Bobby and Theo help addicts and family of addicts by having these conversations. I know Theo isn’t in the episode, but in his own pod he also talks about addiction a lot. And it helps see so much of the struggles they phase as well as their perception of life. I like that Bobby asked everyone in the podcast to keep him on track.
I'm currently dealing with a family member in the throes of their addiction and am appreciating the conversation in the beginning of this episode. Some good insight I'm learning.
@@nirvanafan21191I’ve lost my stepdad to addiction last may. And now looking back at how I handled myself at times makes me a little sad. And the way Dr Drew explained certain things, opened up my eyes. I hope you’re able to stay strong for them, it’s a long battle.
@@Kerry234 Sorry for your loss. My family member's addiction goes back decades to when I was a kid. It's just been in the last 10 years that we've come to realize they have a real problem. So it's been a long battle already trying to keep them sober. They've done in-patient treatment, AA, sponsors, the works but they keep giving up on their support system and falling back in to their addiction. It's hard to get through to them when that happens so it's getting to the point where we've had discussions of just cutting them out of our lives, or giving ultimatums to do so because we feel we've tried everything on our end. It's tough because as Bobby and Dr. Drew were saying, you can see when addiction is taking a toll on someone. That's what we're seeing in our situation.
CONGRATULATIONS ON THE YEAR OF SOBRIETY BOBBY!!! You’ve been an inspiration in my journey. Wouldn’t have as much time as I do without you Bob. Love you. Keep it up.
That tasted sooo good!! Lol!! Somebody tell that beotch! I love how she loves to bring up personal stuff about Bobby on pods! Glad he broke up with her! Our boy is so more confident! 😎
It's like who is khalilah besides Lee's ex-girlfriend? She just can't walk into his life and get famous off his Fame without doing anything just being his girlfriend. What did she do to get famous what is she known for on her own ? Nothing completely nothing
This is what happens with sobriety - especially the first year. Around the 2.5 year mark of sobriety however, that itch becomes very strong. If Bobby goes 5 years sober - he'll likely become president of the United States.
Thanks for the sobriety talks… I’m a few years sober of a lifestyle and opioid addiction. I still smoke weed everyday. But hearing you talk to DR about you’re relapse helps. Much love tiger belly family.
Bobby, bro.. let her go. Go your separate ways. She’s the only one benefitting from this weird relationship. Need to separate and cut off completely. She holds all power of you. Really frustrates me how she is still able to be part of tigerbelly. Let her do her own thing. She contributes nothing. Absolutely nothing. Especially now even more that you guys are not in a relationship. Part way my guy it’s over!!!!! 😂
I'm so proud of you Bobby for taking control over your life👏 He's realized his worth & There's a noticeable confidence about Bobby now, he's proud of his sobriety & the work he had to put in to get there. I'm so excited to see this & I'm so proud him. Like they say about the program "it works, if you work it!" And I can tell he's really working the steps of the program! Much love from Indianapolis!👏❤🙏🏻
I've been sober for 2 days and Bobby has been a big inspiration for me to quit. Seeing him blossum in the last months and focus on his future more is truly amazing. The Slept King has awoken.
you missed the part that came before, where he said bobby needs to check in with his addiction sponsor, and not k when it comes to his behavior. this is why addicts relapse. when we don't follow the program's directives. bobby's chronic relapsing is about his inability to use the people in his life designated to help him keep his accountability.
No offense everyone has their own version and intensities of addiction. But it drives me nuts when Bobby talks about how he had it so hard with addiction and theirs others such as myself and Khalyla’s sister for example or Dr.Drew’s daughter who have experienced real full blown addiction. And Bobby over here talking about weed. Hahaha Bro it’s almost disrespectful and rude and offensive as hell to others that have been through battles and turmoils such as that. Proud of you Bobby for your own inner battle and conquering your own addiction and demons. But and I mean a big BUT….IT’S IN NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM THE SAME FROM THC. I MEAN FR THERE’S ADDICTS WHO USE WEED AS A GATEWAY DRUG GATEWAY “OUT”. I usually bite my tongue each episode but when Bobby makes an entire episode about this I got to point this out. It’s not the same whatsoever!!!!! That’s like comparing heroin and coffee and cigarettes as same addictive qualities. 😂
Weed is insidious though, and your comment is proof of that. One of the main problems with addiction, is the slippery slope. It's why many people are completely sober. Sure, one hit of a joint is fine...sure, one beer won't even hurt you...sure, one shot, with this song playing, come on! Ah man, one bump..etc etc.
Everyone is different. This isn't the "pain addiction Olympics" it isn't a competition. Some people feel no temptation toward certain substances. Other substances, complete opposite.
Half of your comment refutes the other half. Eh, I was out of line. You're just venting some annoyance at some of the stuff that Bobby said. You know there is nuance to it. My bad, I'm not deleting my other comments though. I reacted too quickly.
