This is exactly how I was as a law student. All those negative habits and self hate led me to awful life that I'm still recovering from. I so needed to hear this. Thanx again Mel.
Me...stop the video... run and get my book so I can follow along! 😁🙏🥳📖 Paralyzed by uncertainty has been my story for too long! Also depression, ADHD, and fibromyalgia, hating myself. I am so ready to break the habit of running and lying to get myself out of what I am afraid of...feeling that I am not enough...smart enough, skinny enough, pretty enough, healthy enough...not good enough...not worthy to be loved after 3 relationships ending and losing what I believed was the love of my life...etc, etc!! I keep lying to myself...making promises to myself and others and never following through, always making excuses, faking it and TRYING to make it...but staying stuck in self-destructive behaviors! 😔 Your book is helping me sooooo much, I know I have to break these cycles, but I'm making the effort...taking the steps, and owning my outcomes, taking 100% responsibility for my life at 59 years old. It's hard... really hard, but I am doing my best, taking action, and learning to give myself grace, forgiving myself!🙏 But also taking responsibility, knowing that I am not broken, I'm just blocked, and now I have the tools (your book and more) to break the cycles and clear out the damn lint !! ✋💜🔥🎉🌀 Thanks Mel, Love you Bunches! 😘
Mel, I've turned a book club of 25 skeptics into 26 (myself included) believers in your work! Love you so much. Thanks for being the mom I never had, the inspiration I need & the voice of reason/support we all could use.
Wow, I recently ended up ghosting a job. It’s embarrassing and honestly I wish I could go back and change it. I relate so much to your story. I have a pattern of running away when things get too uncomfortable
You spoke to my soul right here. I’ve never related to a speaker’s story so much. Have a few train wreck stories of my own that I’m still ashamed of, and that’s how I know how much courage it must’ve taken for you to share yours. Thank you so much.
Mel, the part where you describe how you lived each day, being late, disorganized, getting sidetracked, being unable to focus....makes me think this is what my 25 year old daughter goes through and her drug use only serves to intensive those feelings. Yes, I do worry constantly. She is very smart and has a good heart and is great at interacting with people, but she is going down a spiral. I work every day to try to take care of myself and to model those behaviors I want to see from her. It's a very tough and lonely road.
My friend, I will pray greatly for you and your daughter. I can confidently promise you that she will overcome this. May the Lord show you his miracles unfold. Always know I am praying :)
From Train wreck comes building a better train, I was pretty much similar..addiction, anxiety etc. and I cured it and I cured physical conditions, too one very bad one I was born with using mind over matter. Doctors, diets, natural healers could not heal me but making the reality of health and comfort more real in my mind than the physical flair ups of sheer torture that was my life every day I cured it. It took 3 YEARS of daily practice not giving up but free of the meds that were killing me for almost 4 years now which I use to need daily just to function..I know this is a bit off Mel's topic but not really..BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE MIND...WHATEVER THE CHALLENGE IT MAY TAKE TIME BUT YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!! Aloha
I really want to thank you for sharing your life and for being so transparent! I'm 55 and have been trying to heal from my mid-twenties at a snails pace. You are helping me so much.
*To all the dreamers out there, don't ever let the world's negativity disenchant you or your spirit. If you surround yourself with love and right people, ANYTHING is possible.* 🙏🖤
Thank you Mel for speaking on this topic! There is so much hope for those battling these things. I was bound in anxiety & depression for years and was able to heal holistically and now LIVE to help others going through the same thing. It’s amazing to be in this with you. If anyone is struggling, you are not alone. You WILL and CAN overcome your hurdles 💗💗
This is my EXACT story except replace law school with medical school. I didn’t make it thru. That just fed my self hate and anxiety and negative beliefs. Now I’m 30, and not spiraling but not where I want to be. I am being forced to make a change now, and I hope this is the turn my life finally needs. I probably need to deal w my childhood trauma then too.
