a productive week in my life in nyc. the reality of living alone & getting out of rut (a vlog)

[@roslinney4285]

I am a 62 year old women living in the UK. Love your vlogs they are real. It will all be ok, nothing is not solvable. Stress doesnt help, it will make it worse. You are beautiful remember that, something i keep telling my daughter. You take care.

[@leeliberation]

Typically a silent observer; I'm a 41 year old recent widow from Toronto, Canada and a long time subscriber. There aren't many vloggers/youtubers in general that I can watch these days, but I watch yours because you truly come across real and down to earth and I value those qualities. Alexis, please continue to be your authentic self--that's who we are here to see and support. I know I don't come to youtube to watch other people live "perfect" lives...it's just not real or relatable, and there are so many aspects of life these days that are insincere, inauthentic, fake etc. Your people will find you (some already have). Keep on being unapologetically you

[@JoawMebs-im6ix]

Sorry for your loss

[@OHSuzyQ7]

I am 43yrs of age (but often am told I look like I am in my late 20s) and don't care for a lot of other KZbinrs... I don't like "fakeness" or people that want to be just like others lacking authenticity. I also like and appreciate Alexis' down to Earth real personality. She's my top fav KZbinr, watching every video. No one else has a channel like hers, that I have seen... and I've seen ALOT. Alexis, you are unique and beautiful just the way you are! 🥰😍 WE LOVE YOU! P.S. I do not see anything wrong with your face, we wouldn't even know if you didn't point it out.

[@narikavillabroza1610]

I never comment on videos but I just felt the need to tell you that I really really really love your videos. I think that us viewers prefer the real, raw day to day life instead of perfection. And that's why we're here 💛 it always feels like I'm hanging with a friend 🌻 so sorry that you're going through the rashes and the health anxiety, but thank you for being your funny, amazing, real self as always 💛

[@BrielleJuliet]

Okay as a fellow anxious girl in her 20s this vlog was so relatable lmao. adulting is stressful.

[@lauraelisee]

Anxious girl in her early 30s and same 😂

[@iamtabitha]

I love long vlogs so much

[@shane.s-747]

One more thing, you know you have a great channel when we watch for 54:36 and we could still watch more. Love the long vlog!!!😊

[@samanthashirazi4105]

Hi Alexis! I struggle with perioral dermatitis and it looks exactly like your rash. Saw a bunch of dermatologists as well with no help. I had to completely stop wearing makeup over the rash. I also stopped using skin care products over that area a well. It was the only thing that worked. Letting my skin breath and heal by itself. It took months but now it’s much better and I can use sensitive skin products on my skin and don’t have flare ups often. I also only use physical sunscreen on my face now.

[@DonovanDread]

You do a great job at setting a good vibe.

[@OHSuzyQ7]

I drink an iced matcha latte with almond milk (unsweetened almond breeze brand) and some stevia EVERYDAY for like the past 20 or so years. Seriously. It is SO healthy, with antioxidants, it being high alkaline and it TRULY helps with eye sight! It gives good happy energy, unlike some coffee that will make you feel bad, irritable or crash - because it is acidic (low alkaline) and has mold (hence the crash). After I drink the green tea, I have avocado toast (high alkaline) and then make ORGANIC coffee (low acidic, mold free also). Coffee has more pesticides than other food related items, so they say. So best to stick to organic, look up the side effects of pesticides. Cilantro removes heavy metals from the body, chew a small bunch everyday. Also, take NAC everyday. You may have a wheat gluten or dairy allergy. Intestinal candida, aka yeast overgrowth can also cause food allergies and yeast can cause rash. I have been battling with it for years from taking antibiotics long time ago. I would recommend not giving your cat nor yourself faucet water (worms/parasites and metals). Instead bottled water. I've been giving my cats bottled water for a very long time and they are healthy. Also, fleas can lead to worms... cats can go outside ONE time and come back with that problem.... sucks. You can give your cat coconut oil to eat everyday as it is anti - viral, bacterial, fungal. I also use it as butter for cooking or to put on veggies. After I apply the oil and then seasoning it literally tastes like butter to me. Butter has ALOT of bacteria in it!!!! Even organic butter! Has viruses and bacteria! Herpes is from dairy and cold sores and fever blisters are from dairy consumption. Herpes virus is IN and FROM dairy!!! I drink almond milk and also on a GF diet years now. Cat food with too much wheat gluten and grain can cause issues in cats, I buy the 4health grain free cat food online from tractor supply store - good price and quality. If I were in your situation I would buy that mini washer that you hook up to the kitchen faucet. You could hang dry some clothes on the shower curtain pole in bathroom and use you mini dryer. If you mentioned it here on your channel and created a go fund me or patron account I would donate money to you to help you purchase it. I am certain many others would also help you out!

