“Grief is just love with no place to go “ Jamie Anderson.

I suffered severe depression several years ago. I could remember several years ago after divorce with my wife which brought me into my disastrous journey on Alcohol and cigarettes. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.

I envy people who have never had to experience heartbreak. It literally feels like I can’t breathe, can’t stop crying. Can’t sleep. I feel numb

I pray I will never be the reason someone needs to cling to such videos for dear life for the sake of their mental health

My heart goes out to everyone here watching this video and helping yourself ❤️ I don’t know you or your story but I am so sorry for your loss.

My wife and are separating after 14 years of a beautiful relationship. Even in the end everything was peaceful. She's been devoured by her fear of getting old, her insecurities and traumas and influenced by new people she just met. She did not communicate. She cheated. She chose to live a new life instead of working through it with me. I failed as a husband. This was extremely painful but I refused to numb the pain. No partying, no going out every night, no alcohol and such. I allowed myself to feel all the pain. Now I still feel sad but I'm at peace. I now I did my best, I worked on myself to become a better man.

“Anger is a bodyguard for pain” *instant tears down my face*

My best friend of 10 years and I were in a serious relationship for 3 years until last year when she just dumped me over a text and got engaged to someone else within a week. It took all of last year to steady myself. To anyone out there struggling with heartbreak and grief, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Be patient and compassionate with yourself. Sending lots of love❤️

6 months of grieving the man who came along midlife, who gave me all the validation and cherishing I had craved but thought impossible. He lost feelings. I cry most days.

Cool video, My relationship of 5 years ended a month ago. The love of my life decided to leave me, I really love her so much I can’t stop thinking about her, I’ve tried my very best to get her back in my life, but to no avail, I’m frustrated, I don’t see my life with anyone else. I’ve done my best to get rid of the thoughts of her, but I can’t, I don’t know why I’m saying this here, I really miss her and just can’t stop thinking about her

To you whom is Reading this, breath❤️🤲

Last few days have been the worst days of my life and I felt like the ground should open and swallow me. With alot of pain in heart and no one to talk to, Seeing these comments made me realize am not a alone . thanks

Anger is a bodyguard for pain. Too True.

I recently experienced my first ever heartbreak at 33 years old and I am in such grief and hurt right now. Pain is personal and what I am in now is not easy. Never have I ever felt these real emotions that I am experiencing. Praying and hoping I will be fully healed one day.

Losing my parents, feels like I'm an orphan. Violently assaulted by an ex, all relationships are affected and highly triggered. Therapy did not help.

After my break up I suffered the borderline disorder for over 23 years. With so much anxiety 😢I can’t let the pain go

The one who revived our heart just to leave it broken into a million pieces... It hurts...

never betray anyone.

It's been 8 months since my relationship ended. I do still get their thoughts once in a while but it's so much easier now, I don't wake up and sleep with his thoughts on my mind like I used to before. My mind plays tricks and brings in happy memories of us as well, I appreciate those days for a moment and let it go. I always pray to God everytime I feel sad and time and time again I forgive my ex for hurting me. It helps me to move forward.

As soon as I watched the video, I started crying. Then, as the video progressed, I started feeling calm and hopeful. Thank you so much for giving out the message, Matt.

Loosing a child is the most devastating heartbreak i felt,been a year now and feels like yesterday,still painful until now,and maybe forever,but i still trying to accept til now

My son died a month and half after my husband died. A double grief. It was in 2016. I would like to have had help emotionally and other people also could have help with these emotions. 😢 😅 Thank you

I can never get used to heartbreak. I'm certain now that i am afraid to even just imagine falling in love again.

I can't bear the pain, I'm grieving a lost relationship with someone who's been very dear to me. I never knew it would hurt so much. It literally feels as if my heart has been wrenched out of my chest with no anesthesia. And so many things remind of this person. And there are no hard feelings, we still care for each other but the grief I feel is almost too much to bear. I don't know how to go on.

My husband cheated on me and divorced me and then my mum died for sudden cardiac arrest while I was w her w my kids. And after 7 years my heart is still is broken

I've been dealing with having my heart broken for 6 months now. I had to quit my job due to breaking down all throughout the day but in the end I feel as if I needed to feel this pain to heal from everything thats been inside me for such long time. Every time I feel my emotions coming I just let them go unrestricted and I feel as if I am healing from years of holding my emotions inside.

