Her voice is so powerful
Ikr
I know
I know. It's beautiful too.
+Sammer B i know it just screams power!
It gives me goosebumps
wow this gave me chills. this girl has a very powerful voice
Yes she was amazing
i agree wow
Yes, that was breathtaking
clotilde besson ikr!!!
I made the likes 420
I'm afraid to die because i love my family but sometimes death seems more peaceful, better, easier
Phoenix you don’t want to upset those who care about you. You’re gonna are god very sad when you die, and you will regret it.
easier but no color
Phoenix I understand completely
i understand it too
No don't do that.You love them and they love you.Keep going okay.
Roses aren't always red,
Violets are exactly blue,
The society that we live in never seem
to speak the truth,
Smiles aren't always happy,
And frowns aren't always upset,
People judge too quickly,
And our feeling are what they forget.
Violets arent always blue
You should have more likes this made me cry....I hope one day every one can speak out for them selves and stop living in this cruel world we live in now
I want to die
Kindness is all i have. So true
Smiles aren't always happy cause they are forced
Frowns aren't always upset cause some people are born like that
Ever heard of a resting pissed off face? Guess what.I have it
I have anxiety and depression (and diagnosed with a lot more) and the hard part is that I want to die but am afraid of dying. So I'm in this endless cycle of denial
chanelnadia I feel you .. I tried to overdose on drugs but I didn't take them .. Just know ppl care about you ((: I am one of them .
chanelnadia i live in this constant state of denial to
chanelnadia same
chanelnadia Same
I am honestly not afraid of dying. I am just afraid of the consequences
I don't suffer from severe depression but rather just mild depression. It's hard enough. I keep it all to myself because my family thinks Im the happiest thing ever. I just feel empty each day. No purpose. Just there. I probably shouldnt be complaining since I've it easy compared to so much other individuals. Thankfully I can have a moment of comfort in music. But this, this is just beautiful.
It doesn't matter if it's severe or mild. Depression is a horrible thing no one deserves. Even though I don't know you I.know that you are amazing and deserve to live an amazing life.full.of love and happiness. I hope it gets better for you!
Ysabel Castro Thank u for that. Thank u.
+Lee Seul Hee talk to someone no matter who it is. i was diagnosed with a mild depression too. its anything but fun. so talk to someone who will help. before its too late.
Mehmet Ali Avci Thank u, I would listen to u then.
yeah for sure (y)
The scariest part about having depression and being suicidal is that even looking at any type of sharp object can have your thoughts screaming "take it! You can kill your self right now and you won't have anyone stop you."
Whenever I see someone cutting something I think " damn that would be and feel so nice cutting my arm"
I looked at my trazidone today and Put it into the cap and just looked at it for 5 mins I was debating
@@bryleighlaughlin4538 One day at a time love.
I almost did. No joke.
@@yoongummy8794 are you doing alright now? Just please try to distract yourself from such thoughts... ik it is easier said than done
Do you ever feel afraid to be happy?
1000 subscribers with no videos? Yea
Anonymous Ninja all the time
Anonymous Ninja no
Rather afraid of the disappointment that might come with believing you could be happy
I’ve developed a fear of happiness. I’ve been conditioned to expect the worst as soon as things get slightly better. When I feel a single ounce of joy creep in, I reject it because I know that as soon as it’s gone, I’ll be worse than I was before.
Her voice is so powerful... Anyone else think so?
for shure
yes omg !
she is a poet thats why
copying other people's comments? smh
Not copying, I think her voice is very
powerful.
I am afraid to die. But sometimes death seems better than living in this cruel world.
I'm so sorry you feel like that, I feel like that too sometimes.. I really hope you don't hurt yourself though, I hate to see people suffer :I
I feel ya.
JustBorrredd stay strong fren |-/
JustBorrredd |-/
Don't worry things get better I'm so glad I could help, just keep telling yourself that it will all get better one day
No-one will see or read this comment but. I believe in every person with depression or any mental disorder, believe you can do it. Make it. I'm no humanitarian but your potential is so much more than what your mind tells you, and seeing people live up to their potential makes me so happy. I'm surrounded by depressed people and I can't empathize. I'm constantly thinking, what if they're killing themselves right now? And to think millions of people have been through or are going through what they are, and a percentage may not make it through.
A percentage will not make it through,But you're more than a percentage, are you, You're a person, breathing and thinking,Don't lose yourself, falling, cutting or over-drinking,Such potential you hold.This struggle is temporary. I know it is cold.I know you feel alone. I know you feel scared.But into the eyes of fate stare, as many have stared,You can make it. You can, you know.You have to know this first, though.
Nate Rothwell Needed to hear this. Well said. May God Bless your sweet soul. That is what people need to see.
Nate Rothwell that just made my night. Bless u
Your message is heart-warming, thank you.
Nate Rothwell this is soo beautiful. This should be a pin comment. Thank you for me.

Dear Depression,
Why would you make me hurt myself??
Why do you make me feel sad and not happy??
Why do you make me hate myself??
Why do you make me want to die??
Why won't you go away??
Why won't you just leave me alone??
it’s so true though. 💔
trolls maniac oOf
Those are questions I ask myself every day
That was beautiful.
***** haha yeah :)
K-Pop Biased That it was
You know I know you replied to your self right
***** What?
just like you
I actually cry every time I watch this, because it's all true, and I wish I was strong enough to let go.
Never give up, never ever ever.
Everybody is, indeed just do not give up. I know I sound like about everyone but you will find the strength. I promise.
+Emma McDonald i let my fears get to me
+ravenwolf
Honestly I'm not even letting them get to me anymore
They're forcing me
+Emma McDonald They can't force you. They don't rule you, even though it may feel like they do. They're like shadows lurking around you, dark and imposing and menacing, and I know they can make you feel powerless and overwhelmed, but think about it...If you want to get rid of shadows, of darkness - you don't need to build complicated walls or defense mechanisms around you. All you have to do to make them disappear is just...turn on the light.
My depression is unexplainable
Fucku Youlol yep
Fucku Youlol thank God I’m not the only one.
