I see so many kind comments thanking Des for her hard work on Bookmas, and she did amazing!! But all I can think is how I hate seeing her stressing herself so much and not getting enough sleep :( Des, please take care of yourself🙏🏻 As a viewer, I personally care more about your well-being than the amount of videos you produce (even though they are all amazing and you do an incredible job!) Remember you get to set your own schedule and you don’t have to do all-nighters or produce as many videos if it means losing sleep and multiplying your stress! I say all of this from love and just want the best for you and want you to avoid burn out💗 (I know I probably just sounded like a mom🤓)
You’re so real for this. I’m sorry you had to go through so much stress during Bookmas but we appreciate all of your hard work!! Your Bookmas was my favorite to watch this year!🫶
From a fellow anxiety girly who used to be debilitated by it, you truly have to take care of yourself. Now that bookmas is done, please take some time for yourself off of filming/editing. It hurts my heart to hear you constantly sick, tired, and anxious because of booktube. Yes this is your job, but you have to give yourself grace! Please don’t feel like you need to finish out December doing vlogs. We all want what’s best for you and I can tell you really need a physical and mental break ❤️❤️❤️ love you so much, please take care of yourself before taking care of us 💔
The fact that some people think TH-cam isn’t a job or content creators don’t do a lot of work, this is proof! Literally pulling an all nighter to read multiple books and edit a video, then dealing with a period, anxiety and being sick and still knocking out the long to do list. I’ll say it again- you’re amazing! Just wow
It was tough for this mom to watch you power through. I wanted to send you straight to bed to watch romcoms and sleep until you felt better. I hope that now that bookmas is done you are taking a well deserved and much needed break. We aren’t going anywhere. We will watch when you are ready to post.
This video is a whirlwind. I feel like I’m the same way with like biting off way more than I can chew and then setting unrealistic goals for accomplishing everything and then being disappointed in myself when I can’t complete the literal impossible. You are amazing. Get some rest and I hope you feel better soon
Please get some rest and take some days off if you need it❤️ bookmas was amazing, thank you for all of your hard work! I also suffer from bad anxiety and your videos help me so much. Love you bestie Des! 🫶🏻
i would love to see you do a “random # generator picks my books to buy”so you have to count that number down the isles of books in that store until you land on the one it generated! ❤️❤️
U DID SUCH AN AMAZING JOB WITH BOOKMAS OMG‼️ I KNOW A LOT OF WORK GOES INTO IT AND WE ALL APPRECIATE YOU SM! ILY AND I CANT WAIT FOR VLOGMAS(BUT DONT FEEL PRESSURED TO DO IT!) 🫶🫶🫶🫶
Des you put yourself through so much stress. :( Can‘t imagine the anxiety level. Don’t do this to yourself just to make us happy. Enjoy December and Christmas without a constant high stress level. ❤
You work so hard to get things done and I'm so proud. I am someone who does things last minute so seeing u face ur anxiety and sickness to get things done make me want to push myself to get stuff that I need to done myself!! If ur still sick I hope you feel better and that I'm sorry u suffer so much anxiety recently 😢
Thank you for all of the effort that you put into these videos! As much as I love all of the content, it seems like we’d all rather see you take care of yourself first!! It’s so important to get 8-9 hours of sleep every night and take care of your immune health! Don’t destroy yourself trying to get out content, I’m happy with any video whenever you upload!❤
Seeing the amount of effort you've put into all this and all the things you've had to deal with while doing so..i got overwhelmed and stressed just watching. it's absolutely incredible that you managed to pull all this off, thank you so much, bookmas has been so much fun and something to look forward to each day. please try to take a break as soon as you can you deserve that and so much more🩷🩷🩷🩷
thank you for all of the effort and time you spent on bookmas 😭😭 it was genuinely the highlight of my day every day the last few weeks 🫶 pls get some rest and take whatever break you need!!
This genuinely looks so stressful I’m not kidding I would be in that exact mental/physical state you were in. major props des!! 👏🏼 also the final clip at the ice dispenser was too funny of a way to abruptly end it 🤣🤣🤣 ur comedic timing always hits
Destiny, we love you for all the hard work you put into everything you do. PLEASE get some rest, take a break, don’t put so much pressure on yourself. We will still be here ❤
🫡 fr I salute you for soldiering through posting every day while sick and during your period (not to even mention the anxiety). Just thinking abt it makes me anxious. And I also admire the vulnerability, of filming this vlog while stressing, being sick…. LOVE YOUR VIDEOSSS Happy holidays!! ❤️🫡🫡🫡
I also get sick when I don't get sleep and when im super stressed!!! : ( awww your videos were some of my absolute fav to watch during bookmas, I hate how our entertainment was like painfully stressful for you 😭😭 I loved seeing this behind the scenes look!! and i hope you rest LOTTSS now that bookmas is over!!!
Loved your bookmas so much!!! Ever since the reading journal video I’ve been watching your and bestie Sara’s bookmas while making my own 2024 reading journal 🥹🩵
So proud!!! Watched and loved them all. Can’t wait for more vlogs! I know you stress sometimes that we dont want vlog but I literally LIVE for your vlogs. Keep working hard bestie, we appreciate it 💜
Thank you so much for doing bookmas. It was incredible, I loved the videos so much and you did it even though you were sick. It helped me a lot through my current anxiety problems. Thank you❤
Des, I literally love you and you are such a breath of fresh air. You help me so much understand my anxiety and I swear, we are twins 😅😇 you’re an angel thanks for being you 🩷
So grateful for all your hard work you put in for us! Just make sure to take care of yourself and prioritize your mental health and physical health so you don’t get more sick.. we love you girly💖
Thanks for all the hard work Destiny! It was very nice to spend a couple of minutes of those days with u! We appreciate you so much! Kisses from Brasil!
Des, dont get me wrong, I LOVE your youtube channel and love that you want to give us so much amazing content. But, seeing how anxious bookmas made you and feeling overwhelmed hurt my heart :( We love you so much and I dont want you to sacrifice your mental health for the sake of videos. I would watch any video you post, no matter how much content you put out! I just want you to take care of your mental health
I looked forward to your videos every day! You should feel so accomplished for finishing a video every day despite feeling miserable. Please take care of yourself!
Destiny, you are normal with a “normal” range of emotions. It’s expected in any job that you may have stress. And social anxiety is brutal, I know. But go easy on yourself. You’re trying your best! I’m not some guru but try some guided meditation or yoga. I’m a hella lot older than you and have a daughter that is 20 (I’m 38) and feel the need to day everything will be okay. Your videos are great! I have some attention issues, and you always hold my attention. Try not to change in order to cope with stress and anxiety. You’ll find coping mechanisms, trust me. Your personality MORE than carries you through! It does sound like you could do with an outlet though. We can only cope with fight or flight response for so long and this causes cortisol dumps in your body that can cause nausea and that butterfly feeling in your stomach. It’ll also upset your stomach too. Rest! ❤
I am so sorry that bookmas caused you this. I love bookmas but next year do it every other day or as much as you can without any pressure. Get better and take it easy❤
BOOKMAS WAS INCREDIBLE DES- YOU SLAYED IT
SLEIGHED 🦌
