@@DwarvesAndDice yes, seeing all of the colours puts me in such a summery mood x

I am so glad that you found this video helpful, I wanted to show that there is always hope. I honestly felt so trapped too and work places often want you to feel that way. Honestly for me taking two months out helped me so so much to get a fresh perspective on things. Could you ask for a sabbatical maybe? I think we start to not see a way out but there is always an alternative. It’s great that you can at least work remotely but if you are burnt out maybe you should consider looking for something with less hours or you could stay another year and try and invest your money and somehow get financial freedom (only do this if you don’t feel too burnt out though). I have found that staying made things worse for me, because I went against my own body. Just be aware that you will have difficult days after you decide to quit but I found it 100% worth it

@@DanasDiary. Thank you for your reply. While I am not financially free, I have saved up enough money to give me a runway of 1 year and try to explore what I want to do. But like you mentioned, I am also doing what you did and pushing things every 1-2 months out and seeing if it gets better. I eventually got this role to be remote and then I tried even traveling around to see if it would get better, because who walks away from a 200k fully remote job? It’s not like I am even working crazy hours, it’s quite normal but I just hate the work and forcing myself to do it take every bit of mental and emotional energy that I am just drained by the end of the day. I feel like staying each day will make it worse, I am going to quit in 2-3 weeks time. I actually have a week off next week during the July 4th weekend and to really decide. What I really like is that you found that it is 100% worth quitting and since I am feeling close to where you are, I have to think it will be 100% worth it for me too.

Thank you so much ☺️

I think it’s the 2019 normal ipad ☺️

Thank you for the kind words :) It's definetly an extroverted world that we live in. Hopefully you can find something that suits you better. Honestly I always think it's worth quitting if your mental health is severly impacted. Quitting was the only thing that got me out of feeling that way It is really looking up for me at the moment, I just need to decide whether to go part time in a different line of work or do full time again. Hope things are looking up for you too :)

I will try to make a video on it soon ☺️

@@DanasDiary. Perfect! I've been really enjoying the videos just so you know!

@@DwarvesAndDice thank you so much ☺️

Thank you ☺️ I find that so interesting to look at as well

Yes, the sooner you start the better and it’s super easy ☺️ I would recommend just opening an account with Vanguard (they are an online bank) and investing in the S&P 500

You can ☺️ what are you up to? I bet Turkey is nice this time of the year :)

I'm a university student. I want to be friends with you. I would be very happy if you help me learn English. How can I contact with you.

I wrote to you on Instagram. I guess you don't want it, then I will be friends with someone else.

Oh I could do that as I know a little bit about that, I used to work in retail interiors ☺️

@@DanasDiary. Then you can really go into detail about it, even better! I think that would be awesome if possible

@@DanasDiary. I was wondering your thoughts on the ceiling?

@DwarvesAndDice yes, I can definitely try. It’s a great idea, I have 5 or 6 shorts pre-filmed that will go up first though ☺️

@@DwarvesAndDice sorry only just saw this comment now. They have left all the ducting exposed and painted it white which is quite common in retail. I quite like when stores make a feature of the pipework and paint it black :) how do you feel about the ceiling?

Yess, this song is fun ☺️

i think it is 😂

Maybe it was in the kids section, it was tiny

It was in the Women’s section but a really stretchy material 😂😂

Hey, thank you for your comment ☺️ I will do, I can definitely speak about what I did

@@DanasDiary. ok thanks!

Thank you so much, I feel so much better now, just taking that time off has helped so much ☺️

Thank you for your kind words, that means a lot, there is about 4 years time that passed between the two

Thank you! 💕 I think my favourite one was the third one (the small store) I learned a lot in the last one that was group work and then applied what I learned to the 3rd project (which I handed in after the 4th). I learned a lot in that one too, how to lay out a presentation and the mood board and concept sketches got better in that one. My teachers were so helpful with my learning ☺️

Thank you so much, that means a lot 🥰

Thank you so much! I am using the Iphone 13 in Cinematic mode

They are so reasonable ☺️ I love them because they are so cheap, most things are under £10. I might have even gotten a few things 🥰

@@DanasDiary. ohhh upcoming haul??? Glad to hear the prices are good because its all so cute!

@DwarvesAndDice maybe I will add it into a short, I didn’t buy enough to make a whole video on it ☺️

@@DanasDiary. Ahh ok, a little short would be nice too!

So well put, we definitely need money but if we are unhappy every day and getting paid a lot, all that money is worth nothing. Unless it lets us retire super quickly 😂 thank you I hope you can find it too

Thank you so much for your kind words ☺️ that is very true, job satisfaction definitely depends on who you are working with. It’s definitely good Not to rely on only one income stream. I agree, it’s sad that we have to focus on money so much, if we didn’t have to I feel like we would all be a lot happier 🥰 Thank you so much, I already feel so much better, what a difference a month makes

Thank you so much ☺️

I am glad you enjoyed the video ☺️ the reserve is lovely and the hotel in general is great! I would 100% go again, hope you enjoy your holiday!

