    • @GarrettBlackmon
      @GarrettBlackmon Год назад +2

      sup boss, Let me know what you think of this, but I'm an extremely extraverted person. House parties from highschool to this day (I'm 28). I have introverted friends that play games during my parties, usually, I put their gameplay on the TV and just DJ music over it. There is literally no judgement from me for not wanting to play card games with me and the drunks. Is that what's scary? judgement from the social people? or is it just a self feeling of inadequacy?

    • @CRASHFISTFIGHTProductions
      @CRASHFISTFIGHTProductions Год назад +6

      @@GarrettBlackmon At least for me, I feel like a lot of introverts probably feel "different" from other people in lots of scenarios because we just don't have the mental capacity to meet new people and talk a lot. For example, I personally have been going to lots of parties recently and I talk and mingle and dance and do all those things, but I've found that the very extroverted people seem to be able to do this for such a longer time than I can, and it inevitably leads me to peacing out before most, or in scenarios where I spend the night, I'm just kinda on autopilot for the rest of the night while everyone else recaps the party. So while the judgment from social people is a fear at times, I've been beginning to learn that like you say, usually nobody is really judging you for not being incredibly outgoing. But for introverts you can't help but compare yourselves to others and notice how much more energy they have when it comes to those kind of events/situations

    I relate sooo much with what Andrew said at the end. I have a core memory when I was like 4 years old, of my neighbor saying “aw he’s so shy". I’ve always tried to push myself out of this comfort zone my whole life such as joining musical theatre and stuff like that, and it actually helps! But sometimes like last night In a public setting around new people especially I feel just locked in a cage, feeling like my body won’t allow me to look at certain people for too long or shit like that. Just extreme self governing. And lately my brain has been making people “the enemy” rather than realizing it’s all love.

    Here's one for the Suggestions box: Since you're usually picking up these nice picturesque backgrounds to do the interview, I think it would be really cool/artsy if U literally turn the camera on yourself towards the end of the video in the same location, sit down and give us the same genuine input as the the people U interviewed.

    Hey Andrew if you ever read this, what made you ask Amelia "What would you change about yourself?" instead of her biggest insecurity?
    Also, I don't know/remember your exact history with mental health, besides depression, but did you ever get diagnosed or tested for AD(H)D? Together with being highly intelligent and creative, it could explain your troubles with dealing with negative emotions. I see a lot of similarities with myself and I've only recently been diagnosed, only because I'm a psychologist myself and have always been thinking about myself and "what's wrong".
    For you and anyone interested in the combination of AD(H)D and emotions, I can highly recommend the book "Smart but Stuck".

    Born with Mars in the romantic mutable water sign Pisces, you tend to sit back and see what direction life flows in, preferring to sit in the moment and dream about your goals. Your energy is extremely empathic, intuitive, and maybe even a bit psychic, and you could channel your gifts as a healer into your work. Anger can be painful for you to work through, because you realize just how rooted it is in your emotional wounds. But dealing with your anger is essential to preempting it from getting internalized and morphing into sadness or depression.

    I just feel like commenting this but my biggest insecurity is my sex addiction that has been a direct result of the things that I have consumed throughout my life. (Porn, multiple sexual partners, etc) I hypersexualize everything, both with men and women, (mostly women) but it has lead to such a heavy stressor in my everyday life (workplace, going for a walk in a public area, etc.) I just feel so exposed everywhere I go because of where my mind takes me. I feel like such a menace to society, but I take full responsibility for it though, and have started to go to meetings, listen to podcasts, talk about it with my therapist. I don't know who else goes through this same one but shit do indeed be difficult.

    How about you Andrew? What's your biggest insecurity? I guarantee you will never be forgotten by the millions and millions of people whose childhoods you have brightened with your pranks. We all remember you somewhere in our minds. :D

      ​@@LAHWF Oh, I had paused the video when you interviewed Marya and then got lost in the comments. Wow, I did not expect you to be so honest in your own answer there at the end. You're an incredible person. You should never feel bad about being introverted/low-energy. You are highly intelligent. Being high-energy is exhausting and usually involves being very shallow and babbling about extremely uninteresting things. High intelligence usually makes that kind of behavior very draining and painful. You're just a really smart guy in a world of shallow TikTokers, and yeah it can make you feel alien but you are absolutely not alien, nor are you alone. There are so many others who feel the exact same way as you do. We're not all made to be the "all singing, all dancing cr-p of the world".
      As for your creativity and imagination, creative ideas and just you as a person: You are one of the most genuine people on this planet. It's so refreshing to see your honesty in a world where everyone's masking their true selves. You also bring out the best in people when you interview them. Your energy seems to bring them down to a calmer state where they also answer more honestly. You're seriously a great person and you are doing a great job with your creative output. Yesterday, I sent one of your videos to a friend. His reaction as "wow, I remember him, he's awesome!" and then he was hooked on your new interviews.
      I really wish you the peace of mind you deserve. Thank you for having made my childhood so much fun. And it's beautiful seeing you again as a deeper and more mature creator. Merry Christmas, Andrew! :)

