So many assholes feeling great. So many sensitive angels feeling blue. This is one fucked up world. So frustrating. So confusing. So humiliating. Grow strong brothers and sisters! Fight! Never give in! Never surrender! Turn your Pain into Will. And turn Will into Determination. And Determination into Action!! Your pain is your power! Remember this! YOUR PAIN IS YOUR POWER!!! You can move fucking mountains if you set your mind on it!
relax bro we aint going to war only war depressed people are fighting is reality. they gots to face the facts that the world aint a good place and there are many wrong doers who may un intentionally hurt you but to become stronger you have to overcome your weaknesses first
You have described just how I feel . I agree with you about talking with your mom . That is very important. Bless your heart . Your future is ahead of you .So , there is so much hope for you . Concerning myself I don't feel much hope . I do understand.
The fact that most of these comments are from guys is just so amazing. Look I love you man and if you need a friend I'm here .... No matter what day or time ... I'll be here. You're amazing and I believe in you. I truly do.
I know this is kind of an older video, but it's so extremely relevant to my life. I feel the exact same way. my weight has always been a struggle and I don't know if I'll ever have control :/
Fuck man this made me tear up because I've gone through the same thing and am still going through it. Had low self esteem and self confidence because of it for years and was depressed too. I hope you are doing alright man. You give me hope and inspiration in my weight losing battle.
Hey, I know you uploaded this years ago,i hope u feel better know! Please don't beat yourself, you are not alone! Please don't hurt yourself things will get better and you're worthy of life! You'll be a successful student!! Please keep trying, don't stop!

Why People just Bullying. You can change it at all but what want they Do change their personality? they'll never. Bullies are the biggest mothefu** on earth. hate it.
+Deal with cats I really never reply to comments. Yours touched me. I know that you posted this months ago, and I'm jst reading this now, but mate everything is going to be okay. I became okay. I'm still not skinny, but I've learned that life is way too damn short to waste being in a bad mood. Love yourself fully and truly, and then you'll get used to the feeling and realise that's what people in your life have for you. Keep your head up! Keep kicking ass! Keep giving it 100% and you'll move mountains. Contact me privately through Google+, I'd love to have a chat with you.
I want to die.I'm going through the same thing!its like your trapped in a cage.the cage is this world and there seems no way out.ppl tell you not to self pity but u can't hide too long from pain.I hate every one! But ppl like u I really appreciate cuz ur a mirror of me even
Yeah, I know the feeling... Damn, all this people being assholes or just plain rude and all the bullying in general... Plus the rap and abuse, so I get where you're coming from. :) I am here for you if you ever need me :)
lovely lion Even though you want to, you shouldn't. I can't stop you, and I do not know your history.. But I am basically homeless, I lost my family, I get bullied and beaten throughout my life, smashed into the ground, and I will always be here for you
awwe i hope you can get better. you are so sweet and very handsome and seem like you have a great personality💕stay strong through this storm. your just a character in their bad part of their story. things will only get better if you let it. make your own umbrella for this rain and don't use anyone else's.
I know exactly how you feel 😊 you feel hopeless like I did. I was in college and felt bitterly frustrated, I had anxiety, panic attacks, depression, I lost and gained a lot of weight. I also just really hated my colleagues, I knew I just did not belong there.
In fact If I remember correctly fact I posted the exact same thing on RUclips earlier this year. Basically here is my advice, see if you can arrange with your parents if you can work from home, you will then take away any feelings of resentment being in college. I know college is a horrible experience. but hang in there, be strong, look after yourself. no matter how you feel or how far down the rabbit hole you aee, try and keep your head up, think positively as much as you can. it's tough I know. see if you can have a separate quiet room to work I ln or work from home (what I did). this way you will remove any negative connections with college environment whilst keeping on track with your work and progress. if anyone is at home to help ask for support.
I am saying this because I felt the exact same thing, I felt alone and felt resentment. I am doing this to help anyone who's going through the same thing, it's not at all easy. in the long run you will only feel drained and exhausted/fatigued. I hope I can help people out of there situations and hopefully avoid how I felt in college. I am in the same boat, don't worry.
Tommy Chappell Thank you so much for reaching out to me. It's so relieving to know that I am not alone. I always wondered if there was something wrong with me because I had a hard time fitting into the college social scene and everyone seem to find their own niche on campus. One thing I realized is that there is so much fake people in college and most are clickish meaning that they are not willing to allow any outsiders to join their group. I will be done this semester after I complete all my finals and I am surprise that I have managed to make it through the whole semester considering that I have to go through long periods of loneliness and depression. I am glad to know that I have at least survived and basically almost done with my degree.
+SChome100 The one thing I learnt is that no matter how personal you may feel the situation is to you, you are not unique in feeling this way. Also I know exactly what you mean by fake people haha, they just have different outlook/background to you. I also felt kind of disregarded by these people, it's like they are from planet Mars and you earth. but like you I am in my last week's of college too.
I think it’s just not meant to be for us. I have tried to change my situation but it doesn’t change. Talking about your moms I think this is where it starts for most of us. We just hate ourselves so much because of the toxic conditioning by our parents. (Please note it’s no one’s fault just life).
I have felt this way for like 3 months straight and now I have gotten a box with a lock on it, I taped a notebook on the inside and I rip out a peice of paper when I feel depressed and I write... I write how I feel, I write these things cause I have no one... No one... No one to talk too... Writing these things get them off my chest...
Lujayn Aljumaley i feel the same but why, do not know, nothing seems good, want to commit suicide, i kept myself alone. don't feel like to appear in front of anyone. why people hurt me when i do good to them, they even understand me a fool.
Man, today is probably the most depressed I have felt in my entire life. I was at work and couldn't survive in there. I just bounced without telling anyone. I felt so much better once I left. I don't get myself at all. I think I just hate people but I just don't know cause I also enjoy some people's company. I feel like I would be much happier if I just learned how to fake smile at people. Seems like everyone is doing it anyway.
Last January I felt exactly like you.... Every thing was running backwards and I could only see dead ends. But today, life is better. I'm finally making good grades, and found someone who loves me. Life has gotten better, and the sad parts I try SO hard to make better. Take things simple, step by step, and you'll get on the right track!
