This really is the first Roblox channel where there's no comedy, no jokes, no gameplay, only discussing serious topics. Took a while for a channel like this to be made, and I'm happy for it.
everyone feels emotions. while there are certainly situations where opening up would be more awkward or "socially inappropriate", when you get the chance you kinda just have to take a chance on your friends/family/other people. there's a good chance they'll be able to relate to whatever you're going through to some degree, and maybe even offer advice, like how they've gotten through the same situation in the past.
for me, i deal with a similar problem, but instead of being too embarrassed to discuss it, i become excited at the opportunity to the point i essentially forget practically everything i was going to say; my mood is like shitty object permanence - if i'm not feeling horrible, it feels as if i've never felt horrible ever, and vice versa
"Staying away from once-loved activities" I feel that in a mile away... coming from myself writing poetry to another person... *I feel deeply about that*
Well, maybe it's a sign of change that will happen in life? I've been feeling the same for a whole damn year, and i've been chasing the love and passion in tihngs i don't love anymore. But i found new ones, quite different from my older preffered activities.
@@Hadeth_a_stepa yeah, for me, (instead of beginning to work with poetry, I ended up with writing story arc's) but yeah that's kinda the change of style I have leading myself to this point, but hey it's thoughtful to leave a reply on this comment...
“A change in appetite” YES. EXACTLY. This is something huge for me and a few other people I know and if you’re looking for a change in your friend this is definitely something you should look out for.
I know this is a little late and probably wont be seen by anyone but, when I transitioned from 5th grade into middle school I started to develop some really bad thoughts of worthlessness and self hatred. This was most likely due to all the bullying I received and just hiding it from everyone. I know it's not really a good thing to discuss on RUclips but I did indulge in some self damaging and self degradation acts including a knife (I wont go any further with that i'm sure you can fill in the blanks). I also kept all my emotions up in a big bottle and smiled through it for fear of being a burden to my friends and family. Things didn't really get better in 7th and 8th grade puberty hit me like a truck and made my emotions all the more overwhelming. By this point I had kept up my facade of mental stability so long that I had developed a serious case of smiling depression and every day felt worse than the last. As my 7th grade year ended my cheery personality had been slowly degrading and turned more solemn and monotone. When 8th grade started and the bullying picked up again I had to psychically stop myself from lashing out. I had played out scenarios in my head where I beat every single one to a bloody pulp and mocked them; it was a dark time for me. I also stopped myself from having a mental breakdown because I didn't want to show vulnerability. I just felt like if I told someone they would act differently around me and stop being that one friend who would do the wildest things and start being more cautious and empathetic. I know it sounds stupid I didn't want that but, I just didn't want change. I was all under a lot of stress and mental pressure because of my smiling depression my grades started to slip which made my parents get on me and I was getting ready for a taekwondo exam and finals were coming up and I just felt so, so alone. I also started noticing my losses in games a lot more, it didn't matter if I won I just gave my teammates all the credit and when I lost I grew into the mindset I wasn't good at anything. I guess my teacher noticed one day and it was partially due to a personal narrative I was writing at the time but she had called the school counselor to see if I was okay. And even though I had the perfect opportunity to vent all of my anger, frustration, loneliness, worthlessness, and all of that... I lied through my teeth I told the counselor I was fine and made up some intellectual sounding excuses. I had reached my breaking point many times and from all the depression I had started to go a little insane and developed some psychopathic tendencies. I won't go into much detail, that would take too long but long story short I had written some pretty messed up stories which were hinted at with the mental scenarios earlier. Multiple times I was on the verge of a mental breakdown but I found my solace in music; Whenever I was about to burst I just went somewhere quiet and played a song by Tally Hall or Miracle Musical or The Ink Spots. Most notably Turn The Lights Off, I don't want to set the world on fire, and Dream Sweet in Sea Major. I started to grow more hostile and my usual cheery attitude had been corroded by rage and hostility. Still, I didn't want to be a burden and no matter how much I wanted to, I stopped myself from asking for help. I just felt so alone in my world of pain mad suffering I had no one to relate to and I sometimes wasn't able to stop myself from lashing out I had snapped one day and while playing a PE game one of my bullies got in my way and I just full force shoulder bashed him to the ground. After a while I guess I snapped. I either went full psychopath or fully insane (give or take) and I just didn't feel bothered by my bottled up emotions anymore. I had kept my smiling depression and my emotions bottled up for so long I had become numb to it I tried to cry when I thought about it. But I just couldn't, I eventually told one of my friends about my self damaging acts because he vented to me about his and I wanted him to know I understood his pain he's is the only one to this day who knows the full extent of my situation not even my parents or siblings know. It's now a little later (about a year) and I still haven't vented to anyone, nowadays I'm a little shyer and I hate to make people feel like i'm a burden to them or inconvenience them in any way. This is mainly a problem with me not wanting to bother my teachers or other people for help. I'm a little like my old self and I've been seeing a lot more mentally motivating content like this and it's made me want to be like my old self. I don't think i'll ever be the same and I don't think i'll tell anyone about my trauma but I guess this is a way I can share my story and help other people realize they do need to express their emotions. In my case I got lucky by keeping a very thin line of self control but people in my situation have reset their character in real life... I'm sure you know what I mean. The last thing I have to share is I also didn't want to seek professional help because I felt like my case just wasn't important enough or the therapist would think i'm faking it. Anyways if this comment manages to get enough attention and y'all want me to get help then maybe... just maybe... i'll do it Here's my favorite quote to represent my story, "what you hear from me is the truth I wouldn't tell you if it wasn't, would I?" -Clyde Blackburn P.S. Sorry if this is a little long I guess I just wanted to help other people, bye bye!
I once had a horrible day to the point of mental breakdown due to parental pressure and fear of the future (though only for a few minutes) Next day, I couldn't care less about anything, whether it be my friends, whatever they were teaching in school, or.. myself. I... felt empty, it felt like my life had gone to waste, and anything I do to recover it won't matter. Thankfully, I had good friends, which cheered me up for basically the entire day and convinced me to just take it easy for a while. Which I did, and now I'm back stronger than ever.
@@Zqily Hey man youre strong dont forget that, theres strength through our greatest adversities and where would we like to draw wisdom through our experiences is simply written "Out of suffering emerged the strongest souls, the most massive characters are seered with scars". Take care, i hope you find whatever it is youre looking for (✿^‿^)
@Zqily This really remember about when i was a kid, i really feel empty because i had no friends. Just waiting someone come to me and try become my friend in school, but this really go to days, weeks, months, even years i get a really good friend out of school when i get 11 years but i still feel empty in the school and the home (about the part of care less about anything was the same for me) all i was only doing is see the network in my computer (with 8 years) like a way of escape from this reality But after someone finally become my friend when try in school, like 14 years i really get new friends for waiting, but some times i still feel empty when i am alone or i try walk around the city with my friends. Actually i am a Brazillian with 15 years
lucky you! mine didn't notice anything about me. Maybe I'm just too good at masking those bottled up emotions using energetic vibes and only the happiness out of every available emotion in the bottle. -the mental breakdown can delay I guess? no but I do think it's still clearly visible by how I meet up with my good ol' friends less often and stopped playing around with them during class, in other words preferring to be alone most times.
honestly, all I struggle with is if my friends would still like me if they knew what I watched, because I used to be SUPER open with friends and send them countryball shorts, until one of them asked me to stop sending them. And then I just figured "well, they probably hate me now"
I feel like nobody talks about appetite, but especially when someone starts eating less. We’re so used to diet culture, people don’t think about it as self destructive. We need nutrition to keep going. I had a breakdown and stopped eating for a full week, lost the most weight I had in years, and was told I looked good for losing weight. It would’ve been the case, if not for the worst reasons. Thank you for highlighting that struggle.
I'm so sorry that there was a time you felt you had to put your appetite away because of an unfortunate breakdown. There's been a multitude of factors surrounding social media that continues to drive nutrition away (e.g. fast food brands, tiktok "diet hacks," stigmatizing other diets or ways to eat such as forcing others to be vegan or mediterranean, etc.). Watching you or someone else's appetite in a positive way can mean a lot despite how on-the-surface it may look at first.
Man. This video definitely hit harder than I expected. I’m currently 22 Dealing with several issues that I never thought I’d ever have to face. I have Paranoid Schizophrenia, OSDD-1b, BPD, Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, And Autism. This video was really an eye opener for me, but it’s an eye opener that has been re-occurring for years on end. Within the past 4 years I’ve had life absolutely kick my ass. I’ve been left by over half of what my friend group was due to a single person who hated me spreading horrifically gross accusations against me, Been in the hospital multiple times because of my own hand, And I’ve now been raising my 14 year old sibling by myself after getting my horrifically abusive mother arrested and have struggled with money to the point of being borderline homeless 24/7. I’ve had so many ups and downs constantly that its gotten to the point where I can’t even bring myself to bounce back, and sort of wallow in my own feelings and self doubts because professional’s don’t really even know how to help me anymore. I’ve been diagnosed with so many things and yet I wake up every day and know that there’s something wrong with me but yet I can never find an answer, and it’s completely destroyed my personal life. Art and Animation used to be a passion of mine but now I can barely even push myself to get through a single drawing, and I usually just lay in bed talking to my friends and watching youtube 24/7 because I don’t really know what to do with myself, and I was never taught how to deal with my emotions as an adult because I’m always expected to be perfectly fine since I’m not a kid anymore. Seeing stuff like this makes me feel a bit better because I know that there are some younger people out there who can actually watch this and know how to help themselves and others and do what I never could as a kid. Kudos to you man, it is amazing to see and its the kind of content we need more of in these trying times ❤
I relate to you a lot. I have BPD as well, it’s been a struggle with loneliness because I was kicked out of a friend group due to my mental health and one of my closest friends just couldn’t stand me anymore. I’m currently 20 & although I love Roblox, I quit because i was just trying to recreate old memories again. Thank you for sharing, even in comment sections like this i don’t feel as isolated.
Your story really made me feel genuinely heartbroken, I hope you will feel better and eventually find a way out of all this hell. I don't personally know you, but I want you to remember that us people behind a screen love you ❤
I remember doing all these five things in 2nd grade. I had depression in the worst way possible. Still having dark memories of it. 2nd grade changed my life that used to happy. I cried when listening to this because it made me remember my dark moments
i only watch these kind of videos to cope and at least relate to something that is familiar to me, as they show how i be actin sometimes i do see myself in those clips, it motivates me to be better mentally and physically, as well as stop those bad mental health signs, and maybe even reach out to someone.
I'm so glad these videos are relatable and you feel more motivated to improve physiologically. I hope these videos continue to help you out with whatever you may be going through 💜💖
I'm only two minutes in but uh. I was cyber-bullied at a young age for around four years and only last year did I have the courage to leave him and his group of friends. He also did in fact take one of my best friends with him and he started bullying me too. I have new best friends now though and I love them to the moon and back and will be very grateful for them. I'm not diagnosing myself but I'm pretty sure I had or still have depression. She's slowly helping me feel like myself again as I've started smiling and laughing and being silly again. Being a lot less negative and spending more time with my siblings. I'm very grateful for them and I don't know what I'd do without them.
One time, in seventh grade (I won’t mention my current grade for privacy), a friend of mine somehow picked up on my secrecy and said “Dude, are you bipolar?” I didn’t understand that word at the time. Then I went home and googled it. And I absolutely sank that night. I cried my eyes out in my room because I knew full well that he was right. And as of late, I’ve been trying to keep myself in even more secrecy, and I’m constantly forcing myself into a happier attitude, because I hate when people worry about me. Not because it bothers me, but because I feel it’s not worth the time and effort, like I’m not worth worrying over.
