  • I can't tell you how many times I come back to this video and just.... feel like I'm not the only one... I'm not so alone. I'll always have this (there is no perfect word so I'll use the closest) love for you for sharing something so powerful and precious and brave and soothing.

  • @kicesie Thank you, it's because of you that this video reached so many people and I truly appreciate that. It was really something I did for myself and didn't expect that many people to see, but the responses I got from people who were feeling the same way was overwhelming. Anything that can help someone feel not so alone, or help someone through some of the things we've been through is so worth it to me. Thanks again, keep doing what you're doing! Much love to you.

  • Every year this video means more to me, and i see more in it. Still a wow video....

  • I'm still in awe at the bravery this video took and it remains my favorite video on all of youtube of all time!

  • still one of my fav you tube videos

  • Fanatastic video, so open, so raw, and great work in producing it. I have lost who sent me this, I only today watched this because it was in my inbox. Thank you for sharing.

  • Alright so I lied - I did subscribe....sry...you had me curious and now I know. I love you my sister, with all the love I can give!!

  • This made me cry... so very beautiful and touching. You are a very beautiful woman be proud of who you are.

  • hi there... you know what you are soo strong... that u dont understand how much strangth u have inside... u r truely amazin person... for all this shit u have been threw... i admire ur strangth.. ur conviction and over all your confidence to come forward with this response that happened to you...

  • I love you. This video inspires me when i'm feeling down.

    x

  • A gem of a video.Truly remarkable.

    The hardships of life have made you stronger... some people might have crumbled under the blows.For that i admire you, you Beautiful soul.

  • o my gosh im only 13 and i feel what you feel i was molested as a child and it still haunts me... but i conquered through it... just believe in your self and trust god and the rest will happen in god's timing

    god bless you!:)

    you have many people who love and care for you:)

  • Wow, amazing dear lady. I saw myself in every second and pray you've found more peace than I...You appear younger than I am, know you DO still have time, and use it wisely. please....

  • I was in tears when i watched your video but i find you very brave coz you are able to share it with the whole world. Im pretty impressed and i love you..

    You are beautiful and your smile is really nice. I hope that your life is happier now..

  • You're a truly remarkable person! WOW...this video blew me away... wow again... I don't have many favourites but you are one of them...

  • i'm really sorry 4 everything that've happened to u... really.. i actually did cry with ur strory.. god bless

  • i am wasting mine and i dont know how to fix it

  • Great expression!

    Thank you for sharing

  • That was very good and in some ways i underdstand where your coming from. Your amazing and keep your head up.

  • I don't know who this person is or whoever went through it but let me tell you one thing.. I love you.. I might not know who you care or where you came from but you inspire many people. One of whom is myself.. I learned that life is not a game but reality, a world we live in.. We try our best for what? Ourselves, we tend to only make ourselves happy when we forget the bigger picture. You've shown me that being myself is safe and that life is unique and hopefully you live a great life..

  • Very deep, you are a brave person for sharing so much of yourself, especially in this place.

  • If you ever want to talk to someone, no pressure, and just get things off your chest, I'm more than willing to read. Keep your chin up honey. There's always going to come a brighter day.

  • I hope your life is happier now. It's hard for people to appreciate their lives until they think about or live the life of someone who has it worse. But everyone suffers depression at some point, unless it's all fake, or they're extremely lucky.

    I've no room to talk about the self esteem, or the shield you have over your heart... but I can tell you this. You're beautiful. A lot of people would KILL to have a figure like that, ESPECIALLY after having a child.

  • The only thing you can do I dream. Keep dreaming and pursue them.

  • Heart Breaking </3 truly amazing <3

  • deep

  • i know how she feels i feel like that all the time and i been raped about 4 times

  • Wow... That was... Amazing. God, it's so heart-wrenching. You are a fine example of what a woman should be: open about their secrets, strong, and you never gave up. I hope someday to be as strong as you.

  • very touching video. hard too watch but worth it. Added to my favs

  • It's all right. My mom is worse, she doesn't even try to improve herself. I know most of u love ur moms and are damn lucky. I have never had real mom's love and no one in school really likes me. I get above average marks becxause i study my ass off. I have lied (so many times)and have almost gone through every single embarrassment. From losing my glasses on a rollercoaster to forgetting a lot of stuff. But i will always look on the bright side and keep smiling. I am sure u can too! :)

  • Fantastic video

  • it is something so honest and the truth. I salute to you for your honesty.

    All people feel like this.. but most of them are expert in pretending. This world is a theatre and people are good actors. BUT YOU EXPOSED THE REALITY. DONT THINK YOU ARE ALONE.

    WE LOVE YOU!

  • amazin

  • awesome....

    just awesome

  • You are amazing Jill, I wish you the best

    <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

  • woow...it takes real courage to make a video like this...its soo powerful n to tell you the truth sometimes well almost all the time i feel like that...and i really really respect you for doing this...this is my 1st time watching your video and idk i dont how words to describe how great it is...

