    Three things, 1) sorry it's choppy - I am outta practice. 2) Sorry for the random noises. 3) I made this video before a surprise birthday party that happened this past weekend, so having that happen.... I would love to add more to this. x

      dont worry about it lady(yes your a lady now no longer a girl), 40 is next, and you'll either get there slowly and enjoy the road, or time flies by quickly. just remember as long as you do the things in life you want to do then at the end you wont have anything to regret.
      we all learn what we need along the way, just make sure your happy

    As an old lady of 50 years now...! I can tell you, in my experience, your 30s is when you finally figure out fully and settle into who you are and what you want and embrace it fully. Happy Birthday, Rebecca! Welcome to your 3rd decade. :)

      I think it's technically 4th decade? 1st - 0-9, 2nd 10-19, 3rd 20-29. Kinda like with centuries. It's ahead one.

      I had that happen in the time span of a few days.. I was exited to go back to work and earn more money to put towards getting my own place again.. Then my bipolar was like: No, let's get really sad and anxious and on the verge of depression! 🙄😤🤬

    Having been watching you since 2012 this is amazing. When you show the older clips I think I remember - I was there. Your videos mark moments in your life but also your videos resonated with me, so I remember who I was/how I felt when I watched them too...
    You're a living archive! You're fantastic. Thank you for what you do.

    When I met you I was struggling with so many health problems, I popped in to see you at lush with a tube on my face and a letter in hand, and you offered me such kindness. At the time, I didn't know how my health was going to go, and if I was going to see my next birthday at all.
    That was 8 years ago, I'm turning 25 next week. :) Birthdays are bittersweet, but I'm so glad you're still here. That one positive interaction all those years ago is a bright spark in a tough time for me, and I'm still so thankful you took the time to say hello.
    Congratulations, happy birthday, and good luck on your new adventure ♥️

  • @WorldNews92
    @WorldNews92 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    As someone who also suffered mentally their entire adult life, and thought making it to 27 was hard (and had the nicety of my 30th being cancelled at the height of the pandemic), I really want to thank you for saying "I'm grateful I made to 30". Like you I thought the exact same thing growing up, that I'd never make it that far. And even when the worst possible thing that could happen did happen when I turned 30 (i.e. a global pandemic and lockdown), I survived, and I'm glad I did. Life might not necessarily get better as we get older, but it's still worth it once we get through the worst. Your videos are fantastic as always.

  • @kayleeanastasi3704

    This really touched my heart and I believe God sent me to this video. I grew up watching your videos and as a 27 year old woman who feels INCREDIBLY behind, I have to say YOU ARE DOING SO BEAUTIFULLY. You look ABSOLUTELY gorgeous and are certain of yourself. I'm so HAPPY YOU'RE HERE! I mean that. We're all just trying to figure things out and do well why we're getting along. Please don't stop pushing forward!

    @sophia3579 ปีที่แล้ว

    Dress rehearsals are good.. I felt the same. My life started basically after my 30s. At 42 I'm still pushing on, and I'm happier now because of all the 20s and 30s stuff.. I matured a lot after 36, and still going. I wasn't a wild child or anything like that, but got better at reacting and handling things as they came along instead of falling apart as I used to. But I wouldn't have been able to handle any of it if I hadn't fallen apart a few times first.. so it's all good. I wish you the best. Happy happy birthday!

    Hi, Beckie! Thank you for uploading this video. I really appreciated in delight the snippets from your old videos. I really used to watch them over and over again, as they got me through my very rough teenage years. So much so that I had some of them memorised word for word. 😅 I am happy to see you be here, now 30 and having come such a long way. Here's to the next 30🥂 I wish you all the happiness in the world 🎊🎉

  • @ThatPotterGuy
    @ThatPotterGuy ปีที่แล้ว

    Having been a part (a be it a tiiiiiiiny one) of this journey, or at least having followed your journey along via here and other social media, I'm so happy and proud at how far you've come.
    I remember finding your channel while searching for videos from the first SiTC and subscribing IMMEDIATELY not only from having similar interests, but more importantly because of the type of person you were. I was fortunate enough to then hangout with you and a few others at SiTC the following year and you were nothing short of humble, kind, and welcoming.
    I've never forgotten the struggles you've shared with us, and how you've dealt with them with a fierce determination (even if it hasn't seemed so at the time.) I've never had any doubt that you'd make it this far. Through familial losses, college/uni issues, relationship ups and downs, teaching us about trichotillomania even when it's at it's worst, and through crisis of faith, you've never shied away from being open and honest about things.
    You inspire me, and make me feel humble, and you always have. It still amazes me that after YEARS, you still remember who I am, and for that I will always be grateful.

