Read this on the internet: "The difference between negativity and positivity is simple: Negativity, is when you start assuming that things will go wrong even before they do. Positivity, is when you remain calm when things go wrong... knowing there is a solution lurking around somewhere just waiting to be found."
When I feel depressed, I usually clean. Because I can't help myself being sad, but I do can control the cleanliness of my house. Sometimes it helps because we do something that's in our control. Like what Iman does is taking a bath. We live in a times where society expects you to achieve something by certain age, so I think that's the main reason why so many people are depressed nowadays.
I can relate so much to Amal, I’ve religiously been watching this podcast since day one & my personality is so similar to Amal. I’m introvert but also super negative lol, a friend can tell a joke & i ruin the whole joke by saying something negative lol. I’m 22 too & it sucks cuz i understand people prefer not to be with me which leads to me being lonely but i don’t mind actually. My weight is also my insecurity, I’ve been overweight my whole teenage life & it sucks cuz I’ve attempted to lose weight many time but failed at the same time. Loosing weight is not easy ://
I can understand what Iman tried to say about shy and i rela duduk tepi at an event...but when i say this to my colleagues for example they wont believe me bcs i talk loud, i fight when i dont agree, this big eyes seem to be excited about everything but in reality i really shy and prefered to be in my room rather than out huffing puffing and even when i told my mom i am really tired bcs of my current job as client management personnel she couldnt believe it, truthfully i tried my hardest to be so so bubbly and helpful and ha ha everything is great, the job is nice but it uses all my wills in living...ugh and Amal, I also understand the neagtive feelings in us all the time but how i fight it is by when u dont have positive things to say to others, dont say it and i dont know if this is ok i ll be oblivious to max?its quite helpful...emm
Discussions are relatable. I think most tanned-skin girls feel insecure about their skin growing up including me. Both of you are amazing ladies. Blessed with good communication skills.
I have the same feeling like you Amal. I think I don't care about what I wearing but actually I care about that. I just don't want to be someone else. I want to be myself but when I grow up, I saw a lot of things that I need to change like dress up style but that things make me uncomfortable in front others. It might be weird because everyone need to put their make up on to get their confident while I'll be more confident without make on my face. What ever is it, let yourself choose what you want in future.
Amal, thank you for speaking out about your insecurities. I can relate on so many things. Definitely my favorite episode of this podcast. Again, thank you DOPSTV, Iman and Amal for this wonderful podcast.
Iman is like me telling my inner- self (Amal) why I am behaving certain ways that I do sometimes. You don't really have to instantly understand it really, it can be a grey area of ourselves. Acknowledge those insecurities or unfavourable traits and gradually grow out of the box. We're changing in different ways, its ok.
So relatable! Glad to know that I'm not alone. If you guys are doing more podcast, I think these topics would also be great to talk about: 1. Importance of family and having a support system to share the good and the bad 2. Living overseas - homesickness (did you get them?), difference in culture, fasting during Ramadhan/celebrating Eid overseas, what experiences you gained, etc. 3. Tips on writing, how to capture readers and how you became a columnist 4. Thoughts on Manglish? Haha
Things that iman said about feeling judged by others, may stem from an anxiety disorder. You can go to therapy to check on yourself.. I was diagnosed with GAD too and I am still working on it, hope the all of you out there :))
when amal said then tell me how it sounded so sad it's ok amal you gonna snap out of it we love you either way miss you two so much hope dopstv can bring you both back
For me , i think i can relate to this so much , my live has been going ups and downs .. And i hope i can overcome all this one day and be a better person .. InsyaAllah
Most of us are insecure of things that most of us have but did a really good job of hiding it so others wont know when its actually happens to almost all of us and it makes us feels alienated and alone all the time while actually what we feel is the same. Although the reason is different . Get it? Plus , we strive to be as normal as we can so we can fit in with society and its tiring . What's normal anyway ?
*gasps in shock* *does a double take* Amal wore bolder, brighter colours (she looks gorgeous too!) Wow, I'd never have guessed that Iman felt that way.
I think it is more like "this is what I opt for" rather than insecurity. I get words for being berkira on how I spend my money. Some people (even family members) regard me as stingy. But now I think I have finally discovered the fine line between being stingy or being wise. Cewwah. And yasss just because I wear baju kurung cotton, doesn't mean I am outdated as a whole. Perhaps it is just the appearance, not my overall well-being. Chillll :)
people like Iman makes me really want to stay away... because this kind of people doesn't understand how it means to be feeling really negative, crippling and worse about themselves. i just want to stick with people like Amal.. she knews what's really wrong with the society haha. now i really understand why Amal used to tell Iman she wouldn't open so much to her sister... because... yeah.
Well yeah..this is a heavy topic duh..u cant just pop out things without mentally prepared urself..takut salah ckp or smth else..bcs everybody’s different
I’m kinda upset how wearing paisley patterned baju kurung with black bawal is considered an ‘oh my god...’ moment. I’ve been there but I never looked back and say to myself, ‘Wow what was I even thinking?’ Well what do you think about a plain black Jubah with plain black shawl? Different people will take it differently on themselves, but to receive such a response from other people - that’s how judgemental society is. BUT thinking back, since you two are close sisters, it doesn’t seem like a bad response. I mean, I’m just voicing out, putting myself in Amal’s shoes, but imagining if Iman ain’t my close person, i would kinda feel like, where is humanity? haha No hate though
Could it be the thing yg amal said she was insecure about was coming from her mind which was caused by comparing herself with her doll friends? Haha bcs she mention that she dont care about what she’s gonna wear bcs she is comfortable that way.. isn’t it?😂
i think Amal should seek professional help if it has come to a point where 'she drains herself out'. Not hating, just thought it would be the push you need if you were considering it.
Amal is an ICON. We have to protect her! She is a national treasure. PERIODT

Amal seems like an introvert, and iman is extrovert. Hehe, i love both of you, always excited seeing new uploads 😍

Imo self love is the courage in embracing and accepting all sides in ourselves including our weaknesses and it's also about forgiving ourselves

I stumbled upon this channel today and after watching a couple of videos I can tell you that I'm already captivated !!
iman personality is what i show to public but amal is my genuine :(
Discussions are relatable. I think most tanned-skin girls feel insecure about their skin growing up including me. Both of you are amazing ladies. Blessed with good communication skills.
I can relate myself so much to both of your situations..

N sometimes..it is soo hard for us to just show our empathetic feelings especially toward words
*gasps in shock* *does a double take* Amal wore bolder, brighter colours (she looks gorgeous too!)

Interesting video ^^
“I knewww you’re gonna say it... “ hehehhe funny 😄
Iman, let Amal be Amal.
I think Iman is just coming from a place of concern and just general curiosity.
exosonyeo agree with you.
انا احبك إيمان، فيديو رائع ،الله يحفظك
people like Iman makes me really want to stay away... because this kind of people doesn't understand how it means to be feeling really negative, crippling and worse about themselves. i just want to stick with people like Amal.. she knews what's really wrong with the society haha. now i really understand why Amal used to tell Iman she wouldn't open so much to her sister... because... yeah.

Amal is exactly like my sister. Haha. Not wanting to dress up is normal.
I thought amal is the big sister.
I’m kinda upset how wearing paisley patterned baju kurung with black bawal is considered an ‘oh my god...’ moment. I’ve been there but I never looked back and say to myself, ‘Wow what was I even thinking?’ Well what do you think about a plain black Jubah with plain black shawl?

Maybe amal can seek help for her negativity.