How's it been after 1 year? I'm turning 33 and failed out of law school at 32 because my health was so bad I couldn't even study any of the books. I went into a spiral. Trying to dig myself out now broke, old and a ton of psychological problems to sort out too.
Thank you for this. I love your honesty. I can relate to this so much. At 41 I am in my third year of college and starting an online business. I was so full of gusto at the beginning now I am so scared again. I am fed up trying so hard and feeling I am falling backwards a bit again. Sometimes you just want to be further ahead an know its gonna ok. I will be ok!! i am good.....
I can relate to this so much. As an immigrant going into a ivy League engineering school far from my family I coped my whole undergrad and graduate year my anxiety and sense of being lost/ uncertain with food and procrastination. Things got better but well as Mel says it takes a lot of constant work. Thank you for sharing this story with us Mel. You are so powerful because you are s relatable ❤
I’m 48 and I’m still a train wreck…I admit it. I’ve never knew what I wanted or needed to fulfill my life….I still don’t. Thanks for your content. Much love ❤️
I'm 61 and have faced so much in my life. I've spent years in the same patterns. I have spent many years in circles of healing work and certified in it all. As I child I wrote my first book at nine and published it locally. I always felt I was more than what I was doing. I raised four kids as a single parent and chose the wrong partners in life. Now I have lost my home in 2020 my holistic healing business and still trying to fight for my half of everything. My ex-partner is a narcissist and more. I temporarily live with one of my kids while I try to start life over. I found myself writing again only this time I have a lot to say and teach others to help inspire and heal. All that I have learned spiritually has led me back to writing for adults and kids. While healing over the last two years I realized I have a lot to give. Now I am writing not just to tell my story or experience, I have a lot to teach about self-love and dealing with your past horrors. We have all been there. It isn't easy however with listening to your soul your angels and their signs, trust me it gets better
Thanks.... This video came in the perfect time. Will watch it again. My wife separated me two years ago and it still to this day just hurts so deeply. Love my three little boys over everything.... They are the true love of my life... They are my life. But the pain never ends. Its hard to think that something is going to change in the future since I feel so powerless over everything at the moment. I just don't see anything ahead.
I wish I could have gotten this in front of my sister who just died 2 weeks ago from long term alcohol consumption. I am carrying guilt for extracating myself from the situation to protect my own mental state, for not showing her the love I had for her stuffed way down in me and found a way to get her the help she needed, but refused to get. The sadness and regret are sucking the life out of me.
I don't know if this helps, but having gone the other way with troubled family members (dropping everything I was doing to 'help'), I can tell you that you chose correctly. It hurts to not show up for a self-destructive person, but not as much as showing up and being abused and ultimately not actually helping. People need to choose to heal for themselves, you can't help them. Please try to forgive yourself. You did the right thing. I'm sorry you are hurting.
Needed this today, Mel. I was just scrolling after having a breakdown mid-workday over my delayed salary for four consecutive months now. I feel like taking the necessary steps to really look deep within, identify my destructive patterns, and make new and healthier patterns. And now I know the first thing I will look for and buy when I finally receive my pay is this book. Thank you so much!
