Such a good episode tho
thankyou for this episdoe
yes
Funny that you call us Goodhumans. In german this word is a curse word.
Good video
"You're not thin enough." Wow really top notch thing to say to someone with an eating disorder.
Except they didn't have an eating disorder in the therapist eyes
A Duck they did. The therapist was just incompetent
I literally had my therapist say that to me before. Really sucked. But she still helped me work through it, she just didn't use the word "disorder" when describing it
can someone in the mental health field confirm if this is true for me? I heard that people need to have a certain BMI/weight in order to be officially diagnosed with an eating disorder. I don't know if it's true though
BrendaFOBRocks it isnt true, weight doesn’t determine an eating disorder, it’s the behaviors, patterns, and all the thoughts that go with it. a lot of people don’t know that and think that only extremely thin people or extremely overweight people can struggle with eating disorders but the weight really doesn’t determine it. any person of any size and weight can have an eating disorder
It genuinely breaks my heart when people are mean and ignorant towards people with mental illnesses because it’s not as obvious as physical ones.
Amina M even if you don’t have a illness but you act a certain different way you should still be respected
Had a friend who was the most depressed person I ever met. A few assholes really didn’t like him because his illness prevented him from functioning normally
Inebriatd
Obviously the point was being respected means being treated like a human being instead of being made to feel subhuman, which often happens with people who struggle with mental illness.
I have a mental illness that brought me physical pain (back and stomach pain for years just to say two) and a lot of people thought i was just making that up. So i get what you are talking about...
I'm lucky to have found the right doctor and the right medication to feel better
We all have a mental illness
The worst part is when you have multiple mental illnesses that all feed off of another and just create an endless cycle that you don't know how to break out of. I'm still trying to figure out how
I completely relate I'm sorry ☹
I feel you...but because they add to each other means that if you improve and work on it you can feel more burden off, at least that's how I try to see it
Me too....but I would advice u to strictly practice what ur doctor suggested...bcz that's what I am doing
I agree😔
For me that would be social anxiety, panic attacks, and depression usually follows...
@@komradson7357 Similar for me. Depression, anxiety and social phobia. The social stuff makes it hard to go outside but staying inside just feeds the depression but then the anxiety makes it difficult to try and change anything :(
“Do all people with OCD think the same?” It would be very good to try to explain OCD more than just “the organization disease”
yes and go into what intrusive thoughts really are, people only think of the physical stuff and not always the mental
@@jinkieez so true! there needs to be a reminder that OCD is not just the way it's portrayed in the movies
Yes. My brother has OCD and it physically pains me when I hear people say, "I'm so OCD" because they like to write with color-coded pens or they like to keep their rooms/desks organized. My brother once stood for almost 20 minutes clicking his bedroom light on and off because it "didn't sound right" the first time he clicked it off. He knew while it was happening that his line of thinking was irrational but he couldn't stop it from happening. His clicking lights on and off is a compulsion he has to deal with on a daily basis. OCD is sooooo much more than a hang up about "organization" and I wish more NT people understood this.
@@noraeable It is always good to remind the person with OCD not to comply with certain compulsive thoughts because sometimes the person with OCD doesn't realize that certain thoughts are compulsive and thinks that it's the "normal"
@@noraeable I have ocd but mine is overwashing my hands all the time because I feel like I didn't wash it right or I didn't close the tap properly and I strongly believe my tap is dirty/contaminated. Another huge compulsion is my dermatillomania, which revolves around me picking my skin for hours a day because I want it to look more smooth, causing my skin to lesions/scarring. I have done this since i was 6 but I am managing :// I am currently on sedatives but it still does not completely rid of my ocd compulsions
“if i didn’t have my disorder, i wouldn’t be who i am, but i’m okay with that because life is more than just me”
very powerful statement
seven as a letter I agree
It shows a great ability to look outside himself and have consideration for the impact on others, but my heart broke for him because everyone has worth and his just seemed broken down, especially since he alluded to his family thinking he was "defective."
seven as a letter indeed
If what you have has hurt other people how do you live with who it made you.
I never buy the whole “it made me who I am” because if you had turned out differently, that doesn’t necessarily mean you’d be a worse person. There’s no one way someone needs turn out.
When she said, “Some of us wake up everyday, wishing to god that they can put a smile on their face and it actually mean something.” That hit HARD.
Bruh. No one said life was easy. NO ONE. Even celebrities have depression. But only the weak will hurt themselves or QUIT life. The strong will fight through the problems.
They live in a first world country with clothes and food why aren't they grateful for that theyre entitled and feel a missing meaning to life without religion that tells us to feel grateful for every moment
@@great10toes40 exactly sir
@Kayte Prush it was a motivational quote not a statement
@Kayte Prush so? do you want me to call them strong? Oh so you're saying they aren't weak?
i wish people would understand that getting a diagnosis is a privilege because a lot of people (including me) don't have the money or opportunity to see a professional and get diagnosed
go cry about it
@Lemickey @lucy gomez - woooow you two are disgusting
@@lking8468 It´s not a human right. For starters, stop portraying yourself as a victim. That helps a lot
@@bitchracula3395 that's not expected from someone who have a thinking brain you're such a shame
it should be a human right! in our country its in our health care so i am really lucky
The "I trust medical professionals" hit me cause a few months back when I attempted suicide and landed in a hospital a nurse told me I shouldn't have seeked out help (I said goodbye to a friend after swallowing a bottle of pills so she called an ambulance) and that if I wanted to die then why even bother (them), should've just done it.
It remains the most painful thing anyone has ever said to me.
signed, Jordan I know it’s going to sound silly, but please don’t let that get to you. They can be ruthless when I was a kid there were multiple occasions where I would call the ambulance for my mother and they would take hours to come and then when we get there they would tell me as a child that I shouldn’t have called and that they would rather be helping people who actually want to live. They would literally say that I should have left her if that’s what she wanted. I honestly believe that it is ignorance and a lack of understanding of mental health since their so used to dealing with physical issues and emergencies. I don’t usually speak about these things, but trust me I don’t truly think they know what they are saying and how much it actually hurts, it left me traumatized as a child hearing them say that. I try not to dwell on those negatives haven’t thought about it in heard and this just struck a cord and had to comment. Anyway wishing you well, stay strong❤️
