- WARNING - LONG VIDEO. Sorry i've been 'distant' of late - this video explains why and whats going on. Also my honest thoughts about my channel and brands plus some hard topics for me to talk about. Dont worry, i'll get my shizzle together and be back to cocking about in no time.
Peace.
PS. Sorry for 720p but the file was massive at 1080 and my internet is steam powered clockwork.

Hang in there Baron, I remember watching Svengali after he went through his divorce and the struggles that came after. I don't want lose another good motovlogger. If you come to Australia on your trip there's an S1000RR here waiting for you to ride :)
thanks amigo :)
My 2 most fave vloggers in one comment! So gutted when you rode straight past me Baron few weeks ago in B***ley - only realized it was you after you went past. i was too busy dicking around on the pavement. Wednesday night Loomies/Alton Cafe? Brave video and you clearly have lots of support. Plenty of people will be able to relate in one way or another. Just do what you gota do.
RWT, really enjoy your vids and love to attend one of your rides in Oz one day :)
BaronVonGrumble post how to buy stickers. When a man is down, his "friends" are there to purchase more awesome stickers to pick him up!
***** keep your head up bro, youre a boss. thank ya
Yeah we need a video with tom and baron
Major respect for making this video, even though you didn't owe it to anyone. Keep your head up high, ignore the haters, and focus on yourself. Let me know when you decide to start planning a trip and I'll join you for the US portion if you come here!
I would happily drive a state over to do the same!
mad respect to the pseudo family going on here with the outreach from motonosity. wow.
In for a California ride if you come out here. :) And really no trip to the US is complete without coming to California.
Watching this in 2022 and I couldn’t be happier for Baron, absolutely phenomenal what he’s achieved and a true inspiration to everyone going through tough times to hang in there
I’m watching this 6 years on in COVID-19 times and hopefully we’re turning a corner in the mental health issues. 🤞
Loved every video you have uploaded mate.
Hopefully you get everything sorted out with no further drama.
Love ya
I love ur vids :*
I'm really sorry to hear it dude - I was in a dark place a couple of years ago when my Mrs and I split. It's the reason I started vlogging and I genuinely believe that it saved my life. My son was stuck in the middle too, and he's only 4 years old but I see him every weekend and we have lots of fun together. It's not easy fella and it's horrendous to go through but believe me it really does get better. It's cliche as fuck, but I literally just went through this and I'm always happy to talk. Chin up bud.
cheers bro :)
***** Any time bud. Keep pouring energy into your channel - it'll lift you up. The support from your subscribers and the opportunities presented to you will change everything for the better (like you said, it's happening already). Focus on your success and keep working hard!
A very brave vlog Mr B. It's easy to continue with the persona, keeping the mask on and giving little away about the person beneath the helmet. Much harder to open yourself up - especially when there are so many out there whose first instinct is to criticise and dismiss. Best wishes from the North dude x
P.S. I think I'll keep my mask on - no fucker wants to hear my problems!
We do. While some criticise , a lot actually enjoy hearing about others lives.
That or we sit watching corrie drinking our tea reviewing our depressing lives.
PLEASE leave the mask on!! You know I love it that way.
Can,t believe after all this time crumble we still ain’t seen your face, you can,t be that ****ing ugly, peace out tiger😂
this has to be one of the best vlogs I've seen up to this point. It's crazy what even a relatively small channel like mine does to my weird mind. I think it's actually not that easy to keep all things fun although this is how RUclips's supposed to be I guess. It all works well as long as one doesn't think too much about it.
I absolutely enjoyed listening to your story telling us what it really is like to run a big and successful channel. Thanks for sharing!
By the way I'm too young to give proper advice but one thing I can tell you for sure. Getting separated is the right thing to do, especially for your kid. My parents failed to get divorced over a long time and my brother and myself had to suffer from their constant quarreling for many years as kids and teenagers. I always thought I didn't care much and it didn't affect me at all. But now since I'm getting older I slowly start to realize how my parents and their constant arguments fucked with my head rather badly. Don't do this to your kid!
Troy Nguyen
I can stop any time I want I swear man
Honest post Schaaf, very big of you and hard to do, truth be told. I know some friends whose parents split up and they're just as if not more messed up as friends I have whose parents stayed together. You have 2 choices in life, blame your parents, live in the past or accept they thought what they were doing at the time was good for you and move on, I chose the latter and believe me it's not easy to do. Life circumstance in the former years can really fuck you up, it's how you deal with the latter stages that counts. :-)
Balloaks I don't blame them for anything. I'm rather glad I found all of this out myself and didn't have to pay a therapist to do it for me ;)
Sorry, didn't mean you particularly, was generalising. Glad you did, unfortunately it's not an exact science and some people just plain can't figure it out for themselves, consider yourself one of the lucky few. :-)
***** I read something like this in a magazine i get every month all the time. Not the last part though, but the rest fits in pretty well. Maybe humanity isn't "lost", as you said it, since once the magazine, or you, or alot of humans i talked to actually said that humans are becoming robots.
The magazine is literally always saying that you have to take your time, slow down, enjoy the moments, dream (even at work, where it is a negative thing), because we need to hit the brakes in our "acceleration society".
They actually called the generation I'm in the "Heads down" generation, because "we" are always looking at our phones, maybe even in fear that we miss something "important". Getting information quickly seems to be important, but the problem is that this information is most of the times sketchy.
However, once we realized it, maybe we can do a change, as happened before alot:
In Germany, the Enlightment (philosophy: no god, only what you can see and feel is right) followed after the 30 years war, (war between evangelic and catholic).
After the terrifying Enlightment, the romance followed.
As you can see, humans react to the eras, so you don't have to fear that we become robots, in fact, i guess we are witnesses of a changing era.
Completely fair play to you Baron. Hats off for not only doing it right, but doing it the hard way, for the right reasons, and basically being a bloody good chap. This video must have been VERY bloody hard to make, but I'll bet there is a whole bunch of people that can relate.
thanks :)
more than welcome - and just to echo Smo's comments too, things really do work out with time. Been there myself. Keep being a badass BvG
I watched the whole video. I hope things get better for you mate. Thank you for sharing everything with us.
Fancy seeing you here :P
Dean Symons
Not really, he watches pretty much every moto vlogger
Dude, in my opinion you shouldnt try to do what your subs want to see, but what YOU want to do and what YOU like to do. This will be the best for your channel
That was fantastic Baron, one of the best videos I've seen. A lot of people will tell you this but you do get over divorce, it becomes just something that you did. Keep doing the videos and maybe a world trip is the order of the day.
Oh and don't be afraid to talk about the depression, more people need to.
Much respect, Just do what makes you happy and what feels right! I have not talked about it too much but I have had problems with depression for a long time on and off quite badly in my early days of vlogging in fact but people probs didn't know as just being on the bike brought the real me out that's where I got my smiles. Been down the NHS and medication route didn't work what has really helped me is a change of mind set and approach to life and it sounds like you are making that change a change only you can make. I wish you the best of luck with it all! Here to new beginning's!
As someone who is now venturing down that path (it's been a tough past couple years and had a lot of time off work lately for it), its good to see that things can indeed change.
Everyone's behind you guys, like we're riding pillion...except naked...with head protection of course ;)
I knew you had depression when I first came across your channel. That's why I subbed. Going on 17 years for me (fist bump).
I'm never getting married. Waste of time and money. To quote Doug Stanhope: "I love you so much, lets get the government involved!"
@@therealunclevanya When's the last time you heard a woman say she cares about her soon to be ex husband's wellbeing, that she has to buy him a house so he's taken care of? That shit don't happen both ways. They instantly win because..... vagina. Never get married guys, and if you do, get a big prenup.
I'd love to help you out with anything bro, sorry about the situation :(
cheers bud - how about some beers when i pass through the US of A.. ;)
***** Come up to Nova Scotia and do the Cabot Trail. Unbelievable riding in the summer and not too many rozzers around either.
***** I would throw in beers and a place to stay in the USA!
bakerXderek
Or you'll get him so drunk you'll compare gooty holes?
Capt Prospect I am from NS and can vouch for the trail!
You take advice? I advise you to do whatever you want to do, don't worry about the people who want more Track videos or people who want more Vlogs, The people that watch every video you make are here because YOU are in it. You could be running down the street naked covered in Marmite or sat with an Old lady having a cup of tea for 10 minutes, People will still watch it because YOU made it and YOU'RE in it. So like Frankie says man, Relax because like you said all things have an end, so enjoy the time in between and we'll all be here to enjoy it with you brother.
and I for one greatly appreciate your efforts here on RUclips your videos are a highlight of my day, to sit back relax and have a cup'a tea and watch some good old BaronVonGrumble do what he does best, make me happy.
Amen.
I♥Music excellent response!
Amen !!!
Combat vet here, I'm glad I sat through the whole thing. I don't want to sound like a weirdo but there's something about you that kind of drew me in to your channel. I'd love to meet you some day, not in a serial killer/stalker way I promise. Cheers.
It's 2023 and watching the vids in chronological order - just wanted to stop by and say cheers and hopefully things got sorted out (don't want to skip eisodes). Also want to say I really enjoy the thoughts you're sharing with us.
Sorry to hear about this Baron I hope it all gets sorted out for you swiftly mate. When the dust settles and you're ready to embark on those travels, I'm sure it'll be nothing short of epic :)
Hey baron, I just wanted to say I'm a follower from all the way in the Caribbean at the very bottom of the chain called "Trinidad and Tobago". I wanted to let you know that imagine, seven thousand kilometres away in a tiny little island you're here impacting lives. You're a role model to me in many ways Baron, though I dont properly know you, after following you for years, bits and bobs of your personality have obviously been captured. The way you man the fuck up when needed or always seem work your hardest to get something done. I dunno what I'm tryinna say man, but I hope all works out well for you. Can't say I wouldnt mind if you stopped making videos haha, they mean a ton to me,but best of luck in the recovery process Baron, as much as a sub can love a channel's person, we do. And you don't have to show us the BaronVonGrumble personality sensation, you can show us BvG the person, depression n all. We wont mind. You're mostly here to entertain us i guess but we're here for you too! Cant wait to see what crazy trip you're gonna go on Cheers man, Trini subscriber out! :)
Going through something similar right now and taking a break from vlogging. Listening to your thoughts on depression and anxiety were very helpful because it's exactly what I've come to think. I watched this video when it was first released a couple years ago, and have kept up with your stuff since then - from the outside looking in, it appears that you're very happy, and I hope that holds true internal to you. Thank you for being open with us.
I'm sorry to hear that man!
wish you all the best bud
ayy 6foot
You should make videos.
Just found your channel and are catching up on your vlogs. Have liked all off them and even more after this one. Keep up the honesty and hard work, and thanks for great entertainment.
Wow, Baron. It's crazy looking back at this video and noticing how hard everything hit you. The tone of your voice, the stuff you talk about, everything is so different! And now look at the videos you're posting, you're the complete opposite person. You're so happy and chirpy in all of your recent videos! Which is certainly why everyone loves you. So keep doing what you do and have some fun with it! Don't worry about people not liking your shit because I can guarantee you that the vast majority will love it!. You're back! It's good to see that man!
- Now how about a double bloody decker!?
Fair play to you for talking so openly about depression. The more people in the public domain do this, the better. It's far far more common than people realise. It's just a lot of people suffer in silence because they don't want to be seen as 'mad' or a 'psycho'. These tags are outdated and need to be ditched, and depression needs to be out in the open and talked about more.
I keep coming back to this video, I relate to your experience in so many ways, thank you Baron:)
Whatever you do or where ever you go with your channel baron ill still watch it and be inspired. Ive enjoyed watching your videos for the past 2 years actually because of you and seeing you ride sport bikes kinda helped my decision in which type of bikes i wanted to ride when i first started riding. Keep doing what you do brah we all enjoy your videos.
Your such a brave man BVG I admire you for all you have done since I first subscribed to your channel.
I was always such a super strong woman then 2yrs ago I was diagnosed with servere depression & put on medication.
I've had no support from family, friends or the doctors, like you say this disease seems to brand you a freak.
However I no that the strong girl is in there somewhere & I've found reason to live by a few good books, riding my, motorbike & believe or not through being inspired by strong people who have a zest for life, the ability to carry on regardless and be themselves. Your one of those people Baron.
I never miss your videos and sometimes I watch certain ones over again cos they make me laugh & smile & give me a wilful boost to get off my ass when im down.
My fave one being when you laugh at your mate when he comes off his dirt bike!!
If you need to go round the world to find out how wonderful, special & unique you are then do it.
However without even meeting each other you've been able to make my world & life a little better, happier & worthy, so thank you :-)
And you might be homeless in London but there's always a spare room & a double decker in north wales if you visit.
Double bloody love and hugs x x x
Well good for you mate. That was an awesome thing to do, in many ways.
Whatever pleasures you have got out of what you have done with your channel - you have more than earned, maybe a few nutters are jealous - who cares? Many of us, even low-subbed (lol) vloggers on here know only too well what it takes to create these vids - you have it on a massive scale.
Yes you are indeed "not alone" with depression or anxiety. I think you'll find more people understand than you might have expected, Wifey and I included :)
FWIW we wish you all the best with the transition you are undertaking. Whatever you do on YT - that's up to you, I'll bet lots of us will follow with interest whatever it is. Whatever you do with everything else, I hope it brings you some fun along the way.
Cheers, CC and Wifey x
cheers to you and the wifey :)
thank you for doing this vlog, I have suffered with anxiety and depression for around 20 years too but its got lots worse over the last 10 years. im currently unemployed and single as usual but will make more of an effort in my life now. thanks Baron. best of luck with your future. :-)
I for one know I will continue to watch, I love your vids!! I hope all works out for you and family. I have been there, done that and got the t-shirt and still came out the other side happier. Keep up the great work baron!!!
Another great video. Honest, open, recognizable. I've been watching you since you went off-roading with a street bike. I have no idea about motorcycles, don't have a license, and have never driven one, but you have entertained me immensely over the past year or so. Such a ton of info in this video, people indeed don't see what goes on inside the helmet. I hope if you do make a trip, and visit Norway, that you know you'll be more than welcome to stay over in my girls' treehouse in our garden (would take you some brief off-roading to get here). The best of luck for the future, I'm sure it will bring you something "double-bloody-awesome"!
I find your honestly extremely admirable Baron. It takes a lot to bare that part of your soul to the world. I know most people don't know who you are, so what does it matter...but it matters to you. It's never easy to speak about ones short-comings so openly, so I applaud you for having the courage to do so. Everyone's life always looks better from the outside, and I'm pretty sure thats how others have viewed yours. But nobody ever gets to see behind the curtain...so now they know that your life is probably just as difficult as theirs. And that goes for all of us vloggers...we're all just normal people after all. I don't want to make this a pity party (although I am sad that you're going through this) because in the end I'm sure the decisions you make are ultimately going to make you a happier person. Since you said you want to travel more, if you decide to come to the US you definitely have a place to crash with me in either Miami or New York (depending on where I'm living at the moment). And I'm pretty sure that I can speak for most of the motovloggers here, but I'm pretty certain that most of them would be willing to put you up in their homes so you can travel around. I hope everything works out for you in the end mate.
I suffer from the exact same mental health issues, there are so much people like you out there and you have a great outlet to try and end the stigma. Every single one of your followers is behind you including me!
Interesting vlog Baron. It's interesting the number of vloggers that open up and say they have depression. I've been dealing with it on and off for the past 8 years. I've had the same experience as you, negative reactions etc. I also struggle with social cues etc, aspergers related stuff. It's interesting to think there may be some connection between the desire to speak anonymously on video (Vlogging) and your situation. I see a lot of vloggers in your situation. I hope things improve for you and that this video helps you feel a bit better! Talking helps, a lot. I found that recently.
i think leadpin did a video on depression aswell
Thanks for sharing this. It's very personal and although I have no right to know these things about you I utterly respect and appreciate your honesty about your situation. I think making and sharing this video took some real courage. The truth can be difficult but it also sets you free. You suffer from depression and that's nothing to be ashamed of, in fact I prefer friends and colleagues to tell me if they have such a condition. Many entertainers are depressives, the "crying clown" is a well known paradox. Myself and others enjoy your videos so yes, I do think of you as an entertainer and it sounds as though you therefore fit that unfortunate paradox. As for borderline Asperger's, well I think we all have that! I hope things work out well for you and for the people you care about. Stay safe out there.
Dude, so sorry to hear this. Reminds me why I refuse to marry my gf.
Let me say I just started following you and watching your videos. I do genuinely loves your videos!!! Its always hard to deal with the next steps in a separation, chin up mate!! I feels good to release stress. Hope you do good in the future, shit will get better!! Cheers!!
So much respect, for sharing this, for the honesty and for what appears to be giving everything up for the sake of the little one, not everyone is put in this situation but it shows the true colours of a person and you seem to have come out shining
Top work as always
Thanks for sharing Baron. Good luck with it all mate!
I Love You man!, I've been exactly where you are, it is a dark place at times and some days it feels like there is no light at the end of tunnel, feck me some days there is not even a tunnel in sight.
It’s great to hear that you and your now ex have a great relationship and so much respect for each other even at this testing time, so many times it’s the bad blood here that causes more issues.
I was with you at a few hundred subs, and still find you as entertaining now as I did then, and when things get challenging or your feeling lost and bored, just try painting your cock again.
Keep smiling man, we all need to feel the lows to appreciate the highs.
.
Well said Surfie! :-)
Been watching a few of your videoes this week, thanks for your honesty about depression, it helps a bit.
You were the first motovlogger I came across with a personality bigger than any one channel. May the end results achieved continue to be to your benefit. I'll be watching and hoping for the best for you and to see whatever your life and channel evolves into. Cheers from the USA.
I completely agree with the cancer gets sympathy thing. I have arthritis, I'm only 33 ffs. I'm loosing my job because I can't keep up physically, I can't go to the gym which was my way to relax before. I can't hold my 9 month old son for very long or walk up stairs with him. It's causing tension with my wife too.
I feel I've got depression because of all this and no one seems to understand my life is falling apart.
There has to be a way to give people the help they need in this kind of situation.
I hope things are a bit better, more tolerable??? I'm going through something similar with back issues.
ray Nic thanks pal, just reading my comment from 4 years ago, it doesn’t feel like I wrote it now.
This was around the time I got my motorcycle and I was hoping that I would get wiped out by a driver on their phone.
Instead I was able to turn my life and my condition around. Being on two wheels took my mind off the pain and I made loads of new friends through going to popular biker spots.
Today I can happily say I enjoy life again. The pain is minimal and I am able to ride a mountain bike regularly too.
I hope you can find something that helps your back. My best suggestion is do things everyday that make you happy and work on exercises that strengthens your core. You need to heal your mind before your body will accept any help.
Real heart on the Sleeve stuff there mate!
Proud of ya ;-)
Because of 44teeth I am going through your videos again. Some I have skipped in the past. Including this one. Coming back to it, this is above and beyond the best one, and most honest video, you have posted. so.. thank you! A bit late perhaps.. but still!
hope everything goes well mate! your videos have gave me so much joy when i have been down. everything will sort out for the best!
Divorce, don't get me started about it. If I can give you one tip from when my parents divorced 8 years ago: don't divorce in fighting, remain friends so you can talk to one another when there's a problem with your son :)
thanks bud - yeah, its amicable at the moment so fingers crossed.
*****
mainly also because I know, when there's a problem with me or my sister. My mother can still come into the house and my father can come to my mother's appartement to talk without them having to fight about it or something.
It won't only help your son, it'll help you and your wife as well to maintain a healthy friendly relationship. Anyways, I know it sucks at first, but once you have your own place, and get life back on track all goes well! Take care man!
Had to pause video to take a poo, Hope thats ok
just make sure you completed the paper work properly...
...and file it in the right place. ;)
You're an inspiration Baron, I also suffer from anxiety and depression thank you for making more people aware. Hope things get easier.
Watching this again as I remember it being informative and helpful before. I'm super glad you seem to have found your feet and some happiness but I'm sure we're all mourning the "baron in a travel tavern" series that could have given us all so much ;-)
Only YOU can Make YOU happy brother.
Aw mate :(
If you need anything ... or are up for a bit of karting (my treat), just holla
... but no finger up the bum ;)
Hang in there Baron! Love your videos, they always put a big smile on my face. Quality! 😄👍
Just bought an old Triumph Daytona 955i (low mileage and spotless), my first bike for 20 years and loving it!!!!!! Now all I need is a camera and a mic........
Major respect for taking the leap and putting this video up Baron! I've been a fan for quite a while now, and suffice to say that with this video you have guaranteed my support, WHATEVER direction you might want to take. You make excellent videos, have a great sense of humor and awesome drive to keep doing stuff you love. Don't let anything make you forget that and make you lose focus of what you love. Do that crazy trip! Come to Mexico, it seriously is a special place in the world and will definitely open your mind. And you already have a house, a bike and a tour guide here ;)
re-watching this almost 6 years later. Amazing how things turned out right. :) A bit less BvG but a lot more 44teeth. #corona #staysafe :)
I love watching his back log. Dead pixels absolutely smashing it as well
You should take care of your son, but I don't see why you're buying her house. She's a big girl...
Either way, head up and things will turn about for you.
I think a big outrageous trip would be an another awesome experience for you and really get things off your mind and get your mind in the right place. It would also be awesome for us viewers as we love everything you upload. Keep it up mate!
Just started following you and think your ace. Loved this blog and several points have hit home as my 23 yr son is suffering from depression and it sucks! He's done the GP and is now going down the NHS route but will it work....who knows. Cheers for the honesty buddy.
Can we donate?
And this is why no man in his right mind should ever get married or have children. Women have nothing at all to offer a man. Getting married and having kids is betting half of your stuff that another person will love you forever. I feel for you Baron. I really do hope you get back to normal soon.
Best video to date! Your honestly was pure and I wish you and your family all the best through these hard times.
Talking is the best. My depression started with a form of amnesia and had to relearn who my wife and kids were. I had thoughts of doing what you are but my wife and I made the decision to work at it and she was what I needed. Some one to hold me up and pick me up when I fell down. It was probably the harder way to do it. That was what worked for us. I'm glad you said what you did! Think of this. Making depression a stance! Get the quotes / statistics and share them every ware you can. Scream it from the roof tops. Help your self by helping others. In what ever you do thanks for sharing and giving me the idea of taking up that mantra! Best of luck to you and yours in the time to come.
Try and do your best to stay positive bro. Things could ALWAYS be worse. Take for instance, my ex. If they made a movie about what happened to me, everyone would say it was far fetched and nobody would believe it. I never knew evil existed till we ended things. So trust me, it's a GREAT thing that it's a mutual decision between you and your wife, and great that you can still talk good about her. One thing to realize is that almost EVERYBODY around our age has a "story". Try your best to keep everything as amicable as possible, for your son's sake. All parties involved will be MUCH better off in the end, and before you know it, you'll be back on your feet in no time. Good luck bro.
P.S. I suffer from chronic back pain ( herniated discs, bulging discs, pinched nerves, etc ). I hear you about depression. I can't do A LOT of the things I used to love, which causes some depression. It sucks. I wish I had an answer for that... just gotta do your best with what you have. I find if I stay home it only gets worse. Go out and see the world. You'll feel better knowing your life isn't so bad.
Baron Von Bachelor!
Great, honest vid Baron. Having recently had a breakup myself and having depression in my family, I can fully relate. You're the number one motovlogger that inspired me to start. Power through this crap and keep on.
I'm watching this two years on and only just discovering you and loving it all!
Bernie in sydney
We should set up a "lets help baron" fund!
I'm in
It's called stickers...
8k a year?? cheeky baron ;) Not supposed to discuss youtube money I heard but fuck it, still pretty good doing something you sometime enjoy.
What a truly great video! I admire you for actually putting your son first rather than just saying it(!) and must say it was great to hear you talk about your depression, you are so right more needs to be done.
I'm nearly 22 and I've suffered from depression since I was 7 (not that I knew it was depression at the time) and even though I realised what I was suffering from in my early teens, it's only been in the last couple of months that I've actually been able to tell people and talk to people about it and that is due to nothing but stigma.
Depression is not seen as an illness but instead is seen as a weakness.
Brilliant video, thank you for being so open, you're right you don't owe anyone an explanation but it's nice that you gave one; an honest one at that. Just keep doing your own thing mate and I'll still be subscribed when you're back to cocking about, no matter how long it takes.
Why does baron have to buy his ex mrs a house?
