I think I actually am pretty good thought I'm better at that than I am at being in relationship to this point because I don't know if necessarily that's that I'm better at that or I just like cannot even imagine having romantic feelings for someone, but I have before so don't worry guys I just like love days at my house where I'm feeling productive I'm feeling good, and I'm just getting stuff done because it feels good. You know sometimes, you know what? No, this this is the time that we're gonna talk about it I want to talk about Summertime sadness in today's vlog. I made a tick-tock Blooming positive girls, so I don't miss what they're saying But I made a tick-tock and then I posted on reels about how I have like reverse seasonal depression I have dealt with mental health issues like pretty much my entire life. I've been on meds. I've been off meds I've been in therapy forever so anyways the way I Feel like people describe seasonal depression in the winter is how I feel in the summer and I've talked about in therapy so many times I Thrive in the fall and winter months like I am my best self. I love life. It is really know what nothing to do Like I know some people talk about it being like a body image issue, and I haven't even thought about that Maybe I don't think that's really it. I think for me. It's more Nothing there aren't body image issues, but I think for me. It's more of like the routine of it like one the heat I don't like the heat, but it doesn't matter. It's not even just Texas like wherever I am. I still feel this So yeah one I don't like the heat, but two I think summer it feels like a little more loose Maybe it's like a little bit less of structure even though like my life doesn't change anymore in the summer I do think I travel more but whatever it is about this summer months just like I I don't know like there's part of me that loves summer like there's good things I recognize that I'm not saying I'm like completely hate summer but I thrive in the fall and winter like when it's cozy and there's like Stupid lattes and there's the holidays and it's like football and just like I don't know I've always loved Fall and winter but summertime for me can be so isolating and I feel so depressed and I I Find that I deal with imposter syndrome a lot more. I find that I'm a lot harder on myself like Again, not necessarily body, but maybe it is and I'm just like bearing that I'm harder myself like emotionally. So it's like I Think my career wise I will I catastrophize in thinking worse in the summer Like oh this all sucks and whatever and I think it is just like comes from hitting the heat and outside and just I don't know But I'm curious to know if any of you feel this way I was really surprised on tech talk and Instagram by how many of y'all and just people that I knew feel the exact same way Cuz I feel like I don't hear that's obviously like not the most common thing. They must people are like, oh, I hate winter I love summer and I'm the opposite. I really just love the fall and winter. I love cold weather I love that time of year and I just feel better for whatever reason in the summer. I'm so just like I Don't know. I'm like I'm not maybe it's the mid-year thing. I don't know I'm just rambling at this point But like summer if you have like summertime sadness or like reverse season of depression I see you it sucks. Like it's actually really hard I think that's why I'm such a good mood today. It's actually feel good for once Yeah, it's just it's not my time of year. It really is it. It's just not so anyways I'm gonna get to recording now But I do want to talk about that because I'm like wow I guess everyone feels this not everyone But a lot of more people than I thought okay Anyways, let me know in the comments below Because I felt like well, I'm not crazy and so that was really helpful, you know, okay I've changed in to the Lander for crew. It is so comfortable. Yes, it is a hundred degrees up I don't care. Um, I also love this new Set active tumbler. I don't know if it's just for PR packages or if it's I feel a little bad But incredible. So anyway, I'm gonna record this episode now and then I will talk to you guys later What time is right now?

Well, I've got a lot done today Um, and then I have Pilates at 5 45 gonna get my nails done tonight I might sell tan We'll see, you know, you never know what's gonna happen For some reason this I can't shut up When it comes to the camera right now, so I'm gonna go and get this stuff going get it done get it I can't shut up, but I also am not making any sense.
