There will never be another man as honest and as forward as David. I’ve been watching him for years and admittedly at times I’m saddened that I relate to him so much, simply because It’s sad to know that I feel like he does. I wonder if he reads these comments. If you ever read this David, thank you for helping make life a little better. Thank you for being strong and persisting even when you didn’t want to. Every atom and molecule that composes your body is beautiful.

Just now finding out about him. He’s awesome

I watch this at least once every week to maintain my mental health.

As an Artist and as a human being, your vulnerability inspires me.

this is so important to so many ppl including myself. embracing normality and mediocrity is a beautiful thing

Thank you for this video. I am Bipolar 1 & everything you said in this resonated with me. It means a lot to hear this from you as I am a huge fan of yours. We also have the same birthday & I , too, am a bipolar genius artist. Thank you again.

Super difficult to stop 🛑 sometimes. Being in nature helps. Chopping wood because you have to stay warm, is exhausting and brings sleep. The city is manic, Rewild yourself. The only relationship I have counted on, is with Source, I never ignore that one.

So cool you're so honest about this. When I'm manic I'm too chaotic, highly associative, constantly searching subjects, opening new tabs, getting mentally clogged. I hope you have people in your life that recognize your signs and see you for who you really are. Not just you when you are manic. And love you either way.

I think David is speaking truths about our souls that alot of us don't want to admit we can relate with everything he is saying

7 minutes ago David Choe was just a name I had heard in passing, officially a fan now.

I start therapy on Monday. I have been finding myself in manic states for about 5 days out of the week. I have been this way since 13. I am just now starting to fix myself. I have been extremely inspired by Dave. without his art, I fear I would be stuck this way forever. Thank you Dave.

good luck! therapy has been very helpful for me, so i hope it helps you, too.

Thank you David. I identify with your struggles mucho mas! What a wonderful reminder honey

Totally relatable. Thank you for sharing this.

I love all this Davis Choe content that just hit my KZread feed. Fuckin Amen, cowabunga. I like the still picture narrative. Reminds me of Tom Goes to the Mayor a wee bit.

Thank you David for this video, I deeply relate. The way you edited this.. you turn experience into poetry.

Incredible thanks DAVID

So on point and I'm leaving this comment so that I remember this video.

Thumbs up America! 2007 was a very Good 👍 year and I saw these episodes on Hulu. Very good to see you again in 2023. Much love. You are Great 👍

HALITOSIS I’m bipolar as well. thanks for your radical honesty and mad genius.

you've managed to express whats been rattling in my brain for years. good to see you back, and allowing us in

yoo I love the soundtrack you made as well. art humor hits different

I'm hooked on that exhilarating creative high, longing for its return like a caffeine addict craves their morning brew. Have you cracked the code? Or maybe I'm just indulging a slightly unhealthy obsession... As an isolated artist who surfs waves of manic creative euphoria, your videos are a beacon in my solitude. They remind me I'm not alone in this beautifully chaotic journey. Thank you for existing in this time with me.

Creatively but also personally I have been stuck in this hole of intensity and despair as my inherent mania has been seemingly ramping up over the course of this past couple of months. I needed to hear this today. Gratitude, David.

David I need more of your videos in my life. More than 3 in 8 years. So glad to see this. Love always - another Dave

He’s been making one a week!

There’s no way for me to say this without being cringe. But sometimes I feel like David is the only person that can understand me. Or that I’m similar to. Or maybe he’s just the most vocal. I don’t feel like a weird fuck when he’s rambling. It’s my own thoughts. Or very similar atleast. Always has been… for years.

this is creative genius, I am truely inspired

Well that was beautiful and it wasn’t mediocre, it was a masterpiece

I feel very similar being a artist.

this is so therapeutic for me

Dave is a true 1 of 1... an absolute original!!

I revisit this episode often since you guys put it out a while back. I guess i just wanted to get high off yesterday. Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away ....

I learned about you right after my second mayor manic episode, by that point i had lost jobs, frinds, home, i was lost I came back to new york with $400 and i found a room for rent for $100 a week, but i was resourceful, and before the first month and the $400 were over i found a job at the museum of sex on 5th ave were i found this book called snowman monkey BBQ And it changed my life for ever, the devine nonchalant, suspencion of disbelief I worship at the altar of nonesence

Not to sound crazy but the shamans in Mexico summoned you for a reason It’s the butterfly effect I would have never found out about your KZread channel! I will never ever know how low you’ve been or what you have been through on a personal level. But fuck man I resonate on a spiritual level and I genuinely thank you for being vulnerable and sharing. It takes a weight off of my soul knowing I’m not the only one. You are seriously an inspiration. I wish you peace and love.

ok this is amazing man ! Time to binge watch all of these

Great video. It really hit me deep right now. Feeling confused lately. Feels like it is getting better but sometimes feels like it gets worse in different ways too. Glad to hear somebody understands. Brain is puzzling sometimes. Feels difficult to get outside of it and look at yourself. Thanks David.

Hhaha loved the ending bro , ressssspekk

How tf does this not have more views? I’m confused

I also have the terrible gift of manic depression, this video hit me hard, it was ugly but beautiful, paradoxes. i feel like my life is a paradox sometimes with BPD, thank you for this

Feel that.❤

This is exactly how I feel.

Dave needs to get this channel verified or something. It was way hard to find

Everyday. Overflowing and overcrowding what's left up there. Like a cassette you keep recording over again and again and again and the original recording is only a whisper. Be moderate.

Wish we got these pods

Metamorphosis, can be done as many times as you want to. I hope today everyone is finding that balance, even if just for one day. It's also okay to have those stinky days too, ah stink.

David, as a korean woman, I love your voice and I use to see you on Joe rogan. But then I watched beef yesterday. It was you that I felt watching. It was great and I loved it. Thank you so much. I would love to hear your voice and acting on and on.

