Having depression and anxiety is the worse. The wanting of doing well as others give you the pressure when you're considered smart , but the feeling of just pure emptiness and no drive to do anything. Is just horrible because you're constantly split between both.
Cypher Emily I relate so hard with the ‘pressure when you’re considered smart’ thing. I’m just so fed up with people (mostly my classmates) seeing my achievements as the standard and being so surprised when I get an eight or something.
Omg... that's what I'm facing right now. It's not a feeling of dissatisfaction, I just feel empty in doing things. And I hate that before I was considered one of the "smart" kids but now I'm really struggling in my new school... And I feel like other people are judging saying "Oh that's all you can do? You're such a failure"
I still do my best tho, I just cant keep up anymore and even when I get ok results... I dont feel anything anymore
Im in Grade 10 and thats legit my state right now, but is it normal?
yES
oh my god im so similar
The saddest thing is when you parents don’t understand you 😔
That's exactly what's happening with me
I'm completely screwed
The worst thing is that they are the very reason you've developed depression and anxiety sry for bad English
same :
Yeah my father thinks I should not warn my school about my hallucinations and panic attacks he thinks that they will think I'm insane so since the school was not warned I ended up having a flashback and almost hyperventilating it's annoying and upsetting
(I know I'm late)
Study for long hours, forget everything on exam day.
how about wanting to study but you're so depressed that you dont want to do anything and then hating yourself even more because you're not doing it
@@queenand37sugars68 That's much more relatable
Study each set at least twice and look at everything before exams
@@queenand37sugars68 That's not depression,but laziness.I won't really go into much detail,i'd say for me that im depressed,and i surely have reasons for it(big lack of money,friends,entertainment and having health issues),but not the type of people who just comment it on yt,claiming it is a "serious worldwide problem" and then doing nothing about it except writing yt comments about their depression.I do all i can to fix my mental state(Work out,study more,get rid of bad habits,start working even in young age and make some money,try to be more social and more),but not studying,or laying in bed all day,doing nothing is pure laziness.I started doing something to counter my depression,what have you done people?
Queen and 3/7 sugars I suffer Exam anxiety like bad.
The sad part is that when vacations finally arrive for me, I tend to loose my will to live due to the lack of productivity... I usually get so obsessed with my grades, that I end up thinking that the only thing that matters in life is to be academically good in order to have a successful life and if I'm not productive, my self-esteem just drops and makes me think I'm not productive enough...
Me too! I even feel worse on the weekends or on vacation because I'm alone with myself and I don't have anything to do
@@marie-tv7vz do sports or go in a gym
I have very high grades but i dont even have any high future dreams. I just study because i can and, like you said, i feel like i have nothing else. Might aswell you know?
Omg same T_T on holidays, i feel like i'm just useless nd have no purpose in life :/ thank god its not only me who thinks this way :"(
@@casperl8408 same i'm really confused about my future nd what i want to do :/
Lucky person, his first medication worked for him.
Chris Drewly the first meds I was put on caused severe head aches and hallucinations... it was not fun
Demonic Khri Yeah I thought they'd portray it a bit more accurately. It's a short though so I understand there's only so much you can get in to the video. My first medication just didn't really change anything while I steadily got worse. Now I'm pretty frequently changing meds. and it's been over half a year with no real improvements and just side effects depending on the medication. My current one is little to no appetite along with difficulty sleeping. probably going to be switched again soon.
I was put on Fluvoxamine for Anxiety and depression even though it's mainly used to treat OCD, can safely say for me personally it didn't help at all. It was pretty much "What would you rather; feel shit, or not feel shit?" So I stopped taking them and felt better idk, I don't think I'm going to go back to using medication, just gotta deal with everything myself.
TOY0BOY0 I was put on Fluoxetine previous to my current medication and it made me feel terrible. it increased my suicidal thoughts and I was having an anxiety attack at least once every few days, so I know how bad it can be. I've gotten through depression before without medication, but this time is pretty severe so I thought I'd give it a try. It doesn't really seem to be helping at all.
Yeah, trial and error is the only way for some people with prescription medicine unless you get lucky first try, or decide not to take the medication route.
If only we could wake up at 9am for school ..
Underrated comment
I have to get up at 6:30
@@flipox9932 yeah well I would have to get up at 6:30, but I get up at 5:00, to prepare for my day.
It's all about mentality and lifestyle, guys. Human mind is programmable.

