Thank you everyone who has bravely spoken about their journey. I really appreciate your honesty. Please remember you are not alone. Through this film I have tried to urge my viewers to seek professional help and their loved ones to support them at such a time. 🙏 There is nothing wrong in taking an effort to heal and don't let society tell you otherwise.
You said seek the professional and asked help from love one But what can one do if don't have money to pay as fees for professional help and also don't have any loved one?
Amen yea happy mental health awareness month everyone keep pushing don’t look back and continue fight yourself everyday !! You are you your best friend
Thank you Lex for acknowledging my humble effort. I am sorry you are living like this everyday and through this film I want to appeal to my viewers to reach out for help, and their loved ones to help them at such a time Thank you for being so brave and telling us.
This was a phase of my life I've just overcome. I shifted my focus towards gods and started listening God's songs. Spending time with nature, quite sitting at roof looking at moon and saying nothing just feeling the silence of sky to make myself calm.. I used to cry a lot, a lot... I was avoiding everything and never in mood of eating anything , uh I'm still in this phase but now my mind is calm, just calm and silent .. now I'm proud of myself I never let this anxiety to rule over me. I was with me when everyone was thinking I'm ok but inside I was going through with a lot.. sometimes it's really hard to get out of bed and pretend normal in front of family, not letting them know what you're facing. My emotional breakdown, burnout anxiety. I overcame over everything. I'm proud of myself and thank you God for always be with me ...
Thats really true, and im accepting that god gave me this feeling of all these emotions the depression, anxiety, bipolar, all matter is i just accept them all, feel them , i don’t know if i could better but im trying to living my life better
Amazing film showing the effects of Depression, Anxiety and the pressure to appear "normal" in a world where some people just cannot cope. The fact she didn't even feel she could tell someone close to her she wasn't well because she WAS unwell and, obviously, horribly, believed that she couldn't admit to it or her life would fall apart? That last scene was simply brilliant and terrifying, as she just cannot do it any more...
My girlfriend recommended this video to me. I really think this is one of the most powerful short films on depression that I have ever seen. The sound design, the cinematography and the acting are top notch. Kudos. You guys have done something amazing. You should be proud.
Bharat Bheesetti Thank you so much :) means a lot. I hope with more people talking about mental health it gets the attention it deserves and through this film we’ve attempted to do that. Thank you so much :)
Hellyeah! And work has always been like an escape for me , ever since my first job. Im good at it, working hard. So now the management wants me to move up and hey, I need more money to live comfortably so here I am now... A week in, not trying to adapt this new position into my usual lifestyle. . .this video is literally my day to day, replace the caffeine with Cannabis.. Days off are even less motivating. It takes hours to leave the house. Haha happy Sunday, Its 4:44pm and I'm barely gonna get out the house to run errands and go visit family.
Most of the times, I pretend to act normal around people when I'm feeling abnormal on the inside. My heart would feel heavy, I would have 0% words to say, I would rub my fingers together, I would feel hungry and nauseous at the same time, I would play with my necklace, and I would be too hard on myself. While watching the video, I saw the look on her face because I can tell that she was going through that same thing. I don't wanna sound wrong or incorrect while typing this, but it's the 100% truth. In conclusion, the video made me feel broken inside because I don't like the fact that we're going through all of this. Praying that everyone will do the best to cope with acting normal🥲❤️🙏🏽🥀
Thank you so much Sari. Thank you for being brave and telling us about it. I appreciate your honesty. Through this short film I want to urge my viewers to seek professional help and their loved ones to support them.at this time. I would urge you to do the same. My best wishes, and may you heal soon ❤️
This really sums up my depression. I’m always tired and still have trouble falling asleep. When school’s in session, my minds filled with anxiety and basically just living life on auto pilot while the rest of your minds just tries to stay awake without breaking down.
