But its so great to slowly be getting back to normal ish.. lol I hope you guys are enjoying the amazing reptile egg season we are having. I am so excited for things to start hatching soon! Remember to stay positive and be grateful! I will be wishing each of you the best for today! All your support has really help me get through this tough time and I can not thank you all enough! Remember we have the new MERCH here! teespring.com/stores/brian-barczyk-lucyivy-merch Love you all and see you tomorrow! Brian
good day sir! I hope you're getting better everyday. thank you for making my day awesome and I hope you're having a great day too. the ivy shirt is so cool. love and support from the philippines.
Thank so Saif and I ditto your statement. I love all people and am one of the most empathetic people you’ll ever meet. Some days are hard, but life is beautiful. Find something you love and go after it! For me, it’s having a reptarium like Brian. I’m at the very beginning of my journey/dream and have severe anxiety issues ever since a couple traumatic times I’ve experienced the last few years. But working with snakes makes it all go away. It took me 3 years of people telling me how beneficial meditating is for anxiety before I tried it. They were right. Meditation during an anxiety attack or just a day of nonstop anxiety really puts a pause on that HORRIBLE feeling. TRY IT. IT WORKS. Search “anxiety meditation” on google or RUclips. The only thing you’ll regret is not doing it sooner
As a disabled person from being Bipolar I want to say ty for sharing. Its hard to explain to others what its like for me so having you share your experience makes me feel much better about being me sometimes. A lot of good days but so many bad ones. Even 1 good day out of 30 reminds me that I have everything I need in life and look forward to that 1 special day where I can be myself again. Love you and all you have done.
Thank you for being so real. I suffer with mental health and the more that people talk about it and acknowledge it makes such a difference. Wishing you well ❤️
Oh Brian, I do empathise with you in your struggle and hope that it won't be too long before you are feeling very much better. Through personal experience, I have found that keeping busy is half the battle - there is ALWAYS light at the end of that tunnel. I find also that watching your channel, seeing all the beautiful animals you care for, really cheers me up on a gloomy day! Love from Scotland, UK
So glad youre still posting daily. I cant imagine how tough it might be some days but I love watching your videos. I love the egg pulling and cant wait for the egg cutting. Any time I have a rough day I go into my snake room and just play with my snakes. Its such a calming feeling. Like you always say we will get through this together. Keep up the good work.
Brian, you are so right! Being kind and sincere to everyone is great for both sides-one never knows the path an other is walking. Positive energy coming your way. Love the vlog and the podcasts. Take courage in the thousands of fans who stand solid with you. Love to you!!
You keep doing what you need to do. Problems are a part of our lives. You show us your life every day. Makes sense that we hear the problems along with the good stuff. Makes you more relatable.
Brian never think you are boring us. You pay to talk to a therapist, but listen g to you is free therapy for all of us. As hearing how you doe things that help you is all good stuff that helps others through what could be the same feeling. Keep doing what your doing, and I pray that you soon pass from these feelings.
I hope you have a great day Brian! I’m struggling today with my anxiety, I need some positive vibes ugh! However, I love the new Ivy and Lucy shirt I hope there will be some left next week when I can grab one 😍
I'm glad you're feeling a little better. You got this. I know it's not always easy but it will get better. Just keep doing what you love. We are all here for you.
Don’t ever think you’re boring you are not boring and never have been it’s ok to open up and talk and it’s ok to not be ok. Stay safe Brian and thank you for everything you do for us❤️
Thank you for giving us an update on how you're doing, I've had you in my thoughts. My nephew (5yrs old), who lives with me just brought up his cuddly toy lizard and toy crocodile up, so they can watch you too. He was surprised that Bella, Didi and Dixie ate bananas.
Brian, you are helping end the stigma associated with mental health. Thank you for showing up. You are sick, not weak. I also struggle with anxiety and depression. The one thing that makes me feel the most happy is when I go for a walk in the forest with my girlfriend, her daughter and our dog Rielly.
Brian please keep updating us on your mental health, honestly knowing I’m not alone with anxiety issues is oddly comforting. Today is not a good day, chest pains from anxiety, irregular breathing... it’ll get better as it will with you. I look up to you so so much for many reasons please don’t change your passion for the things that are important to you, it shows people like me there will be a light at the end of the tunnel.
