    As a fellow ADHD girlie I totally get where you are coming from. I too am trying to better myself in 2023, coming from someone who also gets bored with rules and routine. I'm going to try my best to be my best version of myself by putting myself out there with my gym routine, healthy eating & self-love/care. Thankful to have a fellow rock chick babe putting herself out there! Gives me the motivation to keep going and not give up! for me I find so many people don't understand what it's like being in your 30s and living with ADHD, but you definitely help to normalise the stigma of "female" dominant symptoms, and just want to let you know how much I appreciate your videos!

      I'm in my 40s and I'm 100% certain I have ADHD , I've been following Helen since the Melon days and the bright hair. I'm going to go private to hopefully get diagnosed. Had a lot going on mentally. X

    You’re looking more beautiful it’s probably ironically (given your situation) from the inside but it’s certainly projecting to your outside. I hope you’re feeling kinda refreshed and renewed. All the loves 💜

    Wellness Wednesdays is such a great idea, I have therapeutic Thursday (day for therapy and self care) my day is similar a combination of books, crafts and some walking.
    So glad to watch your videos in the new year. You’re right about diet culture, diet has the word die in it 😂

    Oh Helen I really recognise that anchorless feeling that can occur, where my thoughts are ranging all over the place and I have to utilise various mechanisms to pull myself back into the moment & organise myself & focus on tasks. I had it today. Happy new year to you, and thanks for sharing insights into your experience x

    So happy to see you back and doing well! Your videos always make my day and I’m going through something similar right now so I’m especially grateful. Sending much love angel! 😊🥰
    Ps. Would love to see some of your embroidery if you’re happy sharing!

    Totally agree with your rant about the "New year New me" diet culture plastered everywhere in ads throughout January. If you struggle with routine, could you get a gym buddy to pick you up (or who relies on you picking them up on the way to the gym) to help stick with bootcamp? Take care Helen xx

    I just want to gain strength this year, I struggle sometimes to open heavy doors and a bit unstable on my feet, I just brought a couple of cheap weights to hopefully gain some strength. I dont care about losing weight, the thing is I dont care as long as i feel good, I'm more self conscious of my skin, I had really bad acne in high school, I've improved it a lot, I use to pick at my skin when I was anxious, had a bad time in high school, I now have bad social anxiety so high school really messed my head up. I have some really down days. I remembered some of the advice you gave that your therapist told you, to challenge your thoughts, that's helping, saying I can do this if I'm struggling rather then how can I avoid or run. I'm focusing on me, my skin is having a bad moment which is giving me anxiety cus I have a meeting tomorrow at work so my mind will be constantly thinking have they noticed my skin, bet they'll talk about it when I leave. I've learnt to tell my head to shut the f up, I just tell myself to shut the f up when it goes crazy. I have no friends and cant make any either, it feels like I'm paralysed to speak, like I cant move and I can hear my heart beating loud. I've never had a panic attack, I've just hidden anything that makes me not seem normal, and I mean normal as confident in yourself. That's what I think normal is. Which is stupid cus no ones the same, and why do i think anxiety or acne etc isnt normal. I just wish everyone was understanding and kind. I havnt met many understanding people, in fact I know none. Theres kind people but I've over heard conversations that arnt so nice by them too. Anyways that was a rant, aww jolene 😂

    Highly recommend the podcast ADHD for smart ass women, she touches on so many different topics from running a business with ADHD to relationships, really useful even if you haven’t been diagnosed x

    Always good to watch your videos. Slow and steady wins the race. I definitely can relate to having yout day thrown off balance after a challenge. You gave some good advice on how to recenter yourself and to recalibrate you're mind so you can focus again. Thanks so much!

    I love the idea of wellness Wednesday! I think putting your time and effort into fitness is only a good thing when you do it in a healthy mindset, and that seems to be yours at the moment! But yeah, it is annoying when everything is based off of January, new year new me things 😫

    Honestly, that’s why I don’t set weight loss goals every year. Cause I feel so pressured on Christmas time or season because I’d always think I’ll have to lose weight or hurry to the gym after New Year’s 😭

    • @helenanderz
      @helenanderz  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Exactly!! But for me it was the group effort that was important not that it was Christmas or new years. Do these things if and when YOU want xx

    @alinagolovina1235 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think that generally new years resolutions are super cheesy and are made for those people who only hit the gym for a month and then give up. It should be more like New Years Goals. I feel like having ''goals' is more legit, that way it doesn't feel like we have to fit anything into a small timeframe.

    Thank you for showing your 'normal' Christmas gifts. I'm about to unfollow an influencer who got a Louis Vuitton day planner for Christmas... (The price of that thing, jesus) I have nothing but absolute respect for people's success and I have nothing against people showing off their wealth, I just wish I had a slice of that cake too, you know? It makes me sad I'll never be able to be like that. Anyway, thank you for being real and down to earth Helen x
