Big of you both to be kind to eachother. Bryson really seems to enjoy working for Crazy Pieces and that's great you can still talk to his mom. Some things just dont work out. Focus on your mental health and do what feels right. ♥️
As a Mom I am very proud of you speaking about your mental health, my 25 yr old has struggled for years and refused to get help FINALLY agreed 6 months ago and I have her back she laughs she has conversations and is happy. I encourage anyone who is struggling to seek help. Keep up the good work!!
girl don't ever give up. I remember when you went to therapy last time with those horses. your story impacted hundreds. You got a whole family over here.
I recently got on medication for depression and anxiety. Nothing to be embarrassed of or to think it’s a failure. Took me YEARS to figure that out. Doing so much better since I started the medication!! I pray everyone doesn’t wait as long as I did to get help!
I love how you talk openly about your struggles with mental health. I hope you continue to use your platform to advocate for those who struggle and to reach out for help! I have watched your family’s channel and to see the difference from when you were in high school to now is amazing!! Keep doing what your doing girl!!
Halie ! I wish I could hug you ! I think we can all agree that we all are going through a lot of things . My brother passed away unexpectedly and a year later my father was diagnosed with terminal cancer and has since passed . When I tell you that therapy was a must ! And shout out to my lexapro 😂 But I just want to say that , silencing your mental health is like self abandonment, to really know us is to know those parts of us . Those who support you , will be willing to love those pieces of you. So keep sharing your battles with mental health. You never know who you are inspiring We love you ! 💕🌹 xoxo
There should be no more stigma attached to taking psychiatric meds than there is with wearing corrective eyeglasses/contacts (ie: there should not be ANY stigma at all!) I'm glad you've found something that seems to be working for you....keep focusing on what is best for YOUR health.
@@txtort1Amen! I had my former psychiatrist tell me that exact thing! If you take medication for diabetes. Why shouldn’t you take it for mental health?!
there definitely should be cause they are not the same at all. if i forget to take my meds, im not a different person like i am when i forget my contacts. mental and physical impairments are NOT the same. this is a DAMAGING mindset.
I suffer from mental health health issues also my biggest struggle is a agoraphobia fear of going places. I overcoming it , then it seems to come back. yes more painting videos
Always put yourself first! No matter what the looks like, medication, therapy, breaking stuff, and everything in-between! Have you thought about mentoring preteen-young adults that struggle with their mental health? Or foster kids maybe??
I have taken depression medication all my life and recently had to go on anti anxiety meds to cope. Never be embarrassed do what you have to do so that you dont fall down that rabbit hole. ❤
I really appreciate you sharing to your viewers about mental health. I’ve always struggled my whole life since I was 13 to now I’m 28. I’m finally taking care of myself and listening to what I actually need. You’re brave and mature for your age. You should be proud of yourself.
I agree 💯👍🏻 a true princess at heart ❤️ smart, beautiful in and out, kind, open and honest and more. Proud of you for being brave enough to share your struggles 🙏🏻
Halie, you are so strong! I’ve been nannying since Feb. 2022 and let me tell you, the first year kind of sucked. It had me second guessing what I wanted to do in life. However, I started working with an amazing family at the end of March this year and I hope to be with them for a very long time. I’m paid generously, get benefits, guaranteed hours, payroll/w2, etc. Don’t settle!
Do not let anyone make you feel bad about taking meds for your mental health. I have been on them for many ears and have lived a very productive life and have been a better person for it.
That's the good thing about maturity, people start to date/engage and break up everyday, that's a normal thing, that's the way life is. And when a friendship starts in this senarios, even better. Anyway, we love you halie, we love bryson, let's move foward, happy and strong!
Girl I been on depression pills since I was 14 it makes you feel good and happy a lot of the population is on a mental health medication your still strong so don’t ever be scared or ashamed we both got this ❤ and girl I also want a semicolon tattoo because I have had a lot of attempts
The best medicine for me when I'm feeling down is helping somebody else feel good. Love you Halie! You're young you're strong and you will rise above it. Just take it one day at a time and NEVER give up.
Thanks you for being so honest. I have family that struggle with mental health and to know how you feel with taking medication for it is how they feel….. clearer and focused etc. You are amazing keep doing you and looking after yourself first and foremost.
Life is complicated we grow and change daily. Just because we grow apart doesnt mean we dont want good things for the other. thats the thing is each relationship no matter what it is teaches us something about ourselves.
