Update

hey bro, if ya need friend that isn't tryna take anything from you, hit me up anytime. sorry you deal with this too. big love.

Wish you well brother!

You have my support. God Bless

Yo just checking in! Hope you're doing well today. Sucks to hear you also struggle with it, but cool of you to share. Thanks for doing so!

Kopf hoch!

bro, I would like to suggest checking out a United Pentecostal Church! I had bad depression and suicidal thoughts quite often. I visited this UPCI church and the second time I went I prayed and received the baptism of the Holy Ghost and spoke in tongues! It was amazing! I have never felt depression like I used to experience ever again and It's been 25 years.

Hang in there 💪🏾

you got this my friend

Be proud of what you've accomplished. Don't let depression get the better of you. Good luck, and keep making samples, music, and sounds. You inspire so many people with your talent, brother. I'm one of those people. You have my support! Take care, everything will be okay!

Question

Thoughts with you. Be well. 🙏🏼

don't push yourself we love you!!!

Do what's best for you, either way you are loved and respected

We <3 you

Time is a powerful thing. You are not alone. Don’t let your inner thoughts win because most of it is just made up of negatives that aren’t true. Go relax and see the people you love and enjoy hobbies you like outside of music 😊 no one is going anywhere. Look after yourself. all the best

We love and support u thru this whole thing! Keep doing ur thing man!

We love you Val, I hope the therapy helps, I know CBT is great but whatever help you're getting I hope it helps! Hoping you kick depressions butt by redlining that mf into oblivion! :)

ay Val try lamictal i tried a bunch of SSRI's and hated them but lamictal/lamotrigine is chill af and doesnt make me feel flat

Oh, and everyone.. please watch that video at your own risk. And listen to every word. Subtitles on. And all the way until the end. But seriously. Might change the entirety of how you look at life and the universe, which will reflect how you view yourself as well. Weeeeeiner-hoooole

So, I had a long comment about consciousness, but I feel like this video will have an impact greater than my comment.. WARNING: if video is ended by user, more damage is possible.. So if you commit to the video, pay close attention and watch it in its entirety. My life changed after watching this video. Anyone, hmu if you want to discuss the mapping of consciousness, btw.. Happy vibes✌️ https://youtu.be/4Tm6Z1y3h94?si=pHnKtOFz43p9RvfP P.s., when I really tried to understand consciousness and really considered evolution and its role in consciousness is when I started to lose that constant weight of “I’m not worth it” lingering like a wetted blanket weighing down your ‘consciousness’ I’ll be waiting… (if anyone wants to pop in and share relatable thoughts since everyone can share.. I’m not correct just want to share what I have … mapped out?)

hey dude from someone who has terrible mental health (i have schizophrenia), I just want to say that self care is paramount! Daily sunlight, exercise, a good diet, drinking enough water, taking meds, etc go a reaaally long way. Wishing you good luck buddy! heal up!

Nimm dir die Zeit die du brauchst, mental health ist schon echt wichtig. Hoffe dein neuer Therapeut kann dir gut helfen.

damn that f*ckin sucks bro. that new tune with Eliminate kicks so much ass though

wishing you the best man! I hope you're doing alright

I standby the people in the comments saying avoid meds. Ik it can be difficult when you don't get off them properly, and we don't know your full story or situation But I think we just want you to be healthy and feeling your best. Honestly, you've given us so much and you prob put way too much pressure on yourself to get stuff out. It's a double edge sword of course because you're making amazing music but prob burning yourself out. I really do hope you know you can make lifestyle changes that will help you avoid meds and are pretty life changing. From my perspective a lot of my random anxiety went away after I removed certain foods from my diet as well. It's usually multiple changes that help mental health as a whole. I wish I could talk to you more about what helped me.

this is unacceptable

Remember, man - you're unspeakably valuable and beloved by people the world over. You're one of my favorite and most inspirational artists ever, and even though you don't know me, I'm a real person whose words carry weight. We love you, and we all want to see you live your best life.

Bro, I feel your pain. I’ve battled treatment resistant depression and complex PTSD. I’ve now got some pesky brain disorders thrown in the mix which are not doing me any favours. Oh yeah, this has been going on since the late seventies, yep I’m really that old. All I can say is grab each light moment you can and make the most of it. Sometimes they lady longer than you expect, sometimes they don’t but deal with that when it happens. Fuck all the doubters, stay safe and get back on it when you feel you need to, not before. Bless!

Try Lamotragine

Honestly bro you just need some inspiration your music and your visual artist are changing the game the rest of us artist vj and dj alike keep your head up bro 🙏🏽✌🏽😁

Feel that.

