Joe Rogan on Suicide and Anthony Bourdain

It's stories like this that stop me doing it. Knowing how it'll effect my mum. I know it's tough to share but thanks

Sumo Taylor thats like the only nice comment I've ever seen on youtube. good to see stuff like this

There is no magical conversation that could have helped your son, certainly don't blame yourself. Teenagers very much act emotionally, against better judgement for which only time and maturity will give them a better perspective. I do wish psychology was more popular in my teenage years (the 90's) and people like Professor Jordan Peterson were around trying to help people for the sake of it. Focus on your boy and your young man now, and look after yourself.

kreteman777 sounds like you are doing what you need to do. So sorry for your loss

kreteman777 Im so sorry. Nobody should ever have to go through that.

I feel ya....every day! 😉

Probably cuz u can't shit

Same.

You just described my situation perfectly. I'm in a dark place right now, hope your doing better then when you posted! My favorate time is when I sleep! It's sad in the am for me! Wasn't always like this! I hope I can snap out of this!

I feel you bro i been like this for awhile too and my bestfriend just passed away the one person that made me truly happy and i thought it was harder before now its just miserable

God bless you...

He was an angel who returned to heaven... Stay strong until then.🌹

I’m so sorry. My son has mental illness and has been suicidal many times. I try to save him from doing it. It’s an overwhelming feeling. Blessings to you. 💕

I’m sorry for your loss

@@lab4389 blessings to you as well. I hope your son recovers and finds hope

Stfu no1 actually gives a fuck the world care only for themselves it selfish to even put your problems on som1 else get a set a get the fuck on with it

im glad you’re still here, i hope things are turning around for you ❤

I’m so glad you fought through it. You should be proud of yourself. Those dark thought’s can be relentless. I really like when they get real like this too, I often feel weak or like a failure because of my dark periods but hearing others talk so openly about fighting the same fight is comforting. It makes me feel less alone. I don’t mean to sound selfish, I wouldn’t wish depression on my worst enemy.

We are all humans. And as humans we have these emotions and feelings. Some of which can be very overwhelming and confusing and frustrating. Just talking about them takes so much energy and can be completely exhausting... Thank you to those who are out here trying to make a difference. Mental illness is real and extremely hard to think it's just a mind over matter situation. Thank you Joe Rogan for speaking on these issues! 👍🏻👍🏻

Feelings mutual. It's been so difficult, but I'm trying my best. All the best. You're not alone. No one is. No matter how much it feels like we are. I know we all feel that way.

They can lock up your body, They can not lock up your mind. Just because you sit in a cell doesn't mean you have to be there. I project my body to places seen in my mind :)

One of the famous quotes by Albert Schweitzer.. you should look into him and his philosophies on life. 🤙🏾🤙🏾

I relate to that, I've had to deal with lots of deaths and broken relationships or friendships and a piece of my heart goes with most. Sometimes a little hole gets filled in by something else, but it's a balance thing. God Bless❤

Isn't that the truth! Thanx for sharing that @jerrydeloza9915

But not women tho, fk them

He also asked and was curious throughout, even if he still was somewhat uncomfortable.

Radzo1 I agree. We all need to know or feel someone can hear us or that we matter.

YES!! That really stood out for me, too! Big kuddos to Joe for that. He acknowledged that he didn't understand it but he didn't invalidate his friend for feeling that way. He didn't say, "Just snap out of it!" He showed that he genuinely cared about his friend's well-being. That's what one needs when going through depression-someone who says, "I don't get it-but I'm going to help you." That's awesome, Joe!

That is true many time. Every case is different. There is no single approach or solution that is good or bad for everyone.

I love this comment, thank you.

I'm sorry for your loss.

That is so tough! Keep talking about it. Cry when you need to. Sending you so much love from New Zealand ❤

I’m so sorry for your loss! I promise you that your mom’s decision had nothing to do with you. I promise you that there is nothing you could have done. I promise you that it’s not your fault, you’re not to blame, & you deserve all the love in the world. And no matter what your last interaction was with her, that does not have to define you. Maybe you could think about writing to her. One time or a thousand times, if it helps. Talk about her, write about her, find yourself, find your own way through your heartache, your anger, your pain. Allow yourself to Feel every emotion thoroughly, every time, for the rest of your life because the only wounds that don’t heal are the ones we don’t take care of. And when they heal, there is still a scar, that’s normal. There is no such thing as “getting over” the loss of a loved one especially the early traumatic ones. Everything we love deeply becomes a part of us that cannot be lost. I’m sending my love to you because love is what you need most now, more than ever. ❤

Not your fault.❤

Thank you for being here you being here and dealing with the thoughts you have ab her it is what keeps her memory alive you being here is what keeps a little piece of her still here

No truer words. I would rather be by myself than with others who make me feel invisible and unworthy.

