depression sucks Mike. You're not alone buddy. Get yourself healthy.
He’s doing MUCH better already
@@justrebecca412 That's great news glad to hear that.
ketamine is just a drug does nothing, mental health issues are just nutrition deficiencies, 92 percent of the popularion doesnt even know there is even such a thing. a preservitive free myers cocktail iv and d3 injection will cure you within a week. you just do it once a month. you cant get enough vitamans from food from how you eat. the past 30 years farming has been to toxic depletes nutrition
No one is depressed if they want to be. If dark thoughts come into your head, they stop when you think about something nice.
@@JanneVirtanen-kd3dy your wrong its nutrition deficiencies, mainly deficient in b vitamins magnesium and d. your not taught that cause the fake healthcare system wants you sick. 92 percent of population doesnt even know about nutrition deficiencies
“You got me that’s a sure thing” I had tears in my eyes as I’m also in a extreme battle with depression I’ve almost lost twice and ended up in the hospital twice I don’t fit in with my peers I’m only 21 I’ve never had a girlfriend and have this crippling loneliness and I’m currently failing at everything in my life I have no one to talk to so to see someone who has been very successful in life also struggling it makes me feel more human so thanks for sharing
You aren’t alone. Depression lies. Anxiety lies. Depression tells you that you’re failing. The only way you fail is if you quit. Stay and fight.
I know I'm a stranger to you, but you're not alone at all. The world is as beautiful as it is cruel. It is our minds that choose which one we get to live in. Build a strong mind. Create healthy thoughts and keep creating them. They can be the only light in the darkness.
A good piece of advice Eddie hall had was he put all his depression and anxiety into the gym. I think it’s a really good advice. I take out all my emotions in the gym
I feel you man… I’m dealing with a similar problem. I’m also 21 and have also never had real love yet, which is also pretty badly depressing me at this point. I don’t wanna seek attention saying this but I hope that by leaving this comment I can let you know that you’re not alone in this bro, and today’s world is for sure a cruel one… and even though it may not seem like it right now, hell, I myself am even starting to lose hope at ever finding that special someone, but quitting means that you’re for sure never gonna find her. Keep going man, keep working on yourself and even if the progress is slow, who knows your lucky day might come sooner than you think 🤟🏻💪🏻
If you wanna talk to somebody… well, feel free.
You're going to be good brother i have a great feeling at least. Dont get bitter and angry like some young men do be patient. Keep that heart and you'll find the right one eventually you're still very young you haven't even hit your prime yet physically mentally or spiritually brother i promise keep on growing and bettering yourself and youll be so thankful and proud of the love you get someday.
Sorry to hear it’s been difficult losing your mom. I wasn’t aware you were going through that. Take care, Michael.
I lost my Mother in 2018 and my Father last week. Took care of them and watched them pass right in front of me. It’s definitely a life changing experience.
@kingwillie206 We love you brother (from the arm wrestling community).
@@kingwillie206 Sorry for your loss. That is so terribly difficult, the loss of parents or children is the hardest of things you can experience in life.
We love you MMT! Thank you for taking care of our boy Mrs. Rebecca!!!
Man you got an amazing woman there. Ive been going through debilitating panic attacks about 2 a day. Im so unbelievably tired mentally. Its taken a massive toll been in and out of the hospital thinking somethings wrong with me or im about to die just to be told im perfectly healthy. But im never going to give up. Im proud of you for taking action. Youve given me hope in myself idk why but to see such a big strong guy like you going through it makes me realize it just human to struggle and were going to get through this together.
Just lifted you up in prayer
@@ManOvGodthat sound retarded to a godless human being. Also, it's pushy, so fy ❤
I went through this about 15 years ago. I was the exact same, I thought I was dieing, and every single slightest thing that was wrong with me would set it of. Eventually it just gradually went away, I think I realised that I couldn't control everything, and it seemed to work with my breathing. 1 tip I can give you is to work on your breathing daily, with slow deep breathes. It will pass eventually. Best of luck buddy. 👍
Keep your head up man, the night is darkest just before the dawn🙏
@@ManOvGod thank you 🙏🏽
You and Rebecca’s exchange during the first treatment was adorable
I too have dealt with forms of depression over the last couple of years. Thank you both for sharing your journey of hope. From one human to another Michael, I wish for you to feel that you are back on your path. I will use these droplets of knowledge you have shared here on my journey back to my path as well.
