3 Years ago I stopped uploading to TH-cam and working as a Filmmaker/Photographer because I experienced severe Panic Attacks, Depression and Anxiety which completely took over my reality. Most of you didn't know why I left. After the hardest time of my life as a Creator and as a human being I wanted to create this Video to share my journey and speak out about the "other side" of Social Media and what was going on so maybe it helps someone out there who struggles in life the way I did. I need to re-enter life - And this is my close on this chapter of my life.

*"Slowly, doing some baby steps day by day, but I got better"*
That's deep dude, fr.
People who don't understand your silence will never understand your words. For the rest this video is premium! ❤
better said than I could! thanks Ludwig
This is accurate and it depicts what I've been through with crippling anxiety.
I’m a psychologist and I deeply appreciated what you just did. Thanks for everyone out there
You ok? He was healthy and have good life, those advices are just distracting and shaming him for no reason at all.
so good to see you back creating man. this is incredible, thank you for opening up
this inspire me so much
Can’t believe how much I relate to this video . I’m so happy you feeling better ❤
I went through a funk in my mid 30's, when my son was 3 or 4. It lasted about 9 months. I had extreme anxiety. I became extremely afraid of dying. Sleep was my escape. The thing that got me out of it, was listening to alot of music that my parents listened to when I was a child. It helped me distract my mind. I was able to snap out of it. I'm actually the complete opposite now. When I get bad heartburn, sometimes I think, if this is it, I've had a decent life.
I totally get your video... Been trying to recover from childhood trauma for almost a year now (tried meds, ect and ketamine - no improvement). Psychedelics showed me my childhood pain and trauma and root cause of my problems. Been doing IFS therapy on weekly basis, read dozens of books on PTSD/CPTSD, trauma, IFS, and lately on forgiveness (but that's tough one right now). Lifestyle: exercise almost daily, no caffeine in the afternoon, low sugar/fat/salt diet, good morning/evening routine, deleted Facebook/Twitter/Instagram, journalling, cold showers, low pressure job close to where I live, generally speaking managing stress better. Yet still, "I am not over the hill"... Getting there slowly...
You're absolutely right: it's the society/culture we've been living in that can shape us. Gabor Mate's upcoming book: The Myth of Normal :Trauma, Illness & Healing in a Toxic Culture should explain that very well.
Great to have you back man. sorry to hear about the mental struggle you’ve been through. Wishing you the best, amazing video 🙏
Great Fan of BENN TK... A viewer from ANDAMAN ISLANDS INDIA... we could provide you free accommodation at my Tourist homestay and travel guides from my side guaranteed. 🤝
You just pretty much described myself. Ptsd, anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, adulthood trauma, isolation from people, not wanting to be around anyone, but to wanting to be alone, feeling unwanted and unappreciated, abandoned, cant sleep, nightmares, problems with eating, cant work, cant function. Im seeing a therapist but its not helping. Ive just made an appointment to see a second therapist.
Mental health is a real thing and is so important to take care of it. Sometimes we hit the rock bottom and is important to recognize it and work on yourself. If you are passing through a difficult time… you are not alone 💚🌻
Man this had me in tears, because it resonates so much. I've been battling with burnout for quite some time now. Sometimes I'm alright, and other times even the littlest of things can set me back big time. Having this idea that there is no time to think, and just be present. Everything around us goes by so fast and we feel this constant need of need of needing to excell and be the most productive as we can, but at what cost. I've started to see a therapist as well, and i must honestly say that it helps to just talk about whats going through you. Still in the beginning I feel of this recovery journey, but I honestly want to say thank you for this video and opening up
We are not alone man, we need to talk about these things more often and more naturally. Incredible video dude.
This really helps me vocalize my current place in life. It’s so difficult to explain, even to yourself, what you’re going through. Thank you for making this.
Respect for opening up so deeply!
This is such a good eye opening video. It highlights so many aspects that can affect ourselves. So glad you’re doing better, you are right about the baby steps thing. I get how you feel with being stuck in flight or fight mode 24/7, shit is so hard. But you are right about changing the diet can help, meditation helps, grounding techniques help, and just trying to be kind to myself. Thank you so much for the amazing video.