You encourage me to pay better attention to my mental health. Even though I'm 61 yrs old, when I see you dealing with it straight forward it resonates with me. Thank you
Mental health is so important. I have a semi colon tattoo for that reason. After my last hospital stay I went and got that. Having to take meds is perfectly fine! Use whatever healthy coping tools and strategies needed to feel okay. ❤
Love your video, Halie! Thank you for updating us on what's has been happening in your life lately! I'm sorry that you lost your job! I hope you find a new one soon! Sorry to hear that you & Bryson broke up! I know a lot of people have been asking about it in your recent videos & we, myself included, wanted to respect your privacy despite all that but I'm glad you got it all out & that people can finally take the hint & stop asking! Love your painted pumpkin & then taking it & smashing it to pieces! Now that's how you get rid of all the anger, stress & negative energy inside of you & focus on the positive! I'm glad you are focusing on your mental health & whatnot! It is very important to keep our mental health in check & writing down how you feeling does help! If you need anything, I'm always here to talk if you need somebody to talk to! I'll continue to support you as best as I can & be with you every step of the way! You are truly an amazing & awesome person! Looking forward to your next video! Take care! XOXO 😊❤
Congratulations for taking some pretty big steps to help your mental health. The first steps are the hardest...and you've done that!! You're worth every effort that you're taking. Our grandson took his own life in May, partly because he couldn't/wouldn't take those first steps. The darkness was just too much for him. Please please continue to take good care of yourself, Haley. You are so loved. Thank you for sharing your beautiful self with us. ❤❤
Thank you for talking about and trying to reduce the stigma of taking medication to help with mental health. It took me years to finally “admit defeat” and take the medication, but years later my quality of life has improved by taking medication as a tool in my tool box.
I had to get back on my medicine recently and feel much better too. I was told that like any other illness, mental illness can require medication to function normally. Just like someone with diabetes would take insulin.
Halie, there is definitely a stigma around medication for mental health. I went a long time without it, and it just got to the point where my quality of life was just no longer there. My doctor could see it, and it was SO so scary. Medication has helped me feel like a normal person. It’s not like “happy pills”. When you find the right kind, dosage, and sometimes combination, it can really balance out the chemistry in your brain. Don’t let the perception of others determine how you care for yourself. Do what is best for YOU! It’s also ok to take down time. You are not alone and I am so proud of you for getting the help you need to get you through. You are NOT weak! You are actually so brave for realizing you’re not ok and making a change and getting help for the better. You got this girl. 🩵
Halide there is nothing wrong with taking something for your health when it is needed. It doesn't mean you are weak . You are a strong lovely young lady that just needs a little help. Keep being you
I feel like you always motivate me with these kind of topics 😭. Thank you very much for being brave enough to do this and for always being yourself. That's what I love about you ❤.
Perhaps the puppy is part of the new project...? You said it could help a lot of people- maybe a therapy dog?! Oh I hope I'm right! Regardless, so proud of your progress. I know personally the weight mental health can have on people, not to mention the stigma. I know that "extremely difficult" doesn't even begin to cover it sometimes. I've been doing better the last few months and it feels so good. I did lose my sweet little dog on Thanksgiving and it's been hard. I miss him more than words could describe, but I'm so grateful I got 15 years with him and that he's not in pain anymore ❤ I'm so glad that you gave medication a try and that it has helped you! I love the pumpkin and the meaning of it 😊
You've got this Halie....always remember you need to love yourself before you can share you with a significant other. You are young and have your whole life ahead of you. Take the time to figure out what makes you happy. Each day is a new beginning.....you are brave, you are strong!❤
As soon as you showed the pumpkin I knew that was a koi fish 🥰 You shouldn't have felt any stigma about taking meds. The fact you wanted to try meds to see if they helped is a super strong thing to do, and so is you talking on here so openly about everything. You'll help so many people x
Halie, you leaned so much about mental health and what you need for your self. I am glad to see that you do what ever makes you feel better. If it makes you feel better, it is right path for you at this moment. It it is very important to know when you need help and who is abel to help you. Be very proud of yourself and how much you have learned! I liked your pumpkin 🎃 idea!
I love how you talk about mental health. So many people go through it I struggle and I have no one to really go to my friends don’t understand. I love watching your videos.
My sister retained a friendship with her ex even though they aren't together anymore so as a kind gesture of thought while Bryson works for your parents you both could retain friendship but it is good that you two have a lot of respect towards each other 🙂
Halie I am so proud of you for getting help. As someone older than you, that is also struggling and finally starting therapy and getting on the right medications, I know it can be hard and scary, but you are not alone. You’re never alone. And you are so strong for taking these steps! I love you!!!
