Top Comments of this video!! :3
My 20s were rough af. Crippling anxiety in the beginning, then my mother killed herself, then my dad an I were foreclosed on out of my childhood home a couple of years after I graduated college... We lived in hotels for a long time, and then my dad died. No siblings or anything. My one aunt who really cares about me... We don't have much in common, and she can be kind of clingy, so, even though I make an effort, I usually don't enjoy being around her much (as callous as that might sound, it's just the truth). I've been waiting tables for the past 5 years while I tried to figure out what to do with my life, and... I do have people who care about me where I work, I feel better about that now. But I've never been in a relationship for... various reasons having to do with a bad combination of circumstance and personality; it's something I really want, but, at 30, I'm starting to despair of ever finding it. I want to move on with my life. I got accepted into grad school, but I have to wait a year for financial reasons. I will say, though, that, even though I disappoint myself, I really love myself, so that's something, at least.

1:55 "I feel like there's this wall between me and other people and I try to make them like me; I say funny shit and they all laugh but it never really feels like there's anything coming back the other way."
Hits way too hard. Can't believe they just summed how how I feel so perfectly.

i remember watching this as soon as it came out with me being 18 and thinking, "pfft, knowing this, my 20s will be a breeze", but everytime i revisit this video a different lesson clicks, and it helps me get through it all. I'll never have enough words to thank this series and what a comfort it is every time.

I'm literally crying in my office right now. This is such a good series, but this episode specifically hits close to home. I'll be 30 in another year, and I have had all those moments, but the world changes and you change to. Even in the darkness, I know I'm my own light, now. I hope others can find that, too.

This is probably one of the most single impactful episodes of this series to me. I’m currently 21 and I’m finding that I’m going through a lot of jadedness and dissolution with just about every aspect of my life. I like how I can relate with the characters of People Watching in their 20’s and it gives me a little hope for when I reach 30. As cringy as it sounds, this episode inspired me to start a personal video archive as well so hopefully it can give 30 year old me some perspective.

I'm starting to think the best thing about People Watching is how I always feel like I'm the only one who gets hit so hard by these episodes and the emotions behind them and then I read the comments and there are people with the same fears and insecurities and struggles who identify deeply with this series and it reminds me I'm not alone.