[@frankfurthe6282]

54 minutes!!! GIRL you are taking care of us!!

[@andreeaandrei388]

I usually don't comment on videos, but i became addicted to yours, because I just really feel like i listen to a friend. When I come back from work I'm so excited to lay in bed and watch your video and trust me I'm not very easily entertained, but you have such a great personality and vibe going on. I'm sorry you're not feeling your best but I think we all can agree life is not easy, so things will get better with time, it's important to stay put and be optimistic. ❤

[@donna8264]

I’m one of many who follow you because of you!! We love your authenticity! You’re relatable and real!!! Don’t ever sell yourself short…we’re all pulling for you and supporting you!!! Keep up the great work…could watch your vlogs everyday!! ❤

[@susiew6851]

Have you thought about transitioning to decaf coffee. You could start out mixing half decaf and have regular. I know decaf still has a little bit of caffeine. I am a decaf iced coffee girl and I make it at home.

[@jenniferdacreativeexplorer]

Hey Alexis! Your videos are great. I love how honest, sarcastic and funny you are. You are so authentic and I appreciate that. I agree, everyone has shit going on. Life is not perfect and we are not meant to be. You’ll figure your skin thing out. Anyways, thanks for your videos. They are funny and entertaining.

[@louanndunlap]

When I got my dermatitis at 60 years old, I was very confused. I think stress has something to do with it. I do have a steroid cream to use when it flares, but it seems way less once I started just nit worrying about it. I get it under my chin as well.... I'm an anxious person like you, all my life....

[@louanndunlap]

Not😅

[@LuNaLoOn02]

Alexis your so funny sarcastic and above all REAL. Your also very relatable and i love the way u always bounce back from obstacles!! Yor vlogs really take my mind off my anxiety disorder and i really really relate to u as well. Thnx for being you!!

[@adriennehilll]

You are my new fav comfort KZbinr 🥹

[@elizabethromay5044]

Hi Alexis, I’m so sorry you’re having to go through this, especially the frustration of not knowing exactly what it is, even after seeing several dermatologists. I’ve had perioral dermatitis twice after using too many products that end up disrupting the skin barrier (acids, retinols, etc) … I had to go on antibiotics and a very basic cleanser and moisturizer routine and change my toothpaste to non fluoride. I hope you feel better soon, you look very pretty with or without a rash so try to not let it get to you too much. Big hugs, loved the long and honest vlog. ❤

[@iivajin]

I did not realize this was 54 mins! What a blessing❤❤

[@agasha21]

‚Every week has a different priority‘ - I love this !

[@theadrianadavila]

Hey there, I just wanted to pop in and say you are doing a great job. Your vlogs are always so fun and relatable. And with regards to the skin/rash issues...it is totally normal and ok to feel frustrated and cry about it. Just because other people have 'worse' or 'bigger' issues doesn't make your feelings any less valid. Let it out girl. Thank you for sharing your feelings with us, and for what it's worth, we all have scars, marks, scratches, etc. We all go through the motions. You are doing your best and you are beautiful!

[@yvettehatrak787]

Loved the video! Hope the reset sticks this week (I feel you!). One note re: skin issues-so many products constantly interchanged will take your skin down a rough journey. Bc influencers are sent so many products to try and brand deal, they are sacraficing the health of their skin. Stick with a 3 step face routine and give it some time. Treat your face kindly.

