Living with high functioning anxiety 

Thanks for acknowledging the overwhelming anxiety. Big or small it can overrun your system. You’re loved and appreciated on purpose!

It's always fascinating how youtubers can capture their moments of vulnerability, anxiety, ADHD and depression perfectly with multiple camera angles set up beforehand.

I knew this video was going to be a better help sponsored video lol

this whole video feels like a commercial for better help. The feeling of peace and love you looking for can't be obtained by getting material things, achievements, or a relationship. Creating another goal and achieving it won't change anything, At the end of the day those things are irrelevant if u don't have peace in your heart and understand what you are.

Hey, Tina. I hope that if you’re reading this, you’ll probably love this. I have depression and when I watch your videos, it takes all of my depression away. And also, I work in a coffeeshop as well. So, I understand how you are feeling. Thank you, Dooby. You’ve made my day.

No shade Dooby but when opening your restaurant, I thought it’d be more homy food, like the one you’ve always shared for us. I feel like your restaurant is amazing but there’s too much fancy going on that requires more. Do you, don’t hire these fancy chefs, cook what we’ve always loved to see! Make it fun for your self. Bring that joy back. Much love dooby 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶

We live in an era where everyone always wants to be productive and do more to chase ‘happiness’ but I think a lot of us already had that but just didn’t realise it. You looked so happy when you were cooking and making RU-vid videos - sometimes simplifying our lives and goals can make us happier too and focus on the things we truly love. Owning and running this restaurant- is it something you truly want deep inside Tina? Or are they external factors and society pressures of doing more/expanding your brand =more successful making you want to continue this?

Dear Tina, I have been watching since 2 years & admiring the content in silence but been worrying for you lately.I really hope your current relationship is much happier than what meets the eye. As going by your videos it is full of red flags. I have never seen a kind glance, a loving gesture,any encouraging words from Mr ☔️. You worship him & he totally gaslights you. An otherwise strong,independent, happy girl becomes a wet cat in his presence. This anxiety & imposter syndrome lately in you is all result of how he treats you. When you utter a word in restaurant meeting he looks at you as if you don’t matter or only to give some sharp retort. Feels like he is only with you to run a restaurant,get his feet wet as prep to open something better,bigger on his own. He might be great but you too are plentiful talented & being blind in love giving him platform (last vid) on your established channel. I would say better chalk out what your share, role & responsibility in restaurant is & command respect.Motivate yourself by thinking even if he walks out of the venture one day you should be self suffice, don’t make the restaurant all about him. As for doubting yourself as leader, not many are born that way majority learn on the job. You go girl! ( please don’t take this constructive feedback otherwise, I have been sincerely worrying for you lately over few ideas)

all we can do is try our best sometimes. keep your head up dooby, we're all behind you cheering you on!

Has anxiety...... travels to the US for a month while running a restaurant per parents paid for LOLLLLL

Yeah... mental health... something all influencers suddenly struggle with nowadays. But you what will help you? Betterhelp! Right...🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Tina i’ve been following your channel for almost 2 years now and there was a light in you that is gone in the past year. I cant help but notice that you started changing and dimming down ever since kevin moved to korea. Im not saying this to be a hater but it seems like you invested so much in the restaurant and this relationship that now it feels wrong and you want to get out but feel stuck becuz so much is at stake. Been there before and i recognize it and it sucks. Wish you the best babe and im praying for your mental health ❤ Never let anything stand in the way of your happiness and lovely free spirit

oof that last interaction with Kevin, damn. I think my room froze over.

As a young adult who is 2 yrs into her career I can relate to what you’re going through. I am an art educator and last year was working my ass off at a job that was just draining me, but I knew it was what I loved and kept going. I got a new position at a different school, started therapy and prioritizing self-care, and finally feel like I am able to enjoy my life. What I am trying to say is that yes, right now you might be feeling exhausted and defeated but if you keep working (on yourself just as much as your job) you will get to that place that you’ve been dreaming of! Wishing you all the best & know your fans believe in you ❤

When Tina talked about her anxiety after morning run, she put the camera in different angles to shoot. I love this. It's like you have different listeners for your own story and they will offer you different feelings, viewpoints, sooth and calm you in different ways. It also means you yourself can look at the situation in various angles, so please don't get caught in the situation and sink alone. Tina, you are very honest to yourself, down to earth and funny, I wish you can always stay true that way, have time to live, work, exercise and love.

14:52 he wanted to say something else before he saw the camera. He wasn’t in a good mood 🙂

Wtf did I just watch? Good lord… welcome to adulthood.

