difficulty or inability to adjust when things don’t go according to plan isn’t a weakness, it’s just a natural autistic brain thing. Never beat yourself up about it ❤it’s the other side of the coin to why hyperfocus works so great- because when things *do* go to plan, you can enter such a fulfilling “flow state”. Not to dismiss your frustration at all though. And how awful awful awful feeling stuck is. ❤
this happens to me too! it's the little things: when I can't find matching socks, when we're out of snacks, when I can't ride the bus to school in the morning
I'm the complete reverse: heat makes me angry. My favourite seasons though are Autumn and Spring because days are a bit longer and the temperature's mild which is great for me haha
I loved how you pointed out the scam of self-help books…they always tell you something is wrong, but never how to go about fixing it…and if there IS something to be done, it is always an individual effort, rather than a systemic problem that is solved in the context of a community of people 🤔
The amount of times I’ve rewatched literally ALL of your videos to help me relax before I (attempt) to sleep as a fellow chronically ill person is ABHORRENT. I loved your surviving a day section, thank you for all of the effort that you put in, even when you’re not feeling hot. Keep trying to put yourself first and prioritise your health!!!
i felt like oatmeal pain! i also really struggle with unanticipated changes to my routine/plans (i.e., out of oatmeal), and when you’re already in a slump little setbacks like that can really put you out of commission for the next couple of hours. i’m glad you got your oatmeal in the end
Dude YES YES YES. Spite and lying to myself are so key. With my ADHD, also getting screened for ASD currently but my ADHD is confirmed.. I get stuck, or in waiting mode, SO often and it makes me feel worse about myself because according to all ‘accounts’ I should be fine. But my brain just refuses to move. It wants the ‘right’ or ‘correct’ conditions, the routine, and when those plans get altered, ERROR 404: function not found. Thank you for this, thank you for your honesty, much love and peace to you 🖤
The getting stuck when your plan doesn’t work even if it’s the smallest thing. I feel this so deeply. I pouted this morning because the library isn’t open Sundays and I was so upsetty spaghetti.
Watching this while slumped after a day of wanting to thrive but only really surviving...I wish you better days going forward, but it is comforting to see you being honest about bad days, especially when facing tomorrow feels impossible x
I'm sooooo ready for the winter to be over, especially when you live in the city and there's practically no snow to make the outside world pretty, it gets really dark and gray and depressing... can't wait for the days to get longer and sunnier and warmer! ☀
The lying to yourself tip really hit home. I’ve been trying to find a way to articulate it to my husband because I get overwhelmed with house chores easily so thank you!
For real tho, grate the carrots finer with a grater, add tahini, lemon juice, turmeric, cumin mash it like a fork into a paste and eat it on crackers or bread. It’s so yummy.
Something like the oatmeal happened to me recently! We were out of ramen, and my dad went to get food and the entire time in my head, I was like "but I PLANNED to eat RAMEN" I hate last-minute plan changes, they are UPSETTING
I find it hard to adjust to made plans as well. I think that's due to me not feeling being good enough and I always feel like I have to do more, be better, make less mistakes and sometimes I only can seem to make it wrong. I've been having a rough couple of weeks as well since going to a therapist for the first time in my life and now all those new realisations or observations hit me and my emotions are all over the place... Right now it doesn't really seem like a thing I will survive in a day. But I know why I'm doing it. And maybe being part of the pocket pages community will help me heal a bit. So far I've been enjoying my time there since Friday and am looking forward to reading gathering Moss.
gosh i’ve never felt so seeeennn!!! whenever things don’t go according to plan, specifically around food or meals, i also mope and get stuck! it’s a hard cycle but that’s show biz baby! thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing so authentically! it makes me feel less alone in my day to day struggles! and i am sure helps so many others feel the same. YOU’RE RAD!! ✨✌🏼🌷💗
15:45 this section i could relate so much, is just so hard to do anything when u didn’t get to do what u where planning to do in the first place and reorganizing in the middle of the day… i just get so lost that i don’t do anything. If i get to do the basics like eat and take a shower is already to much
I also struggle a lot when things don't go to my plan and I thought the oatmeal thing was kinda funny in a coincidental way, because lately my routine has been oatmeal and coffee for breakfast everyday, but one day that routine got unexpectedly broken and I was thrown off for hours!
