Mark, we are biologically wired to seek connection, connection and community=safety to us humans. So no matter how much work you do, being hurt and afraid when you are rejected is normal and sometimes even healthy. Don’t beat yourself up. ❤
A quote I like is ‘the people who mind, don’t matter and the people who matter, don’t mind’ 🥰 basically be yourself and the right people will love you anyway
Thanks for being vulnerable with us- it’s part of being human and feeling our feelings! Rejection is so hard when all we want is to connect and be accepted. Doesn’t mean you’re worthless, those people, that job, etc just weren’t meant for you. ❤
I turned 50 this year and have had so many rejections and the dysphoria that comes with it, BUT I’ve turned it around and realised I don’t want to be accepted by those people who’ve rejected me. Because my close friends accept me for who I am; I’ve let go of a lot this year and emerged a lot happier and focused on what and who I DO want to be accepted by. Loving your vlogs Mark ❤
Love these quotes! Part of my ADHD is rejection sensitive dysphoria. It feels so painful to be rejected and impacts me so much. Anytime I’m down on myself I made two lists: 1 list of lies (all the negative things I’m thinking about myself) and another list of truths (positive things about myself) and that helps so much.
Rejection scares me so much, all I want is to be accepted, wanted, loved and appreciated. Mark, life is so hard sometimes but that’s okay and you’re allowed to feel ❤
not me sorting MY monica's closet all day and losing motivation... just to sit down and watch this video and you calling me out!!!! hahahahahha love you Mark! gonna sort out my things now! xx
My husband and I both are constantly like HOW. IS. MARK. SINGLE!!! You are hilarious, good looking, caring… legit the whole package. But someone is literally going to be so happy that it didn’t work out for you with the others, and you will be too. Love you!! 🤍🤍
really appreciated you talking about rejection mark. told a guy how i felt about him for the first time for me, thinking he was the same and he walked away mid convo. starting to feel much better about it now but it was an upsetting few days.
You really are so amazing to open up to us all ❤ thank you so much ❤️ you have no idea how much you’ve helped me realise I am not on my own and this community on this channel is just incredible ❤
I love you sharing your experience and wisdom concerning rejection. You have no idea, how relevant it is for me right now. Thank you for being so vulnerable and relatable, it really makes a difference 💗
Wow wow wow I can’t believe you’re talking about this today. Rejection has been a big thing for me recently so thank you for being so so open as always
Whoever rejects you is another way the universe weeding out the losers, the wrong path. It’s actually a blessing. It is hard to think about it at the time, but you are strong enough to not let it get You down. Look forward to the future because you have an amazing event coming up and that was just a bump in the road. You are an amazing, real, smart, lovely man who is just heading towards success down the road❤❤ YOU HAVE THIS SWEETHEART!!😊
I’m so sorry you’re feeling down lately, I know how you feel I get feeling of sadness and anxiety a lot. I’m glad that you can talk about it now and that is important. You are not alone. Thank you for always speaking about mental health. ❤❤❤❤
Mark you are such a pure and special soul and every person who gets to be a part of your life is so so lucky❤️ you always manage to brighten up the gloomiest of days and we love you 🌈💕 never stop being you!
