'Drown' is my comfort song, my stim song. I'm still dealing with aftermath of a severe depression and the diagnosis for both ADHD and autism. BMTH is a band that gave me some hope there would be light at the end of the tunnel, and Oli's lyrics made me feel less alone. Both 'Drown' and 'Avalanche' made me feel understood, like no other song/band/songwriter ever had done before
From I-Am-Reclaimer: Hey friend, I can deeply relate to your experience. I'm 31 and was diagnosed with autism when I was 29. Diagnosed with ADHD when I was 23. The ADHD thing wasn't very much of a surprise for me, but when the Austism one came it was a mixed bag. I had learned a lot about ASD and knew that It was highly likely I had it, especially after my uncle was diagnosed at 62. At first a weight was lifted off my chest and all the pain, the embarrasing interactions, the mistakes I had made just made so much sense. But them came the confusion, anger, and depression. "how much better could my life have been if I knew this before. If I knew how to deal with things that came up that I wasn't good at or aware of. How many of the painful and embarrasing things could I have avoided?" It was a bear to wrestle with but now I'm in such a better spot. To be able to know who I am better and to live life in a way that makes me extremely happy and proud. I, too, stim hardcore to metal/hardocre music and love BMTH. They've been a band I've listend to since their album, Suicide Season, and have found respite in songs like "can you feel my heart" and "there is a hell"...and not to mention "diamonds aren't forever." Oli is a lyrical magician. He's got some deep and heartfelt messages that he just SCREAMS into the ether. Stay in there my friend. You're not alone and you are loved!
From tromboness: Thanks for sharing! I'm glad that you've been able to find comfort and hope in BMTH! I'll have to listen to more of their music! It can take a while to process your diagnoses of ADHD and autism, and it is common to have comorbidity of depression with those conditions as well. Maybe it felt concerning at first, but growing to accept these can help you feel more confident. I hope that with a better understanding of yourself, you're able to find peace in who you are. Know that there is a whole community of neurodivergent people that understand the things you're going through, myself included. If you ever need any extra support, don't hesitate to reach out! Hold Fast <3
From Micro: So thankful you feel some resonance through this bands and their music. It's so special when the way you feel internally seems to be projected into the creative outlet of someone else. It helps feeling less alone with the challenges we are facing in our own life. I hope with all my heart that your own journey with depression and these more recent diagnosis to go as smoothly as possible. Personally the different dianogsis I had over the years often felt bittersweet at first - like a new world of possibility and validation of my experiences, but also bringing its share of discouragement and helplessness at the same time. If you ever need to talk more about how you've been experiencing this and how you're doing overall, please feel absolutely free to share, and know that the Heartsupport's community is standing with you. No matter what, you are not alone.
I share the same feelings. Not on the spectrum as far as I know but I haven't had the best mental health and definitely didn't have some good years yet their music still made me fight. I've felt like this with That's the Spirit, Sempiternal, and Post Human: Survival Horror. May things go well for you.
This is an incredibly meaningful song to experience live. Oli spent the entire time hugging people in the crowd and giving high fives while he sang it. I think it means different things to different people, but for anyone going through a difficult time, it’s very cathartic in a way.
When they played this live at Royal Albert Hall, Oli dedicated this song to his childhood friend Aiden who overcame bone cancer. He said "If I die, cancer hasn't won, I've won. I won't let it break my soul, I won't let it break my spirit." To Oli, the song is about his friend who had cancer and how scared he was to lose him. To everyone single other person who hears it, it means something different to each of them. The beauty of music
I feel like a lot of you missed the last message in the end. When the lights go off. BMTH is then left with BTH. The song talks about needing help and not doing it alone. Bring The Horizon would be saying, as a response to the song, to also be the person that gives the help to someone. Maybe someone in the same position you were in at one point. The true message I feel like (with the video) is basically emphasizing the issue, and then saying people have to help each other out. Something doesn't come from nothing. If nobody helped, nobody would get the help they need.
finding someone new reacting to bmth for the first time is my life. not that i feel like any kind of elitist but i constantly chase the high of listening to such relatable powerful music for the first time again
I hope you are doing well now. It took me 2 decades to overcome my depression, some moments being much worse than others. I found that talking to others experiencing similar issues really helped, along with listening to their issues played a huge role in my recovery. It’s much deeper than that, but to keep things from turning into the length of a short story I’ll leave it at that. I just want to say if I could find peace, it is possible for anyone. It takes time. Hopefully others find their peace much more quickly than it took me to find mine.
