This video really is just dedicated to me and to whoever else needs it.
I was very hesitant to post this. I think this is the most honest thing I’ve ever put out into the world which makes me pee myself a little bit but also makes me feel very free. This video is how I’m saying goodbye to that chapter of my life.
It’s hard to be honest and vulnerable. I knew there would be backlash and judgment and not everyone would understand- but it’s not about creating a message that resonates with everyone, it’s about sharing my story in hopes someone feels less alone in theirs.
There's so much more I could have said and ways I could have condensed, improved, and perfected this video but I like how messy and scattered and raw and authentic it is. Of course I recognize my opinion and perspective will change, but as of today, on some day in June 2023, this is what I have to say. So here is my messy, real, imperfect, ugly crying and screaming self - she’s not for everyone but she is for me.
Also - Thank you, all one million of you (!!!), for the last 3 years of my life. You’ve taught me so much and have truly changed my life. I’m honored to be a part of your journey, and so grateful that you’re a part of mine. I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

WE STAN MOTHER SUN EVERYONE NEEDS HER IN THEIR LIFE
Agreed! She is so wise and loving 🥺💌
Everytime I hear what she says I‘m so astonished 🥹 I love my mom but she would never be that patient if I poured out my negative feelings towards myself, she‘d just be like „stop it, I can’t endure this“🫠🥴
AGREED 😤❤️
Me too I need mother Sun in my life .. Linda is so pleased to have such a heaven mum❤❤❤❤❤
@@lindasunyt Your Mum is your Therapy❤ Enjoy being with her❤
Me, a therapist on a burnout, never felt more understood. Thank you for being so open, Linda. This might have been a very difficult video to make, but it is so pure.
Same! I’m still what you would call a young or newer therapist and burnout is real even at this stage. This video was so validating.
@@jasmynmoore2398 agreed! I am as well a young therapist, which became my entire identity. Struggling so much with my oen high expectations. I wish you all the best Jasmyn! 🩷
Also a therapist on a burnout. Hang in there!
From a promising student studying to teach, cut to a now permanently burnt out 30 year old unemployed dropout how has never done more other than one prior job b of being a secretary in the past (basically my dads assistant in his office), who started with such a promising future, but now has developed an inflammatory disease, has an ongoing battle with hair loss(it's better than last year thank god but still, short thin hair that I'm trying to regain back with holistic care that even THAT takes money yo have access to), with heart problems, with weight gain to the point of being 96 kilos and a small bump and a hump on my spine, with EVERYDAY headaches for the past three years that fluctuate, Livin back in my old home with my family, two parents with heart and financial problems that work to feed their unemployed daughter that is incompetent at this stage, a home that's also a not so clean one, with hoarding problems, having gained anxiety and depression and anger issues due to all this, please give me advice on how to deal with it and move on and start my life again. I'm heartbroken with my circumstances. Also I'm so sorry you're experiencing it as well, may you heal and thrive. 🙏
Linda…you are very gifted and I have enjoyed your videos so much, especially the ones that validate my peanut butter addiction :) It is amazing how much pressure we put on ourselves just to be in the world…you are not alone. I hope you find the peace inside yourself that you need.
The way you reflect on your life is soooo beautiful. Can’t even imagine the back end of creating THIS video. A true masterpiece. Thank you for sharing YOU 🫶🏽💕
Her mom and brother comforting literally has me on the verge of tears they're so supportive and I love that, if she has nothing else at least she has a caring family🥹
Linda, don't dwell over losing Gymshark as a partnership. It's not that you're not good enough or not doing enough...it's because your channel is becoming so much greater and in a direction of mental health and realism. Gymshark's vision and outlook is athleticism. There's nothing wrong with not being a great fit with Gymshark. Everyone has their own vision and it's not a direction that Gymshark represents at the moment.
You're moulding your channel into something that's representing you and being the voice that others don't have. You're doing bigger things Linda by showing your vulnerability and mental health struggles that most don't see or experience. That alone will bring more meaningful partnerships.
