Sam! I’ve been meaning to comment this, but something that has helped me keep my room clean, has been the saying, don’t put it down, put it away. It takes some practice, and there are definitely days that saying doesn’t overpower the procrastination, but it does help! I love you and everything you stand for! Thank you for all your effort during vlogmas!❤

[@lanastrapaccount]

I’ve also seen the method of dedicating an hour to one thing just set a timer 💕 you can do it as many times as you would like in a day too :)

[@sarahsmith157]

I live by this! I normally do an hr a day but on my bad/depressed days I give myself 5mins here and there so I don’t get overwhelmed. I always feel better after and also Sam this has helped me from feeling negative things about myself at night when I have had a successful day and feel like a fresh start when I wake up

[@mollymarie2]

God thank you I’m gonna start implementing this in my daily life

[@dianaw4072]

Ohhh I needed this! Thank you for sharing! ☺️

[@khalilahd.]

Wait this is a game changer! I love this idea! Definitely using this tip too 😅❤

[@juliaparham2136]

The trio of Sam, Samantha, and Mama Kelly is everything that I need this vlogmas! ❤

[@khalilahd.]

Literally same ❤

[@mcarney101]

My anxiety is on another level, especially this time of year. But watching you every day helps in ways you can't imagine. Thank you for being here. It means more than you know to so many of us.

[@MandyBarry]

I feel that same way. I turn on her videos in the mornings when I’m doing things around the house. Having Sams videos on even just playing in the background helps me feel less anxious in general, and gives me this huge sense of comfort. They help me deal with times of isolation and feeling alone. When I am super overwhelmed or just to need to find some joy my hubs will tell me “go watch Samantha Jo” ❤️

[@kxmii]

so relatable. sending extra love for today xxx

[@spumoni9713]

Thank you for being so honest with your anxiety. I too have suffered anxiety and it’s hard to explain to someone who has never experienced it. Thank you for making us anxiety suffers feel like we aren’t alone. You have such a big heart. As for Mama Kelly…dancing queen!!

[@khalilahd.]

Couldn’t agree more ❤

[@mickaylawaldhauser5066]

Hey Sam 😊 just want to say as a therapist (and also just as a big fan of yours) it’s very uplifting to see you openly coping with your anxiety here and using the skills that work for you in managing panic attacks. Also want to remind you that it’s ok if the anxiety still shows up sometimes, because small progress is still progress. Also praying for true peace over anxiety and stress through the rest of vlogmas, and that you feel space to celebrate the sweet gift of Jesus💕

[@khianelson93]

I love this comment so much ❤God bless you!

[@daisy._.9115]

I loved seeing her do the calm down exercise, it’s so important to spread awareness about things like anxiety that can sometimes be belittled or overlooked, anxiety can be SO hard to deal with thank you Sam ❤️

[@chloeaase737]

Watching Samantha center herself really helped calm my anxiety. This is something I’m going to have to do. Thank you for being real and honest when many of us struggle with anxiety.❤️

[@nicolep.1392]

My nighttime anxiety has been awful lately too! I appreciate knowing other people go through the same thing because it makes me feel less alone ❤

[@hopeallyson6781]

It absolutely helps to be reminded that other people deal with anxiety, too. Even though I've come a long way in my journey and have it mostly under control, I still have those times when I feel like a total nut job - like a "WTF is wrong with me while everyone else seems functional?" moment. I think we all benefit from someone showing us that we're not alone. 🖤

[@stefmyyrr]

i’ve been dealing with anxiety my entire life. i’m 27 and some days i don’t even know what to do with myself. i also have generalized anxiety but i also have severe panic attacks daily. it’s really hard. but i love that you share about your anxiety in your videos. it really does take a lot of courage to do that and im here for you! we’re going to get through this together 🤍 love you sam!!

[@reinaz5468]

Manifesting next year’s vlogmas Samantha Jo will release a Christmas album and bless everyone with her amazing voice✨✨

[@angelique_cs]

I am the Momma Kelly in my own life; secret snacks, killer dance moves and always wanting pizza. I really value your relationship with your mom since it's not something I really had with my own mom. Keep up the good work, ladybug!

[@juggling.the.johnsons2290]

SAMANTHA JO!!!! I've never been so early to one of your videos!! I'm in my 30's and you inspire me to just get out of bed! Thank you for being you!

[@karagrace643]

Watching momma Kelly sit in on your voice lesson warmed my heart!! That is the sweetest thing ever.

