Low

This is a poem that I wrote on the 13th of January 2017. The whole thing came out in about 20 minutes.
I am not in the same headspace as I was when I wrote this, but the words are still very important to me. So I thought I would share them.
To the few who are still with me, thank you.

This made me cry because my dad has suffered with mental heath for a year he has been having tablets everyday I wish that People understand what it is like. Mental heath is one thing but anxiety and depression are another, you are right mental heath is a thing in life that needs to be heard and spoke about more and treated God bless people with mental heath issues

Wow... words fail me. I'm on a bus and thank fuck I'm in the very back row. No one noticed me cry. I've been dealing with anxiety and depression since before you were born, but even one day in that "low" place can feel like a lifetime. I've tried denying it, hiding it (gotten quite good at that), drugging the living fuck out of it, but it's always there with me. I'm certainly better now than in past, and I sincerely hope you're in a better place. Words are powerful; thank you for sharing yours.

[@HanHiyaaa]

Wow! That was so powerful!! I felt every word and it connected so much!! Thank you for sharing ❤️

[@cocopenguin21]

Wow, thanks for talking about this. Really it takes a lot of courage to be vulnerable. I have my walls up 24/7 since that someone I had left. You're a bright light Kirstie, stay golden!

[@blackequus]

Beautiful, honest, and poetry that is without frills but full of raw truth. First came across your videos because of your accent (I'm American but do love the accents of Northern Europe) I quickly realized beyond the bright young lady is a very wise woman who has had to deal with so much so quickly so much so that your mental health videos have me thinking about going back to work on the walls around my Self. I wish you well. Continue to follow your loves and if writing isn't one of those loves you should remember that your quick poem of only twenty minutes came out as a force of nature that managed to make the walls of someone here in New York tremble.

Excellent

[@AnnaMRPS]

[@jordonfraser22]

This gave me goosebumps, it was beautiful and very real xx

[@erichbrough6097]

Just...wow -you stunned me with this, Kirstie. I was expecting a dose of pain and incomprehension, but what I got was like a battle cry for hope - honest, searingly articulate, and as braw as they come. I'm blown away by your warrior spirit, Kirstie. We're so blessed to have you as our ally, and we, too, will be yours! Yer awesome!

[@KirstieBryce]

I try not to think so much about putting emotions into anything I write by force because I think they come across that way and it's almost looking for a reaction. I prefer to not think about it while writing, and with this one I didn't think at all. I'm so glad you liked it! all love

[@saffy4992]

Beautiful ❤

[@erinhastie7473]

The made me cry. But it was so amazing that you had the courage to speak out and open up to the people of the world. I am so proud of you Kirstie and i want you to know, that you inspire me each and everyday to be the best i can be, so thank you for all that you do Kirstie Bryce. Love you xxx

[@hughwark5291]

That just broke my heart but also gave me hope that I too can find my way out of where I find myself, thank you Kirstie.

[@laxusdreyarofficial]

That hit the feels real hard

[@ObiJohn]

Wow, and right there - we are all the same, we feel the same - all the world over.

[@KirstieBryce]

Thanks for watching! I'm guessing this means you liked the video? I'm sorry, I just wasn't sure what it meant. 🙈

[@AnthonyVolpe]

Thank you for making this. I’m an anxiety sufferer and I’ve been considering starting a channel to help others. You’ve cemented my decision to do so. Great poem, great video. 😀

[@KirstieBryce]

Thank you for watching :) That sounds like a wonderful Idea.

[@EmilieLeslie]

[@johnmccaughey6795]

You have talent for poetry, this is probably the best video you have made.

[@FreakShowKirby]

Thank you

[@BarryEuphorik]

From someone who has been there, I know that this would have been hard to do.

[@missarnold5693]

Wow, amazing ♡♡♡

[@kylemcclellan9686]

[@jordandunlop540]

You made me cry so much gal , you inspire me!!! 😍😍😍

[@jerrylewis9057]

My heart just cried for you.

[@ErinsHoose]

👏👏👏 well done you!!!

[@nicolahenderson4669]

Love watching your videos Kirstie! This one really hit me though. Well done you for speaking out 👏🏼 I’m a teacher in a school not to far away from where you live. We’re about to start really focusing on mental health and I would love love to let them see this or read it out at a workshop in the near future. Would you be okay with that as I wouldn’t like to do it without your permission? x

[@KirstieBryce]

Thank you so much, I'm so glad! Sorry it has taken me so long to get around to responding to comments. I would be more than happy for the video to be used of viewed in the future though. If it can help just one person that means the world x

[@wellthatspretty]

I sent you a fb mail btw hope you don't mind