This is beautiful
Natasha Oceane dropped Gymshark because she didn’t agree with them and their ethos and she is more into athleticism than Linda. Natasha dropped them because she doesn’t agree with some of the “athletes” they promote as some say a lot of BS they have no idea what they tal about. I’d GS dropped Linda due to her talk more about her mental health, then that’s even more stupid. There are tons of great brands out there Linda can work with like Women’s Best
@@LBBrown414 women's best sadly isn't as great as i though it was :( their clothes that I bought from them have fallen apart in a few washes, aren't consistent sizing and I found out that they are actually run by men...but i agree with you, I hope Linda finds other great brands!
I honestly don’t like gymshark. They don’t seem like a company that focuses on the best “athletes” for their marketing. It’s more of 1) popular influencers and 2) people that look like the “ideal” fitness influencer and creatine junkies
💛
I just want to say you're not alone. Depression is so hard and it doesn't mean you have a bad life, it's a mental disorder that debilitates you. I'm glad mama sun was supportive :)
Thank you ❤️
"Pain isn't meant to be compared." This is one of the most eye-opening statements I heard in a long time
you're reading the inside of my brain... I support you. sending love
Ahhhhhhhhh blairr
The subscribers know that you are only 22 and still in a learning process. Your messages give us hope and encouragement, but sometimes, those messages can be wrong because YOU ARE ONLY 22. So stop blaming yourself for making mistakes. Stop pushing yourself to be PERFECT because, seriously, no one is perfect. We love you for just being you. I love your smile. I love your honesty. I don't love you for your fancy way of editing or your fancy gymshark cloth. I LOVE YOU FOR YOU.
Oh my goodness I love you. Thank you for this ❤️ THANK YOU FOR ACCEPTING MY HUMAN-NESS 😭
@@lindasunyt we're all on this journey together so don't be too hard on yourself !
ahhh your words are making me cry!! it's so beautiful❤thank you
Your editing.. your attention to detail.. your care… you are the most underrated person on the internet.
the editing is honestly too much, she inspires me so much to create my own content like definitely so underrated
This comment means more to me than you know thank you 🫶🏻
@@lindasunyt keep being you and change as much as you like bc that’s what life is about finding what makes us US and not anyone else ❤️
Your mom sounded so supportive. I feel like my mom would just say my generation is too sensitive and move on
This!! I could never cry to my parents about my mental health. They’d make some comment about how our generation is lazy , entitled and sensitive 😭 they definitely wouldn’t push me to take a break lol
As a therapist, this is the MOST BEAUTIFUL, MOST REALISTIC AND MOST ACCURATE depiction of the healing journey. Healing and growth is not linear. sometimes you feel like nothing is happening and no progress is being made, then other times you feel amazing and can see how far you’ve come, and then back to square one again!! And that cycle continues until one day you find yourself on the other side, feeling happy, healed and normal!
35yr old me crying and smiling through this whole video and heading out to gently hug my own life ❤️
Omg I love that 🥹 I’ll be over here hugging my life too
When I was in my 20s I didn't have an entire internet of strangers judging me and I think that is why this generation of youth is struggling so much. It's both a blessing and a curse to have social media. I think a lot of people resonate with how you're feeling.
MOTHER SUN IS SO GOATED!
She gives the best advice always, and is such a supportive mother 😌thank you so much Linda for opening your heart and minds into your world !
Your vulnerability is your superpower 🥺☺️💜!
Linda,
I started watching you back in 2021. I was struggling deeply with an eating disorder, and was unaware of the extent to which it had gotten. I watched your videos to feed my starving brain with images of food, and seeing someone else eat it. I came for the food, but I stayed because of you, and because of your wise words in every video. Throughout just the last two years, I have started healing and learning to love myself alongside you. I appreciate how you show how nonlinear progress really is. I truly believe you are part of the reason I am doing so much better today, and I can’t thank you enough for that.
