Oh and another myth is that depressed people are ALWAYS sad. They can still be happy if they see an adorable puppy or taste their favourite food or hear a hilarious joke. The problem is there are still dark intrusive thoughts in the background of your mind when you're in your happy moments. For instance just the other day I was thinking to myself "Hey. I could really go for some cheetos right now. You know what else I could go for? A shotgun in my mouth". It permeates your consciousness to the point that it seems normal to you. You can seem happy because you're just that used to it.

Very very true. Two years ago I had a very deep depression with anxiety crisis, I got medication and therapy and I can say i'm healthy. Now looking back I have been chronically depressed most of my childhood and young adult life, I was just adapted to it! I swore I was fine and normal. Now that I experience a happy life I can tell the difference. That is why depression is so dangerous for the one who have it chronically. You don't notice when it is back.

Catch_Me_If_You_Can Trust me dude, I'd love it if it worked that way, but it doesn't. When you're depressed, you reach a point of complete and utter apathy. You stop caring about everything and everybody. I had someone who loves me who I loved back and I still tried to off myself. I have family that cares and I still tried to off myself. Depression isn't just situational, it's chemical. Like it's a debilitating disease. PS I love cats, but I can't have one because my dad is severely allergic to their spit (and they lick themselves a lot which makes it worse) so we have a dog instead.

Social support and love won't cure mental illness, but it does help.

It COULD help, but it also couldn't. Someone with anxiety might feel as though people are lying about it, or that they don't care. That's the struggle I face everyday. I try to avoid social interaction as much as I can, and there is probably only one person I feel actually cares about me, and me getting better. So in some cases, it DOESN'T help. It really depends on the person

No one ever cares until you're on the brink of suicide or you're physically harming yourself, and that's a large part of the problem with how we see and treat things like depression. Until you're hurting yourself or trying to end your life, people brush it off and think it's not serious, or not real. We need to stop viewing depression as suicide, because that's not what depression is. Suicide is the result of depression that's gone unspoken of, untreated, and ignored for too long. There's a huge problem with how our society views mental illness, and it's only making things worse. We seem to be getting better about it however, and I'm hoping we continue to.

Aw... I was hoping you would bring up about mental hospitals. I have met so many and heard from even people I don't know, that they are afraid of seeking help from a mental hospital. Like if they are suicidal, they won't even want to be taken care of at hospital because they imagine a mental hospital like the horror movie-kind of ones. They imagine that being there would make them feel worse and that they will be tightened by belts, wich is EXTREMELY rare. I feel like the stigma around it makes people feel so unsafe that they are even willing to feel suicidal rather than seeking help for it. I think people who has been treated well during their visits to mental hospitals needs to spoke up more. Like me for example. If the ambulance wouldn't have insisted on coming to get me and let the mental hospital take care of me, I would probably be dead by now. Since mental illnesses awareness is rising, the healthcare has become more like experts on the subject and has evolved incredibly!!! You get treated like a real human being and that is super important.

I have had depression and anxiety my entire life, and even my parents had called me the "depressed kid" or the "anxious kid" when I was little. Of course they understand better now, so that doesn't happen too much anymore. Just don't do it, call people by their names, it's not that difficult.

I'm actually glad this was brought up. My teacher, who was worried about me, suggested we go to the counselor's office. She introduced me as such. "She's a very bright and talented girl, she sings and everything... *she's just struggling* ." The thing is, my school counselors are severely underqualified for handling students with mental illnesses, and I spent several hours in there trying to convince them I was not the overly suicidal person they were making me out to be. I was just honest and admitted that yes, at times, I thought about dying. When my mother got there, they began lying to her, describing crap they didn't witness. "She was found wandering the halls... she didn't seem like herself..." In actuality, I was just in front of the library, about to go in, when the teacher noticed me and said hi. It was a very unpleasant afternoon, and my frustration at missing valuable class time didn't make things better. They kept telling me to calm down, even though they were so obviously the reason for my duress. After all that, I was forced to go home early, and it made me think that the road to hell truly is paved with good intentions. I bear no ill will against that teacher. She only wanted to help. It's more the incompetent circus of "counselors" in the front offices who don't view me as a high performing student WITH depression, but a depressed student. They've done more harm than help, but appeared genuinely annoyed when I made it clear I didn't trust them, couldn't trust them, and would never trust them.

