Andra 23 ; I learned that two things caused most of my problems; Memory & Imagination. I was getting upset (be that rage or tears) by the memory of abuse from Toxic family. Ditto by thinking of what MIGHT happen if I allowed these people back into my life. You must understand, In 2016, after a lifetime of abuse, I cut those Toxic people from my life. I went 100% NO CONTACT. Yet the worst depression came a year later. I continued reliving all their toxic behavior. Decade's of it! Then I realized it wasn't necessary. I was wasting my freedom from those people by thinking about all the times they had wronged me. I was getting upset at these Memories. I started reminding myself, they are only memories now. And I will NEVER allow those toxic people back into my life. So STOP thinking about them! Think about something else. They are NOT worth all the effort. They are TOXIC, & they are NEVER going to change! Stop wasting my freedom from them by thinking about them. Likewise, STOP playing WHAT IF, because they will NEVER AGAIN be allowed in my life. Don't waste your time or emotions on Memory & Imagination. Live your life. Make NEW memories to replace the old ones. No, you will not completely forget the bad. Just don't focus on it. Think of the good times in your life, if you must look back. Better to look forward. Move away from the bad, so you aren't around the reminders everyday. Take no reminders with you. Start fresh. Make new memories. Try not to look back. It's a waste of time, energy, & effort. So is playing WHAT IF.... Memory & Imagination. They can be your friend or your enemy. For me, they were the enemy. But no longer. I focus on the good times from my past, & I don't play what if... And if I find myself thinking about my Toxic family, I remind myself I cannot truly allow myself to get upset by Memory & Imagination. It's a waste of time. I hope this helps. Best Wishes.

We are kinder to others because we don't know them. Forgiving the flaws of others is easier beacause they are not our own, we don't face their trials, we don't bleed their blood, we don't live with their shame. So we can pity them, we can comfort them, we can forgive them because we'll never now them the way we know ourselves.

Loving myself is probably the hardest challenge for me because my inner war ultimately pits me against myself. Criticism and compliments from the outside are fine and dandy, but no one gets me the way I do, and so they simply pass me off as "weird." Sometimes, I may appear apathetic or too blunt with my expressions, which usually leads to misinterpretation and subsequent drama. For instance, finding humor in the middle of a medical emergency to null the possibilities and thoughts of death and doom. But I'm the only one who knows well how and why I behave. Regardless of how I respond, all forks in the road run to one grand question: "Did I do right by myself, and if not, how could I change?"

After 5+ years of being friends with this other guy. Only now did i open up and share some of my true self. Turned out to be well received and i'm glad i did it. Feel a lot closer now.

I've yet to do anything more difficult in my life than trying to get back up from years and years of ever-growing self-hatred. Thanks to this channel, some really thoughtful comments and a couple of books I've finally made some progress, even though it's still pretty minor when considering the big picture. It feels good, but damn is it hard and easy to slip up!

All i want is a good caring friend but nowadays "friends" make excuses that they are too busy to hang out with u(not even 1h a week or in a month, u can see that u arent important to them anymore). I am really caring, friendly and like hanging out but since they get distant and don´t put effort keeping the friendship alive then WHY DO U EVEN BOTHER??? Social media has RUINED EVERYTHING. People don´t even give compliments anymore which can make your mood better, boost confidence etc.

The M how many of you are inside your body? it happens you hate the "me" but in deep love companionship with "I" or the other way around. if you can arrange The Personal Peace Summit... negotiate with both of you (mind,heart,will and body) that you're ONE.

This is what I really now! Sometimes I forget to be friends with myself at times.

Another great video! I often hold my own hand when I feel like I need to be my own friend. It's a symbolic gesture saying " I have my own back" and it often leaves me feeling better

I love the art. I'm just frustrated that I found these videos years after I started doing most of what's in them. I'm glad that these videos exist to guide others, so that they don't have to go it alone.

Thank you Alain De Botton, you have helped me through countless moments of self-doubt, breakups, and loneliness. I was never taught how to process my emotions (I did not even know that was an option) and I’m glad I can take initiative to do so with the School of Life.

