I’m struggling with depression right now and one thing that has helped is staying away from the news and social media. I know you are are a strong person and you will find a higher plateau soon, especially with the approach you are taking to cope better with this crazy world right now. I send you love and peace. ❤
I learned another way of looking at this the other day - 'depressed' being a synonym for, and symptomatic of, your body requiring 'deep rest'. It gave me food for thought. (hug)
Wishing you well man. I've struggled with depression my whole life and it's been really bad again recently. It's so hard to break out of a doom cycle, and en election year certainly makes everything feel more grim. I love hearing your insight into random issues or movies or honestly whatever you talk about. The world is a better place with you in it, always remember that.
Hang in there! You got this! I have chronic depression and was drinking and smoking as well, but I had to find a way to put the bottle down and the b*ng away. It wasn’t easy, but I was able to do it and have been sober since March of 2023. At the time I stopped drinking/smoking I never thought I would be able to be sober this long. I said that to let you know that you can do it too, you just have to take it one day at a time. Also, you shouldn’t be ashamed of your views, and honestly, if you have people in your life or on Facebook that would abandon you because you have different views than them, then they aren’t your people anyway. You have to find your village. I see that you mentioned that you’ve made progress with your weight loss goal and I want to let you know that I’m so happy for you! Take it easy and continue to take care of yourself. You got this!
Luv you dude. Depression is another dimension, don’t be too hard on yourself. Substances help and hurt and hurt and help. You aren’t broken and theres nothing to fix.
weed vapes are especially dangerous just because of how goddamn easy they are to use. got hooked on those pretty bad for a while earlier this year, not easy to quit.
Wishing you well man! I myself had a pretty bad 2023, worst year of my life in fact. It also started with politics and expectations and then turned into ever-increasing negative thinking loops that drew in all parts of my life. I got out of it by changing my situation wholly and leaving my home for a few months. Now it's way better.
Wishing you nothing but the best. I hear the hurt in your voice, but you're strong for being so open about it. Many people can't record themselves doing that, let alone admit (and rather deny) their issues in the first place. Congrats on losing the weight, and there's no doubt you're gonna continue piling on the accomplishments. Do what you deserve to do for yourself, you got this!
I feel the same way Kizzume. I’ve been to four funerals in the last 11 months alone and other stuff going on around that. I’ve been struggling with the vape lately myself and the high doesn’t feel like it did before. These days I feel sick, tired and afraid to go out to see friends. I haven’t even been out to leather night at The Eagle. I must say that I feel a little bit better having watched your video because I now know this feeling is not uncommon. We must rise above this! Can’t afford not to. By the way, congratulations on losing 10 pounds 🫂❤️
I appreciate your commentary. Here’s the problem in the world we live in today, people are no longer allowed to have their own opinion. That’s more depressing to me than politics and in my opinion, that is truly what is wrong in this country.
"I guess a really depressing thing is knowing how many of my Facebook friends would unfriend or even block me if they knew about some of my views. Sometimes I just wish I could go back, you know, and not have some of the views I currently have. That's not really possible, so..." This is so relatable it hurts. I appreciate knowing I'm not alone in this. As you say, it seems to just be getting worse with time. I fear the gap between my perspective and what's "politically correct" will only continue to widen.
It's okay to experience the darker sides of Humanity; it's part of being alive. It's not wrong to have calmer, more introspective periods. Be kind to yourself. You deserve all good things, even if they look different for you. Quitting substances can help if you're truly ready, but start with self-compassion. You don't have to tackle everything at once.
I recommend seeing a psychologist to talk through your feelings with. I have personally found happiness through professional mental health support, especially through the concept of gratitude and mindfulness.
I just have been rewired to be happy alone lol. At one point many years ago I said my biggest fear was to be alone (Facebook reminded me of this lol) now my fear is, probably, not getting to be alone. Hopefully you can find a solution ✌🏼
Alcohol and Drugs are tough. I feel you. I was able to kick the alcohol, but maybe it was more of a trade for a different vice. The weed pen is the same... I want it but I know i dont need it, and would be better off without it... It was nice to see your video today and realize im not alone.
hey man i have been very depressed for at least 8 years, i finally went to my doc about it because it was getting to the point of thinking about harming myself. if balancing your habits doesn't work please consider talking to your doc. i didn't realise how much of a chemical imbalance i had until i took meds to balance them im 2 months on my depression meds and wow is it night and day. please don't let yourself reach anhedonia its a slippery slope from there.