[@Linzy8956]

Anxiety sucks, I'm tortured by my own fear constantly. Praying helps me too girl, and music...and my dog. We will get through this💜

[@Cheri94]

Praying for you! I feel your pain.

[@christinet4951]

It's surprising how much music can affect your mood, I notice a big difference if I don't play music to start my day. If there is upbeat music playing, I immediately handle irritating things with a more upbeat attitude :)

[@emilyelise2112]

Seeing you be so raw and vulnerable in your own anxiety even though it makes you uncomfortable is a comfort for me and many of us out there. I just want to thank you for being so transparent and allowing us to also be as much of an open book as you because you give us all this platform and ability to make human connection which is so important. All of us just want to know we aren't alone. With that said my anxiety gets bad at night. As a 32 year old mother of 4 with social/general anxiety I obsess all night and make myself have several panic attacks about being afraid of death and leaving my children behind/not being able to be there for them. To a lot of people this sounds irrational but it is my biggest fear. I haven't told a lot of people this at all, until now, obviously. But, thank you for being a space where I feel comfortable enough to share that dark and twisty side of what parent hood looks like sometimes to me. 💜

[@tiarapresley6151]

I love how open and honest you are about your anxiety it makes me feel like I’m not alone🫶🏼

[@heidygonzalez2863]

I found you in 2020 in the peak of my depression and to this day it means so much to me when you share such vulnerable moments! I also have had an anxious day and you described it so perfectly 💕

[@lydbuxton]

Seeing your animals trying to snuggle you at the end of this vlog was so cute, they can sense you're not feeling yourself! Anxiety is the worst... hope you're feeling better when reading this!

[@natalietankersley6517]

honestly, you help me deal with my anxiety so much. i struggle with massive stress from school, and your videos have honestly kept me going during exams this week. thank you for being so transparent with us, it’s a true gift.

[@khalilahd.]

Oh my gosh I thought I was the only one who had bad night time anxiety but you’re right it makes me feel better that I’m not the only one. I hope we both get better 😅

[@ririm21]

Been watching for years and have usually been a bit of a silent watcher but wrote once because you had impacted me in such a meaningful way and helped me cut out toxic situations and people and from that I’ve grown so much and I just want to thank you for being that source of light in a time when I needed it most and for continually being that source! From feeling alone to now being married with two littles and a small business and still achieving more, THANK YOU🥺❣️

[@bethany2604]

Hi Sam! I just wanted to say thank you so much for helping me with my anxiety and bringing me so much comfort. This past year I have noticed how much my anxiety has gotten worse. Since Thanksgiving my anxiety has been through the roof because of life and school and just me being in my head. December has been rough with final exams and my roommate currently in the hospital. It has just been a lot this year. But thank you for just being here and letting us join you. ❤

[@brieannajosey3360]

i wish sam understood how much she helps so many people. i’ve been watching for years and watching her bring me so much join in happy videos and more somber videos like the beginning of this video brings me so much comfort to know that i am not alone. we love you Samantha Jo❤️

[@druepinkerton439]

My nighttime anxiety is especially bad in December, thank you for helping me not feel alone. I try really hard to redirect my anxiousness into self affirmations while I’m laying in bed. It doesn’t always work but it gives my brain something else to focus on other than the thousands of things it will default to if I don’t keep it busy.

[@mhairicameron6196]

I wanted to post this for a while, as I have been watching your videos for maybe 2-3 years. I’m not 100% sure but all I want to say is your vlogs along with Momma Kelly’s have brought me such comfort and motivation to do better for myself and clean. I am so grateful to have stumbled across you when I was searching for vloggers who talk about their mental health because I struggle so badly with my own. You both have made this year a little brighter for me as I have walked away from a toxic lifestyle I was putting myself through within my friendship group. It was beyond toxic, I always felt like I was no fun to be around or that my rbs ( resting bitch face ) would ruin the mood or make people not like me. I always felt I constantly brought the night down because my mental health was so bad when I was drinking, heavily drinking. I would become a unstable silent mess that would self isolate myself away from the group because I thought it was better that way. They wouldn’t have to deal with me. I constantly put myself down and gaslight myself into believing that I wasn’t worth the time of day or the effort I put into other people with their issues. I rarely spoke up about the things that bothered me because I didn’t want to upset anyone. I find it hard to speak up, I get nervous and fumble over my words. So whenever i was alone I would sit and cry after nights out alone in my house. I still feel guilty for walking away from my friend group but I couldn’t handle the lifestyle I had to pick my mental health over being unstable and feeling like I was being replaced. Watching you and Momma Kelly makes me feel like I’m not a lonely hermit who prefers to stay in their house. I wish my social battery didn’t drain as quickly as it does. Still thank you both Sam & Momma Kelly your videos and kinds words you are both amazing wonderful women who are such inspirations 💚 I hope you both take care of yourself and that Momma Kelly is on the mends from her cold.

