The one who wrote this song named Han, and back then he wasn't able to participate to their schedule due to his anxiety. Han is an introverted person and rather keep things to himself, but he's imaged is very different when his comfortable. Us fans known him as the loud, talkative, and the jokester of the group. I recommend you to listen to the song called "SLUMP" -(The First Take) which he goes back writing songs again after his short hiatus. He explained being stuck and all the things he loves to do like producing/writing music doesn't make him happy anymore and don't have any motivation to do so. Check out more of their songs! like "Streetlight" by changbin which talks more about depression and mental health, "Alien" also by Han. Again, they wrote their own songs. Thanks for your genuine reaction to them

[@Psynergic]

han isnt the only introvert btw! hyunjin's an infp and jeongin has recently shared his latest test was isfj :]

Hyunjin is definitely an introvert as well. I think that’s why him and Han are so close. He doesn’t have unreasonable expectations of Han

[@jinirxet]

everyone in stray kids has an incredible way with words and lyrics, but han (the lyricist for this, the first singer) has some of the most incredible and easily accessible ways of describing feelings, good or bad. i really recommend checking out some of his solo works (skz-players, skz-records) Close, Alien and HaPpY. you may also want to check out I Got It by him for his rapping abilities:)

[@benndarayta9156]

[@glz9482]

Stray Kids have always made it a point to make songs that address mental health issues and any sort of life struggles by writing about them. A LOT of their earlier music touches on topics such as growing pains, fears about adulthood, struggling with climbing in the music industry, struggling with confidence, etc. I’m really glad you’re admiring their lyricism, because it’s always been a strong point for them as far as musicality goes. Some songs you may want to check out that touch on sensitive topics are: Hellevator - a predebut song, talks about how much they struggled mentally and physically to prepare themselves to become idols and how every day felt like a battle they’d never escape Grow Up (!!!) - made for STAY, a song that expresses that even though it may be hard, you’re doing a good job just doing your best, and that one day you’ll be able to look back with a smile My Pace - about learning that doing things at your own speed is better than trying to match the pace of those around you, live your life the way you’re meant to Voices - a song about how our inner voices make it hard to stop judging ourselves and trying to break free from the harsh standards we hold ourselves to Scars (!!!) - their most recent release, a song that talks about how the hardships and pain they endured on the path to fame will always be a part of them and that they’re proud of their “scars” Streetlight (Changbin) (!!!) - Changbin wrote the lyrics this song himself to express feelings of loneliness when it comes to struggling with mental health. He also included a small shout out to the Blue Tree Foundation, a mental health organization in South Korea Thank you SO MUCH for appreciating Stray Kids for the artists that they are. I can’t wait to see more from your journey with them in the future!!

[@Psynergic]

Thanks for taking the time to write all of this out! I can't wait to see more from them! 💙

It would be great if u also reacted to their songs “silent cry”, “another day”, “streetlight” by changbin, “alien” by han!

also i hate to admit by bang chan

[@yk_zyk]

most of their songs are about mental health

[@Almerbunspojul]

I second this

[@harliyana]

This song is composed and written mainly by Han Jisung (one of 3RACHA, a Stray Kids member), the blonde guy that opens the song. He has quite bad anxiety (he was not active in the group for a while for his anxiety) and he has written many songs related to himself. His anxiety, his sense of alienation from others etc. He is also a very introverted and shy person, he can be very quiet when he is with people he was not familiar with. Han Jisung is homeschooled for a while and completed his GED young. He songs are very personal. You can try Han - Alien, SKZ - Sunshine, SKZ - Another Day, tbh all the songs he composed and wrote tbh. They are all relatable, the reason why I love his songs so much. Another one that hits deep is Changbin - Streetlight. It is a very sad song. I love their deep meaningful songs. I would recommend 3rd Eye too. Others mental health related by SKZ (Stray Kids) - Voices, Side Effects, Insomnia.

[@Psynergic]

I'm definitely taking note of all of these songs to watch in the future. Thank you for taking the time to suggest them! 💙💙

Stray Kids is a group that love to write about real world problems. One of their earlier songs "My Pace" was written about going life at your own pace and dont compare yourself to others. It's a more upbeat song and, in my opinion, aimed towards the younger generation. You should totally check it out.

I'm an adult with inattentive ADHD and there's so many milestones I haven't reached yet cuz I gotta fight my own brain all the time...and when I first heard that song I wanted to cry and dance at the same time! I'd NEVER heard a message like that in a song before, and it was one I needed to hear so badly. ❤ I feel like the "stray kid" in all of us never goes away...no matter how old we get, we all need reassurance that we're enough as we are. I found Stray Kids exactly when I needed them most and I'm so glad I did. :)

Stray Kids makes their own songs and wrote their own lyrics(especially by Bang Chan,Changbin and Han,the composer and lyricist of the Stray Kids also know as 3racha)..they wanted the fans/listeners to be able to interpretate and connected the songs with our daily lives.. and this song is written by Han(the first members that start the song) I suggest you listen to Voices,Scars,Alien(Han solo and written by himself),Slump(also wrote by Han) and there's so much more.. mainly they wrote things that's relatable..

