You are the most amazing man Hazey. You'll never know how many people you've seen through this clusterfeckery the world's been the past few years. I'm one of them and I cannot express how much gratitude I have to you for that. Keep walking, mate. You're carrying us all in your pack.
Exactly what they said 👌🏼
As above 👆
🙏🏻❤
Ditto
👏👍
I'm now watching this at 03.51 in morning and I've been watching all night im struggling with life . Watched over and over ur Channel I love it and I love what u do.
Probably the best video you have ever done, honestly, I don't think you know how much h you help people. My daughter is struggling at the moment, turns out a lot more than I knew about and it breaks my heart. Watching this has given me the idea to take her on a wild camp with me and my dog. It's far far from what she's used to but I reckon she'll get some good stuff from it so thanks for giving me the idea mate. When you find out that a loved one is having these terrible thoughts of ending it all, you feel panic and dread and fear all at once, I mean how can i a 57 year old fart help a gorgeous 30 year old woman, but I think I can by taking her to the hills and living with nature for a couple days.
Anyway pal, you truly are an inspiration to so many people, long may it continue my friend
It is always a shock when someone close to you is struggling but you were not aware, but believe me , she needs you .
I’m a mental health nurse and so I’m trained to help people through tough times. Despite my training I still often find it hard, so you should be really proud at the great work you do and the courage you have to be vulnerable and reach out to others. Keep it up Hazey and hope to see you somewhere beautiful in nature one day.
Mate, I was literally talking about SADs today with one of my sons. I used to struggle with it every year and get so depressed about it. After I left the army it was a struggle and looking back now I was a mess, especially after the breakup of my relationship with my sons mother. Being outdoors and giving myself a test and pushing myself in all weathers and circumstances helped me. Adversity made me healthier mentally and put me in a better place. That was 17 years ago and although I have small troughs of depression, I feel a lot happier and content. Depression is not the end of the world.
Like looking in the mirror bro😲🇬🇧⚔ KTF🙏
Getting out is the best food for the soul. Hikes through the forest. It’s my happy place.
Brilliant. So true. Sometimes all we need is a quick MEDIC moment and life is 👍
We need God and nature th-cam.com/video/XtRIyxhkyUw/w-d-xo.html
Your caring comes through, even with the flu. Take care of yourself. Thanks for the encouragement. Seasonal Affect is real!
Thank you for having the courage to be vulnerable and sharing the downs as well as your ups. If I was given one wish it would be that humans didn’t suffer with their herds. Being poorly certainly doesn’t help either. I shake my chubby fist to the head demons we all suffer with at one time or another. Take care of yourself and be kind to yourself. Sending you and everyone love ❤️
I"m not crying you're crying lol. I feel this brother. Truly.
Much love back at ya Hazey and thank you for everything you do!
Infact much love to all of you ❤
Just keep doing what you do when you can. We will still be sat here in front of our screens when you post. The reason people reach out to you is because your real (not just pixels) and we relate to your ups and downs and how you move forward to try and overcome obstacles. One thing is for sure, you will leave a trace.
What a wonderful post.
Hope you're feeling better Hazey. Don't underestimate how many ppl you help just by putting videos out. Your videos and banter got me off my arse and back out into nature. I'm doing better and have tons of walks planned and 100s of miles under my belt. That is directly as a result of your honesty, arty video skills and mostly your sense of humour. As for SAD and the flu. Yeah it kicked my arse last month, then I kicked its arse. Keep the faith brother.
How true is this! I've been there myself and I know solitude in nature changes your life. It still does for me. Beautiful!
The best video i have ever watched. If this comes up as Ava's my daughter, but it's her dad. I'll watch many time.
It’s lovely listening to you speak.
Have a wonderful new adventures this 2023. Enjoy your videos so much.
Hazy I was stood on the cliffs ready to go, until the thought of leaving my kids, made me stop think, 3 years later my boy has found an interest in the outdoors,,, best wishes Mike
Your are the reason i fell back in love with the outdoors, I owe you a lot! i speak for all your fans when i say Thankyou for being you!!💚
My love goes out to all of you!!Stay Strong!❤️
Great stuff Haze. More people need to talk! I remember back in 2015. I sat in my room and wrote a list. On the left hand side it said kill yourself. On the right it was a list of goals and achievements I wanted to pursue. Been on a mission since. Mindset and learning to be happy alone are the BIGGEST things. I wish anyone and everyone who reads this all the best and a happy Xmas!!! X
Respect brother!!! It's guys like 'Hazey' (I feel like we're m8's as I've been stalker-ish viewer on Tou-Yube for a numero of years) that keeps it real and fun, I actually full-on LOL watching his videos and would honestly feel like I've met a real....C-leb-rart-aye if I ever bumped into him. All thee best for 2023 and beyond m8, best hobby ever........
Hello Hazey, I've been in a very dark place for about 5 years. Can't work, can't sleep properly and can't leave the house alone. I recently stumbled on your content and you have inspired me to get back to nature and take up hiking and camping. Its the only think that has motivated me to do anything in a long time. So I just wanted to say thank you for the videos and thank you for the advice and thank you for being you basically, thanks man
Out off all your great vids I think this is the best !
I tell others to get out , just be in nature , think about nothing ,just sit .... and smile ! WELL DONE Hazy ..
It gets better. I had a breakdown over 22 years ago. I got lots of help and support, took time out of life, and did what I could, when I could. The most important thing I learned through that adventure is to stop believing all the thoughts I think because most of them were not compassionate or empowering toward me. I still slip sometimes, but I know the symptoms, and I have a vast toolbox to help myself get back to compassionate and kindness.
Oi! Oi! Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Congratulations, Hazey! Just read the news, GET IN!!!!!
Hazey, I haven’t been around for a while but you are wonderful. The kindest fella. Seriously. Love you man, you are something else 😢❤xx
Love you, man! You help so many people without knowing but you also need to make sure you don't take on the responsibility alone. You're a good honest man and we all respect you for it!
Mate i have been struggling for a couple of years, not reaching out but wanted to say your vids have helped me, i have laughed with ya, laughed at ya and felt the emotional stuff too. Its not your job to take on mine or anyone elses troubles and dont feel bad for not doing so. Keep making these and thats all ya can do. Much love for chrimble and hope you get shifted of the ode lung butter soon.
Hello Haze. Thank you. I wish I could find these secret locations ...I hope to go Scotland for some solitude and wild swimming when the weather is warmer....
The moment which you describe...wild swimming and sun rays....I identify with that absoutley. If I knew jow to find these beautiful remote places which you do and if I jad a cold proof sleep system ( even my western mountaineer is not warm enough for me!!!) I would be out there weekly.
Thank you for your honest videos
Thank you, wise and helpful words. Thank you. Don't stress about getting out, you know that wilderness opportunity will arrive again. Take care. Harry
Listening to you and realising it's like looking and listening to myself. Life is nature. Keep well Bud and remember your not the only one that feels this way.
I come back to the video all the time. It's helped me immensely. Just to know there's another person out there with their head in a shed. All your videos help. Sometimes I just need to see you huddled in a soggy tent, with a packet of rehydrated spag-bol stuffed up your jumper to make things a little bit better. Thank you ! ❤
Lovely to see you being yourself, 🙏
Uncle Hazy, mate...you helped me (and likely thousands of others) through a couple years that were pretty rough on the entire planet. I appreciate you and a few other channels more than I could ever express.
Now that I have my own outlet, I intend to do a #showusyoursteak video for mental health of my own. I could use another round of that myself.
So, whether you ever record another second of it for us or not; I hope you are enjoying more time outdoors, and are healthy and stay that way in the coming year. Much love, brother Hazy. ✌🍃
Just lost my old man mate. Don't ever worry, by doing what you do you help people way more than you will ever know. The burden of being a legend buddy. Hope all gets better with you and those around you, in what sounds like tough times. Hope all are OK. Much love, a southern brother.
Sending love and well done on the deserved winning of outdoor filmmaker of the year! Congrats fella, your a star
I suffer from mental health issues I have severe arthritis I used to walk but now I can't your videos inspire me keep up the good work mate 👍 xx
Peace and love to you all🙏
What a fab human you are mate. It’s not always about showing strength ,but vulnerability too. You combine the both perfectly , and act as a real inspiration to so many of us.
How many people fist bumped the screen in the outro ? I know that I did ✊😆
Couldn't say it any better myself. Haze you have a massive loyal following and I love you do what you do for 'YOU' the likes and us fellow appreciators are a bonus, your videos make us laugh and your my go-to you-tube search when I don't manage to get out camping due to work issues, family commitments etc I feel like I've a wee fix watching your vids inbetween trips. Thank-you and keep well pal.
Stay strong my man. You will always find solace in nature. 👍
no joke haze im a pro dog walker and walk dogs that would be in the house all day,i get depression im on tablets but every year i feel down ,but i push myself ,,the crisp frozen mornings are beautiful ,and the thought of the dogs not getting a walk pushes me on ,,anyone feeling down, push yourself to go for a long walk and ill promise you you'll feel better ❤
Try getting off the tablets, TH-cam depression meditation and meditate in bed before you go to sleep and when you wake up in the morning, after you have meditated listen to ‘positive affirmations’ again every night and every morning in bed.
Your quite simply the best TH-camr in the UK. Others may have more skills but NO ONE is as interesting and entertaining than you mate. All the best for 2023.
Awesome message - peace and love to everyone x
Thank you, your videos are so soothing and inspirational. Feels like chatting with a great pal.
Be safe be well and stay as you. The future is brighter when you stop repeating yesterday. Take care always happy Christmas
You my friend are a legend, thanks for you being you. Peace out brother X
Stick with nature as much as possible Haze. It will help you all throughout your life. Xo
Watched your videos for years now mate. You’ve helped me so much and I can only hope you feel better as soon as
buzzing for the summer to get!! 1st lock down got me too... but have to work through it and nature is the heeler! peace out to you!!
Mate been watching u for years didn't realise u felt like this I've had 2 years or hell I need to get back out there cause the fresh air help more then u know keep going pal
Congratulations Bobby. If I'd known there were beers in it I'd have bought an extra ticket. Congrats Hazey too for the well deserved award 🍾🎉🥂 Get well soon 🙏
This means more than any camping video. For someone who seems so chilled and positive, to be as vulnerable as you were means a lot. I've struggled over the last 2 years so feel ur words. Small steps. Mental health is a tough mudder, not a sprint. Much love
it's never pointless listen to haze waffle on. these are the best vids imo. this flu has been brutal lol....and as for sads yes I used to suffer with it,,,,nowadays I good threw all life's trials n tribulations....haze you are a huge help regarding mental health u probably don't know how good these talks are for us all. you helped me and will continue im sure
Hazey you truly are a beautiful human ❤️
Much love from your friends in Wales
Ritchie veteran and Raven xxx
We love you mate .stay safe and be well xx
Well Hazy , I suffer from Throat Cancer and C.O.P.d , so I am Suffering this Winter , To cold to Go out for Me ! , will be glad when things warm up !🙂 , Be Well my Friend , Strength ,Honour and Much Respect , Have a Wonderfull Christmas , and A Very happy New Year . 🙂👍
As a struggling musician, I'm confronted and tested daily on the strength of my dream. Why does this have to be my passion? If I liked anything else I would've had a college degree by now, but as it is, there is nothing else.. I feel you Hazy
lol - these little "chats" are terrific. stay well haze. loving the content.
I have cycled up that incline many a time. Lovely to see it in the snow.
Setting goals however small is taking responsibility through action and a plan and that changes the internal chemicals to a improved life. Don't underestimate Hazey how much encouragement cab help. You solution hit the mark.
Spring comes and the pace of a walking lady 🙏 Thanks for sharing Hazy, your videos help a lot and got me back outside in nature
Thankyoue hazy you help more people then you will ever know x thankyoue xxx
Much love and big thanks for your wisdom Hazey.
Nice video Hazy. The message of the video was brilliant. Congratulations also for winning an award 👋👋👋
I hope you have someone ( maybe Fern) to give you a hug…because hugs also help a bit, but in case not sending you a virtual one from the Caribbean.
I respect you so much for talking about this stuff. You come across as such a genuine person and it's helpful for a lot of people to see videos like this.
Thanks for sharing. Hit a chord with me. Nature has always helped me even though sometimes nothing feels like it would help.
I recently started watching your videos again and they are helping me. I have a big life change coming up in January and the nerves are a bit fried from the past year so thank you for these videos brother. Much love from America
Your honesty is very refreshing. Many thanks from Maine in the US
Only just watched this and man you speak the truth. Even just the bit about there being so many planes down south and that you wished you were back in Yorkshire! A sign you were wanting calm and peace!
Loved the video mate, keep those fingers warm this winter ❤
'Heads a shed' ooo a plane..love ya man :)
Congrats on your recent award big up Hazey
You’re the best Outdoors TH-camr out there. the laughs you bring to people is Amazing! Pleased you’re feeling in a better place. I followed you Foot steps on the Cleveland Way from your inspiration.
Thank you Hazy!
Thought I'd revisit this video Hazy as it helped me before and shifted my mood. Yep you've done it again, head was nearly shed but a bit of Hazy wisdom has kicked my arse. Cheers mucka
Hello mate. I love your videos, and I found this one very touching. You have a heart of gold. Me and the Mrs are moving to York just after Christmas, so that we can be near the places we love. It's amazing how healing nature can be, and you're not wrong in what you say. My wife is a psychotherapist and she tries to help people in difficult times. But like her you must remember not to make yourself responsible. You can try and do your best to help and that's what you've done, but mental wellbeing is something people ultimately have to find for themselves. It sounds like you recently turned a corner, and I'm happy for you. Be well my friend and keep being the good person you are. X
Dealing with mental health and staying in a positive mindset is definitely a challenge,yes there’s an option of self destruct,self loathing and beating yourself down,but the only person who’s going to create a healthy mentality right choices and positive direction is you,small steps lead to big changes,top video hazy👍👍
Hard to know what to say after watching that, you always manage to hit the spot and have probably helped way more people than you will ever know. Thanks for sharing and helping everyone who’s struggling realise they’re not alone, it’s all any of us can do 😊
Ay up.
Totally agree buddy, nature is the best form of medication 👊💚
It's too hard for me to get across what that video did for me haze in my current mindscape but Without a doubt its a precious thing I just watched.thank you so much.
"Don't listen to me"
There a hundred thousand of us listening to you brother 💙
Good to see you youth, keep it comin
Even just from the snippets we get to see of your life on youtube, it's been clear that you've been having a great time this year, Hazey. Been lovely to see.
I spent the first 6 months of this year sat inside writing my thesis to finish my PhD, and it sent my noggin well and truly into the shed. Eventually I forced myself to do an hours walk every morning around my local woods before I started working, and honestly that was the one thing that actually helped me finish the damn thing. I know it's a cliche, but that's because it's true: nature really is the great healer. It strips back to bare truths and shows you what you need to be shown. Hope you're feeling better soon and that you enjoyed the snow dahhn saarf :)
You lost yourself and found yourself again. Human AF ❤❤❤
Shout out to nature.
Top bloke thanks for chat I think we all struggle in one way or another keep strong chap
You're doing the right thing by talking, keep it up and do one thing at a time 👍
What a powerful message.... thank you for sharing
Fabulous video Mr Haze. The story about sitting in your van really struck a chord for me, I drove 50 miles to an event this year and couldn't make myself go in to it due to my chronic ADHD. We all love your videos here keep on keeping on. Happy Christmas and an even better 2023.
