I Needed to Share This
Added 2024-09-23 22:47:36 +0000 UTCHey guys!
This is a story I've wanted to share for awhile!
Thank you for allowing our normally scheduled shows and movies to be interrupted, briefly, to touch base with you guys and connect on a real and personal level!
Love you all so much! I also and so thankful for this community that we have built over the last 2 years! :)
You guys are the best,
Alex

I always say rejection is God’s protection. There is someone out there who will accept the love you have to offer but will also give it back to you. Sounds like she isn’t a nice person and you deserve better. It’s hard to see that way when you’re in the relationship, but try to change your perspective and you’ll see that beauty can come from brokenness. Your hurt and mess is not unseen or ignored. Every tear you shed is counted for. Don’t give up on life because there is more out there to enjoy and love. You’re not alone 🤍

2024-09-25 22:04:58 +0000 UTCThank you for sharing! I've not been in that situation but I used to struggle with depression and I started fostering, domesticating and finding homes for animals(mostly cats) a few years ago and your right it is such a gift to help. It gave my life purpose and a reason to get up everyday. Even at my lowest I still had to feed them, take care of medical needs and clean up after them. It kept me going and I'm so thankful to have watched so many go from scared strays to loving lap babies. It has been a Huge part of my healing. When you can't help yourself just help others!

2024-09-25 14:51:49 +0000 UTCAlex thank you for helping! I've been in that situation many times where I needed help, first when I had leukemia and now with my thyroid cancer. As a 36 year old palliative care patient I respect everybody who's willing to help🙏🏻

2024-09-25 02:24:53 +0000 UTCI love you and your energy! Life has been interesting for me… switching careers in my mid-30s, I’m actually going to school for Nursing! Plus I have kids and work full time so it’s been a lot, but the outcome will be so much more rewarding getting to help people!

2024-09-25 02:04:38 +0000 UTCBelieve me brother I’m 27 and my family is all over my ass about doing something other than technology for work. My mom is 68 so boomers through and through. I couldn’t graduate college because I have dyscalculia. The fact algebra is impossible yet I can do high level statistics is baffling and confusing to people. I have more raw potential in iq than Einstein but no degree to show for it. I’d say just keep getting back on the horse because sooner or later you will find a sunset worth riding off to.

2024-09-24 22:43:10 +0000 UTCThis kind of shit is important. Putting positivity like this out in the world by not only the action, but the video spreading the word of the action shows others that there are good people out there. We need to be here for each other and I’m glad you’re spreading that message Alex

2024-09-24 19:36:14 +0000 UTCBeing a caretaker for a loved one is such a devastating job. I remember doing the exact same thing for my grandma, helping her get dressed, cleaning her up, laying her down, putting her on her chair. It's rough and yet you know you would never choose not to do it. And I was happy I was there helping her and taking care of her till her final moments.

2024-09-24 18:08:06 +0000 UTCThank you, going back to my previous response it’s just a matter of being picky with what I want, having social anxiety that withholds me, then I make excuses to set myself back and I just feel like I’ve been in an endless loop and ik 24 is still young but couple that with the fact that ik family is disappointed that im not doing anything just makes a crap storm of not caring anymore and just feeling numb. Hope everything is going well for you though.

2024-09-24 12:20:17 +0000 UTCThank you, I don’t got much advice im a bit older but if you’ve got something in mind you desire like Alex said go for it, I feel worthless personally thats in part of not doing much after high school and choosing not to go to college but life just hits differently for everyone but adulthood just rips away childhood and tbh I don’t think anyone prepares you for it or at least prepared me for it. Be safe 🙏🏾

2024-09-24 12:17:58 +0000 UTCI will try to make this sence as much as possible, because english is my second language. It's been a few weeks since me and my girlfriend of 6 years broke up. She just left me for another dude. At that moment my life shattered. I felt really down and tried to make some connections but none of the girls i messeged with is her...Anyways i was getting better, stopped eating pills and drink alcohol but a few days ago she came across my work and when she noticed me, she smiled and grabbed her new boyfriends hand (which she never did in our relationship) and that broke me down again...I'm really thinking about ending it all yet again. I wanted to propose to her this year and make her my wife. I know that there are a lot of girls in the world etc. but honestly, she is all i ever wanted.

