I seriously cried when your husband came on and said y'all are still getting you the help you need, that was just so pure & beautiful!! I hope you get to where you need to be
I love how supportive and defensive Jeff is of your mental health it’s very sweet. Not sure if Ottawa has one but smith falls has a mental health clinic where I get amazing free counselling and help so that might be a good channel to look into. If you guys want something different and fun to do while you are off rib fest is in Perth this weekend 😊 hope your feeling better
I’ve worked In Doctors offices and emergency rooms and I’ve never ever heard of a doctor not dealing with stress and anxiety. That blew me away. Maybe she was new and didn’t get it. Some people aren’t aware. Trying to be nice, but Krazy! I’m a massive plant hoarder, I’ve got well over 100. It’s all about the drainage, not overwatering and lighting; your plants are gorgeous and hope you have a great week and enjoy your reading.
I work in the mental health field in the US and that’s bull crap what you had to go through; however, it’s not that much better here either. You have such a supportive husband! ❤️ Side note: why have I NEVER put maple syrup in my coffee/tea! Next grocery shop, I’m buying REAL maple syrup :)
This video brings me so much peace. I’m laying in my bed under a cozy blanket cuddling my dog binge watching your channel atm, ok? So please continue thanks
So I always love your book blogs, but seriously enjoy watching you and your plants too. You can see how much you are loving this new hobby. You've made me want new plants. I need to find a place for them now. LOL
I am so happy you have such a beautiful support system through your husband. It really makes me so happy and thankful for the people who love and support those struggling with mental health issues. It may seem over the top to some for me to say this but its true . People like your husband save lives. Period. You both are truly an inspiration to me. Xoxoxox Also. Travis the haunted troll is everything.
Its so Good that you have the support of Geoff. Half that battle is finding someone that will be there through thick and thin. I hope you feel better!!!! I recently got on medication finally found a great doctor in a strange place but my obgyn prescribed them as I am now having an unexpected pregnancy.
Yes burnout breaks are so important/underrated. I hope you find a GP that actually cares about their patients of all needs! Loved this vlog, you’re such a gem!
You and your husband are goals!! I don’t know a single thing about plants but watching you re-pot them and stuff was super relaxing. Thinking of you and sending positive vibes your way. Fuck them for treating you like that. Take care, love 💗
I’m so happy Jeff is such a great support system for you. I have anxiety too and really don’t have anyone except for my step mom. Also I’m jealous of your pretty plants 😁
OKAY WOW GEOFF what an ANGEL So happy you have such a loving, supportive human in your life and that you'ret aking the steps to do what you need to do for yourself!!!!
Jeff is the most amazingly loving walrus-mustached fellow ever. 11/10 appreciate him forever 💕 Also, glad to hear you are getting the help you need. Mental health and anxiety is the worst to get help for because it usually involves things THAT SET OFF MENTAL HEALTH AND ANCIETY TO GET TO THE HELP. Many well wishes 😘
I’m so sorry about the awful experience you had at the doctor 😭 unfortunately mental health isn’t always taken seriously but I’m so happy you’re still getting the help you need elsewhere! ❤️ Geoff is so supportive of you!
I can't believe that that was the reaction that you got towards wanting to take care of your mental health. You've got an awesome partner supporting you! I love that all of your plants have names.
I'm so sorry you had to go through that with the medical office. I think it's like that all over when it comes to mental health. From my experience, mental health takes the back burner in my state compared to other medical concerns like physical injuries. You basically end up fighting tooth and nail to get results and see the people who can help you. And nine times out of ten, when you find really amazing people in that field who know what they're doing, they end up leaving for better positions or locations. But hearing Geoff get so worked up, absolutely precious and he's is so amazingly supportive of you. ❤️ It warms the heart!