I feel like I’m not very normal. I feel like I have toxic relationships. I feel that I’m lonely. I have awkward conversations, I’m basically not normal. I want a bestfriend but too scared to talk to people but no. I’m really depressed as well... if u want an ibf, then here I am.. 😔
Wait I’m literally the same as you omg! I literally stopped being friends with everyone because I wanted to have time for myself and I find it really hard to talk to people and when I do I think they think I’m annoying and I don’t talk to anyone about my problems because I’m scared they will say I’m just “attention seeking” because that’s why everyone used to say to me. I’m lonely too but most of the time it’s better to be alone
You are not alone Maria, and there is nothing wrong with feeling different. You are human and the concept of normal is an expectation from society to live as per them. I would urge you to seek help professionally as I want to help.you but I am not.professionally qualified to do so. However as a friend I would personally , really recommend to try to walk out of these toxic relationships. I know it is easier said than done but having been through things in my own life, I would urge you to speak to people who truly love you rather than let toxic people control your emotions.
It is so much relatable....I don't feel I m okk....but their is no one to whom I feel okk to say all that I feel ....even if few asked me I can't be able to express exactly what I m feeling....I feel all alone....I tuck in my bed crying daily with no exact reason....even if I ask myself why m crying I can't find out exactly what is creeping in my veins which keeps breaking me from inside with each passing day....but in the end I just close my eyes hoping that it will also pass soon..😶....thanks for trying to aware the society towards such issues so that everyone will find someone atleat to listen to them ❤️
@@himaneebhatia9592 It’s truly very good, you have a gift. Sometimes few words with strong images and good acting are more powerful than just a lot of words, by far. This made me FEEL not THINK.
I don't even remember what normal feels like anymore I have got severe anxiety and panic disorder.,., I was such a cool person before always happy and life has bought me down to this ..,, life doesn't feel good anymore
I love these films because one of my favorite thing about them is the comments, they help people know and understand that you shouldn’t end your life because of other people, and to whoever is readin this comment right now. I want you to know your perfect, your pretty and your worth it so please don’t end it, don’t even THINK about it please. AND if its hard to not think of, seek therapy and serious help to release the stress out to some phone.
Depression is one of the toughest experiences to go through. It takes away a joy from life, convinces that you are worthless and alone. It disrupts sleep and takes away the energy. It is important to do what is good for you even though you don't feel like it. It is the first step to not give into getting better.
I'm depressed and have anxiety. What really upsets me the most about these videos, is that at least these kind of ppl have someone who texts or calls them why they don't want to hang out, or of they're ok, or constantly reaching out that they should hang! Not saying they have no rights to be depressed. I'm just stating that I don't even have anyone who calls or texts me when I'm down, not giving no worries about me. I don't even have friends. All my friends from years ago ghosted me when I messaged them a hi recently. They all ignored me. When I'm depressed everyday or night. Not even a "friend" messages me even if they're also an acquaintance. I don't even know what it feels like to have friends, to feel like I existed. I believe in real life glitch that I wasn't supposed to be here, anda here in the wrong lifetime, and nobody can convince me I am wrong bc everything seems to go so smoothly..... in a bad way
Excellent...God bless you..I have Bipolar I y I understand...with treatment...counseling y the Most High I am on a healing path...I pray for more patience y understanding in mental health arena❤🕯🌹🙏
I am so glad to hear you are healing Stacey. It is so brave of you to acknowledge what you are going through. You are not alone and with god's grace may you heal wonderfully 🤗
Now its becoming really hard to pretend normal...i want to express that i m suffering 😭😭😭....i m not happy with my life nd i just can't remain stuck like this.....its torturing
@Hannah Spencer its been better than that day i talked to a stranger that nyt whom i have never met or talked before, he solved my problem better than my friends...❤️
I am sorry Param that you are feeling this way but please remember this won't last forever. I hope you are feeling better. Are you seeking professional help?
