Sage is the first person I have found that I can relate to. Her different views on the world and the way she is amazed by just the smallest things. It's really nice to know that I am not alone. That I am not wrong, that the way I am is perfectly perfect. For that, I really want to thank you. Both as Seri, and Sage, you have helped me, more than you will ever know.

[@wings_of_wax1227]

You are so inspiring! In my english class we had to write about a person in our life who has inspired us and influenced us. I chose to write about you. Because you teach me so many lessons that stick with me and have changed me as a person. You made me want to work with animals when I get older and to learn all that I can. You help me channel my creativity and think outside the box. Thank you. We all love you, and keep doing what you are doing.

[@PegaJuney]

I’m so glad that you continue to share your consciousness and similar deeply introspective videos. You’re so strong and beautiful and it’s beyond inspiring.

[@phinex1154]

❤💘❤❤💖💖💘💘❤💓❤❤ Their is no one who has inspired me more than you. Never loss site of the fact that you have so many people love and support you. I've never been able to talk in the community because of my anxiety but now, now I can comment freely without worry and once I get a job I plan on becoming a patron. I can't say how much you've helped my through my life and how you've been a light in my darkness. You and many others on this platform are the reason I'm breathing right now, and I can't thank you enough. I love you so much, never forget that we all do. ❤❤💖💘💓❤❤💓💖❤❤💘💖

[@Cosmic_Librarian]

I’m glad you’re back and that you’re feeling better. So take as long as you need and try not to rush yourself. The answers will come in there own time. Welcome back. And also, thanks for this. It actually made me smile and chuckle quite a few times.

[@MsJokyo]

Take the time you need, when you need it, darling. :)

[@sabrinawyman936]

This is deep.... I love you Seri and your channel.

[@JD-fh3bk]

❤️❤️❤️ You might be a weird woman who lives in a museum of plants, but you're an incredible weird woman who deserves the world and has inspired many people who needed an extra push or just plain advice to keep them going and trying again, myself included! I can't express it enough, I just can't, my appreciation for you is indescribable. I'm so lucky to have you and this community in my life, and like I've said before, I'll always be here supporting you every step of the way. Take the time you need. 🌱

[@abigailhawkfish384]

Wow that was inspirational, but im really sorry that you have to go through this stuff.

[@ryanl8764]

You are one of the greatest people I know

[@potofhunnt45]

I'm sorry but u are one of my favorite youtubers!! Don't make yourself all sad be the Seri you want to be!Go for it!

[@wings_of_wax1227]

I absolutely love you sooooooooooooo much, we all love you!

[@kerriannewhybrow4382]

you are a wonderful person seri im sorry you have had a rough start to this new year take all the time you need to recover your strength and creativty go shopping eat ice cream spend time with chips read chat with your mum on the phone write go on walks watch the entire series of inuyasha [although that will take a while will have to watch it in bits] and know you have the support of your lovely community includeing me[the reapeat snail mail offending plushie maker who sends you books about chooks ] behind you and you have a awesome channel happy to be a part of it

[@songbird1513]

You've got me tearing up over here, Seri! You know that feeling you get when you could write pages of feeling and emotion to someone, with it all boiling down to "You make me smile because you're amazing?" That curling sensation you get in your stomach, the lift of your lips? I have that. Because of you. I have a quote I want to share with you. "Good friends are like stars, you don't always see them, but you know they're always there." (I don't know who said that) You help me. I have depression at age 13, and have been to that place you've talked about. No one should have to feel that, especially because of something you love. In a monologue I recently performed, I said, "Do you know how it feels? To be hurt by something you love, to hurt something you...do you understand?" (From the play CQ/CX) I do understand. I'm going to stop writing now, but just know you are loved, as Seri, and as the Sage you show here. It helps for someone who needs a person to connect with that has wisdom through hardship, when you hide away your own. So thank you. I love you so much, even if you don't know it.

[@ladykizzy123]

I think you have a beautiful name, face and personality. I love what you do and how far you have come; I know how you feel and how hard it can be at times, and this video has been such a wake up for me, thank you. Welcome back Seri, I can not wait to see more of you. 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿

[@abagailadkins8118]

Seri...oh.... Here * hugs * I know it's not a *REAL* hug but I hope you like it... * smiles *

[@abagailadkins8118]

SERI-ously Stop with the puns ....i will go now

[@ryanl8764]

I love everything you do it's amazing and helps a lot of people out. Keep it up! Make sure you take some brakes though! Hahah

[@teresas.2668]