Hope you're doing well, stay safe and healthy
Linda was sent from heaven to make this video so I COULD HEAL WITH HER!!!! 🥺 And congratulations for 1M subs 💕
Couldn't say it better❤️
LET’S DO THIS TOGETHER ❤️❤️❤️ and thank you 🥹
Blessings X
Your mom is the MVP!! She is such a supportive and nurturing mother, that’s so rare ❤ feel better Linda!
🥹🫶🏻 she reads all the comments so thank you for writing this one
The bit where your mother and brother are comforting you in Chinese was so powerful ... Thank you for sharing this raw and honest video with the world. You're still so young and you have your whole life ahead of you. Keep going
I cried during the whole video.
I went through a burnout last year, and I am still trying to heal from all my anxiety, my self depreciation, my fear, my sadness, my despair, my eating disorder, my work addiction.
I could relate to every single minute of this video. And it made me cry and cry and cry again. I actually feel kinda grateful for these tears, because they represent everything I have been holding back inside of myself for so long.
"Linda" means "beautiful" in spanish, and I could never have imagined a name that would suit you better. You are such a beautiful human being, bringing light in this world. Thank you for being. ❤️
I dropped out of college at the age of 19, I felt like everyone else had it all figured out yet. I fell into a severe depression, packed my bags and moved to the other side of the country to start over. Got a job, and slowly built my broken self up again. It took me 3 years. I moved back home last year, when I felt like I was myself again. Still not there yet but I am working on it. I even got back into university and this time I am super motivated and it feels definitely like a fit! I am even a student president, which I am proud of. Just trying to put myself out there again.:) It takes time but you’ll find happiness again, I promise!
Linda, I'm not one to comment on videos usually, but I felt like I was watching myself in so many ways. I'm almost 29 and I feel like I may have to start my life from scratch: burnt out, fresh off a breakup, lost. So many of the things you have said, I have said. Thank you for making me feel less alone. This video is so so so important for so many reasons. Know you are so incredibly loved and special, even if you may not feel it.
Starting from what feels like scratch is so scary feeling. I did it a couple years ago-I got a new job and left the most toxic place I’d ever worked at, I broke up with a long time partner, had to move into a new apartment and live on my own for the first time, and I applied to graduate school. I don’t think there was a single moment where I wasn’t afraid. And then it all passed and I continued to do what felt right and what made sense for me and now I’m in such a better, healed place. You can do it. You will find peace again. ❤
@@appprrriiilll thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful reply! I’m so happy you are doing well!
Thank YOU for making me feel less alone 🫶🏻 and thank you for sharing a part of your story with me. I’m rooting for us 🥹
@@lindasunyt ahhh thank you ❤️ we can do it!!
I cried so much while watching this video because I felt so unterstood and seen.. Thank you for being so vulnerable with us and sharing this part of your story❤
I was diagnosed with depression this year. This video was really hard to watch because I just truly felt it so much. The sentence “I can’t do this anymore” is a part of my day everyday. I am proud of Linda - and like her for just being so god dam sweet…, and I am always so excited to see Linda post. It is like the best moment of any day. 💗🙏
(No matter what it is about - happy or unhappy)
My dream is to be able to go to Indonesia someday.
☀🌄🌊
Appreciate your vulnerability - you help all of us in our own little way :) Also, shout out to your mom, her words really touch me.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Linda I never make comments on RUclips but I wanted to say thank you for adding the clips of you having mental breakdowns. It is so helpful to know I’m not alone, and I’m not the only person who screams and cries in my car when life gets hard.
