  • Thank you,you should be doing motivational speaking in high school's or college's,you did help me today;)

  • Provanax no prescription needed google it

  • Dave You Da Man ... But Do You Have Any Helpful Tips On How To Help A Friend Who Going Thru This ? I Don't Want To Be Pushy And Push Them Away And I Don't Want To Back Of Making Them Feel They Have No One.. So Any Tips On What To Do And Not To Do ?

  • Hi Dave yes we have quite a few things in common. Stay Strong man !!

  • Cheers man, thanks for posting this

  • thanks you have made feel like i can live i was on the edge of going over bored in my life my ship was sinking very quickly earlier today thnks so much

  • If you need help, If you feel alone, or just want someone to talk to, I have an email where you can write to me, I will write back. I'm not a stalker, I just truly want to help and let you know that you're not alone. Everything is completely anonymous, your information and emails stay private. I won't spam you. If you need someone to talk to anonymously about peer pressure, drugs, bullying, depression, or just advice, email a letter to AnonymousPenPanForHelp@gmail.c­om

  • at this exact moment, im suffering depression & anxiety. Mainly due to my alcohol withdrawal, my 2012 new year resolution was to quit drinking for a whole year.... im definitly not goin 2 break it but its busting my balls right now.......

  • I am feeling precisely the same as you had. Word for word actually. I am going to meet with my psychiatrist again for hopefully a better diagnosis. I am apparently Bi-Polar. Thank You.

  • I suffer manic depression and even with the help of my friends and family and medications I still get extremely depressed to point of being suicidal or wanting to cut myself when no one is around and sometimes when people are around and it makes every thing extremely difficult however the medication does help still having to encounter it bites!;/

  • thankyou for making this

  • You are very brave to do this video Dave! I just heard about your channel in the last 2 weeks or so. I would love to do a video like this, but I'm not that brave. Keep up the good videos into 2012

  • When it comes to depression, I have cases in my teenage life where I have been badly bullied in school and having the sense of great sadness and depression. Like you Dave everyday was a nightmare. Having to go into a scary environment with students that target me as a victim to them is not the best situation to be for your school life.

    The problem where I live is that there is no justice for wrong things happening. No one knows the meaning of 'go away I want to be with myself for a while'. But

  • Bravo Dave. I had terrifying panic attacks when I was13 and had to be taken out of school, I was a total wreck. The feeling of imminent death and overpowering dread rings so true to what I experienced. It was 98' [i.e.no internet] and friends, family, even counselors didn't know what to do with me; apart from drug me up of course. Eventually it was the words of my year head which set me on the path to recovery; she told me to get out, do things and exercise. A year later, I was back in school :)

  • awesome vid man! love your ideas and ur story on how you got through anxiety & depression. I've been dealing with both for the past 3 years and i'm slowly but surely working through it. Thanks again for posting this video, its going to and prob. already has inspired a lot of ppl

  • I like how you mention that we can explain something like breaking our leg but not when something that goes wrong with our minds. It's hard to explain mental illness to someone who doesn't have it.

  • God bless you, Dave. Your video and your words are truly encouraging. I'm trying to fight my anxiety and depression without medication but I would still like to talk to a doctor. I have learned that family and friends are the most important thing to have in times like this. Being alone is the worst thing for anxiety and depression. I always feel better after talking to a close family member about how I feel and what I think. I'm running out of space, so I'll finish by saying, thank you, Dave.

  • Thankyou for your video, really feel at such a low ebb where you dont know where to turn and feel quite desperate, and its given me a little comfort, so thankyou.

  • You have the right to be happy!!!

  • You fucking legend. I was having a little drunken resurgence of the old blue demon there, and you helped. Thanks :)

  • Dave thank you soo much, for your words and encouragement : )

  • I think your video actually helped a lot god bless you

  • This is exactly what's happened to me. I had a panic attack just this past May, and ever since I've been trying to get help from the right psychologist. It's definitely not easy to beat depression, but I've already tried implementing things in my life that can help me cope, like exercise and being around people more often. It does help, but there's still progress to be made.Thank you for sharing this. It's difficult enough to talk even to loved ones, much less all of us, about it!

  • Dave!! Right as I was about to click on yet one more depression video I thought to myself "should I ought to be doing that as it will make me more depressed" lol . Then when I hear your opener it was so funny!! Yes you help so much ..big TY!!

  • thank you so much for making this video.

    would you suggest being alone or being with my "friends" who i don't actually like?

