Love the sound of Nala snoring in the background at the part with Zo's therapist, very relaxing
“You don’t always have to feel how you’re feeling. It doesn’t have to be how you live the rest of your life”. This is important.
honestly, thank you for your vulnerability with your anxiety update. it was lovely to see your therapist acknowledge how far you’ve come :’)
this is worded perfectly
Honestly think you should give yourself more credit for talking about mental health and anxiety at a time when no one else was. It gave me and so many people the courage to talk about it more. Breaking the “taboo” around mental health and sharing your journey with your huge audience has honestly been life changing for so many people. On behalf of all of us, thank you. Thanks for starting this almost 10 years ago, and thanks for continuing to do so❤
Dear Zoe, YOU are the reason why I’ve been going to therapy for the past 6 years. Back when no one talked about mental health, you were brave enough to share your anxiety with the world and in doing so you helped me and many many others in naming the pain we were feeling. Hearing you speak to your therapist today was very emotional and relatable, I am too seeing the end of the tunnel, I can finally deal with the world, with people, I have two lovely kids and god knows how I would have dealt with motherhood without therapy, but here I am, and although I give myself and my therapist a big pat in the back, you too have played a big part in all this, so thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
I don’t usually comment on TH-cam videos but I have been watching you since I was really young and have suffered with bad anxiety this whole time and it is so comforting and reassuring to hear someone with a platform bring light to it. I can really relate to the things you and your therapist says and it gives me hope that you can ‘get better’ so thank you ☺️
I suffered with it a lot too and felt I was the only one in the world to do so.
I’d love to hear about Alfie’s experience and/or advice about dating someone with anxiety. Like how to build a relationship with someone who has anxious moments like that because I’m experiencing dating someone with anxiety now and I just want the best for him
Zoe: “shall we…”
Ottie: *shoves chocolate in mouth*
Zoe”…look at it?..okay…” 😂😂😂
As a long term silent viewer, I just wanted to say I appreciate you sharing your personal struggles with anxiety over the years. I am now in my late 20s and have suffered from anxiety since my teens and can relate to so much of the changes you spoke about with your therapist. Such a nice feeling being able to recognise yourself over time and know how to overcome it when you feel it; acceptance really was key for me also! For anyone else out there struggling with anxiety, you'll get there too someday, keep going!
Enjoying all of your vlogs as always 🙂x
I love that Zoe tell Nala "let go wake up your sister" when talking about Ottie.
In 2011 you wrote a blog post about panic attacks and I read it as well as almost every post you've published. When I read that, it became very clear to me that my personal struggles that I have been experiencing since I was 7 years old are not normal. Thanks to that post I finally opend up to school psychologist and was diagnosed very soon with anxiety-depressive disorder and panic attacks. Thank you Zoe for truly making a difference in my life.
Literally started crying when you were giving love to those who are struggling at the moment.
Same . Really struggling rn and I needed to hear that
The anxiety check in has really helped me today, it’s nice to know you aren’t the only one going through it :)
Zoe is the queen of Christmas vlogging 🎉
THE FEELING OF A NEW VLOGMAS VID FROM ZOE NEVER GETS OLDDD
I feel so proud of you hearing you talk about how far you've come with your anxiety, and being able to see it through your videos over the years too. I've been watching you since 2012 when I was 14 and I remember the relief/reassurance I felt when you first uploaded your anxiety video. Your channel felt like my comfort place anyway, and then to find out that you had anxiety and panic attacks exactly the same as I did, it helped me so much at the time to know I was not alone. I'm 24 now and doing much better than I was 10 years ago, I still feel like I have a bit of a way to go, but I definitely feel like I'm getting there, and hearing you talk about how well you're getting on now, it makes me believe I'll fully get to where you are one day too xx
same here! we got this xx
i love this
A thumbs up to this comment wasn’t enough because I truly couldn’t agree with this more.
