  2. like in the video im always tired never figuring how to energize going to bed, caffine ,unable to focuse and just tired not tired enough too sleep but not energized enough to live, not depressed enough to die by but not happy to live

  3. I always think of the worst possible outcomes i don't fit in i wil always be alone losing interest have trouble paying attention loss of sleep and fear i don't know who i should talk to i don't trust anyone much and the people i do i cant reach

  4. didn't know my sanity made me have my trauma worse from last night cuz I keep seeing things in the dark that is scarring me and nobody in my friend group cares I wish somebody could fix my trauma.. ik nothing's in the dark BUT MY EYES. my eyes keeps making me see those.. and sometimes I can't sleep I just can't. the trauma did make me feel like I want to rip out my eyes but. it is more painful nothing changes expect just suffer..

  5. 1:09 , 2:20 and 3:38 i can relate to, but thats not all, some of my friends at school have told me face to face that i'm annoying and how they don't like me, i just feel bad about myself now, am i a dickhead? am i stupid? am i too energetic? what is the reason for me being annoying

  6. Ive just stopped taking care of myself. I dont brush my teeth, put in my contacts, nothing. I just shower, fix hair, deodorant, and rarely cologne. Part of me thinks i deserve it, the other part thinks i should end the suffering. I cant do shit no more, man.

  7. Talk to someone 😅and be made to feel horrible that some how the person you speak to is the problem i.e family member parner when its just your brain i feel like theres a little person of the real me locked in side my head and i cart get out no matter how i try iv just ordered a helium tank off Amazon because sin a video that it knocks you out frist ordered it did a bit more research on it and back in 2015 they put 20% oxygen in it what a waste of money was hoping to go in my sleep 😢

  8. I literally ignored all the signs for years and I’m only turning 22 in a week…
    I’m looking for a therapist since it all clashed and I decided to go to a psychiatric hospital and the last one I talked to asked me one question: „When was the last time you experienced no symptoms?“ and I sat there and couldn’t answer. I just can’t remember cause it’s been so long and I don’t remember much of my childhood.
    In the first clinic I got told that I might have ADHD but they could only help me with the depression they diagnosed me with and after more than 6 months, not being able to work and constantly hearing that no therapist has time for me not for my depression nor for an ADHD diagnosis, I finally found a clinic that will treat my depression AND help me find out if I have ADHD and I’ll probably move in on my birthday next week. I could think of some better presents but I’m just happy they can take me in and help me cause as much as I enjoy having 90% of the last 6 months for myself I wasn’t able to do something fun or get back to any if my hobbies and most of the time I felt and still feel like a burden to everyone around me, but it’s slowly getting better now, I just hope everything will work somehow

  9. Make sense why I feel drained all the time all the signs match my current situation😀Idk why but yesterday I can't hold my shit together and suddenly I cry and today my friend suddenly had an outburst with me and I feel more short tempered because I feel overwhelmed by emotions

  10. I'm always denying that my mental health is bad, but now I realized that it's getting worse and my loved ones are affected because of it. I thought I could do it myself, but I think I need some help. 😢
