Therapist gets Down With The Sickness by Disturbed (FIRST TIME REACTION)

[@loddfafnir6111]

You picked the censored version. Best part of the song is cut out. Still glad you're discovering disturbed. Definitely one of my all time favorite bands.

[@HeartSupport]

We became aware of the uncensored verison after recording. The only video we could find of it was someone had made a video with Aphex Twin Come to Daddy music video. We wanted to stay true to the band. Taylor was also creeped out by the come to daddy video. So we as a group decided to stay with the censored. Maybe in the future we will have her go over it again with the uncensored version.

[@Andrew46_2]

No one ever respects the original version

[@YTsupportsZionaziGenocide]

people really need to specify to play the right version of this song, almost every reaction channel makes this mistake, censored versions are never better than the original.

[@matchu.j]

[@MelvinCrocker-o7i]

Wrong it's about abuse and interchange inside is he going to become the abuser because he was abused if you were a therapist and get your s*** straight and get straight

[@MelvinCrocker-o7i]

Bulshit if you really knew what he was trying to say if you had listened to the official version it's about child abuse he became everything he hated that is the sickness so you can't give your pain without even knowing what the hell you're talking about

[@Richiepratt]

This girl is fkn amazing! Love her energy! Love her breakdowns on the lyrics. LOVE that she can just rock out and groove like nobody is watching! Imagine her as a concert buddy? Or even better, at a wedding?! She'd tear up a dance floor while making sure everyone in the room is having a blast with her! Such an amazing soul!

There is a longer version of this song, where David sings about a kid that is abused my his mom but then retaliates.

[@Treyvlog]

That is the version she needed to react to

[@KevinSPeace]

such a shame you landed on the edited version :( I was really looking forward to your commentary on the breakdown.

I'm an old dude, Marine, construction worker type etc. Never a big of therapists. The ones I was forced to deal with because of my step daughter all seemed like tree-huggers and out of touch. I just subscribed to your channel because you are the FIRST therapist that made sense to me through this song I love.

[@infernaloz6486]

Been there as weel. I don't want to bitch about my feelings, I want solutions, tools to deal with my issues.

[@psychotrixAVMC]

@@infernaloz6486 Ahahaha wow, I've been to therapy for 12 years, out 2 years ago and looking back, this phrase just about sums up what I was searching for. Got a lot of body work done at the start and that made progress but then the progress stalled when the sessions were shorted and "devolved" into just talking about feelings. I realize just kept looping waiting for the bodywork to come, which never did. Also, please, MEN, do not listen if a therapists says "more muscles or too much muscles and you lose contact with your feelings, you become too tough and rigid". I can't believe my lazy ass fell for this as an excuse to remain weak. Never again !!!

[@Mr.Sidenote]

The spoken part in the breakdown would have been perfect for a therapist to analyze. How did we miss that? I know it's pretty obvious but I would've loved to see Taylor's reaction to it.

[@kaceylinne344]

@heartsupport again, your video is exactly what i needed to hear. I just came from a productive therapy session this morning where in spite of the hurt, I opened up more then I had previously. Once again, please, never change.

[@doc145]

It’s sad and unfortunate that Chester is gone. Imagine Chester and David together on stage. Incredible.

[@Mach11976]

I wish the VA had therapists like you! Thanks Brian

[@justinburhns328]

If I'm not mistaken, this song is about self medicating in response to trauma (mental illness), and feeling the grip of addiction (and subsequent spiraling into "sewer slidal" ideation) set in as a horrific reality of "the sickness". Draiman is an outstanding advocate for change.

[@RonnieStanley-tc6vi]

I saw these guys in 2000 at Ozzfest. They were second stage and i heard this playing. When i finally drifted over there and watched them, i knew they would be on the main stage very soon. The play hard as hell live. They deserve all of their success.

Good explaining on the DBT, summarized but on point, love your content and lots of hugs.

[@stantvn]

I’ve seen these guys several times in concert. Always a good time and great show. David talks about suicide prevention and how we need to extend a helping hand when needed. One of my favorite bands for sure.

[@DarkAngel1985Mike]

Yes , I didn’t get better until I stopped therapy after high school, I had been in therapy since I was 5 , and they told me to deny it and what I was going through was just a phase and I had my first suicide attempt in the 3rd grade and many more through high school, I didn’t get better until I started dealing with it on my own and embracing my darkness and seeing it as a strength

[@spiritualtastebudsbyglenpu9123]

Really appreciated your view from a therapist. It really opened my eyes to things that I'm struggling with. Been trying to keep my demons down. Now have to figure out what to do. Thanks

[@vernhoke7730]

The first time, I had a proper listen to this, the uncut version was after I picked up the CD and was waiting in the parking lot to pick my daughter up after Pop Warner cheerleading practice in 2005. I had it turned up to rattle the windows.

[@magnumsolutions]

What a great explanation. Society teaches us that those dark feelings are bad and we must not acknowledge them. They are part of who we are and if we don’t acknowledge them and try to work through them they become the thoughts that control us. Thank you for putting things in perspective.