I’ve struggled with my mental health for 40 years now and I will say I am so proud of you!!! You take care of your mental health when you’re struggling and it’s so important!!! You’ve come so far and it’s been nice seeing the amazing changes in you!! You’re a mature young lady and please if you could do some videos painting I think it would be nice!!! 😊 Keep doing what you’re doing Halie!!! ❤
Thank you for sharing 🫶 you are a very strong young lady. Proud of you🫶 LoVe 😍 the shoes! Praying for you and that you find a job very soon🙏🏼 Blessings 💜💜💜
I love that you're so transparent when it comes to your mental health. I've been on meds for depression and anxiety my entire adult life. It helps so much. However, I hate the weight gain and sexual side effects. Otherwise, I couldn't function without it.
im proud of you for doing this vid. Love when you can share. I too struggle with depression and anxiety. Used to have panic attacks multipule times a day. You always have someone to talk to. You are NOT alone that struggle with this. I wish you the best and im here if you need to vent. hugs
We all have struggles with mental health from time to time. We don't always talk about it. We tend to keep it to ourself. Thank you for shining a light on this topic.😊
Hi my name is Ellen, I'm so glad you made the decision to get medicine to help you. I have taken medicine for many years for my depression and anxiety. As far as medicine, you wouldn't judge someone for taking medicine for a heart condition or diabetes, yet taking mental health meds is somehow a taboo. People take diabetes or heart medicine to be able to maintain a normal life, without the meds they would take the risk of dying. Mental health meds are exactly the same, they are used to maintain a healthier life. Just food for thought!! Keep taking care of yourself!
You have been the one that set the example for me to get help. We finally found the right anti depressant about a month ago after a traumatic experience with birth control and your right once you have a chemical balance you feel amazing.
Great video! Great idea! I knew you would speak about your break up when you were ready I am being treated for anxiety. I'm glad you know yourself enough to go for help. Love you and your family.
I have been on an as needed med for 4 years and just last month I got on a daily med!! Definitely hard to come to terms with needing meds, but trust me it’s worth figuring out what works/helps you!! Love you sweet girl you got this!! ❤
Hi Halie. Art therapy is great. Yes, do more videos on your art. So sorry you lost your job. As one door closes another opens. Plus life is a journey of growing. I think most of us have some sort of mental illness. I've been on meds for many years now and had hospital stays. The positive is In able to help more people who are just starting this journey...like my kids. Can't wait to meet your new furbaby! 🐾 😍
Your amazing for admitting you need help and there's nothing wrong with taking medication. Also therapy helps a lot. It just matters whether it's the right one that helps if that makes sense. I've also been struggling. But I am also in therapy and taking medication. Hang in there! You got this Halle
Hair is cute. Sad to hear about you and bryson,you seemed so happy. Mental health is no joke. I take 2 meds for that. I have numerous health issues and its really messed with my mental. ❤❤
I am very proud of you for speaking out about mental health my brother never would speak to anyone and ended up taking his own life you are really truly a strong and beautiful women please keep up the good work not only does it help you but may also save someone else's life
You certainly are not the only one suffering with mental health. I understand 1 in 5 people do in one form or another, including myself. When my mum passed away in 2021, my mh was really bad and on top of being housebound with my disabilities, covid restrictions, and losing my job. But it's about building your resilience to life events, uncontrollable events, death, etc. I seem to be coming out the other side but still suffer from depression controlled with medication. However, last week I took a 2 day online course and am now qualified as a Mental Health First Aider so I hopefully help others.😊
Hallie, since you love koi fish....I highly recommend you to build a mini pond for a koi fish and put some aquatic plants and lotus flowers....you can watch them grow from small to big and feed them. I find that very relaxing in my yard with a mini barrel pond. But if you have a bigger property, a bigger pond is even better.❤
I am with you! I struggle to have to take depression meds to be my normal self. It’s a love/hate relationship. I feel good when I take them but hate that I have to take them. Stay strong and know that you are very loved!
We are sorry to hear that you and your boyfriend as broke up.pain will come with time, but time will heal the Paine you have a wonderful family that loves you so much.❤
Halie I think that you are a very brave and strong person to be able to open up and discuss your issues with mental health and depression ❤ I am happy that you are working to get yourself healthy. I am so sorry that are also dealing with a breakup with Bryson as well as a loss of your job. Stay true to yourself and I am praying and thinking of you that things will soon get better for you 🙏❤️🤩🤞🎶
I take medication for anxiety. It’s a game changer for me. If I forget for a couple days I feel like I used to and I hate it. The medication has made basic, everyday everything just possible and not impossible.
