When I was a newly single mom, my apartment was broken into. They stole my computer, phone, money, jewelry and underwear. It was so violating to have someone go through my things. Even to this day, 15 years later, I find myself double checking doors in my house every night.
I’ve had a lot of trauma. I’m 60. I have ptsd, but it does get better. My psychologist helped me a lot. Think on it. We love you Samantha. I’m sorry this happened to you and Aries.❤
Hearing Aries starting to snore quietly in the background as the video progressed was so adorable and made me giggle so much! I love pup snores, especially when they have the deep sleep/dreaming twitches that go along with it. I have a ridiculous amount of videos of my pup laying on the couch snoring, usually with her paws straight in the air & her face smashed into the back couch cushion lol. She's 70 pounds but thinks she's a 5 pound lap dog 😆 Sending 🖤 and support to you & Aries!! Putting out the positive thoughts/vibes & and that stuff so you'll find a new home ASAP. 🖤
I'm so sorry Samantha. I understand feeling like everything is hitting all at once. I lost my 11-year-old dog, Jacob, last week. It came out of nowhere. He's never been sick. My dad is currently in the hospital. There's a lot of other stuff too. While it may seem like the world is out to get us, it isn't. I know that good times will come again. Until then, I will try to make the best of things. I am grateful you and Aries are okay. Yes, things can be replaced, but the feeling of security that they stole, cannot be. It will take time, but I know you will find that security again. Sending hugs to you both.
Trauma isn't comparable. Your mind will adapt in time. It is different from person to person. You are doing fine. You're allowed to be traumatized and scared.
I’m so sorry you are experiencing this trauma. Despite how I can only imagine you are feeling, you do look great. Please seek counseling if you need it. There’s no shame in what you are feeling and struggling with. And there’s no such thing as “powering through” these emotions. You are human and dealing with a frightening event. Love to you and Aries. ❤
I am glad you are moving! I was robbed once and then a few months later they came back. I had no idea there was a robbery clause in my lease and I could have left sooner. Glad you're staying somewhere where you feel safe and that you have good support around you! *hugs*
Everyone recovers from trauma very differently. I commented on a video before that we were robbed while we were sleeping and I woke up to a man looking through my stuff in my room and he took my husband's car among other stuff. To this day, every time I hear noises or my dog barks, no matter the time it could be in the morning or in the middle of the night, I get up in panic and look through the windows to see if someone is outside or trying to rob my car, etc. It's been almost 8yrs. It took me a month to come back to the house and once at home from work, I couldn't go out of my room to even get some water without my husband accompanying me for almost a year. My advice, get help, you'll need it. Take your time, feel your feelings and frustration and cry it out if you need to. It's all part of the process of healing. I truly wish you and Aries the best.
My home was burglarized as well. It’s an awful, debilitating , frightening feeling. I can’t imagine walking in as it was in progress. That’s horrifying. It’s all traumatic, no matter how you slice it. Thankfully, with time & therapy, that high level of anxiety & loss decreased. I’m now a therapist myself & strongly recommend EMDR to help resolve the trauma. All the best to you, Samantha 💜
I’m a trauma psychologist and the book The Body Keeps the Score has helped so many of my patients understand the impacts of trauma on their physiological and neurological functioning. It is a very well written, research supported book written by a very well respected leading scholar and practitioner in the field. Understanding the impacts and connections between trauma and subsequent experience is the first step in recovery ♥️ I’m so sorry you’re going through this. And, if you’re not already, it might be helpful to talk with a therapist who specializes in trauma. But you know what’s right for you
Oh my goodness Sam! I had no idea about what happened! in what video did you talk about it? I must've missed it. I'm so sorry this happened to you. Sending you and Aries lots of love
I suffer from anxiety and panic disorder and I find after a panic attack or a high anxiety day I find that my mouth is very dry. I chew sugar free gum all of the time and it helps so much. Thinking of you so much. Xo.
You can literally do a video on anything and I’d watch BUT, you asked for suggestions so…an updated tattoo tour? Any new tattoos or current thoughts on tattoos. Tattoos= Beauty to me! ❤ Wish you all all the best- sorry everything is so hard right now. ❤
…could include your new tattoo after care routine. & how you maintain your tattoos (skin/sun care). ❤😅 Just trying to come up with something I really think a lot of us might be interested in. Tattoos are everywhere now. 🥰
I'm 66 years old and have been broken into twice. I was a 20 year old newlywed who lived in a very old, small trailer and didn't own much the first time. Second time I was 50 years old living in a nice home. The second time my stepdaughter sent 2 of her friends to rob us. They took just a few items that she told them about including my great grandmother's wedding ring and my mother's promise ring from my dad. Oh, and she had just given it to me 2 weeks before. I never told her about that. It takes awhile to "get over it", but you do. And the first time it was some people who lived near us, they took our 19" TV, the small stereo and the spoon ring my husband made me.
