Yes I definitely feel the same way it’s definitely a quarter life crisis. My friend gave me amazing advice on how she got through. She told me that this is the point where God wants us to mature and understand the world so this mental haze will fade and not resurface later in life. So she advised me to pray to god but for the first time not pray for relief or pray as if you’re begging. She said pray as if god is your friend and you’re talking to him and telling him what your plans are and how he can play a role in aiding you. She explained that God is the creator however we are procreators so we should be praying to him in command telling him what the next move is growing confident in our relationship with god ! Then she said spend everyday doing the things that you think are in alignment with where you’re going as well as getting completely dressed and looking your best letting god know you take pride in being alive!
I had a season like this a few years ago and I had to just stop everything and say “God, what do you need from me?” I had been going through the motions and building a life I thought I wanted, but was constantly stressed and anxious. Once I surrendered my plans, my heart changed drastically and I have never been more at peace and confident in God’s love (even though He had to shake my entire world and rebuild it from the ground up.) I pray you find the answers you need from the Lord. xoxo
When you said that you feel like you’re in an out of body experience it sounds like a dissociation state. When I’ve gone through depression and anxiety I experience this.
I was literally in this faze of my life about a month ago and I had several moments of just breaking down and just not being able to carry on my day to day life and maybe a little over a week ago I decided to leave my job. It’s stressful finding a new job but I don’t regret my decision because I do feel a change in my life is something that I really need. You’re not alone in how you feel and just know it will get better.
Im crying now. I can relate to this so much. I’m 20 and just bought a house, I work 7 days a week- just a lot of things happening at once. Kind of feel like I’m just going through the motions. Not really living life. Life just feels super overwhelming and it’s all kind of a blur. It’s encouraging to hear others stories and know I’m not the only one.❤️
not knowing which career path to take is frustrating, I feel so behind. I've been struggling with this for a few years and I feel so much pressure to have my life figured out. Maybe I'm being too hard on myself, because I know everyone around me has been nothing but supportive, but it's gotten to the point where I'm extra sensitive and irritable. Sigh
Sara Abdin you arent the only one girl. Really dont know where to go from here right now. I am currently a full time carer for my grandparents but when that ends I really dont know where to go after that 😔 seeing all my friends getting married and having kids and careers kinda sucks 😔 Will be praying for you Sara
I feel you. I’ve been in a job that I’ve hated for the last five years. I went back to school (with money I didn’t have) hoping that would help. And I’m still waiting and trying to get to where I dream (and hope) to have my life and career.
Love the support you guys are giving eachother. Just be encouraged knowing that were all just trying to figure this thing called "life" out. All of our stories and timelines will look different, so don't compare your life to someone elses.Do what makes You happy and feel alive, not what others are doing. Keep your heads up guys!
Here's the thing it's taken me years to realize about myself. "I'm not stuck" you guys are not either. There's a way ahead. It took me many years (17) of working for the same employer to realize I"m more valuable they I (and they) realize. While I"m still working through my own personal growth the biggest change came when I was vulnerable enough to admit I felt stuck, asked for help. Now 2 years later I have a growing business. I still work for that same employer but I know that life is full of seasons. When you're in one you don't like do the following. 1. See good council 2. Look ahead with faith knowing that God always has bigger plans than what we know. 3. Take Small Steps to the bigger goal! Let's encourage one another to not feel stuck. That feeling is a lie and we get the opportunity to remind each other of whats to come.
1) you’re gorgeous even minutes after crying your eyes out 2) you’re totally not alone on the hazy - weird - foggy quarter life crisis situation. I’m in the same season of life and I just try to remind myself that it’s God’s way of preparing me for whatever is next. You’re killing it. Also LOL at the “just pray about it” comment 😂 I grew up as a PK and if I had a dime for every time I got that comment - I’d be set for life. 😂😂 Keep on keeping on and you’re going to be golden. Love you!
Hahaha right?! Im a christian and I even hate when people say "just pray about it" Im like ok Barbara thats nice and I agree, but sometimes you need something freaking tangible. Lol
I can totally relate to you. 25 years old and I don’t know what I’m doin’ right now. So, I don’t have any uplifting words for you. But thank you for sharing your feelings & being real with us. Sending you positive thoughts🖤
I found this channel yesterday and I am SO GLAD that I did. Authenticity makes me feel so welcomed and DOES HELP getting through rough patches. I am going through a BIG transition in my life and I am terrified and I could just feel everything flying by, I completely know what you mean when you talk about your "out of body" experiences, it is like your mind is doing something different than your actions and you aren't really focusing on your conversations or anything... it is a weird feeling and very hard to describe... I just finished my bachelors degree and I am about to start Med School for Occupational Therapy in ONE WEEK, this is a huge step and I am nervous and I just want to be ready for it. I think one thing that has helped me is to just remind myself that I will never feel ready for these big steps that are to come and I just have to make the most of each day leading up to it... Being scared to turn your whole life upside down is okay and in the time before that when you feel like you are going through the motions, that is like the calm before the storm! Things just fell into place for me when I was in the SAME spot you are in and God intervened and drew my path out for me, It wasn't super clear, and I wasn't sure, but I said "whatever I am just going to do this little idea and apply for OT School and see what happens," one thing led to another and I got accepted into an amazing program and now I am going! I am still nervous but with that takes trust. I think the best thing for anyone to do in that "going through the motions" situation is to be patient for God and Trust in him, also put yourself out there if an opportunity presents itself and if you feel a small push to do something do it! I think even if you are on the path that God lays out for you, it is possible to still doubt and be unsure ! That is part of human nature !
This was incredible. Everything that I have been feeling, you talked about. I love that you did this video even though you were vulnerable, this is by far the most real & honest thing I have seen on UA-cam
I love you Taylor ❤️❤️ Your heart is so good. I so appreciate the honesty in this video. I’ve been feeling the fogginess, and your heart for it is encouraging on it’s own.
Girlll, I feel you. Being young at this age is so confusing not knowing what you want and what feels right. It’s just this age and it’s hard to go through life like this
So true, but it doesn't stop here I hear. Lol my mom was telling me a few months ago she felt the same way, so I guess its not an age thing but I think maybe just more of a life transition period or a season where we have to learn some hard lessons ya know
A girl told me yesterday, that life isn't about finding a job. It's about finding a mission. When you're doing something for others, you'll always feel you have a purpose, and that peace of mind can't be replaced
You are definitely not alone girl. I broke down today... at work. It was a whole thing. I bottle stress up until one day something reallll little sets me off. I always think people think I'm crazy for getting so upset over something little, but really it's SO many different things bothering me up until the point of breaking. Then someone will ask me "Omg! What's wrong!?" it's like I don't even know what to tell them because I cannot pinpoint what I'm really upset over since there's just so much going on in my brain. I also deal with depression and anxiety... I don't really connect with people well in the real world because I just worry too much about what they think. Like I said, it's a wholeee damn thing. It's exhausting.
I get you. maybe find one person you really trust and have them hold you accountable to talk about things every once in awhile, maybe then things won't bottle up so much over time if you get them out little by little. just a thought!
Yes I know exactly what you mean girl. I go through phases of feeling like this too and it's such a weird, numb, emotionless yet so emotional feeling all at the same time and it can be really hard to process when you don't have anyone that can relate to you! 20's is such a weird age. I feel like I need to have everything figured out right now yet I also feel like I need to be living my life to the fullest and still act young and I feel like I've always had to be too responsible for me to be that way. I feel like I need to be making more money and I need to be in the position to buy a house and have my life figured out and I don't feel like I'm anywhere near that, but the funk goes away and you get yourself out of it. Something that really helps me is surrounding myself with people who make me want to succeed or make me excited about the future and what's to come. Setting goals for yourself can make you feel less far away....if that makes sense.
I get your point of view! I do think it helps for sure to have a good support system and people that motivate you around you. Appreciate your support. Keep your head up!
I’ve been there too! I think the haze I can fall into comes from trying to balance still feeling young and like I need guidance but also feeling like I have to be an adult and know it all. Between my career, bills, trying to have a social life and about to get married it’s all so overwhelming. It’s helpful to know we all go through it. Thanks for being so honest!
I appreciate your authenticity so much. I like that you show us your good days but also that everyone can go through a rough day/week. Throughout this whole semester I’ve felt like I’ve just been going through the motions and not really appreciating the little things or being 100% happy. I totally get what you’re going through, and you’re not alone! It’s totally ok not to be ok all the time, and we are here for you.
Holy crap can I relate to this video. Your words is what’s going through my mind and to hear you say all this is making me realize how much I can relate to this! I’m graduating from college with a degree and am now thinking of doing another degree with an entirely different thing. Thanks so much for sharing because I’m so behind of homework because I don’t know what I’m supposed to be doing with my life right now. I’m in my 20’s as well. Hope that kind of make sense...my thoughts are all over the place. THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS!
I get that way sometimes and I’m 34 and it has been happening since my 20’s. It happens in waves and I think it’s normal. The time flies by and being in a fog is definitely a good way to describe it. I’m not quite sure the reason but, from my perspective and in my opinion, I think there’s a lot of pressure once you get to a certain age. Society sort of starts it by setting expectations and then we are our own worst critics so we take that expectation and sort of take it on as our own standards, when really it’s not what WE think our lives should be. All I can say is just know that YOU are the only person who can live your best life. Just do what makes you happy. Do your best to be a good person and help uplift people around you and surround yourself with people who do the same. Always remember that others are always going to have their opinion on what your life should look like and what you should be spending your time doing but only you are in charge of that and don’t feel pressured to go in any one direction unless it’s something that will fulfill a purpose for you. (That was one long run on sentence, I’m just typing my babble as I think about it). I feel the exact same as you and it does happen. It’ll pass though. Just keep true to yourself and do what makes you happy and do what you think is right and never feel like you’re less because you’re not doing what people see as “the norm”. It’ll pass and get better, don’t let it get you down 😉❤️.