I’ve pretty much watched all your videos thank you so much for your breaking down mental heath through music it’s so helpful for it’s just what I need at the moment
This is one of my favorite BMTH songs. You should check out BMTH & Corpse "Code Mistske." That is such an amazing song and very deep. Actually, Corpse has quiet a few songs that are very deep. Agraphobic, White Tee, Miss You. ❤
I would love to see you react to a live version of this song. Oli goes out in the crowd and hugs everyone. It's beautiful. Southside festival 2022 is my favorite!
This song help so many people including me. After my dad's passing, I just listen to this song knowing people around me still and going to dive in everytime I drown.
New to the channel, always loved this song but never thought about it from a psychology side unlike a few of their others for some reason. I reckon you nailed it, there is that time from "I'm broken" to "I'm strong" that I can personally say is hard but worth every second putting effort into. Cheers for the reaction
This was my anthem back in high school! Listening to it now the point that theirs a in between state of getting hurt and getting better, and having to ask for help.
Oli really knows how to write the songs we need to sing out fucking loud to feel ourselves and tap into the deep emotions and I love it also this therapist is dope I want some sessions with her lol
I remember playing sempiternal album on repeat, i know every song too heart it got me through so much even when nobody knew what i was going through internally. To everyone i was the cheerful guy but i myself was broken inside, i saw them live in 2017 and i was full of so many emotions that i was jumping and singninh along crying! I cant believ the power of music ❤
From ThriceTheThird: I'm sorry that you are going through tough times, and hospitalizations. If you ever want to let more our, and share more of what you are feeling and going through. Please feel free to do so. <3
From Micro: I hear your exhaustion there, and yes it makes sense to feel tired of it. There is no doubt that you've had to deal with your share of struggles, certainly unwanted adversity in your life, and it's freaking exhausting to feel like your life has to be a constant fight just to get a sense of what others seem to get without any effort, and without even having to think about it. We know life is unpredictable and will always carry to us its own share of difficulties, but it feels terribly unfair to have to deal with the same obstacles - and their consequences - over and over. You just want to have a "normal" life, or at least something different than this, not to feel trapped in hospitals endlessly. It feels as if you were the one being punished while you haven't done anything wrong at all. You just freaking try to live instead of surviving. That saying "what doesn't kill makes you stronger" is definitely infuriating at times, especially if you *are* in this middle where there's only pain in sight and no exit sign. Dealing with consequences of traumas and childhood abuse myself, I have felt this injustice over and over. The injustice and pain of having to deal with direct consequences of things that were done to me - it feels like an added punishment on top of the hurt that already took place. Many times I cried and mourned all the times lost to this pain that I have to learn to live with and work on. So when you end up in a hospital bed because you're in pain, I can only imagine the amount of loneliness and hurt this make you feel. You want your voice to be heard, to want this pain to be taken away, you want to feel safe and confident in your ability to say "I got it from here". But there are things that keep activating this raw pain inside, and it's an awful experience to have. I may not know you personally, but reading your comment I know how brave, resilient and strong you've been, through all the good and bad days you had to go through so far. There must have been so many steps taken, so many detours encountered, so many hardships overcome to get to the point of sharing your voice here - and that is truly special. Thank you so much for sharing, thank you for being here, thank you for expressing how you feel. If anything, you are not alone in this fight - many of us here understand how you feel and are standing with you. My encouragement for you is to not lose faith in yourself - there is more to this life, more to experience, more to discover and bring into this world. I believe in you.
for some reason i always type out the message, ready my cry for help only to delete it thinking I'm not worth the time it takes for someone/something to help me when others need it more. at least songs like this let me go on for a day longer even if nothing changes no matter how much i try.
