    After experiencing firsthand the effects of suicide in my extended family, I became curious of the human condition and how we could possibly reach a point where we felt that there was no hope.
    The thought of someone suffering in silence, feeling alone and feeling like there is no way out breaks my heart.
    This video represents that isolated loneliness we can often feel...especially in the wake of traumatic events. But in the end it's about reaching out for help as well as reaching out to help others. When we connect as human beings, we become stronger, and are able to share and let go of the burden one might feel.
    If you or someone you know is going through a difficult time, don't be afraid to reach out. Life is definitely worth living.

    Hi, I am a suicide “survivor” and I emphasize survivor, because once we come thru, we must still learn to live, love and be happy. I had no idea I had a disorder (I like that better than illness 😊) like millions of others. We are taught how eat right, exercise, listen to our body, get physicals; but nothing about our mental health. Just imagine if every doctor took 5 minutes to ask just a few questions about our mental health. Soon, it would be as simple as talking about every other medical issues.. I loved your video! It is so hard to hold on..but if a hand reaches for us, the fall doesn’t hurt quite as bad.

      What you said about doctor' spending five minutes to speak about such things is crucial. The biggest reason that many of us continue to struggle is because no one took the time to explain to us that this is not a 'problem' but a medical condition just like any other. 5 minutes, just like taking a blood pressure. For all you doctors out there reading this....5 MINUTES. Help us when we are young to realize this is something we can openly discuss with our doctors WITHOUT being ashamed of it.

    I was suicidal in high school and college. I didn't feel anyone loved me. I cried out to God to intervene in my life because I just didn't want to live. And He did in several powerful ways. I knew He was real and had a purpose for my life so I gave my heart to Him and accepted His Son, Jesus Christ as my Savior. I knew for the first time how much I was really loved when I knew what Christ had done for me on the cross. I've been living for Him ever since.

    Thank you Derek. My neighbors mom hung herself a month ago and my boyfriend helped the body get down.. I didnt know them really but introduced myself to the daughter afterwards. Community is important. We all have purpose whether we recognize it or not. Say hi to your neighbors when they're walking their dogs, even if they never say hi back. Reach out to your friends. Dont tell people to not feel a certain way. It's okay to have emotions, even the bad ones. They are how we learn and experience life. But like the song says, hold on pain ends. I am 26 years old have been in the hospital twice at 19 and 22 for suicide but I never will again. I have learned how to cope, and that I have purpose and so much to give. Exercise, meditate, breathe, be in the moment. Return to the natural state of bliss we all deserve

      Simone Blum I don't know you and you don't know me but I know what you mean. I almost succeeded once, and that's when ALL THESE PEOPLE told me I have so much to live for and that so many people would need me. My reply? Where were they when I needed someone to listen??? Everyone expected me to just drop everything, listen to THEIR problems then fart rainbows, glitter, and unicorns. We both know that isn't real.
      I still struggle every hour of every day ... but I'm still here.
      I'm not going to tell you it's going to get better, it won't. I WILL tell you this - you matter. You may not even know how much but there is at least one person who would be devastated if you go.
      Life still chews me up and spits me out but I choose not to give in but to go on.
      I don't know you but I would shed a tear and feel horrible if you left out before your time. You matter even if you can't see it right now. You matter. Keep up the struggle, you're worth it.

    Depression is so horriffic, the altered brain chemicals makes my brain believe evil lies. It encourages me to isolate myself from the very friends & activities that help me feel better.
    I'm grateful that after months of struggling & suffering I found a great Dr who got me the medication I needed to fix the chemistry in my brain.
    Please never stop trying to support & engage your loved ones with depression.

      RosebeeVids they are two types of depression . One is the chemical imbalance and the other is live situation .
      I was always a fun person .
      I write songs I sing I paint and many other things . They come naturally to me .
      But my life situation dose not change what ever I did to change it . It gets worse and worse .
      A human can take it only for so long .
      I am trapped since 18 years now and everything I have to give and want to give , all dreams and hopes are gone . On my Bucket list is to learn dancing . It is a nice thought I expect nothing anymore .

    With every breathe feeling shattered, shattered
    You did your best
    Got nothing left, doesn't matter

    Its harder when your lies come out
    You know that you can

    I am speechless Derek. It opens such a deep wound since my brother committed suicide. It has changed my life so profoundly. I wish I knew how I could have helped him. He kept all his pain hidden from his family. I know people are struggling and they feel they can't go on. But the loved ones left behind are left with such a huge hole in their hearts. It's so difficult to accept. We were left with such guilt because we should have seen how unhappy he was. We don't know why he felt that was the only way. It just breaks my heart. Thank you Derek for your caring heart; your ability to reach out and help others; and inspiring us every day to remember that the secret to living is giving. You are always giving of yourself and I feel so blessed we share the same lifetime. Incredible song; powerful video; you're an extraordinary man.

