- When you think of someone who is mentally strong, what traits come to mind? There are a lot of stereotypes surrounding mental strength. Most of them are about the idea that in order to be mentally strong, you have to always be happy or immune to negative emotions. But what do you think? Will you agree with these 8 points in the video or do we need to include more? Also, we previously made a video on signs you are mentally stronger than most people here:

@@Fairyofthe_dragonflame Thank you!
OMG YOU LOVED MY COMMENT
@@Psych2go you are the most useful channel that anyone can find.
Things that mentally strong people don't do:
1. Bottling up their emotions
2. Living in the past
3. Being easily influenced by others
4. Letting people overstep their boundaries
5. Always sticking to their own perspectives
6. Blaming other people for their mistakes
7. Fixating on perfection
8. Being scared of being alone
@Less Depresso same :b
I'm all of these but 4 and 8
I struggle with 1,2, and 4.
Wow. I’m a complete opposite.
@@hijodelsoldeoriente try this:
For bottling up emotions and living in the past, do this for every night for 30 days. Before you go to sleep, close your eyes and mentally recreate the moments in your past that you regret. Try and really visualise yourself there, feeling what you felt and seeing what you saw. Then after a few minutes, say to yourself "I accept that happened" and then open your eyes. It can be painful but it really helps you to accept your past and move on. And it's important to realise that it's unrealistic to be happy all the time. If something upsets you or frustrates you, allow yourself to feel that way until you have processed it and accepted it. Don't let anybody tell you that you can't feel that way. Your feelings and experiences are valid.
-
For boundaries, you need to create a strong reality by thinking about your values, your beliefs, your likes and dislikes, your purpose in life (to keep you going in hard times), and what you contribute to the world (to stop your ego from getting too big). Once you know these, you can reinforce them by doing what you enjoy and following your purpose. Then it becomes easier to say no to what you don't want to do and what you don't agree with. You might need to be alone for a while to find all of this out, but it's worth it to know yourself. Spending time alone is the best way to get to know yourself. And you are the person you spend the most time with. You can't escape yourself so you're better off getting used to yourself.

Good luck.
Me: Ooh lets see if I can be mentally strong.
One: They dont Bottle up their emotions.
Me: Darn it ✨
The only thing I’ve applied to is not sticking to my own perspective ✨
So yay :D
Yes I also apply to the last one ✨
Not the strongest but that’s ok ^^
Bro why was the me-
Bottling up emotions will come up as anger later on. It's short term good, long term bad, because while it allows you to carry on in that moment, it causes problems later.
Holy crap that's exactly what I was thinking then I scrolled down and saw this comment-
Unrelated to psychology, but the narrator’s voice is so calming.
Yes, so appropriate
Actually it is related to psychology! The tone and rhythm in which the narrator produces her words are meant to be soothing and non-threatening while also being matter-of-fact. I’d also venture to say that they specifically chose a female narrator for this purpose, though plenty of male narrators have this effect too.
Periodt
Interesting how people can be so different. I find her voice and tone quite irritating.
But the videos are good anyway.
Yeah it is they're voices are asmr
"Bottling up emotions" I'm sure a lot of people got stomped there, I did--almost. You see, bottling isn't just not expressing yourself or not telling someone about a problem, it's also when you deny your feelings and pretend they don't exist. I almost never talk about my problems, but I will take time to carefully reflect and lay things in front of me, no matter how painful, and find out where things need to change or to it's time to let go of or even forgive myself for. Think of it as simply untangling a string. I know that after practicing this, my anxiety attacks have dropped a lot, and I'm able to control impulsive emotions such as sudden anger.
Can i have a screenshot for this?
Thank you
@Kira ChannxD; Sure, I guess. 😆
@Lolly LuLa; You're welcome! 😁
Thank you for this! This will be helpful. ^^
My mentally “strong” brain at 4 in the morning like: (-_-)

“Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.”
― Lao Tzu
Fact, if you really know who you are then you will believe the truth that you know rather than the opinions of others.
