+FqChic My IG is x_nicsantiaga <3 .. & I DEFINITELY plan to come back to youtube. Im just taking time to get my mind right. thanks so much for watching, doll. I promise not to disappoint.
I was 15 when I watched your video. I was suffering from severe depression
and I thought I was going nowhere. But once I saw this i was so inspired. I
made my box and everytime I saw it I thought about what you said. I am now
almost fully recovered thanks to this video that inspired me to to create
my life into what I wanted it to be and to take control. Thank you so much.
I can't tell you how much you've helped me
+Sadie Reid This is amazing, & I am so very proud of you. Keep pushing for progression, beautiful. & Thank you so much for your support. This literally means everything to me.
Seems like you have good info but one thing is missing... JESUS! He is the
only healer. He is the only one that can heal the hurt. Love GOD, Love
YOURSELF & Love OTHERS. Self hate is deep & dangerous. Only The Lord
understands. Trying to heal oneself in your own strength can lead to a
false security that can frustrate you & eventually make you worse.
Everyone has their own beliefs and mindset.Your mindset is different compared to one who isn't has religious.Yes God is the healer of all things.He is the universe in itself and his in all things just as much as he is in us. I feel trying to help yourself is a way of God helping you as well.However you pray or are spiritual is up to you.Self love,Self help, gaining a stronger mindset is the God in you,That's how I see it and I Hope your able to understand my point.
omg thank you so much for watching & for all of your support! I am BEYOND proud of you, babygirl, continue to progress & blossom into the beautiful woman that you're already becoming, I love you more. ღ

depression is not an easy feeling to show and it's different from people to
people. How they feel about it, how they demonstrate it or not. How other
people see it. So it's not easy show it completely. But I think you caught
that part right, the sadness/ lost feeling.
aww thank you so much. I always love your comments and yes I love including
firefly in almost every multifandom I make. :) I agree. The concept behind
the contest is so unique. I hope I make it through so I get the chance to
vid the other stages as well. :)
Oh my dear god. All the feels! Wow... I can't :') This is really beautiful
and breathtaking, I especially loved the beginning with the scenes from
Sherlock
I LuV the idea of vidding the stages of grief..! Did you make up the text
part on your own.? Really KooL..!! You just had to put in some Firefly
...can't help yourself, hmmm..?? lol Look forward to seeing the next four
stages..!! :)
Beautiful. I has to be hard showing something so very different from person
to person. The text really got to me and the scenes and coloring you chose
worked wonderfully. Great job :)
aww thank you. It was. Since each of them show it slightly different, but
once I came across that quote, I knew I had to include it since it kind of
tied them all together. :)
I think it worked marvelously without voiceovers because you used such
expressive scenes and the colourings conveyed so well the timeline of
emotions. Good luck! :)
WOW *__* It's really hard to show this feeling...but you did it perfectly!
really really well done! You're amazing editor! Good luck in the contest! =)

Because This is Something I Need To Say | Dealing with a Loss + Life
Suicide is real. Depression is real. Mental Illness is real and it affects me and my family. This is something I want to share even though the topic is an extremely ...
Sorry to hear about your dad. I lost my dad to suicide in 2004. Next week
Jan 1st will be 12yrs & I miss him everyday & feel the same way you do. I
was 14 when he died and now I feel like I need him now more than before.
You're not alone and I know we do not know each other but if you every come
to the point that you feel like no one wants to hear you vent feel free to
reach me. This is not easy to deal with at all & I don't mind helping if I
can. Stay positive...*PEACE, LOVE & HAPPINESS*
Omg. Kia. I am so sorry for your loss baby girl. :'(. You are a strong
and sweet, person! You are definitely an inspiration. And I knew that from
the moment I met you at SU. Keep your head up and I believe A LOT were
touched in many different ways by this video, including me. I just wanted
to encourage you, and let you know that I have been there and it is NOT
pretty. it is not peaches and cream. & sometimes I just don't understand.
BUT what I do KNOW, is that God is always there to comfort, listen and to
give us peace. He bottles up every tear. And I know that I can't make it on
my own strength. at all. Be strong Kia! You will be in my prayers. :) "I
call on the LORD in my distress and He answers me" - Psalm 120:1
You know I'm totally here for this video! I had no idea about the loss of
your father and I send my most sincerest of condolences to you and your
family. I don't believe it is a coincidence that you saw my video before
making your own. I like to think that God used me to help you be courageous
enough to share this because it's something that's super important to talk
about. This video WILL and already has touched many of us. It's important
that we share our testimonies, including the deepest of downfalls. I'm
super proud of you for this transparency!
Thank you De'Quana! I really appreciate the love! My mother was pressing me to finally upload this because I was actually holding onto it for a little too long. It's important for people to know it's not easy making these kinds of things and they do require a lot of time. In any event, I'm truly glad you got to see this!
