Wild camping saved my life. 2021. Do not underestimate the power of nature to heal. Just keep doing what you are doing and you WILL be ok.
Thank you. I will!
Well Done.
Stay positive pal a lot of people are Struggling with mental health and not saying anything about it i think you are doing the right thing camping I like your channel and keep it up
There are a lot of people that never talk about it, as it can be really hard to be honest about, with so many seeing mental health as a weakness. Thank you mate, I'm enjoying camping alot.
If that sheep was to keep you up all night .. you’ve always got your . . 🤣 . . Shear-plugs !! 🤣😂😜
😆🤣
Getting out & being one with nature will always help. Iv lived alone for years but always feel renewed when I’m out in the countryside/ mountains camping. Keep doing what you’re doing. You seem like a really nice guy with a lovely family. Maybe we’ll meet out in the Peaks one day . 👍
Good lad get well tiger.
I suffered from panic anxiety and depression for, well, decades now. Medication controls it. These days I camp on a cot on my balcony, overlooking a landscaped courtyard with a large pool. It provides fresh air and a bit of a change but it is nothing like a true wild camp.
Still sounds amazing! I'm glad you've found medication that can control it too.
Anything that’s a ‘flow’ activity will help the head. Whatever absorbs all your attention will work. Motorcycles, bushwalking, carpentry, kayaking, music, sailing, hunting, painting, welding, cycling, brisk walking, yoga, … and let yourself get into that flow without distractions (phone off, no news, no music, focus only on the activity). And it’s advisable to stop all consumption of mainstream news … it just does your head in, and you won’t really miss it.
Great advice, thank you!
Thank you for being so open. Little tips in there I'm going to hang on to. Thanks.
I’ve suffered with it for 10+ years…. We are all behind you 💪🏼
I'm sorry you suffered for so long, I hope things are better for you now.
Stick at it and keep going!
Thank you.
Just turned 40 mate and just been diagnosed always been ashamed best thing I've done is open up..camping really helps just started doing it myself it's brilliant therapy. Keep it up mate 👍👍
Yes it will help you
The only thing that can save your life is you. But being out in nature certainly can't hurt... I don't suffer, but I do manage my mental health. I get out into nature as often as possible, and always feel more settled in my mind. Whatever works, works.....stay focussed, things come and go in life, including these times of poor mental health, things will get easier, they always do.....
Enjoyed the video again mate, very relaxing. Take care quack-quack 👍
Thank you James!
I’m with you bro, 👊 hope to meet you one day, we love nature and nature loves us back 👍
We certainly do love nature :)
Massive respect for the video, much love from Sheffield!
Thank you!
Hi Fuzzy, I could probably make whole video about my life story, I always struggled from a young age but always loved sports and the outdoors, when I was in school I started going to the old acid house parties and you can guess I spent a fair few years on drugs, I always blamed my mental health, long story short I’ve suffered with Schizophrenia for over 22 years now, I’m lucky as I can control it now but find you just have to live with it.
I think I’m always on my own there’s no one else like me, I’m about 12 years clean now and have done over 37 marathons or longer up to 54 miles quite a few triathlons and love to get out in the outdoors, keep up the good work
Total Respect to you Lee...enjoy your journey of healing...mother nature will give you the peace needed to see your inner strength & courage...less self beating & more self love is a game changer...keep sharing & welcome to the world of exploration...🌟💪🤞💞🐾🧚♀️🐣🐤🐥
Mama Nature warms anyones soul who is willing to massage her earth
You are doing great Lee. Just take your time and really absorb where you are. Nature will look after you as long as you respect it 😁👍
Yes, but don't go like a bull at a gate. Just take it easy and flow through the countryside, taking in all the smells, colors, textures, and movement expenditure as it comes. Don't set goals for distance etc., just meander through the countryside. The countryside is the human's natural environment; cities are grating with their concrete, steel and crazy noises. Enjoy... We have used camping and bushwalking (meander style) for most of our life to counter bouts of depression. The insanity of humanity living in the modern conditions smacks against what our bodies and mind were designed for. The simpler for us, the better. Clean fresh air etc....
