Thank you, thank you, thank you for being a responsible reactor and posting the Suicide Prevention information. As someone that's fought with suicidal thoughts for a lot of my life, I really appreciate you putting the information up there and what you said in the video. You never know when the smallest thing can help a person.
I hope you are doing better these days. I know it may seem daunting, but maybe professional help is the answer, or talking to a trusted friend about what you are going through. People care about you, even if it may not feel like it at times. Be safe, I wish you the best.
Jennifer, praying for you dear. I can't even imagine. Just trust that he's waiting for you in Heaven and believe me, we're so close to being raptured out of here. I really feel within weeks. I can't wait to see my momma and daddy again. Just make sure you're ready. If you don't know, please Google the Romans Road, read it , believe it and follow the instructions. If you do, you become a child of God and no one can take that away from you. Praying for you dear!
My condolences 😢, my cousin ended his life 15 months ago, I can't imagine the pain of losing a child , hopefully you have been able to watch his rascals Flatts reaction by now, I too live with major depressive disorder.
Ok Billy, you got me this time. I’ve never heard this song and I’m sitting here crying watching. This one cuts very deep. My 12 year old daughter took a jump rope at school and hung herself in April of this year because her dad walked away from her, choosing drugs and women over her. She has had the hardest time with it, wondering what she did so wrong to make him not love her anymore. Luckily, a teacher found her in time and called the school resource officer (police officer) to cut her down. By the grace of God, they saved her life and she is ok. So many are not that fortunate. I wish we as a society focused more on loving and supporting each other as opposed to bullying or attacking over body image, politics, race, etc. Thank you for putting up the suicide prevention information. You really have no clue who may need it. To anyone who may be reading this and feeling alone or suicidal, you are loved more than you know. Please reach out to someone ♥️♥️
I was 21 when my brother, crying on the phone, begged me not to make his kids, 2 daughters at the time, learn about their aunt from pictures. It was harsh feeling at the time but I needed to hear something like that. Helped put true perspective on whod miss me
Thank you for doing this reaction. I did request it and I’m sure others did. I’m a 30 year old single mom. I attempted suicide twice when I was 18. Had my son at 21. I still struggle with depression mostly due to my health. Was diagnosed with lupus and some heart issues. My son is now my saving grace. His name is Liam and he will be 9 this summer. Again thank you for doing this reaction
Thank you for fighting to keep these types of messages out there! My husband and I tell our son to always "look for the helpers". Thanks for being a helper Billy. ♥️♥️♥️
That line “did his mom and daddy forget to say I love you son” really hits me. Before going to school every day, my parents would say “I love you”. It’s those little things, they make a world of difference. I remember when I was 14 and I got diagnosed with depression, my dad spent hours finding the best therapist for me. He understood it’s not something I can help, and he wanted me to be okay, he would pull me out of school every Monday 10 minutes early to get me to my appointment. The first time I left early, someone in class said “you going to therapy?” as a joke and I said yes, the whole class laughed at me. Thankfully, my teacher slammed his fist on his desk and said “if any of you joke about that again, you’ll be having a meeting with the principal”, and I never heard about it again. People have your back, I’m glad mental health is taken seriously, it’s hard and at times you feel alone. You’re not alone, you’re never alone. No one wants you gone at all. You ARE loved and wanted. Don’t forget that, please don’t forget that.
This video was filmed at a school where I was living at the time and opened a discussion, and eventually better training across the board in our high schools. It helped a lot us get help.
The people left behind always feel guilty. I've been that kid in the back seat watching their parents crying. BTW... I saw that Blaine Larsen was 18 at that time, or around that age.
I just want to thank you for being a positive influence in a world where people seem to be so self absorbed and selfish. Thank you, we need more people like you in this world. Thank you sir for your service!
My dude, I've never been more grateful to find someone as I was to stumble onto your page. As someone who has struggled with depression most of his life, and suicidal ideation for far too many years, nothing makes me happier than someone willing to discuss it openly and provide access to resources. Neither of those happened when I was younger and too many of my age group gave up.
It is a very dark place when you get that lonely and most time no one knows ,luckily for me I loved family enough too find my way through and they never knew
I'm so glad you did this. A month ago I lost a friend to suicide. We had hungout 2 days before. I had no idea. A year ago my mother tried to take her own life. I stood with her every way on the step to recovery. She still struggles everyday with those thoughts and I hope and I pray she knows she can call or text me come see me whenever. Day or night.
Ohh wow I’m sorry to hear about your friend and will most def keep my prayers for your mom that she does reach out if she ever feels that way because I know that’s hard! So glad I can bring awareness on my platform (when UA-cam allows it to be seen before they block it like always 🙄) really sending all my positive energy your way tho!
