Sadness got the better of me | VAN LIFE VLOG

[@jakekiddle6659]

Keep doing what you love. I'm going to be in my van June time. What you do brings value to people's lives. I would love you to edit my videos for my van life. U have a gift 🎁

[@Nomadickangoo]

Aww dude thank you, that's really nice to hear 💪🏻😊

[@airbornerat]

‘Before I go full Buddha’… 😄…. Slowly catching up with your great uploads…😎

[@lufc76]

From London to St Albans and you feel paranoid of the outside... lol

[@peakyparttimers9362]

Nice seeing you Mucka, your right about being yourself its the only way! Some youtubers try so hard to act to get big subscribers but its so false! And as for being sad its just down to the time of year. All best see you soon.🤞🤞👍

[@spooktasticaparanormal]

I totally get you dear friend, I have suffered from depression from early childhood and have lived through some really horrible experiences in this life. I'm now 55 years of age and on medication to help address the imbalance that I have in my brain. I cannot produce the right amounts of seratonin because that part of my brain does'nt function properly. However my medication helps keep me stablised. Keep smiling buddie. Kind regards. Paul.

[@cosworthization]

That was so funny what you said about 8 beers, tucking into a bargain bucket and washing yourself with the lemon wipes because you can't be bothered washing. I love watching your videos.

[@MileBoots]

Sometime there is just no explanation why you feel down. In the same set of circumstances you can feel fine. Writing thoughts down can help put things in perspective.

[@Nomadickangoo]

So true mate, it's amazing seeing so many others come forward and open up about this.

[@SandVan]

Good video rather enjoyable 😀

[@michelehopwood1689]

Just found your channel, I'm moving into my van in July because I can't afford to stay in my house, I've been watching lots of Bob Wells , of course, he's American, so some of his things don't apply to UK vanlife. It's good to see the reality, it's not all beachside and perfect. I know I've got to keep working when I leave so it's reassuring to see it can be done. I have to make this work. Thanks for your honesty.

[@Nomadickangoo]

Hey Michele, thanks for the comment, good luck with your van, I hope it all works out for you. 💪🏻

[@steven42000ful]

Nice to see you back mate

[@jayookay4475]

I like to see the reality of what you do .. The good and bad stuff.. Glad your mojo is back..

[@catvando3209]

Nice to see you're enjoying your new job. I think winter time gets everybody at some point. I am heading south this Thursday to get to Shaftesbury for Friday at the turnpike showground for the weekend. It's a long drive down for me from up in the North. Have fun👍😊

[@peterjackson7426]

Great video and you are so right 👍😊❤️ keep safe

[@matthewpreston7761]

Wishing you well. Enjoying the videos.

[@lifewiththelightlys2119]

Well done you. Haven't watched too many of your videos but have noticed you through the SocksandSandels channel. I am old and through experience I know that we ALL go through rough patches in our lives. You are doing so well to be dealing with it in the way that you are. Keep it up, things will always turn out for the best ❤😁 xx

[@stebishopnomad1838]

Nice to see you back matey.

[@georginaK21]

It's kind of normal to feel like that this time of year. The lack of sunlight can affect you. They call is Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D). You even mentioned sleep trouble at the start of your video which is one of the symptoms. Just keep yourself busy and wait it out till summer. Stay safe!

[@Nomadickangoo]

Yah I think it's a cocktail of weather, lack of sleep and just general day to day stuff 💪🏻 thanks for watching mate

[@jodiethackway4588]

This is an awesome vid! Love your honesty and you still manage to keep it hilarious! Don’t give up your doing a great job entertaining us all thank you! 😃

[@regmix7314]

Good too see you on here again. Nice catch up. Take care dude

[@paulhollens1519]

Great to see you back! take care Jen and Paul x

[@paulmcd9228]

Love your videos need more daily videos please ☺️

[@Nomadickangoo]

I struggle with weekly 🤣

[@jonclements5229]

Great content mate.. keep doing what you’re doing!

[@noseygits4354]

Mmm lemony fresh 🤣. Everyone needs a good moan every now and then it's better to express it than to bottle it up or just to shut the world out relax and reset the mind bring yourself back to you so to speak. Glad you are feeling better again!

