bvbblegum I agree and the way he dealt with the topics in the video are just incredible and one thing that strikes me every time I watch this video is how he speaks, like his voice is calming and understanding, even when he’s being a little less serious, his voice just seems perfect for reading what’s on the screen
" I'll never hit that button, ever." I've contemplated it. And gotten to the point where my hand was just barely not touching it. But then one of your videos came on. My hands almost grazed it. I heard your intro. Followed by a greeting by jack. I pulled my hand away. I watched the video. It was so close. I could touch it if I wanted. I pressed the other one. I threw away the button to give up. I watched more of your videos. And Jack's too. You both saved me. I owe you my life. I hope I never get that close again. I'm sorry if this is too long. I doubt you'll ever see this. But I needed to get it off my chest. I'm sorry. I'll stay. For you.
I remember watching this last year and when I saw the “give in or survive option” my first thought was “just give in.” Watching this now my first thought was to survive. :’)
Yellow rose Of Texas. We always need to remember that someone somewhere still loves us and doesn't want us to stay in a harsh time and sometimes almost positively will impact our future in some way.
When mark was saying "I *could* hit that button. But I'm not going to. I will never hit that button" I didn't hear just somebody saying "that's a terrible idea it'll be bad for the fans" I hear *mark* and I heard him talking from his *heart*, I heard what sounded like experience, and a lot of knowledge about this. I heard mark *wanting* to survive. I'm not saying mark is suicidal, I'm saying maybe he's had those thoughts in his grief, but he knew he wanted to stay. And I honestly think we help, and so does all his friends and family. He's an honest and loving, kind man. I'm glad I idolize mark.
My best friend recently committed suicide. We both struggled with mental illness. We were in it together. We both made a promise that if one of us committed suicide they’d give the other a heads up. At 4:45 am I got a message saying she decided to end the fight. Suicide is when you stop fighting the war you never knew you had to fight. I wish the best for you.
Avery Yuu hey. Thanks for this comment, and sorry I haven’t gotten back to you. It means a lot you actually care. I hope you’re doing well. Have a lovely day and feel free to reply.
17:20 when mark said that it touched my heart. My family doesn’t understand. The think I can just flip the switch and be better. But it’s a fight everyday. Sometimes the fight means not leaving my bed so I don’t end it. Sometimes it means leaving my house and not coming home for a long time. Sometimes it means escaping to work or from work. Sometimes it means sitting at my table and crying over the pill bottles as I think of the few reasons why I should stay alive. The fight goes on every day and it’s so hard. Mark helps me so much. Him and jack have stopped me from hurting myself so many times. They’ve helped me stay here this long. Thank you so much mark. Without you I wouldn’t be here anymore. I’ll keep fighting just so I can always see you in the next video.
people dont get that it takes dfferent things to make it through the fight especially my family they think i can just feel better aswell some days i feel desparate to stay up so it doesnt feel like im wasting the day or doing nothing for a whole day even if i miss assignments...
I hope you are doing well, there are people in the world that care and love you, and I know that it doesn't seem like it but they do care. I know this reply has been kinda cliche but I wish you the best and I hope you are alright.
“The loneliness is suffocating.” Words I’ve repeated to myself for years. Mark, you are the reason that I’m alive. I wouldn’t be here, on planet earth, without you. I wouldn’t know that I have a little brother. People were making fun of me, and I was dysphoric.Thank you, so much. I needed this, and I’m sure many others do as well.
I lost my best friend to suicide the beginning of this year. He was the sweetest boy i ever met and there’s not a day it doesn’t hurt. Edit: I’m so thankful for all the kind comments, for everyone that shared their story. We all have to keep on going, even if it’s hard. It’s good to know that none of us is alone in this. Thank you and keep on fighting.
I haven't heard or even seen my best friend. A few months ago, she confessed she was suicidal. I'm worried about her . . . she showed me so many things she's done to herself. I'm so sorry for your loss as well. This shouldn't ever be about me.
@@Kai-iy3kk honey, if you think it wont hurt you to be there for her, be there, but if you think it could hurt you, please just tell her to get help. I have a past suicide attempt and a history of self harm, there is such a stigma around getting help that you think it will be terrible, but it really helps. Her mental health isnt your responsibility, but if you can be there for her and show your love, do it.
"I'm never gonna hit that button" Damn that hit. Just because it's a game. I'll never hit it. That hit hard. Edit: why did 1.3k people like this. Thanks. Edit: 1.9k people like this holy- edit again: 2.1k holy heckersons
you should change that edit to 1.6k likes. also, the way he said it and explained it... it lets you know that even if it's a game, you get to decide on what to do. even Jack pressed the button. and he only saw 3 endings (live, die (by hanging), and *join*)
"loss stays with you for your entire life. it can heal and you'll be fine, you'll, you'll be better for it, but you'll always remember it.. and like, the temptation to give in is always gonna be there, and it'll always pull you back. that's why you gotta stay strong because, you know, you survived one day.. you can survive more. you can keep going and then you can keep living, even if it cant seem like you will."
Artificial happiness destroys the mind... That’s why one of the endings was about overdosing. They thought that being happy meant that they could forget, so they wanted to be happy as soon as possible. Pain is the hardest burden to bear...
Me: *plays the game, doesn't cry, is just in a heavy mood* Him: *plays the game* Me: *watches, starts crying from him talking about it and all the emotion I hear in his voice*
Your little speech near the end about the fact you kept living beyond the fact you could've gotten another ending. Was really meaningful. Thanks for this ride mark.
I lost it at “every day I think about joining you” that just hit me hard. I’ve thought about suicide a lot in the past and it just hit real hard oh man. Now I’m just lying here crying I didn’t even make it to the 10 minute mark
Same here. I lost it in the first 5 minutes. But this community is the best damned thing to happen in a long time. You are amazing, and i hope to always be with this beautiful community.
Its fine we all have weaknesses but its you and the people around to help you feel better. I've thought about suicide as well but it was people like Jack and Mark and people in the community that made myself think how would that make them feel to find i killed myself i thank them to this day for everything they've done for me
Same here hon, don’t worry we’ll get through this. We’ve suffered so much pain so eventually we’ll get the same amount of good. The good can’t exist without evil and the evil can exists without the good. The universe is balanced so eventually we will get our good times, our happy hours, basically what I’m saying is.. It will get better. We are enduring this pain for a reason, it’s like purgatory before heaven, bad before the good. It will get better and believe me I’m not just some stranger telling you this. I’m am your FRIEND that has been through and still going through the same thing as you but as long as I believe it will get better I *know* it will
"I'm never going it hit that button. Ever." Why is it when he says it, he isn't talking to the game or just the camera. It's like he is talking to us, in person. This is why I genuinely want to live. Even though I'm diagnosed with suicidal ideations and have attameoted 16 times now.. I want to be here, for him. I want to meet him at one point.
I'm sure you will meet him one day, even if it's by a small gesture, like a heart on a comment or a simple hi. You'll get there, I can't tell you when or how but the possibility is always there.
Helping others is an amazing coping mechanism. If anyone can't be talked down or convinced to change their mind from suicide no matter what, I beseech them to do so in the service of helping others. In the process they might even help themselves change their mind.
you can't just "change you mind" from suicide. You can get stronger, you can learn to fight back. To push one more day. But you can't just change your mind and say "Y'know... I don't think that's such a good idea." If you're suicidal then you can see no other escape except for death.
error53ish Daniel Krye used to be a part of cyndago, you can find him in a lot of their videos. He passed away to an attempted suicide attempt 2 years ago. He was one of mark’s closest friends.
When I was in grade 5, we were called into assembly. For some reason I felt sick, shaky. Then we found a kid, only two years older. Used a rope and, you can imagine the rest. Throughout that assembly all I could think was, "i didn't know you, but I wish I could have done something.". Now, two years later, I feel like a broken record. Lonely, hurt and sad. My friends helped me and just know, if you're reading this, I care. We may not talk or even know each other, but I care for all of you. Inside of you are golden hearts to treasure. If you need a reason to stay, to not hit that button. I'm one. I care, I want you to live, to experience everything good in this world. You are an amazing human and you always will be.
I lost my mom in March this year. This game is right, even when you "get over" it, you never really "get over" it. But like I always say, everything is going to be okay.
+Mac Foraday I can relate to you secondhand. My grandmother has passed away half a decade ago, but to this day, my mother still feels the same pain and agony from that day. She always talks about how much she misses her parents and how much she wishes to join them at their graves. You never really recover from it, but you learn to live with it even though it plagues the back of your mind. Losing someone is one of the most difficult things in life.
I am honestly in tears right now. (Please read till end. Just....please) I'm scrolling through the comments and am finding so many people who are saying Mark is a reason they stay alive, sharing stories (mainly their own), and even just saying positive things for others. As a person who tried to commit suicide at the age of 16 seeing all these comments, and hearing Mark's words makes me wish I had been here back then. I'm 18 now, and every day I work on distancing myself from *that* time of my life. To all of you out there who come across this and are struggling, know someone who has struggled, have struggled: You can do it. You are strong, you are wonderful, you are exactly what the world needs. If loss is something contributing towards the struggle: No, it never does get easier. Nothing ever gets easier. BUT you get stronger. You learn to adapt. And one day it will not be your main focus anymore. It will not effect you as much as it does right now. Keep up the fight, don't let anything or anyone stop you. You are brilliant. And you are strong. And please.....if you ever need someone to talk with.....I believe there is an option to message someone on TH-cam. If that's the case mine are always open, and I will do my best to at least let you know you are not alone. If not, there is a website where free of charge you can speak with someone (typically a user who has gone through training, but some actual therapists are available) and have the support you need in that moment. Its called 7cups.
@@freeds6601 I know its been 5 months but I stumbled across this video.Of course the world needs you.God didnt just put you here just because.He put you here because everyone INCLUDING YOU have a purpose in life.Even if it doesnt look like it...trust me on this it does get better.
Everyday I wanna die, inside and out. Everyday I wanna die and not remember the bad things since I just turned 15 just barely a month. My uncle molested me and I don't wanna think about it at all... but it lingers. Being raised by my stepdad was worse because he was so verbally abusive to me and physically abusive to my mom and brother. As I moved out of my parents' house and moved into my aunt's place, it got worse. I was molested by my other uncle and I never told his brother (my dad). After finding out I was pregnant, I was on an emotional roller coaster about having a baby. After my aunt kicked me out, I had nowhere to live. Living from place to place, I finally stayed at my mom's place. After having my baby girl, my stepdad kicked my mom, my new baby and myself out of the house again. So we lived in the house that my first uncle that molested me. Few weeks later, we moved back into the house. My stepdad was verbally abusive to me if I slept, I am a bad mother. If I eat before feeding my baby, I am a bad mother. If you don't do right with your baby, I will kick you out and have full custody of your daughter. My family is no help because they'll just backstab me. I have no REAL FRIENDS because they don't contact me like a friend should. I am by myself, with my thoughts, and my darkest friend there is... My dark cloud. Negative thoughts are my drug. As I grab a chunk of those thoughts I place it on a spoon, liquify it, and inject it into my system so I can get a negative high. My daughter is an 8th grader. About to graduate. She has been in the Special Olympics for a while now, 22 medals from gold silver and bronze. She has been in swimming class since she was 9yo, over 2 dozen ribbons later. She has autism. And I love her. Everyday I wanna die, inside and out... but I can't because I have a daughter to live for. Thank you, Mark.
Nessa Jean If this is an honest comment, this story doesn't belong on a TH-cam video. Seek help. You'll find on the wrong day, your daughter isn't enough of a barrier. Trust me.
Nessa Jean things will get better. You just have to believe and hope they will! And i really hope for te best for you and your daughter. *virtual hug* its gonna be okay!
I am a single mom, 37-years-old, unemployed, full of depression anxiety and suffer major panic attacks, got a degree in general studies (a folder with a piece of paper that collects dust and does nothing for me) but never pursued anything because of my limitations, no one pushed me in my family in any of the things I can do... so many talents, yet, I am shy.
The help I get doesn't HELP. It's just talking and talking and talking and pills that do not help but make me sicker and sicker... no solution. And if this was a community that was supposed to be Open and helpful, then I ask to please not to reply back. Trust me, I have tried everything and nothing works. Lol, funny word that I see that I do not approve of TRUST! A word that means nothing because I have no trust in humanity, and myself.
I have to say, the art in this game is beautiful, depicting strong visual images to fit well into the story and overall message. I can only empathize with what's going on, having never gone through this and not knowing anyone who is personally going through such heavy emotions. All I could do is wish all of you guys(who have/are experiencing this or know someone who had/is) the best, and I hope that you can find a safe space irl or in an online community. I hope that you get the support and hope to keep going despite everything that's happening.
Just because you don't know it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. He probably has some pretty dark thoughts, that's why he can smile so brightly. If he told you his darkest thoughts, would you run, or would you stay by his side through them? Would you throw help at him like you pity him, or would you teach him how to help himself? How would you react if he told you that he's been through The Suicide Gauntlet Of Thoughts? If he told you that he's had to literally hide weapons, avoid dangerous places, surround himself by responsibilities, etc... ? Remember, some of the friendliest, brightest, most *happiest* of people have the darkest thoughts. You should love them anyway.
Also, this was posted on my birthday this year. Coincidentally, all the people who've ever loved me unconditionally have died... I kinda wanna go where they are. Like, a lot. Like, I have had to literally force myself to hold on to railings to keep from diving into traffic, hide weapons so I don't use them, beg friends to take me along for rides so I'm not left alone long enough to overdose on random other people's medications, etc.... I even gathered the materials to tie weights to my legs to jump off a pier at one point to drown myself. I just... want to be with them, since I haven't found anyone worth staying for here. My younger brother died of brain cancer three months before my older brother was murdered, and my younger brother's birthday is near Thanksgiving (the date of that holiday changes each year), and my older brother's birthday is the day before New Year's Eve. Coincidentally, my foster father, the man I wanted to walk me down the aisle when I was planning my wedding, died on New Year's Eve (his birthday was also in December, if I remember correctly). He died just before I was planning to ask that of him. My grandfather died of lung cancer, and my grandmother died of diabetes after losing both her legs and then getting really sick for a long time. And then there were James and Will, both young men who died in terrible accidents, whom I think really liked me but didn't tell me (girls can tell these things, y'know!!). There was a young man in college too, Ian, whom I got wicked vibes from like he liked me since he showed me more affection than anyone else, but then he hung himself in the basement of his dorm. But I'm ... still here. Waiting. For what, even I don't know. Maybe I shouldn't be though.
I haven't lost anyone, not anyone close to me. And I dread the day that I do lose someone close to me. One of my best friends is extremely suicidal and he plans on killing himself in two years and tbere's nothing I can do about it...
I literally wrote an extremely depressed comment 3 years ago and I came back now and Read it. I was like...wow... just wow... honey see a therapist. Like damn. You know that was written at 3am in the middle of my third mental breakdown that night.
I've been dealing with loss for 7 years now. I never had anyone around. My parents disappeared when I was 8 and the one person who ever showed me love and compassion died right in front of my eyes. It still hard to deal with and I feel lost most days. It affects everything I do. I fight every day and question myself if I should give in or stay alive. I always will choose to stay alive, there are people who need me more than I need them and I couldn't bring myself to hurt anyone I love.
I can't imagine the sort of pain and hardship that brings into everyday life. You have my support and admiration for your strength. In all terror, sadness and grief there is a sense of hoplessness, that you have forever lost part of you, but I believe you can get that back or find a way to live above the pain and give to others what was taken from you. Giving can truly bring meaning to a life. You aren't alone brother, have a good day and a better tomorrow.
I've dealt with suicide myself, and almost went through... this video hits hard and made me cry, but it made me feel like I'm not alone... Thank you Mark... Thank you everyone... I love you...
Ray Gonzalez My moms best friends husband committed suicide last year. It was very hard for my moms friend and my mom. My moms friend is still angry at her husband (Of course) but she is getting better, and I am happy for her.
