Matt Haig is a voice that a lot of people need. Whether you suffer from anxiety or depression or other mental health disorders or your a person who knows someone that does, he is honest and real. and true to himself. We need more people like Matt Haig. #STOPTHESTIGMA
Hi Matt. I’m reading your book “Reasons to Stay Alive.”Probably the best book I’ve read..being someone who lives with depression and anxiety. I thank you for being so honest and open with your experience. It was written so well.Very inspired by your candor. Thank you so much for writing it.❤️
Deleting all of my social media for a few days is the reset I need sometimes. When I feel disconnected from my own life despite good things happening I know it’s previous mental health issues and I’m able to take the appropriate action to reduce the issue. I think self help is a massive thing with mental health and that can translate to just understanding your triggers and managing them. Great video
Anxiety is extremely upsetting - I haven't been able to let go of a traumatic situation for several years. I physically can't function or breathe properly ever. It's important to get treatment and, even more importantly, let go of the past and allow yourself to feel your emotions as you like. Otherwise, your past hurt will eat you up alive. I find that having a safe place to open up is very beneficial, especially to someone who you don't feel will judge you.
Outstanding author. I’m reading ‘How to stop time’ and from the way he portrayed the main character, I had a hunch he might have might have lived with depression at some point in his life.
If we're not truly interested in what strangers are saying on the internet we should not be engaging with them; it's a waste of time and energy. It's not healthy to be completely alone all the time nor to be constantly engaging - we need a balance of both. If we find we are worried we're going to miss out on something, we need to step back and take a deep dive to understand what we thinking we might miss that is important enough to risk your own health and well-being.
So Matt managed to get better and write a book about it. Enjoy success and triumph over the challenges that made his life extremely difficult at a time. Good for him. What about the millions who could not come out on the other side happier and more fulfilled?
it won't be forever, felt same right now, but a while ago i tried to imagine, expect that somehow it will find it's own way out of here, it gave me some sense of relieve. Gotta have some faith, things always doesn't work the way we want, so expecting something huge, would not gave the answer.
Matt i have just started your book reasons to stay alive! And no I have to argue i have been depressed and severely anxious ptsd also for over 25 years. I am 76 and foR me there is no future. I have things in my favour good family a roof if not mine. Pets i once had multiple talents but alas i cant. I am bedridden about 80% of the time I had lyme disease still have traumatised lost our smallholding lots of animals had to emigrate to. Be with family then two house fires one severe house uninhabitable, where am I to find this reason to stay alive aprt from my religious loyalty?
Every generation of parents struggles with the best way to bring up children. What might be different in this last couple generation (even boomers, believe it or not) who had the luxury of focusing on their children in way previous generations of parents didn't have. 😂
Matt Haig was good in this interview but Krishnan... Awkward... Displayed a lack of understanding of mental health. You can tell he hasn't experienced it and doesn't get it!
Pound sand Matt. No one can be happy living the vaporous life you tell us to reach for. The best you give people is distraction from their meaningless lives.
I didn't like the bOOK. The author is an antropicenthriat and egotistic selfish breeder. When u r not healthy YOU R NOT IMPOSING LIFE on your own kids. ITS a GAMBLEIMG it's NOT LOVE. Anyway, disappointed.

Is this the interviewer that Robert Downey Jr. walked out on?
Yeah it is
Why?
Yes it is.
@@pippajennings5856 is it an ego thing when the interviewer tries to pry about a sensitive personal topic that has no place in a movie interview?
@@cookiesncream994 exactly.. he literally started the interview by asking about his addictions and turbulent relationship with his father 🙃
I suppose my great compassion for other sufferers is a bit of a reason.
