MENTAL HEALTH ASSUMPTIONS 

Finding out who you are without mental illness, you should definitely make a video on it! Xx

Qualifying as a mental health nurse in September and I’ve learned so much from your videos, I started watching them in 2017 when I started my uni course. I think you’d be amazing in the mental health field good luck for the future 💘

thank you for using your platform to spread awareness about the blm movement. i haven't seen a lot of my fave youtubers talk about it yet and it's very sad to see how silent everyone is being. makes me even happier to be subscribed to you. thank you for having such a kind loving heart. I love you Marie

I’m so proud of you for being 200 days clean!!!! I’m currently still struggling with self harm, but you constantly inspire to get better. You’ve shown me and so many other people that recovery is possible. You’re such an amazing role model and I hope you know how much you mean to all of us :)

I am almost 25 and just about to start uni in September. I lost so many years of education due to my mental health, but I just wanted to remind you (and myself, because lockdown etc really is making me question myself a LOT after triggering a bit of a blip...) that there’s no time limit on it at ALL and if going back to education is what you want, there’s always the chance to do that. But also, just because your friends have degrees etc, doesn’t make you any less valid or worthy than them. I just felt like leaving this comment when you mentioned uni etc at the start of your video :) It’s really nice to see you posting content like this again and I’m always so thankful that you’re able to be so honest and vulnerable with your viewers. Sending lots of love! xxx

That dream catcher is absolutely gorgeous! And I'm glad that you are using your platform to help out with what's going on right now :)

thank you for talking about george floyd !

Aww marie you are such a kind genuine beautiful thoughtful person and I really hope you see that you inspire me so much! Your intro made me cry!! You are so so so so so deserving of everything and you deserve the world! I love you so god dam much!! I also hope pip is okay🥺I think you are such a real talented soul and I love that you aren’t shy to share how you feel it’s such an amazing trait!! Stay strong safe and healthy during thing love💞thinking of you all the time! Luv you baby girl!!🥺💞🌙✨🤧💛🌟🐚🌊🌻🌸⚡️💞😘😘☁️💫🌍

HAHAHA I DIED AT THAT HARRY POTTER REFERENCE!

oh my god my dogs name is Albie...short for Albus...named after Dumbledore. Woah

So proud of you for going 200 days clean! That’s absolutely incredible ❤️

I love you and your videos! I relate to the part where you talk about scars, I spent years wearing nothing but long sleeves, and I've grown to a point where I am comfortable enough to have them on show. I'm not proud but I'm not ashamed either 💜

Definitely relate to the answer to the eating relapse assumption. Quarantine has triggered me so many times, but I keep feeding myself. So yes and no is the only way to really describe it. Thanks for the video Marie!

I am so excited to see this. I was looking forward this moment

Marie you are doing so incredibly well omg you deserve this so much! 🥺 I’ve recently been struggling with my identity too and have been feeling erratic, hyperactive, that I’m annoying everyone, basically just a hot mess, but that’s actually how I figured out I am moving towards recovery!! I am starting to realise this is just who I am without mental illness being the centre of my life. I do find it very uncomfortable though, would love a video on this! Stay safe xx

I would love to see a part 2!!! Thanks for the vid Marie 💛🌻

Hope this doesn’t sound silly but you made me see something I’ve never considered before- when you said not to strive to be the person you were before as they have the capacity to be broken. Wow. Thank you. I think I’ll hold that with me forever ❤️

So many yeses to your response to finding urself after illness, especially w borderline! Honestly explained it exactly how i would. Starting with just likes and dislikes is even a struggle when you feel like you are a shell. Thank you x

Ive been struggling alot recently with my mental health for the first time in a little while and i really hope i can recover the way u have , your inspirational xx

Can I just say... I’m really struggling atm with feeling like people don’t understand fans struggling to be honest with people. I know how much people worry and it’s scary to open up. I like to tell people what they want to hear basically. You are so so so inspiring. I’m not sure if you realise but god you’ve help me so much. Even if it’s someone just to listen to and kind of relate to. I love you so much and hope you are actually doing well!!! Xxxx