[@kimmie7263]

Love your apartment!!

[@ettieeyal7842]

I was in a rut for a while now due to losing my dog recently. I mean he was really old and had a wonderful long life but he moved with me to the city and now I feel soul deep loanly. No one can really understand you really. Like “Dude it's just a dog, snap out of it” and such…i mean no one actually dared say that but the message is there!! Anyway I kind of lost my routine and gave myself a break which you should never ever do because coming back from it is way more difficult then you think. One day I was surfing around and found you and you're so real and unpretentious and just trying to be your own better self and you just got to me. You go through normal people negotiation with yourself trying to eat healthier, be more social, self care, and so on, just basic routine stuff and I totally get you. Believe it or not it helped me so much this week and I finally feel my struggle is not unique and it's doable. Just if you don't mind cause I know you are there to advertise but I noticed you mentioned that Macha and your facial products if you can mention the name brand without breaking any rules of vlogging please do next time. I'd love trying something new. Btw one suggestion if you're interested in also not a yoga person. I always feel like I'm doing it wrong but I love Pilates it makes me feel like I put air between my joints and I'm walking tall. Anyway, thanks again you for getting me out of myself. I needed that.

[@gnajean]

Your vlogs are so much fun to watch! Hehe I’ve been on a binge with your videos lately!

[@alexiseldredge]

thank you so much!! ❤️

[@lillynassetta3814]

at the end of every day i sit down and watch your videos like clockwork im literally obsessed

[@Gshadow1000]

You along with Michelle and Aline have the best NYC Vlog videos ever to binge-watch any day of the week! ❤❤❤

[@sailorallie9046]

I get eczema flare ups from a lot of things but in particular scented stuff. So I switched to unscented everything (shampoo, conditioner, soap). I’d also try going really simple with your skin care for a bit like just rinse your face and use a really simple moisturizer. And avoid makeup. I used to get really bad eczema on my eyelids and finally realized it was my eyeshadow I was wearing

[@laurelk2002]

Girl. Your videos are literally my favorite. I always look forward to your videos. I don't care that you talk about your rash. You are REAL. You're the best!!!

[@jonathan2535]

If you’ve ever used topical steroids, stopping the use of them could cause topical steroid withdrawal. I went through it after grad school and it was horrible. It turned into eczema all over my face. The tumeric tea you drink is a good choice cause consuming anti inflammatory products was really helpful. I stopped my whole skin care routine and just used moisturizer for a whole year. I did use a natural soap from DR as well really really helped.

[@rynteresting]

Just wanted to say I love your vlogs for their authenticity. I appreciate your energy and openness and can't wait to see what's next for you! Keep on shining, girl, you're awesome.

[@becaboo-dv8dp]

Ohhhh Alexis, I so feel your frustration ❤️ It took me so long to figure out I had rosacea, and it took even longer to figure how to actually manage it. I used to (and let’s be honest, sometimes still do) get so embarrassed over my ruddy cheeks to the point where I could hardly leave home without full coverage foundation. The frustration has eased a lot now that I know my causes, but I still have occasional angry-crying days. You are so normal and valid for that. Remember that the other creators you compare yourself to, they are editing out their “hot mess” moments and showing the world their highlight reel. I much prefer your more raw, unfiltered self, rash and all ❤️❤️❤️

[@lodixe5947]

Rosacea sufferer here from France and i second what you said about realness ❤❤❤ we want to see real people online, i really hope you can figure out whats going on with your skin Alexis ❤

[@sarasworst]

the highs and lows honestly might just be like... your menstrual cycle. which is nothing to be ashamed of or resist, it honestly should be embraced!!

[@carolynlandrum668]

I love that long space that goes along your windows.

