Anthony Green: If You’re Alive and Listening, There’s Hope

[@MonicatMeowvez]

I’ve been a fan of Anthony’s for 15 years and I have so much respect for this man. Anyone who is a true fan of Circa would say the same thing. I’m glad he is still with us now and I couldn’t help but to smile and cry while watching this podcast. He’s such a beautiful soul.

[@megtradamus]

Love you Monicat! ❤😉

[@Invertedworldx]

Ditto

[@adamhurt612]

Love all his work

[@Aaronlovesmusic970]

He is the best ❤️ the High and driving ep was always my favorite

[@banillaveans]

I love and respect Anthony so much, as well. I wish I would have found out about him and circa sooner but I’ve only been a fan for about a year. He really did change my life and his music is just so so amazing and therapeutic to say the least

[@MelissaWright-c8w]

I’ve been a fan of Anthony’s since Saosin. Seen Circa Survive play live many times, and met Anthony twice. Thank you for your incredible music and for your honesty. Big fan. Even bigger respect after watching this now.

[@Michelle-1]

I really respect him for saying he was so privileged financially. Seriously. I grew up without parents and homeless at 17 so I just had to slog through it. I was basically held hostage, raped, dragged through the mud with crazy exes. It was only when I got into my later 20s I realized how traumatized I was and what happened.

[@Ant-gu6vz]

I'm rooting for you ❤

[@willk4457]

I spent 3 decades of my life a wreck. Therapy didn't work. Medication didn't help. I was violent and out of control and unable to hold a job. Every doctor just said I had "depression" but finally at like 31-ish years old, my doctor at the time who I had recently started seeing asked me how I would feel about a bipolar diagnosis. I was scared, there was stigma. She said after everything, all the failures and shit not working, she was gonna treat me as bipolar type 2 going forward, and changed my medications up to match that. It was like night and day. Within a few weeks I was feeling so different from my usual self, I felt...functional. The rage subsided, the depression wasn't overwhelming anymore. I got a job, I started dating. I'm 37 years old now and married. And now it's 2024 and I'm sitting here crying listening to Anthony Green talk about this. A man who has been a top 3 vocalist to me for 20 years. Thanks for having him on. Also everyone talking about Circa or TSOAF or Saosin but I'm sitting here thinking about his work with Zolof The Rock And Roll Destroyer. Give me that sweet Plays Pretty For Baby

[@XxDaniel317xX]

Riding trains in november is my favorite zolof song but I don't think he's in it.

[@punkemoranger1]

Anthony green is the literal reason I'm still standing right now because of him i never gave up his music became old friends of mine that would help me through mania

[@Kid_Ying]

I started listening to Circa Surive and Anthony about 13 years ago and it was literally life changing. I haven't watched the whole thing yet, but I wanted to show my love, especially after hearing about whatever's going on that caused him to cancel his latest tour with Circa. I've seen them like six times at this point and I'll never forget seeing his kids next to the stage with their big ear muffs to protect them from the sound. That little thing says so much about who he is as a man and a father. I don't believe in God but God bless all the same.

[@rocioiribe5841]

Whoa, the crossever i never would imagine happen. Love Anthony's music.

Ikr?

I never heard of Anthony Green B4 but this short hour has intrigued me to want to know more..his transparency is refreshing! please have him on again

[@MrCoconutcat]

This is also my first time hearing about him

[@f0kxi]

He’s a legend in modern alternative music, he inspired every musician friend I have, and I have a lot. He’s my hero

[@MrCoconutcat]

@@f0kxi that's totally awesome

[@herefortheshrimp1469]

I've had the extreme pleasure of meeting him several time over the past decade and he has been the kindest and warmest human being every single time. Just an absolute angel.

[@MrCoconutcat]

@Sara Fox excellent chemistry set

[@Palentir]

One of my top 10 people alive. I love this guy, he is a true poet. I listen to him every day and it’s hard to find a lot of interviews of Anthony that really show his mind and soul. Thanks for Opening up Anthony

[@paulahudson9320]

My daughter who is no longer with us had schizo-affective disorder and her daughter who lives with me has bipolar2. I love all the episodes it this one was particularly meaningful for me. Thank you both and thank Anthony as well for talking so openly about his life

[@Unanythang]

I'm sorry for your loss.