You go chica!! 💜💜 This is why your soo relatable.You’re not alone, everyone. I think all of us are really going through that whole quote of “If you want to make God laugh, tell Him your life plans, because he has bigger and better things planned then we fat expected.” It sucks, trust me it’s no smooth ride.
I've been through this and its awful! For me i felt like i was missing a part of me and my life. I felt emotionless and empty. I didn't cry for 6 whole months, I was so emotionless, I thought something was wrong with me. I don't believe I was depressed. But one week at my youth group I was worshiping and just felt a big weight off my chest. It was crazy! And I finally cried again. That was such a hard time. But now looking back it was totally a life lesson, to just keep swimming. I love you girl! And I am sure you will get out of this fog soon enough.
I really feel so much better after getting it off my chest! I think it was something God wanted me to bring into the light on youtube, because CLEARLY so many people can relate and feel the same way
I felt a lot of pressure in my early twenties to check items off the to-do list in my head. I frequently referred to my years post-grad as my second awkward middle school stage. I spent time with older friends who told me 25 was a significant mark of growth in their lives. Now that I'm 25 I see exactly what they were saying. Change and growth do not always feel good, in fact they frequently feel uncomfortable. At 23 I felt an overwhelming sense of options, so many that they felt paralyzing. It's ok to be confused. You don't need to have a solution or plan right now, be open to the uncomfortable feelings and try your best to embrace them.
Taylor... thank you for your honesty and openness... I want you to know that you are not alone and God is right there with you. Stay the course my friend. I am the same age that my parents were when they got married.... here I am just now starting to take the first step in becoming a pastor.... I'm praying for you. You are not alone
I can relate to this so much. I feel like just so numb most days. I can relate when you say on paper your life is great but you feel like your missing something. That is so my life! This is exactly where I am. This video definitely helps.
As long as knowing you're not alone helps, im glad I could do that! And many many others who commented on this video. Stay strong Kareina! (pretty name btw)
Hi Sweet Girl - It's such an honest and real video you just shared. I'm a 35 year old mom of 4 kids (ages 5-15) and I own my own small business. I completely agree with you that life, especially after marriage and kids come into the picture, is hectic and busy and crazy... but I continually make myself pause in the midst of it all and soak it all in... then nothing seems overwhelming and it makes me cherish and enjoy! I have learned to say no to some things that would add too much stress. Days can be crazy and certain season's of life will seem to fly by, but just be sure to take a step back often and take an overview of everything. There are many times in the middle of a loud and crazy suppertime or car ride, my husband and I will lock eyes and it takes me back to the years of dating and how we prayed this would be our life someday.. it sure reminds us of the blessing of this life... and it makes it not seem so overwhelming. I suppose the advice I am giving is to live your full life, but just remember to stop often and observe it and it won't seem so blurry. :) Hugs to you! Andrea
omg the whole "life looking good on paper" thing is so relatable. That was me a few months ago. Despite the fact that I had a great job, loving boyfriend, independence, health, and my education I just felt so empty and unhappy. I would cry all the time and not know why. I have a long history of depression so I figure it was just that popping up again, but it's so refreshing to have you come out and openly talk about this, I see that you posted this a while ago (I just got back from vacation so I'm catching up on my UA-cam lol) but hopefully you're doing a bit better now.
Thank you so much for making this video. Can't even explain how much I relate and how much it means to hear you talk about this so honestly. I'm in the same boat, in my twenties and I'm working towards my goals and life is going great. But I'm still stressed and really not feeling like myself, let alone the person I want to be. I find it hard to talk about my feelings. It's so comforting to know it's not just me. And I appreciate your honesty about prayer too. Sometimes the last thing you want to be told is to just pray. Prayer is important, but it's not an instant cure. If anyone read this whole comment, thank you and I wish you all the best in your life. Hugs :)
I feel like this came at the perfect time - I took a year off to have brain surgery and luckily I was able to transfer colleges this year. My family was so excited and now that I'm here I absolutely hate it and just found out I can't major in what I was supposed to anymore. I feel a gut inclination that I'm meant to be somewhere else. My mom suggested transferring to a school where I can complete my degree in my major but I just feel so emotionally exhausted and lost. I totally relate to how you are feeling and you continuously inspire me. Keep your head up girl! You are doing amazing things.
Yes I do actually feel this more often than normal, and I believe what I'm going through is actually depersonalization. I love you and I wish I could hug you. Hang in there! These feelings do pass and they will help you feel so thankful for when you feel "in the moment" 💛 I do suffer from depression and I know that you don't have to have depression to feel depressed. I hope you know how strong you are! Thanks for being open and honest. I hope you're having a good day Taylor 😊
I barley seen this, I’ve been a little busy trying to catch up on your videos. But I just wanna say that I feel this on so many levels. Yes it’s very hard to understand why you feel the way we feel right now. I always feel unsatisfied with myself and what’s going on. I’m glad I’m not alone and someone else feels the same way, because it’s hard to figure out what you want in life. Life gets tough but you’re doing so good for yourself. We can do it and thanks for the positivity in this video. 💛
This video is exactly how I’ve been feeling. I’ve never been able to say how I’m feeling and you just explained it perfectly for me ❤️ I’m not an emotional person and I completely understand feeling like you’re fine until you break down and realize you haven’t been dealing
Taylor, so many hugs! I’m currently going through a haze too. It’s bizarre, and I’m not an emotional person either, except LATELY. But what I appreciate about this season is that my values and happiness are being questioned. I’m finding things that never upset me before are upsetting me, and it’s making me get in touch with myself to figure out what is more important to me. What do I need to weed from my life to be able to open myself up to good things God wants for me. So I’m starting to appreciate the tiniest tiniest things. But that’s my journey right now. I hope you reflect while you’re in this season and know that we’re here to support you and encourage you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Taylor you’ve created such a realistic, genuine, and authentic community to come to and be in. Being real and open is hard nowadays but it’s so much better. I appreciate you to the fullest and all the things you’ve had to say in this video.
I sure hope so! Thats been my goal since day 1. I just want people to know that nobody really knows what they're doing, some people just fake it better. Were all trying to figure out life together!
Such an authentic and honest soul! Grateful that there are people like you sharing BOTH the good and the not so good moments. Takes some serious courage so I applaud this and you! Definitely subscribing!!
Almost everything you said in this video, I’ve felt since I was in 8th grade and I’m now in 10th and it’s just like the future scares the crap out of me. I’ve had several breakdowns because I just don’t know what I want in life and with that “just pray about it” comment is something my friend says to me all the time but sometimes it’s like he’s not going to tell straight up what he has planned for me and that’s what makes it so scary, life is scary when you don’t know your future or anything for that matter. I hope you get to feeling better, though. Have a good day :)
Praying about it is crucial, but I totally understand that if thats all people say it can start to feel discouraging. Sometimes you do just need someone to listen or be able to relate to what you're feeling. You're not alone!
I feel the same at times, I just finished school, and some days are great and others suck. Makes me wonder if my choice was right for me or not. But really makes me think of what else I could do to make it better and I can't really think of anything, this is all I'm good at, and I actually enjoy it most days. I believe the early 20's are a hard transition for some of us due to the fact that we are adults now and this is what we have to do for years to come if we want to live comfortably, and ultimately retire. I'm in the fog at times, and now seeing your video makes me think it's just a normal thing that we all go through. You will do great things, but I think god has a way of bringing us down to make us realize what we really have. Keep the videos coming.
I was one of the people that checked yes on your poll. Watching this video made me get teary eyed, I totally feel you gf! There's nothing wrong with my life whatsoever, it's going just the way that I want it to but for some reason it's like you said I am just not here going through the motions. I am so glad that you posted this though, I got so much inspiration from it even if you don't think so. So thank you!!! :)
Good im glad! Im finding that it redirected my priorities to the things that make me feel alive. Once you know what those things are, never stop doing them!
Sometimes our life is so blessed but from the inside we are still confused. This passed week I have learned that whatever one may go through and you see others going through (even harder situations) just be thankful. I keep reminding myself to be thankful and take life day by day. Sometimes you just need to let out a cry or have a vent session but you know what it helps! I literally tried to put on meditation music (which I never do), took a hike and a long drive just to be with myself and try to start feeling present. Maybe this may help you and others too! Stay positive beautiful 💕🙏🏻
Yes I love that! I think its so important to be self aware and to really take time away from the "world" to think about where you're really at. Thank you!
Exactly how I feel right now. I'm 20 and I'm going to graduate next year (computer science) however. Over the last few months my mindset towards my degree is changed. I'm terrifed about life after graduation as I don't know if I want to do this as a career anymore. My mind keeps wandering to other things like marketing and event planning thinking 'oh that looks really cool I'd like to do that' and it's really scaring me. I kind of wish I had these feeling in my first year of college. Basically I've too many interests in fields that aren't really related
Im the same way.... I think sometimes thats just an "entrepreneurial mindset" where every new opportunity looks more appealing than the current one I have. I totally get it. Its not that I "can't finish something" I just want to start all the new things, HOWEVER there has to be a point where you lock down on one thing (for now it doesn't have to be forever). Start doing one thing and maybe in a couple years you can change your career. Career changes are completely normal. Don't stress about finding one thing to do for your whole life, nobody said you can't do more than one!