I just want to say that I am suffering with an awful debilitating chest infection/flu at the moment and I am stuck inside. These videos are the only thing getting me through my days and I don’t feel my pain when I’m watching Zoe, Alfie and Ottie. Love you all, please don’t stop being so bloody fantastic!
Get well soon ❤
Aww oh no I hope you get better
Omg actually same!!! I was literally about to write the same thing wow lol
So thankful for Zoe,Alfie, and Ottie Vlogmas🙌🙏♥️😭
Get well soon! Our family had it a few weeks ago, no fun! Hang in there!
Get well soon!❤
Firstly I want to say thank you. 10 years ago I was sat on my bed crying my eyes out as I couldn't cope with how I was feeling. I had no idea what it was or what to do. I started searching my symptoms on the internet and your video popped up. The relief I felt was incredible, to find someone else talk about the same feelings I felt. I knew I wasn't alone! I have followed you ever since 🥰 xxx
I’m dying when Ottie yeeted the dog off the tv stand and it did a front flip and carried on walking 😂😂
I’m one of the people who started following you because of the anxiety video! I couldn’t believe how vulnerable you let yourself be and it’s one of the many reasons I love you and am so grateful for you. I’ve learned so much through you. Could you please share more in depth about the tools you use that have helped with your anxiety?
I love Alfie’s editing! You can definitely feel the difference. Alfie’s video style is a whole vibe. So crisp and clean cut, I feel myself consistently focused on the video and not distracted. I love Zoe’s style too but i did notice a difference. So grateful for the joy you both bring to my life.
That anxiety video is 100% how I first found you!! I’ve struggled heavily with anxiety since I was a kid but couldn’t put a name to it until you explained what you were going through, so thank you! Love from Seattle!
Exact same story here. So much love to Zoe and anyone struggling with anxiety
Found myself having a little cry when you were talking to your therapist. I struggle so much with anxiety and my life is very restricted because of it. I'm waiting for an autism diagnosis. Autism manifests so differently in women- anxiety is a main component to it. Thank you for this vlog zoe, I have a little more hope that time and hard work will heal ❤️ 💖 💗
Please Zoe, can you talk about some of the practical things you have done over the last 10 years which have helped you get to this healing point with your anxiety. Thank you so much for sharing and I’m happy for you and your family that you have your anxiety under control xx
hearing you talk about your anxiety, almost in past tense in a way brings more comfort than i can even explain. as someone in what feels like the storm of her anxiety, sometimes you just need to hear from other people not in your life that "it will be okay and won't last forever". i've been watching for about 9 years and seeing your journey is helping me now in ways i didn't understand back then. sending so much love to you. THANK-YOU
I cannot put into words how much it helped me seeing you open up about your anxiety and panic attacks back then. You helped me to put into words what was going on with me and you made me feel less alone and less crazy. Ever since I started to work on my mental health and can now proudly say that I got diagnosed and am currently in therapy. Mental health is different for everyone but talking about it so openly helps so much. So thank you Zoe - for everything you did, at doing and will be doing 🤍 (btw how has it been almost 10 years since that video?! I’m now feeling old)
I’m currently in The process of quitting my anxiety meds I’ve been taking for 7 years and This video helped me remember that I’m actually doing a good job ❤️ Thanks for the reminder.
Well done
Nala certainly wasn’t anxious during your zoom with the therapist!😂😴😴😴 She works on animals too🐶
I was waiting for this upload and internally rooting for you to upload 😄
Ottie is going to miss the advent calendar 😂 My 5 year old son every day he opens his says “and I definitely can’t have another one?” 🤦🏽♀️😂❤️
❤😂❤
I was thinking the same thing 😂 she’s too young to understand that it’s going to stop after Christmas bless her
Nala snoring in the background during the therapy session was so adorable 😂
At least I’m not the only one that tells our doggies that the kids are their brothers and sisters ❤
I can’t get over the happiness of watching every video of yours, love you guys always 💕
Same here❤
Thank you for demystifying therapy! It’s not serious people in white coats. It’s a conversation with someone that has the learning to help you achieve whatever you want to achieve x
Nala snoring away while you're on zoom with your therapist 😂
I cried through all convo with the therapist. I suffer from generalised anxiety disorder and depression and you were the first one that told me that what I experience are panic attacks. Now I live my life with more ease just like you. This is a beautiful journey, thank you for letting us see your true and honest heart.
