CHRIS STAPLETON "FIRE AWAY" - REACTION VIDEO - SINGER REACTS

[@jonlisakukuk4553]

I have lived with my husband’s PDD for 42 years. I love him & will always be here for him.

[@maryerpenbach9517]

Walking barefoot through cornstalks is the best visual representation of depression I've ever seen.

[@BirdmansPlace]

Yes...same here. It's hauntingly beautiful.

[@culturedthug8850]

The great irony of the story; hes a cop. He spends his day helping people and protecting them. Yet he couldn't be there for her and protect her all the time, although he always tried.

[@barbaramelville6940]

😥

[@matthewmcdonald3513]

This song made feel for her family

[@naomiwarner7117]

This is deep, but needed to be recognized in this country or, world for that matter! Thank you!

[@kingderphead]

Song really hit home for me. I'm deeply affected right now. Thank you brother. I have to go and compose myself.

[@LadyGator1983]

WOW!!!

[@janicecooper3947]

in the early 80's we had a singer, Bob Seger, who sang almost EXACTLY like Chris. He didn't have the song repertoire but the voice's are identical!!!

[@BirdmansPlace]

Oh they are definitely similar. I agree. I was around for Seger. I was born in 1980. :)

[@christywhitehead3171]

If this Chris Stapleton video saves One Life it'll be worth it just my opinion great song

[@adam.4487]

My son is bi-polar. He is 43 now and is a tutor. Lots of struggles over the years. My husband and I have not a day that we don't worry and wonder about him. Ups and downs with him are exhausting, he struggles, we struggle along with him. Being a mother I think I worry more and I don't think I have ever had a good nights sleep when I don't hear from him enough. I just hope and pray, and try never to expect the worst, but the thought is always there in my head.

[@suzannedavila1446]

Bipolar depression goes from extreme highs to extreme lows.

[@mattadams1694]

What I’ve gathered from my own mental depression is I just can’t get out of my own head. It’s like thinks are great, and then all of a sudden a sound, a word, something will hit me and I’m back inside my head. It’s tough. Music helps. Knowing I’m not alone helps. But it’s never gone.

[@BirdmansPlace]

Yeah...I can't even imagine. One little thing can trigger. It's like a domino effect. Sometimes I get anxiety, and that is how mine works. But depression is something else all together. God Bless you, brother. Much love to ya.

[@chevetteman17]

I know how you feel Matt it’s the same for me and I’m an overthinker and just trying to not go down those rabbit holes is so hard at times. Stay strong and I hope things get better for you. Take care.

[@barbaramelville6940]

Love you get ready for a emotional ride with this song

[@Tinkerbellstune]

That’s the pain of loving someone with Bi Polar/mental health issues. Thankyou for displaying the mental health hotline number ❤️

[@BirdmansPlace]

Amen. You got it.

[@staceyshaffer180]

Your a sweetheart! Just putting the helpline number at the top of your screen shows me you got a big heart and are a wise man. Thank you!!

[@BirdmansPlace]

Thank you so much for the kind words, and the support. I really appreciate it. Much love to ya.

[@marcsantiago2850]

Another similar song that doesnt get a lot of love is "hold on" by chord overstreet. Definitely worth a listen.

[@sxott07]

As someone who has gone through this with my wife (alcohol issues; attempted suicide, she got help, but everyday is a struggle) it is something that you have to try and be as supportive as possible. Hope For The Day is a great resource to use; "It's ok to not be ok" is their slogan. Greatly appreciate you Birdman! Keep doing what you are doing.

[@denisesalmon4496]

Josh Bush I’ve had the same issues as your wife. Not alcohol issues but truck issues at one time prescription meds. Because I’m in chronic pain. I suffer from depression. I’ve tried to commit suicide. But I found a wonderful man. And it sounds like your wife did too God bless you

[@barbaramelville6940]

I suffer every day alone depression anxiety no one cares I'm 62 fighting every day 😥 I talk to a therapist 2 times a month I don't feel like she's much help I 🙏 for all suffering don't give up this is a sad song for me.....ty.

[@garyglardon5140]

The story behind how this video came about is almost as amazing as the video.

[@BirdmansPlace]

Will have to look into that. Thank you for the info. :)

[@AceHardy]

[@Organicme1]

TY for the reaction! God bless us all!

[@BirdmansPlace]

You are very welcome. And definitely...God Bless us all.

[@nshkwe4811]

Best reaction I’ve seen on this video

[@BirdmansPlace]

Awww...thank you so much for the kind words. I really appreciate that. Much love to ya.

