“I’m sorry I need help.” “We all need help.”
Absolutely heartbreaking. Truly one of the best moments from the show
I couldn't agree more, "We all need help" is just the perfect response and so unbelievably true!
Told my mum at this age that I was depressed and needed help. She told me I had a good life and had nothing to be depressed over. She didn't know some of the stuff I'd gone through, didn't see how certain parenting decisions affected me. Dad put a stop to that quickly - "she's your daughter; you support her until she's either better or proven to be lying."
Now my mum is one of my strongest supports systems. I'm very thankful that Dad changed her mind.
How lucky to have a father call your mom out. You’ve got a good one.
Some parents think because you have a family,food and a house that you’re not depressed or have anything to worry about and think they know you more than you know yourself…
“I’m sorry I need help” is such a sad sentence. It shouldn’t be a wrong doing to need and ask for help ever😔
It's common for parents to be in denial about their children
It is for Asian parents. My parents are English and believed me when I said I was struggling
In America and the UK, if you have a debilitating mental illness, you're sympathised and cared for. In China, you're damaged goods.
@@rosierennie5867that’s all person tbh not Asian and it depends on how parents are so it’s not based on nationality
I’m American and my parents don’t believe in “mental help” or anything and believed I was just asking for attention and still to this day are like that. It’s awful
@@crossingvalley9947yep
My daughter suffered through a spot of depression when she entered high school. I’m really glad that I listened to her and got the help she needed. She is thriving in high school now.❤
Thank you for caring and helping your daughter. There are no spots of depression, it is a hard experience to both understand and cope with. You are a good parent. My parents never allowed me to express my pain and instead forced me to go away to another country giving me a one way ticket and $50 so my freedom was controlled. Bless you. Peace to the World.
Your daughter is stronger than you think, but she will always need help always and I'm glad she has a parent like you.great job.
I hate that in some cultures you're not 'allowed' to be depressed. A lot of the older generation either doesn't believe in it or refuses to accept it so they push that onto their children which only causes more issues. How depression can be shameful is a mystery, I hate when they ask 'what do you have to be depressed about' sometimes it's something that has been with you for years and it's nothing something you can always express like as the girl said without being judged.
It’s not right, but it’s reasonable that older people would feel that way. They had much harder lives than we do. Rates are a lot higher now than before, but the real question is whether or not it’s because of more awareness (and diagnosis) or actual factors. Nobody can answer that question.
@@Sniperboy5551 its not for you to decide which generation had harder lives because thats not applicable to depression. Everyone can have a hard life regardless of age, generation, culture etc. and even if you are rich, have never gone through trauma, have a great family, you can STILL be depressed. Depression doesn’t discriminate. Life difficulties can cause depression or make it worse, but clinical depression is there regardless of how your life is. Its a permanent diagnosis that you still have even if your life hasnt been hard.
My friend died from jumping off his balcony. The mom at the memorial said - he thought he could fly and slipped off. But didn't believe he took his own life. Her denial was almost more heartbreaking than him dying... she also refused to believe he was gay. Some cultures are really confusing to me. When it comes to helping your kids- believe them. 💙🙏
“We all need help.”
If only people took that very sentence seriously. Mental illness is NOT something anyone should face in their lives, especially kids. So many people turn a blind eye to the presenting symptoms or even people simply tell them, and that’s one of the reasons many take the end of the road that we hope to avoid. Hopefully, one day, such a diagnosis of depression will be taken SERIOUSLY without empty promises 😞
This episode hits harder when you feel the same way but lots of times our parents don't magically understand and give us the love and support we so desperately need at the moment.
What a lovely fantasy. I would love for someone to show and convince my mom in one day how much she has hurt/she is hurting me and for her to break down and fully embrace me like the mother did here. Such a lovely fantasy.
How are you doing now? Are you ok? Keeping yourself safe? I am affected by Major Depressive Disorder, but I’ve had some major duty therapy over the years, and I am better able to handle it now.
You are not alone
I wish that as well, but I see this more like she's in the hospital so she'll say yes and be understanding in this moment and then slip back into her old ways when they leave or sometime down the line. Unfortunately it's common for people to do this and it's even more damaging especially if it's a generational thing, cause that doesn't go way without professional help and that takes even longer convincing.
