I was going through a very tough time in my life where it felt like I had forgotten how to laugh or smile and like some kind of miracle, I stumbled upon a Nathan for You clip on Youtube. It was the poop frozen yogurt episode. When I watched the clip I knew I had to watch the entire episode and just binge on Nathan for You. It felt so foreign to laugh, yet amazing after not doing so for weeks. I remember crying after watching a few episodes, not because I was sad, but because this show had made me laugh and actually feel good after thinking I would never feel that way again as I was heavily considering suicide. There is so much silly absurdity in life that make for a good laugh and this show helped me see it. After watching this show, I remembered what funny was and it was a refreshing feeling. I totally identified with Nathan Fielder's character and love the way he isn't afraid to say things that would make others uncomfortable. He's a rebel. I remembered that there are people in this world that enjoy making others feel happy. There isn't one episode I didn't like, I absolutely love them all. This show really picked me up form the hole I was in, and after that I began to see the lighter side of life.

This may sound nuts, crazy or unbelievable to you, but it really helped me and it was like something clicked in my brain. I really hope this show doesn't get cancelled and that Nathan may continue to bring us joy and laughter. If the show does unfortunately come to an end, I hope he continues to do what he loves and make people laugh. I could go on for at least another hour on how this show made me feel good and gave me hope in life, but I will cut it here.

It's safe for me to say that Nathan Fielder saved my life. If I ever meet him, I will shake his hand and thank him for a job well done. I love you Nathan Fielder! 11/10 stars!
