Hey! We’re in FL, my 6 year old son has speech dyspraxia and autism, he has a BIG fun personality and we would love to meet you and also get his story out! We want more people to understand how his mind works and to show others like him, that they are not alone.

Chris, just want to thank you for everything you do on this channel and bring everyone's stories to light and give them a voice.

I’m in Georgia, and I love the idea of being able to share my story and help others in whatever way I possibly can. I have Complex trauma and bipolar disorder, but my diagnosis is so new (last year), and I spent 22 years in abuse. I’m now 26, but I feel like I still need to learn and grow in my diagnosis 😢 happy 2024 and I really wish all of you the best of luck and I can’t wait to hear your stories. SBSK has been a place of learning and comfort for me ❤️

I’m from Brazil and i thank you both for this channel and this interviews. Thank you for still doing this amazing and human work. It was one of your vídeos that helped me to understand that i could be autistic. I did the tests and received my diagnostic. I am an autistic adult level 1 of suport. Thank you and may God bless you both ❤️

I sent my application in 3 years ago. Hopefully you still have it on file, but I'll gladly send in another. I'm the oldest survivor with a rare genetic disorder called Multiple Pterygium Syndrome. I'm in Georgia 30 minutes west of Atlanta

What a very unique, special, amazing, service you all provide.

I am in Alabama! I have an identical twin brother, in which I have Asperger Syndrome. We both have an irregular fascination with foreign nations, but I am not one-hundred percent how comfortable I am being interviewed, just because of social anxiety and all. I respect your drive in helping people show their voices and their visions to the world. Keep on doing amazing things.

Looking forward to the stories in 2024!

Looking forward to your stories in 2024! I know that I don't comment too often on your channel but I always enjoy your stories and totally look forward to any new content that you post!

If you’re ever in New England I’d love for you to meet my daughters Melody and Azula! They are both premies, nonverbal and unable to walk or feed themselves. We’ve yet to narrow down a diagnosis through years of genetic testing. They are an absolute joy to be around! We just got back from Give Kids the World in Florida for Melody’s wish :)

Would love to see content from New Mexico!

Hi! I live in Texas and work in the special needs ministry at my church, and in my neighborhood is an eight year old boy who is wheelchair bound and without speech. He had a disease as a child that caused injury to his brain. His name is Pierce and he is super energetic and loves to move around and absolutely loves popcorn!

Waiting for you to come to Arkansas! I would love to hear about other disabled individuals, such as myself, that live in my state!

You are the best spreader of positivity.

Hello from South Florida. I have just submitted my application via email. Thank you so much in advance for the opportunity to apply ❤ I feel that we could have a very meaningful discussion.

I live in Lubbock Texas, but I don't think I can do without a parent, and I don't think my parent would want to do an interview, but I will do it when I get older! 😃👍🏽❤

Keep being awesome

Houston, Texas here! Just sent an email! 😊🙏🏻

I live in Texas can I apply? I’ve been wishing to do an interview for the longest time I’m a long time follower and supporter and live with many chronic illnesses some rare and disabilities 🫶💕so excited! 🥰

Yes, Like the idea of southern interviews as I don’t see much of it as well being someone who’s autistic that grew up in Kauai even if it’s not the South but mostly I don’t see much interviews in the South or Hawaii Islands but like the South more as you don’t much.

I love your channel

I truly wanted you to interview with my niece in Louisiana really bad..but unfortunately she passed away..she had the second rarest brain defect known..plus cerebral palsy and autism..she was non verbal..she was a real a tough kid.. despite her conditions she got around very well..Rest easy Avani Skye Cook..

Thank you so much for your so hard deep Importen holt work.❤

Love your channel. ❤❤❤

I can't wait til you come back up to the northeast!! I live in the Boston area!!

Wylie TX (Dallas suburb) 19 yo son Gabriel has Job’s Syndrome with scoliosis, epilepsy and functional autism. He’s very interesting and as attending local college. My wife and I would love you and your wife in our home.

I can’t wait to see more interviews

You and your guess inspire me.

also mississippi people. Im from laurel Mississippi and would love to hear interviews from more people here because i feel our state needs more education about topics like chris touches on.

I sent an application in October and just emailed a reminder with some fun photos on my mom’s email. I hope that helps . Serena W. In Florida

Your doing gods work

My sweet niece Violet has Rhett syndrome and lives in Alabama. She is 9yrs old and on a new drug trial. Rhett syndrome is devastating but Violet is always smiling and dancing through it. She loves music that is her connection to the world around her. She used a tobi eye gaze tablet to communicate. Rhett syndrome has taken a lot from her but has not taken her personality! She lives with her mom which is my sister in law and her father with an older brother!

