    Still can’t believe there were 4 people who were willing to help support me financially. Thank you!! 😭 I’ve been wanting a pair of AirPod Pros so I can have noise cancelling all day (and not have to wear bulky over-ear headphones especially in the hot summer) for many months now and thanks to your donations soon I will be able to! I’m so grateful

    Hey! Thanks for posting this video! You're right, most people don't talk about their depression while in the thick of it. A few years ago I was in graduate school and had the darkest time of my life. I've never been so low. I talk about it now, but never really did back then. My mental health is a journey I am still walking through, as we all are. It's amazing to me that you're able to be so open and vulnerable like you are in these videos. You're doing great!
    Loved the section where you talked about your plushies! It's great to have something to make you instantly light up and smile about as you talk about it. It's those little glimpses of hope that will build over time for you. Keep it up!

I started journaling and that helped me a little. I also have a cat and she helps a lot. Not sure if you're in a place that allows animals but if you do, head over to the shelter and adopt! Having a dog or a cat as a companion can help with loneliness and bring joy to your life. And having a little creature to take care of and be responsible for may be what you need. :)

    YOUR SO AMAZING LITERALLY you wanna help people with depression despite not being in the best condition to do so which is why your amazing. Often times our struggles become our strengths. You can do it because you’ve been thru it. I laughed when you said you didn’t think you would be good enough to help others with depression because thats nonsense. You have a better understanding of your struggles more than any doctor or therapist. They weren’t able to cure it yet your still slowly but surely overcoming it with your own ingenuity. I sucked at art failed every art project I ever did since elementary school I thought I wasn’t creative enough to create my own ideas. I failed art class in high school and always got in trouble. The highest grade i ever got to without failing was 5th grade. I failed 6 7 8 grade and had to go to summer school twice struggled sumwhat through out high school been suspended from every school I’ve ever been. BUT I JUST GRADUATED ON TUESDAY OF THIS WEEK AND NOW IM A FASHION DESIGNER WITH MY OWN BRAND despite my past struggles and “sucking” at art. I FOUND MY OWN WAY MY OWN PATH AND YOU CAN TOO. I believe god has a purpose for all of us and that includes the pain and struggles. I believe god gives us struggles to prepare us for our blessings. I struggled with art now I’m an artist. I struggled with school and now I’m a graduate. Your struggles aren’t a curse it’s preparation for your life’s purpose, goals, and mission. It’s part of your unique story of self discovery, self love, and self acceptance

    Crying can really take it out of you. It's really harsh on your body. I know it can be tough to take care of yourself when you're feeling like this, but it's important to do so. Great that you're doing so much to get better, and that the support you're getting is making a big difference for you 🙂 glad to hear that your sister recovered- many don't. Don't feel bad that people are helping you, never feel bad for that. I do think that you're opening up a space for people to be open and vulnerable. Very few people would have the courage to do what you're doing. Reaching out for help is never easy, and being so honest is really hard especially in such a public space. Keep doing what you're doing, and keep getting better and taking care of yourself ❤ one day you'll see how this is helping people.
    My dad is like this too....has boxes and boxes of old stuff that he refuses to get rid of, no matter how much I try to help him. It takes up so much space. I still am not sure what to do to help him because I don't want to just throw his stuff out.
    Anyway, you have a lovely day Alina 😊

      ​@@Dman425I'm not saying it's not helpful to cry. It's good and healthy to cry, and it's healthy to let out those emotions. But anyone who has ever cried for hours knows that it's harsh on your body, it can be painful physically
      But it's still better than keeping the feelings pent-up inside. So I do agree with you, that you should cry when you need to and it's important that more people embrace that❤

    "I understand your pain. Trust me, I do. I've been through it. I've seen people go from the darkest moments in their lives to living a happy, fulfilling life. You can do it too. I believe in you. You are not a burden. You will NEVER BE a burden."Life is a combination of happiness and pain. Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. Having a broad perspective on life gives you the strength to move forward through painful times. Know that you are very much needed in this world. With all its infinite possibilities, this life is a gift for it can become a fountain of joy and happiness not just for oneself but for many others as well. Having depression does not mean you are weak, a failure, or worth less than anybody else. Please, don't discriminate against yourself. On your good days, write down your reasons to keep on fighting. Then, on your bad days, read over your list to give you strength.

    "In the beginning, the waves are 100 feet tall and crash over you without mercy. They come 10 seconds apart and don’t even give you time to catch your breath. All you can do is hang on and float. After a while, maybe weeks, maybe months, you’ll find the waves are still 100 feet tall, but they come further apart. When they come, they still crash all over you and wipe you out. But in between, you can breathe, you can function. You never know what’s going to trigger the grief. It might be a song, a picture, a street intersection, the smell of a cup of coffee. It can be just about anything…and the wave comes crashing. But in between waves, there is life.
    Somewhere down the line, and it’s different for everybody, you find that the waves are only 80 feet tall. Or 50 feet tall. And while they still come, they come further apart. You can see them coming. An anniversary, a birthday, or Christmas, or landing at O’Hare. You can see it coming, for the most part, and prepare yourself. And when it washes over you, you know that somehow you will, again, come out the other side. Soaking wet, sputtering, still hanging on to some tiny piece of the wreckage, but you’ll come out."