I’m so sorry that you had to go through this trial. And you’re right-it’s not necessarily going on grand big adventures and buying tons of fancy stuff to make you smile. It’s about being able to enjoy the little things and being thankful for what you do have. For me, one of my favorite memories this year is going outside to get some firewood for the stove in the middle of the night. It was 15 degrees, so I was hurrying to get inside. I just glanced up for some reason and I saw the clearest sky chock full of stars. It was so beautiful, so awesome and mesmerizing that I quickly rushed to put the wood in, made a hot cup of tea, and came back outside just enjoying the stars for a good 20 minutes, I think. I think I squealed just seeing how clear the stars were, how I could hear the water trickling from our animals trough, how quiet it was. I felt so happy and thankful that i was able to find this precious gem that I was almost in tears. Please know that you have touched my life so much and brought some joy as well, and for that I am grateful. I am thinking of you and sending hugs. I am glad that you’re starting to feel better. I look forward to your adventures.😊🤗🌌🍵

[@mikititan273]

As someone who's heart-rate goes from 120 to 80 just by talking about bread I can say, bread does wonders

[@SharonKofoed]

I'm glad that you had a chance to rest, take care of yourself, and find joy moments for healing! Glad that you were able to walk to your PO box...being able to be out in nicer weather is SUCH a huge help! You take care of yourself!!! On a note of just noticing things that make you smile...another chilly single digit morning walk...but that didn't stop the birds who were excited for it to be warming up later today...SO many chirps, including a bright red bird near the top of a tree, chirping to let the world know that the sun was shining!

[@tealeaf4391]

I would love to be a patron

[@MistyDaveLeah]

Welcome back ❤ I love to watch these vlogish videos, the birds hoping and tweeting in the background always cheer me up ❤

[@wooopitywoop4279]

You're the person who inspired me to be a vet when I grow up. You're the first youruber to heard of. You inspire me so much. You're my favorite youtuber though I've been really busy with school I still make time to watch you. Amazing channel by the way.😄😊

[@rampagebeast8980]

Seri you have a nice channel

[@sofiaautumnforest1948]

I’ve been through depression twice! Once I was just really sad and would cry a lot. An the most recent time I was depressed. I would crave lollipops, stay in bed all day, and watch KZbin videos. I hope your problem can be worked out! I’ll also try to add as much watch time as possible so that you can help your family more! :)

[@mariastephens8643]

This whole day I'd had a massive anxiety attack... And after watching this video I'd forgotten all about it. The squirrel at the end made me so happy too. My heart feels much lighter. Welcome out of dormancy, little Sage!! The winter is passing, the season of spring is coming... and the joy shared throughout the season remains unchanging. Sage has touched hearts, like this one ♥

[@ShiShi-wn5zy]

So glad you're feeling better! I'm so sorry you get depression, I know first hand how rough it can get at times and this video really shows what a strong and amazing person you are. My daughter absolutely loves watching your game videos (yours are her absolute favorite) and has got me watching as well. :D Just remember when you get down you're not alone, you always have your family, friends, and fans all here to support you and it can't rain all the time, the sun will always come back out to shine :)

[@mmmwhatchasay1920]

Seri, whenever I feel sad, or stressed, or angry I come and watch one of your videos (more specifically your blogs or meadow videos) and it always helps me feel calmer.🌷🌸🌹🌺🌻🌼💐💠💮🌿🍀🍃

[@blazing_phoenix6650]

I cried while watching this. Seri I'm so glad your feeling better. We all love you so much and want you to be happy.

[@therainbowmarbles]

I only commented a few times when you were uploading often on this channel, but I've watched most of your vlogs. And you've changed my outlook a lot; reminding me to find things to be happy about, and smile more often, and share my happiness with my family and friends. In our world, it almost feels like it's cool to NOT be happy, and I really appreciate your little reminders that that isn't what I want to be like. Welcome back, and I hope things stay positive for you! :)

[@thatswsdork]

Whether it’s baby steps or giant leaps, progress is progress, and you’re allowed to be proud of it. Never be ashamed of that. c: Your videos (gaming and vlogs) always cheer me up, even when I’m in the worst of moods. It really means a lot to me. I’m glad you’re back.

[@BurgiexX]

Your videos help me so much, especially the ones about burnout. They helped me to spot the signs of it so that I know when to take a break (most of the time, sometimes I forget or don't notice until it's too late). But since finding your videos and joy journalling, I've also started to take notice of the small things that bring me joy, and going out of my way to find joy. Not only that but the collection of people in your Discord give me the courage and confidence to be myself and try new things, and it's just so wonderful to think that this one woman brought all of these things together

[@michigangarnet3804]

Youre a beautiful person Seri, i hope you feel better, and i know that it wont just make it better, but i love you seri. *gives Seri a hug*

[@nightgold2179]

It’s absolutely amazing how you can open up to us. It’s truly an honor. We all love you, and hope that you are okay. You’re amazing. Thanks for EVERYTHING!