  • @Tabbiecat
    @Tabbiecat ปีที่แล้ว

    It makes me really happy to see you still updating your channel and talking about life in such an honest and vulnerable way.
    I'm a long time viewer now; I started watching your videos around the time I started uni, when you were I think at film school. I'm a few years younger so watching you and relating to you is something I've found helpful; the way you show stages in life feels so real and true to the 'normal' myself and people I know experience, when what others with a following online choose to share often feels more remote. Not to seem parasocial in a weird way but i do in a sense feel like I know you, kind of similar to how I feel when I watch the 7 Up series which I'm kind of obsessed with - if you haven't already I think you might really like watching it.
    I turned 27 a couple of months ago and have been thinking a fair bit recently about the big 30 and what I'd like to have done by then, in the context of some really good things that have happened in my 20s, big life developments.
    As someone who has also had a lot of social struggles and been very unsure in terms of trying to start a career and balance things in life which seem routine for others but for some of us can feel overwhelming, it's nice to see a kind of kindred spirit getting on in the world, moving forwards and sharing your journey.
    Wishing you all the best luck and happiness for this year Rebecca

  • @thaliawalia

    Happy Birthday 💗 Congratulations on making it to 30. It really can’t be understated. My cousin died last year at 23. It always felt touch and go, just hoping she’d make it another few months, to the next year, and then it suddenly caught up. I’m so glad and grateful that you’ve made it here (albeit as a stranger). I’ll be 25 next year, hitting another milestone, and it’s helpful to remember what you said, that it’s okay to be where we are.

    I'm so glad to have found your videos again. Started watching you back in the early 2010s, and watching your journey with mental health made me feel seen before I even knew what was going on with myself. I'm a couple years from 30, so it's neat to see how we (parasocially of course) have ended up at different places than our 20s. Suffice it to say, I've enjoyed the sporadic appearances again :)

    Happy belated birthday! It has been a while since I've watched your videos and I wanted to see what you've been up to. Your videos have always been very comforting to me. I think you introduced me to trichotillomania, LUSH, and so many other things. Im very proud of you and grateful that you've documented and shared so much of your life with us. You've been so brave and interesting and honest. I was a pre teen when I found your videos and I was so amazed at seeing how you created such creative videos at such a young age. And I was amazed at seeing you live through your twenties, and I did aspire to live like you. You are very poetic and thoughtful and I just love hearing from you. Thank you for still youtubing and I wish you very well.

    I'm grateful you made it to thirty as well! I'm a little more than a decade older than you, and I remember back when you made videos about turning 20/21 and feeling so old, when I my own life didn't even really feel like it got started until I was in my late twenties... Really glad to see you in a better place about the aging process now. May you thrive in the decade to come!

  • @ignite137
    @ignite137 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow amazing...Happy birthday Rebecca! I think it's been around 10 years ago when I subscribed to your channel. Your videos helped me how to live through struggle, but still not forget the small happy things in life. Especially to hear this from the opposite sexe, was really helpful.
    I had/have my own issues and journey as an HSP person. I'm a bit older than you. And yes, when you grow older, you also learn more and grow as a person. My goal is to become the best version of me. My faith also helps me to remind me of this.. All the best ❤

    Happy birthday Rebecca! Welcome to the 30 club🎉! I was terrified of turning 30, and then I had a co worker tell me the thirties are when you become more resolute (or I guess steadfast). That gave me comfort and now I am 2 years from 40 and not afraid of the next big milestone.