      @@LAHWF I just remembered that you also mentioned procrastination. It's completely natural. You've been pushing yourself to create, and that's very exhausting in its own way. Then there's the worry about the future that we all have, about income, about life in general. Including the fact that RUclips is a stressful job where you have to wonder whether any time away from the platform will lead to losing your entire audience. And then on top of that there's your high intelligence which makes you self-doubt about whether your own creations are actually good or not. All of that creates a bunch of negative emotions around creation, which in turn infests the whole thing and makes you feel tired -- and that's what leads to putting things off. Which in turn stresses you out about not getting any creative output, not finishing, not creating, worrying about fading away -- which in turn leads to self-medicating to release that stress and anxiety, and so on.
      Just know that all of that is completely natural. We're not made to push ourselves the way you've been. RUclips isn't a natural job for a human being. Heck, entertainment business isn't a natural job. That's what's unnatural here. Your feelings are completely natural. You're just a human like all of us, trying to figure things out. The secret is actually in your own name: "Losing all hope was freedom". Chuck Palahniuk was spot-on that nothing really matters that much. As long as you are happy with yourself and you've put out some good energy into the world, you've done your part. And you've already made millions and millions of people smile. Why push yourself super hard and burn yourself out? Relax, create at your own pace, on the days where you feel like it. When you feel that creative spark again. And please try not to be so harsh on yourself. You're experiencing classical burnout. Your mind shields itself by procrastinating. That's the body's sign that you need a break from all the thoughts and all the pressure. Or, at least, a break from the anguish of being so self-critical, which seems to be the biggest component of the negative feelings. You're so much better than you seem to realize, Andrew. Your videos are fascinating and serious, and you're doing a wonderful job being something much deeper in a world of shallow TikTokers. :)
      My favorite of all your creative output has been the sit-down interviews with various people, and these street interviews with strangers. Like I said before, you bring out the deeper conversations from people very naturally. That's your greatest gift, Andrew. You're much, much greater than you seem to realize. :)

      ​@@vigoolz241 I am so happy to hear that. Most pain seems to stem from comparing ourselves to others and trying to behave as "the hivemind" asks us to, in a world that's constantly focusing on the negative and the trivial. It's more important to ask: Why? Why act like that? Why do they act like that? What's the point?
      If you can work on letting go of the world and its pressures, and finding joy in the beautiful moments that are around you all the time, you'll feel such a relief. Everyone gets so bogged down in small details, and miss the big picture: You are beautiful. You matter. Your life isn't worth less or more than anyone else's. Nobody has really figured out life. We're all here staring at smartphones while we're spinning through space on a huge rock, circling around a massive fireball, in a Universe that inevitably arose from absolutely nothing. The greatest miracle has already happened, and you are it.
      There's so much beauty to be happy about in every life. Sometimes it can be hard to see it, but it's there. Watch a sunset at the ocean and tell me you feel nothing? Even something simple, like putting a blanket over yourself and watching a cozy movie is a miracle. You're watching that movie while you're flying through space on a giant rock spaceship, traveling at 107,226 km/h (66,627 mph) around the sun. What the hell, man. That's mindblowing! Let go of what doesn't matter. Relax. And enjoy the ride!
      If you're feeling overwhelmed, try letting go of the things that matter the least. It usually just means that you've taken on too many things that don't matter and which just compete for your attention. No wonder there's chaos in there. ;) But you'll figure it out. Ask your heart what you feel good about and focus on that. :) If you're feeling like you're being judged by others, I would say that you should never feel bad about what makes you feel good. It's your life, not theirs. So much unhappiness comes from trying to conform and fit into the hivemind's "boxes". Most of them are just trying to force you into their own boxes to make you validate their own world views, so that they can feel like they've made the right choice. But the truth is that they haven't figured anything out either. Just relax, enjoy the little miracles of life, and do what makes you happy. :)
      Letting go of negativity and pain might actually feel difficult at first, since you've had a lifetime of taking on the pain of each time you've ever doubted yourself... but you will get better at it with practice. You can learn to realize that it ultimately doesn't matter. We're on this freakish, cool rock-based spaceship, which used to have massive freaking Dinosaurs on it, and we're all a bit weird and crazy! This whole planet is a crazy, weird miracle! Desperate people are trying to force others into boxes, without realizing that it's all arbitrary and all decided by... who, exactly? And why would their opinions about life be more valid than yours? Who exactly decides all of that? Honestly... You do. We all decide for ourselves. There's no such thing as a wasted life or a "wrong" life. Every person you see around you, with all of their "super important problems", and "super important jobs" and all their wealth, will all be gone in the blink of an eye not long from now. We're all here for such a short time, so don't waste it living other people's lives. Live your own life. It's all good. It's all beautiful. You are beautiful. Stop running and start looking at the beauty all around you and in yourself. The beautiful little moments of life are already all around you. :)
