I get anxiety anytime someone comes to pick me up, when I'm going on a trip/plane, going to the doctors/dentist, when I have to do something by a certain time. I also have misophonia so I get anxiety from other movements and sounds but the anxiety that I get from misophonia isn't the worst part of having it.
my therapist loves to say that my anxiety is my body doing one of its jobs too well
Is it just me who is proud of youtubers when the vid ends on exactly 20:00... No just me ...
I have anxiety with the same situation too. I feel anxious if I can't escape or if there are no windows. I also get anxious from feeling sick or away from home. I just have a lot of types of anxiety and different times and I understand it's so difficult. Zoe I'm so glad you spoke out a bit more about this as I'm at the stage you are now and am sussing my anxiety out. Thank you for opening up Zoe! Xxxx
I lived my life with anxiety until the day I decided to not let it run my life. I put myself into all the situations that brought it on and fought with it. one by one each situation was no longer a problem. I had no help, just a strong will to take my life back.
Your eyelashes look INCREDIBLE in this!!! 😍
I love the attitude you have towards anxiety, and you really helped me to understand. You are a really strong person for thinking in this way. We are all here for you Zoe, if you ever want to talk to us like this in a vlog again, or personally, or anything like that, we are listening and all supporting you. I'M supporting you, and I am here for you. I love you sososo much Zoe, hope the rest of your December is lovely and stress free xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx :)
What am I going to do with my life once vlogmas is over!!
Alfie couldn't have worded that more perfectly saying 'it's fine for you but it's not fine for them'
Your beauty advent calendars❤️
I literally have tears in my eyes, because I live with anxiety pretty long now and for me it is like a cage that gets slowly smaller and smaller, which is really affecting my life. I'm thinking pretty much about going to an therapist lately and this might be what I needed to finally take it serious and do something about it. Thank you so much Zoe!
These vlogs cheer me up after a loooonng day in college!! :D
I appreciate it so much that you talked about anxiety.
I have suffered from anxiety for about 2 years now. And I can't do anything about it. Like if I'm at school and have an attack people say to me "why are you worrying about this, its fine" and that makes me even more anxious. Some people never see that side of me and when they do, they look as if I'm turning into something they don't want to see. I do need to see someone to talk about it!
A big part of my anxiety has to do with control, like if I'm going somewhere, even back when it was as simple as going to school, I had to plan it and go trough in my head exactly what would happen and what I would do. Every night I would put on five alarms for the next morning. And I had to do it every night, even though I got up the same time every day. And then when I woke up I had a plan for what I would do that morning before I left. I would repack my bag even though I had packed it the night before getting in bed, just to make sure everything was right even though I knew it was. Then I looked what time I would take the bus and when I had to leave my apartment, everyday, and it was always the same time, and I always knew when I had to leave but I still looked at the bus schedule and counted how many minutes before I had to leave. Then when I was done and sat on my bed looking at the watch just waiting until it I knew I would be at the bus stop several minutes before it came but not too early that I would freeze or freak out because I thought someone might see me wait for 20 minutes more than I had to.
Then while on the bus I checked again what room number it was for my class, which I did everyday. Counted how many minutes I would have from when I got to school until class started. And then I made up a plan about how I would wait in different places so someone didn't see me in one place for too long, because in my head that was horrible, like someone was thinking "why has she been sitting there for 15 minutes? Doesn't she have a class or something?" And then the last few minutes I would wait outside my classroom until I started. Then throughout the day I would always check and recheck when I had lunch and where I had to be and when I would get home and how and make dinner, clean my apartment, try (and fail) to study, shower, prepare for the next day and then do all the same shit again.
I have social anxiety where I'm really conscious about people looking at me and judging me I also see a therapist and I fully support you talking about it Zoe I find when I do it makes me feel more comfortable with people, I also really want to get rid of it but it's so difficult and I'm only 15 going on 16 and even though I've had it many years since I was only little I haven't experienced being able to try and get through it but I find watching videos and reading blogs make me feel better, December has been amazing so many videos from you and I've been much less anxious obviously its still been difficult but it's been a lot better I love you Zoe and thankyou X I would also really appreciate it for you to make more videos about your anxiety as it really helps me and I'm sure it helps lots of others too X
Omg Alfie just said what I have, I am so afraid of elevators! And I am claustrophobic...
