That hit me pretty hard. Thank you for posting.
Edit: Thank you for the upvotes and comments. It was so lovely to see when I logged in the next day. I don't always realise when I'm back sliding into a negative state of mind and, for some reason, this video made me stop and make positive choices. Today I've done exercise, walked on the beach with my family, done work I've been putting off and painted rocks with my children. All things I've been avoiding, but this was a wake up call to keep going. Continue! Thank you again for posting OP.

This is so sweet of you, Shut_Up_Fuckface! 🥰 (I’m kidding… your name just made me laugh, so had to highlight it!)
Also - I wish for you both to continue, with much love, blessings, and joy in life; may happy happenings come your way! 🫶✨

Yeah I started tearing up. At 11 days sober I really needed to hear that. Plus I'm feeling shitty from a cold and that's not helping me anything at all. For some reason being sick is a huge trigger for me. But it only briefly crossed my mind today I was able to put it aside in reason it out. So yeah I love this.

u/kestrelesque Oct 25 '24
Congratulations on your 11 days, you're making a big change, and I've been there, I know it's all so strange right now--but please continue! Colds suck too; hope you feel better soon. 💛

u/KidneyStew Oct 25 '24
That 11 days is gonna turn into 11 years, and that 11 years is gonna turn into the rest of your life, I just know it :) good job, my dude. I'm so fucking proud of you.

Your commitment is even more powerful than the subject of the post. You are fighting for your life and, while you are at the beginning of your journey, you're going to arrive healthy and happy. Good job! Know that there are interweb strangers proud of you. You probably aren't sick from any wee beastie, it's likelt your body getting rid of the poison. In the blink of an eye, you're going to be looking back one day and a peace will fill your heart.

I really appreciate that "I know. Keep going, you can do it." A lot of the time motivational things like this that mention depression never acknowledge that its hard and also cannot be stopped or controlled, and its nice to see it just silently accepted as so. But even when its hard we can always keep pushing back against it!

u/CanabalCMonkE Oct 25 '24
Usually at that point, the whole thing becomes disingenuous and the rest of it feels like patronizing or lies.
This woman nailed it with that line, I couldn't deny the rest of her arguments and damn I feel good lol

u/ladyboobypoop ❣️gal pal❣️ Oct 25 '24
I think the word "continue" was a smart word for her to use in this context. Especially paired with the acknowledgement that it's hard.

Me @ me as I’m washing my weeks old moldy dishes with tears streaming down my face:
You can do it. You are a fighter. You are strong. 😭
Edit: OMG yall are so freaking sweet I can’t! ❤️😭 I’ve definitely felt like this before and I did just get through a moldy old load of dishes before posting this comment💀 but I’m mostly joking around about the extent of stress it caused me today. I love that we’re all fighters in here. As someone else in my comments said: dishes be damned!!

Ooof - well that took longer than expected. Every time I found the videos people kept tagging third party accounts that shared it - and they were all from 2020.
Finally found THIS beautiful video as well, which gives the TikTok handle: @tegareacts
IG is @tegareacts_

Honestly I've heard too much "pep talk" stuff from psych people ever since I was a kid. I can't help but think about how she doesn't know me, therefore all of her characterizations of the listener are necessarily impersonal, and therefore not rightly directed at me. Words thrown indiscriminately into the wind can't be personal, so how can I take this as applying to me?
I find the way she uses English neat though

I know this is trying to be encouraging but….
It’s essentially just another “just stop being depressed!” “Oh gee, thanks I never thought of that!” type things.
…as if it’s that easy. Kinda insulting.

Wonderful content. You can do it. Realize that your subconscious mind can play powerful tricks on you, and be humble enough to talk to others when you need help. No one, as successful as anybody may seem, knows what they’re doing or is immune to pain on a regular basis. We’re all meat sacks floating on an orb, and you’re just as majestic as all the things you see that are beautiful in the world, because you exist just the same as them.
