      Idk if you know her but Kennedy Walsh is also a RUclipsr like that, she embraces her alone time. Thought it would be nice to tell you if you like seeing things that make you feel comfortable with being alone. Her recent vlogs are really calming

      Hi I'm from Iran
      Plz share this to avoid more women being slaughtered for obligatory and force hijab.
      In Iran a few days ago a 22 year old girl was brutally murdered by morality police because they considered her to not have proper hijab. Share this and be our voice.

  • @lilymarie7112
    @lilymarie7112 2 года назад +95

    I think it’s fun to be alone when it’s your choice, not your only option. I’ve been living alone for 3 years now (I’m 22) and only had super flaky friends that I eventually drifted away from.
    I don’t miss going out/sleepovers/clubbing etc, what I really miss is the consistency of talking to another human being. Someone to tell your day to. Even just coexisting with someone without much conversation.
    Living alone can be isolating. The worst part for me was losing my personality. When you don’t have people to interact with you stop knowing who you are. Even your likes/dislikes get foggy because when you’re lonely you don’t enjoy much of anything. Every single thing you do becomes your choice, instead of a routine that involves another person. It’s like you’re hyperaware of everything you’re doing.
    The worst part for me was realizing it didn’t make a difference if I did my hot girl routine of gym, journaling, reading, etc. or if I just watched RUclips all day. Nothing to keep you accountable and no one making sure you’re okay.
    Sorry for the rant, just wanted to say my piece.

    coming from someone who can't drive, is doing school online and has no friends, I completely understand everything that you talked about in this video, it's such an awful feeling and is so hard to deal with/ come out of (at least it has been for me lately). your videos in general have been so so nice and comforting to watch when I've been feeling lonely, and while this feeling sucks and I feel bad that you've been experiencing it too, it's still so nice knowing that I'm not alone in this feeling, so thank you for making this vlog and talking about it with us. I'm glad things were seeming to get better for you during this week, and I hope that they continue getting better so you don't have to experience this feeling as much (or at all, hopefully) anymore.💗

    I actually really appreciate her commentary on how much school affects her. Like I know for the most part we don't like school. But just having someone really say it out loud I don't know it just does something to me cuz I really felt her words. I'm about to start college literally tomorrow and I'm already anxious about it and the work and the assignments and the course load and just not having time to myself and the things that I like to do so I'm glad Steph was able to shed light on her experience in terms of her dislike for school's ability to literally drain you cuz I felt that (and this is coming from someone that excels in school work).

You can invite over whoever you want, host people, and still have your space and privacy when you want. Now that I live with my bf I feel like that alone time prepared me and that I didn’t miss out on that experience. Wishing you all the best Steph loved this vlog ☺️

    I'm 23, living with my fiancé, almost done with uni, and I still 100% get how you're feeling. I think uni/college is a time when a lot of us feel lost, lonely, kinda like floating in a sea of chaos waiting to find a stream to get us out into calmer waters. I'm currently in my second extra semester, and I know for a fact that I need a third one to finish my thesis and be done with my degree once and for all. Your videos started to be a thing that I look forward to each week, and your platform started to feel like a safe space to go to, when feeling lost. Thank you for making life feel a little nicer when you post💕

    • @jackysaurusr3x

      @Hazel Allison I get what you’re saying. We’ve been friends and later a couple for years already & got engaged a few months ago on our anniversary, we’ll probably not be able to have a wedding for 3 more years though. And while I personally don’t think being engaged has to take away my independence (eg. we never put any pressure on the other to do what’s best for being a family. He finished his apprenticeship a few years ago, I’m still a student and he doesn’t expect me to stop studying anytime soon. If I wanted to do my masters degree and maybe even study on, I could), I also know my grandma is currently in her 3rd marriage.
      Not that I have to explain anything, I just want to say: if it’s well thought out and both partners respect the goals and situation of the other, being engaged at 23 is less a problem of independence nowadays. I personally was never interested in “work on my career ‘til 30” (to name the extreme), I also didn’t really cut back for my partner in any way. And while there are some restrictions now (like, I’m not gonna move countries now or even to a far away city), I don’t really mind them for different reasons.
      I know I explained more than probably even expected, I’m just bad a cutting myself short. So I hope you enjoyed that snippet into my life/ my take on being independent in a relationship 😂
      On that note, have a wonderful day or night in whatever timezone you are 💕
      (Also I’m sorry for possible typos, I just woke up and haven’t had coffee yet.)

I was homeschooled for 6 years and I decided to go to pubic school for high school because how isolating it was and did so much better mentally but college is making me feeling how I felt being homeschooled. It sucks. One thing I do to help not lose my mind is find a local library that’s no apart of my school so I can just hear people around me.

    This made me feel so much better. I feel lonely at my school all the time and I’m a senior in college too. It’s so relieving to know that I’m not alone in that.