You are doing great you have come a long way be proud of yourself life is a bumpy road you just have to hang on it will get smoother but you will find another job wishing you all the best sweet heart xxx
Clever to use saran wrap on your plate to use as a palette for your paint. 😊 Thanks for explaining the semi colon. Pretty cool symbolism. Also, nice way to get the feelings out!
I’ve been on Mental Health meds since my twenties. I’m in my sixties. I love that you feel comfortable talking about it! Medication gave me my life back, and there is no shame and shouldn’t be any stigma. Our brains are just another organ, that if it needs a Dr., or medication, We owe it to ourselves to get the help we need, so proud of you! Love you! 😘❤️
Halie I watched you grow over the years on your family's channel and seeing you take on your struggles in life reminded myself when I was that age going through similar struggles and you have grown into such an amazing woman. I will be turning 37 this year and I wish I had your amazing strength you show. I know you don't know me from Adam but I see you. And I hope you don't see what I ment as creepy I mean it as in even if you may not see the strength in yourself at the moment I see it in you.
Halie , u should nothing but proud of yourself,,, mental health is serious and there are probably alot viewers that you are helping just by speaking uo about it ... u go girl
Halie - you could be a doppelganger for Emma Stone ( You look just like her with your hair dark ) Very pretty *Advice from someone who married young - enjoy being young. Find your happiness - Travel, do hobbies, go to concerts, Netflix, and chill. Then you will meet someone to share life with. You are absolutely beautiful and have a wonderful loving BIG family & extended family - What a blessing!
I have crippling anxiety- iykyk- and I am super scared of taking a medication every day. What happens then? Do you have to take them forever? Were you worried about that? I'm glad you are feeling better. I'm sorry about the break-up, it always sucks. Especially if you have to keep seeing them, no hate to Brycen but that can be rough. Much love from Wilsonville Oregon ❤
I deal with depression and anxiety PTSD and social anxiety. I got on medication 22 years ago for it. I have lost my mom and dad and four siblings. The the day I lost my 25 year old daughter and grandson not yet born . My daughter passed away of Cardiomyopathy. She passed away in My home. God has carried me through this. I am still on my medication and feel a lot better now after 10 years of her being gone. Life is so important so we can’t just throw it away. You will do great❤️🙏
Halie, I just want to say that nothing is wrong with seeking help for mental health. I, myself, have had a hard time dealing with depression n anxiety. One day, I spoke with my doctor n told her that I need to see a psychiatrist. Now, there were some people talking their smacks about me seeing a psychiatrist. However, other people’s opinions about me going to see a psychiatrist meant nothing to me ( especially if they were being negative about it ). I have gotten help to better myself in coping with mental health. Another thing, people can talk their crap…but as for me, I did it to better myself. No one knows how it feels to have depression, anxiety or any other mental health issues unless they have been through it themselves. I admire u for the help that u are seeking n don’t u let people who may be negative towards u get the best of u. Instead, if they’re friends, let go of them. If they are family members, explain to them that they aren’t the ones that has to deal with the situation n for them to either support u or excuse themselves out of ur life until they can accept ur choice of seeking help. Stay strong n positive n do for u because no one lives ur life except for u! Blessings to all… Aloha from Hawaii 💜🌈💙
I feel blessed and honored to be one of your viewers. I truly believe that one can learn from everyone no matter what their age is. I am 60 years old, and I still have difficulty opening up when I was in therapy and I know I should return to therapy and I even went in for an intake, and as the intake was ending, the psychologist told me that he did not think that I really needed therapy. So I gave up... Your candor and honesty in how u express your feelings on difficult experiences in your Life updates are an encouragement for others to be able to hopefully go forward if we/they/us/me conside a therapy situation. I have no issues if I am advised and prescribed meds for anxiety or depression know that many people feel a stigma for any aspect of mental health. Your openness has the possibility to help so many of the viewers of whom might be closer to your age. Thank u for bravery and courage! In any relationship, there can be a breakdown, yet u seem to be finding a way to move on and deal w your situation. Using your creative talents as an outlet in a cathartic project to deal w your strong emotions is truly so awesome! [Back when I was young, I was taught to write my feelings down on paper and then wait a day or a week, read what I wrote and then as a way to release the anger, to rip up the paper or burn it as a symbol of sarong goodbye to those negative thoughts. U gve us a lot to think about and learn from u. Mental health is a topic in the news lately, and it should have been in the news eons ago so that there would never have been any type of a stigma attached to any person,no matter their age. Blessings, love and prayers for all, from Israel 🇮🇱. Peace for all on this Earth and in this World.
