We urge you to contact a local suicide crisis hotline if you are having suicidal thoughts. Please know that there are people who have faced the same hardships that you are facing, and can help. It gets better.
I still do sometimes. I have attempted taking my own life once before and i am sorry for what you had to go through. Its not easy at all to express how you feel or to confine to some one. I really felt your stance and i can say i know how you or your son felt but i can say that i have bottled so much over the years and it lead me to sin and suicide. Thank you for this video
@@terrysorange975 I am so sorry to you that you went through a lot. Try to focus on one little thing you did or happened to you in your life.And that thing will be be a lifesaver and mindchanger for you.Take goog care of yourself🌺🌺
Im in tears, alone and confussed. What i take from this; we all have a story and your story needs to be shared. My story IS NOT finishing now... Mr Seattle someone, your not alone mate. I hope you are well and not just fine??? Its your story mate. Own it..and share it. Bryan
As a teenager I tried to commit suicide. I acted out, no one noticed my sunny behaviour change. Back then it wasn't discussed. I'm now heading towards 70. All I needed was someone to hear me & help. Thankyou for all you do. Condolences for your Son.
God bless you and the fact you made it to see 70. I am 39 and have suffered with severe depression off and on sincerity my teens but it's mostly been minor. Right mow I'm majorly depressed and it's sad because you don't have to be a teenager for your family not to listen and to feel as if no one cares which is due to the fact we always need family an friendship (I sadly don't have) but I'm wiser and older enough now to lay EVERYTHING down and tell my family what it is and is going to be.
I’m a teenager, and tried to commit suicide several times in several places. I’ve faced a lot of things, but I’ve never faced love of my parents. My parents never told me “I love you, I’m proud of you,”. They’ve never had a deep conversation with me that would’ve helped me to trust them. I’m not talking to them. Everyday I come home I go into my room directly. I lock myself in and don’t leave for hours, and when I leave it’s just for eating something. Every time they’re having a family time with my brother I don’t join them. Cause I don’t feel safe near them. I get anxious, I get stressed when I’m with them. I don’t feel ok or good with them. I don’t think this is the way a child should feel near their parents. I really tried to talk to them, but because I don’t feel safe and listened I just can’t. They’ve never let me to go alone somewhere and be with my friends alone. They never let me to go to parties or change something in my life if I want to. They never let me do anything that would help me feel better, cause they don’t like it (Color my hair, do rearrangement, buy new things for room and other stuff). Every time I hear other other people telling me that “ oh, I told everything that happened to my parents” or “I trust and love my parents so much they’re so good” I want to cry. Cause I know that I’m not able to say those words by heart, or just say them as a real thing. That what makes me feel sad. In my every birthday when I blow the candles I make a wish. And that wish is “ I wish my parents will understand me and be very good with me, I wish I’ll have a good relationship with them”. Writing it in tears.
@@firuzaaliyeva1023 firstly Big Hugs. I do understand how you feel. I urge you to call a helpline or speak to a counsellor. No child need go through this alone. 1 day you'll be old enough to leave, always bear that in mind. Maybe find an online support group? Your words moved me to tears as it closely resembles my own experiences. Never had we are proud of you, or we love you. A teacher took my acting out & gave me knowledge on Human Rights. To this day I remember the difference that made to my life. I started to write in a journal. It helped. Life will get better. You will feel better. Many blessings
I was suicidal, I was so close to ending it all because I felt like a failure, I hadn’t failed before, not at that scale, I was 24. growing up I was given the best of everything a middle class child could get, I didn’t spend a lot of time with my dad because he was always busy with business, my dad was this perfect picture of what a man was to me. Lucky for me he was there when he’d found out what I was going through, my family helped too. I found purpose again, depression changed me, I think I’m a lot stronger mentally, I just turned 26 and still striving for success while enjoying the moment.
Same here. It could be exact my story xD I'm 26 too and my problem was/is to make it as good as my dad because he's like the perfekt, mentally strong dad u know. And you have to be as good as him because otherwise u think you've failed. Keep it on brother greetings from Germany you are not alone
I am glad for you. I wish I could say the same. I am 26 and I am failing like I've never had in my life. I have everything a middle child could ask for. I am in therapy. My mother tries to talk to me regularly. My father is hardly presnet in my life. I feel like I have no purpose. I hardly care about taking care of basic jeeds like eating, brushing teeth, taking showers. I am either in a constant state if emotional suffeeing or numbing myself with youtube. I am suicidal on a daily basis. I told both of my parents that I amsuicidal daily. My mother tries but she can't stop herself from giving me pieces of advice... These are good pieces of advice, but I feel like she's asking something of me on top of me being on a constant stress and I can't bear listening to these. I told my father I have daily suicidal thoughts and he told me that We all have battles that we can't escape. Why? Why not? He said that while driving me to a train station and it's like the only time we spoke about it in 2 months. Not a single telephone from him. I don't want to blame them, I know they're trying, but on the same time I can't help feeling hurt and abandoned. I am sad. I am in therapy and I don't think there is hope for me. Maybe I am just meant to die and that all there is to it.
preach man, i am trying too (27), some days are just hard mentally and I have no drive to do anything, but id never kill myself, i wanna experience as much as I can
@@marcinkarczmarz8281I'm not gonna pretend like I can fully understand your feelings, but I just want to say that it's okay to not be okay. I have no idea how long you have struggled with these feelings or how long you will, but please keep trying to live. I have several friends who I love dearly that struggle with depression and I would be shattered if they took their lives. You don't need to be perfect. It is not your fault that you feel this way. You don't have to 'get or be better' somehow in order to deserve to be loved. Just do what you can, when you can. My friends have said that when they are at their worst moments, they feel like everyone would be better off if they were gone. That will never be true. You cannot sink so low that your life does not have value. Your life will always have value. I'm rooting for you. If you ever want someone to listen to you please contact me. I'm just a random dude on the internet but I will listen as best as I can.
This shouldn't be locked behind a sensitivity filter, which makes a lot of people click off. This is a message that needs to be shared loudly, without censorship. It's a sad day when viewer discretion is advised for positive messages. We can't just keep shielding everyone from every tiny little thing dude.
I started to cry now at this comment. I feel so very lonely, sick and alone. I have been pleading God to come and fortify me because all people left me behind. (Except maybe my mum and dad, but I am already 31... they can give me momentarily help but I cannot understand why no relation of mine works on the longer. I am putting mch effort. And I have been going a year to psychoterapy, paying each time a day's earnings and accepting the faults she pointed out in me, having been working hard on them.)
Instead of asking my kids, “How was school?”. I ask “what was the best part AND worst part about your day?”. it has revolutionized our daily conversations. I also share mine.
Why didn´t I have that idea when my kids were young???? REALLY VERY SMART way to sharpen one´s awareness... AND share your own thoughts too... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👈 ...
Nice Mam . My mom from starting , when we were young she told me and my sister that whatever happens in school , whether good or bad , you will share it to Me. And we always used to share our school experience everyday , even if we got scolding from teachers (if we did a mistake ) , we would tell her. My mother listens to them till now , Im 16+ now 😀 , it really helped me . I became really depressed during my early teen age years when I was 11 or 12 , because of bullying . My mom really helped me to overcome this 😭😭😭 I love her so much 😀❤️ My message is that asking these questions from your kids will really make a deep bond between both of you . May you stay happy always and remain healthy . You are the best mom ever ✨
Watching this in bed with tears flowing down all over my face. Having lost my 65 year old mother to biopsy in hospital. 24 days ago, feels like yesterday.
My brother committed suicide on July 27,1986. It’s still fresh in my mind. I was 8 months pregnant with my daughter. He did it in a field that was directly across the street from my house. I was so pregnant I was afraid to show any emotion for fear of having that baby right there.
It's spoken some times when it happens, but no change happens because the people don't try to change the future of it happening again. It's like the history saying, if you don't learn the leason you're doomed to repeat it.
As a suicidal kid I know how it feels like being helpless. When I say I’m fine when I’m not really fine but I can’t tell my parents how I actually feel because they would never understand me. And only blind can’t see that things are not fine with me. But we all pretend that everything is fine. Talk to your kids. But never attack them for their feelings. Or they would never tell you about their feelings.
I can understand you not wanting to talk to your parents, but do you have any other older role model who you feel you could talk to? A sports coach or teacher, for example. Do you have a crisis hotline you can call, like in Australia we have Lifeline and Kids Lifeline.
I get bullied online everyday about the way i look and i had to take happy pills because of how it affected my mental health. Bullied since i was 6 years old until high school too. Its easy for people to tell me to ignore until they read what people write to me everyday
I get sick of people saying to just ignore bullies when they obviously never were bullied or they wouldn't say that EVER. Ignoring it is not fixing any problems!
hey, im sorry to hear that people bully you and have been doing so since you were 6 years old. I was bullied from elementary school until i was 22 years old. I started taking happy pills when I was a sophomore in high school until I was 23 so just about 7-8 years. im now doing a lot better and in graduate school studying to be a therapist. you dont deserve to be bullied, no one does. people can be so ruthless especially online in the comments since they can hide behind a screen. i am wishing you the best! this might sound stupid but stay strong and be genuine to yourself! 🤍
I am very sorry to hear that, I am fighting with this kind of perpetrator introject, too. But I learned this: you are never alone and the way someone abuses you, even if it's your roots, it is THEIR calling card, not yours. They aren't strong enough to deal with themselves and think they need to make someone small to release frustration. All that abuse is one huge lie and we all deserve better. Your father was broken before you came into the picture, and he didn't fix himself, and neither did the adults before or around him. We can only move forward and learn from that.
I don't dare fault this man for his son's suicide. On the other hand, thinking that you are doing the right thing when you are making a mistake doesn't necessarily mean that the consequences are not your fault.
As a parent you are responsible for your child. While you may not be doing the wrong thing intentionally you still have to live with the consequences of your decisions
My brother took his own life and from that moment on, our lives were and are never the same again. My story though is a lot different from the majority of suicide stories. Michael wasn’t depressed … on the contrary, he was always so happy go lucky , in fact his nickname was ‘smiler’ by his friends & colleagues. Michael was a policeman and absolutely loved his job , he was so proud to be part of the police force. He was the youngest of us 4 siblings and was such a good looking young man. He had a partner and 2 young children. We didn’t know it at the time, but he & his partner were going through a rough patch. She was a bit run down and hadn’t wanted sexual relations with him for the past 4 months. Things went on and he had to train a young police cadet, which meant they were together 8/10 hours a day. I’m not justifying in any way what happened next but not getting any affection at home probably caused what happened … he started to ‘think he had ‘ feelings for her … she was definitely coming onto him … She started to text him … he wasn’t one to text much anyway but one morning while he was having a shower his phone got a message and his partner heard it. She read it … it was the girl saying thanks for the dinner the day before and that she missed him. My SIL went loopy and told him to get his things & leave. She called their kids , boy of 7 & girl nearly 3, and told them daddy didn’t love them anymore. My mum called me saying Michael was at hers and was in a state. I spoke to him …. This was 4/5 hours before he committed suicide … he told me he hadn’t been unfaithful at all yet … but that he had feelings for this girl … In the meantime my SIL put it all on FB and then phoned him saying she was gonna phone his chief and tell him about the ‘story’ between him & the girl , and to ‘be ready to lose his job because when they found out it would be instant dismissal ‘ Just before he left my mum’s, he received a text from the girl saying you must ‘deny deny deny’ … that she didn’t want to lose her post with the police … and that she didn’t really have feelings for him … it was to pass her course. Shortly after, Michael was banging his head against the door and saying he had made the worst mistake ever. After some time he then left and got in his car. Mum asked him if he was ok and he said yes. That was the last she saw him alive. He shot himself in nearby woods. My brother wasn’t depressed. Drs say he had a brainstorm … 🤷♀️ All I know is we lost our baby brother. He was 37. In his right mind, he would never have done what he did. A few months beforehand, his friend took an overdose of pills. He was devastated and said “ poor bloke … he’s left 3 small children… how come?? “ I miss you Michael 🦋 So sorry to have been so long everyone … I needed to get this out of me 😢
I’m so very sorry hun 😞 I’m only 20, and been going through severe depression the last couple months… it’s truly my mom and older sister who keep me pushing and here. I know your brother loves you and your mom with all his heart, and he’ll always watch over you if it’s possible on his side ❤️ Please stay strong and surround yourself with love and joy, don’t let your traumas eat you alive like me, I haven’t experienced nearly anything as horrible, yet I cry almost daily when I’m alone because I just feel so weak mentally. But one day people like us who suffer in silence most days are gonna be rewarded greatly when we’re gone… I’m sure of it. Much love to you and your family for real ❤️❤️❤️ His children had a great father, I know that they’ll inherit his good heart. RIP to a hero 🙇♂️
@@VinsmokeWanji thank you so much for your kind words, I truly appreciate it … I wish you strength, comfort and serenity … that you can soon feel better 🍀🍀
As a teen here is a pro tip. Whenever your talking to your kids don't make it end in a scolding. The kid needs help not another scolding. Nothing hurts more than being scolded by the person you are seeking help from
There's one thing that hurts more: Scolding and then saying 'I care about you.' Then repeating this sequence. Ig it depends on how one looks at it. I find it somewhat funny.
@@staircasefunction9124 Happened far too many times to me this year, it's pointless to talk to my parents for help now. I don't know what to do anymore.
I just cried my eyes out watching this. You are an unbelievable man sir. Your Son forgives you. Thank you for talking about this because you are going to save a lot of people.
I lost a friend to suicide. Last time I had a chat with him I made him laugh. Edit: I’ve lost another one, didn’t really know him much but we had chats nearly everyday. Both died from bullying......
To be honest I just say "I'm fine" because I don't want my mom to start criticizing every single one of my life decisions, saying I never go out, saying how dirty my room is, pointing out how my grades has been dropping, and just killing my self esteem in general.
Overly critical parents are excruciating to live with. Does she ever show any compassion to you? I hope so. Sometimes when a parent constantly criticizes you it’s a projection of what they feel about themselves. Stay strong. Rise above it. Someday you can leave and lead your own life. You will be okay.
Tbh everything is same with me too. Although I don't have my own room , I have to sleep with my mom. You won't believe but I can't even cry out. I just cry silently :')
J-time What you have just said is what is needed for all Parents to hear. Many parents are themselves under tremendous pressure in today's society and just don't realise that they are not taking time to calm down and really Listen to the problems their children or teens are going through in the outside World as WELL as at home if no one takes time to All calm down and really talk and listen to each other. You would be a perfect spokesperson for all others as you know how it is ! I wish I had listened more to my teenager and UNDERSTOOD their anguish as you have just pointed out the mistakes I made and to which I'm deeply sorry for. Thank you for your brave and honest depiction of what it feels like when you are put under pressure by a parent or parents. God Bless You and hope all you wish for comes true. 🙏
They are so blind thinking that kids are happy and dont have problems, that dont see how do we feel LITERALLY DYING, D Y I N G inside Im 14, I shouldn't even think about killing myself, but I do
@@BiaRosy Once there was a time when I thought that I should better die. But now I'm like why to take my life just for two fools. If they don't care, I won't either. Now, all I wanna do is to leave this house and move on to somewhere far away from them and find a job and live on my own. I don't care if I'll be poor. I'll try my best and live on my own at least 🙂
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, dr.sporesss. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
I was having so much suicidal thoughts 18 years ago as a teenage. I suffered severe anxiety and mental disorder years ago. Got diagnosed with bipolar. Spent my whole life fighting bipolar. Not until my girlfriend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them
YES very sure of Dr.benfungi. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
100% agree I used to have Psychosis and paranoid thoughts like "people thinking about me talking about me etc. Very odd behavior after getting off Adderall from 7-16. Antidepressants at 18-29. 31 now. I took way to much, but took about 20g of Gold caps (Psilocybin containing mushroom) I analyzed my entire life. The emotions that came out helped me understand behavior etc more. Wont ever need to do it again because I'm happy and contempt forever, but I wish more people did this to alter their perception of reality. Would help with healing much trauma
I am a dad with two teenage sons.i am a strict dad but i love my sons so much n spend much time with them.but it is not easy dealing with them.there were tough arguments, cries and tears but thank God i can say that i am sure that my sons will not do any horrible things that worry can worry me because since their early ages i have been teaching them about what is right n what is wrong before God.if our children know the truths of God, we as parents will have the least worry about our kids.
My son is 15 years old. Then one day he stopped playing games with his friends and was mostly in his room. I didn’t realized that he was depressed. He was telling his cousins and friends about suicide. Luckily someone told us what happened and we talked to him. It is serious.
Teach your son how to fight. Whatever or whoever comes into our lives, we must use our brain first to think logically to make rational decision. Anger, love and affection are emotions that can easily cloud reason.
@@rayschindler7451 I can feel that, but forcing you to tell it to your parents will solve this problem for sure. You're not weak, you're strong, so don't be afraid to tell it.
@Ray Schindler in my country bullies are not a thing thats common and for that i thank god, but for you my friend i must tell you never give in to their pressure and open up with someone whoever that may be ! If not your parents than your grandparents since sometimes they listen more but never say you are worthless
I never cried so hard in my life, because now i'm a dad of a 3 years old girl and the love a feel for her is so great, so vast, so immense, that it hurts in my chest. Thank you for tell your story, i felt just a tiny bit of your pain and it's already too much.
My parents were both distant AND didn't provide for me. I was born just to inherit family name, they didn't even want me. Imagine not being wanted but still being planned pregnancy.
With my son I could see he wasn't fine. I asked him always if he was ok. He would show me a broad smile and would say, I'm good, mama. Sometimes we spoke and he told me how hard life was for him. We tried helping him with making life nicer,easier, happier for him. And sometimes it worked, other times it didn't. After lots of tests through psychiatrist and specialists my son was diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2014. In May 2016 he lost his battle to this horrendous illness. I knew my son wasn't okay and still I couldn't stop him from jumping that day 😔
My husband killed himself a year ago. He couldn’t bear letting anyone down, and he had had a crisis at work and thought he had let everyone down. He hurt many people. He had no idea how many people loved him. I miss him.
My son hanged himself at 21.I found him I tried CPR.I was too late.I closed his eyes and held him.His mum died of cancer 6 years before at 43.He missed his mother too much.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I struggle with suicidal thoughts myself. It took me until I was in my 30s to be able to tell my mother. At least in my case it's often hard to even talk when I'm at that point. I've been to levels where I was to screwed up to kill myself. With that being said please don't blame yourself. Depression is an illness. And his suicide was no more your fault or his then if he had a heart attack in the middle of the night and wasn't able to seek help in time. And for anyone else reading this keep this in mind. One of the most dangerous times for a depressed person is right when they start feeling better. It can take a long time to fully come out of an depressive episode. If they don't pull it together quick enough their negative emotions often turn the returning energy towards self harm.
I know this might sound dramatic but last month I tried to commit suicide by hang myself but shits doesn't go well. Today, I watched this video and look at this comment somehow I saw the image of my father as if the picture changed to his face. I wondered what if I did what I wanted to do last month? What if I am no longer exist? How my father would react? Honestly, I don't know what would happen in the future, but if I'm given with a strength, I hope I won't do the same mistakes. Thank you for sharing your story, your son was a strong person too.
@@TheRingmasteR23 I’m sorry to hear that and we are complete strangers, but every life matters. People will listen-if they don’t, I know I will. For whatever reason, don’t throw your life away, it’s a privilege and a journey. Things will get better if you keep fighting. There’s so much left to explore and discover in this world. If you can’t continue living for yourself, choose to live for others. Whatever you’re going through must be miserable, but others around you may be going through something too. After having experienced being at your lowest point, strive to pick yourself back up in slow steps. You must be hoping there will be a ray of light-a person to take your hand and guide you, but one less person will be able to fill that role for someone else if you take your life. Avoidance does nothing, but perpetuate the never ending cycle of hopelessness. Anyways, I wish you and anyone who reads this success. Keep fighting to live. Many fight to survive, don’t waste this opportunity.
One thing not mentioned here: When I was a teen, the number one reason my peers said they couldn't go to their parents when they had a problem was because they expected their parents to react with hostility.
i thought the same too. I have had problems at school like these kids these days struggle with but it wasnt that big of a deal to me all i had to do is speak up for myself even tho i got beat speak to someone if no one takes u seriously deal with it yourself but in no world should u take your life , u r not special everybody has their problems so u deal with yours and struggle to live.
to me it was because my father was a single parent raising 3 kids while also working a 40 hours a week sometimes more and me not wanting to bother him with my problems.
@@klajdisinanaj3977 The last thing you should say to someone with depression is to "Deal with it" and "Everyone haves struggles". I see you don't know shit sadly. But still dare to comment about it.
The worst thing about me is that, I smile while I’m sad, someone is yelling at me. I just want to live by my own way. I know it’s hard. Parents don’t understand me. I want them to understand that, maybe I don’t have good grades in my exams but I’m alive, I’m with them. And I love them
"I'm not a psychologist, nor an expert. I'm just a guy who lost his kid, and spent the last year and a half trying to figure out why." This man is much more qualified to speak of this topic than any psychologist.
I lost my son four months ago. I've read a few books about suicide since he died, and they mention that there is a desire to play detective, to try to figure out why. I have an idea, but in the final analysis, it doesn't really matter if I'm right or not. It's not going to bring him back.
if you need help go talk to your friends, family and people you trust, life can be great and will get even better after the pandemic ends so do not waste it and life have a lot of good experiences and memories that are gonna make you think it was all worth it, a lot of people who tried to end their lives remember that they changed their mind and are happy to be alive, if necessary search for help in the internet and if you can afford it call a therapist "ending your life is a permanent solution to a temporary problem" also do not be shy to call for help.
@@matheodaniel1364 Though I never really got the use of “ending your life is a permanent solution to a temporary problem”, are not all problems by that same standard also temporary. Is it saying only a temporary solution is valid? If someone were to perceive being caged and tortured is that sentence any motivation to preserve? To which the hope of life seems lesser than death.
If everyone who needed help wouldnt say im fine all the time, that'd be great. Just like how women tell you "its ok" or "im fine" when they are totally not and will later call you insensitive for not recognizing that its not really ok
I was a suicidal teen. I asked my parents for help, they didn't believe me and said it was a phase, they blamed it on hormones and growing up They told me to just be strong Then they left and said goodnight I self medicated, I self harmed. Age 15 I was an alcoholic at its finest I did drugs and smoked. Bullied people, took my anger out in terrible ways. This was my teen years. I am now 21 years old, I've healed, I have a family, a life and a hope. I'm so glad I didn't end it all back then This is my story.
Thank you! So glad that you healed and are now feeling better. I am sure you will understand your kids in a better way as you know how that feels. Kudos to you and best of luck for your future!
Thank you. I just lost my dad to suicide. And I cant shake the guilt that I shouldve known he was hurting. I should have been there. I will absolutely take your advice when it comes to my kids. And Im so sorry for your loss. 💔
@@akshorts2115 he had saved an old morphine prescription. And took whatever he had of that, plus 2 40oz bottles of rum. I'm sorry about your friend. And I hope they'll be ok. 💔🙏
I’m a teenager and I wish I could have a better relationship with my dad. I wish I could ask him for help maybe ask him how to deal with girls or sum. But I never had that relationship with my dad.
this might be weird coming from a random guy on the internet but if you ever feel down or need anything please reach out to me and I will be happy to help.
My son toook his life 4 months ago I found out he was being bullied at work 😢 never in a million years I thought he would leave us 😢😢😢 love and miss him so much
I would correct that to "I'm not fine but I don't feel comfortable talking about it with YOU". This guy hit the nail on the head. It's so important for parents to make themselves unapproachable to kids. My parents felt unapproachable. Judgemental. Constantly made me feel like if I opened up they would just emphasize how I failed to meet the expectations they set. Even now as an adult I struggle to be open with them, and have to remind and force myself to be, mainly because I have been fairly successful in my adult life and therefore there's nothing that they could possibly make me feel inadequate about. My stepsister took her own life though after battling an extremely hard period in her life. I feel like my parents failed her the way that this guy feels he failed his son.

