Ross’s reason to becoming a therapist sounds like that one guy that applied for a gaming company, and upon being hired, fixed several bugs for his favorite game, then afterwards turned his two weeks in.
Ya know since this vid has been re-uploaded, MAX how do you feel are you doing ok mentally and physically because we care about you and sometimes in vids we can tell when you aren't at your 100 so tell us how you feel from time to time we want you to be happy so tell me how have you been feeling
@@Mithzan I understand just know that we are always here to support you max, we very much care about you us fans will do our best to give you support and our love whether if ya want it or not❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@Mithzan If you need a mental health break, don't sweat it. If it means that you're able to make content with your absolute best self than I'm willing to wait for a few days. Best luck to you, best luck to the Bois, and especially best luck to Figaro
No because Ross’ Mountain Dew story makes me think. Because every time I tell people I’m upset, tired, or have a headache they immediately suggest to stop drinking caffeine. I’m pretty sure me cutting off coffee won’t solve my problems.
It might help with headaches depending on how often you drink caffeine. My brother used to drink like 4 pepsis a day and would have bad headaches whenever he went without something caffinated.
Caffeine causing headaches, mood swings, and Tiredness is very common. Drinking less or stopping all together will cause you to feel like crap for a bit but thats from withdrawal once it's over you feel better and more normal. Most people who cut it out feel over all healthier and better. But it also depends on your sleep schedule and overall diet on how caffeine will effect you. It won't solve all your problems but it will help.
@@tayamanan this is true! i tried cutting out as much caffeine as i could because i was constantly feeling tired and moody. this was something my therapist suggested to me and it actually helped a lot. cutting out caffeine for the most part has also helped majorly with the feeling of being panicky and jittery, which can just make your anxiety worse. :D !! but !! funfact, caffeine can also have a reverse effect on neurodivergent people !! as someone with ADD (ADHD without the hyperactivity), caffeine always had a reverse effect on me, such as making me very drowsy after drinking coffee, etc. cutting it out has helped a lot with not oversleeping/not sleeping enough, which, makes you feel a lot better. i actually suggest cutting your caffeine intake down if you are in a desperate situation and are trying to get better. you never know if it'll help or not
as someone who’s been in therapy since they were 12, it’s so weird to remember that there’s these stigmas against it. anyway, the most important thing to remember when starting therapy is that there IS good and bad therapists and there’s therapists whose methods just won’t fit you. if someone still doesn’t feel right after a few sessions, it’s best to move on.
My mom is a 911 opperator and so is my sister. The job itself is in a way difficult, holding the hardships of some of the calls, but most of the calls every day are less like how you expect. You get more annoying calls most of the times, from what I hear, and I also get told that the work place itself is harsher than the actual job. But that's just my mom's personal experiences.
Therapy is something that can help everyone, whether you feel like you "need" it or not. If you have mental health issues, they can provide the assistance you need in dealing with it. Or if you don't have any specific issues, it's still healthy to see a therapist. They can help you get a handle on your feelings and just help you handle life in a healthier way as a whole. I'd really recommend giving therapy a shot, even if you have to try a couple different therapists in order to find someone that actually clicks with you.
Oh yeah 100% when I finally started therapy and eventually a depression medication a couple months ago it helped a lot! It completely changed my quality of life and made my anxiety and ocd 100x more manage able
I've had a therapist ghost me(it was virtual/phone therapy).She was nice but only talked to me about gardening for half the time and would always says "well looks like we are out of time"10 mins before we where supposed to be done.
As an art student at a top art college, it a scam. I’m literally only going because I plan on being a professor eventually and will need multiple degrees to do so. Though it’s also worth going for the connections and networking. I had a professor who previously worked on Family Guy who would regularly give our recommendations to big name studios.
Yea I hold the same view, college for arts are usually for making connections and networking rather than learning. They usually put u in a box of tradition rather than letting u be creative
I don't know how much it'll help you (or anyone else reading with the same stigma), but you have to try to think of having a therapist like "I'm asking you to help me get through my then and now issues" and not "I'm paying you to listen to me vent". Like acknowledge that it is their job, but know that their purpose is to help you, not just listen. Also don't be afraid to switch therapists if you don't jive with one of them! You're going to see them to help you and if you feel like a different personality would help you better, go find that person!
