As someone who has had crippling anxiety in the past. Reading about Joey Votto and his struggles and how open players like him and Zack Greinke are really helped me feel normal.

[@warlordofbritannia]

My two favorites for that reason-Greinke gave me some small sense of reassurance as a teenager when I read about his struggles (this was during his Cy Young year. Votto’s anxiety issues only came out a year or two later).

[@derrickrr5516]

I still don’t know if I even fully understand the difference between anxiety and stress. If I’m all tense because I know my neighbor’s dog is once again going to bark all night, that’d be anxiety, right? But if I’m trying to finish a giant dog catapult before dark and it looks like I won’t make it, that’s stress, right?

[@ASMRDoodlez]

@@derrickrr5516 Funny comment. 😄 As for the difference, I'm not completely sure what stress is defined as, but anxiety seems to be an unnecessary or excessive activation of the fight or flight response. I've had a few anxiety attacks and they are typically characterized by uncontrollable stomach butterflies, shaking, hyperventilating, and/or fast heartrate.

[@derrickrr5516]

@@ASMRDoodlez Yeah I’ve had two of those, both of them 17 years ago when I was 27. I called them panic attacks. Not good.

I actually met Joey Votto when I was working in the mall. At first, he was very quiet and had this calming demeanor of minding his own business, like every other professional athlete that walks in and out. Completely understandable!! I approached him if he needed any help like any other store employee attending every customer. I just quickly said that I’m a big fan of his but out of respect, I’ll leave you alone so you can be in and out. He actually appreciated that I recognized him under the mask (Covid times) and actually gave me the time of day which was really cool. He also offered a picture which I was not expecting but I did not pass him up on it. He wished me well in school and I wished him well on this upcoming season. All in all, not just a great ball player but an awesome, genuine person. I’m not even a Reds fan but I will always cheer him on. Glad to see that this video is showing every casual baseball fan who Joey Votto is outside of the baseball field. He actually is as genuine as advertised.

He's such a complex and talented human being. I always loved that he isn't afraid to show emotion in all its forms.

Tempers, passion, weirdness....whatever it is - don't be afraid to show it. He's also really intelligent, which has translated into longevity. Constantly adapting to age and other conditions - I've always looked at him as a role model in baseball and outside of it.

[@MrPancake1225ayylmao]

Only a quarter of the way through the vid, so I figured I'd hit the comments with my Votto story during the ad break. My family has enjoyed going to a different MLB stadium every year. So far I've seen nearly 20 of them. Of course the one's out west, (especially for a Reds fan), are kind of a big deal for us. Dodger Stadium being the Holy Grail. We finally made it out there the year my big brother graduated high school. Of course my family got tickets for when the Reds made a trip out west. Not usual for us, so it was a bit of a treat to see our boys in a stadium so coveted to us. We got there early in the pregame, nearly kicked out for pregaming the parking lot, (this was right after that poor Giants fan got beat to death in the parking lot, so I can understand Dodgers security being a bit apprehensive about fans partying out there), and we're right behind the Reds dugout, first base line for some reason at Dodger Stadium. I'm not an autograph hound and never have been. In fact, I find fuckers praying for autographs all game to be particularly annoying, (looking at you San Diego fans), but it was during warm-ups and who else but Joey comes strolling up to the end of the dugout. This was in a particular part of Joey's career when he really wasn't too crazy about signings before games, or really ever for that matter. My parents encouraged me to head down there so I dragged my older brother down there for a bit of muscle. Joey is absolutely mobbed by Dodgers fans, and Giants fans ironically enough, to have him sign cards and random shit they thought would be valuable. Of course some boys from the Midwest aren't gonna muscle our way through a crowd like that. So all looked at Joey and said, "Mr. Votto, we loved you with the Dragons, (our loyal A ball affiliate with the Reds), It's a pleasure to see you out West." Joey reached his lumbering arm over the entire crowd of people and reaches for my hat, signs it, tosses it over to me, and looks at me and points to my brother. I immediately grabbed my brother's hat off his damn head and tossed it to him. After those two autographs, Joey heads back into the dugout and leaves me and my brother absolutely speechless. Still to this very day I can't believe what a stand-up guy Joey is. This was before he started to let his goofier side show and approaching him for most people was rightfully rather intimidating. Joey went out of his way to make our game special for a few local fans from back in his early days who cherished his time in our little city. I'll never forget that. Probably the most magical baseball experience of my entire life. What a funny sport it can be. Anyways, that's my blog post. I'll really miss the day that Joey isn't playing that corner. I remember the likes of Scott Hatteberg out there. But having a living legend as your first baseman and watching him every step of the way was something really special. You'll never see another Red like him again. Here's to the HOF Joey, you earned it.

The Reds are my favorite team and Votto is one of my favorite players of all time. His interviews with Jim Day are hilarious and insightful. I think he is a 1st ballot HOF. The fact he is always experimenting with different ways to improve his game in the off-season says it all. The reason he took breakdancing lessons this past off-season was to improve his overall balance when on the field. He is a legend who carved out his own path in the MLB.

Votto one of the best to ever do it and probably had the most fun while doing it. I love this man. Never fails to make me laugh.

After finding my dad on the floor after having a massive stroke and keeping him alive until the paramedics showed up a month later I went through the exact same thing as Votto. I had no clue why I was feeling the way I was…I thought I was having heart issues but then I’d go to the hospital and they’ll find nothing. I too thought I was going insane but we eventually figured out it was panic attacks brought on by anxiety and subconsciously I probably knew my pops didn’t have long after that incident which he did pass a couple months later because of the after effects of that stroke. So after finding out about Votto going through the same thing it helped me make mental sense of everything, let me know I wasn’t going crazy and I now root for the dude.

Anxiety attacks are no joke. I experienced a YEAR of them, and every attack I had I at least partially thought I might have a heart attack. This also happened shortly after my father passed. I feel a bond with this dude and I like his approach to life and sense of humor.

He has Canadian nice, and maybe hid dad's temper rubbed off, and I remember when they mentioned he passed away, I could more closely see what was happening. I lost my father after a long illness, even as a family we knew it was coming, didn't stop the mild depression that happened for me after his passing. As a Reds fan, I've always respected him for being his own true self, nice but quirky, which can take years to find your own style, and something that his father is proud. Thanks.

You know it a good day when this man uploads🫶🫶

Votto telling a fan that he used to be thin is savage 💀💀💀

[@andrewcreelman7350]

As a Cubs fan, this dude is still one of my favorite players, no matter how much he hates the Cubs

"Is it a nipple thing?" is classic. I just became a fan of Joey Votto

[@The__Outlaw]

@ 4:20 That's a cool drill ! Follow the ball , as "they" say "keep your eye on the ball" Get use to the speed.

[@TheCoolreaper44]

The fans love Votto because he's a real guy. He wears his emotions on his sleeves, and that makes him endearing

Hey man I just want you to know even though Jared and Dallas didn’t understand your Anthony Fantano reference on the podcast last week I appreciated it

[@superklondoentertainmentsy4061]

I got to see his 2,000th hit. It will always amaze me how he batted twice in the 8th inning. I thought that I would not get to see it!

[@Jrush2000]

I was there for the ejection in 2021. It was pretty weird seeing a guy like that getting ejected, he is usually such a class act.
