[@bunnybaby2657]

i'm actually crying, this is helping me so much. I started crying because of how overwhelmed I was, about everything I was doing wrong or not "trying" hard enough. But watching this video, literally a minute in, I feel so relieved by knowing i'm not alone. When she said "go take notes"... I paused, ran to my journal, and started writinggggg!!! Thank you so much for this video!!!

[@alessyafarrugia]

omg you’re gonna make ME cry🥺 it makes me beyond happy that i can help you, YOU GOT THISSS❤️

As someone with depression and depression episodes every now and then, I’m glad u posted this. I realized I actually go through these burnouts pretty often. It doesn’t help that I have anxiety on top of that so you can see how it can affect my mindset.

[@naitrigupta-tz7zx]

I am in the same situation and trust me everything feels like failure, frustrating, no one is here but everyday I just hope that things get better

[@bleeding.hearts]

This video couldn’t have come at a better time! Yes, we have to drag ourselves out of those hard times in our life at some point, but its so so equally important to maintain a good sense of self love and take time to appreciate your achievements so you won’t fall back into the gloom all over again. Great points as usual Alessya!

[@alessyafarrugia]

yesss these times teach you how important it is to be your own best friend and biggest supporter, ilyyy😘

[@lucypearl.drafts]

last year i had a really hard year, especially the first 3 terms. i was suffering a lot, and the only friends i vented to didn't help at all. i couldn't talk to anyone and felt all alone. only the last term i started becoming more active and being clean. i told myself this year would be different, and it was! ive unfortunately had a lot of friend issues lately and ive gone off being clean. not proud, but im getting better. if i want to feel happy i watch your videos. thankyou for healing me through 2 tough years, glad to know im not alone. love you alessya

Some advice for my insecure queens, if you don't like how you look in the mirror, look in the mirror. Stare your body down and realise it's not scary. its beautiful, wait a minute, since when did I have such a pretty smile? OMG IM BEAUTIFUL (See?)

[@floralfaun]

Hearing you say your best self isn't being perfect, it's how you deal with things struck me. I needed to hear that as I've also been putting inhumane expectations on myself and falling apart when I can't meet those. Thank you.

[@safakayyy]

your channel is so comforting and so therapeutic to watch. i hope you post more consistently 💕

[@Emalia444]

This video really came at a perfect time. I've been having such a hard time it's like my entire body has been worn out I can sleep 15 hours and still be so tired so thank you this video gave me the motivation to get up and workout, make a healthy breakfast and journal how I feel and the amount of tears I let out after truly understanding myself was worth it. because i truly felt better in the end thank you so much I wish you only the best in life

This is adhd. Was diagnosed officially a few years ago. So many people are undiagnosed especially women.

[@sapphireisthe1]

I’m so done with being lazy. I barely go out and sometimes i won’t shower for days 🤢. I honestly don’t like it. I need to start being more productive and quit this cycle ( it’s been happening for like 3 years)

[@SmilingBike-hi7kz]

It's been a week now, since i started this journey. And I've had people talk to me about my personality and traits of biopolar and other negative feedback from friends and family. I FORGET things and i feel depressed almost every day. I found it difficult to be around people and thought i was helping myself and others, because i felt wired and different. But since i started watching your videos i kinda feel relieved. Like finally someone understands me and I'm really grateful. I love you ❤❤❤❤

[@farheenreshi]

Past 2 years have been like this. Its getting better though. A lot of effort goes in. And though it took multiple starts, there are still days when I lose track and have to start all over again. Its painful while you are healing from any damn thing. You gotta love yourself enough to pick yourself up from the lowest of the lows and never give upon yourself ❤

[@alessyafarrugia]

one day you’re going to look back on these hard times you’ll be so proud of yourself for not giving up🥰 everything happens for a reason

[@Tsag03]

Keep going im so proud of you

[@aura6618]

I was the only person around my environment who knew what a burnout was bc Im experiencing it and no one was able to relate to me but somehow videos like these came out the past days of amazing ppl like u who are willing to help us getting out of this uncertain process. Tysm alessya 💌

[@Tiger1970]

I can’t describe how accurate this was for my situation. Over the summer ive literally felt the lowest of lows and have lacked complete motivation to do even the basic things to the point where I didn’t feel like myself. But hopefully once I go back to school, and have an actual schedule that i stick to, as well as going on runs ill feel better. Tysm for this video lmao it couldn’t have come at a better time

[@marier4215]

I cannot express how grateful I am for this video. I was feeling really bad just before watching it and now after taking a few notes and felt like I was not the only one feeling this way, it made my mood a lot better. Thank you x

[@allison_b23]

I just came onto KZbin, and saw your new video. I cannot even describe the amount of joy I felt I that moment.

[@kyrxpr]

i have never related to something so much before 😭 . this came at the right time for me esp with the new school year coming up, i've been extremely unproductive and i have been knocking myself about it. tysm for this 💞💞

[@aliceragone9224]

I didn't even know I needed this video. In this weeks I watched many videos about productivity and none was like your. You transmitted calm and peace. Than you girl!

I feel you because I've been going through the same things. sleeping for hours and still exhausted all day long... I started crying when you said 'its okay if you take 1 step forward and 5 steps back; girl, I take 1 step forward and 20 back'. that's so real? I realized how much I'm focused on the main goal that just seems impossible.. I gotta try to focus on the next hour at least thank you Alessya

“Life will always throw shit at you” omg that’s so true… I always think “as soon as I’m done with this I’ll take a break, as soon as this is over I’ll rest” but it’s true! There will always be another thing. It’s how you handle yourself and your tasks that will determine how you feel
