I appreciate this conversation. I've had Crohn's Disease since I was 10, and I think there's a misconception that chronic illnesses are physical and that's it. But it can impact every part of your life, from your career, financial wellness, social and romantic relationships, everything. People underestimate this.
man this pod i havent actually had a connection to a pod really yeah people have had great people and minds on, but when you guys talked about how he slowed down way before you i felt that when i had my accident and got a tbi and sezuires after and taking daily meds for it and how it effects your mental health its honestly a good pod im glad the algorithm gave me the bigger bigby podcast
Thank you for this video -- I have been dealing with chronic health issues for the past 14 years, so it was nice to hear that reflection. Hope to be good by the end of the year 🤞🏻.
I remember him from when he played Michael on General Hospital. Hands down the most unstable approach to that character. I loved it. Sad to hear he has chronic health issues. I do too and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
I've dealt with numerous health issues growing up (and still do) and it is not easy to be constantly sick, and it's even harder to not be able to do much about it. Musculoskeletal issues, Marfan syndrome, seborrheic dermatitis, chronic pain etc etc. It's tough on your body, relationships, and especially on your mental. I am so happy to hear that Drew's doing much better now. Your 30s are pretty good man 👍🏽. Enjoy life with the ones you love as much as you can. 😊
i have a chronic illness called gastroparesis and i can sadly admit i hav always had a hard time making and keeping friends. i was definitely that lonely looking sickly kid at school
only 8 minutes in but damn … this podcast has really grown to be my favorite thing in my feed. i love devon and all the people he brings around. especially drew. i relate heavy 😭
@@growingupwithdevonpod grew up with you brother 😭🫂 and i don’t plan on stoppin any time soon. we’re all in this big weird beautifully horrifying mess together.
Really? Is my least favorite 😢😮. Just 5 minutes and already he is all closed up to new friends, and the type of person that only care about the people he knows when a child
@@growingupwithdevonpodalso lived with chronic disease and none people is that 'difficult' to 'catch up' or 'understan'. Sad to feel that the only cool people you can meet you already met in your first 20years. Is very auto limiting
I have vitiligo (an autoimmune disease as well - Michael Jackson had it, for reference) and listening to this episode has been very nice to hear, I also felt a little bit like I had to become my own doctor, and I still am. 😅
28:40 It woke me up as well, a visual clue that I was doing something wrong. But also like a given name that’s hard to spell/pronounce, it’s almost like a test for the ones who care enough to not care about your skin, or to remember how to say your name 😂
Know many people with chronic health issues and great to bring awareness to your fans about it.❤

@growingupwithdevonpod for sure keep up the good work👍
As someone with autoimmune diseases (cause I'm apparently collecting them all), Drew is so real for saying "I felt worse" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Enjoyed a lot of the convos in this vid, gave me some insight on things I don't really talk to others about. Thanks for the content.

"Dis scrot is uh-mazin'!"
Your voices sound so much alike. It was hard to tell who was talking while listening😂
Drew, I loved you as Michael on Gh

Find balance, I stopped dyeing my hair, stopped eating pork 😂 and too many hot Cheetos. No sunscreen either for me.
