Thank you time traveller
How is it that you've watched this video a week ago?
Did you pay or siomething?? xD
31 and basically done nothing since I was 19. 12 years behind on jobs, relationships, mental health, everything. 1 short vacation, no relationships, work 2 days a week, smoke, drink, no friends, 2 nights out in that time. I love my family though. They're why I'm here. Stay strong everyone
Exactly the same...
God bless you and keep you safe. And best wishes for your future. Fingers crossed!
This feeling can get even worse when everyone around you pretends to have it all together when they actually don't... and this becomes particularly true in social media. Most of the times, when we feel behind in life, that sensation stems from comparing our achievements to other people's, and often those are not even real or entirely so. Bear this in mind and focus on yourself because being yourself with your weaknesses and strengths is your superpower.
I connect this to so much especially in School everyone looks as if they have all there life planned out and ure just there.
Social media are so shallow.
Love this 💙
Thats why I only use youtube. And if I use other social media platforms I use a separate account and only limit the content I want to see. I only choose educational and helpful contents. My life has been better ever since doing that.
My biggest issue is comparing myself to celebrities lol. Really toxic trend, trying to break out of it. I can't even enjoy watching most films or tv shows anymore because of it.
Ever since I graduated college, I haven’t done much except staying at home for months. It doesn’t help that my parents still treat me like a child and doesn’t trust me to drive nor do anything else on my own. I’m not even allowed to work any jobs until I finish university. I see my friends travelling around, earning money, making memories while I’m here, living the same day over and over.
Every time I try to express negative feelings, my parents would brush it off since they’re not emotionally capable to handle these emotions. So, I’m managing on my own. I feel disconnected and useless.
People around me expect me to be a growing, capable adult but at the same time, still treat me like a little child. Who doesn’t get confused on how to act? I can’t… Society is just too confusing
Not to mention the financial situation I’m in. I can’t help but blame my parents for making such stupid financial mistakes before having me, to the point where I can’t enjoy the same financial ease my siblings had. My siblings never had to worry about money, while I had to grow up thinking that if I have no want or desire, our financial situation will become better.
Your situation resonates with me a lot, only I dropped out of university and find myself in a similar situation all the same. I think what is eating away at me is that my feeling of disconnection is overbearing. I'm not really sure I have anyone frequently in my life any more, I've not had a normal a life by any means and this has lead me to envy anyone that has a practically normal life by comparison, which I am very well aware is extremely unhealthy. Worst of all, I have achievements that line up with what I wanted ever since I was a child, like making games and meeting heroes, when you fulfil your dreams what do you have to reach for any more?
Society really is confusing, we can only do our best to try to be the change we want to see in society, rather than adding to the problems. I try when I can to stand up for others and advocate for social change, but I can't always be that person, sometimes It can just be hard to get out of the bed in the morning, but we have to try all the same because we only get one life, so it has to be precious.
I wish you all the happiness and success in the world, and I hope you start to gain the autonomy and decision making you desire, rather than languishing. Its a challenge. We have to try to be gentle with ourselves when we don't achieve the changes we want in our lives.
PS: I hope replying to a comment from a month ago isn't jarring or weird for you, writing a message like yours (or mine) can be intense so you might not be feeling the same way right now. Either way, I hope you are doing well!
Same. I'm constantly depending on others as a almost 22 yr old adult and I feel so pathetic. People treat me like a child but it is my fault. Sometimes i think about just selling my body for money or pan handling. Maybe it will be easier to be a bum and giveup.
@@LilyZayli
Atleast you have accomplished things. Im a drop out because i became homeless. The best thing in my life is becoming a mom but i worry i cant take care of my child. No matter how hard my husband tries to find a job he just cant seem to while others in his same shoes are getting jobs all around him. Life just sucks sometimes
I’m about to graduate and I am so scared of how the world is going to treat me. I am a Pre-Med student and I don’t think I did such a good job like I wanted to. My GPA is not good enough for admissions, I am scared for the admissions test that I have to take. I’ve done so much stuff for my community to make up for my poor scores but I feel like it is not good enough. It’s so hard not to envy my friends who have stable careers, more than likely will get into medical school, have stable relationships with their families and partners. I’m tired of pretending that I’m ok, but I’m not, I feel alone and lost. I feel like I’ve wasted my youth in a dream that seems unreachable because of a broken system. I want to become an empathetic physician, but It’s so discouraging to know that you have to meet someone’s standards with a number and not character. Im sorry for my rant but I really don’t know how to let go of this pressure
I can relate to this. Especially that I'm a Filipino and my parents care less about mental health.
We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.
Finding a friend who understands you … is important… !
@@sheilameyers152 Yes!! Very important!!!
Yeah, so true. When life doesn't give us our vision of perfect, maybe it's trying to give us something better.
I don't feel like I have a worthy life awaiting for me, so what's the point.
@@Auurify I think you're just going through a stage.
I'm also going through a stage rn, I just lost my best friend forever (haha, LOST my best friend FOREVER) And it's all my fault. Someone who used to love me like she wasn't a normal selfish human now hates me for being toxic. And our mutual friends all shun me too.
For the past two months, I genuinely didn't see a future. I don't have any talents, I don't have any friends, I don't have a youtube channel. But today I reconnected with one of my old elem school friends and she's nice enough to still embrace me (probably only because she hasn't seen how toxic I can be when I don't control my anger but at least it's something) Either way, I don't think I will make the same friendship mistake again, and today I felt hopeful.
Life is like a tough teacher. Maybe you just got a C- on your last test and are beating yourself up over it. But I love how even though life won't be nice and curve your grade (ie. can't change the past), it'll still throw more tests at you, stubbornly giving you chances to make things better until the day you die. It's almost like life is... believing you can do it.
I have not a clue if this rant helped you but I do know that because you're alive, you're
a) fighting some s***
b) gonna win this s***
I think you might want to watch exubr1a, his vids always help me put things in perspective.