Yay, comeback of the colour grading master! I hope your mental health will be in the best condition possible, take care
Du bist einfach ein einzigartiger und faszinierender Mensch Christian. Ich freue mich auf jedes neue Video. Danke!
So stark man !
Nicht das Video und grading. Also das natürlich auch wie immer schon.
Doch wie du über alles gesprochen hast!
Und mentale Gesundheit ist aktuell wichtiger als jemals zu vor…
Ich hoffe das mehr Menschen dafür sensibilisiert werden!
Weiß garnicht was ich sagen soll
Ganz viele Gedanken in meinem Kopf!
Und einige Flashbacks von meiner Vergangenheit!
Ich drücke dir die Daumen das es für dich weiter bergauf geht 🙏🏻
Danke Daniel, bedeutet mir viel!
Oh man - that resonates so deeply! Irgendwie wusste ich in den letzten 2 Jahren, dass du mit deinem eigenem Zeug beschäftigt warst und Zeit für dich und deine Themen brauchtest. Kudos dafür, das alles hier auszurollen. Sending good vibes your way 🌈 Keep climbing
Danke Andreas!
@@cmg I have been through this hell & it was the heliest hell, I lost my Own self who I was in the deepest depression, Panic attacks, restlessness, Flight to fight mode 24x7 from 2020 October till august 2022, but I kept going through the hell by still making video, Outside no one have any idea what I going through but inside it was constant battle! I am a lot better now then before but one thing I discovered about this Is “You are not your mind” When you watch your own thoughts you become the witness & The one who witnesses its own thoughts are separate!! So your true self are current current consciousness, And yes when you accept your self then mind & it’s thoughts will fade away as it was never You…
I’m so excited to see you back on TH-cam! Anything you create people are grateful for. Enjoying it is most important so do what feels best for you and create what you want to create🙌🏽 Its always awesome mate🙏🏾
This video is an example of a strong man. Wish a lot of people see this video..
Loved your video. I’ve struggled with mental health issues for my whole life and I was always scared of being stigmatized so I suffered in silence for a long time. We need to talk about this more because it can save lives. Thanks for doing this video. Hope you’re in a much better place now.
It’s crazy how so many creative individuals felt this exact crests and troughs in the past couple of years. Toxic people out, more intuitive, listening to your inner child in. Take care brother, good to see you again, keep on climbing, we are all with you. ❤
Glad you safe and healing and getting better every day, buddy. you are extremely incredible but more then that, you are Christian, and is amazing to see you getting back to your identity. God Bless you, mate! always following you here and praying for your live.
I feel this emotionally it almost tells a story of my self which I can relate to so much ….but picking up the camera and creating saved me gave me purpose and motivation & inspiration from a black hole that was becoming life threatening. I truly believe there’s always a way out but the biggest problem is finding the way out …Thankyou for sharing the story!!
This is a powerful video without a doubt. I've never watched your channel before, but I have gone through this same thing over the last year or so and it's been the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. Feeling like I could just drop dead at any moment, not finding joy in the things I used to be so passionate about, feeling hopelessly unable to get better, and on the verge of turning 30 without much to show for myself as I slowly lose my grip on reality. Some days I feel okay and others I can barely get myself out of bed but I'm still here and I'm still fighting every day to pull myself out of this. I surround myself with the people I love, I go to therapy twice a week, I try to get myself to enjoy the things I used to love so much even if just for a split second. It's still the hardest thing I've ever dealt with, but I do hope it gets easier soon. One thing that has helped me greatly the last few months has been talking to others with similar experiences and realizing that I'm not alone in feeling this way, so thank you so much for sharing this with the world. I'm sure it wasn't easy but it will mean a lot to those of us battling the same thing.
You have no idea how much this rings true with me. I have watched your videos for so long and find such comfort in them and now this video hit me hard. I too am struggling hard and have extreme and overwhelming anxiety and panic attacks that seem to have come out of nowhere. My physical health feels like I'm constantly dying and my mind feels like it's going to give up but just hearing your story gives me hope and strength to push forward and take time for me and help myself instead of constantly worrying. Your an inspiration in so many ways. I hope your feeling better now and when you do feel down or have a crappy day you can look back and see how strong you are and how your strength can and will inspire others to reach out and get the help they need and deserve ❤️
You have inspired so many of us to Create. Glad to have you here still man.
