I've Lost Everything

[@Campingdownunder]

Thank you so much for this overwhelming support from everyone 🙏 I'm truly blown away by how many people have reached out & commented. I can't explain how much it all means to me. Especially those people who even helped me by becoming patreons. That support means more to me than I can put into words. Sorry if I can't reply to every comment. I'm doing my best but I wasn't expecting this much support ❤️ I wasn't expecting any help or support. I purely made this to help others speak out about what they may be going through but too afraid to speak up. As you've seen from this video if I can do it for the world to see don't be embarrassed confiding in a mate 👍

[@lifestyledownunderadventur5456]

Hey mate I've sent you a msg on Facebook

Hopefully I responded to it. I've responded to all the messages I can see on Facebook 👍​@@lifestyledownunderadventur5456

[@brianellis2274]

You said this is nothing compared to what you've been through in the past. As a man in my late 60's who's certainly seen the ups and downs of life, my advice is to use what you've been through in the past to draw strength from to handle what you are now facing. You've done it before so you know what you are capable of mate, and can do it again.

[@HD-J.R.]

You have to go to your son. That will fill the voids, give your life purpose, and the payoff is the love you'll get in return. The joy thats missing is giving back, that's why sharing and helping with this video feels good. Give back to your son. He needs you and you need him.​@Campingdownunder

[@thekid2162]

Hey mate I know life’s hard right now but keep pushing keep trying, life’s not easy but your situation is temporary and things will get better.

[@marysmith5891]

Hang in there. I lost everything at 60 and wasn't sure what I was going to do. I had already retired on just a partial pension and had health issues that prevented me from returning to work. It was a terrible 2 years sorting everything out, but now at 67 I have to say I have never been happier in my whole life. You are never too old to begin from where you are. You have your rv, you are still young, you have a job. Why throw your money away on a house? Nothing wrong with renting a room and spending most of your time travelling. It is your time, follow your dreams, travel, explore. Maybe in time your son will see what an adventure your life is and want to join you camping. Hang in, it gets better, I promise.

[@MetaHead]

Nah mate you don’t have to take responsibility for anything. You made a big move to better your family, if she folded after 3 months that speaks volumes about her and not you. You seem like a really great bloke, and you’re so brave to speak about your feelings. No idea why I was recommended this but you’ve gained a subscriber!

You did NOTHING wrong. Any normal spouse would’ve said to go for 3 months as you’ve secured a job. It’s her loss, do not think you have done anything wrong at all.

[@Slaggo]

Agreed; she wanted to live in the new area, so it made sense for him to start working in the new area and get established. Then she gets pissy about him not waiting 3 months before going to the new area? Come on.....that's some mind job.

[@newforestpixie5297]

yes 12 weeks soon goes for gods sake. cow .

[@jayrad4312]

Mate being away for 3 months is nothing. If that's all it's taken for her to leave, she probably isn't the most loyal person in the world. I get that there are always other things going on. Relationships are so bloody complicated and some other little things have probably compounded, but at the same time, 3 months away to try and get a head start on your new life together is nothing but a small amount of patience and support. If it wasnt now, then it would have been in a month, a year etc. Endure the sting and come out stronger for it. God bless brother, never apologise for following your dreams 👍

[@MGTOWGreatestHits]

Do you really think that crap is helpful? No matter how you slice it, what he’s done has got him there. I understand you’re trying to be supportive but you’re actually just enabling. ‘If you you want more of what you’ve got, do more of what you’ve done’. He is 100% responsible for his situation, that’s the simple fact.

[@Teenywing]

@@newforestpixie5297calling his wife “a cow” is not helpful at all. People fall apart. No matter what he cares about her so calling her names just makes him feel bad and defensive, so good for you for being that guy. It happens….obviously, she didn’t pack it in over 12 weeks.

I would disagree. Evidence shows people are the biggest healers for mental health. Loneliness is more damaging to your health than smoking. You need one or two people you can see every week just for enjoyment. A minority of people can do the hermitd life, but not many.

[@leighsayers2628]

Exactly ..it's not good to be sooo needy ....

