- Rohan Joshi has a message for all of us who are in the never ending race towards happiness. "Anxiously Yours" is a reality check reminding us that deviating from this constant pursuit of happiness is not an abnormality.
We are so glad he shared his journey of dealing with anxiety and being there for others to thousands of strangers at Spoken Fest this year. Thank you for making us realize that none of us are alone. Watch his video, out now!

This magical Spoken feeling is back and waiting for you! See you at Spoken'22 on 19th and 20th November 2022, doston 💖 Mumbai, get your passes now : bit.ly/3S6aahh
✨
Finally someone addressed this correctly. How fake all the positivity of the social media is, denying to be sad, denying to feel.
ikr!! I fucking hate fake positivity!
I agree
Have anxiety? "Drink water". I hate self help threads on twitter and Instagram.
Denying the Truth denying the reality.

lmao did someone really say that?? if i didn't know better i would've taken it as a mocking rather than advice..... jeez
I always come back to this video whenever I have a crappy day. I hope Rohan sees this comment and realises that he has been a source of strength.
Hey Anushka! I just wanted to let you know that I'm working on a new podcast called Getting Meta (productivity, mental habits, yada yada) and one of the folks I spoke to was Rohan Joshi. I referenced your comment right towards the end. So even if he didn't see it, he now knows about it and said it brightened up his day :D
The podcast (and episode) should be out in a few weeks, and I'll make sure I update this thread with the link. Just wanted to drop in a message to say thanks!
@@chuckofalltrades hey! Thanks so much! I'm looking forward to the podcast :))
@@anushkahazra7180 Thanks! We delayed the launch by a bit because it felt like the wrong time, but the IVM Podcasts team is working on it and it should be out by the month. I'll keep you posted here :)
@@chuckofalltrades eagerly waiting!
@@chuckofalltrades So humble of you to have written this comment. BTW, it was an awesome podcast. Just finished watching it and came here to re-listen!
“The opposite of happiness is not wrong.”
@@neelufartalikoti3492 Like people who are happy preaching to the people who are not happy,that you must be doing wrong. But the reality is,those people are not wrong,they are just sad. That's what I understood.
Irony: first stand up comedian , watching whom I cried rather than laugh and still feel so great
Thank you
Gratefully yours
N i did the same 😑
"We will wander between the darkness & the light, and that's okay."
"Cause that's who we are" changed my point of view
Same man, same.
You are. It is ❤️
The most honest piece ever.. Well done Rohan. This is exactly how a large section of people out there feel like....congrats to you for being able to represent such a vast majority of people in the most purest and honest way possible.
❤
‘I’m glad I stuck it out for this.’ All the power to you!
This was much needed for me today. I m anxious and under medication. My friends and family don't understand it really. I struggle almost every day to put my shit together. I am proud of myself. And I am open to anyone who comes up to me for help because I have been there, done that!!
Hey there, can we talk?
We're so wrapped up in a world of staying positive that we're ashamed to feel anything else.
'You're not preaching positivity,you're preaching denial' - dedicated to all the toxically positive people in my life!
"Opposite of happy is not wrong."
Such a wonderful piece.
The words I’ve needed to hear and I didn’t even know I needed that so badly until now. Thank you!
Keep moving forward. Just HOLD ON!
Spare me from the lie that you have told that "happiness is the ideal, happiness is the default"
Finally someone speak my mind...I like being neutral or sad or low sometimes.
Seriously too much positivity sucks....Love u bro🤜🤛
P.S. - He is Tanmay Bhatt's source of strengths.
You have finally explained it in the best way. "That now I'm worried about me and you" that line man. Hats off man. Someone finally said it.
For someone who has been suffering from clinical depression and anxiety for a while now,I hate that I can't function without my meds. But I hope that some day,it will get better. Some day. Thank you Rohan.
Finally someone addressed toxic positivity in such a fucking sensible way🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 the opposite of happiness is not wrong!!!
This is exactly what I go through every single day. I have distanced myself from my friends and family because they are so fucking positive all the time and me, either I am lazy or crazy. I feel lost in their world.
