how I understand that saying, is that meeting new people cause conflicts to the ones you have now (old friends) idk like it conflicts with everything, other's getting jealous, no time to hangout with others, but that's how I understand it. There's a deeper say or meaning, I just cant seem to find the words.
I’m the first person in the video. Thank you all for your kind words and thank you Thoraya for allowing me to share something so meaningful with my friends :) You’re all truly special humans
When i found my wife hanging by a rope leaving me with our 15month old son. The fact she left us broke me, but our son has kept me going. Love you always Katie xx
I was happy before I got into high school and college. 🤦 But overall, life is full of challenges and it's just the beginning for me. I'm not ready to confront what is worse..
This shows how diffrent situations can impact people harder than others, so don't say things like "other people have it worse", just be there to give support
I just talked to my older sister about this yesterday. We both have chronic genetic health problems, and she said, "I just remind myself someone always has it worse" & I told her that I hate that saying, because each person's pain is fully individual, and to say someone has it worse, though it may technically be right, invalidates the individual's struggle. ✌️
I hate that people compare there issue, like "You don't need to be upset". "stop overreacting" Like I'm no. People have there own problems some people can be upset about little things. Like the person who's dog died, that one simple thing, triggered so many other larger things in her mind. So don't give people shit.
Last year, I lost my job and my husband confessed he was having an affair and ending the marriage in the same week. Then I lost my home when I had to move back to the USA two days after the breakup. As a result, I lost my perceived future, my identity, my sense of self worth. I felt like I lost everything and I wasn’t going to make it through alive because all I felt was despair. To anyone reading this and struggling, you can get through this. Half the battle is showing up and you can do it.
"Half the battle is showing up" I'm sure you aren't the first person to come up with this sentence, but reading this from you right now really struck a cord with me. Thank you. I hope you're having a wonderful year, and if not, just remember that you can do it.
I wish *talked to someone* and told them I needed help instead of being anxious and wondering why im feeling down for years 😕 I could have done do much during that time.
I was 14 when I was first diagnosed with a cancer called Rhabdomyosarcoma. I ended up going through a very traumatic experience, ending up with my left breast being taken. It was upsetting, but I stayed strong. But in December of 2018, my grandma passed away on the 30th, this was the most devastating day of my life. My grandma was alway there for me when I was in the hospital and she would cook for me. She was my whole inspiration to finish out strong, but once she left, I just felt like I couldn’t do it anymore, I was sad that she wasn’t there to see me ring the bell when I finished my chemo cycles. I’m 16, about to be 17 and I accomplished so much. I promised her at her funeral that I would finish school and go to college to become an oncologist.
Hi, I just wanted to say, keep going. Im as old as you were when you wrote this, and the grandma part really hit home. I hope you fully recover and live the most fulfilling life you can, how you want it. I know whats what my grandma would want for me, and I think yours for you as well❤
When my husband of 33 years told me out of the blue that he was leaving and didn’t love me anymore. No explanation, I thought we were best friends and he told me he was pretending to love me. The pain was so great that I thought it wouldn’t end. I actually thought of ending my life, just to end the pain.
@@Todiisms I'm trully blessed to come across with strong optimistic individuals like you who choose to Rise above trying occasions. I send you love and blessings 💝💕
The most important part of this video is how everyone eventually overcame the difficult times they were passing through. For everyone watching this video, we can be the same, so promise to never give up on yourself.
I think one of the points of the video is exactly that... those that did give up aren’t here anymore which obviously emphasises how important it is to help others around us x
Yes, I reflect on myself while I watch them. Like right now, this is the most difficult time in my life. Have been giving up on school for 2-3 years. So tough to force myself to keep going.
The woman that recieved help from a homeless guy got me emotional.. When someone living in the streets, barely have something to eat or to wear, come to you and ask you if you're okay and if you need help, shows that there is still humanity in people. Thank you for these videos! It makes us see that people are going through more than us. But also not to judge others and be kind to one another. Because one sweet word can make someone's day better ❤
I wanted to end my life tonight. This video saved mine. Thank you all for your strength and I am so glad you are here. Thank you for this video. I am forever grateful.
@@Kimberlyelayyne We need your beautiful soul on this planet!!! YOU are not alone, you are worthy and beautiful😗. One day u will look back at this painful period in your life with tremendous wisdom and strength 💋❤
SHE IS SO BEAUTIFUL! Weird as heck. But, I have never seen someone with a manner like her! She held her chin up, but not at all in a proud way. I don't even know what to call it other than graceful ♡
@@mintbutterfly10 yeah, some how I was kinda drawn to her story and her character.. She is a soldier, hope all the people get through their trail & tribulations in one piece..
6:55 I totally can understand this "window" concept. I've always felt like I was outside of a window, looking in. And I'm seeing people part of something wonderful, and I don't know what it is and I can't be a part of it...
Me too. It is horrible. I struggled for years and years but everything ended when I turned to God. I wish everyone that experiences this hell (because it is hell) to experience the healing love of God. Now I still have a lot of downs but deep inside me I know that God is always there and when I truly stop being angry at Him He never lets me down. I hope that you don't see this comment as an attempt to convince you of anything but as a testimony of what healed me and got me out of this mess. Peace
So true! A smile, eye contact, and just asking someone how they're doing can change their day! And for the girl towards the end of the episode it changed her life.
Sonder: the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own. This question was suggested by @M Spears - a special thanks to to them!!
Thoraya Maronesy you’re so kind and compassionate! You teach me to not judge and to consider others people’s reactions because they’re probably going through something different!
This is insane how cheerful and smiling all these people are when talking about their darkest times, it just seems surreal. This truly proves the fact that we don't want to die to end life, we want to end the unbearable pain within ourselves.
Speak up to whom? It is not like people actually care. Like when someone ask you how you doing. They don't really want to know...so I see no point in speaking up. 😧. Just my opinion
@@See-if_I_care its not that people don't care ...its that people don't know you are hurting. Keep speaking and you will find one or many that care enough to listen and help.
@@bosirefaith371 In my experience it's just best to keep quiet and deal with the issue myself. My way of avoiding judgement, pity or even recentment from others