Wow, this video was so powerful Kia and I sincerely mean it. The simple
fact that you not only isolated yourself but didn't choose to come back
until you healed yourself from within by accepting things that would only
move you forward shows just how dedicated you are towards your overall well
being and moreover the overall well being of your friends. I'm terribly
sorry to hear about your father's passing but that dream you had was simply
amazing and truly left things on a tremendous note. You spoke about how
strong and creative your father was and yet all of his strength and
creativity is still living through you to this very day. :) In regards to
depression, I feel you 110% just as you mentioned how people can find
things to do to take their minds off of it I too developed the same habits
over time. I write, quote, listen to music and even make videos (which I'm
still trying to master lol :P ) in my freetime. I enjoy seeing others happy
because it helps take away the unhappiness and dullness that can be filled
within my life at times. It's one of these many reasons why I gained
interest in writing my own book where I can hopefully go into so many
genres and themes that I barely talk to people about and show them how we
all can connect with one another on so many things. But just as you said,
we're all human and we all go through losses and gains in our lives to help
us notice that these imperfections are simply perfections when you look
further into things.
Other than that, I'm so glad to see the return of Queen Kia to her
You-Tube!!!!!!!! Keep the vids coming and as always continue to do the
impossible and keep moving forward. A lot of people are going to find
strength in this video. (I know I have) :) God bless you and your
astonishing family and long live your tremendous Dad whose character has
affected us all here today for the greater good within our lives. I didn't
know him, but it's a no brainer to notice how much of an impactful person
he was to you and so many others! Keep the faith and love alive Queen! Much
love!!! :D
I lost my dad two years ago also. He had cancer. I miss him dearly. I
basically had a mental breakdown last year because I was so depressed and
had to go to the e.r. I'm slowly getting my mind together but its a daily
fight. Thanks for sharing your story. I know we can both make it. We have
to keep living and take it one day at a time.
Wow Kia. First, I send my condolences go out to you and your family.
Second, I commend you on your strength throughout these couple of years and
up to now in making this video. When I met you I never would have guessed
what you were experiencing because you're presence would bring so much
light. I respect your courage towards putting out your story, especially
when it is geared to help people. Thank you!!❤️
+Montria Martin Thank you Montria! It always helps to be around awesome-sauce type people you know? Lol thank you for your kind words and continue to push this semester! Home stretch girl!!
Kia, first of all I want to say I'm so sorry for your loss. I knew you had
lost your dad while we were in school but I never knew the reason why. And
as someone whose family is also affected by mental illness and suicidal
tendencies, I want to thank you for making this video because you're right,
we never know what another person may be going through. You are such an
amazing, strong, genuine person and I look forward to seeing where
Hairitage93 takes you!
I'm a white-passing POC myself. I'm Anatolian Greek. That's essentially 1/2
way between Greek and Turkish. (This is not my real name. Google would not
let me use my real name, believe it or not.) I'm also half white. I call
this Mr. Spock Syndrome. Essentially neither side of your family accepts
you as "pure" enough that they really embrace you as one of their own. I
share your DNA, how the hell are you going to do that? I think a lot of us
experience something like this.
I don't like the word "POC". Just call me a human or mixed race, but not a
"POC". That word just…unsettles me, and makes me think of the olden days
when they would use "person of colour" to describe someone who isn't white.
I'm mixed race (Hispanic and European), and I can pass for white. I don't
consider myself having any privileges just for that. I haven't really
encountered much racism growing up, but I am aware about social justice.
+Maria Marquez Do you mean Hispanic as in Meztizo, or are you treating Hispanic as an actual racial classification? Sorry, just want to clarify. This whole "Hispanics are/are not a race" is confusing.
My mom is mostly white, but my dad is a mix of white with a slice of native
american, a pinch of african and I don't know what else. Thing is, I think
most of my ancestors are white, but I don't look white, so I have no idea
how to call myself.
+Kanon Cardinal Yeah, I know. The problem is, I've asked some people if white people can suffer from racism/shadism, and most of them said no. I know I do not pass as white, although genetically I am white, so... ? I don't know.
You can be white and not look like the stereotypical white person. Do you have italian in you? because I've seen a lot of dark italians. I've also seen a lot of french people who look very middle eastern. people come in all colours.
I'm 25% Spanish 25% Hispanic 1/16th Creek Indian. I look like any other
white dude and I just don't really think about it. I got picked on for
being white in New Mexico at school for being white. I have a Spanish last
name.
Spanish as in mexican/south american or spanish as in just spanish? Because Spanish people are white. Hispanics can be white. and 1/16th aboriginal doesn't count.
I'm a fair-skinned, blue-eyed Middle Eastern/European mix. I ran into
trouble when applying for a security clearance 7 years ago because my mom's
Islamic-sounding name on my birth certificate. It was annoying, but frankly
it was also understandable (and I ended up getting the clearance after
jumping through several loops.) The most offensively racist thing I ever
heard was when I was having a debate with a white liberal feminist on the
issue of racial profiling. When she started lecturing me on white
privilege, I pointed out that I'm actually half Turkish and thus a PoC. At
first she told me I wrong (!?) and then I showed her a copy of my birth
certificate. Rather than apologizing for her presumption, she dismissed it
by saying "well, you look white so you're white." Unbelievable.