I found this video about 3 years ago and i just keep comming back..this is just too raw and gives you the hope required💛🙏
Been avoiding this video thinking it was just another one of those motivating speeches about anxiety.. but oh boy! It is a gem... I could relate to every sentence, its hard when you have this constant voice in your head always debating and whispering and you cant explain it to a single soul ... i am so glad i stumbled upon this.. this video really made my day..
Wow! It was all that i felt and no one understood. Whenever you try to explain ‘em, they be like ‘’stop thinking so much’’ and i am like “dude, that’s the whole point. That’s my disease that I CANNOT STOP THINKING!!! As if you say to a sick person that cure yourself out if you’re suffering” . It’s not easy to go all through this so please be nice and yeah we already know ‘think positive and shit’. They are Just temporary solutions. Maybe try to listen us peacefully. That’ll be more than enough. Thanks:)
so true Nikita...people just expect positivity to burst out of us. I am struggling with anxiety and depression for over a decade. Whatever you wrote felt so right. People just want us to shake it off. hmph...tired
Actually I don't know much about depression or anxiety as such, but could relate with you. I am just 16 and feel no confidence in whatever I do. It doesn't mean I am bad at those, rather sometimes they turn out to be fabulous, but those few seconds of praise don't last long and I again get onto the journey towards the dark. I sometimes feel it attracts me to it, and though unwantedly, I follow.
I felt good that there's someone else there who understands, and cares. But afterall we stand alone.
@@vishveshmuley1501 yes thats what keeps happening with me. People around me are like why are you so sad its just hard to explain things to them. Especially its worse with online classes
His breaking voice made it that more hard hitting
Felt it from heart
Person in front row: oh Rohan Joshi is performing! Let me sit in the centre of the front row so it feels like he's talking right to me
Rohan: ... . ...
That's the only way he has got
Usually the spotlight is so bright that they can't even see where the people are sitting. And it's not a metaphor 😁
From a person who also suffers from anxiety, thank you so much for explaining it so well. Yes let's address the truth for a change, and escape the denial. I feel that denial is also a disease, and most common in our country. More power to you Rohan! I wish i could articulate it so well like you did.
How brilliant! No script. No pause. Straight from the heart. What a performance!
Everyday, every minute, you are judged or atleast that's how you feel, all eyes on you, what you wear, eat , drink , where you go , what you do, everything is clicked and posted or atleast it should be posted . A virtual world has cause real problems. Quotes ignore the struggle, and are just lines to not to pacify, but to make us feel worse. Real Talk is needed. Real Friends are running short of. Being unreally real is not the solution.
Wow finally someone spoke about it.Does anyone else feels that flight mode too when you have to meet a new person or group of persons or even your doctor!I want to run away
And from the very 1st second i somehow know he is anxious while performing also
Feeling blessed that a dear friend of mine shared this video with me. Glad that I watched it. Much needed. I appreciate the way Rohan speaks out these hard-hitting facts, which are mostly like an elephant in the room in our societies! These are suppressed feelings and experiences that most people fail to share or acknowledge due to the lack of that ideal space, emotional intimacy and understanding with close people in their lives and with their own selves, at times.
Thankful for your efforts. Let's prioritise mental health alongwith physical health ! And be by each other's side✨
Out of all the videos shown in my feed I'm glad that I was stuck to hear this.
Same
His head keeps going from 0° to 180° and back to 0°
Because he is too anxious to turn to people on other side 😊
Hands down !best lines to describe a human's emotions.
One of the most blatantly honest and required pieces ever, thank you Rohan :)
"Opposite of Happy is not wrong"
Damn! i felt it :)
I am sure that anyone here watching this now is just to calm themselves down because of the mess that is going around in the world. Power to you amigo and to everyone and I just had my dose.
I honestly loved how he incorporated Batman's dialogue about staring into the abyss. I feel a lot of people didn't realise the depth of that line and the fact that he put it in such an easy to comprehend way is applaudable. Very nicely done, Rohan.
You are someone else's source of strength - No I am not
You are weak- Yes I am
It isn't always nice, It isn't always pretty - Yes it is ugly
You should stay- No, you should stay or you should not stay is not someone else can decide for you, it is each to its own, and it can be right or wrong, but it is what 'It is'.