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and experiences on anxiety and rejection. This is something that sits really deeply with me too, and hearing your vulnerabilities around the same thing was really refreshing and comforting. ❤❤❤
Your video yesterday matched so much to my current battles with struggles as I am entering my final year of university. Thank you for being your authentic self and being so open. It really helps to know you aren't alone sometimes ❤
Aw Mark! My husband has RSD (rejection sensitive dysphoria) and it can get really intense for him! Thank you for sharing your experiences with us- the good AND not so good 🧡
I always say the strongest people get the hardest lessons because we will eventually find the light at the end of the tunnel and learn from that lesson and become a stronger person. It’s also one lesson closer to a happy ending! Ive been wronged so many times by boys ugh lol but im so proud of the person i am today and even though it sucked at the time it’s definitely made me a better person and made me realize what I deserve and it’s okay to say no and protect your peace, love you lots xxx
There’s so many little funny moments in this video, can’t remember half of them but I found it funny how seriously he said that the family were eating crème eggs in his dream, and when he said “if I’m ever considered being a conductor”
I feel rejection very strongly, so I get you❤ I have avoidant personality disorder and BPD, and one of the most common triggers are rejection. I'm very anxious around people because off the fear off being rejected, so I'm totally on board with your feelings and thoughts❤ It's really nice to hear it from someone else, that your not the only one with those thoughts. So thank you for that, and thank you for you❤ A last thing if you read this I just want to say that you're an amazing person, I'm always smiling and laughing when I watch your videos, even on the bad days, so thank you for that🥰 Love you Mark❤
Thank you so much for speaking about rejection mark. It's been such a theme in my life and every time I'm triggered it by it, it immediately makes me cry uncontrollably and i don't know why. So i relate so much ❤
i rarely comment but have really felt like i have wanted throughout vlogtober. firstly, i wanted to thank you for promoting your mindset and outlook on life, i don't think you understand completely how many people you are silently helping when you include even a two second clip of you saying something so uplifting and comforting. last year (oct-feb) was the worst year for my mental health and i have been enveloped in apprehension and have been desperately holding onto every small thing that brings me joy and comfort to help aid my mental health and truly vlogtober has been helping me so so much you have no idea; just watching the variety of you dealing with the mundane and also exciting moments and speaking about your personal experiences has been so so motivating and uplifting for me and it has truly made me feel so comforted and i know it's quite a parasocial thing but every time you say a variation of 'im always here for you' genuinely feels like you're speaking directly to each and every one of us and its such a small thing but it really helps remind me that i can and will be ok even if i have to go through it alone again. your kindness, authenticity and genuine nature is (unfortunately) such a rarity and i am beyond thankful you choose to share that with us. you have built such a beautiful connection with the community and i truly hope you know how much you are helping people with just sharing your day and what's on your mind. as someone who has been watching for years, i'm so proud of you and how far you've come and how content you seem with yourself, its so inspiring to those of us who are trying to navigate their early 20s !! love you lots and always wishing you the best and am thoroughly enjoying vlogtober !!
Omg side note Mark my friend does dream interpretations and they’re also a fan of yours… if you ever need my friend would be happy to help you with that!!
You have become my comfort you tuber. These vlogs have cheered up these dark mornings . I have SAD and getting up for work has started being a challenge but knowing i have these to watch helps. Ps i have such a slapstick comedy humour and the wizard hat hitting you in the face made me laugh so hard...sorry!
It sounds like rejection is triggering for you. So maybe the rejection you’re facing in the current moment wouldn’t normally provoke as big as an emotional reaction as it has been this year. However, since the feeling of rejection is triggering you to moments in the past where you also felt rejected it feels more overwhelming. Thinking of you and hoping you are able to give yourself grace while you work through those moments ❤
I’ve talked myself out of so many situations because of my fear of rejection. It’s something I’ve struggled with immensely for majority of my life. I go through the same negative self talk of not being good enough, not lovable etc. that I just rather not put myself out there. It’s a struggle.
I feel compelled to comment on this video bc it takes a lot of courage to be as vulnerable as you were! Thank you for sharing a side of your life that we don't always see...I often look to your videos and insta for my own source of motivation whenever I'm feeling down. Keep shining your light!
Bless you mark you are truly a genuine soul I so feel for you as a fellow libra like you I also feel so deeply love so deeply and we just want our scales balanced and life just isn't sometimes and that's why we find it so hard.
Fellow libra here!! I could talk to you all day about dreams, rejection, and all deep topics. Look up some of the main points of your dream. Antyflo is a great one. My dreams have been a journey in themselves ❤
Considering I literally felt rejection an hour before I watched this video I’ve never felt so seen by you and I wasn’t ready for the advice but I do need it ❤ It happens to the best of us and like that quote said it’s so so important not to reject yourself ❤ Thank you for talking about the hard subjects I struggle to talk about makes us all feel less alone Love you lots ❤
I love you so much mark you help me so much everyday through really tough days I struggle with communication and social situations due to my disability and have been bullied due to this and it makes me feel not accepted and upset/ rejected by others in school etc ! Your amazing mark thank you so much for doing your vlogs ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Mark im with you on the anxiety/rejection/taking everything so personally because I’ve been the same. My anxiety is so weird atm, I don’t know why but it’s like I have been wondering “how does Mark always be positive/handle this and I can’t handle it?” so it’s nice to know that you go through it too!
Just remember this: when you love yourself- like really love yourself and who you are- it’s hard to understand why someone else wouldn’t . Romantically or otherwise.
