    Kimberly, the opposite of depression, or mental illness in general, is connection. Making a video like this is a positive start. You are helping people all over the world learn and empathize with your story. Is there a library or coffee shop near you that you can go to and spend some time? Don't worry. You definitely may be able to hold down a job and work in the future, and make some money. You may also be able to find that special someone. The important thing is to hold on to hope, as we all are. You are making an important start by having this YouTube channel. Best of luck to you, and have a great week.
  • Today's goals you achieved. πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘ Love your cats. They are comical and compassionate towards you. You deserve a homemade matcha Latte . You have encouraged me to read. Thank you. Be gentle on yourself. Your vlogs help to understand a life living with schizophrenia. You are very kind and caring. Quite the teacher you are. 🐈 🐈 Your vlogs are not boring in the lease.❀😊

    Another soothing and calming video. I lurch from depression with no energy to high energy anxiety where I have to keep moving to calm my brain. I'm shifting to high energy right now, but you always calm me and make me feel welcome in your world 😊

    For me the best part of this video was when you were doing the dishes. For me? The dishes are therapeutic and relaxing, I used to do the dishes at home but my mumma kept yelling at me to not use so much water πŸ˜‚ As for the language which you usually talk in, that’s nice to know and it’s good to keep your mother tongue alive. I used to work at a restaurant for over a year and used to communicate with my fellow countrymen in our native language but then the boss heard it one day and didn’t like it. Part of the reason why I wasn’t happy working there

    Wooow!! 5 books?!? I wish I had the discipline to read at least 1 in a year

    Sweet vlog as always. Love to see your cats lounging and being part of your videos. There is a lot of beauty in your videos: your cats, your cooking, your home decor. I think it's wonderful that you've read so many books recently. Maybe you needed some time to relax, chill with books. ❀❀ You have a beautiful heart. Thank you sharing with us. I think we can all relate.
  • Getting out of a slump is a great achievement. Been here before. Keep going.

    jeg har savnet dig πŸ₯° i mean it. i have been wondering how you are. I am proud of you for doing a video and doing all your things, as you avoided. but still pulling yourself out or trying. it's chronic with folks like us schizo's right ..... i know how you feel! but you are a huge help for me. i think if Kimberly keeps fighting this illness, so will i πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’• i can't believe you read so many books this year! so cool. i tried to read yesterday. then one page in, i gave up. my head just can't πŸ₯΄

    Kia kaha e hoa, ngā manaakitanga ki a koe. Beautiful vlog as always Kimberly. I hope you are feeling better <3 Depression is the worst. I am sending hugs to you all the way from New Zealand. I love your vlogs and you are my favourite youtuber, because I can relate to a lot of the stuff you talk about having schizoaffective disorder myself. I think you're amazing fighting this illness every day, because I know how hard it can be. Take care of yourself and thinking of you - Madeline.

    ❀️❀️ I read Agnes Grey a few years ago, then listened to it on audiobook again this year. Such a great book. It spoke to me much more deeply than any other book from that era. It’s so motivating to watch you tidy and clean! Which I need because my home is a true disaster currently. Thank you for sharing 😊

    Dear Kimberly, thank you for another great vlog - warm and soothing as usual 😊 I can totally understand how hard it must have been for you to do all these things despite depression. I know people usually think being depressed means you are feeling sad when in reality it feels like all of your life energy has been drained from you... Wishing you well and sending regards from Croatia πŸ€—