@@fireyblazemaster3253 I was homeschooled my entire life and it's not all it's cracked up to be. And I have taken online classes through college and some professors dont care about their online student's so unless teachers receive special training all online classes could cause more problems than they solve.
I think school appears to be the problem because it's the first occasion you are leaving your home and face society. It's not about the school itself. Society is full of d***heads, and you need to be ready and prepared.
Childhood is sort of a molding process. It’s where are your damaged kinks develop and it’s up to you later on in life if you want to properly tackle your deep rooted trauma
I'm 34, I have a 3 yr old and my wife's pregnant with our 2nd. I lost my mother when I was 12, my father became aggressive and abusive to the point he would yell scream, put his hands around my throat and hit me. There were a lot of times I thought about ending it. One time in particular were I had my gun out on the table while I was on my computer. I was 27 at thay time. I spent hours crying going back and forth on if I should do it or not. Obviously I didn't do it. But, that was the toughest moment of my life, and I am glad I did not go through with it! If you read this and your at a point where you believe it's all over for you, don't do it, it can get better, it won't be easy at all especially if you have no one, but it can get better I promise you!
I'm 17, no friends, miserable and just feel hopeless, killing myself is a big cloud in my mind, but I know that if i do, I would cause more pain to others around me than the pain I'm feeling right now. I still have hope I'll get better soon.
im in the same but im turning 16 april 5 i have one friend 2 parents and 3 siblings and i know it would be selfish to take my life out of theirs so i wont theres always something to live for remember that
I usually do not write on social media. However just want to share something with you guys. I am father of three young man 24,22,20... also a veteran with 25 years of service as a Special Forces operator, meaning I have seeing a lot. Here is my quote " we are not depressed, we are distracted ".... do something for yourself: write 10 things that you are very grateful, after you finish, think about it and put them on order, most important first and so on. Write that list on a piece of paper and put the paper by your bed, so when you wake up that is the first thing that you see. When you wake up, read, think and be grateful.....just by starting your day like that, the perspective is different, is a positive one. That paper is a working document , you can add more, you can change the position, etc, etc. I am currently on Afghanistan but you can reach me if you want.... just by telling where I am I can talk you that your problems are minimum compared to where I see around here, think about it. Buen Camino.
Nobody told me how to fight my bullies. I told my father and he said "well defend yourself", like "well dont be sad" type of feedback. I wanted to end it all hundreds of times. And teenagers, it continues after school. There a bullies in adulthood, at work, office or construction site. The best way to get out of it is to find sincere and true friendships, people that respect you for who you are, no fake no pretend, because we need you, you are awesome and you matter. And I know you will say "but no one I know cares about me" well think this way: how can I know your existence? How can I find you? Get loud, get known, reach out, get out, We exist and we need you.
Well idk how everyone is feeling but I hope EVERYONE READING THIS is feeling great, Because you are great and unique in positive ways(: Blessings to you reading this.
This is why I didn't give up. I know my parents would cry so I didn't do it. Edit: Thank you so much for the 2.8k likes. I definitely don't deserve it. I'm not that brave to stay this long. For those who say that their parents are the reason why they wanted to give up, me too. My family is toxic, and pressure me into everything. I'm still alive for them because I knew it would break them up because I'm the eldest, and it is obvious that they don't know how to raise a child. It's hard to raise a child. Although I'd like to take my own life, I wouldn't want them to go through what I had to go through. If you don't have any good influences in your life, then cling to every single good influence in your life. I'm loosing all my reasons one by one, day by day. And unfortunately, my fear of pain in death is stronger than my will to die. So I'm still here after 7 months. I'm still in a low place, lower than before. In a way, I'm glad that I'm still here.
Everyone, dont do it. If you wanna have a chat i will always make time up for it, send me a dm on @yorickdz and i will always answer. Even if you are in hard times. Please talk. With anybody. Even your neighbour or somebody. Please. It will make life so much easier. Have a chat.
@@elapse______2557 Most Arab parents put a lot of pressure on their kids thinking that the pressure will push them forth but what they don't realise is the amount of pressure that they put on the kid will only bury the kid deeper into the ground. Most of the Arab parents avoid talking about certain subjects hoping the kid would never know about, which adds to the kid's hunger of curiosity in terms would lead them to seek the knowledge from unknown untrusted bad resources, the kid later on finds themselves in a trap they didn't know they had fallen in and talking to the parents seems useless and they're only afraid that the parents would yell at them scold them ..etc. so the kid stays down in the hole all hopeless and have no one to turn to, whilst the parents think that everything is fine by avoiding the subjects that include: Suicide, LGBT+, Belief, Deppression, Anxiety, PTSD and the list goes on ... I'm grateful to have parents who are open minded enough to talk to me about theses things and show me the right way to deal with Sexual harassment, blackmailing, any type of harassment in general. I've seen many people around suffer from parents pressuring them and abusing them and it just hurts to see such a thing. I hope frome the bottom of my heart that you're okay :)

