YOUR MENTAL HEALTH COMES FIRST.
WE WILL ALWAYS BE HERE!
i comment on videos once every blue moon. As I come down to think of something to say, I found that it was already here waiting for me. Job well done Shamus
Regrettably whilst we will always be here, that we only makes up a small portion of the number of views that they get. Fortunately there's enough persistence that he can afford to put less into this for a while.
He must do the forbidden content
I wont. I think i can only stay subscribed for the next 50 years max or till RUclips shut down, which ever comes first
This is true
Kyle: suffering from success.
Seriously though your mental health comes first.
It's why Goal setting and why those goals are important
Purposelessness is a plague and a difficult one to cure sadly
No goo e goes unpunished.
I am baffled that Door Monster isn’t more popular than it is. This channel deserves so much for attention than it gets. The artistic integrity that you have is refreshing since it’s better than most RUclips channels and film production studios
It's very much in the tradition of other zero-budget film-students-with-sticks comedy series on RUclips (freddiew, TomSka, etc), but the difference is that while Freddie and co tended to focus on special effects in their heyday, Door Monster tends to emphasize really solid writing instead.
And in that department... well, frankly, Kyle and the rest are just funnier than any other comedy sketch group on RUclips. Smosh at their best pales in comparison (okay, not saying much, but...)
People should try to get the word out about this channel
Get MrBeast on this shit
Agree 100%, they're great at creating that "just some friends making short films" vibe, and do so in a way that makes us as the audience feel like we're along for the ride. I think refreshing is the perfect word!
I'm lucky I found them via the civ videos, I've loved literally every video they have
I've type and erased a dozen bits of wisdom and advice over the past 20 minutes when really I should just say, 'I hope you find what you are missing' and let you know I really enjoy your content.
Thank you :) I'm glad to know you enjoy it, and I hope I continue to maintain that standard.
@@DoorMonster Nothing you could do could make us lose hope in you guys. We're with you till the end.
^I concure
@@Dragonspirit223 Much agree
Hope you get better.
I've actually been there and it was, weird.. I Wanted to do stuff, and be happy, but I felt, bad.. No clear reason why, it just, was.
So good luck.
It really sucks. You feel motivated but something is giving you reasons to not be. So weird.
But good to know you are feeling better!
Man I feel this so much
I get this way so often. It sucks.
Happened once, feels really weird, you know that you have to/want to do things but you just lack the motivation to actually do so
I feel this all the time, mainly in video games but that's really all I do most of the time honestly....
"And then what? Die... eventually?
I ended up getting out of that one by doing weekly videos on this channel."
Reading this makes it sound like he became immortal by doing weekly videos
"Local man achieves immortality and you won't believe how!"
This is exactly correct.
@@ant9944 It made me very happy when he juxtaposed those two sentences.
You know, I would feel as though the inevitable result of a weekly production schedule is the hastening of one’s demise, but 😂
he wept, for there were no more worlds to conquer
In summary:
"And now for something completely different!"
Looking forward to it.
This might not mean much coming from an internet stranger, but I'm so proud of Door Monster. Hands down one of my top favorite youtube channels for the awesome hilarious sketches, the great community, and the wonderful people behind the videos.
Also good for Alison and good luck to her for pursuing law! Even if/when Door Monster slowly pivots away to different things and the people behind them move on, I'll still be cheering you all on.
I'm going through depression myself, so don't stress too much about this. Take a break and refocus yourself on getting better. Your mental health > Subpar videos. Life happens, don't stress over it. We, as subscribers, love you and the Door Monster team, even more than the channel.
Do what you love, not what you think you want.
Stay awesome!
Heck, His mental health > amazing videos
Those videos are orginal and amazing ok! Good luck about the other stuff aswell.
What a backhanded compliment? Subpar videos?
Thanks for keeping us in the loop! We still love you guys, take whatever time you need
It seems like you have a pretty good handle on why you get depressed and how you should go about solving the problems. That's a good start. You're a smart guy. It makes sense you get depressed when you subconsciously realize you're not challenged enough.
Depression may not seem so bad to you, but it is always a huge deal! Saying it's not a huge deal is a part of the depression. Get well dude.
Take your time. You are depressed , you don't have the energy to do work. That's ok. Take a break as long as you need and don't come back until you feel refreshed.
Take care of yourself man. Though I miss your videos, but I can wait :)
I was extremely depressed for several months. I almost didn’t make it.