Dear Mel, to this day I don't think I have heard a story so similar to my own. I am currently a 25 year-old pharmaceutical sciences student, a degree I should've got at 23. Ok, I didn't do the drinking or smoking, for me was eating, watching series and films and sleeping till afternoon, but I did do the lying, the excuses, the shame, the anxiety for waisting both my time and my parents money. The huge sense of failiure to see my colleagues and friends move forward and me just being stuck. After 4 years I dropped, and now I came back really hoping this time I can do right by myself. I having been listening to you to find some inspiration and tools to help myself. Thank you so much for this. I didn't feel so alone about it today 😊
Thank God I find this channel, because I can relate to those negative thinking situation and self doubt. I have been struggling during pandemic situation. Thank you for sharing this. And I hope I can forgive myself and be a better version of myself. Thank you Mel Robbins. Regards from Indonesia.. 😊
Thanks Mel Robbins for doing this video I'm currently struggling and suffering with my mental and physical health issues due to the medication I'm on and my overall health condition. I'm also feeling stuck,stressed,fustrated and overwhelmed with the situation I'm in with my life. Your work,videos and imformation over the years has helped me through my struggles. I'm currently dealing with all of my challenges considering that I have a aquired brain injury since the age of 3 months old. I got introduced to you from impact theory hosted by Tom Bilyue and ever since then from that picticuler video it has changed my life. Thank you . 😎🇨🇦
Mel I absolutely loved the insight that you share. “If you feel you are worthy of being celebrated, you will want to do more things worthy of celebrating.”. Your story is so inspiring and you have been so strong and it is so admirable. I literally feel like I’m in a similar boat right now to the Mel in law school… literally so similar… and had so many regrets about also missing opportunities, but thankfully that I found you, it is thankfully not as bad. I am so eternally grateful for you and how we have evolved and put self-development first more. Thank you so much Mel. This video felt like I was listening to a book my librarian is reading to me and other people there.
This is so awesome, I love you. The most awesome coincidence is that I´m still today that lawyer, but with 6 years lost of my life, and I haven´t quit my lawyer job or change it. But now I´m making it happen, to quit my job and start my own bussiness.
I recently graduated from university and I'm struggling to keep my head above the proverbial water. My life has been rough, and in 2006 I sobered up. I've been working hard to turn my life around, and I'm 50. I'm doing my best to avoid "feeding the beast" of worrying about my situation while trying to find a way through my current situation.
I'm good thanks im doing good not hung over not sleeping around no drugs no nonsense no care what ppl think just doing me thankyou for the way you support ppl love,light,wairua,peace jave a awesome day
I relate to you so much...I had the same issues all throughout my life. I'm really only starting to get it now at 41. It never stopped me from getting the job, getting into a good college, or always going for what I wanted, but Id just end up fuckin it up, and usually quit, when it got too hard and complicated. I'd convince myself those things weren't for me, but I knew I quit cuz I messed it up by being hungover, or just scared and filled with anxiety. Who knew you could change it...I find it fascinating tho. Thank you so much for the inspiration. Big fan since 2020..like 2 different worlds between now and then.🙌👏👊❤
You know what, Mel? I’ve paused this video on my TV, opened Utube app on my cell to write this comment and there you go… What you are doing, is the BEST, DEEPEST, MOST WONDERFUL AND MAGIC TALENT YOU HAVE. Every time I watch one of your videos, I start off ready just to listen to a wise advice, take it in and make it work for me… I’m always calm as watching this kind of videos is my daily routine of self- bettering myself… But few minutes in I burst in tears… and this never happens if it’s not your video. There’s something about how you do what you do, unique, almost magic, how you can penetrate a human’s soul through the screen. After your videos I feel like when I was a child, innocent, clean, open to the world… Thank you for your existence!
This was making me laugh watching you read the parts of your story from your time at the AG and New Mexico. I was cringing and smiling at the same time. I’ve been there, done similar things and when I tell the story now my reactions are the same. Love your TH-cam entries.
Thank You Mel. I needed to hear this today! OMMMMGGGGG… I can’t believe I’ve been ghosting all these years. I wasn’t alone. Also, thank you for saying “ I love you”. I haven’t heard that in a long time! Thank you. 🙏🏾🥰😘
Thank you for sharing your incredible story. So brave of you and an inspiration for everyone listening. I am sure a lot of people can really resonate with this.🌻
Mel you are a WARRIOR!!! In gratitude for your TRUTHS!!! Self LOVE ROCKS….💖✨💓💓💓✨💖🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 I am spiraling again, 10 yrs ago, I did the same thing OMG 😳 😱😡😬🙃
Thank you so much. I'm 23 years old and from the beginning, what I felt is she is reading my story right now .things are the same as me. thankfully now I can see and move on it.