Why do you think we are conditioned to care about what others think? Love to hear your thoughts on that.
@@Psych2go Well, IMO we aren't obbligated to care what other thinks, but if what we do can bother someone, maybe listening to music that others don't like or smoking in their presence, it is important that we figure it out because others probably won't tell us about it.
IDK if you can understand my english is not perfect
Wrong,that doesn't apply for every situation....if u have misbehaved with a person and think that his/her's thoughts don't matter,ur totally wrong...u have to care about someone with whom u think u have had an emotional/agressive/friendly conversation...it doesn't mean u have to just think of what they feel about ur behaviour...but u have to just have a tought to it(•‿•)
Well obviously, I have wrote it wrong, but yes you have reason
Imagine being called sensitive and emotionally weak your whole life but none of these things apply to you? This was a real eye opener, thank you 🤗
Same here Kiana. Glad to hear we are normal and not what some have called us.
Same here
I would love to share this video with Trump!
@Shriram Kannan Should I delete my comment?
and then u realize that all of ur friends who call u sensitive and think they are mentally stronger are actually the ones who arent
Hey you! Yea you!
Its okay if you're not mentally strong. Nobody starts out mentally strong. It is a trait that comes to you over time if you work for it. Working for it means that you don't bottle up emotions and try to give it a place, even if it is painful to you. Everyone has the same blueprint of a brain, so there's no reason why you won't turn out mentally strong if you apply yourself. You're one of us, a human! And even if you're not strong enough now, there are people who are willing to carry that burden for you while you're learning. Its OKAY. Allow others to help you the same way you will be able to help others. Such is the self fullfilling prophecy of self-helping people!
PEACE!
Thank you so much.

How do I stop bottle up my emotions? How do I forget the things that hurted me a lot ? I try but its hard
@@m_edha5312 hi Edha, there are two main reasons why people keep bottling up emotions:
1. You're trapped in a situation that does not make sense to you. This scenario is most common, and is caused because you have nobody to talk to, or teach you the ways of the world. In a sense, it is a form of immaturity that you never chose for. You can only get out of that scenario by finding people you can talk to, and finding a way for them to proof their trustworthiness. The alterative for this scenario is that you'll have to pursue answers yourself. Unfortunately, with the many biases society has, this is a long road full of hurt and seeming contradictions. If you manage to overcome the hurt though, you'll be more the wiser.
2. Someone controls you. The only reason you're not able to do what you want, is because we're always reliant to one another. A child on its parent or a narcissist on its victim. Chances are you've been in a relationship just to learn what your worth is to others. When someone controls you, it means they've direct influence on your way of life. It doesn't just mean that they force you to do things. It also means they restrict or create the opportunity you need to grow out of it. Controlling parents can be a very common cause of feeling trapped.
You cannot escape this scenario until you've identified it as such, and then physically move out of it.
Either way, it's save to assume the rhythm of your day to day life is destructive rather than neutral or positive, if you have to bottle up emotions. It simply means you have no clue what to do with yourself when things change outside of expectations. Because of that, my direct advice would be to retreat and let the intensity fade by avoiding it. Then revisit the memories until it gets too intense. Then you rest again until it isn't. You keep this up until you've lost the intensity association with the memories. This approach will prevent your current coping strategies from skewing your perspective into something irrational.
thank you !
Thank you, your words are most comfort, I hate to listen those suggestions we do or we don’t . Because obviously we wanted to be strong, sometimes just really can’t and really don’t know how
I feel like I'm mentally strong on a lot of points, but I still have a lot of work to do. ^^
That's good that you identify with some of the points. What areas do you still feel are lacking?

I think everyone with the ability to self reflect agree and are right there with you. I know I am.

My turn :D
- Don't bottle their emotions/feelings
- Aren't living in the past
- Aren't easily influenced by others
- Don't let people overstep their boundaries
- They don't stick to their own perspectives
- They don't blame others for their mistakes
- They don't fixate on perfection
- They don't dread their own company
Thanks
Wow thanks! That saved me so much time and I feel like I can relate to all of them 0-0
Both my parents are like this which is good, but me.. umm
So that's how some lucky people live :')
ok so i feel like im a coward and a weak person now lol wtf can i do??