When you started to talk about being in a funk, not wanting to do things you normally like to do and doom strolling, I'm so glad it's not just me. I'm going to start practicing doing things out of spite 😂
I really liked the four agreements. It was such a simple book but so complex in the same time. The language was very easy but every word and it helped me a lot.
love how real you are. My routine stoped happening 16 years ago, I have two girls and let me tell you there is no routine. lol Every time I try to make a routine it's totally interrupted by the needs of the peeps around me. But I learned to let go and go with the flow and hang in there. It is so hard sometimes. Yes two the fingers up! Love it!
Yup to having several days of not sleeping well, the pain has been on some ish lately and haven't been reading bc can't focus so just been watching RUclips, kpop videos and some shows here and there. I do want to read tho bc I went through my books and wiped down my shelves and made a donate pile, so everything I have I'm excited about reading soon. Thanks for always being real about where you're at, it reminds me I'm not alone and there's a bunch of us out here going from surviving to thriving on a regular basis. ✨️
Your channel is my current favourite cozy corner of the internet (and world). Your taste in books seems to match mine so well and it means I will have endless stream of book recommendations from you 😊 Came for books, stayed for the coziest vibe ❤
I just read the Four Agreements also and I agree with all of your critiques! All of his weird examples I was like ...really? Although, I think the gossip one was more about someone lying about people versus actually spreading useful info, which is what gossip is good for! It's a very male take to think gossip is just to cause drama and not actually for survival sometimes. Also, don't know if youre looking for a new carrot salad recipe, but we make ours with a dressing of oil, lemon juice and ginger, and then top it with parsley, chopped almonds and candied dates!
I woke up with a migraine today so I sought out some comfort content, decided to rewatch old videos videos of yours and it's absolutely what I needed ❤ If you still read comments I hope you know how much comfort and solidarity you've brought chronically ill folks by making content of you just existing as a person in this world who has struggles and joys and talks about it all with openness and compassion. I hope your health has improved during your time away and you are resting and finding joy as much as possible 🫂❤️
I worked with a functional diagnostic nutritionist a few years ago and I remember back then, she told me to make raw carrot salad, and IMO it tastes best with good olive oil, ACV, fresh ground peppercorns and I use Maldon salt as well! My mouth is literally watering thinking about it 😂😂
Okay, hi. I just came here to say that if you like the concept of the carrot salad you should try grating the carrots into smaller pieces and mixing them with equally small apple gratings. Put a bit of lemon juice in there and they won't turn brown plus it makes a lovely seasoning. OR you can mix the carrot gratings with yoghurt (trust me, it tastes better than it sounds. Though tastes are subjective especially for us neurospicy humans so idk there is always a chance you might hate it sorry) and add some spices and oil. My Mom always made these when I was little and they make for a lovely salad/side dish or dessert. Anyway, loved the video as always. Thank you for creating a safe space that feels very healing and comforting. Wishing you more days of joy and less days of pain ❤ much love ✨
The whole idea of 'manifesting' has always given me an icky feeling. It reminds me of televangelists telling people that they wouldn't be sick or poor if they just prayed harder. But I guess with the example that you use, I can see how someone could approach it in a way that is basically just cognitive behavioural therapy. Because of my OCD, I know I have to be extra careful when it comes to magical thinking (most therapists and psychologists will advise patients with OCD to avoid anything to do with manifesting), but I'm all for setting goals, surrounding yourself with what inspires you, and having a growth mindset!
ally!!✨everytime i go to barnes & noble, i pass by this book and the title makes me think of your love for pigeons LOL thought you might wanna check it out: Unseen City: The Majesty of Pigeons, the Discreet Charm of Snails & Other Wonders of the Urban Wilderness 💕
Thank you so much for sharing your reality and helping others on the way 💚 I have been on survival mode like the whole month and was starting to feel stuck and absolutely overwhelmed... Thank you for filling our days with hope and with that warmth of yours!
I’m so over winter. It’s still yucky snow and cold here in Buffalo, NY but I did hear the birds chirping yesterday and almost cried because it reminded me of spring…..so close yet so far…
my comfort youtuber at this point🐌💝 I appreciate you being so real about your life and showing all aspects! the lack of oatmeal would have made me spiral and do nothing as well and when you admitted that I felt so seen lol