I'm a dad to an 8yr old and 4yr old. I watch this every now and then (maybe just twice a year) to keep this in my mind, front and centre. Thank you for this brave and powerful message.
Worst day of my life was my son’s failed attempt when he said after, “I didn’t think anyone would care.” It’s been over 15 years since I heard that sentence & I am crying as I write it. I had no clue.
Yea. thats how we feel. everyone so busy that we feel left out. so we think " why do anyone else care. but im happy your son still here and now you know and you guys are working on it everyday.
My son attempted suicide at 14. This hit home hard. He thankfully failed his attempt and doing much better today at 16. But I never saw it, especially the night before he attempted. He was acting so happy. He even wanted us all to do a movie night together. The next morning in the hospital I asked him about it and he said something that will forever haunt me. He said, "I just wanted one last nice night together with you before I died." Please talk to your kids, even if they 'seem' okay, especially if their mood changes to positive when that's somewhat out of their normal behavior.
I constantly encourage my nine year old son to keep being brave and tell me when he’s struggling. He’s in counselling at the moment, because he opened up to me about to how he’s been struggling with anger lately. If I am ever busy, and he wants to talk to me because he’s sad, I will always drop everything for him. The other day, I was meant to meet my friend in town but my son wanted to talk, so I was 2 hours late to meet my friend, who was beyond annoyed at me, but who cares. Kids need to know that you will always be there for them the moment they need you.
Thank you for sharing. I was on the other side of this, my dad killed himself when I was 11 years old. Now as a 56 year old man, I always ask that question and make time for anyone
Personally I feel the reason we don’t tell our parents these things is they won’t understand what we mean exactly if most of us were to tell our parents something was wrong or we were sad they would think it was over something childish and stupid so we never approach them about our problems
That's exactly how I feel. I remember a time I was so depressed, I didn't eat meals, I would do nothing but lay in bed from morning to night, and just silently have mental breakdowns daily, and one day I heard my mom on the phone calling me "moody"... Also my family knows I have social anxiety yet they say things like "just go out more", "talking to people isn't even that difficult", and "how hard is it to do this simple thing??" Safe to say I'm trusting no one in my family with any of my secrets.
@@naritruwireve1381 I understand your pain my friend. I cannot say I know it from experience but I suffered alot when I was younger. More than most around me ever knew. I don't know If you'll accept my words, but I struggled for 7 years. One day I decided to give my life to Jesus. He sought me first, as he does. But I made the decision to be his. Please reach out to him. Through him our wrongdoings will be forgiven, and he will mend you. Piece you back together as he did me. Things won't always be perfect, they'll possibly be quite hard, but you will be sheltered under the wings of the Lord.
Even worse, many parents will instantly assume it's their fault and react badly because they themselves are extremely insecure/broken. They may blame the child or berate them/abuse them more. I personally know of two children in this situation. Sadly here in NZ, there's little I can do about it. Unless the child shows physical evidence of severe physical abuse, they won't remove the child from parental care. So they grow up abused with zero confidence and a history of self-harm if they survive at all. All I can do is try to offset their parental abuse with encouragement and support, and when they are old enough to be allowed to separate from a parent, support them getting onto their feet with no parent.

