    I'm a boy but I 100 percent agree on your take on male validation. Almost 100 percent of the time guys make fun of girls to lower their confidence in order to cause them to seek male validation. It's a sick and twisted game they like making women play. And sometimes, guys even make fun of other guys who don't have girlfriends. So the whole idea of male validation is just some sick game perpetuated by toxic masculinity. Keep being you, the world loves it xoxo

      Calling someone for emotional support is an amazing way to deal with emotions, if you need support, someone who listens etc. You will gain so much more from asking for help once it’s truly for help and not for validation anymore. I’ve recently gone through this change and support from others is so much more fulfilling now.

    33 year old here who has never struggled with this. Here is my secret:
    I know deeply that the one thing in the entire universe that I have to myself is ME and my experience. I am all alone in my mind, heart and soul experiencing the world uniquely. Even trying to explain what I feel or how I think or what I experience will never allow someone to truly experience it the way I do. It the sole gift we all have been given, being truly alone to witness life in a completely unique way.
    With that, every single thing about me has immense value to me. Like if you went out into the deepest of space and found an extremely amazing diamond that only exists once in the whole history of the universe. That's how I feel about myself. And that's how you should feel about yourself. I

      @@DariDariDari Yes. Observe every little thing that triggers you & explore why you feel triggered. What are the beliefs that you have behind the triggers. Recognize that nothing and no one outside of you is pulling the trigger but you. Triggers are opportunities to dig deeper within. Parts of you screaming to get your attention and be seen and heard. Also, whatever you judge, envy, or hate in another person is a repressed part of you aka part of your shadow. These are parts of ourselves we’ve come to disown or divorce within us from early childhood. These “parts” never ever go away and the more you repress them the more other people will reflect them back to you in your reality. Everyone is you pushed out - literal mirrors of your internal world. What you see in someone else, you can only see if it’s already in you. This goes for the good things we see in others too. The only true way to integrate your shadow self is to first be aware of it, accept it as part of you, and love it genuinely & unconditionally.

    My notes
    1.
    Goal is to merge your public and private self to stay authentic to yourself
    You have to relieve believe that you are worthy/desirable/smart enough and that you deserve whatever you want to an extent, where other's reactions and opinions do not matter to you.
    2.
    Put YOURSELF on the pedestal, only YOU.
    Say affirmations.
    Remember just because other women receive more male attention does not take away your beauty.
    Why do you even care about men?? They make questionable choices, have weird tastes and they are just unpredictable, you do not want people like them to validate you.
    Figure out attachment issues and work on them.
    Male detox.
    You accepting and liking yourself is enough. You are imperfectly perfect with some weaknesses and insecurities (they don't make you less worthy.
    3.
    Stop doing things for others and bending backwards for people and spend time with yourself, be alone and enjoy your solitude.
    4.
    No one cares about others opinions. It's a momentary thing that will pass, because they will go home and focus on other things and life goes on. Life is so busy in itself that it's not worth overthinking and focusing on these temporary happenings.
    Better yourself and invest in yourself.
    So what if someone hates you? Not everyone is meant for you and even the richest and moust famous people have been rejected and hated in their lives, it's normal.
    5.
    Identity every positive thing about yourself, your personality, qualities, achievments etc. and list them.
    Then list the negative ones and try to disprove them.
    Experiment with yourself and what fits you the best.
    Reject the past, always think of a new day as a new opportunity
    6.
    You are unique and only you know the real you.
    Validate your feelings and empathise with yourself.

    I'm so glad I found your channel.
    I love the point you made about how when someone says you should just get over something, they simply don't have all the facts and have lived a different life, building a differently wired brain. I used to take that so harshly...but when people say that to me, I can always think of a time THEY were freaking out over something that I personally can handle with ease...and I never told them they were "over-dramatic" for it. We're all just different and we need to stop viewing all others through the lens of OUR personal experience. We need to realize that what works for us may not work for others and it goes both ways.

      I am 18. I was in high scool from 12 to 16 and a few months being 17. I was bullied by 90% of the people in high school, and it never stopped me from being me, I had to talk to the "orientator" (I don´t know how you call the person that halps in high school. I think it is advisor) several times, and I ony had very few friends, but they are true friends, now I am in college and I haven´t seen my bullies and I still see my friends. What matters is that you have people who support you around you. I don´t care about others opinion because I grew up in a family that does not care. So I recommend you to continue watching videos like this one, everyday, stop following people that you compare yourself with, even if it is in appearence or what they have, and follow people who contribute to your life, to what you want to do, like this channel. And remember this: not everyone has to like, but everyone has to respect, and you have to respecte everyone. Try this thing called "Shadow work", it is something like journalism. And do not criticize other people in a bad way, even if it is in your head. Hope it helps. And even after you think you are fine, continue watching content like this so you don´t go back.