I no longer have a car… but have a bike and legs. I plan to bike to a river and camp on the bank. Keep doing what you’re doing! X
That sounds like a solid plan! I hope you enjoy it. :)
Great watch, here for your journey. One breath at a time fuzzy! Atb
Thank you for the support :)
What a lovely, warm and positive video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love your videos. Just keep going. It helps me also just watching your videos ❤😊
Will it help you? …. It already is ! I can hear it in your voice. Keep on Lee, I loving watching you x
Something about being outside, self sufficient, alone with your thoughts in nature really helps with mental illness, it's my go to happy place being out on trails running. Keep making videos keep adventuring 😊
Thank you, I will!
iv been wild camping for 40 years its always amazing to go chill nice peaceful quite time in Buti full scenery cant beat it
Life is comp!icated, wild camping is about simplicity. Walk, eat, sleep, wake up and do it again. Love it! The old noggin can take a break wild camping. The answer to your question is right here in this video. I know you see yourself when editing but have you watched your entire video? The look in your eyes and the smile on your face says it all! Going home is always hard but think about planning for the next one and keep up with being grateful to be able to do so! Wild camping will save your life, if you let it. :) :). Thanks for being you, you have a wonderful camera presence and will help yourself and many others with your inspirational videos. :)
Really enjoyed this video, thank you for sharing this.
As someone who also struggles I can definitely relate, I find being outdoors helps to clear my mind, and camping takes away all the nonsense that we have around us in daily life. Just a night away can totally refresh our mindsets.
I really hope you are doing ok, you seem like a very genuine and nice guy, I wish you all the best for the future
No matter how hard each day can be, if we reach the next day, we have achieved something. I have pulled myself out of some extremely difficult times by just trying to reach the next day, and the next, and the next
Hope to see more of your videos
Take care
🙏
I think the city life can feel suffacating, getting out there into the country and experiencing some space and freedom should be something everyone tries at least once. I'm going to do this soon on my own and then eventually try and persuade my kids to come along with me. my goal is to eventually do this around the world.
Keep on getting out there mate. Sometimes it's hard to get out there but it's always worth it when you find the peace and solitude for your mind. Don't forget to look around and take it all in.
I'm taking as much as I can in at the moment. Going to try and get out as much as possible. Thanks mate.
Looking forward to my first night out next week, keep it up fuzzy you are an inspiration pal.
Fantastic, I hope you enjoy it! Thank you :)
Great video! I know for sure that the outdoors can make people physically and mentally healthier. I notice that I feel a lot better when I am outdoors a lot. The closer to nature the closer to yourself. I know for sure that the outdoors and especially wild camping can be a life saver for you and many others and myself included. I hope to see more of your outdoor adventures!
Your vids will help others fuzzy be positive even tho its hard at times keep strong duck😅
Thank you for the kind words!
Fantastic scenery man, this looks amazing!
Thank you! I love it.
Good on you chap keep going being outdoors in nature really makes a difference. What also helped me was I altered my diet and cut out all the crap sugar carbs etc and that turned me around really fast. Energy levels went up and my depression just went away. All the best and keep enjoying your camps 🙏👍
I'm trying my best to eat better and have been trying new recipes lately. Hopefully it should help thank you.
@@LeeFuzzy take a look at a chap homestead how TH-cam. It’s him that started me looking into changing my diet. It really has worked for me. All the best chap anyways 👍
It’s been a pleasure watching you, your openness will help not only yourself but many who struggle with their own mental health. There are many who use the outdoors as a therapy and have done for many years. I think you have found the start of a path that will lead you to an inner peace. Enjoy every moment and thanks for the video.
Stay outdoors my friend. Climb all the mountains in uk try some canoeing, kayaking and some fishing take it all slowly and smile.
Sending love from a fellow camper
I started my channel because of mental health. It helps alot, I have recently started doing wild camps on my channel to. But my main passion is abandoned mines. Exploring and adrenaline helps my mental health. Stay safe my friend
Good effort m8. just getting out the door is hard enough sometimes coming from someones who suffers severely with mental health. Keep your head up buddy
I just got back from walking the trails in the midlands for a few days, its a great replacement for self halm due to brambles etc, it lets you clear your mind and be alone but in a healthy way rather than sitting in bed telling yourself youre depressed and letting it take hold, it also helped me with interacting with others due to the people you meet on the trail. All the best Fuzzy keep your chin up and keep helping yourself in anyway you can, you only let it win when you give up and then you pass it onto others
Thanks for sharing your adventure, fellow IT worker here and I also enjoy the escape from the technology.
love it mate! keep on keeping on!
