Struggling With Depression (It got bad again)

[@adcolt54]

You put too much pressure on yourself with your social media and your businesses. Your subs don't dictate how you should act. You need to relax. Have some fun. You are young, smart, well spoken, fit and handsome. People and your subs won't go away if you make a mistake or post once a week. You need to start believing in yourself and have confidence that how you live your life will not result in people and subs walking away. Let people in. You'll be surprised how many love you and will be at your side when you're having a bad day.

I think people get caught up with the Gary v’s of life to post every single second of your day but IT IS EXHAUSTING

[@lorenzo._.lpr2006]

I’ve been going through the same thing recently, don’t worry Alex. Your not the only one, I’ve been super lonely recently too. And when i am with a ton of people/friends/family or with people i know in general. I feel like i have to put on a show; like everything’s alright. when it really isn’t. BUT, i push through it because i know that God has a plan and purpose for me. I know that i have to go through certain trials and tribulations, in order to get to the other side. I’m an optimistic person, and i’d like to think that i’m being put through things to prepare me for life later on. So we just have to keep going. We only get stronger and only get better Alex, just keep going.

[@ItsMoonSmoke]

Dont let anybody take your joy.. Thank you for sharing that story man

[@Blacklabel8836]

Sorry to hear about your battle with depression man. Always got people here for you. My relationship with god has grown tremendously with the help of your pod.

[@angelosinging1909]

For anyone watching or even Alex you’re not alone. We tend to over think thinks when we have anxiety or depression at times & the hardest part is seeking help sometimes. Being on your own is a difficult task since you may feel you have no one to turn to or believe they won’t understand. If you can try to keep as you can & most definitely don’t put yourself under too much pressure.We have to remember life goes on and what we do we can only do our best. But as humans we have the opportunity to change the pattern and the way we think about the world,implement new ideas and try new things like meeting a new person everyday maybe or even speaking to someone/asking how someone’s day was whether they are close to you or not. It goes along way & the only way we find ourselves/our purpose is really when we are in our own element & have that feeling of relief . Day by day,brick by brick. You’re on the right track & god loves you❤🙏🏻. - angel

[@ASLLPZ]

I don't usually comment, but I felt the need with this one. For months I've been dealing with extreme anxiety and depression. I dropped out of college a while back and I've been job hopping ever since. I wake up on a daily basis feeling unfulfilled, worried, and overwhelmed overall. I wish I could find help and touch base on some possibilities for a better future. I feel alone often and have even began feeling like an outsider in my own family. I've delt with depression in the past and can definitely relate to negative energy making me feel worthless, unloved, and alone. Lately, I've been struggling to find help, whether it be a therapist or some form of counseling. I don't like feeling like a victim but I know that I need help with my mental health. When you post these types of videos, it really helps me to understand that there are many young men like me. Please continue sharing your experiences with your mental health, God Bless.

[@Landon.official_]

Currently cross faded rn and super depressed and regretting my decisions, just wanna find me way back to god and my path of my true self

[@gavinneese4116]

Gods using you bro. Can’t wait to watch it all play out

[@oofusdeletus1428]

what?

[@EthanDowning-uy5mi]

I honestly do know how you feel. Although it’s not a big deal bc I’m just one of your million fans but I had that same exact thing. You just need to build up a relationship with a friend to the point where you can share anything with them. It took a long time for me but I did manage to do that. Although it sounds like it could be really hard for you, there is always someone who is there for you. We all love you bro. Take as many breaks as you need. You’re human too. Remember that

[@quinncohane803]

Bro. I love you man. I needed this bro. I promise you bro this video had touched me and the spirt of God guided me to your video. Thank you for making this bro and I’ve been on the same path of faith. Recently I felt isolated and like I have my own calling different from everyone else’s even though I do but I’ve just felt different and in a season with God and I’ve been really struggling with faith. I think I hit rock bottom and your video is the first action that God has wanted me to take on my way back up. Watching this video felt so joying to me and I finally could relate to someone when I’ve been feeling like I can’t. Thank you for making this video bro. I love you❤ God bless

[@quinncohane803]

I’ve been feeling like the only way to futile this special calling that God has for me is too do it just with him and keep to myself through everything but like you said bro I need to find and I pray to God that I find likeminded people to talk to through these times and through every season. Hopefully we can even talk too.