Waiting for something like that will only harm your recovery in the long run. Don’t wait on others, take action yourself and rise above it. I know it’s hard, but we can’t live our lives waiting for some kind of apology.
“What's the bravest thing you ever said?” asked the boy. “Help” said the horse. “Asking for help isn't giving up,” said the horse, “it's refusing to give up.”
I HAVE THIS BOOK!! LOVE IT!
Oh my god she’s such a good actress she really depicted this well tbhh
If she's over 18, it doesn't matter. Even if under parent's insurance, they don't have access to the private information.
There actually are ways to get an itemized list from your insurance and medical bills. I actually do it for work to help people get a lot of bills removed
It depends. They can still get itemized bills for insurance purposes, that isn’t a HIPAA violation.
They'll be asking questions as to why certain things will be happening. And even though the doctors are bound to keep quiet, the daughter won't be able to lie to her parents because she doesn't want to be seen as dishonest.
I'm so thankful that I can talk to my mum about anything and everything.
This scene always makes me cry cause I’m going through almost the exact same thing.
😢 talk to someone if you have any friends it would help
Please take care of yourself, it’s a hard journey, but it gets better.
Do you want to be friends? I can always lend an ear
@@kierra2000 thank you but no i'm doing better now. Really appreciate you and everyone who commented though!
I know it’s not much, but I’m sending you a virtual hug. ❤
I lost my dad to lung cancer when I was 15. It was the worst pain I had ever felt in my life. I slipped into a very deep dark depression for years and tried to end my own life 3 separate times because I missed him so much and wanted to be with him. My mom ended up walking in and caught me each time. First time was just months after his death, I tried hanging myself in our garage. Second time was 2 years after his death, I tried pills. Third time was 4 years after his death, I tried self harm. After that the depression started to get more manageable and by the 7 year mark of his death I finally felt like I could breath and finally move on. Depression is real, it's a silent killer, and you can't crawl out of that hole alone
Yeah know your pain. As someone who's been bullied for most of their life, have no friends, self harming, having suicidal thoughts it kills you inside and you feel that there is no way out of it
I understand her pain. I had to fight for years with my mother to get me into therapy. She didn’t listen, she thought I was a hypochondriac. But I fought hard and eventually she listened when I got other family members involved. But then she used my therapist as a weapon. She said my therapist was getting tired of me and used my therapist to get me to do things that I refused to do because I had no energy to do them. And after awhile I stopped going to therapy because my mother exhausted it. But then I started harming myself and I knew I had to go back. I asked my mom for weeks to call my therapist and she continently forgot to make the appointment. It wasn’t until I broke down in front of her and my father telling them I harmed myself and I needed help. My father was furious with her for forgetting to make the appointments. I eventually went back to therapy and a few months after that my mother died. And as hurtful as it sounds a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I haven’t harmed myself since…
Please, if you guys are in pain don’t stop fighting. Giving up is never the answer.
You're not alone. I was happy the day my mother died, I was finally free, I felt wings growing at my back. Now I very rarely remember I ever had a mother. It's ok to feel the way we both feel.
@@minonaano2763 I loved my mother and sadly the way she passed away caused me a lot more trauma and more hardships ahead. But even though I loved her because she was my mother I disliked her as a person. She was a narcissist and she was ill, psychically and mentally and took it out on me. I’m glad there’s somebody else out there who understands how I feel.
@@panda_cute8856 , I felt instant relief. I don't miss her, I didn't love her anymore and the fact she was my biological mother didn't excuse what she has done to me.
@@minonaano2763Well said. Proof that having a biological relationship has nothing to do with love or caring.
I am so sorry for what you been through, hope with all my heart that yoi are better and feel loved now more than ever. I send a huge hug.
at least her mum understand. the pressure of wanted to tell ur parents and u cant cause they dont understand
As a Asian that’s suffering from depression my parents don’t believe in depression
We have it worst in nigeria
@@imudiaojo774No where close to an Asian household...it's like living inside a pressure cooker!
