Sending love to my Spoonie family and all the people I found on TikTok who helped me feel less alone, living with an invisible illness is a daily battle, I have EDS JHS CFS IBS and POTS to name just a few. Whatever you are dealing with know that you are not alone. I see you, you are not invisible.
Hello my friends, been a long time. I am pretty nervous about sharing this video, the phrase "I might delete this later...' comes to mind. I'm not sure of the reaction but I appreciate all the support. I have avoided coming online because it was a reminder of my inability to create videos. I've put on a brave face but it has been a struggle, even as I write this I am exhausted and feeling so unwell. I want to take the time to reply to everyone I can but it might take me some time before I get to everyone. I'm so thankful to you for taking the time to send a message, I have felt so guilty for not being able to respond. I hope you bare with me as I try to catch up. Thank you for the kind words, it means so much to me. - Sinead ❤️
Sending you all the love ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@bexblah thank you lovely ❤️ I feel ready to finally catch up on everything, excited to watch your vlogs, hope you are still living your best life 🙌😘
Thanks for your honesty! It takes a real strong and brave person to acknowledge you need help and your body may fail you though you do your best. Don't push yourself for others. Just let yourself feel and do whatever gives you peace of mind. Love from Ecuador, you are an amazing human being Sinead
It´s brave to be honest and you are taking a step towards respecting yourself and your boundaries by telling the people around you that you indeed have boundaries. A lot of people watch your channel and you are a good advocate speaking for all of us with invisible illnesses. I have gotten better and in time living with the same illness and I think you will too. It takes a long time to be brave enough to respect limitations and handle life in a way that´s completely differently to what it once was. My biggest lesson was that by doing less, in time I could do more. Don´t push limits because of things you think you need to do for others, always listen to your own needs first. Sending you all my love!
hope you get better! it is indeed very hard and indeed you can feel invisible through all that. and it's ok that you find it hard, because it is and it is okay to feel disappointed. and you made it, i feel less alone. you also taught me how to do my makeup 8-9 years ago. :)
Chronic illnesses are so misunderstood by those who don’t suffer from them. The daily pain, lack of energy, and just never feeling “okay”, etc. I hate it; wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Even now with this neverending pandemic, it’s like one more added weight. As if all the usual symptoms aren’t enough now we have to worry about this too.
You and what you need is more important than any of us. Do what you need to do and we will support you in whatever that is. 💕
It honestly sounds like physical depression even if the emotional component isn't there... breaks my heart for y'all...
Ah Sinead this video was so raw and real. I am so sorry to hear about your chronic illness I can not imagine how difficult it must be for you. You are so brave for coming online and telling your story. You will help so many people by making this video. Xx
I love you. I follow your videos too. This shows your empathy and kindness towards others which I applaud.
Your problems are not diminished by the problems of others. Thank you for sharing. Thank you for fighting. You are worth fighting for
I’m so grateful for your tutorials but I will fully support you in what ever decision you make. Keeping up the content is really hard and I acknowledge that, I’m sure other people do too.
Thank you lovely, I appreciate it so much ❤️
Nicely put 😊!
We will understand Fully 🥰
Hey from Helsinki Finland 👋Charlotte
I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (with POTS and MCAS and all of that) and a Chiari Malformation. I see you - and you are not alone, neither in your physical suffering nor in the way your professional life has had to change. I love my career as a brass and woodwind teacher, but had to leave it for 14 years, and I just started teaching and playing in the last month or two. And you are NOT complaining; you are helping people understand us better, and what a great thing it is for you to do with this platform. (Groceries TWICE?? Two days in a row??? You’re a total rockstar.)
Please remember that your pain is YOUR pain, not to be diminished by comparison to others.
And also, this really sucks.
And we’re not crazy.
I would love to connect with you.
Sending you zebra love.
