Top Comments of this video!! :3
i never make public comments but it’s so strange how connected i feel to you because of how much i relate to your experiences and thoughts. from a chaotic inside rambler myself, you articulate and analyse how you feel really well! (better than me at least) please do keep making these videos 💓 they’re very therapeutic

Something that’s been a huge part of my mental health journey recently is distinguishing between consuming media/entertainment for pure distraction and consuming entertainment for art and feeding my creative soul as you put it❤️I’m such a strong believer that we need to consume things of beauty and art everyday as part of self care; it’s not all working out and keeping distracted. This video is so healing for me; I feel so connected to you all the love!

I try to wake up and look out the window not at my phone. No matter rain or shine in that moment i remember that i am present. I am always looking down at my phone never ahead. I want to take in the smell of coffee in the morning, people's faces when you say good morning. I think there's something special in the little things. A simple flower growing is extraordinary but i seem to forget. I hope i can learn to not live in a altered reality any longer. Thank you for sharing this.

I just finished reading a book after having not been able to sit through anything that required focus. The last few years of high school had me burnt out. I lost so much of who I was while trying to just get through the week. I really lost touch with what was feeding me, I mean really feeding me like my energy, my mind, things that allowed my heart to heal - just my soul. I've been really pushing myself my entire life. Since I could remember, I've been competing with this ideal version of myself that I've always known was unattainable because it isn't realistic. It isn't me. I've looked to anything external to build my identity but I find myself in a cycle of running on empty because I never asked myself what I needed from me. The hardest lesson I've recently had to learn is that it doesn't matter where life takes you, the places you see and the people you meet, unless you really make choices that are for you, you're never going to feel like yourself. Perhaps the reason I felt so distant from myself was because I was subconsciously choosing to distancing myself from myself, if that makes sense.
I just forgot how much of "me" I've been missing. I haven't felt freedom this way before. It's a good feeling, a really good feeling.

Im lonely and a little sad atm, I’m excited to make some banana bread and watch these new videos
I deleted my social media two weeks ago and it has been so helpful! My screen time is still high but I’m not being mean to myself, I’m just slowly developing more fun hobbies and healthy habits to take up the time. I’m not motivated by tough love either, so I get u for sure.

Something I have a lot of trouble with and that has been provoking a ton of anxiety in my everyday life is the balance of consumption/creating. I know it's sort of antonymous to what you were saying but I struggle a lot with creating; I love to sing but don't know how to play any instruments (something I'm super jealous of you for being able to do!) and I write poetry but for some reason it doesn't feel like enough if I'm not able to share it. I've been reading so many good books, watching so many great films, watching your videos and other singing videos on Instagram and it's been so frustrating to see so much art that I feel I'd never be able to create. Anyway I don't know why I'm sharing but I'm sure many can relate.

There's something oddly sublime about sharing these moments with you, Alice. Thank you.
