It's great they have the love and support of each other. Rose leaving the light on during the night just so her beautiful wife can sleep shows just how much Rose loves Rosie.😪😴💡
@@bread2951 I'm making that a red flag from now on. If I confided something in a person and they still trample over my boundary, then it's over because they couldn't respect me enough to believe the severity of an issue to me.
As someone with terrible PTSD from assault and abuse, this isn’t talked about enough. I am so thankful for you both. I’m a week from a terrible anniversary. my panic attacks have been frequent and I’ve had horrid anxiety and depression and I’m so so grateful for this video. Thank you for your uncut honesty and absolute kindness and softness when regarding this issue. It’s so difficult and so exhausting and I love you both so much.
I had EMDR to deal with my assault trauma and how Rosie describes seeing the trauma behind a thick plane of glass far away is a great description. My trauma around my assault and the fear of being seen has virtually disappeared. If you can try EMDR I highly recommend it.
Sometimes I watch their videos and I'm like "wow they tell us so much I feel like I really know them" and then I watch a video like this one and not only do I realize that I dont know them as well as I thought, but I'm reminded that Rose and Rosie really actually do love each other and they are in it for life. It's not just a passionate lust filled love. They genuinely care about each other and want to be together and they choose each other. It's a beautiful thing to watch
I feel like the more I learn about someone, the less I know them. Sometimes I think I know all about someone, but then they'll tell a story I never would've guessed happened to them, and it just reminds me that people have very complex lives with so many details I don't know about.
just wanted to mention, if anyones upset when they see a cut in the "uncut", they must not also understand that maybe some things are just too far to talk about. if they have a private detail in their life they don't want us to know about it, we should respect it. we should be grateful how much content they produce weekly for us, not the fact you can timestamp a video edit
The moment at 16:43 is so sweet. Sometimes I wonder if Rose is going too far when she teases Rosie because I am personally sensitive to teasing. But these two clearly are on the same wavelength and in that moment I think Rose knew exactly what Rosie needed. ❤️❤️❤️
Having been diagnosed with PTSD from my wife's death was something that I was shocked to discover I had. I thought I was just missing her. I didn't know that the pain of watching someone you love go through something like that, along with the family dynamics of homophobic in-laws, turned me into an anxiety-ridden wreck and shell of the person I used to be. I am nothing like who I used to be before that happened. I feel almost nauseous when I am happy and that is something I am working on. I love your book and I love this video. You're both very brave.
This made me cry. Not much help, I know, but there are support mechanisms out there. There are people you could reach out to, who might be some comfort, or at least help to keep your head above the water. You're not 'a failure' when you need help. Look for it, ask for it and grab onto any lifeline. Stay afloat, flower. x
Very sorry to hear this is something you have had to deal with are are still dealing with. Please know you wont always carry these feelings with you. Sending you love and healing energies x
Sorry to hear this. It actually happens far more often than representation makes one think. -witnessing a natural death -surviving a natural disaster -surviving a fire -MVA -medical trauma -sexual abuse/assault/rape -physical abuse -DV -refugee -war -kidnapping -etc. Etc. People who may need to see this, YOUR trauma is yours and valid.
I truly adore how much you two know each other. We have seen it in reverse before, but in this video we can see rose making jokes every once in a while to make sure that Rosie didn't fall into that dark hole we sometimes go into when trying to talk about our past trauma. They also discuss how rose made Rosie's trauma timeline. When you love someone, it hurts when you see them feel those deep emotional wounds because you know that overall you can't save them from their own minds. She made sure that Rosie didn't have to physically make that terrible timeline but also made sure it got done so that Rosie could see it all out there and hopefully understand herself better from it. Just a fucking gorgeous example of love.
Looking back at 16-year-old me who didn't know that she was bisexual nor that she had OCD, now at 21 it makes a lot of sense why I would watch you two a lot, especially when things blew up. Thanks for giving such a positive outlook on a future, consciously and unconsciously.
rose is protective of rosie and it is absolutely precious. you guys are truly amazing for talking about such an ignored issue. i wish you guys the best 💕
The human brain is so complicated, it really is incredible, all the things it can do but sometimes it really can be like a time bomb, I feel like we have all had experiences where we have just blown, even over the smallest things, I just couldn't imagine having to go back through all of those things that made you blow in the first place. Takes an amazingly, strong person to go through that and come out the other side and see such a good side to it all
I suffer from severe CPTSD from childhood which has affected me for so many years and I've just started to get treatment for it. Seeing people I love and respect be so open about it makes it so much easier for me to be honest about it with my therapist, friends, etc. Living with it can be so hard but finding people to look up to makes it so much easier. Thanks for being so amazing!!
I really needed something like this today. I've been in therapy for OCD and I've recently gotten down and I was disappointed in myself for falling down again. It's so refreshing to see people openly discussing PTSD and OCD, thank you both ❤❤❤
I've done EMDR a few times now and I can honetsly say it's the best therapy I've ever done. I have not suffered trauma, however EMDR can help with a number of different things. I had reacurring thoughts and images, I had to be hospialised yet again. Tried EMDR with my therapist, after 2 sessions I had no more horrible images/thoughts in my head. I had my shortest hospital stay ever (3 weeks!!). And above all I had 2 whole weeks where I wasn't suicidal. I hadn't had a single day without suicidal thoughts for 8 years. EMDR has been a true revelation for me and I have never felt this hopeful about my future! I would truly recommend trying it to anyone with mental health issues!
