It's time I opened up about something...

🚨 TW: Mental health, anxiety, & depression 🚨
It's time I opened up about what's been going on with me this year. I hope that if you're going through something similar, you can find the hope, peace, and healing you deserve. You're amazing and I hope you never forget that. 🫰🏻

Thanks for this Andrew!!! I’m right there with you, I can’t create anything unless I get my mental health reasonably under control lol. Keep fighting the good fight!!! 🫰💪

You know I will Maddie! Thanks for always supporting me. I really hope you're doing well! 🫰🏻🫰🏻

Hi Andrew, thank you for putting this up for those who needed to hear it 💕 Hoping you could find what you are searching for❤ Please don’t feel obligated to us subscribers. We’re just here to appreciate the fruits of your passion whenever they become ripe❤ Have a good and peaceful day❤

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

I really appreciate that. It's a journey, but I'm learning more about myself and am taking things slow. Thank you for all your support. ❤️

[@BerdineGuinness]

So freaken real! Anxiety is hideous! I tend to be able to push through Anxiety but if I don't practice self care I end up with panic attacks 🙄 it's so common now days! It's such a comfort to know we are not alone! And it's people like you being real, that even if your struggling will make a video that then becomes a lifeline to others! ❤❤

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

I appreciate it, Berdine! I'm just happy this video has been helpful. Self care really is sooooo important. 😌

[@JiMoMin]

Aye man it is good to get it out of the system and talk about it. For me personally, I would have struggled if not for the existence of that one best friend of mine. My life journal. My outlet. My confidante. My rock. I hope everyone has one too or somehow be able to find a way to navigate through such challenges through other means.

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

That's so true. I have mine and I totally get what you're saying. Gosh life would be so much more tough without them. I hope everyone can find that some point.

[@prenom9125]

Hi ! I don't usually comment videos but I follow you since a few months now and as someone who's struggling the same thing as you (with some extra cause 💅✨) You said you did this video not to receive comments like that but I have to tell you, you have to hear it bro your art is fantastic, all the cover you do are magical and the work you put in the editing is amazing and it's logical you take more time to do it ! Now I want to tell you're courageous to post on the internet, I started to do it as well on TikTok a few months ago to deal with my depression, to set daily/weekly goal yk, and ik it can be a source of anxiety too as well as a motivation so yeah ! You're doing good and you're not alone as well 😉 thank you to talk about it and for your kind words :) Apologies for my English since it's not my first language 🥲

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

Your English is more than enough and I really appreciate your kind words. They're very encouraging and made me smile, thank you. 🥹 Also, I hope you keep it up and that things get better for you! We'll all hit better days for sure. 🫰🏻

Well...i have no idea yet, but i have the money!! finallyyy!!!! so me buying a guitar might be soon!!~ we'll see cause im entering college in a month or so.@@ThatKpopGuitarist

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

Ohhhh both of those things are super exciting! As much as I hate to say it, your education and having enough money for it is more important than a guitar. 😂 But I hope you have the best time at college! I sure did. 😁

[@chelseahawks7875]

dw i have money for uni but ill still put it of just a liiittlle bit longer till i feel comfy there. I again wanna tell you how much i love your covers! hope one day i can play guitar like you!!! thank you for al your covers@@ThatKpopGuitarist

[@_Dani.Lynn_]

Sending everyone love and hugs! I have ADHD and have been dealing with social anxiety, adrenal fatigue and burnout for about 3 years now. I recently switched my therapist to someone to specializes in ADHD and it’s been amazing. I personally feel that every single person should have a therapist whether you have a disorder or not. I have learned that everyone struggles with something and it helps to have a non biased, non judgmental person to talk to. Much love! ❤

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

I can't agree with you more! It's pretty indescribable how much therapy can help, even with the smallest things. I'm really happy you've found someone who works well for you too! That can be quite a challenge. 🙃 but thank you as always for your support and for this fantastic reminder. 🫰🏻

[@schmittgetsreal]

ANDREW … man, I needed to hear every bit of this video right now. I’ve known for a while that I needed to get back to a therapist but just the process of finding one has been so daunting that I’ve put it off. It’s so hard to fight when every ounce of energy is going toward just basic functioning. I’m going to make a list of therapists in my area and start calling them. Like you said, even if I can’t believe it right now, my life is worth fighting for. So I’m gonna fight. I’m glad you are fighting, too.

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

Reading this made my entire week. Obviously, not the fact that you've been having a hard time. But the fact that my video had this type of impact and the impact on the others in this comment section makes my struggles worth it 1000x over. I'm seriously honored. I also TOTALLY understand how difficult it is to find a therapist. I actually found mine through Betterhelp. It's not for everyone, but they make finding and even switching therapists super easy. If you can't find one locally, it might be a good option! But I believe in you and I know that things will begin to take a turn for the better once you start therapy again. You've got this. ❤️🫰🏻

[@MrDanManTV]

I have definitely been there before and have struggled myself! Before my dad passed away, he was a therapist, and he used to say “Life is a marathon, not a race” take each day as it comes! Just know you aren’t alone

[@Alchera201]

I've been dealing with depression for almost half of my life at this point and most of my friends and loved ones have also been dignosed with one mental illness or another. It's through trying my best to help them and to lift them up that I've started to learn how to treat myself with the same kindness. It's a struggle, sure, but it's not unbearable when you're not alone. Thank you so much for sharing this with others. It means more than you know.

