Oh Dear sweet Des. You touched my heartstrings. I wish I could give you a great big hug. I’m an old lady of 64, who has never had kids. I don’t have young people in my life, and I love books and started watching you and Sara and Haley. It’s like you’re my kids now, and I love watching your lives evolve. Take care - you’re doing everything right. You will be just fine. Sending love and hugs your way.
this is the SWEETEST comment.
This is so wholesome 🥹
such a beautiful soul
this is so sweet omg - I will be your child too hahah
This comment was like a hug I can’t explain it
GET A LANDLINE!! It’s sounds so outdated but I live somewhere with no connection to and it really helps you not feel alone and scared when the wifi goes out, you’ll still be able to make calls when the connection or wifi is bad!
Yes! I also still have a landline because I live in a very rural area of Kentucky and cell phone service is not reliable. It really does help to have a landline and be able to call someone without worrying about the phone not working.
It was actually almost a Texas wide outage because the storm took out some tower in Houston. It came on for like 10 minutes and went out again but was back up by like 8 pm.
bestie des we’re all so PROUDDD!!!! the nostalgia is real but this new chapter of your life is going to be so new and fresh 💘💘💘💘💘
Cozy gaming streams would be so fun! I’d love to see some streams if you wanted to try them.
I would for sure watch
AGREED 💛💛
YESS!!
I felt this exact way when I moved to college. Trust me - feel the emotions, keep yourself busy, maybe start going to therapy, and explore your new area!! You can always go back home, but you won't have this moment ever again. Give it your all and then decide. It will get better
I also felt this way when I moved to college. Cried the whole first week and still catch myself feeling isolated a lot. This is a really great way to look at it!
people you see in other moving vlogs might not have the support system you did at home, and it’s okay if that is a priority in your life!! even if it means texas doesn’t end up working out for you. you’re trying something new and that takes so much courage but at the end of the day, you can only know what works for you by trying new things and figuring out what doesn’t work!
I’m positive it will get better but there is no shame in missing a place you felt safe. people spend their whole lives looking for a solid support system it so valuable!
rooting for you! thanks for sharing this journey ❤
Sorry I literally just commented but I would love an animal crossing stream from you or like a paint with me video or even a video of you getting back into your favorite hobbies that aren’t reading. I know sometimes you may feel people only watch you for your book content but sis we watch you because it is YOU! You should do whatever you feel passionate about and I promise it will always target the right people💜
Thank you for being so vulnerable to us des. Girl you made me tear up. You don’t know how much you inspire others and it will be hard moving onto a new chapter but you will get through it and we are here always to support and uplift you the same way you uplift us by posting. We love U DES 🥹❤️❤️🫶🏾
Lifestyle vlogs, or more lifestyle content (making coffee/food or doing chores/running errands) in your weekly vlogs, I’m SO here for. It also makes my own chores more fun to have those on while I’m doing them 💚
this is so random, but i am SO excited to see how you decorate your house for holidays. Fall, christmas, they’re all going to look SO GOOD
Destiny thank you so much for showing all the raw parts of this. I literally sobbed for a week straight when I moved 20 minutes away to my college campus. I’m really close to my family so I understand how hard it can be. But you’re so brave for moving and taking that step. I’m so proud of you!! 🫶🏻🫶🏻
Also a side note: you are literally the cutest crier haha
52 mins? we are blessed
Wanted to offer some encouragement: I moved to a new city during the pandemic and it was very isolating of an experience. What's helped me to finally settle in 4 years later is having somewhere to go as a "3rd place." I attend a free meet up each Saturday and other local events when I can, go to coffee shops and have even joined some book clubs that meet in person. Having a 3rd place to go to has really been a big change for me. But it takes TIME to find the right places and events that are the right fit for you. Hang in there!
