Why pay for therapy when we have you? You work at helping as hard as we all work at coping. Thank you .

Oh you too? My therapist's name is Citizen Solider. 😂

[@somethingrandom08]

Not that anyone asked but I finally broke up with my partner of 1 year and 1 month who abused me emotionally and made me feel like no one cared for me at all. I felt like I was left alone with myself most nights and I would often contemplate ending it all. The hard part now is staying out of the relationship. I’m not sure how I’m going to get through this or if I will, but I will try my best. It was my first relationship, and I’m only 15. And I felt like no one at all should care abt me. But now that I’ve done this, I see just how many people in my life care abt me. And even tho it’s not directed towards me, it still feels like you guys are here for me too and care abt me. Thank you for releasing this song. I have contemplated unaliving for a long time and still do but it’s my family, my close friends, and music who keep me going. I pre wrote this in my notes, so I can put this out there when I get your notification that you released the lyric video for “talk me down.” I have listened to the song before writing this, it’s amazing. It touched me in a way I feel like no one has ever done so. Seriously powerful and the most relatable song I’ve ever heard. That’s probably not a good thing but nonetheless, amazing. I love you guys, and thank you so much for everything you do and helping me keep going on in life

[@CeladonSparrow]

You did the right thing ❤ The hardest part is over and I believe in you. You can do this. And yeah, we can agree that CS is awesome for making music that can help so many people like you and me ❤

[@hersheldubree6147]

Hang in there, I was in a relationship for six years like that it's approaching a year out of it, it's a struggle but it worth it

[@justaloafofbread]

Your story sounds almost exactly like my boyfriends first relationship.. My problems are different, but I feel your pain through him. I'm glad you're still here

[@behindthecamera3050]

you got this. what is something that makes you happy hold on to that. in my dark days thats what helps. I believe you can do it you are stronger than you know.

[@wingding0111]

It may sound harsh but it worked for me. The best way to deal with this is to accept that it happened because you can’t change the past. Accept that it has impacted your life. Then let it go. I’m not saying to forget it. It’s in the past and you need to learn how to leave it there. Again, I realize it can sound harsh, but it definitely worked for me

[@soullessdarksteel3040]

You guys have no idea how much you've changed my life up to now. Each song has driven me to push through my hardships. And it has paid off, with my new relationship. Thank you❤

[@CitizenSoldier]

Glad to hear the music helps 🫶 Appreciate you

[@Gacha_Life-rv7yz]

It helps me too, I’ve been though a lot in my 15 years of life, a lot of deaths amd other things

[@ScarykidReal]

Lucky that you can actually heal from it

[@jibrilamvs]

Their music literally saved my life when I was walking the path of suicide. I’m glad they’ve helped you in your struggles and helped you recover as well.

[@jamesriden6995]

​@@CitizenSoldier I have recently discovered your music and let me tell you have talked me off that ledge a few times so continue to be the voice for the voice less it is appreciated and also needed so thank you all

[@solar5406]

That "Why won't they listen" hit hard. This entire song hits hard. You did an amazing job, guys, and you're helping so many people. I hope you know that ❤

Thanks 🫶

[@bushboi6942]

This one really does put words to what it feels like on that ledge. About how you’re just alone before the fall into eternity, yet somehow you still talk yourself down 🫀

[@Adrian-SuperNova]

My neighbors love this one as much as I do, they even hit the wall in appreciation. 😎

[@AlysonBate]

I think that people who don't understand why songs like this are needed don't realize is that awareness is not enough. Validation is one of the most crucial parts of anyone's journey with mental illness, trauma/PTSD, etc. You guys are so good at providing that. 💙 ; Thank you for continuing to let people feel heard.

[@aussiewarriorwithbpd9380]

So true! You hit the nail right on the head there.

[@xxandrewkunxx]

You guys are the best, thank you for being here 🐥🦋🦋

[@CitizenSoldier]

Hope the music helps 🫶 Much love

[@reilleyisawesome17]

this song is amazing. i have PTSD and it feels like i suffer alone because no matter how much i reach out for help, nobody ever helps. this song makes me feel less alone :-) thank you

[@opulenceharbingerofchaos3939]

I… I don’t even know what to say. I thought “Afterlife” would remain my favorite song for a long time, but this… I don’t even know how to describe this song. I love it more than I thought I would. The instrumentals are strong, fast, and unique. The vocals are amazing as always. The lyrics… anything I say would be an understatement as to how amazing the lyrics are.

