Noah, you’re such a gentle soul. So very sensitive. I absolutely admire you in your struggles, and your determination to be sober and get to a better place in life. I have a son who is quite similar to you. He’s 43, and we are Australians. Never, ever give up on yourself, and know that you are loved and accepted by so many. Even us who have followed you through your dad, Dr Paul, for many years. God bless and keep you, Noah. May He strengthen you in every way. 🙏🏼❤️🇦🇺

Been watching your journey for nearly ten years now. It’s been a rough ride for both of us. It does get easier with time and having the right mindset. My first sip of alcohol was at ten years old when a waitress served me a glass of white wine during a family wedding. Realized it wasn’t apple juice, but I thought to myself back then that this could be something I’d be able to drink again someday again. I did in my early to mid-20s when my drinking was at its peak. Was drinking bottles of whisky, going through 12pks like water. Cut out liquor in 2019 thinking that’d change the situation but I’ve realized by now no amount is good enough. And believe me when I say that you ARE a good dude & I have never met you but you’ve always been gracious and kind, and for that, thx..

I just wanted to say I'm not an alcoholic (but I AM an addict), but I've been following you for many years, even as my own life has gone through a rollercoaster ride of highs and lows, love and loss. One thing you taught me is that no matter how f*cked I might be in terms of my life and my relationships and my mental health, I can at least take control of my own body. No matter how much of a f*ck up I am, I can at least exercise and control what food I eat. I have that power, and least. In all my struggles this has been my best tool in keeping my sh*t together when everything else is my life was falling apart.

i often think we want to help others because we can't help ourselves and it is easier to want to help others than to face our own pain. i am working through cptsd, split personality and a sick cat that won't get better. but i am learning to take care of myself first. and work through it all first, or you will keep sabotaging yourself.

12 Days Clean & Sober today. No turning back!!❤ Last week I almost died. I had been extremely sick and in agonizing pain for 15 Long Miserable Months. Doctors and Specialists kept running me around in circles with no help in sight. So last week I was rushed to the hospital and I had to have extremely serious emergency surgery. It was my first surgery. Miraculously I have started getting well now. I’m finally healing. I have had drug & alcohol addiction problems for many years. I quit the drugs in 2016 but I started drinking again during covid19. So I’m 12 days sober today. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. My birthday is next week and I’m a little concerned about getting through it but I Shall Not Drink! Maybe I’ll spend the whole day at meetings.? ❤

The big thing to create consistent change is realizing that thoughts and thinking are not the same. Thoughts come and go like suggestions. One can call them functional thoughts or signposts. Their job is to just give you direct info right now and then they leave. There is nothing egoistic or damaging about them. Either you follow their advice or you dont. Psychological thoughts however are egoic thoughts. Talking to you in "I or me" mode. These thoughts are a result of you thinking your thoughts to try to control them. They give you a sense of control by making you think you are figuring something out or solving something. In reality, it is all a scam. You have no control over your thoughts when you think them, no progress is being made in the content of the thoughts that we seem to believe. After you think about them they still move on without anything at all being better or solved. Unless we stop thinking/engaging with our stream of thoughts, we will never be in our true power of wholeness and clarity. Effortlessness and joy. Health and abundance. Good luck!

Noah this the first time Ihave watched you vlog. Whatever you think and feel is what makes you the person you are, which appears to be a kind sympathetic caring man . I think most of us have no idea of how what and when , we are all on the same destination. It’s just the journey in getting there is different for us all, I wish I had the answer to life’s travails and why some of us suffer more than others .I think that as long as you harm no one else then you are successful.Try keep trying and you will be more than you ever hoped for .From what I have seen you are already there. Now you just have to see it and believe it! You are all that you need to be and more ! Good luck on your journey Noah, you still have time to be the person you want to be,you have much to offer and so much to teach , oh and love , you give us much love .Someone somewhere loves you .Well done you are good enough , you are more than good enough

Could also explain why people after rehab tend to cut off their loved ones? My boyfriend was at rehab and it’s been very hard during this time and when he came back initially he was loving and soft like he used to be before to me but out of the blue he blocked me everywhere when I just asked why we could not meet since he came back… I don’t know why he cut me off without any explanation when I just wanted to know what was going on… I want to talk to him in person and get some answers… he said he was feeling very unsettled back home but why did he just block me??? What happened during these few days? Cause we were talking literally few days ago about travelling together and building our future and when I asked why we still haven’t met in person and asked to clarify it he just blocked without saying a word… it’s so hurtful and painful… I’ve been put on hold and missing him for so long