[@min9726]

I was waiting for the video! The songwriter of this song was Han (the first member who appeared singing), SKZ in general has many songs about mental health and are all self written, some of my favorites are: - Red Lights (it's about obsession over work, even the MV was made to give the anxiety and obsession felling) - Voices - Alien (Han's solo) - Streetlight (Changbin's solo)

Also, Silent Cry as the follow up to Secret, Secret!! They've said that if you relate to Secret, Secret, then they wrote Silent Cry in response. First time watching your channel, I hope you do more Stray Kids because they sing such relatable lyrics and are SO unique.

A song I definitely suggest from them is “sorry, I love you” from the same album as secret secret, it’s about the regret of loving someone who’s your friend and being unsure of the outcome of confessing to them, I think the emotions are displayed very well throughout and it’s just a beautiful song.

@@Psynergic another thing I should mention is that in all of stray kids songs about relationships and love there are never any gender specific lyrics which I think is really sweet!

[@hosiana9b]

yes you has all my point to tell him, i cant say this properly

[@RM_formerlyjustRMbutYTsucks]

This is a Han Song. The very first singer is Han. You paused on him singing, "I'm getting more and more exhausted," and very correctly pointed out that whomever wrote these words has _clearly_ gone through this. As one of the three producers and one of the two main lyricists, Han writes most of their songs in conjunction with Changbin and Chan. But when we get a Han Song, it's like this. Others would be stuff like SLUMP, Another Day, 19, Alien (one of his solo releases), Sunshine, I See (as J.One, part of the 3RACHA predebut rap subunit). Han wrote Secret Secret during one of his dark periods when he was having a hard time and literally went off in semi-seclusion for several days to ruminate and write. I mentioned in the last vid that Han has depression cycles; he's mentioned how that can factor into his art. As for masks, Han is one _the_ most likely members to mask. He's the acknowledged comedian and moodmaker of the group, and he's genuinely hilarious. But you're probably more conscious than most of how often the Funny One feels things most deeply, overthinks, is in pain. Humor can be an excellent mask and distraction. There's a few times we've even managed to see him accidentally caught doing it, when he'll be visibly down in the background of a video, but the moment he realizes the camera is there, he flips the On switch and turns into Robin Williams (and yeah, I mean that comparison specifically for the mental-health connotation). He's an introvert with anxiety and recurrent depressive episodes who's in one of the most visible, hypercontrolled, judgmental, toxic industries on the planet. Even some of the members worry about him specifically, even when he's in an ok period. One of the members is his Person and subtly (kinda) acts as his safety blanket/touchstone in a lot of situations without making an obvious production out of it. I don't stan groups or people. I'm a grown-ass adult who didn't do that even when I was a kid, and I have little interest in or energy for spending my limited mental resources on strangers, let alone celebrities. I went looking for exactly ONE kpop group to listen to and researched who would be the safest, most welcoming group for a queer person whose mental health was in meltdown (because I've been through this sh1t before and know when my brain needs a focus to keep going). What I found with SKZ was a group of artists willing to be unpopular (and oh, they SO are, among a disproportionately large number of people) if it means they can make the music that represents them and helps them relate with others and gives both them and listeners support to keep going. And all this relating between them and us? It works. Not just them giving Stay support, but Stay trying to return it. At this very moment, Chan (the leader, the one with orange hair in this vid) is having an increasingly tough time with his mental health (remember: they're open about it; he's been talking about it directly to Stay on bubble), and Stay are getting even more worried about him than usual. So the entire fandom is mobilizing to do what they can and send him a mass slam of love and support in a coordinated hit in a few days. It won't "fix" anything, but that's not the point. Sometimes what can help you push through to the next day is the reminder that you're not alone or unappreciated, that your mind can be lying to you, that your worth is intrinsic. Chan (and others in SKZ, or the group as a whole) have literally saved some people's lives, whether with their music or with the connections they make with fans or, in Chan's case, with going live every single week just to give people a safe place for a couple hours. And people want to return that support, as human beings seeing a fellow person struggling, especially when that struggling person is the reason some people are even still around.