Don't feel guilty or upset over having different views. I know it's hard and easier said than done, but know you are very intelligent and at a point in your life you know you were able to be your best self and you are always gonna be strong enough to come back to yourself. Don't rush perfecting mental health because its not always 100% possible, take baby steps with getting off of substances it can happen and you WILL shine again friendly stranger take care of yourself and be strong, you got this ! 🎉
Great to hear you're losing weight, wish we could all learn to agree to disagree. nothing wrong with having different views, doesn't mean we need to cut each other off or treat each other like shit for it.
weed and vices can be good for the soul in small doses, the problem is that most people cannot just keep those enjoyments in small doses. The anxiety of both needing them and knowing how bad they are for you creates a feedback loop that feeds into all the negative emotions we feel on a daily basis. I would suggest Wim Hof's breathing technique meditation session, it only takes 5 minutes to try and I think it helps pausing all the surface thoughts that you seemingly cant seem to shake off.
Man, i have depression aswell and cant really say much to help but i can say that i found you from csi criminal psychology or something like that and i REALLY love when you voice over stuff cause you have a GOLDEN voice mate. But shiiii, yeah fuck everything
If you live in a beautiful area. I´d suggest going out and spend time in the nature. Take off your shoes and be one with nature. It´s okay to cry if you need to. It helped me a lot. Stay strong!
I hope things start to improve. I deal with it on & off myself. We're going into autumn now & I can already feel my mood elevating. Honestly I think your best bet is to remove yourself from the politics & social issues for a while. Online I'd mostly tribal nonsense & the mainstream media is mostly propaganda. Genuine people with nuance are hard to find & only contribute to the frustration & feeling of being alone in your mentality. I deleted twitter recently. As well as culled a lot of RUclips subscriptions. Leaving only the ones who seem genuine & avoid the hyperbole. Facebook will be next. That needs a clean up. But I'm lucky to have people IRL that share my frustrations. I dont know what your situation is. But I hope you have that. Makes life easier. Best of luck. I hope things improve.
@@kizzume I have friends with whom I disagree politically, and they know it. If your friends leave you over such a thing, it's probably for the best. Those aren't friends. If you're keeping them around just because they're useful, then by all means don't let them know how you think, but if you want a real friendship, then test it. "Are my friends my friends?" might be the question that's depressing you.
Depression is not to be taken lightly. If it feels this bad to you, I hope you are in or seeking treatment. It's not something likely to just "blow over". This is your only life and you have to figure out how to play the cards you've been dealt a best as you can. Whatever adjustments you feel are necessary to work through this should be made. Good luck.
soooo this is JCS Criminal Psychology! Also, I hope you're able to get better. I went through the same thing without the drugs, and I'm living proof that depression is something that you're able to get through. Stop beating yourself up and focus on your health. I believe in you.
I absolutely turned to stoicism for help with depression. Especially in the face of the world we live in. Why? Why let the things you absolutely can not control, control how you feel?
Seein a health professional for sure is the best bet if you feel it's a clinical or life altering amount, tho cutting the alcohol and weed will help regulate your dopamine and brain chemistry ups and downs, I believe. Keep strong on it all
Remember everyone depression is a mental illness. Like any illness, the best bet is to see a doctor, and consult with professionals, online advice won't get you anywhere. Treat it like you would treat a physical ailment
I love your commentary man. I wish you all the best man. Congrats on losing weight. Its better to quit the booze. Perhaps some more gaming videos/streams to change the subject a bit? Hope things get better, but just please, don't go to prison. I don't want to see an JCS episode of you narrating your own interrogation. Take care man.
I deal with depression, but I'm mostly apathetic about politics at this point. The federal government funds ethnic cleansing and creates genetically engineered something or another, it is irredeemable to me. There is nothing to support. I can vote on local ballot issues, but that stuff isn't likely to feed my depression that much.
Congrats losing weight, I know it's not always easy. Depression is sometimes an overly honest thing. It's so honest that it gets this drama queen quality in which everything feels like doom. (Hand to brow, fainting pose.) As the election draws closer, I'm getting more anxious. Then I filled out my ballot this week, and a cloud lifted. so I ask: *HAVE YOU TRIED VOTING YET?* It could help?
I wonder if we'll get to a time where people want to interact with people again, and by that I mean interact with them without having to use a phone or a computer. I mean during the pandemic people didn't interact with eachother that way because they couldn't, but now that they can, it seems a lot of them don't want to, and maybe it's just m,e but it doesn't seem that things were that way before the pandemic, at least not as bad, and I may be wrong, but I don't think the reason for peoples lack of desire to interact with people (without a phone or computer) simply boils down to people simply not wanting to catch a virus, I think there's more to it than that.
