I have lived in Berlin for over a decade now with my family. I choose the Spandau district where you are close to nature (western edge of city) and can always escape from the city chaos. The Spandau Center became very busy itself. Lots of people moved in here recently. I agree that commuting in Berlin can break you. No matter if it is commuting by bicycle or by public transport. If you are traveling through the center daily it is building up mental fatigue of passing by with so many people and so much traffic. I notice how anxious I become hearing all the loud conversations through phones. That just drags a lot of juice out of you. But this video also shows how various and interesting people you can meet in Berlin. This is a unique place to meet all the nationalities and very colorful people with interesting stories.
Thank you for your nice comment and sharing your own viewpoint on the struggles here
I'm from Amsterdam and I absolutely love Berlin as a holiday destination. Fell in love with it in 2016, its so huge, so much bigger than Amsterdam, I felt like I was in NYC.
I go to Edeka. Frau Edeka smiles and has a very positive spirit. :-) Come on... there are a ton of Germans in Berlin who have a great sense of humour and are warm. Saying this as a Brit who's lived here for close to 15 years...
Yes in my middle big town, more than 100 km from you this ,,everyday heroes‘ are often Angels without wings on Earth but Chefs, Boss, Institutions make many people have hope no more low self esteem etc and unfortunately THEY decide about too much situations
If you are white, it's easier a have a positive disposition. At least you don't get racially harassed at the supermarket
I lived in 4 different cities in Germany, Berlin was one of them. It was the first city I landed in since i came to Germany 9 years ago. It was huge and overwhelming for me, especially that i couldn't find a room. Despite that, i was very optimistic and loved the atmosphere, loved the people, and was so excited to make friends and have good experiences.. Now and after 9 years, i feel myself like a star who almost died off. I want to finish my studies and look for a job outside of this dark social bubble. I feel so appreciative to what Germany offered me and helped me along the way, but life here is like slowly committing suicide.
I grew up in Berlin until I was 20. Today, 18 years later I live in a small city in the south of Germany. I had a great time in Berlin, I used to go dancing so often, I went to the loveparade 5 times and things like that. But today, it would be no option for me to live there again. I would miss the nature, the clean air and the sunny days in the south. When I go to Berlin to visit family and friends I always see these depressed people, and also these confused people in the public transport. But anyway, I love Berlin!
Thank you for sharing your story 😊. Much greetings
Has anyone strange experiences with Altmark?? Or only me
It’s validating to hear I’m not alone who’s struggled in Berlin. I grew up moving around a lot, but it wasn’t until I lived in Berlin that I started experiencing anxiety and feeling very self-conscious thanks to the people being super mean. Like I didn’t feel people cared about how they affect other people’s feelings at all and I was considered “sensitive”.
Keep your sensitivity. That's what makes us human. I hope that you find your path to a better mental state.
@@TheMovementHub thank you so much, for this comment and the video 🙏🏻
I feel you Mexican guy! I came from Bogota, a cold city in Colombia 🇨🇴.
I love for now Berlin. Seeing the seasons. And, at the end, in winter I can read, study also work on my projects. Also see some people, try some bars. I don't like so much Summer. Too hot for me (Bogota is around 18° all the year, no seasons and it's rainy and cloudy, more than any European city. Also bigger than Berlin with 9+ millions and no subway, just buses)
If you have friends mentioned one of the speakers, but does anyone know how difficult is to make friends in Berlin?! Its very depressing, no doubt, people are frustrated and obviously for a reason. Night life, idk, when the weather is so awful, do you really wanna go party? Didn't want to sound too negative, but that is the mood in Berlin. The only good thing in this whole depressing environment, is that you can completely dedicate to your hobbies and passion, that is the only thing that can save you here.
You raise a valid point
Berlin - immer eine Abreise wert.
😂
I wanna give the Kyrgyz guy a hug!!!!
He is such a sweetheart
The spanish lady in orange and the mexican guy look so beautiful together. Loved what they had to say
Agreeed. And the chemistry between them was beautiful to watch.
Yes, it was very insightful. Especially Mexican about the "happiness".