[@mugglepuff]

I don't normally read long comments like this because I have the attention span of a shoe. But this was so well written and so true. When I think of people who are extroverts on the outside and funny and moodmakers like you said, I think of Robin Williams and plenty of other people who have this type of personality, including me. I had a friend in high school who was like this and he ended up khs because of his internal depression and anxiety and hiding it. Just like Shawn says, therapy is worth it, but I should take my own advice and find someone to talk to who is not biased or there to judge. Anyway, I hope you're having a good day and thank you again for writing this.

[@RM_formerlyjustRMbutYTsucks]

@@mugglepuff Thank you _so_ much. Hugs from a random internet stranger to you.

[@mazzy305]

They have so many amazing songs that involve mental health. Even their pre debut song ‘Hellevator’ is about depression and going through a kind of hell during training to reach the top and debut. Chan’s wrote the song ‘Insomnia’ because he has insomnia, ‘voices’ is about people filling your head with negative voices, ‘Mirror’ is about figuring out who you are when you don’t know whilst others keep trying to tell you who you are. There are so so many great songs that have deeper meanings when you look into the lyrics. They also have lighter positive mental health messages in their songs, such as ‘My Pace’ which reassures people that even if others look like they are getting everything they want and getting it really quickly, it’s ok to go at your own pace to follow your dreams. If you decide to keep going into Stay Kids discography (I hope you do) you will have a large catalogue of really interesting songs to choose from.

[@alexandria3852]

I love that the STAY Fandom listed the songs that they did... I feel that shows how much the fans understand them. Probably because most of us can relate. I know I can. I have a severe anxiety disorder, heck, I actually fell down the Stray Kids rabbit hole because of Han and his story. I feel like almost anyone who listens to this song, and many of their other tracks, will likely find them relatable in some way. I will however say that I do worry about our "always far too strong for their fans as well as their own good" young men. I know they still struggle with a lot. From sleep problems to borderline agoraphobia. I get it, 100%... but I know I would rather they took care of themselves first and foremost and maybe even find a little more of their inner happy, than to ever receive another song like this from them.

[@Notanymore343]

This was so very spot on. Thank you. One thing I love about SKZ is their availability, they are not afraid to say they are struggling. They don’t put up fronts. They also never use gendered terms in their songs and are definitely LGBTQ supporting. Chan and Hyunjin (orange and long black hair) along with Han have been very open recently about their struggles. Hyunjin just went through something fairly difficult and he came back with a vengeance, but he was also clear and open about how much he was mentally affected by it.

[@jhoanacastrostay1556]

The main reason I started satningg SKZ was because of their deep lyrics.I met them when I was in the worst moment of my life. They have the ability to connect with us. They make their music so relatable. They speak of their own experiences and thoughts through their music. It feels so sincere. Thank you for this reaction. Please keep reactin to more conten of them. I recommend to you my favorites touching SKZ songs: Silent Cry, Streetlight, Slump, Alien, Voices, Grow up, Awaken, Mirror, and Eunseoki Some of those songs have MVs, some don't.

Their lyrics really took me out of my own black hole and made me feel understood, no other single group or artists made me feel secure and welcomed, like a family, not even in my native language. You should react to their other songs, specially their solo stuff. Thank you so much for hearing my children ❤

[@thatstay3916]

Stray kids have always had mental health at the forefront of not only their music but also how they interact with fans. They try to be pretty open with us to show that we aren’t alone and it’s okay to talk about it. The group’s leader, Bangchan, does weekly lives called Channies room where he gives music recommendations but also listens to fans and gives advice and/or comfort where he can. He has insomnia so he often does them pretty late at night so that others that are up late don’t feel so alone. And with him being Australian he does it in a mix of English and korean so the whole fandom can interact live with out having to wait for translations. They’ve really created a wonderful safe space.

[@secondsofsummer]

The member himself (Han) wrote this song few years ago. Sadly yes he’s been through anxiety, exactly during the time he wrote this song. As a fan i remember that time he was being absent but force himself to join a fansign event, the leader ask fans to understand if Han suddenly want to go back. Han at that time bravely saw fans again, his members keep checking on him whether he’s okay or not. Once the fansign ended, all the managers and staffs behind the stage come to him and make an applause for him smiling so proud at him. Thankfully his environment was really healthy and supportive to him 🥺

For me their song 'Silent Cry' is my comfort song to hear when everything fall apart. The lyrics is really comfortable and help me to release all of the burden inside me that I kept for a long time. I hope you will react to that song too even though theres no music video for that song.. you can watch the 'Color coded lyrics Silent Cry' video. Thank You for reacting by the way! ❤️

[@saphireanabeth6678]

It hurts a lot deeper seeing the format of the video- it’s like they’re calling you personally and it feels so comforting

[@majocarballo]

