If you ever need someone to speak too please reply to my comment and we can exchange FB or emails etc and I'm always here if you need to talk my friend You're doing good ... Not turning to drugs or alcohol is by far the very best thing you can do for urself and sadly way too many ppl lose themselves after losing someone they love because they turn to the wrong outlets to face whatever they're grieving... Everyday even if you don't notice it you're getting a little bit stronger and while you're heart will never be the same you WILL learn how to live with this new way of life if you make the choice too... You got this 🎉
@Stranger_in_the_Alps. Your pain in palpable. My heart goes out to you. Depression is SO DIFFICULT. While you are walking in darkness please know there is light ahead. It may feel like there will never be a light. It took a long time for me to find that light but, I did FIND IT. You will find it. Please hold tight. Allow yourself the bad days. Search for the good days. You are in my prayers. Please know that you are not alone. There are so many out here who truly care about you. Please don’t ever forget that.
My sun turned black when my 2 month old son died from sids , I was angry at God, I slept 18 hrs a day and when I was awake I was throwing up,then one night Jesus brought my son to me, so I could say goodbye and gave me comfort and understanding 😊❤
I suffer with mental illness and still am.My mom passed away 3years ago and my sons mother passed away 2years ago as of yesterday and when my mom passed i lost my son and just about ended it but I kept fighting and I got my son back home and we lost my apartment and moved with aunt cuz step dad passed last Easter so I was taking care of her and she passed two months ago and now me and my son are currently homeless and I thought about quitting but I promise my mom I would never leave my son. Your song touched me brother you have talent 😢
this song seemed to come out of nowhere for my recommendations so I’m taking it as a sign that I needed to hear it. I feel this through my whole soul. This is a felt beauty.
I’m fighting depression, and I’m still alive because I want to make my little brother proud, so that one day I will see him again…one day I will see him in heaven.
The ONLY thing that saved my life was Jesus . Years of addiction, domestic violence, and depression and I finally got the courage to walk into a church I passed by every time I left my home. I felt so awkward and scared but the minute the door opened I was embraced and i met Jesus my savior he saved me and took away all my guilt I carried for so long. I am so grateful I have been renewed and had the opportunity to start over with a completely clean slate. My friends.. if u haven't yet I urge u to.. u will never be the same.
When I feel depressed i turn on as many lights as I can. Open doors if nice out. I clean the house. Sometime with my old 70s music playing. And I read Proverbs and Psalms. I thank God for all he has done for me. To know God is beside me is all I need. Ive been on that dark road. Drugs and Alcohol are not your friends.
Great Job ! Just don't even think about anything when you get in your head. Run outside look around and see the people moving around bc it tells you mind you're not alone. Then, for some reason and trust me I know the hardest part go somewhere random don't think about meeting up with anybody or anything just get yourself to a coffee shop somewhere it doesn't have to be the funnest place or your favorite just get around people see them talking monkey each other feel that connection cuz when you stay in that house in that room The only person you have to talk to is that person in your head that has nothing but bad intentions
Thank you for that comment for all of us to relate to. I’m thinking it’s time to leave the toxicity behind and connect with God to hopefully save my life from a long term self harm I’ve been purposely enduring. Be well, and may anyone suffering find peace and strength.
@LukeW91 You can do it. And the feeling of being sober minded will feel better than alcohol or drugs. I started at a very young age. But once sober a glass of water felt good to my body. It had only known alcohol for 40 years.
Been fighting for 6 years and still going. I’ve lost 5 people to suicide and I cannot tell you how hard this has been. I needed to hear this tonight. Thank you.
@your.local-loser (Sorry for the paragraph) I admire your perseverance and strength. We can’t forget those we have lost. I hope you find peace and healing and I am rooting for you!
I promise you God wants to heal you. Even more than that, He wants to give a whole new life. He chases after you everyday. You’re His precious one, but He can’t do anything if you don’t let Him.
I wrote a note, loaded the gun...got into bed, took a shot of scotch and was more than ready...when i realized it would be my mama bringing my 5yr old daughter home in the morning and THEY would be the ones to find me. I just couldn't imagine them having to deal with that. I got help, got clean (15yrs sober now) i still struggle with depression and im sure i always will, but i no longer feel hopeless. Now, Im actually a mental health/addiction counselor...Not all things can be taught by reading a book...its easier to talk to someone who's lived it. Prayers to all of you that are struggling
Isha kriya is the one life changing thing I do now, a gf of mine committed suicide While I was at her house two years ago and all I could think was why did she take me with her… I think part of our problem is being and living an American life we get so out of sync of how truly wonderful life is Supposed to be and so many things we don’t see & never told or even acknowledged of the thousands of wonderful things that we do do, we are criticized & judged & thrown aside in this culture rather than being protected, nurtured, & cultivated, u r loved & I hope u feel it🤗🤗🤗
I want to meet, hug and spend time with everyone who listens to this song and feels bad right now. I wish this were possible and we could heal together :')💛
My Son suffered from bad depression for years. But I kept praying and showing love. Now at 40yrs. Old he’s happy and fixing to have his first baby. Thank you, Jesus for lifting my Son up and healing him. ❤
@brandi.65 - news flash for you. If “ jesus” had anything to do with it, then your son wouldn’t have depression in the first place. He is alive and well not because of “ jesus” and “ prayers” it was because he was able to somehow fight through it. So good work on his part, not freaking jesus
@@m19y29 Jesus gave us all free will. Just because something bad happens doesnt mean it's his fault. Doesn't mean "Oh well if God was so loving then this, this and this wouldn't have happened." God isn't the reason he had depression, but he is the reason he doesn't. John 3:16 King James Version "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Get saved today ❤
Tbh I don’t even know if there’s a way to heal the depression each person experiences because each reason of depression are different to each other, for me I believe that the depression within me doesn’t leave but I learn how to control it because sometimes I gain strength to it and lessons of my life
Thank you so much god we need more people like you as someone who has been fighting depression and many other mental illnesses/disorders. It’s my birthday today I’m so surprised I’m still here after many many attempts but Im getting the “help” that I “need” I hope you have an amazing day/night
I recently lost my mother and father in a murder/ suicide and the depression is indescribable. I feel your pain. Writing my music helps me cope as well. But I'm quite confident that it will never completely go away.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I see you. I am sorry for that painful tragedy. No one should have to go through that. I think you are right. Sometimes the pain doesn’t go away. But when the pain won’t go away sometimes we can redirect that pain to accomplish something good and positive. I love you. I hope you’re doing well.
I was diagnosed at the age of 7 I've been living with it for 30 years the one thing I've learned is no matter what anyone says there is some one out there that loves you, and no offence to anyone I'm not talking about religion.
1:44 been there myself one evening I'd end up with a mouthful of tramadol and codine over 60 pills in half of them in my mouth and a bottle of squash. Parked up behind the church where my grandmother is burried, a police officer pulled up alongside my car, sees me and all the pills spread out on the dashboard, Amazing grace blasting over the radio by brother called me worried about our mum and the fact she was suicidal after loosing her husband our dad. At the time we'd lost our garage MOT business to a massive fire Fighting a loosing battle with the insurance company . My brother at the time unaware he had made me jump spitting out the pills from my mouth
I haven't listened as yet but my world turned black in 2002 when I lost my mom. I became so depressed for a period of time. But one day I heard the voice of the Lord Jesus saying and I quote "you are so busy being depressed that you can't see what's in front of you. That my friend was my second mother who God had placed in my life to continue this walk called Life amen. She has been and continues to be a mentor amen. May the Lord God Almighty continue to bless and keep you always 💯 Suzettte 🕊️
I haven't cried fr for ages. The last time I cry cried was when I was watching Rengokus death in demon slayer, and even then, I couldn't fully cry, or shed all the tears that I needed to both overr that and many other things.
My brother, well done. You've made me cry for the first time in five years, and the last time I did it was over my father's casket. I'm 16 and struggling with PTSD and depression, but this song's reached because I think I've found love, and that's given me hope. Thank you.
A few months ago, I was going down a conspiracy theory rabbit hole on TikTok. I’m usually a very optimistic person but, this nearly ended me. I was so anxiety ridden and so depressed, that I thought about ending it all. It was truly one of the most scary times in my life. I couldn’t even get up out of bed, without thinking that we were all being manipulated. I got out of it by returning to my childhood memories. Listening to music, watching Harry Potter. It got me out of the darkness and back into the light.
Stay strong Bro, we're still here so that must mean something. Doesn't matter if tommorow ain't better. As long as we're here, in present, living. And we'll live again, tomorrow, the next day, the next week, and many more. We'll live.
Im 16 too and 2 years ago I constantly wanted to die. But for some reason I decided to watch anime for the first time in years. It was violet evergarden that i watched, that day was the first time i had a good cry in years and i started to recover after that, i started sleeping better, I can actually socialize in school and eventually this willing to die disappeared. Now I'm trying my best to help others recover from their BIG SAD.
I'm 59. Been suffering with debilitating chronic pain for 6 yrs. Have severe depression, anxiety and PTSD. Every day is a struggle. I'm trying every day to hang in. I'm here.😢
The sun just turned black for me on August 22nd, I was diagnosed with lung cancer which has spread to my brain, im scared to death waiting for doctors to start my treatments, yes, my sun is black right now!!! God will see me through this though!! Thank you, lovely song!! ✌️
Ur comment bought tears to my eyes 🥺🥺 I'm so sorry to hear that, I do see u have faith in God nd i pray healing over u in Jesus name, the only devine healing can come from Jesus, he sees u!! I pray that God will give u the strength nd guidance u need to get through these terrible times, but keep the faith bc HE LOVES U!! ❤️ God bless u 🙏🏼
Thank you for your service to our country. Hang in there for the next chapters in your life. I have Bipolar, PTSD, anxiety disorder and agoraphobia. I'm disabled too. I'm only 52, but my body feels 85. Thank you for sharing your story.
You are not alone. We feel we are even in a crowd. I have tried, only to wake up week or two later in ccicu. That made me feel worse. Feeling failure once again by not being able to kill myself right. I hear 3rd time's a charm 😢
@@silkroad1201 sometimes laughing at your own jokes or crying at your own songs isn't necessarily cringe. That just means that you value what you created and you think it's genuinely good, and there is nothing wrong with that.
It feels like he’s acting to illustrate to you how “sad and emotional” this song is, because it isn’t particularly. Especially based on the title of the video. He’s selling something. I dunno put a bad taste in my mouth.
I’m a disabled veteran I did 6 years in the USMC. I broke my back and it took 10 surgeries to get me walking and moving around again. Lots of super dark painful days. I would think that ending it all would be so much better for everyone in my life. The pain and feeling of being such a burden. My wife of 26 years got me through the dark days and is still my rock. I still have bad days for sure but she got me through and I’m happy to say that I am still here and still fighting. I really love the song brother and I thank you for sharing it with everyone
It is great to hear that you were able to heal with the help of your loved ones. You are never a burden, especially not to all the people that love you ❤ Glad that you are feeling better! Take care🫶
@@satinbeesade1654 I wanted to say thank you for your reply to my comment. I really appreciate it and you are very kind. It’s the little things that add up to make such a great impact in my day. Thank you again
When I get depressed nowadays I pray and sing praise/worship songs. I used to listen to sad country songs which took me further down the dark rabbit hole. The praise songs give me hope and the willingness to try and crawl outta the sad.
Years ago I tried to take my life. I had just given birth to my 3rd daughter and my husband was off with yet another of his gfs. It was a black time. So in the midst of slicing my arm my baby started to cry, something she'd never done. That did it ! God spoke. Life hasn't always been kind after that point, but I made a promise that day that no matter what, I wouldn't waste the life I was given. So I try. There are people with more sorrow, look to the light and be thankful. I'm sure this won't help anyone but I felt the need to share. Thank you for a reminder and a heartfelt song. Bless you and hugs'n love 🤗🥰
Still fighting the black, writing poetry and song helps, my partner chose to die, leave his 13 yr old and me who loved him dearly, clearly our love wasn't enough❤
@@user-rh9fl9nn7x awww, so sorry about your loss Suzanne. I truly understand how it feels losing a loved one, my wife passed while having our daughter, wasn't easy for me though but I'm grateful to God for today 🙏. My deep and sincere condolences, how have you been? 🌺😢
Just remember these words It’s not you who wants to die It’s the illness trying to kill you These words are the reason I am still alive to write and share this. You are not alone x
Thank you. Thank you for this astonishingly simple yet life changing statement. It seems like it should’ve been so obvious all these many years now that I’ve read your words…w all my heart and soul, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!!!! Keep fighting to LIVE!!!!!
