[@heatherk4734]

Please know, or be reassured, that you are indeed saving lives out here my friend! Simply by being a friend to absolute strangers. It’s difficult to make people in our lives understand what we feel SO deeply but can’t seem to articulate into anything relatable to them. I appreciate hearing your perspective and your heart. Thank you for being a great human being 🌸

How you have improved- Keep your chin up !!

[@Poop-pd9tg]

I think it’s because we feel lonely in our minds and we feel like we either still don’t know our true self or that your friends or other people you know don’t know or understand you deep inside enough to the level you desire. It’s also a bit of boredom, lack of feeling safe and loved and feeling unsatisfied with everything because we don’t feel the intensity of love we want. But I think the only way is to lower our expectations, live with gratitude and keep exploring. Another thing is maybe your friends and family don’t talk to you in the same intellectual way. Maybe you want to talk about the universe, more abstract, more philosophical and theories about anything such as life, certain events that happened etc. Which sparks thinking rather than the talks about mundane topics but what I learned is to not care so much and enjoy the time with your friends. If you don’t have any, I know how it feels, I only have two friends and I see other people with social activities all the time and I’m just at home alone with my parents all the time and it makes me feel like I’m unloved especially when I’m not with my friends, but it’s okay, just pray. I just graduated from University and I noticed that I began to have developed this void from time to time in my heart and it’s honestly scary, I would feel empty, bored and don’t enjoy anything at all, usually I don’t know if it’s because I feel lonely and miss my two best friends or my intuition is telling me to aim for something bigger or I need to change.

[@loribarton3712]

Scott. It is so great that you are sharing your story. I am a Psychologist. I feel like I connect with people who are struggling, suffering even because I have been through depression, trauma and anxiety. All still come and go but I accept this is just life, my life. I do not fight it or run anymore. I wrap up in my feelings whatever they may be at any given time. I, for sure prefer happy, fun, joy and deep peace. They come and go too. But everything belongs. I'm less afraid of the un-preferred emotions. I believe I am better for all my experiences. You are courageous and a warrior in a world that blames and shames a person for not being or appearing happy all the time. God Bless You!!!!

[@aimeegill4485]

you're putting words to the unspeakable thoughts of my soul

[@chrisminch675]

Scott, I speak for many people when I say "We Love You". Thanks for the years of helping us all feel a little better a lot of the time. God Bless You!

[@rachaeladams7279]

Thank you for being so comforting and compassionate. Needed this kindness right now as I’m struggling with unaliving thoughts.

[@ocrodger]

.... Sometimes in life you diagnosed with a disease, Parkinson's feature's, that tears your world apart... And brings about depression and anxiety. Life is not fair. I guess I just have to deal with life the way it is right now. Sure wish things were different. I guess that's called wishful thinking right? Thank you Scott. I too cry.

[@YasLove111]

Back again Scott. I come back here every time I am in crisis. It’s like a stab in the chest, I feel frozen but this time is different. This time I am choosing to let go of control. I am choosing to accept myself. I know that things will work out for me and I pray for all of you. Life can be absolutely brutal but you are strong enough, you can do this, even if in this moment you feel like you don’t. You are not alone my friend. Darkness does not last forever and I am sending love to you. Please be kind to yourself❤

[@VanessaSimon26]

Yes @ YasLove111 Crisis

I’m so grateful that I didn’t stop searching for the message I desperately needed to hear. This message. And the one on feeling lost. Your messages are life saving. Very deep thank you!

