    Also take it easy on yourself, you are stronger than you know and this too shall pass. I don't know where your faith stands, however take this as a time to either connect or reconnect with God. Even in your low he is holding you ever so gently in his arms. One set of footprints. You got this!!!

    Sending you good vibes. I know we Caribbean people say talk to God and you can, but it also helps to talk to a mental health or medical professional. It really helps. The holiday season is particularly hard emotionally so don’t be too hard in yourself.

    Shanique, I have been watching your videos since pre Dee, pre name change, pre baby . I’ve seen you transitioned through the years. We go through changes and seasons and I can tell you that this too shall pass. Hold on to tighter to God, He’s got you. Your internet peeps have also got you. Happy holidays and all that’s best for the coming year❤🎉!.

    You are one of the loveliest RUclipsrs I watch. I wish you peace and I hope you will be gentle with yourself during this period. Don’t let the self critical voice get the better of you. Practice self compassion. Be as compassionate with yourself as you would if someone you loved was going through a similarly rough period.

    I highly recommend therapy it helped me when I was in a funk. Also I don’t know your life but I know for me finding a hobby helped. Knitting club, Zumba, spin class. Sometimes we get so wrapped up being a mom and not really finding time to do the things we love /fufilled by THAT ARENT WORK-related, that we lose our individual self. I also reconnected with some old friends. I feel like I have a small community now outside of just my family. It’s nice!

    Everything will work out! Women are resilient. You are NOT alone. We all are feeling a way. I haven’t done any Christmas anything (my son is 24 though lol). I watch a Christmas movie or two over a few days just to keep on par with the season.
    Your hair is gorgeous! I wish that I were closer. I’d do it for you! I had a client in Toronto since I was coming up for a class. I’m in Schenectady, NY… closer to Montreal… waaaaaaay on the other side.
    I’d love to have a hair get-together over there. I can partner with a Curly Salon /Curlfriend over that way.
    We’re all surrounding you with virtual hugs! Don’t feel pressured to push when you just want to rest. ❤

    I completely understand what you are feeling. I had a period, and still have it at times, where I feel, incedibly low, and usually for me it's either that I'm stagnant in life, not having a socail life (because of how I feel or beeing too busy) and/or family situation, all of these usually causes me to isolate (even more than normal). If any of these sounds familiar then some of the things that would help me was starting to list things that i've alwayes wanted to do but that I was pushing off for the longest and started making plans on what I would need to do them and setting up a date. Finding a new hobby could also help, or just doing something different than what you are used to.
    Also, I've always have gotten the impression that you are a high achiever, which can come with alot of demands and being hard on yourself. If that's the case, situations when you are feeling low/depressed etc can make it worse especially if you don't understand what is causing it, so don't be too hard on yourself. Think of it like you are healing and listen to what your body is telling you that it needs and talk to a professional if needed.
    I truely pray that you will feel better soon

  • @CierraHatley

    your hair is just like mine. i also sleep on my right but sometimes the hair will look longer on either side depending on the style. Also i hope you feel better! I pray your mental health and whatever other areas of your life turn around for the better soon. Try to have a different perspective even in hard times! There is no point of over romanticizing the past versions of yourself so much, because the you now has so much worth too! Identify what you want to change in yourself but give yourself grace, its ok

    Hi girly, I second with most of the comments - pray, pray, pray. Also, try doing daily mild to moderate cardio exercises while deep breathing the entire time - this has done wonders for keeping my mental stability and has help me manage my life as a single parent of 2. I got a treadmill to make things convenient . Good luck to ya.

    If you’re able to please get a therapist. It has helped me out a lot in the past. Also, if you have a stress reliever, I.e. working out, that you can do, at least once a week, this can help as well. Finally, I’ve meditated off and on since I’ve been a teenager. It has helped me out in so many ways.God Bless and best of luck to you.

    Hi Shanique,
    Though your faith status is uncertain to me I wanted to just let you know that GOD sees/knows your needs. HE is a Promise Keeper and HE’LL never allow you to do this thing called life alone. No matter what challenges you may face always lay your burdens at HIS feet and I promise you HE will give you rest and see you through. Oftentimes, (I’m guilty of it as well) we tend to be our own worst critics but give yourself some grace. You are amazingly beautiful and wonderfully made and the Daughter of a King. GOD loves you so much. Lean on HIM if you haven’t done so for strength, comfort, and guidance. ALL things are possible with HIM and through HIM. Prayer is a powerful weapon I encourage you to go to a posture of prayer and maintain it throughout and even after this wilderness season you’re experiencing. Weeping may endure for a night but joy does come in the morning. Your Son is so adorably handsome. GOD bless you and keep you both forevermore 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
