    Colleen,
    Please don’t apologize to us for crying or feeling like you shouldn’t cry. It is so powerful to feel and have emotions and you deserve to showcase that. I’m so sorry that others have tried to bring you down, but you continue to stand and rise above it all. You deserve nothing but love & happiness.
    Thank you for continuing to advocate for mental health and being such a light to millions around the world. You are appreciated. 💛

    It’s so cool how the years go by so fast. This time last year Maisie and Wesley were finally home together. And Colleen was having a hard time with breast-feeding. But little did the family know, the twins would be putting little sentences together. And Flynn would be in love with bugs, and the color pink. Colleen will still be on tour. And Eric would be there for it all. I love your little family, and all the amazing things that will come in the future!!!

I want to let you know that I haven't been watching for long, I am not a mom and I'm single, and I still feel so connected to you and your content. THAT'S ALL YOU!! You are kind and genuine and I feel that. Your videos make me smile; I release stress from the day and just generally enjoy your humor, voice, stories, etc. Love to you and hope you feel all the positivity in your life.

    Colleen, as someone who is diagnosed with ADHD, struggles with 'people-pleasing' tendencies, and gets really emotional whenever someone has even the slightest criticism: I recently found out about rejection sensitive dysphoria. It turns out that feeling like you are (or actually being) criticised or rejected can impact you a lot worse emotionally and mentally than it would someone without RSD. And it is apparently very common in people with ADHD, especially in adults. I thought this might explain why these mean comments hurt so much.
    This is a quote I saved on my phone from an article I read: "It’s not that people with attention deficit disorder are wimps, or weak; it’s that the emotional response hurts them much more than it does people without the condition."
    Simple things like someone not liking the food I cooked have the potential to ruin my day...
    I cannot even imagine having to face nasty and mean comments on the daily, you are so strong❤️
    I know it won't take those comments and the pain away, but remember that for every negative comment there are at least a thousand of us who love you and even more importantly: your friends and family, the people who actually know you in real life and judge you on more than just seeing snippets of you in these videos, love you too.
    Take care, much love, Lisa❤️

I could talk for ages about my anxiety and depression or how your videos have gotten me through the hardest moments of my life thus far or all you’ve done to help me start to learn to accept myself and my flaws- but I’ll save that for another day. See you in Cleveland. Xoxo

    I started following you because we were both pregnant and had such challenging pregnancies - I never thought anyone would relate to me about how much I hated being pregnant and you helped me so so so much. And even more so now going through the motions of life, you truly better me as a person and I strive to be the mama you are. You inspire me in endless ways. I’m forever grateful I clicked on a vlog of you crying during your pregnancy and expressing true emotions. I really really hope I get the opportunity to go to your shows and meet you some day! ❤️

    Hi Colleen! I hear you apologize for crying a lot and I, like you, feel ashamed when I cry. I'm not sure what it is about society that makes us think that showing emotions makes us weak. Showing emotions makes us strong. It shows everyone that we can live with our heart on our sleeve, even in this cruel world, we can still be kind and vulnerable. Thank you for normalizing emotions. You are a light in this world. ❤️

    I can’t even put into words exactly how much you mean to me, Colleen. You were a light in the middle of my deepest dark; and when I needed it most you were the gateway to youtube for me to be able to “meet” so many other amazing humans through a screen, and that made me feel like I wasn’t alone (when I really really felt alone) Now I watch you and this amazing life you’ve created and I feel like my journey has walked so closely besides yours and continues to do so. You’re a brilliant positive in this huge world, and in millions of individuals’ worlds. We all love you SO much. ❤

I’ve always noticed that you two are so super hands on with your kids, and to each their own when it comes to parenting, but I love your guy’s parents style! For instance, Colleen the video you did for the twins, they love it, the box you made for Wes, the fact you enjoy (?!?) catching bugs with Flynn, the way you guys incorporate learning with fun things! It’s just so beyond refreshing to see such amazing kids and such a very beautiful family!!! Thanks for sharing, love y’all so very much!