Unfortunately, I've been living with a mental illness since I've been born. I'm multi-diagnosed with several debilitating diagnosis such as: OCD, BPD, BDD, EDNOS, BiPolar 2, PTSD, ADHD & Extreme Anxiety Disorder 😢 & ended up with TD (Tardive Dyskinesia) from my Psychiatric medication. As much as I try to hide my multitude of diagnosis from strangers, it's hard. I hate my life 😢. The only thing that honestly has saved me have been my stuffed animals. They're my only & true friends. No, they're not human, but, they're always here for me no how sad or Depressed I'm feeling. They've always been here for me through the roughest times in my life & I could not be anymore thankful that I have them in my life! Don't ever feel weird if you own stuffed animals as your biggest support system. They will save you! I know, they've saved my life many times over.
I am from an African family that is very spiritual and connected to our ancestors and if anyone knows how "diseases " are cured , you'll know how painful and traumatic it can be ,( once I had to stay at the "healers" place for a months and the days included morning medicine, some wounds are made to put the medicine on , some times I have to vomit for like couple of days to get the disease out , sometimes it really feels like an exorcism) , so because of all that I have to suppress everything, I dont wanna show or seem in anyway that isnt normal . I used to stay at the university but because of the COVID I just moved home and though I could act normal for recess I don't think I could do it full time. I have bipolar disorder which is stable for now, thank God but my BPD isn't.
Himani, kudos for touching upon an oft-neglected aspect in our daily lives, one which people are now more aware of. Just a thought here while I watched.. you have touched only upon the symptoms..... so why not touch upon on the reasons also? And maybe towards the end of the film - perhaps also a solution?
Brij Anand thank you uncle :) . Uncle this film is only a depiction of a day in the life of a person going through mental health issues. I purposely didn’t show the reasons for this as everyone’s journey is different. I have left it for the audience , as everyone watching it may have different reasons. Which is why i have left that question unanswered.
Life will throw a lot of shit at us. Given that's inevitable, what else is certain is the fact our voices, our actions, our surroundings... can most definitely have made a bright light out of. Everyone's situation is different. We've all had our own point of view on given matters: trauma, negligence, stress, responsibility, education, family, beliefs, etc. Even when I hear others say "I understand what you're going through", I'm like "Yeah, I find that hard to believe." We've all experienced our share of being wounded. It's good to be there for others, but it's also better to try and understand where the injured are coming from... by listening.
I have suffered from the same thing especially when I used to get bullied at school Bullying have drive me crazy couldn't control it until I beat the Holy hell out of the bully Then, I suffered for the rest of the years in grade 8 and 9 but, I moved on because, I relized that this is my time to move on !
I feel like everybody around me hates me, nobody really seeks to ask if i'm okay nor does really notice anything off me, even my own bestfriend couldn't really see that i'm actually struggling, i do believe i have something that's not okay going in me, but nobody really cares anymore about that in this year, at this point i'm just bursting into tears everytime i think a lot about it, i feel like vomiting everytime i have to speak about what i feel, but all i wanted was to be seen atleast one time, i am thinking of commiting it, every hope of my life has gone to waste, i am still 14 and i feel so selfish of thinking about that, i've been feeling like this ever since i was 10, but never really did care about it, everytime i look deeper the heavier i feel in my heart, the heavier my mind gets and at the point i'm not able to walk anymore, seeing that death was my only escape of that. i have believed that, for so long, i have lost myself and the person i am, nobody checked me if i was okay all long, nobody really cared, if you're reading this i'm probally already gone, but i don't want to do it just on my cousin's birthday, since it's today, i'll just be looking forward after that and i'm doing it, i said to myself too much that ''it's too late'' ''you have no chance left'' it sunk so in that i want to be gone already, goodbye
Omg , the not been able to wake up , eat that Silent scream with holding ur head it just the same as what i experience in exam's periods especially and start feeling overwhelmed , tired , not enough, i don't know what i should do nor what i wan , i just wanna stop existing I can't do that anymore
I’m sick and tired of people calling me crazy! All of my life! I see other people acting more abnormal than myself, and most of the ones that tell me I’m f’ed up are those people. Honestly, if I show frustration, anger, joke around, or just walk into a flipping room someone has something negative to say, and I don’t know how to handle it!