    I am so glad I came across your channel. I have been going through so much since January and it's been weighing me down. This one video helped me process some of the negatives that has been apart of my life. My past relationship had a really negative effect on my because I was going through so much and it was the final straw when the relationship ended. It effected my entire self-esteem and I had trouble forgiving myself and I've been so hard on myself. When you said to look at myself as my inner child and show more empathy it's like something clicked. I was able to realize that I was young, inexperienced, and I have never seen or been in a healthy relationship in my life so it shouldn't be so critical on how I acted because I was never taught how a healthy relationship should be like. I am far from forgiving myself completely and moving on but I feel like this is the first step. Thank you so much for helping me realize that💓

    Thank you so much for this! I have realized that the need for validation has become part of my response in everything that is happening to my life, where it got to the point where I no longer have a stand nor the knowledge of who I truly am as a person. Indeed, at the end of the day the only validation that we need is from ourselves. In the end, it is us that only holds the TRUTH of who we truly are and what we want. YOU DO YOU.

    My external validation stems from honestly being excluded by a group of people, being aloof because I had social anxiety back then. Now I'm being ignored and I feel like a brick wall to everybody. At school I don't fit in with people and I feel more lonely than ever. I try my best to connect with people now because I handled my social anxiety alot better. But I feel this intense feeling everytime I don't fit in or that I feel invisible makes me feel like I am not accepted by everybody. It actually is painful

Within a week of watching your videos and trying to implement the steps in my life, I felt like the weight was just lifted off of my shoulders. For over a year I’ve been going to therapy now and it helped me a lot. I was able to overcome most of my worst times but this last week was the first week I felt truly alive again. Your videos, your attitude and confidence in everyone around you helped me to find finally start my self growth journey. So thank you again for your videos.

    Thank you so much for this video!! That's exactly what I needed right now. I went through a terrible breakup not long ago, and since then I'm really working on myself, on detachment, on self validation and on being alone.
    In the past, I've always searched for validation in others. Especially when I was emotionally triggered or having an anxiety attack, I immediately called someone. Even if it is totally fine to look for support in other people, it was a big problem for me that I just didn't trust myself enough. I thought I couldn't care for myself, I needed someone else etc. and I was soo dependent on other people. In my last anxiety attack, I told myself to not call anyone but to sit with it by my own. It was really hard and uncomfortable, yes, but it was also unbelievable helpful to prove me that I can take care of myself. I've gained so much self trust since then!
    I also challenged myself to not date any men for one year, and I really like the term “male detox” that you used for that. Your channel and your videos help me a lot in my healing and self growth journey. I really appreciate them 🧚✨

I can’t expect people to treat me good and kind because we are not the same. It’s just now sinking in that not everyone has the same morals and values and therefore WILL NOT consider me as much I would consider them….and that’s actually ok. I should just focus on me and how I would want to be treated because that’s a reflection of me, their attitude towards me is reflection of them….good or bad. This just confirmed.

Let me tell you, I have never felt so happy & healthy in my life. I felt like I could laugh again and see the humor in little things. I felt more myself than ever, I really started to genuinely love myself.
    But I missed this component of self validation so when something bad happened, I got so caught up in whether I was “allowed” be have self worth enough to validate myself that I went running back to the people in my life..After I started talking to people again, it was like all the self confidence and love I built over the month was drained from me entirely.. now I’m back feeling worthless.

Because my self-love journey started with self-awareness. Taking a hard look at myself, my personality, why I am the way I am. It all starts with knowing yourself. I like the part where you said "male detox" because for real, I couldn't focus on myself, I lost sight of myself because most of my energy is spent on a guy who clearly doesn't even care about me enough.
    Thank you for this, I like how the universe showed me this video only after I've had those realizations already by myself, because it just shows that I'm right for choosing myself, following my intuition, trusting that I can be good just by myself, my choices, and everything else I have on me.

When you said "It's a never ending cycle" That hit different because I told myself when I was seeking external validation that I won't ever be satisfied because I'll keep wanting more and more, and you just said the same thing. I truly want to learn how to not care about likes, attention, approval, or being seen for every great thing I do. This is something I've struggled with for a while, and I want to get out of the cycle. I always see people with many followers and people gushing over them and it would make me jealous and want that. But then I had to look internally and see that what I was jealous of wasn't something normal, and that it had a deeper meaning. I will continue to work on myself and self validation.

    My energy always goes down when someone or some random person comments on my body, looks or anything. When I watched this video I really felt great and motivated. You are the best❤❤❤❤

    I would like to add that the hunger for validation might also result from maybe a little bit too much validation in the past. So people get addicted to it and feel like something is wrong when they’re not praised frequently

    I freaking needed this video. Going through a god awful breakup - just posted a new vlog about heartbreak & starting over. Your videos on solo dates really inspired me. Thanks for this

    came across this video and ngl i’m a teen who really struggles with self-esteem. i struggle with mental health and honestly i don’t know how to cope with it so i end up being emotionally dependent on people but i realised that people can’t love and care for u the way you can love and care for yourself. i’m trying to watch these videos and better myself as a person so i can actually meet my own emotional needs and love myself.
