Asking a depressed person, "Why are you depressed? Life is beautiful" is like asking some one with asthma "Why do you have asthma? There is so much air to breath"
I would argue that a variation of the first question would be good though. The conversation has to start somewhere. I would agree can't start from a "just feel better!" standpoint, but to try and understand and show empathy to that person. I say this as a dad who has a son who struggles mightily with mental health, the best step was letting him know we knew and that we were trying to help and understand. He was resistant to that first conversation but we have seen improvements in his openness with us since then.
@Faith Get with God he would change your life promise me I had suicide thoughts and I wanted to kill myself really badly I cried every day I felt that I was so unworthy I faked a smile everyday telling my friends and family that I was doing perfectly even though I wasn't the reason I felt so unworthy it's because I felt that nobody loved me until I saw an add on youtube it changed my life it talked about how god can change you life so I decided to give it a try so I did I read my bible and pray to God to remove my depression and it worked and I now I'm happy Christian thanks to God. If you have any questions you can connect my Instagram its april91225.
Ik- it's weird. The other day when the Facebook shit happened my mom started explaining why social media made teens feel like they werent pretty enough and be depressed. But I don't even have social media (YT isnt considered social media to me) and I feel insecure. It's weird, and I'm prolly gtting to personal.
I hate when you tell them why you are depressed and they say "just don't worrie about it" or "your fine" or even "forget about you passed" like how am I supposed to forget what my step mom did to me when I was 3 up till I was 9 btw I'm 12 ya not very easy to forget
the worst is when they say "but you have a great life!" well, news flash, it doesn't matter how good my life is, besides they know nothing of the sort so why would they assume shit?
@@smellyal8trstinky I feel the same way, I have tried telling one of my friends who I considered a sister, but she said that I had not right to complain because I had more than her. Now I don't tell anyone around me anything besides, "I'm fine". I was placed on this pedestal and am now afraid that is I mess up in the smallest of ways or tell people the truth, that they will see me different and judge me wrong and say that "it is all in my head". It is at the point where I don't know if I want to get out of bed today, it is already almost 2 pm and I still don't have the will to even get out of bed... what's wrong with me?
Person That exists that’s fair though. If you haven’t been diagnosed, only you are saying your depressed. Depression is not something to be wanted or to be messed around with, it’s a genuine condition. You might not be faking it but it might be something else or a symptom or another problem 🤷♀️
i fully understand if it feels embarrasing to let someone know, but please do it. there's absolutely nothing to be ashamed off. letting someone you trust know how you feel is the most right thing in the world
I know that it's been 8 months, but I feel you, I relate to this, and if you need to vent, I will be here. As a random stranger in a youtube comment section
"I am the way, the truth, and the life." John 14:6 Jesus is our hope. He died for us in a cross so we can have eternal life because of His sacrifice. In Him we find perfect peace: "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." John 14:27 Jesus loves you, go to Him! It will be your best decision and i know that because it was mine. When I was anxious, I found peace on Him and in what He said. You can find too!♥️
Please don’t use the term “cancer person” it’s extremely rude and hurtful especially to me because I have a sibling with leukemia.just say someone with cancer jeez
I hate it when people call me dramatic because they don't know what I'm going through and they don't know how I feel about different things. Is it like that for you to?
this brought me to tears. it’s honestly heartbreaking how relatable this is, i hope everyone else going through this knows that you’re not alone, we can get through this ❤️
it's because it is.. believe it or not *SOMETIMES* people get sad because they look "ugly" which there not and they could get jealous of other people online "there prettier". Just like how Charli D'amelio got plastic surgery.. it's sad how people hate the way they look when there gorgeous. Dont be worried about what other people think because if you look around. Everyone's doing there own thing.
"You never know who" is so true. I am sure that some "happy" people around me may have depression. I'm depressed too. I don't want to open up about it not just because of being afraid of being criticised instead of being understood but also afraid of spreading negativity to people around me.
