Hello Stan. Ik your mental health isn’t to good but I just wanted to tell you that I used to be in such a bad state and watching you and your videos you inspired me to get out of that dark place and know I’m so much better so thank you. We love you and hope you get better 💕
@@worldofxtra omg thank you for everyone likening this. It means so much and I hope anyone who felt like they don’t wanna be here anymore who sees this comment I hope u fight just a little bit more cus it will get better I promise
Thanks for being vulnerable with us Stan. I think it's hard for me to open up because when I was younger I was always seen as weird for trying to talk about my feelings and no one would ever check up on me. This made it so easy to get attached to anyone that showed the tiniest amount of care for me lol. We are all going through it and we all need someone to be there for us from time to time. Thanks for this video Stan and thanks for being real!
hi stan !! usually i never comment but i wanted to say that talking about this kind of subject is such a good idea, because as an "influencer" (omg you're so famous i swear 🤩🤩) you have really good advice and relatable things to say to people that need those kind of help and i think its beautiful how you can talk about it so freely and idk confidently too ?? idk it reassures me sm to know that yknow i'm not alone in this :') anyways best of love for you and you family i hope you can work on this and we can all work together !!
I have Asthma and it was a big problem. Anytime I needed to cry I would have an Asthma attack and people would yell at me telling me I should learn not to cry. I defo think that's where all of my anxiousness started.
I’ve been under tremendous pressure and stress these days and my organs are all acting up so I’m constantly visiting the doctor😔 Thank you so much Stan for showing us so much genuineness and I hope we both get back to being mentally healthy 🎉
I honestly like this raw and real version of Stan. Through you being more honest and transparent I believe everyone will eventually see you and understand you as a person and not just an online persona. Keep fighting 🥰
waaa, that is my current situation rn. everyone expects me to be excellent and i hate telling people about my struggles because my mind just makes up reasons as to why my struggles are not valid. this is really frustrating! but this video gave me the warmest hug i need rn
honestly i know exactly how you feel with the overthinking, the heavy feeling in the chest, the trying to feel normal again, etc. it’s a relief but also a saddening feeling to know someone else feels the same way because i know how hard it is to be portraying a fake self to everybody around you. i hope you take some more time to put yourself first and make sure you’re okay. Remember you’re a person too so it’s very important to be doing things to better your mind and find peace. hope you’re gonna be ok!
I am sorry you are struggling right now. Some people don't understand because they don't really understand what anxiety is and how it can manifest in other people. For me, I struggle with my weight (being a heavier person), feeling responsible for my family, not "being where I should be" at 37 and not progressing in my language studies/ career. Generally, being somewhere (mentally and physically) I don't want to be right now. I get not wanting people's sympathy or praise for being honest. I appreciate you being open and honest about your struggles. You never have to fear showing your vulnerabilities. The community you have created and support has your back. Side note: yes, your day in the life videos are the best ^_^
I’ve been spiraling lately back into my unhealthy habits because of my anxiety but watching your videos has really brightened up my mood that I even forgot I was in a bad mood for a short moment and for that I’m really thankful. 🥺 I hope you know that you’re loved and thank you always for being such an angel in these trying times! We got you bestie!! 💕
To be honest, at this point in my life I can say that my mental health is doing great! I got a boyfriend (yes the first time), I have best friends (only 2, but cool af) and I have finally found the real self of mine. I have started to learn how to cook, draw and I got the confidence with my voice and body (for which I was bullied in school). Now in uni I can say that my life is stable and I do not want any expectations that this phase will last forever because I know it won't and yeah I'm enjoying this moment! ;)
I love the way you delivered the message of mental health to us. Everyone is struggling and you're not a superhero, so yes speak your truth stan. We love you
Hope you're doing well stan, always focus on yourself first! Take breaks, be lazy it's okay to not be productive and I'm so proud of you for talking about such topics to the public keep on slaying queen 😘
Hello!! I’m a psychologist (I’m graduating next week, so we all are going to agree that I’m already a psychologist, alright? I did amazing in all of my classes). And I want to expose a important take on this matter, and since English isn’t my first language and I want to write this with my best words and explanations, I will do it in Spanish. Feel free to translate it and ask me if you have any question regarding the translation itself. Like, I know English, it’s just that I want to write this in my own language. Lo que quería decir es que creo que has dado el mejor acercamiento en cuanto a lo que salud mental y enfermedad mental. No podemos verlos como dos extremos contrarios, en el cual si estás sano no estás enfermo, y si estás enfermo entonces no estás sano. La salud mental funciona como un espectro. Partamos de la idea de que nunca se está del todo bien, ni del todo mal. Se está. Trastornos como la ansiedad o la depresión, aunque comparten unos síntomas comunes para que podamos estar de acuerdo en cuando alguien está padeciendo esto o no, y así orientar el tratamiento y el diagnóstico, no significa que se presente de la misma manera o de la misma intensidad en todos. Es más, la manifestación en sí puede ser completamente diferente. Si en mi día normal disfruto no hacer nada excepto dormir, no puedo decir que soy depresivo. Es algo que genuinamente me gusta. Pero si de repente me deja de gustar el estar quieto y ahora debo estarme moviendo porque me siento inútil si no es así, sería un indicador de un problema. El caso es que la salud mental debe ser tratada como algo en parte distinto a la salud física. Podemos evaluar el cerebro y ver qué daños estructurales o químicos tenemos. Pero también influye lo emocional, y nuestra propia estructura mental con la cual vemos e interpretamos el mundo. Y para eso aún no tenemos exámenes que nos digan con 100% de precisión: tu tristeza es así, se expresa así, es por esto, y se puede curar con total seguridad de esta manera. Es un descubrimiento que debe hacer la misma persona desde su subjetividad, acompañado de un profesional en salud mental que hará preguntas que te pongan a pensar más allá de lo que normalmente haces. Es una mayéutica socrática, es decir, una conversación donde vamos a ir yendo más a profundidad con el mismo material que tú entregas. Y por eso es importante la terapia, casi que constante. No quiere decir que deba ser semanal sí o sí. Porque Stan bien decía: el acceso es complicado, además es costoso. Pero ir de vez en cuando, cuando surjan preguntas existenciales, o dificultades. Preguntarnos acerca de nosotros mismos y conocernos bien debería de ser prioridad en un mundo que quiere hacernos iguales a todos sólo para que consúmanos más. Vayan a terapia, y no será fácil, pero con el tiempo, verán que fue completamente valioso y útil ❤
I suffer from severe social anxiety that keeps me locked indoors, but lessening my sugar and caffeine intake has helped a little!! You probably don't eat much sugar anyways with them beautiful teeth but my mom always nags me about my sugar intake I'll nag you too hehe. Much love for u stan
As someone that used to have severe social anxiety, I know self diagnosing is bad, but it was at a point where no matter how hard someone would talk to me I would ignore them, and isolate myself from anything that required social interaction, it was the worse year of my life, anxiety comes in different forms, so even if someone could seem happy, and confident, they could also be struggling with anxiety, i don't have much social anxiety as i used too, and I know I can never really get rid of it, but it's always just been a part of me, and no one should pretend they don't have it, and act like having anxiety is something to look down on, everyone has their own struggles and difficulties. I'm more confident than I used to be, and socialize a lot than I used to before, I finally made good friends this year that are genuine, and can talk to people without feeling so anxious like I used to before, but yeah, don't suppress yourself or put yourself down if you do feel anxious, it's normal and it's okay
