- Hello, dear friends ❤️
If this video meant something to you, please give it a like and share it with others ❤️
I'm so sorry it's been such a long time since I last posted. This last month has been extremely difficult-- I'm actually really struggling with being alone. I was always scared of this...but I had hoped it wouldn't be this bad. The hardest part of being alone isn't missing my significant other and it isn't even feeling lonely, rather it's being forced to come face to face with all my wounds, shortcomings, and unhappiness. It's all come crashing down the last few weeks and, as much as it scares me to say, I think I'm depressed.
Don't worry, I've gotten help. I've also tried new things-- from taking myself to the movies to signing up for a self-defense class, to learning French, I've been searching for little bits of light in my days...and IT'S WORKING. Slowly but true.
This video is the journey I've just described. Honestly, it feels like the most important video I've ever made.
Thank you so very much for being here with me on this journey ❤️
Big hugs & love,
Morgan

So glad you were brave and reached out to friends as well as a therapist. They are all gifts! We are all rooting for you and care about you. ❤
From one to another, we got this and we will overcome even in the rough of times. Sending virtual hugs. 🤗🤍

Dear Morgan,
I think this is my favourite video of you ever because you are so honest and vulnerable and I feel so seen here. Thank you for sharing this hard time with us. I can only imagine how hard it is to be so vulnerable on the Internet for thousands to see. I struggle with depression and anxiety for several years now. Seeing you opening up about your struggles helps me to feel less alone in my own struggles. I am so glad that you found a therapist to help you! Going to therapy is maybe the best thing that I ever did my life. It‘s hard. Sometimes it really sucks and it‘s no fun, BUT seeing the immense healing and growing I did in the last years since I started therapy, made the uncomfortable feeling of therapy totally worth it.
I wanna thank you Morgan because in my darkest days your words and your videos are often a big source of comfort and happiness to me. They bring back a little magic and light in those dark days. Your words and your outro often make me tear up because getting to hear that I am worthy of enjoying my life and that I deserve to be happy from a person I never met face to face helps me so much and mean so much to me. I can’t express how thankful I am for your videos. Sending a big hug and lots of love to you!
So and now a few things that help me when I am depressed and feel very anxious (I hope some tips that might help you Morgan and the other lovely people in the comments):
1. I think you saw this one coming: Go get (professional) help. If you think you are mentally not on top, go get professional help. If you think you are not ill enough to get a therapist that’s… just no. I thought that for a long time and now I know I needed help and I still need help. You are worthy of help and of love. If you feel you need help, get help. Don‘t be afraid that you waste the time of your therapist or you take the place of someone who might need it more. If you need it, you deserve to get it. Some people need ten hours of therapy and they are healthy and happy again. Some people need more and that is totally fine too. And you lovely people still reading this, please note it is never to late to get therapy. My boyfriend is a therapist and his oldest patient is 84. Better start late than never. And if you are afraid to contact a therapist, ask your mum/ boyfriend/ best friend/ grandma/ in-laws/ dog (okay maybe not the last one) to call and make an appointment with a therapist for you. I was to afraid to do that, so my mother-in-law helped me with that.
2. Get yourself a companion: a dog, a bird or a stuffed animal, you can cuddle with to not be so lonely on your darkest days. I have my buddy (a stuffed animal named Herbert) right by my side if I am anxious and depressed.
3. Take care of yourself: if you lay in bed all day and doom scroll on your phone to eternity, have a emergency plan nearby you can look at. The plan will help you get out of your rabbit hole and helps you if everything to overwhelming. Points on my emergency plan: get up, open windows, brush my teeth, put a fresh t-shirt on, drink a big glass of water and eat something. This helps me to feel a little bit better.
4. Make easy comfort foods: I have a few meals that are easy to make. If I am depressed I often struggle to eat anything although I‘m super hungry because preparing food is to big of a task for me. So two of my easy to make meals are porridge with blueberries and roasted vegetables (buy pre-cut frozen veggies, put oil, salt and pepper on them and throw them in the oven). Takes both maybe three minutes to prepare and I can eat something and fuel my body.
