Interesting hearing your story brah glad you're sober now. I just smoke weed and take Kratom but I used to be a bad alcoholic, and my best friend is currently addicted to meth.
as an ex mdma and coke abuser, I COMPLETELY relate to a big factor in my addiction being ease of social interaction and feeling like I could talk to people freely... the confidence I got on those drugs seemed like a miracle cure to my social awkwardness and inhibition. So when I lived in LA it was a huge problem, because i was able to become this socially adept extrovert who partied all the time and made new friends easily, when in reality I am more of an introverted, one-on-one kind of person (which is not as rewarded by the culture of that city!). also andrew we matched on bumble when i was in that phase lol and were about to go to davey waynes i think? then we got unmatched or something, but yeah i probably would have used drugs just to avoid any social anxiety in that situation.. which seems crazy to me now, jeez.
I've never used drugs (I use to smoke weed) but I relate to you on being introverted, awkward, and inhibited. I have a question. Now that you don't use drugs anymore, are you still as outgoing as you were when you used them? Or did that feeling completely go away?
I’m an ex meth addict as well. I was on it for almost 2 years and I’ll be honest, I liked doing it. I loved the energy I got from it. But it was also the darkest time of my life. The emptiness and darkness I felt during those times is unexplainable. Even though I’ve suffered from depression since I was a teen, I didn’t feel that depressed when I was using but there was a noticeable ‘darkness’ that I felt all the time and It was awful. I am so glad I was able to break away from it.
The mindset thing he said is extremely true. You need 100% strength 100% of the time and any weakness is risk for a relapse. It’s really hard to go back to an old lifestyle after being addicted.
Sleeping in a car doesn’t exactly scream healthy mental state, especially when its not like a van. Hope everything works out for this guy. I too want to fall into a large sum of money.
Maybe use landscape mode instead of portrait for the tablet video call... Will fit better with the vid dimensions and you could zoom in the screen a lil more through that
I think some of your questions might not be very appropriate. I know you try to keep it very real, but asking where you can get meth and going into details about how to find it could give someone watching ideas. I still really like your content, thank you for your hard work.
po1980 I’ll admit that was screw up on my part. Alcohol most definitely is a drug. Everyone’s recovery is different though and I find alcohol not to be addictive the way ice is to me
Jake McCollum Not really a screw up if you asked me. Our society doesn’t really count alcohol as a drug which is the screw up. It’s drug addiction or alcoholism. Rather have you drink alcohol than do meth, but hopefully one day you could kick the booze too.
OH SHIT! FUCKING DALLAS, GODDAMMIT! It's fucking EVERYWHERE and anywhere. I don't even use drugs and I ended up trying meth there. Absolutely stupid xD
Andrew's hair : *loading 5%...*
They haven't optimized it for all platforms yet. I'm watching on switch and he has an afro...
It looks like the loading screen when you start a new minecraft world
I like the hair.
Andrew's views : loading 5%...
@@exzisd ahahahahhahahahahahah
Sooooooo, quick question...
Who is the ex meth addict in this video?
I'm confused..
@Terrin Bertholf lol he was making a joke bcs of Andrews hair
Terrin Bertholf *Woosh*
Both, I think
Joakim seriously?
👋🏼
Thanks for having me on! 🙏🏼

Andrews hair is the representation of how much sanity I have left
Or how much clarity he has now
You are not alone. There is around 8 billion of us.
How many still have a job.
Ironically that's how I cut my hair during a Meth binge.
and the worst part is you thought it looked good at the time

When you're doing so bad that your drug dealer recommends rehab
AANation360 😂
His haircut is the definition of „Loosing All Hope Was Freedom“
The amount of hair Andrew has left represents my hope for this coronavirus of going away anytime soon.
Boohoo 😭
Why tho? It's looking more and more positive lately. Successful treatments, over-supply, curve is flattening.
It's been 7 months 😭😭😭
Lol
"if i wanted to go get meth right now, where should I go?"
*looks into camera*
I can't believe he asked him that.
Thank you for sharing your story with us, Jake! Sharing your experience helps others recover!

