wow, love that guy
Absolute legend Kev
Sincere man which is really devoted to his work of saving people on the edge because he seems to understand what pain is.
Oh what a coincidence that Jacinda Adern will not acknowledge New Zealand suicides & therefore does not acknowledge global suicides!!!!
Thank you for making another day!
You are a beautiful human Mr. Hines, I am happy you are alive and telling your story to everyone ❤️ 💙 God bless you.
I survived my suicidal attempt 18 years ago. I am so grateful that I didn’t die even though I became paralyzed. By God’s Grace, my mental health is excellent now. If you are depressed, I hope you will not give up, it’s a treatable medical condition. If I can recover, anyone is able to potentially.

Amen Kevin Hines. Thank you for fighting and winning. Thank you for giving me hope.
Kevin I’m glad you’re still here to tell your story. I hope more therapists get training
Here's a message just for today. WE still need you. Yes, it's about coronavirus. That does not mean not fighting suicide. They go together. What does it add up to not to obey the CDC? How do we know that no coronavirus death numbers contain suicide numbers? Call Dr. Vuong, call Dr. Phil, call Dr. Oz. Please.
I really agree with your technique.I have been having problems getting a job.I get my parents telling me it's mostly my fault.My reaction is saying erational things.But I have enough pride in myself to fight it off and I keep moving forward.
GREAT ANSWER
All I can say what a great man. So glad you survived. You have saved many lives from what you're doing. Good luck buddy.
God how lucky he was to not only live but also be able to walk and not be wheelchair bound. I'm glad too, he seems like a good guy and he has helped me better understand how to master my mental health with good sleep hygiene, a clean diet, a solid exercise routine and avoiding substance abuse, especially alcohol which is a horrible depressant and awful for your mental well being.
How do I become a spokesperson for you guys? Im in adelaide.
Kevin's story is one of surviving brain disease and suicide. He goes everywhere to save lives. He is a God-given gift to us. He and his precious family will now remain in my daily prayers for the rest of my life. #BeHereTomorrow
Kevin God Bless
Beautiful story, this shows us that miracles do happen.
This guy's fucking legend. ..I could listen to him all day.
Love this video!
you r an awesome man
Mental health problems are illnesses, like any disease, if left untreated it has a detrimental effect on your health! I have been a depression and personality disorder sufferer since I was 13 due to a traumatic childhood littered with abuse and alcoholism ...you sir are an inspiration and a hero! <3 beautiful speech! xx
this man is amazing an does great work he has saved many lives I wish him well
Kevin when I found your clip it really helped me a lot.... I suffer from Bipolar Disorder as well. Your story helped me realize I need to get help and it was ok not be okay and go get professional help.... it took me awhile but I did. Thank you for your story.
Wow. One of the most amazing stories I've ever heard. Well done on your recovery Kevin!
I can only thank you sir, if you read this. I'm only in my 20s am come from a good family. but I've been into depression and alcohol. I've been thinking about suicide recently, so much so that my note is in the drawer next to me. but after watching this and your other lectures- I made me cry and feel much better- it made me get up and start looking for a new job- talk to my friends and accept that I need help again. thank you very much. thank you
Pudding Brain i am in the same place as you. hope you are doing okay
I'm doing so much better now thank you, I moved to a new city, I'm moving in to an apartment with my girlfriend and am working at a job I'm really happy in - surrounded by family and good friends :)
Make sure you get on some medicine, there is a chemical imbalance one must accept and treat.
I know it's been 7 years but I just wanted to check in on you. 💜🌹 I pray you are thriving! 💜💜💜
Thank you for saving so many....GREAT job
