Wow first time ive seen this , hope your good babe x@@DaniellaChristina1
Life has a hopeful undertone. Stay strong whoever reads this.
Lovely comment! I agree, always stay strong x
DaniellaChristina1 I love you🤗😭
You have no idea how you just blessed me with this video popping up on my feed. I've watched you and your sister for a long time, congrats on your beautiful relationship and baby boy. I'm just realizing I've been depressed for a very long time and I'm just coming to terms. I'm going to show this videos to my loved ones to try and get them to understand how it feels. Thank you SO SO SO much. ❤❤❤❤
Im so happy i have blessed you with it! that was my goal for so many people!! :) xx
Very well spoken. I've had severe depression for 40+ years and have always kept it to myself. I admire you for being willing to talk to us out here who are not strong like you and hide our lives.you are a beautiful person.
just want to help people xxx
Have you ever thought of becoming a motivational speaker for young people? I think you would be successful and encouraging for young people struggling with the same thing.
hunny blush yeah because I'm 13 and hearing other people's stories and ways they copied helps me so much
I would love to be a motivational speaker! That would be amazing so thank you for the comment :) xx
I always find it so bizarre when you mention your addiction and depression because I've watched you videos for years and would have never guessed that you were going through these off camera 😔
Rachel agreed she always seemed extremely confident. I would have never guessed either.
That is a face :) but i do feel confident today x
It is crazy how you just never know what someone is going through x
DaniellaChristina1 it is. Good to see you've managed to turn it around! x
Rachel this is the case for 100% of anybody will ever meet in your life! Absolutely everybody is going through something that they don’t talk about!
Thank you for this video, its really refreshing to see someone so real on youtube nowadays. I've been struggling with depression and I'm in my 3rd year of uni and it's really difficult, this video really helped!xx
Stay strong! Stay the course and get your degree :) xx
Please get help from your doctor if depression kicks in again after giving birth. Best wishes to you
Yes I'm aware of this :) my baby comes first x
DaniellaChristina1 it's should be done in a risk assessment and your midwife and health visitor should support you. I'm high risk on mine because of my struggles after an abusive relationship. I'm with someone amazing now but I still struggle, get very upset and get scared. I'm not taking medication anymore and don't want to while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding.
Thank you for sharing your story. It takes courage to be so vulnerable. I believe you're in school for law but I think your true calling may be in counseling/therapy/music therapy. You have such a pure heart and soothing spirit...you could help so many. A person that has gone through so much and come out on the happier side of life can bring others with them. You my dear were put on this earth to make a difference. This is just the beginning. Big ((hugs)) from St. Louis, Missouri ☺️
TGRAM7 Such a beautiful comment, thank you for that. Danni has such a pure and beautiful soul, she loves uplifting people and making them smile. I really am a lucky guy aren't I 😉 Lots of love from us in England x
Jake Saxon You're both very lucky to have one another. Love like yours is rare, treasure it 😊
There is something incredibly special about you Dani. Love yourself because God made you unique and thoughtful.

Thank you for being brave ❤️ I'm excited to hear your story 😊
Thank you, lots of much!

Being afraid of dying sounds more like an anxious state rather than depressed
I have anxiety and depression
You have so much strength for making this video! We have such similar stories, I got bullied in year 7&8, I felt lonely, isolated, sad, everything you did throughout secondary and due to that and personal issues I got diagnosed with depression and anxiety at around 14, I suffered with self harm and like you at college I turned to alcohol (and "party" drugs) but I was never really addicted as such. I turned my life around like you did, I have a baby girl due in may, although depression is still there, I have it under control but my main worry is getting prenatal depression. I've watched you for many years and would never of guessed you were going through that! 💖
Don't worry about the prenatal depression, just take it as it comes and stay mentally in the zone and strong for your little one! Your baby will be the best gift life can give you and we will both have the most beautiful birth and year with our babies :) Surround yourself with positive, happy and caring people and remember life is beautiful! xxx
Laura keep in touch with your health professionals babe, they are there to help you, midwifes and health visitors are there to support you. I'm due with a girl in May, I really struggled till Christmas it's only the last month and a half that I've really started feeling better. My ex husband and his family made my first pregnancy hell. It's made me extremely anxious this time and depressed at times. I still have days were I still feel extremely down, Saturday was a bad day but everyone is aware and I'm open about it. Talking always helps. Xxx
I can 100% relate to the fear of dying as a kid. I have feared it immensely since I was probably about 8 and used to just cry my eyes out alot about it and have been diagnosed with depression since I was around 14. Its such a hard thing to go through but Im so glad you are much better now and hopefully the down moments stay away :) x
Me too I feel like I have been having panic attacks about dying since I was about five. Sometimes I feel like I shouldn't have child because I don't know what to say about dying to them. when my mum told me about it, it felt like a joke.