I struggle with anxiety and it's an everyday battle I deal with, but I try to relax and tell myself it's gonna be ok. I'm agnostic and not really religious, so I understand that hearing "just pray about it" is kind of the last thing you wanna hear. We all have our own struggles we deal with, but at least we can all be here for each other and support one another 💙💜 Thanks for expressing your feelings Taylor and letting us know we're not alone
I can relate to this video.. just a couple weeks ago I was just telling my boyfriend that I didn’t really think I was gonna make it as a veterinarian because idk like I’ve just never been good in math or school in general so I was just scared and doubting myself a lot. I had an interview for a vet hospital and I got the job! So I’m there now and working at Peets coffee still. It made me feel a lot better because I feel like I have a chance but idk. What you said about having no emotion that’s literally how I feel all the time lol like I’ll literally have no emotion most of the time and it sucks because I know that’s not the way I am! 🤬 we’re just missing a piece to complete our puzzle and we have to be patient for it. Keep your head up girl 💕
I love that you are being led by the spirit and putting aside the lies of the devil. So many people can relate to this. God is using you in mighty ways Miss Taylor Nicole!
I'm almost 23 and I can relate so hard to this! I was literally trying to explain how I was feeling to my mom the other day and I don't think she really understood either. I'm so glad you posted this video because it can be really hard when people don't understand. It's encouraging to know that someone knows how I feel. very thankful for this video :) Also I just saw the video description and this "Every time I have an emotional night, the next day I just feel silly and like I overreacted" is exactly how I feel sometimes... :P
I couldnt agree with this more!! On paper i have everything i could want. An amazing boyfriend, family and friends. 2 amazing jobs i love and im able to go to college debt free. But i just dont feel satisfied. Nothing really makes me super excited or happy but im also not very sad. Just blah. And i try to explain it to people but they dont get it. Love you girl.
This is a real thing! It's called depersonalization and it's a symptom of depression and anxiety! Your feelings are so valid! I've experienced this before, and I know it sucks. Praying for you! ❤️
Keep on keeping on. I appreciate your realness. As a mom of two life does get so insane and I constantly struggle with getting caught up in mom stuff and I don’t take care of my own emotional/mental state of mind. I feel stuck in the routine just doing the same things over and over. This too shall pass. ❤️❤️❤️ love you!!
2nd quarter life fog has happened in the past year. I would say since I was your age it happened at least 3 times with a different emphasis on the *FOG* and it is tough. Your not alone in going through the type of season. Just remember we love you.
It's okay, Taylor! I've definitely been in a funk trying to figure out what I want to do with my career. I don't know, I guess I just feel like I should have everything figured out by now and not have to worry about money anymore. I also have been so negative towards myself and all that body positivity. I just get in a funk and hate my stomach and it's just a spiral.
You're perfectly fine just the way you are! Were all just trying to do our best in this world. Cling onto the people closest to you and let them love you and vice versa.
Love you! I totally get what you’re feeling, it’s hard to justify feeling upset when everything in life is going “well”. But just having the responsibilities of life is enough to need to cry...often haha 😊
I get what you’re saying Taylor. I’m not at that point at this moment, but I have definitely been there and I’m sure I’ll be back there soon. I’m a very emotional person as I stress and worry about everything. The prayer that I always say when I get overwhelmed and anxious about my future, or something happening now is: Lord take this anxiety/stress/worry from me and fill my heart with your peace. Meditate, breath, forget about it. I’ll be praying for ya! Oh...and believe me when I say you’re beautiful without makeup, I’m not just being nice. Love ya girl!
That out of body feeling is called dissociation it usually comes about when we are overwhelmed by feelings and not dealing with them. It’s the bodies defence mechanism to delay a reaction and suppress negative emotions
Thank you so much for this video. I recently found your channel and I've been binge watching your videos. My life is not going great and this and the past years have been so hard. I really love your videos and I'm feeding off of your passion and the vibe you give. I'm 27 years old and I have no idea what to do with my life. I started a college course that I don't really care about and fell into depression on my second year and I haven't been able to graduate on time. Life is indeed so crazy. You can suffer and suffer and also have happier days but you can die any given moment. I think you can only do your best and keep on appreciating life and the people around you. You are only 23 years old and you have so much going for you. I wish I had half of the things you have but like you said, I'm also super happy for people who are in a great place. I wish you all the best in life and success for your business.
Thank you so much, and I wish the best for you as well. Keep trying new things, thats what I did. I believe you'll find your passion and something that makes you feel alive, and once you do never stop doing that thing!
Thank you so much for your kind reply! I i'm from Finland and I actually recently applied to Starbucks and to some of our local coffee chains. I've never worked as a barista before and I really want to try it. :) Also, did you know that Finland consumes the largest amount of coffee in the world? :D So crazy.
I totally understand what you are going through! For me, I tend to get in those ruts where I just feel like life may be good...but something is still missing. And then I remember that Jesus is all that I need, and I’m just trying to fill my life with other things that don’t actually matter. I have to remind myself of this all the time... Also, I had one of these moments the other week because I moved cross-country, ended up not loving where I live, got pregnant (totally a good thing, just stressful since it’s my first!), totaled my car, and now our families want us to move back soon...so everything seems so crazy, and it can be so stressful. But I just keep trying to remind myself that God has it all under control, so I don’t have to stress myself out so much! I’m still not good at it...but seriously...one step at a time :)
You are so strong for putting this out there, And it does show to be very real and authentic. You’re not alone and so many people out there that feel that way. I know that feeling it’s weird to explain because I relate to what you’re saying about your normal character. It passes like you said. 🤗 💗💗💗
i've been thinking about authenticity on youtube a lot recently. my channel is generally pretty upbeat and positive, but lately i've been kind of out of it. and it's been getting hard for me to balance vulnerability and oversharing on this platform (and just in life in general). so all of that to say, i really appreciate your boldness in sharing this. everything was so well said and so relatable, even though you didn't go into much detail about what has put you in this emotional/mental state. thank you for this.
Of course Lucy. And I get you, sometimes on these platforms we feel a sort of responsibility to remain always "upbeat" to entertain people, but sometimes were just not feeling that and people have always appreciated when I was honest with them. Be yourself girl!
you have the most genuine soul and I’m totally the same way when it comes to pushing my issues back and acting as if others are more important or that I don’t need to think about them right now, this was a good video ❤️ love you
I think season of change is bringing up people wanting to change. I feel like when we want to change but don't know how or where but know we should it feels weird. I appreciate this video and your honesty. It doesn't matter what it looks like on paper. It matters how you feel. The sun always burns off the fog. Hopefully this snow finally melts and spring will be here. (fingers crossed, my goodness lol) and we will all bloom! Little wins are still wins. 😊
My husband and I motto is step one to step two. We were in a long distance relationship for 3 years internationally. It was incredibly frustrating feeling like we could not start our life together until we were in the same place but we are nearly married for 4 years now and are so happy. Again the fog will clear!
The best way I can describe how I’ve been feeling is that I’m half there. Like driving and talking to people I feel zoned out, but I’m in control. Just like half of me is in my body lol You honestly sound like you just need a break. Like well earned time to yourself. Thank you for the video Taylor, I hope you feel like your whole self soon! 💗
Thank you for always being real! ❤️ I've been crying more within the last week than I'd like to because I feel stuck in life, and have no idea what I want to do. I'm a sophomore in college and going into pre-nursing in the fall (I'm hella behind 🙃) but honestly I don't even know if that's what I want to do, so I feel like I'm wasting time and money. I want to do something creative with my life and i just don't know what that is yet :// I've been feeling lost about my future since I was a junior in hs, and tbh I just wish God would sit at the end of my bed and tell me what to do. Anyway, you're definitely not alone and I wish you the best of luck with everything!!
This out of body foggy experience happens to me when I am stressed. Good stress and bad stress. For me, I have realized that I am "checked out" during these stressful periods because I am trying to reach/overcome a major goal/milestone/mountain, but I am not there yet (which is the stressful part). Then I am back to being normal once I have reached/overcame that goal/milestone/mountain, but it is like my mind went into a mode to get me through "filler" things. Not that those "filler" things are meaningless, but they are not getting us to THE point. I think that it is very humbling to go through these because it is weird/uncomfortable, but also allows for growth...as we can see here in this video of you.
Girl it is sad how relatable this is, but I feel you ❤️ honestly you're such a hardworker and its so inspiring, but taking care of yourself and knowing when you need some self care is so so important. Being a student and finishing university soon I feel like I'm going through a crisis too, being in your 20s is such a weird time where I don't think anyone really feels grounded or put together! Here for you if you ever wanna chat x
You are right. You deserve to feel better. Find ways to feel differently. Feelings can be cultivated. You can nurture them, but it does take time. Take all that you have and find a way to bind that to good feelings creation. You are not dramatic. You can believe in what you feel. You have the right to stand up for what you feel and know is good. Find ways to feel great and to have some time for your well being. Your main priority can be yourself because God and everyone will be even more happier and inspired to see you in the best version of you. Your future children will say thank you for taking this seriously and have loving compassion for the deeper understanding that you are acquiring through this pain. You are only seeing that you are worth being the happiest version of yourself. People need you to be it so they can give it to themselves. It hurts but you can forgive yourself for not knowing what to do in every moment. You are a beautiful person and continue to be so. It is going to get easier if you want it. You can have it.
I understand living my life in a fog.. just checking off the to do list like you said. I’m always scattered brain... unfortunately that’s how I’ve been since I was 18 ish when my depression hit really bad and I just turned 27 this month. It’s been really hard but I do pray it gets better eventually, I’m starting counseling next week hoping that will teach me ways to cope with things and stuff... I know this may not have made any sense but thanks for posting this you are a strong woman!💜
Taylor I really admire the way you carry your faith. Keep on moving. God is with you. And you’re blessed. Mostly people don’t even have this revelation until they’re well into their 30’s.