Don't listen to them. When they haven't been through it they aren't really able to understand. You don't deserve any of this, ok? Know that you are loved. You truly are. Never give up ok? God bless you! I pray for your healing, peace and I pray for love to fill you in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen! 🙏
This is really rlly sums up my depression i’m always tried and still has sum trouble falling asleep .. sometimes at my boyfriend’s but okay Ight yea totally just tries to stay awake all without just breaking all down …
You are very right! Mental illness oftentimes has a gentic component to them as well. New research seems to point to chromosomes not expressing genes correctly, or different chemical imbalances that affect how well our brains work. The brain is so interesting and complex!
Wait you boiled water without connecting it to the electricity line? (9:50) maybe you should try to connect it next time so it boils so you can enjoy it more ;)
Yes in disturbing mental set up , person is trying to act normal but in their personal from within they not feel normal or relax , in this stage they need rest and relax and no burden of any kind , my personal experience
I have psychotic depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, am a victim of self harm, have high blood pressure and mpgn type 1. I wish i knew how to kill myself, sleep one day and never again wake up, or pay someone else to kill me. Im only alive for the people i love and who love me.. Good luck to all who are struggling, i know what its like, i really do. Just hold on, seek help and remember you are not alone. Good luck to us all
I've never wanted to be alive but the connections and relationships to those I hold dear is what keeps me here, I know what it's like to lose someone not from natural causes and I wouldn't want to put anyone of them through that kind of anguish cause I lost my fight.
I don't know what exactly my problem is! nothing happened with me something tragedic.I had passed my 12th class last yr 2020 after coming back to my hostel I was unable to sleep for 8-9 months n also I felt weak n irritated whole day,but after October I can sleep even I went to bed at 3 am I can sleep within half hr n also I was quite happy too,but now again actually now I don't like to sleep at night n whole day I feel irrited,alone n want to cry,want to talk but no one is here for me,even I live in that colony where my childhood frnds live but about a few months nothing remains same don't know why,how? I really want everyone back❤️
Hey Kaveri, thank you for sharing your experience. I hope you are doing better now and to go through this is human, and I applaud you for bravely speaking about it. I would advise professional help to you as although I can empathise with you I am not equipped as a professional to help. Remember you are not alone and I wish you all the best and strength, and hope you feel better.
I dont know but when I have depression phases, I sort of am very untidy, I don't comb my hair, wear proper dress, clean myself up very well....and suffer from extreme social anhedonia...
I am suffering from it I haven't slept since 3 month. My behavior is going weird day by day , I can't even talk to people, all because of my parents, they made me do bsc when I want to go to pantnagar to persue veterinary course. Please how can I overcome this
Well portrayed, but can anyone tell what's the cure for it? Those who suffer only know how hard it is to deal with the pain every day in every inch of the body and yet there is no physical proof to show how much you're wounded. Can somebody make a video with such dedication upon the cure. What could be of help for those who are on the verge of breaking down every day. Does spiritual enlightenment work or leaving the job does? Does travelling help you come out of it or medications? Can someone tell what can make us feel human again?
I hate today’s society. The way my parents describe their school life, almost everybody was friendly and respectful. Nowadays people shove and grab me just to be funny, but they don’t see or feel the massive pain in my chest. Not only that, but I was physically harmed (kicked, punched, hit) when I was only seven by a hypocrite. Nobody wants to be friends with me, and whenever they get the chance, they bully me on how I deserved the childhood abuse for being loud or annoying. Then when I told them I’m extremely sensitive about that stuff and cried, they ignored me. It almost feels like I’m just not enough.
