the sad thing about feeling this comforted and close to strangers is that I'll never get to tell them and they'll never know I exist. being a fan looks so simple from the outside but its so painful sometimes. I love all of them so much

I just woke up and wasn't gonna go to school bcs I haven't been feeling mentally well. At school I usually watch skz vids to keep myself calm. I'm so thankful for knowing them

"Why do you like them so much? They dont even care about you." Stray kids:

Chan words makes me cry and I love how they are giving good advice. And how they will always be there for us.

I just cried while watching the entire video (especially during Chan and Lee Know's part). Honestly, SKZ helped me a lot to relieve my physical, emotional and mental stress for the past few months. The people around me mostly sees that I'm just a super fangirl or a super STAY, but beyond that, they do not see the emotional relativity or empathy that I'm experiencing everytime I'm watching or listening to any SKZ related content or songs. I used to stan other groups as well before I met SKZ (BTS and DAY6 specifically) but I do not experience those things with them. Through SKZ, I managed to overcome the unrequited love that I had with a friend. I deeply fell in love with him and I kept that feelings to myself for more than 3 years, only to got crashed when I learned that he is already with someone else for how many years now. The song Gone Away is the perfect song that describes the feeling I had with him. When I'm listening to the song, it constantly reminds me of him so much that I'm often tearing up until it hurts no more. Also, I'm having a recurring depression/anxiety episodes due to pressures in working and personal life. Even before I become a STAY, I'm always contemplating if my life keeps on going like a never ending redundant cycle. I'm actually torn between pursuing my own happiness to achieve my dreams and continuously supporting my family through the stable corporate job I have as a means of obligation to my parents. Being the main breadwinner of the family, I can provide all of their needs through twice a month support. But as time goes by, it slowly takes a toll to my physical and mental health (working long hours while facing the customer is no joke though). Ever since I started working years ago, I didn't realize that I slowly lost one of my passions in life which is arts, specifically drawing. Now, I'm trying to regain my lost passion in drawing since this makes me happy during my earlier years and it only got sidelined due to familial obligations. Also, its challenging for me to open up to my parents since they're kinda kkondae. Everytime when I open up my issues to them, its either they will dismiss me, they will scold me or they will just only say "cheer up!" like the issue will go away instantly where in fact it is not that easy. Also, the hard thing is that they are not open to mental issues as when topics like these were discussed in front of them, its like they're not totally aware or they do not have an idea about it so they dismissed the topic easily. When I become a STAY, the songs My Pace, Levanter and Gone Days really helped me with these kind of situation I have. Good thing also that I have my own set of friends that helped me in my situation where I could confide to them my own worries and feelings regarding family and work. For now, I decided to pursue again my lost passion in drawing and learn other interests like graphic designing, writing and learning languages but I'm still thinking on how and where should I start. I'm also afraid that if I were to decide to leave my stable corporate job in the near future to pursue my own interests and switch careers as well, my parents will give me a sense of guilt tripping like "You're the main bread winner in the family. If you will gonna resign, what will happen to us? Where can we get enough financial support?" and such. Honestly, my parents are one of my main reasons why I'm constantly having recurring depression/anxiety issues so that's why I'm also having a hard time opening up to them. The fact that when they did the biggest decision mistake during their younger years, it greatly affects the family as a whole even until now (this reminds me 90% of Chan's statement on one of his older Vlive streams that is related to WJ situation). I'm praying to God to give me more guidance in regards to my career decisions and to overcome the situation I have with my family. And I'm also grateful to SKZ for the inspiration they gave me to continue living for my own dreams, pursue my happiness and move on with my life. ❤️

That fact that fix you was playing during Chan’s “speech” is beautiful 😭

I love stray kids so fucking much like if they didn't exist i would have been the saddest person. I'm literally so proud and thankful for their existence.