Definitely needed this reminder today. I’m feeling really alone and “ghosted” by those around me. But as much as it hurts, I will keep fighting and will not give up!
I'm right there with you. Feeling those same feelings. The "ghosted" part sucks. Trying to read beyond the initial reaction to figure out what the situation is trying to teach me. Geez though it's hard to not get dragged down by the immediacy of the sucky feelings that go with it all!
I remember when my mom got sober, suddenly everyone ghosted her. It was because she started standing up for herself and people didnt like that they couldn't manipulate her anymore or scapegoat her for things she didnt do.
@@malumachado4561 Amen to that! God bless those of us struggling to do the right thing & stay on the right path! It is a lonely road In this country right now. ♥️🙏😔
I feel the same. I'm a shy person and people seems to not understand what is it so I'm often ghosted. But even when I try to be gentle and go see them it's the same
I just cut off ties with those types of people.
This showed up in my feed last night as I was sitting and crying about this exact thing. It felt like the universe heard me. Thank you for the hope.
Same here. I don't know what you are going through but I am sorry for your pain because of it. It's easier said than done but please keep trying your best and don't give up! No matter how dark your surroundings become there will always be a bright light to bring you out of the darkness. You just have to find it first. Sending you much love and good vibes 🤗💛
@@FutureFendiFsnista Thank you for the uplifting words. I wish I could copy/paste them right back at you. It gives me hope to know there are still good people in the world who'd take the time to encourage a complete stranger in a moment of sadness. I wish you the very best, and I hope that, whatever you are going through, the pain passes soon and you are able to look back and see the purpose in the struggle. Much love to you, MJ. ♡♡♡
@@maicey_t. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
To be unrealistically optimistic and thinking things will magically work out for you if you don't even make a token effort, will ruin your life as much as the faulty belief, that the entire world is out to get you.
8,000,000,000 human beings do not even know you exist, never will, nevermind have any sort of opinion about you. Most people will never know you exist, let alone have any sort of positive, mixed, or negative opinion of you.
This itself can be terrifying, or liberating, and the choice is yours to make.
Don't know who you are but know you are loved even by a stranger like me and never give up even when things get dark or if your struggling, theres always a small light. Just have to keep going till is as bright as the sun.
I can attest that there will be a dawn. After 4 years of deep depression and solitude, I am finally seeing the good more often than not. Don't give up on you. You are worthy of the life you are living.
When my anxiety and depression starts getting really overwhelming (which is nearly everyday since I’m not on antidepressants) I try to rewire my thinking to be more positive. I remind myself to take it “minute by minute” in my head until I can get myself into a better headspace. I hope this helps someone 🙂
That is good advice. Sometimes that's allI can do.
You know what, I think that might be key for many of us i got worse on several antidepressants amd mood stabilizers they do anything BUT what they claim ...and they ALL SAY "we really don't know how any of this works and it might work in SOME of you"...then we go on zapping our brains with so many pills in my experience that is key I think and I'll try it a REALLY GOOD TRY although some say "trying is lying" we must simply DO... either way I'll try breaking my day in little parts mentally with to do lists...
Sometimes people need meds
with me im just forced into suicidal thoughts
@@poosaykleen i’m sorry to hear that, i hope you understand that you’re worthy and not a bad person. You’re incredibly amazing and still remember to thank yourself for keep going living your life no matter what, even if thoughts came there’s hope in you, maybe you can’t see it right now but you will, trust me. Never give up because of anxiety, thoughts or depression, we are ourselves and those bad one are not us. Hope i helped!
I fully support the increasingly psychedelic nature of these cartoons.
Same!

I lost my retail job when it closed in 2020, a job I hated but couldn't get out of because I felt bad leaving the others in that hellhole yet that was all I knew how to do. But I landed on a better one with less pressure, doesn't cause much anxiety, and not retail. The funny thing was that this job was being offered to me for a couple years but didn't jump on it due to above reasons. My life is far from perfect but that job loss was in fact for the better. So I think there's something better out there for certain types of people but they tend to overlook.
I lost my job almost 3 years ago.
My nigga I lost my job over a month ago n I don't feel this bad. Hopefully this helps someone but keep ur head up fam
Whenever I feel alone (and I feel alone a lot), I remember a quote I found online- "The Sun is also alone, but it still shines." It really cheers me up.
Whenever I feel like giving up, I remember that I'm not the only one going through depression and there's millions of people around the world fighting too 🧡 we can do it together
If you want to get over depression you have to realise that depression is more like a puzzle or a journey into your own mind. You have to realise that only you can control who you are and who you become. Begin to slowly organise your life. Take small steps at first like doing your own laundry. As you begin to slowly organise your life you can begin to create a plan and figure out what makes you fulfilled. There are many other more specific things you can do to get out of depression, but those are more case specific.
💛Thank you for help 😀😍
This reminds me of my search for love as a shut-in. Can't really go out and date. And the normal non-shut-ins hate my idea of having a roommate romance. Actually I don't want more friends, just one person to love.
True🙂
How does that help? If anything, it just reinforces how insignificant and worthless we are.

I had undiagnosed adhd that affected all my relationships and took my career, money,etc. I’m 40 today and just finding this out is freeing but also devastating
im 16, and i was actually diagnosed with adhd at a much younger age, except my parents are assuming its gone by now, and whenever I bring it up, i'm "being overdramatic" and "you can't just rely on meds for the rest of my life"
@@MaxGamer07wastaken it’s more of a physiological health issue. With ADHD the executive dysfunction is pretty much a bypass of the prefrontal cortex due to stress. Meds are only a nudge in the right direction but for some it’s necessary
@@The_Vanished I'm aware, and also aware that I can't completley rely on meds, but I was talking to them back then, and to you now, about a more permanent fix, if one exists
This totally hits home! I'm in my early 40s, struggling with epilepsy and couldn't keep the job I always wished to have...being a preschool teacher. I filed for disability for my epilepsy but got denied over 5 times. Any guy I've been interested in never liked me back, so I gave up on ever having somebody to love me. My grandma isn't in the best of health and my mom got diagnosed with cancer. I truly feel like I'll never be as successful as other friends and family members are!