I know how you feel about thinking you need a support group. I feel the same way- I'm struggling to fix my diet, get more exercise, be more social and in general just improve my life. But it is so damn hard. I feel like when I'm doing things for other people or doing things under real-time pressure I'm a badass, but anything I try to do anything for myself when left under my own devices I just can't stay focused, stay consistent. It's so frustrating. Without someone kicking me in he ass, I'm helpless, and it's easy to feel worthless when feeling helpless. It's been a few years since you posted this, so I hope everything's working out for you, mate.
well, seeing this make me feel the same as i am right now and how i've been since so many years ago, with depression. It's incredible that you say that, you are beautiful to me and the people that criticize you have problems too and most of the time they don't know what they're talking about or saying to people, but anyways is hard to repel them away from your life. I've felt like you because of the thought that i know i've gained weight too and words can't explain the pain and the awful way that feels.. but let me tell you that you truly truly are beautiful and i'd have loved to be just like you, i really do.
There are so many others who are similar to you, and feel that no matter how much they try, they can't seem to achieve anything. Many are depressed because they are lonely, they feel worthless, or guilty about life events. Let me tell you this, if you put your mind to it you can achieve great things. I can tell that you are full of potential and are a great person. Dont give up!
Hey man, I'm sorry your going through a rough time. I understand how you feel, I feel the same way. I hope your feeling better. Depression really is a pain. Just know that we are always here to help you out, and to listen to you. We are here in your corner and we are here to help you out. You can vent as many times, and we'll always listen. You are loved so much my friend, and I am so proud of everything that you do! Keep up the great work my man, and know that you are loved!
Thank you so much for this gahd it sucks to feel depressed. I am bipolar and currently struggling with depression, I totally feel you bro. Things will get better for us.
just stumbled across your video today because I've been feeling down lately for a number of reasons.. uni, work, friends.. and I just want to say that there are people out there, my self included, that genuinely care for your well being. hope you are doing well and made it in to university. Bill
Okay i just wrote a realy heartfelt comment that was just deleted...i understand how you feel. All these unanswered questions and it just makes me angry at those with no answers or who are just overlooking all of this. Its so sad nobody ever understands so i just want you to know i do. Those who dont think its so easy too haha "just be happy" like its that easy. i cant be there physically but you know.. And i just want to give you a hug >.< other people crying makes me want to cry
This is exactly how i feel bud! Life is crap I hate it! But im trying to fight through it even tho feels like I'm losing everyday but I'm not giving up yet! So stay strong mate you will get through it!!
I'm so sorry that you're going through something like this, I really feel for you :( and i really hope you find the strength inside. But you gotta realise you're actually so in control of how you feel and you should never attach how you feel to what your external is , don't ever give up, i know there are going to be points in your life where you feel like nothing, but try to recognise the bigger truth thats out there xo
Dude I'm three years late but I watched this video because I myself felt the same way, I saw so much of myself in you and was immediately in tears when I saw how much pain you were in. I hope you went to uni and had that life you dreamt of, I'm 25 years old and have done that stuff now, and I can see you are a very smart, kind and lovable person more than deserving of everything all of us want out of life. My thoughts are with you dude and I wish you the very best of luck!
I know exactly what you're going through. I've been depressed lately mostly because I've been searching for a "very" good job and it seems like I haven't been getting anywhere. Keep your head up, I've also been there with the weight thing. If you ever need to talk i'm always here for you to lend a kind ear.
Don't worry we'll always be here and I totally understand your feeling. I'm 13 and I've attempted twice. I used to weigh a lot and then when I got made fun of I stopped eating. If someone is upsetting you, just say so! Don't be afraid to say "hey I'm watching my weight and I would feel more comfortable if I could make my own food" don't be afraid. We're here.
I can empathize with you. I don't have eating or weight issues. But I do relate to how you were feeling at the time of this video. I feel very depressed, down, lousy, sad, numb, feeling the blues, etc. I also feel like there is no light at the end of the tunnel. I think this is the most down I've ever felt in my entire life - the lowest of the lows. It's gotten to the point this week that I'm trying to schedule my first ever Psychic phone appointment. Yeah, yeah, many people are skeptical of Psychics, but right now I feel so lousy and down that I'm willing to be openminded to try something new. Just one Psychic reading. I want to hear something positive - something to give me hope and to give me reason to look forward to something later this year or in the future. I feel very depressed and lousy by what an ex-boyfriend and a female friend did for months this year. I also feel very down, sad, and depressed from what the ex-boyfriend said in one e-mail. He wrote some soul crushing, harsh, severe, devastating, truly hurtful things I've never experienced until now. He really depressed me with some of the things he wrote. I keep on replaying some of the things he wrote over and over in my head. He was way too harsh, severe, and brutal. There were parts he wrote that seemed nasty and mean, too. A person can be honest, but sometimes there is a thing as bad, disrespectful, and unclassy honesty. I also think he is too stubborn and set in his ways and doesn't listen or is unwilling to listen to feedback and advice people give him and that he reacts hypersensitively and out of proportion angrily and badly to people giving him feedback and advice. He is unwilling and too stubborn to want to change for the better it seems. I'm tired, drained, and completely frustrated with him being so impatient so many times and cutting me & other people off in communication when we're trying to help him. He was kind of mean and very severe with the way he talked. Similar to a honey badger. I wish he was a more gentle, supportive, positive, and empathetic person. Anyways, some of the things he said and did have really devastated me this year and this week. I'm very depressed and feel very sad and down. I also feel depressed because I feel like I no longer can go to a discussion forum I used to post on a long while back. I don't feel comfortable going back there. I had some support there, but I feel like one person took over and took advantage of me helping her sometimes and used information I gave her for her benefit and advantage. She also was with my ex-boyfriend for a while. I don't feel comfortable going back on that discussion forum and I was a member there since 2011. I feel like I had to give up some things and also places where I had support because some people have hurt me and I feel used and taken advantage of. So, it looks like I won't be going back on that site for a long time, if ever. I'm too traumatized to go back. And I feel numb. I sometimes feel like many of the things I took time to build since 2011 online have been knocked down or taken away. I just feel depressed just thinking about it. I worked hard for what? Anyways, yeah, I feel very sad and depressed. You recorded this video in 2012. I hope you are doing better in 2015. I think a lot of people can relate to you from this video you shared. I wish you well and hope things are going fine for you now. Thanks for sharing, and have a nice weekend.