What helped me was taking a trip to somewhere I’ve always wanted to go. In my case it was the Smithsonian Museums in Washington, D.C. Being able relax to and enjoy it really helped. This might not help you, but it helped me. Also time. Time helped.
I didn’t have any support from my family or friends, so if I could do it by myself you can definitely do it with help from other people. You can do this!
It really sucks when people that are the closest to you can't conceive depression and/or don't support someone going through depression.
But it is very comforting to know that you went through it safely despite hardships. No, let's be fair, it is actually pretty hopeful!
Glad you're well, whomever you may be.
kyle: i have depression
12 year old kid on youtube: fIrSt
@@MichaeLJPS is this meant to be funny
1st
Holy shit I’m 666th like
V3n0m okay
Hey love, just remember that it is absolutely okay to continue to evolve. I also know both depression AND the yawning pit of “Now what?” Your audience (the core of it) has been changed by you and will love you no matter what.
So if it helps, take a moment to absorb “what you have accomplished,” and enjoy it! The next thing will come... and might not even be on RUclips 😉
It's hard to be creative when you're dealing with a rough patch. Just keep on going, the channel will always be here when you come back. We've gotten so much free content for so long, and you have focused so hard on providing it for us (tired Kyle memes highly relevant). Honestly man, after 5 years, I reckon it's okay to take a breather right now. Good luck
I watched your videos when I had depression, now I don't and that is in part thanks to you. Keep up the good work! Or maybe take a break, looks you need it.
I'm glad to know I could help : )
I've been fighting suicidal depression since I was around 8 or so. I'm 23 now. I truly do not wish it on anybody.
I hope you start feeling better soon.
I love you and your channel. Thank you.
Kyle, do you want a hug?
You know we're here for you, right?
And don't worry. Whatever comes next, we'll be watching.
If those last 17 sketches are the end- So long and thanks for all the fish! ^_^
THEY'D BETTER NOT BE
toxiclunch yea I was confused on that
You know it’s at times like this, when I’m trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space that I really wish I’d listened to what my mother told me when I was young.
Kramer 42 what did she tell you?
I salute you Douglas Adams you comic genius
We love you! You, Kyle personally, and all of the Door Monster team!
How you smile when you speak about new sketches you wrote - that is heartwarming.
Take care of yourself. If you were dead, there would be no sketches or any other content from you and that would be disheartening.
Also, I'm looking forward to your videos on writing. I love your humor and being funny is not what I'm good at in my writing. I know that advice from you will help.
If your heart's not in your work, it won't be good work.
Normally I wouldn't say "just do what you want," but in your case I'll make an exception.
Its ok to achieve a goal too early and have an existential crisis shortly after. Saitama from One Punch Man has that too.
It is hard to stay on the "Right" path when you have no destination in mind.
This is like a sand mandala. Once it is perfect it has to be swept away. We love DM but if you need to seek another thing to perfect we love you more than just your work.
But also keep doing sketches pls
Said this during your stream but its worth repeating and elaborating on.
As much as its strange because none of us know you personally, a large portion of us really care about you and the rest of the team. Personally your content has helped me through some shit ive been dealing with by just giving me a distraction for a few minutes and helping cheer my up slightly. And I know I'm not the only one with that experience.
If you are going through a rough patch, no matter what caused it, that is okay. Focus on your health and getting better, don't stress about the channel or sketches or anything. We can wait, and will do so, focus on yourself and if it helps try to plan out what you want to do. Whatever helps you through it.
Stay strong Kyle, we believe in you ❤
I have been there too, many times, unfortunately. It’s awesome that so many of your fans are supportive and more than anything it’s fantastic that you are willing to talk about it openly. It is the most wide-spread problem in the US that goes underreported by 75% + of sufferers.
It doesn’t seem possible that you are living the same life when you remember you used to work 14 hours a day and actually create awesome videos while courting your now-wife, writing Skyvault, engaging the community and countless other things ... and now done days it probably seems an insurmountable obstacle to renew your driver’s license.
As long as you know the “classic” advice of - “stop being a wus and just toughen up” is a load of bull shit, and it’s a real thing and getting help is not only smart, but takes toughness and courage, you will be okay.
Loved your work and respected your talent since I first found your channel a couple years ago, but now I deeply admire and respect you as person for persevering and being open and honest.
Aw dammit ... now I feel guilty about not supporting Door Monster on Patreon ... okay, off I go to Patreon 😁.
