When I go to the movies alone, I take a clipboard so everyone thinks I'm a professional movie reviewer and not an awkward friendless loner.

[PaulDanielGolban]

This is an extraordinary advice! It means so much to me! Thank you, Tyler!

"Comparison is the thief of joy." -- A quote I found that has helped me a lot!

[FarFromFilm]

**Sees the title** Lol what?! Tyler you're not a loser, you're amazing! You probably have one of the best creator to viewer relationship on YouTube! Your enthusiasm is infectious and I can't help but smile when I see your videos! You were one of my main inspirations when I decided to make my videos and I love it! So thanks a lot! Much love from England<3

thank you! I'm going though a depression and I have suicide thoughts. I feel shitty almost 24/7. That kinda help a bit. It made me really think over everything. Maybe I'm not a complete loser. I'm 14 and I compare myself to grown up ppl. I just want to be famous and make ppl happy and entertain ppl by performing for them but I'm too young. I'm trying to get that in my brain but it just won't work. I always tell myself that I'm a Loser if I mess up something. Anything. Any little thing. It's horrible and I can't do anything against it. I know it's wrong but I still can't help my thoughts.

Ok this is so stupid, but feeling shitty. Typed in "Tyler Oakley happiness." Because out of all the people in my life, and on the Internet, I still see you as being a huge ball of sunshine. And it may not mean much, but your words kinda made my day a little brighter. So thank you. 😅💙

I just feel like this video is exactly what I needed at this point of my life. I've been undergoing so much pressure this past months due to exams and I'm so stressed. And all this videos that you make always manage to make me forget that for a little while, and motivate me to do the best that I can. Literally Tyler, you might not be going to see this, but you've helped me through so much things, and keep helping me on a daily basis, I am so so thankful and grateful for the advice that you keep giving us, and for all this time when you made me realise that I was actually able to reach for higher goals in my life. It might not make sense to anybody but me, but Tyler, I really want to say thank you, you are one of the greatest person alive, and I really thank God for that.

This video means a lot to me, I've been very ill with something called CFS for the past year now, I no longer leave my house and my friends don't bother with me because when I do leave my house, I have bad anxiety or just feel very ill and want to come back home. 
I've been diagnosed with depression because of it all, and it sucks, not going to lie. I am overweight, feel disgusting and just like a loser in general. My doctors have said that to start overcoming the illness, I need to try and get into the right mindset and change my ways. 

Yesterday I went for an audition at a popular music college in my city, I never thought that I would be accepted and I thought that it was all going to come crashing down on me, but it turns out that they thought I was a nice person and good at playing, so they accepted me. I'm going to be dyeing my hair in the next few weeks, getting the piercings that I want and trying to lose weight so that I can buy fabulous clothes and stop comparing myself to everyone who I see around me that is my age and living their lifes. 

Love you Tyler. ❤❤

You ALWAYS makes me feel better. Like in one video hmm in 2012, you talked about all these new things that you had accomplished in your life. So I wrote a comment saying that you made me feel better because of your success and your happiness and that I wished it would happen to me too. And you answered:'' I'm sorry that life is currently tough. It gets better. My life used to suck and I was really distraught, back in high school and even recently I've been low. Just know that you are going to accomplish so much in your life - and someday, I'm going to hear YOUR update on all the cool things you're doing, and I'll be happy for how lucky your life is! <3'' Two years later I finally thought I was happy and that this would be the best year of my life.. But here I am again, stuck in my own thoughts of being a loser. Thank you again for cheering me up and make me understand that I can do this! x

[TheRyanLamont]

I love these little advice/anecdote videos that you do Tyler! :)

That's exactly the video i needed right now in my life, I wonder how you do to be THAT awesome.. I feel like everytime something happens in my life, you are just.. HERE perfectly in time

[am-geyb]