Exercise absolutely helps, that along with a healthy diet and consistant positive social interactions with loved ones and people you trust

Working out and talking to a friend that has been there and is now out of depression helps. Ive dealt with depression all my life and ive contemplated suicide many times. A few months ago i was in that black hole and i paid a friend a visit, he was going through depression and anxiety as well. Talking to him and knowing i wasnt alone in the way i felt helped. He turned me on to st. Johns wort pills that night and so at that point i thought what do i have to lose? I took 2 st johns wort pills a day along with 1omega 3 a day and ive been feeling better since, im still taking them and i cant say that is what got me out of depression completely or its a placebo effect, but oddly enough i do feel alot better. Another thing that helps alot is listening to music and watching old feel good movies or shows that made me feel good as a kid. I hope this helps someone outhere battling with depression.

Balance your life, working out helps a lot. David Goggins is a huge inspiration too

I think you meant devastation

There are bad days of depression but he is right, sometimes you just need to get up. I’ve had depression and thank God I’ve overcome it and never needed pills. Lost my mom, dad, became an alcoholic, college dropout, dui and the list continues and I thought I’d never get out of that hole. But diet, exercise, and God got me though it after 6 years of misery. Everyday is still a battle but joe is right, sometimes you just gotta get up

@@lesterm18 glad to hear you were able to turn it around bro!

Yeah, it's the thing. We know what needs to be done to feel better, yet you just can't do it. It's like being in a mental fog or extreme ocd where you're on a loop you can't get off, you think of different things to try to get yourself out of it mentally but end up back on the same loop within seconds. Clinical depression is the shits. Wish I could afford medication to get my cast but just powering through it the only way I can.

I used to be depressed, it’s really just not wanting to get out of bed and not wanting to do anything, it’s also wild because you don’t care as much about your life so your wreck less. I was fighting a lot and doing drugs, which didn’t help

Facts man, even when I manage to get out and run 3-5KM a day it doesn’t magically just cure it 😞

Ari did the greatest possible explanation of all of the tangled components on the mystery of depression, suicidal thoughts and behaviors. I am a “young” 67 year old woman having over 11 counselors and psychiatrist, one psychiatrist was for 16 years. I have tried over 20 combinations of meds. The last 3 years I gradually changed so many things in my life, including quitting alcohol. Still smoking pot but usually just later in the evening. As Ari said, it was part of my internal identity. Everyone identified me as the life of the party. Pressure I put on myself. I would only leave the house if I knew I could be “on”. I have since tried to sit back and relax and enjoy the moment in all aspects of my life experiences. I am great-full for all of the ups and downs of my mental health, as they have taught me compassion and made me a good listener.

Yes. I use to cry just get my legs of the damn bed. Would never dare let others see this way. But i swear it was like physically feeling like i was peeling my skin off the bed.

Going through this right now. It’s like weeks long with a few days sprinkled in of actual motivation.

Exercise helps but it mostly helps with the anxiety

Just force yourself to do it. It is easy and possible

NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE, GET UP AND GET GOING! SUMMON THE INNER BEAST IN YOU!

@Dick Thick'em Hi bud, it might not be accurate in relation to your subjective experience of depression, and there are obviously objective commonalities between people's experience of it, but it is different in nature for each person so is true to his own expressed hardship.

Everyone’s different

@Daryl Halliday I agree with Daryl. To me its the feeling of hopelessness. What is the fucking point of it all. in 100 years from now, no one will remember you. in 200 years from now no one will even have a thought, a fucking thought for a second about you. If your famous, in 500 years no one will remember you. and and and, in probably 100,000 years humanity will be gone. Whats the fucking point of existence? Having fun? yep good point, but what if you're disabled, depressed, can't walk, can't talk, 3 people are working for you around the clock so you can survive. I'm no Stephen Hawking dear. if its ok for this person to have a reason to commit suicide then every one can, or should.

