Your mum is so hilariously unsympathetic but sympathetic at the same time. It just reminds me of my own and makes me so happy!

Harriet I wish my family was like dodie's lmao 😂

her sister is like 12. she has a channel it's called heddy weddy

her mom sounds so young??? i was confused bc i knew her sister couldnt drive??? she sounds dodie's age

Harriet yes I thought that she was like the best person to talk to Dodie at the time because if Dodie is like me, then she also needs someone to be a bit straight forward with her.

My mum is exactly the same! They always know what's best :)

Haha she was a bit more sentimental when I needed her to be. She knows it's good for me :)


its so cool that in your family you can just talk about your feelings, and they'll listen and help you. I've never had that experience with my family.

Yeah, we're a bit avoidant here. I wanna change that with my family

My mom constantly tells me she's my safe place and a person to talk to but whenever I do she'll freak out cuz she thinks I'm asking her to help me but I just want to vent. She feels like she needs to go yell at the person or thing that's made me sad. I just

Me too if I ever did tell what I feel  they would just turn it into a life lesson when I clearly don't need it at the moment. Also cause I'm angry at them when I accidentally came out to them through a letter they said it was "okay" but they're clearly in denial.

Michelle Province same. it's kind of hard

I use to think that way too, but then I suddenly started spewing out my feelings to my mom and my dad (my brother is a sarcastic shithead, so we usually just make atrocious puns together), and I noticed that the awkwardness that I expected from talking about things like these never came around.
I supposed that all families were like this then, but as I see here, nope. I hope that you can at least once have a not-cringe deep talk with your family because I find it to be the thing I most appreciate about my family, and I wouldn't wish feelings of hatred towards family for nobody, not even my worsts enemies.
I hope y'all the best!

Michelle Province same. whenever she said something remotely deep my inner self was cringing in anticipation of how awkward its gonna be but the awkwardness never came... i am not used to this

Just Michaelea aw, thank you so much. you too xx

Juliette Myers Yeah, honestly, idk how I would've gotten through tough times w/o YouTube. But if you or anyone here in this comment section ever needs to talk, don't be afraid to message me if you wanna. :)

Just Michaelea same!! I love that our generation has the internet because it's so much help for family crap

This just made me appreciate YouTube generally because we can experience those things even if its not necessarily with our own family but with our YouTube family, ya know? It was really nice to watch this and feel apart of something so life changing in Dodie's life. :)

Michelle Province same, it was strange to watch

Michelle Province I can only talk to my mom. when it comes to talking I have just been locked up so long I can't open up to my friends or family except my mom.


Memories! I remember filming there arghhhhhh everything is changing


Wow there was some incredible wisdom being said in the car. "It is a shit home" was a personal favourite.


Did anyone else cry when she threw her stuff in the fire

Omg it just broke my heart.<br>First I thought that "good that you have that box with all the good memories, its good to save all of those good moments., no, what are you doing! what.. stop it ! no, this is not happening!! whaaat.. ... noooooooo"

Omg it just broke my heart.
First I thought that "good that you have that box with all the good memories, its good to save all of those good moments., no, what are you doing! what.. stop it ! no, this is not happening!! whaaat.. ... noooooooo"

Iris Blake I did the same thing once, cried for a couple days and learnt not to be so sentimental. Also, I threw my Teddy bear and all my diaries with "secrets".

I cried because I went through pretty much the exact same thing only a couple of months before she did.

i've been wanting to move for years and i know i need to get rid of things for that to happen, but i just cant. im such a nostalgic loser hoarder and i have kept like almost everyting i have ever owned, lol. i could never do that

When she showed the box I thought, "Oh that's so sweet, at least she can take that box of memories with her, it's quite small and it means so much." Then she threw it in the fire and I freaked :(

Yeah, I don't judge her but I could never do that. For me, that's kinda insane. What if you wanna look at that stuff again in 20 years when you've changed your mind? I dunno, I could never do that.

Iris Blake Any one else scream "DIGITIZE IT ALL FIRST! NOOOO!" As she dumped it on the fire? 😢 That way it becomes and awesome portable collection of memories for yrs to come!


I loved hearing Heddy in this video, she is so wise for her age. I hope she will be in another VEDIF.


Mums always know the right thing to say, your mum seems so sweet! 💗


I went through a similar situation and I totally get you. It's very very sad to leave a home and all of the memories you've build up in it, but time passes and although you might always be a bit nostalgic and sad you will eventually move on... Love you dodie <33

This video and her golden slumbers one make me cry like literally every time because I had to move from the place I had lived my entire life last January. So I totally relate.

my parents offered me to move my room to the basement when i get older so i have somewhere to stay before i move out and i can't even do that i have too many memories of my room now i can't bear to think of moving out gosh

Exactly! It's not just the place but the memories and the people you associate it with. It's hard.

So very true! Love your channel about a movie! Very creative!


Hedy is so intelligent and aware and just so good at wording things?? You must be such a proud big sister lol


i've been thinking about stuff like this for quite a while, i'm a super nostalgic person as well and i'm almost 19 years old and have grown up in the same house for 18 of those. i'm a trans kid and my dad is SUPER not accepting of the lgbt community and im about to transition medically, and i have no idea how he's going to react to that, so my mum and i are worried we'll have to move out? it's making me a real mess LOL<br>but yeah, i really relate to this video, even though the circumstances aren't the same. i'm sorry you have to say goodbye but glad you have such a supportive and wonderful family to talk with about it!!

Winslow Baril Good luck with everything. Don't stop being yourself. I hope everything will go well. ❤

TJACWatch aw man!! throwing stuff out from childhood is the worst ): but kudos to you for being strong through it even if its hard af

and unfortunately ive come out to my dad already and he has just sort of... denied that im trans? its really strange tbh, he probably thinks its a phase, but medically transitioning will change that !! thank u for ur kind words 💖 im glad you have a supportive family!!

Winslow Baril hey! I'm also trans and a painfully nostalgic person too. ❤ I've had to throw the majority of my childhood things away or give them to charity because we're moving soon, it's honestly devastating :( I've lived here my whole life (nearly 21 years) and the thought of leaving is crushing me.

I'm sorry about your dad :( my dad is supportive, but before he found out I was convinced he'd disown me because he is very bigoted and had said horrible things about trans people in the past. Maybe your dad will surprise you like mine did? Sometimes, when it's your kid it opens your eyes. Fingers crossed for you my friend.

Winslow Baril yes! all the best! it will be hard but you will get through it :)

I wish you the best of luck with your transition and your future! <3


I completely understand how you feel. I went through this when I moved out of my parents house when I was 18. Losing your home is such a unique kind of pain. I remember there was a 2 month time period where I had to go into numb mode. I couldn't think, or feel, or I knew I'd have a mental breakdown. While I knew I was fine, I'd visit a couple times a year, I let myself over think and make it so much worse. I'm going to let you know, the months after are the hardest. You'll feel sadness, and grief, and be so overcome with emotions you'll feel like you could die. Let me tell you, you won't. This sounds cliche but it will get better. It's been a year, and I am completely happy again. That year was the hardest of my life, I felt like I was sleep walking, not really living. You learn that you have multiple homes, which are not necessary buildings. My mom for example, is my home. My first apartment, that I decorated all by myself and sheltered me during the hardest part of my life, is my home. The coffee shop I work at, is my home. The track field, where I spent hours running, is my home. The house, my boyfriend and I rent is our home, where we want to start out lives. Home isn't a single place, its the feelings, and memories associated with something. Home is a feeling of love, and you can feel that anywhere. The feeling isn't buried under the house you left, It follows you, and sometimes falls a little behind, but don't worry, it'll catch up soon. <3

Julia Edwards You write beautifully, this was such a great comment!


your scooter is the cutest thing ever, but dodie i feel like you think you have to defend yourself for feeling nostalgic and sad about saying goodbye when you don't even owe anyone an explanation. it's okay to be sad. it's normal. you associate that house with childhood so obviously it will be hard to part with. keep your head up love!!


This morning I was sitting in class working on a chemistry test and all of the sudden my brain started thinking about my childhood and I was just like "oh fuck. My childhood is over. All of the things I did as a kid will never happen again. There are people I will probably never see again. I can't even remember what my elementary school best friend looks like anymore. Even my memory is flaking out on me. There are so many things that I will never ever ever be able to experience or recreate in any way. Fuck." And so I just sat there, staring at my computer screen, having a minor crisis is my head, all while I'm supposed to be completing a test.

