I saw you once in Gleneagles Hospital before, and despite me being a stranger, you gave me a beautiful most sunshiney smile! Couldn't tell that you are suffering from depression at all, in fact I thought you will make a wonderful counsellor :)
Hello. You were really sweet in your message, but please consider how you're exposing her personal life sharing the name of the hospital you met her. You could tell the same story without naming the place.
I burst into tears when she said *virtual hugs... i recently lost my dad bc of the virus n i felt like half of my world collapse. Thank you for sharing your thoughts n care. I know it probably wasn't easy for u too. *virtual hugs back
Thanks for your message. My daughter had been complaining about the lock down and, instead of being understanding, I told her that she should be thankful for being alive and having food. I apologized to her and told her she is entitled to have her own feelings and that this is a hard time for all of us. Thank you.
Such a beautiful message! I hope people who don't feel it is relevant to them still watch and take it on board, as it may be something someone they know is struggling with.
Thanks for sharing your story... everyone else in my family and my colleagues seems to handle work from home really well except for me... My anxiety, compulsive behaviours and depression seems to come back during this period after I took so Long to recover from it...the only advices that I get from others is, I should be thankful for everything that I have and that other people out there have it worst than me... I do try to be thankful... but the negative thoughts and anxiousness just overwhelms me so so much that I couldn’t really handle. Hearing from you that our pain shouldn’t be negated helps me to know someone else cares and even for mental issues, it is equally as important as any other external issues that others face
You please take care and stay safe. I’m pleased you are dealing with your depression. I admire you for you being so forthright. Thank you. I have depression, anxiety, ptsd and complex ptsd. I’ve had depression and anxiety since I can remember. I didn’t want to tell anyone because of the stigma of being mentally ill. I only did when there was medication to deal with it and now it’s far more manageable. Shu An, you matter. You are beautiful on the inside and the outside and thank you once again.
Oh wow, that intro bit was so lovely, really something I needed to hear right now. I've never really cried over a "famous" person talking about depression, it's never really felt genuine. But you really hit home with what you said, thank you! ❤️ Anyway, loved this video! Been watching for so long now. I hope you all stay safe and well. 😊
I wish you put out more videos like the one in the intro. Your voice is soothing and the way you word whatever you want to say, is calming and very reassuring 💗 Take care Shu An ❤️
First let me say I think your hair looks very cute. Also thank you for the heartfelt beginning, I can feel through the computer Your sincerity in actual caring for others. Also please take care of yourself and hope you are doing well
'It is OK to not feeling OK'... love this msg. A lot of time we r harsh to ourselves as expectations grow. Need to constantly remind ourselves that It is Ok to not feeling Ok. Thz for d message. Stay strong, Stay Safe! Love from Malaysia.
Girl I needed this today. After waking up from a dream highlighting childhood trauma, I had a cry session in the shower and needed to feel pretty even if it's only on there outside. So I put on a yukata because it's summer and the colors are beautiful which made me happy on the inside. Even if I indulge in distraction I know I've got a long way to go. Thanks for your sweet message!
I wish there was a separate version of the beginning from the rest so I could see over and over and I could send this meaningful message to the ones I love and care, this touched me deeply.. I really needed those words, thank u shu an❤️🙇♀️
Shu An is an amazing person, for being so brave and putting the things out there, I honestly hope someone felt something from this because I know I did and I really want to thank her for this, her message at the beginning really gave me warmth ❤️❤️❤️
Hey Shu An! Before I even continue watching the actual segment, I just wanted to thank you for your little message in this video. Thank you for reminding all of us that we should not invalidate our own feelings, that all emotions are as real as they are. No one's pain can be compared to another's and we really ought to be kind and gentle to ourselves, as we would to those around us. I hope whoever needs to hear this, that as days go by, your heart feels lighter and even if its gloomy on some days, even if the skies don't clear up the next day, there are still better days ahead of us. ♡
Sending you virtual hug Shu! I am a long time fan of your Tried and Tested Series. Those are empowering words you said that really hit home... I am too are suffering from depression so what you said kinda change my perspective. Thank you! ❤
Thanks a lot for the message Shu an.. I know the feeling and it’s been over 5 years I have been dealing with depression. I feel for you. Hope you feel better. Cuz outsiders won’t feel the same until they are in your shoes...
This made me cry. I was there years ago too and was medicated and through therapy. All of this really helped me regain the positive things in life to look forward to. Thanks for the beginning of this video.