Rosie, your strength of character and beautiful loving nature is incredible. The traumas of your life seemed to have cut you and shaped you into a beautifully facetted diamond!
When you were talking about tics it made me realise that I have one. When I get an intrusive thought I snap my fingers 3 times to recognise it and if it doesnt go away I make stupid noises with my mouth until it does. Sounds stupid but it takes my mind off of it. Thank you for sharing that it was really helpful.
i swear to god, I realized I had a tic at this time as well, because when I get an intrusive thought I immediately say something incredibly random, somewhat weird, or make a loud noise, and it's really embarassing.
@@iAnneart People always think I'm trying to be rude or something when I snap my fingers. The mouth sounds I do are kinda like how you make bubbles under water... I cant really explain it. I'm glad Rose and Rosie spoke about it otherwise I wouldn't have found out about it.
Rosie, I'm curious, as someone who suffered a trauma that entailed rape (through coercion) and emotional abuse and manipulation, have you ever dealt with intimacy issues as a result of your trauma? I struggle with safety issues, among other things, but intimacy has become nearly impossible for me. I wonder also how much it has affected your ability to function in general (before you saw the therapist). Love you both and thank you so much for sharing with us. This is not talked about enough.
Absolutely second this! as a young lesbian struggling to come to terms with my partners recent traumatic sexual experiences (and my own from a few years ago) I feel so lost sometimes. Would be great to hear about their perspectives and their thoughts on intimacy in relation to that.
My mom is trained in EMDR therapy, and has had it done on herself. She did it to me once, and it was crazy how well it worked. The lights were at her workplace, so she used her hand. Also, I have been terrified of the dark my whole life, so it’s nice to finally know of another adult who is also afraid.
Hi girls! As a psychologist I'd like to thank you for being so generous to share this intimate feelings about anxiety disorders. You can help many people. 😉😉😉
3 years ago tomorrow I got stabbed, 6 months after the stabbing I was diagnosed with PTSD took me awhile to come to terms with it, I’ve had therapy but still have issues surrounding it. Thank you for making this ❤️❤️
I actually can't thank you enough for making this video. when the thoughts and feelings come rushing back it can feel so lonely and that your the only person who feels this way. hearing you guys talk so open and honest about is extremely comforting.
The Body Keeps the Score is INCREDIBLE and I’m so glad you found it helpful. You are resilient AF. Lots of love from another therapist in training in Oklahoma ❤️
My ptsd acts like adhd. I'm so proud of you rose's! Emdr is SO hard. I did tapping cause my therpist didn't have a light lol it was hard and worth it. I'm so proud of yall. Really watching your growth has been...just heart warming.
The way you talk about how you think people wouldn't believe you if you'd list everything you've gone through and I really relate to that feeling, but also because I think lots of people do go through a lot but don't really realise how much it really is until they make a list of it
So proud of you Rosie. You've been through so much and the courage and strength you've had to get through it is amazing. Then you share yourself like this with everyone. You are so beautiful inside and out. Rose, you joke (which I love) but it's obvious that your love and support for Rosie through this was so important. Thank you both for sharing yourselves this way. Much love and support to you both! ❤️❤️❤️
I'm only 4 minutes in but I'm pausing to say I love these videos and the uncut series, please continue them (if you feel like it). I've never met two people that are so real on the internet.
This video actually made me cry because I realized some of the things I’ve been doing in response to trauma I didn’t even realize I was doing until you mentioned them. Thank you so much for talking about this
Thank you for being so spoken about this, it really does help everyone. I live in Argentina and I can't believe two women from another continent are helping me figuring out my own stuff
I didn't realise that other people to the tick thing too! Whenever I get an intrusive thought or a bad memory come up or even just the feeling of being anxious, I have to snap my fingers or jerk my head or my legs. I can control it more in public - I just tense up and stop breathing for a bit and let myself feel the emotions until I can move on. Nothing majorly traumatic has ever happened to me, but I've had severe anxiety since I was 5 so I guess anything and everything was traumatic. Thank you so much for sharing your experience xx
Without Rose I couldn't have been able to finish this vid, she brings the exact dose of humor I need to keep my attention on something as serious as this without feeling uncomfortable.
This is really great. Not only is it nice that other people with PTSD or OCD can relate and feel understood, but like you said, people who might not even recognize that they show symptoms. But I also think it's super important and helpful to people like me, who don't have either of these and didn't fully know the details of what it's like. It's good for everyone to try and be able to understand each other and what's up with our brains ya know? This was really eye opening for me and I wanna learn more about PTSD now o I can educate myself and maybe understand a bit more when I come across people suffering from it, ya know?
I was able to finish the whole video this morning. Rosie, your resilience, bravery, and honesty astounds me. Thank you for sharing. You are helping tremendously! I'm so happy you're in a good place! You're a warrior. And Rose, the support you give, makes me tear up. You're both so genuine and honest and that's what I love most about your content. You're not trying to put a blanket over anything, and I really admire that about you two! Love you, Daughton's.
My therapist told me that it would make sense that a lot of the „ticks“ or well routines? That I had as a child were to keep my life in order cause things with my mother only seemed to be in order to me, I didn’t realize I was being emotionally abused. I think having these kind of ticks or doing things that make you feel in control (like taking a step back) helps you feel in control generally in your life; and that feeling of wanting to be in control comes with so many different mental illnesses and show differently in different ppl with these illnesses ; so so interesting. But anyway I’m super proud of you guys! And Rosie shout out for deciding to study and become a therapist, that‘s so amazing.
