Ren is such a genius; the music sounds just like how one feels when taking Diazepam - slowed down and floating. (Regarding the lyrics, the auto-generated captions are not accurate but Ren usually pins them in the video comments.)
Isn’t it amazing how consistently Ren can make songs about tragedy and depression sound so good. Musically, you feel great until you realize the lyrics. He truly is an amazing talent
Ren is absolutely phenomenal... Every day is a Ren day lately...no regrets whatsoever! Thanks Ren ! Hi Ren ....and don't forget Ren's birthday 29 March(1990) ...and a brand new song on his birthday. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yeah you get very numb from Valium, which when you're experiencing severe anxiety and such is a good thing but as he says it's a crutch you begin to be dependant on. It's ultimately quite destructive and addictive. "Self-destructive healing, it's one and the same" is the perfect way to describe it
I only wish there were cd's of all his music. I love the music of this song. Good on him and we know just how talented he is so another great one. Thank you Wolf for sharing.🙏🏼✌🏼🐺
Most were released on vinyl and cd, albeit very limited, it's hard to find and If you do find it they're really expensive unfortunately. Hopefully if he gets more and more popular we'll see some re-releases of them.
My mom got cancer. Valium is what they gave her to deal with the pain. She beat cancer but was never able to beat the addiction to Valium. The pharmaceutical/drug industry needs to be reigned in.
Dude, that bit in the video where he puts his hands on the train doors and looks out... it happens so quick but it sells that whole _"watching life passing you by"_ vibe, whilst he's stuck on the pharma train - anesthetised and just being swept along watching life going on outside. That was hard, man. Ren is killing this s***.
Ren is so good … pause… at making serious subjects/sad subjects musically very upbeat/happy sounding. Also that guitar solo … the tone of his guitars are always fire! 🔥🖤
If you take it occasionally Diazepam can make you feel great but it is highly addictive and very rapidly you can enter a world of hell from which it can be very difficult to get out and you no longer get the high but are still addicted.
71 yr old feels: DEAR REN: i feel your kindred spirit. i was on valium for years, and with a script, it worked great for me for years. until my dr pulled the plug and shipped me to 30 days in the hole (old speak for detox). there have been other drs and other happy lands (old speak for residential mental health establishments) over the last 71 years. my generation sang 'i hope i die before i get old'. So much for that. But God's will be done. so, here i am packing up again for a another pleasant vaca at happy land. and now that i learned there are "coping skills" (thank YOU, Ren) i'll get as much help as i can, after what i've learned about Late Diagnosis Autism Spectrum, when i get a shot at talking to smarter people than myself. but i don't trust the system. no more addictive drugs, where after 25+ of being on time for every monthly appt to a few diff drs around the states as i moved around, i was told to go to ER if i had any trouble jonesing (old speak for WTF where's my dealer/doctor!?!) pls PRAY PRAY PRAY for ren. i covet (dearly desire) all your prayers for ren. i don't know any more info about his current state than any one else, but i feel compelled to issue a call for worldwide prayer for ren's healing. i don't have a platform, and typing with one finger kicks up the pain a lot. prayer can change things, especially massive prayer. not always, but what else can we do to help? PLEASE PRAY FOR REN he's helping to shine the light in a lot of dark places. he's brought open honest dialog about mental health problems straight to youtube. and the world. and we really need that to heal. doctors and clinicians are watching him pullback the curtain on treatment REALITIES. pls spread prayer request. it couldn't hurt, but it could help our friend ren.
It's pronounced like Die ah zee pam it's the UK brand of Valium which I think you use in America. Same drug different brand name. It's used for many things but mainly with more moderate to severe mental health conditions. I have ptsd anxiety and depression and take a few drugs for that and the diazepam isn't one you tend to use all the time it's more to take when things are really bad...it gives a temporary relief or will calm down a panic attack as ren says (you turn that volume down on my demons and make it all so numb). I take it when I'm having a panic attack or such bad flashbacks during my sleep that I can't sleep. It is very very easy to over indulge because of the pure relief you feel and let's face facts...its a good feeling when you suffer so much for just a small amount of time to not suffer..
I was given this crap drug back in the 70's. I could have gotten as much as I wanted from my doctor. I stopped on my own. This song always brings back memories.
I took diazepam for quite a while it’s very addictive and once you’re on it it’s near impossible to get off it. But it makes you zombie like the walking dead it’s bloody awful but you only realise that after you’re addicted. My Doctor couldn’t wait to prescribe it to me, I bet he ain’t ever taken it himself tho so has no clue how it deadens your whole soul.
Isn't this one *something else?* It's like a Gorillaz cut but with a much more grounded lyrical flow. I DO love Gorillaz, but connect far more to Ren's musical journey. His struggle saturates everything he touches and flavours it with raw authenticity. And can we say something about the fact he produced a potential chart topper in his bedroom?
I watched another reactor who said he experimented this exact same thing on this med. I haven’t taken this but I have been on Prozac and took myself off which isn’t recommended. It’s shameful when side effects are worse than the original issue.
Diazapam is Valium under a different manufacturer label but the same drug used to treat anxiety and muscle spasm but lots take it recreationally and is quite addictive
