I have Bipolar disorder and I tried to commit suicide a few times over one time foreal hard, n i got put into a psych ward for a while aftee 1 legit attempt. Mental health and depression especially is a very serious matter and alot of people dont take it seriously...... Myself and so many millions of people out there struggle with it everyday, and unfortunately many dont handle it and do end their lives....im 38 and everyday I feel like could be my last bcuz of this illness This song like instantly first time I heard become my number 1 song from Nickelback. I listen to it all the time, it just hits home so hard.
This was the song that saved my life several years ago when I thought I had no place left in this world. It's always going to have a place in my heart 'til the very end. We're not alone 🖤
..I remember being 15 years old, sitting curled up in the floor of my dark room, the only light in the room coming from the street light outside my window and the computer screen. This song on repeat, me crying and clenching my razor blade so hard.. This was one of my lullabies that I would listen to to bring me back down, and as dark as that night was, I'm still here fighting....
This song will always be special ... because this song was played at my friend's daughter's funeral .... I have tears in my eyes, I remember that day well enough
This song hit me especially hard when I first saw it (and almost every time since) because I almost lost my son when he was born. For the first 24 hours the doctors couldn't say if he would make it. Now the little punk is 14 and I'm so thankful for him!
This song really touched something in me. I kinda forgot that nickelback have some really beautiful lyrics such as these! This week i finished my thesis about "understanding suicidal tendencies at young ages and how to provide helpful accompaniment". A few days after i finished, one evening i got a phone call from a friend who knew about my thesis. She was working at a youth gathering and a girl from there just received a suicide note via text. She called because she didnt know what to do. Together, we tried to talk to the girl and when she didnt answer the phone, we had to alert the police and the parents. And after the police was called, the fear of her dying kicked in because we couldnt do anything. Fortunately she was found before she could commit suicide. That story really showed me how important it is to understand suicidal people. Im so glad we managed to prevent the suicide but on the other hand, i hope that girl gets the treatment she needs to improve her situation, whatever that may be.
Having come back from the brink of suicide, this song is a lifesaver. Keep spreading the love, support, and be comfortable having uncomfortable conversations. You are loved, You are cared for, You are priceless, and You matter!
It is awesome that you were finally able to upload this. Didn't think YT would let you. Thanks for reacting to this. I have 4 children. This song impacts pretty hard. The part with the cell phone dropping from his pocket is the best part when he shows it to his son.
Being alone is a choice. We all get rejected. We all get betrayed. We all get hurt. We just learn to let those people go and hold out for the ones that will show us love and compassion. They are there! There's a whole community here that will love and accept you!
Still love this track!! I have chronic depression and have tried to...ya know, multiple times when I was younger. But this song really helps. And songs like this. I'm glad you're still here! Keep going!
I love that I stumble on your channel because a year ago I tried to take my life but with therapy and love from my family and friends I'm turning my life around
This song always gets me man. Especially the video. I temporarily lost my wife and first son during birth. It was one of the most horrific things I've ever experianced.
Such a good song. Always reminds me of the film Jack & Sarah with Richard E Grant as the lead actor. (Also Samantha Mathis, Judy Dench and Ian McKellen.)
I LOVE Nickelback!!! First time I heard this song I thought it was SO amazing!!!! I saw the music video for the first time and I damn near bawled my eyes out!!! Watching your reaction brought up all those feelings again! And I totally remember Chad saying that they filmed one version of this video and it didn't hit him hard enough, so he made them go back and reshoot the video....
I was watching this video, and deep inside it truly connected with me because I'm 25 and I lost my father when I was young, and you so deserve a subscribe from me. You just brightened my day, so I personally thank you so much for that. Losing someone close to me has had me on a downwards spiral of constant depression and fear of losing my mom. So again, thank you for doing the reaction to such an emotional song.
I requested this song on one of your other videos. Sorry this is my 2nd day with your channel. Going through all your videos as fast as i can. Nice to know someone really cares about others
Loved your reaction so amazing and well done I know how hard it is to listen to songs like this, I love Nickelback and this is one of my all time favourite songs. Iv been there iv had depression 2 times and almost taken my life many times but I’much better now because of my wife she saved my life. But now my two teenage sons are going through depression and it’s hard as a father to watch your kids go through it when you have been through it. I’d love to follow you on Twitter or Facebook because I love to support anyone who has been were you are.