Brian I hope you continue to get better as each day passes. Just know that it is ok when the bad days hit. You’re a kind man and very genuine! I too suffer from anxiety and there are days I don’t get out of bed! It is rough. Hang in there! 💙
Ivy is looking awesome and I enjoyed watching Bruce working with the lizards and the training. Brian, I understand what ur going through and dealing with. It makes us human, when asking for prayers, support and going to counseling. We r ur family as well and will b here for you
Everyone deserves to be heard and understood, being a supporting ear, shoulder or otherwise to anyone that has struggles of any and all kinds. Love others as you want to be loved goes so much further than most realise, there are so many forms of love and I'm glad you know that you are one of many amazing people that have that from so many people xxx you are one of the few people I have on my bucket list to finally meet. When I finally get out and about, start traveling.
Brian, you are not alone, as there are so many of us who share mental health and the barriers that are put in front of us, that others can’t see. Thank for sharing your journey and your life and the haters out, can stay out there and we’ll pray for them and their own mental health that they haven’t acknowledged yet, that they feel they have to knock others down to feel good about themselves. Keep up the great work, we love you and the family. If you come to Oregon to go helping or check out big foot, we would love to meet ya all. Also, thank you for teaching this grandma it’s not to late to get over your fears. I have yet touched a snack yet. Loves to all of you!
Thank you again for advocating mental health again and letting people no that its ok to say your not OK stay strong you are so much stronger then you can ever imagine right now well done again for opening up
Brian, Mental Health is so difficult. I suffer from anxiety, depression and CPTSD. You are always so uplifting and I want to thank you for all you do and your positive vibes. Sending you a big virtual hug! Better days are ahead, hang in there! 💕💕💕💕
Yes Brain please keep us update on your recovery. It is so important for those that are going through the same thing to know they are not alone. 💝👍 God Bless
Good morning, Brian. You'll never know how your joy, positivity and all your beautiful animals have helped me through a lot of hard days. Anxiety, depression, ptsd and being extremely sick with covid-19. You've managed to keep me smiling and filled me with hope every day. I'm so grateful and blessed for this....thank you!!!! Have a fantabulous day. I pray God continues to bless you and your family today and always. ❤❤❤
Definitely update us!! Speaking for myself I have watched you for years now, I have never had a reptile but I love your upbeat positivity, I think that and my love and your love for all animals! You got this and will get through it. Thank you for sharing!!!
It really brings a smile to my face to see how passionate you are about animals, as someone dealing with mental health issues I totally get whats going on and infact reptiles can be a very good outlet. Just keep doing what your doing and caring about each and every animal you own, it will bring you joy and you will get through this more and more every day.
I am so inspired by your passion for what you do and your honesty..... you just don't know how many of us you have blessed just by being you... Thank you for your purpose and life!
i have nothing, no home , no business, not much friends and im depressed too. my failures over the years makes me really down too but at the end, i love my animals and family. those things makes me work harder and fight harder everyday. you have everything now compare to before. you should enjoy your success over the years and helping so many people like that cancer girl before. stay strong always brian.
Diddy and Dixie have definitely become my favorites at The Reptarium. Hope you're having a good day today. I wish I could give you a hug right now. But I definitely ordered one of each of the new "Free Hugs" shirts. So hope that makes you smile.
Keep me updated. It is so important to me for you to do that because it is part of your healing process. No, you won't bore me with anything you do. I love your energy, it makes my day to watch your vlogs and checking in. Keep up doing what you love. Cause Brian we love you.
Hi Bryan! I'm newer owning snakes and have watched your vlog for several months, and just wanted to thank you, your family, I really enjoy seeing Lori on your vlog, your crew are so neat!!! You guys inspire me to keep on and work harder! Please please keep updating us on how your feeling, I know for me it helped me to realize maybe I'm not the only one. Praying for you and your family!! Keep on keeping on, we're here for you!!!
