When I lost my beloved budgie I also lost all control over myself emotionally and could not stop. Almost 4 months later it still hurts a lot, and losing your best friend (who in my case has indirectly saved my life by just being there with me - who would take care of him when I am gone) will always hurt. However, my girlfriend shared a post with me of someone who's perfectly described how such things work (since emotions at that point were and still are to some extent kind of alien to me. It's like floating around in an ocean with high and powerful waves (signifying moments of grief) coming one after another. At first they come in quick succession making you feel like there's no end to it and you feel like you'll drown. However, with time it calms down and there's more time between each wave and they may also slowly lose their strength. Eventually, you may be able to see them coming (a specific date of the year for instance) and perhaps even prepare for it, but the pain will never go away completely. It dulls and loses its intensity, but it'll always be a part of you. So time does not heal all wounds, but in time you might learn how to deal with it in a healthy way.

I made all these mistakes. Now, realising these foolishness of me makes me more depressed. I used to feel sad or lonely but also happiness sometimes. However trying what this advice said has made me the worst version of myself. I am disgusted by myself. Sometimes, I just feel like I don't deserve to live. My family did everything nice, I messed up in my head. I put everybody away from me. I didn't feel good, but now I know what mistakes were made by me making me more and more depressed. I just don't know what aym I am saying. I am just frustrated to live with these mistakes.
These were my choices to live like this, I made wrong decisions, . Unconsciously I knew that things might turn bad, but they are worse than I thought. I don't wanna live. Sorry. Everyday feels like a burden. I don't remember a single morning I woke up happy since last year. I try to talk to people, but I just mess up. Well, all these mistakes are mine, so why do I need to talk, I need to change. But I just don't have any motivation. No hope that I can ever get out of this. All these are my fault. I have no strength to even crawl. I am a loser.

Most people aren't comfortable with someone being themselves. An example is how being stubborn is often associated with someone judging you for doing the opposite of what they believe you should be doing.
I've dared to be myself in a way that doesn't negatively impact the lives of others and, unfortunately still continue to trigger the overactive ego of others simply for choosing to be who I want to be.
I believe highly sensitive people are more likely to make the world revolve around themselves rather than accepting that the world itself and the creatures within was never meant to be totally in line with our assumptions or personal values.
I would never expect a grizzly bear to stop eating meat. That is my way of saying because I'm not a vegetarian doesn't me I hate animals. On the contrary, I love animals I just happen to eat them too.

Be Yourself
I'm not a trained psychologist, but I've thought a lot about this one because it was said to me so many times when I was young.
I've come to the conclusion that most people who say, just be yourself really mean, act more like other people. I say this because be yourself is often said to people who are a bit odd in one way or another. Somebody who behaves oddly or says odd things can make other people uncomfortable, and that discomfort makes people think the person who is behaving or speaking oddly is putting on an act for attention. So people want to say, stop being weird, but realize that would sound mean, so they substitute be yourself.
(And I don't mean odd in a bad way. I mean it as doesn't fit neatly into the expectations of the peer group)

Forget the dream job, or follow your passion. Dreams and passions are for hobbies, if they don't bring in the money! Most businesses fail for a reason.
Most people should never buy a house! With 60 to 80% of the population living paycheck to paycheck, you really shouldn't add hundreds of thousands of dollars on top of all your problems. There are hundreds of thousands of foreclosures every year, don't be one of them!
50% of marriages end in divorce, with financial problems being the number one reason. Learn financial literacy, and marry wisely, someone who shares your financial dreams.
The American dream is upward mobility.
Don't be materialistic. Save lots of money, then buy nicer things. Quality over quantity.

Whenever my dad/uncle gets pissy with me for still not having a job, I ask if he thinks all I do is sit on my ass and wait for a job to be handed to me on a silver platter. His reaction tells me that is what he thinks I do. I have been trying my best to find a job with the limited knowledge, connections, options, and work experience I have. The main problem is that no jobs I have tried applying for want to hire me. That said, I try my best to be patient and move on. The same goes with trying to find people I can talk with. Though I am not that proactive with it, I still do try to talk with people. Nothing is going to be handed to you on a silver platter, you have to make some effort if you really want something.