5. Read a book. Maybe one of your favourites?
6. Play animal crossing. Helps me to be calm and escape into a cozy fantasy.
7. Watch a Morgan Long Video. Or any other video of your favourite CZcamsr.
8. Watch funny animal videos on CZcams. In my darkest days, these were a life saver.
9. Make things for you as easy as possible. I struggle with cleaning a lot and are really fast, really overwhelmed. So I tried to make as easy as possible for me. I love cluttercore and the interior of French chateau but that would overwhelm me so quickly, so I try to keep my apartment as minimalistic as possible to make cleaning easier for me.
10. Last but not least: remember that this is one day. There will be better days again. Don‘t be so hard on yourself. You deserve to have shitty days. You deserve to rest. You deserve to take time to heal. You deserve your own forgiveness and compassion that you don‘t get anything done on shitty days. As I said, there will be better days again.
So thank you for reading this and I hope this will help a person here in the comments.
And thank you for everything that you do, Mo.
Sending hugs and kisses to you Mo and to all the other lovely people reading this.
Love
Steffi
(And sorry for any mistakes I made while writing, it‘s nearly two a.m. here and English is not my first language)
This is such a beautiful message. Sending you love! ♥️
@@alexandrakropaneva Thank you ❤ Sending love right back to you
Wonderful message, Steffi. Well done for getting help and thank you for sharing such a brilliant list. I heartily agree with every one of your points! Getting a dog saved my life! ❤
@@tabithasuzuma ❤️
Such a perfect and helpful list. Wonderful for you to take the time to put that together. Thank you!
It’s very reasonable and normal to have extreme sadness if a spouse has been gone for two months. The body physiologically would feel like a divorce happened. Separating when necessary for jobs and to pay the bills is one thing, but having a husband go off just to have fun and “find himself” is another thing. It’s abandonment. You’re completely normal to be sad about that. I mean this in all love even though many might not believe me or take it that way. I love your videos so much.
I agree with you ....I have kept it to myself but yes everything you said ......It absolutely is abandonment .....I will continue to keep my feelings about Landon to myself and just say I support and love you Morgan
Agreed! I’m surprised there aren’t more comments like this one. Also, it’s one thing for him to take a few weeks “off” but 6 months leaving her all alone with all the home responsibilities just so he goes have fun and finds himself is inconsiderate to say the least. She deserves so much more. 😢
This is a brilliant video. I was very worried when this opened and I was talking out loud to you saying "You are describing depression. Please get real help" I'm so glad you did!! And I truly hope you tell yourself all the things you tell us. Do you know how special you are? Your gentle soul will need to work hard in this rough world to stay gentle. But gentle doesn't mean weak, and I think you're learning that during this wildflower summer. Cheers to you for all your hard work! 🌼
I lost my partner of 32 years three months ago. While I am not diminishing your feelings in any way, you at least have the comfort of knowing Landon is coming back. Take comfort in that because I cant tell you what a raw, gut wrenching, unbearable pain it is when you know they aren't coming back. xxx
Going to the movies alone is the best… once you’ve done it a couple of times you’ll love it.
Like many other people here :), I've been thinking about you too and wondering if you're doing ok. It's not the same as having someone physically there, but there is a whole community out here that really cares about you, loves you, and is here to support you.
Please take care of yourself, that's the greatest priority. 💞
it takes a lot of courage to admit your loneliness and share the journey. i’m glad you’re getting help. you’re also helping a lot of us in the process. we’re here for you ❤
I like going to the movies alone 😊. But the one thing I don’t like is going out to dinner alone. I’m ok with lunch alone though.
Depression is such a difficult thing to pick yourself up from, especially when you’re living alone. It’s so brave to make the decision to get help, let alone to film it so you can also help other people know that they are not alone. All the toughest journeys lead to the most growth 🌻
Morgan, I am so happy and proud of you for seeking help from therapy. I have watched every single video on your channel and was a patron for a time and have noticed signs of depression long before Landon left. I never commented because I didn't think it was appropriate for a stranger on the internet to suggest that you seemed depressed. I hope you will continue your therapy and continue the work of loving yourself because you are loved beyond measure and you were created to live abundantly.
I am a silent subscriber but I wanted to share this prayer with you: "Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work or watch or weep this night, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend the sick, give rest to the weary, bless the dying, sooth the suffering, comfort the afflicted, shield the joyous; and all for your love's sake. Amen."
