- You know when you have a feeling that feels feely but you don't feel you fully understand it?
Turna out most or all of these are from a book by John Koenig, you can find it here (I am unaffiliated with him or his book)

You can’t lie to us about these ‘emotions’ Gregoriah, we know what you are
your funny and relatable comment made me experience a laughter!

My favorite part was probably when we talked about complex emotions that are hard to explain
Same. I myself am a big fan of complex emotions, the unexplainable ones especially.
The whole video?
@SebastianSeth that's what they meant
@@youtubeuserc6333this might sound weird, but do you ever get that feeling where you realize you’re…. alive? Specifically after “autopiloting” or staring into space?
@@alixx_legenddark_xx2819 yeah its just like, suddenly I am hyper aware that I actually exist, and I can control my body with my brain and my heart is beating.
Exulansis is when you discover a piece of media that's very obscure and has a very small fandom so you can't really talk to anyone about it
Honestly, agnosthesia is super relatable as a person with autism, I constantly look into my own behaviors to figure out how I feel, because my internal thermometer of emotion is broke af. Awesome video, as always mate.
This, I never know how I really feel
oh my gosh that is definitely what i feel too!! feels really…enlightening? knowing another person with autism has that
I deal with it A LOT and it actually causes me a lot of confusion and suffering. Do y’all think it’s a sign of autism? I find it so hard to describe my experiences so I sometimes fear I might not be getting the medical understanding for a (which ever) diagnosis because of my inability to know what a symptom is as I don’t know what “normal” feels like.
Agree, but I also have alexithymia so processing feelings or lack of understanding my feelings make it really hard
@@the_funky_wandrr Did you mean reassuring? Comforting?
I've had the "Hanker Sore" thing. I got that when I first met my current partner and even after 8 years, I still get it. For me it's similar to the feeling of seeing something so cute that it makes you angry to where its lmost like frustrating for some reason
I think its a factor in those that get caught up in the pitfalls of beauty culture too. Seeing someone more beautiful than you, knowing you can't have that beauty for yourself, the envy is so painful.
There needs to be a new word created for the disgust you have for yourself once you realize that your darkest inner struggle revolves entirely around something as superficial as your outward appearance😅
Damn , you can't even get angry on that to her cause she'd think you're flirting
"Why the fuc are you always so angry?!"
"Cause you're too fucking cute , god damn"
Same. I don't physically hurt from it but it definitely makes me angry but not in a jealous type of way. More like my senses are being overloaded and some of those feelings spill over into anger because their beauty can't be admired with just one emotion
The way I interpreted it is you see a pretty girl who is totally unique (my favorite kind of beauty), and the realization that you've got long odds of getting with her, you may not even see her again, and there's no one else like her can be pretty bittersweet.
yeah same, I kinda feel it as a pain in my heart, it's such a strange and annoying feeling to me lol, it's pretty rare but when it happens I really don't know what to do about it
and it's really not about jealousy or anything like that, that's it's own thing, there's a reason this has a whole different word and it's hard to explain to someone who hasn't experienced it
I am autistic and clinically depressed. I relate to exulansis on a deep spiritual level. And agnosthesia. The amount of pressure for a neurodivergent to think and feel like others in order to not seem too wildly out of place leads to a lot of these types of feelings. People don't understand us, and we try so hard to be something more easily digestible for the neurotypical folks around us that we eventually can't even understand ourselves. Not to mention, just the lack of people around us that relate to our experiences to give us bearings to define how we feel in the first place.
Did you feel exulansis when you go to therapy or not at all? Do you still go to therapy? I feel like even professionals will not be able to correctly understand me and it would be just a waste of money and mental effort trying to explain anything in person. Even if it was for free I'd have some resistance. I will probably never know if i'm autistic but i don't care really. I just wanted to take medicines for depression without needing to talk to anyone. I dont have suicidal thougths but i feel angry, bitter, apathy and sadness with life most of the time although I'm still able to laugh and feel joy sometimes.
@@Rafael-pi4md I tried therapy and ended up giving it up because, yeah...
Man this is so relatable, I was diagnosed 4 months ago with autism and I’ve suffer from anxiety and depression since about 15 and I’m 28 now
I constantly analyse and try to feel like everyone in order to seem more normal so I can fit in, i usually ultimately don’t even try as I wonder how another person talking to me or being my friend will benefit them
But yeah I always try and be the most easy and digestible person for someone to be around
womp womp
See I think the problem with that is, I think most people just don't know how to put themselves in others shoes, I mean it's not hard to take something from my life that is similar to your experience, but most people just don't have that in them. I'm not autistic, just messed up, I've given up on trying to get people to relate to me or care about me, even tho I can relate to them on some level.