@@hrv8008 trust me it worst in Africa
I'm really sorry. My Asian friend died and his mother lied about how it happened because she was too in denial. Hearing her say what she did hurt more than him being gone. :( I hope things get easier for you 💙💙💙
Being in denial about your kids only gonna make them suffer more and probably can end FATAL… faster acceptance better outcome 🙏🏾
I was depressed very early in life as a child. After my mom, who i did love very much and miss her still, died. It came to me that all the abuse she put me through caused my body to produce chemicals in my body to make me not hurt and even when i broke down one day and cried for days. Literally i cried myself to sleep three days in a row and only had short periods of not crying. She was happy i had stopped as she was worried but i was still abused. Its been 8 years and im still not whole.
Someone needs to give that girl a hug! If someone else won’t I WILL!?! ❤💗❤️💗❤️💗❤️
I can definitely relate to this. I've experienced what I think is persistent depressive disorder (a milder form of depression) since middle school (I'm 28 now). My parents believe that depression is, in my mother's words "just a state of mind, and you can pull yourself out of it." If I ever told my parents I "felt depressed" they would scoff. I went to therapy a bit in college through school services, but that didn't last long because it was at the tail end of my college career. I've also realized I might have autism, so I'm trying to find a psychologist who specializes in diagnosing adults with autism and takes my insurance provider. It takes a while so I still am waiting on a diagnosis.
Well, I wish you luck with finding out about your diagnosis ❤️🩹🍀
(Plus if your diagnosis with autism, you not only one 🧩)
I pray that God is with u and don’t give up and strong up❤❤❤ Your not alone.. Stay calm and Pray on 🙏🥰🥰🦾✝️
🙏🏾
I was diagnosed with anhedonia and GAD. Pulled myself out of the anhedonia because the therapists were useless. I was diagnosed about 7 and a half years ago or so now. It was only about 2 years ago that my mother half accepted my diagnosis and was willing to attribute it to my diagnosis rather than "you're over reacting". My country don't give people under 18 any medication for mental health. My parents firmly believe in no medication so I was forced to suffer unnecessarily for almost 7 years until the start of this year where I finally got placed on anti depressants to help with my treatment.
She still does not believe that GAD is chronic and that there is no cure because my relatives had some sort of anxiety problem as well (none of them diagnosed) and they made do.
I was told that it was in my medical record that I "may have autism", which I'm sure my formerly anti vax parents (who initially skipped over vaccines for me because they were worried could cause autism but some weeks later got them anyway) would be very much against the claim of so I just don't mention it. Who cares if I do or don't have it anyway? Even with that label I'm still the same person as before and it's not like autism is something that needs to be cured.
It's a long battle to feel that your struggles are valid. Most of their change of heart has been after a long struggle of accepting that this wasn't a battle that would be won in 6 weeks, that it wouldn't go away by itself, that some of these things will be life-long, and very little they can do to make it better.
I'm 19, had everything ripped away from me because of these disorders, but I've fought one off completely by myself and I've been fighting the other ever since.
Don't give in because you feel that somebody else is unwilling or unaccepting. At the end of the day this is your battle to fight and if you waste all of your energy fighting what those around you may or may not think then you won't have much energy left to fight this and do the things you want to do.
It's disheartening when the people around you don't seem to understand you or seem to brush your struggles under a rug and dance on top of it but yea, your life, your battles, your choices. As much as nobody wants to face these things, everybody has to fight their own battle to get to where they want to be at some point. Keep doing that and you'll be just fine.
Whether you have it or not, you should try to deal with it. Plenty of us are clinically depressed, but relying on meds is the worst thing anyone could do. You’re not alone.
The ending was so heartwarming and tearful to watch
The cruelest and most insidious thing about depression is it warps our perception of the truth. Passing sad thoughts become massive dark clouds and long happy thoughts get dulled as we perceive that happiness as purely temporary. We believe its our fault. That no one would love us if we tell them just how depressed we are.
We can't see reality through our perception. The reality is real loves endures all and wants nothing but the best. All happiness is fleeting, but that's what makes it special. Everyone gets sad sometimes and has times they feel down for a while. It doesn't have to define them. THAT is the truth that depression robs you of and it's not your fault. That is why it's important you find help. Someone outside your perception who can keep those thought distortions in check.