2024-09-24 11:30:35 +0000 UTCYou have NO IDEA how much these videos help me as a person with disability who's very shy and quite not ready to take the leap that you are talking about in this video. From now on im gonna try to be more open with people i care for, and try to take those "leaps" that you were talking about. Thank you Alex for what you are doing Youtube content aside. You are a real one!

2024-09-24 03:37:17 +0000 UTCYou matter. Don’t take your life for granted. I almost didn’t get the option breathe. My adoptive parents saved me from being aborted. Believe me I’ve been there but every breath even in adversity is worth more than gold. I wish you well for all your journeys and I’m here if you need to chat.

2024-09-24 03:30:37 +0000 UTCI want to go to the Netherlands so bad! Been dreaming of it by browsing Airbnb, haha. I really want to visit Utrecht. And I just learned of this lovely place called Houten.

2024-09-24 02:54:11 +0000 UTCive been there before and am honestly not in the best place now I just turned 18 and the realization childhood was over kinda crushed me even though its already been over for a while i just wanna say please be here theres always good in the future to look forward to no matter who you are.

2024-09-24 02:37:32 +0000 UTCWhat a great video, Alex. Thanks for sharing! And I second that. The things you dream of…just do them! That’s how I started traveling. I recently got back from Norway and Denmark - my 17th trip to a foreign country - many of them solo (I’m in the US). Every trip, every country, even living abroad twice (where it started) has been so worth it. If you’ve ever said “one day,” regardless of what that dream is, make that day *today*!

2024-09-24 01:19:22 +0000 UTCI’m living that right now. My Dads 91 with dementia, and he fell on the road. Broke his nose, skull and a few fingers. He is hanging in there but no doubt it’s very hard on the family. Go stop in that ladies home tomorrow with some flowers. Thanks for these videos!

2024-09-23 23:51:50 +0000 UTCAppreciate you sharing your experience man and I hope you're able to find a breakthrough with your therapist! I went through a similar experience a couple years ago myself and I too fantasized about taking my own life throughout the day. It was challenging and difficult struggle but you're already on the right track by seeking help and advice. Keep the faith and I promise you'll see results. Enjoy your day man!

2024-09-23 23:15:18 +0000 UTCI agree Alex, I took a leap and bought a plane ticket to Canada (I live in the Netherlands). I'm flying alone for the first time. But I'm sure I'm going to enjoy every second there.

2024-09-23 23:12:02 +0000 UTCend of life care is easily one of the most challenging jobs there are, my heart goes out to everyone officially or unofficially working in that field 🫶🏻

2024-09-23 23:07:26 +0000 UTCGreat story and message! I have issues within myself and often contemplate suicide and have a suicide attempt in the past and a million close calls. I'm addicted to negativity, I obsess about the darkness and fantasize about taking my own life obsessively throughout each day. My mind is a flip book of suicidal memories and fantasies. I am seeing a therapist and I start dbt therapy tomorrow. Trying to figure out how to control these thoughts. That mans positive attitude while going through his experience is super inspiring and motivating. I really appreciate you sharing this story it helped get me out of my head for a bit today

2024-09-23 23:06:01 +0000 UTCWow, this sounds all too familiar. My dad worked hard for 35 years and not even a year after he retired, he got diagnosed with dementia and within two years of retiring, he died. As a 14-year-old kid, I thought I would get to spend so much more time with him and I am sure he thought the same. I think we as humans forget that nothing is promised, especially time.

2024-09-23 23:03:44 +0000 UTCGonna be honest, I thought the lady was scamming you and trying to lure you guys into her home for whatever reason. I guess I’ve seen too many movies too lmao but really sacrificing Punisher for this vid was a W. We share the same perspective on life. Wholesome vibes.

2024-09-23 23:02:00 +0000 UTCMan I understand that story on a different level. My grandpa is suffering with Glioblastoma and I moved back in with my grandparents to help him physically. He’s fallen multiple times due to right side weakness.