I hope you feel better soon, you're my favorite artist

I feel you. Stay stronk man

Keep going,stay healty,read good books,some good food,Gym,films and family. You gonna feel Better.

<33333

Make sure to ALWAYS take care of you, or else you won't be able to do you <3

Who you are is intrinsically Good!!!

Brother you ARE LOVED!

You don't owe anyone anything. You're giving so much to the community. Free education. Motivation. Inspiration. And the most amazing music ever. Please just take care of yourself. No pressure. No rush. No everything. Hope you get better soon. Better days ahead 100% for sure. Sending love. <3

i can relate, feel better man! You got this!

Please take care of yourself, first and foremost. You deserve that much and more. Much love to you 🫡

Feel better soon! Much love to such an inspirational person 💗

Take your time, Val - health always comes first! Depression is such a terrible state to be in, hope it gets better soon ❤️

kick depression's butt instead

hope you get better soon, love ya <3

Forget everything else and just take care of you. Have some times with your friends and your family, that probably will be the best therapy.

Psilocybin Treatment for Depression. Get well homie!

Really hope you get better. Meds are BS. Try natural things such as 5 HTP, L Tryptophane and stop computers and social media. Enjoy Silence and Nature my friend.

Only Jesus can help you with that. Meds only sedate you for little while. Until you need more meds...

I’m a music producer from China and also a big fan of your work. I’ve been through bipolar disorder myself, so I get how tough it can be. Just wanted to say you’re not alone — your music has helped me a lot, and I’m rooting for you the same way. Take your time, focus on your health first. We’ll be here. 🙏

You have been prolific with your releases over the years so you more than deserve some time to yourself. Hang in there dude.

Hope you feel the love and get a breakthrough with the feels, we fucking love you dude. All the best! ❤️

SENDING MY LOVE. I HOPE YOU CAN FEEL IT

stay strong mud! luf ya!

Been there so many times in my life too man. Sending you good vibes! You continue to inspire me ❤️🙏🏽

take your time, we love you and we'll still be here whenever you feel recharged :-) 🫶

same here. We'll power through as always

Stay strong bro, you can bet that its a temporary situation. Wishing all the best from Brazil!

Proud of you for being aware of your mental state and separating that from yourself. it shows a lot of introspection and I know that’s not easy to be open about. Much love

We love you! Hope you feel better soon

I don’t know what is going on in your life, but I fully sympathize with you. Take your time until you feel better. We’re not going anywhere.

When I’m down my secret is taking it out on some weights. I set goals for myself in the gym and when I achieve them it’s a triumph like no other. I have another goal rn tho and it’s to make it to EDCO. Excited to see you at EDCO. Been listening to you since 2013 and have only now been able to afford to see you live. My gf is supposed to come but JUST got fired from her job, so that’ll be fun to figure out. DOUBLR WHAMMY TIME she also can’t come live with me for the internship I just got 🥳. She’s honestly the best thing to ever happen to me, and so is this internship but I guess lightning doesn’t strike twice. Life can be difficult just remember you’ve got support if you need it bro. Keep the grind up and the bass lowww😎🫨✌️. Ps. In your intro with VJ neurite you always say “she will be in control of what you see, while I will be in control of what you hear” but if you added the line “and we will be in control of what you feel” that shit would be raww, idk where else to put that where you’d see it so I felt like now was my chance,

Hard to say anything helpful without context but you've got this. It will pass.

Get moringa

Stop alcohol consumption it saved my life

Thank you for all you do, take time to get better. We all have plenty to chew on.

No stress buddy. Thank you for everything you do!

Please take your time and be careful. Understand that you are loved.

We love you, Val 💛 We’re with you no matter what.

Try moving your body more before meds. Running and Muay Thai has changed my life. If you can’t Muay Thai there’s Ju-Jitsu. Also, lock in your nutrition.

You’re not alone I know personally how crippling it can be and it saddens me to hear this but just know that it’s ok to feel down in such a crazy world. Take your time 🫶

As someone who has struggled with depression since I was 9 years old, you are more than forgiven in every single respect. Depression is so devastating and I hope that you and your new therapist learn to navigate that beast for all it's worth. It took me a long while, but I eventually did. :3

I understand all to well. Your stronger than you think.

Love you man, take it easy and rest up. We’ll all still be here when you get back 🤜🤛

just get a 5pc chicken nuggets that should do :)

YNWA Val

take all the time you need man, i hope those resources will be helpful <3

Take your time, we will be here when you return

Ohhh I did not know! I hope the interview wasn’t too stressful 🥺 get well soon!!! 🙏 <3

Any chance you have tried nootropics?