8 years on, and I still feel the pain... the world is just not as colourful as it used to be

You have to approach every relationship knowing it will end. It’s the natural order of everything.

I am in a position where I am 7 months removed from my break up, and despite being kind to myself, working out, meditating going out with friends and trying to learn a new language, I still find myself thinking about her every hour of the day. I remind myself all the time how lucky I am to have experienced that love, and I have taken ownership of my mistakes and have grown so much since the day I lost a part of my soul. I am young (33), fit and healthy and I don't really struggle to meet women or go on dates etc, I live in a country without war and I have a supportive and loving group of friends and family that have shown me how loved I am since this happened. I'm so proud of myself and the man I have become. the past year I have completely flipped the way I think, and have learned how to guide my negative self pitty thoughts into positive and kind ones, but despite all this, I still think about her every hour of every day. I am often able to catch myself and just say to myself that "I hope she is happy and healthy, and lives a long and full life and that I am thanksful for all the lessons I learnt through her and am now a better man because of my experience", but still 7 months later I will just randomly break into tears from something unrelated to her or a break up and just feel so sad for a good 5-10 minutes. I work out, I meditate and I love myself, but I feel like there will always be part of my sould missing. I don't know if I have gotten to the point where I have let go, as I still think about her all the time, but I never am mad or angry at her. Maybe letting go doesn't mean not thinking about them, maybe it means being able to be okay with the feelings you have and moving forward despite those feelings.

I came here after 1 year getting out from 7 years of relationship whom he cheated on me. Can’t breathe, sleep while crying, wake up because of cry, unending blaming, zombie everyday, cry in the office. After one year, it would get better. I promise you as I wished last year I die rather than feel these pain. But I promise you, just to hang in there. You would get better one day and seeing to live is a blessing. ❤

A hug to everyone commenting. As you can see, you are not alone. Be kind to one another, always. ❤

I had my mini Australian shepherd put to sleep she was 16.5 years old and I've had her since she was 6 weeks old.

My boyfriend of over 5 years just broke up with me. I loved him more than anything and he was the most stable thing in my life. I lived with him and have no one else. I am only 20 so i grew up with him in a way, but it feels like this pain will never pass.

I dont wish this pain on anyone not even my worst enemy

Cool video, My relationship of 5 years ended a month ago. The love of my life decided to move on, I really loved her so much i can’t stop thinking about her and the memories we shared. I’ve tried my very best to get her back in my life, but to no avail. I’m frustrated, and i don’t see my life with anyone else. I’ve done my best to get rid of the thoughts, but i can’t. I don’t know why I’m saying this here, but i really miss her and i wish i could get her back.

Watching this video stirred up old emotions, leaving me longing for my ex and struggling to move forward.

I’ve been through so much and couldn’t afford to have my heart shattered impossibly further. For my own sanity, I’m not trying anymore. No one will get a chance to date me let alone ghost me, again. I’ll pretend romance and relationships don’t exist.

One of the best videos on internet and believe me I am working as a psychologist/ psychotherapist, I have seen tons of videos.

I just wanted to say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart that is now healed because of you. It was exactly one year ago when I broke up with my girlfriend, I was so heartbroken that I tried absolutely everything to change my life from the roots. I was so depressed, I didn't want to get out of bed. But I never gave up on myself, I started watching your videos and every day I worked on my mental health. Now I feel better than ever and I know this is just the beginning I just wanted to say thank you and I know how much comments like this can help others, believe me, I know this from experience. Keep your head up, take care of yourself, never give up, put your life in God's hands and everything will be alright in time.

How many times we hear "Move on", "Get over it" after a heartbreak. Nobody knows that is truly a pain, not just emotionally, but often physically. Noone will tell you after you loose somebody, who died, that it is time to move on... So strong and deep ideas. Thank you!

I am 28 with my first true heartbreak of almost 6 years. It is unbelievable how much I hurt. I have lost what felt like home wherever life went. I’m sure like most I can’t wait to be happy again.

"You know how staying the same feels like" -David. Thank you

I broke down the moment he started talking. I’ve been going through the grief of losing my dad and the grief of losing a person I love! So painful!

My anger is why dint I protect myself better....I had a toxic childhood,it wasn't my fault, I have to forgive myself ,it wasn't my fault, love myself,have compassion for myself and move on and never give permission to let anyone hurt me again if I recognize toxicity.❤

I was dating this girl for 6 months. Never felt any love like this. It was magic, she broke up with me. 16 days ago, came around but after a huge argument she said stop texting me. I never experience a pain like this. Everything reminds me of her.

