I can't believe how much I love somebody from the internet. I've never met you ever but I feel like you're one of my closest friends. I am so in love with you, your music, and your videos. I know you might never see this but you are such an important person in my life and I'm so happy that I found you.

same. and for some reason I only feel this way about Dodie. She's just able to connect with her fans in the most down to earth way, and I always feel like we're on the same level, not like she's some unattainable celebrity. I love you Dodie <3

kiararocktheworld I relate to this so much sometimesoon I fell that Dodie is my only friend

Omg yes I feel the sane I feel even more so with this youtuber Melanie Murphy if you like dodie you'll probably like her, I have just honestly fallen in love with her

You seriously took the worlds out of my mouth

kiararocktheworld why is this exactly how i feel

yessssssss also why do I relate so much to dodie all the time <br>it just feels like even although she's a bit younger than me I'm growing with her and a lot of times we go through similar phases a lot and it's just so nice to see her vlogs because I know there will be something in there that will make me feel better yaaaa

it just feels like even although she's a bit younger than me I'm growing with her and a lot of times we go through similar phases a lot and it's just so nice to see her vlogs because I know there will be something in there that will make me feel better yaaaa

kiararocktheworld true true true so much truth

kiararocktheworld it's like you read my mind

@Schnuffel Stern you said it so nicely/perfectly, I couldn't have said it any better. Thank you

Schnuffel Stern (edit i tagged the wrong comment) awe that was so sweet and I feel the same way

kiararocktheworld I feel you... it's like being connected to Dodie...just BECAUSE of her 'dramatic'/honest self. she lets us take part in her feelings and life and that's where she makes us (or at least me) feeling to be taken care of. I feel like she picks up my soul and looks at it as if it was some sparkling marble...her excitement about life and feelings are captivating and makes me feel save and understood in that huge internetworld... thank you Dodie for being you and uniting your audience to a loved crowd... tonight I want to sing your songs in my sleep...

kiararocktheworld Same! she's just so idk captivating and sweet, like she could be anyone's friend, I love that about Dodie so much


I don't think you are dramatic, you are just Dodie, the best person in the world and someone who makes the most of your feelings, allowing them to be felt. More people should be like you <3 P.S. that gossip site is crap lol

YOU ARE SUCH A POSITIVE PERSON!! LOVE YOU

BananaJamana what's the gossip website anyway?

BananaJamana You and Dodie are my Favorite 💕 So so sweet and loving 💕 You are both so Inspiring💕


It feels like I haven't heard your voice in such a long time. I have. I've been following your content constantly for over two years, I hear your voice every day. But around the half way point of this video you just...slipped into something different, that felt so familiar to me, and it really felt like I was listening to an old friend. I don't know. Anyway I loved this vid dodes, luv u <3

Emily Mayer okay but like i felt the same way?? It made me nostalgic for her younger self. Though I love her to pieces now


I absolutely love her clappy thing that she does for her intro it's cute


dodie is such a role model. what a good person.


at school we have a club called "colour and a chat" where we just colour and talk about stuff it's awesome

Emma Popcorn

Wut?? That sounds amazing!

And omg Emma popcorn lol I didn't even realise that was. You hiii

omg i hope they'll have that in my new school. if not ill have to bribe the principal lmao

We need that in our COUNTY, in our world, OUR EVERYTHING..... I just I'd love that

I want that in my school. It sounds amazing!

Emma Popcorn omg that sounds amazing!! I'd love that so much x

Emma Popcorn omg can i go to ur school even tho im american

why here in poland the only club in our school is basketball after lessons gosh it seems so cool

We have that too and I accidentally brought up all my personal issues and a girl I know started crying because she was going through the same thing, and i love her with a passion cause she's so cute and sweet

there's a teacher that runs it and we can colour whatever we want!! i bring my own game of thrones colouring book but the teacher usually brings some cute animal ones and sometimes harry potter ones if we're lucky. she looks up conversation starters and we talk about them :)

Can you tell us a little more about the club? like, is there a "president"? What do they color? Stuff like that. I legit wanna start this at my school!

Emma Popcorn I was looking for the Emma comment haha !

Emma Popcorn omg that's so cool can i join your school

Emma Popcorn wow that club sounds amazing

Why there's not something like that in my school? D: so awesome!

Emma Popcorn I'm gonna be going to a school next year where you can form your own club if they don't already have one like it so I am totally gonna create a club like that oh my gosh

Emma Popcorn I'm so gonna start this at my school omg

Emma Popcorn what i wouldn't do for a club like this!!! my. I would just Love that

wow! we need that at our school. that seems so calming.

Emma Popcorn shit I'd join that sounds awesome


I just started watching Dodie and she's so cute omg

I know, she is lovely! I've been subscribed for like three years now (WHAAAAAT) and her videos always just make my day a bit brighter :)

dramatic trash me tooo i know, she is sweet!


Dodie- "I love coloring and being dramatic"<br>Me- "I love drawing and being extra"

Dodie- "I love coloring and being dramatic"
Me- "I love drawing and being extra"


Something about your voice is so soothing and calming... I love it! <3


today i was binge watching your videos & realized how relaxing your voice is, in the best way. to the point that i slowly fell asleep on my bed and missed my lecture. not to be confused with boring content!! 😂😊❤


I love how calm you are in addressing the gossip all while painting. Like a big "fuck you gossip website. I am me and I am okay with it. Leave me to my arts and crafts. Bitch bye. 🖕🏼 😂💕


This was another neat edit. The additions of the text is like a sprinkle of freckles across a cheeky-grinned face of a friend. Wow that got poetic. Enyhoo. Nice one for VEDIF.


I relate so much to dodie when she talks about nostalgia. I feel like I’m always living in the past.


I was in class at 3:30, and my mom called and said my grandma passed away. It's about 4 now and I am in bed, no longer crying because dodie took me out of reality for a second. Thank you dodie. You don't know how much your videos mean to some of us.

M Kidd things won't be awful forever, carry on and stay strong xx

M Kidd you will be fine. I know it maybe doesn't seem possible now but you will. It's just life. It sucks right now but It will get better. Have a cup of tea/coffee and play some music that is important to you. I'm sending you love <3

I hope you're feeling a little better today :) hugs

Stay strong, she's in a better place now Xxx😘😘😇

M Kidd my gran also passed away yesterday and i really hope you're okay. I relate a lot rn xxx

M Kidd I'm so sorry for your loss, stay strong. I hope you feel better soon, love.

M Kidd I'm so sorry for your loss. I know what you're going through, and it will get better. lots of love and hugs from Scotland x

M Kidd i really hope you feel better soon, i know how much that hurts, my condolences <3

I'm so sorry <3 I know that feeling

I love you. It'll be okay <3

Hope Dodie's VEDIF can continue to take you out of reality through the next month. We're here. So sorry for your loss. <3

M Kidd I'm so sorry for yours loss. I'll keep you in my prayers <3

M Kidd I'm so sorry for your loss. Go watch some more Youtube

I know exactly how you feel. It will be one year in a week that my grandma passed. I kept her texts and I catch myself asking like she is alive sometimes.

I'm so sorry, I lost my grandma in 2014 so I know how you feel. Sending love from Wales 💗💗

M Kidd omg I'm so sorry. I remember being in the car thinking I'm going to see y grandma and they told me she died.

I'm sorry for your loss, I remember when my great grandma passed away how surreal it felt (and not in a good way) but it will get better with time, just stay healthy and look ahead :)

sending my support for you and your family ❤

M Kidd im sorry for your loss. things will get better :)

stay strong <3 listen to some dodie songs, read a good book, make yourself some tea, eat some comfort food, anything that makes you feel a little happier.

M Kidd I'm so sorry ❤❤❤ That's so hard and I don't know what it feels like to feel that much pain. Cry as much as you need, please don't bottle it up. Take a few days off school if you need to(unless you really need emotional support from all your friends at school.) And don't forget about self care because it's so important. Sleep, showers/baths, food, and water. Don't forget these. ❤❤

Thank you all so much, I wasn't expecting this kind of response ❤ dodie obviously draws in lovely people as well

My thoughts are with you and your family❤

M Kidd sending my love , wherever you are x

M Kidd So sorry for your loss. Stay strong, love

Yay I love to see Dodie this happy it warms my heart❤❤


Honestly you should do this more often. Like just chat and talk about whatever you wanna talk about it while painting/clouring or whatever. It's really relaxing and I love listening to you talk


I love her, I really do, whenever I'm having problems with anxiety, or depression, I watch her videos and I instantly calm down. Thank you dodie.


hey! I just wanted to say that you are currently one of my faves to watch and a lot of what you say resonates with me and today I went to my first session with a therapist which was a huge step!!! Thank you for how honest and lovely you are


These videos fill me up with so much joy. Damn I freaking love you Dodie. You make me happy.


This was such a self-positive video and it was so sweet! Love you Dodie, so excited about VEDIF :D


This was such a calming video tbh. So low key and simple yet entertaining


I love it when Dodie's like this, makes my day 😊


this is one of my favourite videos of dodie because she's so genuinely happy and herself. it brings me joy to see her enjoying life :)


I love how you explained feeling things and drama as a positive thing you can make art out of. Making art out of everything is an awesome way to live I think.


