      Beautiful words guys. Like many I feel the loss of a close friend although we never met. As well as random acts of kindness I feel we all have a responsibility to not just ignore it when we see cyber bullying (something I am guilty of) , but to confront it head on. I will never turn a blind eye again, it’s time to show these cowards that their behaviour is not acceptable. Lee, you have made me a better person - this is part of your legacy.

    Lee was so looking forward to that trip with you two in Custard the bus. It’s true what you’ve said... she was EASY to love deeply without even meeting her in person and yet I know that when you all did finally meet you’d have LOVED her even more. A true bright light. One in a million.
    Big hugs to you both for this beautiful tribute to Lee. She’s so proud of you for speaking up and continuing her work in ending the stigma that surround mental health. Wish we were closer to join you for those very healing swims. So much love 💛🌞🌻

    Hello guys. I discovered you literally a week ago, when I was little bit struggling with school and stress. It was nothing horrible, but I needed some kind of reminder that I rule my own world. After the first video I watched I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe. I immediately felt like I know you guys for years and you really helped me in just one week. I "met" Lee just few days ago and I have no right to say that I knew her, but it really feels like it, so I cried with you during the video. I am so sorry for your loss and so glad that you speak about this. One of my family members really struggled with mental health. Thanks god we managed to help her, but it was a tough journey. Mental health is nothing to be ashamed of and we all deserve to live the life we want. To rule our own world. Thank you that you remind us of this every day.

      She knew how much she was loved. Mental illness will take you even when those that love you most are there to catch you when you fall. It’s a suffering like no other and even though everyone’s journey is different. Those that also suffer can relate to the pain and emptiness. The weight can be just too heavy. The feeling of being a burden is constant even when the people in your life love you and want to be there for you.

    Was completely devastated when I heard the news about Lee. She was one of the few younger travelers that I felt bonded and connected to. She was such a beautiful spirit! I didn't know her in person but she inspired me so much and was just a gorgeous girl to follow and enjoy ❤❤❤
    I have battled with depression, C-PTSD and anxiety and childhood trauma and became suicidal again in December 2019 and onward through 2020.
    Instead of giving in to my depression and mental health concerns I plan to encourage others to get help and change their lives! ❤

    Such beautiful words spoken from the heart. We never had the chance to meet Lee but messaged online - she was an amazing person and the world wont be the same without her. She did a wonderful post saying that just because she put's herself online doesn't give people the right to say what they want. There is a fine line between freedom of speech and hate speech. We all need to stand up again cyber bullying. As content creators we should not accept personal or hate speech, it is not ok !!! We need to all stick together. Hopefully UA-cam also does more to prevent videos that encourage cyber bullying. I am sure Lee would have loved your video and I am sure she would be heading your way for a rocking tour of Wales with you. Sending big virtual hugs - Chris & Marianne xxx

    I want you guys to know that you're one of the very few youtubers I actually love and really enjoy watching. You have had such an impact on my life, and I'm sure on others too, and you continuously inspire to really live my life the way I want to, or to put it into your words, rule my own world. You're always so willing to help and so supportive, I message you so much on instagram sometimes and you always find the time to reply and try to help me out/answer my questions, and I think that says a lot about you as people. Because barely any other influencers reply to their DMs. I just wanted you guys to know that you're amazing, incredibly strong, and have had a huge impact on my outlook on life. So thank you again, and I'm sending you guys all the love from Germany ❤️

      I was restless on the day Lee left her material body. It was irritating because I’m okay. I am very empathetic and feel, see and hear very sensitive... When Eamon and Bec posted it on Instagram it hit me like a wrecking ball. And I dived deep in this pain, all her loved ones are feeling. And I always wanted to stand by all them, but in my head has been the voice, who’d said “It’s not necessary what you think”.
      I’m okay... Thank you! I am in love with myself since one year. That’s why I’m so sad... We are all seeking after the prescription for happiness. I know where the happiness is living... But I didn’t reach out... I’m 20 years older than Lee... But she had the knowledge which I have. She had all tools in her hands. But no idea how to deal with the pain.
      If anybody who’s in this situation is reading this:
      You have to go back to the pain, dive deep in it, feel it again, be brave, and then realise that you survived this situation, in which your ego told you this is the end. You have survived! Visualise your younger you and embrace her/him. Take her/him with you... Back in the here and now. Maybe you breathe out a bit more powerful. That’s the moment you let it go.
      And eat dark chocolate it’s uplifting. Everything with Lemons. Change vom hot to cold under the shower. Meditate. Walk in the forest. The green of the leaves is healing. There are much more things you can do to uplift your mood. Wearing the colour Magenta for example is one more example. It helps against depression.
      Sure it can’t wipe it away! But everything lifting is a support!

