When people ask if they should be a YouTuber tooā¦ ummmm howās your mental health? š - š± When @youtube asked for my approval to feature me last month, they sent along ācreator safetyā guidelines which were all about mental health and staving off mean comments with the pending influx of traffic. - Hereās the secret š¤« mean comments are few, but they do live rent free in my head longer than the positive ones. I hate it but I couldnāt control how I felt so I did two things: 1ļøā£ Gave my virtual assistant the job of deleting nasty comments before I could see them. Mind you, I donāt delete opposing view points, I simply have her delete ones that are a direct attack on me or sexually inappropriate. 2ļøā£ I prioritize responding to my PHOTO INSIDERS community first so that I bathe my headspace in a positive environment before addressing a somewhat hostile one (if I address them at all). Itās not only helped me feel better but Iām giving my energy and attention to those that want it for the right reasons vs the jerks that donāt deserve it. - Message me the words āphoto insidersā if you want more information on that community. - I have so much love for all of you that say nice things for me to concentrate on when Iām down about the mean ones. āŗļø - #meantweets #youtubetrolls #trolls #youtuber