Theres no easy way to describe anxiety, what you were saying about not being able to leave is exactly how i feel, my anxiety started off as something i could cope with and i could calm myself down easily, but now its a whole different story. i have severe emetophobia which is made worse by the fact that when i feel anxious, i feel very sick, i cant watch someone eat something that they know they don't like, purely because i'm afraid they'll gag. Trying to explain this to someone who doesn't know what it feels like is extremely difficult, i'm in sixth form right now and i've been signed off for 2 weeks because i just kept being sent home feeling sick and i hate how its taking over my life. Talking to a therapist is definitely beginning to help, although I know that I have to put my own effort n too, or else I'm just going to be stuck in this huge bubble of anxiety.
People, including my own family can't understand it when I say I feel sick, they genuinely think theres something seriously wrong with me and that I need to go to hospital but I know that its just this stupid phobia. A lot of people don't understand it, they don't understand why I sit there biting my nails or breathing heavily, its just something I have to do or else I will end up breaking down crying and thats the last thing I want to do in front of a whole class. Whenever I go anywhere I have to have music and plan my route out, if I'm in a room where I can't get out without drawing attention to myself, it only adds to my anxiety as its all that I will think about until I can leave.
No one should have to go through these type of things but its reassuring to know that I'm never the only one to be going through something like this.
(writing this made me feel worse cause i was thinking about it so lets just stop there, haha)
My School has a quote above our lunch hall "Be Kind, As every person you meet is fighting their battles"
i love vlogmasso much 😭 I don't want it to end
this vlog really helped me so much! the fact that you said that you want to sort it out your anxiety really made me realize that I was wrong because I've always thought that I just had to deal with it. For me get rid of anxiety have always been something that I considered impossible and maybe that's why I even got worst...thanks Zoe
Thank you for speaking about your anxiety. I've recently been diagnosed with it. Everyone just told me I was just being a worry wart so I just kept it all inside and that didn't do me any good. It's been a learning process for my family and I to learn how to overcome it and when I do have an episode that it's okay to take a moment and breathe. Thank you again!
LOVE HOW YOUR VLOGS ARE SO LONG!!!! Time to grab the snacks and start watching>>>
It's nice you explaining your anxiety, so people understand it more!
I wouldn't say I HAVE anxiety, but I do get anxious from time to time. I often get anxious around a lot of people, in town, airports etc. and it all get worse if I'm tired or hungry.
loving vlogmass this year!❄❤⛄
At about 10:57 when Zoe says my momma don't like you and she likes everyone she was saying the lyrics of Justin beiber new song love yourself
Yes I'm the SAME way with the anxiety. It's when I feel trapped In a situation and don't want to be rude if I have to leave which makes me anxious in the first place. Even checking out at a grocery store is hard for me because I have to stay there till she is done and if I have to leave and walk off she is going to think I'm rude or is going to be really confused on what just happened.
I totally understand Zoë when she talked about anxiety. I really recognised myself in her stories, which really is kinda satisfying. It's so nice to have some one who is dealing with the same kind of stuff as you are.
I love when she said my mama don't like you
I hate anxiety it really affects every day life :( people don't realise how much it can affect you just living! I struggle with panic attacks regularly and I hate them :( When I watch your videos it feels like I can connect with you because you understand
My anxiety is caused by the same situations. If I'm in a situation where I feel like I can't escape, I get super anxious. It really ruins life for me. I've had panic attacks at work and out at dinner, even driving (I have to drive 5 hours to go home from college and I get panic-y in traffic). Kind of like claustrophobia. Anyways it's very embarrassing to have them in public. I was wondering though, do you take medicine for it, and/or does the therapy help? I was told by my doctor that she'd rather have me see a therapist than take meds since I'm only 20 and my anxiety attacks only happen during certain situations and are pretty spread apart, but I've always been hesitant to contact someone, not sure why. Plus, I don't really want to take drugs since I feel like it would change me. I don't know. Love you and your videos Zoe! I'm really happy I have someone like you to watch who I feel like I can relate to, definitely during times when I feel anxious or bad about my anxiety. It's nice to feel like I'm not the only person with this problem.
