   Psilocybin containing mushroom saved my life. it drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quite illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had became medically dangerous to quit. it has also helped me to survive depression

   Society does put women on a pedestal and treats them more supremely. Women are talked to more and not ignored like men are.

   I hate toxic masculinity. I am gay and proud of being not toxic and not obsessed with bring masculine. I tell people when im depressed and sad and i cry in front of others. Many gay men pretend to be straight to avoid being ridiculed .

   Part of manning up is being brave enough to talk about these issues. Great job lads, you're helping others! 😊

   I struggle with waves of depression and hearing them share similar feelings is shocking. I know im not alone but have always felt lonely and neglected. I’ve cried alone and felt like a bitch because of society’s portrayal of masculinity is to be tough and resilient. I am human and broken. Much love to you all going through shit man dont give because I still haven’t.

    you really do have to change your mindset. life is objectively shit. it's just shit. poverty, disease, war, labour, death, grief, abuse, distractions, ignorance, cyclicality, futility, meaninglessness. it's a constant battle against impermanence that we're born to lose. the only way it can seem positive is if you convince your mind to see it that way. how? fuck knows.

    I appreciate this content but my only issue with set up of men..These men are considered “successful” so it’s ok for them to speak up about their depression etc..for the “average joe” when you speak about depression you’re seen as lazy or making excuses etc…this is my only issue with this kind of panel setup…90 plus percent of men are average joes

    Depression is like a hostage situation, it invades your mind and takes you as a hostage until you develop Stockoholm syndrome. Home becomes a prison, you become a prisoner. You can see there's a door to physically escape out of, but your mind convinces you there is no door and there is no escape. Soon you don't even want to, you're in a way relieved the door isn't there.

    Same goes for your phone, you become terrified of your phone. Everytime the phone rings, beeps or alerts this unimaginable anxiety creeps in, so you adapt and put in on mute. Every time you check your phone you're nervous, you just wish there's no calls or messages from your family and friends, and what a relief when there's not. But when there is, the guilt creeps in and makes you even more miserable. You beat yourself down for being such a selfish asshole. You don't want to worry your loved ones so you can't tell how brutally lonely and depressed you are, and on the otherhand you're just dead tired of pretending you're all right, so either way you're fucked.

    This mindset invades every aspect of your so called life; either way you're fucked, nothing matters. You don't matter. It would be better for everyone if you could just cease existing. You don't want to die per se, but you don't want to live either. So either way you're fucked.

    This is my depression at it's ugliest; either way I'm fucked. It gets to a point where I see no options except for opting for nothing. It's a sad, lonely and dark option but I'm trying my best to rehabilitate myself. It's a long and rocky road, but I know I'm not alone.

    PS. Please share your thoughts and emotions, even just typing it out on YT comment section like this will 100% make you feel less like shit for a moment when compared to just keeping it all inside your dome.

    Peace & Love my Brothers! ✌️

    For those that dont already know and what to better understand the word 'depression' let me explain… the clue to understanding is in the word itself!

    depression..

    DE' reverse of DO like a pressed button in state of harmony where all flows smoothly and consistantly only where DE' means to release said pressed button blocking it's flow

    PRESS' reverse of DE' where press is to have consistant flow/calm where DE' means to prevent that state of flow/calm
    ION' is (lifes mission) where we ALL choose our own path in like and make it our mission to succeed in consistantly and peacefully having that calm flow be it as parents/jobs/finances/socializing/ etc etc the point is depressionis like a break in our flow like a stream of water that becomes blocked by a few rocks, remove those rocks/the brake and the stream (our mission will flow smoothly once again! depression is only an obsticle within out way of life and ALL OBSTICLES CAN BE OVERCOME no matter how big or small 🙂

    not sure why you call this MAN-UP given their prob more of a man than the average joe we're just depressed not oppressed you morons! depression is a life state where no amount of medication can help anti depressants only serve as a cut road to make the person THINK he is ok WHEN IN FACT HE IS NOT! so anyone that takes anti-depressants and says they work are simply full of shit!
    and aren't truly depressed!