@@makkimix9535 I'm glad you're sharing this a lot more people deal with loss without knowing it, as for me I didn't know why I was depressed until I found out it was all from grieving loss.
I have a friend who attempted suicide in January. Fortunately, she didn't succeed. She was in a rehab facility for a long time, and I didn't get to see her much before quarantine started. I have no way to contact her. Her parents monitor everything she does really closely, and she doesn't have a real phone. She hasn't posted on her dad's snapchat in months, and that was the only time I ever knew she was still out there. I wish I could tell her how much I care. I wish she could see how much everyone loves her. If you're out there somewhere, reading this- you might know who you are, and you might not. If you see this, just know that I love you. You are wanted. You are wonderful. You are kind and strong and courageous and I just want you to know that. I love you so much.
I really hope things are going better for your friend! I know that this being the internet, words like these do not mean much, but I hope that these words can still reach you regardless.
My fiancee died 2 years ago this past May. I remember people telling me "he's in a better place now" "you'll get over it half the time you knew him" "I don't understand why you're so sad". He belonged here, with me, there is no better place than that. I have never and will never get over losing my best friend and love of my life. I was depressed, and my anxiety got so bad it was hard for me to leave the house. His family really helped me through the loss, my own family just couldn't understand how hurt I was. I still think about him everyday. I always will. You never get over losing someone you love. I did to get a place where I can now think of him and smile, instead of breaking down in tears. I do cry sometime, but mostly I feel great full for having known and loved him, knowing he loved me too.
vamperus Man the people that told you that lack empathy. That's so cold hearted. I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm sure he watches over you every day. Jesus is holding him in his arms. ❤ I know it still hurts. God bless you.
Right now im in the hospital battling cancer and unfortunately the doctors said i only have a few months left but watching this helped me so much. I know when i leave its going to hurt so many people and im in a state of depression because all i can feel is the loss that is soon to come for my friends and family. But thank you mark so much for this amazing journey and for the time i have left, i really will remember this video and the inspring messages within it. Thank you so so much.
I had known someone in your position that passed a few weeks ago. It was her wish for her friends to party at her funeral because she didn't want sadness among them. I wish you the best in your time with us.
Lucy Lovelace we will all miss you, and I send support to your family. You’re so strong and I want you to keep fighting, until the very end, that way, you can say you tried and you have no regrets
While watching this I scrolled through the comments and wept over reading people pouring their hearts out about losing their parents, grandparents, spouses, cousins, siblings, pets, even struggling with their own mortality for one reason or another. Maybe they needed someone else to read it, maybe they meant for it to become lost in the flood of words below, much like this one, almost like a slip of paper you let go of in a wind storm.
i left my story... No one read it.After seeing all these people responding to others with love and support i wish someone had read mine, because that isn't something i get in real life...
The Wanderer hey ^-^ i don't want to be presumptuous, since i don't know your story, but i'm sure that no matter how lonely you feel of isolated life seems, someone cares. someone will listen and love you. it took me a long time to realize the value of the people who care. when they turn up, cherish them, okay? stay strong
This video is exactly showing why Mark is my favorite TH-camr. He's so human, so incredibly human and thoughtful. He's got his way to speak from his heart to yours about everything. What a guy. Thank's for all you offered me through those passed 5 years of following your journey and thank's again for what's coming next.
"ᴵ ᴰᴼᴺᵀ ᴮᴸᴬᴹᴱ ᵞᴼᵁ ᶠᴼᴿ ᴸᴱᴬᵛᴵᴺᴳ." Damn.. i really feel that. Everyone leaves me once in awhile. It hurts me, but i understand why they would leave me. I'd blame myself too. Im not good enough. I get that, but i wish they'd understand how much i try. Sometimes i just wanna leave how they left me, but i woulnt want someone to be in pain like i am.
And those people that leave you, sooner or later will be learning in life things like this, something that hurts them too, and you have to know that if life didn't make them do it whit you, someone will come, to experiencie good things in your company. You matter so much, to everyone that doesn't have meet you yeet, to everyone who stills have their life to be aligned whit yours. You should know, out there, will be somebody, always, for you. Even if it is Mak, thought the screen rigth now, he maybe isn't here buy he's a human, and he truly means the love an aprecciation that he speaks of. I believe so much that you will find people that will take the journey of life whit you, for the time it has to be, for the things they has to be, for anything. You are worth, and you are beautiful. You're not the moments of people going away, you re so much more. I love you. And i can say it so secure of myself, because i would never, never ever, want anybody to be sad. I can't control it, we can't control it sometimes, but at least we are here, figthing it. I wrote this whole thing to you, because i know a friend that have that kind of thoughts of people leaving her, and i feelt the need to tell you what are you worth for. I deeply apologize for bad english, i hope you have a great life. We love you.
It’s really hard to understand why people leave sometimes. Whether they wanted to or not. I just want you to know that one day you’ll find someone that stays and makes you feel happier than you thought was possible. It’s possible to live a happy life even if it feels like all you have is pain. My prayers are with you.
Please don't think about yourself like that. You are good enough and someone will always be there for you. Even if it's just me, a stranger in the comments section, someone will always be there for you
I just have to say... reading these comments... about all the people who struggle with death, suicide, and depression. It’s just so amazing to see the amount of people that reply to these comments saying it’s going to be okay. It’s just so amazing to see people who don’t even know each other trying their best to tell someone they matter. So just thank you to everyone in this community. It is so hard to find such a wholesome and loving community but I think I found one, you guys are some of the best people out there and I don’t know if you’ll see this but just know that I’m here for you and so many people are to. You matter and don’t ever forget that. Nothing makes you less than or greater than you are just as important as everyone else and don’t let yourself or others tell you otherwise.
Looking through the comments everyone has something kind to say to that person. It’s actually amazing to see a whole community come together to support each other.
Taylor McGowan I think things like this bring people together because of the common struggle, even if they're not about the same thing. It's amazing to see strangers support each other like this. Even if they don't know what they're going through ❤️
I lost family and i agree its hard but having caring people out there make it alot better like my advice is go to family friends and even a church or find someone who went through the same thing and they can even help
It is certainly amazing how Mark has been able to bring so many people of different backgrounds who all have their own story to tell together. We may not know each other, but through Mark we are able to show the compassionate side of who we are and help each other as a community should. I hope everyone has a good day, and thank you for the heartwarming support y'all have for each other. It's places and moments like this when I know that none of us are alone.
“If you can survive one day, you can survive more.” This was very helpful advice, I know people who just feel like ending it all will solve everything but dying won’t do anything but just make matters worse. It’s like once people die, they think it wouldn’t affect anyone which is why they died in the first place. You guys matter. A lot. Life can be hard but that’s what life is: it’s shit and terrible but there’s a reason why we’re alive and breathing, having a horrible life is better than not having a life at all.
From personal experience.. you need to fight not only to carry on, but to do something as well. Work, activities. This makes it all so much easier... but it's also so much harder when depressed. But seriously, you _gotta_ do something, even if volunteer work. It makes your future so so much easier.
Mark, I don’t think you will see this, but I can still have hope. Can you do a mental health series? A series of videos that are supportive, and kind. With topics like “You are loved.” “Happiness.” “Depression” “Loneliness.” And others. Please, I know it would be more work, but I think it would be a very nice thing. I struggle with mental conditions such as adhd and autism, and with your deep, soothing, gentle voice, I think those type of videos would help me, you, and every single viewer who sees them. Thank you, for doing everything, Mark.
He said he didn't feel he could give advice, but honestly he probably helps so many subscribers just by doing what he does and being who he is. At the very least, he helps me.
Out of 8 billion people in this world, when your person dies, you're just not the same person anymore. You just don't see the world with same eyes as before. The loneliness and silence is suffocating...
I love how Mark just takes the time to remind us all how beautiful life is and how, even if we lose someone, we choose to pick the right button and live on. I love how Mark does these things
I lost someone last year. A mate said something to me I'll always remember, "you don't move on, you carry on" The death Fucked me up, made anxiety and OCD from childhood come back. But I'm getting better. Still struggle sometimes, but know it gets better over time.
I'm sorry for your loss. I've lost someone important to me too last year. Their memory will always live on, and how they impacted you will remain too. I hope that helps.
In June or July of 2020, I met my best friend Taylor online. We knew each other through a mutual friend, but never really talked much. I found out she was extremely depressed, so I reached out to her. We started talking for a few minutes. As the days went by, minutes turned to hours, and we talk every day now. Ever since then I've been helping her out, giving her tips on ways to be happier, letting her know how amazing she is. She has come close to pushing that button much more than once, but I've always tried to be there for her at those times. Taylor has gotten a lot better since then, which I am very thankful for. She's my closest friend and I honestly don't know what I'd do without her. She's never told me exactly why she's depressed, but I've still been able to help her out, and it's truly amazing.
I’ve lost both my grandparents and nearly all of my childhood cats. The feeling of their loss has healed, definitely, but the memories of their loss are still with me to this day. Thank you for showing me to continue on forward. More people should see this. Even though you said you aren’t an expert in this, I feel like you are the best in the field. Thank you Mark. You are a pure soul.
Seeing all the long and inspiring comments made me emotional, and most of them are about their loss of family members. My condolences to all of them including you. Continue your journey. Literally this game is so sad, the animoo design influences to us, the music, how less the surrounding is D: Including the story itself why is it so sad pls help
Mark you are such a sweet sweet beautiful uplifting person... You mean so much to your fans. I hope youre having a good day or night Mark and everyone. If not, its ok and I hope you feel better soon❤️
Danizzel Hate speech is not how you handle things. If you don't like his content, or hate him in general, you can leave this comment section and this community because we love him and that's our opinion. Now, pack up your stuff, and leave his fans alone
Danizzel I reported you because I hate people like you ye so what if he is in it for the money (he's not) let people have the moments of things like shering depression never NEVER spoil that!
The beautiful music blending with Mark's voice makes me so calm. When he said that he would never press that button, I felt that. Mark, if you ever read this, just know that I love you and you saved my life once apon a time. And if you won't press that button, I won't either.
This game is amazing. It's such a good metaphor for how it feels after someone's died. When I was 13, my older sister died. I felt so removed from life that I now can't remember anything from the year she died, and have very little memory of a few years afterwards. I know factually things that happened, but I can't live in those memories, not like I can more recently. The hardest thing is resisting the temptation to join them. Especially during the first few months after they go. If you're reading my comment, remember this: if you ever feel so dark that you want to leave this world, wait. Wait until the next morning. Don't be afraid to talk to people. Eventually, you'll find a reason not to join your loved one/s. I've waited 6 years, and I've finally found my reason to live - I found myself. For the first time in my adult life, I want to keep living. I know you can find that thing too.
13Dragon I'm so glade you shared this and I'm happy to heard you got through it. Hopefully someone going through the same thing will use your advice. Have a nice day ❤
Thank you 13Dragon, I appreciate you taking time out of your day to say things like this, to give your experience in life. To share it so others can find de wae ( I regret nothing lol )
My gosh, reading all these comments hurts me so much. For the people struggling, please, just hold on. No matter how hard it is, I am positive that one day, it will all be alright and everything will finally be okay.
I lost my sister last year, and this game perfectly represents grief. You want to relive the memories, but they feel hollow. You want to forget about the pain, but you can’t. You need to keep on going, but it’s not as easy as it looks. Grief is something that never truly leaves you, but you can work through it, I’m still working through it.
i saw this comment and i truly want to be here for you. i understand how much it hurts to lose someone who you truly loved like they were your other half. i know i'm a stranger, but i want you to know that i am here if you ever need to rant or just to talk. i care and i want to be there for you, even though i don't know you. my instagram is @brandy00013 if you want to dm me :)
*Hugs* i'm so sorry I have an older brother and I have suicidal thoughts and they've been getting pretty bad but i'm trying to stay strong but if you need to talk my snapchat is @insane.girl2 we can talk and cry together if you need to
I fully support you and I'm so proud of how far you've come. There is no way for me to put into words how much you must be grieving but I hope to let you know that you have made so much progress and you'll learn to deal with this demon called death. It is not easy, as you already know, but it will become less burdensome with time. I'm always here for you, or anyone for that matter, that needs someone to talk to, or just someone to listen. I love you all and don't hesitate to message me if you need help.
its even harder though when the person that died in my life was someone so important, yet i was too young to have the memories of life with them. Its still insanely painful, but whats worse is that i don't have those memories of them to appreciate and cherish. all i really know about him is what he looked like. That's it.
Then cherish what you have. Grab on and never let go. It hurts, I know. The pain may still be there long after this comment is posted, but pain fades away. But never let those memories you have fade away.
Adrian Maldonado maybe they aren't disliking it for the reason you think they be disliking it because the feeling uncomfortable,or they do it because it was a quick action to show how they feel because they fear to comment how they feel
Voltron Trash there will always be those who dislike it for the soul reason of disliking mark. Or just trying to spread hate. People suck. They really, really suck. Video's like these are ment to support people. And bring us together as a community. Yet still there are still assholes who think they're funny. Fcourse you got people disliking the video because they feel uncomfortable about it. But i'm sure most of these dislikes are those fuckers who just love to see others suffer
I lost my mom back in 2016. She died at the age of 40 and left way too early, unexpectedly, and suddenly. Some days are harder than others. But I live for her.
“I’m never gonna hit that button. Not ever.” Wow, that was emotional. Knowing that the button is a metaphor for suicide, that is heart pulling. It’s basically “I’m never gonna kill my self. Not ever” And that makes me happy. That mark would never give in.
My depression makes it hard to remember past stuff so I don't have many memories of the one I lost. And it's so much more harder when you can't remember the good times. You only remember the times you fought, the times you yelled and called him names. The times you were angry. You get all the bad times and not even one single good thing.
yeah I do that and it does help in a way. But at the same time it makes me even sadder 'cause I can't still remember it. It feels as if someone else had written it. Or the person in the picture is not me.
There's not much anyone can do to bring the memories back.You'll find doctors throw pills, therapy throws sessions, you can sink thousands of dollars into trying to get them back. But sometimes the answer is to move on and make other memories, otherwise you fester at what you lost. Even if it's hard. Even if you don't want to. If you can't, Just rest. You can't push yourself into recovery, but you'll feel the need to move on and live again. Eventually. At least, that's what I was told. I'm still waiting for that moment...
So true I feel your pain cause I'm losing memories of her and I only remember the Times I fought with her and I had depression when I was 6 and I'm twelve and I Still have it
I started crying omg this is so sad tf... Never, Ever take your life . Even though I have never met you humans in the comment sections but, don't ever take you life... Survive.. Your beautiful, beautiful people... Now... Never give in. I love you And I don't need to meet you to know that your a good, kind person.. Never give up
I wish it were as easy as just saying survive. Killing myself is something that punches my thoughts every day at this point and I've been fighting like hell to the point where I'm about to drop. It sucks that every time I see comments like these I immediately think of myself as the one exception, but I can't help it. I'm sorry for commenting something like this.
Thank you both. yeah, it's still super tough to fight the urge, but I've been making steady progress with ups and downs along the way. Fortunately, I've found some amazing people who care for me when the people who are supposed to wont and who are willing to walk me through my crap which I am ever so grateful for. Once again, thank you for caring. It's people like you who give people you dont know a thing about encouragement to keep going. Much love