I am so sorry Samantha ! I can’t believe how many hurtful and scary people there are in this world! I know how hard it is to get through something traumatic like this, but I know you are such a strong person and you will heal from this ! I’m just so grateful that you and Ares are both safe and have a place to go ! Sending y’all love and hope from Colorado!
Sending you and Aries so much love I hope you're able to find a new place to live soon and that it's miles better than your old apartment. Maybe once you move, you could look into some security systems just to give you more peace of mind? Something with cameras that could let you monitor things in real time might help ease you into living alone again.
Couple thoughts: 1) Always glad to see your videos, whenever you post them. ❤️ 2) I would love to know more about the dry brushing for lymphatic drainage. 3) Sounds like you have wonderful friends and I’m certain they don’t feel like you are intruding…..that’s what friends do, help one another. 4) You said you haven’t been doing as much self care lately…..gurl! coconut and vanilla can only go so far 😂 Get in that shower ! Hope that gave you a chuckle! Continued prayers for you and Aries!
One thing at a time. DMV one day, I’m sure u called ur bank and cc companies. Note to all we need to keep phone #s and cc#s in a safe place and in phone for easy access.
Catching up on all your videos and I am happy to see that all though you are having a really hard time, you're at least trying. That takes a lot of courage and so far you are doing so good. 💕💕♈♈
I urge you to be gentle with yourself and feel all the things, good and bad. I say this because I have suffered health problems because I underestimated the mind body connection. Eventually our inner stress comes to the surface and can affect physical health. Get all the support now and dont judge yourself. This is a traumatic event for sure and you deserve all the care and gentleness right now.
When I was a child all of our windows were broken by drunken people throwing bricks through them and it isn't something that is easy to process or to deal with. It took me a long time to feel safe in my own home and if someone knocks on our door, I don't answer and on a bad day, hide under my desk. I am so sorry that this happened to you and I am so glad that you had somewhere to go. I hope you are able to find a sense of safety. Time helps.
Your hair looks lovely. More importantly, your personality is lovely. All love to you and Aries ♈️. Please convey to your friends thanks from the Sam Squad for your new home. We love you 🎉
Hope you and Aries are doing better. Bless Ashley for taking you two in. On the other hand, your makeup is looking so damn beautiful even though I can't see up close. But I think the eyeliner is making it pop. I love it
I really enjoyed this video. You are doing so well with creating content just by sharing what’s going on. I think you’re an inspiration on how you handle all the hurdles in life that you are facing right now.❤
Sending much love and hugs for you in this time! I do have to commend on you appearance - my gosh do you look stunning! Hope you settle well in your new home with Aries by your side ♥️
Sending you and Aries tons of love, Samantha. I’m so sorry to hear that you’re going through trauma. It’s completely normal and understandable that you’re experiencing effects in your body, mind and spirit. When you are ready and more settled, you might benefit from looking into a trauma therapy specialist, such as an EMDR practitioner. Sending you wishes for reduced suffering soon 💗✨💞
Try Biotene mouthwash for fry mouth. It’s made for those struggles. Once you have processed through some of this trauma, hopefully the dry mouth will subside. Stay strong ❤
As someone who has experienced a home invasion while I was sleeping and the man had a gun. I can tell you from my experience my body went through it. He attacked me a gun point. I was very very lucky that I was able to get him off me and I ran outside in my PJ’s and my phone. I called 911 and it the swat team 5 hours to get him out of my home! Everyone’s body acts differently. I had dry mouth for about two months and to this day I always have to have a water or drink with me at all times. My psychiatrist and I are still working on that. My body would breakout in hives, I would constantly shake even when I was with my family and close friends. I looked at every person when I was out running errands, I ended up with OCD rituals after my home invasion. It takes a lot of time Sam. It’s only been two weeks so please give yourself some grace. I completely understand the feeling of having to stay with someone and feeling like your in the way or feeling intruding on them, your not! You go through so many different things in your mind especially since the police think the intruder was still in your apartment! I know that I felt so violated. I knew the man was in jail and he still is in prison today and doesn’t get out for 15 more years. I’m in no way trying to tell you what you need but therapy, PTSD therapy and I have a support group of people who went through similar situations as me that I go to every other week and all of that has really helped me. I do recommend a self defense course if you haven’t ever taken one. But time is what you need lots of love is what you need and a lot of support is what you need. Also finding a place that you feel safe in! I’ve been praying for you and Aries every day and I send you love, light and positive vibes xoxo 💜🫶🏼 You will get through this! I know everything is thrown off and you and Aries like a routine. I’m so sorry you had to go through something so scary! Aries absolutely saved you by not letting you in the bedroom!! Aries is an Angel 😇
Trauma is real and how long it takes to "get over" is different from person to person. I had a stalker who had broken into my apt luckily I wasn't home but my sense of security was gone. It has taken years and counseling to deal with the PTSD. I still feel uneasy at times but it does get better. Stay strong and hopefully the police will catch the person who did this to you.
