Hey man. I hope you're doing good. I hope you can see that theres good in all people, and that theres something and more to love in everyone. Know that the fact you got anxiety is human nature, intended for us to stop doing stupid things. But it can become to powerful and make your world really small. If you can convince your body otherwise, by doing the opposite, eventually it will drop its guard. You just have to believe in it. I hope this will help you. Take care :)

I actually met a girl with red hair at a party one time. Wasn’t really talking to anyone til I started to drink, I don’t remember what I said to her, but when I went to go sit alone she followed me and I just gave her my life story. She was just there, listening, kicking her legs, she was so pretty, she was their til 2 in the morning just like me and when she left, I told her “it was nice talking to you.” Keep in mind I’ve never seen this video before. But to make a long story sad, we went on a date but things just didn’t click like they did at the party, she left in an hour and after that she ghosted me. Living with it.
Hey, sorry for what happened to you. It's always good to meet new people and talk to them. Even if it's just about personal stuff. I hope you see this is a positive experience and keep trying, even though this one didn't turn out as you hoped. Take care :)
@@wyattthetitan There was this one time someone tried to hug me but as they closed in, I kept backing away. This however kept going until I phased through a wall just to back away further.
ok but it totally feels like a pretty good metaphor for how it feels sometimes -- like everyone else is working within these social "laws of gravity" that somehow... aren't working on you? So you just kinda accidentaly bonk into people and make a mess of randomly because you just... don't know how this works, don't know how to maneuver at all -- don't even know the rules of maneuvering. It's odd.
if he can fly like that he definitely has potential for the NBA. could even be in the goat debate in a couple years if he keeps up his training. super high potential.
To clarify, this is not an "anxiety" disorder. This is a "panic" disorder. Anxiousness is more or less normal. Its perfectly reasonable to be apprehensive around people you aren't comfortable with. Panic disorder is when you feel perfectly willing to do something, but you have extreme, extreme sensations and emotions you absolutely cannot ignore that force strange behaviors that attempt to alleviate the symptoms. Confusion, loss of vision, chest pains, shortness of breath, profuse sweating, tingling like a fallen asleep limb in your arms, legs, face and head. The distinction is very , very important when attempting to treat or at least cope. You're doing yourself NO favors if you describe your sensations as "anxiety" to a healthcare professional. Anxiety is normal. The severe central nervous system distress of a panic disorder is treated completely differently. If your "anxiety" persists after treatment, this could be why.
Hi, you seem overly analytical, kinda like me. Analytical people (and people with higher measured iq) generally tend to be more anxious than others. But I want to tell you that anxiety and panic have a lot in common. Panic is what happens when anxiety escalates to uncontrollable behavior driven by anxiety (stress from fear). We all have this by our nature and a low to moderate amount of anxiety is normal (and crucial for survival). But when your fear of something is too much, it will affect your quality of life and successes. The way you describe panic is actually anxiety. But I understand that if you tell a Healthcare professional that you have anxiety, that it may not be enough for them to take you as seriously as you want them to. Because as I said, anxiety comes in all kinds of shapes and sizes. It really helps to tell them that you cannot do the things that you want to because of anxiety. Like socialize, succeed in work/college.
Also in my experience help from therapy is a great tool to discover what causes your anxieties, but often is not enough to get over it. You need to be exposed to your fears, to tell your body that your anxiety is not justified. For example: if you have social anxiety, you have to keep socializing with people and find that there are things you like about it. Then eventually your anxiety will drop to normal levels. Hope this helps, take care :)
It's interesting that when he admits that he makes people feel uncomfortable, she tries to comfort him by saying "no you're doing good". He knows he's doing poorly, and she knows too, this advice isn't going to help. Her exasperated rant at the end is far better advice for him, and you can tell he appreciates it. This is why I prefer to give people helpful advice, rather than comforting them when it wouldn't help.
Kaiwala I’ve been told that sometimes its better to give advice, and other times it’s better to comfort people. My first move is usually to go for the former
A "floater" is a common term to describe a friend who everybody knows yet doesnt notice, makes small chat, but doesnt get to know them, get invited to parties, without getting attention, they're kinda there, just floating.
