  • @melancholicmojo758
    @melancholicmojo758 Před 4 lety +4359

    In a life of misery we sometimes find these small and ultimately temporary moments of hope. I think doomer is experiencing one of those rare nights where the air smells a little fresher, food tastes a little better, music sounds a little more hopeful and smiling seems a little more achievable. Doomer actually has a smile on his face and a pet cat on his bed, I think tonight is one of those nights where he’s actually found a small portion of complete peace. Enjoy it while it lasts. For nothing is forever.

      I'm fucking 16 and already a doomer. I'm much more mature than anyone would think of a guy in my age. I do things that are makin fun, but I hate parties and all that hedonistic bullshit.
      It's senseless. I'm 24/7 melancholic and it's not due to puberty. It's due to philosophy. Man I'm studying all day nihilistic stuff and don't see a sense living. I love my family but I just don't know why people are living.
      I really need someone to open my heart to. People are living day in day out but I don't know why? They're workin - for money - to buy food/to eat - to provide a living for their family - to do something that fulfills them.
      But what is the sense behind that? We are fucking nothing in this whole universe... fuck this life. Being a doomer is the only way out
      Sorry for posting my thoughts under your comment. It has nothing to do with anything but I think under doomer videos are the only people I can anyhow relate to. Here I'm feeling welcome, cuz everyone is feeling so senseless.

      It's really really weird, that "nothing else to lose" is a form of getting better depending on the way you look at it. hitting rock bottom, shows that you lost everything, but you still have yourself, you are still here, and because of that, you have so much to gain. you got a dollar? that's a dollar more than yesterday. someone said you're nice? that's a compliment that you didn't have yesterday. Once you start seeing the the good things in your life it will "get better". The best thing about this, is that if you fall down again, hit rock bottom, it's ok. It's ok because you know you have "nothing else to lose."

      After 8 years of finally having friendship in my life, when for a long time I didn't have it, I lost all my friends, even my oldest ones, and I was alone again for about 6 months. now I have new friends but it won't be the same for a while, I still have to reconnect and try to be a good friend and know them better, and I will still miss my old friends.
      This song just reminds me of the people that used to be there for me, the times that were had, and the fact that it is all gone, for good, and what was probably my best days are now behind me as I now fade away into irrelevancy and become obsolete.

My friends and my mom were basically the only things keeping me alive. I'm 22 now and while I'm finally diagnosed and medicated, I've grown apart from my friends. They all have spouses and children now or they've moved across the country. I'll always think of the good times we had and all the bad times you guys helped me through.

Schoolwork was piling up, family relationships were deteriorating, I gained a load of weight and suffered from low self-esteem and I had nobody. This is the first time I have gone onto this video in what is almost a year now and I’m back at the gym, feeling much better about myself, I have a decent circle of friends around me and of course, my pc is back in working order.
    I remember them nights like they were yesterday, sitting on the couch with the lights off, and tears in my eyes. No one I’m close with even knows about this, and I want to keep it that way.

    This was my favourite song in high school, it simultaneously made me feel extremely euphoric, but also depressed af. Anyways, 10/10 content.