  • That is what we all feel inside at times... Some more than others, of course. The truth is - life really is what you let yourself make of it. Seems too easy - but we create our realities for ourselves. The fears we choose to fear... WE CHOOSE. The toughest thing to do is to say OK, I'll be happy where I am, with what I have, HOW? But, what is better: to always wonder am I making a mistake, is there something better I should do - and never really know or embracing where and how you find yourself?

  • jbt skroz zajeban i poucan snimak!!!

    u cant probablly read this :D

    i wrote on Serbian!!

    i just love it!!!

    EVERYBODY LIES!!!!

  • wow you are brave

  • Wow...that was kind of, scary. You were so right! A lot of things you said reminded me of the lives around me. Wow...

  • unbelievable!!!!

    that explains so much

    i know what your going threw

  • This is outstanding, truely.

    & Jill, you are beautiful.

  • such a powerful video jill.

    love it.

    everytime i watch it, it makes me think.

    think about life, think about love, think about myself, think about everything.

    ive watched this video over 50 times

    and you always get me thinking

    love it.

  • honey u r amazin

    thats absolutely beautiful

    x

  • There's nothing I can think of to say in response to this. It was good. It helped me. I can relate, a bit, but at times it felt as though we're in different worlds. Such an odd thing.

  • Powerful video. I can agree with a lot of stuff you said. By the way, I love that Everybody lies shirt from House.

  • I know...I love that T-shirt, I ordered one as soon as I saw it!

  • i rate 5 stars

  • Such a powerful video .. it was as if I were watching a video of my own thoughts..

  • all i can say is "WOW"

  • i dont cry,ever,and when i do,it is something so utterly powerfull it would make someone with out a hear,someoen like me,cry

    this was one of those things,you have said everythign i couldnt,and i thank you so much,i was about to give up on life until i saw this vid,you saved my life,thank you

  • In truth there is beauty, and by this logic you are gorgeous.

    Amazing, to put in the simplest of terms.

  • Jill, to make things short, I have an ANSWER! I promise I will make a video, hopefully soon (im kinda a perfectionist about them) and will send it too you, for one reason only, YOU. what I mean by that, you will hopefully understand when I make the video.

    thanks,

    andrew

    PS: you did have a good video, very thoughtful and open, maybe you need a friend that you can rely on, hopefully you have found one, or if you want, I will be.

  • i think im pretty much exactly like you.

    thanks for this.

  • me too

  • *****  wow.

  • Hello Jilly, thank you for making Exposed and for sharing this poignant video with us all. The breadth of your introspection, in all likelihood, has prompted many viewers to reflect upon their own lives. We are all flawed, this much is true. Still, a brighter future is our shared hope. This is why I am glad that you mentioned that you "feel pretty this year ..." because my impression is that you are - both inside and out. Take care, Ray

  • You are a very strong person... And you seem so kind... You deserve to be happy...

  • Rarely do identify as strongly to a person as I did you. Your honesty is beautiful. Thank you. Thank you for exposing yourself...such a selfless act. I am so deeply touched and I believe that people (although through camera) enter your life when they are supposed to and I believe seeing your video at the moment I did was no coincidence. Thank you again.

    Stephanie

  • So inspiring. So beautiful. I'm sorry for the bad things in your life. It makes you stronger.

  • I give you credit for this video. You did an amazing job expressing yourself. You deserve some sort of reward for this. Some of the feelings you described are also out there in many other men and women but none of them have the courage to post a video on a public place. Again, you deserve a reward. Smile more often, its definitely a pretty one!

  • thank you...i know I'm not alone in my feelings now. I have spina bifida too and I try to live my life the best I can. I need to try harder.

  • i absolutely adore this, i'm tempted to do something kind of like it but i think i'd have a hard time being so openly honest.

  • ok, this is truth time ... I feel the same way sometimes. I was born with Spinia Bifida (a physical disability) and it is absolutly hard sometimes. I think it is important to live life to the fullest, and I try everyday. THANK YOU for making this video!

  • very brave of you :)

  • hey ur not a failure......u know why? cause ur still here smiling having a good time so dont let all this shit get to you

  • You're a fantastic person to be able to speak so honestly about yourself. I feel that your soul is plumbed of it's secrets by you. To be so critical & so frank about oneself is the mark of extreme sensitivity & courage. Yes you may be awrkward with life lady. But you are not alone. I send you the love I have. May we all see ourselves as frankly. x

  • That's a great video. It really makes me think about many things. I'll be watching this again over the next few days I'm sure.