***** I agree. Thanks for taking the time to respond. I wish you better days and well in life. Thanks for your empathy. Have a nice weekend. Take care!
I feel the exact same way as u too.. Anti-social day by day, avoiding ppl.. knowing the fact friendship never lasts.. I recently lost a good friend.. Just so lost and confused. Death thoughts always come to me. Just duno what to do with my life..Can't recall the last time I was even "happy".
I am totally on board with Deal with Cats (I'm currently sick and have all three of my cats sleeping next to me in my big bed)-- honestly though, I would seek therapy and maybe start attending AA meetings-- for me, when I was in my 20s I was very emotional, fearful and would seek solace through alcohol, meds and restrictive eating (the opposite of what your doing)-- I got sober at 27 and man it has been a journey-- it all comes down to self respect-- when you can learn deep self respect you will start to care about what you put in your mouth-- you only have one body..
Mate dont let anyones feelings or fears of peoples views of you stop you from doing what you want to achieve , i used to be like you but now im happy because im doing what i want to do, be fearless ,dont listen to the sheep that give you grief. Dont follow the heard the fact you havent been happy... Use it as extra determination and tell yourself you going to do what you need to do to become Happy. i wish you all the best mate!
let me tell you something young man, you are not the only one. So you are not alone. I was really fat like 340 3 months ago pound and now 218 pound. no one tell me to work out and burn fat. I did it myself every day working out for 2 hours and I still need to burn more and I will not stop tell I have the body I want. so go a head and do it!!! I had depress all day long every single day. Now, I'm better, tho I feel low because I don't think I'm handsome, who cares. But you have a nice face (no homo) just burn fat and you will see. I'm telling you bro. Get over it! you already lost 80!! that's amazing bro!! hold your head up man!!!!
I understand you so much.. I was anorexic because I wanted to be in control, but anorexia was controlling me. People like us who are depressed need stability or at least control over something. I'm still struggling now, but we can get through this.
hi I just want to tell you I completely relate with how you feel. And that you are stronger person than many people probably realise. you might think that is to some degree negative thing but actually that's what makes you special, meaning you will go further than anyone else to get what you truly deserve. and I feel the same, I have toxic shame (look it up on RUclips), I have depression, eating habits, chronic stress, I feel inadequate/insecure, shame, sleeping problems, chronic worries you name it. I have the whole lot, you name it I highlu likely have it too.
Hang in there I suffer with depression too I tell myself every day just one day at a time that's all I could do when I try to stay positive but it's really hard for me I've been having lots of suicidal thoughts and it's really hard but I would praying for you keep your head up and I love you
Hey, I just wanted to you to know that you've inspired me. To get up and start over again. It has truly impacted me especially in my current situation and I truly appreciate you posting this video and putting yourself out there, I wouldn't have had the guts. Oh, and just so you know, it's doesn't matter what people think, if they don't take you seriously, they probably aren't worth talking to anyway. Just work with what YOU desire and most importantly have a healthy body!:) I think that's most important. P.S: you have a beautiful soul! Thanks again! For posting this! Onward!:D hehe
ur so perfect.... I have depression and its really hard with everyone wanting something and not loving me for me, and no one being there for me and no one to relate or be comforted by. so I know how it feels, but everything is gonna be ok. I shouldn't be talking though because I havnt had a good day in a long time and I just wanted to let u know that ur gonna be ok and to me weight doesn't matter because ur perfect being u and don't listen to the haters.
You can do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're an amazing guy, you are in control, and you will win. We all believe in you because you are so worth it. You really are. Do me a favor, and keep your head up. I know there is greatness to come from you!
You sir, are a good person. It really takes a special kind of person to comment on a video like this behind no face and no name. Good on you. All I am able to do is put myself out there without sitting behind a mask. Screw me, right? Good on you. Lots of blessings to you and yours.
Your not alone, nomatter how alone you feel :( things are always changing, try to enjoy every moment something good happens, any little thing, the things we can't change? what can we do? but we can take in as much happiness as we can get, enjoy sleep, food, watching movies, talking with people, killing time online, and things have to change sometime. things are always changing
Youre everything i needed to hear. I too am overweight and out of control and so upset feeling so hopeless. I need support to - we should have an online support weight group. I think we need to be fearless and supported - without support i have failed too many times to count and i tbink thats why we're feeling bad. We just need support and we deserve it - not everhyone has the support they need.
I'm feeling feeling depressed right now. And I want you to know that after I feel better after watching this and finding that I'm not as alone as I thought so thankyou
Hey man, I've been depressed since I was 11 or younger and I'm 18 now. I'min my first year of university living away from home. I have emetophobia (fear of being sick) and severe anxiety which makes me nauseous... I also get very homesick, and I'm about to go into finals and exams etc. I can't study, sleep, or eat properly because of my depression. Usually, I just sit in my room and cry the whole day. It's hard to watch your life fall apart with little you can do to help. But listen, all we can do is persevere. Tell your mum straight that you want to control what you eat. Maybe start doing 5 minutes of exercise in the morning when you wake up everyday. This will give you endorphins and make you feel good and might help start your day the right way. Your mum will understand i'm sure. Also, you have a great head on your shoulders and the way you think is really good. People ARE watching. People ARE listening. We are out here to support you and the millions of others struggling with life. Good job man, you can do it. Continue. Stay strong.
I hope you have started feeling differently about yourself, and better. You are not alone in feeling this way, depression is an evil happiness depriving demon, and you can get out of it, but the first step is to believe you can. I think sharing a video like this was a very courageous thing to do, ignore mean comments as they will always be posted on most videos, regardless of what they're about Please keep your head up and remove people who are not helping you with your goal, life is a gift and you can choose whatever you want to do. Peace and best wishes, :)
I’m lonely my self and very depressed. I want to start my life again but I can’t. You can do anything that you put your mind into. Wish you all the best in life keep pushing foreword.
