I do not usually like vlogs
They seem to drag
But yours are *chefs kiss*
You move them at the perfect speed with little distraction breaks for the ADHD brain
Little laugh breaks but also feels like an authentic hang out
So good
Oh this is SUCH a compliment!!!! Thank you for sharing this with me. I’m trying to find the right balance between sharing all the tangents my mind takes in real-time when filming and not getting so distracted it’s a pain to watch 😂 so this feedback means a lot to me! Thank you!!
COMPLETELY agree.
this is exactly right.
it's the perfect balance.
@@elyse_myers not to be all parasocially weirdo about this, but you really are one of my favorite well-known presences, IN THIS W O R L D.
i feel like i'm having a conversation, like with a person. and even though you can't hear me vocally, i know you DO, you do hear me.
For me, the snow makes me feel comfortable, like it's a safety blanket. Also, TRY not to think too long about how you feel. This is super hard for me, but JUST GO WITH IT! You are HILARIOUS, please keep doing what you're doing AS LONG as it's making YOU happy!❤
I mean this in the most normal way. Elyse, i will follow you to any platform. I see so much of myself in you and you make me feel less poo about myself.
She off Instagram now. They followed her.
Who is "they"? I missed something and I'm sad.
@@cassaraptor93
I was just thinking this exact same thing.
The reason the interviewee can answer so quickly on the real Vogue 73 questions is that they get the questions in advance. You did great.
Also, they definitely rehearse a million times.
And they might edit out the silent time when it occurs, to make it shorter.
I think that one park bench is really happy to be a space away from the others where people who need a moment to themselves can retreat to and still have somewhere to sit. If I was seeking a moment of peace, I would be so grateful for that bench. 🥰
Yes! This was very similar to the thought I had… Well, it was more like a feeling. My feeling as an INFJ introvert was, “peace, I can be part of the people scene, but not too peopley.”
Same thought!!!
I've been struggling so much to clean my room these past weeks. I've been putting you in the background to keep me motivated and feel leess alone. And now you uploaded! Thank you Elyse! 💙
Omg this makes me so happy!!! I have a few comfort TH-camrs I follow (one being Emma Chamberlain) who I watch in the background as I do things that feel impossible to do. It makes my heart so happy that my content does that for you!
Not just saying this to chime in but I do the same. It's so comforting to listen to a voice in the background when I have to do unappealing tasks. Love & comfort to you both!!
@@elyse_myers I didn't expect my eyes to get watery, thank you so much for replying. You've been the sunray on dark days. I hope you get all the snow you're heart desires!!!
@@lulaslabyrinth13 yes, it's like night and day, crazy how much of a difference someone can make. Wishing you all the comfort as well!!
Wow, just wow, we are so much alike it's like you gave me permission to feel sane. The first snowflake I see I am a completely different person, sóoooooo happy and lots of big smiles. Hiking or just walking in the snow makes me cry, is that crazy? I have the exact same wardrobe. If I know we are going to church, I have immediate anxiety all day Saturday in regards to what I'm going to wear. Since I wear joggers and black shorts all the time, I never know how my jeans are going to fit. I know it doesn't matter one bit but I still feel anxious. Christmas is so anxious for me, I have to buy many gifts, and I have no idea what to buy them. I love giving gifts but it has to be a gift I know they wanted and will use. I've finally gotten my family to make Amazon wishlists for every member of their family, except my daughter has only done this half way and she has three daughters. I have to be completely done with Christmas shopping and wrapping by mid October. You make my heart so happy. You're beautiful and a gift to our universe. I know you can do stand up. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
WE LOVE YOU ELYSE! You did not deserve to be treated like you were on insta and tiktok. I hope you come back but if you do not please know you are loved.

Loved reading this!!
Being able to read people quickly is usually a learned trauma response... in order to feel safe, we had to be able to know the status of the people around us.
1. This feels like hanging out with my best friend, enjoying a good snow day and filling out a 20 questions quiz from middle school that I would share in Facebook notes.
2. The real reason we love Chicago is Pizza, hotdogs and it’s cold.
3. PrinCESS of GenOvea 👸🏻 😍
Love that Jonas understands your needs he talks to her for you. Glad you found that safe feeling
It’s been the best thing for our fam!!
Elyse, I came to your page because I saw that you were basically bullied off of Tiktok. I know you probably won't see this, but I want to say that you're an amazing content creator who has helped so many people with your videos. You're also so talented and kind. I'm sorry that people have been giving you a rough time, especially during a difficult time in your life.
You don't deserve to be treated the way you have been, regardless of your stance on controversial world issues or the choice you make regarding whether you want to speak on them or not. Nobody has the right to your personal opinions, and most of us appreciate the things you have shared with us.