[@melancholissa]

Mayim, from the bottom of my heart : thank you for explaining so precisely what bipolar disorder is. I have a step-brother who has bipolar disorder and is always misunderstood and judged. I love your podcast!!

[@therealteal620]

How is it possible for this man to look so good? Jesus, he turned out great.

[@Colltir]

I keep trying to find the right words to explain how this made me feel, but they're evading me. So much here. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your journeys.

[@Lauren-ey7rp]

The fact that he can write being in a higher state of consciousness & it mean so much more to him than being on the other side from a creative aspect; truly inspiring.

[@barbarabornholdt2854]

This episode is everything someone diagnosed as bipolar needs to hear. I am one of those fortunate souls to be diagnosed as bipolar and Borderline personality, making me one of those people who experience everything in such a heightened way I feel I am never "stable". One day at a time is perfection for finding those moments of stability that give one hope.

[@nicholemarinaccio9747]

I love hearing him sing and perform live, and listening to him speak and explain things in such an articulated manner was WONDERFUL. What a person!

[@little-w3irdo]

Anthony is & always will be someone I love & admire... not just because of music, but for the mind & heart of someone beautiful on the inside &not afraid to share the ugliness of addiction & mental health & brave enough to share it. I needed to hear this podcast more than I even knew. - a safe camp sister. 又

[@TheHerecomesmary]

I was watching this again and realized I wanted to share how I feel every time I listen to this man speaking. Anthony Green creates the most honest, hopeful, meaningful songs I've ever heard. His work kept me company during the darkest times of my life: grieving my best friend, recovering from attempts and spending two months in a psychiatric ICU. I wasn't alone because I had his music with me, and everytime I heard "you'll be fine" was like having a conversation with a friends that understood the twists of my mind. I hope one day watch him perform live, it's a huge dream. Anthony, if you ever read this, know that you'll forever be my favorite white man. Thank you for sharing you with us.

[@roxannetracy2931]

As each Tuesday morning arrives, and I continue to live in isolation, this Podcast really lightens my soul while igniting cognition. Thank you lovelies!

What a pleasant collision of my illness, my childhood, and my musical obsession

[@JohnSmith-th7lx]

Hearing Mayim say the names of the bands, especially The Sound of Animals Fighting, feels surreal. It's like cultures colliding.

[@SR98889]

I’ve been a fan of Anthony for 20 years. I got through high school with Saosin and still listen to his music. We are glad you are still with us, and yes your music is still relevant! ♥️

[@el_8951]

Same!! But good lord I’m old 😑

[@Jay-xh9dl]

Same, fan since Translating The Name EP was released in June, 2003. 19 year anniversary in 2 months!

[@Aaronlovesmusic970]

36:07 literally how i felt about Bert McCracken, Anthony Green, Gerard Way watching them be crazy and drunk as a kid and teen and i almost found mystery in that lifestyle than went to play in my own bands and burn bridges like wildfires, it's just kind of crazy how Anthony felt the same way about the idolss he grew up with this podcast is amazing wow im in the struggle but this makes me actually want to get help thanks for this podcast its definitely helping me a ton right now

[@DarrenBunt]

Finally saw Anthony Green live this past year and it was the most surreal experience. I feel blessed to have come across his music. And so glad they talked about weed too! Tired of hearing how it does nothing bad. Also, hearing about his financial situation was alleviating.

[@nataliesirota2611]

AWESOME! Thank you to Anthony for opening up about Bipolar and sharing so honestly. I LOVE the idea that we should make mental health education mandatory in our schools! Let's PLEASE teach our kids how to connect, deal with ourselves, relationships, and life! Great episode!

[@MrCoconutcat]

We do need to know about this stuff at an earlier age to know how to recognize it and find all of the solutions and there will be more forgiveness, patience and understanding amongst each other

[@leahlove502]

ANTHONY GREEN????? ♥️ This was unexpected!!! ♥️

[@HeyChicagoWhattaSay]

UNEXPECTED LEGEND ON THE PROGRAM!!!

