@@hannahh8119 I understood it to mean that the journey either of us takes in life could be more than the repetitive nature we witness during those periods when we're seemingly normal (sane) & the unseen moments when the uncertainties of life befall us..

That is very true. You can think that you have no one out there who cares and it's normal for people to think that when really there are people that care. They can even be strangers who care

Im in that time in which I can't hide my depression anymore. I can't smile even if I were to fake it... I do not feel myself anymore. Im just shadow of what I used to be.
I can tell you, with an open heart, that you will be okay... give up your fear to the universe.. God, or whatever you believe. Have faith and remember that although you may think so, you are not alone

How beautiful and heart warming it would be TO BE that one friend who actually believes that IT IS possible to help a friend with depression. And this piece is so accurate at many levels.
Yes, help can take the form of many different things, not just curing or solving depression. The person you befriended is still there, and all of the parts of them that defined your friendship, as well. It’s just that now they have been forced into a battle with depression, and this battle has an influence on their thinking and behavior. But even so, they are still there, just wrapped up in the fight so it may be difficult to see. They are not broken or in need of fixing, they are just carrying a weight and are in need of assistance wherever necessary. So helping a friend with depression can look like treating them and interacting with them how you usually do, but always being at the ready to help them when they ask, or when it becomes clear that they need your support (such as if their lives are in danger). You cannot be the one directly in battle since you cannot reach depression, and so you can only give them tools, ideas, and advice on how to fight back. That can take the form of just listening to what they have to say without judgement. You don’t have to know the right thing to say back to them, just listening will show them that you care, they’re not alone, and that no matter what state their mind is in, they still have a life to live and a sense of stability and consistency that will follow them. This also helps them get out of their heads so that they can avoid distorted thoughts, avoid getting overwhelmed, and so they can replenish their energy to continue the battle.

Am I helping my friend with her depression! She’s getting better! But. At the price of my own mental health….I can’t take it anymore. I’m slowly breaking from all the shit she was dealing with. I have a problem of listening to ppls problems and letting them trauma dump on me. I never watched my own mental health. I never paid attention when I quit eating.

I remember the first day when I went to college after being diagnosed with depression,I do remember my friends staring at me waiting for my jokes to hit the conversation...

But this poem described everything, no body notice that little thing missing in me,except me, and sometimes my friends....it’s like someone really wrote it for me...God...thank you dear illneas
there are no complex words here, no over the top vocabulary. and yet you have managed to explain something I have been struggling to write about so beautifully. How does one manage to put something so complicated and harrowing within the confines of such simple yet profound lines? this is most probably the most saddest and beautiful video on this channel. I have no words.
Thank you so much Leyla it means a lot coming from you, recently I had a conversation about the use of simple and complex language in poetry and currently I enjoy reading things that focus on characters and emotions rather than words.
How coincidental that a few days ago I actually wrote a poem of how everybody asks why I've changed and don't smile like I used to or how nowadays I'm not as cheerful as I used to be.
I feel like this poem is speaking to me, it is comforting to have someone notices that there is something not right with you. Personally in real life nobody notices how I've changed, that I haven't been myself for a year and a half. This video helps a little. Thank you.
My heart skipped a beat after reading the title How did he know about me? Then I realised, it's UA-cam and it's for everyone :) We're all on the same boat friends 🙂
my dad had severe depression but he's fine now. It wasn't easy,at times I was really mad at him for making us go through that with him, I didn't really understand that it's not necessary to have a REASON to feel depressed. For all those who feel depressed please keep fighting and seek help.

I am so sorry for whatever reason you are here, and I don't want to lie, so I won't say it will get better right now, but it will later.

You didn't give up, and that's why you're laughing, because, you did it. You made it. You overcome the problem, and you made progress. And I'm proud of you. Even if you haven't gotten there yet, even if you feel like you're stuck on the same page, repeating the same painful days over and over again, I am still proud of you. I am proud of you because you are here for another day. I am proud because you woke up. I am proud that you keep being storng and keep living. I am proud of your grades or work in general, you sure must had worked hard to achieve the results. I am proud for that little smile you have when you see cute animal. I am proud of your tears, because you were strong, and let them out. I am proud because you are you. Don't change for others, they don't deserve you if they don't like you just the way you are. Don't let their mean words into your brain, sure, they are hurtful, but these people are assholes for picking on others. Don't stop trying, because you're doing so well. I'm proud of you for getting this far

