  13. I always played a character trying to fit or not be the odd one out. So therefore your example about actually being a silly goober on the inside that's actually rather carefree resonated deeply. I would even argue that this statement almost describet to a T. I always was a bit "weird" is what I used to tell me myself but through my depression and the accompyning therapy I learned that I wasn't weird I was just different just like everyone else. The difference was though that I needed help in order "to fit in". I had to get speech therapy until i was 7/8 years old because I still had difficulties speaking at 5. And throughout my Childhood I always had "advanced/compliacted" intrests compared to my peers. At age 5 I wanted to learn all about Dinosaurs there was, their anotomy, their diet, the build-up, etc.. Around 9/10 I became infactuated with space and astronomy and wanted to learn all about what different physics laws dictated the universe, how the universe came to be and where it's headed, what black holes are, how stars are formed and what their life cycle is, and way more. To this day Astronomy is a large interest of me and I keep up with new findings. What these rather complex interest did for me as a child though was less then ideal. It made me an easy target an my diagnosis with minor epilepsy only added to that. All that as well as some other factors led to me becoming depressed and fighting against it and learning to deal with it from the age of 12/13 onwards until now (26) and probably for the foreseeable future. But the great thing is, I don't mind it anymore. I was always a introspective individual as well as someone who liked intriguing and intellectually demanding topics. But because I was so preoccupied with trying to fit in and being accepted by others I completely lost myself and as a consequence of that I started to dislike being social and combined with my depression I started to retreat more and more. And because of that I always thought I was just an introvert. However I have since come to understand that I am not really an introvert I just want to connect with people on a deeper level but still find more peace in solitude and spending time in nature and being introspective. Nonetheless I have since found great people that I can connect with and that I actively want to socialize with. Don't get me wrong I would still say I somewhat introverted but I just like with many other things I used to see as flaws I now see them as qualities I have. My last therapist helped me alot in gaining this perspective, especially when it came to just expressing myself and accepting who I am and appreciating what makes me me. I remember him aksing me: "What would a diagnosis regarding wheter you're autistic or not change about what you want to do or how you want to carry yourself?". It made me realize that even though my depression was a defining factor for 13 years it is not all I am and there's alot of nuiance to me as well as all other things. Since then I have been learning alot of things about myself and what makes me into the person I am and god damn so far I am having a blast eventhough it sometimes can be very exhausting. So to finish of this little wall of text, Thank you Jake for being who you are and making this video! You made re-realize a really important fact I learned and giving me renewed energy and drive to keep going and discover myself, the world and people that I want to be part of my life.

  43. Hey there! I love the energy and effort you put into your content—it really shines through. 😊 As someone who's been working as a full-time YouTube consultant for 10 years, I just wanted to share a few thoughts that might help. You're absolutely right about the importance of uploading consistently, but I think there's more to it. Simply uploading tons of videos isn't always enough. One thing that could really elevate your channel is honing in on a clear niche (I hate this word, but its a required evil these days) Right now, it feels like your target audience shifts because your videos cover a lot of different topics week to week. Instead of focusing too much on the quality of a single video, I'd suggest putting more emphasis on thumbnails and titles—make them about what the viewer will gain, like ā€œhow this benefits you.ā€ (just flip, I did this, to You can do this) - trust me a random commentor, it works super well - Also, consider incorporating keywords into your titles. For example, adding something like ā€œYouTubeā€ could help with discoverability. If not, literal youtube just sees "videos" and that could be to any platform. Oh and ignore shorts they never do anything frankly (based on like 1,000 clients ive had and a few 30m plus shorts we put out, which made some decent bank, but never going to replicate it). One last thought: try to create a common thread between your videos. If a viewer enjoys one, they'll want more of the same, which is what encourages them to subscribe. Your topics, like addiction and not liking YouTube, are super interesting, but as a viewer, it’s a little hard to know what to expect next. By aligning your content around a consistent theme or keyword, you’ll build a stronger connection with your audience. Just my two cents! Keep up the great work—you’re doing awesome, and I can see how much heart you put into this, which is just fantastic.
