This video needs to be shown to the world, shared even to friends and others who will benefit from it. As someone who has tried to take their own life, and seeing the examples displayed in the video, it makes meore aware of the signs. We lost people to suicide, Robin Williams, Caroline Flack who are celebrities. It just comes to show suicide and depression is always a thing and needs to be made more of.

Don’t let your mind play tricks on you. It can tell you that it’s pointless and worthless. But I discovered this (Healing myself who’s feeling broken typing this) You’re loved and important coz you bring stuff to this world that no one else can So hold on If all you did was breathe today I’m proud of you Your past self and future self is happy you’re still here I’m happy too.

[@Sk83rNinja]

I had many suicidal tendencies as a kid(7-11 I think) and no one would listen to me when I would mention it. Just would pass it off saying i am okay and it will be fine. By the time I was 9 I had many mental breakdowns and would secretly get ready to kill myself(and I still don’t know why I never did). And it eventually just turned into things like this like I hope that car runs me over or just praying to die in your sleep. I am fine now but if you ever hear anyone say things about it take it seriously it caused me much more pain than I already had that I wasn’t important enough for anyone to listen to me.

It's most probably because we can't seem to trust anyone with depression and I haven't even said anything because if I did nobody would believe me or just think I am joking even though it's not a joke and is a serious thing we all need to look out for.

[@andymanaus1077]

That is because they ARE locked away and shunned. No matter how much people talk about this topic, the reality is that society hates suicidal people and will do its best to shove them to one side, maybe give them some short-term advice and then throw them into the same circumstances they were in beforehand. "You just need to talk about it" is a huge lie that covers a fundamental problem, that many people are alone, lonely and shunned, and many of them have practical problems that could be dealt with with a little bit of practical help, but no one wants to do that.

[@AlejandroHenriquez-sp2fz]

You know people really don't understand how it feels like to live with depression. It's basically when *EVERYTHING* becomes a burden on you; waking up, brushing your teeth, washing your hair, clothing, attending classes etc. *EVERYTHING* seems to require a gigantic amount of effort and you feel you can't do it despite your best efforts. It's when living becomes a burden rather than a will. I go to bed the night hoping that I won't wake up in the morning ever again. I just want to sleep forever ♾️! Sleeping is not anymore a way to recharge your batteries but a way to disconnect from reality! Sleeping is my only way to forget my problems, considering that I am not using drugs nor alcohol. Instead of being happy and energetic when I wake up, I am sad because I have to go back to my current reality 😭. Depression is when you wanna cry but you forbid yourself to do it simply because you don't want the people who surround you to ask how you are. If they ask you, you don't wanna answer or simply lie because a lie seems easier than showing your true emotions. Depression is when you feel life is a burden and when you feel YOU ARE THE BURDEN YOURSELF!!! Depression is when you are incapable of visualizing a nice future; it's when you've lost all hope of fixing your shit. It's when you only see a future full of pain no matter what you decide to do or say. Depression is when you feel empty, as if some organs had been removed and somehow you feel heavier. Depression is consuming. I feel I'm heading back to rock bottom again. The thought of me dying is now comforting rather than scary. I don't wanna commit suicide because I don't want my loved ones to be in pain. It includes my besties, my brother etc. I really feel that life is too heavy mate 😔

This is so helpful. About a year ago I had a friend who told me he had diagnosed depression, and I was always scared things were getting worse, but he made me promise not to tell anyone. Months later he told me he had attempted to kill himself and asked me why I hadn’t told anyone/suspected anything. Moral of the story is if you’re even a bit concerned, tell someone who can help your friend, regardless of what they’re saying

[@TheLethargicWeirdo985]

The worry is that this might make things worse since the (maybe only) person they trusted broke their trust, and after that they might not open up ever again and distance themself even more. This can be made worse if the family or people around them are toxic and they find out from that. It ban be a lose-lose situation sadly

[@tienthyule]

school affected my life because of the bullies taking me down, especially people who scream in my ear when i have sensitive ears. those kinds of problems are too far and it lead me to self-harm one time. 3 is what i have most of the time and i confess it to my friends because i just don't think i belong anywhere else i'm glad you made this video since some of the signs in this video were actually what i had and encountered. i reached out to trusted adults and i called a hotline to help myself.