Therapy has been so helpful imo, I’ve healed from the things that originally put me in therapy but just being able to walk in and complain has been amazing (especially in college). The first maybe 3-4 sessions were the hardest because you’re really still introducing yourself, but after that? I’ve been absolutely thriving since I have a space to talk about anything without the option of the person lashing out at me.
as someone who starts going to art school in the fall, i can say that it definitely can be a waste because of how competitive the field is and how absurdly expensive it is too. especially depending on which school you go to. however, i also know that getting work in the art industry is a bit better with a degree- even getting freelance work can be hard without “certifications.”
I don't like going to therapy but if Max and Ross were my therapist I would love it. Unless pookie is in all the ink pictures then I might need more therapy.
when i was in therapy like 3 years ago, my therapist sat me down one day at the end of a session and told me we needed to find me another therapist because she realized i was dating her nephew and she didn’t want that inhibiting my progress in therapy. about two weeks later he broke up with me and i am 10000% more sad that i lost my therapist than losing my ex boyfriend
Listening to the stigma you all stated is honestly funny to me with how much I hear it as a therapist student. I will say that therapy is definitely a hard profession for both the therapist and client. However, it is important that you find a therapist you like that you can develop a well-made workplace relationship. If not, you will not heal or communicate efficiently.
I've had therapy twice. Once in the beginning of middle school because I had anger issues. I have it now as well. My mom put me in because she needed to figure out if I was gay and how to Handle it. I wanted in because I was depressed and sad. Now stuff is better, I have a high chance of being adhd. Yada yada yada. Max if you're considering therapy try it. I was so against it when I was younger but it did make me feel better. I talked about you and Ross and how you've helped me with finding sources of happiness. I hope Figaro gets better and I hope you will continue to grow.
I hope Figaro can get well soon, it's very nerve racking when our beloved pets get ill; stay safe everyone and let's all wish for a fast recovery for cute lil Figaro!!
Actually a lot of therapists had or even still have issues themselves. It's like a circle,not knowing what's going on with you makes you want to learn and then want to help people know so they aren't as clueless as you were.
i actually agree about the art in college thing- and i just literally graduated w/ an associate's degree in visual arts lmao (switching to east asian studies major Japanese studies minor bachelors in the fall tho and im hyped)
I struggled with depression and anxiety since age 9 due to a heavy amount of bullying and my mental disorder. I regret not getting therapy sooner. it helps a lot with my mental health and it gets so much better.
I’ve heard the biggest good from going to art school is gaining a community. Like the friends and just having other ppl in the art community to get and give advice and check up on
Im getting my associates in fine arts right now (for free) and I definitely agree with the idea that you don't need to have a degree but the majority of jobs in the field require even a bachelor's just to get an entry level job
In my psychology and social work courses they always emphasized self care and therapy for those in the fields, due to the caregiver burnout so many people in these fields experience. They are super emotionally taxing careers!
I had a therapist that had me sit in between my parents as they argued to figure out where their problems in their marriage came from. I no longer had to visit therapists after that. I like to think that it was my birthday present from my therapist.
I feel so called out about art school, but you guys are 100% right. I have never felt so stressed in school before because I always feel like my work isn't good enoug. It's a constant game of comparing my "art style" to another person's style and feeling inadequate. I highly regret taking this Major and wish I wouldve went to college for something else.
Idk if your gonna see this, but I just wanted to say thanks for all that you have done Max! I just graduated high school and I’ve been watching you since the beginning of middle school. You and Ross have been the few creators that I’ve watched through out these past years, you helped me through hard time and never failed to make me laugh. So I really appreciate you and the gang for all that you do! :D
Alot of therapist go through second hand trauma I asked a therapist about it once she said she had one herself she was really sweet and a good person I miss her
Great video, I found this really funny. Hey Max. As someone who has been in therapy since I was 4, and have had CPS called on my family twice by some horrible people, if you do go to therapy, make sure you find a person you like. I'm still a minor and had my therapist changed last year after my mother passed away, but I love the person I have now. But some therapists with make you feel horrible for no reason, I really do suggest trying people out before deciding on keeping them. Most allow trial periods. I very much enjoy your videos, love you guys!
AS SOMEONE WHO GOES TO COLLEGE FOR ART The biggest reason to go is if you wanna break into the art field (beyond just doing commissions), colleges do help you make those connections to set you up way earlier in life. Ive also just learned a lot that I otherwise wouldntve gotten if I was learning on my own. I agree tho art college is a colossal waste of money in most cases
I’ve been in therapy for at least a year now and it’s been great. I got forced into it when I was 17 and hated it like crazy. But now at 21 it’s actually incredible
I’m gonna be a senior in the fall and I’d love to to go college for art and you guys made me kinda intimidated now cause I never really thought about it like that😭😭
In Jerry’s skin I saw the universe born, grow, die, and then reborn. I saw those before me and after me live their lives, I saw every event in history and every event that has yet to come. Our lives are just an endless loop, we make our own choices but the results are the same with minuscule differences. I think I need to take a nap.