Its timely that my prof a psychologist, shared that, one who has ptsd with no clear trigger trauma in the past might be developed it from the collective small unpleasant events that just kept pilling up unprocessed and damaging one’s being and/or they might also be using displacement, for example your fear of safety can be covering the real/deeper fear/issue from the past that needs to be acknowledged & dealt with/processed. This happens because facing/digging the real issue can be so threatening to the being of the person, and this is your unconscious sort of protecting you somehow, thats from what I understood. Wish you better and kinder days ladies. Thank you for using your platform to show how therapy truly helps and empowering others to seek help. This is truly informative and a good glimpse on patient perspective. ☺️
This was really interesting and so relatable. Last year was truly the worst year of my life, I couldn't sleep or leave the house because my anxiety was so bad. I had huge avoidance issues with lifts (elevators) and public toilets and other situations where I could get "stuck". Going to the doctor and getting anti-depressants and doing counselling was so helpful. It is so amazing to hear someone else talk about those specific symptoms because for a long time I thought I was really strange for that behaviour. Thank you both so much ❤️
I really really appreciate this video... I was diagnosed with PTSD 5 months ago and have recently self referred and am on the NHS waiting list (6-8 months from now). This video will give a lot of people what they need: information, recognition, and hope ❤
I love y’all so much. This is helping me. Nobody has ever tried to help or talk about it that I remember. I’ve gotten OCD and ADD . I’m so grateful for you beautiful ladies
In my profession as a paramedic I’ve see so many people and coworkers (police, medics, firemen) that have PTSD. It’s definitely something we should be educated on and know ways to help.
This is so informative and helpful.. PTSD that comes from "small traumas", tics that are product of extreme anxiety or PTSD, and OCD symptoms as a bad, automatic way to protect yourself are things that I had honestly been having to figure out myself through arduous self examination, and doing that, WHILE coping with the trauma itself, it's just really hard, and I'm glad at least I got to know that I was right, because it's also happened to you. So even though I could be "self diagnosing", I know I'm less alone, and I'm not crazy just making assumptions in my head. These intertwining symptoms should be talked about more. Thank you for doing so
Thank you for talking about this. I have CPTSD, Anxiety and Depression. I'm in therapy for it too and although it's hard, it really helps me to talk it through.
@@reiltin Hey, you're not being stupid at all. From what my therapist explained, PTSD usually occurs from a single traumatic event. C stands for complex, meaning trauma that occurs over a long period of time. They are similar but quite different too.
This video made me feel so seen, especially the part about the tics. I've never come across such an open discussion of experiences with tics and PTSD/OCD, it's reassuring to know I'm not alone.
The way you both explained everything was really helpful and made a lot of sense to me. I'm currently in therapy and watching this video has made me understand things that I haven't been able to with my therapist. Thank you both for being so open and honest.
As someone who lives with PTSD and complex PTSD I can’t thank you both enough for talking about this subject. My wife passed away at 25 after battling cancer since she was 21, with out a doubt the most traumatic experience of my life. I am definitely a different man now. By talking about these things it becomes more socially acceptable so a huge thank you!! ❤️
I’m gonna be honest, and I wonder if anyone else feels the same, I had never thought that I could have PTSD. I thought that the way I acted was normal until just now. Thank you for talking about it because I would have never allowed myself to think too deeply on it, if it wasn’t for you❤️
In no way shape or form is talking about problems a weakness. I see it as point of strenght, clear mind and will to educate/help others. I love you for the fortitude you show us! Live long and prosper!
Can I just say tell you how much I love you guys? Like I can't put into words how much you helped me and so many other people, so I'll just say I love you and wish you all of the happiness in the world ❤️
OMG YES with the trauma timeline being unbelievable!!! I did mine in my therapy session with the therapist and I was like “she’s going to think I’m lying oh nonono” the whole time I was going through everything!
I love how you spoke on the topic but kept the humor in. Your willingness to be transparent will surely help someone. Thank you Rose and Rosie for always be honest and open with you supporters and fans.
I am a trainee psychologist (1 year to go) and it is so helpful to hear your side (the client's side) of the story. I have been following your channel since the very beginning, and I'm really glad that you Rosie have taken up the course to become a therapist. Some of us psychologists/therapists have been the most hurt, but directing that into a positive outcome to benefit others, is a reward in itself. Sending love to you too Rose (always need supporters like you)
Shout out to Rose for suppressing her inner Chandler Bing so well lmao In all seriousness though, thank you so much for making this video and being so brave to talk about something so personal. I wish I had these kind of videos to watch when I was going through it. You tend to feel so crazy and alone and it's nice to know you're not. Rosie, you are so strong and such a wonderful person and I'm glad you said you are happy in a way because these things made you who you are. Everything happens for a reason, even if we don't know it at the time. Everything you have been through has made you the amazing person we all love today and I'm glad you want to help others with your story. Love you guys so much! Keep being awesome ❤️
Being vulnerable, showing your vulnerabilities, has nothing to do with weakness! Thank you for sharing. Saw it when it when it was uploaded and somehow stumbled upon it again / rewatched it. :)
as someone with trauma, ocd type anxiety and dpdr, this was a really good and useful video, hopefully once my brain comes online again i'll be able to process my shit and be ok. Related a lot to the stuff about hypervigilance and avoidance, sort of structure my life around that haha
I don’t normally comment, but I just love hearing your thoughts and real experiences on mental health. It’s helped me so much to not feel alone, please keep doing it!
