When I heard Matt singing about feeling 'empty' even though he had 'everything', my immediate thought was, "He needs Jesus!" Because that's the truth! In this life, you can have everything you ever dreamed of but it WILL be empty if you aren't fulfilled first and foremost by Jesus. Faith in Jesus Christ is eternal. Things on Earth are temporary. The raw fact is, kids, a wife, a job, a house, etc. IS NOT ENOUGH and never will be. There will always be a piece of someone that is missing if they aren't following God. He's the one who gives us our identity and our strength even when our thoughts are pulling us apart inside. I'm surprised that nobody else brought this up. From a Christian worldview, it's my first thought.

Like snoring and i show him the reel we laugh. Like pictures of our dates, our time with each other. I just can’t see the point. He is MY husband no one elses so why should i post him ya know. Especially if he doesnt like social media. And i dislike when people air out their dirty laundry on social media. Its like a cry for attention. Instead of being grown adults they air it out. I just dont see the appeal. Sorry for the tangent but you brought up a really good point. :)

This is 100% depression. One thing that is not talked enough about is how depression negatively affects your judgement/decision making skills. I know from experience during an episode I shared far more with friends/aquaintences than I normally would/do. People sometimes overshare when they are depressed, because their mind is literally out of loop and not operating at baseline. They are grasping at straws. Anything. Everything, trying to stay afloat. Oversharing is sometimes a desperate (unconscious) cry for help that they don't know how to otherwise express.

As long as I'm concerned, the only thing they're doing wrong is oversharing and putting their family online without really considering or being prepared for the consequences of allowing their family to be vulnerable to the internet and all the hateful people online. Edit to add: Yes, they are both immature. So much of what they post and do is extremely unwise. My parents have one of the healthiest marriages I know, and that is because (not inspite of) all the lessons they learned from their errors over the years. Errors which they used to grow together. Difference? IT'S NOT ALL POSTED ONLINE FOR MILLIONS TO VIEW FOR ALL ETERNITY.

@jenro643
@jenro643 3 месяца назад
I took the song as a way of him being able to share with his wife that he is feeling depressed, while also expressing that his depression has nothing to do with their relationship or the kids. He even says has EVERYTHING he has ever wanted and knows that should be enough, but the brain chemistry isn't matching. Very similar thing in mothers with postpartum. They have a beautiful new baby, yet they still feel off. It's distressing and guilt inducing when you don't feel you have an excuse to be depressed, but you don't necessarily need one. Not all depression is situational, some is just purely chemical.

This makes me so happy that 1.) I had a c-section and 2.), my husband and I have no social media presence. As to his second song you mentioned, I think it's perfectly OK to not feel OK, even if you have everything that you want. I have everything that I ever wanted. The man of my dreams, the daughter I always wanted, I get to stay home with her, etc. etc. Sometimes I still feel down because of my mental health issues. I am an abuse survivor and have some bad days. That's normal. I have to remind myself that life is still good. My husband, while I know loves me more than life, also has down days. That is normal! We are not all perfect 100% of the time.
@nathnath162
@nathnath162 3 месяца назад
I have something to add to the conversation that has not been mentioned yet. When you are in a long term relationship you start to understand what your partner means behind the words he uses. It's a natural mechanism. After a while of being understood by your partner you start focusing more on the point you want to make and less on the way you are expressing it. So probably he is using words that seem rough from the eyes of the general public, but she knows exactly what he means, this is why she doesn't get upset but the public is raging. None of us would speak to strangers in the same way we speak to our close ones, because it would sound impolite. So just let these two be and if she is happy everything is good.

Exactly. These same people, Brett probably included, would critique that for centuries men have been expected to bottle things up which has led to high suicide rates and many other issues. But when a man actually expresses his depression, he gets criticized. And funnily enough most of those criticizing are women. And yet they say men are the problem! How he described it is 100% how depression works. You can have the perfect life with everything you want and need, but because depression is an illness, you still feel empty and unfulfilled. Just like how the happiest people are often the ones most suicidal and depressed. But don't worry, its men who are forcing other men to keep things bottled up.