Halie the strength is knowing when you need the help and getting it. I am very happy you have that strength. Can you do more gluten free reciepes as someone with pcos and celiac would be nice to see what you do.
It takes alot to realise that something is wrong and you need to get help. My realization came in January 2023. Driving home I wanted to drive my car down a bridge... Atleast I know my family loves me and will miss me, so I went to a doctor and psychiatrist. Went on antidepressants. And I feel much better. I feel more myself.
You are so brave to get the help you need. I struggled for years and would go on & off meds for depression & anxiety. I was shamed & intimidated by others to go off meds. Finally, a good friend talked me into going to my Doc & talking to her about it. She prescribed something for anxiety & depression & I haven’t looked back. Everything changed for me & I’ve been able to reach goals, set new goals and enjoy living. God has played a major part of my mindset & I’ve continued to trust Him more, plus have a more meaningful spiritual life. I love my family more & friends more. So, keep it up. Take care of yourself & be happy! Enjoyed this video!
Halie, I think this video was the best video I watched of yours! Mental Health is important & recognising when you need help. You are a wonderful young woman. You have come a long ways! It was cool that you painted the semi colon on the pumkin. Such a powerful symbol of mental health. For work though, have you thought of training for a career in something that you like? Something to think about. Love you❤
Big of you both to be kind to eachother. Bryson really seems to enjoy working for Crazy Pieces and that's great you can still talk to his mom. Some things just dont work out. Focus on your mental health and do what feels right. ♥️
You are so brave telling everyone what’s going on in your life. What a strong and amazing soul you are. ❤
As a Mom I am very proud of you speaking about your mental health, my 25 yr old has struggled for years and refused to get help FINALLY agreed 6 months ago and I have her back she laughs she has conversations and is happy. I encourage anyone who is struggling to seek help. Keep up the good work!!

Good for you Halie for keeping it real/not wanting fans to blame game Bryson. ***Your strong/your beautiful/your a good person!! ***
I agree.
I really appreciate you talking about metal health. I have struggle with anxiety and depression my whole life. I am grateful for you and your family.
I also have struggled my entire life. Sending prayers your way❤❤
I love how you talk openly about your struggles with mental health. I hope you continue to use your platform to advocate for those who struggle and to reach out for help! I have watched your family’s channel and to see the difference from when you were in high school to now is amazing!! Keep doing what your doing girl!!
We love you, Hallie. You will make it. We are praying for you. You are on the right tract

Wow. Saran Wrap on a plate for the paint. Absolutely GENIUS!!! I would’ve never thought of that!
You should get a job at the tea party place where Aurora had a birthday party. You'd be fantastic!
Yes!!
Omg yes she would be amazing at that job
I agree 💯👍🏻 a true princess at heart ❤️ smart, beautiful in and out, kind, open and honest and more. Proud of you for being brave enough to share your struggles 🙏🏻
Bryson seems like a great guy and things just don't work out between two people so I'm happy that you still share love for him and his family
Halie, you are so strong!

I struggle with mental health too. It is okay to be on medication and get help. You are doing great. “ Be your best self”.
Proud of you for working on yourself.
I’ll be praying for you as you work through things.

Halide there is nothing wrong with taking something for your health when it is needed. It doesn't mean you are weak . You are a strong lovely young lady that just needs a little help. Keep being you
I feel like you always motivate me with these kind of topics 😭. Thank you very much for being brave enough to do this and for always being yourself. That's what I love about you ❤.
Perhaps the puppy is part of the new project...? You said it could help a lot of people- maybe a therapy dog?! Oh I hope I'm right! Regardless, so proud of your progress. I know personally the weight mental health can have on people, not to mention the stigma. I know that "extremely difficult" doesn't even begin to cover it sometimes. I've been doing better the last few months and it feels so good. I did lose my sweet little dog on Thanksgiving and it's been hard. I miss him more than words could describe, but I'm so grateful I got 15 years with him and that he's not in pain anymore ❤ I'm so glad that you gave medication a try and that it has helped you! I love the pumpkin and the meaning of it 😊
You’ve got this little lady! Keep on keeping on. Keep advocating for mental health. My son struggles as well. Talk to someone, always. ❤✌🏽
You've got this Halie....always remember you need to love yourself before you can share you with a significant other. You are young and have your whole life ahead of you. Take the time to figure out what makes you happy. Each day is a new beginning.....you are brave, you are strong!❤
As soon as you showed the pumpkin I knew that was a koi fish 🥰 You shouldn't have felt any stigma about taking meds. The fact you wanted to try meds to see if they helped is a super strong thing to do, and so is you talking on here so openly about everything. You'll help so many people x
Halie, you leaned so much about mental health and what you need for your self. I am glad to see that you do what ever makes you feel better. If it makes you feel better, it is right path for you at this moment. It it is very important to know when you need help and who is abel to help you. Be very proud of yourself and how much you have learned! I liked your pumpkin 🎃 idea!
