    Does anyone else ever feel guilty for being overwhelmed? I have nothing going on right now really. I get up, drop my kids to school, keep house, pick them up, feed them, put them to bed and repeat everyday and yet I feel overwhelmed all the time, and then feel guilty cause I feel like I have no right to be overwhelmed. Its a whole mess 😬

    • @comfyera
      @comfyera 3 года назад +4

      aww yeah I can relate and having kids / keeping the house clean etc can be very overwhelming so you have a right to feel overwhelmed at times!

      been able to work at home at full pay since last March, kids are healthy, we have safe/comfortble home--I feel very guilty and shameful sometimes about being stressed.overwhelmed by work/kids/being stuck in--in Boston I see people everyday living in doorways and in makeshift tents around the city, people live in RV's parked nearby--feel horrible being so ungrateful and entitled

      You have a feeling. It’s not good or bad, it just is. Don’t feel guilty. Love on yourself and those babies, and then move on 🌷

    • @ellawarnberg4528
      @ellawarnberg4528 3 года назад +3

      Yeah, I relate too, I have so few things I actually need to do, yet I feel really anxious and overwhelmed at the smallest things. Really, I have everything I need and I’m safe and have people I love around me, there’s really not anything that feels like it justifies this feeling. Still, I tell myself this and I’ll share in case anyone needs the reminder too: it’s okay to feel what you’re feeling even though other people might have it worse. Someone else’s struggles does not invalidate yours. Do your best, try to take care of yourself and show yourself some compassion through this, and remember that everything is temporary and this too will pass.

      I have a pretty simple life myself and I get overwhelmed too- I guess some of us have a high level of anxiety and sometimes I check my current life situation and think “ why am I so stressed out”? No idea I guess I am just wired for stress

    @cosmicsoul362 3 года назад +5

    Not sure where I read this, but whenever I hit an overwhelming moment in a day/might be anxiety kicking in, I 'take note' of my 5 senses. I ask myself, what do I see? what do I hear? what do I taste? what do I smell? what do I feel? (not internally, but physically, am I holding something? is my sweater soft? is the wind brushing mu skin? etc.) at first I thought it sounded really silly, not sure why I even tried it, but it has a strange way of grounding me back, even if it's just enough to make me remember to breathe deeply and refocus. Just sharing in hopes it can help some one else :)

      I heard about it first in jay Shetty's podcast.. rule of 5 4 3 2 1... 5 things you see 4 things you touch 3 things you hear 2 things you smell 1 thing you taste... And i try to do it when I'm anxious.. it helps bringing me back in present moment

    I'm 26 now and I've been following your content here and on your main channel for many years 🌱 (even when I changed my RUclips accounts etc., I always subscribed to you first thing 😊). I literally feel like I'm growing up with you because we go through similar experiences, thoughts, struggles, relationships - I really wanted to take this moment to thank you for that, from the bottom of my heart. ❤️ What you talk about is basically what my girlfriends and me talk about - so, many videos you uploaded in the past few months have felt like coming home to a good friend and talking about the universe in the living room, sipping tea and charging chrystals on the windowsill. 🙏🏼✨

    Pausing at 12:20 to say I felt SO CALLED OUT on using procrastination as my vice for when I feel stressed and overwhelmed. I've been catching myself doing it so much more lately, and becoming aware of the ways I'm procrastinating has helped tremendously in learning how to deal with it

  • @LittleLimm
    @LittleLimm 3 года назад +1

    I feel so overwhelmed by my intense loneliness.
    I have grown so distant from the few friends I had over the past year. There's really no one I can call or invite over or talk to right now. That's so difficult for me to deal with. And with Covid, I cant go out and socialize to form any kind of connection. I have tried zooming with people but ultimately, that makes me feel even more lonely, because there is such a huge gap between what real connection would feel like and the scheme of online interaction, where you cant really feel the other persons energy... At least I am having a ton of problems with that. It's tough to not revert back to old and bad habits, like self-harming.
    I'm definitely going to try the journal prompt, but as of right now, I dont know how to handle this loneliness and feeling of disconnection

    I love how honest you are, many people are using a crutch during this hard time. It’s a hard to see that you are doing that sometimes. Food has been a huge one for most ppl during the pandemic. I think yoga and meditation 🧘‍♀️ would be more helpful, and learning to talk and let go . Coping in healthy ways is very hard to do!

      If you're on an iPhone, for some reason it doesn't show up. If you have a desktop computer or download the chrome app the 'Join' button should pop up by the subscribe button ✨