Wow, this must be my favourite episode of Tigerbelly yet!! Such genuine, mature and relaxed conversations about life and one's own growth!! This is truly what life is about! Moving Forward And Reflecting!! Much Love To You All TigerFam And I Hope You Are All Doing Well And If Not, Just Hold On, You're Gonna Get Through This I Promise You!!! 💖💖💖💖💖🐯🙌 Love You All
Drew was quite ignorant, and Bobby picked up on it and displayed his frustration and even jokes that flew over this Dr.s head. At the end Dr. Drew finds it important to take out is phone a show the weather when he was filming that show, Bobby looks around and say "thats so interesting " there are many more too ! Bobby, you were hilarious when Dr. Drew would try to interrupt while talking, using non verbal humor, and Drew takes a call mid pod, witch was not an emergency, than asks how the persons cat is doing. Bobby seen the disrespect and just looks around the room, playing it perfectly.
Ima be honest I got interested in the show a min ago kinda watched it here and there and your co host had a really obvious great chemistry w/ bobby in the beginning but it had gotten to a level where things where info was being thrown out by khalyla and even getting beyonds awkward w/ every guest appearance and now it just seems like Bobby's being held hostage on his own podcast I don't think I'll ever watch this podcast again sorry buddy still support bobby though
She comes across mean because she criticizes Bobby a lot. I’m glad Dr. Drew stated that in his previous conversations with Khalyla she would complain about Bobby alot. I’m surprised casting agents even want to deal with him since Khalyla still scolds Bobby about his disgusting habits & still states that Bobby is unable to be punctual without her.
I love Bobby so much. Despite his journey, he keeps winning every day that he wakes up and chooses to stay the course. Bobby, you give more people strength than you know. Heart ♥️
Hell yeah! Love Dr. Drew! So initially I’m wanting to really follow this conversation, HOWEVER, I can’t help but to notice the way the cameras are cropped, to where the giant Bobby Lee head behind Khalaya perfectly aligns with the mannequin behind Dr. Drew’s right side creating this giant nightmare-Ish Bobby Lee cartoon monster! 😳😳 🤣
I can't stop drinking. I've stopped doing meth, weed, acid, (mostly because I've removed people from my life that could help me get such things), but I can't stop drinking. I've stopped blackout drinking, almost no hard liquor...but every other day, I drink a lot of beer and or wine. Often two days in a row. And I can still maintain all the basics life. But it's obviously inhibiting me from evolving any more in many ways. I have no idea how to convince myself out of this weird purgatory I've put myself in
I love dr drew. So w Bobby this is one of my favorite shows. “Does your psychiatrist understand addiction?” “They love it” 😂😂 the stuff Bobby says is so freaking funny. Dr drew is so good with comedians.
@1:07:20 kinda disappointed that Drew doesn’t realize why he wanted/needed to become famous…it wasn’t only because he likes people & wanted to help them. Performers/fame seekers crowdsource the love & attention that was missing from one or both parents. Drew has been open about his mother being abusive, not sure how he wouldn’t make that connection.
Its interesting to hear Dr. Drew point out that there's a distinction between addiction and dependancy. I never felt that I was "addicted" to my DOC, just "dependant" on it. When I would try to explain that to people they would just tell me I was an addict in denial, but that never felt true to me, I just never knew how else to explain it.
I'm 16+ years sober. Was addicted to cocaine at a very young age. It morphed into crack. I always knew I deserved better for myself, and the come downs were brutal, filled with regret. One day I found out I was going to be a father, and I quit cold turkey. I remember being plagued with nightmares of using again. They always ended with a huge regret of losing however many days of my sobriety and having to start over. Now, I am 5,931 days clean, give or take. I could never imagine starting at day 0 again. What helped for me was correcting my thoughts. For the first year, I probably was a little crazy. I remember having to yell at myself everytime a thought about using, or a feeling of not being enough, crept into my head. I believe it helped correct these thoughts from continuing. To everyone out there, it's never too late to take ahold of your life again.
I wish drew was my counselor, if the treatment centers were full of people like him, people like me would be successful in their sobriety. I dropped out because it was more of a burden than helpful. One day….. one day
Yeah that didn’t happen, they had a whole conversation about sex addicted and try to get Bobby to use the 3 circles. Then bobby went to khalyala asking her to call him out on if he goes to far with things and she kept saying “I can’t be the one for this” over and over.
no wonder Khalyla's saying here relationship is better then ever being friends. she's using him as a sugar daddy and she's still got here main man in Hawaii in a huge house paid for by Bobby. I actually cant watch this podcast anyone. Catch you on the other podcasts Bobby.
Khalyla back at it again with her know it all self. Always feeling the need to bring up Bobby’s struggles in front of everyone. If Bobby wanted to talk about it he would bring it up himself she shouldn’t be prying it out of him.
I find it annoying too being a guy…but however being empathetic and aware. I think she only does it because she still cares for Bobby deeply. I mean there’s a Doctor right in front of them who she can confide in. ( yes with others watching but…has that stopped them before lol? ) maybe it will lead to them working things out privately eventually instead 😅
@@Zen-fe6oq this is true but she does this every episode and tells embarrassing stories of bobby and calls him things like dirty and a slob and doesn’t even ask if she can say them
@@ryanmarquez9404uh he’s actually a board certified addiction medicine specialist and medical doctor. not someone using the title doctor and giving medical advice but really have a ohd.
