Mental anguish is such a scary thing. I've been in some dark places and the thought of taking my own life came to me more than once. Thank you for telling your story without holding back. If you save one single life (and I'm sure you have) then what you are doing is a complete success
The most lovely and touching interview I have ever seen. What a lovely human being. It’s amazing how inspiring and helpful he is and what a empathetic and lovely human being for the world to have. I am so happy that he is still in this world today.
Kevin what an incredible story. GOD heard your prayer and did intervene with a Sea Lion Aka Angel. Thank you for sharing and helping us understand how to help someone who is suicidal. Please help us to help others suffering. I never knew people had instant regret. Praise GOD for the Net!! Thank you Kevin for being brave enough to be here. You have saved more lives than you will ever know. Suicidal ideation is a lie Amen.
Thank you both for the work you do! I was looking for a video of a view from top of the GGB and somehow ended up on your channel. I am glad I listened to you today, Kevin! I picked up some important points about our responsibility to fellow travelers on the road of life. Your life was miraculously saved, and now you’re saving others! Thank you! BTW, I saw that the life saving net installation on the GGB has been completed. I walked across the Tacoma Narrows Bridge last year. There were signs every few hundred feet to call a certain number if you need help. I’ve seen that sign at railroad crossings as well. I hope that people will call if they need help.
Absolutely incredible life story. I watched another interview with you and am truly impressed how you turned around your life. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge so other people make a different choice in the right moment. Your work is valuable and so are you!!!
Such a good interview. Thank you kev for everything you and your lovely wife do to help save lives. Always know I'm always here for you and I'll always lend a listening ear. You are amazing, you are loved so much, you matter, you matter to me, your story matters, and your story matters to me. Keep up the great job you're doing you got this I believe in you
Kevin, you are such an inspiration for anyone who is going through tough times. I can't thank you enough for all you invest back. This truly an amazing interview and I am glad I took the time to llisten and learn.
Thank you so much for sharing us your testimony, so many young ones out there who needed compassion and just a listening ear and encouragement,and prayers. God richly bless and protect your ministry to the needy,belpless,abandoned and hopeless. God had always a divine purpose why you experience firsthand all these trials,so that you can truly understand and reach out to all these brokenhearted young people. Loving prayers from Philippines 🙏💖🙏🏼 God is more than enough,he brings us peace,hope and love for those who felt neglected and forgotten. Through your earthly mission, They'll know God loves them and fid not leave them.❤
@j3in725 if they have a foothold in your life they can inteject demonic intrusive thoughts. It's called demonic obsession and it's one of the steps to demonic possession. Many people experience the demonic without it progressing to possession. But the end goal of all demonic presence is possession of a person. They will settle for being able to possess a place or object tho
I never understood depression when I was young. When my elderly father started suffering, I was totally bewildered because he was so loved. As I age, and as everything that I ever had was taken from me, I see poverty and loneliness looming, losing my entire family... I get it.
I got to see you in Williamsport, PA last night. Such a powerful presentation. I myself don't live with brain pain, but an uncle of mine who I was super close to did. He took his own life 15 years ago. Thank you for everything you do to spread awareness. You're saving lives and your story is an inspiration. P.S. One of my closest friends name is Herbert. It's one of my favorite names too.
Thanks for your courage and honesty. I am going through suicidal depression but I have never had the balls to attempt it, though I get thoughts all the time.
Sorry to hear about ur traumatic childhood and about your brother, Jordache, dying. Thank u for talking about mental health and depression. I’ve been there.
Mr. Hines, I just saw you for a bit today in Sonora. You are amazing. Having said that, I feel your talk is good for those contemplating suicide. For a parent who's lost a child to suicide and listening to your tiny details on "that" morning was too much for me. I couldn't stay to listen to your feelings/experience once you got on the Golden Gate Bridge. I had to leave after about 20-25 mins.
Hello, and I’m so sorry that the presentation was too much for you often those who stay till the end find the hope and light in the story. But I understand completely that you couldn’t do that given what’s happened to you and your family and your incredible and immeasurable loss which I feel so saddened by and for. I do talk a lot in the rest of the presentation about how to cope with grief from loss of a suicide. I hope your reach out anytime you need moral support. Me and this channel are here for you.
Thank you for sharing your story and your advice. I am grateful. I have been doing a better job of asking for help. I need to be better at noticing times when others are struggling.
God created all creatures land and sea Before humans. We must also cherish , appreciate and protect them as best we can as well🕊. Kevins life became a miracle of faith and hope for many, God bless his work and mission to continue saving lives all around the world. Life truly is a Gift🌈🌟🙏🏻🕊
My son took his life. I planned to take mine but got help. I have ptsd from Narcissistic domestic violence and live in pain. All I've been through doesn't compare to.the pain.of grieving my son. One day at a time. God is my comforter.
