Therapist reacts to Solway Firth by Slipknot
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 лют 2024
- Therapist uses the lyrics of Solway Firth by Slipknot to discuss what happens when we vulnerably share our pain and it is met with disbelief and rejection. This often causes external and internal conflict that prevents the root pain from being acknowledged and attended to. Instead, we try to blame, defend, and deflect the other person's perspective, and our initial pain gets lost in the conflict. This song calls us to always come back to the root of the matter and tend to our pain.

#slipknot #solwayfirth #therapist
"You want the real smile, or the one I used to practice not to feel like a failure," is one of the most relatable and visceral lines I've heard in any song in my entire life....
I've got this tattooed on my chest. As soon as I heard it, it hit me in the chest. It's the most relatable line.
I hope you're well my friend
I have watched the music video many times, but watching it in the context of this therapist reaction hit me hard and made me cry at that point in the video, it just feels like my life
Exactly. This song hits me on so many levels.
Every *f* day of my life!
@@zorven me too
This song sounds so much like old school Slipknot. The pain in the voice is so real. Best song on the album in my opinion.
Definitely a throw back to the numetal Slipknot era with the anger and pain reflected from the 90s of those of us feeling disenfranchised with the state of society during that period, remember it all too well
this is NOT old school this is their second to last album but it does have the vibe. Also not the best song on the album but I will accept it as your opinion
@@decorummortis5175 1. I meant it sounds like old school Slipknot. My apologies.
2. I didn't know I had to specify that it was MY opinion but thank you for the feedback. Go back to worrying about others.
Dokładnie!
@@decorummortis5175 Was commenting same "old school", but I leave it here.
"Solway Firth" is the perfect metal song.
All the changes are so tasteful and keep you engaged the entire time. Even without the lyrics, the music is a rollercoaster of a story.
My favorite Slipknot song ever made.
The bit that hits so hard for me is how the chorus changes to "It wasn't somebody else, you ******** did it to ME". Anyone whose had their trust betrayed can feel that shit in their soul.
For real 😓
100% it's like slipknot wrote all their albums about my life birth to current.
I get chills when he delivers that line it just punches you in the gut.
Anyone who's had their trust betrayed was naive and needs to suck it up!
@@jessee7334 Tell me you need to go to therapy without telling me you need to go therapy
Holy crap she did not disappoint. This reactor is a gem that we need to cherish
She broke it down in ways that i wasnt able to express.. she felt it
The movie scenes were from the show "The Boys".
Which is also about things not being as they seam
Awesome F'n show! I haven't been that enthusiastic of watching a show like that since Breaking Bad and early seasons of American Horror Story. Discovering The Boys in 2020 saved my sanity during the lock down.
@@JMulvythe first couple seasons were great
@@orenthalsimpsonThere are only 3 seasons. Are there some that are not great?
I have 3 years clean off Meth and opiates. Your videos have inspired me to pursue my dreams of one day becoming a licensed therapist!!
Hell yeah I'm 3 years sober too same things
Fuck yeah 🤘🏻
Rock on!! 🤟
Awesome dude, hope you keep at it!
Proud of you, you make your dreams true🔥
Slipknot have helped me through a lot, for all you out there struggling, stay strong, It doe's get better, if you need help, speak to somebody, heck, speak to me!
Thanks for the comment. I just might hit you up on the offer. I'm not in a good place right now and it's not getting better
Yes it does keep strong
That last line hits me hard every single time. That's me. Fake smiles and laughs. I haven't smiled in Years.
From twixremix: @eyespyyourspy1328 hey friend, i’m so sorry that you haven’t been able to smile in years. the fake smiles and laughs are what some have to do to mask the pain to others but please know that i see you, i hear you, and i understand you. it can be so hard to feel genuine happiness sometimes. i’m wishing with all i got that something or someone can cross your path to make you smile and laugh. you deserve to smile and laugh! you have infinite worth and value and i’m so thankful you’re here.