Hello, I hope you're doing fine at your schedule. I want you to know i've seen your video and that you're not alone and whatever you're doing right now is important I understand that you want to people to see you and understand you but the world is fucked up, people only care for those who are "talented" and good looking, while we are here secluded at our room because if we get out we'll be instantly judge by others. Keep doing what you're doing, i know i'm 3 years late but i hope you're not feeling hopeless anymore and i hope you achieved the success you wanted. Stay strong.
you look like the type of kid I would really hang out with. I was an alcoholic for years and a drug addict also but I overcame all that and of course I have my good and bad days but I have found hope again. you just have to believe
I know I am late and all but here’s my opinion: I have the same problem, I truly am a fat hopeless person (not saying you are one) I can’t control my health nor my energy I always try to hang on but it keeps getting worse, you are not alone I am just like you and remember that Ted.
You are a success and deserve to be happy irregardless of what you eat or weigh. Take a walk if your able to daily. It helps me keep the weight down and in turn will keep your mental state in check.
please read this .. am only 15 years old as a young boy , I should be in shape but Am not am a Fat person I feel fat even in the mirror I tell my self '' why do you look like this '' ? I don't feel comfortable with the way my body is , I tried to hard to lose weight but I can't and I don't let it bother me I don't let it get in the way of relationships , but my friend you need to learn to accept the way you are , if you can't love your self then who will ? nobody else but you 😔 I had to learn that the hard way , I feel ugly and fat but am happy .. 😊 your never alone , am here for you we all are 😊
Stay strong man I'm sure there's a light at the end of the tunnel and there's always people there for you all around you pursue your dream God made you who you are for a reason show the world who you are stay positive and don't give up life's too short to be depressed. : )
"For I know the plans I have for you" declares the Lord "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you hope and a future" Jeremiah 29:11 i understand what you're going through I'm going through some of those feelings myself but stay strong, and look into that verse, it's helped me out more than I ever could have imagined
I feel u, I have always been in shape and always been able to ear what I wanted and had girls, almost any but I'm depressed also and do not even know why. U can fix what u have through a doctor, had a friend who was like u. He's totally different now, they tied his stomach, he's healthy, he has always wanted to be just not called fat. I know u can fix this with that, it took away the thought of food, he just eats what makes him feel go, I wish I just had this problem but I can't even figure out mine, good luck bro
You should never be sorry for feeling the way you do. It's part of being human. We all feel down at time, some more Han others, but we all go through those days. Keep your chin up!
I support you and if your looking for advice mine is try writing down anything you feel, see, hear, etc I used to think it was crazy until I tried it and just let my thoughts flow on the page.
I am plenty of years late for this video, and I wish I would’ve found this sooner. Yet again, if I would have found it sooner I may have not understood. So I guess now is a better time for me to discover this video. You are probably living much better now, and living life to the fullest. But, I still want to tell you this. No, I don’t know you. No, I never went through your situation. I can’t say that I understand. I can’t say that I know how you feel. But I can say that you will make it through this. Yes, everyone hits a depressive stage in their life. But you can make it. You can get past any obstacle in life. That dark tunnel does eventually have an end. It may take years and years to reach, but the tunnel will end. No, the depressive thoughts won’t go away forever, but yes, things will get better. And yes, you will make it. Stay strong dude
Hey man. Just dropping a comment to say I’m here and it’s ok. I suffer with weight issues as well but with under eating, I know it’s hard when it comes to food in general. I hope you’re doing better now. I admire how you ended the video by saying you’ll try again tomorrow. Things rarely change if we don’t put in effort, and seeing you take on this challenge I can see you’re trying.
Thanks for sharing, you have to stay string, we are your support grouo. I just subscribed to you channel. I'll be waiting for more updates, sending you lots of love!!!!
Just tell your mom what you want and what you think is best for you. You need to figure it out with her. I think you're an amazing person and you're trying so hard, you've come so far and there's no reason to cry :). Look at all you've done already! With that you can just slingshot yourself into a bright future! :)) Stay cool man, you're not alone!
Since 2018 I’ve been full on depressed apart from summer of 2020. Can’t do anything without being judged cause of my appearance which fucking sucks. Hope you’ve found peace tho bro
I know you made this video a long time ago, but I am here, today, listening. I'm not sure what relevance my words would have to your life, right now if I were to make a personal response to this video, or even that you want a (semi-anonymous) shoulder/ear. I think it always helps to have a network of people to reach out to. If you want to just start a conversation, I'll respond. You can ask me anything, talk about anything you want, day or night. I got ran over by a Jeep, (it's actually funny), so I am pretty-much stuck at home other than a few small trips out. Your message really touched me, punched me, actually. I'm a pretty good listener. Just message me. If not, no worries, I really hope you're seeing a nice roller coaster drop into the bright sunlight at the end of that tunnel!
So many assholes feeling great.
So many sensitive angels feeling blue.
This is one fucked up world.
So frustrating. So confusing. So humiliating.
Grow strong brothers and sisters!
Fight! Never give in! Never surrender!
Turn your Pain into Will. And turn Will into Determination.
And Determination into Action!!
Your pain is your power! Remember this!
YOUR PAIN IS YOUR POWER!!!
You can move fucking mountains if you set your mind on it!
Inquisitive Chimp ღ
Ok rocky balboa, settle down...

You have described just how I feel . I agree with you about talking with your mom . That is very important. Bless your heart . Your future is ahead of you .So , there is so much hope for you . Concerning myself I don't feel much hope . I do understand.
Stay strong you're not alone. ❤️
Are you a believer in Jesus Christ?
Yes, Satan is with you. RAAAARGHH.

Why People just Bullying. You can change it at all but what want they Do change their personality? they'll never. Bullies are the biggest mothefu** on earth. hate it.
+Deal with cats I really never reply to comments. Yours touched me. I know that you posted this months ago, and I'm jst reading this now, but mate everything is going to be okay. I became okay. I'm still not skinny, but I've learned that life is way too damn short to waste being in a bad mood. Love yourself fully and truly, and then you'll get used to the feeling and realise that's what people in your life have for you. Keep your head up! Keep kicking ass! Keep giving it 100% and you'll move mountains. Contact me privately through Google+, I'd love to have a chat with you.