YOU DO NOT BORE US WITH YOUR AXIETY UPDATES! I deal with major anxiety and haven’t heard from another human (since your video) that they felt the same way I do. I know anxiety exists in a lot of people but your video on your anxiety was a mirror to exactly how my anxiety feels. I need your updates. And what you do on RUclips has helped me more than I can explain. My dream is to be doing exactly what you are doing. I’m working my way there starting wiTH BP breeding. So please keep us updated on how you are doing and keep the videos coming because you will be and have been a huge part in my chase of the same dream you have. Also, your coconut substrate is AWESOME! I’ve ordered multiple times and try to use yours only if possible! Much love Brian from Milwaukie Oregon. I hope to meet you one day
Hi Brian just wanted to say hi. I’m also a mental health anxiety person. Watching you tube channels gives me escapism time. I know nothing about snakes but enjoy watching and learning. New things. Like you said it gives you escapism time. Wish I could send a photo but when my cat hears your voice she comes over to watch. Makes me smile. I’m also a banana monster God Bless you Brian keep praying get God on side
Brian, you asked so here goes. I would love to know others techniques to dealing with mental issues without medicating yourself into a mess. I personally have a baby toy I take with me everywhere. It one that you pull and it shakes as it shrinks back to normal. It just so happens to be a snake toy. Anyways, I find it helps me focus on something small when a panic attack makes everything explode. The feel of the material, the vibration action, is just enough to refocus and help with breathing exercises to calm me. Maybe you could do a separate small vlog about stuff like that? And yes, I love knowing you're ok mentally. Keep letting us know how it goes. You spread so much positive, it's nice to know even at a low point we can help others too! Thank you!
I'm here through all this anxiety with u Brian...hoping u can feel better soon...we both need a vacation after this shit down is over because I feel that it is a primary reason for the flare ups of the anxiety....when this is all over get urself a few days break...go enjoy urself with Lori, get both ur heads back to normal and visit ppl...again I hope u have a beautiful rest of the day and just remember, when ur down we are all here to help u back up...it's what we should do as decent ppl in this world...me and my family love ur videos and ur family..just keep taking care of urself and keep all us viewers in mind...we all have ur back..
Love and respect ya Brian! I too experience depression and anxiety. In the past I turned towards substances to attempt to self medicate! That led to a much worse outcome. What you are doing is exactly what I couldn't do. TALK to others and OPEN UP! It is nothing to be ashamed about. YES, grown men cry! We ARE human!!! Being open and transparent allows us to get the SHIT out of our heads. It helps immensely
Can’t wait to see you tomorrow and every day after that!!! Yes please on the M.H. Updates because we love you and want to be with you every step to support you through the all the times, not just the good ones but the tough ones too because that’s what friends do. You entertain and educate so enthusiastically, WE NEED YOU, and more good people like you. So take a deep breath and feel the love and hugs and prayers coming from all over the world for you Brian. Keep your head high and proud and happy and we’ll see you tomorrow!!! XOXO
Stay positive.. I deal with it on a daily basis. It is so scary ... i watch your videos each and every day... I'm here if u ever need to talk. Having someone to talk to helps when u cant take meds. And it just takes time. Be safe.
Hang in there Brian, we are all in this together. I have PTSD and General Anxiety Disorder and I get the up and down as I go though it to. It's always good to talk about it and it will help us out here and we can help supporting you. We hold each other up.
PLEASE keep us posted on your anxiety. My whole family suffers from it badly, but we can take meds. I hate so much that you cannot take meds to help you. Be blessed! Love ya Brian!
Thank you for the sweet message. And yes you deserve to get messages saying that we're with you Brian too. We all know that life can be challenging at times especially when you are dealing with mental health issues. I literally started to tear up when you said that you got to read our messages Brian. And I myself really appreciate it. Yes you are right we're going to get through it slowly but surely. Sending you great thoughts and prayers Brian and family members and friends as well. ☺👍👏🤟
Dearest Brian, thank you for your update, thinking of you, and hoping the better days begin to overtake the bad days, never put any pressure on yourself, just take it one day at a time..... Virtual hugs ❤️xx
My 14 year old son suffers from very bad anxiety and struggles feeling safe when he leaves the housed, your messages are such an inspiration to him, as he finally says, someone feels the same way I do, I’m not alone.
Please keep us updated!!!! You are an inspiration to me. I have been struggling with my mental health all my life and I recently had an experience that has truly impacted my mental state and it has been very hard for me to talk about it. I just thank you for sharing with us.
I love your vlogs. I have bad anxiety, panic attacks and depression and your videos help me just forget about the world for a little bit. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hey,Thanks Brian for keeping it going through all this. We are strong and get through all of it. Just officially lost my job,but been saving,so have a good cushion. Another small business down. But hopefully will be able to visit soon. Take care.
Brian ive been watching you for abt 4 years and i hope you feel better i deal with socail anxiety and i get thats its hard so i hope you feel amazing when you get better youve helped alot of people with your positivity and passion for what you do you are a great person keep up the good work
Yes Brian, please keep us updated as to how you are doing, it's good to talk. You are doing great and it's going to take time but you will come through this, positivity is the way to go. I find that doing something keeps you occupied and takes your mind off things, hang in there brian xx
Definitely would like to hear how you’re doing! My sister and I text constantly to help each other and one thing she came up with that I like, makes me smile, is we can’t give up and just quit life because what would come after ‘quit’!??? As we get through a tough day no matter how we feel or what we did or did not accomplish we made it through another day! Life is a gift no matter how tough! Living is success, especially with mental illness to deal with!! I’m super happy to see your blog each and every morning. You help me start off each day with a smile!! Thank you!!!