That must be difficult to deal with.
While I can understand the difficulties that having a disability can bring, I can only imagine how hard having the rest is.
While it's hard, you have a family of sorts here and friends who won't judge or pick on you for feeling left behind.
🤗 Sending virtual hugs
Christ sees what you're going through your loved no matter what just know that you are cared for that seems to be extremely stressful I have been in points in my life where I wanted to take my own life but I remember that Christ loves me and he loves you just remember that
Please do not lose hope❤️ stay strong and be positive. Prayers for you
It's painful knowing that I kinda feel left behind in life. I know life has so much to offer in terms of future experiences and opportunities, stuff like that, but honestly time literally flies by so quickly that I couldn't even immediately catch up to it on time. Despite all of that, I still continue to push myself cause giving up for me is simply not an option. Taking away your own life is also not an option. With a forced smile on my face, I gotta keep moving forward even though it's so hard from time to time.
I know how you feel. I think sometimes I stay alive only because it would crush certain people and be so painful for them.
This is really admirable for you to do, I feel the same way
I felt that
Every small step forward will compound some day. You don't become rich with one penny but you can not become rich unless you start gathering money penny by penny. This is true of anything you wish for in life. If you have something you wish you could be. Find out the tiny steps that you have to take to get to that and start taking them. Even if it's just keeping your room clean. You got this sophia
i can relate

Remember ur not alone.. life can be really hard sometimes..But let's hold hands and face it!
Me too!
Sending virtual hugs for u too

I cried a lot while watching this video. My mind have been doing all the possible things to make me feel like I’m a failure, and I couldn’t fight it today. I truly needed a little amount of positivity.
Not everyone can put themselves back together after falling into depression I almost didn’t; I nearly pulled the trigger on my own life about a year ago. To make the story short, I became overwhelmed by other people putting their depression on me and my own depression to the point where I couldn’t recognize what I had that was good vs the bad. After that I started taking note of 100 things that I was thankful for in life for about a few weeks and started to have some change for the better. At this I’m a bit better because of what I did and I learned that things are only as bad as you make them. For anyone who may be going through a rough patch like what I went through that took the time to read this, please remember that you are amazing and are loved.
I'm always trying to tell myself that I'm not alone, that I can do this, that I don't have to end my life but when everyone proves the opposite to me and sometimes I just feel like why Am I even fighting for? Are these struggles even worth it? What if I don't even have a future? I just... don't know what to do anymore and things became meaningless..
Yeah for now its meaningless but at the end it makes all sense
Hey I'm with you on that one on such a personal level. Everytime I get this motivation and feel like I can do this... then one day I just have zero hope. I think it has to do with worrying about the future too much. Try to remain present and focus on what is happening now. It took me some practice but this helps me and it led to a more hopeful future and happiness for me. I know it will for you too. 🙌
Don't care about others live your life for yourself, don't try to please others, but even if u do the best they still criticise you, so I hope you find "what you really" love, I will be cheering for you, don't give up 💜💜
I understand how you feel. Recently, I talked to one of my school bully that lead me to poor mental health, lack of social support and finally, suicidal attempt (this was 2017). It's been 4 years now. I asked her, why didn't you helped me, why no one cared as if my life didn't matter? Guess what, she wasn't sorry. In fact, she said, oh I guess you realised your mistakes now? That's great. She sees my suicidal attempt as sinful and a mistake rather as my attempt for a cry of help, support and understanding from people. It was hurtful because I was expecting an apology rather she only made me feel like my existence is a mistake. I cried A LOT but life is not worth for these stupid people, just like the people you mentioned in your life. Someday, it will make sense, just don't give up because if you do, next person will be the next victim of the same life struggles. Live your life to tell a story, so that more people can learn to be compassionate, understanding and supportive of each other.
I have been feeling like this for over a month now... and yes, I have also considered just ceasing to care about anything and just lying under my covers for the rest of my life. After many days , I finally saw a glimmer of hope, a brief assurance. I pray that you overcome whatever you are going through, and you can find meaning again... remember life can be a b!tch sometimes , but you are never alone... theres someone out there rooting for you and you gotta make it through for that person. Sending you virtual hugs!
I know this kind of misses the point of not giving into those thoughts of one's life being over, but when I start having thoughts like my life's over and I have no one/no purpose/etc., I tell myself 'Screw it, if there's nothing left for me, I'm gonna live for myself. I'm gonna do whatever I want that makes me happy. What I've always told was acting selfish - I don't care. I'm gonna eat my favorite foods, stay in my pajamas all day, watch all my favorite films. My life's over, nobody cares about me, so why not do what makes _me_ happy during what time I have left? But, juuust in case my life _isn't_ over, I'm still going to be reasonable and refrain from things I may regret, e.g., carelessly spending money, reckless behavior, etc.' It's what gets me thru periods of having those thoughts until I'm able to think clearly and realize my life is not, in fact, over yet.
Great mentality. I love the idea of fighting through the negative demons
Best comment yet.
I do this :)
If there's nothing left for me then I only want to watch the world burn.
