When I watched the first draft of this film all those weeks ago it hit me so hard that I felt like I couldn't even breathe. I felt that you had understood something about me that nobody else before had understood, and you'd captured it on film so perfectly. This film is me and everything I am, all rolled into one beautiful stunning little package, and it's the most generous gift anyone has ever given to me. I hope this film helps people, I hope it makes them feel empowered and strong, I hope it touches them in the same way it touches me, because this film isn't just about me, it's about the whole LGBT+ community, it's about all of us x

+Calum McSwiggan You are a true inspiration. I am a 51 yr old male in the USA and have struggled with mental health issues for over 1/2 my life. I am also bi-sexual and have been struggling with those feelings as well. My first wife was really discouraging when it came to LGBT issues. My current wife is totally accepting of my sexuality. I enjoy your KZfaq channel. Keep on keeping on and thanks for sharing your story.

+Calum McSwiggan This is a lovely film about a beautiful person.. I understand how you felt with depression.. It is how, just about 4-5 weeks ago, I felt about life. I didn't want to kill myself but just not exist anymore.. I came up with 3 reasons not to.. My children, my grandchildren and the fact that my parents had lost their youngest child (just 5 years ago) and I couldn't have them loose another.. I am still struggling to keep it together.. This film is like a snapshot of your life (or part of your life),. Calum, you are an inspiration to so many, including this older straight grandmother.. You are someone who cares, someone who informs and someone who teaches.. You are an asset to this world.. This world needs people like you.. And I think this film shows how the man you are today was formed.. Thank you Fraser and Calum for this insight into the man who is Calum McSwiggan..

But it's not just good, it's an absolutely stunning and amazing look into the life of someone I feel has become a huge part of my life, even if we've never met.. I don't know if Calum will see these comments as well, but I want him to know he's loved and treasured by so many of us now. Fraser, you have a gift.. I can't believe how amazing this film turned out, and I just want to hug both of you!

Listening to the terrible things that happened to you at your post office job brought a tear to my eye, I wanted you to step out of my laptop so I could give you a hug. It also made me very angry that any human being could do that to another, just because he was gay. I've watched your vlogs for about a year and a half now and the one thing that has always impressed me about you Calum, YOU are such a GREAT PERSON who really does care about other people. I'm so glad that you didn't end your life, because this world, our world needs and is in desperate need of more people just like you, people that DO CARE and are prepared to do something about it. With more people like YOU we can change this world, YOU inspire people like me to treat others with more thought and care. This Documentary is an excellent film which, hopefully, will inspire more "Calum McSwiggan's to come out and be their true selves. One other thing I loved about this film, it showed off that Beautiful smile of yours, a smile you should show more often. Lots of LOVE Calum and keep up the fight. John, in Yorkshire.

Because of personal events swirling about me, I am coming to this late, way late (more than four days) after it was posted. I feel there are no superlatives sufficient to describe how wonderful I think this small film is. Carried by gorgeous photography and brilliant editing, we encounter something even more wondrous: the beautiful soul that is Calum McSwiggan. Those of us who have followed his channel on KZfaq for any considerable time now get to see a depth and breadth of this remarkable person I feel we wouldn't get to see any other way. I found myself crying at the end, not from sadness but from the sheer joy of that revelation. And how the hell did you do that under-the-plane shot??!! Brilliant, Fraser and Calum! Simply brilliant. Bravo!

I went thru those feelings years ago, but haven ow accepted myself, although I am still in the closet. I am SO GLAD that today is so different than it was years ago, although as Calum says, there is still homophobia in this world. I wish the best for all of you younger guys, that you may live free!