Probably that's not depression if it unexplainble
Same
🥺
We need more girls like her in the spotlight
...Your profile picture wants me to suicide
Jessica Y. I agree
妻弟ØRËØ that’s just rude
@@goldenhoshi omg. That was mean and really unnecessary.
women* but i agree
I'm not afraid to die. I'm just afraid of how my family or friends will feel when I do. I don't want them to hurt or feel the way I felt. I just want us all to be happy.
julia cho I'm Not Afraid Of Death Just Afraid If My Family Cries Cause Once They Cry They Won't Be Able To Release Im Not Coming Back
I feel the exact same way!
Jaynie Kiel me too...
julia cho I'm only 13 but I think suicide too.

I find it sad how many people are depressed nowadays - something went very wrong. Everyday we invent things to make life better, easier and such, but somehow all this stuff makes people even more sad. Keep up, to all of you who suffer from depression, there is a place for everyone and you will find joy in your life, one day - dont worry.
Ragnar Lothbrok i dont have depression but sometimes i feel like the girl.
You could have bipolar depression but we all get sad sometimes, hopefully it isent as bad as her, she's tough, ps not saying depression only makes u as sad as everyone else
It could be that nature must balance things out. There must be trials, there must be pain, and as we try to improve as a species things have to get worse in order to maintain balance, because happiness does not exist in a world without sadness.
you guys are both brilliant. thanks
Ragnar Lothbrok It's not that depression didn't exist before or that we are sadder than we were in the past. It is because we talk about it now, we are not ashamed to have depression, It is more socially acceptable to share your emotions and mental health than it was 50 years ago. We have grown as people with our knowledge, mental health and chronic diseases are easier to diagnose now, therefore it seems that there are more illnesses in the world but really they have always existed, we just did not understand.
My drepression has become soo bad to a point that....i'm not afraid to die🙇
Stay strong, it will get better
I'm here for you bro call me 6477726781
Dont hesitate
The scriptures saith, It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. And, The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom...
I hope u kno that ur amazing n that u do mean so so much to so many ppl! I'm sorry I wish I cld hug to tight n say ur so imp to me but I'm still here wen ever u need me like really! I juz feel so so bad that I can't help but trust me I'm here n will always b no matter wat! Also I'm so so sure God has everything planned for u this phase will pass n u will be happy! Remember that u r the one who will bring light into someone's life, remember that person is waiting for u!!! I kno its easy to say but all ik is that ur v v special cause u have survived so far n I'm sure u will do further too!💜
I don’t want to keep going. I’m so tired of the constant pain and stress. It’s eating me alive and I try to tough it out but I reach moment when my heart feels heavy in my chest and all I feel is empty. Walking in a world that has cast me out I can only pretend to be happy and sometimes I start to believe it but the pain always comes back. I don’t want to live anymore. I only made it these 6 years because I was scared of leaving my family behind but now I wonder if it matters anymore
Beautiful Misfortune here to talk x
I wish I could tell the people closest to me "I understand" without feeling like a liar.
wow... that just hit me hard...
Woah
I know the feeling dude. I always feel like I'm going to muck up and then someone bigger, stronger, more powerful than me will come and take me away. It feels like I can't make one simple move without second-thinking it, then missing my chance to do what I wanted to.
It's like my freedom has disappeared into the bottom of my heart. The part I can't control. Thank you for reading...
+Cleo Green You don't even have to understand. Just be there for them. Even when they push you away, make sure they know that you're always willing to listen. You don't have to be up in their face about feeling better, or making them go outside. They just need you to be there to hold off the demons for awhile while they regain their strength.
Faewulf yep. as someone with BPD, which isn't depression, but it is another mental illness, just having someone to spill your guts to, it has saved my life.
I'm crying because I'm going through this........
Don't worry I am too. People think it's just something you can get over but they don't understand how people with depression feel. They don't understand the hurt and pain people feel. They don't understand how much people with depression would rather take that blade in their hand and just end it all there instead of having to hide behind a fake smile forever. But just think of all the people who love you and care about you and want to protect you and are hurt seeing you in pain and tears. But keep staying strong and keep searching for a reason to live if a simple depressed person like me can do it I'm sure a strong beautiful female like yourself can do it too...
I really wish they'd understand and not get mad when we are being selfish trying to better ourselves. It's all too overwhelming. But thank you, keep on fighting.
I wish depression was a person, so I could drown it before it gets to me. I guess I that's only a wish since it already got to me...
+AmazingFifi xD it's ok I feel and understand your pain. My parents never really got along. And then we found out he was having an affair with another woman who then got pregnant. Money was tight and we didn't really have much food and we lived In an apartment so their were thousands of dollars to pay. I was being bullied and teased and mocked at school but I never told my parents thinking I would be a burden to them.so I cut and. Cried in the silence in my room alone. I had no one to depend on no one to cry with so I always thought I would be alone. Many people in my family left us to deal with our own problems. And all I had to do was sit and put on a fake smile for the rest of humanity until I could finally break down.
+Tecno Muffin it's nice to know some people understand you I'm facing similar problems
I always return to this video every couple of months. This is why I was so shocked when I learned she died in 2022.
Rest in peace, Tonya. The world will not forget you!
Oh my god. Thank you so much. You literally saved my life. I was going commit suicide this Sunday, I was even planning it. I’ve dealt with so much bull crap that I can’t take it anymore. But, you made me realize that my life is so much more living and there is a reason why I was given it. I will not be silent anymore. I will be loud, let joy overtake to the point where they think I’m crazy. Thank you. God bless you. ❤️
For me it's like I'm not always sad, it's like there is constantly just a weight.
yass
+Darrius Hayes You Cant just say: "Stop Feeling depressed." Maybe you Are trying to Help, but its not Working. dont tell people to Do something that Can Seem impossible to some. WHAT if it was you? Think about something before you say it.
Pancake Paws I think they just mean a way to help. They were just trying to give help to people to are depressed
+Syddy Mola I know, because im depressed. But it just sounds so wrong to say: "Stop Feeling depressed" You have to agree with me on that
You do have a point there I mean if someone told me to stop being depressed then I start thinking that they are angry or upset that I'm like this so then I'll get more depressed because of that.so I agree with you
Depression is a horrible thing. A horrific, terrible illness. It feels a way nothing else feels. It's not only sadness; it's draining, it's tiring, it takes your energy and motivation and makes you feel like you are nothing. Anyone saying this doesn't have physical effects as well is wrong.