Few years ago I got depression, but I found your channel and it was a part of positive force that eventually helped me to get better
I will always be thankful. Good luck to you.
That line about school being like a video game wrecked me on an emotional level
Dude it fits so well
I felt so called out.
I think you have some of the best content on here and have always been quick to share it with others. Depression really sucks and that sense of floating without purpose is unbearable. I'm glad you could share this with us (lord knows most channels don't bother communicating behind the scenes problems) and I hope you find something to keep you going whether that's on this platform or beyond. I will happily watch anything you put out, and I think you have shown the world your limitless potential. Good luck!
I've learned the hard way that one of the most important thing against depression is talking about it, so...yeah, kudos for making that video.
It's so great that you have the courage to just up and say what you are struggling with. So many people aren't willing to recognize what they are going through.
Take care of yourself. Your mental health is much more important than the whims of the uncultured masses of youtube.
We are here because we love you guys, and we are rooting for you every step of the way.
Saw the 3AM stream, still watching to support you. I believe in you!
Hey thanks for checking in! I'm sure you will find new direction soon and get out of this slump but remember between you and the channel you should always come first!
Take care of yourself :)
*Offers hugs for you and anyone else that needs it* Mental health is more important than almost anything else in life, take care of you, wishing you the best of luck.
Edit: also, of course we'll enjoy the sketches, its DoorMonster, its always good.
You'll figure it out. I have faith and honestly I'm subscribed to JonTron so getting regular content is not a great priority. All you peeps from this channel, you're all good people. Much love.
I remain.
We love you mate! And we will support everything you guys are planning to make, besides, It would be really cool to see all of those behind the scenes shots but more with the explanation as to how you made them, I think that was an awesome Idea!
Most people dont know what to do in life, and I'm glad you mostly have found a way though life.
Get well my dude.
Tip: if you love your job, you will never work a day in your life.
If you love your job you will never have a vacation in your life, but the job won't stress you out.
This is valid as well.
Eh. I feel like a job you like is a perfect way to ruin a hobby in a couple of months.
That's incorrect. You could love your job but it could still require a lot of hard work to do. Like... Someone could love being a doctor and helping people but the long hours and high-focus take a lot of effort to push through. It's hard work despite the enjoyment
It's just an expression.
Dont gotta drag it down.
Me: ah, a new Door Monster video, what fun awaits. (Sees title) This is gonna get heavy.
Edit: This is probably the most likes i've ever gotten. Thanks.
This is where the fun -begins- ends.
At least he knows that he's struggling with and that he can get better. It's definitely sad, but I think we can be patient for his sake
Sorry to hear it's been tough, but I love you guys and your sketches never fail to make me smile. If you need some time to ensure you can smile, I can't blame you.
Your mental health is more important, as so many others have said. I'll be here when you come back.
Man I would love a series to show how to make content on a low budget, it sounds really fun
I always feel good watching DoorMonster. I really appreciate Kyle and the Krew. Like for all the work they do, sure, but also just them being themselves. Their personalities, friendship, game commentary, and general vibes just make me feel good, which I really need sometimes.
I realize this is a strange time to express my gratitude, considering the title, but here we are
I hate to say it, but what you are going through is very normal.
I'm actually at a similar place in part of my life right now. I'm really feeling the diminishing returns and want to start fresh on something I'll get more out of.
I've had my depression battles. It always sucks. Take care of yourself, man. We'll be here when you're ready.
Also, those online classes you were talking about sound really cool! I've been trying to get into writing myself, and love to see how you do it!
I've battled depression off and on for about fifteen years. My GPA from school looks like a roller coaster because of it. When things work, I'm awesome -- I have a PhD -- but after I finished and the way the academic job market is in the US there's nothing stable and little routine. And that basically gives a crack for depression to get through. So I get where you're coming from. All I can say is that from my experience all you can do is pick yourself up, try to figure out what the next thing will be, and try making it happen. And it sounds like you mostly know this. So as long as you realize that depression is happening and you can still think about how to get out of it the rest is just time.
Anyway, this is useless advice from someone on RUclips, but good luck, man. I'll be thinking of you.
Well said, and also,
I approve of the explosion analogies, we need more of them.
I'm watching thir from a psych ward. I feel the depression. Hope it gets better for you.
Hey my dude, can't wait for the sketches, or rather I can. Take your time and do it your way.