Billy, the video by itself (without your heart) is a depressing song. I speak from experience that if you are already depressed this song can drive it deeper. I don't listen to these types of songs anymore. I clicked on here to see your reaction. You took this from sad to happy. It is so beautiful to hear someone say I care. Even though I am doing very well, I still use the tools I was taught over the years to recognize when I may need help. Thank you for your generous heart! God Bless
I love this song I had a friend who died in high school and we played this at his viewing he was a star running back and it was different at school without him and tell this day I prey for his family and other close to him and I went through dark time in was close couple times but thank god I never went through I got help but it will never go away I just wanted to say anyone going through it you are not alone and god loves you and has a plan for you
These videos help out a lot when I’m feeling dead in this world it shows me that I have been blessed and that i need to push forward in life thanks my man
I know this video is 3 years old Billy, but this hits at home. I have been there and almost ended my own life last year. This video really means a lot, as I almost ended it over my ex-girlfriend. A year later I regret thinking that way as life is really special.
Billy.. You have helped me so much. Your encouragement and words of empowerment. My parents left me at a gas station when i was 13. I've been on my own ever since. At age seven I tried to killed myself.. Then again at age 15.. I'm a single mom of 4 kids and they are my reason for living. Thank you..
He may not have replied, but I'm glad you're still here with us and for your children. I hope all is well ❤️ if nobody's told you in a while you're doing good keep going I love you ❤️
Thanks for caring enough to fight for important things. Just found out that my son is struggling with this. This possible future scares me so much. Keep fighting the good fight cause people like my son need everyone fighting.
Keep doing what you do Billy. I watch you daily. I used to watch this video a lot. I have been in so many abusive relationships I felt this way. My God and my children kept me grounded. We all need to bring awareness to suicide prevention. God bless you Billy!!
Having lost my brother to suicide this song HITS HOME...this song and THE CALL by Matt Kennon, and lately Christian music helps me cope...its been 20 years but it feels like yesterday....😭😭😭
It's 4 years later...it still hurts. In the last year ( 2023 ), I lost my Fiancée just before our wedding, my mom and my dad all in just about 4.5 months. I found out I had a heart attack and didn't know it and am currently being checked for prostate cancer. I want to be mad at God but it's not right...he gives us no more than we can handle and I keep on. I give praise to him and pray he guides me thru !!
I lost the love of my life over 5 years ago to suicide and I have so much guilt because looking back now, I see the signs he was giving me. But at the time I didnt. As other commenters have said, thank you for taking time to make sure you speak out about the issues and put up hotline numbers.
I understand how people get that lonely, been there many times! My kids don't call, I don't know my grandkids, lack of job, this could be the anthem of my life!!
Hope you're doing okay. Maybe send them a postcard on every occasion. Even if they don't respond or call, at least they will know you love them. Sometimes it's the little things. May God bless you and be with you. ❤️
So my uncle took his life on January 3, 2019. Part of my attempt to wrap my head around it was watching this video that I saw as a teenager. He left behind 2 kids and didn't say goodbye or talk to anyone. So this was a really hard one for me to watch.
I just happened up on your page and started watching. Love your reactions to videos. Especially how you show true emotional feelings. Thank you for telling people there life is worth living. Lost a good friend of mine this summer to suicide. If only he had known how many people truly loved and cared about him he would still be here today.
Thank you for spreading awareness. This came out just after I graduated High School and when I heard it and even now I hear it and cry because I absolutely know how one can get that lonely and I strive to make sure NOBODY ever feels that pain.
I have lost friends to suicide . I have been there myself where I didnt want to live anymore. I survived two domestic violence relationships. I suffer with PTSD. I so understand how people can feel like there is nothing left. :( Depression on top of it.. ugh . I'm still here.. struggling. but still here.
This song is one I played on repeat for a long time in 2009. From 2009 through 2012 it was the most played song by me. Lost so much in from August, 8th 2009 to may 11 2011 it had me in a dark place. Lost both my rocks in three years. But depression really has many people in very low places. It can be best but it's very, very hard. Thank you, Billy, you are an amazing young man and the world is a better place with you sharing everything you do.
I posted once before on your page and was hoping you would react to this video. One more thing, besides your service, that has gotten respect from me about you is that you speak your mind and stand up for the right causes. This video has personally spoken to me as one who has contemplated thoughts spoke about in this video. If it wasn;t for my family and true friends I have to say I wouldn;t be here today. Also please check out Fallen Soldier by SSG Nathan Fair.
I remember this song came out around the time a girl at my school passed from suicide. And luckily we live in a very supportive community so a lot of people attended the funeral.. and honestly it was more sad than funerals of family members I’ve been too. Her family was just devastated, I barley knew her but she crosses my mind often.
This song gets me right in my heart, one of my good friends in school Sherman took his own life. He girlfriend and I and him were all good friends. She broke up with him and he hung himself. He was an amazing guy. And everytime I hear this it reminds me of him.