From AliceBlue: @eyespyyourspy1328 I think it’s very brave and admirable to open up and put a voice to feeling like you’ve been having to put on a fake smile.
I know that in life I have had to put on a smile for show, so I can empathise with how hard you are fighting. It feels at times like if you break then everything will crumble down around you.
I hope that you find the space and the people who you can have a break from having to put the aires on for and feel authentically how you need to feel.
From Malig3: @eyespyyourspy1328 Hi there, I'm really sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. Faking a smile to please others or to make it seem like you are okay is really tough. I want you to know that I hear you and am happy you reached out. Holding on to the little things in life that make you happy or feel good is so important. Saying how you feel is the first step, so I am so glad you are here! I hope you come across a new hobby, friend, or even a show that makes you laugh. You matter, and you deserve all the happiness in the world.
Thank you all for real. Life is a very difficult road for many of us. I try to find moments and people I can confide in when things are overwhelming. However I've noticed the people who once were of qualities that were trustworthy have evolved into people who are easily triggered, find ways to make things about them, and have traded Empathy for Apathy. I have been in isolation since my circle of friends at the time exposed their true intentions and intentionally sabotaged my relationships with many people. I was always able to get along with just about everyone. When certain people find out you don't beef with people they beef with it tends to be a rough explanation of neutrality and loyalty. I just found this channel earlier today. Anyone who reacts to Slipknot gets a listen few get a sub. The sub was our hosts ability to explain things on the psychological level. I find that fascinating. I have always wanted to Crack into my own psychology and figure out why I am the way I am.
For me its the "You want a real smile, or the one i used to practice not to feel like a failure". That hits every time
I haven't smiled in years... such a powerful line
In Snuff he sings my smile was taken long ago
"You want the real smile or the one I used to practice not to feel like a failure"...
That last verse that returns to the initial pain fueled by all of the anger, and frustration from the previous sections of the song always hits me the hardest. I imagine that anyone who has dealt with that situation themselves will feel that part of the song the most. It gets me so tearful with rage while rocking out that it usually ends with a silent scream. ❤🩹
Listening to this song is such a great energy and emotion release for me.
Slipknot is Therapy & Therapy is Slipknot
This song is my comfort. It came out when I was going through my worst and you explained exactly how I felt at the time and still feel like most of those feeling are still around but won’t talk about it.
Thanks for reacting to this. So deep
I loved Slipknot since 2000 !!! They been my scream stresss reliever therapy band for 24 years.
I needed this so badly the past 25 years. A therapist explaining they why I related so deeply with Slipknot and how they were a voice I always felt was never allowed to be shared.
Oh my !!!!! You have just became my favorite #1 subscription to watch. #1 u love Slipknot . #2 so far u have nailed every song and the meaning I got out of it . Even opened my eyes on things I didn't see. Thank u
This song was a big part of me pulling out of my depression from my PTSD. My favourite slipknot song!
THANK YOU FOR DOING SLIPKNOT. i've watched every single one so far and looking foward to watch the next ones
gotta do "orphan"
probably my favorite off this album 🥰🎶🤟
This is one of my favourite songs and your interpretation of it was different to mine and I’m here for it! Thank you! Always love hearing other peoples interpretations and thoughts on songs. What an amazing channel.
I can't lie; I simultaneously love your analysis on the lyrics of these songs, but your reactions to the songs themselves and how heavy they are makes me smile. It shows that you really appreciate how the heavy parts just convey the intensity of the emotions put into the songs. Would be interested to hear your analysis of my band's most recent song lyrically.
I really love these Slipknot reactions especially since you also read up on the background info on the songs by Corey himself that's really neat.
Also as someone who's been struggling with phases of depression and axiety since the early school days these help me immensely to get back in a better mindset!
Man I love how excited you get on this song!! It’s epic!!
"I haven't smiled in years!!!!!!" - gives me gosebumps every time!
I was expecting your reaction to Solway Firth, and you didn't disappoint. As always, it is a very thoughtful and deep analysis. Spot on
Just finding your channel. Slipknot has been my go to for many years! To have it explained in your methods speaks volumes! Army vet and your words are methodical. Unlike what I received from many therapist, thank you! All hearts!