Take as much time off as you need Kyle! Priority number one is always to enjoy what you do and be there for the people you care about. When you’re ready, tutorial content sounds like a great idea! Your sketches are always hilarious, and it would be great to have a tutorial on comedic writing. :D
Like the behind the scenes idea, always interesting- especially since you're essentially a "guerrilla" content creator
I actually stopped and thought for a moment about the "guerilla" part and I can confidently say that that is the best description of these types of channels 👍
I relate to so much of this. Kyle's description of depression, the loss of direction after school/college, struggling to motivate yourself after achieving goals, trying to find new goals, trying to regain your enthusiasm, even feeling like you shouldn't be depressed because your problems sound 'dumb' (they're not), all of it. Door Monster is one of my favourite channels because a) it's content is frickin' hilarious and b) the people involved are so cool and relatable. Whatever you wanna do, Kyle, whether that's creating new, different content, taking a break, stopping altogether or anything else, I support it. Thank you for making and sharing so much great content (watching 'Use the Doors', 'Yellow Light' or any of your Civ videos always cheers me up) and for caring about and interacting with your community. The most important thing is for you to look after yourself and find and do what makes you happy. To that end I wish you all the best now and in the future.
(In retrospect, that last line kinda sounded like a goodbye, but just so you know, I'm totally still watching any and all of your future updates)
I mean Behind the Door or Opening the Door feels like a good name for the bts stuff
I'm sorry man. I had some depression and anxiety a few weeks back, and it wasn't fun. I hope you get better. Remember you have resources and friends to help.
I swear, the second you started to say "and how colouring scenes changes the feel of them", f.lux kicked in to transition the screen to a better night time color. I actually thought you had given the video a warmer hue for demonstration.
I’d love to see tutorials on how you guys make your movies, but do whatever feels best for you, your friends and most of all your mental health.
I wish you a lot of luck with your plans for the future and I am verry exited to see what you guys want to share with us in the next weeks.
Also I hope that you find your new rhythm in your live and take your time to find your energy and joy again.
Thank you for all the amazing videos! Best wishes and greetings from Europa! :)
Would love to hear your process of writing! Not only because you love it and you're passionate about it, but because I personally think thats an area I need to improve in most... and because I'm also trying to create high quality, low budget films I feel like you have a lot of knowledge to offer younger filmmakers! You have to do what's best for you, and we'll all stand behind that!
Thank you for this video from a depressed college grad
This look at your process really makes me appreciate how genuine your content is. This whole channel is a joy and I love all you guys! Take all the time you need, you definitely deserve it!
I feel you man, hope you feel better soon. PS. Love the channel!
I have faced similar problems in my own creative journey. Take the time you need to find the best new way forward for yourself. Your community is here for you.
Depression happens, I went through a bit of it a while back, lost 9 lbs from minimal eating and drinking.
Gotta eat big to get big. I eat 4300 calories a day so i can get big and juicy. What you cant eat 12 meals a day?, I can eat 12 times a day.
fuckin ay kyle...your videos always brighten my day and helped me through some tough moments as well. if nothing else i’m still getting a ton of enjoyment from each new video! i hope you are able to find your own purpose in life
So you feel like you're too good at what you're doing and want to push on to something more challenging? Good for you! Love your work, looking forward to what's next.
Right there with you. A lack of direction or a shift with no plan hurts.
The how to series sounds really fun, I'm looking forward to it because I love your work. that's uh, that's all I got ta say...
Your channel has helped me when I'm dealing with depression. Your art and your humor are inspiring. Wishing you all the best.
Reason #1 I'm not going outside: there is this door monster video about Depression and Dumb Problems
I like the idea of a behind-the-scenes series. One of my favorite things about you guys is that you are consistently professional and high-quality, but without hugely expensive equipment or lofty egos. You've inspired me to push myself beyond what I thought I could do, and I would love to learn more about your process.
Good luck Kyle
Good luck man we all have our ups and downs and I hope you can get through this bro I’ll be here to support you! You’ve been a huge inspiration to my life and I hope that you can continue to be that we’re all rooting for you here good luck
Thank you, I really appreciate that : )
I know what you mean, I'm not feeling great either man. All we can do is hang in there or get help
There are many reasons in life for us to get some pretty bad anxiety crisis or something like that.
But it is good to remember, as cliché as it may be, that there is always something, as trivial as it may be, that really needs us, one way or another.
