8 Signs You're Mentally Breaking Down
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 тра 2024
- You may have heard of the term ‘mental breakdown’ or ‘nervous breakdown’. You may even have been guilty of using these terms casually. The term is no longer used as a clinical term anymore by the medical community. And, a nervous breakdown is not considered a mental illness. Instead, it is generally viewed as a period of time when an overwhelming amount of stress affects an individual's ability to function. This stress can be physical or mental, and the symptoms of a mental breakdown can subtly sneak up on you and grow out of control if you don’t catch the signs early. So, to help better your mental health, let’s catch the signs early on and see if we can figure out together if you are mentally breaking down.

Thank you ❤
Thanks for making good videos
I'm feeling alright. How are y'all?
Pain and only pain
Im feeling pretty good. But literally a few seconds into the video and im already relating to what the lady said TwT love youe videos, though. It helped me reflect on myself
It’s scary when you click on this video thinking you’re breaking down, but after listening, you realise you already broke down a long time ago. 😞
Yeah, pretty much. I mean, most of those signs fit me since years.
Welp...
Why are we ALL like this? We all need help but we won’t get help cus of our lazy butts 😐
@@maggiesaich4243 It’s not cause we’re lazy. Getting help is a massive step that has a lot of stigma attached to it.
Plus there’s the ridiculously long waiting times for aid. I had to wait 15 months to get an appointment with a mental health team.
@@Raz-iw6fj Oof. 15 months is ridiculously long indeed.
But otherwise, yeah, pretty much. It's... difficult to admit that one needs help. Though I also am lazy, so there's that.
@@maggiesaich4243 One of the saddest truths is the system was never broken, it was designed this way. They want us sick, if not dead.
That moment when you realize people online understand you more than friends/family
God will bless you with someone today
Facts
Mine have no idea how broken i am. I moved away from them. I don't go anywhere.
@@chrissyroseup69 Oh yes, the God cares about us argument. It’s obvious in this world no one cares. We only care about ourselves at the end of the day. Your God is just a coping mechanism.
Yea and they blow you off and make it about themselves. I just stay to myself within my on head where it's safe and dangerous at the same time.
I clicked all well knowing I’m having a mental breakdown. I wish everyone who has to deal with a narcissist good luck. You are gonna need it.

This hit home. My mental health has been slowly declining from the stress of school and my parents, and I realized I had a mental breakdown in the middle of class a week ago.
Please don’t stay silent about this ok even if you’re afraid of upsetting people. Keep speaking up.
I didn't have a breakdown yet but I think I will slowly have it
Tip:Don’t be as dumb as me and just tell it instead of fake smiling Becouse I am

Never reveal to anyone that you have any mental weakness or they will use that against you for the rest of your life. Facts
If I shared some of the thoughts and feelings that go through my head, they'd lock me in a cage.
Sounds edgy as fk but it's just SO true
Sad but true
"This is going down on your permanent record".
Nothing good ever comes from that, surround yourself with people who are willing to understand and hear you out.
Shaking a soda and putting in the freezer isn’t ever good, so why do the mental equivalent of that?
Hope you’re in a good place since this comment bro.
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, dr.sporessss I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac.
He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Is he on instagram?
Yes he is. dr.sporessss

I think I need a two break from everything 😂 I need to go Mexico
@@francisco_2024 hey man remember things are always changing. It’s ok not to be ok! Those thoughts in your head are just thoughts and they manipulate your mind to stress. I’m not a physician and these are some things I’ve realized along the way. I’ve been dealing with this stuff for 44 years.
Remember you are not a fortune teller. You cannot predict the future and you cannot change the past but what you can do is live in the moment, and to be honest that’s what everyone has the ability to do. Live in the now. (Look into that). Things do get better. I can tell you this, you will look back on this time in your life and see how you got through it. Everyday is a day forward not backward. Struggles will happen and success will happen but those things don’t define who you are.
Sooooooo many of us are hurting or struggling and a lot of those people who appear like they aren’t, are!!
So bottom line, see a doctor if you can, don’t be hard on yourself, give yourself some credit and know you are not alone by a long shot!!! Peace and love always brother.
Perhaps losing the job was the universe telling you to pursue a dream of yours. Being in the wrong type of work environment certainly doesn't help when it comes to mental breakdowns. Just know others are here for YOU too.
Hoping you are doing better by now, I've checked all the boxes for a few years now.
Unfortunately, I've had all 8 of these symptoms throughout my life. I've seen many therapists and psychiatrists. The medications have been a hit or miss, and most of the time, they quit working. Things got really bad in 2017 with the loss of a child, and then I lost both of my parents in 2020 and 2021. I took care of them and stayed home with them, till there death. It takes a lot out of you, especially, when you have mental illnesses and are already rundown. I'm fortunate enough to have my wife and two nieces and my animals (they are very therapeutical). I'm diagnosed with bipolar 1, panic disorder, GAD, insomnia, and PTSD and right now financial issues are killing me "literally". I'm always scared that I may end up in the psych ward, hospital, or even both. I'm doing my best to keep going forward, that's really the only option...other than giving up, and I hope that never happens. I have to be here for my loved ones and also, my animals. Some days are worst than others, but no matter what, I will keep pushing on and always keep busy. To all who are struggling, I know it's very tough but keep pushing and I wish you nothing but the best 🙏 💙
Hang in there my friend.
Don't give up. 🙏🏾❤️
If you have a wife than why are all of your videos a kid playing Roblox?

