I was 19 when I tried to commit suicide. I sat in my room with a loaded gun in my lap and my mother walked in as I clicked the safety off. She ran over to me and threw the gun away from me. With tears in her eyes and tears streaming down my face she looked at me and told me "Zach, it's not worth it!" She couldn't have been more right. I still battle with depression every single day. With the help of my family I'm able to cope. Whoever is reading this, whoever is thinking of taking their own life, I implore you to not do it. Suicide is a permanent solution to temporary problems! If anyone is in crisis, please message me! I don't care what time it is, if you need me, I'll be there! You don't have to fight alone! You are loved, it's ok to feel how you're feeling! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise! Stay strong!
I served in Iraq in '03-04 , i suffer from PTSD and Depression - me and that demon fight 24 hours a day. 10 years of therapy gave me the tools i needed to plant my feet and hold my ground. I have friends dead and buried from war - I won't give up. It's not easy. Everyday is hard, but - tomorrow can always be better, you just don't know till you get there.
I was there with you man! Thank you for your service!
Thank you for your service. Because of all veterans, I AM FREE! You are appreciated. Stay strong.
Thank you for your service! I'm giving a virtual hug. Keep fighting, you are worth it!
I was a heroin addict for close to 15 years. I am six years sober, almost seven. It took EVERYTHING from me. I was living a life of death, every day trying to edge closer and closer to that one shot that puts me to sleep. I just didnt care anymore. I have been to more funerals than anyone I know, burying friends because of the life that we lived. With every casket that I watched get lowered into the ground, a piece of me went with it. I am 33 now, married with a family that I love dearly and a daughter on the way. But every day I struggle with this entity that is inside of me. I have a difficult time experiencing happiness because it has taken the feeling that I deserve it away from me. Social anxiety disorder dictates my life now and it makes every aspect of my life a struggle. Suicide is a constant thought that emerges. But my family needs me more than they need a headstone, so I push on with fierce determination and anger against these issues that afflict so many outside of myself. I HATE addiction, and I will damned if I let it take everything from me again, let alone, my life.
If you or anyone you know is struggling, do everything you can to show them you are there and that you care. Let them know that you need THEM, not a tombstone.
Stay strong man
I am a survivor of two failed suicide attempts and drug addiction. After failing my second attempt at suicide, I thought "Well, I guess I'm not good enough to die either." I was just waiting for something else to end me at that point, anything at all.
Saw Disturbed and Three Days Grace together two years back, and to hear Matt and David speak about the conflicts of depression, addiction, suicide just shattered my heart and I broke down in my seat. Broke down again to see all the lights in the air and the joined hands during "A Reason to Fight" and TDG's "Never Too Late." It was a wake-up call I needed to be alive to see.
The thing about Depression, Addiction, those demons that live inside your head, they rely on YOU. They need YOU to survive, they thrive off of YOUR emotions. They are nothing without you, without you, those demons cannot exist. And the day you can internally claim that piece of information in your heart, you reclaim a piece of your soul and gain back a sense of purpose.
I now have a successful job that I love. I have a wonderful, supportive girlfriend and her two daughters that I love even more. I have family and friends who are my support system, carrying me whenever it looks like I'm ready to collapse. I have reasons to fight now.
There's always a reason to fight. And even when you're fighting your battle, be sure to lend any spare strength to someone else who looks like they may be losing theirs; anything is better than nothing. Black or white, man or woman, adult or child, whoever you are, we are all in this together and we are all a family.
Please continue to fight, brothers and sisters. I'm glad you're here right now and I hope you are as well.
Disturbed's "The Light" video gets me every time
Me too!!

Disturbed - Hold on to Memories
As a suicide survivor and having battles myself this hits home,my uncle 5 years ago gave up his battle with breast cancer, my cousin Loren shot himself due to depression 8 years ago,my cousin Wendy 3 years ago hung herself due to depression from divorce,and our great family friend Jeff Norris found out he had terminal rectum cancer and gave up..suicide, depression, anxiety are no joke..I choose life..so should everyone..no1 should be alone during a personal battle..