bellefairydust your mom told you about death? I just realized, I've never had anyone explain what dying is to me as a child (I'm 18 now). But I have a little sister, would you suggest talking to her about it? Especially because our father just passed away two months ago and I don't think she understands.
Oh really, thats interesting I just assumed its something parents tell their kids when their young. My mums a Christian so she just said when you die you go to heaven, but I was still was afraid. At the same time mum told my brother the same thing and he seems to cope or seems unfazed. Different people handle in different ways. Perhaps if your sister is asking questions about your father you may want to say something, how old is she?
bellefairydust I never even knew "the death talk" was a thing. We're religious too so we told her he's in heaven and all that but surely she doesn't understand. She never asks about him which is fairly weird? Maybe we should take her to a therapist or something, I'm just scared she'll suffer in silece in a few years. She's ten.
oh ok so how did you find out about it then. My mum could have been telling us about the bible and then it may have just lead on to that or we may have asked questions, I was quite young. You could maybe ask her if she thinks about your father, and that you miss him, you are there for her whenever. She may not fully understand stand yet, but talking and getting her to open will give a better view. Maybe she does no but holding it in.
Wow that was an absolutely beautiful video.
This comment has made my day ahah thank you so so much and for being so supportive! xx
Can really relate to a lot of the stuff you spoke about this video. My depression is keeping me from being sociable and I just want to be alone most of the time, so it was relieving to hear that I'm not the only one that's been affected in that way.
Would love to see the anxiety & addiction video! ❤
Yes i will do an anxiety and addiction video for sure! xxx
They say you never experience true joy unless you have had true sadness. I'm so happy that you got through. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for the comment! it is so so true xxx
The background music in this is so lovely. I've also suffered from depression since I was 11/12 and it's been really great to hear you speak openly about this issue. Congratulations on your year of sobriety as well :) thank you for making this ❤
Thank you for the comment and congratulations! It means the world to me :) Stay strong and life is a beautiful thing, so the light not the dark and find goodness in everyone and everything, this quotes help me xx
Thank you for being so honest and real, I'm sure this will help lots of people. Going through a difficult journey will just make you appreciate the good times even more. I'm so glad you've finally found happiness!
I always want to help people! xxx
It's interesting there is a study that shows people with blue eyes are more prone to addiction. I def think certain people are more prone to mental illness it's a lot to do with how the brain chemically works. I just want to say this is such a powerful video and you have so much strength I know that this will help a lot of people and ai can relate to it. I have a learning dissability that nobody can "see" I used to work 100 times harder then everyone else and still that wasn't good enough. I still suffer from anxiety and panic attacks from PTSD I experienced as a child when my dad tried to throw me across the room because I couldn't figure out a math problem due to my dissability. It's horrible.
Great video and great UA-cam comeback! You've morphed into an inspiring individual.