I can completely understand and I’m there and been there before. I’m here for you and love ya girl. You’re strong and amazing and inspiring. I’ve felt stuck for awhile now.
I know you said this is just the thing to say. But this could most definitely be a time that God is wanting you to lean on Him. There are times that He wants us to go to Him, and know that He is the only source of true everlasting joy in life. Thank you for being real with us. You definitely are not alone.
Yes, total fog. And out of body viewing my life. Yesterday, I was watching what was happening in my life from like a distance... which felt so strange. I almost talked to my husband about it. But I’ve tried to before, and it ends up confusing and hurting him. I’d hate for him to feel like he’s done something wrong. I thought that I was just being a weirdo and disconnected. Thank you for talking about it.
I'm not necessarily in a fog or living life to the bestest between being pregnant and sick lol. I'm kind of just in a waiting period at the moment. However, I did recently get out of a fog! I just tried to change things in life, food, exercise, prayer (I relate so much to the getting almost frustrated with hearing it), and just trying to add happiness and health into my life! That's what helped me. I'm so thankful for you sharing this with us though! I hope things get better for you ASAP!❤️
Katrina Marie It's great to hear a victory story! I want to incorporate health as a greater priority in my life. I know that will help my outlook a lot. I always feel better when I am healthy.
Stephanie Torres Yes! My body is very sensitive to different foods too. So, even certain ones can drastically change my mood! Food is fuel for our bodies! I don't do the best with fueling mine but, I do try!
HI Taylor i just found your channel and have been binge watching to catch up. But I saw a new one and had to skip ahead. But I can completely relate just know you have so many awesome followers who can feel the same way and are all here for you and everyone. Thanks for being so real, (a lot of other you tubers I watch aren’t). That’s an awesome verse at the end as well as a great manta “one step at a time”. I know it would be a lot but it would be cool if you ended with different verses at the end of each video or once a week. Wishing you, your family and Garett all the best. Hugs
I would like to! I started doing verses on each video a long time ago and just got out of the habit but I really should get back into it. Thanks for the support!
Ok im only 4 minutes in but I totally relate to what your saying. I literally had a conversation with one of my managers at work about feeling unfulfilled and unsatisfied and we had a hour and half conversation about perspective and things to do to kind spark life up again make you have a adrenaline rush every once in a while. And being 21 im at a weird stage where half of my peers and high school friends are in relationships and married and having kids and the half is partying until 5am and then theres me a single 21 yr old who works 5 days a week with random days off so yes from the very start of this video i can definitely relate. A little too much relatable unfortunately 😔
Literally everyone is struggling, ya know? Life is beautiful and a wild, fun, mysterious gift, but part of that gift is pain. It is nice to see you being authentic! Something I have realized in my life is that you have to listen to your heart. You have to surrender to the reality that you need to let your heart guide the way. YOU choose how you live. If you want to live a slow paced life, you can! In the western world people live busy lives and let their minds control everything, and in the midst of this, people are left feeling unfulfilled and detached from their emotions. The solution is listening to your heart!! Slowing down is so so important. REAL, true living does not involve a fast paced life with long, detailed to-do lists. Maybe instead of focusing on what you have to do you could start focusing on how you want to be/feel. Ultimately how we FEEL about what we do is what is most important so focusing on that could help! Also- it is a-okay to feel confused so embrace it!! I literally am figuring out life second by second and just trying to enjoy myself. This comment isn't supposed to be a rant/instructions, but rather is just my experience and some things that I think might be helpful or uplifting!
Thank you so much for this. You literally put my feelings into words. I've felt the way you've been for so long and it's so hard to talk to people about it, because it's like being the depressed emo girl. But it's just. not depression. I was literally about to type it is just a haze as you were saying that! I feel you so much, girl.
I get you. Just take time to think and refocus on what your priorities are, and what makes you feel alive. Once you know what makes you feel alive, never stop doing that.
Hey gorgeous girl, praying for you ✝️ Always know you have a Father in heaven who instead of taking the load off your back when you’re going through hard times, will make you strong enough to be able to carry it!! So good how you reached out to others. It’s always good to know you’re not alone, and they can help you through it too. Find your passion in God girl! Trust trust trust His plan. Anxiety, worry, and fear are so powerful but you know One who is so much more powerful! Love you girl. So happy I found your channel Taylor :)
It sounds like you may have depersonalization disorder. It is described as an out of body experience as the main symptom of depersonalization is a feeling of detachment or a feeling that one is an observer of one's thoughts, feelings or body. You are awesome and really strong for being open about it.
I think that may have been the feeling I was experiencing at the time but seriously since posting the video I already felt so much better just getting it off my chest.
I needed this video! Thank you so much for being so genuine and honest with us! Love you and your channel so much! Also, a song that has helped give me a little peace of mind is "Be Still" by Hillsong Worship (the There is More album). I hope this song helps someone else the way it has helped me!!
I feel like compared to my past 2 years of my life where i had constant drama and difficulties... this year is looking up to me; i feel happier and less stressed. However, im in my 3rd year of my program and everyday I feel like im makin a mistake ... this career path doesnt suit me and im not good at it... but im so fargone to stop and give up now and im not someone who gives up. Im so scared that im goin to wake up everyday hatin myself tht I made the wrong decision.... Im so confused. :/ .... I really hope you get the answers you are lookin for and you get past this. I REALLY appreciate these type of sit down and real talk videos. :)
Hey Taylor, I am so thankful that you posted this. This was so brave of you and important for you to post this - I also will go through moments like this and then the next day feel like that was silly of me to feel that way. But our feelings are real and they are true to us. I am glad you are reaching out to your community and sharing. I recently made a business move and it's getting tough to not get into a negative zone when things don't pan out the way I think they should. This video was actually really encouraging to me! I am excited to continue watching and seeing the journey God has you on.
thank you for sharing this and for keeping it real, a lot of people (including myself) will be able to get comfort and inspiration from your video. love you and your videos 💕💖💘😍 xx
This resonated with me so much and I definitely needed to hear this. I am feeling this way but never knew how to articulate it and you definitely helped with that. I love you so much and get so excited when you post a video. Thank you for being so authentic. Your're amazing.
I feel and have felt this. There is a medical term to this called "Depersonalization disorder," and "Derealization." I felt this for 6 months when I was 16 and it was after a traumatic experience. I've also felt like this lately at age 24 where I don't know what my purpose is, or what life is for in general. You're not alone.
Yes I definitely feel the same way it’s definitely a quarter life crisis. My friend gave me amazing advice on how she got through. She told me that this is the point where God wants us to mature and understand the world so this mental haze will fade and not resurface later in life. So she advised me to pray to god but for the first time not pray for relief or pray as if you’re begging. She said pray as if god is your friend and you’re talking to him and telling him what your plans are and how he can play a role in aiding you. She explained that God is the creator however we are procreators so we should be praying to him in command telling him what the next move is growing confident in our relationship with god ! Then she said spend everyday doing the things that you think are in alignment with where you’re going as well as getting completely dressed and looking your best letting god know you take pride in being alive!
I had a season like this a few years ago and I had to just stop everything and say “God, what do you need from me?” I had been going through the motions and building a life I thought I wanted, but was constantly stressed and anxious. Once I surrendered my plans, my heart changed drastically and I have never been more at peace and confident in God’s love (even though He had to shake my entire world and rebuild it from the ground up.) I pray you find the answers you need from the Lord. xoxo
Good reminder, thank you!!
Taylor Nicole You’re welcome. We’re all in this together. God has our back. 💗
Gosh, I feel the same ... Since 23. I'm 25 now and feeling sooo lost. Hazy all day every day
How are you now
When you said that you feel like you’re in an out of body experience it sounds like a dissociation state. When I’ve gone through depression and anxiety I experience this.
I was literally in this faze of my life about a month ago and I had several moments of just breaking down and just not being able to carry on my day to day life and maybe a little over a week ago I decided to leave my job. It’s stressful finding a new job but I don’t regret my decision because I do feel a change in my life is something that I really need. You’re not alone in how you feel and just know it will get better.
Stay strong girl! I hope you find a job you really like!
Im crying now. I can relate to this so much. I’m 20 and just bought a house, I work 7 days a week- just a lot of things happening at once. Kind of feel like I’m just going through the motions. Not really living life. Life just feels super overwhelming and it’s all kind of a blur. It’s encouraging to hear others stories and know I’m not the only one.❤️
You're for sure not alone, I pray it starts to settle down and your fog clears soon. Stay strong Colleen!
not knowing which career path to take is frustrating, I feel so behind. I've been struggling with this for a few years and I feel so much pressure to have my life figured out. Maybe I'm being too hard on myself, because I know everyone around me has been nothing but supportive, but it's gotten to the point where I'm extra sensitive and irritable. Sigh
Sara Abdin you arent the only one girl. Really dont know where to go from here right now. I am currently a full time carer for my grandparents but when that ends I really dont know where to go after that 😔 seeing all my friends getting married and having kids and careers kinda sucks 😔 Will be praying for you Sara
I feel you. I’ve been in a job that I’ve hated for the last five years. I went back to school (with money I didn’t have) hoping that would help. And I’m still waiting and trying to get to where I dream (and hope) to have my life and career.
Love the support you guys are giving eachother. Just be encouraged knowing that were all just trying to figure this thing called "life" out. All of our stories and timelines will look different, so don't compare your life to someone elses.Do what makes You happy and feel alive, not what others are doing. Keep your heads up guys!