I have a similar story. It's my faith in God that sees me through life. Jesus is my everything!
"I think the saddest people always try their hardest to make people happy because they know what it's like to feel absolutely worthless and they don't want anyone else to feel like that."

It’s so hard to take time for yourself when school gives you no choice. :(

I feel this 😣
Haha bro this comment got liked 10 more times straight when I liked it.
I suffered severe mental disorder years ago. I could remember several years ago after divorce with my wife which brought me into my disastrous journey on Alcohol and cigarettes. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with OCD. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Australia. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
Hey! Yes Dr.benfungi
Mushrooms are very medicinal. This is why anybody familiar with psilocybin and any other kind of fungi will tell you, "They are alive." They have a very ancient wisdom. To my experience, all mushrooms have always said, "Pay attention to your life. How you think, how you feel, and what will you do with the information that you always knew, but now are seeing in this point of view." This is why mushrooms are so respected in tribal cultures. This mental health treatment works for me too. Half micro doses do the trick for me. At least a few days at a time with lengthy time in between. Never addictive. Thank you for sharing this point!
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
I think this video is pretty much outlining a baseline for a lot of us. We’ve all been through so much over the last several years and it feels like it’s non stop. Any new stressors that happen in our lives are added on top everything else (politics and the pandemic and everything it brought with it) which was A LOT and it has affected all of us in some, mostly traumatic, way. It’s like things that we used to be able to kind of deal with are not so easy anymore and it all adds up quickly so we have to really decide to let go of what we can and allow ourselves to heal and move forward. Just remember, whatever is happening, it’s temporary. We are still who we were yesterday and we will be tomorrow as well. Keep loving yourselves and take it one day at a time or even one hour, one minute, one second at a time. Most of all, know that you are not at all alone.
Well said. Sometimes I forget to remind myself to live in the now, and get myself feeling so low, and helpless because Fate has been throwing some serious crap at me, and reminding me that I really have little control over my own life. If my brain isn't ruminating about the (fairly recent) past, and what it has manifested, I'm feeling terrible for allowing myself to be going thru everything she mentioned in the video (except too much sleep), which all leads to anxiety about the future.
One of the many things that happened was I was wrongly fired, and they've lied to make sure not to even let me get unemployment.
I'm trying to live the cliche's; Trust the process, Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, strength to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.With homelessness looming only weeks away, that little flicker of hope that things will work out...sometime there is no light.
I'm going through all of these but i really wanna hug this cartoon right now it's so cute :)
All we need is love. It's the only cure..❤️

Teachers don't want you to die. Though there are some teachers who do feel that they themselves want to die due to the system asking for too much during a pandemic. Trust me. Teachers are overwhelmed too. Just do your best and don't give up. The best teachers are those who are flexible and understanding of the situation. It is hard on all of us. Best wishes.
I am in a dark
Hole. Lord help me please. Eating so little and crying and over sleeping.
I know I've commented this on a lot of your videos, but seriously, thank you. No matter how hard life is, hearing your soothing voice and insightful commentary really helps.
I seem to keep cycling between good and bad: it gets bad, I focus on my mental health, and slowly get out of the hole I'm in. Work stress picks up, and a few months later I realise I'm back in the same hole I just dug out of. Definitely scary going into this video thinking you're going to find symptoms to watch out for, only to realise you've been battling with this heavily over the last few months and it's already too late. Thank you for also making videos on how to improve mental health, your videos are (literally) life saving.

Same-
Same here, feeling it today
I started crying randomly in the kitchen the other day and I was so confused and scared. I sometimes have blackouts and forget long stretches of time, and come back crying not knowing what was happening, but the time hadn't changed much.
@@ace_of_cups4096 oh my god defenitley get a consultation from your doctor and a therapist. I hope your okay. Also don't stress about it but I would recommend cause that sounds bad.
@@bobakitty4147 I wish I could do any of that, but my doctor is all but worthless. They think I'm faking an injury in my sternum and told me to take 1800mg of pain killers a day to 'heal it', they think I'm faking my anxiety and my depression because of the fact that it was barely noticeable before I lost my emotional support animal, they think I'm faking my constant migraines every morning that nearly leave me crippled in bed, and they think I'm faking my hurt ankle which, although the x-ray says otherwise, feels broken.
If I go about my blackouts, and random bouts of crying, they'll call bullshit the same way my parents did.
And we can't afford a therapist, or I would gladly do that.
I feel tired, numb, frustrated and sad all the time. my chest hurts along with my head, and my room, body, and, mind are a wreck. I look in the mirror and feel more tired every day. but than I watch this. That one deep breathe brought me peace that I only feel when sketch. This channel has been a real blessing for me in all honesty. Thank you

