Bert is in a tough spot. He's always been immature and never really grew out of the frat boy phase. This has allowed him to become rich and famous, but at the same time if you don't mature a little bit and accept that you have to slow down as you get older you won't end up getting older. I hope he realizes that if he slows down he can still maintain his fame and success.

Why does he need help? He is rich, famous, his addiction has not chased off his wife and children, and when he dies he will pass on his wealth to them. He could stop drinking and live a "perfect life" and get hit by a truck. We are all going to die.

It happened to me before and TG I went straight home before I was too paralyzed. What I'm actually trying to communicate is that Ari has a sadistic and psychopathic way of getting his friend to "have fun". I'm saying that based on Bert's public n private life, it's probable that his kids have seen MUCH worse. And if you've seen Ari's latest special, you'd know that he did it just in case Bert was carrying pocket ham, w intentions of dunking it into Ari's drink.

His lifestyle wasn't sustainable at 23 and now he's just marching steadily towards an early grave. His health is going to take a turn very suddenly and that will be it. It doesn't help that Tom thinks Bert's delusion is fucking hilarious and does next to nothing to help him stop. And unrelated sorta but: Ari's capacity to drug people against their knowledge "because it's funny" I've never liked. That's a HARD line that I don't think anyone should ever cross and yet everyone sorta accepts it as "That's just Ari". People also forgive Joey Diaz for doing similar shit and then constantly talk about how he's a great guy. I disagree.

I feel you. I'm about 6 months sober at 25 years old. The last time I went to buy alcohol, I ended up collapsing in the liquor store from withdrawal, dehydration, damage to my pancreas, liver (alcohol induced hepatitis), internal bleeding (stomach ulcers). My heart stopped functioning properly, I went into SVTS, then had carpal pedal spasms- slurred speech (couldn't move my face, hands legs ect) and then lost consciousness. Had to have my heart restarted 3 times, once in the ambulance. Eventually ended up spending the better part of a month in the hospital, and had to wear a heart monitor for a month, all to no avail. Alcohol and my addiction almost killed me, and that moment was really what made me stop. I'm not going to lie, I was a very functional alcoholic, never starting fights, insulting people ect- more of a "come over I'm making dinner" and then having 12 drinks a night (I also have insomnia, so it was self medicating). Eventually those 12 drinks turned into a handle a day for 2 years. To have most likely permanent damage at 25 as a result is a pretty good wake up call to cut it out, I don't know how bert hasn't gotten it yet at his age but I really fear for him when it does happen.

Real psycho behavior, I think even the Brogan crowd is divided on him and polite society fucking hates him at this point.

Some of the behaviors he shows, like the "sneak drinking" and drinking just to have that buzz. Been sober for almost 7 years, and it's been the best thing I could have done for myself. It's good to see others here commenting on their sobriety journey and can only hope those still struggling can find their way out.

It wasn’t impacting my life but it was just another thing I didn’t want to consume because I wasn’t vibing with it. Hell, I dumped friends who were still staying out til 4am all weekend long in our 30s because they couldn’t handle their stuff.

It's a shame when the solution to a problem is so simple, but at the same time seems near impossible. I wish there was a definitive solution, but sometimes being a human being just sucks. But other times it can be pretty good. We all basically have to find our own way to navigate it, and often times, motivation can come from seemingly nowhere. It might seem like I'm ranting, but I'm also trying to make a point. Your perspective and understanding of your own situation is extremely important and vital for starting your recovery. It sounds like you're on your way towards understanding, which is a good sign. I don't know anything about you, but so far it looks like you are headed in the right direction. I've seen people in some of the worst situations imaginable that have recovered and are living normal lives. When you're truly ready to move on, you'll find the motivation.

My reasons for drinking are very similar to yours, Chris. I was lonely and depressed and anxious. I turned to alcohol because it numbed the pain I was feeling, but it resulted in a very sad life for a few years there. It took me hitting my rock bottom (it's different for everyone) to convince myself that I needed to make a change. I entered a recovery program and started taking the steps to better understand my addiction and where it comes from (I'll be two years sober in early-February). The key is you need to want it for yourself, like truly want it. For me that meant believing that I deserved happiness. That wasn't easy and has required therapy, recovery groups and some self-reflection. All of this is to say, I've been exactly where you are. Millions have been where you are. You are not alone in your struggles, and you'd be amazed at how much can change and improve in a relatively short amount of time if you're willing to put in the work to start recovery. But, again, you have to want it for yourself. You admitting you have a problem is a good first step. Best of luck!

