God bless the Peterson family.

I didn't know Dr Peterson has depression. He's an incredible individual and I hope he recovers soon.

[@steven5054]

He is the very image of neuroticism.

[@anthonyredmond6713]

@Fuert Neigt Wow! You thought only stupid people feel depression. You win the internet with that remark!

[@avalonmist254]

This Professor has saved my Life. Blessings to him and his family.Bu By the way as a practicing nurse it is extremely common for the chronically ill to stay on medications like these because the detox could kill them.

Thanks for putting in the definition I hope Jordans getting better. I got that shit running through both sides of the family too

[@hellavadeal]

May he recover soon. His family are in our prayers.

[@hellavadeal]

I pray his family recovers well. I know he will be better for it.

[@Ikr2025]

The conclusion is - that it is ok to get external help when trying to transcend suffering. Every one is susceptible to different forms and levels of suffering. If we don’t seek any help in trying to transcend suffering, we can make things worse for those around us, because we cannot be of support to them. Eg if you broke your arm you would seek help with pain medication and medical help to recover. Same with anxiety & depression. Problem is sometimes the help we seek doesn’t work, or can make things worse in the short or long term. Its hard to make a perfect decision in which type of help to seek.

[@mommyfinger2655]

Please feel better Dr. Peterson.

[@CompostOracle]

Dr Jordan Peterson needs to meet Dr Joe Dispenza

[@Jaikukki]

That would be possibly the most epic dialogues of all time.

[@norasmith5330]

I love his honesty and wisdom

[@anamaria8]

May he be protected and kept safe through this

[@jasonnabors1330]

Not to be cliche or corny but he’s the first man I’ve ever looked up to besides Jesus and cartoon characters when it comes to how to be a man the fact that he fights depression and anxiety makes me feel more of a connection to this man I pray he is rewarded for the knowledge he’s giving us

[@cmcas]

The mental strain this man has had to go through would probably kill normal people. A mind like his, to be able to withstand the barrage of the world and all it's madness, and answer with such dexterity of words is a thing te be admired.

[@bonesjones988]

There is no antidote. Life is to suffer. Its finding the meaning in that suffering that will bring you peace of mind.

[@gamezswinger]

Brilliant quotes by professor Dr. Peterson. Integrity with reality is essential for the survival of man…

[@GroundControlToMajorTom]

This video helped me more than he may ever know! Thank you Jordan!

[@aktuber101]

The paragraph at the end, is it an excerpt from one of Peterson's books? If so what's the book?

[@ogsilverback971]

Essential Truth, I really enjoy your content and have subscribed to your channel. I was wondering if you could share with me some pointers on how you get KZbin to leave your videos up and not take them down like they did to my "Is Fear the Reality of the Modern Day Woman"???? WTF!?!?! It now is really time for me to launch my own website, and I am going to start with a Facebook page :(

[@isaacdunham2790]

24 of the videos on this channel feature "women" in the title. Another 10 videos feature the word "relationship." An observation.

[@wdobni]

being chronically depressed leads to a certain kind of worldview about the nature of existence. Everybody suffers. But people suffer differently and to different degrees. My mother used to say its better to be rich and miserable than poor and miserable. I might add its better to be free and miserable than to live under communism and be miserable.Dr. Peterson is very familiar with alcoholics anonymous...he might benefit from living the AA program in his own life rather than putting his trust in klonopin or xanax.

whats with the robot voice ?

@@essentialtruth2784 you could hire a Fiverr voice actor reader . they'd do a wwwaaaay better job than a robot.

@@jayr4720 Thanks. I appreciate the suggestion. I'm really trying to make quality videos and if a real voice does the job, I'm all for it.

[@Ikr2025]

An advantage of the robot voice is it sounds extremely neutral so takes any emotional bias out of the words, which leaves it more up to the reader to decide how they feel at the end of it.

how can this channel be about essential truths if all the videos are Jordan Peterson lecturing? I'm really sorry to everyone who is a fan, bit he's ignorant, incoherent, and just usually wrong. I mean, he doesn't even fact check simple stuff. don't confuse confidence and what you want to hear with the truth.

[@mikewonnacott1546]

Sad that a channel called "Essential Truth" is just dedicated to regurgitating Peterson talking points.
