This "x is so privileged so they're not allowed to be stressed about things and sad about missed opportunities in their life" is such a weird train of thought That's not how human emotions work Policing another person's emotions and expression like this is so non-emphatic?
Hey Eve, I'm a language student at Oxford too but was granted dispensation from the year abroad due to health problems in 2020. Just here to say that I think you're absolutely right to feel incredibly angry and distressed by how the university have approached the travel situation. The advice is pretty much: exploit every loophole to get to the target country, possibly incur huge costs on quarantine hotels when you want to return to the UK, and then not even have a valuable experience when you're in the country because there's still so many restrictions in place. I think it's disgraceful and hugely irresponsible - no duty of care whatsoever on their part and no consideration of the financial implications for students. Never feel guilty about feeling shit: everyone is as entitled to sadness as they are to happiness. Sending you lots of love and I hope your health issues are resolved soon!
I hate the notion that you can’t be sad because someone is sadder because it’s like saying you can’t be happy because someone is happier. I am really struggling right now with online uni we have barely any teaching, all lectures are pre recorded and they have removed our no detriment that we had last year because this lockdown ‘wasn’t unexpected’??? We also were told that they have adapted assignments to suit the new teaching style but we still had to do group presentations online we love to see it. The only time uni students are thought about is when people are blaming them when so many of us are just stuck in our bedrooms doing uni with no support and paying 9k for the privilege. But I still know that I am lucky to be able to be doing a degree so I feel like I shouldn’t be feeling this way. Apologies for the rant! Also I have endometriosis and I was put on rigevidon when I was in sixth form to help manage it but it made my mood awful I actually could not cope but it was hard because it helped with my endo symptoms so I didn’t want to come off it but I went back to the doctors about it and they put me on microgynon and it works so much better for me!❤️
“This whole thing has beaten the love for my degree out of me” I am SO glad to hear that someone else feels this way! I have completely fallen out of love with my degree, with learning, with education in general! I was determined and so motivated and on the road to achieve a First this time last year and now I genuinely don’t see myself finishing this year at all. It’s so SO hard being any type of student during this, it’s absolutely heartbreaking!
Please Eve ignore the people on those forums. One day I stumbled across it and oh my gosh all I saw was hateful, bitter middle age women that did not have anything else to do. I honestly felt sorry for them! Uour thriving, you will have a great future so please don't take any notice to those people.
It breaks my heart to hear of people being so relentlessly horrible to you. It’s honestly much more reflective of their insecurities and the negative things happening in their lives for them to take the time to be so cruel towards you. You’re doing your absolute best, and I can honestly relate to hormones and lockdown in general beating the life and happiness out of you! You’ve inspired me so much and do not deserve any of these comments. I find it scary how people have the ability to behave with such little empathy. Nobody has the right to tell you how to live! Thank you for being so open and letting us know we’re not alone xx
Ikr like people don’t have any right to judge how others are feeling - everyone is pretty much struggling and the only way to get through it is together. Especially considering Eve is so nice and real too
With you being so open with your struggles in a weird way feels really refreshing! Being able to sit here and relate to your struggles is really comforting
I love the videos in which you're talking about your mental state during the pandemic because it always gives me the feeling that it's okay to articulate that I'm unhappy at the moment although of course I am so privileged and others have it way harder than me.
As someone that is going to be applying to university soon I like hearing about how different unis have treated their student during the pandemic, it's helped me rule out certain unis completely.
I am SO sorry that uni has been so harsh to you and all the other language students. I can totally understand how stressed you are and you shouldn't have to apologise for expressing that. Sending you so much love, just keep taking things one day at a time gal xxx
I really appreciate you opening up, sending you love. My family are very toxic in terms of positivity, it has made me feel better hearing you acknowledge that it is hard for everyone right now.
Idk if this is normal during a pandemic but I've literally also been having a huge identity crisis since the autumn 😭 unrelated but also your hair in this video and in the past few videos is just goals 😍
same! ive been having such an intense prolonged identity wobble, probably since around august but we've got this! trusting we'll all work things out in the end
It’s so comforting seeing that it’s not just me!! I’ve been feeling so disillusioned with myself, as though someone could ask me a question about what I like/my hobbies or something and I’d just draw a blank?? Like I just don’t know myself anymore?? It must be to do with the pandemic if there is a lot of us struggling. Not long now I’m sure and we’ll all be free and begin to rebuild ourselves 💕
Same!! It’s because we have so much time to ourselves that we start to notice things we didn’t realise (often false things that only we think) which means loads of people are having self esteem issues. Mixed with the fact I started sixth form in September but during COVID obviously so I feel like I’m not really there yet
The amount of disclaimers in this video! Your feelings are completely valid, and as a viewer I can completely see how delicately you are discussing the pandemic. Hope you are feeling better soon, being a woman sucks. Melanie Murphys sister (I think she is called Jessica Brennan?) has PCOS so if you wanted to check out her videos!
Eve - you're health issues really resonated with me. I went through similar issues myself around 2 years (not pcos, but a pituitary gland issue). It took over a year to receive a diagnosis. Before I was diagnosed, I had soooo much heath anxiety, not knowing what's wrong with me. I hope you find out soon whether it is pcos or not. And remember so many people are going through the same thing and you are not alone xxx 💞
you're such a legend, going through so much crap and still telling everyone that its okay to feel shit and their problems are valid - keep pushing through you're doing a great job! It'll be better soon
When all this started we were given a non detriment policy. Now in 3rd year in this new lockdown we haven’t been given another and our uni is saying it’s not a new experience anymore and we basically should be used to working in a pandemic now. Couple that with the fact that we are primary education students and can’t have our final placement in schools at the moment while trying to write a dissertation and apply for jobs! I know how you feel about your uni. It feels like they don’t have a human approach to this and consider the effects on us.
My uni is the same, the only “safety net” they’ve kept is allowing us to apply for a 10 day EC without needing to provide any evidence. It’s ridiculous and so stressful! It makes me so sad how dehumanising universities have been this year. It makes me so angry!
Shocked at how Oxford is handling the situation. Rest assured you've made the right choice, there's nothing to feel guilty about! Hope you feel better, both physically and mentally
I graduated Ox in 2013 (so I'm basically elderly for this channel!) but just wanted to say I really feel for everything students are currently going through. Having been through Ox finals relatively recently, I do think they will mark fairly, they just need to get better at communicating this and realising that students are under a lot of pressure and need reassurance sometimes. Please stop reading your hate forums, I can't believe they exist (what a sad little life, Jane...) , you have nothing to feel bad about. I took a year out post-Uni and went to Malaysia for 6 months before law school. It put my law training 'back' a year but was the best thing I ever did. Now I'm in my 30th year, no-one cares if you took an extra year to achieve your career goals - colleagues don't know or care exactly how old you are. Stay positive, you're doing great, and it's nice to see a fellow West Midlander represented!