When you give up food for just a moment of sleep, when going to church (which I love to do normally) is too much, when arthritis pain (which is normally easy to deal with) is just plain agony, I think I'm in trouble.
“You may be using sleep as an escape from reality.”
That’s me in a nutshell. I love sleeping because I don’t have to think or feel much. If I feel anything at all I just feel peaceful bliss
You're fortunate you can sleep...
Find something peaceful to do when you're awake. A moment just for you.
Literally same it might be the only way I get away from life
Same tbh :( sleep is the only part of the day I can relax and not be forced to do something or act a certain way
But then I have extremely scary nightmares
Not lying, I literally woke up a few times because of panic attacks from the nightmares
I should probably stop watching horror stuff and playing games with a horror and creepy theme, I'm just attracted to... dark stuff I guess-

I think I've already broken down, the hopes and dreams that I had when I was growing up; well, the time for that has passed me by, unless all the pieces miraculously fall into place real soon.
You *HAVE* to accept the _now_ as the foundation for the future, not what was in the past. Please listen to this carefully. I know exactly where you're coming from...
I know it's easier to say than to do but I know you need to hear it.
Even if it's something you can't change, be aware. And be lenient with yourself. Please.
Nearly all of this was me late last year.
I was under immense pressure from work (Covid ramp up) 2 years running at 130% load, and having medical issues i was working through with specalists, then one phone call from a client just pushed me that little bit too far, and i broke. Thankfully my company supported me, and sent me home. Took 5 weeks off, with lots of talking to the company HR, who is trained in Physocology.
It was an experience i don't wish to go through again.
Didn't leave the couch for days, found it hard just to make something to eat, then not being able to stomach the food.
When i was ready to return to work, slowly transitioned back in, with a few half days, to then a few days a week, then eventually back to full time.
Looking back on it, you can see the writing on the wall, but when you are living it, it's not so easy.
Seems like too many people are feeling bad these days. At the same time, it's comforting to know we're not alone.
The Invisible Man, living in a cruel and dark world makes us feel drained. It's called civil unrest. Stay blessed and safe 🙏.
It is hard for many to get help if they have been burned by an irresponsible mental healthcare professional. I council a few people that have this valid fear that became downgraded to second class citizens, whom lost rights and needed help to get that remedied and the worst case of this was a 3 year journey with the individual, to restore their rights just because of a misunderstanding on the part of a so called professional that wasn’t listening well enough and made assumptions and even breeched well established protocol. Getting help can be dangerous but it shouldn’t. I clean up messes for people that found that out so I know.
you make me cry. I'm so sorry that a lot of people here are feeling bad and sad. But I keep telling myself "it's just a phase"
I am wondering for long now...
Are People really worse off, or is it rather that we just now start to learn about it?
I’ve grown up simply believing that no one cares about you or loves you it’s just you and your thoughts
“Don’t go on your phone before bed”
Me watching this video before bed: well fuck

Thank you for this video. For decades I have been suffering from migraines and a sensitive stomach. I also just discovered that I have a hole in my heart that was misdiagnosed as juvenile epilepsy when I was a kid. Now I am needing to make sure my physical and mental health are properly seen to before I can help other people. Saying No has always been difficult however I am learning to say it so that I don’t take on too much.
It can be very difficult to not only say no to requests for help but it can be even harder to make it stick! It has taken me 2 fricking years to break people of the habit of always turning to me for help and assistance!! But once I learned to say not, "no, I can't" but "no, I won't". An important distinction you will find. It was an odd sensation when I realized a few months ago that my phone had become very quiet of late!!
I enjoy helping others but I found myself ALWAYS helping everyone, from being woken up early to come give somebody a ride to school or work, running full-tilt boogie all damn day and finally getting home to rest for about half an hour and maybe eat something (I am a diabetic) before the phone rings again for the help it seems only I can provide.
It was very difficult to make others accept my refusals! The guilt trips and the tears, the constant phone calls from angry people wanting to know why? You did it before!! The yelling and the begging were painful to hear and yet, I stuck to my decision to STOP! I had to keep reminding myself that the World will keep turning, the winds will keep blowing and that my refusals ARE NOT THE END OF THE WORLD!! Not for the folks I turned down or for me!!
And now, I try to remember to stop several times a day to appreciate the quiet of the phone, the time to work on projects that have meaning for me without interruption and finally, finally being able to eat like I should!! Or even take a nap!! (Yes, I'm that old) Just the freedom to structure my life and day as I wish is BLISSFULLY BLISSFUL!! I highly recommend it!!
It's nice to be needed. It's very nice to not be needed either! Folks have managed to locate alternative sources of help that have absolutely nothing to do with me, my truck or anything else I foolishly consider my private property!!
An experience I highly recommend to you!!
It was just discovered that I also have a PFO. I went to the ER with stroke like symptoms and the doctor diagnosed me with complicated migraines. He did a bubble study and found a small pfo. I have also had ibs my entire life. I am with you on the setting boundaries thing. It’s been hard to deal with the constant dizziness and fear of what might happen. One day at a time I guess. Best of luck to you. Sending calming vibes your way.
Oh gosh, migraines. I deal with non-stop headaches that vary in intensity throughout the day. Please stay strong, and please find a good doctor that cares about you and your quality of life. I have other disabilities, so I’m pretty well acquainted with the corruption in the medical field, but I highly recommend private practices - the doctors and nurses there TEND to be less judgy and more willing to help you in whatever ways they can.
Great videos, helps me not take onboard what people say or tell me what is "normal". With knowledge I have choices and to take care of myself, better interact with others.
Summary:
1. You sleep too much or too little
2. You show signs of anxiety and depression
3. Brain fog
4. Poor hygiene
5. You withdraw from social events and friends
6. Difficulty breathing
7. You feel physical pain as well
8. You suddenly eat too much or too little
Please make sure to reach out for help if needed.

