I was originally planning on making a whole new channel dedicated to casually posting these talks every now and then. Honestly there is no need. I'll probably do these 'Let's Talk' every now and then just to help release some tension within my mind. For those of you who watched until the end. Love

*virtual hugs* I just want to say what you’re going through and how you are feeling right now is perfectly normal for someone your age. It will get better. I am older and been in your shoes many years ago. You are still growing into the person you will become. Most people don’t become themselves until their in their 30s. You have plenty of time. Enjoy the ride/journey in becoming you. By 30 most people will find the career path they will follow. They will know their likes and dislikes. I guess you can say you become set in your ways. I am sitting here smiling at you because I think you have a great out look on life even while you are ranting. 😉 You keep being you and don’t let the negativity of social media bring you down. There are good people out there. And don’t feel like you have to please everyone. First off that’s impossible. Everyone has different likes. The only person you need to please is yourself. And FYI it’s ok to rant now and again. 👍 💜

This is exactly the reason I don’t use Instagram. It’s just an endless cycle of fake ➡️ sadness ➡️ pressure to be perfect ➡️ and then the pressure causes people to cave in and post fake shit. It’s not healthy in the LEAST. You need to do *YOU.*

I love this video ❤️ I've been watching your videos for a month now I think and I love your reactions and your voice a lot. There is so much truth in it and so many things I can relate... I'm 23 and you can not even imagine how much time I've been lost like... I've been study this degree (Chemical Engineering) for 5 fucking years and I'm so tired of it... And last year I realized this is not my passion at all but I've been studying this degree for so long, so, I don't want to quit now. If I quit now I'm going to feel like I've been losing my time and those are 5 years man, that's a lot of time, I wished I had realized earlier. At least, I think that my mental health is getting a little better because of therapy, I don't think I have suffered from depression but I believe that maybe I was about to suffer depression, like, I think I was in the limit. Luckily, I started to go to therapy at the right moment and I'm a little better now, I don't torture myself with horrible thoughts that often anymore. I still have other problems but, yeah... I think I'm getting better. Moreover, I agree with you about social media, two months ago, I realized that I was comparing myself to other people more than I thought. That's why I decided to uninstall Instagram. I still have Twitter but I don't follow a lot of people there, what I see the most on Twitter are artists posts (BTS, Giveon, Måneskin...) and some youtubers posts. I think it was a good decision if I'm honest, because I kept seeing people on Instagram going out with friends, traveling, working out, trying new things, etc, while I was just studying a degree unmotivated and that's very sad. I think I'm going to come back to Instagram soon but I will create a new account and I'm going to follow only a few people and the artists I like there. Anyways, I'm sorry if my english is not the best, I'm from Spain. I hope you, me, all of us find ourselves and learn to love ourselves. Keep ranting! I like it! ☺️🥺

i really love these videos, linton 🥺 personally, i was diagnosed with clinical depression and social anxiety as a teen and i'm still managing them right now. however, what really helped me was reconnecting with my culture. i'm Inuk and i grew up in nunavut until i was 13 and then suddenly moved down south and was thrown into a completely different culture. since then, i started to lose my connection with my own culture & self identity as an Indigenous person. i also became very obsessed with wanting to be accepted by "city people" bc of how the culture is down here. back home, social media wasn't as big as it was down here and i never felt that need to be accepted thru social media and how i look or present myself like i did while living here. i completely agree that social media has really messed recent generations, and i was a victim to it. however, once i found a community of other Indigenous folk online who shared the same interests as me, while also trying to talk to my Inuit elders as much as i was able to; it felt like i was slowly healing. i still deal with depression and anxiety now, but at least i've become very grounded due to reconnecting with my culture and people while having a sense of community where i genuinely felt like i belonged. of course, i'm grateful to have met and connected with so many diverse groups of people while living down south, but connecting and sharing my experiences with other Indigenous folk and having the feeling that we relate and understand our unique experiences as Natives...it felt so relieving. on top of that, i started beading thanks to being able to reconnect with my culture which is one of the best things to have ever happen to me bc beading is something that has taken away so much stress that i used to deal with in very unhealthy ways. i feel like teenage mango wouldn't believe how much progress we've made so far and that's what motivates me to keep healing my inner self...