me when everyone else was thinking thats i’m soo it’s okok but inside i just okay really rlly was gunna going thru through with / w lotta lots sometimes it’s just really rlly soo hardd to gets outta of my boyfriend’s bed or course maybe just my bed and it’s just pretend it’s normal in front of family my emotional 😭…💜🥺😥breakdowns, burnout obsessed , depressed, i just okay really has did overcame over all everything
Maybe she has depression and anxiety but at least she's got her driving licence. I'm too scared to even go to driving school, though I dream of it everyday. And it's not that I'm scared of driving... The funniest part is that public transport also gives me anxiety 😅
Thank you everyone who has bravely spoken about their journey. I really appreciate your honesty. Please remember you are not alone. Through this film I have tried to urge my viewers to seek professional help and their loved ones to support them at such a time. 🙏 There is nothing wrong in taking an effort to heal and don't let society tell you otherwise.
You said seek the professional and asked help from love one
But what can one do if don't have money to pay as fees for professional help and also don't have any loved one?
Amen yea happy mental health awareness month everyone keep pushing don’t look back and continue fight yourself everyday !! You are you your best friend
That's sad
This whole documentary pretty much shows the life I live everyday! As a person with anxiety, PTSD and depression I can say this is accurate
Thank you Lex for acknowledging my humble effort. I am sorry you are living like this everyday and through this film I want to appeal to my viewers to reach out for help, and their loved ones to help them at such a time
Thank you for being so brave and telling us.
Hope you get better soon.

Especially in workplace when we need to act normal and be competent as a normal person. Its very difficult.
It definitely is.

As a psychology student,I am reviewing this short film to look for psychological elements in it as an assignment assignment by our professor....
I don't even remember what normal feels like anymore I have got severe anxiety and panic disorder.,., I was such a cool person before always happy and life has bought me down to this ..,, life doesn't feel good anymore

I am glad things are better for you :) stay strong
Depression is one of the toughest experiences to go through. It takes away a joy from life, convinces that you are worthless and alone. It disrupts sleep and takes away the energy.

Himani, kudos for touching upon an oft-neglected aspect in our daily lives, one which people are now more aware of.
Just a thought here while I watched.. you have touched only upon the symptoms..... so why not touch upon on the reasons also? And maybe towards the end of the film - perhaps also a solution?
Brij Anand thank you uncle :) . Uncle this film is only a depiction of a day in the life of a person going through mental health issues. I purposely didn’t show the reasons for this as everyone’s journey is different. I have left it for the audience , as everyone watching it may have different reasons. Which is why i have left that question unanswered.
Good work Himanee Bhatia...
Thank you so much Shivankar
A powerful reflection of reality.
You have described almost everything in this video about me that I go through at school
I used to not be like this but now I am I want to sleep all the time. Why is this me?❤😢
Things will get better. Even if it's a dark tunnel there's always light at the end of it. ❤️
Life will throw a lot of shit at us. Given that's inevitable, what else is certain is the fact our voices, our actions, our surroundings... can most definitely have made a bright light out of. Everyone's situation is different. We've all had our own point of view on given matters: trauma, negligence, stress, responsibility, education, family, beliefs, etc. Even when I hear others say "I understand what you're going through", I'm like "Yeah, I find that hard to believe." We've all experienced our share of being wounded. It's good to be there for others, but it's also better to try and understand where the injured are coming from... by listening.
I have suffered from the same thing especially when I used to get bullied at school
Bullying have drive me crazy couldn't control it until I beat the Holy hell out of the bully
Then, I suffered for the rest of the years in grade 8 and 9 but, I moved on because, I relized that this is my time to move on !
