First found your channel when I was around 18 and last month I turned 26. Every few months or years I’ll come across one of your videos or I’ll look up your channel to see how you are. We both fight similar battles. It’s really great to see you stronger than ever and continue to inspire others. God bless man you should be proud of yourself. Happy late birthday!

Naked- Great words brother. I’ve followed your content off and on since 2018. I’m 37 myself, had my first son 1.5yrs ago and am still struggling with sobriety from alcohol, even being on a felony dwi probation. I really relate to your journey and it was inspiring to hear your words today. I think that’s what I may have needed to finally push through and commit to doing 12 step work and truly getting sober, facing life on its terms, not mine.

Naked - I have struggled with depression. Recently learned it may be due to my ADHD which might explain why typical approaches to depression have not worked. I avoid relationships due to this. It would be interesting for you to interview your wife about her experience.

Hey great job! I am turning 58 soon and have travelled a mostly alcohol life which was social and manageable until my 49s where it progressed to drinking alone looking to escape the monotony of life I have always felt. I am now 16 days sober and am doing ok. I understand what you mean by starting to see the world for what it truly is. Not sure about you but I take antidepressants and sometimes think I should stop them to get a real feel for life without any mental alterations. Not sure if I could do it. Anyway, I went to University at 35 and got an honors BA and teachers college where I found my calling. You can do whatever you want if you want to do it. I know you know that already I suppose. You are now living a clean life - awesome

Nekkit! I really appreciate your honesty and vulnerability, Noah. I'm not in recovery (lifelong teetotal ftw), but I grew up around the various Anonymous groups, AA in particular. I decided when I was 11 that I would never let the addiction demon get hold of me, and 20 years on, I've been successful. I'm extremely grateful that I was able to learn the importance of developing healthier coping mechanisms early on. It's a super power, really. I'm happy that you've always gotten back on the sobriety wagon, and I'm grateful that you're chronicling your journey. It's invaluable for people who might be struggling.

I don’t take that wrong at all. Something to be mindful is that people are only seeing little 10 to 15 minute clips of me throughout my life. Not to mention they are the specific things I wish to share. I often dive into melancholy introspection and open up about personal difficulties. What I have never found a rhythm for, is capturing all of the lighthearted, mellow jovial, even goofy moments of my life, which 210 to occupied great many hours of my day right now in sobriety. I think I can have hard days for sure. I believe myself very capable of sadness and anxiety still. I sincerely don’t believe I’m depressed or anxious on a clinical level. I just don’t match the symptoms.

If you want to study something yes psychology is absolutely worth it. At about your age I obtained a degree it didn't prevent me from relapse and I still abuse alcohol, but without it it would have been much worse and I might be dead now. Best investment of my life! Plus if you get in control of your problems later in life you could become an addiction counselor.

Keep up the good work of healing your traumas, improving your mental health work on your fears and keep on going. It will get easier. Being vunurable is fine. Work on the fear of inauthenticity. Study it, work at it, discover where it began, heal it, hug it, problem solve it, and keep on working on it. Youre closer to 40 and away from 30. And what is the fear? Whats wrong with that? Fear of self destruction and going to your old ways? Well you have more control than you think. Yes sometimes youll feel more out of control but thats emotional reasoning. A cognitive distortion. Work on WHY you started drinking. Then if you work on that too youll be feeling better and more in control. Imagine a smoker starting due to anxiety and stress and appearing cool to others or kill boredom. Would you say that that smoker will feel vunurable if he works his anxiety his self esteem works on his "wanting to appear cool to others" and stress issues and so on, or not? I bet you he will feel better, more control, more stuff. Your brain will obviously keep on fighting you to tell you "hey your shield you gave me where is it" (the alcohol) cause thats what you taught it. Overcoming addiction then and maintaining sobriety is not just the substance use but also the psychological dependence of it. And you can do it! It will make things easier! Ofc its not an easy ride or thing. Obviously its hard. But dont ponder on the negatives "why me whats wrong with me what is this what is that?" Relax the answers will come to you. You can and will do it. And give credit to yourself. You actually did it! Very very hard! You deserve applause! But keep on working on it. Find out whats that "angst of existance" for you. Theres work to be done there and if you do that work youll feel better! Youre amazing by the way. Lastly. As you go your reflections and self confidence on your actions and descisions and trust in yourself will grow! But you need to keep on working on it. It will get better