Stray Kids write and produce their own music. That makes it easier for them to talk about topics on a more personal level, and make songs to not only comfort themselves but other people too. Here are some titles that talk about those topics that maybe you would like to react to: Streetlight by Changbin: it's a solo song where he sings about the feeling of sadness and loneliness when you let everyone rely on you but you have noone to comfort you. Insomnia: as the title says, it talks about insomnia, the leader struggles with that so he made a song for people who has it too don't feel alone and can relate to it. Side Effects: the side effects of growing up and changing as much as the things around you do. Levanter: the sense of freedom when you let go something you thought you needed but only was pulling you backwards. Voices - it's a song about how the voices around you try to put you down and the attemp to fight them M.I.A: they talk to themselves and try to find out why they've changed too much to the point they don't recognize who they are now Slump: the feeling of depression and that you are being left behind Another day: Han Jisung has his way to make into lyrics everyday depressing thoughts without making them sound too depressing. Silent cry: it's them telling us to not hide our feelings, to cry when we need to instead of just bearing with everything alone. Alien by Jisung: where he uses the metaphor of an alien for being alone and the feeling that you don't belong where you are.

[@IssyVoca]

Great reaction and analysis. I’m a veteran when it comes to dealing with recurring depression and finally managed to figure out it‘s caused by gender dysphoria. I found Stray Kids last year and their music and lyrics have been an essential part of me getting better. I can relate to way too many of their songs. Especially Levanter hits very close to home.

as i’m watching your reaction, i keep thinking of the songs that mean a lot to me. most of them were part of that feeding cycle you mentioned but some are uplifting. - ‘over’ by epik high (tablo solo) “you are an overachiever, do what it takes til it takes everything you are” - ‘breathe’ by lee hi that song was just beautiful. unfortunately, the one who wrote it, jonghyun, passed away. - ‘let me out’ by jonghyun after he passed away i couldn’t help but think that song was an obvious cry for help. “someone please hold me, I’m exhausted from this world/someone please notice my struggles first/please help me” - ‘i need somebody’ by day6 fun fact: day6 is a band (like a real band that plays their own instruments). i think the title of the song speaks for itself - ‘end of a day’ by jonghyun “you did a good job. you worked so hard.” just a healing song to listen to and let go of all your burdens. - ‘zombie’ by day6 there’s a korean and an english version for this and i think both are worth checking out. “i feel like i became a zombie/with an empty head and an empty heart/a scarecrow without a brain inside/since when have i ended up like this?” came out around the time of the pandemic and this was so what we needed -‘help’ by 10cm “is everyone the same as me but holding it in? or am i the only bad person?” i just love this one so much -‘try again’ by jaehyun and d.ear “we’ll be alright. please try again” i’ll stop here because i’ve listed quite a lot. if anyone else has any songs to add, post them here for people who need it :)

[@ValentinaAlmuna]

I'm 21 and Stray Kids is one of my favorite groups because since the beginning (2018) I related to the stories they told in their songs. Their songs talk about mental health, youth, the end of adolescence, etc. (something that sometimes sounds scary).Their first albums I AM NOT, I AM WHO and I AM YOU, talk about finding themselves, first, they realize that they're not what they thought they were and what the society expected them to be (I am not), then they try to find out who are they (I am who) and at the end, they realize that they're just themselves, and at the same time they're us (I am you) and that's okay. I hope you keep reacting to their songs and give your opinion about it. ^^

[@polensuniverse]

Han wrote this piece (the first one who sang in the video). I absolutely love his works including "Alien" a solo he sang, released in a playlist called SKZ Player. He also wrote "Sunshine" from the album Clé: Levanter and "Another Day" from GO Live which were also about exhaustion. He was I think diagnosed with anxiety disorder last year and has to take a break from group activities, so maybe it's one of his inspiration for his songs. Anyway, this is my favorite song from NOEASY album cause it's just deep. I'm also a nonbinary so I get it, the feeling of being misunderstood by everyone. Thanks for reacting to SKZ's music ❤️ you made my day

[@brirebaza9458]

I really like this type of videos! You should react to Stray kids Kingdom's performance(in a reality show) , especially : "side effects x God's menú" , and "i'll be your man". I need the analysis of a professional. There are a lot of details with a deep meaning.

my first listen to Secret Secret i had tears in my eyes... really. i cannot even explain it but just listening to a stray kids track just hits different.. like, i think it connects more to a lot of people cos they were the ones who made it base from their own experience, theyre not afraid to show us their vulnerable side apart from their songs that are def bangers.. their discography is just pure, raw emotions that is so relatable? listening to a stray kids track greatly affects my mood.. i dont know they just have this effect on me. im just so proud of this group, they have a way with words and the track itself just carries so much you can probably tell what theyre singing even if you dont read the trans just basing it on the melody... i recommend you to listen to 'Scars', 'Slump', Voices, 'Wish You Back (HAN), Streetlight (CHANGBIN), Hate to Admit (BANG CHAN), and all of their MIXTAPEs, plus my biggest pick-me-up song 'Grow Up' if you have the time.. thank you 💛

[@kindhani8134]

loved your reaction ^^ it's really interesting to see how a mental health specialist reads lyrics that are about mental health that's I think I'd like to recommend some skz songs about different mental health topics: *side effects, hellavator, silent cry, alien, slump and scars

[@Psynergic]

I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I'll definitely make sure that these songs are on my list of ones to react to. Thank you for suggesting them!