Taylor Nicole you are an amazing girl Taylor! Thank you for simply being you 😊 Your boyfriend is a very blessed man indeed ! 😊
Here's the thing it's taken me years to realize about myself. "I'm not stuck" you guys are not either. There's a way ahead. It took me many years (17) of working for the same employer to realize I"m more valuable they I (and they) realize. While I"m still working through my own personal growth the biggest change came when I was vulnerable enough to admit I felt stuck, asked for help. Now 2 years later I have a growing business. I still work for that same employer but I know that life is full of seasons. When you're in one you don't like do the following.
1. See good council
2. Look ahead with faith knowing that God always has bigger plans than what we know.
3. Take Small Steps to the bigger goal!
Let's encourage one another to not feel stuck. That feeling is a lie and we get the opportunity to remind each other of whats to come.
I 1000% understand that living life but feeling like you’re observing yourself at the same time, you did a great way of describing it
1) you’re gorgeous even minutes after crying your eyes out 2) you’re totally not alone on the hazy - weird - foggy quarter life crisis situation. I’m in the same season of life and I just try to remind myself that it’s God’s way of preparing me for whatever is next. You’re killing it. Also LOL at the “just pray about it” comment 😂 I grew up as a PK and if I had a dime for every time I got that comment - I’d be set for life. 😂😂 Keep on keeping on and you’re going to be golden. Love you!
Hahaha right?! Im a christian and I even hate when people say "just pray about it" Im like ok Barbara thats nice and I agree, but sometimes you need something freaking tangible. Lol
Taylor Nicole yassss. I fully believe in the power of prayer but sometimes ya just wish He would write it in the clouds!
I can totally relate to you. 25 years old and I don’t know what I’m doin’ right now. So, I don’t have any uplifting words for you. But thank you for sharing your feelings & being real with us. Sending you positive thoughts🖤
Thank you so much. Just keep trucking along! I believe everything falls into place eventually.
I found this channel yesterday and I am SO GLAD that I did. Authenticity makes me feel so welcomed and DOES HELP getting through rough patches. I am going through a BIG transition in my life and I am terrified and I could just feel everything flying by, I completely know what you mean when you talk about your "out of body" experiences, it is like your mind is doing something different than your actions and you aren't really focusing on your conversations or anything... it is a weird feeling and very hard to describe... I just finished my bachelors degree and I am about to start Med School for Occupational Therapy in ONE WEEK, this is a huge step and I am nervous and I just want to be ready for it. I think one thing that has helped me is to just remind myself that I will never feel ready for these big steps that are to come and I just have to make the most of each day leading up to it... Being scared to turn your whole life upside down is okay and in the time before that when you feel like you are going through the motions, that is like the calm before the storm! Things just fell into place for me when I was in the SAME spot you are in and God intervened and drew my path out for me, It wasn't super clear, and I wasn't sure, but I said "whatever I am just going to do this little idea and apply for OT School and see what happens," one thing led to another and I got accepted into an amazing program and now I am going! I am still nervous but with that takes trust. I think the best thing for anyone to do in that "going through the motions" situation is to be patient for God and Trust in him, also put yourself out there if an opportunity presents itself and if you feel a small push to do something do it! I think even if you are on the path that God lays out for you, it is possible to still doubt and be unsure ! That is part of human nature !
This was incredible. Everything that I have been feeling, you talked about. I love that you did this video even though you were vulnerable, this is by far the most real & honest thing I have seen on UA-cam
Im glad you could find some encouragement through this video. Just know you're never alone!
I love you Taylor ❤️❤️ Your heart is so good. I so appreciate the honesty in this video. I’ve been feeling the fogginess, and your heart for it is encouraging on it’s own.
You're too sweet. Thanks girl, appreciate your kind words!
We all appreciate you and we all stand with you girl
Girlll, I feel you. Being young at this age is so confusing not knowing what you want and what feels right. It’s just this age and it’s hard to go through life like this
So true, but it doesn't stop here I hear. Lol my mom was telling me a few months ago she felt the same way, so I guess its not an age thing but I think maybe just more of a life transition period or a season where we have to learn some hard lessons ya know
A girl told me yesterday, that life isn't about finding a job. It's about finding a mission. When you're doing something for others, you'll always feel you have a purpose, and that peace of mind can't be replaced
That is true!
You are definitely not alone girl. I broke down today... at work. It was a whole thing. I bottle stress up until one day something reallll little sets me off. I always think people think I'm crazy for getting so upset over something little, but really it's SO many different things bothering me up until the point of breaking. Then someone will ask me "Omg! What's wrong!?" it's like I don't even know what to tell them because I cannot pinpoint what I'm really upset over since there's just so much going on in my brain. I also deal with depression and anxiety... I don't really connect with people well in the real world because I just worry too much about what they think. Like I said, it's a wholeee damn thing. It's exhausting.
I get you. maybe find one person you really trust and have them hold you accountable to talk about things every once in awhile, maybe then things won't bottle up so much over time if you get them out little by little. just a thought!
Yes I know exactly what you mean girl. I go through phases of feeling like this too and it's such a weird, numb, emotionless yet so emotional feeling all at the same time and it can be really hard to process when you don't have anyone that can relate to you! 20's is such a weird age. I feel like I need to have everything figured out right now yet I also feel like I need to be living my life to the fullest and still act young and I feel like I've always had to be too responsible for me to be that way. I feel like I need to be making more money and I need to be in the position to buy a house and have my life figured out and I don't feel like I'm anywhere near that, but the funk goes away and you get yourself out of it. Something that really helps me is surrounding myself with people who make me want to succeed or make me excited about the future and what's to come. Setting goals for yourself can make you feel less far away....if that makes sense.
I get your point of view! I do think it helps for sure to have a good support system and people that motivate you around you. Appreciate your support. Keep your head up!
I’ve been there too! I think the haze I can fall into comes from trying to balance still feeling young and like I need guidance but also feeling like I have to be an adult and know it all. Between my career, bills, trying to have a social life and about to get married it’s all so overwhelming. It’s helpful to know we all go through it. Thanks for being so honest!
Its a lot for sure! I feel ya. Stay strong friend!
I appreciate your authenticity so much. I like that you show us your good days but also that everyone can go through a rough day/week. Throughout this whole semester I’ve felt like I’ve just been going through the motions and not really appreciating the little things or being 100% happy. I totally get what you’re going through, and you’re not alone! It’s totally ok not to be ok all the time, and we are here for you.
So true. Were all beautifully human and experience the same things, some people just hide it more than others.
Holy crap can I relate to this video. Your words is what’s going through my mind and to hear you say all this is making me realize how much I can relate to this! I’m graduating from college with a degree and am now thinking of doing another degree with an entirely different thing. Thanks so much for sharing because I’m so behind of homework because I don’t know what I’m supposed to be doing with my life right now. I’m in my 20’s as well. Hope that kind of make sense...my thoughts are all over the place. THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS!
I totally feel you! Just one step and day at a time, and you'll make progress!
This comment section is so positive, keep it up y'all; and you too Taylor!!
Right?! Im loving the comments!
I get that way sometimes and I’m 34 and it has been happening since my 20’s. It happens in waves and I think it’s normal. The time flies by and being in a fog is definitely a good way to describe it. I’m not quite sure the reason but, from my perspective and in my opinion, I think there’s a lot of pressure once you get to a certain age. Society sort of starts it by setting expectations and then we are our own worst critics so we take that expectation and sort of take it on as our own standards, when really it’s not what WE think our lives should be. All I can say is just know that YOU are the only person who can live your best life. Just do what makes you happy. Do your best to be a good person and help uplift people around you and surround yourself with people who do the same. Always remember that others are always going to have their opinion on what your life should look like and what you should be spending your time doing but only you are in charge of that and don’t feel pressured to go in any one direction unless it’s something that will fulfill a purpose for you. (That was one long run on sentence, I’m just typing my babble as I think about it). I feel the exact same as you and it does happen. It’ll pass though. Just keep true to yourself and do what makes you happy and do what you think is right and never feel like you’re less because you’re not doing what people see as “the norm”. It’ll pass and get better, don’t let it get you down 😉❤️.
Thank you for taking the time to type all that, I really do appreciate it.
Taylor Nicole you’re very welcome. Feel better, it’ll pass. ❤️
You go chica!! 💜💜
This is why your soo relatable.You’re not alone, everyone. I think all of us are really going through that whole quote of “If you want to make God laugh, tell Him your life plans, because he has bigger and better things planned then we fat expected.”
It sucks, trust me it’s no smooth ride.
So true! God knows what he's doing and we just have to trust that!
I feel you! I just left my master career.... and I was just feeling like you. It was really weird, i couldnt know what i was doing and why.
I've been through this and its awful! For me i felt like i was missing a part of me and my life. I felt emotionless and empty. I didn't cry for 6 whole months, I was so emotionless, I thought something was wrong with me. I don't believe I was depressed. But one week at my youth group I was worshiping and just felt a big weight off my chest. It was crazy! And I finally cried again. That was such a hard time. But now looking back it was totally a life lesson, to just keep swimming. I love you girl! And I am sure you will get out of this fog soon enough.
I really feel so much better after getting it off my chest! I think it was something God wanted me to bring into the light on youtube, because CLEARLY so many people can relate and feel the same way
I felt a lot of pressure in my early twenties to check items off the to-do list in my head. I frequently referred to my years post-grad as my second awkward middle school stage. I spent time with older friends who told me 25 was a significant mark of growth in their lives. Now that I'm 25 I see exactly what they were saying. Change and growth do not always feel good, in fact they frequently feel uncomfortable. At 23 I felt an overwhelming sense of options, so many that they felt paralyzing. It's ok to be confused. You don't need to have a solution or plan right now, be open to the uncomfortable feelings and try your best to embrace them.