@@megank3900 oh my gosh I didn't think someone else experienced something like that, everyone I see always has wonderful interactions with medical staff. I'm sorry this happened to you, sending love ❤️ Yeah I also think it's ignorance, I can just hope the situation changes for the better in the future
I'm sorry you went through that. If you have any of her information you should report that nurse. What she did is extremely unethical and is endangering the lives of patients. I'm sure it breaks the hospital's code of conduct. She should be fired and barred from practicing.
@@Trent_-jl8xt I don't even know her name, she walked up to my bed when I was being admitted, filling some form, I was half awake from the pills and she just started talking how I was just bothering everyone, basically that I should just decide and not first swallow pills then call for help. I can't report bc I have no evidence and they would easily disregard it seeing how I just took a bunch of pills. I wrote my story in opinions on google on that hospital and I keep getting notifs that a few thousand people saw it. So I guess that has to be enough to make peace with it.
I am so sorry, your comment is making me cry. You didn’t and don’t deserve that. I’m sorry.
“You’re not thin enough” are you kidding me... that therapist needs to reevaluate the way she speaks to people who struggle with eating disorders that makes me so angry
Id like to think about it from the other side. As therapist, making a diagnosis is a big responsibility, and while i dont know the details of the story, if i was a therapist id have to be 100% certain before making a diagnosis.
Marko Milojković I agree that you should think carefully before making a diagnosis however what I said was the therapist should re-evaluate how they spoke to a person struggling with an eating disorder I should have generalized this to anyone struggling with their mental health
mm weight is just a side effect of eating disorders , just because someone doesn’t reach the required weight to be diagnosed doesn’t mean they don’t have it. Most of the time when people say that, they make others feel invalid and want to even continue with their eating disorder habits in order to somehow feel valid about their illness.
Im not implying she has to be thin, Just looking at it from another perspective, and understanding the mistake. And a side note: my comment is in the wrong place, sorry for that.
Ksenija Mcfadden yah that’s just anorexia where one is under weight but that’s not nine eating or bulimia disorder
“My parents were convinced i was defective” fuckkkk im gonna cry
we feel, i think all of us, defective, broken, not fit for this world. I'm so glad he voiced that.
My slow and forgetful mind has me feeling worthless sometimes...
😔
@@justmai2476 I don't though. I'm perfect.
Yh
Parents b like u defective
Anyone nah g I have your genes mic drop
I don't have mental disorder this vedio was very good tho and he almost made me cry they all seemed like really good people
I remember once my mother finally bringing up my depression to my physician. Without even looking up, the doctor immediately waved it off and said to me, “You’re just being dramatic. Be more mature and you won’t have those episodes anymore.” My mother had never tried to be supportive of my mental illness until that moment, and the look of apology she gave me is one I’ll never forget. It took going to a therapist once I became an adult to finally get the diagnosis I knew I had.
That one of the reasons I refuse to ask, my doctors don’t listen anyways
I hate when people say those kind of things, you are so strong! thank u for sharing and I`m glad that at least your mom could support you, I wish you the best
Some people in the health/doctor business are only there for the money
SAME, she keep telling i am just acting like a kid and idk if i should keep going or :( bc my family don't believe in mental health, it was so hard to convince them to take me to one and now this happened
What is your diagnosis if you don't mind me asking?
Poor Edgar man- you can tell he is trying his hardest to speak at the end :((
fr and he had so much to say but didn’t rlly talk for the whole video
I broke when I heard his voice break.. 💔
Had to watch his part in pieces💔
mhm :(
The guy who said “life is more than just me” broke my heart literally imagine how much empathy he has in his heart despite what he’s been thru :( luv him
we tend to have a lot of empathy, and it explains some people's suffering actually. love your comment x
You mean figuratively...
no i mean literally
Love you too 💕
Edgar Meraz omg it’s uuuu the “life is more than just me” omg 🤧🥺 I totally agree with this comment, ur amazing
when some of them nearly started crying and the one guy was stuttering and nearly crying i almost cried myself :(
Maureen Kay I wanted to hug him 😔
It was raw and relatable
I know right?! It’s really a reminder that we all go through some serious mental battles
I DID 😒
These videos are really ruining my emotional balance, man
when kimberly started stuttering i just felt my heart completely drop like you could tell she was holding back the urge to cry
for the self diagnosing question, they need to consider the fact that getting a diagnosis from a professional is not possible for many people because of cost and accessibility. it is a priviledge to get diagnosed
yesss!!! I'm so glad you brought that up
thank you for saying this
thank you for this, this question really pissed me off. that one guy's answer felt really "gatekeep-y". not everyone has the mental, financial, or family approval to seek help or proper diagnosis.
@@elrunts exactly. i’ve had severe anxiety all my life and my parents refused to acknowledge or believe me. when i finally got a psychologist i had also developed depression from having untreated anxiety for so long. being diagnosed is such a privilege
@@kou4875 the problem is that in the modern day it became cool to have mental illnesses and too many people self diagnose themselves with disases they dont have, you know.
Even though every other person says they have depression, many of them dont and thats a fact.
When sparklle said that the doctor said she wasn’t thin enough I felt so bad.
*You don’t have to be thin to have an eating disorder*
Amy Searle unfortunately at one point the DSM had a having certain under weight BMI present as a criteria to be diagnosed
@@sarahlovesgaga6426 For a bulimia diagnoses or OSFED diagnosis, BMI is actually not part of the criteria to get diagnosed ❤ That was part of why it was such an uninformed thing to say, especially for a therapist! I agree that it shouldn't be part of the criteria for anorexia as well, though, which does currently list BMI as a criteria
I have an eating disorder and im a chubby chick so.....
BED (binge eating disorder) exists...
@@sparkllerainne4311 my therapist said the same thing...despite having told her i was underweight the previous 2 years...but the thing i dont get is that it starts when something bad happens and stops when im close to dying 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
To everyone commenting about the woman with OCD standing in the middle of the lines, she commented that it made her anxious to stand on the lines and she didn't even notice she was in the middle.
Questions solved, go back to meming.
We've been addressed....thx tho....
One of the top comments said it, and she also replied on a few comments 😊
@@evidence7338 Yea, I've still seen some people who are saying "the woman not standing on the lines is pissing me off" and I just want to help with the clarification.
@@catrasauce it was before ppl responded ..
Her anxiety's also contributing to her doing it, and she didn't notice.