Destiny's accent around 12 minutes in is cracking me up because she truly sounds southern when she says "oil" even though she's not even from the south 😂 as a person from the south though, i can confirm you'll fit in just fine, bestie des! 😂❤️
This is the comment I was looking for lol
sounds like you want to stream for you and that’s what is most important, you got it, you don’t have to monetize your joy. We support you either way love
I'm just so happy that you have Charlie there with you I wasn't sure if she was staying with you just hug her always when you're feeling home sick ❤❤❤
I’m usually a silent viewer but your vulnerability about the loneliness and scariness of living away from everyone and everything you know had me crying with you. I haven’t lived in the same state as my family and friends in 4 years and I still have moments where the sadness and homesickness literally feels like it body slams me. As sad as it is it’s nice to know I’m not alone in that feeling and I’m not overreacting. You’re not alone either :) I struggle with horrible horrible anxiety too so I feel you Des! You’re doing a hard thing so remember to be kind to yourself!
Your feelings are so valid Destiny and moving away from family is terrifying. You are doing the best you can and we are so freaking proud🥹♥️ just day by day
I’m old as hell and had to move out when o was 17. But I didn’t have such a close family.
You’re absolutely breaking my heart when you cry because you’re similar age to my son.
And yes, being open helps. It shows people that yes you’re very successful but at the same time you’re going through the motions we all do. I’m glad you kept it in. I think you should always be transparent with your audience. If all we saw was you at your best then that kinda comes unattainable for everyone else.
You’re okay. You’ll be okay and it will take time but please give yourself some grace. You’re doing all you can do but grace is most definitely a needed.
Literally SO proud of you. Starting a new era in a completely new and different place is so hard. Sending all the love and prayers your way!
Sorry to see you're having a tough time with moving. As someone who's moved to three different cities as an adult since finishing my undergraduate degree, and lived in 5 total since leaving for college, here's a few pieces of advice:
1. You're so lucky to have family you want to go home to. Not all of us could stand living with our family for a week, let alone long-term.
2. Be pro-active about finding places where you can meet new people and there's an activity so you don't have to worry about the small talk as much. Find a walking or running group that you can do a few times a week, and if nothing else, it'll get you out into different parts of a new city and hopefully help you meet some friends to make it feel less lonely. Found family has made all the difference for me when moving.
3. I don't think I've ever felt wholly comfortable in a new city in less than a year. Be patient with yourself and try your best to be okay with feeling a bit lost at times. Lean on your partner to help you through it as you can.
You're doing great so far! Just give it time and you'll love living on your own, plus you can always go back and visit family :)
When I first moved out of my parent’s house, I would just start crying doing the most random things. It’s definitely a part of the process. And I only moved an hour and a half away from my family. It’s something that you work through and I’m sending all the positive vibes ❤
Let yourself feel the emotions Des. When I first moved out, I was the exact same way. I would let everything bottle up and the smallest inconvenience made me burst into tears because everything started to boil over. Just take it a day at a time and never feel guilty if you need to take some time from RUclips. We will still be here when you come back! We love you and just want you to take care of yourself first and foremost!
Don’t worry about others who criticize you for being open about your feelings and anxieties. You help so many people by sharing what you are going through. There is nothing wrong with being open, and people who disagree have no place here. I moved away from home myself at the beginning of this year. I moved to a city where i know no one, and over time ive grown very lonely. I relate to what you said about how ur used to waking into a home full of people. It’s one of those things you don’t realize how much it means until you’re away from it. But don’t worry! You are not totally alone, and soon enough you will make friends in your new area! You got this Des!
Fun fact, HEB has an app and you can search for an item in the app. And it will tell you which aisle it is on. Cause there ain’t no way and HEB in Texas didn’t have Sriracha! 😅 kinda teasing, they could have totally been out or no actually have it.
I agree, HEB does carry Sirarcha, maybe she didn't ask or they were out but it's in the same aisle as Soy Sauce, I worked for them years ago.
My heart broke for you while watching you share how isolating you feel. I think your feelings are totally justified and are normal. I have felt that way in the past and we can see how much your family loves you so it has to be tough moving away from them. Please know that it will get better as you adjust to your new home and get into a routine. ❤
I literally have to stop everything I’m doing bc Des just posted another moving vlog 🥰
About 8 months ago I moved across the country away from everything I've ever known. So I get how you're feeling, my family is also huge to me. It honestly took me about a month and a half to stop randomly crying because I was so scared and homesick. Routines are so helpful to make a place feel like home. But you can do this!! Give it some time and see how it feels, but there's honestly no shame in deciding that living that far away isn't for you if you come to that conclusion!
moving is SO HARD. you are NOT alone. thank you for being authentic. I, like you, have only seen positives. this is so real thank u!!!
personally i want to say thank you for being so vulnerable because i am soooo scared to move out and i feel like no one else shows that emotion so thank you so much for showing something that validates my feelings so much!