Yk that sound on TikTok that goes “this is a place where I don’t feel alone…this is a place where I feel at home” That sound explains stray kids

Im holding back tears rn. Stray kids are stays happy place and their comfort. I feel like they don't realise how much they mean to us and how much their kind words mean to us

Why can't there be more human beings like these 8?!? The world needs more love, care, and understanding that these 8 have and share. I am so happy I found Stray Kids 3 weeks ago. I wish I had found them earlier, but I'm so happy to be here now.

honestly these guys have comforted me more than my parents. my mum always says that i cry for attention and i dont really feel that way. i hide my emotions until i get to my room whenever i get told that. i have a breakdown and then i listen to comforting words from stray kids and everything gets better. i wish i could tell them how much i appreciate them i hurt myself every time something bad happens to me and i feel like the world would be better off without me

i’ve honestly haven’t been myself these days, for gods sake I don’t even know who I am. I always pretend to be someone i’m not just for people to like me but i still end up getting hurt in the end… the beginning of this year i was in a really dark place and that’s when i found this amazing group. This group has honestly made my life so much better and always cheer me up. When i’m down i always watch skz content bc it always makes my day so much better, i really don’t know how much worse my life, how much more depressed i’d be without these 8 people

Im so grateful for stray kids if i didnt start to stan them 4 months back i dont know if i would survive. Thank you stray kids for everything you do for us

I wish I had influences like this when I was young. How healing to hear these young men encourage us and speak words of wisdom and kindness. Thank you, Stray Kids. I’m an old lady, but I love you guys and you give me hope for our future.

My mom just thinks "I'm obsessed with Koreans" because I'm into Kpop and often explore the culture out of curiosity She thinks I'm to into stray kids but she dosent understand they give me mortal happiness when they do things like this and they're such getaway, unfrountly they are only on the screen but they did truly save my life

Thank you so much for this video! My anxiety was intense today and I felt like crying, but this video brought me the comfort I needed and a safe way to vent my tears by converting them into positive emotions. 😢😊🥰 SKZ are definitely my sanctuary, my home.

i can honestly say these are the most sweetest guys youll ever see or meet! you dont get alot of artist being this concerned with their fans and for them to take the time to try and help people who are struggling is a big PLUS for me :)

everyday feels like loop hole for me coz im doing the same thing everyday, sleep-eat-work, going through that everyday and kpop literally became my escape and SKZ was one of those who keep my sanity.

I was feeling lost and needed someone right now. So, I came to home, and it was best decision I made today. Also I'm so proud of seungmin.

I always come here whenever I feel down, I always hurt myself whenever something happens but I'm so glad that I found them. Now I finally know that there's someone who listens to me, comforts me, i don't think im lonely anymore cause I have them!

Ik that if the whole world pushes me away and says I’m gross, skz will come up behind me and give me a hug and that’s the most comforting thing to know ❤

I admitted that I got trauma, and depression, I just exist try to breath and eat what I want. I don't know what broken inside me. I feel restless and my muscles tremble. Then I find this video, and I cried badly. Thank god that I could cry, I could admit that I am in pain mentally. Thank you for let me expressing myself.

CHANGBIN LOOKS SO ADORABLE!! MY HEART CANT TAKE THIS

it’s so sad that i just wanna lean at chans shoulder and cry because he’s the type of guy that’ll comfort you whenever 😭

" You have 8 skz member and we'll always support you " That's enough for me

Tears streaming down my face I can’t stop crying thank u so so much for this

This is such a precious gift to our STAY friends! Thank you for making it 🖤

Thanks for making this... will definitely be coming back to it. This year has been really rough for me in university and there's a lot of pressure, lot of work i need to do, and so little time. I'm so tired of feeling anxious and stressed the whole time, i just want it all to be over. Stray Kids have really become a safe space to land in for me. I don't think a lot of people understand that. Nonetheless, I'm so grateful to them and can see the kids genuinely care for us.