Thank you!
I sincerely hope so bud, U keep doing the good stuff & ya fans will be there for U....!✔️💯👊
Nice one. You remind me a bit of Martin Freeman crossed with Bob Mortimer - what a combo 😄
Excellent adventure with lovely scenery. Hope you continue with your new way of life. Looking forward to following your journey 👍👍😊😊
Just stumbled upon this on my recommended, well done you big up yourself
Thank you!
I'm doing the same thing for my mental health mate, go up to peaks and wildcamp when I can afford the petrol. Or go nearby local sometimes. It's a great thing to do.
Ey up me duck.
No that's not a joke, this is genuinely how I start most of my videos and also what I call most people so purely a coincidence, lol. *Nottingham born and bred though I'm now just over the border in Derbyshire.
I came across your channel and this video by chance and am glad I watched it. I'm also a life long sufferer of mental health and occasionally talk about it on my channel as I'm a strong believer in getting people to talk, especially men.
I think camping, walking, anything outdoors is definitely a massive help for mental health so yes I think it will help you tremendously as will getting that vital vitamin D from the sunlight.
Maybe we could do a meet up and camp together sometime fella.
Ay a good'un me owd. 👍🙂
Ey up me Duck! :D Glad to meet you and thank you for taking the time to share your story. It helps to know I'm not alone in this, so thank you. It is so important for men to talk and I hope by showing others, I can help at least one man open up. I will check out your channel!
@@LeeFuzzy
Cheers fella. I've not put up much of my camping as I kept much of it private but there's some on there and certainly more to be put up 👍
Excellent video! Very much looking forward to seeing your future camping adventures. I think it will have such a positive effect on your mental wellbeing. Being surrounded by nature has so many benefits to us. The Japanesd even have a term for it, "Shinrin-yoku" or "forrest bathing". They started using it as a medical treatment back in the 80s I believe to treat anxiety and depression. Keep it up man and dont forget the charger next time 😄
Good luck in your journey matey, I've been there. Will follow your channel.
Thank you!
Heya Fuzzy! Doc here. Really loving these videos! Glad to see ya still keeping up the fight to raise awareness for Mental health! You are a legend! 🦆
Hey Doc! Just glad I've found something I love again. :D
@@LeeFuzzy Also watch out for those Were Sheep! 😄
Good on you, mate. Proper impressive to get up and go full self-help in the face of mental illness.
The beauty and loveliness of nature is a forever thing. Fashions and styles and ideas and even therapies come and go, but the natural world is a constant. I have CPTSD myself and find I can handle my box of frogs so much better for regular immersions in nature. And when I go bird watching my mind goes completely quiet. It's like magic. It's medication AND meditation all rolled into one.
Wishing you every happiness, you deserve it.
Thank you for the kind words Larry. I'm glad yiou find happiness in bird watching. Nature truly is a healer :).
@@LeeFuzzy Also, birds are sane and therefore a good influence :)
So pleased you got to have a more comfortable night out. We have always found just being outdoors a great help to us, we just love it and it looks like you do too. We’ve never wild camped but have walked and hiked (consecutive days over holidays etc) for years over the Peak District and Lake District fells - once you start you can’t stop and you’ll be venturing further than that I’m sure. 😊 So good for you physically and mentally. Keep going and thanks for sharing.
Just found your channel and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Keep it going at your own pace mate,cheers 👍🏻
Thank you Stephen!
If your looking forward to things and you make the effort to get out your doing well. I wish you well. Nice video.
