Am I the only one who constantly thinks about what kind of response I would give to Thoraya for all the questions she asks in each episode if I ever meet her on the street someday?
A 10 min Thoraya video typically takes me 11-12 min to finish, because a part of watching it is to pause it after watching the first couple of people and think about what my own response would be 😂🤣
same. and i'm almost 40 and it's very scary. feels like there's no point in trying now, that it's a waste of time, and that the purpose of life is to just be addicted to something and seek dopamine where ever it can be found. there's no use for passion, love, or friends, because i also want to avoid rejection. so drugs, basically. life is drugs.
Rest assured, you are not the only one. It also presents as a deep understanding for people, too, which makes me feel guilty at times, because I get people's motives easily, but others interpret it often as me feeling or thinking like the people whose motives I see. It is hard to describe, and even harder to distance myself from people who do bad stuff, or who think knowing the reasons behind equals being just the same as the ones eg wronging others.
Me. I'm an occasional overthinker Weird part about dramatically improving your life is you lose friends. I feel like an traitor and weirdo now. So I watch these to remind myself I'm just a human trying to get by. And eventually I'll create new friends. But in the meantime it's uuuhg lonely.
Am I the only one who experiences a deep, fundamental sense of loneliness that feels unresolvable, no matter how close you get with people, no matter how much time you spend with anyone?
Am I the only one.. when I meet old people or even see them . I instantly imagine, how their lives were when they were younger. I mentally create a life for them in my head. She was a flapper girl, he was a young mechanic. they met through her sister at the spring fling dance in 1932.

I love going outside and letting the rain fall on me when I have the freedom to just get wet and as soon as I want I can go indoors and change out of those clothes. I feel so alive in the rain. I have trouble relating with sunshine people.
Same! It’s such exciting weather!!! I love how it’s so beautiful yet chaotic, that sometimes it’s a perfect drizzle and it’s sometimes an epic storm! I love the smell, the feeling, the occasional sunshine peaking through the clouds making each raindrop glow!!!
I feel soo much the guy struggling with jealousy! It's so taboo and so drastically condemned by society that it's really difficult to process these feelings and not to just suffocate them or avoid them. Jealousy is linked to personal insecurities and suppressing it feeds loads of other insecurities as well, creating a scaring vicious cycle 😪
Have you ever found anything to help ease jealousy? Do you have any idea where it started for you? I'm so curious bc its not something I think I've ever experienced. My childhood was garbage and I'm surprised that didn't ignite some jealousy in me but it didn't. The closest thing I've ever felt is frustration when trying to do something that's easy for everyone else. I totally get down on myself and wish I was "better" but it's never in relation to someone else. I'm just eternally losing a constant competition w myself over here lol
@@pocasanchez hi! What helps me is trying to rationalise it. I analyse what is making me uncomfortable to see if it is something stupid or that I have no control over it. (By stupid I mean some online dynamics that allow you to be in somebody else's life when you really aren't). I try to tell myself that what matters is the time I physically spend with others and that nobody is criticising me when I'm not there: I'm simply not there so nobody will think about me! They're going to have fun with what they have exactly as we do when I'm with them ("them" could be friends,family or significant others): focusing on the present and on the people we have around!
This is linked to the fact that for me jealousy is especially the "frustration of not being there", like a fear of missing out! I think is linked to the fear of people forgetting about me and, at the same time, to the fear of people judging me. I spent a lot of time in my childhood playing a sport: all my coaches were always stressing the importance of showing up to every event they organised even if you didn't have a competition in that event. With these events they were trying to gain new athletes and earn some more money, things that absolutely wouldn't have had any type of return/reward for me. My parents didn't want me to help them and so I got judged and sort of excluded by my coaches and teammates during trainings and competitions, in a subtle and consuming way. I now think that my parents were right but at the time my coach's and teammates' voices were stronger and this led to that sense of guilty and exclusion that I still feel today!
It's clearly not all of the story but it's everything I processed and accepted so far. Thank you for letting me have a mental sum up on my ideas about jealousy. Let me know if you understand everything (Italy) and what are your thoughts on the subject!
@Gio-sw9md @Gio-sw9md welcome, glad to be of service! Lol thanks for the insight! IMO though, I think you may be misunderstanding jealousy a bit. It sounds like you're dealing w things like maybe FOMO, social anxiety, people pleasing, being overly self-critical etc. To me, jealousy is very close to envy. It's wanting something that someone else has and may stem from something like your sister being prettier than you, or your friend getting that promotion that you really wanted, or someone dating your crush who rejected you, or seeing other peoples vacation pics and wishing that was you, ya know? Idk, maybe I'm misunderstanding you but you really don't sound like a jealous person IMO!
There's a bunch of research on deja vus, actually. One of the strongest theories is that you process the input you're presently living in the area of the brain that usually processes memories so you live the present time with the feeling that it is a memory.
Deja Vu is a whole different beast for me. I have epilepsy and before a bad seizure I have the worst deja Vu that feels like impending doom. It makes me sick to the point I start to vomit. Craziest feeling ever. I do have scar tissue on my frontal lobe which is responsible for memory. I do have horrible memory problems after my motorcycle accident too. I'll forget stuff that nobody should forget.
It can't just be the brain processing memories.. Deja vu makes those who believe in reincarnation even more valid and those that always feel a midsing piece in their lives and find out that someone somewhat out there is doing or feeling or thinking of the axact same thing. If you Literally stop dead in your tracks durring a moment you swear you've experienced before....it has to be that we humans are also living in rotation just like the planets. Coz where else? No Jesus ain't coming back, coz we have been telling the same tale every century to a different version of ourselves 😅
What about when you are dreaming with a complete random situation and it feels like a deja vu but it can't be and you wake up and then months pass by and the situation that felt like a deja vu that you remember dreaming happens irl? Because that has happened to me in several occasions 😅
Am I the only one who imagines themselves living a different, fantasy life, meeting imaginary people, and enacting full-fledged conversations in their heads while lying awake before sleep takes them? Like, almost mentally playing a role in a script written by yourself before falling asleep?
Am I the only one who feels nostalgic with gratitude when I remember those strangers I have met in my childhood? knowing that I won't ever get to meet these people again and that they exist somewhere at the same time I do.