I have self-confidence issues, I suffered from depression (like diagnosed one), I have anxiety, and I'm at a school where everyone is so self- confident and they are all good at something, good looking, and then there's me just standing there without being noticed, just feeling useless as I've been called, and like honestly Tyler I want to thank you a lot because thanks to you I feel better, like this kind of videos help me a lot and they cheer me up in a way that I just forget all the shit that's going on my head, so I really wanted to thank you. I love you. Thanks for everything

On a scale of 1-100 I have 45 anxiety and 84 depression. It sucks. Sometimes my anxiety acts up and I just feel so bad and I don't talk to anybody and I just feel like crying. The depression doesn't go away. I feel like anxiety and depression go together in a way... I'm always anxious, always worried, and always thinking that somebody is judging me. I bite my nails because of these horrible disorders. I hardly eat at all. All I had today was some strawberries and a glass of water. It's 2:52 pm. I have self-harmed and I did stop. I'm 10 days clean. At school I put on this brave front and I'm "the popular one" who all of the boys have a crush on, but inside, I'm broken. My teacher actually talked to my mom about me biting my nails because she says I look anxious. I don't understand why people will just mind their own business. I know that she's just trying to help, but I'm getting sick of it. Why can't people just realize that I'm a lost cause?

[Bambiivlogs]

I feel like this a lot of the time ... but then I remember how lucky I am and how far I've come and I feel a bit better about myself. Thanks for another great video! 

[saraalves]

I only discovered you a few days ago. Every day I watch 1 or 2 of your videos and it always puts me in such a better mood. You seem like such a good person to hang out with and you have the best laugh ever. A big thank you and hug from Portugal, for making my daily routine a little bit better.

Thank you Tyler. With my obsession of Disney, which is considered for little kjds at my school, I get made fun of a lot. And the wkrst part is, its behind my back. This video has helped me a lot. In fifth one girl didn't like me and turned the whole school against me. I'm in 7th grade now. There are a few brave sould willing to say hi to me in the hallway or listen to my preformance in music or give me a compliment. Those people are like you. They give other people the courage to be nice to someone else. I have feeling that in 2 weeks, after Thanksgiving and then my trip to Disney, things will change. Everyone at my school watches you and I think that you've given the courage to at least one more brave soul. You've made my year by making this video. I thank you for that because if I just get one more hello in the hallway or I'm not picked last for sports then I'll know that they are brave to talk to me at all. As I said before most people just say stuff about me behind my back. Even if I get an insult I'll be pleased that they had the courage to talk to me. One last time I would like to thank you for giving me more brave souls. That's the most important thing to me. I think that if enough people will get the courage to talk to me, then I'll get the courage to audition for my school talent show. I've auditioned for plays before but only gotten chorus. Anyway I wish there were more people like you in this world. Giving the gift of courage is the most important thing which you do in every video.

This made my day. I just started a private catholic school, and it's my first year here. I feel like a loser here since I'm different from everyone, at least that;s what i think. Ahh i love you so much, this made me feel so much better.

[sydbeacham]

Tyler, this video means so much to me. I have had a really hard time knowing who I am and who I want to be and I feel so inferior to everyone. It gets really hard with all the crap that goes on in my life to be positive and see myself in a good way. You are such an amazing person and I love knowing that there are people like you who are so sure of themselves and weren't always and I love knowing that even though you don't know any of your subscribers and you don't make these videos for us specifically, they mean so much and are so profusely personal. You made my day and I find so much comfort in the little things that you say like this. When I see people like you, being successful and happy and so proud of who they are, it gives me hope that I will be okay and that it's worth sticking around until tomorrow or the next day. Your videos are fantastic and I love this one especially. Thank you Tyler Oakley. Thank you so much!

[MsCivilwars]

I seriously have been needing this video.
 Being a senior in high school right now and being surrounding by people who already know what they're gonna be doing for their life careers just leaves me feeling like a loser for not accomplishing or knowing as much as them.

Thank you, Tyler!! <3 :  )

This is very obvious advice, but very important. People often forget this fact!

No matter how hard you try, YOU CANNOT BE SOMEONE ELSE.  So put all your efforts in to being you, and you will shine. I promise.