@@TobyBanci he does have a point, if you're not sharing a bond with your parents its hard to open up, especially if they just barge in and start wsterboarding you in questions. I guess, timing is really key but taking time is probably the most important.
A generation that wasn’t listened to, is trying to listen to a generation that wants to be heard, creating a generation that will finally listen when the time comes.
I’ve always believed that a father makes his children strong but at the same time no one wants to accept how little it takes to make someone consider suicide
I hope you realize that by telling your story you are telling your son “I’m sorry” every time you share. I am so sorry for your loss and am inspired by your bravery in sharing your story. Thank you and God continue to bless your relationships.
I'm not young anymore. I dont have children, wasn't able but ill say this coming from someone who is probably struggling mentally Now more than ever, especially if You Yourself didn't grow up with parents who had or not the ability to emotionally connect. If You just dont get it, do your best to educate yourself about mental illness. For Some I reckon, they just arent capable of fighting anymore. R.I.P. Ryan❤
as a teenager, we say “we’re fine” because we are hiding something, it’s embarrassing, we’re scared how you will react, we’re scared what you’d do, we don’t wanna talk about it
Especially when you live surrounded by people with limited or outdated morals, awareness, knowledge, and education...Either your parents are too worried that you wouldn’t survive or they’re in denial of the fact that they don’t know exactly what to do.
@LawofAttraction this man is trying to help others, he can’t turn back time but he is telling the truth. As he said please learn from the things I didn’t do right. I can tell you from my own experience my son completed Suicide 30 years ago this month, there is not a day I wish I could have saved him. I understand this mans heartache.
@LawofAttraction i can only feel sorry for you, and hope that you see the sadness inside of you dear. May you find a good path in life instead of this one filled with hatred and rage, try to stop hating your self, forgive yourself.
I did hide my problems from my sons but it got to a stage where I started to open up to them and visa versa. Kids aren't stupid and knew I was struggling. We have a very open relationship and I think that helped when my oldest through a trauma has PTSD, social phobia etc and he was at times not wanted to live but we talked and talked and I listened.
I am literally listening to this man crying, thank you for sharing your experience, wisdom and strength. I pray for you and your family healing journey ❤❤.
One of the worst things parents say to their kids is, "Be grateful. Others have it worse" Saying that isn't going to fix the problem, it will only make it worse. Your child came to you for help for a reason, they won't understand your bills, or your problems at your job. They are a child. You need to put yourself at their age and realize that their problem is a lot bigger than you think.
I totally agree as that is the problem I've been facing the last few years that others have it worse. That it has come to the point were my relationship with my parents is almost gone the only times we speak are at the dinner table and most days we dont even do that, and the only thing that's said is from my dad about his work days. The only times we actually talk is when I have a breakdown about how Im feeling about school or lost pets I've grown up with and that i miss they almost newer get into how or family relationship is going. So the only things I've actually had a relationship with is my pets because they are always there for you no matter what, and they are one of the reasons I've been able to go on.
This annoys me. Its the truth, other kids are starving, or being sold. If youre commenting on a youtube video, you have it easy. I think my generation is just a bunch of snowflakes who cant stand up for themselves. Grow up, not everything is about you.
@@sebasthecrab1345 Yes but knowing that isn't going to stop depression. Yes, I acknowledge the fact that many kids are dealing with worse, but telling that to your kids isn't going to cure their depression. It's gonna make them feel that their feelings don't matter just because others have it worse. I think that would make you a bad parent.
@@maplemaple626 I was depressed for quite a while. I told my parents, and they explained that in the real world nobody cares. They told me to grow up and be mature. So i did. But, i guess that doesnt work on people who are sensitive.
You won't have to "drop everything your doing" if you have regular deeper meaning conversations. Show that it is OK to share your feelings in certain circles. My mom did an awesome job at that on her own. Through multiple bad relations. Love you mom!
I onced tried to open up and they didn't think I was serious. They thought it was another joke. Then I left class because I found out my best friend killed himself and I told my teacher I felt too depressed to stay. My parents come home and barged in my room and basically interrogated me and I felt so uneasy and unsafe in my own room. To all the parents that read this, please treat depressed teens with compassion.
Hey bro, stay strong out there, I know it's hard when you can't share your struggles with someone else, but try to seek out help and understanding, and remember that there are people who value you more that they appear to
Hey, I’m spreading the word about this, because it kind of changed my life and I hope it helps, because it may feel like you have no one you can trust, nobody you can talk to, nobody to open your feeling up to, but let me tell you something. I took a risk once. When I was at my lowest. I’m so glad I did. I felt like nobody I knew cared about me and that when I died I would die having no friends. But what did see, was I took a risk, I opened myself up to a discord group one time, and it was a moment I still haven’t forgotten, because at the time I felt like I had nobody left. But they actually cared about me. People, who I had barely even talked to before, actually cared about me, they didn’t know who I was, what I looked like, or whether or not anything I was saying was true, but they helped me, encouraged me, and most importantly, they acknowledged me and listened. The internet is a wonderful thing because it has made humanity so much more connected than ever. We have grown to hate more, but we can empathize more too. Someone will listen to you, and if you need I can as well if you like.
If you are a jolly person like me, who jokes all the time😶, your parents will of course think you are joking. Not considering it happens with you, but when i speak something i make fun of myself 😂, though i don't feel bad, it's within the family and love within it is more important. If they are not understanding, then it leave you with the responsibility to understand your mistakes and your family, just don't feel seperated with your family.
When I was 5 I found my 13 year old brother hanging it totally messed my life up I'm still feeling it. When people do this it's the ones still alive who suffer. If you're having thoughts of leaving this world don't speak up you're not alone and you are loved.
It’s a very strange concept to me that a man who runs away from his feelings is considered more of a man than the man who is willing to face his feelings.
I think when a man is looked up to as a rock, for other people to be reassured, it makes a lot of sense that he doesn't show how scared he is. But he needs an outlet somewhere. If you're not a leader then other people are not looking to you for reassurance and you have a lot more freedom (often) to be vulnerable
If men showed such feelings early in our species history, we'd not be here, period. Human nature was this way long before you or I , or anyone, for thousands of years came along. Its foolish and naive to think can evolve overnight. Don't go on like its unnatural for us to be this way.
will 2583147 thought he explained it pretty well. It wasnt that he was running from his feeling but rather he felt it was a way to protect them. It’s a common feeling for a dad to want to protect them from all harm, but there has to be a balance. I’m opposite in that I’m super emotional without being a snowflake. But I’m an artist and I have two little girls so I’m a different animal altogether lol.
I once yelled at my dad that I didn't want to live anymore. He dropped down beside me, said "oh?" and just listened. Ever since that day we have talked about mental health, and 14 years later I am still alive. Because he was there. Listening ❤
Well done for speaking up, letting others know you’re, or you were struggling. Life is a lot harder for some than it is for others, I’ve struggled for over 30yrs to keep the dark thoughts from taking over my mind.
You're so lucky man im so sad and jealous of other people like i always cry when i see comments like this if i do this to my dad hes just gonna beat be to death man.
My dad isn't there for me, but that doesn't mean I'm lonely, I made up for the lost time with him by talking with my mother, but I never talked about my suffering, but if I do need her, I know she is there for me, she always will be, and I trust my mother to fulfill that roll 💜
My older brother took his own life, he did two terms in Afghanistan and he was never the same. He used to talk to us a lot, I have 3 brothers, we would all huddle up and he would talk to us. How we need to help each other grow but no one looked at him and thought he had a problem, he had PTSD. He was always the strong one, always. I miss him a lot and it still hurts. I'm the eldest now and I constantly talk to my brothers. About little things and big things, whatever it is, I get a call before my mom and dad does. I make it a point I'm there for them. RIP Vince, I got our familys back now. See you in heaven.
That's a sad story and I'm terribly sorry for your loss. Stay strong and stand firm, the torch has been passed onto you now. And then, one day, you will meet your brother again. Sooner than you think!
I’m so glad we have always been so open with our kids and blessed with the ability to connect with them. I know they still hold onto things but we deal with it. They are never alone in their fight and we just have to let them know.
As a mom I share my things with my son all the time. It's very important for me to be his friend and part of his school life. He has personal space and freedom that when he doesn't want to be in his friendlist, I'm ok that time. I have shared many things and few things about my struggle and failure also.
Stay strong man, but if you think you need help try your best to get some your own way. Don't force yourself in going with this pain all alone to keep the appearances like I do because you are too concerned about bothering others with your own personal life struggles and problems. Keep it up!
I know how you feel friend. Life is just one disappointment after another. People judge me all the time. I have a dream career in mind but I have low self-esteem. I'm plagued everyday by the thought of any bad that could happen.
Hope you're feeling better, if you're struggling, ring some helplines. Imagine how kind you would be if your friend was feeling the way you do and be kind, really kind, to yourself 💖💗

You can’t fake depression because if you were to do that then you must be scarred deeply in some fundamental way so then you are depressed

As a teenager I tried to commit suicide. I acted out, no one noticed my sunny behaviour change. Back then it wasn't discussed. I'm now heading towards 70. All I needed was someone to hear me & help. Thankyou for all you do. Condolences for your Son.
God bless you and the fact you made it to see 70. I am 39 and have suffered with severe depression off and on sincerity my teens but it's mostly been minor. Right mow I'm majorly depressed and it's sad because you don't have to be a teenager for your family not to listen and to feel as if no one cares which is due to the fact we always need family an friendship (I sadly don't have) but I'm wiser and older enough now to lay EVERYTHING down and tell my family what it is and is going to be.
the only thing/being/deity that can save you , is Jesus Christ.
Bless you my dear, I wanted to when 16. I cried because I know it wasn’t me, it was the environment.
I’m a teenager, and tried to commit suicide several times in several places. I’ve faced a lot of things, but I’ve never faced love of my parents. My parents never told me “I love you, I’m proud of you,”. They’ve never had a deep conversation with me that would’ve helped me to trust them. I’m not talking to them. Everyday I come home I go into my room directly. I lock myself in and don’t leave for hours, and when I leave it’s just for eating something. Every time they’re having a family time with my brother I don’t join them. Cause I don’t feel safe near them. I get anxious, I get stressed when I’m with them. I don’t feel ok or good with them. I don’t think this is the way a child should feel near their parents. I really tried to talk to them, but because I don’t feel safe and listened I just can’t. They’ve never let me to go alone somewhere and be with my friends alone. They never let me to go to parties or change something in my life if I want to. They never let me do anything that would help me feel better, cause they don’t like it (Color my hair, do rearrangement, buy new things for room and other stuff). Every time I hear other other people telling me that “ oh, I told everything that happened to my parents” or “I trust and love my parents so much they’re so good” I want to cry. Cause I know that I’m not able to say those words by heart, or just say them as a real thing. That what makes me feel sad. In my every birthday when I blow the candles I make a wish. And that wish is “ I wish my parents will understand me and be very good with me, I wish I’ll have a good relationship with them”. Writing it in tears.
@@firuzaaliyeva1023 firstly Big Hugs. I do understand how you feel. I urge you to call a helpline or speak to a counsellor. No child need go through this alone. 1 day you'll be old enough to leave, always bear that in mind. Maybe find an online support group? Your words moved me to tears as it closely resembles my own experiences. Never had we are proud of you, or we love you. A teacher took my acting out & gave me knowledge on Human Rights. To this day I remember the difference that made to my life. I started to write in a journal. It helped. Life will get better. You will feel better. Many blessings