I can relate to the follow your heart one. I had to make the tough decision on Jan 2, 2025 to put down my cat, who was 14, maybe 15, and critical. Her health had declined rapidly. I chose to say goodbye. My heart didn’t want me to, but my mind told me she was already suffering. Stopped eating, almost threw up (maybe) drinking water, wasn’t aware she was having accidents so I was changing her blanket that she sat on a lot. Her purr was very faint, she didn’t make her croaking noises anymore. Other half was with me when I said goodbye. He’d rescued her after she was abandoned and tore him a new one and years later, bonded to me

I have listened to all these advice in this video all my life. It didn't help most of the time I followed it. The one I hear the most because of my depression is time heal all wounds I don't see it. I felt lost since 15 going to be 34 this year but man I feel drained from hearing that. I just feel that if I didn't need money I would not work just be cooped up at home. I had a close friend to talk to but lost communication with her. She was studying to be a psychiatrist which helped me a lot but since losing contact I know it got bad again. Losing contact was 6 years ago. I am told to reach out but feel like it's pointless to

Being yourself is always a tough one for most. No matter how genuine, smart, kind and attractive you truly are, there's always gonna be someone or some people out there who will never accept you. You're bad news, the black sheep of the herd, the go-to object. Real people have the smallest circles and/or no friends at all. While fake people have the majority of the planet. People who are lonely tend to be the nicest because they know what it's really like to have nobody. You're always gonna be misunderstood, no matter where you go. I'm just speaking from personal experience.

You mean basically not misinterpreting advice the same way the ones giving the advice do. It's very rare I ever see understanding these quotes correctly. They're all actually good advice if you don't take them at face value and understand how to apply them to different lifestyles and situations. The main issue with them is that they're supposed to sound supportive instead of harsh, so to ignorant people's ears, they're going to sound like excuses, rather than advice. Oh, I don't have to feel bad about hurting others since that's just who I am and I should be myself, right

I saw a guy talk about advices and what he said was fascinating. He said Don't listen to anyone's advice because the advice they give worked for them which doesn't necessarily mean it will work for you too it might even have the complete opposite effect and destroy you so the best advice is to never take anyone else's advice oops i guess i also started giving advice don't listen to me do what fits you the best
You know what the best part was He was telling all these things to a soft toy while serving himself and the toy some noodles lol

You'd rush to the doctor if you got physically hurt.
Well, actually, it takes me a lot of effort to convince me to go to the doctor, unless it's obviously bad! It's not even an issue of but I have to fight insurance -- it's usually but I have to take time out of my day, I need to work and be with my family, I just want time to unwind, etc
I'm trying to work on that -- and yes, I'm trying to keep in mind that I don't want to be told that they could have saved me, if only I had come to them sooner -- but it's still hard!

Really love the balanced approach in this video. Sometimes, it really does feel as though the system is rigged against you. But in truth, it's a complicated web of things. It makes it seem less of a bad thing. By subtracting the fear of a thing, it can't scare you as much. If that makes sense. It makes it bearable to live.

Some of the phrases mentioned here are the ones which I have already worked on (in my diary) when people advised me 'follow your heart' or 'be yourself as you are', i usually wonder is that really that good thing, don't they know that the extreme believe in only positivity can force us to see only single side of life
I would like to say that life varies in multi ways, it's not like one way path.

if I never go to the doctor because I know the injury will heal on it's own then why would I go to the doctor for my small emotional injuries I have never suffered a really bad injury before like a broken arm or anything so I don't know the threshold of a large emotional injury so I guess that's why I have such emotional scares that don't heal. Eh, just random ramblings, don't mind me

Lol. Whenever someone told me this. I would laugh heartily telling them my true self and nature is not meant for civilized company. So I'll try to put on my human mask and pretend to be better than my usual self while around other humans. Mirroring is the safest way to interact with people I haven't solved yet. It's all about the albedo and not libido.

Imagine you are watching a workout video and you really enjoyed it. You see another video and you watch it too. The thing go as so and so, at the end of the day you done no workout, just watched videos about it.
Remember, that your brain tricks you to think that planning a thing is DOING, when it's not.
