Disclaimer: This is not the official channel of ‘The Word of Wolf’; I have made a separate channel to re-upload some of his videos so that his fans can still watch them. I managed to get a hold of some of his videos after he announced in a live stream that he would soon leave TH-cam. So, I managed to get a hold of as many of his videos as I could before he deleted his original channel and so I do not own any footage or audio recordings in this video. All footage and sound in this video I DO NOT OWN, any song featured being used for entertainment purposes only.
I’m only watching this it’s because depression is the reason why the word of wolf deleted his channel he’s suffering from it
JDogg539 He has a new Channel called Of Writing an Rage.
That’s not his channel I looked it up
JDogg539 Are you Sure? It sounds like him.
it is his channel, he announced it himself on EFAP 59
Danm to bad he deleted his videos on his new channel
This video speaks volumes of how accurate depression actually is for people like me who have depression/anxiety. It really does feel that your mind is constantly after you even if you are having a decent day.
Not gonna lie, I never knew he deleted his channel. I looked him up today thinking "haven't seen any of this guys vids in a while, I wonder how his channel is doing" only to find out a lot has happened, and almost none of it good. I hope he can recover from whatever happened quickly. And while Wolf might not come back to TH-cam, just knowing he might be alright would be all that matters.
i don't know if you've been watching efap in the past year or so, or the 100 episodes special, but the hosts and guests alike have kept touch with him and they say he's been doing great.
I personally don’t have depression, but I’m glad I watched this video.
I miss him so much, this video helped me a lot.
I miss him too. But more I hope for his safety and happiness more than I enjoy his content. Not a day goes by that I don’t hope for the best for him. I have done my best to live by his wisdom and advice and his lessons on storytelling and film. And I intend to continue to do so even if it will take me a long time.
All I can do is hold him dear in my heart for he is an idol of mine, for his intelligence, wisdom, humour, logic, honesty and more than that how he keeps striving to be a better person and keeps fighting even when it’s hard. He’s a better TH-cam channel than most people in mainstream media I watch now. Head and shoulders above most channels I’ve seen in my life who also make reviews and video essays.
I know now that can continue to live for myself with everything I learned from him and knowing that he is alright and doing better brings joy to my heart. I can live for myself and the people I love and I would wish for you all to do the same too. Never look back in sadness, but be at peace with this knowledge my friend. This video has helped me a lot in my life too and I am happy to keep it up for you all and I hope it continues to help anyone who watches this video.
Take care my friend and keep your spirits up. God bless. 😊👍
I really hope Wolf rewatches this
I keep coming back to this video when I’m feeling low, glade you still have the audio
This helped me through some dark times, thank you for re-uploading this
Definitely
To those with the time, look at "Of Writing and Rage." Its wolf and he is going through it again, probably permanently deleting his TH-cam. Brother goes through a lot, so everyone keep him in your thoughts and prayers.(Edit) He has abandoned TH-cam in it's entirety. Still keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
I suffered from depression for 5 years. I still can't for the life of me figure just how i got out of it. Everything i can say to someone with depression is exactly what was said to me by people who didn't really understand. It really is all in your head. And that's the problem, not the solution. You can't escape it because it is in your head. For me it was a big self esteem thing. But through therapy i forgave myself for things i didn't realize my subconsious was making me feel like shit for.
Thank you for saving this one, it means a lot to me: it's one of the things I used to help my father understand what I was going through when I got diagnosed with depression.
I know he won't, but I hope Wolf someday finds this comment and know that he did help.
Came here after seeing the Goodbye video from Wolf.....I really hope his journey continues somewhere better whatever it may be...
I really hear my inner voice resonating with these types of content...Especially with Wolf's works...
May his journey take him to peaceful fields...
Is he...okay? I randomly stumbled upon this video, and dont know anything about him
This is honestly the best explanation of depression that I've heard. I've never been able to put a lot of it into words until now.
Still can't believe it's been 2 years. I still miss him
I should show this to my parents.
Your parents don’t understand Depression?
@@operator7209 No. They say that I would only tell myself to be sad.
@@tentrilliconlp7748 my parents only took my depression/anxiety seriously after a breakdown and quitting a job.
I come back to this video every once in a while when im going through the worst of it. I cant say i feel better after listening to it but i take solace in hearing someone who understands what im going through in the moment. I truely miss Wolf. I hope he is doing ok.
I'm gonna be a sociologist.
Or therapist for this.
Thanks wolf for giving me ideas on how to handle this issue, I will do my best one day after I graduated collage
This video means a lot to me❤
I miss dishonoured wolf's videos so much. Never knew he suffered from depression. Hope you're okay bro.
Love Word of Wolf... I wish he'd come back. Miss him.
My favorite Dishonored wolf video!
I've been to countless therapists, read countless studies and books on the subject to understand myself, and this is still the best description of depression I've ever heard. Especially the bit about your mind turning into a hostile entity hellbent on making you feel like shit. I never see anyone talking about that, yet it's my most invasive symptom.
