I remember feeling very alone and sad after having my son. I didn't have like a ton of friends coming by to visit me, and I had a lot of family members coming over, but it was still really overwhelming for me. It was like I just got so depressed that I wouldn't eat anything at all. I lost a lot of weight because of it, and I didn't look healthy. I also lost my desire to read, which is something I normally love doing.

I felt like a failure as a mother, like I wasn't doing everything right. There was no guide for me, no one to tell me what to do. It was scary for me, honestly. I think my husband can attest that it was a very dark period in my life. He's an amazing father and still is, but he didn't know how to help me as much as he could have. I don't know what made me have such bad postpartum depression, but it was really scary for me.

I suffered through that still honestly, if I love my son to pieces, but there are some weeks where he's very hard to handle, and I just find myself slipping back into that depression. That's just how it is sometimes. Postpartum depression is a very real and valid thing. If you ever have it or think you have it, don't hesitate to tell other people. I wish I did, I wish I reached out for more help, I think I could have gotten out of it a lot faster if I did.

I know that having postpartum depression is okay, it's okay to feel that way. It's not something to be ashamed of. There's nothing wrong with feeling sad and overwhelmed after having a baby. In fact, it's more common than you think. I think women need to talk about this more, so they can get the help they need.

I was talking to my friend Trina about how I'm a good cook, especially when it comes to tuna. She thought that about me too! I'm actually a pretty good cook, and I love cooking for my son and my husband. My ideal vacation is to go to the beach, and I've never broken a bone before... except for one time when I was in seventh grade playing softball, and I had to have surgery on my nose because it was shaped funny.

I also told Trina that I don't like pineapple on pizza or in general. She got all of those things right! She's very perceptive. And she said that I never lose my cool or level-headed when I'm angry. That's actually not true, though. When I get angry, it's because I get so fired up and emotional. But Trina was still accurate about other things.

One thing she got right is that I love Buffy the Vampire Slayer and go to Buffy nights with our girls. She also knows that I'm a total cat lady, which is true! And... well, let's just say that having snacks handy while reading books isn't really my thing anymore. Mostly because if I start snacking, my son will take my snack away from me. He doesn't like to share, and neither do I. So now I have to hide in the corner and hope he doesn't find me eating something.

I guess that's what it's like when you're a mom of a picky eater who hates sharing snacks. But overall, I was impressed by how accurately Trina got to know me, even though she didn't get everything right. Maybe this game is more about getting insight into our really boring lives than we think!