Regarding the idea that love and support are an absolute cure for things like depression, they only make me feel worse. I feel like I don't deserve people's attention, let alone love and support. So when people act like they care, it makes me feel guilty for simply receiving their attention and concern. I feel like I don't deserve it and that I'm being a nuisance (more than I usually do anyway) by concerning them. I honestly feel better when people don't act like they care, although I will undoubtedly find something else to make me feel like everyone thinks I'm an irritating piece of shit. Fun times, guys.

actually, a lot of autistic people, myself included, prefer identity-first language. i personally prefer it because person-first language, as i see it, attempts to separate the person from the autism, which in the case of autism, isn't something that's truly possible due to the nature of autism. and while allistics (non-autistics) may need reminders that i'm a person, i'd say that's not something you can fix by switching up your word order. autism is a pervasive neurological developmental disorder: it permeates all aspects of how i think and perceive the world. there is not a non-autistic person inside an autistic one, as many organizations such as autism speaks would have you believe. our brains are fundamentally different, and attempting to change that would change who we are. this isn't to say that all autistic people prefer identity-first language, but many do. i also disagree with this video's suggestion that autism is a mental illness: it isn't, it's a difference in how the brain and nervous system work, and while it can be disabling in a world designed for people who are allistic, to me, it's a difference, not a defect. sure, things like comorbid conditions, as well as actual aspects of being autistic such as sensory processing issues can make life more difficult, to me it's part of who i am and how i experience the world.

If I didn't do the work, she threatened to delete all of my work. I was in a mess that year. Now she continually harasses one of my friends, and every time I tell school staff, they do not believe me due to being a teacher's assistant for the principal and having excellent grades. What should I do?

My mum has bipolar. These are the most commander things I hear when I tell people: "Oh my god does she hurt you?" "That must be a lot of stress." "Are you okay?" "Does she have friends?" "Does she live at hospital?" (Me: "WTF no!") "Do you?" "It might pass down to you." "Come talk any time, okay?" "Your lying, you just want attention." (Me: "Well screw you to!") "She'll get better" ("Mate she's had it since her twenties. Come on.") "Oh okay" People are jerks :-:

that last part, about debating whether or not to tell the person their diagnosis is quite interesting. I bet it is actually quite helpful, even more so in the younger population, where they might be a little more prone to falling victim to the "self-fulfilling prophecy". Perhaps a video detailing the differences between the American System and European system? I feel like the European system is probably more effective and humane.

i heard later about multiple of my therapists who would discuss if i maybe had x mental illness or y mental illness (in the end nothing has been diagnosed yet, after literally half my life in therapy - mostly due to age and stigma) but never told me: and maybe you think its a good thing but for the longest time i thought i was literally going crazy and that i was in treatment for nothing despite a lifetime of red flags, because they felt like they didnt want to tell me. i even tried quitting therapy a few times only to end up mutilating myself and attacking others because i became convinced that what i was doing was normal and there was nothing wrong with me. plus i have been diagnosed with 2 developmental/learning disabilities and it was helpful in the sense to learn my symptoms so i can see where i need help/to improve on a daily basis and in that sense have me be more independent... imagine if i had to go to a check up weekly so i can describe vaguely some symptoms of dyslexia, be confused and angry at myself for "being stupid", have no self confidence about it and have to sit there so i can get support needs called up behind my back. thats a pretty big violation of human rights in my opinion

omar vazquel from taco bell Yeah, I'm sorry, I was in Kind of a rush. But why is "called" wrong? I asked about the past, so it shouldn't be "call"

Don't call me a person with autism, call me autistic. It's not a detachable part. I would not be anywhere near the same person if I was not autistic. If I didn't have depression, I would just be me but happy. Autism is something integral to the person and not just a few symptoms on top of someone who would otherwise be typical.

I struggle with depression, and way too often I hear “Oh, but you’ve been so happy!” or “You never looked depressed!” or “We’ve all been depressed at one point. It’ll pass.”. Well, there’s a thing called “Hiding my depression so that no one will think I’m weak!” or even “Hiding my depression so that no one will think something is wrong!” Depression cones in phases and strengths. One day, it might just be manageable. But other days, it could completely blindside you and cripple you to the point where all you want to do is hide from the rest of the world. It’s hard to deal with. Also, I heard that piano version of “Spice and Wolf”, don’t think you’re slick. XD

If I want to be honest with myself, I have considered that I might have depression... but I can never think of any logic that proves that I am. I don't want to put a strain on everybody around me if it's not true, but I always feel the slight sense that I might be true. The future is looking anything but bright, in the can never seem to find the Secret, if there is one to learning to make good art as well as animate it, specifically cartoon and anime like, is what I want to be able to make. I do have a story that I've been working on for 3-4 years now and that's how I would like to show it... but even if I get past the ability to make it the already existing fear might grow that no one will like it, or understand it without me saying what it is about, I feel that stories are more impactful that way.

