REACTING TO "A WEEK WITH A MENTAL ILLNESS 

That "A week with mental illness" was SO helpful last year when I was struggling highkeeey

Can we take a moment to appreciate that youtube let her monetise her videos again !!! Yayyyyy

Jeez, that video was one of the first ones I watched of you. You were the first person on social media I found that wasn't afraid to show off her scars and not be afraid of what other people thought living with a mental illness. Since then, you have helped me to grow my confidence in showing my own skin and made me feel more comfortable dealing with my struggles. I know you worry that your channel won't grow, but I want you to know that you have definitely changed my life for the better, and whether you have 53k subscribers or 53 million subscribers, I will still enjoy your content and remember what you have taught me. Thank you Marie. Keep up the amazing work. You are seriously helping a lot of us out 👍❤️

Thank you for talking about how when you're so unwell skills don't help because you can't use them. So important for certain mental health professionals to understand.

This is shocking. I was going through a psych episode during the same time and my sense of time and memory is so fucked it feels like this video was both a month ago and like 5 years ago. Wow. So proud of you for getting it together💕💕 you've genuinely helped me through it

Thank you for always being so honest, seeing how far you’ve come is incredible and I hope you’re so proud of yourself. But don’t feel like you have watch old videos that may bring your mood down, especially at the moment when you’re doing so well. I hope this doesn’t come across as patronising I just wouldn’t want you to risk your mental health for ‘content’, we love all Marie content no matter what it is xx

I was so worried about you at this time I’m so glad your doing so much better 🥺💜

Can we please make this a series it’s so inspiring and helpful to see how far you have come x love u so so much so proud of you 💕💕💕

I can’t believe this was a year ago + I remember this video like it was yesterday I’m so glad you’re doing so much better now !!

so proud of how far you’ve come, you’re such an inspiration 💗

I remember feeling very concerned watching this, but I didn't even know what to comment that could even remotely help. It's so nice to see the difference in you now and I'm so happy that you're doing so well. So much love to you, you're very brave to be able to watch this back, it only proves you're in a much better place💕💕

This video really shows how far you’ve come and wow I’m so proud of you ⭐️ you give me so much strength and courage and you inspire me so much :) I really appreciate you for doing this video so tysm xx love you marie ❤️

you should be so proud of yourself Marie!! you can see that you’ve come so far:) I’ve watched this video so many times as ngl it’s been very helpful in a weird way when I’m struggling to know I’m not the only one!! but I’m so happy for you that you’re in a better place now, just goes to show recovery really can happen✨ lots of love always 💗💗💗

marie🥺bless your heart your such a genuine kind soul and i’m so glad your still here and fighting we are and always will be here for you and we all love you so much💞💞

This was one of my favourite videos of yours. Thank you for being so genuine, lots of love xxx

My episodes are almost exactly like this... it’s almost relieving to me to know I’m valid, and that I’m not alone (although I of course don’t like to see you upset either). thank you so much for sharing and raising awareness 💕 you are so strong and you truly are helping people like me. We got this.

i am a bit late sorry!!! you are such an inspiration to me to get over my many issues. i am going to be starting trauma focused therapy in the next year and i'm really hoping i can combat my issues. i first found your channel in my first psych admission (two years ago in october!) and you helped me feel less alone. seeing you come as far as you have has inspired me to carry on with therapy and meds even though it's been many years so far. i'm hoping to try and be better within the next four years so i can go to uni and be able to cope. i relate with the voices things. i get really scared of them and they tell me i'm not allowed to tell people. it's like trying to not get in trouble with people in your own head and that's hard! you are so strong i aspire to be like you one day. and i'm going to help people not in the same way as you but i am aspiring to help people. i am going to be a police officer and i am going to help victims like the police have helped me. thank you so much for being you ilysm x

I always watch Marie when I’m struggling. Not to trigger myself or anything like that but to prove to myself that you can get better. That I’ll be okay and there is life after. She her videos really helped me get through at one point and if I feel that I may be slipping or just struggling I sit down and watch Marie and her amazingness. Thank you so much Marie you are truely amazing!!