Jeff is so supportive and it makes my heart happy. Really happy you're taking time for yourself and getting help that you need! I'm also SO jealous that your calathea is thriving, mine is so dramatic and keeps dying even with a humidifier directly on it. Oh and your pothos will be super easy to care for...I just water mine once a week and it loves it :)
I'm really glad that you're able to take a mental health break from work and I hope you can get some support, the way that the doctors surgery treated you was shocking! Loved seeing your plant babies, good luck with the reading rush!
Girl if it’s starting to rot just let it dry out and it will regrow don’t throw it away. And I hope u have filtered or distilled water for the calathea but I know your humidity is good because I can see your humidifier. Good luck
I love you guys!!! I understand about the mental health situation > I'm so overmedicated right now. Your husband is so caring! brought tears to my eyes!!!!
Omg thank you for cutting that plastic bit off that sansevieria! I don’t know why the frick nurseries do that! They strangle the roots! Also, a chopstick works GREAT for separating the root ball for repotting. I got a metal one and I use it for aerating the soil and for repotting. 😄
I am such a bad plantmother. I have a few plants I really need to repot, but I'm scared to do it. This video makes it look like it's not such a big deal. Thank you.
You and your husband are so cute and he supports you and loves you so much. I hope you get better and you can go see a doctor or therapist that can give you the help that you need. I love all your plants 🌱❤️
As a person who suffers from mental health issues myself, I am truly sorry you were overlooked at the doctor's office as you were. It's sad that health professionals don't see mental health as a real illness, and dismiss us. No wonder people are so scared to get the help they need! This is truly upsetting and there has to be way to get these doctor's to take mental health problems seriously!
Hope this two weeks will help with your health and stress levels. ❤Do you know of a good website with a detailed list of plants that are venomous for cats? I want to get more plants but I always worry for my babies. That Travis drawing needs to be included in the next book print 🙈
You: This is a baby head candle I think I'm going to burn this week. I did not hear the candle part! Kind of freaked out because I was looking away when you said it.
You deserve a better GP! I know I was scared to even tell my doctor. I called a local outpatient treatment center and got to their intake line. That's how it all started. I hope that helps. We have a Horizon Health Center here. Not sure what would be in your area.
Me: I'm going to catch up on Natasha's Resding Rush Vlogs while I eat dinner. Natasha's poetry book: *sperm* Me: ...lovely. Aaaand I'm done with this white gravy.
I was rejected from getting insurance in the U.S. because of previous treatment for depression, so I feel your frustration with mental health and getting the right care. I'm glad that you are getting what you need though, even if it was a pain in the ass. (p.s. I have insurance now)
I went to the doctor recently to ask for a recommendation on a counselor. My doctor (first time I have ever been to her office by the way) asked me what symptoms I was experiencing. I said “depression and anxiety” and she asked me to elaborate because it was “not possible to be experiencing both at the same time.” The older I get the less faith I have. Very frustrating. And I also had to pay 45 dollars for the visit 🤷♀️
That was really lame of your doctor's office. I am glad you are taking the time you need to get better. So last night I had this dream that you and Kayla from Booksandlala came to my house for a surprise visit and we all filmed collabs together. :p
I'm with Jeff... I'm furious. That is not ok. I'm sorry you had to deal with that. Does your cat never try to eat your plants? I have to shut mine in a room or put them super high otherwise they'd be eaten haha
I echo that what you had to go through to get help for your stress and anxiety was complete bullshit! I’m glad you have a loving partner to help you through it and that you found other resources. Also, watching you repot your plants was so soothing! ❤️ However, how do you keep your kitty from knocking them all down???
I am sorry you had to deal with all of that in regards to healthcare. I know medical professionals aren't always the best when it comes to helping people struggling with mental health. I hope that you were/are still able to get your referrals to try and work on getting through this. I know anxiety can be awful to deal with and I know anxiety can make depression so much worse. Hopefully the break from work will help and maybe doing some fun self care activities will benefit you as well. :)
Ma'am, how dare you show me all of your stunning plants and not list them in the comments! How am I supposed to decipher the spelling of those plants so I can run out and buy all of thems??? Ok, I'm done. Gorgeous plants and great vlog 🤣
Sansevieria! Are most of them. Sansevieria snake plant. Sansevieria tuber something I can’t spell Calathea Ornata is the pinstripe one Marble Queen pothos ZZ plant! That’s most of them I think!