I am a military wife and I completely understand where you are coming from with moving far away from family for the first time!! I moved from Texas to Maryland in January and my emotions hit a few weeks into the move as well! I just wanted to let you know that it does it get better but days are still hard and I still shed a few tears here in there when I have a rough day and my family isn't physically there to talk to but with that being said it is definitely worth "starting a new chapter" and learning myself more! Your video was very inspiring and made me feel less alone!
I’m 28. This is the moving vlog rawness I needed to see when I was 21 to know I wasn’t alone 🫶🏼 Sending so much love to ya sis. Thanks for being vulnerable!
when i moved to uni (it was only 2.5 hours away from home but the furthest i’ve ever been!) i struggled immensely with homesickness and loneliness. i cried so so so much and it can be so hard! everyone feels the emotions of moving away differently but it’s so so valid to feel emotional and overwhelmed because it is a big change but that’s okay. without change life would be so boring! whilst it’s so hard right now it will get easier even if it doesn’t feel like it and you’ll appreciate the time with your family so much more
I moved 2,000 miles away from home and was thriving until it all hit me about 2 weeks later. It’s now been about 3 months and I’m loving my new city. There’s things I miss from my home state and hard days but overall it’s good.
Thank you for sharing because it makes people feel less alone!
I really love these FaceTime type vlogs they are so well filmed and entertaining!! So proud of you des❤❤
My comfort RUclipsr 🔥🔥
(YESSS U SHOULD 100% STREAM)
I understand so much about you crying about moving. I moved in with my boyfriend a town over from my family in December and the first 2 months I was so stressed and cried all the time bc I missed my hometown and felt like I wasn’t doing anything right. I can just tell you it gets so much better once you fall into a routine!
I am so here for this new era of your life. Also I would love to watch you play animal crossing! It seems like such a fun way for you to enjoy your hobby without feeling guilty about it, and we also get to hang out with you more ❤
thank you des for being so raw and brave uploading this
the way I ran to this video after seeing you posted!
edit: thank you for being so vulnerable with us. I can't even begin to imagine what type of feelings you're going through right now. I hope it all gets better for you des
I love the little smoothie recipe edit on the screen. It’s so cute. Your eyes look even more blue with your brown hair. So pretty!
moving always brings up emotions no matter if its a big or small move. congratulations on the move and cheers to all the new amazing experiences that you will have in your new city!!💖
Hi Destiny,
Seeing your tears over being homesick made me remember being in your same spot. It’s HARD but you’re strong! It may take a couple months, but once you settle in and thrive in your independence, it will be so worth it. 💜
Des, I just want to say how immensely proud of you we all are. We are all gonna miss the old chapter of your life in your old bedroom with the yellow door but you are moving on to do bigger and better things. Thank you for always being so open and vulnerable with us, it has saved me more than you know. Also, I know sometimes you feel like you are dragging things on or that we don't care about the stuff you are talking about but I could literally listen to you talk about wallpaper for an hour and wouldn't be bored. You can do it babe. We love you so much❤❤
big hugs to you destiny, honestly moving when you struggle with so much anxiety and rely on others to help keep you balanced and feel safe is SO hard. i've tried and failed so many times to move bc I struggle with such bad anxiety too and you're honestly killing it already. so be patient with yourself and know that moving out for the first time is the hardest thing in the world, but you've already got your foot in the door.