Thank you for the Update on how youre doing. Helps me get thru my days being able to join you every morning with the animals. Absolutely Amazing. Thank you again. And yes PLEASE keep us updated. Many positive vibes Brian. We Love You.
I like what you are doing with the animals, just make sure you take of yourself first because without you the animals there won't be happy so I'm sending you my prayers Brian Barczyk
I had a bad battle with my own anxiety yesterday and it's still on going but your videos help me and knowing that I'm not alone in my battle and that there are other people going through the same thing and we are all fighting together is just amazing. Thank you so much for making your videos Brian, I love snakes so much and you're just amazing! Keep doing what you are doing and I hope anyone who is going through mental health problems gets through it! You can do it, stay strong and be positive!!
My name is Cynthia I suffer from anxiety and depression to I take 5 meds a day to stay normal and I have high blood pressure and high heart rate and it makes me feel like I have ran a marathon but I would be sitting still. Love y’all! Thank you for all the amazing videos! 🥰
Everyday is a new chapter in your book. It's a blank space that you can fill in on your own way. And caring first for yourself is absolutely not selfish!
God man. You really help me out every day when I watch your videos and I know you go through a lot lately with your anxiety and it just helps me out so much to be able to see you do what you want to do and push that anxiety off your shoulders like it’s nothing but at the same time I know that it is the worst thing that can get a hold of you love you Brian
Always remember you are very loved! Thank you for continuing to push through and offer us these great videos even on the days it's hard as heck to get out of bed. There are many of us who understand how hard those days can be and we appreciate and recognize the victory when you still post a video no matter what. Hugs to all!
I've been given a emotional support dog from my sister and he has been helping me since he has been given to me almost a month ago, I've been suffering from mental health issues for many years, so I understand what you are going through and we can get through this and keep fighting together!
Keep us updated!! Things will be ok! I feel very similar to you and deal with some addiction issues but watching you talk helps me not feel so alone in life. Thank you for that
Massive love to you Brian, take things one day at a time, one hour at a time, one minute at a time if needs be and it will pass. Try to remember that there doesn't need to be a reason for anxiety and depression, it just happens sometimes and it's classic to feel guilty for being anxious and depressed. I speak from experience.

Thank you
Thank u Saif
Thank so Saif and I ditto your statement. I love all people and am one of the most empathetic people you’ll ever meet. Some days are hard, but life is beautiful. Find something you love and go after it! For me, it’s having a reptarium like Brian. I’m at the very beginning of my journey/dream and have severe anxiety issues ever since a couple traumatic times I’ve experienced the last few years. But working with snakes makes it all go away.

Sure, I can do this!
@@BrianBarczyk Thank you! (Also hello from Western Australia!)
Even I'm curious about it
Yes please ,! From Victoria Australia xx
Such a great idea
As a disabled person from being Bipolar I want to say ty for sharing. Its hard to explain to others what its like for me so having you share your experience makes me feel much better about being me sometimes. A lot of good days but so many bad ones. Even 1 good day out of 30 reminds me that I have everything I need in life and look forward to that 1 special day where I can be myself again. Love you and all you have done.
Yes, update us. Hope people understand that those of us who struggle can even have several great days and go back to a dark day
I like it
Whot?
Good Morning Barczyk Bunch!

Brian,
Thank you...
You have brought to light what thousands of other people are living day to day. Thank you...
Diddy and Dixie have definitely become my favorites at The Reptarium.
Hope you're having a good day today. I wish I could give you a hug right now. But I definitely ordered one of each of the new "Free Hugs" shirts. So hope that makes you smile.
Keep me updated. It is so important to me for you to do that because it is part of your healing process. No, you won't bore me with anything you do. I love your energy, it makes my day to watch your vlogs and checking in. Keep up doing what you love. Cause Brian we love you.

Hi Bryan! I'm newer owning snakes and have watched your vlog for several months, and just wanted to thank you, your family, I really enjoy seeing Lori on your vlog, your crew are so neat!!! You guys inspire me to keep on and work harder! Please please keep updating us on how your feeling, I know for me it helped me to realize maybe I'm not the only one. Praying for you and your family!! Keep on keeping on, we're here for you!!!