Thank you so much for always getting me through this time of year Zoe and thank you Alfie for allowing Zoe to do Vlogmas this year 🤍
Loved listening to the anxiety chat with a mix of nala snores 😆🤍
I literally started crying when you compared your anxiety to dark clouds that went thinner and thinner over the years. I am now 22 and can see myself in your younger self, but still feel sooooo proud of you and your journey so far. Thank you for sharing! 🤍
It’s so fantastic to see you use your platform for talking about your anxiety/mental health ❤ I’ve had anxiety for a very long time all through my teen years and watching your videos would bring me so much comfort knowing I wasn’t alone. I really love how raw and honest you are despite having the life you have, it lets us know that everyone has their struggles it doesn’t matter who you are, we’re all in this together as a community ❤
The first video I saw of yours was the one on panic attacks ten years ago. I was a teenager then, and I didn't know the terminology to explain how I felt. I remember even thinking hyperventilating when crying was normal. The video was such an eye-opener for me and such a priceless gift of illumination. And for that, I thank you. I never would have thought I would be in such a better place ten years later. I'm glad you are, too.
Zoe, that piece with your therapist is one of the most important gifts you have ever given to anyone who suffers with mental health difficulties... hope, hope that (with putting in "the work") I will feel better. I'm brought to tears. Thank you. x
You and your therapist explained anxiety so clearly and accurately. ❤️
I almost thought that the vlog is not coming today. It made my Friday evening!
I always related to your experience with anxiety, and knowing that you have grown with it and utilized in a helpful and functional matter, has helped me so much today. Especially the part about your anxiety being a little friend that is checking in on you. The reframing is so beautiful and self-loving, thank you.
Loved the bit about your anxiety and the journey you have gone through. It feels really empowering just listening to it. I loved your metaphor with the clouds. I always say it is all about taking the steering wheel back into your hands and letting anxiety sit back in the car or even the boot and not let it actually steer you down a hill. It is not about kicking it out of the car, it is about tolerating it sitting in the car but knowing YOU are in control, what way you are going and at what speed you want to get there.
Loved this! You can be very proud and it is such a nice message for everyone going through therapy.
Hi! Not sure if you will ever see this but I have been watching you since the beginning. 10 years ago, I was 16 and struggling IMMENSELY with anxiety and panic attacks to the point where I had to leave high school for online school. I remember watching your anxiety video and thinking "wow. I am not alone." Since then, I feel SO much better anxiety wise and really feel like I am living my best life. This video make me emotional to see how far you have come, and realized that I have come along way too! I have LOVED growing up alongside you, your videos comfort me SO much. I do hope you see this, as your videos have had a huge impact on me for a large chunk of my young adult life! Thank you, sending love from the US! :)
That anxiety video literally saved my life. I was struggling with crippling panic attacks and felt so incredibly broken but was too scared to ask for help for fear of judgement (grew up being taught that talking to someone is weakness and shameful). Watching/listening to you be so open and vulnerable took all my walls down and the next day I asked for help. I found an amazing therapist, who reminds me a lot of yours, and started on a journey (that I’m still on) to unpack my trauma slowly and gently and care for all my younger parts that felt scared and alone. It’s only this year that I’ve had those same moments of why on earth is this not making me anxious when it should. 😊 I love that for you and am so grateful for the seed you planted in me way across the pond to discover the life that I always deserved but never believed I did until now. Xoxo
Thank you so much for sharing that segment with your therapist. My anxiety has been building and building over the past couple of years and it feels like it's reaching a fever pitch. It's getting in the way of both the academic and social side of university and it's making me so frustrated and sad. Seeing you break through this (even if it took a while) is such a promising and relieving thing. You have filled me - and I'm sure many others - with hope that I can sort my noggin out. Well done you, and THANK YOU