How to make a Bacon and Cheese Omelette Grilled Cheese Sandwich Omelette. Take 3 eggs and mix them with a small amount of milk. Then, put the mixture into a 10 inch round frying pan. Put the lid of the frying pan on and set the heat to 5/med. Wait until the mixture has no raw/wet spots. Now, put a reasonable amount of mild cheddar onto the cooked egg mixture. You can also put bacon with if that’s what you prefer. After, fold the omelette once (it should look like a semicircle). Now, take the omelette out of the pan. Grilled Cheese. Take two slices of Brioche bread and spread some lightly salted butter or mayo on one side of each slice of bread. Then put a slice of Vermont cheddar cheese on the opposite sides of the bread slices. Put the omelette in between the bread slices (the butter and cheese should be connected to the bread during this process. Now, put this sandwich onto the same pan. Cook each side to your liking, whether it’s perfectly cooked or not. After you are done cooking it, cut it down the middle so that there are to triangle slices of grilled cheese. Enjoy Thanks for this video, bro, I’ll remember to watch this
After watching this video, i finally realized whats going on with one of my friends. I'm going to try my best to help them, i don't like seeing people i know and love just suffer and hide from things that keep hurting them, i wanna help them.
I hope things start to get better for you and your friends. It can always hurt seeing someone fall down behind your back and feeling unsure on how to help them.
Man the last one kinda describes how I don’t even care for myself I bottle up my feelings, help others instead of myself, and few other things so yea :3
I'm sorry about that. However, whether you have a family member, partner, or just a close friend to go to, it's always a good idea to talk to them about how you feel. If you don't have many or lack trust, you can always make a new friend and slowly talk to them, whether physically or online. Don't light yourself on fire to warm others around you 💜
School is starting for me in a few days that alone just makes me destroy myself more with how I procrastinate on homework which I force myself to stay up at night to finish it on time ( thanks for the nice comments btw
i'm autistic, i have adhd, i have ocd, and i may also be cyclothymic or bipolar i deal with ocd and a lot of obsessive thoughts extremely often, especially regarding moral issues or activism related stuff which often trigger me and make me feel so shameful to the point of s.h i never learned how to forgive myself because as long as i ever did anything bad, it will always haunt me forever, plus often times what things i did wrong wasn't even out of bad intention, it's just me being silly or doing something without realizing that it could be harmful and because of that, to me i feel like my responsibilities are the same as my faults, because despite me being responsible for many things, i am unable to change my behavior because to me it's just natural curious behavior - either that or i just have habits i can't get rid of because they've been lifelong and if i were to get rid of it it would really hurt me or damage me because i can't live without those habits - because of that, anything i am responsible for eventually becomes my fault because i am literally unable to do anything to change my behavior because i become paralyzed when i try to approach that topic because all i think about when approaching whatever topic regarding what things i am responsible for is that i fear people punishing me (i also deal with pocd rather often too, i have some sensory k1nks involving specific clothing like baggy shorts or socks and stuff but i fear it may be misinterpreted as... y'know) (twitter is the bane of my existence, i used to doomscroll quite often, and plus because of my family and sibling scenario and the fact that due to that i'm not allowed to go outside very often, i have been sheltered for nearly my entire life, meaning i had to rely on the internet for more than 90 percent of my knowledge - i've gotten banned from countless communities online because i kept venting in places i shouldn't be but i had no other choice; i couldn't get a therapist at the time, and i couldn't really tell my parents because they were very unpredictable in their opinions which made me afraid to approach them) i also find it very difficult to apologize for things i feel most guilty about because, to me, apologizing makes me feel vulnerable or weak, and i think one of the possible causes is me being forced to apologize during my childhood over things i didn't really even have a bad intention about - such as stimming but accidentally breaking someone's boundaries doing so, or perhaps copying a behavior that i didn't realize was bad at the time my mood also fluctuates extremely often; if i'm in a good mood, i essentially forget every time i've ever felt bad, and if i'm in a bad mood, i essentially forget every time i've ever felt good to me, my mood is like having poor object permanence; if an object isn't right in front of me and clearly visible to me, then it doesn't exist i don't tend to make self deprecating jokes and i don't tend to show too many signs that i struggle which make it hard for others to see that i am struggling and only in a few instances at school where i end up becoming overwhelmed do i start raging and screaming at the top of my lungs (that has happened multiple times, my dad used to yell often too but character-wise he's much better now than then) and when i make vents online, i tend to write them in pretty verbose ways, inflated with philosophical thoughts and arguments that i struggle to resolve; either i do that or i start off my vents in a vague manner before i become frantic and use more keywords related to what i'm talking about until it eventually becomes super blunt and revealing of personal details in general i just feel like i'm running aimlessly and the only plans i have for the future for me to seem less as if i'm winging life in general is to just disguise and mask everything i do in logic or philosophies employing variables i only ever got the gist of (meaning i'm probably using a ton of definitions wrong but i'm being so verbose that no one can recognize i'm spouting gibberish) and hope that no one finds out what i'm really doing and view me as if i have an ulterior motive because i don't i don't think i ever truly had any ulterior motives, as an autistic person i tend to be pretty honest, but i just fear that people misinterpret me as having ulterior motives or maybe that i do have ulterior motives, only just subconscious ulterior motives driving me to do morally gray or questionable things where i fawn and disguise it as entirely okay oh, and also, one more thing metaphorically, i never strike to assault, i only strike to defend another analogy to explain this is using positive and negative numbers - i never add a positive value to enter the positive range (self-indulgence), i only add a positive value to exit the negative range (self-preservation) i only ever fear what people are capable of punishment-wise
I read the entire thing I dont know how to help you but i can try to get your feelings or atleast be a person that you can trust Also, your feelings are valid, your not crazy ❤
i hope u see this, ur not alone (gonna copy your format here because its much more cleaner than a long paragraph hope u dont mind lol) -this is one of the most relatable things I've seen in a long time. -i too struggle with OCD and only recently have been mentioned to may have depression (im not too suicidal just more of sad) and ADHD. it's quite a living hell when all i can think about is being clean to the point where my handwashes and showers times are extremely long. -i too struggle with forgiving myself when ive unintentionally or accidentally done something bad. or even if someone puts the blame on me for something i cant help (this relating to my OCD) i would still feel bad for and sometimes feel like there is something wrong with me -my mood also fluctuates like yours, when im doing good i forget when i felt bad and when im doing bad i forget when i felt good also descending into an endless spiral with negative thoughts relating to what made me feel bad -excluding my mood and about my parents, whenever im dealing with my OCD well it seems like my parents dont acknowledge it until i mention it to them. when im not dealing with my OCD well (which is completely normal since progression isnt always going to go up, its a zig-zag of down and ups) it feels like my parents attack me for it. even though they really do care and worry about me, what they say to me that they think will "help" just brings me down and is sometimes utter useless (me having some of language barrier too since im born american) -some other thing is that I have no self-confidence whatsoever. i hardly think that some things i can do are cool and i mostly think down on myself for the things i have done bad (mentioned above) -im too afraid to talk about my other problems because they seem so wrong and disgusting to me, myself, but ill just keep dealing with. i want to keep walking but its so hard sometimes yk? these arent my full thoughts but ill like to get this out to you 👍❤
I do not go outside often. Honestly the things I like to do are the things my parents don’t want me to do. So I thought, “Why can’t they accept what their child likes to have instead of forcing them to be better?” Because they think I will become a bad person. That’s just their opinion. Whenever they force me to stop, I still continued. Whenever I say something bad, they get mad at me. But I do not care about their words. This is MY life. No one can control my actions in the future. I have my choices confirmed and followed. Whenever I am alone, I feel like something isn’t right on my back. Loneliness terrifies me the more I stay alone, relying on my own questions and answers for my life to continue. That’s why I always talk to my friends. I need their opinions on what I should do, and their suggestions for seeing if that makes a change in my life. I talk to them because I cannot stay alone at home in one corner, feeling the shivery presence of such souls. I also talk to my self conscious, or that’s what I call, for my very opinions about certain situations, but sometimes I treat it differently than how I see it in my eyes. For example, one person being harmed by the other. If I saw that, I would help the victim. But if I’m the victim, I get distressed and serious. If I’m the bully, I laugh in insanity. I hate how it is to be extraordinary. I’m like an introvert because I stay at home like 99% of my life now, but I used to go everywhere and enjoy the rays of the sun, or enjoy the puddles of the rain. I wished I stayed the same as my past self. Yet I already changed. I cannot turn back now and I have to deal with the present. I also cannot eat properly. Sometimes when I am doing something I like to do, I felt like eating later. But I eat only snacks from to kitchen. So I’m not feeling the right way I should be feeling. And also, I wished to be free from limitations. I cannot stay at the bottom line forever, you know? I try to stand tall like the others, but there are downsides too. Like being envied by many people because of my sudden rise of talent. I don’t really brag about it much, but some say they are good at something they actually cannot do, and vice versa. *sigh* some people can change while some can’t.
I stay away from people constantly I don't like to be with other people... I don't know why but when I was a kid I was.. so..... energetic? It just doesn't come to me anymore... it hurts to go back to memories of me actually having fun times because they rarely ever happen these days... It's really just a struggle for most people including myself to think of reasons to I guess... Exist? not being able to find what suits them.. it's better for most to help each other out and even though I'm self destructive mainly.. I will at least take into note some of the things you said in this for some other friends I stopped talking to a while back.. Thanks! (and thank you User for listening to what I had to say... I rarely ever talk about stuff like this... and.. this video just mainly brought up these topics from in me and I couldn't resist to not talk about them.. Thank you for sticking around and reading this..)
@@Mr.Malware1299 Maybe to at least help or make your situation better, just starting saying out loud that positive comments about yourself. It can be appearance-wise, hobby-wise, and whatever---just make sure its a positive comment. Im just a 13 yr old stranger on the internet, but I hope you'll get through this and reach a part of your life where you feel happier :D
Me: have all the signs of mentally suffering Also me: still acting careless (Me and some others is a special case,but you should go look at yourself again if you got even a light change in mental. Thats all,stay helthy,stay heppy,and most importantly,stay sene :D)
Yo! I'm braindead. And I am a part of the majority that have depression. It all started when I started growing up where my parents had to change their attitude towards me, since well, I am getting more mature of course. But their attitude was kind of different than the usual ones where they give light punishments. Oh! No, no, no. They liked hitting me over the smallest things. Like: Being clumsy, spilling a bit of water, singing at lunch or dinner, etc. And yeah, this all started when I was 7. I am now 12 years old and still suffers from their mentally crushing punishments. I do not feel emotions anymore, I don't care when they give me sermons and stuff, and yeah. That's basically it. I hope people learn in this video that their friend isn't always actually happy, but is trying their best to cover their sadness and hardships. And when that's the case, you should always comfort them. Remember, If you two separate one day and have no way of communicating, you will either remember them in your heart, *or just become a burning memory.* That's all I have to say, thank ya!!
I'm sorry that you feel you are being mistreated over the simplest things, and I thank you for telling us that. I would try to talk to a close friend about this whenever possible, seeing that you may not be able to go to your parents or reach out to a therapist regarding this. Try to stay safe! 💜💜
hey! just wanted to say that ive enjoyed your videos alot, some are interesting, some are relatable, and some are one the sad side, but theyve still helped me through some times so id like to leave this comment and say thinks!
this video almost made me cry because I'm going through this myself, I'm not mentally well. I'm not self-diagnosing it's just... I don't feel like myself anymore and I sometimes feel empty, today I had a really bad parental issue because of abuse, and I cried for around an hour straight, but I usually try to ignore it as much as possible and try to move on thinking this is alright... and to be honest it really isn't. and my friends have been worrying a lot more about me after it has gotten worse, and I seem emotionless now. I love that people are spreading awareness about others, it gives me at least some hope..
You gotta take care of yourself too, you’re in a situation where you don’t have much control over what happens. But there’s one thing they can’t take away, and that’s your mental autonomy. You may not be able to control your thoughts or feelings, but it’s up to you to take care of yourself & love yourself so you can be resilient, and get out of the abuse one day. But we all need to help each other. You deserve a good life. Start with being open to your friends. They’re worried, let them help you.
