    Watching your videos is like catching up with an old friend, they're just so comforting and chill ✨
    Take care of you Amanda, and be proud of you for going through what you've gone through this year with so much resilience. You have been very opened and vulnerable with us, and that's a true sign of strongness. ❤

    Amanda, it’s always so good to watch one of your videos. I whole heartedly feel you on the back and forth of depression and trying to better and the weight of the surgery which feels like it reorganizes your insides - body, mind and soul. Be kind to yourself. And it sounds like your bf is great support. I let go of working out and inside started yoga and somatic stretching. It’s helped me connect with my body again. And it feels great to move in a way that doesn’t feel super high energy or impact. But still the days where my bed and heating pad are all I want happen too. You’ll find your own way and balance 💜

    I'm sorry it has been an hard year for you, but happy that you have such a lovely boyfriend to support you! I hope the new house will also have a positive impact. But moving is also exhausting, so I hope you take it easy (which is hard I know, bc RUclips is your job and not easy to take breaks from it). Your hair looks really healthy btw, the colour suits you much more I think!

    I would like to send you lots of love, strength and happiness, bc you deserve it so much Amanda! When you talked about your mental health in this video it touched me and I would so much want to give you a big, big hug (but you’re on the other side of the globe)! Even though I haven’t been through a similar surgery I can say that I know the feeling that you describe quite well from something I’ve been through last year. It can feel lonely, and sad, and that’s also ok. You can do it. Be kind to yourself and give yourself as much time as you need. Lots of love, Ismay. ❤❤❤

    that noodle soup looks SO delicious, I have to try it! also, I'm of course struggling with different things than you, but I know what it's like when you're having a hard time and sometimes you just wanna stay in bed. I'm glad you're starting to find some balance and are figuring things out tho, that's really great! sending strength

    Oh my gooood, I love Emily Henry and read the same books in the same order as you did (and feel the same way about them haha). I got Book Lovers a couple of days ago. 🥰 Finishing my psychological thriller first and then I'm ready for some romance! ❤ Loved catching up with you. Thank you for your authenticity. ✨

    • @evasiebenhaar2729
      @evasiebenhaar2729 3 месяца назад

      Oh and Fredrik Backman has some really books. Not the obvious romance, but a especially A Man Called Ove is low key romantic. Also it's hilarious. Taylor Jenkins Reid has also some nice reads and if you like spicy 🌶 stuff, then treat yourself to The Blindfold Club. Also Fourth Wing is an amazing read. I'm not into fantasy, but this is like Hunger Games meets Fifty Shades Of Grey, haha.

    That’s so exciting with the move. Wish rents were capped in this country, it’s not fair the lack of security. Everytime I see you make a meal, I think how delicious it looks! Best wishes and take care of yourself.

    It’s a lot of stress and a lot of stress women put on themselves to be prepared, be well, feel good etc. sounds like you’re burned out so the spark dims but just give urself grace. It will all be ok

    Only part way though but had to comment congratulations on being approved for your new place! 🎉🎉 it is so tough right now to find a place to live with so many people looking and also the affordability.
    So happy for you!!! Yay! No matter what happens over the next month or so before your move just stay present and do whatever you can in the moment (try not to let future thoughts add stress to your life).
    Best wishes for an easy transition from your current abode to your new one. Xx❤

    I would recommend Annabel Monaghan (especially Nora goes off script), Ashley Poston, Casey McQuiston and Taylor Jenkins Reid (especially the Seven Husband of Evelyn Hugo, One True Loves and Maybe in Another Life). I read all the Emily Henry books and Funny Story and Book Lovers are my favourites. Enjoy 💛

    Paying rent is like throwing money out the window. I had my own place by the time I was your age. Previously I lived in a 2-room apartment and paying very little in rent. I lived there 5 years, and I saved money for a downpayment on a place. You don't have to buy a huge house. You can start small, then when you pay that off, you can upgrade. Otherwise, you are going to be paying an ever-increasing rent, and you will have nothing. Just my advice.

    • @AmandaDucks
      @AmandaDucks  3 месяца назад +13

      That’s really nice that you could afford that and do that for yourself but I didn’t ask for advice.
      You also don’t know the financial situation I’m in, how much I earn or how much my rent/cost of living is. Please think before you next comment on this to another stranger.
      Oh, and I don’t and won’t ‘have nothing’ - I have a loving partner, roof over my head, beautiful family, employment to make ends meet, wonderful friends and my health.