I have been struggling with depression for a long time now, and I'm finally looking for a therapist. All I need to say is if someone tells you about their depression it can be hard. You don't want others to feel burdened because of your mental illness, but telling them you love and care about them can just about mean the world to them. I know some of the smallest things make the biggest difference, like when someone asks if I'm feeling okay out of the blue. It shows you care, and that's truly helping.
Sometimes you'll feel alone in this world. You'll be surrounded by those who love you, but you feel like there is no one by you. Just remember, things will look up, you just have to stay positive and not push yourself too hard. If you have depression and you're reading this, as someone with depression, I get what you're going through. Sometimes it feels like the whole world will come crashing in, but you'll be okay. I promise
Peabee Neko thanks... I really needed that...
Yes,this is true
Peabee Neko I have suicidal depression
Rainbow Dragon Slayer I would hug you because I have a bit of depression
craigo my eggo thank you I have depression and I feel everything in this video and I try to hide it away but it's a hard thing it started at the age of 8 and went on for 2 years I felt that I wanted it to stop but have no idea I still have it today :(
"Stress, anxiety and depression are caused when we are living to please others"
- paulo coelho
Life would be so much better if only i could implement these words in my damn life
Worst of it is, I can act and hide my depression so well people think me to be the happy person.
At 14, I went from sad to sadder, world slowly sinking around me til all of a sudden, my world was black.
At 15, I was afraid to die, but the hourglass was what ticked through my nightmares.
At 16, I welcomed death with sweet nothings but he refused me every time.
At 17, I was grabbed by the wrists and had my hands grip the ledge of my sadness.
At 18, I've started to pull myself up.
I know I'll never truly escape this, but I know I can be better. That I can feel better.
It's about me. Thank you for your kind words
Nichole Sinclair Stay strong, its an everyday battle you have to fight with yourself and the world, don't let depression define who you are!
Go to a really big sunny field, lie in the sun, close your eyes and just listen to nature...
Lauren Lind Piano music was my favorite. Music, in general, was my go to. Something I am so passionate about now.
But nature too. Sometimes I would climb a tree, or go up on my rooftop, or hike to a far out spot and just relax while I was there.
Nichole Sinclair I hope that one day, you will wake up and realize that you managed to escape it. :) For now, I really do wish you the best of luck and I wish you the strength and hope to get through each day. Little steps will take you far. And hopefully, it will take you to where you want to be :)
Always remember to be good to yourself
I am afraid to die, but I am also afraid to live...
same!
Same feeling 😔
Inês Grou Story of my life since I was fourteen, you put the general feeling of depression into a simple but effective set of words. The fact that I engage in behaviors which help to preserve my life, such as maintain a healthy nutrition intake, coming home to my room everyday, and stepping a few feet back from the yellow line when the train speeds by, ultimately contradict my will to die. yet withdrawing from friends and family, investing little to no concern of the future, and reeling into a pattern of counter-productiveness contradicts a will to live too. The fear of death keeps me here, but the fear of life keeps me from living.
Depression is not you dear! You are not what this horrible thing is telling you you are, it is hard to not believe it cause it is in your mind. This is why we need to find what we love, to grab on to it and don't let go of our life. I have felt like you are feeling, I steel am, so afraid of dying or harming myself and so afraid of facing my life, my responsibilities, my future. Just grab on to what you really love, not a person something that makes you really truly happy and do not let go. WE WILL GET THROUGH THIS, we will feel happy again and it is going to be so beautiful and so worth all this pain and confusion and fear.
CRAAAAAAWLING IN MY SKIIIIIIIIIIIN, THESE WOOUUUNDS THEY WILL NOT HEEEEAAAALLL
Sobering. Thank you for being bold enough and brave enough to share your story, to help someone in need!!!
I feel how u do I have Anxiety and Depression
:(
same :(
Selena's the boss same
I feel so alone. I am so alone. I want to fight, but it would take a miracle for a single scared girl to fight of the thousand man army that is depression. I want out.
***** I know how you feel. I've been dealing with depression for the past 4 or 5 years. The best advice I can give you is to find someone who can help you. Whether it's friends or a therapist. But make sure it isn't a therapist who isn't going to put you on a bunch of meds. Because every therapist I've ever been to has tried that and I've always flat out refused and only the one I see now has been willing to try other things. Not saying meds are always bad but they're not always good either. But yeah unless you're like me and have only one friend who you never see or talk to and is a total airhead I'm sure there's someone you can talk to. It doesn't last forever. The problem is when you become so used to it and you're afraid to not be depressed. Stay strong. Don't let it own you.
Too get out u must fight out, don't give up the war, you have power over the 1000 man army, you can control and conquer them all, you can rise from the ashes, you can feel worthy, you can be you, you can be free with strength and time and help, you can be happy
You don't need to feel lone. Many of us hav or are going through depression. I don't want anyone to lose their lives because of it. Please. Things will get better if you just keep moving forward and dont let it hold you back. I too am trying, :)
***** if you need someone to talk to my

One annoying thing: When people say they are depressed when they're not (Don't you hate that??)
yes.
Pet hate
Very much.
+Mmmchutney honest
I think being depressed is different than having depression. Anyone can become very depressed time to time and it can sometimes lead to depression. ^.^ None knows whats going through that other persons head, they might be trying to get help from being depressed so it won't escalate into depression, yet none believes that person and thus the person might now have depression. Though I get what you're saying. ^^
took me so long to realize how depressed i am... now that i know, then maybe i can move forward. it will get better, i hope. please pray for me. the only thing that scares me is that no matter how hard i work on getting better, there's no guarantee that it won't come back again in the future and knock me out into another episode of absolute existential despair. my depressive episodes are getting so scary, and they hurt SO badly.. the nights become unbearable... somedays the only thing that keeps me from committing suicide is the fact that i wouldn't want anyone to know that I'm suicidal, and i still can't think of a way that would make it look like an accident. please pray for me.
