I didn't believe that music or an artist could have the power to touch someone so much until I met Lana. I know that many lay people who have never bothered to get to know her music say that her songs are sad and that they can encourage negative things. I understand that certain topics can trigger some people, but for me, listening to her was what gave me strength. I have never felt so lost in my life, but hearing about how she managed to move on and how she continues to fight her own demons gives me hope that I can too. I am grateful to have met Lana.

Also, a little side fact most aren’t privy to, but Jaime King’s husband is the director of the music video, and initially they were going to cast a male lead, but Lana wanted a female lead. I know her and have met her several times over the years because my Dad is in a band and they played a lot of the same festivals. She’s amazing to converse with, and she actually told me this. She wanted a female lead to reflect a side of her she rarely shows to the public. Sure, her preference is older men, but she also appreciates a woman in a deeper, more meaningful way than what is traditionally known of her. So, that’s how Jaime being cast as the female lead came to be. 😊

What you wrote in the description almost made me cry. Thank you so much. I have been battling severe clinical depression and anxiety for around three years. I've been in hospital for a week before, due to attempted suicide. Nowadays, I struggle with fighting off self-harm and substance use cravings. I've failed therapy repeatedly. My anti-depressants aren't doing anything. I have stage 1 autism, and I'm burnt out from it. I have severe trust issues, because I was bullied and physically beaten up in primary school by my "friend". Teachers did nothing to help when I told them I had no friends - repeatedly. My BFF for 9 years (since I was about 4 years old) turned out to be a gaslighter and manipulative. We haven't been in contact for over a year... and I still have nightmares about her. Every friend I've had since turned out to be fake. They've ganged up against me for being Christian, others have spread rumours about me, some have talked badly about me behind my back, whilst they're nice to my face. Others have ghosted me and cut me out. Now, I isolate myself and refuse to have friends. I don't trust them. Thank you so much for your description.

what i’m about to say is not exactly triggering, but it is pretty dark (but the second part is really important), because i can speak from experience of someone who tried to end it and survived. a lot of the times we do it because we don’t really feel loved by others, and 99% of the time when you ask for help people won’t listen, say they’re busy but they love you, people don’t take it seriously or worse: drop you off at the hospital and then you’re treated like shit by professionals. people with BPD find it very difficult to find a professional that will take their case just because their unreliable, so how can you ask for help when there’s no one to ask to, not even professionals? but there’s the other side of this, when you do it and you realize you will die, it feels like all your problems have solutions, you feel the love of your close ones, you fear how they will feel, you fear you won’t see them again, and now all you worry about is your survival, because everything else is manageable. so if you’re reading this, don’t let yourself get close to that edge, you don’t need to harm yourself in order to get a solution, and even if people seem busy they probably are just busy, and you’re far from being a burden, you’re a human for god sake, your tiredness will pass if you give yourself space to rest bc you have time to fix your problems, and all that love and care you desperately want from others, why don’t you give that to yourself? what would happen if instead of harming yourself you ran a nice cozy bath, watch a cozy movie, watched the moon above the dark sky? if you give yourself some space like a journal or a canvas to put it all out with no judgement words, and let things just be? what if you let life embrace you, even with hardships, you can chose to carry the good things, even the really little ones, in your heart.

At my worst I remember suddently getting like a primal instinct to survive, with this you are describing with thinking about other people and such. I was lucky and managed to call an ambulance on myself. Shortly after this episode I could start to actually feel benefit from my treatment and today 3 years later I am SO thankful I survived. Life didn't stop throwing hardships my way, and I still have BPD and PTSD but I am close to building a life for myself that truly feels worth living and I can co-exist with my emotions in a way I haven't been able to before. I can find joy in small things and look to the future with excitement most of the time. I never thought it could be possible for me.

This song hits so deep, it’s like an anthem for the kind of sadness that lingers in your bones. Summertime Sadness feels like a cry from the soul, capturing the weight of loss, the ache of missing someone, and the emptiness that follows. Every lyric echoes that pain of knowing you can never get them back, yet the memories haunt you like shadows. It’s more than just a song-it’s like Lana has put into words and music the feelings I can’t fully express. The line, ‘I just wanted you to know, that baby, you’re the best,’ is such a heartbreaking reminder of how we sometimes lose the people we love most, and all we’re left with are those memories. As I listen, I feel the heaviness in my chest, and it’s like I’m reliving my own sadness and loss through her voice. As they say, ‘Some scars are felt, not seen’… and this song is a reminder of the scars that stay with us forever.😔

