please don’t overanalyse dan’s video and make it about phan

sure phil did help. but at the end of the day DAN was the one who got HIMSELF out of HIS depression!! HE! DID! THAT!

“and i want other people going through mental health issues to know that they can talk about it and it can get better.”

Can we just take a minute to really appreciate how brave Dan was? Opening up to people you’re close to about your mental health can be terrifying and he just put a video out there knowing millions of people will see it. He could have been vague but he really went into detail about his personal experiences which could help a lot of his audience particularly young people who don’t fully understand what they’re going through. To know that even someone who is successful and has millions of fans is experiencing the same horrible thing as you is a real reminder mental health can affect anyone. When Dan talked about making a video on mental health I never expected he would be this raw or go into such personal detail and I think he should really be applauded for doing so as it’s such a difficult issue to talk about.

Strength.
