THERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT ME | BRITTANI BOREN LEACH

[@janicebarkmann]

I just watched you on KZbin on my TV now I am on my computer and can't find the same episode that I watched. You were talking about the stuff you got at the store for the resting place for your baby. I just want to jump into the computer and give you a hug. The fact that anybody thinks they know what you should or should not be doing is crazy to me. You do you and be there as best you can honey, I have three girls and no grandkids yet but no parent should have to outlive their child. Be real be you and do the best you can. What else can anybody ask of you? Big prayers and hugs honey. XX

[@oliviabarton8244]

I’m almost positive I have ocd as well. It’s nice to hear that someone else knows what it is (that it’s not just cleaning and stuff)

[@jeanieturner875]

Britain I am so much like you. I have anxiety and I am a over thinker . I am a person that wants everything done right now. Thanks for sharing.

[@maddisonlecheminant7060]

And another thing never be ashamed of having to be on antidepressant and anxiety medication. I've been on it for so many years I suffer from PTSD I've had OCD my whole life I checked the locks constantly constantly washing my hands and it's horrible to have panic attacks and to have those old CDs and those feelings but I've never been a person who is never been affectionate I've always been very loving and very attentive I mean I don't like someone constantly touchy-feely me I'm above what I'm sect but I basically like to be left alone I don't deal with pain very well. So there's a lot of things that I need to change in my life and work on and try and I procrastinate I'm one of the biggest procrastinator there is and you know what I never get it done and I need to work on that so much but sometimes it's nice to have a hug but to be constantly touchy-feely no I don't like that but it's nice to be told that you're beautiful and that your love and your special because you really are you're an amazing person. And it was very sad the way I found your Channel by losing your son. But I think eventually one of your videos would have popped up and I would have joined but I'm glad that I get to watch videos and learn more about you and your beautiful family. Thank you so much for sharing your life oh my God I'm so sorry there are no words you can really say all you can do is pray for that person I lost my fiance 8 years ago with 41 he committed suicide and I found him dead and that's something I'll never forget or never get over you never get over losing someone you love but you have to remember that God needed them so we have to believe that he dead up for all the right reasons as hard and sad as that is that they're a piece and they're happy and I believe there's a reason for everything God has a plan for all of us we may not like it and it's so hard when you lose someone you love so very very much but as time goes on it gets a little bit easier it's something you never forget But as time goes on it does get easier so now I don't think you're crazy I think you're amazing God bless :-) and I'm not sure that you are getting these messages or not but I really hope you are always keep your faith a strong and stay positive and everything will be okay God bless xoxo

[@mandim.1988]

I understand why you have your comments turned off on newest videos but I just wanted to say your new edition to your family is absolutely adorable. Congratulations to you ! I don't have any social media so this is the only way I can tell you .

[@taylorgolddigger2643]

Britt, I have a 6 month old girl. I have struggled with diagnosed anxiety my whole life and ever since I’ve had my baby girl I have been dealing with depression. I know it’s probably hormones but it’s awful. I have a horrible fear of losing my loved ones. My husband turned on a love song and started slow dancing with me last night to be sweet and I couldn’t help but Ball my eyes out just thinking this is sweet but if I loose him I will look back on this. Like ugh whyyy!

[@taylorgolddigger2643]

And we have the same toes omg

[@cathyuhl764]

Thanks so much for your raw honesty!!! You probably have helped so many people letting them know they are not alone with their struggles.

[@olgabreedlove]

Thank you so much for opening up & sharing that you are on meds - I know it’s personal but it will help a lot of people feel less alone. A few months ago I was prescribed anti anxiety meds but I never ended up taking them because I was scared & because didn’t know anyone else on them that I could relate/talk to about it. Luckily I don’t need them anymore now that I left my terrible job but it’s nice to know that someone has a positive experience with them in case I need them in the future 💕

[@jessicapennekamp7061]

i did the same exact things. Still struggle. You're not alone.

[@brendatate8986]

OMG! We are a lot alike! I have anxiety and have for a long time. OCD been there! Thanks for sharing and getting people to talk about anxiety. You are a precious lady! Nothing boring about you!