I love how you talk about mental health. So many people go through it I struggle and I have no one to really go to my friends don’t understand. I love watching your videos.
My sister retained a friendship with her ex even though they aren't together anymore so as a kind gesture of thought while Bryson works for your parents you both could retain friendship but it is good that you two have a lot of respect towards each other 🙂
Taking medication is not being weak!! So happy you’re giving it a try and it’s helping!! You are so loved 🤗😘
Halie I am so proud of you for getting help. As someone older than you, that is also struggling and finally starting therapy and getting on the right medications, I know it can be hard and scary, but you are not alone. You’re never alone. And you are so strong for taking these steps! I love you!!!
As I watch you I get nothing but happy for you! Yes Girl stomp that crap away! Your stronger each and every day!💖
I’ve struggled with my mental health for 40 years now and I will say I am so proud of you!!! You take care of your mental health when you’re struggling and it’s so important!!! You’ve come so far and it’s been nice seeing the amazing changes in you!! You’re a mature young lady and please if you could do some videos painting I think it would be nice!!! 😊 Keep doing what you’re doing Halie!!! ❤
Thank you for sharing 🫶 you are a very strong young lady. Proud of you🫶
LoVe 😍 the shoes!
Praying for you and that you find a job very soon🙏🏼
Blessings 💜💜💜
You are a resilient beautiful young lady and as you continue to grow I'm sure you will continue to shine brighter and brighter Howie! ❤
I love that you're so transparent when it comes to your mental health. I've been on meds for depression and anxiety my entire adult life. It helps so much. However, I hate the weight gain and sexual side effects. Otherwise, I couldn't function without it.
im proud of you for doing this vid. Love when you can share. I too struggle with depression and anxiety. Used to have panic attacks multipule times a day. You always have someone to talk to. You are NOT alone that struggle with this. I wish you the best and im here if you need to vent. hugs
Journaling is a great release your such a smart and creative person and so beautiful have faith in yourself
We all have struggles with mental health from time to time. We don't always talk about it. We tend to keep it to ourself. Thank you for shining a light on this topic.😊
hallie you have such a beautiful soul. i can feel it through the screen, thankyou for being real and positive, and here !!!
Sorry to hear you broke up. Things will get better. My son has mental health and takes meds. Take care of yourself 💘
You go girl!! A job will fall into your lap before you know it!! Great idea with the pumpkin smashing to relieve stress...
Hi my name is Ellen, I'm so glad you made the decision to get medicine to help you. I have taken medicine for many years for my depression and anxiety. As far as medicine, you wouldn't judge someone for taking medicine for a heart condition or diabetes, yet taking mental health meds is somehow a taboo. People take diabetes or heart medicine to be able to maintain a normal life, without the meds they would take the risk of dying. Mental health meds are exactly the same, they are used to maintain a healthier life. Just food for thought!! Keep taking care of yourself!
You have been the one that set the example for me to get help. We finally found the right anti depressant about a month ago after a traumatic experience with birth control and your right once you have a chemical balance you feel amazing.
Great video! Great idea! I knew you would speak about your break up when you were ready I am being treated for anxiety. I'm glad you know yourself enough to go for help. Love you and your family.
I have been on an as needed med for 4 years and just last month I got on a daily med!! Definitely hard to come to terms with needing meds, but trust me it’s worth figuring out what works/helps you!! Love you sweet girl you got this!! ❤
Hi Halie. Art therapy is great. Yes, do more videos on your art. So sorry you lost your job. As one door closes another opens. Plus life is a journey of growing. I think most of us have some sort of mental illness. I've been on meds for many years now and had hospital stays. The positive is In able to help more people who are just starting this journey...like my kids. Can't wait to meet your new furbaby! 🐾 😍
Your bravery is very admirable and inspiring! Continue being a light on this dark world
I'm so proud of the things your doing in your life ,your a wonderful young lady ♥️
Prayers for you and Bryson. Sometimes I write my feelings down then I burn it ( safely) . It helps me deal with stuff and let it go
Your amazing for admitting you need help and there's nothing wrong with taking medication. Also therapy helps a lot. It just matters whether it's the right one that helps if that makes sense. I've also been struggling. But I am also in therapy and taking medication. Hang in there! You got this Halle
Hair is cute.