I constantly think about the fact that I can only experience life through me, my life, my body, my mind.
And there is many things that I cannot do as ‘me’.
8:20 It didn't hurt, but once in my life, I have seen a young woman step out of a car while I was working as a valet who was SO DROP-DEAD GORGEOUS that I started to get dizzy. It was like tunnel vision, forgot what I'm doing, sorta sick to my stomach. Wild.
Bro got the kdrama main lead effect lmao
@@liagamer4265 sis legit got the love love fruit
Anime type of reaction 💀
I think the perfect example for agnosthesia is being in a relationship sometimes. Like, do I really like this person? Or are we going out because of a convenience or something?
I had a freaking mental breakdown like a few minutes ago because this exact thing 💀
Dude wtf? Agnosthesia is just confusion, isn't it?
spot on
Same with me
@@user-dl6ik1qn8y i think confusion is definitely a part of it, but the reason there’s another word for it is because it’s a lot more like overthinking. this person gave a good example, but a more common one i’d say is maybe applying to university, where you’ve known for years what school and program you want to do, but now that it’s time to apply you overthink and feel like you can’t trust your surface feelings because *just maybe* you don’t actually want to go to that program. it usually comes to people who have experienced any sort of “irl plot twist”, or if you’ve ever realized something wasn’t as you thought.
I've experienced the "sonder" feeling first way before I knew the word, or was even all that proficient in English.
When I was still a kid, I was with my grandparents a lot, and they lived in a somewhat tall building (I'm not from a big city).
There was one night, when I looked to the building on the other side of the road, and I noticed lights being on in some windows, but not in others (which is, of course, perfectly normal).
But at that moment, the realisation hit me that that was because there are currently people in there, and awake in there, and right away, at that very moment, I was pondering "What are those people thinking and feeling right now, those are all actual people, and they have their life, just as I do". Perfectly logical things, but when those first came to mind for me, it felt truly overwhelming.
Damn you were a deep thinker since childhood
Sonder really is just the momentary realization that many orders of magnitudes of things happen without your knowledge or any involvement in them. People do things on their own, they have just as many ideas and opinions on the world as you do, but you will only ever know a fraction of what they think. Other people have consciousness, although i guess that can’t really be proven. It is just realizing how big the world is.
@shhinysilver1720 Popular theory is trending towards consciousness being the culmination of billions of micro processes functioning together Inside your brain and body...like the obvious being the "left" and "right" brain. In reality, the brain is better thought of as a whole bunch of input/output segment that process data in a way which results in our "awareness". The constant swapping of information between each cell formation in your brain forms "consciousness'. We're genuinely very close to so many groundbreaking discoveries in almost every field right now.
I live in constant feeling of sonder on the background of my mind. I always thought that everyone thinks things like this all the time too. I don't like it and don't know how to make it stop.
Maybe its worse because in the modern age are expected to keep to ourselves, and they to themselves and we even want this over time. But all the same its unnatural because we deeply desire to interact with (not just view) every part of our world freely and further our plot that way.
I have this weird, complex sort of emotion sometimes (maybe it's related to Kairosclerosis, possibly some Onism too) when I go on vacation to a new or fun place. Everything is going great, I SHOULD feel happy, but there's some sort of strange sadness that I feel. It's faint, but very deep at the same time, and it will usually happen when I take a moment to relax and just "soak" things in.
Unlike Kairosclerosis, it doesn't seem to occur by me picking apart and trying to find what's bringing me joy, it just sometimes... happens. I usually just ignore it until it goes away because I don't want to harsh anyone's vibes.
maybe its the knowledge that its all gonna end soon, like youre somewhere really cool and you should be happy but subconsciously youre stuck in the fact that this happiness will be gone soon
I get that sometimes on holiday strangely when I first get there and I think it’s because everything is going so well and I know it’ll come to an end even though I’ve got the whole holiday ahead and it’ll be back to normality
@@luv4eva1111yes! You’ve said the same as me before I read your comment!
That feeling is not fun but I feel there must be a reason behind it and a way to address it so that you can enjoy your life better.