This video just further proves that you guys deserve to have 1 million subscribers. You truly care about connecting with your audience and sharing your true authentic selves. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
This was such a great video! I totally agree with what Rose said at the end: there is a lot of value in people sharing their own experiences with mental illnesses. It never really occured to me that Rosie was suffering like that. Hearing how it all manifested for her feels very validating, because to me anxiety issues can often make you feel very worthless and silly. I applaud both of you for facing your fears, it's never easy to do. I think one thing that both of you do so outstandingly is normalising things that society still deems taboos. You both manage to live so authentically, and that means accepting the good with the bad, and always make me feel free by making me feel human. It's a wonderful thing to experience and I want to thank you for it! If you decide to make another mental health chat, I'll definitely watch it!
you guys talking about serious things whilst still being able to be lighthearted is honestly so amazing and helpful. You’re bringing light to important things that can help so many people whilst making us laugh 😭
Rose & Rosie thankyou so much for sharing something so personal and giving us all hope🤗. People often brag about their strengths and hide their weaknesses..but you faced yours head-on and that's how you grow. It's a process that takes time.
I’ve been dealing with my PTSD for a while over assault that happened as a child and I can’t express how it feels to see you talk about this sort of thing. Thank you thank you thank you for talking about it. It’s like you’re speaking directly to me. I don’t know how to express how this feels. Bless you Rosie. I am right here with you.
Sending you both a massive hug. You're both so brave and strong. Rose's clarification about making jokes was so useful for me to know as a highly sensitive person. Well done for being so vulnerable and honest
PS you both look SO hot and beautiful in this. Some subscribers are way too nit picky about cuts etc, who cares? You're human. I wouldn't have even noticed the foundation lol
EMDR therapy helped me immensely. I was bottling things up that I thought I was “over with.” Couldn’t have been more wrong. Thank you for opening up about your experience and being so well spoken about it.
Thank you guys for talking about this! My therapist just suggested EMDR to me last month for trauma I didn't even know I had and it kind of scared me, so knowing that there are others that have truly benefited from it is amazing! Thanks for always keeping it real ladies, it's why we love you! xxx
this legit helped me so much to know i’m not like this crazy person using PTSD when i haven’t been to war and still being valid in my feelings so thank you
I hope Rosie ends up being my therapist one day because just knowing who she is I know she’d completely just understand how to do it and would be great and empathetic and understanding but wouldn’t coddle you she’d call you out but still comfort you and that’s the best thing a therapist can do And I would hire Rose to be my private detective
I watched this in an educational wa because I don’t have ocd or ptsd and didn’t relate to a lot of the video but the last part where they talk about how not having a label to it like OCD or PTSD made them feel just like a fucked up human is the exact same way I felt about my ADHD. I hated myself for a while because of what I did or felt like I couldn’t do and I still struggle with that a little but having a name to it makes it easy for me to deal with it and not hate myself. Thanks for this video!
I can’t thank you enough for talking about this so openly. I was very recently diagnosed with ptsd and it’s made me feel very alone. I’m in therapy and have been for years but thinking about having to relive my trauma to work through things is very scary to think about. Watching this really made me feel like I wasn’t the only person out there dealing with things like this, and you’ve made me hopeful that I can get better and go on to live a life where this doesn’t have as much power over me. Thank you so much ❤️
Thank you for being open about such a sensitive subject. I needed this. Hope everyone who has OCD and PTSD or any psych related disorder gets to see this very informative and relatable video.
Thank you so so much for sharing all of this - I had some traumatic memories surface a couple of years ago and have since had a tic which I’ve been quite embarrassed and ashamed about (I’ve found I can usually control or at least minimise it, but it happens uncontrollably and quite intensely when I’m not fully conscious). I never realised it was something other people also experience - as sucky as it is, it’s really reassuring to know I’m not the only one
Beautifully vulnerable and educational. I've got OCD but not PTSD, and I shake my head vigorously when I get an intrusive thought. You two are my heroes. I see myself in you and I admire you both so much. Thank you for the years of candid, honest, loving content.
"If I make jokes is because I'm uncomfortable" is literally me in every serious situation
Omg we both have marceline!!!!
I love how Rosie is, the way she talks to us and tell about her insecurities. Rosie thank you for being you.
@@smilebehappy6102 It's Ellen
She is very brave to talk about it.
It's great they have the love and support of each other. Rose leaving the light on during the night just so her beautiful wife can sleep shows just how much Rose loves Rosie.😪😴💡
5:48 when Rosie just says "k" and Rose stops talking immediately. fantastic example of setting and respecting boundaries. love it.
Yes! They have such great respect for each other
Yes It's amazing
Yes It's amazing
They get each other so well. I mean, a 'k' was enough while some of us need to cry to stop our partners.
@@bread2951 I'm making that a red flag from now on. If I confided something in a person and they still trample over my boundary, then it's over because they couldn't respect me enough to believe the severity of an issue to me.
16:41 Rosie stopping to quickly say "I love you" to Rose before continuing is literally the cutest thing.
honestly, I melted
Yes I die

If I could click the thumbs up a thousand more times for this comment I would.
Wow. The most beautiful comment I've read❤ and so true.

Rose apologized for making jokes, but I actually found that very sweet, almost comforting even. Idk I like the way she handled this conversation.