Half a year ago, a friend got hit by a train and he didn't survive. A couple of days ago, another friend lost her mom and for some reason I ended up watching this video. I'm not sure why, but watching Mark's strength gives me hope and even hapiness too. Thank you for that
"Its an everyday battle. Like, its a desire to fight everyday. You don't just wake up one day and be like 'I except it, I'm done, I'm over it, I'm good, I'm stronger then that, I feel strong about it'. Like that not what it's about, loss stays with you for your entire life. It can heal, And you'll be fine, you'll be better from it. But you'll always remember. And like, the temptation to give in is always gonna be there. It will always pull you back. That's why you gotta stay strong, cause you know. You survive one day, you can survive more, And you can keep going, And you can keep living, even if it can't seem like you will." That's deep.
How much you’ve lost doesn’t make your struggle invalid, because losing someone you love isn’t the hardest part. The most difficult thing about loss is being forced to live without that loved one. When it comes to grief, we are all equal.
(Kind of related, kind of not) I've always wondered "If pain is pain, does that mean someone being upset over not having designer shoes count as pain?" because maybe they've never been taught to be thankful for what they already have and have been spoiled. But at the same time, it's like c'mon. They're just shoes.
Did you ever notice how Mark's tone completely changes while he's reading the storyline? Its kinda the same voice he uses for Dark. Idk, i just find it interesting.
If we want to draw connections, it'd be good to note that darkiplier and warfstache both come from a backstory of extreme loss (Colonel's friends, and Damien's body).
a lot of this i needed to hear right now. i lost my cousin back in november, and it was, and is so difficult to handle. he was found in his car after being missing for three days, dead, and we still don’t know why, because his body was too decayed for them to do an autopsy. it hurts, so bad, and it came at a time where i was super stressed because i had just started highschool and then is death took so much more of a toll on me, not just because he was family or because i was stressed, but because we were so close. now when we go to family gatherings and the seat he used to sit in next to me is empty, it hurts. but a lot of what mark said in this video hit close to home, and i needed it. so thank you, mark, for playing this game and not just skirting around the edges of the real things, that real people experience. thank you.
Tori Jones - I’m so sorry. About 3 weeks ago I lost my best friend to brain issues...we were going to go into high school. She died the week we were touring the school. I know how hard it can be ,but I promise it’ll get better and you just got to hang in there. Find comfort that they’re in a better place. Just know that they’re people who love and support you in your difficult times.
Tori Jones I had two bury two of my cousins on May 20, 2018. The date of this game. The day after my birthday. I am so sorry for your loss, I truly am. I bet he was a wonderful person.
You'll get through. Don't hit the wrong button. That button doesn't exist for you. All pushing it does is hurt people in turn. Let those around help. Be supported, and support. Heal. Survive. You have it in you.
Tori Jones, I'm so sorry. No one deserves this. Just know that we're with you and we care...I know it's hard...but we can get through this together. The markie family.
I know that feeling, the only thing that one can do it's just ask himself "Why this happened, why i couldn't do anything?", i really wish that nobody had to live something like that, to tell goodbye to a parent, a friend or some other loved one. Thanks for this Mark, and it's nice to have you back.
hey dude i feel you... 7 years ago i have lost my dad because of FRIGGIN Cancer and last yeari lost my pet parrot(AN ARI!) that lived with me since i was 3! that is 8 years! and on my FRIGGIN BIRTHDAY I have heard the last words from my grandma (one of 'em) and they were "happy birthday live long and happy" and she died on the day of my birthday last year at her home at night...
Zevastian 1991 I have lost a family member as well as a dog and two cats and that lead to depression and self harm and... I just want to say DO NOT start self harm please I beg you just don't... Even tho I do I'm telling you to not start it...
This message may not reach out to everyone since my experience may differ from others, nevertheless, I am your fellow in this life through all struggles. I lost my other half just a few years ago. The dialogue in this game couldn't be more accurate for me. For a while, I was wrapped in a strange type of confusion. A month later, I exploded so hard on the inside, and everything lost meaning. There was no point to anything, because the one that made it all worth it is gone. I felt like a robot that was made to grow gardens, but was placed in a desert. A year of non-stop crying at random times and random places gripped me. My health declined, and I didn't care. I just kept walking, ignored everyone, worked, wrote music, and spent a ton of money on games I lost interest in every single time I started one. I tried looking for conventional ways of defeating my pain and restoring my soul, but everything was useless. Then one day, I sat down in total darkness and dug deeply into my memories. I remembered everything that lead up to this point, and played it back in my head a million times. I remembered everything about their personality, and thought about what they would be saying to me right now. A light switched on in my heart. I knew the person I loved more than anything in the world, more than anyone, more than I knew myself. I know they would be sorely disappointed in me for letting myself go into such decline, and not out of anger, but because they loved me dearly. Then I realized something very important. The ones we lose in life, the ones who love us dearly... more than anything in the world, they would want us to be happy for the rest of our lives, and we owe it to them to fulfill that wish, because that is the legacy they left behind for us. It hurts, and we will never forget them, but for me my loved one is still here, because I have a legacy to fulfill, and I have a great deal of genuine love to spread to the rest of the world. There is not a damn thing that can stop me. I love you all.
So true....Ill never forget my cousin, his mom (my aunt), or my uncle. But those I knew and can't remember. I still love them. They may had a terrible or good effect to me but I can't remember it and even though people will say they don't deserve any love. I'll still give it to them until I remember because....everyone deserves love even those of criminals...because what they need really is love, not doctors not anything but true love from someone of a friend or family
Reading these comments about such young people wanting to end their own lives hurt me. It’s terrible that anyone would have to go through that, especially when so young. If anyone of the people reading this are thinking about suicide or going through a tough time or anything like that, just know that you’re not alone and it gets better. Two things you’ve probably heard so many times before, but I can promise you that it’s true. When I came out as gay, probably when I was about 12, my devout Mormon parents freaked. I was abused, constantly told I was going to hell, and then, when that didn’t work, sent to conversion therapy. I had nothing and no one. At that point, the only thing I had keeping me from killing myself was the fear of hell- what had been how I thought of hell wasn’t even close to my parents hurting me, changing everything about how they treated me, because of something that had always been apart of me. That’s what caused me the most pain- probably more pain than the conversion therapy. Just knowing that their knowledge of who I liked made them hate me. When I graduated, I got a scholarship into a great college to study law. I moved and met my husband. Suddenly, I realized everything about my past situations that I hadn’t before, things about me that I wasn’t aware of. I made great friends, and felt more free and happy than ever. Sure, suicide hasn’t just left my thoughts, and it took years to lessen the want to just end my life. But now I have so many more reasons to stay, that by far overcome the reasons to kill myself- my husband, my friends, my job, even my cat and her kittens. It does get better, you’ve just got to let it happen.
Kpopster Jean I’m really sorry that you can’t come out, not being able to tell people about something like that sucks. And I know the effort of trying to become straight again, in my experience it just caused my life to be that much harder and I ended up realizing that there’s nothing wrong with being into dudes. I just never felt like I could be happy with a girl, and that was only proven by the relationships I did have with girls, where we both just became absolutely miserable because I didn’t like them the way I was supposed to. My husband is religious, so of course the conversations of wishing we were straight come up, but they all end in the realization that as long as we’re happy and not hurting anyone, who cares? I’m sorry about your mother. I lost my father a while ago and although he put me through so much, I still felt insanely lost without him and started questioning the choices I made, especially with my relationship. I realized just how much a positive impact he made on my life, despite the negative things. We weren’t necessarily close, but we could bond over small things like our shared music tastes and love of books. I suggest that if you do come out, make sure it’s at a time and in a place where you’re comfortable and are able to accurately explain the situation.
If they wanted help they would get it. They only put it in the comment section for attention. Cuz I mean what are they gonna get out of making their problems public besides attention.
Marissa Mcnair0x0 totally disagree! The internet is almost completely anonymous if people want it to be. Sometimes they don’t have the recourses or abilities to, or are just scared of being judged. What if they’re young and their parents won’t allow them? What if they’ve got such anxiety that they can’t tell anyone? Consider everyone’s situation.
hello. I'm also a Mormon, and although I am a member of the Church, what your parents did to you is not right. It pains me to read this, but whatever you are, be happy with it. I may be no one to you, but know that whatever you are, there will be people who believes and hopes for your happiness, even a mormon. -a well-wisher 🙂
the way he looks at the camera with a sad smile and shakes his head sympathetically makes me cry. it makes me feel safer which is stupid, but I still like the feeling. it's hard not to give in, but please don't. Even if you've forgotten, you're important and you can do it. Like he says, it won't go away so soon, but that doesn't mean you can't do it. Thanks, Mark. And I'm glad you won't press the button.
Lost my mom when I was 16. She was my best friend and it was really sudden and unexpected. Not a day goes by when I don't think of her at least once. You don't ever get over it you just learn to live with it. In my darkest times I think about what it would be like to see her again, but then I remember she would want me to continue for her. I Miss you momma. Thanks Mark!
Thanks everyone. It has been almost 3 years since her passing and it has been a long journey with me learning to cope with her death. I have a lot of support to help me through, without them I would not be here. I truly know that.
I know it wasn't really the focus of this video, but DAMN the art in this game is fantastic! Kudos to the team that did that, gave an emotional game the visuals to match!
I really liked the message you left, keep going like this, i really appreciate your videos, you made it very well with this topic - My Mom Even my mom likes your videos, Keep going!!
I come back to this video every so often when I feel like giving up and it reminds me how precious life is and to keep going no matter how tough things get. And reading the comments on this video and the humor in mark’s videos always perks me up, so thank you markiplier, thanks everyone.
Damn, okay. I'm actually crying. I've recently lost my great grandmother, who basically raised me when my mother didn't want to. And it just...this game had me in tears. Mark's words hit so hard and I'm actually in awe of the messages of this game and Mark's words. I'm in literal tears from the entire video.
What's up with great grandparents taking up that role. I lost my great grandmother 2 years ago now, I understand, she had a huge part in raising me, I lived with her for almost 2 years. I still miss her...
It sucks only being able to sympathize with those who’ve gone through this stuff, as I’ve never experienced this myself. As best I can, my heart goes out to you.
I lost my dog. Her name was Daisy. She was a golden retriever. She had won lots of medals and awards. She was such an optimistic dog. We loved her so much. She died of some kind of cancer. It hurt so so so much. I've moved past it now, but I still remember the special moments that I had with her. I will remember her for the rest of my life.
Air-headed Aviator believe me u don't want to i felt to often now hard but easiest for u u can better leave first then see others u love go and fade away out of ur live som of these lines she said in the vid u would be think sometimes swell
I started crying at 19:46 because I started to remember my aunt, who had unfortunately died because of a cancer tumour in her head, which ever so slowly killed her... …god I miss her.
It's a desire to fight everyday. You don't just wake up one day and acccept it. loss stays with you for your entire life. As an orphan I can really attest that that rings true I lost my parents 12 years ago when I was 8 and now at 20 it still stings. My grandmother died when I was only 3 years old and my grandfather died before I was even born. I hope my future husband/partner can maybe provide my kids with grandparents because I have nothing. But when you say there is nothing you can do that makes it easier I like to politely disagree, you made me laugh when I taught I had lost the ability, you spread awareness about depression and other mental illnesses, raise money for charities, help the make a wish foundation and so much more. So while I know you can't reach out to the people directly you still are able to affect them from a distance. And I'm extremely greatfull for that. If anyone has read this far thank you sincerly for your time and dedication to read all this.
I agree. Everyone has to go through a loss someday, but you have to get through it. I bet up there they wouldn't want you to be sad that they are dead, and would want you to make the best memories you could.
What a beautiful game. The music was so chill I loved it. Your commentary was so beautiful Mark. I loved the symbolism of you still not giving in. I love your narrations to games like these.
“I think I get the point of this game and why it's persistent. ‘Cause the point is, and the reason that it's persistent is that it's an everyday battle. Like, it's... it's a desire to fight every day. You don't just wake up one day and be like, 'I accept it. I'm done. I'm over it. I'm good. I'm stronger than that. I feel strong about it,' like that's not what it's about. Loss stays with you for your entire life. It can heal and you'll be fine. You'll be better for it but you always remember it, and the temptation to give in is always gonna be there and it'll always pull you back. That's why you gotta stay strong cause you know... You survive one day you can survive more and you can keep going, and then you can keep living even if it can't seem like you will.” -Markiplier Wow. So true. He says the most relatable things. We love you Mark (in the most not-creepy way).
Other_People's_Heartache thank you so much for writing it all down His words make the difference between when you play a game and when you understand it's not just a game
anyone who's struggling this is a message for you i guess, its something i would've wanted to hear so maybe you want to hear it too, i was there, for five years i was drifting and suffocating and i eventually went numb, i wanted to leave so bad, i almost did so many times too but then one night i decided to try, i stayed away from sharp objects and i worked on myself, i went to counselling, i started eating and interacting with the people who worried about me and it was hard and took two years now the pain is nothing but a distant memory of when things weren't as easy, things get better but they don't do it on their own, you have to take the effort to make them better too, and it isn't your fault if you have a bad day/month/year but even when things seem hopeless and like you're all alone your friends will help and things get better i promise, things hurt less, they get easier and you can do it, i believe in you and i'll be here for you too
@@Plasstyre I tried committing suicide a few months after passing, when it truly hit me. I haven't tried since, because I just hear her crying in my mind whenever I start thinking about it. But, some people aren't able to pull themselves through the pain, which is heartbreaking.
+Amber Adams I'm sorry to hear you attempted it. Really, I am. And I couldn't agree more, sometimes the pain becomes too much. I'm glad you were able to pull yourself out of that mindset of suicide, or at least find a way out of it. If you're religious, God bless you, if you don't believe, I don't mean to offend. You have a good day now.
I once read this, Your skin isn’t paper, Don’t cut it Your face isn’t a mask, Don’t hide it Your size isn’t a book, Don’t judge it Your life isn’t a film, Don’t end it
PBG I found someone say it in a comment on a video I forgot around 4 or 5 years ago? I took a screenshot of it a long time ago to remind myself. Idk if he said it or not since I don’t think he was as popular at the time.
Your skin isn’t paper, don’t cut it. Paper will cut you for you. Your face isn’t a mask, don’t hide it. Unless you’re trying to stalk, assassinate, or you’re trying to hide your wounds and bruises from being seen. Your size isn’t a book, don’t judge it. People will some reason do it for you because they’re jerks. Your life isn’t a film, don’t end it. Unexpected events will do it for you.
This game hits close to home for me... I didn't thought i'd cry that much... My best friend committed suicided and i couldn't help him... I tried myself to join him because i was alone... But I learned that he wouldn't want that for me... So I fight every single day against those bad feeling and try live normaly... Doing my best to make my best friend proud... Thanks for this video Mark.
Sadaou Maou I know how you feel I’ve lost someone close to I’ve thought about given up too but don’t life has so many opportunities and that lost one wouldn’t want you to give
Mark, today I was going to end it all, I wanted to watch my favorite TH-camrs, one last time, I stumbled on this video, and I'm not leaving, not today. Thank you
"i'm never going to hit that button. not ever."
this. this made me sob. mark is truly amazing and strong.
bvbblegum I agree and the way he dealt with the topics in the video are just incredible and one thing that strikes me every time I watch this video is how he speaks, like his voice is calming and understanding, even when he’s being a little less serious, his voice just seems perfect for reading what’s on the screen
TIME PLEASE
Telerisubs Sub if you’re wondering about what I said, it applies to the whole video and the original comment was at about 6:30-7 minutes in
Ned Arkins Thanks mate, appreciated
bvbblegum i am the exact same way