I see some comments about lucky people being like this. Let me just say there is nothing lucky about it - it's all work. You think and put in the effort when irrationality threatens, telling the voices in your head 'no' very firmly and moving forward every time while inside you hurt and scream and cry, until eventually it hurts a little less to make the choice to think.
And sometimes it's perspective that ends up forcing you to realize you have to make these choices to get by and stay sane. I grew up in a horrifically abusive household and that ended up forcing me to think so I wouldn't lose every bit of my mind piece by piece. I wasn't lucky. I was hurting every day and would not have survived to today if I hadn't started thinking through what I felt. Even so, it took years and years of practice, and so much effort I sometimes thought I would break for sure.
So please. Please don't dismiss it as luck. That's just making an excuse for why it comes naturally to others and why you shouldn't make an effort because obviously you're somehow not gifted like them. Trust me, they're either going or have already gone through a world of effort to reach this state of mind, and you can get there too if you just put in the effort.
Please believe in yourself more.
I believe in you.
Thank You I Needed This 😭😭😭😭. I Am Going Through Hell Everyday Because I Have To Mentally Prepare Myself To Be Firm To My Mother, My Sister, My Brother, My GF, Fuuuuuuuuuuvk It’s Hard 😫😫😫😫 And Painful😖💔
Marie Meintjies I'm so proud of you for keeping up the fight and doing your best when the world makes it hard for you ♥ Good luck! I know you can go far.
Very true :) I've had to work A LOT on myself over the years, it's still hard even now when I have irrational feelings or thoughts about someone or something.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
RedRoseSeptember22 You're doing a wonderful job, Red. The fact that you can recognize those thoughts as irrational speaks volumes of your mental maturity. It can be really hard to recognize, even harder acknowledge both to yourself and aloud. Proud of you for doing both - you're amazing. 🤍
I learnt to be mentally strong after realizing how my toxic relationship was effecting the way I behave and making my mental thoughts unstable. Needless to say, it takes a lot of effort to pick myself up after leaving that relationship, and finally finding myself to practice self-love. I didn't regret meeting him, because I was given a chance to better myself after that encounter, and perhaps this video would help those who are watching. XOXO
I’m so much of a perfectionist that’s why I procrastinate a lot because I’m afraid of failure and self disappointment. 😢
I wonder if people can be mentally strong and also be a perfectionist that's afraid of failure.
I absolutely relate to procrastination because of perfectionism! I think you can be mentally strong and afraid of failure, though. It's taking action even if you're afraid because you know that even if you fail, you're still getting better.
I can totally relate to that @ikea bird
@@tirecs04 That's how I am. I am still scared of failure, but I don't let that fear stop me. It's exactly how you said it. I can't control what I feel, but I can control what I do, so I will do whatever the hell it takes to improve... and I have to say, it is very motivating knowing that nothing limits you.. not even your worst fears.
and when i do fail i immediately give up and lose all motivation towards what i was working on 😿
I love the animation style!💕
Thank you! New animator! They have a channel too.
And I love the voice. 💕

@@Psych2go he is talanted
It’s so wholesome and cute. Especially with her soothing voice.
Can we just talk about how soothing her voice is? Like- YES
So I'm actually mentally stronger than I always thought I would be. I can relate to a lot of points and that makes me happy to know. However I still have to work on a few things like protecting my boundaries and letting go of perfection and I'm already on a good way there. It's sad that a lot of people think acknowledging your emotions and eventually let them out and work on them is weak when it's absolutely not....
Mentally strong people may not start as mentally strong but keep a curious mind looking for meaning in every day circumstances especially difficult ones to outgrow them.
Incredible suggestions.