    I don't know what to do or say. I didn't know her directly or personally, but like many people we followed her on UA-cam or Instagram. And I started following her when she was still together with her Aussie boy friend Max. This is the thing about social media, we share so much there and open ourselves up to praise and abuse at the same time. I always try to find ways to be kind to others, but what I learnt about Lee's situation was that there were other UA-camrs that were not directly commenting on her videos, but were making their own video and posting it on their channel and in these videos they were being rather negative about her. I also heard from other UA-camrs that those videos have been deleted from their channel after her suicide. And I don't comment about their names. I am not looking to name, blame or shame them. But it is important to discuss this - what we comment on videos or the reaction videos of other videos - can have a positive or negative effect on a person. And before making negative comments or negative reaction videos - maybe we should consider how this is going to effect another person. We don't know how others are struggling. On UA-cam, Instagram - people post their happiness or good moments - and somehow people mistake these short moments as representing the entire story - instead of seeing this as just a short happy moment. I post on Instagram my happy moments or pictures that inspire me - but the rest of the time I am struggling the same as others do. Social media is not reality. So all I ask is - if you are going to comment or make videos about others... try to be encouraging or positive or kind or helpful. And thank you guys for Speaking Up for Lee.

    That’s nice of you, she had her struggle, she had friends, but she still chose a permanent violentas solution to a temporary problem. I Some people are able to hide their pain from their therapists, loved ones, but know you did all you could by giving her love, no one is to blame, medication often necessary for as long as needed. I hope the go fund will offer support to the train & rescue crew who had to deal with the aftermath, they have been traumatized. Also don’t don’t feel it’s entirely fair to blame “cyber bullies”, if you put your lives out theirs on A public forum, you must expect to get some criticism, it’s all part of the system, it means you living your life on your terms. I don’t feel it’s right to blame anyone who disagrees with you & claim them to be a cyber bully, you are putting yourselves onto the same stage. Withdraw when it no longer feels right

The outpouring of grief shows there are wonderful people in our global village, who want to do good and to share compassion. Lee is alive in all of us mourning her loss.

    I'm new to the story of Lee, even though I've been watching her videos. I never knew she was cyber bullied. How can this be possible even? - that gorgeous gorgeous girl was so lovely.
    In fact she brought me to your channel. Lee was beautiful - I felt Lee was real.
    Btw, I love Wales and was there a few weeks ago with my grand daughter. Take care, stay safe and stay real, Oh and congratulations on your recent news.

    I really feel your pain, deep in my heart ❤️
    I’ve had a depression for the last six years, and in June 2020 I was diagnosed with a personality disorder, anxiety and depression.
    I’ve never really talked about my mental problems, I always put on a mask, and just smile.
    It has always been difficult for me to speak about it, I don’t even talk with my family about it, even though they would do everything to help me.
    So Lee was the first person I’ve felt that I could relate to, since she has been struggling so much, and was open about it. She really inspired me to be open about it, and even own up to it, because it shouldn’t be a taboo, and you shouldn’t be judged because of it!
    So please, can we just be good to each other soon?
    Can we not go around and judge people and talk shit? Cause I’m really tired of it!
    Love to you guys! You’re the best, and really inspiring!
    Speak up for Lee ❤️

  • @annettewornin7683
    @annettewornin7683 3 роки тому +1

    Mental health always carries a stigma unfortunately, the thing is no one should judge because it can happen to anyone it can creep up on you and then hits you like a ton of bricks. It’s so much easier for people to be nasty or become distant with you, because in their eyes you’re weak. A favourite saying I’ve heard is “give yourself a shake or get a grip” which really doesn’t help most people walk away only true friends stick around and give support, which can be as simple as making a cuppa and a chat. God bless Lee xx

    I never knew Lee for real, but I thought that she's such a sweet and caring person and had the prettiest soul ever- But bullying on the net is so easy- sitting anonymous behind the screen with some taken name. But actually it's quite simple, never say anything to anybody that you wouldn't say if you stand face to face with the person. As you probably know ny know, I'm a silly, but very friendly old man. I can always find something positive to say and never anything negative. Thanks for speaking out for Lee to make us all understand what an amazing person she was 🤗😍💐

    Sending you all hugs...I felt within my heart of hearts that you were taking time away due to Miss Lee's
    tragic ending. I am 'sure' yaz are soooo supporting Mr. E and Miss B. also...we are so worried about
    them here in Canada, as well as all their legit followers whom know of their closeness with Miss Lee.
    The relentless cyber bullying WAS absolutely detrimental and I often shared with her to not 'do'
    social anymore or to 'close' off comments and make it a different format of how they could 'reach'
    her.
    I am sooo sad she had not seen her family since early winter of 2020--that must be soooo hard for
    them. I am though, extinctic that she found another extatically fabulous 'love' in her life and that
    her and Jordan were so very close.
    Best in 'your' travels . . . pllllease no coma cozy driving & to be hyper vigilant of surroundings as the
    world 'has' changed due to the pandemic. Hugz to yaz.
