This is no way goes against Rhiannon but I just want to put this out there hoping it can help people who are looking to start therapy. I appreciate that Better Help uses the term “therapy” to refer to their services, however coming from personal experience I feel like it should be pointed out that what they do is counselling. Better help therapists cannot diagnose people or prescribe medication and they will not treat more complex mental health conditions. They SHOULD however be able to identify if someone has more serious mental health needs and would benefit from a different kind of help. Better help is a very good service, but only if you need to “talk to someone”, or if you’re struggling with something temporarily. If you have more complex needs it can still help, but it will not treat serious mental health conditions.
this!! and there are way too many people that have had negative experiences and it just makes me so frustrated seeing all of my fav youtubers (albeit with good intentions) promoting them like its some sort of utopian service
Yes!!! I feel absolutely the same and didn't have a good experience with their services as well.. Unpopular opinion but I also feel like therapy is being promoted in a slightly wrong way.. don't get me wrong, I think everyone should do it but hyping it in such a way.. sounds quite dubious to me..
The chest of drawers is stunning! It's amazing it's so old, it looks so modern! I love how you take your time to find the perfect pieces for your home, you definitely inspired me with my own home.
@ I use one of those cheap green flat scouring pads to apply Briwax original wax, let it dry for half an hour then buff with soft cloth ( old T shirt ) it only usually takes a couple of coats repeating the process, especially if you use the tinted wax 👍
Love a notification from Rhiannon! You have the coziest, yet most real life vlogs and they're my favourite! Grateful you're in this space to grace our screens Xx
I know that when you’re feeling that way about yourself, nothing others say really helps much, but before I got to the part where you mention it, I was just thinking how great you look. I’m excited to see your knitting projects, and I continue to be amazed how great of a knitter you’ve become. I’m more into crocheting (currently working on the softest cuddle blanket made out of bamboo yarn, for one of my grandbabies ☺️.
I've been receiving therapy since my late teens. I am now 29. I finally realised that it wasn't working for me... and now waiting for my ADHD and ASD diagnoses. But the thing I am trying to figure out why didn't none of the therapies picked up on the fact I could be neurodivergent!
Honestly, most therapists aren't very knowledgeable on this. They're not psychologists or psychiatrists. They're there to try to help you work through your problems and thoughts, but unless they've had a specific need to, they've probably never learned much about it.
You your videos always make me feel so calm and like I can breathe. Thank you for always being you! I love the new bedroom set up! Do you mind sharing your clock on the nightstand? Love how simple it is! Thank you and happy vlogmas!
I would absolutely love a video (or a short section of a vlog) dedicated to your knitting and crochet. How you got started, which patterns you recommend, where you get your wool and tools from. That would be fab 🥰 also for the record, I also love the orange chocolate from Quality Street!
I love the chest of drawers! I know you usually share your new ornaments in vlogs, but anyway to get a list of the places you've purchased from? Or an Instagram story showing the ornaments in detail for some inspo?
I need a bit of Doug's luck when it comes to find a chest of drawers. Like you, I have been looking everywhere for drawers exactly like this. To the point where I almost gasped when I saw your ones. They're gorgeous! I'm going to channel that kind of luck in my continued search ☺
Your chest of drawers are a dream! So envious of that find. I think the shade of the wood looks lovely as-is with the colours of your bedroom. We're a Quality Street household I'm afraid! We're always fighting over the toffee pennies :)
So glad you are doing vlogmas Rhiannon I always love your vlogs they are so cosy x cadburys roses over quality st but love celebrations because of the bounty x
What are seriously cool chest of drawers!! The history makes it all the more interesting! Thank you for showing that ❤ - I love the red and blue roses and all the other ones you showed tbh
I love the new chest of drawers! The history is amazing!!! I feel that with the therapy not working for ADHD and I am looking into Autism too. I now have a therapist that is neurodivergent herself and it has made the biggest difference! Roses are better than quality street for sure but feel celebrations are the best! Although heroes are good too!
I loved your vlog today. That chest of drawers was amazing. I’d be thrilled to find that. I’ve never tried Roses candies, maybe we just don’t get them here in the USA. My favorite chocolate candies is caramel or coconut. Also I’m limited on how much coffee I can drink so I have a cup of regular coffee in the mornings and a cup of decaf a the evenings.
Your Scarf is super cute & soft. The wardrobes door knobs are lovely. Love the Lamp in the Hall, looks very cosy. Lots of upcycling projects coming up on your channel ❤ oh & i love Dairy Milk 🎉
So good to have vlogmas this year! Thanks for doing it, have to ask where the gold clover garland is from draped on your mirror? Also what’s the knitting pattern you used for the scarf? So beaut😊❤
omg! roses have changed so much! i don't think ive had them since the 90s LOL 👀 they used to be in the twisty wrappers and u had to remember what each flavour was by the colour of the wrapper! they look much more civilized now 😁 (also lol at Delilah's twirling, she rules) oh edit! the plain choc used to be my fave! purple wrapper! boring haha
I’m American and I went to buy quality street at an international store bc I always see it in your vlogs as well as other British TH-camrs and it seems so festive and fun but it was sooo expensive. Obviously due to it being imported but I’m glad I didn’t now 😅 how much do they cost in the uk?
Hey Rhiannon! I just wanted to ask, is the cloud knit itchy? Because I noticed you wear it with long sleeve underneath. I would like to knit that one too, as yours looks amazing, but I would use a different yarn if you tell me that that one is itchy. I cannot stand to feel itchy, it drives me up the wall.
I like 5 out of the 9 of the Cadbury roses selection, 7 out of the 11 of the Quality street, 4 out of the 9 of Cadbury Heroes and 4 out of the 8 of Celebrations Don’t like the toffees in Quality street, the fruit fondants in Roses are too sweet, the Nougats (not the Milkyway) in Heroes and Celebrations are too chewy, don’t think much of the fudges and not a dark chocolate person
I’m loving this comprehensive break down! We’re going to need to buy some celebrations and heroes to figure out which I prefer - for research purposes, of course 😅

