Could you react to Twenty One Pilots. Their songs are mental health based have a lot of content behind them in history and lore relating to mental health. Covid messed me up and when I heard Level Of Concern, it started my journey of getting help.
His song How Could You Leave Us needs to be next. You don't need anyone to explain his life. He does that in his music. Also, one tip that many people like me who watch reaction videos appreciate is that after you pause the video, when you go back to it, hit the left arrow key once to rewind for 5 seconds. A lot of people miss a lot of things in that moment of unpausing.
It also gives insight into his saying "I wish I had called" which he says here and at least one other song.
And then "Mama" to help heal from "How Could You Leave Us".
@@thedarkestkinghtstar keeping in mind that Mama was done years after HCYLU
@@thomasmacdiarmid8251 Oh yes, I know. It's just How Could You Leave Us always breaks my heart and it helps me personally to listen to Mama after. Or I'd be a bit depressed over emotions that aren't mine. I'm thankful I can listen to both.
@@thedarkestkinghtstar I think Happy fits in there well, as it is suggestive of his path to seeing her as a troubled human just as he has been, and also deserving of grace
NF's Mansion is the foundation of all of his music. He is cleaning his walls of with every song he releases. It's recently culminated with his newest album, Hope. Fantastic messages and even better lyricism.
do „how could you leave us“ also by NF..it gives more insight into his life..
Phew. No one can make me cry like NF can. Jeez. Every time! "I'm not coming to the door, so stop knocking!!" 😢😢 I have that safe room too and it's not fun.
💕
Even after years every time she sings "Broken legs but I chase perfection" for the first time my eyes start to water for the first time. Every single time I hear this song without exception.
NF's music is just beyond special. He's able to talk about such serious psychological topics in his songs like no other.
Never heard this before and I dtarted crying within seconds of his verse starting! 😢
To gjve a little more of a back story on NF you should do "How Could You Leave Us" next. It will give you more of a glimpse into his past with his mom.
NF has helped me so much through my own mental health journey and I'm so excited that you're listening to his songs! "How could you leave us" will explain more about his mom and how he had to grow up. I really love your channel and I love your kindness, understanding and gentleness. Thank-you for the informative content ❤
I have childhood trauma and PTSD. Because of the way I was raised I actually found out 2 years ago through therapy that I have DID. (I'm 33 now) I have a great support network but still deal with Psychosis almost daily. I do therapy 1 day a week and see a psychiatrist for med evals once a month. I struggle with suicidal ideation and paranoia as well. I have major depression and an anxiety disorder. I just want to say thank you for your work that you do!! I sometimes have a hard time getting through your videos because of triggers but I always finish them later. Thank you Dr. Syl for the work that you do!! ❤❤
I love watching your takes on music. I am a 41-year-old mother of five who in the last two years was diagnosed with some pretty nasty diseases and has prevented me from working any longer. Most days I am stuck in bed. I do see a therapist and a psychiatrist, but ultimately music speaks to be louder than anything else. So I appreciate your mashup of mental health and music. I often want to throw my therapist a couple of songs so she’ll know how I’m doing rather than we have to talk about it. I’m just in a hard transition of life and trying to figure out the new me. I haven’t even even watched this reaction yet, but NF’s depiction of his mansion is something I can totally get behind as far as how I deal with trauma both past and present. So I’m excited for this reaction and thank you for the content. Just know you’re helping people all over the world who feel isolated. And I’m not very expressive so music has always helped me to show others how I’m feeling. Otherwise, you get stuck in the loop of quote I’m OK“. And that’s just not real sustainable. Anyway off my soapbox. Appreciate ya. Carry on. Sending good vibes your way. I only have a few so you better catch them. Lol
Great video!!Loved that you reacting to NF. To answer you question, NF's mom died of overdose and in his song call "How could you leave us" he talks about his relationship with her and we get to know more about his childhood. You absolutely should check this song next, it's a really sad one, but is also a masterpeace!!
NF's Let You Down always crushes me. First time I heard it it felt as if it was written directly about my life.
Another good one is NF - Intro III. It's a conversation between his sane self and his anger.
He's got a great song called Hope about coming through illness and the ongoing struggle. Also Leave Me Alone, and Paralyzed. He's got some incredible music!
Your reaction to the last verse said everything.
I love NF
His song Nate also tells some of his story
Thanks Dr for your insights and reacting to my favorite artists, NF and Ren. My son and I actually just got to see NF in concert earlier this week. 😊
I saw the list that you showed in the last comment section. I think going through those songs gives you an amazing journey of his growth and maturity throughout the years. He has changed his viewpoint on past traumas as he has grown up.
First album came out when he was 24 and his most recent album “Hope” came out when he was 32.
You gotta do Therapy Session😁
Yes, but after several of the emotional-release songs that came before it, like HCYLU, Let You Down, and others. It gives a context, and it is certainly important for Therapy Session to understand that he had achieved substantial success as a performer by the time he made Therapy Session.
I would suggest going on the entire journey. The beautiful thing about NF is that every single album is adding on to the story written by a previous album - all leading him to…Hope… at least up to this point.