I've never been a pateron with you guys,but I have been wanting an EVERGREY reaction for years,any way you could do AFTERMATH by Evergrey? You won't be disappointed I promise,in light of the Suicide Awareness issue,this is a deep and meaningful song for me as are EVERGREY one of Sweden's finest,love you guys always
And this right here is the reason I love Disturbed. The messages they bring are great messages for the good of humanity. This particular song means a lot to me because of my son's addiction. He's now eight years sober. He rose from the ashes. He isn't any longer the son I birthed, but he's a new son, a new man. I also came very close to the end myself at about the same time. The only thing that stopped me was, quite frankly, my cat. I felt at that moment like she was the only living creature that cared about me at all, and I couldn't bear the thought that there would be nobody to care for her. That was the very fine thread that kept me from going over the cliff.
I love David Draiman and Disturbed. This song and others of theirs carry messages we all need to hear. Thank you, David and all the band members. You're the best. Blessings upon you all.
This hit me hard. I suffer from depression because of so many reasons. Everybody on both sides of my family suffer from some sort of addiction to the point that they have betrayed each other to the point they don't talk to each other anymore. Seeing that everybody suffered from it my whole entire life has left me scared seeing it as a kid growing up. Another blow to my depression is when I hit 15 years old I nearly died from Crohn's disease when it took doctors almost a year to find it. And having nobody to talk to about it has been the biggest struggle for me. I just know Crohn's disease has put me into a bottomless pit of depression but at the same time it has kept me from doing drugs which considering how both sides are bad with addiction that I know for a fact that I wouldn't survive it if I started doing drugs. I'm turning 26 in October and it's been 10 years battling with the depression from Crohn's disease and it feels like I'm losing that battle everyday especially with growing up with addiction my whole life. I'm sorry for posting this.
Stealth's Metal don’t give up dude!
Stealth's Metal Don't ever feel sorry for expressing your feelings and emotions, don't ever feel you can't talk openly. I've been suffering with depression for 35 years and it's hell but you always find a reason to keep going. Keep Fighting, YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
Hey Vin, Hey Sori. Don't know if this will get to you or anyone for that matter. But I wanted to share my story to support the village. So here it goes...
I was physically, mentally, and sexually abused from the ages 3-12 by my father. At the age of 7 to 11 I started drinking whenever I could to numb the pain. At the age of 11 I got into drugs like heroin, meth amphetamines, tobacco, and cocaine.
I'm 18 now, and I managed to quit all that thanks to a lot of the music that you guys have listened to. Ever since I found your guys' channel it has helped me as well. I believe I first discovered the channel back when you guys reacted to Pearl Jams "Jeremy". But anyways, I have a loving girlfriend now who is the love I've been searching for. I thank god everyday that she fell in my lap, I'm truly grateful. I may still have nightmares about the hell I went through and I know the war is not over yet. But I know that this will be an uphill battle, but I'm ready to fight it.
But anyways, cheers and thanks for all the wonderful content!
Wow dude, thank you for sharing. That’s so brave of you. You are an inspiration to us all!
A big big biiig hug for you from Uruguay
@@guarazu.comics Thank you! 🤗
Keep fighting X, we are all apart of the greater good of the universe. I fight my demons every day.
What a horrific story.. Such an inspirational story for overcoming such grueling trauma. Thank you for sharing X. God bless you, hope all is still going strong!
I'm so proud that you chose to pick this video. As of 1/3/23, I'm a little over 16 years sober of alcohol and drugs. My best friend & I saw them in Lincol, Nebraska. Took him there for his birthday. His biggest birthday present ever, but I was proud to have him by my side. We are BOTH sober about as long as the other. EVERY TIME I hear that song, I cry my eyes out, because it reminds me where I used to be, but now I know where I am and David Draiman has done a MASTERFUL job at portraying his message. God Bless !
