Good afternoon everyone I hope your all doing well and keeping safe.

As you all know I was very young when I had my hear attack but I have picked my self up and I have come along way to where I am today.

Last night when I came back on here after being away for 3 months I came up with an idea. Would anyone be interested if I started a YouTube channel and posted weekly.

In my first video I'm going to be talking about how it all started.

What age was I when we found out I was poorly, what problems I have and how it effects my life emotionally and physically. I'm going to be talking about how i coped with it any what makes me push my self to try and fight on difficult and hard days.

sorry I'm no good at spelling as you can kind of tell. if I was to do YouTube it wouldn't be for attention as I don't want attention I want to help younger people who have health conditions and who doesn't have a lot of motivation or positive support I want to let them know there not alone and help them achieve the things they want in life.

I want to help them cope in education time and help them pass there exams by speaking positively.

I want to help them overcome the face of bullying and how to stand up to it.

There is a lot more id like to write but id be here forever lol.

It wouldn’t just be about me tho. I wouldn’t name my YouTube that I’d name it something else.

Picky? How about a bit of encouragement? This is a peer to peer support group.

I thought the same but just kept quiet it’s a shame we get people like this in a support group 🥺

I can believe the spelling gurus who have commented please get a sense of perspective

As for the you tube if it helps you you go for it as a non young person I could be wrong here but what about tik tik

Yes tiktok is a great idea also I’ll have a think I’m unsure weather to even do YouTube now as with most of the mean comments it’s just given me dull motivation 🥺x

Hi Ellie. Would it not be safer for you to do a blog, rather than YouTube. Regards Dee.

You seem to be the kind of person he is trying to protect young people from. This is a support group and not a platform to publicly humiliate someone, especially someone who is trying to do good

I don’t get why he’s trying to protect young people from me? I’m not a bad person i just want to help young people who have health conditions to get through there time at school and through the nasty bullies. I have no intention of being harmful and never will I’m so disappointed in the mean comments when this is supposed to be a supports group 👎 we’re all supposed to support each other not bully them even more!

Ellie,

If you want to do it... do it!

Don’t let people tell you what you can and can’t do (provided you stay with in the law).

Some of the greatest sportsman, scientists and artists achieved greatness by doing things people said they couldn’t!

Let the people who still think the world is flat continue to pick fault with others.. Try it.. and if it doesn’t work out you tried your best 🙌

I would say go for it!! If it can help.just one person then it is worthwhile. It's very helpful when you have things that are not common (as a heart attack kn a young person) to have information feom someone who has been through it, it makes you feel less alone and scared.As for the replies that you say are putting you off doing it, ignore them. Do what YOU think is good.

And thank you for wanting to help, that is very nice of you.

Thankyou for the inspiration to not give up I’d love to help those who have been through such a traumatic experience as it had left a massive impact on my life but now I feel like I’m on top of the world I’m back at college and I am getting my life back to normality I just want to help those who feel the same way I did back when it first happened I want to tell them never to give up and always achieve that rainbow they want to achieve
