Alright N That UK much love sir

Yes bro, that's soo nice to hear. Congratulations, that's amazing... 🍒

Well done! much respect to you.

That's fucking brilliant man that's incredible.

Cheers mate appreciate it - Russel has prooved he is nothing but a really good guy more than enough money to live comfortably yet openly admits his heroin addiciton to try and save others and I now myself do the same thing but unfortunately we can't save everyone due to the Evil nature of this world. I hope to meet Russel one day to thank him as he speaks nothing but the truth. When you do that shit its cos you feel you are for some reason not good enough but true happiness is realising we are all equals, all nothing but molecules and atoms so Dragonfly I thank you too for taking the time to reply. We do not need killings we are not put on this planet to kill each other. Respect bro.

laugh out loud Me too

This is true!

GrandFather is 98 this year. Gods bless you. After death, love is all xX I would recommend trying DMT at that age. If you cant get any DMT then go to your local pub and ask for some LSD. Don't be afraid of chasing dragons when you're older x

I'm almost 57 & finally learning all this that I did innately before but didn't know what I was doing. Then I lost my balance & getting it back with a purpose & understanding. ❤

I'm 29 and agree, but people like Russell are rare beacons of hope

NothingHereMoveOn Ruby should have her own talk show on radio.

+ I'm the cosmos Thank you. That's probably the most encouraging and thoughtful thing someone has ever said to me on KZfaq. I'm working on becoming a better person. I struggle terribly with anxiety - I see more and more senseless violence in America, from within and from outside sources, and it makes me incredibly anxious to go out in public. I don't want to just hide in my own home. I want to go out and breathe fresh air and meet new people and interact with those who have the same ideas and ideals as I do. And I struggle very badly with various addictions. I can freely admit that even at the age of 49 I am a work in progress. That, perhaps, is the first step in the right direction.

She was very patient and compassionate when Russell started to follow only his own ideas about mindfulness and "consciousness"...

She is great - gives a great hug, too

Ruby Wax is a liar when she says depression is a brain disease and its very irresponsible to her to say so. Lets take a real disease like diabetes, if you suspect diabetes your urine sample will be tested for glucose. Urine doesn't normally contain glucose, but glucose can pass from the kidneys into your urine if you have diabetes. If your urine contains glucose, a specialised blood test known as glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) can be used to determine whether you have diabetes. However is you suspect depression your urine isn't tested, no blood test or any other biological test is given, and the reason is very simple, its because depression is NOT a real disease. At the moment the whole premise behind psychiatry is that if you're mentally ill its due to a biological problem like a brain disease which is a lie. This means society can carry on screwing people over and making them ill because if its a brain problem then nothing needs to change and those who do thrive in this environment will continue to do so. Psychiatrist use a book called the DSM to diagnose people however most of the illnesses are voted into existence by the American Psychiatric Association, none are discovered in the laboratory. In fact most mental illnesses are diagnosed through an interview. Can you imagine a normal doctor giving someone insulin, chemotherapy, drugs to treat cancer etc on the basis of an interview? If I'm going to have chemotherapy or be put on a life long drug treatment plan then I want a test to prove it especially when psychiatric drugs can causes liver, kidney damage and other health problems.

To me he is like the boy who pointed out that the Emperor wasn't wearing any clothes! We need people like this. However annoying some might find him, he does put stuff on the agenda which was previously outside the bounds of accepted dialogue....he smashes through ideologies with a sledgehammer and for that I salute him!

She's never talked about both parents being narcissists that I'm aware of

@@andyd6338 She did, but she doesn't want to focus on them.

Being Sarah you helped me so very much! I cannot belive I came here and found you again, we never met but you put some things on KZfaq that myself and group used in therapy to express things that we couldn't for ourselves. 🤗😍 so happy your present. Thank you for being honest, open and uploading. Peace out x

moonbeam beth Oh wow.... thank YOU... You've made me smile on a very bad day... thank you xxx

Being Sarah a bad day sucks, please keep being just beautiful you, nothing more and nothing less than your unique self. More than me are with you in spirit, if you breath deep you may feel us on the breeze xxx

Yes I agree with this analysis.

Yes, but RW has always maintained she wasn't capable of orchestrating the big changes, she freely admits other people can do it and do it better. And I've heard Ms Wax speak of the various conditions that contribute to mental illness. She addresses them and advocates change for an individual where possible. Sometimes people can't change the circumstances that contribute to their depression, and if that's the case, these people need coping tools. If Brand wants to start a revolution Ms wax would be right beside him lending her support. Ms Wax adds her voice and effort to helping peeps cope. Sometimes that's all peeps can do, just take one minute at a time and cope, or survive as the case may be. My sister suicided at age 48 because she was overwhelmed and couldn't cope with her depression. For me personally, Ms Wax's humourous descriptions of her depressive symptoms and episodes are the only thing I've found that makes me laugh and assists me with making sense of some of the aspects of my own experience with depression. I've tried to bring about change in my family to the detriment of my own mental health after my sister died, I experienced severe backlash and scapegoat abuse. In my experience suicide as a result of depression really is the last taboo...only exception is talking about that dead person.

G. Bell exactly!! Going vegan has saved my life and health in amazing ways. When all doctors told me I can't heal or need medication, I didn't believe it. I believe in my body's ability to heal when giving the proper diet and nutrients. Fruits and vegetables are more powerful than society has led us to believe. And removing meat/dairy/eggs the source of many ailments and animal/environmental suffering is vital !

Need I go on...... :) Best of luck with your journey! You're on the right path.

