Own....experience...


I don't know how to start. I was.... crying all the time. I know those situations. This world is ill, and we are sick.
I saw world as Dominik did. I had luck. I wasn't an adult, I was 17 years old. I've suffered from depresions, anxiety and distress, and selfharming. That's my illness. And virtual reality was helping me a lot. There were people, who could understand me.
When my parents send me to hospital, I hated them for that, but now I know, they saved my live.
You cannot be fully healed from this. But I won one fight when I came back from hospital. War is still there. My panics in crowds, my fear. But now I know, I won most of my fights, and I feel stronger when I win another one.
Now... In my 21 years, I'm still doing highschool. Still waiting to pass 2 years and then graduation/school-leaving exam. I can't say I feel happy. But I'm alive. That's the meaning. Stay alive to see and try more.

I wanna recommend this movie for people, who are searching themselfs.

I'm sorry to hear your troubles! I've also been through a heck of a lot but I eventually overcame most of it. It's great to hear of your optimism.


This movie is incredible, loved it!

I was depressed in high school too, but fortunately did not hang out with other depressed/suicidal teens. Maybe talking with other people with the same problems is good for some people, but it can be bad for others. I still have depression and anxiety and almost ended my life last year, but things have gotten a lot better since, and I know I have to take control. I only talk to other people with depression or suicidal tendencies to help them NOT suicide and move on with life, not the other way around like in this movie.

the boy was stupid!he had great supporting parents ,he could've just change his school,for God's sake
most troubled depressed teenagers or newly adults suffer from the bad treatment they get in the family,out of the family everything,well at least most things are solvable.imagine you cut your wrist & you're freaking out think u'r gonna die & your parents tell you to hell with you we won't take you to a clinic you better die anyway!!!


there r no shortcuts in life.every shortcut leads to consequences that make us stray from our path

His parents weren't supportive, their minds were occupied by work, social acceptance and cheating. They discovered after a week that he had not been out of the room, how can caring parents not be aware of something like that?
Even when they tried to get him out it's more in concern about his exam than his actual welfare, they don't accept the help from the psychiatrist who honestly says it will take time, effort and actual caring, all they want are pills, a quick fix.
When they are asked about how he is as an person, his interests, what books he reads, his taste in music and so forth they don't know.


Don't tell me, it's no use to me. Tell yourself if you want to but don't tell me.

hope that life is better for you forever

Using vomiting or stomach viruses or sicknesses for humor or entertainment is wrong

Stay strong, all of you! I cried all the time during the film too because I related myself to Dominik very much. The actor plays his character very strongly, doesn't he?
I hope the life treats you all well, don't give up. Please remember there's always a light.