Slipknot is my favorite band and I regret I never understood the music until I've found these videos; the band always speaking to me.
I only know that in real life I've battled years of anxiety and depression- everyone always saying it was just in my head despite the evident fact that I've had people in my life who had it out for me and took every opportunity to tear me down. 7 years later, I still don't have friends who don't let me be honest and vulnerable
One of my fav songs from them. Your breakdown was fantastic.
This is one of my favorite songs, and your insight just helped me appreciate it even more. I can't go into detail, but I went through something terrible and nobody believed me for a while. It was really devastating and lonely. I definitely get catharsis from this song. Thank you.
been waiting on this one for awhile now ....TY for the reaction.
This reaction is so real, I could listen to just this one without end.
This is how I always listen to Slipknot!! Love Solway Firth and love watching her rocking out!
Seeing Slipknot live was an experience. One of the loudest concerts I've ever been to.
I’ve been waiting for this reaction. 🤌🏼
As soon as I heard this for the first time, the song hit me to the core. The words, Corey's vocals, the pain and anguish. You feel it all. I've listened to this song over and over and over and each time, it's hits hard. Easily my favourite Slipknot song
When I heard that last line for the first time, I cried so hard because it related so much that I haven’t smiled in nearly 14 years now.
Slipknot is my ALL time favorite band. They go DEEP in the lyrics.
her reaction to this is always so damn priceless, i think that is why i keep on coming back to see how she breaks down the music that keeps us sane
This is by far my favorite slipknot song. The anger, and pain from feeling like your problems dont matter to someone who is meant to care just hits hard.
Omg your face every time Corey screams is priceless 🤣🤣🤣 This is definitely one of my favorite channels, I watch you on my lunch breaks. I love your perspective on the songs, most people who aren’t into this music often don’t understand them
Slipknot are the masters of building up tension and then releasing it. It feels good! :)
Great reaction! But I'd really love if you reacted to "Finale". It's such an underappreciated gem in their discography that I think more people should hear, because of all kinds of reasons. Not to mention that the main theme would definitely fit the theme of your channel and would help A LOT of people. So please!
Love and hugs from Hungary for everyone who needs it! ❤
We love you ❤for this !
As a lyricist and vocalist myself I admire how Corey goes SO DEEP into how he's feeling in any particular song. It's so visceral and poetic.
I absolutely love what you guys are doing with this and I love Taylor for reacting.
My story; I recently went through a bad breakup and I have very little self esteem and self confidence. I've been very depressed and broken. Suicidal thoughts, solitude, and general detachment from my life. Slipknot has always filled that emptiness in myself when I go through my lows and have always cherished there music.
Seeing what Taylor is doing, seeing what this channel is doing to promote betterness. I am so grateful.
If I can make a recommendation I'd say react to " A Greater Foundation" by As I Lay Dying. That would seriously hit home for me.
40+ yrs of undiagnosed/under diagnosed living. This was one of a dzn songs I gave my latest therapist to listen to before we even had our initial meeting!!
Banger of a song.
Up there with one of Slipknots best.
Love your reactions, exactly how these songs make me feel when I first heard them. What a band
I've dealt with depression for a long time like a bodily illness it comes and goes. Sometimes harder than others, but recently it's been the worse. I lost my father last summer and I've been through the stages of grief repeatedly and have been having health issues myself. And I bury it at times with alcohol and drug abuse. I also am a musician and before music was my outlet to get out of my pain and frustration but lately its harder to connect to that creativity. The greatest thing is I do have people who love me and support me but they wont ever feel what I feel and that's not their fault. This pain is something that I have to fight internally by being better to myself externally. Never give up the chance to be happy and healthy. That's what living is for. Thank you for this video.
From djstarion: @robharley7539
VERY well said!