I think the word you might be looking for is melancholy
I'd love to see you go through the entire book, The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows. Would be fascinating! I love everything you do on liminal spaces and thalassophobia, but these topics are great too. There's something very calming about having someone to share the crazy internet with as it reflects the weird virtual lives we all live now.
I'm right here, sharing it with you. All interconnected, and stuff.
anemoia - one of my favorite words, nostalgia for something you haven’t experienced
Gnossienne really frustrates me. Just the knowledge that ill never fully understand ANYONE. I wish I could be someone else for a day (as in take on someone else's consciousness) just to see what it feels like, how different is their experience of the world compared to mine... I WANNA KNOW SO BAD
Seek to understand yourself fully, and you will never have that question again.
@@dixienormous8571nah, bro that is the whole point of his wish, it's because he can fully understand himself and how he feels he wants to see how different does someone else feel and how better or worse it is than his own experience, understand yourself fully and these questions will always pop up in your mind, I'm not so sure you'll get it but I wish you to do!
Personally I really enjoyed this vid. I was hoping Anemoia would appear, it’s like feeling nostalgia for a time you’ve never known. I get that from liminal spaces, especially with retro settings but modern 80s art (songs, photos, 3d renders) do it for me the most.
I get that for the 70s and 80s music. It hurts.
I just commented that, oh my God! I didn't know it had a name.
I just came here to comment that. For example, old songs in foreign languages
Stuff from all eras for me as I'm very nostalgic but especially music from the late 70s-early 80s.
I get that when I listen to the Duke or Elvis.
i learned a new one today cuz i feel this specific feeling wayyy too often but it’s fernweh aka, farsickness. it basically means you feel like you belong somewhere you’ve never been before. for me it’s mixed with nostalgia as well, like i’ve been there and i wanna go back there but i’ve never actually been yk? it’s really weird lol
It's just wanting to be somewhere.
I get that too, but I think it's just a mix of longing, nostalgia, and a boring life.
Sort of like the song "There's A Place For Us"....(somewhere....) I knew that feeling all too well when I was doing factory work as a temp.
Oh my God! Me Too! I wrote about it in a poem. I get that feeling when I hear certain types of music or look at a piece of art. I feel too nostalgic for a place I've never been to, a past I've never been a part of...I feel it so much that I mostly tear up.
as someone german i'd describe the feeling more as longing for travelling to new places and experiencing new cultures often due to a lack of fulfillment in your current day to day life
I've experienced many of these before and frequently, and it just makes me feel super down all the time.
I hope you get some good moments too, bro. I just try to accept things as they are. Doesn't solve everything, but it can help.
Try and occupy yourself with something
@@oscarriley9265I tried to do this, ended up being addicted to league of legends
Liminal spaces are like visual representations of dreams. The feelings you get while looking at them are some often associated with dreams
John Koenig actually invented many of these words in 2012 when he wrote The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows (and yes, including Sonder). His poetic narration in short videos he made are available right here on YT. They are amazing gems.
these words are greek bro
@@user-es4bo3tw4t As the original comment mentioned, SOME of the words were invented by John Koenig, and he used his knowledge of existing Greek and Latin roots to create new words.
@@user-es4bo3tw4t Most of them are Greek or Latin, but “sonder” is Germanic.
That was such a better explanation of liminal spaces than the "official definition" I've always thought about it how you described it. I feel there's multi types of liminal spaces. Some more eerie,obscure. Some more nostalgic & comfy.
I understand nodus tollens. I grew up feeling like a background character in my own story. As an adult, I feel like I went against the script, and found happiness.
The first thing I thought about for agnosthesia was figuring out your romantic feelings for someone. Many times you don't know if you truly like that person romantically or not, so you look at your behavior around them and try to understand your feelings.
I’m one of the people who relates to nodus tollens, my life feels to me like two books randomly spliced together, and now I am just living sort of with no notion of what the story is about or what its conclusion may be, walking through scenes of life that don’t feel like they belong, living in what feels like a dream. That’s it, it’s exactly like living in a dream.
you talking about the circles of people close to you and how much of ‘you’ you share with them, I call them ‘tiers’ and yeah, me too! I wish for someone to share everything with, but only someone who actually cares to know. I say “I’m a book”- not an ‘open book’; you have to deliberately seek information from/about me, but if you do, you’ll find it.