I was pressured so much that when I thought I didn’t do good enough I would burst down in tears and I’m only realising there’s no need for that. Since I started watching you I feel so much more confident even by the slightest and watching you is so comforting thank you so much ❤❤❤❤
I feel you on the mental health Stan, I’m 15 and I’ve been crying a lot recently for no reason and I started talking to my grandma and crying on her shoulder every time I feel like I’m going to get teary eyed and I don’t have anxiety I think but I have bad panic attacks, hearing you talk about your mental health for some reason makes me feel better Idk if you’ll ever read this but I love you and your personality so much❤
Thank you so much for being vulnerable and open with us about your struggles with anxiety, Stan. I know waiting for that initial appointment can be really hard at times, so I'm sending you my well wishes. I hope you're able to get the help you need (either through therapy and/or medication) soon. I started grad school last year and had to go on Zoloft to help with my anxiety; while it was a hard adjustment, I'm really proud of myself for address the issue head on. And I hope you know we're all so proud of you! ❤
I think most people can relate. The past 2-3 years has put a strain on everyone more than ever before. I know myself I understand now that I'm not in the best place with my mental health, but it's just so hard for me personally to talk about it. Dunno why, but good for you being transparent and recognizing that you aren't where you really want to be and are taking steps to take care of you 💓
It’s definitely a tough thing to acknowledge and face when you have struggles with mental health. And I respect you for openly discussing them and sharing your story with us. Although we love the constant uploads, we love you more and want your mental and physical health to come first. We love you Stan ❤
stan, i was someone who commented that i loved this "old" style of vlogs and I'm so happy you saw and decided to bring it back for a vid like this! i loved being able to follow you around for the day and listen to you talk about your thoughts recently. the moments in these videos you give us to reflect with you really help me to look internally and feel like i can relate to you. some parts of the video feel emma chamberlain-esque and i just love how chill it is 🥰 thank you for being you!
ngl, i really needed this type of video rn since I'im not okay in the head recently, and I know why but at the same time, idk as well. it's just really hard to explain, maybe it's the december air(?) but yeah. it's just really refreshing to see this type of content from you and i would really appreciate it if you make more of these in the future, obvs no pressure. love you, stan!
Watching your vlogs is really such a stress reliever for me all the time. This one particularly made me feel better, coz I realized I am not the only one who feels this kind or degree of anxiety where you over analyze things and it just fcks up your overall mental health, it just paralyzes you all the time. My struggles are validated by watching this vlog.
One thing Stan! You are making progress in loving yourself and it’s always the first step that we think we really be loving ourselves but acceptance is THE BEGINNING like omg we love you for you and do not take the pressure of doing good 👍 cuz maaaan you really do be the priority . Take time and we’ll be moving together on this journeyyyy❤❤❤❤❤
My mental health is the hot mess express atm and doing things to reduce anxiety but them instead causing more anxiety is my entire existence rn 😭 but you openly talking about it is honestly so encouraging 💕💕 we're here for you as you are!
Thank you for sharing your feelings with us! I just wanna say that we accept you in any way and you don’t have to keep up with that «perfect» version of yourself.I’ve been struggling with anxiety too recently but your videos always comfort and make me feel safe!! Remember that we love you so so much Stan ❤️
honestly in a world where everyone acts tough, acts confident 24/7… to show emotions and vulnerability is truly a strength. the ability to be vulnerable is a superpower in itself tbh. it takes courage to show emotions and show vulnerability rather than covering them up and “acting” strong/tough.
stan!! i really appreciate the way you approached the topic of mental health :D i’ve also been struggling and i hate being vulnerable, but for me it’s because i have a fear of bothering other people and losing them because of my issues yk? sometimes i feel like ppl just misunderstand me and start treating me like i’m fragile or they invalidate and misunderstand the way i feel and that just breaks the friendship (or any sort of relationship) altogether. but at the same time i’m socially anxious so maybe that’s why i think that💀 everything aside, to you and whoever is reading this, let’s get through this together! WE GOT THIS GUYS
9:51 STAN😭😭 wtf (slayed🤪) You’re the most relatable RUclipsr I’ve come across … I love you. Thank you for always making Wednesday my favorite day of the week. Hang in there….you got this 🥹
I'm glad that Stan can be open about his problems with his viewers, especially his mental health. I hope you get the help u need stan! You have inspired me and many others !! :) One more thing I love how you address multiple topics and deliver a message to spread awareness. Love you videos stan , stay strong
I really adore how open you are and keep on adressing mental health in your videos, remembering the time I first saw your video "watch this if you're insecure" (which I never knew I needed cause anxiety is eating me up) after watching that I started to check your other videos then here I am a Stan Stan who always wait for wenesday to come. Watching your videos actually helped me to come out of my comfort zone step by step and not be afraid of being myself. Love you Stan hoping for you to get better soon, let's prioritize our mental health 💗
Stan we absolutely dont expect you to be perfect ! you're not perfect, we're not perfect, nobody is ! waking up and sitting on your phone, getting up at 10am, literally just not being productive is also good sometimes. As someone that works a 9-5 and has deteriorating mental health i can tell you these things are so normal for most people, it's just another form of catching up with yourself and giving yourself a moment, if anything i WISH i had more time to rest but my lifestyle doesn't allow it. In your case literally just skip a filming day and stay in bed, we will still be here when you skip an upload !
the shot at 8:10, where you ask after explaining the real as fuck difficulty with living with depression and anxiety, “can you guys relate to that?” while people start walking all around you. idk that just really moved me. im probably being dramatic but i feel like including that moment really symbolizes how it feels to be anxious and/or depressed especially after a life-altering event i grew up with a lot of similar expectations on me as u did. love u stan. we’ll make it, one day at a time.
Stan honestly thank you so much for opening about mental health, it brought me soo much comfort that even the brightest person can be struggling just like all of us too 💕
I can totally relate! Literally telling my life story. My anxiety is so bad that one time I spiraled out so badly I literally fainted. I hope you find away to embrace and manage you're anxiety (I'm still trying). Love you
Bestie I totally understand what you’re going through with your mental health!! anxiety sucks but just be patient with yourself, slow down , take a time for yourself and believe me; things will get better! Te amo bebe 💗
i’m going through a lot of emotions right now in life, sadness, happiness, nervousness and many more i can’t keep up with all my emotions but your videos calm down all my emotions and my thoughts to the point i don’t focus on the bad in life i focus on the good. i hope that whatever your going through is curable!!
Thank you for this video Stan. I've been dealing with Anxiety and I'm slowly working on it. It's nice to get the resources and the help we need to get better. Hope you're doing better. I enjoy watching your videos as they cheer me up every morning.