I feel like this video just came in the perfect moment
I'm really wondering... How the f*** does anybody keep their life together? I can't find a job, can't have a social life, don't want to freaking sleep cuz I'm afraid of my own dreams or nightmares, can't find a reason to want to wake up or stay out of bed... How do you people live with all of that? I feel I'm literally unsuitable for living
You spoke what's going on with me.
On same boat
LoL! I've got the exact opposite problem with the same symptoms, but worse! Got a decent raise, full time work with overtime, car etc! But here's the catch! I'm 62 and on meds for a blocked artery! Side effects;
Brain fog; I can't concentrate but can do my job because my normal was above average!
Lowered inhibitions; I spout off things one might think if slighted instead Of biting my tongue! That combined with aggressiveness which I didn't have before! I think of things someone might do to slight me, get mad, then realize they haven't slighted me in the first place! LoL
And the worst for last I mumble my thoughts rather than just think them when pissed due to the meds making me aggressive! LoL.
I've got to walk this minefield for three more years to get my pension! I'll be glad to retire and have peace! I'm not like this when left alone! Anyways hope you feel better soon! I will in three long years! Lol One more thing!
I've had this constant ringing in my head for three years since I first got sick! That's got something to due with my aggressiveness I think! This is a lot to handle when I've been healthy all my life then bam! Anyway sorry to depress you more! LoL take care!
"I feel I'm literally unsuitable for living"
Same. I stopped attending therapy because I got tired of making matter-of-fact observations about myself and my situation and seeing the guy sob.
Same, for me I feel like everyone has a purpose or something to do, and even if they have ups or downs they’re still bettering themselves. And then there’s me with no purpose, and good at nothing. I don’t even think there’s a point in me trying because I feel like I’m destined to be nobody
Her voice oddly makes me feel safe. it’s a calming presence, like a warm flame in the darkness.
Or like a warm flame in the winter
It's pleasant, but makes me wonder how many times the proper dose of Ambien she's on.

This video had reminded me of all that has happened with myself these past few years, and does help me feel like I'm going to make it through life, especially with knowing how many others are like this, but at the same time, I feel really bad for everyone who has gone through what they have, and just to let you know, I'm writing this while holding back over a year's worth of tears, so, I hope that everybody is doing well, and is currently getting help with their problems
Thank you for your empathy. Hopefully something shifts to the positive for us soon. Peace be with you.
Jesus christ. We'll never meet but I know where you're coming from and I don't know what to tell you.
We need to write down the positive things that happen, I think. That's the only thing I can think of.
I'm getting help, but being helped doesn't _help_ that much. It's so hard. I'm so tired of being tired and I'm so tired of fighting. I won't stop but I'm so tired. Exhausted... I wish upon you the best of fortunes and I genuinely hope anything good that can happen to you will happen.
I wish a reckoning and/or an afterlife would exit, that would suit people like us perfectly. We can only be brave and keep trying to improve the lives of people we care about or who we think deserve it and try forward as good a message as we can to future generations.
We're but drops in the ocean but the butterfly effect does exist.
Who are we to wish for solace at the behest of others?
All I wish for is some peace of mind before I die, I write as a tear runs down my left eye.
I hope everyone here gets their peace of mind sooner rather than later.
There must be some answers and some solutions to some things out there and I hope you all find them as quickly as possible.
We need good people, so you have to keep fighting. Please.
@@SebHaarfagre nice speech, I’m writing this at nearly ten A.M. while needing to write a story I haven’t even thought about until this very hour and haven’t even started and it’s due tomorrow, I haven’t slept in the past 30 hours, and am pretty sure I have a concussion, so how’s your day been so far, we can share stories
Yeah been feeling down lately ,especially being around the narcs in my family ,my mam ,i get headaches when im around her ,wish i could get away ,will keep praying for god to make a way ❤

