700 and 12.

In 2008, I found myself on the other end of a suicide attempt because my world had came crashing down. I spent the next few years trying to figure who I was, what I valued and why I was acting the way I was acting. Then, in 2010, I listened to Conan’s Dartmouth commencement speech and so much fell into place. In all sincerity, it brought tears to my eyes because of what he said and I still go back to it 12 years later. He’s a comedian, but he’s a very wise and thoughtful person underneath the jokes. Even though I doubt I will ever get to tell him this in person, I do owe a lot to him. Thanks Conan.

Proud of this entertainer making it through.

I kick myself for not being a Conan fan back in his early years. I’m glad I have become one in the last 5-6 years. Conan is the most humble, down to earth comedian out there, besides Jon Stewart. And he consistently gets better. The fact that he answers questions openly and with compassion and awareness makes him even more awesome.

Jon Stewart Shout Out!

Conan's show was the best late night TV ever.

I agree for sure. There's always a degree of doubt or insecurity no matter how far along you get, but your comfort level and how you handle the doubt gets better with routine, repetition, reflection, improvement, and determination. Your biggest "opponent" is truly yourself, and you'll get better at handling yourself with time, just don't quit.

Every time I hear a high profile person be open about their insecurities and how getting help is crucial, I am very grateful. Doing a real community service here, ask for help, everyone needs it at some point. Better off going to therapy or chatting with a doctor than living with crippling anxiety, depression, or self doubt.

I loved Conan growing up. The thing is as kids/teens we didn't have that expectation of him being the next Carson. He IS our Carson. Conan and Letterman and Jon Stewart were my heroes growing up and going into my 20's and 30's. Just three awesome and good dudes to look up to.

Honestly, Conan has brought me out of some really dark places in my life on more than one occasion. I'm thankful for him and what he brings us.

If you had told me in 1993 that Conan would be giving some solid advice for finding happiness in life in 2022...I'd never believed it, but here we are.

Oh Lord I love this man so very much ❤️❤️❤️

He is so special, kind hearted & genuine! Love Conan.

One of the many reasons why I enjoy Conan so much is that he has always been genuine, rather than trying to be some other persona on TV. He has just been himself, letting his innate humor and excellent interviewing skills entertain people for decades. I remember his first couple of seasons hosting Late Night, when he seemed a bit insecure and uncertain about the future of the show. He included some of that sentiment into the comedy of the show, and I greatly respect Conan for being transparent about his insecurities and being so open with his audience. His authenticity and vulnerability instantly made me a fan of the show, and I have immensely enjoyed every iteration of Conan's television shows ever since he premiered in 1993.

Conan is such a good soul. Just a good hearted man.

I genuinely love Conan! He is thoughtful, kind, ridiculously smart, and so funny it hurts!

Been a fan since his late late night show used to stay up tp watch it after letterman. Hes such an inspiration and open about his struggles with depression.

if they mated was so ahead of its time

There's a reality to dealing with insecurity and self-doubt that most people are never told. The reason you feel that way is because it's the truth and part of you knows it. If you want to end that feeling and find confidence in yourself, you have to convince that part of you that there's a reason to be confident. This means you have to prove your self-worth to yourself. You have to make good decisions, you have to do well at things worth doing, and you have to be willing to fail, get up, and try again until you succeed. That's it, that's the secret. Get uncomfortable and do the hard work of actually improving yourself. And be damn grateful you have that part of you that's willing to be honest about who and what you really are, not everyone has it.

@@DiscoFang Yeah, when someone thinks the answers to their problems lie outside themselves, it's a sign that they aren't taking ownership of them.

We can't shift the burden of the responsibility of that weight, no matter how much we try.

Imposters Syndrome is real, even among the best.

Awww love you Conan!!! Yes medication, support, therapy!!!!!! Healing is happening :))))))

Conan’s advice is awesome, and one thing regarding the whole eternally-self conscious thing. I see that as a positive because then you can always be on your toes instead of always being at 💯 that would be so unrealistic.

And he came to be one of the best (if not THE best) late night hosts of television history. I'm also glad that he's so open about therapy and medication, because those things do save lives

One of the great things about Conan is just that he's a decent human being.

As an anxious person knowing it will never go away is kind of comforting. Thank you Conan. I know I'm not alone.

We love you Conan. I just got a new job in a leadership role and doubts/insecurities come to my mind all the time. Listening to you brought tears to my eyes 🥲

self doubt is you best friend in life don't try to lose it. it keeps you motivated to be better and down to earth, we need more self doubt these days

Conan's been a hero since I was a kid and he had that cartoon intro. Long time. I remember pimp bot.

Conan is so wonderful

It is here Conan transcends into a proper professor, his fans into pupils, and everyone lends an ear to a proper sage's advice on life. I don't think he knows how much it means to some of us, who have been following this man since the early 90s. We have grown up on him, he has shaped our sense of humor in life and by extension what and whom we find funny. And quite frankly, as an adult in a new career field, I still needed to hear it.

This was super great to watch - thanks Conan for being so open about this subject.

Much like Conan wished young comics told him earlier on he was an inspiration, I wish Conan spoke sooner about therapy and medication sooner. I'm sure it'd help a lot more people who feel the same way get the help they need faster.

Hey Conan, I was one of those 90’s kids who watched your show and felt it resonate. I think your sense of humor had a tremendous impact on the shaping of my own. Silly, irreverent, honest; these are the comedic tastes that now reside in me. Also, I too have been plagued by self-doubt and low self-esteem. It has gotten better with age, but like you said it never goes away. As a therapist once told me (of my struggles with OCD), you never get over it, you just learn to live alongside it. Keep doing your thing Conan, and we’ll be there watching and listening!

It's always nice to see mental health treatment being a thing not just for you and me, but for famous people and let's be honest almost anybody as well. Apart from that - bet sb already wrote this quote down here anywhere (I don't even know who said it, but): "One of the world's major issues seems to be that critical thinking, reflective and considerate people tend to be overly self-critical and timid often times, while you know all the brain-dead, ignorant zombies speak out with overconfidence all the time." Sth like that.

Serious Conan is my second favourite Conan. Behind Conan Gray of course.

He seems really humble
