Wait what's the name of the skincare youtube channel you mentioned?
I knew I’d forget something!
Nay: ua-cam.com/users/TheGoldenRx
Thank you!
What?! Who is giving you hate for talking about your medication?
You are such a kind genuine person. I find it so crazy that anybody would want to be mean to you. ❤
Ugh, a whole manner of people, i even had a nurse do it once online.
There's a HUGE stigma surrounding ADHD medication, perhaps worse than meds for other mental health problems (in my experience at least) because they can be so easily abused if people use them recreationally.
I so appreciate your kindness! x
I would love fashion videos that aren't all about consumption! Maybe a "current favourite outfits", "fav lounge wear", "outfits that make me feel good", etc. with clothing you already own
Yes! Love that!
Might be good incentive to stop living in pajamas too.
Love and appreciate your mindfulness against fashion haul videos. Maybe a fashion video about “realistic winter outfits that make you feel good about your body and not miserable during a real winter.” Just me that I need inspiration for that?
Lol i love that idea! I think we all struggle with that!
I appreciate your vulnerability and transparency so much, Rhian. Hearing you talk about ADHD a couple of years ago was the first I’d seen it mentioned in relation to adult women - a whole lot of invalidating of my own struggles and even more researching later, I’m actually pursuing a diagnosis too. Watching you be kind to yourself only further encourages me to continue doing the same, even down to your ability to laugh at not being able to pull a sentence together as quickly as you’d like. So very grateful ✨
Thank you Jess! Wishing you the very best in your journey going forward! xx
It is EXTREMELY helpful hearing you say you feel like “why do I have to be this way”. I have struggled with that for years and I have only spoken to my husband about that and never heard anyone else express that. Whenever I expressed it I too felt super dramatic! It’s nice hearing someone say it because now I understand it’s not just a ‘why me’ thing it’s a true and real feeling. It’s not our faults our brains are funky it’s society’s and probably god’s but idk. Lol
So happy to put it out there so we could connect on it!
for me a diagnosis was great because it named an issue that i'd known was always there, and also has given me access to the help i need through meds and being able to access provisions at school
watching your journey with ADHD has been so helpful and informative and reassuring 🖤 I learned what time blindness is the other night and it was such an amazing feeling to be able to put a label on my chronic lateness and just general un sense of time and made me feel less terrible about myself
Would love fashion videos using items you already have - eg. Season capsule wardrobe, 5 ways to style a particular item, ways to turn outfits from day to night etc etc. :)
Your sentiments RE: fashion and fast fashion.... couldn't agree more. I buy less, only what I need, only second hand (can't afford the good stuff rn). My sense of style has changed and my view of fashion has changed because I'm more mindful of my consumption.
Exactly, I don't want to continue to be part of the problem!
I want to shift toward this approach. Do you mainly shop locally or is there an online shop you can recommend?
@@-natmac hi! I LOVE thrifting locally so that you can see and feel the fabrics, but because of COVID still being really bad here in the States, I use ThreadUp! They have a website and a shopping app. It's all secondhand clothing! Then there is Poshmark and Depop, both of those are reselling apps where you would buy the clothing item from an individual. With ThreadUp, you're buying from a company. I hope that helps!
Re: Fashion Video Ideas
Seasonal styling of clothing you already own. -We all own the basics but maybe you wear them different depending on your moods/weather
Yes!! Love this idea!
Yes I love these kind of videos!
That last question put a smile on my face. My husband and I are about to close on our first house and we have never owned a dog together and we decided that we are headed to the shelter to adopt one asap. We love dogs, but we are both very much cat people, I am now certain that a senior dog will be a better fit than a puppy 😂
I'm so happy for you! What an exciting time! x
I truly hope this comes across the way I want it to, but I am so glad you and Adam are doing well! You were candid in the past about things, but yeah, you two really seem to be doing so well and I love to see it! :)
I love that we finally got a glapse of him a few months ago in a video after hearing about him for years!
Thank you Anna! 15 years is such a long time to be together and we're just glad we pushed on through
My advice on panic attacks. I let my partner, my family, my friends and my close co workers including my supervisor know that I have panic attacks, in the case I am having one and they notice, they need to remind me to BREATH! Breathing is natural and we don’t try to do it but when I’m panic my breathing becomes shallow and it’s almost like I hold my breath to the point where my face, neck and arms go numb (it’s scary) then my legs get tingly. So......
1. I noticed that going through the panic attacks and trying to feel EVERY EMOTION has helped me. it’s tough at first because I just want those feelings to go away but NOW if I feel one coming on I let my body deal with it and go through it, and as quickly as they come they go. That’s THE best thing I could have done for myself.
1a) IF YOU ARE ALONE: Call someone that knows you and that can calm you down.
2.have them remind me to breath.
