Addiction is giving up everything so you can have one thing. Sobriety is giving up one thing so you can have everything. You’re an amazing person Evan 💪🔥

[@idrinkmilk282]

Its a catchy and pleasant sounding little saying, but unfortunately it really isn't that simple at ALL for a lot of people. Infact, for the majority. Myself included. Sounds cool though. It also kinda sounds like something the mom of an addict would say to her addicted child after doing some research on addiction, thinking she has an understanding, and reading some inspirational quotes on google that she writes down and repeats, expecting it to suddenly snap their child out of it and for the seemingly perfect logic to swoop in and save the day 😅 Honestly it's the kind of thing MOST addicts will just roll their eyes at, because it really does just sound like a fluffy sugar coated nothing, coming from a good, well meaning place, but also from a place of misunderstanding and lack of actual experience. It definitely means well though, and i can see why somebody in the outside could think its a helpful thing to say haha.

[@JetBizzle]

When you’re an addict you can’t see the big picture because the drugs or alcohol won’t let you. It controls your thoughts and actions in ways you don’t understand and makes decisions for you to make sure you keep getting high or drunk. When your in the weeds of addiction an all in compassing metaphor or saying like this seems like and easy thing to say, but it’s the truth. What it doesn’t explain is all the life changing decisions you and you alone will have to make to break free. As I watched my wife of 20 years start with sniffing lines, then smoking crack, and then poke herself with needles as her addiction progressed, she gave up everything we worked our whole lives for including a relationship with our 2 children. My kids and I are living a normal sober life without her, we may not be rich, or have a bunch of material happiness, but we have everything we need, and life is amazing. I’d say my little saying is spot on, it’s all about perspective.

“I don’t like life a lot, but I’m freaking starting to love it” what a powerful way to end a statement about your newfound perspective. Bravo

[@AntiRep31]

I’ve been sober for a year and a half now. I have relapsed twice within my sobriety but it was only for like one night each time and spaced apart by like months at a time. I have a wife and three kids. I got a dui a year and a half ago where I crashed my car, I almost died and my kids almost lost their father. It took that and court ordered sobriety to sober me up. When I say I was an alcoholic I’m not just overselling it for a KZbin comment. I drank maybe two and a half pints of schnapps every day or every other day for a good five years of my life. I want you to know bro that seeing someone else, who is probably around my age, which I’m 26, going through alcoholism, struggling with depression and feeling lost. It helps me to cope with it as well and I’ve seen your first video on this subject and it has helped me man. More than you know. I hope you’re staying on that streak and you feel a lot better man. Your videos are really funny and original and alcohol is just no good for anyone. It causes more problems than it solves and it’s a burden when it’s abused like I did for a long time. Glad you’re doing well man. From Colorado much respect and support from a fellow alcoholic I guess? 👍Haha. Stay safe man and thank you for this. You don’t know how much it really helps others like me. Sorry for the novel. Haha

[@hoonaignachowaneha]

I've spent the last ten years in the haze of alcohol. Only recently have I started seeing success in sobriety. I quit my toxic job and am going back to school 13 years after finishing high school. I've tried quitting multiple times with no success but now I've finally gotten to a point where I just don't feel the desire for booze. Plus with going to school I've put myself in a position where I literally can't afford to go back to being drunk 6 nights a week. I'm so happy to see you are back and things are looking up Turtle!

Best of luck with school. I think it's still viable to take time off during school for an internship if that makes sense for your field and timeline, so I recommend that. Talk to the Professors about what the current state of that industry is, if they have any contacts, etc.

[@Veromoi4]

Hi! I’ve been sober for 22 months. I’m in AA. So incredibly happy for you! Keep going, keep it up🤍🤍🤍. Your nephew sounds like a wonderful little guy. My brother loves all his nephews so much too. Drinking really messed with me and since it’s a depressant, I was depressed for years with such a skewed view of the world. Having my child has helped me get sober, at first it was for him, now I’m sober for me because I truly love it. I’ve drank up all my drinks for life. Daily meditation has been life changing. Acceptance of life on life’s terms 🙏

[@sheabenton557]

26ish months over here and also in AA! I know it isn't for everyone, and I was the biggest skeptic, mostly because I'm an atheist. But a power greater than myself can be a group of alcoholics, or science, or nature, or human connection. And that's all that AA asks us to be willing to explore. Can't san enough about the program and what it's done for my life. Congrats on your sobriety!

[@FEBRIZIOtv]

Hey brother. I drank a bottle of vodka (almost a liter) nightly from age 21 to 28. then I snapped out of it due to harsh consequences with health and the law. I joined AA, stayed with it for 2 years. It was great. But it was more just a crutch of accountability for me. It was training wheels for me to stay sober. I haven’t drank in 6 years now. I’m almost 35 and my life has completely changed for the better. My mental state is stable and I’m sure about the choices I make. Keep at it man. Miss you.

[@WhiteySD]

This helped me a lot, man, so thank you. I'm going on 5 years sober now and like you I've struggled a lot with self-destructive behavior through my late teens and most of my 20s. I'm 32 now and stopped drinking at 28 after a couple of relapses and I know exactly what you mean by that "perspective shift" because I also had that. I was sick and tired of being sick and tired all the time, I was unhappy with my life, who I was becoming and ultimately where it was going to end up, either dead or completely lost in a bottle. I just wanted to say thank you, because for a long, long time i've struggled with the idea of "loving myself" and as a result, that has caused me to become incredibly hard on myself, because I've constantly tried to strive for perfection and would become upset with myself whenever I made a mistake. In an effort to remove the toxic traits that I thought I had, I failed to notice the positive ones I do have. I still have those shitty days, like everyone else, and your take on what "loving myself" means is spot on with how I need to also view those days and instead try and find constructive, positive ways to overcome them. Good luck with your sobriety friend, everyone is rooting for you, and if I can take a moment to share with those who are also struggling with alcohol abuse, please go visit r/stopdrinking on Reddit. It's full of incredibly supportive people who are all at various stages of their sobriety. Some have been sober for decades and have paved the way for those just starting the climb.