In the span of a month I was robbed at gun point for $425, my guinea pig of 3 years died two days later in my arms, my uncle died, and I was diagnosed with PTSD... There has never been a lower point in my life than that... I didn't want to go on and some days it's really really hard to keep going on but honestly the only thing that keeps me here is no one will take care of my new guineas if I were to die...
Alexandria Coates Being robbed at gun point must have been so terrifying! And I’m sorry your uncle and your pet died :( I think the same thing about my little shitzu, she needs me so I can’t give up. I hope you are better and getting through it!
I hope you'll find some more reasons to stay here. I wish you find happiness in this life. I wish you love, beautiful people and that you can laugh everyday. You deserve it. Take good care of yourself ❤
Please stay... I am truly sorry for what you went through... But try to stay alive and try your best... You don't have to always be alright... But please try to see the light... If the light is your guinea pig... Then well may it be so... i hope you will find many others... Or already did
I've struggles with depression and self-harm and suicidal thoughts for a long time and this video brings me so much hope when I watch it. I'm now 8 months clean of cutting, and even though it's hard, I'll get though this!! And to anyone else struggling, we'll get through this together.
I’m almost 60 years old and really appreciate these videos. I’d like to see more older adults answer your questions. Especially questions like this particular video.
I’ve tried to quit life several times because I’m diagnosed with severe depression and borderline and complex PTSD. I’ve had severe traumas in my life and I wish I had friends like the first girl. Sending love to everyone.
"Looking back on memories is like looking through a window and you steel appreciate the things and the people that were there but you're not on the other side of that window anymore." 100% real .. 06:40
I've seen this video before, but I watched it again last night when I was getting into a dark place while reflecting on how lonely I was at this time last year, and that quote really hit me. I'm not in that space anymore and I'm not lonely for the first time in years, so it was just tough to look back on that. But that's all I'm doing: looking at it, not feeling it. It's not in my life anymore, but I can reflect back on it and I'm going to talk about how I felt at that time with my best friend to bring me more closure. You just never know how your life will change and how much it will change. I never expected to feel loved and not lonely last year, but I made it out. I'm not lonely anymore.
you have such a gift. people aren’t this vulnerable around strangers in every day life. YOU are the reason that they feel comfortable enough to open up like this, you are such a pure soul
I love the description of her friends "you are so warm and bright light". That's the description of someone who lifts you during hard times. But jeez these answers are dark :/
When I was 15 I was homeless. I had no family, no one to help me,no one to lean on but myself. At that point I wanted to give up but 20 years later I'm still here. As hard as it life gets, it does get better.
I wanted to give up after my mom and dad passed away while I was in the middle of severe active drug addiction. I lost everything...my job, car, house, belongings, my family.. everything. Almost my life when I overdosed in 2016. I still couldn't stop so I wanted to give up and accepted the fact that I would die that way. I managed to get into a long term program...I have been clean for 2 years now and also welcomed my 1st child last year. My family might've been taken from me but I got something back, my son...and my life♡ I'm so glad I didn't give up or I would've never experienced sobriety or being a mother. Thank you for sharing this. I hope anyone reading this never gives up during a hard time. *This too shall pass* are words I live by during hard times. Just keep on pushing though it...and it will be worth it♡
I don't remember the last time i didn't feel like giving up to be honest. Edit: I've been crying all day because of your answers. I want to thank every single person who took the time out of their day to encourage me to keep going. Just know that you all make this world a better place. Thank you so much. Edit: I see every answer and please know that I am so thankful, even if i don't reply. Thank you so much. I hope life treats you all well. I love you. Edit: I posted this 9 months ago and people STILL comment and try to uplift me. I'm in tears rn because 2020 has been a sh%t year for all of us - but you guys and your comments restore my faith in humanity. There is still days where I feel like giving up and I think that there will always be days where I feel completely hopeless but once corona-lockdown lifts I will seek professional help. I know that I am not the only one who feels this hopeless and lost and I really wanna urge you all to please talk to someone. Seek help if you need it, because your life matters to me. It matters to a lot of people. Please take care, i love you so much. Thank you everyone. You and your kind comments keep me going.
please don't give up. you deserve everything you ever wish for. i really really hope you'll be better soon, remember there's ALWAYS people who love you and who care about you. keep going, you can do it
I’ve never struggled with my mental health but recently I’m feeling so low and my thoughts are getting darker, I can’t believe how many of these people have felt like giving up too
I guess basically everybody knows how it feels to a certain degree... But the fact that you realize it is good for you... You can still work against it... I truly believe that you can make it through it... So please dont give up and remember that whatever causes those thoughts does not change the fact that you are a perfectly fine human being
Imagine living a life where you are always scared. Scared of losing people, scared of not being good enough, scared of the future, scared of having no purpose....just scared of being alive in general. Imagine being me.
Everyone is scared of something but we have to look beyond our fears. Fearing of future and not being good enough will not make you the person you wanted to be. Have faith that everything will work for you.❤
My solution is apathy. Can't lose people if you don't get close to them, can't be scared of not being good enough if you never try to measure up, can't be scared of a future that you aren't looking to, and can't be scared of no purpose when you realize that there is none. Some might say this is "unhealthy", well look around at the world, what is "healthy"? Just because something is a cultural norm, doesn't mean it's good for you
This broke my heart I've thought deeply about my self worth. I thought i wasn't worthy, but medication has helped. I am worthy i deserve to live. I'm turning 48 tomorrow and I'm proud of that.
The time I felt like completely giving up was my junior year of high school (I’m a freshman in college now). I lived a perfectly good life, I was cheer captain, captain of the girls track, I had a supportive family, and the best friends you could ask for; but it was my lowest time. I was in pretty advanced classes but I truly felt like a fish out of water. I didn’t feel smart enough to be with the people around me, and they all seemed to have a good idea of what they want for their future. And me, I had no clue. I felt so lost and While everyone else seemed to be going forward into their future, I felt like I was standing still and being left behind. I isolated myself a lot which only made my sadness worse. I lost all motivation and would legitimately cry almost daily. And when my mom asked what was wrong or what she could do to help me, I could never put my feelings into words. I didn’t know exactly why I was feeling so sad when my life was so good. In the end I graduated high school, got into a nice college, and I still don’t know what I want to do with my life, but I’m learning that that’s ok. I see now that there’s so many people who feel the same way as I do and that really helps me.
