Victor King | "DEPRESSION"

I know it might seem like I share too much on these social media sites, but there is actually a lot i don't tell you.
As you might know these last few years have been difficult for me. I've been in many battles, and it's true when they say that you're greatest opponent is yourself. Depression, anxiety and suicidal ideation was all I knew for a few years, but things are starting to change now.
I'm amazed at how quickly life has turned around these last few months. There were literally weeks when I couldn't even get out of bed because the fear was too strong, and now with you're help I'm heading to Paris.
For whatever reason my high school didn't have a 10 year reunion (or the evite got lost in the mail), and even though social media kind of eliminates the need for actual reunions, it is still a valuable marker in ones life. I'd like to encourage anyone going through a hard time with this; Life moves on. Pain is temporary, and you can't wait for anyone to make you happy. If you have a dream, it is your a responsibility to at least try.
Nobody's perfect, and we're all broken. Let's pick up the pieces together.

Victor, this will probably get lost in your pool of messages but I want to write you this anyways. I have been a fan of you for years and this past year I was diagnosed with major and chronic depression as well as panic and anxiety disorders. 4 times, I have escaped death from suicide. Gosh...when I saw your message to everyone today, I was truly touched. I am so glad to hear that you have overcome your suffering. If you ever feel that depression coming back to attack you again, I hope you can use your BEAUTIFUL voice, your dancing, and your art to pull yourself out of that hole. It isnt easy to open up about this, but you are an inspiration. I havent been able to go to school and have been at the hospital everyday for months, and it feels pretty weird being kinda of disconnected with the rest of the world. You have inspired me to continue to fight so I can get back on my feet again too :) "Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional" my favorite quote =) stay awesome Victor Kim

[@mcannon126]

missed u victor never thought i would see you dance again

[@MakReapSev]

You are not forgotten Victor. Inspiring in so many ways. YTF.

[@s4dia]

It's great to hear that you're getting back on your feet. I've not admitted to anyone yet but I'm currently in the same boat, just a little behind you, in the sense that I need to pick myself up and continue moving forward. I hope to be able to get to where you are today. And dude, you're awesome! Your songs and your dancing.. keep sharing and keep smiling!

[@wennessa94]

I don't know and perhaps yet to know why would people suffer from depression but I am glad that you've gathered enough strength and courage to walk out your past and knowing that you are starting to continue inspire others with your passionate dance and beautiful voice that is unique in your own way. Keep Smiling Keep Loving

[@Jamesezie]

Victor Kim has to be my number one role model. I remember when i first saw you on ABDC. Your the reason i became a bboy and your the reason why i started to get serious in dancing. Your style in Dancing, Music, and Art has truly inspired me into the arts kinda person i am today. I'm glad your fighting and winning this battle. At the end of the day you can consider yourself "Victor'ious!" (HAHAHA SEE WHAT I DID THERE) and then celebrate with some milk and cookies :3 In all honesty though, your return makes me so happy and i am super excited to see your future and to see you grow into the King you are. Keep Smiling. Keep Dancing. Keep Loving. Victor Kim.

[@scottsayasithsena]

Stay Up! You're strong and you got this! look forward to more things!

[@RocketRoketto]

I remember when and how I first discovered you many many many many years ago, I was such a big fan and still am. I admired the facts that you were smart, humble, down to earth, open, honest, multi talented, hard working and real. You were always so nice to your fans, new or old. I sought inspiration from you for many years and was deeply saddened when you stopped being online as that was the only way I could know what you were up to and when you left Quest. Quest isn't the same without you. As a person going through the same things as you, I was actually blown away that you of all people was diagnosed with CD. I never would of imagined that someone I deemed so strong and positive would be have it but I'm happy you're doing better and you're getting help. I on the other hand am another story. Thank you for everything Victor 💕

[@shaunabath]

Im glad you came back, Victor:)

[@bibimbap96]

What you wrote in the description really touched me, as I've been struggling with black thoughts and ideas about suicide since my teenage years (like many others I think, unfortunately). I'm glad to see that you're in the path to recovery now. You're awesome, you already achieved so much, and it's essential to keep having goals and to go outside of your comfort zone, like you're doing by going to Paris. That's what we need to get ahead in life. Much love from France (BTW, sorry for the mistakes), it's an honour to know that you'll be visiting my country soon. Travels are life! :) Wish you all the best in your life.