[@astraamarante6233]

@@TheLethargicWeirdo985 Suicide is more cowardly than you think, there's no "gathering courage" to self-delete so you don't have to suffer through the rest of world. You just wait until you get scared and hopeless enough to decide to stop fighting. As a lot of people look at it: the easy way out. Looking at suicidal people as people that don't want to be helped is harmful. And you're talking about it on the internet, so you do, in some capacity, want to be helped in some way. Even people that don't talk to anyone want to be helped, they just don't think they deserve it (which is why they suffer silently.) People with heavy depression have been hurt a lot, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and to have the mind broken so much that it attempts to override the survival instinct is so horrifying that whether you realize it or not, the body will look for ways to reach out, which is why depressed people, no matter how they try to act, always have some part of them that looks off or in need.

All we need at the end of the day is self-love, because why live life when you of all people are your biggest hater. It hurts, really hurts that my sister commited suicide. I have regrets, flashbacks, crying session, existentialism, etc. There is someone who loves you no matter what. Don't let your brain lie to you. If you really think everyone hates you, then start to love yourself. You are a human being, a feeling human being. Don't let society trick into thinking that your worthless. No dollar, article of clothing, jewelry, phone addiction, any non-human thing deserves to destroy your well-being.

[@luludu4770]

I've been sliding along the borders between suicidal depression and non-suicidal depression for years. I may never tried it. But I do recognise the patterns. It feeds often in my fear of losing control of myself. I do know while good times exist, there are times where I am barely hanging on a thread while life seems to only make everything worse. It's been getting better lately, but I have a long journey ahead of me until I am even closed to being healed. If I can ever be free from depression. I have scars. Mental ones and physical ones that mirror those of my soul. I've just been continuing to discover all the ways I was hurt and was broken and also where I in consequence of all the pain had hurt myself. It's nothing easy to face. It's hard. For those out there, who still are hanging in there, giving life a chance for some unfathomable reason... Just try to survive another day. Sometimes it isn't worth it. Sometimes it just might.

[@timinator900]

I got to be honest with you... Being a student in college, living with roommates who don't acknowledge your presence and living hundreds of miles away from parents has negatively taken a toll on my mental health. A lot of the times, I try to keep myself in good spirits, but sometimes loneliness creeps in, and seeing people with their smiling faces only makes me even more upset. I went to check up at the university clinic and they told me, I may have depression, which honestly isn't surprising. I've had moments where I wanted to self harm myself, and I did at one point during my college years. Sometimes it wouldn't hurt to ask how people are feeling from time to time, because you never know what they might be facing. One day you could see them.... and the next, they're gone from your life. I try my best not to push my way to suicide but each day, it gets easier and easier knowing just how many ways there are to commit this action. If anyone sees this message, please keep God in your hearts. My parents told me to keep faith in Jesus Christ as my number 1 best guard for anything bad in my life. But still, it doesn't hurt to get a hug from somebody, anybody, I could really use one....🥺😔

I appreciate this video. I am 34 and dealt with depression for 19 years before I got help. When I was younger it is not like it is today. It is not cool or a fad to have a mental illness like on Tiktok and most people didn't think it was real. It got really bad to where I was a chronic alcoholic. Eventually, I couldn't take it anymore and decided to end it. I never told anybody but I started a will to give all my things away. The night in question I decided to call everyone in my phone at 0300 just to see if anyone would answer. My cousin did and he put me on a three way call to a suicide hotline that saved my life. I wish I could speak to that man who saved me and thank him. I am glad I didn't do it. I was diagnosed with depression last year and I quit drinking and smoking pot. If you are dealing with depression just know you are not alone and there are people that can help. If you think depression or mental illness is cool, stop it, because it is not. It is terrible and horrifying. Just make sure you keep your friends and family close. Thanks.

Don’t feel shame to admit you need help. The amount of help I got to get me out of the heavy and unbearable emotional suffering I went through saved me. Getting help when you feel this hopeless or like the world is better without you or you just want to end it is so hard, so let someone save you or please call someone. This is your sign to keep going. I promise you it does get better. It’s a cliche saying, but I got help finally at age 28 which was last year. But it’s not easy and it’s still been so rocky.

This comment is gushy, I know, but I still feel as though I should write it anyways. I'm very depressed at the moment and lately I have been having a lot of suicidal thoughts and tendencies. I've tried to take my own life in the past and as of now I'm in a very bad mental state. One thing that always helps me is talking to someone I trust. For me, I usually go to my boyfriend, who also, unfortunately, recently attempted suicide. Clearly as of late neither of us have been in a great mental state but talking with each other about both the bad and good days is always a relief. Bottling up emotions is one of the worst things you can possibly do when you're in this kind of bad state, and it will just make those thoughts build up... leading to some rather irrational choices. Hurting yourself never helps, and it only makes the suffering for you and your loved ones even worse. It's NEVER worth it to cut yourself, even if it does relieve stress temporarily. In the long run it will only cause more harm. This also goes for all other forms of self-harm, although I chose cutting since that is the one I'm most.. familiar with. If you ever have bad urges, or get suicidal tendencies, talk to someone you trust and call 988 (The suicide prevention helpline). Always remember: It gets better.