I hate your political views but guess what I don't hate you. You have always been a good dude hang in there brother a lot of us go though deep depression it does get better at times
That biology matters, that it has a great degree to do with civilization and social interactions in general. That culture isn't nearly as important as biology.
Are your friends political? I think a good friend is not going to ditch someone over political views, unless they are seriously troublesome, which isn't the case with you. Definitely throw out the Alcohol. Its one of the worst depression pusher there is. Btw. congratulations on losing 10 pounds.
It's more specifically about my gay friends, and I've seen them drop friendships over things that were tame compared to some of my views. Most out-of-the-closet LGBT people are very political. And thanks :)
@@kizzume That's sad to hear, but to be honest, I tend to keep away from people who are ready to cancel friendships over reasonable views. Sounds like it gets to them. Have you tried meeting new people, who are more open to discussing different viewpoints? These people do exist and it seems that your current friends, don't seem to be open to that. It's not like you hold some hardcore anti lgbt views. I see you more concerned about the community trying to go 3 steps forward without making the first step, and you see the danger of that backfiring (which is happening). On the other hand, its also ok to not deal and talk about political stuff with friends, and instead talk about whatever else. I don't talk much with my friends about politics either. We do occasionally, but not like this is our main thing.
Why not try to make new offline friends who aren't likely to unfriend you for expressing your views? To be honest, the friends you're talking about sound like a drag.
Because society has changed in a way that the primary way of meeting people is through something online. Concerts are too expensive now, so many ways of meeting people organically are too expensive, with the exception of meeting someone at a bar.
Weed definitely contributes to depression. My husband used to need prescriptions for depression, and not only doesn't need them but is objectively scoring better on depression metrics after giving up all thc products. I'm sorry to hear about your low mood right now, and i hope you feel better in the future. One day at a time.
I remember you were taking Zyprexa. It's a second-generation atypical antipsychotic that can help with the cyclical depression in Bipolar I and II but it almost always causes weight gain. You shouldn't mix it with alcohol because it can exacerbate depression. Don't want to sound trite, but please hang in there.
Before anything else, thank you for being honest. I've been trying to type this the way I want for an hour(edit:plus two more hours). I had a paragraph that just deleted, because I am currently drunk and high, but I feel very strongly about the way you speak here, so I want to be careful and respectful of what you have shared with us, whilst also sharing something of my own. I would very much enjoy the opportunity to privately discuss things we could record/broadcast that might be fun/healthy for us both. I mean sobre on the weekday kinda stuff that I think I need too, if you don't mind me being the guy standing up behind you saying "yeah, me too." It would be a pleasure, for instance, if you wouldn't mind recording something like a "bad lip reading" but with a theme (i.e. Pro Wrestling Promos, 80s Vacuum commercials) or anything similarly irreverent. Barring that, it'd be cool to just chat (privately or not) over a coffee about whatever is comfortable. Thank you for this, in any case. Also, for the record, fri*ken Eh on the ten pounds, sir.
Cheers Brother Kizzume. I admire your awesome honesty. Much Love. ✌️🏆

Stay strong my friend. YOU ARE NOT ALONE
We love you Kizzume❤️❤️❤️❤️
i hope things improve for you. exercising regularly, quitting alcohol and spending less time on social media all helped me greatly!
when my depression flares up I try to spend more time with the animals or in the garden.
should have 3 types of raspberry next year.
I might try that.
I hear you. Right there myself. Congrats on the 10lbs 🎉❤

Come jam with us.
That would be fun.
Reach out before it's too late
depression and doomer views are a byproduct of smoking weed. better not never have it started. its hard to quit :(
QUIT THE VAPE BAD FOR THE LUNGS QUITTHE DRINKING ALCHOLOL ON WEEKENDS WERE THINKING OF YOU ON YOUR PHONE YOU HAVE DO NOT DISTURB???
Oh wow I remember the last time I watched your vids you were on a nudist arc
Ah yes, the old days. LOL
I thought weed relaxes you
It can also make someone more involved and nervous
Depression from political realizations? Brother. What views are you feeling bad about?
That biology matters, that it has a great degree to do with civilization and social interactions in general. That culture isn't nearly as important as biology.

Also, for the record, fri*ken Eh on the ten pounds, sir.