It's so weird looking back on dark times when you're well again and seeing yourself be like "I'm doing good right now" and you're like.... sis.... Just goes to show how low our standards for ourselves get before we know better xx

THIS IS MADNESS! I was just thinking how I’d love for you to react to old videos again as the last one you done was so interesting to see your thoughts etc on how things have changed for you. I can’t believe it😂 anyway great video once again🥰love you xx

so happy youre doing better now im so proud love u so much marie 🥺❤️

I've only found you recently, but find your content very helpful. Impressive to see how you have come so far 💜

Appreciated this video, love to you always Marie ❤️

I love how dad came in and started talking shit... but in like a caring way haha ❤️

I love watching your videos! Thank you for coming back and explaining how you felt in that video and saying more of what exactly was happening. I liked that. You being so open about your anxiety and depression and getting the help you need makes me feel like it’s ok to need help and get help! I’m 19 and I deal with bad anxiety and have for years and I’m just now seeing a psychologist for it the last 5 months or so. She is the only one I tell anything and everything. I just discovered you the other night because I was in bed and I can never sleep at night so I started looking up anxiety and depression story videos on RU-vid and found your video STORYTIME: My mental health with pictures. And I have been watching your videos since, I have watched a few others including this one I’m currently watching and I will continue to watch! 😊 seeing you in such a bad place a few years ago. I felt so sad for you. Seeing your videos now you look soooo much healthier,happier and better! And it’s makes my heart happy for you! and seeing you doing better let’s me know that I will not feel like this forever and things will get better! And is something to remember on those nights I’m sitting in bed at 3 in the morning thinking I don’t want to be here anymore. I thank you for you mental health videos! And all of your videos! And your little funnys throughout your videos ( like your “Where’s my boobs” “ I can’t see them! “ 😂 in this video) always make me laugh and have a tiny smiling happy moment and I appreciate those! I also loved the clip of your video where your dad came in and put a little input in on your rewatch of your video too! I don’t tell my parents anything about my mental health and I’m kinda decided on my own and I’m getting the help I need and going through everything on my own and alone. And with my psychologist now that I have her. So I think I may of enjoyed that clip because of that.

Im wi happy for you! You can see how much better you are doing and how hard you have worked to get where u are at now!! Xx

I am so proud of you Marie! I cried laughing because when you showed the moon drawing we made eye contact through the screen and it felt like we were old friends. Ugh I love you.

I only started watching you around April.. I fell in love with you once I found you and I'd literally watch a video of yours a day.. When I watched that one my heart hurt.. You are such a beautiful, beautiful soul and I genuinely adore you. Words cannot describe how much support and love you're giving me. I'm so grateful that you've made it out of that dark place because this world would be a little bit more gloomy without you. Sending all the hugs, love you Marie! 💗

It’s amazing you managed to film and edit a video when you were so ill bless you-is a testament to your strength ❤️ 💪🏼 I hope you continue to stay in a good place for a very long time 🙏🏼😘

It’s so weird because on paper we’re so different with our struggles (me being diagnosed with bipolar and ocd), we should have nothing in common but I find myself relating to you so purely and it’s so nice to watch your vids🥰

You are so strong Marie 🖤 thank you for everything you do 💕

You’ve done so well and have come so far. I’m so proud of you always, love u so much ❤️

Your dad made me lol 😂 but sooooo happy for you that you’ve come so far and are doing SO much better!

Love ur dad hahahaha. You’ve come so so far babes! Big up recovery innit 👏🏼👏🏼

so so proud of you marie. ALWAYS. so happy to see how well you’re doing💕also where’s your white dress from you’re wearing !!!!💕💕

This video actually helped so much and made me feel not alone so thank you so much❤️

So happy to see you doing so well, you’re glowing❤️💞💕✨

Lots of love xo I remembering watching the video when, you uploaded it. I was so ill myself and, didn't register how ill. At the moment you were xo 🥺♥️

Thank you so much for sharing this with us, it was incredibly brave❤ If you ever wonder if RU-vid is worth it, remember this.. I've just lost my sweet furbaby, his name was Snickers he would have been 17 this coming November. I have PTSD and treatment resistant depression . He was my best friend. I'm so lost and crushed. It's hard to put into words, its agony. My point being is listening to your videos is the only thing bringing me some comfort. It's like being surrounded in darkness and your videos are a bit of light, reminding me things can get better. Much love and thanks from the Midwest❤❤

so happy when I saw this notification, I loveeeee these kinds of videos

Your makeup is so nice x Also hope your doing well. love your channel xxx

Looks like you have come a really long way . Well done !:) i know its not easy when you suffer with bpd but yeah just keep living for the day and keep doing you :)

after all you've been through, you look SO beautiful STILL!! GO YOU!!

