Shirley is a strong common sense woman

Roman is anything but, a celeb kid. What a creative and deep soul he is. A pure soul. He is going places, but in unusual ways - quite unique humane person really. Bless him and bless Joe X:)

My name is Chris Holden, of Northwich, Cheshire UK Both myself & my partner are diagnosed with Autism by Axia ASD Ltd ( Chester ) and adore dogs. We are doing national campaigns to raise awareness against both online social media platform based bullying and offline in communities towards those with both visible birth conditions and hidden mental health diagnosis conditions. I am writing to yourself in hope to gain your support and a statement if possible on your stance of bullying within the communities you support and love I would welcome the chance to discuss our campaigns and for any support you could provide if possible. I would like to understand why the OSA is not being implemented to protect the most vulnerable of people from cyberbullying, harassment and trolling online, leading to severe mental health issues and in tragic circumstances suicide. I have been in constant communication with my MP for Weaver Vale MP Mike Amesbury who has advised me the OSA is now 2026 till implementation. Can you advise me of why this matter is not happening now ? As it was passed into law this year? my partner's campaign to raise awareness of a rare condition called cranial bifida which has a lot of stigma and nastiness and bullying www.changingfaces.org.uk/story/sophies-story-2/ www.northwichguardian.co.uk/news/23832386.woman-mocked-teenagers-mcdonalds-rare-condition/ And my campaign to raise awareness of the effects of online cyberbullying and trolling through social media has towards those with hidden disabilities like autism, BPD and anxiety www.shadesofdifferent.com/2022/05/30/chris-holdens-story/ www.northwichguardian.co.uk/news/19393149.victim-contemplated-suicide-raising-awareness-cyber-bullying/ www.northwichguardian.co.uk/news/19679836.man-courage-stand-cyber-bullying-shortlisted-national-award/ facebook.com/share/p/Tvey82kaaqDYhnjW/ Kindest Regards Chris Holden & Sam Fickling

The stigma attached to going to therapy is too much.

I always find when people ask ‘are you ok’ you often feel pressured to say you are, it’s an auto response. Asking someone how they feel at the moment or if there is anything bothering them that they would like to be listened to about can be a more effective way of opening communication.

I hate seeing those masks again but aside from that what a great guy and great family.

This needs to be shown in schools

Get closer to Jesus or God and you won't have this problem anymore. God is love. Men who are followers of Christ are quite admirable. Let's pray for each other that we may all get through our hardships in life. 🙏

No words

No one can understand the person whom they took their life....!.Most people advise us to talk and ask for advice but when people ask for advice ect they are not attentive or busy to care until its to late....Then most people ask why they didn't ask for help! But you will find most people have if only they had they eyes open and not their devices likes most of us are on.! Please keep more eyes on people that technology and maybe it will say more lives! Amen

How can anybody call him an ambassador for mens mental health?? He is nothing more than a talentless pointless waste of time. Looks more like a pizza boy or a shoe shop salesman!

The bit with his dad gets me. It’s like he blames himself! No! It’s not your fault kid!

My best friend drank himself to death on Oct 11th of 2023 and I am demolished and angry. I loved him on every level. He carried me through the absolute worst time in my own life where I myself was suicidal. I am 48yrs old he was only 35 and I don't allow people in so I know I will NEVER have anyone close like that again.

Fuking boys are fuking horbolll

Wi u fuking haf to menchon abawt fuking yung peypoll taking thery one lavs?

I can only think that an upbeat environment and being that jolly type of person can get exhausting- if and when we cant confront any other emotions with others ----- a remind for us to allow yourself to feel .... and not rush to show friends the side they know you for ,.... It takes time to process emotions us humans have layers to us - we all feel sad and we need space to process emotions .I encourage us to speak about our feelings and be open to have serious conversations .Thanks for creating this type of material for young this generation. I'm dedicating time to make my CZcams channel about Feelings and Emotions.

What a lovely family. Im quite cynical about celebs but they are an exception.

Wow can I say well to Ronan Kemp for doing , last night was the first time I had seen this. After watching the first thing was get into touch with someone who is special to me and I knew they are going through a really bad time at the moment. We talked for ages ,so a big thankyou .

Roman has produced a lovely homage to his dear friend, you can see the heartbreak in his face. God bless both of them 💚

Roman is really handsome 😍

Roman you such beautiful intelligent guy have you not got yourself a boyfriend ithink that is something you really need be true to yourself and make you happy and all those people around you especially family take care beautiful xxx

Thank rRoman what a amazing guy you are for being really concerned about all these tragedy’s .And the lost of your best friend I know how you feel Lv you xx. Take care Roman xxx

This was very powerful and helpful

Roman Kemp: "In my experience, the best way to overcome depression is to be made the host of every single show on British television. You know - like I have."