I am mentalamanda on both. My Patreon is amandawebsterhealth. All of my pledges go toward my mental health outreach. I think that your son has a wonderful opportunity that many struggling don't have: a loved one who gets it. He is very lucky!
I think you should listen to Gotta Be Somebody by Nickelback it’s a fantastic song, based on there’s someone watching over you always and being there for you it’s one of my favourites next to lullaby.
I really wish I would've found this channel when I was being bullied throughout school and at the point of being suicidal, but I'm also glad I've found it now, as it's another resource when the dark thoughts start flowing in. I hope you get the healing you need from the things in your past, and continue to be a light out of the darkness for people who need it.
@@MentalAmanda I am. I still have my days but I have my sister, my bff and her family to talk to. They help me when I need it. I haven't tried cutting again since then. I'm more happier than I ever was 4 years ago.
I have very bad anxiety disorder and depression this song helps me so much with my depression and helps me so much, I tried committing it, but this song stopped me from doing so
This is an amazing song with a powerful message, it has helped me and I have sent it to my daughter when she was feeling down, and not sure how to get my feeling across. You should also try perfect by simple plan
I don't suffer with Mental health or anything thankfully but Nickelback make me smile...not into rock at all but they are something else 🇬🇧🇪🇺 to anyone with mental health stay strong 🇬🇧🇪🇺
I appreciate you and your channel. I have been the strong one over the last several months being there for everyone I care about going through their own challenges in life, but unfortunately none of them are there as I fight through things hitting me really hard right now. My support net is not there, so I am searching for something to help keep me charging forward right now.
I'm a new subscriber after watching this. Since I am new, I'm not sure if this would be appropriate, but, "Three Days Grace - Never Too Late" is a song I've always appreciated.
"The way I see it, there's two types of people... There are the ones who spend their lives trying to build a future and thoes who spend their lives trying to rebuild the past. For too long I've been stuck in the middle... - Max Payne - (2012)
When my 3rd son was born everything went wrong my wife was whisked away to surgery and my son to the NICU. A nurse appeared while I was still standing in the birthing room, she silently took my hand leaving my wifes rings in my hand, turned and strode away as I hit the floor among the debris. All three of my sons are grown and doing well yet still inside I'm laying there alone and shattered on the floor, this video kills me and still every one more day I try.
I'm sorry that you didn't get support during such a difficult time. I hope that you can find the strength that your wife's love gave you. I hope you can find ways to share her wisdom with the world. Please feel free to share your favorite memories of her here so we can help keep her spirit alive. 💖
So I’m back to explain what the song is about, the song is clearly about suicide. From the beginning, "Out on a ledge" and "cutting yourself" are both forms of suicide. "Out of the Darkness" and "Into the Light" are both Suicide Prevention programs/groups. "I'm scared as hell 'cause I can't get you on the telephone" is not a feeling that I would wish on anyone. When you know your family member is suffering from depression, they feel hurt and alone. When they take off somewhere - and they don't answer their phone, this feeling is scary as hell. LYRICS - I know the feeling Of finding yourself stuck out on the ledge And there ain't no healing From cuttin' yourself with the jagged edge I'm tellin' you that it's never that bad And take it from someone who's been where you’re at You're laid out on the floor and you're not sure You can take this anymore So just give it one more try With a lullaby And turn this up on the radio If you can hear me now I'm reachin' out to let you know That you're not alone And you can't tell, I'm scared as hell 'Cause I can't get you on the telephone So just close your eyes Well honey here comes a lullaby Your very own lullaby Please let me take you Out of the darkness and into the light 'Cause I have faith in you That you're gonna make it through another night Stop thinkin' about the easy way out There's no need to go and blow the candle out Because you're not done, you're far too young And the best is yet to come So just give it one more try With a lullaby And turn this up on the radio If you can hear me now I'm reachin' out to let you know That you're not alone And you can't tell, I'm scared as hell 'Cause I can't get you on the telephone So just close your eyes Well honey here comes a lullaby Your very own lullaby Well everybody's hit the bottom And everybody's been forgotten Well everybody's tired of being alone Yeah everybody's been abandoned And left a little empty handed So if you're out there barely hangin', on Just give it one more try With a lullaby And turn this up on the radio If you can hear me now I'm reachin' out to let you know That you're not alone And you can't tell, I'm scared as hell 'Cause I can't get you on the telephone So just close your eyes Well honey here comes a lullaby Your very own lullaby Well honey here comes a lullaby Your very own lullaby
Only dead fish go with the flow....that's a good one. When someone tells you that you are not good enough, it means they are not good enough, they are insecure and willing to hurt you to make themselves feel better. Amanda you are a God send to people. No matter if you're a believer or not. You are on your path as you should be. The hardest part to understand is why you have to do things and have certain struggles to get to where you're supposed to be. I think you have arrived Amanda.