Omg same, my friends will just say "hi how are you" and then I would type "I want to die rn" but then delete it and type "I'm good thanks how are you" and send it, sometimes I get scared I might send the last one tho
𝓑𝓮𝓽𝓱 #Sub2TomGW I know how you feel, but sweetheart you’re not a burden. Your feelings matter, your well being matters, your health matters, your heart matters, your brain matters. Your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual pain matters. You as a human being matter! I don’t know what you’re going through or how you’re exactly feeling, or coping with it but please know that you are truly never alone. I’ve been suicidal, depressed, and anxiety driven my whole life...etc... I’ve been hospitalized twice for suicidal tendencies & self harm...etc... I’ve been self harming for 5/6 years, I recently relapsed after being clean for like a year I believe. I know what it feels like to think that no one cares, that you’re only worthless, ugly, fat, not good enough...etc... maybe you think all your worth is nothing but negativity. I know what it feels like to just be completely alone, broken, empty, numb, discontent. Like you’re drowning, trapped and can’t be saved no matter how hard you try! I know what it’s like to not know what exactly you want, you just want to feel alive! & be happy but it’s like the universe has everything against you and you’re being punished. You question what you’ve possibly done to deserve so much hurt but never get an answer for it...maybe you make your own? They’re definitely not true, but you believe so. You want to give up, feel there’s no point. One minute all you want is to be alone and drown everyone out, you may not be fond of people, want lots of friends or company around that much, but the next minute all you want is someone to hold you, hug you, and show they care & acknowledge you’re suffering. Many people love you, but you likely don’t feel that way. All you feel is stuck, paranoid, and possibly overthink constantly. You beat yourself for everything, even small things. I suffer from nightmares, PTSD, OCD thoughts, Bipolar...etc... & so much more like Body Dysmorphia and ADHD. I’ve been through a lot in only 18y of my life. I’ve seen a lot & been exposed to a lot at such a young age. I know what it’s like to feel or be misunderstood all the time, or that no one will truly listen or care even if they say otherwise. To feel like suicide is the only option, only answer to end all the agonizing & exhausting life you no longer want to live, maybe never wanted to live in the first place? To feel nothing but hopeless, I’ve felt it! I’ve dealt with many fake friends, and people who never cared, still don’t care & never genuinely listened to any of my feelings or what I had to say. You’re worth more then what your mind wants you to believe, I’m sure you’re a very smart, bright girl. You’re beautiful. A real friend, and someone who truly cares about you & loves you won’t ever mind hearing about any of your problems, they will stay by your side to support & love you at all times. You’re never a burden, a mistake, a disappointment, let alone a waste of space. I don’t know if you have any dreams, or future careers you want to get into but you can do it! I promise you can. I know it’s not easy but anything is possible. You can’t just snap out of depression, it takes patience, effort but most importantly consistency & time. I myself haven’t got much better I am still struggling. Just know that no one is perfect, we all make mistakes, we’re all human! we all have are own flaws & imperfections. I know what it’s like to be insecure, to constantly compare yourself to others and feel everyone else is much better then you or that everyone is against you, just feels sorry for you, or maybe they don’t even feel sorry but are messing with you for the fuck of it. I’ve been bullied my whole life, and never had much friends. I’ve never been much of a social person growing up, I’m still not. I’m honestly a misanthrope. I’ve been bullied & outcasted by my own family, I don’t have a dad or much of a mom because she’s mentally ill...My family that has raised me has done nothing but put me through hell. No matter how much I tried to get help, it always backfired! I still haven’t been able to achieve the blessings I know I deserve in life, but I try and keep trying to give myself that one more day. If you ever need or want someone to talk to I am always here, no matter the time, day, when, how or why! I will always be down to listen this goes for any person that comes across this and reads it, even if it’s years or months down the line. I love you all and I care! ❤️❤️
My friend went through a dark phase , she was depressed most of the time, I wanted to help, by hugging, caring, making her smile or laugh, but unfortunately she doesn’t live in my village. I text her to ask how she’s feeling, I try calling her.. but still not helpful. The depressing thing is that she HATES herself. I try showing her how much we love her, but this won’t change the fact that YOU hate yourself. I think she feels better now, it’s not because of me, it’s because she’s strong, so to every girl who’s reading this, you are so strong, and with time, you can definitely defeat depression. I wish you all a happy and a safe life.💕
Yes, exactly! You feel either nothing or you feel horrible. But it is so hard to put it in words... And sometimes, you don't even know how you feel. I hope that I will overcome this time soon. Stay strong, whoever is reading this. ❤
The most pathetic feeling is when you get in a fight while trying to explain your feelings to your parents and they find a way to make you feel bad about it 😄🤣. And u r left regretting!!!! 😶
Please call 1-800-273-8255 to talk. mental illness is a well known mercury toxicity symptom, and some handle the toxicity better than others, but some get these kind of issues, autism, low immune system, ADHD, gut issues, allergies etc. I would encourage anyone struggling look into the Andrew Cutler Protocol. This is the ONLY safe protocol to this date, eating things like chlorella and cilantro has made people very very sick. Please read the child recovering stories by googling «cutler success stories child» and «cutler success stories adult» . But the best place to learn and get support is trough the Facebook group «Andy Cutler Chelation: Safe Mercury and Heavy Metal Detox». But whatever you do, never take/eat cilantro, chlorella, MSM, glutathione, and ALA/DMPS/DMSA that is not according to the Andrew Cutler Protocol, you can read some peoples horror stories by googling «Andy Cutler what not to do». Wish you all the best!