The car screaming is definitely therapeutic (ideally we should be parked- safety first 😂) but thank you for this comment and for making me feel less alone ❤️
this whole video is guiding my inner monologue through my own struggles that mirror your feelings. cried 10x
linda oh my god i’m sobbing. i’ve never felt more reassured in my life. it is definitely a big step for you to go ahead and share all of this with us - we’re all really so proud of you for coming so far and i’m so glad that you’ve found yourself in the process. you’re so deserving of all the happiness and love that you give
I’m a 60 year old woman from Detroit who has watched you since the lockdown. I find you TOTALLY relatable! I started buying Gymshark outfits because I loved how you looked in them. Your emotional pain and struggles gave me tears and goosebumps. There’s a saying in Zen “Let suffering be your teacher”. We learn nothing when our lives are going well. There is meaning in YOUR suffering, it just hasn’t revealed it’s self to you, yet. Develop boundaries in all aspects of your life to protect yourself. I value you 😘. Peace, comfort and blessings to you……☮️💟✝️
sending you love from possibly the other side of Detroit haha
ahh this is such a sweet message i love it ❤
Well said ❤
The rawness of this has reduced me to tears. I never thought someone could relate to how I feel. This has bought me so much comfort. Thank you for being so raw and vulnerable. You are not alone. I'm glad I found your little corner of the internet
I’m so glad you’re here too ❤️ sending you SO much love
Same !!
Same it bought me so much comfort as well! 😌😌
I just LOVE how wise and supportive your mom is and that you showed that in the video as well.
YOU ARE SO STRONG LINDA for being this vulnerable on social media! We love you! You'll get through this! Prayers for you and your family 🙏
This made me sob so much because I’m going through the same - hearing my exact toxic thoughts coming out of someone else’s mouth is so weird and surreal but also comforting cuz at least ik I’m not alone - to everyone, we got this! 💗❤ T^T
I related to this SO HARD that it was painful to watch. I felt that screaming in my soul. Linda conveyed exactly how it feels to be in that place, the infuriating inability to escape yourself, hating yourself for how weak you are, knowing that you create your own reality but not being able to take control for some reason. I watched this in my car on my lunch break today and I couldn’t stop crying happy tears afterwards, realising how far I’ve come and how happy and grateful I am to be on the other side of those feelings now. I have compassion for myself and contentment for my life. Nothing in it really changed, but I did. Just know it IS possible, and you DO got this!! 💕
@@TarzHall That’s amazing and I’m so glad for u! Thank u for ur kind words :,) ❤️
I’ve never felt so much pain from RUclips video, but it was a learning curve for me.. out of every single video you have ever made this one has meant the most to me. We love you Linda and your compassion, and thank you for helping us all understand what it is to be ourself
Thank you ❤️ it means so much to me
“I ate food with my heart” quite literally burst into tears from this statement ❤
your mom is so supportive i love the way she talks to you and comforts you. thanks for sharing
I can’t fully explain how beautiful and important and meaningful this video is to me. So I just want to say thank you linda for being you, thank you for existing, thank you making this video.
Thank you for existing too 🥹❤️
I echo this sentiment exactly
It’s very brave of you to share this. We have to go through the muck to get to the other side. Sending you lots of love and healing! And if you decide to leave RUclips then that is ok too!
So true 🫶🏻 and thank you 🥹
Thanks for letting us cry with you! ❤
im balling my eyes out at how much i can relate. thank you for giving me hope
Im sure this was a very hard video to make and edit but I want to thank you on behalf of people that needed this to inspire them to take time for themselves. I finally learned how to take care of myself for me probably earlier this year. I am so happy to see others learn how to take time to heal 💗
i cant believe i cried watching the entire video, LINDA IF YOU ARE READING THIS 10 YEARS DOWN THE LANE YOU WILL BE THRIVING AND WOULD HAVE CHOSEN THE BEST PATH FOR YOUR HAAPPINESS, U CAN DO IT
hearing your mother be so supportive made me so happy and emotional I'm happy you had someone like that
I love how your mom is always there for you. Best of luck!
