Gerard Way talking about depression (Bamboozle 5/5/07)

[DreameroftheDark]

There's a quote from that goes: "There is nothing worth hurting yourself over" and that quote and things like what he was saying in this video are seriously what keep me from doing things to myself that will hurt me. This is why he's on my walls. This is why i watch him on youtube all the time. Because he means hope. THEY mean hope.

[SoccerGirl29995]

I cried because his voice kept breaking and ugh he's so kind and amazing. I love you Gerard.

[LouParamore]

To all the people that ask why I love them so much, this is the answer. This and their music.♥

[EmptyWordsOfSolitude]

This made me cry, infact im still crying:'(

[ParanoiaDestroyah]

"I LOVE YOU RAY!" HAHA that guy is awesome!

[HmmmmmLemmeThinkNo]

.....Even after listening to so many of these, I still want to cut so badly.... I am alone here.... I just.... I hate going against Gerard, but....

[croczrule]

@HmmmmmLemmeThinkNo Come on, fight it. He did, I am, we are, you can. You know he's right, don't let them win. If you ever need to talk, I'm here, if it helps at all.

[HmmmmmLemmeThinkNo]

@croczrule I am, now. I am doing my goddamn best to fight. I have changed a lot in the past month.... I hope to someday be a help to others with my addiction. ( : I'm getting there. I've gone .....What is it now.... Like 4 days. Before that it was 8. ^^ Thank you very much.

[croczrule]

@HmmmmmLemmeThinkNo Wow, 8 days!? That's awesome!!! And another four in a row, that's epic! Keep it up!!! A big huge congratulations from me! Absoulute best of luck for the future!!! <3

[HmmmmmLemmeThinkNo]

@croczrule I'm working on it very very hard. ^^ I'm so happy and scared but I can do it! ( : Thank you very much. <3

[croczrule]

@HmmmmmLemmeThinkNo You definitely can! I'll be cheering you on, I know you can do it! <3

[HmmmmmLemmeThinkNo]

@croczrule Thank you. ^^ -hug-

[MsBlackParader]

thankyou, MCR gave me a new life and way t osee whyen i started lisening to them and this speech is inspirational.

[SwiftDusty1]

I dont talk to anyone when i feel depressed

I just listen to Gerard way

Fucking love you Gerard, thank you xx

[crazysquirrelfeet]

Oh. My. Fucking. God. Gerard, I love you. You are my hero. The world needs more people like you. The world needs more bands like this. I love you so fucking much. You inspire me. You have helped me through my deepest, darkest times. From finding out my siblings are both mentally disabled, and my dad going to prison, to my siblings going to the mental ward, and then to foster parents. I don't need a therapist, I have you!

[mikithecrazyperson]

Gerard is the person who pulled me out of my depression at a time that I felt I was lost for good.

MCR 4 FUCKING EVER!

[Mcrlover2565]

Wow. This is amazing. He knows how to give good advice.

[marissamusicismylife]

Gerard has saved my live.

[adamilove123]

The random dude scramming"I LOVE YOU FRANK!!!!" xD

[ParanoiaDestroyah]

@adamilove123 Did he say frank? I heard Ray lol.

[gemini2116]

This made me cr. Gerard has saved my life many many times. I love him even more for that.

[IriiSjaa]

Gee you made me cry, I love you.

Seriously, Gerard is an inspiration!

[firelifesm]

hey is the coolest and is always so supportive

[mcflyislife73]

hes so kind. they are a band who not only make amazing music, they care about their fans.

[mychemicalrocker42]

I really needed to hear this. especially today. This band write here... fucking AMAZING. they saved my life and im pretty sure im not the only one :)

[LucifersMistress616]

is this violence towards other people, or violence towards yourself he's talking about?

[KaiserElizabeth]

Most likely both.

[dilyasmel]

hey dudes, do any of you guys have like an email or an address where fans can write to the band? i'd love that x

greatly appreciated x

[GerardIsSober]

try twitter.

they reply there.

but u hav to tell thm something gd.

not like : hi come to Malta !!

peace

[dilyasmel]

hey, thnks, that was a while ago and i learnt how to do it. gerard replied actually, im quite chuffed. it was about a rape story and he was kind enough to give me advice

thanks anyways dude:D

[GerardIsSober]

hehe, im not a dude.

wow u lucky duck!!

if he ever replied to me,

i wud never b sad agin cos whenever i feel low i wud b like : gerard way talked to me!!!!

idk if id ever cum up wit anuthing smart enough to tell him. :'[

[dilyasmel]

lol sorry x yea, i feel priveliged (sp?) :D and i was posting them random crap before and didn't get nothing, i think if you write about something that truly means something to you then they qill be likely to reply x

i would have prefered to have talked to frank though (not that i don't love them all ;)

[GerardIsSober]

lol its ok.

i was too. i used to post crap.

than i realised that they actually reply bac if u post something gd.

i posted gd stuff, but still no reply.

now i fckin giv up ;'[ i <3 frank soo effin much 2.