Ok I felt like we all had coffee together , first comment disappeared but divorced@39 & listening …relatable , it seems my mind disappear when he left , dunno what happened in December ..Mel , I’m actually driving to Grand Rapids next month and will think of this story :) …anyone else find it had to forgive yourself ?! I get it but I wish it was more instant .. 👋
Yes working on yourself is the way to move forward in life. I too have learned so much about good health and letting go of others even family that was not really family. Trust in you and never give up
I am still a public defender and having been through law school & the bar exam and luckily was one of those people that liked it, listening to your description of your daily law school routine, i know that you must have done enough to pass because you got the JD & passed the bar. And that is not easy. You did your homework and somehow you got the grades to make it through and then be able to go out and work as a public defender which by the way I think it's so awesome. But I know that if you didn't do any homework at all or participate in law school like the way it sounds in your description then you would not have graduated or passed the bar let alone become a bad ass trial lawyer. I would have loved to be sitting in the audience when you tried a case!!!
7 mins in and honestly.. Im in tears. I'm going through (and have been) the same thing you were experiencing at 23. It starts at 9am usually when it feels like my whole world is crashing. All those same questions.. why can't I get out of this situation Mario?? Why can't I just figure out what I need to do to move forward? Why do I have all these amazing qualities but I can't even figure out what the next step is? It's a pattern that affects you so deeply that it literally feels like you're treading water in a pool that you cannot get out of. For anyone experiencing something similar..when you feel like this and you feel like nobody understands, it's okay. There are many people in this world going through the same thing (Mel included) and you're not alone. Things will work out if you BELIEVE. You must believe. *edit* just finished. Ahhh..Mel you're just incredible. Thank you for being you. Thank you for impacting our lives.
I almost don’t want to comment because right now this video has 111 comments …. sorry for throwing off the number scheme. This was me in my 20s to a TEE. Many years of falling on my face, torturing myself, followed by twelve step recovery and a spiritual awakening and I’m in the most beautiful space of self love and gratitude and life success. I appreciate so much hearing that even the most “together” and accomplished people came from a similar place and I also relish in sharing my own recovery from sex and love addiction in hopes that others will find hope in it as well.
Love your authenticy Mel...you're such an inspiration to me to keep going in everything that I'm doing, both with myself and my future potential clients. Seeing this came at what feels like divine timing because I was/am at a breaking point and know I have to clean up my side of the street first before I can run across the street to help someone else....doing it in my authentic way! You are amazing! ~Ang
I just discovered you about 3 days ago when TH-cam recommended an interview you did on another channel and I am so thankful TH-cam made that recommendation. I have only watched about 4 videos with you in it so far, but you have already helped me. The interview I watched you talked about using 5-4-3-2-1 and I have already accomplished things the last 3 days using that method and also broken my thought process when I start to head down a negative spiral in my head! Thank you so much for the work you do and for sharing your life with us. I am excited to watch all of your videos and learn all of your valuable tools.
You are a Superstar Mel, I hope you're proud of yourself for having the courage to share your story. Had you not gone through that ,we would not be lucky enough to have our lives changed because of your powerful story. You're brutal honesty will change the way people see themselves and punish themselves for their past mistakes. The fact that you can laugh when you were being brave to bare your soul to us, just made it such a beautiful thing to watch! You are a champion Mel, Thank you.
How awesome to read your own book on your TH-cam channel. Or just a tv channel basically super personalized and customizable for every channel owner. So proud !!!
The Attorney General story was hillarious, yet relatable on so many levels. And the "I forgive myself for ghosting the Attorney General" line will live in my head rentfree from now on. Thank you, Mel, for sharing and for all your work.
I want to thank you for you you are making me understand myself and changing my mind in the patterns I have been programed for years. You are changing my life for the better and I am stronger and worth the best life I never thought I deserved. THANK YOU 😊 🙏 FOR YOU..
Thanks @Mel Robbins😊 it was Just an amazing uplifting act that I just wanted to listen to i will do things that I can do, the things that are in my hands which I can cover to be in college after craking neet ✨. Once again thankyou.....