I've known about Berts alcoholism for a bit, so when I learned in this vid that he had actually stopped drinking, I got pretty inspired from it. Just to see 2 seconds later that he excitedly jumped straight back into a full bender without feeling bad about it, which just made me sad, relating to that fucking failure of myself and my self control, that I exhibited 2 days ago when I relapsed.

23:40 that hit especially close to home for me. Thank you for this video. Addiction is a terrifying thing man, my dad died back in 2021 right after I turned 18. He ODed on methadone in December 2018 and almost died, got out and lived with my grandma for a year. He was clean for that whole year. I visited him every weekend for the whole weekend. A lot of my family on his side went to Florida for the holidays at the end of 2019, the night before our flight, he picked me up and we went to a tattoo shop so he could get a Narcotics Anonymous tattoo on his hand. I was so proud of him. And the trip was great, but 3 days in, he somehow got his hands on heroin and was found high and unconscious in the basement of the resort house my grandma rented for us all to stay at. I didn't talk to him for the reat of the trip, even on the ride from the airport back to my grandma's house. When I was off to go back to my mom's I said bye to everyone but him. About two months later, I see him again while I'm at church with my grandma (I'm not religious but I still go occasionally), he just showed up and sat right next to me. I was shocked, nervous and a little angry but I didn't say anything, and afterwards we talked a little and it was actually a great conversation about a lot of things, but mainly he told me he was doing better and staying with his friend who got him a job. And he did have a car which was how he got there. I didn't know it at the time but that was the last time I ever saw him. I was supposed to see him again but two weeks later my grandma texted me and told me it's not safe to see him, he's still high, and got caught by an undercover cop selling crack and heroin. This was literally one week before my school got shut down because of COVID too, so his trial was delayed for a long time, and I was left in shock. I confronted him about it over text and he called my grandma a bitch, a liar, she's awful and I should never talk to her again, and that none of those things are true. I got mad and never texted him again. He tried texting and calling me from NINE different numbers and I just stayed silent the whole time. And then he died in 2021. Even though he's been in and out of prison my whole life, has struggled with addiction for longer than I've been alive, and worlds of help from my family couldn't save him, I still feel so guilty about how I handled it. I regret so much. I wish I would've called him back at least one last time. Went out to lunch with him or gone to see a movie, anything at all. A part of me still blames myself for him dying. He told me a few times that my sister and I are the only things he lives for. My sister lives across the country with her mom and I ignored him. But I have to remind myself that no matter what, everything that happened to him was his choice. It's what he wanted. He loved the high more than he loved life. He ended up being homeless because he stole from his friend too. It's so sad and it hurts me so much to say this, because I loved him so much and since he died I haven't been able to bring myself to love anyone anymore at all, but that was his karma. To anyone else who has gone through the same thing, always remember that. It's not your fault. They did it, not you, that was their choice and they knew the consequences.
@purerage7963 Жыл бұрын
It's really not your fault. I personally believe we have a moral obligation to give our parents the best treatment possible since they raised us, but there's only so much you can reasonably do to help a self-destructive person. You gave him multiple chances and he not only screwed it up, but made life difficult for your grandmother and his friend for the sake of his high, betraying their trust and throwing them under the bus. It's one thing to mess up and need people to lift you up, and another to be so destructive that you endanger anyone who tries to make themselves vulnerable to you. Did you respond with 100% saint-like behaviour? No, but imo you gave enough reasonable opportunity for him to come clean and he unfortunately relapsed and took it too far ultimately. It's a sad and all too real scenario, but you can't blame yourself for how it turned out. I hope you're doing well now and I hope his soul rests in peace.

And those learned habits of when to use alcohol and drugs keep calling back. I wish to be stronger than these thoughts one day. I know I'll keep having the thoughts because I'm simply a human, but I hope that (like the best humans) I'll learn to let go of them and thrive. If anyone sees this comment in a couple months or years, reply back so I get reminded of this.

I have a friend (we are both in twenties) and he fell into the trap of teenage party drinking pretty hard. He was finding more and more situations where he could drink socialy, then he started curing hangovers by drinking, then he started drinking on his own, he was hiding his drinking from his girlfriend and even when I asked him a question regarding alcohol I could not get a straight answer. He ended up in a rehab for couple of months. now he is sober for a second year, happy but forever an alcoholic who cant trust himself with single beer. He had similar love talk about alcohol and evasive behaviour as Bert - that guy is in deeeeeep problem

Him describing that "11am sneak a drink while out shopping with the family" feeling is straight up alcoholic brain nonsense, if I've ever heard it. As an alcoholic approaching two years sober myself, I got a bit of a chuckle out of him convincing himself he's not an alcoholic because he could go two months without drinking. It's such a common story in the recovery community. Hope he gets help before it's too late.