We often pray for those who are suffering but forget that the joyous need just as much prayer. Morgan, you are such a joyful person and the pain you feel is valid and does not change who you are. I pray that your joy will be protected, although you face hardship, so that you may continue being a light to our world. More deeply, I pray that you will come to find joy in the Creator who crafted your wondrous soul and find comfort in being alone with Him.
I'm 43...and tired of the battle of depression and anxiety...I related to so much of what you said and are going through. Right now I'm crying lying in bed. I miss my old talk therapist (I moved for work). Thank you for taking the time and effort to share....I was feeling so alone and you made me want to keep trying.
❤
As an older woman who is a psychotherapist, and has clinical depression that has been treated - I am so glad you did this video. Thank you for sharing yourself authentically, and encouraging others to do the same. I have spent well over 15 years in various psychotherapies and intensives, and I can say the emptiness and the big hole in my gut is gone.... life is wonderful! Also if you find you have "classical" clinical depression, I hope your therapist refers you to a psychiatrist for screening for the appropriate medication. It is an amazing thing when science helps. And it is the only medicine I take, and that is after fighting it for almost a decade. (I am very much into "natural," so it took a while for me to know it was the best. I now have a whole different life.) I am so happy to see all the great things you are experiencing and adding to your life at this time.
Fighting decades with depression is very different than learning to cope with new feelings in a new life situation, if she learn to deal with it she will be stronger than ever and her personality will grow - as we see already. She is amazing to deal with her feelings and accepting them, talking through, reading about and getting help is the only way. If she starts to take medications only to escape totally natural feelings weakens not only her personality but also her physical health. Strange that somebody who is supposed to be a psychoterapist doesn't see the difference, and to believe, crying and feeling helpless during the adaptation time to a new life situation (which is temporary, Landon will come back soon) needs medications, this is very-very wrong.
Learning French, going out with friends, doing empowering sport is the best and most intelligent remedy in her situatution, it's building her and not ruining, she is absolutely amazing and a perfect role model!
And actually I only came to the comments section to recommend the books of Antoine Laurain, a French author also translated to English, who has light hearted, very frenchy stories. That's what she needs, happy moments, not the dark hole of medications, she is not sick, she is just a human who has human feelings.
@@laurac2783 You are not accurate in saying that IF she would be diagnosed with clinical depression and was to take an antidepressant she would, as you say " escape totally natural feelings weakens not only her personality but also her physical health!" This is not true! Research actually shows that it is the opposite. Antidepressants do not change one's personality! If the person is appropriately diagnosed with clinical depression, the medication actually enhances the expression of one's personality. And those who have clinical depression and have not been appropriately treated have more physical health symptoms. And I am concerned that you are deciding that you have the training and information necessary to make this statement! All of the things that she is doing to enhance her life are fantastic, and so is her starting therapy. My comment here was in support of that. I am not able to diagnose by just watching her video - nor would I attempt to. I was making a comment in support of the possibility of the symptoms she was experiencing. She may very well gain all the growth she desires from her talk therapy, and not have clinical depression. I never once said that she is "sick." Mental health, and treatment for mental health, is not about calling someone "sick." Medications, when appropriately used for treatment when someone has clinical depression, are life savers. It is true that not all who experience what she has experienced have clinical depression. Medications also are not "a dark hole!" They are quite the opposite. People who have clinical depression are also "humans having human feelings". I don't know where your comments are coming from - but they are concerning. And being someone who has clinical depression I know the experience of before and after - and the comments you have made are not appreciated for myself or for others who have a mental illness that is treatable. I think that this could be an example of what can happen on social media when there isn't a real discussion back and forth. You may be taking my intent and comments out of context.
You have no idea Morgan how much this video spoke to me. I’ve never cried this much while watching a CZcams video. It just goes to show the impact your words and your message has that it doesn’t even matter if there is a screen between us. It feels so raw , real and present. Sending all my love and heartwarming wishes your way❤
You got this !! 💓💓
Morgan, I miss you, and I am sure everyone does on here. When you feel like it, we would so love to hear from you again. Love and hugs, from Jilly & Madge in West Devon, England. xxx You are not alone.🥰
Morgan you are dealing with being alone and also grieving the change in your life situation right now. I think you have done a remarkable job of taking control of what you can do and focusing on you. This is an opportunity and you have so much on your side. I am 70 years old with lots of life experience. I see in you a person full of possibility. You are so beautiful inside and out, creative, smart and more confident than you realize .Your dog loves and appreciates you. You are in my prayers. Thank you for your loving heart.