[@Deusaga]

There's some truth to what both you and the OP says. Humans do feel best when we have a close circle of peers. But too many people are not happy with themselves, and look for happiness from others. 'I will be happy when I get a girlfriend/boyfriend'. That is a surefire way to have a TOXIC relationship. To only be happy because of someone else, is to leech their happiness. These people jump from relationship to relationship as in, they're not single for a long time at all. Which imo sounds like what Camping Downunder's Ex is like. To derive your happiness from another and not yourself, means you will sap their happiness. How can you truly love someone else if you don't love yourself first? The answer is, painfully.@@MrZoomah

When we embrace the change it makes it easier, focus on your channel you can make difference in someone else's life by sharing you're truth. My suggestion if I was you,work for now stay with that lady save your money, when she leaves quit your job and get to know yourself again, head to a area that's affordable and start again. People that jump into relationships quickly after ending one haven't healed, don't be hard on yourself, if she couldn't wait 3 months that shows you her commitment level to the connection..enjoy the ride. be flexible with change, most people freak out, reality is change is much better than staying in stagnate energy. Heal your heart and trust in process. .Let go of the idea you can't do it on you own, you can and you will. Best of luck buddy. Nothing is permanent remember that !😊

Mate, this is the first time I have seen one of your videos which was just by chance. I can assure you it's not your fault at all. You did what any responsible person would have done in your situation. Now you have to bite the bullet again and go back for your son. He's your responsibility not your mates and you have to put his needs ahead of what you want at the moment. Once you have some stability and security in you and your son's life then you can reevaluate. Hopefully you will see this when you have your break and your head clears. Best wishes.

Firstly congratulations on the bravery to share this to the world. It takes immense courage. Secondly, I would go see the doctor. You might be amazed the additional clarity and personal resources you gain with appropriate support. Third and last, I am typically against people offering advice to people on the internet. I don't know the full situation and who makes me qualified. With that in mind, I do however agree with the comment I am replying to. There is no shame in going back to be with your so , rebuilding and then having another crack in a year or two.

[@rowancamilleri6986]

Agree with this comment. Go back and you'll feel better being with your son and he'll feel better having you around also. It doesn't mean you've failed in trying to make a change in your life, the relationship breakdown wasn't part of the plan and threw you curve ball. Time to go back and regroup, get some stability for the time being and reduce the stress levels so you can think clearly again and then you'll find a way forward. Improvise, adapt and overcome. Best of luck

If a woman won’t work a hard as you have to get this far she’s not worth your time especially if she jumped straight into the arms of another! I look at relationships like this - Is it equal ? Do you get back what you give or do you have to give give give to maybe get something? Does she weaponise anything in your present relationship or from your past relationships, Don’t spend your life needing a partner I’m on my own after 4 serious relationships 6 kids, The damage family break ups family courts and greedy selfish people hav caused kills men ! It took me years of depression to realise I’m at my best alone, I make seriously great money cleaning and bird proofing solar panels for my self it’s crazy money ! Good luck reach out if you need.

@@Campingdownunder yeah that’s right. Rent’s cheap, bout $100-120/week electricity included, no bond no rent in advance no lease. There’s always something going on in parks, keeps you from dropping off the radar. It’s your own house you can do what you want when you want. I personally would think about heading back to the parents for a bit and set yourself up for your new adventure. And spend some time alone to process what’s gone down. Don’t put too much faith in the modern woman. If they’re single at this age they’re meant to be. There’s a lot of information out there by both male and female psychologists on how the female mind works. Do a little research, accept any faults of your own, you’ll no doubt find some peace of mind. If your crazy enough to have another go at least you’ll no what red flags to look for.

Don’t take this the wrong way, but she was looking to end your relationship regardless of wether you left or not. A normal relationship would get over you being absent for 3 months, and her finding another partner quickly also suggests that had little to do with it either.

@@seanrawlinson Totally! It’s the pathetacism mode, sitting there whining like a baby about some rotten skank, leaving his own son with a friend, it’s a recipe for the situation he’s in. I’m a single dad with full time care of my son and we homeschool and we’re both so unbelievably happy with that, our energy and resources go to that, I’m not chasing dirty cheating whores or letting anyone cuck me or take my time, energy or finances away from us, and that must be number one priority. He should be thinking more like this particularly given how finite his resources are.

[@PwnySlaystation01]

I know this isn't for everyone, but I decided relatively early in my life not to get married/move in with anyone. Was just a personal choice, I still dated and had some pretty long-term relationships, but I've just seen marriage (or the equivalent of co-habiting) destroy so many men that I've known, both financially and emotionally, I just figured it wasn't for me. I really couldn't be happier to be honest. Luckily, I never had a major urge to have kids. When kids are involved, this whole calculation changes, but really with the right mindset I think living alone can be fantastic. Obviously if a relationship just ended, it's going to be rough going for a while, but yeah... Keep an open mind about it and don't be too hard on yourself. Men can be really hard on themselves, especially when they've convinced themselves they've failed their family. It's important to take responsibility, but men have a tendency to take on too much IMO.. Again, don't be too hard on yourself.

