Graduating is such a change and navigating the limbo and comparison with what other people have lined up after uni is so much more complex emotionally when you're chronically ill ❤
I am so glad I found your channel! 😭😭😭 I deal with all the same things, crippling social anxiety, bad bouts of depression, panic attacks and also POTS. I am pretty much bed bound at the moment, it’s hard because when my physical body is feeling okay/I can muster up enough energy to do something then my anxiety plays up, I get overwhelmed, have a panic attack and call it quits on everything 😅 Just want you to know you are never alone! I am so grateful to have found this video, it’s as though I am watching myself go through all the daily struggles I go through too. 🥺💕💕 Sending so much love and healing ❤️🩹
Anxiety is such a hard thing to deal with and you did amazing this week at pacing yourself and challenging yourself as much as you could manage. I know it's hard to see that when you're in the midst of it, but you should be very proud of yourself (: Also your summer ball dress looks gorgeous on you & I can't wait to see your grad dress!
Elinor!! Thank you so much for being so real and vulnerable. Looks like we had very similar weeks, last week my mental health was in the absolute pits and it disrupted everything, my upload schedule too 😞 I relate so hard to everything you've said and shown here. I too get that thing where every sound is distressing to me when I'm spiralling. Have you tried Loop earplugs? They have been a lifesaver for me, and I think they might be really beneficial for you too. Also, I was hoping you would pick that dress for your summer ball! It's stunning on you! Well, they all were, but that one is just so cute. Wishing you a better week, and thank you for making me feel like I'm not alone in feeling/living this way 💖
Heyy!! I wanted to say thank you for making these videos!! And for being so real! I was finally recently diagnosed with Fibromyalga a few months ago (after alllll the testing) and your channel has been helping me come to terms with it all to be honest. You’ve been part of the inspiration for me to get and ask about mobility aids for myself, though I’ve used my walking stick once in public so far. But in time I know I’ll get there and get past the anxiety myself. I’ve still been learning to manage things and again, your channel has been so helpful for me!! So I just wanted to say thank you so much for being so brave and for posting about your journey!! Have a blessed week!! ❤
Hi Elinor! Love your vids! I've noticed you have huge problems with sleep, just like I do. I have ME/CFS and all kinds of symptoms. Recently I started looking into the mold topic, and even more recently, almost 2 weeks ago, I started taking a bit of activated charcoal before sleep, as some guys who had the same problem with the mold toxicity did, it makes such a big difference to me it's like a sleeping pill. While I'm still in a moldy environment, it only helps me to function so much and not a complete solution. Stay strong Elinor! 🤗
I totally relate to the intrusive overwhelming thinking and not being able to stop it and sort of spiralling out of control. It’s exhausting. But also when you were trying the dresses on I was hoping you’d pick the one you did as it looked stunning on you! Gorgeous ❤❤❤
You are on the right track! Don't be scared. It's all gonna be fine. In future it will getting better and better. And one day there is no weelchair necessary anymore. Mark my words!
My mum's looking over my shoulder watching this and she genuinely didn't understand why you were so upset over wanting to make the video but not being able to. It can be really hard to navigate the feeling of "this would be good for me if I did it" despite it being bad for you to do it. I do, obvs, but she didn't so thanks for explaining.
Nice to see you back on here. Well done for coping with this tricky week. Hope things start to improve soon 😊💜

What you describe sounds a lot like autistic burnout. I’ve been dealing with that this yeah which really effects my physical health.

This particular video is making me feel seen and less alone ❤❤

Could you do a video about your diagnosis experience? Totally understand if not but I’d be curious to know more about the process
Elinor, are the time stamp names for the video correct?
Ask God to help you. He took away my depression. Prayers help my anxiety
I’m glad you’ve found things that help you!
You are unique
I kiss you 💋 my lovely wife 💋 ❤