Parents say "everything is because of your phone" but seriously for few years my phone is thhe only one that has taught me and helped me get back up more than my parents ever did..
i wish there's still the future me that is truly healed and happy. proud of the current me. saying everything is going to be okay, you've handled it well. each breath is a struggle now.
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zLjtAzcYa0A.html omggg I know that feeling.... listen to this song🥺 it's too damn relatable.... It made me tear up 😭😭😭😭😭😭❤❤😭😭😭😭
I hate it when parents say "you're to young to be depressed" because it really doesn't matter what your age is invalidating someone's feelings isn't helping them it's just making it worse
my friend said she was fat everybody took pity on her, and i said yes you are fat. she just started screaming and everyone attaked me. what am i supposed to do, stand there?
I went through depression when I lost a loved one. During that time I questioned my existence, and couldn't understand the purpose of life. I felt useless and worthless. I couldn't focus because I was so confused that I couldn't comprehend the meaning of those words. It was so... hard. I got over it almost three months later and just imagining a person going through it all the time, I just want to let you know... You are NOT worthless. You are NOT useless. Your existence is very important and someone, someone you might not even know, loves you and if they lose you, they will feel the same way. Live your life to its fullest. You never know how long you got. LOVE YOU!
i remember watching this video like 5 years ago when i was just a child and didn't understand anything in it, now im a teenager in highschool and i feel like i relate to this video SO MUCH
“But you have a great life, you always seem so happy!” and "I know how you feel but don't worry you'll be fine" is never things to say to someone it could make life worse
Same, and they always tall about how in their generation this in their generation that, but no matter how many times i tell them its a new generation they say that theirs was the "BEST" one
What People hear.: I'm fine. I'm just tired. Leave me alone. I miss the old days. What We Really Mean: Help me. I wanna die. Please stay.. I miss the old me.
Hey Dear,Yes you reading this Comment.May be you gotta meet a new Sister here! You're not here by accident may be God is trying to help you 🥹💞 Let me share this to you,I live alone have no friends not close family at the town i live.Door closed, Window closed the whole day no calls this is all about my life besides classes. Also felt anxiety, depression, confusion, doubt and lonely. All these led me to thoughts of Suicide!!! but one day as usual I cried the whole day on bed, slept that night and JESUS came to and comforted me, He told me about my future and I've got a long way to go. I told Him "I'm sorry"for thinking to kill myself but you know what He said to me, He said with a Big Beautiful smile,"I love you" and touched my Face with his Holy Hands.He is Beautiful and Caring so much more than Trillion Words, nothing can express his Love for me!!!!🥹 I'm fine now, spending time with him and sharing my Faith with others who are on the path that I was. You not alone,He is Here all you got is to believe in him. I'd love to hear more from you and talk alot about Jesus ♥️.I have alot to tell ya and love to be Friends!!! You can text me on my Instagram page @Sheismadlyinlovewith_jesus /my Email @ruhamafikru4gmail.com. I'll be waiting eagerly with Joy and Jesus loves you more. Thank you & God loves you 🫂✨
When I cry it's mostly because I feel so bad for myself for being so pitiful, rude ,pathetic ,insensitive, immature and stuff and I can't find comfort in anything other than music and y'all but now the worst thing now is I can't even cry at all . And this video perfectly describes how I feel
“It’s a phase” “It’s your hormones” “Stop being dramatic” “Stop doing this for attention” Nobody cares until that person commits suicide. That’s when they wanna say “I never would’ve thought” “I can’t believe she/he did that”
When I was diagnosed with depression and OCD no one from my family didn't think that I was sick and this is very important to normalize being mentally ill and we have to raise awareness about mental illness and make the people not to stigmatized mental illness, PLEASE TELL THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU THAT IT IS OKAY NOT TO BE OKAY.