OMG!! No you're not!! I still think about the older gentleman when I was 15 yrs old. Traveling on the Greyhound back home..I had no money and he gave me $5 . Back then I was able to get a whole value meal at McDonald's when the bus stopped. I always wonder if he is ok!
Am I the only one that still today (18 years old) acts like a child. Because if I love something, a book or series, I wanna love it fully. No matter where I am, when I'm talking about something that I like, you're gonna see me jumping around and being very passionate about it
No, you are definitely not ( im 49) i still have thingss from my childhood that bring me joy just knowing they are there. i have my so lots of my toys, comics, books and games from when i was a kid all they way tilll now. HOLD on to that passion tight...the world will try and a kill it.
I am 38 and I still do it... keep doing it yourself and never let go of it! The world will do its damn best to make you grow up... and no matter if others say that you MUST and HAVE to, no you dont, you should be responsible that s a different thing, but you dont have to "grow up"
that's living my friend. with the pandemic I feel generation z/alpha specifically missed some sort of learning stage. Now that is doing a wrap around and people don't know why they feel this way but that is exactly why.
That woman talking about marriage.. I completely agree. I’m married with three kids. I’m ok with my marriage but recently I’ve had some revelations and feel the exact same way as her. I’ll never again bug someone about getting married. Soft White Underbelly had a great interview with a divorce lawyer regarding this!
Oh great great video recommendation! I just watched it a week ago and sent it to my partner, whose brother is currently divorcing and we talked so much about if we should even get married and why and for whom even? Wish you the best!
@mommydearest8721: It's just important to recognize what's important. Is having the butterflies your whole life an important goal? Marriage might not achieve that, but may achieve other important things that a human needs in life.
@mommydearest8721: I think, ideally, we would be sceptical about any mindset whether we have it or don't. Being sceptical about marriage and about being with someone forever is fine and good. However, the things that make one have doubts about that kind of thing are in themselves mindsets according to certain assumptions. My example was, roughly, assuming that having butterflies your whole life is a satisfying, realistic, important goal. We can always try to chase something that we think would be amazing, but that's not necessarily going to make us happy because of the possibility of failing to get it, or, that even when we get what we thought we wanted, eventually we don't want that anymore and start to get regrets. It's worth at least considering those considerations. It need not be that way, but the way to avoid this problem is to be aware of the assumptions you're making about a good life, whether they are traditional assumptions or the total opposite or somewhere in between. We make assumptions and we don't want to get trapped in them. "The unexamined life is not worth living," regardless of whether your life fits a tradition or not. Don't let tradition or anything else cloud or deter your introspection. Perhaps you could communicate to your spouse about your situation, and maybe you two would agree about how it's going, and perhaps that mutual understanding in itself could be a connection that you share, in that you both understand the challenges that the other is going through, and just knowing that someone gets that makes it easier, even if on the individual level, it's not easy for either of you.
I watched that video, with the divorce lawyer. That was beyond so real , and what a great speaker. He was so right on. Folks are thinking about marriage. Should watch it. Myself am married, but could be happy being single.
I think from a young age we are taught that marriage is a must do and we can’t be happy and without it we can be happy. Happiness is an individual experience some can be happy married and others love the freedom of being single. Finding what works for your heart is what’s important not what others think you should do
Am I the only one who feels like I'm the perfect everyone to myself? Sometimes feel like I'm my own best friend, brother, mate, fan, father, and son. It's like I become 2 people and talk to myself. For example some days I would give myself advice like a dad teaching his son, or tell myself not to worry because I'll be my best friend help during a difficult time. Its like I become how I think a friend should be.
You're definitely not alone in this. No one knows us better than we know ourselves. In this situation, though, I wonder if this is only true for people who have done a lot of self work/growth to get to know themselves on a deeper level... Therefore, knowing exactly how to comfort themselves from within, whereas most people seek comfort outwardly. 🤷🏽♀️
Am i the only one who thinks that, sometimes being strong is very tiringgg,but you got no choice other than being stronggg and keep going. Day by day, step by step.. and to make yourself feel good, im always said to myself.. "one step at a time and smiles" 🦋
@@libratude9595 that's not living... That's called "survival mode" & u have to choose if u will stay in that mode, or get yourself to a place where u no longer have to.... Choose the right pill!! 💊
It is safe to feel and relax, Erlyn. Give yourself permission to breathe deeply and feel, then you can keep going. I know, it is better said than done, it took me time and practice. All the best ❤
No it's not just you, I am young but i don't remember the last time i was really happy. good things still happen but i don't really think i feel anything anymore
My happiness is mundane. No social life because I like being alone. If I have friends, it will take years before they are invited to my home. My happiness is working with my hands to craft almost everything in my house, I would make Victorian style furniture and aesthetics. I'm very much a creature of comfort ^_^
I've been having a rough year with my health. No doctors know what's wrong with me. It's hard to even remember basic things these days, and I have no energy. Thanks for sharing such uplifting content, it always makes me happy to watch your videos.
That could be a number of things. Try not to give up looking for a doctor that WILL find the cause of what is going on with you. I say that because for many years I had some health issues and no doctor could ever figure it out, they would just guess. Now, over 20 years later I know what's wrong and dealing with it daily. Some days are harder than others, but I just try to focus on the good of everything.
The third one IS SO RELATABLE. I always think that people secretly hate me or think I'm annoying and they're just being nice to me. I think it stems from the fact that I once had terrible roommates who were not very nice people and clearly hated me, though never said it to my face.
Am I the only one who LOVES this channel and thinks you are an AMAZING content creator. People like you deserve to be influencers and make loads of money, not people doing dances or pranks.
Thoraya influences me and many others to be more empathetic. I would say she is one of the best real influencers. Also maybe Thoraya does not need loads of money and values these interactions more than fame or wealth?
damn if we expressed this as humans on a daily, we would be so connected, inspired, innovative, and come up with solutions! I love this series so much. 🤟
OMG. Same here. Just this morning, I was telling my daughter I wish we had 48 hours in a day and didn't need sleep. We'd get so much done that way. Lols
I understand this feeling completely! Why is it that nature has made it so that we have to spend an entire third of our lives just lying down and doing nothing? It's so annoying!