  • this hits hard i feel you on this on i feel you on this video

  • this is the best video on youtube

  • That made me cry

  • That was a wonderful video. It was very honest and open. This video shows how brave you really are. I think everyone has these same fears, or at least some of them. People are just too afraid to come out and say them. This is what elevates you above the rest of us. The courage to say what you feel inside. I have the utmost respect for you and for this video. I salute you.

  • this is beautiful. it made me cry :(

  • Thank you for being real. I feel like some of them things sometimes.

  • Everyone feels like you do. The world is a ugly place. People arent perfect, often times they are evil and want to hurt you. Bad Fathers, but husbands. Ive learned you have to stay positive and realize, this is the way people have made the world. So dont focus on the negative or it will detroy you, and take away your entire life.

    The only thing I can say, put God first, live your life for him as best as you can, always strive to get closer to God. He is the only Perfection out there to find.

  • Wow this is really amazing!

    What program did you use to edit it?

  • I use Pinnacle for all my videos. It's easy to use, wasn't very expensive.

  • is this real about you? if so i feel sorry!

    great video though

  • Yep, it's all true...I don't feel these things all day every day, but enough of the time I felt I wanted to share it. The support from everyone has been tremendous. Thanks!

  • This was the most beautiful video I've ever seen on YouTube. So amazing...

  • Aw sweetie I cried when I saw this. You are so brave and I can even relate to some of the things you say.

  • damn man. kinda depressing, but right up front there. A nice thinking video.

  • wow, you have an amazing tallent for poetry in real life. you are so brave. your not alone, alot of people have been through those things, me for one. it takes an incredibly strong woman to do a video like this, its beautiful. made me cry for 10 minutes, and made me realise alot about myself. so thank you. so much.

  • What drove you to make this video is inspirational, it makes me feel good to know that people analyze their life like you do, analyzing is the first step to happyness and working out where you need to head.

  • thank you so much for this video

  • Thank you for being real.

    You're an inspiration.

  • Speechless.

  • I love this video. Thank you so much for sharing it with us <3

  • honey, ignore those assholes who get off on being cruel to others... this was brilliant & a great way to get to know someone. you are brave for sharing & admitting these things with us! :)

  • the video was incredible. thank you.

  • wonderful video. we are all the same really. we all feel and fear the same things... we all think we are alone. Thanks for sharing, it was beautiful and enlightening.

  • You speak your truth, but so much of it is mine as well.

    I admire your courage for being able to do this...

    Thank you for speaking for some of us that are still not ready to and/or cannot.

    ~Someone who puts on a fake smile for the world, yet is dying inside~

  • GIRL!

    you are fucking gorgeous! Dont let anyone tell you that you're not, because you seem like an amazing person!

    If your husband thinks your not a good wife, then hes an asshole.

    This made me sad. :(

  • Ty for your VDO, I am touched.

  • Thank you for this video.

    It helped me understand my mom as well as myself better.

  • This video has touched me beyond words. Thank you so much for your honesty and courage.

    I was raped when I was 12.

    though its so sad

  • thanks a lot,beauty.

  • This rocked me to my core. You are all of our darkest moments put to film, and sometimes we must confront them out loud if we are to overcome. I don't think I could ever put something like this together, and I commend you for doing so. This was really something. Thank you.

  • life is cruel for some. you are one of them. so im i. i'll meet you in heaven girl! :)

  • i am truly touched...very good video...i think ill feature it....despite what my friends well say

  • ah você é linda ..

  • god bless you

  • this brought a tear to my eye :( (17 year old guy WTH)

  • This video truly made me cry. I feel the same way about some things she says. I know how she feels. I ask myself sometimes "why do I even exist?" or "What the hell is my purpose for living" I still don't know. But at least I have a good friend to help me through it. I know nothing of love like she does but, I am still looking for it. Of course I try to act all manly and strong but, I am still a little, lonely child on the inside. Some people say, I'm too sensitive or weak. I wish I could go on..

  • Inspiring. Thank you.

  • i love you :)

  • I you ever need anyone to talk to. I'm here, we all are. You are truly beautiful; inside and out. I know you are married, and I know you you feel alone sometimes, but I am always here. I promise.

  • very poetic and thought provoking video. You have talent.

  • i dont think i have the right words to say to this, only that you were put here for a reason, and girl u must be an angel. im glad you didnt end ur life. if u ever feel unloved know that many people out there love you, and u r never alone.

  • WOW over 11 000 views,I remember when I put this on my facebook and it was under 1000! Well done,I love this video :)

  • It's amazing that you have lived through this. But you don't realize how many people you have affected with this video. I'm sure there is thousands of young girls watching this... feeling the same as you have and are feeling. You probley have helped them out just get through it. Even though I'm a guy, I think you have ton a trendmendously good thing here.  For that I thank you.