@@vsatonthebeat4101 its not very fun just being there, everyone knowing "of" you but not actually knowing you. I'm the kind of friend who exists but isn't the first person you reach out to when you want to do something, and just happen to get invited to things somehow anyways.
That “floater” def is me and hits too close to home, and it definitely does not help with my social anxiety causing me stutter and pause like I’ve just met this person even tho I’ve known them for years. Bc of my drawing talents everyone knows of me but not really me. Which is fine ofc, bc not everyone needs to know me or be friend vise versa, but if I’m getting called “a friend” and being invited to places they should at least acknowledge my existence instead of ditching me. Rant over(:
10 years on and i still have this song stuck to my head.. Again.. loving this video!! Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy... still trying to find the song!!!!
Damn.. I can’t believe this is an animation from 2013. It’s weird for me to think about that, because I was 13 at the time, and I don’t really have any memory of watching TH-cam back then.. it just seems like such a good animation that I wouldn’t expect from 2013, and is beyond it’s years like as if it would of been from the more recent years like 2020 and such :o
Sensory overload doesn't really tell you much though. Is it due to autism? Or social anxiety? Other kinds of anxieties? And what is it that triggers the stress? Sounds and smells? People looking at you? Thoughts and emotions? There can be a lot of reasons why someone experiences stress. But I agree, it's hard to understand to an outsider.
It's probably on purpose but this reminds me SO strongly of those old peanuts cartoons-- the moody piano in the background, the soft, slightly rough voice aesthetic, the way the lines move around a little, it feels like it's directly inspired by those
God I love this story. I love when they start talking to each other too. Really sweet stuff and also goes to show what can come around when you spend time with the more understanding people in this world. I hope this story becomes a reality in more people's lives.
this is literally gold. ONCE AGAIN YOUR STORYTELLING IS AMAZING, it flows smoothly with your style and i love it, paired with unique animation this is godly.
I know what it's like to be a ghost to people. You talk, joke, offer something interesting, but no one hears or sees you. This problem has been haunting me since childhood and only now, at the age of 19, I realized that I don't need to waste time on people who really don't care about me. Instead, find what makes you happy and meet people who are interested in YOU. Everyone who has the same situation-do not give up! Start respecting and loving yourself and then you will find happiness in your life. I'm glad I've found this video. Thanks to the people who made this animation.. Videos like this really helps my mental recovering.
Him floating away is a super cool metafore for him not being grounded, and him swimming back to the ground is so good for how connected and grounded we can feel after meeting someone
if you feel awkward at parties, it may be you don't really relate to those guys...share the same interests. it is ok to not get together if you just don't feel it. however, good conversation is an art and must be practiced to some degree to engage socially. remembering that people have the same basic interests, just like you, connects us all.
@@SASHA-wv2ls As soon as I saw there was one comment, I knew it would say this. Have you ever watched the Game Grumps episode where they talk about Subway, and how it doesn't matter if it's different people serving you from a different joint, it's just the same crap each time, and it just seems lazy.
I'm crying, I'm crying uncontrollably I relate to this from head to toes, every single insecurity expressed, every single dialogue, it just hit so hard This feel magical, cause I'm currently having all those insecurities currently as I anxiously stare at my friend's DMs I'm a bad friend, a really terrible one I made people uncomfortable for my behavious but I don't know what to do, how to stop it is desperating everyday I feel I get worse, I feel the need to constantly isolate because I simply don't know what to do and it hurts it hurts so bad but I know I'm also doing harm and that's what I hate the most I'm an awful friend, an awful person, and I'm so incapable of anything I hate it so much, I don't want to be like that but, just like him, I don't know what to do I don't even know why am I like this, or if I'm like this on purpose Cause I just want to care for people, I jusr want to befriend people, I just want to be able to express love and appreciation but I can't I just can't I don't know what to do
I think it's to do with how social anxiety causes you to feel like everyone else is getting something that you just can't quite figure out, he's disconnected from people because he can't see the struggles and insecurities that they hide and as a result it feels as though he's living his own isolated reality.