I feel this, happens to me for the same reason. Stupid ADHD self destruct button.
It has been much , another belter. Standard but very refreshing to watch , but its just cool to see you and say hello back. Your a good un .
@Testme345 Hello Haze, sorry it took me a bit to work out how to tx you. Not great with all this stuff. I hope your well. Thank You Best Wishes Paul
I really needed to watch this today. Thank you so much
Great vid mate, I needed those words after a 💩 time lately. Never underestimate the positive influence you have on others, your videos have inspired so many to get out and enjoy nature including me. Peace and love brother ❤
I started feeling ill around the 5th and honestly its only now that im starting to feel better. It absolutely floored me and being out of routine for 2 solid weeks has been sh*t. Made me realise how important the out of work stuff is....like going to the gym, jogging, walking in the woods, creative projects etc That's what keeps my mind balanced 🧠
Appreciate your videos, they've put a positive spin on many a tough days. 🙏🏻 Make sure you give yourself the time to recover properly, you can't pour from an empty cup. 💚 - Mandy
beautiful vlog hazey i am Asperger dyslexic and add so in a world of pain most days i refuse meds and i am a gardener i can honestly say nature has saved my life as i am full of energy so i can relate and really love what you do thanks a million hazey you light up my day sending you a big hug and keep smiling big man cheers loads russell
Had a mental breakdown today and this has help some what but trying to get out when the weather is a shocker makes it even harder for me. Thanks for that honesty in your videos they really do help me when I can’t get out the house
Much love to you - A lot of the time, things look great from the outside but noone knows what's going on in your head. Definitely good to talk and also to say "It's OK to not be OK".
Hazey mate, bless you for your openness and honesty. I know lots of people (including myself) can relate to what you've said. Keep it coming - but only at your pace. Yer a hero mate.
Much love Hazy, don't feel pressured that "you can't help everyone". It's an impossible task and through your content you are doing more than most of us could hope to do in shedding some light on and making conversations about mental health.
My head was a shed just before lockdown happened, and lockdown maybe helped me mask it a little as it was very easy to literally lock myself away. It took a few years to come back to life and like many people it was the call of the outdoors that woke me back up. I went to a few fells and started to get fitter and eventually went to the North Wales coast for 3 nights in the tent with my lad, I came back completely different and I now get the tent out as much as possible. Everyone has a happy place and the coast is mine, I am hoping to do the camino de santiago next year as a pat on the back to myself for coming back from the edge.
Again, much love mate. Some times it's hard for anyone to take credit, but you deserve lots for your consistent approach to promoting mental health.
Getting out into nature is what allowed me to find your videos and they've given me so much inspiration to go further than I ever intended initially. I'm truly grateful as they've helped me a ton! Merry Christmas mate
Always watching your adventures, and always wondering how you are.
Get well soon my friend, you are an inspiration to so many of us. Keep up the brilliance that you are. You're ace mate.
Love you Paul ❤️
Sending lots of love from across the pond Canada Char and John 🇨🇦
Happy New Year. I wish that 2023 brings you what you need. All the best.
Kick up the arse I needed.. been there for the last year.. you helped at least one person lad, proper inspiration.
Great video Haze outdoors being outdoors gives me peace I'm alone but never lonely nature surrounds us everywhere you look there is life keep up the good work your very inspirational. Regards Richard
A tarn in my perfect world - for Paul.
"There is a tarn in your perfect world, where the wind dances on the branches of the silver birch and creates leopard spots of light across the tarn. The tree you lean against stands tall and proud shading the world beneath you, there will come a day when you rest against its trunk and look over the valley where the sun warms, but never burns. The leaves will turn green, then amber, then crimson, then no leaves at all...But the tree will not die, it is here that you hold dear and take solace in the simple perfection that is nature. When you find yourself alone and frozen in time, just know... you are loved and adored by all".
I can't claim this poem as my own, but taken from a beautiful film. But just know you are much loved and bring so much joy to so many.
