I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder just before I spent 1 1/2 months in Laurel Ridge. Blue October and Justin have been so incredibly much of an inspiration to me and to find this out today just put me in awe. I was so incredibly shocked to know that he si from houston, like me, and went to the same psych ward that I lost my sanity in. He just describes this disability that is so hard to describe so well I just I fall into this hole and his poetry guides me out. I can't explain it its amazing.
Wow Justin. This is the first time i have seen this video. I my self have been there three times. It is the oddest thing to be locked up. Thank you for being there in song for me.
Justin, you are so honest. I cried the entire interview. You are a STRONG person for being able to share this with everyone. I love you for it. You are not fragile, you are STRONG. I don't know what I would have done in your place. Thank you for sharing and being so forthright.
john lomax said hes a big freaken liar and that he is lying about being sick and that he pretends to be sick for the kick of seeing people believe it :( if thats true that breaks my heart because he seems so genuine :(
justin played this song last night at the houston show. i had never heard it before but god was it amazing. inspiring even. i think its really cool how down to earth he is and just very chill. justin's definately the man
Who'd ever want to leave Justin? He's fucking amazing. He's very deep, and you know you could have actual conversations with him. ;_; Goddd.. that was so sad though.
I love listening to Justin. He is such a great speaker and when I go crazy I listen to him and it calms me lol it sounds weird but I love the way he speaks. And he has a cute laugh ^_^
justin. thank you. thank you... so much for this. i had an experience like this recently where the love of my life left me for another girl.... i was so broken. i had no idea what to do. thankfully i had some friends who were there to help me... and now this video is going to help me ever more.
Thank you so much Blue October, AND JUSTIN for making the music that you make..and i know this sounds bad, but thank you for the things that you had to go through in life or else you would not have had the experience to write about the things that you do. So many of your fans like myself have been through a lot of the same things that you guys have been through, and walked down some of the same roads, so its amazing for us to have your music to relate to, and help us out through our lives! <3<3
im not saying its a badthing i really respect his music by the way and my first wish would b to b able to roll up a fatty with justin and just makemusic.
Cry me a river you fucking pussy, get shot a few times, have your girlfriend get raped, watch your best friend burn to death while trying to rebuild New Orleans, and then we will tak about being tough, fuck the shrinks, do it all on your own, maintain yourself, be tough, be yourself, live strong, do what i've done , get a job and get counseling, while being a musician, but you will never know who i am because i don't dwell on it
this isn't a competition to see who has had the worst things happen to them in their life. This makes him better, writing songs, wouldn't you do anything you could to make yourself feel better?
See, this is why i listen to this band everyday, you can cry and cry in an emo band cause your parents grounded you but you will never understand what this man had been through, when your parents call you crazy your all alone in this world and the only one who will help you is you. Justin is the only person i have ever be ever to relate to and he helped me through my recovery more then i will ever be able to tell him, if you read this Thank you for your help and songs.
my daughter was just arrested for stealing drugs from another girl's bag at work...she lost her first job right out of school, she was handcuffed and stripped searched (this is her second offense)...sending her lots of Justin's stuff as she goes through the rehab experience.I pray that she gets his struggle and that she knows she is not alone. thanks, Justin.
I lost my Best Friend Of 10 years Nine months ago after she really fucked me over we slept in the same bed for years lived together everything and i Still havent gotton over it sometimes im so angry sometimes i just cry may not be the exact same situation as his But i know how the hurt feels when your brain flips upside down :0(
Having been through most everything Justin writes about (including being released from an institution less than a month ago) I can say that this is one of the hardest things to go through. And especially being at work when the bomb drops def. makes a person snap. It's the kind of pain and mental torment that makes you drop to your knees and stop functioning to the point one of your coworkers has to drag you into the back room and call for help. Blue October is my constant soundtrack. They FEEL.
god i love him and i wish he hadnt had to go through all the shit he did...hes an amazing person and no one could do what he does with even an ounce of the perfect imperfection of justin furstenfeld. that interview almost made me cry to see him having to talk about it...
my god....Hearing his story just tore me apart. Like around 9:28 you can see his expression of trying not to cry or something. Poor justin. I know how he feels,kinda like my first love...except she left me for my cousin.
I have tears rolling down my face right now. That broke my fucking heart.
Justin has been through soo fucking much.
God. Like, that broke my fucking heart for him. The way he tells stories, be it in an interview like this or through the lyrics in his songs, you just fucking FEEL for him. You can't HELP but to feel for him. It's literally heart wrenching hearing him recount that part of his life. Like, having to give up his guitar like that... God, I love this band.
If you're going through something like he did, I wish you luck with it and that it gets better soon hopefully =/ It sucks to have to deal with crap like that.
Okay, I am back to say how much I love him again. :)