Sad to hear about you and bryson,you seemed so happy.
Mental health is no joke. I take 2 meds for that. I have numerous health issues and its really messed with my mental. ❤❤
I am very proud of you for speaking out about mental health my brother never would speak to anyone and ended up taking his own life you are really truly a strong and beautiful women please keep up the good work not only does it help you but may also save someone else's life
You certainly are not the only one suffering with mental health. I understand 1 in 5 people do in one form or another, including myself. When my mum passed away in 2021, my mh was really bad and on top of being housebound with my disabilities, covid restrictions, and losing my job. But it's about building your resilience to life events, uncontrollable events, death, etc. I seem to be coming out the other side but still suffer from depression controlled with medication. However, last week I took a 2 day online course and am now qualified as a Mental Health First Aider so I hopefully help others.😊
I hope you're okay girl. In worried for you, I feel for you deeply. Mental health is no joke! We're all here for you girl. We love you sis! 😘
Hallie, since you love koi fish....I highly recommend you to build a mini pond for a koi fish and put some aquatic plants and lotus flowers....you can watch them grow from small to big and feed them. I find that very relaxing in my yard with a mini barrel pond. But if you have a bigger property, a bigger pond is even better.❤
Halie, this was a great video! Thx for sharing with us the things you did share. And I would LOVe to see more painting videos from you!
I am with you! I struggle to have to take depression meds to be my normal self. It’s a love/hate relationship. I feel good when I take them but hate that I have to take them. Stay strong and know that you are very loved!
You go girl…! One of your most real and relatable videos yet. Good luck with your secret project, I can’t wait to hear about it.
You'll be okay Halie we are here for you
so sorry about your Relationship and,,your hair looks great ,,.love your new glasses ..love your videos ..love you.
We are sorry to hear that you and your boyfriend as broke up.pain will come with time, but time will heal the Paine you have a wonderful family that loves you so much.❤
Halie I think that you are a very brave and strong person to be able to open up and discuss your issues with mental health and depression ❤ I am happy that you are working to get yourself healthy. I am so sorry that are also dealing with a breakup with Bryson as well as a loss of your job. Stay true to yourself and I am praying and thinking of you that things will soon get better for you 🙏❤️🤩🤞🎶
I take medication for anxiety. It’s a game changer for me. If I forget for a couple days I feel like I used to and I hate it. The medication has made basic, everyday everything just possible and not impossible.
You are doing great you have come a long way be proud of yourself life is a bumpy road you just have to hang on it will get smoother but you will find another job wishing you all the best sweet heart xxx
Good job kiddo . I love the self awareness you have .❤
Clever to use saran wrap on your plate to use as a palette for your paint. 😊 Thanks for explaining the semi colon. Pretty cool symbolism.
Also, nice way to get the feelings out!
I’ve been on Mental Health meds since my twenties. I’m in my sixties. I love that you feel comfortable talking about it! Medication gave me my life back, and there is no shame and shouldn’t be any stigma. Our brains are just another organ, that if it needs a Dr., or medication,
We owe it to ourselves to get the help we need, so proud of you! Love you! 😘❤️
Absolutely been on meds since 30 I'm now 54. Really helped me.❤❤
Halie I watched you grow over the years on your family's channel and seeing you take on your struggles in life reminded myself when I was that age going through similar struggles and you have grown into such an amazing woman. I will be turning 37 this year and I wish I had your amazing strength you show. I know you don't know me from Adam but I see you. And I hope you don't see what I ment as creepy I mean it as in even if you may not see the strength in yourself at the moment I see it in you.
Halie , u should nothing but proud of yourself,,, mental health is serious and there are probably alot viewers that you are helping just by speaking uo about it ... u go girl
Halie - you could be a doppelganger for Emma Stone ( You look just like her with your hair dark ) Very pretty *Advice from someone who married young - enjoy being young. Find your happiness - Travel, do hobbies, go to concerts, Netflix, and chill. Then you will meet someone to share life with. You are absolutely beautiful and have a wonderful loving BIG family & extended family - What a blessing!