Nalas snoring had my life 🫣😂 I kept pausing the video thinking I could hear something in my house😂 then realised it was Nala 😂😂😂
Just want to say thank you so much for always bringing up the subject of mental health, specifically anxiety. I have suffered with anxiety for 10 years now and I will say your videos have definitely helped me over the past 10 years, so thank you so muchhh
as someone who also struggles with anxiety and panic disorders the anxiety talk really helped. i’ve always found comfort in your videos bc of the way you’ve brought light to it. you have helped me tremendously through the years as i’ve been watching you from age 13 until now. i’m 23 now. this year has been the worst my panic disorder has ever been but i’ve been working at it every day. thank you for making this a conversation we can feel comfortable to have! xo
Thank you for talking about your anxiety Zoe, I’m 36 and have struggled with anxiety for around 9 years. I’ve tried so many types of therapy and recently done a lot of reading and work on my own but I know I’m not living my life in the way I could but I’ve only recent realised how long it can take to undo years of negative wiring. So your update gave me hope ❤
there's an 8-hour time difference between Brighton and Taipei, which I wake up everyday with a vlogmas, is just like doing my advent calendar every day, an absolute joy. I've been following you guys since 2014 and have been a fan ever since. thank you so much for always putting a smile on my face with your videos. they are just so heart warming and fun. and thank you for being open with your life and your mental health issues. glad to know that you are know doing better. I just want to wish you and all your family a very merry Christmas. 😉
I've recently started back on anxiety meds. Thank you for this making anxiety seem not such a massive stigma as I've been feeling like a failure needing medication now but I simply cannot afford my counselling anymore with the cost of living. It is getting to the point I can't even drive my car.
Thanks for sharing such a raw conversation with your therapist, she seems to completely understand your minds inner workings and it’s really given me faith in therapists having just started therapy myself! Have suffered with anxiety my whole life (now 23) and have watched since I was around 12 and stayed for the relatable content. Currently at the point of frustration with my anxiety (suffering so much with panic attacks at the moment from what I think is a fear of being sick/ being trapped and finding it so restricting in my day to day life and career goals too!!)
Genuinely just want to reach out and cuddle your therapist I need her in my life xxxx❤ thank you both for inspiring to carry on with my therapy and for making it feel more normal xxx
Had a bubbly bath, cold glass of wine and in my cosy bed watching Vlogmas . This is what Friday evenings are made for 😊
The chat about your anxiety with your therapist gives me so much hope!!! I’m in a particularly rough patch with my own anxiety right now & it’s so comforting to know that you came out the other side ❤️❤️❤️
It's so great to hear about your progress with your anxiety. I've had anxiety since I was a kid and thankfully that side of my mental health seems to have improved, however I still suffer with severe depression. I'm in a particularly bad episode right now and I feel kinda stuck and hopeless, but hearing you and your therapist talking about how you managed to overcome your struggles makes me almost look forward to the day when I can do that, so thank you for sharing. It also gave me a kick in the arse to actually find a good therapist and not one who cancels nearly every appointment!
The anxiety update was exceptionally well done!
As someone who has been a viewer for a very long time I just have to say thank you for what you have done for me and many other anxiety sufferers. I feel like I didn’t even REALIZE I had anxiety or that there was a name for what I was going through until hearing you speak about your experiences years ago. You have genuinely been like a big sister as I have gone through my teens to mid twenties and I feel like I have grown in my mental health journey along with you! Thank your for the safe space of comfort you have always created online :)
I got so emotional watching you talk to your therapist and to hear you're doing better
I’m currently in grad school for counseling, and also struggle with anxiety myself so I loved hearing the candid conversation about your experience as well as the techniques you guys implement into your lives. I’ve watched you since I was 12 and you always made me feel normal when I was handling my own anxiety as you were always so open with your attacks and triumphs. Thank you for still being open about your journey.