So sorry for what you have gone through and still going through. This is a good video. I have had dry mouth for years. It may be from meds, stress, or autoimmune issues. Yours will probably go away. Thanks for reminding me about the tongue scraper. I haven’t been using mine regularly😊
I was in a armed robbery while working in the pharmacy in 2015 where the guy came barging in and put the gun to myself and my co-workers head forcing us to the floor. Thankfully he reached out to me to hold my hand because my son was working at the front register because we thought the girl was going into labor. So it was my life as well as my sons on the line. Thankfully nobody was hurt as he got out of the store before I paged for help or he would’ve been locked in with us. I did have to id him and he did serve time but not enough for as many crimes that he’s done. Since then I have severe PTSD with panic/anxiety attacks whenever I see a gun, even if it’s someone I know or police knowing they’re there to protect me. I’ve had my chihuahua since she was conceived and when this happened she became even more attached to me and very protective over me. She is now my ESA and service dog and I’m so very thankful for her everyday. We both taught each other what I need and she’s amazing. Just like Aries alerts you when somethings wrong or you’re sad , my girl does that to me even before I have an attack. You’ll get there girl.
You look very pretty in this video. I know im commenting alot but i feel like you need the support. We can all make a difference and you and Aires do that.
Samantha, You take care of your mental health and working on what has to be done first. Just because you might not being XYZ doesn't mean you've forgot you need to do so. You have to start where you're at in the moment and if down the road you have to completely start your health journey over when you get to that point you will. With all this said I also know your a strong, confident, warm, caring, loving women that is a strong hard fighter that will get through this in time, but until then from one military family member to another we'll all have your six!!! #SamAndAriesSquad Loads of Love🫂
Playing video cath up today so glad you an Aries are safe wishing lots of luck that the process of moving forward getting all this as sorted as possible is as smooth as pssible for you
Sam I have to say you look really pretty today. Love the hair and makeup. You could still show us your outfit. Im glad you and Aries are safe. Sucks about your license/jewelry. My Hollywood apartment door was kicked in when I wasn't home. Items were stolen but luckily my black lab stayed inside unharmed. My car was also broken into with nothing visible to go thru glove box. Native Coconut Vanilla is my fave deodorant will try the spray. Orig Dior Backstage 1.5 is my hg. I spot treat zits with The Ordinary Niacinamide /1% Zinc. Dab it on before bed zits gone or redness gone overnight. Stay strong girl. Hugs 🥰
someone stole my car out of my garage WHILE I WAS HOME earlier this year. Going out the next morning and finding it gone was SO weird, so i feel you. I got the car back, but it took me over a month to feel comfortable driving it again. Idk there's something about that that's so uncomfortable and eerie feeling.
I don’t know if you are doing therapy- but when I went thru trauma- that helped me. And hypnotherapy helped me w PTSD as welll. Good luck- I hope you find peace soon 💕💕
I feel your pain. A good therapist who deals with PSD could help you, too! The being scared is extremely normal and unsettling, along with dry mouth. Which when a person is subconsciously nervous inside. That is a side effect. I highly suggest a good psychiatrist if you need some type of medication for a short period of time. You have a lot on your plate, lady! Give yourself time. With being displaced, Aries is so ill, and now now, where is safe. Sleep is also your best friend if you can get some. Thank God you have such generous friends. That should give you some peace of mind. Knowing they are there. Instead of being all alone! I hope you had great renters insurance, too. Your next home. I would definitely consider getting a good security system, too. That will also make you and Aries feel much safer. You're doing. Great.. Time is your friend here. Just take some Sam time and seek a professional in that field that makes you feel free to speak your mind. Not to rush to diagnose you. A doctor of psychiatry that truly listens to you. I think you will find answers to lots of your questions and concerns. As you look for a new home. That will give you a sense of peace. Will also be extremely beneficial to you!