thoughts like these also deserve recognition. as you said - you do have a good life but that doesnt exclude that you can be at a very low point as well. you're allowed to be at that point taking your time to realise what you really wanna do in life. take it step by step, one day at a time. the best advice i can give you: let it happen. don't let your insecurities drown you. learn to work with them instead if against them. sending love x
I understand. The worst thing to ever be told is ‘but u have nothing to be sad about’ I get it sorta have the same sorta thing. Life’s decent but I’m still sad. Stay strong x
I used to feel like giving up. Then, I got pregnant and my baby's dad took off on us. That was 7 years ago. Now every day I look into my baby's eyes and remember that I promised her that I'd never give up again, because one parent giving up and leaving her is bad enough.
When I was younger I always dreamed about going to Japan for college and I even learned how to speak fluent Japanese but then I found out that I couldn't go because I didn't have enough money to move out there I was so depressed that I gave up on everything I wouldnt have a smile on my face and even tho I had a decent wage job at the time I was unhappy with myself so I tried to hang myself but then my mom found me right when I was about to jump and she just ran to me hugged me and said "everything will be ok mijo" and I told her "I'm sorry mom, but I don't think it will" and she said "even tho you haven't gone yet, keep ur head up you still have the rest of your life to go I believe in you" so after that I started getting my life straight and talking to my family all the time because I didn't need a therapist because I had them by my side and then I started saving money and now I'm living in Japan and going to college studying anime👍😁, so happy I can be here and the only people I can thank for all of this is my family and freinds who supported me through this time love you guys💜
The girl talking about her friends suicide I also lost a friend he was gay he struggled with telling his family no matter your sexuality your so beautiful always no that someone loves you
I can never be so thankful to my best friend who was so accepting when I came out to her. I live in a country where lgbt people can't live without getting hate and being killed I've not yet come out to my mom but she always indirectly says that she has no problem with lgbt people in general. What you said is so true, when you are going through rough times, a single supportive person can make a great difference. If it was not for her, I don't know if I would be still alive today.
Wow what an absolutely amazing person you are my friend took his life he came out to me but I already new he was gay but his family wouldn't accept him and it cut me up inside because I felt I didn't do enough your such a beautiful person always be who you want to be ❤
I can relate to him, I'm gay and I'm still struggling, not because i can't tell my family, but not having to live like i feel i want to. I always have to be "manly".
I'm truly happy for you... I hope you still are...i wish you the best of luck and happiness and just the ability to enjoy your life and see through the darkness in case you ever feel surrounded by it again
It's our independence day today in India. Seems fitting that these people are now free from those feelings of pain and suffering. Thank you for posting this today. 💫
I care about U and even tough u don’t know me we share one of the most important things we’re both little human beings trying to survive on this big floating rock and I care about U the world isn’t the same without you
I'm only 17 and I can relate to a lot of people in this video. I always struggle with speaking out my thoughts like I can't make them into a sentence and hearing from them what I feel makes me feel better in some weird way. You are all worth, we are all worth.
I was diagnosed with severe depression around 4 years ago. Around that time, i had a lot of messed up things happen in my life that made me want to end it, multiple times. It was a lot of feeling like nothing mattered, and that i was alone and it wouldn’t change anyone else’s life if i took my own. Now, i can say i’m doing so much better. My life isn’t great and neither is my mental health, but it’s good. If you’re struggling, just know you are not alone, and you are not weak if you need help. If you’re looking for a sign, this is it. Suicide will not end your problems, even if it feels like it. You are loved. You are important.
Thanks, I've mood swings and few depression, I'm glad I didn't started to cut myself when I was in between of teenage and major age (Somewhere around 18 y/o).
I feel like completely giving up right now, everything and everyone just seems to be against me at the minute. But one thing that keeps me going is knowing I’m not alone, and that other people feel the same way. We’ve got this, storms pass and light shines bright 🤞🏻
Always look forward to your uploads, thank you for another one Thoraya! Love all of these different questions you ask, the more I watch the more I realise how much we can relate to each other. if we can be more open and vulnerable, we allow ourselves to heal more ❤️ people are beautiful 💕
The time (the only real time in my life actually) that I felt like completely giving up was when my ex-girlfriend split up with me. To cut a long story short we were together for a year and a half, she was the absolute love of my life. She made me feel so happy, so alive, she made me feel like I could do anything. She was my first love, and only love so far in my life. Things were perfect, but one day we had an argument over facebook messenger and she told me that she didn't think she wanted to be with me anymore. I asked why, she wouldn't give a straight answer, and was being incredibly nasty to me for no reason. Eventually she said she'd come over in three days and we'd talk and and sort things out and get through it (we'd gotten through rough times before and always came out stronger somehow, so I thought we could do it again, but in the back of my mind I knew what was coming). Three days went by, longest days of my life, then it got to three days later, it was a Friday, she said she'd come over in the afternoon/evening. Hours and hours went by and nothing, I knew she wasn't coming, then around 8pm that night i got a message on facebook from her and it was to dump me. Not even face to face, to a girl I gave the world to for a year and a half, who only weeks before told me how much she wanted to spend the rest of her life with me. I wrote her a letter to try and win her back and get her to see me in person. She agreed, we met and she told me that there may still be a future for us, she just needed some time. We went our separate ways and after a few weeks I couldn't wait any longer and asked what was going on with us, but then she said it was a 100% over and she was sorry, but she hadn't changed her mind and wasn't going to, and that was that. I kept pleading but she blocked me. That was almost a year ago and I haven't spoken to her since. That is what killed me, not the initial break up, but the confirmation that that was really it, and I'd never spend another moment in life with her again. It honestly felt like an overnight break up. One day I had her, then the next she was gone. It was like I was in the best dream ever, but then I woke up and none of it really mattered in the end. I lost her, i quit my job a few days before to pursue freelance videography and do all of the things that the job I hated prevented me from doing. I was looking forward to spending much more time with her as well, as the job made it difficult for me to be there for her sometimes, but I wasn't