I love this so much! ❤️
Thank you Chloe ❤️

I feel like everybody around me hates me, nobody really seeks to ask if i'm okay nor does really notice anything off me, even my own bestfriend couldn't really see that i'm actually struggling, i do believe i have something that's not okay going in me, but nobody really cares anymore about that in this year, at this point i'm just bursting into tears everytime i think a lot about it, i feel like vomiting everytime i have to speak about what i feel, but all i wanted was to be seen atleast one time, i am thinking of commiting it, every hope of my life has gone to waste, i am still 14 and i feel so selfish of thinking about that, i've been feeling like this ever since i was 10, but never really did care about it, everytime i look deeper the heavier i feel in my heart, the heavier my mind gets and at the point i'm not able to walk anymore, seeing that death was my only escape of that. i have believed that, for so long, i have lost myself and the person i am, nobody checked me if i was okay all long, nobody really cared, if you're reading this i'm probally already gone, but i don't want to do it just on my cousin's birthday, since it's today, i'll just be looking forward after that and i'm doing it, i said to myself too much that ''it's too late'' ''you have no chance left'' it sunk so in that i want to be gone already, goodbye
Omg , the not been able to wake up , eat that Silent scream with holding ur head it just the same as what i experience in exam's periods especially and start feeling overwhelmed , tired , not enough, i don't know what i should do nor what i wan , i just wanna stop existing I can't do that anymore
Feeling it rn
Amazing 💫
Thank you : )
I’m sick and tired of people calling me crazy! All of my life! I see other people acting more abnormal than myself, and most of the ones that tell me I’m f’ed up are those people. Honestly, if I show frustration, anger, joke around, or just walk into a flipping room someone has something negative to say, and I don’t know how to handle it!
Don't listen to them. When they haven't been through it they aren't really able to understand. You don't deserve any of this, ok? Know that you are loved. You truly are. Never give up ok? God bless you! I pray for your healing, peace and I pray for love to fill you in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen! 🙏
I'm sorry for your experience... people don't understand how hard it is
This is sooo real
I’m starting to get closer to the edge…
Amaaaazing
Thanks mom!
this is so powerful
Thank you so much
This is really rlly sums up my depression i’m always tried and still has sum trouble falling asleep .. sometimes at my boyfriend’s but okay Ight yea totally just tries to stay awake all without just breaking all down …
Act normal..._.😎😎😎
Iam going through with the same as shown in video past few years😢
Mental illness..is not easy to judge..today's lifestyle work preasure , stress..less sleep..slowly slowly lead to mental illness..
3ds Max Maximum i agree. And it is integral we all start talking about it as it is health at the end of the day.
You are very right!
Mental illness oftentimes has a gentic component to them as well. New research seems to point to chromosomes not expressing genes correctly, or different chemical imbalances that affect how well our brains work. The brain is so interesting and complex!
Bravo 💖💖💖💖💖
Wait you boiled water without connecting it to the electricity line? (9:50) maybe you should try to connect it next time so it boils so you can enjoy it more ;)
permission to used this as intro in our advocacy video please
Definitely, if it helps someone why not :)
breathe. act normal.
Omg, the alarm in the beginning, I just found yourself wanting to throw it in a mirror
Gjb 👌👏
Yes in disturbing mental set up , person is trying to act normal but in their personal from within they not feel normal or relax , in this stage they need rest and relax and no burden of any kind , my personal experience
Hey just a question , What editing app did you use ?
Hey Samantha, it was edited by a filmmaker friend of mine professionally . However in the films that I edit myself I use I movie
Can you tell me what is the main medical condition in this short film...
In my classes, I struggle so much to act normal. But it feels like something is beating my mind😢 I am always so scared
I have psychotic depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, am a victim of self harm, have high blood pressure and mpgn type 1. I wish i knew how to kill myself, sleep one day and never again wake up, or pay someone else to kill me. Im only alive for the people i love and who love me.. Good luck to all who are struggling, i know what its like, i really do. Just hold on, seek help and remember you are not alone. Good luck to us all
I've never wanted to be alive but the connections and relationships to those I hold dear is what keeps me here, I know what it's like to lose someone not from natural causes and I wouldn't want to put anyone of them through that kind of anguish cause I lost my fight.
