FILLING TIME with Andy Roy- Episode 1

[@vonslagle]

I’ll be sober 8 years in November. I used to live in San Francisco and would see Andy around sometimes. Last time I saw him was in Safeway on 16th St. We were both fucked up and now we’re both clean. Seems like yesterday. The future is unwritten

[@M1978-p8j]

Always loved Andy’s energy. Remember how strong you both are for the ability to leave all that shit behind. That’s a strength that not everyone has ! Never been an addict but can only imagine what waking up each day clean would be like. Remember each morning the inner strength you have and don’t look back .

[@toiletpaper5770]

I was staying at a hotel in Long Beach called la pasada. There was all kinds of different people there: ex-cons, disability, schizo, etc. One day I heard someone died and I thought: it coulda been any one of those people and I wouldn’t be surprised. It was a place where people go to decide if they’re gonna live or die.. I think that’s part of what helped me decide to change. 11 years sober!!

[@eazyelias]

I cherish the times I spent with Andy when I was a child, I was 9 or 10 years old when I first met him and he completely changed my life. I was even fortunate enough to meet Rick as well, I’m so proud of Andy. I’ve seen him at his worst, but even then, he was still the sweetest most caring person I’ve ever had in my life ❤️💪🏽 Love you Andy!

[@systemofadon]

I’ll be 5 years sober in September after having a stroke and almost dying. I’m also relearning to skate again one of the only things I ever loved doing without drugs and alcohol.

[@joshwest7049]

Get a skate and a guitar. Every thing else makes me want drugs. I don't do it any more, some times I wish I did. Not the drugs but the skating. I miss that more than anything.

[@LC-ur8gv]

@@joshwest7049 Preach it!

[@JohnnyColdheart]

Brother I'm gonna be 5 years clean in September too. After 20 years of ripping and running. And since getting clean I've been able to start skating again, got a get well job at a skate shop then ended up managing it. Then met my current wife. Started playing music again and now have a decently successful local band. Had a baby. And now I'm working as a recovery coach and life is beautiful. It's wild how much things can change and how lost dreams can awaken.

[@brianrochman1443]

Almost the same story ....I'll have four years in April. Sub Arachnoid Brain Hemorrhage 🧠 almost took me out on 9-26-2020 Barely made it. Started skating again 6 months ago....🤙

[@SKRIMPMSTRFLEX]

Andy is part of the reason I stopped doing hydrocodone and drinking everyday. Andy is such a relatable gem.

[@williamdixon-gk2sk]

I swear, the stress of boosting took more years off my life than what i was buying afterward. Great show, Andy!

[@WHDRWN]

With inflation as it is I take stuff like... what? WHAT? hahah I never had cash for italian pecorino or schwarzkopf shampoo when I was paying for stuff. fugg em

[@jdion79]

Dude... the old footage is genius...

[@l.j.i]

Man, this is amazing. I want to read that book now! You rock, Andy. Love what you do. Had 10 years, went back to that life of hell during the pandemic, coming back up on 3 here next month and skating every day. Got my passion back. Super grateful. 🙏 Keep doing what you do and carry the message, homie. 🤟❤

[@pamelabonds6300]

Thank you so much for sharing. 2 of the most raddest guys I know. 🤘🏼 Love that you are sober and sharing your experiences and allowing us to be apart of your journey. ❤ sobriety happens. 🎸 🎶 🛹 🙏🏼 🔥

[@dannyfuckingoi]

Great video! Respect to you guys and all the old school punk rockers out there. From Philly, Got 10months clean right now. Just lost my housing bc haven't been able to find a job in 2.5 months due to me record and lack of job history. If you've never done opioids, don't. Keep em coming

[@75YBA]

Six Stair kills! Can’t thank you enough for The Letters. 🔥💔

[@agostocobain2729]

Word to mother, I'm still in the gutter...hope to be there with y'all some day.

[@bradpnw1897]

If you need any help tips or tricks let me know. What's addicted to heroin for 20 years. Haven't used any heroin or fentanyl since August of 23 and have no desire anymore. Reach out to people that have gotten clean when your ready to start your recovery. God bless you 🙏 recovery is possible

[@agostocobain2729]

@ The part that is hard for me is not the withdrawal, I mean that hard, but not as hard as the depression you get. I feel like really fucking empty, jus a shell ya know? That part is brutal, and I just go back. Do you have a instagram?

[@michaelsiengo1]

One month, and I will be two years sober… Tonight I saw a firetruck, and an ambulance come up to the Fifth house down from mine earlier that evening I had passed a group of young people, having a great time grilling, and chilling… I knew it was gonna be overdose and sure enough it was…. You cannot fuck around anymore. I like your videos. Thank you for keeping me alive one more day.