Okay brother I Ben there too many times to count but I came to realize it's only darker from the inside out but at the same time we learn from those darkest moments we over come an you will to and who ever else reads this just know there is a light 🕯️
The sun turned black in Jan 10, 2010! My baby boy Connor died and birth, I asked my ex wife to watch my kids, she ended up taking them hiding and getting me for abandoning my 2 children. So I lost 3 children that year. I was walking in circles, with no where to go and no purpose. I was and am a strong Christian. I was so hurt I couldn’t even look up to God because I was so angry, Hurt! When I started talking to God and my sister? The sadness began to leave me. I was in this position for almost a year. I give God the glory for all the good, bad, and the ugly. Father if anyone here is reading this? I ask you touch them and take they’re depression and replace it with your joy, happiness and love amen
Pain never fades when you love with all of your might. But you can turn all of your pain into a beautiful memory and do something in their name. Life is what you make of it. Love to live and live to love
The pain stays the same. You learn how to live with it over time. Somedays it hits you as hard as the day it happened. Other days a smile crosses your face over a thought from long ago
I am currently 17 and this song took me back to the time when I wasn’t able to see any light at the end of the tunnel. I was 11 when I lost my mom to cancer. It was a very hard phase for me and it still is when during the nights i start reminiscing my memories with her. But somehow at that point I picked myself up and decided to make my mom proud. After a few years passed by, in 2022 I lost one of my best friends, which triggered everything that I was holding inside. It was a very very dark place for me because of all this and also because I was in my high school and I had a lot of pressure of studies. I was never good at them, so it was hard for me to cope up with things and live up to the expectations of my family. At the same time my father decided to get married again, and I was totally not okay with it, so that built a whole lot of stress in my mind too, because it was hard for me to look at someone else in my mom’s place. I used to have suicidal thoughts everyday, extreme anxiety, and I tried one or two times to end myself and give up but every time what kept me going was the belief that my mom was watching from up there and that I had promised her that I will make her proud. Till date I am fighting with all those thoughts but I can proudly say that I am much better and that I didn’t give up. So all I can say to the people who are going through all of this is that there are many people out there who look upto you and who actually care about you, even when it doesn’t seem like it trust me there are. And you should start believing that if our good days don’t last long, our hardships won’t either. One day all of this darkness will come to an end and you will look back and proudly say to yourself that you did it, you didn’t give up. So take one step at a time, believe in yourself and just know that many people are out there to help you, you just have to ask for it, even if it’s hard, just try once, trust me it makes everything a lot easier. And for all the people who have been fighting all of it for a few years or months, i am proud of you. You are doing amazingly well, and you are very strong. Just don’t loose hope, the light will find it’s way to you. YOU ALL CAN DO IT!! ❤❤
Hey dear I can feel you ... I lost my mom before 8 years, and currently I’m 22 years old. In my channel you can find what I have written for my mom titled “purity “
A really Nice example for people who thinks that,You did it well,i'm sure that you're Mom it's proud of You 100%,things like this makes me feel more motivated for keep trying,thanks You very much for share you're history
I lost my mom this year only a month ago. She was my best friend. She was there for me for 2 years when I was battling 2 types of cancer. By the grace of God I beat it after fighting those 2 years. Sadly my mom wasn't as lucky because she couldn't beat hers. I sometimes feel like I let her down. She could help me but there was nothing I could do for her. I miss her more than anything. I just want my mom back.
I am so sorry for your loss. I know just how you feel becuz I lost my mom & best friend 4 yrs., 4 mos. ago and it still hurts so much! I miss her every single day. We never stop grieving. 😥💔😭
I'm so sorry you are going through this and im happy for you that you beat cancer. I lost my dad to cancer when I was 10. He was my rock, the only one i have ever fully trusted.. and I still struggle with his lose at 35. I wish you all the best. You will see your mother one day and I can assure you she is looking down and so very proud of you, you didnt let her down. Keep living life with love in your heart. ❤
Well, i've been suffering from OCD since my childhood. I have lost my 5 years because of my terrible OCD and i'm still fighting, now i don't cry anymore because it seems like no tears left inside me, sometimes it feels like i'm burning from inside as i've lost all my friends because of my terrible mental health conditions. l literally feel lonely, sometimes even feel like i'm stuck in this body but i'm figuring my ways to find the meaning of my life. The meaning of success for me is to at least add a little value to some people lives and i don't really fancy getting any materialistic fullfillments. I just want to live a decent life peacefully.
Jesus is the only real help ❤ He can deliver from any thing that torments us! He delivered from anxiety and depression and healed me when my kidneys were failing but not my kidneys are healed and I’m no longer anemic! Only Jesus
Bro this life is meaning full I just suggest you to know about Krishna and pray or understand Krishna he given us geeta a book who have every answer and Krishna is hindu God he suffers alot in his life I may help you 😊
I realised that last night. I feel like I am sooooo alone and so scared that I have to carry on another day/week/month/year with this feeling. I feel homesick for a place that's was never home and heartbroken over a love I have never had and its hurting.
It takes a very very special person to be called 3 days in a row from a suicidal friend. A depresssd person who would be too shamed and embarrassed to call anybody but the suicide hotline , you must be an amazing amazing friend. God bless you. For a depressed person to not be ashamed to call you 3 days in a row they must know you can be trusted at every single cost and you are indeed a special human. I don’t know anyone like you. I wish I did. You don’t know how valued and special you are. I hope you read this.
Jesus loves you and wants to save you. He died on the cross to free us from sin and hell. He loves you and wants to change your life. If you feel like receiving him as your Savior in your heart, just say from your heart and confess with your mouth: Lord Jesus, I accept you as my only and sufficient savior, write my name in the book of life and cell with your blood and forgive my sins, change my life, amen. Big hug family ❤. Jesus loves you
I’m a stranger, but I care. How is that possible? Because I know that you are worthy of abundance and you’re God’s creation. You are magnificent in your own way. 🙏
I struggle with depression and anxiety everyday. I wish everyday it would just go away. I pray that no one has to go through this because it leaves you feeling hopeless 💔
My sun turned black when my son's lifeless body found. Arrested my eldest son for his murder. I went to inpatient care because I was not safe to be alone. I use music, I talk it out, and I have a great support system.
Bless you 🙏❤️ xo #RIPMYBOY 🕊️ Casey Durham 🕊️ xoxo Love you so much miss you like nothing of this world 🌎 💔 xoxo 1985 _ 2022 .... God how I miss you man .. love always and until we see each other again { Moms } xoxo #Wareagle #Lookgoodfeelgood 🙏
That's terrible, the old story of Cain & Abel. So sorry for your loss & family tragedy. My mother was devastated when my younger brother Kevin died, even more devastated when her 5 yr old granddaughter was killed in a car accident. RIP Kevin & Rozlin "Rose" 🌹💔😥
When my sun turns Black I listen to music, reach out to my husband and children anyone that will listen and I have learned to feel something and let it go, I would ruminate on things over and over. You got to feel it , be mindful of it and let go. Easier sad than done but it's a learning process, get out in the sunshine if it's cold make a comfy place to go. Rest. I have thought of harming myself because my brain doesn't stop. But I would never hurt my family or friends with me checking out. It does get better and then sad again and better. We ebb and flow through emotions all day . We always look to be future for happiness. Be present in today and do things that make u happy in that present moment. Hang in there humans. I am too❤
I'm 61 and have suffered with depression all my life. I had a wonderful childhood great parents and 4 beautiful sisters. Been married to my husband for 43 years . Started seeing each other at the age of 16 .we have to grown amazing daughters, one married to a wonderful man they have given me 4 grandchildren who are my heart. It's been a struggle for me not knowing what makes me feel so sad inside lonely even when I'm with my in a room of family and friends . I hide it well but sometimes the pain is so deep inside of me. It's like I'm screaming and no one can hear me. 😢😢😢😢😢
I'm 34 a Marine Veteran and this hit me so deep I actually had me first good cry in a long time. I'm gonna fight everyday but I will never lose. Because I don't have a choice. My family needs me here.
Praying for you and hoping you can find something that helps to relieve your pain...if you like animals, please look into getting one of those special dogs who are rescued and trained to help with PTSD. You will save the dog and I think the dog can save you.
I am a man with little time left. God is where I find my refuge. My sun turned black a long time ago when at 17 my addiction started. First I lost my family, then my business, lost my home, and then lost the respect and love of family and friends. Drifted around in my addiction for years 30 years to be exact. At the end I was physically, mentally, and spiritually broke. Went to AA I was directed there to God. Then about 3 years ago I went on a trip to Michigan from NC I listened to the Bible going and coming I got thirsty for more, so I have been reading the true word every since. I had a moment of suicidal tendencies and called mental health and checked myself in. I returned home and something started to grow on the inside. I kept reading and I got better. My relationship with God and faith is what is healing me. Love God, believe and have faith, just the size of a mustard seed and your thinking will change.
That’s amazing! So glad to hear that you are doing better and I hope you know how valuable you are, and care about (and treat) yourself as you should now: with love - from someone who somehow overcame self-hatred by the power of the living spirit of Jesus Christ in me (and thru his unconditional love and forgiveness/grace 💕)
My sun turned black March 30 2024 when my best friend died. I’ve fought depression my whole life. I find the light by remembering the good times. Never give up…✌🏼❤️
I lost my dad to suicide 3 weeks ago. It was his 2nd attempt, his 1st attempt was last year. He OD’d and survived, but was never really the same and it broke my heart. 3 weeks ago I found him hanging from a tree in our backyard, his youngest son (I’m 20)… He tried so hard for so many years, therapies, medications, you name it, we tried so hard as a family unit to support him but ultimately he couldn’t fight the battle anymore. I sacrificed most of my adolescence to be at home because I wanted to be with my family. My dad was my best friend, as a result of trying to help him with his mental illness we developed a very unique and open father son relationship. He just felt like he was a burden to us and holding me back, but I was more than happy to sacrifice anything to rather stay in with him and do something at home with him, if anything at all. I preferred that. Not gonna get too sappy with this, but I just really fucking miss my dad and just want one more bear hug, even though I’m 20 lol. I just want to look up at him again and call him Daddy one more time. Love you dad, I don’t think the grief will ever get better with time, it just changes form slightly, but it’s still ever so painful as the day I found you. I miss you so much, I can only hope and pray that you’re at peace now. 🖤🖤🖤
So sorry to hear your pain Jonathan, I understand from personal experience of being at the place of desperation to commit suicide, I think I know partly where your dad's thoughts and feelings were at as he was going through the battle of should I or should I not leave this world. Please You must not put any blame on yourself for this ..... its not any of your fault why this happened. I have learned from my recovery of suicidal tendency that I was not able to focus on what my family members would go through experiencing my taking my own life, especially the person who would find me. The mental illness and depression takes away your ability to be rational, logical or think straight, it just sucks you into a place of lostness and all hope has gone. Sorry if I seem to be going on and on but I am trying to say to you, do not be hard on yourself and blame any of this on yourself as your grief process unfolds in your life. God bless you and I pray that you will be comforted by the people around you who love you very much 🙏
Im thinking of you,i pray for you,im also a Dad,a grandfather a husband and was also almost there,may God bless you,keep you strong and just remember all the good what he have done,keep your head up and Never give up,love you my son although i dont know you,God blessings for you and the family
Lazarus, George, thank you for sharing your experience and reaffirming that God is the only way we can get through insurmountable challenges that we as fleshly Men can’t beat alone, but only through the spirit of God and his Son. I know that it wasn’t my fault, nor my families. But to see the person you love so much suffering is an indescribable pain. Even through his darkest moments, he still had Faith. And that is the only thing that really matters. I can understand why he did what he did, I’ve been diagnosed with major depression at 18. Although I’ve never had suicidal tendencies, I do understand to an extent the suffering that’s involved. Depression is rough on my Dad’s side of the family, he lost 2 family members to suicide as well. This silent killer is devastating in my family, but I will remain Faithful and thankful for what I have, and I WILL break the cycle even if it’s the last thing I do. Thank you for reminding me I’m not alone and other people have been through stuff like this, it’s easy to get sucked into a black hole and feel completely alone. God bless both of you. George, ek sien Oom is ook Afrikaans. Ek ook, wat is die kanse dat ek in een van my mense vas loop op die internet? Dankie vir Oom se woorde. 🙏🏼
I lost both of my parents to Covid last year, two weeks apart. It was so hard for the first 6 months. I was 15, man. (Now 16) No kid should ever lose their parents that young. But I’ve managed after a deep depression that somehow didn’t take my life. (Ruined my grades though haha) The sun turned black for 6 months, but it shined again and I’m okay now. Well, maybe not fully, but I’m getting there. I love you mom and dad, and I’ll see you again my loved ones.
You sound incredibly strong. 15 is so young to endure such hardship, but hopefully, by the sounds of it, you will share your struggles and be relatable to people that need support the most. Making your existence so valuable. Best of luck 🙏
@@Robinhood179 - I am so sorry you've experienced this pain, too. It sucks and makes you angry at the world. I dream about my dad mainly almost nightly, but my mom does appear every other dream with them in it. I was closer with my dad.
The day my husband passed away. He was 31 and I was 34. He left 3 children behind. They were 13, 10, and 3. I only made it because of my children and God. That first year is still a blur. With my faith which at that time I guess I was a little lost. Thank God for helping us get past it all. Sometimes I hate him for not helping himself to live for us. You see, he past away from alcohol poisoning. That should explain everything.
Thank-You! For this song. I’ve been suffering with depression since I was 10 years old. I’m now 54. I have severe scoliosis. Had Harrington rod surgery when I was 10, in 1980. I have not grown in my spine since the surgery. Just about Every muscle in my body is a mess and di am in pain 24/7. I’m also type 1 diabetic, I have had insomnia for the last 8 years, plus a few more health issues. It’s just never ending with me. I have no friends, and no one wants to love this.
My sun was black from 2017 to 2020. I'm an alcoholic and I've been sober since December 3, 2020. It was a horrible life I was living. Depression is all consuming. Thank you for giving us an outlet. You are definitely a blessing. Thank you!