Now we just hope and pray he comes out with another. 🙏
Oh I loved this. Thank you for reacting to Mansion. Very interesting insights 🙏
In my darkest moments NF's music was there ❤. Thanks for this video!
I love NF's music. Specifically because of the way he fearlessly and unapologetically addresses mental health issues in his songs, as well as how well he is able to articulate his experiences. I would love to see you do more reaction videos to his music.
I’m in the midst of what feels like hell. However, I know it’s hard, but I’m determined.
I listened to this song a lot when I was around 14. It comforted me and even helped me process some of my deeper struggles like trauma and depression when I didn’t really understand what was going on
I really feel this song, especially the part about the safe room.
I love NF! I have PTSD and have constant flashbacks and anxiety disorder from my childhood. I won't say much about it, I'm a woman, and was once a little girl, that's all you need to know. But I love him because he's talking about my life only it was my father who was messed up and my mother left and took us with. My mom did her best. But I still had a step dad that beat up my brother and I because we were the smallest. She left him when she found out. I have a wonderful step father now! Since i was a preteen.
Don't worry, I have a psychiatrist. I'm talking to him weekly and receiving the proper care. I will always need it, I'm sure. It doesn't get better overnight.
Cheers again Dr Syl!
The way you describe "sublimation" fits pretty well with his song "Therapy Session".
Very interesting. Thanks.
Now only i am going to study the background of the song.Thanks for the interesting insight about the lyrics and giving cue to his other songs!
We found our Fosters had different emotional characters with different needs and triggers which we felt they had D.I.D, fortunately we have had success as limiting the continuation of those personalities. It continues to be a struggle occasionally.
All reactors pause quite a bit when they go through his videos, because there is so much content in each of his songs! 6:54
I absolutely love NF! He has a lot of songs that speak on his life and he lays it all out. If you so the NF journey then you'll follow his life story.
More NF Please! Appreciate you!
Most NF songs like 95% of it are mental health related & they're all good!! If you decide to do this then I Welcome you to the NF Journey :)
If you want to get the most out of NF and catch all the symbolism and meanings behind of NF's message, take the NF journey from the beginning and brace yourself 1000% cause its an emotional and unpredictive ride for sure! Shout out to @Nikki5730 for outlining the Journey!
The best info I can give you is NEVER stop a video until it runs out of time cause he hides things all throughout his videos.

Not sure if ur into rock music but linkin park is great for the content u do in reacting to music with mental health themes
My Linkin Park votes go to:
Breaking the Habit
Figure.09
Lying from you
Numb
Imo Breaking the Habit would likely be the most therapeutically rich but I chose the others for similar reasons too. Breaking the Habit and Numb are less heavy than the others. Numb is therapeutically rich but I figured everyone knows the song so xD
@@projectpiano5231 Given Up is definitely missing in that list imo.
13:46 he explained it in How could you leave us 🤧
❤
Saw people recommending "How could you leave us". Please do How Could You leave us' and 'Mama' together...🤧
This might be late or not but some of his current songs/album connect to older song
Ex: "How Could You Leave Us" is connect to "MAMA" which are from two different Albums
Citizen soldier is also a great band. Recommend song “Heavy” written by skydxddy and sang with citizen soldier. Lead singer is a therapist. Should look up his story
May I recommend 'Hope' by NF too.
I like NF's music a lot, Happy that you're reacting to his songs! Clarity by Northlane may be another one to check out (I really like Northlane so I may be biased though lol). It's a metalcore song which may not be up everyone's alley but I think it's interesting in that there's a portion of the song where the singer expresses anger so strong that it feels like he's almost breaking from reality (toward the end of the song "Make of me your scapegoat, ..."). Growing up I was punished a lot for expressing anger(/emotion/needs in general) and I've found that one expectation I have of myself in that regard is to not think/feel too "crazily" when in reality, I know who I am, and if I need to word something a certain way to myself to feel that it gets heard, the best thing I can do for myself *and* others is to express/word it to myself that way. If I am unable to admit to myself how I.. feel(?) emotionally, I'll continue the same patterns and make hurt for others and myself down the line. Clarity uses extreme/poetic language and through that I think it makes me feel more ok with the tribal side of me that is really f-ing pissed about things adults in my life growing up did and got wrong. In addition much of the content resonates but I thought a layer of abstraction out was more interesting to me. Just some thoughts that could be cool to explore relating to the song. But I've gotta watch this vid first! :)
Edit: The song itself is about childhood abuse, being put in pain to numb the pain of the abuser, finding one's voice, and the mental conflict of trying to accept what happened and reach "clarity" while it being so f-ing painful to do so. At least that's my interpretation.
"Last Resort - Reimagined" Falling in Reverse
You're about to dive in the NF journey. Enjoy the Journey, I don't understand why NF isn't more popular.
Next song how could you leave us ! The anwser to your questions
I'd like to refrain from telling you what happened to his mom and instead urge you to listen to "How could you leave us". NF will explain it himself in that song. :)
I'm still asking for Oh Caroline by The 1975
BTW, Ren & NF have 2 colabs I believe. It will be under RenMakesMusic though! ❤
Damn.. Today i took the first step to get into therapy again.. This song is really triggering me but also in a good way, it hurts but its also so so sooo beautiful damn it...
