All right, this one got me. I've found so much strength in rewatching so much of his work and genuinely celebrating this beautiful souls life, but now I'm crying.
God dammit if you need help or you need to speak to even a stranger then please do it. Shit can get pretty sad out here and nobody is invincible
Sorry for yelling I'M BEING POSITIVE
Brody was very vocal about his struggles to anyone that would listen..
Your yelling has triggered my anxiety…now I gotta go smoke a blunt.
Rest in peace my man. You're definitely in a better place than this fuckin one. You will always be loved, at least from my side. #enjoyit #staywithme #Ballit #Givemethatlaugh 😢😢😢
You didn't take care man 😢
Thanks for one final positive push Brody.
Sad
Rich Evans it is.
@Upside Down Creative Media He needed friends…
😔 RIP Brody
Aww his eyes are so sad…
even when people "notice" the signs….NOBODY DOES FUCK ALL…
Who the fuck are you?
No regret. No sorrow.
A lot of us know how lonely you can be in your own head Brody. All the sets we do & applause isn't enough. Miss you. 1 of a very kind soul.
you had to put the sad music in there you bastard
Yea, I felt like the Benny Hill theme song wouldn't really be appropriate for this.
❤️
Thank you brody
I just found out about him when Bill Burr mentioned he had died on his podcast. I looked him up and really fell in love with him as a person and his humour. I really hope he has found some peace. Love you Brody!
crazy, didn't know he died on Bill's podcast
Well put together. Such a loss.
Damn…that's sad.
Rip brody
Be kind people
YOU GOT IT!!!! RIP Brody
How about a Steps With Steve 5k run? Proceeds go to his family and a research foundation for depression.
Sadly liberalism kills.
@Bob Bowie Yes, he did. His mother and his sister Stephanie. Not to mention countless friends and fans who consider him family.
Research foundation. Ha dont lie to yourself
@Shannon Brody was his mom's family. Brody had a mother and sister.
No kids, no family
@Bert Lee No shit, that's what I said
This is so sad. Rest in peace.
I’m finally accomplishing a life goal of doing an open mic on Wednesday bc of Steven Brody Stevens. Bc how I can relate and how a lot of others can relate to that daily darkness that takes all we have to get through only to realize again that we can’t go through this life alone. I have felt so alone for weeks and months so much that I’ve accepted it now that it is just who I am. You are still giving that positive push, Brody. And just like all of your fans, you’re vulnerability that you turned into magic is going to inspire us and others forever.
Good luck. I’m pissed about Brody!
If no one laughs!!! That right there is worth doing. Your first time doing standup you should do everything you can so they dont laugh, 😂
Have fun with it! Life is way to short and precious to waste on fear! Embrace that nervous poop before you go on! Good luck bro
So, how was it?!
It was fun but I had to leave right after. Kinda got tunnel vision lol. I played out in my mind how I would tell my jokes and how I’d use my CADENCE and pace myself. For years I practiced in a mirror and recorded myself but I dunno how I sounded. Haha. I did make sure to mention why I finally did it and people need to remember Brody for being so brave and open about the reality he was experiencing. We had so much in common from college baseball and always wanting to stretch and try to get rid of the tension that builds up. I miss him so much and not in a weird stalker way lol. I just always wanted to hug him. Thanks for so many nice comments. I hope everyone who mentioned wanting to do it or try anything for the first time gets to a place mentally and emotionally where they can just take a step toward it. Just one step. I can’t come back to this particular video anymore bc it makes me really fucking sad and now I’m wiping away tears. It’s just so tragic that we get to places where we feel so alone and we realize it’s unhealthy and we realize we’re the ones with the key to free ourselves but we don’t know how to use the key to open the lock. It’s not fair that he is gone and that any of our loved ones are gone bc they got exhausted trying to fit the key into the lock. It’s just not fair.
818 til i die
make it tomorrow
it's the anti-depressants that probably pushed him over the edge they cause suicidal ideation when you start on them, ween off them and or switch to a new one
Smoke weed
Some feelings can't be changed.
When U lose the one you love, no drug will cure the hurt.
It's in the best interest of GP doctors to prescribe that shit or any type of "depression".
Once they get you, they have lifelong customer.
They're all in business together.

💯
Stay away from pharmaceuticals they are pure poison. Rip Brody, keep those beautiful angels laughing.