On the sleep thing you mention at the beginning, I heard on a podcast that we have roughly 90 minute sleep cycles where we go from light sleep to rem sleep and if you wake up during light sleep you will feel more awake and it will be harder to go back to sleep and the opposite for rem sleep. If you wake up feeling wide awake at 4am it doesnt necessarily mean you got enough sleep, it could just mean you were in a lighter stage of sleep.
Rejection is often part of the journey to success. Some of the most successful people faced numerous rejections before achieving their goals. The key is to stay persistent and not let rejection stop you from trying again.
I wonder if the more times you are rejected by something or someone, it sort of gets heavier in your mind? I don’t know just a thought. Sending lots of love. You’re enough. We love you. You’re amazing ❤
Mark… this couldn’t have come at a more perfect time. I am currently going to be auditioning for acting and I have imposter syndrome because I know I don’t have a lot of experience. BUT it is my passion and I am excited to just try. The reminder that rejection is just a redirection to what your right path is so important remember. Especially when you are under pressure when taking a chance on yourself. That rejection can be so devastating but shifting your mindset is what makes it all worth the journey. LOVE YOU MARK !!
When mark was talking about his dream it made me think of something. I’d love if videos of people talking about there dreams got put on tiktok but never said it was a dream, so it basically sounds like there just telling a story and then you realise it was a dresm
Mark you really are such an amazing and special person, you always bring me so much comfort and make me feel better about myself, as you share similar challenges. I can relate in many ways, I find your honesty so refreshing and all your quirks so endearing, you are such a beautiful soul, don't you go changing because there will only ever be one YOU ❤Sending blessings your way and I hope you have an amazing birthday on friday! XXXXXXXXXXX
I really feel the same these last days human beings indeed are cabled in a way it's not bearable to feel isolated in a group and memory in life is sometimes tricky but you have enough social kills now, no doubt, to overcome those bad days and move forward
Your loved by everyone and you love yourself, everyone has down days and we all have a positive outcome, I always feel like that all the time and I tell myself being rejected is a good thing it gives me more time to be a better person to be accepted.. but never feel ashamed or low about rejection it's normal, just treat yourself to pamper when you feel low bwcause that's how I treat myself and I feel alot better but I haven't been able due to having surgery, it knocked me down but to know my body needed to get better and there's no other way as I've tried everything eles that was the only outcome, I still try and treat myself but that been watching halloween films and enjoying the life I've been living. But you have sparkles so never let you sparkles fall❤
I feel this rejection pain with my ADHD, it's something that really impacts me. It may be worth looking into neurodivergence more- its something that has helped me care for my brain a bit more x
Mark, can you and Zoe do another ASOS shop for each other? I was watching that old video the other day and was so impressed at the pieces you picked out. You have great taste!
Also, I can relate so, so much to your battles with rejection. I have been in the same shoes this year, too. I always feel as though I feel so deeply, and it can become so unbearable... love you, Mark! You are an incredible person inside and out. Keep shining🌟
Hi Mark, I'm waiting to be assessed for adhd and my ears perked up when you mentioned it the other day. With adhd Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria is very common, it can be over big things but also really small inconsequential things. So looking into that may help you when you're looking to review things :)
Mark. Your one in a million. You are you love you for who you are you don't need ANYONE to live your life and be happy. Those who reject you or turn their backs on you well let's be honest it's their loss because you're awesome and they're missing out on so much. Relationships are so hard so even after you've kissed thousands of frogs to find your Prince it's not going to be all plain sailing loving someone and living with them is a whole different ball game mate. AnywY you've read some fantastic inspirational quotes and they all apply. I've seen Joe's vlog of you all last night as it is now and I was so good and scary at that place I'm thankful I'm on a phone and not there lol As for you cupboard guy my whole house is like that lol I clear one out and put into another one lol however you insipired me to fold some laundry so thank you. I know I don't know you personally and just on here but you come across and seem to be a really honest kind and loving guy just believe in you you are amazing and you are worthy just be you because you are ENOUGH. Take care Mark I'm looking forward to later and your new vlog. X
I got fired in June and been struggling to find a job since, rejection became my absolute nightmare! I’m working my first shifts at the grocery store and I’m still anxious about being fired after every shift - it’s irrational but so real at the same time…
We call them cheese cakes too! God knows why they are named that haha. On a serious note maybe your feelings on rejection are so much worse this year as you are grieving. When someone close dies young we get reminded how short life can be, therefore it can feel that time is running out. Rejection can feel like the situation was time wasted. Idk just how i feel sometimes.
