    I am sincerely happy that you have arrived to a point where you are feeling more like yourself. It was wonderful to see you smiling at the end of the video, reflecting how you presently felt in the cinema compared to how you were a while back. Not only are those moments extremely powerful, but they also prove that positive progress will pull through in the end, however small or big the steps may be at the time.
    It made me smile quite a bit to see how my reaction to the art you made for me made you feel on a deeper level. You bring a lot to this world, and you have a great amount of worthiness despite feeling the opposite at times as you have. I was taken back when you opened up how my streams helped you and eventually growing our friendship. Most definitely as happy to call you a friend. :) you're doing amazing work on yourself, keep it up. Very proud. I may not be around as often unfortunately (though temporary), but I'm happy to see how you're progressing. You're growing stronger each day, whether it is a good or bad day - stay strong.

      Ahh you have no idea how happy it makes me to see this! You're always so full of wisdom Nick, I agree (the steps felt tiny but they were nonetheless there)! I'm glad you feel that way, that's really touching so thank you

    I know this is a bit late but i found your channel the other day and decided to watch your video about anxiety and your personal struggles. I really appreciate the time and effort into the video and want to thank you. I personally struggle with being social and maintaining friends which gives me anxiety about if I am even a good friend and feeling alone. Feeling alone is something that I typically feel every day with also my anxiety of being around people or social places. I want to have friends yet struggle under social events to talk or to interact. Wanting something yet fearing what happens when I have it and being satisfied with my choices. Fear of making friends is also caused by my fear or being hurt or the friendship ending. I do not want to talk to people about struggles yet wish to talk to someone I trust and can rely on while also combating the issue of hiding how I might feel to avoid pain. I live smiling and try to be cheerful while when I am home stay in my room avoiding any contact. A fear of being around others and what could happen with the interactions while wanting to have at least one person I could depend on when I just wish I could tell someone. Thank you for making me not feel so alone and that I am not the only person that struggles with these issues and anxiety. I know that everyone has their own struggles to face yet the path can seem aimless and lack such desire from myself with my trait to hold lack of motivation with writer block and lack of interest to tell people how I might really feel instead of just saying "I'm fine". Thank you again and hope you are having a stellar day.

    I especially agree with the sleep part, I always get a joke answer whenever I tell people to go get some sleep, something along the lines of "sleep is for the weak" or some crud like that and they can't tell I actually mean it. Thanks for the insight into your situation, yes I know that this video is almost a year old, but anxiety and health problems never get dated. Take care photoshop lady!

    I had to drop out of University because my depression became unbearable. Thank you for making this video and speaking out about mental health and I'm happy to hear the meds are working. Take care.

      I'm really sorry to hear that, if things haven't started looking up for you already I really hope they do. I'm glad I could make this video from a better position that I was in before :) Thank you for the kind words, you too!

    Listening to your story was incredibly cathartic. I've been struggling with generalized and social anxiety for probably the past 4 years of my life. You ARE a strong person, and hearing just how far you've come since the onset of your anxiety speaks volumes of your resiliency. I just recently had a meeting with a professor and actually broke down into tears right in front of her lol... She told me that I should consider medication, and after seeing the school psychiatrist he gave me two choices in medication. I'm still contemplating whether or not I want to take them, and I plan on talking to my therapist before I make my final decision. You definitely hit the nail on the head about how medication has its stigma, hell it's the reason i'm so scared of taking them. But still, thank you for sharing your story. As a person who HATES opening up to others, it was nice to hear from a person who has battled anxiety and even more so one who's overcoming it.
    Crap, I didn't mean to ramble for so long lol. I can't say I'm a long time fan since I've only seen a few of your videos, but I just wanted to leave you my regards. :) Oh, and the background music is absolutely AMAZING. I love listening to it when I'm just trying to relax and contemplate on life, so thank you for introducing it to me!

      I'm really glad I was able to help! Woah, 4 years is a long time, props to you for staying strong through that :) I personally am relatively comfortable talking about it, and I'm proud of myself for coming as far as I have! As I said meds helped me but it varies, definitely see how the therapist goes! Remember that medication, if you choose to take it is for YOU. No one else needs a say in it and if it helps you and makes you feel better then no one else's opinions matter, your health comes first! Oddly enough I'm very cagey when it comes to talking about feelings normally, but with this sort of stuff if I could help anyone I was more than happy to share my experiences so I'm glad it was nice for you to hear.
      It's alright - I managed to ramble on for 45 minutes so I think you're good haha. And honestly I appreciate you watching, no matter how long you've been around for! I also love the background music, stumbled across it randomly but it's pretty relaxing on it's own, have played it on repeat before when I'm focusing on something so I felt it would be fitting!

      Oh wow, I really appreciate you taking the time to give me such an expansive response! I was contemplating on if I should reply again since I didn't want to bother you. :(
      Yeah, my anxiety peaked at around the end of my senior year of high school. I wasn't really sure of what I wanted to do post-high school, so I just went to college because my parents expected me to go. I have to say, I find it extremely commendable that despite your massive anxiety, you were able to be so diligent with your school work. For me, I've been struggling to hand assignments in on time and study. A part of it is laziness which is embarrassing to admit since you're so studious. I've always just felt like I don't belong in my program lol...I'm a social work major and everybody else just seems to be...better. What really gets to me is how open they are to conversation, and how they're so willing to participate in discussions. Now, I DO understand the material and pay attention, but I always feel insignificant so I limit my participation. I'm a senior now, and next semester we'll be starting our internships which just has be incredibly anxious lol.
      You're right that I should base my choice on what will be best for my health. To be honest I have a bad habit of projecting my insecurities onto others, hence why I'm so hesitant on taking that step. From what I know my friends don't take any form of medication, and while I AM happy that they're doing fine, it leaves me feeling like I'm different...abnormal even. I don't think they'd tease or make fun of me for taking meds (anyone that does can go freak themselves).
      Ah crap this was meant to be a short reply. I'm so sorry :( you just seem so down to earth and understanding lol...and I don't often times get to talk about my problems with people around my age.

      Don't worry! I wanted to make this video to help other people so you're more than welcome to reach out to me. I think a big part of me being on top of work is that I've always been like that my whole life but also because I love what I do and doing well in anything that I love gives me a huge boost of happiness :) Try not to look at it that you're significant - if you like what you're doing you ARE meant to be there! Best of luck with your internships, I hope you do enjoy it even though it may be daunting.
      I have had that same issue before, I'm lucky in the sense that I have a fair few friends that have been on some sort of medication so it was easy for them to relate to my situation. Agreed - no decent human that I've ever come across has made fun of someone for taking meds even if they don't really get it. But just to re-iterate - whatever you choose to do, put yourself first, those that really love you will understand that you gotta put yourself first sometimes! ♥

    I would never be able to do this haha. As someone who is going through something similar, I'm glad it gets better. Exercising is not only great for the body but also great for the mind. Also I have found taking a cold shower is actually amazing. Should totally try it. Thanks for sharing :^]

    • @ApplePieQueen

      Myth1fyThis Stay strong! And yeah, totally agree with those points! A close friend has actually suggested cold showers to me and they have multiple benefits! Thanks for watching :)