[@echozelaya1804]

I quit my job in labor and delivery a year ago and it honestly felt like the greatest thing and biggest relief ever so I know exactly what you mean. The job was draining me so bad and I dont regret leaving it at all even though it was my passion. Since I've started watching you a few months ago, you've truly inspired me. Since becoming a SAHM, I would feel like I was "losing myself" until I started seeing all of the things you do by yourself that other people would say "why dont you wait for your husband to do it?" After seeing your new shelves in your kitchen, I went to Home Depot and got everything to build shelves in my bathroom and it gave me that sense of pride and self worth that I felt I was missing.

[@mistyrosemarie]

I am also an RN and I thought L&D would be my dream job....I decided in the first 6 weeks of orientation that it was not for me and I went running back to the ER!

[@echozelaya1804]

@@mistyrosemarie I NEVER wanted to work in L&D. I wanted Telemetry, but once I got the L&D job, I absolutely loved it. I'm a CNA and cross trained to be a surgical tech to assist in c-sections and had my "this is is. This is where I want to be" moment then.

[@cwhitworth82]

I have anxiety too. I lost my mom in 2006 and always had this feeling I would lose her. She had kidney disease from a little girl and I was the only baby that survived out of 4 pregnancies for her. I miss her so much. I put myself through nursing school while working full time in a psych dept. I work for a major insurance company in psych and have my RN but I wasn't fond of the hospital politics. I get asked all the time about it. If there are large crowds, it puts me on edge. I partied a few times when I was young and not really my thing. I love shopping but yes...Saturday makes me cringe. Lol. I love your videos. I have learned waiting for hubs ro do something around the house is frustrating. This is why I am painting all our trim and baseboards white 😊

[@ashleyegan6257]

I never knew that you could have pregnancy depression until my last pregnancy and I didn’t even realize that that’s what was going on until after and I didn’t realize how bad it was until after. You always hear about postpartum depression but no one ever talks about during pregnancy! Thank you for your openness and honesty!❤️

[@allisongosline6378]

You should try Sea-Bands! They are bands you put on your wrist that sent signals to your bain to stop motion sickness. I love them and they really help my car sickness.

[@joy-115]

What kind of back surgery did you have? I have a lot of back problems 😞

[@HomemakingWithFarrah]

I don’t blame you for handing over the keys... I would’ve done the same thing! Hasta la vista!👋🏻👋🏻

[@amandabkayb]

Thanks for sharing about your story about OCD, depression and anxiety. I also struggle with OCD and anxiety. It is a breath of fresh air to see wonderful KZbinrs share their stories and relate to.

[@christy52612]

Just realized I've never watched this video. I love it! I learned more about you. You are so awesome thank you for your tips you are always so open and down to earth wish I could meet you in person! Congratulations on the new baby ❤

[@BrittanysBeautifulChaos]

No judgement here...I take Wellbutrin for depression and I take Gabapentin for anxiety. It helps me be a better mom! And I have zero shame. Much love to you & thank you for sharing!

[@shellymcdonough6876]

I am also on depression medication and it has changed my life!! There should never ever be shame in helping yourself!

[@joy-115]

Me too! ❤️

[@emilychampion4700]

This is seriously one of your best videos. Thanks so much for opening up - you're a beautiful soul! My mom bought be this electric shaver (it was impossible to cut yourself with it) that could be used without water when i was in grade school. I'm not sure on the year, but it was definitely under 10. I hated the hair on my legs and i was so relieve when my mom got me that.

[@lindadamonte4346]

You are so adorable!! I don't like crowds or shopping on weekends either so your not alone!!❤❤❤

[@kaileymerriman]

I respect you SO SO much for opening up about your depression. 💛 I never experienced PPD with my daughter but I just had my son in May and it hit me like a ton of bricks & I too am on anxiety & depression meds. Also got diagnosed with PTSD after my sons birth because I delivered him breech with no pain medication, and it was very traumatic. Thank you for making me feel a LITTLE normal by opening up. ♥️

[@briannaf2648]

The anxiety, depression, being a procrastinator and over thinking is all me as well! 🤦🏼‍♀️ I always enjoy your videos. You’re such a good mom. ❤️

[@joanneolds8746]

Thank you Brittani for being so candid about anxiety and medication. I too suffered during pregnancy and was started on zoloft and still take it. I am a MUCH better mother for it. You are awesome and I love your videos!!💖💖💖

[@heather_nicole_05]

Props to you for walking out on your job because they were forcing you to work somewhere that is potentially unsafe for you and your baby. Not many people are willing to do that or realize they have the option to walk away. I feel like I am 85% similar to you; I get anxiety, car sick (I ALWAYS have to drive), I'm not affectionate (I think my whole family was just like that), I'm an introvert, I'm not sure about my love language, but I have read the book and I love those kinds of things that help you figure out more about yourself.