Dee 123 I'm so sorry, and I know how you feel. I'm sending all my love and prayers.. 💞
Helena Carter thank you so much ❤❤
Dee 123 You are totally welcome.. 💗
I hope some day it gets better for you...I try and help as many people out of suicide as I can (10 lives saved and counting) and I hope maybe a comment like this to say
Have a nice day
Even if you feel down remember there are always people out there who Carr. Wether you know them or not. There are people here in this world who don't want anyone to die that way. so plz believe me when I say I really hope you have. A nice day
im praying for you baby
“Teased for the sneakers my mother could barely afford.” damn
I just wanna hug you and comfort you until I drown that depression with love for good
You're an amazing human being, A++ for the week :)

CRAWLING INNN MY SKINNNN
Tamara Mondragon strive through it. you can do it. everything you are going through will not hit you down and you will come out of this smiling. we have all got you.
Anxiety is an overprotective mother. It has good intentions. It’s just trying to keep me safe. From myself. It saw my emotions as a threat. It took them away and hid them in a shelf up high. I can’t reach my emotions anymore. All I can feel is fear now. It’s fear or nothing. And that just makes me scared to think about. But I’ll grow. I’ll be able to reach them soon. And soon. My anxiety wont be able to stop me.
"I'm afraid to die"
Hit me in the soul and again tears running down my face
Man.
I uses to not understand this video, but now that I am rewatching it it makes me cry. Thank you to the girl in this video.
Ashley Smith same I watched it two years ago and I was like depression is exactly the same thing as sadness but now I want to kill myself
SAME
But how did this just happen to me.?
She passed away
@@SupaStarStatus20 This is difficult to hear. I checked her Instagram only a few days before she passed, and yet until now, I thought she was alive, fighting like the soldier she is. May she rest in peace.
i hate depression so much
Amy here
jimin's jams same
I hate it it's like it's my friend but I don't want it to be
Same
ARMMY❤️❤️
I'm just glad I'm not the only one dealing with this. Best of life for you, love, and happiness.
i've had depression for about 8 months now. I was sexually abused when I was 10. The boy who did it moved afterwards. It grew when my grandma died on thanksgiving. At my camp i was harassed for many things. I've had suicidal thoughts but I feel to scared to die. This has helped me and I re watch it when I feel to sad to move.
can we see more of this girl? she is such a beautiful speaker.
Ikr!
I agree
She was doing spoken-word poetry

Tonya (or Tanya) Ingram. Her Instagram is in the description.
I don't want to die.. But I want to go to a place between life and death where I don't have to feel anymore..
I know things seem hard now, but talk to someone how you feel, no matter if its anonymous or not, it will make you feel better. Maybe even talk to yourself in the mirror. Find a hobby, be proud of it. Find people who will except you. And most importantly, hug. I know it sounds odd, but hug.
I know how you feel. I'm going through what your going through right now. I dont know if I'll survive it like some people but what I do know is that I'm going to fight, I'm going to fight till I can't fight it anymore. I'm gonna go out guns blazing. I'll be damned if I let this control my life. This thing isn't me. So I'm not going to make it me. Thanks you.
it s even harder when you can't feel anything.
same, I just want to disappear
I just want o sleep sense my dreams are way better than my real life and I would still be in the world......
In the first few months of depression, the pain felt raw and new. But after a year, it’s happiness that’s new.
I am 11 and has had depression for 3-4 years and and feel like I am the only one and I can relate to this a lot and I would like to say thank you. Thank you for answering my call of help to find help you are a hero along with a ton of amazing people
Praying to everyone who suffers from an illness, depression, disease, anything that causes you physical, emotional, or mental pain. I wish I could let go. This video really touched me. I cried.
Every single one of you is beautiful. Amazing. Pretty. Handsome. Nobody can tell you you're not.
I have severe depression and your comment made me happy today, thank you

thanks :)
Thanks
OMG this is so inspiring....I'm in tears....her voice and her demeanor are so powerful& confident....I'm just in awe....I understand that dark cloud of depression. Which tries to take over my mind every day...that loneliness that traps me & the voice that tells me I'll never be good enough or loved enough...ive dealt with it for most of my life that when I tried blocking out all the negative & evil things that have happened& tried taking me over that I blocked out so much of the good... ..im 37 now and finally starting to find the good from my past and remain hopeful for the good of today and I'm the future....you inspire me to remain hopeful
that letter was so gracious 💕💯 her words truly touched me. I struggle with suicidal thoughts, anxiety attacks, and depression and hearing her story reached me to let me know im not alone💛
Everyone thinks that depression is a joke or an emotion that lasts for a couple of seconds, minutes, or even hours. Depression is the most real it can ever be and it is something that lasts longer than an emotion.
Honestly depression is more than just feeling sad, I feel like this video missed the mark on that. Depression is laughing with your friends and feeling every ounce of joy drain out of in the 5 seconds after the laughter stops. Depression is sleeping for 14 hours a day and still feeling exhausted. Depression affects more than just emotions. It is physically debilitating.
Tatiana Tchobanova Yeah, this didn't sound like it was about clinical depression. When you have clinical depression, you feel depressed even if there's nothing else wrong in your life. This sounded like she actually had many issues in her life causing her feelings. But I don't see how that makes this poem any less valid since it wasn't meant to specifically address clinical depression.
So many people are uneducated on the subject and don't understand how dangerous a depression can be.
At least people understand what depression is to some extent.
Most people can't differentiate between anxiety and stress. I can't even tell people I'm going through anxiety issues and need time alone because they'll think I have problem with stress (which I have almost never had). Stress is different from anxiety... Very different.
Ren Dickson I understand that depression is a terrible thing and not a regular emotion, but I make jokes about everything so I'm sorry :( Also I've had something like a very long sadness that lasted about a year. and I just didn't want to do anything.. so I have some sort of experience with something more than sadness, nothing like depression though... I'm not going to be one of those fakers.
I hate it when people think depression is all sadness when it's not it's :
.guilt
.insecurity
.sadness
.and nothing

Lily Kilsby some days I want to cry because I held in the tears to many times. But I can’t cry. I’m lonely. It feels like I have nothing there for me.
Fantasy world

This applies to you more than anyone. To be able to encourage without encouragement, is a hard thing to do.
No, that's LIFE. DEPRESSION is a debilitating disorder, and it is *much* worse than those common feelings of "guilt, insecurity, sadness, and nothing."