[JustxBlink]

hey now! no need to get down. just from seeing your posts im sure you're very intellignet =)

[madchick100]

No >:(

but u can twitter them-even though lets be honest-you probaby have 2 put something reallygood 2 make them reply x

[MrsLucyWayy]

he sounds like he's crying.

he is my fucking hero.

i love him

[supermassiveXdream]

He's really amazing and I was thinking about the same thing...

[IriiSjaa]

Ít's so true

[tigergrr33]

Gee is soooo amazing ♥♥

[WeakGuy]

This is awesome and so correct!

[jdmmcr]

wow that made me feel better MCR! FOR! FUCKING! LIFE! AND! AFTER!

[MyHauntedRomance]

MCR has saved my life and many others. The band really care about there fans and that is mainly why there up there on this stage. To SAVE THE LIVES OF INNOCENT PEOPLE! and i love them all for that! There not there for the money( whoever thinks that) because if they were they would make more music videos and that( for all you MCR haters out there) is a sign of a true band.

[chinesemannn]

uhh actually they do it for tha money too. i dont think they would still be together if they didnt get money.

[MyHauntedRomance]

Well they get money like all bands but they don't do it JUST for money.They have to pay there bills and crap and have to earn money like any other person but they really care for there fans otherwise they wud make shitter songs(to get a new album out quicker) make more music video's and stuff.

[iknowboutthat]

you mean....like the black parade..oh yea.......

[PanicingDisco]

they said one of the most common misconceptions is that they're sich (and vampires) They're not rich at all. They survive, it's where they get their money to live, but it's not like they're greedy careless pop stars

[supermassiveXdream]

I don't get the real point of your comment, but I've got to say that I kinda agree with you...

[PanicingDisco]

I'm just trying to make sure ppl don't think that all mcr care about is money, and that they're rich bigs rolling in green. They obviously have some cash seeing as they can do things like the black parade is dead! and get instruments and junk, but they don't souly rely on their music to earn them money. Gerard writes comics Frank is in another band. They all have their back-ups if they have a cashcrisis. But they write the music for US! so we don't do anything stupid. To save OUR lives they care

[supermassiveXdream]

Alright... Now I understand and agree... :)

[xXLineAndSinkerXx]

I do agree, but I just wanted to point out I don't think frank's doing Leathermouth and Gerard's doing Umbrella Academy as a back-up cash plan. I doubt MCR need a back up cash plan, I think they DO have a lot of money.. they're just branching off into other side projects 'cause they enjoy it :).

[PanicingDisco]

That's true, but it also works as a back-up cash plan lol. I'm glad that they have a chance to do what they love though.

[yearOfTheGee]

Acctually they don't make as much as most other artists so the labull lets them do whatever they want becuse they get so much money out of them XD In other words they did not sell themselfs. They wen't without the money for a pretty good while to, not as long as some - they got scooped up pretty fast. It's more about geting there music out there to alot of pepole then the money.

[supermassiveXdream]

Awesome...

They're so great...

[brutalpeers]

hes like my hero no joke!i would like not even be here right now if it wasnt for mcr!!!!THANKYOU GEE, FRANK ,BO ,RAY, AND MIKEY!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gerardwayisahottii]

babygilbert0 ur a fuckin gay

gerard way is awesome

who agrees?

[SuicideComando69]

YO! count me in! hell yes!

[tricksta234]

gerard is my role model

[Chelmoe]

he really is my hero.

[iEmilyAm]

this man is one of my biggest heroes.

[babygilbert0]

what an emo and a fag he might be 'tarted too

[iEmilyAm]

how the hell can you possibly say this crap? wtf is WRONG with your ears?!? Did you even HEAR what he just said? The main jist was "Depression is a bad thing that needs to be stopped" and "no violence" and in other vids, "no cutting/suicide"

WHAT in the world?!?

[Chelmoe]

what?...what?! WHAT?!?! where you even listening to that whole thing? he said don't resort to violence. he said if it gets hard get help.

[rileyblackandwhite]

OMG I love him.

[DreadPirateAnonymous]

Ahahahaha you all promote the stereotype.

[gerardalishious]

haha that guy screamed "I LOVE YOU FRANK!", but who doesn't love him (:

[iluvmcflyxxx]

this is one reason i love him so much <3

[xxMCRvampiregurlxx]

[outrageousxpanda]

[GerardWaySavedMyLife]

[luvsurfin]

[goobermedic]

I love how they are all about helping and inspiring their fans and they reach fans of all ages and on all levels.

Be well, be safe, be blessed and MCR on!!!

