Honestly, i didn't find this scary at all. In my eyes this is a beautifully portrayed artwork of someone's experience.

Completely agree with the 2nd to last sentence. “Art doesn’t have to be beautiful”. More people need to realize that. Too many people claim that something is “not art” because it isn’t pleasant. Whether that would be a painting, sculpture, song, film, or any other form of art

I have (among other stuff less relevant to this) a diagnosis of Avoidant Personality Disorder and while this seems to be portrayed ss catalysed by the pandemic, but to me and the way this disorder affected/affects me, nothing like this project made me relate that hard. This project is dear to me and I am eternally grateful for _Boisvert and his (maybe coincidential) extremely accurate and articulated of life with this or other related disorders.

[@eloctherandom1214]

@daniellaplante111 I understand your pain brother, I might not have the disorder or at the very least be officially documented by it, but at the point when I wrote that comment, I was close to the darkest point in my life, and completely threw everyone close to me as far away as possible. Never wanted to talk to anyone. Never wanted to even fake a smile anymore. I wish and hope it gets better for you and even though we have never met, I'm here for you.

[@briannareichert4709]

I was diagnosed with clinical depression when I was 17, and I'm currently 25. This channel and its message, the theory that Mat has so perfectly put together, hit so close to home for me. It's a never-ending up and down roller-coaster. It falls apart, and you rebuild it constantly as you ride. Not only has that channel perfectly encompassed what it can be like going through one of those downs, but how it also feels to finally breach out of one into an up. Mat, you did an amazing job spelling out this theory, and i thank you. (Sorry for the rambling) 🖤

[@chiskeykku]

i love boisvert and his art and I relate so much about living with it and somehow still manage to try. Ive been showing signs of it since I was in gradeschool but it fully manifested when i was in highschool. im now in college and still struggle with it. i love to find content in a form of art which makes me oddly feel comfort even though it's grunge-y and dark. i think the visuals hits hard because i also think that it captures the visualization of having depression

[@dizzaray25]

As someone who's lived with depression my whole life and agoraphobia for the last few years this hit really hard. It's a horrifying depiction but *it should be* people don't understand how truly debilitating depression can really be. So many people just assume it's some sort of mental weakness and we should be able to overcome it and be happy through pure will alone and that's not how it works. This was beautiful and dark and it's really accurate to my personal battles with mental health

[@yerpderp6800]

If you see someone with a bad leg you wouldn't tell them to overcome it with will alone. You can do exercises to alleviate the pain, sometimes meds can help, and for some folks a combination of both can get them back up and running. But people react differently to the exact same treatments, and a few unfortunate can only treat the symptoms but never get rid of it. The best you can do at that point is to learn how to live alongside the sickness, and maybe you can eventually learn to not resent it anymore and view it as a feature instead of a bug (speaking from personal experience)

I think you misread one thing Matpat. He isn’t flailing at the party, he’s showing off some sick dance moves… And nobody cared or noticed.

The "when does a home become a complex?" line hits hard for me. During the pandemic, my relationship of several years ended abruptly and most of the stuff I bought for my room were with help and advice from my ex. More than 6 months after the break up every tiny thing there reminded me of her and I started making crazy hours at my on-location job since that kept me busy and away from home, but once I got back home, it was right back to Depression Ville. I really didn't feel happy, safe and free in the place I lived.

I wonder if anyone ever feels too normal? Like you're not stupid so you can't live through life in blissful ignorance but you're also not smart enough to be useful. Too smart to be dumb and too dumb to succeed. Definitely depressed and anxious but not enough to fit in with other people that feel depressed and anxious. Like the ultimate background character. Even this comment of course people feel this way, It's common and "normal" It's always normal yet for some reason everyone else seems unique in that they are able to succeed in something even if it's succeeding at failing. I'd love to be able to fail good enough to get the failures reward, the reward of mental support and help from others but you're also too good to get proper help, too bad to do what needs to be done on your own. Absolutely worthless in every aspect of life unable to win or lose. You didn't win the race or lose the race. Your car broke down before you arrived but you managed to get a ride to the race 5 minutes late so you still arrived to watch, it's not like those other people that broke down and couldn't get a ride so they got stuck. Always failing just enough to fail at succeeding but not failing enough for anyone to care.

