"turns out I'm not fully cooked as a person" is just a good quote, but, is anyone really fully cooked?

[@dstrome]

Probably not a lot of fully cooked people, but definitely several who are fully baked. :)

[@annajams]

I think society expects us to be more or less "fully cooked" and basially figured out by 25 or something. But sometimes it doesn't work like that, and it's scary and stressful, but also natural and normal. I hope everyone gets the support they need, and take their time to cook :)

I heard this thing recently "you're living in the soup." Basically it's just a means to say that we try to view chunks of our life as these neat little things with beginnings and ends, little stories. Because it's helps us "learn a lesson" or move on to the next thing. But life is messy and complicated every day, every month, and every year. We're living in the soup. Always learning and being, and messing up and growing. I'm very excited about this project, and about navigating the messiness of the soup of life in your late 20s with you, with this project.

Whenever you make videos like these it really inspires me to work harder to self reflect. It’s not something I do often, maybe never at all to be honest. Perhaps because it’s a painful process but it’s a needed one. I have a terrible memory and terrible sense of self so perhaps documenting like you do may help me in some way. I don’t know, just thank you for sharing with us. It’s always appreciated that you feel comfortable enough to do so. Much love dodie, I hope February is better.

[@raspberrytaegi]

i agree and i like ur pfp ;)

[@SpirusOfH]

I've noticed that your recent videos have been incredibly well edited - I really think you have a knack for film-making that you can add to your already impressive roster! The juxtaposition of last New Year's countdown with the quiet intro (which is then contrasted with this New Year's countdown which I presume was filmed from covid-isolation); the moment where you look into the camera at 3:45 while reading a book called "how to relax"; the big close-up at 6:07 after so many mid-shots for probably the most vulnerable part of the video (and with the ambulance in the background, seamlessly ringing out even across jump-cuts). You're the queen of the hard cut! This genuinely felt like watching a short film. Great work. Very emotionally resonate!

This is exactly why I love dodie so much: finally a human being who is actually transparent and REAL on social media platforms. She is so relatable because she doesn't only show the "good" and the "pretty". It is SOOO refreshing and I believe all influencers of every kind should learn from her vulnerability and courage to share the REAL. Love you dodie! Thanks for being you.

same. my most played song of 2021 lol. hang in there buddy

[@buckl3y2417]

Honestly, some parts of me just immensely relate to this. Over the past few years, it's been really weird. I mean, I'm a teenager, it's supposed to be weird, but covid took a lot of things away from me. It took away the first ever friend I'd made who actually wanted to spend time with me, and we'd become friends because of ME. Not because it was some playdate with our parents, because of ME. When we went back she wasn't really the same. Honestly, over the past few years I've not been the same. My limbs feel heavy, I'm worrying about every single damn thing even more than I used to. It feels like the world is ending but everyone else is staring at the light display giggling and you want to laugh too but it comes out too high pitched and everyone blames you and then you realise that you're not even laughing, you're crying. It's been a hard time. But I am glad to say that Dodie has definitely helped me through. "Hate Myself" forced me to confront a lot of difficult feelings when nobody was willing to listen to me, "6/10" made me cry after weeks of suppressing my emotions, which is a truly liberating feeling. And "If I'm Being Honest" will never fail to make me feel... If not happy, it makes me feel something. Thank you Dodie. I hope you're OK.

[@Neje98]

Im 24 and i cant imagine how its been for every teenager and highschooler during these years. But i can promise that you will be able to make other real friends trought your life. Stay strong! Hopefully this pandemic is over soon and we are all in the same boat ❤

[@raspberrytaegi]

hey, hope this isn't weird to say, but i think u should consider writing (as a job or a hobby :]) if u haven't already, you seem extremely well-spoken. "everyone else is staring at the light display giggling and you want to laugh too but it comes out high pitched and everyone blames you and then you realize that you're not even laughing, you're crying" god that's so.....!!!!!!

[@anhbear4]

Love your metaphors as well! I'm sorry you're having a tough time, which is so understandable given the shit storm. It's been hard for me too even as a 27yr old and I concur, being in school during the pandemic seems incredibly hard. This might not be the most helpful to hear, but when you're in high school and college you think that life is high school and college. I felt like it was so important to get good grades, go to the best college, and get the best job. And I didn't take the time to enjoy it as much as I wish. I guess don't take it for granted and also it will get better and know you're not alone

[@maneskinnnnn7190]

[@googoogaga7986]

I turned 18 early this month, I lost all my remaining childhood to covid because it ruined my mental health and made my anxiety even more debilitating, I’m so rotten over it and I don’t think I’m going to enjoy life again, yknow?