I was robbed the year after college. (I have a question at the end about a product you shared just before 18:56 - I’m curious what exactly it is bc I want to try it, but anyway..) I was randomly staying at my then bf’s house bc my lease was up and I had a month before I could move into my new place. It wasn’t strangers but it was friends of his roommate’s. Somehow they were left alone in the house one night and my laptop (that was =$5k in today’s $$ with inflation over time, bc laptops weren’t something everyone had back in 2001. My mom had saved for a long time to get it for me.) and then actual money was taken and other random things I don’t remember now (blacked out memories)… it still makes me feel some sort of way when new people are over, like my 19 yr old’s friends. Especially if they stay the night, if I don’t know them well. I had kind of forgotten about the incident until this happened to you and I can imagine why you want to move. I was happy to be away from that house and to have my brand new apartment to move into that I now realize I probably felt safer in than I would have otherwise. No one else had lived there so there were no previous keys or anything like that so that felt good. It’s interesting thinking of it now and the tightening in my stomach, like it’s truly feeling like it’s twisting into a big knot, thinking of when that happened. My question is what is the PHA eye cream you mentioned? I didn’t see it in the description box. I ADORE PHAs and would really love to try that eye product. Thanks, Sam, and all my good energy goes out to you. It all must feel awful and kind of scary to go in your bedroom. Have you found a new place yet?? It sounds like you’re now getting ready for the move so I’m hoping you’re not having to wait too long to be able to have a safe space of your own again. Lots of love #samsquad always
Hugs girl ❤ So glad you have a close bestie Ashley has been a godsend.. I want you to have a fun relaxing night one day and do with the odens eye a look with it .. actually do 4 looks ( both you and Ashley do 2 looks each) that would be awesome!! I know those palettes will be your fav and keep your minds busy for a while ❤❤ hugs girl ..
I’m so sorry this happened to you and Aries ♈️ give yourself some time are you able to get back your security that you put down on the apartment when you rented Had you ever been sage try to look into it get the new apartment cleanse which stager read (the Smudging and Balessings book by Jane Alexander) as your space is energy and energy it’s everywhere in your apartment and around you you could even get yourself siege and your dog. It’s just a thought and helped me a lot thank only positive thoughts I wish you good things only love you Sam be strong I’m here for you ❤❤❤🦮🦮🦮🧚♀️
Your body is more prone to acid reflux during periods of intense stress and anxiety, which can negatively impact your salivary glands and lead to less saliva production. I found this online. I hope it helps Sam! So sorry you’re going through all of this. Much love to you and Aries.
Sam, I have something call "Sjogrens." (Pronounced Show-Grins.) It's an autoimmune disease that affects the moisture in your body. The number one symptom is dry mouth. You should be tested for it. There is medication that helps tremendously. It takes most people years to figure out that they have it. In my case, 8 years. I hope this helps! My heart is with you, sweetheart. I hope and pray for your peace of mind, and happiness, always. Aires too! 💜😀😍💜
Okay - more questions. What is the device for your hair you use? And what exactly is the powdery tobacco fragrance bc it’s right up my alley! I wear men’s cologne as perfume. And I love tobacco scents in perfume and candles! p.s. I watched all the way through, as always. But trying to support with comments which I’m bad about bc I’ll watch on my tv a lot. I wish you all the best!
I'm glad you're friend took you and Aries in there home When things go wrong ya know who is your true friends are I'm so sorry this happened to you and Aries IS Aries still going through her cancer treatments
Wait, I missed something. Samantha was robbed, as in someone broke in while she was sleeping and held her up? Or was she burgled, as in someone broke in and stole things while she was not home. Both are scary and traumatic, but one is terrifying and my biggest fear.
I tried to find the first video you did with Ashley where you interviewed her in the conference room at the complex I think. I can't remember...is she married? Does she work from home? I just realized you are not wearing your Dior rings. Please don't say those were taken as well 😥. Has this person been caught yet or seen on camera anywhere? Stress and anxiety can cause dry mouth sometimes. It is weird how our bodies respond to different things that affect us. Try Biotin Moisturizing mouth wash. It is formulated for dry mouth and it works great! Well, some of those questions just got answered. That's what I get when I type during the video instead of waiting for the end. Oh well!