[@swetlanasubzow8741]

Social Media is so fake im glad that somone can talk about struggeling and mental health because it gives me the feeling that i am not alone with this kind of problems. I love you for that and i wish you the very best💕

[@kassiebrooks6092]

The sitting on the bed, looking around, not even sure how to feel...I felt that. Anxiety is such a struggle and it's nice to hear you talk about it because it definitely helps others feel seen and get through their everyday struggles. Love you Sam💞 just gotta take it day by day

[@elizabethjackson4276]

Everyday i watch your videos it changes my whole day to better. Just went through an awful breakup, my anxiety has been at its peak for the last few months so I’m grateful for people like you using their platform to show what almost everyone experiences. Thank you and mama Kelly 💗

[@notreallydevin]

anxiety literally hits me at the most random moments. i'll have the best day ever and then could be crying myself to sleep that same night for absolutely no reason. you're definitelyyyy not alone

[@delzerpants]

Catching up on these videos finally and at the end you said “there has to be a reason to share what I share online”. It’s all of us who resonate with you and that helps a ton. I never thought of phrasing what I feel as night time anxiety but that is totally it. It’s really hard to voice how we feel but watching you and reading comments shows we all have a safe space to express this. Thanks again for all of your hard work! 🦋 😊

[@modernbookhunter5057]

Sam you are my comfort "place"..I started going to therapy recently and when a therapist asked me how many mins/hours a day i would say im anxious they were surprised when i said 24/7, i surprised even my self with that answer, hearing it out loud..thank you for being so relatable and down to earth..im trying to find some things to make me forget about anxiety at least few mins a day but its a struggle because i never believe in a process, only the results...thank you for being our "older" sister, even tho im 26💀💗

[@miamistrawberry]

Me too, as soon as I open my eyes Im filled with dread until I finally fall asleep. I also watch Sam as a comfort and distraction. You aren’t alone!!!!💓

[@modernbookhunter5057]

@@miamistrawberry it helps to know im not alone but at the same time its bitersweet to know another human is going through same struggles. Im sending you a big great virtual hug, dont ever give up, you are worth it💗

[@nattiemae]

I’m glad you kept that clip in of how you address your anxiety! My daughter has a really rough time with it, and this may help her out! Thank you so much Sam!

[@samthegoblinchild1937]

My name is Sam, and my moms name is Kelly, and I’ve always found that a very funny coincidence. I love you very much, you are my comfort KZbinr. I dip into really bad depressive episodes and your videos always help lighten me out of them. Thank you for being a beam of light and comfort in both my high and low points, thank you for being yourself.

[@Oliviair17]

I've been having a lot of physical health issues the past couple weeks and vlogmas has given me something to look forward to. I'm so excited to watch your vids every day! My vlogmas crew comes in on Tuesday, I can't wait! Hope all is well! Don't forget, the world is a better place with YOU in it!

[@calliejayy]

Sam, I don't know if you'll see this since it's a little late (I'm catching up on vlogmas currently) but I'm so thankful for you sharing your anxiety with us - with ME. A minute ago I became so anxious and almost had a panic attack (which happens quite often). I'm thirteen years old and it's a massive struggle for me. I knew watching your videos and just knowing that you struggle with those kinds of things, too, would be comforting to me. And right then and there God said "I know you need this right now" and sent me the angel of a person, Sam, to share her anxiety struggles and make me feel seen. So just know, that night when you were fighting that anxiety, God was doing that so that you could help brighten this person's night and comfort her in the middle of the storm. Love you, Sam. Thank you so much! -Caroline

[@hellopeeps2001]

I love how open you are with us and thank you for being vulnerable and honest with how your anxiety affects you. I have anxiety as well and it eats at me some days and is barely existent the next. Anxiety is different for everyone and it helps me feel better about mine knowing that I’m not alone💕

[@jaysmithcool]