  • Wow.... So glad I watched your video... and your right life is serious enough as it is but we don't need to make it any more than is already is! and the whole thing you said about Happiness is your right... WOW... powerful .... I've had this mentality that my happiness is only worth anything if I earn it or deserve it some how... So thanks Dave for sharing your wisdom and shedding some light on the condition that effects you, me and so many others! You totally made a difference in my day Thanks

  • Hey Dave, I don't even have to watch the rest of the video to know your situation and all i can say is to turn to God and Jesus. I've been watching your videos for a long time now and have always wanted to share to you His power and I really hope you consider next time your feeling down to talk to somebody you know that is a christian or I hope that God leads a christian to you to encourage you. and I hope in some way i've encouraged you. :) God bless.

  • Thank you for this video. I always worry about thing tomorrow, the next month or even five years from now. Not to be excluded my past ass well. I've never gotten to the point that I wanted to kill my self, but I do wish I could just forget it all. After this video I will go and seek help for dealing with my past and other things I'm not talking about in this comment. Thank you.

  • Hi Dave popleycrew sent me, I also suffer Depression, But i now can cope with it, I do agree with everything you said.

  • Im glad people have to courage to talk about it, and yes society is like you said, breaking your leg is normal but having breakdowns emotionally is not allowed cause seen as weakness and yet normal as well.

  • Thankyou for posting this video it was a great help to me and probably many others. I too suffer from a mild case of depression every now and then. I found talking about my feelings and thoughts helps.. but being a bloke can be differcult but you have to do it sometimes.

    I like your honesty and courage to talk about your own personnal feelings.

    All the best to you.

  • Great video. I'm going through exactly the same thing right now, I have trouble with panic attacks and anxiety and low periods as well, I'm trying CBT too, hasn't helped much yet but it's early days.

  • Thanks, Dave. This is what I needed :)

  • Thanks for the vid. it was nice to hear from someone who really understands how depression feels I am told to just buck up and they can't seem to understand its not that simple or I wouldn't be in this place.

  • Also, I want to tell you that you say the words I wish I could say as well as you do lol. I'm posting my latest video as a response to this one because I feel you say some of the things I either hadn't thought to say, or didn't know how to say. Thank you very much =]

  • I've just stumbled across your videos, and I believe you've given me an epiphany. I never knew that OCD could manifest itself in the way you describe. I believe I identitfy with this very much. I just want to thank you for posting this video. It is highly encouraging to know that someone out there feels the way I do. I'm often told to "just stop worrying" or "you need to calm down and be less stressed". I believe you, if anyone, can understand my frustration when being told these things.

  • Thanks Dave.

  • thanks dave ;_;

    u made me cry, but happy =)

  • People should not be ashamed of the possibility that they may need to go on some kind of medicine. It doesn't mean you are weak, and there shouldn't be a stigma, least of all from yourself, since you are the one who may need it.

    The mind (personality) and the body are not independent from one another. Your thoughts can affect your physiology and body chemistry. Changes in your physiology and certain areas of your brain can affect your personality and feeling of well-being directly.

    Good luck!

  • Is it just me or am I the only person who knew they were having an anxiety attack the first time i had one? Everyone says that they thought that they were dying or having a heart attack? I'm 16 an knew it was an anxiety attack. Oh well =)

  • Thank you for sharing your experience Dave. Very interesting and informative video indeed...you're doing swell on your new channel!!

  • Amazing, thanks for being so open Dave!

  • Great video! Dave, it takes a lot for someone to talk about this subject and provide your personal stories. Looking forward to more videos!

  • Man, this is a good vid. Thanks!

  • Dave, i love watching lack78 and this new channel is just as good... I have so much respect for you, i have depression at times because i stutter, it can be hard... anyways, just want to say thank you for sharing your experiences, Rodge

  • Thank you for this vid and i love your courage. It's a crazy coïncident that im reading CBT for dummies at the moment. One thing i like to say..

    don't assume that your having a genetic disorders because you grew up with your family and took their BEhaviours over. Thats actually the core of the problem if you were born at a healthy family you would have taken their good behaviour unconciously.

  • @erdal0 Amazingly i've read the same book.

  • @DaveKnowsStuff Oh nice. I recommend you read psychohistory and books from alice miller.

  • I can see that you are very open about it all and thats good and it good to see that you have moved on and you working it out, i have been there a little my self and i got myself out of it, I look back now and find it very sad that some people don't find help and end it all in this day and age,

  • I really like you Dave =). I wish I could meet you.