@@idreamindarknessandsleepto1475 or you come here trying to better SOMETHING about your life or yourself. clearly.... there is still hope left in you :)
I really needed the reality check of "you're not supposed to be happy 24/7" On social media, everything is a highlight reel, and it's easy to start believing that your peers are constantly happy and achieving
I've recently been feeling behind in life, and on the verge of a mental break down. I'm 17 and worrying about becoming an adult and not knowing what the heck I'm doing with my life. So I've been rushing school and I got a job and am working 5 days a week now, and I have been just a wreck lately, and I'm burning out. But, this video has helped me alot and I think I can convince myself to chill out a little bit, so thank you.😌
you are just in the phase. Just walk through the path, take rest regularly. I dont know if you will be in the destination you wanted to be, But i know that you will lead a peaceful life
Can I tell you something bro you're a kid and the reason why I tell you is this 11 years ago I was literally right where you're at I was dealing with major depression that was so difficult that I couldn't even stand straight some days I was so fatigued I graduated high school with the 3.75 GPA and I didn't go to college for 2 years I wasn't doing anything for 7 months after I left my part-time job that I had which was the first job I ever had I volunteered for different places for 7 months while not being in school I finally worked a job for a year and a half and then went to community college and transferred to a state school after that. Bro 17 years old you're not even officially starting your adult life yet. You should have seen me as an 18 year old I was such an idiot and I was such a kid do not at all put yourself under so much stress and expect immense things for yourself know that you are literally just starting your life God loves you bro and I'm telling you I went through literal hell when I was that age keep trucking bro I respect you.
O my gosh the pucca reference. Someone still remembers
Most of my life I've been alone, stuck in my head and confused about how my life has gone with nothing much to show for it has made me feel like a failure even though I've tried time and time again to the point of frustration that I gave up at a point in time after I lost someone I genuinely loved and have made attempts to take my own life but it's videos like this this that give me some semblance of hope that my life will get better despite feeling like an absolute mental and emotional train wreck.
I kinda resonate with you, studying a major I don't like after dropping out of another one that I didn't like. Not really knowing what I like anymore and these 1 year and a half or 2 years of isolation (im with my family, but they are...stupid, to make it simple, so I'm isolated) has made me reach some dark places in my brain, but I'm gonna fight and go to therapy or something, I will try anything and not give up until there are no other options.
@@gericko4931 The only thing you can do is fight the dark thoughts that plague your mind. I too understand the family dynamic you speak of. I rarely interact with any of my family (I do not know where their loyalties lie, dont speak with 3/4 of them due to their two mouthed crabs in a bucket, hyena mentality)and constantly isolate myself from them as a means to not absorb the energy they emit, otherwise I'd either be institutionalized in a mental asylum or dead from taking my own life
Well. The problem with these philosophies is that they don’t acknowledge that the term being “behind in life” is not used to frame a feeling which erects from comparing yourself to others. Its coming from the fact, that you are in a place as an adult, where you are lacking things, which you essentially need to be happy or have a feeling of wellbeing.
I will take myself as an example.
I always struggled in school. Despite learning a lot, I barely passed high school. When I was 20, I worked my ass of to attend college. Which 24 I enrolled. Like in school, I learned a lot, but didn’t manage to write good enough grades to get my degree. I even changed three times my major. Nothing helped. With 29 I left college. No Degree. Only a huge debt. The only job I could find, was as a cashier at a local restaurant. I still work there. I still have a lot of debt.
Despite that I always struggled making friends. I treated people nice, but they treated me like a doormat. I never had a friend as a kid or a teen. Same with love. Despite I tried approaching women. Every single rejected me. I never had a hug, a kiss, a date or a relationship.
Here I am. 31. Lonely, poor, no friends, no love. Its not about comparing myself to others, its about that what adults need to be somewhat happy, I don’t have.
I never had a boyfriend or even a real date before I met my husband. You just never know. At 61, looking back, I can tell you that 31 is young still. Hang in there, look for cheap therapy, (alot of interns still in school offer cheap therapy, or sliding scale.) You don't need to do it for years, just get yourself some perspective and objectivity. Remember lots of people are struggling to find a decent job and wage right now, that has nothing to do with you or your worth. I'm saying a prayer for you, I feel like I was exactly in your shoes at 31, and I am fairly happy now after therapy, finding a job that fit for me after LOTS of jobs that didn't, etc.
I feel like a lot of my childhood neglect hindered me from being a successful adult like my peers. My parents were very controlling and coddling so I always had to find ways to learn to be independent or know basic adult things. It's hard because having that neglect also led me to find love and attention through other people and a lot of the time it ended up ending in a lot of hurt and toxic situations.
This video helped remind me that I don't always have to stay like this, so going to keep going a little at a time and learn to love myself too so I won't feel the need to get validation from others. Thank you.
Love the kid who read the poem couldn't stop smiling. And the animation is always adorable.
I was so sad that all my friends have their carrers figured out but i don't..this video made me feel so much better🥺
Same Keep Doing What you Love And Stay Determine!
trust me, they dont have their careers figured out. everyone i know from high school (i graduated 12 years ago) has done NOT A SINGLE THING with their degree. most of them are stay at home moms. while dad works some job at a warehouse because it pays well... trust me. your career isnt the definition of success. Remember that. when i was 25 i realized the definition of success lies within yourself and what YOU think it is.
@@19powpow91 i needed to hear that🥺 thank you...ily❤
@@joebiden123mail5 thanks a lot❤❤
@@19powpow91 absolutely agree with this. at 29, i finally realized that society puts so much pressure on you finding happiness, fulfillment and community in your job but it’s simply not the truth… it’s so important to have passions and identity outside of your job. 100%, success is what you make it, how you define it❤️ sending love!!!
I'm 49 and suffered a lifetime of social anxiety. Even though I was very monetarily successful and in very good physical shape I feel my life is over :(. Being alone is terrible.
I'm younger but when I read your comment I don't feel alone thanks to you. At least less alone. I thought finally someone who can understand me. I'm socially anxious too. Very very anxious and the more I feel juged the more it gets worse. My family isn't supportive at all. They don't get it. They say I'm crazy, I must go to a psychiatric.