going to let that happen anymore. I worked for a lifecoach/Personal trainer for 3 months making videos for her brand/website, but I was so depressed and sad that she thought I was unmotivated and wasn't enjoying the work. I told her I was going through a hard time, and she seemed understanding and apologetic, but by December she let me go, just stopped contacting me. I had nothing, no girlfriend, no money, no job, I honestly contemplated suicide. My friends and family were amazing, but sometimes there is only so much they could do. I eventually got a part time job, then started to apply like mad for jobs in the Film and TV industry, after a couple months I got an interview and started the job in April this year. I was recently promoted and the job is going very well as it's in the industry I want to be in. I've been writing a lot of scripts as that's a passion of mine, as I desire to be a director and writer one day. My career is going well, I'm the healthiest I've ever been due to the gym and good food, I'm writing scripts all the time that I'm really proud of, I'm sleeping well, I'm going to so many gigs and festivals and enjoying life. I'm doing well. It honestly took about 10 months to start feeling good again, and since July I've been doing well. Of course the whole experience will always linger, and I definitely still have love for her, but I'm getting on with my life. I'm still here, my friends and family are amazing and I'm feeling really hopeful about the future, for the first time in a long time. It's been almost a year since I lost her, and lost myself also, but at least I got the most important one of those two back, and that is me. I'm proud of myself for making it this far, it's been the hardest year of my life and I almost gave up on even being alive, let alone truly living. Things always get better, this experience has taught me that. Surround yourself with friends and family, chase your dreams, but accept that feeling sad is okay, ball your eyes out, let it all out, the anger, the sadness, the frustration, the longing for what is lost, and hold on to the comforting notion that one day, you'll smile again, and it'll be real.
I felt like giving up before my finals & before my results. 2 years after my enrolment in college i had to start all over again😔. I felt it was too late to start over & began to think I'm dumb & worst of all, i thought I'd be a disappointment to my Family Three years on, I'll be graduating in November😢😢😭🎓📚 God is good y'all❤ & he provided tuition so.... I'm all in the clear✔💵.
At 63, after decades of depression and anxiety (and self hatred) I decided to stop trying to be what others wanted me to be and rediscover my true self. I remembered who I once was and am working to recapture that, and I found some of my true joy again.
My parents think depressing isn’t a thing but they don’t know I’m depressed. Sometimes when we are talking about depression they say that I shouldn’t be depressed because they think I ‘live the best live’
They clearly don't understand it's not a choice for everyone to just "Not be depressed." I'm not sure how old you are or what kind of support you have available, but look to friends, famous people you admire that give off positive vibes, maybe books or TV or something fictional can help you escape your depression and your parents' non-belief in it. If none of that works for you, I'm here and I'll do my best!
Happened to me a couple years ago, i am not completely okay, but i'm a little bit more motivated now, i have dreams and one of them is having my own place and leave my parents' house and my country, i love them but we have a lot of different ideas, and i feel like i would have a better relationship with them if we would live in different places. I plan to do whatever i have to do to live peacefully by my own, doing what i like in my own space, and finally take some therapy to be better with myself, because i don't wanna keep struggling alone.
@@naomi8561 I'm very proud of you for getting through it, even if you're not completely there yet. I've always had a close relationship to my family, but I understand wanting to move, or at the very least, to travel. I believe you can do this! Achieve your dreams, all of you! Even if it's hard sometimes.
Sometimes people around you have no idea about how your life is, how you feel. My oldest sister always said to me: “You have no reason to be depressed, your childhood was much easier than mine, you have everything!“ She had no idea about what I was feeling, how my day to day life was ☺ And her statement wasn't helpful at all.
I'm at work (military) and want so badly to watch this, but I know I'd be a hot mess at my desk with all of my sailors walking by...will save for later! Thanks in advance for this video; for providing space for emotional expression and for those of us watching to learn that every person we see has something going on. Your videos have helped increase my level of compassion for every person I interact with. You are truly a gem, Thoraya. Thank you for being you
You're right. It can be very difficult for long periods of time. Staying present helps immensely. I don't dwell on the past (too depressing) and I don't think about the future, (anxiety).....I work hard every hour of the day at being present in whatever I'm doing.
A lot of people are struggling out here 😭... I was about to just tell myself stop you've lost this battle when I saw this and I'm gonna stay positive 😊
"You're so warm, and such bright lights." Yooooo, I need that. 🥺😭 I've been 2 yrs and 3 months with no cutting...but this past Feb/June I finally met my long distance boyfriend...and he was so abusive, and I thought about taking my life just so the abuse would end, but here I am 2 months away from my ex, and I am healing, and I am making it through...mind you we were together for 3 and a half yrs, but finally met in Feb... Or when I lost my younger brother little over 2 yrs ago...I just didn't feel like I belonged anymore, cause I had just lost my first best friend, my partner in crime, my right hand man, my everything...but now, I still don't feel like I belong, but I do know that I have the best Guardian Angel looking after me...
I am so sorry for what you had to go through. Keep going, life will get better! There is always someone you can talk to, even if it is a random person in the internet!
@@alicia8571 Please, keep going! I know how you feel, I had some tragic events happen to me as well in 2017. It was a very bad year mentally. But life always gets better! Trust me :)
"the more people i met, the more people would disappear." oof, i felt that.
Same. That's really sobering.
Lauren Marzocca that hit me hella *hard* 😕
Lauren Marzocca did she mean dying or just leaving ?
Mira Sandy i think either.
how I understand that saying, is that meeting new people cause conflicts to the ones you have now (old friends) idk like it conflicts with everything, other's getting jealous, no time to hangout with others, but that's how I understand it. There's a deeper say or meaning, I just cant seem to find the words.
0:45 imagine hearing someone tell you "you're so warm"
How beautiful.
never heard anyone say that to me
I would literally *shut down.* No one has ever said anything like that to me...
Heyyy
Start by telling other people that they are warm and that you appreciate them😊
You are going to get it back🙏
My friend would laugh and say "are you ok today?"
bruh that girl is so damn sweet and I hope she's happy wherever she is. And also, as soon as she said that, I cried a little because I'm happy for her
50 seconds in and let me just say, the first girl deserves THE WORLD!!!
Exactly
I'd rather get Heaven's Door
❤️❤️❤️
I couldn't really hear what she was saying
Amen!
I’m the first person in the video. Thank you all for your kind words and thank you Thoraya for allowing me to share something so meaningful with my friends :)
You’re all truly special humans
More power to you

