In the past, when I made videos for another channel, I would do the same with ignoring comments. I knew I'd feel the sting too much, especially if I put lots of effort in or displayed emotion. But like you found, most people are great. Especially, if you are part of a RUclips community.
These days I struggle to have the same desire to make videos to even put myself out there but I haven't given up yet. Great video to make people think abouy emotional vulnerability. I do think it is important to select who you show EV to and how much.
A helpful thing I heard:
F.E.A.R.
Face Fear And Recover. Eventually fears, gets easier to face.
I hate to admit that I get depressed from time to time. I noticed that when I'm not being true to the person that God made me to be, my depression comes on stronger.. My anxiety also gets stronger when I'm not being my true self.
I'm learning to forgive myself faster for mistakes and negative choices, but it's a process. I used to be ruthless to myself. Practice makes progress. I will never be perfect, nor is anyone else. We have to be patient, loving and merciful to ourselves. Not because we deserve it, but because that's how God is to us.
As far as anxiety, I've noticed most of what I've been anxious about has never come to fruition, although my anxiety is very, very real. Knowing that things aren't going to be as bad as they seem has helped my anxiety lessen over time. Most of our anticipatory anxiety is just a bunch of illusions.
Hope I've made some sense. (Didn't get much sleep last night.) Thank you for your videos, they help me think and it helps to share.
I admire your courage and your sincerity in sharing with us, what is such a delicate and interesting subject, a subject that makes us learn about ourselves, and about human feeling in general. congratulations for your work
I know I’m a bit late to the party here. My personal experience with emotional vulnerability has always been though, I’m making progress but my primary way of dealing with struggles, insecurities and emotions in general has usually been with aggression, which i partially blame on toxic masculinity. Which when i mention it has made me implicitly think that i would be pathetic for showing emotion. Anyways thats my two cents worth, it would be interesting to see Kenny’s take on toxic masculinity actually
You specifically have evolved greatly throughout the years you’ve been on RUclips. Am ALL emotions, too much so. I go from one extreme to another. I try and stay logical and realistic. People who are judgement often are projecting themselves. Long videos are great, just as long as you feel you said what is needed, and that definitely takes time to express correctly.
What you feel is honestly what a lot of people feel actually. Some aren't as expressive, some like you and me are quite expressive about it. I wear my heart on my sleeve and that scares people. I've had 2 mental health days at work already and my manager was cool with it. It's crazy how you can be ok , you just have a break down and it can all come out. Being vulnerable is not a weakness. I feel people who are able to show it, in a way, are stronger because letting people know how you feel is opening up and most people are closed about that. It's particularly hard at work - why I've had multiple breakdowns already. Keeping a fake face isn't me. So sometimes I have to remember that.
When I feel emotionally drained, I quickly distract myself. I learned the five seconds method from Mel Robbins, so basically if there is a bad thought 💭 which makes me unhappy or anxious, I mentally wrap it into a rocket, then 5. 4. 3.2.1 set the rocket 🚀 off. I give myself five seconds to indulge with this thought and quickly move to another one. Go out for a walk or start cleaning your bathroom. Whatever you do to distract yourself from the thought. Hope you’re having a great day!
Good suggestion, distract.