I was suicidal, I was so close to ending it all because I felt like a failure, I hadn’t failed before, not at that scale, I was 24. growing up I was given the best of everything a middle class child could get, I didn’t spend a lot of time with my dad because he was always busy with business, my dad was this perfect picture of what a man was to me. Lucky for me he was there when he’d found out what I was going through, my family helped too. I found purpose again, depression changed me, I think I’m a lot stronger mentally, I just turned 26 and still striving for success while enjoying the moment.
Same here. It could be exact my story xD I'm 26 too and my problem was/is to make it as good as my dad because he's like the perfekt, mentally strong dad u know. And you have to be as good as him because otherwise u think you've failed. Keep it on brother greetings from Germany you are not alone
I am glad for you. I wish I could say the same. I am 26 and I am failing like I've never had in my life. I have everything a middle child could ask for. I am in therapy. My mother tries to talk to me regularly. My father is hardly presnet in my life. I feel like I have no purpose. I hardly care about taking care of basic jeeds like eating, brushing teeth, taking showers. I am either in a constant state if emotional suffeeing or numbing myself with youtube. I am suicidal on a daily basis. I told both of my parents that I amsuicidal daily. My mother tries but she can't stop herself from giving me pieces of advice... These are good pieces of advice, but I feel like she's asking something of me on top of me being on a constant stress and I can't bear listening to these. I told my father I have daily suicidal thoughts and he told me that We all have battles that we can't escape. Why? Why not? He said that while driving me to a train station and it's like the only time we spoke about it in 2 months. Not a single telephone from him. I don't want to blame them, I know they're trying, but on the same time I can't help feeling hurt and abandoned. I am sad. I am in therapy and I don't think there is hope for me. Maybe I am just meant to die and that all there is to it.

@@marcinkarczmarz8281I'm not gonna pretend like I can fully understand your feelings, but I just want to say that it's okay to not be okay. I have no idea how long you have struggled with these feelings or how long you will, but please keep trying to live. I have several friends who I love dearly that struggle with depression and I would be shattered if they took their lives.
You don't need to be perfect. It is not your fault that you feel this way. You don't have to 'get or be better' somehow in order to deserve to be loved. Just do what you can, when you can.
My friends have said that when they are at their worst moments, they feel like everyone would be better off if they were gone. That will never be true. You cannot sink so low that your life does not have value. Your life will always have value. I'm rooting for you.
If you ever want someone to listen to you please contact me. I'm just a random dude on the internet but I will listen as best as I can.

Instead of asking my kids, “How was school?”. I ask “what was the best part AND worst part about your day?”. it has revolutionized our daily conversations. I also share mine.
very good idea, thanks for sharing
Thank you!
Why didn´t I have that idea when my kids were young???? REALLY VERY SMART way to sharpen one´s awareness... AND share your own thoughts too... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👈 ...
so true. thanks for sharing
Nice Mam . My mom from starting , when we were young she told me and my sister that whatever happens in school , whether good or bad , you will share it to Me. And we always used to share our school experience everyday , even if we got scolding from teachers (if we did a mistake ) , we would tell her. My mother listens to them till now , Im 16+ now 😀 , it really helped me . I became really depressed during my early teen age years when I was 11 or 12 , because of bullying . My mom really helped me to overcome this 😭😭😭 I love her so much 😀❤️
My message is that asking these questions from your kids will really make a deep bond between both of you . May you stay happy always and remain healthy . You are the best mom ever ✨
Watching this in bed with tears flowing down all over my face.

My brother committed suicide on July 27,1986. It’s still fresh in my mind. I was 8 months pregnant with my daughter. He did it in a field that was directly across the street from my house. I was so pregnant I was afraid to show any emotion for fear of having that baby right there.
I’m sorry. Hope life turned out ok for you.
Sorry for your loss, and thank you for sharing! Sending love your way ❤️

Yeah😭😢true

it means that we have to be a better parent someday
suicide is such a big killer and its only spoken about until a life is lost.
not really, it is spoken and can be any time someone want's for no reason :v
harry bradley life has the biggest kill count, yeah what about that?
No your mind is the killer
Sooooo true! 😢
It's spoken some times when it happens, but no change happens because the people don't try to change the future of it happening again. It's like the history saying, if you don't learn the leason you're doomed to repeat it.
As a suicidal kid I know how it feels like being helpless. When I say I’m fine when I’m not really fine but I can’t tell my parents how I actually feel because they would never understand me. And only blind can’t see that things are not fine with me. But we all pretend that everything is fine. Talk to your kids. But never attack them for their feelings. Or they would never tell you about their feelings.
Why u sucicidal?
Hey reincarnated Kurt you are wise beyond your years little bro
@@dylangabriel2703Most od the time there is no reason we can consciously point too. In hindsight it’s often drugs and a poor diet though.
I can understand you not wanting to talk to your parents, but do you have any other older role model who you feel you could talk to? A sports coach or teacher, for example. Do you have a crisis hotline you can call, like in Australia we have Lifeline and Kids Lifeline.
Hope you are doing okay! God sees and love you.
I get bullied online everyday about the way i look and i had to take happy pills because of how it affected my mental health. Bullied since i was 6 years old until high school too. Its easy for people to tell me to ignore until they read what people write to me everyday
I get sick of people saying to just ignore bullies when they obviously never were bullied or they wouldn't say that EVER. Ignoring it is not fixing any problems!
hey, im sorry to hear that people bully you and have been doing so since you were 6 years old. I was bullied from elementary school until i was 22 years old. I started taking happy pills when I was a sophomore in high school until I was 23 so just about 7-8 years. im now doing a lot better and in graduate school studying to be a therapist. you dont deserve to be bullied, no one does. people can be so ruthless especially online in the comments since they can hide behind a screen. i am wishing you the best! this might sound stupid but stay strong and be genuine to yourself! 🤍

My father was verbally abusive. It’s a miracle I didn’t kill myself .I still hate myself at times . I’m now 67
Stay strong, that's what you did and not everyone has that power
Mr Paul Grimm me too. i’m 17. how did you move on.
Lionel Sanchez this is really disappointing to hear someone say.
You're probably married and have your own family now, I hear that heals things so why do u still think that way?
I am very sorry to hear that, I am fighting with this kind of perpetrator introject, too.
But I learned this: you are never alone and the way someone abuses you, even if it's your roots, it is THEIR calling card, not yours. They aren't strong enough to deal with themselves and think they need to make someone small to release frustration. All that abuse is one huge lie and we all deserve better.
Your father was broken before you came into the picture, and he didn't fix himself, and neither did the adults before or around him. We can only move forward and learn from that.
He couldn't save his son's life. But that kid definitely saved his.
Yeah !
@i'm happy. wait what?? Calm down bro....are you suicidal? What happened?
@i'm happy. Are you here 😌
@i'm happy. hey you okay?
i'm happy. Hey man, you alright? You know everyone here cares about you.
It's not this dads fault. He thought he was doing the right thing. And now he is making a huge difference. Thanks.
I don't dare fault this man for his son's suicide. On the other hand, thinking that you are doing the right thing when you are making a mistake doesn't necessarily mean that the consequences are not your fault.
As a parent you are responsible for your child. While you may not be doing the wrong thing intentionally you still have to live with the consequences of your decisions
My brother took his own life and from that moment on, our lives were and are never the same again.
My story though is a lot different from the majority of suicide stories. Michael wasn’t depressed … on the contrary, he was always so happy go lucky , in fact his nickname was ‘smiler’ by his friends & colleagues. Michael was a policeman and absolutely loved his job , he was so proud to be part of the police force. He was the youngest of us 4 siblings and was such a good looking young man. He had a partner and 2 young children. We didn’t know it at the time, but he & his partner were going through a rough patch. She was a bit run down and hadn’t wanted sexual relations with him for the past 4 months. Things went on and he had to train a young police cadet, which meant they were together 8/10 hours a day. I’m not justifying in any way what happened next but not getting any affection at home probably caused what happened … he started to ‘think he had ‘ feelings for her … she was definitely coming onto him …
She started to text him … he wasn’t one to text much anyway but one morning while he was having a shower his phone got a message and his partner heard it. She read it … it was the girl saying thanks for the dinner the day before and that she missed him.
My SIL went loopy and told him to get his things & leave. She called their kids , boy of 7 & girl nearly 3, and told them daddy didn’t love them anymore.
My mum called me saying Michael was at hers and was in a state.
I spoke to him …. This was 4/5 hours before he committed suicide … he told me he hadn’t been unfaithful at all yet … but that he had feelings for this girl …
In the meantime my SIL put it all on FB and then phoned him saying she was gonna phone his chief and tell him about the ‘story’ between him & the girl , and to ‘be ready to lose his job because when they found out it would be instant dismissal ‘
Just before he left my mum’s, he received a text from the girl saying you must ‘deny deny deny’ … that she didn’t want to lose her post with the police … and that she didn’t really have feelings for him … it was to pass her course.
Shortly after, Michael was banging his head against the door and saying he had made the worst mistake ever. After some time he then left and got in his car. Mum asked him if he was ok and he said yes. That was the last she saw him alive. He shot himself in nearby woods.
My brother wasn’t depressed. Drs say he had a brainstorm … 🤷♀️
All I know is we lost our baby brother. He was 37.
In his right mind, he would never have done what he did. A few months beforehand, his friend took an overdose of pills. He was devastated and said “ poor bloke … he’s left 3 small children… how come?? “
I miss you Michael
🦋
So sorry to have been so long everyone … I needed to get this out of me 😢
I’m so very sorry hun 😞 I’m only 20, and been going through severe depression the last couple months… it’s truly my mom and older sister who keep me pushing and here. I know your brother loves you and your mom with all his heart, and he’ll always watch over you if it’s possible on his side ❤️
Please stay strong and surround yourself with love and joy, don’t let your traumas eat you alive like me, I haven’t experienced nearly anything as horrible, yet I cry almost daily when I’m alone because I just feel so weak mentally. But one day people like us who suffer in silence most days are gonna be rewarded greatly when we’re gone… I’m sure of it.
Much love to you and your family for real ❤️❤️❤️ His children had a great father, I know that they’ll inherit his good heart. RIP to a hero 🙇♂️