Very interesting. I was born and grew up in Berlin and moved away 22 years ago. I felt good there. For 18 of those years, though, I couldn't imagine going back to Berlin. I cannot really pin it down, but the city somehow draws energy, a lot. However, I really missed the Berlin sky, especially in summer, while I was in Switzerland, Israel, Norway... And the seasons! I missed them so much while being in Israel! I think I like these different approaches to life throughout the seasons: you go out all the time in summer, enjoy the light until long into the evening, everything happens outside. And in winter you get comfy in your cave, meet close friends inside, it is more intimate...
While I was away, Berlin seemed to suck a lot of life out of friends from school times. Weird...
I have made similar experiences. Also born and raised in Berlin, and after moving away at the age of 19, I realized how depressed people in Berlin actually are. Many of my high school friends got lost in drugs, etc. I myself notice a drop in my mood and energy whenever I am back in Berlin for a longer while, but it's still home somehow.
Interesting. Berlin is one of the reasons I'm so happy. Sad that the thing that I love is the reason some people are depressed. (I'm 37)
I'm glad to hear that you are so happy. That's very positive news. Of course, the effect of a city depends highly on the person.
There is no sense of community in Berlin. If you do not have your true friends circle you can truly suffer of loneliness. Majority of people are very individualistic and everyone is looking after themselves in very egoistic way.
People neither want to help nor seek help.
One of the fundamentals of each human is to help and feel valuable and when this is taken away: at work , friends circle, partners, family, community and etc, the sense of emptiness is very big thus making you also depressed.
I thought I liked Berlin. I moved at the beginning of COVID. During the two years of peace, I didn't experience the real Berlin. Once I got to know the city, with its crowded places, constant rush, job competition, housing struggles, rubbish everywhere, visual pollution, drugs...and bad weather, I just want to leave!
I hope that you will find a nice place for yourself where you feel comfortable. Berlin is difficult for many.
@@TheMovementHub thanks a lot 🥰
tell me when your apartment will be available😂
@@Moe_L it's reserved to a friend, she's on the list 😂
everyone is depressed almost EVERYWHERE in the world nowadays. Let’s recognize the new global pandemic
It's recognized as such by the WHO since decades.
No, only in the hedonistic cultures. And they are all collapsing.
😄😄😄 my city is a happy escape for berliners (amsterdam)! the mexican guy's idea about balancing bad and good behaviour is very interesting, i had never heard that before
I love this guy 14:08
Dont take drugs.
Interesting answers from each one of them, especially the Mexican guy. Thank you for making this video and btw, I have the exact same globe "stress ball" that you covered with your logo :)
Thank you so much for your kind words, and I'm happy that you liked it. I agree, Guillermo has some interesting views on a lot of topics. And what a coincidence with the stress ball :).
The pathway between (Drugs, sex, alcohol) and (depression) is a two-way street.
The guy from Mexico is cool :)
His girlfriend from Spain is way cooler.
I lived in Berlín since I was 23 years old and now i am 33 and I am just leaving the country. After taking anti depressive and being sad all the time. The mental help here is a joke and it’s TABU
Unfortunately many people in Berlin feel that way
At the beginning, everybody likes this cyberpunk, dark/dirty style of Berlin but in the mid/long term, with addition of grey and cold weather and unhealthy habits, people all end up in the same common place, depression.
Some of these people, I wonder where they live :D
"Hectic" "Uncertain" "You don't know what will happen tomorrow"
In Berlin!?
"No social life because it is cold"
That is on you! There is so much to do in city in winter too!
That couple is so cute. :)
Totally
If sport helps you, you're just in a bad mood.
Where are the Germans?! 🤔😁
probably everyone has already moved away 😅 it's almost time for me too
@@Moe_L book a place for me too, cuz I'm also sick and tired of this replacement agenda !
@@aslanersoy8970lets move to eberswalde👀
@@Moe_L looks like a place to spend the rest of your life ...
Godspeed
😂😂😂
Berlin is ugly! That's the problem.
These guys have no idea what they are talking about...
i like the afgahni guy: 10:20
It's an awesome channel. Be happy and cherish your peaceful life. It's not so peaceful in some other lands. 💛🩵 Peace is priceless
Thank you so much for your words ❤️