For me-it felt like I was walking through mud. I felt like I was waist-deep in mud and every step, every *thing* just took so. much. effort.

@@bbearsmama exactly! And years of it and you are just done with it! I know the feeling.

@@bluceree7312 It doesn't matter and there is no point. And that's the beauty of it. No reason to rush our death, it is coming quickly anyway.

He sai unconditionally..not accondiscending..

Chronic depression can take you to an early grave ..get help if it just goes on !

This is very true. I just found that someone who was a very close friend of mine from last year commit suicide today and he was always the type of person who couldn’t hurt a fly and was kind to everyone even complete strangers. He also seemed like a very happy person and brought up people around him. But what was on the inside must have told a completely different story.

Yes, westcoastsands. Sometimes depression may cause a little bit of carelessness, which can lead to accidents, too. So, death is not always intentional, for a depressed person. That's why you want to be careful, love yourself and be kind to yourself and others. 💕

…and be kind to yourself.💕

It always passes

Give that dog a treat from me and tell him he's a good boy!

i have been dealing with it by myself since i was 10 and these days, I live abroad my wife gets depressed so I cant talk to her about it as she will say "ah i did this by bringing you here" i really cant talk to anyone about it. think it's like a cloud, sometimes you struggle, and sometimes its a more clear sky, that being said like he said your brain is lying to you, so I might think its clear and I might be miserable compared to a normal guy, no idea once you have it long term its really hard to find a baseline as to what normal is

I've had brutal depression... I got a dog 6 months ago .she drives me insane but I feel like I have a purpose to take care of something...❤ Give your pup a kiss!

Coming to see that beyond the depression, life still isn't great for a plethora of other reasons, alot of which are universal and considered normal can make longing for your depressive days a conceivable idea to me. But yeah.. interesting.

Personally, it feels weird and wrong when it’s not there, so it’s kind of alarming because I know it’s not normal and perhaps I’m vulnerable for it to hit me again harder.

Yup exactamundo...

I think another new way this has manifested in society in recent history is the constant passing of time through media (KZhead, Films, Songs etc.) Personally, for the last year and a half, have lay on my bed all day and wasted countless hours watching youtube. No memories, happy or sad have been experienced, just nothing. I think what you say is true and have always felt like im only watching these youtubers and other peoples lifes because i dont want to think about my own. It is very much like a state of unconciousness as you never actually have an emotional experience; you're literally just watching other people do things; passing the time and waiting for something to happen, but you have no clue what the fuck that thing is.

Gx Qx exactly, and shit can get even worst if you go down the rabithole of conspiracy theories (pedophilia rings, 911, etc..)

WhatAHero sleep does not help me. I wake up feeling like shit every day

Joe Curran i dont think he means sleeps helps with the depression directly. All it does it indirectly allows you to not have to think any negative thoughts, well, because you're obviously unconciouss and its impossible. Sleep is that temporary relief you can get, even though it is not really a relief because you're literally just shutting off. Real relief would be feeling good, smiling, laughing or just forgetting about your depression for a moment. But in the twisted mind of a depressed person, sleep enables you not to even have to think about anything. You're right though, when you wake up it starts all over again and thats why your mind wants your body to stay in bed all day and chase that 'unconciousness' through sleep as much as it can. For the relief from negative thoughts. Hope that makes sense. If i'm not making sense it is because i've been up for around 48 hours and cant sleep 😨 now thats a fucking catch 22 like crazy lol. welcome to the mind of depressed person where nothing makes sense 😂

If they're dismissive yes... sometimes they're just trying to let you know they empathise

@@beardykins3073 True, but it also depends if they then spend the whole time talking about their own depression or how they snapped out of it without allowing you a chance to share what is happening to you.

@@letsdomath1750 also true

I hear you for sure, but not everyone is good at knowing the right things to say. They could be just trying to show you they relate to what you’re saying.

