Thank you for this, Chris. Keep doing what you're doing, mate. I am reducing the dosage of Mirtazapine I have been taking since last year, and I want to stay pills-free shortly, so your message is encouraging and powerful. Thank you for this, and I hope to catch you soon!

To anyone thinking of doing dry January, this is your sign to do dry forever. Addiction ruined my life from head to toe, and yes, I know the past can’t be rewritten, but I can rewrite the future, and this is a better way of life. May God bless you all.

Did a movie with JK Simmons and Stephan James in 2021 called National Champions… it didn’t do so well in theaters but after some time, it hit Netflix… as soon as it hit Netflix, more people watched it, sent me vids with their support, and the film got more recognition. Same thing happened in 2022 with a film I did called The Re-Education of Molly Singer. What it let me know is that people love convenience and that Netflix really is the wave. From that point on, I let God, my agents, family, friends, “look, I wanna do NETFLIX.” Netflix is where it’s at! Kept saying it and subconsciously directed my energy towards wanting to be on the platform… so to now be on a show that has changed my life, been number 1 several times, and has been a staple in the culture is not only wild, but also just amplifies my gratitude for the opportunity. Say all this to say… be wise and direct with how you speak over your life. Speak life, have great energy, let your desires be known before God, believe, and work ya tail off. Nothing is guaranteed, of course, but at the same time… Its better to spend your energy believing on what you want than complaining about what you don’t have 🙏🏾.

Jannik Sinner on winning Wimbledon last year 🌱❤️ 🦊: “If I'm very honest with you, when I was a little kid, I never would have thought to be in the position. Not even to play here in Wimbledon, because it was so, so far, and me coming from a very small town, it's not realistic to think that I would play just in Wimbledon, and now having at least 1 trophy and seeing my name here next to all these incredible names. “I do remember the last point, how it was, and seeing also my family right there, my whole team, my brother...it has been amazing. It is definitely something I would love to feel again, I'm not lying, but in the same time, if it's not gonna happen, I did it once, and I do remember forever, you know, for the rest of my life, and it is truly special having my name next to all the other names here.” 🎥 stansportau

For anyone who believes they can’t do it - you can. You can get through this. Don’t forget what’s real in your life. Don’t forget to put your feet in the grass…

Steve Witkoff just delivered one of the most eye-watering moments from the Oval Office. As President Trump signed an executive order to battle drug addiction, Witkoff shared the emotional story of what Trump did for him after his son Andrew passed away from addiction. It was clear how much this all meant to him. WITKOFF: “The President is doing the same thing to me now that he did to me in 2017.” “So I want to tell the story about this.” “I came to the opioid conference and the president did not know I was coming because I was invited by the First Lady.” “And he leaned over and saw me in the aisle, and he looked at me and he said, Steve. And then he realized why I was there, because I had lost my son Andrew.” “And the President was an incredible friend, when I lost him, I lived in his building at 502 Park Avenue. And I remember when him and the First Lady came and I talked about this all the time.” “And so he took my hand and he said to me, come on up to the stage and tell the world about your boy Andrew.” “And of course, that was, you know, something that was really meaningful to me. But I got through it, and I talk about it all the time. I talked about it on the campaign trail and so forth.” “He is a very special man, and he’s begun and led the fight against opioid addiction and alcoholism.” “And it’s just my blessing to work for you sir.”

My own words about what happened last Saturday night. Best I can remember, how I felt in the middle of it, and what I hope to do next. I’ve appreciated all of your kind messages and prayers and help. I don’t expect much in the way of justice. Would be nice if that happened but it’s Portland. I know it’s a long listen, sorry about that. I tried to make it as short as possible.

Wanna know how I avoid being blackpilled? When people tell me how hard life is because the government, I remember how I was sleeping in a truck when I started my business, and Obama was president. I also remember making my first 6 figures doing what I love while he was still president, and he fucking sucked. I also remember how I went through a boom under Trump, and slowed down a little under Biden, but no matter who was in charge, I never once went back to sleeping in that fucking truck. You can’t black pill me, because if I thought like you, it would mean all the work I did to get here was just luck, and it fucking wasn’t. You’re in charge of your life, so go get a better fucking job and work your ass off to keep it, and stop blaming everyone else for why you aren’t where you want to be.