Some stays and some don't AND each one is right.
Life is cruel, In Life if anyone is a real winner, it is the life itself, because no matter you stay or you don't, life still continue one way or the other, and that is why this debate of if one should stay or not is useless.
I feel like this is the truest thing I've ever heard
Amazing amazing...downloaded it as a reminder that things will be better and I'll be glad that I came out of thag abyss. I wanna say thank you again and ik u won't see this but thank you those words mean a lot for everyone who's going through some abyss in their lives.
AH, BEAUTIFUL, ROHAN. JUST BEAUTIFUL.
"I am glad I stuck around for this."
Its time people start talking bout real anxiety issues not just the fancy one! Which is not even 1% of what actually a person has to go through.... It just bites you in the inside to throw away your life and you really believe that it would have ZERO impact on world.. whether you r a living being or dead! Brave of you Rohan to put it in words such intelligently 👍🏻👍🏻
Keep coming back to this. This is so relatable . Thank you for this Rohan. Some people just don't understand if teenagers can problem
No wonder he is an inspiration to Tanmay Bhatt and to many of us 😍😍😍 truly touched the heart 💖
"You are not preaching positivity, you are preaching denial" ❤️
Loved every bit🥺❤️
Well said ! I hv Been there in 9th standard and people are like "tujhe iss umar mein kya problem hai"
Anyways am just loving it how people are just coming out and adressing mental health ! I hope we grow above mere "physical well-being" soon !!
Same here...9th standard..it was dark for me.. so dark..
What he said about the people preaching positivity is very accurate. They make you feel like a criminal for being sad or anxious. “Opposite of happy is not wrong.” Thank you, Rohan! ❤️
Also, This. 😂
“The next time you're sick, I'll come to your house, throw your medicines out of the window, and say 'it is not you who has maleria, it is mosquitos who are assholes.' ”
boss, thanks for being truthful, you’re one of my favorite Indian comedians, thank you for this honesty.
The worst part of all is that I could relate to everything he said, I was realising I have anxiety but there's nothing I can do about it.
I really, really, really hope it gets better for you some day
If u guy's happy with this video,u must watch wake and bake of rohan Joshi...uplevel of it...❤️
the opposite of happy is not wrong - rohan joshi bhai kya line boli hai 🔥
Thank you thank you thank you thank you Rohan. We as psychologists often need spoken mediums to let the message out, thanks for being that voice. This will reach out to many people from my end. Thank you again ❤️
This was amazing
Thank you so much!!
Today it has been 6 months since my mother passed away.
Nothing in life is going right.
Good to hear this piece.
Hey how are you holding up? ❤️
I relate to each and every word of yours. I am living with anxiety and depression from last 20 years. I was in a place deeper than hell when during my pregnancy and childbirth. I had none who understood me. I am better now handling my life much better. But, people still don’t relate to what I have gone through and they never think that people around have betrayed me and left me alone during that state of life. I almost got no help from doctors as well. They aren’t ready to treat prenatal and postpartum issues
This made me cry. What really hit me the most was the opposite of happy is not wrong.
I don't know why I am crying, but thank you Rohan Joshi and Spoken Fest ❣ I am going to revisit this every time I feel low.
Lip biting till it looks like the surface of the moon- well said
Thank you Rohan, you made me shed tears of joy
I wish somebody could have sent this to Sushant the actor, in time.
deep & true, would come back 💛
Why is he so underrated?!
He deserves better
Video needs million views💁
This was deep, kudos to Him!💫💓
Heyy Pankhuri 😁
@@samjebaraj24 Hie!!
I don't know if this even matters but I'm glad I saw this video .. I'm legit smiling thankyou.. anxiously yours
Thnx rohan Joshi! ❤
I would love to reach this level of sophistication in convincing others of my views.
Almost teared me up! ❤️
I'm not anxious but positivity quotes on social media makes me anxious.
My eyes filled when he said “You don’t know how your friends and family are doing because you cannot get out of the door one day” 🥲
I was just numb while listening to this. What a piece man
Anxiety has been so appropriately described, didn't know that it's not just me who feels so much all the effing time.. I thought that it's just me who feels anxious beyond repair.. it's saddening that others do too :(
Thank you Rohan. I don't know how to express my gratitude to you for sharing this with everyone, but, thank you. More power to you man.