[@martha7811]

You truly help people with your authenticity and genuineness. Thank you for sharing your truth (boy mom also ).

[@TheMomo19903]

I’m so happy to hear you share about you going and seeking help for your anxiety/depression. I suffered horribly from PPD/A after I had my first baby 5 years ago! I’m so stubborn that I felt like I would get over it, I had to do it on my own, I shouldn’t be feeling this way etc. I still suffer, some days worse than others but this made me realize it’s ok and I don’t have to feel this way. I think I’m ready to go talk to someone about my issue. I want to enjoy life!!!! Thank you so much for opening up❤️

[@meo158]

Love your videos

[@The28thfish]

Brittani, you are in my thoughts on a daily basis over the unimaginable loss that you are experiencing.

[@catlady3147]

She's doing fine. She raked in 120K from the GoFundMe. She's raking it in with the Crew's Crew t-shirts and bracelets and lets her kids ride their scooters w/o helmets. Her house is really clean too. And her makeup. Damn. Her makeup and extensions look pristine. Brittani is doing just fine.

[@catlady3147]

@@The28thfish no. She's a disgusting human being. How about she get off social media? Nope. Can't do it. Addicted. She's too busy shopping at Target. Disgusting.

[@The28thfish]

Dee wow, you’re super brave hiding behind your nickname and screen over there. I wonder if you would be this brave in person too.

[@catlady3147]

@@The28thfish absolutely. She's a narcissist. I would tell her to her face. She's not grieving. No mother, who has lost a child, would not be able to get on IG 2 wks after their child passed. I know several moms who have lost kids. She is raking it in with the money from GFM and the t-shirts, bracelets. She has yet to say how her baby died. She can't stay away from social media to save her life. Lets her kids ride their scooters w/o helmets. Brilliant. Go talk to a mother who has lost a child and is truly grieving and not putting new floors in and posting it on IG.

[@gracefullyrose]

I was 9 when I started shaving my legs with an electric razor. My daughter is 8 and started shaving about 6 months ago with an electric as well. My grandmother is giving me a lot of grief about it, but she was uncomfortable because a similar statement was made to her that was made to you.

If you hate the post office, you need to schedule a pickup! Usps does it for free, especially when I sell online there is NO WAY I'm hauling my kids with me.

[@leslieheavingham8986]

There are good ones, but you have a busy life and being an over thinker (*me,too) you will start comparing etc. Don't spend your precious life on their videos..you just enjoy your hubby and kiddos! And know that YOU ARE ENOUGH..exactly as you are! Have a beautiful day..and thx for sharing💕

[@kerenparnell632]

I've had OCD (not diagnosed by a doc) most of my life, but like you, it has gotten better over the past several years as an adult. I'm 35 yrs old. I also started shaving my legs just out of 4th grade and started my period 2 wks later. Lol.

[@jenniferfriddle7155]

I started shaving my legs when I was 11 almost 12 , because my older cousin Stephanie was up for Spring break and she already shaved hers , so I wanted to be like her !!!

[@jenniferfriddle7155]

I am right there with you Brittani , I get anxiety so bad when I go into crowbs that it causes my blood sugar to bottom out !!!! So I try and go into Walmart and stuff more at nite bc less people but also I have rheumatoid arthritis so bad that I have to take monthly Iv treatments and it's causing my immune system to be down so I can't be around alot of others .

[@jessical2962]

Thank you so much for being so open about your anxiety and depression. I began taking Lexapro at 19 for depression and took it for several years. I was able to get off of it for a few years, but after having my little girl I ended up back on it by 6 weeks postpartum for depression and anxiety. I'm still on it over 3 years later and even had to increase the dose recently. If you don't mind answering I'm wondering if being on Zoloft affected any of your children after they were born. I haven't had another child yet because my doctor told me I'd need to get off by the third trimester and if not it wouldn't harm the baby, but they could have mild withdrawal symptoms after being born.