Hi Brian, yes keep us posted on how you are feeling. You are a great person with alot of love to give and you have a good heart.
Thank you so much Brian for being you. Mental health is top priority! You can’t pour from an empty cup so be sure to take care of yourself 😊
YOU DO NOT BORE US WITH YOUR AXIETY UPDATES! I deal with major anxiety and haven’t heard from another human (since your video) that they felt the same way I do. I know anxiety exists in a lot of people but your video on your anxiety was a mirror to exactly how my anxiety feels. I need your updates. And what you do on RUclips has helped me more than I can explain. My dream is to be doing exactly what you are doing. I’m working my way there starting wiTH BP breeding. So please keep us updated on how you are doing and keep the videos coming because you will be and have been a huge part in my chase of the same dream you have. Also, your coconut substrate is AWESOME! I’ve ordered multiple times and try to use yours only if possible! Much love Brian from Milwaukie Oregon. I hope to meet you one day
Hi Brian just wanted to say hi.
I’m also a mental health anxiety person. Watching you tube channels gives me escapism time. I know nothing about snakes but enjoy watching and learning. New things. Like you said it gives you escapism time. Wish I could send a photo but when my cat hears your voice she comes over to watch. Makes me smile. I’m also a banana monster God Bless you Brian keep praying get God on side
Brian, you asked so here goes.
I would love to know others techniques to dealing with mental issues without medicating yourself into a mess. I personally have a baby toy I take with me everywhere. It one that you pull and it shakes as it shrinks back to normal. It just so happens to be a snake toy. Anyways, I find it helps me focus on something small when a panic attack makes everything explode. The feel of the material, the vibration action, is just enough to refocus and help with breathing exercises to calm me. Maybe you could do a separate small vlog about stuff like that?
And yes, I love knowing you're ok mentally. Keep letting us know how it goes. You spread so much positive, it's nice to know even at a low point we can help others too! Thank you!
Brian saying he loves us made me feel like a parent just said they're proud of me, really got my feels sparked
I'm here through all this anxiety with u Brian...hoping u can feel better soon...we both need a vacation after this shit down is over because I feel that it is a primary reason for the flare ups of the anxiety....when this is all over get urself a few days break...go enjoy urself with Lori, get both ur heads back to normal and visit ppl...again I hope u have a beautiful rest of the day and just remember, when ur down we are all here to help u back up...it's what we should do as decent ppl in this world...me and my family love ur videos and ur family..just keep taking care of urself and keep all us viewers in mind...we all have ur back..
Love and respect ya Brian! I too experience depression and anxiety. In the past I turned towards substances to attempt to self medicate! That led to a much worse outcome. What you are doing is exactly what I couldn't do. TALK to others and OPEN UP! It is nothing to be ashamed about. YES, grown men cry! We ARE human!!! Being open and transparent allows us to get the SHIT out of our heads. It helps immensely
Can’t wait to see you tomorrow and every day after that!!! Yes please on the M.H. Updates because we love you and want to be with you every step to support you through the all the times, not just the good ones but the tough ones too because that’s what friends do. You entertain and educate so enthusiastically, WE NEED YOU, and more good people like you. So take a deep breath and feel the love and hugs and prayers coming from all over the world for you Brian. Keep your head high and proud and happy and we’ll see you tomorrow!!! XOXO
Never bored! I'm glad you updated us and see you fighting your fight. And winning! Love you!
Stay positive.. I deal with it on a daily basis. It is so scary ... i watch your videos each and every day... I'm here if u ever need to talk. Having someone to talk to helps when u cant take meds. And it just takes time. Be safe.
Hang in there Brian, we are all in this together. I have PTSD and General Anxiety Disorder and I get the up and down as I go though it to. It's always good to talk about it and it will help us out here and we can help supporting you. We hold each other up.
PLEASE keep us posted on your anxiety. My whole family suffers from it badly, but we can take meds. I hate so much that you cannot take meds to help you. Be blessed! Love ya Brian!