Thank you so much for this... I have a chronic illness.. Fibromyalgia and CFS... I hate being trapped inside this usless body. I was so hard working, so independent. If had to stop working, letting my family down both financially and physically is killing me... I know people look at me and think she looks fine what's the problem??? And I can't explain the pain the exhaustion. I totally get what you mean about wanting to run away because I wana go there too. However I've no idea where there is... its never ending and is frustrating and its horrible.. your such an inspiration. Thank you xxx
I had 4 autoimmunes that impacted my life horrifically and I came close to losing my work. I remember the fear and frustration that I felt. I am so grateful that my Functional Dr helped me to have healed. For me to have healed and have my health back and be able to function completely is such an amazing gift that I try to be grateful for every day. I feel for you sweet girl. Do not give up. I have missed you Sinead but, do what is right for you. Sending healing prayers to you. ♥ Elle
It takes so many years for us to learn to live with the ups and downs of our health and the waves of depression that goes along with them.
I have a chronic illness or rather a few of them and I completely understand. There’s days where I cry when nobody knows and days when I get so angry I could scream. Multiple Dr visits and not being able to do the things I’ve always done. Feeling like you’re letting your family snd yourself down but not being able to do anything about it. I’ve been dealing with this for over 20 yrs and I’m sick of being sick and being in pain. Unless you deal with this daily you have no clue how exhausting it is. Thanks for sharing your struggle
As someone with a chronic illness, is very distressing when you feel like no one understands, especially when your illness is not 'visible' for everyone else and they tag you as dramatic or overreacting. It is very tough, not knowing if you'll feel better on the next day, even the next hour.
I wish all the best for you, your channel is an actual favorite of mine, and believe me I understand. It's very hard taking time for yourself and feeling like you should do more, but in reality, without our health or without feeling well at the very least every tasks seems so draining and impossible.
I hope with all my heart for healthier and happy days ahead for you and everyone else with chronic / invisible illnesses. 💛
We love you. I hope and pray for your wellness and strength. 🙏❤️
I completely understand and feel the same feelings you have. You are describing my life, and millions of others. Like you and so many others, autoimmune disease has taken away my ability to work, caused severe depression, and the end of my 28 year marriage. My ex didn't believe the severity of symptoms, didn't believe in depression and couldn't deal with the limitations I now have. So an affair and divorce were his answers. Chronic disease often changes one's entire life, and it can be soul-crushing. Every day is a struggle, some more than others. Rarely, I will have a pain-free, fatigue-free day and remember what my life was like before pain and fatigue decided my days. You have to do what's best for you, forget perfection (I've learned no one cares about that anyways), and pace yourself to your daily needs. I never dreamed at 52, I would be divorced going on five years and financially just above the poverty level. Definitely one day at a time.
I have nothing to say besides I hear you, and I support you.
I am so sorry to hear this news. I am not on here a lot. I didn't realize this was something so bad. I am very sorry and I can empathize with you. You are beautiful inside and out. God loves you! God will bless you! We are a God fearing household and we will keep you in our prayers.
Lord, please relieve Sinead of her illness and allow her freedom from this chronic illness. Please allow for all of us to continue to support her and be there for her in any way needed. We have all been so blessed knowing Sinead and for all of her helpful tutorials.
Amen
I really appreciate that you posted this video. Please don't delete it because I really think it would help someone in a similar position.
I'm glad to see you back. I have missed your videos.
Aww, Sinead, you are a beautiful soul! I am so proud of you for sharing your story and the relief it will give you many x
I do not have chronic illness, but I have family that do, so I understand. Thank you for sharing your experience. 🙏🙏🙏 You openess helps others realize how important independence and freedom are to an individual's quality of life.
I hear you. I live with an invisible illness. I understand and I get it. You are beautiful and you are real. Keep believing, keep pushing, and listen to your body without guilt. If you are tired your body will tell you. Don’t worry about what others think. This is your battle, your life, and your blessings.
I understand. I have an autoimmune disease, since birth. It took me 40 years to figure it out, and no doctor has diagnosed me. It is hard every day to figure what to eat, what to avoid eating, how much energy do I have to expend today, etc. So, please don't tax yourself. Everyone who cares about you, will be there when you're feeling low. Thank you!
