    I definitely empathize! Starting over is scary and things are always scarier when you’re in the middle of it but everything always have a way of working out. My husband and I also may have to move in a few months and although we’re not in NYC, shits expensive AF out there and it’s such a pain in the ass lol. Good luck on your move and I hope the lifestyle change is better for your mental health!

    I always get frustrated when I work so hard and still not able to get expected results just because I have a hard time focusing on little things. Just like you, I spend a lot on time reading a simple text many times and still don't understand it ( I don't know why) This is so fkd up and I often get stressed out because of it. What's even more frustrating is that mental health is not taken seriously by anyone in my country (India) . ADHD sucks!

    There's a strong emotional attachment to living in New York City that people can't seem to shake. I can't tell you how many people I've met who live paycheck to paycheck in NYC and refuse to leave. There's nothing practical about living in NYC, especially if you're trying to save money and start a family.

    I love the curve theory - it helps with accepting change when you're not quite ready to let go, like for me when I got laid off 6 months ago, and now I have a greater opportunity within reach that fills me with purpose like never before. Also - I've been a passive youtube watcher since forever, I often come back to the same creators to watch their content without subscribing, but after watching just a few videos of yours, I subscribed b/c it felt like every video of yours was worth my time in terms of value delivered and also just because each of your videos is like a work of art. Your design background really comes thru in these videos even if you don't work in design in an official capacity. I love the videos and insights you share. Excited to follow you on this journey - keep up the great work!

    Wow! Your story about the two people you saw at the train station, almost brought me to tears. Sometimes the big flashy cities may not give you all that you want... or even what you truly want. Being in my mid twenties I feel this so hard. It hasn't been even a year since I moved to the current big flashy city that I live in, and honestly I dont really know what I'm even doing here 💔

    Ms. Wes, I must say I'm very proud of you. I relate a lot to your situation in making the extremely difficult decision to move. For me, it led to a major fall out with someone I considered my best friend, but it was the best decision I could have made. For my mental, physical, and emotional health. I'm excited for your next adventure. Whether that includes continuing content creation or not. I'm I'm rooting for you. 🖤

    NYC is a "mild" lifestyle upgrade from SF? 🤣 SF is not remotely close to NY. Please don't insult NY.

    • @WesleyAnna
      @WesleyAnna 2 дні тому

      Haha don’t get me wrong, I left SF for a reason-but for the things that are important to me (diversity, food, walkability, career opportunities) it’s not that far behind, especially when you compare it to literally any other city in America (LA comes close but then you’re dealing with traffic and general ugliness). Also, the gap is closing more and more as NY is starting to suffer from a lot of the same issues that SF did in the 2010s: rapid gentrification, safety issues, and an increasingly present monoculture after living costs have pushed out long time residents. My main point in the video was that, if you’re a homebody like I am and don’t have any ties to the city, then you really are paying for what I would consider to be non-critical life upgrades. And if you can no longer afford it, it’s probably not worth fighting for (at least in my case).

    Sorry to hear that you have been struggling 😢 I totally get it and have been in similar situations at various times in my life. I admire you for recognising that the right thing for you to do right now is to leave NYC. With regard to what content I’d like to see as one of your subscribers, I’d love to see anything that fulfils your creative needs. Whatever you are passionate about will come across and we will love seeing your passion. For me personally, I’d love to see any vlogs about your new life on the West Coast; daily/weekly/chatty vlogs; wedding prep; videos about ADHD in whatever form you think others might find helpful; funny vlogs with Alby in. And I love a moving series! You could do a vlog detailing your drive across country. Wishing you all the best and lots of luck in this next chapter and looking forward to seeing your next videos xxx