I've had these feelings for a very long time. After my last break-up, I "celebrated" for 10 years by hoping I would die of alcohol poisoning. Needless to say, it didn't work (3 years sober in June), but i still get feelings of worthlessness due to me being a pretty stupid person. I constantly compare myself to everyone I know because I know they're all doing for better than me (with maybe one or two exceptions), and I keep getting the feeling that I won't ever get into a place in my life where I will finally be comfortable and happy again. I've thought of death many times over the last 20+ years (there were a few years in between where I didn't think of it due to the toxic relationship I was stuck in), but once I began to drink, I felt both a sense of relief after getting out of my situation, but also a sense of hopelessness since my psychotic ex used to say I'll never get another girlfriend again, or find a girl like her (which in all honesty, I was perfectly fine with since I didn't want another like her). As for giving away prizes possessions, I've never really thought of that very much. Making jokes about me dying, yeah, I've made quite a few of those. Not in the last 10 years or so now, so I've cut that out, at least. I guess as far as ending my life goes, I don't have the balls to do it. I haven't engaged in risky activities, either. I guess I'm now just in the middle where I think of it, but I'm not willing to act on it, but instead, just push forward with life and maybe things will turn themselves around.

You aren't alone. There are people that care about you. You don't your mom if she doesn't care about you, it'll be okay. I know life is scary, but you have a lot of life left in front of you that you get to decide what you do with it! It'll get better, okay? It may not seem like it, but all tunnels have an end, you can't have darkness without light.

[@DarkChamberEnigma]

i had a long time friend who never showed any signs. He was a funny guy, loved to joke around to make us laugh, he was an exceptional student during high school days. He loved to hang out with us and chill with us. He was the kindest and humble guy, kinda sweet too. he looked always happy with his kids and wife because that's the last time he said to me, that he was happy building his own family. But still took his own life which we didn't understand.

[@Knuxougeshipper]

I remember being on the phone with one of my suicidal best friends all night talking to her and helping her out saying things like “everything will be okay” or “we’ll get through this together one way or another”. Needless to say she believed me and I’m so glad to have her by my side because if I wasn’t there, there’s absolutely no chance of her still being next to me right now…

[@BonzieKitty]

This video is just sadly way too relatable as someone who was really thinking of ending it all during the winter break, i never ended up doing it but fhis video reminded me and has crossed my mind again and that last scene of the character saying i dont know how to make this feeling go away just really hit close to home hope everyone who feels this way is able to find that light again ❤

[@astraamarante6233]

First message: You. Are. ENOUGH. Get that in your head. If you have to say it 100 times to day to get it in your head, then so be it! You are worthy, you are enough, you are good. You're doing your best, you're not a failure, you're not weak, you are human. And that in itself is amazing! But also hard. Being alive is hard, especially when there's so many unnecessary rules put on top! Trust me, as a fellow human, you're not doing nearly as bad as you think you are. People like us that have depressive episodes are the most critical of ourselves. Related to that, you aren't alone in your struggle. Even though, obviously, there aren't a HUGE amount of people that can relate to your severity, but once you realize you don't need to follow through with the pressure of being the most perfect unique flawed person there ever was, I think you'll at least be less stressed. Hey, speaking of stress, have you tried to help yourself relax? Life's busy, make sure you're taking care of yourself. Maybe try soaking in the bath and just thinking about your favorite things instead of throwing yourself in the shower. Your pruny fingers aren't gross or weird, it's a cool part of human nature! You're beautiful, no matter what you look like, because you are the only you. And yet you share so much with everyone else. Isn't that cool?? So many similarities, but we're still our own people! For me, Idk if I can say I have suicidal depression because the only symptom I have is invasive thoughts that nothing matters (and I have had urges here and there that I was able to overcome probably easier than others...) but I'm still really scared of dying. My depression is more like feeling like I'm floating in the void with nothing to ground me, except for my favorite hobby and my friends! So my recommendation from personal experience is: at the least, find something you like to do to distract yourself when you're desperate. Really only when you're desperate and can only think about that, maybe by distraction, you'll teach your brain that you can indeed think about other things. Practice self-love (differentiate between actually taking care of your health and just trying to escape your thoughts) find something that gives your life meaning and whenever find yourself struggling with the meaninglessness of life, go back to what you use to define why you're here. What I decided I wanna do while I'm alive is bring awareness to people, what struggles everyone faces. I want to help people and give them what they need to know in order to improve their lives and the lives of those around them. Not quite as noble as like FBI or teaching or any of those, I suppose, but the way I'm planning to go about it is probably more ambitious than most people kinda just trying to get by. Find your reason, basically, and focus on that while keeping yourself healthy. On the other side, definitely try to examine your thoughts and figure out why your thought patterns are the way they are, see about trying to discover why you think life is so bad and see if you can remedy it! Lack of human interaction could be something. Make sure you're drinking enough water and taking good care of your body, get good sleep, remember to take breaks just to rest your eyes. Maybe just lay in bed in the middle of the day and let yourself fall asleep or try to make your brain stay empty a while. Or just close and cover your eyes to see if you can at least partially get rid of that headache! Have I mentioned water? Lol. Have a wonderful and low-stress day!