I’m gunna miss you Brody 🙁 r.i.p
Rest In Peace Steven Brody
Positive Energy!!!
the fucked up part is looking at him being loved by every other great comedian, and still thats not even close to enough. wtf am i supposed to look forward to? if that didnt help him, im fucked. are we supposed to live knowing that we will be miserable all the way through this life shit? at least he had the balls, i dont even know if i have that lol. fml.
This was pretty obvious. Where were all his "friends" this doesn't take a genius to figure out
😢😢😢
RIP Brody! I didn’t know his comedy well until he passed away but over the past few days I’ve realized that I am EXACTLY like him. From the baseball career to the inability to connect with a significant other to the 10% gay thing to his constant battle with depression. His life rings so true with my life and I’ve learned a lot about myself these past few days by just watching his videos.
its really murder by prescription drugs
@the artist formally known as craig lastname what about uncle depressants ?
@Pat Stay Sucka Free Boss That might be funny if i said aunty.
@the artist formally known as craig lastname Were both different walks of life
@Pat Stay Sucka Free Boss Are you rich?
@Pat Stay Sucka Free Boss that's exactly what he was saying, though
💔
In the words of Doug Stanhope :"sometimes life just isn't for everybody ." .Be missing you Steven
That doesn't fit with this one. He was someone who obviously had mental issues who verbally expressed every inch of his problems (which is shocking no one picked up on it and talked to him). Doesn't take an FBI agent to read his "audio language" for a lack of a better term. You know, "body language". It's extremely disappointing that during his final periscope set he did he's battling trolls/bullying in his comment section. A man who has expressed every thought that pops in his head and calls it a "monologue" non of it is. "It's like he doesn't even have a set in mind he just goes up there" He's literally saying what's going on with him, and when he saying certain phrases it's a reaction that works in his setting with the audience that also benefits him with positive thoughts. In my opinion I would put my chips on 80% of him proceeding with his actions was brought upon by being trolled/bullied, and the rest on the medication and personal issues. You can tell he was a fragile, sensitive, kind, loving human being.
pls don't quote Stanhope..bro is drinking himself to death..a bootleg Michael Keaton..he's terrible.
Fuck that. Words from the grateful dead, "keep truckin"
@III he's actually one of the most intelligent people out there. He doesn't get air time because he's real. Thinks critically for himself
Doug cantStanhope?
Sorry. The mind goes there.
How did we lose him.
Rip
When you add the music its like damn.. lol
I know. I kinda regret scoring it because it was already pretty impactful without out it. Bad habit as a video editor I guess
Honestly we all show some signs now and then.
Damn this sucks
This is tough….you the man Brody!
Fuck that’s hard to watch. RIP
So sad poor guy RIP
Everybody on that scope was telling him everything he was feeling was completely normal. If I'd seen the scope I would have told him to talk to a doctor immediately. Crying and being in bed all day is not normal. Isolation is terrible for someone recovering from bipolar episodes. The changing or restarting of meds is dangerous for people in his fragile condition. They have a term called 'brittle diabetics,' and it should exist for bipolar folks as well, not to mention he was on the spectrum. Too much going on with him not to be monitored by professionals or experienced people, and it speaks volumes about who prescribed him the meds and didnt take into consideration the dangers he faced in his transitioning. A lot going on and in the end it just seems he was tired of fighting the horrible symptoms of the illness. In the wake of his death is the hope that people will be more informed about bipolar disorder because it's so misunderstood in addition to the fragility in changing meds. The comedy world will deeply miss this guy. Live your life folks and #enjoyit #RIPSBS #positivepush
I cry and sit in a bed all day. I've done this the majority of my life. I have no friends nobody all I ever wanted was love and the last two years of my life with some of the best met the girl of my dreams. took me so long to finally get with her and spent the last two months of last year with her the best two months of my only for her to just cast me away out of the blue no warning shut me out exiled me. I haven't had the most luck in life with this but when you meet someone that makes you feel complete and you have two great years knowing them into great months together personal and then it just goes away I've had depression all my life. I can't believe I'm still alive I have b we're fought and I have fought. what just happened to I know I'll never be okay so honestly I'm just waiting for that day to come hoping Mercy come soon I don't want to do it myself but I'm so lonely I don't know if I can keep going and what happened with him is so sad
@Chris Strickland you need to learn to love yourself which is impossible if you're sitting in bed and crying all day. Maybe you're comfortable with that but Steven was not. Live your life and #enjoyit . #pushandbelieve and become the best you that you can. Find comfort and love with yourself. Hope you feel better as time goes on.
Where did you hear he was on the spectrum? He had bipolar disorder and OCD but he really didn't seem to be on the spectrum.