Plot twist: All of us here are having a mental breakdown.
I just had it now and UA-cam recommend me this.
Ya
I had a mental breakdown yesterday-
Because of failure.
That's probably stupid for the most people but I'm so afraid to do failures and I broke down but no one came to check up on me and I overthought everything. Like is it wrong or right to eat sweets,is it wrong or right to cry because of this and all that.
Some people heard me but didn't do anything and once I had a panic attack in online class and while i tried to breath I wasn't mute and no one tried to help me. Just my only friend in class texted me and tried to help but my math teacher said: "Is someone with you in your home?" "Yeah my mom." "Go to her and let her help you." And I couldn't walk without breaking down and the teacher just normally did his lesson like nothing happens and I felt so worthless and like a burden and this made me feel so worse
Sry that this is so long-
I just kinda needed to vent,again sorry
Hi army.. I think about BTS it makes me fell better u should try it
@@kiwitiki7992 oh armys gathered together
I think 🤔 I have been breaking down steadily since I was forced to retire early about 3.5 years ago! I have good doctors ; it’s been hard to contact them with the pandemic and all that. Had to retire due to three chronic health problems 😪 , and have discovered two secondary conditions 😢 linked to them. I take my medication as recommended, but it’s discouraging when I’m trying to re-enter the workforce. I’m active in my ⛪️, but nobody talks to other people around me, people rush past me, and at my age- it’s hard to find new friends! Most of my family 👪 has passes away in the last 15 years. I am in constant pain and this affects everything I do !
Every once in a while I come back to this channel, and I'm so glad that I do.
Sometimes you just need to break down to have all the pieces you need to build yourself up again.
Indeed
agreed
me after: Epic FAIL
Having a breakdown can be what is needed when it is safe but sometimes breakdowns can be violent experiences that you go through. They can put you in life or death mode.

Your so right!!people tell me I have a very big heart when it comes to helping people. I always wondered why. Probably because I was abused like an animal when I was a child.weird the way that works.
This is so true
yeah..I wish they would understand that
Thank you that made my day
I've got severe anxiety and my sleep is absolutely destroyed I can't sleep at all. I feel I'm never going to get better
This is something that was along time ago I’ve gone passed this now already started planning on next step good luck everyone 🎉

I hope more people watch the documentary "Robin's Wish."
It tells about Lewy-Body dementia. Most diagnoses are posthumous because victims hallucinations are so frequent and powerful that they end up commiting suicide.
It's incurable and progressive.
Robin's life changed a lot of people, and it would be a fitting tribute if his death could help others.
Thanks for reading this.
Stay strong.
@@eddierayvanlynch6133 ooh yeah about Lewy-Body dementia, that reminds me of a book I read before called What Comes Next by John Katzenbach where the main character was diagnosed with it, the story was really good
And he wind up killing himself... I don't know, this seems to be...Not a good example
@@missnobody3400 -
Watch the documentary and you'll see why this quote from Robin is so appropriate for this subject.
Godspeed to you.

@@missnobody3400 There was a "terrorist" inside his head
"Call someone"
Every introvert ever: But what if I said, *no*
*m e t h o*
"Call Someone"
No, I dont think I will
I'd call someone to come do my chores so I can hide.
That's all I want: to hide.
Also hard to call someone when you have no friends and you really don't want to bother anybody with your issues anyway. Because inside your own head you think whatever issues you have do not matter at all because all the others have it much worse and they're doing fine and I'm just weak...
@@TheBubbeloo Oh no, honey, not weak. I doubt anyone will think you're weak.
It sounds like you've got conversations that want to come out. Let me start: Who do you like better, Ginger or Mary Ann?
I was literally startled when I heard "Difficulty breathing". For the past few days my breathing ability has been perfectly fine, but it doesn't feel like I'm getting enough air. I've been waking up from sleep because I forget to breathe. I've been told it was anxiety. I do have a history of anxiety disorders like crippling OCD, so it makes sense.
i just signed up for better help (online crisis therapy) this evening. i clicked on this video to see if i matched any of the symptoms. i only learned i broke down and mentally isolated myself 14 years ago.
Me: has all 8 signs.
Parents: Ur just over reacting on things.
😂😂😂 100% true
Same... my mom isn’t believing me☹️

Hi.. Time traveling once again, as a non-member. How's your day going, everyone?
what????