I've been in therapy since I was maybe 10 years old. I love my therapist and im sad that she is retiring this year. I've had the same therapist since I was 11.
I've been in therapy for a few years at age 18 I found out I have autism now I'm 22 still doing therapy to learn how to deal and cope with all the things that come with being autistic plus I have cptsd a form of ptsd but cptsd is from multiple traumatic instances not just on and the reason I have a form of ptsd is cause I wasn't taught popularly so here I am now 22 doing therapy and I have a service dog for multiple disabilities many times I wish I could make all this go away but it's something I have to live with so I do my best to live my life the best I can and max you always make me laugh and smile I always look forward to your videos they make my daily worries disappear just for a few minutes and that is gold time for me and for that I thank you ^w^
Currently going to college for art, on the good side is nice to have stuff to do and learn how to do new art stuff, on the other hand, the moment i get a chance to become a tattoo artist or something im DROPPING OUT
Hoping the best for you and I hope it gets ya far. Sorry if I said anything that got you offended, just personally feel like college itself is a waste of money, not just art.
I've been to therapy as a kid and honestly, it made me feel worse, therapy isn't for everyone. The only good thing I got out of it was diagnosed so I could finally understand myself better
As a person wanting to go to art school I can confirm it did piss me off. I understand the competitive part or art school. I’m also somewhat a perfectionist (according to my psychiatrist and mom but I also agree). But I’m also a big procrastinator. I’ve had art block for a while now. Also I went to therapy when I was younger because I was adopted and things that happened before I was adopted. I got taken out of therapy and put back in ,in middle school but taken out again cause my mom got a job. Moral of the story I’m a artist with ✨trauma ✨who is no longer in therapy but I’m better.
As someone about to finish my degree in the arts, yes it can be a total scam, if not for two things. One, networking and basically getting your foot in the door, and two, good habits. Art degrees at a good school generally get to a point where you have long term projects so all consuming that you actually have to pace yourself because you physically cannot procrastinate until the last second. Most stuff you learn in college can be found online, but having to develop a good work ethic and self discipline to pass is honestly underrated and can be really useful especially in independent work.
I do therapy once a month! And what Ross said said about Mountain Dew and Caffeine... is not uncommon. I got told by mine that I shouldn't drink caffeine past 12pm because it'll mess up my sleep, which starts an infinite cycle of my lack of sleep making me depressed, which made me anxious, and because I was anxious I wouldn't sleep.
ur not mean thats just how friends are, i call my friends dumb b*s and they call me a dumb b* that's alright. also i can't afford a figaro shirt at the moment but lots of love to you and i hope this wonderful community can always help you
If you ever are thinking of getting a therapist, always look into their training. Some are trained in there depression, or anxiety, or something else, and unfortunately there are a good amount of therapist that step outside their training. Also look into what type of therapy you want. There’s psychoanalysis, behavioral, cognitive, etc. I guess what I’m trying to say is do your tease arch so that you can get the best therapist
Hey Max, I know that dealing with stressors, upsetting moments and even sometimes happy moments can be extremely draining, so if you need the time off, please do. You need to take breaks too, just like anyone else. So please, if you need people to talk to, I can vouch for most of your fans, we're here. we want to make sure that you feel at your best even when it's hard to just smile. You deserve to have a break and it's okay to be upset at times, just don't forget there are people who may not even know you who care about how you're feeling! Don't feel pressured to just say that you're fine or okay if you aren't! ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊
And that goes for everyone. If you're having a hard time, it's okay to not be okay. Just remember that people do care, even a stranger like me cam care for someone they may have never met
I'm going to college for art and animation but the only reason my dad wants me to go is to find friends I also wanna learn how to bake over there. It sounded good to me but the last thing he said was to also find a lover..... my brain went blank after he said that. Well good luck to me 😢 Going soon now. This was a good therapy session to rant I needed it thank you.
10:00 My friend, upon learning I was applying for a creative writing course, insisted that it was silly because writing was supposed to come from my own imagination. However, this same friend was also then baffled when I explained that the course taught you to write in varying forms of creative writing. She thought creative writing was only novels, which maybe slightly invalidates her stance on the subject.