I really liked this video, it's so relaxing just watching you colour and talk about things. I would love for you to make more of these ❤


this might sound weird but you are really calming to watch ,  thank u for making this <3


Such a simple video and it made me so happy! There was something super empovering about it. Thank you dodie!❤


Thank you for being you and for being dramatic. I think you're great, Dodie, and I appreciate the content you share with us.


I just love putting on dodie vids while i do homework, it's so calming and i love her and it actually helps the time move faster so yay love a good dodie binge 😄🌼


when i'm drawing I always put on a lil relaxing video and just sitting here drawing, whilst watching dodie do the same and talking about things, it's so nice. it's like friends hanging out, at least that's how it felt :)


I love these kinds of videos. They're just kind of calming to me. Hearing stories told by others about like, their childhood homes, their current lives, things like that just... I dunno. they're nice. So thank you, Dodie. Thank you very much.


I already love Vedif <3 you're doing great dodie and I love painting too


Your positivity in this video is really inspiring, I'm finding it kinda difficult to say good things about myself recently but I'm trying and you really help. Love you dodie <3


I'm so freaking excited for the rest of this month. I've haven't been on Dodies channel when she's done one of these so I'm ready


I relate so much on how hard it is to give up things you're attached to ! Really like these videos btw, you're great <3


i'm honestly loving these videos bc they're posted right away when i come home from school!! i take off my shoes and fall onto my bed and watch dodie. life made.


Dodie!<br>I wanted to thank you for being such a lovely person. If I ever have a bad day I can watch one of these videos or listen to your music and I feel so much better instantly. So, thank you. It's nice to watch a YouTuber that actually seems like a real person, rather than a robot. So, please keep being you. I doubt you'll see this but I hope you do. Have a lovely day!

Dodie!

You're easily my favourite YouTuber. I love how you can  be yourself in front of the camera. No need to be someone else just to please people. Being you is the best thing! And we love you the way you are <3


you really have made my evening just you talking to the camera makes it feel like youre here and just talking with me thank you dodie you really are great


are you gonna make a re-make of the song you've wrote when you moved out but for your house? I'd love that!

Can you be the nicest person ever and link me too??

erin shes already made the video lol its just on unlisted


This video is an accurate representation of myself, and now I feel as if I can put my emotions into words. Thanks Doctor dodie 😊x


thanks so much dodie i haven't watched this channel for a year and watching took me back when i wasn't depressed. very happy thanks so much


I have a big candy bar and I'm binging the vedif videos bc I finally have time. Thank you so much for making these Dodie 💚


i relate to you so much. This video reminds me of that one quote, "sadness makes good art". In truth, all strong emotions make good art. And - getting a little dramatic here myself - what is life but a form of art? Better live it the best, most intense way that you can. Love you Dodie! <3


hey dodie I just thought it would make you happy to know that in my German a level we look at music and specifically our favourite artists so long story short I'm writing essays about you in german and my German teacher is now really into your songs!

Beth Hughes That's awesome! hope you get a good grade haha :)


Dodie, I love the way you're dramatic, because I enjoy your art so much and you truly give the best life lessons


There's something about Dodie that I find so calming and relaxing. There's something so homely about her videos.


Just you being happy is making me feel so much better. I'm glad you're seeing the little positive things in life! I know it's weird if I tell you "thanks for being happy!" so I'll just say: Enjoy your day, Dodie.


I love how this is such a calm video where Dodie is just coloring and talking and the soft lights in the back and how happy she is


How is "her snapchat is just her" a criticism? What else do people follow that snapchat for?

Hamish Woodland shes talkin about guru gossip isn't she?

Hamish Woodland if it was less of her I'd be sad I like dodie's Snapchat


You're absolutely perfect and wonderful the way you are, Dodie💚


Lovely desk you got there, congrats! Also I think that coming up with a life lesson for every situation is such a great personality trait... I mean everyone is always learning from their mistakes and the more you learn the better! Don't listen to the trolls 🙃


Hey Dodie! I absolutely am in love with the lights in your backdrop -  do you mind telling me where they are from? Thank you! x


these videos are so lovely and therapeutic <3


Your videos brighten my day so much and on days like today which haven't been too great mentally-wise they make such a difference. Thank you so so much for that <3


Your deep thinking helps me so much, thank you😘 also you seem happy at the moment which makes me happy ❤


F them, Dodie. We love you as you are, and I especially ADORE the fact that you learn from everything - I'm trying to emulate that myself, really. You're fab 💜


Dodie I love how your always so real, and how the people in the comments section are always so real. It's such a supportive little community. I just want to say thank you for making videos, even though I don't know you in real life you feel like such a good friend to me and seeing your videos always brings a smile to my face even when I'm depressed. Thank you so much for everything :)


i didnt know i could emotionally connect with someone so much.. even when it feels like im bumping into stars just aimlessly floating around space. it pains me that i might never meet you, but i'm so so thankful for your videos :)


I love these kind of casual little vids <3


I love hanging out with you Dodie. I love your chatty videos. I feel so close to you, and you mean so much to me. Like, I feel like I know you personally. I'm so grateful for everything you've done for me, Dodie. I love you so much


I love the relationship you have built with your audience and I cherish it deeply. You're videos inspire me so so much and I literally cannot believe how much I love a person who doesn't know I exist. But just know that you are a massive influence on my life and I love what you do.


I absolutely love your videos. Keep up everything you're doing because it's perfect. You're an inspiration to me and I'm never gonna stop watching your videos. ❤


Love your videos and you so much. You're a really smart person, and you're able to take responsibility and learn from what you do. Not to mention you're an amazing artist.  Keep doing what you do!


these kinds of videos make me all warm and happy, because it just feels like you're hanging with a friend and havin a good ol' chat. i can't wait for the rest of vedif eeeee :)


I lived in the same house with my parents for 23 years in a little village. Every christmas, every birthday, every easter i ever had was in that house.
Yes I came and went, to uni, to house-sharing etc etc but it was always there. A bolt hole if i needed it and to be reminded that I am loved. An instant reminder of all the good times, all the memories, all the growing up.

Last year they sold it and moved 6 hours away.
I was devastated.

I have no reason to ever visit that village again, all my friends have moved, all my family have moved, I've moved. And do you know what........I'm okay with that...now.

Honestly it was so so hard to come to terms with, my life has been moulded by that house, it's made me who I am, the garden, the neighbours, the redecoration, it's wrapped up in every fibre of my being, but now i realise that that chapter is over. It's time for me to find myself again in a new house. make it my own, bring up a family.

i'll never get over leaving that house, i think about it often, but it's just a chapter in my life. it's time to write a new one.

love you Dodie <3


I've been binge watching your vlogs even tho I've followed you for a long time now but you really are just therapy for me. The way you talk and how you give tips reminds me of who I want to be and it's okay to be sad. I love you so much ahhh


Hi Dodie!! I hope you're having a wonderful day. I just wanted to say I love you and keep doing what you love. You are a beautiful human with a beautiful soul. ❤❤


I'm so happy that you're feeling better it just makes me smile!


I really like this. It reinforces that all emotional levels are validated and it’s not up to anyone to judge someone else’s emotional experience.


Hi Dodie I noticed there's a typewriter on your new desk <br>I was just wondering where you got it from and how much it was

i remember watching paint when it first came out. i subscribed right after watching it and im so glad i did. youve improved and grown so much since then. im proud of you for getting so far in only a few years ❤❤


The fact that you're colouring with Crayola crayons makes me so happy


I personally love your long snapchats! I like to watch them befire I go to bed so I can end with a happy Dodie :)


I relate to you so much. I sat down with my past sketchbooks and tears worked their way into my eyes. One of them hit me hard. It was one was one that reminded me of the day, the exact day, I got over my depression. I felt so free and happy. That is why I'm fine with keeping some little things, because that's what keeps you going.


There's nothing wrong with being a bit dramatic. We all deal with things in different ways. For some we bottle it up inside whereas others spill at every opportunity and there's nothing wrong with that. Whose to say that one method of dealing with things is superior to another. The important thing is it helps us cope and if someone dares to call it annoying then I say screw them. I'd much rather have a dramatic Dodie that is able to cope then a modest, timid Dodie really struggling. ❤


I don't know why, but there is something just so calming about watching your videos Doddie. I love it!


thank you dodie. thanks for music, thanks for vedif. it makes my month every day. lots of love. xx


The desk looks fab!! And omg I am sentimental af and like I actually don't know how you're coping with your family home being sold bc I will be a meSS when that happens and it dawned on me that like I've moved out so as soon as my bro does too iTS A POSSIBILITY AND NOPE IDK WHAT ID DO so I totally get you and tbh I wish I was a bit more dramatic like you bc overthinking and being dramatic over stuff really does help art!!! And what is wrong with that!!???!? Absolutely nothing!!! :D enjoy ur colouring and happiness xoxoxo


i could procrastinate for hours on end watching your videos. i love you dodie


awh dodie looks so happy here, im so glad you're trying to love the present cause you totally deserve it!


