Nike SB | Why So Sad? Comic | Skateboarding and Our Mental Health
Спорт
Sit back and listen to John Rattray as he reads through the Why So Sad? comic developed in partnership with Dr. Bruce Perry, Push to Heal, and the Center for Healing and Justice Through Sport.
It explores the roots of depression, anxiety, and the chronic stress that, unchecked, can lead all the way to suicidal ideation.
It does not claim to provide all the answers or solutions, but it does discuss how skateboarding, as well as sport and other rhythmic activity, can be used as one part of a healing tool-kit.
Developing a basic understanding of the physiological components of this thing we term ‘mental health’ has been a game-changer for me. I hope it can help you too.
Love to all.
- John Rattray
Note: The intent of the following story is to shine a light on recent work that helps us better understand our own mental health. With that, it touches briefly on the topic of bereavement by loss due to both suicide and alcoholism.

I wont kill myself because I have children and my life is no longer my own. But this will save lives. This makes sense. This is so smart.
You have taught me that I am actually a strong survivor.
Man the things skating has brought into my life. Thank you skateboarding and thank you for this animation. Really sheds light on some things for me…
Didn’t expect this from Nike but I applaud anything that promotes mental health awareness and discussion. Skateboarding helped me tremendously as a teen and continues to into adulthood. I consider myself extremely lucky to have such an outlet.
So heavy, and something we all probably felt, but never understood - skating is our friend, Johns rad too, obviously.
I have really bad depression and recently got back into skating 4 months ago. I skate a few times a week whenever i can. Its been helping me so much honestly. I also happen to be one of those skaters that likes nike, so thanks Nike SB. yet another reason to keep buying your SB stuff.
Story was dope. Sorry mans lost his dad and sis. Glad he found something that makes him happy.
💙 Great to listen to John narrating his and Jon’s comic 🙏 Amazing work thank you for the knowledge.
Thank you for creating this. It is so important to get the word out about mental health and trauma. As a therapist, I appreciate this. For anyone suffering from trauma, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy can be very helpful.
I was "So Sad" when i missed these 🔥 SB Dunk Low Pro two times. Love the theme. Raising Mental Health Awareness is very important today. Be kind. Listen more. Be a friend to someone struggling. Be True. I ❤️ #Nike
My partner is a doctor who specializes in NMT. She absolutely loves this cartoon. I enjoyed it as well and I am not in the field at all (but did meet Dr. Perry once 🙂). Well done, Nike!
Wow. Thanks. That will help a tone of people!
so well done. Love you Ratray thank you for this work.
This video basically explained my whole life
I want to keep this video available to me for the rest of my life. Because those days when I feel, well, like you know. This will save my life. This needs to be every where. Money needs to be spent to spread this video. It will save countless lives.
Well done. Heavy topics that need to be talked about. We include a link to this video (among others with Dr. Perry, Andrew Huberman, and more) with an on-boarding document that all school teachers receive ahead of our programs. The positive response from those who have used the videos is amazing. Great resources we could've never created on our own.💙🙏🙌
Thankyou for this gift John✌
A clear and straight-forward explanation, with heart. I think you've always had good enunciation, I cannae believe naebuddy kent fit you wis sayin'.
I love you. Got them kicks and am a survivor myself. ; ❤ ;

Living with multiple PTSD, skateboarding saved me. Overide the negative with new positive experience. The healing proces takes up a lot of time and also cost a lot of money. Your punished triple times: the traumas, therapy cost money, living off minimum because of the high costs of therapy's. I tried to hold a job, with PTSD it's a too big of a challenge and almost impossible. So pretty much your screwed. I didn't choose this for my life. Having almost no quality of life I can understand some people just check out and don't want to live. The health and wealth system of this world is not right.
SKATEDAY !!!
Skateboarding save my Nikes.
My mom and my sister both killed them selfs. 😢
🥰🥰
Yeah
Primu

You'd think if he lost a loved one while he was really into skateboarding he would quit.. but it was the opposite..
SELL OUT = NIKE

Yeahhh try having bad adhd on top of all of it. I have the worst executive functions, they do not function 😂
I feel we should talk less about mental health. The more we seem to focus on it, the more miserable we seem to become. Saying that, the entire UK seems a total basket case death cult and the Brits really seem to hate themselves.

You gotta get through the pain, not around it. We seem more miserable because deep down we all are, we were just hiding it for ages or lashing out through addiction and rage.