[@margaretkariuki375]

New subbie! Love how raw, sweet, and natural your vlogs are. You’re a gem on KZbin

[@CaroleBouchard1]

Hi! I've had this type of rash in the past for different reasons: 1) my skin had enough of all the products I was using and was just going wild. I threw it all, started from fresh with atopic skin products only: Roche Posay, Caudalie, Avene (I think they're in the US too). The least ingredients, the more organic ones, the better + use your hands more than cotton pads and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. 2) Allergies (anything from food to mite dust and pollen)... Have you tried taking antihistamine here and there when it flares up, just to see? I'm surprised no doc gave you some cream with a bit of cortisone to at least calm the flaring up. It's not ideal on the long run but when the crisis hits, it's a relief.

[@_bebeboudeur_]

some of these i need to remember, my family often used La Roche Posay as well I started using the Avene sunscreen and wanna try the Caudalie skincare, see if my red dry skin improves

[@tavaszisims]

I just found your channel through this vlog and you have been very comforting as I’m going through a huge transition moving to a new country! I love longer vlog formats, can’t wait for more videos!! ❤

[@halsievlogs]

I love how honest and real you are in your videos

[@emilyl3573]

Love how authentic you are and the long form content. I listened to the entire thing when I was working aha

[@thepragmatist]

KZbin is a lot of pressure full time (psychologically, etc). You're doing great. I appreciate your honesty about all aspects of your life. I wish you all the best!

[@therealreal202]

omg i am so excited to watch this long of a vlog yayyyy

[@carolynlandrum668]

This vlog popped up and I didn't notice it was a month old for a couple of seconds. When I did notice I decided to watch it again because I love your vlogs and decided an old vlog was better than anyone else's new one. Hence, I'm enjoying it again.

[@accordingtoalina]

Hi Alexis! I’m sure you’re not in need of yet another unprofessional opinion but (!!!) hearing you talk about your rash issue and gut issues in the same video rang a bell in my head. I have colitis which is a type of bowel disease and whenever I have a flareup I also get eczema on my hands and feet - always in the same spots! If I were you, I’d continue to look into gut/ autoimmune issues, just to make sure! Sending you love x

[@laurenmw9629]

Have you thought about doing half caffeinated half decaf coffee on the days when you don’t want too much coffee? Maybe an easier transition than going cold turkey to non-caffeinated tea

[@denverdubois5835]

I just switch to decaf, the water processed variety. Still delicious, but not so much extra "zing" LOL.

[@MM-gl5th]

I have watched your videos and really felt like I needed to subscribe and comment. You are real and relatable, but at the same time, you show me part of a life I have never experienced-New York life, talent, etc. I am 65 years old and I have loved my life, and I want to tell you those anxieties definitely disappear as you get older. I had the same type. Just be happy and keep growing. I love your apartment, your life you create for your self there, and your adorable little boy Bennett.

[@diane_1904]

You are beautiful! Everyone has insecurities and we are the hardest critics of ourselves. I love your videos. Don’t change a bit 🤗

[@victoriajolic2965]

Enjoyed your blog! It didn’t feel long at all. Love your conversations.

[@Billy33753]

Love the authenticity of your video

[@paincreatesfame]

Your natural waves are so pretty ❤️ I wish my hair looked that good when it air dried!

[@topes_soup]

even though its late where i am i couldnt stop myself from watching this whole vlog 😳 i’d love if you could share the recipes or where you got them from! i also want to eat healthier and that butter chicken looked sooo good! also, as someone who dealt with a lot of similar mystery skin issues a few years ago: you look beautiful, rash or no rash. i know its hard to *feel* beautiful, but as im sure you’ve already discovered, panicking about it isnt very productive. no dermatologist or doctor could figure out what was on my face either and i tried SO MANY creams and treatments to combat it, but i had it for YEARS. what ended up clearing it for me was applying coconut oil to it everyday. but ik some cases could be related to diet, or even stress. i do hope it goes away soon, but i would highly recommend being patient with it and doing trial treatment methods where you try something for a week or two and if it worsens or stays the same, you move on to something else. if something helps, stick with it until it doesn’t help anymore or until it clears. remember the whole body is connected, so changes in diet, exercise and emotional health can also be something you can track to see if theres any connection with flare ups ⭐️ lovely vlog, tysm for being so vulnerable and real with your audience! i can definitely relate 🧡