And there expressions
"Be strong enough to ask for help rather than being strong enough to face it alone"......... hit me hard

Oh I wasn’t expecting that, I’m so sorry for your loss. Much love
I can’t remember the last time I was genuinely happy.
Well I hope after 7 months you've made new memories and have welcomed new joys into your life. I'm here for you
If you ever need anyone to talk to, I’m here for you.
💙
Hoping by now you are much stronger and found just one way to keep you happy! Just one will make a difference!
I was happy before I got into high school and college. 🤦 But overall, life is full of challenges and it's just the beginning for me. I'm not ready to confront what is worse..
this first brown haired girl... she’s so soft. her soul is soft and i want to be her friend and hug her.

I really agree, normally I don't show emotion but this was an exception.
You can be her friend. Scroll up and see her message, and reply to her comment. Her name is Simren Khan.

This video idea was on a poll, and it didn’t win, but it would be fantastic. “What’s a question you never got an answer to?”
Skipford Do you know if you’re actually my real Dad ?
Skipford omg i really really hope she does this one
This would be great
"What happened that day at the track meet?"
Well someone asked me this and I didn’t answer but the question was “why are you always so f*cking angry?”🤷🏽♀️
This shows how diffrent situations can impact people harder than others, so don't say things like "other people have it worse", just be there to give support
And we should also not say that to ourselves!
I just talked to my older sister about this yesterday. We both have chronic genetic health problems, and she said, "I just remind myself someone always has it worse" & I told her that I hate that saying, because each person's pain is fully individual, and to say someone has it worse, though it may technically be right, invalidates the individual's struggle. ✌️
@@AlucardPeach 👏👏👏
love your profile pic and that’s so true❤️
I hate that people compare there issue, like "You don't need to be upset". "stop overreacting"
Like I'm no. People have there own problems some people can be upset about little things. Like the person who's dog died, that one simple thing, triggered so many other larger things in her mind. So don't give people shit.
Last year, I lost my job and my husband confessed he was having an affair and ending the marriage in the same week. Then I lost my home when I had to move back to the USA two days after the breakup. As a result, I lost my perceived future, my identity, my sense of self worth. I felt like I lost everything and I wasn’t going to make it through alive because all I felt was despair. To anyone reading this and struggling, you can get through this. Half the battle is showing up and you can do it.
much love.
You are very strong dear stranger for continuing to push through life in spite of all your struggles. And I respect and admire you for that ✌️💛
"Half the battle is showing up"
I'm sure you aren't the first person to come up with this sentence, but reading this from you right now really struck a cord with me.
Thank you.
I hope you're having a wonderful year, and if not, just remember that you can do it.

'Name a moment in your life you wish you'd taken another choice?' seems interesting to me? :)
I wish I had postponed my Europe trip and went home. I would have seen my dad for the last time.
@@nzungu7773 im sorry for your loss
I wish *talked to someone* and told them I needed help instead of being anxious and wondering why im feeling down for years 😕 I could have done do much during that time.
I wish I had left with my friends from that party where I was raped
I wish i could stop cutting..
I was 14 when I was first diagnosed with a cancer called Rhabdomyosarcoma. I ended up going through a very traumatic experience, ending up with my left breast being taken. It was upsetting, but I stayed strong. But in December of 2018, my grandma passed away on the 30th, this was the most devastating day of my life. My grandma was alway there for me when I was in the hospital and she would cook for me. She was my whole inspiration to finish out strong, but once she left, I just felt like I couldn’t do it anymore, I was sad that she wasn’t there to see me ring the bell when I finished my chemo cycles. I’m 16, about to be 17 and I accomplished so much. I promised her at her funeral that I would finish school and go to college to become an oncologist.
Stay strong,,,she is watching over you
Hi, I just wanted to say, keep going.
Im as old as you were when you wrote this, and the grandma part really hit home. I hope you fully recover and live the most fulfilling life you can, how you want it. I know whats what my grandma would want for me, and I think yours for you as well❤
When my husband of 33 years told me out of the blue that he was leaving and didn’t love me anymore. No explanation, I thought we were best friends and he told me he was pretending to love me. The pain was so great that I thought it wouldn’t end. I actually thought of ending my life, just to end the pain.
Todi omg how can someone be so brutal...I hope you find true happiness

The most important part of this video is how everyone eventually overcame the difficult times they were passing through.
For everyone watching this video, we can be the same, so promise to never give up on yourself.
Beautifully stated.

I think one of the points of the video is exactly that... those that did give up aren’t here anymore which obviously emphasises how important it is to help others around us x

Does anyone else just think about what they would say for every vid
In between thinking about how beautiful and incredibly strong everyone in the video is, yes. What was your answer for this video?
thats the WHOLE point of these vids. Its not just for the benefit of the people being interviewed
Always, and it’s a great thought experiment to understand yourself. Luckily, I can’t find an answer for this one
Yes, I reflect on myself while I watch them. Like right now, this is the most difficult time in my life. Have been giving up on school for 2-3 years. So tough to force myself to keep going.
Yes. This particular question made me answer out loud and realize the moment. Cried a lot. Thanks for thes vids.
The woman that recieved help from a homeless guy got me emotional..
When someone living in the streets, barely have something to eat or to wear, come to you and ask you if you're okay and if you need help, shows that there is still humanity in people.
Thank you for these videos! It makes us see that people are going through more than us. But also not to judge others and be kind to one another. Because one sweet word can make someone's day better ❤
I thought those homeless guys were angels right when she said she felt like they were.
I hope Jason is ok
yeah it does
you don't know what someone is going through
and they just want a soothing word to give them hope and comfort
Even Jason has nothing he managed to help a stranger just by talking. That’s priceless. Definition of kindness.

9:49 "It's hard to pick one". The way she said it with a smile makes it more sad.