Remember you are not alone
We all need help sometimes
Its so sad hearing her say "im sorry, i need help."
Nobody should have to apologize that they need help. Especially from something they didnt choose 💙
This hits hard for me. I live and work in China and mental health is such a taboo subject here still. Like I've had parents of my students tell me literally "theyre not sad, they're just pushing themselves to get good grades and thats why theyre tired" after their child literally says in a meeting "I'm feeling too much pressure and im drowning in it"
Top-notch acting all around.
At 17, around 11pm one night, everything was coming to a head. I couldn't articulate the multiple traumas I'd been through to my parents yet--it was a long time coming.
So it all came out in one massive panic attack with hallucinations of blood dripping from the ceiling, down the walls, and hearing non-stop, creepy whispers that weren't there.
I begged to go to the hospital because I didn't feel safe in my own head and was terrified that I was losing my mind. They said "Just try to calm down. It's late. We'll go to the hospital in the morning. Just close you're eyes and get some sleep."
So they went to bed, and I stayed in the living room curled up in a ball, shaking and crying, until I finally fell asleep at 7am from exhaustion. That only lasted an hour before the woke me up and said "If you still need to go to the hospital, let's go."
Needless to say, I spent 8 hours in a small room being questioned by two doctors, and was sent home with a prescription for an anti-depressant, an anti-anxiety med, and a sedative for sleeping. No therapy was offered. No one even bothered to ask, not even the doctors, why I was experiencing this, just shut me up with pills and it wasn't until years later as an adult, that I finally got the real help I needed.
Over a decade later, I'm the best I've ever been, but will always remember. If I ever have kids, they will never experience the same silencing.
Neuro feedback can be a good "brain stimulation" excuse. Neuro feedback is sometimes followed by counseling or therapy. Then she is not lying, just not telling everything. It's probably easier than lying I think. At least in my case, which I also feel lying to my parents is a serious moral crime when I was young
I suffer from Depression was diagnosed at elementary school age and I told my mom once I got to high school how I felt and that I didn't want to be here anymore and she got me the help I needed right then and there and now I'm on an antidepressant and I'm feeling a lot better now that I got the help that I needed
My first thought when watching was how in most media you often see this kind of stuff on a surface level, like in a comedy like American Dad or King Of The Hill. At first you think of the stereotype of strict Asian parents making A+ money kids, whose whole life is based on grades and achievements. But this episode takes it to a realistic viewpoint where it's almost scary how that stereotype can be in real life. This felt so real, the expressions were real, the dilemma was real. I actually know people who went through this kind of stuff back in high school where they took a bunch of AP classes, did sports, clubs, etc. Depression can come in many forms, this just shows that people who aim to become perfectionists have this problem. Nobody is perfect, are imperfections are what make us unique and perfect in our own way.
This is the 1st time I’ve ever heard actress Wai Ching Ho(Mrs. Chiang) speak in Mandarin, because usually she’s speaking Cantonese, her being from Hong Kong and all.
I remember her as Kim on OLTL in the 80s. She has aged incredibly well.
I watched this and my heart aches, cause both my sons went to school with Oriental girls that one tried to commit suicide twice when she was in high school, that was my eldest son‘s friend. My youngest son‘s friend, that girl was being pressured by her family to be a doctor and she didn’t want to. She told them for years that she wasn’t wanting to be a doctor, but as she was getting higher up in high school, her parents were trying to figure out what university she was going to go to to become a doctor and she reminded them she wasn’t going to be a doctor. Then they pulled out that they were the parents card and all that they had done for her and that when they get older, they want the same life that they have now that would mean that she had to earn a lot of money. That’s why they were gonna push her to be a doctor. She was meeting friends at the skytrain and in front of her two friends she jumped in front of the train and it killed her. I was furious that parents would drive their child so much grief that she would commit suicide by jumping in front of a train. She was a pretty girl too happy when she was away from home never wanting to go back if I could’ve would’ve let her stay with us, but of course that would be wrong and her parents would demand that she come home.
I wish parents like this would understand what they’re doing to their children. The girl that had tried to commit suicide twice is now a chemist, earning a lot of money and is miserable and hates her life, but her parents are very happy. How can parents be happy when they know that their child isn’t happy in their life , because of the pressure they put on their child to become that doctor. I guess you have to be that race to understand how they think.