[@kristieedwards4169]

Hi Scott, I asked spirit what I needed to know and here I am seeing you. I am going through a massive change in my life. This change started 2020. During my anger, frustration, humiliation, fear, self loathing, depression and grief to name just a few emotions, I was introduced to a wonderful analogy. When you're waiting, it's like spirit planting you for a new journey. Just like a seed that lives in the dark, in time it will grow big enough to push through and into the sun. I'm at the new plant phase. I've reached big enough to see the sun. Now I am growing into the plant of this new journey. Getting bigger and stronger. I've learnt the lesson, it is happening for me and not too me. I understand what was no longer in my best interest has now been removed. I didn't pay attention to the sign posts spirits gave. So I ended in a dark night of the soul. A journey that has taken 3 years to find the sun. That's ok, I'm ok that it did. I've learnt a lot about myself, my loves, hopes, desires, needs and wants, and embracing who I am. I no longer feel the debilitating feelings I did in the beginning. I'm in a better job, I have work life balance. I'm selling my house and looking forward to a new journey for my daughters and I. You still seem to be struggling with the why of depression. Have you looked at what brings you joy? Are you doing more of that? Following intuition? Clearly from today's video, you're able to channel. Maybe it's time to explore more of your spiritual gifts. 🧡✨️🌈⚘️

[@nicoloclemente6564]

[@visionvixxen]

I want this. Still sort of trapped.

[@nicoloclemente6564]

@@visionvixxen you are just trapped in your limiting beliefs.💕

[@kristieedwards4169]

@visionvixxen I was stuck through 2021 and 2022. I get it. Take a moment to breath. When you get an intuitive hit to go for a walk, follow it. When your body says I need rest, follow it. Take notice of signs around you. I see signs through my day. I say thank you for repeating numbers. I got a music symbol in cotton in my laundry. Since 2020, I have never seen so many rainbows. Attitude of gratitude. You've got this 🧡✨️⚘️

[@israahmad1981]

We need your cover of the song on spotify. Keep singing, you have an amazing voice

[@greenapplegirl6018]

In a world that encourages you to use your pain to "self-develop," it's hard to feel like anyone sits with the pain but rather runs. I've done that many times, with great success, but this time I couldn't run or "self-develop" out of it. This is the first video that felt like a breath of fresh air after drowning. So thank you for that, you are worth more than gold.

[@Earthtime3978]

Being broke with no way out is real depression. Not really fixable.

[@ditaitaita]

i feel like the universe guided me to your page. thank u

[@YasLove111]

Thank you for this. I feel so scared and lonely right now. I feel completely trapped. It is so hard, anyone who is going through this I am so so sorry. Please try to be kind to yourself. I have returned to this video so many times over the past 6 months when I feel like I am on the edge. I hope one day I won’t have to return here again. I will never forget your kindness, one of the only things getting me through.

[@gaiamosconi5602]

Your voice and your words are so soothing. Thanks for your work and for sharing your soul and your personal experiences with the world. So appreciated! I am going through depression caused by many things which I do understand but still, the sadness and the depression just don't lift. I am learning and growing with your channel. Thank you

[@greeninca]

It’s beautiful that even though you’re still going through it, you still benefit our lives with your support. We need that kind of connection. I truly hope you find yourself one year not having had any depression all year. I want you to be well. Yet, while you’re here in the trenches with us, fighting this war with depression while at the same time just accepting it and allowing healing, we are grateful for you

[@melanieknight6597]

It’s hard to hear people say to reach out if you need help, or expect the depressed person to take action. That can’t always happen! I feel like it could be related to someone that’s in critical care at a hospital. Would you expect that person to get out of bed and come to you, or take actions to help themselves?? Of course not, cause you can SEE their injuries, or that they are in a critical health situation! What you would do, is everything you can to support them and take action in their behalf! Well, depression is like being in critical care bed of your mind! That’s how it makes me feel anyway….and I literally have no support from anyone in my life…I just do the best I can, and very much appreciate people like you who share your experiences on KZbin. It really does help more than you’ll ever know ❤️

[@Pilotcsilla]

You are so beautiful. I wish I had a friend like you. I’m hanging on by a thread, feeling like I can’t go on. Thank you for your time in recording this. ❤

