    Every gen z needs to see this. We should not be as “nostalgic” over literally anything and everything. And I’m so tired of it. We are all still so young and have much more of life to go through. Please, do not fall into that trap. Wish you all the best. ✌️

      @CarCar264 this makes such an important point. Nostalgia is okay to feel but not to get stuck into. It seems like almost everything now has turned such a bitter-sweet emotion into a cash grab or a time consumer.

      felt. I'm so nostalgic and mourning my childhood nowadays that I can't enjoy life anymore. I don't know how to stop, I...I just miss the carefree days. I miss being wild and running outside with my friends all afternoon. I miss it.

    As a 17 years old teenager i approve that from 12 to 15 people see life so depressing specially if they are using social media so much. By 16, people start understanding life better, and by 20, they often become happier and more mature. This phase is adolescence, and it’s normal-everyone goes through it.

      Mostly same
      But I just turned 15 and thought things would get better because that's what everyone says
      But I realized it won't because of abusive household
      And it won't be any better or easier when im adult because I'm special needs and doing adult things like taxes and having a job and bills
      I just can't do all of that

      @Mystic_Dreamers You're not alone in feeling this way-many people live in abusive households and face similar struggles. I have one too. Out of 8 billion people in the world, millions are suffering from hunger, war, cancer... Paying bills and taxes is a normal part of life, and everyone has to deal with it. There's no way around it, so don't let it bring you down. Stay strong 🫶🏻🌸

    This reminds me of how I felt last year. But then I started to pick back up some stuff I loved before.
    I got a hoola-hoop, I started to use more color in my art, sing when I’m home alone, listen to more positive music, watch cartoons from when I was a kid,cry when I need to, dance in my room, read my Bible, delete most of my socials,ect. It can and will get better. All you have to do is take that first little step🩷thank you so much for making this

    I love how it goes from wonderful childhood eyes, to middle school age transitioning from the feelings of childhood to that huge drop in high school when everything is seething and melancholy. I’m 18 now and it’s gotten tremendously better, however I still cry from childhood nostalgia. On the path to healing my inner child with so many other people around the world💗 Thank you.

    i genuinely love this so much. i love the shots of the backyard- the same backyard that used to be so full of life from a child's eyes. as someone who is currently 14 and has felt this exact way for years and is only now getting away from it, i really adore the symbolism of every shot in this video. this is very very well done and i love it so much!! i love how the happy music slowed down once it got to the teenager's perspective, and the little birthday clip cutting to black to show how much they've grown since then. i love the bit of the unlit candle cutting to the wilting flower- absolutely gorgeous. this entire video is wonderful!

      @@created.to.create omg stop youre literally so sweet😭i literally love everything about this little film of yours! i adore how well you are able to perfectly convey emotions and a full story even without words! that's something that is really difficult to do, and i can tell you're very good at it! you deserve all the appreciation anyone can give, definitely! i absolutely adore how the clips from the child's perspective are rather fast-paced and very colorful and light, showing how childhood seems to move fast and how children tend to only see the good in things, compared to how the clips from the teenager's perspective are rather slow, fairly dreary and there is a lot less of them. i love love love the lack of color in the teenager's perspective clips!! i also adore the few clips in the teenager's perspective of the childhood toys- showing the person reminiscing though how they don't seem to matter much to the person anymore. absolutely gorgeous work! the shot of the makeup vanity and the lana posters (omg love lana fr!!) definitely hit me the hardest though. to me, it seemed like that was a symbolism for individuality (and beauty standards) and how much a lot of teens (including myself) struggle with that!! it just shows how almost all of a sudden, you realize just how many problems you have once you become a teenager, and it's difficult to find the life in things like the backyard trampoline or the childhood teddy bear. i could go on for hours about this work, absolutely stunning!! i subscribed immediately and will definitely be waiting to see more from you!! don't give up!

    when i turned 10, in a few months, i moved to another country 10km away from where i was raised the first 10 years of my life, where my mother is from, this country is very different in many ways, speak another language, cultural differences, not getting to see my friends, for the first few years, especially the first one- i felt really lost, gloomy like the video shows, i felt like i didnt belong, i was scared to approach people and i would go to the school bathroom everyday to cry because i didnt want my parents to know i felt bad, i’d lie to them through my teeth holding my tears “im fine”, i would cry for the most mininal reasons at school, just to not cry at home. at night i often imagined the idea of what life would be if i didnt exist, if i wasnt here on earth. Nowadays, im 13, i finally established myself in this new country and i look at life with a similar approach of the first part of the video, planning what i’ll do next, always occupied, living the movie of life and doing interesting things all the time, hanging out with my friends, playing my guitar and realizing that for my own sanity, life is not that deep. thank you for this video, it helped me connect with my hardships and overcoming them.