Well I read the Troop and let me tell you...it was a Lot. I yelled at the audiobook so many times and it was pretty Gross. But I loved it so fucking much.
I can't understand our health care system. It's free, but so hard to get help. Especialy mental health. The most important one. I'm thinking of you! Things will get better!
@@myreadingisodd depends. I'm in Quebec.... it can heal on its self before you get someone to fix it. 😂 Crazy. I drive to Ontario when I need to go to the hospital.
Yeah I’ve been trying to get a therapist for months and they’re all like lol sorry try again in November. You can’t help but think like what if I’m not around in November....
I haven’t even finished watching the vlog yet but I just wanted to say I’m sorry your doctor is actual shit and I hope that your mental health improves 💛💛 PS I love you and I love how caring Jeff is
That response to you asking for help is A BS people problem.

I seriously cried when your husband came on and said y'all are still getting you the help you need, that was just so pure & beautiful!!
I hope you get to where you need to be
when Jeff said "we're gonna get you the help you need" and kissed your forehead , i legit started crying , that was SO sweet
He's the best bean.
@@myreadingisodd he truly is , you're so amazing for each other !
I love how supportive and defensive Jeff is of your mental health it’s very sweet.

If you guys want something different and fun to do while you are off rib fest is in Perth this weekend 😊 hope your feeling better
Geoff is everything really. I could handle any and all ribs.
me, an obsessive plant mom, wishing i could just touch your plants and tell them they are doing great
God I really hope they're doing ok LOL
so sorry about the bullshit ur dealing with bb. kinda sweet hearing geoff getting worked up tho, y'all are goals honestly
He was SO MAD.
ugh i love this plant tour. I'm very glad that Geoff has your back always and was there.

I am trying to contain my laughter at seeing your drawing because I'm at work and I just can't lol
It's the funniest thing maybe ever.

"I went to art school for 2 years" I feel ya
I’m so happy Jeff is such a great support system for you. I have anxiety too and really don’t have anyone except for my step mom.

Watching you pot those plants was so relaxing!! I hope you start to feel better soon :)
It's a really fun thing to do.

I loved all the plant footage you included in this vlog. It was interesting and calming to watching 🙃
So much plant footage and it's not gonna stop.
myreadingisodd good! I think you should do more vlogs like this, if you feel like it or have time of course.
Jeff is so supportive and it makes my heart happy. Really happy you're taking time for yourself and getting help that you need!
I'm also SO jealous that your calathea is thriving, mine is so dramatic and keeps dying even with a humidifier directly on it. Oh and your pothos will be super easy to care for...I just water mine once a week and it loves it :)
Geoff is the best truly. I don't think that calathea is thriving. I think it hates me and just hanging on.
I'm really glad that you're able to take a mental health break from work and I hope you can get some support, the way that the doctors surgery treated you was shocking! Loved seeing your plant babies, good luck with the reading rush!
Girl if it’s starting to rot just let it dry out and it will regrow don’t throw it away. And I hope u have filtered or distilled water for the calathea but I know your humidity is good because I can see your humidifier. Good luck
I love you guys!!! I understand about the mental health situation > I'm so overmedicated right now. Your husband is so caring! brought tears to my eyes!!!!
I love your oddities shelf. I’ve been looking for one like that forever
It was a kids shelf and I spray painted it!
Omg thank you for cutting that plastic bit off that sansevieria! I don’t know why the frick nurseries do that! They strangle the roots! Also, a chopstick works GREAT for separating the root ball for repotting. I got a metal one and I use it for aerating the soil and for repotting. 😄
It was so weird to see it in there!