When Edgar was tearing up while speaking, you could hear how deep his pain is. Wish I could give him a hug. I hope things get better for him and everyone else
I'd heard "Depression is for rich people" growing up. It was true tho, only rich people get diagnosed, healthcare is a joke.
That’s not true
@@cassandrawright5202 I don’t think the commenter actually believes this statement, but they’re saying that healthcare is so expensive (in the USA at least) that mostly people with higher income are able to get diagnosed. It’s different in some states though. I was able to get help because I’m a foster kid in California (idk how it is in other states for foster care,) but her point still stands for all the lower income people who don’t have any guidance on resources, or people who don’t have insurance. Also depends on guardians and their mindset (mindset in general I guess.). Of course their mental illness is still valid (it is hell going through mental illness undiagnosed) but I’m assuming her point is that healthcare needs to be readily available for everybody
@@mz9057 yes it does depend on your state. I’m currently low income but my gov insurance allows me to see a doctor and therapist and that’s how I received my diagnosis’s.
that’s not true at all. i’ve been diagnosed with mmd & social anxiety and i’m not rich at all. i’m lucky i got diagnosed, but not only/all rich ppl get diagnosed
@@ava7106 they were referring to a majority.
Most of the interviewees’ voices are trembling. That exactly how I would sounds like if I try to communicate my illness. It’s really not easy topic to talk about, I know how painful it is and I want to applaud them for being so brave. This video made me tear up, I wish I’m as brave as they are to face mine..
Hadiyah Asma Thank you 💕
agreed, i’d be struggling when thinking about the dark parts. i do just when i’m in my head, let alone telling people i’m close with. it’s a ton of pain
Edgar Meraz Hey its you!
Loved you in the video
I completely agree, if I was there I’d be bawling- even just thinking of my anxiety & depression makes my eyes tear up
I agree with you, a tear did form in my eye while watching this video and watching them talk about their illnesses. It makes me so heartbroken knowing others are dealing with what I have to deal with, I'm not alone and I shouldn't feel like it's a problem but I just wanted to share...
I can’t believe the doctor told her it’s not a problem if she’s not thin enough! That comment would cause someone to have an eating disorder
Jazzya oh that’s sadly completely normal .-.
Jazzya they said the same to me
Doctors are crap
Anorexia can only be diagnosed when the patient is below a certain BMI. The therapist was right to not misdiagnose her. The woman in the video said herself that she was later diagnosed with bulimia and anorexia at different times, meaning her weight was fluctuating around this BMI threshold. She had also mentioned problems with her teeth, directly suggesting that she purges by means of vomiting. This is an excellent example of why laypeople shouldn't self-diagnose; rather, they should do their best to provide the therapist with as accurate a description of their symptoms as possible so an appropriate diagnosis can be made, followed by appropriate treatment.
I think this therapist was young and still didn’t know so much. But you are right, this is so wrong.
感覚喪失 but the lady who said she talked to a therapist said she said, as a general term, that she had a eating disorder. Not specifically anorexia. If someone is that concerned the therapist shouldn’t ever just shut down a patient that can ruin the connection that is supposed to be shared between doctor and patient. Even if she didn’t have an eating disorder, it’s a mental state that is unhealthy and very depressive and can hurt a lot of people’s lives. If she had a risk of an eating disorder which she obviously did then the therapist should have tried to understand the root and try to prevent it from progressing.