Comments on this video:
1) Andrew's hair.
2) Andrew being the meth user.
3) Irrelevant Coronavirus comparisons.
"THE BUST OF THE CREATURE"
Blind Fox the fact that they called him boss lol
"ex meth head" BRUH Is there any other way you could've titled the video lmao
LMAO
This was A1 insightful. Thanks Andrew, and great isolation setup. Be safe out there everyone!
Matthew Rawley 👋🏼
Damn he really cut all the ramen off of his head
lmao
Andrew please do another interview with this guy about living in a car
Francis Griffith I’d be down 👍🏼

Flatts 🖤
I like this short and sweet and to the point interview
I thought he was going to say “Try Meth” at the beginning of the video.
So Andrew did you end up blurring out the bust of that creature? Did you cut it off?
Of course. You don't say no to Brody Brain Cancer
I love your conversational interviews.
Dear Andrew,
You'll be a ball of light someday soon.
Smooches

raiders18dr Long term it’d obviously take a toll on your body. I don’t plan on doing it forever!
Jake McCollum it’s cool you are making content out of it. Keep it up & you’ll look back & be proud of how far you’ve come
raiders18dr That’s the plan homie 💪🏼 Just documentation 📝
'Brody Brain Cancer' has me in stitches hahahaha (also sorry i texted didn't know you had another)
I can’t find your chatting with?
@@kdog9863 He put it on unlisted because he was embarrassed of its views or something. I have it on a playlist on my channel.
Yo I saw you at the Venice skatepark one day. You rolled in there sat there and walked out. Fresh cut
A homeless guy wants to go into real estate. Yeah, I sure hope he does.
There are no money down programs that work but it takes knowledge and good credit
Damn you got me
Thank you, I will! Saving a lot of money doing what I’m doing right now.
Tyler Agreed
@@JakeMcCollum good luck mate, I hope you never stop believing in yourself
Getting real Eric Foreman vibes here
9:13 when you consider selling all of your shit and living in your car
Andrew apparently can’t afford to keep the heat on in his house nor can he manage a decent haircut. We must band together and support his Patreon
Pierce Hasadinton DO IT
It's the darn virus you can't get haircuts or work

He reminds me of a skinny Big Head from Silicon Valley...
Yes! I knew that guy was reminding me of someone from TV. That is exactly right! Big Head- Silicon Valley.
“Grindr? I hardly know her!”-Probably Michael Scott
Intro: "Are you bored at home with nothing to do? Try out Meth"

Andrew's like 'shit I kinda wanna try it now'
Can you interview an ex Google techlead
duuude the shaved hair actually looks really good on you

Andrew: do you do any drugs now?

OH SHIT! FUCKING DALLAS, GODDAMMIT! It's fucking EVERYWHERE and anywhere. I don't even use drugs and I ended up trying meth there. Absolutely stupid xD
Bro getting meth off grinder just sounds to funny
damn g-eazy lost it
I really thought at the beginning of the video it was gonna say 'Are you bored at home? Try some meth!'
His head looks nice
Haha, this is so janky. Could've tied in video/audio feed directly. Or at least use landscape.
Please, chatting with professional gamer !
The end was not awkward at all
Welcome to america.. this sounds like a dystopia tale. europe should send help before the working class starts eating the rich
wait, start eat the rich!
I was on suboxone for 15 years now I’m clean. Good interview here. If it’s about drugs.
JasontheImppaler even took Xanax with it
Andrew, that bit of hair at the back needs to be shaved like the rest,. Please! 😭😂
Did anyone expect Andrew said try out meth at home?
Andrew is now becoming the meth addict
Wtf is going on here
HAHHAHAHHAHA the hair
I said on a previous video this pandemic is the best thing to happen to Andrew Hales and his channel.
This is exactly why lmao