[@allarin1868]

One time when I was really stressed I went to my mom's room and colasped on her bed. And my cat came and sat with me. She started purring and put her back paw on my lips and a front paw on my hand and she fell asleep. She stayed with me for over an hour, even when loud noises came she didn't run like she usually does. I felt very at peace and calm.🙍🙍+😺😺=👩👩👧👧

[@frostfoxcasebolt]

Were all here to support you Seri and the joy and love and the happiness you create Im so sorry all of this is happening, you really do inspire me to do more in life ^^ and have made me smile :>

[@parispupmc9340]

I love you so much Seri! Seeing your stuff always make me so happy and Don't worry I am totally addicted to Stickers too! (By the Way I absolutely love your name! Its really unique and pretty ;) )

[@Lilee177]

I've never felt such a connection with a youtuber as I have with you, and that has only grown since I joined the patreon community. There is something so truly honest and authentic about you... it's almost like you are literally sat next to me talking and not just on a screen. You are a beautiful person. You make me smile every time I think about you, or see one of your videos. You make me smile every day.

[@yodelere5933]

Hey Seri -or Sage. Both :) I’ve been watching you for so long, and I’ve seen how many struggles you have gone through and conquered and how you have grown. I have seasonal affect disorder too, as well as anxiety. I’m “only” a frivolous teenage girl but I can understand what you are going through. Even though I’m so young and sheltered (I really am quite privileged and I’m so thankful for how easy I have it) I have gone through rough times. I want you to know that I will try to be here for you. I know it doesn’t mean much, since so many people are offering the same thing. I really admire and look up to you, Sage. ❤️ 🌿🌸🕊🐿🐾

[@Suiw003]

Seri thank you. As you can see, you are inspiring many people, you are showing care and love for others. And I feel that it is time to give back. I may have not been in either of your channels as long as others but a lesson I have learned is helping me. The lesson is Love is abundant and keeps growing and comes from many different areas good and bad. So thank you. You always make me smile!

[@demisetra9031]

Dear Seri, A note to you, someone I've looked up and loved for years. See I am what you could call a happy person, someone who grins from morning to afternoon, someone who can take a hit and bounce up, smiling again. People around me aren't though, they are broken and sad and grieving or just in a bad place. Something differs thought, when you smile at that person who is lost. Their eyes twinkle, their mouth widens, even if just a tiny bit. That is why I am a happy person, why Im able to smile even though Im just as broken or lost as the others. Smiling at people always makes me feel better, and I think, even if just a little, it makes them feel good too. So even on a day where my head is clouded with heavy thoughts, bad thoughts, I look up and smile at someone. A stranger, a friend; I find something to appreciate about this person, and I use it to help others and myself, my self-destructive, weird self. Before this gets too long, I'd like to share a metaphor. We are all vases (yes like flower vases!) All of us are so beautiful, and so amazing, but we can crack. Some have skinny, rapidly moving lines that barely show on the surface. Some of us have huge kinks taken out of the corners. Maybe a line down the center. And another possobility, a crack you wouldn't be able to see unless you peered inside. Take it as you will, but I think what holds the vase together (even if its badly cracked) is the love radiating inside. I'll stop now, but I just wished to give a few of my cents. Thank you for existing. Thank you being here. And thank you for time and time again pulling me out of bad places and thoughts when no one was around me, or my thoughts were too dark to share. Thank you. Love, Demi

[@PenguinPownage]

every time i watch one of your videos i can say i always have moments of joy and think about life and what i find joyful in my life too. thank you for everything youve done, this video, and im glad youre feeling better and learning more about yourself

[@issaissachur8077]

Take your time, and relax seri. You are beautiful and there are people who love you. We all love you, I hope you are ok.

[@Beautyiscool307]

I came back from a long day at work so I'm tired and can't comment properly but I'm glad you took the time to rest and really look at your life. Balance is a pain in the patooki to work out and find, so again I'm happy that you seem to have found the balance you want and need. Hope you have a good day Seri! Keep smiling :D

[@Azazealfan]

Hello Seri, You are an amazing person and I wanted to thank you for doing what you have been.I'm so sorry you had to go through what you have and are still going through and I am happy you are starting to feel better.I wish you could know how much you have helped me since I found your community.I live in a world with negativity almost 24/7 and you have shown me how to look on the brighter side of things and try to find happiness in days where I feel there isn't any.It means so much to me what you have done for me and I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you Sage!

[@alexishoward7699]