Oh man, I totally empathize with this. My parents moved to a different state last spring (I'm in college in my home state), and it's still so weird that our old house I grew up in now belongs to a new family. Even though I love our new house and love the city where they moved, I still get nostalgic for the old one!


May I just say how you seem to be so much happier Dodie, and thats absolutely amazing. It makes me smile to see that you are doing well and keeping your head while dealing with different things in life. You are such an amazing person and i just wanna say thank you for your awesome videos and I hope this good time stays with you<br>:)

from the side it looks like your mug says "i'm bi" and i was about to be like "lmao same"

sheedah from the 1975 i love your username

sheedah from the 1975 I want a mug that just says "I'm pan"


I am ALSO DRAMATIC and artistic and proud! Love your work Dodie. Thanks for keeping it real


I aspire to love something as much as you love to paint that book haha!! Glad seeing you happy 💙


I love this video, because it's so chatty and it feels like dodie is actually talking to me


I LOVE IT. You are a beautiful person. Dodie. Thank you <3


when i smell these certain types of bushes i remember the camping i used to go to every year from birth until age 12 because my grandparents had a little house there.


im so happy for you!!! its great that you seem to be feeling content with yourself, thats so important!! :D


Dodie I feel you! I AM ALWAYS SO DRAMATIC. Yea it is annoying but also I think from there the creativity comes from😉


i can relate to this so much. living in the present is really tough when the past is just so closely held onto, but it's at the very least nice to know that this is a way to be and being dramatic about things is okay


I think always learning through life experiences is great.Keep on being you because I like you the way you are,dramatic videos and all.


As someone who has gone through the whole divorce/family home being sold thing I can definitely tell you that it's interesting. It's not until everything is cleared out that you realise your home is tied to all the things that fill the house (pictures, fabrics, smells etc.) rather than the foundation and walls. I'd definitely encourage you to spend a bit of time within the bare walls and to take it all in, I found it quite cathartic at the time.<br>Sending love and support your way - ever need to chat you know how to find me <3

I feel almost exactly the same way. I hold on to so many things, and even if I don't enjoy things at the time, later on I'll romanticise it so much and wish I could go back. I am very sentimental as well, I think. <br>Also, what arty stuff do you own?

I love dramatic Dodie! Keep being yourself and keep being awesome!


I'm so happy that you are happy, Dodie! :D


As soon as she said take a break I was like "let's run away for the summer let's go upstate"


I live for how content you are with your life. Sure you have your struggles, but you don't let them stop you and I admire that with a great passion <3


This video makes me feel so at ease after my first day at school thanks Dodes


Your videos always make me happy ... if it's been a bit of a shit lonely day at uni just watch a bit of dodie 😊


i feel like watching your videos could help me,, in a sense. i love watching your videos and your voice makes me so happy and joyful. usually at night ive had some controversy with a "friend" and need a break, and that's when i go to your channels. thank you 💓


When she said dan we all know who we thought of

BitterYetSweet actually I thought of her friend.

wow
I'm
I'm not a Phan anymore?
I
wow

It's only in the last couple of months I've stopped making that automatic name connection XD

Last Impression  haha...<b>clears throat</b> noo...

Last Impression  haha...*clears throat* noo...

+Jacob Brinson I think you mean "Daniel Howell"

BitterYetSweet <b>*laughs awkwardly*</b> Heh. I totally didn't think of danisnotonfire

BitterYetSweet **laughs awkwardly** Heh. I totally didn't think of danisnotonfire

I knew who she was talking about...but I thought of Dan as in NerdCubed lmao

BitterYetSweet Our Pham is just everywhere😂

Well I knew who I thought of and it was Daniel J Layton, actor. Not everyone thinks like you dear.

I mean I am dan and phil trash but I knew she was talking about her friend lol

BitterYetSweet so sad it's not, but glad I want the only one

BitterYetSweet oh good it wasn't just me


My mum was considering moving (I live with my mum so I'd be moving too) and just the thought of it made me burst into tears, thank god we've stayed but I hope you're doing ok coming to terms with it <3


Loved this video! I am also a sensitive, deep person and am sick of being told I am too sensitive etc. I like who I am.


You should do a live stream where you just colour/ paint and chat!! That would be so cool


I feel like if anyone else commented this then everybody would be sooo mean to them in the comments.

Evan Edinger her impression of you was spot on

+Evan Edinger I guess you could say a bit too /draw/matic


dodie, anyone who watches your videos whilst being decent human beings, love that you think deeply and discuss your thoughts and life lessons with us. It's probably a big reason as to why I watch your stuff tbh. You create lovely content.


oh Dodie, you are perfect just the way you are ❤


i have so missed the soft, settle down with me, heart to heart chat vibes that come from dodie's daily videos. lots of youtubers stop making small content to focus on big creative projects, but these little in between moments are what made me love dodie's videos


i love just listening to you talk its so calming to me i usually do my homework while i watch you cause you help alot CX love ya ^-^


I'm so used to calling her dodie that calling her Dorothy just sounds weird lol

Sometimes I forget her name is Dorothy and I'm like ahh

Tasha R I did not know that! What an awesome name.

her full name is dorothy miranda clark ^-^


I actually see you as one of my friends at this point, because this is the kinda stuff I talk about with my friend, Love ya you're amazing dodie ^^


Haven't finished but your Snapchats are wonderful and I really love them! You are great dodie


Your snapchats give me life, Dodie. I love what you do.


you most likely won't see this but I want you to know that I'm really glad that you're going to make a video everyday.  I don't know why, but you always seem to calm my anxiety.  your voice and I guess what I can only describe as softness always soothes me and coaxes me out of my anxiety thanks dodie


I've been in a bad place mentally/emotionally for awhile and it's gotten worse this week but your videos are so relaxing to me and I appreciate you so much. I hope you know how much you are loved, thank you for making videos <3


That talk about your childhood house hit me hard.

Getting ready to go to college this fall, big things are starting soon...💜💜💜


I need more of these types of videos they relax me so much and I just love to hear you speak your mind and ur just so great 😁


"Why does dodie have to take everything and make it into a big life lesson moment" because you, dodie, are a person who reflects on life and things and you see how it impacted you and you want to impose your found wisdom on others ❤ those life lesson moments are what keeps you human (and life is too short to not be thinking and learning). you are a lovely person dodie, and I love your mug!!


God I love you dodie and your dramatic moments 💙


Dodie's typewriter is just adorable and amazing, and my aesthetic ❤


i love you so much like youre so relatable tbh and you really care about what youre doing on this weird website called youtube. thanks dodie for making me happy :3 <3


It feels like I haven't heard your voice in such a long time. I have. I've been following your content constantly for over two years, I hear your voice every day. But around the half way point of this video you just...slipped into something different, that felt so familiar to me, and it really felt like I was listening to an old friend. I don't know. Anyway I loved this vid dodes, luv u <3


Those 'relaxing' colouring books stress me out because they're designed to be relaxing and I get stressed all the way through them which makes me more stressed because it makes me think I'm doing it wrong which makes me eVeN more stressed and ugh


I also have depersonization...a Youtuber having this, and sharing your experience really helps me to see that I am not completely alone. Thank you!


Dodie i love you so muchhhh  I'm just like you, and you make me feel ok about who i am. Although, alot of the time my head is so jumbled that I'm not even able to understand, explain , or turn any of it into art


Personally i love that youre "dramatic" (i didnt even notice tbh) and indulge in your expression and creativity and ARE so honest about your emotions. Emotions are brutal. Emotions are dramatic. All sorts, every single one of them. Especially for us young people, even though we all experience the world differently. And i love that. I think it's wonderful that we experience things on such a large scale and so intensely, too. It both scares and saddens me that once puberty ends (in our 20s somewhere) that our feelings won't be so "saturated" and BIG. I can see the good in that. We need to mature. We need healthier perspectives. I guess its for the best. It scares me too, to think about growing up and leaving behind my childhood and teenagehood. Its all i've known, and therefore its one of the largest parts of my identity. If i don't have that, who am I now/who will i be? I know I invest a lot in who i perceive myself to be (i want to pay £150 for a dna service for example ! I spend hours learning about cognitive function theory (mbti) and enneagram so u see what i mean). Its just so daunting and overwhelming. And you know, the best thing to always come out of big emotions like longing and sadness and fear, is Art. So well done, my love. Make all the more Art you need to make! Im privileged to witness you flourish xxxx


dodie i paused the 1975 to watch this are you happy


Going through some old youtube at nearly 10pm and autoplay brought me to this video. Thank you Dodie, this was what I needed right now ^.^ Keep on being dramatic, you're what the world needs right now, without drama all we have is tragedy


Please never stop being dramatic bc it's so refreshing to see you have a deep and honest chat about stuff on camera. You're fab and I hope you know that 👍🏼💃


AHHH!!! I JUST CAME OUT TO MY FRIENDS! And I'm so happy! They all are so supportive! I really recommend coming out to your friends as soon as possible, if they don't support you then you don't need those motha fuuckkkers in your life! #LoveIsLove!🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈


doddlevloggle hi I am a huge fan of your work! My friend showed me would you be so king and that was all I listen to . You are extremely inspirational and please I would kill to meet you in America!

