Therapist reacts to Left Behind by Slipknot

Iowa is an album that is about as dark as it gets. Such a timeless album that will always keep the same aggression not matter how old it gets.

I was 15 when I lost my dad in 99. Slipknot and system of a down helped me so much to let go of rage.

If you understand Slipknot, you are close to understanding men.
The typical self destructive behaviors that people usually ascribe to men are the outward manifestations of dealing with internal demons.
Be they carnal, mortal or societal demons.
The more we face our demons the more it is carved into our flesh.
The gym obsessed battles his carnal demons with physical weights and his body is an outwards manifestation of the strength of those demons.
The long haired, tattooed man is the outward manifestation of battling his societal demons.
The heavily scarred and coli-flour eared man is battling his mortal demons.
The more you face a demon, the more you take on the appearance of that demon as you must surpass it’s strength to fight it.
The men who face no demons are your typical soft faced skinny boys who look like they have seen no struggles in life.

Could you please do Black Orchid by Blue October? During the peak of my depression that was a song that I used to listen to cope and also torture myself. All though I still struggle with mental health at times, now that song is a symbol of how far I’ve grown.

I found this channel yesterday through the Slipknot vids and I love your vibe and this content!!!
Thank you for what you do!

I’m blown away :exploding_head:
Just left a comment on another video of yours, which I really rarely do here on yt and thought to myself, let’s see this one and I’m done for today, but now I’m here, processing more than I thought I could today. I always somehow looked at “Left behind” from a different angle, relating the feelings it faced me with to a different chapter of my life so this perception shift your views just gave me had me be more honest to myself than ever before and for that I am beyond grateful.
You give me so much hope as I’m seeing you transforming your pain into purpose while I’m on my path of healing from also being left behind.
Thank you from my heart :purple_heart:

I suffer from depression, schizoaffective disorder, anxiety… and as of three years ago developed ptsd when I woke to a crashing sound throughout the house. My father fell through a desk in the living room and I rushed in there in time to watch him slip away before the EMT’s arrived. Natural causes. I didn’t get along with the guy. Barely knew him as a person. But I was left behind more worse for ware. There was anger, grief… and there still is. I hold grudges for all my memories and never learned how to let go. I can still see it happen constantly. #HeartSupport

I was framed for suicide after a close friend of mine who has struggled with me being scrutinized had gone to Madrid, and my life started falling apart.

Being left behind is a confusing and daunting feeling whatever that loss is. For me this has been happening since my late 20’s to present day, from noticing people who you’ve knocked around with or known moving on with their lives, cutting those out from yours because they’ve wronged you or they’re toxic people and lost people through death.
It does feel as though you’re in limbo, trying to figure out why you’re left behind to process it all and a being in that state of loss trying to find a way out and move forward.

When I lost my brother to suicide, bands like Testament (Down for Life) and Pantera (Hollow) helped me out a lot. It gave my feelings a channel to flow through whenever I was alone. Being able to cry and be angry when I was alone was what allowed me to keep going even though I was knocking on the same doors that led me to having those feelings.
