Hey buddy ive been through this and just coming out the other side and let me tell you its bliss. But watch your language and your perception of taking about emotions. The "this is rough" or "difficult" is just another story. Ive been at this for nearly 9 years.and let me tell u i saw nothing but love and beauty in this video. How u perceive is how u shape your life so id invite ti look for the beauty in this topic and focus on that. And yes i can be difficult but with time and constant effort u can achieve anything.

I see bad qualities in almost all people, only Theo is for me a person with a heart that I have never seen before, especially in famous personalities. With his emotions he speaks from the soul of many people and when you listen to him, you feel at home even as an unloved and lonely person. Thank you Theo for being there and I wish you, and everyone else who is suffering for various reasons, the very best. Greetings from a huge fan from Germany.

I highly suggest watching the seasons of mtv's The Challenge that Theo was on, it's not a big part of his career but he opens up about himself a bit similar to this. Good to see him connecting to his self again.

[@michellelyrose]

I truly agree, I admire him more than anybody

[@Lifetimelearningisbrave]

when I see bad in everyone that is my HUGE red flag that something is not right with my internal state. For me this is my self protective mode when I feel abandoned, in shame, triggered by insecurity or unworthiness. Fortunately I belong to a 12 step fellowship (like Theo) that can help me be the person I want to be not just the one that reacts to a variety of stimuli like a mindless cog. One day at a time, I get to walk around being a part of the whole instead of better or worse. It feels like freedom. I wish you luck on your journey.

Its that little boy a lot of us have- "we are not worth the time", "we are a bother", "if i was more then ppl would treat me better/stick around". Its important to remember that we are adults and perhaps the way to fully seal off that narrative is realizing that we are the adult we wish we had.

[@onbored9627]

As a visibly depressed kid, my father in an act of love I will never forget, handed me two things that he said changed his life forever. One was a cassette player with headphones, the other was a book of cassettes full of Tony Robbins' presentations. I think about those tapes and the messages I heard in them all the time. Even now, to this day, when I see Tony Robbins' face it makes me feel more confident. It's weird how our brains can do that. I wish I could shake his hand and thank him. To think, that guy who was washing his dishes in his bathtub and barely scraping by, would go on to give a series of presentations about how he escaped that life, which would then be heard and loved by millions and eventually recorded in full on cassette, for it to be mass produced, and then packaged up and sent to a music store that carried these cassettes, for my father to walk in one day and buy them. My father, who got so much from them. And from there it was laid in my hands and changed me, as well. Incase he ever reads this... Thank you, Mr. Robbins. So much.

This is a very powerful video. I am a 58 year old woman who has gone through deep inner child therapy healing from childhood trauma. One of the things that I had mentioned early on in my therapy, is that I felt this feeling of betraying or leaving, deserting a part of myself (younger me) through healing. When I watched this video, I was like "Yes! I totally get what Theo is feeling". It makes complete sense. I called it the tug-a-war stage of healing. It takes work in the connection and I no longer have that feeling. Thank you very much for sharing this video!!

[@lori5946]

Yes !! I am embracing all my parts. I love EMDR to heal my triggers and embrace my strong parts. I am learning boundaries with myself and others. I change my dysfunctional beliefs. I do matter. I am grieving what I didn't get as a child. I am learning and accepting how I really feel. I am changing my mindset. Learning the truth that I am a wonderful person who is capable of healing and doing anything I want. I can have healthy relationships with myself and others.

@@edge9751 i know right!! Since Im right there with you, Ill just give you my thoughts on that. Self-criticism is a good thing, being able to say "I did this wrong." "I messed up" I belive those things propelled me to become better. But unfortunately it always came with shame, like, "Im so stupid, I shouldnt have lost like that". I was listening to this podcast and it really clicked with me that, failing is not bad, its the story youre making up about that failure that hurts us the most. You lose a chess match. Thats a fact. Now here's two different story's about that chess match: "Damn, how could I not see that checkmate coming, Im friggin worthless. I should have been better than that." Then there's, "Ah I see, that blows. I probably shouldn't have left my kingside open and overextended myself." We, (you and I) have to realize there is a difference between self-criticism and shaming ourselves under guise of self-criticism. Glad Im not alone sir in this journey

Theo, and Tony. From the bottom of my heart thank you. I’m going through a really hard time and working harder than I ever have in my life, or I guess for the first time in my life, on letting go of all my own negative emotions and stories I’ve told to myself about myself. I realized a couple weeks ago, that every negative feeling I have about myself, all the shame I have about myself, had started changing who I was for the worst. I was becoming a negative shitty person that did shameful things. All because that’s what I thought of myself already for no good reason. I started to become the piece of shit I already felt like I was because that felt genuine I guess. But a couple weeks ago I decided I didn’t want to be that bad person, and if feeling bad about myself was starting to make me act in ways I was actually right to be ashamed of, then I needed to work on myself and be the type of person I would admire and be proud of. This conversation was something I really needed to hear. It was really reassuring to me to hear Tony speak about his difficult and violent childhood. Having come from a similar environment, it was very inspiring hearing how he overcame the negative emotions it left him with. And Theo it was so refreshing and real to watch you open up like you did. I started crying and I wanted to reach through the screen and give you a hug man. It made me feel a lot less ashamed and alone to hear you put into words feeling’s I’ve never been able to express. You’re a really good guy Theo and I think this podcast is a really good and positive thing that you’ve put out into the world. You have every reason to be proud of yourself 🙂
