Thank you to everyone letting me know the sound is slightly off! I noticed people have been mentioning it recently but my audio checkers couldn’t pick up the problem through my editing software, only once it was uploaded to KZbin did it seem to become slightly distorted. Just got my lovely wife to look at the microphone and she realised it had cracked slightly! Oh Deaf Problems! 🙈 New microphone is on its way so Friday’s video should be back to normal 😊 xxx

[@kalystamainville8022]

In a way, it just makes the audio sound "older" - which to be honest, I didn't really notice too much since it matches your aesthetic and fashion style lol! Almost could pass as an editing style choice!

@@kalystamainville8022 for me it was mostly inaudible what she said, i couldnt understand almost anything

Ahh it reminded me of the sound on your older videos. Then I thought maybe it was so the sound went with the vintage vibe because it sounds like very old audio. lol

[@whychoooseausername4763]

If there's one life lesson I got from med school I can convey to others is that there is no "right" emotional response to a medical situation. In medical rotations, I'm rarely the first person to talk to someone about their prognosis because I'm the most junior member of staff, so when I come in to talk to them, they've developed a reaction to their disease and I'm just a witness. Every emotion is valid and there is no fixed path to move forward for any person or illness.

[@nondisclosureable]

I understand the not rightness of a face. I have actively avoided mirrors and mirror finish reflective surfaces for years. I was born Autistic spectrum and never very comfortable with faces to begin with. Then I had a series of injuries one of which affected my brain and another which damaged my hearing (among many other issues). So now I have prospagnosia and have to supplement my hearing with lipreading. Every face simultaneously looks similar, unfamiliar and wrong. I can see faces when looking at them and I can remember certain things like hairline, facial hair or if someone has a lack of mobility in the face, but I can't retain memory of what a persons face looks like. A few years ago my partner shaved his facial hair for a Halloween costume and I flat out refused to see him for months because I couldn't process that he was really him without it. After years of being accustomed to watching his beard I could barely understand him without it and his voice not coming from a beard was just too bizarre for me to handle. Seeing myself in a mirror or other reflective surface if I'm not braced for it is the worst. I remember my face from before injury and NOTHING about the facsimile I can see now looks right or even close to right. Faces are creepy to start, faces that always look both the same and like strangers are worse. Having that same not right stranger's face look back at you from a mirror is straight out of a horror movie. So many coping mechanisms to get by.

[@jmpmusva]

After discovering you today, I can't wait to tell my friends about you! I'm a 60+ year old straight guy and you're fabulous

[@robertworstell463]

You've convinced me in less than a minute to get the game when months of ads did the opposite.

[@katrinapeine739]

This hits on so many truths. Unrelated to disability or accidents so many people struggle with their own appearance. Weight, aging, even something as normal as growing up is jarring psychologically. My teenage self hated stupid parts of my face for seemingly unreasonable reasons. Looking back why did I obsess over my cupids bow for being too deep? Why did I freak out over the smile creases in my face? I was a baby then and looking back I looked normal. But it was the growth the change the aging I was unsettled with, my brain wasn't ready to accept the new version of me. I'm 30 soon and I am going to have to work on accepting that in this next decade my face will be changing a lot.

[@DavidLindes]

Out of curiosity, regarding 8:02 ... have you tried reversing (left-to-right) photos of yourself? Does that make a difference for what you're talking about? I remember a time way back when when I did a photo shoot for a friend. I printed (I was taking B&W photography classes at the time) a few different ones, and they didn't like any of them. Frustrated, I pondered it for a while... and then a few weeks later, I presented my favorite of the photos, but printed backwards. My friend loved it! I think they even asked why I hadn't shown them that photo previously... but of course I had, just reversed. I don't know for sure what all factors might have played in (mood on the day, familiarity of an image once seen, etc.), but the big factor to my mind at the time was the reversal. And I know we're used to seeing ourselves (or at least were, before the days of Instagram and such?) in the mirror more so than in photos, so... I wonder...

[@emmafairson5932]

Thank You for your constant british sarcasm. I honestly love the way you can talk about serious topics while still making me laugh. X

[@KarynPeterson]

your description of a day without migraine made me tear up---i get about one or two pain-free days a year and i know that feeling so specifically.

[@greenteawithbees]

Aura migraines are the absolute worst. They look like that to me but with added disco lights and heat wave patterns.