[@MILLLLAYYYYY]

@@OtakuWrath that is so true for many people, I find myself failing whether at school or work but it's not enough for someone to reach out and ask what's wrong, ''why cant you do this?'', I know its difficult but sometimes you've got to separate the failure from the success so you can see how much you do matter to people, even the little things like picking up that pencil they dropped or you, giving someone a smile when they need that most. You win more than you realise, we just fixate on the negative which is not healthy! This comment section is a safe space and I'll try and comfort anyone I can.

As someone diagnosed with anxiety and depression I can confrim this is 100% accurate. There are good days, bad days, and nightmare days and it doesn't just "Go away." It ebbs and flows and sometimes it's really hard to talk to people about it. If they don't understand what you're going through they try to give you solutions, and when you try and explain that it doesn't work that way they can get confused or upset with you. Having something that explains this for "outsiders" is helpful for those of us who are struggling.

[@kallistiravenhurst5232]

the main thing I know is it can be so frustrating to see things on the internet [i look at tumblr so...] where someone is like "don't worry, it'll get better!" when talking about *depression*. I get that there's a short-term version caused by recent trauma, but there's also the one that is a literal genetic issue that can never be 'fix', at least not without brain surgery in a terrifying way. it's things like this that make me hope there will be more messages of "you will get stronger", not that the "it will get better/easier" messages need to stop outright it's just... humans got to where we are because we could adapt, because we became better then the things trying to tear us down and if we just waited for it to get better for us we would have died to lions and tigers and bears ages ago. We might not even register the ways we're adapting and advancing in the moment, not notice how things aren't as scary, painful, or just plain awful...

I don't have the words to say how much it means to me, how much this video touched me. All I know is that things have so hard and I'm so tired, but I'm trying, and seeing your videos, especially one's like this, make it a little easier. Thank you Matpat.

It makes me glad that so many people have been able to finally see an accurate representation of their struggles. I have been diagnosed with Depression and there are many other things that I cannot relate to but seeing a video series like _boisvert helps me understand others. No one experiences anything the same way but creating more accurate and resonating media that speaks to many peoples struggles helps everyone understand each other better. I believe the enemy of kindness and love is ignorance and hopefully this video helped erase some of my ignorance towards those struggling with Depression.

As someone who was very very close to committing suicide, This is actually amazing. You have to be through the spiral of depression to understand. It was an very, very dark point of my life. Looking back at it now, I felt there was no point in life. I didnt feel bad for myself at all, I felt bad for my family. When I did do it. Yes, I was so close to doing it I felt there was no point or hope, I thought I had an week or two before I'd be dead, But.. That was false and I'm very proud, And happy now.. I'm very glad I didnt let my thoughts swallow me, Just passing on the depression to my family.

[@albanieurdaneta3221]

There’s something so disheartening about realizing the only reason you haven’t ended it yet is because you fear making your loved ones feel any worse than they would if you were still alive. You don’t care what happens to you, but you can’t bring yourself to put those around you through that. You tell yourself you could do it if no one cared, if you didn’t care, and sometimes your mind can convince yourself that it isn’t worth it to feel anything at all. The most dangerous thing in the world is your own psyche.

At the end of the day, depression pays no bills, and it won't bring food to the table. Once we are alone in cruel world like this, depression is just the many phases that comes with living in this reality. Survivability and the will to survive on your own just overtakes depression all together. Our parents won't always be there, so cherish every moment you have with them before you wish you could go back to the times were a single glance at them could be all it takes to see what really matters. Family.

My problems just simply won't leave after i say "i'm gonna live a happy life!" It lingers around and you can't really push it away completely. You have to live with it and make tons of little adjustments in your routine to not only survive, but truly live even if it's small things like asking people to not to call you and just text you, or to know when you start to feel tired and take a break, to bigger things like having built a system of reassuring things when it comes to work/school...
