Hey Joe it's a shame you forgot your old friends that where there at the start of your journey when we where at school and you started coronation street. I'd tried to contact you when I've been struggling with mental health for a catch up

Thank you both, so very much❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Wow, same age as him and I feel the same way... Never heard someone who have the same way of thinkinh, or livin than myself before

thank you joe for speaking about it,,im 68 now and ive been like it since a little girl,,some days its so hard ,then others abit better .i always say i would love to feel normal,,,but what is normal x

Love this guy, just finished Brassic best thing iv'e ever watched.

This is England ❤" forgiveness is fucking underrated milk "

Joe you gave me the inspiration to accept and get a diagnosis. I was diagnosed with BPD just before I was 50. Having that answer as to why I am, and how I react to situations has been invaluable. I truly believe you saved my life. You are an amazing man and should always ALWAYS be proud of that. THANK YOU XXXX

it does help Joe, be sure of that. A wonderful human indeed.

What a fucking great fella

Flawed but kind hearted and honest the next generation should listen to joe

Man I can relate.

th-cam.com/video/-Nd40Uy6tbQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=tbCHvCcELgt84WII Everything that we experience is valid and true. To be labelled as dysfunctional is to be conditioned to think that our experiences are not 'normal'. Our natural human reaction to trauma is to adapt, and it is those behavioural adaptations that are dysfunctional at times, not our being. Keep on living beautiful brothers and sisters, adjust your behaviour as u see fit and as and when you're able to do so 💚🙏🕉️ xx

I've only just come across this. It's amazing to hear from someone that I absolutely look up to, one of the people that I got interested in acting because of, basically tell me that I'm not as much of an outlier as I so often feel. Thank you so much!

This is such a great interview, i love his honesty and just being himself. I dont know how it came up in my feed but am glad it did. Good to see someone thats famous and been successful talking about mental health issues like this. He is great

This was so good, thanks for making it happen ❤ Sometimes I feel like getting help, but then I find so much more comfort in the words of genuine people. I tried getting help for my head a few times over my life but nothing in the system seems to work, the most recent during Covid was great. I had a few phone calls with a therapist and his advice was to talk to a an imaginary parrot on my shoulder about my problems. Madness really, made me so mad haha Anyway we ride the ups and downs, and take each day as it comes. The world is full of kind people, you just have to show them you are too ❤

I can't even begin to describe how much I relate to Joe. Id love to meet this fella and just have a pint or something. Top bloke.

Joe is the male version of me, physically and psychologically

This hits home so hard for me. I have bipolar and BPD it's been a constant struggle especially bc I'm a mom of 3 daughters. Unfortunately I wasn't diagnosed until mid - late 20s after my kids. And when my youngest was 11yrs old she tried to commit suicide. I knew she was depressed she was seeing a doctor and they couldn't tell it was coming and either did I. She's almost 17 now and doing great sadly they think she has bipolar and it breaks my heart that I did that to her

Been struggling of late n just happened to give Brassic a do on Netflix which has reignited my Joseph Gilgun hetero lad crush, being a fellow mid 30s Lancashire divvy depressive who grew up round reprobates n lushes in an orrible skint mill town I feel a lot in common with him. He’s a good en n this was very charmin. hopefully I pass my piss test tomo. Ta

Woo so thought he was so relatable. And now I know why .total respect talking bout metal health .excellant colourful charterer. Heart of gold humble .❤

'Your fucking hard work' struck a cord. That's how I feel with my over active mind every day.

Absolutely love this interview, he is so real, candid, authentic and genuine.

Joe is my spirit animal. I absolutely feel less wretched because he exists. I am so utterly in love with this man.

Joe gilgun you are the younger me pretty much. I have BPD and dyslexia I’m almost 50. I struggled all my life. I don’t like to be around people I like to be on my own most of the time.