Stay alive!

" I'll never hit that button, ever."
I've contemplated it. And gotten to the point where my hand was just barely not touching it. But then one of your videos came on. My hands almost grazed it. I heard your intro. Followed by a greeting by jack. I pulled my hand away. I watched the video.
It was so close.
I could touch it if I wanted.
I pressed the other one. I threw away the button to give up.
I watched more of your videos. And Jack's too.
You both saved me.
I owe you my life.
I hope I never get that close again.
I'm sorry if this is too long.
I doubt you'll ever see this.
But I needed to get it off my chest.
I'm sorry.
I'll stay. For you.
If you need to talk I’m here 💞
I am as well
Yes. Stay here. For your family and friends:)
You're loved and you can always find support. it gets better. I promise you. Even if things look bleak.
You're gonna go far :> so very far...

I remember watching this last year and when I saw the “give in or survive option” my first thought was “just give in.” Watching this now my first thought was to survive. :’)
I am so so proud of you. I may not know you but I love you. And I am so glad you have changed your mind set. Thank you for living. I'm proud of you.
I’m so proud of you!
Good job ♡❤

Yellow rose Of Texas. We always need to remember that someone somewhere still loves us and doesn't want us to stay in a harsh time and sometimes almost positively will impact our future in some way.
When mark was saying "I *could* hit that button. But I'm not going to. I will never hit that button" I didn't hear just somebody saying "that's a terrible idea it'll be bad for the fans" I hear *mark* and I heard him talking from his *heart*, I heard what sounded like experience, and a lot of knowledge about this. I heard mark *wanting* to survive. I'm not saying mark is suicidal, I'm saying maybe he's had those thoughts in his grief, but he knew he wanted to stay. And I honestly think we help, and so does all his friends and family. He's an honest and loving, kind man. I'm glad I idolize mark.

I lost a friend who sat with me on the bus. Every day I saved a seat for her on the bus. She never came back.
My best friend recently committed suicide. We both struggled with mental illness. We were in it together. We both made a promise that if one of us committed suicide they’d give the other a heads up. At 4:45 am I got a message saying she decided to end the fight. Suicide is when you stop fighting the war you never knew you had to fight. I wish the best for you.
@@guest_exe7843 Hey, are you ok? Can you comment so I'll know you're fine?
Avery Yuu hey. Thanks for this comment, and sorry I haven’t gotten back to you. It means a lot you actually care. I hope you’re doing well. Have a lovely day and feel free to reply.
Please keep commenting so we know that you are okay.
Are you asking me to carry on replying?
17:20 when mark said that it touched my heart. My family doesn’t understand. The think I can just flip the switch and be better. But it’s a fight everyday. Sometimes the fight means not leaving my bed so I don’t end it. Sometimes it means leaving my house and not coming home for a long time. Sometimes it means escaping to work or from work. Sometimes it means sitting at my table and crying over the pill bottles as I think of the few reasons why I should stay alive. The fight goes on every day and it’s so hard. Mark helps me so much. Him and jack have stopped me from hurting myself so many times. They’ve helped me stay here this long. Thank you so much mark. Without you I wouldn’t be here anymore. I’ll keep fighting just so I can always see you in the next video.
You can do it! I know imma bit late but I still care. We are all family here
people dont get that it takes dfferent things to make it through the fight especially my family they think i can just feel better aswell some days i feel desparate to stay up so it doesnt feel like im wasting the day or doing nothing for a whole day even if i miss assignments...

I noticed that your Instagram is deleted and you haven’t uploaded in 9 months, I hope you are doing okay, we care a lot.
I hope you are doing well, there are people in the world that care and love you, and I know that it doesn't seem like it but they do care. I know this reply has been kinda cliche but I wish you the best and I hope you are alright.
"I'm never gonna hit that button. Ever" that means so much to me. I won't hit the button either
“The loneliness is suffocating.” Words I’ve repeated to myself for years.
Mark, you are the reason that I’m alive. I wouldn’t be here, on planet earth, without you. I wouldn’t know that I have a little brother. People were making fun of me, and I was dysphoric.Thank you, so much. I needed this, and I’m sure many others do as well.
I hope you can keep surviving and find more sustainable happiness than just TH-cam
Apollo The God this reminds me of my friend a lot thank you for being here, you’re so strong, and I’m so proud of you🥺💖
Thank you for staying with us.
If you ever need to talk to anyone i'm here (@uuni0_ on insta or twitter)
May I ask what your pronouns?
I lost my best friend to suicide the beginning of this year. He was the sweetest boy i ever met and there’s not a day it doesn’t hurt.
Edit: I’m so thankful for all the kind comments, for everyone that shared their story.
We all have to keep on going, even if it’s hard.
It’s good to know that none of us is alone in this.
Thank you and keep on fighting.
I’m so sorry. We’re always here if you want to talk
It will get better, cause it gets better. Just keep moving forward past the pain. Each day is a fight to push forward.
I haven't heard or even seen my best friend. A few months ago, she confessed she was suicidal. I'm worried about her . . . she showed me so many things she's done to herself. I'm so sorry for your loss as well. This shouldn't ever be about me.
I am truly sorry for your loss we are here if you'd like to talk
@@Kai-iy3kk honey, if you think it wont hurt you to be there for her, be there, but if you think it could hurt you, please just tell her to get help. I have a past suicide attempt and a history of self harm, there is such a stigma around getting help that you think it will be terrible, but it really helps. Her mental health isnt your responsibility, but if you can be there for her and show your love, do it.
"I'm never gonna hit that button"
Damn that hit. Just because it's a game. I'll never hit it. That hit hard.
Edit: why did 1.3k people like this. Thanks.
Edit: 1.9k people like this holy-
edit again: 2.1k holy heckersons
exactly. That part was.... wow.