May I suggest you react to Guy Sebastin "Standing with you". This song fits your message beautifully. Keep fighting and sharing your message, it makes a difference.❤
On my journey the only one telling me i'm worthless is my self. I still have not forgiven myself for my wife and son's death, Not sure when or if I will be able to but I have a young son that I have to be here for. My battles are every day and night fight to get out of bed, fight to do cleaning, and everything, nighttime I get hit the nightmares. I just don't know.
I have some requests if you take any Amanda Where’d you go -fort minor One more light LIVE 2017 -Linkin park Crawling live 2017 -by Linkin park as well I think that one more light live and crawling life by LINKIN PARK got me crying or almost. If you can react to any of those when you have the time I would highly suggested especially one more light and crawling by LINKIN PARK both live from 2017 of course. I think those were from the last show before a week or 2 before his untimely death. If those songs don’t get you emotional I don’t know what well. Oh and breaking the habit live 2017 same show
The last time I tried to kill myself it felt like an ocean crashing into me wave after wave and really did hear a gut wrenching scream from deep within myself for all the pain to just end, it scared me. I'm so glad I didn't and you if anyone feels that open up ask for help, hell find me on FB I'll message back you are worth the fight to make it through another night another day.
Oh, and another reaction suggestion, if you're open to it: "S.O.S. (Anything But Love)" by Apocalyptica, featuring Cristina Scabbia. It's written from the perspective of someone stuck in a toxic/abusive relationship. Really powerful.
I never heard or saw the video before but before mom gave birth I had a feeling the baby would be born and the mother would die and he would bond with his newborn and not give him up for adoption. He chose to take on the hardest job you'll ever have - being a parent.
People like u are powerful and inspirational. U have no idea how important u are and how many people u stopped from taking their own life just by speaking out. What u are saying is u arent alone in this....u arent just a dot in this world. Do u know what the difference between being lost and being found? Its taking 1 step forward when u feel like all hope is lost.
I would highly recommend doing a reaction to any of their following songs. After the Rain, Far Away, Someday, If Everyone Cared, If Today Was Your Last Day. And I have included a link for - Never Gonna Be Alone th-cam.com/video/Nt2kM0TsubU/w-d-xo.html
this song has gotten me through so much, I’m 14 years old and tbh struggle sm w my mental health. I’ve had 4 suicide attempts and this song has just helped so much in all honesty. I feel like I’m understood iykwim? Like I’m not alone. Idk if that makes sense, I’m kind of a loser☠️
Please react to Guy Sebastian “Standing with you”. This song should be the anthem for all people who support mental health sufferers. I’m a survivor of a suicide attempt, live with depression, and ptsd. I’m a serving firefighter and I’m doing ok for now. One day at a time right.
@@MentalAmanda thank you. I’m trying to get other men and women in my profession talking about their mental health, but it’s an uphill battle. Talking helped me acknowledge my position, and I now understand the triggers, recognise the onset, and have good coping strategies in place…. My dogs. Without them I’d almost certainly have tried again. I don’t belong here and struggle to find joy in most things but my dogs keep me going. Wish I could be happy and enjoy my successes but I just can’t. I know I don’t want to go, but I also know it’ll be a relief when I do. Every day I find a reason to stay and it comes in the form of my dogs. 2009 my crisis started, 2022 still here. I’m winning
@@adamcoope8726 You absolutely belong here just like the rest of us who struggle. The best way to get others to open up is to keep doing so yourself. Gives your pups cuddles for me! 💖 You'll keep winning!