3. Take me away if I am in a crowded place
4. If it’s noisy turn down if possible
5. Have them talk about something other than what is happening to get your mind off of it, when I’m panic sometimes I can’t really hear very well and it’s almost like I get tunnel vision so it can be hard to focus but just try.
6. If all else fails, everyone close to me knows I have my Rx in my purse and/ or my desk and to give it to me and let it work it’s magic.
Asking for help by those around you is difficult but you must do it. Shoot, on my boss’s first day when she introduced herself I told her then and there I have this and that and this is what I need from you. I’ve had a few episodes at work, the store, my house, out in the park when everything is peachy. Let someone know how to help you. This is so long but I hope I can help someone with the tools I’ve put in place for myself. And if you must please call 911.
I love all your videos but this one especially was such a delight. Thank you for sharing with us! PS- I couldn't agree more with you about how ridiculous the health care situation is.
I missed the ask thing on IG the second time around 😢 originally I asked for your favorite tea recommendations. I love tea and am always looking to try new ones.
Decorating my tree and watching Rhian. Wonderful night.
Aww lovely!
I have an idea on how you can do fashion videos ! You could see how many outfits you can make out of what you have or you could do thrift store hauls?
Great idea!!
I love how much you love animals
I wasn’t diagnosed with adhd until this year(I’m 32).. and I somehow made it thru honors classes in HS, and graduated with a bachelors.. now that I’m medicated, I have no idea how the hell I made it thru college without a diagnoses. Anyone struggling I feel you-go to the doctor-and make sure to be an advocate for yourself!!
This is an especially common story for women diagnosed as adults and often the reason there are comorbid mental health conditions like anxiety and depression! So happy for you that you finally got a diagnosis too, its just a shame we end up with so much to undo once we figure it out x
The way you said "cider" made me full on chuckle 🖤 you can take the girl out of Bath!
Needed you to have the authentic tour guide experience!
Hey Rhian, I can’t see the link to the esthetician you mentioned in the description. I’d love to check out their advice! ❤️ Also, I loved what you mentioned about you and Adam choosing each other to quarantine with. That’s exactly how my husband and I have felt this year and it’s a great feeling to realize. It’s such a clear indication that you’re with the right person for you!
My bad, its Nay/ the Golden RX: ua-cam.com/channels/a9iOE-ab8i9cXkUa7wJqOQ.html
She's amazing!
Love your thoughts on quarantine life too! xx
I love your stance on fashion! 💚
For a plant I would be a pothos, ivy, or cactus just because they are somewhat indestructible and the cactus because I can be a bit prickly when needed.
Hahaha i'm glad you have 2 planty sides to your personality too!
For communication etc I highly recommend the Dialectical Behavior Workbook. It's fantastic for developing healthy relationships.
So nice to chat with you! Thank you for these moments of pure relax ♥️
You seem to have such a great soul, and try to be such a good person. I know having a mental health disorder can be challenging and make you feel so anxious. Your videos are quite relaxing, I love them. Please do more skincare (part of self care, relaxing also) videos. Love, all heart with you.
Thank you so much friend. So glad i can bring a little relaxation to you and i'd love to do more skincare videos! x
Thanks for sharing! I love the eye look!! Combining them made the most beautiful color 😍
Love your videos!
🤗 love when you keep me company while I getting read to go to bed... love those Q&As, so relaxing. Great talk.. as always thanks for sharing. 💜
Thank you Lily! x
a joy to watch while having my coffee this morning :)
Aw thanks Amanda, i hope the coffee was delish!
Love you!!
Watching you doing your makeup is SO relaxing omg! ☺️
What a BIG bird, I didn’t know it was called like that! 😂
I should really do just like you and stop planning things, I am trying my best to live in the present moment!
My doggie is almost 14 years old and we found out few weeks ago that he had a heart disease (which is why he was sneezing so much) and that he was a bit too big for his size! So he’s on a little diet and he has to take his medicine every day but you know what’s weird? I’ve never seen him this happy and joyful his whole life it was as if he was a baby again! 🥺 I love him so much! I know that when he’ll be gone he would have had such a wonderful life!
Sending love to you and your doggos and Adam! 🖤✨
Dogs are funny hey? I hope your guy continues to do well! Many senior dogs do develop that and do super well with medication for a long time to come.
Lots of love to you and your fam
This Q&A made me love you even more (especially hearing you talking shit about certain heads of state lol) 🖤🖤🖤
Oh DM me any time, i'm always happy to bitch! xx
Shopping your own closet! Styling ideas with what you already have
You totally had me confused on the eye look...I was like, wait what....blue!? Haha turned out so pretty!! 💕
Hahaha i realized that after too because i didn't even mention it! A surprise!
I should be working right now but I'd rather start off my day with you, lovely! Shhhhh no one tell my boss.....
wowwwww talk about in sync. i was making a christmas list and adding houseplants and I added fiddle leaf fig and then right after you said that about you in houseplant form!!!!