[@CanalMariLand]

Girly omg.. I know this is old but I hope you realized you’re allowed to feel things and be angry and that your pain is valid too. You’re still a influencer and KZbinr even if your life is not perfect all the time. You having your skin flair up is valid to talk about, you don’t need to feel like other people problems are bigger and you can’t talk about it. Let go of the expectations of the world cause those expectations are actually yours for you. You’re so authentic and you deserve to feel freee

[@ayakappp]

i came across your video yesterday and you’re already my favorite youtuber 🫶🏻

[@em.slowlyreading]

Thank you for your transparency with us!!! This is my favorite vlog yet. I’m not one to keep up with influencers but love your channel because it really is so realistic. Keep it up girl, we are all rooting for you

[@BrielleJuliet]

[@sarahjordanwrites]

SO here for the almost hour long vlogs! :)

[@rebeccacartier153]

Love the long vlog…l I used it to time myself cleaning my apartment. Have you seen a gastroenterologist… sometimes digestive issues can lead to skin rashes. Even though you haven’t had food issues in the past, they can develop as you grow and change environments.

[@theworkfromhomesteader]

"kind of expensive...because I got so many expensive things" lmao this is me

[@Simplylakesha]

Love the blog, hope your skin gets better, Lol Bennett is a vibe for sure. All of the food you made looked delicious.

[@alyipotova]

Just found your channel, this video, and I love it. You’re so real and I love that. Definitely got a new subscriber

[@itscarolinemary]

I love the shots you get of New York ❤🥹 love your vlogs! I watched half before bed and half this morning before work.

[@AndiRose0824]

Relatable content on the gut problem for sure. Thanks for being vulnerable. I struggled with it for SO long and got to the point where I ended up purchasing an at home food sensitivity test. Turns out some of the things I was eating every single day don't digest well for me like eggs, almonds, cashews. Stuff I thought was good for me was actually harming me...Best thing I ever did!

[@brittanye3701]

I'm really liking this vlog! So fun/entertaining watching you figure all your 20 something ish out lol! You're doing well cooking, limiting caffeine, taking walks. Go Alexis!

[@guccibagbandit]

hey girl! just wanted to say, i’m also addicted to coffee and have been having multiple cups a day for years now. i decided to make a switch to tea also but i switched to black tea witch has about the same amount of caffeine as a cup of coffee so you won’t get the migraines!! pro tip!! ❤

[@cassidyy0220]

I LOVED the long vlog!! It was the perfect video to turn on while I got ready for school this morning 😊

[@lisamargaret6751]

I am truly inspired by your KZbin journey and as a special education teacher with way too much on my plate, I dream of the courage to try to make income as you are doing! You are a queen!

[@jeanette_009]

Totally relate to the skin issue thing, and your feelings are so valid. Appreciate your honesty & vulnerability ❤ Love the vlogs!!!

[@Cherurei1109]

I thought of a couple of things with your rash. Do you usually let your face wash sit on your face for a couple of minutes before you rinse it off? Right now I am using a Korean face wash, and let it sit on my skin for a minute or two before rinsing and it is helping heal my skin. But also.. I’m sure you already know that L’Oréal purchased cerave, and some of their formulas have changed in the last couple of years. I’m wondering if that could be it?

[@Tiffanyapplesful]

i lovess the longer vlogs

[@CWGbyChery]

I’ve had a similar flare up before. Around my eyes, and neck. It’s itchy, feels hot and creates texture on the skin. The only thing that made it calm down was a steroid pill, steroid cream and minimal skincare. Super minimal, gentle face wash and aquaphore (eucirin). My doctor had said it’s an allergic reaction/ eczema. I was emotional too, everything I did seems to make it worse. What you are feeling is normal.

[@nina15625]

I have eczema too and allergic to perfumes 😅 hear you! The dermatologist was very pessimistic

[@gkge]

I had the same thing. Ironically, turns out I'm allergic to Clinique and Neutrogena and anything hypoallergenic. Try something really basic like cetaphil and you might need a steroid to clear it up.