I love Lullaby. But you have to react to the Citizen Soldiers "This Is Your Sign" 💙; . This one is the song for everyone with suicidal thoughts and depression. It's a lifesaver ! 🙏
You know I was just scrolling thru NB reactions cause I'm a huge fan and like to see how others react albeit all the undeserving hate they recieve.... And coming across this channel honestly a godsend... I've been struggling with mental health my whole life... Years of misdiagnosis and medication shoved down my throat that only made my mind and body worse..... And now going throughthe extreme hardship of being forced away from my partner (who now has to fight dhhs corruption to save our daughter from foster system abuse by herself) and my child... Being homeless in a state away when I have an apartment... Just be,cause if I didn't leave we would've lost her.... The constant discrimination was so abusing... Apparently I'm inherently violent because I am autistic..... Sometimes RN honestly I really don't know how much longer I can stand this shit.... I'd know much patience I have left with life.... I'm trying to hold on to the hope that we will be get back and be a family finally.....(cause they took her from hospital when she was only 3 days old) but every day it seems that possibility gets slimmer and slimmer.... I might lose them both.... And I just know that I can't and won't be able to live with that... The state broke my family and my soul... I'm suffering alone, and idk what to do anymore honestly... They were gonna arrest her for a flashback dude..... I couldn't let that happen... And since hey don't care about mental health.... I had to lie and take the fall for something that wasn't even in her control.... I sacrificed myself for the good of the family and my daughters safety... And we still might get fucked... In this world it seems no good Deed goes unpunished... I just can't handle that kind of stress anymore... Idk if I can hold on much longer... This song saved my life once... But I feel like it'll take a real miracle (not a lullaby this time) to piece my life back together... If my family doesn't reunite forget about it.... My life ends there... I'm just trying to figure out how to try and prepare myself... He out of this rut... And prepare a new home for my family if we can reunite... I just don't know if it will happen... And there's no moving on for me if it doesn't... They are my whole world... The only family I've ever had that truly loves me..I have my whole life invested in them... And I don't want anything or anyone else..... I can't live without them... Which is what's making it hard for me to make any headway on my situation now... I'm trying... Accomplished some things... But idk... Its still one step forward two steps back it feels like, and I want to keep fighting for them and me.... I just have almost nothing left and no options no help...... And I just don't fucking know what to do rn.... I'm just lost
You didn't deserve the judgment and treatment that you received. There are plenty of functional and happy people who are on the spectrum, I know many personally. I can also understand how difficult it is when family dynamics shift, whether by death, divorce or other factors. I always swore I'd never survive losing my parents. I fell into a deep, dark hole. But I did find my way out. It took a while! You're not alone. We are here.
Thanks for reacting to this song. It’s been a favourite of mine for a long time. Nickelback is definitely misunderstood and some of their less well known songs have a surprising amount of wisdom and care behind them. If you’re not averse to listening to a Christian band, You Are More by Tenth Avenue North was a song that made a huge impact on my mental health in my lowest and darkest hour. The video is also awesome: th-cam.com/video/qlnEtGh3QXE/w-d-xo.html
I guess it's popular to hate Nickelback or something. I don't understand it either. Anyways, there's a song from them to check out. Too Bad, it's a subject I know a thing or two about. Nickelback - Too Bad [OFFICIAL VIDEO] / Roadrunner Records th-cam.com/video/37zAeB_x2EM/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for your sincere and emotional reaction to this beautiful song. Please react to “Scalpel” from Alice In Chains. That song is currently getting me through a really tough time right now. If no reaction, just listen to it.
Trigger Warning My mom found me hanging one night a year ago. If she hadn't done so a few minutes later I'd have permanent brain damage. I'd already been cutting before that night. This was one of the songs that saved me.
it's funny, when you understand why this song was highly requested, before she even starts the video oh! and I won't be, ''making sweet, sweet love'' to that subscribe button - I won't be able to see the screen, afterward
While this song means a lot to me, I'll have to say the one song that stopped me from taking my own life was "She's not Crying anymore" by Billy Ray Cyrus. At 13 a 37 year old man took my innocence and raped me. No one believed me and the person (a family member) who had been trusted with my care beat me, invited her friends including my rapist to beat my bare buttocks with a belt and buckle until I had cuts, and welts, scars from which I still have scars. They took everything from the basement I had to sleep in, leaving an alarm clock. During the day I was made to be their servant, so I snuck a knife in my shoe one night, I planned to take my own life I even knew which way to cut my wrists to ensure that by the time I was found I'd be dead. She only left me an alarm clock to wake me up to start my day. I'd shut the alarm off, but right at 7am it went off and it played that song, I threw the knife, and I stood my ground. I got over the rape a long time ago, the fact that my family aided him in beating me, got enjoyment from my pain and then when the truth came out, chose to sweep it under the rug using the term it's in the past well that's something you don't get over as fast...
You're right, you don't get over it fast. But you took your power back! You survived when they tried to break you down! I'm sorry that you didn't get the protection and love that you deserved from them and that you were so violated and betrayed. I hope you know now how worthy and lovable you are 💖
I know that all of too well. But all it takes is one small flicker to start combatting it. I always encourage people to look for that flicker instead of looking for a way to vanquish all of the darkness.
