You are processing trauma. You do what you d=need to do to feel better. Don't feel you have to rush. Remember, the fact that you are so affected by this is proof that you are sane and strong. Keep up the good work.
I’m crying when you said the “thank you”. I’m so sorry you’re having this terrible time. It’s okay to sleep, eat carbs and lighten the workload. I’m glad you’re going to meetings and considering calling EAP. What? Mariah Carey? Shella? What’s not to like? I just love Shella!!! She IS absolutely stunning, I am so glad you’re going to this concert! Mimi!!!
Steven, i love the pink flamingo shirt you were wearing. I am hoping the concert raised your spirts a bit. You are such a kind person with a big heart.
Was so cool to think that just a few weeks ago I was walking down that very strip, watching the fountains, Paris etc, all the way from New Zealand… so wish I got to see you when I was there. Very glad you had an amazing time at the concert!! We too had a hard time getting to an Uber, ended up having to go back to Cesar’s palace and catching it from there… we almost missed our flight back to LA lol. Hugs and kisses xx ❤
I love when you film your cats. I think that's the best part seeing them while you adore them. Haven't finished watching yet so going to get back to it. Saving some time to comment after completion - you're amazing. And thank you.
Steven, I know I've said this before, but as I mentioned, I suffer with PTSD from working in emergency services (police). Continue to seek help and support. Here in Australia I emptied a govt building years ago when I saw a briefcase behind a plant outside an office! (This was 8 yrs after retirement!) Triggers are real. Much love xxx
I enjoy your videos, stories snd sense of 7:39 humor! Met you on mikey bags of money and sonny las vegas videos. I talk endlessly too😅... blah blah blah .. Take care of yourself
The vicious beast hidden inside that puff of fluff remains fascinating. Bindi, the cuddliest, huggiest and most clawless (not clueless) cat I've ever had, likes to chase moths, and when she catches one, she'll eat it with an audible vengeance! You're one of the very few non-Dutch who like liquorice!! I grew up with that, probably ruining my kidneys so they run out of life before i do, but we'll see. ;) 10:56 Yes 11:02 No i went to one pop concert in my life. Having been a classical/opera singer, I wasn't into anything else but classical music, until I was 44 and got dragged out of that bubble by my then new love. It was stunning! The professionalism, the voice, the live experience!! Nothing less but amazing! By the way, it was the Art Pop show by The Gaga. 23:27 Oh, hello there! Giggle... Your enthusiasm is contagious!
24:12 you needed this. Like you can tell your spirit needed this. You seem wonderfully reenergize or rather like it was a reset Im going to either go to a show or a museum soon
I adore Mariah Carey! And wow, you got those amazing seats. She too knows you're amazing. Mariah's voice got something rare. Hard to pinpoint the reason. Maybe soul... life experience? IDK. But whatever she has is special. Like Tracy Chapman. Yeah. Just that something about them that they skyrocket over all the others. What an amazing vlog, Steven! And I still got 7 more minutes to go! Thank you. TY TY TY . Really lifted me up. TY.
Your last video was so powerful, respectful, and enlightening. Thank you as for sharing your life with us. You give much more than you even know. Keep taking care of yourself! You are amazing!
If your Airline has a CISM (Critical Incident Stress Mgmt) team, use them. EAP is also good. It helps to talk to someone who understands your job. I do it in my State for 1st Responders after a not so great day at work. Everything about you right now is the result of that traumatic event--completely normal. Love up your cats, cry it out if needed, find a Destruction Room and huck some dishes, let your emotions run thru. A piece of it will always be with you. Desparado in Primm is a way better coaster. Rough but good. Stratosphere is pretty awesome too. Sad the Mirage is in mothballs now. Wishing you a better work week. Breathe thru when the triggers hit--they will.
Hi Steven! In GDL watching your vlog. I managed to get the month of September off. Let me know if you want to get together either in Vegas or Houston. Love to share a buffet with you in Vegas. Let me know. -AA mainline.
My husband works in law enforcement and whenever they experience a traumatic event, they have to take the next two days off and they have to speak to the department counselor (there are other steps they have to take, but it's not relevant to my question). Does your company implement something similar? I can't imagine experiencing something to that degree and then having to work again.
Sometimes eating helps soothe the soul. You gotta do what you need to do to take care of yourself. It makes me sad to hear you talk in a general way about what happened. I'm glad you are going to meetings and hopefully going to call your EAP.
