Dan Does The Impulsivity Test With The Cocaine Hypnotist

Dan hands the reins over to addiction specialist Elliot Wald in this episode. They delve into the changes in Dan's social circle, his mental resilience strategies like boxing, and how Dan's trust had to be rebuilt with his wife Shelley. Elliot administers an impulsivity test to Dan, scoring him at a sky-high 92! They also discuss why addiction is a form of "escapism," the importance of remembering your worst moments, and how to view compulsion versus repulsion.

Combining humour with stories and issues which both Daniel and the audience will have experienced, whether first hand or through someone they know. Offering an environment for people to openly discuss their struggles was Daniel's main focus behind starting the podcast, as well as his M.A.T.E group; so now he also brings it to the stage and to the public.
What can people expect at the live podcast:
Join Daniel at Menace II Sobriety Live, as he discusses all things sobriety, ADHD, mental health and more. The podcastwill be recorded live with a special guest, including audience interaction and finishing with an open Q&A.
Daniel will not only be discussing sobriety, but everything life throws at us, and he would love for you to join him. Bring your tissues and your sense of humour, because we have no idea what topics will be discussed, but whatever the conversation, it'll be a supportive environment and may contain some dad jokes.
Story behind the podcast:
The Menace II Sobriety podcast was set up after Daniel faced his own battles with sobriety, ADHD, mental health and certain life scenarios. He set up a M.A.T.E group on Facebook, so that men could support men in an accessible, open and friendly environment. Upon seeing the responses from men around the world to some of the posts on the group, Daniel was blown away by the kindness and support of strangers. This led him to create the podcast, inviting a range of guests from different backgrounds, sharing his own personal experiences & struggles; and now, opening up to the public in a live environment, where people can come along and watch in-person, or get involved in the audience interaction.

138 Days clean and sober today and finally living and not existing ❤

[@Quartzone6145]

Well done

[@WatchYOBackBrah]

How many days did it take for you to feel good and enjoy being alive when you wake up? Is it 30 days? 60? 14? Curious

[@menacetosobrietypodcast]

Well done mate, what an achievement!

[@jonconner764]

Hi Dan , Almost 300 days ago I came across your podcast on KZbin and found information regarding going to a CA meeting. I will be forever grateful for you starting these podcasts as I have been sober ever since. My life has changed dramatically and I just want to say thank you. I'm an ex squaddie and struggled to adapt to life after the army. I almost lost everything, but thanks to hearing you for that first time I got the courage to attend a CA. Thank you for the amazing work mate , I wish you all the best and will be forever grateful. JC x

[@ElliottWald]

Awesome my friend

[@JayloT93]

Score of 78 I guess thats pretty impulsive but i already knew that haha 111 days sober now. Weird experience but feeling great (just for today anyway) Some wise old people in them AA meetings and its helped me this time round. In and Out with this journey and my sobriety was always for someone else and never for me. These 100 days feel different because its for me this time round. Thanks for all you're doing Dan, great format with you being interviewed this time. Thank you. Big respect.

[@Rob-ph1hk]

Thanks Dan and Elliot! Another great podcast to listen to on a Friday night instead of going out drinking

[@ElliottWald]

Thank you m8

[@menacetosobrietypodcast]

Thank you mate!

[@Fenetikmusic]

Dan, I think a podcast we'd all like to see, if with one of your pals that you used to get on it with back in the day and getting their view on how things have changed from their side. I know you did with Kirk, but with one of your accepting 'day ones' would be sick. Still loving the podcast mate, cheers

[@EJWEST333]

Respect lads this was brilliant

[@charliewaterman7268]

I have been finding your videos so helpful and can relate to so much. Thank you as its helping me daily with my problems beyond just the drink and drugs. I found C.A and have learnt so much but nice to hear things in a different point of view. God bless

Great show Dan. You’re helping so many people I reckon. Just wondered where’s Kirk been? Is he ok and coming back? Sorry if you’re sick of answering this btw.

[@menacetosobrietypodcast]

Thank you mate, really appreciate that! Kirk just decided not to take part in it anymore.

[@blagger7664]

Another great show, I’m 7 months clean, miracle, I scored 81

[@ElliottWald]

81 is defo very impulsive

[@menacetosobrietypodcast]

Well done mate, great achievement!

[@ct4664]

Dan, you say people who struggle with mental health should stop abusing drink / drugs for a while to see if that makes a difference and that’s totally true. But what are your thoughts on the people who regularly use drink / drugs because they are struggling? If someone is using it as a coping mechanism instead of just being a sesh head and suffering from the fall-out after the weekend, what should they do?

[@rossblack9559]

That's an addiction though if you can't stop. One thing I think these podcasts don't realise or I have seen mentioned is to understand the root cause of the issue, prior childhood, anxiety, confrontation, confidence, a matter of happening in your life. See if you can talk to someone to understand why you do it and your life choices. And why you use it as a coping mechanism

[@Ian-b1h1w]

Love Elliott ward wot a guy