I don't want friends. But I can't say I wouldn't be lost without my family although even when they're gone, I'm not losing my independence and self reliance to anyone.
Great poem. I've suffered depression for years and I'm still suffering. It's one hell of a battle, and sometimes you just want to scream out loud. I often find myself screaming and crying to myself silently, and I wonder why nobody knows what I'm going through. Well there's the answer... if you're suffering with depression, please speak up about it, or do something in your life which will make you happy - like making others smile who are also suffering. I'm planning to travel to poor countries and help the needy. This will make me happy. Find your purpose in life.
Why to tell people our problems when they don't even care for us if they cared for us we wouldn't have felt depressed. I never realized what loneliness and depression is when i used to live with my parents ever since I've been living away from my parents first for graduation and now worklife i realized people don't care unless you're an eyecandy for them (beautiful in their eyes) or you have lots of money to spend on them or you can entertain them with jokes . People may show concern in workplace or college but they just wanna feel good by listening to your depression story
Our best friends died a 100 years ago or live 100 thousand miles away from us but they chat with us through art.Thank you Illneas my friend.You helped a lot when I fought demons in my head.You're a big reason I conquered them.You're a diamond.
It felt both like I could see both the sides of this poem, probably cause I have been on both the sides... ♡"The best poems are hidden under a bed in a shoebox"♡
Yesterday snowstorm, today sunshine. Like the rollercoaster of our moods. I'm looking forward to tomorrow, reminder has been set 😎😷 Stay safe, stay healthy all around the world!
When I think about the smile you gave up so easily, I realise looking back that it was a way of giving me a beautiful part of you. A part so beautifully agonising, knowing that I’ll never see that smile the same way again
"you used to give your smile to everyone so proudly, unitl the day you didn't and the memorie of you radiating happiness is fading" that hit too close to home-- lol
As a person who has faced darkness sometime, and as a therapist, dealing with others' dark recesses since years, this work has touched and impressed me so deeply. It's really an exact mirror image. It comes from a Felt Space Illneas... And it brings hope too. Thanks for finding and holding my smile for me.
Wow, this spoke directly to me! I don’t know how to climb out of this hole I find myself in, and maybe I don’t want to because then, people will see me. Now I feel the burn of tears, that want to escape, but I fight them, because they are proof of my weakness, my failings, my fears. Thank you for making me feel...
I love this! I found your channel a couple of weeks ago when I was searching for poetry channels and you are the only one that inspired me this far. I'm a little shy so I don't comment that much but this video in particular hit me hard. I have suffered from depression since I was a teen and it is very comforting to listen to this words. Thank you! Here my top 5 from your videos: -If by Rudyard Kipling -Writing by Charles Bukowski -A smile to remember by Charles Bukowski -The morning after I killed myself -And this video❤️ I love most of your videos but these 5 are just perfect. Keep doing art!
Almost all of your videos have made me smile and made me admire your skills. But this one hits a bit different, it really just leaves me with so many thoughts. Almost like encountering the monsters again but this time with a sense of gratitude. It's so weird ! Thank you for publishing this.
"Depression, is like trying to find a light switch in pitch darkness. Defeating it takes much assistance and resource. First, it's letting in loved ones that are reaching out, when light will begin to shine."
this poem was gifted to me by a friend some rare kind soul tiny details have powerful impact dont ever stop being kind this soul has just lighted me a lil ill always remember that it's something can't be forgotten ..
Been waiting for this. I feel empty inside I don't even know what to do about it everytime my depression starts kicking in... I can't describe it, I can't think of a word to say, or maybe telling others and myself that I'm fine when I'm not cause it's the simplest and easiest thing to say..
so beautiful, and sad, and really hard. I am struggling with severe depressions and this touches me really much. Really talentated author..... My camera helped me to stay alive, really literally, during some heavy depressive episodes, so even the "kid with a camera" touched me deeply
Its such a great feeling knowing that someone believes you can make it out instead of blaming you for falling into depression. Well done mate, such a touching poem that many people can relate to
Hi, just wanted to let u know u truly made me happy with your content! I know one person can't speak for all but I'm sure that I'm not not the only one who is enchanted and inspired by what you do. So here is a big thank you :)
"You used to gift your smile to everyone so proudly until the day you didn't" "Dear Friend, I wrote this poem to tell you that I found your smile" I want someone to say this to me........genuinely, because i think this is something i needed to hear a long time ago
After so many days of hiding all my feelings under a smile, this video did give away all the tears that were hidden. And yes, even in tears I can say I am my own best friend...
Omg, this is soo beautiful !! I love thiss !! Thank you for this !! To everyone in the comments section, I LOVE Y’ALL SO MUCH MY ANGELS !! Y’ALL ARE SOO STRONG AND BEAUTIFUL inside and out !! Sending y’all LOADS OF LOVE, BLESSINGS, POSITIVE ENERGY AND BIG HUGS !! We’re gonna get through this together !! ❤️❤️❤️✨
That's a very beautiful poem! I hope you managed to help your friend and it's never a waste to at least try. The last line was very good, "I found your smile", that really made me feel something. Thank you for sharing.
You're a good person and a good friend. I hope your friend finds their way back soon, the pit of depression is long and wide but it is possible to get out with help & treatment.
This really hit home tonight. I have battled depression for almost 20 years and am close to giving up. Your poem provided some light in my dark world and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
An INTEREST, then A PASSION, then An OBSESSION, and then DEPRESSION. Well done Education System, for the Depression I got, for you didn't let me Follow My Passion, and now it's A DIVERSION.
Our education system is very much responsible for depression we were never taught how to file ITR or how to overcome depression when it kicks in our education system failed in teaching us how to be a normal human
sometimes i lose hope for my little poetry channel but then I see gems like this and remember how poetry helps me find calm and peace and maybe my poetry will help others too... ❤
In your lovely videos I'll be eagerly waiting to notice cats in the middle. Because that is what i love the most in it. God bless you bro. I listen to your videos every afternoon in college it gives me meaning to my thoughts and to myself. Thank u ❤️
I’ve never been one to smile often even when I’m somewhat happy. So if I were to be sad or depressed not many would give a second thought, and just think that’s how I always look.
Oh wow. I just started writing a poem about this same topic last week. I’m surprised by how how many similarities they share. Its nice to know others feel the same way when trying to help a depressed friend. 😌
I will be waiting! The title and the quote you posted earlier makes me think this is going to be just as beautiful as your past videos. Tbh can't wait (˃̵ ᴗ ˂̵)
Dear Friend, Thank you for being so kind. Thank you for believing that you can help a friend with the battle in his mind. Thank you for the tears you helped me shed and thank you for helping my tarnished, ravished soul feel just a little fed. I love this poem.
I don't have depression, but it's a whole other feeling I'm experiencing having stumbled upon this video myself, as if the video is speaking directly to me...