+Ted Linden you uploaded this video in 2012 .How are you now?
+Ted Linden i feel depressed all the time and ive tried every thing you imagine to overcome it but still the same im a fraid i will commit suicide .
Hey man wasup
I want to die.I'm going through the same thing!its like your trapped in a cage.the cage is this world and there seems no way out.ppl tell you not to self pity but u can't hide too long from pain.I hate every one! But ppl like u I really appreciate cuz ur a mirror of me even
Yeah, I know the feeling... Damn, all this people being assholes or just plain rude and all the bullying in general... Plus the rap and abuse, so I get where you're coming from. :) I am here for you if you ever need me :)
I am here if you ever need someone :)
Don't suicide
I also want to die... And i know exactly what you mean about feeling trapped :(
lovely lion Even though you want to, you shouldn't. I can't stop you, and I do not know your history.. But I am basically homeless, I lost my family, I get bullied and beaten throughout my life, smashed into the ground, and I will always be here for you
awwe i hope you can get better. you are so sweet and very handsome and seem like you have a great personality💕stay strong through this storm. your just a character in their bad part of their story. things will only get better if you let it. make your own umbrella for this rain and don't use anyone else's.
So tired of being alone and I am in college too. I don't know what to do anymore.
I know exactly how you feel 😊 you feel hopeless like I did.
I was in college and felt bitterly frustrated, I had anxiety, panic attacks, depression, I lost and gained a lot of weight. I also just really hated my colleagues, I knew I just did not belong there.
In fact If I remember correctly fact I posted the exact same thing on RUclips earlier this year. Basically here is my advice, see if you can arrange with your parents if you can work from home, you will then take away any feelings of resentment being in college. I know college is a horrible experience. but hang in there, be strong, look after yourself. no matter how you feel or how far down the rabbit hole you aee, try and keep your head up, think positively as much as you can. it's tough I know. see if you can have a separate quiet room to work I ln or work from home (what I did). this way you will remove any negative connections with college environment whilst keeping on track with your work and progress. if anyone is at home to help ask for support.
I am saying this because I felt the exact same thing, I felt alone and felt resentment. I am doing this to help anyone who's going through the same thing, it's not at all easy. in the long run you will only feel drained and exhausted/fatigued. I hope I can help people out of there situations and hopefully avoid how I felt in college. I am in the same boat, don't worry.
Tommy Chappell Thank you so much for reaching out to me. It's so relieving to know that I am not alone. I always wondered if there was something wrong with me because I had a hard time fitting into the college social scene and everyone seem to find their own niche on campus. One thing I realized is that there is so much fake people in college and most are clickish meaning that they are not willing to allow any outsiders to join their group. I will be done this semester after I complete all my finals and I am surprise that I have managed to make it through the whole semester considering that I have to go through long periods of loneliness and depression. I am glad to know that I have at least survived and basically almost done with my degree.
+SChome100 The one thing I learnt is that no matter how personal you may feel the situation is to you, you are not unique in feeling this way. Also I know exactly what you mean by fake people haha, they just have different outlook/background to you. I also felt kind of disregarded by these people, it's like they are from planet Mars and you earth. but like you I am in my last week's of college too.
I think it’s just not meant to be for us. I have tried to change my situation but it doesn’t change. Talking about your moms I think this is where it starts for most of us. We just hate ourselves so much because of the toxic conditioning by our parents. (Please note it’s no one’s fault just life).
Don't cry man, you'll make me cry ;(
I'm depressed
Forever Alone k
hang in there friend...we do feel your pain...and you are not alone....good luck to you...
I have felt this way for like 3 months straight and now I have gotten a box with a lock on it, I taped a notebook on the inside and I rip out a peice of paper when I feel depressed and I write... I write how I feel, I write these things cause I have no one... No one... No one to talk too... Writing these things get them off my chest...
I know im a complete stranger but you are welcome to talk to me
Lujayn Aljumaley i feel the same but why, do not know, nothing seems good, want to commit suicide, i kept myself alone. don't feel like to appear in front of anyone. why people hurt me when i do good to them, they even understand me a fool.
Would you like to talk in private? Sometimes a stranger is the best helper they have been for me many times, stay strong x
yes sure, but will it be a solution for me and him too?
i feel u bro just keep strong and put god first
Man, today is probably the most depressed I have felt in my entire life. I was at work and couldn't survive in there. I just bounced without telling anyone. I felt so much better once I left. I don't get myself at all. I think I just hate people but I just don't know cause I also enjoy some people's company. I feel like I would be much happier if I just learned how to fake smile at people. Seems like everyone is doing it anyway.
Last January I felt exactly like you.... Every thing was running backwards and I could only see dead ends. But today, life is better. I'm finally making good grades, and found someone who loves me. Life has gotten better, and the sad parts I try SO hard to make better. Take things simple, step by step, and you'll get on the right track!
I know how you feel about thinking you need a support group. I feel the same way- I'm struggling to fix my diet, get more exercise, be more social and in general just improve my life. But it is so damn hard. I feel like when I'm doing things for other people or doing things under real-time pressure I'm a badass, but anything I try to do anything for myself when left under my own devices I just can't stay focused, stay consistent. It's so frustrating. Without someone kicking me in he ass, I'm helpless, and it's easy to feel worthless when feeling helpless.
It's been a few years since you posted this, so I hope everything's working out for you, mate.
I'm depressed but this video made me really extra sad
Same D:
well, seeing this make me feel the same as i am right now and how i've been since so many years ago, with depression. It's incredible that you say that, you are beautiful to me and the people that criticize you have problems too and most of the time they don't know what they're talking about or saying to people, but anyways is hard to repel them away from your life. I've felt like you because of the thought that i know i've gained weight too and words can't explain the pain and the awful way that feels.. but let me tell you that you truly truly are beautiful and i'd have loved to be just like you, i really do.
There are so many others who are similar to you, and feel that no matter how much they try, they can't seem to achieve anything. Many are depressed because they are lonely, they feel worthless, or guilty about life events. Let me tell you this, if you put your mind to it you can achieve great things. I can tell that you are full of potential and are a great person. Dont give up!