Personally, I was always mentally weak until I had to go through many hardships at once. It was painful, but going through so much pain made me realize that all I want is for myself to grow and to improve.. and I started putting in extra effort to make sure that happens. It's weird how to find myself I had to lose everything I ever cared about.
Thank you! Did you relate to this video ? :)
Heyy, the trait you're describing is conscientuousness. I didn't correlate it with becoming mentally strong because of it though. Interesting perspective, thanks!
I look at the comments on this channel sometimes, but find this categorising people into numbers both repetitive and dull. Also in the same videos some numbered categories seem to contradict themselves. I wonder if some people can understand that just by plain luck or chance, are better off because of that
@Truth Seeker. I disagree with most of what you said. Mentally strong people don't always do what's right, they can be lazy at times, they put up with some degree of BS as long as it's worth it and they also consider emotions. I agree on the point that they are more likely to just let crap go as long as you mean situations and not people.
One fact about being mentally strong ist that most people will be weaker than you and you should learn to accept them for that.
This is unrelated but I almost broke my eardrums because I accidently put the volume up trying to press this video.
Oh no, hope you're okay!
@@Psych2go i am okay 😇
This made me snort laugh and I needed that because I've had a terrible few days, hope your ears are okay!

How do you set boundaries when you have low self-esteem ? Because I feel guilty whenever I don't meet other's expectations.
This is quite relatable. You might want to watch this video: th-cam.com/video/fvEXasIIhFw/w-d-xo.html Even though it's about romantic relationships, some of the points seem helpful. What do you think?
Here's another interesting article: www.yourtango.com/experts/celestial-wellness/how-to-set-boundaries-to-gain-self-worth-and-self-esteem-in-your-relationships
@@Psych2go Thank you for your answer, I watched the video and though it is addressed to women, it's really helpful. Self-love is primordial to be independent... The article's also quite good.
I need to practice self-love more, the more I'll be consistent, the more I'll feel about myself.
But first I need to define my values, those values are the core of the boundaries after all.
Maybe start with small, seemingly insignificant things, until you’re comfortable and gain the confidence to enforce smaller boundaries. Then you can gradually increase these boundaries. The good people in your life may be surprised about “changes”, you’re making, but as long as your consistent, gentle, respectful yet unapologetic, they will respect you for it.
If anyone makes you feel guilty for being caught trying to manipulate you into doing something against your will, they were never good in the first place.
“The snake which cannot cast its skin has to die. As well the minds which are prevented from changing their opinions; they cease to be mind.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche
Looks like I'm mentally strong!
I'm kinda proud of the person I became over the years. I already noticed that I'm more mentally stable than many other people around me! And I'm only 16.
Try to beat 14. Just Kidding. Hope you have wonderful day😊
Wow that's pretty awesome dude!
I could relate to majority of these points now at my 21's but few years back, there were so many points i didn't fulfill.
I got quite impressed when i noticed that i've become way stronger in this quarantine ^^
@@zephyrdian2408 Oh boy that's really bad. Unfortunally, depression arrive a lot of Teenegers Nowadays. But you are already doing a good thing, look for mental health videos alone, for me, is already a sign of strengh! Keep going, look for a professional of mental health and emotions, and the most important thing, TALK, this is really important (If you want to talk and say how you fell, me and a lot of people want to hear the story and help, so you can fell free to talk!). I wish luck to you. *Happiness should be your destiny* .
Yay same here! Also same age!
Just wait until you get married and have kids 👍 !!
I wish the narrator would do a meditation video, her voice is extremely calming

Now I realize, I think I am one of the mentally strong people, which kind of explains why I act different and can stand up for myself and sometimes others, online or real life.

The voice is so lovely 😣
Like if you agree!👀
Yeahh
Yeah I thought about that too,😁

This channel is pure perfection.
I don’t bottle up my emotions, I just hide them until the time is appropriate, otherwise I would be crying all of the time, I’m a crybaby XD
Same here 😖
hello fellow crybaby!
Someone said:
“Crying doesn’t make you weak, you’ve just been strong for too long.”