Sober for 9 years and 4 months from opiates. Love this song, I also suffer from depression and anxiety ever since my big brother and only sibling passed in 2007.
I battle depression and anxiety everyday and I've once tried to take my own life. There are people that care. I thank my family and friends that care about and for me! There's ALWAYS a reason to fight! I'm not alone, WE'RE not alone! #LetsKeepFighting
Just two years ago two of my very best friends were found hanging.. One of them was found in the woods hanging from a tree. I still cry about it. God rest there souls. Soon after i tried to overdose on purpose and was found just in time. Im lucky to be alive god willing. I must be here for a reason. Bless u guys! (Truth: seeing sori cry made me cry too) r.i.p axle and big jim. I miss you both everyday.
I've seen them perform this song live at a relatively small venue and David gave his speech to fight and it's just as powerful as it seems. He also asked those who have attempted suicide or know someone who did keep their hands up and said your still not alone.
When I saw them, they performed this with suicide hotline numbers on the screen instead of them. They would rather you see that than them.
Thank everyone for sharing your stories....mine I have been fighting for over thirty years of depression tried to commit suicide twice once with a razor and the second time with a gun..the gun misfired...to this day I look back and realize I would not have my kids now if I did that also I did not realize how it would have affected my family and friends....if you are going through this reach out to someone anyone .... thank you so much everyone Vin Sori thank you for being here with us
It's so strange that I found this video today. I'm in it deep. Long holiday weekend. Dealing with everything life is throwing at us these days. I definitely have addiction and depression issues and I've been hospitalized for both in the past. Thank you for being so open about your issues. I'll make a call today. I feel less alone after watching this. Thank you.
Keep us updated!!
And...losing a sister and a daughter, I battle with this every single day 😔
This band is so powerful and im going to be forever grateful for them and their music. They are similar to Five Finger Death Punch in the ways that they bring to light situations that occur everyday and i am eternally grateful for bands and people like them. Thank you for making this video for us to enjoy.
David Draiman begins concerts with the words "My Brothers, My Sisters... My Blood"
I saw them live last year at Hershey, PA. This segment dedicated to depression where they play this song, Sound of Silence and others brought the whole venue to tears and respect.
Another survivor here! July 2017 it was...the darkest time of my life. Didn't care I already had 2 boys. The pain and suffering were bigger. 3 days taking pills after pills after pills and nothing happened, and when I say nothing is nothing, not even libber damage. Couple days later had the most powerful encounter with God, He kept me and keeps me here. My time is not done yet, my mission in this life is not complete yet. Overcoming that moment has been extremely difficult, nobody to understand it, it has been just Him, me and my Bible.
If there is anybody else suffering stay strong! There is always hope! God bless you all!
Hi there. I am very sorry for what you have been through. And i am happy that you are fighting through the aftermath of those events.
Also i wanna thank you for reacting to this video. More people should react to it cause is very meaningful. I myself was at the evolution concert Disturbed had in 2019. I was at the one in Romania since thay is the country i am from. They do this thing at every concert. At least 1-2 people get on the stage to tell their story and they show us we are not alone.
I am also battling depression and Disturbed are one of the main reasons i was able to fight it and be on top of this. Disturbed's music saved me in so many ways and gave me the power to rise above my problems and not give up.
My respect to you and all the people out there that fight addiction or depression or any kind of mental health problem and not just that. Keep on fighting always cause there is a reason to fight.
This is why Disturbed has taken their level of music to a whole new positive level!! November 8, 2020 I lost my baby sister at the young age of 33 to the demon of addiction. This is the anthem to the act of dealing with and overcoming depression and addiction
One of the best and most original reactions I’ve ever seen. Don’t remember ever being so moved by a reaction. The honesty in it and the story is truly moving. As someone who has lost someone really close and I have the exact opposite reaction. I missed the calls because I moved and changed numbers on my main phone but had my old phone. Found out one of my best friends killed himself. Looked at old phone 85 missed txts and calls.
this is why i like this channel.bcs everyone here is ''real'' people.
survivor here! if you see me in the comments say hi.
lets me know im not alone. deep waters and hard to say it.onions suck!