These signs are so true. I remember when I was in a tough time and struggling (I'm doing a lot better now) I exhibited all of the signs in the video. Please, if you're worried about your friends, let them know you care about them and that they can open up to you about their struggles.
Forgot to mention this, but another sign a friend needs help is if they isolate themselves from everyone else. Like if they decline your invites every time you want to hang out with them. I did this often when I wasn't doing so well, and my best friend would often ask me why I didn't ever want to hang out with her and if she did something wrong. I didn't give her a straight answer and told her it wasn't her and it was me when she asked me this because I didn't quite know either why I was so disinterested in hanging out with her even though she was literally my best friend and I wasn't ever upset with her. What I'm just trying to get at is that it helps a lot if you and your friends are honest and transparent with each other on how you are feeling and if you or your friend needs help.
However, you should look at the person deeper, not everyone is gonna be like the signs mentioned in the video, some, like me before, can hide these just by fake smiling, their smiles will always look very genuine, but deep down, when their alone, they aren't doing very well with their mental health. Make sure to always ask someone how they're doing and also try to look deeper into them if they're hiding something, and if they are, just reach out.
I'm sorry to hear you've been feeling down lately, and your appetite has been in a decline. I hope this video helps you in finding a friend who may help you with whatever you may feel 😊💜
i had this friend named ziah and she was struggling with mental health when i met her so i changed my personality to be more caring and accepting toward her. this was a recipe for disaster. she started to tell me that i was making her uncomfortable when she's the one making ME uncomfortable because she's hypersexual. and i had no other friends because i always talked to her. so, being kind and understanding, i stayed away from her and sat alone at lunch everyday (or talked to iris, but she's annoying) until the last day of school when i had a mental breakdown for being so alone (and did i mention that i also had a crush on her?) if it wasn't for mr leone having that pizza party, things would have ended MUCH worse. ty for reading!!!
Being caring and accepting is hella problematic but if you can handle the mental problems it's really nice. I have that as my personality when it's needed. But hey at least you can change, anyone can IF they try. Keep you're head up!
Y’know, I’m gonna be a hundred percent honest: I showed none of these signs when I began having mental issues, but I’ve had friends who had. Really, just discuss it with them and if they don’t want to talk it’s best to give them time.
I don't want my mom to understand what's going on, but I also really want her to help me. But she's been through a lot the past 3 years and I don't want to worry her any more than she is right now. The most I could ask for was therapy (I couldn't exactly explain why because it was hard for me to do so, but she agreed.) and hope for the best. I'm happy people make videos like this and bring awareness to mental health. This also helped me realize something is definitely wrong with my best friend, so I'm gonna try and help him more. Thank you.
Bro,i can literally feel you,im in a very similar problem as my mother has also been through alot practically most of her life and if she realises im not happy may break her even more,setting that aside,my best friend(most likely only real friend) is far from me as we moved countries so we cant meet in person and discussing online for me doesnt make a much of a difference.The worse thing is that even when im having a good day,the main reason of my (probably,im not diagnosed as i havent told my mother and im never telling my father ever in my damn life,i do not trust him anymore.)depression just comes and ruins it.And even after we go away from that reason,ill be almost alone as here i have some people who i care for left but after we move the only ones ill have is my mother and my little sister.When will i stop getting separated from the ones i love and care about,when will i meet them again,my own father is unpredictable. what do i even do.
I do hope your situation does get better its probably worse than mine.i wish you the best of luck,btw dont assume im hopeless,it still makes me break but i still im trying to hold on.
TLDR: No one listened to me and when they do, nothing is done about it/they have an excuse to do nothing about it, every single time. My problem is people tried to help me too late, and now I’m stuck with a bunch of diagnosed mental health problems, and I barely eat enough to keep myself going. I’m never able to really be the way I want to inside the house I’m in because there’s loads of double standards that the me not being able to part only applies to me and no one else. Every time I’ve tried speaking my mind, I get shut down, told I come off as xyz, I could’ve said or phrased xyz better, I’m too this or that. I’ve tried being kind, and at this point, I don’t give a shit anymore. I’ve tried for 5 and a half years, and I’m done listening, sure I’ll do the chores my mom asks, but I will no longer apologize because they got offended that I feel a certain way, and am telling them to leave me alone as I’m about to blow up. I’m done with their bullshit, and I don’t care if they all have their issues, so do I, but I don’t use it as an excuse to why I can do something and they specifically can’t. (Sorry about the rant and nice video)
I’m sorry that they don’t support you, “my problem is people tried to help me too late” I definitely relate to that. It seems like you’re treated as the scapegoat in the household. It’s not your fault, dealing with being shut down everyday it’s exhausting. Sometimes it be your own family. It sounds like they’re putting you down because they would rather not deal with their own issues. You’re very right about that, and you have the right to be angry because having issues is no excuse to take it out on someone else. Never feel sorry for your emotions & expressing them. I sincerely hope you stay strong. You won’t stay in that house forever. It gets better.
I relate to some of these comments, pushing my emotions aside to comfort others, faking positivity, etc. So my solution was always bottling up stuff and go on with my day, no matter how bad it hurts.
all these tips and signs are really helpful. I havent been going through anything too hard but now i get why a lot of my friends worry about me as i match a lot of these traits.
Dude, seeing this video just shaped me in so many ways. I'm at my lowest when it comes to my mentality right now, with stress, thoughts, and just feeling kinda down. Looking back at this, it didn't just show much about my friends, but about me too, even then I don't like going into depth with that because it gives me the feeling that my mind just makes me feel this way for clout or pity, and that just further adds onto things. This really just made me see things in a bigger picture with what's exactly up with me, and I thank you for that deeply. There's no other's words to say but thank you very much Layla Productions. I also watch another video of yours regarding your hard worked content compare to other less-effort ones, and yeah. It's unfortunately part of RUclips, nothing to do but carry on and strive to do better, but look at the bright side, your acknowledgement and awareness to mental health didn't just pay off for you, but to your audience as well. Had to get this off my shoulders, continue to make content and inspire Layla, I hope you chase after your goals, ambitions and your reasons to make content like this.
mfw i go "yeah im not mentally broken" and then i watch this video to realize i have most if not all of these symptoms of mental struggle: edit: ty guys so much for all the positive words :)) i didn't expect my comment to blow up this much!!! this was sort of made as a joke but i like seeing all the hope and optimism for my situation, no matter what it is. seriously tysm guys :D
i heavily relate to the last one. i often struggle with self-confidence issues, because of myself having experienced bullying at school because of my mental disorders for many years. (adhd and tourettes) once it went to the point of me trying to (ykyk), and luckily i had a friend that was right there at that exact moment, but i havent talked to them in a while due to me not seeing them much in school. i also have been feeling extremely lonely recently, due to myself being ghosted by plenty of my real life friends, them not wanting to talk to me. it makes it feel like its me thats the problem, and i just hate that the friends i care so much about, that are there for me just dont even bother to talk to me or message me. it really messed with my self-confidence, and made me hate myself for who i am. another reason on why i hate myself, is because i can't even be myself when im at school, because if i am, ill just get bullied for it. i hate that i have to be under a mask all the time, and not even be myself. i just wish people could treat people that are different with respect instead of bullying them or making fun of them for something thats out of their control. it makes me feel like theres no hope in humanity. I also love helping others, which is what boosts my will to live, and i often help others more than myself, but recently its been hard due to me not being able to talk to my friends, them being busy, not talking to me, etc. i just wish i had someone that could be there for me no matter what, and that i could have a person to vent to, because if i vent to my parents, they often misunderstand and make it even worse. i have to keep my feelings hidden, because i dont want the situation to get worse, or get called an "attention seeker". (sorry about my little vent. also if its hard to understand what im commenting about, english isnt my first language.)
thank you for this video, im trying my best to learn from you and other youtubers to help out my friends, i really want to help my friends when they specifically ask me for help.... but i don't know if i can do it :(
my friends from where i first lived said i was always a shy and reserved kid, but when i reached 11 or so i became very positive and outgoing, but this was just the mask i put on. i hate myself for what i do but i fear the consequences of not doing it
a good friend of mine unblocked me recently and even tho hes the first of many to come back it gave me hope (funny how it happened literally a day after i tried taking my life)
I'm glad things are starting to feel a little more hopeful for you now, and I'm so sorry that you felt you needed to resort to taking your own life at some point. I encourage you to search for any resources or to contact any close friends regarding this. Much love 💜💜
This is actually really helpful ive kinda struggled to understand how to help those who are struggling cuz ive alawyas been scared that i'll say something wrong and it'll bring them down even more so thanks
That situation awful and I hope you can get through this hard situation. I’m sorry you lost your friend, it sounds like you really cared for this friend and I hope you can get past this tough time.
You said to write your own story in the comments, so here I go. About a month or two ago, my online gf broke up with me from something that could've been solved pretty easily. She's a bit moody, so it wasn't anything too unusual other than the fact that she herself broke up with me, for context she would tell me things like 'i would never break up with you, you'd have to do it' and stuff like that. So, me being me, I panicked and did almost everything I could to try to talk to her. Looking back, that was my mistake. I kept trying to talk to her over and over, in constant worry. I asked my friends since we shared the same friend group, and they said that she basically just pretended I didn't exist. Just hearing that really bothered me a lot, so I got even MORE anxious and kept trying to talk to her MORE. She never really gave me a direct answer on why, but she eventually blocked me, everywhere. Anything that had me involved she removed. Pictures, artwork (she makes beautiful art, some I still have saved and I don't have the guts to delete yet), and more, gone. What makes it worse is I never got any closure, so I just feel like a bottle in the ocean, lost at sea. I didn't even do anything wrong. I treated her right, gave her gifts, always was there for her, comforted her when she got assaulted (the best i could while online), did basically everything for her, and now after promising things like marriage and looking forward to see each other, now it's all gone. While she's blocked me everywhere, sometimes her bios in things are confusing, almost as if she misses me, which just makes me even more confused and hurt. Still doesn't want to talk to me though, says she's scared of talking it out. Also hurts. Now I live almost every day where I think of her at least 10 times. She helped me through high school and I even got a job just specifically for her in mind so I could afford plane tickets one day for us to meet. And it could've been better, I could've given her space and I could've done things differently, but nope, this is how it went down. But that's just life, huh? Well at least I hope me in another universe is happy with her. Oh, also since we are from the same friend group, I left it for her sake, and now nobody talks to me. They say they're here for me but nobody really checks in on me. And if I ask if they want to play they say they're busy playing with 'them' (meaning her and some other people) though honestly i only have one friend who actually cares for me but thats it haha. Anyway that's my sob story 🤣
Number 5 is literally me. And I'm very glad that I'm not the only one going through it and that it's acknowledged by others. I hope everyone suffering from mental health will get better soon, and best of luck.
As someone who lost there father when I was only 8 years old the first one really explains a lot As since I’ve been pretty depressed at a bad age to be depressed
One of my Discord friends (who is also in my Roblox friends list) has recently changed his status to Do Not Disturb, with the bio ‘I’m not fine’ He acts just like he used to: hasn’t stopped building, still acts friendly. And he did say he was fine, but I just don’t know.. you don’t just say ‘I’m not fine’ as a joke. Update: He talked with one of his friends, he’s doing better now :)
I wish I had other people that actually listened to stuff like this for like 2 years. Luckily I have managed to get a friend to really, really help me and I'm very happy about that. Just saying it uh.. would've been nice a little earlier lmao
it could be more like they don’t really answer your texts or something to but they might just have stuff going on with their life so idk if they going share what’s wrong but as a friend you need help them know you will help. You’re underrated you need more views your underrated your content is fking good
the 5th one is me, i don't hide it, i always make fun of my destroyed sanity from being bullied in high school, i learned to live with it and i am working on fixing it fully rn. even tho im over a month late, great vid.
thank you so much for this vid man. i used to have this friend in my neighborhood who was very cheerful and overall, very nice to hang out with. however, things started to go downhill for a variety of reasons, but I tried to be there for them. they have moved away during their stressful time, which did add to their stress, but their doing much better, and we talk ever so often.