    Sometimes it just feels like your whole world is breaking. Like thee’s no end to the sadness. Like there’s no light at the end of the tunnel, so you might aswell go back. But as you continue down that tunnel, you start seeing a glimpse of light, and that keeps you going. Some people stop right before they see the light. Honestly, i get to the point whee the tunnel gets longer and longer, like it never ends. But sometimes you have to keep going. Even if there are times you want to give up. Sometimes you start heading back, but look back and see that small light shining and continue. And sometimes, the light disappears. But there’s always a light, just sometimes it’s out of sight. Think of everything you have. Your likes, your dislikes, thinks that make you feel bright inside, some things that make the light harder to see, your friends, your family… all of these things can be positive or negative, but they all make *you*. The unique mess that is combined to make the person you are. There’s nobody out there quite like you.
    I don’t see the light. But i know it exists. It’s out there, and it’s all that keeps me going. Sometimes i have to take breaks, other times i’m sprinting down the tunnel, trying to get a glimpse. Sometimes i do get the glimpse, sometimes i don’t. I’ve thought of giving up, but i can’t. Because i couldn’t do that. To my friends, to my family. Even to the people who have bullied me. You help me get through it.
    *You. Cant. Stop. Me.*

    this is quite possibly the sweetest video ive seen on UA-cam💗 i feel like older people (parents, teachers, ect.) don’t realize how much a kid/teenager can actually struggle. We are being told “oh you don’t have mental health issues you’re only a kid” as if being a kid qualifies as being completely mentally healthy. Not everything is easy even for a kid. I love to see descriptiveness and meaning this video has. Whoever you are i love
    You and your life matters. You’re not dramatic, or stupid for any way you feel mentally. ❤

    A really simple, yet effective video. I sometimes feel stupid for feeling nostalgic over things because I'm still really young, even if other people around my age may feel the same.
    I've been struggling with my mental health for years now (even pre-covid) and it still hasn't been getting much better, even after years of medications and therapy. I still have thoughts about death and hopelessness, and it all really does feel like the world, life, everything just feels like it's getting more bleak and worn out. I wish I could just flick a switch in my brain to not be so obnoxiously depressing.

    I might only be 14 but so far the last two years has been hard for me. But I also tend to find joy in small things and I’ve been finding a lot of happiness in sonic for some reason but bc again I’m 14 everyone makes fun of me all bc I try to enjoy the little things. I donno. I just kinda needed a small vent. I’ve been the therapist friend and now I I’m the one who needs therapy. How.. delightful

      Anyone can struggle no matter their age, don’t let anyone tell you that it’s not valid because you are young. I’m 14 as well and I know many people who have been through or going through the same thing as you, I hope things get better for you. xxx

    Amazing short film it's so relatable ever since I turned 13 I started feeling this way I like not liking the idea of being a teenager. Now I've gotten used to it I've gotten more opportunities and learned more about people that I knew before or didn't. I will be turning 14 in two months and I'm just grateful I've made it this far because unforantely
    some people haven't or aren't able to just be a kid. To anyone feeling depressed and wanting to give up please don't. Because it's not something that you can take back they're always someone who loves you are thinks about you

    i REALLY felt this, but at the same time want to remind everyone (and hope to remember myself) that even though life isnt as easy anymore, that doesnt mean it doesnt have its bright moments. im finishing up my sophomore year in high schol right now, and honestly, ive never felt so...down? just like unmotivated, unexcited and everytime we drive past my elementary school i LONGG to go back. but the truth is, that isn't possible. even if life sucks, this sounds horribly tone-deaf and cringe but i mean it in the best way- looking for the bright, positive moments is key. for me that's just the 30 minutes of lunch i get to spend with my friends, looking forward to whats for dinner after doing a shitload of homework, winning at team games during PE, bickering with my brother and cousins, watching my favorite shows and listening my favorite artists, taking walks outside when the suns out.... and on and on. even though it doesnt seem like there are a lot of these moments, theres beauty to every stage of life. high school sucks but we're going to get through this, so keep enjoying the little things!!

    This short film is so emotional.. even though i don't relate to it personally I can see where you're coming from. Everything used to be so simple and care free! But now it feels like everyday's the same. Time goes by so fast, too fast. Yet some moments it feels like time is standing still. You captured the emotion perfectly!
    Unrelated question: what editing program did you make this in?

    Why did this give a this memory that I don’t even remember if it happened or not anymore because at the beginning of the video I was trying to remember times in my life when I was younger that I had a bunch of toys like that and I couldn’t remember a time when I did, but I did remember that I went to this family’s house and stayed their for a night and at the house they had a bunch of toys like that and I wasn’t allowed to play with the toy if the kid who it belonged to said no even if the kid wasn’t even playing with it because I “wasn’t their kid” I remember having homemade waffles for breakfast and the parents asked if I liked waffles I said yes even tho I hated them (still do ) I don’t remember how I got to their house I don’t remember why i was there. I just remember my dad calling them “ our friends “ I don’t remember sleeping there either and I don’t even know if that truly happened I just remember very detailed parts of information and Ik I was very young at the time maybe 3 or 7? Ik when I was around those ages my dad would get too dr!nk to take care of me and my brother and I think when I went there my mom was busy or something I remember complaining abt how horrible my stay at their house was to my mom she said something like “sorry I couldn’t be there for u instead “
    Yk I’m starting to wonder was that foster care or something idk if any police or anybody else was involved tho