It fills me with so much joy hearing you say how much you have grown with your anxiety. Proud of you Zoe. As someone who struggles with severe anxiety/OCD hearing you say how life with anxiety can be and will be okay - only reaffirms me that life is not my mental illness. ❤
you have been such an important voice about anxiety for me over the past 10 years. because of how open you were about it I went to a therapist and discovered my anxiety and getting to the root of it I also discovered that I have ADHD, at 20 years old I was properly diagnosed. I feel so incredibly happy to hear how far you have come and I hope to get to a similar place soon, thank you Zoe for being so open your jurney
I dont comment often but thought i would after the chat you had.
Ive had anxiety & depression for as long as i can remember. Over 20 years(i’m 32)
In 2020 i had a mental breakdown, signed off work due to my mental health & also diagnosed with severe agoraphobia & im currently trying to get assessed for adhd and/or autism. When i had my mental breakdown i was with the crisis team & saw such an amazing counsellor & after 6 months she left the place for another job & i got passed onto someone else who made me feel so bad so ive been struggling alone. It makes me smile that you got a good therapist who truely has helped you because i think good therapists are quite rare. Sadly i cant afford one because i got made to go on universal credit. I’ve been watching you since 2010 & at first you was just “this girl i watch on youtube” after some time you became my weekly routine. The day you uploaded the video about your mental health, you changed to me. Im sure many others can relate to this feeling. You became not only very relatable, but i realised that you are a normal human. That someone i admire also shares this horrible illness. It makes me so happy that you continue to upload videos because you’re no longer a weekly routine. You’re my daily routine. I mainly watch your vlogmasses over & over. I start from your first up to the latest & i repeat because they make me feel cosy.
Thank you for not only being such an inspiration, but for sharing your life with us. For being open, honest & vulnerable with us. ❤
I found your channel in 2013 because of the anxiety video. Following you has given me a lot of comfort and over the years, be it escaping from my own life for a moment or feeling like somebody did feel like me, it actually encouraged me to go to therapy and get the help I needed. I‘m happy to say that I have a grip on my anxiety, depression and panic disorder, learning the tools I need to control them. Now, nearly 10 years on I‘m expecting my first baby with my loving partner, something I would not have thought possible back at that time ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for this anxiety chat honestly, I have seen 2 psychologists over the course of 7 years but have recently stop going because I felt I no longer connected with my last one but the chat with your therapist made me realised how much I need to find a new one who I feel I connect to again, thank you I didn’t realise how much I needed it❤️
Just wanted to say how much your videos on anxiety has helped me the years. I’ve been watching you since I was 11 years old (I’m now 19) and have battled constantly with struggles like yours. Having anxiety and depression was extremely difficult at such a young age but coming across your videos made me feel so much less alone and so much more understood. It’s like you literally read my mind! I am so greatful to you each day as you have been such a rock throughout my life. Thank you zoë and you are my inspiration 🥲🫶
If it's not too personal I would love if you spoke more about the tools you've learned to help with lessening or getting you through anxiety/panic attacks. I myself have been diagnosed with a few different anxiety disorders and I've recently tried therapy but unfortunately I parted ways with her. She did teach me a few tips & tricks to help when you're in the thick of panic but I'm curious as to what else may be helpful. Thank you so much for sharing your journey 💜 too often we can feel alone in this or like there may never be a way out. This is just another reminder that this is the furthest from the truth, we can heal.
I’m proud you finally got it. It’s so difficult to get to this point , but you did it. I’m 43 and I didn’t get it til 35. Congrats, your hard work is paying off.