@@b.unicornette7734 Same here, my family denied it. I was also extremely overprotected growing up, complicated story. Time passed. I guess you have to learn to accept it. I watched a video that really struck a chord. It was about "not giving a f&#k" about other people. Like being strong and not caring about others. I slowly incorporate that into everyday life. I am a distance inline skater, I talk to women here and there, and got numbers. I have a skate partner, probably nothing will come it, she is quite a bit younger than me, but we spend lots of time together. I don't care at this point, better than being alone, and nice to see a text from someone. Also, If they reject me, I say to myself their loss. Also learn to build value in yourself. Maybe it means working out or accomplishing something. Good luck, it is a very difficult journey. I think I missed out on so many milestones, it is painful.
Hugs ❤️🤗 i dont feel as alone either
Same age. Same issues. Very lonely. About to celebrate the big 50. Alone. But I’m gonna make the most of it. 🫂
@@justathought7221I get you. Although staying postive it's about the mental state, it's hard on a daily basis. Some would tell 'oh yeah you can still do whatever you want". No it's not that easy. I'm 30, I hate to admit it. Time flies. I see my wrinkles and it breaks my soul. My student years are becoming far and it breaks my soul. Just to think about those years.... I want to cry. Because I chained myself not to date, not to be happy, not to dare date anybody because of my toxic parents who told me as a kid not to ever ever sleep with guys as if they would eat me, as if it's a crime. When you are a kid you absorb things. You believe it deeply. So I stayed single since forever untill now. Believe it or not, I'm a virgin. The only guy who wanted to date me was french and I'm a moroccan. I was 25, was petrified, was all shocked and confused of him liking me. No, it was impossible, a joke. I'm hideous. Nobody would like me. So he thought I messed with him. But he would never know the hell I go through to even let someone touch me.
I'm getting older and all my ex friends or actual pals are married, engaged, mothers of one or two etc. They have a good job, a husband, a house. They can travel. I can't. All those things, I don't have them. I'm 30 and society, patents are pressuring me to find a man, a husband although I have my demons, hate myself and just im stock in the phase " what I'm I gonna do with my life?". I'm socially anxious, I struggled to even study and get my degree. I struggle now to find a job, a good one and be satified about it. I don't even have a car. I just want to be happy and optimistic but something is draging me down. Some days I feel alright. Most of the days, I get dark thoughts. I don't even like being human. I hate it. I'd like so much to live the life of a bird. It sucks to be a human, to feel, to think, to have to buy every single tool for your body. To battle to feel recognised, appreciated, to fit in. It sucks even more to be a woman. In the country I live in it's hell to walk in the streets as a woman. So here's why I understand your pain and I feel you. I hope at least that you're feeling less alone.
gotta love the 'over the garden wall' theme, and finn and Jake's tree house. thank you for adding references, it makes it little bit more relatable.
“YOU are NOT what happens to you”
Loved that!
I focus on what is happening to me & connect my worth to it.
When really… I am not that. Things just happen sometimes & out of our control.
I lost my job. = im dumb, loser…. No!
Maybe the company is downsizing or closing. It’s not my fault.
It's so sweet of you that you people mentioned the Suicide helplines.
I have these feelings the entire day. My life feels completely lost, no rope to pull back, no base, just floating in space without a goal.
Me too😞
Same I have no goal but just to live but I really want a mercedes s class the lights and interior looks so good
Yep.
@@user-mq9lx9im3x you can work towards owning that mercedes then. Who knows on your way to own the car, you find a purpose in life? ☺️💕
its my 20th birthday today, but i cant help to feel that i am no use to everyone...i feel left out in every possible way... nothing feel meaningful to me anymore
Tw rant
I never felt so left behind in my life. Both of my bestfriend (we interact online) have already had people who liked them and relationships. Both have a strong support system towards their careers. Both have close real life friends. Both have complete families. I used to have a complete family until my mother died a year ago. I've been especially jealous of one best friend but after losing my mom and my only real life support, my mental health went downhill even as my body continues to do chores, study, work, and other responsibilities.
I feel like life has given me the shorter end of the stick and I feel furious towards my circumstances. Seeing my best friend, as much as I love them, are a reminder of what I can't have. I feel so left behind. On a happier note, I'm able to push my thoughts and control my reactions to a big extent. Now I'm trying to heal from my frustrations while finding a way out of my circumstances.
"Everything in life is sure to pass"
I- I like that 😮💕
A lot of time if I’m not feeling to good I tell myself that my situation is eventually going to change
Thanks for the video. I just bawled my eyes out while watching it.
I'm in my early 30s, with a decent job, but not very promising career path. My parents are getting older, while I don't have a partner (and honestly I still don't know if I'll ever find one since I'm socially awkward). I'm starting to look for investments and a possible career change, to better prepare myself financially for the possibility that I'll be alone until I die.
Recently I'm also finding that it's difficult to accept that I'm already in my 30s. It's silly, but I feel like I'm not ready. So many doors to new opportunities will be closed to me in the coming few years because those opportunities will prefer younger candidates. I'm scared because it feels like there'll be no way out once I hit a certain age. No more restart button.
I know this is months late, hope everything is going well for you. I am looking for videos for my partner as he's in a dark place right now and I'm trying to help him, and came upon your comment.
I'm 35 and have been in the same situation, one thing I will say is, if you want to be with someone and share your life with someone don't look for perfection, people are awkward in general, so that's something you have in common with them. I have switched careers 3 times now, I'm a graphic designer, changed to programming and currently marketing, trying to be a successful entrepreneur, now I'm at my 7th business attempt so that's 6 failures, which have taught me something. And for successful I don't expect to become the next millionaire on the block, I just want a business that can pay the bills and sustain some people while doing something positive for others.