[@chris_822]

Anthony would be a fantastic therapist or social worker if he wasn't an artist. I have had a few interactions with him and he seems like such a great guy. I'm a fan of his music like a lot of the commenters, but I am also a fan of him the person based on what I've seen. Thank you for what you do with your creativity Anthony. It helps a lot of people.

[@katiearpino1142]

As a fan of you both and a loyal subscriber, yes I've watched every episode since the beginning, I understand the dynamic of you Mayim and Jonathan, although while I understand it I do feel a little put out by how sometimes you Mayim speak to Jonathan, he is irreplaceable and please honor the beautiful gift you are both giving the world as the 2 of you together on the podcast THANK YOU FOR YOUR PODCAST BOTH OF YOU

[@smarie431]

Agree well said

[@el_8951]

I agree, she’s kinda derailing on the flow of the conversation when she interjects over Johnathan or a guest. She’s pretty bold and i dig that but it’s also suddenly breaking the moment when she does that

[@jordanb.1477]

Anthony seems like a genuinely great person. He loves life and realizes there are challenges, but he keeps on going and inspiring others along the way. What a guy.

[@davidtorres4543]

Listen to circa survive! His lyrics and their music is magic

[@senseofwonder4734]

It is so great to FINALLY hear someone state how fortunate they have been to have financial resources, which many people, actually MOST people, do not. Mental health care is difficult to find and tremendously expensive.

[@chazmann87]

God bless you, Anthony Green. I've grown up listening to your music and have been lucky enough to meet you in person a handful of times. You were always the kindest and sweetest human being to me. I've struggled with substance abuse and hearing you speak on such a topic has been eye opening. I feel closer to your music now more than ever. Much love, Anthony. Peace!

[@laurenjade11]

I LOVE and appreciate how outspoken Anthony Green has always been about struggles he has faced. ꓃ SAFE CAMP FAM! Great interview with Mayim!

[@bradfoster8146]

I've been a huge fan of Anthony's since '02/'03 when he initially in Saosin and when their debut EP came out. I've been lucky enough to meet him, and he's such a sweet and nice dude. Him and his music has helped me through so much stuff. Loved this conversation

[@dokidokimkat9247]

I can't even express how excited I am for this episode! I never thought one of my favorite artists would collaborate with one of my favorite mental health advocates! I saw Circa Survive live in MN. It was an amazing show. I keep the cards they threw off the stage in my wallet. It was such an amazing show!

[@xxfadedlillyxx]

I love this interview ! Anthony is one of my all time favorite people . A truly beautiful person inside and out

[@kirstierowland6721]

I have been a fan of Circa Survive for over a decade now. Hearing this made me feel like oh yeah this all makes sense now. I myself struggle with the same mental health diagnosis- diagnosed after already being an avid Anthony Green lisenter. His music got me through a lot of dark times and not even knowing we share the same struggles. This was beautiful. You all are beautiful. ANTHONY I love you. Thanks for this. I feel like this didn't make grammatical sense but I'm all up in my feelings right now and can't be eloquent and articulate. Love and light.

[@kathylaub941]

If I could “like” this 10,000 times, I would! Ever time I think you couldn’t have a better, more relevant show, you do it.

[@heathercade9645]

I've been patiently waiting for a guest who was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and I was NOT disappointed. I was diagnosed 25 years ago, and have had the hills and valleys of function that go along with that. I was very fortunate to have landed on the right medication fresh out of the gate, and I still take it, but I realise not everyone is so fortunate. Anthony Green, whom I was not aware of prior to this, was such an interesting guest. His honesty about just being okay with trying to be better, and trying to be mindfulof his mania cues, and be as mentally healthy as he can be, was refreshing. I also really appreciated how he recognizes how fortunate, and privileged he was growing up, and that others are not. He was quick to turn down the praise, even though he was worthy of it. This was such a meaningful conversation, and I saw a lot of myself in the sentiments that were expressed by all of you. Thank you so much.

