YES TO THERAPY!!! I literally rave about therapy to EVERYONE hahah. I'm all for taking care of your emotional and mental health

[@victoriagarrickbrowne]

hahahah I love this energy Sam ❤️ I feel the same!

Thank you so much for normalizing so many things. It gives so many people including me the bravery to do things that we never had the courage to do before

[@victoriagarrickbrowne]

of course! will always be here for that ❤️

Thank you, Victoria! I feel so much more secure when people stop acting like therapy is something bad and signs of weakness. Your video helped me a lot, so thank you for normalizing it and making clear, that it‘s very helpful and that you should take the opportunity to get professional help when you need it.

[@victoriagarrickbrowne]

of course!! thats my #1 goal! ❤️

[@radzhoops]

Just saw your Ted talk for the first time because a student (actually 3 separate students) of mine shared it for a health assignment, so that’s why I’m checking out more about your KZbin channel. Just wanted to let you know that you are making a positive impact on many people by being so transparent regarding your challenges with your mental health. Thanks!

[@hannahreeves6300]

I love how vulnerable you were in this video. Applause to you. I understand where everything was coming from. I have never been one that suffers from anxiety, so this kind of opens up a lot of things that I kind of never really knew before. I love your positivity!

[@victoriagarrickbrowne]

aw thanks Hannah this really does mean a lot to me ❤️ I appreciate you!

[@MargaretElizabethLLC]

Yes yes yes don’t even have to get more than one second in to comment! Therapy is so so so helpful and there is such a huge stigma, one that I’ve experienced myself. I went to therapy for the first time in June and I wish I had gone so much sooner. It is so helpful to talk to someone and have them ask the important questions, and cry sometimes. You are amazing and I so appreciate you bringing light to these important things surrounding mental health. Sending light and positivity your way! You continue to inspire me to really face my anxiety and eating disorder head on!

[@victoriagarrickbrowne]

thanks so much Margaret I appreciate this comment big time girl! Totally agree and so glad you also find it helpful and want to de-stigmatize the experience. ❤️

OMG I honesty love therapy I can't stress enough how important it is to take care of you mental health.

Every single person can benefit from therapy. I have been going for the past year, and it has completely changed my life!

[@rachelbrenzel3853]

i literally love therapy like i talk about my stuff all the time but talking to a person who specializes in it is so good because they can explain why and how to cope with it

[@madiihunt]

there's such a weird stigma on therapy, so thank you for this

[@victoriagarrickbrowne]

of course!!

[@shortenedhistory]

You're honestly so valid- thank you for your content and advice about everything! I recently funished a run of CBT (Cognative Behavioural Therapy) in regards to my anxiety, and it was real scary going at first- but it definitely has helped me!

[@EmThrives]

Thank you so much for sharing such meaningful, vulnerable content. I feel like people like you are so necessary in this world. Thank you for using your voice to make the world a better place.

Also your podcast is great:)

[@yuwunee]

thank you so much for normalizing all of this! i had my first session a week ago and i am so glad i went, actually you’re the one who gave me strength to ask for help so thank you so much :)

[@Silasroemer]

I love and appreciate that you find therapy helpful. I've tried it multiple times and it doesn't help for me. I don't trust a random person to hear me cry about my traumas. Like yes, I understand how people would find it beneficial and healing, but it wasn't the case for me

[@victoriagarrickbrowne]

Hmm I'm sorry that it wasn't helpful for you! Everyone is different ❤️

Your such a understanding person and you help so much thank you Vic💓

[@syd.debruler.1509]

I feel like I need a therapist but I’m too afraid to ask my parents because I feel like they will feel that I don’t need it because I put on a face all the time acting like everything‘s ok, maybe I’m just overreacting but I’ve had a lot of mental breakdowns lately and it’s hard but I’m getting through it.

[@lilystegall844]

If you feel like you need some help, by all means ask for it! We all need help sometimes, and I feel as though your parents should understand and respect that! You are very valid!!☺️☺️

[@mariathielen7581]

For a long time I felt exactly the same way!! But literally everyone can benefit from therapy, you don't have to wait until you're in a mental health crisis. I finally built up the courage to talk to my parents and they were fully supportive of the idea. Now I am going and it's been great! I encourage you to talk to your parents about it.

[@scarletrose1072]

I know this struggle

[@madds14]

I had 4 anxiety attacks this week it sucks :/

[@itsnembus]

I just signed up for therapy through my doctor legit yesterday. I'm nervous to meet my therapist but I know it will help me a lot. I don't have anything diagnosed but sometimes people just need help, small or big! Thank you so much for this video! It's made me feel so much better and more prepared for my session!

[@alisonhoffman204]

thank you Vic, this really helped me. I’ve been thinking about starting therapy recently for a lot of reasons. It was nice to hear about your experience including what you talk about and the possibility of taking medication.

i am not against therapy AT ALL and i've actually been considering asking my parents if i could go (but we're low on money and i've also just been too scared lol) but now my dad has forced me to go to therapy and there's something about being forced into it that just makes me dislike it so so much and ya, i just needed to put this out somewhere :)

I’m starting to go to open gyms for club. I’ve been playing since 7th but am trying out for the 16s team. I feel like I’m not good enough.

[@jojofoeshow22]

Get that “I’m not good enough” vibe out of your head. It’s not worth your time. I’m in the same boat as you and what helps me is that I tell myself “you are good enough” “practice is going to be amazing” etc. while smiling in the mirror everyday before practice even if I’m having a mental breakdown about it! This is such a small step but it has helped me so stinking much! You got this! I believe in you!

[@scoobydoobydoo8069]

I get really stressed about volleyball because I’m a starter on a 1’s team and I started having asthma attacks and an old injury started hurting again, so I hate practices now. I get jittery and nervous before practice which makes it hard to breathe, which makes me have attacks, which makes me even more stressed. Just wondering some tips? I’ve tried a couple breathing exercises but I’m worried that I’m just overthinking it

[@madds14]

I went to therapy for 8ish months but I stopped bc I didn't trust my therapist and that made it unhelpful. So I didn't want to waste my parents money. I might have to go back to get on meds bc currently my ADHD is acting up so badly that I can't read anymore. Which ofc is making my anxiety and depression worse. Which affects my eating disorder. Which affects my OCD. So really I'm just a mess.

hey, I love you videos I hope you feel better and I got a question to ask I know this is probably related to the video but does the height really matter if you can jump about 7 feet high long or longer? because my door is 8 feet long and I can jump that high with an approach run and without and my name is Fatimah and I am a girl who is 5'1 in middle school