This was really relatable, i felt so recognized and I know so many asian children probably did🥺
I chose my own happiness over my parent and others happiness! PERIOD!
Wow! I will check out this show. So well done.
Last year our youngest son, our later in life gift was 11 and started middle school. One bully made his life a living hell. Our son tried to advocate for himself and we we were advocating for him but his school didn’t care. This bully sent death threats to him, me and even our lab pup. It was a mess. We got him into therapy asap. We finally got him moved to the other 6th grade team and those teachers and students were awesome. But in late spring, early summer we could see he wasn’t doing well. He wasn’t eating much, pale and just not ok. He finally broke and told me how he truly felt and he had been telling his therapist and us what he thought we wanted to hear. He had spent so much energy being happy, funny, likable and helpful there was nothing left in the tank for him. He had been having nightmares of the boy breaking into our home and gutting him as the bully threatened. From June to mid October I spent every day trying. Holding him as he cried. Letting him vent. But keeping him busy with the activities he wanted to do with his friends. But he started to self harm and tried to unlive himself which resulted in trips to the ER. We had changed therapists over the summer and he really seemed to like the new therapist. But he’s very good at deflection and shutting down. We had a ER action plan. The new principal, new vp and new therapist at his school were great. I can’t help but wonder where we would be today if those people had been in charge last year. The bully went on to get in trouble last year and this year. His behavior is alarming but his mother thinks he is the victim and there is NO ACCOUNTABILITY on his end. His ER Action Plan said if he couldn’t keep himself safe at school he needed to go to the nice school counselor and was allowed to call his therapist. We had gotten a 504 Plan approved this year which the lead school counselor had talked us out of last year. With the trips to the ER we were worried the decision making could be taken out of our hands and we didn’t want that. I had asked a few professionals we know for advice if and only if things kept going south and he needed inpatient care. They all suggested the same place. After the last self harm incident our son asked for more help. He is at the center now. It’s a combination of a boarding school and therapy. He will be able to continue to work up in advanced school work. He will be there for 5-7 months. I’ve been through a lot in life but leaving my son there was one of the hardest things I’ve been through. He’s just a child but he has so much unresolved anger toward the bully, some teachers and even us. There is a lot of guilt on our end. Hindsight is 20/20 but we’re all undergoing individual and family therapy. He can’t come home for any holidays. There is a open door policy and we can go there. We’ve been visiting every other weekend because it’s a long drive and day. We even take his lab to him to visit. We can’t be selfish but I am so sad that I can’t really be trusted in public. It feels a bit like grieving. He only told his 3 close/best friends with our permission and involvement. Two have ghosted him and one is amazing and kind as are his parents. There is still a huge stigma attached to emotional health issues. We only want our boy to find his confidence. Have some hope. And want to live. We’ve been trying desperately to keep our son from being a statistic.
Oh my I'm exhausted just reading this! I can't imagine what it's like for you and your son! But it sounds like you're doing everything possible for your son and yourself, thanks for sharing your story, I'm sure it will help someone else to see that it is possible to get help with the support of friends and family.
So sorry to hear about all these terrible times you and your son have been going through. I have just left a comment on this video about how a particular diet can help hugely with mental healths issues such as depression so you might want to read that.
On another front, as a mother myself, I can't imagine how much trauma you as a parent is going though let alone your son. I imagine this isn't an option for you but I home educated my three sons. None of them ever went to school and they made great friends with other home educated kids. We've had young people come to our home educating community and our events and get togethers and one in particular I remember telling me about how much exhausting work she had been going through in helping her teenage son to deal with being bullied at school. Her son ended up clinically suicidal an a complete mess. The mum had never heard of home schooling. She found our group and took him out of school and home schooled him and his life completely changed. He got away from the bullies and absolutely thrived schooling at home surrounded by other home schooled families. His mum told me that home schooling saved his life. Not sure if it's possible for you but might be worth a thought. We have many parents home schooling who have quit their jobs (assuming they have a partner working) but also single parents working from home whilst home schooling and you would be amazed how may qualified school teachers also home school their own kids. I've been friends with school teaches who refuse to send their own kids to school and either their partner home schooled them (whilst they themselves taught other people's kids at school) or they themselves stopped teaching at school so they could teach their own kids at home. As I said, even single parents have managed to work full time and still home school their kids especially if those kids are now teenagers.