I also get migraines. You could be very different from me, but I wanted to share some of the things that cause mine and what helps in case it might help you! Eating chocolate is one of my triggers, as well as not eating and too much stimulation. Chocolate was easy for me to cut out bc there are so many sweets I prefer to chocolate. Not eating was tough bc I get hyper focused on tasks and forget to eat, so I have to schedule regular meal times. If I know I'm going to be doing a task that I won't wanna pause for food during I make sure I have snacks with me. For the stimulation - I make sure to wear sunglasses when I'm going to be in a bright space, which is normally outside, but also sometimes when I'm somewhere that has big windows that let a lot of light in (note - overcast days also REALLY mess with my brain so I also make sure to wear them on overcast days too). I have black out curtains on all of my windows for when I'm feeling overstimulated I can cut out more lights. Scents also over stimulate my brain into migraine mode and I haven't found a way to deal with it other than unscented everything. Scented laundry detergent makes me so incredibly ill. I used to get them multiple times a week, but now I get them every couple of months.
Random advice lobbed from the internet: Carrots, cut into 1/2" diagonal chunks, roasted with a tiny bit of olive oil and sumac seasoning is probably the closest you'll ever get to the divine. I may be overstating that a bit, but if you want carrots that don't have to be peeled with that peeler that had me cringing the whole time and watching through my fingers to make sure you didn't de-glove your wrists with it -- sumac. Find you some sumac and roast 'em. Yum. :D
I've been sick all January and powering through my 9-5 has been taking all my energy which means I have felt in SUCH a funk about all other aspects of my life. I'm still sick but I began to slowly pick myself up this weekend, thank you for bringing the gentleness I needed to my Sunday evening ❤️
This is the first time I’ve watched a vlog so close to it being posted because it was a perfect time to watch!! I usually have to save them to savor it and watch at the right time
needed this so bad! got myself out of the Funk (tm) temporarily by finding a new favourite book but I can feel myself slipping back now :((( (the book was all four quarters of the moon by shirley marr, its a 9-12 kids book but it somehow made me cry??? incredible, 10000/5 stars)
Didn’t watch your video last night because of work so today I have the time to do it and the best part is that I can watch it on my birthday 🥳 (I yawned with you 14:12) Thoughts and prayers for Alex❤️ I love that you always say “take your time” to yourself I love that I always fell better because of that, thank you for your video and making my day better
Alli there are a lot of variations to make the carrot salad more interesting! I like the namasu version (like daikon w/ carrots but in this case only carrots lol), or you can make it with a splash of soy sauce, sesame oil and lemon juice OR if you are not feeling like mixing anything just add some sesame dressing. The carrots are still raw so it should work for what you want! C: (I unironically love carrots so I’ve found a few ways to eat it that make me feel more “accomplished” than just chomping on the carrot by itself lmao)
2:16 i can get behind beet juice!! a couple of years ago my iron was reaaaaalllyyyy low and my anemia was at its ✨ peak ✨ and all of my dominican tias were screaming at me to drink beat juice i hated the taste but hallelujah after a couple of weeks samantha went back to the doctors and her iron was still low but she wasn’t anemic anymore!! my oxygens levels are also low ( question mark ?? like what i breath everyday ) and i’ve been trying to incorporate beets 2:16 into my diet more 🔅🔅
11:28 a real pet peeve of mine is when authors write a super profound philosophical paragraph about sth, and im like: yeah i agree that is so well put, you really understand life! and then .. they end the paragraph with "and thats why God". like. no, this isnt what im looking for, why is this your conclusion to every thought?? maybe i need to stop reading les miserables lol, victor hugo is really bad with this! :D
I’m glad I (accidentally) saved this video until today because I’ve had a crappy day and needed this! Like you drinking the juice from the funnel? Day is all better now 😂
Another amazing video from a phenomenal individual! Alli’ you make me smile every time I see a vlog. Thank you for being so inspiring and thank you for making my book collection continue to grow. Continue shining and striving! ❤️
HEY ALLY!! I hope I can give you a hug as a thanks today!!!! I've been feeling BETTER finally so I've come to catch up with your videos :) Love you so much thanks for the good vibes!
I love your videos, especially vlogs like this! I’m not a big fan of Sundays but I always look forward to your uploads 💙 may we continue to survive and thrive even when life gives us shitty days!!!
I literally ration these vlogs so I can watch them over time in order to live in your comfort for longer
I’m glad I’m not alone in this 🫶
Same❤
SAMEEE
Yep, same here!

