I love the fact that this was shot in the Philippines, a place where mental health is still not prioritised. Many of us needed to hear this. Thank you.

It's crazy how some artist can actually have an impact on your life

For someone still dealing with depression and anxiety, your songs comforts me to stray away from my inner darkness. Thank you, Lauv. We'll be alright.

''Depressed people are not weak, they just had been strong for too long..''

"Cause lately I've been in the backseat to my own life". That hit me hard.

This song saved my life one night. I had a bottle of pills by my bedside and I was going out of my mind. I lost my mother 7 months ago when I was 17, and I have always struggled with mental illness. I was home alone and in so much pain, and nobody knew what I was about to do. But my sister sent me this song at random that day, and I decided to listen to it. I have never related to a song more. After that song, I threw the pills away and I texted a suicide hotline. I got my meds fixed, and I am still fighting like hell to escape the black hole of depression. But this song made me realize that life is worth living.

This guy needs to be nominated for the Best New Artist Category this coming Grammy Awards 2020.

I was supposed to attend this concert last year, unfortunately my father got ill and passed away. Watching this, I just can't help thinking, if I were in that moment, I would've put my phone down and just appreciate this wonderful and brave human singing his emotions away. I would also most probably be bawling my eyes out.

"how raw and real do you want this mv to be?" lauv: yes

Weird how you can relate more with a stranger than with anyone you ever met in your life.

The person reading this: *You will be okay and you are amazing!*

Artists like Lauv are the reason why I still believe it is worth living in this cruel world.

"I don't want to be sad forever" "I don't want to go one more day" "I just want to wake up and realise everything's going to be okay "

This gave me goosebumps... Sending love to everyone out there struggling with mental illness!

Director- How many inspiring messages do you want in this video Lauv- Yes

If you read this, Never stop trying, you're not alone✨.

"I don't want to wake up and wonder what the hell am I doing this for?" I know that feeling.

Omg the message behind this. You put yourself in the most vulnerable position. Singing about your loneliness in the middle of a room full of people who love you and you finally stood up and took in your surroundings and started appreciating the love and you gave that love back to everyone in the stadium. Holy shiiiiiit man 🤯🤯🤯🤯

*The amount of people killing themselves because of their depression and anxiety is sad. I'll just say each and every one of us is strong. Don't ever give up*

Can’t believe this was 2 years ago. I’m so glad to be a part of this concert. It had two takes and if I remember correctly he actually requested fans to open our phone flashlights to achieve this effect. So I was really into the moment (as I wasn’t focused on recording but on watching) and it was so magical hearing it for the first time. ❤️ This was my very first arena concert ever! No regrets!

“I just wanna wake up and realise everything’s gonna be okay” That part though 💛 Wow thanks everyone for the likes! I hope you all have an amazing and beautiful day because we are all worth it 💛

Love the ones who weren't recording with their phone, just trying enjoy the moment, live in the PRESENT.

Cant wait for Lauv and LANY collaboration🖤💙

The fact that he premiered this song in front of the one happiest group of people on the planet ❤️

It was an honor for us filipinos, thank you so much for filming in Manila. ❤️❤️ Please be back soon. Edit: OMG I never had likes more than 10, thank you so much. Maraming salamat mga kaibigan.❤️

For anyone reading this... You’re worth it and don’t hurt yourself please, ok? I luvv you 🥺💜

When the lyrics said: “My mind, whispers in the night time voices always keeping me up telling me that I should give up” I.FELT.THAT

Thankyou for you guys who supports each together. We're (who has mental illness) really need this right now because the people in our circle doesn't believe with this kind of illness.

"Voices always keeping me up Telling me that I should give up" Wow. I felt that

No artist has made quite the volume of music that speaks to my soul like yours has. Thank you Lauv for your beautiful, creative, vulnerable, musical journey.

This is what music should do! Communicate! And he did!

If you’re reading this, you’re not in this battle alone. Take a look at the comments, everyone is struggling. You’re not weird for being sad. You feel like crying? Cry. You feel like screaming? Scream. But please don’t do anything harmful to yourself. Although we may be stranger, I know that you have the willpower to get through this. I love you. Stay swaggy

Omfg Lauv in the middle of the filipino crowd. My heart 💙

Director: how real you want this to be? Lauv: yes.

It's my first time losing someone because of suicide. We weren't even that close. I just heard from a friend of a friend. They asked me to go to her wattpad account after I sent my condolences. Turns out, she was an amazing writer and a lot more. Now that she's no longer in pain, I hope she really has fun up there. That's all.

I saw how filipino show our discipline to our visitor like Lauv keep up the good work Lauv! We Lauv you! Proud from PH🇵🇭

Im a Filipino and I'm a Psychology student. I have friends encountering depressive times of their lives. And you, Lauv, as an artist really gave what they needed: Opening the eyes of people about this issue. It is a GREAT help. Thank you for inspiring people. You are not alone in this. Don't forget to take care of yourself. We love you. You are an art yourself, Ari. Remember that. 💕

Director: How trippy do you want this to be? Lauv: *Yes*

This song saved my life, the same day it came out i was at a really bad season of depression and my life was just going down so quickly. I just felt like i was forgotten and just felt like no one really wanted me here. Some family problems and i lost many friends just at one take felt like my life faded so fast I didn’t even realize it. But this song came out just at a moment where i was gonna do something I’d regret,I’ve worked on myself and I’m better now i got some help. But this song it really saved me at the right timing , just remember never give up you are always loved , stay strong 💙

Why this guy is so underrated ? He should be topping the charts

For the one whose listening this music right now and feels the same way..... I LOVE YOU even we're strangers. Don't lose hope and always find your way out from the dark.

I literally cried while watching this. Because lately I feel so down and I don't know what am I suppose to do to cheer myself up. And gladly, I found this very beautiful song of yours. And I just realized that I'm not the only one whose suffering from this loneliness and depression. That there's a lot of things to do to help yourself. That you don't need to isolate yourself from people. You only need to reach out to your family or friends so that you will not feel that you're alone.

This was beautiful in such a bittersweet kind of way. Glad you took your pain and made art out of it! Truly touching!💛

God bless you for speaking out, thank you for helping me to realise what is going on in my life

2 years n After 2 years, I am here again.. remembering how this song helped me make it through my toughest nights n see the brights through my darkest wall. Looking back I almost never survive.It is still a long journey, saying the word 'I don't wanna b sad anymore' brought tears still... but here i am waking up everyday trying my very best to not b sad anymore cause I don't wanna b sad forever. Thank you Lauv. God bless.

As someone who has been surviving from depression for years, this is relatable. Things I wanna say to parents and friends when they say I should "just" get over it.

Thank you for being honest with your music 💙

*"I don't wanna be medicated, I don't wanna go through that war, I don't wanna be sad, I don't wanna-"* 😌💔

OH MAN I LOVE YOU

Your voice just makes me so much happier every time thanks for this Lauv💙💙💙💙💙