@Shannon He said it himself many times on periscope & it's evident in his routines. My son is on the spectrum & that savant knowledge of locations among other quirks should tell you something. OCD links right into that as well.
I think Brody was misunderstood especially by his peers. Its hard when everyone thinks you're joking or "putting on an act" and all you really want them to do is hear and ask if you're okay. I can relate to that and Imagine that's how Brody felt, people ask how you're doing but they're doing it BC that's what we are supposed to say. I feel for him I dealt with that with my "friends" and I also imagine its even worse with the Hollywood/L.A. lifestyle.
he said he had '' us guys '' to bounce the deppresion off..that wasent enough..r.i.p Brody,dddent know you as such but i think this one hits hard because he was quite open about it and just a group naturally brings eachother togeather…and now hes gone..and left some of i suspect wondering how much daily we feel the same way….life stings at times.
Nice one, glad to see it getting some traction
Thanks. Unfortunately it’s not the work I want to be known for, but this guy was a big influence to my work so I had to make something to commemorate him.
You got it…I'll see you around Brody…818
This makes me so sad. It feels so strange to know I used to say those exact words Brody said in this video, about having friends and family that love you and you can still feel loneliness.
It's such a terrible place to be in.
Let me actually address the question.As someone who does not have any social media accounts and lives alone and is going through some shit,I can honestly say there were definitely warning signs in what he was saying.I’m not sure if he cut himself off and just used social media as his only outlet but if he did in any way that’s a huge mistake.People need to get back to physical interaction,not social “dysfunction”.Mental health is a problem but has to stop being taboo.We all have some issues that we all deal with.I hope his friends were there for him trying to help at least.It’s obvious to me he needed help. RIP Brody.✌️
If anyone deserved a big break into "show business," it was Brody. He would still be alive right now if he got it. That's all he really wanted. Man that dude cracked me up! We will push and believe and never forget Brody! Miss you….
My heart will forever be heavy
I just wish someone could have hugged him and told him how loved he was
Virtue signaling! Virtue signaling! Virtue signaling!
He was very open about his mental issues
🙁
Brody's big sigh and stare at the end broke my heart. Wish u were here Brody…..
Fucking mental illness, man. People who dont know, truly dont know. To try so hard to be positive and still….
I so get it. RIP, brody
Breaks my heart that someone so amazing has gone
RIP Steven BRODY Stevens.
I love you Brody.. I miss you man
I think it's very respectful to investigate, and not forget Brody
Part of the reason I made this was because I related with him — I saw myself in him. By investigating, I feel like I might discover something about myself.
he was very sad but he did not reflect that in public and showed love and positivity…I think that’s great
There's no way to tell when someone has had depression long enough. You learn to dance on the line.
Could it be outside the realm of possibility he may have been gay? Rogan mention on his podcast that he never knew him to have a special someone or significant other in his life. Not trying to muck up his name or be an asshole just genuinely wondered..
I’ve had the same thoughts. But I think that some people are just really sad and fail to see their own greatness.
Rip brody i feel your pain brother I know whats its like to feel like that everyday even when you have friends and family that support you. Its a neverending battle that will win eventually. Hope you have found peace
when you know a bunch of people love you and want you around but you still JUST CAN'T FEEL JOY or anything like it even though you know you're supposed to so you're left with just an unbearable guilt that you don't have a solution for so you drink, you smoke, you fuck, you laugh, you cry, you "stay positive." i don't know if that's what Brody experienced but if it is I'm sorry you had to go through that, you are one of the greats
So lucky nothing serious happened to me when I stopped taking zoloft cold Turkey
I was ignorant to the fact that your supposed to slowly stop taking antidepressants
this is a direct result of the all-too cunty internet age, all these bleeding heart women in the comments with their cheesy sympathy but not one would date him in real life, he didnt have a perfect "profile" or fucking phony positive persona so you left him to rot alone for years and years with his own thoughts in misery even though he was obviously crying out for help, then youre all so surprised and concerned when he just ends it, when its too late…its selfish arrogant feminism run amok thats why theres a disgusting epidemic of single mothers and male depression, divorce and suicide…great country you assholes have constructed here, no fun or good for anyone but the narrowminded entitled privileged elite anymore.
Fuck
I just recently was acquainted with the phenomenon of Brody Stevens. I wish he was still alive. No need for suicide. Just get the med situation figured out, right? Such a lovable guy. Damn.
