This video will make lazy people more lazy!
Sometimes it's about "Dolce far niente" 🙂
Yes, parasites. Do as the media tells you, use this lockdown to stay fat, useless, and entirely dependent on the state. Learn nothing, question nothing, and be nothing. Watch porn instead of finding love, eat imported, processed garbage instead of supporting local food industries and becoming healthy. If you question this, you are 'regressive', you are racist, and therefore your opinion does not matter.
The only people spreading TOXIC MESSAGES is the BBC !
Bet she’s on only fans 10 hours a day
Hahahha get in the sea!

watch this video if you are someone confused during COVID 19!
With so much time to think, I am rethinking everything that has happened in the past yr including my relationship and breakup with a guy and somehow I always end up blaming myself for everything wrong that has happened between us and with my friends. This is getting worse every single day and my self esteem is falling. I have no one to reach out to. Is it really all my fault? Am I really such a terrible person? Is there any frigging way to change myself??? I just can't take it anymore
I'm sorry, but how can you argue that pushing for self-improvement is 'toxic'? Taking full advantage of the time we've been given is a sensible thing to do. I've been doing it and feel fantastic for finally tackling things I never thought I'd have time to fit in. There's no void left, no guilty feeling like I should have done more. I can say with certainty that I'd have those feelings if I did nothing, like you seem to be suggesting. At what point are you 'enough as you are today'? Does that start at 12 years old? 18? 38? Embrace your 'toxic' thoughts of wanting to better yoursef, whenever you get the chance.
get away from social media, it spreads only bad vibes, focus on your purpose, goal and be productive
I also blame all the articles and posts talking about what Elon Musk or Gary Vee get done in a day. We need to stop comparing ourselves to these people. Our life’s are vastly different. For one, they probably don’t have to do dishes or fold their household’s laundry.
What a fruitcake wackjob
My country went into lockdown at 90 cases and opened up schools, restaurants and basically everything at 1700 cases a day, my family has been infected and we're literally suffering, have exams after a few months and oh boy am I losing my shit. I literally have no motivation due to colleges being on and off constantly, quarantine fatigue and dealing with my own depression. I feel like I'm not doing enough but at the same time for what?! I cant believe we're in a full blown pandemic and the government is more worried about feuling economy and raising tourism instead of placing more ventilators in hospital and making graveyard space for dead bodies and corona patients.
I agree with everything she said. Why are there so many dislikes?
So true! The pressure is just too much….
Thank you for this wonderful video
I feel suicidal in this lockdown.
I literally can’t cope on my own, trying to homeschool my 2 children.
Not being able to go out. I’ve never felt so ill. I had postnatal depression when my youngest son was a baby. But this is even worse. There is so much pressure on us Mums. It’s ok if your an academic type of person but I’m not. I’m waking up with panic attacks every night, I can’t sleep, I can’t eat. I can’t take much more of this 😢
The thing is I agree somewhat however I feel that once you do take time for yourself even psychologists will say make sure to be the best version of you. Start now. Don't procrastinate etc. And other health professionals for example I see positing on tik tok nearly every day and more often when their followers go up. So in my opinion, that is the problem. We are told one thing by professionals but they seem to do the same thing they are telling us not to do. Anyone else agree or have a different view?
You work for the BBC automatic dislike, you’re part of the evil propaganda machine. If you didn’t do anything productive in lockdown, you haven’t helped yourself. These lockdowns are psychologically damaging, you have to exercise, read, work on any business or self improvement otherwise these draconian measures will destroy you. Facts
Procrastinating on uni work for way too long and starting to cry on a video about toxic productivity is the kinda bs I have to deal with… How can you be overly productive if your not productive at all? 🤦🏻♀️
A foolproof that the people who say that psychology is a waste of time don’t know what they’re talking about ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Every job interview the employee wants a candidate fast, that is multitask, it turns out that I can do only one thing at a time with quality 🤔, if we stop all the time, I believe we won't complete any task.
People in the comments don't get it. This video is for those who are trying to do a lot, but still feel unsatisfied and still feel that they don't deserve rest and can't enjoy life coz they aren't doing enough
I hate it's coming from a close family member it's not even the internet. I feel so tired and unsatisfied with my work and productivity. Not everything has to be about money and productivity. I had issues the last time I overdid it.
I'm suffering from toxic inactivity.