Tell me about it 😂 I have to get up at 5:00 😥
The most unrealistic part is that he can wake up at 9am for school.
May be his first class starts after 10?
he’s in college i presume
not unrealistic.. he's just in a different schedule, I wake up at 9 for my 10:30 class so yeah xd
I literally try to avoid school and fake sleep but then I know I have to get up and I look like a horrible mess because I'm not ready for another day at school
Man,i wake up everyday at 6:00 AM to get to school before 7:00 AM
This made me cry right when the D grade came on screen. My math teacher asked me why my grades are going down, I couldn't tell her it was because of my depression. Now I feel horrible. I feel so lost. I feel gone.
Bro, i will pray for you. Jesus died istead of you and me, that we might live within joy and free from all of depressions, fears and sin. Gob bless you!
then how were you diagnosed with depression if your parents don't know?
@@camc3893 my parents did know??
Then they would know that depression causes lower grades
@@camc3893 i'm talking about my teacher?
Two types of comments here:
"This is literally me" *goes into full detail about whatever mental illness they have or think they have*
or
"HE GETS TO WAKE UP AT 9 UGH I HAVE TO WAKE UP AT 6 AM EVERY DAY NOT FAIR UGH"
ahahah true
Johnny Cash welcome to the internet
like seriously, we get it. he gets more sleep than you, get over it
Mike Hunt can I just say that I actually relate somewhat to this video, except I don't get good grades and there's a lot of other shit I have to deal with too. But my mom won't take me to a doctor to actually get me diagnosed. Cause god forbid she has a child who has some type of mental illness. So maybe some of these people in the comments do have something similar to this. You're not always right you know. And what you said it's pretty fucking douchey. You don't know how peoples lives are, or how their parents are. So don't just assume someone's making up their illness. But I get what you're saying. I personally don't like the people who are like "I'm literally so depressed" but have no idea what depression is really like or when people say they're suicidal, but when you talk to them about it, and ask "so you've thought about committing suicide" and they say "oh god no!" That's actually a conversation I had, and I'm just kinda thinking "you aren't suicidal then" it's hard to explain. But anyway, I get how you feel. But not everyone in the comment section is like that. But some people do think they have something, when in reality, they've only dealt with something so small, and pointless, yea. Now I'm rambling. Whatever, I'm sorry. Now I feel bad. I'm sorry
Mike Hunt this
why do I relate to this so hard? This is me right now. I started out pretty great and have greatly slipped. I'm now in my final year and it literally feels like climbing a gravel mountain. I met up with one of my old professors who once taught me and when she saw my current results she was shocked. She kept asking me "what happened to you? You used to be so smart!" and I honestly couldn't answer her.
Also, I have also slipped from an As and Bs student to high C and solid C student and D is considered a fail in my country.
It must have felt so hard to hear that from your old teacher. It hurts so much it makes me cry when current teachers underestimate the efforts I put in my education because of my absences and other symptoms of my mental illnesses (anxiety, a bit of OCD, bordeline personality disorder and ADD: really though combination). I feel for you. Your teacher didn't chose her words very carefully, I think: you're just as smart as you were before. The challenges are just greater, and you're now very strong and courageous for facing them. I don't think you regressed: I think you grew, even if your marks may not reflect this at the moment.
Holly Leafwell Same here ;-;
Holly Leafwell i hope you feel better stay strong 💗
Holly Leafwell Wow, your teacher should have been a bit more professional with her choice of words. It's obvious that when a student that used to get good grades starts struggling to pass there are personal problems at foot. You aren't any less intelligent than you were before!
Exactly the same here! For the first two years of uni I was fine. I was stressed, yes (who wasn't?), and at times it felt impossible but I always pulled through with good results... but now... even things that used to be very easy are a challenge. It feels as if just living takes up all my energy and everything beyond that is just too much. And honestly I don't know what to do. I don't want to drop out and disappoint everyone yet at the same time I don't know how on earth I'm gonna get through this.
damn i wish i could get up at 9 instead of 6
We are student in Asia (crying
I wake up at 5 😣
Same
That's also what I thought when I saw his clock
Damn I hope I could get up at 6 instead of 5:50 those 10 mins would make my day
Anxiety and depression is horrible. Everyone says that I have talent and that I'm gifted. I'm always pressured to do well in school but that's hard because I don't have any drive to do anything. Also, it's hard to focus when you're sad as hell and contemplating suicide 24/7. I feel like dropping out of school would be best for my mental health, but bad for my future.
Hey, I hope you're doing better now. I was in your exact situation, I can feel the pain in your every word. Try to find some creative activities that suit you. Sing, dance, draw. For me, writing poems helped me put my muddled thoughts onto a piece of paper and somehow healed me slowly but surely. I'm not fully recovered yet, but I believe we will both be fine!
this is exactly what im going through right now
i feel you, cause me too.

Be a friend with your on self.
Support is important for every challange in life.
Elitza Harrington I'll support you.
My College actually told me to come back next year because my anxiety was badly distracting me. So I'm literally stuck in my home with nothing to do all day.
Aimee Barrett do short online courses. go for walks. get fitter.
I had that too. It hardly helps, does it.
I'm from Germany and obviously not in college xD But I'm in a different situation, I should stay home until next year because my mental health is "distracting" me too much and since I can't have a job bc of that and still no therapist (working on that for TWO years now) things only get worse.
Aimee Barrett that sucks try to hang out with friends or get a day job it sucks but it usually takes my mind off it
In my country attending college isn't obligatory (except for labs and if you don't attend exams you fail) and I find myself in the same situation every so often. I would just wake up and skip uni for days and just stay in and not answer my phone or eat properly or shower . And then I would feel bad for doing so. At first I thought I was lazy but now I'm starting to realize I might have an issue but I can't bring myself to go to therapy (and I don't have the money or a supporting family from that aspect)
It's hard to stay positive in a negative world. Everything and everyone seem to be putting u down, like you're suffocating.
couldn't have put it better. This might sound silly, but I had a mental breakdown the other day because a sauce in my mcdonalds order was missing and i thought it was a sign that i should just kill myself. it sounds so dumb.
@@queenand37sugars68 no it doesn't sound dumb at all. It's the things around u that u see in everyday life, like it can't be a coincidence right? What if they're signs?
I think the worse thing about suffering from a mental illness is doing it alone. My family don't even know what I'm going through, they don't think having depression is a thing, like it's not an illness, just a mood and it will pass or whatever. It sucks
mY NAME IS sumz POWER I agree, it’s hard to act like everything’s okay when this world is so sick and twisted

Yep it stinks
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Depression as a physical object is hard to animate lol
For me, it like living in contradiction, i mean by this that, you are having or, you are accepting thoughts that not correspond to your own image of yourself, not believing in you is the worst you can do it happened to me and now im trying to do the opposite i hope all can understand it, thats how i see when i happened to me.