Hey man, I'm sorry your going through a rough time. I understand how you feel, I feel the same way. I hope your feeling better. Depression really is a pain. Just know that we are always here to help you out, and to listen to you. We are here in your corner and we are here to help you out. You can vent as many times, and we'll always listen. You are loved so much my friend, and I am so proud of everything that you do! Keep up the great work my man, and know that you are loved!
Thank you so much for this gahd it sucks to feel depressed. I am bipolar and currently struggling with depression, I totally feel you bro. Things will get better for us.
just stumbled across your video today because I've been feeling down lately for a number of reasons.. uni, work, friends.. and I just want to say that there are people out there, my self included, that genuinely care for your well being. hope you are doing well and made it in to university. Bill
Okay i just wrote a realy heartfelt comment that was just deleted...i understand how you feel. All these unanswered questions and it just makes me angry at those with no answers or who are just overlooking all of this. Its so sad nobody ever understands so i just want you to know i do. Those who dont think its so easy too haha "just be happy" like its that easy. i cant be there physically but you know.. And i just want to give you a hug >.< other people crying makes me want to cry
I have to acknowledge the amount of courage you have for sharing this video, I cant even speak on my depression. Stay strong and good luck
We support you. You are not alone. Thank you for being real and for being human xx
It helps me to see this. I thought I was the only one. I was thinking about hurting myself, but now I'm sure I'm not alone and I can be ok.
With me and i became depressed so always stay positive and keep ur head up high and see the light of day this is what my dad taught me
I had the opposite, i was depressed cus I had nothing to eat growing up. Stay strong brother, I know what is like.
This is exactly how i feel bud! Life is crap I hate it! But im trying to fight through it even tho feels like I'm losing everyday but I'm not giving up yet! So stay strong mate you will get through it!!
I'm so sorry that you're going through something like this, I really feel for you :( and i really hope you find the strength inside. But you gotta realise you're actually so in control of how you feel and you should never attach how you feel to what your external is , don't ever give up, i know there are going to be points in your life where you feel like nothing, but try to recognise the bigger truth thats out there xo
Dude I'm three years late but I watched this video because I myself felt the same way, I saw so much of myself in you and was immediately in tears when I saw how much pain you were in. I hope you went to uni and had that life you dreamt of, I'm 25 years old and have done that stuff now, and I can see you are a very smart, kind and lovable person more than deserving of everything all of us want out of life. My thoughts are with you dude and I wish you the very best of luck!
I know exactly what you're going through. I've been depressed lately mostly because I've been searching for a "very" good job and it seems like I haven't been getting anywhere. Keep your head up, I've also been there with the weight thing. If you ever need to talk i'm always here for you to lend a kind ear.
Don't worry we'll always be here and I totally understand your feeling. I'm 13 and I've attempted twice. I used to weigh a lot and then when I got made fun of I stopped eating. If someone is upsetting you, just say so! Don't be afraid to say "hey I'm watching my weight and I would feel more comfortable if I could make my own food" don't be afraid. We're here.
I can empathize with you. I don't have eating or weight issues. But I do relate to how you were feeling at the time of this video. I feel very depressed, down, lousy, sad, numb, feeling the blues, etc. I also feel like there is no light at the end of the tunnel. I think this is the most down I've ever felt in my entire life - the lowest of the lows. It's gotten to the point this week that I'm trying to schedule my first ever Psychic phone appointment. Yeah, yeah, many people are skeptical of Psychics, but right now I feel so lousy and down that I'm willing to be openminded to try something new. Just one Psychic reading. I want to hear something positive - something to give me hope and to give me reason to look forward to something later this year or in the future.
I feel very depressed and lousy by what an ex-boyfriend and a female friend did for months this year. I also feel very down, sad, and depressed from what the ex-boyfriend said in one e-mail. He wrote some soul crushing, harsh, severe, devastating, truly hurtful things I've never experienced until now. He really depressed me with some of the things he wrote. I keep on replaying some of the things he wrote over and over in my head. He was way too harsh, severe, and brutal. There were parts he wrote that seemed nasty and mean, too. A person can be honest, but sometimes there is a thing as bad, disrespectful, and unclassy honesty. I also think he is too stubborn and set in his ways and doesn't listen or is unwilling to listen to feedback and advice people give him and that he reacts hypersensitively and out of proportion angrily and badly to people giving him feedback and advice. He is unwilling and too stubborn to want to change for the better it seems. I'm tired, drained, and completely frustrated with him being so impatient so many times and cutting me & other people off in communication when we're trying to help him. He was kind of mean and very severe with the way he talked. Similar to a honey badger. I wish he was a more gentle, supportive, positive, and empathetic person. Anyways, some of the things he said and did have really devastated me this year and this week. I'm very depressed and feel very sad and down.
I also feel depressed because I feel like I no longer can go to a discussion forum I used to post on a long while back. I don't feel comfortable going back there. I had some support there, but I feel like one person took over and took advantage of me helping her sometimes and used information I gave her for her benefit and advantage. She also was with my ex-boyfriend for a while. I don't feel comfortable going back on that discussion forum and I was a member there since 2011. I feel like I had to give up some things and also places where I had support because some people have hurt me and I feel used and taken advantage of. So, it looks like I won't be going back on that site for a long time, if ever. I'm too traumatized to go back. And I feel numb. I sometimes feel like many of the things I took time to build since 2011 online have been knocked down or taken away. I just feel depressed just thinking about it. I worked hard for what? Anyways, yeah, I feel very sad and depressed.
You recorded this video in 2012. I hope you are doing better in 2015. I think a lot of people can relate to you from this video you shared. I wish you well and hope things are going fine for you now. Thanks for sharing, and have a nice weekend.
***** I agree. Thanks for taking the time to respond. I wish you better days and well in life. Thanks for your empathy. Have a nice weekend. Take care!
I love you so much.
I love you too :)
I feel the exact same way as u too..
Anti-social day by day, avoiding ppl.. knowing the fact friendship never lasts.. I recently lost a good friend..
Just so lost and confused. Death thoughts always come to me. Just duno what to do with my life..Can't recall the last time I was even "happy".