Capitalizing off of mental problems and peoples vulnerabilities is so fucking lame. Hope the money was worth it.

I struggle just like this. I have severe social anxiety. The only times it doesn't exist is when i am working. When I'm working as a cancer nurse, I'm completely different. Nobody I know would recognize me. I'd do anything to make my patients smile. Anything to make their day a little better. I trueley think doing things we are passionate about drives you. It's all about figuring out what motivates you. Otherwise life gets overwhelming fast

if you go out setting up multiple camera angles to record yourself in public, you definitely have no clue what anxiety actually feels like..

The rawness to the vlogs accompanied by the simple moments of happiness is always… *chef’s kiss* Hope your mental health gets better Tina❤

Every single person on earth should have to work manual labor jobs for a year. It would shift your perspective massively. You are living a life of absolutely luxury. Be thankful for what you have.

This is like some ultra narcissism sociopathy in action

Interesting that she originally titled the video "guilty" and then changed it.... just read about the eviction situation...

Sometimes I feel part of depression and anxiety is telling you something in your life isn’t aligned to your soul , write, journal, listen to what’s the darkness?..

Lying about mental illness now because it's trendy and good for your brand 🙄

OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS SEEN BY ME FROM GRACE OF GOD ALMIGHTY~

Of course you cant work, when youre busy filming yourself from 10 angles while taking a note in your notebook.

High functioning anxiety is not a thing. Ur just not overjoyed 24/7, like literally every other person, ever

I could say you are the best videomaker in here, thank you for acknowledging your fears and anxiety and taking about it out loud! we are so proud of you and you are capable to do everything. just give yourself time!

This entire video is a sponsorship

Thank you for posting this. These past years have been such a struggle for me and you sharing your experience has been super comforting 💞

I definitely felt she was losing her confidence when she was uncomfortable cooking for the team in the restaurant.

What you're experiencing is normal. This level of anxiey means you're doing just fine. Keep going and dont stop.

Question, how has your relationship with Kevin been affected by the restaurant? You both have very different roles and work long hours. How do you prioritize time with each other outside of work, when do you have time to just be with each other outside of work? 😊

Dooby, from the looks of it you are surrounded by good people. May that help you navigate tough times 🙂 Mad respect for how much you've been juggling lately - hope you continue to find chances to decompress now and then!

hi Tina, as an older person, I can say that what you are experiencing is pretty normal. It is really important to take care of our mental health at all times so that we do not get into a rut of emotion. You are an inspiration to many young and old alike.

your tires look dangerously bald - get them changed if so!

Guilt, anxiety, loss of appetite, socially withdrawn, lack of energy to get out of bed, no feeling of purpose….I’ve been there and it’s called depression. Burn out from a high stress job and no work life balance. You’ve got to find the balance or it will progressively affect your health and relationships in the most necrotic way.

Saw the day in the life of ur man, hope hes not the reason you feel this way. Surround urself with people who give you good vibes dooby

The capacity of Kevin to be able to do everything just fucking amazes me lmaooo

Rest is productive too. Thanks for the reminder to get outside. I need to do that more often or at least start my day by doing so. A change of perspective and a place to just be and be is helpful. I hope you are gentle with yourself through your difficulties. 🫂✨🌤️🌷🌱

A poor man with anxiety is different from a rich man with anxiety. They are both anxiety but the other one is helpless in terms of treatment.

lmao an ad for betterhelp

Watching this video makes me want to give you a big hug. You deserve the world. When I have anxiety I watch your videos, so I wish I could give something back

As much as I enjoy the mija seoul videos, these kind are my favourites. It’s just the chill vibe of Tina doing her thing and being so relatable and open. It feels so natural and not staged, these kind of vlogs are so rare to find nowadays! Thanks Tina for always trying, keep your head up!

Kevin has been carrying the restaurant on his back and handling everything girl what are you anxious about

Any day with a new dooby video counts as a winner to me, and FYI it is a subwoofer in the rear of the Audi, probably from a package upgrade but also lots of vehicles don't have spares anymore for cost and weight reduction.