As yoy guys can see anxiety/ depression can affect you ANY time. It is really unpredictable. Like.. Yesterday you couldn't feel more happy and today your just... Empty. Depression/anxiety is super unpredictable. You might have been happy 7 seconds ago and now u feel like trash.
TopCutee world almost everyday there was a badmood
Nani ?! I have severe depression I skip meals and sleep in till around 10 also I have a lock of focus
I have mood changing very quicly often I feel reallt happy and then feeling really bad but it doesn't affect me at school it's only when I'm at home, that's quite strange I know hehe
Exactly
@@-Rubatosis- At the end of the day I believe lots of people actualy feel like this

thank you, fren
Thnx I really needed to hear that☺

Thank you 💙💙
It is even worst when the people around you, those who are supposed to help you with your emotional problems, doesn't want to recognize how roblematic are depression and anxiety.
Of course because they're either to self-absorbed or have been influenced by the shitty doctrine of every cry for help with depression is for attention.

MAD SCIENTIST same
I somehow found this really uncomfortable to watch
DerBoss Same
why?
Anna Does Things I feel the same, I think it's because the "illness" "ghost" thing kind of scared me, but I'm scared quite easily, and the music had an effect on me and made me uncomfortable when the character became uncomfortable, very nicely done though because it makes it easier to empathise with the character
Probably because of the music or because I can somehow relate to his situation
Must be because at the end nobody gets to help the guy, they just numbed him and have him pretend everything it's ok.
Me: thinks the mental illness is being able to hear things only through guitar sounds.
It’s sad that half the people in these comments probably self-diagnosed themselves with depression by looking shit up online and matching up with like one symptom and that shit really gives a bad image to those who actually suffer it
Brad Eats right
Brad Eats I’ve been waiting to see a comment like this
Brad Eats I’ve been waiting to see a comment like this
Brad Eats there’s a difference between having a depression disorder and being depressed.
I don’t suffer from a depression disorder in any way shape or form, but I’ve gone through periods in life where I’ve almost lost the will to live and felt a deep unhappiness for an extended period of time. Depression is a normal part of life and it can happen to anyone.
Connor Wilde congrats you just fit the description I gave. Everyone gets sad every once in a while but either you completely fucking exaggerated it for attention or hell maybe you do have depression and need to go to a doctor
Seen a couple comments saying that that this is an over simplified portrayal of depression or mental illness in general but I want to clear up that this is probably not depression.
I'm a psychology student and I have studied schizophrenia, if you rewatch with a view that the little grey thing is an auditory hallucination (voices in his head) it's a whole new ball game.
He also demonstrates another symptom called paranoid delusions, a belief that others are against him and social isolation results. His immediate improvement after beginning to take medication it pretty accurate too, antipsychotic drugs generally help , but the remaining presence of the grey bubble represents that he can't stop taking them or he will return to being symptomatic.
Just thought I'd put it out there, but take what you want from it everyone has a valid interpretation
I was thinking that too while watching this
I disagree, sometimes a specific target can work very well. Not every piece of media depicting mental illness has to generalise to the entire topic, focusing on something allows those who care for/ suffer from a specific illness something to relate to. Generalising causes the more common place illnesses more coverage, which is not a bad thing, by any means, but there needs to be a balance between specific and more generalised portrayal of mental illness.
Rock Lee the Handsome Devil of the Konoha// hmm this could be true, but I saw it as a symbolic way to represent the depression. Like that little voice in your head telling you to do or not to do something. I didn't see it as an actual hallucination.
Alyssa Ryanne of course that could also be true, I just personally recognized more specific schizophrenia symptoms than I did of depression. It is worth noting that in mental illness there is a lot of overlap between symptoms for basically all conditions.
Besides, this is just an artistic expression of someone's view of the subject, we can interpret it however we see fit.
Rock Lee the Handsome Devil of the Konoha I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought this was schizophrenia!!!
Even though I am depressed, I still meet up at school but it is more like I don’t care if I meet up in time for class, can’t focus, doesn’t give a shit about grades, feeling overly irritable and feeling either completely empty or too emotional. I hate having mood swings, going from motivated, happy, energetic back to depressed again.
try and meditate, friend
Have a magical day Stay strong, I am going through the same thing as you. Hang in there❤️
I hope you escape depression
Ah depression.. I go through it sometimes. Yet I try to think our minds and emotions are subjective and variable so why stick to it? I say to myself. This shall pass as well
All power to you. I hope that it gets better. I want you to know you are not alone and it can get better.
Everyone is depressed nowadays. It makes it seem like your own trials and tribulations are so..trivial and unimportant. "What's it matter" "I'm just another sad person"
Exactly right ? Other people have it worse than urself aswell
Da Greatest the worst part is that you think everybody has it worse, causing you to think you’re not special or it doesn’t matter to you. Really though, everybody is struggling and fighting their wars, we’re all the same.
Just cuz everyone is depressed doesn't make ur problems any unimportant. U r just as important as everyone else. If u r cut with a paper or a knife u r still cut and u need that extra help. If u ignore a small cut it will lead to bigger problems. And tbh that comparison paper and knife only exists in our head making us feel a paper cut is insignificant when we are all actually cut by a knife.
Actually I was telling myself for sooo long that I'm just wanting attention and that other people have it so much worse than me. So I got to the point were I was saying what other people normally tell people with a mental illness...
@@elenakgalaxy4110 i get that
Ever since I started school I was top of my class. I always got the best grades and I was noticeably the smartest. Then everything changed when I started middle school. In 7th grade my grades were still very good but I felt like they needed to be better and I was always stressing over it. Then my mom finally decided to get me a therapist at the end of the year and things started getting better. And later I started 8th grade. That's when the doctors diagnosed me with anxiety disorder. My grades started dropping even though I was trying my hardest. And it didn't help that my friends were complete assholes. I'm still currently in the 8th grade and I'm trying my best to get through the year without losing it. But damn, it's really hard.
Middle school was the worst period of my life. Just hang in there. You were fortunate to get a diagnosis so fast. I've had problems with my brain being all sad and anxious since 6th grade and it's taken until now to get my mom to take me seriously (10th grade) and take me to a doctor. I'm sure somebody can help you through it.
@theatre kid You need new friends.
theatre kid I’m a freshman rn and I’m facing a similar issue, which sort of started in 8th grade when I began stressing over small things more and more. I’ve always been the smart, motivated, punctual person who others turn to for help and now I’m the one who is lacking motivation, turning in assignments late who can’t help my peers anymore because of my anxiety. It’s good that your mom is supportive, mine tries to tell me I’m just lazy. But anyways I want you to know you’re not alone and not to worry too much bcus to be completely honest as long as you’re understanding what you’re learning you’re grades right now don’t matter. Save the stress for hs bcus it only gets harder, but that’s not to say what you’re going through isn’t valid bcus it completely is. All I’m trying to say is try to have as much fun rn as you can bcus you’re going to miss it next year, or at least I do.
You should do the things that gives you peace more often. Try to find what you really love.
Conclusion. You do not have any good school friends. It huts i know that.
depression comes and coughs in your face, rather accurate
Yep, it's schizophrenia.
Schizophrenics are unlikely to hurt people, they're more likely to hurt themselves, (or be hurt by others) like most other folk with mental illness.
Barbarian Mage autism isn't a mental illness.
miner johnny1211 it's actually a developmental disorder.
Barbarian Mage mental condition can apply to a lot of things and it is extremely vague. autism is a developmental disorder and even though mental condition is true, that still groups it with mental illnesses because those too are mental conditions. also yes I agree to never classify it as a learning disorder. I have Autism and I am in the 90th percentile, though it can effect learning it isn't specifically a learning disorder. but yes, you are right but it is a bit better to be specific here.
I can easily relate to this, especially in my high school experience. I used to have amazing grades, now I'm struggling to get a C+, because due to my mental illness, I was happy in life, before I went to high school, a lot of people hate me, because they think that I can't learn because I'm too mentally disabled to do so. I do go to therapy once a week
Lord of Corn I laughed but that's super mean
good joke
this similarly happened to my art in art class after social anxiety suddenly peaked, and depression came. Remember it is not that you were once good and now you're bad, or that people have just shot up in being better. It is your mental illness sucking your esteem and confidence dry, making you an obsessive perfectionist, telling you you're not "Good enough". It's so hard to go from that bottom, and when you're at your last steps you're an emotional roller-coaster expecting this "good luck" of academic achievement to not last. Just keep going to therapy, tell your therapist everything, including this. And never listen to those thoughts telling you, you now sucks. it's easy to understand its your mental illnesse's fault, but a lot harder to accept I found out. I was in your situation, I have recovered 90%, I will make it the rest of the way. You can recover from this.
Thanks for the advice 👍