Jane McGrath mental health issues are merely the repercussions of an attempt of people to fit into something that does not fit into them. Expect it to rise significantly, suicides also. This is because the lost souls believe they are their minds and the product of thought... not the watcher of. I know cause by medical standards I’ve had every single one of them pathological titles. Messiah complex was the best tho. Lmao 😂

Ash E- I kinda get what you're saying. I feel that. My mental health issues (though at times debilitating) can be a blessing. I watch my thoughts very closely these days since I stopped drinking (almost 9 months) and realized that I am not my thoughts and with it I am not one organism sustaining itself. There's a symbiotic relationship with all life and all matter/material. There must be a connection to something greater than ourselves and I'm not talking deities. I can sometimes feel very overwhelmed by the amount of information the world can offer the mind. In sight, sounds, smells, feeling, emotion and I have to really struggle to focus my mind back to a pleasant peaceful state . I've spent all my adolescents and adulthood surrounded by it. But, then I guess that's why I started drinking and using to switch it all off dull the senses. It got to a point were I'd look forward to the abysmal headaches (*edit* and hangovers) in the wake of a days long binge because I felt calm in that pain and suffering I could focus my mind on it and when drunk, it's just, switched off and someone else was driving. My brain is hard wired into the existential and I don't think that calling it a crisis is very fair. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

TheDragonfly ShakaBooKa 🤯 The reality we’re sold is dryer than the Sahara The belief in it will leave you forever in Samsara They handed you crumbs and you just sat there and ate it Now every weekend your attempting to escape it Never questioning your story and who the hell made it Millions of beings are trapped in this wheel Believing every bit of this illusive spill All this energy wasted in fiction You were never told the truth So now it’s time to listen Let finding your self be your life mission You are an immortal soul occupying a human body Love is your number one hobby But they want you to believe you’re just meat and bones And now they’ve got you hooked on information and image stimulating phones You’ve believe so much in your story you tell yourself Not realising this is what harms your health Death is not coming for the soul So who is afraid right now You’re just an actor and acting out who you think you are. We’re all in fact producing our own little movie star The truth is so obscured and yet so obviously blatant It’s time to meet “God” and get reacquainted Once you’re touched by life everything falls into place And you like me will see the madness off the human race.

That's a very poignant poem. Did you write that ?

TheDragonfly yes mate

i love the way you worded that!

Psychiatry Capitalist Fraud that conversation has done nothin for you has it! Your in a rage

I'm not in a rage, we live in a dormant uncaring society so it hard to wake people up when they've been conditioned from a young age. I've got my own You Tube channel where I air my views and sometimes I ring BBC London Radio and LBC to give my opinions, nothing much changes though lol

Psychiatry Capitalist Fraud I understand your frustration and I can sympathise and relate to not always being treated appropriately or accurately and with my (the patient) best interest. Also I do agree that there is a big business in pharmaceuticals, and I must say that everyone being told “it’s a chemical imbalance” for the last few decades is false information. How do we know that it is false? Because they have no baseline of comparison. Where I disagree with you is this, and I hope you do consider what I’m saying. Just because a test has not been invented does not mean that a disease does not exist. Think about the onset of any kind of disease outbreak.Or a better example, late stage Lyme disease (which causes mental and physical illness) can not be tested for using the antibody test because the immune system has been destroyed and under immune suppression you won’t make the antibodies. They have recently found new ways of testing. Also, knowing just how debilitating mental health can be (just as much as physical) I think it’s fair to acknowledge the brain is in suffering, has an illness, and that illness is real, physical, and felt very deeply. Did you know depression can cause brain inflammation and vice versa? A bit of a chicken and egg thought for you there, because until a root cause is identified, who knows what test even fits? In closing I must also mention that there are many studies showing that a parasite problem can cause psychological illness, as can heavy metal poisoning. They are very real and physical problems that cause this physical and mental suffering of disease. Symptoms are varied and chronically severe in many cases. Parasites, heavy metals, autoimmune reactions to foods and toxins can all affect the mind. My worst experience, my deepest depression, was when I was living with mold. Google the effects of mold illness on mental health, or mold rage. Mold/mould causes the brain to both shrink and swell causing a wide range of psychological problems.

Spot on! The whole point is to have direct experience

me too, I wish it was longer.

louise you are sooo not alone. Wish you well and hoping you find your peace 🤗

Have you ever tried psilocybin or DMT?

Thankyou for taking the time to wish me well .I hope peace and happyness for you. Lou.

I live in S.Wales I'm 49 years old and it was a right of passage at 11 years old to use psilocybin and have used them many times since for spiritual experiances. I would like to give DMT a try one day soon also.

Jason Gray I do really hope that meditation can be taught in schools, as well as an awareness of Mental Health Issues/Self Esteem etc. I am glad that there are courses out there that are starting to encourage this 👍

Programed , trained in falseness , break free ,,,,, Poem with fire , is FIRE,

Ash E Great poem, deep message

The beings and generations that follow ours and those that follow those will remember quicker and quicker. The world is awakening, mental illness will rise as souls struggle to handle society’s narratives and their own inner awakenings, chaos, suicides, will humanity save itself or will we let the whole house of cards come crashing down on ourselves? 🌈 Stay tuned in folks !

Ash E Wow, that's cool man... I like it, I like it a lot...

I'm the cosmos I’ve been one of those who was in ignorance, have compassion in realising these people are only ignorant because they’ve been trained to be. Our society is full of fear, the real battle and choice has always between fear or love. It’s just a choice but people believe they are the story of the person they have been trained to identify with. What we need to work on the children of the world, mediation and introducing them to the inter dimensional heart-space that exists within all of us. The problem is this doesn’t help with the economy, we no longer become passive, fearful consumers, going through life obtaining. We become free!. What use is this to a dead world ideology?. This is why there is war on consciousness albeit a war on us as a collective.

This is so important! ❤