Yeah, his “Partiers can stop. Addicts never stop. Therefore, I’m a partier; not an addict” thought process tells me everything I need to know. During that break, he was trying to prove something, and if the main reason you take a break from drinking is to prove you're not an alcoholic, that's usually a bad sign. What you're really seeking is permission to drink again. “Hey family and friends who are concerned about my drinking, I’ve made it 30...60...100 days without drinking. I've learned a lot, and you can stop worrying about me now. Anyways, who’s up for a booze cruise to celebrate?!” When you go back, your usually go back harder, because now you feel vindicated.

We just laid our uncle to rest this year. My other uncles begged him and pleaded with him to stop drinking but he didnt care. It was so bad that his friends would pay him with alcohol (he was a mechanic). Last year October he had a stroke. It was almost 1 hour before someone found him. As a result of him getting no medical attention when he had the stroke, he lost the ability to talk and move the left side of his body. In January of this year, he died. It is so hard to watch a family member destroy their life when they constantly refuse help and he truly believed that he didnt have an addiction.

I think my late father was under the delusion of some sort of “Mickey Mantle Gene” as well. He drank very briefly in his teenage years, did coke in the 80s, and smoked cigarettes & weed from the 90s until his death. He also ate excessively, I think partially due to a food addiction & partially as another way to self medicate. He also played drums for his entire life, and was very very good at it. Had an excellent ear as well. He had a quadruple bypass heart surgery in his 50s, but didn’t stop smoking or eating. He dropped down to about 245 but was nearly 300lbs again when he died (he was 6’4” as well). He had a widow maker. No one found him for hours since he was at work. And by that point there was nothing anyone could do. He was also an excellent family man. Worked 50-70 hours a week when my sibling and I were babies. He did so well that I was able to take over his job and continue to provide for my mom and sibling. I’ve never ever doubted how much he loves us and how proud he was. I had a conversation with him a few months before he died, and he genuinely believed he would stick around forever. Or at least until retirement. He didn’t make it. He died at 61 years old. I feel for Bert. It’s really hard to break patterns when you feel that they’re the only thing sustaining you or it’s the only pleasure you have outside of labor. It’s even harder when you’re surrounded by fans and “friends” that relish in your delinquency. I hope he realizes that it isn’t too late. He doesn’t have to light himself on fire to keep everyone else warm. He’s made a name for himself and hopefully has enough money to step away for a while. I hope he does. Even though I wouldn’t rank his comedy in my top 10 or whatever I’ve listened for a long time. I think he’s got a heart, unlike a lot of the other Brogan Dorks. (I guess im specifically shading Tom. I didn’t notice it at first but he makes my bones itch, and I wouldn’t want to be alone with him whereas I don’t have that feeling towards Bert).

I'm an alcoholic and I've been sober for 7 years now. Now, I can't imagine why I ever thought I enjoyed being drunk. I've come to realize that I didn't. I had just gotten divorced and was living with my grandparents with only a small bedroom to myself. At the time, it was escape or kill myself. Bert is my favorite comedian and even just going by his stories on stage, I think he rationalizes it like all addicts do. The reality is he will probably never quit because his wealth will mean he never has to hit rock bottom mentally. A lot of the time, it takes losing everything to make someone work to get it back.

I'm not comfortable diagnosing someone with addiction unless I know them really well. I hear your point, but there are two things in my head. 1. Burt is a comedian who is paid to play a caricature of himself. He's a performer and knowing where the performance begins and real life ends is very difficult for the audience. 2. If there is an issue with him, deciding to do anything about that problem is a very personal decision. He tells the audience that he doesn't believe he has a problem and until/if he reaches out for help, it's not by business.

My father is a functioning alcoholic. I’ve never seen him hungover in my entire life. He uses the same phrases and excuses Burt uses and it’s infuriating. My dad also takes the month of January off drinking, so he can prove to himself that he’s not dependent. January’s are by far the best month of the year to be around my dad, he’s even tolerable for a month or two after he starts back up. However, like clockwork, by the time April comes around he’s right back to being this hateful/bitter/drunk who will say and do the most awful things to the people he claims to love and who really do love him (though he makes that harder and harder as the years progress and the trauma continues to be amplified). I looked up to my dad so much, I emulated everything about him, including his drinking. I was a raging alcoholic from 14 years old until I was 26. The only reason I stopped was because I got in a serious car accident and broke my neck and back, and I discovered pain killers. Fast forward 5 years and I hit rock bottom off of opiates and decided to go to rehab. It’s now been 12 years of sobriety, which makes dealing with my dad that much harder, because I know there is another way, he just refuses to see it.