(As a college student with severe anxiety and depression, I can confirm that this is a perfect representation.)
This... is my college experience. Except for the almost killing himself part. I self-harmed, and experienced suicidal ideation, but never actually tried to hurt myself badly or kill myself. I'd think of how much it would hurt my loved ones and have a meltdown instead. It was kind of freaky though. I never realized until I experienced them just how literal the term "invasive thoughts" is. Meds and therapy helped, but I ended up burning out anyway. I've had a few years to think and rebuild my confidence, and I'd like to start easing back into college to finish my degree, but honestly, I'm really scared still.
seatbelttruck Good luck! I know you can do it!
seatbelttruck I had an extremely similar experience and had to leave college due to anxiety and depression. I am now finishing my degree through Arizona State Online and I have found it to be a really great way to go back to school without all the pressure of regular college. Maybe consider alternative options like online school. You can do it!
I've done online classes before and it didn't work very well. I'm autistic too, and the lack of structure in the classes made it really hard to complete in a timely manner. It'd be great if it would work, but my track record isn't promising. I'm also a Biology major. You kind of need access to a lab for that. My plan is to start with community college to get back in the groove then move back to a university part-time. And maybe take O-chem by itself or with one elective class, because that was one of the classes that was getting me. The concepts themselves aren't hard, but knowing when to apply them is difficult even when your brain isn't already frazzled.
I wish you the best! College is daunting for anyone, but going at it with mental health problems is a whole other ball game. You are strong for doing it. Don't give up.

