I'm shocked to hear that you've lost subscribers over vlogmas. I've looked forward to each of your videos & found meaning in them. A successful life is measured by impacting one person (one is all it takes) in a deep & meaningful way & you have done that for me & it's obvious listening to the voice mail messages that you've done that for many others. By ANY standard, that makes you a success & marks a life well lived. You have every reason to be very proud of that.
You've said it so well Alexandra! I couldn't agree more❤
Dear Morgan, thank you for being authentic. It happened to me at work in front of my manager last week. We all have bad days, you are not alone.
Much love to you🎄🎄💜🎄🎄
I hope you’re ok
I'm sorry to hear it had to happen to you at work. I hope that you're okay and that your coworkers treated you with kindness.
It takes courage to admit in public that you are having an anxiety day. I too have anxiety and I applaud you for your strength in sharing what you struggle with. It helps so many others when a public figure shares their true emotions. You are a beautiful person and your light shines for all to see.
I want to speak from the other side, a couple of days ago a friend sent me a text message, she was spiraling about a decision she made, filled with guilt. I texted her back trying to comfort her, she ended up feeling better. To everyone in this awesome community, please trust that you can tell your friends when you feel happy but most importantly when you feel bad, when you exteriorize you feeling upset it takes power from the emotion. Sharing is caring, even if that's your time to listen a friend who's struggling.
I'm sorry... I had a meltdown too in the car driving back from a get-together with friends, it's crazy how anxiety can trigger us so hard despite what we want
It was the opposite to me, I was rethinking of going to a get-together last week, eventually I pushed myself and went and have a good time, however, I did confess to the people that I had to force myself to go because I know it was the anxiety telling to stay at home.
This reminds me of the saying that if people can’t love you at your worst, then they don’t deserve you at your best. Those bad days/ moments make the good ones shine more brightly. Thanks for being vulnerable Morgan with sharing the good and the bad. I can relate so much to your struggles ❤. Crowds and being watched in stores are both big triggers for me!
Thank you, Morgan. I have anxiety and a highly sensitive personality. My family has always judged me very harshly because of this, and I ended up having inlaws who judge and are very critical of me. My husband is very supportive and understanding, thankfully, but he cannot always stop his family from doing what they do, other than severely limiting how much time we spend with them. It has been a wound in my heart ever since I was a child, to constantly be criticized by my family (and now inlaws). Watching your video really helped me to feel understood that I am not alone and that it is ok to have these struggles. It does not mean I am a bad person or should feel ashamed of who I am.
@@brendabignall9926 sorry to hear that, wishing you a happy holiday being your own best friend
I hear you. I had a breakdown in front of them all one Christmas and it's taken me years to feel comfortable around them again and this will be the first time I spend Christmas day with some of them for many years. So hopefully you can get through it too ❤
You just fully described my situation.
@@cozeydaze I am estranged from some of them for many reasons. Others I always have an exit plan to leave if things get unbearable. I hope your Christmas goes ok.
@@lasaves3207 sorry you have to endure this too.
That was me on Hawthorne that yelled “I love your RUclips channel!” Totally was in shock that I recognized you 😆 I hope you had a great weekend!! ❤
And what are the odds that I’ve just checked my comments and have seen this!? You made my night- thank you, friend ♥️
I’ve been dealing with anxiety and was housebound for 11 months. Everyday is a struggle~ I pray there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. Thanks for your transparency:)
May you know healing , acceptance and Love
Thinking of you. Holding you in prayers and love. 🙏💖
Morgan, you are not alone. And, it would have been easier for you to just vlog the perfect moments and not the reality, but this is why your subscribers follow you and love you. Your honesty and authenticity is admirable. Life’s hard days do hit us sometimes, but also make the happiness we get from the simple little moments (I love this phrase of yours) even more so wonderful! ❤
It’s interesting the comment you made about the furniture store. Other than like ikea/pottery barn/ home goods, I don’t do well in regular furniture stores. They have that judgy stalkerish atmosphere and I hate it. It’s like they know you aren’t buying, so why even come near you, instead they just watch you
Please work less! If you need a break take one. You don’t need to do Vlogmas tomorrow or again this month, we’ll understand. You don’t need to be there for us that’s too much pressure on you. You’re not letting anyone down. Stay safe Morgan. You first please.