Blaine and I were born the same year. He's 33 now. This song came out in 2004. We were 18. It has always been one of those songs that makes me cry when I hear it. I haven't heard it in a few years. Man. I forgot how heavy it is. =(
This makes me cry bc I have been at that point more then once in my life from when I was in middle school to only a few years ago, Only thing that ever stopped me was thinking about my family and friends.
Everytime I see a video with suicide as the topic, it hurts so bad. I have been affected by it in the worst way possible and I have contemplated it myself. I got help and I will try to help anyone else who might be thinking about it. There is always someone who cares out there. If you are hurt and don't want to go on, keep looking for that person. Thank you Billy for everytime you react to one of these types of videos.
Also thank you for explaining the blocked issue, I noticed it yesterday that a good handful of your videos are blocked for me (I'm in the US) so thought it was odd it was only specific songs.
@BillyYSC your videos always help me out with my depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Your laughter and honesty make me feel better and I'm truly grateful. Truly, little things like this make a difference.💖
Depression and this often go hand in hand. Bullying too! You sometimes just can’t see a brighter picture with you in it either your mind is telling you things or other people are. It doesn’t tend to make sense as to why yet you begin to believe what it is you’re hearing. After all if it is said enough it must be true,right? At least that is my take on it. Thankfully I have never gotten to that point. The lowest I’ve been was wondering if self harm would make me feel something I thought I was missing. Never did it just got this strange feeling around sharp objects in my wrist. I was smart enough to know that would only make things worse and would only help those nasty demon thoughts to grow stronger. It can be hard to ask for help yet the bravest thing you can do is ask. Just ask those people who you know would help be it a stranger or someone(the people who are pushing you to be better, who truly love you) close to your heart! Stay strong hunz!💕💝❤️
This was written by Rory Feek. Such a sad song. I've been in that dark place, too. But I was so good at hiding it, nobody knew. But that made it worse because I desperately wanted someone to look close enough at me to see the pain in my eyes. Someone to say "I know something is wrong. Talk to me." But they never did.
Thank you for spreading awareness. I've had some very dark days where suicide seemed like an good idea. Thank you for posting the way you do. Your videos always make me smile.
Bro. You seem like a good dude. I just found you and I saw your walk a little straighter song. I'm a little older than you. I had a lot of thoughts about suicide until I fell asleep and ran off of the road in 2011 and I woke up upside down on the roof of my truck. I still have thoughts about it but it's more of a what if instead of a potential to do it. You seem like you got a level head on your shoulders. This song actually came out around the time when I had a classmate kill himself. That class was so hard the rest of the year. I wasn't even really close to him but we were friends at one point. Seeing that empty desk the rest of the year was really tough... I don't know if you do a lot of country music reactions or if you have done this one yet, "what hurts the most" or "why" by Rascal Flatts are both amazing sad songs. "Three wooden crosses" I can't remember the artist Randy Travis I think. Of for a funny video "pray for you"by jaron and the long road to love
Stumbled across this reaction today on my 36th Birthday and my baby brother 10 years younger than me took his life last October this song came to me instantly when he passed. Now I’m feeling guilty that I’m still here being older and he’s not.
Thank you for sharing this video and your thoughts and the contact info. My Dad shot himself almost 3 years ago. He was 89 and sick and thought he was doing what was best for my Mom and all of us. He didn't want to be a burden. I don't know how much longer he would have lived but I still miss him every day. Giving people resources is so important. Thanks!
2nd time I've watched this here with you - hits soo very close to home, spoken from a very manic depressive person...your message is very appreciated. It is really hard to keep from taking this action when you feel sooo so low and worthless.
THANK YOU BILLY, WE WHO SUFFER, NEED TO HEAR THIS MESSAGE❣😘 I have almost died 2 times from suicide, both times my husband came home way earlier than expected (our kids were gone, visiting family), he found me unconscious,(2nd time I was in a coma for over a week)and the 1st responders arrived just in time. I suffer from depression, while trying to fight suicidal thoughts, all of the time...It's hard for me because I live in chronic pain, many medical conditions, and have only 1 close friend(she's so busy, that we hardly ever get to talk). Most of my family's very distant, and during the times I did try to take my life, my marriage was in a horrible place, I was lonely, and living in constant horrific pain (even though I'm on major pain, and antidepressant meds) ...afterwards, I separated from him, until he also got help, and then marriage counseling (He was a secret alcoholic, he just got his 3 year chip from AA this year, and knows that if he ever takes a drink again; He's lost his whole family). We've been married now for 24 years, and we're now in a wonderful place...even better then when we were 1st dating/early years of marriage (Before he started drinking). I'm still fighting with my depression daily, but I'm trying to focus on the happy times (past,current, and future)...Even with my quality of life diminished, in my early 40's, now with my husband, kids, and family, paying attention to the signs...and that I'm very open about when I'm struggling. I'm starting to have hope, and don't want to take my life...but it's a constant fight for me. I PRAY FOR EVERYONE WHO'S FIGHTING WITH THESE ISSUES, INCLUDING MYSELF...THERE IS HOPE❣🙏♾💝✌
I went through this for a while after my mom passed and my leg got worse and had me in the hospital. Just had to surround myself with my best friends and family
This is a very touchy subject for me and Allison a song ive listened to thousands of times... My father who raised me until I was 12 and moved with my mom committed suicide months after my sister and I moved and it left me with so many questions and anger and guilt and I had a rough life after that cuz it made me feel as if I wasn't good enough and everyone will always leave... I still struggle with it today even after 21 years but my kids have helped me through some of the dark times and I tell them daily how much I love them and nothing will ever take me away.