Thank you for sharing that with me Carina. I appreciate it!
Taylor... thank you for your honesty and openness... I want you to know that you are not alone and God is right there with you.
Stay the course my friend.
I am the same age that my parents were when they got married.... here I am just now starting to take the first step in becoming a pastor....
I'm praying for you. You are not alone
Thank you! And to you too, keep on keeping on! Your story is not going to be the same as every else!
I can relate to this so much. I feel like just so numb most days. I can relate when you say on paper your life is great but you feel like your missing something. That is so my life! This is exactly where I am. This video definitely helps.
As long as knowing you're not alone helps, im glad I could do that! And many many others who commented on this video. Stay strong Kareina! (pretty name btw)
It definitely helps.
Thank you. :)
This happens to me every year.. sometimes every day. Life.
Hi Sweet Girl - It's such an honest and real video you just shared. I'm a 35 year old mom of 4 kids (ages 5-15) and I own my own small business. I completely agree with you that life, especially after marriage and kids come into the picture, is hectic and busy and crazy... but I continually make myself pause in the midst of it all and soak it all in... then nothing seems overwhelming and it makes me cherish and enjoy! I have learned to say no to some things that would add too much stress. Days can be crazy and certain season's of life will seem to fly by, but just be sure to take a step back often and take an overview of everything. There are many times in the middle of a loud and crazy suppertime or car ride, my husband and I will lock eyes and it takes me back to the years of dating and how we prayed this would be our life someday.. it sure reminds us of the blessing of this life... and it makes it not seem so overwhelming. I suppose the advice I am giving is to live your full life, but just remember to stop often and observe it and it won't seem so blurry. :) Hugs to you! Andrea
That is really good advice, thank you Andrea.
omg the whole "life looking good on paper" thing is so relatable. That was me a few months ago. Despite the fact that I had a great job, loving boyfriend, independence, health, and my education I just felt so empty and unhappy. I would cry all the time and not know why. I have a long history of depression so I figure it was just that popping up again, but it's so refreshing to have you come out and openly talk about this, I see that you posted this a while ago (I just got back from vacation so I'm catching up on my UA-cam lol) but hopefully you're doing a bit better now.
I am! thank you!! Hope you had a great vacation!
I'm so glad to hear that! and I did thank you :)
Thank you so much for making this video. Can't even explain how much I relate and how much it means to hear you talk about this so honestly. I'm in the same boat, in my twenties and I'm working towards my goals and life is going great. But I'm still stressed and really not feeling like myself, let alone the person I want to be. I find it hard to talk about my feelings. It's so comforting to know it's not just me. And I appreciate your honesty about prayer too. Sometimes the last thing you want to be told is to just pray. Prayer is important, but it's not an instant cure. If anyone read this whole comment, thank you and I wish you all the best in your life. Hugs :)
Stay strong girl, things will get better and your courage to carry on will be worth it I totally believe!
I feel like this came at the perfect time - I took a year off to have brain surgery and luckily I was able to transfer colleges this year. My family was so excited and now that I'm here I absolutely hate it and just found out I can't major in what I was supposed to anymore. I feel a gut inclination that I'm meant to be somewhere else. My mom suggested transferring to a school where I can complete my degree in my major but I just feel so emotionally exhausted and lost. I totally relate to how you are feeling and you continuously inspire me. Keep your head up girl! You are doing amazing things.
You strong girl, YOU will do amazing things. Keep on trucking on! Im positive it'll become clear to you.
Yes I do actually feel this more often than normal, and I believe what I'm going through is actually depersonalization. I love you and I wish I could hug you. Hang in there! These feelings do pass and they will help you feel so thankful for when you feel "in the moment" 💛 I do suffer from depression and I know that you don't have to have depression to feel depressed. I hope you know how strong you are! Thanks for being open and honest. I hope you're having a good day Taylor 😊
Thank you!! You have a good day also!
I barley seen this, I’ve been a little busy trying to catch up on your videos. But I just wanna say that I feel this on so many levels. Yes it’s very hard to understand why you feel the way we feel right now. I always feel unsatisfied with myself and what’s going on. I’m glad I’m not alone and someone else feels the same way, because it’s hard to figure out what you want in life. Life gets tough but you’re doing so good for yourself. We can do it and thanks for the positivity in this video. 💛
This video is exactly how I’ve been feeling. I’ve never been able to say how I’m feeling and you just explained it perfectly for me ❤️ I’m not an emotional person and I completely understand feeling like you’re fine until you break down and realize you haven’t been dealing
Its so common for a lot of people!
Taylor, so many hugs! I’m currently going through a haze too. It’s bizarre, and I’m not an emotional person either, except LATELY. But what I appreciate about this season is that my values and happiness are being questioned. I’m finding things that never upset me before are upsetting me, and it’s making me get in touch with myself to figure out what is more important to me. What do I need to weed from my life to be able to open myself up to good things God wants for me. So I’m starting to appreciate the tiniest tiniest things. But that’s my journey right now. I hope you reflect while you’re in this season and know that we’re here to support you and encourage you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree, its hard to go through but I think it really helps you realize what is important to you and what to keep a priority in your life!
Taylor you’ve created such a realistic, genuine, and authentic community to come to and be in. Being real and open is hard nowadays but it’s so much better. I appreciate you to the fullest and all the things you’ve had to say in this video.
I sure hope so! Thats been my goal since day 1. I just want people to know that nobody really knows what they're doing, some people just fake it better. Were all trying to figure out life together!
Such an authentic and honest soul! Grateful that there are people like you sharing BOTH the good and the not so good moments. Takes some serious courage so I applaud this and you! Definitely subscribing!!
Almost everything you said in this video, I’ve felt since I was in 8th grade and I’m now in 10th and it’s just like the future scares the crap out of me. I’ve had several breakdowns because I just don’t know what I want in life and with that “just pray about it” comment is something my friend says to me all the time but sometimes it’s like he’s not going to tell straight up what he has planned for me and that’s what makes it so scary, life is scary when you don’t know your future or anything for that matter. I hope you get to feeling better, though. Have a good day :)
Praying about it is crucial, but I totally understand that if thats all people say it can start to feel discouraging. Sometimes you do just need someone to listen or be able to relate to what you're feeling. You're not alone!
I feel the same at times, I just finished school, and some days are great and others suck. Makes me wonder if my choice was right for me or not. But really makes me think of what else I could do to make it better and I can't really think of anything, this is all I'm good at, and I actually enjoy it most days. I believe the early 20's are a hard transition for some of us due to the fact that we are adults now and this is what we have to do for years to come if we want to live comfortably, and ultimately retire. I'm in the fog at times, and now seeing your video makes me think it's just a normal thing that we all go through. You will do great things, but I think god has a way of bringing us down to make us realize what we really have.
Keep the videos coming.
So true. Thanks for watching!
I was one of the people that checked yes on your poll. Watching this video made me get teary eyed, I totally feel you gf! There's nothing wrong with my life whatsoever, it's going just the way that I want it to but for some reason it's like you said I am just not here going through the motions. I am so glad that you posted this though, I got so much inspiration from it even if you don't think so. So thank you!!! :)
Good im glad! Im finding that it redirected my priorities to the things that make me feel alive. Once you know what those things are, never stop doing them!
Sometimes our life is so blessed but from the inside we are still confused. This passed week I have learned that whatever one may go through and you see others going through (even harder situations) just be thankful. I keep reminding myself to be thankful and take life day by day. Sometimes you just need to let out a cry or have a vent session but you know what it helps! I literally tried to put on meditation music (which I never do), took a hike and a long drive just to be with myself and try to start feeling present. Maybe this may help you and others too! Stay positive beautiful 💕🙏🏻
Yes I love that! I think its so important to be self aware and to really take time away from the "world" to think about where you're really at. Thank you!
Taylor Nicole thanks girl! I hope we can all start feeling ourselves again and get out of this fog! 💕🙏🏻
Exactly how I feel right now. I'm 20 and I'm going to graduate next year (computer science) however. Over the last few months my mindset towards my degree is changed. I'm terrifed about life after graduation as I don't know if I want to do this as a career anymore. My mind keeps wandering to other things like marketing and event planning thinking 'oh that looks really cool I'd like to do that' and it's really scaring me. I kind of wish I had these feeling in my first year of college. Basically I've too many interests in fields that aren't really related
Im the same way.... I think sometimes thats just an "entrepreneurial mindset" where every new opportunity looks more appealing than the current one I have. I totally get it. Its not that I "can't finish something" I just want to start all the new things, HOWEVER there has to be a point where you lock down on one thing (for now it doesn't have to be forever). Start doing one thing and maybe in a couple years you can change your career. Career changes are completely normal. Don't stress about finding one thing to do for your whole life, nobody said you can't do more than one!
You’re not alone. Checking off the “to do list” was easy for me. And now I’m lost. I guess we all hit a stage where our path isn’t clear. Stay strong!
So true. You too girl!
I struggle with anxiety and it's an everyday battle I deal with, but I try to relax and tell myself it's gonna be ok. I'm agnostic and not really religious, so I understand that hearing "just pray about it" is kind of the last thing you wanna hear. We all have our own struggles we deal with, but at least we can all be here for each other and support one another 💙💜 Thanks for expressing your feelings Taylor and letting us know we're not alone
I agree, Just knowing people understand and are there for you sometimes is all you need to hear. Stay strong!