Doing the right thing so his lad has somewhere to live!?!
im not sure about BvGs life but a family friend of mines was in a relationship for six years, the point i believe everything must be split equally in a separation, meaning the guy- who we knew- had to give up nearly everything he owned, even when he was the primary bread winner - if you like. it was a shame really cause she was a bitch, never worked and took the kid.
Exactly women fight for equality yet they're happy to let a guy buy them a drink or pay for the meal or taxi or a house, sell everything or get it all valued, then 50:50 split? Equality
JackSwatman so true dude it really winds me up.
Sounds like he want's to give his son and soon to be ex wife the best chance in life. Fair do's to BVG. As much as it sucks what's happened but he's at least trying to do whats best for himself and his child and lilun's mother.
Baron, get a Patreon and we'll donate :)
Only just discovered you and working my way through everyone of your videos, I really respect the way to treat your subs ! Keep on grumbling baron and I guess I will find out if you did get your shizzle together ;)
I hope you never regret this upload; it has been your most important, and will have touched many and helped others.
You are right: at least 20% of watchers will, at some point, have similar problems to those you describe. I came through it. There are mechanisms for dealing with depression. I think one should never give up (easier to say once you've come out from below the weight of the disease).
I wish you, your wife and son all the best buddy.
Come to the US!
He was in nyc a few months ago
Seems like forever ago but I'm thinking more like Utah lol.
dlinquencious yeah he is one of my favorites
No don't come
It's really hard for us Brits to get a green Card :(
I guess its time those fund raising sites come to good use. anyone with me?
I'll happily give Barron 20 pound. Jesus, the amount of laughs and entertainment he has given me far exceeds that of 20 pound.
Who's starting a kick starter?
more than likely to help his wife and kid get a good home, they can't be left to be renting a flat etc. give them something worth growing up in! I want to see the world happy, rather than myself...
Your an absolutely amazing motovlogger best I've seen, ever, you've really got me into the idea of starting myself :)
Baron, without a doubt you have definitely boosted to my favourite motorcycle rider ever. Never have I seen a youtuber be this open to his subscribers. I feel for you with what you are going through, but I really respect the decisions you have made. Without a doubt I will look forward to seeing more videos from yourself, and look forward to the rise from the ashes from you. Best of luck mate, and keep your head up :)
Sorry mate. -mgtow

Thanks for this vlog BvG! I hope that things get better for you in the near future. If you take a long trip like you want to do, I hope that it's even more epic than your TourDeBaron Series! Best Wishes!
Dude, can totally relate with the depression and anxiety issues, been suffering now for 12yrs, its so hard. Numb is the right word, you said it. Hope you get back on your feet real quick and you can still hold down a good friendship with your (ex) wife and a great relationship with your son. Keep facing the sun, Bro. You got this. #muchlove
This is by far the best vlog I've watched. I love you Baron. Keep doing whatever you want, whenever you want. We will watch you regardless!
This is the perfect title for a perfect view on depression and what needs to be done to tackle it!
I hope things are better for you 18 months on Barron!
I am sorry to hear about what you went through and hope you've come out the other side and are better. Depression is a silent killer and everything you said about it is true, the statistics do not lie, it is the biggest killer in men 18-40 years of age...we can never do enough to help others suffering with it!
Thanks
Thanks for doing this video Baron, hope your life gets better after this. I can kind of relate to this but I've not been diagnosed with depression or anything, but what you said about how your brain works is sort of like me as well.
I hope you can still enjoy vlogging, especially now that you're "going back to basics" with this channel. This was the first biking channel I got into and now I'm seriously thinking about starting biking lessons, so I have you to thank for that. And I'm sure you've touched so many other peoples' lives with this channel too.
Baron, you are very good at talking to the viewer. The way you speak and relate experiences/information etc is very engaging. In my opinion you have a great talent for presenting/talking about things. This skill is what drew me to your videos in the first place! So please keep it going. Thanks.
Totaly understand the depression side of life.
I'm struggling with it myself. Mate to do all you do in this state is great and only shows you don't want to give up. Trip sounds like a great idea! (Sorry I was commenting as I watching the video without waiting until the end). Im so glad you said what you said about the depression. It's totally unacceptable of how is been perceived. You've got bald of steel to come up with it in front of people and hopefully this will trigger some changes...
