      If you can't afford psychologist try something new in your life. Change your schedule, work, go on walks, find a new hobby, talk with someone. Sometimes we just need a person who can listen and support without judging. Even if it's a stranger.

    i think i just noticed part of why i love these videos so much - the fact that i don't have to respond, and that you do all the talking. not enough people IRL respect that i want to stay quiet sometimes, and not speak, just listen. we're always expected to respond to anything someone says, and it feels like a weight is on me whenever i am in a social situation, because i have to act in a way that is socially accepted, instead of remaining quiet like i want to. i feel like these videos fill that gap in my life, and make me feel understood in a way that most other people don't get. thank you for making them 💛

    I lived in Seattle most my life and had to contend with SAD each year. Things that I found super helpful were: indoor plants (greenery inside can help when outside is unapproachable), fireplaces or firepits (super cozy! Also, if a neither are an option, a small gas burner to make s'mores or other hot treats can be a good substitute), using the time to try new recipes (baking makes the house smell amazing and keeps it warm plus, fresh baked goods are always great for lifting up the mood), weighted blankets or cuddly pets, ALL THE BOOKS, and also vitamin D sun lamps (it really helps keep the blues at bay). I also got into the ritual of having hot tea after going on a daily walk during the winter months. Mint tea was my favorite so, this video brought back all the memories. Thanks for all the tingly good feels! ^_^ Hang in there! Spring will be here before you know it!

  • @AdamFishkin

    The day you've uploaded this video is a bit serendipitous. My mood has been all over the place. I've had a whole string of nightmares where certain people are stalking me, and outrunning them is exhausting ... so already I wake up on the wrong foot, but manage to work a few hours at a time, walk around without a purpose, return to my office and work some more. Then it's punctuated by weird euphoric moments where little things will make me laugh for minutes on end. When I eat, it's less out of hunger and more as a way to calm myself down or pick myself up.
    I think the increase in ASMR as an expressive art (which I believe you've helped popularize, Lavender) will be so valuable as we head into spring, which is my least favorite month for how damp and sticky it is. Ending the day with your video is an antidote to the sluggish atmosphere: you whisper with a clarity and a consistent rhythm.
    ❤ Wishing you a peaceful weekend. 🧡

    This video is screaming my name. I suffer from SAD a lot. Here in Berlin, Germany winters are very dark and gloomy. Sometimes there is not a single ray of sunshine for three weeks in a row and then when the sun is here it's usually just a few hours or max two days before it goes back to another long period of darkness and apart from it being dark all day it's pitch black outside before 8:30am und after 3:30pm. This lack of sunshine is dragging me down every year. Last year I went to the Canary Islands in November and when I returned to Belin it just hit me in the face and I felt worse than ever before because the contrast was so terribly bad. I've tried everything from eating certain foods that are supposed to help, going outside every day no matter what the weather is like, cardio excercises every other day, daylight lamps, sticking to routines, meeting as many people as I can, going to therapy,... it all just helps me to survive but it doesn't make me feel good or even happy. Things I usually enjoy just don't feel enjoyable to me anymore in winter. The only thing I haven't tried yet is taking medication but I'm still reluctant in trying that because as soon as the sun comes back (which it luckily did a few days ago) my mental health instantly changes and I feel perfectly normal and happy (maybe even a bit manic the first days of spring) and I'm scared that with medication I don't get that feeling of pure happiness anymore as soon as the sun comes back.

    As a Scandinavian I can confirm we just try to make it comfy. Personally winter is my favourite season, maybe it’s because I’m not good with the hot weather cause again I’m Scandinavian but the cozy feeling is just the best, sitting with a hot drink (especially hot chocolate) with a warm blanket watching something on the tv while snow is falling or just it getting dark outside is very comforting. Also the air is just so much nicer, also so many more outfits to wear, I prefer baggy clothes and while crop tops and stuff are fine I prefer my hoodies but it’s too hot outside to wear it in the summer.

    Aw Sarah I’m sorry you get sad during the winter. I find the best things to get me out of my slump are to treat it like I’m a bear hibernating 🐻 and taking care of myself. I like to put UA-cam on my tv with “coffee shop jazz ambiance” so it changes my scenery when there are limited public spaces. Boil pots for aromatherapy. I’m also teaching myself how to play the piano using a keyboard I can plug headphones into. Scrapbooking or DIY home decor is fun too. Yoga, cooking, baking. Anyone reading this I hope you enjoy your hibernation 🐻💕

    Hello from Denmark (Scandinavia) 😊 "Friluftsliv" is a Danish word which translates directly to "Free-air-life". My favourite activity in the fall and winter is to go to a shelter/campsite in the forrest and do a bonfire, make stickbread and drink coffee while the kids play. We live in Northern Jutland which has many big forrests and sandy beaches. Our backyard is a pinewood forrest 😅 we also sometimes sleep outside in shelters. If you should ever go to Denmark you are so welcome here! ❤

And in Sweden we actually have our new borns sleeping outside when they take their day nap. We also have daycares that called Outside-Daycarew that is outside all day long. The sun is just up for a few hours so you have to catch it as much ss possible. But in the summer the sun doesn’t set at all and shines even at night. Take care! // Henrik