I don't know what exactly my problem is! nothing happened with me something tragedic.I had passed my 12th class last yr 2020 after coming back to my hostel I was unable to sleep for 8-9 months n also I felt weak n irritated whole day,but after October I can sleep even I went to bed at 3 am I can sleep within half hr n also I was quite happy too,but now again actually now I don't like to sleep at night n whole day I feel irrited,alone n want to cry,want to talk but no one is here for me,even I live in that colony where my childhood frnds live but about a few months nothing remains same don't know why,how? I really want everyone back❤️
Hiii
Hey Kaveri, thank you for sharing your experience. I hope you are doing better now and to go through this is human, and I applaud you for bravely speaking about it. I would advise professional help to you as although I can empathise with you I am not equipped as a professional to help. Remember you are not alone and I wish you all the best and strength, and hope you feel better.
@@himaneebhatia9592 Thank you❤️
I am having same problem I can't concentrate on studies and my exams are in September. I haven't slept since 3 months
And thats day for day...
I dont know but when I have depression phases, I sort of am very untidy, I don't comb my hair, wear proper dress, clean myself up very well....and suffer from extreme social anhedonia...
I just really feel that’s i’m soo lonely 😩🥺😥sometimes i just okay really soo has conversations.
I understand that helplessness
💯
Thank you
A ture story
Life is all memory
I am suffering from it I haven't slept since 3 month. My behavior is going weird day by day , I can't even talk to people, all because of my parents, they made me do bsc when I want to go to pantnagar to persue veterinary course. Please how can I overcome this
Don't loose hope.
Relate able
Very nice 👌👌👌
Thank you so much
am also going thru same condition whts the solution
Well portrayed, but can anyone tell what's the cure for it? Those who suffer only know how hard it is to deal with the pain every day in every inch of the body and yet there is no physical proof to show how much you're wounded. Can somebody make a video with such dedication upon the cure. What could be of help for those who are on the verge of breaking down every day. Does spiritual enlightenment work or leaving the job does? Does travelling help you come out of it or medications? Can someone tell what can make us feel human again?
Depression is treated with medication and therapy. There are a lot of self-help resources available, however it is best to seek advice of a doctor.
Why there is no sound?
What does she put in her cup in the kitchen at night. I feel like I missed something.
I'm going through this since last 5years
So whats it like to be "normal" ? I cant remember
permission to use the intro for our video, thank u in advance
I hate today’s society. The way my parents describe their school life, almost everybody was friendly and respectful. Nowadays people shove and grab me just to be funny, but they don’t see or feel the massive pain in my chest. Not only that, but I was physically harmed (kicked, punched, hit) when I was only seven by a hypocrite. Nobody wants to be friends with me, and whenever they get the chance, they bully me on how I deserved the childhood abuse for being loud or annoying. Then when I told them I’m extremely sensitive about that stuff and cried, they ignored me. It almost feels like I’m just not enough.
me when everyone else was thinking thats i’m soo it’s okok but inside i just okay really rlly was gunna going thru through with / w lotta lots sometimes it’s just really rlly soo hardd to gets outta of my boyfriend’s bed or course maybe just my bed and it’s just pretend it’s normal in front of family my emotional 😭…💜🥺😥breakdowns, burnout obsessed , depressed, i just okay really has did overcame over all everything
It is very hard to talk about depression...
Everyone has Problems sometimes
I can't even eat when am around people... even typing on my PC is a big challenge 😢
I still have some bipolar disorder and eating disorder
Maybe she has depression and anxiety but at least she's got her driving licence. I'm too scared to even go to driving school, though I dream of it everyday. And it's not that I'm scared of driving... The funniest part is that public transport also gives me anxiety 😅
Mujhse ab or nhi ho rha bss bohot hogya
Mujhe nhi pta m yha kyu comment kr rhi hu mujhe kuch nhi pta 😭
Yea but what's normal?😯
I guess that's another video

This is so uncomfortable to watch because it is painfully accurate..
This is me 😞😔
Never snap at your employees.
Done well Himanee
Thank you so much
