I lost my dad to suicide 7 years ago, and I never processed it. Not until today at 1 am, I realized that I didnt accept what happened, nor did i ever come to peace with it, and forgive him. Thank you for this video.

Hi Paul. I am all the way from sunny Johannesburg South Africa. I have been following you for sometime now and watch how you transitioned from “men’s appearance” to “men’s character”. I thank you for the honesty, sincerity and integrity in your content. I don’t know what it is like to loose someone to depression however I do know what it is like to loose someone to divorce. I am grateful that I have not suffered with depression because of this however I have found myself constantly searching for a substitute, however never really dealing with the hurt of divorce. You sir have inspired me to talk and work through my hurt, emotions, regret and all the things that come from this emotional trauma. I have found that with prayer and time it does get better and somedays it really hurts while on others I am as light as a feather. I can only encourage you that you are in my prayers and that you must continue on the mission you have been on to talk about depression and learning to identify and deal with it. Thank you for being you. God bless.

I honestly believe I didn't stumbled upon your channel in vain. Since watching your first video, I have had you in my thoughts and prayers as I have lost my dad a year ago to suicide aswell and I'm really struggling to come to terms with it. My heart feels so heavy and once in a while I feel this anxiety come over me and the thought of not wanting to let go of him really takes over my entire existence. To know it gets easier is reassuring, but I would love to speak to you a bit more about it, as I believe you can really help me. Thank you for sharing your story! Silvia Gomes

Everything you have said is how i feel too .. felt extremely drawn to your comment. My dad commited suicide in February 2019 hung himself at the same woods i walk my dog. Its been so hard and i almost feel like im a burden to people being down about it and its as if im a problem.. maybe its my anxiety making me over think? But a work college said you need to start getting over it!!!!, that was enough for me to sink into the big hole im in now .. one love to you i no you dont no me but women to women...take care xxxx

I have to applaud you. I hope this video helps not only people who have lost a parent to suicide, but also parents who are considering suicide. I’ve been there. I was so distressed at not seeing my kids because their mum was lying to them that I wasn’t allowed to and didn’t want to, that I came very close. You hit the nail on the head when you say that time is a great healer. Thanks for sharing.

My dad committed suicide this year on the 12th of January. Happy New year eh? I'm utterly heartbroken, my family has been ripped apart. Like your dad, he was so well loved by everyone he met, he was even in the local paper (they didn't know how it happened) I can't imagine this getting easier, I loved him so much. I will never stop loving him. :'(

My dad died almost 5 years ago. Lot of circumstances involved in his death, he was with a manipulative woman, she tried shooting him in a drunken rage 6 months before. There was an investigation, for 2 years I waited to hear that she had killed him, instead it was ruled suicide. I still struggle with believing my dad took his own life. My life has been a rollercoaster, the past year has been the easiest, but there are days, like today when everything hits again and I feel the pain all over. I relive the day he died and day I was told suicide. I get so angry with him, myself and my family. We we're estranged from him when he left our family. 3yrs later he was gone. I long for the day to be at peace with this and to forgive him.

I absolutely loved this video. I can relate big time. My dad took his own life in 2017. It has been difficult living without him. He owned a transmission shop. I am automotive apart in that aspect so I would like to go to college eventually. I worked for Les Schwab before. 2 of their locations actually. But yes, I agree that time is the healer and it will get better. I have his ashes in a necklace I wear on my neck every day. Thank you for this video. It was touching. 🙂