Love you sooooo much Zoe ! I was sat doing homework and just dropped my pen for this ❤️
I completely know how you feel! I have anxiety, panic disorder and emetophobia. My anxiety plays up when I am in a situation I can't get out of easily, like when I have my hair done, nails done, and even going out for a drink with friends sometimes. I feel like I put too much pressure on myself to be there even though people probably would understand if you needed to take 5 minutes to cool down. I have tried hypnotherapy and tried speaking to a councillor through the NHS but I haven't felt that they have helped, my doctor has just put me on anti depressants and tablets to stop me from panicking - I just think this covers up the problem and doesn't solve anything. It's so reassuring knowing that somebody else feels exactly the same as I do. I bet you feel so good after you've pushed yourself to do something you didn't want to do. You're an inspiration xxx
oooh It's so amazing, that you speak about your anxiety! because, like some other people here, I guess, I did not know what yours is about. And I have like the same one! I get really anxious, when I feel like I can't get out of a certain situation, it got me so far, that I even got a eating disorder because of it. I'm kinda over it right now, but just hearing those words from you made my day. Thank you for being awesome, for facing your anxiety and for making each of our days just by being there. We love you! best of luck
P.S: loving vlogmas!
Hi zoe, i love the fact that you are so open with your anxiety, its the real reason that i finally started getting mine treated. I was diagnosed with anxiety and panic disorder at quite a young age, and as I've got older I've struggled more. For me, triggers are similar to yours, i dont like situations i can't get out of, but mines also alot to do with other people. Its so nice for someone who is so in the public eye to show people that anxiety isn't just one thing, it comes in so many different forms, something i dont think the majority of people are aware of. Thank you for being such great spokes person for a condition that so many people find hard to talk about x
zoe you make me instantly feel happier ive had a terrible evening, ive been very upset but you made me feel not alone and reassured 💗 your beautiful inside and out , and never foget it xxx
I agree with you, Zoe. Also, thank you for taking the time to talk about anxiety. You're a big inspiration to me, I love seeing someone around my age accomplishing so much wonderful things as you did. As someone who suffers from social anxiety, I think it's very important to face the things that make you anxious. The more you put yourself out there, the better you'll feel. That's how I see it. Btw, your Vlogmas is awesome, it makes my day! :)
I have anxiety too, Zoë! Mine is a bit different, but I do understand where you're coming from with your situational anxiety. Love to you, proud of you for sorting it
I do have anxiety....... now that i am 12 i have went to high school and every day i feel SUPER anxious, and once when i had to share my project in class, i was refusing to go to school....... i'm still not sure how to deal with my anxiety and honestly i don't really think i can deal with that kind of anxiety
Love that more youtubers are talking about anxiety.
LOVE YOU ZOE!!!!! YOUR VLOGMASS IS THE BEST!!!
The intro gets me every time love your vlogmas/videos so far Zoe xx❤️
So early😂love your videos Zoe❤️
I Have Anxiety There Are Moments Where I Feel So Powerless. I Completely Understand How You Feel Zoë
Anyone else notice that zoë and poppy were wearing stripes? #goals
this vlog made me cry! its so nice to hear that someone understands what it like to feel that way.
I totally understand where your coming from my best friend suffers with anxiety and she gets anxious when it comes to confidence and feeling trapped...love you lots xxxx
I have never been so early
VLOGMAAAAAAAAS IS TEH BEST!