[@maximmontana9407]

I would also love to see your videos and your thoughs on people that struggle with anti-social problems and people that use violence to "help" themselfs on solving anger and their loneliness. mostly known form of word is "going postal". Problems like shooting rampages like the Columbine are the cause from lack of social interactions, mental illness and many more. But thank you so much for this video.

[@sinsitysinderella790]

I really appreciate thi# video, I feel much relieved now. My 21 (at-home) Son suffers from depress, ADHD and anxiety, which he unfortunately inherited from me. While I have a history of suicide attempts, I can now see that he isn't currently in that group. I will of course keep a close (loving) eye on him. I've finally convinced him to see a psychiatrist, and he is medicated, and he does seem to be doing better overall. However, he's quite introverted and hides his struggles, so it's something that's long scares me

[@sinsitysinderella790]

Scared me. I will never stop looking out for him, but I feel like I have a much better idea as to when to really worry, as opposed to projecting my fears based on my own experiences. Thank you, truly 🙏.

[@Cassoosted_Fuper]

Honestly this kind of thing is scary. I’ve had a hunch that something in my head wasn’t ok, and on some days it seems to get worse. I realized that on the really bad days, I thought to myself that I keep myself around only for other people. I’m not even sure if it’s love for them that I feel at this point, it guilt of how I would feel if I left. I don’t think I’m truly suicidal, but the thoughts have flashed through my head before, and that revelation is terrifying.

[@Real_Moon-Moon]

This video makes great points. I’ve had depression since 2016, and majorly since 2019. As someone who checks all these signs, and has tried treatment to no avail, it seems hopeless. But, there’s hope I think. Find something to cling onto. For me, telling me that people would miss me doesn’t work because why should I care what happens once I’m gone? So, I cling onto other things. Foods to eat, stuff to do, and hobbies to try. Maybe even that next sunrise or snowfall. It doesn’t always help, but you have to try something. We won’t live forever, so why not make the most of the short time we have?

See, it's friends like that that make me wish I had someone to talk to. Best of love to you. I'm in college, but I must say last academic year.... I was in a very similar path like yours. I had been my worst year in college. Apart from the rigorous classes I took, I dealt with my roommates shennagans the entire year. Him being a girlfriend, him having you know what, and him having the most obnoxious snoring known to man. I wish I was kidding. Anyway, it took a toll on my mental health. It got so bad I attempted to self injure myself and purposely try to get close to cars as I crossed the street, to get hit and die. There's also a very high railing not far from the dorm I stayed in that I glaced upon ending my life. I was inching off by touching the gate, which wasn't that high. The University clinic wasn't much help as they told me if I attempted to commit suicide again... I would be sent by UPD to come take me to a hospital. At that point, I was going crazy... internally. Externally people would find me weird to talk to as I was also mumbling and had eye bags around my eyes, as a sign of not good sleep for days. 🥺😔

[@sailorbey]

something similar happened to me last year. i had burned ALL of my diaries (from 2003 to 2022) that day and got the rope in my hands, contemplating. i even wrote an "if i die" note, with contacts and stuff. i was so determined to do it. until my best friend called, asking if we could play a game together. i chose not to tell her what was about to happen, instead i just enjoyed the moment with her. in that moment, i thought maybe i have some reasons to stay alive. i'm happy you have someone like your bff, and i'm proud of you for staying here

[@raingirlcat2245]