I am so sorry to hear that 😕 I hope things get better for you! I think it is really important to listen to yourself and if your mental and physical health is telling you to leave then it might be time. But definetly try to prepare for quitting and save up a bit before you leave. I just filmed a video on when to leave and how to go about it 10 min ago and it will be up on Thursday, you don't have to watch it but I thought I would mention it in case it might be helpful ☺

@@DanasDiary. hasnt gotten better at all. with regards to savings, i have been preparing from the last 7 years, so am ok with that. And i didnt know my anxiety was this bad. Physical symtoms have been there years ago, just didnt think it was the stress and anxiety. Lack of sleep, digestive issues

@@hanifjones4914 I am sorry to hear that, have you handed in your notice yet? Wow, 7 years, I can't belive you managed to stick it out for that long! Yes, I think it takes some time o realise that it is the stress that is causing all of these issues. I am glad you managed to figure out what the trigger was. I think now it's important to be kind to yourself and really take a proper break. It's fine to look after yourself and heal :) Digestive issues really seem to be a common theme with work anxiety, I have heard from several people that they struggle with it as well. You are definetly not alone and it will get better if you put yourself first for a little while now ☺

@@DanasDiary. Well i've been there since 2010, it all hit me in 2012, thats when the anxiety took a turn for the worse. Just figured out the cause of symtoms 2 weeks ago. So i've started preparing since then, but it took awhile. Life has its curve balls

@@hanifjones4914 oh wow, did you stay in the same job all this time after 2012? Finding out the cause ist the first step and so crucial. Wishing you all the best healing! I still have lots of healing to do myself. I am thinking of starting therapy once I have a bit of an income again. Watching KZbin videos has helped me so much so far (just to figure out what caused me to burn out). Just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to comment and share your story with me ☺️

Hey, yes I want to try and get more into shorts but am lacking ideas for shorts ☺️

You Englisch already sounds good to me ☺️

​I think like you and I trust myself.

Yes, I know that my name in Turkish means veal/calf and I know the words aşkim and tamam but that’s it ☺️

I like that you know Turkish words, so let me teach you one more word in English Yes=Evet(Turkish)

Thank you ☺️ that’s so kind!

Es ist alles das gleiche Hotel, es stimmt dass die Zimmer im runden Gebäude teurer sind, aber selbst wenn man das günstiger “main building” bucht kann man das Restaurant, die Bar und die Lounge im runden Gebäude benutzen. Das runde Gebäude ist nur “adults only”. Ich frage mich, ob das Hotel vielleicht in Deutschland als zwei unterschiedliche Hotels beworben wird (die Tui Webseite hat da Unterschiede) aber an sich ist alles ein Hotel.

@@DanasDiary. Das kann sein was du sagst!

Hey, so far I have taken a month out, I kept my money really tight the last 6 months of working to save up, I would recommend around 6 months living expenses in savings, so that you have time to find something new. I am in the process of sending out some applications at the moment and have decided for myself that I am doing something part time for the moment while I navigate through this burnout, just to cover my basic living expenses and when you quit living expenses reduce slightly because you don’t have to travel to and from work. And I am slowly trying to build some other income streams online, so that I am not dependent on one single income stream. But that takes some time ☺️

Yes, to a part of it by the shore, it was really lovely and I wanted to go back and see more but the week was over so quickly 😂

It was amazing 😍 I want to go back already 😂 in terms of vegan food, there was bread, a salad bar and a wrap bar and a vegan wok but that was pretty much. It wasn’t that great option wise and would definitely get a bit repetitive after a few days, so I recommend the A la carte restaurants. They had at least one vegan option ☺️

The earrings are from a company called E & e 🤍

💕

Is it not sunny in Scotland? As we are speaking it’s actually sunny in England for once ☺️

@@DanasDiary. Yeh this the first sun we've seen in a while, quite nice but still quite cold overall

I am sure it will pick up soon ☺️ it’s 22 degrees this weekend over here 😳

Thank you for your comment ❤️

Heey 😊 greetings from England!

I love foreign peoples 😊​@@DanasDiary.

@@muhammetyoutube Thank you ☺️ I do too, love learning about different cultures :)

​@@DanasDiary.I'm learning English what would you recommend to me learn English

@@muhammetyoutube When I first learned English honestly watching KZbin videos in English helped me so so much and travelling to other countries where you can speak English helps, practice is key :) You can also see if you can watch any of your favourite shows in English and watch them with subtitlesin Turkish if that helps. I have also heard that Duolingo is great for the basics :)

Thank you so much for your kind comment. I am doing amazing after quitting and have been doing so much inner work. I will film a couple of videos soon of how I have been doing if you would like 😊

@@DanasDiary. No worries at all, I'm very glad you're doing well, yeh that sounds lovely thank you!

Thank you lovely, this is a flat in Loughborough ☺️

They are so gorgeous ☺️ thank you so much, I love the Lego modulars in particular. They look soo nice displayed x

@@DanasDiary. I feel like lego is becoming less of a toy and more of a display piece

@DwarvesAndDice agreed ☺️ and there are a lot more sets for adults now

@@DanasDiary. KI think I'm going to get myself some in the future, only issue is it's surely a dust magnet 😅😂

I love them 😍 can’t believe they were so cheap. Even at Ikea nice dining chairs are at least £60. Yes, it is somewhat new, I have used it a while ago maybe once or twice 😂 thank you for the compliment xx

Aw thank you, I love making them ☺️ I was thinking of sharing my new flat as well

I have missed doing KZbin videos so much too! :) I am back now, already have some new videos lined up ☺x

You are so kind, thank you 😊 That is a great idea! I have watched it before but never thought I was good enough to apply, I will need to have a look into it 🥰