I actually have struggled with my mental health in the past due to the first time intense school stress of just so much change of joining a new school and getting intensely bullied and more recently ive been having to deal with loss in this past year ive had to say goodbye to my dog, a family member and my cat luckily ive had people who ive had to help me but its still rough you know
As a person who has dealt with tough family related problems, 3:44 is quite relatable. Back then I ate a lot of greens, but now I mostly meat and less healthy food. 1:38 Had a childhood friend, he used to be more kind, but recently he's been mean, keeps bullying me, and curses at me very often. 10/10 video, educational and pretty relatable.
So I have a friend. She was mistreated and abused by her father and uncle after they drank alcohol at a family party. Her arm was badly injured and it was swelling a lot. Luckily for her she has a friend eho always checks on her. That being me. She said that she was feeling a little bit depressed and explained everything. From there, I helped with every single thing that she was going through. Shes in good spirit now, she's no longer depressed and she's no longer injured.
Always check on your friends. Showing that your care about them allows them to open up about whatever they have been going through. Please give your friends the care and support they deserve.
And if you are the one who has recently gone through something. It's always an option to talk to a trusted friend about it. You don't have to go through things alone. But please please please please please Don't hide your problems
Hi :D I dont think i have any of those,But my friend Heroninoz,Kept saying i used to be lighthearted,friendly and were very supportive.. Now im a bit "cold," get pissed at small things where he just tease me lightly,What used to be replying with Jokes,Long words to me just saying "Okay." "Cool." And we had to go through with almost breaking our friendship apart. Though Honestly,I dont think nothing much diffrent happened to me. I cried too much from little things,Get angry from small things either way. I really dont know why i kept crying at smallest things honestly,I dont get forced by something i know of it,but i just keep crying. He also have problems,But i dont really think i can. My parents,who ive been so uncomfortable with (They're nice. But they used to hit me as punishment. But they dont now,I promise they're good people :D) And friends that i keep drifting off to. Thank you for reading this lol. Rn im somehow crying. But i think im still supportive. Im trying to. I mean,I have chatted to people who had liked my stuff in other platforms,and thanked them. Im sorry if. I added to much.
I’m possibly autistic and also possibly have ADHD. I stumbled upon this video through my foreign friends messaging me about this video. After watching this I just cant stop thinking about my current life situations. Recently at school i’ve been feeling more overwhelmed, not just by homework and tests but also my classmates. I’ve done a few bad things in the past (keep this in mind) but my class just can’t seem to get over these things even though they’re very small. I’m not talking about my teachers - just my classmates. They keep talking about these things as if I’ve robbed a bank. After i’ve done a bad thing, even the smallest one, it just spreads to the whole school like covid 19 and everyone’s just like “oh, your phone got confiscated cuz you used it in class right?” And the incident they talk about is from a few years ago. When this started i was just calmly responding “yeah, i know.” but as this kept getting more frequent i got more impatient over it. Even some of my schoolmates of the same level as me use this to shame me and use it in examples why no one likes me. Yes, it’s true, next to no one likes me, but they talk about things that happened a few or maybe many years ago, and it just seems like they can’t get over it. This led to me being inadvertently notorious in school for all the wrong reasons, and i just feel too overwhelmed by this and i cant solve it whatsoever because i cant control others. Another thing id like to go over is me being accused way too much in school. Like i mentioned earlier, i was notorious in school for all the wrong reasons. This bad reputation of me led to another situation occurring - people wrongly accusing me. Usually when they see something drawn on a wall in school they’d accuse me of doing it even though i’ve never done such a thing before, and they’d say “nope, you did it” This is also the case with some of my teachers. A few months before some of my exams started, my parents prohibited me from playing any video games. However even with this, for some class tests when I didn’t get a good score my teacher would always say “stop playing your B.S. games and study!”, making me feel extremely aggravated. Yes, i also have a bad reputation of playing too much games and worsening me academically but this only happened many years ago - possibly in lower primary. I’m currently a secondary school student (i’m singaporean) and these two situations just overwhelm me too much and make my life very miserable to me. Thanks for letting me have a space to pour out all my emotions, i barely have anyone to talk to.
Again, another thing I’d like to add on is about my friends expectations of me. One of them and I have recently began planning on making a Roblox game but my friend is trying to take me way too overboard just for these. For instance, for game funds we would need robux right? My friend told me to go and WORK IRL for money just for roblox giftcards. I don’t even have a job, i’m still a student. This is the only few friends i have, i’ve been with him for a long time, but he’s been worsening in terms of his sense of friendship. If i’m not friends with him i wouldn’t feel alright. Even with him i would also not feel alright. I’ve fallen way too deep into this hole and can never come up. At first when i befriended him he was alright, always thinking for me and about me, but over the years he’s pretty much worsened. I really would like someone who can help me about these problems I have in life right now.
I remember when I was in school on Tuesday morning before school. I heard someone say that I was "too selfish' and it just stuck with me... and years later I asked them if I was selfish just to get it off my chest since I have been feeling down ever since and couldn't move on from the snarky comment. Luckily they said I wasn't, which really, and I mean really helped a lot which got me to do more of the things I love.
thank you for this video man. before i wouldnt know if my friends are going through stuff at all, and now i know if they are or not from this video so thank you.
i went through alot of things in my life and now i feel completely empty and lack of empathy, its been to a point i dont even care about my struggling, its been like this all my life and i dont have any friends nor family, at this point i dont even know what to do.
I’m seeing this in both me and my best friend of my whole life. There’s been moments where we didn’t talk much, but not as bad as cut communication. The worst was some months of nothing. In that time he had (key word had) a girlfriend. So I was completely fine with it, he’s a year and 11 days older than me, and a lot better off than me too. It’s been rough for me for about 3 to 4 years now, will be the 4 year mark in december. And many of these describe me right now. I used to be very VERY talkative, but it would take a good topic to get me going, but once I do I just dont stop. I used to be one of the best in my grade for math. I used to be very caring. Now I’m just this hollow husk waiting for some light in my days. I’m not as caring as I used to be and wish to be, even though I’m an empath. I am much more silent and closed off. I’m slowly losing my desire for my dreams (cars, in general project cars and racing, and then music, if I feel like it maybe making some games). Day by day I just lose amazing Ideas, and they’ll never come back. I once had an amazing story of a driver who was used by his tuners to win them money, and was then attemptedly murdered, suffering life altering injuries. That’s as much as I remember. I used to take care of myself, now I just wake up, do general tasks, watch something, sleep. I’m just waiting till I can finally do the hobbies I want. Couple years ago, not the 4 years ago mark. I broke my computer. Since then I’ve been far calmer, but far sadder and more bored. I’m stuck with an xbox and cant afford a computer. I want s computer so I can continue my passions more. But we struggle even for the bills. Life is a gun in the back. You get a good start, then it fires, and then you wait years for the recovery.
Im at the point where i barely bother hiding my problems. Alotta people know im struggling but no one really does much about it including my family and myself.
I always wanted to break the ice and talk alot more but after certain events in my life and stuff that happened recently, I started turning away and bottle up even more. Once I was relatively happy and outspoken guy, turned into a quiet self destructive and mentally unwell comedian. I always thought that if i just push away or ignore my problems and help others i'll feel fine but it never felt that way. I'm too afraid to talk too cluttered and too useless to find a solution to everything I've been facing. I feel overwhelmed and when I do have friends to talk to I just let go and start to feel like i'm wasting their time. I'm too attached and still face with trust problems. I don't even know if the people I call friends call me friends, i just don't know anymore.
I always want to cry, just let things out seek help and such but I can't imagine how taxing it can be to the people I seek it from, I never felt this useless or felt unimportant. This isn't a joke or making it dramatic, I was planning to kill myself last year to just end it all because who would want someone like me as their friend? Thankfully few goods things came as a clutch and I've been out of that mindset since, things dont get better that I have adhd *diagnosed by a doctor, I was 7* I really do wonder if all of this is my doing where I got myself here, I did this to myself and I dragged my ass down to this cesspool. I never once blamed or shamed people, I'm a kind soul at heart but i feel used because of it.
Since you try to push away or ignore your problems by distracting yourself----which isn't working out, perhaps you should face the problem by telling someone. You could talk to someone you really really trust (you said you have trust issues), like the person who you trust the most out of everyone you know. If you feel or think that something is wrong, you should tell a friend and just not push it away. You aren't wasting their time by telling them your concerns---whether its about a minor topic or a more serious topic!! Please don't kill yourself! Life may seem gloomy and it may suck, but just keep going! There are people out there who want you to live! I may be a 13 yr old stranger on the internet, but I'd like you to be happy. Have a great day/night.

This really is the first Roblox channel where there's no comedy, no jokes, no gameplay, only discussing serious topics. Took a while for a channel like this to be made, and I'm happy for it.
Yeah they made the scenes themselves as well
@@Tryhar_D very high quality channel do recommend 👍
Thank you for the support :)
hey guys thanks for the likes! grateful for it and im excited to see some more videos!
So real though like its a break from usual roblox stuff
My problem with mental health is that I always feel too embarrassed to discuss it when I finally get a decent opportunity.
everyone feels emotions. while there are certainly situations where opening up would be more awkward or "socially inappropriate", when you get the chance you kinda just have to take a chance on your friends/family/other people. there's a good chance they'll be able to relate to whatever you're going through to some degree, and maybe even offer advice, like how they've gotten through the same situation in the past.
fr and when you do open up they use it against you or if your talking to a therapist they could send you to a mental hospital
for me, i deal with a similar problem, but instead of being too embarrassed to discuss it, i become excited at the opportunity to the point i essentially forget practically everything i was going to say; my mood is like shitty object permanence - if i'm not feeling horrible, it feels as if i've never felt horrible ever, and vice versa
well kinda same here, tho Murder drones helped me a lot with mental health stuff, for some odd reason.. but ill take it
also hope you are doing well
@@Sans-iv1wy MD definitely helped me, too. I felt like I could never fit in because I didn’t like any of the movies or shows other people did.
"Staying away from once-loved activities"
I feel that in a mile away...
coming from myself writing poetry to another person...
*I feel deeply about that*
Well, maybe it's a sign of change that will happen in life? I've been feeling the same for a whole damn year, and i've been chasing the love and passion in tihngs i don't love anymore. But i found new ones, quite different from my older preffered activities.
@@Hadeth_a_stepa yeah, for me,
(instead of beginning to work with poetry, I ended up with writing story arc's)
but yeah that's kinda the change of style I have leading myself to this point,
but hey it's thoughtful to leave a reply on this comment...
"Staying away from once-loved activities"
No way im mentally struggling just bc i dont play roblox anime games with my gaming pal anymore

@@UxhatUs It's not about not liking an activity anymore, it's about lack of any activity overall.
“A change in appetite” YES. EXACTLY. This is something huge for me and a few other people I know and if you’re looking for a change in your friend this is definitely something you should look out for.
I know this is a little late and probably wont be seen by anyone but, when I transitioned from 5th grade into middle school I started to develop some really bad thoughts of worthlessness and self hatred. This was most likely due to all the bullying I received and just hiding it from everyone. I know it's not really a good thing to discuss on RUclips but I did indulge in some self damaging and self degradation acts including a knife (I wont go any further with that i'm sure you can fill in the blanks). I also kept all my emotions up in a big bottle and smiled through it for fear of being a burden to my friends and family.
Things didn't really get better in 7th and 8th grade puberty hit me like a truck and made my emotions all the more overwhelming. By this point I had kept up my facade of mental stability so long that I had developed a serious case of smiling depression and every day felt worse than the last. As my 7th grade year ended my cheery personality had been slowly degrading and turned more solemn and monotone. When 8th grade started and the bullying picked up again I had to psychically stop myself from lashing out. I had played out scenarios in my head where I beat every single one to a bloody pulp and mocked them; it was a dark time for me.
