Yikes. Lots of Christianity being discussed in a negative light. I am a Christian and it's the only thing that's kept me going.

yesterday was 25 years since I attempted suicide actually, and it's the first year I didn't get a card from my mom that said "thank you for choosing life", but she died in November so I suppose I'll forgive her. ❤❤❤

Is this the guy who wrote the white paper on BASED AI crypto ?

Also, Definitely one of the best memoir titles ever on this podcast. 🤣

I signed up for the panda reincarnation program already. I can't wait. 🐼 I really enjoyed listening to you guys. I'd love to have Dustin as a Peer Support Specialist. I hope that Dustin gets his sight back soon! I hope Dave gets an interesting hobby and finds something better to talk about. I find Tiny Houses interesting too.

18:15 I've heard about this and tried warning everyone I know that smokes/eats alot of weed. They weren't lying about reefer madness. They were just exaggerating about it. My brother in law had a mental break after being on tons of edibles.

I've not been doing well lately. I've had intrusive thoughts of suicidal ideation on and off since spring 2020. Ever since I turned 40 in January it's got even more difficult. I hope that listening to these will help me because nothing else that I've tried has helped.

For the first twenty minutes I was thinking that fire alarm sound was on my end😂

1:24:00 Nice to know someone else has a similar opinion on this guy haha. I can appreciate the amount of people he has helped and I don’t want to undermine how lucky he is to survive and tell his story, but I always disliked how sometimes his story is used as THE be-all objective answer. Suicide prevention in my earlier school years was just playing that guys video on a projector. I dislike how those old motivational videos with intense music don’t leave much room for deeper thinking. I think the suicidology behind suicide is much more complex than how those surface-level vids make it, and I believe this podcast is great at emphasizing that. Always love when a first responder shares their story. Thanks for sharing, M!

Do you know why your RUclips Channel views, subscribers are not increasing! What is the reason?

My home town🎉

Which episode was it that he said he would suicide in the fall?

He quoted "The Other Guys" lol

🙏Thanks.

Can you post his playlist link/name from Spotify? I would love to hear his playlist and maybe let him feel “seen” and supported

I hope you have a good day, know that JESUS died for you and loves you so very much!

"promosm" 😠

Can't believe you managed to reach 200 episodes! I don't know if that's a good thing considering the topic... but I guess that means 200 episodes of people feeling brave enough to share their story and hopefully making others feel less alone. Thank you for being one of the most raw down to earth podcasts out there.

Congratulations on the 200, and thanks for doing this.

Really liked listening to this one. Deece came off to me as rlly eloquent and poetic. I could visualize each part of their story which was very interesting and informative. Also, as we enter the new year, I hope it’s okay to share my appreciation for this podcast under this video. I’m a mere RUclips listener. Found this channel around May of 2023 while looking for something to listen to as I did schoolwork. I almost didn’t click the video that was recommended to me then. I’m so glad I did click it. Long story short, in 2023 living was unbearable, so being able to pop headphones in and listen to people who know how that feels was very comforting. Sean is a great listener who doesn’t leave out the nitty gritty while catering to each guest’s comfort level and personality at the same time. I love it. At times I laugh at the host-guest interactions, and at other times my heart breaks listening to the guest’s stories. I wish suicide didn’t exist, but it does and may always will, and this podcast faces that hard truth, sharing stories and wisdom from all walks of life in a way I’ve never seen (heard) before. So thanks for deciding to create this podcast one day (and posting it to RUclips), and wishing everyone a fulfilling 2024.

This makes me wonder what the withdrawl effects of going off hormones without tapering are. Off to consult with lord google. It's almost like the people who claim to want to help can cause a lot more harm with intollerance and ignorance. I want to write a stern and gramatically incorrect letter to the parents of D for they/them. I don't think it would help at all though. The impulse in solidarity with D is there. D has a great memoir gift, there's no doubt about that, as well as inspiring perserverence and strength. I hope D's parents are coming around to fully learning how to love D in an empowering way. Praise for not being on social media, it's another substance, in my experience and opinion. Androgyny is beautiful, so is D. Good for D. I appreciate D's poeticism and sharings here, very powerful. Thanks for the platform, Sean.