29:24 it's literally CA law that they have to put dosage directions on the packaging of every edible sold by any legitimately licensed dispensary. And on top of that dosage per PACKAGE (not serving size) is limited. If he's getting his stuff somewhere illegal, don't blame the cannabis for making you feel extra funny.
I love Tigerbelly with my soul, but you all should know Dr. Drew is one of the worst Sociopaths in Hollywood. Skip this episode. Skip anything that worm wiggles his way into.
@Liv Anna Carlson isn't afraid to get naked, has been seen putting stuff in his ass, alcoholic, used drugs, yells alot, gets his poo everywhere, kinda wild and unpredictable.
Dr Drew checking Khalyla telling her to stay out of it was honestly reassuring. It felt to me like she was trying to regain some kind of control or moral superiority over Bobby’s sexual autonomy that she lost since the split, and Dr Drew didn’t let it happen
bobby previously asked k to keep watch over him as he started dating again to call him out if he lapses into sex addiction. a behavior that dr drew acknowledged was a danger. drew's advice was that bobby should use his sponsor to check his behavior, not his ex. you k haters cant see the forest from the trees.
@@BorisBidjanSaberi11 stop being a fucking baby about this shit. Addiction recovery is a process that Bobby Lee has to follow if he's going to survive. His habit of hiding from his sponsor and trying to white knuckle through trauma is why he relapsed and why he will continue to relapse. You think the people in recovery meetings are there because they're saints? Please child.
Wishing the best for both Bobby and Khalayla. I am glad you guys are navigating things in a healthy and loving way. Truly rooting for you both to find your bliss. Nosotros Papaya ❤
I’m glad people are starting to speak on the negative impact of weed, I used to love using so so so much. Miss it all the time but I know it’s a slippery slope where I just keep getting high all day, I never felt like a lazy pot head but I was always convinced I was slowly going crazy having symptoms similar to schizophrenia. Just my experience, it really can be an awesome thing for some things if you do know how to control yourself.
The thing a lot of people don't realize is that weed releases the euphoric chemicals from your brain that help you sleep. So, in a sense, you are actually getting high off your own supply. That's why the tolerance level goes up, because no matter how much weed you smoke, your brain is tapped out of the euphoric juices. That's also why if you are a chronic weed smoker, your sleep habits get bad. You feel restless in bed because the natural euphoria high from your own brain is all tapped out. Some people try to counter this by smoking weed "to go to sleep", but what is the point of that? Anyone who smokes weed more than once a week has a problem IMO.
Now that she's not dating bobby, what is Khalyla's continued reason for being on this podcast? She may have started it, but bobby built it. Her other solo podcast has gotten nowhere
You see someone struggling or suffering but you don't help them or even talk to them. "Ill look at you and you should know what I am saying." Strangers on the street or people you see in a crowd do this but a friend wouldn't. This comment and what Gilbert is saying speaks volumes to me. I reckon he hates Bobby this is not what a friend or even a business partner would say because you succeeding is them succeeding but do you blame the dude for hating Bobby after everything try building a friendship with the dude even if you have a genuine connection.
Probably one of the realest episode ever released❤ I struggled with adhd and addiction.Ive changed to better myself and been in therapy for just over a year, man has it helped so much. I really do think this podcast has saved me over the years. I basically grew up with the pod. Thank you Bobby ❤
wait he's dissing weed but said ketamine isn't so bad? pretty sure a k hole is one of the most intense experiences and I know people who have been through real trauma who can't take the stuff.. anyway
I think she was bringing up problems with Bobby because it was a perfect time to talk about it with Dr. Drew. We don’t want to lose Bobby in addiction again.
I know this is in the past, people blaming Khalyla all the time but notice the passive-aggressive behavior of Bobby when she addressed her concern about him leaning towards sex and gambling, i mean, that can really hurt feelings. i feel for Khalyla in some extent, Bobby can be a really hard character to deal with. They are really better off alone.
It’s obvious that having Bobby’s ex is not healthy to his personal growth. Why isn’t Dr Drew saying the obvious. He know that having bonus ex is healthy for him. Also Khalyla is acting like everything is all good but she also knows that she’s not helping bobys growth by sticking around
not necessarily true. yes, k is a co-dependent, but bob as known that their whole relationship and he uses that knowledge to avoid some of the responsibilities he has to keeping check of his own behavior. this is the reason why dr drew said bob needs to check in with his sponsor regarding potential sex addiction and for k to 'stay out of it.' my mom is a co-dependent and wasn't necessarily helpful in my journey towards sobriety, but i knew that i could manipulate her. what bob and k need are clear boundaries for each other, much like i have with my mom. they will always be closer than friends, and more like family
Sorry can’t watch this episode. Dr. Drew interrupts soooooooo often it’s extremely frustrating. He seems like a nice enough guy but clearly unable to read the room and let people finish a sentence. 🤦🏻♂️