Am I the only one who finds comfort in melancholy?! Thoraya is such a magnificent videographer, everyone in your videos looks so real and beautiful in their own natural way! love ya! best channel on this platform. enjoy the daily melancholy
Am I the only one that still believes in (real, healthy) love. It seems like people care more about what they can "gain" or playing victim or persecutor, or afraid of getting hurt deciding to "go their own way". Am I the only one who loves fully and bravely.
You’re not, but I hope to one day gain the confidence to love this same way. It’s exhausting and painful living and loving from a place of fear and insecurity and struggling to combat it. I admire you.
Same. I've had these weird moments every once in while where I can't help but find my existence, my awareness of it and just the existence of everyone and everything else in general to be incomprehensibly miraculous. It's really surreal when it happens.
These confessions are surely interesting. People come in and say things and we learn or take what we can in return. Overall, we always look forward to see more.
I really needed this tonight. I am struggling with changing a lot as a person and growing apart from my friend group. It is nice to feel connected to people through this video. Thanks
We definitely need more trash cans! I understand logistically it would require more workers to empty them, but it's so needed! Not just in big cities either. If we give people more places to throw things out, maybe they wouldn't litter as much.
Yes, but I am 48. I realize I have to work to change my life for the better. I have worked on myself but things change little by little for the better. Not in one day.
For the deja vu thing, I once heard that it’s the version of you from a parallel universe that’s doing the exact same thing at the same time as you in this universe. So the lines kinda “cross” and that’s why you get that feeling. I LOVE that, and I’ve gone with that answer since lol
Am I the only one who thought that little girl was gunna suprise us all by saying something so profound but ends up just saying "ducks" ... lol... my mind went to "I like turtles" immediately lol
I read an article that said it's possible deja vu happens when the brain misinterprets the current moment as a memory hence the feeling that it has happened before.
I immediately cried when I heard him saying that and I don’t cry easily. I really thought I was alone feeling like this. My friend calling my name, talking about things to me and I know they’re talking but I can’t hear them it’s all blurry. Everthing is blurry. I’m so relieved I’m not alone but also I’m sorry somebody going tru this
When I was a kid - raised by a single-working-mom - I spent summers with my grandparents (mom had to work during my summer break). Consequently, I was around my grandparents' friends. Seeing what marriage turns into after 30-40 years shaped how I saw 'til death do us part'. These were not happy people. They were generally annoyed with - and resentful of - each other. The Oscar Levant quote "Marriage is a triumph of habit over hate" - while seemingly pessimistic - has a lot of truth to it. Some marriages are great....but a lot more are soul-suckers. I relate to the lady at 7:10.
Am I the only one who sometimes wonders if life is actually an escape game and those who choose to leave it early are the ones who have actually figured it all out?
Life is not an escape game, it's a mission. Choosing to leave early is believing the lies that make you disqualify yourself. Be courageous. May the Truth be revealed to you. :)
Am I the only one who’s guilty pleasure is when I’m talking to my friend and they are having a hard time explaining something. And i try and help them explain and they say, “YES that is exactly what I was trying to say!” It makes me feel so happy to help someone even in the littlest way possible.
To the person @7:13 - My wife and I have very different vows from anyone else I know. They say we will stay together "[...]as long as we compliment each other's happiness and are healthy for one another." We also based our vows off of a quote from Lord Elrond of Rivendell in Lord of the Rings which says “No oath or bond is laid on you to go further than you will. For you do not yet know the strength of your hearts, and you cannot foresee what each may meet upon the road.” By this, we are not married and promised to each other "til death do us part," but instead we are married for as long as we want. Yes, people can and do change. We accept this, and if we do part ways, its ok. It is part of life. Divorce/ parting ways is not a bad thing. Divorce/ parting ways is better than staying in an unhealthy marriage. Now this doesn't mean we just give up at the first hardship. We have gone through several hardships since getting married 2 years ago. And yes, I would be very sad if we parted ways, but we acknowledge that people change, and that is ok. We have the ability to parts ways and go upon our own chosen path. Also want to note we are both atheists so we are truly not bound by any promise to any god to stay together longer than we want. Write your own vows. Make life what you want it to be. You do not have to do what everyone else says you should do. We certainly didn't. I love our vows, and I think it is a beautiful thing 💚
That sounds so amazingly healthy, good on you both for having the consciousness to be yourselves and go your own ways! I appreciate you sharing this and setting a great example of how easy it can be to live outside the box. May you both grow in the same direction in similiar speed and be happy together as long as it will last! 💚💚💚
I know I'm not the only one who sees the world as it is, and it is very, very bad, but always ends the day asking myself, "Am I the only one who feels this way?"
If the last girl who is cynical about marriage can release herself from the societal pressure to find a husband, I think she could be quite happy having a string of shorter term relationships that set her sole on fire, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Not everyone has to subscribe to the same relationship model.
Except at 40 50 60 70 80 and if you are lucky 90.....there is no family community .Love and connection is not meant to be a soul fire passionate thing. It is a stage in nature. Look at how you feel about your best friends for guidance .
My boyfriend says marriage is for the children to have stability. We never had children so we never married. But we have been together for 12 years by choice
Am I the only one who has understood and dreaded the concept of my own death since I was a toddler? I actually cried about it as a toddler and then lied about why I was crying because I thought my mom and sister would get upset.
I understand what death is since I was 5 years old but I'm not afraid. In my case, it will be a relief. It would be better if I had never existed (and my wish is to disappear without leaving a trace since I never wanted to be here) My only fear is the PROCESS of dying: I can't stand any kind of PHYSICAL pain. Mental suffering is bad enough
@@13letras Even though I'm against death, I also wish I hadn't existed and that I didn't have to experience mental or physical suffering. I fluctuate between being suicidal for reasons most people would consider nonsense and being ok with things even though logically it doesn't make sense. I only feel true comfort when I believe that I will one day, somehow, make death a choice.
@@fitwesdaily I have a very clear reason why suicide is the only possible way out of a no-win situation. The problem is that I'm a coward because: a) I'm afraid of pain; b) I'm afraid of surviving with sequelae (my biggest fear) I don't think I will ever have the courage to make death a choice. But I'm genuinely envious of those who have it. Unfortunately, my physical health has always been excellent, so it is likely that I will die at a very old age.