That is such an amazing comment! thank you! xxx
Your story came across so real.. unlike some others that are out there, no saying the others didn't battle a mental illness.. but yours was something else. I could relate with how you explained the details of being somewhat in denial about your depression in every day life. You're a beautiful soul, remember that xo
Im so happy it came across real because thats how i am and don't try to fool anyone with being fake! Honesty always xx
Thankyou for sharing your story and I love how you are just yourself you don't put on any act your just yourself and you are amazing for that! .....This brought me to tears to be honest because I've been through a lot of the same thing. I'm so glad you've found happiness you deserve it. 💛🌸💐
Aww Thank you so so much! that means the world x
DaniellaChristina1 ☺😘🌷 x
Thank you for sharing you depression story... you are such a wonderful person inside out... love you Danny
Thank you
I can honestly say that out of all these types of videos on the internet, you explained it exactly how it is. Watching this gave me tears because I felt as though I gave you a letter and you've just said everything I would've said in that letter if that makes sense? Probably doesn't make much sense tbh but honestly I didn't realise how much I relate to you!! Here's to us overcoming the storm💗 lots of love Dani, this video is going to help more people than you would think! Thank you for this.
Abbie Reavley This is beautiful x
I'm SO grateful that you shared this! I really struggle with shame around how I'm affecting other people, especially my family, with my depression and anxiety and I wonder if you struggle with that too? I know it's nothing to be ashamed of, but that's how I feel.
When you have God in your life it really takes the fear of dying away!! At least for me, It really helps knowing you are unconditionally loved and where you are going.
It feels so good to know that i'm not alone because I relate so much because i have depression ❤
You are never alone!! no one is and thats why i made this video! xx
This video touched me in so many different ways. Thank you for being brave enough to share your story, I can't wait to hear the rest x
I suffer from severe anxiety and depression, I'm 16 and I was diagnosed at 14 and have always been listening to breath me by sia as well. I have tried to take my life and i still feel suicidal. I also love love singing and have been singing forever. so much love xx
I genuinely appreciate this video. I found your story and words saddening yet uplifting. It made me see things differently within myself, and make me realise things that I didn't know were there. Thank you xxx
Im so happy that it did and i hope you are happy and the video has left you more uplifted then sad! :) xxx
I've been depressed, I learnt to need to accept what is happening and that nothing is forever. The feeling you have today will not last it's about controlling the balance.You will have shits days and you will struggle but it's not impossible to come out of it. Although people use music and drink to ease the pain but that's never the answer and I feel like there's nothing in place in the UK for this kind of support its not highlighted the government encourage drinking, drugs and it's killing the youth and our society
uksai mah Everything is meant to be just the way it is 😉
I love that Sia song so much, I relate to it so much and I still listen to it now when I feel down. I have anxiety and depression, have had them ever since I can remember in all honesty and I'm only 18, 19 next month. I'm so proud of you for making this video
Stay strong! life is a beautiful thing x
What helped you get over it ? Xx
Many of things... realisation that life can be better and i deserve happiness... i will do a video on this! ? x
you really never know what someone is going through, thanks for sharing your story Daniella... can't have been easy ♥♥ xoxo
Thank you and no life isn't easy! but happiness is worth it :) x
Thank you for making this video
Thank you! xxx
There's always light in the darkness and Jake is your light, Noah will be your beacon. I will be here waiting to give you a hug, love you Danny and sorry for causing some of this..:(
xxxxx
this is such a touching story. I know you feel xx
this has touched me so much. thankyou. love you😢😢
Love you to :) xxxx
I'm half way through this video and gosh this is so relatable. I never thought someone had the same kind of experience when they struggled with depression.
My biggest regret is not being myself earlier in my teenage years and I still struggle with being myself at 17 years old
Yes that is how i felt aswell!! But i am completely myself today and so so happy, i feel i had to go through the pain to get to where i am now and thats why i don't and cant have any regrets :) xx
This is very brave and relatable! Thank you for making this .. I'm wondering did you ever get diagnosed? Xxx
Hi, Yes i did get diagnosed x
thank you for opening up about this issue, very inspiring! x
Unfortunately, I feel you on so many levels :(
Stay Strong xx
Thanks for sharing. Proud of your progress! Keep going, you're great!