Hi Guys i have suffered from depression too for like over 1 and a half year during 2018 to 2019.I can still imagine that how bad and worst time that was,i was on the brink of emotional collapse, couldn't sleep, left job, doesn't wanted to go outside,constant negative thoughts, panic attacks, sadness, suicidal thoughts to etc.I had tried so many counseling sessions, mindfulness,yoga but nothing doesn't seem to work. My turning point was when i went to a very good psychiatrist and he prescribed me the exact medicine which i needed in that time after suffering so much but that was a little slow progress towards normal life. I decided to push myself as hard as i can,First and biggest thing that i started was turning myself to my God,started praying regularly which brought massive peace of mind inside me. I started going for jogging and gym which was extremely difficult thing to do but there was no option left for me honestly,was literally crying while exercise but didn't lose hope coz i knew that it is the way to peace and life. The last and final thing was to start going to work and it was like pushing a mountain with one hand but hung in there for my betterment. Now for last 2 years no medicines,no panic attacks,no anxiety,no sadness etc nothing,Yes i still have some bad days like once in a 2,3 months but i guess that's totally normal as this happens with everyone. My massage is to Pray God (Allah) five times a day which is a key,Stay active,Work or go to job u can stay focused and stay away from bad thoughts,do most difficult tasks that makes u more stronger mentally and emotionally.If someone needs any guidance i am available to help,thanks

[@ladyatura6337]

Thank you for this. Just found your channel as I suffer through my second major depressive episode in my 38 years. It is awful. I had to make a major life decision that was the most heartbreaking and difficult decision of my life. I do not know how to navigate this, and I appreciate people like you being here for so many of us who need to hear this. ❤

[@lina-sg6pw]

Now days almost every one is busy to spare time to listen to you. Also I have been depressed and anxious for so long that now I feel I'm just going to be irritating people by talking to them about my problems. Finally I have come across your videos. I feel like someone is listening. Thank you very much

[@Bahutpaisaamerahochuka]

Have u spoken to urself looking in a mirror. I know it sounds weird See I have nobody to talk to..am alone from 2005.. So what I do is take a mirror sit by myself all alone in my room...and talk looking into my eyes as if I am talking to someone else If I smile..looking at myself I appreciate my own smile. If I cry ...I cry out loud looking at myself without judging..and after crying I see my relaxed face again with a smile. This goes on.... Life goes on Without u knowing it. Depression is deep suppression. So let it come out. As u let everything excess comes out of ur body..different things.. One needs to let (e)nergy in motions (e-motions) come out. Otherwise u bring trouble to ur own self in the form if disease. Dis-ease lack of ease.

[@S33J-o5w]

I cant believe someone like you exists you literally have saved my life and helped me see sense again, i am not good at comforting myself with reality/words it feels like the parenting i hadnt recievee in the form of a true friend to any lost soul, you hsve an abundance of angelic karma headed your way this is something i have never really had, i now have my head back in the game of at least recalibrating and having a rope thrown down a deep dark hole, i cant give you the words you deserve for being who you are but i fucking love you bro, angels walking the earth in disguise, no coincidence ❤🫡🫂 so much love and respect ♾️✊️🤲🤝💪❤

Scott, your video was heaven sent to me today. I too suffer with depression and I loved your analogy with the keys. I used to switch and change my life in order to leave my depression behind. But now I am older and with responsibility to my children, husband and my beloved animals, I can no longer choose a key to escape my thoughts at my convenience. Yes, I agree entirely, we need to stop, stop doing and stop running away. We must rest and wait for time to recover our strength instead of trying harder and harder. Thank you so very much.

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my KZbin channel 8 months ago about self development. Now I have 936 subs and > 800 hours of watch time.

Just seeing this in August of 2023. What you're describing is a Dark Night of the Soul. Ive been "going through" the Dark Night for over a year now...maybe longer. Toughest time of my 57 years here on earth. No words can describe that experience. I just wake up everyday and walk into the day regardless of everything in my being crying for some kind of relief. No light at the end of the tunnel. It's exhausting to say the least.