Im not going to give you my life story...but i never expected to make my 21st birthday. Never forget the people around you. Even if they cant understand, or even if they do, never forget or underestimate how much they NEED you and the lessons you teach. And hey things may not go the way you expect, i just turned 30 and im through the other side. You can beat it. If you cant beat it alone get help. The key to it more than anything ive found is to have hope. even in the smallest of things, and then you take one small step at a time and work your way up.
My personal opinion on most situations, including this one, is "you do you"; you take the channel in whatever direction you want, at exactly the pace that's best for you. I have the utmost confidence that the decisions you make for the channel will the best decisions possible. Additionally, a Door Monster tutorial series on video making, editing, etc., sounds like a marvellous idea.
Take your time man, we'll be here when you're better.
As I'm watching this I'm scraping myself out of a several months long depression problem. I didn't fall into it for identical reasons but they're similar enough to feel empathic. I hope we pull through.
You have a rather good knack for comedy, keep up the good work
I've suffered from it my whole life. Mental health is something to address as soon as possible if you can. Never apologize for dealing with mental health. Good luck.
Oh no, it's not a 45 minute video.
We are doomed.
Thank you, Kyle. For all your dedication and creativity and artistry. You have made wonderful things that brought joy to a lot of people. You yourself have become the inspirational figure the Freddie Wong was to you all those years ago. We all wish the very best for you and your team whatever it is you decide to do next.
Thank you, that really means a lot.
hope you get better soon, cause I really love your video's and have always been really exited every time i saw an upload from you!
I like that you are so real with us... it's a really big inspiration, and it gives me a lot of hope. Take care of yourself mate!
So you've got a saitama problem.
Also those alt video ideas sound freaking awesome.
I'm a bit late to the Door Monster Train, but you're one of my favorite channels on RUclips. Geeky humor, the inside jokes, videos on all my favorite games. It's been awesome! As long as you don't stop the sketches I'll be happy with whatever you want to throw out there. If you stop the sketches I will be less happy.
Good luck with law school!! You'll BOTH need it...
Thank you for sharing. It’s really big that you shared. It means a great deal that you opened up. I know it’s not easy to deal with let alone share. I know how you feel as a fellow sufferer. Thank you for sharing.
Hang in there Kyle. Me and the gang are rooting for you.
The closest I can relate to your problem is when I complete a game and feel like I have nothing else to do in it besides the implausible like world record speed runs, which in your case would be going viral, lol.
Good luck in your endeavors. You're in the right track. Focus on something else for a while, experience new things, learn new things.
Heck, I'll help. I'll share their videos to everywhere! ^*'_'*^
Love you door monster
Kyle: Is very strange. I have been in the struggling business so long, now that it's over, I don't know what to do with the rest of my life.
The Hobo: Have you ever considered piracy? You'd make a wonderful Dread Pirate Roberts.
In all seriousness though do what you want to do, even if it's something completely different. And take the time for your self and those that you love, it's about all we got.
Not gonna lie, totally down for being the next Dread Pirate Roberts if the opportunity arises.
If you need a complete random stranger to talk I got you. I've been watching since the old flash stuff so I'm glad to give back
Sorry to hear that Depression sucks but we all understand as well. I have Chronic Depression so I hear ya. Huge Hugs to you keep fighting and never give up 😊
Pls just do what you need to do to get better, even if it means less frequent videos, i really hope you feel better
Just discovered your channel not too long ago, you guys are truly a diamond in the rough. Refreshingly honest, genuinely funny, and bold enough to even poke fun at yourselves. IMHO, do what you need to do to find that sense of "fulfillment." On this side of the camera, one of the best aspects of your content is how much fun you guys are having when you make it. It really does translate.
One thing is certain tho, unless you do something different, nothing will change. Best of luck!
You should take up a new hobby
like Capybara breeding.
Playing an instrument seems nice maybe
Or actually i just looked capybara up and that is a better idea holy shit theyre cute
A month, 3 months, a year, 3 years. I'll still be here. I can't tell you how much I've learned watching your videos, specifically the VFX breakdowns you did a while back. They were super helpful for learning how to do special effects and I would not be half as good at editing today without them.
I just like your style of humor so if the new content, whatever it may be, is funny I’ll stick around.
Kyle, I have so much respect for you and Allison and everyone on your team. And actually this video today was exactly what I needed to reassess my own trajectory and see the light at the end of my directional funk. So thanks