Try to lower your expectations, you don't need to be perfect, enjoy your parents, enjoy your time, we worry about stupid things and don't know if we will be alive the next hour. Enjoy life one step at a time, everything is uncertain but death. So whatever you do, make sure it is fulfilling. No one has time to be worried about things like "money" (which is something we made up), or career (which is related to money, your career can change no problem).
The struggles you have right now, are the same struggles people in their 50s have, as well as people in their 70s. Stop worrying so much and just enjoy the trip. I see so many clients that are changing their career at 50 years old, or doing their first business. Life changes a lot, some times the pacing is slow, some times fast. There's no such thing as a "secure job" or "secure path", one day everything is fine and the next you could be fired or changing job, or even a pandemic hits and everything goes to shit. Some times you can't control what happens, and you have to be ready to change and adapt. This happens often. Instead of worrying if you should change career right now or not, ask yourself, is what you are doing worth it? are you enjoying it? do you find fulfillment with it? if the answer is yes, then you're in the right path.
Worst scenario, you learned a new skill. Next.
Hey there. I know it has been 9 months since you posted this. I had all the same qualities you described. I turned 30, have a very well paying job and also a very good future ahead of me. I am married and immigrated with my wife during the pandemic which was very hard. My parents are also getting old and I honestly don't know if I will ever see them again (except for video call of course).
One piece of advise I can give you is, don't beat yourself up for not being in a relationship. Take it slow. It is better to not have someone, than to just hastly jump into a relationship you will regret. Remember, you have lived all by yourself for quite some time. Having someone in your life which you need to compromise with is a very difficult adjustment.
My the way, my wife and I met on Tinder. We are both socially awkward. There are many people who are. We didn't meet for hookups, but arranged our first date. She was herself not sure if she wanted to meet up. Her parents followed us around on our first date (without me knowing), just to put her at ease 😅 .
@Noirlite Very interesting points you made. It's indeed primary to figure out where the respective person starts. If he/she is just a little off as you say or if there are life threatening/altering issues.
I would like to add my own experience, as I learned that all the support out there, whether it's from official sources like therapy or coaches or from private ones like family and friends, after all is said and done, it's alway ME that has to take the steps and do stuff. That needs to be accepted. Self-responsibility. It is my responsibility to figure out what needs to be done, how it needs to be done, what resources I have for that and where I can find additional knowledge and/or support in order to do it successful.
So thinking about personal standards, like at what time do I want to go to bed, wake up, how much sleep do I wanna have each night, it's important to figure out my personal standards and raise them. We are not our highest standard. We are much more the lowest standard that we still tolerate to exist. If I tolerate coming late for appointments at the maximum 30minutes, then I'm usually late by 20-30 minutes. I gotta stop tolerating that, set a new standard and act accordingly. The results will follow. It's in our own hands.
It's also in our own hands how to react to problems, stress and hurdles. Most of us by the age of let's say 35 have already experienced many different situations and challenges. And mastered them. Overcame them. Outlastet them. So I'd say each of us has their own set of successes and stories where we're proud of. Could be an academic degree. Could be the driver license. Could be a tough situation where we found and made(!) a way out of. These things will help us to believe. To believe, that we actually CAN do it and have it in us, to prevail. Each and every single one of them is proof for us personally, that we have won and can win and will win, if we put the necessary steps into action. No matter how tough the situation, we always shall gather our personal resources and concentrate them. Faith in ourselves and in our abilities is one of them.
We have won before. We have mastered difficult times before. We have survived before. It doesn't matter if these personal success stories would be seen as a success by other people. Doesn't matter at all. It's ourselves that need to see those "trophies of mind", in order to convince ourselves of our power.
So what do I want to say with all that?
To me, we are all creators. Most of us are not aware how much actually we can create for ourselves and beloved ones. So we need to find our ways back towards our personal faith and our plentiful personal resources. What do I know? What can I do? What do I have that I can work with?
With all that consumption of stuff out there, and I'm guilty of that myself, we forgot that we actually are way more powerful than we think. So we gotta realize that again, come back to it again. So that each and everyone can create their own best versions of oneself and their own best life that they want. And with this, each and everyone of us will have more personal resources to work together and help each other.
It's what made us humans survive that long in the first place.
Noirlite and Red, I appreciate your comments and what you each added to the discussion. It made me think and realize some things. Thank you for that. I wish you only well.
@Noirlite Appreciate the comment :) though, I never said settling "for anyone", I said "lower your expectations", because nowadays everyone is looking for the perfect person that will fulfill ALL your needs, that's not real and is never going to happen.
I myself have been in very dark places, suicide thoughts have crossed my mind, but once you hit that wall HARD enough and find yourself at the point of deciding if you want to continue or not, you begin to appreciate things that might seem small, but are meaningful.
TLDR; money is not the solution for loneliness, depression or even to achieve happiness. Life changes a lot, for good or bad, and to survive, you need to adapt to the changes. Don't try to make people get you out of depression, only you can get yourself out of that mindset.
@@Red-fg9qr i don't know man. It's literally easier said than done for me. I dont understand how someone can change career path like that easily when I can't even make one myself. When I was still in school, I used to think that I can do anything but I found out in real life it's only half the equation. I came to realise that I'm not good at anything. I dont know what to do and I don't know what do I need to know. I'm surrounded by people who have no concept of success. They don't live their lives, they're just surviving. And I have very poor personal development. That's 3rd world country for y'all.

I feel like this channel is talking to me every time with every video at every moment 😢🙏🏽 Still healing from a break up and these tormenting thoughts creep in whenever im bored or especially at night.
I personally love Schopenhauer's idea about trying to reduce our suffering as much as possible instead of seeking happiness.
8:40 .. as if my inner child spoke to me again. I got tears in my eyes.. I used to tell these to myself from a very young age.. I have been an extrovert, bright and active girl for the outside world all my life but only a few know how sensitive and vulnerable I am from the inside.. I have been insecure about so many things in my life from a very young age. When I look back, I just want to protect that child - tell her that I like you and love you, and she isn't alone anymore.