I do too. It kinda softens the conversation while not distracting from the topic
Rosie: hopefully I’ll be able to help people
Rose: I think you already are
Me: crying
just wanted to mention, if anyones upset when they see a cut in the "uncut", they must not also understand that maybe some things are just too far to talk about. if they have a private detail in their life they don't want us to know about it, we should respect it. we should be grateful how much content they produce weekly for us, not the fact you can timestamp a video edit
3:08 omg 😂
“Now I’m training to be a therapist”
“A hot one”
I haven’t even watched this yet but I’d just like to say that my OCD made me buy 300 rocks in the span of one year
*sees a rock*
This shall make another fine addition to my collection
Am I allowed to laugh?? Omg
PM yes it’s so funny HDHSH
Anglerfish God 😆😆😆
This is just my OCD talking but I feel like 297.5 rocks would've been a better choice
Everyone in the comments who can relate to this video, we didn't deserve what happened to us (no matter what it was) and have good day.❤🧡💛💚💙💜🖤
Rose and Rosie is our safe space❤️
@Aileen Lelie Im crying too, it really helps to hear that
Thank you. ❤️
@Aileen Lelie me too :(
Thank you. I love you ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤 we’re stronger than anyone can ever realize or understand.
The moment at 16:43 is so sweet. Sometimes I wonder if Rose is going too far when she teases Rosie because I am personally sensitive to teasing. But these two clearly are on the same wavelength and in that moment I think Rose knew exactly what Rosie needed. ❤️❤️❤️
Omg yes soooo sweeet
This video really shows their love for each other. Especially at 16:34 when Rosie stops just to tell Rose I love you. I’m so glad they have each other
Yes it's soooo sweet

I love when rose cracks a joke then smirks at the camera
EMDR changed my life. i did like 10 sessions while in rehab and i know i wouldnt have been able to get sober without it.
Here's hoping you stay strong!
congratulations on your sobriety... too many people in my family have fallen to addiction. I applaud anyone who can get through it :)
Same here!!! EMDR is amazing. 900 days of sobriety today :)
Wow Rose making Rosie's trauma timeline for her is the sweetest thing I've ever heard
Looking back at 16-year-old me who didn't know that she was bisexual nor that she had OCD, now at 21 it makes a lot of sense why I would watch you two a lot, especially when things blew up. Thanks for giving such a positive outlook on a future, consciously and unconsciously.

I suffer from severe CPTSD from childhood which has affected me for so many years and I've just started to get treatment for it. Seeing people I love and respect be so open about it makes it so much easier for me to be honest about it with my therapist, friends, etc. Living with it can be so hard but finding people to look up to makes it so much easier. Thanks for being so amazing!!
Hope you're battling through it. Keep going, flower.
I really needed something like this today. I've been in therapy for OCD and I've recently gotten down and I was disappointed in myself for falling down again. It's so refreshing to see people openly discussing PTSD and OCD, thank you both ❤❤❤
Sending love! xxxxx
@@RoseAndRosie sending love to you both too xxxx
I've done EMDR a few times now and I can honetsly say it's the best therapy I've ever done. I have not suffered trauma, however EMDR can help with a number of different things. I had reacurring thoughts and images, I had to be hospialised yet again. Tried EMDR with my therapist, after 2 sessions I had no more horrible images/thoughts in my head. I had my shortest hospital stay ever (3 weeks!!).
And above all I had 2 whole weeks where I wasn't suicidal. I hadn't had a single day without suicidal thoughts for 8 years.
EMDR has been a true revelation for me and I have never felt this hopeful about my future!
I would truly recommend trying it to anyone with mental health issues!
Keep going, flower. You're worth the trek! x
Yes! So happy for you. You'll still have down moments, you just have to remember the good ones as well and believe you'll be fine. Much love.
Thank you for sharing your story! All the best and cheers for the bright future :)
The colour coordination is giving me LIFE- we stan some fashion matrimony
Rosie, your strength of character and beautiful loving nature is incredible. The traumas of your life seemed to have cut you and shaped you into a beautifully facetted diamond!
When you were talking about tics it made me realise that I have one. When I get an intrusive thought I snap my fingers 3 times to recognise it and if it doesnt go away I make stupid noises with my mouth until it does. Sounds stupid but it takes my mind off of it. Thank you for sharing that it was really helpful.
i swear to god, I realized I had a tic at this time as well, because when I get an intrusive thought I immediately say something incredibly random, somewhat weird, or make a loud noise, and it's really embarassing.
@@iAnneart People always think I'm trying to be rude or something when I snap my fingers. The mouth sounds I do are kinda like how you make bubbles under water... I cant really explain it. I'm glad Rose and Rosie spoke about it otherwise I wouldn't have found out about it.
Aren't tics involuntary?
Rosie, I'm curious, as someone who suffered a trauma that entailed rape (through coercion) and emotional abuse and manipulation, have you ever dealt with intimacy issues as a result of your trauma? I struggle with safety issues, among other things, but intimacy has become nearly impossible for me. I wonder also how much it has affected your ability to function in general (before you saw the therapist). Love you both and thank you so much for sharing with us. This is not talked about enough.
Absolutely second this! as a young lesbian struggling to come to terms with my partners recent traumatic sexual experiences (and my own from a few years ago) I feel so lost sometimes. Would be great to hear about their perspectives and their thoughts on intimacy in relation to that.
My mom is trained in EMDR therapy, and has had it done on herself. She did it to me once, and it was crazy how well it worked. The lights were at her workplace, so she used her hand. Also, I have been terrified of the dark my whole life, so it’s nice to finally know of another adult who is also afraid.