Hi Stan, thank you so much for being open with us and telling us whats going on. Most people online cover up their feelings and are not real with us so making a video about this is really nice and I hope it will inspire others, For me, talking about my feelings was the hardest thing to do. My friends and family see me as tough and strong but in reality, I can be very self contuse sometimes and I felt like no one understands me. Then, over quarantine, I was forced to talk about my feelings. Even though I felt somewhat embarrassed, people finally understood me and It made quarantine a whole lot better. (btw, if you ever need to talk to someone, your community is always here to help you. 💕)
I love how you articulate your thoughts. Discovered you last week and I cannot stop watching all your vlogs! I also had depression when I was your age. I am now 36 and have been better ever since. I hope it will be well for you soon. Love, love.
I've also been struggling with anxiety and even depression. A person who was so special to me, and was super close to me, decided to act like i don't exist anymore, and broke up with me. It's been so difficult, and I've been told he called me a bitch, even though he was the one that hurt me and the one that left. I've been getting anxiety attacks, I've been under so much stress, sometimes I'm unable to sleep, but your videos always cheer me up Stan. You, and your personality always light my day up ❤️ Thank you for being my light, in this dark time right now. We've all got this, and we're strong ❤️
I watch your videos when I'm down. It really helps to cheer me up ❤️ Anyone, regardless of ANYTHING can suffer from poor mental health. Talking about mental health is brave in itself.
It takes courage to do what you do. You inspire many. I don't think the world has seen you yet but you're a leader and destined to lead many. Thank you
Hey stan just a lil reminder from a 20 yr old figuring life.... It's ok to be vulnerable sometimes, it's not weakness.....!! You will be fine....!! Just know that you have hundreds of thousands of people who love you ❤❤
Whenever i watch ur videos, they always makes my mood light up and seeing u talk about something like this actually makes me relate too. We all struggle in life and mental health is really not easy to handle. Im so proud of you for opening about this topic cuz it also helps other people! Thank you for this stan, i hope you are feeling much better now❤
Thank you Stan for being open to everyone. Your channel definitely feels so welcoming to everyone. Anxiety can be something very hard to face and everyone faces it differently. I’ve been an over thinker, and easy to panic for years now but hearing that there always a way to find comfort also help feels good. I enjoy your content very much from the crazy energy to the chill videos it’s very enjoyable and also feels real. Thank you Stan for sharing your world to us
This just made me realize and made me think about my mental health, and admitting that I'm struggling is the first step and think of what's causing the stress. What I do is have a "me time" as much as we have people we love or care about, stepping back and just doing something for yourself; do what makes you happy is not a bad thing. Thanks for sharing, BTW you're amazing!!! 😄
hi stan! im honestly so happy you talked about this because i've been struggling with anxiety too lately. i feel like this video popped up at the perfect time, it's so refreshing to find someone that i can relate to. thank you so much for blessing us with your content, as always, and i love u !!!
I agree with everything u said in this video, anxiety shouldn't stop you from trying to go out and have a good day! always do what you think is best for yourself and don't care about what other people are telling you to do 😌! I also love the new style of vlog the cooking segment at the end was very fun :)!!
Thank you for being so open with us, I haven't watched many people that talk openly about their mental health I was in the same place about a year ago , I hope you feel better soon ❤️, have a good day 😊
Growing up without any proper care and attention from my parents and family, I have no one to talk to about my feelings and problems so I already adopt this mechanism to keep all these thoughts by myself. Figure out things by myself. Until now, It is still difficult for me to communicate my feelings with my husband. Early in the relationship I kept giving him the silent treatment whenever I feel something wrong and it just gave him too much anxiety. Now, I am trying to be expressive and I want to communicate to others more about what I feel. Thank you Stan for sharing this, its just a relief to see that we are all working to be much better each day.
I've been having a really tough time with anxiety and stress lately too so the timing of this video could not have been better. It makes me feel so much better knowing that I am not the only one going through it atm 🥰
I really liked that you pointed out some things about anxiety , I think it's eye opening to ask yourself why do you have anxiety. After doing therapy for a while understanding how my brain works and what s anxiety and how it can manifest,I felt better ,but it's a lot of work, not impossible tho, and in the end worth it.
Hello Stan, thank you for opening up about mental health issues! I discovered your channel while I was conscripted in the ARMY (it's compulsory 🥲 14 months...) and a notification every Wednesday from your channel was a highlight for my whole week, and it still is! As someone also struggling with anxiety, it's nice to have even more things I can relate on with my fav creator!
Ur the perfect example of the most realistic person In youtube fr 💜 I just love your videos and just everything you do 💕 ur really someone who we can ...feel connected to ! Be urself and ..win more hearts 🤍💯
I relate to everything you've said about your mental health in this video. I feel for you and I'm glad you brought it up! I feel it's not being talked about up as much now that the world is opening up.
I haven't even watched yet, but it's okay to not be okay! And I so appreciate you being open and vulnerable with your mental health and queerness, because it brings so much comfort to all the rest of us who relate on such an intimate level. Also... I love your channel! 😝
I'm not sure how to word this but anxiety can show up in different life situations and how it affects everyone is personal. Obviously there's some universally thought indications of it but still its not the same for everyone. You are not weaker or less of capable because someone else didn't get anxiety over the same thing they also went through. I actually think there might be a lot of people that don't realise they might be experiencing anxiety and because it got better in a timeframe they are ok with, it never occurred to them to be that. Some of the sucky feely thingies* we go through in life are kind of made into pathological thinking of it - could be because of this extremely efficient driven society we live in. So to make yourself "back to normal" in less of a time, you need to take medicine. Caution: not the case for everyone. Some poeple need the medication to help themselves through and as a first step to even make the changes in their lives that help them I'm proud that you decided to listen to yourself and seek help. Also that you make do things in your way and shared this with us. I'm sure there are people who haven't yet realised they are also going through anxiety filled chapter and you sharing these thoughts possibly also helps them to realise that. I'm also a overthinker and don't want to share that I need help and go through stuff. "I want to fix myself and not make everyone else that they need to fix me". I'm also not that in tune with my emotions cause of alexithymia so I have no idea if there's need for change. What has helped me with anxiety: -first to acknowledge it -make peace with it "Yeah I'm feeling anxious but it will be there no matter what I do so let's just keep going and do stuff I need to do" - I also feel a lot better once I have done the stuff which gives me positive feedback - constant pats over shoulder - give myself time and endless opportunities "small process and set backs help you find your way of doing things and eventually it'll prosper into strategies that help you in the long run" - giving breaks "for me as a form of doing stuff I really like but have quilt tripped not to do previously (playing games, drawing, baking, reading etc.)" If you can I also suggest to surround yourself with people whom you feel comfortable with. Maybe you can give them an opportunity to help you. - made that step recently (week ago) and it was a tiny shit show but it has in my case already helped a ton. Writing a diary in a more timely manner is my next step. So I can find out what is rambling in my head and in the last sentences "talk" to myself in a more kind manner of the things. I'm not sure if anxiety will ever go away and that's not the goal here. The goal is to find ways that help you keep anxiety at bay and to realise your own "symptoms" when to seek help when your own tools don't work anymore. *Didn't mean to make those experiences less of a serious thing. More as a way to ease the way of writing about it.