I appreciate your honesty and willingness to be vulnerable around your experience of anxiety. Your openness really helps people feel less alone. And I'm so proud of you for keeping up with the singing lessons, you're sounding really good! Also the guess the pop challenge was too much fun 😀

[@IngridXoxo]

I’m obsessed with your vlogmas videos since 2019 I found your channel when I was dealing with severe anxiety and this year has been the most difficult year ever for me. I’m no longer with my partner of 8 years anymore so I’ve been beyond depressed but watching your videos everyday has helped me forget even if it’s for a little bit. You’re an amazing person and thanks for making me smile and laugh you and momma Kelly 🫶🏻

[@morganmobley1832]

Coming from someone who struggles with anxiety it is hard and sometimes frustrating to hear that it does get better, but it does! “The sun will come out tomorrow” love you Sam ❤

[@polinabozhikova6695]

My nighttime anxiety is also awful... Just like you said, I also brutally bully myself. I do grounding techniques as well (for me personally, sometimes they help, sometimes they don't 😔) It's definitely been a stressful year for a lot of us, but we have to keep going ❤ Thank you Sam for sharing your feelings and experiences with us, you're one of the bravest people I've ever seen! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@cozyrost]

I also do the same strategies for anxiety and you are not alone with the late night thoughts. When you said “I can hear the inside of my ears” I never related more.

[@kaylaramstad6328]

Hi Sam, I just wanted to thank you for always being so real. I put your videos on when I'm having anxiety.. which is definitely amplified at night. You're so right in saying that it's nice to know we're not alone... that we aren't the only ones who suffer. This video helped me calm down. Thank you for being you. I hope you're doing well 💗

[@ashsmith1098]

I have struggled with mental illnesses ever since I can remember. Without turning this into my life story I will say at the beginning of this year my anxiety has turned into Panic Attacks that seem to last almost days or more .. watching your video has helped me feel like I'm not alone especially watching you do coping mechanisms and showing what works for you Thank you for helping all of us and keeping us entertained with your videos! You're an amazing person and I know Mama Kelly is so proud of you. Thanks again for being amazing overall and real! ❤️💚❤️💚❤️💚❤️💚❤️

[@margaretboelts6064]

Literally my favorite Vlogmas to watch! You and Momma Kelly *chefs kiss* Makes Christmas so much more exciting every day!

[@ItsIvyy]

Even though you added funny bits to your anxiety exercise the whole situation just made me want to give you the biggest hug. I've had my fair share of those feelings and emotions and honestly it's so scary ecspecially when you are trying to just keep it to yourself. Your so strong and I'm definitely trying this next time I'm in a bad place and I'm also still here vouching with you about the water bottle! I'm obsessed with mine. 🤣 Love you!

[@runsoffsarcasmcoffee8303]

Literally every vlogmas from here on out should start with Momma Kelly dancing, THAT is the definition of spreading holiday cheer! ❤ Sam - love yourself at every single time of the day, you my dear are spectacular! Also if you really want that KT Krispies bar, LMK, I got one a block from my house, we can make that happen!

[@jordandarielle]

Sam, I appreciate you showing us that you have anxiety. I’ll be using that grounding technique the next time I’m anxious. Your relationship with your mom reminds me so much of my mom and I ❤

[@shayleenrose9118]

I rarely hear influencers talk about night anxiety but it is so real! I struggle almost every night to fall asleep because of it. For months I would get panic attacks almost every night until I spoke with my psychiatrist at the time and got diagnosed with panic disorder along with my generalized anxiety. I take meds every night now about an hour before I sleep and it’s helped so much. I still get anxiety through the day and at night but the panic attacks are very minimal now. I feel you girl it’s hard af talking with professionals helps a lot. Like you said give ourselves grace we’ll get through this😌♥️

[@kaitlynrusso7771]

i love learning about how you approach your anxiety. I suffer with social anxiety and it's something that I feel like has hindered my life for a long time, but I've learned to take steps to work with it and grow in spite of it. Thank for always sharing the realest parts of you with us, it gives me hope that one day I won't be scared anymore. Also, I love hearing you sing and you going to voice lessons makes me want to try it, but I'm too scared they'll tell me I sound terrible.

[@hearts4pasq]

I’ve been watching your videos for about 3 years now and i love them so much. Whenever i’m sad watching your videos always makes me happy and you’re videos have made me smile when i have nothing else to smile about.

