This is why Andy is such a good role model to have. Yeah he admits that he’s made mistakes. But he’s such an advocate for mental health. Which turns his music into a safe space of sorts for me. Idk how to explain it.

It's so inspiring to know that Andy used to be just like me... depressed, anxious, and alone, with OCD and all the unpopular tastes and ideas. And yet he grew up to become one of the greatest men of our time. Thank you for the encouragement, Andy - I needed this!

Oh my gosh I didn't know he has OCD too! It can be so tough to have, knowing Andy can conquer it gives me hope. I relate 100% to everything to he says, he describes compulsions perfectly. If anyone else struggles with this, stay strong!

Wow. I just. Wow. Next time someone asks me why I like BVB/Andy Black, I'm showing them this is saying "other than the music, this. Just listen."

I have nothing but respect for Andy Biersack. I was one of those chubby underachiever kids who listened to metal, too. I still struggle with anxiety because of the outcast status that I had back then. The funny thing now is that I don't give much thought to my social status at all. I just try to be a decent person each day.

Sad yet remarkable story, stay strong Andy!

As a current middle schooler that is struggling with anxiety, depression, and trichotillomania, a hair-pulling disorder which is believed to be OCD related or an impulse-control disorder, this really helps as Andy shared advice that I needed to hear; at 5:45, he said that you have to make a conscious decision to get better some times, and that you need to feel the need to get better in some cases. I haven't been able to stop pulling out my eyebrows and eyelashes, but hopefully with Andy's advice, I can stop. I sincerely apologize if I shared too much or anything, and I know that nobody is really going to read this, but I needed to express my gratitude. Yet again, I apologize.

I'm kinda the same. I'm a middle schooler that's depressed, has suicidal thoughts, I pull my eyebrows and eyelashes nonstop, and have a nail biting problem. I'm also overstressed all the time and I already had to grow up. My best friend is depressed as well and I'm the type of person that will take care of other people and help them even with my own problems, so I end up pushing them to the back of my head when she has breakdowns. I also live next to a military base, so I have trouble making friends because they always PCS while my mom retired here and we won't move again. I started listening to their music recently, but it really is helping along with videos like this. They are very inspirational, and I'm really glad I found them

Don't apologize for sharing. The greater part of social media and platforms is that you can express how you're feeling and people that are similar can comment or people that have been in your position and have overcome. I am now 27 years going on 28 but I too was an anxious and depressed middle schooler that was constantly bullied. My middle school years were hell and I still deal with depression and anxiety but I've overcome a lot and I agree with what Andy said. It is a lot of times a conscious decision to either get better or stay sitting in the darkness. It does get better but it takes time and work. You have to change the way your brain thinks about yourself and really focus on becoming a better person. And never think you don't deserve something. You deserve everything and more. I hope you are doing better, I know this post was from 2 years ago but I really hope you are in a better place then where you were.

