You experienced a "Peace of God that passes all understanding." It's the feeling we addicts are always trying to artificially create and it never works (as you know better than most). Wishing you many more such moments, Noah. You deserve them.
You have become my mentor Noah. I haven’t felt well for years and years and hopeful. I’m meeting with my urologist tomorrow to discuss trt options. You are a true inspiration Frank
Lets go Noah 😎 this is literally a night and day difference compared to your last video. Needed to hear this message, its super encouraging knowing there's days like that out there for all of us as long as we do the work and stay on the right path. Take care
Noah. Just stumbled on this - thank you for such a heartfelt and genuine communique! I needed to hear this. I’m in the struggle as I’m sure most of your viewers are. The depression/anxiety can really get right up in my face. You help me remember that it’s a liar. Really appreciate your thoughts and honesty!
Thanks for your courage to reach out and share your experience in a positive way! I had a co -worker I was trying to help, but due to chats and an age difference, I scared him away. He no longer works the same job and he asked me to leave him alone. While I am respecting his wishes, I constantly worry about his well-being. I’m like the older sister, who wants my “little brother” to be safe and happy. I was glad to see a genuine smile on your face. Keep close to your family and keep sharing! 😀
I am so happy for you Noah! I've been following you on and off for about a decade now and I can't describe how cool it is to see a video like this from you! In the beginning I was following you religiously, but then around 5-6 years ago I was just too busy with my own stuff so I wasn't following you as much, but I'd occasionally be like "hey what's that Noah guy doing! :D I am so curious to know how he is doing these days! Gotta check his channel again!". I'm soooo happy for you bro! 💪
Hello, I’ve literally just come across your channel Noah, and was fascinated by what you described. Something similar happened to me nearly three years ago, and the only way that I can describe it was a ‘spiritual’ experience. It was absolutely wonderful, and I pray thatI might experience it again. Bless you.
Congratulations brother. May you have many more such content days. I really enjoyed and took a lot from your video on learning how to accept how your thoughts are just thoughts in your head and nothing more. I’ve been working on that concept for a while, but The reinforcement is good.
I've been feeling terrible for probably 3 years now. I feel as though my body and mind is rotting away. I never knew it could be TRT related, I found your early videos around a month ago which led me to go get my bloods done. It came back back at 240 ng/dl which im led to understand is really low (Im in 32) I start therapy next week. It almost made me cry hearing how well you felt that Friday. I need to feel like this. 🙏
I am happy you have some relief. Dealing with depression myself. I am the trt as well and would like it to help. What helps me the most is listening to the Gospel message and it brings a smile to my face and relief. Go figure im a confessional Lutheran.
I cried after watching this. Recently i developed a major depressive episode mixed with panic attacks and derealization/depersonalization. I had been living in a nightmare for two months, then things got a little better, but now the panic, really low moods, and obsessive thinking is creeping back in. It feels unrelenting. Thank you so much for the hope. I really hope i can get to this point in the future.
Noah, I have been watching your videos for over a year. I have been on TRT for 6 years and your progress in the gym has been inspiring. The world needs heroes. Even heroes fall, but they get up.
Bro, you were one of the people on RU-vid that helped shine a light in my darkest times and gave me hope when I was fighting my depression. It was comforting to know that there were people like you that I could relate to who have overcome their demons. Your story and other people's stories encouraged me to go and seek help, which I did, and I came out the other end. Thank you so much for sharing your story.
Such an inspirational message, it's really nice to see you doing well I've been following you since I had my first episode years and years ago and you've always helped. I'm really in the worst place I have ever been in at the moment, major depression constant anxiety and strong DPDR. Everyday nearly feels impossible and I'm just surviving, I really hope things can get better and I'm trying to just keep going even when my mind doesn't want to. I'm terrified but I'm going to keep trying. Much love ❤
Found you through Douglas Bloch - I've recovered and am among the lucky but I must say, perhaps it's the suffering I don't know but you are an exceptional, brave, and eloquent guy and I wish you and your many many followers the best! -David
A lot of people use you as strength brother. Hell I don’t even know ya and after that last video iv been wondering about ya all week. Glad to see you on the up & up.
I can really relate to the feeling it’s so hard to explain but it’s like the exact opposite of how you would describe feeling when you are super anxious and overall physically sick. It’s like you’re perfectly comfortable and able to enjoy every second of every moment that passes by, I think it’s just a sign that your body/mind are in a really strong and healthy place. Super cool to see you reach this new peak
Noah I used to follow you a couple years ago before I got evicted from my apartment, we were both struggling. It is amazing to hear from you today abd hear how good you are doing. May 19 will be 1 year clean for me. For me it took jail and trwatment court, for some of us that is just what it takes.
Thank you for sharing. This was very encouraging for me to hear. I'm currently getting neurofeedback therapy and can say it has been very helpful for me in the past when I did it before, and it is very worth it--you might check into it and pray about it and see if it may help you as well. It can help anyone with any kind of mental struggles, if they already have a healthy diet/are also doing the other things they need to help them on the physical side of the mental health.
Your a handsome dude my man ! Blessings from New Zealand !!! Your looking super healthy too. Thank you so very much for sharing this video with us all it is incredibly valuable and appreciated.
Pray more and keep confronting your fears where you can. Bit hypocritical coming from me, but I need to remind myself too! You'll have more good days to come
That's great to hear Noah. I hope to get a day like that one day. It's been 10 years since I felt truly okay and satisfied, rather than just getting by. I can picture that day in my mind and hope to feel it again.
Sometimes the hardest part of having lived and survived a deep clinical depression is believing in the good days when they come and that, that is reality. Happy for you Noah, keep staying strong in your recovery and i believe more and more days like that are coming your way.
brother i used to like this girl and she also liked me but i was socially anxious and was unable to talk to her and now shes gone and im regretting everyday and in constant stress what should i do
be intresting to take a full blood test on those special day were you feel like that and then take another full blood test on a day you aint feeling so good and just compare them just see what was higher and lower i think it would be really intresting
PS: To you discussing how you kept putting one foot forward and taking action even when you felt your worst: That is soooo hard to do when you're in that, you're much better at it than me, and I just wanted to let you know that by you doing that, you're helping other people (like me), so putting in that effort is for a purpose, just remember that if it ever gets hard to do
I've been watching your videos for a long time, feel like I have always related to you to a certain extent. Hope you never stop making videos like this.
Im going to give ketamine iv a try I think 🙈 I had some good days but i can feel that dpdr creeping in. I'm fighting a few things aswell one is chronic pain after a few spinal surgeries. Just keep up the good work I'm proud of you Nick please don't dissapoint me buddy hugs
Brooo I can relate so harddd to this, my brain has been doing this lately, but it's been for like 5 days now and it's starting to freak me out, lol, it has to be a mix of things, your brain recovering from alcohol (mine from pills) and our brains just being like this from being prone to anxiety and depression, maybe a little bit of bi polar we haven't addressed?
I liked you better with the beard. HAHAHA jkjk glad you had a dope day dude, I’m coming up on day 30 and I can’t wait for one of those. Goddamn brain fog dude. Good insight in this vid, thanks 🙏
I have dpdr now but due ti withrawal of sleep medication but people say the medication one is notcthe same as the weed but i saw your vid yours was also due to medication what u think of this and happy its over for you man
you dont even reply to your subscribers i messaged about bad mental health and seeking advice and you ignored me twice so dont be posting like your doing this for anyone but yourself all for money