I love calum with all my heart and it makes me so happy to personally hear why he goes through the efforts he does for his KZfaq channel. Calum you're amazing and I wish you the best in your future endeavors. And I have to say, even though I'm have a welcoming and accepting family and friends, I was terrified to come out because there were one or two homophobic people at my school and because of you I was able to come out and meet my amazing (now ex) girlfriend. I've learned so much from calum. I'm the Vice President of my schools LGBT+ club and every week I mention something said is a video that has been done by calum. I appreciate everything you do for us and for yourself. Stay amazing :)

I'm so glad to have watched your work, Mr. Green. Even though your subject's age and mine are quite far apart, the telling of the tale of one's depression and it's effect, is ageless. I too have felt as though I'd just like to jump off the balcony, quite literally as a matter of fact, but didn't, obviously. Calum has it right. Human beings are, "built to survive". Something inside all of us, gets us to not self-destruct, if we're lucky. Listening to that voice in our head, that reminds us of our worth to others and ourselves, when all around us is negative, is what Calum heard. Aren't we all the luckier for it. And of course to you, Mr. Green, with your marvelous talents of storytelling, and writing. I'm sure we'll all hear a lot more of you, in the future. Superb. Simply superb, sir!

@benth162 8 жыл бұрын

You really are a very special young man Calum. I am so glad they asked you to do this video, it is inspirational. When you described the emptiness, it brought back what I had felt at times in my life. One day I started out my day normally, and while driving to work something switched in my brain. I turned the car around and drove home. I took out all the pills I had from having a bad back and put them all out on the counter and stared at them for the longest time. Something inside of me decided not to go through with it and now some 25 years later I am in a relationship where love actually exist, instead of just two men cohabitating together. I pray that you find that special person who values and loves you for you, including your quirks, (that is if you have any). I am very happy for you and what you have accomplished in spite of the hardships you have had to endure. You are someone I could call my friend. Thanks buddy

I can't begin to tell you how much I needed this film right now. It's such a small thing but hearing someone I adore (Callum) talking about feeling how I feel right now, and talking about doing things I do rn, but using past tense makes me feel slightly more okay. Something about Callum has always resonated with me, I've always felt happiness in his videos. And it's not until now that I realise me(nearly 19 currently, in a small ish town, not out, and dreaming of suicide on various occasions) has something deeper with Callum. Thank you so fucking much for creating this. And thank you so much Callum for sharing this. It gives little depressed gays like me something to look forward to and something to aspire to and something to stay here for. I know I've said it loads of times in this comment but all I want to say is thank you. And if I see you at London pride this year Callum I'm going to hug you so tight if you'll allow me! Thank you. This video WILL save lives.

As someone who is gay, living in the Middle East...I just see no way out. If I go on with life, I'd end up being forced into an arranged marriage with a woman. I want to run. Flee. Anything. Every moment is painful. All I do is eat & eat & eat to ease the misery but it can only get me so far. I don't want to spend the rest of days miserable. There is no way out for me. Some of us are just not so lucky. Where do I go? Who do I go to? I have no one. No one to talk to. No one to hear me out. My family's 'love' for me would end as soon as they find out the truth. My friends would never understand me. I'm just....so tired. I don't have the strength to go on any longer. I see what lies ahead for me & I want nothing to do with it. It's too much. Every video I watch of a gay couple here or there, being in love, living happily....I watch that and it destroys me. I fight back envy but it takes over me. Why can't I have that?Why? Someone tell me. Why am I even writing any of this, it makes no difference.

I appreciate the courage you took to let us learn more about your journey and I think it makes you stronger and will build up your confidence. You are a very, very creative human being, Calum and I'm incredibly happy that i once found your KZfaq channel. Fraser's documentary itself is so well done!

This is absolutely brilliant and touching. There are parts that are so relatable to my own life. Fraser this is absolutely amazing and Calum, I didn't think it was possible to like you even more. You are amazing and have made it through a lot of garbage to a better place. It's inspiring!

Thank you Fraser for taking the time, money, and energy to do this Awemazing and inspirational piece of art. I always have described Calum as the glue that holds the LGBT YouTUbe family together and now i have a deeper understanding of why he is such an important part to this community.