[@Childofbhaal]

You should definitely check his music out. He has solo stuff and also his main band Circa Survive. They’re both amazing

[@nofxninjaa]

Anthony has a popular song with those words you started with! “I’ve been patiently waiting…” I honestly thought you were referencing it until you said you hadn’t heard of him. Check it out if you’re interested. It’s called Dear Child.

[@lacyevans7324]

This was such a pleasant surprise for me this morning!!! Around the time that I was diagnosed with bipolar 2, Saosin was one of my favorite bands and this just gives me all of the nostalgic feels. ❤️ Thank you Mayim and thank you Anthony Green!!!😭❤️❤️❤️

[@elisatolle4931]

I really needed that this morning . I’m on the spectrum and not diagnosed bi-polar but deeply identify with this talk . It’s hard . One day at a time .

[@catherinepeck3968]

Just wanted to say "Congratulations" for landing the Jeopardy! hosting position for the next 15 episodes, as well as the specialty hosting. If I were a contestant, I would like a host just like you -- calm, extremely knowledgeable and friendly, but not "overly chatty" and not making the show all about you like some of the other guest hosts are prone to do. Best wishes!

[@m_brokenleg]

Just my feeling!!!

[@marisamartinezolivera]

Any creativity process has lots and frequent “maniac” episodes, followed or not (usually yes) by “depressive” or “down” ones. When your mind is speedy going, you feel a mix of workalcoholism and fear to loose “the moment”. You feel yourself in these moments like a god, goddess in my case. It’s the hardest “drug-without-drugs” episode. Followed by a depressive void. This architect’s word. It means we’re bipolar? No. But I think all cretive persons are more or less in the spectrum…Thank you Jonathan and Mayim for another great Tuesday! 🙏🏽💜Missing Bevisodes though. And I believe she has a lot to say about this particular one!

[@vlmellody51]

I had a nonfiction book called "Touched with Fire", which covered creative people throughout history who had bipolar disorder. My son is bipolar 1 and was completely psychotic during his adolescence (he's fine now). That tome became a very helpful resource for me, because it showed me how to navigate that world in talking to his total bastard of a psychiatrist.

[@marisamartinezolivera]

@@vlmellody51 I was never implying all creative people are bipolar, but that a kind of “in the spectrum” is always needed. And yes, not only Van Gogh was bipolar. Geniusess and bipolar have a thin line in beteween.

[@vlmellody51]

@@marisamartinezolivera I'm a genius and I have known many people who are also geniuses and among us, only my son has bipolar disorder. The mad genius/scientist trope came about thanks to Albert Einstein, who was bipolar and had that wild hair.

[@el_8951]

Being in the music business I’ve met a lot of those workaholic artists who deep dive in and go into a depressive or low point afterwards because they’ve mentally drained themselves too long and need a break. Chemically this makes sense since after you’re done there’s not a whole lot of endorphins and dopamine, but for bi-polar folks it can be a marathon and so much so that it’s beyond unhealthy but more life or death. I’m bi-polar II and I’ve gotten a pretty good gauge on who might be going through the cycles based on where they’re at on a project given the time they’ve spent on working on it. For example, let’s say you’ve got two painters (a/b), both are tasked to complete 6 pieces of really great large format paintings. Both start and finish the first piece of work and feel good enough and still in a creative mode to start and finish another piece. Both painters finish, but (a) takes a break for a day or two then gets back into it, while (b) doesn’t take a break and immediately starts another piece. Now (a) starts their third piece while (b) is finishing their third, then (b) starts their fourth piece. Painter (a) finishes their third and takes a break for a couple days while (b) is still working on their fourth piece. When painter (a) starts their fourth piece, painter (b) is only 3/4 of the way through their fourth. When painter (a) finishes their fourth piece, painter (b) is midway starting their fifth piece, so painter (a) takes a break for a week this time. When painter (a) starts their fifth piece, painter (b) is almost done with their their fifth then starts their sixth piece. Painter (a) finishes their fifth piece, takes a couple days break then starts on their sixth while painter (b) is only 1/2 way done. Painter (a) finishes their sixth piece while painter (b) hasn’t finished theirs. If you’ve read through all of that and it the painter analogy makes sense to you, thank you for reading all of that. If it doesn’t make sense to you, that’s good! That means you don’t have to worry about that because it really shouldn’t make sense, but it does when you’re bi-polar. Maybe 6 paintings isn’t a healthy load to take on anyway in what’s supposed to be a short period of time, but imagine not taking a break through all of that and having your pace keep slowing down till you can function while all of those fleeting thoughts are still constantly flowing through your brain but are now in a feedback loop. That’s what it feels like to be bi-polar.