Oh dooby am feeling the same here, you’re not alone

Time for a vacation by the ocean with no internet…you deserve it and you’ll feel renewed and be able to savor your growth and success!

the sponsor ad had me ded

a journal and/or a quiet room to yell 15 different kinds of expletives in 3 different languages is a great way to get rid of all bad emotions

Tina you are amazing and incredibly hardworking! It can be easy to forget this when you are surrounded by other amazing people and sometimes you just need a little reminder that you're also one of them! Lots of love 💕

omg did kevin move out?

stay strong queen. stay awesome

Dear Tina , it’s very normal to doubt yourself when starting on a new path /journey . No one starts out a complete professional/master / knowing it all . Gordon Ramsay , for example , was once a self-doubting trainee before his skills and work began to speak for themselves . There are other more relatable examples to give I’m sure , given that your line of work-your interests , is a mix of things, but that is a great example in and of itself I’m sure . If anyone makes you doubt yourself for being where you are at in your journey now , then they are fools . Doubt is natural and finding the wisdom and strength to focus on the bigger picture and overcome these little moments in between - moments of doubt and friction - is what will determine the growth of your path . Wishing you and Kevin the best as partners , entrepreneurs, creators , chef(s) and so on .

The cautionary tale isn't of the egg and the eggplant...I'm writing this because I come here for the Dooby and want this to be a fortifying experience for you, not enervating so early on in its inception. There's being idealistic and there's being realistic when friends or lovers go into a venture together. It can seem like a great situation. However, as we all have seen, sometimes the relationship can become fractured due to the stresses of running a business, feeling responsible for others' livelihoods, financial pressures, lack of free time or mental space, lack of intimate time when all you did was get to know each other better. I sincerely wish you great success with Mija Seoul, but like other posters have mentioned, the body language between you and Kevin (and his tone) is worrisome. He's gotten his dream of being a chef in his own kitchen of his own restaurant. Your chutzpah and ability to navigate the codes/language of Korea got him that, quite speedily. He definitely wouldn't have been able to do that on his own, not even in Denmark. Again, that was enabled by your community, your YT ad dollars, your ability to source the wares in Seoul, etc. I just want to stress that sooner than later, you will need to hammer out the legal stuff with him (a la post-nup). I'm not against Kevin, he is quite talented, and he'll be fine. Just, don't let your personality and pursuits be subsumed.

Crying from the start until 1:16 minute if the video. What got me was the “Dragging myself out” I am a business/cafe owner and it gets overwhelming too. Sometimes you feel like you don’t want to work but you also have to think about your staff and handling all of the finances and bills. It piles up, work and family responsibility. Hope we all make it!! Fighting !!

did she broke up or something?

you're so lucky you have a boyfriend who can do/fix anything! God bless this couple

The mood swings, the anxiety, the feeling of not being productive enough - it's all burnout. Ive been burned out before eith these wxact same feelings and its so hard to escape on your own. If you dont have a counselor/therapist, you should look into it before you get too deep into the hole. Much love, hope you start feeling better soon!

God bless the guys like Kevin, not many of them left...

Your videos bring us sorry, happiness, and just being.

Also, I recommend taking courses on leadership and such. On the outside it probably sounds cool that you’re so young and have your own restaurant but people will be depending on you so to gain knowledge in things you are inexperienced in is important

HAVE GREAT AND CHEERFUL LIFE, UPS AND DOWNS ARE PART OF LIFE........REALLY DOBBY YOUR VIDEOS ARE SO CALMING.... ❤❤❤❤

Kevin working his ass off, as always, and she's allowed to take her time to rest, focus on her fEeLiNgS and work him to the bone. The guy fell into a trap. Unfortunately good people like him tend to be taken advantage of. I hope you come to realise that you need to replace your own labor with staff, and give Kevin a rest.

Dish eggplant omelette is known as “tortang talong” in the Philippines. I would submerge the eggplant with the scrambled egg first then pour into the pan to fry. Its great with ponzu (calamansi/lemon and soy sauce) 😊

you're totally feeling impostor syndrome and it's something we all feel and a part of what makes us human. No one person is capable of doing everything, just surround yourself with good people you can trust, who support you and have skills that you might be lacking and release some of that control. Trust and you got this ✨

Like you've said in the past Tina, you either force yourself through it as you try not to fall into that darkness, or you simply fall right into it. It's all up to you in a sense. Stay strong!

“Wtf I didn’t know my car had this” exactly my reaction the first time I had a flat tire and had to look in the back for the spare.

Im so sick of everyone hiding behind the word "anxiety" lmao. Lame and cringe.

it makes me feel a lot better about myself when I see people I can relate to… thank you for this

I’ve had awful anxiety for as long as I can remember and you know what helped A LOT! Cutting out coffee completely… sounds crazy but give it a try and see! Glad you were able to get out of the house ❤

isn't betterhelp like really bad

Her bf should be ashamed for coercing her into opening the restaurant she’s 23 n he’s 31. So shameful AND the two assistant chef tk n the girl is very very sus when her bf was asked how they knew each other.