Girl YES I had a multi day meltdown (anxiety, then guilt, then shame, then more anxiety) on a very special trip my husband planned out last year. He spent so much money, and people were kind enough to take care of our children while we were gone, and everything we planned was fun and amazing (and expensive) and I felt so much pressure to have a great time. I just couldn't enjoy it due to anxiety that snowballed into a complete meltdown for almost the entire trip. It was awful, even though my memories of specific restaurants and things we did are good memories. I feel you, you're in good company, thank you for being honest about your experience, and it is all good when this happens ❤️
Ps i also feel extremely uncomfortable with the sun setting mid afternoon. My meltdown (above) was during the dark months last year and also at the beginning of my period. So many factors go into these uncomfortable meltdowns ❤️
🥰😇💖💌💞🙏🫂Sending you all my love and the warmest of hugs!!! I am so proud of you that you listen to your body,feelings,and i am so happy you have Landon and warm,loving understanding friends and your own soultribe!!! 🫖☕🎄🕯📓🖋⛸We love you Mo💓
Anxiety is not fun. I feel for you.🤗🥰 Big comforting hugs coming your way.
Dear Morgan, sometimes it’s not only you. The most sensitive people gets energy from places and people around and then you don’t even understand what’s going on. Good and bad energy is everywhere. Don’t worry. Everybody has bad days and times. Specially the kind and sensitive souls like you. The good thing is when you recognize it and do something about it for yourself. Lots of love ❤ Thank you for sharing the real Morgan. We love you! 🥰
Sorry! But I’m going to unsubscribe. Is your channel you can do whatever you want and talk about whatever. And I’m not trying to say that you have to be hiding your depression to people bcuz people can relate in your situation. The reason why I can’t continue is because I want to be distracted by positive, funny and adventure videos who can help me escape from my job( is not that I don’t like my job but is nice to escape ) I work in an Architecture and Engineering firm. So, sometimes it can be overwhelm of work. However, your videos used to be happy and talk about books . I’m just being real just like you have been to us. Hope you still doing your therapy lessons for depression. Wish you the Best! 💕And for those who are struggling for depression as well hope you guys are getting helped! ❤
Thank you Morgan for not putting on a false social media facade, it's so refreshing. People that do are very obvious, as we all have bad days. Life is pressurised enough without surrounding ourselves with strangers who supposedly have perfect lives. Especially this time of year. Vlogmus must be a lot of pressure. I'm sure some other youtubers I watch start filming at the end of November 😉. I had a melt down in early December and burst into tears. I'm completely disorganised this year and have a tonne of shopping left, which just makes it feel pointless. 💕 Remember to take time for yourself and relax.
I told my family no presents this year, Im tired and its just me spending money I don't really have to find things to give haha, we will meet over food and enjoy each other's company :) And I had a meltdown yesterday too, my mom came over to see the baby, my son is 3, and I got my period and was just in tears the whole day, hormones are no joke, we don't talk about that enough...I felt so embarrassed but then said to myself, oh well... you just gotta go through those emotions to come out on the other side, bottling them up is worse.
Just wanted to say how much I've been enjoying vlogmas. So much effort and time goes into this, and it does not go unappreciated 🤗
I agree :)
Thank you Morgan for being so real. I too struggle with severe anxiety and social anxiety. I do take medication for it but sometimes it can be so extreme it doesn’t seem to work well. Afterwords I can feel so low and wanting to cry. Definitely a roller coaster. I could feel what your were feeling while watching your vlog and emphasize with you. Sometimes it sneaks up on us and other times it’s a long all day battle. You truth and making it normalized to feel what one can feel is beautiful and appreciated. You’re such a sweet soul. Thank you for sharing and being transparent. It helps others such as myself to not feel alone. I wish you and your sweet family a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Take things one day as a time ❤🎄❤️
Dear Morgan, thank you so much for being vulnerable with us and authentic. ❤
The Thomas Heatherwick spun chair is designed with fun in mind. But it was uncomfortable watching you feeling uncomfortable in that store. I feel for you.
Thank you Morgan for sharing vulnerable moments and talking about your anxiety attacks.