Reading it's been so effective for you is super reassuring because I'm on a waiting list for therapy and am terrified. Thank you for helping a bit!
rs88 No problem, that’s why I posted it! Best of luck to you!
"Go for the nuts and twist and rip" 😂😂
Hi girls! As a psychologist I'd like to thank you for being so generous to share this intimate feelings about anxiety disorders. You can help many people. 😉😉😉
3 years ago tomorrow I got stabbed, 6 months after the stabbing I was diagnosed with PTSD took me awhile to come to terms with it, I’ve had therapy but still have issues surrounding it. Thank you for making this ❤️❤️
All the best, Maggy.
I actually can't thank you enough for making this video. when the thoughts and feelings come rushing back it can feel so lonely and that your the only person who feels this way. hearing you guys talk so open and honest about is extremely comforting.
I am literally reading the title and I NEEDED this
Hope you're well, Taylor.
The Body Keeps the Score is INCREDIBLE and I’m so glad you found it helpful. You are resilient AF. Lots of love from another therapist in training in Oklahoma ❤️
Rosie : so I went to therapy..can’t remember why-
Rose : sooo many reasons
😂
My ptsd acts like adhd. I'm so proud of you rose's! Emdr is SO hard. I did tapping cause my therpist didn't have a light lol it was hard and worth it. I'm so proud of yall. Really watching your growth has been...just heart warming.
im very proud of rosie for teling us about this 🥺❤️
The way you talk about how you think people wouldn't believe you if you'd list everything you've gone through and I really relate to that feeling, but also because I think lots of people do go through a lot but don't really realise how much it really is until they make a list of it
Yup
So proud of you Rosie. You've been through so much and the courage and strength you've had to get through it is amazing. Then you share yourself like this with everyone. You are so beautiful inside and out. Rose, you joke (which I love) but it's obvious that your love and support for Rosie through this was so important. Thank you both for sharing yourselves this way. Much love and support to you both! ❤️❤️❤️
I'm only 4 minutes in but I'm pausing to say I love these videos and the uncut series, please continue them (if you feel like it). I've never met two people that are so real on the internet.
This video actually made me cry because I realized some of the things I’ve been doing in response to trauma I didn’t even realize I was doing until you mentioned them. Thank you so much for talking about this
💖💖💖💖💙💜
Thank you for being so spoken about this, it really does help everyone. I live in Argentina and I can't believe two women from another continent are helping me figuring out my own stuff
”if I make jokes is because im uncomfortable”
Rose are you literally me
I didn't realise that other people to the tick thing too! Whenever I get an intrusive thought or a bad memory come up or even just the feeling of being anxious, I have to snap my fingers or jerk my head or my legs. I can control it more in public - I just tense up and stop breathing for a bit and let myself feel the emotions until I can move on. Nothing majorly traumatic has ever happened to me, but I've had severe anxiety since I was 5 so I guess anything and everything was traumatic. Thank you so much for sharing your experience xx
Without Rose I couldn't have been able to finish this vid, she brings the exact dose of humor I need to keep my attention on something as serious as this without feeling uncomfortable.
This is really great. Not only is it nice that other people with PTSD or OCD can relate and feel understood, but like you said, people who might not even recognize that they show symptoms. But I also think it's super important and helpful to people like me, who don't have either of these and didn't fully know the details of what it's like. It's good for everyone to try and be able to understand each other and what's up with our brains ya know? This was really eye opening for me and I wanna learn more about PTSD now o I can educate myself and maybe understand a bit more when I come across people suffering from it, ya know?
I was able to finish the whole video this morning. Rosie, your resilience, bravery, and honesty astounds me. Thank you for sharing. You are helping tremendously! I'm so happy you're in a good place! You're a warrior. And Rose, the support you give, makes me tear up. You're both so genuine and honest and that's what I love most about your content. You're not trying to put a blanket over anything, and I really admire that about you two! Love you, Daughton's.
My therapist told me that it would make sense that a lot of the „ticks“ or well routines? That I had as a child were to keep my life in order cause things with my mother only seemed to be in order to me, I didn’t realize I was being emotionally abused. I think having these kind of ticks or doing things that make you feel in control (like taking a step back) helps you feel in control generally in your life; and that feeling of wanting to be in control comes with so many different mental illnesses and show differently in different ppl with these illnesses ; so so interesting. But anyway I’m super proud of you guys! And Rosie shout out for deciding to study and become a therapist, that‘s so amazing.
I have an OCD and it helps a lot to watch and talk about things like this. Thank you fwogs for sharing this very informative and sensitive topic.
Its timely that my prof a psychologist, shared that, one who has ptsd with no clear trigger trauma in the past might be developed it from the collective small unpleasant events that just kept pilling up unprocessed and damaging one’s being and/or they might also be using displacement, for example your fear of safety can be covering the real/deeper fear/issue from the past that needs to be acknowledged & dealt with/processed. This happens because facing/digging the real issue can be so threatening to the being of the person, and this is your unconscious sort of protecting you somehow, thats from what I understood. Wish you better and kinder days ladies. Thank you for using your platform to show how therapy truly helps and empowering others to seek help. This is truly informative and a good glimpse on patient perspective. ☺️
This was really interesting and so relatable. Last year was truly the worst year of my life, I couldn't sleep or leave the house because my anxiety was so bad. I had huge avoidance issues with lifts (elevators) and public toilets and other situations where I could get "stuck". Going to the doctor and getting anti-depressants and doing counselling was so helpful. It is so amazing to hear someone else talk about those specific symptoms because for a long time I thought I was really strange for that behaviour. Thank you both so much ❤️
Hope you're on the mend, Milly. Keep calm and carry on!