I relate too, unfortunately my situation is more darker, I was supposed to live a different life, but communism destroyed everything, my path and dreams were stolen, places I went don't exist anymore, olf friends are not here anymore some dead or living in other countries, I mean I always admired my parents but now I don't eve like my family, and yet here I am, following a script I hate, surrounded by people that think I'm someone I'm not, useless skills and with zero resources to change my life. The upside is, at least I know what I feel and what the problems are, now it's time to figure them out lol
When you got to "agnosthesia" I said "dude that's just alexithymia but isolated" lmao. I have alexithymia, so it made immediate sense to me, bc a good amount of the time I just don't know what emotion I'm feeling. I can tell if it's a positive or negative emotion and usually the intensity, but beyond that I'll have difficulty identifying the details beyond "this feels bad and I don't want to be feeling it"
Theyre not exactly the same ofc but similar
Haaaard agree!
Ah, that fits a lot better
same
Exactly this
7:44 I really struggle with this - I'm autistic and one of my symptoms is alexithymia. The more I think about the emotion I'm feeling, the more it seems to drift away, and I suddenly have no words to describe it. It also affects my hunger, thirst, and temperature sensitivity. E.g, I won't know I'm hungry until it starts to hurt.
Greg is a comfort CZcamsr if I've ever seen one.
I was screaming at the screen (not really) about that Tetris example when it came to Exulansis, so thanks for bringing it up. Back in HS I was teaching myself rudimentary game dev stuff but I could never EVER talk about it to anyone because all the kids my age were just like "get a life dude" about it. It sucked.
very relatable
didn't have internet ?
hs kids are gonna be dumb.
I remember when humans made history by one of us becoming the first official cyborg. No one else at school gave a shit except my best friend who found out from me. Most other people didn't even want to hear it.
Online there were dozens of people talking at once about that news and similar developments - even back then. In real time - not just posts.
"these are mostly made up"
They're words, they're all made up.
You're still throwing away the meaning of what saying they're made up is about. Surely you wouldn't refer to the word "meaning" as made up, for example. The words in the video are different from the words we typically refer to as "not made up".
Real
@@ric6611Nope. All words are made up. It doesn't matter whether or not they are commonly used.

I copy-pasted my comment because you missed my point so much that you basically just said the same thing as my comment replied to.
11:11 this video had me passing the blunt to myself, pausing, talking to myself, and putting names to feelings I didn't know had names. Definitely making me use 69% of my brain rn.
Nodus Tollens, it's like realizing that you don't know why you go to school or work or have a currency or eat unhealthy foods, thinking of how in the universe it doesn't matter kind of. And the bit about side passages, is like small side quests in life that don't actually matter and you don't understand them but still have to do and stress about.
For some reason, when I eat, I start feeling a sense of being disconnected. I start realizing how I'm just chewing and swallowing stuff, people are walking around, eating their own things, and the flavors I'm experiencing, the texture I'm feeling, how the body feels and reacts to every little thing. I start to feel uncomfortable in my own skin, I don't feel like I'm in that moment. It's like post nut clarity where you start questioning why you went out of your way to orgasm, but instead why am I eating and alive and doing the things I do. And then when I'm all done I go back to a relatively normal headspace, it's so weird lmao
I also will many times change between 1st and 3rd perspective, and will start saying you when I am talking about myself, and vice versa. I literally started doing that when typing this comment and it reminded me of this weird thing lol
I thought i was the only one that did that i never expected to hears ut from someone else like that i do that its like i see myself doing something without bein pg in first person pov like zooming out if your character in a videogame if thar makes since
@@uselesscontent214 I also tend to use "we" a lot, too, and in general I just mess up or unintentionally misuse pronouns like these; you, I, we, he, she, whatever it may be, it is very odd lol. It's like viewing the world in a different perspective seemingly at random, but I'm not actually thinking of it like that when it happens.
If you don’t feel that icky nodus tollens, congratulations! Your life probably hasn’t been a total rollercoaster
Jesus loves you all, stay safe out there.
whats that emotion where you feel like there used to be birds to wake you up in the morning outside the window, but they're never chirping nowadays? It's like a bad kind of nostalgia because it just reminds you how colourful life WAS.
That's called winter :D
(Joking, of course)
Oh yeah THOSE BIRDS I know that feeling !!!
It's not winter.
d e p r e s s i o n (nah I'm kidding (or am I?))
yess omg especially mourning doves
Defs one of the more genuinely interesting videos I've watched from anyone in a while.