I love these kind of videos because they remind me that we are all just humans. We are all learning and experiencing things our own way and we are walking our own path. I love being a human and i love seeing people live and experience stuff!!! Even though we are so different we all sometimes think about these silly little human things 🌸
Am I the only one who specifically frees up their weekends to just relax and do nothing and then regrets it when the weekend comes and wishes I planned something
1:45 I got really excited with the lady who practices writing with her non-dominant hand. I've made several attempts to do that since I was a kid, and now I can do a lot of things left-handed as well as right-handed: write, use a knife, throw a football. It feels really fulfilling when you get to a point that you can just do BOTH.
i think that deja vus tell you that you're on the right path, like you doing things right and just hit a checkpoint, and the deja vu reminds you of that. It's the path that was choosen for you and you didn't get of track yet..
Am I the only one who feels like there is something so fundamentally wrong with them for as long as they’ve been alive with crippling panic about it, not finding any relief or release for it, feeling fucking lonely and reading comments on videos to find any comfort?😣
work in healthcare. Several patients have reported they have done the blurry vision glasses off thing all their lives when they want a barrier between themselves and everything else to feel calmer more focused. incidentally they were also cool people you would want in your life.
I just want to say to the 3. guys who are afraid that they won't have real friends. I mean, if you've been friends for a long time, and it's true that you annoy your friends, I think it's like having a family - sometimes some of them annoy you from time to time, but in a lovely way they seem to accept you, no matter what you are doing or have something that annoys them. It's love! And I have some friends who upset me for so, so many times, but I still love them and accept them and spend time with them. Some of them I don't see sometimes for a long time, but they are still my friends. And it took me a long time to realize that you can be imperfect and still deserve love! ❤
Am I the only one who, even though I’m grateful for life, have always wished an apocalypse would happen and wash most everything and everyone away? 😢 So I may be mostly alone, not feel overwhelmed by life, people, the system and can just .. be
I practiced eating with my left hand in case I ever broke my right... didn't want to starve. Also writing. I now eat as much with my left as my right... and can still write with my left hand. I'm in my 50s, so I've had a lot of practice!
Am I the only one who feels like everybody hates me, even when they seem like they are being nice, I get this unshakable feeling that it's all an act. Part of me even interprets compliments as lies or passive aggression?
That kitty was so sweet. And the woman with the paws, you are not alone. Am I the only one who is both glad and ashamed about being an very early retiree and can sometimes use the chronic illness to avoid going out and stays i bed

7:14 No! You're not the only one, I'm 27 and I'm still not sure about marriage, I'm not fascinated by marriage, and I always keep avoiding relationships.
Ok, so my theory about Déjà vus is that they are things that happened in your dreams, and when they happen similarly in reality, you feel that it has already happened.
A lot of people connect it to dreams. What’s interesting is that we feel ties to dreams during this experience, but many people also feel a sense of timelessness. As in, all time is occurring at once rather than in a perceived linear or “flatted” way. Maybe our perception of time is like the shadow of what it truly is, it has more dimension to it. Either way, I feel like the key to understanding it is in the present.
Oh gosh this puts a smile on my face! I love the honesty.. weirdly enough once the „awkward“ thing is said it looses its heaviness and I can relate to so many things😊 thank you for your videos ❤
Another hypothesis about Deja Vu would be that a newly formed memory is not passing through your short term memory at all but skipping it altogether and ending up in your long term memory with the conscious mind becoming aware of this as it is occurring. To make sense of this your brain reaches the conclusion that this experience/event must have happened before.

I met her once in person and she didn't use the video, I was pretty bummed low key

Rest assured, you are not the only one. It also presents as a deep understanding for people, too, which makes me feel guilty at times, because I get people's motives easily, but others interpret it often as me feeling or thinking like the people whose motives I see. It is hard to describe, and even harder to distance myself from people who do bad stuff, or who think knowing the reasons behind equals being just the same as the ones eg wronging others.

Same! It’s such exciting weather!!! I love how it’s so beautiful yet chaotic, that sometimes it’s a perfect drizzle and it’s sometimes an epic storm! I love the smell, the feeling, the occasional sunshine peaking through the clouds making each raindrop glow!!!
Am I the only one who cries at goodbyes because I already miss spending time with these people?😢❤
No. I have this all the time, mainly with my dad. (I'm 31 btw)
Same here
I do that too!
OMG I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME
Same here
I feel soo much the guy struggling with jealousy! It's so taboo and so drastically condemned by society that it's really difficult to process these feelings and not to just suffocate them or avoid them. Jealousy is linked to personal insecurities and suppressing it feeds loads of other insecurities as well, creating a scaring vicious cycle 😪
Have you ever found anything to help ease jealousy? Do you have any idea where it started for you? I'm so curious bc its not something I think I've ever experienced. My childhood was garbage and I'm surprised that didn't ignite some jealousy in me but it didn't. The closest thing I've ever felt is frustration when trying to do something that's easy for everyone else. I totally get down on myself and wish I was "better" but it's never in relation to someone else. I'm just eternally losing a constant competition w myself over here lol
@@pocasanchez hi! What helps me is trying to rationalise it. I analyse what is making me uncomfortable to see if it is something stupid or that I have no control over it. (By stupid I mean some online dynamics that allow you to be in somebody else's life when you really aren't). I try to tell myself that what matters is the time I physically spend with others and that nobody is criticising me when I'm not there: I'm simply not there so nobody will think about me! They're going to have fun with what they have exactly as we do when I'm with them ("them" could be friends,family or significant others): focusing on the present and on the people we have around!
This is linked to the fact that for me jealousy is especially the "frustration of not being there", like a fear of missing out! I think is linked to the fear of people forgetting about me and, at the same time, to the fear of people judging me. I spent a lot of time in my childhood playing a sport: all my coaches were always stressing the importance of showing up to every event they organised even if you didn't have a competition in that event. With these events they were trying to gain new athletes and earn some more money, things that absolutely wouldn't have had any type of return/reward for me. My parents didn't want me to help them and so I got judged and sort of excluded by my coaches and teammates during trainings and competitions, in a subtle and consuming way. I now think that my parents were right but at the time my coach's and teammates' voices were stronger and this led to that sense of guilty and exclusion that I still feel today!