「SMILE DIP」 and sometimes you just want to put a box over your head and a sticker will be stick to the box says "I'm a anti social person...so don't talk to me"
「SMILE DIP」 ME TOO. I absolutely hate going to parties and social events. I'd rather stay home and read a book. It's so hard to be the one friend in my friend group that never wants to do anything. I'm not anti-social, I'm just introverted, but people don't get it.
Yeah ngl externalizing anxiety is really gonna affect those around you including yourself, you're not the only one to be pitied and all when saying those "Oh I can't interact anymore hhh I'm so dumb" stuff, it really makes people uneasy, I only realized this recently too, it's not always about you, it's about the people around you too
@@kitsickles I kinda disagree with what you have to say. Like yeah that makes people uneasy,but he was talking to the girl. She directly asked hom what he felt was wrong and he decided to share how he felt about him self during social interaction. When the question what is wrong is directed towards you then they aren't trying to know about someone else it is about you at that moment. She said she was going through the same thing. Like no offense you could have anxiety too,but it just doesn't work like that. Personally I have anxiety and if someone told me oh "you are doing this to yourself" .I'd be like how could you ask me what's wrong then judge me which is why in the first place I was scared to answer you when you asked if I was ok. Instead I think it would be better to say" I'll help you then slowly let you go on your own,so you won't be stuck". Also saying "It isn't always about you seems unhelpful just in my opinion". Like dude I mean that is why some people are scared to seek help. Also I'm pretty sure they know they aren't the only one,but that doesn't make them inconsiderate. People need to get help to understand themselves and how they may actaully be impacting others. I mean honestly it seems just like he doesn't want to make others uncomfortable so he just distances himself so the problem just goes away. He didn't purposely go out of his way to actaully make people uncomfortable more like he went out of his way to make sure he couldn't be around others so they wouldn't be uncomfortable.
@@swepsdakittie7792 oh yeah true ofc! there are people that will help and be there to listen, but sometimes people with these problems will rely on the wrong crowd. like sometimes I'd see classmates or friends who vent to people that aren't ready or aren't capable of helping someone with these problems. I also have the same deal and all, but I know that some people aren't comfy or aren't in the right head space to help sometimes, people should also be aware about who they're venting to. the girl in the film had no problem with helping or with talking to him about stuff, she was willing to talk about it with him, and THAT is the time when you could vent and all, if someone will openly allow and be there for you
I never met anyone who truly cared for me and I can trust and expect support if I need it. Soon this chapter will end and the new one will begin, hopefully totally opposite to finishing one. Ever optimistic me )
I watched this many years ago but never understood what’s the matter with this dude. Then I went through some crazy transitions in life that made me unable to establish or maintain normal relationships. Until recently I met somebody just like her, I realized that this actually happens a lot.
This is such a great skit, the characters feel real despite all that's going on and I can relate to it a lot! I love your work!! And the voice acting was amazing too! :D
You MIGHT be hanging with shitty people. Or you may come across as obnoxous. Try being a better listener. If that doesn't work, and neither does direct communication, then move on and find better people.
Maybe you talk about boring stuff or talk about things in a boring way I have a friend who I sometimes don’t like talking to because his delivery is unfunny
I wish I had friends, my social anxiety it's killing me from inside, it's horrible. Like, I haven't even been to a birthday party in three years. I feel so lonely, but also sometimes I feel like I'm overreacting cuz I have some classmates that say "hey I'm your friend don't worry" but then they aren't there for me, they don't talk to me, they don't text me, they don't help me, they do nothing. AND I KNOW, i should also start conversations but when i try that, they never respond, they just say three or two things and then just kill the conversation. I don't know what to do
@@kevoo6787so Where are you from btw bro I am also very introverted, although I overcome social anxiety and have great friends, but I never go out of the house.

she made him feel grounded

i got the same vibe. probably thanks to the background music towards the end.

Its because each lime isnt drawn with a smoothing tool, so that it has that “squiggle” effect.