Grief is love that has nowhere to go.

I divorced out of a toxic, damaging marriage of 21 years over a year ago. A recent breakup from who I thought was the last love I would ever need has hurt more than my divorce ever could. Pain of losing what you have always truly wanted is devastating 💔

I started crying a few minutes in, and kept crying. This video was very cathartic for me, thank you.

A woman was once that voice for me. I hope she stays happy forever and nothing touches her.

‘Yours’ profoundly beautiful, thank you Matthew 💜🙏🏻

This is heartbreaking even to listen, not living through. I hope you'll overcome your storm soon, Matthew, and I wish you all the best!

This is so good! We are all in grief. All the time.

This made me tear up, thank you for another amazing video, Matthew ❤ The world needs your talent.

Thank you, Matt. I really needed to see this. I've been watching so many of your videos on heartbreak and this one was like the cherry on top. It's beautiful to see how you can relate to this grief - something so human. Glad I was already ahead and pre-ordered your book last week!

This couldn’t be posted at a better time. I appreciate this video so much.

I am old enough where I can see things from the end. I have seen these things before and I know what to expect under various situations.. I avoid getting invested until I feel safe. If it falls apart it falls apart. No love lost if it really wasn't there to begin with. I try to discern these things before it goes to far. As a result, people have become very transparent over the years, so I no longer get disappointed.

I’ve been crying every day for the last 3 months… and I’ve known the majority of the time only some of the tears are for that relationship that ended then. I feel like I need to cry for a year at least. It’s daunting.

Thank you Matthew. I have been heartbroken now a few times in my life and every single time that I am, one of the few videos that can give me any semblance of comfort is yours. The soothing and compassionate voice that David had when he was talking with you is the same voice that you had in this video and it was also so kind to hear. I am very excited to watch the interviews and please always continue what you're doing because you are genuinely helping me and so many other people :)

Your video made me cry because I felt intensely everything you were talking about and David too. I become aware that there is a lot of internal work to heal with love and compassion. Become aware and start doing something step by step to lighten our path with these life experiences that come to us for some reason

Thank you Mathew 🙌 It’s not your mind that is broken,it is your heart

Thank you so much for speaking out that truth in such an empethatic opened way, it touched me deeply. I hope a lot of poeple can benefit from your wonderful heartfelt work you are doing!

I always feel thankful to Matthew. I love by how his content is not only change my relationship view, but also my life in general. I thought what I am dealing with everyday is my relationship, but I realize it’s myself. Without seeing your contents, I probably will ruin my life when the bad situation happens. I am so grateful that I can see your work and gained so many positive impact on me.

Matthew, I think this is the most meaningful video you've ever released. Full of insights worth more than gold. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you so much Matthew for you kindness, wisdom and vulnerability. You are an amazing person. We are so grateful to have you.

the "abandoning ourselves" as well as the buffalo parts really hit me! Well done Matthew! Thanks for this amazing video

Now they is light at the end of this tunnel thanks for a new light. And being so honest and authentic.

You can see in Matthew's eyes that this is touching for him too. We can actually feel he relates to our pain, that's hardcore empathy and it's really helpfull. Thanks!

Your emotions pulled at my heart strings 😥 and your vunerability is so admirable. You deserve inner peace and happiness with all you give to the world. 🙏❤

I am so impressed with the scope of your work. It really seems like it's moved so far past simply tips and solutions for relationships (not that those are bad things by any means) and into these really internal, authentic ways of healing and developing the self. It feels universal and it certainly makes me feel less alone. Just thank you.

I've been watching your videos for years, but this is your best video so far. So authentic and real. The Buffalo analogy is just genius.

This is so emotional for me... and the way David talks...

I am going through heart break since last month after dating someone for 2yrs but he betrayed me. The emotions are raw and are on and off. One minute you are feeling OK, the next you are in a v sad place, v tearful and lost. I am v hopeful I will overcome

I cried. This video is a whole blessing. Yes, David’s analogy, his voice, everything. Thank you ❤

Thank you Matt for this beautiful video. It was much needed as I had a one year relationship suddenly end, lost a job and lost my father all in a 5 month span, so I know grief all too well. I get tired of people telling me to just keep going, I think you have to process how you're feeling or you can't heal in a healthy way.