I also stopped myself from having a mental breakdown because I didn't want to show vulnerability. I just felt like if I told someone they would act differently around me and stop being that one friend who would do the wildest things and start being more cautious and empathetic. I know it sounds stupid I didn't want that but, I just didn't want change. I was all under a lot of stress and mental pressure because of my smiling depression my grades started to slip which made my parents get on me and I was getting ready for a taekwondo exam and finals were coming up and I just felt so, so alone. I also started noticing my losses in games a lot more, it didn't matter if I won I just gave my teammates all the credit and when I lost I grew into the mindset I wasn't good at anything.
I guess my teacher noticed one day and it was partially due to a personal narrative I was writing at the time but she had called the school counselor to see if I was okay. And even though I had the perfect opportunity to vent all of my anger, frustration, loneliness, worthlessness, and all of that... I lied through my teeth I told the counselor I was fine and made up some intellectual sounding excuses. I had reached my breaking point many times and from all the depression I had started to go a little insane and developed some psychopathic tendencies. I won't go into much detail, that would take too long but long story short I had written some pretty messed up stories which were hinted at with the mental scenarios earlier.
Multiple times I was on the verge of a mental breakdown but I found my solace in music; Whenever I was about to burst I just went somewhere quiet and played a song by Tally Hall or Miracle Musical or The Ink Spots. Most notably Turn The Lights Off, I don't want to set the world on fire, and Dream Sweet in Sea Major. I started to grow more hostile and my usual cheery attitude had been corroded by rage and hostility. Still, I didn't want to be a burden and no matter how much I wanted to, I stopped myself from asking for help. I just felt so alone in my world of pain mad suffering I had no one to relate to and I sometimes wasn't able to stop myself from lashing out I had snapped one day and while playing a PE game one of my bullies got in my way and I just full force shoulder bashed him to the ground.
After a while I guess I snapped. I either went full psychopath or fully insane (give or take) and I just didn't feel bothered by my bottled up emotions anymore. I had kept my smiling depression and my emotions bottled up for so long I had become numb to it I tried to cry when I thought about it. But I just couldn't, I eventually told one of my friends about my self damaging acts because he vented to me about his and I wanted him to know I understood his pain he's is the only one to this day who knows the full extent of my situation not even my parents or siblings know.
It's now a little later (about a year) and I still haven't vented to anyone, nowadays I'm a little shyer and I hate to make people feel like i'm a burden to them or inconvenience them in any way. This is mainly a problem with me not wanting to bother my teachers or other people for help. I'm a little like my old self and I've been seeing a lot more mentally motivating content like this and it's made me want to be like my old self. I don't think i'll ever be the same and I don't think i'll tell anyone about my trauma but I guess this is a way I can share my story and help other people realize they do need to express their emotions. In my case I got lucky by keeping a very thin line of self control but people in my situation have reset their character in real life... I'm sure you know what I mean. The last thing I have to share is I also didn't want to seek professional help because I felt like my case just wasn't important enough or the therapist would think i'm faking it. Anyways if this comment manages to get enough attention and y'all want me to get help then maybe... just maybe... i'll do it
Here's my favorite quote to represent my story, "what you hear from me is the truth I wouldn't tell you if it wasn't, would I?" -Clyde Blackburn
P.S. Sorry if this is a little long I guess I just wanted to help other people, bye bye!
ik this is very late but I hope ur doing okay
I once had a horrible day to the point of mental breakdown due to parental pressure and fear of the future (though only for a few minutes)
Next day, I couldn't care less about anything, whether it be my friends, whatever they were teaching in school, or.. myself.
I... felt empty, it felt like my life had gone to waste, and anything I do to recover it won't matter.
Thankfully, I had good friends, which cheered me up for basically the entire day and convinced me to just take it easy for a while.
Which I did, and now I'm back stronger than ever.
@@Zqily Hey man youre strong dont forget that, theres strength through our greatest adversities and where would we like to draw wisdom through our experiences is simply written "Out of suffering emerged the strongest souls, the most massive characters are seered with scars". Take care, i hope you find whatever it is youre looking for (✿^‿^)
I'm glad things have gotten better because you had friends who were there for you. I hope things continue to get better for you :)

This really remember about when i was a kid, i really feel empty because i had no friends. Just waiting someone come to me and try become my friend in school, but this really go to days, weeks, months, even years i get a really good friend out of school when i get 11 years but i still feel empty in the school and the home (about the part of care less about anything was the same for me) all i was only doing is see the network in my computer (with 8 years) like a way of escape from this reality
But after someone finally become my friend when try in school, like 14 years i really get new friends for waiting, but some times i still feel empty when i am alone or i try walk around the city with my friends.
Actually i am a Brazillian with 15 years
lucky you! mine didn't notice anything about me. Maybe I'm just too good at masking those bottled up emotions using energetic vibes and only the happiness out of every available emotion in the bottle. -the mental breakdown can delay I guess?
no but I do think it's still clearly visible by how I meet up with my good ol' friends less often and stopped playing around with them during class, in other words preferring to be alone most times.
this channel deserves more views, its too underrated :sob:
Been doing my best to get us back and running 😅
honestly, all I struggle with is if my friends would still like me if they knew what I watched, because I used to be SUPER open with friends and send them countryball shorts, until one of them asked me to stop sending them. And then I just figured "well, they probably hate me now"

Same here 😭
I feel like nobody talks about appetite, but especially when someone starts eating less. We’re so used to diet culture, people don’t think about it as self destructive. We need nutrition to keep going. I had a breakdown and stopped eating for a full week, lost the most weight I had in years, and was told I looked good for losing weight. It would’ve been the case, if not for the worst reasons. Thank you for highlighting that struggle.
I'm so sorry that there was a time you felt you had to put your appetite away because of an unfortunate breakdown. There's been a multitude of factors surrounding social media that continues to drive nutrition away (e.g. fast food brands, tiktok "diet hacks," stigmatizing other diets or ways to eat such as forcing others to be vegan or mediterranean, etc.). Watching you or someone else's appetite in a positive way can mean a lot despite how on-the-surface it may look at first.
@@OO0RI ouch, that’s the kind of stuff that could start eating disorders if it continues
Thanks, I'll talk to one of my friends about that because lately she's been acting different like she used to
Man. This video definitely hit harder than I expected. I’m currently 22 Dealing with several issues that I never thought I’d ever have to face. I have Paranoid Schizophrenia, OSDD-1b, BPD, Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, And Autism.
This video was really an eye opener for me, but it’s an eye opener that has been re-occurring for years on end. Within the past 4 years I’ve had life absolutely kick my ass.
I’ve been left by over half of what my friend group was due to a single person who hated me spreading horrifically gross accusations against me, Been in the hospital multiple times because of my own hand, And I’ve now been raising my 14 year old sibling by myself after getting my horrifically abusive mother arrested and have struggled with money to the point of being borderline homeless 24/7.
I’ve had so many ups and downs constantly that its gotten to the point where I can’t even bring myself to bounce back, and sort of wallow in my own feelings and self doubts because professional’s don’t really even know how to help me anymore.
I’ve been diagnosed with so many things and yet I wake up every day and know that there’s something wrong with me but yet I can never find an answer, and it’s completely destroyed my personal life. Art and Animation used to be a passion of mine but now I can barely even push myself to get through a single drawing, and I usually just lay in bed talking to my friends and watching youtube 24/7 because I don’t really know what to do with myself, and I was never taught how to deal with my emotions as an adult because I’m always expected to be perfectly fine since I’m not a kid anymore.
Seeing stuff like this makes me feel a bit better because I know that there are some younger people out there who can actually watch this and know how to help themselves and others and do what I never could as a kid. Kudos to you man, it is amazing to see and its the kind of content we need more of in these trying times ❤
I relate to you a lot. I have BPD as well, it’s been a struggle with loneliness because I was kicked out of a friend group due to my mental health and one of my closest friends just couldn’t stand me anymore. I’m currently 20 & although I love Roblox, I quit because i was just trying to recreate old memories again. Thank you for sharing, even in comment sections like this i don’t feel as isolated.
I wish only better for you, don't lose hope
Your story really made me feel genuinely heartbroken, I hope you will feel better and eventually find a way out of all this hell. I don't personally know you, but I want you to remember that us people behind a screen love you ❤
Man even tho we dont talk anymore and my words mean nothing, it makes me so happy seeing you reach goals, and yk being able to do what u do!
Hi, Voidz! It really has been a while since we last talked 😅
I hope you eventually reach your RUclips goals soon! You can always message me anytime :)
@@MrVoidzYT Awww, so wholesome
I remember doing all these five things in 2nd grade. I had depression in the worst way possible. Still having dark memories of it. 2nd grade changed my life that used to happy. I cried when listening to this because it made me remember my dark moments
i once had a fake friend for 6 years that absolutely destroyed me inside im still trying to recover thanks for making this! :)
i only watch these kind of videos to cope and at least relate to something that is familiar to me, as they show how i be actin sometimes
i do see myself in those clips, it motivates me to be better mentally and physically, as well as stop those bad mental health signs, and maybe even reach out to someone.
I'm so glad these videos are relatable and you feel more motivated to improve physiologically. I hope these videos continue to help you out with whatever you may be going through 💜💖
as someone who is mentally struggling, this is all real
I'm only two minutes in but uh. I was cyber-bullied at a young age for around four years and only last year did I have the courage to leave him and his group of friends. He also did in fact take one of my best friends with him and he started bullying me too. I have new best friends now though and I love them to the moon and back and will be very grateful for them. I'm not diagnosing myself but I'm pretty sure I had or still have depression. She's slowly helping me feel like myself again as I've started smiling and laughing and being silly again. Being a lot less negative and spending more time with my siblings. I'm very grateful for them and I don't know what I'd do without them.
One time, in seventh grade (I won’t mention my current grade for privacy), a friend of mine somehow picked up on my secrecy and said “Dude, are you bipolar?”
I didn’t understand that word at the time. Then I went home and googled it. And I absolutely sank that night. I cried my eyes out in my room because I knew full well that he was right.
And as of late, I’ve been trying to keep myself in even more secrecy, and I’m constantly forcing myself into a happier attitude, because I hate when people worry about me. Not because it bothers me, but because I feel it’s not worth the time and effort, like I’m not worth worrying over.
How to make a Bacon and Cheese Omelette Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Omelette. Take 3 eggs and mix them with a small amount of milk. Then, put the mixture into a 10 inch round frying pan. Put the lid of the frying pan on and set the heat to 5/med. Wait until the mixture has no raw/wet spots. Now, put a reasonable amount of mild cheddar onto the cooked egg mixture. You can also put bacon with if that’s what you prefer. After, fold the omelette once (it should look like a semicircle). Now, take the omelette out of the pan.
Grilled Cheese. Take two slices of Brioche bread and spread some lightly salted butter or mayo on one side of each slice of bread. Then put a slice of Vermont cheddar cheese on the opposite sides of the bread slices. Put the omelette in between the bread slices (the butter and cheese should be connected to the bread during this process. Now, put this sandwich onto the same pan. Cook each side to your liking, whether it’s perfectly cooked or not. After you are done cooking it, cut it down the middle so that there are to triangle slices of grilled cheese.
Enjoy
Thanks for this video, bro, I’ll remember to watch this
I hope these recipes help anyone who may feel they or a friend are having a change in appetite. :)

After watching this video, i finally realized whats going on with one of my friends. I'm going to try my best to help them, i don't like seeing people i know and love just suffer and hide from things that keep hurting them, i wanna help them.
I hope things start to get better for you and your friends. It can always hurt seeing someone fall down behind your back and feeling unsure on how to help them.
@@Layla.Productions I've been doing my best for them, and finding ways to help them if they are in any problems.
Man the last one kinda describes how I don’t even care for myself I bottle up my feelings, help others instead of myself, and few other things so yea :3
i'm sorry to hear that, i wish u the best in life
I'm sorry about that. However, whether you have a family member, partner, or just a close friend to go to, it's always a good idea to talk to them about how you feel. If you don't have many or lack trust, you can always make a new friend and slowly talk to them, whether physically or online.