Yeah, I felt that too, I think it was the way she looked or something
the girl kinda looks like lucy a little maybe its the art style but also the focus on their speech it definitely had charlie brown cadence
What I like is that she helped him, not cured him. She gave him an anchor and he was able to weather the storm alone which is cool
Now, this is what animation is for. Using the quirks that you can do with it to tell a great and deep story.
I actually met a girl with red hair at a party one time. Wasn’t really talking to anyone til I started to drink, I don’t remember what I said to her, but when I went to go sit alone she followed me and I just gave her my life story. She was just there, listening, kicking her legs, she was so pretty, she was their til 2 in the morning just like me and when she left, I told her “it was nice talking to you.” Keep in mind I’ve never seen this video before. But to make a long story sad, we went on a date but things just didn’t click like they did at the party, she left in an hour and after that she ghosted me. Living with it.
Hey, sorry for what happened to you. It's always good to meet new people and talk to them. Even if it's just about personal stuff. I hope you see this is a positive experience and keep trying, even though this one didn't turn out as you hoped. Take care :)
all he needed was someone to keep him grounded
Omg love that lol
His mom can ground him
Hehehe get it?
Grounded :)
And that's why you avoid chinese electronics

@@wyattthetitan There was this one time someone tried to hug me but as they closed in, I kept backing away. This however kept going until I phased through a wall just to back away further.
ok but it totally feels like a pretty good metaphor for how it feels sometimes -- like everyone else is working within these social "laws of gravity" that somehow... aren't working on you? So you just kinda accidentaly bonk into people and make a mess of randomly because you just... don't know how this works, don't know how to maneuver at all -- don't even know the rules of maneuvering.
It's odd.
if he can fly like that he definitely has potential for the NBA. could even be in the goat debate in a couple years if he keeps up his training. super high potential.
All he gotta do is start exercizing and he'll definitely have a spot there in the future
To clarify, this is not an "anxiety" disorder. This is a "panic" disorder. Anxiousness is more or less normal. Its perfectly reasonable to be apprehensive around people you aren't comfortable with.
Panic disorder is when you feel perfectly willing to do something, but you have extreme, extreme sensations and emotions you absolutely cannot ignore that force strange behaviors that attempt to alleviate the symptoms. Confusion, loss of vision, chest pains, shortness of breath, profuse sweating, tingling like a fallen asleep limb in your arms, legs, face and head.
The distinction is very , very important when attempting to treat or at least cope. You're doing yourself NO favors if you describe your sensations as "anxiety" to a healthcare professional. Anxiety is normal. The severe central nervous system distress of a panic disorder is treated completely differently. If your "anxiety" persists after treatment, this could be why.
I aint reading allat but we up💯😭
Hi, you seem overly analytical, kinda like me. Analytical people (and people with higher measured iq) generally tend to be more anxious than others. But I want to tell you that anxiety and panic have a lot in common. Panic is what happens when anxiety escalates to uncontrollable behavior driven by anxiety (stress from fear). We all have this by our nature and a low to moderate amount of anxiety is normal (and crucial for survival). But when your fear of something is too much, it will affect your quality of life and successes. The way you describe panic is actually anxiety. But I understand that if you tell a Healthcare professional that you have anxiety, that it may not be enough for them to take you as seriously as you want them to. Because as I said, anxiety comes in all kinds of shapes and sizes. It really helps to tell them that you cannot do the things that you want to because of anxiety. Like socialize, succeed in work/college.
Also in my experience help from therapy is a great tool to discover what causes your anxieties, but often is not enough to get over it. You need to be exposed to your fears, to tell your body that your anxiety is not justified. For example: if you have social anxiety, you have to keep socializing with people and find that there are things you like about it. Then eventually your anxiety will drop to normal levels. Hope this helps, take care :)
It seems like he’s the type of person that externalizes his anxiety, and she seems like the type of person to internalize it.