@@xx_anime.edits_xx2085 oop
you should change that edit to 1.6k likes.
also, the way he said it and explained it... it lets you know that even if it's a game, you get to decide on what to do.
even Jack pressed the button. and he only saw 3 endings (live, die (by hanging), and *join*)
*you may not have hit the button, but the button hit you*
"loss stays with you for your entire life. it can heal and
you'll be fine, you'll, you'll be better for it, but you'll always
remember it.. and like, the temptation to give in is always gonna be there,
and it'll always pull you back. that's why you gotta stay strong because,
you know,
you survived one day.. you can survive more. you can keep going and then you
can keep living, even if it cant seem like you will."
"Time doesn't heal, it just teaches us to live with the pain"
Thank you.

"My mask is cracking."
"It looks fine to me."
Dude.. as someone who tries to smile 24/7 for everyone, I freaking get it.. love this game..
LittleMissLatvia1 it really hits deep when you know the feeling...
Oh so that's what the mask is about. I didn't get it the first time
Artificial happiness destroys the mind... That’s why one of the endings was about overdosing. They thought that being happy meant that they could forget, so they wanted to be happy as soon as possible. Pain is the hardest burden to bear...
Me: *plays the game, doesn't cry, is just in a heavy mood*
Him: *plays the game*
Me: *watches, starts crying from him talking about it and all the emotion I hear in his voice*
Yeah, I teared up pretty bad, too.
Your little speech near the end about the fact you kept living beyond the fact you could've gotten another ending. Was really meaningful. Thanks for this ride mark.
_"I can never love myself as,much as I will love you."_
I lost it at “every day I think about joining you” that just hit me hard. I’ve thought about suicide a lot in the past and it just hit real hard oh man. Now I’m just lying here crying I didn’t even make it to the 10 minute mark
Same here dude. :( I'm not much, but I'm here for you.
Same here. I lost it in the first 5 minutes. But this community is the best damned thing to happen in a long time. You are amazing, and i hope to always be with this beautiful community.
Same everdays a struggle RIP Dad and Grandma 🙏
Its fine we all have weaknesses but its you and the people around to help you feel better. I've thought about suicide as well but it was people like Jack and Mark and people in the community that made myself think how would that make them feel to find i killed myself i thank them to this day for everything they've done for me
Same here hon, don’t worry we’ll get through this. We’ve suffered so much pain so eventually we’ll get the same amount of good.
The good can’t exist without evil and the evil can exists without the good.
The universe is balanced so eventually we will get our good times, our happy hours, basically what I’m saying is..
It will get better.
We are enduring this pain for a reason, it’s like purgatory before heaven, bad before the good. It will get better and believe me I’m not just some stranger telling you this. I’m am your FRIEND that has been through and still going through the same thing as you but as long as I believe it will get better I *know* it will
"I'm never going it hit that button. Ever."
Why is it when he says it, he isn't talking to the game or just the camera. It's like he is talking to us, in person. This is why I genuinely want to live. Even though I'm diagnosed with suicidal ideations and have attameoted 16 times now.. I want to be here, for him. I want to meet him at one point.
I'm sure you will meet him one day, even if it's by a small gesture, like a heart on a comment or a simple hi. You'll get there, I can't tell you when or how but the possibility is always there.
"It's just a game. nothing bad is gonna happen."
This is not a game. This is a serious life choice. a life choice that you can't ignore.
Then by God you go meet him dude don’t let anyone stand in your way👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
I and everyone in this community love you and are here for you! we're so so glad that you exist.

Thank you!
The video hurts so much, but also remember Mark lost Daniel and his dad. He feels our pain and more
Helping others is an amazing coping mechanism. If anyone can't be talked down or convinced to change their mind from suicide no matter what, I beseech them to do so in the service of helping others. In the process they might even help themselves change their mind.
you can't just "change you mind" from suicide. You can get stronger, you can learn to fight back. To push one more day. But you can't just change your mind and say "Y'know... I don't think that's such a good idea." If you're suicidal then you can see no other escape except for death.
Who is Daniel?
error53ish Daniel Krye used to be a part of cyndago, you can find him in a lot of their videos. He passed away to an attempted suicide attempt 2 years ago. He was one of mark’s closest friends.
Sounds like more than an attempt if Mark actually lost him. =(
When I was in grade 5, we were called into assembly. For some reason I felt sick, shaky. Then we found a kid, only two years older. Used a rope and, you can imagine the rest. Throughout that assembly all I could think was, "i didn't know you, but I wish I could have done something.". Now, two years later, I feel like a broken record. Lonely, hurt and sad. My friends helped me and just know, if you're reading this, I care. We may not talk or even know each other, but I care for all of you. Inside of you are golden hearts to treasure. If you need a reason to stay, to not hit that button. I'm one. I care, I want you to live, to experience everything good in this world. You are an amazing human and you always will be.
Thank you. I care about you too, Laura
I lost my mom in March this year. This game is right, even when you "get over" it, you never really "get over" it. But like I always say, everything is going to be okay.
I hope you're okay. Ik it's hard, and I am crying right now. I remembered my grandma watching this vid and reading your text. I loved her.
😱😩😇
Be happy for your mother because no mother likes to see their child down
Damn man hope she is in heaven
+Mac Foraday I can relate to you secondhand. My grandmother has passed away half a decade ago, but to this day, my mother still feels the same pain and agony from that day. She always talks about how much she misses her parents and how much she wishes to join them at their graves. You never really recover from it, but you learn to live with it even though it plagues the back of your mind. Losing someone is one of the most difficult things in life.
I am honestly in tears right now. (Please read till end. Just....please)
I'm scrolling through the comments and am finding so many people who are saying Mark is a reason they stay alive, sharing stories (mainly their own), and even just saying positive things for others. As a person who tried to commit suicide at the age of 16 seeing all these comments, and hearing Mark's words makes me wish I had been here back then. I'm 18 now, and every day I work on distancing myself from *that* time of my life.
To all of you out there who come across this and are struggling, know someone who has struggled, have struggled: You can do it. You are strong, you are wonderful, you are exactly what the world needs. If loss is something contributing towards the struggle: No, it never does get easier. Nothing ever gets easier. BUT you get stronger. You learn to adapt. And one day it will not be your main focus anymore. It will not effect you as much as it does right now.
Keep up the fight, don't let anything or anyone stop you. You are brilliant. And you are strong.
And please.....if you ever need someone to talk with.....I believe there is an option to message someone on TH-cam. If that's the case mine are always open, and I will do my best to at least let you know you are not alone. If not, there is a website where free of charge you can speak with someone (typically a user who has gone through training, but some actual therapists are available) and have the support you need in that moment. Its called 7cups.

@@eclipz3794 although i dont really believe in hod or anything really i agree
Everyday I wanna die, inside and out.
Everyday I wanna die and not remember the bad things since I just turned 15 just barely a month. My uncle molested me and I don't wanna think about it at all... but it lingers. Being raised by my stepdad was worse because he was so verbally abusive to me and physically abusive to my mom and brother. As I moved out of my parents' house and moved into my aunt's place, it got worse. I was molested by my other uncle and I never told his brother (my dad). After finding out I was pregnant, I was on an emotional roller coaster about having a baby. After my aunt kicked me out, I had nowhere to live. Living from place to place, I finally stayed at my mom's place. After having my baby girl, my stepdad kicked my mom, my new baby and myself out of the house again. So we lived in the house that my first uncle that molested me. Few weeks later, we moved back into the house. My stepdad was verbally abusive to me if I slept, I am a bad mother. If I eat before feeding my baby, I am a bad mother. If you don't do right with your baby, I will kick you out and have full custody of your daughter.
My family is no help because they'll just backstab me. I have no REAL FRIENDS because they don't contact me like a friend should. I am by myself, with my thoughts, and my darkest friend there is... My dark cloud. Negative thoughts are my drug. As I grab a chunk of those thoughts I place it on a spoon, liquify it, and inject it into my system so I can get a negative high.
My daughter is an 8th grader. About to graduate. She has been in the Special Olympics for a while now, 22 medals from gold silver and bronze. She has been in swimming class since she was 9yo, over 2 dozen ribbons later. She has autism. And I love her.
Everyday I wanna die, inside and out... but I can't because I have a daughter to live for.
Thank you, Mark.
Nessa Jean If this is an honest comment, this story doesn't belong on a TH-cam video. Seek help. You'll find on the wrong day, your daughter isn't enough of a barrier. Trust me.
Nessa Jean things will get better. You just have to believe and hope they will! And i really hope for te best for you and your daughter. *virtual hug* its gonna be okay!
I am a single mom, 37-years-old, unemployed, full of depression anxiety and suffer major panic attacks, got a degree in general studies (a folder with a piece of paper that collects dust and does nothing for me) but never pursued anything because of my limitations, no one pushed me in my family in any of the things I can do... so many talents, yet, I am shy.
I really hope you will be doing well, both you and your daughter... and yeah... dont give up... ❤ im saying this as much to myself as well tbh...
The help I get doesn't HELP. It's just talking and talking and talking and pills that do not help but make me sicker and sicker... no solution. And if this was a community that was supposed to be Open and helpful, then I ask to please not to reply back. Trust me, I have tried everything and nothing works. Lol, funny word that I see that I do not approve of TRUST! A word that means nothing because I have no trust in humanity, and myself.
Mark: "I'm never going to hit that button..ever!"
Me: "I questioned hitting it..but you saved me.."
Good your life is worth living. Keep living until you are alive again
I wanna hit it, I wanna hit it so bad, but at the same time, I know I can't, so I won't.
@@frainium8644 if you hit the button you get free robux
I have to say, the art in this game is beautiful, depicting strong visual images to fit well into the story and overall message.
I can only empathize with what's going on, having never gone through this and not knowing anyone who is personally going through such heavy emotions. All I could do is wish all of you guys(who have/are experiencing this or know someone who had/is) the best, and I hope that you can find a safe space irl or in an online community. I hope that you get the support and hope to keep going despite everything that's happening.
Mark's the only person I know who understands *it* without my knowledge of him _having_ *it* the same way I and others have
Just because you don't know it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
He probably has some pretty dark thoughts, that's why he can smile so brightly. If he told you his darkest thoughts, would you run, or would you stay by his side through them? Would you throw help at him like you pity him, or would you teach him how to help himself? How would you react if he told you that he's been through The Suicide Gauntlet Of Thoughts? If he told you that he's had to literally hide weapons, avoid dangerous places, surround himself by responsibilities, etc... ?
Remember, some of the friendliest, brightest, most *happiest* of people have the darkest thoughts.
You should love them anyway.
Also, this was posted on my birthday this year. Coincidentally, all the people who've ever loved me unconditionally have died... I kinda wanna go where they are. Like, a lot. Like, I have had to literally force myself to hold on to railings to keep from diving into traffic, hide weapons so I don't use them, beg friends to take me along for rides so I'm not left alone long enough to overdose on random other people's medications, etc.... I even gathered the materials to tie weights to my legs to jump off a pier at one point to drown myself. I just... want to be with them, since I haven't found anyone worth staying for here.
My younger brother died of brain cancer three months before my older brother was murdered, and my younger brother's birthday is near Thanksgiving (the date of that holiday changes each year), and my older brother's birthday is the day before New Year's Eve. Coincidentally, my foster father, the man I wanted to walk me down the aisle when I was planning my wedding, died on New Year's Eve (his birthday was also in December, if I remember correctly). He died just before I was planning to ask that of him. My grandfather died of lung cancer, and my grandmother died of diabetes after losing both her legs and then getting really sick for a long time. And then there were James and Will, both young men who died in terrible accidents, whom I think really liked me but didn't tell me (girls can tell these things, y'know!!). There was a young man in college too, Ian, whom I got wicked vibes from like he liked me since he showed me more affection than anyone else, but then he hung himself in the basement of his dorm.
But I'm ... still here.
Waiting.
For what, even I don't know.
Maybe I shouldn't be though.
I know this is sad but is that Jefferson in your profile picture?
@@squid2333 For clarity, whom were you talking to? If to me, I used my own picture.
Didn't he try to kill him self at some point or were those just rumors?
Thank you for playing this. I'm sure we all have lost someone before. I know you're comfort to a lot of us. Thank you Mark.
Awesome dude. I couldn't have said better.
I actually haven't lost anyone yet. I wonder if that will ever happen
I haven't lost anyone, not anyone close to me. And I dread the day that I do lose someone close to me. One of my best friends is extremely suicidal and he plans on killing himself in two years and tbere's nothing I can do about it...
Artistically Photographed
Let him know you're there for him. And hold on to your friend, and don't let go.
I hope you never have to lose anyone.
Not someone but well my dog was like a person to me
I literally wrote an extremely depressed comment 3 years ago and I came back now and Read it. I was like...wow... just wow... honey see a therapist. Like damn. You know that was written at 3am in the middle of my third mental breakdown that night.
I always come back here to cry
I am glad you're back to read it.
i feel that. like this shit rlly gets you in the feels
NOT ME RELATING-
But seriously, I hope you're doing well and in a better place❤️
i hope ur doing well now
I've been dealing with loss for 7 years now. I never had anyone around. My parents disappeared when I was 8 and the one person who ever showed me love and compassion died right in front of my eyes. It still hard to deal with and I feel lost most days. It affects everything I do. I fight every day and question myself if I should give in or stay alive. I always will choose to stay alive, there are people who need me more than I need them and I couldn't bring myself to hurt anyone I love.
I can't imagine the sort of pain and hardship that brings into everyday life. You have my support and admiration for your strength. In all terror, sadness and grief there is a sense of hoplessness, that you have forever lost part of you, but I believe you can get that back or find a way to live above the pain and give to others what was taken from you. Giving can truly bring meaning to a life.
You aren't alone brother, have a good day and a better tomorrow.
Josh Garchow oh my god