Your amazing your videos have been making me feel so much better while I'm on section 2 in a physiciatric hospital, but now I'm in. Segregation being monitored by two nurses, you look amazing BTW xxxx

Your super-openness is always refreshing to see and definitely not worth dwelling on the loss of years. Keep bringing it ✊🏼

Marie I want you to know I am in the same place as you: all of my friends have a degree and I feel like I have nothing to show either. I hope that you knowing you’re not alone in this feeling can maybe bring some relief to you just like hearing you say that brought me relief. You are never alone in your feelings.

That point you made about becoming a new person not the one you were before is one I've never heard before. But that is a really good way of thinking about it. I would like to see a video on this. You could call it something like 'life after mental illness; knowing yourself' or 'getting to know yourself again' or something like that. Great video!!❤❤❤

When you talk about not striving to be the person before as they allow themself to be broken, that really hit me. I’ve not been “sick” with my mental health for since last year, and part of me really misses being sick, I had emotions back then. But nowadays I don’t get upset and I’m not emotional ever. Thinking back to when I was unwell is something I don’t do and it’s all just a blur. But for a long time I wanted to be unwell again, so I could feel something. Thinking about the future and how I could become unwell again Doesn’t scare me as I think it should. Im trying to become a better person for myself.

You're such an inspiration. Would love to see a part 2!!! xxx

Thank you for this video. Not only you educate us but you also have helped some people, I'm sure of it. I hope that making this kind of video is like a little therapy for you too. Keep your head high and keep on fighting, you'll get there. We are all with you. Love you !!! Had a depression myself, but got over it( i hope) tried too cut myself once, but it did hurt too much so did not do it again, subbed a while ago and still watching your older videos witch i love very much, you are a great person.

Your videos inspired me to start my own channel about mental health but no one ever asks me questions. I would love to do a assumptions video

Marie I honestly didn’t think I my respect for you could get any higher, I respect you so much. But when I saw lana del Rey in your intro I jumped in excitement, just thought I’d share lmao

I love when you post videos ❤️❤️ another fantastic video Marie!! Well done 🥰

So excited to watch this😄 love you’re videos, you’re such an inspiration xx

My favourite time of day is when you upload 😎 So excited to watch this- love you marie and your my biggest inspiration ❤️x

Dont worry Marie u will become successful I'm 19 in 12 days I have no gcses, never had a job , basically mental health took over my life. U are such an inspiration to me and many other s stay strong

I’ve been struggling with mental health issues lately and I’ve been having arguments with my best friends over it and I’ve felt so lonely, watching this makes me realise there is people out there I can relate to and these videos just make me feel so welcome and I feel like I’m not alone, keep up the amazing work 💖

Thank you, Marie!

marie, you're such an amazing person. You're kind, you're honest, and you're so strong. I'm currently dealing with some things regarding self-harm, depression, and anxiety, and quarantine isn't helping at all. I can only hope to grow up to be half the person you are. You push me to keep living everyday because your story reminds me that things can get better and things will get better. 💗 thank you for being amazing!

thank you for using your platform!! I love you so so much Marie ❤️❤️

for the algorithm: Thank you so much for making this video! It's so good, interesting, and amazing!

GENIUS ... and honest. Thank you.

Also I’m so glad you feel like that and have managed so long without self harm!! That is amazing 200 days!!!! Wow so proud. I’m 4 weeks tomorrow and having urges tonight and you literally just made me not want to do it and actually try and distract myself! WOW that’s all I can say...💗💗you’re a blessing

As someone who’s from America thank you for using your platform 🖤🖤

Marie I absolutely love your videos 💕

Whoever you are, you are deserving of all the love and riches of the world

Part 2 defo!!! Maybe call the video ‘finding yourself again’? 💕

You're stunning! Inside and out! 💖

Good for you and congratulations on all your successes. I would love a part two. I would also love to see more of Albie. There’s a channel with dogs reactions to various things (tucker budzyn) and I feel like Albie is soooo cute and just the right bit of weirdo to be hilarious

Awesome answers. Massive props for these. You are a champ and wise beyond your years.