Thanks for sharing your life stories we are so much alike it blows my mind. You are one of my piviotal people in my life. Thank you. I love you. Your AWESOME. Everyone should listen to your advice. I have been wanting to get my story out in the world but dont know where to start or how to get my story out there. to help people like you 👋👋
Mel- you’re so amazing. Thank you for sharing and so grateful to have your stories and wisdom as proof anything is possible and you only have to go for it. Thank you thank you 😊

Don’t ever give up. You came to watch this video for a reason. Bless yourself with positive energy and grow.
This is exactly how I was as a law student. All those negative habits and self hate led me to awful life that I'm still recovering from. I so needed to hear this. Thanx again Mel.
I love the phrase "evict the bully that lives in your head". Thank you for sharing this incredible video!
Me...stop the video... run and get my book so I can follow along! 😁🙏🥳📖 Paralyzed by uncertainty has been my story for too long! Also depression, ADHD, and fibromyalgia, hating myself. I am so ready to break the habit of running and lying to get myself out of what I am afraid of...feeling that I am not enough...smart enough, skinny enough, pretty enough, healthy enough...not good enough...not worthy to be loved after 3 relationships ending and losing what I believed was the love of my life...etc, etc!! I keep lying to myself...making promises to myself and others and never following through, always making excuses, faking it and TRYING to make it...but staying stuck in self-destructive behaviors! 😔 Your book is helping me sooooo much, I know I have to break these cycles, but I'm making the effort...taking the steps, and owning my outcomes, taking 100% responsibility for my life at 59 years old. It's hard... really hard, but I am doing my best, taking action, and learning to give myself grace, forgiving myself!🙏 But also taking responsibility, knowing that I am not broken, I'm just blocked, and now I have the tools (your book and more) to break the cycles and clear out the damn lint !! ✋💜🔥🎉🌀

I really want to thank you for sharing your life and for being so transparent! I'm 55 and have been trying to heal from my mid-twenties at a snails pace. You are helping me so much.
I’m right behind you at 54. I feel like I am the snail! But, we’ll eventually get to where we want to go. Just keep going:)
Me too! Turning 50 this year .

Thank you Mel, for always reminding me to live in the moment. We cannot change the past, but we can change the moment. Start today and smile tomorrow.
Thank you Mel for speaking on this topic!
There is so much hope for those battling these things. I was bound in anxiety & depression for years and was able to heal holistically and now LIVE to help others going through the same thing.
It’s amazing to be in this with you.
If anyone is struggling, you are not alone. You WILL and CAN overcome your hurdles 💗💗
I would love to know how you healed ❤️
Yeah I would love to know how you heal too! Life is so hard and still struggling.
Thank you 🙏
This is my EXACT story except replace law school with medical school. I didn’t make it thru. That just fed my self hate and anxiety and negative beliefs.

Sounds like me in nursing school. I absolutely hated it and continued nursing for 13 years. I'm 45 and am in a similar cycle now.
Thank you for this. I love your honesty. I can relate to this so much. At 41 I am in my third year of college and starting an online business.

I recently graduated from university and I'm struggling to keep my head above the proverbial water. My life has been rough, and in 2006 I sobered up. I've been working hard to turn my life around, and I'm 50. I'm doing my best to avoid "feeding the beast" of worrying about my situation while trying to find a way through my current situation.
Keeping it real, none of is is perfect but we accept responsibility for our mistakes and that's the difference.
Prayers and Blessings to you Mel Robbins.