been well, wbu?
Heyy

The narrator has the perfect voice for this type of video! Thank you!!
I was there in May. I wish I found this then. I had a little mental break down with crying on Mother’s Day Eve, after a school year of nonstop drama and it lasted into that morning of Mother’s Day. AWEFUL!!!
As a kid, I was happy and thought I'd never become depressed.
Then reality kicked in
Reality is what you make of it, is subjective to each person. “Reality” is relative
no then we became an adult....
yeah. other grownups are the real dream killers. Kind of like crabs in a bucket, always pulling back down the adventurous one.
Same. I also thought Id never stuggle with not eating because I loved food so much.
And here we are.
yo- dude- you alright- is reality ok-? im only 10- should i be scared-
I almost cried myself to sleep once cause a thought clicked in my head that was "nobody ever goes to YOU to talk YOU always go to THEM, they don't want YOU or they would go to YOU" I'm still struggling with this
I get that.
Or they always come to talk to you about them and never you
@@brandywine4000 yeah that's happened before
Yeah, I feel that.
My friendships summed up in one comment lol
Tbh i went through a phase of slight depression and my mental health was breaking down but all i needed was to figure myself out and a little bit of determination. I still have a long way to go but i have been slowly exercising everyday, brushing my teeth everyday, showering everyday, and more! Just know that your not alone and just the tiniest things can help you get back up again!
This channel makes me know more about myself ❤ and the importance of mental health because if you are mentally unwell, then no matter whatever you may have in you life like; money, good friends, supporting parents, good school, perfect jobs and all other ,you will still lack satisfaction and positivity which can Also put a huge effect on our determination and consistency of our hardwork. ❤ This channel makes us feel like a home.
I feel like I shouldn’t be feeling this way since I live a normal life with no struggles at all. The friends I made are really caring, and my parents try and find ways for me to put my energy towards helping me get better. But I have these outburst every few weeks for no apparent reasons. Which feels like I’m constantly letting my peers around me down for feeling these types of emotions and I feel like a total butthole afterwards. Also to everyone who is reading this I’m sorry for wasting your time. I just felt like I needed to get this off my chest cause I usually keep to myself.
Hey Atama: I would like to say that there MUST be an underlying problem. In my case, mostly it is about the way I was raised as a child. Additionally, another problem is and has been since birth, a valid symptom of addictive behavior. I am now and have been since 2012 an accreted Chemical Dependence Specialist. CDS Sporadic behavior should be addressed a.s.a.p. If you can find the cause......(end of story) Respectfully & Sincerely I remain, Mr Holliday (In Los Angeles) CDS .
noooooooo are you kidding me , you are not wasting time . i love the fact that a lot of people are just trying to express their feelings online. by the way i have the same problem
I feel the same. Sometimes I have to remind myself I'm human too and deserve to feel bad but at the aame time I think that I'm ungrateful for my own privileges, I can eat food 3 times a day, has a roof over my head, clothes on my body, etc etc. So I feel like I shouldn't complain.
Who said your wasting my time? Although I'm in the middle of crying my eyes out due to all of my other problems, the one thing thats always been a constant my mine was listening to meaningful words of tohers.
I have plenty of time. Your problems and feelings are valid.
things have been going wild and overwhelming lately, to everyone whos currently struggling, please know, that when the time come, it will get better. I dont know when or how, it just will get better. Take rest if you feel like you need to, take care of yourself, clean up your room, eat properly and stay hydrated. I am wishing everyone seeing this a pleasant day and a happy life ahead ❤️❤️