I haven’t watched your videos in a while but honestly clicking on this, despite you probably not feeling like it, you look amazing! The hair colour, the shine, your skin everything! Completely off topic but hope you feel better too soon!
really lovely to see you open up about this, feels like i'm talking to a friend. i hope you are feeling a bit better & glad you've got an amazing support system around you x
honestly, i feel this so much. like many students, i am trying to complete dissertation research whilst feeling really lonley and down, it's ridiculously hard and feel like the people who finish university this year and the year after are going to be a lost generation in terms of degree results etc. the anxiety is extremely stressful
Eve😢 Thank you so so much for sharing this and keeping things real with us all! I’m hoping all goes okay with the ultrasound in the future. Please don’t read the horrid comments - they’re honestly all just so jealous I swear. You’re SUCH an inspiration - keep pushing and doing what you’re doing ❤️
Thank you so much for this video Eve. You're so honest and down to earth, you shouldn't need to apologise for your emotions, your realness is so admirable. One piece of advice for judgement/hate that has me helped is this: If someone is being judgemental and cruel towards you, you can't really take their opinion to heart as they haven't been there throughout your whole life. You can't really take it to heart because they have seen about 1% of your life so why would you be hurt about someone judging 1% of your life! Idk if that makes sense haha but you're doing amazing xx
You're so honest with your audience about the way that you're feeling which is so lovely. You deserve to feel the emotions that you're feeling. It's okay to feel happy or sad or worried, especially during this pandemic. You are GLOWING in this video and I'm so glad you're back from your break but don't forget, you're allowed to take a break whenever necessary. You're only human!!!! X
I’m so sorry for the lack of understanding your university is showing rn, so many unis are doing this and it makes me absolutely sick the way they’re not technically in the wrong because they’re not FORCING you to go anywhere but then put such academic pressure on you to go certain places that you’re stuck deciding between putting your own and everybody else’s health on the line or falling behind academically. of course we could have it much worse but that is such a difficult situation to be in and takes such a toll on your mental health, so stay safe and do whatever helps you get through this!! 💓
I would love to hear you talk about health and fitness! I esp love seeing what I eat in a day's / workout routines from non fitness gurus because it's alot more relatable (compared to fitness gurus shoving kale and crossfit down our throats)
On the academic pressure thing, I completely get you. I study textiles and specialise in weave but obviously we don’t have access to the looms right now, so all of our teaching has been transferred to an online software... that only works on windows pcs, so 60% of us on laptops/macs just can’t use it. And the response we’ve had from uni is “well the library is open” and when we were like “but we aren’t about to all travel in from all over the country just to access this software” they basically just shrugged and said it wasn’t there problem and they had done their job as a university to “provide all the resources required” Uni’s just don’t care at this point and no one can change my mind on that
I feel the exact same way about what to do after uni. Im in my last year, had no gap year and always had my heart set on doing a masters straight after but I've decided there is no way im doing more education online so going to take at least 6 months out of education and just work and hopefully get a foot in the industry I want. Glad I'm not the only one!
in the past few months i’ve literally experienced all those symptoms you’ve spoke about and i knew something was wrong but i wasn’t even aware of what it could be so i thought i was just being emotional. i’m now gonna speak to my gp and see what they say. thank you for being so open and honest about this stuff eve and i hope you start to feel better soon
I hate when people on the internet project their own insecurities onto others and make them feel bad. I want to give my little opinion here: I have been watching Eve because she is so honest and I got a perspective on uni life in the UK, as I kind of always wanted to be there when I was younger. It's been fun. I'm German, way past my student years and have been working full time quite normally throughout the pandemic, so I do see how lucky I am. I feel bad for every student of any age right now. Since those years are quite formative and should also be the most fun time of your life! No one can really imagine the negative effects this whole lockdown thing will have on the mental health and well-being of those young people who probably missed out on so many opportunities during this time. They will not get it back. So yes, you are allowed to feel sad and frustrated.
Hey Eve, I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 16 and now I'm 20. It's tough, not gonna lie, I haven't ever really tried to control the symptoms but I've made it a thing to start living a much healthier lifestyle from September this year (as this can reverse the effects and is probably the main way to try and treat it). I'm glad I watched this video, thank you for being so open, a good reminder that everyone is human and is suffering with their own problems, no matter how big or small they seem. You're the best, much love.
Bethany the best thing to do is to live a healthy lifestyle, as losing just 5% of your body weight can be so beneficial in terms of controlling your symptoms. most women with PCOS are overweight but even if you’re not, It’s still advised to eat healthily and exercise regularly. This is because PCOS is associated with being really insulin resistant, making us more prone to diseases like type 2 diabetes :( so avoiding certain foods like refined carbohydrates is recommended
@@Aurora-wb2wc thank you! I have an underactive thyroid and so they want to check for PCOS cos they can be related so not sure if I will have it but if I do then that’s really helpful thank you xx
2:00 yh I know what you mean. Since 2021 started I've been feeling sort of odd and unlike myself with fluctuating emotions and it's been weird honestly
Oh my goodness Eve we had the same problems! I still have hair too from PCOS and got laser hair removal. Nice to know that it wasn't such an abnormal thing!!
You're definitely not alone, I was diagnosed with endometriosis 2 years ago and all your symptoms are the same as what I went through. It is incredibly painful especially when the doctors or society as whole suggests your pain and emotions are not valid. Glad you're seeking support it can be life changing. I went on to desogestrel and I haven't nearly as many issues, hope this helps!x
This video hit me in the feels. 💛 I'm not good at words but just thank you for opening up, for being real, for being you. Also, I just want to give you a big hug. *internet hug*
Just finished watching the video and I really appreciated you sharing your life like this. I felt like I was hearing a friend talk about their life and I think these kinds of videos just help people feel less alone in this situation so thank you!
You have all my compassion, I have been dealing with chronic pain for more than 2 years now and I just found out today I have to get gyno surgery in 2 months just in case they can find something and I am terrified, so scared! To anyone facing health issues and uncertainties, lots of love and courage, we will get through it xxxxx
Eve is really the only one of the studytubers I still feel is relatable and real, I'm not gonna bring others in this genre down or name names but I haven't been able to relate to many of the others on the same level as Eve during this pandemic and have unfollowed a few. Thank you for just being real and being you, it's nice as a student struggling with third year to see someone else having a breakdown too hahaha.
please eve, stay strong. We love you no matter what struggles you're going through. Your struggles are YOURS, no matter how big or small they are. we're here for you
I think the pandemic has accelerated our normal growing/changing process. We are not the same people we were before all this. And in a prolonged lockdown it’s easy to lose yourself completely
You are so raw & honest- it’s so so refreshing! I hope there’s a time you remember the reasons you chose your degree& love for languages as your perseverance is incredible ❤️ also Costa Rica is a beautiful country to visit would highly recommend!!