[@bradpnw1897]

God bless you. Haven't used any heroin since August of 23. Used methadone for 2 years up until July 8th 24. I'm still going through withdrawals from coming off of methadone which is insane. Synthetic opioids are one of the worst things to come off of of anything. Insane long-term withdrawals.

[@jacobgrotheer2046]

Andy you rule and so do all of your friends. What you’re doing is really good man. You’re a good man now!! Always were just got a little lost!

[@dOuPdMe]

This shit is real as fuck. I don’t know I still deal with shit mentally even with seven years clean. I’m just rambling but I’m happy/lucky to be here today. Whoever is out there dealing with addiction there is hope for you. I didn’t think I’d make it to this side but I did.

[@Lincolnlogsoff]

Nobody does I think, but glad to have you here.

[@Old_man_Rob]

Thanks Andy! Been in that "living hell" of existence myself! Hang five to the Six stairs guys for filming, "producing" this !! At our ages , we have lost too many to this insanity! Love and respect to all of you!!

[@Clayton_Graul]

This came out great! That Guitar center "actual reenactment" is choice.

[@jherring3889]

I remember just walking out with an acoustic bass like I owned it. No one said didley. Can't do it today. 😢. But that bass changed my life and formed an income formed a band but wouldn't think twice about Not doing that today. It's not a great thing to do. Apparently

[@Hawaiiartobjects]

Aloha’! Andy is the man. This is great. Quit drinking white claws, quit smoking, never felt better about the world going up in flames. 🔥 it’s a great day to be alive. Breathe and don’t comment on KZbin. But I had to. Hahaha.

[@kermerc.s.a.5765]

Modesto's gnarliest son. Much love Andy

[@LokeyOne415]

amazing bro! im one year clean from the streets of the TL in sf..i know your familiar with that. looking forward to more of these episodes, great work!

[@adamlangdon2245]

Andy is the man.

[@karlneumann6833]

Fuck yeah thx for sharing this. Been clean for almost a handful of years now, hasn’t been easy but ain’t looking back.

[@libertard6101]

Both these guys are real …. Dig this !!!

[@daleadelic]

much love andy im sure i had your board back in the day... the skater lifestyle of that era got me too and im still struggling every week to come of H and methadone and benzos and i want to live life and be happy. im so ready andy! i wish i had an emotionally safe environment to detox and some rehab time and therapy. im glad you did it. we took the wrong road thinking it was cool or something and it slowly progressed into being awful. im so glad you got well so you can tell the young skaters that they dont need drugs. thankfully for those kids its a different era for better or for worse.. certainly a healthier era and much higher level of skating. much love

[@nitrojunkie9027]

Fuck yeah Andy, sooo good to see you clean and healthy bro. Keep doing you man!!

[@jesselira8096]

This is great, not what I was expecting.

[@buickcityfilms]

This resonates so much ❤

[@kermerc.s.a.5765]

Hahahaha I remember cyborg jack. Modesto legend. He would show up at graceada all the time when we would be skating.

[@raeshimizu4928]

Big ups to Andy one of the reasons I decided to change the way I live my life

Love you Andy🤘

[@holc123]

that guy is a level ten poet. dang. he can write!

[@skulleagletartat]

Thank goodness.

[@SK84FUN.]

I had two brothers die from heroin. It's definitely the worst drug anyone could do. I can't understand why anyone would want to waste their life on that junk. People that have a heroin problem should think of their family and friends and how much they would be missed if they were gone. You can't depend on narcan to be around to save you're life it wasn't around for my brothers. What you're doing here is good . Andy we've met at Skatopia. We talked but we never mentioned heroin and how stupid it is and how it kills people. Thanks for making this vid.

[@tylertictoc24]

Awesome video

[@chrismajor4169]

You can reach a lot of people Andy! You’re a REAL one man. Proud of you brother!! Always will have love for your crazy ass!! Lol

[@tunafish648]

Andy Roy is the man! But Marylin Manson sucks

[@TheBlueberryMadness]

Andy Roy intentionally infects women with herpes. He bragged about it in a Big Brother interview and continues to do this to women who are too young to know about Big Brother. There are plenty of other people who can be a positive voice of recovery. This dude ain’t it.

[@vfriendlydavev]

Really? Andy is the last person to give a platform to. Dude is the worst.

[@l.j.i]

It's youtube. Anyone can have a "platform" here... even you!

[@TheBlueberryMadness]

Seriously. So many other positive voices in recovery and skateboarding. We can do so much better.

[@thesinsofjcooper2328]

Please don't make this like stevo. Tired of all the sober shit. Stevo sucks so please don't make andy that way

[@mattflores6453]

Met Andy at the gym dudes so cool fucking solid dude