Only just come across this video of Roman. Wow, listening to him on his breakfast show and learning he’s on antidepressants because of depression and anxiety, who would have thought he had these issues. Well done for highlighting this sad issue 😢

Do not regret taking Cetraline. Modern life is tough and we all need some help. Remember you are so loved Roman.

Thank you for making this. I am a mental health worker from across the pond in California and am so encouraged by this. The hardest step I think is always asking the hard questions but you did it so beautifully. Talking to that man who tried to kill himself and asking him where he was at mentally could NOT have been an easy conversation to approach, but his answers were so lovely and honest. Really god bless you and your work.

She and gorge Micheal went to school together

His mom was part of wham

One of the things I found most disturbing about this was to learn that he has been on anti-depressants since the age of FIFTEEN and he is STILL on them. FFS.

Thank you Roman 😌 You are a wonderful person 🌹

This is such a hard thing to go through… from both sides. It’s hard to lose someone but it’s also hard to feel like life is bleak. People hide it. Please just be kind. ❤

Roman thanks so much for * highlighting * the hidden mental health issues amongst the male population, following the loss of your best friend & soul mate Joe. This video is amazing, I've been through lots of trauma recently, but have kept my issues hidden, so I don't become a burden to others who are in a similar situation.

Thank you for this story. So important. I lost my brother in 2009. No one suspected how he felt.

I love you so much Roman xx

It's so depressing having options. First world problems.

Why is this guy with no discernible talent given such widespread coverage by the BBC?? An institution which once employed the likes of George Orwell and Dr Johnathan Miller.

I understand why we should talk but the "im fine" strategy is pretty damn effective at getting people to back off

It affects every generation. I lost two friends when I was in my 20’s. I’m 46 and a mum to teenagers, and I struggle hard, but mums are suppose to be the care giver. I had my breakdown lying in bed with my then 8 yr old while she slept, I planned how not to be me anymore. I was lucky that I have a chronic illness and I see my GP every month and she simple asked me “ are you ok” and it all came out, she could see I was on my tippy toes on the high wire. It’s a cruel illness. I would rather my physical illness at its worse then a tiny bit of depression

I lost one of my close friends to suicide in january of this year and i can deeply relate to what roman said about about missing his voice i feel the same his girlfriend shared some voice messages she had saved from him and i listen to them regularly i just miss his voice. i just miss my friend

Yuck that's nasty.

A wonderful young man to bring this to us that there is hope

I have an aversion to the children of celebrities.. Roman is the exception. Hes a humble sensitive decent compassionate young man No sense of entitlement about him and no airs or graces.. He could be the son of anyones next door neighbour Oh and unlike most children of a celebrity hes actually very talented in his field

Youre a lovely guy Roman, thats what people need to do and thats to show feelings without any shame. Id be tremendously happy to be surrounded by honest and hearted guys like you.:)

Roman, that was an amazing video, I’m nearer your Dads age and have had my own mental challenges … that somehow I have successfully overcome on my own … I think that yes I’ve survived … but now need to get help facing my demons professionally which I will now do. I feel you have showed an exceptional level of maturity in discussing this very difficult subject, it’s reinforced the importance of friendship and mates, thank you .. your friend was blessed to have you as a friend

Thanks to Roman for being vulnerable...

What do you do when you can't talk to someone?

My goodness, this is one of the most amazing productions I have EVER seen and listened to around the whole tsunami of psychological health challenges. I hate saying "mental" health as we all bandy about that word in humourous ways and in derogatory ways. I could totally relate to so much of what was shared and really appreciate every aspect of what I heard. I struggle often with my own psychological health. I have both clinical AND situational depression that hits me out of the blue from time to time. While watching this I texted my adult kids.... just because... asking how they are and hoping things were going well for them. I didn't tell them I was watching this OR that I was in tears. The boys texted back with lots of love and hugs and positivity about where they were and what they were doing and my daughter rang and caught me right in the middle of bawling my eyes out. We had a great chat.... I'm fortunate that she's studying Psycho-Therapy (and even if she wasn't.... she's amazingly clued in) so she was able to really reach the core of what's going on with me today. To be 100% honest.... I was already miserable when I saw this Roman Kemp video on my feed and I said to myself "don't watch this, you don't need a reason to feel worse"... but I'm so glad I did. Thank you Roman for making this video, thank you for sharing it with us "the great unwashed" out here in the world... you've made a difference to this Irish woman in her 50's.... Keep on keeping on.

Fo the make up well