Alcoholism is so very painful for the addict and more so to the loved one. Semi colon tattoos are mental health awareness. Suicide. Depression. Anxiety
Hi Cannon thanks for the beautiful song. Yes I suffer from depression and anxiety and I am seeing a psychologist. I have given my life to our Lord in 2008 and I am still on track. I lost my fiancee 6 weeks before our wedding and that triggered a ripple effect for me. He just had a massive heart attack while I was in church and he was at my house that morning he came and took me to church and then he usually stays there and we spend the day together when I get home but he was a corpse in my house. I was devestated and a few weeks later I was in hospital the anxiety that happened in 2022 October 22nd. Still miss him and and struggling to get used to him not bring around. I am.on medication which helps but there are days that I just cry continuously and I stay on my knees and pray to our Father who is the only one who can help us. I pray that you and your friend will go for counseling or see a therapist. Everything of the best for you all. God is great we must just believe. On Monday I had one of those never ending crying days. I pray that we will all get through this eventually. Thanks again for the beautiful song. God Bless.❤❤
The saddest part of my life. I lost my mom at 14 and my dad at 15. Glad the sun came back out for me. I would imagine saying goodbye to a child so much harder. My heart goes out to those parents.
I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder in 1995. In 1997, my uncle promised we would beat depression together as he believed depression was part of the devil. 4 days later he was found in his apartment from suicide. To this day, I still remember his last words to me and hold on to my end of our promise. 25 years and still hard some days.
Don't give up. I lost my mother to this as a young boy. Whoever you've lost. Would never wish for you to dwell on and live your live based on their death or suffering. Help who you can and do your best.👏
I lost everything at 15 no home no family no love no friends no money no hope no future...... 23 years later not alots changed but i will not quit i will never give up i know greatness is made through difficulties. Stay strong keep moving forward!!!
3:11 am my daughter was going through the worst time of her and I, as a mother, was in the tunnel with her! She was being attacked from all around! The sun turned black several times and all I knew was to try and encourage her or just listen to her! The pain that your child is suffering and there is nothing you can do but get on your knees and pray to God with all your soul and might to the Almighty God! The miracle that me God did for her and He didn’t let the enemy hurt a hair on her body! He broke the chains and shackles that were destroying her! She healed and now, I have my daughter back, stronger than ever and her faith has also been restored! Ty Jesus! ❤
God bless you and keep you. May the lord bring you peace. I’m deeply sorry for your loss. I’ve always believed my super power was being the biggest empath I’ve ever known I cry when others cry and can feel anyone’s pain. Keep going. You will see him again. This life isn’t the end it’s just a step.
My darkest day was losing my only sibling my beautiful big hearted brother & a week later my youngest son was born early & needed to go to the Nicu. I was so broken from losing my brother & then my sweet baby boy sick. I went into a very dark & lonely depression. My son is 22 & going to be married this May 2024 but I will always feel part of my heart is gone 😢😢❤❤
I live in Ohio and yes I have felt this way before!! I have since found myself and turned to God!! I no longer need alcohol or anything else in my life!! I live for myself and my children and grandchild!! Family and friends are great to turn to!! ❤❤❤✝️✝️✝️✝️
So very sorry. I definitely feel your pain. I too struggle everyday from the loss of my only child. She was 9 years old and she died in an auto accident. 1 year before her death, I lost my mother. Then again, 2 years after my daughter died, I lost my dad. It’s definitely not an easy journey, but GOD!!!
Damn Antonio, i too am a father. Its impossible for me to understand what u are feeling. But i know what its like to love like that. U have my empathy. I wish i could hug you bro.
I haven't heard it yet, but I know I'll cry. I lost my son at 34 overdosed. So I'm getting my tears ready. He was in Puerto Rico and I was in Colorado. My heart has never been so broken. In memory of my son, Joshua 06/03/2019 😥💔
My husband passed away March 28th 2020, and I'll never be the same. That next June would have been our 30th anniversary. Although the loss of my husband was awful, losing a child has to be worse. I have two sons, and I don't know how I would ever cope if I lost either one. My oldest son married a woman who somehow pushed me completely out of their lives, three grandsons and all. It's been almost 20 years since we spoke but he's alive. I can watch him online because he's a professor. So I have an idea where he lives. I cried a river of tears at that loss, so Shirley, you must have cried an ocean of tears and probably still do. I'm so sorry for your loss. I believe your son is in a better place, and you'll see him again someday. His Spirit is watching over you. I believe that with all of my heart because my husband gives me signs he's still with me. I feel touches, and I live alone. Just gentle poking so I know he's with me all the time. May God bless you with peace, love and strength.
GRATITUDE . I’m not gonna sit here and act like an expert or anything, but I’ve tried a lot of different Practices and thought experiments, but the one thing that by far helped me the most was to start a practice of gratitude every morning. It switches something in your mind makes you go from thinking Inward negatively, to thinking positively outside of yourself. no one thing will fix your life but Practicing real gratitude will absolutely change your life for the better.
A great thanks for this lovely song ❤ Here's some things you can do - 1. Go outside for nature viewing 2. Try drawing, yoga , dance , exercise etc. 3. Talk to your loved ones 4. Write a diary 5. Keep hope , talk to yourself for being positive 6. Read positive books listen to positive songs 7. Try to see yourself in another way the positive side of you and dream for big. ❤
this, as some random 14 year old kid, made me realize how little i know and how much i have yet to feel and learn at a time where i really needed it. Thanks dude, beautiful song and I hope everything's okay for you in life.
im 14 too. i feel like its the age where we really start to grow up and be accepted as a teenager. like yeah we are legally teenagers at 13 but 14 is just when we start to mature. i hope no one has to relate to this song but i know some people will and thats okay (sorry if this comment makes no sense)
As some random 14 year old, i hate my life. It's painful and I don't want to deal with school anymore. Last year was the best year of my entire life so far and this year is already looking down. Keep your life on a good track, cause when you're in a deep state you can never recover.
@@cockstealer bro i promise you no matter what has happened things will be better of all the things i could promise thats the one i'd emphasize the most. with time and life's trials people learn everything they know about life and i promise you one day if you never give up you'll learn and see for yourself based from those lessons things do get better you just gotta keep going and keep fighting for a view from the top
My brother committed suicide 4 months ago, we both come from an abusive family, i could talk about it, heal. He couldn't. I've been on my knees but feel his presence somehow. The feeling of hope is coming, life is so fragile, both fantastic and cruel. Thank you for this song ❤️.
My prayers are with you 🕊️ My sister put a .32 in her mouth when she was 21 and my Mom tried to take her life so many times,about the 3rd attempt we were in ICU and she was conscious but incubated, and I went off yelling at her why? Why? do you want to leave me so badly? Don’t you love me? If I have to be on this earth and suffer you have to suffer with me ! I think you’re being selfish ,only thinking about yourself and your feelings, what about the feelings of the people that love you? The people that will be hurt alone and heartbroken because of your actions. Then I asked her if it hurt (she sliced her wrists took pills and was in a ice cold bathtub for 2 days) technically she was DOA but the hospital tried a new tx to rewarm a hypothermic body, they said possibility of brain damage from bodies methane gases, remarkably she had no brain damage . She nodded her head yes that the suicide attempt hurt. I said Good! Are you going to try to do it again? She shook her head no. lol She never tried to kill her self again and she died a few years later from a massive brain hemorrhagic stroke. Cemeteries aren’t for the dead, they’re for the living . I pray for your healing and recovery 🙏🙏🙏✝️
I'm elderly. I've battled depression, mental illness, addiction, homelessness, sa, dm, and in and on. Hang on. Just breath. Count every breath as an opportunity to get better, then count every breath asan opportunity to help someone else. Cling to Jesus. I have pulled on the pillowcase as my connection to clinging to God. Cling to God. Pray. Don't give in to the devil. He ain't worth it. 💪🙏❤️
I lost my husband 12 years ago in a motorcycle accident. It was so difficult for my daughter and I. I turned to God and took one day at a time. Still now I have strong faith. I never gave up. The memories keep me living on🙏🏼🙏🏼
I'm very sorry about your husband, trust me I completely understand how you feel, I felt the same way when my wife past away June 4th 2018 grief is hard to deal with but we learn to live with it, where are you from ?
Last year I was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer and my other half left because of the illness. I was hurt and angry that someone I loved could just walk away when I needed them most. I'm much better now and stronger and I'm beating the cancer. Thanks for this song
Relatable senbding condolences. Dealing with relapsed lymphoma with secondary testicular. After telling the woman i wanted to only fight for to love she decided To ghost. Meeting her truly was the only time i felt the courage strength and happiness for a possible future, today i sit empty , again. Idk what to even do anymore. I pray for your recovery
@@thisdeaddog and @Ty Taylor I have no words. That's horrible what you've both been through. I'm so sorry. This World can be so dark and nasty. I'm so happy you are beating it the cancer Ty and I am 🙏🏻 praying for recovery for both of you!!!!! Keep on fighting. Best wishes!!!
The Sun has turned black for me a lot of times. I'm 16 and I'm autistic. I have been bullied nearly all my life and had nasty rumours. I wasn't just bullied at school, but I was bullied and made fun of outside. When I was 13/14, I was severely depressed and suicidal. Towards the end of Year 9 (8th grade), my life was getting better. I found Jesus, and my life has gotten better ever since. I started working on myself and prayed to God to teach me and help me, I repented for my sins. God introduced me to new people who I don't think I could live without. I recently joined Cadets and it has helped me in the long run with my social life and confidence. Of course, there's been a few bumps along the way and times when I've really broken down, but life has gotten a lot better.
My most depressing moment was when I found my 58 year old son deceased on the floor of his bedroom. He worked all day (36 years as a barber), came home, started to the shower and has a sudden heart attack. He had been died 4 days before I found him, the day before Mothers Day. I miss him every day and pray to meet him again soon. I’m 85 and should have left before him. He was a hard worker, responsible and the best son a mother could ever had. That day was my worse day. God be with you all.
So sorry to hear about your pain... but please know that every day and every hour of your live have a huge value, even though we dont understand God's plan why everything happens the way it does. I appreciatie you writting this comment, it touched me deeply ❤ I'm sending you lots of love..
A few years ago I lost my home my husband my job and a couple of weeks after that my eighteen year old son died in a car accident. I never felt that kind of pain in my life and it took me awhile but somehow I made it here to share this with you and anyone who might need to read it. You would be surprised how much strength you really have . I've found some much needed grief counseling and time really made a whole world of difference.
There are no words for what you've been through, but I hope you see that number of likes and see that at least that many people have thought of you with love.
Bless you! Well, I lost my religion a long time ago but if I had some kind of power I would reverse all this and take all your pain & confusion away! I wish I could hug you and just listen to your story. I don't get life and seen too much. Now all I can do is try to help and consul people. Hang in there please. I'm trying to also.....
If you have never personally dealt with depression, you have no idea how devastating it can be. I have been dealing with depression since 2001, I have been taking several types of anti-depressants over the past 22 yrs & I still have suicidal thoughts almost every single day. The sad part of our society is that most people don't recognize depression as a sickness, but see it as a weakness ☹️
Depression is a disease that can sometimes lead to death. 😮 If someone has never experienced chronic pain, grief, domestic violence, or depression, they really have no business commenting about it--bc they just sound silly, and it annoys the person that IS going through it. From the outside looking in --each of those problems seem fairly easy to deal with; but, as you know, when one is going through it themselves, there are many factors that an outsider fails to consider. 😮
I also have depression is doing pull my self out other information cry every DAY MY HUSBAND IS ALWAYS DRUNK HE HIT ME FOR THE FIRST TIME AFTER 42 YEARS I CALLED THE POLICE I'M SO SAD I DIDN'T HAVE HIM ARRESTED GOD BLESS SANDY
You are right. If I say losing my spouse of 20 years, almost ended my life by my own hands..I was selfish. Because of that I’m here. Not by choice just didn’t want my legacy being a p’ssy. Day by day I’m going
I've been fighting the worst depression ever the past 3 years watching my daughter suffer from mental health issues and addiction. The only thing that keeps me going is my daughter's daughter, who deserves and needs all the love she can get. I try to remind myself to just live one day at a time and pray because God is the only one who can intervene and make it all okay, somehow.
Prayers for everyone struggling. I have been struggling with PTSD, depression, anxiety and other dark thoughts since I was 15 years old. I am still hanging in here on earth at 59 years old only by God's grace. Thank you for sharing your song. There is always help out there if you just reach out for it. God bless
I'm 59 too! I've struggled with various problems too. Until I finally " let go" When I realized that most of my problems were of my own making. And also being victimized by abuse, but that just means to let go of the toxic people in your life. Hope all is we with you..
@@kimberlylynjamison8762 Hope you're doing ok! You made it this far right? I'll just say don't dwell on the past too much. Though it's hard to forget. Count your blessings, look forward to tomorrow. The blessing that life is. I look at it like. Of course I want to see tomorrow whatever test God has in mind for me, be it good or bad! The mystery of that, is what I live for. Not for other people at all. If you ever need to chat, I'm here! God bless!
My mother passed away when I was 12. It was such an emotional roller coaster for anyone especially as a preteen. When she was in the ICU fighting for her life in a coma due to diabetes complications, all of my aunts and uncles on my father’s side were present and I decided to kneel down on her bedside on the cold hospital floor and sing a song she always sang to me when I was young. It was Amazing Grace. When I got to the second verse of the song, she woke up out of the coma right then and there and sang the song with me as best as she could. Unfortunately a few days later she went to her home in Heaven but I was still left alone it felt like. I began to search for love in all the wrong places, took advantage of girls my age and developed an addiction to pornography (which I still fight to this day). I am now 31 and happily married with a beautiful 5 year old girl and I think of that story of singing to my mother and her waking up as a reminder that I can find peace in the midst of very difficult times because of God’s Amazing Grace. Love you all and please reach out to others if you are struggling, and reach out to those who are struggling.
You should be very proud of yourself mate, the fact you're still up and fighting and with a little one of your own shows you what type of man you are. Very well done
@@ljsart8405I’m sorry I made you cry 😢 I just wanted to hopefully encourage others that have experienced similar traumas. I chose, by the grace of God, to turn my past hurts into future positives.