Anxiety and depression can't make you forget things.
RNJesus Depression makes you lose interest, lack of interest in the details of life makes you forget, and anxiety makes you distracted intellectually
Please say this to my mother..she thinks that I got bad grades just cause I don't study and when I told her that I forget and can't remember anything she went on and blamed on me saying that I never even study while I do and I really tried to get good grades but maan I just want to die.
Dude! This is an amazing animation! It shows how mental illness may never fully leave! However, it shows that you can mostly get rid of it!
As if that's how it always works...
KalaTurtle if you're struggling, seek treatment and give it time.
you can't really "mostly get rid of it". you can treat it. it is very possible to learn to cope/live with it, but there's no great way to just get rid of some parts of a mental disorder.
Aaron Schneider you can fully recover.
Aaron Schneider no. You can't get rid of an mental illness. I have a mental illness and it can never leave.

This can help with depression, wishing for shit don’t give you shit getting shit gives you shit فلافي-fluffy
My college kicked me out bc I was struggling with depression and couldn't focused on the work and skipped too many class ,I had the opportunity to got in but couldn't finished it bc of a mental illness ,it really sucks when you're unable to do the things that most people can easily do but you have to suffer from it and the worst part is people assume that you're faking it because of laziness
Connie Lee depression ain't a excuse I got bullied and I dealt with it.it gave me thick skin so I could take life more harder so it made me work harder
OG penguin you cant just say that like you know how depression is like. Being bullied is hard, sure. Growing thicker skin is relatively easy, maybe. But being depressed is a psychological and mental condition, you can't just "grow thick skin" or deal with it. Granted, i was bullied like you were and i did develop thick skin, but i also got depression, and suicidal thoughts so i know how he feels.
You cant grow "thick skin" to "block out" something when that something affects your very core now can you? Please do tell me if you can, id love to know.
Oh yeah and you saying depression is an excuse is basically how the college staff and headmaster thought of it.
Really? Did you even read his comment properly?
The Infinice its still not a excuse to skip classes. i understand what a deppression is still, skipping too many classes is a normal reason for a college to kick you out. what else should they do? let you retake the year over and over??
The Infinice God dammit, this is the reason why I'm a religious person. It's because I still have Faith in this shitty life and my religion forbids suicide. And also, yes you can have a "thick skin" and say fuck you to depression. Damn pussies always want to suicide.
EkyMamba Girls agreed even though I ain't religious
honestly, it's good to see a short film in which the mental illness is shown as persistent, but not overpowering, and doesn't vanish immediately as soon as treatment is found. mental illness takes a long time to treat, and most adults don't understand that the moment you get medication and therapy for your illness goes away, and when they expect minors to start "acting normal" immediately it really gets on most of our nerves. as a mentally ill minor, i'm happy to see something that isn't based around that thought. also, i'm glad that the character started avoiding their "friends" after getting treatment after the way they all started generalizing mental illness and putting stigma against it. and the analogy for suicide was honestly a really good way of putting it without making it too violent, i'm impressed, i would never think of any other way to put it aside from censored graphic images.
I'm in a persistent and terrible mood since I was 14, five years ago. That things evolved into a hard sensation of aware and hopelessness, and frequently dead thoughts. Don't generalize your condition, every single case is independent.
You’re so right
it??? can still be a nice short film??? if it has an important message???
nessitis Are you really sure it was a metaphor for suicide? I mean, he wakes up and lives his day-to-day life at the end
JUST LIKE THE MOVIE BEAUTIFUL MIND HAHA
The part where the negative voice knocks the phone off the table is so true. My friends are really great and they want to talk with me but sometimes I just can’t pick up the phone. Why? I just can’t. Getting better at being better though:) I watched this video a year ago and came to revisit it to see how I think of it now.
Alyssa Anyone Have it changed you? Or you still struggling fighting your own war?
Did you have schizophernia?
@@lilynguyen8447 did you had schizophernia?
I'm actually crying. Because I don't have any mental disorders to blame for my actions. I show up at school late, or even don't show up most of the time because i simply don't want to get up...like today. I am failing at everything and it's not because I'm depressed or anything that is related to that. I'm simply very lazy that I have to talk to myself to get out of bed every morning.
Just because you aren´t diagnosed doesn´t mean you don´t have any other problems than lazyness.
camzjergui You never know what might be causing your lack of productivity. If you feel that you have no control over your procrastination, and that it’s stressing you out constantly, I would recommend consulting a professional or seeking out someone to talk to.
Why don't u want to get up n why r u failing? Is it because u r lazy or u have something else going on? If u r just naturally lazy then it's okay. Do what interests u. That might help. But if ur actions changed n now u just don't like doing what u normally did that's when u need to go to a therapist. U don't have to have a disorder to feel what u r feeling too. Maybe talk to someone u trust and have a discussion about urself.
Maybe there is something that is disturbing you. It is not your fault, go to a doctor,you can be depressed.
Same problem it make you feek heavy all day even you haven't anything tiring still feel lazy and sleepy and this eating me now too i really want to get rid of this laziness but i'm not acting on it all the time i keep saying this that is my problem.....
I can relate to this so much as a university student myself with a diagnosed MDD with Social Anxiety. It is so difficult to concentrate on study without random negative thoughts keep haunting you, keeping you from having a proper sleep and pretty much ruined your whole life. I was like this man I kept enduring with the disorder,thought it would get better,that it's just nothing. I was wrong and hospitalized. I'm on a proper medical treatment now and while it didn't completely restore my whole life back, it's slowly coming back to where it should be. Life is a struggle especially for us with mental illness but please keep on hope that you will get better. Please never stop having hope.
shin- seiki i have adhd, i take pills for it but the temptations of my phone stop me from getting enough sleep and studying ;(
Have you tried getting some exercise? Exhaustion and Endorphine can help you sleep easier.
same. and I'm tired of it.. I'm always thinking my future is going to be a mess
Mr.Nature i only come back here because i see a notification under what I posted and..?? i don't understand why are you so angry about someone trying to be positive?
shin- seiki Is social anxiety even a thing? What is it like? Being scared to talk to people?
As someone experiencing this firsthand, it's incredibly accurate. Watching this makes me feel like there might be someone out there going through the same thing.
CameraShy no matter what you're going through, someone went through the same thing in Yahoo Answers in 2007
I feel the exact same way! It's comforting in a way
What can one do about it tho? Is there real medication ??????
Andre
It differs from person to person, depending on how severe the problems are and what exactly it is that's causing the problems.
For a simple example, here in Scandinavia depression skyrockets in the entire population during winter because our daylight hours hit rock bottom and some people can go weeks without ever seeing actual sunlight. The solution for many is to take a vacation to brighter countries, or vitamin D supplements for us regular mortals who can't just fly off to a sunny beach when our homeland turns into frozen monochrome shit.
Helena Nilsson I moved to USA on two months before i got into my freshmen year of high school, i had honor roll freshmen, sophemore, and first semester of junior year, all those three years i felt sad, but at the 2 semester of junior year i felt even more sad, i cut off my friends even tho i feel alone, i cut everybody off, i just live w my that and i cut him off too, senior year i was trying to do good, i dont feel any motivation to do my homework and my grades are awful, i just feel like everything is wrong.