I was diagnosed with pcos at the end of my first year after being a complete mess for months, I’m not a crier but I would be crying on the daily.. luckily I didn’t suffer from weight gain/ hair growth but my bloods came back with excess androgens. I was put on rigevidon and thankfully I haven’t suffered any side effects, if anything my flatmates said I seemed so much happier! Just shows how it works for different people. Wish you all the best Eve! Hopefully you find a pill that works and start to feel better✨xx
I went to your school for the first term of Sixth Form Eve, we had brief discussions about Chaucer n House Arts. You were always so positive, I'm sorry to hear you are going through this. I have an offer at Oxford for October but videos like this really make me reconsider whether the environment is as healthy as people would like to make out.
Hey gal! No honestly it’s just the languages faculty - the whole experience with my college and with individual tutors has been amaze, they can just lack flexibility sometimes but I wouldn’t change my experience in the first 2 years!
Eve you are totally justified to feel sad about the whole situation and the missed opportunities you've had! You are sacrificing so much and it's really hard. But it's the right thing to do - though you might not feel proud yet for acting to stop the spread of the virus because it feels so shit to have to do it, in the future you'll look back and know you did the right thing by staying at home. You're saving lives - you're going through hell to do it, but you're making a difference. Big love to you Eve ❤️
Excellent decision. Well done! A year when you are young seems incredibly long but when you look back, believe me, it's just a quick blip that is of no consequence career-wise, especially if you time it well. You should definitely take a good long break and allow yourself to find your own rhythm again. You deserve this.
I know what you mean, not feeling like the normal version of yourself. Exams are feeling quite stressful right now, so I can only imagine how uni students are feeling. Just taking each day at a time is all we can do at the moment. Hopefully things will start to look up soon 😊
that middle clip was so needed and I really hope that people realise that what you’re doing is amazing and you’re providing comfort and entertainment for thousands of people ❤️ love the video again xx
Haven’t watched the full video but just wanted to say I’m genuinely really proud that you caught yourself at 3:35 before you did a disclaimer and stopped yourself, we love that growth!
I really really relate to what you said about feeling like a different person. I've felt like this lately and it can be quite an unnerving feeling. It's so comforting to know you've been feeling the same because I have been really struggling with it. I too was looking at old Instagram pictures and I've noticed how much I've changed and it has made me feel so strange for a few days. Thank you for your honesty x
The whole identity feeling is such a weird and hard one to even explain but i know exactly what it is you’re talking about. For me, ive coped by having faith that ill grow into myself eventually without feeling off or weird about it because the feeling does eventually fizzle out (if that makes any sense lol)
i took a gap year after my undergrad (even doing a year abroad within my undergrad) and now doing my masters - it was so mentally refreshing to do that gap year abroad and earn some money at the same time; my advice is do it!
Videos like this are what is needed right now so... Realistic struggles that everyone has! Preach that all feelings are valid. Thank you for this video- particularly as a student myself who lost the end of her last year, graduation and is missing out on her Master degree in a dance studio with no reassurance that there is a support policy. You Got This!!!
I'm so glad that you have chosen to talk about this, it's so good to see someone being honest and authentic! Also I am glad that you have opened up about personal issues/topics because no one is alone in this. It should be talked about more so that people are more aware of those issues x
i feel exactly the same! i’ve had countless blood tests thinking it’s either pcos or something to do with my thyroid and all all the results come back normal:(
Eve, haven't watched your videos in a while but this popped up and wanted to see how you are. I'm really sorry you're going through such a tough patch, and your feelings are valid. Just want to say thank you for inspiring me, since my year abroad a few years ago I have barely spoken my languages because I get anxious I speak them badly, but then they get worse as I don't practice. So I've booked a trial with a tutor to speak Spanish for an hour at the weekend and I'm terrified but determined to improve! Thank you xx
Personally I prefer dedicated videos or Tiktok's dedicated to talking about food, exercise or body image etc so that I can avoid them all together rather than it being featured half way through a video unexpectedly and having to skip forwards but thats just what works for me
you're so so nice Eve, taking so many people's feelings into consideration. you're entitled to feel what you feel, don't let anyone ever make you feel otherwise x
As someone who dislikes a lot of RUclipsrs for being arrogant and just generally annoying, I can safely say that you are not one of those people Eve! If there was something wrong I’m sure your subscribers would politely call you out in the comments instead of writing on hateful forms, so stop looking at the hate websites because what they are defo just bored people who thrive on putting other people down to make themselves feel better!
I don't usually comment on videos, but really sympathised so much with everything you said. As a university student the same age as you, I too am struggling in the same ways. It's okay for us to be fed up, it's okay to miss how life was before and to feel angry with the way the world is. University students have been unfairly left out of government talks, we've had little guidance on what we're supposed to be doing, and most importantly, online learning is acknowledged as being difficult for school students, but not for university students, who should get on with it. It makes me so fed up that university students have been left in the dark with online learning yet are still having to sit exams and produce high standards of work, whilst school students are having their exams cancelled because "the quality of teaching is not the same". And it's okay to be feeling this way right now, Eve, because everyone our age is feeling the same. And these people who contribute to forums saying that you're too 'privileged' to be affected are entirely invalidating any feelings that you are allowed to have. Wishing you all the best x
It's so refreshing to see someone who is also having a very difficult time in this pandemic. It makes you feel less alone and less crazy for how you feel
I totally agree with not feeling like 'myself' anymore, or should I say my self in the past, but I actually much prefer how I feel now. It has just been very strange feeling like I've suddenly changed/ grown a lot recently. I think the way I've coped with it is just trying to always find the positives in my changes, such as being more confident in myself and being mentally stronger from what we've all had to deal with (this is probably something we've all grown a lot!). :)
newsflash, we don't CHOOSE to be sad or feel a certain way about something, emotions are emotions and they are not in our control. Emotions are part of the human condition. You should never apologise for it or feel guilty for simply being a HUMAN.
Hey Eve, I just wanted to share my experience: I also have PCOS, I was diagnosed when I was 18 and I treated it with the pill throughout my teenage years. I really regret that because of all the side effects of the pill (I got really depressed and my sex drive disappeared completely) and because it just surpressed the symptoms - so not a holistic approach. For me changing my lifestyle really helped me with it, I went vegan over three years ago, I workout almost everyday and stopped eating so much sugar. I am 25 now and have my symptoms under control so much better. I wish you the best and I hope you find a way to help with your symptoms!
This ! To anyone watching this, I’ve been working with a specialist and found that controlling PCOS through diet and lifestyle is the best way - birth control largely just masks the symptoms and they all come back once you get off the pill.