Des! Your internet big sis, here. You're doing amazing, I promise you! Moving states is SO hard and this is the hardest part. It takes time to adjust. Your brain is used to one certain way of living and you're now creating new pathways with your new life changes. It's exhausting, it's hard, it's a time of grief amidst the excitement and the perfect time for anxiety to pop up. PS - anxiety can manifest when we don't sleep enough and let ourselves truly feel all of our grief in these times (I will listen to sad music when I feel a backup of sadness to let it all out and it helps with my anxiety). I learned that the hard way. These feelings are so real and so fair. Please give yourself ALL of the grace and know that just because transition/change is hard, does not mean it was the wrong decision. I've moved states twice and you grow so much through it. You'll find your community, you'll find your place in this new city, it just takes time. Hang in there. Mother yourself when you need to, get in sweats, and binge watch Netflix if you need a break. Get extra sleep (when your stomach is kinder to you). Take EXTRA EXTRA good care of yourself right now. Treat yourself in little ways every day, even if it's just one thing that brings you joy, like the perfect cup of coffee. We're cheering you on. You've got this!
Hey girl, how you are feeling is totally normal. I moved to Texas 3 years ago from the North East and the 1st year is definitely the hardest. The roads suck. There is no good Chinese food. We do not get Autumn at all. Christmas is like 75-80 degrees. It's boiling hot for most of the year. Most of all, you miss your family. That is so freaking overwhelming. But there are also so many positives to it. You live near a great city. Austin is so full of art and life. They have the best BBQ I have ever had in my life (called The Salt Lick). There are lots of plant shops in the area. The capital building is super interesting to walk through. 5th and 6th street (during the mornings, since the club scene at night is annoying) can be a ton of fun. There are lots of dog parks for Charlie if they are good with other dogs. There are a TON of book clubs and signings. You're doing all you can right now, and we are all so proud. But I promise, it will be hard but it will be okay.
Hi Des, I’m 26 and I remember feeling the exact same way when I first moved away from home from (Cali to Maryland) at 19yrs old. I desided to book a flight 1 month out just to have something to look forward to and it gave me so much comfort knowing I would be seeing my family soon 🥹😌
When my husband and I moved to Japan during his military service one the best decisions I ever made was finding a therapist to help me navigate everything going on in my life. It was my first time living outside of my family home AND overseas. To say my anxiety was debilitating is an understatement and I was leaning hard into very unhealthy coping mechanisms like isolating myself, blowing every little inconvenience into a huge deal, and even go to the point I was making myself sick with stress/anxiety. Growing can be so difficult sometimes but never forget you're never alone in that experience. 💗
Girl, I'm freshly 18, just graduated high school and am going to my community college starting fall and I just want to say how much I appreciate these videos and your vulnerability on this subjects because it's not talked about often. Even coming from a standpoint that I'm not moving from home, it's the changes that are so normalized in life but are really really scary and lonely. This video inspired me so much. Thank you so much for sharing your experience
Dessss!! ive been thinking about you since youve moved.... i know your mom and you had a huge connection and how much your family was involved in your life... i completely understand how you feel. i moved 10 minutes away from my parents and when my bf left for long work trips i would feel the same way you do 39:44. i always watched to get in my car and drive to my parents but would feel guilty about leaving my dogs so i would sit alone and watch youtube instead... lol glad we all cope the same! i hope you can find some great friends and build your new support circle!! we all love you and are so proud of you!!
Destiny thank you so so much for sharing your feelings about moving. I felt this exact same way 2 years ago when I moved 2 hours away from home. I missed my family, my dogs, my boyfriend, my friends, etc. and it felt like my life was ending. I cried every day for like 2 weeks but now I feel great and I’m living alone and made new friends and see my family and boyfriend when I can and I’ve completely adjusted. You will feel much better in a few days/ weeks. Planning out times for you/ your family to fly to visit each other and talking on the phone will help so much! You got this girl! We are all so proud of you! 💕
Thank you for showing the honest side of things ❤ as an anxious girly moving away next month I really appreciate it!
you remind me so much of myself i’m so happy to see you normalise anxiety because i am the exact same way and always feel like it’s stupid for being like that but seeing you talk about it so openly is so refreshing
your videos are so aesthetic i love watching them 🫶🏻
Sweet sweet gal! 30 year old here 👋🏼 I love your videos. You are doing great! These feelings are so normal and valid and I love that you are letting it out rather than holding it in. It is so isolating moving out and halfway across the country. Everything you’re doing right now will affect the trajectory of your 20s and going out and experiencing new things in a new city is going to be so great for you in the long run. Sending you all the good vibes and just know you are exactly where you need to be and change is HARD and good. :) always know your family is there for you with open arms! Keep up the good work I love your content ❤
It will get SO much better. I had a tough time for months and I kept telling myself that the good memories with my parents are exactly that, they are memories and it is time to create new ones in my new life and something really good to do, is to plan a visit with your family in advance. Even if it is over a month or two or three later. It will give you peace of mind and something to look forward to. You should try your best to enjoy the company around you now.