+Hannah Elizabeth its dangerous for me i started internally freaking out, but as far as anyone else was concerned, i was just stuck on a question

haha i actually did that during a bio quiz once. i thought, "wow. i have one life. im one person. and once im gone, im gone and thats it. what happens when i die? will i know im dead? or will it just be like im sleeping? i will be forgotten a few years after anyway. and im wasting this valuable time on a bio quiz". so. yeah.


i'll never know how this feels seeing as i've never lived somewhere for longer than 4 years but hell am i still sad for you

tasminemma same. i lived in ireland for 7 (from when i was born up until the age of seven) and ever since have been moving to different countries every 3 or so years. sigh

yo I lived in a house for 17 years (well I wasn't there for the whole 17 though)

tasminemma yes me too... but for me it is still horrible to leave a house where you have been living for 4 years


I understand this to a point and I understand getting rid of things but I don't think I could ever get rid of certain pictures and notebooks from my childhood and from school like she did in the fire. That just is a little crazy. I want to look back to my notebooks and see what I was like in the future... She's strong for doing this. I bet a weight was definitely lifted.


You are so much stronger than you think my friend. I honestly can't believe you threw that box on the fire, I'm not sure if I could have. But you know what, at the end of the day .. it's just stuff. You will forever have the memories. You don't need to physically have something in your hands to be able to think about the way it made you feel or the place where it was from. Home to me isn't 4 walls and a roof, it's the place where the people you love are that make you feel safe and warm xx


I just microwaved some toothpaste and my whole house smells like mint and my dad is coming back soon heLP

@katie im 99% sure i was tryna make slime LMAO

four years later and you still haven’t said why lmao

Why tf would one need to microwave toothpaste...

Thanks for making me laugh in this emotional video 😂

UPDATE MY DAD CAME HOME LATER THAN I EXPECTED AND HE DIDN'T NOTICE

ofstarsandplanets - just fart a lot and hope they are all really smelly - should do for a cover up job :-) Blame the dog afterwards. Wot you have no dog - there's a floor in this plan - I've just fallen through it. Hahahaha

ofstarsandplanets  you just need to open all the windows and doors in your house so the smell goes away... and why did you do it and is it safe cause I want to try it so bad :D


astrid and hedy are gold i hope they'll be in some videos in the future


your mum seems so lovely in that she always seems to know when to be straightforward or when to be sympathetic


i actually started crying a bit when you put that box on the fire. that was so strong of you. i honestly don't think i could have done that.<br>i'm really fuckin sentimental too, stemming from a breakdown i had in high school where i buried all of my journals from age 6-15. biggest regret of my life. i feel like those memories are gone forever - even though i know the ones that really are important will always stick around in my head, it's hard to let go of the little things. letting go and moving on is a legitimate skill, and it gives me hope and makes me proud to see you getting better at it.

aww dodie you were so brave doing this! well done for actually facing it all. xx


Dodes, is your Mum as lovely as she sounds?

It's a shame the internet is such a distant place. Everyone should get to meet those they admire but sadly 'tis not always to be.


You're so open with your Mum, it's lovely to see! Like you just...talk, about the stuff that's bothering you. Please don't underestimate how helpful that can be! <3

(also I thought you were going to chuck the cat too and i had a tiny panic)


Having moved 5 times in 8 years to 4 differed states, I can relate

Try moving country's then move 5 times in said country but stop going to school at 13 and work in labor 11 years n counting

Jacketeer : idk i have moved around 12 times in my life and really do not care anymore...all my memories lost...all my kid toys...idk i feel empty just no emotions


hi dodie, hydrate yourself and take all the time you need and remember self care is always important. And it's also okay to be emotional sometimes, you are not in any way dramatic.<br>This goes out to everyone as well, be sure to always remember this💙💫

Lily N Rose I know this wasn't really for me but I really needed this, thank you x


This made me realize how lucky/unlucky I was to move around a lot. I never had a "childhood best friend" or a "childhood home". But then I get really jealous of people who've known each other since they were little, and have that one house to look back at old memories. Then again, I think it's good that I don't cling on to material as I do actual experiences, and I also love how easy it is to take a picture and have it in your phone forever. Idk. I have mixed feelings about it all. At least I get to say I've lived in 3 countries!


this is even sadder now that tufty is gone :( i watch this everytime i need a good cry


i really wish i could understand this kind of attachment. I literally kept nothing for more than a few months, and all my childhood books and stories and drawings and school things I binned as soon as I could. I'm really proud you went through this experience and you'll come out a better person on the other side of saying goodbye to all this stuff.


this was a bloody dreadful video to watch right now, im in my first year of uni and my parents just sold my childhood home so i have to move out of there in the next few weeks. it's happened very quickly and i struggle with change, im a nostalgic person and also was a happy kid. i understand how you feel :-(

Samantha Karime exactly! we moved last thursday and it's so weird :( hope you feel okay about it soon

Feel you, I just had to move out from the house I lived during 19 years and parents during 30 years last saturday, it feels like losing a part of your life, like if those years just vanished.


I was depressed and I started crying while listening to your cover of four five seconds, and listened to all the other sad songs then finally sick of losing soulmates on repeat many times and this went on for an hour. I'm finally done, and I just wanted to say thank you for singing and making me happy, and thanks for being with me throughout my darkest times. I love you. Thank you. <3


You probably aren't reading the comments because they make you upset, but if you're scrolling, please stop. It's important you read this. Literally this past year I've been going through the same thing as well. My parents were getting divorced and we moved out of my dads/childhood house around February 2016. You going through the same thing has eased my pain inexplicably. You talking about this has eased it as well. Yes, it is incredibly difficult saying goodbye to your childhood home, especially if you romanticize the past, but everything will be okay. You'll eventually be romanizing the present (key word: eventually). Anyways, just thank you so much for talking so openly about your nostalgia. It helps a shit ton :)

(also seeing people in the comments section having the same thing to say warms my heart)


well done dodie, cant imagine how hard that must've been


I love that you're  showing this to me... Literally everyone wants to move from the flat we're in but me cause it's home.. and I feel comfy and happy in it ...


I cried right when the box hit the fire. I struggle with derealization and letting go of the past, etc aswell. I know similarly to how you feel and I would have reacted the same way you did. Let yourself feel Dodie. Love you <3


When you put the "box of joy" in the fire, my heart dropped as if the gravity of this act just hit me...


When I first watched this video, I was very sad for Dodie and I hoped something like this would never happen to me, but today, it just did. it's very complex to explain and I don't really want to think about it, but I have to leave a large and important chunk of my life and memories behind. I understand exactly how Dodie feels, because the place I am saying goodbye to was so much of a part of my life it has become a large chunk of my identity and it feels as though all I am is being redefined. A place where I pictured my life to always be is a place I will now never see again. At the moment, I am trying to suppress  it and stop thinking about it, but I know that the breakdown is looming. I can't get out of my head that the last time we pulled out of the driveway to leave this place, with no cares or realisation of what was going to happen, would be the last time I saw that drive way.


i have derealisation and depersonalization. I've been home from school for a year and i still cannot go outside. I can't ever imagine leaving my last happy memory like you just did.<br>This was the most brave thing i've seen in a long time. I salute you.

sofiaisodd Ah, we needed more cake. Come, eat cake with us 🍰

Bryony The Overthinking Pigeon here I have come to supply more cake 🍰🍰🍰🍰

kindaoddmilla my thoughts are with you. idk why this comment is making me cry so much right now

While I don't always have the ability to express how I feel, I will always have a heart emoji to give. Have three 💜💜💜 also cake 🍰


Even with small sad videos like these I still find myself with a wee grin. dodie I don't really know what it is about your videos but I always feel a little bit of happiness. so thanks I guess X


This must have been hard, but I'm so proud of you Dodie! 💕 I hope you're well


Honestly, my friend is going through something like this and I may send her this video and tell her to watch it <3 Love you Dodie <3


As someone that has always been sentimental, I found this video inspiring and brave. It must've been so hard to do what you did today! Sending love and happy thoughts<3


I feel pretty much the same way about saying goodbye to the past. You are so strong for doing this, Dodie xx


I find it interesting how everyone has their own little thing that makes them so emotional, in your case, childhood and artifacts of the past I guess. Of course, it's perfectly fine to feel this way. I applaud your bravery to alleviate yourself of these objects you seemed to cling to for so long. Remember that childhood is not kept in material objects but in memories that you will always hold dear to you, even if you have nothing physical. I hope that this helps you let go of constant nostalgia and that you find happiness as you start looking to the future. Because you are a talented woman with a bright and happy future ahead of you, I'm sure of it! Oh and side note, I read the description and I just want to say that you're an excellent writer, you should write more stuff, you have a nice style.