I have OCD, ADHD, anxiety, sensory processing disorder, depression, and BIID. Ironically enough, one of my OCD things is that I have to list them in that specific order whenever I say them. I was tested for autism when I was little because I was always a “problem child”. I would freak out if I didn’t have my routine, and before I learned how to channel it, I would get violent. I can’t have the curtains open and the light on at the same time. People get mad at me when I tell them not to do it. I can’t have the lights too bright. I have to do the exact same complicated regiment before bed: shower, fill my water bottle, take my meds, close the windows, turn on the lamp, brush my teeth, kiss my dog, tell her goodnight, give her a treat, use the bathroom (and wash my hands obviously), go to my room, do the same regiment with my pet rats, read for EXACTLY 20 minutes, starting and ending at a multiple of 5, double check that my alarm is on, turn off the lamp, turn it on again and off again. If even one thing is off, I’m up all night stressing. For whatever reason, it annoys my family a TON. They act like it’s not a big deal, and that I’m faking it. When I was little, my tantrums would be videoed and posted on Facebook to show how ungrateful and bratty of a child I was. I would then be forced to watch them back and be shamed for it. They would sometimes take my door off its hinges as a punishment. I also get yelled at for having panic attacks when I’m around a lot of people talking at once, and they act like it’s the end of the world when I don’t want to be touched/hugged. My parents ended up finding out that I’m severely suicidal because I kept having panic attacks in gym class, and it felt like I had something around my neck that I couldn’t get rid of. I would claw at it trying to get it off. My gym teacher, who used to be a social worker, would find me behind a wall hyperventilating during class. He ended up bringing me to the counselor, and I ended up spilling everything. My parents then searched my room for any weapons or pills or anything and found the note that I’d already written. I didn’t want them seeing it, so I grabbed it and locked myself in the bathroom (we aren’t allowed to have locks on our bedroom doors). My mother pinned me to the ground and pried at my hands until it felt like they were breaking (that might’ve just been adrenaline too though). This is the same woman who saw me doing special effects makeup for Halloween and threw a pizza cutter at me, screaming “Well you like sharp things, don’t you?” And “I DO NOT WANT TO SEE MY CHILD LIKE THAT.” My school legally required that I see a therapist to avoid being admitted to a psychiatric hospital against my will, and she prescribed me a pill that I’m still on. It’s still bad, but not as bad as it used to be.

I'm falling in love again! Thank you Andy.

It never really goes away, but you can work on it and constantly try to be better like Andy says, and you control it instead of letting it control you. What an inspiration to us all he is. On another note what a beautiful person he has turned out to be.

existential dread There is codes in our d.n.a. so we are designed by a intelligent being. An the codes say the name of our God even bro! The spirit is named Yahweh. Which is the God in the Holy Bible. An Jesus' blood was found, on the cloth they laid over him when he died, it only had 1 genome and that means that Jesus 100% was on this Earth and was born by just 1 parent! So our sins are washed by the blood of Jesus when we receive the free gift of Salvation! U get God's spirit as yr gift and heaven and eternal life in peace and estacy. Look up Scientific proof on God and how Christianity is actually the only fully correct Doctrine. God is for you and not against you, so please don't hate god because yr not believing he's for u and justs wants to make u a slave. The devil makes us a slave. Pride, lust, greed, fear, etc. Evil spirits have different traits. Like the spirit of pride is stuck up, self centered focused, driven by what it can receive, it's heartless sense pure love denies itself to love. Love just only loves to love! It's its Nature. Any questions bro?

Andy is a huge inspiration/idol for me.

You are a real inspiration Andy. Also, you are so cute😙, greetings from Panama

So damn relatable! A lot of ppl have walked the path he is on, not to say hes not forging his own, just that he isnt the first to take on the mission of being such a positive force in the world, and i almost have an anxiety attack every time i think about it. Because i believe so much in what hes doing, and im just waiting for the other shoe to drop. Waiting for him to give up. Abandon everyone, like others who have been on that path. I hope so much that it never happens. I hope he knows how much his messages mean to ppl. That he never feels like hes not reaching enough ppl, or not impacting them deep enough. Or if he does, that it just makes him try harder, and not loose hope. Because the day that he gives up, is the day a lot of other ppl do too. Its a huge cross to bear, but he chose it, and i hope he knows the responsibility he took on with it. We love you Andy. Dont break our hearts brother.

Props to you. Awesome!!

It's not abnormal to feel the same way Andy does because the way society is they want everyone to think the same,know the same things, and function the same that's why when you try to break out of that cycle you might get labeled crazy and what I mean by that is it's like your not supposed to have a choice your supposed to do what your told and that's that and if you don't people are like what the hell then label you like oh they're just nuts which is why artists that do their own thing (make their music and don't conform with the way society is) are so inspiring!!! Its good to know I'm not the only one who feels that way😍❤ Love you Andy #BVBArmy 🤘 (If you actually read this long ass paragraph random person thx)
