    WATCH NEXT: Over the past decade, organised crime groups from Albania have taken over huge sections of the cocaine trade – particularly trafficking to Europe, which has become the biggest coke market in the world. - https://youtu.be/mXY2F9sShFk
  • Magic mushrooms have allowed me to tap into my creative potential and explore new ideas.
  • As someone with bipolar II I’d never in a million years choose to live with this illness than to not. I’ve lost all my friends because of it. I’ve lost great jobs because of it. I lost my car. I went to jail. I went into debt I’m still trying to get out of. And I have parents that still think I’m just mopping around and being lazy.
  • I was severely traumatized years ago as a teenage, got diagnosed with bipolar. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Spent my whole life fighting bipolar. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.
  • Can’t believe the thumbnail is a handful of Xanax, such a bad way to represent mental illness and benzo addiction
  • @tech1238
    A lot more people than we realise suffer in silence without being diagnosed.
  • That dude is a real friend, lots of guys aren’t open but the fact that he checks in on his friends and their mental health proved that man is a good human
  • @maar8314
    Can we just appreciate how great of a friend the mechanic is? It makes me want to cry because I’ve never had that pure love from a friend. But it makes me really happy they have each other!
  • @annarita2322
    I suffered the borderline disorder for over 23 years. With so much anxietyNot until I came across psilocybin mushrooms treatmentPsilocybin treatment actually saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms

    People don't realize how exhausting it is. You feel like you're stuck. You feel unfixable and incapable of change. You're always going to be running back and forth between two terrifying places
  • @elle9547
    i feel like this disorder isn't taken as seriously because we're not depressed all the time, like there's periods where we are fine and everyone is like see it's not that bad, and then the very next day i could think my life isn't worth living or i could be blowing through my entire bank account. i hate this disorder so much
  • Once I removed alcohol and 420 from my life, and allowed the meds to do their thing, I have been as even keeled as I have ever been. Sobriety has been the key for me, 392 days and going strong...
  • @Donyflox
    Psychedelic are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough.it's fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety..it saved my life
  • praying for all of us who suffer with these invisible illnesses... feels like I’m invisible at times.
  • This pandemic is exasperating my bipolar so bad. I can't get to therapy and I don't have a schedule. 🙃 Edit: guys I'm doing so much better! I've been doing therapy via zoom and I love my therapist. I've connected with her more than those in the past (probably why I quit.) I have new insight, a new job, and I'm packing for a big move. If you're struggling keep the faith. Good things are right around the corner. I promise.
  • I was diagnosed with BPD and Bipolar disorder. The hardest part for me is when those days come when I have no energy and even a text message is too much. People think I’m lazy and love failing. Imagine waking up in bed and being so drained and terrified at the same time. It’s a miracle I’m still here and accomplished what I have.
  • @trishdaG
    Watched this video as a dear friend of mine has Bipolar 2. This helps to understand what she goes through and hearing the guy in this video share his experiences I can see some similarities with my friend. She's a great person and friend living with this illness and I just want to understand more of what she goes through and continue supporting and being there for her as much as possible.
  • Bipolar people are the most kind, gentle, fun, generous and emphatic people i meet. You just have to ignore some of the strange things that can happen during episodes, because it is not them. It is the disorder.
  • I think we also need to recognize that stumbling upon a dead body would traumatize anyone, not just someone with bipolar disorder. It’s possible to have both PTSD and Bipolar disorder at the same time.
  • @ohjem3036
    It’s important to find a support system to reach out to try to communicate what’s going on. And really really be more intune with yourself. I didn’t know I had bpd 2 until I stayed up 4 days straight & it was scary…. But im glad I found help because it was what I needed.