      @brandonmiles86 6 років тому +17

      Hey, Linzey. I don't know you, but I just want to say that it's not you or your family's fault that your brother committed suicide. I planned my own suicide several years ago and almost went through with it. I hesitate to speak for your brother, but when I was in that state of mind, I felt like I was in a deep, dark tunnel with no light in sight. Death seemed like a rest and a relief. My family had no idea what I was going through because I was very good at wearing a happy "everything's fine" mask. So there is no way that your family could have known how unhappy he was if he was as adept as I was at pretending. My problems felt insurmountable and there is nothing that anyone could have said to make me feel differently. In the end I chickened out and asked for help. It's only through counseling and medication that things slowly got better. Please know that your brother's suicide had nothing to do with you guys and everything to do with him and how hopeless he must have felt. I'm sure that he knew that you guys loved him. I pray that you and your family are able to find some measure of peace someday.

      Linzey- sending you prayers and hugs. I too am a loss survivor. It is hard and we do feel the guilt. But we all need to understand that what our loved ones were / are going through is something we cannot even begin to feel. They did not take their lives thinking of us, those that are left behind. They only wanted to heal their "pain". I love this video and message it sends. I hope you will find peace. God Bless you and your family.

This is such a beautiful video/song that is so raw, emotional, and unfortunately a real issue that so many deal with everyday. It’s okay to ask for help, and hold on because tomorrow is another day. Thank you for shedding light on mental health/suicide awareness. 💜

    Over the last three years I have battled prescription pill addiction. It got really bad! With the withdrawals and depression, I almost left my family which is now unthinkable to me. My family and I are a very tight unit. I would close myself off and when things got really bad and I kept thinking why am I trying so hard to fight it. I know I’m going to make myself sound like just another crazy fan, but watching you dance or listening to this song got me through some really bad days. One day at a time!! Now I am eight months clean, I have my mind back and my family is stronger than ever. My daughter got me an early Mother’s Day gift and now I get to go watch you at the Fox Theatre tonight! I can’t promise the emotion won’t get to me. Lol I seem to be an emotional being these days. But it’s better than feeling nothing and being in that black void. So I am saying thank you!! I know you probably won’t see this but I’m thanking you anyway. God bless 💗💗

    Sometimes you just need someone to hold on to you for you to feel safe. But it’s hard when you are afraid to open up to people.

    To the person who is reading this.
    Hold on don't give up I know saying is easy but doing is hard. When you feel alone talk with the people I am not saying that it's going to be better but it feels better or if you are 😡 U know what I do I broke the things not expensive things but that makes me feel better. But plz don't hurt yourself & there is always be hope so don't give up . I tell myself every time don't give up. So don't give up for people who love you . so be strong 🤗

Seriously. Taking ur life will only take away ur chances for things to be so much better, even better than what ur life was before. Don't let go because things get tough; hold on even tighter. You will get through.

    Derek, I was with you at a Tony Robbins event when you spoke and rededicated your life to the Lord. Remember the young man who was injured by the "Batman Shooting" and the gal took the mic from him??? Crazy. It was such an insanely emotional time. I sat not far from you and I was in awe of the love and grace that surrounded you all. All I can say is how proud I am of this piece. I will share it with my universe and pray it touches many.. especially young soldiers. Love to you, and your family. I can't wait to see what Tony says about the video. You Freaking Rock!! @Derek Hough #HoldOn

    A time of uncertainty has left everyone in despair. Just having a loved one in your life to talk to could be the difference. A friend, a relative a colleague even a stranger who is willing to help gives hope to all. To everyone out there, don't be afraid to reach out. Someone who cares will be there for you. God bless everyone in this planet we call earth.

    Got so emotional watching this. Although I'm still struggling with depression I now know I'm not alone anymore. There are so many of us hurting in the world whether it's emotionally, mentally or physically and that line at the beginning is completely accurate especially for me. I feel like we as humans are slowly losing our empathy and trust in people because almost everyday you hear of or see something terrible happening whether it's in your own backyard or on the other side of the world, we are slowly becoming numb to it all. Thank you Derek for being a positive force in the world and using your God given talent to help spread that positivity. To share some hashtags from Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles
