    I have an autoimmune disorder, chronic illness, and severe depression bc of it all. I have spent the last few years on my couch completely vacant. I used to do a lot. I have had my poetry and photography published in the past. I wanted to make short films but never did. I lost all desire in life. These videos, the messages, and your reactions have really been helping me. Thank you for doing these.

    Chinchilla's first line is "sertraline, and a sip of serotonin" - I broke out in tears when I heard that. Very relatable.

    Can anyone else literally not stop thinking about this man's music. I can't get enough of it if I'm not listening to anything I can find he does on Spotify or RUclips to watching others having such emotional reactions similar to what I have, man it's powerful stuff . Ren deserves a movement.. it's such a profound creative expression of ones self in such an articulate understanding relatable emotion of art. Rens range of topics an his ability make his music emote is unparalleled. chinchilla is dope to but I have a hankering that wildly talented an creative people tend to work with people they see are cut from atleast the same type of fabric lol love your reactions they're one thee most authentic out there. Seems the older I get that's all I want I crave authentic real people Which would explain why NF an Ren are my two favorite artists... I had a thought today about how cool it would be to have NFs Fear an Evil Rens characters do a Collab an intertwine those two characters in a dark dynamic 🤯🤯 something tells me it'd be brilliant lol have a blessed day sir. Sorry that's so long lol

    I'm really glad you reacted to this one and enjoyed it, most reactors seem to be skipping it for some reason. This is another one of Ren's songs that really resonates with me and I enjoy seeing other people enjoy that. Thanks for your reactions.

    • @IratePuffin
      @IratePuffin Год назад +5

      Probably because a lot of reactors prefer his rap. Idk… I’m even guilty of skipping it for awhile. Anytime I hear a new artist I love I have a tendency to avoid diving into their catalog for fear I’ll hate it. Lol I know, I’m weird.

    @margaretc5679 Год назад +3

    Something I didn't notice until just now... the lights flicker just before he enters that space. And then they flicker again before Chinchilla comes into frame and begins singing. It's like they're entering another dimension. Durint the first verse he says "I" and then switches to "We".
    The tiny details and nuance in his videos leave so much to discover even after multiple views!

    I’ve heard this song so many times, and it still brings a tear to my eyes. I never went the medication route, but I buried my feelings with a great big smile and bottling up Emotions can be just as deadly as masking them with medication I had to come to realize I don’t have to be the strong person and it’s OK if I break down, I’ve been through a lot and it’s only made me stronger and who I am today and if I can use my pain to help others that is medication to me.

Top this off by falling head first down a ravine that damaged my C3 and C4 limiting my mobility. The main issue is trying to do therapy for one problem aggravates the others.

I have also been recently hit with lots of depression and anxiety and they have been putting me through all these different meds to try to find the one that works, meanwhile I feel like I am losing it sometimes. Watching your reactions helps me tons. It’s my therapy and I just want to say thank you! I’ve also got to say that Ren is a beast. I am so glad he has been found for the masses.

    That they had the foresight to choose the location not just for it's visual ambience, but also because it's natural reverb falloff speed is perfect for the tempo. When she pauses at the end of the music for the gentle outro.. Spot on, wonderful link between audio and visual.

    Cliff, I absolutely love how real and raw you are on your channel! I was real upset and sending emails to the RUclips contact us thing complaining that they were taking you and your channel down when you were helping so many people!!!! I actually received a response from them last week assuring me that your channel was still up and running lmfao. I usually don't speak about this in public forums because I don't like burdening other people with my issues. But this particular reaction you were talking about big pharma and the doctors and the switching of medications and I am a recovering opiate and heroin addict. I'll be six years clean this June 24th, in the last five and a half years I've been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder, major depressive disorder, PTSD, several traumas that I've never dealt with, from childhood upwards, severe social anxiety & panic attacks and moderate agoraphobia. (Our house burned down 13 years ago and we lost all of our pets as well as all of our belongings!!! So I have a certain fear that if I leave my house something may happen. The doctors have had me on a roller coaster of medicines for years now. The worst one was a doctor that had me on 800 mg of Seroquel a day for 5 years 🤬🤬🤬 That caused serious weight gain and fcked my blood sugar up to where now I have to take meds for that too. I was put on heart meds and NEVER TOLD that I had had a heart attack one night when I'd od'd. I found out a year later as I was reading through the medical sheets they'd sent home with me after an overnight hospital stay 😳😳 I was just a useless junkie to them, would be 1 less addict out there they'd have to deal with 🤬🤬🤬🤬
    Sorry, I didn't intend to write a book lol. But I HAD to tell you that to say this:. You saved me 2 different times!!! I haven't been able to find a trauma therapist or counselor because of where I live in Ohio.... I desperately need one!! Because I got rid of the drugs but all of the problems that were there.... Are still there!! And my demons bite hard especially in the middle of the night, when I'm up all night because I can't sleep. I now have seizures and can't drive and sometimes I just feel trapped,. There were 2 nights a year ago and a year and a half ago that I was truly close to breaking and losing the fight 😪😪 BOTH TIMES I got a bling notification on my phone about you dropping a new video!!! BOTH TIMES I went in to watch it and you were talking real shit about your struggle with addiction.... And your fight and offering that if anyone needed to talk to reach out to you. I was still carrying guilt and shame around and beating myself up daily so I was too afraid to reach out to you!!! But KNOWING you were out there and willing to help others.... Gave me a lifeline if I got to that place where it's dark in my head again. So I just wanted to let you know.... I'd either be in jail or dead WITHOUT YOU AND YOUR POSITIVITY!!! I OWE YOU my life!!! And also want you to know that if there is ever ANYTHING that I can do for you please do NOT HESITATE to ask!!! Even if you just need to talk to someone who's lived years in the dark with their demons!! I'm ALWAYS available!! Much love to you and your family!!! ❤️❤️❤️