Unfortunately I often feel exactly like you did.
and it's so frustrating because you no longer feel in control of your emotions.
I'm in my acceptance process and it was really helpful to discover through your video that I'm not the only one who feels this way.
I'm leaving you this comment in hopes of letting you know that other people have these break down moments and that you're not alone. Anyone who is reading my comment and is suffering from anxiety attacks, I want to tell you that you are not alone and that things will get better. We can do it! 🤍
Sending you a big virtual hug 🫂
I love this, thank you. It's so hard not to become your emotions, it can take such a conscious effort to get yourself to a comfortable spot mentally and physically to deal with them well. Hugs back.
Oh my goodness, I admire the strength it must have taken to edit those clips. Sometimes it’s incredibly difficult to look back on days we were feeling off. Thank you for sharing your vulnerability with us. And thank you for sharing your self-care journey after. I bet editing this was therapeutic in its own right. To anyone reading this: your feelings are valid, I believe you, and remember to take care of yourself. ❤
Morgan, you are real, you are human, you are genuine. ❤💚❤💚
I have the exact same feelings of anxiety sometimes. Especially around large groups of people. You are not alone and should never feel weird about it. Much love to you❤
Ohh, Morgan.... I have had my challenges today, and it helped to hear your words, thank you and give yourself a big hug from me 🙂
Hi Morgan,
Thank you for being so honest and being so courageous. I think i can speak from all of us, that we only love you even more for it.
Lots of love to you and your family Morgan ❤
Ohhh , I'm from Antwerp in Belgium. Nice to hear someone else in Belgium watch Morgan's videos :)
I love your videos Morgan 🧡
Morgan meltdowns are uncomfortable and as much as we think we can control them it seems perhaps they may come less often that for some , especially empaths life can trigger meltdowns. It sounds like you are doing well as you do so well keeping communication going. Some people will understand and others may never get it. I feel grateful for all of the wonderful people who get it.
I needed this today. It's my birthday today and while I've had a nice day alone and a great week with friends, I am exhausted and ending my birthday feeling quite low. And instead of thinking its a sign of a bad birthday, it's just a sign that I need rest.
Thank you for sharing this experience with us. I can understand your feelings, I have suffered from generalized anxiety disorder since I was a child, and social phobia bothers me the most. I only started being open about it about eight years ago, because you come across a lot of prejudices and negative feedback when it comes to mental illnesses that many people can't understand. It was my husband who gave me the strength to be honest with myself and others. I now set boundaries, whether for situations or people, and have made great progress. As you say, there are happy days and hard days. You are not alone with your emotions. Thank you again for reporting so openly about this day. Sending you lots of positive energy, good thoughts and a big hug ❤️
Hi Morgan, have you considered maybe things like PMDD or ADHD as the underlying cause of your emotional rollercoaster? I suffer from both and the perfectionism, anxiety, unexplainable low mood (despite having a lovely life), the guilt, the constant need to prove your worth and taking perceived failures deeply to heart are all a part of it (along with headaches/migraines, exhaustion, sensory overwhelm etc). I say this with the utmost respect and love and wish you all the best! 🥰
Happy Birthday to Landon on 12/18 wahooooooooooooooooooooooo
So excited this popped up in my notifications that I had to run to say hi
It’s ok not to be all upbeat - continue to be yourself it really is ok and what wonderful message at the end ❤
I think the vlogs you make that I love the most are when you are so very authentic during your down times. I deal with a form of agoraphobia and have for the last 4 decades. I am able to leave the house and do things but those "things" have to be in the parameters and internal boundaries I have regarding travel of any kind, even by car. It gets better and then worse; depending on my stress level in my life at the moment. I am in my 60s and am angry at myself for missing out on going places I would go if it did not involve travel. But at the same time, I have learned to accept myself for who and what I am and I know how I got this way. The hardest part is finding friends who will put up with this. I was warmed by the loving reaction of your friends to your needs yesterday. All I could have done with the list of things you set out to accomplish with them, would have been the lunch. We all struggle, whether we admit it to ourselves or not. Toxic positivity can be so hurtful and unproductive when it is used as a criticism towards another for NOT being positive or happy every minute or even daily or weekly. We all need mercy and kindness when we are in a scary place, mentally or emotionally. Thank you so much.