I have a blood cancer myelofibrosis, my platelets are over one million and I have fibrosis in the bone marrow. I take oral chemo pills hydroxyurea and now my disease progressed in Myelodysplastic syndrome/MPN. I had a Thymoma Tumor in the thymus glad, had a Neuroendocrine Carcinoid Tumor in my Appendix, both were malignant cancers, I have grade three arthritis and I look great. I do not look sick so some people don't get it. I have my medical file that shows everything I have, so I'm not crazy. Then I get the same reaction, you don't look sick, they have no idea how many hours I was putting on my makeup in severe pain. I keep going forward. Thank you for sharing your story! Stacey
OMG I have hEDS, pots and Ibs due to EDS as well as dysautonomia and Erythromelalgia so I really get it, sometimes I feel like I am no longer the person I used to be. I also get that feeling of wanting to run away. Hang in there, we can’t lose hope that things may get better
I support you a lot! I also have a chronicle illness and two days before it was crisis… I could not walk 😭 in such moments you realise that going by yourself in supermarket is a happiness. Wish you all the best and everyone take care of yourself!:)
hi sinead i missed u. I was very happy to get a notification that you had upload i never knew u are ill. Alot of ppl cant see my illnesses so they dont know im in extreme pain 6 days a week mostly. i see it was a few days since u uploaded but when im really ill i dont look at my phone or laptop. i do be so sick i dont care about those things and the pain is off the charts. im glad we cud share something very important about eachotherand all the medication is just a reminder of how u couldnt live with the body u have u need all those meds and still with those the illnesses or pain never goes and its for life. its totally ok to cry knowing you have to fight for the rest of yur life just to feel ok for 1 day. proud of you for coming back Xxx
I cherish my good days. Thanks so much for sharing. We are not alone
Im so sorry! I hope you have more better days than hard ones. I am glad to see you!!! But if you need a break, then you do whats best for you. 💕
It’s so okay to be upset sweetheart, I’m so glad you’re sharing your story and I relate. Living in chronic pain since 2007 , after a horrible cervical spinal fusion that lead to nerve damage, cervical arthritis, DDD, more herniated disc’s above my plate and possibly below ( seeing a neurosurgeon after I get an X-ray & MRI for the 100000 time & I’m so scared bc of 1st surgery , but I literally can’t use my right arm bc the pain is radiating from my neck , shoulders down my arm into hands) I have fibromyalgia, ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome , stomach issues, sleep issues, generalized anxiety disorder and depression + every single joint has arthritis. My whole entire body hurts so damn bad and I’m laying in bed crying with you bc I’m in that flare right now & I get it! I never leave this house , I can’t work , my dreams can’t come true rn and I know how it feels to look put together…I mean my God you’re just so gorgeous, but I know you feel so awful on the inside & that’s almost worst bc no one can see , maybe the ones closest to you can see the pain in your eyes or see you maybe not be able to get out of bed. It’s hard! Oh and the worst part for me besides not being able to do what I love ,but the judgment from the people I cared about for not working & it kills me to that they think I want this life of constantly going to doctors and specialists from the age of 26 - 42!? Living in 24/7 pain….do they really think that I don’t want to make my handmade candles, whipped body butter, whipped body scrubs , lip balm , bath salts and diaper rash cream plus more.. and on top of that watching huge companies do what I was doing back in 2010-2012. Making all natural, organic ingredient products is a passion of mine and my stuff works. I’ve spent countless months doing my research all to not be able to do it anymore and get talked about behind my back bc I can’t physically work anymore. It’s so frustrating! So sweetheart videos like yours helps know I’m not alone. Thanks for sharing and sorry for my little rant.
I couldn’t agree more with you Sinead. It is so tough specially when fighting an invisible illness .. I don’t have chronic illness but I could relate with your difficulties so much.. I’ve been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis since 9years n I’m still fighting.. I hv had my ups n downs.. but it’s so difficult to even complete an normal everyday routine.. some days are good , some are bad.. but however we fight with it.. it doesn’t come to my face but every action is so difficult.. I too feel depressed on some days when I can’t shoot or do any work n then seeing my frnds being updated daily on social media.. n achieving their goals as easily anyone should.. But on a serious note, thank you so much Sinead.. it feels so good and warming to see this particular post seeing that someone out there is there who feels the pain.. And whatever it may be .. I pray you have a speedy recovery and will always be waiting for your next video whatever it may be. Take care n Love you always #MyFaveTH-camr ❤️
It's been a year I found your channel. Love your soft spoken words while tutoring. I didn't know you are going through challenges as I have found out based on the comments here. I really did miss you for a while and was wondering if all was well. As a follower I support whatever decision you make. Don't delete your channel and much love ❤
Thank you Fran, I appreciate it so much ❤️ You are so lovely, means so much to me to have your support!