I had a friend try to convince me to go to college and I kept telling her no cuz I'm an artist and I kept telling her that an art degree is useless. Eventually to get her to shut up I tried community college and ended up having a mental breakdown a week in. My sister told me that if I dropped out when I did mom and dad would at least get a refund so I called my mom and told her I wanted to drop out and she gave me the okay. All I remember that day was crying at my computer over my school work then crying at the elementary school cuz I had to pick up my neice and she was being difficult. Not a fun day but I learned collage wasn't for me.
I think the only reason you go to college for an art degree is if you're going for something extremely specific. I'm in college to get an art degree but it has a specific title and requires a lot more than just talking art and GE courses, still agree though that it's mentally draining though-
@@msbelover Yeah like they bring up in the video. There are specific jobs that require an art degree but if your not going for those jobs its useless. I wish you luck with your degree tho. ^v^
Also I have a memory of literally like 8 months after I turned 1. It saw at the zoo and my mom was pregers with my brother.... So there was alot I wished to forget. I do remember a tea set I got tho from a give away.
One thing I’m glad for is that my parents never married, they just hated each other so I never had to go through divorce, I just never really had a mom when I was 1-5 💀
My mother got divorced many many times and I didn't realize it till I was the age of 14 or 15 and when I did my depression was so bad that I just literally started flunking school to where I'd always pass but just barely
Depends on the person I guess, lol Talking about how you wish they divorced when you were young... My parents separated when I was 3... Good 11 years after, all I did was blame myself. Though, I am glad they did it when they did... They were awful together.
now that this video has come out, i realized how broken my body is because i’ve had mental therapy, physical therapy, and occupational therapy like 😭😭 how brutal is that
I starred as an interior design major and then switch to teaching. The final project they bring in critics and they critique your work like Gordon Ramsay. No joke.
I think I know one reason why thoughts artists passed, colleges don’t care about talent or skill they care about the story the and artist is trying to tell
i’m going to college for art,, but that’s cuz i’m in a program where i’m getting my associates degree 1 yr after high school graduating (next yr) and i pay for none of it :) and i don’t plan on any further education cuz then i can do self studies if i want but also go into the careers i want (content creating, free lance art and photography)
when it comes to therapy as long as they arent a psychiatrist you can be sure they aren't just doing it for the money, not all psychiatrists are money grubbers but i know a few can be. therapy itself isnt a high enough paying job to only be doing it for money. i would try it and if it is very obvious that it is just for the money you can always switch therapists
Max don’t worry, I’m also a child of a late divorce. I was leaving for my first year of college and my dad decided he wanted a divorce because they were in a loveless marriage. The part that I laugh about though is that their loveless marriage officially ended on the day of love…yup, their divorce date is Valentine’s Day of this year 😂😂😂
Sorry for the reload. TH-cam has been awful today.

Not your fault no need to be sorry

"Cool sentence, dude. Never day it again." That's gotta be one of my favorite Pooki quotes 🤣
Thank you so much for putting out great content with all that you're going through. All that and you still manage to get a video out to us today.
I’ve been in therapy for at least a year now and it’s been great. I got forced into it when I was 17 and hated it like crazy. But now at 21 it’s actually incredible
I really needed this since I really need therapy but cant get help so your videos are therapy for me
I’m gonna be a senior in the fall and I’d love to to go college for art and you guys made me kinda intimidated now cause I never really thought about it like that😭😭
I’m in the same boat LMAO, I plan to major in visual arts and minor in teaching, it would be worth it as long as I get to be an art teacher to me tbh
In Jerry’s skin I saw the universe born, grow, die, and then reborn. I saw those before me and after me live their lives, I saw every event in history and every event that has yet to come.
Our lives are just an endless loop, we make our own choices but the results are the same with minuscule differences.
I think I need to take a nap.
I've been in therapy since I was maybe 10 years old. I love my therapist and im sad that she is retiring this year. I've had the same therapist since I was 11.
I've been in therapy for a few years at age 18 I found out I have autism now I'm 22 still doing therapy to learn how to deal and cope with all the things that come with being autistic plus I have cptsd a form of ptsd but cptsd is from multiple traumatic instances not just on and the reason I have a form of ptsd is cause I wasn't taught popularly so here I am now 22 doing therapy and I have a service dog for multiple disabilities many times I wish I could make all this go away but it's something I have to live with so I do my best to live my life the best I can and max you always make me laugh and smile I always look forward to your videos they make my daily worries disappear just for a few minutes and that is gold time for me and for that I thank you ^w^
Currently going to college for art, on the good side is nice to have stuff to do and learn how to do new art stuff, on the other hand, the moment i get a chance to become a tattoo artist or something im DROPPING OUT
Hoping the best for you and I hope it gets ya far. Sorry if I said anything that got you offended, just personally feel like college itself is a waste of money, not just art.