@@PrincessHeathaB thx for that info, I've been wondering ever since this happened since she said something about her and Aries being able to get away. Where did she mention it?
Sam, have you ever considered therapy ? Maybe a group of people who experienced similar things? 2 weeks is nothing. You're doing really well although you don't feel like you are. You will be fine. Give yourself some grace and patience. Easier said than done. Yes I know.
I can see Allie glines Makeup holders. I think just do as you want for downloads videos. Updates Aries A. If not to sad. I’m really sorry. I see you smile, but I know you are sad. Are you going to move soon? Or ?? I know you do not care about house. You would have so much space. And you can still rent. Have everything fixed by owners. I mean even if you don’t have a dog. Maybe you don’t want to be alone in a house ?? I know you mentioned it about staying in Apt. think about garage, own yard, no noise, elevators I mean money is same I think ?. Anyway. Love anything you video #SamSquad #AriesisQueen
Anxiety & stress causes dry mouth, I suffer with chronic dry mouth since I was a little girl. I also have ulcers which are caused by the same thing. [I am a sexual abuse survivor.] Being robbed & your safe space violated is a distant cousin of SA.
🌷Good Video As Always🌷 🥰Lovely thumbNail Tho🥰 Sam N Aries Squad ForEver Beyond Beautifully You Are Ur Makeup Always Look Pretty Those Breathtaking Eyes Love Em Nice Ass Cheeks Bones Good morning Enjoy the rest of your Good Week Happy Fabulous Weekend Ahead Stay Bless N Be safe Always
I’m a behavior specialist, and trauma can totally have a physical effect! Dry mouth is not an uncommon stress response!
Sometimes, "healthy habits" means "I'm taking another breath. Then, I'll take another breath." And sometimes, that's enough.
When I was a newly single mom, my apartment was broken into. They stole my computer, phone, money, jewelry and underwear. It was so violating to have someone go through my things. Even to this day, 15 years later, I find myself double checking doors in my house every night.
I’ve had a lot of trauma. I’m 60. I have ptsd, but it does get better. My psychologist helped me a lot. Think on it. We love you Samantha. I’m sorry this happened to you and Aries.❤

I just want to let you know that you and I have a common trait. Your tenderness and vulnerability is actually beautiful. I appreciate that about you.
One thing at a time. DMV one day, I’m sure u called ur bank and cc companies. Note to all we need to keep phone #s and cc#s in a safe place and in phone for easy access.
❤😊 This was a great video to do and so proud of you. The products you are almost done with are fantastic!!!!! Way to go girl. Love to you and Aries ❤
For a terrible thing to happen to you & Aries, love the content in the interim. And your hair looks gorgeous, Sam! ❤🥰💖
Catching up on all your videos and I am happy to see that all though you are having a really hard time, you're at least trying. That takes a lot of courage and so far you are doing so good. 💕💕♈♈
Love seeing what people pack, for some odd reason! Thanks for showing us, Sam! Sending good vibes only your way 😚❤
Happy you abs Aeies are safe. Take your time!❤❤❤
I urge you to be gentle with yourself and feel all the things, good and bad. I say this because I have suffered health problems because I underestimated the mind body connection.

I think I could hear Aries snoozing at one point.❤❤ prayers for your and your sweet baby.

Strength to Aries for her upcoming birthday! ❤
Love the water mister to mist my curly hair to refresh!
I’m a RN and dry mouth can definitely be caused by increased stress and anxiety! Biotene spray helps me with that!
Hope you and Aries are doing better. Bless Ashley for taking you two in. On the other hand, your makeup is looking so damn beautiful even though I can't see up close. But I think the eyeliner is making it pop. I love it
I really enjoyed this video. You are doing so well with creating content just by sharing what’s going on. I think you’re an inspiration on how you handle all the hurdles in life that you are facing right now.❤
Sending much love and hugs for you in this time! I do have to commend on you appearance - my gosh do you look stunning! Hope you settle well in your new home with Aries by your side ♥️
Sending you and Aries tons of love, Samantha. I’m so sorry to hear that you’re going through trauma. It’s completely normal and understandable that you’re experiencing effects in your body, mind and spirit. When you are ready and more settled, you might benefit from looking into a trauma therapy specialist, such as an EMDR practitioner. Sending you wishes for reduced suffering soon 💗✨💞
I was a witness to a murder and EMDR therapy was the main thing that helped me move forward.