Hello Sinead, it’s nice to see your face again.illnesses suck. I hope today is a good day for you, I feel for you and your struggles. I too suffer with an illness that affects my balance, have yet to be diagnosed with any certainty. I use a walker now and it sucks. I do appreciate the small things in life but to be able to go for a walk would be great. Stay strong girl and to everyone that is dealing with any issue. One day at a time.☀️
Thanks so much 🙏 I always have my eye out for you. Love
💛💛💛 it is so hard to have an invisible illness. It does really really suck . It is absolutely not silly or selfish to be upset. Other people's suffering does not negate our own. You don't have to feel shame or guilt for suffering in a crappy situation, even if other people have it "worse."
I totally get the invisible thing. I have hEDS and I had to start using a mobility aid at work. It was so hard, but it helped so much. It's a weird feeling.
Chronic illness do suck thank you for sharing I can't imagine not been able to work it's hard your stronger than you think thank you for sharing sending you lots of prays
Thank you for speaking about this. I have very similar symptoms to you and have been trying to get a diagnosis for 3 years. People don't realise how debilitating it is.
Thank you for sharing your story.
All I can say that you are a HERO... stay who you are and be who you want... it's your life your moments live them the way you feel... what ever you feel... it's OK
I soooo want to give you a hug 🤗 I have fibromyalgia and people call me lazy and when I am tired they don’t get. Keep doing a great job.
You are super brave...respect and hugs from the other end of the world, Hungary😊 love your videos, however not checking on all the time TH-cam, so do not really know who is who... this surprised me. We healthy ppl, never think that this is a gift, that we are ok. Take care, keep on being happy as much as you can 😊 xxx
From another person with multiple chronic invisible illnesses, thank you so much. Thank you for using your platform, for being brave and vulnerable, yet vocal. I appreciate your heart Sinead.
We do care!!! And you have been sorely missed!!!
Thanks to your tutorials I learnd to do my make up ❤ I hope we can have you back❤
I hope so too my friend, that's so lovely to hear I really appreciate it! ❤️
You’ve articulated what it’s like living with an invisible illness and the mental and emotional toll it takes on. I too have an invisible illness and I felt every word and every tear in your eye. It’s lovely to see you and will happily watch your videos as when or if you feel like posting them.
I am sorry for your illness. Thank you for your honesty. You are so brave. I will pray for you. I hope you get better soon. All my love to you.
So glad to see your beautiful face again! Thank you for sharing! Stay strong, we love you!♥️
I have vascular EDS and lost my sister to an aortic rupture just over a week ago at age 32. Unfortunately, I very much understand what having an invisible illness is like… lean on those around you for love & support. Hugs. 💜
I am so sorry to hear that, I can only imagine how difficult this is for you and your family, and I am sure it is flaring you your own illness, I hope you have support, sending you love and you will be in my thoughts ❤️❤️
I am so sorry Danielle for your loss.
I am so proud of you for posting this video and not taking it down. I know the struggles of an invisible disease and even started my own channel this week to get more out there for people to understand. You are strong and beautiful never feel ashamed and keep standing up and being strong.
Like many here I also suffer from an invisible illness. I’ve had it for over a decade now, & thought I’d learnt how to deal with it. But recently I’ve had a massive flare up, worse than ever before, & I had to change to part time work. It’s been one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever made, & I am so frustrated at my body! I tell myself every day that it’s giving my body what it needs to heal, & is the best decision… but it doesn’t really make it any easier right now!!! So my heart is very much with you, & I appreciate you so very much for making this video, & not keeping it private!!!!
I am so sorry to hear that you are going through this illness, I hope there will be a lot more better days. Recently I have learned a bit about another type of invisible illness, affecting my sister after her second doze of Covid vaccine, and it has been a nightmare ever since. The strain it has on ones mental health is unbelievable. Praying for you to get better each day.
Just sending you lots of love. It sucks to have an invisible (chronic) illness. Thanks for this video.. We've missed you but will be here when you're ready to be back!