I’m just a stranger on the internet but if it’s any consolation, I want you to know you really made my day with the new song with Eliminate! I hope you get better soon man! ❤️‍🩹

please, take your time we aren't going anywhere

Love ya my dude! Take all the time you need to take care of yourself!

As someone who is going through the end of an 8 year marriage from my early twenties, your set at Foam Wonderland last weekend brought me the most joy I had in years. I hope you find what you need man; people love your art but they also love you too!

Stay strong! Love everything you’ve done for the music scene and for all us producer newbs! Thank you x1000000000☺️

Thank you all for the support that really means a lot <3

i hope you feel better man all the love 🩷🩷

Love you so dang much, you can kick depression's butt!!!!! We all have your back ♥️♥️♥️♥️

Take care of yourself Val🥺 we love you 🫶

Hang in there Val! Watch some Hellsing anime! Whatever is happening to you personally you got this! The only way out is through and meditation helps! You’re a badass mutha fucka and don’t forget that!

We love you Val🫶 take all the time you need

Ich höre deine Sachen schon seit 2014. Du bist meine Inspiration, und hast meine komplette Kindheit geprägt. Schicke dir ganz viel Liebe und ganz viel Stärke.

You've brought a lot of happiness and inspiration to a lot of people over the years. Your life has meaning, and you deserve to feel joy. Don't let life take that from you.

Hang in there maestro - we will be waiting

Get well soon Val, ur an inspiration for us <3

Look into metabolic psychiatry, it massively improved my mental health more than any medication could

Hope you'll be well soon, take your time boss, make sure you're well before going on tour/doing stuff, and just so you know, you're always surrounded by people who support you in every way possible. Get well soon, boss!

Take care of yourself first, that’s always number 1 priority ❤️

Get well soon. Try the easy things exercise, vitamins minerals and fluids. Water. Sleep

I've been through that brother, I know how it feels.. it is probably pretty common for musicians. you are awesome dude, just keep moving. one day at a time.

Hope you feel better soon mate.

managed to overcome a melancholic depression in the end without medication. This thing hits hard—derealization, depersonalization. But things are reversible with the right tools. Believe in yourself, you are light

Bro mir geht es genau so, suche immer mehr Ablenkung durch Musik auch wenn mich produzieren ebenfalls kaputt macht. Habe dir sogar geschrieben auf insta weil ich schulisch nicht mehr weiter weiß 🙃

Been there 💜, be kind to yourself! Your new song is wicked cool and I hope you feel better soon!

Hey man, I've never commented but your drums and videos helped me create music that helped me through periods of my depression. Sending love from LA. I am still struggling too, we will get through it!

You are an amazing human being and you are my mentor, my best friend and the one I look up to every single day - I'm sure you're going to get out of it soon and see the path of your life more clearly! Lots of love man! Thank you for everything you do and NEVER GIVE UP!!!!!!!! 🥽

We all love you so much <3 Wishing you better days ahead

keep your head up king 👑 you’re an inspiration to all of us in here! you have so much more people rooting for you than you realize. to be vulnerable with your fan base like this means more than you know to us! we appreciate all that you do and hope you feel better soon. take your time

A lot of people look up to you. Just as important, look at these comments. It isn’t a way of filling your ego. It’s living PROOF that people care for you and love you. I’m offering to help if you need anyone. I just want to make sure your not overlooked. ❤️ pass auf dich auf

I empathize with this a lot. Sending all the love and good vibes your way. We'll be here, take your time!

This will pass, and you’ll rise back to your best again. We’re all here with you, supporting you 🫡

Thank you for being so amazing

Something that might help if you haven’t looked into it before is making sure you are getting enough dreams at night. There is a strong correlation between depression and dream deprivation. If you’re on sleep meds some of those knock you out too much and stop you from dreaming. Congrats on the track with Eliminate, it’s fantastic!

You are not alone! 🫶🏻

Hope that you will get on well soon! We love you man, I appreciate all you've done. You are really an excelent example to follow

Come on, get treated! We are all with you❤❤❤

We love you Val, you’re the best, hope you fell well soon!!🫶🏼🫶🏼

I'm Wishing you the best ❤️

Taking care of this stuff's super important, take all the time you need!! (Also happy release day on the Eliminate collab!! :D)

Empathizing with the effort that takes. Glad you found a something new to help out. Take care, we’ll be here!

You’re gonna beat this depression bs you’re not alone
