    I have over 2150 hours on the same island and it’s still not complete so I cannot emphasize how much I understand you and also could never do this in a million years

    Your unexpected monologue at the end fully broke the floodgates for me... to make a long story short, I've been trying to finish my BA thesis for nearly two years now but just keep getting stuck in the same sucky cycle of anxiety over not making any progress on it, all because I keep getting in my head about not being able to do my chosen subject (that I care deeply about) justice.
    At this point I'm less than two weeks away from the last possible deadline they were willing to grant me yet another extension for, and I haven't even touched the damn thing since I missed the previous deadline back in the beginning of august. Been trying to drown the anxious part of my brain out by jumping from one media based hyperfixation to the next, ignoring the looming threat of my mental health struggles finally getting me kicked out of uni for good. At some point it became less about the project itself, and more about proving to myself that I was a worthwhile person. That all of these years of hard work haven't all been for nothing. That despite my late diagnosed ADHD that I've yet to really get a handle on, and my life-long struggles with depression, I could still make it through school with decent grades and become the damn good therapist I know I could be, and this thesis would be The Thing that proves it to both myself and the world. Despite the fact I would still need to get my masters, and that nobody cares about your BA-thesis once you're done with uni.
    One of the mantras that used to get me through many a last minute all-nighter back in high-school was "It doesn't have to be good, it just needs to be," which I must have lost sight of somewhere along the way. Hearing it all spelled out from another person who understands, along with a reminder that ultimately none of this will matter to anyone but me, and that it's okay to just bullshit your way through, felt like just what I needed to hear. I still don't know if I'll manage to finish it before the deadline, but I think I might finally be able to just let go of my unnecessarily high expectations for a little while and give it a shot. Thank you!

      I'm a year late and you will probably never see this, but here's trying . . . did you pull it off and hit the deadline? Still pursuing therapy higher education or you running in a new direction?

    I actually wanted to start posing on this account and the ending you gave us legitimately helped me realize that just because I said I would start posting and then didnt end up doing that as consistently as I wanted to doesnt mean I cant keep posting every once in a while, everyday or even none at all. Thank you because I have been FIGHTING myself to play the game even when I dont want to. The only reason I made my channel is because I want to learn how to edit videos and because I love Animal Crossing. Two Birds. One Stone. Thanks again. I think Ill start dealing with my bullshit now :D

    I like restarting a lot especially since my current island has the worst native flower in my opinion, a small peninsula, and a short dock. While I’m happy with everything else I also enjoy trying to hunt for the perfect starter island.

    salem in their ro ramdin era ?! i appreciate this video so much (and the builds you did!! they look so good!). i’ve been struggling so much with this loss of expectations in all areas of my life to the point where i cant even relax with video games out of fear i’ll fuck them up too. it’s a horrible feeling. but, if it means anything at all, your videos have been one of my few safe places recently and i cannot begin to thank you enough for that. you are genuinely one of my favorite creators on this website, regardless of what type of content you create. please take care of yourself!!
    also i love the send this to your friends so they get video essayed image. i did in fact send it to my friends and they were soooo video essayed i got them so good

    Salem mood on the inability to commit to a design. I can design from imagination a little bit without pinterest and I do enjoy designing (I use pinterest and google for patterns though), but I get my inspiration from island tours and then go "ooh there's a fun idea" then start and do genuinely design from my own brain till I have like 2 fleshed out well designed areas and then I abandon it cause low mental energy it's too much work I run out of ideas and then my island turns into flower hell for the billionth time and then i just wanna reset 😔 This is why I currently have a really great entrance to a magic like kingdom academy thing and a great pirate dock where red is and then some bs at the campsite some half designed houses and then burned out massively and it sits unfinished as I play Violet and debate resetting my second island cause I don't wanna lose the progress on this one but also am sick of this one, and the mania over a new idea is a really big problem for me too.

      well that and I ground my way through Twisted Wonderland and Pocket Camp to ignore ACNH and am sitting pretty at level 66 with lv 62 characters cause I can run Twisted in the background at work but not animal crossing and that is also why my pocket camp (at the detriment of my wallet) looks WAY better than my acnh islands