I just had to reach out after hearing you talk about feeling sensitive to rejection. I know you’ve often spoken about your brain working in a unique way, and I wasn’t sure if you thought potentially you might have some ADHD like tendencies? (Not me trying to diagnose btw) But as a proud ADHD girlie 👑 I’ve learned about something called Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria - it’s worth a Google! But many ADHD’ers or highly sensitive people experience this, and it’s such a tough thing to experience as it can be almost physically painful. Sending love ❤ you’re doing amazing sweetie xo
Your amazing ive got a life limiting genetic condtion and lately with all my pain and injury ive got has been causing my anxiety to be high and have had a couple of panic attacks recently out of no where my partner been amazing ive been wanting to say love you to him for ages now but due to my past and being with abusive people i get scared to say love you and be certain way i know he loves me so much tho doesnt help when your an over thinker either i recently opened up to him about im overthinkkng and he was really supportive and just told me to stop. Have the best time mark at tulley my carer went last week she said it was amazing but regection can be so had at times but jts ok sometimes to have it isnt it.💖thanks for making awesome vlogs when i saw post on walkmans ive got one still and jt works gutted had to get rid of my vhs player it was my great aunts but died a couple years ago keep well and safe
Marrrkk......your disney pride mug is balancing a bit precariously ontop of the cupboard lol.......move it before it falls and smashes 😂 xx Side note : when you started saying you were going to tully's but wont film it, i was like "noooooooo" then u said that wasnt your zoo and mark trip .......and all was right with the world lol xxx
Hey Mark, I normally never comment on videos but wanted to talk about Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) which is when you experience severe emotional pain because of a failure or feeling rejected. It might be that. ❤ I think it's worth doing some more reading.
If u feel interested to know about ur dream, a common dream related to ur descriptions are the dream that ur teeth are falling out! (2 different meanings which u can research ur reason why u r having these signs during sleep.) if u find sources from psychology they mostly have already done tests and analysis.
Hi mark, fellow October 18 birthday here!! Just wanted to wish you a very happy birthday tomorrow 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤ I’ll have a drink for you if you have one for me 😊
Hey Mark, have you ever been diagnosed with adhd...? I have it, and a huge part of it is something called 'rejection sensitive dysphoria', we experience rejection of any kind on a whole other level compared to normies! i highly suggest looking it up to see if it resounds with you. When i realised my rejection issues were down to that, it was a huuuuuge weight off my mind, believe me!!
Mark, we are biologically wired to seek connection, connection and community=safety to us humans. So no matter how much work you do, being hurt and afraid when you are rejected is normal and sometimes even healthy. Don’t beat yourself up. ❤
This is such a comforting comment 🥺
@@CorLeonis17 ❤️❤️❤️
“Rejection is protection and redirection” the best quote❤️
Love this 😍
A quote I like is ‘the people who mind, don’t matter and the people who matter, don’t mind’ 🥰 basically be yourself and the right people will love you anyway

This!! I have just said the same!
Yes! I was thinking this the whole time he was talking about it. Rejection-sensitive dysphoria is awful 😢
I have the worst rejection sensitivity dysphoria and could never understand why until I was diagnosed with adhd. Mark has so many traits of adhd
Rejection scares me so much, all I want is to be accepted, wanted, loved and appreciated. Mark, life is so hard sometimes but that’s okay and you’re allowed to feel ❤
not me sorting MY monica's closet all day and losing motivation... just to sit down and watch this video and you calling me out!!!! hahahahahha love you Mark! gonna sort out my things now! xx

Literally, he easily could be helped

Vlogtober makes me so happy!! Sending lots of love
Something I've realised I suffer from...I used to get very clingy as I was scared people will leave. Its gotten better as I've got older
Your loved by everyone and you love yourself, everyone has down days and we all have a positive outcome, I always feel like that all the time and I tell myself being rejected is a good thing it gives me more time to be a better person to be accepted.. but never feel ashamed or low about rejection it's normal, just treat yourself to pamper when you feel low bwcause that's how I treat myself and I feel alot better but I haven't been able due to having surgery, it knocked me down but to know my body needed to get better and there's no other way as I've tried everything eles that was the only outcome, I still try and treat myself but that been watching halloween films and enjoying the life I've been living.