As part of my confirmation process to become a federal judge, 250 people who knew me were interviewed for the background check. If one person had said, “You know what I remember about Roy? He lies. You know what I remember about Attorney Altman? He hides evidence. You know what I remember about Mr. Altman? He doesn’t play fair,” the fact is, I wouldn’t be here today. That’s because the confirmation process is designed to find the best people to serve the country. And it's easy to promise to be good when you're swearing the oath of attorney or in a job interview or at your graduation ceremony. But it's a whole other thing when you haven't slept well in weeks and the guy on the other side of the case is a jerk. And the judge has you on an unreasonable timetable. It's in those moments that you got to dig deep. You got to go back to where you came from. And I want to tell you about how I did it for myself. In those moments when it was hard, when I felt that I couldn't do it any longer, I always thought of the people who sacrificed so much and worked so hard to give me the blessing of being whatever and wherever I am today.

Liam & alcohol addiction and substance use. Or maybe I should say Liam & depression Before any of you start calling him an alcoholic and drug addict again, let me tell you what addiction is. I'm not talking about the “dictionary“ definition; you can search for it yourself. I'm talking about the “real life” definition. Addiction is a survival mechanism. No one starts drinking out of nowhere or because they get bored at home. Addiction is much more than this. Addiction happens when the outside world is too much to bear and you have to find a way to survive. You're anxious, you're depressed, everything becomes too much and you don't know what to do. You don't want to feel anymore; you just want to be numb. So you start with “Just one glass.” and end with “Just one more.”, after having several. You know it’s not right at some point, but all you can think of is, “So what?”. That happens when you want to forget about the world. A world that can't understand you, a world that's too much to bear. The same goes for drugs. So, no, you don't start drinking or using substances for fun. Many of those who get on this path have a terrible depression. The problem with depression is that some can very easily hide it. There's one called high-functioning depression, and it’s the most dangerous one because no one can see it. You are crumbling on the inside but look happy and sunny on the outside. You usually do that because you realise the people around you don't and can't understand what you are going through. So you just hide it. Because it’s easier. Addiction is never the main problem, but that's all the people outside see. People never try to find the real problem. It’s easier to call someone addicted than to search for the actual reason that's behind it all. But we all know Liam was open about his struggles. He was in recovery, he tried his best to be fine. He fought every single second of his life to survive. That man went through so much sh*t some of you can't even imagine, in a world full of hate pointed at him. Yes, he probably had a bad depression too, among other things. And God forbid any of you to have a bad depression because you don't know how fucking hard it is to even wake up in the morning. Properly functioning requires a new level of mental strength. And he was fucking STRONG and BRAVE and KIND and I can go on for 2 days, and he DIDN'T deserve anything that happened to him. Keep this in mind. So, if you don't know about a subject, you don't have to talk about it. You know nothing. You have no idea what he'd been through. He openly talked about mental health and his struggles. He wore his heart out on his sleeve all the time. He was honest. And all you heard was “alcohol and drug use”. You never cared about him. You never cared about the people around him who didn't support him at all, the people who harmed him in a lot of different ways. You don't care at all. You should be embarrassed of yourselves for being this blind. Open your eyes. It’s already late but do it at least now

Stephanie Vaquer on Getting called up to the main roster, she says Shawn Michaels was like, "we need you here, and we want you here" “I remember because when I was in NXT, I love NXT. I felt at home. I remember many people say, okay, many people are waiting for you on Raw, on main roster, but at the same time Shawn Michaels is like, we need you here, and we want you here. “At the same time, I want to stay here, but I want to go to main roster. In that moment, I didn’t feel very good, because I’m still learning, and my English was not good. Now it’s better, not perfect, but better. Sometimes I feel like, no, I need more time. But at the same time no, I talked to myself and okay, I need to be brave and just do it. “So I feel good, because people on Raw and main roster made me feel so good. Made me feel at home too. Many different challenges and big challenges.” (Chris Van Vliet)

I’ve been trying to sit down for a while now and talk about what this record means to me but the truth is I feel like this record says it all. I’ve grown so much in the past few years and I have such a different view of love and life and loss. The highs and lows of the whirlwind have taught me a lot about what’s important and how to never give up on trying to find your inner peace. I think you’ll hear what I mean when you listen. Hope it means something to you too ❤️ My new record ‘Whirlwind’ is out now.