Depression is like something inside of me telling me I’m not good enough and I’m not worthy I try my hardest to reason with myself and try to stay out of that black hole 🕳 being around supporting people helps me a lot especially devoting my time and energy to do good 😊
I remember watching this video when it first came out as a sophomore in high school, and not being able to relate. Now, as a sophomore in college, it’s scary how similar I feel to this animated person
HE GETS TO WAKE UP AT 9:00 A.M. I have to wake up at 6:40 A.M.

I love how there is no spoken dialogue
I'm in college and I can totally relate to this as I have spent one whole semester in this state. Now the end of the semester is approaching and my grades have gone down. I didn't feel any drive to do anything the whole semester. I even stopped working out. It's just as shown in the video. I would lay in my bed whole day and miss classes.But the point which needs to be highlighted in this video is that nobody is coming to help you. You have to help yourself. And I know I will rise again!
I like that this video shows that just because you are put on antidepressants doesn’t mean you will instantly feel better. Because it takes time and also it isn’t just a cure. You really have to be willing to help yourself. And even with anti depressants you can still have really depressed days.
Wish it was that simple to get help. I've been trying to get my friend diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, and every professional she's spoken to had said "you've got it, but you're too extreme for my department". So we go higher up, and again they say she's too extreme. If she's so bad, then why not HELP HER! Medication will help a hell of a lot more than doing nothing! I've ended up in hospital so many times with her before now because of suicide attempts. You're not only dragging out the suffering of a 22 year old, but it is making all of her friends, including the 19 year old depressed person trying to help her, mentally worse as we try to help our friend.
This video is the sort of things we deal with; wish the professionals realised it's not all straightjacket or hormones. 😐
Medication is a touchy thing man, the wrong one and everything goes horribly wrong, I'm not fully sure about the going higher up part but they can't diagnose a medication if it sounds like something that severe. I feel as if the medication won't do anything and your friend would just deal with the side effects if they used weaker medications than is specified.
jessstoryqueen medication only numbs you, its not a cure.
jessstoryqueen I have bpd, and for some reasons everyone is too scared to diagnose people with it, I don't really get why tho?? I went to two psychiatrists and the second one straight up said that he has to try treating me for any other possible mental illness before jumping off to bpd ( and it didn't work) lol the first doctor diagnosed me with it, it was so severe she has to give me mood stabilizers so as I don't feel anything.
Tell your friend that bpd may not be treatable but she HAS TO LEARN ABOUT IT, ask every question she can about it, know every small little detail.
That's the only way if she wants to live normal, instead of running from it like everyone else she needs to cope with it, she needs to learn when she starts to have weird thoughts about herself that it's just dissociation it will be over and she doesn't need to think too deep about it, and when she starts picturing someone as perfect she needs to focus more, it's hard ik but she has to look for one's flaws instead of idolizing him because she doesn't want to end up being heart broken.
Learn as much as you can about yourself and try to find solutions for everything whether the mood swings the emptiness, or anything: "she needs to learn about them in order to stop them when they happen or cope with him"
Meds can solve it temporary but they can't give her meds forever now can they?
She needs to treat her mental illness as a friend, embrace it and understand it rather than treating it as an enemy and only then she will be able to live peacefully.
Allie wright You're right. But most times, mentally ill patients have difficulties with work/school and social interactions. Medications might not cure, but they do help patients to cope and live their lives as normal and safe as they can. If we can't cure, the least we can do is help patients to decrease the hallucinations and other symptoms rather than leaving the patient, waiting for an alternative treatment while they're at risk of suicide/homicide.
jessstoryqueen in Irland, we have a special class for developing a Healthy personality
Still doing better than me bc at least he made it out of bed.
I don't even have the motivation to eat breakfast
I don't even have the motivation to live(2)..
Have you been feeling any better lately?
At least you have a bed
its not a competition
When I was in school, I was considered very smart. Around 7th grade I started getting bad grades. Back then I didn't understand what was wrong with me, & my parents were like 'you have absolutely no reason to be bad, we're providing you everything you need' , which my teenage mind found no argument against & I had no option but to blame myself. It didn't work out so well.
Eventually I got decent grades but life for the most part has been gloomy.
I'm in my 20s now with severe depression, realizing that my parents were in fact the reason I was always so sad.
Please listen to your kids. They will try to tell you what's wrong if you just fucking listen.
Never cut off conversations with your kids assuming you know better, because many times we don't.