I was like "I saw that brush before but I DON'T KNOW WHERE"

I have 2 tigers near me and I go there every time

Anna Ray Tiger is the best shop! Like a mini ikea


I love the desk, the chat, your water coloring skills, all of it. This is such a peaceful video for me, and anytime you want to do this in the future, I'm up for watching it!! Anyways, hope you're keeping peaceful and happy!


I love all of your VEDI___ (insert month here) videos. They are always so honest, and I love the little tangents you go on :) Maybe it's because you have less time to make them so you just have to go with whatever is on your mind at the moment


i love the fact that you make a big deal out of everything and learn things from everything. it shows that you think complexly and find something important in everything 💕💕 love you dodes


A certain smell will take me back to when I was young but I'm never able to identify where it's coming from make a candle out of it if I ever found it try to sell it never sell out of it if probably only sell one

LeahHollxx it'd be to my brother, 'cause we have the same nose, same clothes, home-grown, a stone's throw from creek we used to roam

LeahHollxx maybe to my brother, cause we have the same nose

Cause we have the same nose, same clothes, home grown, the stone's throw from a creek we used to roam

LeahHollxx honestly i thought of this too


I love this videos like seriously they calm me down so much but at the same time make me think of so many aspects of my life that ugh... I just freaking love Dodie


I love watching your snapchats.  Your Ikea adventure was the highlight of my day.


Leaving your family home is so difficult I cried so so much nice to have someone to empathise with xx


It's so comforting that you're embracing that you're dramatic. I am too and one of my friends actually YELLED at me because of it. I didn't realize how much it affected since it's been years but man it sucks to be "called out" on it. So thank yooouuu <3


1:51 am i the only one wishing life away never caught uP IN TE MMEMNT BUSTY BEGIGNG YHE PAST TO STAY

.. you made a lot of spelling mistakes but this is a dodie video so I’ll let you off


Hey dodie I doubt you will ever see this, but I really really love your videos and you matter a lot to me. Even this was a simple video it made me smile a lot. Thank you I love you mommm 🖤


If you got through that tour despite feeling crappy, then that probably means that your ability to cope is greater than you thought it was, and you can take inspiration and strength from that.


I feel the same Dodie, I am so dam sentimental I keep like lit everything, im getting a lot better but it is hard for me to let go of the past, especially things like bday cards. Also I saw some of your drawings/painting/colouring's such as the egg and it makes me wanna start arty stuff again :) You help me through knowing im not the only one who is sensitive about smaller things in life thanks x I love your videos and snapchat stories they cheer up my day xx


"can't she not have a dramatic moment without making a life lesson video out of it?"
Hell no! Dodie you're making me happy in my dark days now.
Please don't ever listen to those complainers. I like, adore, and secretly love you.
So don't you ever stop being yourself.


I don't think you're dramatic, I think you're dynamic! You're a complex human being who is very in touch with herself! And that's a great thing! Keep being you, Dodie.


Dodie you're the only YouTuber/celebrity type person that I can really relate to. I get that same "disconnected" kind of feeling you've talked about before and I thought it was just me. So thank you for making me feel all the more less alone in this confusing ass world, I can't thank you enough for that.


I'm genuinely so glad you're doing a vedif,, February makes me really anxious (not for any particular reason) but this gives me something to look forward to every day. Thank you :)


Dodie you are so amazing. I love your snapchat I don't know what those people are on about. Stay true to you, I'm proud ❤


Day 2 and I'm already so excited about watching your videos everyday for a month


I don't know why but watching you color is really relaxing :)


I can totally relate to being sentimental ... I found it so hard when we moved out of my old house! also I am so dramatic about everything too!


I remember when my grandparents house was being sold after they had passed away. It made me really sad because there were a lot of fun memories in that house. It was where I spent a lot of time with my cousins and the rest of the family. I think it finally got sold more recently, but it's been up for sale for several years, so. Yeah, there were lots of emotions.


+Charlotte Froberg I'm fabulous, as I always am after seeing a Dodie video :3

Federica B. hello! I just have to watch these video's the second I see them

I make comments cuz this is my commenting channel


I absolutely love that you make life lessons about everything in your life-- mostly because I greatly relate to much of what you talk about, and it's nice to hear what you have learned/what you have to say about these topics. I'm very glad I found your channel, and I wouldn't want you any other way than how you are, because you're amazing and real and someone who can genuinely make me feel like I'm not totally bonkers and alone in my thoughts and feelings.


Right after I left for college for the very first time, my family had to sell the house that I grew up in, so all of those feelings I have definitely had!<br>I want you to know that the new house will become home and it will one day feel comfortable. It may take a bit, and there will be times of sorrow, but it will come.

I had to say goodbye to my childhood home last year so I feel that, but yeah it is what it is. <br>Also you're so damn adorable, you're deserve to be happy

I got a colouring book but never thought to paint in it, I need to do that now! Also dodie ilysm never change 💕✨


Your snapchat was fucking amazing yesterday haha. OVEN MITTS!!! Also,
"Her snapchat is just of her"
umm wtf?! Just yesterday it was you and dan having bants in ikea so BOOSH.

iceteaaddict that's the reason snapchat exists lol. It's either that or food

Ella O'Kelly ik and its her snapchat? how can they complain that shes on it? 😂


I love these videos where she is doing something else and just letting her brain go wherever and it feels like we're on a sleepover hanging out


also a helpful tip about romanticizing the past is to always journal exactly how you are feeling so that when you look back on it you have an honest account of how you felt not just a version your head made up to make you feel all warm and fuzzy.  it's nice to indulge yourself by thinking of found memories from time to time but it would suck to repeat mistakes based on feelings that aren't real.


dodie i love you so much and we're moving out of the home i've lived in since i was 12 so i completely feel you on all that stuff xxxx


I have a sister but I want a little brother!

Andrea I practise French and play piano with mah mother! (Uh-huh)

Looks like I found the hamilton part of the comments section. I will never escape from this fandom, will I?


I absolutely adore Dodie, she's such an honest and pure person and I love that because it's so raw. She just doesn't care what other people think even if in her eyes she does. I just want to say how much I love her and want her to keep doing everything she is doing ❤


Dodie coloring makes me so happy. Like I get surprised by how much cuter you can get by the minute.


Hey dodie I am redoing my room to look all aesthetic and tumblr  so I was wondering where you got those amazing lights behind you. Love you lots, Joshua


I'm sick as frick and I kept crying bc I can't breath out of my nose and my throat is all clogged up. When I started watching your vids I stopped crying and now I'm okay bc of you. Love you Dodie!!


only day two and im ecstatic. i love dodies style of video because i feel like im just having a chat with her. bless.


Love the desk and chair! Loved listening to you in this video! :D <3


BTW Dodie, remembering only the good things in our past is a way our brain keeps us motivated and able to continue living.


I think you're doing great dodie...actually no you are doing great.
you're working on things, setting goals and that's the key.

I've never really had a family house, I moved around a lot.
I did move at 16 back north...that was tough.
Evan needs to hide those sites from you. anyways keep working on the goals, you're doing great.


you are so genuine:)) I just love watching your videos. I wish we could be real life friends!!


It makes me so excited when i see a new video from you eVERY DAY DODIE <3


How lovely to hear you being happy with you, so so important, be you and be happy with who you are xxx


I've seen some of these gossipy videos on YouTube and I find myself clicking on them and wondering why this is the content they decide to share with the world. From your perspective I can't imagine having that type of conflict for everyone to see. Keep your head up Doddie!


I can relate to you so much, I also am very sentimental and love remebering the past. I have a whole box of full diaries and I always want to write everything down or take pictures and stuff


I can't explain how much I relate to Dodie, it's kinda uncanny😂


i absolute love these videos,,,they calm me down & take my mind away from reality


Don't change for anyone Dodie; your dramatic nature just shows how in touch with your emotions you are, which is what ultimately makes your art so amazing!


I totally get you with the whole memories thing. I always look back and think "Wow I wish I could go back to that time when i was happy!" even when I probably wasn't in the best mental state then either. That's why "When" resonates with me so much: "Memories painted with much brighter ink" because that's truly what happens. I want to stop doing this but I can't. I'm so nostalgic. Help.


Loved this video Dodie, you are a really great person and I feel like I relate to you (I'm also very sentimental and artsy) also, I live in Harlow, which you probably know as it is right near Epping! I had to say goodbye to my nana's house last year when she went into a care home. She had lived there 65 years and I'd know it all my life. Yes they are just buildings, but damn it is still hard. Loving VEDIF xxx


I really like the way you are and the way you express yourself! ❤


Do you wish you could sit someone down and tell them “ thank you” for making everything so clear... without being creepy about it? This person who I don’t even know, I can relate to on so many levels (more than most people in my life). I just wish I could tell her in person how much this kind of content means to me. 💛


Dodie I really love you! Your words are so inspiring and not to sound tacky but it feels like you are like a sister figure...
Idk
You are awesome and I hope you know you are appreciated


honestly i think being really dramatic is incredible bc you're able to make art out of it. i wish i was a person who could be slightly more dramatic but honestly everything in my life is put down as dull and uninteresting


i really need more videos like these in my life ✨🌹


I loved this so much. It made me feel so happy


I love this a whole lot this video brings me so many smiles because she's just having the most innocent fun imaginable and is just super happy? I wish I could hug dods for a solid 8 munities.


