- I normally don't do videos like this. Initially, I was a bit insecure about posting this.. but I decided to. I had to do this video non-verbal because when I'm in a shutdown, I have a hard time properly articulating my feelings. Thank you for taking the time to watch this. Share your thoughts/experiences in the comments section below. Subscribe to my channel for more videos. We need to draw awareness to depression because it is real.

*Hug you tight* I'm terribly sorry how you felt. I had my moments in the past, but luckily I had a friend there to help. Just know you are important, admired and loved. Just take one step at a time and tell yourself I will get through this. Think of all the good things, even if it's the very little. I'm glad you made it through. Thanks for sharing your experience.
gosh, yeah i know what this feels like, feeling just so exhausted you don't care about anything. I've had so pretty tough sleepless nights too, it's usually when my mind to too full of thoughts i can relax enough to fall asleep. usually what triggers my emotional shutdown is thinking about too many things at once, thinking about all my failures, how much my life sucks and hating myself. you are very brave for posting this video to show us how you cope with this. hope you take care and feel better donny. :)
I don't comment a lot and don't even know you compared to some of the other Glamberts. This made me want to be there for you so much even if that meant just sitting on the floor saying nothing. I applaud you for posting this in order to bring attention to things. I feel like this comment was a whole lot of rambling but just know I've been where you were in this video and I'm sending love and light your way. You're strong you'll get through this.
Wow... that really took a lot of courage to post this. I'm really glad you did, because this really needs to be talked about. Thank you Donny.
So sorry about that. I wish you feel better soon. Honestly,I do mean that.
Thank you. *hug*
No problem.Dude.*cyber hugs back* You're a super hero in my eyes because you're so brave for making video.
Hi there, thanks for sharing your video on what life can be like for you while going through this phase. Yes, it's never easy but within saying that there's always HOPE. I hope that you are okay after shooting this video as this does take a lot of courage to do this. It's okay to cry as this needs to be done in men as this shows not weakness but strength and courage. I know how that feels and I salute you and wish I could be there. Hope you will be better soon.... ❤🐾🎵🎶🐺🐶
The video certainly is striking
Crying is just stigmatized for everyone. It's seen as typical out of women - and therefore it's looked down upon. It's seen as atypical out of men - and therefore it's looked down upon. In my situation as a woman with more masculine interests and personality traits, it feels like I get both ends of the stick, and they're both bad. "Stop being such a stereotypical woman! This isn't how you're supposed to react!"
Sorry you go through this time and again. I had a bout once with something like depression (brain dehydration can cause a disturbing temporary chemical imbalance), so I can kind of understand what these shutdowns feel like. I had multiple disconnections from reality in 2015, mostly at work since that was the source of my troubles at the time. I'd just stop what I was doing and my head was completely empty. I had to will myself to snap out of it quickly because I was at risk of losing my job (due to my own stupid decisions). After I got everything balanced out again, my frame of mind drastically improved and I went far in 2016, to the point where I cried a little bit when I had to resign because of my move.
You're my favorite co-admin Donny, and if there's any time you need to talk or vent, I'm just a facebook message away. :)
I wish I was there to hug you
To squeeze a little smile out of you
I'll give you a give a tight hug if I were there.