Crying is not an emotion, it's the outcome of emotions.
From what you say, it would definitely help you to learn to identify your feelings and express/expel them in a healthy way.
@@totallyjokers ooh hi army I identified you😀💜💜✨
I think it’s important to understand these are things are a RESULT of being mentally strong, you won’t start being strong for starting to do all of this.
Also, it’s important to not confusing perfection in life with passion for a craft, it’s ok to be a pefectionist in your work, but not in your personal life.
Watching this is making me realize that, even though I'm mentally ill and have been struggling for years, I'm much much stronger than I used to be. I still struggle in the day to day, but at my core I'm so much more mentally strong now
@Kayla Smith thank you so much, I really appreciate it ❤
I'm proud of you for your journey, too!
I really liked this description. It showed me how I've come a long way since my teenage years. I remember that when I was in high school, I still didn't really know how to argument. If there were pros and cons, I didn't know what to say when someone had a counter argument. I thought I had to keep my point of view because a friend once criticized a classmate for not having any opinion. I didn't understand that you can agree to counterarguments but say that you still believe, the other arguments outweigh that. Or that you can admit not having known a certain aspects and change your mind. I confused openness with not having an opinion. I could go on and on. I made almost all mistakes from the list. Now I'm 31 and I would say I'm mentally strong.
Plz make a video on what to do when someone you're emotionally attached to leaves you
Yesss
Yes, that's a good idea. So advice on how to deal with break-up or loss of that sort?
@@Psych2go Yesss.. I need that
@@devineheart7 We all do, buddy. It makes us stronger tho :)
@@SensoHakai truth
*waking up to this post after concluding my therapy with THIS exact topic last night!* I guess thats a sign.. 🙏
Aww! That's great to hear! What did you learn from both the therapy and the video? What steps would you be taking going forward that you would like to share for others?
Recognizing that you mentally are not ok or strong is a hard thing to admit to yourself. Keep pushing and dont give up on you. I have started journaling and it has helped to write down these points and reflect every few days to make sure I am doing whats best for ME mentally! Self love takes time and NO ONE is worth giving up your self love for! There are actually 13 points I learned in therapy.. Im curious if you will make a video covering the last few things mentally strong people dont do? ❤
The animation style is great! The thing that makes it so eye pleasing is the colored lineart and the pressure on the pen strokes.
Mental strength is when you realise, You aren't being honest to yourself.
When you can sacrifice your pride and embrace failure.
Mentally strong people are comfortable in their own skin. It is not stress that is damaging, it is our reaction to it 🖖
Any advice for how to build mental fortitude?
I am still trying to find an example of the type of person you describe. Every now and then I think I have found one. But once you start to get to know them, the cracks appear. Maybe we are all a little broken, and that's o.k. perhaps the best way to improve our mental health is to cut ourselves a little slack.
Awareness and Patience and readiness to work without judgement. Slowly building ourselves and reminding constantly that there will always be some work that can be done.
@@Psych2go In the very early stages I would advise not to feed our minds with “rubbish”, for example, avoiding social media until we become better at managing our minds. We all know that social media is poison, but we continue to “drink” it. Then continue with Meditation and selected reading. if problem persists go get help because life will be very challenging with a weak mind 🖖

I see a lot of videos where people describe what they think is a mentally strong person. They often feel condescending and unrealistic, but this video was reasonable and made a lot of sense. Thank you for making it!
This is perhaps the video that, out of all the content you have ever created, taught me the most. I think I seriously needed to see this at this point in my life. Thank you so much
2:49 things like this are the reason I love this channel 😂💕
Your way of explaining things...and adding the such scenarios really helped us a lot! You are the best!!!!!!
Thank you folks for making these. I have depression and when I'm feeling down these always give me a little warmth. A little warmth can go along way. Again ,Thank you.
Thank you so much for describing me most of the time. I really appreciate this. A lot of people bully me because I don’t accept their bs. It is better to have a peaceful, happy life where we seek the opportunity to be as content and fulfilled as possible.