It makes me so happy that you do love yourself, and that you can enjoy the moment, even though youre spaced out. it makes me so happy that you can accapt your flaws and that youre comfortable enough in yourself not to have to justify them. And it makes me so bloody happy that youre alive, and that you do youtube, and you make music because <b>you</b> make me so happy. And thats something i don't feel very often at all. When im feeling so horrible; so suicidal; when hurting myself seems like the only way to make my screaming thoughts go away, I know that i can come here, to your channel, to your music, and be safe. I haven't felt safe my whole life, until i found you. And you have continued making me happy for years. For that, I thank you. So much.

I'm a sentimental person too and my mum has just moved from my childhood home so I completely relate and know how weird and sad it is x


the dramatic bit really speaks to me because honestly, that's what life is whether we buy into it or not- a stream of constant learning. all the lovee


Dodie !! My mother's house is being sold too and it's making me really sad... I feel you. I love you. We'll get through this together !!


Ive been watching you for about a year now and i am so Proud and in awe of how much you have changed and evolved. i feel like i should know you, but if i met you i would eather fangirl or act like we've been freands for forever, me and my freand love you and we love how strong you are and can be. you taught me it was ok to be bi and its a thing not just a "fase" no matter how meny people tell you it is
much love
commenter❤💛💚💙💜


DodIE YES keep being you and forget those silly awful websites I just love your personality to bits because you're so you and so confident in yourself through everything you go through and I love bloody that


I've been planner-ing since like september, but just over the last month or so i've MADE myself include time for casual art making (i.e. filling in my sketchbook, doodling, coloring in, and making music) and i LOVE ITTTTT. ALSO be unapologetically you. how boring would it be if we were all the same. <br>so you're a bit dramatic, so what? it makes you you and i love it.

Oh my gosh, I love your desk. What's the name of it? I've been looking for one lately and that one looks really lovely. ☺


Today's my late grandfather's birthday (the first of which I've had without being able to call him and shit bc you know... He's dead) and I've been kinda spaced out all day just remembering all the shit I forgot to tell him and... It was really nice to be able to watch this and not think about it for a while. Thank you.


Geez, I'm sorry to hear about the whole house. That seem really difficult. I move a lot, so I'll never understand that feeling. But I do get it to an extent, when my great grandparents had to move into a home and I had to say goodbye to their house. Every holiday was there. Anyways, here for you Dodie!

Oh, yes, I miss my great grandma's house SO MUCH


hey dodie i have been binge watching all your videos and i just watched one of your sadder videos about your state of mind and im honestly so fucking proud that you are at peace rn and u are so much better than those youtuber hater pages so dont bother looking


I'm so happy that Doddie is doing VEDIF because its my birthday month and I LOVE Doddie sooooooo much <3


im so glad you're feeling better and enjoying life and everything right now! i love you!!!!!


Miss Dodie Clark, I just love watching videos of you talking about random things. I got about halfway through before I realized we weren't actually having a conversation together.


I love that you're dramatic and you talk about what things are and what things mean and what we can learn, it helps us all!!


My family home, both my grandparents' houses (which I spent a lot of time at as a child) and my great Nana's house were all sold in the same year and it was SO upsetting for me. I am definitely far too sentimental!!


I love this kind of self accepting. That you're able to take traits about yourself that might not be good or that might be seen as stupid by others or unpopular, and you are proud of them and recognize that it is who you are! I appreciate and learn from that. In relation, I've found with minimalism that I, personally, AM super sentimental and in the long run I like having some things that can make me smile or remember a good time and just because I don't throw them the hell out doesn't mean I'm not doing good enough or that I need to be <b>more minimalist</b>. Just do what makes you feel happy and proud of yourself :)

also i am filled with so much joy when you say that you are fairly content that is a wonderful thing!!!


You should totally get the secret garden colouring book by johanna basford! it's the perfect mix between intricate and actually being able to colour.


I really like your vlogs, doddie, they make me feel like I could make some occaisionally. I just wonder if you could open up captioning for your videos if you would prefer not to pay a captioning service, because I'm sure you have lots of hard of hearing fans who would love that. Also, all the deaf fans who don't even know how wonderful you are. :D Just a thought, I hope you have a wonderful day.


My parents moved houses -- and states -- after my brother and I left for college. I thought it'd be really difficult to say goodbye to the house, but it was surprisingly easy to adjust to the new place. The part that mattered was that my family was together wherever we were, not which house we lived in. It really did feel like home is where the heart is. I hope it'll be like that for you too! <3


Dodie,
Today I found out the waitlist for mental health treatment is over 6 months long. I curled up in a ball in my bed and was so suicidal (again). Then you put up this video. You made me feel like I might be able to make it. Thank you so much Xx
P.S. I'm a 'dramatic' 'feeler' too. It's both a blessing and a curse but we've got this.
All my Love,
Leah


it's so freaking refreshing for someone not apologizing when people pick at so called flaws. Dodie, you're a human. if you weren't too dramatic, you'd be shit at YouTube. you have a certain way of being that is unique and great to watch. keep on being dramatic!


i love watching her snapchats. its a little thing at the end of the day where i can go to watch another human go about a very different day in a very different way


WOW Dodie you have once again made me more comfortable with myself!!! I'm the most dramatic person I know lmao literally nothing happens that isn't a big deal to me


hey you're a beautiful person and you make the people that watch you so happy !


you should do another asmr vid for vedif!!! love the ones you've done in the past :)


this video is so calming and cute and it just makes me feel happy and calm


My parents sold my childhood home in October (I still lived with them, too.) We moved in when I was 3 and I lived there for 20 years. I knew it was coming, but it was one of the hardest things I've gone through and I still cry, sometimes over the silliest most random thoughts. It feels so ridiculous to me to call it grieving because it's a place not like a person or pet I loved died, but that's exactly the process you go through. :/ Use your artistic abilities to help you cope; it really helped me.


I really want her to to do a cover of her old song "little room" in her old house before they sell it


I was in a show, Peter and the Starcatcher, several months ago. whenever I go in the building it was in, hear lines from it, see my friends from it, it takes me back. I'm hecka sentimental too. I loved my time during that show and it was one of the best times of my life so far and it feels weird that single words can make me feel so much but they do. I'm sentimental too and it's okay. I think it's the opposite of cynicism in some ways and it's a nice break from that because I'm a jaded college kid and I'm snarky about everything xD


I am going through similar fam things (house being sold, moving, passing etc) there's this poem that I think is really nice at addressing it called the violets by Gwen Harwood. I would suggest reading it and also listening to everything stays on adventure time constantly


I just want to watch you talk for ages. I swear watching your videos always make me feel like I can get my shit together and be in that peaceful vibe your videos give.


It shows INCREDIBLE maturity to be able to learn from and be inspired by shitty parts of life. Stay proud, love.


It's crazy how similar I feel to you dodie. I live in the past and I feel like I've always had major depersonalization issues but now that I know it's a thing, I feel like it's gotten worse. I sometimes catch myself and have a little "woah what was that" moment and then go back into my spaces out-ness. I know we are somewhat figuring out these things at the same time, so I guess there isn't much advice to be given, and that's ok. But I just would like to know if you or anyone else has any tips to try and get out of spaced out land because I'm kinda getting sick of it. Much love❤


Can I just say that i love dodie's audience? Whenever someone comments something negative, most people try to correct their point of view and then say something positive. bless you all ♡proud♡


Please do a chatty makeup video love watching them :)) x


dodie's chats are so lovely, like a chat you would have with a old friend :)


I love how dramatic you are, it's so boring when people have no passion and hide their emotions


Are you ever going to read imagines with Lucy Moon like you said you'd think about in her baking video???? Becuase it would be so funny and awesome if you did!!!!


For me, it's the smell of hairspray. I was a competitive dancer for 8 years and on early competition days, the whole dressing room smelled like cheap hairspray. At 13, when I began getting jobs and gigs for dancing, my foot doctor said that if I don't stop dancing immediately, I won't be walking at 30. Now, almost 4 years later, I style hair for weddings and formal events and the smell of cheap hairspray takes me back. It used to be a sad smell, but now it's turning into a happy, memorable smell. Thank you Dodie xx


My parents sold my childhood home without telling me, when I left for college across the country. I was devastated! Even driving through my hometown isn't the same anymore.


About two years ago me and my family had to move to a different city and that meant we had to move out of the house on the countryside that we lived in for like 13 years. I was living in there since I was 3 and my parents built this house themselves (of course with helpers haha). My parents were also upset and my little brother of course but I felt like it had the biggest impact on me. I grew up there, on the countryside with so many children until I was 16. The most important time of my life (I feel like) I spent there and suddenly I had to move out. It was hard and I really really miss it still, but the place we live in now has much more advantages, so I am accepting it.

btw I love your new icon and I love vedif! So happy youre doing it!


It makes me sad that anyone feels the need to comment on your personality. How did you get so far in life? Simply by being yourself. You are not dramatic, you are insightful. For some of us lost souls, your advice is just what we need to hear. Keep on being you, Dodes. You are perfect as you are.


