12916214, good interview. i hope he gets help for his mental illness(es)

he's clearly battling depression (already tispy early in the morning, casually mentioning suicide, using "depression" and "cry for help" multiple times throughout the interview) but i feel like maybe he's unable/unwilling to recognize it as something like major depressive disorder versus not being satisfied with where he is in life. or maybe he's expressed his depression/anxiety to the people around him but they don't care and/or aren't equipped to deal with mental illness so he's adapted a "it's not depression, it's something else" attitude. he's mentioned having anxiety in other interviews, on the breakfast club in fact, and still envy makes fun of him for not participating in interviews in this video. depression and anxiety are hard enough as it is. i can't imagine how tough it must be for him having to do press tours with people that are unsympathetic to his illnesses