This is a fantastic song. But to me the video and the lyrics don't match up to each other. When I listen to the lyrics without the video I get a completely different meaning to the song.
❤️ your Channel 🙏 i think it’s amazing despite what you have been thru that you are such a big help for others🙏 be proud of what you have become❤️ Just want to say this to you (from the text of Under your scars by Godsmack) Do we make sense? I think we do In spite of everything that we've been through When you say black and I say white It's not about who's wrong as long as it feels right Don't think those stars won't align❤️🙏 You are a inspiration✨
Nickelback hate comes from the hardcore metal fans that hate that Nickelback’s instrumentals r so generic and basic. Their music vocally and lyrically is great but the instrumental turns a lot of hardcore metal fans off.

This song will always be special ... because this song was played at my friend's daughter's funeral .... I have tears in my eyes, I remember that day well enough
Doesn't matter how many times ive heard this song or seen this video it still makes me emotional.
I wanted you to know your reaction gave me strength. You saved my life. Was ready to give up tonight

The part with the cell phone dropping from his pocket is the best part when he shows it to his son.
Can't remember if I commented on this video before, this is the first song that helped me with my depression and anxiety ❤
Any time I hear anyone trash Nickelback I direct them to this song. Because I think it's one of the best things they have ever done.
Some of us are always alone and always will be and we either accept that or we die.
Being alone is a choice. We all get rejected. We all get betrayed. We all get hurt. We just learn to let those people go and hold out for the ones that will show us love and compassion. They are there! There's a whole community here that will love and accept you!
Still love this track!! I have chronic depression and have tried to...ya know, multiple times when I was younger. But this song really helps. And songs like this. I'm glad you're still here! Keep going!

We've got your back. My email is in my video descriptions. Reach out any time.
Im good Amanda LUV U LUV U LUV U thanks for caring!!!!
That song makes ball every time. Try listening to lightning crash by live and sober by tool.
I'm a new subscriber after watching this. Since I am new, I'm not sure if this would be appropriate, but, "Three Days Grace - Never Too Late" is a song I've always appreciated.
You have survived 100% of yourbad days
OMG!! you are amazing...im seriously in love with you!! keep up the reactions! Try reacting to Martina McBride and Rascal Flatts pweeeze!
"The way I see it, there's two types of people...
There are the ones who spend their lives trying to build a future and thoes who spend their lives trying to rebuild the past.
For too long I've been stuck in the middle...

@MentalAmanda
This song lullaby is actually based on the drummer and how he became a single father.
When my 3rd son was born everything went wrong my wife was whisked away to surgery and my son to the NICU.
A nurse appeared while I was still standing in the birthing room, she silently took my hand leaving my wifes rings in my hand, turned and strode away as I hit the floor among the debris.
All three of my sons are grown and doing well yet still inside I'm laying there alone and shattered on the floor, this video kills me and still every one more day I try.
I'm sorry that you didn't get support during such a difficult time. I hope that you can find the strength that your wife's love gave you. I hope you can find ways to share her wisdom with the world. Please feel free to share your favorite memories of her here so we can help keep her spirit alive. 💖
Ahhh great reaction , you are amazing ! keep it up superstar =D
So I’m back to explain what the song is about, the song is clearly about suicide. From the beginning, "Out on a ledge" and "cutting yourself" are both forms of suicide.
"Out of the Darkness" and "Into the Light" are both Suicide Prevention programs/groups.
"I'm scared as hell 'cause I can't get you on the telephone"
is not a feeling that I would wish on anyone.
When you know your family member is suffering from depression,
they feel hurt and alone.
When they take off somewhere - and they don't answer their phone, this feeling is scary as hell.