[@oliviaboban5326]

Sam, that segment at the beginning is what I needed to see. I'm tearing up writing this cause that was so incredibly nice to see and hear. You never cease to be so real with even if it's not all the time, the little segments like this just make my whole week. Thank you again Sam for everything you do.

[@gwynethikerman]

I was feeling so anxious & sad tonight. This video helped me mentally, more than you will ever know!🫶🏻🥹 You talking about mental health makes me feel less crazy & alone in this big world!💓💓✌🏻✌🏻

[@megantaylor1632]

Sam I just wanted to tell you how much I love your channel. I found you during a really hard time in my life and to see you post your feelings and what you were going showed I wasn’t alone. Also thank you for sharing your relationship with momma kelly with us. It helped me see that my mom being my bff isn’t a bad thing.

[@stefanieslywka5593]

Sam, I write this comment quickly before my sleeping pill kicks in. I appreciate you so so much for sharing your struggles with anxiety. I see you, I get you, I feel you. I recently lost my job and a few days later was told we need to evict our home as our landlord needs to move back into it. This is a hard time of year for me already and my depression and anxiety are at an all time high right now. Your videos make me smile and laugh. And although I wouldn't wish anxiety on anyone, it really is comforting to know I'm not alone. Love seeing Mamma Kelly there with you and makes me realize I need to go see my mom, miss her dearly. Keep doing you Sam. You are beautiful inside and out. Sending love and Christmas cheer from Canada

[@Jennylove.]

As a chronic anxiety sufferer, I use meditation with calming music prior to bedtime, mornings I do palates and yoga. I often struggle with insomnia alongside anxiety so hanging out in my sensory room...*(think tube lights with colorful glitter, rope lights, bubble tubes, mirrors, and a swing in the corner/huge bean bag chair). Because light and sensory stimulation/play really helps bring me back down. I hope this helps anyone who may be struggling 🦋

[@rosy-smith]

sam !! it’s so nice being able to come watch u and see some one that’s being honest about life.i love being able to see that u posted and get excited because i love u so much ,i’m so happy that mamma kelly is there with u and i hope she got her pizza !! i want u to know that i love your vids 💗 . love ya ,your beautiful 💋

[@emiliaflynn5059]

I’ve been watching you for a few years. The main reason I followed you was because of how transparent you are. I see so much of myself in you and it helps me not feel so alone. I get really bad night anxiety and hearing you have it makes my heart hurt because I know how bad it can get when you sit there alone. Thanks for always being an inspiration.

[@katelyntisdale4808]

Hi Sam! I really appreciated you showing us the exercise you do when you’re feeling anxious. I’ve been feeling very overwhelmed and anxious lately and listening to you list those things actually helped me feel a little at ease. Thank you for showing us every side of yourself. I love you and can’t wait for Vlogmas to continue❤❤❤

[@amandaw9074]

I love how honest you are. It helps me for sure to hear that someone else is struggling

[@Amuseattack]

I just wanna say that I’ve been watching you for some time now . And i have no regret and just binge watch all of your videos again and again. When I’m sad I just watch you and you change my whole mood . The way you are so open with yourself is so incredible . Even when your sad you always figure something out to help yourself, Whether it’s from reading books to building Legos or even writing in a journal .Thank you for posting all the videos you do cuz it honesty helps me . I apologize if none of this makes sense I just woke up and saw you posted another vlogmas video and had to watch it 😂.

[@purple_lady9232]

I too suffer from anxiety, hits me as soon as the sun goes down, too many "what ifs" go through my head. To help me, I watch your videos and you have helped me so much with body image and mental health, it's a slow pace but I'm moving forward thanks to you. You really matter to me, again THANK YOU SAM 😊

[@vickysalas1397]

I love your vulnerability! I have chronic anxiety. There are nights where I sleep at 2,3, or 4 am. I have so many thoughts running miles per hour, palpitation’s, and feel fatigue! But I agree, praying does ground me.