I don’t think it’s being looked at as a red flag, if it is I don’t think it should be either. The point I’m seeing is that it seems to be a subtle way of him saying he’s struggling or maybe a cry for help to her which is better than bottling it.. but I don’t think social media is the place to be exploring this in their marriage and his own mental health. The nasty comments and conclusions are proof it’s just not the place to be sharing this struggle. I think the better approach would be to deal with this in private and through therapy and other resources outside of the public and when things get better and more stable, be open about it after. Not in the midst of it all. Social media can be very overwhelming and toxic in general and I really don’t believe this is a healthy outlet during a battle of depression and uncertainty.

If you watched th for a while you'll see why ppl don't like him in particular. I've followed them before they had their first child and when they had the baby you can start to see how a lot of things change in the family. She's under a lot of pressure to be online which she has said she doesn't want to be. Its his thing not hers. It also seems like she's under a lot of pressure for him to stay very fit. You the point she did a very intense race a couple weeks after a c section that she her self said was extremely hard on her. He's always going on about her looks and has said he misses how she was before they had kids saying s*x is just ok after her having 2 kids and many other incredibly insensitive things he had said about her. On top of that joking how he's single for a day/week when he was away recording a song. That was the breaking point for a lot of the ppl who still tolerated him. She seems like she just wants a quiet life and enjoy being a mom while he keeps holding on the the past and putting the pressure on her to play thus odd role of her teen self.

@Monatguest You know, women love to say they want this or that. But they sure do love the hot boys and the bad boys. And this guy is a combination of both. Somehow the woman's always able to come out. Looking innocent while making the stupidest decisions ever. the most self destructive decisions But I'm just making this comment to say. They will never learn if you don't hold a woman accountable also. The guy is not going to change because he keeps getting the women. He's not even lying to them like his red flat are flashing. But if people don't hold the woman accountable for her choices , she will just go after the next hot boy because she was told she did no wrong. Basically neither of these two are good people. The only way she can become a good person is if she is made to learn her lesson and is not done by placating her.

I totally agree, when I heard the song it actually resonated with me quite a bit and even the line “it’s still not enough”. I’ll just say right off the bat, I’m a Christian so when I really break down these emotions/feelings of something not being enough it’s because it’s really not. I’m trying to fill a void that can only be filled by something (or someone, as I believe) much larger than anything life on this earth has to offer. All I wanted in life was to be a wife and mom. And I am both of those things! And yes, it makes me so happy. But there are days when the enemy attacks and plants seeds of doubt or I have a bad day and I ask “I’m living my dream, why isn’t that enough?” But often it’s because I’m trying to get spiritual satisfaction from earthly things, not from my Savior. I’m often not actively pursuing Him when I feel this way… even though I believe He’s there, I know He’s there, often times it’s my heart that isn’t in the right place. And that’s very real. I don’t know who these people are, I’ve seen a video or two with them. I don’t think they (or anyone for that matter) should share half as much of their life as they are sharing… but I truly hope that he gets the help that he needs, and my prayer would be that he and his wife find the hope that can only be found in Christ! Anyway, I’m sure there will be some who read this conmen and think I’m crazy and that’s okay. But I just had to say that his feelings are real as far as having everything you’ve ever wanted but not understanding why it doesnt feel like it's enough. And my belief is that as long as we put all our stock into our life here on earth and achieving all our dreams but dont invest in a relationship with Jesus, then we will never find true satisfaction.

It is so hard to define and wrap your mind around and deal with… women please please especially wives - if your man is willing and able to say these things to you, don’t jump on him right away, listen! Men are not good at dealing with this and need so much support to get through this.

The line “is still not enough” taken with emotional intelligence, and in the correct context, is really powerful, because he is reaching other men who feel like no matter what they do they cannot do enough or be enough and this is who he’s talking to.

Amen. The suggestion I’m seeing elsewhere that he change the lyric to “him” is not a good one because depression isn’t just about how you feel about yourself, it’s about how you feel about your circumstances sometimes too. He acknowledges that there is no reason to feel this way, so the statement that follows is actually illogical, which makes it a pretty good reflection of some people’s experience with depression. The song is not about his family and people seem to miss that. People forget that 1-10 men struggle with postpartum depression. Not saying that’s what he has but it is something to keep in mind.