Ps, I cried with you on this video 😂 I've been out of the house for about 7 or 8 years already, and I never miss it anymore but damn that was so sad to see. But you'll see how quickly things change. Just don't force it or overthink, take it day by day.. Sending big hugs!
bestie i feel the same way about living across the country even two years after I've been away. It's totally normal and we are all so proud of you and are here for you ❤
this is such a big thing to do so either way its a pretty big achivement, i love these type of videos i legit got so excited seeing this video being 50+ minutes long. everyones so proud of you des and moving from family has gotta be so weird at first but soon you will feel settled and look forward to exciting goals ahead.
that new office looks like such a vibe at the same time its gonna be so exciting being able to live independently in your own home, a house you achieved yourself because of where you have gotten to in your life.
I ALSO WANNA SEE DAYS IN YOUR LIFE
you’re doing so great 🫶🏼 I love seeing that you’re striving to get your routine started and making your new home! Your feelings about being so far from home & alone at times are incredibly valid. I feel these things to my core and I moved away from home in Indiana to Louisiana four years ago … I still have days like this every now and then! I love seeing you do this! 💖
wow destiny, i have been following for so long and I just want to say I see so much of myself in this video. i moved from Minnesota to California and I spent the entire first day sobbing in an empty apartment. Your videos were one of those things that grounded me. Now its been nearly a year and I cant believe how quickly I have made myself a new life here. Although I miss my family so much and I think about what I could be missing out on living closer to them I see now that it is equally as special that I get to create memories of my own here. San Fransico has become a city of my own and I miss Minnesota everyday but I love all of my new experiences here. Feelings don't typically come when they're convienet so know every hiccup or cry-ses is truly just your own way of going through such a major change. Take it day by day and I promise you'll slowly start to feel better. Sending all my love
Des i also did a big move recently away from my family to a new country. It is really comforting for me seeing someone go through the same things that I am right now. I really love how authentic and real you are in your videos. It is scary being vulnerable but I really appreciate your honesty and hearing your perspective, it’s comforting. Wishing you all this best on this new chapter in your life
I watched your first moving vlog the other day and randomly yesterday I was like “ I wonder how she’s doing”! I love seeing these vlogs and I love your honesty/vulnerability! Moving is so hard! You are so incredible for taking the step!! Praying that it starts to feel more and more like home and you find people to enjoy your time with!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
I did the exact same thing as you moving out of my parents’ house and across the country for the first time. Feeling alone is valid and real. I know it’s hard to see, but I promise you will make it through! Thank you for always showing us the truth. So proud of you Des.
This really reminded me of how I felt when I first moved away from home. It takes a while but you will eventually build a new life for yourself and then you have the excitement of visits and home visits to look forward to! Then after some time you can look back and see how far you’ve come and be proud!
Love your videos Destiny! I would personally, love to see "trying out new hobbies as an adult" kind of video, a get ready with me sharing your favorite products video, decorating your new room/office video, exploring new bookstores near you video!!!!
First of all, just giving you a big virtual hug 🫶🎀💖 I’m so proud of how you’re handling all of these changes and omg I get how scary everything must be! 🥲 Thank you so much for being vulnerable with us 🩵 I appreciate your videos so much 🫶Lots of love!!!!
also I absolutely LOVE your vlogs and your routine and this more mellow days in the life content because it's just so chill & nice to have in the background in any form
Thank you for being so open with your emotions. That is so brave and we don’t take that for granted! I was so exited to see that there was another vlog of yours. Much love💋🩵
You will be ok Destiny! When I moved away I had a similar sort of crash in my feelings as well. For a while you're in planning and adrenaline mode and there's all this anticipation and then once it's over and you're done and there is no more of that planning, packing, moving - you're bound to have a bit of a crash. I think you're doing great trying to establish a new normal for yourself!