[@jennifermurch7378]

I’m going to miss these vlogs so much after Christmas. From the bottom of my heart thank you for making these, you truly are here to help me see that I’m not alone, praying for your anxiety and healing, thank you, God bless 🙏🏻

[@Avalashah]

Hi Sam! I just want you to know that I’m so grateful for you. I watch you every single day, and you have helped me get through a lot of my own anxiety. (I have a journal where I write what I’m grateful for, and you’re in it!) You’re appreciated more than you could imagine, I hope today is a better day. ❤️

[@ItsStephy]

Girl I totally understand how you feel, anxiety is no fun business. I think praying is such a helpful way to help anxiety and depression, pushing for a more positive mindset. I started going to church with my husband about a year ago and it took a few churches to find one that really matched us and honestly, even just going one day a week has helped me tremendously! Feeling love and connection is such a beautiful thing. Prayers to anyone who is feeling any anxiety or any depression, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel. ❤

[@Ashleynh_2024]

Love that you’re sharing your issues with anxiety. My anxiety has gotten so much worse in the past couple of months and it has been hard :( today I’m literally binge watching your videos because I just feel so burnt out from my mind always churning. It does help that you share your perspective and makes me feel less alone. Sending love ❤

[@katerikuhlow8330]

Girl!! My nighttime anxiety has been the worst this past week. Up all night and my brain won’t stop! My dog also threw his back out again last night & that is not helping me feel less anxious. I’m so sorry! It’s so frustrating. Deff not alone

[@kansastowers1807]

thank you for the talk of anxiety at the beginning of the video. I struggle everyday with GAD some days are harder than others. today was a hard day, and knowing that someone else is experiencing similar things is comforting. i’m sorry you are going through this but thank you for helping me not feel so alone❤️

[@Baconbreath0652]

Wow Sam your voice is angelic. I have heard you sing before but today you sounded absolutely beautiful. I hope we hear you sing more.

[@delanisullivan4052]

Literally the other day I was going to my nieces birthday party and I felt overwhelmed and anxious and my heart started pounding really heavily and I felt like I couldn’t catch my breath and I had to talk myself out of a panic attack because I didn’t want to upset myself before I got there so I definitely understand! Sometimes you just need to tell yourself everything is going to be fine and the world isn’t going to end :)

[@tonya4525]

I also have anxiety at night. Exactly like you do. I've started going to therapy and it's slowly helping. Another issue I have is self worth. Watching you helps me alot. Just to know you're not the only one feeling that way. ❤️❤️

[@spookymei]

SAMMMMM!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASEEE. you are the ENTIRE REASON i sing and I want to DEFINITELY hear about your voice lessons and how to sing properly!! I have been doing voice warm ups online that are designed to help you sing correctly and I would definitely love to hear some of your feedback on vocal lessons!

[@savannahdeg2754]

Thank you for talking about your anxiety because I’ve been having many sleepless nights and watching your videos really help. Especially knowing that I’m not alone. Your appreciated more than you know❤️

[@sashagibson2187]

Sam, you are helping so many people with your videos… please always remember that. I have suffered with anxiety for decades and sometimes I know why (yesterday the guy was coming over to fix my furnace which meant I spent the whole morning waiting for him riddled with anxiety.) other days I just wake up anxious for no reason and I just have to deal. Also, I know you’ve been sick recently and I don’t know about you but sometimes when I get sick, I feel the same physically as when I have anxiety so it triggers it… like my body is confused or something. Does that make any sense? Anyway, you are showing people what it’s really like and that makes a lot of us (myself included) feel less alone. Thank you. ❤

[@destinyelexiz1497]

truly youre so real. I feel you and your mom and I admire it. keep killing it queens🥹🤍✨

[@katiekemp94]

Your videos make me feel so much better, I’m going through such a hard time at the moment, I don’t feel festive at all and it’s the little ray of light in my day. I feel so normal and happy for those minutes. You’re a wonderful person ❤

[@isabellak7897]

Sam, you are such an inspiration, I literally love you so much, and I don't know what state my life would be in without you. I have really bad mental health including, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and watching an influencer who's life especially their social media life is so relatable really helps me cope with my issues. I love how real your vlogs are, you have an amazing voice, and an incredible personality. I know God's got extraordinary plans for you, and I can't wait to see what they are. Also momma kelly knows her diet coke. Love you so so so much, happy holidays, praying for everyone.