@@Theglortube yes they did! My periods are still somewhat irregular but before I got them maybe twice a year, now I get them every 1-2 months which is less worrying!
the fact that you're sat here crying about the things people are saying about you breaks my heart, yes everyone has lost things this year but that doesn't invalidate you, hope you're doing okay stay strong gal xxxx
I feel like its ok to feel pain for things even if people are going through things that are worse as long as you aren't self centred about your pain. as long as you acknowledge the things going on around the world which you do and try and help out which you have its fine. taking care of your mental health is important and if you don't talk about your own pain your mental health will go down.
Thank you for sharing your experience with the road to a PCOS diagnosis. You'll help so many women by doing this. I have also been diagnosed with PCOS and am undergoing further tests for Endometriosis so hearing more people talk about it and raise awareness is amazing. Stay strong Eve x
Sending you so much love, people are so unnecessarily cruel. The toxic mantra of 'other people have it worse' 'you're too privileged to be upset' is so damaging and couldn't be further from the truth. Feelings and emotions are valid, it doesn't matter what context or 'extent'. Struggle is relative. Humans feel things. And people commenting on your body/exercise/nutrition is so out of order it's laughable. So sorry that all this shite has happened to you but life isn't always going to be this way. So nice to hear some positivity at the end tho:)xx
I’m sorry you’ve not been feeling yourself Eve, and I know you already know this but just to reiterate what you said, your emotions are completely valid! I struggle in the same way as your when my mental health isn’t the best, thinking that people have it a lot worse .etc. but I find when I allow myself to feel the way I’m feeling then it helps me feel better a lot quicker! I’m glad you’ve decided to take some time out before your post-grad to allow yourself to enjoy life and it’s great to see you excited about that ☺️ also that you’ve found the radio, it must feel so good to have something so positive to focus on during this lockdown!! Keep being you Eve because you’re doing amazing, and a great role model for your viewers (I’m 25 so a few years older than you, but I’ve been watching you since you were about 14 and it’s been so lovely to see the inspiring young woman you’ve grown into!) xx
youre the sweetest and most humble person ever !! im so sorry people are so horrible, please try not to listen to them, youre super strong even tho oxford is putting you thru hell (i cant believe theyre thAt incompetent??) i hope you feel better now :) xxx
Ah sorry you’re feeling like this ): And yes you’re right, it’s been a really tough year for everyone. I love how raw and honest this video is. I hate how you have to justify yourself. Honestly I understand y you’d be upset about not being able to go abroad. Your feelings matter just as much as everyone else’s does. Hope you’re feeling a bit better. You’re doing so great xx
NO ONE and I mean NO ONE should be invalidating your feelings and emotions! As cliche as this sounds, we are all human! Your emotions are valid, you are valid no matter how much people make it seem like they are less than someone else because their experience seems “worse”! Never disregard the way you feel to make people happy or satisfied of because you feel yours is not “as bad as theirs!” You’re beautiful and strong and you’ll get through this! Will be praying for you sis! 😭😭❤️
This video is so helpful for everyone around that feels the same or is having hard times with dealing with their emotions 🤍 Life is just like it is and let’s make it the best as possible, but sometimes this isnt with positive emotions! My dm’s are also open if someone wants to talk 😌
Absolutely loved seeing you open up in this video because I've been feeling a bit guilty about feeling down in the dumps- my 18th birthday is next week and I haven't seen my friends in so long and life just feels a bit crap at the moment! You are 100% not alone Eve, sending love 💜
Your emotions are normal. They show that you care! You are most definitely allowed to have great moments and bad moments. It's so hurtful when other people try to invalidate your struggles. It shows a total lack of empathy and respect from those people when they say you shouldn't be feeling a certain way because others have it worse. You honestly have such wonderful insight into your own emotions, and your ability to show genuine empathy with other people shows a level of emotional maturity a lot of early 20- somethings don't have. Kudos to you! Re health: I also have PCOS. I said "also" because your symptoms, even your experience with the pill, remind me of my early symptoms which started when I was 18. I've been hospitalized a few times because of it (pain, cyst count increase, cyst rupture, etc.). I also ended up in hospital because the first pill I was on had higher amounts of hormones than my body could handle. I switched to Yaz and it's been so much better. Also, sometimes an ultrasound won't show smaller cysts, or it won't be clear enough for a confirmed diagnosis. If that's the case, see if you can get an MRI scan.
I haven't watched you in some time, and stumbled onto this video and I am sooooo glad that I did. your honestly such a breath of fresh air and I really love how open you are and so real. ❤
I went to the non girl school next door to you but a few years ahead. Honestly love your videos. Emotions happen especially during uni years, keep going you got this girl! Haters got no heart
Eve I'm 10 seconds into the video but your hair looks INCREDIBLE
IKR the colourrrr 😍👏🏽
This "x is so privileged so they're not allowed to be stressed about things and sad about missed opportunities in their life" is such a weird train of thought
That's not how human emotions work
Policing another person's emotions and expression like this is so non-emphatic?
So true
Yep I agree
@@ericaabawe8038 I meant the opposite of empathic...
@@komorebi7995 Apathetic?
@@AB-mb8uy Yeah? We have that word in our language as well but it means to be unresponsive, listless etc. so I didn't think of that 😄
Thank you for being one of the only people online that truly shares what they’re feeling.
Honesty is the best policy! X
Honestly.
I’m sorry your feeling like this Eve, no one should be invalidating your emotions they’re valid its all relative to our own experiences !!
Thank you z

Hey Eve, I'm a language student at Oxford too but was granted dispensation from the year abroad due to health problems in 2020. Just here to say that I think you're absolutely right to feel incredibly angry and distressed by how the university have approached the travel situation. The advice is pretty much: exploit every loophole to get to the target country, possibly incur huge costs on quarantine hotels when you want to return to the UK, and then not even have a valuable experience when you're in the country because there's still so many restrictions in place. I think it's disgraceful and hugely irresponsible - no duty of care whatsoever on their part and no consideration of the financial implications for students. Never feel guilty about feeling shit: everyone is as entitled to sadness as they are to happiness. Sending you lots of love and I hope your health issues are resolved soon!
It’s honestly so infuriating and upsetting, thank you for making me feel like I’m not alone and I hope all is well with you z
I hate the notion that you can’t be sad because someone is sadder because it’s like saying you can’t be happy because someone is happier. I am really struggling right now with online uni we have barely any teaching, all lectures are pre recorded and they have removed our no detriment that we had last year because this lockdown ‘wasn’t unexpected’??? We also were told that they have adapted assignments to suit the new teaching style but we still had to do group presentations online we love to see it. The only time uni students are thought about is when people are blaming them when so many of us are just stuck in our bedrooms doing uni with no support and paying 9k for the privilege. But I still know that I am lucky to be able to be doing a degree so I feel like I shouldn’t be feeling this way. Apologies for the rant!