I'm late diagnosed Autistic with possible PTSD and extreme childhood neglect and trauma. I have had involuntary flashbacks for 2 years now, and I am starting to remember stuff that i have suppressed, i knew they had happened, i even talked about them, but the feelings have started to change and it hurts so much more then when i was a kid..
Adults always told me it was incredible how i could talk about traumatic situations without crying or anything - i guess i was never safe enough to feel before recent years..
*EDIT* I guess i might have PPD, since i was first diagnosed with PARANOID Schizophrenia mainly bc i was so extremely paranoid mixed with anxiety. Thanks for that term i will use that to explore!
Can you please make a video about forgetting memories of the childhood and teenage years? I have difficulty to remember stuff and can't remember an specific trauma event and I don't have flashbacks. I've always wanted to remember but it seems like I can't no matter what I do. What do you think of that? Any suggestions?
@DrSyl and others watching this channel:
If you are interested to read about a part of my story you can read it down below: TW drugs, foster care, child death
I often thinnk that the "family trauma" I experienced would be enough to call it trauma.
Because I did not get hurt trough S* Abuse or physical abuse. But I know mental abuse happened, even if it wasn't meant by my parents. For me it is hard to blame them but it formed me as a human.
After the death of one of my siblings as a 7 month old, just on year before I was born, my dad got addicted to alcohol, later my mom suffered from it as well. My siblings had to go to foster care and I was the only one allowed to stay home with my mom. My dad had to live the first 3 years of my life somewhere else. And all of this just because of one person in Kindergarden who assumed abusive behaviour against my sister (which was never the case and could be proven years later) but nevertheless this situation plus bullying at school lead to a personality disorder , depression, general anxiety disorder and so on. But still I can't remember a lot. I often felt kind of weird when I looked at photos when I was younger and I thought it isn't me on the pictures.
Is this some kind of unconscious repression?
What kind of therapy could help me to remember stuff or is it better to let it be?
As someone with DID dx'd at 35, this song absolutely destroys me, but also heals me.
So many of NF's songs are like debridement.
Have you done a utube session on
" Complex Objects Relations Theory " that you briefly mentioned in this video.
I would like to know more as I was unfortunately a child that you describe in your video with the caregiver being the abuser.
I have done lots of therapy over the years but that internal , weird conflicting feeling that stays with me as an adult is torture.
I don't think a lot of people realise its not just the physical acts of sexual abuse/ all types of abuse. But the fact its the Carer that can be loving and kind and then do horrific things to you is so difficult to repair.
I wish we could educate people more about this when they become parents. I am a parent and my sons are noe Adults and I was always cautious of words I used etc but I know as parents we all just try to do our best and everyone grows up with some issue from their patents. Just some more on a very inappropriate way
You need to do therapy session before how could you leave us. There's a certain order his songs go in that's why the NF JOURNEY is. I highly suggest doing them in order to understand the whole story
Please react to Save Me by Jelly Roll!
Great Reaction!
May i suggest, since you checked Ren and NF already out - that you give "COMPLETE - Jordan" a try? It's overseen mostly and without spoilering, i think you will recognize something from "Hi Ren" by Ren there. But he's a outstanding artist in my opinion and he has a talent to talk about his mental issues and alcohol problems which should be definitly heard. Found him like a year ago randomly and since then im waiting and waiting for a spotlight of him - he definitly has not reached his final form yet and has a whole network of rap artists behind him that are also a great journey for that topic, for example "Kogz".
You can also introduce yourself to the whole thing hes connected with by the Song "COMPLETE - Loony Bin (feat The Psych Ward)"
Have a great day and keep the reactions coming - you are one of my favorite channels for them! :)
Jordan has been reacted to, search my channel for the vid!
@@DrSyl Oh my! Didn't catch that before! Thanks so much!
The entire NF journey is his journey in mental growth and dealing with those types of issues. Just do the whole thing, you'll gain subscribers as well lol

I created an imaginary kingdom in my head to protect my mind as a child against the fists, assaults and abuse under the age of 4 until 16 with my father's fists and anger but it didn't protect my body. i still have that magical kingdom to this day but use violent war films like band of brothers and hacksaw ridge to join the units to physically destroy my father but also excel in my current life. i have so much hidden h8tred for my parents and other people. I have severe ptsd but that's my way of coping and that magical Kingdom saved my mind for sure.
"JUST DON'T"

@@DrSyl I swear I tried on god, I am trying... I have notifcations on and everything 😭
It's about 50,000 to do 5 years of weekly analysis, but it's worth more than a car....
🔈 like if u want DADDY BY BADFLOWER - one of the best intense childhood abuse songs I’ve ever heard ‼️ other mental health song mentions: ACHILLES COME DOWN - GANG OF YOUTHS and THIS TOO WILL PASS - OKGO
Do yourself a favor....his videos are just as impressive as the songs he makes to visually correlate with them. You should watch the original to truly enjoy his content.