[@phoe1641]

Thank you for reacting to Stray Kids, I love your content so much! I wanna recommend Silent Cry, this song is my most favourite skz's song, the lyrics are super good :')

[@Psynergic]

Check back in a few hours 😉🤫

[@phoe1641]

@@Psynergic OMG so excited!! Sure, I had turn on the notification😌

[@hannahmckenna61]

I loved this so much, skz music really means a lot to so many stays with the topics they cover in their songs. Silent cry is another one which has deep lyrical meaning. Silent cry is actually a reply to secret secret :) thank you for the reaction

[@briannalee7790]

I LOVED THIS REACTION! Please do more Stray Kids reactions! This song was written by Han who is the first guy who sang, you said he had pretty eyes. He is known as an ace of the 4th generation of kpop because he can do just about anything. A couple more songs by him are Slump, Alien, 19, and Gone Away which is a unit song with two other members of the group. More songs that would be good to react to are Streetlight (a solo song by Changbin of skz), Don’t Want to Admit (solo song by Chan of skz), Silent Cry, Hellavator, Chronosaurus, Voices, and MIA.

[@Psynergic]

Thank you so much! I'm so happy that you loved the video 🙂💙 Thanks for the suggestions too!!

[@elixcute9762]

Straykids self composing group, so their songs are more meaningful. They created so many motivational songs for comforting lots of people. And lots of Stays and non Stays can find something that can help in our life❤️ So I am so happy to discovering them

[@kady4178]

I usually watch your videos because they're fun and entertaining, but this time it is very different I really do appreciate you taking the time and actually pay attention to everything and give your point of view. Can't wait for more Mental Health Professional reacts

[@Psynergic]

Thank you very much, Khadijah! 💙 I've started doing more Psych in my BL reactions but music rarely gives me a chance to - I'm so happy that I found this video and SKZ!

[@stayerenchan2583]

I love to hear your insight on my favourite comfort songs. What I love about stray kids lyrics are because it speaks to you and comfort you. I used to have breakdown episodes. Whenever I was pushed against the wall, I broke down in a very unhealthy way and it almost got to a self harm episode. Suddenly Skz song came up, and it became my dose of self healing pill whenever I need. You should react to Streetlight by Changbin. Voices, silent cry, insomnia, phobia and a special red light by hyunjin and bang chan. Its definitely interesting to see how a mental health professionals interpret the meaning of the songs. I love to see more of your reactions. Your channel is definitely a gem

[@Psynergic]

I'm sorry you ever experienced that, thank you for sharing. 💙 I"m so grateful that this song could be that motivation for you. Thank you so very much! It warms my heart to hear you say that! 💙💙 I can't wait to check out more videos from SKZ soon!

[@rest81]

Anyone already suggested "miroh"? This song is a booster to get you keep going!

[@cherstylinson6362]

Secret secret is my favorite song, thanks for your reaction❤

[@mashiyatbashir3827]

Stray kids songs: 1. Sorry i love you 2. Silent cry 3. Scars 4. Hellevator

[@ayaukianne9795]

Han wrote this song ( the first guy that sang)we know that he has anxiety and he had depression a time ago so..this song is so perfect about this! You can see another day, he wrote too

[@lovirchaskz]

I would love you to react to more Stray Kids, many of their songs talk about mental health and how they struggle with it, especially ''Side Effects'' is one of the most explicit in this sense because in the lyrics they describe the symptoms of a panic attack i would love to know your reaction to the letter. And how they write and produce their own music, it makes everything more personal

[@Psynergic]

I will be sure to bump this one up on my list! Thank you for suggesting! 🙂

[@spideylexi]

i’m so glad this song really affected you, i’m sure Han would be very happy and proud that his feelings touched you.

