The moment he said it's the chase I knew exactly his thoughts. I'm an addict too, clean for 15yrs, and my drug counsellor helped me to understand it wasn't the drugs I was addicted to, it was the going to score the drugs (the chase) this counsellor really helped change my life and I'll forever be eternally grateful to him and the best way to honour his work is to remain clean

Really...it was the chase? What kept me motivated was the fear of going through withdrawal.

[@deancurson1345]

@nathangent6921 for me the buzz was scoring, once I understood that in full the rest came relatively easy. Don't get me wrong, I relapsed a few times as we all do, and even now I still have those waves through my body and mind where I just want get smashed but I'm able to offset that with how far I've come, im me again pre-drugs, or at least the new me as I think you're never the same person you was before drugs. When I stopped, it took me the best part of 2yrs before I felt normal again, having been an using addict for so long I generally had to re-learn socials skills, facing issues straight, and so on. I'm not proud of who I was but im proud of my journey and who I become, but I still harbour that addictive nature within, but now I have the tools to deal with it, and more importantly the desire to never go back

Chinning Chinning When you have to pull your mask down to your chin to reveal you’re actually smiling. When you wear your face mask on your chin/ neck. “Lori and Peter were chinning the second they stepped outside of the grocery store for a fresh gulp of air.” Urban Dict.

As a cranial therapist that works with cellular memory…Tony’s ‘sick-ness’ is the cellular memory coming out and being released (in my opinion of course 💚) As some one also who has experienced trauma… the message of information being graphic… having witnessed something… again, only in my experience but resonant to Tony… I found I (am probably still) hold on to specific details as you feel you’re responsible somehow and a need to protect others (including self) from further injury or trauma Thank you Tony for speaking your truth (shame free) and being an inspiration 🙏😍

[@martinintrospective3491]

I first went to Ibiza in 1968 aged 5 , then when I was 17 in 1979. All thru the 80’s & sailed to Ibiza from the U.K. in 1999, lived there on my sailboat until 2007. I’ve seen Ibiza change over the years. Ibiza is a lot more corporate & expensive now (2025)I remember Fat Tony over the years mainly from London. He’s definitely been around

[@tz7813]

At 1:06:20 he starts talking about his brush with the law. He knew he was innocent so didn’t get a lawyer and just happily answered all the police questions. They used all his statements against him and banged him up. Everyone who’s watched a cop show can recite the words of the arresting officer: ‘Anything you say will be taken down and used in evidence AGAINST you in a court of law’. They are literally telling you to your face that they plan to take your words and twist them to incriminate you. NOT to take your words to exonerate you. Thats a policeman’s job. Go to any solicitor/lawyer and they will always give you one very valuable piece of advice: NEVER TALK TO THE POLICE.

When in the next breath? He just slagged it off saying a stupid man and a stupid book written millions of years ago like he didn’t believe it best place to get married if you don’t respect the church is 100%civil ceremony.