Shu An, you are such a lovely person! Thank you for your kind words, they made me almost cry! It was very much what I needed right now! I have lost my mother and my father in the span of 6 months and now all this situation in the world is not helping me to get through my loss, and I'm taking care of my grandmother who is old and can't walk and I often forget that I have to think about myself and care about myself too
You are really so so precious. Thank you so much for your heartfelt thoughts and for sharing with us your experience with mental illness. You are very very strong, and it's going to inspire many who are also going through the same experiences struggling with this invisible illness. Once again, thank you Shu Ann for sharing with us, being strong and for simply existing so that many others who are going through difficult time, know that they're not alone and that we will all get through them.. Jiayouuuuz everyone!!
I have been batteling depression my whole life. Knowing how bad things can get I am scared for the mental health of everyone affected by the coronavirus.
Statistically people who deal with severe depression their whole life are better at coping than those who have it for a shorter time because you have your entire life to figure out how to cope versus those who suffer from severe depression for s a shorter time they don't know how to cope since it hits them at a bad timeline.
Thank you for that message at the beginning. I’ve been having a really hard time. I have depression and anxiety and I try to tell myself the same things you are saying but hearing it from a fellow sufferer makes me listen more. Thank you. It’s ok to not be ok
I have been hooked to tried and tested ever since i chance upon it a few years back. 1 of the reason is because of you ShuAn, whenever i watch a video i felt as if im meeting a friend for a lepak session, your personality are so welcoming and it gave me a sense of comfort. Thank you!
Thank you for opening up about your experience and encouraging us; and saying it is okay to feel however we feel. I'm sure there are people watching this video who really needed to hear that. And I really want you to know that you inspire so many of us. You are always beautiful inside and out and whatever you may be going through, there will always be people to support you and cheer you on, even when you cannot see them or know their name. Be safe and smile, we are also sending some virtual hugs your way😁😁 Always excited to watch your videos 😆
Its great that came forward to address a great issue that our generation is facing but cannot publicly talk about because of all sorts of reasons.Everyone is important. Even you yourself Shu An should know that you are important and we (your fans) support all your work.
Thank you Shu An. I needed to hear this. I might have depression but I can't afford to get assessed or ever undergo therapy. I just try to overcome it one day at a time. :)
Thanks Shu An for being so genuine with all of us. It’s not easy sharing such a journey to the public and it’s never easy dealing with your own battles. Here’s some virtual hugs back at you for being strong and still being who you are. Much loves ❤️❤️❤️ Love you so much
Thank you for being open about your depression. I can totally relate and it was comforting to hear from another fellow human who understands as well. ❤️
We eat something very alike to 19:33 in India too. It is called pana vellam I think so.But we just eat it just like that. By the way Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feelings with us, many in the world wouldn't be doing it. 😊
Thank u for opening up ur depression. No on would understand the mental illness. I have suffer from major depression, anxiety and high stress levels for a little over 15 years. It is a struggle but I managed to live it day by day
Love it that u r doing this kind of intro as not many youtuber are willing to do that. Incorporating imperfection in life in general, even by showing that u r wearing sweat pants just show that nothing is perfect, we are human and it is ok to be imperfect, to look imperfect. What we are seeing might not be everything there is, life is full of imperfections 👍🏻
Shu An you are so brave to speak out loud about your condition - you are a beautiful and strong lady and your words really brings solace to a lot people in a time like this.
Wow... i see you from the start as burst of sunshine ☀️, who knew behind that beautiful smile and your character makes me happy... it hurts to hear this side of you.. thank you for sharing and for the virtual hug ❤️ we love you always..

It is very relevant not alot of people speak about these feelings! SO PROUD U know it is 👌 U will be 4ever strong Ur mind ❤ & soul be calm! BSAFE BE HEALTHY with this CORONA CRAZYNESS
Hi! I am super thankful to you, your words went deep in my heart, these days I don't feel okay at all, your words gave me strength. Hearing your made me cry I am so so so so thankful to you
Thank you for sharing. I think many times people will think they are alone, but a lot of people with different backgrounds can go through this, especially in times like these. You're strong, you're beautiful and I love your videos.
Hi, Shu An! Just wanna say thank you for being so brave to share your story with us, I admire you a lot. I was diagnosed with depression, anxiety & BPD (borderline) last year and I'm still going through all of them today. I'm glad I got the help that I needed and now I'm managing them with medication & therapies too. Just wanna let you know that you are not alone, you are loved and you matter. Things might not be alright now but it will be fine soon, e will get through this together! Please take care & stay safe, sending lots of love and hugs from Malaysia. xx
You are such a beautiful soul! Thank you for being you ❤️ I am an adult and have been watching for a while. You always manage to make me smile!! You make such a difference in people’s lives. Thank you for sharing ❤️
You were really brave to talk about your situations. Thank you so much for all that you said with your heart. You are right, it's very important to take care about ourselves. A big hug and good luck for everything.
