SENDING PRAYERS OF STRENGTH & HOPE & TO YOU DEBORA.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING YR STORY. 🌸🙏🏼🌸
This dude is quite an inspiration.
My wife was severely depressed when our two sons were very small and she was going through a deep dark hell. she was in this state for a handful of years and it was so heartbreaking to see her struggle. I felt helpless to help her.
I just hung in there with her and did everything I could for her and that was all that I could do. If you know someone who is going through this, please don’t give up on them. Let them know that you’re there for them and how very much you love them. because even though it doesn’t seem like it at the time , they understand it and they need it. So many people have walked away from somebody with a serious depression and that’s the last thing you should do. It’s a struggle. It’s painful and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemies.
We were in our 20s when this horrible disease overtook her and we are now in our 60s and we love each other more and more every day. So please don’t give up on somebody you love because they are going through this they need you at this time more than ever.
Russell! Thank You For Sharing Your Struggle with depression and spreading your joy with your Dancing! You’ve made a difference in many of my dark days. I am also a dancer - it’s kept me alive.
When I was younger, I thought some people's unrealistic hopes were foolish, but I've learned that hope is a key belief and value. The greatest speeches are ones that include hope. Butler is a warrior!
Some of the people who seem the happiest are some of the most depressed people, they just choose to bring light to the life of others and be a support to others so hopefully they don’t have the same struggles as they do.
That’s so hard….when you have dealt with it or had a family member who has it, your eyes are opened so much. Just heartbreaking. I’m happy this man can have an outlet for his.
I'm sorry for the loss of your friend. Depression is multi generational in my family. One thing you say is spot on, Seek help.
Bless his heart. I have battle depression for years. I need to start dancing with myself in private feeling happy. It is hard to do in the depressing world in which we live in. Stop watching the evening news or any news on television helps with the depression. 🙏🙏🙏
Keep up the amazing work bringing hope and joy into people's lives.
God bless you, Russell! I'm 65 and just now receiving help with my debilitating depression. You just brightened my day, young man. If you are ever in northern AZ look us up!
My own depression/anxiety is held at bay with my mantra: "Despair is a lie". I've survived, with nagging ideation, by developing a dark sense of humor. Now, at 76, I am almost completely alone, with all but one of my dear friends gone. I do have a little canine companion who keeps me on the planet. I promised him as good a life as I can provide. I MUST keep that promise.
I love this video - this guy 'gets it.'
I ADORE him❤❤
He’s living a life!❤
Having worked at UPS for 41 years and soon to be retiring I will just say that leaving this job is a huge step for me to reduce the anxiety and too often feelings of depression I have had for a very long time. The harassment at this company from management is over the top.
You'll be fine. You've accomplished a lot & I believe that's the tip of what can be. Figure your next move & keep kickin' butt. Peace.
You guys make over $100K per year delivering stuff. Don't complain.
@@dobees8183less than Robin Williams made.
@@dobees8183 You're obviously missing the reality of depression. "...to lose someone he thought had _everything_ _going_ _for_ _him."_ Poor people, middle income people _and_ rich people suffer from depression. And when you work in a toxic environment, no amount of money can take away the stress, anxiety and depression. And whatever your pay is, there's always someone who makes less that could tell you that you make plenty of money.
Stop whining. This is why migrants are needed to work here. They don’t complain like you.
What a sweet and kind person to spread the hope.
Keep moving Russell! You are an inspiration. Sending prayers and greetings from South Africa.
Keep your head up and keep dancing whatever helps.
It's so great he spreads joy. But also so glad he is sharing his story. 😊
What a good guy. I would love to see him delivering my packages. UPS has a great asset
thank you for your strength in sharing your stories. it takes nerve to be that brave - to break the silence and fight the stigma.
Thankful for GOD is the answer....great job sir!
God bless you, big bro! 🩵🫂 Thankful you're still here, dancing, getting the help you need, and maintaining hope! You absolutely are in my prayers. As are all those struggling with depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. You're not alone. 🌺
This guy is so much fun to see in videos! I hope he knows how valuable he is by spreading positivity!
I also hope my son sees his videos and message!
I may not know what to say nor how to help, but I can always listen and pray!!! 🧡
Glad to find out that though he has a debilitating issue, he has decided to handle it with grace and humor and dancing. An inspiration to millions of others.Good on him!
He makes so many happy with his fabulous moves.God bless.
Common thread is sense of humor. Known fact is while clowning and making others laugh, so often it’s us who are suffering from depression or the such.. Thank you Russell for sharing your story! It helps us understand that we’re not alone in this journey to strive to be a better me. Sorry about the loss of your good friend..
We don’t get thru this life unscathed. Life can be hard. It can also be joyful. Being able to talk about it - is definitely helpful. Thank you for sharing this story. 😌✨♥️✨🇨🇦✨🙏🏼✨🌎

May your friend Rest In Peace 🕊️. You're right--the problem never goes away. But you can't stop dealing with it.

Lost someone special to me through severe depression. Even after so many years, it still cuts like a knife.
Brother, when you accept that you suffer from depression, you have to look at that as the cure
You go Russell!!!
, I'm glad you are still here, dude.
Amen I can agree with him, never give up.
Minute to minute, day to day Russell, I feel your pain. God bless him.
Dear Russel, try changing your food. No more food with additives, and no more mixed meat like sausages. Only steak, vegetables, own made sauces and try for 4 weeks. It healed me.
What a wonderful man ! I wish him the very best😊
Get your groove on and thank you for your honesty❣️
Love you dancing, God bless
Keep on dancing! ❤😊
He is a good dancer, fun to watch
You are amazing! Creating joy for others is a sure fire way to create joy for yourself. Keep it up!
I will definitely seek out his book. I’m sure it will go Amazon soon. And maybe he will be personally delivering his own book to many people
Thanks Russell !!!!
Hugely hugely beneficial to everyone young and old ~~|
Men especially need to be this in touch with hope and honesty .
It’s not weak to talk about our weaknesses guys !! It’s the opposite ~ it’s healthy and wise and necessary
Break free of any stereotypes that say or demonstrate the opposite ~
Thanks man for using your platform and your voice to inspire honesty !!!
That is being brave, felt and get up, I am sure a very valuable message for many

I'm praying for all those who are suffering. I remember what a friend said to me awhile ago and that is....suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Every life is precious. Peace and love to all.🙏❤️