Don't light yourself on fire to warm others around you 💜
School is starting for me in a few days that alone just makes me destroy myself more with how I procrastinate on homework which I force myself to stay up at night to finish it on time ( thanks for the nice comments btw
Im suicidal and this is SO true
same thing here i always bottle it and helped my friends higher than everyone and myself
i'm autistic, i have adhd, i have ocd, and i may also be cyclothymic or bipolar
i deal with ocd and a lot of obsessive thoughts extremely often, especially regarding moral issues or activism related stuff which often trigger me and make me feel so shameful to the point of s.h
i never learned how to forgive myself because as long as i ever did anything bad, it will always haunt me forever, plus often times what things i did wrong wasn't even out of bad intention, it's just me being silly or doing something without realizing that it could be harmful
and because of that, to me i feel like my responsibilities are the same as my faults, because despite me being responsible for many things, i am unable to change my behavior because to me it's just natural curious behavior - either that or i just have habits i can't get rid of because they've been lifelong and if i were to get rid of it it would really hurt me or damage me because i can't live without those habits - because of that, anything i am responsible for eventually becomes my fault because i am literally unable to do anything to change my behavior because i become paralyzed when i try to approach that topic because all i think about when approaching whatever topic regarding what things i am responsible for is that i fear people punishing me
(i also deal with pocd rather often too, i have some sensory k1nks involving specific clothing like baggy shorts or socks and stuff but i fear it may be misinterpreted as... y'know)
(twitter is the bane of my existence, i used to doomscroll quite often, and plus because of my family and sibling scenario and the fact that due to that i'm not allowed to go outside very often, i have been sheltered for nearly my entire life, meaning i had to rely on the internet for more than 90 percent of my knowledge - i've gotten banned from countless communities online because i kept venting in places i shouldn't be but i had no other choice; i couldn't get a therapist at the time, and i couldn't really tell my parents because they were very unpredictable in their opinions which made me afraid to approach them)
i also find it very difficult to apologize for things i feel most guilty about because, to me, apologizing makes me feel vulnerable or weak, and i think one of the possible causes is me being forced to apologize during my childhood over things i didn't really even have a bad intention about - such as stimming but accidentally breaking someone's boundaries doing so, or perhaps copying a behavior that i didn't realize was bad at the time
my mood also fluctuates extremely often; if i'm in a good mood, i essentially forget every time i've ever felt bad, and if i'm in a bad mood, i essentially forget every time i've ever felt good
to me, my mood is like having poor object permanence; if an object isn't right in front of me and clearly visible to me, then it doesn't exist
i don't tend to make self deprecating jokes and i don't tend to show too many signs that i struggle which make it hard for others to see that i am struggling
and only in a few instances at school where i end up becoming overwhelmed do i start raging and screaming at the top of my lungs (that has happened multiple times, my dad used to yell often too but character-wise he's much better now than then)
and when i make vents online, i tend to write them in pretty verbose ways, inflated with philosophical thoughts and arguments that i struggle to resolve; either i do that or i start off my vents in a vague manner before i become frantic and use more keywords related to what i'm talking about until it eventually becomes super blunt and revealing of personal details
in general i just feel like i'm running aimlessly and the only plans i have for the future for me to seem less as if i'm winging life in general is to just disguise and mask everything i do in logic or philosophies employing variables i only ever got the gist of (meaning i'm probably using a ton of definitions wrong but i'm being so verbose that no one can recognize i'm spouting gibberish) and hope that no one finds out what i'm really doing and view me as if i have an ulterior motive because i don't
i don't think i ever truly had any ulterior motives, as an autistic person i tend to be pretty honest, but i just fear that people misinterpret me as having ulterior motives or maybe that i do have ulterior motives, only just subconscious ulterior motives driving me to do morally gray or questionable things where i fawn and disguise it as entirely okay
oh, and also, one more thing
metaphorically, i never strike to assault, i only strike to defend
another analogy to explain this is using positive and negative numbers - i never add a positive value to enter the positive range (self-indulgence), i only add a positive value to exit the negative range (self-preservation)
i only ever fear what people are capable of punishment-wise
Im so sorry for you😞
I read the entire thing
I dont know how to help you but i can try to get your feelings or atleast be a person that you can trust
Also, your feelings are valid, your not crazy ❤
Oh my god, you are extremely similar to me..
Man, I'm so sorry for you. I don't know you, but you're awesome, please remember that.
i hope u see this, ur not alone
(gonna copy your format here because its much more cleaner than a long paragraph hope u dont mind lol)
-this is one of the most relatable things I've seen in a long time.
-i too struggle with OCD and only recently have been mentioned to may have depression (im not too suicidal just more of sad) and ADHD. it's quite a living hell when all i can think about is being clean to the point where my handwashes and showers times are extremely long.
-i too struggle with forgiving myself when ive unintentionally or accidentally done something bad. or even if someone puts the blame on me for something i cant help (this relating to my OCD) i would still feel bad for and sometimes feel like there is something wrong with me
-my mood also fluctuates like yours, when im doing good i forget when i felt bad and when im doing bad i forget when i felt good also descending into an endless spiral with negative thoughts relating to what made me feel bad
-excluding my mood and about my parents, whenever im dealing with my OCD well it seems like my parents dont acknowledge it until i mention it to them. when im not dealing with my OCD well (which is completely normal since progression isnt always going to go up, its a zig-zag of down and ups) it feels like my parents attack me for it. even though they really do care and worry about me, what they say to me that they think will "help" just brings me down and is sometimes utter useless (me having some of language barrier too since im born american)
-some other thing is that I have no self-confidence whatsoever. i hardly think that some things i can do are cool and i mostly think down on myself for the things i have done bad (mentioned above)
-im too afraid to talk about my other problems because they seem so wrong and disgusting to me, myself, but ill just keep dealing with. i want to keep walking but its so hard sometimes yk?
these arent my full thoughts but ill like to get this out to you 👍❤
I do not go outside often.
Honestly the things I like to do are the things my parents don’t want me to do.
So I thought, “Why can’t they accept what their child likes to have instead of forcing them to be better?”
Because they think I will become a bad person. That’s just their opinion.
Whenever they force me to stop, I still continued.
Whenever I say something bad, they get mad at me.
But I do not care about their words. This is MY life. No one can control my actions in the future. I have my choices confirmed and followed.
Whenever I am alone, I feel like something isn’t right on my back.
Loneliness terrifies me the more I stay alone, relying on my own questions and answers for my life to continue.
That’s why I always talk to my friends. I need their opinions on what I should do, and their suggestions for seeing if that makes a change in my life.
I talk to them because I cannot stay alone at home in one corner, feeling the shivery presence of such souls.
I also talk to my self conscious, or that’s what I call, for my very opinions about certain situations, but sometimes I treat it differently than how I see it in my eyes.
For example, one person being harmed by the other. If I saw that, I would help the victim. But if I’m the victim, I get distressed and serious. If I’m the bully, I laugh in insanity.
I hate how it is to be extraordinary. I’m like an introvert because I stay at home like 99% of my life now, but I used to go everywhere and enjoy the rays of the sun, or enjoy the puddles of the rain.
I wished I stayed the same as my past self. Yet I already changed. I cannot turn back now and I have to deal with the present.
I also cannot eat properly. Sometimes when I am doing something I like to do, I felt like eating later. But I eat only snacks from to kitchen. So I’m not feeling the right way I should be feeling. And also, I wished to be free from limitations. I cannot stay at the bottom line forever, you know? I try to stand tall like the others, but there are downsides too. Like being envied by many people because of my sudden rise of talent. I don’t really brag about it much, but some say they are good at something they actually cannot do, and vice versa.
*sigh* some people can change while some can’t.
idk but this channel is just so underrated
Sorry for your friend
I stay away from people constantly I don't like to be with other people... I don't know why but when I was a kid I was.. so..... energetic? It just doesn't come to me anymore... it hurts to go back to memories of me actually having fun times because they rarely ever happen these days... It's really just a struggle for most people including myself to think of reasons to I guess... Exist? not being able to find what suits them.. it's better for most to help each other out and even though I'm self destructive mainly.. I will at least take into note some of the things you said in this for some other friends I stopped talking to a while back.. Thanks!
(and thank you User for listening to what I had to say... I rarely ever talk about stuff like this... and.. this video just mainly brought up these topics from in me and I couldn't resist to not talk about them.. Thank you for sticking around and reading this..)
I'm no expert, but i think you're depressed my man. Try to talk to someone out this.
@@qwerty-o9h I mean even myself I know that just I'm not open to talking about stuff like this yet..
@@Mr.Malware1299 Maybe to at least help or make your situation better, just starting saying out loud that positive comments about yourself. It can be appearance-wise, hobby-wise, and whatever---just make sure its a positive comment.

Me: have all the signs of mentally suffering
Also me: still acting careless
(Me and some others is a special case,but you should go look at yourself again if you got even a light change in mental. Thats all,stay helthy,stay heppy,and most importantly,stay sene :D)
Yo! I'm braindead. And I am a part of the majority that have depression. It all started when I started growing up where my parents had to
change their attitude towards me, since well, I am getting more mature of course. But their attitude was kind of different than the usual ones
where they give light punishments. Oh! No, no, no. They liked hitting me over the smallest things. Like: Being clumsy, spilling a bit of water,
singing at lunch or dinner, etc. And yeah, this all started when I was 7. I am now 12 years old and still suffers from their mentally crushing
punishments. I do not feel emotions anymore, I don't care when they give me sermons and stuff, and yeah. That's basically it. I hope people
learn in this video that their friend isn't always actually happy, but is trying their best to cover their sadness and hardships. And when that's the
case, you should always comfort them. Remember, If you two separate one day and have no way of communicating, you will either remember
them in your heart, *or just become a burning memory.* That's all I have to say, thank ya!!
I'm sorry that you feel you are being mistreated over the simplest things, and I thank you for telling us that. I would try to talk to a close friend about this whenever possible, seeing that you may not be able to go to your parents or reach out to a therapist regarding this.
Try to stay safe! 💜💜
it's a blessing to have found you
thank you for telling me, now i can know the tips and pretend im always happy!!
this is the first animation type content that didn’t have unhinged jokes or any “trend like things”
hey! just wanted to say that ive enjoyed your videos alot, some are interesting, some are relatable, and some are one the sad side, but theyve still helped me through some times so id like to leave this comment and say thinks!
I'm glad to hear that our videos have helped you get through some difficult times in life :)
I lowkey miss the positive content but this content is bringing in the views that you deserve so 👍
This is positive content
Yeah, I tried to integrate some more positivity in my recent videos, since it's always good to look at the positive side of life as well 😁
this video almost made me cry because I'm going through this myself, I'm not mentally well. I'm not self-diagnosing it's just... I don't feel like myself anymore and I sometimes feel empty, today I had a really bad parental issue because of abuse, and I cried for around an hour straight, but I usually try to ignore it as much as possible and try to move on thinking this is alright... and to be honest it really isn't. and my friends have been worrying a lot more about me after it has gotten worse, and I seem emotionless now. I love that people are spreading awareness about others, it gives me at least some hope..
I also go out of my way to try and help my other friends before helping myself, I don't show any care or love for myself really..
You gotta take care of yourself too, you’re in a situation where you don’t have much control over what happens. But there’s one thing they can’t take away, and that’s your mental autonomy. You may not be able to control your thoughts or feelings, but it’s up to you to take care of yourself & love yourself so you can be resilient, and get out of the abuse one day. But we all need to help each other. You deserve a good life. Start with being open to your friends. They’re worried, let them help you.
@@aobaichiko122 thank you, I'll try my best.
These signs are so true. I remember when I was in a tough time and struggling (I'm doing a lot better now) I exhibited all of the signs in the video. Please, if you're worried about your friends, let them know you care about them and that they can open up to you about their struggles.