I always described my depression as being in the abyss and being too tired to swim, easier to drown. Thankful everyday I got help and never have those thoughts anymore. Feeling thankful for every new day!
Thank you for this beautiful song. I found it by accident but it is absolutely my favorite now it hit home. And 16 months I lost nine people in my life. One of them was my son. The other one was my husband at 45 years. May God be with you always
My sun turned black when I lost my son October 2022 to fentanyl poisoning and depression. Turned even blacker when I found out my brother sold it to him. I am now active in the fentanyl war that makes my son brighter. Great song hugs and prayers to you
I'm 17 and been fighting depression for 6 years, and I tried committing suicide last year but my brother talked me out of it. And I really needed to hear this tonight thanks so much
From a stranger to another i love you brother keep ur head up high. Whats helped me thru my own tribulations was thinking of my loved ones and thinking how hard itd be for them. Last thing i wanna do is hurt them in such a way. You are loved and will be missed dont ever forget that. Again love you brother stay strong ur still young and have much to live
Get in line scrub... I've been fighting all my life and I'm 28. 😎 Seriously though, I can't help but feel like no one has ever actually cared about me and I feel like I wouldn't be missed at times.
I thought about suicide in my teenage years, i told noone but God spoke to me and carried me through the tough times and I have faith that I will be with him someday.
I have been fighting depression, most of my life. Many times, i wanted to, " End it All". I had a few attempts. But, im still here. Stay strong my friends. "You got This".
I'm 61 and lived with depression all of my life. The worst time for me was when I was 40. I had the end of my life all planned out. My daughter came over that night for a visit and spent the night talking to me, so my time passed. What has helped me get out of the darkness first, was music, and medicine, and there was a forum I hung out in called wing of madness. As I started to get a little past the deepest despair, I was glad I didn't kill myself. I was able to finally notice the blue sky, the flowers and their vivid colors. Just little things I would have missed. I really have to end this saying that music was my huge crutch. I'm still on meds 21 years later, and though I would prefer not to have to be on them, I found out the hard way that I can't do without them. For anyone that is in the pit of despair, it really does get better, find your crutch, your outlet, and stand strong.
@Lineproof yeah, I'll never be able to get off them, I tried and it was a horrible failure. Others can be on awhile and get off them, and others recover from depression without any meds. I wish I was that person! 😊
I feed people. I give them resources if they don't have them. Sometimes coats. Homeless people. I like cooking Big at Thanksgiving and going to different parks and feeding people. I gather toys and stuff thru the year for kids around me I know won't get much if anything. Food baskets for families and the elderly. Thats what we did. Now, I try to continue what we started. I will always try to give out love and a sandwich. Along with prayers for a better life and understanding of You Lord.
I am 16 and fighting mental illness, this song is so powerful and I feel like I needed to hear it. Thank you, my friend. I really appreciate all you do for people out there and I'm sorry to hear your story.
I know these words may not be of any help to you but I'd strongly advise you to talk about it. Learn to be at peace with yourself. You're still young and you've got a life ahead of you that only you can live. Take care and you'll be fine as long as you have faith in God and most importantly as far as depression goes faith in yourself. You can do this.
Kid is depressed for silly reasons 🤣 go outside kid.. and see their are many people who is suffering and ur problems are nothing infront of them including mine..
Found out someone I loved hurt someone else I loved. In a way that I had been hurt as a child. I had prayed for God to keep this particular kind of hurt away from my family. He didn’t. I felt so betrayed. I've always been someone who sees beauty everywhere. I find it because I seek it. After finding out about this... I couldn't see beauty anymore. Things, even people, that had brought me such joy before... just didn't. For months & months. Part of me just wanted to go home. Eternal home. Part of me was so mad at God I didn't know if I wanted anything to do with Him. So, every day, I just... got up. I breathed. I cried. I would occasionally reach out half-heartedly to God. Not sure if I even wanted Him to reach, too. There were times if I had felt He was reaching, I would have slapped His hand away. Or turned my back to Him. He was so, so very patient. It has been the longest period of waiting I've ever known. I still am waiting, to some extent. My relationship with God will never be what it once was, but I am convicted that if I just continue to get up every day, and breathe, we will grow closer than ever before. I had to forgive Him. I know... me forgive God! As if He would, could! Ever do anything that needed forgiving. It was still imperative that I did. Things have been getting better since then. Like I said. He has been so patient. So, I just trust. I get up. Every day. Breathe. And trust in God. Trust in His love. Trust in His plan. Trust in His infallible ability to bring good out of even the darkest circumstances. Thank you for your soul-deep song. God bless you!
My son is in the Military. I’m his go to person. Sometimes in the middle of the night he would cry. Like I’ve never heard before. All I could say is I love him with all of my heart. Sometimes we have to do something’s in life that we don’t want to. I’ve learned sometimes that is what someone wants. Not that they would ever comprehend. Just someone that is there.
I have to look for any signs of joy the Lord sends me. Sometimes it’s a butterfly, sometimes it’s feeding a squirrel, a storm, the laughter of a child ect. I fight depression daily but I find it is a lot harder to feel depressed when you’re constantly feeling grateful. God bless you 🙏❤️
I’ve been through a lot myself.. you saying the sun turning black really hit. I’m very thankful to be where I am today. Whoever you are, whatever you are going through.. please.. don’t give up on yourself. If ANYBODY read my comment, I’d appreciate you commenting or liking, maybe I needed to hear this message one day.. 🤍 Bless. Love. 🤍
Because watching another man sing a song about depression man and I cried about it all the video where everybody can see him that's true honesty right there that's really is a that's what people need to know how real people really are that way they can trust him and get past some of these things that we have in life instead of taking a pill or going to a hospital
What happened me when the sun turned black I searched for God, but even with his love it was a really dark moment of my life. I never tried to commit suicide and never will, but that moment of my life I felt like I lost hope. I cried out to God screaming for help. If it wasn’t the Gospel of Jesus Christ in my life I don’t know how I would be with my life right now. Thank you for sharing your story and song with us.
It's the statement I hear more than I'd like. " All I can do is pray...." When they say that I know already that they've never prayed and if they did it's 3 words and back into the depression. I can't imagine having any kind of life good bad whatever and constantly saying that same statement every time I'm feeling bad or even if I'm at rock bottom which believe me I've been to a bottom that I wouldn't want anyone to be at. Imagine standing next to the almighty and this is the moment where you're deciding or should I say he's deciding if you're going in or out and that is brought up imagine how you would feel knowing how you use the time and time again out of context as if he was like the last thing in the pantry to eat so you just force yourself to not be hungry sometimes if the world would say all I can do is pray and do it we wouldn't be where we are right now I just look forward to listening to the song and I like inspiring people it's just I saw this one commented it it just kind of threw me through a loop because I feel for the depressed person that is really rock bottom and literally doesn't know how to get out but then there's the other ones but I won't get started I just listen to this song God bless everyone
@@ValerieandDanielleIt’s not always easy. However, God has not abandoned you. He feels every ounce of pain. Every tear that has been shed. He always want you to come to Him no matter what. Doesn’t what what you’ve done, He wants YOU. Jesus loves you ❤
At 15 years old I lost both my parents and brother in a car accident that I somehow lived through. We were on our way to say our goodbyes to my grandma who died 12 hours after the wreck. That was in 1996 and I still struggle with my depression and probably always will
I am so sorry that you had to experience that kind pain at such a young age, not many people experience grief from losing multiple very close family members all at once. I lost my father when I was 15, he was not only a great Dad- but sometimes he was like my mom also. I can't imagine how hard that must of been for u, your a very strong person & remember that your times of pain & struggle is what makes u who u are...
My moment is right now. I’m listening to your song as I sit at my husband’s grave. It’s been 4 months now without him and I’m still having to remind myself to breathe in and out. 💔❤️🩹
I'm so sorry for your loss! It's almost to soon to offer comforting words. Idk where in the grieving process you are but let me feel you they bounce around, you can go from Angry to sad in 1/2 day! Be strong, think of good memories, and blessings always. " I pray the good Lord may asuiage the anguish of your bereavement"
My hands on your back. Youre not alone. Lost the only girl I loved to cancer at 31 without being able to tell her i loved her. I think of her weekly. Its unbearable sometimes.
My heart hurts for you. I don’t think I can say anything to make you feel better but just know in time your heart will handle the hurt differently - your husband may not be physically with you but I promise you he is & he can hear you and your thoughts 🤍
Been homeless for two years. My wife passed away. Fell off the waken for a while. Homeless but I do have a job. Keep fighting. Just go to work everyday I'm sober things are coming around. Thanks for the things you are saying. Keep it up
43 years old now. Found out I have borderline personality disorder 5 years ago. It felt so good to find out why I have felt the way I have my whole life. So many times I wanted to just die. Several attempts, fortunately failed. I have 2 daughters, and a wife to live for. Cognitive behavior therepy saved my life. Used meds to get stable, but didn't like the monotone life I was leading on them. FIND SOMEONE TO TALK TO. Thats the only thing that works for me. To anyone who struggles, you are loved! Even when you don't see it.❤
@@Kimberly-ps5sq Yeah I agree, I try keep my chin up and fight each day, I'm 38 and still fighting. It is a mental illness I don't think it does pass? its something we have to except and may have to live with forever.
@@Kimberly-ps5sq i don't think you can completely get rid of it because it is the way your mind tells you something is wrong much like how your body feels pain. I've gone through the big one s like heart break and insecurities I'm 1000 stronger after I figured it all out. Depression will always be apart of our lives but only pay it the attention it deserves "oh I feel bad I'm going to do something about" and no more👍
If someone notices this, I’m still alive and fighting depression
The world is a better place with you in it!
God bless you sir take one day at a time
If you ever need someone to speak too please reply to my comment and we can exchange FB or emails etc and I'm always here if you need to talk my friend
You're doing good ...
Not turning to drugs or alcohol is by far the very best thing you can do for urself and sadly way too many ppl lose themselves after losing someone they love because they turn to the wrong outlets to face whatever they're grieving... Everyday even if you don't notice it you're getting a little bit stronger and while you're heart will never be the same you WILL learn how to live with this new way of life if you make the choice too...
You got this 🎉
@Stranger_in_the_Alps. Your pain in palpable. My heart goes out to you. Depression is SO DIFFICULT. While you are walking in darkness please know there is light ahead. It may feel like there will never be a light. It took a long time for me to find that light but, I did FIND IT. You will find it. Please hold tight. Allow yourself the bad days. Search for the good days. You are in my prayers. Please know that you are not alone. There are so many out here who truly care about you. Please don’t ever forget that.
I lost my sister last year. The only thing that keeps me going is the fact that my niece is now my responsibility.
“When a man cries it isn’t because he’s weak. Its because he’s been strong for to long”
Fucking facts ❤
is there something wrong with me if i haven’t cried this hole video and i am boy and 12…?
True my friend.... But there's no hope for me
Thank you...
@@seaneschendal6349 you are just happy to be 12.... go on and you will see.... made a good job up to now👍👍👍👍
My sun turned black when my 2 month old son died from sids , I was angry at God, I slept 18 hrs a day and when I was awake I was throwing up,then one night Jesus brought my son to me, so I could say goodbye and gave me comfort and understanding 😊❤
Almost jumped off a cliff by the beach, I fell to my knees and started praying instead. 🙏 God is good
Man, god is good you need to pray everyday and mean it, it helps sooo much. I pray for your peace
Hey brother if no one said they love you, I do I'm dealing with homeless and my sons mother passed away yesterday as 2yrs ago so please fight
I suffer with mental illness and still am.My mom passed away 3years ago and my sons mother passed away 2years ago as of yesterday and when my mom passed i lost my son and just about ended it but I kept fighting and I got my son back home and we lost my apartment and moved with aunt cuz step dad passed last Easter so I was taking care of her and she passed two months ago and now me and my son are currently homeless and I thought about quitting but I promise my mom I would never leave my son. Your song touched me brother you have talent 😢
Thought about driving off the road for fun. I didnt and im glad you didnt jump. Lifes hard.
Life is real hard and almost not worth it
The saddest part of life is when the person who gave you the best memories become a memory...
I litterally lost her she was everything to me I still wake up and remember all the good memories and how happy I was back then
I lost my grandmother and a guy hung out with all the time my best friend I grew up with him
Then he tells you that the biggest mistake of his life was letting you go.
Facts!
@@johnnygann2095 no
this song seemed to come out of nowhere for my recommendations so I’m taking it as a sign that I needed to hear it. I feel this through my whole soul. This is a felt beauty.
Imagine taking the algorithm as kind of a destiny that choses what you „need“ to hear. I honestly think thats sad bro. No offense whatsoever
Same here it just got recommended to me rn
x2 Idk. no words guys...
I agree!! I had the same!!
Same here🤍🙏🏼
I’m fighting depression, and I’m still alive because I want to make my little brother proud, so that one day I will see him again…one day I will see him in heaven.
Stay the course. You are loved.❤❤❤
You’re worth the world! ❤
@@davidshirahjr-ug2gr thanks
The ONLY thing that saved my life was Jesus . Years of addiction, domestic violence, and depression and I finally got the courage to walk into a church I passed by every time I left my home. I felt so awkward and scared but the minute the door opened I was embraced and i met Jesus my savior he saved me and took away all my guilt I carried for so long. I am so grateful I have been renewed and had the opportunity to start over with a completely clean slate. My friends.. if u haven't yet I urge u to.. u will never be the same.
