I Noah Thomas, the creator of this channel, have been diagnosed hypogonadism by a medical doctor and legally prescribed the medically indicated treatment of Testosterone Replacement Therapy.
My Story
My name is Noah and on May 18 2011, I had a rare reaction to a medication called VIVITROL and consequently, spiraled into a suicidal depression with depersonalization and anxiety. I lost 25 lbs in 4 weeks and was in full panic or near panic for 8 weeks straight mixed with the darkest most painful depression I cold have ever imagined. I immediately could not work and had to move in with my parents who, along with many siblings and friends, had to watch me 24/7 as I was a danger to myself. Eventually I was hospitalized in the Psych Ward for a week. Getting through each day seemed truly unbearable and I knew I would surely die. I have been put on many many different doctor prescribed SSRI's SNRI's Tricyclics, mood stabilizers, anti-psychotics, holistic meds, acupuncture and even a form of shock therapy called RTMS. I barely saw any improvement in my condition for a full year. It was decided I had treatment resistant depression and I spent nearly every moment in tears. Weeks after starting my newest round of medications (Seroquel & Nortryptaline) as a last ditch effort, I had my blood drawn for possible hormone imbalances and my Testosterone levels came back 200 ng/Dl and 150 ng/Dl. The average 25 year old male has 750 ng/Dl. With this discovery I had an explanation as to why I was not getting better and why I might be so so sick. The symptoms of Low T are very similar to those of major depression. I started legally prescribed testosterone replacement therapy soon after and have been checking in with the world and documenting my experience with treatment as well as giving my insight and perspective on various topics of mental health. I am blessed to say that I have slowly, over the last 6 years, been improving and becoming more stable which I never thought to be possible. My low T manifested itself in the form of Major depression, anxiety, and depersonalization/ derealization for over a year. Treating my low testosterone has been 1 HUGE part of the puzzle but I have had to continue to work hard to hold on to my mental stability with many set backs. Gaining some mental stability back is nothing short of a miracle as I was near death for what felt like forever. I do not consider myself to be totally healed yet but I am closer now then ever before and aim to use what I have been through to help or at least offer support to others in need I was able to successfully come off my Seroquel and Pamelor.
I work out all the time as a part of my mental health recovery!!! Weight training and all kinds of cardio rule much of my free time and I also share this on my channel.

    One of the best videos you have ever made. I wish everyone would watch this. Then they would understand the reasons behind many suicides. I'm tired of hearing about how "selfish" suicide is, when the depressed persons intentions were the exact opposite. They quit asking for help because they didn't want to be a burden anymore. Too many people are misinformed about mental illness and your videos help.

    Having had depression for most of my life I can say that its one of the most debilitating things to have. People will always say ''im here in you want to talk'', but when you try to talk they dont want to really know. The ones that do listen, soon stop as they cant handle it or really dont care. I recently lost the love of my life due to my mood swings and low moods. Im amazed she put up with it for so long. Im at the end of the road with it now and cant go on much longer. I wish all those who also suffer the strength to carry on

    It's not that people don't want to help, it's that they do everything they can to help, and when nothing changes they just give up. It's not that they don't want you to get better, they just don't know how to help. They do care about you and they do love you, but in the end they are human and they also have their own issues, and can't spend all their time on you when it doesn't seem like you're listening to them or getting any better.

    The fact that you’re not getting better does not mean that you’re not listening or trying! People with more visible illnesses aren’t blamed for not getting better, so those with mental illnesses shouldn’t have to bear this burden of guilt or be treated like it’s a character flaw!

I still have many friends because I see them only when I am in good form and this doesn't happen very often. If you are ill what's the point in socializing? I know people with similar disability as mine and I talk to them about my health issue, not point to talk to people that are not going through the same.

    Bullshit. Then don't come helping them in the first place. He is right, the moment you reach out your hand in pain, almost everyone will try to "help" to make themselves feel better. When you don't show progress, they left you. I lost count how much I've been lying about getting better just so people don't leave me. Really, everyone. STOP PRETENDING TO CARE IF YOU JUST WANT TO FEEL GOOD AND SEEING PROGRESS. Depressed people owe you no progress show at their own healing. YOU ARE JUST CAUSING MORE SCAR, fuck you.

I'm trying, I eat healthy, I excersise...I'm trying. But I feel their rejection so strongly. I don't have access to therapy because I cannot afford it, so I find myself talking to my family and they just look blankly at me as they listen, they don't even talk back sometimes, it's like talking to a wall.