[@1Amy4]

Thank you, Victor. Really... thank you.

[@momonamuag284]

The last sentences were so inspirational, and im really moved by you, Victor! Im really really glad to hear that you're back and growing stronger as time goes by. You're literally one of the most amazing people i know, and with such beautiful heart. I adore you in so many ways and for so many reasons. Love you, Victor

[@viviensays]

I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.- John 16:33 We all know you can do it Victor! *huggs from Malaysia*

[@heyitssu_sie9023]

Victor King, we'll always be here for you, through thick and thin. You are the shining star and you're such an insperation! Lots of love!

[@noods9088]

Dude Victor, I'm so glad that you are feeling better and that you are back now. You are my biggest role model and you inspired me to sing, dance, and play my ukulele. I'm extremely happy to know that you are getting better now and that you are back. You encouraged me to chase my dreams and to not give up. Keep pushing and stay strong man.

[@21sanim3]

It is definitely a joy to have you back making content for your fellow fans. Whatever happened stays in the past and there should be no reason to dwell on it. Your dancing brings entertainment as well as art to KZbin and towards people who watch your videos. Keep going with your passion bro! (You're not sharing too much on social sites by the way)

[@Marilyn31311]

I don't think you share too much I'm glad your open about your struggles. I've dealt with depression myself and every time I've tried to hide it, because I always felt ashamed. Sometimes it helps just to know your not alone. So thank you for being open, and thank you for being an awesome person :).

[@sparkleT19]

Stay Strong! You aren't alone. Depression is serious, and I am glad you are doing better.

[@IDemandAPanda]

Victor, I suffer from depression too, so I totally know what you're going through. But the world needs more talented and--above all else--KIND people like you. I'm glad you're on the road to recovery, but if you ever start having these feelings again, know that we (your fans) love you and will be with you every step of the way!!

[@mgustafson2010]

we all love you and support you victor. Your work in dance and art has touched us all in ways you will never understand. we pray blessings upon you and your battle with depression. You have captured a real part of the human experience which is depression. we love you always.

[@Juulx1]

I'm in the same postion at the moment, I feel a lot better and my anxiety levels are so much lower but I still have to work on it every day. Thank you for sending this message out to your fans, we understand and support you in everything. I feel like you're a great rolemodel for people with mental health issues. Good luck for the future, I'm sure you (and I too) will be okay.

[@ohnomynino]

I hope you are doing well, Victor. I only started to find you and getting to know you more with the videos you've left here. I'm glad i finally found you, and this channel. So far, your videos have been putting a smile on my face. Thank you, and I hope to see you

[@caitlinle3426]

I'm so proud of you Victor. Things do get better and we all go through tough times in our lives. I'm happy you saw the light and know that things do get better, it's just the question of when. I'm proud of you and we all support you. We're glad you are getting back up and coming back

[@kenn-fucius]

thanks for getting me to start dancing i would of never had friends (before highschool started i never had anyone) or an amazing school life without you victor i cannot believe three to four years have passed since you inspired me i hit a wall as well it took me really hard i gave up on everything the 3-4 years that i devoted 10 months ago just vanished im coming back again but this time i will not stop and i am glad your feeling better well we both are and i hope you continue to do all that you do and inspire more people along the way because you will always be my main source for inspiration and motivation to move forward thanks for being you and i know you might not even see this comment but i am really thankful victor you changed my life.

