This reminds me of my one sorta viral video

TLDW: constantly watching "soothing" videos as a form of trauma healing (it's actually likely only symptomatically addressing the problem and not tackling the root cause, like you said)

(and agree, btw, in those types of soothing videos. similar with тАЬmotivationalтАЭ videos.)

I havenтАЩt posted in a while ЁЯШЕ want to get back to it but more visa style vlogging to my future self kind of thing (I did a lot of gimmicky stuff that I no longer want to do but as you can imagine, we all need to go through these phases ЁЯШЧ)

Would you consider posting videos?? I would love to watch Jibran videos.
