We’re always here for you, James! You always need to put your mental health first!
@Samuel Carlin I was thinking this
agreed..and greetings from germany
@Ultimate Chad i agree, but they might actually be genuine, eho knows
No no no plz didn’t stop
Agree
Guys thank you for all your hard word all these years. Best wishes to James to get his mojo back. The community is behind him.
@Da MooseThere are a ton of really people in the comments who are making fun of the situation, so some of the good comments are getting deleted by accident as well
I thought someone commented on this? Whats wrong with youtube? This has been growing. I bet even this one will dissappear
BRO YOU BE WASTING £20 ON SOMEONE U DONT KNOW UR STUPID ASF
I feel so horrible that I had no idea these guys were suffering from so much money loss and tiresome work. I really hope James gets better soon. Cry if you love the Hacksmith
I know exactly what you mean. It’s so easy to just consider them as electronic entertainers.
Not gonna cry but i love james and his friends, gonna pray
You could feel the change when they left the garage. Alec Steele is another one, he recently did a review of one of his earliest videos and realised how much he and his channel has changed chasing the algorithm.
@Christophe Groulx he got really skinny and pale his facial features grew longer and pointier and he all around looked like he was spiraling (with money).
@Da Moose What was the body change?
James, even though you most likely will not see this, im an engineering student in college and have stuck with my goal of a degree through some not so easy cross roads on that path. You and your team striving to make this work, all those hours you guys have done, all the failures and successes have brought me inspiration, drive, enjoyment, and so much more. So thank you for everything you have done for me and my life (even though you havent met me), I will stay here to support the videos to follow. and in my opinion, take time to get well and enjoy everything you do as that is what you and your team has inspired me to do.
As somebody who is currently high-functioning-depressed, and putting a brave face on it and hiding it from everyone else, hope James is able to get through the feeling of emptyness that seems to overtake everything else and seems to stop you from being able to enjoy anything or fill yourself with any sort of happyness at all. Hope James knows that he isnt alone.
Sounds like we are in the same street 👍
@Da Moose It has been deleted
Why cant i read the comment on this?
BRO YOU BE WASTING £2 ON SOMEONE U DONT KNOW UR STUPID ASF
Not sure what to say James except thank you for your honesty. I think this is a video that will resonate with a lot of creators and it goes a long way to help destigmatize mental health issues. I really wish you the best and you are absolutely making the right call here in prioritizing the health of your brain
❤️👊🏼❤️
Hi
Can you help them, Mark?
I think some collaboration videos with you might give them a good push in the right direction. I think their videos have a great deal of potential. It’s just that they aren’t harnessing it effectively. I think if they tweak their video format a little bit, their channel would be golden.
Marky😭
I hope that you are having a good day
I hope to see a mental health collab someday from the science wiz and real life superhero. Talking about mental health and how even some of the smartest people in the world struggle with common issues.
James, you are an inspiration to me, the work you’ve done over the years, and what you’ve managed to achieve, I look forward to seeing your vision come to fruition. Take as much time as you need, your true fans will always be here for you.
i would donate but im a kid
Love seeing the support! Gives a lot of people hope in the world
@ShitposterYT some money is better than no money
To low money lol
This is so important. Our world is so obsessed with output, and it leads people to disregard their mental health for the “grindset”. James taking a break is awesome. Thanks for all the awesome videos over the years!
Fantastic way to put it
You’re channel is an inspiration. But you as people are the reason why people keep coming back, thank you for your efforts.
Damn 50 bucks good on you man respect🙏
It’s hard to hear stories about depression because it’s something many people deal with but those around them don’t know about.
This channel is huge, the team has done so much to be proud of! So many world records and huge collaboration projects!
Please make sure to take this seriously and get the help you need.
