    I am 35 years old, and I've only now been realizing that the parts of myself that I've hated and been trying to change my entire life aren't going anywhere. Like you, I am highly sensitive, and coming from a stoic family, that felt like a weakness or flaw. But this is an integral part of my identity, and radical acceptance has been essential for my mental health. I've been letting myself be vulnerable and emotional around my friends even though it's terrifying, and it has deepened my connections with them. My emotions are not a flaw.

    I’m much older than you, Ana, in my early 70’s, and am just getting used to myself. I want to be social but it’s exhausting. I want many groups of friends but simply can’t maintain a lot of contacts. I’m learning to enjoy my social moments, I feel welcomed, and then go home to relax and process it all. I survived my working years with plenty of good times and fun but I’m so glad to have a quiet life now. Please enjoy Belgrade and show us more, I love traveling the world via RUclips. And your voice and stories are wonderful to listen to.

      I can really relate to this. I am living on my own the last few years for the first time in my life and after the initial shock of having little contact with people (happened during Covid so it was extreme), I found there is also a quiet rhythm to living alone that is very peaceful. I do find now, though, that I am way over stimulated by outside stuff. I wonder if I always was and just ignored it, or if it is because of a quieter life?

    Ana, your growth is a remarkable thing. You can afford to be very proud of yourself. I do believe firmly that HSP's are having a normal response to a world that has become highly dysfunctional. There is nothing 'wrong' with HSP's and everything right. The global culture has left our fellow humans feeling worthless. I now approach them with sympathy and compassion. How exhausting their lives must be.

    I am so happy to see you back and happy to see you are getting sponsorships. Aura made a good choice with you; you are the perfect advocate.
    I have been struggling with confidence and friendships lately. I have recently let go of a long time friend who constantly berated me for my tone and accused me of bad intentions based on her interpretation of my tone. No matter how much I told her I didn’t intend the things she ‘heard’ (and I didn’t), she would persist in her accusations and criticisms. I have very recently determined I am autistic, which is why I tend to be very blunt and direct. I don’t speak in socially acceptable tones because I neither hear or understand them. I always felt others spoke a language I didn’t get. That I missed some instructions others had. Well one day, in the midst of her criticisms of how I sounded, i just hung up. And I haven’t spoken to her since. After 20 years. And while I am sad about it, I don’t really miss her at all. I feel more and more than I must protect and care fir myself, and stop trading myself to get others to ‘like me’. These are probably the last few years of my life and I want to make them as good as I can. They are for me, not for others.
    I am continuing my efforts to prepare myself for winter. I have someone who will rent my house for 3 months starting in January. I am working on getting my house ready and my new car ready to be my camper. I am excited to go back out to the desert and camp with friends.
    I am also engaged in working on campaigns and trying to help create a blue wave here in the US. So important to avoid/resist the fascism that seems to be sweeping the world. This is something that really matters to me. I’m so sorry about what is happening to the Russian people being conscripted into the army. I follow a number of Russian content creators since finding you. It’s sad for Russia and hard on Ukraine. I also feel great pain for the young women in Iran. We must rid the world of dictators.
    I hope you and Brian are progressing in your plans. I think about you often and how things are going. Pleas share what you can about your plans and arrangements. I worry, and I’m sure others do too.
    Much love to you both and go the community here.

      I hope your camper-style winter will go perfectly well. Can't wait to hear the updates from you 🤗
      As always, I admire your energy and moral stance, my friend.
      Indeed, the world is tired of tyrants, they all must leave...
      Hopefully, very soon I'll share our news and updates! Everything is pretty stressful and time-consuming at the moment, but things are progressing.

Raised by a czechoslovakian holocaust survivor father and a 1st generation American mother whose parents were Russian. I’m also Jewish although non practicing, married to a atheist non Jewish man for 40 years. I had a very difficult childhood as my parents were both traumatized and often abusive.

      @@Michelle_EmmYes, I am around the same age, but do find that I get lots of comments on my appearance from friends and coworkers which I just really hate. I had just decided during the pandemic on a simple Mennonite dress pattern because I liked the way it looked, could sew it myself and tailor it to be comfortable. But I find I get a lot of unpleasant comments from people in the world when I wear it, and then when I wear "regular street clothes" get a lot of unwanted comments about how good I look. Ugh...I love the dresses I made because they actually fit and cover everything I want covered. I thought once I was older, I could pull a Tasha Tudor and do whatever I liked without comments. As a consequence, I just keep flipping back and forth between the two ways of dressing, or trying to find ways to sew the Mennonite dress pattern where it will be accepted. It feels so horrible to care so much about what others think that you don't do what feels comfortable.

It just sound so good in Spanish for me, that I had to write in in the original language. In English it would be something like: " One (the women) is the most authentic when the most looks like what she dreamt about herself".

    For many years between 30 and 50 I bemoaned my graying hair as a sign of my aging, marginalization, and of being less desirable. So I embraced hair dye, makeup and more " fashionable" clothing to ameliorate my discomfort. After menopause my attitude changed completely. I broke under the strain of being and acting something I wasn't and looking fake. I thought..." what a crock of shit! I've been embracing society's selling of female sexuality as the ideal. What's MY ideal?
    So. Hair it's natural gray cut short and boyish for maintainability. I don't own any makeup. I wear what I can get from thrift stores supplemented by sale items.
    Like you, I'm highly sensitive but for years I built a castle around that sensitivity to protect myself. If I can ever dismantle that fortification I'll finally be free. Listening you you Ana and hearing about your efforts to be vulnerable helps tremendously. Xx

Currently living in two countries a bit nomadic style, since after covid remote work is possible, makes choices also not easy.