One thing about mental health is you are absolutely in it on your own. No one understands and although people say they care they don't give actually give a shit. Ultimately your in it alone and you have to find your own way out. Or maybe that's just me. My trigger is winter and I have to try really hard this year to not go downhill like I did in 2020 and 2021.
I've been following your channel for a long time. I was wondering what happened. I am glad that you are coming back to the living and I wish you all the best ❤ Do what you love!
Much love!
This video popped up at the right time, in the mist of me going through my own perils. You can't explain or pinpoint exactly what's going on with you, searching your own mind for answers but you come up with so many which ends up adding to your stress. Yes, I'm seeking therapy and wanting to deal with whatever is causing the waves in my troubled seas. Thank you for sharing your story as more needs to see/hear it. So I'll continue walking this bumpy road knowing that it will lead to my self discovery and healing. Sending love and hugs to those that feel alone cause you are not, we are all in this together. ❤
Thank you for opening up. This means a lot to so many of us that are going through similar things in our society. Inspiration ❤
One day at a time, my friend. Most days are hard, but the few good ones remind me of what I'm fighting for. Self-Love!❤
Dude, I could not relate to this more. The last couple years I have gone through basically the same experience. This video is nothing short of amazing and props to you for making this. Very inspiring man. Keep up the positivity.
I am crying so hard watching this 😭 .
You know what's crazy Christian, how you just put everything I'm experiencing in a beautiful video and describing it in the most accurate way possible, thank you dude. The part where you said youre easily addicted on stuff, overachieving and all that. Cant thank you more for the inspiration over the last few years. Things will work out and Im wishing you all the best from Malaysia man! Thanks for reminding that everyone is human and not everything is gonna be perfect.
All of the thoughts that I've been having. Thanks for bringing it to light brother!
I'm not going to tell you that I'm happy to see you back on youtube, I'm happy to seeing again the face that I started watching 5 years ago creating with his sony a6300. I feel you so much and I'm wishing all of this that you talk in the video to become a memory really soon for you. A bad memory. Be well and take care of yourself friend.
Deine Ehrlichkeit ist bewundernswert! Ich wünsche dir alles Gute! Nimm dir all die Zeit, die du brauchst!
It’s comforting to see you are not alone in the struggle. We all have to find our way to find peace. Thank you brother
Amazing, amazing human being. You are just awesome. Don't give up, follow your path... you are on it right now!
I've beed there. Hardest lesson of my life. Glad to see you moving forward!
I absolutely loved the message you shared and the artistic value of this film overall! Loved the German phrase you threw in as well. SUBSCRIBED!
Christian, this was moving. I struggle with MDD, and although I haven't fully scaled the peak, its important to celebrate those small wins and focus on what makes you happy in the moment. Such a beautiful story you told, thank you.
Christian, ich wünsche Dir nur das Beste ! Ich verfolge deinen Kanal seit Anbeginn, habe durch dich und mit dir meine ersten Schritte mit meiner Kamera gemacht. Danke dafür!
Ich denke du hast das Herz am rechten Fleck, alles Gute für Dich !
This hit deep.❤ happy to see you back!
Yes. Being a creative - on demand. All creative. All the time. The higher the high, the downside, the come down, yeah. COVID didn't help not being able to film, stuck in a box. Glad I made it through. Glad I too am on the other side. First short I ever saw of you. Glad I saw this.
been there at your age, totally understand. I'm sure looking at your eyes now (i remember you in your video few years ago) that you reached another level of awareness and i'm happy for you and your life. we're growing each minute, suffering and been full of joy, it's our life. take care Christian
Huge respect for that short film. Sharing your story + the craftmanship 10/10.
Glad to see your face and lot of strength for the recovery. It is sometimes very hard to give yourself a time off from everything with this fast phase world.
