Instead of a movie, story or TV show, I will go with a video game. Zelda, Ocarina of time. I identified with Link because he was the outcast of the Kokiri forest. He strives to be strong and go through an epic journey to find the triforce before Ganondorf does. Growing up, I didn't feel like I really fit in. I felt unsafe, and therefore a need to be strong. I don't really see how I need to rescue my "Princess Zelda" in my life, nor do I really see any particular epic journey or some ominous super evil like Ganondorf. I guess I am still unconscious. Gross.

Coffee. I use it to stay awake so I can ignore how sleep deprived I am. Exercise. I use it to overcompensate by having a more attractive body shape so as to ignore my other physical insecurities. Making art. I do this so I can feel better by seeing myself as talented so I don't feel like a pathetic, worthless piece of crap. Ditto for working hard and long hours. Visualization. I do this so I can pretend I'm not lonely and have my needs for physical affection met. Message from my pain and what it is trying to tell me what I want and need: sleep, working on a secret project that entails my life purpose.

Hell yes I want to see you do a video on media!

...I don't get it...

This is relatable. Thanks for sharing!

My side effect would be whatever drug causes you to be extremely focused on imagination/your thoughts in general. It would be a side effect that is extremely ungrounding but not necessarily out of body per se.

Creative.

Drawing/doodling my negative emotions Listening to darker music Wearing colours that express darker emotions such as reds, dark greens, dark blues, etc. Ranting Taking kratom Crying Pacing back and forth just thinking about things

Yes, I am interested in a video on death. Thank you for directly asking your audience Miss Swan!

I could listen to Swan speak all day!

Where the eff is the rest of this? Please tell us!

I would want to be my favourite anime character Lina Inverse. She is a ridiculously powerful sorceress and I would love to know what it would be like to go on crazy adventures and hold enormous destructive power!

For anyone who is impatient, you can read the script for the video here: https://tealswan.com/resources/articles/what-every-man-should-know-about-women-r344/

I like personal segments like this. It's really interesting to see Swan with how she deals with these types of "everyday issues" in a very practical way that is very much grounded in what she teaches.

These segments/questions are interesting. I feel like the audience really wants to see more of this kind of content.
