Mod Sun Talks About Struggling With His Sobriety | Wild Ride! Clips

[@ThePlotLineBand]

That dog always sits on everyone who needs it most. So sweet. I'm so glad to see mod talk with stevo. He needed this right now.

[@elusion23one41]

Yeah dude that dog is intuitive ive seen wendy do that as well lay her head on peoples lap to comfort them See the moment he met wendy she aint no ordinary dog. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqDFl6iai9CWY5Y

[@shelbymelissa3301]

I love how Mod Sun just sits and listens. You can tell he is eager for change

[@dickdeoreo]

It was lovely to watch. I loved this convo

[@captainsin7126]

One of the first things I noticed early in the video. You could tell he was eager to learn something that would help his recovery.

[@Curtis.Carpenter]

@@captainsin7126 Totally man right at 5 minutes 25 seconds, You can see him totally focused and hes entirely engaged in what Steve O has to say and it couldn't be any more genuine in my opinion. That's something you usually don't get to see anywhere even when addiction is disgust openly. Seeing 2 people learn from each other and then seeing 2 people learn from each other and have that person learning be genuinely open honest and receptive like maudson is doing here is a whole different situation jewelry to witness and I think it is much more powerful than simply having 2 people In recovery bounce ideas off each other or their experiences as we so often see in just about every other addiction related content online.

[@ellaova]

Great that it inspires! What's the deal with ModSun!? I'm just curious as to how he has all these connections within the industry (and how he even met Bella Thorton) given he doesn't have a huge platform and isn't well known for his creative endeavours. Is he wealthy!? Genuine question

[@TrevorEst1994]

Hes been sober 3 years..

[@RocMerc]

What a beautiful conversation between 4 guys. This guy truly needed to hear all this and he really looks like he wants to do better. Good for him and all of them for helping in that journey. This was awesome

[@dickdeoreo]

The way he pays attention to what they’re saying is beautiful. Like a kid listening to an adult tell them something awe inspiring that they’ve never heard.

[@JanoyCresva]

@@dickdeoreo Its addict behavior. He's "selling". Im a former addict for 8 years off heroin and meth for 12 years. Steveo tries to talk like a therapist and its just cringe. Mod was talking about feeling broken and steveo said "Most people havent found what they are passionate about!" Like, the dude is selling out arenas. You really think he should go looking for more? He's obviously still in love with drugs. I think steveo is just such a narcissist that he feels everyone should listen to him and that all his advice is helpful. Constantly talking about himself and interrupting the guests to talk about himself.

[@AutoAbsolute]

Men need more genuine conversations like this. It's ok not to be ok, we're all struggling in some way, shape or form. Be kind and look out for each other.

Crazy how you can visually see Mod Sun just soaking this all up. Dude is serious about making a change. Respect.

[@JanoyCresva]

He wont make it though. NOt in the career he's in. Being on stage is such a crazy rush with everyone yelling for you then you get on that quiet boring bus or that backstage room with no drugs or booze in it. Just you sitting there with your thoughts and the night. I heard the guys from Rammstein say once that the worst depression they ever had was on tour because when you walk off stage the love has left. The high has left. SO you replace that with drugs. Modsun is still pretty young to be an old sober man on tour. I hope im wrong but as a former junkie myself... i can just put myself in certain places.

[@thetfish]

@@JanoyCresva you paint a great picture of that. Like they have to fill the void. I’m with you, hopefully he can make the change and stick to it. Sure isn’t easy. Big props to you too!

As an alcoholic myself, who went to rehab and has relapsed really bad because I didn’t truly follow the 12 steps properly, I’m now going through a detox for the 2nd time and am SO ready to be sober and get this crap out my life forever, this video really helped me, listening to Steve-o is so helpful. I wish he could be my sponsor haha ❤

[@TeddySpaghetti2X]

This was such a fantastic subconscious intervention to watch because you can clearly see this man is seeking help and see there is hope, but is unable to completely achieve freedom. I am saving this video because it hits home for me having dealt with alcoholism and depression so thank you guys very much!

[@ElysiumRose]

Mod seems like a good, kind soul. I hope he follows this excellent advice and does the steps.