This reminds me of exactly what I went through when I moved out of my childhood home (13 years living there - age 16). I was devastated at the thought that the place that was always there for me would no longer be there. But I realized that a home and a safe/go-to place is a room with someone who loves me; not the same 4 walls. Hope everything is okay now <3


I can't even imagine how hard it is to do something like this, I'm such a hoarder of memories as well so I'm so impressed with you. I hope you're doing okay xxx


This reminded me of "Thank You little room you served me well." I didn't think you were over dramatic, I would be a wreck as well , because there are so many memories in a home . ❤


I honestly dread the day my home won't belong to me & my family anymore so So many amazing memories & moments just gone no evidence of it at all. What will hurt the most is there's stuff that was put in the loft when I was a child & onwards that I will just break down with nostalgia when I see it again


Love you, dodie.
I'm usually a silent watcher (and I'm very behind on videos right now), but this video was too real for me to just pass by.
So, hi. Thanks for sharing. I love you.


Memories are fun but the prospect of creating memories is so much more fun.


There are moments in this video where I just want to hug and tell you that everything is gonna be alright <3 Much love to you dodie and hope will feel a bit better later :). Love your videos!


Oh Dodie. I'm sat here crying with you. It's 100% okay to feel every way you're feeling. We're here for you.


I'm so proud of you. you will get through this and you will be ok. much love 💛💛💛


Just well done, Dodie. <3 You're super brave and I feel this over and over again: Thank you so much for your constant state of being genuine and being vulnerable with us. I relate to how you feel, and I hope you're doing some extra good self-care. <3


I'm going through a similar thing, and I'm just appreciative of this video as a tool to help me frame the situation, thank you


When my parents divorced I had to say goodbye to so much stuff and no one has really done a genuine video on it so thank you


Totally feel for you - I know I'd have similarly sad feelings if/when my parents decide to move from my childhood home. :( But you do still get to take the memories with you, and lucky you have a sister to share this experience with. We are still so fortunate to be able to choose when to leave a home, unlike so many who are displaced and forced to leave due to war, natural disaster or abuse. Good to keep a perspective. But still sad! Much love to you both Xx


What a genuine, honest vlog. Thank you for being wonderful and being honest with your audience in the good times and in the bad times. I really enjoyed it. Love ya x


I know this was really hard for you to confront, and I'm really proud of you for getting through this. Much love


Thank you so much for making this video Dodie. I'm moving out of my childhood home as well and this video has helped me cope with it a little bit more.


I feel like losing your childhood home is similar to kicking out all of the stable support out from under you. Like, you spend years learning and growing off of memories and experiences in that one house, and suddenly that place is gone.

Holly Lmao same tbh, I've moved every couple of years since I was 7 so I've never really known anything permanent. However my mum hates hoarding so practically all of my childhood memories are kept in a shoe box.

See for me, i've lived in a total of like 11 homes so the only upsetting thing to me was leaving cities and friends. (I lived in 3 separate regions so i really only had to do that twice.) I never had a childhood home per say so my family just tended to keep all our toys and school papers for memories (over the years the size of our moving van practically quadrupled).

idk i wouldn't really know. ive moved 5 times in the past 3 years so i dont get attached

Silvy Zhou For someone like me the hardest thing to leave behind is family. Because I was being bullied a lot I mostly found my happiness in being alone or with family (also I was being very harsh to people again because of bullying so I didn't have many friends).

I had a pretty wonderful childhood. I do agree with you but in a way, I find it hard to say goodbye regardless. The thought of leaving something or someone perminately scares me a little bit.

Cassidy Meow I lived in my old home for just about 70% of my life. We moved out when I was about 10 and I honestly didn't care? Idk i didn't have many friends. But it was a huge house that was in the middle of nowhere and it had a huge forest behind it and I loved it. It was full of deer and animal shit but I loved it. I miss the smell of the summer nights when I could see the stars clearly. It was amazing and I would love to live there again but I love living in the city more than nowhere.

The emotions you get are mostly based around what your childhood was like. I had a shit childhood. I was getting bullied all the time and stuff like that so when I moved I was actually happy because that house and that town were filled with unhappy memories. To be honest my only good memories there were the birth of my sister, every time I was getting a good grade (I loved getting good grades) and the times me and my family were visiting monuments and stuff outside my town. The reason I was (a bit) sad when I moved was because I didn't just move to another town, I moved to another country so me and my family had to adapt to a diffrent lifestyle, diffrent culture, diffrent people and a diffrent language.

i went through this last year. lived in the same house for twelve years, since i was three. it was all i knew and then i moved across the country leaving behind all these memories and friends, a city i loved and a house i literally grew up in and it was the most painful thing i've ever had to do.

Cassidy Meow its like throwing away everything you've known and all that you've become familiar with

yea even if you don't live there anymore so it's no longer your primary physical support the memories emotions just smash you


I am so proud of you. It was time. You need to stop depending on those memories for happiness. I love you all and I wish you the best of luck for the future.


You're so incredibly strong! I really want to give you a virtual proud hug! :)


WHy am I crying this isn't even my house?? I went and listened to "When" after this as well and it just made me love the song even more (if that's possible). I'm glad you're processing and moving on. Nostalgia can be amazing but it can also be dangerous. Love you Dodie 💕


I really admire you for supporting your family dodie! <3 It's what I am aspiring to do and honestly, its the only thing getting me through my phd program! Proud of you for moving forward! <3


I love these kinds of videos. I feel like we really get to know you through them <3 You are very brave for this video and it was a joy to watch <3 It will all be alright in the end <3


Hedy is so smart and mature, you must be so proud of her ❤


This must have been really hard, but you got through it! Your family are awesome :)


I love how emotional you are. It makes me feel better about all the times I cry I'm a week 😂


I'm so proud that you actually uploaded today even though all this stuff happened to you today. So proud dodie, u da bomb.


This sounds strange, but I loved this video. It made me remember leaving behind my first home. So much of my childhood was wrapped up in one place, and watching this rekindled something very genuine inside of me. I'm not embarrassed to say that I cried. You are a wonderful human, and I hope that in time you and your family find healing and peace in moving forward. 💕


i know how difficult stuff like this is and i'd just like to thank you for actually making a video for us today even when you've been going through such a hard time. love you xx


I feel you, Dodie. I just moved from my childhood home this past summer. I didn't realize how much I love it until I was gone.


Dodie : Deep in nostalgia and tears about saying goodbye
Dodies mum: "There`s your childhood..... in the skip"
I LOVE THIS WOMEN ;P


well done for getting this vedif up,  I thought you wouldn't, and I'm proud of you❤


I can't even express how proud I am of you! You're so sweet and brave and I am so proud of how far you've progressed !


next week I'm moving out of the house I've lived in since birth (I'm 18 now) and I'm feeling reeeeeeally shit about it. I remembered this video and came back to watch it and feel a little sense of comfort, or at least that I'm not alone in this situation <3


I actually teared up when you threw your memory box in the fire. I'm exactly like you and hold on to the past far too much so I related to that pain :( I hope you feel better Dodie :))💜


I cried during this whole video, because I went through a really tough time when I moved from the place where I thought I was the happiest ever. New beginnings are good, stay strong I know is hard but it's worth it 💕💕


we love you dodie, were all here for you <3


One thing i've learnt to remember from moving around a bit during my childhood, and having to say goodbye to my first house which held so many memories, is knowing that I'll always be making new amazing memories wherever I go and whomever I'm with. I stopped by my childhood home the other week and saw two little girls playing in the yard there, making memories of their own, and damn it made me so so happy.

And something else to keep in mind that makes me feel better when I give things to charity (or Op-Shops we call them in Australia) is that someone somewhere out there will love that little something that I don't need anymore. If I can make someone else's day by letting go of a shirt or a necklace I don't need/wear/use anymore...I'm content with that.

It is sad, but at the end of the day, you might be making someone else's life so much more enjoyable, and in a way, that feeling might just be so much more fulfilling.


Dodie, you are honestly the most beautiful soul and I'm so proud of what a strong woman you are despite all the crap that life throws at you ❤


thank you for this. my parents are going to sell our home soon and everytime I think about it I start crying. no one else seems to feel the same way as I do and you're making me feel like I'm not alone


alright whimsical Hedy is back with great perspective and thoughtful thoughts


Your mom is the coolest! She even plays Pokemon.😀 I love you so much, and I cried for you. Just focus on how great your life has become. 😘


I totally understand the whole "home base" thing. My family want's to move right when I go off to college but then I feel like I won't have anything familiar to come back to and it is so scary. I've lived here for 8 years and it still feels like we JUST moved in and I haven't made enough memories here


Parting with (some pieces of) your past is something I feel like I could never do. I'm an absolute memory hoarder and I don't do to great with big changes, so I honestly think you're so brave for doing that.

Take care you all, the future's a bright one.


I have a 103 degree fever and dodie you are helping me through it!  thank you for allowing me to binge watch your lovely vids as I try to ignore the pain (^U^)


I never realized how pretty Dodie's eyes are.


Dodie omg I'm crying watching this. I am the exact same way when it comes to memories. I feel you so much.