I am such a bad plantmother. I have a few plants I really need to repot, but I'm scared to do it. This video makes it look like it's not such a big deal. Thank you.
OMG the drawing made me laugh so hard. Love it and you of course. Stay strong.
Thank you I will!
Hope that you get the help you need! Seeing you depot your plants is extremely calming. 💓💓
It's extremely calming to do as well.
That drawing had me laughing. I'm sorry you had such a hard time with the doctor but your husband is amazing. Hope your doing better.
You and your husband are so cute and he supports you and loves you so much. I hope you get better and you can go see a doctor or therapist that can give you the help that you need. I love all your plants 🌱❤️

We stan an Earth Goddess!! I hope you start feeling better 💜 Fix Her Up was amazing I just finished it today.
I really liked when you said, while displaying your drawing, "I went to art school for two years." Just a friendly comment. Great video!
Hope this two weeks will help with your health and stress levels. ❤Do you know of a good website with a detailed list of plants that are venomous for cats? I want to get more plants but I always worry for my babies.
That Travis drawing needs to be included in the next book print 🙈
I honestly have no idea. i think the SPCA or whatever that animal site is has an extensive list.
@@myreadingisodd Thanks! One of my cats likes to always chew all plants 💀
Ok Geoff has me crying... i really hope you get to a place you want to be ❤️❤️
You: This is a baby head candle I think I'm going to burn this week.
I did not hear the candle part! Kind of freaked out because I was looking away when you said it.
LOL
That’s it. I’m going plant shopping today. I need some new plant children.
YES get new babies!
I just finished Death of Mrs. westaway and I agree I LOVE HAL! Excited to hear your thoughts when you finish
Hal was great and I want more of her just reading cards.
You deserve a better GP! I know I was scared to even tell my doctor. I called a local outpatient treatment center and got to their intake line. That's how it all started. I hope that helps. We have a Horizon Health Center here. Not sure what would be in your area.
That drawing of Travis belongs in a museum hahaha
The Louvre is hiring I think.
I have anxiety as well..love the plants..I have snake ones too.
Me: I'm going to catch up on Natasha's Resding Rush Vlogs while I eat dinner.
Natasha's poetry book: *sperm*
Me: ...lovely. Aaaand I'm done with this white gravy.
I was rejected from getting insurance in the U.S. because of previous treatment for depression, so I feel your frustration with mental health and getting the right care. I'm glad that you are getting what you need though, even if it was a pain in the ass. (p.s. I have insurance now)
Omg you're husband is so sweet! i❤ you guys !
Glad you're getting help. 💜
Finally right?
Did I watch this vlog instead of checking emails this morning? Yes. Yes I did.
#plAUNT
GOOD. Who needs emails really?
Always love your VLOGS
Thank you!
That's ridiculous. When I first started going through mental health stuff, my GP was the first place I went and he sorted everything out for me.
Yeah well, mine is a turd apparently.
We love a good ZZ Top appreciation!
I went to the doctor recently to ask for a recommendation on a counselor. My doctor (first time I have ever been to her office by the way) asked me what symptoms I was experiencing. I said “depression and anxiety” and she asked me to elaborate because it was “not possible to be experiencing both at the same time.” The older I get the less faith I have. Very frustrating. And I also had to pay 45 dollars for the visit 🤷♀️
That's insane. I feel like that would be one of the most common combinations in my opinion. Sorry you had to experience that.
::HUGE HUGS::
Are you going to res the new Ruth Ware?! I think it will combine the thriller and a bit of horror / eerieness you seek!
Love this reading rush vlog - also your hair is awesome.
Thank you!
Well that is exactly how I pictured Travis.
RIGHT!?
I too went to art school for two years! You need to frame Two Bat Travis, he is a masterpiece
I think so as well.
Sending lots of love from germany ❤❤ hope you enjoy your two weeks off and feel better soon
Sending love back to Germany!