That fresh air of an actual new topic to explore
I've had hanker sores for cats before.
I believe the pain from "Hanker Sore" comes specifically from finding someone so attractive that you feel as though you do not deserve their reciprocation, which can cause some very painful heart palpitations. This is coming from my own experience.
Exulansis is why I dislike explaining psychedelic trips, especially when it comes to DMT.
@@fyighfreakI feel you, it makes no sense to do so to the average person. Best to explain it to others who have experience with psychadelics.
Or perhaps it's a spin on the classic "It's so cute I just wanna squeeze it!"
The attractiveness is something that is so alluring that you can't help your attention being pulled toward it. The pain comes from having to physically force yourself to NOT run after them or focus on something else?
6:01 this is LITERALLY me. no i am not joking i feel this emotion ALOT. it is *_literally_* me.
Sameee and it’s so hard dealing with it, especially with heavy topics. Sometimes it makes me fear who I really may be, it suckss
fr, it gets frustrating for others when I am like this too😭
When someone asks you "did you like it?" and what you really want to answer is "i...don't...know..." not because you want to hide the real answer from them but because this is literally the real answer, you dont know what you feel
1:39 I kinda feel this sometimes, but sometimes the happy is just too good to pick apart. Like when you’re playing Halo CE online or a really good game with a fun gameplay loop, and you become aware that you don’t wanna stop playing. I think the great thing about having that realization while playing a game is that you don’t have time to dwell on why you’re happy, the game just makes you continue doing the thing that makes you happy to progress
Who up sondering rn??
Yes sir 😭
Yup💀
Still don't know what this magical feeling is I feel when I watch the BroDudeMan, but maybe one day he will make a video about it.
I would say it, but I think if I did I'd be banned from youtube...
One of my favorite emotions is when you go through your entire life experiencing Exulansis about a certain thing, but finally find the rare person who can relate and then get to experience the excitement of having created this unique new bond.
Kairosclerosis: I actually often feel this, especially when I would realize that that happy moment would be gone like happy moments in the past and then that I would only go back into my sad lonely life again after these moments.
I love the way you actually "react" to the things you react to, unlike many other youtubers. It's mainly you expressing your thoughts and telling your experiences to these things and just a small part of the actual original content, yet it's so interesting to listen to you. Great job man.
yes another video! Now I can rest easily. Your reaction videos are always perfect to close out the day. I dont know what it is. They are just relaxing to watch and I feel like I dont need anything more to soothe my brain. I can stop watching endless videos on and on and on and finally sleep :D
Agnosthesia is so relatable. It kinda comes randomly, like many feelings and emotions, like I wouldn't be able to give one example about when it comes up, but it does come up. It's like a state of confusion but not.
Gnossienne....How can one truly describe what is in your heart, soul , and mind to yourself or any other person. It's always changing. And no one is really interested in knowing every single facet about another. Good video, Greg.
This video almost felt therapeutic, thanks for this!
The feeling after seeing success is strange. You feel sad but happy at the same time and just off
You are totally spot on with all your explanations. Good job!
This video has made me really like you. The way you try to understand and relate, while being honest about when you can't, makes you seem to be a very kind and intelligent person. You're very cool. More people should be like you.
The kenopsia got really strong for me right when the covid lockdown hit. I lived right next to a big mall in a city center, and I had to go to the grocery store located in it the first day of official lockdown (closest store to me at the time). The mall used to be bustling with people, but now it was almost completely empty. It was an eerie experience to go grocery shopping that day.
Regarding sonder: I have been jobless for a year now (actively searching though), and I'm slowly starting to feel very isolated. Whenever I hear someone talking on the phone in public transport like on the train about their work, I get the sudden realization that this stranger probably has a way more complex life than me.
Why do I feel bad for you-
@@DDTheProOfPros Don't 😅 I'm doing alright for now ☺ I still have some money in the bank account
@@JUMALATION1 I wish you luck!
@@basic6735 Thank you! :D
i have felt feely feelings that i cant fully explain, thanks for giving back the feels of those feely feelings, greg
This is probably my favorite video of yours. Very thoughtful and thought-prompting.
I get the last one but in reverse. Sometimes someone close to me says or asks something and it's so strange or nothing like who I am, my reaction is this shock that they really don't know me. And nobody ever will. It sometimes results in an identity crisis when I then question if even I know who I am.