Ray Gonzalez My moms best friends husband committed suicide last year. It was very hard for my moms friend and my mom. My moms friend is still angry at her husband (Of course) but she is getting better, and I am happy for her.
@@makkimix9535 I'm glad you're sharing this a lot more people deal with loss without knowing it, as for me I didn't know why I was depressed until I found out it was all from grieving loss.
I feel you I'm going through the same thing. But I'm always alone.
I have a friend who attempted suicide in January. Fortunately, she didn't succeed. She was in a rehab facility for a long time, and I didn't get to see her much before quarantine started. I have no way to contact her. Her parents monitor everything she does really closely, and she doesn't have a real phone. She hasn't posted on her dad's snapchat in months, and that was the only time I ever knew she was still out there. I wish I could tell her how much I care. I wish she could see how much everyone loves her. If you're out there somewhere, reading this- you might know who you are, and you might not. If you see this, just know that I love you. You are wanted. You are wonderful. You are kind and strong and courageous and I just want you to know that. I love you so much.
Once this is all over, promise you'll go to her.
i'm really sorry, i hope things are better for you now
I really hope things are going better for your friend! I know that this being the internet, words like these do not mean much, but I hope that these words can still reach you regardless.
My fiancee died 2 years ago this past May. I remember people telling me "he's in a better place now" "you'll get over it half the time you knew him" "I don't understand why you're so sad".
He belonged here, with me, there is no better place than that. I have never and will never get over losing my best friend and love of my life. I was depressed, and my anxiety got so bad it was hard for me to leave the house.
His family really helped me through the loss, my own family just couldn't understand how hurt I was. I still think about him everyday. I always will. You never get over losing someone you love. I did to get a place where I can now think of him and smile, instead of breaking down in tears. I do cry sometime, but mostly I feel great full for having known and loved him, knowing he loved me too.
I understand
I understand too. You really don't get over it, but it can become something beautiful even though it still hurts just as much as it did the first day.
He wouldn't want you to be sad that he is gone so instead, be happy for all the good he did here.
vamperus Man the people that told you that lack empathy. That's so cold hearted. I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm sure he watches over you every day. Jesus is holding him in his arms. ❤ I know it still hurts. God bless you.

Right now im in the hospital battling cancer and unfortunately the doctors said i only have a few months left but watching this helped me so much. I know when i leave its going to hurt so many people and im in a state of depression because all i can feel is the loss that is soon to come for my friends and family. But thank you mark so much for this amazing journey and for the time i have left, i really will remember this video and the inspring messages within it. Thank you so so much.
I had known someone in your position that passed a few weeks ago. It was her wish for her friends to party at her funeral because she didn't want sadness among them. I wish you the best in your time with us.
Lucy Lovelace we will all miss you, and I send support to your family. You’re so strong and I want you to keep fighting, until the very end, that way, you can say you tried and you have no regrets
Thank you and i will keep fighting to tge very end. You have just made a very sad girl so very happy
We all know your'e strong..
Not like weak ı'm.. But keep going friend! Even if ı'm weak, I'm behind you!
Don't worry my 5 year old bro is fighting cancer too dont worry
While watching this I scrolled through the comments and wept over reading people pouring their hearts out about losing their parents, grandparents, spouses, cousins, siblings, pets, even struggling with their own mortality for one reason or another. Maybe they needed someone else to read it, maybe they meant for it to become lost in the flood of words below, much like this one, almost like a slip of paper you let go of in a wind storm.
but sometimes, it can be good to talk to people about hard times, even if you don't know that someone is listening.
David Erickson agreed
i left my story... No one read it.After seeing all these people responding to others with love and support i wish someone had read mine, because that isn't something i get in real life...
Case Shuff I understand exactly why.
The Wanderer hey ^-^ i don't want to be presumptuous, since i don't know your story, but i'm sure that no matter how lonely you feel of isolated life seems, someone cares. someone will listen and love you. it took me a long time to realize the value of the people who care. when they turn up, cherish them, okay? stay strong