This video was so wholesome and inspiring and really encouraged me and made me feel seen about my anxiety and nervousness about moving out in the future! Thank you Des for making me feel not alone and for being vulnerable/authentic with us!!❤❤
The homesickness is so real and so valid!! You’ll get through this girl and it’s makes the time you are with them in person that much sweeter. You are spreading your wings and doing that big girl stuff that will help you grow and learn how to adult even more!
Des, you are doing so good! Moving out and away from family and to a different state is so hard but so rewarding! The emotions come in waves but it will get easier! I’m praying for you and for you to have peace during this hard transition! You are doing amazing! Keep getting out of the house and making a routine and taking in the little moments, you’ll get there. 🤍🤍🤍
I love seeing your more honest moments of moving. I also moved at the start of July and it’s amazing but stressful and emotional too. You’re the first RUclipsr I’ve seen who shows that side of it. Thank you so much. You’re going to have so much fun! You’ve got this!!
girl I moved recently and uprooted my entire life at the same age as you. And it has been really hard you aren’t alone! And these videos help me tremendously. You’ll get past this and thrive, it takes time
You talking about moving away from home made me feel soo seen because I felt those things when I moved to college. Thank for being open to talk about those things with us and know that we are soo happy for this new chapter in your life !!
These emotions are so so normal. When I moved to a different country, I was a giant massive huge mess. It’s hard. But it’s worth it. Thank you for being so vulnerable🩷
You are actually breaking my heart😭 I remember moving out of my family home and I cried for a straight week I just missed having my family present it was so jarring. Your emotions are so valid des!! Take it from it gets better and you’ll start to love your routine and get used to it, it just takes time❤️
You are so not alone in your feelings of isolation! Remember to give yourself some grace as transitions take some time especially a transition as large as you’re taking on! Try to take things one day at a time, and over time the familiarity will build. I also would recommend trying to find some local events in your new city that are relevant to your interests and try attending! Even if you don’t end up talking to anyone, sometimes it’s just nice to be around other people and learn more about your new community. Striking out on your own for the first time is such a huge step and you’re crushing it even in moments when you may not feel like it!
destiny, i relate so strongly to the emotions of moving, and found this video comforting in the fact that i am not alone. new beginnings are so terrifying!! i love how authentic and real you were in this video, and we are here to support you each step of the way. you are not alone, and your feelings are so valid. im proud of you for not pushing them down and instead feeling them all and working through that. we are all so proud of you. thank you for the authenticity because it’s rare nowadays and i feel so much more seen now 🩷 i luv u des and it’ll all be okay! ✨🩷
watching Des brings so much comfort to me because i deal with anxiety and the things i struggle with daily and are hard for me to talk about, i see Des being so open and vulnerable about it inspires me so much and probably a lot of others too. Thank you des for being you, you always have the support of all us besties! we love you des !!!❤❤❤
I totally feel you about being away from home and loved ones.
One of my greatest appreciations from going to college was moving away from home and learning how to be independent and navigate the anxieties of the world on your own.
It’s definitely scary and confusing but you will figure it out in time!
Try to find a community and get to know the area better! Find some stores that you love (like a Barnes ❤) and create a new, comfortable normal for you.
As someone who’s moving out in a few months this series is super helpful❤ sending you lots of love!
I LOVE your vlogs so much!! I would LOVE more lifestyle content!! Seeing you doing your routines and just living your day to day life not only comforts me but motivates me!