For those that don't know, the hotter the flame, the more wildly coloured it will be. "Red is considered a relatively cool fire, where violet is considered very hot. To the naked eye, the first visible flame is typically a dull red while the hottest flames are white. Red flames can be from 500 to 800 degrees Celsius, while white flames can be 1,600 C or more. It is important to note that color is not always a determinant of temperature, since certain chemicals may burn hotter." Violet is one of the hottest flame colours you can see.. blue is just a couple paces behind in heat output.
Oh! My grandma gives me the black sugar ginger drink whenever I'm suffering from IBS and I have intense bloating (I've had IBS for a long time; since a child) so it's always something so familiar and comforting to me. Sometimes I would just break off a little from the block and suck on it like candy! Always helps to calm my stomach down (because of the ginger).
@Shu Ann the first part of the message was beautiful. You're honestly a ray of sunshine , you are super smart and you conduct yourself really well. I only watch this channel for you because you are so fun to watch and you are beautiful!I love your hair wavy, I'm not sure who was dumb enough to leave a comment about your hair and I'm glad you don't care what they have to say. Thank you for the kind words and keep on doing what you are doing ❤
The chips spiciness kicks in as you finish up the can. but the sian part is its too salty by the time you finish, so your tongue kinda die with it HAHAHAH
Sharon Almighty I eat two pieces of it everyday before I sleep. I’m always so hungry when it reach midnight so I find spicy things to curb my hunger. Somehow I no longer feel hungry after the burn hahaha.
hello shu, (giving you a virtual big hug that you feel like you cant breathe!!) I also thought that if mental illness was more like a physical wound that you can see that you are bleeding as a sign that you are injured, it would've been a big relief! I took a long time struggling between thinking if there's something wrong about me or why can't i just live like i've used to? You are doing great! It definitely took courage to recognize and share this with the world! Sending you lots of love :)
I want to thank you for warming my heart with your words, I was diagnosed with burnout in months now and a few days ago with depression, I work in the hospital so what's happening is just making it worse... after listening to u I think I was really abandoned by my myself because I am only taking care of my patients so I gotta really think about it 🙄
Thank you shu for using your platform to shine a light on depression. Lots of people suffer in silence and takes bravery like yours to create awareness about. Stay strong and know that things will get better. Mwah. Virtual hugs. 🌻
thank you for the message... it really helped me realise how much i’ve been trying to put on a fake front to convince myself that im okay and eventually explode and start feeling like im drowning. slowly but surely, i’ll allow myself to feel these feelings without beating myself up for doing so.
It's okay to not feel okay....... I have been through the same...... Sharing doesn't mean you're weak... Agree with you so much....... Now that I've got better I talk to people who are going through the same so that they don't feel lonely as I did
You are always so positive, i would've never guess that you are battling depression. I agree that its okay to not feel okay. Hope everyone is well in quarantine!
Hi Shu An! I'm a big fan since you started Tried and Tested. Thank you so much for sharing. I was hoping to move back to Singapore early next year because Singapore is home! Even though I'm not a Singaporean, I was born there, spent most of my childhood there, even went for my secondary school in Singapore. I feel like I don't belong in my current place right now. So I have been feeling so down because of this because I can't move back to Singapore given the current situation and I'm already so stressed out about my situation right now. Thank you for sharing and making me feel like I'm not so alone anymore.
Cheer up to us during this tough situation. I love your hair cut Shu An. It looks so pretty :) i dont know in what state you were making this video, but thanks for the story and hope everything will be better (if not, it hope will).
I cried with the opening of the video and then started laughing with the ghost pepper noodles. Love this video. Hope you be okay and take it easy. It was also hard for me to accept that this isn't normal circunstances and to take my time to do everything because I couldn't be as productive as I am normally. The pandemic and social isolation makes it relly hard for people that struggle with mental illnesses. Remember, if all you can do today is take care of yourself that is just enough. ❤️
The potato chips will be spicy after you ate 4 chips. Its kinda difference from the noodle, because the noodles punch your tongue at the first bite. (The ghost pepper series)
Thank you for the heartfelt intro Shu An ❤️ ❤️ I want to try all the food!! Anyway, those lipsticks staying power it’s so impressive, even when you’re eating ice cream it wouldn’t transfer 😱 what is the brand?
