Hey Amanda, so happy to hear from you :) glad you and your hubby are super excited!!! Congrats again!!! No need to be sorry either hun, you are a human being and this is your life and experiences you are sharing with us! Thankyou so much for your dedication to your subscribers and having the courage to be honest about what you are truly dealing with. You have helped me become comfortable that not being ok and smiling every single day is perfectly normal and that we are strongest when we have our own time to reflect and ask when we need support from our family and friends! Looking forward to watching anything you upload!! Thanks again for being you :)
Hi Amanda, first of all sorry for my poor English I am from south America. Being a guy who followed all your videos for a long period of time let me tell you that this video is the best one ever. A lot of people around the world (including myself) experience anxiety and then search for people, videos, books or anything to help themself to feel better so during those desperate times I'm sure that many of your subscribers wrote to you throwing all their feelings looking for help and after seeing this video I completely agree with you that it is not healthy for you. I am a father now too and with this life change the most important thing in your life becomes your son (in my case my daughter) so being selective is a great idea. You are not the only one that realizes this. I followed another person in RU-vid that went trough the same situation and finally she stayed away from uploading videos about drugs, anxiety and self experiences on this topic. I wish you and your husband all the best with the coming baby boy and I assure to you that everything will be really good and amazing !!! Marco.
I went through this exact same thing when I started to get a lot of subscribers... I got so many intense messages on Facebook that I had to disable them, and I still get emails of people telling me their life-story or ALL of their problems. For my own mental health, I just have to not read them and try to make clear that my email is for "business inquiries only." Like you said, we're not therapists. As far as removing content, I just have way too many videos now to go through each one and decide what to unlist and what to keep public, so it's either leave everything up or take everything down at this point. I think if I have kids, I'll just delete everything and start a mom channel or something, haha. Oh, and I also get weirded out thinking about any of my family watching my videos, ugh. The struggle is real :p
rawsammi Thanks for the feedback! Luckily i only had about 30 videos to go through. I’ll have to do the same thing and be selective on what I respond to. I also think mommy vlogs are fun 😂 I guess we just have to decide on what parts of our life we would like to keep secret. It gets nerve racking because I may feel comfortable sharing something one day, and then not the next, and that’s just something I’ll have to deal with if I want to keep sharing!