Mate your half way there some people can’t even leave the house
You can’t beat talking to the camera about how your feeling and what your thinking this is therapy nature is healing fuzzy
Ps your going to smash this TH-cam business ❤😊 take care trev
Thank you for these kind words Trev! :)
Nailed it mate and the sleeping bag is a great winter bag and really good in cold weather. Cheers mate 👍
Subscribed! Natural, engaging, beautifully filmed, a joy to watch. As you said (and we should remind ourselves) the journey is about the now and being grateful for what we have. The poem by William Davies nails it - What is this life if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare. No time to stand beneath the boughs, And stare as long as sheep or cows. No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass. No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like skies at night. No time to turn at Beauty's glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance. No time to wait till her mouth can, Enrich that smile her eyes began. A poor life this if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare. ATB Fuzzy!
Stay positive, always look for the positives, there are always there. The tent is strong and low, so good in wind. You seem to have bought good kit to keep you outside most of the year.
I keep my kit in open tubs (it allows moisture out) I can quickly grab everything I need without forgetting stuff.
I think the wildcamping will definitely help. It has me. If you have any questions, I'm more than happy to pass it on my experience to help you. I've been outside almost all my life, when I struggled, I wasn't going outside. I feel ive lost over 10 years, so I know what you mean. Watching this makes me excited for my next trip on Friday. Back Tor is between Hollins Cross and Lose Hill, I think you mean Great Tor? Great Video, keep 'm coming.
Thank you for the tips with the open tubs. I'm glad getting out wildcamping has helped you. It's good to know it helps so many others too. I also thought Back Tor is between Hollins Cross and Lose Hill, but there is a Trig point called Back Tor which is on Derwent Edge. See www.alltrails.com/en-gb/explore/trail/england/derbyshire/derwent-edge-back-tor-and-lost-lad and it shows the route I went. Very confusing, maybe its normally known as Great Tor. Anyway thank you mate, I hope you enjoy your next wild camp.
Don't let your mental health disrupt your time with nature and yes it should help you but only if don't let the illness get on top you are in charge of your mental illness show who's boss best of luck
Hey luv your channel ! Work in mental health so totally get why your doing this... enjoy the 1 to 1 with mother earth . X
Hi Fuzzy. What a refreshingly honest video. A someone who suffers with mental health issues especially the last couple of years, I can absolutely guarantee that wild camping works wonders. Mainly because you pretty much always have something to do which means you are always in the moment. Then of course you are surrounded by nature and the starry skies which all help to stay relaxed. You will have anxious moments when things go wrong, or you get soaked or hear animal noises in the woods (everyone gets freaked by those in the beginning) but they are few and far between. Mostly it's brilliant. You also come across as a really nice fella and I've subbed to watch how you get one. All the best. Oh, quick tip. Stick a spare charger in the inside pocket of your sleeping back when you get home so if you forget it, you always have that in the sleeping bag, which you'll never forget (hopefully!) Take care, all the best. Martin.
Thank you for your kind words Martin and great advice about the charger! I'm glad that so many of you have confirmed it does really help. I'm finding it so exciting at the moment and am glad its not just a passing joy but a lasting one. Thanks again.
I'll be going there soon, no idea where im gonna park or camp but i'll just turn up and work it out. I would like to have an open fire when i go, to keep me warm at night if nothing else.
What a lovely video, you seem like a good soul, my man.
As a sufferer I empathise and also can’t speak highly of the healing power of nature for mental illness.
Some stretching and yoga and meditation upon the hill might also help.
Keep on keeping on my friend, you’re not the thoughts inside your head.
Thank you for those kind words Paul! I will definitely try meditation when I'm out wild camping next. I usually do it at home but that's a great idea!
Great video amazing views, stay positive you are doing amazing ❤
Thank you so much 🤗
Just started watching your videos Lee you're a positive guy mate stay positive yeah wild camping and hiking will make you feel a lot better and it gets you out in the beautiful hills and mountains buddy you be fine mate stay positive take care yeah 👍💯
Thank you for the kind words Andrew. I hope this is the first of many more camps to come. :)
Hey buddy! Nice to meet ya. New subscriber here. Please do more of these. :)
Thank you, i will try :)
Thanks for sharing mate. I too suffer mentally, I have PTSD from my time in the Army. And I'm about to do something radical about it. I'm my way to start walking/wild camping the whole 630 South West Coastal Path . I've heard it's transformed many Veterans like me. I live in a city, allone,no family,and it's driving me mad! 🥴🥴🥴
I hope it goes well for you!