This was honestly so therapeutic. One day, I'll tell my kids that Linda was my best friend who listened to all of my problems and helped deal with them. Love you and please take care of yourself. ❤
It’s an HONOUR ❤️
Honestly lately I've been feeling empty I know I have everything in life that I need but I still feel empty and watching your videos gives me motivation to do something new everyday and start focusing on myself my happiness and not just on my weight my body shape my face but I want to focus on me thank you linda you are the most amazing person ever don't ever let anyone tell you your worth
Honestly I felt like that a month back, and the only thing that truly help me was vlog and do yt videos, but it is hard and I can relate so much to linda's video
Sending you all the love and hugs in the world Linda . We are all here backing you❤️❤️
I'm not even halfway through this video but I just needed a break. Watching this is feeling like a journey throughout a very rough time I had in my life 2 years ago. By that time I felt so powerless, I've given all of my best things to a life I didn't wanted anymore and felt trapped in someone else's experiences. Learning (again) to enjoy and fulfill my life with meaning and dreams that grew from my heart and my needs changed everything. It's just so nice to have a break, to look around, to let life get to your core and think: "this is where I ought to be", with sincere gratitude. I hope everyone having a rough time find the strength to move forward, just as I did; and I hope you encounter a more happy version of yourself along the ride
It hit me hard when she said "when things change inside of you is when things change around you" SO true!!
Thank you for being so vulnerable with us, Linda. Regardless if whatever you have in your life, if you live in "luxury", never invalidate your struggles and your feelings. You are allowed to feel unhappy, you never should feel guilty for how you feel. Watching your videos give me so much comfort, and I will always be cheering for you ❤❤
Thank you from the bottom of my heart 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Thank you Linda for being open, your feelings are so valid! We appreciate you.
i love every bit of this video! the message, your story, the editing... everything is beautiful. Thank you for this
I cried twice.. Thank you sharing this. “You’re doing your best” sat with me for sure.
I've been watching your videos for 3 years now. I just want to let you know that you've been such an inspiration. You created this community that supports food, failing and healing. I'm glad you're finding a way to get back to you. You deserve happiness and all the beautiful things.
I'm proud to say that I kind of grew up with you. Thank you for taking care of yourself and just let you be 💐
I'm so grateful for your existence and everything that you share with us, the internet. It makes me feel less alone and it's very comforting.
I am SO proud of you for taking time to rest, you've helped so many of us over the years and you deserve so so so much to find peace and happiness as well ❤️
Lindaa the amount of comfort your videos bring is seriously unexplainable. I literally cannot thank you enough ♥
🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 thank you for being here
this video genuinely brought tears to me eyes. Thank you for sharing your most vulnerable moments with us Linda, thank you for giving us a part of you heart for us to see. Thank you for letting us in on your journey :) we will always be supporting you
🥹🫶🏻 ily thank you for taking the time to write this it means a lot to me
Really appreciate this video and how open and honest you have been, it's a beautiful thing to just be ourselves unedited x
woah linda this is such a vulnerable yet healing video. thank you so much for being real in every clip of it.
First, I cannot even imagine how you felt before pressing upload. This must have been one of the hardest thing to sit down an edit, but one of the most healing too. Looking back at your journey, and seeing how far you've actually come. Remembering those bad moments with a new mindset and finally seeing the progress that could not be seen at the time.
Second, I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my hear for allowing us to view a literally summary of what might be one of the hardest times in your life. I myself do some vlogs, and love sharing content to help others. But recently also had to take a break to prioritise my exams, as I know that I could not do everything, I felt like a failure for the whole time I couldn't upload, because I love creating. I love RUclips, I love making content, and it is honestly so hard now not to do it. So thank you for this reminder, because this week I don't think I am going to be able to upload something I am proud of, because of a recent event that happen, and I was already feeling worthless.
So thank you really for showing us this rawness, and I hope you are now in a better place, that you are feeling what we all already know about you, how worthy you are and that you have a whole life ahead of you.
Thank you
Thank you so much for this comment and please keep creating and sharing your content ❤️ it matters :)
@@lindasunyt You don’t know how much this means to me coming from someone that inspires me everyday to provide a break from reali-Tea for others
I have a feeling that we might meet one that but until then all I can say is THank you 😊
DAMN THIS EDITING IS WILD
AND YOU ARE SO LOVED AND APPRECIATED!! SUPER HAPPY FOR YOU!!