Thank you for everything this Christmas. It have been a worst one for me with everyday panic attacks and fast heart beats, ER... i felt so alone, sad and depressed and watching you and listening messages at the end, helped me a lot. I know im not alone. Thanks for your honesty, you guys kept me going ❤❤❤.
Big hugs friend ❤❤❤
@@kaiju_k5042 thank you ❤️❤️🥰🥰
Sending you love and hugs 💜💜💜
@@Thecottagebookworm ❤️❤️❤️ that means a lot, thanks
Wow, thank you Morgan for always being so honest and vulnerable. Your life seems like such a fairytale but yet even you struggle with anxiety and low feelings. It makes me feel less guilty myself that you struggle with this too. And the setting sun! Oh! I struggle with a low feeling right as the sun sets too (especially in winter), so it's very validating to hear /you/ speak of it. You - one of the most charming, bubbly, and peaceful personalities I know. ❤
Continue to give yourself grace, your last vlog you spoke of it being that time of the month... PLUS a lack of quality sleep... oof. Hormones can be a nasty cocktail for bad feelings. When I experienced postpartum, coupled with learning to breastfeed all the while being majorly sleep deprived? I cried every. single. day. last October.
We are human. Some days we just are going to feel out of whack. Instead of letting it ensnare us and panic us, we just need to realize it will pass. Tis the glory of tomorrow always being a day away. 😉
I feel like I needed to hear this today. I'm feeling flat at the moment, there's a few factors, going to work in the dark & coming home in the dark. I'm ready for a break. Also suffering from a little anxiousness, we have a works Christmas party on Thursday evening, even thought I'm looking forward to it, I have a really pretty dress which I can't wait to wear and the location is lovely, as a highly sensitive person I find social occasions draining & like you I'm hard on my self. Thank you for sharing how your feelings it helps us feel like we are not alone. X
GOOD AFTERNOON MORGAN! YEAH I COULD RELATE TO YOUR FEELING UNWELCOME IN A STORE! I HAVE LIVED HERE IN MISSISSIPPI NOW FOR OVER 10 YEARS AND I STILL FEEL VERY UNWELCOME😢 I WAS GOING TO THIS ONE CHURCH THAT I'VE WALKED TO AND I FELT NERVOUS AND UNWELCOME 😢 BUT I KEPT GIVING IT A TRY BUT I'M NOT DOING IT NOW PEOPLE ARE HAVING THEIR OWN GROUPS GOING ON! AND FEELING ALONE I'VE BEEN THAT WAY FOR SOME TIME! BUT I HAVE SOME LITTLE THINGS THAT I DO TO HELPS ME! READING BOOKS! THANK YOU FOR SHARING IT'S GREATLY APPRECIATED! IT'S KINDA NICE TO KNOW THAT OTHER PEOPLE GO THROUGH WHAT YOU'RE GOING THROUGH SO YOU'RE NOT ALONE! ONE THING I DO MISS IS HAVING MY CERTAIN BATHS! THANK YOU FOR COMING THROUGH WITH ANOTHER VIDEO TODAY❤ HAPPY BIRTHDAY LANDON! HAVE A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY 🎈🎂 AND BEST WISHES TO YOU 🥳🎉 WATCHING MORGAN EATING A POMEGRANATE IS CHALLENGING❤ LOVE WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS THAT ARE SO INSPIRING AND COMFORT! MORGAN YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY AND THE REST OF THE WEEKEND! LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT VIDEO ☺️
Only I want to hug you. You are valid 💜✨
So many people in this community have already written such helpful and supportive comments. I will just say sweet friend that you are allowed to feel your feelings on your bad as well as your good days. You do not have to apologize for those sad or negative feelings. Your true friends will only feel empathy/protectiveness towards you and your vulnerability. Sending you the biggest and warmest hug! You are not alone oh wonderous you. Keep being authentic and the beautiful sunbeam that you are to the world.