Thank you for being open about your mental health, I know it isn't easy. I also have to put up this 'front' of always being happy and outgoing, I have a 'customer service voice' I put on at work but people don't realize I have clinical depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, body dysmorphia and more which stem from trauma from childhood abuse. You got this and if anyone else is reading this, hang in there, it's okay not be okay. You don't have to prove yourself to anyone but please don't give up on yourself.
Stan, I admire how brave it is from you to open towards us, your viewers telling us what you going through these last months so thank you for letting us know, keep going queen, we love you and take care! ps: I love these kind of videos where you can talk about yourself and what is happening . A big hug 💗
im so glad you could open up with us, lately i have been in a very rough spot with my mental health but your videos have been helping me get back on track, thank you sm stan i hope you get the help you need!
Yeah the struggle after recovering from a major surgery!! Finding your spark is not easy, when you have spent so much time on a certain routine and suddenly you don't have to focus your energy on recovering/ keeping up the recovery routines anymore... I wish you a good time, you seem like a person who spends a lot of time self-reflecting so that definitely could make finding the spark again somehow even harder, idk even why...
Videos like this are amazing. All of us who follow you know who you are though so don't worry about over explaining yourself all the time. Like when you say youre not trying to be praised for being open about your mental health etc. We all know you're just opening up and none of us will take it a negative way :)
hi stan! u are in fact very smart and strong because not all people just take care of their feelings, going out and afront ur emotions is something that took me years to do, you are doing an excelent job and even if there are some days that u will have a huge meltdown it’s okay, it’s part of a process. I hope u feel better soon
I have anxiety, have had panic attacks at night (very fun), i know the puffiness in the chest, constant thoughts that cripples and overwhelms, the thing that helped me was being a bit more positive, anxiety makes you think the worst is going to happen, all you need to do is be positive and think something good or even the best is going to happen, turn the fear into excitement. Thank you very much for making this video, it made me feel relief and less alone, if someone as dope as you can have anxiety i sure heck can Also i think you have anxiety because you have so much to lose - a successful career, a loving family, a lot of good friends and ofcourse the love of your life A fun thing you could do is try donating + its Christmas season, giving away something could make you feel okay in losing stuff Hope you slayy anxiety and i really love your videos :p
Stan please remember everyone is human so it's alright to show the world how you really feel, not feeling and struggling is normal that's something everyone goes trough once in a while.
This video was all I needed rn. I've always had anxiety about my femininity and though I try not to act different than what I am, I often end up anxious about it and overthink it. It makes me feel like everybody is judging even though I'm certain nobody gives a fuck. Lately I've been singing more often and my anxiety over my higher voice (which I love btw) is stopping me from improving my singing skill. Anyway, ly Stan! Take your time!! It might not help but meditating is so good for clearing your thoughts
i love these videos so much, you make good conversation and it's nice to hear what you have to say about topics like mental health. i especially agreed with your comment that after big life changes, it's difficult to find your "spark" again, so it's necessary to reevaluate your person and get to settling within the new you. i'm still trying to figure that out for myself since 2019, honestly. so, i wish you and anyone else going through this process good luck and good energy. change is the only constant in the universe
hi stan! you're one of the reasons why i was able to get through the pandemic/lockdown and that's saying a lot considering how bad things were where I'm from. i was recently diagnosed with ADHD, bipolar disorder type II, anxiety AND depression klflaksfba;pfdgb and while medication did help, i wanted a more holistic approach! I've been doing evening walks, eating more veggies, and trying to get better quality sleep! --- not to mention watching your shorts and videos have been godsend! wishing you all the best stan!
i honestly am going through kind of the same thing rly my anxiety is at its worst right now and i am seeing someone to help me manage it better so that’s already a win for me since it was so hard to even seek help because of the anxiety you know but hey small steps so this video rly helps me personally! it just shows that im not alone in this if that makes sense 😅 i love you and your videos so keep going!🤍
Please more videos like this 😆 they are soo chill, and they honestly are very therapeutic and relaxing, i love watching them very nostalgic it’s giving blonde stan era 🫶🏻
tbh you are one of the most active youtubers who is honest with their fanbase and always speaks their truth. that is something i aspire to be. and i hope you'll get better :)
Honestly what makes you different than other youtubers I've followed through the years is that I have never had an issue as seeing you as a person. I always thought that's what you presented to the camera, I think its your authenticity that made that possible if anyhting.
thank you for being open with us about your mental health🫂 i also think it's showing of strength if person is able to talk about their «imperfect side». im aslo struggling with anxiety as well as apathy recently, but i cant bring myself to talk about my mental health with parents, friends and psychologist.. not yet. however i've started to read books abt phychology and im trying to better understand myself and what stands for my such behaving. i guess after a bit self-work i will finally be able to talk to someone about it. i think it's very important to show others that every single person is not perfect, and any problems with mental health can be solved😊 i hope you will get better soon💕💕 (sorry if i made mistakes in the text, im not fluent in english)
This was very relatable- ever since I ended a certain relationship with a certain PUSHY guy, I don’t feel like myself anymore. Like right when I pushed those insecurities away, they came back because of the guy. And with insecurities rising again, my anxiety has too. I hope we can both get back on track to our true selves without anxiety pulling us down. Love ya 💜💜💜
how are you doing with your mental health, y'all?!?!?! 😎 Let's work on it together! hehehe
Yuh
So much is happening right now, exams, grandpa passing, financial issues but somehow my mental health is slaying
my bunny died yesterday so im not okay 😭
watching ur weekly videos does the trick 🥰🥰
Hello Stan. Ik your mental health isn’t to good but I just wanted to tell you that I used to be in such a bad state and watching you and your videos you inspired me to get out of that dark place and know I’m so much better so thank you. We love you and hope you get better 💕
AWWW 🥹🥹🥹🥹❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you for this comment 😭😭❤️ It really motivates me knowing what I do for my community :-(
Literally same. When I was going through some hard times Stan's videos gave me a good laugh to improve my day
I SECOND THIS!
@@worldofxtra omg thank you for everyone likening this. It means so much and I hope anyone who felt like they don’t wanna be here anymore who sees this comment I hope u fight just a little bit more cus it will get better I promise
Same 🥹🫶
Thanks for being vulnerable with us Stan.
I think it's hard for me to open up because when I was younger I was always seen as weird for trying to talk about my feelings and no one would ever check up on me. This made it so easy to get attached to anyone that showed the tiniest amount of care for me lol. We are all going through it and we all need someone to be there for us from time to time.
Thanks for this video Stan and thanks for being real!
Aaahhh!! Ainswoorth!! Thank you for sharing that story! :0 We got this, okay! :)
I've been struggling A LOT lately
Watching this makes me feel better and understood
and I understand you
Aahhh we got this together! :)
hi stan !!
usually i never comment but i wanted to say that talking about this kind of subject is such a good idea, because as an "influencer" (omg you're so famous i swear 🤩🤩) you have really good advice and relatable things to say to people that need those kind of help and i think its beautiful how you can talk about it so freely and idk confidently too ??
idk it reassures me sm to know that yknow i'm not alone in this :')
anyways best of love for you and you family i hope you can work on this and we can all work together !!