I am totally on board with Deal with Cats (I'm currently sick and have all three of my cats sleeping next to me in my big bed)-- honestly though, I would seek therapy and maybe start attending AA meetings-- for me, when I was in my 20s I was very emotional, fearful and would seek solace through alcohol, meds and restrictive eating (the opposite of what your doing)-- I got sober at 27 and man it has been a journey-- it all comes down to self respect-- when you can learn deep self respect you will start to care about what you put in your mouth-- you only have one body..
+Molly Greenwood Hope you get well soon
I hope you're doing okay now.. I believe in you!! :)
Agreed, don't give up :)
You can do it, im behind you as a fellow person who faces bad situations daily. I hope you find a way to be happy.
Mate dont let anyones feelings or fears of peoples views of you stop you from doing what you want to achieve , i used to be like you but now im happy because im doing what i want to do, be fearless ,dont listen to the sheep that give you grief. Dont follow the heard the fact you havent been happy... Use it as extra determination and tell yourself you going to do what you need to do to become Happy. i wish you all the best mate!
let me tell you something young man, you are not the only one. So you are not alone. I was really fat like 340 3 months ago pound and now 218 pound. no one tell me to work out and burn fat. I did it myself every day working out for 2 hours and I still need to burn more and I will not stop tell I have the body I want. so go a head and do it!!! I had depress all day long every single day. Now, I'm better, tho I feel low because I don't think I'm handsome, who cares. But you have a nice face (no homo) just burn fat and you will see. I'm telling you bro. Get over it! you already lost 80!! that's amazing bro!! hold your head up man!!!!
Even though I don't know you that well,I'll be sending prayers your way..I feel for you and I hope things will get better in time.
Your a good, decent bloke. This world is a hard place. I hope you are feeling better now dude
I wish I had friends Im there for people emotionally
I understand you so much.. I was anorexic because I wanted to be in control, but anorexia was controlling me. People like us who are depressed need stability or at least control over something. I'm still struggling now, but we can get through this.
hi I just want to tell you I completely relate with how you feel. And that you are stronger person than many people probably realise. you might think that is to some degree negative thing but actually that's what makes you special, meaning you will go further than anyone else to get what you truly deserve. and I feel the same, I have toxic shame (look it up on RUclips), I have depression, eating habits, chronic stress, I feel inadequate/insecure, shame, sleeping problems, chronic worries you name it. I have the whole lot, you name it I highlu likely have it too.
Thank you so much for sharing your heart.
Hang in there I suffer with depression too I tell myself every day just one day at a time that's all I could do when I try to stay positive but it's really hard for me I've been having lots of suicidal thoughts and it's really hard but I would praying for you keep your head up and I love you
Hey, I just wanted to you to know that you've inspired me. To get up and start over again. It has truly impacted me especially in my current situation and I truly appreciate you posting this video and putting yourself out there, I wouldn't have had the guts.
Oh, and just so you know, it's doesn't matter what people think, if they don't take you seriously, they probably aren't worth talking to anyway. Just work with what YOU desire and most importantly have a healthy body!:) I think that's most important.
P.S: you have a beautiful soul!
Thanks again! For posting this! Onward!:D hehe
When you say you don't have control over anything it made me cry because I feel the same nothing I tried has worked it all ended bad
This is exactly how I'm feeling :(((
ur so perfect.... I have depression and its really hard with everyone wanting something and not loving me for me, and no one being there for me and no one to relate or be comforted by. so I know how it feels, but everything is gonna be ok. I shouldn't be talking though because I havnt had a good day in a long time and I just wanted to let u know that ur gonna be ok and to me weight doesn't matter because ur perfect being u and don't listen to the haters.
You can do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're an amazing guy, you are in control, and you will win. We all believe in you because you are so worth it. You really are. Do me a favor, and keep your head up. I know there is greatness to come from you!
You sir, are a good person. It really takes a special kind of person to comment on a video like this behind no face and no name. Good on you. All I am able to do is put myself out there without sitting behind a mask. Screw me, right? Good on you. Lots of blessings to you and yours.
I'm the same with shepherd's pie. Absolute favorite meal and I overdo it whenever I make it.
You are an amazing person and a handsome young man. God loves and just know you can get through anything you want to.
Hey man I really like this video. Thank you for letting me rest. I can finally relate to someone.
Your not alone, nomatter how alone you feel :(
things are always changing, try to enjoy every moment something good happens, any little thing, the things we can't change? what can we do? but we can take in as much happiness as we can get, enjoy sleep, food, watching movies, talking with people, killing time online, and things have to change sometime. things are always changing
i have been there i know how you feel believe me .never never never give up .you are not weak or crazy .you are strong and brave
Youre everything i needed to hear. I too am overweight and out of control and so upset feeling so hopeless. I need support to - we should have an online support weight group. I think we need to be fearless and supported - without support i have failed too many times to count and i tbink thats why we're feeling bad. We just need support and we deserve it - not everhyone has the support they need.
Watched this vid a couple of years ago. Hope your feeling better buddy depression is so horrible
It's going to be okay, those people have no idea what its like to be in your place, they hate and that's what there best at. Stay strong!
I know it's a long time since you posted this video. But I really appreciate to see a genuine person on RUclips. =)
I'm feeling feeling depressed right now. And I want you to know that after I feel better after watching this and finding that I'm not as alone as I thought so thankyou
I wish you all the best... Be strong and keep thinking positive and surround yourself with positive people.
Hey man,
I've been depressed since I was 11 or younger and I'm 18 now. I'min my first year of university living away from home. I have emetophobia (fear of being sick) and severe anxiety which makes me nauseous... I also get very homesick, and I'm about to go into finals and exams etc. I can't study, sleep, or eat properly because of my depression. Usually, I just sit in my room and cry the whole day. It's hard to watch your life fall apart with little you can do to help.
But listen, all we can do is persevere.
Tell your mum straight that you want to control what you eat. Maybe start doing 5 minutes of exercise in the morning when you wake up everyday. This will give you endorphins and make you feel good and might help start your day the right way. Your mum will understand i'm sure. Also, you have a great head on your shoulders and the way you think is really good. People ARE watching. People ARE listening. We are out here to support you and the millions of others struggling with life.