Thank you Matthew for makeing this video❤ i lost my mom and grandpa and my pets and this hits home to me . Please keep making these videos too ☺️

That was really the most moving and profound video I have seen from you so far. I believe that we will experience a lot more profound things from you in the coming years. Very exciting...

I have had a friendship break up recently & this makes sense. It has been make worse by the fact they don’t seem as bothered & i am about it & aren’t missing me. Mainly because it was there choice & we didn’t have a conversation .

Just hearing someone talk to me in a soft sweet voice made me emotional. I cant wait for the release. Thank you.

Thank you Matthew for this video that really touch my heart. I cried a lot while watching it but ended up calm down. I’m so excited for your love life book!

I have been married for 49 yrs to a man i thought I knew. He betrayed me by having an affair for 31 years. We moved away from this person some 1200 miles. Her husband dies and she moves to our state 7 miles from our home. My husband has always denied anything between them. Now he has dementia. I suppressed those feelings all those years. Never did I suspect anything. Perhaps I didn’t want to believe that. I am truly experiencing the grief, anger and heartbreak. I purchased this book because I expect I am going to really need to read all of it.

Wooow Matthew you are the best coach I‘ve ever come across. You are so real and not afraid to show your true self. I‘m super excited for your book! 🤩 Keep up the great work 👏

Oh, my heart needed this today. The comment about his voice…that spoke to me. Reminds me of Kristin Neff when she modeled self compassion, I completely broke down in tears when she modeled how to speak to ourselves kindly just from her tone of voice. I think I will need to take advantage of this deal to heal my soul. Thanks Matthew 🥺❤

Your vulnerability is so powerful, what a brilliant video and conversation, thank you

Thank you for being vulnerable. It helps us connect as human and know that we all are walking on our healing journey. 🙏❤️✨

Video came at a perfect time. Almost made it to 4 years-I grieve the girl I was before we met but it’s ok to grieve and then look forward to better things.

Thank you for your confidence in sharing your sensitive nature and being brave enough to get real with the audience

Thank you Matthew for helping so many people through life itself. You’re an earth angel, I appreciate your channel so much. ❤

.... you also needed a coach, Matthew. Indeed, David sounds like a voice from heaven. Thank you, this video is a gift. ❤

I hope you get through your storm(s) soon, Matthew. Also, I wanna thank you so much for your great and empathic content. I'm going through a divorce right now, after my husband cheated and infected me. Thank you for your beautiful words, they helped me so much. 💝

It makes so much sense, “a change you didn’t want”… thank you

Bless this guy for his work, really touching video, nothing new or groundbreaking ideas, but really wholesome.

I’ve had more grief/loss/heartbreak than hot dinners, and in many different forms. I thought the suicide of my brother had to be the worst of all and that nothing could touch me after that. Wrong! I also thought that I’d be used to it and therefore each experience would be easier. Wrong again! Would I change anything? No, it’s made me who I am, but of course I didn’t want any of it. Thank you 🙏

"Feeling for yourself" Boom! 🙌

My partner and i getting married, in 2 moths and 3 days ago he got cold feet and hasnt spoken to me for 3 days. Saying he want to find himself. I give him space and just wait for the final blow to me happen. It is like being on the sinking titanic waiting for certain pain before the numbness and quiet. I can't express what this feeling is. Although i cling of the hope that my partner see something after evaluating his decision to still be with us and fight it through. He claims himself for me not being the reason behind it but he feels that the change is scary with all the responsibility. Im not here to shame him or make me seem like the person with more pain then him but i really want this nightmare to end. Thanks for this video it helped me to confront this feeling and it feels already a little better.

😭 Thank you Matthew. This is beautiful and amazing! 💖

Love the buffalo story! I’ve learning that the only way to get through the grief and heartbreak is to let myself go through it with love and care!

Heartbreak and grief i feel is the contribution to the start of that concrete jungle inside of us, you never know what you are going to face next. Matt thankyou

I believe I came to you for a reason, I asked God to show me what video I needed to click on to speak to my heart. I can feel my heartbeat, I got to the part of the video where he started mentioning unattended grief. Instantly I started sobbing and I didn’t even know I had anymore tears left. This is a hard part of my life but I believe it was for a better purpose to shape me into character I’m meant to be. Thank you for making this video, it has helped me. 🙏🏽
