Today I talk about being faced with depression after the death of my grandfather. I discuss my own mental health, how I made it through. I acknowledge that sometimes just making through the tough times is success. Currently I am doing much better, and I waited until I was in a better mental space to talk about this topic and share this video.

Totally feel your pain. I lost my husband , my mother, my brother, all my aunts and uncles and my best friend. The grief can consume you…I love your videos and hope you find peace.

I can relate Anna.Situational Depression is no joke.Not wanting to leave our homes, not showering or binge eating.We do what we need to to get back on track. We lean on friends because they are our family too . I know I'm just a random internet stranger but I care and am glad you are back on track. Peace and love to you now and always.❤

@KarensKorner 2 года назад

I greatly respect you not sharing other people's business that didnt need to be shared on youtube. Also, I have struggled with depression my entire life. You are a ray of sunshine to all those around you. I appreciate how much joy you give those who watch you. You are a wonderful caring loving person. Dispite how you feel you always think of others. You have a wonderful heart

I've been depressed my whole life and when bad things happen, like the loss of a loved one, it gets 1000000X worse. I'm glad you're able to talk about this ❤

@frosting6439 2 года назад

I have depression and anxiety. I take meds and they help me cope. It was trial and error to find the right kind and dose. I try and focus on good things like reading, gardening, nature, and spirituality

@bethsloan1502 2 года назад

So many of US in PAIN! I HAVE NO FAMILY OR FRIENDS. It is me and my emotional support dog. I haven't left the apartment but 10 times since 2020. I just started seeing a Psychiatrist cause it's bad when I'm not even taking care of myself because I really haven't cared about me!!!!! 😂🐕Be glad u have even at least one person, I would love to have that

I feel you 100% on this… I started going to therapy and healing past trauma so I literally lost my whole family. I have my friends and my own family o created but it still hurts when you lose your blood relatives… I see you and I hear you and your feelings are completely validated♥️

@brookemahanes 2 года назад

First of all: the mint green is everything on you. Second: losing your family, it is normal to feel lonely and depressed and for other family members to start a level of alienation you didn’t know was there. I’m so sorry because I have experienced it too. But your shining soul will persevere! ❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽

@Janadu 2 года назад

I'm so sorry for your loss. It is unbelievably difficult. One day at a time. ❤❤❤❤❤ Everyone thought my Mom was the greatest person on earth. She was. To everyone but me. I've spent years in therapy trying to undo the damage she did to me. And the freaky thing is I still love her.

@maryl.browning32 2 года назад

My mom loved boys.. there were four boys and two girls. My sister always said that our mom loved the boys more, but not us as much. I thought she was crazy until I became an adult and started seeing it. I only have two children that I love them equally.

@LuckySpinster. 2 года назад

I feel you. I've lost a lot of people too. There's just me and my son now. After cancer I felt completely alone. It's a frightening feeling. Thank God for my son who was a teenager at the time. 💜

@maktl54 2 года назад

"We create the world that we believe we deserve". I felt that. Thank you for sharing your experience. Wishing you the best

@suzy5444 2 года назад

Thank you for being vulnerable and putting yourself out there like this. I went through a horrible depressive episode from November to March, and I can relate to so many things you mentioned here. Your comment about allowing yourself time to do nothing is so important. Sometimes we need to shut down for a while to let ourselves process everything before we can heal. 💗💗

@pamelaspurrell8067 2 года назад

You are a rock star!!!! I absolutely love your personality and your outlook on life!! I have been suffering through depression and anxiety for years so I know exactly what you are talking about!!! You go girl, you got this!!!!!!

@carriehunt6196 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing your life with us Anna and always being so raw and honest! That’s why I love you and your channel!! 🥰❤️

@nummulite99 2 года назад

The thing with grief is that when you experience it/let it in, it opens the door to *all* the pain in your life. Other losses, great and small. Disappointments. Weaknesses. Anxieties. They all rush in through that door. Does this make it better? Easier to get over? No, not at all. But over time you will be able to slam that door. You will figure a way to process the grief. And be prepared for the next time it opens and let’s all that shit in again. This is not necessarily clinical depression. This is being a living, breathing, feeling, caring, loving human being.

@dartarro21 Год назад

Eloquently spoken! After my dad passed I had the most intricate, vivid dreams that symbolized all of the trauma I had experienced, like watching scripted well-directed films. It led me to therapy that changed my life. The mind works in amazing ways to process our pain.

@karenpate4289 2 года назад

That’s amazing. You should be extremely proud of yourself. You are absolutely stronger than you think you are and are inspiring and brave. Thank you.