3:28 that rain cloud and gesture with the umbrella is such a relatable metaphor

Thank you for this! Thinking of yourself as a friend to yourself puts things in such a different perspective, especially in times when you're being particularly hard on yourself. It'd make life so much easier if we always treated ourselves like a good friend would. Thanks for reminding us!

Oh my god thank you so much for making this video. Recently i felt like no one's really care about me, and i stressed a lot on how i was losing my trust in my own ability. I feel like im not capable of doing anything the way i expect myself to be.This video gave me enlightenment and comfort. I'll try my best to be my very own best friend :)

Let's just take a moment to appreciate how beautiful this animation is.

Having that point of view, being a friend to your own self can truly change your life. It gives you that distance you need to evaluate situations and be sensible about what happens in your life. You just become less harsh to yourslef and that's a truly beautiful act. Great video as always thanks to the School of life ❤

How true that we overlook ourselves in so many diff ways... like nurturing, forgiving, accepting...

You’ve done more for me than a thousand therapy session combined ever could

Yes very good. I now imagine a virtual friend who follows me round all the time and gives me encouragement 🤓

I think this video has made me truly comprehend what it means to love yourself. What seemed so out of reach before was merely a tool I already possessed, I just never have thought to use it for myself.

I don't know how to thank you but these videos have helped me so much with getting out of a rut. It's nice to be reminded that life is difficult, success isn't straight forward and self compassion is as needed as self criticism. Thank you!

Dylan Salvitti you'll use this method of learning until it exhausts you (or vice versa) and realize you have a choice. to choose how you think and feel about yourself despite the circumstance. to honestly be conscious and try and say the statement you just did is hardly possible, simply because you know it not to be true. fear and false ego feed from your negativity. deep down you know you are lovable, you are loved and worthy of it, and what you "deserve" if anything is true acceptance for who you are, which you can start by owning where you are and accepting/forgiving the pitfalls, faults, you think you have or have experienced "screwing up" is heavily and badly stigmatized. failure is the recipe for success but peeps like to put on this show of invulnerability or say that losing is bad. our culture has us confused with its perceived vulnerability and fear

Dear people who suffered emotional neglect in childhood and also everyone else, You in no way were responsible for the fallacies of your parents. When we are abused as children we tend to think we don't deserve love and kindness from people around us and end up sabotaging their efforts. Remember that you are unique, you are beautiful, you are lovable. Love yourself unconditionally, shower yourself with love for being you. See you will make mistakes but if you love yourself you will find the strength to say "It's okay, its human nature to be like this". The assurance from yourself will give you joy even when things go very wrong. You will be your own lover, friend and parent, glowing with inner warmth, helping people discover their own glow and helping them love themselves. This will give you the zeal to live, and even in darkest times, you will be grateful for your existence. Love yourself the way you want people to love you and never once will you feel that life is not worth living. Keep glowing, Love, Human, Earth, 2019 P.S: The message of self-love is urgent. It might prevent someone from committing suicide, it helped me.

Simply giving false answers aren't making my 'best friend ' learning what she did wrong and how a failure she actually is. I want myself to be the best version of me. My ' best friend ' being at her very best.

This channel is just too beautiful... I feel incredibly lucky to have found its videos

i would rather write you all in "school of life" a personal email of sorts. but this video is okay too i guess. ill have to say that you have helped me find answers and solutions to most of my personal problems and existential crisis. ive gone through most of my life in missery. being a self loathing, self destructive philosopher, I have not been very kind to myself. both mentally and physically. only the last couple of weeks Ive learned to look in the mirror and feel something else than disgust. and believing in myself and what i am capable of. Ive got to thank you for providing this content, and for being a source of information for people like me. to help bring out the best in ourselves. Best, Tom

Nothing better than School of life, on a bad day or a good day 🤓

Be yourself. Figure out what you love and do it everyday. Ignore what other people think, and you'll notice that the right people will begin to gravitate towards you. You'll also start to notice that you care less and less about what others think, because you're perfect the way you are.

You are a good friend indeed

Friends acknowledge our difficulties & hold on to a memory of our good virtues .

When you're so lonely you try to befriend yourself, and you decline

The only way I can think of this as being a dose of depression is that one may not have someone to consider as a friend. But even then it's OK, because one will always have itself waiting to be befriended.