[@35boondocksaint]

On the album Immortalized, the song The Light is an amazing song of hope talking about those struggling and having people there for you, and has an amazing line: Sometimes darkness can show you the light! Give it a listen!

[@WolfQuantum]

I commented on another of your videos about recognizing, owning, and accepting that dark side so that you control it, not it controlling you. Years back this was my secret theme song. It spoke to the underlying rage, the years of feeling like I'd been held back and denied outlets of my emotions. I was always the nice guy. Being taken advantage of, etc. Today, I've become good with myself. I'm good being me and I'm just fine as who I am. I make mistakes, and make dumb choices now and then. But, I can accept that they are my choices and I take responsibility for them. Being capable of being dangerous if needed, doesn't mean you have to be dangerous. It just means you have it within you to protect, not destroy. You come to realize there are precious things that need protecting, but they also need nurturing and encouragement. You want them to grow without necessarily getting your own selfish desires in the process. But grow and be authentic because it's the right and beautiful thing and that matters more than selfish desires.

[@ModeloLoveMeLongTime]

The censored version of this song is not why I watched this video , the only reason why I decided to watch this video was to see how she was going to react and what she was going to say about the part cut out from this censored version.

[@thelettertwelve5789]

Great vid! You should check out another one of their songs: “The Game”. Probably one of my favorite choruses ever!

[@johnghiglione2641]

The first part where David Michael Draiman goes awahh in the song was added later on when they were recording the song. He did that when they were going through the song, and the other band members liked that, and it stuck to what it is today. Have you heard Disturbed's version of the Sound of Silance. The song was originally done by Simon and Garfunkel. Once Disturbed did their version, it was so good and powerful that Simon and Garfunkel passed the tourch to Disturbed on this song. You really need to listen to this song because it is epic.

[@samstevens9903]

David Draiman is also intelligent, thoughtful and articulate in his interviews. The analysis was pretty good. It is indeed about how society views and treats those deemed "different" or "other" (people with mental illness, disabilities, living alternative lifestyles). But it's not only about accepting but embracing your differences, your otherness. In the cases of trauma or mental illness, you absolutely want to strive to change and cope in healthy ways. But in the cases of alternative fashion, music and lifestyle choices... You don't need to change those. The only trauma from that is the fact that society othered you and didn't accept you. In those cases he is encouraging you to embrace it and tell society to go f*** itself.

Disturbed rocks a bit 🔥🔥

[@realBkay]

Taylor, the song was created from the spoken part which was deleted from this version. He is begging his mother to stop BEATING him. At a point, during the beating, his psyche breaks and he turns the tables on her - at which point she meets her maker.

Despite the censored/uncensored version topic on which was commented enough already, I'd like to turn the attention the the Violet Orlandi ft Ai Mori Cover of the song that hits really deep (and in that case definetely the uncensored one), that I consider really powerful and worth a seperate reaction.

[@RaiderNationJo]

I got to see them back in July with Breaking Benjamin & Jinjer. They were amazing and this song live was awesome. Definitely recommend seeing them if they're ever near you.

[@ryantitley4727]

Learning all about DBT to reframe things. There are some workbooks that walk you through some skills. If you Google DBT workbooks, you're bound to find some. Learning things like how anxiety can paralyze us but can also be there to warn us of things we need to be aware of. It isn't completely bad or good; it can be two things. Anyway, I never saw this song in this manner. Appreciate the framing.

[@SpencerHelle3128]

All Fucked Up will definitely be your most hard hit/emotional and definitely most touching music video you will watch when you do 😜 it definitely saved my life and still to this day gets me through my darkest days and moments. I’m not one to show my emotions but the first time I heard the song I bawled like a baby. Bawled even more when I watched the music video.

[@hirowinglessangel]

This song has been my personal favorite song of all time, from my personal fav band of all time, since I was 13. The only nob symphony concerts I've ever been to. All this without even thinking about any kind of meaning to it. At the time of this, I'm 4mnths into a post break up of a 1-year relationship. 3 months since I attempted unaliving myself, because of it. In March, her dad had been placed in hospice lung cancer 6 months to live. The night before, she left. She had talked about letting our lease end and moving back to her hometown to help. I had some issues about her hometown and freaked out a bit. She left the next day, no word, no notice. I only knew cause I came home to talk to her at lunch, and by then 4 hours and she was gone. Five days later, her dad died. She called to tell me, then the next day blocked and ghosted me on everything. Month later, of no contact, I had enough and drove down there to check up on her. We spent an hour talking, catching up. She was pulled away and distant. 2 was later we scheduled a meet-up, and I brought her mail. It felt like then, she was gone. The woman I loved wasn't this woman before me. She kept me away and didn't let me support her in her time of need. She was gone, checked out. Another 2 weeks later into may, and one week before my bday. I had started a new job, more money to take out an expensive apt without her support. My car broke down, and I was stranded. Scared of losing my job, car, apartment, and fear of having lost her. I tried to call, but that's when I learned I had been blocked, so I used *67 and a masking app, called gee least 6x and left some panicked emails. Then, 2 days later the I'm ending this and not coming back to email. I was so ashamed immediately the day I called and felt such guilt. I wanted to end my own life cause I went crazy for an instant. I have to live with that pain, shame and guilt of it all everyday. Distrubed has always been my sad go to, and comfort in knowing how they are serious about suicide prevention. I still can't accept what I did, or her being gone... let alone forgive myself for it all.