[@kathyspringer1424]

I love your transparency. And your home is beautiful.

[@tawandatalford5519]

So many hugs on the car sickness issue! I don't struggle with it but my husband does and 2 of my 4 kids also struggle with it. And I was the same was as a kid but my parents just told me I was weird. We're so much a like with a lot of the points you touched on today. I had really horrible post partum depression after my second son was born and I also needed medication to help my depression while I was pregnant with my 4th baby. I've also had depression since I was a teen so I relate so much to that. You're a bit younger than me but I relate to you so much. I've just recently started watching your videos and I wanted to say I appreciate you and your videos! P.S. I wasn't allowed to shave until I was in 6th grade but I wanted to shave way before then for the same reason as you! Haha! Although the boy was my brother! 😂

[@tiarraswsher3930]

Hello ma'am, Motionease from walmart is AMAZING. My mom gave it to my niece and called it "grandma's magic potion" maybe you can call it mommy's magic potion. It is just oil you put behind your ears. It takes 2 to 3 coats for me but it helps to much. Hope this helps

Hi Britney I'm not sure if you will even get this message I am new to your Channel. I've been watching I'm trying to catch up on all of your videos and I wanted to know I really enjoyed them very much. I am so very very sorry that. You lost your baby boy. That's actually how I found your Channel cuz I was watching another video and I was reading through the comments and some lady had brought up your name and mentioned your loss and was asking for everyone to pray for you and your family so instantly I clicked over to your Channel. She tell you how very very sorry I am that you lost your baby boy. And you haven't posted a video in quite a while and I can understand why. But I really miss your videos and I hope someday you will start making videos again and sharing your life I really appreciate all of your videos and love them and I always give you a thumbs up. So I'm hoping that you will return when you feel like you are ready take as much time as you need. My niece lost her baby girl at 3 weeks old he aspirated on her throw up and then six years later she had another baby girl after she lost her first and now my sweet little cousin she is 3 years old now and a complete handful bouncing off the walls but she is so cute and such a blessing. And I know how scared she was to even get pregnant again after she lost her baby she was so scared to do it again because what might happen but she did ended up getting another wonderful beautiful amazing little girl who made bounce off the walls but she's just the cutest personality. So I will finish watching all of the rest of your videos that I missed out on. Until you are ready to make more videos and are ready to post again. So I really hope you come back I know how hard this has been for your family I like I said take all the time you need. I will keep you in my prayers and you have such a beautiful family and such cute kids. I have five beautiful grandchildren 4 boys and 1 Girl and I love my granddaughter at my little boys are so awesome and so cute I would not trade having little boys to have a girl because little boys may be hyper when they're little but when they get older they're usually more mellow and easier than girls I had a boy and two girls and my girls were way harder but I hope someday you do get a baby girl cuz I think every woman out there should get a baby girl or a doll that's always a very special thing to do to if given the opportunity. You never know what God's plan is or what he has in store for our futures but I hope your family is doing good God bless :-) and you are one of the sweetest most nicest people just the way you talk and the way you do things and explain things you're just amazing you're a really good mom and such a great person with an amazing heart :-)

[@mycuprunnethover8062]

I’m not very affectionate either. It’s nice to Know other women are like that too. My husbands love language is also touch 😂 it’s definitely a struggle. With family and my kid. I used to have weird OCD tendencies too. Not as much now. I have always felt pretty anxious, I have super bad social anxiety still sometimes. I hate it.

[@mindyl5990]

We are similar in many ways, except for the beach. I like hearing the waves and walking on the beach. But I don’t wear a bikini or swimsuit at all and I do not sunbathe or such. I had OCD too. I had 1 stuffed animal though and I pretended it was my baby. I carried her on my hip like I seen a lot of moms doing. Then one day my mom got rid of it and I freaked out I had a messy room. It did get cleaned from time to time, but I had the urge to deep clean every single thing so it took forever (by everything I mean I stored things in a plastic drawer thing and I stuck the entire thing in the bathtub and washed with soap. Picky picky picky. (Not as bad now, but I am still picky). One day we went to doctor. My mom told me it was to get a vaccine shit checked it to make sure it was okay....but it was really bcs of my OCD.