As a teen here is a pro tip.
Whenever your talking to your kids don't make it end in a scolding. The kid needs help not another scolding. Nothing hurts more than being scolded by the person you are seeking help from
There's one thing that hurts more:
Scolding and then saying 'I care about you.' Then repeating this sequence.
Ig it depends on how one looks at it. I find it somewhat funny.
@@staircasefunction9124 Happened far too many times to me this year, it's pointless to talk to my parents for help now. I don't know what to do anymore.
and dont get mad at them when they refuse to tell you anything, or hide emotions, it’s only going to make it worse
my dad in general

@@dodo-ch9bx that is really rude you know.
To be honest I just say "I'm fine" because I don't want my mom to start criticizing every single one of my life decisions, saying I never go out, saying how dirty my room is, pointing out how my grades has been dropping, and just killing my self esteem in general.
Overly critical parents are excruciating to live with. Does she ever show any compassion to you? I hope so. Sometimes when a parent constantly criticizes you it’s a projection of what they feel about themselves.
Stay strong. Rise above it. Someday you can leave and lead your own life.
You will be okay.
Tbh everything is same with me too. Although I don't have my own room , I have to sleep with my mom. You won't believe but I can't even cry out. I just cry silently :')
J-time
What you have just said is what is needed for all Parents to hear.
Many parents are themselves under tremendous pressure in today's society and just don't realise that they are not taking time to calm down and really Listen to the problems their children or teens are going through in the outside World as WELL as at home if no one takes time to All calm down and really talk and listen to each other.
You would be a perfect spokesperson for all others as you know how it is !
I wish I had listened more to my teenager and UNDERSTOOD their anguish as you have just pointed out the mistakes I made and to which I'm deeply sorry for.
Thank you for your brave and honest depiction of what it feels like when you are put under pressure by a parent or parents.
God Bless You and hope all you wish for comes true. 🙏

Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, dr.sporesss. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac.
He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Is he on instagram?
Yes he is. dr.sporesss
I was having so much suicidal thoughts 18 years ago as a teenage. I suffered severe anxiety and mental disorder years ago. Got diagnosed with bipolar. Spent my whole life fighting bipolar. Not until my girlfriend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them
YES very sure of Dr.benfungi. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
100% agree I used to have Psychosis and paranoid thoughts like "people thinking about me talking about me etc. Very odd behavior after getting off Adderall from 7-16. Antidepressants at 18-29. 31 now. I took way to much, but took about 20g of Gold caps (Psilocybin containing mushroom) I analyzed my entire life. The emotions that came out helped me understand behavior etc more. Wont ever need to do it again because I'm happy and contempt forever, but I wish more people did this to alter their perception of reality. Would help with healing much trauma
How do i reach out to him? Is he on Instagram
“I'm just a guy who lost his kid.”that hit me.
straight up. Said he wasn't a psychologist or an expert he was just a dude who lost his kid😭
It's so heartbreaking... suicide is such a horrific thing ;(
I am so sorry. Hope you find peace and strength to move on. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
💔😭
I am a dad with two teenage sons.i am a strict dad but i love my sons so much n spend much time with them.but it is not easy dealing with them.there were tough arguments, cries and tears but thank God i can say that i am sure that my sons will not do any horrible things that worry can worry me because since their early ages i have been teaching them about what is right n what is wrong before God.if our children know the truths of God, we as parents will have the least worry about our kids.
My son is 15 years old. Then one day he stopped playing games with his friends and was mostly in his room. I didn’t realized that he was depressed. He was telling his cousins and friends about suicide. Luckily someone told us what happened and we talked to him. It is serious.
Teach your son how to fight. Whatever or whoever comes into our lives, we must use our brain first to think logically to make rational decision. Anger, love and affection are emotions that can easily cloud reason.
I'm 16 and it's very tough to say how we feel at getting bullied at school etc
@@rayschindler7451 I can feel that, but forcing you to tell it to your parents will solve this problem for sure. You're not weak, you're strong, so don't be afraid to tell it.

I really wish that my dad had realized this. He did so much to provide for me in material ways, but was so distant from me on an emotional level.

My parents were both distant AND didn't provide for me. I was born just to inherit family name, they didn't even want me. Imagine not being wanted but still being planned pregnancy.

With my son I could see he wasn't fine. I asked him always if he was ok. He would show me a broad smile and would say, I'm good, mama. Sometimes we spoke and he told me how hard life was for him. We tried helping him with making life nicer,easier, happier for him. And sometimes it worked, other times it didn't. After lots of tests through psychiatrist and specialists my son was diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2014. In May 2016 he lost his battle to this horrendous illness. I knew my son wasn't okay and still I couldn't stop him from jumping that day 😔
I feel you

My husband killed himself a year ago. He couldn’t bear letting anyone down, and he had had a crisis at work and thought he had let everyone down. He hurt many people. He had no idea how many people loved him. I miss him.
I am so sorry for you lost. God bless you
My son hanged himself at 21.I found him I tried CPR.I was too late.I closed his eyes and held him.His mum died of cancer 6 years before at 43.He missed his mother too much.
I hope u find peace on life💙
That's tragic I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I struggle with suicidal thoughts myself. It took me until I was in my 30s to be able to tell my mother. At least in my case it's often hard to even talk when I'm at that point. I've been to levels where I was to screwed up to kill myself. With that being said please don't blame yourself. Depression is an illness. And his suicide was no more your fault or his then if he had a heart attack in the middle of the night and wasn't able to seek help in time. And for anyone else reading this keep this in mind. One of the most dangerous times for a depressed person is right when they start feeling better. It can take a long time to fully come out of an depressive episode. If they don't pull it together quick enough their negative emotions often turn the returning energy towards self harm.
I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope you will find your peace
I know this might sound dramatic but last month I tried to commit suicide by hang myself but shits doesn't go well. Today, I watched this video and look at this comment somehow I saw the image of my father as if the picture changed to his face. I wondered what if I did what I wanted to do last month? What if I am no longer exist? How my father would react? Honestly, I don't know what would happen in the future, but if I'm given with a strength, I hope I won't do the same mistakes.
Thank you for sharing your story, your son was a strong person too.

@@TheRingmasteR23 I’m sorry to hear that and we are complete strangers, but every life matters. People will listen-if they don’t, I know I will. For whatever reason, don’t throw your life away, it’s a privilege and a journey. Things will get better if you keep fighting. There’s so much left to explore and discover in this world. If you can’t continue living for yourself, choose to live for others. Whatever you’re going through must be miserable, but others around you may be going through something too. After having experienced being at your lowest point, strive to pick yourself back up in slow steps. You must be hoping there will be a ray of light-a person to take your hand and guide you, but one less person will be able to fill that role for someone else if you take your life. Avoidance does nothing, but perpetuate the never ending cycle of hopelessness. Anyways, I wish you and anyone who reads this success. Keep fighting to live. Many fight to survive, don’t waste this opportunity.

One thing not mentioned here: When I was a teen, the number one reason my peers said they couldn't go to their parents when they had a problem was because they expected their parents to react with hostility.
i thought the same too. I have had problems at school like these kids these days struggle with but it wasnt that big of a deal to me all i had to do is speak up for myself even tho i got beat speak to someone if no one takes u seriously deal with it yourself but in no world should u take your life , u r not special everybody has their problems so u deal with yours and struggle to live.
...And they weren't wrong. A lot of parents DO react with a ton of hostility to stuff like this.
to me it was because my father was a single parent raising 3 kids while also working a 40 hours a week sometimes more and me not wanting to bother him with my problems.
@@klajdisinanaj3977 The last thing you should say to someone with depression is to "Deal with it" and "Everyone haves struggles". I see you don't know shit sadly. But still dare to comment about it.

The worst thing about me is that, I smile while I’m sad, someone is yelling at me. I just want to live by my own way. I know it’s hard. Parents don’t understand me. I want them to understand that, maybe I don’t have good grades in my exams but I’m alive, I’m with them. And I love them
"I'm not a psychologist, nor an expert. I'm just a guy who lost his kid, and spent the last year and a half trying to figure out why."
This man is much more qualified to speak of this topic than any psychologist.
I lost my son four months ago. I've read a few books about suicide since he died, and they mention that there is a desire to play detective, to try to figure out why. I have an idea, but in the final analysis, it doesn't really matter if I'm right or not. It's not going to bring him back.
Finally someone gets it that "I'm fine" doesn't really mean "I'm fine"
if you need help go talk to your friends, family and people you trust, life can be great and will get even better after the pandemic ends so do not waste it and life have a lot of good experiences and memories that are gonna make you think it was all worth it, a lot of people who tried to end their lives remember that they changed their mind and are happy to be alive, if necessary search for help in the internet and if you can afford it call a therapist "ending your life is a permanent solution to a temporary problem" also do not be shy to call for help.
@@matheodaniel1364 Though I never really got the use of “ending your life is a permanent solution to a temporary problem”, are not all problems by that same standard also temporary. Is it saying only a temporary solution is valid? If someone were to perceive being caged and tortured is that sentence any motivation to preserve? To which the hope of life seems lesser than death.
If everyone who needed help wouldnt say im fine all the time, that'd be great. Just like how women tell you "its ok" or "im fine" when they are totally not and will later call you insensitive for not recognizing that its not really ok
@@matheodaniel1364 most of the people choose suicidal main intentions is not ending their life but to end their pain.
So why would you say fine if your not?? It makes no sense

this might be weird coming from a random guy on the internet but if you ever feel down or need anything please reach out to me and I will be happy to help.

Burying a child is one of the worst pains a parents will ever have to suffer
The smaller the coffin, the heavier it gets
I buried my father who died last year April😭😭😭
I'm 21 now
Left with my grandpa mom n 13 y/o brother
Dying daily is the worst pain the child has to suffer , knowing that no one will listen
one of my classmates passed away a few days ago. i feel bad for his parents..