A strong sense of self can directly act as a sign of mental strength. This is a superb video, very clear and concise
How do you suggest about developing a strong sense of self?
@@Psych2go I did a beliefs inventory which means I wrote down every single thought I had. Uncensored unedited. It took a few months in total but it was awareness of these ideas that I was holding about life that help me to either accept them or decide to change them. Through awareness, acceptance, and then action, comes transformation of self... from being a former energy vampire who sucks the air out of the room and the life out of friendships, the total persona switch was enabled, eventually being the person who brought Light & love to the room instead💖✌
@@Psych2go I might suggest (when it's possible of course) taking up any hobby with Role Play involved... The current mainstay seems to be TableTop RPG's, like (especially?) D&D... BUT you can also find theater clubs, drama programs and clubs, or even drop a college elective slot into dram, theater, or improv' if it's available. In nearly any of those activities, you'll likely be introduced toi some improv'... AND you'll be taught some Role Play.
Being able to "get into Character" for the Role Play requires you develop a sense of yourself, building your own understandings of your own perspectives in life. Otherwise, when you take up a Role, you'll be asked about this Character you're Playing who IS different from yourself, and you wont have any answers... It's a difficult journey for many, and obviously, harder for some than others. I can honestly say that without the thirty odd years of TTRPG's, I'd have very little understanding of how everything a person does isn't just a random chemical reaction out of a vacuum. I've explored Character types far and wide different from myself, and steadily crystallized the core and structure of who I am, from rough beginnings to who I've become so far in my growth as an individual... and hopefully room enough for who I must become to evolve into my future self.
It also creates (optimally) a safe haven for exploring all the darkest and most disturbing parts of our deeper thoughts, perspectives, and ambitions. Through our fictional Characters, we can have those difficult and uncomfortable conversations because those tough lessons involve consequences on FICTIONAL Characters. Also, optimally, between the Sessions of Role Play, we should share notes with our fellows, taking their constructive advice under notes for possibly more beneficial or creative results later.
The moire complex and evolved our Characters can get, likely also, the more evolved and complex our own perspectives get as our own individuals. ;o)
I still do 4 of these, so I’m halfway there! Not too bad :) I’m getting there!
I feel that everything in this video applies to me, except that lately because I’ve been working through past traumas it has caused me to dwell on the past a lot. But according to the all the books I’m reading on child abuse you have to put in the work and go through the motions before you can heal and move on. I do bottle in my emotions but only temporarily until I’m alone. Crying to me is like purging, I have to do it privately. Thank you for making this video, it’s given me some reassurance.
An outstanding video. The content is lucid, cogent and of a really great value.
I listened to it with rapt attention and repeatedly went back to fully absorb what was being conveyed. One specific thing that I found particularly revealing was that it isn't that the strong people never experience fear; on the contrary they recognize and accept their fears and work through them.
A video of exceptionally high value.
Keep it up!
Me: hmm let’s see if I’m
Mentally strong
Sees first sign
Yeah that’s defiantly me. Whoops.
Aww
I guess I already knew, but this confirmed I'm indeed a mentally strong individual as I "don't do" any of the above. I've come a hell of a long way, but it feels good to have that clear internal understanding of self. Sometimes you have to reach the lowest of lows to go on to reach the highest of highs... Being content.
I can understand how all of those things that they don't do go hand in hand with being mentally strong. Thanks for an inspiring and informative video!
I can totally relate to this! Lots of reading, learning, talking and therapy helped me to become a lot more mentally stronger than I used to be
Yo imagine commenting on a video. Am I right?!
yeah imagine that!
Lol! And it really happens?

Same but so close.
Thank you, I've been trying to find a good way to explain this to people.
The word choice was accurate, the narration was soothing, and the visuals were adorable and informative.
Very good video, also I can related on all of those points and this video brought some clarity to my view of my own mind.
That's so accurate ☺️ Thank you for creating this. I've been reminded how to positively explain why setting healthy boundaries is crucial. And how it's not about egoism or laziness. I hope I'll not need it, but if it should become a topic in job interview, I'll have a good argumentation on my hands.