Try Biotene mouthwash for fry mouth. It’s made for those struggles. Once you have processed through some of this trauma, hopefully the dry mouth will subside. Stay strong ❤
Thanks for all the great recommendations! So sorry about the robbery.
As someone who has experienced a home invasion while I was sleeping and the man had a gun. I can tell you from my experience my body went through it. He attacked me a gun point. I was very very lucky that I was able to get him off me and I ran outside in my PJ’s and my phone. I called 911 and it the swat team 5 hours to get him out of my home!
Everyone’s body acts differently. I had dry mouth for about two months and to this day I always have to have a water or drink with me at all times. My psychiatrist and I are still working on that. My body would breakout in hives, I would constantly shake even when I was with my family and close friends. I looked at every person when I was out running errands, I ended up with OCD rituals after my home invasion. It takes a lot of time Sam. It’s only been two weeks so please give yourself some grace. I completely understand the feeling of having to stay with someone and feeling like your in the way or feeling intruding on them, your not! You go through so many different things in your mind especially since the police think the intruder was still in your apartment! I know that I felt so violated. I knew the man was in jail and he still is in prison today and doesn’t get out for 15 more years.
I’m in no way trying to tell you what you need but therapy, PTSD therapy and I have a support group of people who went through similar situations as me that I go to every other week and all of that has really helped me. I do recommend a self defense course if you haven’t ever taken one.
But time is what you need lots of love is what you need and a lot of support is what you need. Also finding a place that you feel safe in!
I’ve been praying for you and Aries every day and I send you love, light and positive vibes xoxo 💜🫶🏼 You will get through this! I know everything is thrown off and you and Aries like a routine. I’m so sorry you had to go through something so scary! Aries absolutely saved you by not letting you in the bedroom!! Aries is an Angel 😇
Trauma is real and how long it takes to "get over" is different from person to person. I had a stalker who had broken into my apt luckily I wasn't home but my sense of security was gone. It has taken years and counseling to deal with the PTSD. I still feel uneasy at times but it does get better. Stay strong and hopefully the police will catch the person who did this to you.
So sorry for what you have gone through and still going through. This is a good video. I have had dry mouth for years. It may be from meds, stress, or autoimmune issues. Yours will probably go away. Thanks for reminding me about the tongue scraper. I haven’t been using mine regularly😊
I was in a armed robbery while working in the pharmacy in 2015 where the guy came barging in and put the gun to myself and my co-workers head forcing us to the floor. Thankfully he reached out to me to hold my hand because my son was working at the front register because we thought the girl was going into labor. So it was my life as well as my sons on the line. Thankfully nobody was hurt as he got out of the store before I paged for help or he would’ve been locked in with us. I did have to id him and he did serve time but not enough for as many crimes that he’s done. Since then I have severe PTSD with panic/anxiety attacks whenever I see a gun, even if it’s someone I know or police knowing they’re there to protect me. I’ve had my chihuahua since she was conceived and when this happened she became even more attached to me and very protective over me. She is now my ESA and service dog and I’m so very thankful for her everyday. We both taught each other what I need and she’s amazing. Just like Aries alerts you when somethings wrong or you’re sad , my girl does that to me even before I have an attack. You’ll get there girl.
You look very pretty in this video. I know im commenting alot but i feel like you need the support. We can all make a difference and you and Aires do that.
Samantha, You take care of your mental health and working on what has to be done first. Just because you might not being XYZ doesn't mean you've forgot you need to do so. You have to start where you're at in the moment and if down the road you have to completely start your health journey over when you get to that point you will. With all this said I also know your a strong, confident, warm, caring, loving women that is a strong hard fighter that will get through this in time, but until then from one military family member to another we'll all have your six!!! #SamAndAriesSquad Loads of Love🫂
Playing video cath up today so glad you an Aries are safe wishing lots of luck that the process of moving forward getting all this as sorted as possible is as smooth as pssible for you
Trauma can cause so many changes in your body. Continuing to keep you in my thoughts! ❤
Sam I have to say you look really pretty today. Love the hair and makeup. You could still show us your outfit. Im glad you and Aries are safe. Sucks about your license/jewelry. My Hollywood apartment door was kicked in when I wasn't home. Items were stolen but luckily my black lab stayed inside unharmed. My car was also broken into with nothing visible to go thru glove box. Native Coconut Vanilla is my fave deodorant will try the spray. Orig Dior Backstage 1.5 is my hg. I spot treat zits with The Ordinary Niacinamide /1% Zinc. Dab it on before bed zits gone or redness gone overnight. Stay strong girl. Hugs 🥰
Hang in there girl. Sending love and prayers
Day 2 at new job! So sorry you’re going thru this.