I'm good thanks im doing good not hung over not sleeping around no drugs no nonsense no care what ppl think just doing me thankyou for the way you support ppl love,light,wairua,peace jave a awesome day
I relate to you so much...I had the same issues all throughout my life. I'm really only starting to get it now at 41. It never stopped me from getting the job, getting into a good college, or always going for what I wanted, but Id just end up fuckin it up, and usually quit, when it got too hard and complicated. I'd convince myself those things weren't for me, but I knew I quit cuz I messed it up by being hungover, or just scared and filled with anxiety. Who knew you could change it...I find it fascinating tho. Thank you so much for the inspiration. Big fan since 2020..like 2 different worlds between now and then.🙌👏👊❤
I love this lady❤️
You know what, Mel? I’ve paused this video on my TV, opened Utube app on my cell to write this comment and there you go… What you are doing, is the BEST, DEEPEST, MOST WONDERFUL AND MAGIC TALENT YOU HAVE. Every time I watch one of your videos, I start off ready just to listen to a wise advice, take it in and make it work for me… I’m always calm as watching this kind of videos is my daily routine of self- bettering myself… But few minutes in I burst in tears… and this never happens if it’s not your video. There’s something about how you do what you do, unique, almost magic, how you can penetrate a human’s soul through the screen. After your videos I feel like when I was a child, innocent, clean, open to the world… Thank you for your existence!
This was making me laugh watching you read the parts of your story from your time at the AG and New Mexico. I was cringing and smiling at the same time. I’ve been there, done similar things and when I tell the story now my reactions are the same. Love your TH-cam entries.
This is one of the best, down to earth videos I've watched.
I can completely relate to this, I was in med school, didn't feel like I belonged

Thank you Mel. I'm a bit older than you were.
I've had a great life.... now I am feeling lost. I found your channel.
Very helpful 👍
God bless you
I love you sweet lady! Your a wonderful gift to this world! I thank God for you!
That was me during college…just getting it now after trauma. Thank you 🙏🏼
You're awesome Mel. Thanks for your videos.
Oh. My. God. I have no idea why this video started playing but I’m glad I decided to listen to it. Wow, sounds like me.
Thank You Mel. I needed to hear this today! OMMMMGGGGG… I can’t believe I’ve been ghosting all these years. I wasn’t alone. Also, thank you for saying “ I love you”. I haven’t heard that in a long time! Thank you. 🙏🏾🥰😘
She's so wonderful 🌻🌻
Thank you for sharing your incredible story. So brave of you and an inspiration for everyone listening. I am sure a lot of people can really resonate with this.🌻
Mel you are a WARRIOR!!! In gratitude for your TRUTHS!!!
Self LOVE ROCKS….💖✨💓💓💓✨💖🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I am spiraling again, 10 yrs ago, I did the same thing OMG 😳 😱😡😬🙃
Beautiful. Thanks Mel xx
29:00 and on, PURE GOLD.
Thank you so much. I'm 23 years old and from the beginning, what I felt is she is reading my story right now .things are the same as me. thankfully now I can see and move on it.
Ok I felt like we all had coffee together , first comment disappeared but divorced@39 & listening …relatable , it seems my mind disappear when he left , dunno what happened in December ..Mel , I’m actually driving to Grand Rapids next month and will think of this story :)
…anyone else find it had to forgive yourself ?! I get it but I wish it was more instant .. 👋
Yes working on yourself is the way to move forward in life. I too have learned so much about good health and letting go of others even family that was not really family. Trust in you and never give up
I cried! Love you Mel! Thank you
I so identify with everything you talk about. It's never too late to begin loving yourself and; living your best life.
Thank you Mel! Thos hit home, needed it💝
I am still a public defender and having been through law school & the bar exam and luckily was one of those people that liked it, listening to your description of your daily law school routine, i know that you must have done enough to pass because you got the JD & passed the bar. And that is not easy. You did your homework and somehow you got the grades to make it through and then be able to go out and work as a public defender which by the way I think it's so awesome. But I know that if you didn't do any homework at all or participate in law school like the way it sounds in your description then you would not have graduated or passed the bar let alone become a bad ass trial lawyer. I would have loved to be sitting in the audience when you tried a case!!!
This was awesome to hear today! I'm glad to hear that I wasn't the only hot mess in my twenties! Keep doing what you do Mel. We appreciate it!
