- Another Anxious Girl Adventure 🤗. In this anxiety vlog we're going to a perfume making class...alone. After about a month and a half of pushing myself to get out of my house more, I decided it was time to take the next step and challenge not just my general anxiety, but my social anxiety. A class felt like a good way to ease back into flexing my social muscle and it ended up being a success in more ways than one...

🙋♀️ ABOUT ME:
My name is Morgan and I'm a 20-something living in Chicago who loves thrifting, slow fashion (slow living in general), caring for the planet, tea (the liquid kind and the dramatic kind), being outdoors, having deep conversations, having frivolous conversations, and of course making silly lil videos. I hope you have a laugh, learn something new, or feel little less alone while you're here. 💛

12 year old me cannot even fathom that 28 year old me completely forgot about What Not to Wear until now!! What a gem that show was 😂
I was always the awkward kid that turned to books for friends. In university it was youtube, so I very much relate to watching OG youtubers and drawing comfort from them. Perfume making sounds so cool and now I want to do it! Love from Canada 🇨🇦❤
Books were another big source of comfort for me too! Harry Potter was my go to haha. Thank you so much for watching 💛
The best thing I have done for my social anxiety is get a job as a barista a block from my house. It has allowed me to become familiar with my neighbors and more with a sense of separation that made me feel a little less vulnerable bc I was representing the cafe rather than myself. Having many low-stakes social interactions has also made me much less affected by saying the wrong thing or something like that because it is unavoidable for the most part and happens to everyone. Today I walked home from my campus and had four different people of completely different ages and demographics say hi to me and it hit me that I became a part of my community without even realizing it. I am proud of everyone who is trying to push themselves out of their comfort zones!
this made me really emotional. I struggle with anxiety as well and the smallest things are big challenging things to me. these episodes make me feel like I'm not alone with these struggles so thank you for sharing
Your struggles are so valid and you're not alone - sending the love right back at ya 💛

I never comment on videos, due to anxiety that I will say the wrong thing 😅 but in the spirit of the video here goes...thank you for this series, the algorithm really did it's job bringing me here and i have never related so much to a video. It's so comforting to know other people have the same thoughts and see how it's possible to get past them. I also really appreciate your sense of humour👌
I related so much to this video. Being alone as an adolescent and always worrying you were super weird and that you shouldn't talk to people.... Seeing you being emotional I just felt so much affection and good will towards you and this endeavour to form human connections. I guess I always think that people are mean and judgemental and you've created a beautiful community of sensitive open people. So thank you Morgan! im really glad I found your channel.
This is so sweet 🥹. Thank you so much for being here and sharing your experience. Cheers to human connection and sensitive open people 💛
@@morganevelyncook and to you dear brave woman for opening up and showing it’s ok and there’s like minded feeling people out there
Oh the social anxiety! Love these videos thank you for sharing ❤
Oh, happy tears 🥹
I love watching you be brave it helps me be braver
i love watching this journey!! i totally relate to this feeling of being surprised about what you're really capable of and how many people seem to care about you when you don't realize!
I relate to this video so much, I was the one no one wanted to hang out with. Thank you so much for sharing your journey!
Thank YOU so much for watching. Sending all the good vibes your way 💛
I get panic attacks out of nowhere to this day, due to anxiety. Thanks for your channel!!! It helps so much!
And so does your dog!!! I'm dying to know where you got her/him. Such a nice shade of red and put together well and sweet!
The emotional part got me emotional. I'm struggling to plan an event that is a big deal for me (a summer party with many friends of mine (who don't all know each other)) and it stresses me out everytime I think about it. It's next month and I hope I don't cancel it because of anxiety but I feel terrified at the idea that something goes wrong or that people don't meet their expectations when coming to my party. I hope I can do what you said : "capable of doing the things that scare me" and make my 13-yo-self proud. It's still a work in progress haha.
thank you for this video and all the other. your presence on social media is a blessing.
Combining friend groups stresses me out SO much too. You've got this though - sending you all the positive vibes 💛
❤
Your words at the end were so heart warming! That's awesome, that you made this experience, I am so happy for you! :)
I'm looking forward for your next projects😊 You will get this!
This series is an inspiration for me. I can't go on a walk alone, if I don't have a destination. For me, it's just arkward😅 But you made me do it, to walk more often alone and I'm still on my way, to overcome this arkwardness...😅😁
I feel this, sometimes going on walks alone with a destination. I like to pretend I’m going to visit things in my neighborhood- the tree stumps, the dogs, there’s someone who crotchet these sleeves? For their four stop signs near their house and I like to see what’s new. It helps give me purpose/motivation to go.
I’m realizing I don’t like to usually go do things alone. Like if I want to go to the thrift store I often feel like I want to go with someone but I can go alone!
Baby steps, we can do hard things 🫶🏻
You're so sweet 🥰. I'm so glad this has provided some inspo for you. You got this! The more you do it, the less awkward it starts to feel. Plus the important thing is just that you're doing it at all! 💛
We love you!
💛💛💛
Thank you, truly, for everything you share! It feels like a hug from someone who just gets you, because you've created a space for all of us! ♥
This comment felt like a warm hug 🥰. Thank you for being here!
I love this for you, I actually got emotional with you at the end of the video. Love from Szczecin, Poland
I’m so proud/excited for you!!! I wish I lived in Chicago so I can go too 😅 St. Louis is close enough right 😄✌️🙊 excited for the spring wardrobe thrifting video
I’m only at :38 and paused just to say you’re one of the most related humans I’ve come across in the internet 😂 every day of my LIFE I wonder what it’s like to be someone without social anxiety.
You and me both hahah. Happy you're here 💛
I anted to say that I love your striped sweater but realized that you wore two different ones in this video ;) So, I love the second, more pastel one :) You looked lovely :) Maybe you would like to look into a color analysis. It helped me so much with buying new clothes. I am a Light Spring. I think the first sweater had a funny set of colors itself that made it really difficult to match with a coat etc.
This was very inspiring! ❤
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it 😊