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhello-o so I have seen a ton of these assumption videos where basically people do assume things about you and you answer whether or not that is true or not so I thought hey let's do that let's see what people think about me and what they assume about me and whether it's real or not I have looked at some of them some of them are very accurate very on brand me some of them are very not like family how did you come up with that that is so not me but hey who knows we're gonna put the rumors to rest I guess nobody cares that much about me to like put a rumor I have someone Instagram and I have some on Twitter so I'm gonna get to both of those so yeah I think I have a lot of them so I'm gonna try to go since and relatively quickly and yeah let's do this what person said you're very shy and didn't have many friends in high school I had to present me I think I've said time and time again that high school was just horrible for me I hated high school I was definitely shy as picked on a lot this knows for sure so you got that right rage thinks that I am a Gryffindor you are correct Olli thinks that I'm a firstborn I just have that type of way about me well Julie you are correct I am a firstborn I have one younger brother who is four years younger than me and yeah I definitely fit the older sibling type because I don't I don't know I also a lot of things happen to him when he was younger I've talked about this a lot when he had cancer when he was younger and I think with he's fine now by the way oh he's 20 oh my god she's 26 I forget how old I am sometimes and thriving on but I think when that happened to him I got real old real fast so I think I like I'm 30 but I probably have freaking 40 because I'm just I don't know that's just how I am with being the first the firstborn and because of that had that happened to him anyway I have got I got a lot of assumptions that AI either wanted more children or B I don't want any more children I'm not gonna say anything on that regard uh it's very personal and I don't know quite yet how I feel about either one of those so I'm just gonna not talk about that one at all um manatees thinks that I am an introvert well I don't think I'm an introvert I think I am an extrovert with the hint of an introvert I don't know what to say about that know how to classify that but I it's very weird how you change because in high school I was very much an introvert now I am very much an extrovert I think that is because of my line of work with a wedding photographer I have to talk to people I don't know all the time at wedding receptions at weddings at events I have no problem no problem walking into a room people I don't know just start talking to someone that's the type of person I am that could be a good thing to you or a bad thing to you um it's not to say I don't have any social anxiety because I definitely do like yeah I'm gonna ruin people I don't know I'm like crap them in the room people I don't know but I'd rather much be like I'll talk to somebody and I'll find it in I'll find a connection to somebody here more - I don't know that's just what I do I mean I cashiers I don't I don't care so definitely an extrovert now that is for sure my husband is very much an introvert somebody else said I'm an introvert and also a homebody I am a homebody I love being at home so I'll give you that one I got a few assumptions that I was a cheerleader in high school I don't know if that's like to me I don't know if that's like speaking to my bubbly personality I get that a lot I have a bubbly person out of here on YouTube I was not a cheerleader in high school in fact I would dare say the cheerleaders hated me in high school or probably don't even know who I am didn't know who I was then definitely don't know who I am now so I wasn't actually in high school I wasn't cheerleader when I was like 5 to 10 so you got that one oh I love this one I assume you like talk with because doesn't everybody you are correct I do love tacos doesn't everybody you will pick Ron Weasley as your boyfriend any day over Edward and angel over Edward yes over angel oh I don't know I feel like I would pick angel because angel I loved angel before I loved Ron I'll just say that much so that's a little things I love this one you coupon or budget weekly I do both I am NOT one of those extreme couponers I've seen a ton of them at my store where they have a binder of coupons I tried to do that couldn't get into it I keep on occasionally when I have a coupon for something I already if I could find a coupon I buy for something regularly but I don't like plan out things with coupons no budgeting yes like do a budget my husband actually does the budget and we talk about it a lot because we are saving up for a new house we're actually gonna put our house in the market here very very soon to sell and so budgeting right now is our best friend it sucks harm he need to budget and you know we have the Dave Ramsey technique where every every dollar has a name it's going somewhere and it's harder now because we have it's very tight I'll just say that but it's for a purpose but yes budgeting if you don't budget I would recommend it I really do because you never really know where your money goes to take a long hard look at it and I will say ever since we've been really strict with our budgeting it's nice knowing where every single thing goes to rather than like I can't believe we where'd that money go where did it go oh it's because we went out to eat like this many times or II went to this random target trip or this random Walgreens or we went up to the movies you like that not to say that's not bad nothing it's bad totally do that but like put it in there if you can put it in your budget so you know that's where that money went and it was accounted for so yeah it's gonna sound really lame and old of me but if it don't work it works a lot of people have also said that I'm a very nice and calming presence like I'm a very nice person first of all thank you I like to think I'm nice I bet a lot of people don't think I'm nice like I think they think my husband's really nice and he is like he's so so nice so they probably hate me thank you but I mean thank you for thinking I'm nice calming no I'm very I'm very not calm no you love having a routine you were on a percent correct I thrive on routine that's just how I am that's how I always have been when I go to bed I like to know exactly what we do the next day that's just how I've always been oh and Amy said that you love target well Amy you are correct if I could live in target I would one