From Micro: It's okay to take your time, friend. The very act of reaching out and asking for help can be profoundly intimidating, especially if that is not something you are used to do, or if in the past you did it but your message was not received the right way by others. It is particularly challenging to say "I'm not okay" and to seek support. It puts you in this vulnerable position where people actually *see* you - not hidden behind a mask or a smile, but as you truly feel at the moment. It is like opening a door to very personal parts of your self. It makes sense to find it difficult, and to face a lot of fears or justifications as to why you shouldn't do it. The closer you get to reaching out, the higher the anxiety becomes, and the rush of thoughts too... I've definitely been there, over and over throughout my life. Heck I just wrote a message yesterday to try to reach out and open up about how I've been feeling lately, and... I removed the message. You're definitely not alone in this, if that can bring any comfort. It's easy for the mind to find a lot of reasons to not ask for help. It doesn't mean it's right, but it's an expression of the fears we feel at the moment, which is valid. Somehow, sharing what's on your heart is like taking a risk, because you don't know yet how others are going to respond to it. It can turn out to be a very positive experience or a very negative one. And the only way to know is to open that door in the first place - which feels lik a huge responsibility! You are definitely worth the time that someone would offer to listen to you. This is how you feel about yourself and your struggles, but that doesn't indicate any tangible truth. The truth is, if someone is willing to support you - that means they see *you* and how worthy you are. And if someone isn't willing to do that, then that just means they may not be the right person, or they are not equipped to listen, or it's not the right time for them. Through all of this myriad of possibilities though: you *are* worth it. You *are* valuable. What's going on in your mind and heart is absolutely valid to share. You have the right to occupy space and share your voice just like any other person on this planet. You matter! On the other hand, your struggles are not less important than others either. I know it's easy to compare ourselves and feel like others are going through a lot while our own problems may be insignificant. But whenever you see that voice inside of your mind at play, it really is just an expression of your fears and anxiety at the moment, not of any ultimate truth. Because no matter what you are going through, it is important to you. It matters in your life, in your story and circumstances - and in light of who you are at the moment, so it is important! A struggle may seem from someone on the outside like it's not a big deal yet actually feeling like it *is* the end of the world for the person experiencing it firsthand. It's a matter of perspective there, and there is no need to judge the value of quality of people or their struggles. As a fellow anxious bean when it comes to reaching out, I would love to encourage you to keep pushing through and to keep trying. You are never wrong for sharing what's on your heart. If someone reacts poorly to it, they are in the wrong. Your voice deserves to be heard, friend. And if you've been alone with your thoughts/struggles, then it's okay to welcome others into your life so they can help. Not everyone will be equipped or ready to listen or even understand, but from experience I can tell you that there's more people than we imagine who actually experience similar emotions than we do. We have different stories, but we can connect at an emotional level through a very large diversity of situations, which helps in feeling understood and less alone. If you would feel a little more comfortable, Heartsupport has an online and anonymous forum to reach out and be heard/supported. It is at forum.heartsupport.com - and you are absolutely welcome to post there. I am personally a member of Heartsupport's staff and an admin there, so I can definitely assure you that conversations there are respectful, caring and safe. It's a precious space to share our most vulnerable side when we need it. No matter what you would decide moving forward, know that someone out there is proud of you for trying already! Even if you removed your comment or hesitated, or anything like that - you still tried! And that is huge! I hear you, I see you, and I hope you will have some positive and safe interactions that will increase your confidence in opening up about your struggles when you need it. The first step is the scariest - then the waiting is challenging too when it's online and we wait for a response. But I have faith in you and in your ability to overcome those fears. You got this.
@HeartSupport This song saved my life, every time I hear it I break into tears. I was diagnosed with Kidney disease/failure in 2016 and spent 37 days in the hospital alone with my father and stepmother only able to visit me once a week due to them living in a different state. being in my 40s at the time having never been in the hospital for anything before my entire life I was terrified, I was alone crying myself to sleep every night thinking to myself what my life was going to be like and how it was going to change. I was an athlete and musician, I played drums. I would listen to this song every night before I closed my eyes, for 6 years through dialysis, and even now after my transplant, it still keeps me going because my life will still never be what it was mentally as well as physically I have to cope with that. Your channel has been helping me so much since I found you. thank you so much for what you do.