Very enjoyable concept! I've heard about these weird feelings but some of these were new. I've experienced most of these as well, it's so bizarre how we just live our lives and suddenly freeze to think about LIFE. I think most people should experience these more often, but sadly I'm afraid that they really don't. (When we look at the world and human behaviour in these crazy times)
Also I loved the ending of this video, when you left the chair I KNEW something was about to happen 😆😆
8:25 something similiar called limerence is a real word, which is like wanting somebody romantically so much that its depressing you and emotionally painful
There's an easy way to explain kind of a mix of Catropic Tristesse (3:43) and Gnosienne (last one);
YOU know who you are. Every other person that knows you or knows of you, see you differently.
So in a way you are *so* many different people at the same time, while the *you* you is someone that only you know yourself.
...And yes, people can be so beautiful that it hurts. It kind of feels like cold, swaying tingles inside de bones and chest for me personally -:)
Edit: A more pessimistic way to say the first thing would be;
- Everyone you have ever met or dealt with has a misconception of who you are. The same goes for the ones you think you know; they only know themselves. 🤓
damn
I’d add, people who haven’t explored their ‘self’ much, and especially for those who have (who learn you’ll _always_ be discovering More of You/refining your idea of who that is), also have misconceptions about themselves!! Every moment is a new ‘allowance’ of all You can potentially Be. Every moment is a chance for us to assert Who We Are, and discover through the preferences our experiences reveal, more about that person 🥰
Yes you are right,absolutely everyone has a different perception of you, i only have 1 friend that is all knowing and can sense my "core being" which is uncanny and sometimes i avoid her for that reason but I Love her dearly.
Ive also felt that pain of finding someone that im attracted too its excruciatingly to the point of physical pain. Its horrible and debilitating. 😢
Actually who you think you are is false too. Most people think they're above average and that their beliefs are true. But they're not. So no person can actually know who you really are, including yourself.

I have a copy of The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows which I think is where these terms originally come from.
It's a interesting little book.
yeah, I chose my favorite word from that book!
You're right, this was interesting to think about. Good one.
Nodus Tollens I understand... There's no purpose to our lives and seeing it unfold is the only thing that gives meaning to it. If it's interesting enough.
My life didn't go as planned either. The birth was already problematic, having the umbilical cord around my neck twice. At every school there were problems handed to me and I just had to solve it alone. Teachers that just hate me, children that just despise me, a brother that hated me to my core and vice versa.
Eventually finding love, multiple times, but those relationships end abruptly. Somehow I still had enough social connections to end up with a life partner.
Makes zero sense and I feel it every day. The feeling that I shouldn't be alive.
As someone who is constantly in existential crisis mode, this video really got me thinking....which I should be doing less of but I can't help it 😅 LoL. Please do more videos like this 🙏 I'm a new subscriber ❤ and I really enjoyed it 😊
8:15 That's the feeling I often experienced but couldn't explain. When I see something so cute or wholesome that it overwhelms me to the point of having physical pain in my chest.
EXACTLYY or even hiding ur face or whatever and screaming inside to look at it and you get nervous
What's it called when you realise no matter what you do you won't change anything and you are just one of the billions of people who will be forgotten after suffering your entire life chasing nothing
Whenever Greg makes a new video, I drop what I’m doing and watch it
I also feel sonder every time I'm stuck in traffic too! Like just look around at all those people and realise that they have a destination too, a journey, their hopes, dreams, aspirations and losses. Quite an enlightening moment.
10:35 when people are like 'it's just a game/movie/show, why do you care so much?' like why tf do we care about anything then?? people just naturally connect with things, imagine how boring life would be if we _didn't_ talk passionately about media or simple (in the grand scheme of things) that we enjoy
This showed up right now when I needed it!
I recall often getting this mystical, 'something special awaits'/'there's more to this life than you can imagine' when looking at a deep blue evening sky while out in slightly cold air for a walk.
bro i love ur eyes they look so pretty
Dude such a good point with being sonder. We realize it but sometimes we randomly feel is
genuinely underrated, keep up the grind dude
AGNOSTHESIA IS SO REAL
For the longest time i was caught up wondering how i felt about a certain person which I eventually realized that I did really like them but for a while i wasn't sure if it was just strong platonic feelings
i have a feeling that has not been talked about, and it's hard to explain. but a few times a day, my vision just looks like it is super high FPS or just time speeds up by like 10-100% more, or sometimes both. This only lasts a few moments, maybe 5 seconds to 2 minutes. My mind also feels very clear and my memories feel easier to access and feeling in my body are higher FPS. the sound is higher FPS and so is proprioception or whatever it is called, and my sense of balance is stronger and everything. it is just a super weird phenomenon and what i described i think is a pretty good illustration of it.