I needed this

So thankful to Joe & Edith for this interview. I've been fucking with depression for a few years now, those are the words that all of us needed. I've never related to anyone more than to Joe. Wholeheartedly admire all the honesty and simple truth from this lad. I wish in our world nowadays would be more people like him, more kindness, more love❤ I wanna hug everyone, who's struggling here. We're not alone, guys. Sending love to y'all from Russia❤

Guy was simply sublime in Lockout (2012) and The Infiltrator (2016), among other stellar performances

This is such an amazing interview. Thank you

What a lovely interview with a fascinating man. I have my own problems and today is not a great day, but this really helped me. Thank you.

Thank you both I needed that & am sure I’m not alone.

You’re alright Joe it’s taken me till 40 to come to form some form of acceptance. Spent years bitching about been dealt a bad hand now I’m just working on how to play the cards I’ve been dealt. Thanks for been you 🤛

I got diagnosed with ADHD now, at 37. I've been living with my thoughts pinballing in my brain for nearly 4 decades, moods swinging like crazy, absurd impulsive decisions (i'm covered in tatts, and one REALLY SUCKS but it was the spur of the moment, heh) and abrasive anger, and self destructive attitude that i don't even perceive as such, literal panic everytime the phone rings 'cause I don't know what the person on the other side was, or could want (i still ask everyone to message me instead of calling) and it scares me. I forgot 17 whole months of my life cause i had a huge breakdown and can't remember a single thing, only that i'm still scared of my couch 'cause I know i spent most of my time vegetating there (just imagine a 37 YO scared of a damn couch). I'm the "smart kid that doesn't apply to her studies", like many kids are, and I still have to learn on my own a fuc*load of things like what a BPD reaction is , or why the heck I spent last morning crying my eyes out while asking myself why the heck I was crying my eyes out. We need information, we need actual diagnosis and we need to understand that getting through daily life with a brain that's constantly trying to sabotage you is a fucking nightmare, so we're not weak at all, and maybe we're not that broken either, it's just that what surrounds us is often too...rigid? Is this the right word? Not adaptable? I don't know. And now i gotta feed the cat or that gremlin's gonna eat me for dinner, also sorry for any mistake but English ain't my first language.

That was an excellent watch x

Speaking as somebody with BPD who has a mum with BPD and also a sister with BPD for years I've been searching to find somebody who would understand me I gave up hope and then boom JOE GILGUN!!!! If I had a way to say thank you to you I would. I've always wanted to be an actor but thought there's no way as I can be so anti social but after watching you I've actually enrolled in uni.....all thanks to you. You're a very remarkable human being thank you so much for being so vulnerable and honest x

So many kids who mess about at school are neuro diverse. I've met many kids labelled disruptive who actually have adhd or autism. One kid couldn't read or write but when I asked him to tell me a story he had the most amazing imagination.

Just one question… why have sofas if your not going to use them ?

Wow😮 Joe, I share your BPD and ADHD. Suffered for years and diagnosed at 52. You describe your experience of life and others exactly as I see it. I’ve been a mental health professional but I’d feel it would be impactful to show my kids this video and then chat about it. Thank you 🙏 and yes it’s a fight

Joe is an amazing actor and person love watching him in what ever he stars in I hope they keep brassic going for many more year's to come I would love to have a part in it much love brother ❤️

The more I listen and see Joe, the more I understand that I want to be close to him, love and support him! But I don’t understand at all how to find it......

Absolutely love Joe gilgun and his honesty. Wish there were more humans in the World like this..... ❤

That guy, sitting on the floor of his house to receive an invited, full of tatoos, with a cap indoors, is a specialist in mental health? Are you kidding?

Joe the best 👍

I fucking love Joe Gilgun.

Joe ❤ I could talk to you for hours. We’d do each other’s heads in 😂 You have explained everything I feel and have felt to a T. And I single parent fulltime… it is HARD with this crazy head of mine. Loving your work ❤

amazing video love from canada

Humans are just a long chain of people that have no idea how and why they feel something, do something. We're all fugged up in different ways.

Absolutely loved this

Listened to every word - I just luv Joe, he’s honest and open. Great insight, thank you ❤

He’s an actual guru .. what the fuck ..

He is incredible , thank gosh he exists .. most authentic person next to myself I’ve ever seen