And I totally get where you're coming from too. I'm also a musician, and when you use it as an outlet, those emotions can get bottled up when you dont have the motivation or drive to get those out. One thing that I always did when I got in those moods was to just jot stuff down in a notebook. Anything I felt, whether it be words, pictures, random thoughts, just getting it down helps.
I'm so happy you have a support system too. <3
From AliceBlue: @robharley7539 “I have to fight internally by being better to myself externally”.
This will sit with me for a long time. Through your pain and hurt, through your creative block, you have pushed to not only be kind to yourself, but have set a reminder and example to others who are hurting and struggling that this is possible.
Betterment of self isn’t an easy path.
Sometimes the things that shape us are just so inflamed with all the pain and sorrow and grief. Those who are closest to us may not know how it feels, but there’s a solidarity in knowing we never truely walk alone.
Thank you for sharing your hurt and grief with us and thank you for sharing your bravery and resilience with us.
From EvilGenius: @robharley7539 Hi Friend,
First of all, I want you to know that I do notice you, and your strength in sharing your journey is visible for all to see. Dealing with any form of mental health, whilst battling through the loss of a loved one so close to you, is tough. This challenge may often feel like an uphill battle, defined to fail, but keep pushing through, because healing is the prize. However, I do know that navigating through the stages of grief can feel like an endless cycle of heartache.
It’s understandable that you’ve turned to alcohol and drugs as a means of coping, but I want to remind you that there are healthier ways to confront your pain. Seeking solace in your music is a beautiful outlet, although I understand that lately, even that has become a struggle. Please know that it’s okay to feel disconnected from your creativity at times; it doesn’t diminish your talent or passion. Every musician will have times where their passion runs thin, and they will end up questioning their ability. That’s okay, but what matters is that you never give up.
You’re absolutely right that the love and support of others, while invaluable, can never fully alleviate the depth of your pain. However, their presence in your life is a beacon of hope, a reminder that you are not alone in this fight. And while the journey toward healing may seem daunting, remember that every small step you take toward being kinder to yourself is a victory worth celebrating.
Your resilience shines through your words, and I believe in your ability to find light amidst the darkness. Keep holding onto the belief that happiness and health are within your reach, even on the darkest of days. You are deserving of love, healing, and peace, and I’m rooting for you every step of the way.
**With enormous love
EvilGenius**
this is one of my favorite songs on that album.. Corey really did it with this one
This song came out in the middle of me and my ex wifes divorce.. the song i thought what caused it to end but looking back this song was my escape. I came forth with an issue that happened to me as a child and she didnt beleive me. She coukdnt understand why certain tasks were difficult for me to do for our new born. It made me feel discusting and always brought back the sick twisted shit that was exsposed to me at a young age. And i woukd start having little anxiety issues when it came to my son. She woukdnt be there for wasnt there for and i had to not only figure out how to get theough it for myself, but now take care of my infant.. this song actually the entire album was my feelings wrapped up in one record. Corey taylor, i love you bro. Uve set me free in ways i cant explain. But if i had, im sure youd be the only one who undertood. ❤
I love your stuff
The band hellyeah has gotten me through abunch of stuff spasticitythe song hush
I relate in so many ways to that song
Keep doing what you're doing
This is how I’ve felt for nearly three years since I started having seizures. The two people I’ve been the closest with in my life and who have been my entire support system for nearly 20 years both got too busy to even text me back any more. In November I had another seizure and woke up on the floor of the bathroom at my work, laying in a pool of blood with a cracked skull. These two people I relied on for nearly half my life never even have a fuck that I cracked my skull. I could be dead right now and neither of them would know. I feel like I stared at my phone for three years waiting for one of them to just ask how the hell I’ve been doing. It’s been nearly three years and I’m just now cutting them out and alleviating the pressure, and I’m just now starting to feel like myself again.
Damn bro
I feel this. I had my first seizure at 35 with no answers so far in 5 years.
It’s awesome that you’re checking out Slipknot, they are one of my favorites. You really need to watch them live though!! Awesome!!
Loving your channel
Jesus Christ you hit the nail on the head. Such a great reaction I wish you were my therapist!