FlarinaFairy THIS is the REAL “Two Kinds of People”
Actually, This is just one person who knows how to deal with there anxiety rather then letting it control there social situations
Fish Gilbert also tru
It's interesting that when he admits that he makes people feel uncomfortable, she tries to comfort him by saying "no you're doing good". He knows he's doing poorly, and she knows too, this advice isn't going to help. Her exasperated rant at the end is far better advice for him, and you can tell he appreciates it.
This is why I prefer to give people helpful advice, rather than comforting them when it wouldn't help.
Kaiwala I’ve been told that sometimes its better to give advice, and other times it’s better to comfort people.
My first move is usually to go for the former
A "floater" is a common term to describe a friend who everybody knows yet doesnt notice, makes small chat, but doesnt get to know them, get invited to parties, without getting attention, they're kinda there, just floating.
Oh, that sounds exactly like me.
Ouh yeah. Just flowing like water and observing other people.
Sounds like me : ( time to die i guess
@@ForwardBias honestly this is very difficult to pull off if you think about it
@@vsatonthebeat4101 its not very fun just being there, everyone knowing "of" you but not actually knowing you. I'm the kind of friend who exists but isn't the first person you reach out to when you want to do something, and just happen to get invited to things somehow anyways.
That “floater” def is me and hits too close to home, and it definitely does not help with my social anxiety causing me stutter and pause like I’ve just met this person even tho I’ve known them for years.
Bc of my drawing talents everyone knows of me but not really me. Which is fine ofc, bc not everyone needs to know me or be friend vise versa, but if I’m getting called “a friend” and being invited to places they should at least acknowledge my existence instead of ditching me. Rant over(:

Sensory overload. Those who don't have it can't easily understand it.
That's why we have things called analogies.
Sensory overload doesn't really tell you much though. Is it due to autism? Or social anxiety? Other kinds of anxieties? And what is it that triggers the stress? Sounds and smells? People looking at you? Thoughts and emotions? There can be a lot of reasons why someone experiences stress. But I agree, it's hard to understand to an outsider.
It's probably on purpose but this reminds me SO strongly of those old peanuts cartoons-- the moody piano in the background, the soft, slightly rough voice aesthetic, the way the lines move around a little, it feels like it's directly inspired by those

I know what it's like to be a ghost to people. You talk, joke, offer something interesting, but no one hears or sees you. This problem has been haunting me since childhood and only now, at the age of 19, I realized that I don't need to waste time on people who really don't care about me. Instead, find what makes you happy and meet people who are interested in YOU. Everyone who has the same situation-do not give up! Start respecting and loving yourself and then you will find happiness in your life.
I'm glad I've found this video. Thanks to the people who made this animation.. Videos like this really helps my mental recovering.

This feels relevant now more than ever, especially for me.
if you feel awkward at parties, it may be you don't really relate to those guys...share the same interests. it is ok to not get together if you just don't feel it. however, good conversation is an art and must be practiced to some degree to engage socially. remembering that people have the same basic interests, just like you, connects us all.
Title: This actually happens a lot
Ah yes, I too randomly float in the air when at parties :P
Brachlo Its symbolism
Bazooka Penguinz i was just joking :P
Can you explain the symbolism, please? I get most of it, but the floating is weird.
***** Thank the gods I'm not the only one.
it`s a symbolism of how awkard he feels when he is with other people.

I'm crying, I'm crying uncontrollably
I relate to this from head to toes, every single insecurity expressed, every single dialogue, it just hit so hard
This feel magical, cause I'm currently having all those insecurities currently as I anxiously stare at my friend's DMs
I'm a bad friend, a really terrible one
I made people uncomfortable for my behavious
but I don't know what to do, how to stop it
is desperating
everyday I feel I get worse, I feel the need to constantly isolate because I simply don't know what to do and it hurts
it hurts so bad
but I know I'm also doing harm
and that's what I hate the most
I'm an awful friend, an awful person, and I'm so incapable of anything
I hate it so much, I don't want to be like that but, just like him, I don't know what to do
I don't even know why am I like this, or if I'm like this on purpose
Cause I just want to care for people, I jusr want to befriend people, I just want to be able to express love and appreciation but I can't
I just can't
I don't know what to do
I really want to stop acting like a "freaking idiot"
"is desperating"
haha, I kinda like that
that rain animation is incredible
so.... the flying symbolizes not being grounded in reality because of social anxiety? like dissociating in a way?
