I came across your video amung other solo date vlogs, and I truly appreciate you speaking about your experience and dealing with your anxiety and uncomfortable feelings. I can completely relate with you. Personally, I love spending time byself and have so much anxiety thinking about spending the afternoon on a picnic by myself, as you did. You are so self aware, kind and forgiving to yourself - it's amazing. Thank you for sharing your journey :) Cheers, Lo
It’s starting to feel so much easier to go out and do things by myself in public - being consistent and going out (once a week now) in spite of my fear of doing things alone has been HUGE for improving my confidence. I promise, the initial uncomfy feelings are so minuscule compared to being on the other side of this fear, you’ve got this!! 🤍 thank you so much for being here and for this sweet comment! Sending you so much love (:
This is one of the most relatable vlogs I’ve come across in a very long time. I heavily relate to your talk when you were in the car and touching on having a problem with perfectionism and putting off plans if they will not be perfect as you’ve planned. I also have this issue mixed in with ADHD/OCD and it is very hard to navigate. I also deal with social anxiety and hearing constant thoughts in my head of “what will/do the people around me think” and generally feeling paranoid when in high volume places. That encounter with that man was super creepy. I’m glad you’re okay. I’m so proud of you for going out alone and facing your fears, you did amazing.
I cannot begin to describe how thankful i am to have came across your channel. I struggle with social anxiety, driving anxiety,etc. and this year i wanted things to change. Trust me I’ve tried searching for channels/vids/tiktoks that actually show what living with social anxiety is like, tried searching things like “driving anxiety vlog, fear of men, anxiety at gas stations”. You name it. Just, to search for someone I can relate to. Someone who shares their real feelings, struggles and experiences. And i came across your channel 🥺 somehow i felt “heard” and understood when you mentioned about your driving anxiety, and how you got anxious after getting disturbed by a random stranger in this vlog. Because i struggle with those too. I restrict myself from doing things on my own, bcs im scared of driving alone and finding for parking spots, im scared of getting catcalled, i get scared over the silliest things. So thank you, thank you for making me feel like im not crazy or petty. For making me feel like I can do it ❤️ looking forward to more vlogs like this 🥺
Oh wow I’m so so happy that you resonated with this vlog so much. I felt really alone in my fears too and didn’t know if I should even post this video because I was embarrassed. 🥺 I was TERRIFIED (probably much more than I’m showing in the video) of leaving the apartment and driving to places by myself. Your fears are DEFINITELY not silly, I recently took a self-defense class that really helped - the sad reality is that it’s important to be prepared in case something does happen, but you deserve to feel like you’re living your life the way you want to live it. Going to that coffee shop you enjoy so much, taking yourself out to a nice meal, or going for a walk outside to decompress and get fresh air. As long as we’re reasonably safe about it, we deserve to take up space. I truly hope you find small ways to go up against your fears, I promise you, it is possible! 🫶🏻❤️
Yeahh!!! I think am completely relate this , when am going outside am always afraid of everyone around !! Its like sensation in whole body and just go back home asap!!!
You can be so proud of yourself! Self-love is the hardest thing. I've never felt uncomfortable being by myself, sometimes quite the opposite, but I am struggling immensly with self-compassion and breaking my own negative reinforcements. I am so happy for yiu taking these very important steps on your own journey! All the love. (Also really like this video style :) )
You’re so sweet thank you so much! Self-compassion can be REALLY difficult to put into practice, but you deserve to treat yourself like you would a friend or a loved one. You are amazing! Sending you so much love!! ❤️(:
Thank YOU for being here and listening! I’m so happy you love the video! I truly want this channel to feel like a safe space for everyone here so that we can grow into our authentic selves together. (:
That person being rude was awful but I am so proud of you for ignoring him! I personally hate mean people to be honest...I want to try this with myself as well but not really a picnic but maybe sitting at a restaurant alone or something! I suffer with mental health disorders and don't really have friends either so I need to start being kinder to myself at least because no one in my personal life will be toward me! This is such a good idea I loved your video! Keep making them I love videos on self-care and self-love! People are awful and may leave you such as friends, partners, or family but the one person that cannot leave because you can see it in the mirror is yourself be kind to yourself because you are all you have people are horrible look at society today it's horrible on the news killings and fights and much more too...Personally I want nothing to do with society as a whole...I prefer to be alone it's better that way people break your heart and are mean not worth it in my opinion! I know because it happened to me my whole life....Anyway loved the video and great idea I should take myself out on a date too and do the things I enjoy like hobbies I am important because at the end of the day you come home to yourself the one person that just can't leave you so why not love yourself I truly believe we all should do that! Love from others is not forever but self-love last forever people come and go but you have a choice to stay with yourself love this video thank you for posting gives me ideas to do more self-love in my life and really be kinder to myself since I do have depression after all...! Have a great day everyone!
You’re so sweet, thank you so much! Going to your favorite restaurant would be such a fun solo date - you could order whatever you want, treat yourself to a nice meal, and maybe bring a book to read! Or spending the day focusing on your favorite hobbies is a beautiful way to show yourself some love! Showing yourself kindness and reframing the way you perceive yourself can be challenging at first but with practice, patience, and consistency, the relationship you build with yourself will be incredible! YES! It’s so important to find ways to foster self-love as often as you can with practices/rituals that feel best for you. 🥰🤍
i did not see anything wrong with this encounter with this gentleman, he continued riding his bike. he did not stop and invade your space, annoy you until he got your number. which has happened to me multiple times. i believe he was just making casual conversation. some people just have a strong urge to say Hello to everyone and give a compliment. Maybe there is more to this clip that i did not see. Maybe i'm seeing it from a different view as someone who has been assulated.
i love this! solo dates are such a good idea definitely gonna have to take myself on one! also i recently have developed driving anxiety, i never wanna drive i always have my mom drive me which is so frustrating because i never had a problem before! i’m trying my best to take baby steps and be gentle with myself!
Oh my goodness do it!!! Take yourself on that solo date! Driving anxiety is so tough to navigate, but it’s only been a month and just by being the main driver between Justin and me and slowly dipping my toes into driving places by myself, I‘ve seen a HUGE improvement in my anxiety! Keep being gentle with yourself but definitely keep pushing yourself too 🤍🥰
Awe I’m so glad! I really hope you take yourself on a solo date, It’s life changing if you struggle with codependency or are afraid of doing things alone 🥹🫶🏻 sending you so much love!!