I love this channel. The calming, quiet voice is exactly what I need to hear, it calms me down, takes me to somehow even a meditative state. People scream and raise their voices at each other all the time. This is so calm, so peaceful, so.. reassuring. Thank you.
Hi, I am Vitor from Brazil and I want to share a Poem that I made Inspired by this video.
I wrote it in portuguese and i can't translate it properly, but i want to express how much your videos helped me. So thank you, people behind Psych2go videos.
Life is not over yet
A vida não está terminada ainda
Ainda lhe resta um coração para viver
Que bate errado e arde
Erra o compasso ao correr do dia
Mas segue
Seus pés ainda seguem
Cansados, doídos
Na errância da trilha construída a cada hora
Eles mal sabem aonde vão
Mas não cessam o ir
Sua boca ainda sabe dizer
Consegue no pior momento se abrir
E dizer um olá para um novo outrem
Seus ouvidos ainda tem
Muito a aprender
A cada vibração
A cada novíssimo fone
A cada segundo
que você permite escutar
A vida continua
Ainda há muito amor para viver
E chorar e perder e errar
E conhecer de novo
A vida não é finda ainda
Sobraram muitos sabores para gostar
Muitos lugares a se conhecer
Muitas estradas para correr
Muitos erros a se cometer
Muitas bocas para provar
Não é finda ainda a vida
Se o tempo lhe sorri
E o destino joga a sua moeda
O viver acontece
Bonito poema. 🙏🏽
That was a great poem

There is someone in my acquaintance who recently took her own life, and I so badly wish she had seen this. She had a gorgeous family who loved her, and who she had been very open with about her struggles, and they were supportive of her and helping her get the proper treatment that she needed, but she still did what she did. I think that's truly the worst thing about suicide: the mind lies with poison thoughts long enough for that person to do something irrevocable. But thats all it is.... a lie.
I wish she had seen this, especially the part about 'wait a minute, and hour, a week.....' so true 💖💖💖💖

Well. The problem with these philosophies is that they don’t acknowledge that the term being “behind in life” is not used to frame a feeling which erects from comparing yourself to others. Its coming from the fact, that you are in a place as an adult, where you are lacking things, which you essentially need to be happy or have a feeling of wellbeing.
I will take myself as an example.
I always struggled in school. Despite learning a lot, I barely passed high school. When I was 20, I worked my ass of to attend college. Which 24 I enrolled.

Oh man I can feel what you're saying. I keep trying to believe that there's good at the basis of everything. That somehow it's all going to turn out alright. And then I get smacked down one more time. And, each time I'm ready to give in, thank goodness, there's this voice way in the back that says (from what seems like very far away) that there is at least one more thing to learn. Dang it for that voice! But I figure I owe it to myself to learn all that I'm able to. The getting through it part is so hard. Maybe break it into smaller pieces?

@@shawnclark2550 I want to say some goofy thing like "find your flashlight man!". And then I remember just how hollow platitudes can be. I've sat so many times in difficult places with people that I love trying to talk me out of them. Thinking that they really have no idea how I feel. And in many ways, they don't.
But, so far anyway, there's always been something that's rang true, even though it's not exactly what I thought I needed. I've almost relished those times where I've wanted to give up more than anything else. And (thus far), I've just gotten pissed off that something inside of me stops me from doing so. But there's also something inside of me that keeps me going. Keeps me seeking light. It IS out there. Keep reaching out. However you can. Find your flashlight (sorry - I couldn't resist! ) Keep talking. There are people out there who care.
@@kelleytuck1584 I'm a girl. If If I knew where the flashlight was, I would have grabbed it a long time ago. I can't hold out hope forever. Maybe I just need to accept that this is all there is. Maybe that would be more realistic. 😪

Hey, hey, hey! Don't just look on the negative side. If you're alone, you're probably not. It's just something you need to look out for. And you may be an introvert. At times, as an introvert, I felt alone too. Everyone may be having fun, but remember that they're not always like that. They have feelings too. They might even be hiding how they feel with a mask. And social anxiety? I got your back! I feel kind of socially anxious as well, I don't tend to interact with people. But when I do, they're actually pretty nice! So maybe you can relate. There's always someone who will truly understand.
Take time off and recharge, you don't have to be involved in society all the time. You can rejoin it later when you've healed.

@@user-yy3wh2uk3w Picture sleeping and feeling a presence, but the demon says this:
"Life sucks, bro. No one knows I exist no matter how hard I try. Even if I do, people don't love me and look at me like some sort of monster. Maybe I am. I don't know, man. Just looking at this human sleep give me a strange sense of hope. Reminds me of when my parents would watch me when I was in the crib. I felt like I had someone, and now I have myself. Why am I so stuck here? How did I-oh, shit, he's awake."
@@greatwavefan397 TIL I'm a demon without someone to watch. 👿
Seriously though, I tried and tried on dating sites and on reddit and didn't find the right person. I'd even live in a closet if it meant being near someone to love. Otherwise I'm not social.
A load of emotions have been weighing on my mind,with everything that's been going on. I cried so hard towards the end of the video,mainly because the little one who was reciting some beautiful lines suddenly reminded me of my 11 y/o self. I haven't cried this hard ever.
Thank you for the video,you literally uploaded it when I needed it the most.God bless you :)
I hope you feel better 💕 Keep going 💞
Don't give up. I've been feeling the same. A lot of emotions have come up and I am dealing with it with medication.
Hugs for those needing one, I find these soothing and so well done! I feel like the characters much of the time and am getting supports and feeling hopeful as i begin to experience some improvements. Times are changing - we can also change and help make times change more in favor of peace and happiness for all. Health of the collective is important!