Do you still have these voices in ur head I am autistic and I have autism I had these voices in my head ❤ sorry to hear about it 😢😢😢 and I have bad days and happy days
I’m glad you survived.., I think if jumping ever single day. I have to think about my girls to keep me from it. I just think to myself it could be all over in a minute one minute and all your problems are gone
more miraculous than ufos these are the videos worth sharing on facebook. suicide doesnt discriminate age or race or gender anyone can struggle with it.
Hello kevin my name is Anjelica. Im going through lots of mental pain, I'm addicted to Xanax I'm just an emotional mess. I watched a couple of your videos I have your book. I haven't read it yet it was giving to me 6 months ago I've been so depressed i haven't read it but I will. So anyway i am having a hard time i don't feel like i can talk to my love ones, i don't need them to think oh god Angie is going to lose it. I have many of the same mental illnesses as you, i was recently diagnosed with cptsd. I really need help but I'm not really feeling like I wanna go. I know I need to go but I just don't want to. What can I do? I live in Baltimore MD and been in just about every psych ward that they have i just really don't think they help. What can I do because I'm really running out of options and I don't know how much more I can take before I break. Hopefully you get this.
I’ve always said suicide was the most selfish thing a person could do.. but now that I think about it all the time I think it’s selfish for people to want someone to be here that’s so goddamn miserable.. idk. I Just don’t know
My son, of 28 yrs, is suffering from psychosis (persecutory delusional disorder) along with a lot of anxiety. He is not yet on an anti-psychotic medication and I was hoping to find out what worked for Kevin? I know there are many different meds, and some work better for some than others, but just curious what finally worked for Kevin? This would be really helpful. You are inspiring Kevin - but you already know this. 👼👼👼
The worst thing you can do is meds. It will never help you permanently it will only prolong your progression. Meditation and time. Learning to control the human mind by actually dealing with the human experience naturally
Medication is important to manage psychosis. Different medications work differently for different people, so it’s finding the right medication. Both a psychiatrist and psychologist would need to be seen. He needs to seek therapy from a therapist who he feels he can have a good connection with so he can work on cognitive reframing to rewire his brain! I’m sorry you are dealing with this.
I survived several suicide attempts. I think about everyday. I’m thinking about it now. It is what directed me to this channel. I just want the pain to stop
Train your 🧠 🤔 If your brain has enough power to Trick you into psychosis, your brain has enough power to find said problem. It's probably a lack of empathy, understanding, and forgiveness? That created psychosis? It hurts when you need the same understanding, forgiveness, Empathy, you have been unwilling to give! Forgive others and with those forgiveness credits earned, forgive yourself! Is it as simple as the judgment you place on others You eventually place on yourself? 🤔 Today's thoughts. Love love.
Those thoughts are demons. Only Jesus Christ can deliver you from this! Jesus Christ is Lord! The devil only wants to kill and destroy you and claim your soul!
No I don’t because I get to be here and it’s a gift every waking moment. Hundreds of thousands of people have said this story saved their lives. I’m no life saver but the more people who hear the story the more people it can potentially positively affect. Thanks and that’s my only goal to help people find Hope and hopefully recovery ❤️🩹
@@KevinHinesThank you for replying and I apologize if I came across rude at all I didn’t mean it that way at all. I am a suicide survivor and your story has kept me from attempting many times since then, and for that I thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are making such a positive difference in so many peoples lives. Thank you.
@@KevinHinesI live a few miles from the Shenandoah National Park and Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia. Many many people go to the park to commit suicide and many just disappear. The exposure deaths aren't counted as suicides because I guess they just assume someone got lost? I appreciate your video and wish the mental health professionals( in my experience..) would stop treating people with huge anxiety as drug seeking or malingering.
OK but can you say that it wasn’t because you were special. It was because there was a sea lion that had had life experience of watching things die in the sea and perhaps it had compassion on its own and it has nothing to do with God but this animal happened to be in the right place at the right time. Give some props to that animal that actually saved you. I would rather see the sea lion give interview to tell you the truth.
Kevin, Satan’s given you enough hell in this life. I pray that you choose Christ, in the church of Christ. You’re only way out of this world of hell, to eternity in heaven. Godspeed! The church of Christ is thee church. There is no other church!
God created all creatures land and sea Before humans. We must also cherish , appreciate and protect them as best we can as well🕊. Kevins life became a miracle of faith and hope for many, God bless his work and mission to continue saving lives all around the world. Life truly is a Gift🌈🌟🙏🏻🕊

25:04 those are called demons. I’m glad God heard your prayers.
Can demons enter your mind?
@@j3in725yes they can 100%
@@j3in725yes. That is why we should not believe everything we think. Look up Derek Prince’s teaching from his book “They shall expel demons”
@@j3in725 If you allow them by listening to their lies. Just command them out of your mind and life in the Name of Jesus,the Son of God.

God sent that beautiful sea lion to save Kevin .
I like how Kevin Hines identified 4 power words: "I need help now." @18:55
Some sillies do it for a stunt but the pain from water impact should prevent anyone from trying.
🦢🦢👋 thanks for sharing the story .