@beckylg8176 2 года назад

Im sorry Anna, you got this what ever it is you got this. You are an amazing person who helped so many of us when we were down and out. We are all here for you❤️ I understand what u mean though. U want to scream it from the rooftops but the funeral isnt the time or place for it. You really said so many things that hit close to home especially the part about deserving things and taking showers and sheet cakes. i struggled with that as well when i was depressed after 4 funerals in a year. But i made it through one day at a time. It took a minute but i woke up feeling better day by day..

@bethb4432 2 года назад

I feel you on this. I’m down to so little family now, as well. It’s so hard. But as much as I heard so much pain in your voice, you still managed to inspire and make me think differently. So glad you’re on the upsweep! ❤️

@georgia8592 2 года назад

Grief is no joke it can create so many issues I hope everyone who is currently in this situation gets better 🖤

@YoursM979 2 года назад

Anna, you don't need to feel like you failed! I'm sure long term you will get back to continuing on your journey and life happens. we have to give ourselves grace when we are struggling, especially when we are going through loss and grief. I also totally feel you about the funneral stuff, I recently went through this and it felt like a lot of showboating.... so sorry for your loss ❤️

@pennystanislawski2594 2 года назад

I feel you, lost my Dad then my Mom. All the aunts and uncles are gone, that I interact with. I've struggled with depression and anxiety since my Dad passed in 2016. Was better, then my Mom passed July 2020. My family is far away and doesn't include me in anything. It's hard some days to get out of bed and do anything.

@blondieb6946 2 года назад

Thank you so much for this video, Anna. In speaking about your own struggles, you made me feel not so alone in the grief, loneliness, pain I have felt since my Dad’s passing in 2012 to aml leukemia, my only sister’s passing to years of alcoholism in 2016. I have been disabled since 2014, after failed spinal surgery, mobility challenges, pain that is with me every minute of the day. Pain has changed my life. Changed every aspect of my life. I have a hard time coping with it all. It’s been hard to push forward. It is scary as 💩 at times. I am sending you love and strength, Anna. Anyone who is struggling, please know you are loved and worthy of happiness. ❤️ We are worth it, we are!!! We can and will make it through.

@kristencleveland8725 2 года назад

@rowinginfaith3142 2 года назад

I am sorry for what you have been through. I have walked such a similar path and understand the complexity of family relationships when abuse and dysfunction have been your experience. I hope you will always remember that you are not crazy or unreasonable. Your situation has been. Some of the people in your life have been. You are a brave warrior who has survived and chooses to continue fighting for a life full of wonder every day. Don't let the lies of the past steal the beautiful future you have waiting for you. You aren't alone. If each day only has you eat, sleep, and breathe you did enough. You are enough and you deserve all the goodness that life can hold for you.

@Veromoi4 2 года назад

Thank you so much for sharing your journey and being so vulnerable!! I am recovering alcoholic and almost to 18 months soon. I have days where my discipline is great and days where I’m like crying asking god to lift all my burdens from me. I love your advice about calling people and reaching out when you’re feeling low, I still struggle with making phone calls. I’m great at opening up in person but weird about being the one to call someone. So your advice definitely inspired me. I’m so sorry for your loss as well, it isn’t easy to lose a special person. I spend a lot of time with my grandma and don’t even want to think of the pain I’ll feel when she’s gone one day. But again thank you for sharing your journey and for being easy and kind to yourself when you were experiencing depression It sure makes it more bearable. Xoxo

@marionb299 2 года назад

Its not that u looking for anything but to express the highs and lows of what life can give you (plural), and in turn give some relief and motivation. Thanks for sharing 💝

@christinebrennan6077 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing. I get it. Focus on what you have, what you achieved. That’s what i try to. Sometimes i get in the funk and think of the people that don’t show up. You made it through- keep rising. 💓

@nichelebrownlee1471 2 года назад

I'm so sorry for your loss. It sounds like you were grieving. Not only for your grandpa but for others you lost too. You didn't fail it was just a pause to get through a hard time. I'm glad your doing better. I love your energy and sense of humor.

@emmym5013 2 года назад

Hi Anna, Thanks for sharing your experience. It’s like your life mirrors mine in so many ways and I feel like I’m on this journey with you.

You are one of the bravest women I’ve ever seen. You have your followers here who love you. And while we can’t be with you in person, we are all embracing you online. Much love ❤️

@libbyhanzlik3110 2 года назад

Anna thank you for always being authentic. when I watch you I feel like I am hanging out with a friend and I think it's because you always present the real you. You don't hide the grit and it's so so appreciated in a time when young people are looking at social media thinking life should look like a filter. Thank you again.