@@Mithzan tysm! And oh no college fucking sucks for being so expensive i just didn’t want to not do anything for now lol
I've been to therapy as a kid and honestly, it made me feel worse, therapy isn't for everyone. The only good thing I got out of it was diagnosed so I could finally understand myself better
I've seen it once and I'll see it again, just for you max.
thanks, now I got something to watch tomorow morning while eating breakfast
As a person wanting to go to art school I can confirm it did piss me off. I understand the competitive part or art school. I’m also somewhat a perfectionist (according to my psychiatrist and mom but I also agree). But I’m also a big procrastinator. I’ve had art block for a while now. Also I went to therapy when I was younger because I was adopted and things that happened before I was adopted. I got taken out of therapy and put back in ,in middle school but taken out again cause my mom got a job. Moral of the story I’m a artist with ✨trauma ✨who is no longer in therapy but I’m better.
As someone about to finish my degree in the arts, yes it can be a total scam, if not for two things. One, networking and basically getting your foot in the door, and two, good habits. Art degrees at a good school generally get to a point where you have long term projects so all consuming that you actually have to pace yourself because you physically cannot procrastinate until the last second. Most stuff you learn in college can be found online, but having to develop a good work ethic and self discipline to pass is honestly underrated and can be really useful especially in independent work.
I do therapy once a month! And what Ross said said about Mountain Dew and Caffeine... is not uncommon. I got told by mine that I shouldn't drink caffeine past 12pm because it'll mess up my sleep, which starts an infinite cycle of my lack of sleep making me depressed, which made me anxious, and because I was anxious I wouldn't sleep.
It's okay max as long as you and your family is okay thats all matters we all love you xx and hope that you are well and healthy xx
ur not mean thats just how friends are, i call my friends dumb b*s and they call me a dumb b* that's alright. also i can't afford a figaro shirt at the moment but lots of love to you and i hope this wonderful community can always help you
As someone who wants to go to college for art, you can’t really fail an art class, as long as you put in an effort you get a grade
If you ever are thinking of getting a therapist, always look into their training. Some are trained in there depression, or anxiety, or something else, and unfortunately there are a good amount of therapist that step outside their training. Also look into what type of therapy you want. There’s psychoanalysis, behavioral, cognitive, etc. I guess what I’m trying to say is do your tease arch so that you can get the best therapist
Hey Max, I know that dealing with stressors, upsetting moments and even sometimes happy moments can be extremely draining, so if you need the time off, please do. You need to take breaks too, just like anyone else. So please, if you need people to talk to, I can vouch for most of your fans, we're here. we want to make sure that you feel at your best even when it's hard to just smile. You deserve to have a break and it's okay to be upset at times, just don't forget there are people who may not even know you who care about how you're feeling! Don't feel pressured to just say that you're fine or okay if you aren't! ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊
And that goes for everyone. If you're having a hard time, it's okay to not be okay. Just remember that people do care, even a stranger like me cam care for someone they may have never met
I'm going to college for art and animation but the only reason my dad wants me to go is to find friends I also wanna learn how to bake over there. It sounded good to me but the last thing he said was to also find a lover..... my brain went blank after he said that. Well good luck to me 😢 Going soon now. This was a good therapy session to rant I needed it thank you.
It's ok i can watch this while I'm going to bed and chilling with my cat.....I love the video😊
This video came out on my first day of therapy. I find that infinitely amusing.
The videos finally working now! Thank you so much!

My friend, upon learning I was applying for a creative writing course, insisted that it was silly because writing was supposed to come from my own imagination.
However, this same friend was also then baffled when I explained that the course taught you to write in varying forms of creative writing. She thought creative writing was only novels, which maybe slightly invalidates her stance on the subject.
I hadn't watched "So How Does this Make You Feel...?" yet, so when I saw the notification, I just thought that this was a very fast sequel to that.