[@lifeisadream1471]

Hey Victor, I was suffering for 4 years, I worked, I went to school and I didn't have anyone to lean on for support. I was so depressed and alone....I didn't think someone like you with friends, family and exciting things going on in your life could hit depression, but I've learned that it can happen to anybody. Anyway, I had my big break when I went to PARIS. I had to stop thinking inward and start thinking outward if that makes sense, there is so much more to life! I hope you will enjoy, they say it is a city of romance or lights :) and yes nothing in this physical world is permanent.

[@avitalpikovski2613]

God guided me to open and read whats in the description box and dear Victor King, your words inspired me to go out there and make myself happy again. I can see Anthony and Mike in the mirror so youre in good company :) stay strong, youre beautifull

[@kchhunphoto]

Your one of my heros, i cheered and clapped for you guys when i saw you win abdc, your dancing, music, and talent bring joy to people's hearts. I myself fight depression almost everyday your videos back than use to put a smile on my face. I'm glad to hear your getting better, stay strong brother.

[@bukchoibros4682]

Victor King still got it! :D

[@xkidnaperx]

I found out about your depression like a few months ago and I just wanted to say that I'm happy you're getting better now. Anxiety and suicidal thoughts are one of the hardest things people deal with nowadays. And seeing how strong you've became makes me feel stronger. Keep fighting, because you're so close to being fully happy. Love

[@EmryMyrddin]

Victor, None of us may really know you - or at least the vast majority of us, your fans, don't - but I'd like to think that we don't have to. You're human, we're human, and that means something, even if so many people discredit what it implies. What I mean to say is that just because we don't know you personally, I don't think it means that we have no right to care about you, so from the bottom of my heart I can tell you truthfully that I'm happy for you. Everyone goes through things in life that are rough, and everyone's weaknesses are different, so those rough spots are damn hard to compare. I feel no shame is saying that I'm proud that you're getting through your own rough spots. As for sharing on social media sites? Well, we're human too, and seeing as I'd like to think of KZbin as one of the more innovative and caring social communities, I'm pretty sure I speak for all of us when I say that you'll always have us, and we've always got your back. I'm glad you're back. Honestly, you're an inspiration, and don't forget it, yeah? No pressure, no worries. More than anything, it's your humanity and ultimate strength to get back up after you've been knocked down that makes you a hero, not your invincibility. Regardless of my struggles, the struggles of your other fans, or the struggles of any single individual we'll each meet in our lives, when you put your heart out here and tell it to us the way one person would to another... well... it means more than I'm sure words could describe. Thanks, Victor. And again, I'm glad you're back.

[@maetamonxg7718]

IsleofIngenuity I hope he reads this; you've expressed everything so well and I had completely resonating thoughts

[@fhammy1]

What you wrote in the description made me think and cry. Thats what i need right now. Thank you! And i hope that you're doing good despite of whatever you're going through right now.

[@justrd9]

Nice to see that you're doing better. Everything you said is completely accurate. Pain is temporary and life does move on. I've had issues with anxiety and depression and had suicidal thoughts in my life too. I've learned that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger and that everything I've been through has made me a better and stronger person. I've been going to group therapy for about 4 years and have been on medication for my panic attacks, and even though things aren't exactly where I want them to be still I see light at the end of the tunnel. Glad to see you've found what works for you and you can keep doing what makes you and others happy. Love your videos, I would do anything to have your talent. You have a lot of good things going for you.

[@ChristinaGrace05]

make sure you take a moment to read the description you guys

[@drewlsy]

Victor, discover the power within yourself. Stillness in motion. Impermanence is the essence of life's cycles, so embrace change: ALL THINGS MUST PASS. Keep in mind, in a world of billions of people you are blessed to have been born into what you have been born into, cherish it and thrive.

[@adrianaamaliaherviany2868]

I miss you Vic =)

[@BiGbAnGlessthan3]

1:50 SO SMOOTH!

