Ren was prescribed a number of anti-psychotic drugs that he most likely didn't need. He was originally diagnosed with depression and chronic fatigue syndrome when in fact he had misdiagnosed Lyme disease. It took eight years before he got any treatment for the condition.

@MissMeKate
@MissMeKate 7 месяцев назад
​@@teckreactions Yes, he knew about the Lyme Disease by this point, so it is more about his previous experience being on medication that wasn't right for him, and how empty it made him feel. Right before he released Hi Ren he republished a short health vlog from the days before he had his diagnosis. It is HARD to watch, he thought he was dying. But it is a good way to understand how his journey has unfolded since.

As someone who is taking antidepressants since 15 years old and now I’m 48 and still on them, experiencing probably 10 different ones, it’s very common that they can literally death in your emotions. Not just the Lows but also the highs until it you often can’t feel much at all, not joy and not tears. I also take heavy anxiety medication‘s now. This song registers with me in a profound way. I truly believe Ren is talking about what these medication‘s (sertraline) make you feel. Being in a chalk outline= walking dead. Like you’re not even really a person anymore. But you do get too scared to stop them because you know that without them you’re gonna drop back again, but you long to feel some thing again. But the fear and anxiety return without them because you know one day at any time the other shoe will drop again. It is deep and heartbreaking. And is so relevant today is such a large percentage of people and young people are on this medications. I found this song and it’s lyrics to be absolutely profound. Thank you for doing this reaction. I always find them heartfelt and so interesting with your ability to hone in on the different cords and keys that evoke different emotions that he’s using. Please check out how to be me live with chinchilla. You can find the rap side of run by starting with hunger. Dominoes is a profound little song commenting on the state of society. A fun side Would be power and a great display of all of us talent would be the lyric video of Lost All Faith. And of course the Money Hame Trilogy. Amazing to see change from 1st with no budget in abandoned place, to 3rd with much more money and staff to create a cinematic masterpiece! Imagine Ren directing a show of movie with a real budget!!!! Wow, he could do anything.

Ren was prescribed all kinds of psych meds before he was correctly diagnosed, and I think he still takes 1 med to help manage his PTSD. He has a song Diazepam (generic for Valium) that speaks of his experience with it. He spoke in an interview that the withdrawal from it was tough. He has recently stopped engaging pot, which is legal in Canada, when he saw himself depending on it too much to go to sleep. He's pretty wise.

The opening of this song guts me. It took everything he had - he had to crawl - just to get into bed. But instead of finding rest, he's wishing for a new life. A new body, a new mind - to be someone else. For me, this song perfectly explains what it's like to have been in treatment for serious mental illness, especially Major Depressive Disorder. You comply, you go to therapy, you take the drugs. You've disconnected from the feelings of actively wanting to self-harm, but the trade-off is disconnecting from all your other emotions too. You feel numb and hollow. It feels like you're walking around in a bubble, and it feels like you're erasing yourself. Calling it a chalk outline is perfectly apt. All of Ren's posted collaborations are stellar, but I love his two with Eden Nash. They're both upbeat and have a somewhat island-y feel, especially "Humble." My favorite is "Ocean," which is a genre-bender for sure. But seriously, if you see Ren with anyone, it's awesome: Sam Tompkins, The Big Push, Chinchilla, Eden Nash, etc.

For me, the phrase "walk around in a floating chalk outline" is the effect that anti-depressants and anxiety meds have on you. I take anti-depressants every day and it just kind of numbs you down. I'm not depressed, but do suffer from anxiety which is what the anti-depressants help with. But I can understand the feeling of physically you're there, but you kind of lose a bit of who you are from the meds. almost like being dead inside, hence the chalk outlines like you would see at a crime scene. The main line in "How to be Me" describes it perfectly as well, but I won't spoil anything for you

The best musical “siblings”. Ren has called her his sister from another mister and a female version of himself due to their similar approach to music. For me I think it shows in the fact that they both have that something special that draws you in and demands attention. To see it fully for Chinchilla, check out her live version of Fingers. This song always reminds that one of the (many) things that makes Ren so great is his ability to know exactly when to be complex, keep it simple, or even use silence to get his message across. He isn’t flexing his guitar skills in this, just playing exactly what is needed with that beautiful guitar tone. And my favourite line in this is so simple, totally devoid of all the clever metaphors that he is so good at using, but it hits soooo hard: “I’m scared of being okay cause all things change”. I think anyone who has been through any struggles can relate to that feeling of not trusting that anything good will last. You can’t just enjoy it because you’re busy worrying about how long it will last and the feeling that will come when it’s gone. And then good days just make the darkness feel so much worse because you remember the light that’s gone… Ren is so special. He keeps being so relatable that it reminds us that we’re not alone. And we will always make room for more RENegades down the Ren rabbit hole cause we all need his light in the darkness 🐰🕳️ If you want more emotional singing from Ren, please check out one of my personal favourites: Crutch feat. Bibi. It’s an older song from before he was finally correctly diagnosed with Lyme disease and was written after a breakdown following multiple emergency trips to the hospital. It is heart wrenching and beautiful.

@@teckreactions the beauty of Ren is he deliberately leaves parts of his vision to individual interpretation.

Doesn't mean I'm right tho....Kenny Rogers said "every hands is a winner and every hand is a loser" depending on the cards you keep or throw away.

Great reaction! To me, this song is about the struggles of mental health problems and the side effects of medication. How mood stabilizers can leave you feeling hollow and disconnected. And how they can be a crutch you need, but are afraid to let go of. I think it can easily be generalized to self medication with alcohol, drugs, or even habits that may help you cope in the short term but become detrimental in the long term. Thank you for this!