    Life is confusing and hard, people are confusing and hard, but coming here and watching your videos helps me both laugh when I need to and cry when I need to. My past year in 2022 I suffered with an ED and being sent to treatment. Negative thoughts and my brain are still fused at times. Something that helps me is remembering that everyone has insecurities and flaws, it’s not just you. There’s no “right” way to live life, so live the way that makes you happy. I love you🤟

Imagine all your to-dos are glitters in a bottle of water. It's a lot of glitter to take care of at once. JUST FOCUS ON ONE PIECE OF GLITTER and take care of that task. All others will work out eventually when you have time. ☺️ Your videos have really helped me stay grounded and keep smiling thru the bad days.

    this week has been such a struggle for me personally, and i’m glad to know that all of us in the comments are going through it together. this week as i mentioned as been rough as my anxiety got really elevated as something had happened at work that caused me to go into an attack of some sort. it was hard for me to fall asleep that night but after i cried a little, i remembered hearing somewhere recently that i should listen to a song that i know all the lyrics to so i can sing along absent mindedly. this helped me alot and aided me going into sleep. i hope this finds someone who does need to hear this as well because it helped me tremendously. we’re getting through it, and youre doing great. this is an amazing community and nobody who genuinely cares about you, are going to judge you about crying. we are all human and its refreshing to see once in a while from content creators as well. much love to you all.

    Thank you for your videos they have really helped me with my mental health. I’m currently in college and struggling with depression because in my family we don’t really talk about mental health, but finally I’m getting the help I need. And you are the big reason for that. Thank you truly so much and lots of love to your beautiful family.

    I never leave comments either but ur videos bring me lots of comfort, it is my dream to be a mom one day and seeing you being real and sharing ur stories helps me learn and inspires me to one day be the best possible mom I can be! Love you ❤️ ur kids are so lucky to have a wonderful mom like you!

    Your videos are amazing. I love watching them because not only have I learned a lot about mental health (that could benefit me in coping better) but I have learned a lot more on breast feeding and I haven’t learned a lot about new borns throughout life either so your videos have been so beneficial. I don’t have any kids yet but I have definitely learned more that will help me in the future ❤️❤️ All love & support!!

    Colleen, I really hope you see this cuz I wanted to let you know how much you've helped me on this journey of mother hood. On January 3rd I had my first baby my baby boy and it wasn't exactly the ideal experience. I went in for my last ultrasound appointment and ended up being sent to the hospital, having an emergency c-section and my baby being in the nicu. Were home now and getting into the motion of our new life and I never could of imagined postpartum being this hard I've cried multiple times since giving birth felt alone and empty. But because of you sharing and being so open with us it gave me the faith to know things are gonna get better with time, and that I'm not alone in how I feel. Thank you so so much!!!!!!

    Let me tell you that the words you shared about making your brain accept kind thoughts really hit home. I only started seeing a therapist once my anxiety got really bad, but being in therapy made me realize that I really need to work on self-compassion. Sometimes I beat myself up about the fact that I have to work on that at all (counter-intuitive, I know) because I have a wonderful partner and a super busy life and so many things to be happy about, but this coming week I think I will really focus on being kind to myself (by eating food, resting, checking my negative thoughts, etc. even thought those things are really hard for me at the moment) because of your words tonight. Thank you, Colleen

    TT: Hi Colleen! I love sitting down “with you” at the end of the day and hearing about how you’re feeling. I currently feel like there’s nobody that I can talk to without feeling judged or disrespected, so to know that I can relieve myself even just by commenting is amazing. Thank you ❤

    Omg the adoration and pure joy KoKo gets from watching Wes play with markers just melts my little heart 🧡 I love all of you so much! I can agree to the “you’re my social life” a little too much Bc I feel like you are my bff and we have grown together and become mothers together all the things. I feel safe here and that isn’t a typical thing in the internet these days. Thank you for existing 🥰

Routine helps my anxiety and when i get in one of those tough moments your videos are definitely the ones i search for to put on. Keep being amazing ❤

    Coleen, when I go through my deep depression moments I always feel alone. I’ve had a horrible time the last couple of years (losing both kidneys and starting dialysis) and you and your family have helped me so much by you just being you. Thank you so very much for sharing your life openly. You have helped me so much and many others. Your fans are your family too so feel free to express yourself however you want because we’re all here for you!