AAHHH!!! Soooo so so glad to read this comment. Thank you so much 😭😭❤️
Thank you for being so open with us Stan :) everyone deals with mental health differently so how you deal with it shouldn’t even be up for critique.
you ate with that
I have Asthma and it was a big problem. Anytime I needed to cry I would have an Asthma attack and people would yell at me telling me I should learn not to cry. I defo think that's where all of my anxiousness started.
We admire your consistency on this channel. We all hope you continue to be an inspiration to many people.
I’ve been under tremendous pressure and stress these days and my organs are all acting up so I’m constantly visiting the doctor😔 Thank you so much Stan for showing us so much genuineness and I hope we both get back to being mentally healthy 🎉
Wishing you the best ❤
I honestly like this raw and real version of Stan. Through you being more honest and transparent I believe everyone will eventually see you and understand you as a person and not just an online persona. Keep fighting 🥰
waaa, that is my current situation rn. everyone expects me to be excellent and i hate telling people about my struggles because my mind just makes up reasons as to why my struggles are not valid. this is really frustrating! but this video gave me the warmest hug i need rn
OMG YESSSS I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN but your struggles are soooo so so valid omg. WE GOT THIS! :)))
@@worldofxtra THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SAYING THAT!!!! 😭😭 WE GOT THIS STAN ❤❤❤
honestly i know exactly how you feel with the overthinking, the heavy feeling in the chest, the trying to feel normal again, etc. it’s a relief but also a saddening feeling to know someone else feels the same way because i know how hard it is to be portraying a fake self to everybody around you.
i hope you take some more time to put yourself first and make sure you’re okay. Remember you’re a person too so it’s very important to be doing things to better your mind and find peace. hope you’re gonna be ok!
I am sorry you are struggling right now. Some people don't understand because they don't really understand what anxiety is and how it can manifest in other people. For me, I struggle with my weight (being a heavier person), feeling responsible for my family, not "being where I should be" at 37 and not progressing in my language studies/ career. Generally, being somewhere (mentally and physically) I don't want to be right now. I get not wanting people's sympathy or praise for being honest. I appreciate you being open and honest about your struggles. You never have to fear showing your vulnerabilities. The community you have created and support has your back. Side note: yes, your day in the life videos are the best ^_^
:-(( thank you for always supporting me and my content :-(( and yeah, we got this! :)) we shall work on it together. This comment means a lot :))
I’ve been spiraling lately back into my unhealthy habits because of my anxiety but watching your videos has really brightened up my mood that I even forgot I was in a bad mood for a short moment and for that I’m really thankful. 🥺 I hope you know that you’re loved and thank you always for being such an angel in these trying times! We got you bestie!! 💕
To be honest, at this point in my life I can say that my mental health is doing great! I got a boyfriend (yes the first time), I have best friends (only 2, but cool af) and I have finally found the real self of mine.
I have started to learn how to cook, draw and I got the confidence with my voice and body (for which I was bullied in school).
Now in uni I can say that my life is stable and I do not want any expectations that this phase will last forever because I know it won't and yeah I'm enjoying this moment! ;)
I love that you’re addressing the topic of mental health (multiple times on your channel) it reminds me that we all need it ! ❤️❤️
I love the way you delivered the message of mental health to us. Everyone is struggling and you're not a superhero, so yes speak your truth stan. We love you
HEY STAN! I hope you have an amazing day you literally always make my day so much better, you also got me into journaling. THANK YOU!
WOOHOOO! I’m so happy you got into journaling! :)
Hope you're doing well stan, always focus on yourself first! Take breaks, be lazy it's okay to not be productive and I'm so proud of you for talking about such topics to the public keep on slaying queen 😘
casual conversations about mental health are so important !! I really enjoy these day in the life/vlog style videos :)
Hello!! I’m a psychologist (I’m graduating next week, so we all are going to agree that I’m already a psychologist, alright? I did amazing in all of my classes). And I want to expose a important take on this matter, and since English isn’t my first language and I want to write this with my best words and explanations, I will do it in Spanish. Feel free to translate it and ask me if you have any question regarding the translation itself. Like, I know English, it’s just that I want to write this in my own language.
Lo que quería decir es que creo que has dado el mejor acercamiento en cuanto a lo que salud mental y enfermedad mental. No podemos verlos como dos extremos contrarios, en el cual si estás sano no estás enfermo, y si estás enfermo entonces no estás sano. La salud mental funciona como un espectro. Partamos de la idea de que nunca se está del todo bien, ni del todo mal. Se está. Trastornos como la ansiedad o la depresión, aunque comparten unos síntomas comunes para que podamos estar de acuerdo en cuando alguien está padeciendo esto o no, y así orientar el tratamiento y el diagnóstico, no significa que se presente de la misma manera o de la misma intensidad en todos. Es más, la manifestación en sí puede ser completamente diferente. Si en mi día normal disfruto no hacer nada excepto dormir, no puedo decir que soy depresivo. Es algo que genuinamente me gusta. Pero si de repente me deja de gustar el estar quieto y ahora debo estarme moviendo porque me siento inútil si no es así, sería un indicador de un problema. El caso es que la salud mental debe ser tratada como algo en parte distinto a la salud física. Podemos evaluar el cerebro y ver qué daños estructurales o químicos tenemos. Pero también influye lo emocional, y nuestra propia estructura mental con la cual vemos e interpretamos el mundo. Y para eso aún no tenemos exámenes que nos digan con 100% de precisión: tu tristeza es así, se expresa así, es por esto, y se puede curar con total seguridad de esta manera. Es un descubrimiento que debe hacer la misma persona desde su subjetividad, acompañado de un profesional en salud mental que hará preguntas que te pongan a pensar más allá de lo que normalmente haces. Es una mayéutica socrática, es decir, una conversación donde vamos a ir yendo más a profundidad con el mismo material que tú entregas. Y por eso es importante la terapia, casi que constante. No quiere decir que deba ser semanal sí o sí. Porque Stan bien decía: el acceso es complicado, además es costoso. Pero ir de vez en cuando, cuando surjan preguntas existenciales, o dificultades. Preguntarnos acerca de nosotros mismos y conocernos bien debería de ser prioridad en un mundo que quiere hacernos iguales a todos sólo para que consúmanos más. Vayan a terapia, y no será fácil, pero con el tiempo, verán que fue completamente valioso y útil ❤
I suffer from severe social anxiety that keeps me locked indoors, but lessening my sugar and caffeine intake has helped a little!! You probably don't eat much sugar anyways with them beautiful teeth but my mom always nags me about my sugar intake I'll nag you too hehe. Much love for u stan
As someone that used to have severe social anxiety, I know self diagnosing is bad, but it was at a point where no matter how hard someone would talk to me I would ignore them, and isolate myself from anything that required social interaction, it was the worse year of my life, anxiety comes in different forms, so even if someone could seem happy, and confident, they could also be struggling with anxiety, i don't have much social anxiety as i used too, and I know I can never really get rid of it, but it's always just been a part of me, and no one should pretend they don't have it, and act like having anxiety is something to look down on, everyone has their own struggles and difficulties. I'm more confident than I used to be, and socialize a lot than I used to before, I finally made good friends this year that are genuine, and can talk to people without feeling so anxious like I used to before, but yeah, don't suppress yourself or put yourself down if you do feel anxious, it's normal and it's okay
