What's Been on my Mind (MHC)
Added 2024-03-27 19:41:58 +0000 UTCHey guys!
Once a month or so I do these Mental Health Checks (MHC) and say what's been on my mind/heart. If you guys have been dealing with anything, drop a comment down below. If you can offer advice or anything to someone else in the comments, feel free.
Love you all so much. Life is fucking tough. Let's normalize talking about things. I've bottled shit up my entire life.
Much love,
Alex

Generally my mental health last month could've been better. I've been in a slump lately, it's disappointing for sure but that's just how it goes, ya know? I'm happy as I am in the end though. :) Keeping positive when at all possible and limiting everything else.

2024-04-05 04:44:05 +0000 UTCThank you very much for these MHC video check-ins. I am one of those people who really appreciated as I have bipolar depression and things are not going well for me at all at all nope not at all. Maybe I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel although I have no idea what it's going to look like out there and nobody had better say that it's going to be better or it's going to be okay because I will b**** slap you to last century. You don't know that all you know is it will be different. This is why I don't like it when people who don't know how to speak to somebody who's in the position I'm in goes ahead and talks to somebody like me when I'm in this position. I've seen that go wrong so very wrong many times. I don't know if you've ever seen platoon but the last shot Charlie Sheen is in the helicopter and he's looking down at the ground while the North Vietnamese soldiers are gunning down Elias. He was set up by Barringer because the two were at the top guys in the platoon but had very different perspectives on how things should be done and it's set up a big rift within the platoon. Charlie Sheen is looking down and he's saying that he feels that he is the child born of those two fathers and they were battling for possession of his soul. That's how I feel about my substance abuse and my bipolar depression. I am the child born of those two fathers and they are fighting for possession of my soul because I don't know where I am in the mix. I Used to Know until I bottomed with my addiction but not anymore. I'm just going to stop now because I'm talking in circles and I can't concentrate. I don't even know if I said anything that made sense but I feel a little bit better and that's is the purpose of all of this. I think you kindly for that Alex. I was re-watching some of the music reactions that you had done and I saw when I first subscribe to your channel back in 2020. I don't remember what video it was but your comment was you love that they had said that art is subjective. You said it reminded you of a quote that Marilyn Manson made saying that art should never be an answer but a question of which I completely agree with but here's a little bit more information on that. Anton Chekov is who originally said that and what he said was the role of the artist is not to answer questions but to ask them. Regardless of who said it or how they said it is dead on and I mentioned that from time to time in my comments to some reactors comments section. I'm babbling thank you so very much Alex