Let their love guide you❤️
When I feel depressed i turn on as many lights as I can. Open doors if nice out. I clean the house. Sometime with my old 70s music playing.
And I read Proverbs and Psalms. I thank God for all he has done for me. To know God is beside me is all I need. Ive been on that dark road. Drugs and Alcohol are not your friends.
Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤
Great Job ! Just don't even think about anything when you get in your head. Run outside look around and see the people moving around bc it tells you mind you're not alone. Then, for some reason and trust me I know the hardest part go somewhere random don't think about meeting up with anybody or anything just get yourself to a coffee shop somewhere it doesn't have to be the funnest place or your favorite just get around people see them talking monkey each other feel that connection cuz when you stay in that house in that room The only person you have to talk to is that person in your head that has nothing but bad intentions
Thank you for that comment for all of us to relate to. I’m thinking it’s time to leave the toxicity behind and connect with God to hopefully save my life from a long term self harm I’ve been purposely enduring. Be well, and may anyone suffering find peace and strength.
@LukeW91 You can do it. And the feeling of being sober minded will feel better than alcohol or drugs. I started at a very young age. But once sober a glass of water felt good to my body. It had only known alcohol for 40 years.
Been fighting for 6 years and still going. I’ve lost 5 people to suicide and I cannot tell you how hard this has been. I needed to hear this tonight. Thank you.
@your.local-loser (Sorry for the paragraph) I admire your perseverance and strength. We can’t forget those we have lost. I hope you find peace and healing and I am rooting for you!
God is with you no matter what
I promise you God wants to heal you. Even more than that, He wants to give a whole new life. He chases after you everyday. You’re His precious one, but He can’t do anything if you don’t let Him.
@your.local_loser please please change your name.... Change it to I am WORTHY. Blessings and hugs to you my friend.
Too buddy how are you feeling.. don't isolate your self Okey.. talk to your family members or friend. Stay strong king
I wrote a note, loaded the gun...got into bed, took a shot of scotch and was more than ready...when i realized it would be my mama bringing my 5yr old daughter home in the morning and THEY would be the ones to find me. I just couldn't imagine them having to deal with that. I got help, got clean (15yrs sober now) i still struggle with depression and im sure i always will, but i no longer feel hopeless. Now, Im actually a mental health/addiction counselor...Not all things can be taught by reading a book...its easier to talk to someone who's lived it. Prayers to all of you that are struggling
That’s because u are a wonderfully thoughtful person, Ty for NOT taking the shot, uR perfect today , must know this, namaste
@@janelleschmidt2250 thank you for such a nice comment. Namaste 🙏
Thats amazing! Congratulations!
Isha kriya is the one life changing thing I do now, a gf of mine committed suicide While I was at her house two years ago and all I could think was why did she take me with her… I think part of our problem is being and living an American life we get so out of sync of how truly wonderful life is Supposed to be and so many things we don’t see & never told or even acknowledged of the thousands of wonderful things that we do do, we are criticized & judged & thrown aside in this culture rather than being protected, nurtured, & cultivated, u r loved & I hope u feel it🤗🤗🤗
Congratulations 👏..
I want to meet, hug and spend time with everyone who listens to this song and feels bad right now. I wish this were possible and we could heal together :')💛
My Son suffered from bad depression for years. But I kept praying and showing love. Now at 40yrs. Old he’s happy and fixing to have his first baby. Thank you, Jesus for lifting my Son up and healing him. ❤
Amen
Your comment made me so happy. And I really hope you are enjoying that grand baby
@brandi.65 - news flash for you. If “ jesus” had anything to do with it, then your son wouldn’t have depression in the first place.
He is alive and well not because of “ jesus” and “ prayers” it was because he was able to somehow fight through it.
So good work on his part, not freaking jesus
@@m19y29 Jesus gave us all free will. Just because something bad happens doesnt mean it's his fault. Doesn't mean "Oh well if God was so loving then this, this and this wouldn't have happened." God isn't the reason he had depression, but he is the reason he doesn't. John 3:16 King James Version "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Get saved today ❤
@@xreallylazy - BS
Never had to struggle with depression, but man I can’t imagine how hard it must be to deal with it, respect to everyone going through it
Tbh I don’t even know if there’s a way to heal the depression each person experiences because each reason of depression are different to each other, for me I believe that the depression within me doesn’t leave but I learn how to control it because sometimes I gain strength to it and lessons of my life
it sometimes happens with chemical inbalances in the brain i think, so maybe a good diet can help it in some cases
P.s just say on the tex tom tell me👁️
I love to see a person who appreciates a sad song without having to act he's in sum oh-so-depressed-and-sad person just because they hear a sad song
Thank you so much god we need more people like you as someone who has been fighting depression and many other mental illnesses/disorders. It’s my birthday today I’m so surprised I’m still here after many many attempts but Im getting the “help” that I “need” I hope you have an amazing day/night
I recently lost my mother and father in a murder/ suicide and the depression is indescribable. I feel your pain. Writing my music helps me cope as well. But I'm quite confident that it will never completely go away.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I see you. I am sorry for that painful tragedy. No one should have to go through that. I think you are right. Sometimes the pain doesn’t go away. But when the pain won’t go away sometimes we can redirect that pain to accomplish something good and positive. I love you. I hope you’re doing well.
i’m so sorry. i wish i could hug you right now. wherever you are, im sending you love.❤️
I am sorry for your loss. Sending you healing and love
I was diagnosed at the age of 7 I've been living with it for 30 years the one thing I've learned is no matter what anyone says there is some one out there that loves you, and no offence to anyone I'm not talking about religion.
I can't hear anything.
Im a survivor! Every one of you are valued and worth it ❤
1:44 been there myself one evening I'd end up with a mouthful of tramadol and codine over 60 pills in half of them in my mouth and a bottle of squash.
Parked up behind the church where my grandmother is burried, a police officer pulled up alongside my car, sees me and all the pills spread out on the dashboard, Amazing grace blasting over the radio by brother called me worried about our mum and the fact she was suicidal after loosing her husband our dad.
At the time we'd lost our garage MOT business to a massive fire
Fighting a loosing battle with the insurance company .
My brother at the time unaware he had made me jump spitting out the pills from my mouth
But it's still feel like I've already died inside 😶
That's the best advice anyone can have. Survive first ❤️
I haven't listened as yet but my world turned black in 2002 when I lost my mom. I became so depressed for a period of time. But one day I heard the voice of the Lord Jesus saying and I quote "you are so busy being depressed that you can't see what's in front of you. That my friend was my second mother who God had placed in my life to continue this walk called Life amen. She has been and continues to be a mentor amen. May the Lord God Almighty continue to bless and keep you always 💯

" The most hard pain is when you feel to cry but you got no tears to drop anymore "
Yes!! That's the worst
Where I'm at
Itig
I haven't cried fr for ages. The last time I cry cried was when I was watching Rengokus death in demon slayer, and even then, I couldn't fully cry, or shed all the tears that I needed to both overr that and many other things.
That's how I feel right now.
My brother, well done. You've made me cry for the first time in five years, and the last time I did it was over my father's casket. I'm 16 and struggling with PTSD and depression, but this song's reached because I think I've found love, and that's given me hope. Thank you.
A few months ago, I was going down a conspiracy theory rabbit hole on TikTok. I’m usually a very optimistic person but, this nearly ended me. I was so anxiety ridden and so depressed, that I thought about ending it all. It was truly one of the most scary times in my life. I couldn’t even get up out of bed, without thinking that we were all being manipulated. I got out of it by returning to my childhood memories. Listening to music, watching Harry Potter. It got me out of the darkness and back into the light.
Wow I'm here with you in the same boat brother you got it I know it gets hard life is more difficult than it should be I understand stay strong✊🏼🩵
hey man, i’m 15 and i was cured of ptsd last year. there’s a light at the end of the tunnel ❤️
Stay strong Bro, we're still here so that must mean something. Doesn't matter if tommorow ain't better. As long as we're here, in present, living. And we'll live again, tomorrow, the next day, the next week, and many more. We'll live.
Im 16 too and 2 years ago I constantly wanted to die. But for some reason I decided to watch anime for the first time in years. It was violet evergarden that i watched, that day was the first time i had a good cry in years and i started to recover after that, i started sleeping better, I can actually socialize in school and eventually this willing to die disappeared. Now I'm trying my best to help others recover from their BIG SAD.
I'm 59. Been suffering with debilitating chronic pain for 6 yrs. Have severe depression, anxiety and PTSD. Every day is a struggle. I'm trying every day to hang in. I'm here.😢
I feel that
It's been black & hopeless for too long. I'm only here for my very young granddaughter, I'm her hero and I can't bare to hurt her
Somewhere, some far distance - someone is glad you’re trying. ❤ you are a hero ….for a continuing to be.
She's needs u as much as u need her. Trust in the signs he is giving u. Listen .

Seems to just get worse, even at 63

You know you've made a good song when you make yourself cry from how beautiful /sad it is
Yea.
Yeah, kinda cringe though. It's like laughing at your own jokes
@@silkroad1201 meh,
@@silkroad1201 sometimes laughing at your own jokes or crying at your own songs isn't necessarily cringe. That just means that you value what you created and you think it's genuinely good, and there is nothing wrong with that.
It feels like he’s acting to illustrate to you how “sad and emotional” this song is, because it isn’t particularly. Especially based on the title of the video. He’s selling something. I dunno put a bad taste in my mouth.
I’m a disabled veteran I did 6 years in the USMC. I broke my back and it took 10 surgeries to get me walking and moving around again. Lots of super dark painful days. I would think that ending it all would be so much better for everyone in my life. The pain and feeling of being such a burden. My wife of 26 years got me through the dark days and is still my rock. I still have bad days for sure but she got me through and I’m happy to say that I am still here and still fighting. I really love the song brother and I thank you for sharing it with everyone
It is great to hear that you were able to heal with the help of your loved ones. You are never a burden, especially not to all the people that love you ❤ Glad that you are feeling better! Take care🫶

@@satinbeesade1654 I wanted to say thank you for your reply to my comment. I really appreciate it and you are very kind. It’s the little things that add up to make such a great impact in my day. Thank you again
When I get depressed nowadays I pray and sing praise/worship songs. I used to listen to sad country songs which took me further down the dark rabbit hole. The praise songs give me hope and the willingness to try and crawl outta the sad.
Years ago I tried to take my life. I had just given birth to my 3rd daughter and my husband was off with yet another of his gfs. It was a black time. So in the midst of slicing my arm my baby started to cry, something she'd never done. That did it ! God spoke. Life hasn't always been kind after that point, but I made a promise that day that no matter what, I wouldn't waste the life I was given. So I try. There are people with more sorrow, look to the light and be thankful. I'm sure this won't help anyone but I felt the need to share. Thank you for a reminder and a heartfelt song. Bless you and hugs'n love 🤗🥰
It takes a lot of strength to carry all of that pain. I'm proud of you. Big hugs from Minnesota.
Still fighting the black, writing poetry and song helps, my partner chose to die, leave his 13 yr old and me who loved him dearly, clearly our love wasn't enough❤

God it hurts I don't want to continue it's not the song it's the pain
Okay brother I Ben there too many times to count but I came to realize it's only darker from the inside out but at the same time we learn from those darkest moments we over come an you will to and who ever else reads this just know there is a light 🕯️
God took me safely through after loosing my job after 24 1/2 years. That's when Jesus Christ carried me 💛💛💛🙌🙏
Carrier to where?
The sun turned black in Jan 10, 2010! My baby boy Connor died and birth, I asked my ex wife to watch my kids, she ended up taking them hiding and getting me for abandoning my 2 children. So I lost 3 children that year. I was walking in circles, with no where to go and no purpose. I was and am a strong Christian. I was so hurt I couldn’t even look up to God because I was so angry, Hurt! When I started talking to God and my sister? The sadness began to leave me. I was in this position for almost a year. I give God the glory for all the good, bad, and the ugly. Father if anyone here is reading this? I ask you touch them and take they’re depression and replace it with your joy, happiness and love amen
I had 2 best friends. One took his life at 23 on the day of the other's funeral. People tell me the pain will fade. 20 years later I'm still waiting.
God touch you NoOne!
Pain never fades when you love with all of your might. But you can turn all of your pain into a beautiful memory and do something in their name. Life is what you make of it. Love to live and live to love
The pain stays the same. You learn how to live with it over time. Somedays it hits you as hard as the day it happened. Other days a smile crosses your face over a thought from long ago
In a way you are lucky,you have two angels watching over you,makin sure you have a spot up there in the sky....it all makes sence one day.
Shit I feel the pain lost close fiends 3 days after my first friend died
I am currently 17 and this song took me back to the time when I wasn’t able to see any light at the end of the tunnel. I was 11 when I lost my mom to cancer. It was a very hard phase for me and it still is when during the nights i start reminiscing my memories with her. But somehow at that point I picked myself up and decided to make my mom proud. After a few years passed by, in 2022 I lost one of my best friends, which triggered everything that I was holding inside. It was a very very dark place for me because of all this and also because I was in my high school and I had a lot of pressure of studies. I was never good at them, so it was hard for me to cope up with things and live up to the expectations of my family. At the same time my father decided to get married again, and I was totally not okay with it, so that built a whole lot of stress in my mind too, because it was hard for me to look at someone else in my mom’s place. I used to have suicidal thoughts everyday, extreme anxiety, and I tried one or two times to end myself and give up but every time what kept me going was the belief that my mom was watching from up there and that I had promised her that I will make her proud. Till date I am fighting with all those thoughts but I can proudly say that I am much better and that I didn’t give up. So all I can say to the people who are going through all of this is that there are many people out there who look upto you and who actually care about you, even when it doesn’t seem like it trust me there are. And you should start believing that if our good days don’t last long, our hardships won’t either. One day all of this darkness will come to an end and you will look back and proudly say to yourself that you did it, you didn’t give up. So take one step at a time, believe in yourself and just know that many people are out there to help you, you just have to ask for it, even if it’s hard, just try once, trust me it makes everything a lot easier.