Carrot salad feels like a year of the rabbit conspiracy. 🐰 🥕 ✨

Girl Eats Carrots is my favorite show
Thank you for the comment on how that bowl of carrots was a snack not a meal 🥺🙌🏽
wake up babe, ali posted a new vlog
The throwback to The Artist's Way - I lost it. My therapist recommended it to be toward the end of our relationship. Unrelated, promise.
i felt like oatmeal pain! i also really struggle with unanticipated changes to my routine/plans (i.e., out of oatmeal), and when you’re already in a slump little setbacks like that can really put you out of commission for the next couple of hours. i’m glad you got your oatmeal in the end

The snails make me sooooo happy
as an oatmeal for breakfast every day or ELSE person... i feel seen and heard

I think winter is a great time to rest, reflect, recharge and then spring is time to bloom and be new. But that being said I miss sunshine 😂
I have never felt so seen. If my breakfast does not go according to plan, the day is off.
Haha I relate to the oatmeal ordeal so much! If even the smallest part of my plan falls a part, I fall apart 😅 glad I’m not the only one!
Girl eating carrots has definitely been the highlight of my day 🐰
I worked with a functional diagnostic nutritionist a few years ago and I remember back then, she told me to make raw carrot salad, and IMO it tastes best with good olive oil, ACV, fresh ground peppercorns and I use Maldon salt as well! My mouth is literally watering thinking about it 😂😂
Surviving days ❤
a new ally video awakens me from my hibernation every sunday
the little dance parties in your vlogs are so cute !!! 😭
That little dancing moment made me smile so wide with true and pure joy, what a lovely little moment to share ☺️

Just keep swimming friends ❤ winter is tough

I have been on survival mode like the whole month and was starting to feel stuck and absolutely overwhelmed... Thank you for filling our days with hope and with that warmth of yours!

Random advice lobbed from the internet: Carrots, cut into 1/2" diagonal chunks, roasted with a tiny bit of olive oil and sumac seasoning is probably the closest you'll ever get to the divine. I may be overstating that a bit, but if you want carrots that don't have to be peeled with that peeler that had me cringing the whole time and watching through my fingers to make sure you didn't de-glove your wrists with it -- sumac. Find you some sumac and roast 'em. Yum. :D
love the Animal Crossing music background
I've been sick all January and powering through my 9-5 has been taking all my energy which means I have felt in SUCH a funk about all other aspects of my life. I'm still sick but I began to slowly pick myself up this weekend, thank you for bringing the gentleness I needed to my Sunday evening ❤️
IT’S A VLOG!!!! oh, you don’t know how happy this makes me! 🎉🎉🎉💗💗💗💗
Winter is so hard. I have been in a funk as well, especially the last few days. Your videos help!
Its always a pleasure to spend my internet time here 🥰🥰
You're truly becoming my comfort watch
Going to try the “spite method” for my early morning alarm tomorrow, wish me luck lol
hope you’re having better days, your vlogs fill me with serotonin
new subscriber here, and I'm binge watching your videos like crazy! love your editing style and awesome content...thank you!
love your thoughts on the four agreements, also had similar feelings of like "ick" in areas
This is the first time I’ve watched a vlog so close to it being posted because it was a perfect time to watch!! I usually have to save them to savor it and watch at the right time
Thank you so much for videos like this ❤ I’m sitting up at 330am cause of chronic pain and it makes me feel so much less alone
oh i’m so sorry you got this nellie - sending you lots of love and strength 💌 hope you catch some Zs, soon!
Aah Ally, I watched this twice back to back because I felt so seen!!! This one slapped. Sending you so much love. keep being gentle with yourself
needed this so bad! got myself out of the Funk (tm) temporarily by finding a new favourite book but I can feel myself slipping back now :(((
(the book was all four quarters of the moon by shirley marr, its a 9-12 kids book but it somehow made me cry??? incredible, 10000/5 stars)
Didn’t watch your video last night because of work so today I have the time to do it and the best part is that I can watch it on my birthday 🥳
(I yawned with you 14:12)
Thoughts and prayers for Alex❤️ I love that you always say “take your time” to yourself I love that I always fell better because of that, thank you for your video and making my day better

2:16 i can get behind beet juice!!
a couple of years ago my iron was reaaaaalllyyyy low and my anemia was at its ✨ peak ✨ and all of my dominican tias were screaming at me to drink beat juice
i hated the taste but hallelujah after a couple of weeks samantha went back to the doctors and her iron was still low but she wasn’t anemic anymore!!
my oxygens levels are also low ( question mark ?? like what i breath everyday ) and i’ve been trying to incorporate beets 2:16 into my diet more 🔅🔅
The music in the lil outside section remind me of a cross between a Zelda game and an ace attorney game 😂🙌🏽

been majorly stuck in a January hole, so this vlog hits different 😭😂 thankful for your vlogs!!
11:28 a real pet peeve of mine is when authors write a super profound philosophical paragraph about sth, and im like: yeah i agree that is so well put, you really understand life! and then .. they end the paragraph with "and thats why God". like. no, this isnt what im looking for, why is this your conclusion to every thought?? maybe i need to stop reading les miserables lol, victor hugo is really bad with this! :D
I’m glad I (accidentally) saved this video until today because I’ve had a crappy day and needed this! Like you drinking the juice from the funnel? Day is all better now 😂
I like to dress carrots with freshly grated ginger and a bit of mayonnaise mixed with water! Sounds gross but works lol!