I freaking love Hedy, she's such a sweethear


I cry literally every time dodie cries because she's my role model. I love you dodie, don't suppress your feelings. We love you xxx


I remember when you first left and your 'little room' song and you've made me a little emotional about your own home, seeing how you've grown up and moved out up to now.<br>I am such a nostalgic person and I 100% relate to how you feel; I have so many boxes of school books and tiny pieces of paper and blummin everything from my past that i am so afraid to chuck out and let go of x

Oh God. It would absolutely tear me apart to burn all of my old stuff. I'm such a memory hoarder. I have so many notebooks from my 3-8 grade stuff. (it's mostly like old art and journals). Even old notes from my old friends who I don't talk to anymore.<br>I just could never see myself throwing it away because it's such a big part of me.

All the love and support to you, Dodie.  <3 <3 <3 <3


I'm going through a similar situation with my own life right now- every now and then I come back to this video and just let myself feel. This video visually expresses a few of the emotions I'm feeling, and it makes me feel a little more sane to realize I'm not the only one who's been through this. So thank you, Dodie, for helping me feel a little less crazy, and a little more happy.


Your mom is so savage and supportive at the same time, I love it.


hey dodie, we all have memories. I know what you going through. I love your videos and you. you keep doing what your doing and everything will stay the same. greetings from the u.s. (aka, the states)


im sorry doddle. we all know how sentimental you are

samantha esther yes, yet we love our oddle


I am an incredibly sentimental person so I can only imagine how hard this must have been for you! I started balling my eyes out when you put the box on the fire, you are so strong Dodie and I admire you so much for being able to do this. Sending you cuddles, it must have been so difficult xx


Dodie, I'm so proud of you. I would never be able to do something like this. Even though there were a few tears here and there, you did it. You will get through it, but you've already been through the hardest part.


I cried Dods, probably because I remember watching you from the beginning in that house, and I can tell how much the memories mean to you. Love you, and goodbye house :) xx


Im so jealous of the relationship you have with your mom and sister. I could never talk to my family about my feelings that openly


ahhh this takes me back to old Doddleoddle vlogs and ved you dont know how much i love this <3

Just gonna say I LOVE STITCH SO MUCH. So I appreciate you reminding me of him. That movie makes my heart happy.

I think one might feel nostalgic about their own situation at the time of watching the videos initially as opposed to the subject matter of the videos themselves

Lani Ocampo ikr, it makes me feel super nostalgic


im so glad you made this video. i know its very hard. im currently doing the same - going through old meaningful stuff and throwing it away. thank you dodie:)


i can't even imagine how hard it must be to go threw this, i also horde my memories and keep a lot of random crap that have sentimental value to me so i can relate in that aspect and i hope you feel better soon. very proud you got this vedic up in time :D <3


You are so beyond strong for doing this I am so proud you are amazing I just want you to know I love you💞💞


I don't know if there's a video that relates so much to how I feel about my childhood home. And going through things I've hoarded over the years and forcing myself to not carry that weight around. Thanks for being so real ❤


I have a similar box with a lot of memories in it, so when you put it on the pile I just started sobbing bc I would never be able to do that and I could just feel the pain and anxiety if I ever had to get rid of that stuff<br>I'm proud of you ❤

oh Dodie :( it makes me so sad seeing you so upset like this. I know this is hard for you but it will get better soon. we love you x BE STRONG DODIE!


This made me really sad but proud at how much you've grown <b>throws strawberry sweets and sachets of wispa hot chocolate</b>

This made me really sad but proud at how much you've grown *throws strawberry sweets and sachets of wispa hot chocolate*


I need more videos with older Hedy!! I love her so much oml!


Almost made me cry, I hope you're feeling good!


Wow what a moving video! And so well shot and edited. I hope everything gets better soon ❤


I'm glad you got your mam and Hedy a place to stay!<br>That's so lovely dodie, take on all the sponsorship you like and make the content you want your viewers to believe in. Your emotions are always raw, and everyone knows it. Sending love and light to you, xx

So bloody proud of you Dodie. So gosh darn proud. ♥


I know how it feels to say goodbye to a place with memories that mean so much.


hey dodie, I went through this exact same thing when I was 19. I'd lived in my house for 12 years, and so many things had happened and I felt like I'd be really lost but that feeling of home just swapped to our new place. It's the people inside, and not the four walls which make a home. and when I come back to my mum after being away it still feels like home, so hopefully it will be the same for you :)


Dear Dodie, everything is going to be tickettyboo :)


Thank you for sharing this with us, Dodie


Oh the feels :c

I've been getting help the past couple of weeks with clearing out the clutter at my place, but even then very little of it is mine, and it's mostly just family stuff that got left here as everyone moved away. I don't know if I could bring myself to throw away all my old toys and models. Well done to you <3


I am sooo proud of you doddie! You've spoken and sung about how attached to the past you are and this was a big step for you that had to happen xx


Aww I love mummydoddle she's sweet and hilarious


Omg I'm sooo sentimental too and keep everything, I literally wouldn't be able to do this, it gives me anxiety just thinking about losing everything. You're so brave <3


I'm proud of you! i love your mum she acted just how i'd need it to be ! WELL DONE STAY STRONG.


Thank you for sharing something so personal with us, Dodie


Your mum has really good advice, i'd love to see a video with her in it


I'm such a nostalgic person by nature. I always felt like I was the only one.  It's reassuring to know I'm not alone


I am really proud of you. This must've been just so shitty for you. I think you're very brave


God I'm honestly going to ball my eyes out when I leave my house for the final time. Home is not necessarily where your base memories are, it's where you return to time after time to feel comfort and security. Where you feel your truest self and have watched yourself develop whether that being other months or years. That is what home is to me


Wow this is really intense, you're so strong that you could even do it ❤


Your family is so precious Dodie, no wonder how you're so loving and kind


That scene when you your box of memories in the fire hurt me so much, so i can't even imagine what it was like for you. I am a very sentimental and nostalgic person when it comes to memories and belongings. I understand (to an extent) what you feel like when you talk about your feelings on this. But one lesson I guess I'll have to learn as I get older is that we can't hold onto everything. Thank you for sharing this with us. Love you Dodie <3


I love that I can extreme relate to ur love of the past well done I know how hard it is


as an anxious person, I really appreciate this. There's times where I"m emotional and dramatic even if I know it isn't logical of me. It kind of makes me feel crazy or like I don't have enough self control so when I see someone acting similarly, it helps normalize the whole scenario. Thanks for sharing dodie <3


You should do a cover of "In My Life" by the Beatles.  It helped me through similar situations.

Bacchus Leto ahh one of my favourite beatles' tune

Wow, yeah, that song really does pertain to this situation

I saw "In My Life" and I thought of the version from Les Mis. Lol


I'm proud of you for doing this. That looks so hard! My family has a cabin that we go to in the summer. I can't imagine having to say goodbye to that place. I know my example is different but it's very much a part of me growing and it's where I can recharge both in reality and when I need to take a trip mentally, it's where I think of. Props to you for going through this and sharing it with us.


I get what you mean, Dodie. Having a certain place that your mind regards as a fixed point in time can be a very comforting mental tether to reality; something you can physically go back to when you just need something to be sure of. It can leave you feeling so lost when it's yanked out from under you. Here's to the future <3


When we moved from the last home my family shared before my parents divorced I cried like this. But I wasn't allowed to share my feelings because my mum was still angry and thought it was silly because we moved so much before that. It's great you get to talk about it with family. This made me tear up a little too. <3


I'm moving in a few days and I can completely relate to having to throw away all the happy memories from high school. I broke when I saw you put that box in the flames, but I needed to see that so I could muster up the courage to do it too. Thank you. <3


I cried with you. You are so strong Dodie. And your mom is cute af😂❤


everyone in the Clark family seems so wise I love it


Dodie's relationship with her sister is exactly the same one I have with my little sister and it's wonderful.


I understand how all that feels and I'm really proud of you and glad you're family is so supportive of your process with this! When I left my home, because of so many family issues, tons of my stuff was just abandoned and I never had the chance to say goodbye to it or decide what to keep.  I'm glad you have time to address these things and there is no shame in crying over it. <3


It always so happens that dodie, you and I, we always... almost always go thru the same things around the same time. and it helps. it really does. it tells me I can be a lil bit more vulnerable as I let on. thanks dodie. means the world. love u


I remember having to move away from my childhood home and it was the hardest thing ever. I cried for days knowing I would never be able to go back. I remember I wrote a little note to the people who was going to live their next in my old closet.

That's really sweet. I'll do that if we ever sell our family home


we might be moving sometime in the future, and this would absolutely kill me. just thinking about it is so hard. i'm so proud dodie 💕


I'm currently going through this. My family is leaving the home we've lived in and personalized for ten years. It's a very weird experience, having to come to terms with losing such an integral part of your past.