[@khloegott1346]

I am so glad that i am not the only one. I sometimes can't even sleep so usually i watch something until i fall asleep but that is usually at like 2 or 3 am but i still go to school. when i go to school i am absolutely exhausted. I am so glad im not the only one because thoughts just go rushing through my head about so many things. (not about happy situations)

[@erinbratcher7974]

I just wanted to say thank for being you! I have terrible anxiety and you’re the only reason I feel normal sometimes! I love you and hope you and momma Kelly have a wonderful day!!🥰❤️

[@jazz98lol]

I'm sorry you are going through bad anxiety. My depression gets worse at night like your anxiety. The thing that I like to do when I'm depressed or anxious is to list things I'm grateful/all the good things I have. ☺️ I hope you get some sleep and feel better tomorrow. ❤️

[@Erika-pq7ip]

I've been trying to fix my sleep schedule. No matter how much I have to do or to think I'm like I don't care. NOW it's relaxing time so go to bed and stress about it tomorrow 😂🥲

Omg the pets at the end.. MY HEART! They were like "we got you mama" sooo sweet. I'm baking some Christmas goodies at 11pm to outrun my anxiety tonight. Wish I could share them with you guys! P.s: Sam the roomie seems so kind =)

Thank you for the videos, Samantha. Not to trauma dump, but my dad passed this August and I really haven’t been in the mood for Christmas at all but your videos and spirit genuinely helps. You’re a beautiful person inside and out and I’m just happy you exist. Thank you for the content and hard work, we love you. ♥️

hey sam! i struggle with anxiety as well, in specicfic with emetophobia, which is a fear of vomiting. very small things can set off my anxiety and just totally make me go right in a panic attack but other times, its just there in my head, all day long even if there was no trigger. I actually dont work or go anywhere because of it so i basically just sit at home all day literally doing nothing. i just wanted to comment this because as you said its comforting knowing someone else is also going through something similar. what has always helped me, even just a little bit is that when i start to get that feeling i immediately start trying to create the enviornment around me comforting, candles, music, my favorite show, essential oils, just anything serenic that makes me happy, and then ill shower, shave, do a face mask, paint my nails, do my make up, something to just focus on myself and make myself feel better. i know it feels like you cant do anything, or dont want to do anything in those moments but when you do it truly helps your anxiety and makes you just feel a little better in general. i hope that your day is better today and that youre able to feel better than the days prior! you got this, you know the feeling always passes whether or not it feels like it will. cant wait for todays video!

Sam, I really appreciated your openness about your night time anxiety. I can really relate to this. Espescially Iwhen i get in bed to go to sleep. My mind will not shut up and i will start thinking about terrible things and situations and i end up having a really bad breakdown because i'm terrified of the things that are very unlikeley to happen heppening. Something that helps me that might not help you but i'll go ahead and tell you. I listen to audiobooks to help me fall asleep. usually ill do one that i have already read. It gives my mind something to focus on so that i don't go into a spiral of these fears and anxieties. i hope and pray that things get better for you.

I started watching you last month and your videos have been really helpful to me. To appreciate my body and just to make me laugh during some anxiety ridden days. This year hasn't been the best to me and I've found youtube always brings me comfort. Thank you Samantha for being my new favorite comfort channel where I can come as I am and still be loved 💕 oh OH and I'm so excited to be joining the vlogmas family live every day ahhhh love vlogmas

Sam you are not alone, I feel you on the nighttime anxiety. The past 4 nights I’ve been awake until 6am just straight stressing. But why is it always embarrassing moments from my childhood that haunt me at night😂

“We don’t have to be perfect, we are just gonna do our best” I’m gonna get that tattoo for Christmas, love it🫶🏽

[@brenleighmahugi4399]

Omg, I thought I was the only one with nighttime anxiety!! Like when I try to go to sleep my mind starts going a million miles a minute just playing scenarios over and over again!! So glad I have someone who understands 😂

[@nicolesellitto8857]

I love following the voice lessons! Its so cool to see someone already amazing become a stronger vocalist. I appreciate your real emotions too because everyone else pretends to be soo great every day. Its nice to know im not the only one on the struggle bus of life.

[@kyraprashaw7610]

i have a 2 month old daughter & each day is very repetitive but i always look forward to the next vlogmas video. it defiantly makes my day and you have been my favorite youtuber for so long now. thank you for sharing your life with us & making us not feel so alone ♥️

[@miadearman7169]

Hi Sam ! I love how honest you are about how you are struggling ! We are all here for you and love you so much !❤❤

[@aldrake011]

nighttime anxiety is the worsttttt; i feel you sam. i recommend putting on lofi beats on spotify or youtube (airpods preferred) and reading on your kindle at the same time - which may not be easy during vlogmas but give it a shot!! as someone with generalized anxiety disorder, this is one of the best ways i cope

[@sarahvic458]

I love mama Kelly's vibe she just cheers everyone up