I love her reactions. She oscillates between Shocked, Hyped and Analysis.
I'm really enjoying these reactions, and the way you analyze and break them down. If you get an opportunity, A Liars Funeral is great!
Yesss one of my favorite songs, plus its uploaded on my birthday :)
Every word in this song runs so deep if you can relate, one of my favorite Slip Knot songs for sure. ❤ Birth of the cruel, Critical Darling and Nero Forte are awesome ones too.
Great reaction. You hear the pain in his voice and the music
One of my favorite songs ever.
I love you for the fact you get it. Maggots get a bad wrap but we all have some sort of pain or problem and there is literally a song for each of us. Thank you for understanding. Now you need to do disasterpiece
By far one of my favorite Slipknot songs. Absolutely fantastic Knotfest ‘19
This is my absolute favorite slipknot track hands down
*You knew she jammed slipknot during her high school days!* 🤣
Greetings fromMexico city, you earned my suscription, so thankful to you for explaining this beautiful piece of art that is to me, I am a maggot since 2004, and SlipKnoT lyrics and music has always been my way out, my therapy, apologies if my english is not quite welll.
Love how into the music Taylor gets 🤘
Been a Slipknot fan my entire life. To me this album is their best. I think lyrically and musically they hit their peak and it all came together in a beautiful storm.
The way his voice kind of breaks on " I will never go home!" hits me...
I've been dealing with depression for most of my life, and I've tried to end my life over stupid reasons, but everything changed when I got introduced to slipknot and the metal genre in general, music became my safe space and all emotion and the things they say hit so hard
As someone who grew up with Slipknot and has tried being vulnerable about my depression to various doctors, only to be met with doubt and a lack of empathy. I agree with how you interpret the song. I would add however, when we try being vulnerable to the wrong people and get angry. Its a gift in disguise. Humanity is mostly self centered. You can't show weakness to people. They dont care and they'll abuse you for it anyway they can. Much like this song explains. You become corrupt by rage and either implode or explode if you look for validation. Best to accept your cross is yours to bear. Any external assistance will make it worst.
You are really amazing keep on rocking to slipknot
The first time I heard this song, it was like I wrote it. Unbelievably relatable. I had a similar situation, and that was the last time I ever opened up about my depression. "You want a real smile, I havent smiled in years"
You broke me describing this song, I've loved this song so for long and don't think I ever understood until now
My favorite line is "you want a real smile, or the one i use to practice not to feel like a failure" so relatable
I totally understand this song as you have interpreted exactly how I feel..
THE BOYS/Slipknot equals badass love it!!!
Thank you for understanding us...
My favorite , not just Slipknot, but song overall in many, many years. My interperertation of this song fits and is so relatable to myself.
This song was originally uploaded July 22nd in 2019 in the evening.Best birthday present that year 😅
This is the pain loss he felt for Paul and joey! He finally released it!
This is one of my all-time favorite Slipknot songs...soo good.
The facial expressions are so funny, one of my new favourite react channels 😂
Personally I think this is one of their best songs, great breakdown of it
Wow thank you great video
"It wasn't somebody else, you Fucking did it to ME!..."
I relate to Soway Firth in a variety of ways ,plus ive been stuck in purgotory once in my life,so this song has more then just meaning to me it's feelings of my past
Her F'n expressions are priceless!!
Great reaction! Please more Slipknot!
Feel that way everyday, alone with my own thoughts trying to figure out the way, alone, laughed at talked down about me, asked for helped once and got punished for it, so now I stay silent for my protection, build the wall put up the fence with a sign warning don't try it, not worth the laughter from what I thought was care, betrayal and resent is what I know is real, pain is real when you reach out just to have it slapped away but I carry on with all my bags hoping one day it will end,,really glad I found you your channel feeling head high with your words, sorry for the inconvenient rambling, it's true so true,, thank you Taylor,,,
From beauty4ashes.loved: @shawntaylor939 Hi.