[@caitlinholliday]

you definitely didn't deserve to go through any of that. But, I'm so happy that you're getting through it and that you are feeling happy again. You have no idea how much you mean to me and i couldn't imagine the world without such an amazing soul like you. You inspire all of us to be strong and to persevere when things get tough. I'm so happy the world has given us such an amazing person and i love you so much

[@gdelprete]

i'm so glad you're doing better now! stay strong. love you vic :)

[@RaphaelGarcia]

We are entirely happy to know that you've fought through it all! We're all proud of you and we are always rooting you on!

[@mckeifus]

I've been stuck in bed for months bro I know where you were at. Sad to see you retired you were sick! GL with what's next.

[@lowrdjdm]

thankyou victor. For sharing with us and letting us in on what you've been going through. That takes a lot. You are brave, strong and very talented. Things will only go up from here. I am so happy that things are starting to turn around for you. Because you deserve it. You are such an inspiration to me. Sending love from texas.

[@itsdannyftw]

I love you man.

[@avpdiaries]

Love you

[@kityzsRULE]

Thank you

[@NoirKittie]

Victor, I can say I feel you, because I myself have gone through tough times. As individuals we all have. But at the end of the day, with all that we experience, as long as we know how to pick ourselves up and remain optimistic, that's all that matters. Of course know that you're not alone. It helps to have a good support group. Don't you think so?

[@forcefactor13]

Wow. Thanks, man.

[@Beautyxinxsorrow]

Ahh Victor that's really touching what did u write here. I'm really happy that u r back and u know actually that u inspire a lot of people who watch your channel. :) I hope u r good and keep going! I believe in u.. since I'm freaking optimistic and I think that if you believe in something and really want it then it will come true! ^^ I love you! Greetings from Poland. :3

[@surkilee]

hi victor! thanks for sharing the video and your experiences with us :) just want to encourage you tonight that there is hope and better things are only yet to come! we love you and are so thankful for your artistry and openness and the love that you show us! keep on fighting the battle and don't give up! there is light at the end of the tunnel! :)

[@Quietstorm_1010]

Very inspirational thanks for sharing

[@Syk0ticRhythm]

I'm very glad things are starting to look up for you. You're a wonderful person, and I hope that your life continues to climb upwards. :)

[@trubadix8349]

first i didnt get over it that you had depressions because you are one of my biggest inspirations at dancing. I though your life couldn't be better than it seems really perfect. Actually i dont know really if there is a reason or if it's stress and fear but my way to get over it is about taking a break recalm myself and think forward to the next good step i am doing. I always be behind you even if my comment is about 1-2 years afther this video.

[@elise8116]

Idk why but I really like this video.

[@UberLegume]

Wait, is this new footage? Cause if it is, man Victor, you still got it strong! Inspirational as always.

[@indirarivas16]

I'm glad you are back, I was wondering where you were and now I see what the reason was. I missed your videos, I'm so sorry that you lived moments like that but God is always faithful you only need to trust him and put everything in His hands, if you want to be healed completely go to Him, give HIm your life, accept HIm as your savior and He will give you salvation, eternal life and you will feel more loved than ever. That depression will go away permanently and will never come back know that. God is the only who can give you peace of mind. I don't know if you are going to read this message but I hope you do. Stay strong, humble and don't loose hope NEVER. I'll be praying for you. God Bless

[@DeenaElDesuky]

wow victor.. we didn't know. stay strong♡

[@caligirl8185]

"Please don't expect me to always be good and kind and loving. There are times when I will be cold and thoughtless and hard to understand" -Sylvia Plath. We've all been there. But some are just more resilient than others. I think suicide is the most selfish thing a person could do. To think you would leave this world and not think or care about the damage and hurt you will be causing others.... Even more heartbreaking, that a person could reach to that point, feel that dark and alone and feel they are out of options..... Life's a bish, man.

[@eliottagbodjan7801]