This made me cry so much. It brought back all the memories of when I moved, it's been years and I still don't feel comfortable at my new house and that's terrifying to me as it means I might never be comfortable any where else


Throughout this entire video I just wanna give you a hug 😂


Love you too dodie, and yes it's totally alright to be upset over it, as silly as it may seem. :) sending you the best of love and wishes. <3


You say a home is a place that makes you feel comfortable, loved and calm but I believe that it is you family that do all of those things so home is wherever your family is, don't be afraid dodie it will all work out 😘😘💛

It's hard leaving a place that you've always known. I remember when my dad sold his house, the house i grew up in till I was seven. It was still my home until I was 12, even though I didn't live there 80% of the time. It was scary, for me, because even though the memories I had from that house were sad and angry and scared ones, it was the one solid thing that stayed the same. A lot of bad things happened in that house when I lived there, but it was still my home.

For me, letting go of the house started happening when I started to let go of the bad memories that had happened there. Through therapy that I've had over the past 3 years (just over a year of it was inpatient so it may take longer for people who have therapy in the community I guess), I've processed a lot of stuff. And the house seemed less important, because I'd let go of what was tying me to it. I suppose it might be harder for happy memories, but i think the same thing applies. You don't have to forget, you just have to realise that now that's in the past. You can remember it still, but you can separate yourself from it; it doesn't define you.

I hope you feel better soon, Dodie, but remember to take time to think, and to grieve, because that house; that home, was important. And you're saying goodbye. But now, it's a new start, a clean slate, and you can do whatever you want.

Remember: It will all be okay. Breathe. You're real. You're alive. And you are beautiful.

your mom seems like a great person to be with when you need to talk about something


I may have cried just a lil bit... it breaks my heart to see you go through this dodie... you'll be stronger once you get through it though ❤  think of it as a step to let yourself stop living in the past


For me it was when my Grandparents sold their house. There were so many memories and I didn't think the house would ever not be a part of our story. It was hard.


This video actually made me quite emotional. I really connect to the things you are going through, needing to say goodbye. You are brave for dealing with it, I don't need to deal with it until the summer and I most likely wont until then.


I am moving house after 14 years of living in this house, and I have serious issues with change. I relate so much to this. This will be the hardest thing ever for me


I'm honestly crying my eyes out while watching this... my moms house right now is the place I go to in the weekend where I feel comfortable and calm I just wanna hug u bc I know what u feel


I just recently moved and I know how you feel. Just wanted to put that out there! 😘


My family is moving out of a house that feels like where I came into my own and it's gonna be hard for me to say goodbye to it too. I relate


Fucking well done, Dodie. Honestly, good on you. That's all I can say.


I've moved quite a bit in my life and lost a lot along the way, so I know how it is to hold onto the little things


Just when I thought Dodie couldn't get any more perfect, she likes Rhett and Link too. DODIE YOURE THE ULTIMATE HUMAN BEING


This reminds me of last year when my parents moved out of my childhood home because we had a neighbour who was so so so horrid (and we had horrid neighbours the 20 previous years; but none a horrid as this one) and I'm still really mad at him for the horrible things he did while we lived there, but also for forcing us out of the home I grew up in.


Sending all the love and all the good vibes to you and your family Xxx


thank you little room, you've served me well.

Solar NO I LITERALLY JUST STOPPED CRYING AND NOW I'M THINKING OF THAT SONG AND I STARTED CRYING AGAIN


God I'd never be able to do that, I always got so mad when people got rid of my stuff without my knowing. Props to you dodie


Oh Dodie! I know how it feels. Few years ago we sold our home too, the one where I grow up, where I had best moments in my entire life... But we need to move on. To think about it with smile. Life is long. And we should do anything, to make it good. Take care and let yourself cry all the tears you have, it really helps :)))


good little family you got there. good mum. how lovely. i wish my family was like that. we're all just such different thinkers it's hard to have a good conversation about our brains and stuff. but it works for y'all and that's good. makes me happy.


I actually started to tear up a little while watching this because it reminded me of when I went through something similar. I know what you're feeling :/


that was so brave when you said "this is the hardest thing" and then just went and did it. You are strong and lovely dodes


something about you just radiates emotion, and it's heart-breakingly wonderful. i teared up and i don't even know this damn house!! hope you're okay xxx


I've never lived in the same house for more than two years so I feel like I wouldn't ever experience this lol


you have such a supportive mum and sister, i wish i had that kind of open and honest relationship with my family xxx


My parents are divorcing, and I'm having to go through a similar thing with my home, except I'm 16, so I haven't had a chance to say goodbye properly yet. I don't hate my house, and it's just being really hard for me to process it. I'm glad you can say goodbye and be happy to leave, and I'm so glad everything's working out and getting better for you dodie!!


After my parents separated last summer, we're selling my childhood home. Really needed to see this video again. Makes it a little less scary and lonely


I felt like this and I've walked in what seems like an empty shell of a home. It takes a while, but it's a really nice breather once it's over. You'll feel better Dodes


watching this made me think of the condo i lived in as a toddler to about 5. watching the original toy story and just being with my mom on rainy days were amazing. i know i'll have to throw out all my old childhood stuff i've actually kept one day. i can't keep everything, it makes me cry a lot, but i can't hoard everything i love.


i could never do this. good on you for facing your fears and doing what needs to be done. stay strong. ❤


Hey letting things is really hard but making new memories is really easy and making new memories mean you replaced the old ones. You did it and you'll be okay.


I totally know how you feel Dodie. The first time I moved houses, from the place I'd lived my whole life to somewhere completely new with new members of my family (step-mother and brother) it felt like a loss, but since moving out of that house and into my own place it feels so much like this amazing gift of freedom. <br>I'm glad I said goodbye to that place so long ago, but I also look forward to my home that I have now, and the homes I'm going to create for myself in the future.

I feel like dodie's mum in the car is all of her audience rn


Getting rid of my old notes and pictures and stuff was one of the most theraputic and refreshing things I have done. Cleaning the clutter is like cleaning my life. There's new space for new memories. I feel you about letting go of the past. It's not easy. But you did it, and I'm proud of you for it Dodie ❤❤


This made me both really sad and happy at the same time. I might be moving out of the house that I've lived in my whole life soon. I know it's just a house but it's hard not to get emotional. It would feel weird not to be able to come back here and just exist in the same way I used to.


I've only ever lived in one house. If/when my parents move I will be heartbroken. I'll feel like I'm leaving behind the memories I made and the pets I loved who lived and died in that house. It's the tangible thing I associate with my childhood. I definitely understand how hard this must have been for you Dodie. Stay strong. xx


dodie this is so cute<br>p.s i love that its all lilac colour graded <3 (pls see this dodie)

Your mum seems so sweet! I'm sorry you had to deal with so much recently, but you honestly seemed to take it much beeter than I could've. Thank you for being so amazing and sharing this with us<3
Also, I'm so excited that you uploaded on my birthday :)
Happy VEDIF


Watching this reminded me of the day I asked my dad if we could go round to his parents' old house (they're both deceased by this point in time) to see it again. He said this would be a good time to let me know that my cousin rewired the electricity in the place to bring it up to code to rent it out, and it burned down to the ground. My grandfather built that house for my grandmother when they married, and now it's just gone.

I'm glad you got to see your place one last time. <3


Thank you little room you've served me well💙


I love you and your family. Hugs to everyone. I wish you all the best.


I am so actually proud of you for uploading dodie


A few months ago I lost my family home so I completely understand how you feel. The worst thing about it in my opinion is the thought that other people are now living in my home and it breaks my heart. Sorry you had to go through this. My thoughts are 100% with you 💕


Ah this makes me all emotional 😭 my home got all messed up & I've had to move around literally 18 times in the past few years and I'm like WHERE IS MY BASE PLEASE 😭😭😭


dodie i love you and i'm proud of you for going through this, especially getting rid of all your paper things from the past but.... do y'all not recycle?! 😢


I can only imagine what this feels like...<br>And I think it's amazing how you've captured these moments! How was cutting om this emotional vedif?

And I think it's amazing how you've captured these moments! How was cutting om this emotional vedif?


If anyone else out there is having a hard time of letting go, my aunt found scanning/ taking pictures of everything she was hoarding really helped. That way you aren't carrying around that pile of notebooks or letters, but you can still keep the memories. Yeah scanning takes time, but not more time than continually moving them. Love you dodie! <3


Dodie, the first time I heard "When" I felt like someone else finally understood being intensely nostalgic. Loads of people are nostalgic, but I've always been way too attached to memories, way too living in the past. I cry when I think about my favorite trees on my Mom's property being cut down one day by people who don't care about them. I'm 22 years old and she's thinking about moving someplace else when my little sister graduates, to get away from the memories of our family before things split up. I cannot imagine it. Everyone who knows me knows I care way to much about this house and the plot of land it's on. I'm happy that your family will be somewhere nicer, but it's got to be so hard. Cry your heart out. I hope it will heal soon.


