Update On Life

Aw yay, so happy to see you posting here again! :) I'm excited about all of your updates and pray that the things you are still working and waiting on (insurance approval, health improvement, etc.) will all continue to fall into place for you in God's perfect timing. You are so inspirational and encouraging to me with things I'm going through too. Sometimes we go through stuff and feel like we're the only one, but there are so many people fighting their own battles and this video reminded me of that. By the way, you look so pretty and I love your pastel yellow hoodie! That's a color I'm always looking for to find in shirts, but it's hard to find the right shade! As far as videos go, your health related updates are always nice and I'd also love any type of lifestyle video - whether moving into your new house, decorating, storage ideas, hauls, wardrobe organizing, etc. Anything you post is interesting to watch! Have a nice day! :)

Yay! I was hoping one would be coming soon! I watched your bunny routine and have been on alert ever since for a new video on here!!

I'm so happy you posted again!! You inspire me everyday and you are such a remodel to me!!❤️❤️❤️

You helped me so much for setting up a proper rabbit cage and understanding my rabbit behaviours, I got mine from a previous owner who had an aggressive dog, she was pretty scared, but now she on the way to a happier life. Thank you so much for that. You know life wouldn't be life without struggles, stay strong, wish you the best. ;)

Glad you are posting on this channel. I love your both channels. Your such a road model.

I just found your videos today and you are so sweet and intelligent! Thank you for your videos, I have ASD and EDS so I can understand so much of what you are going through!

I struggle with anxiety and depression too. I used to get so upset over such little things . Like just a little argument with my boyfriend about something small would reduce me to a crying mess on the floor, hyperventilating and thinking nobody loved me, just really dark thoughts. I’m glad to know I’m not alone, that’s a really scary place to be. I’m glad you’re doing better. My doctor put me on the maximum dose of Lexapro and it seems to be working really well. I still have ups and downs but they’re like, normal down days, you know? Not like before. I hope you continue to improve and do well with your health struggles!

I feel for you!🙏 I was diagnosed with pots a year and a half ago, I get a lot worse with my depression over the time of my cycle… and it’s getting worse this past half year, I do next to nothing else for about a week coz I’m crying and drained. Nice to know that I’m not the only person who is hurting! Better days are coming for both of us I hope!💞

Good to hear from you, Haley. Sorry to hear about your health though, I'm still struggling with my OCD. You're such a brilliant, natural artist and it's great to see your photography skills. You're such a beautiful person too. I hope you continue to improve your health as much as you can :).

I came as soon as I saw the notification!! I love u, ur rabbits, and ur vids Haley!

YAY! ERP is great! My daughter who is 12 is in an intensive outpatient program for her OCD. So happy you got help!!!

Hey Haley. Thanks for sharing. You expressed everything perfectly. Presentations and speeches would be one of my 'thangs' and you were excellent. Listening to you on this channel for the first time was quite an eye opener. In the sense that listening to you describe your life since graduation, was almost like looking in a mirror. I'll spare you my story. What I wanted to say was that I believe you'll experience a big improvement in your quality of life when you move back, close to where you grew up. Chronic illness can be very isolating at the best of times. But, to live in a place where you lack the support networks that you've just described you'll have again soon, it's almost like you're doubling down on the factors which lower your quality of life. That is bound to have a negative affect on your physical health and it definitely has a very negative affect on your mental health. So, things are sounding much more positive. I tire of people recommending treatments to me, like I've never tried or considered them myself. So, I'm not going to fall into the same trap here :) I will suggest on thing to you though and you might find it transformative. If you're familiar with the term 'black dog', you'll know that it's another term for depression. Shoot the Damned Dog is a brilliant biographical paperback, written by a British journalist, about her own struggles with severe depression. It's inciteful, hilarious, hugely informative and probably the best book I've yet to read on the subject. You can get it via Amazon or eBay, I'm sure. I couldn't recommend it highly enough. It helped me a lot. Anyways. I'm in the UK and it's just past 01.00, so I must try to get some sleep. Good luck with your house move. I suspect that it will be the start of a new, much more positive chapter in your life. You've achieved so much already, in seeking to beat the various illnesses you're coping with. When someone looks at you in your wheel chair, or taking a break from some activity, what they may think, is that they're looking at a frail, weak person. What such people don't understand, is the depth of character and huge reserves of strength, people like us need sometimes, just to function. And it's the same of anyone with a cocktail of chronic illnesses. So, never ever think of yourself as weak. You are stronger than you know and much stronger than the vast majority of the population. Many, many people would've given up. But you haven't. That speaks volumes about your depth and strength of character. Kindest regards from the UK, Michael :)

Do more of these! I don't have as many of the problems that you have, but I have some, and SO many people have these problems...an adorable and likeable person lkke you, talking about it matter of factly, really helps. This is the first time I knew you had depression- I have been through it twice, only twice, thank God, but it is so horrible- I'm really sorry!! You are awesome!

I'm sure you'll get approved through your Dr's. In MN when I was going through chemo my insurance company denied a lot of tests and meds. But with the Dr's prior authorizations (they did all the paperwork) everything turned out. I also get dizzy when standing and a lot of walking. I hate going shopping or anywhere I have to walk long stretches.(going down flights of stairs is dangerous because of the dizziness). Keep your chin up. You are awesome and a beautiful person.

I was diagnosed with POTS in December of last year. I’ve been watching the channels on your video as I was getting all the diagnostic tests done for the next 4 months. I would cry a lot with my rabbit because I was so stressed physically, mentally, and emotionally. The first POTS diagnosis led to other diagnoses and it was so difficult with the constant barrage of information about what’s wrong with my body. I appreciate your updates and honesty so, so much and I can’t express how much they make me feel like I’m not alone in all of this. I would have the same hormonal depression symptoms and I’ve had them much longer than I’ve had POTS. They call it PMDD. I’m kinda rambling at this point, but thank you.

I just watched a few videos from your channel as I just got a couple of bunnies. You have beautiful personalities and I’m amazed how well you cared the bunnies. ❤️ from 🇦🇺. With you all the best.

Keep going strong!! Hope you'll have a nicer chapter on your life once you move to your new place

Yeah I get the same way during that time of the month and its so hard because it can stick around longer then my cycle sometimes and then one day ill wake up and in fine but I do get severely depressed one week out of every month and I get migrains and am so tired. Pls keep me updated on how well the hormones help you ? Hang in there hun cuz I feel you girl , it ain't fun !!!

I am sooooo sorry, I know how ocd Can effect your life (cuz I have it too) and you are soooo inspiring and Creative, I have been researching bunnies for about a year now and u were the main reason I am getting one (on July 7) and am so excited to get it, and I owe it all to you, I didn't know you had those syndromes and stuff. I fully support you in every way, you are amazing. Kind, and a great pet owner. Keep being you and and keep making videos.

My Young Adult group in my church (years ago!) they were SO raunchy, and full of stories about what they had been up to Friday and Sat, it was quire the education! Ha, it just made me remember