Use clear or antique pine furniture wax on the chest of draws and cupboard. Much nicer than varnish and covers a multitude of sins and smells lovely.
Oooo ok! Thanks for the tip, that’s really helpful x

Lovely vlog! Roses are my choice too all the soft centres! favourite is the strawberry cream!
Yes! It’s the soft centres - love anything truffle/caramel/creams!
Can’t wait to watch! Hope you’re doing well ❤
Did you follow a pattern for the scarf? I have some similar colour yarn left over & would love to knit one in time for Christmas presents!✨🧶
I used Deima’s mohair pair pattern 🫶🏻
@ fab, thank you!

You have such a good eye for colour combinations! 😍

Yay, another vlogmas 🥰
those chest of drawers are perfect!
What a great opening! You are funny!
Definitely roses...the green triangle❤
Lovely video; you were really on it xxxx
omg Doug was stressing me out on the ladder 😂
Sand-Nes Garn ❤ (garn means yarn in Norwegian 😄 Love the colors in that scarf!
Yay the vlogmas are back!!!🎄🎄🎄
So good to have vlogmas this year! Thanks for doing it, have to ask where the gold clover garland is from draped on your mirror? Also what’s the knitting pattern you used for the scarf? So beaut😊❤
omg where is your project bag from? love it !
Petite Knit :)
Hi Rhiannon! Can I ask what pattern you used for the scarf? It looks stunning!
omg! roses have changed so much! i don't think ive had them since the 90s LOL 👀 they used to be in the twisty wrappers and u had to remember what each flavour was by the colour of the wrapper! they look much more civilized now 😁 (also lol at Delilah's twirling, she rules)
oh edit! the plain choc used to be my fave! purple wrapper! boring haha
I feel you with the quality street, they've definitely fallen off 😢
I’m American and I went to buy quality street at an international store bc I always see it in your vlogs as well as other British TH-camrs and it seems so festive and fun but it was sooo expensive. Obviously due to it being imported but I’m glad I didn’t now 😅 how much do they cost in the uk?
£5. But usually on offer somewhere for £4, for a plastic tin or around £7 for a proper tin. So pretty cheap but alas the tin is getting smaller. 😅
@@lenamoo5082that’s crazy it was like $30!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hey Rhiannon! I just wanted to ask, is the cloud knit itchy? Because I noticed you wear it with long sleeve underneath. I would like to knit that one too, as yours looks amazing, but I would use a different yarn if you tell me that that one is itchy. I cannot stand to feel itchy, it drives me up the wall.
I live in America, but I’d love to try your chocolates that you have over there! Yummy!!😋

What style are your jeans from Levi’s as the link doesn’t take me to it
They’re straight leg ribcage ankle x
🥰🌟❤️
I can't eat chocolate. If I do I will have an allergic reaction. I remember years ago when I could have chocolate that I preferred dark chocolate.
I like 5 out of the 9 of the Cadbury roses selection, 7 out of the 11 of the Quality street, 4 out of the 9 of Cadbury Heroes and 4 out of the 8 of Celebrations
Don’t like the toffees in Quality street, the fruit fondants in Roses are too sweet, the Nougats (not the Milkyway) in Heroes and Celebrations are too chewy, don’t think much of the fudges and not a dark chocolate person
I’m loving this comprehensive break down! We’re going to need to buy some celebrations and heroes to figure out which I prefer - for research purposes, of course 😅
Have you watched The Wild Robot? I think Delilah would love it!
No! But she’s been saying she wants to watch it :)
Love you Rhiannon but afraid I'm more of a quality street gal ..love a toffee coin. Thank you for a lovely vlog 😊
You can come round and help Delilah polish off the toffee coins 😆
@RhiannonAshleeVlogs anytime 😊 although might be a long drive from Newcastle in the North East xx