Sad
This makes me so damn sad! This guy's talent was so underrated!!! Rip Brody Stevens
I think out of all the celebs that have died (some that actually make you sad) his suicide truly makes me sad. I think he could be a really difficult person- but it was because he was so uncomfortable in his own skin and so overwhelmingly sensitive. I’m a dude and it makes me all misty.
Fuck man I wish I could of helped
that exhale in the end…i know it all too well…R.I.P.
This shit is making me sad man because im sad some times too even with my family and even in a crowd😔 RIP Brody Stevens
I feel you. I feel alone even with my family, too but I keep telling reminding myself that I'm not and seeing the reactions to this video, when we never get any sort of interaction on this channel makes me realize that we are all a lot more "together" than we all realize it. Hang in there!
Upside Down Creative Media
Thanks homie I needed that🤝 and yeah your right I noticed that we are not the only ones who feel like this and it makes me feel not so alone to be honest. Who ever you are I send you a big stoner hug from the west coast my friend. And if you ever feel like you need to take something of your chest and don’t really have no one to talk to hit me up here: let me know you read my comment so I edit out my email dude. We gotta stay strong my friend 💪🏼 For us and for our family.
rest easy 🙁
Damn.. RIP BRODY.. One of a kind human and comic. What a special soul. Too sensitive for this earth
God bless everybody
See you soon Brody
what are you trying to say?
Nick Serio Are you okay?
@Upside Down Creative Media I didn't mean for it to sound like that
I mean it's his body, his choice. He can do with it what he wants they decide to do it and it was going to make him happy so that's it.
Where is your Karma now? A guy who constantly pushed positive energy to the world and never got any in return. RIP Brody. Fuck you "Karma."
Everyone cares when it's too late…
Cory Smith Positive Energy!
Thank you Brody for sharing intimate parts of your life as well as your comedy with the world. We "Enjoyed It"
RIP
Fuck bro. Can't stop crying. Miss this dude I didn't even get 2 meet him. Wish more ppl showed him love. But I don't kno if that would have helped or not…. R.I.P brother
Take care brody, love you man
After this situation and a situation I have had in my family recently I've realized how ignorant I was about depression. It's just so scary how hard it is to understand and relate to the people that have depression which makes it even harder to help them.
I'm so sorry Brody…
In the east, they dont usually see suicide as tragic. Americans treat suicide, like they would have lived forever, if they didnt do it. Truth is we are all going to die, and thats ok. Some people want the choice of when that happens to them. They should have the right to. If there is existence after death, perhaps this was his spiritual destiny
@04dram04 Of course people should have the right to choose, but it doesn't make it any less tragic that he was living a life so devoid of happiness and so full of loneliness and suffering that he chose to take it. I'm not American, but I am Western and do see suicide as a tragedy. That view and the view that one has the right to do so are not mutually exclusive. As for his spiritual destiny, I see very little reason to believe in such things and know very few that do. I can't know for sure of course, but I think it makes rational sense to assume that death is exactly what it seems to be: an end to one's existence. Betting one's life on anything else seems pretty careless. Such beliefs may in fact be the final motivational nudge that pushes one to suicide, and subsequent oblivion, when they would not otherwise do so if they didn't harbour this delusion.
Rest in peace.
Poor guy, I really question some of the pharmaceuticals given to people with depression. A lot of the times they make things a lot worse.
yes and I agree! there are better much med's that are available.
Recent studies show they really mess peoples brains up. People end up worse off then the were before taking medication.
When you're bipolar like he was, they're a necessity. They kept him alive for another decade.
Honestly, I came figuring I'd want to bash this video for being click bait utilizing the passing of an oft overlooked comedian to gain views but your description is pretty fucking right on for how a lot of us are probably feeling right now. My cousin named his son after Brody and he always told him, "Shelter the boy from that information." That's who Brody was to the people who really loved him, he said some funny stuff that breaks your heart sometime but man he meant a lot to so many.
DamTheKid nah. we were big fans and totally get being overlooked. he was loved. thanks for not bashing us.
@Upside Down Creative Media hah, no this was good stuff, best to you and yours
On all levels it is just so so sad! My heart breaks for him!

Its not our place to understand the true meaning of the lessons in life.
@04dram04 What the heck are you talking about???
matt cohen Matt read it again, it makes a lot of sense. Brody helped a lot of people & still does.
the music is unnecessary
Michael Wallace do you feel better?
@Upside Down Creative Media it just took me out of it, my opinion
Michael Wallace tbh, i regret it but it’s a habit to score videos. I started making a longer documentary but stopped it at a minute because i was in a rush. thanks for the feedback.