I have really bad mental health I’ve got, GAD, PTSD, autism, epilepsy, social anxiety, panic attacks and a bunch more. So life is really hard I can’t go out the door without having anxiety and I feel no one apart from my family can really understand what I’m going through and I feel like I’m all alone.

"I think that if I didn't have my disorder I wouldn't be who I am, and I'm okay with that, because life is more than just me"
Is no one else going to comment on this quote? I found it so interesting
A lot of people with autism/autistic people embody their diagnosis and wouldn't enjoy not having that piece of them that makes them unique. I guess it depends on the mental illness and the support the person has gotten around it.
the "because life is more than just me" part can mean so many things what do you think he meant with that? im kinda confused tbh
@@maju404 hes saying that he hates being that burden for everyone else as well. He doesnt like that his mental illness doesnt only affect him but his family as well because at a young age to get help u can't do anything, u have no money. If I didnt have this mental illness a ton of stress would've been lifted alone from others I know. That's what I'm understanding from it.
Inspire Wolf I totally agree, it’s so interesting and I think it’s true, totally true. I cried when he said that
@@xMushroomFairy well I think there are huge differences between disorders. Like I said, many people with autism would keep it even if offered the chance to get rid of it. People with OCD, anxiety, depression, antisocial personality disorder, borderline, etc mostly don't want those because of how significantly it affects their lives. Depends on the person.
i love the girl with the glasses, she listens to every person attentively and nods to let them know that she's taking in what they're saying and appreciating their opinions

Realest comment I’ve seen for a while
the self diagnosing question made me so mad! yes i definitely agree that self diagnosing can be extremely harmful to yourself and cause you to not get the proper care you need, but a lot of people don’t have access to free health care! and so when they notice something is wrong with them they can’t get the help they need and end up self diagnosing to try and figure out what is wrong with them and deal with it on there own.
YES!!!

Therapist: Tells a person with anorexia and bulimia that they're not thin enough
Damn...
exactly!!!!! that had me shook
Miguel Melo There is a weight component when diagnosing anorexia though. They have to be extremely underweight, but that doesn’t change the fact that even if they don’t meet that weight requirement they are still dealing with dangerous thoughts and behavior and shouldn’t be dismissed.
that’s why they introduced EDNOS, which is a condition in which you in fact have an eating disorders but don’t have all the symptoms required to be categorized as either anorexic or bulimic (sorry for my English, it is not my first language)
It's so sad that things like these happen! When I was at a really low point in my ED, I wanted to talk to someone, but always told myself that I need to lose some more weight before I can do that. I felt like I was not sick enough or that no one would actually believe me...
Yeah that the unfortunate reality with ED diagnoses

I have all of those also. Plus intermittent explosive disorder.
The pain in their voices during the last question made tear up. Mental illness takes all you have. You are all strong, capable and resilient ❤
I started crying when they all moved to the “agree” side after the phrase of therapy and medication. I just recently decided to get help and this video made it easier.
Same,got the balls to call a therapist after 2 years of struggling. The appointment is on monday and I still dont feel ready but I won't survive without so there is no other solution
I wish you both all the luck!!
You can do it ❤️
i’m looking into getting some help and seeing that part of that video was really encouraging
Kylie Darnell for me it was the best thing i did
I'd love to see an episode with people on the autism spectrum.
yes! and even those who are non-verbal but capable of understanding the questions. like, we could have them write down their responses (:
Yes
autism is so misunderstood and is made fun of alot
I would love to see a bunch of acoustics as well
I would really like this, or one where there is a comparison between asd and adhd cuz theres so much overlap
I would volunteer to be on the show. I have aspergers syndrome
I would really love an episode on ADHD!! There’s so much misinformation about it and it goes severely under diagnosed, especially in women/AFAB.
i agree! i was pretty shocked that adhd wasn’t included in this video
@@lynx2179 adhd isn’t considered a mental illness, is why! what we have is considered a condition/disorder :)
I agree as well! I got diagnosed recently and would like to see an episode of it. Also it would be interesting if they made one of autism and/or neurodivergent people
ADHD has alot of misinformation linked to it. The fact that people don't understand our condition even though it's commonly diagnosed, is astonishing
Today I was in a good mood all day. I woke up smiling. These kinds of days are so rare for me that whenever I even have some moments where I genuinely enjoy my life it means something.
I hope that your having a good life and if not I wish you the best of luck and things we’ll get better eventually

@@jul-ut7sc not just plain black. He has on floral black.

