Love you lots Em xxx
brummymummyof2 you are fab. Thank you so much for this video x
I love watching your videos. Your an inspiration to lots and this video shows you care about your viewers. There are always going to people who are negative and try to bring others down and do that by being trolls. Always look forward to your videos x
♥️
You are amazing💓💓💓💓Very brave and helpful xxxx
Well done Emma on a honest informative video. I can relate a lot to how you feel about yourself. I've suffered from depression and anxiety for 10 yrs. I'm so much better than I was but since I had to retire early due to my back I've almost locked myself away. I can go 10 days without leaving the house. I make plans but on the day I get anxious and have a 100 reasons why I don't need to go out. I live alone too, with my 2 dogs. It's real crappy living like this, I'm very antisocial I guess, I feel everyone is looking at me badly and talking about me sometimes if I go out. I am on medication and it does help, it got me back from a very dark time.
Sorry for rambling on lol, I don't get to talk to people much just the dogs 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 probably get more sense out the dogs. Xxx
I suffer from depression and anxiety, mom of 3, part time teacher and my husband is a police officer- so needless to say my mental health can get the best of me. I take antidepressants which helps, but it’s still a struggle on some days. Good for you for taking taking charge of your mental health .
How have I only just come across your content!!!LOVE IT, your the breath of fresh air that youtube needs, THANK YOU!!!!! I think your fab,
You are a breath of fresh air in this crazy world of ‘influencers’. I’m so glad you’re feeling better xxx
Emma, I just want to say thank you for sharing your story. I'm actually sat in a waiting room whilst my daughter has her first therapy appointment. Nhs mental health provision is pants, she's been waiting over 12 months, no joke. Mental health can and does affect anybody and everybody. Sending you big hugs, I think you're bloody lovely. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for making this video and being so open about your MH journey, it’s so so important to have these conversations 💚
Love you, Emma. I’m glad you feel better and are happier. You and your videos have brightened up my day a fair amount since I’ve subscribed. I think you are very brave for starting the process and a boss ass lady for sharing it!💪🏼
Your beautiful hun..a breath of fresh air and normal
Thumbs up to Stephen for being a supportive husband..that in itself makes a massive difference xx
I've had cbt & also saw a therapist for depression, much better now & been off antidepressants for a year & half. It's a dark place to be but with help, there is light at the end off the tunnel. Your beautiful & bubbly & lovely xxx
I Love this. you are an amazing woman. Ive suffered with mental ill health most of my life and although im already receiving lots of help, just hearing someone be open and accepting of it makes me feel less alone. i have to add i nearly spat out my coffee when you said you'd "im not super gorgeous" your mirror must be broken because your beautiful.
So much respect for you for posting this. Really brave and honest and it will definitely help others. Well done you for taking control back! ❤️
Well done Emma for talking about this. I’m really glad that you were able to get the help you needed and are still getting it. It’s so important to talk about these issues. For our own wellbeing and so that others know that they are not alone. Thank you xx
I love how positive you are in this video, as someone who is 20 and who has realised my issues might be small to some people who can't always understand my anxiousness you make me realise it can still be a big issue for me. Lots of love from someone who hopes she can be as confident and intelligent as you when I am older xxx
Thank you for sharing, Emma! It's people like you that are helping break the negative stigma surrounding mental health and that is so important. Stay positive, you're doing awesome xx
Well done on getting help and all your progress!! 🤗 I've also recently started going to therapy and it's really helped me to work through things. I also struggled with thoughts about how my problems might not be as big as other people's and not as important so thanks for talking about that too. Everyone is important and deserves to feel their best!
You are such a lovely lady. Your children are going to look back at these videos in the future and remember the amazing times they had growing up and how lucky they are to have parents like you and Stephen x
I admire you so much! I love how your honest and true to yourself. I'm really struggling at the moment with some parenting problems with my 6 year old and even though I have my husband I feel lonely and like I shouldn't be saying I'm struggling. But you just shown me it's really ok not to be ok. I'm so glad your feeling happier as you deserve it. Also loving the hair!