I have crippling anxiety- iykyk- and I am super scared of taking a medication every day. What happens then? Do you have to take them forever? Were you worried about that? I'm glad you are feeling better. I'm sorry about the break-up, it always sucks. Especially if you have to keep seeing them, no hate to Brycen but that can be rough. Much love from Wilsonville Oregon ❤
I deal with depression and anxiety PTSD and social anxiety. I got on medication 22 years ago for it. I have lost my mom and dad and four siblings. The the day I lost my 25 year old daughter and grandson not yet born . My daughter passed away of Cardiomyopathy. She passed away in My home. God has carried me through this. I am still on my medication and feel a lot better now after 10 years of her being gone. Life is so important so we can’t just throw it away. You will do great❤️🙏
Thank you so much Halie for talking to us about life like you did and I didnt knew about the semicolon! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼We cant wait to see the puppy! 🎉💪🏼✨
Halie, I just want to say that nothing is wrong with seeking help for mental health. I, myself, have had a hard time dealing with depression n anxiety. One day, I spoke with my doctor n told her that I need to see a psychiatrist. Now, there were some people talking their smacks about me seeing a psychiatrist. However, other people’s opinions about me going to see a psychiatrist meant nothing to me ( especially if they were being negative about it ). I have gotten help to better myself in coping with mental health. Another thing, people can talk their crap…but as for me, I did it to better myself. No one knows how it feels to have depression, anxiety or any other mental health issues unless they have been through it themselves.
I admire u for the help that u are seeking n don’t u let people who may be negative towards u get the best of u. Instead, if they’re friends, let go of them.
If they are family members, explain to them that they aren’t the ones that has to deal with the situation n for them to either support u or excuse themselves out of ur life until they can accept ur choice of seeking help. Stay strong n positive n do for u because no one lives ur life except for u!
Blessings to all…
Aloha from Hawaii 💜🌈💙
Lots of love for you Hals ❤ I’ll always be here for you.
I feel blessed and honored to be one of your viewers. I truly believe that one can learn from everyone no matter what their age is.
I am 60 years old, and I still have difficulty opening up when I was in therapy and I know I should return to therapy and I even went in for an intake, and as the intake was ending, the psychologist told me that he did not think that I really needed therapy. So I gave up...
Your candor and honesty in how u express your feelings on difficult experiences in your Life updates are an encouragement for others to be able to hopefully go forward if we/they/us/me conside a therapy situation.
I have no issues if I am advised and prescribed meds for anxiety or depression know that many people feel a stigma for any aspect of mental health. Your openness has the possibility to help so many of the viewers of whom might be closer to your age.
Thank u for bravery and courage!
In any relationship, there can be a breakdown, yet u seem to be finding a way to move on and deal w your situation.
Using your creative talents as an outlet in a cathartic project to deal w your strong emotions is truly so awesome! [Back when I was young, I was taught to write my feelings down on paper and then wait a day or a week, read what I wrote and then as a way to release the anger, to rip up the paper or burn it as a symbol of sarong goodbye to those negative thoughts.
U gve us a lot to think about and learn from u.
Mental health is a topic in the news lately, and it should have been in the news eons ago so that there would never have been any type of a stigma attached to any person,no matter their age.
Blessings, love and prayers for all, from Israel 🇮🇱.
Peace for all on this Earth and in this World.
Halie ur a strong person I struggle with depression everyday
The only issue I have any medication whether it is for mental health or any illness is the side effects, so please be very careful sweet girl!
Halie the strength is knowing when you need the help and getting it. I am very happy you have that strength. Can you do more gluten free reciepes as someone with pcos and celiac would be nice to see what you do.
It takes alot to realise that something is wrong and you need to get help. My realization came in January 2023. Driving home I wanted to drive my car down a bridge... Atleast I know my family loves me and will miss me, so I went to a doctor and psychiatrist. Went on antidepressants. And I feel much better. I feel more myself.
You are so brave to get the help you need. I struggled for years and would go on & off meds for depression & anxiety. I was shamed & intimidated by others to go off meds. Finally, a good friend talked me into going to my Doc & talking to her about it. She prescribed something for anxiety & depression & I haven’t looked back. Everything changed for me & I’ve been able to reach goals, set new goals and enjoy living. God has played a major part of my mindset & I’ve continued to trust Him more, plus have a more meaningful spiritual life. I love my family more & friends more. So, keep it up. Take care of yourself & be happy! Enjoyed this video!
Halie, I think this video was the best video I watched of yours! Mental Health is important & recognising when you need help. You are a wonderful young woman. You have come a long ways! It was cool that you painted the semi colon on the pumkin. Such a powerful symbol of mental health.
For work though, have you thought of training for a career in something that you like? Something to think about.
Love you❤
Hey Halie! glad to see you online! Ur an amazing woman God bless things will go ur way jus pray and have faith Love ya girlie ❤ So proud of you
You did great on the pumpkin!! Your so beautiful, strong, and independent young woman. I love watching you n your family's page!! ❤️