[@HeartSupport]

From KyleGouldOfficial: @hirowinglessangel Hi First, going through all of this sounds painful to hear and i heard this song since i was a teenager in high school but it also a song that helped during a rejected time where i was told no to a relationship which is honestly heartbreaking. But, even after all this we have to continue pressing on. I recently became a heartsupport volenteer and heartsupport is really a great atmosphere to be in and is always here to be a beacon where you can share your thoughts. Now, from your experiences with this that this person just decided to leave everything behind was really one sided for her and she was not likely deciding what would right choice in the relationships. But you definitely fought through a struggle of things and should be proud of what you did get through. Definitely don't feel like guilty for the situations that happened on here end nor do you have to be sorry for it. Sometimes relationships don't fit and it okay but don't beat up yourself to much for this you were just trying to figure out what was wrong and you did what you can in the end.

[@HeartSupport]

From ManekiNeko: @hirowinglessangel There are so many dynamics that come into losing a relationship. It’s not just a loss of love, it’s a loss of their presence, a loss of time spent together, a loss of the future, a loss of what was built between you. It’s painful and sometimes when dealing with loss of relationship and loss of family, it can drive people to isolation. It makes it hard when you want to be a support and want to stand by someone’s side when they are hurting. Having all this grief, the shock of it happening so suddenly, is something that many people would find such a hard thing to try to rationalise. Because how can we rationalise something that hasn’t been thought out and planned? Our minds are a blur, our thoughts are a blur and it makes sense that at the end of losing a relationship, feeling financially vulnerable and feeling like the world is caving, that these thoughts jump at you. I’m so glad you’re here to share your experience and your heart. Music is such a connecting and powerful tool. It’s like this realisation that somewhere in the world there are others who feel those same things and have come through the other side. Who stand by your side and journey through with you without even knowing. I hope that sharing here will bring you some comfort that there are those here who see you and hear you.

[@HeartSupport]

From satty22: @hirowinglessangel That sounds so rough. I feel for you. Sending you some love. You really seem to be aware of how chaotic your life was. Hopefully now things have calmed down a bit add both you and your ex can get some peace. Maybe after some healing you can offer again to reconnect. For now, keep your head up and be gentle with yourself. Reaching out for help and posting here is a good healthy step. Thank you for that. Satty

[@HeartSupport]

From ebcoile: @hirowinglessangel Thank you so much for reaching out and being completely open and honest about this particular situation and all that has led up to this moment. We are all human and with that comes emotional reactions to things that we are dealing with. I can't count the number of times that I reacted wrongly and felt guilty about it. What im hearing is that you realized that you could have reacted differently and thats important to note. When we ise those moments to take a look at ourselves and vow to become better, that shows what a truly caring person you are. It sucks when the timing of life turns out to not be in our favor, but understand that people grow and sometimes they grow apart. It sucks, but dont let that get you down. Use every opportunity to grow. Who knows, there may be a time that you two have an opportunity to speak again and you can show that you realize you could have said things or reacted differently and that growth and honesty can be seen. Dont give up on yourself, you are a good person and I know that by your admitting that you learned something from this time apart. With love Eric

[@HeartSupport]

From twixremix: @hirowinglessangel hey friend, thank you so much for being here and trusting this community with what weighs heavy on your heart. i’m so glad you are here today to share your story and for fighting hard to make it to this moment. it’s understandable how a large move to a hometown you have issues with could have been jarring for you and caused that reaction. the timing with her dad’s hospice transition and sudden passing must have been so difficult so all around, it was a stressful time for everyone. that pain, shame, and guilt you hold on your shoulders is no doubt overwhelming. i believe in your healing journey to know that you can grow and fight for a brighter tomorrow. you deserve all good things this world has to offer and nothing could make that untrue. you were stuck in such a chilling moment with fears of great loss and when we find ourselves in that spot, we do things we wouldn’t normally do. her decision to block was in her control but you have the control and power to learn, grow, and thrive. i believe in you fully and unconditionally. wishing you all the best in your journey, my friend. you got this. love, twix

[@OverlordFluffy97]

Do Inside the Fire next, it's a very personal song to the frontman, it's literally about his experience with a girl who they both got hooked on drugs, he was blamed and forced away from her, she eventually died and the song is about how he felt she was taken from him and her death was the result.

Me I have generalized anxiety disorder and if my anxiety gets bad enough I suffer from panic attacks. I’ve had to accept the reality of that. I just don’t like how many anxiety makes me feel. But I’m also an empathic individual. Meaning I have empathy that’s not on a normal level it’s above the normal level. But on a psychic level. So my empathy just adds to my anxiety. Sometimes it’s hard to tell if it’s just straight up my anxiety or my empathy or both? But also according to the mayor Briggs test I am INFP too.