"...the odyssey of our lives could be more than an oscillation between the things we didn't choose."
Could you explain what this means (to you)? My first language isn't English and I struggle to understand this line..

I felt this meant that our life is more than regret, way more than just looking at the past at the things you didn't do.
Our lives could be more than the back and forth between the decisions we regret not making.
The people who watch it themselves without it being sent by a friend are on a whole other level of depression......

Don't change for others, they don't deserve you if they don't like you just the way you are.
Don't let their mean words into your brain, sure, they are hurtful, but these people are assholes for picking on others.
Don't stop trying, because you're doing so well. I'm proud of you for getting this far
““Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.”
Matthew 11:28 believe me I wanted to die too but because of him I’m healed. and he wants to heal you too. he’s the reason why I’m alive today💖
And it’s not the end. There are many times in the Bible where they thought it was the end. Like the the death of Jesus. Or like Moses in the wilderness. And even Me I thought it was the end But God rescued me. Even tho your not a Cristian. Give ur pain to Jesus. He loves u. And yea true. But he is always there❤
Anyone can win half the battle of depression if they had a friend like you who really cared ❤️❤️
Yes !! Personal experience. Ever grateful
I don't want friends. But I can't say I wouldn't be lost without my family although even when they're gone, I'm not losing my independence and self reliance to anyone.
Great poem. I've suffered depression for years and I'm still suffering. It's one hell of a battle, and sometimes you just want to scream out loud. I often find myself screaming and crying to myself silently, and I wonder why nobody knows what I'm going through. Well there's the answer... if you're suffering with depression, please speak up about it, or do something in your life which will make you happy - like making others smile who are also suffering. I'm planning to travel to poor countries and help the needy. This will make me happy. Find your purpose in life.