Hi Chris I'm from OH and I would love an interview

Hey! I’m in SC and I just sent in my email. I have an official diagnosis of bipolar type 2. I also have C-PTSD. I would love to advocate for people like myself and show that you can lead a happy life despite having the odds stacked against you with a chemical imbalance and adverse childhood experiences. I really hope I hear back!!!

Im 19, I live in NC , I have bipolar disorder, OCD, and I am transgender which has been a crazy journey. Didn’t know I had OCD, everyone told me it was just anxiety. Also found out that I have ADHD at 17, went without accommodations in school my whole life. Medication and my emotional support animal has changed my life.

Hey Chris ,i was wondering when will you maybe start interviewing other humans from around the world ? I'm from israel and autistic (PDD-NOS) and im pretty sure there's disabilities or what not out there that could even be anomalies ,just not limited only to the US.. other then that i enjoy watching your videos^^ From Simba

I just got my application completed. Hopefully you see it soon, Chris and Alyssa.

I'd like to participate one day, because I really enjoy and appreciate the stories you share and the work you do, and how it educates people on the many things that are part of a person's life, and also how amazing these people can be, as well as how loving their families are. 🥹 My current diagnoses are Autism (Asperger's/ASD Level 1), ADD/ADHD, OCD, Anxiety and Depression. 🥺 Right now, I'm really nervous, though.. 😞😣 Hopefully I can participate next time y'all visit the south, because this time, I'm still dealing with poor mental health, and after watching Yasmin's story about C-PTSD and being able to relate to many of the feelings and things she described, I'm trying to get an assessment done to see if I could possibly have that as well, because it would explain so much.. 🤧 I'm looking forward to seeing more stories shared with us 🥹🫶🏻✨️🌸🐰

This is great! I'll ask around! I hope you'll feature some DJ activists this year as well! I absolutely LOVE Sins Invalid in California and I know for sure they inspired a whole generation! ❤🖤

I live in Florida and if you drive through Ocala/Silver Springs say Hi, I have a stereotyped mental illness but because I work in the medical field it is often negatively discussed among my colleagues. I do not discuss it much because automatically therapists. and mental health workers will put me in the corner. They do it by threatening me if I do not want to conduct therapy the way they want or if I want to quit and if I am not taking meds. They will inform me I am a mandatory informer and yes I know what that means and even if I am not depressed or suicidal I will still get that thrown at me. The first two therapists I had at BetterHelp did that to me because I just wanted to chat, I did not want to get on video or the telephone as I find that they will run the discussion and have you implicate yourself unwillingly.

Im in South Carolina and I have bipolar disorder, PTSD, and I sometimes hear/see/ believe things that others dont

I'm central Florida. I think that's great you will be here soon doing some awesome interviews with amazing people. Isn't Florida where you are from?

Looking forward to seeing the interviews in 2024 !

Im a cop in Oklahoma who is CIT (Crisis Intervention Team) i dont have a story. But the CIT state director C. Sutton has an amazing story. Ill send him this video in hopes he will reach out because I would love to see a video from an officers perspective who has 2 daughters that are special needs. And who has struggled with the things cops see daily.

Hello, my name is Cindy Makori and I live in Greenbelt, Maryland which is below the Mason-Dixon line. Your channel has helped me to address and grow out of my own stigmas especially the “othering” of people with disability. Now, I know I have a disability myself or that I am differently abled. I have Schizoaffective Disorder Bipolar Type which is the most distressing diagnosis I have. May I please be on your channel?

I would love to follow your journey

I have sent an email with the description of me and to see if I can get an interview I live in Atlanta Georgia

What about a followup interview with Byron Baxter?

I just sent you a email for you to interview me about conversion disorder. I would love for you to a interview so people woth my disability won't seem so alone and for people to learn more about my disability.

Hollywood, FL My brother was diagnosed with epilepsy at the age of 4 years old in Argentina. He was bullied at school and my parents switched him to another elementary. His seizures were eventually controlled and, though a bit socially awkward, he was thriving. Right after we moved to the States, seizures started again. He failed multiple medications, including THC, and was having 23 seizures a day. He had deep brain stimulation implant placed I believe 2021 with little improvement. He continues to have multiple seizures a day. I am hoping the interview would help boost his confidence and also hopefully help someone else along the way.