What an amazing Chanel good luck your doing really well with this channel, I really enjoy watching this it I'm sure it's gonna help others who are struggling ...
Thank you. I hope it helps!
W c is a different journey and place every time you go out don't let bad weather put you off just wrong clothing u see wot no one else dose its brilliant and peaceful enjoy pal
Hi Fuzzy, you have fallen on a hidden secret... the one to good health. Take it easy, and enjoy it step by step. Don't get caught up in the youtube/camping/high kilometers/gear bushwalking craziness.... Just go for yourself and your health. There are a lot of youtubers who are doing this for a living and spend more time on gear and video making rather than just being out there and enjoying it. It is our natural environment of humans... You don't need a lot of the expensive crap, including many of the meals that a lot of the companies flog. Just go buy what you like, take that, and then reload at the next shop you come across. A salad roll for lunch from a corner store or a pie makes a great lunch. Cup of soups, your cocoa, milo etc. really is all you need for drinks and remember, keep it simple and enjoyable. We have a friend who buys three sandwiches, eats one for lunch and toasts the other two for evening meal and snack... KISS applies... (Actually, its amazing what comes out of his pockets)...
Thank you so much for the advice. It's great to hear this, as it takes off so much pressure to try and stay relevant with gear etc. Yes i'll take what I fancy for my food from now on. :D
Hey fuzzy just come across your channel and watched this video and love it mate , love your positivity and chilled vibe. I myself suffer with mental health and wild camping helps me massively😊
Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad camping helps you too!
Get back to nature, recharge yourself, mind spirit and soul, just focus on the here and now, new start, fresh beginnings 🙏🏻👍❤
Just came across ya channel brilliant stuff proper down to earth and up there with all the other wildcamping channels atvb Darren 👍
Thank you for your kind comment Darren.
@@LeeFuzzy ya welcome Lee, keep doing what your doing not only is this helping you it's also inspiring other people watching your channel to get out there 👍
I recently moved to Derbyshire from Oxfordshire, I currently have 20 minutes drive to Peak District - that was the main reason for the move. Helped me, life slowed down a bit. It makes a big difference. But it will not, nor it should, replace therapy or medicine.
. . . Interesting reply ‘Draverro’. It most certainly can - if practised regularly as opposed to ‘occasionally’. As the Roman’s stated a couple of thousand years ago … ‘ A sound mind in a sound body ‘.
B e W e l l .
Nice one Fuzzy, ya just got another sub to follow U on ya journey...!✔️ I've only got half through & gonna have to go walk the mutt in a mo, but lmoa -"No charge cable...!" 😯🤯🤣 I did the same thing a few camps back, but once I got over the intial shock / horror of the situation & having no means of communication, I actually had a pleasantly quiet time & found other & probably better things to do...!!!😄👍 Look forward to more, keep up the good stuff...!👊
Thank you! Glad I'm not the only one to forget something vital haha. I had downloaded a netflix movie I wanted to watch as well, but glad It was all about the nature instead. :)
@@LeeFuzzy Unless it p-ssing hard & Ur tent bound, who needs netflix...!😄 I'm south east, but really wish that I was up there or in Wales...!🙏😄 Ur OEX 900 was in the breathable storage bag, which is huge, did it not arrive in the compression sack...!? I got a down bag & also Fathom400 synthetic & it boils me...!🥵😂 I'm hooked now, so gonna sort some scran & be back to join ya 4 dinner...!🙂👍
Good on you mate, for me I find wild camping really grounds you being surrounded by nature. Keep it up. It's kept me sane over the years 👍👍. Just subbed you and gave a gollow on insta ⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️
Great video, inspiring, hope you don’t mind shared you video in Peak District Wild camping, more people need to know about mental illness especially with men as we are supposed to be strong 💪🏻 but everyone needs a bit of help now and again, keep it up mate
I don't mind at all. The more the message gets out the better. Thank you!
My wild camping is my, "get away from it all."
I've had problems with my mental health in the past, and I still suffer now.
My shifts are erratic, and I used to get away a lot. Now my shifts have become even more erratic, and I get away less.