Thank you Mo for being so authentic, sometimes a day doesn’t go how you planned and when you don’t feel great it can be hard to verbalise why. You have been honest and acted with grace and I am so proud of you my dear friend ❤❤❤
❤ Real is sooo refreshing. ❤️
Constantly pushing through is completely unrealistic. Let’s normalize real. Sending hugs back to you 💕
Hi Morgan, thank you for being so candid about your anxiety. You are definitely not alone. I've been struggling a lot the past couple of years. I have a chronic illness and an anxiety disorder that have become worse, leading me to be essentially homebound. It is so hard, especially around the holidays, to not be able to go out the way I used to, and to have to say no to people because I'm so overwhelmed. Thank you for reminding us that it's OK to be our authentic selves even when we are low. It's not an easy thing to do, but I'm working on it. God Bless you and Landon and I hope you have a wonderful Christmas, Maria ❤️
The holidays really do this to me, too. I love Christmas time but I feel so incredibly anxious with all of my to-dos that it’s hard to actually have a good time with friends. You’re not alone.
I'm always conflicted about giving unsolicited advice, especially to strangers online lol, but I decided to offer this to anyone who might be interested: I've recently started somatic therapy and it has been the MOST AMAZING game changer for my mental/emotional wellbeing! I've done talk therapy before, and still do, but oh my goodness, the addition of somatic practice has improved my anxiety & depression 10x more! I recommend finding a somatic therapist/practitioner area if you can, or you can find resources online/in books. Sending love, hugs & best wishes to everyone! 💖❄⛄
You're an awesome, amazing woman. Although you could be my daughter, I really do learn a lot from you and love to watch your videos. Especially the vlogmas is superb. Keep up your good work, and please be always your wonderful self. I wish you, Landon, and Mr. Rue, a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Greetings from Germany, Claudia. ❤
You are human and loved and enough.
We judge ourselves so much. If we were to be happy all the time there would be no contrast to learn from. We are here to expand and when we allow ourselves to be and not hold onto our stories….we grow. You cheer everyone up and now it’s our turn. You are loved and not judged, we are all in this together. ❤ We love you Morgan! ❤
This is a bit late, but I tend to run behind everyone else in society lol. I just couldn't help empathising with this so much. I'm autistic, and having reactions like this are VERY common for people like me. Sensory overwhelm, anxiety, discomfort at whatever environment. Things not going as planned. We do not take unexpected changes well, lol. The weather, the day being too short. Whatever. Totally normal, and OK. It builds up, and then can lead to 'meltdown'. It's lovely that your friends were so understanding. I typically get the opposite. People always bully me, and guilt trip me, and I can't even control it, because it's how I was born. But you know, it's completely OK to feel like this sometimes. The fact is, even non autistic people feel overwhelmed, it's just the way our society is designed now, that makes it hard for a lot of people, even if they don't necessarily realise certain things are 'triggering' them. Everything from sounds, lighting, things not going as planned, too busy, crowds, fast, stressed, distracted, whatever it is. Many people react to these things. We don't need to feel bad about it.
I'm so glad that you embrace it being OK to not be happy, and positive ALL the time, and to express the whole range of emotions. I'm all about being authentic, and vulnerable, even though it feels scary. Otherwise, it is like we are going around performing all the time, and this is exhausting at the best of times, but for someone like me, it literally is draining, and I just can't function that way. It's like having to do small talk, when all you want is real conversations. It feels actually painful, and then I just opt to withdraw from society instead if that's what I am forced to have to deal with. In our community, it's called 'masking', and we do this in an attempt to fit in, even if we don't realise we are doing it.
🎄🎄Morgan - thank you for sharing your true self - no one is perfect, even those of us that don't suffer from anxiety. I would hope that true friends are sensitive to those that do have these feelings and moments and allow the space for that to happen, anxiety doesn't make an appointment. We don't all have perfect days and you have to let them play out - and grow from that. We don't expect to see a happy Morgan in every video - that's not life! but I think you are such a love to share ALL those feelings... you are L♥V E D --- KNOW that! sending you hugs... still wishing you, Landon and RoO a very 🎄Merry Christmas 🎄🥰 catching up on your vlogmas videos - have been away visiting family from afar. Jacqueline
Awww man..its going to be okay Morgan…. So much of sudden outbursts are unacknowledged feeling and unexpressed that we don't catch on a daily basis… I would highly recommend Heart minded by Sarah blondin.….a sanctuary of heart healing balm chapters and meditations for the soul…. Sending love and healing your way❤
Workbooks like 30 Days to Reduce Anxiety by Harper Daniels, and The Power of Now by Tolle, helped me with this type of thing.