Thank you so much you have no idea how much this helped me (:
3 moody and anxiety episodes during the weekend. I feel crap
God bless you.
This video is a wake up call for me. Thank you so much for this sign.
The pain one was eye-opening, i know I've been mentally crushed for years now, these videos are more like bingo cards for me, but i didn't realise my daily headaches were a part of that.
I've been sleeping a ton to escape my anxiety. The worst feeling is waking up, feeling a bit better, then remembering the thing you're worried about. I really want to take a few days off from classes to recover my mental health, but I'm afraid my work is going to pile up. :(
I relate to this a lot. For me, it's because of all my deadlines that keep piling up. I feel like i have to rush to stay on top of my workload or else i'll drown.
But yeah, you're not alone. We'll get through this.
I can understand that. Highly.
This is so relatable tho-
I need like a break after a break for things
Like I need a break to just crash and recover a little
Then I need another break to be able to catch up on stuff and prepare to go back to school
I’m getting crushed under the weight of everything right now
oh god I feel this so much
Yeah I understand you...
Take care of yourself sweetie, the other things don't matter ❤
"just don't watch tv or get on your phone before bed."
me watching this at 1 am:
I relate to this at an unhealthy level
Lol was looking for this comment
"Well maybe I'll learn this today right now!-"
don't watch in bed
"fUUUU-"
Advice for you to go to sleep earlier. A lot of people stay up late because they are on their phone. I say to myself "if you wake up earlier then I'll have more time to do stuff." Then think of the things you want to do tomorrow. Hope this helps 😊
i literary saw an online concert a few days ago and ended up going to sleep at 6am so i got 3-4 hours of sleep it doesn't help that i usually go to sleep at 2-3 am (and that i wake up at 8am cuz im to tired for 7am).....im not ok 🙂
You sound so friendly and nice, already helped me
Thankyou for this video ,i been feeling all the things you mentioned and i get angry quickly (i used to be a patient person )i was wondering why i was feeling the way i do ,now i know i hope i can sort myself out before i fall any deeper
"Just dont watch TV or get on your phone before bed."
Me who literally watching this at 6 in the morning withouth any sleep: 👁👄👁
lmao same，right now it's 7am for me.
Me too lol
I feel attacked
Me too.. 6:45...
For the past like 5 years or so ( as long as I can remember) I have been watching utube before I go to be to settle down 👀
I have no choice but to isolate myself. My husband died nearly a year ago and I’m insanely lonely but I don’t crave human companionship because I never really did. The only person I want to hang out with is gone forever.
You have a beautiful and soothing voice my dear. You’re doing good things for the world.
I feel you, divorced 10 years ago and really don't want another. Never seen or heard from her so pretty much dead to me..... I really need a wingman in my life cause I don't get social cues.
I’m sorry :(
I’m sorry for your loss, love. I’m too young to have anything like a husband or wife, but I’m sure it must be hard dealing with the loss of a spouse. I hope you can recover some day and finally be able to find someone, like a friend, who you can hang out with. Much love to you.
I'm sorry that happened to you!
October 17th, 2019 = 19mos&3days!
Yes to pretty much all you said!!!
Trying to get a handle on it while I still might have a chance.
Just listening to this lady's very calming voice helps.
Books keep me awake. Videos actually help me relax.
I stay awake instead of sleeping because I don't want tomorrow to come.
The stress is simply too much. Teachers and parents' high expectations, an insane amount of homework. This is just too much.
I’ve been there when I was your age. Please try to take care of yourself and get your sleep! Everything will be okay.
Your first sentence is something I've been feeling for a long time. It's like we try to postpone tomorrow, fearing what the next day will bring.
One day you will just stop caring about most of the thing .
Its better to not have any friends you should not trust anyone with your emotions trust me when you will know they don't care or just laugh at you behind your back you will feel betrayed .Do not try to find someone who will understand you embarrass loonliness you will then see fragment of truth.nobody can understand anyone.
Most importantly do not let anyone tell you what is good for you.
However do not become blind to see opportunity that may help you.
Always check your sanity.
I was never able to enjoy my childhood I was alone will be for rest of my life although I will never forget those who helped me but emotionally I am and always be alone in this lonely world .
Don't trust too much to your emotions it will bring only more suffering.
Tell me can you remember when you last felt satisfied not happy nor sad ,but satisfied.i can no longer feel satisfied, happiness or sadness nor how they once felt.
Life is nothing but a Tragedy although it is not dramatic as seen in dramas but nonetheless it is very real.
You should go to sleep: I don't think I can fully understand how difficult it is for you, But I know it'll get better.
I feel you. Life is just too much.
My major problem is pushing all the selfish toxic people out of my life and then realizing that I'm all alone now and have to do things by myself
They may have made me feel like I was never good enough and verbally assaulted me on the regular, but at least I existed for a moment or two every week
I’ve been depressed since I was thirteen and in the last few weeks i’ve been crying almost everyday for no reason and getting really stressed, sick and angry all the time. I guess I have to relax and take time and care of myself now. Thanks for kinda clarifying what’s going on!
Me: has all the signs and all the symptoms of depression
Also me: you’re just faking it

@@CamaroAmx oh no
@@cinnamon3389 my family doesn’t believe in mental health issues. Therapy in my family is “shut the F up and get over it”. They think it’s no worse then being in a bad mood for a day.
On a positive note, my cousin did go to a mental health facility and is doing much better now (thankfully my uncle is slightly more open minded. Then again his current wife is a nurse and may of had something to do with it).
It's kind of scary when you don't even know why you might be breaking down.
@@lhood8263 It would be kind of ironic if I was a "Liberal snowflake" considering my number one source of stress, by far, is the Liberal government's overreach and basically, straight-up tyranny in my country. I see what is coming, I research and read about it and I am losing hope. As a result, I don't feel good sometimes. As far as the 'Psychologisation' of everything, I agree and don't buy into a lot of it. (Philosophy, not psychology, in many instances, will do you better.) Good for you for seeing right through it.
@@lhood8263 I agree cause I'm in Canada too, haha. Yeah, it's getting brutal. I also wish you luck with this firearms Bill. They better let hunters hunt. I've been focusing on C-11 (essentially internet censorship) lately but everything this guy is trying to push through is bad for our basic freedoms. As I'm sure you well know.
Too much device time can induce it
If you really think about it you can usually tell what's causing it. Maybe you just don't know that somethings causing it