It’s so nice seeing you doing good, this video put the biggest smile on my face🥰

Please dont worry about were your at in life right now I'm 23, I was out of school a lot due to mental health then left college twice for mental health and life issues and didnt go to uni, I thought I was going to end up working in the shop I got my first job in for ever there is not anything wrong with working in a shop it's just not personally were I thought my life would go but I've now I'm in a job I'm happy with with a salary and eveything and it may not be the most amazing paid job but I'm helping people.

But I hope that RU-vid brings you the opportunitys you deserve as well 💕

Ur such an amazing human being, im glad ur back, stay healthy and take care of yourself the best u can, we love you and we are here for you🖤

Thank you

Hi Marie, idk if you read the comments but I’m currently without Instagram so I couldn’t dm you :/ Well I just wanted to thank you. For the bottom of my heart. It’s currently really hot where I live (summer is starting I guess) and for the first time I wore a skirt and t shirt in front of my family. I had to have >the talk< with my parents and it was SO hard. I was like “oh I’ll tell him after dinner” “I’ll tell him tomorrow...” and I watched your videos for quite a lot of time now but I came across one about sh in the summer (I don’t remember the title). You specifically said “there’s no right time, you just have to do it” and I’ve heard it from other people but hearing it from you changed something in my head. Marie you changed my way of seeing myself, you changed my mind, the way I dress, my anxiety is lower now that I told them. Sometimes hearing certain things from someone who went through the similar situation makes a huge difference. And you are *that* person to me. Thank you isn’t enough. ❤️

so excited for this

Loved the intro xxxx

I love Albie's cameos

Love you Marie xx

my favourite notification ♥️

So proud of you so many days clean ❤

amazing video idea thank u xx

You are absolutely amazing keep doing what your doing gorgeous what an inspiration ♥️ wow honestly you keep me going with your videos with how truthful and honestly you are

I’m so proud of you. Remember you are worth it,you are loved and you are enough. Keep fighting. being 200 days clean is something to be so proud of. self harm and eating disorders are such a big thing. But not relapsing when you have been triggered. I’m proud ❤️ and you should be too! X lotta love x

love it

Please don't ever be ashamed of your mental health . its not your fault and your doing your best even if you relapse the people who love and truly care will try to understand and never leave you. I admire your strength your a beautiful person marie .💯💯💞💞 love Yea girl .

💜💜

The Harry potter reference I'm crying

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

yes!!!!

Clicked so fast🥺

love those lights! you're so pretty too

You posted an Instagram story the other day about a nurse saying something awful about your scars.. It really affected me because if someone said that to me, i think it would crush my already thin confidence. I was wondering if you made a complaint about this nurse? You dealt with it so well, but I still think this nurse needs to be reprimanded for saying it

I love your videos so much I love you sweet angel 🥺❤️ these videos really help me

i love you you're stunning and such an inspiration

❤️

Keep posting vids marie x

so proud of you

Talk about getting better/being a better version of yourself please!

this video is so lovely

My eating disorder is horrible, will go about my routine and then I'm losing weight and blaming myself. It's so horrible, everything isn't right though.

Please make another video about finding yourself! Maybe you could talk about ‘the void?!’

If the majority of people watching are supportive, or indifferent, then you are mentally healthy. "TRUST IN YOURSELF" You have the power.

"Live in the moment: You are very strong and intelligent to even try to make a video and post it. YOU ARE A SUPER HERO. (believe it)

you look unreal in this video, im so glad you're here to stay xxxx

Love yourself ❤️

Albus ❤️