And for all the people who have been fighting all of it for a few years or months, i am proud of you. You are doing amazingly well, and you are very strong. Just don’t loose hope, the light will find it’s way to you. YOU ALL CAN DO IT!! ❤❤
Hey dear I can feel you ... I lost my mom before 8 years, and currently I’m 22 years old. In my channel you can find what I have written for my mom titled “purity “
God bless you! Have dealt with same. You are strong and amazing! ❤️🙏
Stay strong dude❤️👍
A really Nice example for people who thinks that,You did it well,i'm sure that you're Mom it's proud of You 100%,things like this makes me feel more motivated for keep trying,thanks You very much for share you're history
Hi I saw this and decided to reach out to see if you are still ok
I lost my mom this year only a month ago. She was my best friend. She was there for me for 2 years when I was battling 2 types of cancer. By the grace of God I beat it after fighting those 2 years. Sadly my mom wasn't as lucky because she couldn't beat hers. I sometimes feel like I let her down. She could help me but there was nothing I could do for her. I miss her more than anything. I just want my mom back.
I am so sorry for your loss. I know just how you feel becuz I lost my mom & best friend 4 yrs., 4 mos. ago and it still hurts so much! I miss her every single day. We never stop grieving. 😥💔😭
I'm so sorry you are going through this and im happy for you that you beat cancer. I lost my dad to cancer when I was 10. He was my rock, the only one i have ever fully trusted.. and I still struggle with his lose at 35. I wish you all the best. You will see your mother one day and I can assure you she is looking down and so very proud of you, you didnt let her down. Keep living life with love in your heart. ❤
Well, i've been suffering from OCD since my childhood. I have lost my 5 years because of my terrible OCD and i'm still fighting, now i don't cry anymore because it seems like no tears left inside me, sometimes it feels like i'm burning from inside as i've lost all my friends because of my terrible mental health conditions. l literally feel lonely, sometimes even feel like i'm stuck in this body but i'm figuring my ways to find the meaning of my life. The meaning of success for me is to at least add a little value to some people lives and i don't really fancy getting any materialistic fullfillments. I just want to live a decent life peacefully.

one thing worse than depression is not having a feeling of what being loved is like
This is really true, especially when you know what being loved is and is not
@@c.white-achampong6982 that hits really hard
I realised that last night.
I feel like I am sooooo alone and so scared that I have to carry on another day/week/month/year with this feeling. I feel homesick for a place that's was never home and heartbroken over a love I have never had and its hurting.
Damn right 😢
God loves you don’t for get I feel it to stay up 🆙 🙏
It takes a very very special person to be called 3 days in a row from a suicidal friend. A depresssd person who would be too shamed and embarrassed to call anybody but the suicide hotline , you must be an amazing amazing friend. God bless you. For a depressed person to not be ashamed to call you 3 days in a row they must know you can be trusted at every single cost and you are indeed a special human. I don’t know anyone like you. I wish I did. You don’t know how valued and special you are. I hope you read this.
Thank you for your kind words Breanna❤️
Jesus loves you and wants to save you. He died on the cross to free us from sin and hell. He loves you and wants to change your life.

That's terrible, the old story of Cain & Abel. So sorry for your loss & family tragedy. My mother was devastated when my younger brother Kevin died, even more devastated when her 5 yr old granddaughter was killed in a car accident. RIP Kevin & Rozlin "Rose" 🌹💔😥
Found my 21 yr old son dead of a gunshot wound Aug 31 will be a yr. I want to die everyday. Faith is getting me through.
Take as good care of yourself as you can. No words...
When my sun turns Black I listen to music, reach out to my husband and children anyone that will listen and I have learned to feel something and let it go, I would ruminate on things over and over. You got to feel it , be mindful of it and let go. Easier sad than done but it's a learning process, get out in the sunshine if it's cold make a comfy place to go. Rest. I have thought of harming myself because my brain doesn't stop. But I would never hurt my family or friends with me checking out. It does get better and then sad again and better. We ebb and flow through emotions all day . We always look to be future for happiness. Be present in today and do things that make u happy in that present moment. Hang in there humans. I am too❤
I'm 61 and have suffered with depression all my life. I had a wonderful childhood great parents and 4 beautiful sisters. Been married to my husband for 43 years . Started seeing each other at the age of 16 .we have to grown amazing daughters, one married to a wonderful man they have given me 4 grandchildren who are my heart. It's been a struggle for me not knowing what makes me feel so sad inside lonely even when I'm with my in a room of family and friends . I hide it well but sometimes the pain is so deep inside of me. It's like I'm screaming and no one can hear me. 😢😢😢😢😢
Hugs. I see you. Blessings.
Im here if you need to talk, I know this pain
God hears you and He cares.

Keep going 💪 give yourself more love 🙏🔥
Praying for you and hoping you can find something that helps to relieve your pain...if you like animals, please look into getting one of those special dogs who are rescued and trained to help with PTSD. You will save the dog and I think the dog can save you.
Love you bro, keep going. Thank you for all you’ve done for this country.
You're not alone brother. Semper Fi!
I am a man with little time left. God is where I find my refuge. My sun turned black a long time ago when at 17 my addiction started. First I lost my family, then my business, lost my home, and then lost the respect and love of family and friends.
Drifted around in my addiction for years 30 years to be exact. At the end I was physically, mentally, and spiritually broke. Went to AA I was directed there to God. Then about 3 years ago I went on a trip to Michigan from NC I listened to the Bible going and coming I got thirsty for more, so I have been reading the true word every since. I had a moment of suicidal tendencies and called mental health and checked myself in. I returned home and something started to grow on the inside. I kept reading and I got better. My relationship with God and faith is what is healing me.
Love God, believe and have faith, just the size of a mustard seed and your thinking will change.
Amen brother. Love seeing others share how they came to find Christ and the love and forgiveness found in Him!
There is nothing curable for depression more than the relationship with god!
You are very strong sir
Keep it up, man!
That’s amazing! So glad to hear that you are doing better and I hope you know how valuable you are, and care about (and treat) yourself as you should now: with love
- from someone who somehow overcame self-hatred by the power of the living spirit of Jesus Christ in me (and thru his unconditional love and forgiveness/grace 💕)
My sun turned black March 30 2024 when my best friend died. I’ve fought depression my whole life. I find the light by remembering the good times. Never give up…✌🏼❤️
When I lost my granddaughter. So I try to think about when I get to see her in Heaven one day so it helps me to get through the really dark days.
I lost my dad to suicide 3 weeks ago. It was his 2nd attempt, his 1st attempt was last year. He OD’d and survived, but was never really the same and it broke my heart. 3 weeks ago I found him hanging from a tree in our backyard, his youngest son (I’m 20)… He tried so hard for so many years, therapies, medications, you name it, we tried so hard as a family unit to support him but ultimately he couldn’t fight the battle anymore. I sacrificed most of my adolescence to be at home because I wanted to be with my family. My dad was my best friend, as a result of trying to help him with his mental illness we developed a very unique and open father son relationship. He just felt like he was a burden to us and holding me back, but I was more than happy to sacrifice anything to rather stay in with him and do something at home with him, if anything at all. I preferred that. Not gonna get too sappy with this, but I just really fucking miss my dad and just want one more bear hug, even though I’m 20 lol. I just want to look up at him again and call him Daddy one more time.
Love you dad, I don’t think the grief will ever get better with time, it just changes form slightly, but it’s still ever so painful as the day I found you. I miss you so much, I can only hope and pray that you’re at peace now. 🖤🖤🖤
So sorry to hear your pain Jonathan, I understand from personal experience of being at the place of desperation to commit suicide, I think I know partly where your dad's thoughts and feelings were at as he was going through the battle of should I or should I not leave this world. Please You must not put any blame on yourself for this ..... its not any of your fault why this happened. I have learned from my recovery of suicidal tendency that I was not able to focus on what my family members would go through experiencing my taking my own life, especially the person who would find me. The mental illness and depression takes away your ability to be rational, logical or think straight, it just sucks you into a place of lostness and all hope has gone. Sorry if I seem to be going on and on but I am trying to say to you, do not be hard on yourself and blame any of this on yourself as your grief process unfolds in your life. God bless you and I pray that you will be comforted by the people around you who love you very much 🙏
I’m sorry 😢
Im thinking of you,i pray for you,im also a Dad,a grandfather a husband and was also almost there,may God bless you,keep you strong and just remember all the good what he have done,keep your head up and Never give up,love you my son although i dont know you,God blessings for you and the family
Lazarus, George, thank you for sharing your experience and reaffirming that God is the only way we can get through insurmountable challenges that we as fleshly Men can’t beat alone, but only through the spirit of God and his Son. I know that it wasn’t my fault, nor my families. But to see the person you love so much suffering is an indescribable pain. Even through his darkest moments, he still had Faith. And that is the only thing that really matters. I can understand why he did what he did, I’ve been diagnosed with major depression at 18. Although I’ve never had suicidal tendencies, I do understand to an extent the suffering that’s involved.
Depression is rough on my Dad’s side of the family, he lost 2 family members to suicide as well. This silent killer is devastating in my family, but I will remain Faithful and thankful for what I have, and I WILL break the cycle even if it’s the last thing I do.
Thank you for reminding me I’m not alone and other people have been through stuff like this, it’s easy to get sucked into a black hole and feel completely alone. God bless both of you. George, ek sien Oom is ook Afrikaans. Ek ook, wat is die kanse dat ek in een van my mense vas loop op die internet? Dankie vir Oom se woorde. 🙏🏼
That really blows ,the medical establishment is more concerned with making cash, it's those not so connected that can really make a change
I lost both of my parents to Covid last year, two weeks apart. It was so hard for the first 6 months. I was 15, man. (Now 16) No kid should ever lose their parents that young. But I’ve managed after a deep depression that somehow didn’t take my life. (Ruined my grades though haha) The sun turned black for 6 months, but it shined again and I’m okay now. Well, maybe not fully, but I’m getting there.
I love you mom and dad, and I’ll see you again my loved ones.
Bless you
You sound incredibly strong. 15 is so young to endure such hardship, but hopefully, by the sounds of it, you will share your struggles and be relatable to people that need support the most. Making your existence so valuable. Best of luck 🙏
Lost my mom to Covid and almost my dad at the same time but he pulled through. I feel your pain with my mom though. I still dream about her weekly.
@@Robinhood179 - I am so sorry you've experienced this pain, too. It sucks and makes you angry at the world. I dream about my dad mainly almost nightly, but my mom does appear every other dream with them in it. I was closer with my dad.
@@c.carrillo7813 - Thank you so so much, you have no idea how much that means to me. Just,, thank you, that's all I can really say.
The day my husband passed away. He was 31 and I was 34. He left 3 children behind. They were 13, 10, and 3. I only made it because of my children and God. That first year is still a blur. With my faith which at that time I guess I was a little lost. Thank God for helping us get past it all. Sometimes I hate him for not helping himself to live for us. You see, he past away from alcohol poisoning. That should explain everything.
Thank-You! For this song. I’ve been suffering with depression since I was 10 years old. I’m now 54. I have severe scoliosis. Had Harrington rod surgery when I was 10, in 1980. I have not grown in my spine since the surgery. Just about Every muscle in my body is a mess and di am in pain 24/7. I’m also type 1 diabetic, I have had insomnia for the last 8 years, plus a few more health issues. It’s just never ending with me. I have no friends, and no one wants to love this.
My sun was black from 2017 to 2020. I'm an alcoholic and I've been sober since December 3, 2020. It was a horrible life I was living. Depression is all consuming. Thank you for giving us an outlet. You are definitely a blessing. Thank you!
Stay strong on your journey. ❤
Congratulations on the stop drinking It's ur first bid step
Congrats on your sobriety !! Hang in there ONE MINUTE at a TIME, someone will always be there… reach out anytime you need
Stay strong and that is not easy reach out if needing help..
Alcoholism is so very painful for the addict and more so to the loved one.
Semi colon tattoos are mental health awareness. Suicide. Depression. Anxiety
The SUN turned BLACK when my youngest SON died. God sent MERCY , GRACE & LOVE to soothe my soul. GOD'S LOVE ENDURES FOREVER.
Virtual hugs to you. Your child is with God safe and fine. Stay strong just like you are rn. 💗
I am VERY sorry that HAPPENED to you THAT sounds very TRAUMATIC I hope EVERYTHINGS ok
God bless your son and may he stay within the lords presence ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
Hi Cannon thanks for the beautiful song. Yes I suffer from depression and anxiety and I am seeing a psychologist. I have given my life to our Lord in 2008 and I am still on track. I lost my fiancee 6 weeks before our wedding and that triggered a ripple effect for me. He just had a massive heart attack while I was in church and he was at my house that morning he came and took me to church and then he usually stays there and we spend the day together when I get home but he was a corpse in my house. I was devestated and a few weeks later I was in hospital the anxiety that happened in 2022 October 22nd. Still miss him and and struggling to get used to him not bring around. I am.on medication which helps but there are days that I just cry continuously and I stay on my knees and pray to our Father who is the only one who can help us. I pray that you and your friend will go for counseling or see a therapist. Everything of the best for you all. God is great we must just believe. On Monday I had one of those never ending crying days. I pray that we will all get through this eventually. Thanks again for the beautiful song. God Bless.❤❤
Men don't cry, let the voice take over 😊
The saddest part of my life. I lost my mom at 14 and my dad at 15. Glad the sun came back out for me. I would imagine saying goodbye to a child so much harder. My heart goes out to those parents.