I've gotten used to the sadness. I honestly don't remember what my old happy life was like. All I know is I miss it so much.
I have been depressed, for I don’t even know anymore how long. But now, anytime I am sad and think about hurting myself, I remember the nice moments I had with my boyfriend and what might come. I am lucky that I finally had someone. Despite him, scars are forever.
It hurts to be myself. It hurts more at home than school. It hurts to be called stupid just because of a pity test, while I tried me hardest. It hurts to be lonely. It hurts to be depressed.
us kpop fans know what it feels like to be made fun of
Emma :3 yeah, lol
Kpop much 😂
TaehyungIsMyBae You know, Kpop is thrown everywhere, we are Kpop trash. 😂

[I am sharing this because I need to vent sometimes, also because of the people who might think that they are alone, I am NOT sharing this because I want or need attention. I would never joke or fake that I have depressed.]
First of all, depression isn't something you decide to have, it sneaks up on you and can be all-consuming.
Sometimes I don't even realize I'm depressed before I catch myself constantly thinking bad things about myself, thinking that everyone around me thinks badly of me, and when my thoughts drift to suicide.
I can lay in my bed at night wide awake with negative and angsty thoughts running through my head. And other times I can sleep for the entire day not wanting to be around people. Or rather, I can't be around people. My mind makes me analyze and second-guess everything, it makes me distrust anyone I meet and I convince myself they are talking behind my back, that they secretly think badly of me. It makes me feel unloved, it makes me feel worthless and ugly both inside and out.
I can be waiting for the bus and the thought of walking in front of it crosses my mind. I can be cooking dinner and suddenly those angsty and negative thoughts take over and it would be JUST SO EASY to cut my wrist.
Those are my bad days, my really f*cked up days.
And then there's the numb days. Those days are dangerous in their own way because I don't feel anything mentally.
Nobody knows my thoughts or how I feel because I keep it all bottled up inside. I keep that painful smile plastered onto my face and act like the "normal" woman people around me think me to be, because I am too afraid. I'm afraid that they won't believe me. I am afraid that their eyes that once looked at me with love will look at me with pity, that they will act differently around me and treat me like a broken object that can be FIXED BACK TO NORMAL. But I am not something that can be fixed back to normal, because THIS is the normal me.
This is what I have been living with, or rather coexisted with for so many years.
Some days are worse than others, but I also have those good days you know. The days (and fleeting thoughts during my bad days) when I fight to remind myself how much I am loved and how much I will hurt the ones who love me if I leave this world.
Same here.
I feel exactly the same way
If the exact same way and it doesn't help that I only have one friend because no one else likes me
Basically my life story...
My life. And, like you, I don't know any other way to feel because it's "normal" and oddly familiar
That's the kind of depression I would like to have.....
The girl in the video is afraid of dying and wants to fight the depression.
I am afraid of living and literally every night I go to sleep I hope that I die during that night while sleeping. And every morning I wake up, being very sad about still being alive.
If you are depressive and you read this, do something against your depression. Being depressed feels horrible, it's worse than any physical injury I have ever had.
I've struggled with depression throughout my childhood and teen years and I am struggling with it now more than ever. This video made me not feel so alone.

I'm in the point of my life that I can see no light. This video hit me hard because that is how I'm feeling. I'm tired of it. I'm tired of fighting. Somedays I feel like just to fall asleep and never wake up. But I have to fight because my parents are fighting for me, with me. I have to defeat it but it's just so hard. I just want it to be over with.
Angel wow. My parents don't care. I've tried telling them about my anxiety and depression and they just say that I'm making stuff up. My mom yelled at me for trying to tell her. The first time I met depression was in pre-k. When I was 4 or 5. It's one of the only things I remember from when I was younger. I always knew I was different and hate myself for it. When I was in 2nd, 3rd, 4th grade I wanted to die but I didn't have the motivation to kms. Let's say that if a car was coming for me, I would move out of the way. I would let myself die. My hands are shaking while writing this. It is hard.
Sorry I am awkward I understand how you feel. My parents too didn't believe me at first but when I talked to my elder sister who's studying psychology, she explained my parents all about it. It gets hard I know. But you have to fight. I just want you to know that you are not alone. I'm with you and so are other people who care about you. Try talking to someone who understands about it and you'll feel a lot better. Stay strong.
I undersand i have depression too we are fighting together:)
Angel hunny i feel you... ive been like this for 3 months now...
I don't know you guys and you don't know me but seeing your comments here have made me feel that I have someone out there who can understand me and i know you understand me too. I just want to say that we are not alone. We'll fight this together
Anyone else there with depression who has forgotten almost everything about what happened during and before they were depressed??
I recently found a memory card with lots of pictures that I took just a couple of months before I got extremely depressed and I couldn't remember almost anything from all of those pictures... It was really scary.
Absolutely me. It's really scary and I'm afraid to forget all the beautiful memories and moments I'm having now
I also find it pretty scary... But I haven't even thought about possibly forgetting all that is now😰
Yeah - and it's terrifying. I've been depressed for so many years that my memory is gone. I can't remember my childhood. I can barely remember when I met my husband, 5 years ago.
Yeah, I don't even remember exactly when I got it, but I figure about 3 , soon 4 years ago. I remember the concept of feeling numb, alone etc. but I don't remember what I was doing or anything before. I think I was/still am so afraid of remembering being alone(my so called "friend" isolated me for 3 years, might have been why)
ITS SO STRONG
IT HURTS BEYOND WORDS
ITS INSANE
ITS UNSTOPPABLE
ITS SO HARD
😭😭😭😭😭
this video gave me anxiety because its so true. depression feels like something burning your happiness and making or stopping thisngs that you want to do.People always tell me I am happy or to stay positive but it only makes it worse when you think about it and you know how that feels.
It makes me so angry when somebody says to me, "Oh, cheer up already!" I wish I can.
...
But I can't.
+Paintzuri People who say that are not willing to understand our pain, but instead, they want to get over it and not deal with it because they just don't care.
French Doge Yea..
You can never get rid of depression, or grow out of it. but you can accept it and that doesn't mean ending it all, there are ways to overcome depression, surround yourself with people who will listen to you and understand what your going through.
When you are with people who really truly make you smile it gets better from there trust me xx
just know you DESERVE to be loved and anyone who says otherwise has issues.