[@claude9342]

the fact that they write their lyrics really make it so special, for this song Han (the cute guy who started the song) wrote this beautiful masterpiece, this makes makes me teary-eyed every time 🤍 you gotta check Stray kids First Take videos for more pure vocal performance!! 🙌🏽

[@janmarielducot9781]

Hi! I appreciate this video so so much especially as a Psychology student and a STAY (Stray Kids' fan name) myself. What I like about them is absolutely THIS side of them. Their lyrics are always close to home. In fact, even if one doesn't relate to it on a personal level, the awareness that "oh, this happens" just says a lot. I love how their songs are not that complicated to take it because the emotion they are trying to deliver is very well-delivered and sung. Secret Secret is personally my favorite on this album too, along with Silent Cry (which Stays believe to be the answer to Secret Secret, you'll understand why when you listen/watch it). Personally, I'm not sure if someone already recommended it, I would also suggest reacting to or watching it on your own time, the song Streetlight. The song is a solo song by Changbin, also a member of Stray Kids/3racha, he also wrote the lyrics for it. Ps. The feeling I had when you were talking about THE ONE who wrote the song and THAT PERSON was actually flashed on the screen is really unexplainable hshs Again, thanks for a great video! It felt like I was taking my lecture in Abnormal Psychology while watching~ Let's continue spreading mental health awareness and educate/ help people about it. ❤️

[@Psynergic]

Thank you so much, Jan! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! I'm hoping to do more with SKZ soon - hopefully I'll be able to talk more about MH too! Good luck with your studies! 💙💙

[@akankshagarikapati6902]

i cry everytime i listen to this song... just thinking about Han feeling these feelings and writing these lyrics...it breaks my heart but it also gives me so much comfort. thank you for this reaction! enjoyed the video and i look forward to more stray kids hehe

[@larabaar5211]

Had to watch this in 2 takes because I cried too hard during the explanation. I can totally relate with the lyrics and knowing Han wrote this because he knows how it feels breaks my heart even more.

[@everyjayy]

I’m feel so grateful when he shared his depression to us though out them music. Love them

[@reikot77]

Stray Kids are REAL. All of their songs are written by themselves, and there is no lie in Stray Kids music. Happy to see your honest reaction, and breaking down the lyrics. By the time you probably know that this song is written by Han, and he’s been through anxiety, and his songs are emotional. I will recommend to watch ‘Scars’ (The First Take ver.). It’s their latest released song.

[@bloomsinsnow_]

Hi! I strongly recommend you to react and analyze "The View" and "Scars" by Stray Kids as a psychology student and Stay. I'm sure you will like the intensity of lyrics and deepness of the meanings.

[@Psynergic]

Thanks for the recommendation, Ecehan! I will add these to my list! 🙂💙

[@SF-no8fu]

i love that you talk about their lyrics cause their song is so good. they really talk about mental health seriously. most of their song actually talk about mental health. cant wait for you to react another song with mental health concept. cause many other youtuber more focus on their performance so i seriously love when you talk about mental health lyrics in their song

[@rmvillamor3195]

The first song from skz or skz member that made me cry is streetlight. I am really really thankful to that song.

[@TiaTruly]

Thank you for doing such a deep dive into this song! It meant a lot to me. I became a Stay specifically for their deeply relatable & non-gendered lyrics (and of course bc they've never made a bad song). Everyone's given you great recommendations of emotionally heavy songs, so I'm definitely here for more Doctor Psynergic Therapy Reactions! 🌈

[@Psynergic]

Thank you Tia! I can't wait to see more of their videos! I'm very excited 😁💙

[@chriselledulz7933]

You're Crying!!😩😭😭😭 This Song Hits Different..

[@kittyChesshire]

Istg Han always writes the most sad and relatable songs :'V

[@ekania17]

when i was studying psychology i found skz song - side effect and what intrigued me because they made psychological disorders as lyrics

[@notme3252]

I go through bouts of what I call “functional depression.” It’s where I fake being okay, and I am to other people, but at home I’m in bed all day, only getting the bare minimum done to get by in my professional life. I’m not depressed about anything in general, I just am. Medicine helps, but sometimes it has taken me months to years to get help. I’m cognizant of my condition now and am working to be more proactive before I get to the not taking a shower or getting out of bed level of depression. I also have general anxiety and ADD, so these things all go together. I love Stray Kids. Also, I’m here at 2:30 a.m. watching this. I’m up for the rest of the day. What you said about memories absolutely explains why I have such poor memory. Nobody ever explained that to me. Thanks for that.

