this totally shocked me when I heard she went through all this not too long ago...I know how she feels i've been there too, but I thought she was the last person that would have to know how that feels.

  • "One doctor said it might be menopose...I slapped him" LOLOLOL Hoover....which video is this one?

  • its a chonda pierce video "stayin alive...laughing"

  • I too have been "committed" and it is quite a trip. Holy Smokes. And they do literally take everything away from you.

  • i've been "committed" too and your right they do take everything. I thought it was stupid the wouldn't let me have my picture frames, and they wouldn't let me have my makeup or shower products I had to go to the front and ask for my stuff everyday cause they locked it up. i guess so i wouldn't try to poison myself with my shampoo?

  • I really appreciate Chonda's honesty on depression and also about how the church does not know how to respond to those who are hunrting and wounded.

  • Chonda, remember my wife at mothers day out group session. Everyone was GREAT no problems, etc, My wife suddenly broke down and released. Then the group went around again and the TRUTH starting coming out. I too have been commited and actually it was a great experience as obviously you are there because of something wrong. Wish church was this way! Where came I get a copy of the video? kellylj79@hotmail.com

  • Most comedians suffer from depression

  • That last sentence should say "on a daily basis"!!

  • Thanks for speaking on the subject of depression. I hope people become less judgmental of those of us who deal with this on a dai

  • I was committed but once I got in there I realized I wasn't crazy and I got out and went straight to church to feel HIS presence...It was so soothing and healing in Jesus name!!

  • With grace & humor, Chonda illuminates a taboo subject & makes it real; this is a message that churches especially needs to hear, I think. I am agnostic, but have a deeply Christian friend who tried to take his own life because when he turned to his pastors, they failed to realize how ill he was, telling him he just wasn't praying sincerely enough; he became convinced he was unworthy, & almost lost both his faith & his life. Luckily, his neighbors were home that day, & he is recovering.

  • Lord bless you Chonda, i completely understand

  • Thanks for this video. 4 years ago I woke up one morning to a feeling that is unexplainable. I felt like I was sitting on the edge of hell. I hated everything and I wanted to die. I ended up hospitalized also. I accepted Jesus when I was a child and I've always loved him deeply but I took some flack from other Christians because unless you experience clinical depression you can't know that it is not a spiritual matter. It is a physical matter like any other.

  • HEY! Is the sound broken on this?? Please check and fix !

  • haha I've been committed and I met some interesting people. My best friend in there was a heroin addict. She was a sweet girl lol. The sex/coke addict though was quite scary.