    I never knew about this page until today.. (I’ve now been binge watching videos for at leastt an hour 😅) & I just HAVE to say … you seem like you’re such a genuine & real person, your vibes are felt thru a screen. 😌 & this video I related to soo much.. I moved to a different state with no family or friends & 3+ yrs later I’m still trying to navigate always working & not having a car… don’t really get out enough or have much time to make friends so I was just over here shaking my head like yuppppp it be like that lmao
    But I’m glad you did get to go out! Love your videos! Just keep doing what you’re doing & hope you do feel better ! 🥹💜 & btw you’re sooo freaking prettyyyyy , I can’t ! 😍

    I just wanted to thank you for being one of my fav and comfort youtubers, videos like this one make me feel like I am watching a friend.
    I am an introvert with social anxiety that has learned how to be alone and never gets bored ( i have lots of hobbies as you can imagine ) but there is always a time where i feel very very lonely. I feel like I am nobody’s fav person and I have no one to blame but me. Thank you for sharing your feelings💕

    Gosh, I know the feeling of not allowing yourself to do anything until all your work is done...it's such a vicious cycle. I decided to downgrade my bachelors to an associates, decided to entirely change majors, and am currently going to a school that gives me absolute freedom over how many courses a semester I take (they offer flexibility on which half of the semester I take it as well). At the moment it's just two classes this semester, and I've been doing so much better at finishing work.
    Instead of forcing deadlines on myself, my therapist challenged me to write a to-do list every day, until I can feel comfortable with looking at the full week's schedule (I was struggling with how busy the week ahead looked like, so I ended up becoming overwhelmed before anything even started LOL). Funny enough, I have NEVER struggled with schedules like I do now, and I think it has a lot to do with the same feeling you are going through. Feeling trapped, even though you're not. So...since implementing that strategy, I also wrote motivational sticky notes that say: Plans fall apart, Paola (my name lol). It's okay. Plans can change. Plans can be remade (something my therapist told me also). And Also: It's a bad day, not a bad life (given to me by my cousin haha).
    I journaled extensively those two weeks. Relearned how to talk to myself because that had actually changed over the years. Whenever I felt it, even if I was in the middle of working (luckily I work from home and can manage my to-do list at work as well, so I had the time). And yeah...I made it through. I can manage my weekly schedule again, and when it falls apart, I simply change it. :) I break tasks down throughout several days, even if it's just one assignment (I have a programming course that is much more difficult than the other class, and the assignments will take me literally 4 hours to complete - so I started breaking them down to 2 hours on separate days~). And if it's a late assignment - I say fuck it. It's late, but at least I turned it in. And I do better the next week (the goal for me is consistency, even if I drag my feet haha).
    For me, it was the crushing loneliness that was making everything so challenging. I've never had this issue before, I love to be alone. But these days, my priorities and my desires and my wants are all changing. But before I start breaking down and isolating, I need to be comfortable with the quiet again, with my time alone. I started neglecting myself and focusing on everyone else because I was tired of healing me (and to be honest, I didn't want to look at all the things I needed to change about myself). 7 years later, and I was finally starting to feel how much I procrastinated on my life. And yeah, my therapist is helping me out, but in truth, it is our choice how we wanna experience life and how we ultimately want to live it. I just told myself I need help to get back on track, but I love her. Without her these last two weeks would have been a disaster.

    The loneliness since like June has been unbearable. I’ve lived alone so much, but it’s never been like this! I’m going to assume it’s post-pandemic stuff that I’ll realize more about later. - I just found your channel and I love it! Thank you so much for filling the silence. I feel like this video was confirmation that I’m not alone in how I’ve been feeling. I also wish I could make vlogs like yours!

    your feelings are so relatable cause i use to make everything by myself, go to places by myself and solve all of my problems by myself cause i feel comfortable that way. and i truly enjoy being alone and read, walk or watch something. but sometimes it kinda hits me with loneliness and i miss my friends and my mom, but that’s okay. those feelings pasts, like everything does in our life. i’m kinda proud of myself for being to be by myself and enjoy it cause some people genuinely can’t do shit alone or being independent and suffering from it?? i don’t know it’s kinda sad for them, but not me.
    so i’m really understand what you feel but also proud of you cause you’re such a smart, kind and independent young lady and i’m rooting for you and enjoy your videos.
    and your vlogs are interesting to watch and enjoyable to listen so keep them going!
    also, i’m 25 and been living kinda by myself (apart from my mom) since i was 18 and i’m kinda got used to it. I travel, move and change jobs and ppl in my life but never feel too sad or anxious cause i have me and i know i can live on my own. so it’s a great thing actually. and being sad and lonely sometimes is perfectly okay. you and all of us doing great ❤️

    Steph, thank you for being so honest and explaining all your feelings! I'm sure it's going to help a lot of people, cause most of us feel like that one day or the other... I felt pretty much like that at the beginning of the year! I had recently moved to LA alone, and despite making friends, they're not always down to hang out, we're all busy etc. so I understand what you're going through and I'm glad you found vlogging helpful!! also I'm in LA without a car, so talk about feeling stuck :0 Anyway, keep uploading the vlogs, I'll keep watching! Your channel is so peaceful, so bright, your videos always make me happy! I love your personality and ofc your books taste!!! idk if u like working out, but since I found a gym that I really like, it made my days so much brighter, maybe you could find an activity to make u go out without needing anyone... idk something that sounds fun for you! I just hope you don't feel down again (even if it's normal and human so we naturally will...) but if you feel lonely, remember we're here

    I just moved in with my boyfriend after living alone for 7 years and now I look back on that period of my life and I'm so happy that's what I chose to do. During undergrad people always asked me if I found it boring but tbh it taught me how to be resourceful and how to be intentional and selective about the people I surround myself with. I now have friends in their thirties who regret always having had roommates or living with their partners but it's harder to go back and recreate the schedules and lives we had while studying! One day living alone might not be feasible, affordable or something you want (lets say you fall in love!!) so absolutely take advantage of it ❤I highly recommend the book the lonely city by Olivia Laing!

    • @lexiekimm
      @lexiekimm 2 года назад +1

      oh and also... sometimes my issue was the living in a studio or small space rather than being alone. its normal to lose motivation and feel a bit stuck when you're spending 80% of the day in the same space and most of your "accomplishments" for that day are invisible or on a computer. that's when I would redecorate, go for walks, see friends or try to get a change of scenery so I didn't feel like a lab rat pacing in my little 250 sqft cage 🙃