ive felt nodus tollens recently. had to flip the script and change my perspective on myself, my life, and how i act towards others, and im making changes to hopefully completely change my life for the better.
your examples of these words helped so much more than the actual definitions, thanks a lot. probably the best first impression I've had of a youtuber
Nodus Tollens - Maybe I know. I became disabled in my 20s with pain, fatigue, and a host of symptoms. It got worse and worse and still has to where my pain is classed severe. My life is less sensical as it goes on - I can't have kids or a job or anything normal. Some days the NT is harsh, other times i can see that I just have a really different life. Some people love such weird different lives that it doesn't make sense but they are still adapted and happy. I don't get notifications for some problem so I don't write this for replies - more like I wanted to give food for thought.
POG i love ur content. I went into this video like hmm idk seems kinda boring but actually got engaged more than i thought I would. When you said the thing about the person who beat tetris I was like YES! YES, jeez why can't people understand that other people's interests/passions/ambitions are valid? Props to you for putting that into words and explaining that it's just decency. Seriously thank you
This was a really awesome and mind-provoking video you should definitely do more of them.
good to see you mr brodudeman. always a pleasue
I feel hanker sore when greg uploads
I feel a bit more understood or at least have a better understanding of all the complicated feelings and thoughts that I have all the time about the world.
Also, I've never played Tetris but someone beat the game after 34 years and the kid is obviously overjoyed about it. I was a little pissed when people started saying things like "it's a life goal" or "go outside more" it's probably not his life goal and he was just really excited about it. I think one of the worst things people can do is make someone feel bad about what they’re excited about. There’s literally no reason to put someone down about something they’re excited about-as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone or affect anyone negatively. Anyways, I hope the kid isn’t too discouraged about the negative things people said. 🙄
Anyways, the videos are really enjoyable and I'm excited to see what things you do next 😊❤️
2:38 best examples are nights in the bigger city where it literally is empty, especially winter. I just love this feeling
Hey Greg, I definitely think a lot like you and I actually get very anxious over what I can and can’t do and see it’s a frustrating feeling. I really enjoy your content. 😊 🇦🇺
Does anyone else here have this emotion:
It's a mix of wonder, curiosity, and catharsis. It happens when the world arounnd me is silent. It makes me wonder about stuff. It's like an existential dread but it isn't bad.
I think I know what you're talking about. I like those rare days when my neighbourhood is eerily quiet. Not even ambient sounds in the distance. It feels like it's just me in this abandoned world, and I can really drift off in my own thoughts.

I have a fan in my room on all the time because I can't handle silence for long periods of time. However sometimes I turn the fan off and it's really quiet.
Honestly, you could make a video called "cool words from the dictionary" and just hand pick 10 words to talk about. Let us know how you really feel about them, dawg.
Wow I really like this! I have so many feelings and I'm like "there has to be a word for this but how would I even search for it"
It's good knowing that we can put a finger on these feelings by labeling and defining them. I'm more at peace now.
Some of these I really relate
Hanker Sore: Being in love with someone who causes you that is a hard thing to get over with, but surely is worth every single moment
Sonder: This both amazed and haunts me. It causes me to have empathy/understanding, but also great remorse/fear
Honestly, if this turns into a series, I’ll be happy. Definitely one of my favourite video of yours
I'm feeeeling happy cause there's a new GBDM video!
What a gem! Right before going to sleep!
I own the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, and it's one of my favorite books. I always find myself going back to it
Really enjoyed the video, I really like these deeper kind of videos
This was a fascinating video! YES, please do more!
I really enjoyed your night feeling video, so it's great to hear you'll be doing more, in that style.
Loved this concept!❤
I like the more thoughtful videos. Depth is always good.
Keep up the content Greg!!!
I have participated in a fright night at our school a few times and when we were taking all the stuff down after the people had left you would sometimes walk through one of the abandoned hallways you know so well. That is what is meant by kenopsia ofcourse. I've always loved that. It made my school more a part of me as a human being. It stopped being a place I passed through and started being a place I lived in. Btw riding our bikes through the hallways with the tires squeaking on the floors was great aswell.
Man this is way too relatable to me