Thank you for being who you are and please take as much time as you need from Tiktok. Take care of yourself! ❤️
This comment means so much to me, I am so grateful you took the time to write and post this here. I’m doing my best to protect me and my family and it might not make sense to everyone all the time but I have to keep my mental health safe so I can stick around for my boys as long as I possibly can. Stepping back from a place I don’t feel safe was hard but necessary and I’m just trying to figure out where to go from here! ❤
@@elyse_myers I'm glad that you're doing what's best for yourself and your family! I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision to make, but it sounds like it was necessary for you. As long as it makes sense to you, it doesn't matter if other people understand it. I scrolled though a bunch of these comments and was happy to see that people have been very kind to you here! Wishing you the very best!
Stance on controversial issues?
@@ambriaashley3383 Don't be that person. Do better.
I am so grateful that you have come here to TH-cam , I do not use TikTok and never would have found you. 🙏 ❤
Apparently my son has hijacked my TH-cam, so he has changed my username 🤣. I just came here to say you are loved and I’m sorry you have been bullied. You’re the most relatable, real influencer out there and there is an army of us out there who will defend you!!
It's so amazing that you said you were looking up hotels to escape your life for 24 hours. I literally did this when i was 20, living in a raver warehouse SITUATION in SF. The life was just TOO much sometimes. So I'd just leave to a cheap motel for a night of sleeping and watching tv with zero other people around.
Very mentally healing.
The joy on your face when you realize you can just ask yourself the questions was what I needed today. Thank you for vulnerably sharing your joy and excitement. ❤
Elyse I’m so sorry that the world is the way it is. You are a light that so many cherish. But you are also a human being with feelings and doing what is best for you and your family IS above all most important. Just know in your break that you are loved and cherished and will be missed by so many people and you have touched the hearts of so many and helped me feel like who I am is okay and I don’t have to be perfect. I love you even if I don’t know you personally! You are a gem in this world and I will always appreciate you even if you never come back to social media. And you deserve to have that choice. You are more important than anything.❤️❤️❤️

We have the opposite weather personality. The winter brings me suffering, while sun, warmth and light literally make me feel like myself again and bring pure joy.
I have mine the same way Elyse is. I'm so happy in snow ❄️ and stuck inside when it's summer. The sun & I don't get along well.
@@chelseabobet4591same! The heat and sun make me sooo depressed. (Although to be fair I do have medical issues that are made worse by getting hot but still.) I’m a winter fan through and through! Spring and summer are when I’m locked inside with the blinds drawn and avoiding life lol
@Daymickey
I couldn't agree more
I like you a lot, I think we would be friends I also have a uniform and wear my clothes like that except I wear many different types of shoes but I also have the fun clothes but they just live in my closet having fun together.
I didn’t get diagnosed with ADHD until I was 35 and I didn’t realize it until I was watching women with ADHD my age and I like had to have a full conversation with myself and my therapist it changed my whole lookout on life. You were one of the women who inspired me to get tested.
and WE do as well lol. I hate the sun, any day without it brings me immense joy as someone who grew up in the desert lol. give me rain and/or snow ANY day XD
“I’m gunna change back into my sweatshirt because I feel safer wearing it.”
I don’t know why this hit me so hard. I felt that in my soul. It’s made me emotional just you saying that out loud and knowing I’m not the only one that has that weird thing. You’re the best.
I so absolutely relate to the “run to a hotel for 24 hours” to escape all responsibilities. That is so much healthier than self harm actions!🌹
Greta Gerwig‘s 73 questions is my absolute favorite because she’s so rambly and terrible at giving short answers just like I am but yours comes incredibly close and coming from me and my current hyperfixations that is the highest compliment I could give you. I love the recent long form content!
I never comment (because of anxiety), but I resonate so much with a lot of the things Elyse talks about. I really never thought about doing things while having a panic attack! I needed to hear that!
The decision making thing is so relatable to me too, and my favorite weather is when it’s cloudy or rainy (similar to the snow thing). So many other things she mentions in other videos too.
Thank you so much for being here and for commenting!!! This made my day!!!! 🥹♥️
@@elyse_myers It means so much that you would reply! ❤ Your videos often make my day!
Your brokenness and my brokenness (or woundedness?), are so similar, it makes me want to hold you in my hands like a baby bird to protect you. Your courage & honesty invite others to breathe more freely, unhunch their shoulders, loosen the tightness in their chests. I'm really grateful you exist & I loved hearing what you chose to share of yourself 💛
This is LITERALLY THE BEST 73 Questions that I have EVER heard! You inspire me so much! I NEVER miss a video. I LOVE the longer form! ❤❤
Yesss...same
I never make comments, but I wanted to say this. I have been going through a bipolar depression for over 3 months. It's embarrassing but I haven't washed or blowdried my hair in that time. Watching you stop and say "wait why am I so anxious right now" really helped me step back and deal with why i didn't want to take a shower. (my hair is like past my butt for the same reasons, so washing and blowdrying takes time I can't muster myself to make) Thank you for being vulnerable in front of so many people. That must be terrifying, but just know that some random lady in Texas really needed to hear what you had to say.
i know you posted this a few months ago but i’m currently experiencing something similar so i was scrolling the comments 😅 i hope you are feeling better now and just know you are not alone.

I love your long form content! I'm so proud of you for recognizing that your brain was trying to sabotage you and trying not to let it.
