Full respect for this. Fantastic presenter.
Well done Patrick a warm and heart felt talk. Yes people like you help people you may never know. God bless you Patrick
What a brave young man to open up like this on air. Your words and honesty do you credit.
Well done Patrick and thank you.
Patrick is becoming another Farage--me-me-me-me- and more me-me--LOL
Yeah funny that, how he uses his own personal frame of reference just like every other human being on the planet. How selfish of him to have not developed psychic abilities to be able to assume the operations and emotions of another person's mind.
Bless you for sharing your story.
Thank you for using your best platform to promote everyone's mental health.
That’s the best speech I’ve heard from GB News. All very very well said. I am supporting my lovely son through a difficult patch at the moment and I understand exactly what you are saying. Thankyou.🇬🇧
This is why GB News is the best news broadcaster in the UK. You wouldn't see the corrupt BBC or ITV having a heart to heart with you through your TV screens in a subject so sad. Also the fact he is a man opening up about his mental health he is showing us men it's okay to talk.
Spot on
Well said 👍
Much respect to you Patrick and thankyou for sharing with us. My cousin committed suicide some years ago, he worked for radio 6 and to everyone else he seemed successful and happy. He was silently suffering and his passing was a huge loss to all of us. I’m so happy to hear things improved for you, love your show and I wish you all the best for the future. x
Take it from someone who knows; those who bitch and whine about being depressed, like the majority of selfish young idiots these days, one can take with a pinch of salt.
Those who are truly suffering wear a mask of such intricately crafted deception that one can never suspect the depth of their anguish, often not until it is too late.
I'm truly sorry for your loss.
@@kn3448 Thankyou so much, I totally agree with you. x
Keep looking up Patrick glad you have come out the other side and are helping others 👏🙏
You're a sincere and 'Good Man' Patrick - thanks 👍✌
this guy patrick is so spot on with most things, if only our mp's were like him ???
So pleased that you are on this platform. The one that comes over from you is your honesty you’re a very likable person. I love the way you use your voice as to the things that need to be said . Your work ethic is brilliant. Your mum would be very proud of you well done for everything that you are doing and I’m sure there is more to come. Well done
Patrick one of the best shows on GB News.
I have had a mental health problem in my youth. I had a break down but never would harm anyone and became homeless, i was a danger to myself. I got treated poorly and lost everything but overcame it and became free from meds 10 years without treatment, thanks to Jesus. There's a difference between mental health though and criminals who do evil. We excuse evil due to poor mental health, that needs to change. Thank you for sharing your story Patrick!
Lovely message. Thank you Patrick
Thank you for taking openly about this.
Aussie here 👋 just had this video pop up on my feed. Thankyou for your efforts and honesty...this problem sadly is world wide. Sending much respect from Western Australia 🇦🇺 🙂🦘🦘🦘
I felt that, I needed that and I am grateful for the honesty. I use my local Mind service. Thank you 💜
I've spent the last year doing a paddling marathon in the Lake District to raise funds for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably). Everyone has a wobble in life.
Real talk Pat - good heart!!!! ❤❤❤🙏👌👍
You are a true Diamond 💎 young man. You have great morality and compassion. God bless ya for what you've done there with your fund raising.
I'm proud of you.

Thanks for your honesty and passion ❤ (Retired RN here)
Nothing we go through is ever wasted . Your courage integrity and compassion will have saved lives . No one can do this alone , we aren’t designed that way . We are here to walk each other back home . 🙏
Very brave to share your story and I know your story will help more people. It helped me. Thank you. 🙏🏻❤️
Thank you Patrick, and all.
Patrick, you have done a great thing raising money but above all raising awareness of the invaluable help available from MIND. Thank you from a parent of someone who has daily mental health challenges but who is doing ok.
Wow! Thank you for being so open. That wasn’t easy. You totally made a difference for me and I’m sure many others. ❤
It takes guts to reveal mental illness and how it has impacted you and i am so glad you have got to a safe place in your life.
You're an absolute joy to listen to and you're a lovely human being.
You look after yourself Patrick and thank you for being so open , it will help a hell of a lot of people, you're an absolute ⭐. God bless.
Well Done Patrick! A wonderful cause to support.
Well done, patrick! Keep raising awareness on mental health issues. Xx ❤️
Thank you for your honesty.
Well said Patrick! You are so appreciated!
Fantastic Patrick ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Yes, we do love you. Well done mate. ❤
You're a grand young man Patrick ❤....and you have done incredibly well for this important charity.
My respect to you Patrick for sharing your experience and your voice to help others in urgent need. Keep up the good work. Wishing you continued success and wellness.
I am a person who 'every single day' has looked at the Pure Evil going on in the World. My demons I carry are real. I fought for those who were unable to fight for themselves. I fought for the love of my Country. I fought to rid the World of Evil Men. Yet on my return, the very Country that I love so very much has turned its back on me, and the men and women that I served with so honourably. Then by chance I came across your broadcast...YOU... 'Patrick' have very simply dragged me away from a very dark place. You are an exceptionally honourable man, and a pure light from the chaos of our World. Be very proud Sir of the person you are. May God bless you Patrick.
Thank you for your honesty!❤️❤️
Top man Patrick 👍🇬🇧👍 had a lump in my throat listening to you, I mean this, the world's a better place with you in it, GB News and Patrick Christys are a marriage made in heaven 👍👍.. LEGENDARY TOPMAN! Believe!