I went to school with Blaine and he had an awesome voice. I totally forgot about this song. My brother, that was 14 months younger than me, hung him self in March 30 2017. This hits hard. Miss him so very much and wish we could've takin all his pain away.
People go through this every day I talk too many kids like this or I used to I don't anymore but I just pray they're doing okay and my little light help them
So I grew up in a very volatile home and I have battled with depression & PTSD from an unfortunate young age. I clicked on this video cause I saw the thumbnail and recognized the song, knew I wanted to hear your thoughts on it Billy. Then as I'm listening I start to remember what this song meant to me growing up and when the lyrics "And nobody knows..." played tears instantly came to my eyes, it kinda took my breath away...I first heard this song in middle school during a very dark time in my life, when I'm sad to say I thought about suicide. I remember listening to it over and over for hours singing the words and sobbing. It was a relief to know that I wasn't the only one who felt that lonely and couldn't understand it myself. I felt like no one knew or cared and even though I'm an adult now and I've over come most of the things I went through... there are triggers and moments that pop back up that stop me in my tracks...but I'm glad I kept going. I'm so glad. Life is never easy but it can be worth living.. anyway I'm glad I watched this and I hope anyone out there who feels this lonely, keeps going. Thank you Billy! for the support and kindness you're an incredible guy! Hope you're Well!!
Every so often I feel this way, luckily I understand myself after years of my deep end of depression I can haul myself out, it's hard. I'm ready to go but I cannot. It will hurt the one who I love.
The first time I became aware of suicide was when my aunt shot herself in the head ( she wanted to be with her mama who passed a year prior to cancer) I was around 11...then my cousin over dosed himself when we were in high school ... then my aunt overdosed...she was found facedown in her living room ... i had a good friend and another cousin who both took there lives last year along with my uncle ... this song for me is powerful ... suicide does not stop the pain it simply passes it on to your loved ones ... I have so many regrets and what ifs ...daily... it kills me ... I should have seen the signs ...I wonder if I could have saved them ... it's a horrible situation..my uncle hit me the hardest I was close to him.. he always had a smile on his face ...he would always say I love you ...he always made sure everyone was happy ...he hid his pain so well.. I had no clue he was hurting ... there was no red flags...I wish with everything in me that he would have reached out ...everyone deserves to feel loved and valued and that there life is worth living ...everyday and every person is a gift to be treasured
I've... tried before... for me it wasnt being lonely it was feeling trapped. It was feeling like all I did amounted to nothing. Like life was hopeless and endless. Every day was the same old same old. I promised my family I would never again after seeing how they reacted. We never told me littlest siblings but I will always remember my brothers reaction and the way he would not let me be alone for months afterwards. After that I thought even if I don't live for me I will live for those around me. Having younger siblings (I'm talking like a decade younger) and nieces and nephews made it easier because I don't want them to have to go through "your aunt killed herself." My life isnt just mine and thats what keeps me alive.
Thank you Billy for doing this reaction I lost a friend due to an overdose. It was just a hard day for everyone to know that he was gone and we will always remember him. My suggestion is to do Billy Gilman - One Voice for your next reaction.
Ive been isolated for so long, no one would notice and no one's life would change. How do you get that lonely? The darkness suffocates you.The silence suffocates you. The pain smothers you. And people do know. They just don't care, not until the day after. That is how you get that lonely.
Blaine was 17 or 18 when this came out. I had a childhood bestfriend that past away when she was 19 or 20 maybe 21 she was in a car full of people and one of the girls who was in there they got into an argument, they pulled over got out of the car and the girl that she was arguing with pushed her into on coming traffic and she got hit by a car, she passed away a week later. I miss and think about her every single day!! Another one that makes me think of her is dont blink by Kenny Chesney. R I.P Haylee Jo I miss you and love you so so much!
Best accident ever, was Finding your page and you .
That means a lot Andrea!! Love your support
agreed!
Me too! A happy accident!
@@BillyYouSoCrazy I love watching your videos and I have been your fan since December 2019 so I haven't been a fan for that long
Yes, I so agree. I have fallen in love with this reaction channel!