We are so grateful that you showed a vulnerable side to you and to the moving out experience for some. When I moved in with my boyfriend I was only about 15 minutes away from my mom's house. And I was very ready to move out and I had some ups and downs with my family I love them but I needed the space. When I was driving away from my mom's house to move into my boyfriend's house I started immediately sobbing uncontrollably in my car on the way there and it took me by surprise. New chapters like that and new phases of adulthood can be hard to adjust to as well as it can be hard to navigate the emotions from it. I felt so seen when you were having your vulnerable moment about moving and I'm sure others feel the same way. Thank you! Things will get easier and you will find your way i promise ☺️☺️☺️
I'm moving in August and I've been almost depressed about it for months now. Seeing you move and go through what I will be experiencing has brought comfort to me, and I know it will be okay now. You're so strong! I'm so proud of you for embracing the change even though it's a STRUGGLEEEEE. When I move I'm going to come back and watch these vlogs a million more times. Thank you for everything! ❤️❤️🫶
LOVING this new moving diaries series! I'd be so interested to see you branch out and do other content.
I will always love anything book content, but you'd do so well in creating other stuff too
We are all so proud of you Des! Personally I felt all these feelings when I moved out of my parents house to go to college… long story short but I ended up moving back halfway through the year and I have found that living at home with my parents benefits me the most. Definitely continue to feel your feelings but also feel those while utilizing therapy, journaling, hobbies, and ur support systems. 🫶💕
i felt the same way going to college. I can imagine how you feel, and it’s a lonely feeling, but you are going to do great things. You can be more independent, find yourself, and create new memories in your very own home.
You’re doing great des!! I moved out of home to live alone and it was really lonely and hard in the beginning, but it does get better. You’ll learn how to mange missing family, but give yourself grace in the mean time. You’ve got this girly x
You’re not alone. When I first moved into my new place by myself, my internet also took a few weeks to get working and I found it quite hard and lonely to start. But it didn’t take long until I got into my routine and started to adjust. I’m sure it’ll be the same for you - sending you all of the positive vibes ❤
I cry all the time on the internet girl you’re okay I think vulnerability is such an admirable trait. We are all so so proud of you - I remember moving out for college and leaving home is SO hard but it will get easier and better with time. You got this we all adore you
Totally understand about the anxiety of leaving your dog, especially in a new place. Here’s what has helped me. I have a camera on my dog. I use Petcube, but I’ve heard Furbo is good too. That way I can look at them and see that they are ok. It makes me feel better. I also have the Fi gps collar on my dogs. They leave the house I get a notification on my phone. Also, I play a dog sound machine called Pawzzz by Yoga Sleep. It has two songs/sounds that are tested and proven to calm dogs. I know it’s a lot. 😂 but it eases my anxiety about leaving them at home. Hope that helps.
you're doing so good, be patient with yourself and let yourself adapt to your new place. focus on thinking of new opportunities moving can bring you. I moved from california to the east coast, and i'm so close with my family so it was hard. I recently found a group of friends in my new town and it's really helping to adjust. it gets easier but i always miss my family. plan trips to see them and them to see you, you're doing great!
Totally would watch Animal Crossing streams!!
And Des, your feelings are so valid. You’re homesick and it’s a whole new state across the US. Just know we are here and love spending time with you even if it’s through a screen. You’re so inspirational and real. ❤ can’t wait to see your new office/book setup!
hi des! i’m in my 30s but i love watching your videos bc i feel like younger me relates to you in so many ways 🧡 i too, moved out on my own away from my family struggling with anxiety and there have been some tough times but it reallllly helped me shaped my relationship with me and my anxiety. i encourage you to dive back in to alllll of your hobbies or anything that sounds exciting! i know id love to see anything you try! sending love rooting for you in this new era 🫶
i’m so proud of you destiny. i know it’s so hard right now but your doing amazing. i’ve been through a lot of moves away from family and it’s really hard but it does get better. and i absolutely understand the feeling of them being a phone call away but it’s not the same. we love you des ❤️
I totally understand your emotions of feeling isolated. For myself, it’s essential to be close to family. Family is your community who is always there for you. Even as an adult we need each other.
Hey Des, this entire year I've been like this, adapting to a new routine after finishing high school and I understand how it can be difficult and overwhelming. I hope everyday you feel a little bit better. Thank you for sharing your feelings with us.
My days are preeetty lonely too, but I find comfort and company in your videos, especially your vlogs, so thank you very much 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
As a women’s fitness coach I LOVE to hear you discuss the topic of gym anxiety. So many women struggle with this. I always recommend grabbing some dumbbells and sticking to your own corner of the gym until you feel comfortable branching out again.