I love u zoe❤️ thank u for making my day❤️❤️
I get anxiety with school tests, but not the same way as others. I feel like I can't leave, like you, and I end up breaking down. My mum and dad's relationship broke down last year and this has really made me more anxious. My friends invite me out with their parents and I get very scared, because of the questions they may ask me. I know have to help my mum out more around the house and don't get a lot of free time. I am getting down to sorting this out, but my anxiety has built up like yours and now is taking a while to get rid of. Writing this message has actually helped me come to terms over what I have to do, especially listening to you saying I shouldn't let anxiety be a part of me. It's like saying don't let the bullies get you down in a way. (This message took me 2 hours to put together because I had to think really hard about what I was and wasn't going to say. It would mean a lot to me if you could reply with any tips) Thank you sooooo much Zoe, you help more people on TH-cam, thatn police are realistically capable of in a day xx
Your vlogmass videos always put me u such a good mood!!💘💘
I get anxiety over hospitals, dentists, opticians etc please do a whole video on this xx
What should I do about anxiety, I hate it?😖
EARLIEST IVE EVER BEEN!!!! I'm loving vlogmas so much, it always brightens my day to see two videos a day!! I'm so happy your enjoying it too Zoe!
I totally can relate to people saying calm down or stop being anxious as if its a reaction you can control which it isn't how it works. I suffer quite a bit from anxiety and I would love to get help and when I can afford to I will. Thanks for shedding light on your anxiety because people in your position can influence a younger generation and create awareness about anxiety and mental health in general.:)
I have Anxiety and I know EXACTLY what your talking about I feel as if it's to long to talk about and I want to have a meet up with us and other people with anxiety that would help me alot!
I have a problem Zoe 😫 I have anxiety and my mum doesn't believe me because she believes that anxiety and panic attacks are in the mind and it is not real. What do I do?? 😭
Zoe that speech was incredibly it helped me with so many thoughts that I had in my life and I also love and admire you sooooooooo much xxx I wish you the best in life and merry Christmas and a happy new year xxxx😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I understand your anxiety Zoe I get it too about what people think of me when I'm like at school or at a club or a social group but I'm trying to like work through it and do something about it! Love you xxox
Your vlogmas is getting me through uni work right now :) xx
LOVE YOU ZOE AND ALFIE YOU ARE AMAZING
The last part of the video was so helpful and inspiring 🙂 it makes me feel calm and the stuff you said was so true and helpful. I've learnt alot from you zoe, love you xx.
Thank you for speaking so openly about your problems. I'm having a really difficult time because I have a chronic illness and it's somehow comforting to know, that you're struggeling with something as well even though your life always comes across as so perfect in your vlogs. Thanks so much for the honesty zoe :) And I also wish you all the best for fighting your anxiety
I get 'anxiety' fairly similarly to you (I put anxiety in inverted commas coz I haven't been diagnosed as such but I feel like i have something 'wrong' with me) because when I go to another persons house for a sleepover I always break down in floods of tears and shaking and just a sick feeling at the pit of my stomach and it's because I feel trapped and I don't want to be rude by asking to leave because I'm not that kind of person but I just feel awful and I just want to scream and ugh, I don't know I just feel awful and I get the same feeling on trains and the tube and crowded places like London and stuff
Yay SO EXCITED FOR THIS VLOG
I liked that last bit with the chat, I get it and I think you should just carry on just as your doing, I get very anxious on busy trains and busy places with people next to me but you just do what you can to help the situation along in your own way and carry on, I really enjoyed just hearing both you and Alfie just chat about it a lot of people will appreciate these types of videos and it opens others eyes as we'll :) From Lisa merry Christmas
This about ansiety was awsome! Thanks for that

Hi Zoe, I agree with you fully, and here is a lady that you would love to check out. Her name is Caroline Leaf that is from South Africa and now lives in America and travels the states sharing her incredible knowledge of the mind and the brain.
She has created such awesome online content as well as hard copy stuff to get your hands on.
Everyone check her out too, with a mental struggle or not.
I would recommend her book called "switch on your brain" one of the most mind changing books I have read.
Zoe you are doing such an incredible job with your platform to help people that struggle too keep it up.
The lord is so proud of you and your accomplishments and he lives you so much