[@Nomadickangoo]

🤣🤣 smelled good. Yah you are right, just needed a verbal unload

[@noseygits4354]

Saves on body spray! 🤣. The good thing about having a KZbin channel there is always people that will lend an ear and maybe been in that situation and can help out a bit even if it's just a chat with a stranger it helps sometimes glad you are feeling better and thank you for the content it is really enjoyable and shows me what sort of things I will be facing once I'm back in work and get a van 🤣.. waiting on hip surgery so not out of work by choice but it has shown me I can't afford to have a house and not work so I have to get a van to clear my debts now if I don't move into a van I will never get out of this debt 🤣 but.. gotta laugh about it! And be hopeful positive thinking and eventually you will get to where you want to be it just takes a bit of time and grafting

[@Skizm6666]

I feel ya man. Keep your chin up

[@Nomadickangoo]

You to buddy 💪🏻

[@Sue.242]

What i like about your vlogs is you keep life real. We all have ups and downs that is life. Mental health is a constant battle. As a sufferer I’m with you and its good to share, that’s the first steps. Your not alone 2nd step. Well done xx

[@Nomadickangoo]

Thanks Sue, that's a great compliment for my channel 🙂 and I'm glad others can relate

[@mikienicktravelforpassion5240]

We wait for you to post every week , you're a great guy , sorry to hear times were a bit rough , take care my man ❤️

[@Nomadickangoo]

Thank you so much!! That's so nice to say x

[@gc5384]

Your a good man mate I get low to at times with depression and anxiety .. and the meds for pain I get and mental health give me no motivation sometimes I love the van idea just park up some where and chill with a 12 volt tv

[@Nomadickangoo]

I hope you can over come your depression. It can be a bitch, especially in these times. Stay strong 💪🏻

[@thefarm5818]

Happy days mate keep your chin up good to hear your enjoying your new job 👍🏻

[@Nomadickangoo]

Thanks buddy 💪🏻

[@zafiracamper]

It’s really healthy to be able to talk about your mental health and actually I think that’s what people who experience it would find beneficial - someone else talking about how they may be feeling too and being able to understand and relate (was a mental health social worker for years and years)

[@Nomadickangoo]

Wow that's a great job, you must of helped alot of people 💪🏻

[@zafiracamper]

@@Nomadickangoo within all my time in social services I think I can happily say yes to that for quite a few people. In my more recent roles even saved two peoples lives 🙏 Defo super proud of those career moments 👍🏻Oh and I totally am the same as you - a hobby grade tuber :)

[@JUPPY]

Top video once again mate, it can be tough getting lost in your own thoughts from time to time but everything hopefully is on the up now 👍🏻

[@Nomadickangoo]

Thanks Juppy I appreciate that. Just subbed 💪🏻

[@JUPPY]

@@Nomadickangoo Cheers dude I appreciate it 🙏🏻

[@roryconroy3701]

Hey man, your no toe rag, or anything of the sort, don't be so hard on yourself. Your vids are creative and interesting, summers on the way with lots of adventure in store for you try to stay positive, 👍❤️

[@Nomadickangoo]

Thank you for your kind words! Yes bring on the summer!!!

[@rickydavison6894]

Why don't you work as a courier ? I live out of my van through the week and get all over the country ..

[@Nomadickangoo]

Sounds great but I have a well paid job in design already. Could always be a back up idea

[@rickydavison6894]

@@Nomadickangoo . Worth thinking about . Also , take a look at installing a Chinese Diesel Heater for the winter months

[@rickydavison6894]

Or buy a fucking camper van !! 😂

[@SocksWithSandals]

Februarys used to get me every year until I discovered tropical winter breaks and snowboarding seasons. The last two years my seasonal depression has returned. Old Chinese proverb say: "if you want to know joy you must know sorrow, if you want to have a rainbow you must have rain". Treat being depressed as "deep rest". Drop everything excess and enjoy the eight-pack of Stella and KFC bucket as you wipe down with lemon scent. I laughed so hard when you said that.

[@timsuttonlovinlife-]

Not to be to personal but are you still on or were you on a high dosage of medication for your operation? (i.e painkillers) it could be that why you’re feeling down mate, you might think I’m talking out my arse but when I was on them they played havoc with my emotions for months! especially when I stopped taking them, just a thought 👍

[@Nomadickangoo]

No I was off medication for the pain a while ago. But that's a good point tho. I'm going to blame the weather 🤣

[@MyFriendlyPup]

We love you. Real knows real. If you aren't depressed in the great reset you are a fool.

[@Nomadickangoo]

You know it!

[@BewleyBooks]

Toe rag? You're a decent chap. K

[@rexgeorg7324]

more rants pls

[@mmwaashumslowww7167]

There is a huge advantage especially now, to living in your van. No rising heating and power costs, council tax and not having a place somewhere busy to be near a job. More money in you pocket and you're still quids in, even having to pay more for fuel. One more advantage that you know well, STEALTH. Noisy farkers?.... turn the key and move on. Don't you just luvit 👍

[@Nomadickangoo]

Very true sir. Life's not all to bad when you put it that way 🙂