You are ENOUGH. You deserve the world. THANK YOU, LINDA. Needed this😩❤️
Anyone at any time can have mental health challenges. Thank you, Linda, for this message through vulnerability & connection ✨
Hey Linda. This video made me so sad. Not because out of any outside pity because this was my life 3 years ago. You are more than your pain, your wandering, your anxiety, your less than thoughts, you are so much more. This journey is tough, it really is. But I can see you're taking the small But very very monumental steps to find what you like again. That's really important!!! And thank you for sharing your therapy clips, I didn't start until about a year ago where I was facing a crisis myself but you have no idea how valuable that insight you and your therapist have worked towards. Thank you for sharing this. For awareness for Future/Present Linda and for us :) you're doing great love. Just one step at a time.
'You should be grateful', 'you aren't fighting the depression hard enough', 'you are being too emotionally weak', 'stop having this stupid self pity' and so much more comments I have had to deal with while going through everything you through in this video. I must say I understand you, it hurts when you are both grateful and still sad about not doing enough but people think I am throwing a pity party for myself.
I am glad you had therapy and Mama Sun. You'll be so much better. Prayer and thoughts to people who can't afford therapy 💔
Seeing all the therapy sessions in the beginning and then your mama breaks it down perfectly. Gotta love our mom's
Being an influencer is amazing and extremely taxing. I could never do what you do, but you put so much good into the world. Praying for you! You are a blessing
I cried watching this whole video. It was so raw and so relatable ❤❤❤
feeling sad when I felt like I had nothing to be sad for was when I realized how depressed I was. I wish you well on your journey to heal yourself.
So relatable! Thank you for posting this and sharing your vulnerability with us. You are amazing.
Really loved how this video made me feel. Also love hearing your mom be so supportive.
Thank you Linda for being here, i’ve been there when i was losing my self a couple years before, but slowly and surely i found my self bit by bit. Let’s heal together and enjoy the journey and the process. 😊
It's so difficult to pick yourself back up when you're trying to heal and keep failing over and over again. This was so beautifully written and put together
Always wishing you the best Linda!! 🥹
Being a follower watching you since ages, this made me cry. Your videos are my absolute favourite and I relate to them every single time! The world of social media always makes us feel like we are not enough. I wish you happiness, strength and power.
You’re momma is so sweet and patient. Glad you had her throughout this ❤
First, mother Sun we love you. Second you don't know how much impact you have in our lives. You are such an inspiration to many people and that is one of the biggest goals you can achieve in life. I pray for you to get better, don't forget just live day by day. I really needed this words rn and I came here just to find comfort but I end up with a beautiful idea of how life should be lived. You are important. YOU MATTER AND ALWAYS WILL. We love you and we are your family. Thank you. Thank you for being here. Thank you.
I love you. Thank you. So so much ❤️
Constantly being told how ‘privileged’ you are can be draining. It’s ok to be frustrated. Everything is relative to what you’re used to. You are worth so much to us Linda!!! You work very hard and deserve everything you have. You have earned all of your success. Don’t invalidate yourself❤❤❤
What you’re going through is totally relatable. Thank you for bravely sharing your struggles. It gives me courage to acknowledge the mixed emotions I have about my career as well.
congratulations on 1M linda. We all love you so much, your videos just feel like a big hug 💌
Facts.
You’re doing so great Linda! Please don’t be too hard on yourself! Your videos inspire so many people including myself. This quote has helped me in times like this, "no amount of self-improvement will ever make up for a lack of self-love". Thanks for all you’ve done Linda. 😊
Thank you for helping me put myself back together when I feel so broken💜
I am so glad you healed and took the time to take care of yourself!
Linda, you are the reason why I wanted to be healthy again. You are the reason why I wanted to heal and started to heal. Thank you, with all my heart, I say thank you. For being here, for all of us. Even when you didn't feel like it yourself. You can do it, you're not alone.