"Don't give up the fight to stay alive even if you have to find the reason of another's pain if they lose you. If not for yourself, then those around who care like I do. One day you'll see the clear blue, beyond the grey sky." -311, "Beyond the Grey Sky"

Take strength in that. From a young age I always saw suicide as "a bad trade", in the sense that MY problems and pain being taken away isn't worth my family and friends hurting if they lost me. I had thought that way long before I had depression, so now anytime I have suicidal thoughts, it is always a lingering thought in the back of my head that holds me back from acting on those thoughts and I am so thankful for that. I feel that having that mind set for so long, and having developed that mental barrier has saved my life time and time again. Let that feeling of love for your mom take over in the moment, sometimes its enough to distract you until someone else gets home, or until the feeling passes. Self awareness isn't easy to master, especially so for people suffering from depression, but it is such a helpful tool in recovery. So when you have that little reminder of your mom, lean into it, that is your connection with reality at that point and having a connection to reality when considering suicide is so important. Whether you know it or not, youre a fighter. I wish you all the best on your journey, and hope you have access to a good support system.

You have my condolences ❤️

Oh honey. You are on my prayer list.

Depression shrinks the hippocampus which is responsible for memory. I had the same issue at one point, it was effecting me and I didn’t want that. Exercise. I view it as a gift because it pretty much is. It’s extremely beneficial and Im grateful that I’m capable of doing it when there are people with debilitating conditions (cerebral palsy, people with missing limbs, blind people, etc) that have trouble with it and wish they could be in a better condition, so I do it for those people as well. Aerobic exercise increases BDNF, which creates new brain cells which would improve memory. HIIT in particular produces higher levels of BDNF as well as mood boosting endorphins. And facing adversity through intense exercise dramatically improves your self-worth, identity and creates resiliency. It makes you realize you really are stronger than you think you are. It sparks a drive for improvement and purpose. Also, Lions mane is a supplement that increases BDNF. I would research other ways to increase your serotonin levels as well. Your gut is considered your 2nd brain. Gut bacteria regulates your mood, so probiotics are definitely something you should consume. Sun exposure, having perspective and practicing mindfulness/gratitude are more things to consider. Out of 7 + billion theres an exorbitant amount that suffer more than me and Im mindful of that everyday. Plus, im fortunate to have been born in this time period and in a 1st world country. We have access to so much valuable information right at our fingertips, better technology, etc. I’m thankful as fuck for KZhead and Spotify as well. I couldn’t imagine living in any time period from the past. All of these things benefited me. life can be very fucked up but i hope this could provide some insight and value to atleast a few people.

I have also experienced the same crushing assessment from one of my past therapists. The exasperation of someone who is trying (and whose job it is) to help you is soul crushing. It makes it seem as if you are a hopeless case and that you don’t deserve any help. Even well meaning friends who say, “just get out of bed abs exercise” and get mad at you for “not even trying” is what directly preceded a second attempt.

@@leo5543 but as a divine eternal soul, ending your life here in this physical world means you still continue on, albeit in another form because energy can never be dissipated. It only changes form. We all come here into the physical realm to learn various soul lessons as well as to experience things in physical form with our 5 (or 6) senses. Perhaps the lesson is to love yourself first, to forgive yourself most graciously and to be your own advocate instead of relying upon external things or people to bring you satisfaction and joy. We must do that for ourselves. Also, try to stay present in that when we keep replaying the past over and over again or we project uncertainty and doubt into the future it causes us to lose the appreciation in the present moment as well as the many miraculous ways things that are occurring at that present moment in time. When replaying the past or projecting various scenarios into the future stop yourself and become/focus on where you are at that moment (ie in the car or in the living room) then look around and note 3 things that you see and remind yourself that at that moment you are safe. Do that as often as you need to to retrain your thoughts from replaying or foreshadowing things. Also, start to become aware of things that you’re grateful for, even things you take for granted. Once we begin to feel genuine gratitude for things in our life we begin to have more things to be grateful for. The universe works like an echo, whatever energy you put out it mirrors back to you more of the same. I genuinely hope this makes sense to you and that it helps in someway but sending much love and hugs your way too.❤️🤗

I get it but I am always really nice like that kind of thing doesn’t bother me, when people are mean or disrespect me I feel so angry and sensitive and hate everyone and even sometimes want them to die or for me to die

Rory Smith hope you feel better

@Robert Bowles Are you aware your comment is evidence of attempted murder?

@Robert Bowles I hope you can strive to pursue titles more befitting of you
