You sir are a very special person... You will never know what you doing this for Sheila, meant to her and to me.. Sheila and I have been best friends since we met in the sixth grade and have walked such similar paths in life we have truly become sisters in spirit and know we were somehow always destined to be in each others lives.. When Sheila and I reconnected after at least 15 years apart less than a year ago after the tragic death of her precious son Mason I remember texting her to please not shut me out because I had a feeling God was putting us back in each other's lives because he knew we were going to need each other more than we ever had before and little did I know at the time just how very true that was going to turn out to be and probably more than either of us thought it would be...I love you Sheila.. and thank you for being my friend by chance but most of all "Thank you" especially after losing my last remaining sibling suddenly last Thursday for now being my sister by choice!!!!❤️❤️

As a veteran that has PTSD, I fully understand how some of the smallest things can make some of the biggest impacts in our lives. It was an absolute pleasure to do this for her. Thank you for the kind words. And both of you keep up the communication. Friends are important.

I'm 50 now but as a child at 9 yrs old I was sexually abused for numerous years and never told anyone. The "Unpack all your baggage, Hide it in the attic, where you hope it disappears" is exactly what I did. 5 years ago I unpacked it after it never disappeared and have had a mess on my hands since. This is that one song that hits me so hard!!! Thanks for the vid! 👍

I've been a part of the misfits crowd myself for the majority of my life, just because some of us are off a bit doesn't mean that we're not good people and try to do good by others...even if the approach is unorthodox, the intent is in the right place even when the broken people are ones with so little to offer except for genuine understanding of what a person can be going through.

This song is a powerful visual representation to the saying: "Be kind. You never know what someone's going through." Get well quickly, Sheila!

Just seen Shinedown in concert! They are a wonderful band and speak to a lot of people. That part in the video where the woman helps pay at the checkout line is powerful. We have all been in that situation. I’ve had it done for me and I’ve helped other people. It’s about paying it forward and being kind to people. Thanks for this reaction.

Dude I was in the Army but never deployed. My 22 yo son is a Marine who is getting due to PTSD from seeing 3 suicides. He doesn't feel he should have it since he has never been deployed. He feels he is uitting on his country, the Corps etc. He's only 22. I feel for you guys. Thank you for this video.

@GR8K8 6 ай бұрын

Right?? Always be kind! It's so underrated but so much more important. You NEVER know with whom your path is crossing; music, these comments, reactions to music etc etc. I imagine myself on the worst days in my life; SO, treat the seemingly biggest ARSE in ur daily encounters like I would've wanted to be treated. That concept serves humanity at large. I'm not a vet but I have massive PTSD. Dealing my my eldest sons diagnosis, my ex husband almost killing me in a psychotic break, then my youngest son dying at 2&1/2 years. Hard, but doable. Still, ppl being kind and myself being kind, putting that in energetically MATTERS!!

Sheila hope surgery went well.I love Shinedown met them multiple times and got pics with Barry and Brent at their tour bus. Just great sweet guys. They went to Iraq during the war and played for the troops and hung out with them. I had a lot of veterans in my family so I really respected them. The video is on Vemo and KZfaq Shinedown Iraq 2006. The band had 2 different members. Thank you for your service!!

I loved watching this and your reaction!! I hope your friend enjoyed it as well! I'm so thankful for Shinedown bringing us so many songs with these messages regarding mental health! I actually got turned on to this band about 15+ yrs ago by my son. He sadly chose to leave this world 7 years ago,,,but between my faith in God and Shinedown songs,,,I can make it...and hopefully help someone out along the way!! Peace and blessings!!!

I'm 5 minutes in (I love Shinedown & have seen them more than a dozen times live...) but I can relate to being the last one called or not at all-from my childhood. I had friends but I wasn't that best friend. As an adult its different and I have good friends and I am called, so no one could ever understand that I could relate to being that person. Honestly it was you saying this that made me realize why no one gets it and maybe why even though I have my people now-it wasn't always easy for me to recognize why I can relate to not having them. Sorry for the ramble but thank you for helping me make sense of my feelings.

I was always the guy thats been there when someone needed somebody to help an ear to listen to them or give them some kind of encouragement and throw them a rope to pull them out of that hole, but not one of my friends or any of my family or co worker's had any idea what kind of hell I was inside of my own head!, between music, writing and a handful that stuck by me after I got hurt at work lost my job got depressed and fell back into addiction after being 11yrs clean, they've been there even when they didn't fully understand what head space I was in.

Good vibes going out to Shelia!! I was raised to help out and never look down on others. Always take care of yourself though. You can't help others if you don't care of yourself. I'm that person that is a sounding board for others. I'm also highly empathetic so it's a hard balance between being their for others and not overwhelming myself. It's great that you want to help out your fellow veterans and first responders. I hope your new group continues to be successful.

First things first, I hope Sheila is recovering well. Second, from one vet to another, thank you for your service and I hope you are doing great. Your reaction to this song falls 100% in line with my feelings on it. Shinedown has been one of my favorite bands for a long time, and I have seen them at least a dozen times. Their songs are deep and do a great job of identifying struggles many of us deal with. Great video. Peace and health!

This is a really strange coincidence since my name is Sheila also and I have had 4 spinal fusions from a work accident and I just happen to love Shinedown, Brent and this song especially. I do hope your back heals well Sheilagoss96 and there is hope. I was a weight lifter and my back is almost as strong as it used to be but gyms are freaked out by me and tend to not want me to use their facilities anymore which sucks. But now we will enjoy this song together as I hope you heal as well as I did.