Love, Isabel
Your videos are one of the most inspiring videos here on this platform! You have helped so many people around the world with all your words 🧡 thank you for being you Linda! 🌻🫶🏼✨
Girl you honestly had me in tears during The Last Straw. It's so moving to see someone so talented feel this way. Your content is enough and so are you ❤
so much love for you and all your videos. keep showing up exactly as you are
you make me feel so much less alone on this journey of finding balance. you are so brutally honest and show a side of life that most hide from social media, and I really appreciate that. thank you Linda
mother suns encouragement brought teeny tears to my eyes. what a lovely and understanding woman. i'm so glad you had her during these times.
i didnt know how much i needed to hear this. thank you linda❤
So incredibly healing and comforting, I can't thank you enough
This is so relatable. I spent all of last and this school year in a fight/flight trauma state and with bad burnout. It's so difficult and it's rare to find people who are willing to share their similar and different experiences. And healing does feel so stagnant and invisible. I find so many similarities between what you are expressing and how I do and have felt and I thank you for sharing your experience. You remind me I'm not alone. I don't know if a therapist has ever suggested you being neurodivergent but since I started watching you that has made sense to me because I have been diagnosed and it made a lot of boxes click when before I thought I was crazy. Thank you so much for sharing your experience and voice.
Linda❣ You are so much more than a youtuber. You are an incredible story-teller, an artist, essential representation for Asians, a voice for young POCs, an empath, a friend, and so much more! I can't believe how lovely you are and you are you are only 22! You are wiser beyon your years. As I grow older I feel that happiness is not conditional, and it's the human condition to be unhappy. But that's how we connect to each other; your sadness, compassion and vulnerabilty are so beautiful. As a person who has so much empathy, I think it has propelled you to your success (even though I hate this word), but it must be so exhausting that you supply your subscribers with all your empathy. Your sadness is valid, and the way you use it to connect to people sets an example to our society. Especially because we politicize happiness, then shame people for not being happy. Never change!
This video just felt like a hug to my heart. Never imagined someone was feeling exactly how I felt this past year. Thanks so much for your content linda! it really gave me the answers I really needed right now. Thank you so so much. You rock!!
oh gosh, it took a while to finish watching this video and I cried multiple times, but THIS WAS SO POWERFUL. I always wondered how you can have a life with these crazy good cutted videos. There was a time where I didn't like watching you as much because everything seemed so perfect. This video really touched my whole heart and I also feel like I needed to watch it for kinda realizing I'm on my way doing too much as well. I'm sure it'll take some time but thank you so much for this!!!
PS: your mum is also so good in finding the right words!
You asked a question from yourself all the time "Why am I not able to do things that everyone else can do?". There was one thing, what my therapist told me: "Because you are NOT everyone, or anybody else. YOU are YOU, and everybody have there own problems, what they have to struggle with. Nobody is perfect, every healing process takes time. Maybe you need more. But it's TOTALLY okay." Just do what you feel is good for you! 💕 You helped me a lot during this 3 years! It's your turn now. We don't really help you, but we will do anything, what will help you! We are supporting you!
You are honestly a wonderful human Linda, hope you’ll find your inner peace and feel how beautiful and worthy you are ❤
I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH!😭😭🙏🏾 I experienced burnout like this earlier this year and I feel like I’m still in the recovery. So I relate so much to this! And I’ve been burnt out many times throughout my 20s and as I get closer and closer to 30 it feels like I’m reaching an endpoint. But I definitely love that this came up now even a month after you posted it and I feel like it was right on time for me. So thank you for sharing your vulnerability, for sharing what you went through, for sharing resources. This video is a blessing and shows the realness of what a lot of people experience, but are too afraid to say or don’t even realize they’re going through.
As your fellow subscriber, I know, and I’m sure a lot of us if not all of us know that you’re a work in progress that we are all a work of progress. We watch your channel for you through all the stages of your life. No matter what kind of contact you post we will be here. We just want you to be OK. But it looks like you’ve got this and this video resonated with a lot of us because I think a lot of us are feeling this way whether we wanna except it or not. Love you, Linda.♥️♥️