[@sintigomes945]

As a Stay and a future psychologist i love your reaction so much, thank you

[@rosivard]

I really loved this reaction, it feels really genuine, please react to more of them, and let's cry together again hahaha

[@aiena90]

FYI They compose,make and produce their own song, so whatever the lyrics , the meaning , are from their own experience. Straykids have many song about mental health and their song really meaningful and can relate to everyone at every age. I recommend voices, M.I.A, imsonia , slump and another day

[@jojo.joanna]

M.I.A. What a throwback! It's such an interesting song in terms of lyrics since it's about talking to one's past self after having changed so much

[@notkatie.y]

Stray Kids Changbin also has a song called "Streetlight" and it's soooo good as well! The lyrics are sad but still so beautiful, it'll be great if you can react to it :)

[@akirakilla_]

Yes pls! Stray Kids have alotttt of songs with meaningful lyrics. I could say...95% of their discography are full of meaningful lyrics. I thinking their songs are sooo relatable and healing to us. But also, some lyrics are a bit hard to understand since they use something else to describe certain situation. Skz usually write lyrics about stuff they've go through and that's what lead to great lyrics and how they sang it with full of emotions. So i would rlly appreciate more contents like this

[@Psynergic]

Stay tuned! 💙😁

[@itsTayReacts]

If you loved this one you will love silent cry as well! Great video can’t wait to see more

[@smileymaxident1630]

without going into my own credentials… everything you said - i totally can validate 💯 I hope Chan and the other guys get a chance to watch this reaction 💕

[@Psynergic]

Thank you so very much! 💙 Let's share the video every chance we get and MAYBE they will get to see it! 🤞🏼

[@mugglepuff]

"Don't just bottle it up, because it will come out eventually" I felt that in my soul

[@hannahwhisler6234]

my understanding of Han's explanation as to why/how he wrote this song is that he wanted to write a song to make people who are going through this kind of thing simply feel heard and less lonely but that's not really about fixing anything a song that's just there so that people can know that others have been through this and they're not alone

[@straykidzfansworldwide3322]

LISTEN TO SILENT CRY IT'S LIKE AN ANSWER TO THIS SONG

[@neariah_]

This is my first time watching your video and I love how you explain the lyrics. I would love to see your reaction to Zombie by DAY6 (please watch the MV and turn on the English subtitle) the lyrics goes : "we live a life Just running in circles all day and night though I try to change something I can’t seem to do anything And I’ve got nothing left here with me I feel like I became a zombie With an empty head and an empty heart A scarecrow without a brain inside Since when have I ended up like this?" There is an English lyric video as well and the lyrics are quite different too , much darker if i'm gonna be honest.

[@Psynergic]

I'm already loving the lyrics! Thanks for sharing! I hope to check it out soon! 💙

[@Mai-pb8jp]

Han ( first singer) wrote this song during the peak of his social anxiety. He had to withdraw from some activities in 2019/20 for his mental health. He has reassured fans he is doing better nowdays ❤️

[@raghad1602]

I cried when u cried 💔🫂 thank u for keeping your eyes on our Perfect boys🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂💙

[@sh4d0wgal90]

If you really want to relate to one of their songs as an LGBTQ+ individual like myself, You should react to Sorry, I Love You. The MV is also in the same style as this song was.

[@janerose2286]

You should definitely check out Silent Cry! It’s almost like a part one to this song on their newest album. There’s no m/v but you can find a lyric video

[@misaoshikhun2460]

If you like this, Changbin's Streetlight takes the cake. The lyrics is just so... lyrical and descriptive of a state of mind. It still haunts me even if it was released months ago.

[@creaaampaan6244]

I will be happy if you read my comment! The one that makes this song is called Han Jisung, he is one of stray kids member, he appeared and sang first in the mv! And he has anxiety too, maybe thats why the lyrics so relateable to many people!

[@Psynergic]

Thank you for commenting and all of the information! Welcome to the channel 🙂

[@aeji1706]

i love this song so much, the emotions, the lyrics are soooo relatable. i'm no expert and i'm not going to be biased here, but this song, specifically, was beautifully written, as well as how they sang it was really incredible. it felt like they interpreted what i feel, that i couldn't express or explain verbally, through a beautiful song. this is one of the reasons why i love skz: there is an impactful and meaningful connection between them and their fans/listeners, and I'm very grateful for that. the fact that they're writing what they sing is already something. i can say their songs are not just like other songs, it contains such meaningful and relatable lyrics, something from the heart. i feel like crying while you were explaining. i learned a lot, thank you so much :(( i also listen a lot to grow up (skz2020 version) and streetlight by changbin (skz-player). those songs give me comfort. so much.

[@nolongerhuman5543]

For the fact it's a song they like the most and the possibility of them been thru the same, the thing you were talking about, pains me. But even for me, someone who does not suffer from any mental health can relate to it ( 🌈 ). The other song that gets me is Streetlight by Changbin. You might want to react to vids where the bois trying to comfort stays. They're wholesome, relatable and deserve the world♡

[@elam944]

Amazing reaction thank you so much. Please react to "another day" . Its another emotional song written by han as well, it's my comfort song and the lyrics really hit home. I would really appreciate it!