I’m sorry this might upset some people. I hate when people say “I have depression.” But when you ask them they say “I’m sad”. Depression isn’t just sadness, it’s tiredness sadness emptiness.
Okay I have never said this out loud but does anyone else have this problem?
So you know one of those days. you just sometimes can't get out of bed. you are just gonna miss your class because you mentally/physically can't just leave.
While I already feel anxious, then I start to think about my friends/classmates. and of course they are wondering why I am missing the class. which may happen quite frequently. and somehow I always start to think that they hate me or think I'm being lazy (even tho I am a lazy person lmao) or get mad at me. Then if one of my mates texts/rings me I just ignore it because I'm scared they will start asking questions like "why am I not there" etc. because I'm just too anxious to answer. And when I ignore I feel like they think I'm trying to seek attention or then think that I don't care about them and it makes me even more anxious.
And the next day if I am going to attend the class, I feel really anxious because 1. what if they are going to hate me 2. what if they ask where I was and why.
I'm a mess
a Bear You sound like me.
Depression.
THIS IS EXACTLY ME OMG
I do this A LOT at my school. Whenever I have school projects, I procrastinate very badly to the point where I lose most of my points in my grades for not doing anything. So whenever the teacher calls for projects, I always sink back into my seat and watch as everyone else gets up and turns in the project. I stay quiet so nobody will notice me, and it surprisingly works every time.
And that's when the teacher calls my name while the entire room goes silent. "Where's your project?" I have to force out a reply because I've learned that if I don't say anything, it counts as disrespectful and rude and a reason to email my parents. I can hear someone snickering in the background, and even if nobody was snickering, I could still hear it. So in my head, I feel like everyone hates me because I'm a slacker. And I'll never be able to forget.
a Bear this is me and this only causes me to miss another day of school because I'm too scared to go back
I've been getting the same issue. I really want to attend class but I keep thinking it would be better if I get more sleep, my desire to sleep or not get up keeps winning out. Whenever I wake up tired, it's like I can't control myself. I'll even put coffee on my bedside table and when I wake up, I don't get up and drink it. I feel so pathetic! It's so hard to override the thought that I need or want to keep sleeping. It's like it's my subconcious taking over and thinking I'm going to die if I don't let myself sleep for 12 hours. I'm even on meds and it's been helping me get through the day MUCH better but I still have motivation problems especially this crap in the mornings!
❤️❤️ I'm not gonna give a super long example. I'm just going to say thank you. For making more people aware of the things we have to experience. ❤️❤️

The constant feeling that you're never enough and you' re replacable at any moment in everyones life even by your family , to the point that you can't see yourself in future as if you don't belong there, even in the present it felt wrong to be alive like I'm burdening everyone and I felt like everyone is starting to hating me even my siblings and parent, sometimes i felt as if they everyone I know are wishing me to die already so they can finally have a happy life without me.
This is a really well done video; depression and anxiety are crippling to certain people, like myself, for example. You want to do well in work or with your studies, you want to get up and do your hobbies, you want to go and chat with people, but sometimes you just can’t. This feeling can last from a few weeks to a few months (in my experience), and taking tablets doesn’t always work. This issue can ruin someones life, and if it’s ruining yours, like it does mine, then I’m really sorry. Truly! You’re not alone, I promise.

The feeling of being scared of low grades that would disappoint my parents and watching my friends having straight A’s while my i had straight F’s has put me into the lowest point of life while my friends told me that their grades are lower then me when they had A’s.

I've been depressed for so long I'm scared to see what will happen if I get better or seek help. I've gotten used to this but I hurt myself and want to die
YoBro Cho You should get outta there, and then you would be a step forward to being happy ^^
Demon Wolf Nobody's life is better with depression. Whether your scared to lose 'yourself' or simply think therapy/meds won't work, there's no harm or shame in trying to get help.
I just spent a week at a mental hospital after posting this. It was an amazing experience besides the circumstances. Please get help if you're like me. It's scary but you'll be happier
YoBro Cho glad you got help! You matter.
Trust me if you seek help it's going to show you're much stronger than if you sit back and let the depression get hold of you. The fact that you're considering getting help is showing you care about yourself. Its a small step but nevertheless a step in the right direction. I have hope for you
Same here... Can't concentrate, need to read a line 4-5 times to finally understand what the line means. Any advice how to treat anxiety plz?
You can't, and trust me. When you think about it too much seeking for help, it doesnt help at all. Its best to not think about it and try the work, works for me when depression hits sometimes.
And dont be confident about it, itll make you think about it even more. Personally i dont know how to cause or stop anxiety, but this is what ill think will help.