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

You're so welcome. Thank YOU for sharing part of your story. It's interesting you said what you said about learning how to take care of yourself through helping others. I've had a similar experience and it's so interesting how that works. But I'm glad it does. I hope you continue to have better days, you and those around you!

[@jamiek1714]

THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VID ANDREW! I too have been dealing with anxiety (especially social anxiety) and depression all my life. This is one of the best vids I've watched in a while an ocean of useless stuff on YT. If you made a separate channel, you could easily get 10 times your views. This vid is that good. It's powerful. It's encouraging. People need to hear it. There's a massive need for these types of vids. Thank you so much for making this vid. Please make more of these! I too took various meds throughout my life. I just want to warn people about meds. I took an SSRI for 8 years. It was the worst mistake I've ever made. I still suffer health issues bc of it even thought I've been off it for 10 years. The drug companies hide negative aspects of their drugs. Meds are better than nothing, but I urge people to be very careful of meds and to do massive research online before they take anything. I wish I never ever took SSRIs. The first solution should always be knowledge and self care. Not harmful, expensive meds pushed by doctors of the corrupt health system. May God bless and guide you all. May you all find good people to walk with you.

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

I'm so, so, so happy this video resonated with you so deeply. Like it seriously means the world and I deeply appreciate the kind words and encouragement. Comments like these make the video worth it 100 times over. ❤️🫰🏻 As for the meds, I've read so many similar stories and it's heartbreaking. Luckily, the person I've been working with is a minimalist and believes in combining meds with self care, therapy, etc. But it's a great reminder to be sure. Meds have their side-effects and everyone needs to figure out what works best for them. It's tough, but everyone deserves a personalized, intentional approach. I, too, hope everyone finds that. 🫰🏻

[@NIDA_MUSIC]

I can't wait to see you! I'll be waiting for you ❤️🔥

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

[@ZoeyHope]

1st of all, I'm very glad you're honest about your mental health. I've been going through depression and anxiety a lot, so I understand where you're coming from. Sending all my love and positive vibes your way because you definitely need them. 2nd, I know that NOBODY has ever done this. But, have you touched on Samuel's music (arredondo in case you get confused)? I was thinking if you could either do "One" or "Teenager", I would really love to hear some metal in at least one of those songs. I hope you're feeling better soon❤

[@KillrbunniKillrbunni]

I really appreciate you taking your time to share such a personal thing about your life. I've dealt with a major mental disease for several years and know exactly how it can affect every aspect of your life. The more you try to function normally or try to keep a strong façade for your family and friends, the more exhausting and overwhelming it is. The struggle to find the right combination of medication and therapy also compounds the difficulty your life already faces. Eventually I found a good combination of therapy and meds but the strongest weapon I have is my family. While I can still go out and function at least a good 80% sometimes the comfort I feel at home is better. This is where platforms like KZbin become their own form of therapy. Things like your videos and streams become so amazing especially when they deal with music. Ateez has long been my favorite group, the perseverance they have to fight for their place against these bands that are backed by wealthier and stronger companies is inspiring. You help bring them to life in your own way. The enthusiasm you have when you talk about them and cover their songs brings me extreme happiness, you can actually see your joy for sharing your music and reactions to them. It's beautiful and makes me happy. As draining as it is sometimes to deal with mental issues and how they affect your everyday life I hope you can continue to bring us your love for music. I hope music is for you what writing has been for me. COVID was a big set back with my mental issues but I pushed through it and wrote and entire book. Book one in a three part series, now I just need to muster up the nerve to convince myself to not be afraid of success and not doubt myself and find an agent. I hope someday someone can read my pages and feel as happy as your covers and smiling face make me feel. Feel free to reach out if you ever need some random stranger to talk to, I'd be more than happy to be there for you. Mia

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

Mia, now it's my turn to thank you for sharing so much of your own story. I really cannot explain to you how humbling and amazing what you wrote is. The fact that I've had a positive effect on you is something I'm blown away by and will never take for granted. I'm also so proud of you for fighting the way you have and writing a freaking BOOK, despite your challenges. Like I can barely write a cover sometimes, so I can't imagine how hard a freaking BOOK is. 👀 I hope you find all the success in the world and continue finding peace and support in your family and other things. I'll keep doing my best, you keep doing your best, and we'll both absolutely kill it. 🫰🏻🤘🏻❤️

[@mirai_tiny]

thank you so much Andrew, honestly, I really appreciate you and what you do!!! I've been dealing with anxiety and depression for a decade, now I can say that but only in the process I understood, and I'm still learning. I've a hard time to transform it into something, I never feel "better enough" to do something, my mind is just mess, you can say that I live stagnant and it's frustrating, makes me wonder how people do when it's so overwhelming for me. I'm going to see ateez on the 26th and it's a 25th birthday present, but I don't feel like I deserve because I lack a lot plus it's scary to travel alone and go to a stadium full of strange people but at the same time I want find myself again because I was someone else before the pandemic, of course I won't be the same person but I know I can be stronger than I once was. we are by no means alone fellow atiny and we will break these walls too. there is a saying "while there is life there is hope" so that's how we should sail.