Also I have endometriosis and I was put on rigevidon when I was in sixth form to help manage it but it made my mood awful I actually could not cope but it was hard because it helped with my endo symptoms so I didn’t want to come off it but I went back to the doctors about it and they put me on microgynon and it works so much better for me!❤️
I’m so glad you found a pill that works for you but don’t feel bad about ranting! Xx
First two sentence - very true 👍
@@RevisionWithEve the pill has worked for me too, with managing endometriosis symptoms x
Okay can we just establish the fact that Eve is GLOWING in this video!
“This whole thing has beaten the love for my degree out of me” I am SO glad to hear that someone else feels this way! I have completely fallen out of love with my degree, with learning, with education in general! I was determined and so motivated and on the road to achieve a First this time last year and now I genuinely don’t see myself finishing this year at all. It’s so SO hard being any type of student during this, it’s absolutely heartbreaking!
Please Eve ignore the people on those forums. One day I stumbled across it and oh my gosh all I saw was hateful, bitter middle age women that did not have anything else to do. I honestly felt sorry for them! Uour thriving, you will have a great future so please don't take any notice to those people.
@Nicky L Completely agree. By the way I mean no disrespect to nice middle age women!
It breaks my heart to hear of people being so relentlessly horrible to you. It’s honestly much more reflective of their insecurities and the negative things happening in their lives for them to take the time to be so cruel towards you. You’re doing your absolute best, and I can honestly relate to hormones and lockdown in general beating the life and happiness out of you! You’ve inspired me so much and do not deserve any of these comments. I find it scary how people have the ability to behave with such little empathy. Nobody has the right to tell you how to live! Thank you for being so open and letting us know we’re not alone xx
Ikr like people don’t have any right to judge how others are feeling - everyone is pretty much struggling and the only way to get through it is together. Especially considering Eve is so nice and real too
Eve honestly is saying what everyone is thinking ❤️ so authentic and real, I really appreciate it!
Thank you xx
With you being so open with your struggles in a weird way feels really refreshing! Being able to sit here and relate to your struggles is really comforting
I love the videos in which you're talking about your mental state during the pandemic because it always gives me the feeling that it's okay to articulate that I'm unhappy at the moment although of course I am so privileged and others have it way harder than me.
Exactly x
As someone that is going to be applying to university soon I like hearing about how different unis have treated their student during the pandemic, it's helped me rule out certain unis completely.
Good for you! Unis really need to get their priorities straight
Completely agree! I have a video on my channel about how Manchester uni has dealt with the pandemic if you’d find that useful :) xx
I am SO sorry that uni has been so harsh to you and all the other language students. I can totally understand how stressed you are and you shouldn't have to apologise for expressing that. Sending you so much love, just keep taking things one day at a time gal xxx
Thank you xxx
I really appreciate you opening up, sending you love. My family are very toxic in terms of positivity, it has made me feel better hearing you acknowledge that it is hard for everyone right now.
Im so happy that yputubers are being honest about their EDS, it helps people like me (in recovery) feel better about what ive gone through
You’re so thoughtful of others despite your own suffering. You’re not self-centred or selfish at all. Bless you.
Idk if this is normal during a pandemic but I've literally also been having a huge identity crisis since the autumn 😭 unrelated but also your hair in this video and in the past few videos is just goals 😍
same! ive been having such an intense prolonged identity wobble, probably since around august but we've got this! trusting we'll all work things out in the end
It’s so comforting seeing that it’s not just me!! I’ve been feeling so disillusioned with myself, as though someone could ask me a question about what I like/my hobbies or something and I’d just draw a blank?? Like I just don’t know myself anymore?? It must be to do with the pandemic if there is a lot of us struggling. Not long now I’m sure and we’ll all be free and begin to rebuild ourselves 💕
Same!! It’s because we have so much time to ourselves that we start to notice things we didn’t realise (often false things that only we think) which means loads of people are having self esteem issues. Mixed with the fact I started sixth form in September but during COVID obviously so I feel like I’m not really there yet
The amount of disclaimers in this video! Your feelings are completely valid, and as a viewer I can completely see how delicately you are discussing the pandemic. Hope you are feeling better soon, being a woman sucks. Melanie Murphys sister (I think she is called Jessica Brennan?) has PCOS so if you wanted to check out her videos!
Hahahaha I need to stop doing disclaimers but there are always people that take it the wrong way x
@@RevisionWithEve I get it!! Anyone who’s hating clearly hasn’t watched any of your videos.
Eve - you're health issues really resonated with me. I went through similar issues myself around 2 years (not pcos, but a pituitary gland issue). It took over a year to receive a diagnosis. Before I was diagnosed, I had soooo much heath anxiety, not knowing what's wrong with me. I hope you find out soon whether it is pcos or not. And remember so many people are going through the same thing and you are not alone xxx 💞
you're such a legend, going through so much crap and still telling everyone that its okay to feel shit and their problems are valid - keep pushing through you're doing a great job! It'll be better soon
When all this started we were given a non detriment policy. Now in 3rd year in this new lockdown we haven’t been given another and our uni is saying it’s not a new experience anymore and we basically should be used to working in a pandemic now. Couple that with the fact that we are primary education students and can’t have our final placement in schools at the moment while trying to write a dissertation and apply for jobs! I know how you feel about your uni. It feels like they don’t have a human approach to this and consider the effects on us.
That’s ridiculous, sorry that’s happening to you
My uni is the same, the only “safety net” they’ve kept is allowing us to apply for a 10 day EC without needing to provide any evidence. It’s ridiculous and so stressful! It makes me so sad how dehumanising universities have been this year. It makes me so angry!
Shocked at how Oxford is handling the situation. Rest assured you've made the right choice, there's nothing to feel guilty about! Hope you feel better, both physically and mentally
I graduated Ox in 2013 (so I'm basically elderly for this channel!) but just wanted to say I really feel for everything students are currently going through. Having been through Ox finals relatively recently, I do think they will mark fairly, they just need to get better at communicating this and realising that students are under a lot of pressure and need reassurance sometimes. Please stop reading your hate forums, I can't believe they exist (what a sad little life, Jane...) , you have nothing to feel bad about. I took a year out post-Uni and went to Malaysia for 6 months before law school. It put my law training 'back' a year but was the best thing I ever did. Now I'm in my 30th year, no-one cares if you took an extra year to achieve your career goals - colleagues don't know or care exactly how old you are. Stay positive, you're doing great, and it's nice to see a fellow West Midlander represented!