I had a friend try to convince me to go to college and I kept telling her no cuz I'm an artist and I kept telling her that an art degree is useless. Eventually to get her to shut up I tried community college and ended up having a mental breakdown a week in. My sister told me that if I dropped out when I did mom and dad would at least get a refund so I called my mom and told her I wanted to drop out and she gave me the okay. All I remember that day was crying at my computer over my school work then crying at the elementary school cuz I had to pick up my neice and she was being difficult. Not a fun day but I learned collage wasn't for me.
I think the only reason you go to college for an art degree is if you're going for something extremely specific. I'm in college to get an art degree but it has a specific title and requires a lot more than just talking art and GE courses, still agree though that it's mentally draining though-
@@msbelover Yeah like they bring up in the video. There are specific jobs that require an art degree but if your not going for those jobs its useless. I wish you luck with your degree tho. ^v^
Therapist: Stop drinking caffeine
Me: You can pry my caffeinated beverages out of my cold dead hands.
Also I have a memory of literally like 8 months after I turned 1. It saw at the zoo and my mom was pregers with my brother.... So there was alot I wished to forget. I do remember a tea set I got tho from a give away.
I agree with Ross One-way glass, must be a integral to therapy.
Them as therapist would just cause complete chaos in the world
One thing I’m glad for is that my parents never married, they just hated each other so I never had to go through divorce, I just never really had a mom when I was 1-5 💀
This video is like therapy to me
it's all good. can't wait to rewatxh it ❣️
THERAPY HIDE AND SEEK 💀😭 i would go to therapy if this was the concept
I love watching these sm 😭
Sending lots of love for Fígaro!
ahhh I’m so glad it’s working now. TH-cam has been so rude to me lately with videos 😂
YESSS AUDIO THANK YOU MAX!!!!
My mother got divorced many many times and I didn't realize it till I was the age of 14 or 15 and when I did my depression was so bad that I just literally started flunking school to where I'd always pass but just barely
Thanks for reuploading Max, youtube is being extra stupid today for some reason but glad I can watch your video now
Depends on the person I guess, lol
Talking about how you wish they divorced when you were young... My parents separated when I was 3... Good 11 years after, all I did was blame myself. Though, I am glad they did it when they did... They were awful together.
now that this video has come out, i realized how broken my body is because i’ve had mental therapy, physical therapy, and occupational therapy like 😭😭 how brutal is that
All those problems but you're still kickin. Stay strong pal.
I wanna go to art school because I wanna go into the comics world and I wanna learn about it from professionals in how to get better and learn.
Aghhhh 😌 that’s me releasing frustration because Max has another amazing video released
Art Student who going to art school I understand the talk that you've had. I've been debating whether or not to go or not. Still have decided yet. U_U
You know what they say! Dont force it, divorce it!
6:46 I wished I saw this at the age of 13 maybe that way I'd be a bit more happy then... But love this video of therapy it's making my day bright! :]
I almost majored in psychology but realized that my mental health is shit and I would not be able to handle my issues and other peoples
I starred as an interior design major and then switch to teaching. The final project they bring in critics and they critique your work like Gordon Ramsay. No joke.
I think I know one reason why thoughts artists passed, colleges don’t care about talent or skill they care about the story the and artist is trying to tell
i’m going to college for art,, but that’s cuz i’m in a program where i’m getting my associates degree 1 yr after high school graduating (next yr) and i pay for none of it :) and i don’t plan on any further education cuz then i can do self studies if i want but also go into the careers i want (content creating, free lance art and photography)
I think that's awesome that you're going. I'm personally not a fan of college in general which is why I never went. Hope it works out for ya.
@@Mithzan thx ^^ it’s going well so far but i’m also tired of going when i could be doing other stuff lmao
I wanna be a therapist or at least a school counselor, also this map looks so pretty??
I would of kept waiting. Your videos are always so much fun to watch
sending you and Figaro lots of love. once i get payed imma def buy one of the shirts
when it comes to therapy as long as they arent a psychiatrist you can be sure they aren't just doing it for the money, not all psychiatrists are money grubbers but i know a few can be. therapy itself isnt a high enough paying job to only be doing it for money. i would try it and if it is very obvious that it is just for the money you can always switch therapists
While I did end up watching it on my Nintendo switch, I’m glad I can watch it on my phone now
Max don’t worry, I’m also a child of a late divorce. I was leaving for my first year of college and my dad decided he wanted a divorce because they were in a loveless marriage. The part that I laugh about though is that their loveless marriage officially ended on the day of love…yup, their divorce date is Valentine’s Day of this year 😂😂😂
I’m pretty sure I made my therapist go into therapy XD
Yes it works now! Love the vid