The label thing bothers me a bit. I like to organize things into categories, so having a name for my problems is both helpful and interesting, and i get frustrated with people who say "don't label yourself" and stuff like that. I know that's not the case for all people however. And of course I get pissed off at people saying variations of "just get over it." Do you seriously think I'd cry uncontrollably in public if I could prevent it? It's distressing and embarrassing. Of course I wouldn't! Also, autism itself is a neurological disorder, not a mental illness. But it's usually co-morbid with mental illness of some kind.

It took me years to tell my friends about my struggles. It's hard dealing with the misconceptions about mental illness but some Australian schools are starting to teach it now and I was really happy to hear that. We don't need people to be able to comprehend what goes through our heads, just to be aware it's there, continue life as normal and if we start withdrawing just understand sometimes we can't help it. That's how I see it at least. My friends don't see my BPD as a label, they see me as me

The third one really hit me because I honestly have a great support system and I feel bad every second because I feel like I shouldn't have depression and anxiety and my brain keeps telling me I'm faking it, even though I got a professional diagnosis and I KNOW I'm not, but my brain won't stop telling me that.

very important video, thank you for making it! however, one note. 2:49 mental illnesses are very very rarely 'fixable', it's something you learn to live with, recover from, and it continues to be part of your life even though at times it seems to have disappeared but the likelihood of it reappearing gets higher and higher the more you experience it. that's especially the case with depression and anxiety disorders. just a little thing, but language is powerful and can be misconstrued. anyway, thanks again for the great video!

Everyone's talking about seeing therapy, I haven't seen a therapist at all, I've dealt with this anxiety shit for a long time and it's ruined my life because I can't talk to the doctor because I feel to scared too. It's mainly my feeling of feeling like I'm dead, I'm still breathing but I'm dead, I'm sleeping, I'm dreaming (depersonalization) It really is hell though..people say to ignore it but I really don't know what to do anymore and who will actually take me seriously..

If you're older than 14, I believe, you're legally independent from your parents in terms of the privacy of your mental health records. This may differ state to state, but when I was seeking therapy, this is what I was told. I would do some research and see what the laws surrounding the privacy of your mental health records are for your state specifically. If you're financially dependent on someone who will not allow you to seek treatment, there are a multitude of online support groups that you can look into for non-professional support. Stay strong, friend. If you ever feel like you're a danger to yourself, get somewhere safe and around people who will take care of you. If you're ever unsure of who will help you, there are many, many crisis hotlines that you can call. Even 911 will help you through a mental health crisis.

@missymani

7 жыл бұрын

Luna, I really really hope you can read this...Anxiety doesn't get any better without treatment. Because it is not a choice, you brain actually needs specific chemicals. the treatment can help you to produce it naturally or they can give you medication. Which is the best thing that can happen to you. I recovered form anxiety and depression and I'm sure that I could not have done it by myself. During my first appointment I was scared to death and I just wanted to run from this. But it saved my life and was the bravest thing I have done to date. Please seek help, the pathology is not going to go away, you will just adapt to it. You don't need to suffer.

my mum has always been supportive when it comes to my mental health but she'd sometimes say that i get weird thoughts in my head because i'm just bored & do nothing. while it's often the other way round - i sometimes can't function normally because i feel down even though i'm trying to. the last time i had so much on my mind but intrusive thoughts still managed to make a way into my head. also, my therapist never really diagnosticized me with a specific disorder. i thought it was weird at first but i'm glad to see that she's actually doing the right thing. diagnoses were made up by people for classifying certain symptoms as something but you can't sum up evetyhing that's going on in a person's mind & soul with just 2 or 3 words. about the love thing, it sure helps having support but it really takes time for a person with mental illness to feel loved & accepted.

"Just be happy and forget about it all" Uhh shit okay, "lmao"? Do I sound happy now, Jennifer?

One of the hardest parts of mental illness I've experienced is not believing I actually have mental illness & believing/wanting to buy into the notion that it's not real. I'm a man, and men should be strong and cope. It's sometimes much easier for me to believe I'm being soft and need to toughen up in these particular moments than it is to accept that immasculating weakness in myself.