[@iHatePlasticBags]

tilla I usually can’t see half of the picture my eyes are seeing...hard to explain :/ if I stare at a digital watch I can only see minutes, not hours. Ever happened to you? Then come the numbnes in half of my face/arm/leg and then the headache kicks in

[@nessbailey7931]

Mine looks like the light positioned right above my left eye is flashing. Even when I lay down it still comes down from my forehead. It only happens in my left eye and my migraines are always in my left temple/around my left eye. All I can think is that it’s really good I don’t have epilepsy triggered by flashing lights since my brain makes flashing lights itself.

[@greenteawithbees]

@@iHatePlasticBags Yes! I completely get that too. I look down and can only see half of my phone or some things are just black

[@jamie6528]

Did u ever play that slenderman game all those years ago? Whenever you look in the direction of the slenderman, the game's screen gets fuzzy and static-y. It gets worse and worse until you're eventually devored by the monster. That's what my migraine auras are like. Static that moves wave-like across my vision

[@ellalawrence4342]

I have really bizarre ones where one side of my face just stops working and goes all droopy. I don't really get the headache though so that's a plus.

[@MoonlitMallows]

My empathy for you concerning migraines is unreal, I had horrific migraines for three years and then they stopped and I'm still terrified of them. My worst thing was people calling headaches migraines, you know the ones that were up and walking around completely normal just complaining they had a migraine but in truth at least my migraines completely nocked me out. It was interesting about the aura because mine was. really different, I would have flashing lights accross my entire vision and have a very small gap to see out of, ugh it makes me feel sick thinking about them.

[@lobbinwood]

i was born premature and my left retina did not fully develop. it took me LONG TIME to be okay with it and not cry whenever i talked about it. but at this point in my 24 years of life i am finally okay with it and view it as a fun topic of conversation. thank you for making this video. i really appreciate all you do, jessica. i’m finally loving my little blind eye.

[@Panya.V]

My husband had a similar but sort of opposite problem -- he was overdue and the left side of his face was pressed hard against his mother's pelvis for 1-2 weeks -- that cut off blood supply on that side and damaged his eye so he can only see light/shadows in his peripheral from that eye. His biggest issue is not having any depth perception. Weirdly, it also caused his beard to not grow in a large section on that side until he was in his 30s. He turned 48 yesterday and now wishes he had 1/3 less beard to shave like he used to, lol.

[@1015SaturdayNight]

Jessica, you and I have so much in common. I have connective tissue disease (and now, RA) and spinal issues (herniated discs that led to double level cervical fusion and also scoliosis), and twice in the 90s I had Bells Palsey, which paralyzed the side of my face. I recovered but it's never been the same and I worry others notice, though apparently nobody seems to but me. I feel asymmetrical and off, though. I don't know if a mini stroke caused it. I also have migraines, so who knows. What's really odd is my pupils are two different sizes!

[@hailey.dionna]

i thought the audio was meant to sound like it was from the 50's lol i like it

[@alexneckoyami]

as someone with mild face blindness every once in a while I get really unnerved by my own reflection in the mirror because it doens't innately seem like 'me' and I get that uncanny valley feeling

[@raisashapiro6722]

Oh my gosh, thank you for this video! I had a migraine like this too awhile ago and while my vision did come back, the left side of my face is still partially paralyzed and you really do uncanny valley yourself about it, like, half your face is the ventriloquist and the other half is the dummy.

[@Drust79]

Hey Jessica! Just to let you know, the audio on this video and the last one has sounded quite distorted and muffled - I think your microphone may be damaged or at least malfunctioning. Thought I'd better let you know!

Sounds muffled for me too - not so bad that you can't understand it, but not as professional as usual.

[@zahnpastacremetube]

Yes, it sounded very "retro". Like an old gramophone...how fitting ;-) I loved what you said about the validity of feelings. I think you help more people than you are aware of, because of your personality and your pure existence...

[@alleigh25]

Oh my gosh! This made it click why I've always felt like photos looked nothing like me. I have amblyopia, which means my brain mostly ignores input from my right eye. It had never occurred to me until you mentioned it that my perception of how my face looks is completely different than it would be if I could see properly with both eyes, especially since I've had amblyopia my whole life. Add in the mirror effect (especially since that flips which side is more visible to me) and...yeah, no wonder I always think I look "weird" in photos.

[@wiebelziel]

Thank you for explaining this so well! I can relate to some of it. My face feels "wrong" right now because my meds are causing moon face. I know I don't really look bad but it's this weird feeling that something's off.