Man.. I see myself in every words you say. I’m in the same situation since 3/4 years. And even if I think once you go in this situation there is no escape ( but hope for it ), you see life from another point of view. Yeah that’s hard everyday, every f* day is worst, or not, but you beginning think about yourself, a bit. I don’t have exact words to put on this mental health breakdown but, watching your video help me to see I’m not the only one in this case, and that’s mean a lot for me. Even my closest friends or family don’t understand this. Thanks again for your video, hope you are good today, and tomorrow, and the rest of your life.
You just put into words what a lot of us are thinking and feeling. Welcome to the other side :)
I don't know about you full story but by only looking at your face and voice i can tell that u have gone through alot , i just wana say never give up buddy , u r soo Tallented , we need people like you in this world , so be happy man. We'll always be with you!
Please do not delete your old videos. I used to have some that "got me out of the sh-t" (a Hungarian term for getting better), but I can't find them online anymore.
It's your videos that help a lot. Thanks for being on TH-cam for us. Take care. :)
Bro, you are the greatest. Let no one tell you otherwise, you,ve inspired me and many others on how to do content. Glad you are back man, mad respect from Kenya.
Thanks for staying around
In the end we are all just human. And being human equals failing, hurting, struggling, coping, surviving. Good to hear you are on your way towards something better.
be grateful and feel enough it will make you better
because the more you chase him the more he runs
I understand you perfectly; I am chronically depressed and hyper anxious, so I understand perfectly.
Wow, brilliant. This video should win a documentary award just for the brutal honesty and deep dive into reality without the glorification of success. Bravo. 💯🙏🏻
Good to see you back! I can relate to every word you said in the video. I’ve been and still going through this …. I had to question and change almost everything in my life. And nobody seems to understand what’s wrong with me no matter how hard I try to explain that my body is “failing” me for “no reason”. It’s been almost four years now, and it gets better ✌️
Remember that you’re not alone in this. And I wish you to get through 🙌
Thank you, it really touched me... appreciate your honesty very much!
I am going through same phase of my life right now & i hope it will be better every day as you said. Never giving up hope
People who don’t go through it never really understand, speaking from experience. Thank you for sharing this and coming back to this space 🙏🏼
Ich glaube du sprichst vielen aus der Seele mit einem Thema, das oft noch als Tabu gilt.
Wie immer ein krasses Video nebenbei :) weiterhin viel Kraft!
Thank you for this short film. Thank you for speaking up about this chaos and pain.
So viele wahre Worte. Und das wichtigste, "To be more grateful about what's already there instead of chasing more". Social Media legt eine Geschwindigkeit vor, mit der niemand mithalten kann, wenn man nicht sein eigenes, gesundes Tempo findet. Alles Gute für die Zukunft, starkes Video!
"Sir, how do I colorgrade?" made me burst out :D.
Important message and I can imagine that you made this also as a reminder for yourself. Sometimes, reaching out to "the closest people" is the hardest.
Christian, you don't know how powerful you're, I just saw 2 videos of you and now I have an idol, thank you for sharing all these, I truly believe that when we get this state of mental health we're not gonna be the same anymore but we have to give our best no matter what. No problem is bigger than us.
I'm so happy to hear from you again. I've been anxiously waiting to see you post again. Peace and light!
thank you for this man... happy to here you back we are ready to see you
Bist nachwievor der grund warum ich mir damals eine Kamera gekauft habe und hast somit dazu beigetragen das ich meine größte passion gefunden habe.
Ich hoffe nur das beste für deine Zukunft. Alles gute 🙏🏼
Happy you’re feeling batter. Looking after yourself is always the priority. Take care and be well.
You should be proud that you inspired so many of us on that path of art of creating, you got solid skills, solid mentality, dont let the bullshit eat you for nothing. Keep strong mate, much love.
Surround your self with people who truly care about you. Most stress comes from toxic people that want to drag you down. I find being around things I love and care for bring much more joy to my life. Wishing you all the best my brother
Mental health is tough and the best thing is to talk about it. Hardest thing yet also the best thing to do. This movie hit home and filled the gaps when you were not speaking. Stay strong!!!!
thanks this video was like a therapy for me so inspiring so motivating
My dude. I'm right there with you. Anxiety is the worst feeling and something I would never want to feel again. Just hope you are better man
You’re an incredible person. Your beautiful soul comes through in everything you do. I’m so glad to hear of your recovery process and I hope you find wonderful people along the way to help you through it.
