if you're feeling depressed this morning, ill get ready with you!

There's no pressure to feel better this morning. What if we just get through it together and take it one moment at a time. I'll walk with you and keep you company. I know the weight of depression can feel like it's too much to take. Just one breath a time knowing that this is you being so incredibly strong.

Listen on my Being Human Podcast:

Scott, I've been watching you for years, and I've always thought you were a special person. You're a real homie for those of us who feel alone most of the time, those of us who are avoiding the day. Usually it's the subscribers who support the YouTuber, but for you it's always been the YouTuber supporting us, and I respect that. Thanks for always being there for us. I'll remember you for the rest of my life, bro.

Dear Scott, I don't know if you will ever see this comment, but I'll say it anyway. I lost my husband on 24 April. Eleven months before him I lost my mom, and my dad went a month after her. I am still reeling, but I am 'getting on with my life'. This morning I couldn't. It is winter here in South Africa, and that makes it harder to get out of bed. I don't know what lead me to your video, but I did it. I got up, made my bed, and showered. It is lunch time now, and after lunch I am going to find a sunny spot to dry my hair naturally. I don't know what will come next. Thank you for you kind words and gentle encouragement.

I woke up today, afraid of how dark my emotions was. Then, miraculously, this videos showed up. I ended up taking that shower, clean my face, put on clothes, make up and found myself outside, walking in the sun. It felt so good to walk and have your comfort on my ear, so I continued listening to your other videos. I felt so understood and cared for, which was exactly what I needed today. No quick fix or advice, just comfort. Thank you. You are a godsend, Scott.

I’m about to take a shower for the first time in four days. I started a load of clothes and made some coffee. This past year I’ve detoxed off some medication used for drug abuse and it completely destroyed my brain… it’s actually healing my brain… but you don’t have dopamine left. Your body has to learn to make it again by itself. This past year has been so hard for me. Seriously I’ve just been so depressed or absolutely manic for days. It’s up and down rn. It’s hard. But fr thank you. This video is getting saved and will be played again. I’m only half way through but thank you seriously.

Your ability to make us feel as if youre in our room is truly beautiful and so helpful. I hope you’re in a good place right now and if not, then thats okay too 🙂 Thanks for teaching me that 💙

Thank you Scott ❤ You help give myself some grace

What a great idea to make a video like this that helps us depressed people get through our morning! It might sound weird but it is so hard for me to take a shower or do other simple tasks that I really wish someone could hold my hand through it all. Thank you for taking the time to hold so many people’s hands in helping us do what is excruciatingly hard to do. Bless you!

Oh Angel.
I don't think I have ever experienced such love and softness from another person... But ironically - this is the way I show love to myself, (and to others, even to strangers! (I do not have anyone and I am struggling with a lot - including not having a support system outside of me).
And even though the loving and gentle self-talk seems not being enough, just like today - I am so incredibly grateful to finding You and Your helpful, kind online activity through these videos - especially this one, when I have spent two hours on trying to call the helpline but it was constantly busy, or to find a fitting YouTube video - but only this one is truly conforting and helping me in the way that I needed to be supported.
Thank You, in those emotionally unstable and though times, and days, that God is makeing me to still be alone but also giving me wisdom and softness to feed my own needy of it Self to grow.

Thank You Scott.
You helped me to get back to myself.
And I will definitely stay on this quiet, comforting and safe- loving side of YouTube.
What a good place to finally find❤

It's nice to see someone who is motivational and someone who actually cares about helping others. Way to go Scott

People think you can over come the depression they get mad at you. Thanks for under standing

[callumgeier]

Your a big light for some brother..don't ever stop what your doing..keep sharing your light..

[madina]

You are a wonderful person and deserve to wake up as happy and supported as you make others feel. Thank you Scott 😊

[Zuzzamma]

Even though I have very deep, repeated male trauma and overall big trust issues and troubles finding a compatibile human company ( that's why I am lonely and I'm tired of superficial and not right people) but... You! Seem like such a precious human being.
There is this often used phrase "people are your mirrors" - but no one but YOU are truly mirroring the kind of person I am.
I hope that soon my close reality will bloom with these soft kind of people so I can heal, being there and not feel the need to pretend and keep my gourd (?) up.
Btw You just reminded me how much I love the fantasy movies like Lord Of The Rings or The Chronicles of Narnia.
The truly bring me so much comfort.
Sending gratitude 🌼

This is very kind of you to do this, for those of us who are experiencing depression and or anxiety 😢I watched one of your others posts about depression and I don’t think I have experienced anything like it as it was so heart felt ❤and helpful 😊

[CherylMagnuson-qd]

Last night i thought i won't be able to get out of my bed today, and i just randomly played this 27 minutes recording and bom. I'm sure i haven't felt so good and proud in a year:) thank you so much for this scott❤️ wish you the best bro

[rubyslippers]

For years I had thought about how great this would be for those of us who can barely get out of bed. I have a mental health/addiction peer support page and I just could not figure out how this would be accomplished. Awesome.