Thanks for sharing!!! Hope y'all find a new place soon 💜💜
someone stole my car out of my garage WHILE I WAS HOME earlier this year. Going out the next morning and finding it gone was SO weird, so i feel you. I got the car back, but it took me over a month to feel comfortable driving it again. Idk there's something about that that's so uncomfortable and eerie feeling.
I don’t know if you are doing therapy- but when I went thru trauma- that helped me.
And hypnotherapy helped me w PTSD as welll.
Good luck- I hope you find peace soon 💕💕
Keep on keeping on. You’ll get through it.
This is a gem of an idea
Hang in there Samantha! 💙
I feel your pain. A good therapist who deals with PSD could help you, too! The being scared is extremely normal and unsettling, along with dry mouth. Which when a person is subconsciously nervous inside. That is a side effect. I highly suggest a good psychiatrist if you need some type of medication for a short period of time. You have a lot on your plate, lady! Give yourself time. With being displaced, Aries is so ill, and now now, where is safe. Sleep is also your best friend if you can get some. Thank God you have such generous friends. That should give you some peace of mind. Knowing they are there. Instead of being all alone! I hope you had great renters insurance, too. Your next home. I would definitely consider getting a good security system, too. That will also make you and Aries feel much safer. You're doing. Great.. Time is your friend here. Just take some Sam time and seek a professional in that field that makes you feel free to speak your mind. Not to rush to diagnose you. A doctor of psychiatry that truly listens to you. I think you will find answers to lots of your questions and concerns. As you look for a new home. That will give you a sense of peace. Will also be extremely beneficial to you!
I was robbed the year after college.
(I have a question at the end about a product you shared just before 18:56 - I’m curious what exactly it is bc I want to try it, but anyway..)
I was randomly staying at my then bf’s house bc my lease was up and I had a month before I could move into my new place. It wasn’t strangers but it was friends of his roommate’s. Somehow they were left alone in the house one night and my laptop (that was =$5k in today’s $$ with inflation over time, bc laptops weren’t something everyone had back in 2001. My mom had saved for a long time to get it for me.) and then actual money was taken and other random things I don’t remember now (blacked out memories)… it still makes me feel some sort of way when new people are over, like my 19 yr old’s friends. Especially if they stay the night, if I don’t know them well.
I had kind of forgotten about the incident until this happened to you and I can imagine why you want to move. I was happy to be away from that house and to have my brand new apartment to move into that I now realize I probably felt safer in than I would have otherwise. No one else had lived there so there were no previous keys or anything like that so that felt good.
It’s interesting thinking of it now and the tightening in my stomach, like it’s truly feeling like it’s twisting into a big knot, thinking of when that happened.
My question is what is the PHA eye cream you mentioned? I didn’t see it in the description box. I ADORE PHAs and would really love to try that eye product.
Thanks, Sam, and all my good energy goes out to you. It all must feel awful and kind of scary to go in your bedroom.
Have you found a new place yet?? It sounds like you’re now getting ready for the move so I’m hoping you’re not having to wait too long to be able to have a safe space of your own again.
Lots of love #samsquad always
Hang in there girl!!!
Me heart goes out to you Samantha, prayers and many blessings to you🥰🙏🏼I can imagine how traumatic this has been for you🙏🏼
Hugs girl ❤ So glad you have a close bestie Ashley has been a godsend..
I want you to have a fun relaxing night one day and do with the odens eye a look with it .. actually do 4 looks ( both you and Ashley do 2 looks each) that would be awesome!! I know those palettes will be your fav and keep your minds busy for a while ❤❤ hugs girl ..