@Upside Down Creative Media understandable. good work
At a party back in the day we were crushing and snorting lexapro lol good times
There is so much attachment trauma and unresolved childhood trauma that can make intimacy really hard. Can create that being around people and still feeling lonely.
Gonna miss him.
brody was very open about his issues unfortunately i can't say i'm surprised but i am devastated
Love you browdy.
In my opinion Brody seems like he was someone who had obvious mental issues; which he verbally expressed
every inch of his problems (which is shocking no one he knew picked up on it and
talked to him). Doesn't take an FBI agent to read his "audio language"
for a lack of a better term. You know, "body language". It's extremely

"It's like he doesn't even have a set in mind he just goes up there"
He's literally saying what's going on with him, and when he saying
certain phrases it's a reaction that works in his setting with the
audience that also benefits him in a split instant from a negative to a positive thought. I
would put my chips on 80% of him proceeding with his actions was brought
upon by being trolled/bullied, and the rest on the medication and
personal issues. You can tell he was a fragile, sensitive, kind, loving
human being. This is my deduction from watching his videos since this has happened. As I have just discovered Brody, and am highly upset emotionally because this man shouldn't have gone the way he did. And how impactful trolling can be to specific people out there in the world which we never think of when we disrespect them online. We've all done it. Trolling needs to die off. It's Internet cancer. And probably giving us all cancer. Brody needed someone to be there to push the "Brodiness" aside and talk to his soul & connect as true good friends would do.
@Jekyll Hyde I take it you've never seen his show "Enjoy It" It about all about Brody and his issues. First episode is on here. Please be educated about this.
Man, I'm so torn inside right now..😢I remember talking to him via periscope recently, he always spoke the truth and was really sincere about life and Hollywood and "the industry"…we lost a great comedian and an even better person! Reach out to old friend, tell them you've been thinking about them, take them out to lunch, have some good laughs and give them a big hug…life in short people we need to get off social media and connect with people face to face, it's killing us!!!
I feel so Sad for Brody, what a Sweet Man. It looked like he was on his way but those depression meds take time to work. I know I've been taking Zoloft for years & when I stopped I felt there was no hope, it was awlful. I adopted a Dog (Pit Bull) who needed constant attention, he helped me immensely with my issues bcz I had no choice but to focus on him every minute of everyday, he was abused and I knew he Needed me, but looking back This Dog had helped me just as much as I Helped him. Maybe someone who's having problems with depression will read this and See that there are other things that can Really Help you & bring you Happiness which My Dog did for me. There are better Med's that I have taking that aren't Anti-Depressants that help with boredom, Saddness & low energy like Suboxone.
SSRIs dont work
Wow.. that’s rough to watch knowing what followed. I’m from Seattle n first knew of him from a public access show he did which was out of control and a bunch of nonsense but 100% funny. One thing he mentioned here is that he was alone and I’ve seen it brought up a few times that nobody ever saw him in a relationship.. with a man or woman.. wonder if that was just somethin he always dealt with. Just a sad situation
destroy22 So cool you got to experience the Teina and Brody show. It was so out of control! Young Brody was definitely off the rails and filled with passion. Thanks for commenting!
You can see how heavy his eyes were at the end. I’m sorry he is gone but he doesn’t have to feel so out of place any more.(not that he was out of place becaus many loved him)
Jesus this ripped me apart.
Fuck man me too 😓
We miss you Brody 💔
Positive push!
Fuck man
I feel so bad for Brody. You can tell he was had mental health issues, he didn't ever have to verbalize it. He would wear it on his face. He would just try and psych himself up to be positive. Which is something we should all try, smile more, be generous, and treat people well.
I can tell you as someone who has suffered from depression and anxiety… everyday is a battle, but don't slip too far down. Otherwise you'll never come back out. Fight like you've never fought before. I wish you all well, Brody is at peace.
Aghhh. That I will take care and breathing at the end. Smh. So sorry you felt that much sadness inside. Rip.
Depression is very serious and very misunderstood for people (fortunately) that have never been through it.
John Smith I agree ✌🏼💜
Terribly sad.
I thought I could get through this without crying , I was wrong.
I’m from Ontario, Canada and I’ve been a Brody fan since 2009. I’m genuinely sad that he’s gone and I’m even more sad that he didn’t realize how big his ‘reach’ was. RIP Brody. Positive Energy!
I'm not crying, you're crying. really wish I/we all coulduve given this man the biggest hug. As someone thats in a rough spot right now I know the feels. We miss and love you Brody. You touched and helped more people than you'll ever know.