My biggest inspiration. You helped me through SO much. I’m like you now and very much mostly recovered but was struggling when you were. Love u 🤍🤍🤍🤍

love you girlll!!!💕💕💕

Had to drop everything I was doing to watch the new video ❤️❤️

This was very insightful. Even though it was distressing to see you watch yourself in a bad time in your life but it was hopeful

hope you’re doing well!!

i am so so proud of you and so glad that you are here today

it's amazing to see how much better you are now

This video must have been hard for you to make but thanks for it anyway. You look like a mum looking down on her younger self. You've grown up so much even though it's only a year! At the time when I watched this video I didnt even think anything of it like that you were particularly struggling or anything. I just thought every week was like that for you. I'm so glad it isn't. Love you so much 💖

Thanks for helping me feel not alone.❤️❤️❤️

This has helped massively love u

Its scary to realise you were in this dark place 1 and a half years ago but it is also sort of empowering that you get out of dark places like that! (Of course not just overnight sadly..) Sounds a bit weird maybe but it makes me hopeful that you are now glowing girl!! Keep up the good work ❣️

Sometimes I wish I documented my struggles with mental illness. But the things I have documented I end up deleting when I look back, because like you said, it’s not nice to see. Glad you’re on a better place 💜

This was so hard to watch, I'm so glad ur doing better now tho ❤️

I remember watching this, i am so glad that you are doing better now Marie really ❤️❤️❤️

Your videos are so high quality you deserve more views

I would love a friends perspective on you during this time like an interview with Pip or something if they are comfortable and you are! 💗

Love! Came from your insta story😅🥰

I really know the thoughts about the world or the things around you not being real. I’ve had that thinking so bad since 2 years as well. It got better with time but often I still get thoughts pop up like that in my mind, even questioning if I’m really real, if I can trust myself and the world I’m in and I get scared. I push those thoughts away quickly nowadays and think about something else cause it the end, you don’t find answers for things like that, you can just accept how it is. Even if you don’t have a purpose in life - which is the next thing I often think about. And death and what happens after and all these things. When you get lost in those thoughts about the world, life, yourself and stuff like that, it gets really scary. I think you have to be really grounded for those thoughts not being overwhelming.

Marie by what I have read online face puffiness is just a common side effect from strong medications but don’t take my word for it ⭐️💓

i’m so proud of you babe

I love your videos! You are so funny and beautiful, inside and out! ❤❤❤

So proud Marie to see how far you've come but I've got to say I did laugh when you went 'that fucking wall' x

love you x

Question: how did you get over or like overcome the thoughts of having no future or feeling like there’s no point if I don’t have a purpose on this earth? Btw it’s really amazing to see how much better you’re doing now then you were then :))

I think you should do a video with your dad reacting to some of your old videos x

Clicked so fast!!!!

love you marie💞💞

I love your dad, he’s so awesome 😎

Completely relate to what you went through though, I went through a period where I just couldn't sleep at all what was it for you do you think that caused the insomnia was it directly linked to the meds? So happy for you now I'm doing better also 💖

Cool vid , thanks for sharing your experience. I'm new to youtube and have been making vids about similar stuff, and it's cool to see what others are sharing. Thanks again!

I‘d love you to film a video about Borderline Personality Disorder. I myself am struggling with it and I‘d love to learn from your experiences!

I just watched the original video yesterday when I was binge re-watching all your content and I just can't even express how much your channel has helped me Marie. It was my 23rd birthday 2 days ago and I had my first mental health crisis and sh relapse in a year and I was so disappointed but watching your videos really helped me so much. Thanku xxx

Babe ❤ Ily sm

the voices thing i do that, like if i dont do something then this will happen, if i do it something bad will happen been like it since i was little just thought it was me, im so proud that things are much better now x

Hey Marie I love you can you bring back the what happens when series plz

LOVE

I wanna be as positive or as strong as you 🤍

Hey I'm currently in a camhs unit , any advice please been here two months now !😭x

I love you so so much ❤️.

I get what u mean like u cant remember bits of it cuz our brains were trying to protect us so if we watch them 4 years later its like a different person in a way but ye its crazy 😮

Yas marieeeee 💕

I watched this with 7 adverts 😂

what the intro song called?

Why does this have to happen to you! I'm so sorry.I wish I could take this from you., at least for a while so you could get a break.❤

is your dad French Marie? now i realise your surname i'm like "of course" lmao

YOUR DAD LOL

you’re so beautiful

Aw 🤗

wow, 30:29 to 30:36 so scary!!!

You are so strong xx we love you marie

i just dislike whenever people tell you to "just think positive and push your dark thoughts away" like wow, its really "that easy". its not some magic trick that you use. you cant think straight when youre in a dark mood, or at least thats how i always feel.

💓❤️💓❤️💓

Crisis✌🏾

CRISIS 😂🤷‍♀️

aw, you can just tell how much your dad loves you just from his voice.

💞💞💞💞

How did you stop being so obsessed with like the concept of life and it not making sense? I’ve been like this for a few years now and it’s ruining my life.