@johnekare8376 7 месяцев назад
@@Libbydoh I sorry to hear that, but glad that you are going in the right direction. I don't know how Ren intended this to be perceived but my comment was not intended as a blanket critique of psychotropic medications. My personal belief is that they are a tool, and for the right job they can absolutely be a net positive on the road to recovery. The whole topic is too complicated and nuanced to make any generalized statements about. But my feeling about the song is that he shines a spotlight on the struggles that road to recovery entails. Side effects can be one thing; an underfunded and over burdened medical system that tries the 'easy fix' of medicating away the problem as their first approach another; the very understandable struggle of coping with uncertainty and not feeling like yourself while you are transitioning from who you were to who you can be, can also be a part of it. Doubt an fear that any perceivable improvements may only be temporary and lead to false hope. I think they do a good job at conveying the experience without necessarily vilifying the medication. Chinchillas line '...there's a pill for everything' reminds me of the saying 'if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail'.

Commenting while watching. First things first - hit like - before I even watch the video haha. 1) Are you a Renegade? If you are a fan of Ren, and a person who helps other people - you are a Renegade, knowledge of Ren's backstory is not necessary to be a Renegade, you will learn as you go through his catalogue, just like we all did. Floating Chalk Outline is we believe (certainly those of us who suffer) the feeling of being emotionally numb when on various anti depression / anxiety medication, you are alive and on the outside at least you look like you, but inside you don't feel you, at all. Chinchilla's line hammers that home with "don't cry, there's a pill for everything. Take this one, wash it down. The feeling goes and you draw a chalk outline". As for a new habit just for a while, it could be drugs, but it could really be anything - basically something new to distract yourself for a short while, to make you feel like it's worth getting up in the morning. But, they never last long, because the distraction wears off. (Though I am pleased to say, watching people reacting to Ren - has lasted more than the usual 3 months that my habits last for). For what it's worth if you manage to catch him - Ren is supposed to be live on Twitch (RenMakesTwitch) today to spend a little bit of his Birthday with us. Ren is a beautiful soul, if you manage to go back and watch Freckled Angels Live - which he performed just 8 months after Joe took his life, you'll see that Ren hasn't changed - he has always been so genuine.

I think this was actually released at the end of 2021. Ren signed a contract with Sony in 2010 as part of the band Trick The Fox, he was already ill by then and by 2021 he had to stop recording for the album, and his contract expired. He was pretty much out of action for the next 5 or 6 years other than short busking sessions when he felt able. In 2016 he released the Album Freckled Angels, about half of which were songs recoded for Trick The Fox. That was to fund his search for a diagnosis and treatment, I think it was around then that he got the diagnosis in Belgium, and started his recovery. He seems then to have built his busking career with The Big Push and got management, this piece is from that period. Though he was doing great work he didn't agree with with the constraints on what he was doing, he wanted to do a Rap Album. He broke with them and Hi Ren and the Sick Boi UK number 1 Album followed.

​@@teckreactions Chinchilla was with the same management and label which she broke from in 2022. She has said they she channeled all her rage from that experience into her music, particularly Little Girl Gone which she released independently and went viral with in April 2023. It was on the strength of this hit that she leveraged signing with UMG’s Island Records under her own Chinchilla Ltd imprint. I’m enjoying your reactions very much, thanks 😊

In my understanding, this song is about the effects of antidepressants/anti-anxiety medications, and the struggles that come with them. Thankfully I don't speak from my own experience, but apparently, at least in lots of cases, those meds don't really make you feel better, but rather feel numb to everything, so you don't feel depressed or anxious, but also don't feel much of anything else, to the point that you're a walking outline of yourself. So on days when you're "feeling ok", you may struggle whether or not to take them, as things can change and you may not be ok later, so you end up taking them just in case.. and becoming an outline... Also see his song/video Diazepam, on a similar theme.

I think you’ll really enjoy REN’s song, Genesis, both musically and lyrically, but since you’re a drummer, I think you need to hear him actually rap; he likens singing to instruments, and rapping to rhythm, drums.

PS: he self produces, and directs his own videos, makes all his own beats, defies genre, categorization, and is quite extraordinary on both guitar and piano.

Chinchilla is an extremely strong woman, with a bit of self awareness that is visible if you are aware enough. She is wild and coarse in her expression within her own music, but if my 9 year old daughter ever chose her as a model, I would support it 100%. Chinchilla won't allow herself to be objectified and will fight off anyone trying to control her or take advantage of her. She is authentic and unique. She's a beautiful human being. Did I mention Chinchilla's Fingers, Live for Hunger TV. Did I mention how amazing that is? 🎉🎉🎉

Ahhh….man. Love this song. I think most of the drug references in this song are about the many, many, many, different anti-depressants and mood stabilizers he was on when he was misdiagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome and depression. Chinchilla even says “setraline” which I know of as being used to treat ADHD. I know he has done recreational drugs in the past. It seems like mostly marijuana. I know he was on benzodiazepines for awhile, but I think they were prescribed. In the song “power” he mentions snorting something when he was 16. It doesn’t come across as being ashamed of it…it’s more like, “this is a dumb thing I did.” I don’t have a a suggestion for the next song. He doesn’t have one that I don’t like. However…I decided to make drummer jokes a running theme. 😁 So, how does a drummer tell a knock knock joke? He knocks too early and comes in late. Cheers!

Chinchilla has severe stage fright so she dons her nails and wears an outfit that she designed to create a persona for herself. The song Cut You Off is excellent hip hop. The song 1:5 is where she goes Adele. I love Chinchilla and she's just coming out with more and more excellent songs.

This song is a very good measuring stick to see the quality of the reactor. If they immediately go to chinchillas nails first and say so nonsense about them then you can just click off the video unless you're looking for some base level immature "comedic" reactions. If you're into that kind of thing I implore you watch this reaction till the end