Me too. It is horrible. I struggled for years and years but everything ended when I turned to God. I wish everyone that experiences this hell (because it is hell) to experience the healing love of God. Now I still have a lot of downs but deep inside me I know that God is always there and when I truly stop being angry at Him He never lets me down.
I hope that you don't see this comment as an attempt to convince you of anything but as a testimony of what healed me and got me out of this mess. Peace

This is possibly my favorite video of yours! please make a part 2 :)
This is insane how cheerful and smiling all these people are when talking about their darkest times, it just seems surreal. This truly proves the fact that we don't want to die to end life, we want to end the unbearable pain within ourselves.
'Being strong enough to ask for help instead of strong enough to do it alone' SAY IT AGAIN FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK
Can be difficult though
My pride always gets in the way
I guess there’s one thing I’ve learnt here, we all need to speak the hell up when life brings us down. We are our own worst enemy. Powerful.
good point....
Speak up to whom? It is not like people actually care. Like when someone ask you how you doing. They don't really want to know...so I see no point in speaking up. 😧. Just my opinion
@@See-if_I_care its not that people don't care ...its that people don't know you are hurting. Keep speaking and you will find one or many that care enough to listen and help.
@@bosirefaith371 In my experience it's just best to keep quiet and deal with the issue myself. My way of avoiding judgement, pity or even recentment from others
But...what about you Thoraya do you have a story?
Evil Boy Layoutha the question that needs to be answered!!!
Im literally about to cry 😥 I think it's the zooooom that makes it emotial af
I agree. Its the eyes. In a way, you can just see the pain they went through.
And the music
the first girls is the most sweetest and purest person I've ever seen, I was crying right off the bat 😔😭
In the span of a month I was robbed at gun point for $425, my guinea pig of 3 years died two days later in my arms, my uncle died, and I was diagnosed with PTSD... There has never been a lower point in my life than that... I didn't want to go on and some days it's really really hard to keep going on but honestly the only thing that keeps me here is no one will take care of my new guineas if I were to die...
Alexandria Coates Being robbed at gun point must have been so terrifying! And I’m sorry your uncle and your pet died :( I think the same thing about my little shitzu, she needs me so I can’t give up. I hope you are better and getting through it!
I hope you'll find some more reasons to stay here. I wish you find happiness in this life. I wish you love, beautiful people and that you can laugh everyday. You deserve it. Take good care of yourself ❤
Hung in there
They're lucky to have you. Kind hearted person like you to care for them, you're special.
Please stay... I am truly sorry for what you went through... But try to stay alive and try your best... You don't have to always be alright... But please try to see the light... If the light is your guinea pig... Then well may it be so... i hope you will find many others... Or already did

Dammn, that was quite deep to be honest.. And she speaking facts with that.
I've seen this video before, but I watched it again last night when I was getting into a dark place while reflecting on how lonely I was at this time last year, and that quote really hit me. I'm not in that space anymore and I'm not lonely for the first time in years, so it was just tough to look back on that. But that's all I'm doing: looking at it, not feeling it. It's not in my life anymore, but I can reflect back on it and I'm going to talk about how I felt at that time with my best friend to bring me more closure.
You just never know how your life will change and how much it will change. I never expected to feel loved and not lonely last year, but I made it out. I'm not lonely anymore.
you have such a gift. people aren’t this vulnerable around strangers in every day life. YOU are the reason that they feel comfortable enough to open up like this, you are such a pure soul
I love the description of her friends "you are so warm and bright light". That's the description of someone who lifts you during hard times.
But jeez these answers are dark :/
When I was 15 I was homeless. I had no family, no one to help me,no one to lean on but myself. At that point I wanted to give up but 20 years later I'm still here. As hard as it life gets, it does get better.

I wanted to give up after my mom and dad passed away while I was in the middle of severe active drug addiction. I lost everything...my job, car, house, belongings, my family.. everything. Almost my life when I overdosed in 2016. I still couldn't stop so I wanted to give up and accepted the fact that I would die that way. I managed to get into a long term program...I have been clean for 2 years now and also welcomed my 1st child last year. My family might've been taken from me but I got something back, my son...and my life♡ I'm so glad I didn't give up or I would've never experienced sobriety or being a mother.

There is still days where I feel like giving up and I think that there will always be days where I feel completely hopeless but once corona-lockdown lifts I will seek professional help. I know that I am not the only one who feels this hopeless and lost and I really wanna urge you all to please talk to someone. Seek help if you need it, because your life matters to me.

There are days when life can be tough and I'm sorry to hear that you are going through this. How are you these days? I hope you're much better.
I guess basically everybody knows how it feels to a certain degree... But the fact that you realize it is good for you... You can still work against it... I truly believe that you can make it through it... So please dont give up and remember that whatever causes those thoughts does not change the fact that you are a perfectly fine human being

Imagine living a life where you are always scared. Scared of losing people, scared of not being good enough, scared of the future, scared of having no purpose....just scared of being alive in general. Imagine being me.
Everyone is scared of something but we have to look beyond our fears. Fearing of future and not being good enough will not make you the person you wanted to be. Have faith that everything will work for you.❤
I"m just not oky right now .i'm so scared about future ..😓
Me too
My solution is apathy. Can't lose people if you don't get close to them, can't be scared of not being good enough if you never try to measure up, can't be scared of a future that you aren't looking to, and can't be scared of no purpose when you realize that there is none. Some might say this is "unhealthy", well look around at the world, what is "healthy"? Just because something is a cultural norm, doesn't mean it's good for you

Happy 49th! Or almost 49th, this comment was a year old. How are you? ♡
The time I felt like completely giving up was my junior year of high school (I’m a freshman in college now). I lived a perfectly good life, I was cheer captain, captain of the girls track, I had a supportive family, and the best friends you could ask for; but it was my lowest time. I was in pretty advanced classes but I truly felt like a fish out of water. I didn’t feel smart enough to be with the people around me, and they all seemed to have a good idea of what they want for their future. And me, I had no clue. I felt so lost and While everyone else seemed to be going forward into their future, I felt like I was standing still and being left behind. I isolated myself a lot which only made my sadness worse. I lost all motivation and would legitimately cry almost daily. And when my mom asked what was wrong or what she could do to help me, I could never put my feelings into words. I didn’t know exactly why I was feeling so sad when my life was so good. In the end I graduated high school, got into a nice college, and I still don’t know what I want to do with my life, but I’m learning that that’s ok. I see now that there’s so many people who feel the same way as I do and that really helps me.
Claire Higgins omg you just explained how i’ve been feeling like thank you ig
thoughts like these also deserve recognition. as you said - you do have a good life but that doesnt exclude that you can be at a very low point as well. you're allowed to be at that point taking your time to realise what you really wanna do in life. take it step by step, one day at a time. the best advice i can give you: let it happen. don't let your insecurities drown you. learn to work with them instead if against them. sending love x
I understand. The worst thing to ever be told is ‘but u have nothing to be sad about’ I get it sorta have the same sorta thing. Life’s decent but I’m still sad. Stay strong x
I wanna hug the first girl for a very long time and just tell her you are amazing.
for those who have given up, thank you for trying ur best.
“Hard to pick one”
That hit me hard though 😔
I used to feel like giving up. Then, I got pregnant and my baby's dad took off on us.
That was 7 years ago. Now every day I look into my baby's eyes and remember that I promised her that I'd never give up again, because one parent giving up and leaving her is bad enough.
When I was younger I always dreamed about going to Japan for college and I even learned how to speak fluent Japanese but then I found out that I couldn't go because I didn't have enough money to move out there I was so depressed that I gave up on everything I wouldnt have a smile on my face and even tho I had a decent wage job at the time I was unhappy with myself so I tried to hang myself but then my mom found me right when I was about to jump and she just ran to me hugged me and said "everything will be ok mijo" and I told her "I'm sorry mom, but I don't think it will" and she said "even tho you haven't gone yet, keep ur head up you still have the rest of your life to go I believe in you" so after that I started getting my life straight and talking to my family all the time because I didn't need a therapist because I had them by my side and then I started saving money and now I'm living in Japan and going to college studying anime👍😁, so happy I can be here and the only people I can thank for all of this is my family and freinds who supported me through this time love you guys💜
I'm so proud of you, i wish my dream will come true either 🙏
That's awesome 😭😭😭
I'm glad you are still alive and living your dream ❤ stay strong brother

