I am a 5th Grade teacher and especially see many of my 5th Grade Boys struggling... I have so many that can relate to you, Lewis. Have you ever thought about writing a smaller chapter book (autobiography) that would be more attuned to a 5th Grade Boy? I think it would be great! Something we could use for SEL in class and give to struggling students and students who have internal family struggles? Just a thought! I find you so inspirational and want my kids to hear you, but sometimes it's a little too grown up for the little ones. I would use your story in class if you wanted to do that!

After 27 and a bad relationship. I hit a pretty low point in my life. I smoked weed one night and got super high, but through that I got my epiphany. I finally realized how am I supposed help others if I can't help myself first. Up to that point I thought I was unloveable, then I realized how am I supposed to love someone else when I can't love myself first. Always take care of your needs first. You can't help others if you can't help yourself first. The way I put it nowadays is, how do you take care of someone else when you yourself are sick. You need to take care of your needs first before helping/loving others.

I was raised to be a people pleaser and I’ve been to therapy about it. Still have issues with mean, narcissistic individuals because I’m not one and trying to move past them (cause I work with them) is tough. Still looking for complete inner peace. Fluffy, I lost my bff after 23 years. She was like a sister and we did everything together. She chose to leave the relationship because I “didn’t understand her anymore.” Hurt like hell for years, but I discovered that forgiving and moving on and thinking about my own well-being was more important. “Cleaning house” does help. Wish you nothing but the best always because I use your videos to get me through MY tough times. Unity through laughter always!❤

Looks like the struggle with weight has returned. I pray he has not had any additional health issues confront him that caused that. Too many Great Comics have lost their lives due to health issues.

Really enjoyed this. What came across to me, in my opinion, is that Gabriel has really struggled with issues from childhood. Father not being around, can cause a child to blame self, and to seek love, approval, (laughter) from others. Over eating, drinking too much too often as a coping mechanism to handle emotions and feelings can come from not learning healthy ways to handle emotions and feelings. I hope he finds peace and healing. He has made me smile and laugh and enjoy life many times.

Wow!!! All I could say from watching this interview.... Preach Brother, PREACH!!!! Gabriel is on point about past pain, healing and moving forward. Ugly Truths helps you to be better. Love how honest and humble this interview is.

Your vulnerability and honesty brought tears to my eyes.... We admitted powerlessness over our drinking and over eating