Thank you for the sweet message. And yes you deserve to get messages saying that we're with you Brian too. We all know that life can be challenging at times especially when you are dealing with mental health issues. I literally started to tear up when you said that you got to read our messages Brian. And I myself really appreciate it. Yes you are right we're going to get through it slowly but surely. Sending you great thoughts and prayers Brian and family members and friends as well. ☺👍👏🤟
Dearest Brian, thank you for your update, thinking of you, and hoping the better days begin to overtake the bad days, never put any pressure on yourself, just take it one day at a time..... Virtual hugs ❤️xx
My 14 year old son suffers from very bad anxiety and struggles feeling safe when he leaves the housed, your messages are such an inspiration to him, as he finally says, someone feels the same way I do, I’m not alone.
Thanks for the update! Remember that we all love you and are pulling for you!
Keep ur head held high Brian we all have our good days n bad days am always here when needed to vent
Please keep us updated!!!! You are an inspiration to me. I have been struggling with my mental health all my life and I recently had an experience that has truly impacted my mental state and it has been very hard for me to talk about it. I just thank you for sharing with us.
I love your vlogs. I have bad anxiety, panic attacks and depression and your videos help me just forget about the world for a little bit. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hey,Thanks Brian for keeping it going through all this. We are strong and get through all of it. Just officially lost my job,but been saving,so have a good cushion. Another small business down. But hopefully will be able to visit soon. Take care.
Brian ive been watching you for abt 4 years and i hope you feel better i deal with socail anxiety and i get thats its hard so i hope you feel amazing when you get better youve helped alot of people with your positivity and passion for what you do you are a great person keep up the good work
Yes Brian, please keep us updated as to how you are doing, it's good to talk. You are doing great and it's going to take time but you will come through this, positivity is the way to go. I find that doing something keeps you occupied and takes your mind off things, hang in there brian xx
Definitely would like to hear how you’re doing! My sister and I text constantly to help each other and one thing she came up with that I like, makes me smile, is we can’t give up and just quit life because what would come after ‘quit’!??? As we get through a tough day no matter how we feel or what we did or did not accomplish we made it through another day! Life is a gift no matter how tough! Living is success, especially with mental illness to deal with!! I’m super happy to see your blog each and every morning. You help me start off each day with a smile!! Thank you!!!
Thank you for the Update on how youre doing. Helps me get thru my days being able to join you every morning with the animals. Absolutely Amazing. Thank you again. And yes PLEASE keep us updated. Many positive vibes Brian. We Love You.
Your updates aren't boring. You are truly inspiring.
I like what you are doing with the animals, just make sure you take of yourself first because without you the animals there won't be happy so I'm sending you my prayers Brian Barczyk
LOVE your optimistic veiw I admire your work both reptiles and mental health. GOD BLESS
I had a bad battle with my own anxiety yesterday and it's still on going but your videos help me and knowing that I'm not alone in my battle and that there are other people going through the same thing and we are all fighting together is just amazing. Thank you so much for making your videos Brian, I love snakes so much and you're just amazing! Keep doing what you are doing and I hope anyone who is going through mental health problems gets through it! You can do it, stay strong and be positive!!
What a great mom that boa is. Beautiful.
Brian you are inspirational! Even having a tough time yourself you are thinking of others. God bless you! And please update us how you're doing. 💓
My name is Cynthia I suffer from anxiety and depression to I take 5 meds a day to stay normal and I have high blood pressure and high heart rate and it makes me feel like I have ran a marathon but I would be sitting still. Love y’all! Thank you for all the amazing videos! 🥰
Love the Lucy one so much! Hope you all have a great day 😊
Everyday is a new chapter in your book. It's a blank space that you can fill in on your own way. And caring first for yourself is absolutely not selfish!
God man. You really help me out every day when I watch your videos and I know you go through a lot lately with your anxiety and it just helps me out so much to be able to see you do what you want to do and push that anxiety off your shoulders like it’s nothing but at the same time I know that it is the worst thing that can get a hold of you love you Brian
Always remember you are very loved! Thank you for continuing to push through and offer us these great videos even on the days it's hard as heck to get out of bed. There are many of us who understand how hard those days can be and we appreciate and recognize the victory when you still post a video no matter what. Hugs to all!
I've been given a emotional support dog from my sister and he has been helping me since he has been given to me almost a month ago, I've been suffering from mental health issues for many years, so I understand what you are going through and we can get through this and keep fighting together!
Keep us updated!! Things will be ok! I feel very similar to you and deal with some addiction issues but watching you talk helps me not feel so alone in life. Thank you for that
Massive love to you Brian, take things one day at a time, one hour at a time, one minute at a time if needs be and it will pass. Try to remember that there doesn't need to be a reason for anxiety and depression, it just happens sometimes and it's classic to feel guilty for being anxious and depressed. I speak from experience.