LMAO
Most people with mental illnesses are comfortable in black. Not sure why, that’s just an observation
i always thought self diagnosis was dangerous and because i was so against self diagnosis i didn't believed i was depressed or had anxiety cause i thought i was just faking symptoms to get attention, now i understand that maybe it's just away to understand that there's something wrong and accept that and seek help but it still dangerous to go out there claiming you have an illness without actually knowing what you have and not look for a professional opinion
I agree I think people shouldn’t feel like they are faking their feelings but I think diagnosing yourself and telling everyone you have an illness that you haven’t been diagnosed with is a bad thing to do. I see people have negative emotions and go right to diagnosing themselves because they were never taught how to deal with scary feelings. When someone does that it’s very invalidating. Also I see this A TON with adhd and ocd people use it as an adjective and people think ocd is just being neat and adhd is being a “crackhead” and that so false and invalidating. I think if someone is struggling they should seek help instead of diagnosing themselves because in the end nothing will change in your brain with a diagnosis it’s the help that you get that helps you
this happened to me also. i self diagnosed with anxiety and depression and then convinced myself I was faking for attention, and then I didn’t get help for 2 years
@@Giloaodpjdjwlhjao I disagree. i think there are people who call themselves adhd for example for attention when they aren’t. this is bad and harmful. however I think the benefits outweighs the risks. I’d rather someone who’s not mentally ill say they are for clout, than someone who IS mentally feel isolated from help (self diagnosis is often the first step to a real diagnosis.) Obviously there is nuance and it can be dangerous like you said, but I think self diagnosis should be taken serious for those reasons
I want to give Kimberly and Edgar hugs so badly. When they were on the verge of tears while explaining... 😭😭😭
i feel like this was the most polite video of this series like wow no fights at all, everyone respecting each other’s turn to talk
A lot of my friends are mentally ill and I used to be too. I might still be, not sure to be honest. They're the best listeners and the wisest people I know
Because this was personal and it needs more deeper understanding and they have all experienced mental illness so they know the feeling...
The gang episode was wonderful as well! It was a Middle Ground video, but lots of solidarity and compassion between the men.
It’s because we need to be listened to and they all understood that
This video, teen moms, and suicide survivors. I think when people who share a deep struggle like these, they know what it's like to have feuds and they want to do what they can to avoid it. They also are generally more kind-spirited based off what they've been through
For everyone in the comments mad at Sparklle not standing on the lines: SHE HAS OCD. You don't know how uncomfortable actually standing on the lines may have been for her smh
Holy Butter this is there internet where people don’t do as they’re told...
That didn't bothered me as much as she keeps moving her hands so damn much 😡
Jennifer Robinson again... probably OCD... this video was meant to lessen the stigma but u’ve completely overseen that purpose and are bashing at her for hand movements?? Dude...
D3ViL。悪魔 if you don’t believe that these are people why are you watching? And how can you say that? Do you not believe that people can have these mental illnesses?
Thank you!!! 🙌
As a mental health clinician, this hurts a bit watching. That said, I value the honesty and openness about their experiences. It will definitely make me think about my interactions with patients.
Hi ! Do you know what disorder the guy with the burgundy sweater has ? I feel like I can relate to him a lot
@@VlogzForLeo I appreciate the question, I really can’t diagnose someone that I haven’t evaluated, and he gave so little details on his symptoms that it’s so hard to say.
It sounds like there was irritation, anger and acting out as a child, and hospitalizations throughout his life. That sounds like mood disorder, either a disruptive mood disregulation disorder or just major depressive disorder. But again, with such little info about symptoms, etiology, presence of psychosis, S/I… I can’t say anything with any real accuracy.
As someone who just recently got diagnosed with anorexia, bipolar, and anxiety this has helped me feel a little more understood and less alone. This was so refreshing and honestly the most heartfelt video on this channel and i just love this so much. Thank you
i appreciate how much they all listened to each other however different their opinions were. a lot of times on these episodes people shut each other down or argue because they don’t share the same opinions, but that didn’t happen here. i think it’s because... mental illness is something that’s so personal and it both shapes AND IS shaped by our life experiences, so we’re more likely to hear each out and empathize with each other and accept that not everything is going to be the same for everyone. a lot of the time it creates more of that empathy inside of us that people without these experiences don’t have. thank you for making this episode.
It’s because a lot of us with mental health actually care about one or another.
I personally don’t like seeing people go through pain so I try to help
Yeah this was the 'nicest' episode I've seen in which i felt everyone was listening to each other and respectful and empathising and not one person constantly cutting accross others with their opinion
Honestly it sounds terrible to say but I usually prefer people who have gone through fucked up things over people who haven't. People who have lived good lives have a tendency to not take any struggle seriously and put it on laziness or exaggeration.