It's clearly not all of the story but it's everything I processed and accepted so far. Thank you for letting me have a mental sum up on my ideas about jealousy. Let me know if you understand everything (Italy) and what are your thoughts on the subject!
@Gio-sw9md @Gio-sw9md welcome, glad to be of service! Lol thanks for the insight! IMO though, I think you may be misunderstanding jealousy a bit. It sounds like you're dealing w things like maybe FOMO, social anxiety, people pleasing, being overly self-critical etc. To me, jealousy is very close to envy. It's wanting something that someone else has and may stem from something like your sister being prettier than you, or your friend getting that promotion that you really wanted, or someone dating your crush who rejected you, or seeing other peoples vacation pics and wishing that was you, ya know? Idk, maybe I'm misunderstanding you but you really don't sound like a jealous person IMO!
There's a bunch of research on deja vus, actually. One of the strongest theories is that you process the input you're presently living in the area of the brain that usually processes memories so you live the present time with the feeling that it is a memory.
Deja Vu is a whole different beast for me. I have epilepsy and before a bad seizure I have the worst deja Vu that feels like impending doom. It makes me sick to the point I start to vomit. Craziest feeling ever. I do have scar tissue on my frontal lobe which is responsible for memory. I do have horrible memory problems after my motorcycle accident too. I'll forget stuff that nobody should forget.
It can't just be the brain processing memories.. Deja vu makes those who believe in reincarnation even more valid and those that always feel a midsing piece in their lives and find out that someone somewhat out there is doing or feeling or thinking of the axact same thing. If you Literally stop dead in your tracks durring a moment you swear you've experienced before....it has to be that we humans are also living in rotation just like the planets. Coz where else? No Jesus ain't coming back, coz we have been telling the same tale every century to a different version of ourselves 😅
Wow, this is interesting.
@@nicedward7544 Although it's fascinating I'm sorry it's bad for you. :/
What about when you are dreaming with a complete random situation and it feels like a deja vu but it can't be and you wake up and then months pass by and the situation that felt like a deja vu that you remember dreaming happens irl? Because that has happened to me in several occasions 😅
Am I the only one who imagines themselves living a different, fantasy life, meeting imaginary people, and enacting full-fledged conversations in their heads while lying awake before sleep takes them? Like, almost mentally playing a role in a script written by yourself before falling asleep?
I do exactly the same, and thank you for sharing. We are not alone
Am I the only one who has trouble letting go of old friends when they already have moved on with their lives.
No, your not. I wonder if they ever think of me even though I think of them often.
Same
I love how most things are a universal experience or at least, very common. It just shows that we are more similar than we think
I was thinking about the exact same thing..
if only we were brave enough to lend our hands and hearts to the fellow beside us.
Am I the only one who feels nostalgic with gratitude when I remember those strangers I have met in my childhood? knowing that I won't ever get to meet these people again and that they exist somewhere at the same time I do.
OMG!! No you're not!! I still think about the older gentleman when I was 15 yrs old. Traveling on the Greyhound back home..I had no money and he gave me $5 . Back then I was able to get a whole value meal at McDonald's when the bus stopped. I always wonder if he is ok!
No, I'm here😊
Goodness yesss 💕
Yup! All the time..
Absolutely. I feel most sad thinking about the fact that I won't be able to know about them or meet them again ever.
Am I the only one that still today (18 years old) acts like a child. Because if I love something, a book or series, I wanna love it fully. No matter where I am, when I'm talking about something that I like, you're gonna see me jumping around and being very passionate about it
Never stop being a child. Just know when it's appropriate. ❤
No, you are definitely not ( im 49) i still have thingss from my childhood that bring me joy just knowing they are there. i have my so lots of my toys, comics, books and games from when i was a kid all they way tilll now. HOLD on to that passion tight...the world will try and a kill it.
I am 38 and I still do it... keep doing it yourself and never let go of it! The world will do its damn best to make you grow up... and no matter if others say that you MUST and HAVE to, no you dont, you should be responsible that s a different thing, but you dont have to "grow up"
We only get old when we no longer let our inner child play and be free
that's living my friend. with the pandemic I feel generation z/alpha specifically missed some sort of learning stage. Now that is doing a wrap around and people don't know why they feel this way but that is exactly why.
To you, who google big words just to make sure you are using it right... You are not alone ❤
That woman talking about marriage.. I completely agree. I’m married with three kids. I’m ok with my marriage but recently I’ve had some revelations and feel the exact same way as her. I’ll never again bug someone about getting married. Soft White Underbelly had a great interview with a divorce lawyer regarding this!
Oh great great video recommendation! I just watched it a week ago and sent it to my partner, whose brother is currently divorcing and we talked so much about if we should even get married and why and for whom even?
Wish you the best!
@mommydearest8721: It's just important to recognize what's important. Is having the butterflies your whole life an important goal? Marriage might not achieve that, but may achieve other important things that a human needs in life.
@mommydearest8721: I think, ideally, we would be sceptical about any mindset whether we have it or don't. Being sceptical about marriage and about being with someone forever is fine and good. However, the things that make one have doubts about that kind of thing are in themselves mindsets according to certain assumptions. My example was, roughly, assuming that having butterflies your whole life is a satisfying, realistic, important goal. We can always try to chase something that we think would be amazing, but that's not necessarily going to make us happy because of the possibility of failing to get it, or, that even when we get what we thought we wanted, eventually we don't want that anymore and start to get regrets. It's worth at least considering those considerations.
It need not be that way, but the way to avoid this problem is to be aware of the assumptions you're making about a good life, whether they are traditional assumptions or the total opposite or somewhere in between. We make assumptions and we don't want to get trapped in them. "The unexamined life is not worth living," regardless of whether your life fits a tradition or not. Don't let tradition or anything else cloud or deter your introspection.
Perhaps you could communicate to your spouse about your situation, and maybe you two would agree about how it's going, and perhaps that mutual understanding in itself could be a connection that you share, in that you both understand the challenges that the other is going through, and just knowing that someone gets that makes it easier, even if on the individual level, it's not easy for either of you.
I watched that video, with the divorce lawyer. That was beyond so real , and what a great speaker. He was so right on. Folks are thinking about marriage. Should watch it. Myself am married, but could be happy being single.