So nice seeing you in a happy chilled place.


I moved out of this house I'd lived in for literally my entire life two years ago and it was the worst thing ever. I went to the house when we were still in the process of doing it up for the new owners with my mother and I walked around the garden and just balled my eyes out bc "I didn't appreciate it enough" lol. sometimes I miss it and I'm there in a lot of my dreams and it took me a good few months (if not the whole first year) to accept the change (im AWFUL with change) but it was for the better and i think it helped me grow as a person. dw dodes, you'll be okay 💙


aw aw my parents sold my family home a lil while ago, and even though i'm uni & all 'grown up' it was the worst. i hope it all goes ok !! <3


One of my closest friends call me "sensitive" and "overdramatic", which kind of hurts but I've accepted it by now. I think part of my identity as an artist comes from how dramatic I am, and now looking at these words from another perspective, maybe they're not such terrible traits to have ¯\<i>(ツ)</i>/¯

I do the same thing! I'm either looking back or forwards, if you have any tips about being in the present would you consider doing a video? 😊


I can't believe I didn't know you grew up in Epping when I was there! It would have felt so cool imagining you walked these streets and maybe even went to this cute coffee shop (it was called dada? I think?). Ah, I'm weird. However, I'm really sorry your family house is being sold, but the most important thing is that you still have your family and your memories. <3


Dodie I love your attitude to everything. I just love you 🌵


over the summer I moved from my house that I've lived in my whole life and then I started college so I can understand what you're going through! It's so weird to think that I'll never spend another holiday there or go downstairs to the kitchen where my dad is making pancakes and it was definitely really tough for a few months, especially when I was adjusting to college and just wanted to go home but I couldn't. I know it's just a part of ~growing up~ or whatever but it still sucks. Howeverrr it really does get easier with time and as much as I hated people telling me home is where the heart is, it's true! Haha anyways I can't wait for more vedif!!!


I think I know how you're feeling Dodie, my childhood home, which me and my brother and sister were BORN in, is going to be put up for sale this spring and it's kind of breaking my heart. :(


Dodie thank you for doing what you do. With regards to alcohol (i know that was yesterday but like day two) I struggle with it and finding sober strains... It's complicated for me. The best I have is like, I imagine what heroin would do to me, the pure bliss I hear described by people with similar personalities to mine. Can I imagine life without heroin? yes of course thats my whole life i've never done it (if anyone has I'm not judging I would love to join you but I mustn't because I would be immediately addicted I'm sure and I cant imagine but I hope you can back to us and love pure life again!) and I try to extrapolate that back to alcohol and my life prior to that addiction. It doesn't like solve it for me but it gives me perspective when I ask honestly of myself, I guess, if that makes any sense.


I completely get it dodie! A couple years back I had to say goodbye to my family home that I had lived in my whole life and thought I would never leave. It is really hard to let it go, and I know I found it hard bc as we drove away all I did was ball my eyes out SO...but with time you just move on and it's always and always will be a major part and place in my life. It still comes back to me sometimes in waves when I remember weird little things like the bath taps and the lavender outside, but I am happy and here and present and I won't let my self forgot the place where I grew up. X


dodie you're the absolute fucking best. I relate so hard and I'm glad you embrace it so I can learn to as well


dont change because we (or maybe me only) loves how you make everything dramatic. :) if you didn't make things a little bit dramatic you wouldnt have anything to talk about. So, kudos to that


Sometimes it's the small things that affect us the most and the tiniest of things that can affect us immensely and that's okay! Sometimes we experience something that seems mundane to everyone around us, but to us it takes us on a nostalgic bittersweet journey down memory lane x


I LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU IM SO HAPPY FOR VEDIF THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS ❤


Honestly, I just really really REALLY want you to be my friend in real life. You just seem so nice and warm and genuine.
I just ugh I don't even know. Plus I'm going through a huge shit rough thing right now that I really don't know how to deal with and I feel like a deep conversation with you and a glass of wine on a balcony under the stars would help loads.
Okay that's it, I guess. I just think that you're a great human being and I really enjoy your vibes. :)


I thought I was the only one that is sometimes so content I could cry!!


These titles are so genuine and I love it!


Love your snapchats! Keep doing what you're doing girl! :-)


I never thought I'd enjoy hearing a young woman talking about the randomest shit and painting In a children's book, thankyou


I am also an incredibly sentimental person. I had to sell my childhood home when I was 12 and after that I slowly started to realize that things from my childhood were vanishing one by one. Well, I actually first noticed when I was nine and I lost my stuffed bunny that I always slept with. Not gonna lie, I sobbed for like three weeks. But, that being said, I have realized that although the things may no longer exist, the memories are still there. The feelings I got during those times will never leave. I can still treasure that!


i honestly love your side channel because you just sit in front of the camera and talk about whats on your mind. its a thing that not too many youtubers do, and i love you for that. everything that im going thru, youve probably gone thru it too. and your videos were you sit down and color, or do something, and just talk. you just let your brain and mind take you to these places that i didnt know exist. its so beautiful, and it helps me a lot. im so glad your doing vedif this month. youll probably never see this lmao but your videos are so nice and i love you lots. <3


I find it so fascinating that you do the right amount of snaps and claps for your intro title.


This sounds a bit emo but the smell of hair dye ALWAYS takes me back to a time where i was depressed, and I will tell you, it DOES get better :)


If someone called me too dramatic then I'd definitely take it as a compliment, seriously why would they think that taking something small in your life and learning from it is a bad thing?? Also this video made me feel so peaceful and happy after having a stressful day


DODES just wanted to mention im v proud of u, love u <3


honestly same about the "dramatic" thing. like my friends always tell me that i turn everything into a deep topic, and like yeah! i do! i like it! thinking deeply is super fun


Hey Dodes,

Talking about your family house reminded me of this past fall, when I was off on my first semester at college and my mother told me she'd be selling our family house in the new year. It made economic sense and all, but nostalgia doesn't care about that. :') For it to be sold, it needed to be spruced up, and my room (which I painted myself at 13) was the first to go. Admittedly, it wasn't a great paint job, but I still missed it when it was gone, and all this happened while I was away at school. By the time the holidays rolled around, we found out that she wouldn't have to sell the house at all /if/ she took in tenants. Long story short, I didn't lose my growing-up home, but I did lose the room I made my own when I couldn't control much else. It's not the same, I know, but it's something. You helped me say goodbye to my little room, too, so thank you for that. <3 As for your childhood home, I hope you take the memories from this place and carry them to the next one, as you'll always have those. :)

Love from Virginia,
Chelsea


I wish you would record audio books. Your voice is so soothing


i feel you about being dramatic and making things into life lessons!! i think its because my only "good" coping mechanism is writing, so when anything happens i do end up writing about it and making it into something big as a way to deal with it<br>like when my aunts big country home was sold it definetly was like letting a chapter end because it assume it with a huge part of my childhood and you know what? if it took me weeks of writing nostalgic poetry to get over it, so be it. at least the memories were kept ~alive~

You're always talking about how therapeutic it is to make these kinds of videos, but did you know that they're also therapeutic to all your viewers☺. I watch your regular talking videos when I'm feeling down because it feels like I'm having a friend over and we're just talking about random stuff, only it's just you talking... but still. I love your videos sm!!! (I'm commenting this again because I want it to get noticed lol)


Dodie i love your snaps???? they make me so happy and make me feel like im along for the adventure


Big tip! After finding out my Mum n Step-F were selling my childhood home when I was 18 (whole life lived there). I walked around every square inch and took a ton of photos (this is pre-mobile phone era - actually develop film at the chemist cameras).
If I could go back - I'd video record each space and maybe narrate a couple positive stories that took place in each space.
That way I could preserve the memories and images better. Good luck moving forward - and let yourself feel all the feels you need to! F*k off with those who try to bait you or judge!


you are so adorable! Love you Dodie! xx <3


Hell yeah, dodie, nothing wrong with being dramatic. It's fun, and sometimes it's proof that you feel things and are alive. I'm dramatic too, and I love it. :)


Dodie, quick question but where did you get your string lights behind you? They are adorable


oohhhhh my god i relate so much. when my childhood house gets sold im going to be a MESS. it's all i knew bc that was the only house i ever lived in - like i never moved or anything. i also relate to the smelling your foundation thing. i have strong memories associated with smells and music.


You seem very down to earth lately, honestly. Also: O MY GOSH TYPEWRITER


My family home was sold this year and it was a HUGE deal for me. Like a major marker and turning point in my year. So I so get it!


I kinda get you on the house thing. My parents changed our mail box like a week before I left for boarding school back when, and I absolutely flipped internally.


Oh dearest Dodie. Wish you all the best ! love love love your way


I moved out of my childhood house when I was in first grade. It is easier for me because I was so young but it was still hard. It got bought by a company and they demolished it a month later. If I could put my childhood in one scene, it would be the tire swing in the backyard. I live in the same town, but when I drive by the empty yard with woods lining the edge, I can't help but think it was a warning that bad times and the end of my childhood was just around the corner. It's hard to look back and realize that it's all gone.