Forgot to mention this, but another sign a friend needs help is if they isolate themselves from everyone else. Like if they decline your invites every time you want to hang out with them. I did this often when I wasn't doing so well, and my best friend would often ask me why I didn't ever want to hang out with her and if she did something wrong. I didn't give her a straight answer and told her it wasn't her and it was me when she asked me this because I didn't quite know either why I was so disinterested in hanging out with her even though she was literally my best friend and I wasn't ever upset with her. What I'm just trying to get at is that it helps a lot if you and your friends are honest and transparent with each other on how you are feeling and if you or your friend needs help.
However, you should look at the person deeper, not everyone is gonna be like the signs mentioned in the video, some, like me before, can hide these just by fake smiling, their smiles will always look very genuine, but deep down, when their alone, they aren't doing very well with their mental health. Make sure to always ask someone how they're doing and also try to look deeper into them if they're hiding something, and if they are, just reach out.
this is accurate 😭, i have been quite down lately and my appetite has gone on a major decline.
I'm sorry to hear you've been feeling down lately, and your appetite has been in a decline. I hope this video helps you in finding a friend who may help you with whatever you may feel 😊💜
i had this friend named ziah and she was struggling with mental health when i met her so i changed my personality to be more caring and accepting toward her.
this was a recipe for disaster.
she started to tell me that i was making her uncomfortable when she's the one making ME uncomfortable because she's hypersexual.
and i had no other friends because i always talked to her.
so, being kind and understanding, i stayed away from her and sat alone at lunch everyday (or talked to iris, but she's annoying)
until the last day of school when i had a mental breakdown for being so alone (and did i mention that i also had a crush on her?)
if it wasn't for mr leone having that pizza party, things would have ended MUCH worse.
ty for reading!!!
Being caring and accepting is hella problematic but if you can handle the mental problems it's really nice. I have that as my personality when it's needed. But hey at least you can change, anyone can IF they try. Keep you're head up!
This channel is actually really underrated
Y’know, I’m gonna be a hundred percent honest: I showed none of these signs when I began having mental issues, but I’ve had friends who had. Really, just discuss it with them and if they don’t want to talk it’s best to give them time.
I don't want my mom to understand what's going on, but I also really want her to help me. But she's been through a lot the past 3 years and I don't want to worry her any more than she is right now. The most I could ask for was therapy (I couldn't exactly explain why because it was hard for me to do so, but she agreed.) and hope for the best. I'm happy people make videos like this and bring awareness to mental health. This also helped me realize something is definitely wrong with my best friend, so I'm gonna try and help him more. Thank you.
Bro,i can literally feel you,im in a very similar problem as my mother has also been through alot practically most of her life and if she realises im not happy may break her even more,setting that aside,my best friend(most likely only real friend) is far from me as we moved countries so we cant meet in person and discussing online for me doesnt make a much of a difference.The worse thing is that even when im having a good day,the main reason of my (probably,im not diagnosed as i havent told my mother and im never telling my father ever in my damn life,i do not trust him anymore.)depression just comes and ruins it.And even after we go away from that reason,ill be almost alone as here i have some people who i care for left but after we move the only ones ill have is my mother and my little sister.When will i stop getting separated from the ones i love and care about,when will i meet them again,my own father is unpredictable. what do i even do.
I do hope your situation does get better its probably worse than mine.i wish you the best of luck,btw dont assume im hopeless,it still makes me break but i still im trying to hold on.
As someone with some mental health problems, im trying to see signs of distress in other people so i can help them! This video helps a lot! :]
as someone who is mentally struggling, i shall use this video to make sure nobody knows i am mentally struggling, take that
TLDR: No one listened to me and when they do, nothing is done about it/they have an excuse to do nothing about it, every single time.
My problem is people tried to help me too late, and now I’m stuck with a bunch of diagnosed mental health problems, and I barely eat enough to keep myself going. I’m never able to really be the way I want to inside the house I’m in because there’s loads of double standards that the me not being able to part only applies to me and no one else. Every time I’ve tried speaking my mind, I get shut down, told I come off as xyz, I could’ve said or phrased xyz better, I’m too this or that. I’ve tried being kind, and at this point, I don’t give a shit anymore. I’ve tried for 5 and a half years, and I’m done listening, sure I’ll do the chores my mom asks, but I will no longer apologize because they got offended that I feel a certain way, and am telling them to leave me alone as I’m about to blow up. I’m done with their bullshit, and I don’t care if they all have their issues, so do I, but I don’t use it as an excuse to why I can do something and they specifically can’t. (Sorry about the rant and nice video)
Also I kept this a lil short bc if I said everything, there’d be pages of text
I’m sorry that they don’t support you, “my problem is people tried to help me too late” I definitely relate to that. It seems like you’re treated as the scapegoat in the household. It’s not your fault, dealing with being shut down everyday it’s exhausting. Sometimes it be your own family. It sounds like they’re putting you down because they would rather not deal with their own issues. You’re very right about that, and you have the right to be angry because having issues is no excuse to take it out on someone else. Never feel sorry for your emotions & expressing them. I sincerely hope you stay strong. You won’t stay in that house forever. It gets better.
I relate to some of these comments, pushing my emotions aside to comfort others, faking positivity, etc.
So my solution was always bottling up stuff and go on with my day, no matter how bad it hurts.
Underrated ❤ thank you for addressing these serious topics.
all these tips and signs are really helpful. I havent been going through anything too hard but now i get why a lot of my friends worry about me as i match a lot of these traits.
Wow, I really don't know if I have a mental issue, but this will help me a lot, thanks!
finally that one roblox channel that talks about psychologies, keep it up, u earned a sub
Dude, seeing this video just shaped me in so many ways.
I'm at my lowest when it comes to my mentality right now, with stress, thoughts, and just feeling kinda down.
Looking back at this, it didn't just show much about my friends, but about me too, even then I don't like going into depth with that because it gives me the feeling that my mind just makes me feel this way for clout or pity, and that just further adds onto things.
This really just made me see things in a bigger picture with what's exactly up with me, and I thank you for that deeply.
There's no other's words to say but thank you very much Layla Productions.
I also watch another video of yours regarding your hard worked content compare to other less-effort ones, and yeah.
It's unfortunately part of RUclips, nothing to do but carry on and strive to do better, but look at the bright side, your acknowledgement and awareness to mental health didn't just pay off for you, but to your audience as well.
Had to get this off my shoulders, continue to make content and inspire Layla, I hope you chase after your goals, ambitions and your reasons to make content like this.
mfw i go "yeah im not mentally broken" and then i watch this video to realize i have most if not all of these symptoms of mental struggle:
edit: ty guys so much for all the positive words :)) i didn't expect my comment to blow up this much!!! this was sort of made as a joke but i like seeing all the hope and optimism for my situation, no matter what it is. seriously tysm guys :D
well i gess we have somthing in commen
Keep going man, you got this
@@Iamacertifiedsandvich i have been pushing thru for over 2 years
@@Iamacertifiedsandvich its not a problem for me lol, but thank you for the kind words anyway :)

I've never seen a channel like this before. These channels are a hope in these tough times :D
Thank you for making this i can finally let my friends know how i truly feel
i heavily relate to the last one. i often struggle with self-confidence issues, because of myself having experienced bullying at school because of my mental disorders for many years. (adhd and tourettes) once it went to the point of me trying to (ykyk), and luckily i had a friend that was right there at that exact moment, but i havent talked to them in a while due to me not seeing them much in school. i also have been feeling extremely lonely recently, due to myself being ghosted by plenty of my real life friends, them not wanting to talk to me. it makes it feel like its me thats the problem, and i just hate that the friends i care so much about, that are there for me just dont even bother to talk to me or message me. it really messed with my self-confidence, and made me hate myself for who i am.
another reason on why i hate myself, is because i can't even be myself when im at school, because if i am, ill just get bullied for it. i hate that i have to be under a mask all the time, and not even be myself. i just wish people could treat people that are different with respect instead of bullying them or making fun of them for something thats out of their control. it makes me feel like theres no hope in humanity.
I also love helping others, which is what boosts my will to live, and i often help others more than myself, but recently its been hard due to me not being able to talk to my friends, them being busy, not talking to me, etc. i just wish i had someone that could be there for me no matter what, and that i could have a person to vent to, because if i vent to my parents, they often misunderstand and make it even worse. i have to keep my feelings hidden, because i dont want the situation to get worse, or get called an "attention seeker".
(sorry about my little vent. also if its hard to understand what im commenting about, english isnt my first language.)
thank you for this video, im trying my best to learn from you and other youtubers to help out my friends, i really want to help my friends when they specifically ask me for help.... but i don't know if i can do it :(
My family members desperately need this in their recommended considering how ignorant they are
One thing I'd like to add on the first one. Sometimes a sudden positive attitude is a red flag too
my friends from where i first lived said i was always a shy and reserved kid, but when i reached 11 or so i became very positive and outgoing, but this was just the mask i put on. i hate myself for what i do but i fear the consequences of not doing it
I wish this appears on my bestfriend's recommendation.
a good friend of mine unblocked me recently and even tho hes the first of many to come back it gave me hope (funny how it happened literally a day after i tried taking my life)
I'm glad things are starting to feel a little more hopeful for you now, and I'm so sorry that you felt you needed to resort to taking your own life at some point. I encourage you to search for any resources or to contact any close friends regarding this. Much love 💜💜
This is actually really helpful ive kinda struggled to understand how to help those who are struggling cuz ive alawyas been scared that i'll say something wrong and it'll bring them down even more so thanks
I wish i could have a friend seeing this video..
hey bro wanna be friends
I hate how cruel the universe is i got recommended this right after my best friend just killed themselves 6 hours ago.
I fucking hate RUclips atm.
That situation awful and I hope you can get through this hard situation. I’m sorry you lost your friend, it sounds like you really cared for this friend and I hope you can get past this tough time.
@@Katavic.01 damn, sorry for your loss
I don't know who you are, but I hope you feel better now.
I'm so sorry, random person on the internet. please, stay safe, and I hope you get better.
Oh no! I am so sorry! That must be salt in your wounds. I am truly sorry for your loss D:
You said to write your own story in the comments, so here I go.
About a month or two ago, my online gf broke up with me from something that could've been solved pretty easily. She's a bit moody, so it wasn't anything too unusual other than the fact that she herself broke up with me, for context she would tell me things like 'i would never break up with you, you'd have to do it' and stuff like that. So, me being me, I panicked and did almost everything I could to try to talk to her.
Looking back, that was my mistake. I kept trying to talk to her over and over, in constant worry. I asked my friends since we shared the same friend group, and they said that she basically just pretended I didn't exist. Just hearing that really bothered me a lot, so I got even MORE anxious and kept trying to talk to her MORE.
She never really gave me a direct answer on why, but she eventually blocked me, everywhere.
Anything that had me involved she removed. Pictures, artwork (she makes beautiful art, some I still have saved and I don't have the guts to delete yet), and more, gone.
What makes it worse is I never got any closure, so I just feel like a bottle in the ocean, lost at sea.
I didn't even do anything wrong. I treated her right, gave her gifts, always was there for her, comforted her when she got assaulted (the best i could while online), did basically everything for her, and now after promising things like marriage and looking forward to see each other, now it's all gone.
While she's blocked me everywhere, sometimes her bios in things are confusing, almost as if she misses me, which just makes me even more confused and hurt.
Still doesn't want to talk to me though, says she's scared of talking it out. Also hurts.
Now I live almost every day where I think of her at least 10 times. She helped me through high school and I even got a job just specifically for her in mind so I could afford plane tickets one day for us to meet.
And it could've been better, I could've given her space and I could've done things differently, but nope, this is how it went down.
But that's just life, huh? Well at least I hope me in another universe is happy with her.
Oh, also since we are from the same friend group, I left it for her sake, and now nobody talks to me. They say they're here for me but nobody really checks in on me.
And if I ask if they want to play they say they're busy playing with 'them' (meaning her and some other people) though honestly i only have one friend who actually cares for me but thats it haha.