This video is exactly showing why Mark is my favorite TH-camr. He's so human, so incredibly human and thoughtful. He's got his way to speak from his heart to yours about everything. What a guy.
Thank's for all you offered me through those passed 5 years of following your journey and thank's again for what's coming next.
"ᴵ ᴰᴼᴺᵀ ᴮᴸᴬᴹᴱ ᵞᴼᵁ ᶠᴼᴿ ᴸᴱᴬᵛᴵᴺᴳ." Damn.. i really feel that. Everyone leaves me once in awhile. It hurts me, but i understand why they would leave me. I'd blame myself too. Im not good enough. I get that, but i wish they'd understand how much i try. Sometimes i just wanna leave how they left me, but i woulnt want someone to be in pain like i am.
And those people that leave you, sooner or later will be learning in life things like this, something that hurts them too, and you have to know that if life didn't make them do it whit you, someone will come, to experiencie good things in your company. You matter so much, to everyone that doesn't have meet you yeet, to everyone who stills have their life to be aligned whit yours. You should know, out there, will be somebody, always, for you. Even if it is Mak, thought the screen rigth now, he maybe isn't here buy he's a human, and he truly means the love an aprecciation that he speaks of. I believe so much that you will find people that will take the journey of life whit you, for the time it has to be, for the things they has to be, for anything. You are worth, and you are beautiful. You're not the moments of people going away, you re so much more. I love you. And i can say it so secure of myself, because i would never, never ever, want anybody to be sad. I can't control it, we can't control it sometimes, but at least we are here, figthing it.
I wrote this whole thing to you, because i know a friend that have that kind of thoughts of people leaving her, and i feelt the need to tell you what are you worth for.
I deeply apologize for bad english, i hope you have a great life. We love you.
If they left you, they weren't good enough for you anyways. The people who stay with you no matter what matter. Stay strong
It’s really hard to understand why people leave sometimes. Whether they wanted to or not. I just want you to know that one day you’ll find someone that stays and makes you feel happier than you thought was possible. It’s possible to live a happy life even if it feels like all you have is pain. My prayers are with you.
Please don't think about yourself like that. You are good enough and someone will always be there for you. Even if it's just me, a stranger in the comments section, someone will always be there for you
You shouldn't blame yourself. People leave sometimes but they make us more thankful for those who stay.
Nobody
Markiplier: *_DOGGO THE CAT_*
*NO SPACE FOR MEMES HERE! BY MEMING HERE, YOU CHOSE...*
Ah alright. It's just a meme
The vibe of the comment has been ruined, thank you
You could just have some respect
All of you
I’ve always wanted to name a cat Doggo. It’s on my bucket list lol
Mark: "I'm never gonna hit that button, never."
Well Mark, they always say follow the footsteps of those you admire. So, I'll try... for you.
I’m proud of you. How are you doing?
I just have to say... reading these comments... about all the people who struggle with death, suicide, and depression. It’s just so amazing to see the amount of people that reply to these comments saying it’s going to be okay. It’s just so amazing to see people who don’t even know each other trying their best to tell someone they matter. So just thank you to everyone in this community. It is so hard to find such a wholesome and loving community but I think I found one, you guys are some of the best people out there and I don’t know if you’ll see this but just know that I’m here for you and so many people are to. You matter and don’t ever forget that. Nothing makes you less than or greater than you are just as important as everyone else and don’t let yourself or others tell you otherwise.
Aww your so kind Taylor McGowan I 100% agree with you.
Looking through the comments everyone has something kind to say to that person. It’s actually amazing to see a whole community come together to support each other.
Taylor McGowan I think things like this bring people together because of the common struggle, even if they're not about the same thing. It's amazing to see strangers support each other like this. Even if they don't know what they're going through ❤️
I lost family and i agree its hard but having caring people out there make it alot better like my advice is go to family friends and even a church or find someone who went through the same thing and they can even help
It is certainly amazing how Mark has been able to bring so many people of different backgrounds who all have their own story to tell together. We may not know each other, but through Mark we are able to show the compassionate side of who we are and help each other as a community should.
I hope everyone has a good day, and thank you for the heartwarming support y'all have for each other. It's places and moments like this when I know that none of us are alone.
“If you can survive one day, you can survive more.” This was very helpful advice, I know people who just feel like ending it all will solve everything but dying won’t do anything but just make matters worse. It’s like once people die, they think it wouldn’t affect anyone which is why they died in the first place. You guys matter. A lot. Life can be hard but that’s what life is: it’s shit and terrible but there’s a reason why we’re alive and breathing, having a horrible life is better than not having a life at all.
From personal experience.. you need to fight not only to carry on, but to do something as well. Work, activities. This makes it all so much easier... but it's also so much harder when depressed.
But seriously, you _gotta_ do something, even if volunteer work. It makes your future so so much easier.
Mark, I don’t think you will see this, but I can still have hope.
Can you do a mental health series?
A series of videos that are supportive, and kind.
With topics like “You are loved.” “Happiness.” “Depression” “Loneliness.” And others.
Please, I know it would be more work, but I think it would be a very nice thing. I struggle with mental conditions such as adhd and autism, and with your deep, soothing, gentle voice, I think those type of videos would help me, you, and every single viewer who sees them.
Thank you, for doing everything, Mark.
He said he didn't feel he could give advice, but honestly he probably helps so many subscribers just by doing what he does and being who he is. At the very least, he helps me.
@markiplier
I'm autistic too and I agree it's tough. I agree so much mark should do that.
Out of 8 billion people in this world, when your person dies, you're just not the same person anymore. You just don't see the world with same eyes as before. The loneliness and silence is suffocating...
By minute 5 I was already crying..
The ending was amazing, thank you Markplier.
Undyla - Chan same
i felt that too Undla-chan
What were you crying at? The refrigerator?
SuperSlashDance omf😂😂
Undyla - Chan how did u cry?
I love how Mark just takes the time to remind us all how beautiful life is and how, even if we lose someone, we choose to pick the right button and live on. I love how Mark does these things
same for me who lost my only friend, my BFF died on new years.
I lost someone last year. A mate said something to me I'll always remember, "you don't move on, you carry on"
The death Fucked me up, made anxiety and OCD from childhood come back. But I'm getting better. Still struggle sometimes, but know it gets better over time.
Wink Blue proud of you.
melxna thank you it means a lot to hear that!
I'm sorry for your loss. I've lost someone important to me too last year.
Their memory will always live on, and how they impacted you will remain too. I hope that helps.
Aivilo Mills thank you man! Sorry to hear about your loss
Wink Blue sure thing~~
In June or July of 2020, I met my best friend Taylor online. We knew each other through a mutual friend, but never really talked much.
I found out she was extremely depressed, so I reached out to her. We started talking for a few minutes.
As the days went by, minutes turned to hours, and we talk every day now.
Ever since then I've been helping her out, giving her tips on ways to be happier, letting her know how amazing she is. She has come close to pushing that button much more than once, but I've always tried to be there for her at those times.
Taylor has gotten a lot better since then, which I am very thankful for. She's my closest friend and I honestly don't know what I'd do without her.
She's never told me exactly why she's depressed, but I've still been able to help her out, and it's truly amazing.
I’ve lost both my grandparents and nearly all of my childhood cats. The feeling of their loss has healed, definitely, but the memories of their loss are still with me to this day. Thank you for showing me to continue on forward.
More people should see this. Even though you said you aren’t an expert in this, I feel like you are the best in the field.
Thank you Mark. You are a pure soul.
Jlipper I understand how you feel. Losing grandparents sucks, and losing a pet stings just as much as losing a human family member
Seeing all the long and inspiring comments made me emotional, and most of them are about their loss of family members. My condolences to all of them including you. Continue your journey.
Literally this game is so sad, the animoo design influences to us, the music, how less the surrounding is D:
Including the story itself
why is it so sad pls help
Mark you are such a sweet sweet beautiful uplifting person... You mean so much to your fans. I hope youre having a good day or night Mark and everyone. If not, its ok and I hope you feel better soon❤️
Wez This comment, fsr, is my favorite of all time. Thank you❤
Danizzel If he was only in it for the money, why he go on tours, play this game?
Danizzel Hate speech is not how you handle things. If you don't like his content, or hate him in general, you can leave this comment section and this community because we love him and that's our opinion. Now, pack up your stuff, and leave his fans alone
Danizzel I reported you because I hate people like you ye so what if he is in it for the money (he's not) let people have the moments of things like shering depression never NEVER spoil that!
sushi321 ! I agree! Let his fans share their deppresion and enjoy the content he creates!
That "I'll see you in the next episode" hit hard
The beautiful music blending with Mark's voice makes me so calm. When he said that he would never press that button, I felt that. Mark, if you ever read this, just know that I love you and you saved my life once apon a time. And if you won't press that button, I won't either.
This game is amazing. It's such a good metaphor for how it feels after someone's died. When I was 13, my older sister died. I felt so removed from life that I now can't remember anything from the year she died, and have very little memory of a few years afterwards. I know factually things that happened, but I can't live in those memories, not like I can more recently.
The hardest thing is resisting the temptation to join them. Especially during the first few months after they go. If you're reading my comment, remember this: if you ever feel so dark that you want to leave this world, wait. Wait until the next morning. Don't be afraid to talk to people. Eventually, you'll find a reason not to join your loved one/s. I've waited 6 years, and I've finally found my reason to live - I found myself. For the first time in my adult life, I want to keep living. I know you can find that thing too.
13Dragon I'm so glade you shared this and I'm happy to heard you got through it. Hopefully someone going through the same thing will use your advice. Have a nice day ❤
Thank you 13Dragon, I appreciate you taking time out of your day to say things like this, to give your experience in life. To share it so others can find de wae ( I regret nothing lol )
13Dragon thank you 🐉
13Dragon this helps . Thank you
Keep striving for the better things and days in life!! God bless!! ❤️
My gosh, reading all these comments hurts me so much. For the people struggling, please, just hold on. No matter how hard it is, I am positive that one day, it will all be alright and everything will finally be okay.
Don’t we all wish that was true
That is true. And take it from the person that has lost a lot of animals that i loved very much and a family member that i also love very much.
YOU CANT TELL ME WHAT TO DO YOU'RE NOT MY REAL FATHER
I'm holding on. (I'm not suicidal, just depressed sometimes)
Thank you for your support man it really means a lot 🙂
I lost my sister last year, and this game perfectly represents grief. You want to relive the memories, but they feel hollow. You want to forget about the pain, but you can’t. You need to keep on going, but it’s not as easy as it looks. Grief is something that never truly leaves you, but you can work through it, I’m still working through it.
i saw this comment and i truly want to be here for you. i understand how much it hurts to lose someone who you truly loved like they were your other half. i know i'm a stranger, but i want you to know that i am here if you ever need to rant or just to talk. i care and i want to be there for you, even though i don't know you. my instagram is @brandy00013 if you want to dm me :)
Serif The Skeleton all of us have your back, stay strong friend, it'll get better with time I promise
Sadie Dickinson that means a lot
*Hugs* i'm so sorry I have an older brother and I have suicidal thoughts and they've been getting pretty bad but i'm trying to stay strong but if you need to talk my snapchat is @insane.girl2 we can talk and cry together if you need to
I fully support you and I'm so proud of how far you've come. There is no way for me to put into words how much you must be grieving but I hope to let you know that you have made so much progress and you'll learn to deal with this demon called death. It is not easy, as you already know, but it will become less burdensome with time. I'm always here for you, or anyone for that matter, that needs someone to talk to, or just someone to listen. I love you all and don't hesitate to message me if you need help.
its even harder though when the person that died in my life was someone so important, yet i was too young to have the memories of life with them. Its still insanely painful, but whats worse is that i don't have those memories of them to appreciate and cherish. all i really know about him is what he looked like. That's it.
This..
Then cherish what you have. Grab on and never let go. It hurts, I know. The pain may still be there long after this comment is posted, but pain fades away. But never let those memories you have fade away.
It pisses me off how people actually disliked the video.
Adrian Maldonado maybe they aren't disliking it for the reason you think they be disliking it because the feeling uncomfortable,or they do it because it was a quick action to show how they feel because they fear to comment how they feel
those are the people who think that emotions are overrated, but they will learn their lesson
Voltron Trash there will always be those who dislike it for the soul reason of disliking mark. Or just trying to spread hate.
People suck. They really, really suck. Video's like these are ment to support people. And bring us together as a community. Yet still there are still assholes who think they're funny.
Fcourse you got people disliking the video because they feel uncomfortable about it. But i'm sure most of these dislikes are those fuckers who just love to see others suffer
Most of them are probably not people, but rather bots. Although to be fair, bots are programmed by people, so your point still stands.
Adrian Maldonado right?! Like who tf is that heartless???
I lost my mom back in 2016. She died at the age of 40 and left way too early, unexpectedly, and suddenly. Some days are harder than others. But I live for her.
❤
You're doing great. Wish you all the luck and happiness.
Jennifer Kennedy i lost my dad back 8 years ago and i don't know my mom. It sucks people ha e to go through things like this. Why is life so hard?
“I’m never gonna hit that button. Not ever.”
Wow, that was emotional.
Knowing that the button is a metaphor for suicide, that is heart pulling.
It’s basically
“I’m never gonna kill my self. Not ever”
And that makes me happy. That mark would never give in.
a good one to watch after the end of unus annus.
may we never press that "give in" button, and keep surviving.
memento mori.
Unus Annus
My depression makes it hard to remember past stuff so I don't have many memories of the one I lost. And it's so much more harder when you can't remember the good times. You only remember the times you fought, the times you yelled and called him names. The times you were angry. You get all the bad times and not even one single good thing.
maybe taking pictures or writing about what you did for a good time might help you remember?
yeah I do that and it does help in a way. But at the same time it makes me even sadder 'cause I can't still remember it. It feels as if someone else had written it. Or the person in the picture is not me.
There's not much anyone can do to bring the memories back.You'll find doctors throw pills, therapy throws sessions, you can sink thousands of dollars into trying to get them back. But sometimes the answer is to move on and make other memories, otherwise you fester at what you lost. Even if it's hard. Even if you don't want to.
If you can't, Just rest. You can't push yourself into recovery, but you'll feel the need to move on and live again. Eventually. At least, that's what I was told. I'm still waiting for that moment...
So true I feel your pain cause I'm losing memories of her and I only remember the Times I fought with her and I had depression when I was 6 and I'm twelve and I Still have it
its going to get better trust me it has for me and it will get better for you to
Button: Give In
Mark: I’ll NEVER hit that button.
Me: Neither will I. EVER.
Fangirl TMurphy I can't say the same.
Summer Black well if you ever need someone to talk to this fandom is always open to chat, and give comfort if you need it.
Fangirl TMurphy I never have not ever will.
Summer Black are you ok?
Summer Black stay strong. I've fought through it, don't give in to your demons. Your life is worth something to someone, never give up
I started crying omg this is so sad tf...
Never, Ever take your life . Even though I have never met you humans in the comment sections but, don't ever take you life... Survive.. Your beautiful, beautiful people... Now... Never give in. I love you And I don't need to meet you to know that your a good, kind person.. Never give up
I wish it were as easy as just saying survive. Killing myself is something that punches my thoughts every day at this point and I've been fighting like hell to the point where I'm about to drop. It sucks that every time I see comments like these I immediately think of myself as the one exception, but I can't help it. I'm sorry for commenting something like this.
@@krabmeat9982 Thanks for fighting.
Krab Meat Hi, I hope you’re still doing ok 💛
Thank you both. yeah, it's still super tough to fight the urge, but I've been making steady progress with ups and downs along the way. Fortunately, I've found some amazing people who care for me when the people who are supposed to wont and who are willing to walk me through my crap which I am ever so grateful for. Once again, thank you for caring. It's people like you who give people you dont know a thing about encouragement to keep going. Much love
Thx I'm fighting depression and this video is what I feel like doing every day
Half a year ago, a friend got hit by a train and he didn't survive. A couple of days ago, another friend lost her mom and for some reason I ended up watching this video. I'm not sure why, but watching Mark's strength gives me hope and even hapiness too. Thank you for that
"Its an everyday battle. Like, its a desire to fight everyday. You don't just wake up one day and be like 'I except it, I'm done, I'm over it, I'm good, I'm stronger then that, I feel strong about it'. Like that not what it's about, loss stays with you for your entire life. It can heal, And you'll be fine, you'll be better from it. But you'll always remember. And like, the temptation to give in is always gonna be there. It will always pull you back. That's why you gotta stay strong, cause you know. You survive one day, you can survive more, And you can keep going, And you can keep living, even if it can't seem like you will."
That's deep.
In case anyone was wondering, the song is “I can’t forget you” by rxdlxst
How much you’ve lost doesn’t make your struggle invalid, because losing someone you love isn’t the hardest part. The most difficult thing about loss is being forced to live without that loved one.
When it comes to grief, we are all equal.
Damn.... No one is ever ready to say goodbye and you made that so much more deeper and it makes my heart hurt
(Kind of related, kind of not) I've always wondered "If pain is pain, does that mean someone being upset over not having designer shoes count as pain?" because maybe they've never been taught to be thankful for what they already have and have been spoiled. But at the same time, it's like c'mon. They're just shoes.
actual.lizard sub to my chqnel
This really breaks my heart just thinking about people who've suffered like that I wish I could give them a big supportive hug 😞
Did you ever notice how Mark's tone completely changes while he's reading the storyline?
Its kinda the same voice he uses for Dark.
Idk, i just find it interesting.
who else thinks mark should be a voice actor?
And kinda warfstache when he does the voice for the man with the boxhead.
If we want to draw connections, it'd be good to note that darkiplier and warfstache both come from a backstory of extreme loss (Colonel's friends, and Damien's body).
David Erickson》 Actually, he does quite a bit of voice acting! He's even voiced a character for cartoon network Mexico!
Exactly what I was thinking
a lot of this i needed to hear right now. i lost my cousin back in november, and it was, and is so difficult to handle. he was found in his car after being missing for three days, dead, and we still don’t know why, because his body was too decayed for them to do an autopsy. it hurts, so bad, and it came at a time where i was super stressed because i had just started highschool and then is death took so much more of a toll on me, not just because he was family or because i was stressed, but because we were so close. now when we go to family gatherings and the seat he used to sit in next to me is empty, it hurts. but a lot of what mark said in this video hit close to home, and i needed it. so thank you, mark, for playing this game and not just skirting around the edges of the real things, that real people experience. thank you.
Tori Jones - I’m so sorry. About 3 weeks ago I lost my best friend to brain issues...we were going to go into high school. She died the week we were touring the school. I know how hard it can be ,but I promise it’ll get better and you just got to hang in there. Find comfort that they’re in a better place. Just know that they’re people who love and support you in your difficult times.
Tori Jones I had two bury two of my cousins on May 20, 2018. The date of this game. The day after my birthday.
I am so sorry for your loss, I truly am. I bet he was a wonderful person.
You'll get through. Don't hit the wrong button. That button doesn't exist for you. All pushing it does is hurt people in turn. Let those around help. Be supported, and support. Heal. Survive. You have it in you.
Tori Jones, I'm so sorry.
No one deserves this.
Just know that we're with you and we care...I know it's hard...but we can get through this together.
The markie family.
I’m sorry to hear that I can’t even imagine
Mark's narration is so awesome!!
Hey Matt, have you met Fox?? YOU TWO ARE ON EVERY GOD DAMN VIDEO I WATCH. WTF DOODS!?!? STOP WATCHING MY VIDEOS!!!!!!
Matt Spicer I saw this guys comment twice
Matt Spicer I
True. His use of tone and feeling has a huge impact.
No your awesome
Im just now watching this but,
"Im never gonna hit that button"
That hit hard- this entire game got me.
hey, how are you?
I know that feeling, the only thing that one can do it's just ask himself "Why this happened, why i couldn't do anything?", i really wish that nobody had to live something like that, to tell goodbye to a parent, a friend or some other loved one.
Thanks for this Mark, and it's nice to have you back.
hey dude i feel you... 7 years ago i have lost my dad because of FRIGGIN Cancer and last yeari lost my pet parrot(AN ARI!) that lived with me since i was 3! that is 8 years! and on my FRIGGIN BIRTHDAY I have heard the last words from my grandma (one of 'em) and they were "happy birthday live long and happy" and she died on the day of my birthday last year at her home at night...
Zevastian 1991 I have lost a family member as well as a dog and two cats and that lead to depression and self harm and... I just want to say DO NOT start self harm please I beg you just don't... Even tho I do I'm telling you to not start it...
my dad had skin cancer too and he lost the fight on the last stage when it got to the brain and started shuting down everything
We all lost someone. I lost my cousin in traffic accident when I was 9 and my best friend when I was 13.
Zevastian 1991 I know the feeling...
This message may not reach out to everyone since my experience may differ from others, nevertheless, I am your fellow in this life through all struggles. I lost my other half just a few years ago. The dialogue in this game couldn't be more accurate for me. For a while, I was wrapped in a strange type of confusion. A month later, I exploded so hard on the inside, and everything lost meaning. There was no point to anything, because the one that made it all worth it is gone. I felt like a robot that was made to grow gardens, but was placed in a desert. A year of non-stop crying at random times and random places gripped me. My health declined, and I didn't care. I just kept walking, ignored everyone, worked, wrote music, and spent a ton of money on games I lost interest in every single time I started one. I tried looking for conventional ways of defeating my pain and restoring my soul, but everything was useless. Then one day, I sat down in total darkness and dug deeply into my memories. I remembered everything that lead up to this point, and played it back in my head a million times. I remembered everything about their personality, and thought about what they would be saying to me right now. A light switched on in my heart. I knew the person I loved more than anything in the world, more than anyone, more than I knew myself. I know they would be sorely disappointed in me for letting myself go into such decline, and not out of anger, but because they loved me dearly. Then I realized something very important. The ones we lose in life, the ones who love us dearly... more than anything in the world, they would want us to be happy for the rest of our lives, and we owe it to them to fulfill that wish, because that is the legacy they left behind for us.
It hurts, and we will never forget them, but for me my loved one is still here, because I have a legacy to fulfill, and I have a great deal of genuine love to spread to the rest of the world. There is not a damn thing that can stop me. I love you all.
supercellonova This may be the best comment on this thread, in my opinion.
THE absolute best
We can teach from experience but we cannot teach it.
Edit: The previous quote was my paraphrasing and it kind of took the original one out of context
So true....Ill never forget my cousin, his mom (my aunt), or my uncle. But those I knew and can't remember. I still love them. They may had a terrible or good effect to me but I can't remember it and even though people will say they don't deserve any love. I'll still give it to them until I remember because....everyone deserves love even those of criminals...because what they need really is love, not doctors not anything but true love from someone of a friend or family
You are amazing thank you
Reading these comments about such young people wanting to end their own lives hurt me. It’s terrible that anyone would have to go through that, especially when so young. If anyone of the people reading this are thinking about suicide or going through a tough time or anything like that, just know that you’re not alone and it gets better. Two things you’ve probably heard so many times before, but I can promise you that it’s true.
When I came out as gay, probably when I was about 12, my devout Mormon parents freaked. I was abused, constantly told I was going to hell, and then, when that didn’t work, sent to conversion therapy. I had nothing and no one. At that point, the only thing I had keeping me from killing myself was the fear of hell- what had been how I thought of hell wasn’t even close to my parents hurting me, changing everything about how they treated me, because of something that had always been apart of me. That’s what caused me the most pain- probably more pain than the conversion therapy. Just knowing that their knowledge of who I liked made them hate me.
When I graduated, I got a scholarship into a great college to study law. I moved and met my husband. Suddenly, I realized everything about my past situations that I hadn’t before, things about me that I wasn’t aware of. I made great friends, and felt more free and happy than ever. Sure, suicide hasn’t just left my thoughts, and it took years to lessen the want to just end my life. But now I have so many more reasons to stay, that by far overcome the reasons to kill myself- my husband, my friends, my job, even my cat and her kittens. It does get better, you’ve just got to let it happen.
Kpopster Jean I’m really sorry that you can’t come out, not being able to tell people about something like that sucks. And I know the effort of trying to become straight again, in my experience it just caused my life to be that much harder and I ended up realizing that there’s nothing wrong with being into dudes. I just never felt like I could be happy with a girl, and that was only proven by the relationships I did have with girls, where we both just became absolutely miserable because I didn’t like them the way I was supposed to.
My husband is religious, so of course the conversations of wishing we were straight come up, but they all end in the realization that as long as we’re happy and not hurting anyone, who cares?
I’m sorry about your mother. I lost my father a while ago and although he put me through so much, I still felt insanely lost without him and started questioning the choices I made, especially with my relationship. I realized just how much a positive impact he made on my life, despite the negative things. We weren’t necessarily close, but we could bond over small things like our shared music tastes and love of books.
I suggest that if you do come out, make sure it’s at a time and in a place where you’re comfortable and are able to accurately explain the situation.
If they wanted help they would get it. They only put it in the comment section for attention. Cuz I mean what are they gonna get out of making their problems public besides attention.
Marissa Mcnair0x0 totally disagree! The internet is almost completely anonymous if people want it to be. Sometimes they don’t have the recourses or abilities to, or are just scared of being judged. What if they’re young and their parents won’t allow them? What if they’ve got such anxiety that they can’t tell anyone? Consider everyone’s situation.
hello. I'm also a Mormon, and although I am a member of the Church, what your parents did to you is not right. It pains me to read this, but whatever you are, be happy with it. I may be no one to you, but know that whatever you are, there will be people who believes and hopes for your happiness, even a mormon.
-a well-wisher 🙂
@Sid John anyone can watch videos if they like as long as they are not spreading hate in the comments, causing harm, etc
the way he looks at the camera with a sad smile and shakes his head sympathetically makes me cry. it makes me feel safer which is stupid, but I still like the feeling. it's hard not to give in, but please don't. Even if you've forgotten, you're important and you can do it. Like he says, it won't go away so soon, but that doesn't mean you can't do it. Thanks, Mark. And I'm glad you won't press the button.
Lost my mom when I was 16. She was my best friend and it was really sudden and unexpected. Not a day goes by when I don't think of her at least once. You don't ever get over it you just learn to live with it. In my darkest times I think about what it would be like to see her again, but then I remember she would want me to continue for her. I Miss you momma. Thanks Mark!
I'm so proud of you for being so strong ❤️
Skylar Gray I'm sure she loved you
Skylar Gray my dad died when i was 10. So it happend last summer
My grandfather died when I was really young.. I know how it feels when someone your extremely close to dies... I hope you get a lot of support
Thanks everyone. It has been almost 3 years since her passing and it has been a long journey with me learning to cope with her death. I have a lot of support to help me through, without them I would not be here. I truly know that.
I know it wasn't really the focus of this video, but DAMN the art in this game is fantastic! Kudos to the team that did that, gave an emotional game the visuals to match!
'Team' it was made by one person, actually! Her name is Angela He and there’s a sped up video of her making this game on her channel Angela He/zephyo
This game was made by Angela He in just 48 hs. Kudos to her!