I have never been so excited to read someone's autobiography

wow... mindblown by you... thank you.

Read the comments, Dave. You're not only normal...you're loved, dude.

oh shit this hit my heart, as and struggling artist that is dealing with depression i can relate, damn i wish i have the guts to express like David, one day just one day😥

dave you a hero XD i so feel this shit. Brains are hard.

Funny how i started journaling around the same time you started posting these vids.

I feel this in my core. I really appreciate your work and insight. It’s just real. Thank you

Absolutely brilliant! Thanks for being real! A man with an untethered soul!

Best way to describe this video, a Manic Episode color version of La Jetée.

You are enough. 🔴

amazing

Very few times has somebody reached into out and touched me in as closely guarded a place as you just did. Thank you

Full cover of The Beatles - Yesterday please David.

Thanks. Outstanding as always

Thank you for sharing this, your not alone in this battle and unfortunately this is the heavy price we pay for our creativity.x

Thank you Dave for everything.

I just want David to do a dc comic where all the characters are just drawn as there colors with really simple designs and shapes representing the characters.

Thanks dave

All content from you is good because I just like hearing things from your perspective.

its nice to know im not alone

Keep pushing Never stop reaching for that light at the end of the tunnel. You will make it if you keep your chin high and be in the present moment. It was hard for me to get my life back in motion after a 2-3 month period in which everything crumbled down around me but being in the present staying focused on my goals for today and just being myself again was what saved me. Stay true to you Dave and keep up the amazing work! much love 🫶🏽

wow man this is the first video/solo pod I've heard from David. I hardly know much about him just that he's an amazing artist. but so many of these words I can relate to as a creative and this editing is so unique I love this thank you!

This man is such a jiu jitsu person, just hasn't realized it yet! Come on Dave, let's go!

David choe makes the best stuff, whatever he does is awesome.

Inspired now though

you’re the best thank you for this

Love the honesty & how he sees thru the bullshit & keeps it's raw. Great art ❤👍

Thank you.

this made me feel like i am bipolar bc this how i exist. david choe, ive been listening to your words as of late. i just have to say, coming from my mother who was an immigrant and everything you've accomplished in life, it makes me feel like i can be my own version of david choe one day. I am currently attending Parsons school of design in nyc and i am going down a path similar to the ones you have been through. I am 20 years old, i feel as though i have had an incredible amount of extreme experience both on the positive and negative end. consistency with anything in my life has been my biggest struggle. listening to you the past few days has started to give me hope for my future and the things i might be able to accomplish in life. I really hope to achieve what you have achieved in life and possibly more. I believe in myself more than most but often times i feel like shit about myself and it really takes a toll. idk why im writing all this, maybe so you might see it, who knows. I feel kind of like im just venting right now and it feels good. I wish there were some way for me to do an internship program with you or be able to have you as a mentor in my life. I just feel as though there are so many parallels to the way you think and act that are like reminiscent of my life and how i act. so imma j end all this by saying thank u.

You are giving me inspiration to try one more time. Thanks

Heart to heart David, I’ve been diagnosed for over a decade myself with BP 2. I can’t express to you how much I relate to this one. I know the feeling of that possession taking over. I will obsess during manic episodes and think about one particular subject constantly for a month or two and be checked out of everything else for long periods of time. They say most people with BP have ADD/ADHD, but I don’t know that’s the case for me because it’s hyper focus on one thing and nothing else, but there isn’t much for OCD traits either. Sometimes, I don’t know what I fear more, the mania or the depression. The mania feels great when it’s here, especially when you’re producing something with it, but I know that high will turn to a crash soon enough. I can honestly say there may be half a day between a peak and a low where I might be normal. It’s a straight shot all the way up and a straight shot all the way down when I’m swinging. I’m medicated, I’m married, I’m a father, I work, and just about everyday I still ask myself how in the fuck I’ve managed to actually maintain enough stability for any of it with how severe it can get despite the meds. I’m familiar with the pass, genius or otherwise, but despise the reasons they give for the pass because I don’t see value in myself worthy of any passes. Maybe this isn’t a super relevant for instance, but it illustrates the level of difference in what I see my worth as versus what others see; I locked my keys in my car one day, I borrowed a lockout kit from a coworker (work at a shop), it wasn’t working out for me, no money or insurance to pay for a locksmith or tow company to come out. I grabbed my 10 lb. hammer and put it through the rear windshield to get into my car. Every last person I work with said something along the lines of, “why didn’t you call me and ask for help?” Might think it was pride, but it was a lack of. I told them I didn’t think I was worth any of their time to come out or worth their money to have someone come out, and to be honest I’d still do it the same way if it happened again anyway because I still feel that way even though I’m on an up right now. I hear kind words, I legitimately think they don’t know what they’re talking about; because I feel like if they did, they’d think of me the same way I do. I don’t know if you’ll ever see or read this, I don’t know if you’d even have made it this far if you opened it in the first place, but it was important to me that I say something.

needed all these

That was nice

Legend 🙌

i dont know why this is great art but it is great art. like a calm summer day that is interrupted gracefully by a massive mf gust of wind blowing all the tree leaves around n stuff, chaos in the leaves and peace in the mind

I like this very much! Thank you ❤

Thank you David

really great video, man

this man has too much free time

Love ya D Choe. You are the exaggeration of all of the things I like about myself. The me God. I just wish I had your drive. Thank you for your awesome raw takes.

I feel this and I thank you! ❤️‍🩹

I needed to see this.

What the fuck did I just watch It felt like a breath of fresh air; I was looking for inspiration, but instead of it I found an answer; this is it I hope you're good bro, and if you're not, that's ok too

This has so much beauty