Oh bless you lovely totally get you and understand. I have suffered for years from pain and stuff. Was diagnosed with vulvodynia at 28 I have a TH-cam channel for anyone who wants to hear my story. It sucks big time sending you love ❤ xx
@ Nadja Tansey-Pettitt I’m sorry to hear that. I have Interstitial Cystitis & everything that goes alone with it. I have suffered my whole life with this crap. Pelvic / Bladder / & Vag pain has been my life with no days off. I cuss it every day!
@@IKrsty oh you poor thing all your life!! Wow so have you tried all sorts of things to help it? I went down all sorts of avenues..... doctors don't really understand it and just want to pump you with loads of horrible tablets which never did anything really 😕
Welcome back and thanks for your words🙏 I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and arthritis (in my whole body) in 2018 and I have chronic pain and fatigue 24/7. I’m a Psychologist and even when I say to my patients is ok to not be okay, sometimes I cry because I feel like nobody understands my pain. Blessings!
You are not alone and pain is terrible. It’s okay to not be okay and we are here. I felt it when you said your body is failing you because I definitely feel that at moments. You are strong even when no one is seeing it
Hello! I missed you. Thank you so much for the courage of sharing!!!! 💗💗💗💗💗🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼
Thank you for sharing what you're going through. Sending you warmest healing hugs. 🤗
I have the exact same invisible illnesses as you, Expect (pots) Thank you for this video, sending you lots of love i know how hard some days can be!
You were one of the first channels I have ever subscribed to. Even if I wasn't that much into makeup, I found a lot of comfort just watching these videos. Whatever you do, we'll be here to support you all the way! ❤
💜Soft Hugs💚
I completely understand what you are going through. I have Fibromyalgia, borderline personality disorder, anxiety disorders, ptsd, agoraphobia, Lyme disease, chronic fatigue, chronic migraines and more. Seems every time I think I am getting better something new happens. I live in pain mentally and physically. And doctors can't do anything to help me. I fight cause giving up it's not in my heart. I am here if you for you. Your not alone. And yes finding someone who understands is awesome. Talking to people who understand is freeing. God bless you
Hello #MyFaveTH-camr I’m seeing you since almost 8years now.. N I’m here to support you in every decision you make. Whatever it may be.. Live your life to the fullest and thanks for always being my mentor. I love you with all my heart and I’ll support you always ❤️
Oh gosh you are too kind! Thank you so much, I appreciate it so much ❤️
You helped me a lot with this video, I don't feel alone right now. I know that many people feel the same pain as me. 🙏🏻❤️
I totally relate to you I suffer from few chronic illnesses Thanks for sharing & wish you health & happiness 🙏❤️
I will miss your videos and tutorials, Sinead, but your health and happiness matter more. We’re here to support you in whatever way you need.
Hey I am from an island in india...and I learnt doing makeup from ur channel...I am one of ur subscribers...urs is the most sober, natural and proper makeup .... instead of the usual instagrammers 'over makeup' ......we pray for ur recovery...n Insha Allah u will surely recover!! But please do not delete ur channel as it is very educational!
Thank you, so glad you enjoy them, don't worry they aren't going anywhere, still gonna keep uploading and keep my older videos too, thank you for the support, I appreciate it so much ❤️
Sinead I too live with an invisible illness and had to give up work over a year ago. I completely feel for you and understand what you are going thru. You're amazing xxx
I’ve missed you tremendously. I too have a chronic illness and your videos made me feel not so alone. I know just me saying that is a heavy responsibility to lay at your feet, that was not my intention. I just want you to know you are not alone. There are so many of us feeling exactly like you feel and who deal with all the same questions we ask ourselves. I’m so so thrilled you are back. I’ve perhaps less than a handful of times, left a comment, but I wanted you to know there are so so many of us s we ho adore you and who feel like you’re family and who are right here with you, struggling but surviving. Thank you for coming back. 💕💕💕💕💕
I missed you so much.
I was diagnosed with diabetes two years ago. I felt just the way you do. I found peace and courage in Jesus. Try Jesus my dear sis and his blood with see you through. Praying for you!