Thank you for sharing. I'm so so sorry you lost your son to suicide. My heart breaks for you. I wish you healing, in time. ❤
I’m so sorry for your loss. I pray the Lord Jesus will comfort your heart and give you peace. You have a friend in Jesus.
May your son rest in peace
As a former teenager "Im fine" is usually slang for "I'm not fine, but its nothing I want to talk about right now"
Im alright is one too one of mine infact...
I would correct that to "I'm not fine but I don't feel comfortable talking about it with YOU". This guy hit the nail on the head. It's so important for parents to make themselves unapproachable to kids. My parents felt unapproachable. Judgemental. Constantly made me feel like if I opened up they would just emphasize how I failed to meet the expectations they set. Even now as an adult I struggle to be open with them, and have to remind and force myself to be, mainly because I have been fairly successful in my adult life and therefore there's nothing that they could possibly make me feel inadequate about. My stepsister took her own life though after battling an extremely hard period in her life. I feel like my parents failed her the way that this guy feels he failed his son.
@@k-isfor-kristina I’m in my late forties and can totally relate!
No, it’s ‘I’m not fine, I just don’t feel like I can talk to anyone because I don’t want to disappoint you or open up about my feelings because it will make me feel like a failure.’
@@k-isfor-kristina im going through this right now (im a teenager with parents like that)... i hope i end up successful like you in the future and not like your stepsister... may she rip. either way both of our parents failed.
It seems like school is a massive catalyst for childhood issues.
Sphynx Mumma Which is why I think there should be no school but online!
@@fireyblazemaster3253 I was homeschooled my entire life and it's not all it's cracked up to be. And I have taken online classes through college and some professors dont care about their online student's so unless teachers receive special training all online classes could cause more problems than they solve.
I think school appears to be the problem because it's the first occasion you are leaving your home and face society. It's not about the school itself. Society is full of d***heads, and you need to be ready and prepared.
Childhood is sort of a molding process. It’s where are your damaged kinks develop and it’s up to you later on in life if you want to properly tackle your deep rooted trauma
if there was no school it would be something else. It just happens that every kid goes to school (in our society at least..)
I'm 34, I have a 3 yr old and my wife's pregnant with our 2nd.
I lost my mother when I was 12, my father became aggressive and abusive to the point he would yell scream, put his hands around my throat and hit me.
There were a lot of times I thought about ending it.
One time in particular were I had my gun out on the table while I was on my computer. I was 27 at thay time. I spent hours crying going back and forth on if I should do it or not.
Obviously I didn't do it. But, that was the toughest moment of my life, and I am glad I did not go through with it!
If you read this and your at a point where you believe it's all over for you, don't do it, it can get better, it won't be easy at all especially if you have no one, but it can get better I promise you!
Yeh, that's why I sometimes glad I don't own a gun. Too easy to make an impulsive decision.
My dogs are the only thing keeping me in this world.

I'm 17, no friends, miserable and just feel hopeless, killing myself is a big cloud in my mind, but I know that if i do, I would cause more pain to others around me than the pain I'm feeling right now. I still have hope I'll get better soon.

I usually do not write on social media. However just want to share something with you guys.
I am father of three young man 24,22,20... also a veteran with 25 years of service as a Special Forces operator, meaning I have seeing a lot. Here is my quote " we are not depressed, we are distracted ".... do something for yourself: write 10 things that you are very grateful, after you finish, think about it and put them on order, most important first and so on. Write that list on a piece of paper and put the paper by your bed, so when you wake up that is the first thing that you see. When you wake up, read, think and be grateful.....just by starting your day like that, the perspective is different, is a positive one.
That paper is a working document , you can add more, you can change the position, etc, etc.
I am currently on Afghanistan but you can reach me if you want.... just by telling where I am I can talk you that your problems are minimum compared to where I see around here, think about it.
Buen Camino.
Nobody told me how to fight my bullies. I told my father and he said "well defend yourself", like "well dont be sad" type of feedback. I wanted to end it all hundreds of times. And teenagers, it continues after school. There a bullies in adulthood, at work, office or construction site. The best way to get out of it is to find sincere and true friendships, people that respect you for who you are, no fake no pretend, because we need you, you are awesome and you matter. And I know you will say "but no one I know cares about me" well think this way: how can I know your existence? How can I find you? Get loud, get known, reach out, get out, We exist and we need you.
I'm so sorry for your loss. And thankful that you're helping other parents. ❤
"how they feel is how they feel, you can't fix how they feel." THANK YOU
yes.
Well idk how everyone is feeling but I hope EVERYONE READING THIS is feeling great, Because you are great and unique in positive ways(: Blessings to you reading this.
Its true people think talking and activities are gonna change feelings. They do not. The person who feels it changes it.and the road to that varies.
Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity.
Simone Weil
@Krazy WhiteBoy He can't fix how we feel. It's us ourselves who need to find a way to fix it, with support from others and outside help.
This is why I didn't give up. I know my parents would cry so I didn't do it.
Edit: Thank you so much for the 2.8k likes. I definitely don't deserve it. I'm not that brave to stay this long. For those who say that their parents are the reason why they wanted to give up, me too.
My family is toxic, and pressure me into everything. I'm still alive for them because I knew it would break them up because I'm the eldest, and it is obvious that they don't know how to raise a child. It's hard to raise a child. Although I'd like to take my own life, I wouldn't want them to go through what I had to go through. If you don't have any good influences in your life, then cling to every single good influence in your life.
I'm loosing all my reasons one by one, day by day. And unfortunately, my fear of pain in death is stronger than my will to die. So I'm still here after 7 months. I'm still in a low place, lower than before. In a way, I'm glad that I'm still here.
I would have taken my life ten times over now but i couldn't do that to my mom i get it..

Me too bro my parents expect a lot from me I got Arab parents and my parents are also very old I don’t think they could take it
@@elapse______2557 Most Arab parents put a lot of pressure on their kids thinking that the pressure will push them forth but what they don't realise is the amount of pressure that they put on the kid will only bury the kid deeper into the ground.
Most of the Arab parents avoid talking about certain subjects hoping the kid would never know about, which adds to the kid's hunger of curiosity in terms would lead them to seek the knowledge from unknown untrusted bad resources, the kid later on finds themselves in a trap they didn't know they had fallen in and talking to the parents seems useless and they're only afraid that the parents would yell at them scold them ..etc. so the kid stays down in the hole all hopeless and have no one to turn to, whilst the parents think that everything is fine by avoiding the subjects that include: Suicide, LGBT+, Belief, Deppression, Anxiety, PTSD and the list goes on ...
I'm grateful to have parents who are open minded enough to talk to me about theses things and show me the right way to deal with Sexual harassment, blackmailing, any type of harassment in general. I've seen many people around suffer from parents pressuring them and abusing them and it just hurts to see such a thing.
I hope frome the bottom of my heart that you're okay :)

I'm a dad to an 8yr old and 4yr old. I watch this every now and then (maybe just twice a year) to keep this in my mind, front and centre. Thank you for this brave and powerful message.
Worst day of my life was my son’s failed attempt when he said after, “I didn’t think anyone would care.”
It’s been over 15 years since I heard that sentence & I am crying as I write it. I had no clue.
is he ok now?
Hope he's OK now...
I'm sorry 😞
Yea. thats how we feel. everyone so busy that we feel left out. so we think " why do anyone else care. but im happy your son still here and now you know and you guys are working on it everyday.
@@Sis_Izzie pls dont hurt you self i care about you :)
My son attempted suicide at 14. This hit home hard. He thankfully failed his attempt and doing much better today at 16. But I never saw it, especially the night before he attempted. He was acting so happy. He even wanted us all to do a movie night together. The next morning in the hospital I asked him about it and he said something that will forever haunt me. He said, "I just wanted one last nice night together with you before I died." Please talk to your kids, even if they 'seem' okay, especially if their mood changes to positive when that's somewhat out of their normal behavior.
❤️
That made me sad but i kinda understand him. Glad to know that he is doing much better now. God bless your family.
You can be a great dad. You can learn from your mistakes. Send you lots of hugs and wish your son loads of happiness.
Wow ! That is very powerful!
That may have been the saddest thing ive ever read
Tears are now going down my face
Omfg
I constantly encourage my nine year old son to keep being brave and tell me when he’s struggling. He’s in counselling at the moment, because he opened up to me about to how he’s been struggling with anger lately.
If I am ever busy, and he wants to talk to me because he’s sad, I will always drop everything for him. The other day, I was meant to meet my friend in town but my son wanted to talk, so I was 2 hours late to meet my friend, who was beyond annoyed at me, but who cares. Kids need to know that you will always be there for them the moment they need you.
You are doing a good job as a parents. God bless, and keep going. I pray for you and family
Thank you for sharing.
I was on the other side of this, my dad killed himself when I was 11 years old. Now as a 56 year old man, I always ask that question and make time for anyone
Personally I feel the reason we don’t tell our parents these things is they won’t understand what we mean exactly if most of us were to tell our parents something was wrong or we were sad they would think it was over something childish and stupid so we never approach them about our problems
That's exactly how I feel. I remember a time I was so depressed, I didn't eat meals, I would do nothing but lay in bed from morning to night, and just silently have mental breakdowns daily, and one day I heard my mom on the phone calling me "moody"... Also my family knows I have social anxiety yet they say things like "just go out more", "talking to people isn't even that difficult", and "how hard is it to do this simple thing??" Safe to say I'm trusting no one in my family with any of my secrets.
@@naritruwireve1381 Please hold on, things will get better for you.
Exactly right. Many never take it seriously.
@@naritruwireve1381 I understand your pain my friend. I cannot say I know it from experience but I suffered alot when I was younger. More than most around me ever knew. I don't know If you'll accept my words, but I struggled for 7 years. One day I decided to give my life to Jesus. He sought me first, as he does. But I made the decision to be his. Please reach out to him. Through him our wrongdoings will be forgiven, and he will mend you. Piece you back together as he did me. Things won't always be perfect, they'll possibly be quite hard, but you will be sheltered under the wings of the Lord.
Even worse, many parents will instantly assume it's their fault and react badly because they themselves are extremely insecure/broken. They may blame the child or berate them/abuse them more. I personally know of two children in this situation. Sadly here in NZ, there's little I can do about it. Unless the child shows physical evidence of severe physical abuse, they won't remove the child from parental care. So they grow up abused with zero confidence and a history of self-harm if they survive at all. All I can do is try to offset their parental abuse with encouragement and support, and when they are old enough to be allowed to separate from a parent, support them getting onto their feet with no parent.

another quote, "when the time comes, don't go expecting someone to come save you"
you've got to get stronger yourself, it`s inevitable.
a quote that i always cherish and look back at
Being strong, grabbing a bible too! Believe me the devil tries to destroy you through depression. The devil tries to destroy a sound mind. Don't let him win! Ask God to help you. He will! Don't let yourself be alone. Take a walk with Jesus. Read the bible.