I think Dodie is so cute and I love her personality, plus her name is similar to mind but mine starts with a J :,) ahah <3 <br>I cried when my parents told me we we're moving house, turns out I've made better memories in the new house.

Doddie your mother is savage, I love it :D


I don't know why I keep coming back to this video... it's just so homey


Hey Dodie, I just wanted to say I am dealing with the exact same situation at the moment... It is really hard to leave your home indeed :( we'll get through this together !! Xx


I moved away from my childhood home a few years back and it was ROUGH!!! I totally get what your feeling, I'm very sentimental as well and I couldn't stop crying for the longest time. It'll get easier to accept, I promise 💕


This video makes me feel so many things. I feel so deeply what you're feeling, while I can't relate 100%, I've always been stupidly sentimental. Back when you wrote that song about your room and saying goodbye to it, I remember bawling so hard bc I know I'd probably do the exact same thing in between bouts of crying, and same goes for this, I can feel what you're going through as if I'm going through it myself.<br>Thank you for this video, I love you, and here's to a clean slate and new chapter of your future.

Thank you for this video, I love you, and here's to a clean slate and new chapter of your future.


Thank you for posting this, and showing that you have all these feelings. It actually helps me a little bit to know I'm not the only one struggling with this. My childhood-home is where I have all these happy memories of both my childhood and of my dad who has passed away. The new place doesn't have memories of him, and it hurts me. It may be a good thing for my whole family, but right now I'm not ready to let go...


Ahh! You winning that Rhett and Link contest is how I started watching you vids! I've seen all of them since and I'm still a fan ^_^


I've moved nine times in 19 (I'm rounding up oops) years. It's never any easier to say goodbye to a home and goodbye to the memories made inside of it. However, the people you've made those memories with don't change.

House change, walls and roofs and doors can all be different, but what occurs inside the combination of those things is what matters. Be sad that you're saying goodbye to an era of your life that was your life, but be sure to embrace the future in a big 'ole hug with the ones who surround you with love. <3

The future is probably Dodie Yellow, so you've got that goin for ya.


I may just be hungover, but this video made me fully tear up. I can't imagine my family home not being my family home anymore so I completely understand the emotions


it's a good thing to let go, dodie. Hang in there ❤


I'm going through the same process right now, and I cannot tell you much this helped...


I have almost exactly the same problem with not letting go memories and since I'll be moving out of my childhood home this year, it's starting to hit that sometime this year I won't be turning into the little circle of houses that I called home and that really hit hard


Your Mum is me when I have someone else in the car for Pokemon Go


Dodie, I feel like your videos are always such perfect timing. First with your Bisexual video and now this. I've lived in the US for all of my adolescent life, but in August I'll be moving back to Wales. I have  to say goodbye to a lot of things and people and I just want to say thank you for being you. I'm only a 20 year old Welsh stranger in America, but I'm proud of you. You're an inspiration to me.


This made me cry harder than almost any sad movie I've ever seen. The idea of loosing the home I've lived in my entire life is one of my worst nightmares. Love to you <3


this brings back memories of moving and it breaks my heart honestly :^P I moved out of an ex boyfriends place and it was really sad. I hated living there but it was really sad knowing I was never going to see where such nice memories were made again. It was my first place without my parents and I cried for like a month straight. My life is way better now but I find myself looking back and getting sad that it's changed so much since I left. I don't know why that is.


When you constantly move to different countries in your life you will realise how much of a hoarder we are.


I can't express to you how much I relate to this. I am so nostalgic and I keep everything I couldn't image burning the diaries I have. My whole childhood we moved around a lot so I don't have a specific house that holds all my memories but I do remember we my family moved out of my last house and into the one we are in now all my friends came over to help me sort through all of my stuff(our stuff if we're being honest) and it was such an emotional day finding pieces of my life everywhere and deciding what to keep. You are very brave Dodie and I can't put into words how much I admire you for this and I'm happy to have someone I relate to so much.


I like what your mum said at the beginning when you said you wanted to cry, that your body knows what it's doing. I've never heard that before but that's a really great way to let someone know that what they're feeling is okay. So thanks Dodie's mum for that really nice yet simple statement about why it's okay to express emotions and cry.


I just moved a few months ago from the house I had lived I for my whole life, I cried watching this video, I also hold on the things with meaning and I am very sentimental, I have a memory box and many diaries to help


I am extremely sentimental. I can't imagine throwing away my old stuff when I move out. I totally understand how you're feeling 😫


It's weird that this video came out because I have phases where I think of my old home, and I'm in that phase again. I already made my peace with what happened there, and I'm definitely better off where I am now but I can't help but think about it.
Sometimes I look it up on Realtor websites and go through the pictures. It's so empty and full of natural sunlight, when I moved it was the complete opposite. My wall paper is still in what used to be my bedroom, a lining of pink paper with flowers.
I look around my surroundings now and I always remember how bleak my last few months were over there, over 10 years ago.


I don’t think I would EVER be able to do this so well done dodie x


Its nice to know im not the only one who holds on to everything, so thanks dodes ❤


your mom is the best!  i really would like to meet her. im sure shes as amazing as you are <3


So I thought this would be just a chill video but when you threw the stuff on the fire i started balling. The thought of my box of photographs just going scares me so much. You are brave for doing this <3


2:30 OMG DODIE WOT R U DOING I FELT UR PAIN I'M SORRY UR SO BRAVE

haha np, it was a weird thing PewDiePie was doing, where you had to change your pfp to this :P I think it's a sort of anime thing, can't say I'm very knowledgeable of it though :)

I love Dan and Phil my two beautiful fathers if you're asking about the girl doing the muscle thing, it's Mugi from the anime K-ON!

I love Dan and Phil my two beautiful fathers lol if I'm correct, it was about a video that Pewds uploaded to make people moderators and he jokingly said if you don't have that picture then you're not worthy enough

Sophie Stedman sorry this is irrelevant but what's your pfp from? I've seen so many people with the same one


I have so many vivid memories of my childhood house: how it looked like, how my grandparents lived with us, how I spent hours watching cartoons on the tv, how my best friend and neithbour would come home and we would play for hours and hours. But nowadays it is a nursing home, so I rather not even think about how it might look. However, I go there in my mind sometimes, it will forever be there for me to "visit". Your house will forever be in your memory too, Dodie. Hope this makes you feel a little less sad.


As someone who has lived in 10 different homes (in just 14 years lol) I can't relate a lot... but I want to tell you (even if it's late) that I admire you, because if change has been hard for me, I can't imagine how hard it was for you...


Awwwww Dodie I love you. If you could reply my life would just be perfect.  😂😂


♡ You're going to be so much stronger after this


i can't deal with how cute and supportive your mum is oh lord my heart hurts


I actually started crying watching this because I remembered that I will have to do this one day


"there's a pokestop" i respect these priorities


I was crying along with you as I am also very sentimental towards objects and things due to the memories they are tied to. I have tons of boxes of stuff back home that I know one day I will need to throw out if I don't want to be a hoarder when I'm an old lady but it's still really hard. My thoughts are with you, Dodie <3


DODIE I LOVE YPU THANKS FOR BEING ALIVE AND STUFF


I had a similar experience to this, it was in the summer where my parents finally decided it's time to remake my room- which was a bright, ugly purple, and I didn't like the entire composure of it and just bleh- and I was so excited when we got paint and ordered furniture but the first moment I was alone in my empty room, colour scraped out of the walls- I bowled my eyes out. I had this room ever since I was little, I shared it with my sister and I had laughed and cried so many times.


this video is partly relatable to me bc i am so attached to possessions because they ground me when i dissociate (or i pretend they do so I have a reason to keep them) but also.. people in the comments are talking about childhood homes and I can't even imagine how difficult it must be to leave that behind because ive moved around once every 3 years if you average out my life lmao


I have all my old school notebooks and my boos because I love them so much I can't imagine you being this strong to do this... <3


I understand you, but from a different way (?) I'm a hoarder with memories, the good ones and the ones I want to keep. Mainly with pictures, videos, tickets from movies and random events I go to. I have some pictures and movie and event tickets taped on the side of my shelf, and plan to fill it all up, along with some parts of my wall. I constantly get notifications saying my storage is almost full, and I'm sure it's from all the random photos and videos of my friends and family. Also in my snapchat memories, I save pretty much everything. I take most of my videos and pictures on snapchat so I save them there and it doesn't use up my storage. I have no where else to put the things in my camera roll, and I'm afraid I'm going to use up all my storage, or worse, lose every photo and video I have.