So much love ! ♥️♥️♥️ do you have a video about your resources you use to learn about ADHD/ ways to cope. Thanks ! ☺️
Absolutely! I link a few of them in the video or if you search ADHD on my page, they should all come up! x
I like the fiddle leaf fig answer. I think I'm the same. LOL. Also Bath 😍
You’re so cute and so smart 😊
Hi 😊 I can't believe you grew up in Bath, I live in North Somerset. Love your videos xx
Ahh neat! Yes, i miss it so much!
Thoughts on glossier, and Burt's bees? Shea moisture?
How did I not finish this video two months ago? I just asked a question on IG that was in this video 🥲
Love 💘, so much and hope everything is going well for you and God bless you and stay safe and healthy. Love 💘, 💘
🤩
*GASP* Never apologize for long videos! My schnoodle will be turning 13 in 2021 and she is getting super lazy, especially in cold weather. Just this morning she put one paw outside and ran back in and snuggled onto her bed. It was too chilly :D
Aww what a little sweetie! I don't blame them when they say "mmm nope" to the cold weather! xx
✨💜
Your cactus is some type of euphorbia. Maybe an african milk tree.
I should have asked a better question. Like, "what was the biggest shock moving to the US from England?"
My mom says the white walls everywhere. 😂
Hahaha thats so random.
I would say the massive gaps in public bathroom stalls and people openly carrying guns were the biggest shocks to me.
And at the time, how much people would customize their food when ordering... although thats more common in the UK now too.
🧡🧡🧡
Check out mighty fix, that's the company I wanted to tell you about. They make solid dish soap, plastic free food containers ect. Idk thought it was a cool subscription service
Being silly is a great answer. I'm a bit goofy myself 😉
Edit: be serious when it comes to serious matters but otherwise allow yourself to be silly, if you are so inclined.
Well said!
Would love some fashion videos that aren’t focused on ~consuming~ so much!
Are you gonna be trying out Jamie Genevieve’s new makeup line?
It looks gorgeous! Let me see who they're certified by as CF x
My boyfriend also wasn’t plant based when we first started dating. And I wasn’t eating red meat or chicken but I was still eating fish and the ONLY reason he became mostly plant based (he still eats fish and shrimp occasionally if we go out somewhere) was because our friend was saying it was crazy that I hadn’t eaten meat in 6 years and told him that he bet he couldn’t last as a vegetarian for a year so my boyfriend took the bet and bet his soul on it lol
Anyways he won the bet, kept his soul and hasn’t had meat (other than the seafood on occasion) in almost 6 years. He really wanted to keep his soul lol
Hahaha i love that it was a bet that did it! x
@@rhianhy he doesn’t like to lose lol
🥰💜💜💜💜
RE the question about attachment - Kati Morton is an awesome therapist and lovely human who makes excellent and very accessible UA-cam videos. She has a whole playlist on attachment. Learning about my attachment issues has been extremely helpful to me 🧠✌🏻 ua-cam.com/play/PL_loxoCVsWqzffYFNAe-xMdoAiQiE3H78.html
Hey rhian! I know you usually have captions but this video doesn't have them available 😭 Is the video just too new right now?
So sorry! Looks like UA-cam doesn't save that preference any more but hopefully it'll work now. Thanks for letting me know!
Is it just me? I cannot get any of the links for the makeup to work.
sorry! should be fixed now x
@@rhianhy It is thanks so much.
Would you be able to share the name of the ADHD online community that your are part of? My husband also has ADHD and I fell like this may be helpful for him.
Sorry, i didn't necessarily mean any one community but here are some fave resources:
Additude magazine
"How to ADHD" on UA-cam
I also follow a lot of ADHD accounts on twitter and they're all lovely, i often RT their accounts if you wanna check there too!
All the best! x
@@rhianhy Ahh, gotcha, was thinking you meant like a facebook group. Thank you for these resources!
You’re cute!
You're cute!
sunscreen can’t be “touched up.” it need to be reapplied. after two hours, you can’t just add a little more and get back to the original coverage. you have to apply the same, full amount of a dedicated spf (sunscreen lotion, not a powder or makeup product) each time. i understand the sentiment of just popping some more on top of makeup being appealing but just be aware you’re not actually being protected from the sun that way.
Many people won't reapply the full amount in cream form though, thats the reality.
So if they can apply SOME sunscreen in a form thats easier to apply on the go (spray, SPF makeup, powder etc), i'd say its better than nothing.
is it just me or are fashion videos just not relevant right now because of the virus so our brains are maybe not interested in them because we have no where to go?
its so messed up that you're getting clout for talking about medication! for me my meds literally allow me to be productive, regulate my emotions better and think more clearly: its ridiculous that meds get demonised
I thoroughly agree. It's wild!