I really really appreciate this video... I was diagnosed with PTSD 5 months ago and have recently self referred and am on the NHS waiting list (6-8 months from now). This video will give a lot of people what they need: information, recognition, and hope ❤
It’s really cool you are talking about things like this. Glad you’re doing better, Rosie
I love y’all so much. This is helping me. Nobody has ever tried to help or talk about it that I remember. I’ve gotten OCD and ADD . I’m so grateful for you beautiful ladies
In my profession as a paramedic I’ve see so many people and coworkers (police, medics, firemen) that have PTSD. It’s definitely something we should be educated on and know ways to help.
This is so informative and helpful.. PTSD that comes from "small traumas", tics that are product of extreme anxiety or PTSD, and OCD symptoms as a bad, automatic way to protect yourself are things that I had honestly been having to figure out myself through arduous self examination, and doing that, WHILE coping with the trauma itself, it's just really hard, and I'm glad at least I got to know that I was right, because it's also happened to you. So even though I could be "self diagnosing", I know I'm less alone, and I'm not crazy just making assumptions in my head. These intertwining symptoms should be talked about more. Thank you for doing so
Thank you for talking about this. I have CPTSD, Anxiety and Depression. I'm in therapy for it too and although it's hard, it really helps me to talk it through.
@@reiltin Hey, you're not being stupid at all. From what my therapist explained, PTSD usually occurs from a single traumatic event. C stands for complex, meaning trauma that occurs over a long period of time. They are similar but quite different too.
Thank you for explaining the difference! Very helpful!
@@Peppermintytea Not a problem at all.
Cal I love your profile picture
This video made me feel so seen, especially the part about the tics. I've never come across such an open discussion of experiences with tics and PTSD/OCD, it's reassuring to know I'm not alone.
I don't have PTSD or OCD but have had my own stuff going on and I really appreciate you guys talking about this. Thank you :)
The way you both explained everything was really helpful and made a lot of sense to me. I'm currently in therapy and watching this video has made me understand things that I haven't been able to with my therapist. Thank you both for being so open and honest.
Best of luck with your therapy, Lou.
*love & light to everyone reading this* 🦋
As someone who lives with PTSD and complex PTSD I can’t thank you both enough for talking about this subject. My wife passed away at 25 after battling cancer since she was 21, with out a doubt the most traumatic experience of my life. I am definitely a different man now. By talking about these things it becomes more socially acceptable so a huge thank you!! ❤️
I’m gonna be honest, and I wonder if anyone else feels the same, I had never thought that I could have PTSD. I thought that the way I acted was normal until just now. Thank you for talking about it because I would have never allowed myself to think too deeply on it, if it wasn’t for you❤️
In no way shape or form is talking about problems a weakness. I see it as point of strenght, clear mind and will to educate/help others. I love you for the fortitude you show us! Live long and prosper!
Can I just say tell you how much I love you guys? Like I can't put into words how much you helped me and so many other people, so I'll just say I love you and wish you all of the happiness in the world ❤️
💖💖💖💙💙💜💜
OMG YES with the trauma timeline being unbelievable!!! I did mine in my therapy session with the therapist and I was like “she’s going to think I’m lying oh nonono” the whole time I was going through everything!
Hope you're doing well.
I love how you spoke on the topic but kept the humor in. Your willingness to be transparent will surely help someone. Thank you Rose and Rosie for always be honest and open with you supporters and fans.
I am a trainee psychologist (1 year to go) and it is so helpful to hear your side (the client's side) of the story. I have been following your channel since the very beginning, and I'm really glad that you Rosie have taken up the course to become a therapist. Some of us psychologists/therapists have been the most hurt, but directing that into a positive outcome to benefit others, is a reward in itself. Sending love to you too Rose (always need supporters like you)
Shout out to Rose for suppressing her inner Chandler Bing so well lmao
In all seriousness though, thank you so much for making this video and being so brave to talk about something so personal. I wish I had these kind of videos to watch when I was going through it. You tend to feel so crazy and alone and it's nice to know you're not.
Rosie, you are so strong and such a wonderful person and I'm glad you said you are happy in a way because these things made you who you are. Everything happens for a reason, even if we don't know it at the time. Everything you have been through has made you the amazing person we all love today and I'm glad you want to help others with your story.
Love you guys so much! Keep being awesome ❤️
Being vulnerable, showing your vulnerabilities, has nothing to do with weakness! Thank you for sharing.
Saw it when it when it was uploaded and somehow stumbled upon it again / rewatched it. :)
as someone with trauma, ocd type anxiety and dpdr, this was a really good and useful video, hopefully once my brain comes online again i'll be able to process my shit and be ok. Related a lot to the stuff about hypervigilance and avoidance, sort of structure my life around that haha
This is the best articulation I’ve seen of the way mental illnesses can impact your life, and how they interact with each other.
I don’t normally comment, but I just love hearing your thoughts and real experiences on mental health. It’s helped me so much to not feel alone, please keep doing it!
This video just further proves that you guys deserve to have 1 million subscribers. You truly care about connecting with your audience and sharing your true authentic selves. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
This was such a great video! I totally agree with what Rose said at the end: there is a lot of value in people sharing their own experiences with mental illnesses. It never really occured to me that Rosie was suffering like that. Hearing how it all manifested for her feels very validating, because to me anxiety issues can often make you feel very worthless and silly. I applaud both of you for facing your fears, it's never easy to do.