[@nataliafoster1079]

Your ability to talk so openly about how life is not always the colourful stuff we see online makes me always feel so much more comforted in my own struggles. Just listening to you talk feels like chatting to a friend. These are always some of my favourite videos of yours

Oh my god *I NEED TO DO THIS TOO*. Things like this are right up my alley and doing this sort of "challenge" (not really, but you know what I mean) could motivate me to actually write music, not just think about it. I know the video ended on a quite somber note, but for what it's worth, you have the power to inspire.

[@mb-ss7be]

dodie, i remember being much younger and watching you talk about your life and feeling seen, finally understood. i understand now that it was unhealthy but it really had an impact on me when i was younger. i’m glad you can share your life in a healthier way now. things are hot messes and you show that not everything is perfect. there’s a sort of comfort in knowing someone else is out there struggling with those same things, going through life just like you. you only need to share what you feel comfortable with, but thank you for sharing what you have. 💗

the new year's 2019-2020 flashbacks gave me such visceral sadness - grief, even. i just watched a video of the countdown at my own party that night, it's so bittersweet.

[@LieutenantSheep]

The part of Dodie’s music that makes us all fuckin SOB is that we’re all around her age and she’s just as messy and human as we are. no one is fully cooked at this age. It’s so rough and messy and that’s life and your music not only helps you but brings beauty and catharsis to millions. So much love for you.

[@TheTobyrobot]

Those are some deep realisations, I'm really proud of you for the work and reflection you did to reach them. You say you wish someone had told you, but I'm not sure you would have been in the right mental state to confront that reality back then. There's a right time for everything and knowing now beats knowing 10 years from now. It's not trivial to face your inner demons like that, pat yourself on the back and be proud of where you've come!

This is probably just the liking you because I’m a fan of you talking, but I love hearing you talk about your life, like genuinely I do. I love being reminded that at 25 my whole life won’t be figured out. I love to look at you having fun with your friends and traveling and making beautiful art and sharing it with the world, while still having internal struggles you’re working through that deeply impact you. It’s good to be reminded that my life will constantly be a mix of loving where I am but also wishing things were different, and I for some reason find peace in that. I watch you online and wish so badly I was where you are right now and have to remind myself life will take me where it takes me in its own time. Anyways, blah blah blah poetic bs, I can’t wait to see you on tour in Nashville!!

[@maggieeire3964]

I forget where exactly I heard it, but I heard somewhere that mental illness (particularly depression) is a club that let's anyone join, but the only rule is that you have to believe you're the only one capable of feeling a certain way. No matter how many times I've reminded myself over the years that others feel just as deeply as I do, if not more, I always seem to find one of your videos (making pasta whilst drunk and sad sticks out in particular) just at the right time I am able to reflect and meditate on your experiences in relation to my own. We're both the same age, but we've lead incredibly different lives - but also do similar things like pushing away, or isolating, or just that soundproof ceiling of a new experience that just doesn't feel quite right. I have no idea why I'm saying any of this, because saying that you're not alone to someone who is feeling alone and ashamed of everything they have and have not done is about as effective as pissing in the wind. But even so, you're not alone. I am eternally grateful that even though we will likely never meet, that you've been able to be vulnerable about the human experience in a way that makes sense to me. So. Thank you.

Cool girl is my favorite song. Like. I know the context of why you wrote it and what it means to are definitely very different, but how it’s helped me is unmeasurable

[@jmagiera]

Thank you, dodie, that was so heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. I'm 20 years older than you, and I wish I had the freedom to publicly be a "hot mess" and have people sympathize (or smile benevolently) and empathize. Just the thought of doing something remotely similar to this video makes me aware of how many layers of pretense I would have to peel off. I know you also feel societal pressure to be "mature" (settled, sober, whatever), but, unfortunately, it doesn't get less. Please ensure you cultivate the niches in which you can be a mess without shame (it probably won't be as public). See you in 20 years!

In a super non pushy way, I missed hearing from you. I was glad you weren’t here all the time because I’m content with knowing you’re living your life and not spending it documenting what is passing by all the time. But being able to see what you create and how you do it and being aware of how reassuring it feels to know you’re sharing this with us.. it’s really nice. You’re really nice. No person is fully cooked and living life is realizing that we’ve outgrown a lot of unhealthy patterns. The only thing important for us humans, sooner or later, is to find those things and work on them. That’s already a lot. I hope Febuary treats you better.

