It is more common then we think, and I totally think the more you talk about it the better you feel and also the people around you feel, we need to get the old way of thinking if you cry suck it up.. so wrong and I also suffer from mental illness. 🙏🏻 so proud of you.. take care.
What a story. Well done sir.
Wow, such an awesome story, very emotional, i will watch this again…..hopefully you are still doing well…
wow, powerful stuff 🙁
How can we bring this to rural America? There are alot of us in the southeast U.S. as I'm sure throughout all of the U.S. but I for one would love to help out fellow Southeastern Men and Women that suffer with Depression/Anxiety. I know my story and how it "became" for me, and as a strong "dad" or Man it is hard to admit or share
2 years!? really!? the last comments before mine were 2 fucking years ago!? this video is such a powerful one.
I loved watching this.. It's not just a bare stories, But It's real happening to me also.. The world Is shut when you Ride A Motorcycle.. 🏍️😔

Your not alone mate,your not alone ….look out the window ,take a deep breath and realise that what ever the world chucks at you there are people to talk too,DONT wait for help ASK for it . Good luck with the future ,take care mate ,take care 👍👍👍👍
It's a daily struggle,hiding the pain from the world & people,but I've learned that being around loving people & going to church instead of avoiding people is what i need,even as a Christian i still struggle alot,life is hard when everything is always moving at a fast pace,just need to be still & calm down enough to see through the storms of life,life is so precious,live it to the fullest as much as possible,and enjoy the people you meet along the journey ❤ u in Jesus Christian ✝️ Biker