I’m currently doing a counselling course and all I hope is how your therapist has helped you is how I want to help others when I’m qualified, it’s truly a beautiful thing seeing how you’ve developed zo❤️
That's so powerful and true what you were saying. You've been asking yourself why are you like this, like you're broken, i was feeling the same way, I felt luke trapped in my own body and mind, I was in home for 2 years cause i was afraid of everything. And now as you, after therapy I know that anxiety can appear but I am the on in control. Therapy is so damn important that people even can't imagine. Tkank you so much for telling us how haveyou felt and how you are now cause more people can now see that its an enormous thing.
growing up i’ve always appreciated how open you have been with your mental health. i have anxiety myself and you being open about your journey with anxiety for all these years has really helped me💗💗 this vlogmas is truly like a warm hug!!
Zoe your update on anxiety got me ❤ been following you for years (think it must be since around 2012/13) if not earlier. I used to identify as having anxiety and can really relate to what you said around it not always having to be how you feel. Therapy, Yoga, being more vulnerable and just generally looking after myself has changed my life. Doesn't happen overnight, but things really can change for the better. So so lovely to hear and see you're doing so well
Zoe, you have been my rock through my anxiety journey. You made me feel like I wasn’t alone and felt like a friend to turn to even though we’ve never met. Whenever I was having a panic attack I would put on one of your videos and the sound of your voice just seemed to make everything calmer. Definitely the “girl next door” kinda feeling. 🫶🏻 Much love to you and the rest of your beautiful family ❤
I wait for this every morning now !!! My favourite time of day
I really appreciate your vulnerability and openness. I have been with my therapist for five years working through my anxiety and hearing you talk about your journey is really inspiring to keep working on myself to get to that feeling you are talking about. Mental health awareness is so important and seeing you magnifying it’s significance to your audience is so incredible! Been watching you for seven years and can’t wait to see you continue to thrive! 💛
I love seeing Zoe try to get a look at the advent chocolates before Ottie eats them. Bless her, the whole thing is adorable! ❤️
My anxiety has kept me inside for 6 years. It has always been a struggle for me since my breakdown but I have been trying my best to get better and I hope to help others with the same problems one day. 😊
I really want you to know how much it makes me feel understood when you talk about your anxiety and how much watching your videos helps me. This little videos are my little scape and how amazing it is seeing someone being so open about their mental health as I know how difficult it can be since a lot of people think we are just being dramatic. So thank you for using your voice and sharing your experience with us❤
Watching Zoe’s vlogmas vid is like my advent calendar 😆
Seeing your conversation with your therapist made me feel so better, I’ve just got a therapist recently too for anxiety as well so it makes me happy to see that things will get better for me
Thank you for doing what you do Zoe. I suffer from severe anxiety and I've followed your journey for about a decade now. Its so incredibly inspiring to see where you're at now and it gives me hope that things will be okay. This video is exactly what I needed today as I'm starting a new job and was feeling defeated before even trying. This little chat about mental health gave me so much more confidence so once again, thank you.
Your therapist’s voice is comforting. I myself have anxiety, among other things.. I’m proud of where you are!! 😮❤ You have gone a loooing way.. like actually living life❤🎉
Just wanted to stop by and say THANK YOU so much for being your authentic self and letting us see all the parts of the life you lead. I have really grown up with you and can't explain how happy it makes me to see you doing so well and honestly it's so refreshing and reassuring to know that all of us are essentially dealing with anxiety and it's a normal thing. I also look forward to Vlogmas like it's my own personal Advent calendar! Thank you Alfie for editing these for us and getting them out everyday! I keep going back and rewatching after coming back from work whilst having dinner - it feels like being on Facetime with friends. I just feel so grateful that you and Alfie still share your lives with us OG subscribers and everyone. Thank you again for giving me some festive feels whilst I am away from my own family for work. It means the world! Sending you all lots of warm wishes! Cheers!