I may be one of your younger subs but i understand how hard this must be, just keep powering through, like you say you've agreed it's for the best and you seem like a true gentleman for every word said about the situation, not enough people deal with such serious issues in such a good way as you, i've loved your videos and whatever you choose to do I wish you all the best Baron!
You, Baron, are awesome! I appreciate you're honesty and I always look forward to your videos. And by the way, I've yet to find anyone motovlogging on RUclips as entertaining as you. Keep 'em coming, please
just found this channel about 3 weeks ago and i dont ride a bike but these videos have really made me want to do the CBT and then the full license, highly enjoyed every video I do hope you manage to keep them going and i'm very sorry to hear about your situation, fingers crossed everything works out for you mate , im 27 and have had to deal with depression and anxiety since i was about 14 so I know where you are coming from the stigma can be disheartening but the best thing is to surround yourself with friends that dont see you as a mental illness and see you as the friend they have always had. good luck
good video fella, thanks for having the nads to upload it… It's one of the many things I love about the motovlogging community, the amount of honesty, and understanding. It's a bit late perhaps, but you know you have a good bunch of people to hold you up should you need anything mate, myself included.
…on another note, I've been watching your videos (and RJ's) thinking that one of these days I'll see some places I used to work, and sure enough! at 26:26 that green building on the corner of Beak St… I miss working in London…
just going through the same thing now, and it was good to hear somebody else talk about it and the depression so many similarities it's fuck is this for real.! Any way your still around so just keep going.
Hey man! Sorry to hear about you troubles. My wife has bi polar disorder so I know how tough it can be for people to find help. Keep your head up, spend time with friends and go on that big trip, no time like the present. Thanks for your videos, keep them coming! You rock!
I hope everything works out for you buddy, at the end of the day your life is far more important than RUclips.. so if you need time to sort things out then do so, but know that I've enjoyed all of your videos from day one of finding your channel.. think the first video I'd ever watched of yours was the mobility scooter antics and after that I spent most of the night watching all of your videos leading up to that and subscribed for more! On that note, you must be doing something right as I watch all of your videos as to what direction to go towards just do what you want and hope for the best at the end of the day. Just to say you've also inspired me to create a motorcycle vlog type of shenanigan, not as good as you but at least the footage recorded is going to some use rather than being deleted after each journey.. If your ever my way and fancy a ride let me know!
Great vid i respect you even more for having the courage to talk about your depression and life, as much i like your Vlogs and want to see more you should concentrate on yourself pal and if you want to share your experiences with us that's awesome you have 85,000 subscribers that think your the shizzle and that's not going to change, best of luck much love bro :)
Thank you Baron for speaking out about depression and anxiety I've suffered with it for years, and thank you for inspiring me to start my own channel. Life when depressed looks completely different but following your channel helped me see the good things in life again, no matter how depressed i get just watching you brings a smile to my face and reminds me that there is at least one good person in the world. hope things get better for you :)
I was listening to your video thinking that I can relate to some of these things, and then you mentioned that you may have Aspergers. I have Aspergers, and I sometimes experience pretty major waves of depression and doubt but very rarely tell anyone about it because of the anxiety and I worry that people will see me as this weird nut job. I admire you hugely for putting up this video, for having the guts to tell thousands of people the truth, especially in the wake of separation. You have your head screwed on straight and you know what you're doing. You'll be home and dry in no time :)
Baron, You are absolutely my most favorite motovlogger on youtube. You're videos crack me up and are so entertaining. The reason why I enjoy them is because I feel that we have the same kind of humor. I know you're going through a rough patch in your life, but its all meant to be. We have all gone through it and I just truly hope your doing better now. I know its all late for the kind words but I only recently discovered your channel about a month ago. I even watched your road trip around europe in one day and it has motivated me to do the same kind of trip. Anyway man, I just wanted to let you know that I truly enjoyed watching your videos, from cracking me up to leaving me inspired to get out there and see the world. I hope everything is gravy with you and your life right now. Stay safe brotha!
I've lived vicariously through your videos for the past year now Baron, and want to thank you for everything that you've done and all the content that you've uploaded. Thank you. Please continue motovlogging, as I know you're absolutely an inspiration for many people in the world. I hope you're doing all right and that you get your footing soon mate. Cheers.