[@twinkincarnate]

thank you for making this dodie, thank you so much. i’ve been going through my first serious heartbreak, and i have been an unstable, barely functional mess, and it’s just nice seeing you express your emotions freely. i feel like i shouldn’t still be crying over a boy nearly 2 months after the fact, despite already suffering from severe anxiety and depression. it has pulled me into a deep dark hole. i have cried every single day since early december - pretty much all i do lately is just feel, cry, long, heal, and try to get through my days, hours really. this has been the most turbulent and dark past few months of my life in my nearly 22 years of life, and what i’m trying to say is: while it’s horrible that we’re all feeling low as a collective it seems, it’s good to know i’m not alone. the “acceptance” paper in your shower and the conveniently placed “grief” graffiti on the wall in LA really encapsulates my life currently. just a tug of war of missing someone who no longer wants you in their life but also wanting to and knowing you need to move on and get on with your life. i don’t really have many people to talk to lately, most of my close friends are busy working their adult jobs and living their lives with their partners/families, and i guess i just feel extra isolated. the world is really weird right now, but i do have hope. even if that hope dwindles from time to time, even when i’m having my 5th daily breakdown, that sliver of hope that maybe, just maybe one day, hopefully soon, things will be alright and i will be able to truly enjoy life again without this nagging feeling of darkness that permeates my subconscious on a day to day basis. i’ve been watching you since 2012 and boy what a journey this has been. a whole decade !! even though you don’t know me, i love and adore you and am so proud of you. good luck on tour, you got this dodie!! i believe in you, much love xx ❤️☀️🌈✨

it's been a rough january, you are not alone, love. as a newly 40 yr old, i would like u to know that even i am not fully cooked. it's always just learning learning learning, and sometimes it's v cool bc you're like "oooooo i get it now!" but sometimes it still hurts bc ...life. anyway, i can't wait to dance and cry with you in atlanta soon! happy cooking, lil duck. xx

[@SymphonySinger]

I really like the reflecting I'm seeing here. Hearing dodie in self-reflection mode really helps remind me of how important that is. I usually do my self-reflecting when I go on my long walks. I've always found that it is just as important to focus on the good as it is the bad. Not every day or month will be wonderful, but we hope for a better tomorrow and we do whatever we can to make it happen. If it doesn't work out, that is okay. Tomorrow is another day. It reminds me of a picture I once saw. It was a person under an umbrella in the rain, while a duck was playfully splashing in the puddles next to him, enjoying itself. The caption was, "Every day may not be good, but there is something good in every day". That helps me on my bad days. "Turns out I may not be fully cooked" may very well be a mood. And I think that is alright too! I think everyone is a bit raw, and I think that it might be necessary. Life sure would be boring if we were all perfect and 'fully cooked'. Life is about building who you are. Revel in the imperfections of who you are and enjoy the people who love you as you are as you continue to strive to improve yourself. Much love to everyone out there, and to you too dodie! And dodie, we'll always have your back when you need us! :)

[@maggieo1683]

Honestly, I love these types of videos. Not because you're feeling sad, but because you're not being fake about it. I respect honest conversations about mental health and random ugly bits of crying because it's not trying to look happy and perfect all the time. Because life isn't always happy and it's never perfect. Thank you for making this video dodie. You don't have to tell us everything about your personal life, but when you feel like you can, I bet I speak for a lot of people when I say I appreciate the raw and real parts of your channel just as much as your goofy and random bits.

I love that the perosnal vlogs are back! I also like how you respect your boundaries and don't share all the details online. It's a beautiful balance between being vulnerable and honest, yet keeping your life private. Hope the following months are better for you! Take care!

new years was awful because it was the end of the best year of my life. i sat alone on a couch and sat unable to cry because it was just so beautiful. and i would do anything to not move on. i felt like my peak. i understand time is a concept and nothing really changed but i already got sick twice in 2022 and my life is changing immensely. .....happy not new years babes lol

While i really respect you for figuring out what you do and don't want to share online (and you should always keep doing this!), I'm honestly so happy to see this side of you again. I've personally not been doing great mentally and have really struggled to express this to other people, but the way you describe it truly makes me feel less alone and a lot more heard, so thank you so much for that

Still pretty devastated I won't be able to see you in Montreal, but I'm so glad I'll still get to catch up with you and your life through this project! I support you Dodie, and it's been such a meaningful experience to watch you grow as a person and as an artist for so many years, particularly because I was growing along with you, relating constantly to how you felt through your music and your videos. Love you very much, and I wish you only good things