Yeah I know...... It's the hardest question.... And you know what is even worse? It's that I can't even fake a smile sometimes cause I feel too numb. Because everyone sees right through it
@@sarahemilywhite I can relate . I had faked smiles or laugh many times before . Now , I just feel like it's okay if someone thinks I'm giving an attitude . It's okay if they think I'm being rude .
the only person to ever wonder and ask if i'm okay is my little brother. he's so much more understanding and supportive and caring than my parents. i always get so emotional whenever he's concerned about me.
I’m 33 and this is how I feel all the time. I’ve tried anti-depressants and counseling as an adult but nothing has worked. Sometimes I wonder why bother? and now I know why. Because my parents never got me the treatment I needed as a kid. I think you are right about Gen z being the best generation of parents to deal with this because they went through it. Their kids aren’t teenagers yet. I’m a little older than that. Maybe that’s why no one my age understood. I think they understand now though. The pandemic has made us all depressed. But ironically, we are still all alone together. It’s really sad actually. Maybe some good can come from this. Maybe some understanding and love. It’s what the world needs right now.
Other person:are you ok? Me:ya I'm fine I'm just tired My head:tired of trying,tired of not fitting in and being perfect,tired of myself being ugly and dumb.
I am a Master in the Arts of hiding my emotions I am an Expert Tailor when weaving lies I am comfortable in the silences that unnerve others And I am an Artist when imagining places to hide Others call me beautiful when I wear my mask called a Smile But when I take it off im called sensitive and a weak child I know this is difficult for others to see But I know for a fact My Trauma Doesn’t Define Me
@@blackmamba9309 Thanks. I'm better now, but last year was really hard for me. If anyone need help, conversation or understanding, I've been through this so I'm here if you need me 😉
Guys don't say that you're "lonely" cuz as you can see here, in the comments section, THERE'S MORE THAN A THOUSAND PEOPLE WHO ARE WRITING AND TELLING US ABOUT THEIR STORIES OF DEPRESSION, infact there's more than it. so there's no need to be lonely, I'm and, we are here for you, we also know the pain you're suffering from💜
Lonely is to have no friends IRL and to try to get alone cause you wish someone cares, not to have people you don't know at all to say they care. It's nice, except its kinda fake.
I just realised... I’m the one to ask my friends “How are you?” but they never ask me. Edit: i deleted the vent cause i felt like i was seeking for attention and didnt want people to think im an attention seeker But again, thank you guys. ❤️
If I tell my parents I have depression they will tell "it is cause of your phone" I am 100% sure Edit: everyone is going through the same problem as me. It makes me so sad :( hope everything gets fine
@@aestheticyoongi7263 i use my phone way too much, i bet i use it more than you, but its not a problem because (some people, including me) use their devices to escape reality, at least thats what i do.
Felt like crap last year. I did a lot of stuff that I regret. It took someone who committed to make me realise that it wasn't something that I actually wanted to do. The effects on everyone in my community were so big. Everytime I feel like I'm not good enough or I'm ugly or something else, I remind myself that it isn't true. I am good enough. I am beautiful. You are good enough. You are beautiful.