If you ever need a wild camp buddy that has gone through lots of MH problems, you are welcome to join me. I know some great places up the Peaks and Langsett.
Thank you for the kind offer my friend, it's truly appreciated. Pushing myself to socialise and actually meet up with someone seems a little overwhelming at the moment. I know it's what I need but doing it is another story. :)
@@LeeFuzzyno problem Fuzzy, I fully understand.
I go in the week as there are very few people. Also, I go in bad weather, again less people.
Talking about it on TH-cam is a good way to take your mind off your problems a bit, too. It also helps other people too.
This music has a very old school JRPG vibe. What is it?
Also right with you and many in the comments as I can relate in some way to the issues you have raised. Riding a motorbike helps me stay in a good place and I hope to get more camping done in the near future.
Fuzzy ay up it's cosmic or kozzy be happy mate I know it's hard even to find someone to talk to, that hikin it'll keep yer fit say the least Im a bit knackered disabled I envy you
Another great video, I’ve only done two camps so far with my brother and I absolutely love it, I’m off sick with a bad concussion at the moment but can’t wait to get out there again. Keep going pal.
Wow
How invigorating
Hi fuzzy
I to suffer mental health issues
My issues are getting out the house not been out for 3 yrs
Also im trying to conert myy car to a camper to get out
But not finding it to easy to take the leap
Thanks for a great, well edited, and inspiring video , it's nice to know there's others out there just like me, wild camping Certainly works for me, i made the mistake of going out to make a video, and focused on how many likes, and subs I was getting, and negative feedback can be detrimental, try to keep focused on YOU mate, and why you are doing it, and not on making the videos, dont fall into the same trap that I did, you got a like and sub from me👍 ive made over 700 videos but I keep most of them unlisted, atb regards beefy
Thank you for these inspiring words. I've just been camping with my kids this weekend and no camera was used at all. I know exactly what you mean!
Mental health cant exist with god, real exercise, real love (not lust) and having a connection to spirit/earth
Where are you camping in this video mate ?
I think it is known as Great Tor, but on the map its called Back Tor on the Derwent edge.
@LeeFuzzy nice one ! I'm struggling to get out on my own, so seeing your videos is inspiring, 👍
Buddy you need to try Jesus, 100% been where u are
Wild camping saved me pretty much,i have quite horriffic PTSD which sadly gets quite violent,therapy,emdr,you name it,ive had it,sadly,for me,it doesnt go away,ive been suicidal,been put on watch etc,getting out there,on your own,for me,massively helps,keep up the fight brother ✊
A sub from me!
I'm sorry that you suffer too. My heart goes out to you and I'm so glad that getting out helps you! 💚
In 2020, I experienced one of the most difficult times in my life. I lost a job that I really enjoyed, the pandemic was ramping up and I became more socially isolated, and the anxiety I had under control started to affect me again, to the point where I started to slip into that well of mental health troubles many of us are familiar with. But a friend and I started hiking and camping more. I started to get out and walk in nature and hike on my own too, and every time I went outside, I felt the anxiety and despair slipping away. Life makes so much more sense out in nature. You feel more connected to yourself, you’re able to be in the moment, living for that moment and that moment only. And that’s really what matters at the end of the day. Live for the moment, live to appreciate what you can, and try not to dwell on the not so great things in life. Nature will absolutely bring you healing-I’ve experienced it firsthand myself. Looking forward to continuing to watch your camping adventures! All the best! 🙏👍😁
Thank you for sharing your journey! It helps to know that being outdoors has helped others so much. I'm glad you found a way through your bad times and I hope things are better now.
Fuzzy, I enjoy wild camping, would love to do a meet up sometime, I’m in Tameside just past Glossop
keep going mate, i feel your pain but remenber we are all in this game called life together
Hi. Thanks for sharing. Wild camping, the great outdoors has definitely helped me a lot. Stay positive 🦆😎👍🏻
Great video again. keep it up.
Thank you :)
Nature heals love the video stay strong 😊
Keep em coming bro this channel will take off soon if you keep at it ! 👌
Any wild camp you can do keeps the demons away.
You can live and learn each time you go out there are 100s places to go
It certainly helped me, so I hope it does the same for you. Good luck on your journey