I keep keepsakes papers everywhere too. Sometimes it gets really messy. <br>One thing that helped me keep all my nostalgia souvenir papers neat, was a journal. It gives me a place to keep everything and I have descriptions with them.

em :P I kind of understand what you mean I'm constantly trying to get pictures and videos so I remember the memories but then I just end up living through the phone because I'm too worried about trying to save the memories so I'm not actually living in the memory (it's kinda hard to explain)

+Parigi and +abadoodle those are great ideas omg thanks! I'll look into google photos. Thanks it means a lot :) especially since I'm going to a few concerts soon and I wanna record practically the whole thing XD

You can also get google photos!! Unlimited storage if you don't mind that it's not super top quality (basically if it's just jpgs/phone photos they'll be the same quality anyway) and if you download the app it'll auto-update and save everything. Only problem is that first bit where you gotta upload everything you've already got bc it takes ages :)

I recommend that if you're scared of losing them because your storage is full, transfer them onto a memory stick so that you can make more memories. You could even have several copies of the photos and videos on different memory sticks so that if you lose one, you still have them

jess ophelia ikr same. I feel like if I delete something I'll lose the memory, especially since I think I have a bad memory on some things. I always feel like I need to record all the fun and funny things that happen in a moment when I'm out doing something.


some people say "home is where the heart is"  it wasn't until my late twenties that, to me, that will always mean "home is where my mom is."

you're an incredible human being, dodie.  keep truckin', bby.  You got this.


I can feel how sad this is for you and I'm crying :'(


I just finished filming a video about home(s), I feel you dodie :)


Having moved home more times than I've had birthdays I can't really understand what you are going through but I hope things are a bit better now.


This reminds me of the other day when i went to see my old babysitters house from when i was younger and it looked so different from how i remembered if and i just started sobbing


this video made me realize in a few years i'm going to have to leave the house i grew up in. unless something drastic happens, i'll have lived here for a total of 18 years. all my life. i love it so much. worst part is when i move out so are my parents as they'll be moving as well (we already own the house they'll live in)
not only that but this video made me motivated to go through "the box." the box is a shoebox full of memories of my grandparents who are gone now, but i loved them. so many memories of them.
thank you, dodie.


It broke MY heart when you had to burn all that stuff gosh I wish you the best dodie and all the happiness


Oh my goodness Dodie, you have no idea how much I relate to this video. Even though my parents split up many years ago, we're selling the house just now. It feels like a huge loss even though i technically live in a whole other city bc of school. And i also relate to that thing you said about the before and the after, that house, still even though everything went to shit a few years ago. It still represented in my mind that happy future i always imagined for myself and my family. Together. Like somehow the person i wished i would've been was still living on in that house, a lot happier than my current self. But i hope it'll get easier slowly. I know it's hard, but we'll make it through ❤❤


I've had a lot of emotions stored up for awhile. I started following since like last summer and I've been able to connect with you so much. This video hit me hard, but I started crying like a baby when you talked about the Rhett and Link picture. Those two were the first people I started watching on YouTube in 2009 and I remember that song by them. I felt overwhelmed by happy emotions of Rhett and Link, how much my life is changing, and I felt somehow more connected to you. Like we go way back when I didn't even know we went way back. Sending all the love from Ohio!


honestly this must have been so hard for you. I dislike change so much and even the smallest changes seem to affect me massively so a massive heads up to you and sending lots of love your way xx


my god did this video make me cry, sending you so much love man <3


I'm really proud of you :) I could NOT be able to do that at 2:30 that was very very strong and brave of you, wow.


Was that her brother talking at the end of the video? Also I really appreciate that Dodie shares these things with us, not many youtubers are comfortable sharing the difficult, and while its okay to just show the happy things, I appreciatte it when people share things that are sad for them. Love yall!


I went through the same thing! My family wanted to move but I didn't, I felt like the home where I grew up would be a constant thing in my life, and then it wasn't..


I could totally understand your sadness. I had to move house about 3 to 4 years ago. Until now I still find it hard to stop calling it home . Luckily my parents didnt sell it so I still come back home whenever I feel lonely and need someone to back me up. Remember my words. no matter what, our home is always our haven. at least it is for me.


We moved out of my childhood home 5 years ago and it was so weridly hard I remember crying my eyes out .. I totally understand why you're crying!!


I went through a similar situation a few years back. When my grandfather died, my grandmother though it would be too hard to keep up the house she lived in by herself. That plus it was like a hundred years old, the foundations were slowly deteriorating. We emptied the house and my grandfather's barn (which was mostly his workshop, they didn't have any animals) and they were both subsequently destroyed.

My grandmother has a minihome now, on the same spot as before, and it's fine. But I'll never get to visit the old house again. I still cry about that house whenever I think too hard about it.

And that's just my grandmother's house! I couldn't even imagine if my parents sold our house. We went really close to moving a few years back, and I categorically REFUSED to visit any other houses as wishful thinking. It worked out for us, luckily. I totally know how you feel, Dodie. It'll get better, I promise ❤


dodie i love you so much and I wish you the best. you are strong


I couldn't get this video out of my head. It just hit me really hard because I'm going to college soon and I've collected so much stuff in the last couple years from boyfriends and random movie tickets and just things that I wanted to hold onto and I burned all my stuff in a fire because I just wanted to let go. Thank you for making this video Dodie.


I've only ever had one family house in my life and even though I'm 23 and haven't 'lived' in the family house for like 5 years I don't think I could cope letting go of it. Yes it's just a house but I was so happy there and it's been the rock that I can always go back to to escape the rest of my life. Stay strong and cry it all out :)


I'm so proud of you. I own a whole ton of stuff that I don't need but I can't build up the courage to get rid of it. This video may actually help me in getting my act together and throwing out a whole bunch of things which I keep purely for sentimental value.


I'm also a very nostalgic person and I moved out of my family home a year ago and I kept so much crap that I don't or never will need for memories sake. This video made me cry so much because I could relate to everything :') I think I need to go through all my stuff and get rid of it because I think I've realised now that it's not healthy :)


3:50 YES Dodie.  I resonated sooooooo much with that statement!  My family moved out of the place I'd called home for the past 10 years of my life back in October, and I was absolutely devastated and terrified.  I'd just moved away to college, and already being away from home is hard enough, and then I realized the one place I felt I would ALWAYS have to go back to wasn't mine to go back to anymore.  I felt like someone had just pulled a rug out from under me.  I felt homeless.  I still feel a little homeless.  I recorded a ton of video of that house before we sold it to try and keep it with me forever, even though I knew it would never compare to the real thing.  I remember crying through it all.  I was so lost and upset.  The hardest part was leaving my bedroom behind, because it held bookshelves my dad had built for me 10 years ago, but we couldn't take them with us.  Horrible feeling to leave those shelves for someone else to use.  Change isn't always easy.  I'm also very sentimental and I love nostalgia, so I can relate to what you're going through.  But, things will get better and easier ❤ Sorry for the rant!


I had a weird experience when it came to childhood homes. I've lived in four houses in my 19 years - one I barely remember, one I always thought was going to be home, one that was a way station between homes, and the one I'm in now. When I was  10, my family and I moved counties to further down south because my dad's job had relocated and he was having to travel 5 hours everyday just to get there and back. we never saw him because he'd leave so early and come back so late, so my rents thought it would be best if we just move closer to the new building. leaving that place was one of the hardest things I've ever done, but at the same time, I was only 10. I idealise that place in my head, but in reality I know it would have ended up being too small for us anyways. I've now lived in the house I'm in for longer than I had back then. moving is weird. I've always been so confounded by people who live in the same house their whole lives. I feel like I have two childhoods because of when I moved, it's weird. there's the childhood I had from 3-10, then there's the childhood I had from 10-now. theyre so distinct in my head because of how drastically different they are.

I don't really have a point here. I just don't get the chance to think about this as much. I do know one thing, I highly doubt I'd be the person I am today if I hadn't moved. I can't even imagine going through my teen years back there anymore. so I guess that's something.


looking forward to more collabs with hedy 😊


i'm so proud of you for processing it :)


I remember when my parents sold my childhood home I was so sad leaving because it wasn't my house anymore (they had done a lot of cosmetic stuff so it would sell) and even though I wasn't that happy in it & I wasn't really attached to people in the area it was still sad & I cried like a little baby when I left the driveway for the last time. Such a strange feeling being sad leaving a place that had so much stress attached to it.


aw dodie, i remember commenting on that video maybe a year ago that you could actually only make ads and we'd still watch them and I now stand by that saying so much. your family is lovely and you all deserve the best :) remember home is the people not the place


I'm in tears. I've know exactly how you feel. My family left our home of 10 years 3 years ago and it was hard. I luckily got to keep a lot of my things and sentimental stuff but I did lose some things on the way and it was so hard. I can't imagine having to throw out my old school journals and birthday cards from friends. The worst part is you know there's no point in having it besides nostalgia and memories, but it's so hard to let go because it almost feels like you're getting rid of those memories, they won't be as vidid as they are when you read from your old stuff. Oh my goodness I wish you well and hope you feel better.