Reaching through this comment to hug you.. you reminded me of something I told my husband early 2016 after multiple hospitalizations and misdiagnosis after misdiagnosis “ honey I think I might die soon” .. I had lost all hope. Everyone’s response to me losing all functions was.. you look fine get a grip. My husband moved me to the mountains to find peace and being here I found an amazing rheumatologist. He asked me to try a drug that has been successful in the UK called LDN .. it’s primarily for MS but please just look into it. My entire life was given back to me. Missed you .. I’ve been a long time follower .. one day at a time girl.. one hour at a time if need be. Xo
I’m so glad you’re ok, that’s what matters most, you’re one of the best TH-cam channels, work at your own pase. I always look forward to your videos 😊. You’re not invisible, you’re an amazing person, don’t forget that. 💖💖
You are too lovely, thank you for the kind words, you are such a lovely kind person thank you for the support and taking the time to comment ❤️❤️
Hang in there. Just do what you can when or if you can. You’re terrific just the way you are.
I have chronic and invisible illnesses too. It's so hard. I haven't worked in a long time. I can't even shower by myself. It is hard. I had to grieve it, and I did and still do honestly. Do what you need to do. You do what you need to do. I so get it. Hugs
I am thankful that you did not delete this video and I was able to watch it. I see your struggle and I feel your pain. It is a constant battle with ups and downs. You are not alone. We'll be here for you 🙌💛
Thank you so much for sharing! I have an invisible illness too (Scleroderma) and everything you said resonated with me. Thank you again for sharing! ❤️
You are so right. It really sucks. I understand the struggle with an invisible illness and the disappointment that comes with it. We just keeping doing the best we can. Thank you for being so honest with your story. ❤️
Your so sweet and it does suck!! First it’s so nice to see your beautiful face. Second I know what your feeling like lonely and invisible, I also suffer from illness that can’t be seen and I try so very very hard to hide because I’m embarrassed and think I’m not normal people will judge me make fun of me or think it’s all in my head or pretending.. I have severe mental illness, of course I am on medications but they don’t always do the job for me… This just surfaced and hit me hard after my third child in my 40’s and thinking back as a kid and teen I was suffering back then too but not diagnosed nor as extreme. I can’t do the things I once loved I try and have good days but more bad days. I worked since I was a teen and as an adult had a fantastic career, not any more. I could go on and on but know sweet girl you are soooo not alone, we are brave and we get so excited on the good days and what we accomplished on that good day or week, such simple things like errands or a drive to the grocery store and making it through, even cooking a wonderful meals for my family.. if that makes sense .. I’m a makeup lover and wore makeup all the time, not so much now. Anyway thank you and bless your heart for sharing. I was wondering where you went off too. Much love and God Bless. Xoxox’s
Thank you for sharing this video 💗 I have been feeling really low recently with my own invisible illness. I had to give up work a couple of years ago due to it, but have recently tried going back to just a part time job but it's taking more out of than I thought it would. I will keep pushing on though because I love the job. Sending you a big hug, I totally hear you and understand exactly how you are feeling. Hope you reach a better spell soon 😘
I'm so sorry to hear what you've been going through. My mum has fibromyalgia that was brought on by a car accident, caused by the other person not looking before pulling out. It must have been so difficult for her to accept that she's gone from being very independent to struggling to carry a shopping bag or walk for 10 minutes without being in a lot of pain. It does absolutely suck but she tries to get on with it and stay positive, difficult but she says being negative isn't going to help her. I really admire people who try their best to carry on with a chronic illness, takes a lot of mental strength x
Other people's hard *does not* invalidate your hard. You get to be upset, and no one's opinion should make you feel otherwise. It took me a really long time to learn that.
Thank you for sharing this. I have so much sympathy for you. My dad was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition recently. I hope you find answers
Thanks for this video. Be well.
Awwww sending you so much love and warmth 💖💖💖🌸💜🌸💜🌸💜 I have followed you for several years and you are sooo amazing and so so special ✨🌟💛🌟 xxxxxxx
Thank you for sharing this. The more you share, the more you break through it. You are helping those who have it. Or giving strength to those who have a illness that is oppressing.
