      Sad she is gone... I dont understand it if she knew all this and had so much to live for a whole lot more than I or some of us do... She had a husband who loved her. friends, fame, she had Jesus, her faith even humor and much more to look forward to... So I dont understand why she lost her battle why she took her life... I have so much that depressed me and so much grief and loss... How am I supposed to go on Lord when she could not? She knew so much and had so much love so much help and even hope... She did not feel hopeless like some of us she got help from supposedly the best of the best professionals... So what happened... I want to know

    So sad that the therapy and (possibly medications or whatever treatment she may have received) just wasn’t quite enough for her. What an extraordinary talent and beautiful woman. Im just sharing my heart, so don’t be offended, but I feel like someone can never really find true, lasting peace and joy in life unless they ask Jesus into their heart and life. He is a true best friend and loves us more than we have the capacity to even fathom. He’s free. And He’s alive. God bless you. And Rest In Peace, Naomi. We will always love you!

      Ironically, if you read her memoir River of Time, 2013 (the year she gave this talk) was one of the worst years of her life regarding her mental health. She had extensive stays in the hospital, rehab, a psych ward, etc. She was dealing with severe treatment resistant depression, panic attacks, and PTSD. It's scary how normal she could make herself look in public.

    Naomi Judd was one hell of a woman..so strong and overcame so much,I don't know how she managed to do everything she did but she is truely remarkable and sad that she continued to suffer so much with depression even with all her success and love around her...she had been through so much though

    Naomi's kindness, work ethic, stick to it-ness, is what made her famous, here she is one of the gals, sharing her stories , teaching other women to be better, she has given all of herself fully , shared in music, learned experiences, she is in her heavenly mansion now, God rest your soul beautiful , sweet lady Naomi.

    This lady was beautiful inside and out. It's so sad she couldn't overcome her demons. She was strong courageous inspiring eloquent lovely. She was so much more than she thought she was. A legend a beautiful piece of country history. She was and had so much yet failed to believe she made a difference. So many admired not only for her beauty and talent but her kind and gentle soul, and wisdom to help others. A beautiful flower that blossomed, but yet withered away when she had so much power. R.I.P beautiful lady. Gone but not forgotten.

    • @kathleenreed122

      She could overcame the demons if she stuck stay true to Jesus her Lord! Because at one time she was a Christian she overcame depression and all that she went through years past when she was younger.

    First crisis that changed everything? Watching my step mum slice her wrist when I was 3 1/2 years old. She told me it was my fault. Of course at that age you do not have the mentality to think otherwise, you just believe it. Then you "man-up" quickly because there's no one there for you. But how much can you be there for yourself @ 3 1/2 years old? It is NOT my fault, IT IS HERS! But we never forget, no matter how many times we wring out that proverbial sponge, we never forget.

    14:00 I think this is what caused her deep pain until the end. I can relate, both my mother and mother in law are unsafe people to tell troubles too because they will turn it around to be my fault somehow. At the same time, they used me as their sounding board.

    I think along time ago people didn't show affection like they do now. I was gone from home for two years and when I came home I hugged ny Dad and I started crying, and he said why are you crying? I Loved my Dad and I got emotional. My Dads family didn't show emotion.But I knew he Loved me, but never used the word Love.

    She mentioned her daughter Ashley suffers from depression too. But sadly Ashley was the one that found her after she shot herself. The pain and shock of having to find her mother like that is just unimaginable to a daughter. Naomi should of thought about who would find her after she committed suicide and how that person will be traumatized (even more) for the rest of their lives.

    • @butterfliesandstars9286
      @butterfliesandstars9286 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Naomi had been dealing with depression for many years and had often spoke about ending her own life with a firearm. Ashley, Wynonna, and Larry should have thought about that before they let Naomi be left alone with a gun. Naomi was vulnerable and obviously not thinking clearly. She was the victim in this situation. People need to stop blaming Naomi.