Is that a Color Morale reference? :)
my friend said that the day before she died.
I have that on my hoodie, its a really good quote
The girl talking about her friends suicide I also lost a friend he was gay he struggled with telling his family no matter your sexuality your so beautiful always no that someone loves you
Preach, honey. Preach!
💜
I can never be so thankful to my best friend who was so accepting when I came out to her. I live in a country where lgbt people can't live without getting hate and being killed
I've not yet come out to my mom but she always indirectly says that she has no problem with lgbt people in general.
What you said is so true, when you are going through rough times, a single supportive person can make a great difference. If it was not for her, I don't know if I would be still alive today.
Wow what an absolutely amazing person you are my friend took his life he came out to me but I already new he was gay but his family wouldn't accept him and it cut me up inside because I felt I didn't do enough your such a beautiful person always be who you want to be ❤
I can relate to him, I'm gay and I'm still struggling, not because i can't tell my family, but not having to live like i feel i want to. I always have to be "manly".
I'm 2 years almost 3 years clean of self harm💜
Massive well done!! ❤️

I'm only 17 and I can relate to a lot of people in this video. I always struggle with speaking out my thoughts like I can't make them into a sentence and hearing from them what I feel makes me feel better in some weird way. You are all worth, we are all worth.
I was diagnosed with severe depression around 4 years ago. Around that time, i had a lot of messed up things happen in my life that made me want to end it, multiple times. It was a lot of feeling like nothing mattered, and that i was alone and it wouldn’t change anyone else’s life if i took my own. Now, i can say i’m doing so much better. My life isn’t great and neither is my mental health, but it’s good. If you’re struggling, just know you are not alone, and you are not weak if you need help. If you’re looking for a sign, this is it. Suicide will not end your problems, even if it feels like it. You are loved. You are important.
Thanks, I've mood swings and few depression, I'm glad I didn't started to cut myself when I was in between of teenage and major age (Somewhere around 18 y/o).
Wow, so kind.
We should always keep in mind that someone has probably been through some shit and try to woke in their shoes.
Be Kind.
I feel like completely giving up right now, everything and everyone just seems to be against me at the minute. But one thing that keeps me going is knowing I’m not alone, and that other people feel the same way.
We’ve got this, storms pass and light shines bright 🤞🏻
Please, keep on keelin' on.
I am living proof that life gets better.
Don't give up
I feel you! We’ll get through this. We have to believe in better days(:
You’ve got this even when it doesn’t seem like it. Hope will rise with the sun tomorrow if you choose to step into its light 💗
Always look forward to your uploads, thank you for another one Thoraya! Love all of these different questions you ask, the more I watch the more I realise how much we can relate to each other. if we can be more open and vulnerable, we allow ourselves to heal more ❤️ people are beautiful 💕
Jasmine wow you watch it too❤❤
I'm so happy to see you here. And Jasmine you are one of my favorite people on TH-cam
"It's hard to pick one." Totally understand this person.
The time (the only real time in my life actually) that I felt like completely giving up was when my ex-girlfriend split up with me. To cut a long story short we were together for a year and a half, she was the absolute love of my life. She made me feel so happy, so alive, she made me feel like I could do anything. She was my first love, and only love so far in my life. Things were perfect, but one day we had an argument over facebook messenger and she told me that she didn't think she wanted to be with me anymore. I asked why, she wouldn't give a straight answer, and was being incredibly nasty to me for no reason. Eventually she said she'd come over in three days and we'd talk and and sort things out and get through it (we'd gotten through rough times before and always came out stronger somehow, so I thought we could do it again, but in the back of my mind I knew what was coming). Three days went by, longest days of my life, then it got to three days later, it was a Friday, she said she'd come over in the afternoon/evening. Hours and hours went by and nothing, I knew she wasn't coming, then around 8pm that night i got a message on facebook from her and it was to dump me. Not even face to face, to a girl I gave the world to for a year and a half, who only weeks before told me how much she wanted to spend the rest of her life with me. I wrote her a letter to try and win her back and get her to see me in person. She agreed, we met and she told me that there may still be a future for us, she just needed some time. We went our separate ways and after a few weeks I couldn't wait any longer and asked what was going on with us, but then she said it was a 100% over and she was sorry, but she hadn't changed her mind and wasn't going to, and that was that. I kept pleading but she blocked me. That was almost a year ago and I haven't spoken to her since.
That is what killed me, not the initial break up, but the confirmation that that was really it, and I'd never spend another moment in life with her again. It honestly felt like an overnight break up. One day I had her, then the next she was gone. It was like I was in the best dream ever, but then I woke up and none of it really mattered in the end.
I lost her, i quit my job a few days before to pursue freelance videography and do all of the things that the job I hated prevented me from doing. I was looking forward to spending much more time with her as well, as the job made it difficult for me to be there for her sometimes, but I wasn't going to let that happen anymore. I worked for a lifecoach/Personal trainer for 3 months making videos for her brand/website, but I was so depressed and sad that she thought I was unmotivated and wasn't enjoying the work. I told her I was going through a hard time, and she seemed understanding and apologetic, but by December she let me go, just stopped contacting me. I had nothing, no girlfriend, no money, no job, I honestly contemplated suicide. My friends and family were amazing, but sometimes there is only so much they could do. I eventually got a part time job, then started to apply like mad for jobs in the Film and TV industry, after a couple months I got an interview and started the job in April this year. I was recently promoted and the job is going very well as it's in the industry I want to be in. I've been writing a lot of scripts as that's a passion of mine, as I desire to be a director and writer one day. My career is going well, I'm the healthiest I've ever been due to the gym and good food, I'm writing scripts all the time that I'm really proud of, I'm sleeping well, I'm going to so many gigs and festivals and enjoying life. I'm doing well. It honestly took about 10 months to start feeling good again, and since July I've been doing well. Of course the whole experience will always linger, and I definitely still have love for her, but I'm getting on with my life. I'm still here, my friends and family are amazing and I'm feeling really hopeful about the future, for the first time in a long time.
It's been almost a year since I lost her, and lost myself also, but at least I got the most important one of those two back, and that is me. I'm proud of myself for making it this far, it's been the hardest year of my life and I almost gave up on even being alive, let alone truly living. Things always get better, this experience has taught me that. Surround yourself with friends and family, chase your dreams, but accept that feeling sad is okay, ball your eyes out, let it all out, the anger, the sadness, the frustration, the longing for what is lost, and hold on to the comforting notion that one day, you'll smile again, and it'll be real.
I wish there were more guys in there too. Men act tough, but they go through rough times too.
Exactly.
I felt like giving up before my finals & before my results. 2 years after my enrolment in college i had to start all over again😔. I felt it was too late to start over & began to think I'm dumb & worst of all, i thought I'd be a disappointment to my Family
Three years on, I'll be graduating in November😢😢😭🎓📚
God is good y'all❤
& he provided tuition so....
I'm all in the clear✔💵.
At 63, after decades of depression and anxiety (and self hatred) I decided to stop trying to be what others wanted me to be and rediscover my true self. I remembered who I once was and am working to recapture that, and I found some of my true joy again.
"One of the most Positive comments sections I've ever been through"❤️
4:00 - thank you for speaking on behalf of daughters that are being raised by toxic mothers. I felt that.