[@abiering]

I’m on anxiety meds too. It’s so much better being on it. There’s not the stigma to it like there used to be. Thanks for sharing. Hope it helps others too!

[@mistyrosemarie]

I suffer from severe anxiety. I have always been OCD. I can not stand going in areas with crowds of people. (Walmart is one of the worst places) I use essential oils to control my anxiety, but I do have anxiety medication PRN....just in case. I started shaving my legs in the 5th grade. My love languages are acts of service, and receiving gifts, (not big expensive gifts) just nice little thoughtful things, a note or a picked flower. I absolutely love being at the beach!!

[@kimberlyann4547]

Omg I had the same issue with OCD when I was younger. I had to had my stuffy animals in a certain place on my shelf or bed. I had to do things a certain amount of times or I thought something bad would happen to myself or family member. It was horrible living like that. Anxiety and depression came with that too. I’m sorry you also went thru that. You’re a wonderful person and are an amazing mom. Love your videos.

[@lindapearson8137]

Were you not hugged as a child. I don’t remember getting hugged until I was thirteen from my mom and it felt so uncomfortable! I only became a hugger when I went to a church that hugged ! I wish I had hugged my kids more. Shaved my legs in junior high. I was a slow at those kind of things. My mom never talked to me about any of those kinds of things! If I had mentioned it, like you did to your mom, she would have ridiculed.

I take Zoloft too. We have so much in common actually. I overthink everything and have crazy irrational thoughts if I’m super stressed or anxious. I’m also an introvert. And I also would get extremely anxious as a child when my mother went somewhere without me because I thought she might die..?!? Annndddd I started shaving my legs in the 4th grade too 😂 But seriously... post partum was no joke for me. Never feel ashamed for getting help. I’ve come to accept that I am the best version of myself on Zoloft and that’s okay 👍🏻🙂 Thanks for sharing with us!

Brittani, you are not alone in this world. My daughter has the same toe deal as you...even the same feet! It makes her feel better knowing she isn’t alone lol I too am not an affectionate person. I love my kids and husband to DeaTH but I just don’t express it in a touchy way. I do hug them and when they want to hold my hand (they’re teens now but still love to hold my hand) I will hold their hand or have the arm lock. I’m a SAHM and military wife and only have one friend (honestly) because I can’t trust people. I’m extremely observant of people and keep my distance. If someone tries to make friends with me, I won’t talk much or I will just try to get away for the situation. I LOVE shopping alone but I love to show my finds to my mother via hangouts lol. Thanks for sharing you. It just proves I’m not the only person who feels the way I do in some ways. ❤️

I was in sixth grade when I started shaving! I remember my mom telling me I was too young to be shaving my legs, but most of my friends had been shaving for a year or two at that point, and I was one of the only ones who wasn’t so I was sooo embarrassed. There was a group of girls who had made a comment about it to me, so one night I broke down to my mom and she let me.

[@cathleenweaver6483]

Hi Brittani, flat rate bags and boxes are free from post office. You can go to usps.com and print labels for them. And the post office will deliver the bags and boxes and pick them up. It's all explained on usps.com. Just a thought ❤💚💜💙💛 About shaving, I was raised Catholic in the 50s and 60s; born again Christian now. My parents were very strict and I couldn't shave until I think about 7th grade. I am Italian with very dark hair, so it was horrible. And in those days we couldn't wear pants to school, ever. So here I am wearing dresses and/or skirts and very hairy legs. Same thing with me, crying that somebody teased me and my Mom let me shave.

[@BrittanysBeautifulChaos]

I was almost 13 when I started shaving my legs. My daughter will be 11 next month and she just asked me this week! She has dark hair and lots of it so I agreed to teach her... but I'm nervous!

Thank you for being so transparent and real with your viewers. You’re an amazing person and the best mom. I love this video. Also, same story for me as far as shaving legs. A boy sitting next to me in 6th grade, told me something similar. I was mortified lol and started shaving since then.

I myself am on depression meds I honestly hate being in big crowds, I’ve also tripped over my own two feet at a dinner my former school puts on every year and all I was worried about was my pasta, I also feel the same way about the beach, I use to like it when I was younger now I don’t really care for it.