[@CitizenSoldier]

Appreciate those words 🫶

[@petru-leevannieuwenhuizen8421]

Doubt that you will see this, but I wanted to share. I had a dream last night, I was thinking in my dream I wonder if this building is tall enough, did not want to just get hurt, decided to go for it anyway and started walking, Jake called out to me and when I ignored you, you ran after me and stopped me. This is what your music has been to me the past few months, you've talked me down from the other side of the world so many times, like I know you have done for many others. With all of my heart I thank you, keep making the extraordinary music you do!!

[@oggo329]

Saying "I love this!" would be too cliche for such masterpiece, but I don't know what else to say.. I love this!

[@nestcap736]

WE ARE CLIMBING OUT OF DEPRESSION WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Ethan2.3]

Ladies and gentlemen... Another masterpiece! It's so good 😭🖤🖤🖤

[@Aster0-0]

"Is there any reason to fight this if nobody's missing me?" is one of the verses that hits me the hardest. It hurts when you try to reach out but everyone makes it seem like your trauma is too small to matter and they end up making you think you're exagerating and that you're making a big deal out of nothing. Your songs help me see I'm not as alone as I feel I am most of the time, thank you so much for them.

[@marinasvensson9759]

Just got disowned by my parents for confronting them about the abuse of suffered at their hands.

Another Masterpiece . Honestly I can seriously relate to this one I’m not okay right now I’m in a dark place at the moment and there’s sometimes I feel like this is there any point in fighting this like sometimes I feel like no one would care if I disappeared or went to sleep one day and never woke up again I guess I feel this whole song hard right now but I’m gonna keep going and fighting

"Silence is getting loud" the longer I'm alone the louder my head gets the more it attacks me telling me I'm better off dead

[@kayleeking1971]

This is exactly how I feel right now. Extremely depressed like I'm spiraling out of control, stuck in a dark black hole that I can't get out of. Shattered in a million little pieces that can't be put back together, and it hurts cause it feels like there's no one to talk me off the ledge I'm on. Your music is so comforting and healing cause it's the one thing that understands me when I feel like I'm all alone like no one can talk me down ❤️😭

[@JoanneCamp1]

I’m in that place too. 😢

[@skelletonheart9585]

Thanks guys this song is exactly what i needed right now, I'm still in therapy and had a few great days but 4 or 5 days ago my knee made problems (I have a partially riped miniskus) and i have problems getting up stairs driving and moving in general, i still can do everything but in a lot of pain. I know that it probably will get better but right now its just hard to move on.

[@CitizenSoldier]

Glad to hear the music helps and therapy as well. Sorry to hear about your knee. Hopefully it gets better! 🫶

[@Suicidalkid1800]

I can relate to this song so much 🖤

It's incredible how we're all united under this song through the mutual feeling of loneliness 😢 Citizen soldier, thank you guys for making these masterpieces, and building up a safe community where all us broken-hearted and unheard people can finally feel heard 🙏❤️‍🩹 Bless you

[@Loz.musicz]

guys this song is amazing. I relate to it so much and it reminds me of how I felt when I was in a crisis and in hospital. thank you for capturing these emotions so well. love y'all x

[@christopherallen4935]

I like that you guys seem to understand. I turn to your music when my demons come to try and call me home.

[@kazegamirito9031]

The exact way to feel in college during those lectures where you can't understand a thing. Everything is hazy and you feel like you wanna scream. Song is very relatable to those moments

[@kemi9832]

Another banger for our mental health and our souls. Words cannot describe how much I love you guys. Keep it going forever please!! 🥹🫶🏼🫶🏼👏🏼

[@drawingdinokai]

Its only been 4 hours, yet I have had this song on repeat, for every single second of them! I needed this song, THIS is how I feel.. this song is me 99.9% of nights. Thank you for another hard hitting, meaningful song! Love y'all!

Let's enjoy this new song 💜💜💜

[@koinoz_xero8389]

OK, this is BY FAR the song that has gave the most chills and strong emotions I absolutely love it!❤‍🔥❤‍🔥🥰

[@xXJocelynKittyXx]

Depression is such a terrible thing to go through. You keep all your negative feelings to yourself, afraid of ruining someone's day if you speak out. You desperately want to tell someone, but if you do, they dismiss you and tell you to just, "be happy" when its not that easy. I really, really, thank you guys for all these songs. Everytime I listen to this, or any other songs from you guys, I instantly feel like I'm not alone.