I can relate to this video.. just a couple weeks ago I was just telling my boyfriend that I didn’t really think I was gonna make it as a veterinarian because idk like I’ve just never been good in math or school in general so I was just scared and doubting myself a lot. I had an interview for a vet hospital and I got the job! So I’m there now and working at Peets coffee still. It made me feel a lot better because I feel like I have a chance but idk. What you said about having no emotion that’s literally how I feel all the time lol like I’ll literally have no emotion most of the time and it sucks because I know that’s not the way I am! 🤬 we’re just missing a piece to complete our puzzle and we have to be patient for it.
Keep your head up girl 💕
You too girl!
I love that you are being led by the spirit and putting aside the lies of the devil. So many people can relate to this. God is using you in mighty ways Miss Taylor Nicole!
You're too kind, thank you Hannah!
I'm almost 23 and I can relate so hard to this! I was literally trying to explain how I was feeling to my mom the other day and I don't think she really understood either. I'm so glad you posted this video because it can be really hard when people don't understand. It's encouraging to know that someone knows how I feel. very thankful for this video :)
Also I just saw the video description and this "Every time I have an emotional night, the next day I just feel silly and like I overreacted" is exactly how I feel sometimes... :P
I ALWAYS feel like I overreacted the next day, but our feelings are valid and we can't ignore them. Keep your head up girl!
I couldnt agree with this more!! On paper i have everything i could want. An amazing boyfriend, family and friends. 2 amazing jobs i love and im able to go to college debt free. But i just dont feel satisfied. Nothing really makes me super excited or happy but im also not very sad. Just blah. And i try to explain it to people but they dont get it. Love you girl.
probably just a season of transition for you. I hope it starts to look up soon!
This is a real thing! It's called depersonalization and it's a symptom of depression and anxiety! Your feelings are so valid! I've experienced this before, and I know it sucks. Praying for you! ❤️
Thank you Jenna!
I appreciate you being real with all of us. I hate seeing you crying but I’m so happy you have a grounded faith. It cures everything
Well thank you!
Keep on keeping on.
I appreciate your realness.
As a mom of two life does get so insane and I constantly struggle with getting caught up in mom stuff and I don’t take care of my own emotional/mental state of mind. I feel stuck in the routine just doing the same things over and over. This too shall pass. ❤️❤️❤️ love you!!
Thanks girl, props to you! I have high respect for mothers, you guys work hard!! Keep on keeping on, yourself!
2nd quarter life fog has happened in the past year. I would say since I was your age it happened at least 3 times with a different emphasis on the *FOG* and it is tough. Your not alone in going through the type of season. Just remember we love you.
Its rough, and I know its something that'll happen again. Just a learning season of life!
It's okay, Taylor! I've definitely been in a funk trying to figure out what I want to do with my career. I don't know, I guess I just feel like I should have everything figured out by now and not have to worry about money anymore. I also have been so negative towards myself and all that body positivity. I just get in a funk and hate my stomach and it's just a spiral.
You're perfectly fine just the way you are! Were all just trying to do our best in this world. Cling onto the people closest to you and let them love you and vice versa.
Love you! I totally get what you’re feeling, it’s hard to justify feeling upset when everything in life is going “well”. But just having the responsibilities of life is enough to need to cry...often haha 😊
Love you too! haha true... I just freaking hate crying so it seems like such a big ordeal every time
I get what you’re saying Taylor. I’m not at that point at this moment, but I have definitely been there and I’m sure I’ll be back there soon. I’m a very emotional person as I stress and worry about everything. The prayer that I always say when I get overwhelmed and anxious about my future, or something happening now is: Lord take this anxiety/stress/worry from me and fill my heart with your peace.
Meditate, breath, forget about it. I’ll be praying for ya! Oh...and believe me when I say you’re beautiful without makeup, I’m not just being nice. Love ya girl!
Well thanks sweet girl! I appreciate it!
That out of body feeling is called dissociation it usually comes about when we are overwhelmed by feelings and not dealing with them. It’s the bodies defence mechanism to delay a reaction and suppress negative emotions
Thank you so much for this video. I recently found your channel and I've been binge watching your videos. My life is not going great and this and the past years have been so hard. I really love your videos and I'm feeding off of your passion and the vibe you give. I'm 27 years old and I have no idea what to do with my life. I started a college course that I don't really care about and fell into depression on my second year and I haven't been able to graduate on time. Life is indeed so crazy. You can suffer and suffer and also have happier days but you can die any given moment. I think you can only do your best and keep on appreciating life and the people around you. You are only 23 years old and you have so much going for you. I wish I had half of the things you have but like you said, I'm also super happy for people who are in a great place. I wish you all the best in life and success for your business.
Thank you so much, and I wish the best for you as well. Keep trying new things, thats what I did. I believe you'll find your passion and something that makes you feel alive, and once you do never stop doing that thing!
Thank you so much for your kind reply! I i'm from Finland and I actually recently applied to Starbucks and to some of our local coffee chains. I've never worked as a barista before and I really want to try it. :) Also, did you know that Finland consumes the largest amount of coffee in the world? :D So crazy.
I totally understand what you are going through! For me, I tend to get in those ruts where I just feel like life may be good...but something is still missing. And then I remember that Jesus is all that I need, and I’m just trying to fill my life with other things that don’t actually matter. I have to remind myself of this all the time...
Also, I had one of these moments the other week because I moved cross-country, ended up not loving where I live, got pregnant (totally a good thing, just stressful since it’s my first!), totaled my car, and now our families want us to move back soon...so everything seems so crazy, and it can be so stressful. But I just keep trying to remind myself that God has it all under control, so I don’t have to stress myself out so much! I’m still not good at it...but seriously...one step at a time :)
So true. Good reminder!
❤️this too shall pass, I’m 51. And I’ve been thru just about anything that you can think of, and I am still here❤️.
You little warrior. Proud of you! And appreciate the support :)
Your definitely not alone. I love seeing you be soo real. Keep being you and being transparent cause its amazing
Thank you Tonya! Appreciate it!
You are so strong for putting this out there,
And it does show to be very real and authentic. You’re not alone and so many people out there that feel that way. I know that feeling it’s weird to explain because I relate to what you’re saying about your normal character. It passes like you said. 🤗 💗💗💗
So true, I know its just a temporary season, but its one of those things thats going to teach us things the hard way. appreciate your support!
I feel EXACTLY how you feel rn! 😭❤️ Every single thing you said, i totally agree❤️ You're not alone! Love you!
thanks girl!
i've been thinking about authenticity on youtube a lot recently. my channel is generally pretty upbeat and positive, but lately i've been kind of out of it. and it's been getting hard for me to balance vulnerability and oversharing on this platform (and just in life in general). so all of that to say, i really appreciate your boldness in sharing this. everything was so well said and so relatable, even though you didn't go into much detail about what has put you in this emotional/mental state. thank you for this.
Of course Lucy. And I get you, sometimes on these platforms we feel a sort of responsibility to remain always "upbeat" to entertain people, but sometimes were just not feeling that and people have always appreciated when I was honest with them. Be yourself girl!
Oh I needed this!!!! Totally my life right now!!! 24 going on 25.. praying it gets better soon!!!! 😖
you have the most genuine soul and I’m totally the same way when it comes to pushing my issues back and acting as if others are more important or that I don’t need to think about them right now, this was a good video ❤️ love you
Thanks for watching sweet girl!
I think season of change is bringing up people wanting to change. I feel like when we want to change but don't know how or where but know we should it feels weird. I appreciate this video and your honesty. It doesn't matter what it looks like on paper. It matters how you feel. The sun always burns off the fog. Hopefully this snow finally melts and spring will be here. (fingers crossed, my goodness lol) and we will all bloom! Little wins are still wins. 😊
My husband and I motto is step one to step two. We were in a long distance relationship for 3 years internationally. It was incredibly frustrating feeling like we could not start our life together until we were in the same place but we are nearly married for 4 years now and are so happy. Again the fog will clear!
So true, thank you heather!
The best way I can describe how I’ve been feeling is that I’m half there. Like driving and talking to people I feel zoned out, but I’m in control. Just like half of me is in my body lol
You honestly sound like you just need a break. Like well earned time to yourself.
Thank you for the video Taylor, I hope you feel like your whole self soon! 💗
So true, thats a good way to describe the feeling!
Thank you for always being real! ❤️ I've been crying more within the last week than I'd like to because I feel stuck in life, and have no idea what I want to do. I'm a sophomore in college and going into pre-nursing in the fall (I'm hella behind 🙃) but honestly I don't even know if that's what I want to do, so I feel like I'm wasting time and money. I want to do something creative with my life and i just don't know what that is yet :// I've been feeling lost about my future since I was a junior in hs, and tbh I just wish God would sit at the end of my bed and tell me what to do. Anyway, you're definitely not alone and I wish you the best of luck with everything!!
thank you and to you too! Keep going and im sure things will become clear over time!
You’re not alone ❤️
This out of body foggy experience happens to me when I am stressed. Good stress and bad stress. For me, I have realized that I am "checked out" during these stressful periods because I am trying to reach/overcome a major goal/milestone/mountain, but I am not there yet (which is the stressful part). Then I am back to being normal once I have reached/overcame that goal/milestone/mountain, but it is like my mind went into a mode to get me through "filler" things. Not that those "filler" things are meaningless, but they are not getting us to THE point. I think that it is very humbling to go through these because it is weird/uncomfortable, but also allows for growth...as we can see here in this video of you.
That make sense, maybe that is what is happening. Good point!