"I will shake someone's hand sometimes and be like, yeah, I have OCD"
And then there's me who has OCD and gets anxiety from thinking about touching someone else's hand.
The last question was really interesting, and if I had the chance to get rid of my anxiety, oh my life would be so much easier. My anxiety has caused me to quit multiple jobs and not attend school, and it's made my life so much harder... if only it would be gone.

The guy saying "having to figure out, in your 20's, if your life is worth it" that hit me. I felt it. I hate living everyday feeling like I don't know what the point of still living is.
Idk I find that rather than looking for a point it's looking for things that make it worthwhile, which is easier said than done, but still
Jayden keep on breathing! if you ever need a talk you can hit me up on instagram, it's ole.1410. I mean it you can rant or anything. Also, I agree with the person above me. It got much easier for me when I accepted that there isn't really a point and it's just about enjoying yourself and your lifetime.
something my therapist said that helped me was to focus on human connection. there are people out there who care about you, and connecting with them and getting to know other people, and letting them get to know you, is such a special thing about living
I'm in my 20s and have mental health struggles. Jesus fills the hole and gives me purpose and hope in this life and ultimately for salvation in the next. He is the way, through the hard times and the good. Keep on keeping on. God Bless.
I wondered every single day what my purpose for being alive is until the very first time I attempted suicide. I have "I love you" in my siblings handwriting tattooed on each of my wrists as a reminder of why my life is worth it. I have decided that my purpose in life is to just love those beside me with all that I have, to love freely and unconditionally. You will find yours. (-:

“being in your 20s.. it’s not easy to question if your life is worth it” YES
i’yana tolliver hhhmkikm this actually made me break down 😭
"without my disorder I wouldn't be who I am and I'm okay with that" rlly broke me. Sending u good vibes man
Yeah, it was so raw. When he said that 'life is more than just me', it was an interesting perspective because it's a very selfless way of thinking. Like he would get rid of his mental disorder not to rid himself of the burden, but to make it easier for the people who care about him. It's very sincere and I really hope he continues to stay strong.
I'm SHOCKED that that many of them trust medical professionals. I've had SO many bad experiences with medical professionals as someone who has mental illnesses and is neurodivergent. I literally today had a psychiatrist push my paperwork aside that I gave them diagnosing me with a condition and say "oh, everyone gets diagnosed with that. We all have those symptoms"
This made me so emotional. What a bunch of beautiful, strong people. I can't imagine what they're going through. I just want to send positive waves their way. I hope they continue to be a voice for the voiceless like they said. Mental illnesses are still not talked about enough. Thank you, Jubilee for this! Sending love.
the girl with the tattoos and the guy in the red blazer, the tone and waver of the voice during the last question shot so much personal empathy through my heart

"If i didn't have my disorder i wouldn't be who i am, and i'm ok with that because life is more than just me". That crushed me, he really puts hes loved ones before him completely.
This show is so necessary to educate people. As someone with bipolar, anxiety, and ADHD it can be really hard to go through and people just don't understand or take me seriously because I don't look like I'm struggling.
"I wish I didn't have my illness" - Would someone actually *wish* to _have_ it? If I could snap my fingers and get rid of them all, I would. In a heartbeat - no question about it. They are a part of me, and a result of/caused by the things that I've gone through, but they are not who I am. I don't need them to be me; and they do not add to my life, they take from it. Impede me. Who would want that? I sure as hell wouldn't.
I wouldn't tbh. I would be too scared that everyone would think that I was lying in the past and that I made them worry for no reason ect.
I think my depression and anxiety actually helps with my creative process. When you have something that you can't really fix, you use it as a tool instead.

i really wanna give a hug to the girl struggling with her depression.
The last question made me cry, as much as I do agree that having mental illnesses and going thru them made the person I am today, it also made my life exponentially more difficult, sometimes doing mundane things is hard, sometimes you might hurt people you love dearly because of your illness and that makes me wish i never had them. It's nice that mental health is being brought to light and taken seriously more often nowadays tho, destigmatizing is the best way to treat us and make our burden lighter.
The black guy was incredibly inspireing, "using his voice for the voiceless" and "spreading awareness on his community"... Not all heroes wear capes. Great video.
I mean, it's an overused bucket list comment. I cringed a bit because of how many times that one line has been mentioned.
It is overused... but depending on the place and circumstance, it makes a big difference and could potentially have a bigger impact.