7 mins in and honestly.. Im in tears. I'm going through (and have been) the same thing you were experiencing at 23. It starts at 9am usually when it feels like my whole world is crashing. All those same questions.. why can't I get out of this situation Mario?? Why can't I just figure out what I need to do to move forward? Why do I have all these amazing qualities but I can't even figure out what the next step is? It's a pattern that affects you so deeply that it literally feels like you're treading water in a pool that you cannot get out of. For anyone experiencing something similar..when you feel like this and you feel like nobody understands, it's okay. There are many people in this world going through the same thing (Mel included) and you're not alone. Things will work out if you BELIEVE. You must believe. *edit* just finished. Ahhh..Mel you're just incredible. Thank you for being you. Thank you for impacting our lives.

I almost don’t want to comment because right now this video has 111 comments …. sorry for throwing off the number scheme. This was me in my 20s to a TEE. Many years of falling on my face, torturing myself, followed by twelve step recovery and a spiritual awakening and I’m in the most beautiful space of self love and gratitude and life success. I appreciate so much hearing that even the most “together” and accomplished people came from a similar place and I also relish in sharing my own recovery from sex and love addiction in hopes that others will find hope in it as well.

Love your authenticy Mel...you're such an inspiration to me to keep going in everything that I'm doing, both with myself and my future potential clients. Seeing this came at what feels like divine timing because I was/am at a breaking point and know I have to clean up my side of the street first before I can run across the street to help someone else....doing it in my authentic way! You are amazing! ~Ang
Loved this…exactly what I needed to hear ❤️
Thank you so much for this. So helpful as I figure out moving forward in my life after trauma therapy. Thank you 😊🙏💖
Wow you're so articulate & engaging I hope to be that way too. Thanks!
You're changing my life

I just discovered you about 3 days ago when TH-cam recommended an interview you did on another channel and I am so thankful TH-cam made that recommendation. I have only watched about 4 videos with you in it so far, but you have already helped me. The interview I watched you talked about using 5-4-3-2-1 and I have already accomplished things the last 3 days using that method and also broken my thought process when I start to head down a negative spiral in my head! Thank you so much for the work you do and for sharing your life with us. I am excited to watch all of your videos and learn all of your valuable tools.
You are absolutely right..
You are a Superstar Mel, I hope you're proud of yourself for having the courage to share your story. Had you not gone through that ,we would not be lucky enough to have our lives changed because of your powerful story. You're brutal honesty will change the way people see themselves and punish themselves for their past mistakes. The fact that you can laugh when you were being brave to bare your soul to us, just made it such a beautiful thing to watch! You are a champion Mel, Thank you.

How awesome to read your own book on your TH-cam channel. Or just a tv channel basically super personalized and customizable for every channel owner. So proud !!!
I've had about the same experience. Stopped after 2 years of law school. Only I didn't smoke and drink. 🤗
The Attorney General story was hillarious, yet relatable on so many levels. And the "I forgive myself for ghosting the Attorney General" line will live in my head rentfree from now on. Thank you, Mel, for sharing and for all your work.
I want to thank you for you you are making me understand myself and changing my mind in the patterns I have been programed for years. You are changing my life for the better and I am stronger and worth the best life I never thought I deserved. THANK YOU 😊 🙏 FOR YOU..
Love love love your videos!! They help me so much
Its in inside job!!!! I mean watch your self self talk!!!!! Thanks Mel. Your the best!!! HI 5.................
This video made me finally buy the (audio) book. Have been listening to your videos for awhile. 🙏
Hope you enjoy it!
I relate to this so much. At 32, I still engage in these self destructive behaviors.
Yup. This was me in law school as well while in the middle of civil war and alone.
Thank you thank you thank you
Thanks @Mel Robbins😊 it was Just an amazing uplifting act that I just wanted to listen to i will do things that I can do, the things that are in my hands which I can cover to be in college after craking neet ✨.