I haven’t watched your videos in a while but honestly clicking on this, despite you probably not feeling like it, you look amazing! The hair colour, the shine, your skin everything! Completely off topic but hope you feel better too soon!
really lovely to see you open up about this, feels like i'm talking to a friend. i hope you are feeling a bit better & glad you've got an amazing support system around you x
honestly, i feel this so much. like many students, i am trying to complete dissertation research whilst feeling really lonley and down, it's ridiculously hard and feel like the people who finish university this year and the year after are going to be a lost generation in terms of degree results etc. the anxiety is extremely stressful
Eve😢 Thank you so so much for sharing this and keeping things real with us all! I’m hoping all goes okay with the ultrasound in the future. Please don’t read the horrid comments - they’re honestly all just so jealous I swear. You’re SUCH an inspiration - keep pushing and doing what you’re doing ❤️
Thank you xx
Thank you so much for this video Eve. You're so honest and down to earth, you shouldn't need to apologise for your emotions, your realness is so admirable. One piece of advice for judgement/hate that has me helped is this: If someone is being judgemental and cruel towards you, you can't really take their opinion to heart as they haven't been there throughout your whole life. You can't really take it to heart because they have seen about 1% of your life so why would you be hurt about someone judging 1% of your life! Idk if that makes sense haha but you're doing amazing xx
You're so honest with your audience about the way that you're feeling which is so lovely. You deserve to feel the emotions that you're feeling. It's okay to feel happy or sad or worried, especially during this pandemic. You are GLOWING in this video and I'm so glad you're back from your break but don't forget, you're allowed to take a break whenever necessary. You're only human!!!! X
I’m so sorry for the lack of understanding your university is showing rn, so many unis are doing this and it makes me absolutely sick the way they’re not technically in the wrong because they’re not FORCING you to go anywhere but then put such academic pressure on you to go certain places that you’re stuck deciding between putting your own and everybody else’s health on the line or falling behind academically. of course we could have it much worse but that is such a difficult situation to be in and takes such a toll on your mental health, so stay safe and do whatever helps you get through this!! 💓
I would love to hear you talk about health and fitness! I esp love seeing what I eat in a day's / workout routines from non fitness gurus because it's alot more relatable (compared to fitness gurus shoving kale and crossfit down our throats)
Ahhh ok! Xx
On the academic pressure thing, I completely get you. I study textiles and specialise in weave but obviously we don’t have access to the looms right now, so all of our teaching has been transferred to an online software... that only works on windows pcs, so 60% of us on laptops/macs just can’t use it. And the response we’ve had from uni is “well the library is open” and when we were like “but we aren’t about to all travel in from all over the country just to access this software” they basically just shrugged and said it wasn’t there problem and they had done their job as a university to “provide all the resources required” Uni’s just don’t care at this point and no one can change my mind on that
I feel the exact same way about what to do after uni. Im in my last year, had no gap year and always had my heart set on doing a masters straight after but I've decided there is no way im doing more education online so going to take at least 6 months out of education and just work and hopefully get a foot in the industry I want. Glad I'm not the only one!
Best of luck to you x
@@RevisionWithEve Thank you! You too!
in the past few months i’ve literally experienced all those symptoms you’ve spoke about and i knew something was wrong but i wasn’t even aware of what it could be so i thought i was just being emotional. i’m now gonna speak to my gp and see what they say. thank you for being so open and honest about this stuff eve and i hope you start to feel better soon
Eve, I really appreciate how open you are about everything
Thank you x
Eve you are GLOWING 😍 absolutely love your hair ahhh!
Thank you love hope you’re good x
I love the honesty in these videos, makes you realise us students aren’t alone x
Your feelings are so valid Eve. Sending you a huge hug 🥺❤
I hate when people on the internet project their own insecurities onto others and make them feel bad. I want to give my little opinion here: I have been watching Eve because she is so honest and I got a perspective on uni life in the UK, as I kind of always wanted to be there when I was younger. It's been fun. I'm German, way past my student years and have been working full time quite normally throughout the pandemic, so I do see how lucky I am. I feel bad for every student of any age right now. Since those years are quite formative and should also be the most fun time of your life! No one can really imagine the negative effects this whole lockdown thing will have on the mental health and well-being of those young people who probably missed out on so many opportunities during this time. They will not get it back. So yes, you are allowed to feel sad and frustrated.
Thanks so much and hope you’re holding up!
@@RevisionWithEve Thanks, all the best to you, Eve!
Eve, please never feel guilty. Your down-to-heart attitude and adaptability will get you far. Your make-up and hair was on point!
Hey Eve, I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 16 and now I'm 20. It's tough, not gonna lie, I haven't ever really tried to control the symptoms but I've made it a thing to start living a much healthier lifestyle from September this year (as this can reverse the effects and is probably the main way to try and treat it). I'm glad I watched this video, thank you for being so open, a good reminder that everyone is human and is suffering with their own problems, no matter how big or small they seem. You're the best, much love.
I might have PCOS I am having tests do you have any advice?
Bethany the best thing to do is to live a healthy lifestyle, as losing just 5% of your body weight can be so beneficial in terms of controlling your symptoms. most women with PCOS are overweight but even if you’re not, It’s still advised to eat healthily and exercise regularly. This is because PCOS is associated with being really insulin resistant, making us more prone to diseases like type 2 diabetes :( so avoiding certain foods like refined carbohydrates is recommended
@@Aurora-wb2wc thank you! I have an underactive thyroid and so they want to check for PCOS cos they can be related so not sure if I will have it but if I do then that’s really helpful thank you xx
Bethany no worries, hope everything goes well with you & that you’re fine! :) xx
@@Aurora-wb2wc thank you!!! :)
you look so pretty eve this hair colour suits you so much
2:00 yh I know what you mean. Since 2021 started I've been feeling sort of odd and unlike myself with fluctuating emotions and it's been weird honestly
It’s so bizarre! X
Oh my goodness Eve we had the same problems! I still have hair too from PCOS and got laser hair removal. Nice to know that it wasn't such an abnormal thing!!
I'm considering laser hair removal for it, I'm scared of how much it would cost though 😬
You're definitely not alone, I was diagnosed with endometriosis 2 years ago and all your symptoms are the same as what I went through. It is incredibly painful especially when the doctors or society as whole suggests your pain and emotions are not valid. Glad you're seeking support it can be life changing. I went on to desogestrel and I haven't nearly as many issues, hope this helps!x
This video hit me in the feels. 💛 I'm not good at words but just thank you for opening up, for being real, for being you. Also, I just want to give you a big hug. *internet hug*
Just finished watching the video and I really appreciated you sharing your life like this. I felt like I was hearing a friend talk about their life and I think these kinds of videos just help people feel less alone in this situation so thank you!