    I’m 52, and I remember being younger (especially in my 20’s) and feeling so tired all the time when around people… I’d go to parties and fall asleep! I once fell asleep on a sofa in a nightclub. But yet, I could stay up into the wee hours reading a book in my apartment. We didn’t have the internet back then, so I had no idea why I would feel that way when trying to socialize. I’ve learned so much over the last few years about being introverted / HSP, it now all makes sense when I look back at my past behaviors and responses. There is/was such a push to go out, to be a part of some crowd. However, I do love seeing music live, that is the only thing I can handle (as long as I’m seated in a balcony at the end of a row where I’m feeling a bit more alone haha).

I admire your philosophical approach to all that you have encountered, as well as your filming and editing skills. One thing that introverted HSP people have most strongly is the gift of observation. Be blessed, Ana, stay safe in your ongoing travels.

    I wish I had either shown vulnerability to make my boss feel guilty, or told her about confidence when she was upset I had signed up for a one-person shift. I'll admit, I am much better with a helping hand and guide, and that I'm kind of a slow learner, but come on, that's no excuse for how direct and condescending she was. One of our student leader's responsibilities is organizing who works which shifts on the schedule, and my boss scolded him for not noticing I had signed up for a one-person shift. When she asked him if she thought I could do the shift, I answered for him with a firm "yes," because I felt belittled by her. She said she didn't think so, was all "I've told you not to sign up for shifts by yourself, I've been very clear about that, I don't know how much clearer I can get for you to listen" (something like, that, so I'm not perfectly quoting her), and she told me I need someone there to give me instructions and guide me. I'm mad at myself for not standing up to her. She intimidates me when she's in a bad mood, but still, at the very least, I should've told her "my family always taught me to be self-confident and believe in my abilities," to challenge her to coldly disagree with that. What kind of person would be THAT cruel? Or better yet, to show her how depressed and self-doubtful I feel, to put some shame in her. In my opinion, she's a disgrace to me!

    I am struggling with confidence. And maybe accepting that that's the way I am will help? Definitely the book "Feel the fear and do it anyway" helped me a lot. And the life situations in which I had no choice but to overcome my lack of confidence had built my confidence. However I will probably never be the person who is naturally confident. The reasons are in my childchood (like in the most cases) and I spent some time to analyse it, but it didn't get me far. Knowing the reasons not always automatically gives the solution, that will work. Realizing that I don't have to be confident at all times, helps. Sometimes it's ok to let others to be the confident ones... Having said that, I know I am at my happiest when I am in my most confident self.

    I’m also an HSP, and I’ve always struggled with confidence. I started a new job teaching recently and I’ve been really doubting myself, more than ever. I wonder if my colleagues even like me. I was thinking maybe I’m just trying to hard and it’s obvious. The only thing I can think to do is just to keep my head down and do the best job I can. I also feel like I smile, laugh and talk too much. I always leave feeling like, I’m just to awkward and sensitive to be here. I’m 42, and I’ve found that with age, I care less and less, about what others think or say, But somehow it never fails that my worst critic is always my self.

When I overthink and overfeel, focusing on the work process is the best. Sending you much love and support, my friend 💙

Это тяжело, здесь все не пределе, нервы сдают. Посмотрим, что принесёт новый день. Пишу вам эти комментарии всегда, как другу. Надеюсь, что у вас все хорошо. И поздравляю с рекламой в видео 🤍

    Ana, the Henry David Thorueau quote really caught my attention. For years, I have questioned my choice to be an artist as a "responsible" life decision. Only recently have I publicly admitted to being an artist. I have followed my desire to live a creative life, and now I am seeing the successes. These successes are not financial, but happiness in realizing that I have no regrets, due to my choices.

    Anna Dear, it is so Amazing to see you now. You came such a long way when I first saw you (in a video tour of your apartment in Siberia). I was "hooked" from that video. I watched all your other videos in one day. I am a highly sensitive person as well (well, most Vegans are). Your videos are beautiful, and your topics are very thoughtful and helpful. I hate to be a person who says: "met too, me too". I can relate to so many things you talk about (low confidence, preference of being alone, high sensitivity...). I have always thought that there was something wrong with me. I don't like being around people. I have no friends and I prefer being at home with my husband and my doggies. I have a very understanding husband which really helps me. I am so glad you have Brian and that you are happy. I have to tell you; your videos are very well done. They are like an art. Beautiful, calming and unforgettable. Thank you again for another fantastic video.

    Wow! When you talked about the actor, that was me! Many a time I would look in the mirror and tell myself it's time to go on stage. And I became this different person. Perhaps that's where my confidence began to grow...and then I became a better version of myself. I had never looked at it this way before. I thought I was doing that because I was a coward and that was the only way I could face life.
    Now, I really don't care. Do I want to be likable? Yes. But if someone doesn't like me, it doesn't matter to me. I know who I am. I try to look presentable, because I feel better when I'm neat and clean. As for gray hair and wrinkles, I always told my kids that I earned every single one and wear those badges proudly! Lol!
    God bless you in your life quest!

    Very often I feel your videos speak directly to my soul, but I have to say that this one, especially hit home. I have just decided to stop dyeing my hair, and have really only discovered lately that I am an introvert and that it is ok to be one. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could all just be who we are without "shoulds" and judgement? This has made me much less judgemental of other people (working on it).

    This is so uplifting, Ana. I think we can make the creativity and the movies and art and writing the reality. I am a highly sensitive person, as well, and I am not quite at the point of acceptance. I can see how those traits can help me to experience beauty more thoroughly, so that is a good thing. I am still getting overwhelmed too often, however. I suppose I need to simply learn how to protect myself in a better way. Fortunately, my yoga and music help greatly. I think you are very correct when you say it helps you to share your true self with others through your lovely You Tube channel. I very much enjoyed the botanical gardens! Have a peaceful week!
