      I've never heard of Ren. I admit, I'm not much of a fan of modern music 🙈🙉🙊 I'm a huge Rockabilly fan; Bowie, that genre, when music was actually written without technology 🤫 But I appreciate the creative/expressive aspect of all music. And, kidney stones are excruciating!! I suffer from EPI (Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency) due to chronic pancreatitis. When in a flare the pain is similar, yet non-stop for days. I've prayed for God to take me. So, I truly feel for you and hope you're feeling better.

      ​@@aibhilin1211I'm also a huge Bowie fan and I think Blackstar is one of the greatest pieces of art ever. Knowing he wasn't long for this Earth and still fighting against the dying of the light. I like Ren for similar reasons. The man is an artist applying his life to his music and like Bowie, he bends genres frequently. He does a lot of music organically as well. He's an excellent guitarist and pianist. Honestly, he's the best artist I've come across in over 40 years.

      Great reaction! Love your take on the sins from an evolutionary perspective. From a Buddhist perspective they all represent different forms of clinging that lead to suffering. But simply avoiding them or avoiding clinging or suffering are just other forms of clinging that will lead to suffering as well. Hope you get well again soon, the storms are all around us.

    Your reactions to Ren are some of the best I've seen. The professional/technical insight to the lyrics is awesome, just as much as your more 'human' perspective and experiences really make for an enjoyable dive into the meaning of words. Sorry to hear you've been sick- get a cuppa tea and I hope you feel better soon!

    Listened to the translation of the Welsh earlier today. Ren wrote it as a ulargy to himself. Sickness is my teacher, It broke my smile. My bone's feel old. Here lies Ren's body. It's in Disco Doc's reaction to this song at 4:13. Cant find the first time I heard it on Ren's twitch stream but it's sound's the same.

    For me it’s the line about being buried while you breathe. Basically you’re alive but dead inside, or at least that’s how I took it. Ren is a once in a lifetime artist, truly incredible. Great reaction as always.

  • @fourcornersofbrighton
    @fourcornersofbrighton 7 місяців тому +19

    Hey Stuart, another great reaction! I always enjoy it when you decide to check out the new Ren releases.
    Just for a bit of background about me: I am one of those fans who identify with Ren's struggles personally, as I also deal with pain daily and am mostly homebound (but thankfully not bedbound). For me, the line: 'God tied a noose to his neck then he walked to the edge and he jumped' sounds like a time in life that I've experienced. The mental imagery reminds me of those times when the pain is so severe that with it can also come a loss of faith in God or a feeling of being forsaken by God. It reminds me of the struggles of Job where he is faithful but tested horribly.
    I'm interested in checking out the book you mentioned, 'Facing The Storm'. One of the things I admire about Ren is that he's found a way not only to accept his pain but to develop a feeling of gratitude for it. I've had chronic pain issues for the past 15-20 years and have found ways to accommodate the limitations that come with it. At this point, I've discovered life hacks to streamline and organize tasks around bad days, but I'm not sure I will ever find gratitude for it. It feels like that is beyond me.

    • @TherapistReactsOfficial
      @TherapistReactsOfficial  7 місяців тому +4

      I think thats completely understandable. Although Ren may have developed a feeling of gratitude that doesn't mean every one will, all even most people will, there is no right or wrong way to relate to difficulties, we are all different and work through things in our own ways. It seems like you have found some way to move forward and that is what matters, and I am pleased that you have. Thanks for sharing.

  • @marzipanmenthol
    @marzipanmenthol 7 місяців тому +2

    I'm mostly through my undergrad degree in psychology right now, and evolutionary psych has always made the most sense to me- both as a student, and as one who is as much in the field to help myself as others. I've always felt it helps give the greatest sense of understanding and self-compassion. We are animals with meta-cognition that have been thrust into a world unfathomably more complicated than we could ever hope to adapt to with grace. (and yet!! i think we do remarkably well)
    Everything we do that hurts someone else is done to protect ourselves. Like you said- the greater the sense of hurt, the greater the punishment. In the animal brain, there is no way to ensure your survival than to ensure your opponent will never challenge you again. All we want is safety, plenty, and love. With all the control we've evolved, it's no wonder we go to excruciating lengths to keep what we have.

  • @benbattersby9239
    @benbattersby9239 7 місяців тому +2

    Ren has an incredible way of presenting his trials and experiences in a way it triggers discussion. Never in a way of comparing it to someone else experience or to put him above anyone else but always in a way even so small we can relate and discuss our own experiences. He is healing and bringing focus to so many mental/physical issues that over time have been pushed to the dark.