You are not alone. Even to this day I will occasionally have the thoughts. Thank God I have a great support system. Please continue to stay strong.
I hope you are doing better these days. I know it may seem daunting, but maybe professional help is the answer, or talking to a trusted friend about what you are going through. People care about you, even if it may not feel like it at times. Be safe, I wish you the best.
My son died by suicide at 19. I have foundation in his name bring awareness into the school and scholarships in his name. Play rascal flatts why.
Bless you!! I have a 17 yo son getting ready to graduate and he battles with severe depression. Prayers and hugs my friend.
Jennifer, praying for you dear. I can't even imagine. Just trust that he's waiting for you in Heaven and believe me, we're so close to being raptured out of here. I really feel within weeks. I can't wait to see my momma and daddy again. Just make sure you're ready. If you don't know, please Google the Romans Road, read it , believe it and follow the instructions.

Wow this is amazing!!
So sorry to hear about your son praying
My condolences 😢, my cousin ended his life 15 months ago, I can't imagine the pain of losing a child , hopefully you have been able to watch his rascals Flatts reaction by now, I too live with major depressive disorder.

That was very loving of your father.
This video was filmed at a school where I was living at the time and opened a discussion, and eventually better training across the board in our high schools. It helped a lot us get help.
He was 17 when he did this video. Yes he has a very deep voice. Try Scotty Mccreery.
The people left behind always feel guilty. I've been that kid in the back seat watching their parents crying. BTW... I saw that Blaine Larsen was 18 at that time, or around that age.
Such an amazing message.
I just want to thank you for being a positive influence in a world where people seem to be so self absorbed and selfish. Thank you, we need more people like you in this world. Thank you sir for your service!
It is a darkness I fight everyday. But my faith keeps me going.
Keep holding onto that faith!
Hold strong to the Lord and His promises! He always loves you.

My brother took his own life in 93 when I was 10. 29 years later and I still break down when I think about him. This song broke me when it came out.

If you haven't yet please listen to The Call by Matt Kennon
Josh Thran I second this song! Amazing video
I 3rd this song
I 4 this song
I 5th this song it was incredible
I 6th it
I know this video is 3 years old Billy, but this hits at home. I have been there and almost ended my own life last year. This video really means a lot, as I almost ended it over my ex-girlfriend. A year later I regret thinking that way as life is really special.
Glad you're still here with us. 🥰
Billy.. You have helped me so much. Your encouragement and words of empowerment.
My parents left me at a gas station when i was 13. I've been on my own ever since. At age seven I tried to killed myself.. Then again at age 15.. I'm a single mom of 4 kids and they are my reason for living. Thank you..
He may not have replied, but I'm glad you're still here with us and for your children. I hope all is well ❤️ if nobody's told you in a while you're doing good keep going I love you ❤️
Thanks for caring enough to fight for important things. Just found out that my son is struggling with this. This possible future scares me so much. Keep fighting the good fight cause people like my son need everyone fighting.
Aww man well I’m sending nothing but positive energy to your sons way!! And I hope he pulls through!! Thanks for watching!
@@BillyYouSoCrazy Thanks so much for the love vibe sent our way.😁
Keep doing what you do Billy. I watch you daily. I used to watch this video a lot. I have been in so many abusive relationships I felt this way. My God and my children kept me grounded. We all need to bring awareness to suicide prevention. God bless you Billy!!
Thank you!! Really appreciate it 🙏🏾
Having lost my brother to suicide this song HITS HOME...this song and THE CALL by Matt Kennon, and lately Christian music helps me cope...its been 20 years but it feels like yesterday....😭😭😭
It's 4 years later...it still hurts. In the last year ( 2023 ), I lost my Fiancée just before our wedding, my mom and my dad all in just about 4.5 months. I found out I had a heart attack and didn't know it and am currently being checked for prostate cancer. I want to be mad at God but it's not right...he gives us no more than we can handle and I keep on. I give praise to him and pray he guides me thru !!
Yes!!! Thanks for reacting to a song I requested. Unfortunately I couldn’t watch the video because I will just start bawling immediately
I lost the love of my life over 5 years ago to suicide and I have so much guilt because looking back now, I see the signs he was giving me. But at the time I didnt. As other commenters have said, thank you for taking time to make sure you speak out about the issues and put up hotline numbers.
I understand how people get that lonely, been there many times! My kids don't call, I don't know my grandkids, lack of job, this could be the anthem of my life!!
Hope you're doing okay. Maybe send them a postcard on every occasion. Even if they don't respond or call, at least they will know you love them. Sometimes it's the little things. May God bless you and be with you. ❤️
So my uncle took his life on January 3, 2019. Part of my attempt to wrap my head around it was watching this video that I saw as a teenager. He left behind 2 kids and didn't say goodbye or talk to anyone. So this was a really hard one for me to watch.