I believe you. There are so many Kids who suffer with depression, BPD, Bipolar, Schizophrenia, Imposter Syndrome, OCD, Anxiety disorder, and etc. I started suffering with severe depression, suicidal ideation, and isolation ever since I was really little. Younger than 11. Please, Don’t hold it in. Mental illness/health shouldn’t be a taboo. I think that going to a GOOD therapist or psychologist could be beneficial. However, everyone is different of course. Dealing with your struggles and pain by holding it in is horrible. Let it OUT. I can’t say that it gets better, but maybe it will, maybe it won’t. For me, it hasn’t gotten better after many years, but I’ve heard that psilocybin in small doses, which is a psychedelic, has the potential to really help people with mental illnesses. Maybe one day. Don’t hold it in. Really look into getting a GOOD therapist or psychologist. ❤Life is filled with so much pain, but for me, music and art helps me cope with my demons and mental illness. I wish you the best. Communicating is hard for me, but I talk with therapist, and it slightly helps.

[@batchboy999]

[@nicolasriveros943]

I lost a friend early this year to suicide. She wasn't much close to me, but since we live in a small town, we shared friends in common and she dated a friend of mine some while ago. But we did shared some talks about mental health and medication. I was diagnosted with Depressed Disorder before the pandemic and i'm on medication ever since. We talked about our current therapy, and she was actually very insightful about these themes, even recommended me meditation and group therapy a couple of times She was 29 and left a 7yo daughter, a bunch of friends and her mom to their own. And this might be sound selfish but, having experienced that kind of loss pretty much convinced me that Suicidal thoughts are better to left alone and be just that: thoughts. Because i saw what she left behind after her passing: pain among their loved ones. I never want to feel like i'm a problem to those i love, and i'm certain now that this is not the way to let the problems and pain to go away. I guess what i'm trying to say is: talk to those you know more often, specially if you know there's something about them. It's pretty sad to realizing you're maybe to deep into yourself that you can't see the bigger picture sometimes, or even thinking your problems are the worst thing ever, wanting to end things, not realizing what other might be struggling with. I hope you are at least in peace now Flor.

This video is amazing, and should be shared with others. I have never been diagnosed officially with depression, but I have made a few attempts to kill myself. This was 2 years ago. Now, the motivation to kms is gone, but I always wonder: "What's the point?" Around a year ago I started having these thoughts. Then panic attacks. Then short periods of insomnia/sleep deprivation. And self harming. Luckily, I've sought professional help from my doctor and therapist and I can at least as I haven't made any attempts since then. However, the thought still lingers and my issue with self harming still stays. I want everyone that is struggling to know that you are loved, acknowledged, respected, and cared for. If you thought about ending things, then keep in mind the people who are close to you. How would they react? Because there will be at least one person who cares, and who is affected. So please, take care of yourself for your sake and for others

[@marleyboy7732]

This gives me the creeps. Almost accurate. Almost. Ive been stuck in that state of mind for the past 20yrs. The only thing that keeps me from ever going through with it. Is the fear of sin that will send me somewhere I dont want to go for eternity. ( Im no holy poly) but its a feeling of a possibility. And the other reason is. Is my 2 boys I raised on my own. The only thing I got going for me now is being a dad. And thats the one thing I dont EVER want to fail at before " my time comes". So I give it everything to be the best dad. And try to make sure my boys are happy , strong, independent & pray to never see them struggle. And when its "my time". I hope they can be proud of me to being their father.

YES. I hate people that're just like "Well, just stop thinking that way, just calm down" and my response is "DO YOU REALLY ACTUALLY THINK I WANT TO AND AM CHOOSING TO BE LIKE THIS?!" One of my favorite videos, hate that mental illness has to be likened to physical illness just to get the point across, but that clip (might be a Vine) where that guy is sitting on the stairs wrapped in a blanket and the other guy in the room says "Hey, why can't you just stop being so sad? There's so much happiness in the world!" and the blanket guy's response is "IDK ALEX, WHY DO YOU HAVE ASTHMA?? THERE'S SO MUCH *_AIR_* IN THE WORLD!" As someone with both depression (more mild now, thank goodness, and I've always been good at distracting myself from negative thoughts anyway) and a breathing issue that's gotten worse since covid, I find that clip especially hilarious since I struggle with both!

If I thought about doing to others, the things I've thought about doing to myself, I would be horrified. I've fought what can only be described as strong urges to end it, and it took a lot of willpower. Unfortunately, the thoughts haven't stopped. It doesn't help when days go by without talking to anyone. But, I guess that's better than constantly being in one sided relationships.