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

Thank you so much for the kind words and, most importantly, for opening up about what you're going through. It's sooooooo easy to focus on what you lack and what challenges you face when you're going through a mental health battle. Like many days, that's my default response to it all, to just sit in the negativity and dwell on how things are going poorly. However, one thing my therapist taught me that's been helping is the idea of countering. So, for every negative thought or mindset, there's almost always a positive side to it you can counter it with. For example, going to a concert by yourself can be truly overwhelming, but you'll also be surrounded by fellow Atiny, who are some of the nicest and most caring people in the world. It's not easy, and it might not help you in the same way, but I at least wanted to offer that in case it does help. But at the end of the day, you deserve happiness and things like seeing Ateez live, regardless of how you feel about yourself. Better days will come and I know you find that new, better version of yourself you mentioned. Change is often hard because it feels new, or frightening, or strange. But it almost always makes us better than before. ❤️🫰🏻 You can do it! 😁

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

Also, happy early birthday! 😁🥳

I remember how long it took for me too to finally face the situation and name it. I think that was both the hardest and bravest thing I ever done in my life. I also remember how it felt the first time I finally managed to openly talk about these problems of mine. I think talk to a therapist can be a good choice because even for me too it opened my eyes for a lot of things. Although I do believe that we can't really expect for somebody to just come and change our mind about everything. It's like your room, if you not gonna organize it nobody will do it for you. At least personally I like to think that way. Anyways, I hope everybody who struggles with same stuffs will be able to gain a little comfort from your words. Let me leave a little quote from one of my favourite song from HIM here, who knows it might resemble with someone 😊💖 I see through the darkness My way back home The journey seems endless But I'll carry on The shadows will rise And they will fall And our night drowns in dawn Amidst all the tears there's a smile That all angels will greet with an envious song One look into strangers eyes And I know where I belong

[@tiara6726]

😢 thank you for giving a beautiful video, it's really possible that there are many out there who experience the same thing, being selfish is not wrong, prioritizing your own happiness, having valuable time and good impressions every day is important, don't close yourself off to something can make yourself better, especially something that can't be handled alone and becomes broken inside, take it all out! - hugs and greetings from me to you ❤

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

You're so welcome. I agree with you 1000%. Talking with someone, getting what you're dealing with out there (in the right and appropriate place) is life changing and can give you so much strength to continue on. And of course, being selfish is totally fine when you're actually taking care of yourself. Took me a bit to realize that but once I did, it helped a ton. Thank you for your support and for the reminder. 😁🫰🏻

I hope all of us find something that makes us truly happy one day because all you beautiful people deserve it! Much love to you Andrew and whoever passes over my comment!

I went through a similar experience with my mental health. I was on SSRIs for the past year and I stopped taking them a month ago after tapering off. They would work for a short period of time but then they would either stop working or the side effects became too much to handle. Surprisingly, I feel better after stopping. I think the medication DID work. It served as a reset button for me. However, I don’t think everyone is meant to stay on SSRIs forever. What I’m saying is, if you’re still having a hard time finding a medication that works for you (and if you feel safe doing so) maybe trying going off of them and see how you feel?

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

It's super interesting that you say that actually. The SSRI's I've been on have worked for periods of time and kind of stopped working for me too. Going off of them entirely has actually been something I've seriously considered if the next one or two don't work well. All meds come with some sort of a side effect and I truly hate that. Well definitely see what happens though. I appreciate you taking the time to share that! 🙏🏻

Not the content I expected after that smooth coffee-intro. Mental health seems to be one of the most difficult things to control in modern days. Life was tough in earlier times, but the amount and the type of input, also the large amount of possibilities (many of them seeming achievable, but remaining unreachable forever) are just exhaustening.... I always actively try to control my mindset and mental health. Often it works, sometimes not. That's the time where friends are what I need most :) Hope you're staying fine and find the right ways to deal with all your troubles and anxiety. Mybe even without medication. Greetings from a fellow Insomnia

[@ThatKpopGuitarist]

Yeah, I see creators taking breaks or talking about their mental health a lot more now. We're faced with so much mental and emotional stimulation on a daily basis and you have to be so intentional about taking time away from it all. Mindset is sooooo important too, especially with the way the world is. 🙃 But thanks for the support. I'll keep giving it my all, whether it's through medication or something else. 🤘🏻