And if you need anything talk to me.💖
Genevieve Clarke
It's ok to know that I deserve to be loved. That's theory. But in my case, nobody in my surroundings shows me love. They pretend to care, but they never come to me to ask me if I'm ok, or just to talk. They talk only when I'm coming to talk to them. I can't stand that hypocrisy.
If they really cared, I wouldn't be a ghost. But I am.
French DogeYeah I understand what you mean I've been in a similar situation, I could never ask for help and I used to have panic attacks and faint when I was younger, nobody talked to me in school and I was just considered as that loner girl in class that never did anything apart from faint. People only came over after I and they only pitied me. Even the teachers didn't really care it was as if they got fed up with me too. They were just 'doing their job'
Situations might be different but the pain is all the same.
I don't want to die. I don't cut. I'm not sad all the time. I'm not emo. But i have depression. I don't openly share it, usually. I'm not stereotypical. Depression isn't being sad, being suicidal, being emo. It's that feeling inside, that pit, that sinking feeling that's always with you and you know it can never leave. It's a part of you, part of your soul. It's always there. You can ignore it, but it lingers. Always.
And please don't commit suicide. It doesn't diminish the chances of life getting worse. It eliminates the chance of it getting better.
beautiful words
I feel you. I don't want to be rude but I feel like people around me mostly pay attention to the suicide and self harm aspect of depression and not this.
Echoisawkward yeah it doesn't help when somebody's carrying a table and your in their way and they say "just run her over." Or literally 10min after that somebody calls you stupid. Oh no, it doesn't end there. When you realize your crush has absolutely no interest in you and they tell on you bc you didn't go out in dodgeball. It can't be worse than that.
Btw that all happened it 30 min
Echoisawkward I think every human being has experienced real depression in their lives at atleast some point. It almost feels like you wouldn't be a human if you hadn't. Learning about the individual self comes with its pains. You hold on to thought patterns and doubt yourself many times. You get stuck in rigid routines and isolate yourself from people because you don't need to absorb their energy. It feels like the world is fake and buzzing about nothing since most of life we know seems like an illusion.
Everyone who feels depressed just needs to learn patience. Don't act harshly towards yourself. Be compassionate. Recognize that you're lonely, sad, and feel like you can't relate. Also recognize that even the smartest and most outwardly successful people feel it. It's something many of us feel and know inside. We shouldn't be afraid to talk about it openly and honestly.
Dear depression,
I know when you came you wouldn't be good.
My best friend was depressed, so I knew what was going on.
You told me to...to stay in my bed for a while.
Soon I could barely leave my bed. I was stuck there like a magnet.
And then you told me to hate the world. To not trust anyone. To hurt myself.
So I listened to you and hurt myself.
As those scissors ran across my arm I felt pain. Because people who go through depression wont always be numb.
Cleaned myself up and moved on.
You never left and I wasn't really surprised anymore. You stayed for months...to more months..
You told me I was ALONE.
But when you said that I thought "I am?" You said yes.
Pretended to be my friend, told me i was alone forever, that my friends didn't understand.
You crossed the line.
I'll keep fighting back. I'll keep giving in. Until this war is over.
I’m not afraid to die, and I’ve been going in and out of depression for a long time. Last night was really rough. I feel so emotionless but emotional all at the same time. It’s gotten to a point where I feel better when I am alone and sad, rather than happy. And I always feel like I’m alone, like nobody is around and I am living in a ghost town.
Depression to me. Is a big black hole you can never get out of and it keeps getting deeper and deeper slowly suffocating me..
It'll get better hon. We will get through this. I know how you feel
same here... and I can't even talk to anybody or just give up, because of my family and people around me...
For me I feel like I'm stuck in space. No one can hear me or help me because I'm too far from human contact.
I'll give you my hand to crawl out
yeah, I guess you're right... but you know I can't talk to them or anything. They don't hate because you don't hate your Family, but they don't like me as well. they told me as soon as I'm 18 I have to move out. I'm the black sheep.. you're absolutely right and I should appreciate that I have my Family around me, but it's not easier for me because of that...depression hits me just as much...
"This is your open letter, something to remember. We can still keep fighting even though life is not forever." ~ Open Letter by The Amity Affliction
Love that band.
Just what I was thinking when I read the title, such a good band
Yes.
The last two senren really hit me hard. I find myself going back to this video whenever things get rough and it helps a lot
I kept thinking these hardships would go away with time but this poem speaks volumes. Have been dealing with rheumatoid arthritis recently and keep thinking does it and will it ever end? It’s no joke to deal with this fight
This made me cry and I never understood depression.
I didn't either though a few of my friends had it. I now have a better understanding of how they feel.
Cherie Salazar I had it when i was on medication.....by far the worst feeling ever
I've had it for a while. Help please. Never go into depression, try to avoid jt
Delaney Mutch I have had depression for 7 years now and i´m only 15 years old, I know from experience that you can´t just "avoid it".., Depression is or can be such a big thing and or felling that you can´t just avoid it!
And may you never will sweet child
Ignorence is a blessing
She is the most beautiful woman I've seen all day.
She's beautiful! ^^
Her hair is on point
Then you havent seen any ladies today
Agreed
Koke Pasu yes she is so pretty on the outside and inside.
I can't believe soooo many people are going through a lot of stuffs 😢😢😢 and when I research more on the type of depression it saddens my heart to know that actual people who haven't done anything wrong goes through this. I hope you all get better and please remember you're never alone, many people are going through the same or even worse things and they are still fighting. They think of you and it makes them stronger, so please don't give up.💖💗💙💜❤︎
This video is so touching. I love how passionate she is and to anyone dealing with depression, good luck and remember you’re not alone ❤️
I feel her pain she is so powerful it hurts she is showing me I don't need to listen to those voices saying just stop it all. This women has shown me depression doesn't haft to win I believe in her and now she is a great inspiration to me.
Did you write this ?
Masa Waring obviously she didn't write it, she said she "feels her pain"
Nice fearless. Llama the comment and DAH name and profile pic boots ful
Addicted To Music thank you sir *llama bows*
Quinn Laballe hey read this article @200810 and pay a visit to a youtube channel called infinite waters diving deep
Holy shit... getting a little teary eyed. Wasn't expecting this to be so powerful.