I just happened up on your page and started watching. Love your reactions to videos. Especially how you show true emotional feelings. Thank you for telling people there life is worth living. Lost a good friend of mine this summer to suicide. If only he had known how many people truly loved and cared about him he would still be here today.
I had that to fight that feeling ever since 6th grade but then I remembered the worst thing is when I a parent has to bury their own child
Thank you for spreading awareness. This came out just after I graduated High School and when I heard it and even now I hear it and cry because I absolutely know how one can get that lonely and I strive to make sure NOBODY ever feels that pain.
🥰
I have lost friends to suicide . I have been there myself where I didnt want to live anymore. I survived two domestic violence relationships. I suffer with PTSD. I so understand how people can feel like there is nothing left. :( Depression on top of it.. ugh . I'm still here.. struggling. but still here.
This song is one I played on repeat for a long time in 2009. From 2009 through 2012 it was the most played song by me. Lost so much in from August, 8th 2009 to may 11 2011 it had me in a dark place. Lost both my rocks in three years. But depression really has many people in very low places. It can be best but it's very, very hard. Thank you, Billy, you are an amazing young man and the world is a better place with you sharing everything you do.
Hope you are doing better. May God bless you; he is always with you. 🙏❤️
Billy your awsome watched a few of your video and because of your heart i have scribed im glad this video is still up.
I posted once before on your page and was hoping you would react to this video. One more thing, besides your service, that has gotten respect from me about you is that you speak your mind and stand up for the right causes. This video has personally spoken to me as one who has contemplated thoughts spoke about in this video. If it wasn;t for my family and true friends I have to say I wouldn;t be here today. Also please check out Fallen Soldier by SSG Nathan Fair.
Thank you 🙏🏻 being lonely is a real thing
You are awesome 😎. Thank you for being real.
I remember this song came out around the time a girl at my school passed from suicide. And luckily we live in a very supportive community so a lot of people attended the funeral.. and honestly it was more sad than funerals of family members I’ve been too. Her family was just devastated, I barley knew her but she crosses my mind often.
This song gets me right in my heart, one of my good friends in school Sherman took his own life. He girlfriend and I and him were all good friends. She broke up with him and he hung himself. He was an amazing guy. And everytime I hear this it reminds me of him.
Thank you for sharing this song!!!
I haven't listened to country in a while so I haven't heard the song or seen the singer, so I had the same reaction on that voice/baby-face thing.
This song has saved me more than once. 💖
Blaine and I were born the same year. He's 33 now.
This song came out in 2004. We were 18. It has always been one of those songs that makes me cry when I hear it. I haven't heard it in a few years. Man. I forgot how heavy it is. =(
This should have way more views based on the message alone. Nevermind the powerful message.
Great reaction and thanks for caring enough to help.
this songs just breaks my heart and shatters me every time I view it...well done, Billy
you put this song out on my birthday last year and i saw it on my birthday this year and it really helped me
React to “Angel Flight” will definitely bring chills
This makes me cry bc I have been at that point more then once in my life from when I was in middle school to only a few years ago, Only thing that ever stopped me was thinking about my family and friends.
Everytime I see a video with suicide as the topic, it hurts so bad. I have been affected by it in the worst way possible and I have contemplated it myself. I got help and I will try to help anyone else who might be thinking about it. There is always someone who cares out there. If you are hurt and don't want to go on, keep looking for that person. Thank you Billy for everytime you react to one of these types of videos.
Thank you so very much for reacting to this song. It's one of my favorite songs and videos ❤
Also thank you for explaining the blocked issue, I noticed it yesterday that a good handful of your videos are blocked for me (I'm in the US) so thought it was odd it was only specific songs.
@BillyYSC your videos always help me out with my depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Your laughter and honesty make me feel better and I'm truly grateful. Truly, little things like this make a difference.💖
Depression and this often go hand in hand. Bullying too! You sometimes just can’t see a brighter picture with you in it either your mind is telling you things or other people are. It doesn’t tend to make sense as to why yet you begin to believe what it is you’re hearing. After all if it is said enough it must be true,right?
At least that is my take on it.
Thankfully I have never gotten to that point. The lowest I’ve been was wondering if self harm would make me feel something I thought I was missing. Never did it just got this strange feeling around sharp objects in my wrist. I was smart enough to know that would only make things worse and would only help those nasty demon thoughts to grow stronger.
It can be hard to ask for help yet the bravest thing you can do is ask. Just ask those people who you know would help be it a stranger or someone(the people who are pushing you to be better, who truly love you) close to your heart!
Stay strong hunz!💕💝❤️
Respect the way you approached this. Hope it does help someone who needs it who is watching this.
I lost the love of my life he took his life 33 years ago. You never get over it. RIP Eddie.
I got that lonely several times. I was in a dark place for 7 years and I'm finally doing better.