    I like to spend the time with you. You need not be ashamed of talking (so long) when people enjoy your company. I think it is great that you are willing to share as much as you do about your life. I can relate to so much of it as I have been there and am still there. I would tell you to talk to me as long as you want cuz I can relate and share stories which makes people feel less alone with their battles. As far as some others on youtube. I am friends with a young lady on here who now has a huge following. SHe has a bubbly online personality but struggles behind the scenes. BTW I like your shirt. Flashback to early childhood. :) *hugs*

    I hear many ppl say once they start looking at their own emotional health, that they crave to live a more minimalist lifestyle. The phrase from Fight Club, "the things you own, end up owning you", comes to mind. I have also heard the white room thing alot, like life will then be a blank slate or unblemished if the environment matches that viewpoint. This is a fascinating, much more upbeat and more spirited you coming out. Hold onto the feeling! Your personality comes out more each time. Maybe the objects(and not relinquishing them) are like little bookmarks from our history, that we can tie to stories and events, to help us remember our histories/ timelines easier. I think i am guilty of holding onto keep sakes and sentimental objects for the good memories they carry. Nothing wrong with that as long as new memories can be room for too! Discard some of the things that hold you back. You do help people with this vids, but if you continue improving, you will get even better at it! Really nice to see you in a better place. Keep the faith my friend. My favourite pumpkin was the Reece's one, because i am totally addicted to the peanut butter cups😇😂. Have peace and continue finding the happiness!!

    🎃 This is your BEST VIDEO YET 🥳 I loved 9:08 with all the plushes ! My room has plenty of teddy bears and other stuffed animals. Over the past few years I had to start selling lots of old ones because I accumulated huge bags full of them and it was way too many to have. Yes, I am also a bit of a minimalist as well and sometimes it is hard to part ways with some things I just needed to sell to have less to worry about 💆🏻‍♂️✅
    I feel your pain. I have a few dark scary times of my life that I can share today all thanks to overcoming such times and learning from them. It all made me stronger and thats how I can relate to others with my good and bad experiences just as you do. I would LOVE to see you do more artwork and get back on that pole because both activities are SUPER healthy for your mind, body and emotions 🎨🩰
    You can even post your new artwork and pole dancing content to teach others your talents. These are skills that many would highly enjoy seeing you do. Your garage seemed very quiet and peaceful. Perhaps parking outside and making an office there would be cozy if the temperature and ventilation is nice in there. Many people have their workstations in the garage for that reason 🧐
    I love that lights in your room and the pumpkin decorations. You have so much space and ideas to work with to create very interesting and fun content. Im 100% sure we will enjoy hearing more fun stories and see new artwork along with pole dancing because dancing is a beautiful and healthy way to express oneself and teach others a fun exciting way to exercise as well ♥️
    Thank you for the BEST video you’ve made so far. Now I can see the strength and confidence shining through which is inspiring and very refreshing to see. Keep up this new positive momentum and look forward to more fun, relaxed content with plenty of smiles too ☺️🏆

    I broke through and I experienced feelings that are indescribable. I was... I was then in a place where where fear didn't exist. But the intensity of it is fucking insane I mean so if that wasn't a goddamn break through what the fuck is breaking through? If that's not a breaking through what the fuck is? you know, really it's how fucking intense it was it's like "good fucking god" And this is probably the worst bit this is the worst bit this is like the most thing I remember about the whole trip is when I burst through something everything just went silent and I mean like not silent as in silent, I mean fucking silent, I mean you would not hear this silence anywhere on this earth. There was no wind like nothing I mean like just dead. And I was in- in nothing I was like in nothing It wasn't even, I couldn't even call it darkness I can't say I was like in like a place of darkness it was nothing, it was literally nothing. And it was like, this lasted for like this felt like it was going on forever ever and actually I just like was like I'm dead, I'm dead I'm dead. By the way I couldn't think, I didn't like think I was dead it was like I was aware that I was dead and I couldn't even think or anything I was just there. There was no feelings there was no bliss no- n- there was no negative feelings no positive feelings. It just was.

    To me it sounds you want to help other people by give meaning to your mental illness. Even when you believe you're not articulating your feelings well, the feelings you show will resonate with some people. For example, it resonates with me that you want your depression to have some positive meaning to other people. In turn, that is strengthen my believe that my depression also has a positive meaning. And from experience I know it has.
    You might interpret this assertion as indirect evidence that your mental illness has meaning and purpose 😛

    I know im going to get the "god doesn't exist" reply, so thanks ahead of time for that. Im not the preacher jumping up and down at 1 am in the morning or bible thumping. I do, however, let my testimonies speak for themselves. Hard to explain in a youtube comment. Heres the cliff notes- 2 years ago. Lots of things happened. Wanted to ki11 myself. Couldnt sleep. (I didnt sleep 3 months straight) called 9 eight eight everyday for months. Was given multiple pills to sleep which didnt work. Drs were and most are useless. Fast forward, 2 years later, sleep completely restored , no pills and im doing a lot better. I still have tough days but nothing like the depression i went through 2 years ago where i literally was depressed to the point i couldnt move, get out of bed, eat , or want to shower. I had "situational depression" due to something I went through. I fall short of God and feel I dont deserve his or anybodys love for that matter BUT he is the only reason i got through what I did. Theres literally no explanation. Not to mention, my friend (brother ive known 20 years) flew in from florida this past week. The pastor in florida gave him permission to baptize me and his mom, who has lung and brain cancer. My friends moms mom said are you sure thats a good idea to go in your condition? She just got out of the icu a couple of days ago and drove 30 minutes with us, and the beach supplied my friends mom with a beach accesbile wheelchair that can roll into the water. I was submerged. His mom was kind of in the water but my friend dumped the water on his moms head with his hands. Her doing this in her condition was miraculous. In conclusion, if you told me 15 years ago that my friend I was jumping rooftop to rooftop with in Chicago, pissing off rooftops and throwing sht at people from rooftops was going to baptize me I wouldve said youre f crazy. With that being said , thank you for reading. I will pray for you.