Great message. Like you said, if it only helps one person, then it was worth it. We are all in this thing called life together. Peace.
It's hard to believe that one day all this will pass. The abyss seems to be infinite, and something is behind us all the time, but at the same time we never fall into the abyss. With this work of art, we understand that we are not alone in the process, and that we have to be strong and have patience in facing this storm. Thank you, very nice to watch.
Christian, danke! Stay strong and clear minded 💪
thank you for uploading this video. i was going through a lot of shit. i wasn’t able to take with any of my friends. i just sit there and listen to them for the past 3 years. now things have started to change. i need to be strong in my life.
Uff... Ich bin etwas sprachlos und hab ne Träne in den Augen. Was eine Seltenheit bei mir ist. Ich bin gefühlt derzeit an dem Punkt, an dem du vor 2 Jahren warst. Depressionen, Ängste, Panikattacken. Einfach kein Bock mehr aufs Leben. Naja... Stress. Du sagst es. Und genau deswegen habe ich jetzt auch mein Leben in die Hand genommen und werde was verändern. Lange Rede kurzer Sinn... Danke für dein Video. Danke für deine Offenheit. Deine Message ist so wichtig und erreicht hoffentlich viele Menschen.
Danke dafür Christian!
Danke Leila, wünsche dir alles Gute auf deinem Weg...es kommen bessere Tage!
You’re not alone, thanks for sharing. I can totally relate, the anxiety, back pains, stress, over thinking, I’m worrying so much, but being grateful for what we already have helps a lot
Thank you for making this, Christian. Your words struck close to home. We're glad to have you back on TH-cam ❤
You are a lion my friend and you have already overcome this phase.
You are one of my references.
Stay strong.
A hug from my friend from Brazil.
Wenn Körper und Geist nicht mehr Hand in Hand gehen lernt man die wesentlichen Dinge im Leben zu schätzen. Ich habe genau Deinen Weg auf dem Du bist schon beschritten und Danke Dir für die Erinnerung und Warnung besser auf mich aufzupassen. Danke und alles Gute! Die Zeit heilt alle Wunden!
geniales Video und schön, dass du darüber so offen reden kannst! Wünsch dir alles Gute ey 🙏
It’s the pain of being reborn into a stronger, wiser and better version of yourself! Thank you for sharing buddy and welcome back!
Tears, Because I can connect, YOU ARE NOT ALONE 💗
sending love brother.silence is what breaks a man down. you are not alone in this path. we all walk together.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings wholeheartedly .
Honestyl, I'm glad ur doing better. You are by far the most inspiring creator to me.
Brother i felt u so damn much and i know this is so hard to speak about but this video is one of the best ones i ever saw. Stay strong and i hope u passed these difficult days.
Welcome back Christian, it's so good to see you back.
Thank you for sharing this, I’m glad I heard this. It was needed.
I needed this video today. I respect the hell out of you as a human being and an artist. Thanks for sharing.
I cried and I never cry, thank you so fucking much for that video Christian. I myself have been going through similar mental health struggles and this video is really eye opening and inspired me a lot. Thank you for sharing your story and for showing that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I will defintly watch it a couple more times.
This was the video I needed to see today. I cried while watching cause I resonated a lot with your struggles. I not only got depressed during 2020, but I also developed social anxiety during that time. For a while even doing groceries was a battle for me, I didn’t want to leave home. Even my productivity for my video production business dropped. I didn’t want to edit anything anymore. People telling me to post my shit, in my head i would also tell them to fuck off. Now with the support of my wife, doing therapy, & opening conversations about my struggles to friends has helped me so much. I’ve even had people tell me lately how much more lively & talkative I am now.
thank you for posting this. I hope this video reaches more people who need to see this. Take care!
Putting aside how Incredible this film is put together, your message is very resonating and poignant. Amazing Christian. ✊