Thank you I been so depressed of life thank you for doing this
Wow you’re welcome William! Hope you are doing better these days
This song makes me sob everytime. It helped me stay because I imagine my parents and grandparents being the ones in those cars.
This was written by Rory Feek. Such a sad song. I've been in that dark place, too. But I was so good at hiding it, nobody knew. But that made it worse because I desperately wanted someone to look close enough at me to see the pain in my eyes. Someone to say "I know something is wrong. Talk to me." But they never did.
Thank you for spreading awareness. I've had some very dark days where suicide seemed like an good idea.
Thank you for posting the way you do. Your videos always make me smile.
I love your honesty and your page tour amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️
The "And nobody knows" hit me so hard. I've been there, and it is a really, really hard place to get out of.
Been there too. So close. GOD be with You. I will pray for You tonight. Tell someone, please!
Bro. You seem like a good dude. I just found you and I saw your walk a little straighter song. I'm a little older than you. I had a lot of thoughts about suicide until I fell asleep and ran off of the road in 2011 and I woke up upside down on the roof of my truck. I still have thoughts about it but it's more of a what if instead of a potential to do it. You seem like you got a level head on your shoulders. This song actually came out around the time when I had a classmate kill himself. That class was so hard the rest of the year. I wasn't even really close to him but we were friends at one point. Seeing that empty desk the rest of the year was really tough... I don't know if you do a lot of country music reactions or if you have done this one yet, "what hurts the most" or "why" by Rascal Flatts are both amazing sad songs. "Three wooden crosses" I can't remember the artist Randy Travis I think. Of for a funny video "pray for you"by jaron and the long road to love
This song and this reality being a possibility is why I tell all my friends no matter what I will be here for you we’re not friends we’re family
Some times it just hurts so much that you just want it to stop.
Stumbled across this reaction today on my 36th Birthday and my baby brother 10 years younger than me took his life last October this song came to me instantly when he passed. Now I’m feeling guilty that I’m still here being older and he’s not.
Thank you for sharing this video and your thoughts and the contact info. My Dad shot himself almost 3 years ago. He was 89 and sick and thought he was doing what was best for my Mom and all of us. He didn't want to be a burden. I don't know how much longer he would have lived but I still miss him every day. Giving people resources is so important. Thanks!
3 years later still up. Glad for it. Respect to you.
2nd time I've watched this here with you - hits soo very close to home, spoken from a very manic depressive person...your message is very appreciated. It is really hard to keep from taking this action when you feel sooo so low and worthless.
Damn man, thanks I needed to hear that song.
THANK YOU BILLY, WE WHO SUFFER, NEED TO HEAR THIS MESSAGE❣😘
I have almost died 2 times from suicide, both times my husband came home way earlier than expected (our kids were gone, visiting family), he found me unconscious,(2nd time I was in a coma for over a week)and the 1st responders arrived just in time. I suffer from depression, while trying to fight suicidal thoughts, all of the time...It's hard for me because I live in chronic pain, many medical conditions, and have only 1 close friend(she's so busy, that we hardly ever get to talk). Most of my family's very distant, and during the times I did try to take my life, my marriage was in a horrible place, I was lonely, and living in constant horrific pain (even though I'm on major pain, and antidepressant meds) ...afterwards, I separated from him, until he also got help, and then marriage counseling (He was a secret alcoholic, he just got his 3 year chip from AA this year, and knows that if he ever takes a drink again; He's lost his whole family). We've been married now for 24 years, and we're now in a wonderful place...even better then when we were 1st dating/early years of marriage (Before he started drinking).
I'm still fighting with my depression daily, but I'm trying to focus on the happy times (past,current, and future)...Even with my quality of life diminished, in my early 40's, now with my husband, kids, and family, paying attention to the signs...and that I'm very open about when I'm struggling. I'm starting to have hope, and don't want to take my life...but it's a constant fight for me.
I PRAY FOR EVERYONE WHO'S FIGHTING WITH THESE ISSUES, INCLUDING MYSELF...THERE IS HOPE❣🙏♾💝✌
🥰🙏❤️
I love you billy so crazy! Good video and thx for reaching out saying we can message u when we’re feeling down :) you’re a good dude God bless you!
I went through this for a while after my mom passed and my leg got worse and had me in the hospital. Just had to surround myself with my best friends and family
I’m Sorry to hear that! Hope things get better
BillyYouSoCrazy kinda glad I got that low bc now I know how to deal with it Incase it happens again
I actually was the one who requested this and just realized today that you did this thank you so much
This is a very touchy subject for me and Allison a song ive listened to thousands of times... My father who raised me until I was 12 and moved with my mom committed suicide months after my sister and I moved and it left me with so many questions and anger and guilt and I had a rough life after that cuz it made me feel as if I wasn't good enough and everyone will always leave... I still struggle with it today even after 21 years but my kids have helped me through some of the dark times and I tell them daily how much I love them and nothing will ever take me away.
