I can relate to this, currently I’m stuck in the “nothing really matters” mode because I had attached so much worth to possessions. I know it will be hard to make this a new normal and to find a healthy balance but watching this is reassuring because if on your scale you are finding balance, then how could I not? I appreciate your vulnerability & I’m happy to see you smile 💜
Exactly! Dentists are Dr.s, Chiropractor’s are Dr.s, Professors can be even be Dr.s. Just because people are Dr.s doesn’t always mean they are medical Dr.s. 💕
i’m so happy that she is so transparent with us, and she waits until she is ready to share. i’m so happy that you are opening up about your struggles hoping to help others gabi you are amazing.
girl, completely honestly, i started checking out from your channel about a year ago because it was "pick me" vibes.. but THIS reeled me back in. be genuine, be you, im here for it. and alllll the respect in the world to you for owning your shit.
Well done for realising you have a problem and doing something about it. I have my own shopping demons. I found that practicing gratitude helps, but when you couple that with being genuinely happy for other people, recognising that what they (appear to) have does not take away from you in any way. For me, that was the key to contentment.
This is so relatable! I was always "rewarding" myself OR I had a rough day so I needed to "treat myself" and like you mentioned, was just super impulsive. It all boiled down to my mental health and once I received the right diagnosis this year and started getting treatment everything changed. I love how relatable you can be ! Thanks for this video
Thank you for sharing girl!!! Quarantine has definitely exposed our own demons since we have had to spend so much time alone with ourselves. It’s really awesome that you can share and shed some light on how your mindset changed
As a fellow Christian, I think that realization during the shopping spree was a sign from God that the impulsive spending had to be gone in order for you to not only be happier, but to help show you that life is not about materialistic things. You have truly grown up from who you used to be! ❤️
The term Doctor is given to someone who has earned a doctorate degree. Dentists are doctors, they earned that title. I had a highschool principal who had his doctorate and he went by Dr. _____
Gabi is such an inspiration for sharing this crucial message treat yourself always have a budget and seperate your spending habits! Brilliant that she has opened up about this addiction as can be common! 💜💫🎥
Nothing can buy good health or peace and I think that’s the ultimate happiness. I think you realized that… that is what you had been searching for and it’s not in a luxury mall, it’s at home with your loved ones which you are blessed to have.
This is what I have came to realise as I have gotten older that happiness, content cannot be bought. Just filling a void. Now I treat myself to what I need feel so much more satisfied. Life is about home - that cosy, warm feeling - and loved ones! 💫🧡🎥
Thank u so much Gabi for bringing awareness to so many topics. Mental health, addictions etc. Your vlogs always cheer me up on a gloomy day. You and Niki are my favorite youtubers
I love to see you open up about this, to see how much you've been opening up and showing your true colors in your videos as the years have gone by. You've definitely grown and matured a lot and that is so amazing and empowering to see!
Gabi, I used to think my worth came from how much I possessed too. I was at a low place in my life and it put into perspective what truly matters in life. My family and people that I love and the memories I make with them.
Yeah mental health can be so challenging. I’ve spent the entire day crying just because I feel like everyone is purposely trying to not help me at stores and such. Ugh I’m glad you had that realization and I’m so happy you’re doing Ohk. Love you
You seem so much more down to earth now gabi, I relate to your story time so much! Thank you for sharing and just know that you aren’t the only one struggling at times. Sending love
It’s very easy to assign too much worth to possessions, and it can definitely be a fine line between treating/rewarding yourself and having a problem. Glad you’re doing better and feeling better. I’ve definitely noticed that you do less and smaller hauls now.
I love when you get deep like this. Its so inspiring 🙌 and gives me hope with dealing with my mental health. Im from lehigh valley too so I can really understand where ur coming from. Mental health is so important to talk about and im happy you have opened up about it alot more! Your doing great and I know things will only go up from here! Love your videos!
I am grateful that I have the chance to make my family happy at Christmas bringing them all together at my house and decorating and cooking for them. And getting them something then need read wear want. That brings me joy.
Thank you so much I really needed this! I’ve been struggling with my shopping addiction…it’s really hard. I’m always like I need this and then buy it then regret it the next day like I really didn’t need it. So thank you for this!
Same, but it takes a bigger toll on someone who doesn’t have the economy for these episodes. But you gotta learn the hard way. Definitely am starting to save and hopefully in the future invest. Thank you for sharing ❤️ god bless you Gabi ❤️
If you declutter you should donate to fans!! I’d love to have a Gabi bag to take you with me every where I go!! I love you so much and I’m insanely proud.
I feel like I’ve been through this before when things are easily accessible it gets boring and I felt like you like I was shopping too much :( I love this message thank you 💕I def felt impulsive too 😭