Elyse, I swear you are my sister from another mother. When I hear you talk about all these seemingly random things (which these were obviously answers to "Vogue" questions), I find myself nodding vigorously and saying YES!! out loud, because I'd answer the exact same thing to about 95% of them! So much of your "quirks" are shared by other AuDHDr's like me, and I'm learning that my weirdnesses are just part of my unique flavor of autism. It's just so validating when I hear you mention things that I've always thought "gee, why do I have this weird quirk? I hope nobody finds out because they'd think I'm really strange..." and now I know it's common for neurodivergents. Embrace the quirks! ❤ Come to Colorado and we'll rejoice in snow and coffee and eating the same thing every day while only having conversations while eating because eye contact freaks me out, too. 😊

My millennial brain actually loves this long form of content creating vs tik tok or insta. Very chill like catching up with a friend, no pressure and the cinematography is chef's kiss.
The amount of joy this brings me is insane 😂❤ Love you elyse
i spent an hour and 20 mins watching this vid bc i kept pausing and being kinda blown away by you as a person: your responses, your reactions to things, your absolute willingness to show your person-ness on camera.
you are my favorite.
I really love your personality. You have some traits I notice in myself and some that I wish I had. You talk about so many things you dont hear anywhere else but in a way that brings awareness, compassion, and acceptance. You're the best.
i love the parts where YOU responded to and interacted with YOU. That sort of interaction is so Elyse and we are all here for it. Love that format
I don’t like sunny days. Rain is IT! So, yeah, totally legit!! Love and appreciate how you talk openly about anxiety. Thanks for helping people know we don’t have to be ashamed of the condition!
Just popped in to say that I absolutely love your vlogs!!! All of them have become kind of like a comfort show for me. Always here to listen to you talk about anything and spend time with you
Snow makes the cold weather make sense and it throws around so much white fluff it voids the gray and muddy everywhere.
You're so relatable. You're not alone.
I don’t often come to YT, but I will for you, Elyse. You are an amazing mom, wife, and human🫶🏻
I love these longer videos. You are so darn relatable and watching your longer content makes me feel less alone. ♡
Hi Elyse!
I would like to apply to be your Long Distance Best Friend 😅
I’ve been following your journey for a long time but have just recently found you on TH-cam. Watching your Vogue questions made me realize just how much we have in common! So below I have included reasons for why I think I’d be a good fit for the position.
Special Skills and Abilities:
-All the anxiety
- No friends (hence this message)
-Struggle with decision making
-Very Sarcastic
-Non Confrontational
-Impatient
Other Applicable Information:
-New Girl is my all time favorite show
-Love building Lego plants
-have a film camera you could teach me how to use
-moved away from home to follow a boy
-MUCH prefer binging a season over watching a movie
-Hate low rise jeans
As you can see I’m highly qualified for the job.Have your people contact my people if you’d like to set up an interview.
In all seriousness, Keep being you 🖤
Thanks for great laugh, your qualifications would definitely work for me too!
So, in total Elyse fashion, i completely failed to fully read the title, and for the first two minutes of rhe video I lept thinking "Man, i cant believe Vogue actually went to Elyse's house! She's getting so famous!" 😅🤦♀️ This was way better than any actual Vogue video. Love you, Elyse!
I know that you’re taking a break from socials which I completely respect! I just wanted to reach out as someone who has been following you for probably 2/3 years. Your content has been so impactful in the best way possible on my life. I wanted to thank you for the positivity you continue to spread and the love that you try to show. I know you and your family are going through an extremely difficult time, I’m so sorry for the hate and harassment you were continually receiving, especially right now. Please keep your head up and do what’s best for you and your family without any guilt or shame. You are such a light in people’s lives, please don’t forget that my love. 🫶🏼
also! Hearing that you and your husband agreed to a family assistant together makes me happy and encourages me to think that I will be with someone who will do what it takes to support me as I am. 😊
You said “Converse” but I heard “Congress” and I wondered why you were so fascinated with it 🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahaha no definitely converse 😂
“I was just really responsible for the people around me’s emotions as a child”. That. That hit home.
I can relate to you so closely, I feel like we're best friends (if having friends was something I wanted, which I don't because then it means I have to go out and do stuff with them). I am 54, discovered a couple of years ago that I am autistic (I also have ADHD), but I always do what your therapist told you and I push through my fears. I have accomplished so much by doing this and as a result I am so happy and content in my little hermit life. I moved to New Zealand from the US, even! Don't worry about the things that scare you and give you anxiety. That is a part of what makes you you and despite them, you can live an incredible life. You'll look back and be so proud of what you have accomplished. Oh, and also, my son's name is Oliver. ❤
"Coffee. Because it helps me poop." I couldn't love you more Elyse 😂❤
Hey! I'm so sorry about all the harassment you have been getting on TikTok/Insta. ❤ We're all rooting for you and your new baby. Wishing you all the best and lots of love
I found you on TikTok one day and love how authentic you are. I dont go on TikTok much now, but I started watching TH-cam monthly book wrap ups and you came as a recommended video to watch!