So beautiful and so strong. Keep coming back to this ❤
Cant cry enough. Am strong as hell. But this depicted me so accurately and now I am more worried than ever.
I am an avid #MentalHealthAwareness advocate and spoken word performer, and I love this so much. I travel the country trying to bring that awareness on stages, in classrooms, hospitals, and on my TH-cam channel, so I get excited when I see other advocates. 💙❤
I can’t thank you enough for this man. 😭😭😭😭
Thank you Rohan. I have been struggling with anxiety and depression for more than a decade. It is tough. All your words hit me like a spear in the heart. Truth and truth lies behind those words....you know exactly how traumatising this illness can be. Thank you once again, for understanding and helping me not give up this life.
Thank you Rohan for saying this out loud. Listening to it, helps me in one of those days. And, I really want to thank you for this. Cheers to Kommune India team for putting it together.
Thank You Rohan Bhai for putting your thoughts through this medium...It will help a lot to most of people who is not able to talk about it but feel something just like this...
Thank you so much..God Bless You...😘
Patronizing....OMG yes! I had been trying to figure out why I felt awful when someone told me "Things are going to get better". WOW. THANKYOU ROHAN JOSHI I FUCKING LOVE YOU
This is exactly what we need after 2020...
Every single option in the menu is the geyser you forgot to switch off... What a way to make people understand what anxiety is... I didn't know before this video.
Thankyou Rohan.💜..i needed to hear this...i feel like screaming at times but cant... my body just wants to stop..but i will live through this...
i would've just hugged u if i was there.....thankyou for addressing how it feels to be ANXIOUS!
i love this video, rohan is amazing
High time someone called out forced positivity. Thank you, @RohanJoshi
Thankyou for putting this out here. I do suffer from anxiety. Sometimes I just feel empty. Its not a good feeling but I manage to laugh through it. This is life.
"The opposite of happy is not wrong."
You are somebody else's strength whether you are aware of it or not 👌 this line 🔥
Very well articulated. After Daniel Fernandes you are second comedian whose hit in on the point about mental illness. However it's worrying to see that so many comedians are dealing with anxiety or other mental illness. This shows it doesn't matter who u are or what you do when it comes to mental illness. It's commendable that you guys are coming out with your vulnerable sides and reaching out to people and helping them in your own way.
Man, I cried seeing this. What a powerful talk♥️
Listening to him talking about anxiety is giving me so much anxiety exactly because I wanna help him and all the other people around me 24x7 but these days I don’t have the energy. I don’t want to die but I want a break from existing coz it’s super tiring. And I hate how while watching something so amazing I am thinking about the history project that is already way behind it’s deadline. Somehow all I want right now is a person I can lie next to whose company I enjoy but that is so fucking hard to get.
Very rightly said.
the emotion in this;; i am really, i was just blown away by this guy
All anxious people died watching the people who kept moving behind Joshi while he's talking.. What's with all that.. Omgg!! 😂😂
This is the best that I have heard so far
This was so wonderfully put up. Many people would have thought this way one day or the other or many days in their life. You have put it so nicely that "Yes, I stayed for this moment or this day going through my abyss". That moment will probably erase some of the hardships that you have had to bear, but that lovely moment will come. And it will keep coming, that is for sure. All the best all the people out there who are living their struggle and decide to keep moving. That is life.
To be comfort and strength to someone is a beautiful purpose of life! For all the things u can't be, this surely u can be✌️
Thank you rohan .. thank uu...i m speechless the way u expressed all that feelings and thoughts an anxious person goes through is amazing
Why so relatable bro??
This is the thing i wanted some one to say this to me just once...... i dnt have words to express wht i m feeling... but honestly for guys like me u really helped us 😁😁 wish u good luck for your that day
This is surprisingly profound. Thanks Rohan.
Finally someone putting it so right... Very well done bro... And really thanks for putting it so well.. loads of love ❤️
This is the best thing I've heard my entire life. Thank you.
I think everyone especially parents should watch this