Holy cow , we have so much in common . Even from the stories you shared as a little girl with anxiety and OCD. I knew I was drawn to your videos for a reason. You are so relatable because it's like we are the same person 😂

[@blushingwithliz9896]

Girl I am not affectionate either... much to my husband's (and mother's) dismay. I do not do feelings and hugging makes me uncomfortable. lol You are not alone there. TYPE A!!!!

[@heathersmithson3782]

I have the same love language as you and Hubby’s is touch and words of affirmation which makes it difficult for me. I’ve never actually read the book, but we both took the online test years ago.

[@therayfamily8244]

Girllll!!! We literally could be beat friends. I hate crowds I avoid anything and everything on Saturdays 😂😂 I hate change it gives me super bad anxiety. I reminded this yo let my husband listen and he goes holy cow y'all just alike 😂😂 love love your videos!!

[@tinawest2405]

I have met a lot of people in my life so far and I cannot say how much more we are alike... I used to line up shampoos and stuff at the store. I’d push things on the shelf back cause it may have been on the edge and I didn’t want it to fall. I had magic nursery dolls (4) cause I wanted to be a mom so bad and I lined them up on my pillows after I made the bed and would wave at them. Hate big crowds and parties was never big on them. Still aren’t! Had a small group of friends growing up and I mean like 2 friends I’d talk to cause I guess I was anti social and didn’t know, I was ocd or had anxiety at that age. I now have epilepsy and anxiety and take meds for both. Under went thyroid removal surgery for cancer about 3 years ago now and are cancer free (yay)!! Have a scar from that and I fell off the couch at 3/4 and have a scar on my head from hitting the coffee table and splitting it. Trust-touchy subject... let’s just say it’s earned not given. I always think people will bail or not come through or will lie!! Gosh, SO many more things, but I already wrote a book. lol! Haha!! Love, that I can chat with you and relate. I too am bored easily and need to be busy. Think it’s a part of OCD!!! Thanks, for sharing! I knew I liked you from back when you started. Like sisters from different misters... 😂

[@NotJustMommyTime]

I loved getting to know you better. I think I want to do a video like this too. I'm an over thinker as well. I'm an introvert as well, I hate being in crowds especially when I'm pregnant. I always feel like someone is going to hit me in the belly.

[@jenm4642]

You are amazing. Honestly... Lexapro will help

[@sweepcaroline8447]

What is with these mean boys calling girls hairy?! Same thing happened to me in the 6th grade but my mom still wouldn't let me shave until 7th. I remember it being SUCH a big deal in middle school haha

[@Suze147]

I enjoy watching your videos and transparency. Please go to Italy someday. Stay away from Rome, (to many people) the lake district, Venice, and Tuscany area would be right up your alley.

[@ifthecreekdontrise]

We have much in common =D with the very most important one being the CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES!! Our love languages are also the same & I'm a massive over-thinker. And let me just say, Italy is AMAZING! My hubs and I celebrated our 25th anniversary there in April of 2016, spending a week in Rome & a week in Sorrento. There are no words. We are eagerly anticipating our next visit to northern Italy.

[@BrittaniBorenLeach]

If The Creek Don't Rise ahhh I’m so jealous!! Sounds amazing!!

[@MidwestMama]

I was just wondering how you mentioned that you get carsest easily, is it the same when you fly?

[@HomemakingWithFarrah]

Italy is definitely on the bucket list for me as well!😉

[@beapuente3655]

I LOVE your sweater!! Also, I started shaving in the sixth grade. Love this video and your channel!

[@jenna9499]

We have SO MUCH in common!!! Are you a Virgo?

[@jummyberry]

Since you like affirmations...You are AWESOME, and SOOOO ADORABLE! Love you just the way your are. You are doing a great job with this YT channel. :-)

[@sweetazrn12206]

Such a great video! Loved hearing about you. I can relate a lot- I was a nurse extern at a psych center, had OCD as a child (reorganized my dresser at age 3), not good at affection, love routines, and my dream job is stay at home mom too. Thanks for opening up to us! ❤️

[@julieelizabeth9807]

Love this. Thank you for talking about anxiety medication! I have Zoloft in the cabinet that I'm scared to take. It's so good to relate to someone! 💜