So lovely of you to share that piece from your therapist. I think it also gives a little window into how lovely therapy is and can be for anyone who is afraid of starting. ❤
Ive been having such a tough time at uni lately and am literally on the verge of dropping out but your videos always bring me comfort and help me relax and you discussing the anxiety you felt at my age and me relating to its so helpful, i just wanted to say thank you so much! ❤
Thank you for sharing the chat with your therapist! I learnt so much about how I can change my approach to feeling anxious rather than becoming frustrated with myself.
I
Thought this was never coming thank the lord it’s here happy vlogmas day 8 ❤
I just want to say thank you for talking about your anxiety. I think the more that we talk about mental issues the better it is for everyone. My daughter suffers from anxiety attacks and last year I had an accident, which I was in the hospital for and I started having some panic attacks. Luckily mine stopped many months ago but now I understand more what she goes through. I’m really glad that you have worked through it.
❤❤ I love that you shared the anxiety segment ❤ I’ve battled anxiety and depression for years and also followed you since pretty much day 1! You have made such a difference in your influencer work in being able to talk about this stuff and I love you still bring this into your vlogs ❤ x
I don't quite know how to explain just how proud I am of you. I have watched for so many years and watching how far you've come always just fills me up with joy, but hearing you candidly talk about your anxiety struggles really hit me hard this time. I remember watching you back then and I think I was too young to fully understand , but now dealing with similiar mental health issues at the same age you were then it makes me really hopeful of getting better myself
Zoe I’m so excited that you’ve come so far with your anxiety. I found you because of your video on anxiety in 2013, My therapist told me that I was having panic attacks and I looked up in the search bar and you video popped up. Almost 10 years later …LOOK AT US!
Edit: also if you want a fast way to clear your windscreen quickly, you can put some warm water in a plastic bag and drag the bag down the screen.
Thank you for showing that little talk with your therapist because I am currently looking into beginning therapy and I am very nervous about it, but that clip made me feel so much better. Thank you 🙏🏻
I feel like these Vlogmas videos feel so much more special this year because Alfie is also apart of the process. I know he’s always in them but it feel’s special that he is editing and more involved, I don’t know why!! But I’m loving the content 🌲🎅🏼❄️
Zoe, I started watching you back in 2012 and when you first posted that video on your anxiety in 2013… you completely changed my perspective on my own life. I was diagnosed with anxiety at age 9, so from 2005 - 2013, I was the only person I knew who struggled with it. The comfort and reassurance you have provided from that first post and onward immeasurable. So thank you for always being so open and honest about mental health…. For me, as I do feel like I have taken a few steps back in my mental health journey, but this video once again has come at the best time for me (a day before my 26th birthday) Thank you for reminding me all the good that can come from bringing awareness and normalcy to anxiety. Just, thank you thank you thank you!
I love the update about the anxiety. I was very very depressed for the late part of my teens to my early 20s, on and off for about 7-8 years. Anxiety and panic attacks were before and during the depression. Almost three years ago, I woke up one day thinking "I think I can handle today". Funnily enough, I got out of my depression in Jan of 2020. I mean, I've been in therapy since I was 12, and I am someone that needs an antidepressant for stabilizing my mood. It took me a very long time to find one that still made me feel like me, and not make me feel like I was drowning.
I am grateful that I had the opportunity to step away from college and work to focus on myself. I had so much self hatred, like I thought the absolute worst about myself and was so dependent on anyone and any kind of attention. I finally found love for myself. After a very long challenging time, and becoming depressed right when college started, I finally graduated with my BA in hotel management, I have a good support system, and I realized I'd rather have joy and self-love and self-respect with a few close friends and family than 20+ people that take advantage of me.
It was really lovely to see that clip of your therapist. Since COVID I have been really struggling with leaving the house at all but hearing that you have learned how to deal with a very similar thing gives me a lot of hope. So glad it has got a lot easier for you Zoe!❤️❤️
