i just wanna say i’m reading through all the comments on this and feeling so appreciative. maybe i’ve said this before but when I can tell that a certain video has resonated or hit more with the people who watch me, i just feel so excited and glad. It never stops blowing my mind how many people are out there who seem to really get what I’m saying even when i swear it’s nonsense but something told me to let it out anyway. as a person who was and still is called weird (in the bad way?) or whatever a lot, it is nice to have a place like this! so i just wanna say thanks to everyone who has commented i’ll probably read it all even if don’t respond.

The way I ran to the comment section after that moment - so precious

Drew, it honestly sounds like you’ve had somewhat of a breakthrough with your mental health with this experience. Watching your emotions play out, you got out of your comfort zone and saw that it wasn’t so bad and we’re able to pin that same feeling with other parts of your life like when you said hanging out with friends you don’t want to leave your room but if you just do it you feel better 20 minutes in and start to feel like yourself. This is huge. We’re so proud of you!!!!

The way I grinned when people cheered! Feels weird to be this proud of someone I have never met but YOU. DID. IT. and people LOVED IT! SO proud of this accomplishment!

started crying when i could hear people singing along. he doubts himself but so many people love what he does for a reason and it’s because he’s extremely talented. so good to see him have such a rewarding moment. he deserves it.

Each time you started picking yourself up after doubting yourself it really hit home as someone who is trying to be more kind to themselves. Your sense of humour, humility and honesty with your audience is really great to witness Drew. When you said "I barely even have fingers" around 19:07 😂 and the thing about negativity proving yourself wrong in that sometimes we do think way too far into our insecurities. I'm proud of you Drew, keep doing your thing. You shine ✨️

There’s so many tips and tools to taking a test and studying if you find out how you test because that is a lot of the grade anyways, is the test not all of the work But there’s some testing anxiety tips some studying tips with color coordination’s and things like that for me if it’s a multiple-choice test, I get permission to bring in a blink sheet of paper and I put that paper and I slide it down and I read the question and then I slide it down and I read it with Answer a does that fit? OK move down to be read just be so on and so forth. For me that helped me not get messed with in my mind, and I could not just look at all of them and be like oh I know the answer I would learn to think about it. Colors works for me I ramble because I’m ADHD and bipolar, and and and. There are ways around school don’t let school kick your ass. You go and kick its ass and then walk away when you graduate and say, never do I have to look back I kick your ass!

I hope that there’s a day in the future where I get to hear your beautiful singing in person Drew. I’m so proud of you for playing for these lucky humans ❤️

“It’s worth pushing through cause I feel good, I did something I’ve never done and I’m glad that I did it”- Drew Monson is so inspiring ❤️

This video was so therapeutic for me and i was not expecting the impact it would have on me. It is so wonderful to see you do something you had fear of doing. I hope you keep doing it

Something that my therapist told me when I was first diagnosed with anxiety was this. “Anxiety and excitement are one in the same. The chemicals in the brain that create those feelings come from the same place, it’s just how you choose to interpret those feelings.” Obviously that’s easier said than done to just TELL yourself that you are excited about something rather than nervous, but I find it helps tremendously when you start to feel like you’re going crazy.

I teared up when everyone screamed for him, I cried when I heard them sing his song. You are fantastic Drew!!

Me toooo

it’s crazy from an outside perspective to see you question your talent because i am such a humongous fan of your music and it seems like it comes to naturally to you. i’m so proud of you for going through with it and i hope to one day hear you perform live💚

So proud of him 😢 that performance was incredible! When I heard them cheering and singing and saying they love him I was bawling my eyes out!!!!

I cried watching you perform. Seeing you overcoming your anxiety, being brave and doing amazing things. Fellow anxious person here and I feel so inspired ❤ love you!

hearing it gave me literal chillsssss

Your dad was so right, you ARE a beautiful boy!!!! Yay Drew

I’m crying. I’m 56 seconds in and I saw that flash of you on a stage and I’m already teary. You wonderful man.

I’ve cried like 3 times already watching this. I am so happy you got to see and experience how much people love and admire you. I hope you get around to doing more shows in the future

I had a giant fucking grin on my face when you started performing on stage. You should be so proud man, your voice, the piano and your comedic timing was great. Gives me motivation to go out of my comfort zone more

I WAS THERE I SOBBED THE WHOLE TIME I WAS FRONT ROW AND MY BEST FRIEND FLEW IN FROM FLORDIA TO SEE YOU. best day of my life

drew, i literally got chills through the screen from your performance. i am so so proud of you

Seeing you preform, I straight up started crying. I am so incredibly proud of you! been watching you since the beginning and as somebody who struggles to not run out of every exit door I see, this meant so much. You are so loved and appreciated!!

drew you are so talented. don’t ever think you’re not good enough

I have to be honest I might think that and if I ever do just know that I’m sorry for not following your instructions

to hold amber is such a throwback and it’s truly a beautiful song, written by a beautiful soul. you did fantastic Drew, and i will always be rooting for you. 🖤

Your so natural on stage you don’t look nervous at all, you did amazing drew !

Watching you perform and hearing people sing To Hold Amber was insane.

I AM SO PROUD OF YOU 😭 Drew I felt every emotion with you on this journey, the anxiety, the fear, being unprepared. You completely nailed the performance by being yourself! I’m smiling so hard through this and now I feel like crying I’m so happy for you ❤

I love your dad saying “you’re a beautiful boy!”

i’m so proud of you, i shed tears watching you perform and doing what you love.

Drew, you were so great up on stage. You did amazing. Your voice is so so so good. I wish that you could see and hear yourself the way other people hear and see you.

Bawled my eyes out watching people sing along with you on stage. I am so proud of you for conquering your fears, you are truly an inspiration for me and you never fail to make me smile and laugh every time. I hope you will perform again soon. I would love to see you at least once in my life.

When you started playing To Hold Amber, I got so happy. That song has been on my Spotify playlist for years. So beautiful. Great job Drew

same!! it felt like an old friend saying hi lol. but like one you like and it’s a warm and wholesome interaction not one you think about all day after about how you should’ve done something different lol.

currently tearing up while you sing to hold amber. Knowing your nervousness beforehand and hearing the cheers for you makes me feel so proud of you. You are too hard on yourself drew. you are so wonderful, and you are so talented. I am so so proud of the things you are putting out in the world. Beautiful video. Thank you for going through with it. We love you.

I love how transparent you are with suffering from anxiety and depression and your time with grief - I related so much when I lost my dad I isolated myself from everyone for 5 years and I truly felt no one gets it. But you verbalized my feelings and helped me with my process of grief . Your music and comedy is amazing never give up🎉drew❤

Crying for you Drew!!! Hearing people cheer for you and sing along with your songs is so cool! Way to overcome your anxieties and fears of performing, you killed it!

Drew you genuinely did so well. It’s no secret that you were nervous but your performance was so emotional to watch. Growth is never comfortable but I am so proud of you

Thanks for making this drew! Seeing you grow as a musician has just been so lovely! You are a true talent. I'd love to see you live sometime. Go drew!

Drew, in watching this getting ready for my first day at my first job. I’m so terrified and almost everything and every feeling shared in this video spoke to me and makes me realize I’m not alone. Seeing you go up there and do so well made me know I’m not alone and I’m so grateful.