of your crushes was Gordo from Lizzie McGuire I don't think I ever liked him like I mean I liked him in the show but I don't think I ever had a crush on him very interesting to think about I never thought of Ordo in that way so it's very interesting but he said you don't recycle that's offensive I do recycle and I really enjoy recycling I try to recycle constantly like let's just say when the garbage man comes every week my recycling bin is full i recycle as much as I can um you get stressed easily yes I do yes I have really bad anxiety I'd say stress triggered anxiety honestly like if things go out of like if things come up that were not expected whether it be a bill whether it be a life event whether it be something else I have really bad anxiety I get very stressed very easily like I can go from zero to a thousand stressed in like five minutes like that's how bad it is for me so yeah your head struggle with your body image even though you're beautiful well thank you so much um I do struggle my body image quite a lot I think I always will and some weeks I am happy with my body some weeks I'm not that's just honestly it's each individual person moving into Twitter now I'm gonna try to wrap this up because I don't want this to be super long because I feel like it will be long if I keep doing it assumes that I suffered from postpartum depression if this is too personal please ignore um it's not too personal and yes I'd really bet postpartum depression anxiety whatever you want to call it um I don't talk about it much because I you know I don't know I don't talk about a lot of personal things on here too much but postpartum depression was very real and very scary for me I say I really struggle with it for the first couple months when my son was born and I don't know what triggered it exactly I don't know if anyone knows what triggered it exactly I think it's a lot of things that's a lot of hormone levels it's a lot of just things in your life change from zero things in your life changed drastically in the blink of an eye when you have a child especially your first one I was never run babies a lot before I had my son never changed a diaper never did a lot of things and then suddenly I was a mother just like that and then also my husband he was already working a pretty hard job and then he was home for a little bit when I first had no which was great and then I say the postpartum depression really triggered after he went back to work knowing that but he had to work really long hours like extra hours and I was home alone a lot and I didn't have like a ton of friends coming by and have a ton of family members coming by I just felt very alone and it was very I don't know it was very sad like I just got so depressed like deeply depressed I've never been that depressed in my life like it was to the point where I wouldn't eat anything at all I lost a lot of weight I didn't look healthy I didn't have a desire to read I just I felt like a failure as a mother like I didn't know what I was doing there was no guide for me I felt alone that's not to say my husband helped me out so much he's an amazing father and he still is but just with the moms sense like I just didn't know what to do and I just I don't know what it is that made me have such bad postpartum depression but it was it was really scary for me honestly like I think my husband can attest that it was a very dark period in my life and I do not wish that to happen again I suffer through that still honestly if I love my son to pieces but there are some weeks where he is very hard to handle and I just find myself slipping back into that depression because that's just how it is sometimes then postpartum depression is a very real and a very valid thing if you ever have it or think you have it do not hesitate to tell other people I wish I did I wish I reached out for more help I think I could have gotten out of it a lot faster if I did and if you have it it's okay it is okay to have it's okay to have those feelings it's okay that I felt that way there's nothing wrong with it it's normal honestly I would say which is sad but I think a lot of women experience postpartum depression and needs to be talked about more so yes Ali I definitely picked it yeah over at chapter sex thinks that I would be a really caring friend and the type of always and the type to always ask how your friends are how your friends are doing even though you're having a hard time yes I have that friend I am the mom friend of the group I'm caring I hope they would agree Trina has a lot of assumptions about me number one that I'm a good cook thank you tuna I think I'm a good cook yeah I'm a pretty good cook I'll go on I'll go on record saying that my ideal vacation is to the beach yes you are correct I love the beach I would love to do a vacation there I've never broken a bone I have broken a bone I broke my nose when I was in seventh grade playing soft ball and never played it since I actually had a sad-ass surgery on it like I had a plastic surgery at 12 because it was so like miss shapen that they had to like straighten it out and stuff so yeah the nose is only what I've broken though and lastly I don't like pineapple on pizza I don't like pineapple in general so you're correct on all fronts there yeah two people have said that I never lose my cool and level-headed a calm I'm not I like if there's a situation was firing ice on the fire like I am that like I have a very very short temper like I'm very short tempered which is very not good death it takes a lot for you to be mad but when you go you go oh and then they use the emoji from anger from inside out how did you find an accurate chief of me yes when I get angry this is me you'll never get tired talking about Buffy and go my girls you are a thousand percent cleric boyfriend and I dust and clean my bookshelves I do assume that your favorite colors are yellow pink yellow yes pink I don't know um I think you prefer cats over dogs I like dogs are attached I was sorry to break your bubble the last one is to have snacks handy while you're reading your books oh no no really I don't have a lot of snacks around handy mainly because if I start snacking my son will take my snack away from me like you know you hear about those moms that like have to hide like in the corner eating something and hoping their kid will hear because when a kid hears any sort of wrapper or anything open they're like what you got yeah that's it's accurate a thousand percent accurate so yeah I can't eat while reading I can't snack already because my son would take all of my snacks he doesn't like to share snacks but