She's got that "I come from a rich family" vibe.

I love Dooby’s lifestyle vlog ❤

Is there a vipassana in korea?? Much better than this app dooby..

Thank you for uploading videos still, despite how stressed and busy you've been lately. Your last reel also was a real breath of fresh air ❤️

Hi Tina

I respect how doobydobap successfully shows lifes seasons and anxiety and depression. Depression and anxeity doesnt just happen once, and even after you do something fufilling and something that you are passionate doesnt mean you wont experience depression. A lot of tv shows show depression as this one time thing, you have it and then you get over it but really it s just a cycle. Dooby also shows how success and passion doesnt mean that you are satisfied. Everything in life is a cycle and it doesnt follow one plan or one spreadsheet, and struggles of life never end no matter how happy you think you are and no matter how much you think that you have found yourself. I personally am in a hard season as well and there isnt one quick solution that makes the pressure and anxiety go away, and it also doesnt mean that I am not happy with life or my plans and my passion, i am just figuring things out. So Tina, or anyone reading this know that you are not alone and know that like every season of struggles, this one will leave and fade. Life is hard, it is supposed to be, but like a good war, life is a battlefield and there are two ways that you can leave the battle. You can give up and dwell on your defeat and mistakes, or you can give it all you got and fight and win. Please for me, lets win this war.

She will sell the restaurant in an few year

Ur restaurant food looks lovely but a little too fancy.. Make something homely regular korean stuff.... I thought that was the whole purpose right? Homely... Focus on that and have fun.. Take care❤️

I am sorry you are feeling the way you are. I hope it gets better soon!

It's sooo good to see you at your old place/home. Feels like I missed the familiarity too! 😭💛

I admire how you still keep on filming and being filmed when you’re so overwhelmed with the tight schedules already .. you present the real side of you and we hope to go through this tough time with you just like how your videos are going through tough times with me now~~~ like how your videos always put us at ease~~~

You got this... I've lived with anxiety and depression for over 50 yrs... so you got this... trust in self...family...friends... can't wait to visit your restaurant.. will be in Korea in Aug.

I also have anxiety, mostly high functioning, so I get it. Some Days it is hard, but all we can do is try our best, sending good vibes. ✨

The tricky thing about leading people is it takes a little bit to figure out your own style. I didn’t figure out my leadership style until 10 years later. What i advise is while you continue to be yourself, listen to your people, and adjust your style as you go. Apologize when needed. The fact that you are aware that you are not sure what you’re doing, is a good thing. That means you’re self aware. There are tons of shitty boss who do not even asses themselves like that.

Amazing what physical activity with a reconnection in nature can internally ignite! Keep kicking ass :)

Loved seeing you back home and cooking, and also that somebody else is also going through what I am going through. Best wishes 🎉

The only way to release anxiety is to trust in something.

Grounding helps... barefoot on the grass or lay down on the grass. you can have a blanket but all the comfy rubber shoes and boots prevent us from grounding. It's a big thing for our well being.. I was just reminded of it and I went out in my socks in the middle of ( a mild ) winter and stood on the gravel in my driveway for 5 minutes and what a difference. Getting out in nature alone is Huge! xo

Kevin "why so serious?" I think he should learn how to be funny with you

Everytime I see your videos you inspire me to get out of bed even if it’s a small task I complete. Just know you make an impact on people. Battling depression isn’t easy but you make it a little easier for me.

I hope everything is alright with you and Kevin, your last video was a bit rough. I sincerely pray that you work things out 🌹

I know exactly how it feels so your feeling are completely valid. Have you ever tried getting blood test done? To see if you are deficient in vitamin d? That could also be a contributor. When I was going through super bad anxiety & depression, I sought out a holistic doctor who did blood test and found I was vitamin d deficient so I had to start taking it. There were other factors. Like making sure your gut is ok because everything stems from your gut. I'm no way a professional but that's stuff that I found out from my doctor. Doesn't hurt to check. Don't forget to change up your scenery sometimes. If you are caught up in the same routine all day everyday, it can definitely bring you to depression. You are surrounded by good people. Never be afraid to ask for help. Sometimes we can't do it alone. Praying for better day ahead 🙏🏽♥️You are not alone.

Lol idk why I liked that you left in the sneeze

Tbh I've missed these type of vlogs

its always a good day when dooby posts