My favorite Proverb A Wise man holds back untill later and a Fool utters all his mind. This is a mantra for me . I used to be hell bent on winning arguments and being right . When I embraced forgiveness for everyone and everything especially myself that need went away .Forgiveness is a choice of I choose forgiveness daily. I realized that if I waited till I felt like it , it may never happen. I realized that not everything that comes to mind needs come come out of my mouth . I also understand that if I get pissed there's a chemical reaction that last apox 90 seconds. and if I breath through and wait rather than react I can respond with Wisdom . This is a conscious decision I make daily to respond not react

I have been diagnosed and treated for bi-polar for over 27 years. My second pregnancy drove me to seek treatment. I barely survived the "crash" after the first.

[@the_devilboy666]

@27:30 the discussion about dopamine- People with bipolar and addiction are more likely to have a genetic mutation in the MTHFR gene, which causes dopamine deficiencies. Dopamine deficiencies make people seek out high dopamine activities to compensate. It’s super common and is thought to affect 20-50% of the general population. Best thing I did was get a genetic test, and adjust diet/supplementation to correct deficiencies (specifically vitamin b9 and folate/methylfolate) which affect dopamine production

Listening to Anthony talk about his experiences are very eye opening and relatable. The only thing I didn't like was the comment about having great things but not being able to be depressed. Throughout life, there have been times where I felt like I should be happy for the things I have worked for but I still felt completely miserable. For those who don't understand, I am happy for you and I promise I don't mean that sarcastically. However, if you do understand, I hope you fight for your happiness every day. As long as you don't hurt yourself or others.

This was like watching a boy version of myself describe my adolescent and teen years, not just similar but word for word. I have never in all my life had this happen. Asthma, always sick with repository infections or bronchitis, compulsive over eating, no friends at school got picked on when I actually went.... drugs and alcohol to fit in and have "friends". This is the first I have ever heard of Anthony but I am glad to ran across this so Thank you!

[@bobbiek1976]

Thank You! I appreciate the “real ness” much love for everyone! Not everyone is created equal. I Love You All!

Yay. Breakdown on mental illness. Bipolar. My mother committed suicide due to her illness. I fight stigma as a Mental Health Professional. I, too have GAD and Bipolar. THIS is my person!

Anthony fucking Green. My eyes may be leaking a bit and I'm just starting this video. This guy has done so much for me.

[@karlamalpica2211]

Amazing, I'm crying, thank you for sharing and being so sincere. I really needed to hear this.

Anthony and Circa as a whole straight up saved my life through all the bad shit I was going though at that time of my life.much love to all the safecamp fam.

Awesome video...SO much that I can relate with. One thing that it seems to me now days is that...getting counselling now days has almost become for the financial elite. I would LOVE to go to counselling and yet there is NO way that I can afford it; even on a "sliding scale" fee...way beyond my ability to afford.

I hope we get a future episode on BPD. Most I’ve heard from the podcast world has fed into the hurtful stigmas around us and it’s really been troubling for me

[@The_Alexandra_B]

I love this man so much. Thanks for having him on!

[@kaylynkelley1883]

You have to feel all your emotions to truly understand yourself. That includes the negative ones. Question them, learn about them, then you can resolve them. This I'll set us free. Do not fight it, do not ignore it. It's going to hurt, it's supposed to, this is apart of being human. Do not be afraid. This is why life is not & cannot be all about being positive all the time. It's unrealistic. We will never truly grow or be able to handle stressful situations. It will only make it worse.