Thank you for speaking up so honestly. Imposter syndrome related anxiety is something that affects so many women - I work in the tech industry - and completely, understand. I also have the Midlands accent! I am so glad to hear the therapist has helped. I had therapy after my divorce and it saved me.
Absolutely love your channel, don’t always get the time to watch all your videos, but I think you are fabulous and gorgeous. It takes a lot to make this kind if video, so thank you for sharing this with us. You are so down to earth, natural and funny, you are you and that’s why I love your channel xx
Hats off to you 🎩 for being open. People need to talk more about there mental health. I've been through therapy before and the way I see it it's s a way to better yourself understand yourself and look after Ur mind. We look after our physical health why not mentallly to
I’m so glad you are feeling in a better place, lots of love to you. Thanks for your honesty, so much of what you said resonates with me and I have recently decided to explore some CBT, so listening to you really helped. All the very best to you Emma, love you and your content so be kind to yourself xxx
Em, as I have said before on a previous video, therapy has been amazing for me too. Thank you for speaking out on mental health issues, it's wonderful to see this coming to the forefront as it's so important.
💖 I love that you posted this 💖
I have had to be coaxed out of the shower by my husband too!
So happy that you're feeling the benefits of therapy and are able to talk about it so openly 😁 x
Thank you for sharing! not only is it brilliant to see someone 'like me' on Instagram/youtube, it's also really reassuring to hear someone share similar mental health stories. I love the comparison with a broken finger- it's so easy to think it's not as big a deal and we 'shouldn't' be getting help/moaning about it, but it's still something that impacts our lives! so thank you xx
Thank you for sharing it's good to know and feel you aren't alone and others feel a similar way. I love how you are turning it around and taking back control. It's a hard thing to do . I struggle remaining in control but I'm doing ok . Xx
I’ve always struggled with anxiety and one of my main struggles is over thinking what I’ve said to people and how I’ve come across in social situations so it was so nice to hear that I’m not the only one that does that! This was a great video xx
I have often felt very similarly in the respect of "wow I'm so blessed in so many ways - I don't have the right to be suffering" so I've ignored my anxiety and depression all of my life. I just started taking medication for both and had my first therapy session last month and while I am at the beginning of my mental health journey, it's so comforting to see others be open and honest so we can work through this together... especially someone I adore! I'm proud of you for taking care of yourself, Emma, and for speaking out! Have a wonderful day 💕
Well done for speaking out about this and well done to Stephen for being a understanding and supportive husband -I think having that support is vital. Xx
Thank you for sharing your experiences - it was very brave of you. A lot of what you said resonates with me. I look at my life and think my problems are small and insignificant compared to problems others have, but they are still causing me anxiety. I hope I can be brave like you and seek help. Keep on doing what you’re doing, I think you are fab! x x
Making videos about mental health is always something I've wanted to do, in a practical non-emotional way just like this!! Emma you've inspired me! I've been through so many different treatments for anxiety, depression, phobias and schizophrenia and maybe soon I'll sit down and talk about stuff - in a practical, informing way, like you! Proud of you, keep it up!
Emma, I've only just discovered your channel, and subscribed because you make me smile throughout watching them. It's great that you have addressed mental health, it's so important, but I have to say...I'm happy to hear you are feeling a lot better. You seem like such a beautiful person full of love, and i don't understand how/why someone could post something negative to you....and it certainly is not true!! What people say about others is more a reflection of themselves! Keep doing you, you are AWESOME!! Xx
It takes a lot of guts to be honest and vulnerable about mental health in any situation, let alone in front of a camera! You’re so right that pain is pain, and while gratitude and awareness of our privilege is important, it’s equally important to remember that all pain is completely valid and worthy of help. I’m so glad the sessions are helping you feel like yourself again - you are awesome!! This is such an important and brave video, thank you so so much for sharing this xx ❤️
I love you and Louise Pentland because you are both real women and you both have such positive attitudes! Don’t change!