I completely get you with the family house thing. I've lived in my family house pretty much since I was born, and my nan and grandad lived in it before that and they were the first ones to buy it. I don't know what I'd do if my mum sold it or moved, it was bad enough me having to move out for University! So yeah, I completely understand. That's all I wanted to say :P :) xxx


That's exactly what I like about you, that you are 'dramatic' so to say and that you see in 'every thing that happens' a learning curve. because there is. and you a great and you are better for it. Don't let people get you down. You are strong. X


i've been going to this one week summer camp every year for the past three years and i love it there so so so so much and i always manage to make friends there and it's honestly always one of the greatest weeks of summer ever filled with dancing and deep talks and warm rain and laughter and
i was in class on.. monday?? i think?? and for some reason the class we were in smelled like.. something, i didn't know what, but at first i felt like it reminded me of something, but i didn't know what. then i smelled it again, stronger this time, and i swear, all of the memories from camp just came flooding and the whole lesson i couldn't concentrate on anything, i just stuck my neck out so i could smell it, breathed in the scent and smiled to myself like an idiot oh man it was great

I love you dodie. The amount of times I think about you or talk about you is crazy. You have just given me such joy. You are the one youtuber that I sincerely crave a hug from, or a conversation with, or a friendship. I'm so inspired by your music and (recently) positive outlook. I know you'll probably never read this but I just wanted to let you know, you're are pretty rad


I found Dodie's videos right after being diagnosed with anxiety and a few stress-related disorders and I was really spiraling down, but Dodie somehow made it seem all ok, especially her music. I'm now struggling a lot with friends and family who all have valid opinions on what meds I should and shouldn't take, and it's stressful as hell, but Dodie always seems to just take my mind off of it and get my heart rate back to normal (it sounds so weird but its true) and just make me feel good about the world and myself. Dodie might never see this comment but that's alright, what matters is that she's an inspiration and an amazing person :))) ily dodie!!!!


for your family house, i moved to america when i was 8, and a year or so ago, our apartment got bought by some guy and hearing you talk about your family house getting sold made me cry a lil' because i remember what that was like. so I guess my advice is let yourself cry and be nostalgic but create as many memories as you can in the place you live now. it's really hard to see your childhood disappear and it's alright to still get upset about it a while after it happened.


My family home (or like, the home I lived in for the longest part of my childhood) was sold in the summer and I have some advice if you want it: if you get a chance to go back to the house before it's sold, maybe take some time to sit in each room and actively remember stuff about it - like, stuff you did in there, where the furniture is/was, how the light comes in through the windows, the smell, books you read, songs you listened to, things like that. Then write what you remember down, or make a video (not necessarily to post, just to have), or do whatever it is that might help compartmentalize your thoughts. If you don't get to go back, then maybe look at whatever photos or videos you have and do the same thing. It might seem overly-sentimental and like you're trying to make yourself sad, but I've found that a few months down the line it's helped to be able to put myself back there in my head and just like. Let myself miss it for a bit? Plus reading back on what I wrote down then and remembering stuff I would have forgotten by now makes me smile. Then again, my brother didn't do that and he's seemed fine since so idk, for you that might be the worst idea ever and what you need is to just rip off the plaster bc people are all different, but in case you've not had much advice that's derived from experience. There's some.

And also, just. This is a very ok thing to be sad and dramatic about. Houses are important. Leaving them is emotional. Sometimes you've just got to let yourself feel stuff before you move on from it.


I went to Ikea the other day too. You're right it, can be therapeutic. I came out with three bookcases a cactus and a Venus fly trap.


i  relate a lot to having sentimentalality with things and never being able to give them away


This is undeniably the most kind unjudgemental fandom ever. Its so safe I love it.

Looking back that could have been written better but you know what i meant.


My family is moving from our house of 10 years and we're packing up currently it's so WEIRD. I totally get where you're coming from.


I'm smiling because your laptop says "Dorothy's MacBook Pro" and I love your name Dodes, it's so beautiful. You are a wonderful human being.


dodessss i'm in the same exact situation with my family home: i'm gonna sell it in a few weeks and i'm struggling with the thought of not being able to freely walk around the rooms and spots that, not only i was raised in, but also my mum and my uncle were.
Also, being the exageratly sentimental person that i am, while emptying my room, i realized how much of a hoarder i am by keeping EVERY SINGLE THING that reminded me of my childhood (which is way too fucking many btw).
My plan of being a minimalist has been shattered by a folder filled with magazine articles about the jonas brothers and fruit-scented gel pens.


THIS JUST MADE ME SO HAPPY THAT I STARTED CRYING IDK WHY. WHY AM I SO EMOTIONAL


I find it so funny the idea of having a childhood house, I can totally understand how you would get so attached. I've just turned 18 and lived in 9/10 houses so have never had that luxury but I think it would be nice, I've just always been taught that it doesn't matter about the house but what you do with it and who your with.


I was just thinking about the smell-memory thing at my therapist's office (you inspired me to do something about my mental disabilities... yes i am mentally disabled and i didn't know it.. so thank you :D ) where I was using a certain type of glue that i used to use with my mom making little toddler crafts :)


im in the same situation and don't know how i feel either!! i moved into my house when i was six and even though I'm at uni now and i don't live there and my parents are getting a divorce so it will never be the same family home, my life was in that house and I'm scared of letting it go x


"I just, I think deeply, alright?" of course it is, you're not broken, remember? you're just a deep feeling magic being <3


I don't think you are dramatic at all. You just feel a lot so you talk about it... I don't see how thats a bad thing, especially cause your videos help other people who are feeling the same way. fuck da haters, you're wonderful ily dodie <3


My childhood home was a boat that my mom lived aboard, and about two months ago it burned down which obviously meant I had to say goodbye to it very suddenly. And to me, boats very much have personalities and almost souls - I'd spent the past 10 years personifying this boat, and loving her and going on adventures, and the boat has been in my life longer than any of my friends or anyone beyond my immediate family, and it's been really, really difficult to say good bye. And like, I can't even go back and visit ever because she's just gone, doesn't exist any more. I'm also really prone to romanticizing the past and not letting go of things, so I've been struggling with it a lot. But losing such an important part of your past and something that helped make you who you are is really hard, and it makes sense to be upset and make a big deal about it. It'll be okay, and we'll get through it, but it's important, and you should treat it as such.


Dodie, when I was 12 I had to move away from the home I grew up in because my parents got a divorce, I now have to drive past that house everyday on my way to work and keep seeing the changes slowly being made and it's horrible. It breaks my heart. But since that house I have moved 14 times. You will learn not to get so attached to things the more you have to say goodbye and I know that doesn't sound like fun but trust me it makes life a lot easier. I'm only 19 now but saying goodbye to a house is the easiest thing I can do. I understand your connection with the past. Hell I even have a box full of objects that remind me of my childhood or things that make me too happy to explain. Keep them, pull them out when your sad but don't let it make you more sad when you are remembering. Make it a happy time, I promise it will get easier. To anyone reading this, smile, today will be a good day. I love you all xxx


Thanks for uploading I was having a terrible day, you are like a little ray of sunshine


My mum sold my childhood home and I completely freaked out. I'm still not over it.. it's been 3 years now. It's so hard to accept. I feel your pain.


your voice puts me to sleep and i love it


Sluuuuuuuuurp. Getting PJ vibes and I LOVE IT.


dodie you are wonderful and people who think otherwise (in a non-constructive way) do /not/ matter! ^_^


I'm "dramatic" and sentimental too. Spirituality is very important to me and I find meaning and - more importantly - LESSONS in soooo many parts of life. Whenever something happens that I struggle with, I analyze it and find a lesson. It's very important to me. I also tend to over-analyze and over-think things, because it's fascinating and I love thinking about everything. One day I was telling my close friend about how my life was going. I was doing some thinking/analyzing about myself. I asked her what she thought, and she told me that I was too "self-absorbed."
Alright, fine. That was when I realized that although we'd been wonderfully close friends for a while, we'd actually drifted apart pretty significantly over the past few months. So I ended the friendship. It was pretty mutual at that point.
I don't know what the point of this comment was. I guess the point is that I've been "dramatic," sentimental, and self-reflective for a long time and lots of people don't understand and even look down on it, but I don't care. This is how I fundamentally am; it's how I process my life, and it's interesting to me. So I wouldn't change it. I'm happy with the way I am and the way that I experience life.


I mean I think ur adorable Dodie and I love that u make everything into a life lesson BECAUSE I DO THE SAME THING one time I rolled back on my bed, hit my head on the wall and literally wrote a poem about it because I'm DRAMATIC and ur an artist Dodie so of course you're dramatic. Art feeds off minds like your's. I hope that you continue to grow and learn and change and make beautiful things that come from your beautiful mind because I can't wait to hear/ see it. Love 💛


random question, Dodie. Where do you get your string lights?