To every person going through this, just know that you are an extraordinary person. It doesn’t matter what the world tells you or what the world thinks of you. It doesn’t matter what social media or a mirror says about you. You are STRONG. You are BEAUTIFUL. You are SPECIAL. You are UNIQUE. You are YOU, and that’s something to be proud of. Don’t let anybody tell you otherwise. God made you exactly the way He wanted you. If you don’t know who you’re meant to be, He did, and He does. He’ll help you, even when nobody else will. Sending love and prayers to everyone going through this. You CAN make it through this. You WILL make it through this. May God bless every single on of y’all.❤
My definition of “fine” depressed, alone, stressed, stupid, tired, hate myself, nobody loves me, nobody understands me, I’m useless, how would people feel if I were dead?
hey. it’ll get better i promise. there are people out there that love you and if you die, you are just passing ur pain onto someone else. you’re not alone 💟 i’m here to speak
Oh...do some research then,did you find this video relatable? If so then you may want to talk about it with someone you trust or seek help if you think it's something more than sadness
People just say you are faking it WHICH IS VERY ROOD and might make someone even more depressed so plz stop saying that they are faking bc you dont know what they will do to themselves to hide it beleive me I am a persob who hides my depression
After losing my mom I have been depressed for now almost a year. She was my everything and best friend who never neglected me. I don't know what to do with my life even though I promised to keep her legacy going
I watched this a few years back just to feel that I am not alone and that there are strangers who actually understand how it feels... I can't believe I'm back because my mind had been starting to go loud again lately.

10 subs without any vids ! True I have a friend and didn’t know she was depressed until we were going away with our orchestra for one week (I don’t know how to say it in english I’m from germany) and when we were going to eat she always had to take medicaments and then we ask why she had to take them and told us about it
Yep that's exactly that, when someone kills themselves people always say "why they didn't told us ??" But when someone actually does, they're "attention seeker" so that's why we're 70% without help
Melena Davis I had to go through that and when I finally told my friends they started laughing and saying sure 😭 I hope your ok 💔 I am here if you wanna talk
I couldn’t get chance in a University in first time. & I feel extremely depressed. I wanna try for a second time, but my parents and everyone acting so harsh and cold. I don’t think anyone is beside me anymore, and I am alone in this. My own tears at late night is probably my only friend.
Imagine going through teenage depression and at the same time, things like fake friends, parents that fight, a broken family etc makes you feel worse abt yourself.
me: **has depression** everyone else: jUsT tRy tO bE pOsiTiVE aNd hAve A gOoD aTtiTUdE me: OMG WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT :/ edit: *PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU ATTACK ME*i understand that it's hard to help people who are struggling with things like this, and i appreciate the effort. i do. 100%. it's just frustrating when you try to tell us something that's so obvious that we would have already done it if it actually worked. Like um if i'm depressed i can just suddenly decide to happy? Sorry but no that's not how it works. thank you for your time.
As a teen who has been through pretty severe depression (and might again :/), i just want to say, you're not alone. Depression sucks so much and just PLEASE don't feel guilty about wanting to end your life and not having a motivation to stay alive. Say you have the most amazing family but even that doesn't give any motivation, please.dont.feel.guilty! The video said only 30% of teens with depression are being treated for it. Become one of them. You will feel so proud if and when you overcome the depression moster. So i just want to say, you can do this ml
When someone yell at me I can't hold the pain that is coming from my eyes. We know parents don't understand us even when we try to explain, the pain we feel. They always compare us to their childhood and says we are phone zombies, gives us stupid, strict rules and makes us cry all the time until we have depression. We don't understand what to tell parents so they could understand how we feel.
I want my future self to hug my current self, telling me... everything is going to be ok Edit (1/1/22): thank you all so much for the nice comments💕It makes me feel so loved
everything's going to be okay, i promise :) just keep fighting and dont be scared to show emotions, we all have been there. you are not alone, i love you and stay strong
@@roddyroddy132 I mean, that girl looks perfect, but then I see myself and I see something very different, something horrible. My friend tells me the same, but then I say that "You look perfect, girl. I am the ugly one". And the same continues on and on again. I hope you understood it. Edit: I think I'm not the only one. Look everyone's replies, they agree with me.
“you never know who.” and that’s cause it’s embarrassing… to be different. to be broken. i know people say “i don’t want to be normal” but you do.. if you are being judged for not being normal.