    Hello sweet angel! I’m not big on commenting, as I typically watch your videos while I am doing schoolwork because you help me focus. However, I felt the need to tell you how much I admire your openness on topics like your struggles with anxiety and ADHD. I am a senior in high school, and have been diagnosed with the more severe of both. I have been a particularly long journey of healing my mind, body and soul, and you Colleen help me do just that. I relate to you in more ways than any regular person would think possible. Therefore, when I find myself in an ADHD pickle, or an overwhelming anxious moment I always find comfort in knowing that, you to- one of the most incredible, dedicated angels of a human being- experience the same struggles as I do. Thank you Colleen. XO💝

    This is 100% my social life. Being a mom is so lonely sometimes and PPD is so real. My son is now 6 and I'm just finally getting back to feeling human again. It takes time. But I was just telling my husband about how when I sit down to work (I'm self employed) I open up my computer to watch you while I work so I can have a friend keep me company, I find myself responding to you when you're asking questions or even freaking out when you are sharing something exciting, and 100% cry with you when you're upset and I wouldn't have it any other way! I wish I could hug you whenever you're upset because I just want you to know you're not alone and I'll always want to listen to you, crying, laughing and everything in between. ❤

    Colleen I remember a vlog (maybe from when you were pregnant with Flynn) where you said you just couldn’t read the comments because of how horrible they were and how bad they were for your mental health. Then I remember a vlog a few years later that you said you were so thankful for the safe space in your comments and how kind all your viewers are. You didn’t have to give your comment section a second chance, but you did. And it’s because of all of us here who love you and want to share it with you❤️ Try to remember that growth and know that in life there are bad days, just like bad comments but man does the good outweigh the bad. And I hope you see how many good comments outshine those bad. We love you❤ Take care of your mental health and know we will still be here sharing all the love!

    long time viewer, first time commenter. Ive watched every vlog since march 2020 and its the best thing to have come out of quarantine. When I have bad days and when im struggling with my emotions, the vlog Is always something I can look forward to. I do feel like we are all friends, even when most of us have never interacted. Just need to say thank you. When the emotions get too much, sometimes a freshly baked cookie and the daily vlog does the world of good.

    It breaks my heart to hear how hard it is for you to even THINK a positive thoughts about yourself! I think you are amazing and so brave Colleen! My husband keeps telling me “I don’t understand why you watch her, you act like you know her but you don’t”
    THE AUDACITY!!
    We all know you because you share so openly. You make all of us feel like your besties. THAT alone says how special you are. Chin up bestie ❤

    This is awesome to relate to others because we all go through similar experiences. For me to keep balance in my head and thoughts, a balance of ego vs. self loathing is u tell myself things. Like I might not be the prettiest but I’m pretty, I’m not the smartest but I’m smart with some things, I’m not the most creative but I’m creative etc. and so on.

    I just went through a job loss and am experiencing the same thing that was described here. It's a battle, trying to think positively and I think this stems from our parents and maybe how they viewed themselves in front of us. It's a *major* struggle. I'm so glad this was brought up.

    I am a Momma Bear, like you.
    I struggled with extreme postpartum with a very sick baby, mostly alone. My husband worked days and would come home at around 11pm and help through the nights with feedings. I only wish I would've had you to watch because what you're doing now would've helped me to get through. It makes me very thankful watching you, knowing that you're there for all of the other moms and dad's out there and for people just struggling.
    My daughter is now seventeen and we both struggle with depression and anxiety, so thank you for being YOU.❤️