Aww Patrick, well done! My respect for you just went off the Richter scale!! Bravo and may God bless you and your wonderful family 👏❤️🙏
Patrick very emotional monologue, I to have Acute Anxiety for many years, I respect your honesty, and your efforts for MIND is awe inspiring, good luck, keep your mental health in check, people do not understand mental health, until your affected.
Thank-you for sharing
Vulnerability is courage voiced, thank you for your bravery in sharing your story. It’s because people like you can be real, that others are inspired to reach for help!
Well spoken Patrick. You’re a wonderful and strong man. Thank you very much for the honesty 👍🏻
Thank you for this.
I am so glad you're good well now.
In that one speech, you have helped me so very much.
It really did hit home.
Thank you.
You're a fantastic person!
Good for you Patrick I worked in a stressful high powered job and was a high profile well known union rep looking after 200 plus members I had it all or so I thought until I woke up 1 morning and literally couldnt string a sentence together. I went from a confident put together person to a frightened shell literally overnight. I was lucky my employers at that time took care of everything and got me the support and counselling I needed and with the help of my hubby son, grandkids and friends I slowly moved forward. Am I the same person as I was before it happened? No but I thank God that I'm still alive to tell my story. I will donate as soon as I have sent this
Please keep safe Tracy B x
Thank you Patrick, bless you.
Thank you so much for opening up so honestly about your own struggles Patrick. I am so glad your life has turned around. Massive respect to you for drawing attention to mental health and for your inpirational fund raising.
Thank you for speaking out. Especially as a male xx
I'm glad you made it through your dark times, Patrick x
What a brave man .
Well done Patrick you are so amazing 😊
Fair play to you mate. We need more of this
Thank you for those words.
Thanks Patrick how kind and thoughtful of you to share your story. Trust me you have probably saved someone's life 🇦🇺
Well done for the honesty Patrick 👍
Super Impressive. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing this.
Good one Patrick x
Well said. In reality there are people waiting more than a year for any useful intervention from completely broken mental health services.
We’ll say Patrick, so encouraging, thank you 😊
God Bless xxx
Thank you Patrick, I have bi-polar and MIND have helped me whilst waiting to see a specialist. I'm glad that you are on the road to recovery ❤
Thank you Patrick for sharing your story about your mental health and how you found a way back from nothingness. Mind is an amazing charity with some centres able to offer more services than others, like emergency counselling/therapy and advocacy. So hopefully the money raised will be given to the centres that need it most. God bless.
Very glad for you.
⭐ ♥ ⭐
Wonderful broadcast - I'm forwarding this to my dad & little sis who are Psychiatrists in Canada . . .
Going to donate £5 now - apologies it can't be more just now
You lovely chap.
So proud of you Patrick for doing this for a worthy cause x
Thank you for your selfless help.
I'm unable to get mental health help due to waiting list, it's disgraceful and no one cares
Well said Patrick. ❤
I think the arts in regards to art therapy especially for veterans with PTSD will help society collectively as it helps the individual
Patrick your the best x
I always love watching your show. I was there, bullied until I attempted suicide, like you I too had the support of a loving daughter and financial ability to seek help. I South Africa we as a society have marganlised our mentally ill people and this has been to the detriment of their families. I pray for more people like you 🙏
Love you Patrick ❤
What a guy 🙂💪
Watching this again a year later and it still helps me when I’m struggling. ❤
Thank you for sharing your story and addressing the constant stigma associated with mental health. Mind is amazing. You have to listen to yourself and be truthful to yourself.
Your honesty will help more people than you could possibly know
Bless your heart, thank you. But hug.
# big hug!
Good on ye Northerner! 🤩🥰 You are no failure! Glad to hear your good news. Well done you.
Now raised over £107k well done ❤❤❤
Thank you very much Patrick 🙏🏾 crying like a baby right now.
Your words of encouragement means a lot to me during this very challenging time of my life.
I lost a friend who was like a brother to me from suicide, I'm working on a documentary about Mental Health in the UK and France but I'm struggling to get more donations. It's not a documentary about me or my brother its about Mental Health. I feel so discouraged....thank you
😂 what a wimp
Good fellow!! respect>
Top man👍
Thank you Patrick 🙏😊tomorrow is a different day☺️
This hit my heart. The last few years have been hard for me. I too thought about things I shouldn’t but I had a loving family from afar and my two children to get me through. It really is amazing how a little bit of help and time can change your outlook and begin to feel better. I still have a lot of fear that I had during that time but I know it will be ok and work out.
Please, if you read this and feel in any way down or alone, it can get better if you take the step forward to ask for help and accept it. Please do. Your future could be amazing so stay and find out.
Thank you for sharing❤
Well Done …😎
Thank you for everything you’re doing. I lost my dad to suicide when I was 15, he was only 45 years old. I am now 54 and still miss him every day.
Wonderful ❤
❤❤❤
Respect to you.
❤❤
So proud of your steps you have taken to heal yourself and now wishing to pay it forward. Today as an American I celebrate independence day. Congrats on you wishing others in need of mental health care their own path towards independence. Blessings forward.
❤ beautiful people do brilliant things , personally I found this very hard to listen to, because it’s so true ,greet every person with a smile ,because you don’t know what ,they are going through and a simple smile costs nothing but can mean everything to someone who has nothing
Patrick thank you.
There needs to be a 4th emergency service... one dedicated to Mental health, basically paramedics with MH training, with handcuffs. Because at the moment MH is taxing the ambulance and police to a point where its all they can do.
Great news 👍👏❤️