Sending love to you and Aries ❤
Try the biotène dry mouth moisturizing gel
What do you think of the Peach Slices snail mucin? I want to try it but I want your opinion first lol
Ive went through so.ething similar. Its scary
I’m so sorry this happened to you and Aries ♈️ give yourself some time are you able to get back your security that you put down on the apartment when you rented Had you ever been sage try to look into it get the new apartment cleanse which stager read (the Smudging and Balessings book by Jane Alexander) as your space is energy and energy it’s everywhere in your apartment and around you you could even get yourself siege and your dog. It’s just a thought and helped me a lot thank only positive thoughts I wish you good things only love you Sam be strong I’m here for you ❤❤❤🦮🦮🦮🧚♀️
Your body is more prone to acid reflux during periods of intense stress and anxiety, which can negatively impact your salivary glands and lead to less saliva production.
I found this online. I hope it helps Sam!
So sorry you’re going through all of this. Much love to you and Aries.
Sam, I have something call "Sjogrens." (Pronounced Show-Grins.) It's an autoimmune disease that affects the moisture in your body. The number one symptom is dry mouth. You should be tested for it. There is medication that helps tremendously. It takes most people years to figure out that they have it. In my case, 8 years. I hope this helps! My heart is with you, sweetheart. I hope and pray for your peace of mind, and happiness, always. Aires too! 💜😀😍💜
We all love you 😊
Okay - more questions.
What is the device for your hair you use?
And what exactly is the powdery tobacco fragrance bc it’s right up my alley! I wear men’s cologne as perfume. And I love tobacco scents in perfume and candles!
p.s. I watched all the way through, as always. But trying to support with comments which I’m bad about bc I’ll watch on my tv a lot. I wish you all the best!
I'm glad you're friend took you and Aries in there home When things go wrong ya know who is your true friends are I'm so sorry this happened to you and Aries IS Aries still going through her cancer treatments
I believe they've stopped the chemo, moved to the hospice phase if treatment.
I wasn't sure if it was Aries snoring or my sisters dog Fawn who is sleeping next to me.
You look lovely!
Wait, I missed something. Samantha was robbed, as in someone broke in while she was sleeping and held her up? Or was she burgled, as in someone broke in and stole things while she was not home. Both are scary and traumatic, but one is terrifying and my biggest fear.
I tried to find the first video you did with Ashley where you interviewed her in the conference room at the complex I think. I can't remember...is she married? Does she work from home? I just realized you are not wearing your Dior rings. Please don't say those were taken as well 😥. Has this person been caught yet or seen on camera anywhere? Stress and anxiety can cause dry mouth sometimes. It is weird how our bodies respond to different things that affect us. Try Biotin Moisturizing mouth wash. It is formulated for dry mouth and it works great! Well, some of those questions just got answered. That's what I get when I type during the video instead of waiting for the end. Oh well!
This is very random, but on one of the videos you made some guy walked into your backyard. Do you think that had anything to do with the robbery?
🙏🏾🫶🏾🙏🏾🫶🏾🙏🏾♈️👑
💗💗💗💗
❤❤❤❤
Did the cop's find out who broke in your home Does the apartment complex have cams
Were you in the apartment when the robbery happened? Bacause that's very scary......
I was wondering the same
She said her and Aries walked in on the robbery in progress.
@@PrincessHeathaB thx for that info, I've been wondering ever since this happened since she said something about her and Aries being able to get away. Where did she mention it?
Sam, have you ever considered therapy ? Maybe a group of people who experienced similar things? 2 weeks is nothing. You're doing really well although you don't feel like you are.
You will be fine. Give yourself some grace and patience. Easier said than done. Yes I know.
I can see Allie glines Makeup holders. I think just do as you want for downloads videos. Updates Aries A. If not to sad. I’m really sorry. I see you smile, but I know you are sad. Are you going to move soon? Or ?? I know you do not care about house. You would have so much space. And you can still rent. Have everything fixed by owners. I mean even if you don’t have a dog. Maybe you don’t want to be alone in a house ?? I know you mentioned it about staying in Apt. think about garage, own yard, no noise, elevators I mean money is same I think ?. Anyway. Love anything you video #SamSquad #AriesisQueen
❤
I'm glad you are oakey😊
This is really traumatic especially for a female living alone. If I lived alone again I would get a German Shepherd.
Hi beautiful
Dry mouth maybe because of anxiety
Anxiety & stress causes dry mouth, I suffer with chronic dry mouth since I was a little girl. I also have ulcers which are caused by the same thing. [I am a sexual abuse survivor.] Being robbed & your safe space violated is a distant cousin of SA.
I'm So Sorry this happened to you. Maybe you need to do a self defense class. Might help
🌷Good Video As Always🌷