In the east, they dont usually see suicide as tragic. Americans treat suicide, like they would have lived forever, if they didnt do it. Truth is we are all going to die, and thats ok. Some people want the choice of when that happens to them. They should have the right to.
We love you Brody. I’m sorry you felt so alone.
Damn, that’s sad
</3 </3 </3
The music smh
Sad piano music makes you shake your head
What a bitch
Thats not nice.rip.brodu
U
You’re pathetic.
Warning signs will show over all cases of mentally ill people. Brody is much happier now. Just enjoy what he left us all! #PositiveEnergy #YYYEEESSS!!! #YouGotIt
Change your headline. Its disrespectful as fuck. If you were actually a fan and you actually watched his periscopes ESPECIALLY the last one… And noticed that he hadn't done one in a week before he killed himself… THEN YOU KNOW THE ANSWER IS YES. Yes, he did mention it on periscope, ALL THE TIME. But that wasn't enough. People knowing it wasn't enough. change your headline, there is no questions needed.
I’m not a real fan but I think of him everyday.
for a Jew to kill themselves..their revenge is about staying alive & making money..because life & money were taken away from them during that awful period.
1. pharma meds actually come with suicidal side effects, that sucks
2. the comedy store culture changed into high school cliques..youre either with the Rogan clique..the D'elia clique..some random dolo celebrity..everyone else is fvkd.
3. he needed moderate bud & a steady girlfriend to give him balance @ home. when you go home alone, night after night, following a wack scene at the store, it makes sense.
I miss Brody.
I used to watch his Periscopes often, and I'm not at all surprised that it ended this way for him.
You could see it coming… I know what it's like, but there's really nothing that anyone can do.
Burial sometimes it feels that way. I think this aloneness we all feel is the thing that binds us together.
Hind sight is 20/20 and so is the guess work. My brother committed suicide with no note. Wondering cannot drive you nuts.
The meds probably made him more suicidal.
I am a health and wellness coach. I always recommend L-tryptophan, a natural amino acid, that is non-addictive, to anyone who has depression, instead pharma crap.
Sacramento loves you Brody
This just bums the shit out of me. He was awesome.
These Gdamn medications are killing people.
My heart breaks for him x
Without Jesus, life is unbearable. Money and fame, will leave you empty. If you’re lonely, please seek God!
This so fucking sad. What a shame
Rest In Peace, Brother. See you soon.
RIP brother!!!!
And everything stays the same. People dont really care about depressed people until they are gone, then we care for a moment.
Truth is depressed or not, everyone has it rough. No one makes it through every day all smiles and giggles. Even the "happy ones" aren't always happy. We all need each other, but the desire to make ones life or surroundings better tends to leave us avoiding helping others.
I agree. I support his choice. (I know that seems evil or mean, but it’s unintentional). It’s pretty apparent that he needed and was searching for help, but had already known he had been poisoning his brain with his own thoughts for as long as he could remember. That’s hard to walk away from.
@Jason Deros , that's so fucked up. Its intentional because you know its fucked up and you said it anyway. He was fucking bipolar. If he could have gotten through the low, he would have had some good days ahead. But you support him killing himself? Brody was, still is my hero.
He tried to project positivity as hard as he could but there was always a real sadness about him.
This made me cry
Lexapro sucks
fuck
brody looks Armenian.
This is the saddest shit I’ve watched. Brody was making himself live and talking himself through life out loud. That was for no one else but him. Positive energy and everything he said was to help him through the day. I’ve been there and it’s a Fkn nightmare and he just had another outlet on stage. He couldn’t explain that to his friends. It’s impossible. It’s a fragile life. That guy was loved or is loved. Sucks
Feeling sad as fak watching this . I am glad you existed and talked to us Brody. Restn easy. I hope. Godspeed…
Well all feel alone friend.
spiritual help is very good, but americans does not seem to care about that….
Shame to lose such a voice but at least it is raising awareness. I feel like everyone has someone in their circle who deals with notion of being constantly alone, even when others are there
Miss you Brody
A lot has to do with trying new antidepressants. He mentioned at the beginning of the vid he's trying a couple of new meds. It's CRUCIAL to be with them 24/7 on new meds because you really don't know what effects it has on people. I have family going through this and it's absolutely heart breaking because you can only do so much for them. It's an awful mix of something deeply internal, mental and chemical imbalance that we just don't understand right now. The best we can do is to always be reaching out TO THEM, not waiting for them to ask for help because they won't. RIP Brody.