I balled. I can't tell you how long I've been dealing with depression. I keep going tho.. everyday and I can't thank everyone who's been there for me enough. I thank you guys for being cool with me and putting out videos and being part of the reason I'm starting my reactions so thank you🙏🏻🖤
This Saturday (May 30) will be 10 years since my older brother took his life aged 30 (I'll be 40 next year). Big love to everyone out there who has lost someone or who has found themselves lost in the darkness but come out the other side ☺
Also my partner of just over a year recently revealed to me that she had attempted to take her life as a teenager, and has found herself in abusive relationships in the following years, so I will be doing my darnedest to make her feel supported and cared for.
Depression has always kinda been what i call "the family curse." Many members of my family suffer from it and ive been fortunate enough not to suffer from it. I lost my uncle to depression and alcoholism last year. Well technically it happened in 2018 when his liver started giving up but last november he passed away. I think the stigma comes from the perception that addicts dont care about the people surrounding them and theyre being selfish by pursuing their drug of choice over all else. The reality is that most of the time theyre fully aware of how badly their life is going and they do care about what their addiction is doing to their loved ones but they cannot physically stop without a lot of help.
Finally i wanna recommend listening to blue october. Specifically their songs hate me, the feel again (stay), and fear. All wonderful beautiful songs about real experiences with depression, anxiety, divorce, and recovery.
Ya, i have a lot of people in my life who have struggled with addiction, suicidal thoughts, and friends who have committed suicide. It sucks. I'm just glad i've had God in my life, because i may have seen the same fate. Vin, i appreciate you sharing that story as well. God Bless!
Hey guys,
I'm a solo mum with 2 amazing kids, been fighting depression for years.its a 24/7 battle.i got sick of saying 'im fine' when I knew I wasn't.i knew I had to do something,coz I wasn't hanging on by much,so now I've been on meds for over 2 years & hate that I have to rely on them.
Disturbed are one of my favorite bands & that's one amazing song.Its so awesome how they're bringing awareness to depression.i recently got my first tattoo,the message behind it,is to never judge a book by its cover.
Anyways, sorry for the novel,💖💖💖💖💖 Yas from 🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
@@johntrooper5310 thank you, just saying,one of my favorite songs ever 💖👍🎶💖👍🎶💖👍🎶 awesome song/band/message 🎶🎸🔥🎶🎸🔥🎶🎸🔥
Amazing song.
Epica - Kingdom of heaven
I've been watching both of your reactions to music for years and I've managed to help people who gave up on love by showing them your love for each other
I feel ya Vin. My mother also took her life. Carbon monoxide, car in the garage. My 10 yr old brother was asleep in the back seat....he also perished. Many friends that I grew up with have been lost due to drugs and alcohol. This song gets me everytime I hear it.
I still struggle with the thoughts of suicide. I've lost a lotta energy and sleep arguing with the demons inside... It takes a heavy toll on ur mind and body every day the struggle continues. Some days r better than others, but it never goes away... 😖😖😖
hope you'll get better soon brother
Thank you for sharing your story. Life can be so hard. I’ve suffered from depression most of my life and suicide is never far from my thoughts.
I wanted to say that I don’t blame my brother for anything it has always been dormant in me. I will never be able to get past the fact that while my brother was dying at work that I was out getting high. Just hope he’s glad to see that I cleaned my act up.
Aside from the song thank you for sharing your stories. The world is a cruel place but the more we can promote unity through mediums like this is one step closer to a better world.
The procrastination method was what's worked for me: I don't have to end it now, I can always end it later. I've had depression since about 2016 and felt very suicidal for most of that time, but while depression is still my default mode, I've had waaay more good days over the past year and I haven't been nearly as fixated on catching the bus even on my many bad days.