No it symbolises how he can fly
@@Undergroundmoose nice
I think it's a clever visual metaphor that shows how clumsy and destructive he perceives himself to be
no everyone is in survival and the admin turned off cheats before he could change to survival
I think it's to do with how social anxiety causes you to feel like everyone else is getting something that you just can't quite figure out, he's disconnected from people because he can't see the struggles and insecurities that they hide and as a result it feels as though he's living his own isolated reality.
As an introvert, I find is relatable on so many levels. Sometimes, I'm trying to be that girl and then sometimes I'm that guy (flying around).
「SMILE DIP」 and sometimes you just want to put a box over your head and a sticker will be stick to the box says "I'm a anti social person...so don't talk to me"
actually it is im an introvert and dont know how to engage people so talk to me
I'm always that guy U__U
「SMILE DIP」 ME TOO. I absolutely hate going to parties and social events. I'd rather stay home and read a book. It's so hard to be the one friend in my friend group that never wants to do anything. I'm not anti-social, I'm just introverted, but people don't get it.
Don't you just hate it when you keep flying around uncontrollably in public
i saw this video first 5 years ago and man does it roll around when stuff like this hits hardest
The animation is awesome but the voice acting is so natural, relatable, and entertaining.
“you go out of your way to make people uncomfortable” owch
yeah that sucked to hear
It’s kinda true, though :/
Yeah ngl externalizing anxiety is really gonna affect those around you including yourself, you're not the only one to be pitied and all when saying those "Oh I can't interact anymore hhh I'm so dumb" stuff, it really makes people uneasy, I only realized this recently too, it's not always about you, it's about the people around you too
@@kitsickles I kinda disagree with what you have to say.
Like yeah that makes people uneasy,but he was talking to the girl.
She directly asked hom what he felt was wrong and he decided to share how he felt about him self during social interaction.
When the question what is wrong is directed towards you then they aren't trying to know about someone else it is about you at that moment.
She said she was going through the same thing.
Like no offense you could have anxiety too,but it just doesn't work like that.
Personally I have anxiety and if someone told me oh "you are doing this to yourself" .I'd be like how could you ask me what's wrong then judge me which is why in the first place I was scared to answer you when you asked if I was ok.
Instead I think it would be better to say" I'll help you then slowly let you go on your own,so you won't be stuck".
Also saying "It isn't always about you seems unhelpful just in my opinion".
Like dude I mean that is why some people are scared to seek help.
Also I'm pretty sure they know they aren't the only one,but that doesn't make them inconsiderate.
People need to get help to understand themselves and how they may actaully be impacting others.
I mean honestly it seems just like he doesn't want to make others uncomfortable so he just distances himself so the problem just goes away.
He didn't purposely go out of his way to actaully make people uncomfortable more like he went out of his way to make sure he couldn't be around others so they wouldn't be uncomfortable.
@@swepsdakittie7792 oh yeah true ofc! there are people that will help and be there to listen, but sometimes people with these problems will rely on the wrong crowd. like sometimes I'd see classmates or friends who vent to people that aren't ready or aren't capable of helping someone with these problems. I also have the same deal and all, but I know that some people aren't comfy or aren't in the right head space to help sometimes, people should also be aware about who they're venting to. the girl in the film had no problem with helping or with talking to him about stuff, she was willing to talk about it with him, and THAT is the time when you could vent and all, if someone will openly allow and be there for you
My anxiety is definitely broken, I didn’t get the flying parts.
He's flying in the air and doesn't feel grounded until someone pulls him back into reality or something.
You have to wait for the update hes in a dev server thats why the textures look diffrent
I think it only works while combined with 'alcohol containin' items

AND I KNOW, i should also start conversations but when i try that, they never respond, they just say three or two things and then just kill the conversation. I don't know what to do