Love you Brody RIP
Too much thinking while in a bad mental state gets you here.
Poor poor Brody.
Poor guy. Very sad.
Should have dumped the meds down the toilet. I feel sorry for the people doctors put on this shit.
Unfortunate. This hits a lot of people hard, me included. We suffer, we care.
Last time I saw him on the church his situation didn’t sound good. Sucks he’s gone. Rip
Let’s all be nicer to one another. 🙏
Yes! #EnjoyIt #PositiveEnergy! #YouGotIt
L.A. man . it will kill you get away from them liberals
Shit. No kidding about warning signs. It's definitely present.
I'm surprised by how much his suicide has effected me. I guess, as I'm getting older, it takes a toll. Such a, seemingly, good fella. I guess he was good because the felt a great deal and possibly that was also his end. The world seems to make less and less room for the decent.
So fucking sad how he tried so hard to give out positive energy in hopes of getting it back but didn't, not enough anyway
That’s last ten seconds says everything
I'm from the UK and had never heard of brody until he passed away but having looked at his back catalogue on here it turns out hes a quality guy and comic and it's just sad that hes gone and didn't realise how far his comedy would reach x r.i.p brody x gonna put other comedy fans into him un the UK whenever I get the chance
His presence is still missed. People like him are rare.
I try and be kind to every person I come across even if they act rude. I smile and say hello to everyone, hold doors open for everyone, just hoping positivity will come back to me.
Still I feel so alone. I go to work 8-4, sit in traffic for an hour, and hermit from 5-10 when I shut my eyes.
If someone wants to kill themself there nothing you can do to stop them .. just let them now you care about them and you'll always be there if they need you, also mean it if you say it .. they'll be able to tell if your just saying it
Yet he was super nice to everybody…. What a lesson I learned today.
We are all alone in this world. We have to get over that!!!!
Usually wanting to commit suicide is more about needing a break to recuperate from either extreme or perceived extreme discomfort (disappointment, health issues, mental overload et cetera).
But then you have people who just feel that they've fulfilled everything they wanted to in life and now want to experience the next plateau.
Johns Corey 😂😂😂
His face at the end says it all. I will come back to this video when I'm down.
Some days I feel so depressed it's unbearable and I don't know what to do.
Go see a good psychiatrist and talk to someone. Google psychiatrists in your area and find reviews on them. You want one that listens to you and has high reviews. Good luck and whatever you do don't do anything drastic. The sun always comes up tomorrow.
@Varmint Baby don't have enough money to see a psych.
The World lost a kind soul with a big heart. Truly rest in peace. Positive energy…
Stop poisoning your body with SSRIs people.
Brodie had been fighting for a long time; may he rest in peace.
Gonna miss you big guy
What i shame i can relate to him the brain is a wicked place to be when it does not stop running
Rip brody and anyone else who lost to depression and anyone struggling stay focused as long as you wake up in the morning u got fight left dont tap out i like to think it will get better just gotta stay strong
You Got It!
Brody seemed like such a nice guy
Depression is the silent killer. A great talent lost , rest in peace.
We all need to reach out more. Check in with people you care about regularly it may make more of a difference than you can ever imagine,
A room full of ppl makes me feel even more alone than when alone. I hate the racket they all collectively create. Individual voices are fine. And when alone alone, the silence is so deafening. My brain sucks. RIP Brody. I feel ya
This is so sad
First off. Get off social media and quit living your life vicariously through threads and a camera lens. Get into a sober living environment. C professional counseling. Work out hard.
“chilling on twitter”
first time i heard that one
I think he meant take a break from it, but yea, it was an odd way to put it.
Fixed Face Because he was on Twitter often & getting bullied. So he decided to take a break from it.
Was lucky enough to meet him in person. Funny guy and positive energy. I’m sorry he suffered so much…keep fighting the good fight called life everyone. Doesn’t last as long as you think so don’t trip
Thanks for the comment.
Holy shit, I'm on lexapro.
Yeah I'm on lamictal freaked me out when he said that
Hope you’re doing okay these days. Just checking in.
Positive push. This hits home hard

If you want to see the positivity and love he gave others reflected back at him posthumously, check out the Periscope streams of SBS's memorial held at the Comedy Store on March 11. Hundreds of people showed up, everyone from A-list movie stars to MLB baseball players. You can find the videos at Redban's periscope account. Warning: be prepared to cry a lot.
Heartbreaking.
So sad
We miss you man, hope ur happy now hangin with Carlin and all them 🙏
Who the fuck is Brody Stevens and why is this in my recommended?