Its hard
Same asf
My parents think depressing isn’t a thing but they don’t know I’m depressed. Sometimes when we are talking about depression they say that I shouldn’t be depressed because they think I ‘live the best live’
They clearly don't understand it's not a choice for everyone to just "Not be depressed." I'm not sure how old you are or what kind of support you have available, but look to friends, famous people you admire that give off positive vibes, maybe books or TV or something fictional can help you escape your depression and your parents' non-belief in it. If none of that works for you, I'm here and I'll do my best!
Happened to me a couple years ago, i am not completely okay, but i'm a little bit more motivated now, i have dreams and one of them is having my own place and leave my parents' house and my country, i love them but we have a lot of different ideas, and i feel like i would have a better relationship with them if we would live in different places. I plan to do whatever i have to do to live peacefully by my own, doing what i like in my own space, and finally take some therapy to be better with myself, because i don't wanna keep struggling alone.
@@naomi8561 I'm very proud of you for getting through it, even if you're not completely there yet. I've always had a close relationship to my family, but I understand wanting to move, or at the very least, to travel. I believe you can do this! Achieve your dreams, all of you! Even if it's hard sometimes.
Sometimes people around you have no idea about how your life is, how you feel. My oldest sister always said to me: “You have no reason to be depressed, your childhood was much easier than mine, you have everything!“ She had no idea about what I was feeling, how my day to day life was ☺ And her statement wasn't helpful at all.
Heyy! How are you? I hope you are doing soo much better these days. Parents are not always understanding.
5 seconds in, I'm already tearing up. What an amazing video. Thank you for this.
I'm at work (military) and want so badly to watch this, but I know I'd be a hot mess at my desk with all of my sailors walking by...will save for later! Thanks in advance for this video; for providing space for emotional expression and for those of us watching to learn that every person we see has something going on. Your videos have helped increase my level of compassion for every person I interact with. You are truly a gem, Thoraya. Thank you for being you
Christopher Simmons thank you for your service. Have a wonderful day :)
❤️
Thank you for your service, and this sweet comment!
When I was in 1st grade I tried to use kitchen knives to cut my arms. Then as a junior I tried to kill myself but I'm now 2 years free of self harm❤
Thank you! Being strong enough to keep moving forward is very difficult to do but you did it!
❤️
Oh my gosh, thank goodness you’re alive! And that you’re trying to go clean :)
@@AudibleCrying thank you ❤
Some things are so painful , talking about them is impossible.
You're right. It can be very difficult for long periods of time. Staying present helps immensely. I don't dwell on the past (too depressing) and I don't think about the future, (anxiety).....I work hard every hour of the day at being present in whatever I'm doing.
You are loved by God and I love too for real
Angels can be the most unexpected visitors in our lives...
YES!
A lot of people are struggling out here 😭... I was about to just tell myself stop you've lost this battle when I saw this and I'm gonna stay positive 😊
Yeah it's amazing to me how many other people are struggling daily to get by, as well. Makes me feel less alone. You keep going too, good luck
"You're so warm, and such bright lights." Yooooo, I need that. 🥺😭
I've been 2 yrs and 3 months with no cutting...but this past Feb/June I finally met my long distance boyfriend...and he was so abusive, and I thought about taking my life just so the abuse would end, but here I am 2 months away from my ex, and I am healing, and I am making it through...mind you we were together for 3 and a half yrs, but finally met in Feb...
Or when I lost my younger brother little over 2 yrs ago...I just didn't feel like I belonged anymore, cause I had just lost my first best friend, my partner in crime, my right hand man, my everything...but now, I still don't feel like I belong, but I do know that I have the best Guardian Angel looking after me...
Jesus is Who you need above all!
!?
I am so sorry for what you had to go through. Keep going, life will get better! There is always someone you can talk to, even if it is a random person in the internet!
@@Daemonenkoenigin13Recently just lost my Grandpa, as well...it was Easter to be exact...life just don't make sense...
@@alicia8571 Please, keep going! I know how you feel, I had some tragic events happen to me as well in 2017. It was a very bad year mentally. But life always gets better! Trust me :)
Yesterday...today....everyday before that...
28 years old and I’m ready to fly away🦋
I hope you're okay ❤