    Appreciate your thoughts. Ren's description of his pain was almost viseral and one of the most effective ways of describing it. The physical and mental anguish were something anyone could understand.
    Your discussion about the sins was helpful because I wasn't drawing that connection to mind. It makes for a more complete picture.
    Sending virtual hugs your way and healing vibes.

  • @bethscott4330

    I enjoyed watching you and listening to you.
    I too passed a kidney stone about 3 weeks ago. I’m a 55 year old woman and I understand your pain because before I had kids I had multiple stones that landed me in the hospital and I begged for pain medication every moment.
    Strangely though, after I had my 3 sons I have had two episodes of stones, but experienced no pain in my kidneys. The one I had 15 years ago lodged in my urethra and I actually became septic and almost died. So, not having pain sounds better, but it could be deadly. The one a few weeks back must have been stuck in my bladder for months and months because I was continually misdiagnosed with UTIs and eventually one day it passed. It was 1/2”. Crazy.
    Sorry I probably shared too much. Basically, I can relate.
    When it comes to pain…I’ve lived my whole life with emotional pain I suffer in private. To the world I appear fine. I’m in psychoanalysis. I’m a few months in and it’s very slow going. There’s a lot of power in silence I’ve found. In his silence I’ve discovered how sadistic I am towards myself. I hope something changes…gets better. I’m scared, but keep trying.
    You’re a good man and seem to genuinely care for the psychological well being for others. Keep it up.

    I believe the "born to be half a man" line you were referring to, going with the context of the surrounding verse, would suggest another call back to the duality of light and dark, good and evil, man and monster.

To much pain to sleep, but to warn down to be awake... Your mind processes inturprets the pain, physical/mental in half conscious dreams. Alowed his son himself to die for my sins, forgiveness, reprieve but none to be had... Pain... Sadness
    With a clear rested mind we see the flaws of the dream but yet the embedded truth and images continues to haunt your mind.

    I too recently had a kidneystone...after about a month of "backache" it escalated to bad enough to call for medical help, and thankfully the ambulance crew arrived just as i had the pain soar so i couldnt do anything except throw up repeatedly. Unlike you, mine couldnt pass on its own and a stent operation was needed to bypass it for a few weeks until another op to break it up. In hospital there was a proffesional boxer, used to getting punched etc and he described the kidney stone pain as the worst he had ever felt in his life - which helped me not feel as silly from being wrecked by it.
    that said, its not the worst pain ive had...that was a virus infection in the cartilidge of my sternum, which was thankfuly only in moments when i coughed but would make my vision go grey and almost passout each time.
    And realising how blessed i am that ive only had to deal with such pain for short periods makes me appreciate the suffering of those who live with such pain day in, day out for year after year. The strength to get through such continuous agony is beyond my comprehension. I'm not religious but the imagery of being burned in the fires of hell seems apt.
    Combine that with being young and feeling your "prime of life" is being taken from you...i cant imagine.

