Depression - Haunted by Thought 

I'm really glad you're back. I really do appreciate your content. My thoughts have been kicking my butt this week. I lost one of my animals last week and I have been blaming myself and putting myself in a spiral all week, even though I truly know it wasn't my fault he passed. I keep telling myself I did what I could with the the resources I had available at the time. If I keep saying it my mind might finally agree. It's easy enough when you have mental health issues for one thought or thing to happen to take hold and that sends you into a spiral that can lead to other thoughts and getting hold of your emotions and getting yourself together on your own is tough. I wish more people understood that

I haven't even finished the video and u make me feel better already so thanks for showing ur scars cause i feel so embarrassed that poeple might see it

I so appreciate your channel. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart

Thank you for speaking about this topic. and for your advice. I appreciate it. I suffer from chronic depression since my childhood. I’m 38 now. Taken meds most of my life. It sometimes got worse, sometimes got slightly better but it was never gone. I’m on 4 different meds now and depression is still there but there are at least more okay days than before. I hate depression. Big time. It takes away so much of your life. It’s a daily struggle. And it gives you the feeling that it will never get better. That you will always feel this way. That there’s no way out. It’s hard to keep in mind that things might feel better again. Because it weighs so much. It’s like drowning in darkness. Depression did cost the life of 2 of my best friends. It’s a really dangerous and bad illness. And there’s absolutely nothing romantic about it. Thanks for taking this approach to this topic. It helps to hear how other people feel about depression and how they handle it. Glad you’re back on RU-vid and Instagram

Thank you so much Scott i really needed to hear about this,made my thinking much clear

Thank you Scott for another encouraging video. I really am trying to accept and adapt.

I have struggled with depression since I was a child it's taken me years to figure out how to manage it for it's working out and writing in my journal

all of us have missed you bro, nice to see you back! I was wondering, what do you think about taking up a "Harm Reduction" policy when it comes to self harm and when, if at all, it can be useful. I sometimes find myself so incredibly stuck in a situation in life and I can literally feel that my mental health is going down and down and i'm approaching either a panic disorder or depression and, i hate to say this, but honestly, SH is one of those things that helps keep my head out of the water until I get myself back to the shore so to speak... I hope i'm making sense!