[@devrooffline]

gave me the chills, love ya alex, the real ones will stick around, we all feel like this also and just know god has you forever✝️

[@JoeySanchez-ng3si]

I deal with this too my brother. 28 years old and it started once I turned 25 years old. It’s a horrible feeling and sometimes I feel all alone, As you already know. You are never alone. Keep posting this because this type of video is saving lives. Transparency and vulnerability True strength

[@swoops41]

Social media destroying ppl on both sides. But they won’t step away

[@JudeJonesMinistries]

Thank you for all you have done for me Alex you will be in my prayers tonight and you will overcome this. God bless you

[@FreedomisWealth]

Bro definitely consider moving to Charlotte we have the most supportive community!!!! Always here for you bro we love ya

[@Jake-8]

Need this Alex past 2 months have probably been the headrest of my life my grandmother got cancer my grandfather died my grandmother beat cancer then she died I met a girl then I got hurt been really depressed but the gym has been my pourpose but I realized I need to go to god and trust in him thanks Alex needed this bro

[@BradyPerry09]

We're here for you Alex. When I first started watching your videos I was shocked to find out that your story is pretty similar to my own. Your Christian content is awesome and it's really cool to see someone my age unashamedly spread the Gospel these days. God bless bro!

[@ryanlion9197]

please keep doing this... its good for you and good for us...

[@AndrewGarcia26]

hey brother that twitch you have been having on your ear is definitely a sign it’s always been placed on my heart to do content and never knew why until recently. God is talking to all of his children and you are definitely one of them that he wants to use , you are going to do huge things alex, God just wanted me to remind you to listen to that twitch in your ear and the thoughts of worship night etc i would love to be there , i have so many ideas and hopefully one day will sit down with you seeing how we can spread Gods kingdom in Jesus name ✝️

[@devenwyandt9]

Felt this, on the spiraling part especially. Such a weird thing, hard to explain. God bless man.

[@St4y_otw]

we love you bro your not the only one 💜

[@maciejwojdya5210]

Stay strong Alex, God bless You 🙏❤

[@connormurphy3291]

Thank you so much for this Alex. Needed this and I’m going to be more serious about my faith now because of you.

[@corbinbh]

I relate to this a lot. I'm glad Alex is so open with his fans. Alex has always been my favorite influencer, and I've done a couple posts about him. I talk to him on snap all the time but he never responds... 😂. I did a series of trying to talk to Alex Eubank day ______, and I made it to day 90 before I gave up. We love you Alex

[@redzing114]

stay strong brother God has clearly blessed you in so many ways.

[@honkeydoodledonkey2877]

I’ve been going through it as well and it almost seems like there’s no hope but I will continue to have faith in Christ and pray that he will restore my heart ❤ and yours as well. I can relate to you a lot here and will be praying for you 🙏

[@NewMoneySATX]

Hang in there dawg, just keep staying positive

[@UhhHuhHoney]

Alex brotha, I truly feel like you need more Christian community. Real community with similar beliefs/thought processes, who supports and prays for you.

[@gwilli4]

12:29 Man, the ear twitch got me. It’s gotta be a sensitivity to the Holy Spirit, the same thing happens to me and when I slack on my walk with God the twitch goes away or I’m not as sensitive to it but when I’m consistent and intentional it comes back. Wow, that shook me when you said that, I thought I might have been crazy

[@ricocutz]

That was definitely an angel bro, the timing was too perfect and we know that His timing is perfect and that’s why we have to trust it. 🙏🏻 Stray away from secular music, it’ll rot your mind with unholy thoughts brother. Keep the faith, just know that this period in your life is just Him preparing you for something greater he has in store for you! 🙌🏻

[@AidanWilkison]

Thanks Alex for your openness, I really respect how you talk about your faith and are very real to the people who follow you. I’ll be praying for you in this difficult time. Don’t feel bad about not posting, people will understand, and keeping your mental and spiritual life in check is far more important than posting.