Why to tell people our problems when they don't even care for us if they cared for us we wouldn't have felt depressed. I never realized what loneliness and depression is when i used to live with my parents ever since I've been living away from my parents first for graduation and now worklife i realized people don't care unless you're an eyecandy for them (beautiful in their eyes) or you have lots of money to spend on them or you can entertain them with jokes . People may show concern in workplace or college but they just wanna feel good by listening to your depression story
Our best friends died a 100 years ago or live 100 thousand miles away from us but they chat with us through art.Thank you Illneas my friend.You helped a lot when I fought demons in my head.You're a big reason I conquered them.You're a diamond.
That ending gave me chills.. best poem I've heard in a while.
Please never stop writing and never stop making these movies.❤️
It felt both like I could see both the sides of this poem, probably cause I have been on both the sides...
♡"The best poems are hidden under a bed in a shoebox"♡
' the memory of you radiating happiness is fading...'
Gorgeously done. Thank you, friend. 🤍
Oo my dear stranger
We are friends now
You're not alone in the ocean of sadness
I'm with you
And we will reach the most beautiful shore one day
Each of us...is a great warrior...it is inside us...even when u fell...have the courage to be YOU!
Yesterday snowstorm, today sunshine. Like the rollercoaster of our moods. I'm looking forward to tomorrow, reminder has been set 😎😷
Stay safe, stay healthy all around the world!
This makes me happy and sad at the same time. Thank you for this poem Illneas.
When I think about the smile you gave up so easily, I realise looking back that it was a way of giving me a beautiful part of you. A part so beautifully agonising, knowing that I’ll never see that smile the same way again
"you used to give your smile to everyone so proudly, unitl the day you didn't and the memorie of you radiating happiness is fading" that hit too close to home-- lol
As a person who has faced darkness sometime, and as a therapist, dealing with others' dark recesses since years, this work has touched and impressed me so deeply. It's really an exact mirror image. It comes from a Felt Space Illneas... And it brings hope too.
Thanks for finding and holding my smile for me.
I am truly mesmerized by the way ,
You capture every moment of the poem in the video , seems as if it is pure reflection of the words ,being recited
.
Wow, this spoke directly to me!
I don’t know how to climb out of this hole I find myself in, and maybe I don’t want to because then, people will see me. Now I feel the burn of tears, that want to escape, but I fight them, because they are proof of my weakness, my failings, my fears.
Thank you for making me feel...
I love this! I found your channel a couple of weeks ago when I was searching for poetry channels and you are the only one that inspired me this far. I'm a little shy so I don't comment that much but this video in particular hit me hard. I have suffered from depression since I was a teen and it is very comforting to listen to this words. Thank you!
Here my top 5 from your videos:
-If by Rudyard Kipling
-Writing by Charles Bukowski
-A smile to remember by Charles Bukowski
-The morning after I killed myself
-And this video❤️
I love most of your videos but these 5 are just perfect.
Keep doing art!
It’s so amazing to see our loved ones smile. To me it’s such a blessing & a best thing in the whole wide world. Anything for their smile.
Almost all of your videos have made me smile and made me admire your skills. But this one hits a bit different, it really just leaves me with so many thoughts. Almost like encountering the monsters again but this time with a sense of gratitude. It's so weird ! Thank you for publishing this.
Thank you.....I am that friend with depression and I hope to find my smile I gave away so long ago.
This poem is warm in my heart.....
"Depression, is like trying to find a light switch in pitch darkness. Defeating it takes much assistance and resource. First, it's letting in loved ones that are reaching out, when light will begin to shine."
this poem was gifted to me by a friend
some rare kind soul
tiny details have powerful impact
dont ever stop being kind
this soul has just lighted me a lil
ill always remember that
it's something can't be forgotten ..
How beautiful it is! "...that I found your smile."
I just notice this” by illneas”
Yes..I’m so proud of you... I’m sure one day I will buy a book written by you
Been waiting for this. I feel empty inside I don't even know what to do about it everytime my depression starts kicking in... I can't describe it, I can't think of a word to say, or maybe telling others and myself that I'm fine when I'm not cause it's the simplest and easiest thing to say..
so beautiful, and sad, and really hard. I am struggling with severe depressions and this touches me really much. Really talentated author.....
My camera helped me to stay alive, really literally, during some heavy depressive episodes, so even the "kid with a camera" touched me deeply
i play songs and poems when im studying to focus more, but when this played, i just couldnt move, this is a true piece of art, you are a genius
Thanks for making these beautiful words. Now I am feeling really down and I never felt kinda this depressed feelings before.
Its such a great feeling knowing that someone believes you can make it out instead of blaming you for falling into depression. Well done mate, such a touching poem that many people can relate to
thank you so much for this. Words can not express how much this means and how beautiful it is. Thank you
“ *you used to give your smile to everyone so proudly , until the day you didn’t* “
Hits so hard , I’m crying rn
Hi, just wanted to let u know u truly made me happy with your content! I know one person can't speak for all but I'm sure that I'm not not the only one who is enchanted and inspired by what you do. So here is a big thank you :)
I still think that the best thing that happened to me last year was finding this channel. I love these videos
"You used to gift your smile to everyone so proudly until the day you didn't"
"Dear Friend,
I wrote this poem to tell you
that I found your smile"
I want someone to say this to me........genuinely, because i think this is something i needed to hear a long time ago
"Dedicated to people who fight demons in their heads and their friends who help them win"
God bless the person who wrote these powerful words.
I hope one day I'll share this poem to the ones who need it.
After so many days of hiding all my feelings under a smile, this video did give away all the tears that were hidden. And yes, even in tears I can say I am my own best friend...
This is breathtaking! Thank you for sharing this incredible piece of art
I gave my smile to someone who promised to give it back, but they took it for themselves - I will never forget these words that someone told me once 😔
Great poem and great visuals. I love how the visuals translate as much emotions as the poem
Yes Yes!
I am sure that these words will find many smiles in the grave yard of lost and lonely thoughts.
Thanks for the share.
thank you for creating this wonderful piece😊🥺. hearing this has brought me to tears and it made me feel nice. truly.❤
im in tears. I chose to watch this hoping it would make me feel better
This was amazing. Thank you for sharing this with us
The memory of a day when I radiated happiness isn't fading, that memory disappeared long ago. I can't recall even one now.