He has some great coping mechanisms such as no drugs or alcohol and also tinkering with found items to create things. That is all so healthy.

This was very insightful.

Are you happy yet!?! No! Stop asking me. I am going to be cycling through unexpected & unexplained depression the rest of my life.

PMDD! Omg NOBODY TALKS ABOUT THIS! Being on birth control is one way I have been able to manage this. So many psychiatrist just dont understand how seriously debilitating this is! I am crying!!!!!!!!

For the love of God! Let me Kill Myself Already! 😂 I get you man.

WOW! Alyssa you are such a lovely person! I am so glad you shared your story. I really hope we get to hear more from you! I can't wait to get an update.

😂 Your too depressed I cant help you! I have had therapist drop me because of that!

Hey, it's jamoalki! He got me through some tough times! Good to see you guys link up!

Professional hider of everything! Yep. There are so many people, close to me, that have no idea this side of my life exists.

I agree with the sentiment that clinicians, family & friends completely drop off after the *crisis* ends. It is so frustrating because it takes MONTHS for many antidepressants to start working. It seems like nobody thinks about that.

Romancing depression... it is so fashionable to be depressed right now. Everyone I know has Bi-polar or Depression. So now, everyone goes through it.. it's normal... just cope, deal with it.

I dont reach out because of all of these things plus I always feel like I have too much to say. Like the person listening is thinking to themselves, hurry up, get to the point, stop complaining & get over it.

Overlookable, dismissable, is such a good way to describe things. Even when screaming out for help. Dealt with instead of handing with care, made a lot of sense to me too.

Another ECT treatment story! This also saved my life. Messed with my memories/ memory, but i am so glad to hear someone advocate for this.

Exactly! I fucking say NO EVERY time because if I say I have ideation, they will treat & talk to me like a kindergartener. I hate it.

I tried to od on Seroquel also, I was sooooo pissed off when I woke up! Then I had the worst restless legs for 48 hrs.

Yes yes yes!!! I just can't stop thinking about it! And it feels so good ans comforting to know I have the option to kill myself if I need to. At some point.

I so can relate! My dad literally told me in my hospital room after my attempt "I don't need this shit right now." 😒

You are telling my story! ❤ ECT works wonders, but it definitely wrecked my memory. Long and short memory, term gone! ECT saved my life more than one time! Only treatment that works for me sometimes.

I wish I could get in touch with Matthew. He seems like a cool guy. Wish I had a friend like that. He sounds like a genuine guy.

what web-program was r talking about, the one where people submit their experience with suicide?

Lifting weights works to im a lifter as well I use it to cope or dull the mental pain you lift hard enough your in pain for days kinda brings you back to reality just like self harm does !!

This was great to have the perspective of a therapist sorry your struggling but great insight

this one’s heartbreaking for me, as a trans person. i’ve been suicidal for so long, it sucks to remember that it’s a common experience. i love this podcast and i think this was the first one to really stick with me. it’s odd to see yourself mirrored back in such a light, but nice.

No, I didn’t like this one. Don’t want to minimize Matthew’s pain but he literally has more opportunities than any other demographic in the world. He doesn’t have to stay in South Africa complaining about being the minority when his ancestors colonized the place. Go to England and see if you can fare better there. Sadly he missed your point about people who previously had their voices ignored and now have the power to ‘cancel’ someone and made it about himself who has always been on top and in a position of power. I think part of this conversation missed the mark. His depressive feelings are valid but not at the expense of people who are clearly in a worse situation than him (country wise). Let’s not give a platform for racism and entitlement for people who are still too blind to recognize it in themselves.

This was one of the best episodes I’ve listened to. He’s so articulate and I truly hope he finds a miracle that makes his life worth living.