Chronic invisible illness is way too often misunderstood. Thank you for sharing what you are going through. The "not alone" is deeply felt. Take good care of you ❤
Don't delete this video. Post as much as u can bc people like me didn't know about this illness and this helps. You are helping us bc maybe we might have the symptoms and don't even know it. Tell us about how it started for example. I follow u for a long time like a long time and I just found out today with this video why u have been gone from social media and don't blame u I can't tell how hard this is for u but don't take a break keep fighting girl. Be strong its sounds easy to say for me maybe but seeing u today made me realize how lucky I am. Love always! 😘
I haven't visited any makeup channel since you left. Glad you are back, you taught me how to apply eye liner and your videos brightened up my darkest days.
So much love for you Sinead ❤ Thinking of you and praying for you. You are allowed to feel all of these feelings because it does suck!
I get how your feeling. I have a chronic illness and I actually don't leave my house unless it's a doctor's appointment. No one really gets why I can't go places or go out. But you are not alone at all. Everything I do takes such effort. My immediate family understands but it's still hard when I can't even visit my daughter. Stay strong but know you are not alone.
I just found your channel today and I wish you the best. You are so brave to both face this without giving up and to share your deepest privacy with us out here. I look forward to viewing your older material and your new videos whenever I find them. Sail on, brave girl.
Chronic illness sufferer here 😔 it started becoming noticeable in 2019.. it's endometriosis and it affects every aspect of my life! So painful physically, mentally and emotionally.. I won't get into it all but I sometimes forget that it's not just me that wants to isolate or that gets fed up with living with a chronic illness. I miss being independent so much. The amount of pressure this has put on my fiance and even my friendships is tough, when I dress up, make the effort ppl are like, oh your doing better are your fixed now🙈🙈🙄 Nobody gets it unless they live it.. I can't work since 2019 and can't drive a whole lot either or do my grocery shopping that much. I would love a local chronic support group, it would help for when it gets real tough... Social media is good for this sometimes but it's not the same as face to face interactions.. I feel your pain in all those areas you mention here but I also see your strength! Thank you for pushing through and making this video, I needed to feel seen today and you've done that for me.. thank you so so much. 💖
I totally relate. I work so hard to try and look after myself. Today I woke up feeling drained and weepy and part of me felt resentful because like you say, sometimes the things that help don’t help on a random day. This morning I was feeling similar to what you described. Thank you for uploading this.
I hope you'll always prioritize yourself and do what is best for you. I am going through a chronic, intermittent condition and everything you said, it all resonates with me. I'm okay half the time, and the other half of the time I don't have the physical or emotional energy to get out of bed. So many of us are right there with you and support you 100%. Please never feel guilty for having to take time for yourself! Also your makeup is looking so glamorous.
I admire you so much! You have so much strength and poise. You are fabulous
I am sorry for what happened. I have been a supporter of your channel for a long time from the Philippines. Thank you for being so honest on this video. Will pray for your healing and well being.
Your a strong person. I have FND, I'm not in pain but people say that I'm not sick but I am. And can't do what I want and am afriad of living. So I understand how you feel. Keep fighting!
Sufferer of Fibromyalgia, JHS, IBS and PCOS here. I feel ya hun. It's rotten dealing with these things on a daily basis.
Doll, I want you to know we all stand by you. I appreciate you. You were one of the first that I subscribed to. Luv ya girl.
Praying for you 🙏🏻
Just know that is okay not to be okay.
I too have an invisible illness and I feel for your struggles. I love your channel and have missed you. I will appreciate whatever and whenever you post. If you can’t post I support you as well

I just came across your channel today and have watched at least six videos so far. Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge with the world about makeup. I really appreciate your candor. As you journey through life, please know that you are not invisible because God sees you and knows you intimately. I love seeing bravery in action and you my dear are brave. May you continue to live life and find joy in the simple things like family and friends. Work when you can, it's okay. Have a beautiful and blessed life!
Thank you for such an encouraging video and not taking things for granted! Thank you for sharing! 🙏😇
Sinead. So happy to see you filming and sharing your story. It helps to talk about and share your struggles. I wish you all the best. Prayers and hugs
I am glad to see a new post from you. Take care of yourself. Social media will most certainly wait. I was diagnosed with a chronic illness in 2020 (adding insult to an already horrible year). It is draining. My issue is not visible so people do not realize how challenging life can be. You are not alone. Take it moment by moment. Relish in the good days. susie in the tundra
