Myers Is The Mental Health Advocate We All Need

Myers lives in Omaha, Nebraska with her husband Jonas and their 1-year-old son August. While her humorous attitude and animated storytelling is a huge pull to her social media pages, her mental health messages are also very well received. Myers recently told PEOPLE, "It's just something that is very hard to talk about, and it shouldn't be. It should be as easy as talking about what you had for lunch."

The content creator wakes up before the sun to film her TikTok videos, and in many, talks honestly about ADHD, depression and anxiety. "I love that I can teach people that you can show up as yourself - exactly as yourself - and people can love you for it. That makes me really happy because I spent a lot of my life just masking the things that I was dealing with, thinking that it took me out of the running of being a successful human being," she explained. "And learning that in this season I am successful because I am transparent with all of it, has been very cool for me. The fact that I can share that with other people is pretty powerful."

In another recent TikTok video, Myers answered the question, "What is the goal" of making TikToks. "I'm making content that 10-year-old Elyse desperately needed when she was shaping her whole world view and whole sense of self with the internet."