    depression is part of the male gene it is in our blood we have learned to keep it in check but, something happens that overwhelms us and allows that emotional feeling to overwhelm us again hence the weakness and suicidal thoughs etc it could be a father where the mother will not let him see his child or a divorce or anything.. from struggling to find a job and never knowing what it is you want to achieve in their lives from college to university from employments to general successes it can be a mixture of all of these things or just one particular thing or a cocktail of 2 but in most cases for nearly ALL men it is ONE instance that has the most profound impact upon us that overcomes our ability to maintain the depression. think of depression like an emotion some we are able to control and some we are not those become spontaneous 'depression' is a containable-spontaneous emotion we learn to control it but, then it suddenly overwhelms us. there is no medication for depression and there is no getting rid of it. the only way we as men can better understand it and control it and better learn to put it to bed is to talk about it there is no better cure for such an ailment as to be with ya friends and get shit off your chest by talking about what it is whether it be, a mother being a bitch with the kids (biggest reason) or the struggle to find work etc whatever it is TALK ABOUT IT because the more you bottle it up the further down you will fall.. respect to all the men/women that have or currently are going through a bout of depression. 🙂

    2021 was the hardest, darkest time of my life. I was physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually BROKEN. But now I feel genuinely GRATEFUL and BLESSED that I had to go through that phase because GOD has graciously REVEALED Himself to me in miraculous ways. I am fortunate that He allowed me to know Him at a very young age, but this year is SPECIAL because of what WE (yes, GOD and me) have been through last year. He showed me how POWERFUL prayers truly are when I started to focus on WHO HE IS rather than who I am, on WHAT HE CAN DO rather than what I deserve. The experience was MAGICAL. He showed up BIG TIME and assured me that HE is indeed a LISTENING and RESPONDING GOD. Oh how my faith has skyrocketed as a result! Now more than ever, I have very bright HOPE for my future because I personally experienced how RELIABLE God is. And for that I will forever be grateful. GLORY BE TO GOD, MY EVER FAITHFUL FATHER. ♥️♥️♥️

    To everyone who's struggling right now, please know that GOD LOVES YOU. He wants to help you and give you peace. Please surrender your burdens to Him and allow Him to move in your life.

    "Because he loves Me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges My Name. He will call on Me, and I will answer him;  I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him." (Psalm 91:14-15)

    Please hold on to this bible verse because WHATEVER GOD SAYS, HE FULFILLS. 🙏

    Trust me, and this is coming from experience, people generally speaking (unless they've been through it – but even then sometimes) do not care about mental health. Especially, when it comes to men's mental health. I think a lot of people like to look like they care (virtue signalling), but when it comes down to real life lows and being in a bad place, people don't care. This is coming from someone that has been at a very low point. EXTREMELY few people actually cared.

    I don't ask for help because I don't trust that the people around me will react appropriately, with the appropriate seriousness. Like either they will shrug it off and say get over it, or wildly over-react and get me put in a straight jacket.

    I just don't really value my life very much. And all this grinding feels so pointless, I do it as an act. My whole life of enthusiasm, curiosity and human interaction is an act, I am pretending to care about my life because the alternative is shooting myself.

    the legs still hurts so the pain reminds me everyday the things i have done. the guilt or anything doesnt help to stop it there. something still persist in mind.
    well if we know what causing it and according to world ( the WORLD) we doesnt work on it and its our fault. I did think about it more than one time.
    i dont know the ( living up to the expectation will ever satisfy people).

    MAN UP by allan mccutcheon

    You tell me to "MAN UP"
    Maybe you should shut up.
    As it's taking me everything.
    To wake up and stand up.
    I don't mean to be hard up.
    Or let alone seemed stuck up.
    But by not seeing the bigger picture,
    You're just fucked up.
    They say
    "Man Up" don't show emotion.
    Because I'm causing a commotion
    Maybe there's a magic position.
    Like abracadabra I'm cured.
    But I'm not.
    I'm still the same
    Trying to remain sane
    Whist trying to keep feelings contained.
    Just so I can "Man up"
    But by manning up.
    A lot of men are being strung up.
    So instead of putting us down.
    Be a man and help us up when we can't help ourselves.