Omit the "E", but yes I AGREE

It makes me so sad to hear their voices quiver...
I always see my mental illness as something someone in the world has to have and i got it because i'm strong enough to handle it, it sucks i have it but i wouldn't want anyone else to have it so i take it as it is. It also made me closer to my family and pets, and i wouldn't want it any other way.
I've decided to answer the questions with the video.
Hi, I'm Juni. I'm 13 years old and I was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder at the age of 7.
Question one: Mental health was discussed in my home growing up
My answer: agree
My mother also has been diagnosed with anxiety (although mine is worst) so my father and younger brother would have to know that we're not crazy
Question two: People are surprised to find out I have my mental illness
My answer: somewhat agree
My reasoning for my answer is because people don't know the difference between a medical diagnosis, self-diagnosis, and one panic attack every 5 years. People try to relate to me, but when I tell them I actually have the illness, they're shocked because they thought it was just that once, when in reality, it's everyday
Question three: I trust medical professionals
My answer: Agree
If I didn't trust them, my family wouldn't trust them. My family trusts medical professionals, so I do too. My mother and I would've never been diagnosed and I would've never gotten therapy for 6 years straight and still going. I would've thought there was something wrong with me, and in fact I did when I was 7. I was bullied because of it. A symptom that I still have is getting annoyed easily. I was bullied for getting annoyed out of nowhere and getting stressed for the littlest reason
Question four: Self-diagnosis is dangerous and invalid
My answer: somewhat agree
I don't see why it could be dangerous, maybe getting medication somehow, but for invalid, there's a chance they could be correct. With Trisha Paytes (idk how to spell it), her "diagnosis" is invalid because it's obvious she doesn't have it
Question five: therapy and medication works for me
My answer: agree
I've learned many ways to help cope healthily with my anxiety and slow it down. I'm thankful my family can afford it. As for medication, my mother doesn't want me taking it, and my doctor asked if I had medication for it. My mother said no and that I was totally fine, despite the fact she knows I'm not
Question six: I wish I didn't have my illness
My answer: somewhat disagree
Although I don't enjoy it, it's what makes me stand out. I'll always be sad that I have to deal with it, but I've also grown stronger and learned to deal with bullying, despite the fact I get panic attacks thinking about the past and thinking if it'll happen in the future
We're, literally the same! hi I'm kayleigh, I'm 12 except im in the middle of my diagnosis for anxiety. Question 1 was metal illness talked about in you're house (my answer) agree , my mother has anxiety and my sister has adhd so while it is talked about my mam didn't belive me at first she said oh no u don't want to say that and I told her I really think we need to see a docter ,She eventually agreed and we went to our local one, mainly my low iron but we talked a bit about anxiety the docter said I might have it so we're going to a specialist soon.
Question 2, people r supposed when they find out u have anxiety (my answer) somewhat agree nothing much too it people just don't realy except it. I do tend to say it to my friends tho . Question 3 will answer in the next coment..........
Ok question 3 do u trust medical centres and people, my answer agree, yes I do, question 4, do you think self diagnosing is dangerous or invalid, somewhat disagree, well I do think it could be dangerous to try get medicine for self diagnosing but I don't think it's completely invalid , self diagnosing isn't good but sometimes it's realy expensive and hard to get a diagnosis of u honestly can't get one I think then it fine. Question 5 therapy and medication works for you, disagree,I don't go to therapy well yet anyway so idk and my mam said she doesn't want me talking medication for it so I don't know either , question 6 I wish I dint have my mental illness, disagree, it is a struggle and keeps me up at night it , prevents me from relaxing but it makes up a part of me and Even tho it's annoying i stand out because of it also I get out of doing some stuff in school cause of it ;) but anyway u seem realy nice btw x

Depression can often be smiles in the day and tears in the night

I wish I could hug Edgar so bad. Keep going, you're doing great, believe me!
I am consistently impressed by the strength and vulnerability expressed by the participants in these episodes. Not only are they honest, but they are so articulate in explaining their experiences. Bravo to everyone involved, especially those in front of the camera telling their stories.
Everyones saying "i wouldn't be stronger or who i am today without my mental illness" but am I the only one who would 10000% get rid of their own mental illnesses if they had the chance? It's made many of my days unbearable and I don't think ill be looking back at my 20s as fondly as I should be because of it. I don't remember the last time i felt genuinely happy or without any sort of a dark cloud over my head. I can't appreciate the present because I'm always busy hoping the future will be a lot better. A lot of the reasons I cant enjoy life are because of my mental illnesses, i dont care if its "shaped me" in what ever way. Even being in therapy, I feel like I wont ever get better.
i would too, its my biggest wish in life. i dont think my mental illnesses have affected who i am that much, i would still be kind, still be funny, creative, loving, understanding. i dont think i have those attributes because of my mental illness. i dont even care if i cant get rid of the memories of my trauma and what i have went through, if you could just take away my struggles right now in life i would be so happy
예미나dopamineh exactly. I feel like my good traits would be improved because I’d be able to showcase them more without feeling gloomy.
Yeah i completely agree with you, I'm 13 and iv been diagnosed with depression and anxiety and I don't think I'll ever look back and think it made me strong becuase all its done is negative. I can't experience things other 13 year olds can heck I can't even go into a shop or out my house without having a panic attack or mental breakdown. It's not fun and it doesn't make me strong what so ever. All it's doing is taking away my childhood I guess.
I think people can actually think that when things are better, when the treatment is going well, when they healed. I remember year ago when i was struggling and when it was really hard that I used to think why me or I wish this would dissapear but when I started to get better I realized how much I've grown, things I didn't realize before about people, the world and myself. Things to improve in myself etc. Is not like thank God I went through this but like hey this teached me things and I know I'm stronger now, that took part on who I am today .
the whole “i wouldn’t wish my mental illness away” ideal is definitely something that comes with recovery and time. no one in the thick of it is going to feel that way.
As someone with anxiety and has panic attacks.. i would like to announce.. that I performed infront of my class in drama without having a panic attack or crying on Thursday.