[@ashketchum4953]

Congrats Evan. You were always one of my favourite internet personalities. You gave me a lot of laughter in times of depression. I've been sober for 4 years now. I don't know your personal demons but if my experiences can help you, even just a little, then I'd be honoured. I wanted to say that my mantra was to "just be better than yesterday". Getting a healthy mentality is a long road and it can be easy to fall off when looking so far ahead but when you notice you're getting agitated or upset try to remove yourself or the problem and just focus on the mantra, yesterday you didn't drink so just be better than yesterday, don't let your efforts from yesterday be wasted today. I know it sounds stupid and simple but it honestly helped me, you helped me too. Thank you and much love.

[@thesprucemoose7905]

Mad respect for you man. Mad respect.

[@Michael-wp2bp]

The bit about your dad really resonated with me, I used to flat out hate my dad until one day I realized I was angry just like him and I know why I was angry because of him and that realisation made me hate him even more, until one day a thought process was triggered by a song i was listening to, I started to think that maybe he had a fucked up childhood too, im sure of it, I started to felt sorry for him, to feel proud of him too because there were times he would rise above these internal struggles and be a great dad for a little while. And just being able to look at him with compassion rather than hatred was a huge paradigm shift in not just how I felt about him but how I felt about myself too. Generational trauma is really something that needs to be spoken about more. It's great to see you back and on the mend man! Props to you for talking about this stuff

[@Gunstone827]

I discovered you and your ‘dying’ skit on Reddit two days ago and it’s the funniest thing I’ve seen in so long - there is nothing out of place in it! Listening to where you’ve been and where you want to be strikes a chord with me and I’m really happy you are seeing things differently and seeing the hope. Life is fucking hard man and I get that to certain people, feeling down is something they know how to handle, but like you, I find it hard to get on top of and can spiral. Reading Stoic philosophy is really helping to move away from being self-centred and seeing life around me. I wish you all the best moving forwards, x

[@boahnation9932]

Aaahhh buddy, yes!!! Yes yes yes. We're all so happy for you

[@Derpingtonshere]

Addiction is one of the hardest things I have dealt with in my life, I used drugs to cope with everything and to cover my feelings, to the point to where if I wasn't on drugs and started feeling emotions normally it would be amplified because I didn't know how to handle them, and it would push me further into addiction. You're right, you have to learn to love yourself, and let yourself get used to feeling these feelings. I have been sober now for 6 years, will I ever go back? god, I really hope not. You have been sober for 3 months, my man that is a quarter of a year you are doing awesome! Use your newborn nephew as your power to overcome anything you want. Anyways, I am truly glad to see you making content again, you are one of my favorite comedy skit people I have ever watched. Till next time, your moves are weak!

[@InspectorHA1]

Hey man, long time fan here. Thank you so much for doing this video, it’s so great to see you doing well and to hear about the amazing progress you’ve made. I don’t struggle with addiction personally, but my dad is an alcoholic so my life has been massively affected by it. Hearing your perspective and honesty helps me to empathise with him rather than get angry or upset, and I can’t tell you how much that helps. Also, thank you so much for all of the amazing and hilarious stuff you’ve put out over the years. I was having some really hard times myself recently and honestly, being able to watch and laugh at your videos genuinely helped me get through. You may never see this message, but if you do please know that you have had a brilliant and far-reaching impact on me (and I’m sure many others) and you are clearly greater than you know. I only hope you can continue on this path that you’re on now so everyone can continue to enjoy your humour and talent.

So stoked for you. I'm 2.5 years sober and it has absolutely changed my life, far beyond just not drinking. For me, a 12 step program works great for me, surrounding myself with other alcoholics and addicts who think like me, and talking about my addiction and mental health benefits my life and that of those around me. 12 step/AA/NA isn't for everyone, and there are tons of ways to get sober. There isn't a wrong way. My suggestion to anyone struggling with mental health issues or addiction, is to give yourself a real shot and have faith that there is a better way to live. If I hadn't had someone tell me the same thing, to just try something different, 3 years ago, I'd be dead.

[@miniharez]

Being an alcoholic myself, When you get sober, its having to actually “grow up” and learn how to deal with emotions in a healthy way. By drinking alcohol, instead of facing my issues head on, that stunted my personal growth for over 10 years. Im 3 years sober and my life has exponentially gotten better. It was like I had the emotional intelligence of a teenager still, so I had to work on leveling up pretty quick! I had to do the work, but being sober makes more manageable when you’re not drowning your brain in alcohol! keep up the good work, trust me, it will be tough at first, but its worth it, and if you keep doing recovery work it will get easier!

[@FEBRIZIOtv]

Been watching you for years. In a none creepy way. You make me smile and laugh. Get into a hobby to go do when you feel like drinking! 🎉congrats on sobriety since may! Keep it up! We’re in LA if you ever wanna go play handball or something 😅✌🏼🇺🇸stay strong turtle 🐢 🧿⛈️🤙rain doesn’t last forever. Smooth seas never made a skilled sailor. All that jazz. Keep it up. 🫵🏼🦾❤

This is the cutest thing ever when you said about your sis' child.

Love you, Evan! There are a lot of us living with anxiety. The best/worst is when everything has been going good for a while and then you get anxious about how maybe you'll get anxious soon, haha. Hang in there, dude. Love from Chicago.
