i am so so so grateful for you, yes you! right now! reading this! you are amazing! have a great day! :) - Фільми й анімація
I massively appreciate you opening up about not always being okay - I feel like so many people put on a front that everything is perfect in their lives! I’ve also been feeling disconnected and overwhelmed this week - I think the start of January is always an odd time but hopefully we’ll find our way out of the rut!
Definitely - we got this x
Hi Eve, thank you so much for talking so honestly about your mental health. Many viewers will recognise the signs of anxiety, dissociation, and depersonalisation. Grounding techniques can help regain the senses after an event. Also, please dont feel pressure to give us jam-packed content. We just love you for you, and any content that you post absolutely rocks!! ❤️ take care and make sure you factor in some downtime if you can before Aus. No guilt allowed!! 👌😊
I really appreciate you talking about how you feel, because sometimes I feel very alone with my feelings. I've had the best summer but I've been feeling so isolated ever since uni started again in autumn, I have a million people texting me about uni stuff but that just adds to be problem somehow. I'm never alone, yet I feel so lonely at times and for the past weeks I've been feeling like things are just passing by without me being able to acknowledge it. It feels like Christmas never happened because my mind has been at uni every minute and I'm honestly so happy when the semester is over and I can finally have some for myself.
Thank you for being so open Eve, it is so deeply appreciated
❤️❤️ x
what you said about your mental health really resonated with me. thank you for being so honest- your videos make so many people feel a lot less alone ❤️ and on another note the traitors is so good!!
Of course, any time! And yesssss so good x
I wish you all the best on your adventures! I was just watching your moving the Oxford vlog yesterday, the nostalgia!!
Thank you ❤️
I’m in my third year doing journalism with the NCTJ and you described it perfectly! It’s so intense but is the best course haha - best of luck with your journey, been a subscriber since GCSE days so loved watching you grow xx
Sending you lots of love - things will get better ❤️
Thanks so much ❤️
I watch all your videos but these are always my favourite ❤ all the best for Australia, I really believe it will be one of the best things you’ve done x
Thank you so much! I’m very excited xx
I really enjoy these sit down chatty videos whilst at work. I have my air pods in while working, its like listening to a podcast:)
Ah that’s so lovely to say! Hope you enjoyed x
Really appreciate you being so open about disassociation ❤ I had very similar feelings around the time I first watched you back in 2019 talking about it but only got help in the summer past - it truly does help to know you’re not alone! If I can give any advice it would be to put yourself first to really work through it, and remember you can’t pour from an empty cup if you’re not feeling yourself ❤ Sending love always 🥰🥰🥰
So glad you managed to get help! Lots of love x
Your little section on your mental health was so heartfelt and genuine and really resonated with me. I'm going through a rough mental health patch too atm and I have to say, therapy has been the ONLY thing that has helped over the last week so I would absolutely advocate speaking to someone. Dissociation is so shit, but I just try to remind myself that it's my brain trying to protect me from things it can't quite handle right now. I know it doesn't make it go away, but giving my dissociation a purpose makes it a little less scary.
I really feel you on the graduate mental health slump- as a huge over-achiever and over-planner, the months after graduating in 2019 were terrifying and honestly, I'm still not sure what I want to be doing.
I'd really reccomend Rupi Kaur's new healing through writing book - it promotes freewriting as a healer to trauma and pain etc, I've only done the first few exercises but as an English teacher, my little literature brain has been scratched so I thought I'd share!
Sending you all the love, angel x
Sending so much love back - hope you’re doing ok ❤️
Thank you for talking about your feelings honestly. I graduated in 2020 and tbh I’m still not sure about what I want to do and the path that I’ve chosen. Does anyone though really? Sometimes I think everybody’s just winging it haha.
Have fun and stay safe in Australia! ❤
I'm looking forward to those travel vlogs. I love them too. x
I LOVED the Traitors!!
So good right!!!!
This is the first time I’ve ever heard someone talk about dissociation so openly. As a child I used to get so scared and say that it felt like I was just a voice inside a head. If I think too deeply about it then I start to worry I won’t ‘snap back’ so I have to shake it off and ignore the feeling 😕
On the note of the actor's union, SAG in the US is the same way. you can't share a name, so my friend now goes by her full name (including middle names) because her first and last name combo was already taken
Looking gorgeous Eve xx
Thank you so much ! 🤍
Thank you so much for talking about being in your first relationship! I’m in my first relationship now and it’s been so challenging 😅
You got this! Xx

I suffered with periods of dissasociation since I was 17 and in 2021 I entered a phase where I experienced it daily for months and it never left and that's when I got help. I've now been on antidepressants for almost a year and hardly ever experience it anymore which is the most amazing feeling! I definitely know how scary it is so don't ever feel alone! Apart from medication, I think the best way to help yourself naturally is to understand why it happens rather than focusing on the feeling itself. The way I would explain dissociation is that your body and mind is so absolutely terrified about something that is happening (anxiety or trauma usually causes this) so instead off fighting or flying (having a panick attack or running away from the problem) you instead freeze, this is your body's way of dealing with high levels of anxiety, your mind simply stops and disconnects from your body because it cant handle fighting it. Dissociation is like the condition of fearing fear itself, you are so scared of being scared that your mind just switches the off button leaving you disconnected and confused, which only scares you more. To fix this condition short term i recommend washing your hands or body with freezing cold water, if you're in a brightly lit place i recommend wearing sunglasses. The most important thing to remember is that you are safe and that mental illness is like a liar in your brain. It is literally a little monster sitting in your brain saying things that are not true like 'everyone hates me' etc etc and you believe it. That's where medication really helps, medication kills this monster in your head. You are not this monsters thoughts those awful thoughts are the illness, you have to separate yourself from them.
