Larry, I don't exactly know how I came across you on the internet all those years ago but I am someone who has thought about you throughout the years and kept coming back to see what you were up to. I remember back then, you really were crying for help. You seemed pretty lost at the time and even then you found a way to amuse the internet. And then you kind of went MIA for a bit, I remember trying to look you up many times with no success and then a couple years later I saw you had gotten into CS and moved into the apartment with a big smile on your face, I don't know man... things like that are truly inspiring to see. It is one thing to beat depression, its another to completely turn your life around in the process and do more. I don't know why what happened to your brother happened, but please stay strong and keep moving forward. You are a special human being. People think about you and are intrigued by your way of thinking. I pray for your family and I wish you the absolute best

I understand what its like. My ex of 11yrs did the same in August as well. His family lied to people saying it was a homicide which to me was disgusting because the hid the fact that we all struggle and they lied to protect their image because they didn't want people to see that he needed help and they didn't see it or wasn't there for him. But we don't always have control, he was the love of my life I fell in love at first sight with him. He left MD to take a job in CA and he died a few years after being there. Fight through everyone, you have to learn to kick life in the balls when you see it coming for you. Get help to win that battle don't do it alone.

My heart breaks for you and your family. I'm sure this wasn't an easy video to share, but I'm so thankful that you did. This has literally been one of the worst years of my life. My mind has been taking me to some dark places and I often wonder what the point of anything is anymore. I can empathize with at least a small fraction of how your brother must have felt. On top of that, I feel like I've wasted so much time battling fear and anxiety, and as a result, not living in my purpose. This was my reminder today to keep going. Thank you for your vulnerability and authenticity. I'm always rooting for you and I know you will do great things 🩷✨

Been watching you since forever. I have watched your journey & how youve gone thru so much & I feel for you. But I feel like life’s ups and downs has given you wisdom and a perspective on living that many people lack. You strive for a truly fulfilling life whereas many others lie to themselves about what they want or what makes them happy, ultimately letting life make the decisions for them. Though you said you don’t want kids, I think you’d offer so so much as a parent and a mentor with your perspectives & you’d raise truly genuine people. Take it from me, I have gone thru alot as well( maybe too much haha) but watching your journey from pranks to vlogs to coding has oddly enough seemed something like a coming of age story. But you definitely have been one of the main figures who has inspired me to take the push to figure out what makes me happy. For one, I started thinking about programming (and even before that vlogging if i gotta be honest) after your videos and without them I may have not realized how much of an enjoyment I had in it. (Also after reflecting introspectively on my life I didn’t realize how much I actually wanted to do tech instead of health). And after being on and off for a couple years, now I’m working towards that. However from you I realized that I needed to figure out so many other things when finding true happiness, a job I like can only contribute to so much. So my goal is to do everything that will or can make me happy, or at least get as far as I can. I think the sole decision i made for myself is I dont have a choice not to anymore I have to do everything I want. Though I haven’t pursued everything as of yet (cause it’s alot 😂) I feel like I am at least able to visualize partially where I want to be in the future and try to do what I can to make it real and I havent been able to do that for a long time. I feel like that’s enough to keep me going for now

I've never watched any of your videos, but the KZbin algo brought me here. I just wanted to say that I can only imagine what that pain felt like. My brother attempted to take his own life a year and a half ago and the pain from that alone was unimaginable (in some ways I still can't believe it was real/happened). To your point, the finality of life was truly a wake-up call for all of us during those moments my brother laid in the hospital hanging on to life. One of the toughest things for me was grappling with the guilt.. and even now. Something that I promised myself was that the things I'd do in life going forward would be something that speaks to my soul. It took me a long time to get to that point, so I'm glad you were able to get there sooner. Despite how tough it was, thank you for sharing. My heart is with your family and I'm sending my strength your way. I hope that 2024 brings you a sense of guidance as you live out your life in the way your brother would hope you would.

From 2015-2023 I’ve lost 10 friends, family to suicide and I’ve had my last conversations with people in the army that lost their battle to suicide. To anyone out there grieving or fighting this battle. Please just start with therapy. It will not solve all the problems but it’s a great fucking place to start. I’m sorry this happened to you and to anyone else. The biggest take away I’ve learned from life and this specific topic is we just have to be better friends. But the flip to that coin is people are going to people. We can’t save everybody and that’s the saddest part about all of this