[@ladylauraanne]

I love Chris's voice. This is a great song. The video makes me cry. I've lost a couple friends to suicide, and my late brother battled bipolar disorder and manic depression for most of his life. Love your shirt. I'm a massive Doc Holiday fan, and Val Kilmer's portrayal of him in Tombstone, one of my all-time favorite movies! Love your t-shirts. I have a big collection too

[@diomarisadame4683]

Beautiful Song / Video and a Great Reaction as always. 👍 Keep up the great work.

[@dellakimbertk444]

As someone who suffers with depression and anxiety, I appreciate you leaving up the hotline for help. There are times where I just get stuck in my head, and my husband knows this and he can sense it and see it written all over my face and my body language; and he does his best to help. Even if its just a sympathetic ear or a shoulder to cry on; it helps make me feel like I'm not alone and struggling by myself like my brain is telling me I am. For everyone else who doesn't know how to help, or thinks that they CAN'T help; ALL you have to do some times is just BE there for them. Those of us who suffer, bottle EVERYTHING inside and FEEL like we can't let it out... Just BE a soundboard, a solid shoulder, let them know you are there for them no matte what. LOVE the reaction @Birdman, love what you do and may God continue to bless you and your family! Much Respect man!

[@BirdmansPlace]

God Bless you. So sorry for what you're going through. I can't imagine. All I can do is say if someone needs help, please get it. I will pray for you. It's the best thing I can do. That, and like you said, be a soundboard. Much love to ya.

[@lauraburdett8932]

This was my sister. We lost her three years ago. Depression is a horrible demon.

[@bigred12332]

I go through this every single day and I hate it people make fun of me because I'm happy go lucky one minute and then the darkness hits me and I change into a total different person it's only the first few weeks of January and I already tried taking my life 50 plus times

[@rebeccaburgraff263]

I deal with this with my 16 yo daughter. Shes a cutter. It's so sad. Shes an amazing girl, smart, popular, soooo funny. Shes in therapy and on medication but when she slips we have to watch her like I hawk. It's tough and a struggle. But we will get through this. Much love Birdman.

[@2angelmommy]

I just want to tell you, as a former cutter, it will get better. Just keep loving your daughter, and working with her to follow through with the help. It is tough and it is scary, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Much love

[@rebeccaburgraff263]

Thank you so much!!!

[@craigabela8879]

love your reactions.... tis song is very powerful

[@BirdmansPlace]

Most definitely. Thank you for the kind words and the support. Much love to ya.

Yes it is birdman I am bipolar 1 it's hard sometimes but with meds and my fam and yours I'm doing great 💞

When you're in the darkness you just can't view the world correctly. God helped me.

[@Mark_MOORE_VFL]

Chris is amazing what a voice. Check out Millionaire (he wrote it for his wife). It's a beautiful love song

[@MaryWhiteWolf]

*L-O-V-E* Chris' voice and Millionaire makes one feel like one.

[@Mark_MOORE_VFL]

@@MaryWhiteWolf Parachute is a great love song. The line in it he says falling is like flying till you hit the ground. I believe he is telling her I'll catch you I'll be your Parachute. I'm in awe of his amazing and creative song writing. If you have seen anyone react to either one let me know.

[@melissafogg-browning7296]

Been watching your videos love your reactions and the way you explain things...

[@BirdmansPlace]

Thank you so much for the kind words. I try to bring my thoughts of the message of music. Glad you see it. :) Much love to ya.

[@matthewmcdonald3513]

I struggle with mental health but I am taking meds to help me with it

[@tomword5619]

Birdman, words can not describe how much I appreciate you for bringing this issue up, suicide, mental health is the great family secret, and HAS. to be talked about. I lost my best friend then my wife both disabled veterans to suicide. It’s been 6 years since my wife did. This Christmas was harder than most we have two beautiful daughters who turned into amazing woman the pain of realizing she missed seeing this, playing with our two grandkids, missed seeing the girls graduating college, getting married man oh man. The guilt of not seeing any signs that day will never go. Again thank you

[@BirdmansPlace]

Amen, my brother. Thank you for the kind words. And I couldn't agree more. This issue needs to be brought up everywhere. And I will continue to do my best to bring it to light. Much love to ya.

[@sheenalee5978]

Just came across your video and you are absolutely right. We can be laughing.happy.then it's like someone switched the switch and we are a different person.. I tend to stay to myself don't want to be around anyone when I go to the state of mind

[@BirdmansPlace]

I understand, my friend. Wait..no...let me rephrase that. I don't understand it...I haven't experienced it. But I definitely sympathize with it. I'm so sorry you go through that. God Bless you.

[@emdet2234]

Another great reaction! And awesome shirt

[@MaryWhiteWolf]

Definitely a PASS! I've been down this road- I'm a first responder and just lost a work colleague to this. I was the one to find him. *Puts head in hands and sobs* His family is getting a lot of support and I'm doing my best to stay close to them. It's all I can do.:-(:-(:-(:-(:-(:-( You can't watch over them 24/7 and it's a tough road to ride along on. What you do is keep encouraging the help- take them there if you must,be with them when they make that phone call, but keep encouraging, keep supporting and above all else, keep loving them.