I love Just how much Gaby has grown during this year, it has been hard and amazing for you, but you have also had given us such loving lessons ! I admire you more than ever, thank you 💖💖
Your hair is gorgeous! Ty for your story!! Omg bell bottoms! Shopping addiction has personally touched my life and it's rarely explored or discussed compared to other addictions, so any time I can learn literally anything about it it's so great! But yeah, you've got this!! :)
I think you are going in the right direction gab. I really admire your candidness here. U are totally right!! Gratitude and grace will always fill your soul more then stuff will!!
👏👏👏 haven’t watched it yet, but way to go Gabi!!! I’m sure it’s hard to open up about it. I support her on this new chapter, everything was so well said and put into words just right even for something heavy it still felt lighthearted
Takes emotional strength as shopping addiction, lifestyles are compared and judged constantly. Finding self worth and loving yourself is something that only you can do - brilliant that Gabi highlighted this message. Also support her being more genuine and honest on her channel as tough always transparent with us! 💫💜🎥
Gabi, I love and appreciate you being yourself!! You are an amazing and inspiring person keep doing what you love we're always here for you love you gab!!!💗💗
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!! I AM IN RECOVERY FROM SUFFERING FROM A SHOPPING ADDICTION. I HAVE SOLD MY EXCESS CLOTHINGS/BELONGINGS ON POSHMARK. I VOW TO MYSELF TO ONLY SHOP SECOND-HAND/NOT EMOTIONAL SHOP LIKE I USED TO. I SPENT ALMOST ALL MY $$ ON THINGS.. I APPRECIATE YOU GABI 🙏🏼💕
Gabi such an inspiration takes emotional strength to be open about such a taboo subject. The only way we can help each other is by sharing our experiences with one another! 🧡💫
Saying a dentist is not a doctor is like saying gynecologists, psychiatrists, surgeons, or cardiologists are not doctors. They’re all doctors specialized in different fields. I didn’t even know people actually thought that.
thank u for being so transparent with us💖this is definitely relatable and it’s awesome that you were able to have awareness and be honest with yourself 💖
I am going through so much mentally and I sometimes feel like I won’t escape but listening to you honestly makes me believe that I can be better and I can be ok again
I have watched y’all since I was young. It’s INSANE to see how much you and Niki have grown, y’all both are glowing so much here lately❤️ you’re both such inspirations to me and many others, keep making the content that y’all do!
Thank you for being so open about this. I’ve had that moment too in my life when I could have everything I thought I wanted and nothing made me happy. I was so depressed. I was in this fake world and didn’t know how to get out. It is really a sickness. Today I still want things but I question weather or not I really need them.
That's amazing the restraint is tough at times. Worth more in life than filling the void with material goods. Brilliant that Gabi been honest what caused the shopping addiction- such an important message! 💜💫
Thank you for making this video gabi , it has made me rethink my shopping and lifestyle choices . You have a big impact on your followers. And we love you 💟
I absolutely loved this video I can kinda identify , or really understand this, I love that you’re on this journey to better yourself and nothing in this world can fulfill our heart but God 💓 God bless u ☺️
Her being transparent with her life issues and struggles will help so many people 🙏🏾
Please make a “dumbest things I’ve bought in my 20s” video!!
she did one in quarantine❤️
@@emiliafarina4637 it’s called pandemic dummy. Quarantine is when you’re infected with the virus and have to isolate in a room. Smh
@@itsjorgeroblox1779 why are you so rude. Dam that person meant during quarantine because the whole world quarantine. Calm down
@@itsjorgeroblox1779 wtf… quarantine, isolation, your country being in lockdown it’s all similar things you sound so dumb
Yes please
I can relate to this, currently I’m stuck in the “nothing really matters” mode because I had attached so much worth to possessions. I know it will be hard to make this a new normal and to find a healthy balance but watching this is reassuring because if on your scale you are finding balance, then how could I not? I appreciate your vulnerability & I’m happy to see you smile 💜
Girl she went back to shopping the next week lol
me rn
I strongly dislike when people say that dentists aren’t doctors. Yes, they are doctors, they are oral doctors.
Exactly! Dentists are Dr.s, Chiropractor’s are Dr.s, Professors can be even be Dr.s. Just because people are Dr.s doesn’t always mean they are medical Dr.s. 💕
Yes!! Exactly!
@@Roxie709 I know like dr is just a tittle from a Doctorate even engineer get phd and stuff.
You mad huh
they are not doctors tho, they only study medicine around oral health, not a doctor as they do not hold a full doctorate degree
i’m so happy that she is so transparent with us, and she waits until she is ready to share. i’m so happy that you are opening up about your struggles hoping to help others gabi you are amazing.
I pray whoever sees this you’ll be successful in life ,God has a plan for you just trust the process and never give up God bless everyone 💕
You as well. I love these comments , especially when I'm down.
💞
Thank you
I was the 111th like😭❤️
Needed this!!🥺
girl, completely honestly, i started checking out from your channel about a year ago because it was "pick me" vibes.. but THIS reeled me back in. be genuine, be you, im here for it. and alllll the respect in the world to you for owning your shit.
Next step might be giving back to society. Balance is everything ❤️
Amazing suggestion! 💜💫🎥
love it 🤍
I love how honest she is with her life
Same