LYRICS -
I know the feeling
Of finding yourself stuck out on the ledge
And there ain't no healing
From cuttin' yourself with the jagged edge
I'm tellin' you that it's never that bad
And take it from someone who's been where you’re at
You're laid out on the floor and you're not sure
You can take this anymore
So just give it one more try
With a lullaby
And turn this up on the radio
If you can hear me now
I'm reachin' out to let you know
That you're not alone
And you can't tell, I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get you on the telephone
So just close your eyes
Well honey here comes a lullaby
Your very own lullaby
Please let me take you
Out of the darkness and into the light
'Cause I have faith in you
That you're gonna make it through another night
Stop thinkin' about the easy way out
There's no need to go and blow the candle out
Because you're not done, you're far too young
And the best is yet to come
So just give it one more try
With a lullaby
And turn this up on the radio
If you can hear me now
I'm reachin' out to let you know
That you're not alone
And you can't tell, I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get you on the telephone
So just close your eyes
Well honey here comes a lullaby
Your very own lullaby
Well everybody's hit the bottom
And everybody's been forgotten
Well everybody's tired of being alone
Yeah everybody's been abandoned
And left a little empty handed
So if you're out there barely hangin', on
Just give it one more try
With a lullaby
And turn this up on the radio
If you can hear me now
I'm reachin' out to let you know
That you're not alone
And you can't tell, I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get you on the telephone
So just close your eyes
Well honey here comes a lullaby
Your very own lullaby
Well honey here comes a lullaby
Your very own lullaby
Only dead fish go with the flow....that's a good one.
When someone tells you that you are not good enough, it means they are not good enough, they are insecure and willing to hurt you to make themselves feel better.
Amanda you are a God send to people. No matter if you're a believer or not. You are on your path as you should be. The hardest part to understand is why you have to do things and have certain struggles to get to where you're supposed to be. I think you have arrived Amanda.
May I suggest you react to Guy Sebastin "Standing with you". This song fits your message beautifully. Keep fighting and sharing your message, it makes a difference.❤
On my journey the only one telling me i'm worthless is my self. I still have not forgiven myself for my wife and son's death, Not sure when or if I will be able to but I have a young son that I have to be here for. My battles are every day and night fight to get out of bed, fight to do cleaning, and everything, nighttime I get hit the nightmares. I just don't know.
I hope that you find the peace you deserve. 💖
@@MentalAmanda Thank you soooo sooo much sweetie!
I have some requests if you take any Amanda
Where’d you go -fort minor
One more light LIVE 2017 -Linkin park
Crawling live 2017 -by Linkin park as well
I think that one more light live and crawling life by LINKIN PARK got me crying or almost. If you can react to any of those when you have the time I would highly suggested especially one more light and crawling by LINKIN PARK both live from 2017 of course. I think those were from the last show before a week or 2 before his untimely death. If those songs don’t get you emotional I don’t know what well.
Oh and breaking the habit live 2017 same show
I gave up. You give me strength. Glad I didn't die tonight
It is like a theme song
I'm glad too 💖
A song that I believe you’d enjoy is from the band Anathema, and the song “Dreaming Light”
The last time I tried to kill myself it felt like an ocean crashing into me wave after wave and really did hear a gut wrenching scream from deep within myself for all the pain to just end, it scared me. I'm so glad I didn't and you if anyone feels that open up ask for help, hell find me on FB I'll message back you are worth the fight to make it through another night another day.
Please do more Nickelback videos!!!! ♥
Oh, and another reaction suggestion, if you're open to it: "S.O.S. (Anything But Love)" by Apocalyptica, featuring Cristina Scabbia. It's written from the perspective of someone stuck in a toxic/abusive relationship. Really powerful.
I never heard or saw the video before but before mom gave birth I had a feeling the baby would be born and the mother would die and he would bond with his newborn and not give him up for adoption. He chose to take on the hardest job you'll ever have - being a parent.
It's really an inspiring, though emotional, video.
PS. Can I get your email? I wanted to send you something special after yesterday's stream
People like u are powerful and inspirational. U have no idea how important u are and how many people u stopped from taking their own life just by speaking out. What u are saying is u arent alone in this....u arent just a dot in this world. Do u know what the difference between being lost and being found? Its taking 1 step forward when u feel like all hope is lost.
I would highly recommend doing a reaction to any of their following songs. After the Rain, Far Away, Someday, If Everyone Cared, If Today Was Your Last Day. And I have included a link for - Never Gonna Be Alone th-cam.com/video/Nt2kM0TsubU/w-d-xo.html
this song has gotten me through so much, I’m 14 years old and tbh struggle sm w my mental health. I’ve had 4 suicide attempts and this song has just helped so much in all honesty. I feel like I’m understood iykwim? Like I’m not alone. Idk if that makes sense, I’m kind of a loser☠️
You're not a loser and you definitely aren't alone. We've got your back 💖
You are no loser
The nowhere stairs understands the pain Amanda..
Wish you would do jealous of the angels by Donna taggart. Might help them deal with sudden loss.