This channel has been no small part of that personal improvement and in improving my relationship with God. I know I've thanked you in the past for the impact you've had in my life, and I'm saying thank you again.
I'll keep you in my prayers as you come up on that anniversary in a little over a month, and for clarification, did you say your mom also killed herself or was her death unintended?
I did this too for a long time. Eventually I got a rescue dog and now can’t end it cause he needs me, also now I’m generally curious to see what happens in the world, lot of good movies and series coming out in the future 🙃
You need to listen to Hold on to memories please
One of the BEST Songs/Videos of this Century !!!!!
This was probably the only song thag got Graspop Metal Meeting of 2019(metal festival in Belgium) completley quiet!
Every time I hear this song I get something in both of my eyes
I wasn't expecting to cry tonight but here I am.
My Mom and younger Sister were killed in an auto crash when I was 21. I suffered through drug addiction before that and attempted suicide. After that I only got worse! Alcoholism, crime, jail, rehabs and more. 30 years later and failed relationships I'm still effed up. I lost my Father last summer! He died in the same month and just days from day my Mom and Sis died. I overdosed in Nov. and went to rehab. I'm still suffering from alcoholism and depression today. I truly believe that I cannot get better. I just got arrested for DUI last week and things are really sucking big time especially with this damn pandemic going on. Disturbed are a great band! I got to hang out with them backstage at an Ozz-Fest many years ago.
So many friends have committed suicide and overdosed! My first friend that killed himself was when we were 12. Shot himself in the head with a shotgun. I shot myself when I was 19. Pretty silly though!
Thank you so much for this. My close friends’ cousin committed suicide last week. She was a Miss Universe NZ finalist and by all accounts a wonderful person. Another beautiful soul gone too quickly. For anyone out there who is fighting with demons, you aren’t alone. Please ask for help.
Went through something terrible today... and this pops up... God thank you for this message!
Hey you two should listen to stricken
Their music helped me through a lot of rough times. I met them back in 2016 and they are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met.
You guys give the most honest reactions to these videos. I saw Disturbed perform this on their last tour, they pulled up a local guy with his own story. It was a deeply emotional moment. To this day when I rewatch your reaction to Five Finger Death Punch- Wrong side of heaven it brings a tear to my eye. Real emotions, real sadness. Thank you.
Please react to Opeth - Burden
I've been through depression and I tried to take my own life on many occasions. But I didn't because I had support from very good friends and family, but even still to this day I'm still battling depression and now I'm not fighting alone because I now have a very wonderful girlfriend and I'm grateful every single day.
This song helps alot. I have tried 4 times and also have a sister that took her own life. After losing her I got help and I will beat the demons in her name
im glad you guys dont get blocked. at least from what i can see , been listening to alot of these guys lately, many of them hit me, and also seem to give me some inner peace
just your intro made me gut-laugh with delight! fun to find you tonight! 💓i forgot to add: "We are...disturbed!"
All this emotional speeches and low key piano music and David’s soothing voice do the opposite effect on me and encourage me to be more suicidal. Kinda weird how my brain works. I hope i am the only one who feeling this and no one else.
What? That's pitiful!
I am about to be 16 years sober.... I would have been 33 years sober... I relapsed at 12 years sober and a suicide attempt.... THIS IS A POWERFUL VIDEO... AND SONG... BIG HEART DAVID DRAIMAN AND DISTURBED
Its bands like disturbed that keep my head above water after my grandfather passed
Given Up - Linkin Park
Hate Me - Blue October
I am not a person who can convey his feelings well outside. When I saw this video, I had to cry for the first time in my adult life. This is probably due to the fact that I know addiction from my close family. Please excuse my english. That is not my mother tongue. 💔🤟
Vin and Sori-
you have 2 t shirts coming from me. 2 seperate orders from ebay. one size large. one size xl. hope i got the right sizes.. one for each of you, i appreciate your channel and what you do!
This one is for sure a deep one. Probably your guys most personal reaction so far.
Kia kaha (Stay strong)!
