I wanted to tell you that you're not alone🥺 I've been struggling with my mental health a lot for the last 3 years & sometimes I just use micellar water to remove the make up, sometimes I struggle to do basic hygiene etc... I finally found a therapist recently after waiting for months. I'm optimistic & really grateful because my Public health insurance is covering it. I feel privileged, even though I know that it shouldn't be a privilege 🥺

Recently, I’ve been going through a lot personally as well and found it hard to do skincare and take care of myself. Knowing that we are doing our best, even when it’s using a makeup wipe, or ONLY using 1 or 2 products instead of an entire 10 step routine, is what’s important. Much love, Cass!

Great tip on the micellular water foam! I’ve been using the Simple brand one cause others break me out…. It’s basic, does it’s job, etc. And sometimes, yes, this is the most we can do but it’s better than not washing your face for days! Compostable wipes are awesome! I’ve been thinking of getting a compost bin for the bathroom cause i already use compostable floss (Treebird) & bamboo qtips)😊 (I’m so very lucky to live in an area that has a compost pickup along with garbage/recycling)

    So I really feel this. I appreciate you doing these videos, with raw true facts about yourself. It's not easy to tell the world you're depressed. I think it's sad that you felt the need to say "at least I slept" because you knew people were going to come at you. It's horrible this is the world we live in. Clinical depression drained me of all of my energy. Really, going to the bathroom was a chore. I just didn't feel like getting up. But also, having no energy and being so tired somehow goes away when it's time to go to sleep. The brain does not want to turn off at bedtime... Or turn on during the day. Being depressed and trying to sleep is truly it's own type of heck. With depression, being alone with your own thoughts is the absolute worst. Like truly, on another level of torture! So is being completely depleted of energy but also not being able to sleep. So IDK if you've experienced any of this, I would guess you have though.. because somehow depression symptoms tend to be similar for everyone. It's literally a chemical imbalance in your brain. So medicine that can supply those missing chemicals do help. IDK if you take medicine or believe in it because I've legit seen like one other video of yours before this one. The problem with medicine to help depression is the journey to find which medicines actually will help. It also takes over a month with each medicine to even see if it works or not. I highly recommend you do the gene sight testing. It doesn't work perfectly but it does help narrowing down a neverending list of antidepressants. Which probably is the worst thing to hear when you're depressed. I'm sorry, truly I am! It does get better though. It's a journey, and it's legit the worst feeling in the world (grief as well). I'm not like a psychiatrist or anything, not even a therapist. But like so many people I have been depressed. I still struggle with it. I think that people are so mean because we as humans tend to forget the negative ways we felt? Like someone who has gone through depression simply telling you something stupid like "you think your depression is bad.. you don't even know", "keep your head up girl", or the ever popular "you need to go in the sun and you'll feel better". Like wtf? Ffff no. Being depressed makes you not ever care about what the sun is doing. Taking a shower or brushing your teeth is a chore. But my point is that even if they've been through it, they really don't remember what it felt like for the most part, because they're not currently feeling it. People also tend to do this with someone else being sick. Just be like "oh that sucks"... But if they are sick it's the end of the world and they're wondering why you don't care more or do more for them. It's really insane how it works with the majority of people. I'm guilty too though lol, I've broken up with someone who was horrible for me... Only to find myself wanting them back weeks later, until I went back and then remembered instantly all of the reasons I had no business going back. Ive also seen it happen alot with addiction problems. Someone gets clean and stays clean and rebuilds their life. As soon as someone offers them that substance they start thinking that they can go take it an be fine. What's the worst that can happen? Only to remind themselves as soon as they loose the feeling they got from the substance. They thought they could do it once and be fine.. they forgot that was how the addiction started in the first place. Okay so so sorry for the book, I just really want you to know that you're not alone in this. I also know how much effort and energy that you had to create out of nothing to make this video, or go to CVS and target, and to do your makeup. Your effort is admirable. That's why Im taking the time to write you this novel, that you may not even have the time to read lol. But thank you for the brutal honestly about mental health. I do like that you're not trying to sugar coat your life like so so many other people on KZread or tiktok, social media in general. I really hope you find the balance of life that works for you to help cure your depression. Just remember, when you do beat this, you deserve every single second of peace and happiness that comes from getting to the other side of this hell hole of a brain ffff that makes your own mind attack you. You're already super strong for being able to post these videos or even get out of bed at noon. But you will be stronger when you finally see the other side, where the literal greenest grass is. Have a great day. Again, so sorry about the book lol I have ADHD (if you can't tell), so my thoughts were just flowing and I felt the need to share with you. ❤️

    Oh Cassandra. You are very much loved by your followers. I hope you begin to feel more yourself again soon. Recently I was reflecting on what my life was like before antidepressants, and my life was so gray. It was so sepia, like you talked about. It is so hard to come out of that. I am very proud of you for seeking help. It will be better soon. Hang in there and keep looking for the tender mercies in your life.

I love how far you go to actually learn and educate all of us for FREE. You make the weight of corporate greed and finding what products are actually healthy and affordable, bearable. I hope you find even a fraction of the peace of mind and relief you bring to so many ❣️🙏

    yup i always see those suss skincare bottles at Marshall’s and Winners here in Canada.. I ALWAYS skip them.. I’ve been using the Yuka app and Dkin Bliss app to scan products and go through ingredients and those sketchy bottles have TERRIBKE ingredients.. I love using those apps tbh scanning my products and not using anything that’s rated lower than 80% has drastically helped my skin.. I used to have BAD acne, blackheads and oily skin all my life and it’s changed so much

    I like the Glow and Clarity Tonics. I definitely recommend the "blue one" next time you're in the mood for an exfoliating toner. My favorite way to use miceller water is for my AM cleanse. I use it through my T-zone and follow with a rinse. It's quick, gentle and more thorough than a rinse alone.

    The blue version of those orange capsules (hyaluronic acid based instead of vitamin C...) has actually been super helpful in wound healing for me! Long story, but i have two feeding tubes that started leaking cause of weight loss... leaking feeding tube= acid leaking = acid burns... like 2nd and 3rd degree burns. And those capsules have helped heal the 2nd degree burns with traditional meds (silvadine) have been so fricken helpful with keeping the wound hydrated but not seeping! I was too terrified to try any of the other types though like vitamin C or ones with actives. Ive also tried other skin care of no names (like right before YT algorithm led me to you during pandemic. . . Bless the algorithm. Really. Bless it for bringing me to you) and it destroyed my skin.. it was supposedly niacinamide. Nopeeeeeee. Dont think there was an ounce of it in it! Also, CosRX has TJ Maxx and co.. as a listed approved manufacturer and has been great to find the trending products when no one else had them!

    One of my favorite products I've found (as an aesthetician) is manuka honey moisturizer. Costs about 25 bucks on Amazon but has been one of the best things I've found for my extremely itchy sun damaged skin (never got sunburned but I had a 3 month outdoor project this past summer). Fav sunscreen as someone who hates wearing sunscreen is the paulas choice non-greasy sunscreen. I can wear it on my face and anywhere else and not feel gross.

    Hi Cassandra, sorry to hear you're struggling! 🤗 I've had a horrible year which just recently started to get a bit better, but still deal with a lot of anxiety and very bad sleep (I actually have anxiety at the thought of going to sleep because I know it's such a struggle, sometimes I feel like I get a sort of "mini panic attacks") - I think taking ashwagandha and magnesium help a bit (I had stopped ashwagandha and the anxiety and sleep issues are worse). It's tough out there for most of us, I guess - so sending you lots of good thoughts and hope things will be better!