If you treat alcohol like the poison that it really is, then it will become allot easier to stay sober. I also enjoy telling people that I don't drink alcohol and watch their reaction..
@hhussst
@hhussst 8 месяцев назад
How does alcohol taste? sweet, bitter or sour. why many people try so hard to get rid of alcohol. What reactions do you get after drinking alcohol? Honestly, I have never drank alcohol. Even though I was curious about the taste and effects after drinking alcohol, I was afraid to try it because I had heard so many negative things about alcohol.

This may be a random question but have you tried any non-alcoholic beers? I did dry January and I've tried not athletic non-alcoholic beer and honestly was such a game changer for myself but I don't know where that fits for triggers for some people
@bignoknow
@bignoknow 8 месяцев назад
I tried them many years ago. I personally don’t see the point. Never thought beer tasted particularly good. I drank for the effect exclusively. I don’t think it’s a good idea for me to create a potential trigger. That said everyone has their own journey and I’m sure it’s a great alternative for some people.

What would you consider an alchoholic ?
@bignoknow
@bignoknow 8 месяцев назад
For me, it’s someone who can’t stop drinking or thinking about drinking (or not drinking for that matter), even when they want to or ought to. This is by no means a comprehensive breakdown of what I think it means to be an alcoholic. But I do think this encapsulates my personal experience. I know some people who were so physically dependent that they were drinking around the clock who thought they were alcoholics and got sober. I also know some people who are drinking once a week, but once they started drinking, they couldn’t control how much they drink, and even though they didn’t drink for the rest of the week, they were inundated with obsession about drinking and not drinking all the same. They deemed themselves alcoholic and got sober. To that degree I believe it’s a personal decision. Some people are simply problem, drinkers, who at the first sign of major consequence, and stop their drinking and move on with their lives. That’s never been my story.

@bignoknow 8 месяцев назад
While I’m not a huge fan of your style of communication, I was expecting that this video would trigger some people. Not sure what constitutes obsession nor can I be sure what parts of my psychology make it interesting for me personally to post videos like this. I’m interested to learn more about though. I want to share an express myself and my physicality, clearly, but I also want to do it healthy way in general that honors this part of me but also is anchored in Positivity and healthy behavior. If you’re comfortable, being honest, what about a thumbnail like the one for this video led you to click on the video to then leave a comment fueled by frustration? What about me being shirtless for example is upsetting for you? I promise I’m not asking in a passive aggressive way. I think human beings are very interesting. And I’ve always been interested in comments like yours because I can’t personally relate to them.
@Catlady12341
@Catlady12341 8 месяцев назад
I’m confused why you can’t personally relate/ appreciate my comments. I started watching your videos on alcoholism and depression because I have addiction in my family and they helped…as I said…You had great videos…. If you are honest May I ask why you being shirtless/ naked is necessary? We all can use suggestions…. Save the nakedness to only fans maybe? 🤷‍♀️ it’s just weird.

I hear you. not being able to relate part simply refers to leaving negatively charge comments on other peoples videos. I’ve never done that as all. I don’t judge it though. It’s a public platform. Glad for any interaction. You did nothing wrong. I did nothing wrong. It’s all good. the being certainly wasn’t necessary but it’s something I wanted to do and so I did. I knew it would promote some interesting conversations and some good engagement, which I did once because I believed in the content of this video. Being a RU-vidr for as long as I’ve been one is just an interesting experience. You’ll have to give me the assumption of Goodwill that there was nothing malicious in my head about it. Anyway, have a good rest of your day.