Thank you for reposting this. With his new channel gone and him seemingly deciding to stay off TH-cam for good this time, really nice to hear his voice and see this Vid again.
I always revisit this when my depression gets worse again. I loved Wolf and he inspired me to what I’m trying to do today. But I also has depression. The way Wolf explains depression really makes me recognize myself in what he says. He doesn’t censor what depression is. He doesn’t sugar coat it. He says exactly how it is and it really makes me feel less alone and like there are people who understand me. Wolf did change much of my life and I’m glad I saw all his videos. It’s sad that he quit TH-cam, but I hope it has helped with his depression
I wish you the best in all your ambitions. Bless you!
Hey Wolf, I just wanted to say thanks for making this video. I've struggled so much with depression for several years. However, this past year ive been happier than ive ever been and the only reason behind that is i started taking a new medication called lamotrigine. Its not an SSRI, its a mood stabilizer, which prevents depressive crashes without the bs side effects that anti-depressants have. It has made a literal day and night difference. I legitimately didnt think it was possible to feel this way again, considering how much i had suffered for so long. I recommended it to a good friend mine who was in the same place for a long time, depressed and trying bunches of different SSRI's with little to no success. Its working tremendously for him as well. If you are open to the idea of trying it I would definitely recommend it. Either way, best of luck to you man, I hope everything works out.
I'm just finding out about Wolf and its breaking my heart. I just hope he can find some peace in this world. Good Luck to you Wolf, just remember, there are people that care. :)
My favorite Wolf video 🙂! Hope he's doing better! His content and opinions always helped me out whenever I felt down. Thanks for reuploading this! Maybe, if he feels better and comfortable, he can return to TH-cam one day as long as it doesn't negatively affect his personal health!
I hope Wolf is ok.
I really hope he is doing well and winning the battle.
Been waiting for this for a long time
Thank you so so soooo much for reuploding this. Best vid on TH-cam.
Even though he doesn't want re uploads. These are for us now. Sorry wolf, but we're not letting go.
I relate to this so much more than I want to, it can Fuck off for days at a time but will always creep back in and make me think about everything possible as a farce. I'm convinced I will be stuck with this for as long as I live which idek how much longer I can last. it's taking everything I got to even wake up and get out of bed. I will think everything horrible in my life was all my fault and that I deserve the pain. my Art is my passion and it's hard to stay motivated when every minor mistake is a huge fuckup, and even then my art is rarely ever happy or bright. because that's where my head is at and have a hard time breaking from it. my Mind literally feels like a parasite keeping me alive barely to feel this way longer. sometimes it feels like screams everywhere then it's gone, then it's the worst sunken feeling ever. it's not like it everyday of the week but when it decides to ruin my life it will feel like forever. I can only imagine what Wolf is feeling now.
I'm glad this video is still up it helps me cope with my depression
We miss you. Stay strong
rip chester bennington ♥️
Has anyone heard from Wolf? I hope he's ok.
Yea he's actually doing pretty well last I heard! About a month ago though.
Well hello How do you know this?
He posted on reddit. It was archived my mauler.
Well he streams now
Thank you wolf missed you and your uploads glad your back and you gave me an insight to this horrible disease you ever need to reach out to anyone I'm here for ya .
It’s a reupload.... sry
Thank you for reuploading this, it is the most accurate description of depression I’ve ever seen. I used to listen to this whenever my depression flared up (so almost every day).
That being said, since Wolf asked for is stuff to be taken down, please delete all the content youve reuploaded
Thanks for this reupload. I needed to see this, and will need to rewatch this a couple of times in the future as well
this speaks too much to me I don't think think there's anything that will end it for as long I live but there's some silver linings that distract me and that's all it feels like finding a distraction and outpacing myself best I can, taking one step forward and taking them all back every single day is exhausting even If I haven't even done much I don't see myself living past 30 at this rate
Please keep this up because he was a good guy
I will keep this one up as I really want people to be aware of depression and maybe it can help people, even if it's only a little bit, I really hope this video helps people struggling. And I hope it will help Wolf maybe he might see this one day hopefully and maybe it may give him a lot of comfort and inspiration for his life and future career he chooses that this has helped people and maybe him too.
@@thehonouredwolfre-uploads4235 I knew wild and I hope for the very same thing, thanks for at least honoring mission in this area for people who watch it
Kinda like romantic relationship, you can't "make" friends. That's something that also happens naturally too.
But don't get it twisted, romance and simple friendship are entirely different. Their similarities show in its comment and the signs that indicate that its true when both recipients garner similar signs of affinity,approval or comfortability for one another. However, in certain romantic relationship one of the subjects may want to come out to the other. This action will open the door to the recipient being ask to whatever "room" they deem appropriate and suitable to the request being relayed. They will then give it time. It might be a quick response or a slow one but at the end it would come out.
For those dealing with suicidal thoughts I always found Lost All Hope to be a very useful site, especially the Your Stories page.
Wait, what happened to Word of the Wolf? I tried to look his channel up but I am getting mixed answers.
He deleted his channel a while back. He created a second channel called Writers of Rage or something and he deleted that one too. He was really depressed and as he put it the internet consumed him.