I think from a young age we are taught that marriage is a must do and we can’t be happy and without it we can be happy.
Happiness is an individual experience some can be happy married and others love the freedom of being single. Finding what works for your heart is what’s important not what others think you should do
Am I the only one who feels like I'm the perfect everyone to myself?
Sometimes feel like I'm my own best friend, brother, mate, fan, father, and son. It's like I become 2 people and talk to myself. For example some days I would give myself advice like a dad teaching his son, or tell myself not to worry because I'll be my best friend help during a difficult time. Its like I become how I think a friend should be.
You're definitely not alone in this. No one knows us better than we know ourselves.
In this situation, though, I wonder if this is only true for people who have done a lot of self work/growth to get to know themselves on a deeper level... Therefore, knowing exactly how to comfort themselves from within, whereas most people seek comfort outwardly. 🤷🏽♀️
The Kingdom of God Is Within You. Congratulations, you are awake!
There are teo of you. The soul which is the real you and the ego/mind that believe’s the life story is you.
Am i the only one who pretends to talk to their friends or someone while they're alone and explain everything they do or feel
No, you're not
The way i do this all the time 😭
OMG I ALWAYS DO THAT THANK YOU!
That's my morning to a tee
I also do this.
Thanks
Am I the only one who finds comfort in the words of a book rather than deal with the realities of life?📚💖
Samee then I will imagine my life if I was a character in that book and just forget about reality 💛
Sure! That's why I have read over a thousand books!
Same here! It's so accurate, actually today, with my twin sister we were talking about finding comfort in books 😅
If I hadn't lived my ENTIRE childhood and adolescence in books, I wouldn't have reached adulthood.
Am i the only one who thinks that, sometimes being strong is very tiringgg,but you got no choice other than being stronggg and keep going. Day by day, step by step.. and to make yourself feel good, im always said to myself.. "one step at a time and smiles" 🦋
Everyone feels that. That's called life and living.
no you are not, But is also OK to fall apart sometimes.
@@libratude9595 that's not living... That's called "survival mode" & u have to choose if u will stay in that mode, or get yourself to a place where u no longer have to....
Choose the right pill!! 💊
It is safe to feel and relax, Erlyn. Give yourself permission to breathe deeply and feel, then you can keep going. I know, it is better said than done, it took me time and practice. All the best ❤
Agreed!
am I the only one who‘s asking themselves all the time if that’s all what happiness is?
No it's not just you, I am young but i don't remember the last time i was really happy. good things still happen but i don't really think i feel anything anymore
I question myself daily, will I find happiness, what is happiness
My happiness is mundane. No social life because I like being alone. If I have friends, it will take years before they are invited to my home.
My happiness is working with my hands to craft almost everything in my house, I would make Victorian style furniture and aesthetics.
I'm very much a creature of comfort ^_^
i believe we must seek JOY not hapiness... as sadness it's just a state...
@@Nikhil52018I'm with you. I can't remember the last time I felt happy, if ever. I feel like I'm just existing most of the time.
I've been having a rough year with my health. No doctors know what's wrong with me. It's hard to even remember basic things these days, and I have no energy. Thanks for sharing such uplifting content, it always makes me happy to watch your videos.
I'm sorry to hear that. You might be going through a spiritual awakening. It causes a of symptoms. May help to look that up ❤
Jesus loves you and I’ll be praying for you.
Those are ms symptoms and its incredibly hard to diagnose. Im NOT a doctor and im wrong all the time but thats what comes to mind
Sleep apnea ?
That could be a number of things. Try not to give up looking for a doctor that WILL find the cause of what is going on with you.
I say that because for many years I had some health issues and no doctor could ever figure it out, they would just guess. Now, over 20 years later I know what's wrong and dealing with it daily. Some days are harder than others, but I just try to focus on the good of everything.
The third one IS SO RELATABLE. I always think that people secretly hate me or think I'm annoying and they're just being nice to me. I think it stems from the fact that I once had terrible roommates who were not very nice people and clearly hated me, though never said it to my face.
Me too, all the time
I think that I am annoying people because I have annoyed a lot of people in the past. My nickname in middle school was UrkeI.
Am I the only one who LOVES this channel and thinks you are an AMAZING content creator. People like you deserve to be influencers and make loads of money, not people doing dances or pranks.

Dominion (2018)
Thoraya influences me and many others to be more empathetic. I would say she is one of the best real influencers. Also maybe Thoraya does not need loads of money and values these interactions more than fame or wealth?
Am I the only one who is constantly hopeful about society even though I keep getting let down? 😂
damn if we expressed this as humans on a daily, we would be so connected, inspired, innovative, and come up with solutions! I love this series so much. 🤟
agreed!!! we're all human.
i agree with this sm.
Am I the only one who feels inconvenienced by having to sleep? I hate thinking of needing to sleep when I could be doing something so much better!
OMG. Same here. Just this morning, I was telling my daughter I wish we had 48 hours in a day and didn't need sleep. We'd get so much done that way. Lols
No, definitely not!
I understand this feeling completely! Why is it that nature has made it so that we have to spend an entire third of our lives just lying down and doing nothing? It's so annoying!
Am I the only one who finds comfort in melancholy?! Thoraya is such a magnificent videographer, everyone in your videos looks so real and beautiful in their own natural way! love ya! best channel on this platform. enjoy the daily melancholy
Am I the only one that still believes in (real, healthy) love.
It seems like people care more about what they can "gain" or playing victim or persecutor, or afraid of getting hurt deciding to "go their own way".
Am I the only one who loves fully and bravely.
You’re not, but I hope to one day gain the confidence to love this same way. It’s exhausting and painful living and loving from a place of fear and insecurity and struggling to combat it. I admire you.
No. Other people like that are out there!
I'm sure you're not. I'm something of a coward when it comes to social interactions, so I don't "love fully and bravely", but I want to.
Am i the only one who feels like my existence, and connection to reality is a profoundly beautiful mystery?
Same. I've had these weird moments every once in while where I can't help but find my existence, my awareness of it and just the existence of everyone and everything else in general to be incomprehensibly miraculous. It's really surreal when it happens.
💚
I feel like deja vu is the only universal experience that slightly feels like time travel.