Sending y’all LOADS OF LOVE, BLESSINGS, POSITIVE ENERGY AND BIG HUGS !! We’re gonna get through this together !! ❤️❤️❤️✨
That's a very beautiful poem! I hope you managed to help your friend and it's never a waste to at least try. The last line was very good, "I found your smile", that really made me feel something. Thank you for sharing.
Aaaaaaah
It's so beautiful😭
You are becoming more and more precious❤️
thank you so much for making this. it spoke to me so deeply, and broke and lifted my spirit at the same time. just thank you
This made me felt like a friend just held my hand...
You're a good person and a good friend. I hope your friend finds their way back soon, the pit of depression is long and wide but it is possible to get out with help & treatment.
Thank you for making this one. Thank you❤
This really hit home tonight. I have battled depression for almost 20 years and am close to giving up. Your poem provided some light in my dark world and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Simply a hug of words...♥️♥️♥️
An INTEREST, then A PASSION, then An OBSESSION, and then DEPRESSION.
Well done Education System, for the Depression I got, for you didn't let me Follow My Passion, and now it's A DIVERSION.
Our education system is very much responsible for depression we were never taught how to file ITR or how to overcome depression when it kicks in our education system failed in teaching us how to be a normal human
sometimes i lose hope for my little poetry channel but then I see gems like this and remember how poetry helps me find calm and peace and maybe my poetry will help others too... ❤
Once again, I am absolutely touched by your writing and camera work. Please continue to write and film these videos. It’s beautiful ❤️
In your lovely videos I'll be eagerly waiting to notice cats in the middle. Because that is what i love the most in it. God bless you bro. I listen to your videos every afternoon in college it gives me meaning to my thoughts and to myself. Thank u ❤️
I’ve never been one to smile often even when I’m somewhat happy. So if I were to be sad or depressed not many would give a second thought, and just think that’s how I always look.
Where have you been hiding these poems all this time???? Your words are amazingly beautiful ❤❤
I look up to your writing and narration so much. This is so beautiful and brings a sense of peace to my soul.
This video is acutely beautiful, i think.
This is so beautiful because for reasons I understand, most people can't stick it out for long❤️💗
"One day every random detail of my life will make sense..." ~ illneas
Oh wow. I just started writing a poem about this same topic last week. I’m surprised by how how many similarities they share. Its nice to know others feel the same way when trying to help a depressed friend. 😌
I have chills rn.. This is amazing.. thank you so much!
This is why writing comes naturally for me. This is beautiful.
Beyond beautiful ❣️❣️❣️❣️...... literally gave me goosebumps....felt it to the bones.....Thank you for this poem
thank you for this poem. it is touching
in a bittersweet way
I will be waiting! The title and the quote you posted earlier makes me think this is going to be just as beautiful as your past videos. Tbh can't wait (˃̵ ᴗ ˂̵)
Dear Friend,
Thank you for being so kind. Thank you for believing that you can help a friend with the battle in his mind. Thank you for the tears you helped me shed and thank you for helping my tarnished, ravished soul feel just a little fed. I love this poem.
Just heart touching 🖤 hope everyone's okay 🙃
I don't have depression, but it's a whole other feeling I'm experiencing having stumbled upon this video myself, as if the video is speaking directly to me...
Sensitive. Lovely. True.
I never came across such a good reading. It felt like a friend who had been with me all along wrote to me after I was no more.
The odyssey of our lives could be more than an oscillation between the things we didn't choose. Hah! You make me feel good. Thankyou so much. :)
The fading of a smile, I know that too well 😞
Thank you Illneas, its a touching poem with a lovely ending ♡♡
Ohh man...I can’t wait😍😍
Wow, this is one of those things I'll have to come back to several times and unpack more once I'm down again. Powerful, and meaningful.