[xxxmcr46xxx]

this shows he really cares about his fans i started cutting myself because i had alot of crap in my life that i just couldnt take and it was hard for me to tell anyone what was going on and stuff but now i know its better to talk to someone than keep it all inside, because eventually you will burst an dthats what happened to me

thankyou gerard =]

[xoxMCRxox13]

Well, i have to say...The first time i watched this was also the worse panick attack of my life. let me tell you, it calmed me down a hell of alot. i think it was about a week after i had lost my dad. It amazes me how much he cares. it really does. Thank you for posting this. honestly, thank you.

[AllieIsBored]

Gerard is my idol. He is so smart and takes such good care of his fans. He really cares about us :)

[funnylolhaha]

gerard is like a hero to all of his fans. He is so right. (y)

[funnylolhaha]

gerard is like a hero to all of his fans. He is so right. (y)

[FuzzehPeach]

Ahh I love gerard..hes such an awesome guy, not only because hes in the awesomest band ever and hes gorgeous..but he's also really deep and that makes me love him even more :D <3

[jenny121318]

This is the reason i stoped cutting myself too.

i never go aginst Gee's word because he speaks the truth.

i love him hes my hero.

he cares so much about his fans,

thats why he is the inly one i love so much in this world.(:

[angeldisco94]

Im proud of you Gerard is awsome im glad u made that choice

[LittleMissMyChem4eva]

This is my reason to never cut anymore.

I don't do it because that man is my hero, and I would never do anything to go against his word.

Ever.

[jmc1987jcgc]

I kno what u mean.. I stopped when I heard him do one of these... He takes such good care of his fans :-) :-)

[ETFislove]

That is exactly how I feel.

I used to cut.

But after watching this (today isn't my first time to see it, I watch it when I feel depressed) well, after watching this and hearing some other things he has said. It made me stop.

He is my hero/role model.

He's a very inspirational person, or I should say man.

;]

I love him.

[eas85]

never resort to violence, kids

[MilanaMarara]

Wait, was this in Georgia? Because I think I was at this concert. That or else he said the same thing at my concert.

[mcrismyreligion]

omg! that was so amazing!

[ieroaddiction]

they care so much for their fans.like were their kids.damn this video is so inspirational <3

[CripShat27]

So insparational!  ( the parts that I heard at least)

Fuck whoever it was that screamed while he was talkin

[LongLiveTheDead]

I love his speech, it warms me in the heart to hear him say that... It's really important and it feels so great that he, they, cares so much about their fans... I belive that every single time he holds that kind of speech it do matters to a lot of poeple in the audience.

Lots of love to Gerard and the whole MCR!

[121mysterious121]

I am a true fan, but even though I luv mcr, I wouldn't scream while he was talking. Great vid though!

[AStairwayToHeaven]

Great guy, but what pisses me off are all the tennyboppers screaming so you can't here what the man is trying to say.

[frankiero1972]

IT made me cry when he said it live at the shows I went to...it made me cry now. I love how the band cares so much about us. I don't think any band cares that much about their fans as much as My Chemical Romance does.

[slyfertail]

True. My Chemical Romance loves their fans like we're their siblings or something. They care THAT much.

[screaming1forever]

i really think the audience should shutup while hes talking.i mean really this important stuff that he wants to say.

[jenbojenbojeno]

I thought that

[partyxharder]

Ugh I know!

It's not just random stuff, It's actually IMPORTANT stuff that matters and the fans just aren't respecting what he has to say //:

[like it's way exciting to be at a MCR Concert, but they're already there and while he's talking about something that important..it wouldn't kill them not to scream for two seconds]

[screaming1forever]

thank you!

[partyxharder]

[[:

[BoUnDnBrOkEn627]

agreed

[partyxharder]

haha yep

[ChemicalsAndRomance]

This band is truely amazing, they care so much for their fans, and not just their fans for that matter. I'm so glad they give a message like this, they've helped a lot of people; I'm proud to be a MCR fan and I'm proud of them for being so incredible.

[payten2013]

I love Gerard. He is so cool...and is it just me or does it sound like Gee has a lisp????

[spongey100]

ah ok tnx....

[spongey100]

never what?...wat did he said on the end?....

[Cleopatrasdaughter]

How in the hell can he be serious about something with all the cheering and shit that's going on. It's really weird how someone can be that serious and saying something that deep with all the "I love you WOoow" you know and blah blah blah. It's just really cool how he can do that. Because i wouldn't be able to.

[MisoMySoup]

"I LOVE YOU FRANK!" xD It was so awesome that MCR did this.

[XDmcrloverXD12]

he said exactly the same thing when i met him in Birmingham. He also told me to be myself and that if anyone bull shited me then they deserved to rot in hell! ^_^ He said i seemed like a nice kid and that it was a shame that people labeled me " FUKIN GINGER EMO FAG" I LOVE YOOUUU GERARD!!

[Dudeshutup101]

I LOVE you ray! lmfao

[121mysterious121]

I think Gee is the only rockstar who would help his fans by telling them not to go to violence when they are depressed! I LUV YOU MCR!!! ROCK ON AND FIGHT THE POWER!

[SCxTrojan1]