Please react to Guy Sebastian “Standing with you”. This song should be the anthem for all people who support mental health sufferers.
I’m a survivor of a suicide attempt, live with depression, and ptsd. I’m a serving firefighter and I’m doing ok for now. One day at a time right.
Thank you for what you do. I am happy that you are still here and that you are pressing forward. We need you!
@@MentalAmanda thank you. I’m trying to get other men and women in my profession talking about their mental health, but it’s an uphill battle. Talking helped me acknowledge my position, and I now understand the triggers, recognise the onset, and have good coping strategies in place…. My dogs. Without them I’d almost certainly have tried again. I don’t belong here and struggle to find joy in most things but my dogs keep me going. Wish I could be happy and enjoy my successes but I just can’t. I know I don’t want to go, but I also know it’ll be a relief when I do. Every day I find a reason to stay and it comes in the form of my dogs. 2009 my crisis started, 2022 still here. I’m winning
@@adamcoope8726 You absolutely belong here just like the rest of us who struggle. The best way to get others to open up is to keep doing so yourself. Gives your pups cuddles for me! 💖 You'll keep winning!
Listen to Savin' Me by Nickelback
This is videos is amazing 😭😭😭
You should check out either "Car radio" or "Neon Gravestones" by 21 pilots.
You really need to react to we three with sara, that song is a major trigger and so sad
If you haven't yet,you should do a reaction to here and now by staind
You should react to If Today Was Your Last Day if you haven’t heard it already
I love Lullaby. But you have to react to the Citizen Soldiers "This Is Your Sign" 💙; . This one is the song for everyone with suicidal thoughts and depression. It's a lifesaver ! 🙏
You know I was just scrolling thru NB reactions cause I'm a huge fan and like to see how others react albeit all the undeserving hate they recieve.... And coming across this channel honestly a godsend... I've been struggling with mental health my whole life... Years of misdiagnosis and medication shoved down my throat that only made my mind and body worse..... And now going throughthe extreme hardship of being forced away from my partner (who now has to fight dhhs corruption to save our daughter from foster system abuse by herself) and my child... Being homeless in a state away when I have an apartment... Just be,cause if I didn't leave we would've lost her.... The constant discrimination was so abusing... Apparently I'm inherently violent because I am autistic..... Sometimes RN honestly I really don't know how much longer I can stand this shit.... I'd know much patience I have left with life.... I'm trying to hold on to the hope that we will be get back and be a family finally.....(cause they took her from hospital when she was only 3 days old) but every day it seems that possibility gets slimmer and slimmer.... I might lose them both.... And I just know that I can't and won't be able to live with that... The state broke my family and my soul... I'm suffering alone, and idk what to do anymore honestly... They were gonna arrest her for a flashback dude..... I couldn't let that happen... And since hey don't care about mental health.... I had to lie and take the fall for something that wasn't even in her control.... I sacrificed myself for the good of the family and my daughters safety... And we still might get fucked... In this world it seems no good Deed goes unpunished... I just can't handle that kind of stress anymore... Idk if I can hold on much longer... This song saved my life once... But I feel like it'll take a real miracle (not a lullaby this time) to piece my life back together... If my family doesn't reunite forget about it.... My life ends there... I'm just trying to figure out how to try and prepare myself... He out of this rut... And prepare a new home for my family if we can reunite... I just don't know if it will happen... And there's no moving on for me if it doesn't... They are my whole world... The only family I've ever had that truly loves me..I have my whole life invested in them... And I don't want anything or anyone else..... I can't live without them... Which is what's making it hard for me to make any headway on my situation now... I'm trying... Accomplished some things... But idk... Its still one step forward two steps back it feels like, and I want to keep fighting for them and me.... I just have almost nothing left and no options no help...... And I just don't fucking know what to do rn.... I'm just lost
You didn't deserve the judgment and treatment that you received. There are plenty of functional and happy people who are on the spectrum, I know many personally.
I can also understand how difficult it is when family dynamics shift, whether by death, divorce or other factors. I always swore I'd never survive losing my parents. I fell into a deep, dark hole. But I did find my way out. It took a while!
You're not alone. We are here.
You need to listen to Falling In Reverse’s song Drugs, it’s about the singer’s Ronnie’s on struggles with addiction
Thanks for reacting to this song. It’s been a favourite of mine for a long time. Nickelback is definitely misunderstood and some of their less well known songs have a surprising amount of wisdom and care behind them.