You need to react to All Fucked Up By The Amity Affliction and be prepared to cry. Most powerful song on mental health I’ve watched with the strong message it sends out
With the way you do reactions I would love to see some from Avenged Sevenfold and specifically songs that have to do with their drummer, Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan, after he passed away. "So far away" is a great way to start with that since its a tribute to him with an amazing music video to accompany it. "Fiction" and "Save Me" would also be great. "Fiction" was originally named "Death" and is special on its own with it being the last song that Rev wrote and gave to his band member 3 days before he was found dead.
@@heartsupport I think what they were trying to get at when they got to that little intro was that they were starting to sound dumb. Which is honestly how I feel wherever I try to get my point across.
Please react to Signs by Caskets. This song had helped my get through the toughest year of my life, still helping get through this tough time. I listen to this song daily as a reminder that I'm strong and will get past this hell I'm going through!
Please do the song "Wednesday Afternoon" by Palaye Royale. It was released this past mothers day and really helped me as a conduit for emotion surrounding my mothers passing. ❤
I feel like it´s missing out the visual signals each member of the band was giving during the video... Like: "The inferiority complex" behind the invisible hand. " The Suffocation" The drummer was feeling while performing. " The Social Anxiety" Obviously making the keyboardist close himself up. And the entire fact of the purpouse of the video been recorded on a Mental Health Institution.
I'm needing you to hear my story im need someone to talk to and not scream at me when I say something they don't want to hear what I got to say I've listened to a few of your videos and could really use your advice I've been crying out for help for 49 years and Im 51 and in asking for you to help me
From Micro: Hey friend, Thank you so much for reaching out here. Please feel absolutely free to share what's on your heart and story. This is what Heartsupport is all about and we have a loving community here willing to listen to you and encourage you. If you want, you can share here directly in the comments, or you can also post on our anonymous forum at forum.heartsupport.com . These are safe options for you to share your voice *and* be heard as you need. I feel the heaviness you've been carrying on your own shoulders and would love to hear your story. Know that you are not alone and we care about you here.
This is last song I liked of these guys , diamonds aren’t forever it never ends don’t.lwas my style but now not for me still love Ollie Sykes will forever be in my soul
From runner12: @user-pz8my8yz5y I’m so glad you reached out. Saying that you need help is an important step. I don't know your situation but I want you to know you aren’t alone in your struggles. When I’ve felt alone and like there was no one I could reach out to, I’ll write, read books about my struggle, and make a list of possible people I could open up to. Like a pastor, teacher, coach, possible support group in the area, relative or friend. Or posting here which I’m so glad you did. We are here for you!
From Micro: @user-pz8my8yz5y We are here to support you at Heartsupport. If you have no one who could listen to you, to your story, to what's on your heart, then know you have a place right here and people who genuinely care on the other side. I know it's not the same as interacting with someone you already know, and it can feel intimidating to talk about our struggles openly, but I just want to reassure you that this space and this community are safe and meant for this exact purpose. Connecting together. Being strong in our vulnerability together. Healing together. It can be so hard to find our way through this crazy thing called life - rest assured that you are not alone, my friend. You also did something amazing here, which is to recognize your need for help. Maybe this wasn't the case months or years ago, but here you are today, willing to get the support you need. That alone takes tremendous strength, and you can be proud of yourself for being in this dynamic of trying to build a support system for yourself. I do hope that this step can be one of many for you. We're in this with you. If you would like to share more, feel absolutely welcome to do so. You matter so very much. :heart: - Marie-Anne, Heartsupport Staff
You NEED to react to "Hospital for Souls", you will not regret
This ^^^^^
Agreed
I'm here for it!
Agreed
Yusssss
I never thought a song about depression would make a therapist smile so much lol
'Cause it hits really hard
'Drown' is my comfort song, my stim song. I'm still dealing with aftermath of a severe depression and the diagnosis for both ADHD and autism. BMTH is a band that gave me some hope there would be light at the end of the tunnel, and Oli's lyrics made me feel less alone. Both 'Drown' and 'Avalanche' made me feel understood, like no other song/band/songwriter ever had done before
From I-Am-Reclaimer: Hey friend,
I can deeply relate to your experience. I'm 31 and was diagnosed with autism when I was 29. Diagnosed with ADHD when I was 23.