"You are not thin enough?" I can't believe someone said that. But my daughter went to a therapist, who told her, that she was too pretty to be depressed.
huh?!!!!!!!!!!!!!! u cant be real.
karend169 it’s actually a criteria in the DSM to diagnose anorexia nervosa that the individual must have a low BMI. I definitely don’t agree with it though there should just be evidence of a weight loss in general
Grace S i don’t think it should even be weight loss that determines whether you get a diagnosis or not, drastically unhealthy eating habits should be enough of an indicator imo

Would love to see this.
I have it too and I would love to see this!
my heart kinda dropped when they answered about self-diagnosing.. i am very sure i have depression.. i have so many symptoms and took countless online tests. i probably wont get diagnosed for a while though, im so scared of talking to my parents about it (my best friends know and they help me a lot) self diagnosing is completely valid in the right situation.
The entire time I was thinking how I just want to hug all of them. Then they hugged at the end and I lost it. 😭 Their courage and strength is so inspiring.
I love the fact everyone is different yet similar
This one would be a bit controversial, but maybe “do all people who have had an abortion think the same?”
I feel like the episodes would be about stuff most people don't think about. Like this one, it's hard to think about if it would. But when it comes to people who have abortions, or even guys who suffered through the abortion, you can kinda think about how some would be happy or fine with it, and some would be devastated. Y'know what I mean? But I could be wrong, it could be a good episode
There are so many different reasons people have abortions I think it would offend some of the participants like maybe those who had medical complications compared to people who just couldn’t afford a child mentally or economically I’m not saying one reason is more valid than the other just it’s such a broad situation it’s like saying do all people who receive food stamps think the same
I would love this video.
That’s a good one. Because I’ve seen a couple of people who had an abortion in the past (And their education/careergreatly benefited from it) but they are pro life.
I would love to see that.
I have GAD and OCD, and I tried when I was a teenager to express to my parents that there was definitely something going on with me. They downplayed it a lot and said I was just overreacting. I got diagnosed a few years ago now, and I’m incredibly insecure about my mental illnesses because I feel like if I ever open up about them, I’ll be told that I’m overreacting. That’s what I was expecting my doctor to say to me.
Please don’t tell someone that they’re overreacting if they truly think that they might have a serious issue. We know ourselves better than anyone else knows us, and if something is wrong, we will be the first to notice it.
When the lady with ocd moved to the agree side when the question was "do u wish u didn't have this illness" I FELT THAT!! OCD IS TERRIBLE
I hope that "professional" that told Sparklle she didn't have an eating disorder because she wasn't thin enough has lost her license.
foreverandayear technically speaking a therapist can’t diagnose you with an eating disorder unless your bmi subpasses a certain point but she still could and should have offered support
While it’s a horrible thing to say, it may have been a miscommunication. Technically in order to be diagnosed with anorexia nerviosa there needs to be significant low weight (DSM-V). If that aspect is not present, an individual can definitely still be diagnosed with an eating disorder, but not anorexia nerviosa. This may have been where a comment like “you’re not thin enough” may have come from, but that doesn’t excuse that that’s a really reckless and ignorant thing to say to someone who may have an ED
@@freddi1404 yaa i was just about to say, they cant diagnose everyone with eating disorders who throw up a lot unless almost everyone would have an eating disorder; it would have to get so bad that you lose a lot of weight; but i thinks thats a fault system because the person would be a;ready too far gone to properly heal and recover from ti
@@freddi1404 This is not true. Sparklle was talking about purging, which is a typical bulimia habit. In order to be diagnosed with bulimia, you can be at any weight. The decisive factors are how long and how often you've been bingeing and purging, whether you think about food and related issues more than a normal person and stuff like that. Being underweight does not have anything to do with that, bulimic people can have any weight.
peaceblossom8 Exactly
6:02 "I told my therapist I think I have an eating disorder but she said I'm not thin enough, it's not a problem until I get thinner" This pisses me off so much.
She could've just as well said "Go home and get thinner, girl" 🙈
as someone with PTSD and MDD, I would absolutely take away my illnesses if i could. absolutely. but i really love what Eric said about that. some lovely people here in this video and i wish them all the best.