Kisses from Canada xox
Thankyou for such an honest video x you are a brave woman to show this to the world but its a very good thing as I know how crippling mental illness can be. I subscribed as this is very interesting. I do mentalhealth advice videos based on my own life you may find them helpful... keep strong and never give up. Peace and ps your gorgeous 😉😍
michelle xx
I can relate to you so much on this video and the Sia song breathe me I use to listen to that when I was younger snd depressed such a sad and meaningful song!x
Her music is just amazing! i totally agree xxx lot of love and stay happy
I wish you spoke more on what changed and enabled you to get past your depression and pull yourself out of the dark place?
I can do a follow up video :) x
I feel like you are one of those people I can relate to. A lot of people see me as this happy, go-lucky kinda guy, someone who is relatively popular and doesn't have to worry about much in my life. The sad reality is, people only see the mask I have been wearing for the past several years. What people don't see is the depression I have been dealing with since I was 11 (I am currently 17, about to turn 18), and the struggles I have been having with it.
Countless times I have wanted to kill myself, and a couple times I made some serious moves towards it. Early on in my depression, I found comfort in playing lacrosse, building things (whether that be with Legos or something else), and video games. As time progressed, I started to feel disconnected from the things that helped me get through my depression, mainly lacrosse and my parents.
Recently my depression hasn't been too bad, mainly because of the help I have been getting through therapy, but I still fear that it will come back with a vengeance, ready to drag me down into a dark abyss.
I do feel like hearing your story and how you have managed to handle it may help me deal with my depression.
Omg the last 5 minutes are literally my goals
You will achieve your goals :) xxxx
i would love to hear about your addiction story Dani, this has been super helpful. Thankyou xx
I will do a video on it for sure! xx
You're amazing thank you so much when I was younger I felt exactly like you I felt so alone thank you so much for sharing again
Loved this video, thank you so much for telling your story!
I've been sceared of dying since a young age. I remember crying in bed and having nightmares about it and i could never explain to my mum why. I still don't like talking about it now. I've never been diagnosed with depression and have never really thought about it in that way but i do have days where i just cry without knowing why..
Does anyone else 'suffer' from that? If yes have you ever been to get help or something?
Why don't you just go to the doctor and have a chat and see what they say for your own benefit, but its completely your choice and depends how bad it is for you! xx
You are such a beautiful person and You look so pretty like fresh 🍀
Aww thank you!!
I do the same exact thing, listen to breathe me and just sob and sob and sob and im also depressed and have anxiety and im actually really depressed right now and i cant live anymore
such an inspiring video. I definitely can relate to. I hope you do more videos like this in the future.
I certainly will! i want to focus my channel on life, health and motivation x
You're amazing xxx
Dani, thank you for sharing.
for the next time, please no music. it's smooth but it kinda distracts
asmrsounds That's your opinion and you're entitled to it but I actually like the music and so do a vast majority of other people so I say keep the music... stay happy 😘
Hope your okay hun. That's like me too at the age of 14 to now 27 nothing help's :(
Life is beautiful and can be a beautiful thing! Find happiness, not someone else happiness but your own happiness!! xx
I'm so happy for you ❤
Lots of love xxx
I'm 22 and I remember thinking and fearing death from age 5-6 and having panic attacks when thinking too much into it. I still think of it but it's not as bad. I can relate to the anxieties you've described and I assume that I do have some form of anxiety. However, I believe I'm a happy and content person, and I do not suffer from depression. Do you feel like your depression and anxiety are intertwined or separate?
I feel that they are intertwined sometimes and sometimes i just feel each separately so it really can alter and differ day to day! just managing both separately is a good way of managing both for me x
Love your honesty 💜❤️
Thank you! honesty is so important to me!! xx
thankyou so much for this video
Thanks
ive been bullied 3 years now i have bad low self esteem about myself for ages i have thought saying im worthless and i just think like i want to die all the time i self harm and my parents dont know have u got any advice💔😭 i am scared of being alone i cant order food on my own i struggle concentrating i have day where i aleays want to cry bullying hasnt stopped i walk down corridors and people call me name
Just sounds like a normal teen who hates school 😫
jacqueline watson ....no
It sounds like that to you. That's the way you perceive it when you hear her story because you don't understand depression. It's deeper than just hating school. That was only part of the experience in the story of her depression.
jacqueline watson the majority of teens suffer from depression. If things are so bad you see this as normal...please seek help
Thank you for understanding, i wouldnt make this video if i just didn't like school lol
Omg I used to listen to Breathe Me all the time when I was depressed too!