[@carolbradley4845]

You are very relatable and funny! I enjoyed your video! Thank you. I know it’s a lot of work. New subscriber from Texas ❤

[@charlotteborthwick9103]

love your videos, so comforting

[@suelyons531]

I love the million-hour vlog! So glad Bennett is all better and I hope you are feeling a little better now. It's okay to be sad about your not feeling 100% you but I have confidence you will figure this out and how to treat it. I honestly can barely see anything. It's going to be okay!

[@doggman824]

love this long vlog. I hope you start doing long vlogs likes this once a month.

[@rachelbutler1058]

Re skin issues. I had awhile where my skin flared up all around my chin and mouth and a dermatologist did legit nothing. Now, I am not saying this could be the nausea of yours, but it's always good to hear other people's experiences. Mine ended up being an underlying infection in my body. My pH get imbalanced VERY easily and for some reason it showed itself on my face. So! Once I got a course of antibiotics and then probiotics, everything cleared up. And now I just do everything I can to keep my pH in order and it seems to help. Food for thought. Also, for me, the simpler the skin care, the better.

[@charlyloh2656]

Loved this 🥰 and the length was perfect! Almost cleaned my entire apartment to this ❤

[@woildloife777]

I like your vlogs because they are really authentic 😊 when I’m stressed and I get my face rash it helps if I just use the most basic moisturizer for a few days or a little bit of stereoid cream. Or sometimes I take a allergy pill. Hope this helps.

[@lethiapage4767]

Hey girlie. I'm mostly a lurker but I work nights and have a lot of free time so when I saw an almost hour video I knew it would help me get through the shift. Thanks for keeping me company! So something you should look for is a zoodle maker. The one I think for you is sort of hourglass shaped pair of giant pencil sharpeners, connected at the points, about the size of a soda can. It's about 10 bucks. Cheap and easy. Make your zoodles as you eat them so your zucchini stays fresh longer. Coconut is such a great oil. Just don't get it too hot. Nothing wrong with olive oil either. Both oils are great for almost anything. When I was little I would get rash. Sometimes it was from sensitivity to soap and not rinsing well. But other times it was pure stress. It wasn't always hives or visible. So... mental health and self care can help with random rashes. I'm proud of you for all the changes made. If you start falling back into old unwanted habits just step back and focus on tiny changes you can make. Give yourself a week to develop each little thing into a new habit. Like maybe this is the week you skip coffee but then that's all you are working on. Tea is literally any herb steeped in hot water, not always proper tea. Try any herb you like to cook with. Basil comes to mind. A fav is mint! You can also add lemon or vanilla to your tea. You can make agua fresca. Blended fresh fruit with sparkling water, served over ice. Look for manuka honey. It's Australian I think and extra special medicinal properties. I used it for an open wound after I was injured in a fire. You can try it on your acne and on your rash or make a hair mask. Later! Also you look so much like Lady Gaga.

[@lethiapage4767]

Go to an allergist.

[@lethiapage4767]

You are describing imposter syndrome where you feel like you are faking your life and aren't nearly as qualified doing your thing as you put out there. Its huge feeling of insecurity. That's a mental health thing and can be very very stressful. Maybe that is part of why you have that rash. You are right. Ev got shit going on.

[@emelyandtheuke]

as someone who grew up sick and actually DO have a “listen to your body” basis + extreme anxiety and panic disorder, you can imagine its a fun ride 🤪 health anxiety is so real and needs to be talked about more often, especially with us consuming so much media that’s like “do this, do that! gut health! heart health! hormonal balance! seeds!” it can be a lot. I think the listening to yourself is more like, one you disconnect from meditate in a calm space, breathing thoroughly, how do you feel? listen to THAT and not much else. its a learning curve for sure and anxiety begets health issues so its ironic and difficult but as long as you slow down and listen so you *get to know* your body, you can then trust it to tell you when something is wrong

[@Its.me_Effie]

Love ur vloggs!! And this long one👌 I follow u because I LOVE that you are so real and share the things that u do.