[@phoenix-hb5hl]

This hits really hard, thank you guys for another heavily relateable song. My struggles with mental health have always been something difficult to talk about, y’all really find impressive ways of bringing that out

[@user-lp8de9bj2t]

that part about chasing people, that hits home. soo many people who say they care and are there for you but never come to you when you need it, you always have to seek their attention... regardless how much you always go them and support them. hard knowing who your real friends are sometimes..

I know I just made a co.comment on a different song of yalls but yall are very much a source for me to understand what I'm feeling. Citizen soldier, yall are doing amazing work for us out here and I thank yall so much. When I found yall, I was ready to throw in the towel, than I head face to face and that fired me up to fight back. Yall saved me, seriously yall did and I can not thank yall enough.

It's 3am again My mind is caving in But no one's listening But no one's listening Bottles of medicine My closest thing to friends 'Cause no one's listening 'Cause no one's listening I'm on the edge of a crisis But what should I make a sin Is there any reason to fight this? If nobody's losing sleep My life's a ledge right now Nobody knows about There's no one to talk me down There's no one to talk me down So sick of reaching out Silence is getting loud With no one to talk me down With no one to talk me down No one, no one to talk me No one, no one to talk me No one, nobody to stop me No one, no one to talk me down These fights strike me away Down to the darkest place But no one's listening But no one's listening People I have to chase Prove I’m not worth the pain 'Cause no one's listening Why won’t they listen My life's a ledge right now Nobody knows about There's no one to talk me down There's no one to talk me down So sick of reaching out Silence is getting loud With no one to talk me down With no one to talk me down I’ve tried to call in a crisis Nobody's answering me Is there any reason to fight this? If nobody's listen me My life's a ledge right now Nobody knows about There's no one to talk me down There's no one to talk me down My life's a ledge right now Nobody knows about There's no one to talk me down There's no one to talk me down So sick of reaching out Silence is getting loud With no one to talk me down With no one to talk me down No one, no one to talk me No one, no one to talk me No one, nobody to stop me No one, no one to talk me down

[@justynabiaas6775]

Personally, I don't have any problems with depression and loneliness. I am happy and have a good life, but I know that not everyone is so lucky. I am a compassionate person and it saddens me that the world is so cruel, full of bans and bad people. Citizen Soldier, the world needs someone like you who understands these people and is able to help them through music. Music heals, songs make you feel understood and accepted by people you don't even know and that's wonderful. I'm glad that in this gloomy world there is a light of hope in you, I love you ❤️🔥 To all those who struggle with depression and the rest of the world's problems, don't give up! You are stronger than that of believing it will get better. Life is not only made up of pain and suffering, there are also good moments waiting for you. I know that I will never understand your problems and needs, and words will not do much, but I hope that your lives will brighten up and improve. Don't lose hope guys! 💖✨

[@Xiao1083]

I cannot express how thankful I am that I found you guys. You guys have helped me through so much, I have been listening since the release of "I'm not okay" and "Would anyone care?" And you still continue to help me through every day life

[@samanthabruce1657]

This band has helped me so much through these past few years. I was already struggling with Depression and thoughts of ending it all and it just got worse when my Grandfather ended his life. Because of that I developed insomnia but when I put songs from you guys on, you said the words that I couldn't and I can never thank you enough. You guys help so many with music and I am proof. Another amazing song well done. ❤

[@mommanilcake]

Honestly I had a really bad moment recently, I was on the edge of doing something bad. Your music means so much, it pushes and drives to try do better. When I'm in a point where I'm not in a safe space mentally I turn to your music for help and comfort. You're the voice that speaks out when it's hard to speak. My job has been destroying me mentally and emotionally that it's started to affect me physically. But your music is my go too. I felt trapped, I don't like burdening those I care about. I did finally reach out to my older brother, he managed to talk me down from doing something stupid. Your music has such an impact on so many peoples lives. And you guys are simply amazing. Thank you for doing what you do and please keep it going

[@LateSorrowOFFICIAL]

This super helped show that friends really haven't cared to reach out when they know something's up