[@sillygymbro200]

we look up to you alex, we'd love to come to you and just talk like normal human beings. we have to look out for each other man. you're not alone in this. keep believing in faith and continue having podcasts for us to listen. you will always be heard! love you man (:

[@darian1145]

I relate to you a lot bro struggling with these things sometimes feels wrong as a Christian but we are only human at the end of the day we have to lay back and remember life isn’t meant for us to pile all our worries on our shoulders we meant to cast them all on the lord it sounds easier than it is but try to remember to do it and soon you will see a little shift and remember bro Gods the one really in control even though we feel like we have it at times. But something that helps is definitely being around other believers bro so you can get some different perspectives and see someone might be going through something similar to you so you don’t feel alone. The enemy thrives in the darkness it’s good you bringing these things to the light so people can encourage you and shed light on your situation. I love you bro God loves you more …

[@PaulLydon-ev4lm]

Alex your the reason I'm so proud to stay natural and you give me strength to post about myself when in reality I like to keep it quiet. Im so happy I've someone to look up to that's around the same age as me. Bless you Alex I'm so happy you exist in the bodybuilding community

[@Jefro-ph2iw]

Ur a bright light in this world stay golden

[@BigBoyBuck]

I've never really struggled with depression, but I wonder how are you running everything on the business end of things for your channel and other social media platforms. I wonder if part of what you're feeling is being overwhelmed with the work load. Is there anyone else out there, like your dad, that you can delegate tasks too to free up your time and focus on the things that you enjoy more about this career? I'm praying for ya man. May the Lord give you the wisdom to power through this and continue to grow.

[@samuelthomas3106]

I really needed this God blessed you Alex im also at a low point in life to the point where I don’t care anymore and watching this has just really helped so much thank Alex Eubank truly

[@michaeldacayanan9849]

Move to Kentucky bro!! You’re an inspiration to us all! Need a friend like you around.

[@Loganhoule1]

thank you Alex, youre savin people out here

[@BenUyama]

I feel you bro. I've been there. The best thing I've done as a man is surround myself with other men. Sounds like it would be a life changer for you as well. It's worth fighting for.

[@Wyattstoneroad]

Real talk brother. Post whatever is on your mind and be raw and open. True followers, and as I see it your “core followers,” will support the authentic you. My life changed as I found a church at my college where I’m starting to experience true brotherhood. Lots of young men being able to be raw and vulnerable with one another and it’s a special thing. Keep your head up bro. Each day, each moment, it’s all a blessing ‼️

[@UhhHuhHoney]

This video helped a lot for myself too Alex, I appreciate the vulnerability, praying for you specifically today, and just wanna say to pray for community that you’re looking for too 💪🏼🙏🏼

[@cristianrivadeneyra323]

Wish you nothing but Peace happiness & good health buddy

[@MrCaptainPenguin]

We’re here for you i feel the same nice to know im not alone

[@goul2615]

Lots of respect for you bro. Showing the struggle and not just the pretty parts of your life and walk with Christ.

[@luke.hutcherson]

This is so good dude. Thank you for sharing. It's wild to know how many people relate to feeling a similar way. I've had my lowest lows too. It sucks. But Jesus is always good and always with us. You're doing a good job. Don't be so tough on yourself. Keep seeking Him. Love you man

[@michaelonwuamaegbu1637]

I love this content. Never seen much of your content before this stuff. I’m loving it for real🙏🏾

[@josph27]

I understand everything you have said, just came out of a dark depression myself

[@mike.jmcclain]

Great discussion bro 🙏

[@thebig_why]

This is why you are my favourite fitness creator, your courage to be vulnerable and so real and to always put God first continues to inspire me. I hope to work with you one day Alex, keep your head up bro praying for you ❤

[@Moeahu]

Stay strong brother

[@Scrappymuscle]

And if you move down here to Charlotte North Carolina I would love to hang with you and fellowship

[@aligbaja-biamila7248]

Love these therapy sessions Alex. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing❤

[@bananenzijnkrom0197]

bro i love your honesty and openness! You can get thru this 💪 god is with you 🙏

[@jmakai1182]

Hey Alex, I have been going through it too recently. My advice for you is as you are doing, double down on your faith and remember the times were you were strong in faith and keep praying for God to bring a close community for you. Look at psalm 23:4 and listen to Everything Falls by Fee

[@tjwhit23]

This was a blessing bro! Maybe try therapy but thank you for your vulnerability much needed when you’re on the walk with Christ solo

[@gustavoretamal4993]

Keep going man, God has us in his hands, im been struggling with the same problems recently, but you know, no man can run from his own history, we have a purpose and we have to be strong, blessings to yall ❤️‍🩹✝️

[@martymcflyy547]

Needed to watch this. Thank u God bless brotha

[@Dipsguy_]