[@Swendt8328]

My best friend just moved to Manhattan! Super excited to come see Central Park it looks beautiful ❤I also love your videos. I came across your channel not to long ago and I’m so glad I did !

[@alexiseldredge]

that’s so fun! Central Park is so pretty, especially in the fall! ❤️

[@Swendt8328]

Iv only been once and it was forever ago but I’m also 26 but I live in Washington state not very fun compared to NYC lol

[@salleycat]

So I've been struggling with maybe? Perorial dermatitis on and off for a few years now and some things that have helped mine: - Osmia black clay soap - Cutting out sodium laureth sulfate in all skin and hair care - cutting out any type of foaming face products - check your toothpaste. Changing toothpastes seems to cause it to flare up for me Hopefully this can give you some relief! I know the struggle and it sucks, especially because it's on your face.

[@sarahwilliamsandco]

loved the long video :) i'm sorry your skin is getting you down. i've had eczema my whole life and it still gets me down when i have bad flare ups so it's not silly at all to let it affect you. but crossing my fingers you can find something that helps you soon!

[@venusbucci4829]

Don’t worry everyone has a bad day!Just a tip,I drink matcha at home, when you mix your matcha mix it with your frothier in a separate cup, put milk and ice in the cup you want to drink it in , then put a splash of agave or sugar free vanilla, then poor the matcha into that cup and mix. It taste a lot better I found! Hope this helps!I drink water drop and love most of the flavors! I have dermatitis on my hand and I use coconut oil and vasaline mix together because my skin has flair ups and when I mix the two together and apply it to the effect areas it helps a lot, you could try that!

[@jennyr.omalley1769]

Echoing what other people are saying - your realness and authenticity are very likable. It's way more appealing to watch your real-life struggles than influencers who pretend to have perfect lives.

[@lauraelisee]

Love your videos!! 🩷😊

[@VaneezyTV]

Hi sis, just found you a few weeks ago. Love your content and your energy. Sooo I have that too, the anxiety of becoming ill, it's called hypochondrisis. We are hypochondriacs. Im actually struggling with it pretty bad too... I think it's bc of how chaotic the world is. Keep doing what you're doing, I'm actually starting my new routine today as well. Also in the mornings, right when you wake up, drink warm water with a splash of apple cider vinegar. It's great for... so many things! It gives you energy, betters your metabolism, helps with burning fat, keeps you full longer so you don't over eat, helps with skin... etc. Detoxes .. lol. Sending your a virtual hug! -Vanessa

[@briana2397]

Thank you for the hour long vlog ❤️ I’ve been hooked to your videos for like 4 months! I hope you can figure your rashes out!! Much love

Thankyou for being real and honest and having the guts to experiment with food. I’ve recently been growing mushrooms from a kit. Fresh mushroom cooked with,olive oil,garlic, lemon and salt added at the end. Tastes fantastic and great for mental health, all that vitamin B. You ll be amazed ;)

As a fellow anxious and health anxious woman in her 50s... this is also so relatable! But it will be OK... take it a day at a time, and be kind to yourself. Life is hard sometimes!

I tried a lot of products I had this on my lips the start of summer...on my skin too. I finally decided to try vaseline for some reasons and it works the minute I put it. It still coming back but vaseline really helps for me, it makes it goes away after 1-2 days. if you havent tried vaseline yet give it a go. may be it can help to reduce the effect.

I only get egg yolks, not the yukky whites. I have an egg separator. It works really well. I put sliced cucumbers in my water. It's delicious.

Hey there, On the face rash front. Research ozone. My hubby gets rashes from flying and when there is high ozone. It might be worth it to track ozone levels in New York and see if it lines up with your rashes.

I’m half way through your video, and still watching! - not many people I would watch a 54 minute video for lol. I use to get rashes under my chin due to hayfever and food allergies. When you were talking about it being itchy and what was happening it kinda rang a bell. Feel free to ignore but thought I’d make the suggestion. Totally understand about health anxiety. It’s really difficult when you have different things going on and your not sure why. Hope you get your answers and thank you for talking about it so openly xx