Oh geez…smh
Yeah but even if you are not a Christian, it was still a sign, god or not
@@itsjorgeroblox1779 okay shake your head all you want it’s not doing anything to this amazing commenter
I agree,🤍

The term Doctor is given to someone who has earned a doctorate degree. Dentists are doctors, they earned that title. I had a highschool principal who had his doctorate and he went by Dr. _____
Yes girl! My cousin is a college professor and she has a doctorate and goes by Dr. and my elementary school principal did as well.
Same here! He went by dr as well
My sister has her doctorate in physical therapy. She doesn't go by "Dr." but she could if she wanted haha
My principal does too! Dr knight is her name- pretty cool lmao
yes! my mom has her doctorates in psychology. Her title is Dr.
I love Gabi's transparency. She is so honest in this vlog
Shows that Gabi really cares about her viewers as sharing her experience so that we can learn for ourselves and others 💫💙
My step dad passed away in May, I was eating to just eat. I was buying dumb things. I feel this so much.
also i’m sorry for your loss 💔
My dad passed away in may too I’ve been spending so much since then
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH! ILY! this is such a deep and incredible message.

*now let me show you my new clothes!*😂
That's what I was thinking 🤔
Me
I said the exact same thing LOL
And she’s still shopping like who needs to shop that much every week
Love how reflective you are! Gratitude is the best foundation to not only create what you want but to truly enjoy life.
that damn intro - gives me chills every time
It’s very easy to assign too much worth to possessions, and it can definitely be a fine line between treating/rewarding yourself and having a problem. Glad you’re doing better and feeling better. I’ve definitely noticed that you do less and smaller hauls now.

I'm currently dealing with a shopping addiction. Its good to know I'm not alone when it comes to shopping
Dentists are doctors.
In Denmark it literally translates to “tooth doctor”
Thank you for being so open about this. I’ve had that moment too in my life when I could have everything I thought I wanted and nothing made me happy. I was so depressed. I was in this fake world and didn’t know how to get out. It is really a sickness. Today I still want things but I question weather or not I really need them.
That's amazing the restraint is tough at times. Worth more in life than filling the void with material goods. Brilliant that Gabi been honest what caused the shopping addiction- such an important message! 💜💫
This was so transparent. I thought it was a betterhelp ad and I was like oh ok but it wasn’t.
Michelle Phan taught me everything I know about makeup she is a LEGEND ♥️
Thank you for being so honest and vulnerable with us. We all love you more than you'll ever know. ❤️❤️

Love this talk! Staying focused on the moment rather than what others have is really great advice! Thank you 😘🥰💗