The offering of struggling with jealousy hit hard. You are not alone and we can allow others and allow ourselves to be what we need
These confessions are surely interesting. People come in and say things and we learn or take what we can in return. Overall, we always look forward to see more.
Am i the only one that fears he will be alone if he really tells everyone what he thinks?
Hey just a lil advice that might help you because I can relate to your thoughts: “you can’t say something wrong to the right person”.
Have a nice day
Hey just a lil advice that might help you because I can relate to your thoughts: “you can’t say something wrong to the right person”.
Have a nice day
I really needed this tonight. I am struggling with changing a lot as a person and growing apart from my friend group. It is nice to feel connected to people through this video. Thanks
You are not alone. ❤ Changing yourself for the better is damn hard, give yourself some slack to #uck up.
We definitely need more trash cans! I understand logistically it would require more workers to empty them, but it's so needed! Not just in big cities either. If we give people more places to throw things out, maybe they wouldn't litter as much.
Am I the only one still waiting for that day in my life when things finally change for the better?
Yes, but I am 48. I realize I have to work to change my life for the better. I have worked on myself but things change little by little for the better. Not in one day.
For the deja vu thing, I once heard that it’s the version of you from a parallel universe that’s doing the exact same thing at the same time as you in this universe. So the lines kinda “cross” and that’s why you get that feeling. I LOVE that, and I’ve gone with that answer since lol
Am I the only one who thought that little girl was gunna suprise us all by saying something so profound but ends up just saying "ducks" ... lol... my mind went to "I like turtles" immediately lol
I read an article that said it's possible deja vu happens when the brain misinterprets the current moment as a memory hence the feeling that it has happened before.
the first guy literally described exactly how I've been feeling the last couple of years 😢
Same, I hate it when I can't snap out of it
I immediately cried when I heard him saying that and I don’t cry easily. I really thought I was alone feeling like this. My friend calling my name, talking about things to me and I know they’re talking but I can’t hear them it’s all blurry. Everthing is blurry. I’m so relieved I’m not alone but also I’m sorry somebody going tru this
When I was a kid - raised by a single-working-mom - I spent summers with my grandparents (mom had to work during my summer break). Consequently, I was around my grandparents' friends.
Seeing what marriage turns into after 30-40 years shaped how I saw 'til death do us part'. These were not happy people. They were generally annoyed with - and resentful of - each other.
The Oscar Levant quote "Marriage is a triumph of habit over hate" - while seemingly pessimistic - has a lot of truth to it. Some marriages are great....but a lot more are soul-suckers. I relate to the lady at 7:10.
0:59 you're not alone brother I feel the same way.
Your videos calm my heart and soul.
Same goes to me 🦋✨
Same here ❤️
Am I the only one who gets excited just thinking about all the books I want to read. I'm truly happy when I have so many words to read,feel.
Am I the only one who sometimes wonders if life is actually an escape game and those who choose to leave it early are the ones who have actually figured it all out?
Life is not an escape game, it's a mission. Choosing to leave early is believing the lies that make you disqualify yourself.
Be courageous. May the Truth be revealed to you. :)
100% relate to that !
Wow, this was such a good one! A seemingly simple prompt but you really learn a lot about each person by what they chose to share.
Am I the only one who’s guilty pleasure is when I’m talking to my friend and they are having a hard time explaining something. And i try and help them explain and they say, “YES that is exactly what I was trying to say!” It makes me feel so happy to help someone even in the littlest way possible.
To the person @7:13 - My wife and I have very different vows from anyone else I know. They say we will stay together "[...]as long as we compliment each other's happiness and are healthy for one another."
We also based our vows off of a quote from Lord Elrond of Rivendell in Lord of the Rings which says “No oath or bond is laid on you to go further than you will. For you do not yet know the strength of your hearts, and you cannot foresee what each may meet upon the road.”
By this, we are not married and promised to each other "til death do us part," but instead we are married for as long as we want. Yes, people can and do change. We accept this, and if we do part ways, its ok. It is part of life. Divorce/ parting ways is not a bad thing. Divorce/ parting ways is better than staying in an unhealthy marriage. Now this doesn't mean we just give up at the first hardship. We have gone through several hardships since getting married 2 years ago. And yes, I would be very sad if we parted ways, but we acknowledge that people change, and that is ok. We have the ability to parts ways and go upon our own chosen path.
Also want to note we are both atheists so we are truly not bound by any promise to any god to stay together longer than we want.
Write your own vows. Make life what you want it to be. You do not have to do what everyone else says you should do. We certainly didn't.
I love our vows, and I think it is a beautiful thing 💚
I love this
That sounds so amazingly healthy, good on you both for having the consciousness to be yourselves and go your own ways! I appreciate you sharing this and setting a great example of how easy it can be to live outside the box. May you both grow in the same direction in similiar speed and be happy together as long as it will last! 💚💚💚
Really liking the prompts in these recent videos, thanks Thoraya!
Thoraya, I think you’re the only one who can get people to open up like they do for you …
always such interesting comments {& dances !}
I know I'm not the only one who sees the world as it is, and it is very, very bad, but always ends the day asking myself, "Am I the only one who feels this way?"
If the last girl who is cynical about marriage can release herself from the societal pressure to find a husband, I think she could be quite happy having a string of shorter term relationships that set her sole on fire, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Not everyone has to subscribe to the same relationship model.
Except at 40 50 60 70 80 and if you are lucky 90.....there is no family community .Love and connection is not meant to be a soul fire passionate thing. It is a stage in nature. Look at how you feel about your best friends for guidance .
I don’t feel pressured in my mind, I promise you! I just see a lot of emphasis on it from society. Also, some women like women 😉
Or rather the short term ones
My boyfriend says marriage is for the children to have stability. We never had children so we never married. But we have been together for 12 years by choice
Am I the only one who has understood and dreaded the concept of my own death since I was a toddler? I actually cried about it as a toddler and then lied about why I was crying because I thought my mom and sister would get upset.
I understand what death is since I was 5 years old but I'm not afraid. In my case, it will be a relief. It would be better if I had never existed (and my wish is to disappear without leaving a trace since I never wanted to be here)
My only fear is the PROCESS of dying: I can't stand any kind of PHYSICAL pain. Mental suffering is bad enough
@@13letras Even though I'm against death, I also wish I hadn't existed and that I didn't have to experience mental or physical suffering. I fluctuate between being suicidal for reasons most people would consider nonsense and being ok with things even though logically it doesn't make sense. I only feel true comfort when I believe that I will one day, somehow, make death a choice.