I feel this rejection pain with my ADHD, it's something that really impacts me. It may be worth looking into neurodivergence more- its something that has helped me care for my brain a bit more x
Mark, can you and Zoe do another ASOS shop for each other? I was watching that old video the other day and was so impressed at the pieces you picked out. You have great taste!
Also, I can relate so, so much to your battles with rejection. I have been in the same shoes this year, too. I always feel as though I feel so deeply, and it can become so unbearable... love you, Mark! You are an incredible person inside and out. Keep shining🌟
Random but So excited for when you eventually get a house and decorate it!
Hi Mark, I'm waiting to be assessed for adhd and my ears perked up when you mentioned it the other day. With adhd Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria is very common, it can be over big things but also really small inconsequential things. So looking into that may help you when you're looking to review things :)
Mark, I love you so much. You make my October the best)
Loving todays vlogtober. Looking forward to your tulleys with Zoe vlog. I’ve got a scareground this Saturday and one next Saturday I can’t wait x
Loving the vlogtober vlogs 🩷🩷
Mark. Your one in a million. You are you love you for who you are you don't need ANYONE to live your life and be happy. Those who reject you or turn their backs on you well let's be honest it's their loss because you're awesome and they're missing out on so much.
Relationships are so hard so even after you've kissed thousands of frogs to find your Prince it's not going to be all plain sailing loving someone and living with them is a whole different ball game mate.
AnywY you've read some fantastic inspirational quotes and they all apply.
I've seen Joe's vlog of you all last night as it is now and I was so good and scary at that place I'm thankful I'm on a phone and not there lol
As for you cupboard guy my whole house is like that lol I clear one out and put into another one lol however you insipired me to fold some laundry so thank you.
I know I don't know you personally and just on here but you come across and seem to be a really honest kind and loving guy just believe in you you are amazing and you are worthy just be you because you are ENOUGH.
Take care Mark I'm looking forward to later and your new vlog. X
Loving all of these vlogs 💕
I got fired in June and been struggling to find a job since, rejection became my absolute nightmare! I’m working my first shifts at the grocery store and I’m still anxious about being fired after every shift - it’s irrational but so real at the same time…
Omg mark please look into adhd, rejection sensitivity is intenssseeee 💕
It's because you have worked so hard on it that it feels bigger. It won't last forever.
We call them cheese cakes too! God knows why they are named that haha. On a serious note maybe your feelings on rejection are so much worse this year as you are grieving. When someone close dies young we get reminded how short life can be, therefore it can feel that time is running out. Rejection can feel like the situation was time wasted. Idk just how i feel sometimes.
I just had to reach out after hearing you talk about feeling sensitive to rejection. I know you’ve often spoken about your brain working in a unique way, and I wasn’t sure if you thought potentially you might have some ADHD like tendencies? (Not me trying to diagnose btw) But as a proud ADHD girlie 👑 I’ve learned about something called Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria - it’s worth a Google! But many ADHD’ers or highly sensitive people experience this, and it’s such a tough thing to experience as it can be almost physically painful. Sending love ❤ you’re doing amazing sweetie xo
Curd cheesecake we have them in hull my nana used to always bring one to my house!!

Hey Mark, I normally never comment on videos but wanted to talk about Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) which is when you experience severe emotional pain because of a failure or feeling rejected. It might be that. ❤ I think it's worth doing some more reading.
Looks like a Mary poppins cupboard lol makes me smile x
Love the dream inclusion 😂
Love you and your beautiful heart!
I just live for your videos 🫶🏽🥰 luv ya xxx
If u feel interested to know about ur dream, a common dream related to ur descriptions are the dream that ur teeth are falling out! (2 different meanings which u can research ur reason why u r having these signs during sleep.) if u find sources from psychology they mostly have already done tests and analysis.
Fav part of my day 🥰
Love a London cheesecake, i get mine from Aldi

Hey Mark, have you ever been diagnosed with adhd...? I have it, and a huge part of it is something called 'rejection sensitive dysphoria', we experience rejection of any kind on a whole other level compared to normies! i highly suggest looking it up to see if it resounds with you. When i realised my rejection issues were down to that, it was a huuuuuge weight off my mind, believe me!!
Hi Mark, have you researched rejection sensitive dysphoria? It’s part of ADHD but sounds much like what you are going through ❤ x
Never been this early before ^^
Rejection is redirection🫶🏼🫶🏼
I’m a dream interpreter, I’d be more than happy to help you out!