You have all my compassion, I have been dealing with chronic pain for more than 2 years now and I just found out today I have to get gyno surgery in 2 months just in case they can find something and I am terrified, so scared! To anyone facing health issues and uncertainties, lots of love and courage, we will get through it xxxxx
Eve is really the only one of the studytubers I still feel is relatable and real, I'm not gonna bring others in this genre down or name names but I haven't been able to relate to many of the others on the same level as Eve during this pandemic and have unfollowed a few. Thank you for just being real and being you, it's nice as a student struggling with third year to see someone else having a breakdown too hahaha.
please eve, stay strong. We love you no matter what struggles you're going through. Your struggles are YOURS, no matter how big or small they are. we're here for you
That's ridiculous that oxford were encouraging you to get around restrictions by going to spain through france
I think the pandemic has accelerated our normal growing/changing process. We are not the same people we were before all this. And in a prolonged lockdown it’s easy to lose yourself completely
You are so raw & honest- it’s so so refreshing! I hope there’s a time you remember the reasons you chose your degree& love for languages as your perseverance is incredible ❤️ also Costa Rica is a beautiful country to visit would highly recommend!!
Actually, the video quality on this one is amazing
I was diagnosed with pcos at the end of my first year after being a complete mess for months, I’m not a crier but I would be crying on the daily.. luckily I didn’t suffer from weight gain/ hair growth but my bloods came back with excess androgens. I was put on rigevidon and thankfully I haven’t suffered any side effects, if anything my flatmates said I seemed so much happier! Just shows how it works for different people. Wish you all the best Eve! Hopefully you find a pill that works and start to feel better✨xx
It’s crazy how one pill can cause so many different reactions - thank you x
I went to your school for the first term of Sixth Form Eve, we had brief discussions about Chaucer n House Arts. You were always so positive, I'm sorry to hear you are going through this. I have an offer at Oxford for October but videos like this really make me reconsider whether the environment is as healthy as people would like to make out.
Hey gal! No honestly it’s just the languages faculty - the whole experience with my college and with individual tutors has been amaze, they can just lack flexibility sometimes but I wouldn’t change my experience in the first 2 years!
@@RevisionWithEve Look after yourself mate, thinking of you x
Eve you are totally justified to feel sad about the whole situation and the missed opportunities you've had! You are sacrificing so much and it's really hard. But it's the right thing to do - though you might not feel proud yet for acting to stop the spread of the virus because it feels so shit to have to do it, in the future you'll look back and know you did the right thing by staying at home. You're saving lives - you're going through hell to do it, but you're making a difference. Big love to you Eve ❤️
omg i LOVE your darker hair eve!!
Excellent decision. Well done! A year when you are young seems incredibly long but when you look back, believe me, it's just a quick blip that is of no consequence career-wise, especially if you time it well. You should definitely take a good long break and allow yourself to find your own rhythm again. You deserve this.
I love listening to these while I do the Saturday morning tidy up ahha xxxx
Hope it went well! X
I know what you mean, not feeling like the normal version of yourself. Exams are feeling quite stressful right now, so I can only imagine how uni students are feeling. Just taking each day at a time is all we can do at the moment. Hopefully things will start to look up soon 😊
that middle clip was so needed and I really hope that people realise that what you’re doing is amazing and you’re providing comfort and entertainment for thousands of people ❤️ love the video again xx
Haven’t watched the full video but just wanted to say I’m genuinely really proud that you caught yourself at 3:35 before you did a disclaimer and stopped yourself, we love that growth!
I really really relate to what you said about feeling like a different person. I've felt like this lately and it can be quite an unnerving feeling. It's so comforting to know you've been feeling the same because I have been really struggling with it. I too was looking at old Instagram pictures and I've noticed how much I've changed and it has made me feel so strange for a few days. Thank you for your honesty x
The whole identity feeling is such a weird and hard one to even explain but i know exactly what it is you’re talking about. For me, ive coped by having faith that ill grow into myself eventually without feeling off or weird about it because the feeling does eventually fizzle out (if that makes any sense lol)
i took a gap year after my undergrad (even doing a year abroad within my undergrad) and now doing my masters - it was so mentally refreshing to do that gap year abroad and earn some money at the same time; my advice is do it!
Videos like this are what is needed right now so... Realistic struggles that everyone has! Preach that all feelings are valid. Thank you for this video- particularly as a student myself who lost the end of her last year, graduation and is missing out on her Master degree in a dance studio with no reassurance that there is a support policy. You Got This!!!
I'm so glad that you have chosen to talk about this, it's so good to see someone being honest and authentic!
Also I am glad that you have opened up about personal issues/topics because no one is alone in this. It should be talked about more so that people are more aware of those issues x
I’m newly diagnosed with pcos and I’m 17. It’s crazy how things can change
Crazy indeed!
hey these are some youtubers also with PCOS: madison sarah, flossie and the model romee strijd 🤍
@@lakedistrictlibrary9391 Yeah it's actually really common
Just as I'm bored looking for something to watch - then Eve uploads!❤
i feel exactly the same! i’ve had countless blood tests thinking it’s either pcos or something to do with my thyroid and all all the results come back normal:(
Hope you find what it is :(
@@RevisionWithEve thankyou 🤍
Eve, haven't watched your videos in a while but this popped up and wanted to see how you are. I'm really sorry you're going through such a tough patch, and your feelings are valid. Just want to say thank you for inspiring me, since my year abroad a few years ago I have barely spoken my languages because I get anxious I speak them badly, but then they get worse as I don't practice. So I've booked a trial with a tutor to speak Spanish for an hour at the weekend and I'm terrified but determined to improve! Thank you xx
Sorry, but the hair! The blue hoodie! The makeup! Absolutely stunning, please stop 😍😍😍
Personally I prefer dedicated videos or Tiktok's dedicated to talking about food, exercise or body image etc so that I can avoid them all together rather than it being featured half way through a video unexpectedly and having to skip forwards but thats just what works for me
I found this so helpful - im also a language student and haven't felt able to grieve what i've lost out on so thank you Eve
you're so so nice Eve, taking so many people's feelings into consideration. you're entitled to feel what you feel, don't let anyone ever make you feel otherwise x
As someone who dislikes a lot of RUclipsrs for being arrogant and just generally annoying, I can safely say that you are not one of those people Eve! If there was something wrong I’m sure your subscribers would politely call you out in the comments instead of writing on hateful forms, so stop looking at the hate websites because what they are defo just bored people who thrive on putting other people down to make themselves feel better!
