 Hey what's up you guys welcome back to my channel if you're new here. Hi. Hello. I'm Lydia And if you are new here make sure you hit the subscribe button during the group family We're trying to hit 10k here And we're at 6.3k So we got our work cut out Today I want to talk about why it's sometimes necessary to cut people out So one thing you probably know is around me is I don't have many friends I have a friend in Australia, Elana. If you don't know who Elana is I'll link her channel in the description down below Today we're talking about cutting people out. Now I know it sounds harsh to say that You have to cut some people out your life. I went through when I moved to university I cut off everyone that used to live in Lancashire with me I wanted a fresh start when I left Preston And I couldn't do that with all these people on my Facebook feed doing drugs, going out drinking every night I needed a way to just cut that part of my life out and it was hard because I Had quite a few friends and I went from having a few friends I could call any time that I could go out with to not having any friends and I made friends for YouTube Georgia, Kay, Beth, Jordan Serenity, but all these people are no longer in my life. I miss them like crazy. What are you gonna do? The one thing I've learned of using friends is The best you can do is try and if that friendship doesn't work out, it doesn't work out It wasn't meant to be. Having friends is a luxury I don't currently have anyone that I could just meet up with at a friend meal I don't have anyone I could just arrange to meet up with and go out. All I can say is it's Hard. I had to cut someone out my life a few years ago No, it was messaging me every day. Face-timing, constant lane. It was just horrific The reason it's important to cut people out is to keep yourself mentally stable and emotionally okay Some people in your life can be really draining and can really damage how you see it There's nothing I can so do that will make cutting people out any easier But don't be rude about it. You can end a friendship without causing a war You can just be like, hey, I think we need to take some time apart. Oh, hey, the friendship isn't working out for me Don't do it over text Text is the worst thing you can do. Call them, meet up with them. Give them a reason why Because there's always a reason and if you don't tell that person it's gonna eat away at them I know it has to me when people have cut me out I don't know why I got cut out, why I got cut out. I never had a reason. I just had to deal with it It just affects you so much more if you don't know the reason. It's important because you have to put yourself first I always say this in videos You have to put yourself first in mental health recovery Put yourself first in life because you deserve that. You know what's best for you and you know what's gonna hurt you You know what you need.
