Northern TikToker shares reasons to stay alive, Inuit style – CKLB News

Annie Buscemi admits that “it’s the simple things in life” that keep her going.

Buscemi, 23, from Iqaluit, started making TikToks as a way to help herself through her anxiety.

Since losing her job back in September, Buscemi created a virtual diary, called Ullaakkut (meaning good morning) as a way to practice gratitude.

This was an opportunity for Buscemi to highlight the lack of mental health resources in Nunavut and share Inuit-specific reasons to stay alive.

“It has really changed my life, waking up every morning and starting off my day” making these videos, says Buscemi.