[@mercurygirl6897]

Hope he will get to a meeting and do those steps with someone who has done them and may guide him. It is impossible to do them alone. It worked for me a day at a time since June 13, 2003 …. If I make it to June I will celebrate 20 years!! It’s ALL because of the 12 steps! Period! 🤍🤍🤍💥💥🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

Such a shame we lost Mac miller. That dude created so much amazing music and died at 26 so much good music to come, I wonder what he would have done if he’d got sober, not that the drugs didn’t help his awesome music, but he’d still be alive. RIP. And thanks for the great music.

[@jessie9539]

I freaking love Modsun. The talk I never knew I needed!!

[@Meemeeseecoo]

I’ve only been sober for about 4 months but I know exactly what Mod Sun was concerned about. You get that initial rush of quitting the substance but eventually that wears off. Steve-O does a great job of providing some direction/optimism. Steve-O’s transformation really is remarkable/inspiring. I think this is now my favorite podcast lol.

[@liviasalgado]

I loved the way he listened, I tear up a little, 20 years one day at the time, we all are miracles ❤

[@waterywaffles]

I've been struggling with addiction for so long. Hearing mod sun say that he almost got a high from getting sober clicked with me so well. Every time I slip up again it's because I lose this excitement of finally being sober. After watching this I think I'm going to start the 12 steps.

[@TheBandIsPlaying]

12 steps will change your life if you buy in!!!! Good luck on your journey!

Aww I hope Mod really will start the steps!!! I did 6 months white knuckling it, relapsed, then finally went to treatment and am trying my best to work the program. Actually working on yourself and "being abstinent from drugs" are two totally different things and I can tell a huge difference.

[@hangingon]

Mod I watched your documentary and have alot of respect for you as a human sharing the same affliction as many of us. Life is hitting us all hard right now but it could always be worse. You got out at the perfect time cause this Fent has killed all my friends. You got a very kind soul & you deserve to be happy. Always remember- This too shall pass & One day at a time. So far it's me over 2 years & counting, and I finally have NO desire to use. I pray the same for you & everyone still suffering. God Bless bud!

[@tomwilko7841]

Good for u man...whatever gets u through...different strokes for different folks

[@aaronkamakaze2967]

Agree man. Meetings made me worse. Talking about addiction and being around alot of mentally sick people didn't help my recovery at all. I was stagnant for years going to AA and NA meetings. I did the 12 steps 3 times and would still relapse. And when that happened they would blame me and never once think that the program just doesn't work for some people lol. I eventually stopped going, went to psychologists and got on suboxone and quit the opiates and it was what actually got me clean for long periods of time. I smoke cannabis now also, and that's about it...

[@sandhanitizer15]

Only thing I got help with was the actual detox. I didn't do rehab or meetings for the same reason. I smoke a ton of weed, always have, but that wasn't the problem. Keep it up man, glad you're still here with us.

Great conversation & im glad this was published

[@robertlee8400]

I quit everything , drinking & smoking pot , that’s all I did , nothing more .

It really wasn’t worth felling like that anymore , I couldn’t concentrate anymore . Once I quit , I had more time on my hands , I found more time for hobby’s I neglected over the years , my hobby’s are my drug now & I like to keep it that way .

[@fmorin71234]

The biggest help for me after finishing the steps was daily prayer and meditation. I found myself being irritable and had a hard time with anger at around the 6th month. My sponsor suggested daily meditation and each morning I started counting my breaths for 5 minutes to start and then worked my way up to a minimum of 10 minutes each morning. It immediately started working. Also praying that my higher power would show me the right decision to make throughout the day and give me the power to do it. Asking to take away my selfishness and expressing gratitude for something and thank him each night for my sobriety. By applying this daily in my life it has made a HUGE difference!

[@dickdeoreo]

My meditation was exercise. I’m far too wound up for meditation and personally find it more annoying. Going for a light jog or hitting the gym or doing push-ups and making a good breakfast in the morning was my thing. It’s great to have those stress relieving outlets in sobriety. I mean, there’s no other way. Can’t wake up and hit a line in the morning anymore lol