Drs are suppose to refer you to psychologists or other professionals
And now I want 80 plants
*do it*
That was really lame of your doctor's office. I am glad you are taking the time you need to get better. So last night I had this dream that you and Kayla from Booksandlala came to my house for a surprise visit and we all filmed collabs together. :p
I am so bad at self care. when I take time off of work I feel the worst guilt and end up not enjoying my time off
I'm bad for that the first few days and then the fuck-its comes in strong.
I'm with Jeff... I'm furious. That is not ok. I'm sorry you had to deal with that.
Does your cat never try to eat your plants? I have to shut mine in a room or put them super high otherwise they'd be eaten haha
Hope you feel better.
Good job, Jeff.
Geoff is life.
I echo that what you had to go through to get help for your stress and anxiety was complete bullshit! I’m glad you have a loving partner to help you through it and that you found other resources.
Also, watching you repot your plants was so soothing! ❤️ However, how do you keep your kitty from knocking them all down???
She tends to just leave them alone for the most part!
Slip slop baby out peace out ✌🏼
Also: crying over how much I love you and Geoff 💕😭 sending you the best feel good vibes
It's so bad though lol
Why have I never put maple syrup in coffee? Am I even canadian?
no.
Two bat Travis!
Terrified but so intrigued 💙💚💙💚
As you should.
I am also reading a book over a 1000 pages for the reading rush lol
Well that didn't work out for me did it.
myreadingisodd it didn’t for me either lol
OMG Two Bat Travis is a work ort. I LMBO. 👏👏👏👏👏
A masterpiece.
I am sorry you had to deal with all of that in regards to healthcare. I know medical professionals aren't always the best when it comes to helping people struggling with mental health. I hope that you were/are still able to get your referrals to try and work on getting through this. I know anxiety can be awful to deal with and I know anxiety can make depression so much worse. Hopefully the break from work will help and maybe doing some fun self care activities will benefit you as well. :)
Oh the break from worm has been great so far.
Ma'am, how dare you show me all of your stunning plants and not list them in the comments! How am I supposed to decipher the spelling of those plants so I can run out and buy all of thems??? Ok, I'm done. Gorgeous plants and great vlog 🤣

May you feel as good as your sense of humour 👌💛
Awww I can try!
I hope your time off work is all you need and more. 🖤
LMAO THE SPERM PART. ILY.
“You haven’t seen me that angry before.” OOP!!!! Dad is mad dad is mad omg.
Yeah I’ve been trying to get a therapist for months and they’re all like lol sorry try again in November. You can’t help but think like what if I’m not around in November....
Hahahahaha the drawing Travis omg. Dhdkdndjdjdjdj
No seriously he was PISSED.
My doctor sees me for anxiety that's a load of bullshit.
I haven’t even finished watching the vlog yet but I just wanted to say I’m sorry your doctor is actual shit and I hope that your mental health improves 💛💛
PS I love you and I love how caring Jeff is
Anxiety and Stress leave from work?! Canada is heaven?!?
I have anxiety...panic attacks...Ive been dismissed before. Its complete bullshit.
i wish i could grow plants oof
Hang in there, sometimes life gets difficult
It sure does. Hang in there too!
I respect your plant love. I am awful with plants 😭 I take care of cats instead
I am trying my best that's for sure!
Awww Jefffffff😭😭😭😭😭
Geoff is the best!
That response to you asking for help is A BS people problem. They should have responded with concern and even if they aren't the ones to provide what you need their humanness should have kicked in and figured it out together. That's a facility that provides care and to tell you they can't help in anyway is a disconnect response. Care requires feelings. Chin up, get what you need. You have our support!!!✌☀
Thank you!
Does Steve the plant know that i would die for him? please let him know
Oh he knows.
P.S. report that doctor
Oh we did.
How tf are you able to read laying down. I always have to sit up
if someone ever gets a tattoo of two bat travis.. anywhere on their body... you have made it in life... #justsaying
This is true. He's an icon.
Ok gross maple syrup in coffee
*ok but it's so good though*
I bet it just sounds gross