I was pressured so much that when I thought I didn’t do good enough I would burst down in tears and I’m only realising there’s no need for that. Since I started watching you I feel so much more confident even by the slightest and watching you is so comforting thank you so much ❤❤❤❤
the fact that you're opening this up to us feels like great honour as a subscriber. wishing you all the best, stan
I feel you on the mental health Stan, I’m 15 and I’ve been crying a lot recently for no reason and I started talking to my grandma and crying on her shoulder every time I feel like I’m going to get teary eyed and I don’t have anxiety I think but I have bad panic attacks, hearing you talk about your mental health for some reason makes me feel better Idk if you’ll ever read this but I love you and your personality so much❤
Fav youtuber in japan 🇯🇵
Thank you so much for being vulnerable and open with us about your struggles with anxiety, Stan. I know waiting for that initial appointment can be really hard at times, so I'm sending you my well wishes. I hope you're able to get the help you need (either through therapy and/or medication) soon. I started grad school last year and had to go on Zoloft to help with my anxiety; while it was a hard adjustment, I'm really proud of myself for address the issue head on. And I hope you know we're all so proud of you! ❤
the way stan use 'WE' is fr so cute. it's like we're actually hanging out as besties🫂
I think most people can relate. The past 2-3 years has put a strain on everyone more than ever before. I know myself I understand now that I'm not in the best place with my mental health, but it's just so hard for me personally to talk about it. Dunno why, but good for you being transparent and recognizing that you aren't where you really want to be and are taking steps to take care of you 💓
You’re amazing, Stan. It’s so brave of you to talk about anxiety and thank you so much for still uploading every week 🥹
It’s definitely a tough thing to acknowledge and face when you have struggles with mental health. And I respect you for openly discussing them and sharing your story with us. Although we love the constant uploads, we love you more and want your mental and physical health to come first. We love you Stan ❤
I'm literally crying watching this right now 😭
stan, i was someone who commented that i loved this "old" style of vlogs and I'm so happy you saw and decided to bring it back for a vid like this! i loved being able to follow you around for the day and listen to you talk about your thoughts recently. the moments in these videos you give us to reflect with you really help me to look internally and feel like i can relate to you. some parts of the video feel emma chamberlain-esque and i just love how chill it is 🥰 thank you for being you!
Living in Tokyo was so stressful for me. Moving to the Shonan area was so relieving.
I need more videos like this! even if u just walk around the city and get something to eat, i love to watch it
ngl, i really needed this type of video rn since I'im not okay in the head recently, and I know why but at the same time, idk as well. it's just really hard to explain, maybe it's the december air(?) but yeah. it's just really refreshing to see this type of content from you and i would really appreciate it if you make more of these in the future, obvs no pressure. love you, stan!
I will!!! And yeah, sometimes, there’s no explanation :/ but we will pull through it! :)
There's something deep about the "Can you guys relate to that?" while people are crossing the street. But really, mood makers need support as well!
Watching your vlogs is really such a stress reliever for me all the time. This one particularly made me feel better, coz I realized I am not the only one who feels this kind or degree of anxiety where you over analyze things and it just fcks up your overall mental health, it just paralyzes you all the time. My struggles are validated by watching this vlog.
One thing Stan! You are making progress in loving yourself and it’s always the first step that we think we really be loving ourselves but acceptance is THE BEGINNING like omg we love you for you and do not take the pressure of doing good 👍 cuz maaaan you really do be the priority . Take time and we’ll be moving together on this journeyyyy❤❤❤❤❤
AAHH THANK YOU BESTIE!!! 🥹🥹🥹
My mental health is the hot mess express atm and doing things to reduce anxiety but them instead causing more anxiety is my entire existence rn 😭 but you openly talking about it is honestly so encouraging 💕💕 we're here for you as you are!
the juxtaposition of Black and white~ jk YOU LITERALLY NEVER OPEN UP THIS DEEP IM JEALOUS OF THE STANS STANS
Thank you for sharing your feelings with us! I just wanna say that we accept you in any way and you don’t have to keep up with that «perfect» version of yourself.I’ve been struggling with anxiety too recently but your videos always comfort and make me feel safe!!
Remember that we love you so so much Stan ❤️
honestly in a world where everyone acts tough, acts confident 24/7… to show emotions and vulnerability is truly a strength. the ability to be vulnerable is a superpower in itself tbh. it takes courage to show emotions and show vulnerability rather than covering them up and “acting” strong/tough.
stan!! i really appreciate the way you approached the topic of mental health :D i’ve also been struggling and i hate being vulnerable, but for me it’s because i have a fear of bothering other people and losing them because of my issues yk? sometimes i feel like ppl just misunderstand me and start treating me like i’m fragile or they invalidate and misunderstand the way i feel and that just breaks the friendship (or any sort of relationship) altogether. but at the same time i’m socially anxious so maybe that’s why i think that💀
everything aside, to you and whoever is reading this, let’s get through this together! WE GOT THIS GUYS
9:51 STAN😭😭 wtf (slayed🤪)
You’re the most relatable RUclipsr I’ve come across … I love you. Thank you for always making Wednesday my favorite day of the week.
Hang in there….you got this 🥹
HSHAHHAHAHA
❤️🙁
I'm glad that Stan can be open about his problems with his viewers, especially his mental health. I hope you get the help u need stan! You have inspired me and many others !! :) One more thing I love how you address multiple topics and deliver a message to spread awareness. Love you videos stan , stay strong
I really adore how open you are and keep on adressing mental health in your videos, remembering the time I first saw your video "watch this if you're insecure" (which I never knew I needed cause anxiety is eating me up) after watching that I started to check your other videos then here I am a Stan Stan who always wait for wenesday to come. Watching your videos actually helped me to come out of my comfort zone step by step and not be afraid of being myself. Love you Stan hoping for you to get better soon, let's prioritize our mental health 💗
Stan we absolutely dont expect you to be perfect ! you're not perfect, we're not perfect, nobody is ! waking up and sitting on your phone, getting up at 10am, literally just not being productive is also good sometimes. As someone that works a 9-5 and has deteriorating mental health i can tell you these things are so normal for most people, it's just another form of catching up with yourself and giving yourself a moment, if anything i WISH i had more time to rest but my lifestyle doesn't allow it. In your case literally just skip a filming day and stay in bed, we will still be here when you skip an upload !
the shot at 8:10, where you ask after explaining the real as fuck difficulty with living with depression and anxiety, “can you guys relate to that?” while people start walking all around you. idk that just really moved me. im probably being dramatic but i feel like including that moment really symbolizes how it feels to be anxious and/or depressed especially after a life-altering event
i grew up with a lot of similar expectations on me as u did. love u stan. we’ll make it, one day at a time.
