We Did It, Frands! Thanks To A Tremendous Effort From Everyone, My YouTube Channel Now Has Over 100 Subscribers!

We did it, frands! Thanks to a tremendous effort from everyone, my YouTube channel now has over 100 subscribers! That’s a really big deal. Why is that?

Well…

As many of you know, I’ve had to restart my YouTube channel from scratch after it was completely erased. Over 700 videos and 1000+ subscribers were completely eradicated. It was heartbreaking for me. I was away from YouTube for a little over a year… I had to mourn the loss kinda like a death, and I needed time to heal.

You see, I was in an abusive relationship for several years, and when I finally had the courage/tenacity (and lots of support/assistance) to leave, my abuser locked me out of my own accounts and ultimately deleted everything to hurt me even more.

I didn’t want to say anything in case this person is still lurking around the internet (I feel safe that the worst is behind us), but in order to register a custom domain name on YouTube for your channel, you have to amass 100 subscribers first. Thanks to your help, I’ve met that goal and have my old channel’s URL back… OFFICIALLY!

youtube.com/kipicon

Now that it’s registered, no one will ever be able to take it from me again. I’ve made sure of that. And although it may seem like a small victory, to me it makes me feel ten stories high.

Having the bravery to leave a bad situation is difficult. Sometimes there will be consequences; consequences that seem much too hard to bear. I’m here to stand as someone who’s still dealing with those consequences over a year later: But with time and support from my friends and followers, things are really finally starting to heal.

Thanks for sticking with me, frands. I can’t do it alone. I hope we’ll all step forward together and continue to FOLLOW OUR DRAMS to an ever stronger, and truer, extent.

-Kip <3

Aww! You’re the best. This message actually hit me kinda deep. I’ve been feeling feels as of late and this might have turned the tide from bad feels to good ones!