I just want to give you the biggest hug!! ❤️Bless your heart … I’ve had those anxious meltdowns, too, and all you can do is ride them out and know that they will pass. But when you’re in the middle of it, it’s just miserable. Thank you for sharing it with us, though. Your vulnerability is such a gift to others and I’m sure it helps far more people than you know! ❤️❤️❤️ Wishing you joy in abundance in these last few days of the Christmas season! ❤️🎄❤️
Everyday is not a good day.. everyday is not happy. Life is difficult. Which makes the good so Good. Your channel is great! Better to be yourself; this is what makes your channel. I know that life is hard; but I also know that tomorrow is a new day. Thank you for your honesty.
Honestly, sometimes you just need a good cry! You've been working so hard with these daily videos on top of your normal workload, it's no wonder the stress built up in some way and finally released. Glad you were around good people who accepted and helped you and you were able to have a relaxing evening.
Aww Morgan thank you for sharing this, you take care of so many others and all of us here on YT/Patreon with your uplifting content but you also need to be taken care of, I hope we can do that for you a little ❤ sending you the biggest hugs❤. You're so authentic and have such integrity, I look up to you not because you're perfect, I dont even like that word sometimes as its so unrealistic to anyone or anything, but because you're not afraid to be you and live your life, the good the bad and the ugly and the gorgeous :P It's hard being young in this fast moving world, you have to figure things out so fast while you're spinning in so many directions, what took people decades is months now. Love you girl, thank you for this amazing month of Vlogmas, you're a rockstar, please know that ! ❤
Hi Morgan, your vlogmas has been really sweet this year and I appreciate having something cozy to put on while my daughter naps. We moved out of Portland in May and I have been really missing the wonderful Christmas vibes in the city. For those out there working with anxiety: I was vegan for many years and I used to really struggle with anxiety and severe panic attacks. Adding ghee and butter into my diet really helped me, and now when I feel "frazzled" for "no reason", I focus on eating some kind of healthy fat. I think its important to remember that our mood can sometimes be our body's way of alerting us to deficiencies, which can be caused by everything from poor absorption, weather changes, too much glucose, and just simply not eating enough of something! I have especially learned this through pregnancy and breastfeeding. Of course we will still have great and not-so-great days, but I think it helps to take the burden off our "mindset" and offer a remedy for the bad days. Merry Christmas!
Dear Morgan, I understand you very much because my child ( a teenager girl ) lives with anxiety and I had a lot of anxiety when I was young. But with the age, this problem has become less heavy even if it does not disappear. I learnt that I can live with and I manage to find peace and calm in myself with a lot of things that I love ( your videos for exemple!). Excuse- me for my English but I am Italian . Kisses from Italy....with love from Paola and her little girl Aurora.
I have 1000 percent been there. I'm glad your friends are understanding and comforting, that's always important.
Sweet Morgan, thank you for sharing your hard day so honestly. I definitely have anxious, emotional, "off" days just like that and it can be so hard to feel you're letting others down. True friends understand though, and I'm glad yours did. I really appreciate your genuineness and not always painting a "perfect" picture of your life. Sending hugs and hoping today has been much better for you. ❤
Thank you for sharing. It helped me feel better about when anxiety hits me over the head.
Dear Morgan, you are right, it is ok to feel....well everything.
It's easy to become overwhelmed when a plan doesn't come to fruition.
When you wake up off...every small thing that glitches adds to that off. What may have been just slight now becomes a chaos.
It's like a little snow pebble at the top of a mountain.
Anticipation for such a great day, but that little pebble starts to move down hill and keeps growing and growing until....melt down.
We all have those days. When you have those days in front of others it is embarrassing BUT when you have them in front of others who love you...there is where it is different. Because there is love. And love conquers all.
