious to know if it’s what i’ve been on for several years or not, cause if it isn’t then i’d like to look into trying it. it sounds like it’s really helped you so much

    I’m so glad you shared this! I don’t have a fear of leaving my my house, but I have a fear of crowded spaces and feel super panicky when I feel “stuck”. It’s nice to know someone else go’s through this, I feel less alone now.

    I know this video is old but I’m going through a really hard time with my anxiety right now and you saying all of those things about not feeling yourself, feeling so out of it, unmotivated etc made me cry because it’s just relieving to know I’m not alone. I’m so sorry you’ve had to experience that but it just made me feel better knowing your improving but that I’m not alone in feeling those things. ❤️xx

    it’s so comforting to listen to you speak about your experiences. i feel HEARD and seen for once!!! it’s incredibly isolating physically (ofc) and mentally/emotionally when you’re struggling like this; to hear this makes me feel less insane and alone. i’m so proud of you!! healing isn’t linear 💓 the medication talk was spot on. ever since going on medication the same thing happened to me, my life slowly started to turn around i felt like i could actually control myself more like i could get a grip. it’s so nice to hear someone relate to this 😭 it hasn’t fixed me, by any means, but it makes it easier to exist most days as you’re experiencing. thank u for posting this and being so raw about it !! love u 💖

    I have so much respect for you for for posting this and being so open with us. And I’m so proud of you for seeking out therapy and medication! I know it’s a lot and can be really scary. Also, your progress with your agoraphobia is amazing!!! I struggle with the same issues and it makes me really happy seeing your healing progress 💖