@@fitwesdaily I have a very clear reason why suicide is the only possible way out of a no-win situation. The problem is that I'm a coward because: a) I'm afraid of pain; b) I'm afraid of surviving with sequelae (my biggest fear)
I don't think I will ever have the courage to make death a choice. But I'm genuinely envious of those who have it. Unfortunately, my physical health has always been excellent, so it is likely that I will die at a very old age.
“What’s the point of being forever with that” lowkey has me feeling some type of way 😭
I love these kind of videos because they remind me that we are all just humans. We are all learning and experiencing things our own way and we are walking our own path. I love being a human and i love seeing people live and experience stuff!!!
Even though we are so different we all sometimes think about these silly little human things 🌸
Am i the only one who has to keep such a huge painful secret? It hurts so much and it weighs heavy on me every day.
Let it out in the comment section of some video. You'll feel much better😊
No, many people have a very heavy secret. I hope you find a safe place to share it.
Safe space here👋
Am I the only one who is struggling with living ? With love ? Am I the only one who can’t believe that people really love me ?
2:42 Aww
Am I the only one who specifically frees up their weekends to just relax and do nothing and then regrets it when the weekend comes and wishes I planned something
1:45 I got really excited with the lady who practices writing with her non-dominant hand. I've made several attempts to do that since I was a kid, and now I can do a lot of things left-handed as well as right-handed: write, use a knife, throw a football. It feels really fulfilling when you get to a point that you can just do BOTH.
i think that deja vus tell you that you're on the right path, like you doing things right and just hit a checkpoint, and the deja vu reminds you of that. It's the path that was choosen for you and you didn't get of track yet..
I think in similar ways
im not alone 💕🙌@@fitwesdaily
the last girl was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO REAL for everything she said, i love her already and i agree with everything she said!!! I hope she never changes
I love this question! It helps people to realize that we all have insecurities and we're not the only one.
I’m really liking these new questions Thoraya. Please keep doing what you do!
Am I the only one who feels like there is something so fundamentally wrong with them for as long as they’ve been alive with crippling panic about it, not finding any relief or release for it, feeling fucking lonely and reading comments on videos to find any comfort?😣
The women talking about marriges... im feeling that whole thing 👌👌😌
6:38 imagine getting a deja vu at this moment
work in healthcare. Several patients have reported they have done the blurry vision glasses off thing all their lives when they want a barrier between themselves and everything else to feel calmer more focused. incidentally they were also cool people you would want in your life.
I just want to say to the 3. guys who are afraid that they won't have real friends. I mean, if you've been friends for a long time, and it's true that you annoy your friends, I think it's like having a family - sometimes some of them annoy you from time to time, but in a lovely way they seem to accept you, no matter what you are doing or have something that annoys them. It's love! And I have some friends who upset me for so, so many times, but I still love them and accept them and spend time with them. Some of them I don't see sometimes for a long time, but they are still my friends.
And it took me a long time to realize that you can be imperfect and still deserve love! ❤
Am I the only one who looks at a random person on the street and wonders about their life story and how much of them I don’t know about?
Am I the only one who, even though I’m grateful for life, have always wished an apocalypse would happen and wash most everything and everyone away? 😢
So I may be mostly alone, not feel overwhelmed by life, people, the system and can just .. be
NO. And the weirdest thing is I love all these things in my life so much, but every now and then I wish I could be completely alone just for a second
The one who practices writting with the opposite hand is not the only one ...🖐
I practiced eating with my left hand in case I ever broke my right... didn't want to starve. Also writing. I now eat as much with my left as my right... and can still write with my left hand. I'm in my 50s, so I've had a lot of practice!
I love you thoraya ❤. You inspire me the most
Good morning Thoraya! Its always a pleasure to watch your videos with such personal experiences! I'm excited to watch! ❤
I love how you make me believe there are truly genuine and honest people in the world
Am I the only one who has no idea how to make friends without the consistency of school
Am I the only one who feels like everybody hates me, even when they seem like they are being nice, I get this unshakable feeling that it's all an act. Part of me even interprets compliments as lies or passive aggression?
LOTION MAN !
There is a lotion back stick

Am i the only person who is scared sometimes to go blind or deaf? Also, am I the only one who gets small painful pimples, one on my lower lip and one upper lip? 😄
No😂
no you are not, but i also think how wonderful it would be sometimes (Not to lessen anyones struggle)
Nope, u're not alone 🙈
Yes, I have pretty bad eyesight and when I was younger I worried that I would go completely blind.
The brain from the last girl is so stunning. She in general is stunning, inside and out. Such a beautiful soul.
7:14 No! You're not the only one, I'm 27 and I'm still not sure about marriage, I'm not fascinated by marriage, and I always keep avoiding relationships.
first guy is so real, if my glasses aren’t on i feel like i can’t hear or compute thoughts
Ok, so my theory about Déjà vus is that they are things that happened in your dreams, and when they happen similarly in reality, you feel that it has already happened.
A lot of people connect it to dreams. What’s interesting is that we feel ties to dreams during this experience, but many people also feel a sense of timelessness. As in, all time is occurring at once rather than in a perceived linear or “flatted” way. Maybe our perception of time is like the shadow of what it truly is, it has more dimension to it.
Either way, I feel like the key to understanding it is in the present.
Oh gosh this puts a smile on my face! I love the honesty.. weirdly enough once the „awkward“ thing is said it looses its heaviness and I can relate to so many things😊 thank you for your videos ❤
Am i the only one who can't afford to purchase love because I fear that it will cost my liberty? I love my freedom too well ו×
What do you mean by purchase love? Can you really purchase it?
Another hypothesis about Deja Vu would be that a newly formed memory is not passing through your short term memory at all but skipping it altogether and ending up in your long term memory with the conscious mind becoming aware of this as it is occurring. To make sense of this your brain reaches the conclusion that this experience/event must have happened before.
My parents were happily married for almost 60 yrs. So I know how great it can be. However, I totally relate to the young lady's views about marriage.
My ears perked up at the lotion on your own back thing