Even my mom likes your videos, Keep going!!
Show her Getting Over It series of Markimoo
I come back to this video every so often when I feel like giving up and it reminds me how precious life is and to keep going no matter how tough things get. And reading the comments on this video and the humor in mark’s videos always perks me up, so thank you markiplier, thanks everyone.
Damn, okay. I'm actually crying. I've recently lost my great grandmother, who basically raised me when my mother didn't want to. And it just...this game had me in tears. Mark's words hit so hard and I'm actually in awe of the messages of this game and Mark's words.
I'm in literal tears from the entire video.
What's up with great grandparents taking up that role. I lost my great grandmother 2 years ago now, I understand, she had a huge part in raising me, I lived with her for almost 2 years. I still miss her...
It sucks only being able to sympathize with those who’ve gone through this stuff, as I’ve never experienced this myself. As best I can, my heart goes out to you.
I’ll say this on the behalf of me and most others here, thank you, and I hope it won’t happen to you any time soon
I hope you never have to experience the pain of loss, because it hurts so much.
I hope you will never experience that kind of a thing. Thank you for understanding
I lost my dog. Her name was Daisy. She was a golden retriever. She had won lots of medals and awards. She was such an optimistic dog. We loved her so much. She died of some kind of cancer. It hurt so so so much. I've moved past it now, but I still remember the special moments that I had with her. I will remember her for the rest of my life.
Air-headed Aviator believe me u don't want to i felt to often now hard but easiest for u u can better leave first then see others u love go and fade away out of ur live som of these lines she said in the vid u would be think sometimes swell
hello people! The creator of this game is Angela He/ zephyo, you can see the behind the scenes of making this game on her channel
I KNEW IT! THAT ARTWORK IS DEFINITELY THE SAME AS LIVE PORTRAIT MAKER. I knew I wasn't bein weird
Loki Godbolt omg same
Yass! I have her game!!
Yeah! I have her game! I knew the artwork was familiar!!
And Danizzel, that was rude.
I started crying at 19:46 because I started to remember my aunt, who had unfortunately died because of a cancer tumour in her head, which ever so slowly killed her...
…god I miss her.
It's a desire to fight everyday. You don't just wake up one day and acccept it. loss stays with you for your entire life. As an orphan I can really attest that that rings true I lost my parents 12 years ago when I was 8 and now at 20 it still stings. My grandmother died when I was only 3 years old and my grandfather died before I was even born. I hope my future husband/partner can maybe provide my kids with grandparents because I have nothing. But when you say there is nothing you can do that makes it easier I like to politely disagree, you made me laugh when I taught I had lost the ability, you spread awareness about depression and other mental illnesses, raise money for charities, help the make a wish foundation and so much more. So while I know you can't reach out to the people directly you still are able to affect them from a distance. And I'm extremely greatfull for that. If anyone has read this far thank you sincerly for your time and dedication to read all this.
I feel your lost
thinthle *hug*
I agree. Everyone has to go through a loss someday, but you have to get through it. I bet up there they wouldn't want you to be sad that they are dead, and would want you to make the best memories you could.
TheBlackDemon I agree
thinthle I lost two of my cousins the first when I was 8 and the other and the other when I was 9
I think...
What a beautiful game. The music was so chill I loved it. Your commentary was so beautiful Mark. I loved the symbolism of you still not giving in. I love your narrations to games like these.
Anyone know where I can listen to this
Fareed Ahmed Look for "You Left Me OST"
Link please
Thanks
“I think I get the point of this game and why it's persistent. ‘Cause the point is, and the reason that it's persistent is that it's an everyday battle. Like, it's... it's a desire to fight every day. You don't just wake up one day and be like, 'I accept it. I'm done. I'm over it. I'm good. I'm stronger than that. I feel strong about it,' like that's not what it's about. Loss stays with you for your entire life. It can heal and you'll be fine. You'll be better for it but you always remember it, and the temptation to give in is always gonna be there and it'll always pull you back. That's why you gotta stay strong cause you know... You survive one day you can survive more and you can keep going, and then you can keep living even if it can't seem like you will.”

Wow. So true. He says the most relatable things. We love you Mark (in the most not-creepy way).
Other_People's_Heartache thank you so much for writing it all down
His words make the difference between when you play a game and when you understand it's not just a game
@Archaix Tachibana, no problem. I figured someone would appreciate it like I did
anyone who's struggling this is a message for you i guess, its something i would've wanted to hear so maybe you want to hear it too,
i was there, for five years i was drifting and suffocating and i eventually went numb, i wanted to leave so bad, i almost did so many times too but then one night i decided to try, i stayed away from sharp objects and i worked on myself, i went to counselling, i started eating and interacting with the people who worried about me and it was hard and took two years now the pain is nothing but a distant memory of when things weren't as easy, things get better but they don't do it on their own, you have to take the effort to make them better too, and it isn't your fault if you have a bad day/month/year but even when things seem hopeless and like you're all alone your friends will help and things get better i promise, things hurt less, they get easier and you can do it, i believe in you and i'll be here for you too
i'm so proud of you for getting better, that's an amazing achievement and i'm so glad life has improved for you now!
Wounds heal scars do not, but over time those scars will not ache or hurt, they'll never leave but they will show your bravery.
Couldn't agree more.
I'm finding some scars do not stop aching, or hurting. Losing a parent and/or child are things that never ends. Some days I still feel like dying.
+Amber Adams Stay strong for the people you lost. They'd want you to live for them.
@@Plasstyre I tried committing suicide a few months after passing, when it truly hit me. I haven't tried since, because I just hear her crying in my mind whenever I start thinking about it. But, some people aren't able to pull themselves through the pain, which is heartbreaking.
+Amber Adams I'm sorry to hear you attempted it. Really, I am. And I couldn't agree more, sometimes the pain becomes too much. I'm glad you were able to pull yourself out of that mindset of suicide, or at least find a way out of it. If you're religious, God bless you, if you don't believe, I don't mean to offend. You have a good day now.
I once read this,
Your skin isn’t paper, Don’t cut it
Your face isn’t a mask, Don’t hide it
Your size isn’t a book, Don’t judge it
Your life isn’t a film, Don’t end it
-Galaxy Teh Skeleton-
This is really nice, i needed that thank you
-Galaxy Teh Skeleton- but life always has an end
PBG I found someone say it in a comment on a video I forgot around 4 or 5 years ago? I took a screenshot of it a long time ago to remind myself. Idk if he said it or not since I don’t think he was as popular at the time.
I disagree
Your skin isn’t paper, don’t cut it. Paper will cut you for you.
Your face isn’t a mask, don’t hide it. Unless you’re trying to stalk, assassinate, or you’re trying to hide your wounds and bruises from being seen.
Your size isn’t a book, don’t judge it. People will some reason do it for you because they’re jerks.
Your life isn’t a film, don’t end it. Unexpected events will do it for you.
This game hits close to home for me... I didn't thought i'd cry that much... My best friend committed suicided and i couldn't help him... I tried myself to join him because i was alone... But I learned that he wouldn't want that for me... So I fight every single day against those bad feeling and try live normaly... Doing my best to make my best friend proud... Thanks for this video Mark.
Sadaou Maou sorry for your lost
Well I’m sure your friend is proud of you and I’m extremely proud of you for staying strong!
My Condolences Hun. I am sorry to hear that. But yes, keep on fighting Cause you are so worth it! :)
Sadaou Maou I know how you feel I’ve lost someone close to I’ve thought about given up too but don’t life has so many opportunities and that lost one wouldn’t want you to give