To be able to know who I am better and to live life in a way that makes me extremely happy and proud.
I, too, stim hardcore to metal/hardocre music and love BMTH. They've been a band I've listend to since their album, Suicide Season, and have found respite in songs like "can you feel my heart" and "there is a hell"...and not to mention "diamonds aren't forever."
Oli is a lyrical magician. He's got some deep and heartfelt messages that he just SCREAMS into the ether.
Stay in there my friend. You're not alone and you are loved!
From tromboness: Thanks for sharing! I'm glad that you've been able to find comfort and hope in BMTH! I'll have to listen to more of their music!
It can take a while to process your diagnoses of ADHD and autism, and it is common to have comorbidity of depression with those conditions as well.

Hold Fast <3
Avalanche is one of my go to songs too. I feel like my head wasn't wired for this world a lot of times too.
From Micro: So thankful you feel some resonance through this bands and their music. It's so special when the way you feel internally seems to be projected into the creative outlet of someone else. It helps feeling less alone with the challenges we are facing in our own life.

this songs, help me a million of times, ty BMTH for this masterpiece
100,000 people will tell you 100,000 different reasons why this song meant so much to them
When they played this live at Royal Albert Hall, Oli dedicated this song to his childhood friend Aiden who overcame bone cancer. He said "If I die, cancer hasn't won, I've won. I won't let it break my soul, I won't let it break my spirit." To Oli, the song is about his friend who had cancer and how scared he was to lose him.

finding someone new reacting to bmth for the first time is my life. not that i feel like any kind of elitist but i constantly chase the high of listening to such relatable powerful music for the first time again
And this song helped me from taking my life. Thank you for this.
I hope you are doing well now. It took me 2 decades to overcome my depression, some moments being much worse than others.

I love you man don’t forget that.

This song got me through so much. I saw them in concert and singing this out loud made me cry. I have it tattooed on me now. Great reaction.
New to the channel, always loved this song but never thought about it from a psychology side unlike a few of their others for some reason. I reckon you nailed it, there is that time from "I'm broken" to "I'm strong" that I can personally say is hard but worth every second putting effort into. Cheers for the reaction
This was my anthem back in high school!
Listening to it now the point that theirs a in between state of getting hurt and getting better, and having to ask for help.
BMTH is amazing and have helped me threw so much. I relate to this song way to much its scary 😢

To everyone i was the cheerful guy but i myself was broken inside, i saw them live in 2017 and i was full of so many emotions that i was jumping and singninh along crying! I cant believ the power of music ❤
What doesn’t kill me leaves me trapped in a hospital bed and I’m fuckin tired of it

So creative, the band members were literally ignoring the problem. I LOVE Bring Me so much 💛
for some reason i always type out the message, ready my cry for help only to delete it thinking I'm not worth the time it takes for someone/something to help me when others need it more. at least songs like this let me go on for a day longer even if nothing changes no matter how much i try.
From Micro: It's okay to take your time, friend. The very act of reaching out and asking for help can be profoundly intimidating, especially if that is not something you are used to do, or if in the past you did it but your message was not received the right way by others. It is particularly challenging to say "I'm not okay" and to seek support. It puts you in this vulnerable position where people actually *see* you - not hidden behind a mask or a smile, but as you truly feel at the moment. It is like opening a door to very personal parts of your self. It makes sense to find it difficult, and to face a lot of fears or justifications as to why you shouldn't do it.
The closer you get to reaching out, the higher the anxiety becomes, and the rush of thoughts too... I've definitely been there, over and over throughout my life. Heck I just wrote a message yesterday to try to reach out and open up about how I've been feeling lately, and... I removed the message. You're definitely not alone in this, if that can bring any comfort. It's easy for the mind to find a lot of reasons to not ask for help. It doesn't mean it's right, but it's an expression of the fears we feel at the moment, which is valid. Somehow, sharing what's on your heart is like taking a risk, because you don't know yet how others are going to respond to it. It can turn out to be a very positive experience or a very negative one. And the only way to know is to open that door in the first place - which feels lik a huge responsibility!