Girl it is sad how relatable this is, but I feel you ❤️ honestly you're such a hardworker and its so inspiring, but taking care of yourself and knowing when you need some self care is so so important. Being a student and finishing university soon I feel like I'm going through a crisis too, being in your 20s is such a weird time where I don't think anyone really feels grounded or put together! Here for you if you ever wanna chat x
You sweet thang! Yes it definitely is just the weirdest time of life. Appreciate your encouragement :)
You are right. You deserve to feel better. Find ways to feel differently. Feelings can be cultivated. You can nurture them, but it does take time. Take all that you have and find a way to bind that to good feelings creation. You are not dramatic. You can believe in what you feel. You have the right to stand up for what you feel and know is good. Find ways to feel great and to have some time for your well being. Your main priority can be yourself because God and everyone will be even more happier and inspired to see you in the best version of you. Your future children will say thank you for taking this seriously and have loving compassion for the deeper understanding that you are acquiring through this pain. You are only seeing that you are worth being the happiest version of yourself. People need you to be it so they can give it to themselves. It hurts but you can forgive yourself for not knowing what to do in every moment. You are a beautiful person and continue to be so. It is going to get easier if you want it. You can have it.
I understand living my life in a fog.. just checking off the to do list like you said. I’m always scattered brain... unfortunately that’s how I’ve been since I was 18 ish when my depression hit really bad and I just turned 27 this month. It’s been really hard but I do pray it gets better eventually, I’m starting counseling next week hoping that will teach me ways to cope with things and stuff... I know this may not have made any sense but thanks for posting this you are a strong woman!💜
Of course it made sense. I think counseling will really help, no shame in that! Hope it gets better for you!
Taylor I really admire the way you carry your faith. Keep on moving. God is with you. And you’re blessed. Mostly people don’t even have this revelation until they’re well into their 30’s.
Thank you, I appreciate your support!
I can completely understand and I’m there and been there before. I’m here for you and love ya girl. You’re strong and amazing and inspiring. I’ve felt stuck for awhile now.
Thank you, and you too. You can do anything you set your mind to!
I know you said this is just the thing to say. But this could most definitely be a time that God is wanting you to lean on Him. There are times that He wants us to go to Him, and know that He is the only source of true everlasting joy in life. Thank you for being real with us. You definitely are not alone.
Yes, total fog. And out of body viewing my life. Yesterday, I was watching what was happening in my life from like a distance... which felt so strange. I almost talked to my husband about it. But I’ve tried to before, and it ends up confusing and hurting him. I’d hate for him to feel like he’s done something wrong. I thought that I was just being a weirdo and disconnected. Thank you for talking about it.
A lot of people describe it as disassociation or depersonalization disorder, maybe do some research into that and see if it helps!
I'm not necessarily in a fog or living life to the bestest between being pregnant and sick lol. I'm kind of just in a waiting period at the moment. However, I did recently get out of a fog! I just tried to change things in life, food, exercise, prayer (I relate so much to the getting almost frustrated with hearing it), and just trying to add happiness and health into my life! That's what helped me. I'm so thankful for you sharing this with us though! I hope things get better for you ASAP!❤️
I already feel so much better after getting it off my chest. Sometimes you just need to say it out loud before anything will progress. Thank you!!
Right! Good! I'm glad!❤
Katrina Marie It's great to hear a victory story! I want to incorporate health as a greater priority in my life. I know that will help my outlook a lot. I always feel better when I am healthy.
Stephanie Torres Yes! My body is very sensitive to different foods too. So, even certain ones can drastically change my mood! Food is fuel for our bodies! I don't do the best with fueling mine but, I do try!
Wow I’m feeling the same exact way. I am not satisfied and feel like I’m not myself. It feels like I’m faking my way through my own life...
HI Taylor i just found your channel and have been binge watching to catch up. But I saw a new one and had to skip ahead. But I can completely relate just know you have so many awesome followers who can feel the same way and are all here for you and everyone. Thanks for being so real, (a lot of other you tubers I watch aren’t). That’s an awesome verse at the end as well as a great manta “one step at a time”. I know it would be a lot but it would be cool if you ended with different verses at the end of each video or once a week. Wishing you, your family and Garett all the best. Hugs
I would like to! I started doing verses on each video a long time ago and just got out of the habit but I really should get back into it. Thanks for the support!
Ok im only 4 minutes in but I totally relate to what your saying. I literally had a conversation with one of my managers at work about feeling unfulfilled and unsatisfied and we had a hour and half conversation about perspective and things to do to kind spark life up again make you have a adrenaline rush every once in a while. And being 21 im at a weird stage where half of my peers and high school friends are in relationships and married and having kids and the half is partying until 5am and then theres me a single 21 yr old who works 5 days a week with random days off so yes from the very start of this video i can definitely relate. A little too much relatable unfortunately 😔
Haha you sound like me when I was 21!
Thanks for sharing your heart, Taylor! God will use you through this video! 💙
Thanks for watching!
Literally everyone is struggling, ya know? Life is beautiful and a wild, fun, mysterious gift, but part of that gift is pain. It is nice to see you being authentic! Something I have realized in my life is that you have to listen to your heart. You have to surrender to the reality that you need to let your heart guide the way. YOU choose how you live. If you want to live a slow paced life, you can! In the western world people live busy lives and let their minds control everything, and in the midst of this, people are left feeling unfulfilled and detached from their emotions. The solution is listening to your heart!! Slowing down is so so important. REAL, true living does not involve a fast paced life with long, detailed to-do lists. Maybe instead of focusing on what you have to do you could start focusing on how you want to be/feel. Ultimately how we FEEL about what we do is what is most important so focusing on that could help! Also- it is a-okay to feel confused so embrace it!! I literally am figuring out life second by second and just trying to enjoy myself. This comment isn't supposed to be a rant/instructions, but rather is just my experience and some things that I think might be helpful or uplifting!
Good input. Thank you Katie!
Thank you so much for this. You literally put my feelings into words. I've felt the way you've been for so long and it's so hard to talk to people about it, because it's like being the depressed emo girl. But it's just. not depression. I was literally about to type it is just a haze as you were saying that! I feel you so much, girl.
I get you. Just take time to think and refocus on what your priorities are, and what makes you feel alive. Once you know what makes you feel alive, never stop doing that.
Hey gorgeous girl, praying for you ✝️ Always know you have a Father in heaven who instead of taking the load off your back when you’re going through hard times, will make you strong enough to be able to carry it!! So good how you reached out to others. It’s always good to know you’re not alone, and they can help you through it too. Find your passion in God girl! Trust trust trust His plan. Anxiety, worry, and fear are so powerful but you know One who is so much more powerful! Love you girl. So happy I found your channel Taylor :)
Good reminder, thank you Ashlyn!
It sounds like you may have depersonalization disorder. It is described as an out of body experience as the main symptom of depersonalization is a feeling of detachment or a feeling that one is an observer of one's thoughts, feelings or body. You are awesome and really strong for being open about it.
I think that may have been the feeling I was experiencing at the time but seriously since posting the video I already felt so much better just getting it off my chest.
It is good to talk it out sometimes but happy you feel so much better. :)
Thank you for sharing this girl ❤️ love how real you’re being and know that you’re never alone!
Thank you Claire, you are so sweet always!
I needed this video! Thank you so much for being so genuine and honest with us! Love you and your channel so much! Also, a song that has helped give me a little peace of mind is "Be Still" by Hillsong Worship (the There is More album). I hope this song helps someone else the way it has helped me!!
I LOVE THAT SONG so good
I feel like compared to my past 2 years of my life where i had constant drama and difficulties... this year is looking up to me; i feel happier and less stressed. However, im in my 3rd year of my program and everyday I feel like im makin a mistake ... this career path doesnt suit me and im not good at it... but im so fargone to stop and give up now and im not someone who gives up. Im so scared that im goin to wake up everyday hatin myself tht I made the wrong decision.... Im so confused. :/ .... I really hope you get the answers you are lookin for and you get past this. I REALLY appreciate these type of sit down and real talk videos. :)
Just keep listening to yourself! It might get easier or you may have to make a different decision! Just follow what you think is best!
"Towers of gold are still too little, these hands could hold the world but it will...never be enough"
Hey Taylor, I am so thankful that you posted this. This was so brave of you and important for you to post this - I also will go through moments like this and then the next day feel like that was silly of me to feel that way. But our feelings are real and they are true to us. I am glad you are reaching out to your community and sharing. I recently made a business move and it's getting tough to not get into a negative zone when things don't pan out the way I think they should. This video was actually really encouraging to me! I am excited to continue watching and seeing the journey God has you on.
Thank you Stephanie! I appreciate it!
this is so uplifting i love you and your beautiful heart
thank you for sharing this and for keeping it real, a lot of people (including myself) will be able to get comfort and inspiration from your video. love you and your videos 💕💖💘😍 xx
You're so sweet Cayce, thank you!
I feel the way that you are describing every single day! You aren't alone!
Im sorry to hear that Allison, I hope you start to feel present soon, because its not very fulfilling to live life this way!
Hope you got lots of hugs from your loved ones. You are amazing & work so hard. I can totally relate to things you say.
Thank you!! Hope you have a good day today Hannah!
This resonated with me so much and I definitely needed to hear this. I am feeling this way but never knew how to articulate it and you definitely helped with that. I love you so much and get so excited when you post a video. Thank you for being so authentic. Your're amazing.
Thank you for being part of this community. Were all on this ride together!
Girlie it will past! your beautiful,positive,an awesome person.l love that you so real.the you'll get through this!
Thank you so much!
I feel and have felt this. There is a medical term to this called "Depersonalization disorder," and "Derealization." I felt this for 6 months when I was 16 and it was after a traumatic experience. I've also felt like this lately at age 24 where I don't know what my purpose is, or what life is for in general. You're not alone.
Thanks for being able to relate. Appreciate you!