I'm a fellow HeartSupport Fan. Just wanted to let you know you are not alone in the way you feel. I'm glad you shared with us. Love your "rambling" :wink: (Actually, I don't think it's rambling at all.) There are people out there that care and are willing to help. I hope you find them. I think a lot of times people make fun of things because they either don't understand, or don't know what to do about it. Maybe you can put a window at least in that wall. Give yourself some hope of finding someone that can help, but still protect yourself? :blue_heart: Lots of love to you.
From Lisalovesfeathers: @shawntaylor939 Hello Friend, Thank you so much for posting. I think many can relate to the words you have written, we are sadly surrounded by people who are still ignorant to the thoughts and feelings of people that struggle with their emotions and or mental healthealth, I think for the most part it is unintentional buy that doesnt hurt any less when said.
I too am so pleased that you have found both Taylor on youtube and now Heartsupport, I would love t encourage you to keep opening up on our forum if you think it will help you, you will find us at www.forum.heartsupport.com you can write posts when ever you like, we are here to support, listen with no judgement. Lisa. x
From jpaga: @shawntaylor939
Hey,
You are not alone in how you feel - I think many of us have turned to people in hopes of support and understanding only to end off worse than when we started. The unfortunate thing is that those bad experiences do not apply to every single person - some people genuinely want to help us - but we don’t want to risk feeling hurt again. I do have to say though, that turning to yourself to deal with your issues isn’t inherently a bad thing. I would say that it’s a question of equilibrium. It is important to know how to cope with certain situations ourselves, but not to avoid reaching out to others for help completely. I think that you’ve got that first part covered, and it’s now a question of finding those that do have your best interests at heart. In the meantime, you have us! If there is anything you want to address or vent out, we’ll be there. Just don’t close yourself off completely from the idea of others being there for you, life is surprising and I have no doubt it’ll end up sending good people your way<3
From Micro: @shawntaylor939 You don't need to apologize for sharing about your experiences or the way you feel - you are absolutely welcome to do so right here. It's a safe space for it. :heart:
I'm so very sorry that you have been treated that way, especially after reaching out... it's so unfair. You did something brave by asking for help and none of what you said should have been mocked or dismissed in any way. For what it's worth from a stranger here, I highly value the fact that you *tried* in the first place because what you did was not wrong at all - on the contrary. There's no doubt that it must have taken you a lot of energy just to get to that point of seeking help, and the fall afterwards must have been absolutely heartbreaking. It's hard enough to share what's on our heart and show our vulnerable side to someone. It should only be met with respect and care.
You absolutely deserve to be heard and supported as you need, friend. It makes absolutely sense to want to protect yourself - and damn I've done that myself for similar reasons for a very long time. Still you have worth in this world and deserve to feel like you have allies by your side as you are carrying those heavy bags, for there are burdens that don't have to be dealt with just on our own. I hope with all my heart that you won't let this hurt condition your right to speak up in the future and build your own support system - at your own pace and in light of the hurt you've been carrying. What you were told at the time was the reflection of someone's inability to hear you... although it will never define *your* right to receive the help you need. You matter so very much. You'll always do. :heart:
Slipknot are awesome listen to them everyday
I’ve liked some of their songs through their entire career but never considered myself a “Slipknot fan” cause I’ve never gotten any of their albums. This song is so powerful and emotional and is probably my favourite song of theirs so far.
I am in love with this Therapist!!!
I've definitely had to work through close friends not being available, many for understandable reasons, during tough life events. Learning who you have to lean on, who you can return to being vulnerable or how to deal with the pain of rejection or a sense of abandonment in a darker time.
I've been a slipknot fan since the beginning
I have BPD or EUPD depending on what's fashionable these days. If someone were to ask me to allow them to experience what BPD is like when it hits you, I would give them this song in a dark room with headphones. The intensity it hits and recedes, the wounded quality and vulnerability creating fearful aggression. It is all there. The lyric I know I am never going home so set fire to your ships and regrets and be free, is the feeling of thirst for self destruction and conflict that disassociation always manifests as in me.
Thank you