Stan honestly thank you so much for opening about mental health, it brought me soo much comfort that even the brightest person can be struggling just like all of us too 💕
I can totally relate! Literally telling my life story. My anxiety is so bad that one time I spiraled out so badly I literally fainted. I hope you find away to embrace and manage you're anxiety (I'm still trying). Love you
Bestie I totally understand what you’re going through with your mental health!! anxiety sucks but just be patient with yourself, slow down , take a time for yourself and believe me; things will get better!
Te amo bebe 💗
i’m going through a lot of emotions right now in life, sadness, happiness, nervousness and many more i can’t keep up with all my emotions but your videos calm down all my emotions and my thoughts to the point i don’t focus on the bad in life i focus on the good.
i hope that whatever your going through is curable!!
Thank you for this video Stan. I've been dealing with Anxiety and I'm slowly working on it. It's nice to get the resources and the help we need to get better. Hope you're doing better. I enjoy watching your videos as they cheer me up every morning.
Sending you all the strength :)))
Hi Stan, thank you so much for being open with us and telling us whats going on. Most people online cover up their feelings and are not real with us so making a video about this is really nice and I hope it will inspire others,
For me, talking about my feelings was the hardest thing to do. My friends and family see me as tough and strong but in reality, I can be very self contuse sometimes and I felt like no one understands me. Then, over quarantine, I was forced to talk about my feelings. Even though I felt somewhat embarrassed, people finally understood me and It made quarantine a whole lot better. (btw, if you ever need to talk to someone, your community is always here to help you. 💕)
I love how you articulate your thoughts. Discovered you last week and I cannot stop watching all your vlogs! I also had depression when I was your age. I am now 36 and have been better ever since. I hope it will be well for you soon. Love, love.
I've also been struggling with anxiety and even depression. A person who was so special to me, and was super close to me, decided to act like i don't exist anymore, and broke up with me. It's been so difficult, and I've been told he called me a bitch, even though he was the one that hurt me and the one that left. I've been getting anxiety attacks, I've been under so much stress, sometimes I'm unable to sleep, but your videos always cheer me up Stan. You, and your personality always light my day up ❤️ Thank you for being my light, in this dark time right now. We've all got this, and we're strong ❤️
I watch your videos when I'm down. It really helps to cheer me up ❤️ Anyone, regardless of ANYTHING can suffer from poor mental health. Talking about mental health is brave in itself.
7:45-8:11 I relate so much and it's been happening for too many months now 😖
It takes courage to do what you do. You inspire many. I don't think the world has seen you yet but you're a leader and destined to lead many. Thank you
Hey stan just a lil reminder from a 20 yr old figuring life.... It's ok to be vulnerable sometimes, it's not weakness.....!! You will be fine....!! Just know that you have hundreds of thousands of people who love you ❤❤
Whenever i watch ur videos, they always makes my mood light up and seeing u talk about something like this actually makes me relate too. We all struggle in life and mental health is really not easy to handle. Im so proud of you for opening about this topic cuz it also helps other people! Thank you for this stan, i hope you are feeling much better now❤
Thank you Stan for being open to everyone. Your channel definitely feels so welcoming to everyone. Anxiety can be something very hard to face and everyone faces it differently. I’ve been an over thinker, and easy to panic for years now but hearing that there always a way to find comfort also help feels good. I enjoy your content very much from the crazy energy to the chill videos it’s very enjoyable and also feels real. Thank you Stan for sharing your world to us
This just made me realize and made me think about my mental health, and admitting that I'm struggling is the first step and think of what's causing the stress. What I do is have a "me time" as much as we have people we love or care about, stepping back and just doing something for yourself; do what makes you happy is not a bad thing. Thanks for sharing, BTW you're amazing!!! 😄
hi stan! im honestly so happy you talked about this because i've been struggling with anxiety too lately. i feel like this video popped up at the perfect time, it's so refreshing to find someone that i can relate to. thank you so much for blessing us with your content, as always, and i love u !!!
I agree with everything u said in this video, anxiety shouldn't stop you from trying to go out and have a good day! always do what you think is best for yourself and don't care about what other people are telling you to do 😌! I also love the new style of vlog the cooking segment at the end was very fun :)!!
Thank you for being so open with us, I haven't watched many people that talk openly about their mental health I was in the same place about a year ago , I hope you feel better soon ❤️, have a good day 😊
Growing up without any proper care and attention from my parents and family, I have no one to talk to about my feelings and problems so I already adopt this mechanism to keep all these thoughts by myself. Figure out things by myself. Until now, It is still difficult for me to communicate my feelings with my husband. Early in the relationship I kept giving him the silent treatment whenever I feel something wrong and it just gave him too much anxiety. Now, I am trying to be expressive and I want to communicate to others more about what I feel. Thank you Stan for sharing this, its just a relief to see that we are all working to be much better each day.
i admire how you open up and i fully trust that what you say is true. can’t live life afraid of other people’s false honesty ❤️
I've been having a really tough time with anxiety and stress lately too so the timing of this video could not have been better. It makes me feel so much better knowing that I am not the only one going through it atm 🥰
I really liked that you pointed out some things about anxiety , I think it's eye opening to ask yourself why do you have anxiety. After doing therapy for a while understanding how my brain works and what s anxiety and how it can manifest,I felt better ,but it's a lot of work, not impossible tho, and in the end worth it.
I think it’s okay to show that we’re not always okay and it’s fine 😊 reaching for help is such a great step to do so i’m so happy for you!! ❤
Hello Stan, thank you for opening up about mental health issues! I discovered your channel while I was conscripted in the ARMY (it's compulsory 🥲 14 months...) and a notification every Wednesday from your channel was a highlight for my whole week, and it still is!
As someone also struggling with anxiety, it's nice to have even more things I can relate on with my fav creator!
Ur the perfect example of the most realistic person In youtube fr 💜 I just love your videos and just everything you do 💕 ur really someone who we can ...feel connected to ! Be urself and ..win more hearts 🤍💯
Thank youu sooo much!! 😭😭❤️❤️❤️
My pleasure 😭💕🤌🤍
I relate to everything you've said about your mental health in this video. I feel for you and I'm glad you brought it up!
I feel it's not being talked about up as much now that the world is opening up.
I haven't even watched yet, but it's okay to not be okay! And I so appreciate you being open and vulnerable with your mental health and queerness, because it brings so much comfort to all the rest of us who relate on such an intimate level. Also... I love your channel! 😝
I'm not sure how to word this but anxiety can show up in different life situations and how it affects everyone is personal. Obviously there's some universally thought indications of it but still its not the same for everyone.
You are not weaker or less of capable because someone else didn't get anxiety over the same thing they also went through. I actually think there might be a lot of people that don't realise they might be experiencing anxiety and because it got better in a timeframe they are ok with, it never occurred to them to be that.
Some of the sucky feely thingies* we go through in life are kind of made into pathological thinking of it - could be because of this extremely efficient driven society we live in. So to make yourself "back to normal" in less of a time, you need to take medicine. Caution: not the case for everyone. Some poeple need the medication to help themselves through and as a first step to even make the changes in their lives that help them
I'm proud that you decided to listen to yourself and seek help. Also that you make do things in your way and shared this with us. I'm sure there are people who haven't yet realised they are also going through anxiety filled chapter and you sharing these thoughts possibly also helps them to realise that.