I feel this. The difference is when you get depressed you keep posting and being strong. Alex keep your chin up. You inspire me to be a better man always. I pray God frees you from the pain or makes you strong enough that it can’t budge you. You are so strong

[@chevalierdesangreal]

people constantly ask me why I'm am not on social yet cause I have ideas for it. I can't keep explaining to them that I suffer from heavy anxiety and depression cause they don't have it and don't know what it's like. also, I've been researching what it takes to be a full time content creator and I already know that I can't sustain the rythm on a long run. everytime a succesfull content creator admits to battling anxiety and depression I wonder how they did it 😮💪🏽

[@Prototyp_Edits]

i love it how open you speak about this, was so good to listen, and i could comprehend sooo many points...thanks❤

[@Miguel-wk5bv]

We’re all gonna make it brahh 🙏🏿

[@Jordan.low2]

glad u made this vid makes me feel like I ain’t alone when I feel like how you feel

[@nsimiskey]

Thank you so much for this I think it’s amazing how open you’ve been and it really is inspiring to me and lets me know im not alone in my struggles either. You inspire me in my faith and I just encourage you to keep going in your pursuit of Christ and living your mission 🫶

[@jcf44]

Stay in the fight Alex 🙏🏻

[@andrewvaladez1246]

Go have fun papa by yourself travel and meet people while you’re alone go snow boarding or hiking or surfing learn something new you got this papa be strong 🙏🏼💪🏼

[@thehonoredone4169]

Bro, you may not see this, but I understand you very well when you talk about your mental state. I went through depression and all kinds of problems, I had a period when I wanted to kill myself every day, I crossed the street without making sure if the cars were coming or not because I didn't care. So I understand everything you feel but don't beat yourself up and please don't have thoughts of hurting yourself. Know that in the last year you were the person who helped me rediscover God and I love your series of episodes on this channel. Everything will be fine, sometimes it is true that you have moments when nothing is the same, but you have to resist because that period will pass.

[@dexteraeptiktok]

We are allways here Alex we love you!

[@jacobmyers0615]

Alex the reason people look up to you isn’t because you got your life together, it’s because so many young people found an honest and transparent content creator. Keep being authentic. Love you man! id love to get into contact with you brotha. Jesus saved me. Id love to share my testimony whichu. love you man!

[@rijd2304]

Depression can last a while. What helps is training the mind to let go and accept the moment, no matter how dark it is. The book "30 Days to Reduce Depression" by Harper Daniels helped me with some cognitive and meditation exercises to take a break from the struggle.

[@CharlesChopic]

Thank you so much for just being you man. You showing ur hardship is help me out with some of things in my life. You are completely right the god is the only thing that can give you true joy thank you so much for everything you do

[@bradywestwood6754]

Alex I completely understand where you are coming from and you are not alone in this situation, god has a plan for you and you will recover from this and will make it through. Ignore the haters everyone that watches your videos loves you and are here for you.

Thank you Alex 🙏🏽 You are the only one that talks about this stuff in my life. I also struggle with loneliness and depression and it’s hard for me to connect with others because I isolate myself as well. You are my brother from another mother. Also, you have helped me strengthen my relationship with God 🕊️

[@carloschavez914]

thank you for this bro really get you and completely relate.Praying for you,this faith walk is the hardest walk but most rewarding.If you know that the Holy spirit is calling you to something new take a leap of faith, you have the strength in Jesus to take initiative and receive his blessings!Praying for you.

Alex I'm here for you Brother proud of you for sharing your faith and being open and transparent. One day I promise you God will bring you to a place where you look back on this video and laugh at how much growth you made in Christ. If I'm consistent with my channel I know you will be one of the first people Ill link up with, that's only if God choses to bless it. Love you man wish you best. Rest in him and he will fight for you.

To get in contact with you would obviously be like a miracle but it’s just more like I know how you feel and it would just be like amazing to talk to someone that has went through this and is currently going through this. ❤

[@GymRatCrypto]

Your thoughts are not real. You will never find peace from outside of yourself. You will learn this. You are on the right track.

[@kingdavidnico]

Hey Alex, I've been feeling a bit like you recently and from what I've noticed is that the less I read the Bible and the less I've prayed, the more sad and lazy I got. And just remember that you're never alone, God is always with you and will always be with you. And if you see this comment, please read Romans 7 and 8, I think it will help you. God bless ♥️🙏
