Welcome to my channel!
My name is Amanda. In October of 2018, I was on the ledge of a Canadian hotel room ready to end my life. While an unexpected intervention brought me down, I realized in the following weeks that I needed to make some serious changes. I want to share those changes and my process with others.
Here we will talk about mental health, suicide prevention, health, wellness, the mind-body connection and how to make the most of your life. There will be interviews with celebrities and medical professionals, song reactions, vlogs, meditations and tips for optimizing your physical and mental health.
New videos every week!

31-year survivor here and been on both sides. I agree with your assessment that the healing is an ongoing almost a lifetime.
for out of it wast thou taken; for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return❤
Well if you-all didn't know it im here to sat it there are evil people out there sorry to say not everyone feels the same about the simplest things in life ! They are haters of life itself so do not listen to negativity you will only FEED it so Feed the GOOD stuff not the evil or it will Consume you and your life! And they say these things to make you want to do it that is the point i am making !
so let me get this right, you set the camera up in the corner then had a deep breath looked at the camera and started screaming??? make sense
I'm not your father your not my son we're just two grown men saying goodbye is what they used to say to Esther other when they when they went did there stuff in the British army
I needed that……I feel that my life is not balanced at all with anything. I got a job, family, housing, but still no friends or romance. Loneliness will never leave and I feel like it will last forever. 😢
This song is inspired by the Jack Nicholson movie One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest.
I love James Arthur,muy buena reacción
I suffer with bipolar depression. Alot of Ronnie's lyrics hit close to home
The final chorus is the most important lines, "don't you keep me inside, screaming suicide" the message to voice your inner demons need to be more common and not ignored when people manage to
They all say its okay to crt and this 2024 its all okay then call u B and cheat say he was a man.
Meet the new boss Same as the old boss
The drummer is his brother
Like most women, you don’t get it, it’s not people telling men to be strong, it’s not societal, it’s not tradition it’s not gender roles, it’s biology by design. Stress boosts hormones in men, stress decrease hormones in women, it literally makes women sick. Our nature is to shield our women from stress, men are able to handle stressful situations and ask for more when our women families and communities support us, it boosts serotonin making us stronger, more courages and keeps us going. Men are no longer appreciated or encouraged and we lack that vital step in biology, hence all the depression, mental health etc. it’s a simple explanation and simple solution rooted in caveman biology from 50,000 years ago. Men WANT to protect but absent appreciation and encouragement it’s just a matter of time before they break.
I know I am late to the show (story of my life...lol). I am a prior service Navy Vet. I was medically retired from the Navy in 2006. As of this post I am 46 years old. I was in the same shoes of the bearded guy in the story. I felt like I had no one in my corner and I was on the verge of the precipice of total despair. And I know that some people can relate to that. I can't remember a whole lot of what happened but I know that the was a guardian angel watching over me. I also suffer from schizophrenia and severe depression. There are days I wonder if my life is really worth it. But I remember I have 4 boys and a wonderful wife that I have to remember. I can't be selfish and leave them behind with nothing. I am a VERY patriotic veteran and anytime I hear a song or country, whether it be a song by FFDP or Coffey Anderson, it pulls the tears from as I remember that check I wrote when I signed on the dotted line to serve our country.
A song, the poetry of which is an example of the worst of the worst self-talk, wrapped in such gorgeous driving music
They say the heros are not the ones that come back, but the real heros are the ones that gave their lives to save another
Ghost Ship
Really liked the reaction. But it’s a fact that this mindset is what made this world keep turning. We have seen over the last decade since we have feelings now how upside down the world is. We appreciate the support but hate to say y’all with feelings need to stay in your own lane. This is how the world is and how it goes round. As a sole provider to my house monetary and fix whatever breaks. It’s our job. Folks need to stop crying and keep it moving.
ah man. why did you have to react to this. Pearl Jam - Jeremy next please. 😁 Only if you're VERY VERY ready.
Five Finger Death Punch’s my second-favorite band and their music’s incredibly therapeutic for me. I also love what they’ve done for the soldiers as well. 🙏🏻🙌🏻🇺🇸🤘🏻
in my opinion the movie is MUCH more hopeful than this song. but both are excellent!
I did need to hear that. Thank you. ❤
Amanda music saves the soul.❤
I thinkn you areb scka;in
Amanda, if you don't give up, I won't give up either
And if not only the story , but your life come to an end after such thing? What if you feel empty inside , not able to love and feel the love again, dont have anything for live for? What if im so tired and hurt, that i dont wana make any comitment , any step anymore? What , if i only waiting it to end?
Your breakdown of this song was spot on.. I saw the Who twice and the energy was amazing. Great reaction! All the best to you and your cause ❤️
Rammsteins videos are always something else. The outros adding so much more to them. In this one the outro song is a version of zeit, another one of their songs and definitely worth watching next
Amanda! Would you say that depression could be invoked through grief? That same grief could push someone into a state of anger, frustration, envy, jealously? Yeah, it's taken me twenty years (and counting) to filter through the flood of emotional damage.
God your beautiful lol
Everytime i hear this song, it makes me think of the blacklist when liz and tom are being rushed to the ER
Free Palestine. ❤ 🇵🇸
It's like a left wing person cussing a right wing person over gun rights or trump lol well could be over covid lol
If I ever get married I want my first dance to be to the end of their song Symptom of the Universe. It's a shame that part is so short. It should be a whole song.
You may see it this way because you live in the mental health world. But... the reality is that most woman will lose respect for a man if he shows vulnerability in any way. So the lyrics are facts. Society looks down on men if they show weakness.
Greatest song ever written ❤
I I don't want to push it but could you react to iamjakehill - eyelids
I'm so happy to hear u are doing ok!
For anyone that feels depressed or sad at their situation in life, it could be worse, you could have been this poor soul.
idont know how im doing now with some o th estuff that just happend
Maybe the wrong time to post this, but have you seen the Falling in Reverse version of Last Resort (the Papa Roach song)?? OMG its haunting version. Dont watch till you're in a good place though.
This is terrible........................guy should wait til his voice changes before trying to sing.
Celine Dion actually covered this song. The original was done by Air Supply.
Pause it at the worst part.. ugh..