I can’t stop crying in a good way. This 8 beautiful angels saved me ❤️ i’m so happy and thankful for knowing them. Thank you for making this video 🫶🏻

They are soo loving and supportive 😭

Im crying all days and my panic attacks are getting worse and i watched this and let it all out and now im feeling way better. Thank u so much for making this video.

Me crying shaking and throwing up and the next week going to kcon and talking to Bang Chan at a fan meet was the reason I'm not dead :)

THANK U I NEEDED THIS I GOT BAD GRADES, DONT HAVE FRIEDNS AT SCHOOL AND I THINK I MIGHT HAVE A SOCIAL ANXIETY :-( BUT THIS HELPED ME

to the last vid: that time really helped me, because I was doing sh because I hate myself but bangchan really helped me, his words are comforting, I wish I really could go tell them and tell him how grateful and thankful I am that they existed in this cruel world. I wish I could tell bang chan how much I love him for comforting me through my sad times. I wish I could tell stray kids how much I love all of them. They were always there in my toughest times where I had no one by my side. They're always there to comfort me, I wish I could tell them how much I'm thankful for their existence, for their comfort. They are literally our unpaid therapist. I love stray kids so much, I'm so glad that I stanned this boy group. When I'm really lost they're always there, their words, their comforts, their whole existence. I'm so thankful they exists. I really really love you stray kids! I love you all so muchh! I know you guys will not see this but I really love all of you so much🥺

i was crying this entire video and felix said “why are you crying? if stay cries then should i cry with you?”, and lee know said, “i hope stray kids can make stay happy and smile too!” i started crying harder. my life would be hell without these eight angels

i am in hard exams and i dosent feel okay but now im so cnfident thanks🥰🥰

Stray Kids has helped me through a lot of hard times

I think my mental health just got better ❤

bro when I tell you this video came at the perfect time. I really needed it, thank u ❤

i always come back to this video whenever im feeling tired or unmotivated, skz keeps me going and stops me from giving up

4:32 omg with the scientist in the background, Chan, don’t make me cry for real

I always turn to skz whenever I feel unsafe, the power they hold is out of this world

Honestly as a baby stay, I really really like the fact that they always make us comfortable in any things. Even though some of us stay's are really far from them, they try their best to connect with us and try to help us in any possible way and at any time they can. And the fact that it actually helps makes me wanna cry or meet them. Chan really makes me feel better at any ways. Thank you skz for always having our backs and making us look forward on other things, I had made the right decision to Stan them. Saranghae😁

They make me feel so loved no man alive can ever compete with that

this is what I need but also its making me sob harder. Stray Kids are way too sweet and I know these words weren't for me but they still mean a lot. thank you Stray Kids for being so wonderful, genuine and kind. thank you Stay for being so sweet and giving them a reason to stay around. thank you to the person who made this so I had a small feel of comfort.

I'm gonna save this video, It just made me cry all that I needed, the words, the hugs and the pats make me happy 😭

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS. I've been sick for a couple days and I don't be able to study... And it makes me feel a lot of pressure... With a few minutes from this video I start to crying, idk why, but then I realized the amount of things that I going through... THANK YOU

Thank you so much for this video. I really needed it.. It’s two a.m and I’m crying but it feels real good so thanks again.

Thank you for putting this together! Cried like a baby but it helped me go through such a hard day/time in my life! ❤

Hey who ever you are.. i dont know you, probably will never even meet you.. but i am so so grateful to you for making this compilation. I just hope you are doing well. Thank you so much for making my day better. And to all the stays out there thank you guys for being my safe space. I love you all for sharing your life stories and moments. I hope you all can overcome hard times and have hope and believe in yourselves.. ❤

this video is beautiful, thank you for making it

Thank you so mcuh for the video it made me so comfortable and confident without them i don't know what'll happend , whenever i feel lonely and sad i know they are always there for us

All of the frustration, stress, insecurities, and criticism all gets to me. I hate it so much and I can’t find the words to tell my closest friends or my own family members. I feel like the only safe spot I have is SKZ (lol) bc they sometimes make me feel better than when anyone else comforts me. Ofc, I love my family and friends, but my anxieties and stress sometimes takes over me, not allowing me to reach out to others for help.It’s ok to have bad days or to cry, good things happen too! I’m very grateful for the ppl I have in my life, and skz. I love SKZ, and I hope I can tell them one day how much they have helped me in times of need.