I had gone to multiple therapists myself. Some see me as angry, sad and etc....but in the end I was diagnosed with anxiety and bi-polar disorder, which runs in my family. I had decided not to take medication for it, but now, I know that if I feel distressingly upset, I take a 'day off' and give myself some time to recover. Trust me. This works. If you're ever in a situation where you feel you may cry, take deep breaths and think about where you are at the moment, what it smells like, where your feet are and how much pressure you're applying to them. Things like that, try them ^-^

My best friend and I both have severe anxiety and even though it sucks, having another person who understands exactly what we're going through is really helpful. We always stick together at parties and stuff in case one of us has a panic attack and we help each other prepare for stuff that triggers it 😌

Great video! I love how you used Spice and Wolf for the music, it's one of my favorite animes.

you know it really hurts when people call you an attention seeker or someone faking they're depression. people don't understand how much those words really hurt

There are people who use mental illness for attention even when they don't have a mental disorder. I hate it when someone is using mental illness to lie and make people like them more and it really offends the people who actually HAVE a mental disorder! I have ADHD and I still have some problems today like having suicidal thoughts and feeling uncomfortable. It really offends me when people say that they have ADHD because they space out a lot. That's not what ADHD is really about. ADHD is a mental disorder when a person who has the disorder has serious trouble paying attention, but that's just ONE OF the signs! They can procrastinate, have disorganization, depression, anxiety, and etc. So if you claim that you have ADHD but you don't procrastinate and you are organized...then you need to check again because it is very unlikely that you actually have it.

It seems like everyone has depression and anxiety.. Unless you're diagnosed, please stop complaining because you're making people with an actual mental illness look bad and not taken seriously.

Brandy Reyes I one hundred percent agree with you! I have some mental disorders myself and the more I try talking about it at times, my friends thought I was an attention seeker. To be honest, the more people who actually say I have it and it's so called self-diagnosis is ridiculous. They can say what they want and I'm not saying all do it or know what their doing. Maybe some can't get help or properly diagnosed as well. But a Mental Disorder isn't anything to take lightly. It's rather harder than people say it is.

I went to a therapist and she really helped me on the way to accepting life how it is and becoming better at social events:) I'm really glad I went and stopped going a few months ago and I'm still not feeling great but I'm doing so much better.

I am autistic. and watching this has helped me see my mental illness in a new light, and has also reaffirmed some things I've learned from my family and therapists and helpers I've had in the past. I'd also like to point out that having a mental illness doesn't mean your not going to get far in life. I've graduated High School with my peers, I've managed to hold a job for 1 year without any special accommodations, and I've been taking college classes for 2 years now and have received good feedback on most writing material I've written for my classes. What I'm saying is that even though the effects of a mental illness can be everlasting (and it still is for me in some ways), with the right help and guidance a struggles mental illness can be concored.

Dealing with friends who "thinks that you are part of their friend, but they don't talk to often"?

I've been diagnosed with depression and anxiety, actually, I've been taking medication but it just doesn't help me. I've been dealing with this for years by myself, and it's hard to do it alone. Why? I felt like talking with a psychologist was not helping me (it makes me feel more anxious, it makes me feel... bad). I still don't know what will help me. Thanks for the video!

Which then causes me to go through a psychosis episode that makes me even more worse than i was before. Nothing seems to cure the mental illness and it sucks. I really hate it when people also fake it to get attention or to use as an excuse not to work because people like us who are really ill have trouble getting the support we need to help us live without getting any worse. It sucks tbh. I hope you keep going a keep strong. You are not alone

This is actually one of the most reassuring videos, as someone who has multiple illnesses and has been diagnosed yet still has parents who dont believe in them.

I remember my parents saying that a positive mindset will get me out of depression, and I that it's my fault for not being so sensitive and not being strong enough, that I should be happier and that I just have depression and panic attacks because I wanted to and I didn't do anything to help myself. Then they'll say that they done nothing but support me. This made me regret going to them and asking them for help, I decided to act fine and stop going to the crappy psychiatrist they picked out for me that sees me as nothing but a mental illness and tried to deal with it myself. It was so scary and no one was there with me, and it's still scary till now... I'm not saying this because I want attention but I'm just putting it out there that a lot of people are suffering from something and who could understand us better than people who are going through the same thing

Both me and my parents have moderate to severe depression (i also have anxiety), but we are doing our best to treat it. Luckily, my parents have been encouraging me to go see therapists and talk to my friends, plus they understand that I just can't simply stop thinking about it since they go through a similar thought process. Although it gets really rough sometimes, especially when someone we know passes away, it usually helps us get closer together and seek help.

As someone who spent time in a psych ward as a teen I don't buy the "They aren't violent" statement.

You also have to take in the environment. TBH, I felt like I was being treated like a prisoner. Or that I had done something wrong when I was taken to a mental ward. I was only 13. Heavily bullied. Told some school counselors something I shouldn't have and they threw me in a building. They locked me away and treated me like my illness was a problem. And it didn't work. You just felt locked up and isolated inside. All the explosive energy from my illness came out in waves of frustration. TBH. I think all that aggression comes from the environment not the person. Because I am nowhere near that aggressive or explosive in my safety zone.

