hey loves,
first i'd like to thank you all for watching this video. i have recorded many other depressive episodes wanting to connect and reach out but ended up deleting all the footage every time. there wasn't much to show anyways cuz i literally just recorded me laying in bed LOL but this time was different, i fully opened up to the camera about my disorder, and actually came to terms with it, fully. uploading this was not an easy step for me to take, i've actually sat at my computer for hours debating whether or not i really wanted to share this, but i do.
there are countless other stories and experiences out on the internet that offer way better advice and are arguably more interesting. it may seem like i'm beating a dead horse, but in my own little world, in my own community, i wanted to provide my personal experience in hopes someone will confide in it.
even if no one has expressed it to you yet, it's important to remember that your feelings are valid, you are of value, you are not insane, you are just going through a difficult situation, and you will be even stronger when it is over. as long as you keep fighting, you will beat your depression.
thank you for being here :)

    its been 8 years for me...this past year was the best and the worst at the beginning the best I ever felt traveling enjoying life then a couple of stress and traumatic events now back at major depression.I used to be strong and deal with it because it was my "normal" but after the light I reached this year I can't believe Im in this darkness again.I also deny it and others gaslight it too

    I was really shocked it took me this long to realize and unlearn the stigma put in my mind by others. Despite knowing that their thinking was misguided, I found myself entertaining the same thoughts. You’re definitely not alone!! I’m glad I’m reaching those who are going/went through something similar :)

    hey! i found this during a depression episode and at a time where i could use this as part of a project / assignment in school! i wanted to formally ask your permission before i went forward. technically, i am using this video as a source as to what it's like to live with depression / mental illness to back up the themes of the two things i'm comparing (hi ren by ren + "i made a new friend" by nicole kyler). seeing someone deal with the things that so many of us do and to show that there is always a way up is so inspiring for myself and so many others

    After so many episodes, I learned to let it be. Your body is literally telling you and going through what it needs. It’s not wrong. Those episodes are not a downfall but your mind and body reacting accordingly to something. As a perfectionist, it’s taken me long enough to STOP. Literally fall and let me. Let me be until I understand what’s going on. Focus on what I can do only. Sometimes it’s nothing. I can’t do anything. So I do nothing. Unfortunately that’s not feasible for everyone therefore your mental health can get worse. But really be your friend and hold your hand. If you are going up and down. Go ahead.