I’m surprised the internet cares for me more than my parents, maybe that’s why they say “no internet”
you're right, the worst thing is my teacher that appealed my mom for some concerns, even worse, the school's bully IS that teacher, now my mom thinks i did something.. idk, bad? I just didn't write 2-5 lessons because all the students don't have time, but why the teacher chose me? why me and not the dumb kid?
Nadikris well are you mostly maintaining a high grade or smthg?
@@nadikris7954 Teacher chose you, because you have the potential to do more and be at the top. May be the dumb kid is a loss cause, but you... you have the potential to reach your fullest potential which is better than everyone else.
You know, your honestly right
Unfortunately, not all parents care like that. You don't need extra weight on your hands. Talking out loud can help if you just need to get it out. It's no magic, but It helps you think clearer. Just hang in there. you aren't perfect, and No one should expect perfection. Keep it up! you are more than enough.
I wish you good health and recoverys.
I may be struggling with some of these, but it's not as bad as it could be or was 30 years ago for me when I was married to an abusive person in all the ways. I'm super thankful for leaving when and how I did. There is light at the end of the tunnel....

It's interesting that this video showed up in my feed tonight. I've just been thinking of some of these very topics. It's 3:00 a.m. and I'm contemplating turning off the light but what I was realizing just last night is once I turn the lights off and lay there in the quiet, that's when I feel the most anxiety. I no longer have the distraction of my phone or the TV or my cat. I'm retired and living alone and the concerns of getting older and not being able to remain independent is a big fears I have.

I feel like quarantine has taken a huge toll on everyone's mental health one way or another. I relate to a lot of these points. Also, there are times where I switch from extremely hyper and ecstatic to vastly depressed and lethargic in as little as an hour
quarantine makes my life better only thing is im stuck with my family and i hate it
@@metra8604 interesting :0
@@snickers._.9752 yeah. out of quarantine i have to socialise more and being a very introverted person it drains me. but in quarantine im usually in my room and i don't have to socialise as much so im not as drained as not in quarantine. when im not drained i feel better. i feel more like working on myself so you can see it's better.
I see the same things from the pandemic and quarantines that I used to see on the Ship when I was in the Navy... Over time, everyone gets anxious and excitable. They tend to be more dramatic and drastic in their reactions over less and less as the time goes on. I've often referred to it as "isolation psychosis" because it comes from being "stuck" more or less at sea... or anywhere (really) secluded.
Someone really SHOULD do some research and psych' work on the subject. There has been PLENTY of context and subject matter to study throughout history. Nautical travels have ALWAYS been regarded as hazardous to one's sanity, and now we've got the majority of the world's population stuck indoors at home, warned away from socializing as much and as fervently as we used to (pre-pandemic), and all the new safety standards and protective gear required... the arguing... the political sh*t-shows ongoing... and so on...
It somehow seems to be neglected, EVEN with such aspirations as people hoping to colonize Mars in our lifetimes... BUT if we can't face the reality of what seclusion and isolation do to our mental health, and what we can do about it therapeutically, we're not going to like the results of such a colonization campaign, either...
AND in spite of the best efforts (supposedly) offered from the mental health professionals, there isn't a lot of recognition nor therapeutic advice being offered. At least, they HAVE warned that isolation is one of the worst things you can do to yourself... BUT nobody's offering much of an explanation for it, NOR have they been forthcoming about activities or products to help reduce or resolve it and the related stresses from it...
I'm glad I had D&D back in the Navy-days... AND I'm glad I had the Navy days to build up a personal tolerance for this kind of situation. In lieu of those, however, I CAN offer a small bit of advice. FIND A HOBBY that you can pursue. It doesn't matter what it is, or how you find it enjoyable... It should challenge you just enough to be challenging, so you can find it fun and rewarding when you get better at it and build your skills... It should be reasonably available so you're not breaking the bank to do it regularly... AND whether or not you gain anything particular, you should be able to see your improvements over time as you do it...
Sure. Video Games can be a fine hobby. If that's your thing, it's good to build eye-hand coordination, learn the plethora of controls and formats, enjoy unlocking secrets or building stories or whatever that the games give and create...
I would also casually advise you find more than one hobby to pursue. There's almost no limit to the amount of skills you can build and hobbies you can find interest in one way or another. Sometimes, even the most fun activities get old or boring... or you just get tired of them a while... It helps to still have something (anything) you can take up and enjoy doing for whatever reason you enjoy it.
A bored mind is often going to create things to stimulate itself... Left to its own devices, uncontrolled, it will tend toward creating things to disturb rather than enjoy. Harnessing that creative energy, a hobby can direct the bored mind to engage in something less self-destructive than disturbing nightmare fuel... At least, that seems to work from my casual observation and experience. ;o)
@@gnarthdarkanen7464 wow, that was really interesting to hear! Thank you for the info as well as the helpful tips!! And I agree; we should definitely have a lot more psychological studies on isolation and quarantine, it'll be extremely helpful for others to learn in the future. I can say I have been singing a lot more as I do my chores and studying, and it calms me down about 90 percent of the time, so I can definitely see what you mean about finding hobbies.