Ollie w Ka Pai bro
I havn't been depressed for a long time, I've almost forgotten what it was like. But you pretty much always know ppl that are struggling.
For another tearjerker, try "Tearjerker" by Korn. It's less uplifting and inspiring, but being sung by the same dude that sang "Daddy", well... it's contextualized. It got me through some dark times when I felt the same way.
The light by disturbed, had a beautiful lyrics too.
Thank you so much for all you have to say and shared. I shared your video to Facebook in hope it can help someone. Keep up the fight! Love you guys! Thanks for sharing.
Hi guys. In New Zealand we unfortunately boast the highest rate of male suicide between the ages of 18 and 30 in the western world and Māori ( native peoples of nz ) are the highest represented. I appreciate you guys doing a review of this song
Thank you for sharing your story. I can feel your pain in this video.
Love true emotions! Real people, real talk!
Thank you guys!
I loved that you shared your story.
Beautyfull song with a Great message
I have listened to this song a thousand times and have always appreciated the gravity of it. Today I found myself on your channel at 5 in the morning watching this video in a pretty dark state. I dont have words but 🫂
Bless you sori. I was at this gig and what I gig it was. Sori is looking gorgeous and then seeing her cry broke my heart ❤️
#alwayskeepfighing
Never give up!! 🌹🌹✊✊👊👊
Heartfelt reaction, that’s why you two continue to be the best
I know many have told their stories and I would like to tell a little myself. I've been suffering from it when I was little and now have PTSD as well now. Tried ending it several times in the past. Back in 2016 I lost my dad due to it, when he took his life I was only about a foot away from him. I could keep going but I won't. Another song you should watch the video on is Disturb's Inside the fire (just a warning though it is hard to watch). Then watch the video on how David talks about why he written that song. It brings more light to the story.
I suffer depression its diffcult to get through the day sometime when I wake up sometimes I wish I never woke up at all but my son and my girlfriend and my family is the only thing that keeps me breathing with out them then life ain't worth living
This is all way too close to home. Thank you both!❤️✌️
Im new to your channel.i love you guys.your reactions are so very geniune. I love it
Thank you for reacting to this video.
Had the pleasure to see them live last summer experience that speech and it was out of this world to experience that. Battle my own demons and know several others dealing with theirs. Always trying to be there when they need it just trying to atleast be a little slither of light and hope. Never leave anyone alone
I have always loved them.they ALWAYS have been there for us.
I pulled my younger brother from a noose in 1988. He was gone and I held him for a long time and I tried to wrap my head around it. I still cannot. He had every reason to fight. I had no warning or at least I feel like I had no warning. Im ex military special forces and consider myself a tough MF but when I think about my baby brother and his demons tormenting him I want to fall to my knees and ask our lord why. Just why? Its a visual you will never lose. To pick your lifeless brother from a noose and hold him and ask God why? Why him? Looking back now depression is something we must all take seriously and I mean seriously. Please take stand. Like David said. Dont be standing there at their casket and ask yourself why. Say something please. Fight for them. Even if they want to reject your words. Call please. I love you guys. Please take your platform and fight for the helpless. You have that power and you are an inspiration to many.
This one toutched a cord on sorri. Wow what a true reaction
Even big vinn is toutched
I deal with it every single day. Prime example...there's a bridge on the way to a Tim Hortons about 5 or so minutes away from where I live. I go for a coffee run for the household multiple times and day some days. This bridge overpasses a major highway. I have an almost impossible battle not to do a nose dive off of it every single time I cross it to and from my Tim Hortons run. It doesn't help when my family only has me around when it's convenient for them, it seems.
This song was very powerful live and I relate to this song very strongly
Damn I felt this one to the core....
man, that was beautiful (:
I thank god everyday for you 2!! To the ones fighting, one day at a time. No one fights alone. Reach out to me, I got you!!
Just another reason why I love Disturbed. With that’s said I had a really close friend take his own life a few years back and there’s not a day that I don’t think of him.
