Maya Matlin - Degrassi Next Class | Hearing - Sleeping at Last | Scrap

[@EnloTheRover]

The way Grace just dipped when she was struggling is so relatable. No one ever realizes your drowning until its to late.

[@luistorres513]

I didn't get mad at Grace for doing it only because she didn't really know what Maya was dealing with. Plus, Grace was there for her in the beginning and Maya kept dipping on her so It's understandable why Grace did what she did. But I'm glad that she still cared for Maya in the end and knew something was wrong when she realized Maya was posting strange things and giving all her loved ones gifts

I understood her side because Grace was also very sick, and had recently found out that she needed new lungs or she was going to die soon, so she was facing her own mortality same as Maya, and I think their pain, while different, was what always made them so close because they both understood what it was like to be afraid and to hurt since they were young. And Grace was the first one to embrace her and treat her normally when she came back to school, because I think she knew that feeling too of everyone looking at you and treating you different

maya’s depression wasn’t surprising to me, and when she was talking about how the pictures made her feel something she wanted to keep feeling, it made me realize that the reason she wanted to keep feeling whatever it was that she was feeling was because being numb is so painful. and the fact that the photos were always of her, but as a corpse. it’s kinda terrifying the foreshadowing that was there. i mean, there were so many reasons maya attempted. she felt like she was only failing, and she was convinced that she was ruining other people’s lives. she said to her mom when Katie had come home “you didn’t have to ruin her life too” and that moment i’m pretty sure is when Maya started planning. i never realized that. and i think nobody really saw her depression coming, but it was kind of. with cam’s suicide at first she seemed to be rather calloused, but in fact she just penned everything up. and her freak out about Miles, that showed she was more deeply affected by cam’s suicide than anyone at the school may have thought. and plus, maya has been through so much shit. the suicide, katie’s overdosing, that whole thing about the threats, and just so much more shit happened. she came into highschool the as the cheery blonde who had her whole musician future planned out. she was literally JoJo in the Degrassi universe, cheery, childish and musically talented. and that made it hard to relate to her. cam’s suicide, and her reaction i honestly understood so deeply. i’m weirdly calloused around death, and when my pets die i don’t even get sad, so i related to that.

[@notwerkinginthishouse8634]

I agree what you said When Cam was feeling like shit, everyone was like 'everyone gets sad sometimes', like they told Maya too Both of them showed signs of depression and anxiety... I can relate to Maya so damn well I suffer from depression, anxiety, ocd, suicidal thoughts and I was imagining to do it like her 2 years ago and I didn't ... and I love music like her but idk This video made me feel everything, beautiful and sad at the same time Feeling numb, feeling like u can't breathe, like u can't be yourself Wanting to be around people so much sometimes, and alone at the same time, but I feel like it's not even possible

[@apexyl5135]

artistic persona I’ve never been diagnosed with anything, so I’m not gonna be that little bitch who says she has depression when I haven’t been diagnosed. But my mood can take a 180 in a matter of seconds. I’ll be happy as a clam, scrolling through TikTok, and a video of a bunch of kids at a highschool or college soccer game, all of the cheering on their team can instantly make me cry because it reminds me of what I don’t have. And it’s not like I have a shitty life either. I’m rather privileged, I have game and a phone and all that crap. I’m smart and athletic, and my parents arent poor. Half my family works at Walmart so we’re all pretty set on cash. But those moments and I’ll just despise everything about my life. My sister also tells me I probably have mild ocd. I don’t agree. But I do have a thing where I only eat candies or foods in even numbers, and when it comes to skittles or that stuff, I eat them in even numbers and they have to be the same color. I only eat tic tacs in the groups of 2 or 4 I only take an even number of steps in each sidewalk... But it’s not an obsessive thing I don’t think Actually, my sister may have a point Still I don’t think I have ocd

@@apexyl5135 I went to therapist so xd happiness is not about that or depression, its all within, and i believe u know exactly why

[@monke3898]

I dont see how it was surprising to anyone

[@Meatwad0]

Her character I think was portraying PTSD and depression, feeling numb.

[@mooneymagic4521]

This was awesome, I never really liked Maya but in season 3&4 she became so relatable.

[@emilygoshorn4068]

I wish they'd bring back this show it helped me through a lot of mental issues and still does

[@kirstengidon662]

I use to haaaate Maya honestly, but in the next class I really started to like her character, I felt her pain. I struggled with depression when I was in hs, so I really relate!

[@flawedsanity]

This is one of my favorite songs EVER, and Maya's arc in season 3 was one of my favorites. Great edit. 🖤

[@gymnastmariya1189]

What song is this

[@charliet_t4417]

I’ve always loved maya but she really came through in season 3&4 next class

[@dylanopium1874]

It's kinda sad that Cam was probably the best friend Maya ever had. Now I wasn't the biggest Maya fan because at first I found her to be extremely whiny and rude at times for no reason, but honestly most of that blame goes to NC for how the kinda shifted alot of the characters personalities. As I rewatched her story, I found that while there were certain things she did that were pretty annoying like her whole feminist phase, she was a damn good friend to everyone and yet not alot of them were good friends to her. Starting off with Tristan, he was the FAKEST friend she ever had. Why is it that he always took Zoe's side when her and Maya were beefing but the minute Maya slips up he's ready to bite her head off, ESPECIALLY in the Yates storyline where it was revealed that the man was just a creep and he still punished her for what she did (Which was the right thing to do despite his over dramatic complex of never finding anyone who loves him) Then there was Zoe who LITERALLY cyberbullied her, and stabbed her in the back multiple times AND FUCKING GOT AWAY WITH IT! Then there was Miles who was just crazy. Now Maya isn't a Saint, but she was still a good friend to everyone else while her "Friends" except maybe Grace and Jonah treated her horribly.

[@adrianna1465]

I think at times Grace treated her like crap too. Especially with the whole Zig cheating on Maya storyline. To me, Grace wasn’t really a good friend to Maya during this time. Telling her she should get over Zig cheating on her so they could all hang out, and Grace getting mad at Maya for Zig still having feelings for her

[@cheshirerose2001]

What about Tori? I know she wasn’t in next class but would you say she was a bad friend to Maya?

[@molly_parker_1847]

It was really cool how in the video when you showed the clip where she tried to kill herself then showed a bunch of clips that showed her getting her life back and actually feeling good with her friends after when she tried to kill herself. It’s like saying “your life will get better. You just have to be willing to make it just a little bit longer until it does.” Like when Maya got her life back and was able to graduate with her friends. And then at the end you showed her coming up for air like in a metaphorical term. Or maybe I’m just reading to much into it lol

[@plutodestroyedme]

i noticed that too! i think it was really nice how they did that

[@savannahmarie570]

She reminds me of myself so much… I have fought depression and anxiety almost all my life and I am 26 now.. I’ve tried to commit suicide 6 times total in my life.. I make music, play the piano and sing to express myself. Someone I was engaged to died from an overdose last year (relates to cam taking his own life)… the anger towards friends and family. People leaving me and me feeling hopeless and alone.. getting bullied in highschool school and online.. the pills and ending up in the hospital. trying to drown myself before, thinking of walking into on coming traffic…. It’s literally INSANE how relatable her character has always been to myself.. not to mention the glasses and blonde hair. I swear she was made for me to see that it’s possible to be okay someday.. if I just keep fighting.

[@foursidedamico3101]

I knew something was off about Maya before it announced she was depressed. I could tell something was going on, I’m just glad that she got the help that she needed and is surrounded by her loved ones.