We’re here standing beside you 💓 It’s okay to not be okay sometimes. I totally understand how depressed when you living alone. Please know that you are loved by this world and especially by us 💓💓💓💓
Hi Morgan! I know you’re having a hard time this summer, and I just wanted to let you know that your videos are such an encouragement to me. Even when you feel alone, you have a whole group of people here who genuinely care about you. I love your honesty about what’s really going on in your life
p.s. I love the blue butterflies you’ve been using in your thumbnails 🦋🦋
I’ve been thinking of you lately and hoping you are well. As we come upon “cozy season” and I’m decorating with leaves and candles and having my tea, my thoughts are with you ♥️🍁🍂 ☕️😊.
I am crying along with you because this was me last year. You are not alone, you are seen. We are wishing you all the best Morgan ❤️
What an adventure that Landon is on. But, OH!, sweet friend, the adventure *YOU’RE* on!!! So pleased you are growing and healing and helping yourself experience your best days -thank you for sharing your journey with us. You are in my thoughts and prayers as you go❤
this is one of the most healing touching vlogs I have seen in so long. thank you for making this, it helped heal me.
Hi Morgan. I'm going through depression at the moment. I was happy for 3 years and something has made me fall again.
Thank you so much for this video. I feel less alone due to your honesty xx. Sending love your way honey ❤
Wow Morgan, you are going through the most beautiful transformation, and allowing us to share in this intimate and amazing time in your life. To say thank you doesn’t do your process justice. You’re doing great - even through the down times which we all have. Stay the course oh wondrous you, we’re here 😊
Depression can be scary to recognize and admit but it takes the strongest part of you to admit it and get help ❤we are here for you and we are so proud of you for this growth
I don't normally comment, but seeing you cry makes me cry. I wish there was some way we all could help you, Morgan. But with this being the internet, all I can do is send you my heart full of love, best wishes, and prayers for comfort, healing, and peace.
Although It's very hard for me to understand how you fell apart completely just because your partner is not there anymore for a while. I'm very much inspired and proud of you for being so honest and brave showing this to everyone, showing your vulnerability. You are so strong and admirable. Just because I don't understand this, doesn't mean other people don't go through this, and you are helping them by sharing your journey. You are amazing.
☀️ keeping you in my prayers at difficult time. You’re doing great Morgan, your feelings are real and valid . 🌻☀️🌻 sending you sunshine .
I really appreciate your vulnerability and honesty. I struggle as well and I always think if I were beautiful, if I was younger, if I was thinner, and I look at you a beautiful young lady and I see you struggle too and it makes me feel less alone. That it’s ok to be who I am because you are who you are. I hope that makes sense. Thank you once again for just being you. 🌻☀️
We wish you all the best, Morgan. Stay safe.
Your videos are an absolute delight, and I want you to know that you've become a true companion during my quieter days. Thank you sincerely for sharing your wonderful content. Even though we may be miles apart in different countries, please know that I genuinely care for you and keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Your positive impact reaches beyond borders, and I'm grateful for the connection we share through your inspiring videos. Wishing you all the best! ❤
I took a women’s self defense class before I traveled solo for the first time and it was so empowering, love to hear that it felt the same to you too. As always, thanks for being authentic and vulnerable with us. 💕
I just subbed to your channel. I was struggling with mental health for about 3 years. Going in and out of crisis, depressed, I would push ppl away and isolate myself. It got worse when I did that because I got stuck in my head and would not allow people to pull me out of it, unless it got to the point of life and death for me. I just turned a corner like a month ago. I feel better and have not gone to the crisis unit for a while now. Im spiritual and I see now that I was going through the dark night of the soul. My own concept of myself had to collapse so i could become the new version of me that i was meant to be. I was suicidal a lot over the past 3 years. But Im happy I am alive and got through it. You will to Morgan, we are here for you, your not alone!!!