So sending much love to you my dear. Thank you for allowing yourself to be vulnerable with the community, so that we can also feel comfortable being vulnerable 🥰
I had a very long day. Afterwards, I went Christmas shoping for my family after work and, well, it made me feel very depressed. Not even a bit happy or festive, but sad and, well, guilty. I love getting presents for my family and friend, I should be happy, right, because I am able to afford it, but I felt guilt instead. About people being killed in wars, environment, poverty, everything. And a lot of fear for the future. Your vlog made me feel better and less "weird", thank you ❤b
Hello from France ! Thank you Morgan for this very inspiring video ! By sharing this difficult moment with us you showed us that it’s simply normal to be human. Lots of love to you, Landon and Monsieur Roo and everyone here in this wonderful community ! ❤
lack of sleep, getting off routine, artificial lighting and feeling judgment, crowds of people, an early sunset -- these things are human experiences that def raise anxiety for people who are sensitive - people who many years ago would have been the "alerters" in the tribe or community that something was amiss, protecting the others. Our bodies know these experiences aren't natural, and while many people (maybe most) can ignore those feelings or are desensitized to them, people with anxiety are simply more in tune.
Accept instead of resist it, push through a little as to not reinforce the fear, use your coping skills, and forgive yourself.
I feel you Morgan. I have anxiety for places I do not know, and when I arrive somewhere unfamiliar with many people, I feel so uncomfortable. Especially when I am on my own (which happens quite often as a single mom). I am so glad that Landon and your friends where there to comfort you. Thank you for sharing these moments with us.
The process of being okay with not being happy...yes yes yes. Loving the messages at the end of each video
I am the exact same way.!!! Thank you for showing us we are not alone :)
Daily vlogmas postings put a lot of pressure on you, dear Morgan, and I appreciate how one feels the need to push through even when not feeling great. Still, give yourself some grace. It is amazing how a bit bath in candlelight can give you a different if not new perspective. I find chocolate also helpful at those times. We don't expect you to always be happy so don't put that expectation on yourself, please. It has always been helpful to me in situations similar to what you experienced to tell myself: This , too, shall pass. I hope you got a good night of sleep🎄🎄🌲🌲🙏🙏
Thank you for sharing how you were feeling that day and how you dealt with it.
Yes, being uncomfortable and crying can be embarrassing but you shouldn't feel like that. We don't always feel bright and cheerful and that is fine.
Take care of yourself.
Hi Morgan, I had a really bad anxiety attack last week (that was preceded by dizziness). I spent all day on the couch watching Christmas specials and felt so guilty, not just about resting all day but about my anxiety attack too. I always seem to forget to rest, especially during this season. I hope you have a happy rest of the holiday season.
This really spoke to me as something very similar happened to me a few months ago. Just THANK YOU for being so transparent about it ❤

Happy birthday Landon! I love watch you in videos 🤗❤️ strong couple ❤❤❤
Hey Mo, I'm sorry to hear that you had a bad day and that you're feeling guilty about how the day turned out. Thank you so much for being brave and sharing it with us. The world is full of images and videos of the ideal, it's precious seeing the reality and also how you treated yourself afterwards - doing work, taking a bath and spending time with Landon and Roo just chilling. It's so valuable to see and I hope it will inspire and help others to learn what would help them heal and and work through tough emotions.
I agree with you full heartedly, we are humans and are ment to feel our feelings!
Sending you a huge hug your way!
Hope you're feeling loved and at peace.
Hi Morgan ! I can relate to you in those days where you're supposed to feel Joy but insted I feel ovearwhealmed, I can make you the suggestion to read the 5 wounds that keep you from being yourself. That book let me understand and help myself in a such beautiful way and I think it can do it for you too❤ Thanks for being human, Mo
THE WORSE LIFE TREATS ME THE BETTER I TREAT MYSELF ☺️ I TRY TO RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS VERY NECESSARY TO BE YOUR OWN BEST FRIEND AND SPOIL 💐 YOUR SELF WITH 🥛🍪 KINDNESS, ☕️ ACCEPTANCE AND ❤️ LOVE 🥰 ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU NEED IT THE MOST‼️🥂🍾🛁🍫🕯📻🎼
I can totally relate. Sometimes the buildup to a "perfect day" is almost overwhelming. And then it comes crashing down. While I am sorry this happened, I appreciate you sharing. And you always find a way to find a positive perspective on situations. That is most appreciated as well. 🙂
I am sure that your hormones were to blame for your feelings Morgan. Your lovely friends, and Landon are there to support you, even when you are feeling low. Thank goodness for those folk around you, who love you, including Ruo of course. xxx
Have you had ur vitamin levels checked? Sounds like you need to take a ton of Vitamin D and some Magnesium. People tend to try to blame themselves for mental health issues that are really physical health issues. Try taking a high dose Vitamin D (with k2) every day for a week and see how ur feeling.