If you’re not averse to listening to a Christian band, You Are More by Tenth Avenue North was a song that made a huge impact on my mental health in my lowest and darkest hour. The video is also awesome: th-cam.com/video/qlnEtGh3QXE/w-d-xo.html
I love nickelback and creed shinedown five finger death punch three day of grace and three doors down
I guess it's popular to hate Nickelback or something. I don't understand it either. Anyways, there's a song from them to check out. Too Bad, it's a subject I know a thing or two about.
Nickelback - Too Bad [OFFICIAL VIDEO] / Roadrunner Records

Very heart warming ♥️ ❤️
You inspire me
Thank you for your sincere and emotional reaction to this beautiful song. Please react to “Scalpel” from Alice In Chains. That song is currently getting me through a really tough time right now. If no reaction, just listen to it.
You should react to Emerson Drive Moments
Trigger Warning
My mom found me hanging one night a year ago. If she hadn't done so a few minutes later I'd have permanent brain damage. I'd already been cutting before that night. This was one of the songs that saved me.
I love your yellow left hand
Not much of a nickelback fan but this is nice positive song.
It may not be severe, but I think that song kept me from going down a much darker path
Nickelback ..."Saving Me"
Edge of a revolution
Please react to purpose for pain by Scott Stapp. This is a great reminder for everyone!!!
it's funny, when you understand why this song was highly requested, before she even starts the video
oh! and I won't be, ''making sweet, sweet love'' to that subscribe button - I won't be able to see the screen, afterward
Great song 👍👍👍👍
While this song means a lot to me, I'll have to say the one song that stopped me from taking my own life was "She's not Crying anymore" by Billy Ray Cyrus. At 13 a 37 year old man took my innocence and raped me. No one believed me and the person (a family member) who had been trusted with my care beat me, invited her friends including my rapist to beat my bare buttocks with a belt and buckle until I had cuts, and welts, scars from which I still have scars. They took everything from the basement I had to sleep in, leaving an alarm clock. During the day I was made to be their servant, so I snuck a knife in my shoe one night, I planned to take my own life I even knew which way to cut my wrists to ensure that by the time I was found I'd be dead. She only left me an alarm clock to wake me up to start my day. I'd shut the alarm off, but right at 7am it went off and it played that song, I threw the knife, and I stood my ground. I got over the rape a long time ago, the fact that my family aided him in beating me, got enjoyment from my pain and then when the truth came out, chose to sweep it under the rug using the term it's in the past well that's something you don't get over as fast...
You're right, you don't get over it fast. But you took your power back! You survived when they tried to break you down! I'm sorry that you didn't get the protection and love that you deserved from them and that you were so violated and betrayed. I hope you know now how worthy and lovable you are 💖
Crossroads by I prevail. Please, please, please
Edit: it will be the theme song of this channel. Please
Keep it up 💗
Please react to Three Days Grace Never Too Late
React to Popular Monster by Falling in Reverse , , , you'll love it. I'm happy to know that you're mentally feeling better
Here you go:

hard to comment clearly what i want but it's hard to see the light when your life is filled with darkness
I know that all of too well. But all it takes is one small flicker to start combatting it. I always encourage people to look for that flicker instead of looking for a way to vanquish all of the darkness.
If today was your last day is a good song by nickelback also
This is a fantastic song. But to me the video and the lyrics don't match up to each other. When I listen to the lyrics without the video I get a completely different meaning to the song.
🙏❤️
❤️ your Channel 🙏 i think it’s amazing despite what you have been thru that you are such a big help for others🙏 be proud of what you have become❤️
Just want to say this to you (from the text of Under your scars by Godsmack)
Do we make sense? I think we do
In spite of everything that we've been through
When you say black and I say white
It's not about who's wrong as long as it feels right
Don't think those stars won't align❤️🙏
You are a inspiration✨
I can't go on. Too many triggers. I wanna close my eyes to a lullaby
Are you working with anyone to help you with your triggers?
@@MentalAmanda not really. Honestly I don't know who to trust. But your video and your thoughts give me strength.
@@jamesdunn1857 That is understandable. You can email me or come here anytime you need insight.
Nickelback hate comes from the hardcore metal fans that hate that Nickelback’s instrumentals r so generic and basic. Their music vocally and lyrically is great but the instrumental turns a lot of hardcore metal fans off.
I like Nickel back there cool 🆒😎👍
React to Rotten Apple by Alice in Chains. It's right up your alley.