1) They don't bottle their emotions.
2) They don't live in the past.
3) They are not easily influenced by others.
4) They don't let other people overstep their boundaries.
5) They don't stick to their own perspectives.
6) They don't blame others for their mistakes.
7) They don't fixate on perfection.
8) They don't dread their own company.
The “being peer easily influenced by others” habit and the “narrow perspective” habit are two different extremes.
Thank you so much for creating this channel💕
I love the style of this video! it makes these things seem very possible and a lot less intimidating. good job!
I don't think there is no such thing as a mentally strong person. Everyone has a breaking point I don't care who you are!
Yes, in a quote by Ernest Hemingway, the world breaks everyone...
But some people's breaking point takes longer than others.
Y.S.K I agree but these are good elements to work on
Yea like millitary ppl there mentality last longer then normal ppl
Bro you haven't heard the name David Goggins
I have all of these except for bottling emotions. I tend to force myself into not being affected by heavy emotions. I think I subconsciously fear facing emotional trauma that might dwell inside my mind. But this makes me happy overall to know that I have a decent mental strength.
Yep I am very strong minded and mentally strong. It's not that I was strong eversince but I taught myself how to react to this harsh world. You can do it too, just have the courage to start. ❤️✨
This video has cleared it all. I always doubted myself especially in my past but now I'm glad to watch this video and feel confident about myself. This really proved that I'm mentally strong and I was always right... Thank you for this video. :)
I like how the animation is always cute in every video for such deep topics.
meanwhile it’s 4:29 am and I’m working on a comic
I kid you not it’s exactly the same time at my place
Love to see your comic you hard-working individual :)
Psych2Go I’m finished but no you don’t it’s really dark and I’m kinda embarrassed
Lmao, and I'm making a fanfic on Wattpad 😂😭🥺💜
Niceeee
Wow, I am somewhat exited about how much applied to me. Thanks! 😍 It was hard work!!!
I loved how this video differentiated between introversion and time spent alone. I am very extroverted and love to be with people as much as possible, but I also enjoy myself when I end up alone. I feel validated! Thank you! 😄
Omg I love you guys so much!!! You guys helped me thru a lot thank you!! 💕
Happy to hear! How are you doing now?
@@Psych2go I'm doing fine :) and OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ACTUALLY REPLIED I'M FREAKING OUTT
Wow, this just made me realise how mentally strong I have become. Made my day!
Thank you for sharing this video. It's really comforting to hear the soothing voice of the woman in the video, the animation is bright and cheery, and the purpose to help people grow is amazing! I have subscribed to all notification and I can't wait to see the next video!
This is encouraging. The last things I'm in the process of working on is being able to express myself without bottling emotions and learning to let go of the past. But this video is encouraging in that it makes me think I've definitely been moving in the right direction the past few years.
Omg your voice is so beautiful and calming. 🏆
what mentally strong isn't: me
Bro same-
When I heard “ They don’t bottle up their emotions “ I was like, “NoPe”
@@t0ffeeflower same
mood
Thank you for existing ♥️🙏🏼
Thank you for this. I noticed only a few mistakes that I was doing from these examples and I am willing to try and change them. Your videos help me a lot, big thumbs up :D
Your animation style and your voice is so beautiful ❣️ It always puts me in a good mood. Thank you for your amazing videos 🙂🖤
Thank you for the kind message! We will pass it forward to the team :)
@@Psych2go Thank you for replying 🖤😇♥️
I agree!
A few things to consider:
There is a growing body of literature on resilience- like considering the factors that allow kids from eastern block orphanages to become confident and capable. I highly recommend the book by Southwick and Charney if you want to dive deep. - your friendly, neighborhood psychiatrist
Resilience? What kind of resilience? Do you mean mental fortitude?