    7 Sins
    "Salwch yw fy athrawen
    Fe dorrodd fy ngwên
    Mae fy esgyrn yn teimlo'n hen
    Yma y gorwedd corff Ren" [Welsh]
    (Illness is my teacher
    My smile broke
    My bones feel old
    Here lies Ren's body)
    I lay broken on the kitchen floor
    I clawed at the laminate
    Pain wandered my body, an uninvited guest
    Bones of a home where the devil could rest
    I cursed the gods, cursed my messiah
    Cursed my maker, I cursed all of creation
    There I lay, feeble and thin
    (Sick boi, sick boi, sever my sins)
    Have you ever felt pain?
    Stomach wrenching, unrelenting, tell me
    Have you ever felt pain?
    Condescending, muscles clenching, tell me
    Have you ever felt pain?
    A rose emerges from the pavement cracks
    They'll write my eulogy with broken glass
    Eternal parallax, pain
    Pain the author, I accept this
    Pain the teacher, bruised apprentice
    Pain the system, pain will come
    Pain the mother, I'm the son
    Pain that splits you in two when it hits you
    The dark and the light are converged to one
    Pain that twists you, the Heavens dismiss you
    The Father, the Ghost, and the Holy Son
    Body bags, body bags, body-bagging me
    Zip it up quick if things don't be
    I search for peace in the belly of a beast
    Sick boi, sick boi, onomatopoeia
    Running up a fever, followin' a leader
    Wanna be me, ha? Grass isn't greener
    Bright light seizure, dynamite dealer
    Dine at the table of the coroner, eat up, fuck
    Thirteen years and I've been feelin' so stuck
    Lucky number thirteen, just my luck
    Empires tumble, rubbles and dust
    The universe shrinks and the planets combust
    In God we trust
    God tied a noose to his neck
    And he walked to the edge and he jumped
    Angels wept
    And I beared witness watching the whole thing unfold from my bed
    A bed where I never deep rest
    A bed where I'm always depressed
    A bed with a human oppressed
    A bed for the tomb where I slept
    A bed in this room that's a womb for this mess
    Sick boi, bitten by a tick boy
    Tell me how it feels to be buried while you breathe
    Stones and sticks, boy, pain is a gift, boy
    Hard to make a stand when you crawl on your knees
    And I kneel
    I kneel at the altar of my own disease and I beg
    I begged the sky for mercy
    Mercy never came, I did me dirty
    Thirty-three and hurting, cursing
    Jesus died at 33 and still, my sins are lurking
    Gears are turning, future stays uncertain
    Surgeon incision, murder ambition
    Fear of the unknown preserves a religion
    Denounced the gods when my body went missing
    Back then the pain sprayed ricocheted like a MAC 10
    Hot lead hit the bed I was trapped in
    Red wings, seraphim, one of God's grace
    Cried tears from Heaven like Clapton
    Stick pins in a voodoo, Hendrix
    Thick skin, stay humble-Kendrick
    Stay skeptic, check the biometrics
    Bloodstain crime scene, forensics
    Lights on, lights out
    Fade into the background
    Slow down, slow down
    Runnin' from the silhouette of self-doubt
    By now, by now
    Really should've figured this shit out
    Lights on, lights out
    Smackdown
    Let it be, let it be, quote John Lennon
    Click-clack, John got shot for attention
    What does that tell you about the good of intentions?
    Bitterness formed in the storm of aggression
    Prophets get dropped, imagining heaven
    Martin Luther, Mahatma, more deadness
    Six, six, followed by six and seven
    Build 'em, praise 'em, bury 'em, dead 'em
    I was born to be half a man with half a chance
    My heart is in half, half-righteous, half is damned
    And half a gram, heart goes troubles end
    Thoughts stay darker than Uruk-Hai's masterplan
    Sharper than glass, shards splinter and
    Sinner man, sinner man, irony could kill a man
    Hay makes money when the music lands, expand
    Pay me my cheese, rain down parmesan
    Six followed by seven
    Seven whole sins for a self-made Armageddon
    Sin one: Pride
    Pride makes a man kill a man for his ego to survive
    Sin two: Lust
    Lust makes the grass look greener, crucifies trust
    Sin three: Gluttony
    Humans consume and consume, planet Earth gets a frontal lobotomy
    Four: Sloth
    Rinse and repeat, reruns, repeat, time lost
    Sin five: Envy
    That's when one man's win is an another man's frenzy
    Sin six: Wrath
    Rage, vengeance, kill it, psychopath
    Sin seven: Greed
    Greed plants a seed that will destroy us all if we succumb to greed
    If we take what we need
    Then take more than we need, then our oceans will bleed
    Still, we feed and we feed and we sleep and repeat
    Then we exile the shepherds and follow the sheep
    We inherit the mean
    We inherit this world that we bruised and we beat
    We inherit this vanity, circles of greed
    Inherit the liars, the murderous thieves
    One sin for every one day of the week

    One thing ive learned about ren is he does nothing by accident. Welsh language choral singing is an incredibly important cultural practice here in wales. To start the first song if his new album with it is tribute to his roots indeed ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 cymru am byth!

    Lust greed envy-the same. Sloth, pride, gluttony-the same. Wrath ties them all together in, say. But maybe I'm wrong, and maybe it's more that all are the same minus 1 that ties them together and the 1 can be interchangeable with all the others.