One of the reasons your followers love you Em is your honesty and relatability! As a mum of 3 I always look forward to your content and you always make me smile, even when I am having a crappy day. Keep doing you 😘 xxx
I can totally relate to this. I have anxiety and depression. I have suffer with it for years. I am getting help with it and it works.thank you so much for doing this video and thank you so much for making me feel like im not alone. I an so happy for you that you are getting help. You are a great influence to everyone.
And this video perfectly illustrates why you are so loved. Well done on getting the help you needed amd sharing to help others to access what they might need xx
Thank you for being so open and honest about your own mental health issues in such a normal way.
Well done for filming this and then posting it. So many people suffer, but we are like swans 🦢seemingly gliding through life but actually paddling like mad under to water to even keep afloat. Well done to your family being so supportive, that is so important but not always the case. It’s hard for anyone else to understand what you are going through, particularly when you don’t understand it yourself. 💞💞
Thank you so much this has helped me a lot . Glad you’re feeling better and happy mental health week!
Lots of love! x
I am so glad you are feeling better, this was a very interesting video - I have always managed to ‘muddle through’ when I have had mental health difficulties in the past, but watching this I realise that must have been very difficult for my family to live with. So note to self, get help if required. Thank you for being so open, it can’t have been easy.
What the flipping heck are you talking about lady, you are super gorgeous, inside and out! Fantastic upload. ❤️
You are so brave for talking about your mental health. I am happy that you are getting better and seeking the help you need and encouraging other people to not be ashamed of asking for help. Keep up the great work! ❤️
Thank you for sharing Emma. It's so great that there are so many people standing together!
Love this, Emma! Thank you for sharing these tidbits. I’ve struggled so much with feeling worthless and it’s such a hard thing to get out of.
Love love love you Emma. You are by far my very favorite mommy vlogger. You are always real and honest and funny. You help me so much as a mom dealing with confidence and day to day mom life. Thank you for all that you do. Glad you are feeling better. You look lovely today. I love you lots Emma. Sending you lots of hugs all the way from Texas.
honestly Emma I love watching you and can relate to you 100 per cent ....I'm so glad you sourced therapy to help you and you are feeling much better.
I have been where you were on the floor hyperventilating and unless you have been there it's hard for pple to get their head around. I'm happy to say like you I'm feeling a lot better but I will always be that person with anxiety it's just it took me time to figure out how to deal with it . Great video, love you lots 😘 Keep your head held up high nobody is any better than anybody else x
Thanks Emma 💕💕. You’re bloody brilliant for talking about mental health and helping take away the stigma associated with it. Keep looking after yourself. 🙏🏻
I love your simplicity and honesty, it is very difficult to find people like you nowadays. I am different, I know it, inside , and I often struggle, I ask myself why I don't have lots of friend, an husband and a super happy life, well, I have a wonderful daughter and this is enough. I try to be happy everyday. Have a wonderful day.
Thankyou for being so honest.
I have watched you for a long time, what ever your content, I just love you as a person, and your family are gorgeous.
We moved to Australia a couple of years ago ( originally from derby) and I have found It extremely hard. But as we chose to make this move, I also don’t feel like I can moan about it.
Our daughter started school last year, and I thought it would be easy making friends at the school gates....it isn’t!
I too have feeling of worthlessness and worried im saying the wrong thing etc.
Life is bloody hard!! 💗
This video just reconfirm why I love you. Your honesty and truth. I relate to so many things you have said. I really hope you never reach that low again. Big love xx
I think you’re great - I found you through your Disney content on the look out planning for our trip. This video couldn’t have come on a better day as I started my sessions today after realising I wasn’t ok. Kids need a happy Mum and I’m so pleased you’re feeling better and happier xxx
Well done you! I have been struggling for a few years now and a big problem has been the guilt I’ve felt about it, because in the scheme of things I have a lovely life with very little to complain about. Your little finger analogy really helps x
you are such an inspiration for me Emma. Watching you videos brighten my day !!