I suffer from suicidal ideation, mostly passive, but I also have suffered the effects of losing someone I cared for to it. I was 12 years old when I was called that one of my best friends, who was only 10 at the time, had done it. It is such a hard thing at any point in someone's life to understand, I think, but man, as a 12 year old, I really thought somehow maybe it was my fault and I should have been able to do something. That was 33 years ago and it still haunts me and I still miss him and look at his picture. I carried his funeral slip with me for years after in my purse. And honestly, sometimes, the fact that I went through it with losing him has been one of the only things that has kept me from doing it myself because I didn't want to leave anyone else in those same feelings so by ending his, he may have saved mine.

Wow, I had never heard this song in this way before either. I think this video should have a clearer trigger warning, especially for the graphic images. A few years ago someone in my community died in this way. I never knew the person, (and I don't want to make this all about me) but I was amazed to see how many people felt the loss so deeply and were grieving. People who were usually completely focused on work/school dropped everything to take care of one another. This just shows how important people are, and how much they matter to everyone. It made me realize how much people truly cared about me, even when it didn't feel like it. I was really struggling, but I promised I wouldn't become another tragedy. It gave me the strength to get the support I needed and take time off to prioritize myself. Things were shitty for a long time, and I'm not going to downplay how painful it was. I used to wonder if it was worth even trying, but now I know that it is. I'll still be working on stuff for a while, but it's so much easier now. I didn't think I would ever be in the place I am today. I'm doing really well now, and am happier than I have ever been. I can do the things I want to do and actually enjoy my life. I'm really proud of who I've become. I've been able to share my story and encourage others to take care of their mental health. I've even had someone thank me, saying I helped them greatly. It really did get better and I'm so glad I'm still here. To anyone reading my random youtube comment, please stay. I hope this isn't too cheesy, but healing is always possible if you're still here.

I believe that this video represents the “pointlessness” of suicide. In the end, after her friend/partner commits suicide, they both end up in a dark, misty, empty space but are separated from eachother; each trapped by the mistake they made and only able to look across from eachother, not actually able to still be with eachother which was her hope after thinking about the memories they had of being together while alive. In the end they realized they permanently sealed their fate separated and apart from one another.

First time in I can't recall how long that I've been able to listen to this while it's still technically summer; already feels like Autumn here, which may have made a difference; certainly I've never been able to seek out reactions before. kerk

I don't know if you have yet, but if you haven't, listen to "Breathe" by Forest Blakk. It is a poem about suicidal ideation. In it, he beautifully narrates the thought behind suidide, at the same time that he counterpoints how unkind it is for other people. And the struggle within the individual who has these thoughts.

Your reaction is very justified because the subject is so sensitive in itself. I had a friend who died by suicide last summer. I read a comment that said that this is about one of Lana's friends who ended her life during a summer and hence, the name because now, every summer she thinks of it. I would know :') I think about some frames of the music video, that are repeated multiple times and it makes me think of how it feels to lose someone. Some memories, more than others, keep replaying in your head during the aftermath and you just can't seem to get them out of your head. It's very disturbing, to say the least. I hope you're feeling better, much love.

Everything you said here is why the club/radio remix that always gets played always bothers me so much. This is a serious, beautiful piece of art that should be appreciated for what it is. Lana got a lot of flack over the years for idealizing suicide but it's not her fault the general masses chose to mindlessly listen to the upbeat, dance remix.

Lana is prone to these types of videos and lyrics, talking about self destructive feelings and relationships... But summertime sadness is the most painful one in my opinion!!!

You know what’s wild Mere As a long time Lana fan and watching this at the time it came out…it didn’t feel like it was about eyl. It felt about a breakup, and wallowing in the summer.

this morning i went through my suicide note once again, have been depressed for more than ten years now. i don't seem to get better, and i'm completely missing life as a breathing corpse. my siblings have great lives, and my one and only fear is my sister hurting herself if i do something. anyway, long story short you made me cry

Weird question but working with disturbed people are you armed or have a panic button in your office i could imagine people get pretty worked up talking sometimes.

Hi! I am work with clients virtually at the moment. I’m licensed in NY but currently live in Ohio. When working in person in college counseling centers, we had a panic button and secret code words to alert our coworkers without anyone knowing. When I worked alone in an office with my private practice before Covid, I didn’t have any of that and it did concern me. Everything has changed so much now. Thank you for the question and concern 🤍