Accurate for the most part, besides getting better so quick
This video relates on such a personal level. People who don't struggle with this don't understand what it actually does to the person. You cannot help what's happening. It's not a ploy for attention or blowing off class because you're lazy. These dark thoughts start to invade your mind and they distract you. You lose your focus, and your anxiety starts growing. Sometimes you mentally/physically can't drag yourself out of bed to go to class. And then you begin to worry about your teacher or classmates wondering and asking why you aren't there. Yoy start feeling ashamed and don't want to hang out with your classmates because you're worried they'll mention it. You skip class again. And it becomes a cycle that just gets worse. Much like in this video, I tried to hurt myself too. Was in the hospital for a while. Put on medication. It helps, but doesn't solve it. Just makes slightly easier to fight. Didn't realize how literal the term invasive thoughts was until I started having them.
Dylan Holman yeah.... i feel you but i think im okay now without any med. Im not telling my friends or my mother about this but to my sister yes,its hard..it makes me want to kill myself but i tried to be ok to pretend im ok...its hard to pretend and sometimes youll see yourself holding a blade blood is falling and youre crying trying to end your life but i use to get up chin up and cope all the loneliness im going ..the lonely road im taking ..EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY TRUST ME ♥

The thing is parents never understands this until it becomes a life long problem. Especially for the children in developing countries.
The negativity and the skepticism within myself have been bothered me for all my 30 years of life so far. Everyday, every moment, for anything I am doing I have to fight with those third-party ghost who suggests me what can go wrong, what bad might happen to me or the other loved ones when decisions are made in order to do anything.
And now I am used to it. I am someone who is able to control and fight with those things without medication or any sort of sedation. But I personally know there are others who can’t and how much they suffer. It is no wonder that some of them eventually take off their own self.
So thanks for trying to raise awareness!
Anxiety and high functioning depression and ADHD combined is a setup for failure. I hate my life and I hate how relatable this is.
The Shwaznut/ Scar/Faultyspark No it is not a setup for failure, your mindset is a setup for failure. If you tell yourself you are a failure, then your issues are never going to get better. Change your mindset to something more positive. I know this is an old comment but I hope you’re doing well
I have the same mental health issues as you so I know exactly how it feels but like the comment between us says it’s all based on our mindset and it’s super hard to not think like that but slowly it might make a difference
Have you tried meds? My depression and anxiety are incredibly reduced, and help me initiate healthy things like socializing and eating well. And the cycle continues...
No its not a setup for failure. you can ask for help and you can change this
I hate my life too
I suck at studies too but luckily people around me are kind enough to hug me and love me for the person I am. I might be a failure in studies but I am not failure as a person.
Rizwan Ali Shah I didn’t even graduate from high school so don’t get yourself down
You're lucky bro
It's not about sucking up at studies,, it's about how anxiety disorder affects an already brilliant student and how it degraded him.

out of all the comments, im glad i found this one
the system where we live in is really fucked up! success is necessary but truth is only a few succed, and if you dont, you gonna feel really bad
the thought of graduating rily stroke a nerve.. yeah, that was my motivation back then, everytime I experience such invasive unwanted thoughts, I just thot i had to graduate. altho i took baby steps, and grades were from failing to just average, for me it was an improvement. i had suicidal ideation, manic episodes, worrying shit tediously that it made my day unprogressive. there were days i had to hide from everyone else even from myself, just by lying in bed and not looking at the mirror or any reflection, because, how i thot of myself. it was horrible. but i needed to graduate, so i wud stil go to class, and barely had conversation, or worse fake smile and laugh just to make them feel not weird, did not look at our restroom mirror, or evading any type of reflection.
but i have help.. also great friends that i hav been opening up to.. things are better now, not like it used to be. Intrusive thoughts and episodes are still there, however i just kinda grew up with it and hav learnd how to deal with them, of course with help. the feeling of just lying in bed part and staying away, it used to happened in long span of period, the least was 2 to 3 mos. now, 1 to 2 days - so i guess its normal now.
Fernando Aureus - I totally know what you're talking about. I struggled in school so much. The parts about lying in bed all day and not being able to go talk to friends were especially true. For me, it would usually last 4-6 days, but being on the quarter system, that one week was enough to fck my grades up. Slowly, and I mean s l o w l y over the span of literally years, I've been able to make improvements, the biggest being coming to terms with the fact that I cannot right now pull a 4.0, but I can pass my classes, and, to me, that is a huge accomplishment
Fernando Aureus Not lying. But you are not even ugly. U just think that to yourself. Stay strong keep fighting , you are not alone going to this even me but we fight. 😬😭😑✌️👍🏻
Me too. I graduated, didn’t have the best gpa, but at least I made it out. Do your best and don’t beat yourself up for it.

@dog bone there are types of schizophrenia, but most common is losing sleep and stress that can cause hallucinations to the patient, it's terrifying actually, most people can't hear what the voices say, it's just you. You alone.

Double frustrating
I think the best part about this video is that it doesn't show that the mental illness "magically goes away" from taking meds because that's not the case at all. I'm glad the creator still showed the mental illness popping up, it's just that its effect on the guy wasn't as strong.
Kelly yeah me too! people keep saying “why doesn’t it have a happy ending” but it kinda does! i love the realism portrayed through that ending
i like how this not only illustrates the stigma other people have against the mentally ill, but how that stigma affects the person suffering from the illness as well. well done animation! have hope you guys im proof that this stuff is overcomable