I've been afflicted by depression for as long as I can remember, and this... this is amazing.
Agree
Holy shit is what I said to myself too. Depression can really eat someone up... I'm glad Tanya was able to get through it and share her story with such passion. I don't move people with my words, but I'm sure one day I can share my story my own way. I'm also only sharing because your comment was so close to what I was thinking and knowing that someone isn't afraid to share helped me. Thanks.
DongleSlongBog You think *this* is powerful? Go look up Shane Koyczan's speech called "To This Day"
DongleSlongBog SAME.
anyone else not want to live, but they’re too afraid to die? like sometimes if i’m doing something that’s making me choke myself on accident. i get so sick of everything and keep my position whenever i realize i’m choking, but i become so scared of everything that’ll change that i stop. i wake up every day feeling like hanging myself, but whenever i start to get ready to do it, i stop. i’m scared everything is gonna change and i don’t like change. i know it’ll probably make me happy and make me feel peaceful, but i still don’t do it. i know that some people in my life could be devastated and be hurt for the rest of their life, and i don’t want them to feel that way. i’d rather suffer every day and make them happy than make myself happy. btw i do not have any mental illnesses. i’m just saying these things because i relate to the video and have nobody else to tell... if you are still reading this then thanks
Wow this is truly beautiful. I sent this to my friend dealing with this right now he's suicidal and I've gone through just what he has and am trying to help him.
this made me cry do hard because she said everything im feeling and nobody ever made me feel this hopeful that one day things will get better
the other day i wanted to die so badly. when i was holding a knife up ready to stab myself i realized that i couldn't do it. I couldn't just give up that easily. i dropped the knife feeling useless, weak, and worthless because i was coward for not taking that opportunity to end all the pain.
+Genie Mae you're not worthless I understand how you feel. Have hope for today, tomorrow and the next day because one day it will get better. Never lose hope because once it's lost all is lost. You aren't alone in how you feel and please stay strong you are worth so much more than you could even know. Please if you can't do it for yourself do it for me.
+Genie Mae I knw his u feel because I did the same thing, I wanted to do it, but I dropped the knife because my body wasn't agreeing with what my mind was telling me to do. 😢😢😢
God is good for all the things He has done to help us, you all need to understand, God put us here for a reason. We are all important to Him and to the world.
+Genie Mae It gets better, I promise. And that feeling, when you suddenly realize you are actually and honestly smiling and you are happy again... that feeling is priceless. You just have to keep on fighting even though it feels like you can't anymore. You can.
I'm Depressed But People Say
"It Is A Phase"
"You Are Being Immature"
"You Are Being In Grief"
Ms. Creepypasta same :( finally someone like me
CPlays 27 Yay Im Not The Only One
Yoits Daisy exactly
I am I 11 year old girl who was depressed until my sister came out to me and helped me I am so so grateful for her in my life.
Always manage to shed a tear watching this. Gives me hope that there is life and happiness beyond somewhere depression.
Depression to me is a lot of work that gives me insomnia and making me not eat or have friends that makes me stressed out and scarred
You gonna be ok , I'm depressed for over than 10 years , I've learned to live with it . I hope you get better
Amal Nachit thx
i dont usually go to sleep until its around 1-3 a.m
I hardly feel like eating
And its gotten so bad that i have gotten social anxiety so it made me scared to make friends
I have only about 1-3 friends every school year since depression entered my life
My father left me, abandoned me, i had a very close friend who died. My whole family tree isn't close, everyone hates each other. Only my mom and siblings are together and they are the only people who truly care about me.
Ive been bullied and betrayed by friends plenty of times. Ive had to move schools and states so many times and every time it was meant for me to make new friends and having social anxiety made it way horrible.
So id say that I've been through a lot, my depression was HORRIBLE a few years ago but I've gotten better and I've been pretty happy lately, i have a nice house, nice school and a good family, 1 good best friend and i appreciate what i have. The only thing im worried about is, my future.
Overall im good. ^^
Sounds like anxiety. =/
•Emily•Way• my mom tells me she would hang me or stab me
I hate it when people use depression and other mental issues as a card for attention. "Oh, I have depression! (Giggle giggle!) I'm so sad!" "Oh, I have logic and common sense! (Giggle giggle!) I'm so tempted to slap you!"
(Not saying this girl is, it just popped into my brain)
my bestfriend is like that and i hate it.
Why is she your best friend then?
+Jas and Madi same honestly
Perhaps a whole lot easier to say &/or see... as a clear(er) &/or non-depressed mind? Maybe, just maybe.... that was the only thing they said to ANYONE that day.... week......... ? Just something to consider. (perspective/empathy) 'Cuz as far as what someone might be going through on their side....... you just never... know, ya know? =/ .... just sayin'. :)
I have been depressed for over 10 years. Sometimes I have a few 'happy' days but as soon as I think everything is great it just comes back again. I've talked to multiple professionals and have taken a lot of meds but nothing seems to work, it only gets worse.
Well, imagine...
There is a huge pit. At the bottom of the pit, there is death. There are monsters in that pit, calling to you, beckoning you, telling you to jump, to leave, to end it all, right there, right now. And you want to. You have jumped before, but then fought to climb back up. If you were alone, you would jump But on the surface, there are people. People you love, and they are holding you and fighting to keep you from jumping down, even if you don't know it. They love you, they really do, and you really don't want to leave them. But there are other people too. Some who dare to look you in the face, some who are hidden behind screens. And they try, with all their might, to push you into the pit. And sometimes, they succeed. And it's terrible, sick, awful, heart-breaking, and you try to pull them back up, but it's too late. To all the people who called me a liar, and emo, a goth, a hipster, I'm sorry you don't understand. And remember, never let those monsters get you. Not ever. Because, even if the numbers are few, there are people, and those people are fighting to keep you up, and fighting to keep you alive.
I almost jumped, till someone saved me 😭😭😭 another couple more minutes and I wouldn't be here today
Thanks for this I needed to read your comment I appreciate u taking the time to write it out ..one love
Cyber bullies and real life bullies are so annoying!