Mental Health tip for today… “Throw a party in your heart!!!” One of the best things about opening up fully about my mental health battles has been the learning journey I’ve since gone on. Now, as a result, I have new tools to fight my depression and anxiety, new rituals to navigate through that gray I live in. This is pretty cool and I learned it from a monk in Thailand (literally) and I now use it every night of my life to change what nights look like for me. I used to go to sleep absolutely dreading those first 15 minutes I laid my head on my pillow because I didn’t know how to like or love myself and I was laying there with someone I felt didn’t deserve to be liked or loved. Now, I use this tip to end my night on a MUCHHHH better plane and as a result start my day a little better. Give it a listen and if it resonates with you give it a try. Hope it helps gang! #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #depression #anxiety #unbreakable

in a recent TMZ interview, Lil Durk took the time to talk about his journey in rehab for his drug problems, wanting to help the struggling youth in Chicago, and about being a better role model/leader for the people who look up to him. “I really knew what I wanted… I wanted better, I wanted to be a better man, a better father, a better leader.” “[Rehab] helped a lot. Thinking clear, my main goal is peace” He also talked about what lead him to seek help, and he said he was battling his addiction to hard drugs, which took over his life. “[the drugs] dont make me, you know what im sayin?” Durk also puts an emphasis on wanting to break stigmas around rehab and getting help for mental health issues, which I think is very much needed in this day and age. The interview wraps up with Durk talking about wanting to build a rehabilitation center in Chicago to help the inner city youth by working with the mayor and governor. His ultimate goal is to make the world a better place, starting with his home. “I wanna show my actions instead of talking… I wanna change the world as much as possible” So much respect to Durk for being so open and transparent about his journey while trying to educate people and lead them down a better path. this is what its all about 🙏🏽🙏🏽

I was not always a mother who knew. In fact, I remember bristling at this part of Sis. Beck's talk. I was a young mother of three small, busy boys, and the last thing I wanted to be told was that my role in the grand plan of happiness was to do dishes and laundry. If I only knew then what I know now. What I know now is how truly important it is for a mother to be home with her children. That the "mundane" tasks of motherhood actually refine a woman. That serving your family only increases your love for them. That there is nothing more beneficial for your children than cultivating and creating a home where they are safe, loved and taught the principles of the gospel. That what the world offers is only a distraction from what's most important. I'd love to say that I'm now perfect at doing the dishes, the laundry and keeping my home. I am not. But I no longer feel like those tasks are a burden. I see them as a meaningful and important contribution to the most important thing in all of time and eternity...my family.

lando: “dementia is not something that just people have as they get older. you can be born with it, young people can have it. and it affects over 50 million people around the world. so it's something that none of us want to have. and i'm a guy that my whole life is about memories. it's about creating those pictures in your mind. and the last thing i ever want to do is lose that as i get older. that's what everything in my life is about. so it's cool that i can go out and track. i can have my fun. i can go and race. but there's a kind of second meaning behind it all. and at the same time, i get to do something good for the world. and that's something that i love” ❤️❤️

The importance of giving back is something I learned from my parents. They taught my siblings and me that we had a responsibility to help make life better for others, in whatever way we could. What I love most about giving back is how it can deepen our connection to each other and to our communities—something I think many of us need right now. And best of all, anyone can be a giver, because everyone has something to offer the world. Giving Tuesday is just around the corner, and I can’t wait to share more about my plans. Stay tuned 😊

My name is Jay DeShong. My family and I have been battling addiction and bipolar disorder for generations. At 13, I lost my 29-year-old mother to an overdose. This week, I lost my 19-year-old sister to an overdose. They both lost their lifelong, personal battles with addiction and their own minds. After over a decade of learning how to navigate the death of my best friend, I want to share what I’ve learned about myself and addiction. I’d also like to offer advice to three main groups: those struggling with addiction, friends and family of people battling addiction, and those who may not fully understand the challenges of “real life” problems.

“…You notice what I did? It’s no longer a derangement, it’s an addiction, and has reduced them to one play: he is a fascist, he is Hitler, and everyone around him, including us, we’re just bad people…” -Greg Gutfeld

Kelvin Sampson on having his family around: “I'm old. It's a young man's game, I’ll be out soon enough. Being able work with my kids and have grandkids around, it been the best thing about the job. It's not all the winning. You know, when you win a lot, you win a lot. I appreciate that, but I understand how hard it is to do.” “Having Kellen has been a Godsend, because he's so good at it. Some days I just get tired of hollering at Cenac to get in the stance. I just say ‘You take him, and I'll go.’ I’ll say, ‘Let's see, what time does Maisy and Kylen get home from school today?’ Yeah, so I'll go play the afternoon with them and let Kellen handle Cenac and Flemings and Harwell and Chase, all those freshmen.” “But everybody needs to do that occasionally, have four freshmen on their team and run the gauntlet of the Big 12 with them. Everybody should have to do that at least once. I did it once. I don't plan on doing it again, but I did it once.”