Never have i heard such kind words from my mum but im hearing this from my favourite 8member group. I cant stop crying i them so much

I'm highly indebted to them...they make me smile everyday no matter what🌹i wanna hug them tightly when we meet. They are keeping me alive inside for a long time❤️

wow, changbin's has been putting a lot of effort into learning english, so cute

"Stray Kids comfort words that helped my mental health" "MaHAGrID"

these angles are practically raising me atp idk where id be without them love them sm

They are the meaning of comfort, home, safe place, calm after a storm,

If I could like this 1,000x over I would, this was exactly what I needed 😭 I mean I was crying within approximately .02 seconds, but that's just because everything they share is so sweet and understanding. Celebrities and especially men don't often share and talk about these kinds of things and it truly touches my heart. Everyone can relate to and be not only reassured but validated by these sweet guys and it makes me that much more of a Stay for sure 💞 Thank you so much for sharing with us, I'm going to listen to this every single morning 💙

Yup, KZfaq recommendations is stalking me.

Gosh i just cried with juste a minute pf them talking why am i so week

I was going through and still am going through a lot of body aches because of a field trip full of just working out and so my body was just not doing it. I watched this to take my mind off of it and I started to cry so much because they are so dang supportive ❤ My whole body from just head to toe is in pain and this video and them in general just makes me feel so loved and cared about ❤❤❤❤

ive been having such a hard time for way too long and havent had a good crying day like this bc i feel like i shouldn’t be and i should be old enough to not cry over small things like this, with that in mind i tried to go to sleep today but i felt even more exhausted today than usually so i searched skz video for fun. And i cried so hard cried my eyes out bc whatever they were saying was the exact words i wanted to hear honestly tysm for the video😢

Hearing Bang Chan talk about sh made me sob. I was having an awful night and this just made it 1000000x better. They are so special and they deserve the world

me crying the whole time... i searched for and watched this for a reason..

Today has been a rough day due to physical health just flopping and then my phone needing repair, I really need this

Chan and Felix's ones are the best imo. they're just so soft and everything they say feels so heartfelt

When Felix said don’t cry I was crying and I felt like he was really talking to me 🫶❤️‍🩹 he’s my comfort person even though he doesn’t know it 🫶🫶

I won’t have my phone and have connections with skz for a month probably because of a C I have in my science class. I was stressing to get it up and this really helped. I just retook a test to try and get my grade up. Thank you.

I'm honestly heart broken that I couldn't find Stray Kids earlier but i'm happy i found them and i'm going to STAY with them forever.

This helped me so much, I've been struggling with academics recently and i see only darkness but this gave me hope to work harder! I love them so much! Thank you to the creator who made this video, I'll always watch it. It's the best video I ever discovered! Thankyou so much❤❤

My parents don't want to let me do what I want, they don't want to let me choose the studies of my dream and they are constantly putting me down. I'm just so lost, I don't know what to do or how to break free from them. So this video was really helpful, it is helping me to feel a little bit more ok

I'm crying 😭😭 I miss chans room😭

So many people have been saying this already but thank you so much for making this. I hope it will reach a lot of stays who are struggling or having a hard time and will help them get through. This is so precious. I can’t thank you enough 🖤

The one thing that hurts me the most is that 8 men who don't even know that i exist are helping me out in my life and are giving me more comfort than my family. Will stan Stray Kids always ❤️‍🩹

The fact that some strangers make me feel safer than my parents ever did, makes me feel a little more hopeful that maybe i can get better without their support