[@Psynergic]

Thank you EM! 💙

[@tsukishirou]

hi i really love your take on this, and i’m definitely interested to see you react to silent cry, i personally feel like that song is kinda like a “response” to this song (secret secret)

[@Psynergic]

I can't wait to see more soon!

[@hugs272]

Han Jisung is the lyricist 😢 thanks for ur reaction and words… i feel you to the bottom. Thanks for loving our stray kids ❤️ -stay-

[@seungpil8399]

OMG i only found you now with this video but i'm definitely enjoying this !!! as everyone has said, stray kids is an amazing group that tackles a lot of these sensitive topics so they're a really great group for you to dive in into their lyrics further. but i would also like to suggest another group DAY6 . they're labelmates and seniors of stray kids and they're a BAND band. but they also self-write and self-compose their stuff and they have amazing lyrics as well ! specific songs i would like to suggest are ZOMBIE, AFRAID, ABOVE THE CLOUDS. loove this video as stray kids and day6 are my ultimate groups and i also love sb19 so i'm excited to check those vids out too :D

[@inactive1393]

i really appreciate you going in depth with the lyrics and everything, and i appreciate you for your work in the field of mental health as someone who has struggled with mental illness my entire life and been in therapy since i was a child. as other people have said, stray kids have always been pretty open about their mental health, especially in their music, so i think you'll really like them ❤️ on another note since you mentioned that you're gay, stray kids are very supportive of the lgbtq community! the whole reason i decided to stan them a few years ago was because they were hanging out at NYC pride haha. a lot of us stays are also in the lgbtq community and skz always make us feel safe and loved :') personally i think some of their lyrics can relate to lgbtq experiences as well

[@Psynergic]

Thank you so much, Miroh! 💙 Don't tell anyone else - but I'm actually looking at potentially doing a whole video on Stray Kids and their support of the LGBTQ+ community 😉🤫

[@kristinautami]

Beside incredibly versatile, Stray Kids music is soo honest and raw bcs they produce everything by themselves. That’s why i love them so much as an artist. I also feel deeply connected to Secret Secret esp. I ugly cried listening to this the first time. I enjoy your reaction. Please do more SKZ: 1. Streetlight- by Changbin 2. Alien - by Han 3. Scars

[@HoneyLust18]

Holy crap, the Stray Kids fans coming in with the views Sean!

[@Psynergic]

haha right? I was really not ready for it but I've been loving their support! 💙

[@yuzuskz]

stray kids has many songs like this,, one of my favourite one is called ‘another day’

[@Psynergic]

I can't wait to see that one!! 💙

[@akirakilla_]

Btw, if you love these type of songs, I'm pretty sure the comments already told you that it's written by Han which is one of the member of stray kids. The song he wrote are basically everyone's favourite. And if you wanna react to more of the song he wrote it himself, this is the list of the songs: Slump, Sunshine, Another day, 19, CALL, Close, Alien, Wish you back, Happy, I Got It I don't think I miss anything else. But there's an upcoming song called Winter Falls that is written by him which will come out on 29/11

[@mi_latibule1011]

i don't know what to feel honestly when i first heard this song. the melody was so calming and the lyrics are very relatable, it made me burst out crying whenever i hear it. When I need a good cry I turn this on together with the songs that is related to mental health. But everytime I remember that Han wrote the lyrics of this song, It hurts me more because he is such a precious one, and as a stay i know how talented he is as an individual and he does not deserve to undergo something that is too painful, then i will suddenly remember his social anxiety and my train of thoughts doesn't stp there. If a non stay watch their vids they will probably think han is a happy-go-lucky guy, and that i what my firt impression as well, as he clearly lift up the mood and his sense of humor is amazing. that made me think that even tho he carries that role in skz it doesn't mean that he is not having those worries and such, because everyone hase their own silent battles to fight and each of us has our own vulnerability. and that made me feel so proud because he is s strong. But the fact that i can relate to this and the whole reason why I am crying when i hear this song and their other song like Alien, Streetlight, Grow Up, Insomnia ang many more is because i am experiencing it as well makes it more painful than before.

[@Psynergic]

💙💙💙

[@nanai5263]

I loved your reaction, I found it very real. Thank you for reacting to Stray Kids and I hope you continue to do so 🥺🙏🏼💘

[@polyanagula]

thank you for your reaction! it is very interesting to listen to your opinion about the lyrics from a professional point of view. It hit me especially hard starting from 17:12, when you were saying "whoever wrote this clearly has gone through this" and further explaining about people with these health problems - and all this time you were having Han on the screen - the author of this song, author of these words. I almost cried... I looking forward to your further videos with Stray Kids, you have plenty of great suggestions in the comment section already :) I liked and subscribed! P.S. since your previous video about Stray Kids I am looking forward to see your reaction to our gorgeous men in "red lights" :)