During one of the worst depressive episodes of my life, your videos were there for me, making me feel like life could be worth living, if I only could find the courage to let it, and I'd cry every single time you signed off with the words, "Believe in yourself, oh wondrous you." I reached out for help, and with time, I slowly came back to myself. I got a planner, and pastel highlighters like you have, and I set myself goals, and wrote affirmations for myself, and I read "Big Magic" on your recommendation, and I slowly started to explore my creativity more, and I pushed myself to try new things, and I worked harder at my job, because of seeing you do all those things. You gave me courage, Morgan, at a time when I needed it most, and felt so desolate and alone. Your videos made me wake up to the world, to read poetry again, to enjoy my cup of tea, to find my way back to life through small moments of magic. I opened up to the people in my life, and allowed myself to be loved, and to give love. All of that with your influence. So thank you. I'm crying as I type this because I wish I could reach through the screen and give you a hug, and say to your face, thank you for helping me. And more than that, I wish I could do for you what you did for me. I know it's hard, I know it feels like you keep circling the same hurts and lows, but you are not alone. Not for a minute. There are thousands of people out in the world whose lives you've touched, and they are standing with you. We are standing with you. Please don't lose heart. Please keep reaching out, and talking about how you're feeling. You are so loved, and so appreciated.
Your story is one of the greatest gifts I have received, dear friend. Your words have hugged my heart and lifted my spirit-- thank you, thank you, thank you ❤️
@@MorganLong It means so much more to me than I can say, that you read this, and that it brought you comfort
Oh, Mo. You are so so special to me even though we have never met. I’m going through some intense postpartum depression and related to this video more than you know. Just know that you are not alone in how you’re struggling and I’m so proud of you for recognizing and getting help. That takes so much strength and courage. We are rooting for you❤
I’m 72…still struggling. But you inspire. Thankyou.🌻❤️
I love going to the movies by myself. It’s the freaking best
Oh Morgan! I feel for you, I've been there. Someone told me this when I was going through a similar time: I was being really hard on myself and judging myself for my feelings. So I was hurting even more than I had to. I encourage you to treat yourself as you would your own best friend. You are a human and you are having human emotions. You're a lovely, beautiful person. And we are so glad you are here. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing with us.
U should b extremely proud of yourself. U shine for everyone else to see, but sometimes u fail to see how bright that is. I avoided being alone for years, now I love it. One of my favourite times. Stay on it, the growth is so worth it. Sending lots of love and prayers 🙏❤️
Oh Morgan! Sending you all the love in the world! This video made me smile and cry, for you, others and myself. It resonated with me so much. Thank you for sharing ♥
Thank you for being so honest and vulnerable! I loved how this video was so raw and beautiful! 💕
I am so proud of you. And thank you so much for sharing this journey. This is probably my favorite video of yours i have seen. The rawness , the honesty, the joy I see in you from your progress, it is so hear warming. Keep up the great work!! You got this!
Haha your dog jumping up to hit the pillow made me laugh out loud!! Best of luck to you on this journey. I know how hard it is to admit you need help. I have had some major life changing that brought so many emotions and anxiety out that I didn't notice I was burying down and had coping mechanism for. I finally too got help and boy what a difference life has been. I feel so much like myself again and can breathe.
Thanks so much for being so vulnerable and sharing with everyone how you feel, it makes us all feel like were in it together. Well done for being so brave, you've inspired me to be braver too!
Mo, you are an inspiration! Thank you for sharing the light and the dark.
You’re the sweetest soul! Wish you all the best ❤️
I feel this so much. I’m so glad you’re getting help, I just pushed through all of it, had a bunch of kids and struggled way more than I should have. Looking back now, I really should have taken some time to work on myself. I really look forward to seeing your progress! You are such an inspiration linear or not ❤
It feels so amazing knowing that whilst life feels very isolated and gloomy at times, I know there's a small light somewhere in the world which sparks joy and comfort. That light is you, Morgan Long. I am so grateful for knowing you, and knowing there are people like you.