I think one thing that both of you do so outstandingly is normalising things that society still deems taboos. You both manage to live so authentically, and that means accepting the good with the bad, and always make me feel free by making me feel human. It's a wonderful thing to experience and I want to thank you for it!
If you decide to make another mental health chat, I'll definitely watch it!
you guys talking about serious things whilst still being able to be lighthearted is honestly so amazing and helpful. You’re bringing light to important things that can help so many people whilst making us laugh 😭
Who is the one dislike? I just wanna talk. I haven’t even watched the video yet and I’m already ready to snap on anyone that’s coming with negativity.
I fucking love rose's humor. And Rosie seems so sweet. I love you guys both so much and I've only just found your channel. You are EXCELLENT!!
So glad you guys decided to do this! I'm 2 minutes in and I'm loving how nervous Rose is that she's gonna make a joke lmao
Rose & Rosie thankyou so much for sharing something so personal and giving us all hope🤗.
People often brag about their strengths and hide their weaknesses..but you faced yours head-on and that's how you grow. It's a process that takes time.
I love my current therapist. I have been dealing with depression, anxiety, bipolar type 2, and then diagnosed with PTSD recently
Here's wishing you a hell of a lot of resilience, Kaitlin and a mountain of love.
graceygrumble thank you. So far, I have been able to keep going. I was diagnosed with much of it 20 years ago.
@@kait6994 That's a long, hard road. You have my utmost admiration. Keep travelling in hope, Kaitlin. x
graceygrumble thank you. ❤️❤️
I’ve been dealing with my PTSD for a while over assault that happened as a child and I can’t express how it feels to see you talk about this sort of thing. Thank you thank you thank you for talking about it. It’s like you’re speaking directly to me. I don’t know how to express how this feels. Bless you Rosie. I am right here with you.
Thank you for creating such a safe space. I don’t think you’ll ever know how much you help people.
I had v bad ptsd for 4 years of my life and it's so good to hear you talk about this. thank you 💘
Sending you both a massive hug. You're both so brave and strong. Rose's clarification about making jokes was so useful for me to know as a highly sensitive person. Well done for being so vulnerable and honest
PS you both look SO hot and beautiful in this. Some subscribers are way too nit picky about cuts etc, who cares? You're human. I wouldn't have even noticed the foundation lol
I love you two so much. Strong, lovely, caring and amazing women. Very proud of you
EMDR therapy helped me immensely. I was bottling things up that I thought I was “over with.” Couldn’t have been more wrong. Thank you for opening up about your experience and being so well spoken about it.
Good to hear. Here's hoping you're coping!
Thank you guys for talking about this! My therapist just suggested EMDR to me last month for trauma I didn't even know I had and it kind of scared me, so knowing that there are others that have truly benefited from it is amazing! Thanks for always keeping it real ladies, it's why we love you! xxx
this legit helped me so much to know i’m not like this crazy person using PTSD when i haven’t been to war and still being valid in my feelings so thank you
Don't be ashamed or apologetic; hold your head up and keep going forwards.Wishing you all the best, Campbell.
I hope Rosie ends up being my therapist one day because just knowing who she is I know she’d completely just understand how to do it and would be great and empathetic and understanding but wouldn’t coddle you she’d call you out but still comfort you and that’s the best thing a therapist can do
And I would hire Rose to be my private detective
I watched this in an educational wa because I don’t have ocd or ptsd and didn’t relate to a lot of the video but the last part where they talk about how not having a label to it like OCD or PTSD made them feel just like a fucked up human is the exact same way I felt about my ADHD. I hated myself for a while because of what I did or felt like I couldn’t do and I still struggle with that a little but having a name to it makes it easy for me to deal with it and not hate myself. Thanks for this video!
I can’t thank you enough for talking about this so openly. I was very recently diagnosed with ptsd and it’s made me feel very alone. I’m in therapy and have been for years but thinking about having to relive my trauma to work through things is very scary to think about. Watching this really made me feel like I wasn’t the only person out there dealing with things like this, and you’ve made me hopeful that I can get better and go on to live a life where this doesn’t have as much power over me. Thank you so much ❤️
Thank you for being open about such a sensitive subject. I needed this. Hope everyone who has OCD and PTSD or any psych related disorder gets to see this very informative and relatable video.
Uncut series is great, I love it!
Thank you so so much for sharing all of this - I had some traumatic memories surface a couple of years ago and have since had a tic which I’ve been quite embarrassed and ashamed about (I’ve found I can usually control or at least minimise it, but it happens uncontrollably and quite intensely when I’m not fully conscious). I never realised it was something other people also experience - as sucky as it is, it’s really reassuring to know I’m not the only one
I think this is going to help so many people. Thank you
Thank you guys for sharing, I have ocd and ptsd and i don’t feel so alone and weird hearing yours stories
Hope you're well Emjay.Stay strong.
graceygrumble thank you! ❤️
I also have ptsd and am currently doing emdr. The things you said made me feel so, not alone, and it means a lot
Best of luck, Jordyn. Keep fighting.
Beautifully vulnerable and educational. I've got OCD but not PTSD, and I shake my head vigorously when I get an intrusive thought. You two are my heroes. I see myself in you and I admire you both so much. Thank you for the years of candid, honest, loving content.