Thanks for sharing your experience, I also have been there… I’m sending you Warm hugs 🧸 We love you too🤍🕊️
Thank you for being real and authentic, Morgan. It is refreshing and helpful. You are awesome.
There has been so much to be with at this time. Numerous losses in our family in one month's time, and coming here to be with you and this community is such a gift. I know also, that our planet is going through shifts, which impact our bodies. Informing (it is science, not magic), that the Earth is experiencing solar Class X flares, which means that our bodies are impacted. We experience loss of sleep, anxiety, the jitters, irritability, and more. We think We are the problem. We aren't. We are recalibrating with the solar energies coming in so much stronger than we can comprehend. Not to say our emotions are false, and how we experience them should not be. But to say that educating ourselves to the scientific fact that we are changing because the energies of the Earth are changing helps. Feeling all our feelings, in our vulnerability, with others is a lesson for us, and you are such a beautiful teacher Morgan! I feel so blessed to be with you in all of this through your beautiful contributions here!
Sometimes the aches and pains that a good Epson salt bath in the dark are relieved by can be what eventually adds to the overwhelm. It's so funny how we put off these "self care" items when they are so important to come back to a steadier baseline.
Love your permission slip at the end. I've definitely been embracing feeling the sadness when it comes, I'd rather it not bottle up and build up beyond something small and something I can handle quickly.
Yay! I just sat down to work on a craft and was wondering what I should watch :)
I get really bad social anxiety too, it hits at random times. Hugs 💞
Dear Morgan, You seem like a beautiful sensitive person in and out. The store seemed like half a museum exhibit. The chair did not fit the environment. The wabble chair invoked the feelings of the inner child. I can imagine you felt like you were naughty children in a fancy place.
I find from experience that people who smile all the time are not haapy. It is not normal to go around every day witha fake smile. It's ok to be sad, and when you try to fake it, it really shows. Lot of hugs !!❤❤❤
Your videos mean so much to me Morgan. I love how honest and authentic you are and how you’re open about your anxiety. I suffer a great deal from anxiety and it helps to know that others are feeling the same feelings. I love that you said we don’t have to be positive or happy all the time. This is so true…it just makes us human and we’re so beautiful for it. Thank you again for sharing this ❤
Hi Morgan thankyou for sharing your story of yesterday and I love how you said you are enough so glad your doing better Infact I almost cried today at the shop thinking about someone close to me who suffers from social anxiety and depression myself have been through it ..Bless you take care of you 🙏💖.
Thank you for being natural and authentic about anxiety. There are some days that anxiety appears and we don't know why. When this happens to me, I try to go to bed early, read a good book, and watch one of your videos. They are a good remedy ❤ Thank you so much!
Thank you for being so vulnerable and authentic. Anxiety is never discussed enough. You are not alone alone ❤️
Thank you for sharing this, for being authentic, for being vulnerable. I can only imagine how hard it must’ve been to put this out there, but please know that it is really appreciated. ✨
Morgan
You do not need to apologise at all for being overwhelmed and anxious, you are human and we all have those days. Landon and your friends were there and made it all right. Big hugs from Perth Western Australia , my thoughts and prayers are with you my dear friend Kylie xox
Thank you for being so open with us Morgan! You’re not alone in what happened that night out. I’ve also had times where everything starts to hit you at once and sometimes the only thing you can do is let it out. It’s definitely scary when other people are in the crossfires when it happens but I’m so glad it was around friends who support you. Hope you’re feeling okay and you continue to take time to cherish you and your mental health during a crazy time of year!
I have ADHD so meltdowns are in my profile. I try to enjoy the holidays but they stress me out .I hate them .I only like seeing family, my brother , sister in law ans neice and nephew.
You vlogmas has kept me going today so Thank you for being such an amazing light even when you don't think you are. 💖
Thank you for sharing. I, too, have struggled with these same feelings. It's comforting to know that I am not alone❤