[@dellakimbertk444]

@maryclark Thank you for what you do! I appreciate the First Responders and everybody who's on the front lines of everything; your kind words of an encouraging people with these mental health issues, touched my soul deeply as I'm currently, and have been suffering and battling through depression, for the last 8 years. It's not an easy road to go down, but having people to support me is amazing... And I appreciate all the support and love from them too. You are a blessing and I hope that you are well and safe.

[@janethoffman4197]

😭😭😭

[@nualaseamus]

Thank you for noticing she was barefoot in the field and you don't do that - it's an early sign that something is wrong with this picture. You are the first person I've seen notice this. You caught the bipolar pretty quick too. Thank you also for including the SAMHSA Hotline, that site at the end of the video (changedirection.org) actually takes you to a site to help you know the signs of emotional suffering.

[@BirdmansPlace]

Yeah...I was able to pick those things up. I try to really look deep when I watch videos. Just how I've always done it. Absolutely. Anything I can do to help, I will do. Thank you for the kind words, and the support. Much love to ya.

[@marlarogers9304]

No matter how much you love someone, you can't love them thru mental illness. You MUST get professional help! This song, and the video, are so heartbreaking!!

[@BirdmansPlace]

They really are. Absolutely. So sad. :(

[@bryangomez8034]

I can't believe I just discovered your.channel, I watched some of your reactions and comments with your follower and you seem to be a cool and nice person, I have so many requests for you to react in order to more people coul find out good and helpful songs, greetings from Peru bro! Keep the good work and take care! 😁

[@heidithatswho.2481]

I personally don't think a man exist would could live up to saying fire away. 😔 would be nice to have that comfort without the weight of how much my struggle hurts them.

[@BirdmansPlace]

Yeah...that is definitely a powerful statement. And hard to live up to.

[@brandoncliff5653]

No dont think that way. My beautiful lady has PTSD and bi-polar disorder. I've had my moments of being weak but will take anything from her and fight along side her as long as she knows I'm there. I'd rather her fire and give me everything she has instead of her hurting herself. I pray you find someone to be your rock and keep your head up. God bless you and much love.

[@rondag.3761]

Depression and anxiety are two things I deal with... thankfully I've never tried to commit suicide because of it. Most of the time my medicine helps but occasionally it sneaks through. It's those times, when I realize what's happening, that I tell my husband or adult daughter..."I have no idea why but I'm struggling today" so someone is aware. I loved this video and your reaction. It's so hard for all concerned. Love you and the compassion you show.

[@WizardPandora]

*hands over the tissue* depression is hard, I have bi polar with anxiety In my teens I tried once to take my life after years of foster homes telling me the reason I was there because I was unwanted, all I was good for was the checks that came in. Thanks to my other half whom I met at 19, I've never tried again

[@denisesalmon4496]

WizardPandora I’m so sorry to hear that you’ve gone through the struggles. I’m glad you came out on the other side

[@MaryWhiteWolf]

WizaedPandora, you aren't alone. I have 2 best friends who are bi polar and manic depressive. I was adopted and was told that all I was good for was making my adoptive mother look good. I've been down that road with ya, hon. Your other half is lucky indeed. *Gentle Hug*

[@WizardPandora]

@@MaryWhiteWolf I am sorry they told you that, my other half has been at my side for 21yrs come May 25th. It took him about 5yrs to figure everything out but he stayed to do so instead of running like some do. As I have said to many, "I'd rather listen to your story, than hear about your funeral" If you ever need to talk, feel free to email me and I'll give you my discord info [e-mail]

[@MaryWhiteWolf]

@@WizardPandora Thank you for those kind words. and your discord info. :0) Believe it or not, I have come to peace with those words, it's what made me more determined to go into law enforcement. I was also an Army nurse in '91 (ODS) and '03 (OIF). Some, it takes 'em awhile to sort through things- the truly strong ones stay. :-) Sounds like you've got a keeper. :-)

[@brittaniewaldrop9536]

I didn't tell you this when I told you my story about why this meant so much to me. But as you said I have been through a lot and there have been days where I felt like her. But that is not why the song resonates with me. This video is taken from the perspective of her husband. as you said you can't watch them all the time. The husband and the video was a police officer. My husband is a correctional officer. Still law enforcement and still an essential worker. He has been afraid to leave me alone before. I'm doing better now but as you said it can be as simple as flipping the switch. By seeing this video, I was able to see things from his point of view clearly for the first time in my life. And it really change the way I handle my depression.

Theres a strong demonic influence in mental health its more spiritual than pshysical.