That being said, some of the things have put online recently have made me cringe a bit. However, I have to give them grace because who knows how people would judge my family if it was all on display. All that to say, I think everyone needs to be more aware of what they’re sharing. Unfortunately, sharing everything (good or bad) is how Matt and Abby make a living. All press is good press!

So this isn't going to work, I highly recommend that men get into counselling to figure these issues out and not go to your spouce about these things apart from talking about it on a surface level. But this isn't a one size fits all solution, some wifes want to hear it all and are okay with it while some believe that you are not doing what you are supposed to do and they will hear but they hear with resentment. So it is a tight rope, which is why finding a counsellor is important and going to then occasionally to just talk about these issues is important.

I think a lot of people underestimate the emotional toll postpartum and having very young children take on a marriage. My husband and I also got married very young and had our oldest children less than a year apart. It’s a lot. All the hormones, all the changes in routine, the lack of sleep, and not knowing how exactly to support each other, my husband also worked nights, so I was the sole caregiver for the kids 24/7. I struggled with postpartum depression, and my husband felt like he was missing out on so much because he only saw us for an hour or so a day. I feel like they are just struggling a bit to find balance in this new season, like all new parents. They just have the added pressure of needing content to provide for their kids so we’re watching them find their way in real time, but instead of offering them grace in this really challenging season, people are tearing them down.

We are living in times when "attention grabbing" and victim mentality is desirable. Check how many African women experience postpartum. Western women have better lives and comfort yet childbirth is more traumatic for them. Doesn't make sense. Btw some african women still use nappies instead of diapers.

@@obajuluwaoluwatomisin3883 I would say it’s because we have such comparatively easy lives that more women are experiencing it. Coupled with the reality that we don’t really have the tight knit community and support systems needed to make sure we’re okay. Motherhood is lonely without that immediate access to others who love you and want to help you succeed. In many third world cultures older women in the community essentially take over for a period of time so the new mother can just focus on recovering from birth and taking care of the new baby. Chinese confinement is a good example of this. This is not the case for most women in American society. The immediate access to support and the expectation of just going on with daily life immediately after birth is a dangerous combination.

My husband is my best friend and he is so good to me but sometimes it doesn't feel like enough. So I get it. He feels that way too sometimes. This doesn't mean I am not enough for him or he is not enough for me. Sometimes you can still be depressed with the "perfect" life

As a women myself I’ve noticed this major trend on social media where it’s a different response when men or women share their mental health struggles. (Ex: almost every single female influencer that’s a mom or a wife will post about their mental health struggles & the comments are very nice, compassionate, supportive etc.. (how it should be) but when men post the same videos the comments are just full of women & men making fun of them. I saw several videos on tik tok a while ago, 1 girl was sharing how her husband unalived himself & everyone was extremely kind & respectful in the comments, I saw a video yesterday of a guy sharing how his wife unalived himself & the comments weee like “what did u do to her?” “Obviously you cheated, or u hurt her in some way” some comments were legit saying “u should ☠️ urself” (cruel af comments mostly from other women but also men, making fun of this dude, & some comments saying just “man up & move on” idk it’s just sad af.. I remember friends being like “idk why men don’t open up about their mental health issues” & legit just from what I’ve seen on social media made me start to understand why men don’t. it’s just sad the lack of empathy

Well, to be fair, this man, by his own admission, believes in traditional gender roles. Why would he expect his feelings to be treated with the same understanding and compassion as women's feelings get? Something doesn't add up. You want to "be the man"? Then get treated like a man. You can't claim wanting to follow strict gender roles when it's convenient, and then ask for more equality of treatment on other matters.

@@Martyna456 I agree with you. But people who truly believe in strict traditional gender roles don't think that being a man or a woman shouldn't matter. To them, men are men, and women are women. They can't possibly be treated the same way, because they are not the same. Either you agree with that lifestyle, or you don't. If you agree with it, though, you can't come crying when people treat you harshly and expect you to endure silently because you are a man, or suffocate you by dictating your life and expecting you to submit because you are a woman. Those are what traditional gender roles are about.