      While I'm aware I dont have what ren has, i still feel an extreme connection with him, having what he was originally diagnosed with.
      Even if our stories aren't the same, they're certainly parallel, which makes it hard to not sympathize with his story or fall in love with his music
      My damage, unfortunately, makes many of my emotional ranges limited or defective. I cannot feel angry, or happy, I've not even felt healthy since my symptoms started. I can basically only feel scared, sad, or too tired to feel anything but the physical pain.
      I cannot explain how much I want to be angry. I want to have a drive to be better, to advocate for myself, for my health. I so desperately want rage to fuel a mistake or two that will uncover a problem.
      But I cannot
      But ren feels it. He's furious and calculated and he's just like me. He feels the anger on my behalf, and it's so therapeutic to feel the vindication towards the issues that closely affect me, even if it's vicariously.
      It's ironically what's been inspiring me to return to the degree I had to leave due to my cfs killing me quickly, sending me into 22 hour sleeps that I couldn't wake from, or have energy to care for myself between.
      Returning, however, could give me a chance to possibly do the same in my own way, perhaps. Whatever I end up doing with my neuroscience degree, you bet your ass they won't get me to shut up.
      It feels so strange to let someone else's anger fuel your own advocacy, but it feels so natural with ren's work. As he mentioned in troubles, conditions like ours are criminally under studied.
      I don't want someone else to get a diagnosis and their only form of treatment is starting naproxen.

      Ha! Yeah it was funny. We still talk about it in meetings. “Remember that time Stuart said he needed the toilet during a teams meeting, and then we saw him literally crawling past the webcam on the floor 10 mins later asking us to call an ambulance”….. good times.

      Thanks for sharing your experience. I like your perspective which is a bit like anger by proxy (that’s not a thing I don’t think, I just made it up) but I think you know what I mean.

    Interesantno koliko ljudi želi reagirati .Ima Ren nešto što je puno više od pjesme , stiha,.To nije sam,o glazba, ne znam što je ali me iznenađuje koliko sam se i sama okupirala tolikim gledanjem reakcija .
    Nenametljiva vrlo točna reakcija .Sviđa mi se.

    Towards the end of Hi, Ren.
    I was made to be tested and twisted
    I was made to be broken and beat
    I was made by his hand to stand on my own two feet
    Not trying to be rude. Just autistic and it was nagging at me and if I didn't comment, it would've bugged me for months.
    I'm glad my siblings watch you enough to get you into mom's algorithm. You seem really sweet.

    Regressed/deeprest never returned to a former or less developed state. Meaning he was told to rest and the better part of a year was spent a year in bed. Which never helped. More misdiagnosis

    @Codex7777 7 місяців тому

    "Sick boi, sick boi, seven nights in" not sick boi sick boi seven deadly sins. Mishearing that line made you misrepresent the opening of the song.
    It describes an incident where Ren hadn't left his bed for over a year, in constant chronic pain and severely underweight. Somehow he'd managed to crawl down to the kitchen before the pain became so overwhelmingly excruciating, that the tears were automatic and constant and where he was literally digging his nails into the laminate flooring, in pain, desperation and despair.

    Keep in mind, every thing in this video is carefully considered, including the _ending click of the gun_ ...not ending in silence or a gunshot. Jimmy pressed on the trigger of a money game, there is every likelihood Jimmy killed his ego and connection to the game. Killed the values he was raised with. Ren never promotes suicide as an answer, you'll know this once you watch more Ren.
    He wouldn't depict suicide on screen, that's not the solution

    It's funny you mentioned the seven sins having a functional purpose - that's actually the crux of LaVeyan satanism. The sins serve a purpose so people shouldn't be shamed for indulging in them, as long as it doesn't cause harm to other people. Completely random thought there but I've not really heard that discussed anywhere outside of satanic circles.

    • @TherapistReactsOfficial
      @TherapistReactsOfficial  4 місяці тому

      I find people’s belief systems fascinating (probably helpful as a therapist). I read a book about the neuroscience of the sins but it isn’t go into beliefs systems like satanism, I might have another look at it. Outside of the shock factor I don’t really know much about what it entails.

    Lust is not always, or necessarily, about sex, yet it was the first thing you jumped on. Lust is an emotion not specifically attributable to any one desirable object. And I don’t think envy is ever useful, the word would then be admiration, there’s a reason why envy is destructive, and admiration isn’t necessarily so.

    14:38 Slavery, a reference to slavery my friend; also a biblical reference to the state of bondage under sin... in John 8;34 "Jesus answered them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Everyone that commits sin is the slave of sin." It is also a reference to Ancestral or Original sin.

    16:11 That feeling you reference is not the same as what Ren is referring to. The manner of Pride Ren refers to is the sort that would have one seeing themself as the proper standard for reality, be it as final judge or worthy center of all that exists.