You sound like a very humble, kind and wise person. I get the impression your parents were pretty great.
You are a beautiful soul! ❤🕯️🙏🏼
I lost my son to cancer December 27th 2020. My sun still isn’t out, he was 33
I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder in 1995. In 1997, my uncle promised we would beat depression together as he believed depression was part of the devil. 4 days later he was found in his apartment from suicide. To this day, I still remember his last words to me and hold on to my end of our promise. 25 years and still hard some days.
dont ever give up do it for him man
Don't give up I believe in you! Stay strong, stable and HAPPY!
I’m sooooo sorry about your uncle. Suicide is so devastating.
Don't give up. I lost my mother to this as a young boy. Whoever you've lost. Would never wish for you to dwell on and live your live based on their death or suffering. Help who you can and do your best.👏
🙏🏼😍
I lost everything at
15 no home no family no love no friends no money no hope no future...... 23 years later not alots changed but i will not quit i will never give up i know greatness is made through difficulties. Stay strong keep moving forward!!!
There is one who loves you more than you know… Jesus. He has a great plan for your life. Let Him know your needs.
3:11 am my daughter was going through the worst time of her and I, as a mother, was in the tunnel with her! She was being attacked from all around! The sun turned black several times and all I knew was to try and encourage her or just listen to her! The pain that your child is suffering and there is nothing you can do but get on your knees and pray to God with all your soul and might to the Almighty God! The miracle that me God did for her and He didn’t let the enemy hurt a hair on her body!
He broke the chains and shackles that were destroying her! She healed and now, I have my daughter back, stronger than ever and her faith has also been restored! Ty Jesus! ❤
We lost our 32 yr old grandson last week the Lord’s peace is all that’s getting us through.
A peace that surpasses all understanding. God bless you and your family. 🙏
So very sorry for your loss
I’ve found my dark place . Looking for the sun again😮
God bless you and keep you. May the lord bring you peace. I’m deeply sorry for your loss. I’ve always believed my super power was being the biggest empath I’ve ever known I cry when others cry and can feel anyone’s pain. Keep going. You will see him again. This life isn’t the end it’s just a step.
I’m sorry for your loss, god bless my friend and have a safe life
It takes a pure loving heart to help someone from darkness while you're suffering yourself.. you'll be blessed.. God is using you
Hi Alicia where are you from.?
🙏 Amen
My darkest day was losing my only sibling my beautiful big hearted brother & a week later my youngest son was born early & needed to go to the Nicu. I was so broken from losing my brother & then my sweet baby boy sick. I went into a very dark & lonely depression. My son is 22 & going to be married this May 2024 but I will always feel part of my heart is gone 😢😢❤❤
I live in Ohio and yes I have felt this way before!! I have since found myself and turned to God!! I no longer need alcohol or anything else in my life!! I live for myself and my children and grandchild!! Family and friends are great to turn to!! ❤❤❤✝️✝️✝️✝️
The sun turned black for me and my wife when we lost our 6 year old daughter to cancer and it is still very much so. Great song man.
😔 Sending you both love and prayers.
Heartfelt Condolences to you, your wife, & family. 🌷
God Bless you and your family
So very sorry. I definitely feel your pain. I too struggle everyday from the loss of my only child. She was 9 years old and she died in an auto accident. 1 year before her death, I lost my mother. Then again, 2 years after my daughter died, I lost my dad. It’s definitely not an easy journey, but GOD!!!
Damn Antonio, i too am a father. Its impossible for me to understand what u are feeling. But i know what its like to love like that. U have my empathy. I wish i could hug you bro.
I haven't heard it yet, but I know I'll cry. I lost my son at 34 overdosed. So I'm getting my tears ready. He was in Puerto Rico and I was in Colorado. My heart has never been so broken. In memory of my son, Joshua 06/03/2019 😥💔
Awww, so sorry about your loss Shirley, my deep and sincere condolences, how have you been? 🌺 😢
Dear Lady, Condolences 💐 always 😢🙏
So so sorry. Deepest condolences. I cannot fathom. May you find some peace. ❤
I'm sorry brother
My husband passed away March 28th 2020, and I'll never be the same. That next June would have been our 30th anniversary. Although the loss of my husband was awful, losing a child has to be worse. I have two sons, and I don't know how I would ever cope if I lost either one. My oldest son married a woman who somehow pushed me completely out of their lives, three grandsons and all. It's been almost 20 years since we spoke but he's alive. I can watch him online because he's a professor. So I have an idea where he lives. I cried a river of tears at that loss, so Shirley, you must have cried an ocean of tears and probably still do. I'm so sorry for your loss. I believe your son is in a better place, and you'll see him again someday. His Spirit is watching over you. I believe that with all of my heart because my husband gives me signs he's still with me. I feel touches, and I live alone. Just gentle poking so I know he's with me all the time. May God bless you with peace, love and strength.
GRATITUDE . I’m not gonna sit here and act like an expert or anything, but I’ve tried a lot of different Practices and thought experiments, but the one thing that by far helped me the most was to start a practice of gratitude every morning. It switches something in your mind makes you go from thinking Inward negatively, to thinking positively outside of yourself. no one thing will fix your life but Practicing real gratitude will absolutely change your life for the better.
A great thanks for this lovely song ❤
Here's some things you can do -
1. Go outside for nature viewing
2. Try drawing, yoga , dance , exercise etc.
3. Talk to your loved ones
4. Write a diary
5. Keep hope , talk to yourself for being positive
6. Read positive books listen to positive songs
7. Try to see yourself in another way the positive side of you and dream for big. ❤
this, as some random 14 year old kid, made me realize how little i know and how much i have yet to feel and learn at a time where i really needed it. Thanks dude, beautiful song and I hope everything's okay for you in life.
as a 14 yr old person, i never saw another 14 yr old being so mature
@@zzz0fia As a 16 year old person, I consider this 14 year old to be more matured than me
im 14 too. i feel like its the age where we really start to grow up and be accepted as a teenager. like yeah we are legally teenagers at 13 but 14 is just when we start to mature. i hope no one has to relate to this song but i know some people will and thats okay (sorry if this comment makes no sense)
As some random 14 year old, i hate my life. It's painful and I don't want to deal with school anymore. Last year was the best year of my entire life so far and this year is already looking down. Keep your life on a good track, cause when you're in a deep state you can never recover.
@@cockstealer bro i promise you no matter what has happened things will be better of all the things i could promise thats the one i'd emphasize the most. with time and life's trials people learn everything they know about life and i promise you one day if you never give up you'll learn and see for yourself based from those lessons things do get better you just gotta keep going and keep fighting for a view from the top
My brother committed suicide 4 months ago, we both come from an abusive family, i could talk about it, heal. He couldn't. I've been on my knees but feel his presence somehow. The feeling of hope is coming, life is so fragile, both fantastic and cruel. Thank you for this song ❤️.
I’m so sorry
@@missclassy2878 Thank you 🙏
I’m so sorry, may he rest in peace 😔
@@reid6usaf_651 Thank you 🙏
My prayers are with you 🕊️
My sister put a .32 in her mouth when she was 21 and my Mom tried to take her life so many times,about the 3rd attempt we were in ICU and she was conscious but incubated, and I went off yelling at her why? Why? do you want to leave me so badly? Don’t you love me? If I have to be on this earth and suffer you have to suffer with me ! I think you’re being selfish ,only thinking about yourself and your feelings, what about the feelings of the people that love you? The people that will be hurt alone and heartbroken because of your actions. Then I asked her if it hurt (she sliced her wrists took pills and was in a ice cold bathtub for 2 days) technically she was DOA but the hospital tried a new tx to rewarm a hypothermic body, they said possibility of brain damage from bodies methane gases, remarkably she had no brain damage . She nodded her head yes that the suicide attempt hurt. I said Good! Are you going to try to do it again? She shook her head no. lol
She never tried to kill her self again and she died a few years later from a massive brain hemorrhagic stroke.
Cemeteries aren’t for the dead, they’re for the living .
I pray for your healing and recovery 🙏🙏🙏✝️
I'm elderly. I've battled depression, mental illness, addiction, homelessness, sa, dm, and in and on. Hang on. Just breath. Count every breath as an opportunity to get better, then count every breath asan opportunity to help someone else. Cling to Jesus. I have pulled on the pillowcase as my connection to clinging to God. Cling to God. Pray. Don't give in to the devil. He ain't worth it. 💪🙏❤️
You can tell the man was holding back tears, Im currently fighting it and I just have no emotions anymore, but this makes me wanna cry but I can’t.
I lost my husband 12 years ago in a motorcycle accident. It was so difficult for my daughter and I. I turned to God and took one day at a time. Still now I have strong faith. I never gave up. The memories keep me living on🙏🏼🙏🏼
I'm very sorry about your husband, trust me I completely understand how you feel, I felt the same way when my wife past away June 4th 2018 grief is hard to deal with but we learn to live with it, where are you from ?
I lost my wife in a motorcycle accident September 20, 2014.
Last year I was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer and my other half left because of the illness. I was hurt and angry that someone I loved could just walk away when I needed them most. I'm much better now and stronger and I'm beating the cancer. Thanks for this song
Relatable senbding condolences. Dealing with relapsed lymphoma with secondary testicular. After telling the woman i wanted to only fight for to love she decided To ghost. Meeting her truly was the only time i felt the courage strength and happiness for a possible future, today i sit empty , again. Idk what to even do anymore. I pray for your recovery
@@thisdeaddog and @Ty Taylor I have no words. That's horrible what you've both been through. I'm so sorry. This World can be so dark and nasty. I'm so happy you are beating it the cancer Ty and I am 🙏🏻 praying for recovery for both of you!!!!! Keep on fighting. Best wishes!!!
Keep fighting! ❤
Bless you Brother!
You're not alone brother. Let music and love be the bridge for your spirit to fly.
The Sun has turned black for me a lot of times. I'm 16 and I'm autistic. I have been bullied nearly all my life and had nasty rumours. I wasn't just bullied at school, but I was bullied and made fun of outside. When I was 13/14, I was severely depressed and suicidal. Towards the end of Year 9 (8th grade), my life was getting better. I found Jesus, and my life has gotten better ever since. I started working on myself and prayed to God to teach me and help me, I repented for my sins. God introduced me to new people who I don't think I could live without. I recently joined Cadets and it has helped me in the long run with my social life and confidence. Of course, there's been a few bumps along the way and times when I've really broken down, but life has gotten a lot better.
My most depressing moment was when I found my 58 year old son deceased on the floor of his bedroom. He worked all day (36 years as a barber), came home, started to the shower and has a sudden heart attack. He had been died 4 days before I found him, the day before Mothers Day. I miss him every day and pray to meet him again soon. I’m 85 and should have left before him. He was a hard worker, responsible and the best son a mother could ever had. That day was my worse day. God be with you all.
I’m so so sorry.💔
So sorry to hear about your pain... but please know that every day and every hour of your live have a huge value, even though we dont understand God's plan why everything happens the way it does. I appreciatie you writting this comment, it touched me deeply ❤ I'm sending you lots of love..
A few years ago I lost my home my husband my job and a couple of weeks after that my eighteen year old son died in a car accident. I never felt that kind of pain in my life and it took me awhile but somehow I made it here to share this with you and anyone who might need to read it. You would be surprised how much strength you really have . I've found some much needed grief counseling and time really made a whole world of difference.
I’m realy sorry to hear that that sounds horrible
I’m soo happy you made it and you are really strong thanks for sharing your story ❤
I hope you are well. Take care
There are no words for what you've been through, but I hope you see that number of likes and see that at least that many people have thought of you with love.
Bless you! Well, I lost my religion a long time ago but if I had some kind of power I would reverse all this and take all your pain & confusion away! I wish I could hug you and just listen to your story. I don't get life and seen too much. Now all I can do is try to help and consul people. Hang in there please. I'm trying to also.....
If you have never personally dealt with depression, you have no idea how devastating it can be. I have been dealing with depression since 2001, I have been taking several types of anti-depressants over the past 22 yrs & I still have suicidal thoughts almost every single day. The sad part of our society is that most people don't recognize depression as a sickness, but see it as a weakness ☹️
Hang in there it will be okay❤
Depression is a disease that can sometimes lead to death. 😮
If someone has never experienced chronic pain, grief, domestic violence, or depression, they really have no business commenting about it--bc they just sound silly, and it annoys the person that IS going through it.
From the outside looking in --each of those problems seem fairly easy to deal with; but, as you know, when one is going through it themselves, there are many factors that an outsider fails to consider. 😮
Thank you for saying that. I needed to hear it today. And you said it perfectly. 💜
I also have depression is doing pull my self out other information cry every DAY MY HUSBAND IS ALWAYS DRUNK HE HIT ME
FOR THE FIRST TIME AFTER 42 YEARS
I CALLED THE POLICE I'M SO SAD I DIDN'T HAVE HIM ARRESTED
GOD BLESS

You are right. If I say losing my spouse of 20 years, almost ended my life by my own hands..I was selfish. Because of that I’m here. Not by choice just didn’t want my legacy being a p’ssy. Day by day I’m going
I've been fighting the worst depression ever the past 3 years watching my daughter suffer from mental health issues and addiction. The only thing that keeps me going is my daughter's daughter, who deserves and needs all the love she can get. I try to remind myself to just live one day at a time and pray because God is the only one who can intervene and make it all okay, somehow.