    I reached out to one of my best friends about my depression getting worse, and how I was suicidal. They told me I was throwing a pity party, and that if I wanted to get help I'd try harder, and how I'm probably not as depressed as I think I am. That ended up pushing me further towards suicide, and my depression and anxiety got so bad to the point that I couldn't sleep or get my schoolwork done. Things got to the point that when/if my friends were to ever ask how I was doing I'd always say I was fine, because I didn't want to hurt them anymore, and I still don't. This video has really helped me out through this awful time that I'm going through.

    Also (just to say something related to the video) I would say that you can also form co-dependent friendships and then when you finally do get better you go ''Well, do I even really know this person? Turns out I don't! they were just my therapist for years but I guess I'll call them friend.'' Not sure if anybody knows what I mean but sometimes this doesn't work out because you realize you don't even have anything in common. So, it's like ''what is there to talk about now that I'm okay?'' and you realize that you only went to that person as a sort of garbage dump for your feelings. It's sort of humbling and sad thing to go through.

I don't want to be a burden on people and I say things like "if I'm being too much, it's okay for you to go I understand." I understand why they're frustrated with me. I've started counciling and my psychiatrist recently diagnosed me with chronic depression, which I'm not talking medication for. I just want to get better so I stop hurting everyone around me.

    Also, understand the difference between complaining about your condition and talking about you. Complaining is staying in the same old rut, not doing anything but just venting off your negativity to others, hoping they will feel sorry for you so they can give you attention. Talking is sharing your thoughts and emotions with others without you throwing it at them. You don't infect them with your negativity, you just talk about it and try to improve your situation together.. I guess the core difference between the two is whether you try to change yourself and your situation or not.

I honestly didn't understand that when I didn't have the tools, but since I've become aware of the recovery path, I can't use that as an excuse. Peace to you and all those suffering...

    I think that the error is in the way that mentality sane people try to help, they think that to feel pity for us and to take responsibilities for things that dont correspond to their role will help us to get better, when the fact is that those actions will just enhance the symptom. What I hate the most when I'm depressed are this feeling of commiseration that prevents me from wanting to feel better, it took me a lot of introspection to realize that I love to immerse my self in my own pity and ruminating thoughts. To be honest, theres not much people who knows how to treat a depressed person. Im grateful to have someone who let me feel my depression when it hits me but at the same time gives me a good slap in the face when it's necessary.

    You are such a terrific person , Noah. I have been suffering from severe depression for about seven months now, and I have found in your videos a lot of comfort. I was mad at my siblings, who are my support team, because they were getting upset at me because I am not able to get rid of this depression, but now, I understand them better and realize that I have been such a burden for them, and they, as human beings also get tired and have the urge to feel good and my behavior doesn't allow them to. You speak so much the truth my friend, there's not a single video of tours in which I don't shed a tear at least, that makes me realize of how accurate and empowering your words are. A giant hug for you.

    It's worse living with people that are also having problems because it runs in the family. Nobody can deal with anybody & we all need help & we all just hold on so tight til there's an explosion. We feed off each other's energy. It sucks. You feel so much anger & hate directed at you but you know it isn't real but it still hurts.

    Yea I understand the feeling. With my depression I feel like I need reassurance everyday that things are going to be ok, but currently I have only about one friend who gets it and is supportive yet I don’t bother to reach out nearly as much as I want because I don’t want to sabotage the only support I have rn by tiring that person out. I simply don’t have enough of a support group. I’m trying to find support by joining forums and what not but It’s not enough. It is a daily struggle and you constantly feel like you’re never gonna make it out of this.

    It's one thing people close to me have difficulty coming to terms with. However, I use my experience for something positive and try to help the Sailors who work for me that might be going through depression. Social stigma makes it seem like depressed people are just sad, but with what I've gone through I can identify and assist others in the service to get the help they need. Noah, your videos have been very enlightening and have let me see that I'm not the only one going through what I struggle with (heck, I didn't even know that low-T levels played a part in my moods either). Keep the videos coming and stay strong! K/ Tomas

    So true!! On both viewpoints. I have been trying to remind myself of this, since right now I really only have one person I feel I can talk to. And there are times I really need to talk, but feel like, I don't want to bother him. I especially agree with that last part, the script of it. Ive had people tell me countless times how they will be there for me, yet they never are when you need them. They do, unfortunately, call themselves a friend, yet in my opinion a true friend will stick it out with you no matter what the situation. The key is finding people you can truly trust!! Though even that in itself can sometimes be difficult. Thank you for this Noah! Id like to think of your channel as somewhat of a safety net...