And thank you so much for this video. I relate to it so much. The thing you said about your brain feeling sick is a very accurate description to something that is so hard to describe.
Im so happy you relate but at the same time i hope you are stable now and are happy! xxx
Loved this thank you for talking about it
I love your voice. I just sit and listen.
I'm glad you got through it! Did you receive any professional help?
Yes i did a little bit! but i mostly concerned it on my own x
I was watching this and thinking: where is Sammi in this story? You just mentioned her once in this video... i have sister and we are 7 years apart, but i always have her in my difficult moments, i can talk to her about everything and we take care of each other. Was she aware what is going on with you?
Anna Gor k
I think so... I dealt with it mostly on my own and thats why I'm a strong person for my unborn son and family today :) xx
So how did you overcome your depression?
You have so much courage girl x
Lots of love! That means a lot! xxxx
thanks for sharing I'm depressed because of my incontinence
Did you not contact a doctor, go on medication or go to therapy?
I will do a follow up video! or message me privately :) x
Thank you for sharing this! Xx
Very deep video, it means a lot to me cuz i think im going through something similar i just don't know where to find help. I want to tell my mom but i dont want to dissapoint her (i'm actually calles 'the smartest', 'most responsable', 'most educated' etc. child of the family). Could you tell us what exactly did u do to recover from depression? Thank u
Talking to someone that you trust is a good idea! And the most intelligent person in the world can be the most depressed so don't feel that you will let anyone down!! Your family should be there to support you through the good and bad times :) It took me years to fully understand i had depression and realise my life was unmanageable the way i was living so i got doctors help and got advice and went by my instinct to change and be happy xx
Thank You!
inspirational x x
💖your an angel.!
You should sing for us :)
It’s ALL normal!… Did your parents never explain to you what anxiety and depression are or feel like and that it is normal… I definitely did not have that! But now I am 38 years old and I have two nephews, no kids of mine yet. But I watch my sisters talked to my nephews and help them through their anxiety and it’s normal they have at to but since they have mommies and daddies that explained everything to them they have a much easier time! I was around the same ages you when I really started getting depressed but I had anxiety a lot when I was younger because I never knew what was going on my parents were super young. And they were so selfish and they would just be like you’re fine you’re fine, but they would never explain that it was normal and I never feel safe so that’s big for me now has a grown-up feeling safe! And I have a wonderful husband who is helping me through everything and they also see a therapist and I’m learning that everything I’ve ever been through it’s completely normal and I’m trying to retrain my brain and talked to my childhood self, talking myself through all my childhood traumas and it’s really helping! For example when sadness comes or a particular anxiety that reminds me of a time when I was young I will talk to little Lindsay and explain things to her… Lindsay has Me by the way LOL… And then I feel much much better I hope that this is something that will help you!
Also when I was 13 my dad openly confess that he wished that he had never had me and that was a running theme throughout my whole life he’s always pointed out that I am half fast! But I let him down, he would called me a bitch and if I wore a dark colored lipstick he would say that I look like a flat… He even told me at the age of 15 that I needed to get late because it would make me less of a bitch. I grew up in a very toxic home! Growing up I thought it was normal but now that I am married I see how really messed up it all was.
Oh that sia song “breathe me” 😭💔 I grew up in the 80s and 90s and I have a whole list of songs are used to listen to that made me cry! When my Nana died at age 11 I saw her dad in the casket it was the first time I have ever been to a funeral it’s completely freaked me out and the big song then was November rain. I kind of don’t even want to share the songs that I listen to to because they make me feel sick and I don’t want to encourage anyone to listen to the songs that I listened to. 😭 thank you for sharing your story I know how hard this must have been! Sending warm hugs from CT USA!

I know talking at Manny mua later...