I cant slit my throat because my ant and I were the only thing keeping my freind alive and i cant leave him alone
This is so true, going through depression is like hell. I wish it didn't exist. Because of depression I cried everyday, I locked myself in my room, I started to hate myself, I started cutting and starving myself and thinking about/trying to attempt suicide numerous times. It took my grandpa's life and it almost took mine. I'm glad to say I'm all better now but I'm left with scars on my arms but that's okay because it reminds me of what I have overcome. Everyone be strong it will get better, I promise. :)
#thirdworldproblems amirite?
Good for you girl, may your grandma rip
Moonlessnight i relate to this so much. im struggling with depression right now too. stay strong :)
I love your avatar! One week friends!
Depression.
I remember when I first met you.
Not long ago.
You cam along with anxiety to ruin my life.
And it's only been a few months.
I'm only 12.
Soon to be 13 next month.
And I'm becoming sadder and sadder.
No one in my family understands.
They think that the way I act is only a phase.
That I'll get over it.
All I have are my friends.
The friends who my mother says "don't truly care about me".
The friends that help me get through this whirlwind of emotions and sadness.
The friends who show me that self harm and death is not the answer.
The friends who I can talk to, and I know I can trust them.
Depression, you've told me things, and made me do things, that I would have never thought to do.
Back when I promised myself, when I vowed that no matter what happens in life, I will stay strong, and I will not cut, I will not become suicidal.
You have lead me to break my promise.
To break my mother's heart.
To raise my voice to my older brother for the first time in my life.
To become a person I would have been afraid of.
I'm afraid of death.
I'm afraid of living.
I'm afraid of being loved, and being forgotten, thrown away like I never even existed.
I'm afraid of what will come next.
I'm afraid of myself.
Of what I'll do next.
Of what I'll think to do to myself.
I will stay strong.
I will not loose this battle.
I will fight.
Depression and anxiety will not win.
They may stay, forever even.
They may leave.
Either way.
They.
Will.
Not.
Win.
Sincerely, Alyssa.
To become a person I would have been afraid of.
I'm afraid of living.
I'm afraid of death.

I will stay strong.
I will fight.
I will not loose this battle.
Depression and anxiety will not win.

They may leave.
Either way.
They will not win.
-Sincerely, Alyssa.
Aw I started crying :'( that's exactly how I feel Im also 12
Alyssa Cisneros That was absolutely beautiful, motivating, and inspiring. Stay strong, please. You can do this. I believe in you.
Alyssa Cisneros YOU ARE A GREAT AND STRONG YOUNG LADY AND I BELIEVE IN YOU. DEPRESSION WILL NEVER WIN.
I'll be one of ur friends. 😊
I got depression a few years ago and it won't go and I got it because I hold on to my past to much. Because. All my loved ones keep leaving. I miss them dearly.
Depression feels like there is no need to be happy because you know that, that one moment of happiness comes once in a blue moon after feeling empty and sad for a long time and so you just get scared when you start feeling yourself again
I... am so sick of wearing that fake smile, every single day. I am sick of pretending to be okay. Anyone else out there like me?
Same here :(
Same
Yes once I picked up a knife my little sister saw me she asked what I was doing I said "Nothing I was going to cut an apple" but really I was thinking I want to cut myself I don't belong here. I guess today I feel happier I don't pick up knifes because I am scared of death, scared of killing myself. Now I believe I can do something in this world though, God put us on Earth because we all have a purpose. Anyone out there like me?
GirlyMacGamer We are opposites. I used to be scared and happy, but then it changed to wanting self harm. There are so many things that prove that this world is more harmful than good.
+GirlyMacGamer
here is an example of how to turn to the lord for salvation. It doesn't have to be exactly like this. Just speak to God from your heart and accept him.
Heavenly Father, have mercy on me, a sinner. I believe in you and that your word is true. I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God and that he died on the cross so that I may now have forgiveness for my sins and eternal life. I know that without you in my heart my life is meaningless.
I believe in my heart that you, Lord God, raised Him from the dead. Please Jesus forgive me, for every sin I have ever committed or done in my heart, please Lord Jesus forgive me and come into my heart as my personal Lord and Savior today. I need you to be my Father and my friend.
I give you my life and ask you to take full control from this moment on; I pray this in the name of Jesus Christ."
Amen.
At some point I thought she was about to rap
Ikr these rhymes are 🔥heat🔥
own it!
THIS WAS SO INSPIRING TO ME!! It was exactly what I needed right now. I'm having a really hard time because my depression has been acting up like crazy. Thank you so much, Boldly, for making me realize that I'm going to be okay, and I will get through this.
* wipes tear *
it's so sad that depression destroyed my life. At 9 years old I already had scars on my arm at 13 it was so much more. I didn't want to end my life I wanted to end my pain, but to this day I don't know how. I trying and trying to be strong but every day I feel like I'm losing the battle.
I relate so much to what u have send. I’m 13 and I have scars all over me. Just remember you have people like me that understand what you are going through. You have people like me, even though we don’t know eachother, that love you. I love you and don’t ever forget that.
Keep your head up 😁
We are bird of a feather.
aninxy 01 amen brother
I relate I had depression since I was 5 I started drawing on myself, started eating disorder, I have tried taking my own life when u was 10 im 13 and I ask myself "when is this gonna stop " I'm told that my problems aren't nothing and I'm slowly starting to believe my problem is pathetic and I'm just childish
My depression is getting worse and I feel like I can't do anything because now I'm getting mad at people who don't deserve my anger. I need help.
Peter Parker God loves you !!
Same...
Me too love. Me too
You’re worth it! Keep going beautiful, you have a reason to live
Peter Parker same😔
I have been facing depression lately and this probably ended it. I am so happy I saw this video it is amazing.
Wow she’s super strong!
I cannot sleep every night because my anxiety and depression comes. During the day I’m fine, but at night, they come to remind me that the world would be better without me. Then, I start thinking of times I embarrassed myself, feeling humiliated and more than sad. I try to ignore these feeling, but it won’t work. I decided to try meditation before I go to sleep, and it worked. It got me to forget about bad memories and thoughts. If I ever got reminded of it, I would be too relaxed to become stressed. I would just think nothing of it, and continue to relax. I’m only 12, but if anyone else has depression or anxiety, I strongly recommend meditation.