Best of luck for your family.
@@AnneFS I don’t have a spleen and during Covid I was undergoing breast cancer treatment so our son complete third grade virtually and all of fourth grade virtually. Our school district has permanently set up a virtual academy which we will be using when our son comes home. We will continue with socializing and sports. He feels like an only child because his brothers are 25 and 22 years old. Thank you for your reply, support and advice.
Amazing scene and amazing acting. Great job!
Doctor Fromm has come a long way since BREAKER HIGH 😅😅😅
Great job on the action
I’ve suffered with depression and anxiety for many years. Only a few years ago I was diagnosed with Autism. I manage my depression better now because I understand why I struggled to cope with the world around me, and I don’t put so much pressure on myself to fit in. Mental health is complex, and often stigmatised, it leads to physical ailments, and irreparable damage that could be avoided if we just learn to talk to each other.
I was not expecting to cry today. I wish my mother would understand how she's made me feel for the past decade, but I'm too bitter to communicate with her (knowing she'll just laugh in my face). I've become cold and uncaring to my parents and will be apathetic once I move out with my sister. I'm only here to pay bills and save money. A part of me wants to reconcile but cutting them out of my life screams louder. Some of y'all are gonna take that chance to reconcile and maybe have a better relationship with your loved ones. I'm not, I'm done taking chances. To each their own ❤
Yaay for Anupam Kher!
Good job
This is extremely prominent in many communities. The stigma and shame, whay i dealth with and i also made tge decision not to seek help due to what my father would think, even though my mother wanted me to get the help i needed...it wasnt after my failed suicide attempt, one of many that my own father finally understood what i needed to do for my mental help, while even now he still holds some stigmas, he makes a better effort in understanding me and helping me in the emotional support i always wanted, its what i do for not just myself, but for my kids, my amazing partner and fiancé and soon wife. We always need help and never should be afraid to ask for it.
I’ve gone through this too, I waited until I had my own insurance before I could get my diagnosis. I’m still struggling with getting my parents to understand. This was so heartbreaking, but thank you for showing this ❤
Hopefully your parents will understand. It may take awhile. But even if they don't get it, your health comes first❤
Sadly it is not uncommon in black, hispanic and Asian cultures for there to be a stigma around mental illness. Where I came from depression was treated like a "luxury emotion". Something only the rich or non minority was expected and accepted for experiencing. Something you only felt if you had " too much time on your hands or werent "praying hard enough". I hid my soul crushing depression ( which I began to develop in first grade due to PTSD and several traumatic events I experienced before the age of 8) for a long time out of shame. I would always get responses like "what you got to be sad about you got food and a roof over your head". My people came through a lot of suffering where they were expected to endure in silence. Misery (especially emotional misery)came to be accepted as a part of life and not something that should be worked on to eradicate. For many in my community simply not starving and having n basic shelter was a reason to not be depressed. But we DONT have to live that way anymore! Too many people still don't realize that food and shelter are not the only human needs for a healthy life/mind. I'm glad more people/cultures are giving themselves and their children a chance to escape this generational curse of silencing our mental health.
This is sad. And SO dangerously untrue.
I can relate
Yeah
😢😢😢
my mommy issues are screaming
Depression is an illness, NOT A CHARACTER FLAW.
Funny how the guy that plays dr. Kapoor play the father of jesmender on Bend it like beckham his daughter got into college in the states for sports but also medical then she played a role on ER i believe or Chicago hope before they left the aire
Trust me, talk therapy works❤️🌈
Irl you’d have to throw yourself in front of a train for doctors to take your depression seriously 😂
They are acting like House XDDD
I thought was going to be a "You asking for help! You dishonor our famiry! *speaks in oriental talk no one can understand*.
The parents step out and say "That thing is your problem now".
Wasn't this the mom in house?
Is that Anupam Kher?
Anupam kher ??
Sadly, this is not a realistic representation of Asian parents. They would rather have their children die than be shamed.
You mean unrealistic