I'm gonna color too, Dodie. This is a great idea.


its so weird to see how you react the way you do to the loss of your family home - i never had any strong ties to neither my family 'place' nor my family too much. it's probably because we lived in something close to a shelter than an actual home and the fact that my parents emotionally abused me throughout my entire teen years. i can honestly never imagine being so strongly affected by this. i kind of have this little veil over the years of my life before i moved away at age 18 and i just don't feel anything towards them at all? my parents also separated a little while after i was gone already and that never even hit me either, just like never really cared. up until of course my dad started stressing me out with suicide threats. ugh.

i think i just splurted out a lot of personal stuff. eek. (i'm ok now, though i could never forgive them - my plan for this year is to finally go see a therapist and talk this whole thing through)


I moved out of my family house a year and a half ago and i cant think or look at it without getting hopelessly sad so i can relate


you do you Dodie we love ya as you are :) xx


aw dodie, i know how you feel about your family house. i know it's like you have to say goodbye, but that's not true. you still have your childhood memories and even some of your characteristics. everything else will still be with you. and you can keep some of the things in your house too. it's all still gonna be ok. and now, new people get to make happy memories in that house so that's good too. ilysm❤❤


Dodie, I am so like you, everyone says I'm really dramatic, but I don't really mind at this point!


What kind of microphone do you use because the sound quality is like 10/10! <br>Also, SUPER excited about VEDIF!

Also, SUPER excited about VEDIF!


The other day I found what minimalism is. Though I have the same problem as Dodie. I'm EXTREMELY sentimental. I hate it, because I don't want a lot of stuff or anything like that, but I'm so sentimental.


Dodie should make more ASMR videos for VEDIF!!!


This video is just you talking in away that really reminds me of the way I think everyday, and I love it.


I relate to this so much and when you said you were selling your family house i felt my heart breaking my god


Man your workspace is so clean and cool. Nice


Your shirt looks like the most comfortable thing on earth I love it so much!


Literally after the video was over I found myself clapping my hands and whispering yaaay!


don't worry whenever i smell the perfume i wore when i met dan and phil i just have a meltdown of happiness and sadness


Dodie -
One way to describe it is "dramatic" but I think a better word for it is "enthusiastic." I love your enthusiasm and passion for life and working hard to be better and better.
You have such a unique energy. Anyone who calls that "dramatic" is just jealous that they lack your passion, conviction and enthusiasm for life. :)

My mum sold our family home during summer last year. As much as I wasn't that bothered as I've definitely moved on from that house, I've been getting the feeling recently that I want to go home, and obviously I can't. It sucks really, but there's not much I can do about it!


yes you may be dramatic... but that's what makes your followers love you. we feel like your music and videos are so raw and personal! you don't seem to make videos just to please others and genuinely look passionate about what you do. I wish you the greatest success as you really deserve it and put a smile on my face even when you don't think that's possible xx thank you


PLEASE MAKE SOME ASMR WITH THAT BOOK, LOVE YOU


awe dodie your so fricken adorable and cute! i love you and your little vlog so much! also your room is super cute especially those little lights:) - abby


is it weird that my kitten loves Dodie almost as much as I do ?


My grandmother passed away recently, and I have felt inside me an almost instant transformation from childhood to adulthood. My grandfather is still living, but I have to almost take care of him. The house still smells, feels, breathes of her, and I know it will have to be sold eventually. I know I have my memories, but memories fade. That house is not the landmark of my childhood. She is. However, the house to her is like the cross to Jesus. I cannot hug her or speak to her, but I can feel her there like a Christian feels God as they pray to a cross. My point is that I can relate, and I hope that you remember that a place can exist fully in your memory. I hope I can remember that as well. xx

"Take your broken heart and make it into art" is my mantra right now. I now have an inexplicable hole in my life that will always be there. I would rather let art flow out of that black hole rather than let myself be dragged into it.


"Who else am I gonna film, what the heck?" hahaha I love you so much <3


DODIE!! I HAVE A STORY FOR YOU; so I had hand surgery like 2 days ago and when I woke up in recovery the nurse looked IDENTICAL to you (except she had blonde hair) and I, in my drowsy state, was like wtfffff why is blonde dodie next to my bed, is this an angel? 😂


2.5 years ago my grandparents sold the house that my mum and uncle grew up in and my brother, cousins and I spent so much of our childhood in. I may or may not have almost accidentally bid a million dollars on it at the auction :D I was so upset when it happened and honestly looking back, I'm still upset about it BUT I've also learnt to be happy with their new place because it's where my family is and that's the most important thing :D


I love how dodies videos are all trending

doddlevloggle this is what i'm thinking all the time

IT'S LIKE NICE?!?!? but also there are a lot of dicks that come from outside our bubble lol. but also nice new people! but also dicks


I know what you mean about the feeling of having your childhood family home sold. My parents not only sold our house but their business. I thought I was going to run the business when I grew up so I was devastated. It took me about 8 years to realize I had no other goal in my life other than to run that business and I had find to a new one.


i love how that flying tiger mug is positioned at the beginning of the video so that it says "i'm a bi" and it's probably not intentional but it made me smile


I'm slightly upset she never showed the finished product of her painting 😂... I know it's a coloring book but I still wanna see it.


aw yay i'm so glad for vedif (also I get the whole parents selling childhood house thing, they've just started talking about it, im at uni now and really far away, just them selling it doesnt just officially mean my childhood is over but it really cuts me off from that part of my life because then I no longer have any reason to go back to where I grew up)


i absolutely adore your snapchats please never change for others!!!


It is weird to feel so close to a person that you dont even know, that  lives sooo away from and still feels like a friend. It is so strange but so nice at the same time...


Never listen to them dodie. You are the person who makes people happy and you have 1 million people who love you. People see you as their role model and in just a few minutes you put people in a good mood and give them good advice.


This reminds me of a couple months ago when we got a new fridge and I cried cuz I didn't want anything to change. It's so stupid but true.


Alright so I know this is a really late comment but WHATEVER! I just needed to agree with Doddie here because I literally, like fifteen minutes ago (not even) had a really deep conversation with my friends about the universe and I just felt so small and worthless and like "what the hell is the point of life" and honestly, Doddie your videos, over the past two or three years have helped me realize that there are some people who have bigger problems then me (like losing their childhood home, like I would not be holding it together) or that there are so many people that feel the same as me, and what is the point of doubting yourself or living in the past or worrying about the future when you could be having the time of your life right NOW. Thank you so so so so SO much for causing me to be happy. No way to thank you enough for literally being a therapy for me.


My mum is in the process of selling my childhood home as well. It's really weird because I still live there during the weekends when I'm not at uni and knowing that as of this summer I will be leaving that bedroom that has been a safe space to me for years is making me feel really weird. There is no accurate description to say how I feel about it. <br>I know logically the move will be good because the house is costing my mum more than it's worth, but I'll be sad to leave it all behind.

I know exactly how you feel about your childhood home being sold. My mother wanted to build a new home so we were going to tear down our old one and I was a little sad about it. It was the only house I ever lived it and while it was quite old and semi-starting to fall apart, it was my home. In August of 2016 (summer here is the states) there was a fire in my town and my house burnt down. The fire came through so quickly that all I had to time to grab were clothes that I never bothered hanging up. It pains me to know that my last moments in the home I grew up in were panicked and scared. All my life I always wondered what I would do if my house burnt down, what would I save? Everything from my childhood gone. All my little drawings, baby pictures, and little nicknacks gone.


Okay you know what? Selling your childhood home when you lived there almost all your life is HARD. ITS REALLY HARD AS A DEEPLY SENTIMENTAL PERSON. For those of us who are sentimental it's not just a place you lived it's where you grew up, it's where your memories live. You look at the kitchen table and remember all the birthday candles you blew out there. You see the front door and remember the horrible kiss that first date ended in. My parents sold my childhood home (which they'd had for nearly thirty years) when I was 21 and I cried so much. SO good on you Dodie for trying to learn something from the experience. It's hard but you end up finding new places to make memories.


Actually this ,,dramatic life lessons" are my favourite thing, because they stoped me from stuped choices and teached me what to not miss.

i relate to this, my freshman year of high school was hell but now that i've switched schools all i can think of is how good it was and how much i miss it.....ahhh brains are dumb


I feel the same about adult colouring books! I'd rather do my own drawings!


I relate so much to this title!<br>My ex girlfriend even used to call me low key-drama queen and I kinda want this nickname to last even though I don't think she always meant it in a good way, I don't care (anymore), I love it 😁🎉

you "life learning videos" are THE BEST ONES!!!!


I know how you feel about the childhood house. I went to uni this year and my parents decided to move just before I left and it was so sad to say goodbye to the place I'd grown up in, it became a part of me. Now I don't feel like I have a home. I live in halls, which isn't very homey as you can imagine, and now when I go back to my parents I sleep on the sofa and don't feel like that's my home, it's really sad


Aww Dodie! I understand a bit of how you feel. Long story short, I moved in with my grandparents, mom passed away and my childhood home w her is gone & now I've moved out to my own little place. My gparents are getting older and might need extra help so they might have to give up their house someday to go to a nursing home. :( The only advice I really have about giving up things and not having them anymore is to take photos of them! I took pics of my moms shoes before I threw them away.


I relate to this house thing so muchhhhh. My house that I have been living in my whole life is being sold in like two weeks and I physically am not able


the coloring book made me so happy and took me back to your snapchat and the ducks that identified as birds