Happy vedif, Dodie xxx <br>lots of love <3


I really wish I could talk to my family like this


This reminds me of when my family had to sell my grandparents house after they died. 😭 It's hard to imagine someone else living there.


that video was so good dodie! very nicely made, very artistic. And Aldo very emotional, but can you imagine, that somebody next will be making new beautiful memories in this place? And maybe will be in tears one day when will have to say goodbye to this house!


this video hit me pretty hard and i guess im just really thankful you made it


This is really helpful to me. I moved around a lot but I have so much stuff I accumulated and it's hard to let go. Seeing you do it makes me feel like maybe I can do it too because it's so much stuff and can be frustrating because I don't have room for anything new.

How do you feel in this moment about all this? Good, bad, between?


oh my god , I understand this feeling so much RN. I'm literally moving tomorrow from a one bed flat I had on my own for the last 2 years in Cardiff... to a room in London. I've spent the last week sorting through so much stuff, taking it to charity shops or throwing it away. I'm an incredibly sentimental person and I cling on to things even for the smallest memory. Ive had to ask myself "do I need this...or do I just want it" a lot lately.


I express myself best through lyrics and music and this is a song that has really helped me through a lot and it's written by someone I admire deeply but also feel like is my friend even if I've never met her so I figured I'd add on to it:

I know you see the world in a blurry haze
But just like before, you will be saved
And I get that they won't get it
That you'll save yourself and you won't regret it

You'll make new memories to replace the old
And soon enough, it'll be easier letting go
And I get that that's not what you wanted
And it's ok if you can just barely bear it

Little things, all the stereotypes
They're gonna help you get through this one night
And there will be a day when you can say you're okay and mean it

I promise you it'll all make sense again
I promise you it'll all make sense again
I promise you it'll all make sense again
I promise you it'll all make sense again


Recently my parents moved out of our family house to an 11 hour drive away. It was a really big thing to deal with at first, not because of the physical home but because our family gathering "base camp" was changing. It helped me to remember that home is not a place but a feeling. Home is where those we love are.


This makes me so sad, I'm a really emotional person as well and I literally keep eVERYTHING just for the memories, I'm only 16 at the time but I really feel like if I throw them away I just won't be able to remember the happy times I had when those letters, drawings, etc. were done and it scares me, change scares me a lot and I know I'll have to throw them away at some point, I can't keep collecting every single thing and as time goes by it will be harder and harder to let them go but I'm not ready, not yet.<br>Also, I lived at an apartment for the first 15 years of my life but idk, it stopped feeling like home since I was like 12 which kinda sucks because I haven't felt like I've had a home for the past 4 years of my life and stuff but also, I guess that if my dad who still lives in that apartment I grew up in ever moves out, at least it won't be as hurtful, at this point I think I'll cry more when I leave my amazing highschool than when I leave any current house

I have a very happy life right now and also collect everything but know I'm scared I have to much stuff and will have to do this someday. it looks so freaking hard and just thinking about what you're going through makes me sad. but I'm so happy and proud of you that you're officially starting the next chapter in your life!😊


When dodie goes and puts that box on the fire with her memories my heart breaks because I could not do that


Just remember, all things happen for a reason. Change is good, although some people don't think it is. Some things have to change so other things can happen. Soon, your new house will feel like home and if it doesn't, that's okay. Remember to talk to someone about how you feel. If you feel comfortable with the house, you'll settle easy. I know you'll get through this, Dodie. I love you lots x


Dodie, memories live on regardless of whether or not you hold on to material belongings. I really recommend watching the Netflix documetnary The Minimalists, it honestly changed my views on so many aspects of life!


this is so interesting because i've never had a home home before. my family and i moved around so much (probably over 10 times), so i always envied people who had somewhere they grew up in.


After watching this I went straight to google maps to see my childhood house... So many memories!


that made me cry! I recently moved out, me and my family from my childhood home and I as the exact same way, but my family always reminded me that my home will always be wherever they are (not to mention our house was OLD and falling apart around us so it was a good idea haha)


I totally know what you mean by suppressing everything. Watching this reminded me of the night my mom and I left our family home. That was months back and I still haven't fully let myself feel it. <br>It's really lovely that your mom and Hedy have a new place that is close to her school. Moving sucks, and saying goodbye to the place where you grew up sucks, but you are a very strong person. I'm genuinely happy for you that everything worked out okay. <3<3

"there's your childhood, in the skip" ASTRID  SNDBJSBSHSB


Aww your mum is so sweet! & I'm the same, letting go of the past is hard. But when you let go it takes so much weight off your shoulders. It's gets better though, once you learn to let go of the past its not as heart shattering. But seriously don't sweat the little things & i would have cried too especially letting go of so many great memories! ily dodie x


I am going through the same thing right now so I totally understand. It feels like I'm leaving behind an old friend.


As soon as I saw you crying I knew I was gonna cry at this video. And I did. Hard. I can't even begin to imagine how difficult it is to do this and I am dreading doing it in the future.


I don't think I would be able to do that to all my old stuff, your amazing 0-0


I related to this in so many ways. I recently moved to university, but whilst doing this my mum also moved house, which meant everything I knew changed. So thank you dodie for uploading and understanding


Awww dodie seeing you cry breaks my heart</3


I understand this feeling, I never got to say goodbye to my childhood bedroom. My bedroom was an addition to our house and summer we had to tear it down because of water damage. I helped tear down the roof and knock out the walls and it was extremely depressing. I'm in university and when I come home for break it gets kind of sad.


Ahhh memories of all the videos I've watched of you in the past (who else watched the ice bucket challenge of dodie here!!)


Aww Dodie. It's good to hear that you're trying to let go of the past and move forward. I know how sentimental you are as a person and that's not a bad thing! It's good to let your emotions out. <33 Letting go of your childhood home can be tough, especially if it holds good memories for you. I moved to a new house a few months ago and i don't miss my childhood home one bit! I had so many good memories with it, but i don't feel sad leaving it behind. I'm sure it's gonna get demolished someday because the conditions of the house are pretty bad.. long story. Now if it ever got destroyed i'd probably be sad but oh well. Life is life and it's healthy to move on. OH, also there's <i>no way</i> in hell am i letting go of my memory box. It's too precious, so you've got real courage doing so.

This hit pretty close to home. Also, I've been deathly ill the past 2 days and you posting is what has kept me goin ❤


I know I'm a day late :( but I wanted to tell you how therapeutic this was for me. I am leaving my town of all of my life in a few months and we're starting to pack up my house. It's upsetting because I don't feel like I have a home anymore. To see someone going through this as well was comforting to say the least.


i love you Dodie. <br>You are such a precious human

i love you Dodie.
You are such a precious human


this video has a tint of pink in it and it's aesthetic and soft

Saff x it's you aren't u the trans one lol congrats

Saff x it might be metaphorical for rose tinted glasses and the way she perceived he childhood

i wish i could see everything in this filter it's so soft and purple and aHH

It reminds of a song she covered "La Vie En Rose", literally "life in pink".

Saff x  It's quite fitting/ironic if you think of the phrase "rose tinted glasses"

Saff x ive always wanted to know what the filter was AHHH ITS IN ALL OF HER VIDOES THAT SOFT PURPLE PINKISH FILTER I REALLY WANNA NOW WHAT IT IS

Saff x I think you could use the dawn filter in the editor on YouTube :)


My family may be moving house soon. And like you, I keep all of my memories (photos, letters etc). But my room in the new house is very small and I can't keep it all. I think letting go will be a big challenge for me. And I'm proud of you for doing this, I know how much this must have hurt.


I literally started crying silently when dodie cried in the car. Thx dodie


Found you via Tessa & you are definitely one of my new faves. Adored the video where you two were talking about mental health. Love your personality, your music & also your eyes are BEAUTY-FULL, girl!  So, YAY,  you have a new YouTube frand now. hello! ^___^


This video is art. I know this is so hard but the way you captured this moment was so genius and beautiful and I really think this is really relatable. A short film masterpiece.


i like how they're talking about something v important to dodie and then her mum just says 'can you get some pokeballs for me' lmaoo


your mum seems so cool, she reminds me of my mum. I can imagine how you feel, though. I love my home and my parents have been talking about selling it when I go to uni as it's just kind of big and would feel empty without me and my two brothers. So I get it. They would be so much more at peace somewhere else. BUT I JUST REALLY DON'T WANT MY HOME TO BECOME SOMEONE ELSE'S. Well done for getting through today, Dodie. <3


i actually cried while watching this because it reminded me when my nan had to move out from her beautiful cottage. i had the best childhood there. the cottage was so pretty, there was sheep in the field next to it, an outstanding forest with horses in the field next to a old fashioned mansion. when she had to leave (they wanted to knock her cottage into the one which backed onto it and make it into a house, and because she rented she has no choice). but that was my second home. it's so sad and all but these things happen ❤