Yay! Well done you for sharing. I’ve had counselling a few times after some really bad things happened. I recently had cbt to try and help me accept that I’m now disabled. There’s no shame in getting help. Well five for sharing it takes guts xx
Never stop what you do, your our inspiration for all us ladies who have turned 40. I had to go yo therapy as I turned 40, my father died and I was out of sorts. I definitely recommend talking.
Your honest about who you are and what you stand for and that says everything about the person you are. I would much rather follow you that someone I could not relate to. 💜🧡💛💚💙❤
At my worst I spent a whole weekend in a pillow fort in my living room. I can definitely relate to just sitting in the shower! I'm so glad that you're getting better, you deserve to be happy
I just love you Emma! Thank you so much for sharing this!
Good on you Emma, I can understand how nerve wracking this must have been to post.. but you did it! You have without a doubt helped so many of your followers by just being you. There should be more influencers like you, cause you're one of the most genuine people I've seen on youtube/Instagram. Youre doing great - keep going ❤ myself and all of your lovely followers are behind you xx
Love you lots! Well done Emma xxx
You are a lovely person! I like the way you are so original, so don´t worry and be happy!!
Thank you for this vlog. I had counselling last year after s very serious physical illness. I must say it was a very valuable experience in order to get my feeling into perspective and allow me to move on. Thank you so much xx
I don’t often comment on videos but had to say I’m in love with this video! I constantly struggle with complaining myself to other people, I suffer with chronic illnesses and being 34 I look at others and think I should be doing that, I should be working, making something of my life but I’m here ill and I really have times where I beat myself up over it so what you said made so much sense to me. Thank you for sharing 💗
Thank you so much for this Emma! Its moments like this, that will touch peoples hearts and minds...It has even inspired me to want to talk about my own mental health journey, which is something I struggle with sharing! But it is important to normalise mental health issues, and share that everyone has demons to face but there is always a light at the end of the tunnel, you are shining proof of that! Thanks again hey! Much love xx
I’ve found your channel via Louise Pentland, you are a beautiful lady, with a heart of gold, that is clear to see!
I don’t usually comment on videos but this one has really resonated with me. Keep doing you x
Well done for talking about mental health . I have anxiety and depression and every so often I have panic attacks. The more people that speak up about mental health the better :) Wishing you all the best 😃 xx
💗 credit to you Emma for such a frank video. Very brave and I'm sure many of us can relate. It really does help to talk and regain perspective. You are doing an awesome job xx
I watch you because you are so real and relatable. Thankyou for sharing this video. X
Thank you for sharing Emma, wishing you all the best x
Fantastic video Emma. So honest and easy to listen too. Just what people need to hear. I'm glad you have found the counselling useful. Have a great Saturday with your lovely family x
Thank you for sharing - I love your social media platforms, you make me smile. I like to think you're smiling a bit more lately too. X
I had therepy at the end of last year around perfectionism and anxiety. Your really brave to share this thank you
Well done, bab. Great video. I too suffered huge anxiety and the getting out of bed thing is sooo hard when you are in an episode. My anxiety crippled me, I really suffered, Mine was triggered by my dad's illness and then death. I lost friends because of it, and I cannot explain how awful the time was. I am much better now (albeit with other health issues). Well done for getting help. xxxxx
Glad you are starting to feel better, and thank you for highlighting that therapy is expensive and unfortunately not easily accessible to everyone. 😘 xxx
Thank you Emma for sharing your experience. I found it was when my life was actually the most stable that i broke down the worst. It can happen to anyone. And as you said it is ok not to be ok. Take care xx
It's great that you can share your experience. I have suffered with depression at various times in my life and have had all sorts of counselling. If I hadn't had my last counselling when I got ill with Fibro and M.E, I wouldn't be here. Looking at my life now in another way helps. The main point is if you are suffering, get help.