I went to school with Blaine and he had an awesome voice. I totally forgot about this song. My brother, that was 14 months younger than me, hung him self in March 30 2017. This hits hard. Miss him so very much and wish we could've takin all his pain away.
Sorry for your loss.
I had the letters written. But I got a single call. Thank you Bran. I would not be here today without you.
People go through this every day I talk too many kids like this or I used to I don't anymore but I just pray they're doing okay and my little light help them
So I grew up in a very volatile home and I have battled with depression & PTSD from an unfortunate young age. I clicked on this video cause I saw the thumbnail and recognized the song, knew I wanted to hear your thoughts on it Billy. Then as I'm listening I start to remember what this song meant to me growing up and when the lyrics "And nobody knows..." played tears instantly came to my eyes, it kinda took my breath away...I first heard this song in middle school during a very dark time in my life, when I'm sad to say I thought about suicide. I remember listening to it over and over for hours singing the words and sobbing. It was a relief to know that I wasn't the only one who felt that lonely and couldn't understand it myself. I felt like no one knew or cared and even though I'm an adult now and I've over come most of the things I went through... there are triggers and moments that pop back up that stop me in my tracks...but I'm glad I kept going. I'm so glad. Life is never easy but it can be worth living.. anyway I'm glad I watched this and I hope anyone out there who feels this lonely, keeps going. Thank you Billy! for the support and kindness you're an incredible guy! Hope you're Well!!
You should react to moments by emerson drive, why by Rascall flatts, skin by Rascall flatts, and walk a little straighter by Billy currington
Blaine grew up not far from me, in Buckley, WA! He's 33 now but when that song came out he was 18! Sweet kid!!
I appreciate your channel.
Just hearing what you say shines light into this dark world.
Every so often I feel this way, luckily I understand myself after years of my deep end of depression I can haul myself out, it's hard. I'm ready to go but I cannot. It will hurt the one who I love.
Absolutely love the honest heart felt reactions
The first time I became aware of suicide was when my aunt shot herself in the head ( she wanted to be with her mama who passed a year prior to cancer) I was around 11...then my cousin over dosed himself when we were in high school ... then my aunt overdosed...she was found facedown in her living room ... i had a good friend and another cousin who both took there lives last year along with my uncle ... this song for me is powerful ... suicide does not stop the pain it simply passes it on to your loved ones ... I have so many regrets and what ifs ...daily... it kills me ... I should have seen the signs ...I wonder if I could have saved them ... it's a horrible situation..my uncle hit me the hardest I was close to him.. he always had a smile on his face ...he would always say I love you ...he always made sure everyone was happy ...he hid his pain so well.. I had no clue he was hurting ... there was no red flags...I wish with everything in me that he would have reached out ...everyone deserves to feel loved and valued and that there life is worth living ...everyday and every person is a gift to be treasured
I've... tried before... for me it wasnt being lonely it was feeling trapped. It was feeling like all I did amounted to nothing. Like life was hopeless and endless. Every day was the same old same old. I promised my family I would never again after seeing how they reacted. We never told me littlest siblings but I will always remember my brothers reaction and the way he would not let me be alone for months afterwards. After that I thought even if I don't live for me I will live for those around me. Having younger siblings (I'm talking like a decade younger) and nieces and nephews made it easier because I don't want them to have to go through "your aunt killed herself." My life isnt just mine and thats what keeps me alive.
Thank you Billy for doing this reaction I lost a friend due to an overdose. It was just a hard day for everyone to know that he was gone and we will always remember him. My suggestion is to do Billy Gilman - One Voice for your next reaction.
Ive been isolated for so long, no one would notice and no one's life would change. How do you get that lonely? The darkness suffocates you.The silence suffocates you. The pain smothers you. And people do know. They just don't care, not until the day after. That is how you get that lonely.
He was 19 when he did this song. I remember going to the PX to watch him perform. He was born in 1986 and this song was out in 2005.
That's why I cry everytime I listen to this song I lost two close friends one I worked with one I went to high school with
I know I’m late but I really needed this. I’m going through a lot of shit right now and not having my family with me over seas sucks so much.
I'm 50 yrs old been fighting this all my life been bullied shamed. This song hits hard.
Blaine was 17 or 18 when this came out. I had a childhood bestfriend that past away when she was 19 or 20 maybe 21 she was in a car full of people and one of the girls who was in there they got into an argument, they pulled over got out of the car and the girl that she was arguing with pushed her into on coming traffic and she got hit by a car, she passed away a week later. I miss and think about her every single day!! Another one that makes me think of her is dont blink by Kenny Chesney. R I.P Haylee Jo I miss you and love you so so much!
To me, someone who struggles with depression, the line “How do you get that lonely and nobody know” is the biggest message