This made me cry so hard. So sorry for your loss, and anyone who has had to lose a child, my prayers for you ❤
He’s right about that “right time to talk”
nah, that's just an issue with bonding
knocking is a thing, connecting with your children is a thing
plumbean it isn’t
Trust me
@@TobyBanci he does have a point, if you're not sharing a bond with your parents its hard to open up, especially if they just barge in and start wsterboarding you in questions.
I guess, timing is really key but taking time is probably the most important.
Yea he nailed it, some teens like me just prefer dont talk when we're like watching some videos since it kinda just relaxes your mind
But this is just my prospective, some doesn't have the same concept probably.
A generation that wasn’t listened to, is trying to listen to a generation that wants to be heard, creating a generation that will finally listen when the time comes.
I don't see that happening...
right! i hope i become a mom and can teach my own dad how he should love his kids :/
I’ve always believed that a father makes his children strong but at the same time no one wants to accept how little it takes to make someone consider suicide
@@lonedemonofdeath666 True words. Its the reason why they're attacked and families get separated so easily this day in age.

I hope you realize that by telling your story you are telling your son “I’m sorry” every time you share. I am so sorry for your loss and am inspired by your bravery in sharing your story. Thank you and God continue to bless your relationships.
I'm not young anymore. I dont have children, wasn't able but ill say this coming from someone who is probably struggling mentally Now more than ever, especially if You Yourself didn't grow up with parents who had or not the ability to emotionally connect. If You just dont get it, do your best to educate yourself about mental illness.
For Some I reckon, they just arent capable of fighting anymore. R.I.P. Ryan❤
as a teenager, we say “we’re fine” because we are hiding something, it’s embarrassing, we’re scared how you will react, we’re scared what you’d do, we don’t wanna talk about it
That doesn't change because you become an adult either.
Especially when you live surrounded by people with limited or outdated morals, awareness, knowledge, and education...Either your parents are too worried that you wouldn’t survive or they’re in denial of the fact that they don’t know exactly what to do.
No it isn't lol i say I'm fine so i don't have to make small talk with my parents
@@hiyesiambanana2310 And because of that too
I mean,I also say I'm fine when I'm actually fine.
He wasn’t the best dad, and he couldn’t save his son. But he has already saved many more.
I don't think he would have, if there wasn't the note his son left.
@LawofAttraction What?
@LawofAttraction this man is trying to help others, he can’t turn back time but he is telling the truth. As he said please learn from the things I didn’t do right.
I can tell you from my own experience my son completed Suicide 30 years ago this month, there is not a day I wish I could have saved him. I understand this mans heartache.
@LawofAttraction How?
@LawofAttraction i can only feel sorry for you, and hope that you see the sadness inside of you dear. May you find a good path in life instead of this one filled with hatred and rage, try to stop hating your self, forgive yourself.
I did hide my problems from my sons but it got to a stage where I started to open up to them and visa versa. Kids aren't stupid and knew I was struggling. We have a very open relationship and I think that helped when my oldest through a trauma has PTSD, social phobia etc and he was at times not wanted to live but we talked and talked and I listened.
I am literally listening to this man crying, thank you for sharing your experience, wisdom and strength. I pray for you and your family healing journey ❤❤.
One of the worst things parents say to their kids is, "Be grateful. Others have it worse"
Saying that isn't going to fix the problem, it will only make it worse. Your child came to you for help for a reason, they won't understand your bills, or your problems at your job. They are a child. You need to put yourself at their age and realize that their problem is a lot bigger than you think.
I totally agree as that is the problem I've been facing the last few years that others have it worse. That it has come to the point were my relationship with my parents is almost gone the only times we speak are at the dinner table and most days we dont even do that, and the only thing that's said is from my dad about his work days. The only times we actually talk is when I have a breakdown about how Im feeling about school or lost pets I've grown up with and that i miss they almost newer get into how or family relationship is going.
So the only things I've actually had a relationship with is my pets because they are always there for you no matter what, and they are one of the reasons I've been able to go on.
@@Ghost-Tales So sorry you have to go through that. I too have had a few of those moments with my parents.
This annoys me. Its the truth, other kids are starving, or being sold. If youre commenting on a youtube video, you have it easy. I think my generation is just a bunch of snowflakes who cant stand up for themselves. Grow up, not everything is about you.
@@sebasthecrab1345 Yes but knowing that isn't going to stop depression. Yes, I acknowledge the fact that many kids are dealing with worse, but telling that to your kids isn't going to cure their depression. It's gonna make them feel that their feelings don't matter just because others have it worse. I think that would make you a bad parent.
@@maplemaple626 I was depressed for quite a while. I told my parents, and they explained that in the real world nobody cares. They told me to grow up and be mature. So i did. But, i guess that doesnt work on people who are sensitive.
Take note: when your child ask if you can talk, drop what you're doing and shift your focus on your child.
yeah, because maybe they won't ask you next time
My parents would never do this
@soham aychitte what do you mean by that?
You won't have to "drop everything your doing" if you have regular deeper meaning conversations. Show that it is OK to share your feelings in certain circles. My mom did an awesome job at that on her own. Through multiple bad relations. Love you mom!

Hey bro, stay strong out there, I know it's hard when you can't share your struggles with someone else, but try to seek out help and understanding, and remember that there are people who value you more that they appear to
Hey, I’m spreading the word about this, because it kind of changed my life and I hope it helps, because it may feel like you have no one you can trust, nobody you can talk to, nobody to open your feeling up to, but let me tell you something. I took a risk once. When I was at my lowest. I’m so glad I did. I felt like nobody I knew cared about me and that when I died I would die having no friends. But what did see, was I took a risk, I opened myself up to a discord group one time, and it was a moment I still haven’t forgotten, because at the time I felt like I had nobody left. But they actually cared about me. People, who I had barely even talked to before, actually cared about me, they didn’t know who I was, what I looked like, or whether or not anything I was saying was true, but they helped me, encouraged me, and most importantly, they acknowledged me and listened. The internet is a wonderful thing because it has made humanity so much more connected than ever. We have grown to hate more, but we can empathize more too. Someone will listen to you, and if you need I can as well if you like.
If you are a jolly person like me, who jokes all the time😶, your parents will of course think you are joking. Not considering it happens with you, but when i speak something i make fun of myself 😂, though i don't feel bad, it's within the family and love within it is more important. If they are not understanding, then it leave you with the responsibility to understand your mistakes and your family, just don't feel seperated with your family.
Determinism is Freedom 🤙🤙
As I've gotten to adult age I've really started thinking about how to help my future kids. I couldn't be more grateful for this video.
When I was 5 I found my 13 year old brother hanging it totally messed my life up I'm still feeling it. When people do this it's the ones still alive who suffer. If you're having thoughts of leaving this world don't speak up you're not alone and you are loved.
No
It’s a very strange concept to me that a man who runs away from his feelings is considered more of a man than the man who is willing to face his feelings.
I think when a man is looked up to as a rock, for other people to be reassured, it makes a lot of sense that he doesn't show how scared he is. But he needs an outlet somewhere. If you're not a leader then other people are not looking to you for reassurance and you have a lot more freedom (often) to be vulnerable
will 2583147 I say this all of the time !
If men showed such feelings early in our species history, we'd not be here, period. Human nature was this way long before you or I , or anyone, for thousands of years came along. Its foolish and naive to think can evolve overnight. Don't go on like its unnatural for us to be this way.
will 2583147 thought he explained it pretty well. It wasnt that he was running from his feeling but rather he felt it was a way to protect them. It’s a common feeling for a dad to want to protect them from all harm, but there has to be a balance. I’m opposite in that I’m super emotional without being a snowflake. But I’m an artist and I have two little girls so I’m a different animal altogether lol.
Because it's based on perception.
I once yelled at my dad that I didn't want to live anymore. He dropped down beside me, said "oh?" and just listened. Ever since that day we have talked about mental health, and 14 years later I am still alive. Because he was there. Listening ❤
Sounds like he really appreciated you and I think you're lucky young woman to have a father so humble and patient.
Well done for speaking up, letting others know you’re, or you were struggling. Life is a lot harder for some than it is for others, I’ve struggled for over 30yrs to keep the dark thoughts from taking over my mind.
You're so lucky man im so sad and jealous of other people like i always cry when i see comments like this if i do this to my dad hes just gonna beat be to death man.
My dad isn't there for me, but that doesn't mean I'm lonely, I made up for the lost time with him by talking with my mother, but I never talked about my suffering, but if I do need her, I know she is there for me, she always will be, and I trust my mother to fulfill that roll 💜
That’s beautiful.
Respect to this man and all of the pain he has gone through, i hope he finds peace
R.I.P Ryan.. Got this recommended for me and having my first born, a son, in march 2024. I’ll make sure I’ll be there for him whenever he needs me.💯🙏
My older brother took his own life, he did two terms in Afghanistan and he was never the same. He used to talk to us a lot, I have 3 brothers, we would all huddle up and he would talk to us. How we need to help each other grow but no one looked at him and thought he had a problem, he had PTSD. He was always the strong one, always. I miss him a lot and it still hurts. I'm the eldest now and I constantly talk to my brothers. About little things and big things, whatever it is, I get a call before my mom and dad does. I make it a point I'm there for them. RIP Vince, I got our familys back now. See you in heaven.
Stay strong bro. You’re a great brother.
So sorry for your loss. He's always with you. He'pm never leave you.
That's a sad story and I'm terribly sorry for your loss. Stay strong and stand firm, the torch has been passed onto you now. And then, one day, you will meet your brother again. Sooner than you think!
Really sorry bro my Deepest condolences to you and your family

I’m so glad we have always been so open with our kids and blessed with the ability to connect with them. I know they still hold onto things but we deal with it. They are never alone in their fight and we just have to let them know.
As a mom I share my things with my son all the time.
It's very important for me to be his friend and part of his school life. He has personal space and freedom that when he doesn't want to be in his friendlist, I'm ok that time.
I have shared many things and few things about my struggle and failure also.
As someone that is struggling myself, this video hurt on another level.
Stay strong man, but if you think you need help try your best to get some your own way. Don't force yourself in going with this pain all alone to keep the appearances like I do because you are too concerned about bothering others with your own personal life struggles and problems. Keep it up!
I know how you feel friend. Life is just one disappointment after another. People judge me all the time. I have a dream career in mind but I have low self-esteem. I'm plagued everyday by the thought of any bad that could happen.
Same. I started bawling my eyes out when I thought I was going to watch just one more video before trying to sleep
Hope you're feeling better, if you're struggling, ring some helplines. Imagine how kind you would be if your friend was feeling the way you do and be kind, really kind, to yourself 💖💗

This video 😢.... My thoughts was all over the place... And this video came in recommendations... And to be honest I believe it just saved my life ❤... Praying for anyone who wants to give up on life 😭🙏🏽... You are special the world needs you ❤..
I’m 56 and feel just like your son. I’m so sorry this happened to you. I’m sorry your son was in so much pain…it is hard.
Stay strong