[@skullsaintdead]

@@perrrry That's a disgusting sexist comment, I'm an Aussie women and was cheated on probably up to 5 x times with different girls (one as young as 14 - omfg this is rape - she also had endured SA from her dad for years so was a little messed up re: relationships with men; as soon as I found out he'd been cheating and lying about his whole identity, I left). I had to get a restraining order against him when he falsely claimed I'd broke and entered his house, only to type a Word doco (?) on his PC. He also said he'd secretly filmed us being intimate and would post that online. I was only 18-19 at the time and had no experience in looking for psychopathic liars. Revenge porn, staling weren't crimes in 2011 (or so I was told). I was lucky he was too lazy to be really dangerous, he threatened to kill me, my dog, my family by burning down the house. I woke up my parents screaming in my sleep thinking he was on top of me, violating me (edit: he was outside, across the road, watching the house, breaking the restraining order but because of CHOGM, the police were too busy to enforce). Don't ever make such a sexist statement again. We all suffer from low-empathy, worthless people, no matter the gender.

[@woooooooo9061]

@@skullsaintdeadI agree. However, I do think women are significantly less loyal in relationships. And when they cheat, there’s always an excuse ( there is absolutely no excuse for cheating) most guys at least own it, and take responsibility. Women always blame someone or something else. That is awful that happened to you. I’m so sorry you had to go through that .

[@kerrisaint3013]

As soon as you shared about your partner blaming you for the 3 months decision, I knew it wasn’t about you . Clearly she had already exited the relationship and was only thinking of herself and I am so sorry to hear that. I went through a terrible marriage break up, so I know how hard it can be. Let me tell you from a women’s perspective, because you really need to hear this, “ It was not your fault “! My advice is, yes find a counselor to talk to, and keep doing the things you love , find some good mates and take good care of your health. Once your head is in a good place, things will look much better and life will start to flow again. I don’t know how old your son is, but I am sure given time things will evolve for the better where he is concerned. Might be good to do some research into ndis funding and help with housing for him near you, if you cannot find a place together. Though everything you have done is not the ideal, and you’re currently struggling, please know that things can improve. My whole life changed some years ago and I now suffer from a disability, that prevents me from travelling like you do.. and I love 4x4, fishing, camping etc so watching KZbin channels like yours help fill a void for me and keep inspiring me to keep fighting to get better. I do have my own 4x4 and Hobie kayak and camper but can only do very short trips. I would love to travel full time, but it’s not possible. So while I am on the couch struggling, I watch others enjoying their adventures, which brings me a lot of joy and helps pass the days I’m in terrible pain. So here is my message, please enjoy your life, pick up your camera and keep posting as there are plenty of people like me whose lives are blessed by being taken on adventures while sitting at home. I certainly would have gone stir crazy 🤪 without vids like yours. I lost my youngest son, 6 years ago so I understand the depths of depression, and I had to find the smallest things to cling to, to hang on, and find away through it.. find what makes “you” happy and everything else will eventually fall into place! Right now you’re grieving your losses and that’s normal, but please make a decision to not stay in grief and find the joy you deserve. Best wishes and stay strong .

[@petranilla14]

I came to the comments looking for this. SHE was already out of the relationship before he left. SHE set that up by encouraging him to plan the move. I am not someone who sides with men, I've had to watch this twice looking for holes to blame him. But Yes. SHE CAUSED THIS not him. He needs to get on meds temporarily go to therapy, and go about his life. Work save money. Nothing wrong with living in a vehicle.

[@Campingdownunder]

Thank you so much for your advice. I'm so sorry to hear about what you've had to go through. My son is 21 & has been with the NDIS since he was 18. We've been trying to organise housing for him & possibly myself as well as I'm his carer but it's taken months so far & we still have no idea what's happening. We have a meeting with them this week. Hopefully we can get an answer. He's happy to move across here as long as he has a bed each night

[@Campingdownunder]

I pushed her away over the past year as we were in a bad place in our relationship. She was actually the one putting in all the effort trying to fix our relationship even seeking professional help to try & better herself. But I did nothing. I should have put equal effort into fixing or at least attempting to fix our relationship after about 8 months of trying as hard as possible to fix things in the end she just gave up. So I do still take blame even though we were both in the wrong & the way she ended it wasn't the right way to go about it

I get that feeling a lot. And man does it scare people (friends AND mental health professionals) when I say that I just want to sleep and not wake up until I'm 'well' in my head, my heart and my soul ! It's not that I don't want to be alive - I very much do! My desire IS to enjoy life AND to be able to be at peace and confident in my ability to cope in difficult times. I want to have the equanimity to embrace life's challenges and be able to make mindful decisions in the way I have in the past. But so often now there's a thick and discombobulating mental and emotional pall surrounding me. It envelops and attaches to me. It drags off me so heavily; it obscures my path and taints my objectivity so much that life seems unsolvable and overwhelming. I get so lost in that murkiness, so tired of trying to climb up and out into clarity, that I just want take a mental holiday. Take a time-out from the struggle and come back refreshed and in better shape to cope with everything. And I don't want to just sleep, because of the oppressive and vivid nightmares. I just want to switch off for a while, recharge, recover and then return to life, back in charge of my mental health.