M SC Good question and I may end up doing a video to fully explain. Suffice it to say - it appears to be less like a matter of mere perseverance there are appear to be contributions from temperament (innate characteristics) that tend toward being able to surmount different kinds of adversity. You should definitely I check out the book I mention above
This is the most soothing and relaxed voice on the internet
Thanks for making these video - I love watching a lot of your videos as it really helped me a lot... Great that this video is only 6 minutes too!
The artwork is getting better, plus the voice makes the scenes look adorable, quite soothing to watch xD.
As usual thank you for le knowledge 🙏😊
Thank you for the kind comments! We will let the team know :)
The art style is so cute!!^^
Glad you like it! :)
THANK YOU!! I do #2 ALL THE TIME!! & yet others always try to make be feel bad for it like I'm not flexible or stubborn- In fact? I do all of these things, yet people try to tear me down for it and point at it as the reason I'm still single! I'M STILL SINGLE BECAUSE I CHOOSE TO BE!!! Until someone treats me as I want & deserve? I'd rather be alone! Why do so many people not get this!? It's taken me over a decade to get to this level of mental strength! I didn't date at all for most of that time because I was working on myself! I wanted to become a better version of myself to be more deserving of the kind of relationship I desire! I wanted to be a better person for myself, too. After growing up with a lot of abuse & then making all the wrong choices when it came to dating in college? I realized that I needed to learn self-love, self-respect, & how to be mentally strong. I'm not in the least bit perfect and sometimes I do trip up and stumble over old patterns of thought, but I'm getting better every day and I refuse to apologize for being myself nor for others not understanding my journey. It's not theirs to understand! It's mine~ THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!!
I'm stuck in a cycle of bottling my emotions and imploding then exploding they all come out st once
2:49 THAT's a cold face?? 😂😂😂
Absolutely love this channel! Definitely helps me find a peace a mind by the end of the day. ❤️
I have a very great friend from Canada who is a very mentally strong person. They are very honest, and they know themselves very well. They also know the little details about someone, like why or how they’re insecure, and sometimes their favorite things. They also love science, and want to become a teacher when they grow up. A year ago, they used to bottle up their emotions, but now they’ve learned to let go. They are a very huge influence in my life and I am very inspired by them. To you, my friend, I am very proud of you.
wow the first post about me, feels great
"They don't live in the past."
Well, darn. :D
What year ist i there?? :D Seriously, very very few people actually do, you may either be nostalgic, reflective, and/or a scientist (this is not an exclusive historians' thing, peeps - literature, economics, artists, natural sientists of all kinds, etc., pp.), and that's most likely healthy and/or beneficial. You cannot change the past, that's the point, and maybe have arrived at a point when you need to figure out what you actually can, just right now. In fact, that would have made 9. (at least 2.b) on my list.
9: They don't let others down to feel good about themselves
It's so beautiful. Thank you so much. Animator has done so well. Images r awesome
I cant thank you enough for this video. You are doing some amazing work
I think I am mentally strong enough to be myself to this day, alas I feel myself deteriorating with quarantine, I know people out there live me and like me for who I am.
Also y'all ever listen to music, after a good morning and day in general, then as said, listen to music, then all you do is think of her ..?
@Stefanie Indarto you are a girl. You have no problem finding someone else.
@@dreamthedream8929 Excuse me for butting in on a conversation, but what does being a girl have to do with being able to find someone easily? I mean sure, you can find SOMEone pretty easily, but it's so very hard to find THE one. And that's a struggle for all sexual orientations and genders and preferences, not just for cisgender females.
As an INFJ, this is kinda confusing if I'm mentally strong or not
Like literally or
sarcastically 😶
Same
I loved this video! It taught me a lot! But for the people who commented saying they're mentally weak, let me tell you that it isn't right to label a person as mentally strong or mentally weak! In different situations, people act differently! A person can be mentally strong during some hard times and mentally weak during other! So don't give yourself a label and simply try being mentally strong in as many situations as you can!
I feel good because I realized I've made progress since I started to go to therapy and now I can see myself in a lot of those points ^^
"Bottling up emotions"
*My depression just got called out*