  • your a very deep person. i am sorry that you have been through what you have been through

  • i am sorry about what happened to you. god bless

  • That was beautiful

  • i actualy had tears and go ahead make fun of me i am not gunna let anyone hurt me

  • you r a brave and strong hearted woman and u have a amazing body and screw everyone else who doughts u or talks bad about u keep on pulling im putting this as my favorite and will send it to evry friend i have

  • so touching.

  • Many commenters have said how most women can relate to this. It has a lot of relevance for men too. The details of the problems and events may differ, but many of the feelings are just the same.

    I'm glad you're allowing comments again. This video may become a youtube classic.

  • I....used to feel this way.

    one of the biggest things for me.... was finding happiness in the little things helped.

  • You have no reason in the world to be self-concious about your body, my dear. I hope I look HALF as good as you do when I have kids.

    God bless you. Stay strong.

  • after watching this i cryed ,,,it is amazin how well u have done.. i seem to emithise with u..everything u said is exsaccly how i feel..... ur not alone!

  • nice :D

  • brilliant video.. inspirational

  • Be strong!

    Are you getting better?

  • There's a cold in the morning, endless equation of who've become...its a complex situation so.. live, love life... give love... because who are we anyways?

  • Wow, just wanted to thank you for making this!

    We have ALOT in common but I am way too introverted to ever admit it to anyone.

  • wow. When in doubt, I must look upward, When I fall I must seek mercy. I ask for trials to make me stronger.

  • 1:51 to 1:56 shows there's a light at the end of ur tunnel. stay strong love =]

  • My god!, well done, i have words, just none of them could do any justice to express how good,brave,clever,this video is.

  • stay strong. keep on living, loving, and dreaming. keep believing, i promise you'll make it.

  • your freakin cool, theres no way i could make a video like that, a bit shy among other things..... but back to you, your video made me think about certain issues and thats cool, cause usually I just freak out in some way or another. stay strong

  • Jill, I so relate to your video. It's me. I am having a difficult time today.... depression.... I've made so many mistakes... I feel a connection to you. Thank you for your videos, for your honesty, for your transparency. You are a gifted person.

  • Thank you...I'm kind of learning to be more of an open book through YouTube, it's kind of a safe outlet in a way. I have up weeks and down weeks, but I figure as long as I'm still moving forward, I'm doing okay. :) Thanks again.

  • u need a hug and a shoulder and i wish i could be there with you stay strong its the only way to survive

  • I'm so sorry, sweetie.

    Your video made me cry.

  • This is a really good video. You're very strong. Thanks for posting.

  • Thank you, it's been good therapy for me. :)

  • I love you.

  • you just have to live out loud, like no one is watching. and even if they are, you have to have fun

  • It's a work in progress. :)

  • heh, you'll get there little by little. just stay strong! it looks like your doing a good job of that already

  • Great video (:

  • Thanks so much!

  • Sometimes if people can tell someone or let it out it can help people overcome things.

  • I see the haters have arrived. Hang in there Jill. Most of us will love and support you.

  • Ah yes, but that's what the "remove" button is for! :)

  • Okay ignore all these fuckers who keep leaving the hateful comments on this video of yours. Im only 15 and ive gone through just about everything your video indicates about your life. It takes great strength to open up about stuff like this.. Especially to people you know.. Ive been sexually harrassed, and by my own family member.. Sad. yea. Am i over it? No. It happened when i was 7. Everyone found out this year. I kept it to myself for 8 years.. But yea.. great video.. Im showing everyone this

  • Thanks...you hang in there. For the most part, people have been really positive. I really thought there'd be more haters, so a few I can deal with! I love the "remove" button! :)

  • Great Video but you'll never be able to run for President Now that your Exposed Its Hard but now that you opened up in Video maybe it will be easier to open up to the people close to you -- Charles

  • Oh damn, and I so wanted to run for president...now what am I gonna do? :) Opening up in "real life" is a little harder, but I'm workin' on it. Thanks for watchin'!

  • Break down that wall, one brick at a time. Don't worry about the effort, because worry is your morter.

  • I was so touched by your video and am going to share it with my friends on facebook.

  • Thanks so much, I appreciate that!

  • A really great video. So smart, well done, creative, and more....

    James.

  • Thank you, thank you!! I truly appreciate that. :)

  • Thank you for this amazing video — I think you've done something quite incredible. I'm choked and inspired.

  • Thank you so much!!

  • Mandy sent me some time ago, but I hadn't a clue on how to respond. I still don't, but I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone. I guess you already knew that by all these wonderful responses.

  • Thank you...it really has been just so great. I haven't really known how to respond either...the outpouring of support was so completely unexpected. There are some really great people on here!

  • this is so brave of you!

    dont ever be afraid to show these kinds of feelings.

    you seem like a bold person.

    keep going :]

  • Thank you! I think I'm getting bolder with age...and I like it I think. :)

  • This is perfect. Amazing openness and honesty, with complementary body language and imagery to match.