Oh my God mate....I feel for you....I'm a 62 year old lady lived in my little motorhome for 5 years now after 20 year relationship breakdown...and boy do I feel lonely, depressed and don't know what to do sometimes but I do try to be positive and look at what I've got...wish I had someone to share my love of travelling Australia and nature also. You're only young...make the most of it...I'm sure things will get better for you....don't worry be happy...turn the music up and SING....(no sad songs tho) ❤

[@Campingdownunder]

I appreciate the comment 👍 I'm glad to see your making the most of your situation and staying positive aswell. I always try and stay positive. But it's pretty hard sometimes

Hey mate, I lost my son last year. He was addicted for years prior to that. Just hang in there mate, dig down for that next bit of positively. Things get better bit by bit, you are right we are not alone. There is always hope, always. Thank you so much for sharing! I lost a son, it is the most unimaginable emptiness and permanent thing I have experienced. You have yours, even though right now you are not together. Things will change, just keep on the course. We sometimes have to appreciate the things we have to help us through the very rough times.

[@joannesahadeo9295]

I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost mine too back in 2013. You're right, it's the hardest thing I've ever gone through. Sending you the biggest hug.

[@Alexsniper001]

So sorry to hear about your Son mate.

[@garypinholster1962]

She found someone else that quick? She was already checked out. I went thru something very similar about 10 years ago. Enjoy your solo time. Seriously. At first it will he rough. And it will feel lonely. But once you start opening up again, life will change massively. Goodluck bud. You got this.

[@Deusaga]

For real. For her to have 5 kids and already find someone willing to take 5 of another man's litter into his responsibility, that is extremely unlikely within 3 months of being single.

[@WILLD_CARS]

You’ve inspired me to help more people and to check in on my mates more often. Thank you! I hope things change and your situation improves man, I really do

[@christinewong5867]

This is a very important video. You’ve shown people that you can be feeling down and hopeless but by sharing those thoughts, and taking time to clear your head, you can get through this. Such an important message for all of us, but guys especially. No one has the “perfect life”. There are great times, and there are shit times. That’s life. Thank you for sharing. First of your videos that I’ve seen. I’ve now subscribed, so I’m looking forward to hearing your updates. Good luck with finding your way through. You’ll get there. Sending lots of love from Qld Xx

Hey dude. Sounds like a pretty woeful situation you've found yourself in. I think you hit the nail on the head with the idea of moving back to get yourself back to a stable and reliable situation. The "same" is not always such a negative thing. Especially when you're trying to fix issues as fragile as yours. I used to post fairly similar content and cover similar issues but deleted the lot because I felt so much shame and weakness from it. It is not easy or natural for a lot of people to be that open or vulnerable. Whatever you do decide, sounds like you've got some great humans in your life that you can chat with and vent to. That's a huge asset you have. Take good care of yourself and your boy.

Commenting just to pass on some love. This took a lot of courage to post and I know it will help others be brave as well to know they are not alone and it’s ok to not be ok. Sometimes the best medicine is Mother Nature. Wishing you well!

[@davidmaclennan5925]

I really enjoyed watching this. I finally realised that I am not the only one going through this. I am in the exact same situation. Yet I am now 50 years old. The depression and anxiety are so full on! I spend most days contemplating which tree is the strongest, for my body weight It’s taken balls to publish this!

[@JohnLoogleman]

Please seek help mate. I know you probably have but I don't know what else to say. Please don't follow through with the permanent solution . You never know what is round the corner and there is no coming back from suicide. It's painful I understand but please stay in the fight.

[@Alexsniper001]

Sorry to hear about your suffering mate. Do what you can to survive the hardest times and try to keep going. You can do it 🙏

[@heatherhall3452]

Choose Jesus and you will be freed from Satans prison 🙏🏽❤️ he comes to lie, decide and steal souls

[@MR863]

Hi mate, don't know you at all but would do anything to help you. Kills me to hear you are struggling that much.

[@chrisbfreelance]

Keep putting one foot in front of the other, I thought happiness was no longer obtainable at one point, but I found it. Keep on swimming.