Who else was here after Wolf deleted his Rage channel?
9:27 All seriousness aside, this is legitimately one of the best insults I have ever heard. This video is great though. Hope he is doing great.
😍😍😍❤️
You know what, fuck it. Wolf might not want to see it but for some odd reason i'm willing to throw this out into the world.
I remember two years from posting I wanted to enlist as college wasn't really going alright. I wasn't able to do what I want, and being in a military family I had service as my plan b.
Got a gym membership during the sign-up process and was getting prepped for when the process finishes.
What I remember most is that about halfway through the process, as I was in the gym there'd always be a voice in the back of my head, self-doubt I suppose. Just doubting my efforts to get fit and prepped for when the word comes back, that it was all for nothing, my effort didn't matter, and it'd be better if i just stopped. Over time the doubt became overpowering, and I did stop. Only to see that I was medically barred from service. Honestly that was the first step among many to a really bad part of life I'm still going through.
How have things been going recently?
I miss him so much! !!!
I finally started up therapy up and they keep asking me a question that I keep answering Andi don't know if I'm the problem or they are. Its a simple question for depression, "Are you planning...?" My answer is always the same "I don't plan anything, that makes it premeditated." I got looks for that one... But I wasn't wrong.
Thanks for this post though. I'm watching it at hopefully the perfect time... Depending on how it ends. It could say Mortal Kombat it instead, but my memory is shit and would have forgotten what I wanted to write, so I chose finish after posting the comment.
Now ill do that.
You are never the problem. They say your mind may be your greatest enemy and it’s okay to not feel okay but you are not the person in the wrong because of what you’re going through. I get that too when someone asks me what my plans are and sometimes I don’t have a concrete answer as I don’t even know yet although over time I’ve been able to routine myself a lot better lately. I hope this video will help you find your way whenever you feel lost and back to a sense of self love as it did me and others.
i just wish wolf comes back.
What was the game he was playing in the original video
Ori and the blind forest... it’s his favorite game ever
@@zachplaysallday-zpad5731 there was another one he was playing had a deferent style
Is there anymore uploads coming?
When I'm in school whenever a movie comes out and kids are talking about it I try not to talk about it at all because like my opinion matters and i fell like i will make the movie become outdated because i talked about it
We aspire the ideal that mental illness is a taboo and should be squashed without really wanting to understand its purpose or causes and effect.
it's fine it was only game play footage anyway
Why did he quit TH-cam? I legit don't know.
he was going through a really depressive state in his life ironically
While no one is aware of the specifics, the abuse he encountered with false accusations on TH-cam and the depression he faces on a daily basis, his TH-cam career seemed to only be causing him great distress.
I wish him only the best and I hope he's feeling much better than when he was on this site.
I still want him to return, but recovery is infinitely more important than new content.
@@UnderwhelmingUnicorn Of Writing and Rage is his new channel
@@blackboard2632 OH JOYOUS DAY!!!! I WILL SUBSCRIBE RIGHT NOW 😃😃😃
@@UnderwhelmingUnicorn Guess that didn't work out.
I know that it was in order to give hope at the end of the talk, but is it bad that I felt his mentioning of avenues for improvement were hollow or were just there for the sake of having something to tip the scales in some way?
I'm ashamed that I couldn't preface this in a more neutral-sounding way. My bad.
Don't feel ashamed it's okay, man. But I do think these tips can help, especially if we put our minds to it, and that goes for me as well as it's something I too struggle with. There is always hope.
@@thehonouredwolfre-uploads4235 Thanks. That does give me some ease for the future. Hope you're doing well.
I think he was having anxiety at 19:06
Andrew yang 2020... You should review his policies
The first thing my sociology professor told me was that this class and its studies is nothing more than science that can be refuted like anything else. Therefore, its something that should never be made law abiding or taken as concrete facts.
So the the beginning of this video cannot be anymore correct.
anywon got a link to his things I dont the video
Can someone link me wolfs new channel?
Of writing and rage
@Snakeye Plissken That's a very odd name for a channel.
@@bilbobaggins5938 it's a reference to the name of a Red album. Unfortunately that channel is coming to an end as well. His stacking anxiety/depression is crippling him and the Internet is a vice that he wants to cut out for good. He'll be appearing on an EFAP sometime soon and it'll be his last appearance online. He's committing to leaving for good this time. He's a great guy who doesn't deserve these demons pushing him down.
I would, but he deleted his videos again.
Ironic
from what i learned he regrets trashing asian tran
It seems to me that all that people(at least those who aren't educated)know about depression is that it makes you feel sad. That's an extremely fucking basic description. To be fair, mental illness is...complicated for those who don't study it. To the uneducated, those with depression will look ungrateful and unsatisfiable, but those with depression DO want to feel happy and satisfied, but sadly they can't. At least not without help. Also, Wolf's description of being an author sounds kind of like the life of H.P Lovecraft. Sorry if this is disjointed, I'm drunk right now.
Owl City's music is better than antidepressants... ;-)