You are definitely worth the time that someone would offer to listen to you. This is how you feel about yourself and your struggles, but that doesn't indicate any tangible truth. The truth is, if someone is willing to support you - that means they see *you* and how worthy you are. And if someone isn't willing to do that, then that just means they may not be the right person, or they are not equipped to listen, or it's not the right time for them. Through all of this myriad of possibilities though: you *are* worth it. You *are* valuable. What's going on in your mind and heart is absolutely valid to share. You have the right to occupy space and share your voice just like any other person on this planet. You matter!
On the other hand, your struggles are not less important than others either. I know it's easy to compare ourselves and feel like others are going through a lot while our own problems may be insignificant. But whenever you see that voice inside of your mind at play, it really is just an expression of your fears and anxiety at the moment, not of any ultimate truth. Because no matter what you are going through, it is important to you. It matters in your life, in your story and circumstances - and in light of who you are at the moment, so it is important! A struggle may seem from someone on the outside like it's not a big deal yet actually feeling like it *is* the end of the world for the person experiencing it firsthand. It's a matter of perspective there, and there is no need to judge the value of quality of people or their struggles.
As a fellow anxious bean when it comes to reaching out, I would love to encourage you to keep pushing through and to keep trying. You are never wrong for sharing what's on your heart. If someone reacts poorly to it, they are in the wrong. Your voice deserves to be heard, friend. And if you've been alone with your thoughts/struggles, then it's okay to welcome others into your life so they can help. Not everyone will be equipped or ready to listen or even understand, but from experience I can tell you that there's more people than we imagine who actually experience similar emotions than we do. We have different stories, but we can connect at an emotional level through a very large diversity of situations, which helps in feeling understood and less alone.
If you would feel a little more comfortable, Heartsupport has an online and anonymous forum to reach out and be heard/supported. It is at forum.heartsupport.com - and you are absolutely welcome to post there. I am personally a member of Heartsupport's staff and an admin there, so I can definitely assure you that conversations there are respectful, caring and safe. It's a precious space to share our most vulnerable side when we need it.
No matter what you would decide moving forward, know that someone out there is proud of you for trying already! Even if you removed your comment or hesitated, or anything like that - you still tried! And that is huge! I hear you, I see you, and I hope you will have some positive and safe interactions that will increase your confidence in opening up about your struggles when you need it. The first step is the scariest - then the waiting is challenging too when it's online and we wait for a response. But I have faith in you and in your ability to overcome those fears. You got this.
@@HeartSupport whoever you are, thankyou. I somehow actually cried reading this...
👍Great performance! Perhaps try BMTH Kingslayer live in Tokyo. 🖖❤

I can easily say this song has save me many times
You are my BMTH spirit animal!
Can you do 1x1 BMTH next
@HeartSupport This song saved my life, every time I hear it I break into tears. I was diagnosed with Kidney disease/failure in 2016 and spent 37 days in the hospital alone with my father and stepmother only able to visit me once a week due to them living in a different state. being in my 40s at the time having never been in the hospital for anything before my entire life I was terrified, I was alone crying myself to sleep every night thinking to myself what my life was going to be like and how it was going to change. I was an athlete and musician, I played drums. I would listen to this song every night before I closed my eyes, for 6 years through dialysis, and even now after my transplant, it still keeps me going because my life will still never be what it was mentally as well as physically I have to cope with that. Your channel has been helping me so much since I found you. thank you so much for what you do.
You need to react to All Fucked Up By The Amity Affliction and be prepared to cry. Most powerful song on mental health I’ve watched with the strong message it sends out
There’s a beautiful piano cover for this song from Faith Marie. Beautiful is the only word I can describe it with
Next Hospital For Soul please
That's a BRUTAL song, thanks for listening to it.
I had, once, someone, wo didn't let me drown. Well... I learned to swim alone, apparently :)
can you do a react to BMTH Sleep walking ?
Can you do Boston Manor or Movements?