Thank you so very much for this gift, flower moon friend ✨
Thank you for always showing us again,that its okay to not be okay!
i‘m so so glad for the day i found your channel.
we‘re always here for you as you are for us❤️❤️❤️
I'm alone this summer too thanks to my husband's work. It's so nice to have a whole community to support each other in similar situations all around the world.
I love your videos but I think this is my most favourite. You’ve shown so much courage and you’re so brave. Everyone is here for you in your wondrous community ❤
So proud of you Mo!! I was genuinely getting so worried about you, but I’m so glad you reached out for help in your friends and starting therapy. That was so incredibly brave
Dear Mo, thank you for opening up like this, I needed to feel like I'm not the only one struggling...Don't ever doupt the value of your videos ❤ You brought tears to my eyes, in a good way
you are so so strong morgan. admitting you need help is one of the most courageous things you can do. i wish i could give you a huge hug right now. i know having that bad feeling hit again and again really makes it hard to keep getting back up, but you have to keep going. you’re an overcomer, never forget that. you’re stronger than your feelings allow you to think. love u sm !!
You're doing great! We're all here rooting for you, even if it's from afar. It is always okay not to be okay. I always appreciate how your videos are lovely, aesthetic, but also honest. It makes me feel seen. Sending so many big hugs
It can be so so hard to seek and accept help when you're struggling, and I'm so proud of you for doing it. Stay safe 💛
I'm so sorry you've experienced such deep suffering, Morgan. :( I was chronically depressed for a few years, and I know how terrifying it can be. I'm so glad to hear that you're getting support from your community, and especially that you've started seeing a mental health professional. I sincerely hope that even as you experience ups and downs, the downs start being a little less scary. Sending you all the love. 💜
Sending you a whole lot of love 💕 So courageous, such a beautiful heart. What a journey of self understanding, expansion and love. You are learning so much and your love will be back soon. ❤
Thank you for being so raw 😢. I feel you and have struggled with depression in the past. I even used meds for awhile. Divorce & my parents dying within 3 months of each other, plus a bad fall affecting my health all added up to some really scary feelings. I really resonated with tears as you admitted your fear over admitting what you knew was happening. I'm so thankful you're getting help ❤. We're all here for you no matter what
I am so beyond proud of you, Morgan! You and your content make me so happy and good about myself and my life! You will get through this. I am sending all the good vibes your way! Stay Strong, beautiful soul! 💕
This was such an inspiration for me, in a time where I feel like I'm trying to also figure a lot of things out. Your bravery and vulnerability are beautiful to watch. Thank you!🌼😊
Thank you for being so vulnerable. It was actually just what I needed in this moment ❤. Sending big love!!
This is one of your best videos Morgan, imho. I was crying all through just because I can relate to everything you spoke about, loneliness, fear of attack (even inside your own house so never feeling safe), when progress is being made suddenly the universe is like “no” and stops you in your tracks (urgh what IS that?!). Thanks for taking the time to create this and also being phenomenally brave to share it. You are absolutely helping others feel less alone and more empowered to heal themselves and enjoy their life.❤
Oh morgan! I just want to give you the biggest hug! Being alone can really bring out terriible deep dark feelings and there is no shame in gstting help.
I loved watching this video even thevheartbreaking parts, but espically seeing you slowing pulling yourself up and out of the dark ❤
Oh mo I am so happy you are back again!!! You gave me so much comfort ❤❤❤❤
I love your videos and you are so vulnerable and so real it’s very heart warming to see a real person on you tube xx
I burst into tears multiple times 😭❤️❤️❤️ this was so beautiful and touching. You’re amazing Morgan
Thank you for always being so wonderful, honest and your wondrous you in your videos ❤
Thank you for sharing this. I’m a life coach and even I have gone through this several times. It’s hard to be alone. You are so frickin brave to share this!
You are so brave! Thanks for inspiring us!
Morgan, thank you so much for opening up about your struggles so honestly! This difficult time alone is truly a unique place for tremendous growth! 🌺🙏
Thank you for sharing your heart and your journey. This spoke to me so deeply.
You are so, so special. What bravery it takes to do what you are doing and then to share it and be so vulnerable is amazing.