Now I don't have any other relatives in my life friends don't have any I just shut down I do suffer from depression I know the hell you were in and i am so glad that you are feeling better. I love your videos can't wait to see what's ahead. ✌️

@jomooney6618 2 года назад

You are a winner and survival is the spoils. I can imagine how you feel about being alone.. I've felt kind of like that recently with some events in my life, but the kicker is, I'm not alone. It can happen no matter how many people are around you (even ones who care) anyway, you are not alone, even when it feels like it and I think you talking about it will speak to who it needs to speak to. I'm glad you are feeling better. I am so sorry for your loss and what you had to deal with in your time of grieving. And anything you wanted to say to your Grandfather, you can still tell him... I'm sure he is watching over you with love and pride. Hang in there and I look forward to hear your big news!

@luciamixon8119 2 года назад

@dandefinds1051 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing this most personal experience. Grief triggered depression is a thing and different for everyone. It hit me too at the loss of my Dad in 2003 and my best friend in 2020. I was not one to share with others, even my husband, what I was actually feeling. I'm proud of you for reaching out to friends. And I am happy to hear you are beginning to move forward. It is really hard and we are changed forever by these chapters in our lives. Sounds like your change will be a positive one. Sending love your way. ❤

@Deer548 2 года назад

When you spoke of people/family talking about how wonderful a particular person is that you have had horrible experiences with is a terrible, hopeless feeling. I can relate to that in so many ways Ana, and I’m sorry you have to go through that as I know first hand how frustrating it is. So happy for you that you’re past the rut you were in and moving forward with positivity. Your opening up about your personal struggles helps a lot of people which you should be proud of yourself for.

Anna I’m so sorry I really and completely know how you feel I lost my last grandparent two weeks ago and it was my grandpa I have my favorite person in this world was my nana she was my moms mom like my heart hurts she raised, me my dad was in jail until I was 12yrs. Close your eyes and feel the warm and loving hugs im sending you. Thank you for this video I needed to see it I’ve been holding this pain in for a while now I’ve just had my cry i needed since my grandpa died then when I could finally see what you have in your hair which is the blue butterflies, blue is my nana favorite color and she loved butterflies, she put your video on my must watchlist so thank you so much for your video

@jacksmom5233 2 года назад

I am so sorry for your loss. It's ok to be sad and to have negative feelings about people that hurt you. The positive thing about it is that you found out who your friends are and who cares about you. Don't beat yourself out about your goals. You are no failure. You are beautiful and you bring joy to so many.

@alifetime360 2 года назад

I can relate as well. I'm so sorry you deal with all of this. Depression is real & very difficult to work through. Just know you are not alone...

@kathybeamer5477 2 года назад

I am so sorry for your loss. My parents died years ago and out of 5 siblings, only my sister and I are left. Grief is just a tidal wave that picks you up, slams you to the ground then takes you up again. All you can can do is just keep your face above water and ride it out. Give yourself some grace. Food is comfort and all of us that struggle with weight will always go to it in some degree during rough times. Don't beat yourself up. Just do a little better each day if you can. As your grief eases, so will your need to find comfort in eating. Hugs to you. And remember, it really does get easier as time goes by.♥️

@robingarmon3258 2 года назад

Anna you gave yourself some grace. I understand as I was in that same dark place, so not my personality. I am on meds for depression for the first time in my life. It is a slow process to dig yourself out. It has been a weird couple of years and we all have a breaking point. But you are not letting you self stay there and that is good that you recognize it. I am here if you would like to talk. Your fellow Austinite, Robin.

@PBottomPoochies 2 года назад

To not “out” your bad family members on the internet is very mature and cool of you. I have some friends who have absolutely TOXIC people as family members and I can really understand why they blacklisted these people in their life. Honestly, since my dad’s passing my family has rather fractured and I feel pretty alone too. But I have good friends who I can count on and honestly I believe there are plenty of us out there who DON’T have that much family by blood left but who also NEED their friends as family. Friends are family. Welcome them into your life AS family. Sorry you’ve been through such an awful time. I had a feeling something was going wrong. Hope things are looking up for you!

I TOTALLY related to what you said about wonderful things being said about people who were not the great, incredible human beings people make them out to be. It is so frustrating to have to sit there and listen to people lionize others who did not treat me well. I just keep thinking I know the truth and that’s enough for me…I hope you find inner peace

Great words and I Pray I can too gain from my past of going back to the 5/6 yr old girl who was so abused and that person was a close family member and should have protected me i feel. But I will try to do what you have done. Thank you. God Bless All ❤🙏☝
