I Just Lost Control of Myself | The Day I Snapped (Mental Health Documentary)

[@acooksla]

I can relate; when I was 18 I had a breakdown and never forget being at work and crying uncontrollably. I would cry all the time for a year and couldn’t handle anything. I felt overwhelmed and sad and was facing the “ meaning of life” and uselessness of it all, at 18! I got through it, (this was way before anyone talked about this kind of stuff. ) But years later I began therapy and stayed with it for 12 years. It turned my life around. I was in dire need of empathy and understanding for my childhood trauma and it was a miracle that I found the right person to help. Here I am 66 years old, and mentally fit.

I’m so happy for you and that things turned around for the better ❤

[@darlenechadwick375]

I know what it’s like to feel hopeless and helpless! I’ve been there in-numerous times! I’m praying for you & others like us to be healed & set free for good! The world needs our contributions! It can only happen if we’re here! You’re loved!🥰

[@noongourfain]

Those are wonderful kind thoughts. This show has to be 15-20 years old. The second man is Simon from the WAF Channel here on youTube.

[@darlenechadwick375]

@@noongourfain I’m aware that is an older video! The sad part is there are still many suffering souls! Still praying!

[@noongourfain]

@@darlenechadwick375 It's true. There aren't enough people to render the care that is needed out there. The people in this video were lucky they got the care they needed when they needed it.

Watching this as I am off work for 3 months related to stress. I can soooo understand all these people. It made me very happy to see the one guy with his golden retriever by his side throughout the documentary ❤️

[@Mysasser1]

I understand this. I need a lot of mental space and when I don't get it I lose my mind. I tell people that I need space and for me to get it have to literally flip out on them. When I say leave me alone it doesn't mean try to talk to me.

[@dontbelongherefromanother]

Agree, I hate when people ask me if I am okay when quiet

[@juliaf.9243]

@Mysasser1 same story. On the one hand, ppl want you to express your needs or mood, but when you do, they will not respect it. As if telling someone to get out of my face when all worked up already was just for jokes. And when I eventually flip on them, I must take the blame (you always flip so easily - oh, do I, though? isn't it more like you constantly try and push my boundaries or ignore my requests to leave me alone for a while?)

[@tiffclarke1157]

I'm the exact same. They really should listen and save us both the aggro. It's not rude its honest and it's me not them. Just a bit of space now n then should not be a seen as a big ask! 😒

[@Dx-zo8do]

I love how you can see the difference between people by this , some can’t live without constant work and some can’t take too much work .

[@dplsnolol]

And to think, all this is just getting worse....

[@richenh.6009]

Highly sensitive people like these do not have a easy life

[@tammyfader681]

Lots of snapping going on this past few months

[@icyivy2424]

Almost 3 years I took way too many sleeping pills... I battled depression since 2005... I was tried... my love left... it was *brutal* I was indifferent either I wake up or not... that how much life hurt.

[@HansSilver]

Im bipolar since 2004 i still suffering i lost two jobs i have severe insomnia and depression i wish i dead

[@AsrielAsitgets]

I “snapped” at work November 21st 2015…..I will never forget that day.

[@broomrider2697]

I did too. My coworkers didn't recognize what was happening at all and I lost my long time employment. Made me feel like even more of a failure. Turns out that it was the best that could have happened to me. Hope you are doing better. Much love and wellness to you from Colorful Colorado

[@kamakhyagatekanu]

@@broomrider2697 What happened ? If you don't mind me asking

[@broomrider2697]

@@kamakhyagatekanu Its good. I couldn't cope with anything at that point. I started crying, evidently over something very basic, and ended up yelling at another employee. All the stuff heard me and it was determined as me being abusive to fellow workers. Just lots of tears, pain, loss of my employment, etc. I didn't break anything or touch anyone thank goodness

[@kamakhyagatekanu]

@@broomrider2697 That must have been really difficult to go through. I hope you're doing well now.

[@broomrider2697]

[@aswuan]

me on the daily basis, contemplating snapping lol.

[@NoctisAquila]

everybody claims they understand mental health but in reality they don’t and there is still huge stigma. This is just getting worse- people are overworked and miserable. Neo-capitalism (10% make it, the rest are MADE BELIEVE they can make it or it’s their fault for not making it) and consumer culture (buy, buy, buy) perpecuated by social media - we’re doomed. We totally are

[@zerodegreescelsius]

They were absolutely right about there not being a single significant event that broke the camel's back. I broke down and got evacuated to the hospital for depression after a routine morning run, which was supposed to have filled me with endorphins and a great appetite for breakfast.

[@bestthingsinceslicedrice]

Im experiencing this first hand where 2 years ago I burned out, but just soldiered on taking it day by day operating like a robot where I just do what Im told. Yesterday it all just came crashing that I snapped at my wife and after i patched things up and move on. I lost all motivation in life, had suicidal thoughts and I just down right exhausted. Your rational mind tells you to do the typical advices people give but deep down you feel you are in a cage and need to work or else you will not make ends meet. So I now have an idea in a way how soldiers feel being stuck in the battlefield for years with no end in sight

[@LH-ot5rk]

So true about soldiers - stuck with no way out.

[@nrenner3]

This was me last January, just snapped at work after years of stress

[@sahithshetty6916]

Find a hobby to try and balance your energies Mindful meditation … yoga Something to boost your going Namaste 🙏🏿

[@leahmoonbeamflower333]

Honestly, the least stress out I’ve ever been was when I lived in squalor 😂. Van life…. ❤❤❤

[@ashleykt333]

how do people afford to leave work?

[@Scorned405]

Exactly My thought exactly

[@flautalee3090]

I think that in the UK, social services help folks who cannot work, survive.

[@NudePostingConspiracyTheories]

Many thanks

[@sophiegolden]

I found myself in the man with animals...

[@poppyflower7873]

Me, too. Life is always less stressful with minimal interaction with most human species. I remember the absolute dread of the weekend ending, and back to face the creepy kids at school. Listening to the radio, with fingers crossed, hoping your school would be on the list of "closed due to hazardous snow conditions". That anxiety is never forgotten, even at soon-to-be 79 years old.

Min 37 & few seconds into min37. cannot hear narrator over lap of noise of the grinder.

There is all the talk about global warming. It is eaqually important to prevent stress so society dose not break down. If society keeps making there demands every body will burnout.

[@Littlebean03]

This is a great show but WAY too many commercials!

[@Rome121]

Hi

[@pinkdarkboy7127]

Wow, this was a cool doc, but damn that ending statement was not good. "Everyone can feel better without medication!!!" is really the note they wanted to end on?? Alright, bipolar people, stop taking your lithium!! Your mania which is caused by your brain chemistry will magically go away! Good doc ruined for me by that one last line, lol.

[@dr.trixiecp5651]

Always follow YOUR OWN doctor’s recommendations NOT a random video on KZbin!

[@juliaf.9243]

Actually she said, not necessarily drugs, which makes a huge difference in context as to what you expressed in a fairly wrong quote...
