The video instantly captivated the hearts of people across the internet, not only because of his dedication to helping others but also because of his beautiful voice. "Over the next few months our health care system will be tested. Many lives will be lost. Health care providers will be under an incredible amount of stress to save thousands of people. But when times are as dark as they are today, nothing shines brighter than the human spirit," he wrote on Instagram. "There is something beautiful about a collective struggle.

Nurses, doctors, students, research scientists, politicians, Uber eats drivers, cashiers, factory workers etc. . . . Getting through this will be hard but one thing is certain . . . the only way we will get through it is together, as one."

Guided by a beating heart. I can't tell where the journey will end. But I know where it’ll start....So wake me up when it’s all over. When I’m wiser and I’m older. All this time I was finding myself and I....didn’t know I was lost...” —— In 2018 the writer of this song committed suicide.... a gifted musician, Avicii battled mental health challenges, #anxiety, #depression along with substance abuse, for many years before eventually losing his battle with #suicide —- From messages I get on a daily basis I’ve learned that most of us suffer in silence. And that silence eventually grows louder and louder until it’s deafening and the only thing we hear.....You can mask that silence with social media, work, substance abuse, etc etc but the only way to truly break that silence is to talk about it. The only way we can end the stigma of mental health is through open communication and dialogue.... it’s almost impossible to fix a problem that you never talk about... —- If you know someone with behavioral changes, expecting the worse of outcomes, insomnia, and unexplained nervousness it’s up to you to reach out. You can LITERALLY save someone’s life......Much Love as always -Doctor Elvis ❤️ Music Is Medicine- —- If you’re thinking about suicide, are worried about a friend or loved one, or would like emotional support, the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1-800-273-TALK (1-800-273-8255) is available 24/7 across the United States. —- —- —- #avicii #suicideawareness #suicideprevention #mentalhealth #depression #anxiety #gethelp #bethehelpsomeoneneeds A post shared by Doctor Elvis (@doctor.elvis.francois) on Nov 21, 2019 at 4:10pm PST 4 / 4 COVID-19Music CoversTouching StoriesMusic
