I started an Anxiety Journey YouTube Channel. Would mean a lot to get a little support! I’m so nervous !

Hi there I usually post quotes on a mental health friendly supportive Instagram account, occasionally I journal or blog very rarely on blogs I’ve tried before, but I’ve never ever been brave enough to show my face and actually try a YouTube account D: and not be more anonymous behind the screen supporting. I would really appreciate any love or opinions before I risk getting hate comments or trolls with mental health stigma haha > mental health advocate than 😅😂🤣 people actually see it. But I would love to be able to help someone out there not feel so alone in their struggles or offer hope if they are just beginning their journey or could use some kind words/ experiences

If anyone could give me a bit of a boost 😂 so I don’t freak out or overthink the fact I actually did this and made it public and it could actually become something meaningful, I appreciate it! But if not :) I’ll do my best to do it myself, thanks! I tried to be brave and just do it instead of only think about it as a new hobby/ outlet.

My YouTube channel is:

My Anxiety Journey

Or was thinking

Inside My Anxiety Journey, since it’ll be pretty personal ^^ and genuine/ raw :p at times telling my experiences or what it’s like struggling with an invisible illness, physical/ mental.

Thanks!

Appreciate any love
I feel so nervous and embarassed. But actually proud I had the guts to do it D: though I was so back and forth about it.

Hope I’ll stick to it whether I receive good feedback or not, to actually make a meaningful difference and get more courage to do other things like this with advocacy groups or opportunities.

PS the 3 views are probably me 😅😂 overthinking and analyzing it too much but trying not too haha 😛 😆. I’m a work in progress lmfao 🤣 lol.

A really big deal to me, because I’m perfectly fine being open about my experiences and trying to help or relate to others and support them too, but not used to putting it on the internet like that with my face D: and fear the stigma or openness about it it’s so risky hehe but worth it :) in a way. So I hope it’ll be the start of something new and good. Feel free to share if you have any blogs, YouTube accounts or any fun hobbies/ outlets too ! :)

Also** I’m not posting to promote it, hope it’s allowed here, just needed a little love or support so I don’t back out on my idea 😅😅🥺😭😿💡💖😊😛😆😆😆 because I feel so alone in my experiences sometimes, and don’t want others to feel like that too.

And be alone struggling.

My Anxiety Journey

Hi I struggle with anxiety, and mental health/ depression, I know what it’s like to face struggles and stigma, I’m not perfect I feel alone, guilt and shame, I am a work in progress. I get better, and then I get worse, life rotates it’s normal. But if you need any source of hope, inspiration to reach out for help or anything you could find helpful here. I’m more than happy to. I’m not a professional I am just trying a new hobby and outlet hoping to help others like me feel less alone with invisible illness it be physically, mental health/ emotional or so on forth. Even if you don’t struggle I hope I can be a reminder that things do get better, and it’s okay to not always have everything put together. Life can be hard but it can be wonderful too. I wish you all the best on your journey, but this channel is about my anxiety Journey so far, so it’ll be quite deep and personal, but I hope if anyone ever sees this it may be of help. You are not alone. You matter too. Love - Laura O

Desperately in need of knowledge on Blogging or Vlog 🙏💕

I would love to start writing or making videos on subjects/things that I can’t find videos or information on when it comes to handling parts of life with a chronic illness, does anyone have any tips on how I could do this successfully or how to even start? Any advice would be helpful, thank you! #ChiariMalformation #Vlog #WritingThroughIt #Article #TheMighty #EhlersDanlosSyndrome #Lifehacks #WritingTips #Fibromyalgia #PosturalOrthostaticTachycardiaSyndrome #Dysautonomia #Youtube #Advice

Making a youtube account for mental health

Hi everyone/anyone who is reading this,
I really want to amp up my advocacy of mental illness/neurodiversity and further break the stigma... I have an instagram account called @obsessive.but.awesome
It's about my experience with bipolar/depression, OCD, anxiety, eating disorders, personality disorder, ADHD, trauma etc
I am considering making a vlog / youtube account to go with it... I want to share my story in a way that will help others. I have had family, friends, and strangers tell me that my posts help them or bring them comfort or education in some way. I also love to write-- so i'm going to try to see if I can get some articles submitted here on The Mighty (From 2015-2018 I published 26 articles).

Some topics I want to talk about:
-medication
-diagnoses (specific ones)
-exercise and mental health
-DBT/coping skills
-therapy for OCD and trauma
-my experiences in inpatient
-self care... also balancing school/work with mental health
-things i love-- traveling, writing, dogs, friends, books, (even tattoos lol)
These are just some thoughts I had! I'd like to hear others opinions as well! #BipolarDisorder #ObsessiveCompulsiveDisorder #ADHD #Recovery #Vlog #writer

Starting a Fibro Vlog what would everyone like to see? #Fibromyalgia #Vlog #livingwithFibromygia #Awareness

I am a 39 year old man with fibromyalgia and I am constantly finding that fibromyalgia is a misunderstood and there is still so little awareness. I am starting a Vlog on YouTube to raise awareness. I would like to show people all sides of fibro. I want to highlight our good times and not so good times. Most of all, I would like to give a voice to this unseen and misunderstood disease. I will appreciate everyone's feedback on what you think will help me raise awareness and understanding.