You are right about one thing in your analysis : "we are own our worst enemies" Very true that insight!

@@juliet2292 That's exactly how I would describe it
When i was in a dark phase of my life it got better when i realized most of the things in this video.
I hope this video helps a lot of people!

Wow the poem at the end brought tears to my eyes. Im currently going through a depression and always forget to remember the postives and that things will get better eventualy 😭

Always remember this cause you are gonna come out stronger than before.
Giving my heart the time to heal has been so tough, i cant stop telling myself im lazy but this gave me so much comfort and i wanted to cry in relief, ill still have those thoughts at times but i know ill remember this, thank you from the bottom of my heart
I appreciate these type of videos . Not everyone has the resources. You’re tactic’s help me throughout the tough days. Thank you for being you .
I think that constantly challenging these negative thought patterns and how rational they really are would help. Since our minds focus on the negative more than the positive, this might be a long process since i'm currently struggling even when I try to do this, but I truly believe it can help. Playing out scenarios of how your feeling and commenting on how valid it really is goes with what you mentioned, being an observer in your life. But also acting upon this would help too, and I want to act, but I don't know how, since I keep observing but not doing. I know what to do but not how to do it.
*_Not everyone with big dreams can live "perfectly" in other's eyes. Remember that you are born special, and the path you'll take is also special. Don't ever compare yourself to others, whether they are richer or poorer than you. You're fine the way you are. Doesn't that explain why the entire universe is as random and abstract as it is? Isn't that the exact same thing we humans are?_*
_Never beat yourself up, just because you fail. It's not the end of the world as they say when you didn't get what you wanted. Something in my dreams reminded me, again and again, and I wanted to say this to you: _*_You'll get there._*
I think I may have found the comment i was looking for. Im glad youre here :)
Being more transparent is easily one of the best things I’ve ever done. I have always been my biggest bully and just letting people in has helped immensely. This channel is amazing because it explains aspects of my life that I struggle to explain. Thank you
The thing I really like about your videos, whenever I watch them, is how they're so calm and peaceful, relaying things like a supportive friend, and so uplifting at the same time. The message at the core is always simple: Maybe things are wrong now, but they can get better. And that's a message everyone needs to hear.
I also think one thing to add to this, that people need to keep in mind, is that failure, or not always performing as well as someone else at this or that, doesn't necessarily mean anything. Lots of amazing people, who helped change the entire world, seemed to be failures at first. There are so many high school dropouts that went on to do amazing things. Because the school system simply didn't work for them, and it took them a little longer, and a different environment, to reach their full potential!
We also have to keep in mind there's people like Vincent Van Gogh, who had more than his fair share of struggles. He died thinking he was a failure, because people at the time didn't see how amazing his art was, because it was different than what they knew and expected. Now he's one of the most famous artists ever. Because he never stopped trying. He kept pushing forward, in spite of everything. And it's that heart, that persistence, that got him through it all.
So whenever you're feeling down, or like everyone else is better, or that you'll never be good enough, remember that /everyone/ struggles. Lots of incredible people only got where they were or are through their struggles. You can get through this. And you might get hurt and bruised along the way, but you'll come out stronger for it.
This channel gave me a lot comfort, I' am so happy i found your videos it helped me feel better about myself.
I have lived my life in a sea of sadness, depression, and feelings of low self worth. It started at the age of seven from being told I would not go forward a grade. The reasons were spoken about, and fixable, but I only heard that I was not good enough to go forward. Having imprinted on such negative beliefs, it became impossible to evade them. Only at the age of fifty, after a 'nervous breakdown', did I figure out the cause of all my suffering. At the age of seventy three, I am now largely free of old default barriers to success and happiness.
The stains of past negative thoughts and emotions may never be completely cleared from my mind. They still weigh me down from time to time. Yet I was born to be in a far different mental state than that which I have carried. It is that truth that keeps me on track to complete a journey of healing. At seven, I believed my life was over. We live what we believe. There is a world of 'better' waiting for me, and for others in similar circumstances. I like to quote a line from the movie, "Galaxy Quest": - "Never give up! Never surrender!"
Interesting. How did the nervous breakdown help? Mine occurred at 7, too, when no one gave me a Valentine. I already knew I wasn't loved at home, but up until then, I had always felt loved by my peers. And I _wasn't_ loved by my peers ever again. It gave me a severe inferiority complex I still haven't solved at 56.
no matter how hard i try to convince myself that everything is going to be better, i just can't escape this cycle of feeling left behind and always empty.
meds don't help, and i have no one to talk to. i just bottle it up and honestly, i don't know what i need do to overcome these thoughts.
What's on your mind?
Maybe you could try to draw or write of something, let the emotions flow out other ways if you don't know how to talk about it! There are people here for you, friends, family, strangers on the internet
I hope you can get better ^^
always left with a smile on my face after these vids, thank you for making these
This actually made me cry , like I needed to hear something like this more now than ever
Even tho I've been hurt by people online I never quit. I kept going even tho some days are hard for me I didn't let the hurt get the best of me But your videos do help! and remember if y'all feel like the hurt can get the best of you don't let it. Just keep going! “Your sparkle shall glow forever, and never become dull”
i feel like im making no progress even though im constantly changing
“”Lockdowns”” suck. I thought, I will finally make some actual progress in My life, But I got even lazier and dumber.
@@TimCizej137why did you insult me
he's not insulting. he's relating
@@VengefulPolititron lol
We all go through it, and know life goes on and gets better. Yet it feels like we will always be stuck in that moment with its feelings
It's not about always being happy. It's about reaching somewhere in life. I have lost 16 years of my life trying to make a marriage work which was full of abuse. Despite my education, at 51 I have no career no children and now trying to start again. I am now married to a much older loving loveable person. He surely has brought much respite. But I am no where at all. I have no job leave aside a career. Listening to such videos picks me up even if for a while