I feel like the internet's reaction to his song about "everything not being enough" points to a larger societal issue where people don't understand that all the milestones in life (graduation, career, marriage, kids) mean NOTHING when we are lacking a certain satisfaction spiritually. I don't know what their relationship with God looks like, but I've found personally that even when my whole life is perfect on the outside, when I am lacking spiritual connection and soulfulness, all the "perfectness" actually makes you feel worse since everyone is telling you that you should just be happy... It's sad that so many people will feel lost throughout their life from this lack of understanding.

My husband feels this way, so I get it. It’s fun to hear but that feeling is there to remind us we need something more than the world can offer. More like a Someone. I was diagnosed with depression/anxiety at the age of 9 and was contemplating ending my life at 15. Praise the Lord I was given rides to a weekly Bible study where I learned about Jesus Christ. Nine months after attendance I cried out to Him in tears before bed, “I hear of Your love and I hear of Your promises, but I want to experience it for myself!” When I was waking up the next day I heard the audible voice of God (although I didn’t put that together at the time) say, “I will never leave you.” I was instantly healed of my deep sadness and depression ever since!

I've seen a good amount of their content in the last year or so and I've got the impression they're a good young couple, emphasis on the young, figuring their marriage and parenting out. And the thing is, that's totally normal and they should be allowed to do that, but they're doing it in front of a crowd. So missteps that they're inevitably gonna make and grow from are magnified to the masses and blown out of proportion. As much as the internet loves getting involved and knowing all the gossip, we'd all do ourselves a favor by sharing less than we think we should

I think it's also helpful to remember that if you are creating content, you should be doing it for the people 5-10 years behind you ... their message is PERFECT for young people who think having a marriage and family is old school ... it's NOT great content for people like me who have been married almost a decade, am pregnant with my 5th child, and have been juggling marriage, family and business for a while ... it tends to make me cringe, because I'm watching as someone who is through those years and I know that they still have a lot to learn and juggle and balance ... doesn't take away their value or what they bring to the table! But it's hard to be in an influencer position when you are still in the "wisdom gathering" mode of life ... 🤷🏼‍♀. They still need all of the love, wisdom, and wise people surrounding them as possible - they are only at the beginning of their life!

I can feel for him deeply. I got married a little over a year ago. I am happier than I’ve ever been, but that does not fix everything. I am still deeply depressed. On the outside, I am getting my masters and I am happily married. On the inside, I am hurting for reasons I cannot explain. Of course I’ve discussed this with my husband and he knows that I am not happy, but he also knows it’s not because of him. I can understand why people are questioning his phrasing, but you can want more out of life and still love your family. There can be something missing even if you are in a loving relationship with children.

Matt is feeling that HE is not enough for his own satisfaction. It's not Abby or the boys, it's his own mental state that is causing him to feel the lack of joy and success he KNOWS that he should be feeling with his life. He's trying to find where his joy for his self has gone. That's nothing but only he can find and relight.

They are middle school sweethearts so their marriage is a lot more mature than the internet is used to. He was being honest with her in his music. They are lyrics that are written in the moment not how he feels all the time. Depression kills men a lot more than women and I am proud of him for making this song💛

On top of this he is trying to dig deep to write music now which is surely making it worse. It doesn’t even have to mean he is a selfish person, he is just engaging in a life that makes him less grateful and more depressed that he could otherwise be.

I've learned that we're living in a society where we must act like we're brands. Opening up about mental health issues is not treated in the same light as opening up about cancer. If you are struggling with your mental health, I suggest that you talk to a therapist instead of opening up to random people (and this might include your family and close friends). The stigma is so real, unfortunately, and it cuts so deep when you're told to stop oversharing in moments of vulnerability. I regret sharing about the darkest parts of my life and I wouldn't recommend anybody to put their dignity on the line in that manner. Well for me, I couldn't bare the stares to a point where I stopped going to church altogether. All the best✨