Wow. What a beautiful and empowering video. I felt this sooo much! 💗
Thank you so much for sharing this part of your life with us. Thank you for showing you as you are, I feel very identified with your way of seeing life, and rest assured that this community will always be there to support you when you need it. How always beautiful your videos and more the messages you transmit, a big hug ❤
This video really, truly hit home. From one heavy soul to another, thank you. You are incredible.
Hey guys💕 just so you know, you are not alone. I’ve been feeling this way in the last years, I was in a really unhappy relationship, I felt like I was giving up on myself, allowing him to treat me like that. Crying all the time. After a while, I got fed up and saw him for what he was, moved out, back to my parents, connected more deeply with my friends and family, started running again, eventually training for a 10k (which was a challenge for me) showed up for myself! When I did finish the 10k I had tears in my eyes. And now a year later, I’m feeling strong, just finished my first triathlon. Feeling stronger physically does make you feel stronger mentally 💕 so keep it up, it’s hard, there are a lot of ups and downs and changes to the plan. But don’t give up guys xxx you can show up for yourself, you are worth it
This video has fallen into my lap at a time when I really needed it. Thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing so honestly and deeply. Thank you for sharing your hardships and your joyous glimmers. Thank you for showing how you can deeply experience both. I am so proud to follow along with you and to also be seeking help and trying to offer healing to the parts of myself that need it. You are a beautiful human xx
😢❤❤❤ I don't want to say something stupid so I send you hugs.
Thank you for being vulnerable. That's not easy to do these days. I am sure a lot of people can relate with this video. You made me tear up. I'm so glad that you have Roo to stay with you during this time. The online community is here for you too, Morgan. We love you! Thank you for touching our lives. Its just better with you and your videos in it. Thank you!
Hey Mo! Thanks so much for sharing this journey. It's so real and raw and I really appreciate how scary and hard it is to admit the feelings you are having. I had this experience a few summers ago, I felt so lonely ( I moved to a new city with my boyfriend at the time ). It was hard for me to admit that and it had a really tough effect on our relationship. Seeing you be so courageous to own up to your feelings is so empowering for you! You are growing so much and learning so much in life, and this experience will only benefit you in the future, building resilience and being able to thrive on your own.
Sending so much love…. You are sooo inspirational! 💕✨🌸
Miss ya! So happy you are back to vloging on CZcams! Sending happy and positive vibes from Portland! ❤😊

So excited for another video! And it sounds like (from the title), that maybe you are getting into your groove with living alone. I hope so. It's not all that bad! ❤
This was really beautiful Morgan
I was worried when you weren’t posting. I’m so sorry mo. I know this exact feeling. Sending you so so much love.
Just finished the video and am so blown away by everything about it that I'm have to start it again from the beginning. I can't under state how proud I am of you and how much you inspire me
I’m so glad you reached out to friends
You are such a bright light and I watch your videos for comfort and inspiration. I know right now you may feel like you’re not at your brightest and or most comfortable or most inspirational but it’s quite the opposite. You posting this and showing your real struggles so that we all may connect is amazing. I’m grateful for you, and I’m hoping that you’re having an easier day today and finding joy and comfort in small little moments ❤
We love you Morgan!! Even though we are getting less videos, each one is an amazing gift. I’m so proud of you tackling living alone and you will look back on this and be so proud as well ❤️❤️
What a brave and honest video! Thank you for all you share ❤
Mo, this is such a special video from you - really!
Thank you so much for sharing this!
You're not alone and you're doing so good. You're so brave :) It's so hard to seek for help!
Thank you and a big hug! :)
This video made my cry over breakfast! You are so strong and so right. The world needs our joy, thanks for reminding me!
Dear Morgan, I am so happy you are taking care of yourself! I’ve been through a phase like this myself and I’ve been working on it and making great progress over the last couple of years, learning to enjoy time on my own, going to the cinema, a museum or a café just by myself and yesterday I came back from my very first solo trip an even though the first day was a little hard and I felt a bit lonely - I learnt that these feelings are like visitors, they’ll come and go… I know it isn’t easy but I hope that by processing what you are currently going through you’ll be able to shine brighter and feel lighter than ever before! sending lots of love 💕
Hugs and happy vibes coming your way from Canada 🩷💜🌸🌺. I am a relatively new subscriber and I am absolutely loving your vlogs! Stay strong 🩷.