Anyway that's my sob story 🤣
Definitely gonna try being the therapist friend when school starts again😅
I noticed these signs from my friends a few yrs ago, I didn't understand at first, Now I know.
W video tho!!
I never discuss about mental health. Instead I sometimes go completely quiet, probably stay in my room alone. Sometimes doing nothing
Number 5 is literally me. And I'm very glad that I'm not the only one going through it and that it's acknowledged by others. I hope everyone suffering from mental health will get better soon, and best of luck.
I'm mentally struggling. The biggest change was a change in passion. Not a loss of passion, but a change.
the change in attitude hits hard for me. like one year im cheerful af then a month later im just quiet and questioning life
As someone who lost there father when I was only 8 years old the first one really explains a lot
As since I’ve been pretty depressed at a bad age to be depressed
Really hoping my best friend sees this
My friend ghosted me and blocked me ago, a couple months before he did that, he told me he had pancreatic cancer. I hope he’s doing alright now…
he's dead
crazyyyy
@@mkiopllimikjl-x5b dawg what is wrong with you
One of my Discord friends (who is also in my Roblox friends list) has recently changed his status to Do Not Disturb, with the bio ‘I’m not fine’
He acts just like he used to: hasn’t stopped building, still acts friendly.
And he did say he was fine, but I just don’t know.. you don’t just say ‘I’m not fine’ as a joke.
Update: He talked with one of his friends, he’s doing better now :)
I'm glad he's doing better now!
I used to exhibit some of these often and felt sad, but now i’m getting better since i recovered from my UTI
someone help me bro like why is “dun dun dun dun dun dun dun, yo phon linging” stuck in my head while I’m watching this 😭💀
YO FONE LINGIN 🔥🔥🗣🔥🗣🗣🔥🔥🗣🔥🔥🗣🗣🔥🗣🔥
Very nice vid, its actually very true
I wish I had other people that actually listened to stuff like this for like 2 years. Luckily I have managed to get a friend to really, really help me and I'm very happy about that. Just saying it uh.. would've been nice a little earlier lmao
it could be more like they don’t really answer your texts or something to but they might just have stuff going on with their life so idk if they going share what’s wrong but as a friend you need help them know you will help. You’re underrated you need more views your underrated your content is fking good
Nice video! I've been wanting to learn on how I can be more supportive for people and close ones, so this was pretty informative. Thank you :)
the 5th one is me, i don't hide it, i always make fun of my destroyed sanity from being bullied in high school, i learned to live with it and i am working on fixing it fully rn. even tho im over a month late, great vid.
thank you so much for this vid man.
i used to have this friend in my neighborhood who was very cheerful and overall, very nice to hang out with. however, things started to go downhill for a variety of reasons, but I tried to be there for them. they have moved away during their stressful time, which did add to their stress, but their doing much better, and we talk ever so often.
I actually have struggled with my mental health in the past due to the first time intense school stress of just so much change of joining a new school and getting intensely bullied and more recently ive been having to deal with loss in this past year ive had to say goodbye to my dog, a family member and my cat luckily ive had people who ive had to help me but its still rough you know
As a person who has dealt with tough family related problems, 3:44 is quite relatable. Back then I ate a lot of greens, but now I mostly meat and less healthy food. 1:38 Had a childhood friend, he used to be more kind, but recently he's been mean, keeps bullying me, and curses at me very often.
10/10 video, educational and pretty relatable.
So I have a friend. She was mistreated and abused by her father and uncle after they drank alcohol at a family party. Her arm was badly injured and it was swelling a lot. Luckily for her she has a friend eho always checks on her. That being me. She said that she was feeling a little bit depressed and explained everything. From there, I helped with every single thing that she was going through. Shes in good spirit now, she's no longer depressed and she's no longer injured.
Always check on your friends. Showing that your care about them allows them to open up about whatever they have been going through. Please give your friends the care and support they deserve.
And if you are the one who has recently gone through something. It's always an option to talk to a trusted friend about it. You don't have to go through things alone. But please please please please please
Don't hide your problems
Hi :D
I dont think i have any of those,But my friend Heroninoz,Kept saying i used to be lighthearted,friendly and were very supportive.. Now im a bit "cold," get pissed at small things where he just tease me lightly,What used to be replying with Jokes,Long words to me just saying "Okay." "Cool." And we had to go through with almost breaking our friendship apart.
Though Honestly,I dont think nothing much diffrent happened to me. I cried too much from little things,Get angry from small things either way. I really dont know why i kept crying at smallest things honestly,I dont get forced by something i know of it,but i just keep crying. He also have problems,But i dont really think i can. My parents,who ive been so uncomfortable with (They're nice. But they used to hit me as punishment. But they dont now,I promise they're good people :D) And friends that i keep drifting off to.
Thank you for reading this lol. Rn im somehow crying.
But i think im still supportive. Im trying to. I mean,I have chatted to people who had liked my stuff in other platforms,and thanked them. Im sorry if. I added to much.
Man, reading more of these stories are gonna make me cry
I’m possibly autistic and also possibly have ADHD.
I stumbled upon this video through my foreign friends messaging me about this video. After watching this I just cant stop thinking about my current life situations. Recently at school i’ve been feeling more overwhelmed, not just by homework and tests but also my classmates. I’ve done a few bad things in the past (keep this in mind) but my class just can’t seem to get over these things even though they’re very small. I’m not talking about my teachers - just my classmates. They keep talking about these things as if I’ve robbed a bank. After i’ve done a bad thing, even the smallest one, it just spreads to the whole school like covid 19 and everyone’s just like “oh, your phone got confiscated cuz you used it in class right?” And the incident they talk about is from a few years ago. When this started i was just calmly responding “yeah, i know.” but as this kept getting more frequent i got more impatient over it. Even some of my schoolmates of the same level as me use this to shame me and use it in examples why no one likes me. Yes, it’s true, next to no one likes me, but they talk about things that happened a few or maybe many years ago, and it just seems like they can’t get over it. This led to me being inadvertently notorious in school for all the wrong reasons, and i just feel too overwhelmed by this and i cant solve it whatsoever because i cant control others.
Another thing id like to go over is me being accused way too much in school. Like i mentioned earlier, i was notorious in school for all the wrong reasons. This bad reputation of me led to another situation occurring - people wrongly accusing me. Usually when they see something drawn on a wall in school they’d accuse me of doing it even though i’ve never done such a thing before, and they’d say “nope, you did it” This is also the case with some of my teachers. A few months before some of my exams started, my parents prohibited me from playing any video games. However even with this, for some class tests when I didn’t get a good score my teacher would always say “stop playing your B.S. games and study!”, making me feel extremely aggravated. Yes, i also have a bad reputation of playing too much games and worsening me academically but this only happened many years ago - possibly in lower primary. I’m currently a secondary school student (i’m singaporean) and these two situations just overwhelm me too much and make my life very miserable to me. Thanks for letting me have a space to pour out all my emotions, i barely have anyone to talk to.
Again, another thing I’d like to add on is about my friends expectations of me. One of them and I have recently began planning on making a Roblox game but my friend is trying to take me way too overboard just for these. For instance, for game funds we would need robux right? My friend told me to go and WORK IRL for money just for roblox giftcards. I don’t even have a job, i’m still a student. This is the only few friends i have, i’ve been with him for a long time, but he’s been worsening in terms of his sense of friendship. If i’m not friends with him i wouldn’t feel alright. Even with him i would also not feel alright. I’ve fallen way too deep into this hole and can never come up. At first when i befriended him he was alright, always thinking for me and about me, but over the years he’s pretty much worsened. I really would like someone who can help me about these problems I have in life right now.
@@ProTheRobloxer nice
I can help
@@ProTheRobloxer il talk to you
dang.... i swear those people can't just mind their own businesses
I remember when I was in school on Tuesday morning before school. I heard someone say that I was "too selfish' and it just stuck with me... and years later I asked them if I was selfish just to get it off my chest since I have been feeling down ever since and couldn't move on from the snarky comment. Luckily they said I wasn't, which really, and I mean really helped a lot which got me to do more of the things I love.
thank you for this video man. before i wouldnt know if my friends are going through stuff at all, and now i know if they are or not from this video so thank you.
the explanations given here are really detailed, I’ve used a few of your tips for some friends, and some had worked! Thank you so much.
Thank you youtube for recommending me this video after i had a mental breakdown.
And this video for existing.
Thanks, now I can hide mine better
yh my friend has been going through 3 of these hope shes lowk alr
great video, I was really struggling last year with this stuff and I wish i watched this
Thanks to this video i can hide better
I hope all who are mentally struggling get the help they need
i went through alot of things in my life and now i feel completely empty and lack of empathy, its been to a point i dont even care about my struggling, its been like this all my life and i dont have any friends nor family, at this point i dont even know what to do.
I’m seeing this in both me and my best friend of my whole life. There’s been moments where we didn’t talk much, but not as bad as cut communication. The worst was some months of nothing. In that time he had (key word had) a girlfriend. So I was completely fine with it, he’s a year and 11 days older than me, and a lot better off than me too. It’s been rough for me for about 3 to 4 years now, will be the 4 year mark in december. And many of these describe me right now. I used to be very VERY talkative, but it would take a good topic to get me going, but once I do I just dont stop. I used to be one of the best in my grade for math. I used to be very caring. Now I’m just this hollow husk waiting for some light in my days. I’m not as caring as I used to be and wish to be, even though I’m an empath. I am much more silent and closed off. I’m slowly losing my desire for my dreams (cars, in general project cars and racing, and then music, if I feel like it maybe making some games). Day by day I just lose amazing Ideas, and they’ll never come back. I once had an amazing story of a driver who was used by his tuners to win them money, and was then attemptedly murdered, suffering life altering injuries. That’s as much as I remember. I used to take care of myself, now I just wake up, do general tasks, watch something, sleep. I’m just waiting till I can finally do the hobbies I want. Couple years ago, not the 4 years ago mark. I broke my computer. Since then I’ve been far calmer, but far sadder and more bored. I’m stuck with an xbox and cant afford a computer. I want s computer so I can continue my passions more. But we struggle even for the bills. Life is a gun in the back. You get a good start, then it fires, and then you wait years for the recovery.
Im at the point where i barely bother hiding my problems. Alotta people know im struggling but no one really does much about it including my family and myself.
I always wanted to break the ice and talk alot more but after certain events in my life and stuff that happened recently, I started turning away and bottle up even more. Once I was relatively happy and outspoken guy, turned into a quiet self destructive and mentally unwell comedian. I always thought that if i just push away or ignore my problems and help others i'll feel fine but it never felt that way. I'm too afraid to talk too cluttered and too useless to find a solution to everything I've been facing. I feel overwhelmed and when I do have friends to talk to I just let go and start to feel like i'm wasting their time. I'm too attached and still face with trust problems. I don't even know if the people I call friends call me friends, i just don't know anymore.
I always want to cry, just let things out seek help and such but I can't imagine how taxing it can be to the people I seek it from, I never felt this useless or felt unimportant.
This isn't a joke or making it dramatic, I was planning to kill myself last year to just end it all because who would want someone like me as their friend?
Thankfully few goods things came as a clutch and I've been out of that mindset since, things dont get better that I have adhd *diagnosed by a doctor, I was 7*
I really do wonder if all of this is my doing where I got myself here, I did this to myself and I dragged my ass down to this cesspool.
I never once blamed or shamed people, I'm a kind soul at heart but i feel used because of it.
Since you try to push away or ignore your problems by distracting yourself----which isn't working out, perhaps you should face the problem by telling someone. You could talk to someone you really really trust (you said you have trust issues), like the person who you trust the most out of everyone you know. If you feel or think that something is wrong, you should tell a friend and just not push it away. You aren't wasting their time by telling them your concerns---whether its about a minor topic or a more serious topic!!
Please don't kill yourself! Life may seem gloomy and it may suck, but just keep going! There are people out there who want you to live! I may be a 13 yr old stranger on the internet, but I'd like you to be happy. Have a great day/night.