He was a bright shining light.
All prescription drugs are bad idc what anyone says. The people who produce them have no intention of helping anyone because its not monetarily beneficial to them
Oh, apart from penicillin and stuff like that. I'm talking about prescription drugs for psychological issues.
The music in this video is depressing. You could have used a song that has some life to it. Not funeral music. Rest in peace BS.
I made it in a flash. Wasn’t really thinking — just what I felt at that time.
The only reason I would never be able to commit suicide is because I don't want to hurt my family and close friends. I would rather hurt inside for the rest of my life with a peacefull mind that at some point it does end and it doesn't last forever. I would take that burden just so I don't hurt the people I care about. I want to help their lives,cheer them up and not bring them down because I couldn't take it anymore. I can't imagine what would that do to my mother,sister,brother,father and few close friends. Their world would never be the same.
if you have depression dont resort to drugs it will make it worse, talk to somebody , find yourself because things will always get better
Say what you will about depression, but the man had some fantastic posture.
Sad ending. Autopsy results were a bit disturbing and sad.
"I just feel alone sometimes" damn that line killed me, Fucking terrible altogether.
FUCK THE COMEDY STORE. THEY CUT BRODY STEVENS 1 HOUR SPECIAL.
Sad. I know how he felt. I feel the same way.
Life feels meaningless without the one you love.
I think that in order to combat this system that is designed to break and keep people down, is to find reasons to keep going. ANY reason to keep going. Suicide is never a way out. Its final.
BIG PHARMA KILLED THIS MAN! Listen to what he's saying in his final periscope! He's says throughout, and especially at the end, that THE MEDS AREN'T RIGHT! BIG PHARMA KILLED ROBIN WILLIAMS TOO! Read about all the antidepressants Williams was also taking at the time of suicide. DO NOT FALL VICTIM TO BIG PHARMA AND THEIR PHARMACEUTICAL REPS POSING AS DOCTORS! They are evil soul destroyers – LOOK AT THE OPIOD CRISIS. PLEASE PEOPLE WAKE UP – YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A LIFE-LONG REVENUE GENERATOR FOR THESE EVIL PHARMA CORPS. Once they get their hooks into you it's very hard to get out. Repetition is how the subconscious mind is programmed – and they will tell you over and over again that you are sick, you are sick, you are sick, until YOU BELIEVE THE LIES AND SWALLOW THE PILLS. ONCE YOU'RE DEAD THEY DON'T CARE. This is a Trillion Dollar industry and they will do anything it takes to keep their hooks in you. PLEASE PEOPLE WAKE UP. BRODY COULD HAVE BEEN SAVED. COUNTLESS OTHERS CAN BE SAVED. I WAS CAUGHT IN THEIR TREACHEROUS WEB FOR 22 YEARS UNTIL I WOKE UP. The human brain is very powerful and can heal all disease without PHARMACEUTICAL CHEMICAL POISON. DON'T BE FOOLED. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. BLESS BRODY'S SOUL
Bipolar aint joke.shame if he didnt have bipolar maybe he still be with us 🙁
Dude…).8
So friggin' sad man. Sux.
This legit just broke me.. i dunno why i feel so sad when i see these type of videos.. it makes it more real hes gone.. people like him shouldn’t be gone..
“818 Till I die!!!” Love and miss u Brody
Anti depressants are terrible man.
They don’t work.
U need real life changes.
Pharmaceuticals killed him. Fuck those things , tht almost killed me and when I Or many others kill themselves for the same reason they do it silence because speaking up means Physical and Psycological torture while being locked in a Looney bin against their will. I don't blame the poor guy
My brother had started taking Lexapro just before his suicide too… RIP Brody
why did you unlist it bro?
Tbh it still hurts me that he’s gone and I kept getting views and notifications about it so unlisting made sense to me
He needed so little. He was so afraid of getting older with no security. Everybody told him how great he was but nobody would put a penny in his pocket. I know a man is not responsible for another man but it's too bad we couldn't have found a way to get some money to him
I fing love SBS. We love you Brody. There’s many people that do. You should know that.
Love this video
Im only 25 but living with severe depression just takes so much energy leaves you with nothing, Most of my family passed away at a early age. my dearest old friends wont talk to me because of third party rumors. this world is a Living hell. Its very sad what happened to Brody but im so damn Glad he got to have his moment in the Spot light. The man made a name for himself in ways many others could not and fought hard till the end. Such a motivation to keep going, Youll never be forgotten Brody Stevens. Positive push!
