    Not even half way through but "im quite bad at facilitating my own happiness" hit home. I think that is true for so many of us in the world. Because I'm an introvert I thought quarantine would be a breeze. But so much of my happiness is dependent on certain things happening for me or specific interactions. Happiness is work not an automated experience which I forget sometimes.

      i feel like doing something _in spite of_ quarantine is hard as shit, and there's better things to do than beating yourself up because you couldn't do something while the world was kinda ending a little, it's cool imo. but also mood i fell out of practice of drawing big time

    • @marmina1283
      @marmina1283 3 года назад +4

      yeah but we also have this concept of time that isn't really that true. not all time is the same. the time we spent or are spending in quarantine is such a hard time to live, you wouldn't compare it to time with friends, where you had inspiration and you were always learning because there were always new things and people around you. I'm not saying you can't do great things while quarantined but you shouldn't beat yourself up for not being a good version of yourself

    it hit deep hearing you say you're not that great at facilitating your own happiness, because it made me realize i only really smile when i'm talking to someone or distracting my thoughts with tiktok or video games, etc. a couple of days ago i realized while watching tiktoks that i was laughing and immediately stopped after it was over. i asked myself if i was okay out loud and started to cry, which kinda scared me. being introverted, i though quarantine would be easy for me, but with school starting back up i realized just how much i missed being around my friends or even around immature people in class that used to get on my nerves. being alone with my thoughts scares me sometimes, because it's just me and my self deprecation most of the time. on the bright side, i have learned some things about myself during quarantine and have become the tiniest bit more confident, which feels great!

    I had a dream last night I met you in a train. It’s been years since I watched your videos. I was so excited and told you that I loved your videos growing up. You said you were happy to hear it and had been thinking about why you make videos anymore. In case you are actually thinking about this, know you work is amazing and so impactful. Even if you never make a video again, the ones you made have been amazing.

    The first month was quite easy for me since I'm an introvert who enjoyed spending time alone with myself but then I slowly started getting lonlier and lonlier and that's when depression hit hard. It got to the point where I'd cry atleast three times a day. I guess I just didn't know how to keep myself happy. But now I've been keeping myself busy, trying new things and feel so much better.

    I’ve found the space in my brain really suffocating, been in and out of intense existential crisis and really struggling to know what I’m doing with my life and time and finding the future terrifying. It’s nice to see I’m not alone in struggling to facilitate my own happiness, I’ve had no outside inputs to my happiness and it’s been incredibly hard. Also feeling incredibly lonely, haven’t seen anyone except for my 3 immediate family members since March 20th and now can’t because mental health has meant I’ve not kept contact with my few friends and because of local restrictions I can’t see the one person I have been able to keep in contact with. I left year 11 this summer and I had so much cool stuff planned. I’m struggling at the moment, and I love reevaluating but I’ve been doing it for months, I’m not getting anywhere and I’m driving myself slightly insane. This whole thing just sucks, but this was a great video because I really related to quite a lot of it.

  • @dana23299
    @dana23299 3 года назад +2

    Thank you for this video. I feel like i've re-evaluated a lot of things about myself and people during lockdown. I started to look at many things differently. Most people I know didn't seem to take it as an opportunity to reflect, but were kinda just waiting for it to be over to resume their ordinary lives. I do keep thinking about facilitating my own happiness, whether some things actually make me happy, or it's just the familiarity of it all. I find myself thinking about what energy I wanna surround myself with after so long, needing things and people that will feed me positive energy. I've always been an introvert, but I guess normality for me has changed.