I don't usually comment on videos, but really sympathised so much with everything you said. As a university student the same age as you, I too am struggling in the same ways. It's okay for us to be fed up, it's okay to miss how life was before and to feel angry with the way the world is. University students have been unfairly left out of government talks, we've had little guidance on what we're supposed to be doing, and most importantly, online learning is acknowledged as being difficult for school students, but not for university students, who should get on with it. It makes me so fed up that university students have been left in the dark with online learning yet are still having to sit exams and produce high standards of work, whilst school students are having their exams cancelled because "the quality of teaching is not the same". And it's okay to be feeling this way right now, Eve, because everyone our age is feeling the same. And these people who contribute to forums saying that you're too 'privileged' to be affected are entirely invalidating any feelings that you are allowed to have. Wishing you all the best x
It's so refreshing to see someone who is also having a very difficult time in this pandemic. It makes you feel less alone and less crazy for how you feel
Please never stop being you Eve! You’re fantastic and have inspired me so much! Cant wait to see all of the great things ahead for you :) X
I totally agree with not feeling like 'myself' anymore, or should I say my self in the past, but I actually much prefer how I feel now. It has just been very strange feeling like I've suddenly changed/ grown a lot recently.
I think the way I've coped with it is just trying to always find the positives in my changes, such as being more confident in myself and being mentally stronger from what we've all had to deal with (this is probably something we've all grown a lot!). :)
newsflash, we don't CHOOSE to be sad or feel a certain way about something, emotions are emotions and they are not in our control. Emotions are part of the human condition. You should never apologise for it or feel guilty for simply being a HUMAN.
Hey Eve, I just wanted to share my experience: I also have PCOS, I was diagnosed when I was 18 and I treated it with the pill throughout my teenage years. I really regret that because of all the side effects of the pill (I got really depressed and my sex drive disappeared completely) and because it just surpressed the symptoms - so not a holistic approach. For me changing my lifestyle really helped me with it, I went vegan over three years ago, I workout almost everyday and stopped eating so much sugar. I am 25 now and have my symptoms under control so much better. I wish you the best and I hope you find a way to help with your symptoms!
This ! To anyone watching this, I’ve been working with a specialist and found that controlling PCOS through diet and lifestyle is the best way - birth control largely just masks the symptoms and they all come back once you get off the pill.
Did your lifestyle changes regulate your periods at least a bit? X
@@Theglortube yes they did! My periods are still somewhat irregular but before I got them maybe twice a year, now I get them every 1-2 months which is less worrying!
the fact that you're sat here crying about the things people are saying about you breaks my heart, yes everyone has lost things this year but that doesn't invalidate you, hope you're doing okay stay strong gal xxxx
I feel like its ok to feel pain for things even if people are going through things that are worse as long as you aren't self centred about your pain. as long as you acknowledge the things going on around the world which you do and try and help out which you have its fine. taking care of your mental health is important and if you don't talk about your own pain your mental health will go down.
Thank you for sharing your experience with the road to a PCOS diagnosis. You'll help so many women by doing this. I have also been diagnosed with PCOS and am undergoing further tests for Endometriosis so hearing more people talk about it and raise awareness is amazing. Stay strong Eve x
Sending you so much love, people are so unnecessarily cruel. The toxic mantra of 'other people have it worse' 'you're too privileged to be upset' is so damaging and couldn't be further from the truth. Feelings and emotions are valid, it doesn't matter what context or 'extent'. Struggle is relative. Humans feel things. And people commenting on your body/exercise/nutrition is so out of order it's laughable. So sorry that all this shite has happened to you but life isn't always going to be this way. So nice to hear some positivity at the end tho:)xx
I’m sorry you’ve not been feeling yourself Eve, and I know you already know this but just to reiterate what you said, your emotions are completely valid! I struggle in the same way as your when my mental health isn’t the best, thinking that people have it a lot worse .etc. but I find when I allow myself to feel the way I’m feeling then it helps me feel better a lot quicker! I’m glad you’ve decided to take some time out before your post-grad to allow yourself to enjoy life and it’s great to see you excited about that ☺️ also that you’ve found the radio, it must feel so good to have something so positive to focus on during this lockdown!! Keep being you Eve because you’re doing amazing, and a great role model for your viewers (I’m 25 so a few years older than you, but I’ve been watching you since you were about 14 and it’s been so lovely to see the inspiring young woman you’ve grown into!) xx
youre the sweetest and most humble person ever !! im so sorry people are so horrible, please try not to listen to them, youre super strong even tho oxford is putting you thru hell (i cant believe theyre thAt incompetent??) i hope you feel better now :) xxx
Ah sorry you’re feeling like this ): And yes you’re right, it’s been a really tough year for everyone. I love how raw and honest this video is. I hate how you have to justify yourself. Honestly I understand y you’d be upset about not being able to go abroad. Your feelings matter just as much as everyone else’s does. Hope you’re feeling a bit better. You’re doing so great xx
Thank you for this video.
I’ve noticed the best universities/ the Russel group have treated their students the WORST during this pandemic.
NO ONE and I mean NO ONE should be invalidating your feelings and emotions! As cliche as this sounds, we are all human! Your emotions are valid, you are valid no matter how much people make it seem like they are less than someone else because their experience seems “worse”! Never disregard the way you feel to make people happy or satisfied of because you feel yours is not “as bad as theirs!” You’re beautiful and strong and you’ll get through this! Will be praying for you sis! 😭😭❤️
This video is so helpful for everyone around that feels the same or is having hard times with dealing with their emotions 🤍 Life is just like it is and let’s make it the best as possible, but sometimes this isnt with positive emotions! My dm’s are also open if someone wants to talk 😌
Absolutely loved seeing you open up in this video because I've been feeling a bit guilty about feeling down in the dumps- my 18th birthday is next week and I haven't seen my friends in so long and life just feels a bit crap at the moment! You are 100% not alone Eve, sending love 💜
Sending love right back at you xxx
Your emotions are normal. They show that you care! You are most definitely allowed to have great moments and bad moments. It's so hurtful when other people try to invalidate your struggles. It shows a total lack of empathy and respect from those people when they say you shouldn't be feeling a certain way because others have it worse. You honestly have such wonderful insight into your own emotions, and your ability to show genuine empathy with other people shows a level of emotional maturity a lot of early 20- somethings don't have. Kudos to you!
Re health: I also have PCOS. I said "also" because your symptoms, even your experience with the pill, remind me of my early symptoms which started when I was 18. I've been hospitalized a few times because of it (pain, cyst count increase, cyst rupture, etc.). I also ended up in hospital because the first pill I was on had higher amounts of hormones than my body could handle. I switched to Yaz and it's been so much better. Also, sometimes an ultrasound won't show smaller cysts, or it won't be clear enough for a confirmed diagnosis. If that's the case, see if you can get an MRI scan.
I haven't watched you in some time, and stumbled onto this video and I am sooooo glad that I did. your honestly such a breath of fresh air and I really love how open you are and so real. ❤
I went to the non girl school next door to you but a few years ahead. Honestly love your videos. Emotions happen especially during uni years, keep going you got this girl! Haters got no heart
Thank you so much for talking about this - so important for so many people! Sending you all the love🥰