Good job man, you can do it. Continue. Stay strong.
I hope you have started feeling differently about yourself, and better. You are not alone in feeling this way, depression is an evil happiness depriving demon, and you can get out of it, but the first step is to believe you can.
I think sharing a video like this was a very courageous thing to do, ignore mean comments as they will always be posted on most videos, regardless of what they're about
Please keep your head up and remove people who are not helping you with your goal, life is a gift and you can choose whatever you want to do.
Peace and best wishes,
:)
I’m lonely my self and very depressed. I want to start my life again but I can’t. You can do anything that you put your mind into. Wish you all the best in life keep pushing foreword.
Hello, I hope you're doing fine at your schedule. I want you to know i've seen your video and that you're not alone and whatever you're doing right now is important I understand that you want to people to see you and understand you but the world is fucked up, people only care for those who are "talented" and good looking, while we are here secluded at our room because if we get out we'll be instantly judge by others. Keep doing what you're doing, i know i'm 3 years late but i hope you're not feeling hopeless anymore and i hope you achieved the success you wanted. Stay strong.
you look like the type of kid I would really hang out with. I was an alcoholic for years and a drug addict also but I overcame all that and of course I have my good and bad days but I have found hope again. you just have to believe
I know I am late and all but here’s my opinion:
I have the same problem, I truly am a fat hopeless person (not saying you are one) I can’t control my health nor my energy I always try to hang on but it keeps getting worse, you are not alone I am just like you and remember that Ted.
I'm in a similar position fella you are not alone. Just remember that.
It's not fake and it is not nice.
We are all here for you
You are a success and deserve to be happy irregardless of what you eat or weigh. Take a walk if your able to daily. It helps me keep the weight down and in turn will keep your mental state in check.
This video was recommended to me and I relate to you. I hope you are doing great today!
Your not alone sweetie.
Take your time, feel what you feel and know it is normal and will end like it came without you knowing why.
please read this ..
am only 15 years old
as a young boy , I should
be in shape but Am not
am a Fat person I feel fat
even in the mirror I tell my self
'' why do you look like this '' ?
I don't feel comfortable with the way my body is , I tried to hard to
lose weight but I can't
and I don't let it bother me
I don't let it get in the way of
relationships , but my friend
you need to learn to accept
the way you are , if you can't love your self then who will ? nobody else but you 😔 I had to learn that the hard way , I feel ugly and fat
but am happy .. 😊 your never alone , am here for you we all are 😊
I'm so sorry you feel like this I hope you know you are not alone

I am very sad, thank you for your company
"For I know the plans I have for you" declares the Lord "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you hope and a future" Jeremiah 29:11
i understand what you're going through I'm going through some of those feelings myself but stay strong, and look into that verse, it's helped me out more than I ever could have imagined
Fuck you and your Bible verses
awe. dude. stay strong. you're amazing 💕💕💕
I feel u, I have always been in shape and always been able to ear what I wanted and had girls, almost any but I'm depressed also and do not even know why. U can fix what u have through a doctor, had a friend who was like u. He's totally different now, they tied his stomach, he's healthy, he has always wanted to be just not called fat. I know u can fix this with that, it took away the thought of food, he just eats what makes him feel go, I wish I just had this problem but I can't even figure out mine, good luck bro
You should never be sorry for feeling the way you do. It's part of being human. We all feel down at time, some more Han others, but we all go through those days. Keep your chin up!
I support you and if your looking for advice mine is try writing down anything you feel, see, hear, etc I used to think it was crazy until I tried it and just let my thoughts flow on the page.
I am plenty of years late for this video, and I wish I would’ve found this sooner. Yet again, if I would have found it sooner I may have not understood. So I guess now is a better time for me to discover this video. You are probably living much better now, and living life to the fullest. But, I still want to tell you this.
No, I don’t know you. No, I never went through your situation. I can’t say that I understand. I can’t say that I know how you feel. But I can say that you will make it through this. Yes, everyone hits a depressive stage in their life. But you can make it. You can get past any obstacle in life. That dark tunnel does eventually have an end. It may take years and years to reach, but the tunnel will end. No, the depressive thoughts won’t go away forever, but yes, things will get better. And yes, you will make it. Stay strong dude
Death Metal my friend. The best stress relief. It's not emo its therapy
Hey man. Just dropping a comment to say I’m here and it’s ok. I suffer with weight issues as well but with under eating, I know it’s hard when it comes to food in general. I hope you’re doing better now.
I admire how you ended the video by saying you’ll try again tomorrow. Things rarely change if we don’t put in effort, and seeing you take on this challenge I can see you’re trying.
You are such a beautiful person cheer up sweetheart
Stay strong . Eventually it will pass . And remember You are not alone
Thanks for sharing, you have to stay string, we are your support grouo. I just subscribed to you channel. I'll be waiting for more updates, sending you lots of love!!!!
Be strong bro. Keep your head up. I'm not quite sure what you believe but my faith in Jesus Christ keeps me grounded in times like these!!!!!!
Just tell your mom what you want and what you think is best for you. You need to figure it out with her. I think you're an amazing person and you're trying so hard, you've come so far and there's no reason to cry :). Look at all you've done already! With that you can just slingshot yourself into a bright future! :)) Stay cool man, you're not alone!
Stay strong! Try not to get yourself down, because through this determination to better yourself, you will happiness. I wish you nothing but the best!
*find
Since 2018 I’ve been full on depressed apart from summer of 2020. Can’t do anything without being judged cause of my appearance which fucking sucks. Hope you’ve found peace tho bro
I know you made this video a long time ago, but I am here, today, listening. I'm not sure what relevance my words would have to your life, right now if I were to make a personal response to this video, or even that you want a (semi-anonymous) shoulder/ear. I think it always helps to have a network of people to reach out to. If you want to just start a conversation, I'll respond. You can ask me anything, talk about anything you want, day or night. I got ran over by a Jeep, (it's actually funny), so I am pretty-much stuck at home other than a few small trips out. Your message really touched me, punched me, actually. I'm a pretty good listener. Just message me. If not, no worries, I really hope you're seeing a nice roller coaster drop into the bright sunlight at the end of that tunnel!