[@officialnyancat4417]

WHAT!?! You’re one of the most beautiful human beings I have ever seen...

[@amandaforshee5191]

Jessica, I cannot even tell you how much I desperately needed this video. I'm on a pretty bad downward spiral with my depression right now, and I'm finding it very difficult to even like myself, let alone love myself. I so very much needed to hear the message of self-love being a journey, especially when stated as eloquently as you did. My brain often doesn't do what I'd like it to do, and there are so many days when I feel like it has let me down. Thank you for helping me feel less alone in that space. Your videos do a world of good.

[@patchoulicolt7093]

I've never been into the whole gardenscapes build your own house, but Jessica actually kind of sold me on this game. These kinds of games are great for the disabled, because it's slow, and you don't have to react quickly. I'm always trying to find games that are easy enough that I don't have to get into that competitive mode and get anxiety, or stress out my muscles.

[@fanfandor7824]

Hey) First video, which I saw on your channel is about that you are deaf) I was completely surprised 😅 There you told that it’s very important for you to talk clear) I am from Russia and I decide to learn English) So, your videos are so understandable Thank you very much because your so helpful for me to learn this language💕💕💕

[@RWorley3sl]

When I got my sight back it took a while get used to seeing my face again, never heard it explained in such a clear way. Thank you

[@elizabethcraig4863]

I can relate to this on some level, while I don't have paralysis in my face I do have tremors in the right side of my body due to Serotonin Syndrome that did not alleviate after the typical 5 weeks, its been 3 years. Most of the time just the corner of my eye and mouth tick as well as a slight tremor in my right hand but any time I become overly stressed or have too much adrenaline for any reason (being sick, not enough sleep, emotional stress, busy line at work) the right side of my body kind of just melts down. During these times I'm prone to get foggy and tired as well so to someone who doesn't know what is happening it looks like I'm having a seizure or stroke. I'll fall, slur my words (tongue and lips start to tick and tremor as well) my core, arm, and leg muscles are constantly tensing and jumping until they either go into dystonia or I take medication that knocks me out. Its really hard not to be frustrated with my body when this happens because I just want it to do things and it wont! Even though people don't notice my tremors generally unless I point them out, I am always aware of them and the small adjustments I've had to make over the past few years to accommodate them. This video and your migraine video about separating your mind from your body really resonate with me for these reasons.

I’ve had visual migraines every now and again for the past few years, my auras look like tv static instead, interesting to see your version!

It's amazing to me how our perception of our faces can change, not just due to trauma and diability--although that is a huge consideration and not one I have thought about before--but even just throughout a day or week. Sometimes I look in my mirror and I tell myself "girl, you look amazing!" and then others, I feel like I have all of these things wrong with me. (also, looking at my face without my glasses on sometimes is scary because my eyes look like black holes)

I also have hypermobility syndrome (not genetic eds) from an accident to my hip, SI joints, and lower back , which (without proper cae) spread laxity up my spine and eventually has affected all joints. I too have a lesser degree of feeling on the entire left side (and it's lights out internally on the left side of my face- I never thought I'd hear someone acknowledge or understand this experience!)

You're a beautiful and wonderful person, and I am so happy I found your channel.

I can relate to this a little. When I take a photo and the camera inverts the image on its own, it really messes with me. It no longer looks right. Even though that's probably how other people see me, it's not how I see myself. I get this weird disconnect from the image and have to delete it and change camera settings.

I love that you said this! I have always hated looking into a mirror because my face never matched what I thought it should. As I've gotten older that thought has changed. I don't hate what I see. That being said I still don't look into a mirror unless I need to. The years of "training" myself to avoid looking has stuck. I try to remind myself to look but I can actually walk past mirrors 100 times a day and never glance at myself. It's nice to hear that someone who is so usually positive and uplifting sometimes feels similar. Thanks for sharing!

I have several issues with my appearance. I've been living with a constant, chronic pain for several years now, that's practically left me disabled and I think it contributes to my low self esteem and seeing myself as unattractive, although I was struggling with it even before my life turned into constant pain. Anyway, one of my issues is my very hooded eyes and I randomly ended up on a makeup tutorial for hooded eyes (from a guy who didn't really have very much of it) and it reminded me how much I dislike my own, but after that I ended up on a couple of your vids and it was just nice to see someone with what looks like the same degree of hooded eyes as me, lookin really beautiful (even if I'm super jelly of your thick hair !) So thanks for being you and reminding me that the trait doesn't have to take away from one's beauty.