I'm also a overthinker and don't want to share that I need help and go through stuff. "I want to fix myself and not make everyone else that they need to fix me". I'm also not that in tune with my emotions cause of alexithymia so I have no idea if there's need for change.
What has helped me with anxiety:
-first to acknowledge it
-make peace with it "Yeah I'm feeling anxious but it will be there no matter what I do so let's just keep going and do stuff I need to do" - I also feel a lot better once I have done the stuff which gives me positive feedback
- constant pats over shoulder
- give myself time and endless opportunities "small process and set backs help you find your way of doing things and eventually it'll prosper into strategies that help you in the long run"
- giving breaks "for me as a form of doing stuff I really like but have quilt tripped not to do previously (playing games, drawing, baking, reading etc.)"
If you can I also suggest to surround yourself with people whom you feel comfortable with. Maybe you can give them an opportunity to help you. - made that step recently (week ago) and it was a tiny shit show but it has in my case already helped a ton.
Writing a diary in a more timely manner is my next step. So I can find out what is rambling in my head and in the last sentences "talk" to myself in a more kind manner of the things.
I'm not sure if anxiety will ever go away and that's not the goal here. The goal is to find ways that help you keep anxiety at bay and to realise your own "symptoms" when to seek help when your own tools don't work anymore.
*Didn't mean to make those experiences less of a serious thing. More as a way to ease the way of writing about it.
Thank you for being open about your mental health, I know it isn't easy. I also have to put up this 'front' of always being happy and outgoing, I have a 'customer service voice' I put on at work but people don't realize I have clinical depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, body dysmorphia and more which stem from trauma from childhood abuse. You got this and if anyone else is reading this, hang in there, it's okay not be okay. You don't have to prove yourself to anyone but please don't give up on yourself.
Stan, I admire how brave it is from you to open towards us, your viewers telling us what you going through these last months so thank you for letting us know, keep going queen, we love you and take care! ps: I love these kind of videos where you can talk about yourself and what is happening .
A big hug 💗
im so glad you could open up with us, lately i have been in a very rough spot with my mental health but your videos have been helping me get back on track, thank you sm stan i hope you get the help you need!
Yeah the struggle after recovering from a major surgery!! Finding your spark is not easy, when you have spent so much time on a certain routine and suddenly you don't have to focus your energy on recovering/ keeping up the recovery routines anymore... I wish you a good time, you seem like a person who spends a lot of time self-reflecting so that definitely could make finding the spark again somehow even harder, idk even why...
These types of day in the life/vlogs/hanging out in Tokyo (or anywhere tbh LOL) are my absolute FAVORITE from u stan
AAAHHH!!! I should make more then! :-)
@@worldofxtra STAN omg I love you please do I rewatch them all the time!!
Videos like this are amazing. All of us who follow you know who you are though so don't worry about over explaining yourself all the time. Like when you say youre not trying to be praised for being open about your mental health etc. We all know you're just opening up and none of us will take it a negative way :)
I love how sappy the video this week if that makes sense. We love you Stan and thank you for making my/our week bearable, ALWAYS 🫶🏼❤️
😭😭❤️
hi stan! u are in fact very smart and strong because not all people just take care of their feelings, going out and afront ur emotions is something that took me years to do, you are doing an excelent job and even if there are some days that u will have a huge meltdown it’s okay, it’s part of a process. I hope u feel better soon
I have anxiety, have had panic attacks at night (very fun), i know the puffiness in the chest, constant thoughts that cripples and overwhelms, the thing that helped me was being a bit more positive, anxiety makes you think the worst is going to happen, all you need to do is be positive and think something good or even the best is going to happen, turn the fear into excitement.
Thank you very much for making this video, it made me feel relief and less alone, if someone as dope as you can have anxiety i sure heck can
Also i think you have anxiety because you have so much to lose - a successful career, a loving family, a lot of good friends and ofcourse the love of your life
A fun thing you could do is try donating + its Christmas season, giving away something could make you feel okay in losing stuff
Hope you slayy anxiety and i really love your videos :p
Stan please remember everyone is human so it's alright to show the world how you really feel, not feeling and struggling is normal that's something everyone goes trough once in a while.
This video was all I needed rn. I've always had anxiety about my femininity and though I try not to act different than what I am, I often end up anxious about it and overthink it. It makes me feel like everybody is judging even though I'm certain nobody gives a fuck. Lately I've been singing more often and my anxiety over my higher voice (which I love btw) is stopping me from improving my singing skill. Anyway, ly Stan! Take your time!! It might not help but meditating is so good for clearing your thoughts
i love these videos so much, you make good conversation and it's nice to hear what you have to say about topics like mental health. i especially agreed with your comment that after big life changes, it's difficult to find your "spark" again, so it's necessary to reevaluate your person and get to settling within the new you. i'm still trying to figure that out for myself since 2019, honestly. so, i wish you and anyone else going through this process good luck and good energy.
change is the only constant in the universe
hi stan! you're one of the reasons why i was able to get through the pandemic/lockdown and that's saying a lot considering how bad things were where I'm from. i was recently diagnosed with ADHD, bipolar disorder type II, anxiety AND depression klflaksfba;pfdgb and while medication did help, i wanted a more holistic approach! I've been doing evening walks, eating more veggies, and trying to get better quality sleep! --- not to mention watching your shorts and videos have been godsend!
wishing you all the best stan!

Being able to show our vulnerabilities IS being strong. Everything you said in this video is true. Thanks for opening up I relate so much!
Please more videos like this 😆 they are soo chill, and they honestly are very therapeutic and relaxing, i love watching them very nostalgic it’s giving blonde stan era 🫶🏻
tbh you are one of the most active youtubers who is honest with their fanbase and always speaks their truth. that is something i aspire to be. and i hope you'll get better :)
Been struggling with my mental health too lately, going to the doctor next week. Its nice to hear people talk about mental health, we got this 💪💪
Omg, at 5:51, you basically explain the problem I’ve had my entire life. Nice to know someone else is suffering from it to
Honestly what makes you different than other youtubers I've followed through the years is that I have never had an issue as seeing you as a person. I always thought that's what you presented to the camera, I think its your authenticity that made that possible if anyhting.
thank you for being open with us about your mental health🫂 i also think it's showing of strength if person is able to talk about their «imperfect side».
im aslo struggling with anxiety as well as apathy recently, but i cant bring myself to talk about my mental health with parents, friends and psychologist.. not yet.
however i've started to read books abt phychology and im trying to better understand myself and what stands for my such behaving. i guess after a bit self-work i will finally be able to talk to someone about it.
i think it's very important to show others that every single person is not perfect, and any problems with mental health can be solved😊
i hope you will get better soon💕💕

This was very relatable- ever since I ended a certain relationship with a certain PUSHY guy, I don’t feel like myself anymore. Like right when I pushed those insecurities away, they came back because of the guy. And with insecurities rising again, my anxiety has too. I hope we can both get back on track to our true selves without anxiety pulling us down. Love ya 💜💜💜