Well
Done for sharing and being so brave in telling your story. You are a fantastic strong woman!
Like you’ve touched on Emma, I think it’s important to remember your followers follow you because they LOVE you. You’re so relatable, down to earth and “normal” and that’s why so many people follow you. Well done for getting help xx
I have anxiety and depression & this really helped I think it's important to talk and feel listened too. Take care and keep the videos coming especially the primark/home bargains ones❤️
What a fab video! Thank you for sharing, Emma. Very important to have the conversation!
You fabulous lady Emma, so glad you’re starting to feel better. ❤️ xx
You fabUlous inspirational woman ❤️. You are a perfect role model for your children .
Bravo to you for sharing this, I can relate 100% and everything seems a lot clearer now. Understanding the triggers before emotions take hold. Love you bab x
I come from a similar background of working from home , attending press events and going to places where a lot of people were very glam!
The running through conversations over and over I can massively relate to.
Hi Stephen 😊
Good for you Emma, genuinely thrilled for you and your family for your progress and awareness of your well-being. I deleted FB and IG as I got truly tired if people’s pretentiousness and all those keyboard heroes on social media. I am so glad to see you rise above, I never understood how anyone could criticize you or your content. Onwards and upwards and all the best for you 4.
Needed this. You are great Emma x
Glad you were able to talk openly about your mental health, I struggle with mental illness and it’s so difficult to explain to others about what it’s actually like to be mentally sick and it’s difficult for them to know what to say or do when your struggling. Most people think it’s just like having a bad day which couldn’t be more farther than the truth and it frustrates me so much when people say just get over it or wise up because it’s not like I’m choosing to feel so bad it’s the invisible illness that has a grip of me love your videos keep positive love Sarah in Belfast Northern Ireland xox
Well done Emma for having the confidence and strength to do this video, there is a definite difference in you and hopefully you continue to feel better!! Xx
thank you for sharing, you're such a lovely lady and I love watching all your vlogs
Thank you for this video Emma! As a therapist in the NHS I can't tell you how often people tell me they don't want to waste my time, that there must be people more in need etc. If the difficulties are negatively impacting on you and your life it's definitely worth looking into help, and the earlier the better! X p.s. love the broken little finger analogy, I'm going to steal that one! 😉
Love you
You are such an amazing lady xx
I had my last counselling session today (which is both yay, and scary in itself!)
I got into the car and the radio came on and McAlmont & Butler Yes, I do feel better came on, which I'm now taking as a positive sign that my mindset has changed
Sending love xxx
Hi Emma I am 45 and suffered for depression and know exactly how you feel . Feeling Crappy I will about myself, I absolutely love your vlogs they get me through the day . I know it’s hard but you got this girl . You are a wonderful mummy and beautiful on the inside as well as out x trolls are just sad nasty people with no lives xx 💋
Thanks so much for making this 🧡
I do apologise, a bit of a late comment, I'm very new to your channel, but had to comment of this, I must say I think you are amazing, I have felt very similar feeling the past, not quite as bad as some of the thing you we feeling but a lot about going to new places, what I said to people, how I looked to them as being a mommy of 3, one girl and twin boys I'm not the most skinniest, but your video really spoke out to me and thank you for that, I honestly do think you are fantastic and I hope your videos carry on for many, many years, (no pressure or anything lol) you have given me so many ideas about all different things, mommy related, home and so much more so thanks again so much
Thank you for sharing this. Such an honest and real video.
Well done Emma, you're making the subject of mental health become more "normal". So very proud of you with how far you've come. Such an inspiration, You're the bestest Egg keep doing you. Xx P.s Hey Ste 👋
Your a beautiful lady Emma inside and out, I’m one of many people who have and have had mental health issue.
Thankyou for sharing this your an absolute star. 💖💖💖
Hugs you are not alone
A really great video Emma- thank you!