I like how you used a piano version of the main theme from Spice and Wolf for the music. I love that anime so much!

I told my mom about my mental illness and she just said stop saying that you have social anxiety if u say it it becomes true. She basically said that I didn't have it but if I stop saying it, the problem never gets handled and it becomes ignored until it worsens

I may be suffering from anxiety, but I am not sure if I really am or not. I often get it during the day and when I'm around people, but it can happen at random times as well. One time I was playing a game of cards with my grandma. I was happy, but after awhile playing I started to feel very anxious. I can also feel anxiety when I'm trying to sleep and eating my favorite foods. People whom I've told that I feel anxiety often suspect that I'm faking it for attention. I am not. I do feel anxiety often, but I would rather have a psychiatrist identify me with having the mental illness of anxiety rather than self-diagnosis myself with it. I'm going to see a therapist soon and I just hope to find the help I need there.

my mind over the years just thinks " don't say you have it because they won't understand" and I often tell people to leave me alone and to f off because they annoy me so much about it and other things like guessing I have things without asking.

Little Girl: What’s on your arm? Me: They’re battle scars. Little Girl: You fought in a war? Me: Yeah. A long and hard one. Little Girl: That’s so cool! Can I get one? Me: No. Please do not ever get any. But I’ll tell you what. Whenever you see someone else with battle scars, I want you to hug them, okay? Can you promise me? Little Girl: Yes. I promise. A few days later we went on a short shopping spree. Suddenly the little girl let go of my hand and ran up to another random teenager. Teen: Why are you hugging me? Little Girl: Because... (*points*) you have battle scars just like my babysitter. The teen looked up at me, and I rolled up my sleeves to show her. With tears in her eyes, she said one thing to me... Teen: My war is far from being finished yet, but I’m not done fighting. She bends down at eye level with the little girl Teen: Thanks for giving me the strength to keep fighting. You are forever my war hero this is not my story, but I wanted to share this

I have 3 different types of mental illnesses , depression , anxiety and bulimia ... People are so horrible when it comes to myths and silly comments , it's a disease of the mind

Were you actually diagnose? Anyone can say they have a mental illness...

this made me really happy and i love it, thank you and keep it up!!

I love that you used the spice and wolf opening for the musix

I do think there's some definitely misdiagnosis and plain assholery going around. Like there's no way in hell that 1 in 35 kids is autistic. Or that 1 in 100 kids has ADHD. I'd say some people have bad parents, some people are jerks, and some doctors are trying to push pills. Now that being said no one is saying that mental illness isn't real. But far too often I've seen some shitty kid in the grocery store grabbing stuff from shelves, hitting kicking and biting. Screaming at the top of their lungs. And the parent just sitting there on the phone or something. And then if someone says something about it. "My kid -insert bullshit- and they can't help it."

Broken Quill92 I agree. When I was younger a doctor told my mum I was autistic because I was uncooperative and when he found out my brother's autistic, he said it's genetic and I probably had it too, so I should get screened. I'm not autistic, I was just a normal kid who was shy around adults and that's apparently autism now

BabyBeetroot I'm sorry to hear that. I was dangerously misdiagnosed. I had a brain tumor. And every kept saying I was faking headaches and acting weird for attention. Turns out brain tumors even non malignant kinds make you act weird.

Yeah, misdiagnosis is terrible, but you know what's about as terrible as a kid without autism getting diagnosed? A kid with autism who doctors refuse to diagnose because they haven't been around the kid long enough to know that they do have repetitive behaviors. That kid is ME. I finally got diagnosed for my birthday though so now I can finally get help :D

+BabyBeetroot same they put me in a school where i am followed by teaching assistants it is really uncomfortable and embarrassing i just want to fit in. i've never had an outburst like other autistic kids in the school plus i coped with any lessons in primary school and whenever i have lessons on my own. i act like any other kid at my school. still they misdiagnosed me since i had other illnesses like misophonia-which has had very little research on itself so they just put medication down my throat.

I was misdiagnosed with depression for years before we actually found out I had bipolar 2. It is so dangerous to just slap a label on someone just to push them out your door. I also hate that parents use the autism or adhd excuses for their children's bad behavior. Most of the kids I have met with autism or adhd are actually very sweet and well behaved children.

Nice doodles.

All my "friends" say I am an attention seeker. I'm now afraid to talk to anyone without thinking I'm just bothering them or just getting too much attention.

I have anger issues, anxiety and thought to have depression. This video is very accurate, and I feel for those who have to have these illnesses.