  • Thanks Dave, your a really great guy and I hope you have a great life. You certainly do have a right to be here! It's nice to know that others have been through it. =)

  • Great video. I know how you feel about panic attacks. The first time I had a bad one a friend took me to the ER. I literally thought that I was having a heart attack. Still not sure why I have them, but they certainly come less often, so that's good. Anxiety and depression are terrible things, and although the world is full of many terrible things, there are just as many good ones to make up for them and give one cause for hope. There is always tomorrow, and that can be enough for anyone.

  • Phenomenal video Dave!

    I enjoyed listening to what you've been through and how you managed to vanquish the issues you were struggling with.

    I had severe depression, and ended up in a psychiatric hospital. After a few months of medication and going to a psychologist, I have managed to get back on top of all the circumstances that life throws at us.

    Thank you for this video, I appreciate that you care about us as subscribers, and those with depression. Not enough people do these days :-/

  • Paint your wals in a bright, saturated color.. Something like FF0000 or FF9900.. It has been proven that bright, warm colors bring up the mood.. Thats what I did and, I gotta say, it works!

  • Great video Dave.I also went throught depression and came out the other side.Life can be tough but there is always tomorrow.

  • good job dave im reaally impressed id never be able to talk like that !!!

  • good job dave im reaally impressed id never be able to talk like that !!!

  • I was on Remeron and I would have these hilariously bizarre dreams every night. I was looking forward to dreaming every night because it was so entertaining. Sometimes I'd wake up and say to myself "lol, what the hell was THAT about?!" And I'd just start laughing and go back to sleep. Good times man, good times!

  • @likethepear I'm on half of one of those (15 mg) and I just have really bizarre dreams! Haha, it's cool to know that other people have the same experience. I think last night I dreamed about Australia running out of water and everyone was at war. And I can also sleep now! Yay! =D

  • @insomniac1893 Haha, sounds like a crazy dream. I dreamed one time that a bear was in my apartment and my mom came over and beat it up! She really kicked it's ass! And yes, Remeron is a great help at getting to sleep.

  • Man, it takes balls to come up on YouTube and say this stuff. Fair play

  • Good stuff Dave. Subscriber for life right here, on Lack78 and this channel. Great words, and a great personality, you deserve every success.

  • Dave, I applaud your courage and honesty in being willing to speak so openly about a very private part of your life. You never speak "crap" as you put it. Take your own advice and know you are worthy and valued as a person. I, for one, am grateful for the opportunity to see and hear you speak. Than you very much for being you.

  • @blarf001 Great comment! Thank you and surely thanks for the poster Dave!

  • this help a lot,

    I tend to get depressed about 3-4 times a month and this depression I have got really bad last year to the point where I was thinking about.. you know what.

    Not really sure how I managed to deal with it to be honest, but straight to the point this video helps me out a lot and now I think I know a better way of dealing with it.

    Thanks

  • Peace Dave.

    It can be difficult to convey feelings and emotions.

    Thanks for sharing

  • :)..

  • I think Dave should become a shrink.

  • Really great video. Inspiring words.

  • Thanks Dave,

    Cheers

  • good vid. my doctors only ever wanted to prescribe hardcore drugs so i gave up on them.

  • Well said.

  • Tell this to the Kilkenny fans. =P

  • I like seeing the other side of you Dave. It kinda puts an extra dimension on LACK78 also.

  • Great video.

  • You da man Dave!

  • such good advice, we all deal with depression sometime in our life and I think this video will help a lot of people Dave and I think I speak for a lot of people when I say, thank you.

  • me to but its in the mind ihate hiper ventaltion i feel your pain

  • I had a panic attack when I came to a Army camp for the first time when I was 16..

  • Good video as usual!

  • I know where Dave is coming from. Just one year ago i was suffering from random seasers and i felt so trapped. I couldn't do anything about it because my doctor thought it wouldn't happen again but it did. After several months of this i had one in Calgary on my brother's birthday. The next day i was put on tegritol, and it's still a bit of a struggle because it was very traumatic. But a year later, i feel back to normal.

  • I admire your honesty Dave

  • Good video Dave totally agree with you. Keep up the good videos.

  • ur one of my favorite youtubers

  • Pretty "intense" video... Good advice! Fortunately I'm not really depressed yet. Too young to depress I Guess... ;D

  • Very very good advice. i hope this help's lot's of people. Good work Dave

  • Awesome Video Dave. Thanks for sharing. I hope this helps people too.

  • this is pretty deep man. i admire you for sharing this man. i know i couldn't :D