I definetely love how the draws are enganched

these videos make me cry

Thanks for the reminder :)

I don't know how to keep a conversation engaging, barely know how to talk to ppl

I've often felt like that. Practice will help. I suggest you research a list and visit some area Toastmasters clubs, then join one (or an Agora Speakers club). These are non profit groups that don't advertise much so few know they even exist let alone how beneficial they are. Gaining new skills and interacting with positive, encouraging people makes most people feel better! It's fun and you help others too. Many felt the same as you. Research a list of questions to ask OTHERS. Most people like to talk about themselves. Sounds odd but they'll remember YOU being an interesting person if you get them to talk about themselves. You get to practice listening skills which are even more important.

The book "intimate connections" by david burns addresses this and it's not because you're boring or dull that you feel the need to bail, it's your fear of intimacy and lack of self esteem. Give yourself a fucking hug and chant "i'm a fucking winner/I'm unstoppable/the world can suck my nuts" every day until you believe yourself in the mirror as corny as it sounds. Good luck buddy.

Practice active listening. Pick up what your conversation partner is talking about and pull the strings on it. Engage them by asking about their opinions and their plans on what they mentioned. Challenge them so as to generate banter. Most of all: practice makes perfect. No one becomes a master speaker by sitting home alone. Go out there and makes mistakes. It's the only way to learn.

dabidoe is it a good read?

What a wonderfully charming way to tell the story of such a common human experience. One of life's greatest ironies is that we often find it so hard to be a friend to the one who needs our friendship the most, ourselves. 🌟⭐️💫

Know a lot of people (especially myself) that can relate to this thanks School of Life!!

TSL has the best video editing on YT.

I always thought of my subconscious as my best friend I even talk to my self and it helps me though though times but I didn't wanted to sound like I'm crazy to others so I never tell

It's ok they are probably busy talking to themselves as well 🤗

I'm here after a lot of your videos. I've learned a lot and your advices will accompany me through all my life. I am now a true friend to my self. So you reached exactly the pourpose of what you're doing, and the least I can do to thank you is to tell you succeeded in changing a person's life. Again, whit all my heart, thank you,

Those last words really got to me

I just need someone who can understand me even though I cannot understand myself sometimes. 😅

Next time when someone says I drink too much booze, I'll just say "It's okay. It's for a friend."

That’s the battle field, it’s in the mind. To take captive your thoughts and bring them under submission. Friendship way is another good way of doing it each time.

I've started to tell myself... "It's okay buddy. We all make mistakes. We're only human You're a great person. " And it does help. Though I do find (and try to catch myself) falling back into beating myself up.

I like the animation style, and the message is spot on. Anyone struggling with self esteem and self care should remember that you can't really love anyone else unless you love yourself first.

I don't know, it seems that every time I try to be a friend with myself, I end up being a friend with benefits.

We need our friendship with ourselves the most coz no one has lived and gone through things exactly like us :).thanks for the video .Really good animation and conveys the message clearly !

Give yourself a Hug . Done.

Because people are capable of change, the you that tried to kill you may not be the same you that wrote this three weeks ago.

Hi, The problem is that I don't have any close friends so I don't have anyone to compare this too. How do you open up and bring people into your life? I can go a whole week without talking to a real person:/ Maybe I'm spending too much time in the computer? But I don't have anything else, Thanks.

Gaining new skills and interacting with positive, encouraging people makes most people feel better! It's fun and you help others too. Many felt the same as you. When you've got more confidence, then go on Meetup and find clubs that interest you, or start your own. Find your 'tribe' (See "Tribes" by Seth Godin). Chances are there are others out there with similar interests or causes.

Hi Holly, Sometimes it just takes finding the right kind of friends. I'm part of a therapy group we meet once a week and we are all going through different things but we all have our own challenges and we are able to share our own uniqueness and we all learn from each other. I hope to be able to make some friends from these diverse and interesting people. I suggest you give it a try. Thanks.

Hi, Thanks for the advice, I never heard of those groups but they sound ideal and well worth the effort. Like a good place to start. Thanks.

Thank you. This is just in time. Feeling especially down tonight, and have been watching the video for several times. Thank you.

Thank you School of life!! Helping humanity go back to humanity! ❤❤❤❤