I wish you luck and happiness Eve
That’s great advice - thank you so much, you too x
You are one of my favourite youtubers @Eve Bennett haven't watched you in awhile I shall come back to you soon.
Keep up the content
Thanks so much ☺️
Never make pressure for future neither be on past your present is in your hand ✌️😍😍😍
You should totally pop over to Canberra while you’re in Aus… (aussies will lol at this) hope you have the best time while you’re here!!
Thanks so much!!! 😁
Can 100% relate to the friends as a comfort show haha. Started watching in 2020 and watched about 10 times through since, made first two years of uni feel less like I was alone when I was sat in my room by myself
I loved the video eve and love you xx when you coming back to the Midlands and hope you and Rob are well xx
Thanks so much!

I've been struggling with the Post Uni Freefall for 8 months now and it is not really a great time. And there is so much pressure from well meaning family and friends who constantly ask what you are doing next. I haven't managed to land a job in my degree yet and I feel so much judgement from people ( which might be in my head). I am so ready to jump into a job and feel like I belong somewhere professionally. It is taking time and I'm impatient.
You’ve got this - totally relate x
I am flying to Melbourne on the 8th of February so we'll be there around the same time. Are you seeing Molly and Tom whilst you are out there? Love your videos x
Yes I've heard about that with the actor's trade Union Equity. It's what would be called a stage name, no different from a trading name of a business really. I didn't know that was the reason behind it though. It's good to choose a name that has a personal connection.
Yes that’s what I said, nice to still have some link to it 😅
The overly active brain is a real problem for me too - love your videos btw!!
Thank you 🥰
Looking forward to your videos of Australia. I have just googled what to pack for backpacking. I was amazed. There's loads to pack into either a 50 or 70L rucksack. I would need to go into training. Ha
I’m looking forward to the challenge of packing haha!
@@RevisionWithEve I once did a solo holiday to India, but I had a suitcase. I packed loads of lotions and potions, cotton wool, you name it, I had it, as I was terrified of getting ill. At one of the airports in India I took out my 'first aid kit' to get my tea tree oil out, and a man who I noticed was eyeing my bag, came up to me and said 'do you remove boils'. We both lookrd at one another and burst out laughing.
Hi Eve.
I think the performers union is called Equity. You can't have the same name as another actor/performer as you said. Examples:- David Jason (Only Fools and Horses) is David White and David Tennant (Doctor Who) is David Smith.
Thank you for your honesty in this video. Best wishes for your adventures in Australia 🌞.
Thanks so much!
eve you need to bring back gins with eve :)
Ooooh I miss those!
Eve eres muy hermosa te deseo mucha suerte 🤩🥰
Good video
Thanks so much!
Equity is the union 😋
Ah yes thought I was mixing them up!
This is my first time hearing the term "city break"
If you need a local to grab a coffee with in Melbourne!!!! You’ve got viewers here🤩
Definitely! X
Definitely! X
Equity - is the actors union ur talking about
When you were talking about Rob's 'new' name, I thought you were saying his new name was piss, it took me like 10 minutes to realise you were saying Pierce😂😂
Hahaha omg it does sound like I’m saying that 😅😂
Congratulations you are a journalist now... By the way I am attending intern here in Czech Republic
💙💙💙💙
Will you be meeting up with Molly whilst you're in Aus?
Yes! ❤️
@@RevisionWithEve Ahh exciting!
Apart from taking Vitamin d3, we British need to stop just thinking Australia is concentrated on the East coast. You’re missing out on so much. Plus, don’t worry about signal they have internet in that country 😅
🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🔥🔥
Omg I just read a book in which the main character also had to change her name because her actual name was already taken as a stage name and I thought that was made up for the storyline, that's so stupid there are so many people with the same name?? 😂
If any job requires you to change our name that is a massive red flag like wtf is that stupid rule 😂😂😂
First?
Yes! Hello ☺️
@@RevisionWithEve 😲, you replied! Yessssssss!!!!
don't go to the civil service - avoid at all costs!
Why?
Would 100% recommend the US version of Traitors - also on iPlayer. Even better than ours.
I just couldn’t get into it at all!