Prayers for everyone struggling. I have been struggling with PTSD, depression, anxiety and other dark thoughts since I was 15 years old. I am still hanging in here on earth at 59 years old only by God's grace.
Thank you for sharing your song. There is always help out there if you just reach out for it. God bless
Every day new day how you doing now
I'm 59 too! I've struggled with various problems too. Until I finally " let go" When I realized that most of my problems were of my own making. And also being victimized by abuse, but that just means to let go of the toxic people in your life. Hope all is we with you..
My sun was black from 12 to 59. I'm 62 now. My mother stayed on her knees for many yrs.
59 here also. Mine started around 12.
@@kimberlylynjamison8762 Hope you're doing ok! You made it this far right? I'll just say don't dwell on the past too much. Though it's hard to forget. Count your blessings, look forward to tomorrow. The blessing that life is. I look at it like. Of course I want to see tomorrow whatever test God has in mind for me, be it good or bad! The mystery of that, is what I live for. Not for other people at all. If you ever need to chat, I'm here! God bless!
My mother passed away when I was 12. It was such an emotional roller coaster for anyone especially as a preteen. When she was in the ICU fighting for her life in a coma due to diabetes complications, all of my aunts and uncles on my father’s side were present and I decided to kneel down on her bedside on the cold hospital floor and sing a song she always sang to me when I was young. It was Amazing Grace. When I got to the second verse of the song, she woke up out of the coma right then and there and sang the song with me as best as she could.
Unfortunately a few days later she went to her home in Heaven but I was still left alone it felt like. I began to search for love in all the wrong places, took advantage of girls my age and developed an addiction to pornography (which I still fight to this day).
I am now 31 and happily married with a beautiful 5 year old girl and I think of that story of singing to my mother and her waking up as a reminder that I can find peace in the midst of very difficult times because of God’s Amazing Grace.
Love you all and please reach out to others if you are struggling, and reach out to those who are struggling.
❤ this
You should be very proud of yourself mate, the fact you're still up and fighting and with a little one of your own shows you what type of man you are. Very well done
this made me cry. i’m so sorry, i can’t even imagine the pain you felt
@@ljsart8405I’m sorry I made you cry 😢 I just wanted to hopefully encourage others that have experienced similar traumas. I chose, by the grace of God, to turn my past hurts into future positives.
@@dennislawless3563appreciate the kind words brother
I always described my depression as being in the abyss and being too tired to swim, easier to drown. Thankful everyday I got help and never have those thoughts anymore. Feeling thankful for every new day!
Thank you for this beautiful song. I found it by accident but it is absolutely my favorite now it hit home. And 16 months I lost nine people in my life. One of them was my son. The other one was my husband at 45 years. May God be with you always
My sun turned black when I lost my son October 2022 to fentanyl poisoning and depression. Turned even blacker when I found out my brother sold it to him. I am now active in the fentanyl war that makes my son brighter. Great song hugs and prayers to you
I am so sorry for your loss.
Stay strong Sheri, God will guide and bless you. Prayers to you.
As a father, even the thought of what your going through hurts. with the utmost compation to your situation I am so sorry for your loss
I'm sorry for your loss I lost my husband in July.

I'm 17 and been fighting depression for 6 years, and I tried committing suicide last year but my brother talked me out of it. And I really needed to hear this tonight thanks so much
From a stranger to another i love you brother keep ur head up high. Whats helped me thru my own tribulations was thinking of my loved ones and thinking how hard itd be for them. Last thing i wanna do is hurt them in such a way. You are loved and will be missed dont ever forget that. Again love you brother stay strong ur still young and have much to live
I'm 17 too. I am having a hard time. No one is supportive. It's hurting. I guess we should strive strive and strive .
Love you brother.
@inabil7547 you can do it man. I believe in you🖤🖤
Your loved bro, never forget that
Get in line scrub... I've been fighting all my life and I'm 28. 😎 Seriously though, I can't help but feel like no one has ever actually cared about me and I feel like I wouldn't be missed at times.
I thought about suicide in my teenage years, i told noone but God spoke to me and carried me through the tough times and I have faith that I will be with him someday.
I have been fighting depression, most of my life. Many times, i wanted to, " End it All". I had a few attempts. But, im still here. Stay strong my friends. "You got This".
Same. Glad you’re still here 😊
I'm 61 and lived with depression all of my life. The worst time for me was when I was 40. I had the end of my life all planned out. My daughter came over that night for a visit and spent the night talking to me, so my time passed. What has helped me get out of the darkness first, was music, and medicine, and there was a forum I hung out in called wing of madness. As I started to get a little past the deepest despair, I was glad I didn't kill myself. I was able to finally notice the blue sky, the flowers and their vivid colors. Just little things I would have missed. I really have to end this saying that music was my huge crutch. I'm still on meds 21 years later, and though I would prefer not to have to be on them, I found out the hard way that I can't do without them. For anyone that is in the pit of despair, it really does get better, find your crutch, your outlet, and stand strong.

if anti-depressants, just know you’ll never get off them if you keep using them. They’re ineffective as a treatment
@Lineproof yeah, I'll never be able to get off them, I tried and it was a horrible failure. Others can be on awhile and get off them, and others recover from depression without any meds. I wish I was that person! 😊
I feed people. I give them resources if they don't have them. Sometimes coats. Homeless people. I like cooking Big at Thanksgiving and going to different parks and feeding people. I gather toys and stuff thru the year for kids around me I know won't get much if anything. Food baskets for families and the elderly. Thats what we did. Now, I try to continue what we started. I will always try to give out love and a sandwich. Along with prayers for a better life and understanding of You Lord.
Amen.
I am 16 and fighting mental illness, this song is so powerful and I feel like I needed to hear it. Thank you, my friend. I really appreciate all you do for people out there and I'm sorry to hear your story.
I know these words may not be of any help to you but I'd strongly advise you to talk about it. Learn to be at peace with yourself. You're still young and you've got a life ahead of you that only you can live. Take care and you'll be fine as long as you have faith in God and most importantly as far as depression goes faith in yourself. You can do this.
Hey im 16 and battling stuff too. We’re in this together bro.
Breathe air
Kid is depressed for silly reasons 🤣 go outside kid.. and see their are many people who is suffering and ur problems are nothing infront of them including mine..
@@crazybanguru1096u sound very lonely and insecure. Hope god does good with u
Found out someone I loved hurt someone else I loved. In a way that I had been hurt as a child. I had prayed for God to keep this particular kind of hurt away from my family. He didn’t.
I felt so betrayed. I've always been someone who sees beauty everywhere. I find it because I seek it. After finding out about this... I couldn't see beauty anymore. Things, even people, that had brought me such joy before... just didn't. For months & months.
Part of me just wanted to go home. Eternal home. Part of me was so mad at God I didn't know if I wanted anything to do with Him.
So, every day, I just... got up. I breathed. I cried. I would occasionally reach out half-heartedly to God. Not sure if I even wanted Him to reach, too. There were times if I had felt He was reaching, I would have slapped His hand away. Or turned my back to Him.
He was so, so very patient.
It has been the longest period of waiting I've ever known. I still am waiting, to some extent. My relationship with God will never be what it once was, but I am convicted that if I just continue to get up every day, and breathe, we will grow closer than ever before. I had to forgive Him. I know... me forgive God! As if He would, could! Ever do anything that needed forgiving. It was still imperative that I did. Things have been getting better since then. Like I said. He has been so patient.
So, I just trust. I get up. Every day. Breathe. And trust in God. Trust in His love. Trust in His plan. Trust in His infallible ability to bring good out of even the darkest circumstances.
Thank you for your soul-deep song. God bless you!
My son is in the Military. I’m his go to person. Sometimes in the middle of the night he would cry. Like I’ve never heard before. All I could say is I love him with all of my heart. Sometimes we have to do something’s in life that we don’t want to. I’ve learned sometimes that is what someone wants. Not that they would ever comprehend. Just someone that is there.
I have to look for any signs of joy the Lord sends me. Sometimes it’s a butterfly, sometimes it’s feeding a squirrel, a storm, the laughter of a child ect. I fight depression daily but I find it is a lot harder to feel depressed when you’re constantly feeling grateful. God bless you 🙏❤️
This happens to me too every day for 30 years.
I’ve been through a lot myself.. you saying the sun turning black really hit.
I’m very thankful to be where I am today.
Whoever you are, whatever you are going through.. please.. don’t give up on yourself.
If ANYBODY read my comment, I’d appreciate you commenting or liking, maybe I needed to hear this message one day.. 🤍
Bless. Love. 🤍
That's true there should be no age limit the best way to get past depression is to talk about it with someone you really trust
Because watching another man sing a song about depression man and I cried about it all the video where everybody can see him that's true honesty right there that's really is a that's what people need to know how real people really are that way they can trust him and get past some of these things that we have in life instead of taking a pill or going to a hospital
you're worth it, you can do it, never give up ❤ May God bless your beautiful soul
♥️♥️♥️♥️
What happened me when the sun turned black I searched for God, but even with his love it was a really dark moment of my life. I never tried to commit suicide and never will, but that moment of my life I felt like I lost hope. I cried out to God screaming for help. If it wasn’t the Gospel of Jesus Christ in my life I don’t know how I would be with my life right now. Thank you for sharing your story and song with us.
People need to turn to God and stop trying navigate this life alone. God is our Father
If only it was that easy….
It's the statement I hear more than I'd like. " All I can do is pray...." When they say that I know already that they've never prayed and if they did it's 3 words and back into the depression. I can't imagine having any kind of life good bad whatever and constantly saying that same statement every time I'm feeling bad or even if I'm at rock bottom which believe me I've been to a bottom that I wouldn't want anyone to be at. Imagine standing next to the almighty and this is the moment where you're deciding or should I say he's deciding if you're going in or out and that is brought up imagine how you would feel knowing how you use the time and time again out of context as if he was like the last thing in the pantry to eat so you just force yourself to not be hungry sometimes if the world would say all I can do is pray and do it we wouldn't be where we are right now I just look forward to listening to the song and I like inspiring people it's just I saw this one commented it it just kind of threw me through a loop because I feel for the depressed person that is really rock bottom and literally doesn't know how to get out but then there's the other ones but I won't get started I just listen to this song God bless everyone
That's me right now
@@ValerieandDanielleIt’s not always easy. However, God has not abandoned you. He feels every ounce of pain. Every tear that has been shed. He always want you to come to Him no matter what. Doesn’t what what you’ve done, He wants YOU. Jesus loves you ❤
At 15 years old I lost both my parents and brother in a car accident that I somehow lived through. We were on our way to say our goodbyes to my grandma who died 12 hours after the wreck. That was in 1996 and I still struggle with my depression and probably always will
Gezuz .. that’s brutal
I am so sorry that you had to experience that kind pain at such a young age, not many people experience grief from losing multiple very close family members all at once. I lost my father when I was 15, he was not only a great Dad- but sometimes he was like my mom also. I can't imagine how hard that must of been for u, your a very strong person & remember that your times of pain & struggle is what makes u who u are...
I couldn’t imagine the pain you’ve been through so young. I am very sorry for your loss
I’m so sorry you had to go through that so young . Your so strong ! ❤️❤️❤️
"The Lord is near to the brokenhearted, he saves those who are crushed in spirit." | 《Psalm 35:18》♡
My moment is right now. I’m listening to your song as I sit at my husband’s grave. It’s been 4 months now without him and I’m still having to remind myself to breathe in and out. 💔❤️🩹
I'm so sorry for your loss! It's almost to soon to offer comforting words. Idk where in the grieving process you are but let me feel you they bounce around, you can go from Angry to sad in 1/2 day! Be strong, think of good memories, and blessings always.
" I pray the good Lord may asuiage the anguish of your bereavement"
Thinking of and praying for you!
Boo freaking hoo
My hands on your back. Youre not alone. Lost the only girl I loved to cancer at 31 without being able to tell her i loved her. I think of her weekly. Its unbearable sometimes.
My heart hurts for you. I don’t think I can say anything to make you feel better but just know in time your heart will handle the hurt differently - your husband may not be physically with you but I promise you he is & he can hear you and your thoughts 🤍
Been homeless for two years. My wife passed away. Fell off the waken for a while. Homeless but I do have a job. Keep fighting. Just go to work everyday I'm sober things are coming around. Thanks for the things you are saying. Keep it up
Hugs. Blessings.
43 years old now. Found out I have borderline personality disorder 5 years ago. It felt so good to find out why I have felt the way I have my whole life. So many times I wanted to just die. Several attempts, fortunately failed. I have 2 daughters, and a wife to live for. Cognitive behavior therepy saved my life. Used meds to get stable, but didn't like the monotone life I was leading on them. FIND SOMEONE TO TALK TO. Thats the only thing that works for me. To anyone who struggles, you are loved! Even when you don't see it.❤
It's important to note: once you get past depression you are so many times more stronger.
Sometimes it's impossible to get past it 😢
Kimberly you are so right.
I am at my lowest tonight 🙏
@@Kimberly-ps5sq Yeah I agree, I try keep my chin up and fight each day, I'm 38 and still fighting. It is a mental illness I don't think it does pass? its something we have to except and may have to live with forever.
@@Kimberly-ps5sq i don't think you can completely get rid of it because it is the way your mind tells you something is wrong much like how your body feels pain. I've gone through the big one s like heart break and insecurities I'm 1000 stronger after I figured it all out. Depression will always be apart of our lives but only pay it the attention it deserves "oh I feel bad I'm going to do something about" and no more👍