My mom, my nephew, all my sisters... They've all considered or tried comitting suicide. It not easy, to just imagine the people I could've been missing right now. I myself have had hard time and even though I let it kick me down I never wqnted to take my life. I just stay down until it passes then I get up and move on from it. I have very high confidence in myself even if I have yet to really accomplish somethin, yeah I graduated (not an accomplishment in my mind), yeah I'm about to get my licencen (whatever), but work has been hard to find and been single for about 15 years. I have yet to go places and I'm 28... I've been bullied but always bullied them back even harder, I have Asbergers so being alone, not looking for friends, minding my own business in the shadows and not taking anything personally when trying to get to me and cutting ties is easy, because I know my and other truth so talking shit to me and my family I can't take offense to what I know isn't true, but I know most others take offense easier which gives me the advantage, I'm like B-Rabbit in that regard. You have no ammo for me but I have plenty for you ;)
Being odd has had me asking for unwanted attention but I've always made people regret it if poking me for the wrong reasons, I've never been afraid to throw down and recieving pain so unless you kill me I will keep coming at you to destroy you if that's the case. I've worked on removing the bad sides of my autism to improve my socializing like being in a crowd, keep eye contact, talk to people, start conversation, take the lead etc. It's no longer a problem for me, I still like being alone in my piece but I want my people to know I exist you know and I still excel at what I like to do or put my mind into. But again no matter how low my points in life has been I've never wanted to kill myself. So I guess my autism is like a shield, because I can take being at the bottom and just ride it out until I make it out. I hold myself too high to just end it even if the circumstances for it are understandable. It's wierd, I don't think I'm stronger than anyone NOT me, I just don't see what could make me take my life or get mad at you unless I want to be mad at you because you... I don't know... Ask for it/diserve it. I'm a giving person what can I say, hate to disappoint if I can help it hehe.
You guys need to listen to the song now.
Hey everyone. My name is Andrew, a 27 man from Alabama and I want to share my story. I was sexually abused when I was 5 years old by my ex stepfather. Even when my mom and I got away from that, I ended up living with my grandparents as well and watched my grandfather battle alcohol addiction for most of my life. I was bullied and abused in school, constantly attacked and hardly any friends. I later developed an addiction to alcohol and I’ve attempted suicide more than once. I have recovered from my addiction and I’ve been sober since 2018,but I’m still dealing with a lot of depression and anxiety to this day. I do what I can to make it by and I know I’m not truly alone in this battle, but there are many times I feel like I have no one to turn to who understands. I know I’m not perfect and I’m just some random dude making a comment on this video, but I’m here if anyone needs support and I wouldn’t mind some support myself. We’re all in this together and we can all make it through anything. Thanks for listening to me ramble on. Love this video so much and definitely an important message. God bless everyone
Hi Andrew. U can find me on FB, if u need someone to talk to.
Bless you and NEVER think your alone😘😍
Andrews thanks for telling us ur story. It means a lot to me. I am not feeling lonely anymore now ❤️
On a positive note, Sori, you look exceptionally beautiful😍 Vin, you a lucky fella😉 love you guys❤
Nearly ready.. its hard
But the question is this for me when you feel like how much more shit can you go through when is ENOUGH gonna be ENOUGH?
Please do VNV Nation - Illusion. Read about Sophie Lancaster and why this song is so important in the Goth community 💜
Please, react to "Hold on to Memories", the official live video. Another Disturbed's way of reaching out to people in such a beautiful way. They are so amazing. Sometimes angels are in disguise.
This song helped me when I lost my best friend, I was 17 when I was on the phone with her trying to help her with her depression then she shot herself when I was on the phone with her. This song brings back that pain but it helps me be there for others when they don't have anyone.
I miss you Izzy

Holy shit, I’m really sorry to hear that. That’s incredibly sad 😔
You must of meant a lot to her. Prayers to you.
After that Song you HAVE to listen to Disturbed - The Light. That Song has such a wonderful meaning, I think you both gonna like it.