Im so loved your Best reactions beib
Thank you for reacting this masterpiece, I suggest to check out Bad Life by Sigrid and Bring me the horizon :)
May i suggest "anthem of the angels" "dear agony" Breaking benjamin
With the way you do reactions I would love to see some from Avenged Sevenfold and specifically songs that have to do with their drummer, Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan, after he passed away. "So far away" is a great way to start with that since its a tribute to him with an amazing music video to accompany it. "Fiction" and "Save Me" would also be great. "Fiction" was originally named "Death" and is special on its own with it being the last song that Rev wrote and gave to his band member 3 days before he was found dead.
I would love to see you react to "DIE ANOTHER DAY" by Blind Channel. This song is my favorite atm and helps me a lot. ❤🩹❤🔥
@@heartsupport I think what they were trying to get at when they got to that little intro was that they were starting to sound dumb. Which is honestly how I feel wherever I try to get my point across.
There's an amazing cover of this song by Faith Hill.
Please react to Signs by Caskets. This song had helped my get through the toughest year of my life, still helping get through this tough time. I listen to this song daily as a reminder that I'm strong and will get past this hell I'm going through!
I'd love to see a reaction to the song Teardrops by bmth
I would like to request a reaction video about this track: Shape of despair-written in my scars.
The acoustic version is powerful as well
Please do the song "Wednesday Afternoon" by Palaye Royale. It was released this past mothers day and really helped me as a conduit for emotion surrounding my mothers passing. ❤
All Fucked Up next please?
I Prevail, let me be sad give it a listen
I know it's not hard-core but could you try some motion city soundtrack? Very cerebral
This song always reminds me of my mom and her lifelong battle with drug addiction
Please do let me be sad by I prevail. That song speaks loudly
please react ‘BMTH - IT NEVER END’ ❤❤❤
i hope oly watch this...
You should react to Hospital of Souls, its my personal favorite and one I really relate to.
@4:49 psychedelic lights comes in
This band is funny in the worst ways! Fucking love them! Love Oli!
This one of my fav for heal. But a song who turnover my life. Maybe Eminem - not afraid. And hope u can reaction this one
I feel like it´s missing out the visual signals each member of the band was giving during the video... Like:
"The inferiority complex" behind the invisible hand.
" The Suffocation" The drummer was feeling while performing.
" The Social Anxiety" Obviously making the keyboardist close himself up.
And the entire fact of the purpouse of the video been recorded on a Mental Health Institution.
If you're into metalcore then please check out October Ends!! Damaged ?
Gotta do BMTH black and blue! Its heavy but, be warned.
I'm needing you to hear my story im need someone to talk to and not scream at me when I say something they don't want to hear what I got to say I've listened to a few of your videos and could really use your advice I've been crying out for help for 49 years and Im 51 and in asking for you to help me

I need help but i don't have anybody to ask for help
From runner12: @user-pz8my8yz5y I’m so glad you reached out. Saying that you need help is an important step. I don't know your situation but I want you to know you aren’t alone in your struggles. When I’ve felt alone and like there was no one I could reach out to, I’ll write, read books about my struggle, and make a list of possible people I could open up to. Like a pastor, teacher, coach, possible support group in the area, relative or friend. Or posting here which I’m so glad you did. We are here for you!
From Micro: @user-pz8my8yz5y We are here to support you at Heartsupport. If you have no one who could listen to you, to your story, to what's on your heart, then know you have a place right here and people who genuinely care on the other side. I know it's not the same as interacting with someone you already know, and it can feel intimidating to talk about our struggles openly, but I just want to reassure you that this space and this community are safe and meant for this exact purpose. Connecting together. Being strong in our vulnerability together. Healing together. It can be so hard to find our way through this crazy thing called life - rest assured that you are not alone, my friend.
You also did something amazing here, which is to recognize your need for help. Maybe this wasn't the case months or years ago, but here you are today, willing to get the support you need. That alone takes tremendous strength, and you can be proud of yourself for being in this dynamic of trying to build a support system for yourself.
I do hope that this step can be one of many for you. We're in this with you. If you would like to share more, feel absolutely welcome to do so. You matter so very much. :heart:
- Marie-Anne, Heartsupport Staff
Who will fix me now?
PLEASE DO, ZILLAKAMI!!!!
"It feels like it releases something in my heart." Welcome to the reason that so many neuro-divergents listen to this type of music. 😜