    On the topic - I was so sure I wouldn't survive past 27 and yet here I am. I'll be 30 at the end of March and I don't know how I survived. All I know is that University was the worst part of my life and I think you would agree. My mental health has gone up so much since I stopped being in constant anxiety and panic over deadlines and grades. It took me until 27 to finish my masters degree but I got there in the end.
    It was so lovely seeing you and hearing your voice again. :)

I've been here through the creation of your trichjournal channel, and I'm sticking around as long as you are. Im glad you've made it this far and have made it through all your health issues.

    glad to hear from you again Becky. I know these past couple years have been rough but I'm glad to see you doing okay. I never lived with a " I probably won't make it to X age" thought, but I know it must be tough to be so much further into life than you thought you'd go and be able to smile and enjoy a party with your family. My birthday was on the 12th and now at 26 I feel the most lost and lonely I've felt in a while, but I got people who love me and have my back, I feel like that's all we need to make it through.
    Enough shpeal, Happy BIG 3-O Hope the years keep bringing you lots of sunshine and ways to cope with the health stuff that comes with this body we inhabit through life.

    You were the first TH-camr I ever discovered when I got my first computer, I was 13 and I think you must of been 17 (I was born in 96)
    I remember watching your new years resolutions video for 2010 like it was yesterday and same with your first video about Tritch (if I've spelt that correctly), i even did a class talk on it to raise awareness!
    It feels like I've grown up with you, you've always been around in a way, I've been through your highs and lows but yet we have never met!
    I can definitely say 18 year old you would be very proud right now that you made it this far!
    Still trying to wrap my head head round the fact that you are 30 now 🤯
    Sending lots of hugs from Scotland 🥰

    Congrats and many blessings! I’ve been watching you from Georgia then Louisiana for about 6 years. I think you’re brilliant. Keep sharing the love/light only you can offer!!

You make other mistakes, and when you have made all the mistakes you possibly can without drowning - and some of them many times over - what do you find? That you can swim? Well - life is just the same as learning to swim! Do not be afraid of making mistakes, for there is no other way of learning how to live!”

    life speeds up as you get older my 30s and 40s are just a blur and next year i'm 50. I may just blink for a minute and realise i'm 70. don't forget to live our life it can seem very short and no one knows when they will die until they are dying. hoped you had a very Happy Birthday. plus some people never realise what they have achieved in their live until they start looking at what they did with their lives at the end.

    Happy belated B'Day Rebecca.
    11 years ago I was so worried about you, and now - well, look at yourself, you've made it 🙂
    Upwards and onwards!

    I know exactly how you feel, and I reached my 60s in August! I didn't realise I was Autistic till 58, and it is still not a formal diagnosis - there's no point as I have fumbled my way through life this far and I am confident that I can manage through my remaining years without any special help. I think we all look back and think how it could have been if only.... Thankfully your first day in your thirties is only one day after your last in your twenties, and that's the way to take life, one day at a time.
    I don't know you other than what you share on YT, but what I see is somebody doing substantially better than I was in my early thirties, and at least you have a diagnosis and, consequently, an understanding of how you are different; role with that. Your art and videography skills are outstanding, make the most of them and stop comparing yourself to others. I would bet a pound to a penny that there are hundreds, if not thousands of NT thirtysomethings out here who look on you enviously. You have a lot there, learn to recognise it, and learn to be thankful for it too! ;-) God bless.

    Started watching you about 5 or so years ago. We've both grown so much. I'll be 30 in just a couple years. It seems so scary thinking about entering a new decade of life. My 20s have been so difficult and scary. I'm ready to really settle in and get comfortable. I hope more time and maturity give me just that.

    The odd thing about turning 30 is that there seems to be this expectation of getting serious about life and have your life path chosen.
    I can honestly tell you I'm 33, married with 2 kids and still feel like a scared little child playing pretend. I'm a wife and a mother but I feel like a fraud. Also 🥳HAPPY BIRTHDAY🎂

      You're not a fraud - you're human! None of us have been along this path before and, to be honest, we are all a little scared. ;-)

    I felt the same way at 21, I didn't expect to hit 18 but it didn't really dawn on me that I was a conscious human capable of choices till later on.
    "It's okay to be where I am based on the journey I've had" is such a beautiful way of phrasing that feeling.