My mom got terribly sick recently, mentally sick to be specific, because of this I had to go into custody with my dad and move away from my hometown..there is no words to be describe how extremely hard this has been for me, my mom is barely improving and everytime I visit she just isn't the same woman that raised me, it's something that's so incredibly heartbreaking. How in the world do you live without venting to your mom about a boy? Or laugh on a drive with her with our favorite music blasting? How do you do it? I miss her everyday and every time I have a chance to see her her hugs still feel the same but when I look up at her she just isn't herself, she's like a shell of what she used to be. Before this I've dealt with many challenging things and struggled with mental health, but this really made me hit rock bottom and was always thinking the worst, but then while moving over to my dads place I got into stray kids and it's been a little over a year that I've been a STAY and I can't thank them enough for being who they are, They genuinely saved me, genuinely. I have no idea what I would do without them, it was their voices that picked me up and helped me try hard again, to be a person again even, thank you stray kids, I'll be a STAY until the end.

I really wasn’t feeling good and this comforted me so much. Not necessarily feeling happier, but feeling more understood. I cant thank stray kids enough for everything they’ve done for me❤️

the first felix clip literally means so much to me 😭 he always says everything I need to hear when there's no one else but him, I really owe him everything and he's my motivation to keep going :( 💗

han's got me- i really needed that-

i am starting to notice how a bunch of 8 boys can make me feel emotionally, physically, and mentally good. it feels better than the love of my parents honestly... SKZ, as a STAY, i sincerely love you all 🤍

Thank you for making this video and thank you stray kids for comforting us 😭❤️

this really helped. i just had a bad fight with my dad and i was looking for a pick me up. this is everything i needed.

I cried throughout the whole video 😭😭 Why are they so sweet to people they don't even know 😭😭 My heart cannot take it 😢

This is like therapy for me I love them all :(( I don't feel like dying all of a sudden tysm for making thiss

Whenever i watch their comfort videos , there are 2 sides of me fighting 1: " but its impossible to get out its impossible, i cant , i cant, i cant !" 2: " they also went through hardships , maybe I'll not be sad when i look back on these days , just like them "

Today was so hard for me and ... Gosh I needed to cry really bad and guess what I found this video and cried every minute of it ... I can't imagine the amount of love I have for them in my heart , just seeing them saying these stuff makes me cry my eyes out but also makes my heart warm ... And thank you for making this video it just helped me pour everything out ... Thank you 💕

Thank You SKZ :),you make Stays STAY....

Whenever I feel sad I keep coming back to this video, gosh I dunno where I'd be if I didn't have straykids and stays. I love them so much I can feel the love that they're trying to give us and show us in these videos. All of them are so precious I can't😭 Thanks to them that my bad days become good. They're seriously my source of strength and knowing that I have straykids, i don't feel alone

I cried so much 🥹 they are definitely my safe place forever

I can't stop crying, I love them so much

I had a rough night my day was good and fine but I had a rough night and watching all the members made me tear up again but in a good way felix "don't stress" and lee know "keep going that's how you succeed" and Bangchans "ill be your motivation" really hit me and I appreciate and love all the members even more now. thank you for this video

People dont realise and they will never know how much they are saving my life sometimes. I know that I will never be able to meet them, but they have helped me so much .

Thank you so much for making this I especially needed this, because of the week and year I've had already and we aren't even halfway trhough the school year. And this just being from one of my fav groups just makes it 1000 times better so thank you again

i just had a very rough evening and honestly i thought i wouldnt make it through today but i did and now im watching this to make myself feel better :)

I've cried all entire video. It was just 12 minutes, but I cried more, than I usually cried in a months. Stray kids is just something else, yk. They are just like from another world, all of them. Like they've come to Earth just for help this world became kinder, warmer, more caring, more attentive. Just for make the world a better place and save us.

I'm watching this while doing homework at 7am. Really needed this as motivation

These lil comments and skz have saved me in more ways than one and they will never know but they helped design my tattoo that says “; Stayed ” the semicolon is in place of the i, and i wanna get stayed written like skz writing🥰 Thank you!!