Can relate. Lost my father in 2018 and have never been the same ever since. Here's to your recovery, Michael. 🍺
Life long anexity/depression survivor here ! Don’t worry Mike you can do this ! Best wishes on your journey to wellness.

I love that you're being so vulnerable and honest about your mental health and about how these treatments made you feel. Thanks for sharing!
Once again, fantastic videography. Your content has been top tier lately.
Man. The struggles u guys have! Hope u solider through and find yourself grounded in the end
I have so much respect for putting all of these out there and showing this side of yourself. Role model qualities
You're not alone Michael, dealing with it myself too. Stay strong bud, much love, from Michigan 💪🇺🇸
Thanks for sharing Michael. You are very strong to get help for depression. You are a great example to other men who struggle but are hesitant to seek help.
Depression sucks...but you have a lot of support..and your love of arm wrestling fuils your drive ... I always try to have something to look ahead to.. it helps a lot.. prayers to you my friend 💪💪💪
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Here I was waiting to hear about Devon's experience on Ketamine and BOOM we get your experience. Thank you for sharing this!
AMAZING film. Well bloody done to both of you for such a wonderful insight into your life
Appreciate you documenting this, while finding and getting help for yourself on your journey, you're also helping others by spreading awareness, big respect 💪🏻
Let’s go big fella! You’ve got this!! We all behind you mate! Bayden from Outback Opal hunters 🤠👍
My depression is severe as well,glad u have the option to take care of it,god bless 🙏
I have looked into ketamine too. It was through the mail which surprised me . Cool to see this video. Thanks and best of luck!
Mike!!!!!! Man I’ve been riddled with depression since 2022. I found armwrestling videos while I was in a rehab facility of you and Devon a Ron bath and the other guys. You’re one of the guys that helped pull me out an early grave! I know u can do this. Sometimes when they label it it makes it feel bigger or worse. It’s not I promise there’s a combo out there for you and you’ll be better than you’ve prolly remembered in a while
Thank you for sharing your story, Michael. Bless you.
Hey bro watching your channel has given me loads of respect for you as a man and an athlete!
Can’t wait to watch you get back to the top.
Wonderful insight into this kind of struggle and the attitude and dedication it takes to come out of it. Cheers - we're all looking forward to the climb to the top.
Tearing up watching this. Being a fan since WAL days, I never would have thought I would see you be so open about mental health. Showing vulnerability in mental health isn't something that comes easy for our generation. Hang in there!
Good luck Michael, great to see treatments like this being explored and used more. 🙏
Love the honesty and I can completely relate to this.
We miss ya, big guy. I also really enjoy how well you commentate matches. You really can do whatever you want in this sport, however you choose to be there. Stay strong.
Good on you for sharing your difficult journey.
Thank you. This is the straw that I needed I think to finally do it
We all been there, pal!!! Depression is awful, it sucks you out like a black hole. Drains every single drop of you. But when you bounce back - nothing can stop you! I really want to see you on top again! Even virtually - there are a lot of people who are with you in this journey.

Much respect for going thru it.
this man is amazing. keep fighting Michael and everyone else going through what you are going through
Glad to see you getting better buddy. We all struggle from time to time and its encouraging to see you beating that struggle a moving forward. Thank you for that
Im currently doing the same my friend. Its beyond a miracle. I coukdnt get out if bed couldn't eat lost 35 lbs it was misery. I started the treatment im on my 3rd session and its so profound. Literally its a u-inverse i got to see and experience everything we are all one litetally. I cant say enough just ket it come n ket it be rnjoy your journeys my friend!!!! Wirds cant explain what i saw. Mine lasted hours i mean 4 hours if intense visions and bringing my innerchild out. I was in my higher state if existence having conversations with my ego and how my ego has such an effect on our daily lives. Love mu friend!!!!
I feel you need no cameras eye fold on listening to high frequency music beautiful experience!!!! Life changing!!!!
Wow. What a great turn for the monster. It looks like the support from Rebecca made all of the difference in the success of the treatment.
Best content you've put out, amazing!
As someone who was addicted to meth, ketamine saved my life. It took me out of this world, everything slowed down, i was able to heal. I have been clean for a couple of years now. Ketamine saved my life!! I hope michael sees this, we are rooting for you brother!! You are a champion and have suceeded at life. Much love!! 18 years of addiction, and i was in ICU 5 Times from overdosing. Love yall!! # wedorecover!!
I am doing MUCH better! And thank you for the encouragement!
My mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer last year. It has been rough and have felt depressed. Watching this video was very inspiring. You're doing great!

I can't wait for your comeback bro! Keep pushing!
Really awesome to have access this, hope you get the results you're after. I only wish I could do anything about my worthless existence
So glad you won! Depression is easier to fight when the world smiles on you. Thanks for the inspiration at the match that there are things bigger than us!
Ive been in the same boat the last 2 years gained over 3 stone in weight, depression sucks and for me personally i declined every single pill offered to me, i spoke out spoke to all the correct people and thats what got me on the mend personally, ive got depression anxiety and ptsd, its very important to have good honest people around you at these times not lick arses who tell you what you want to hear but more importantly what you need to hear, thankfully im on the mend and have lost 22 pounds in weight and have seen the light, everyone is different but in my own personal experience medical drugs wasnt the answer the people around me were, hope everything goes to plan and you get mentally well very soon
Glad to hear it helped! Thanks for sharing your experience.
Got the moon boots! Ketamine is fantastic stuff for depression and anxiety. You made a great choice of treatment!
Proud of you MMT! You sought help and are taking steps to get better. Stick it out. Get through it. Time is your ally... everything will get better in time.
Really enjoyed this
good to see you doing well.
Your journey was once my journey, im still travelling but I am enjoying it, keep travelling brother.
Man big Respekt that you do Something about your Feeling Not good. To actually recocnise and start Something ist the biggest step. I am really Happy for you. Keep on going. You got this. Love. T.
Brother i was there last year for a few months. It’s such a weird feeling not having control of your brain. You want so hard to be better but your brain won’t give you any optimism. I had feeling of doom and not wanting to do anything. Sleep was very hard for me. Finally my psychiatrist got me on lexapro and seroquel for sleep and now i have 0 anxiety or depression. You will get there. It’s about finding the right medication and balance if it’s pills or ketamine. You will see your mom again I promise ❤
Looking forward to the return Todd. Take your time, and you will surely come back stronger than ever. Greetings from Denmark!
Holy crap Michael, I saw that log press and immediately wanted to see you in strongman. I bet you'd be a great overall competitor
I hope you are doing well my friend. The worst wars are the ones people are going through mentally and tell no one about.. you, sir, are brave for taking action!
Takes a really man to put his feelings and emotions out there. Proud of the person and arm wrestler you are! And glad to hear you’re headed down a good path
Good luck Mike, i also struggle with depression at times
This was a very heartwarming video. Wish you the best monster! ❤
Congratulations on yer progress, keep kickin ass 🤘y'all have a badass day🤘
UA-cam algorithm boosting comment 💪 ... beautiful. it can be very tough and scary to deal with emotions. hidden darkness in the back of your head, things we want to avoid, and can't put a simple band-aid on. knowing u can have power of it, rather than it having power over u. knowing u r not alone, in this world and above.
MMT putting this out there can be tough too, and letting others see, they r not alone as well, hopefully helps others.
ouTube algorithm boosting comment stop saying this man just do the comment nobody cares
@@tecmissle9256 u care, and I appreciate your support, we need more people like u 🙃
Much love Monster! Wish you all the best 🙏
I’m pulling for you brother you’re mentally strong you’re gonna be good and Mrs. monster will take care of you. I’m ready to see you back on top.
I've suffered from depression all my life. It's a hell of a thing because it's in your mind. It's taking me many many years to conquer my thoughts and feelings. I promise you. Things can get better. 🙏
This makes me happy to see. Good luck 😁
Sending you all the best Mike ❤❤❤
You got fans all over the world. Keep it up.
you still are and always will be Monster Michael Todd, hope to see 3.0 better than ever soon
my dad had a major stroke when i was 12, then i became momma's boy for many years, then lost her to a quick and brutal bout of cancer. now its just me and my pops. taking care of him and living in full fledged depression that makes even the most basic things a monumental task. He gives me a purpose tho.. I wish these treatments weren't reserved for the wealthy but that's life. I hope MMT makes a strong comeback soon. Armwrestling is not as entertaining without him.
I been there keep going! You got this!!!
Awesome Mike, rooting for you.
you got this michael , your blessed with an amazing family and life , now lets get this armwrestling title back!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry you are battling through this. But it takes a strong man to document and tell everyone your story. Keep fighting and get back to that table.
Depression can't put a warrior like you down! Hope to see you healthy again soon 💪
Cheers from Brazil!
Glad everything is falling into place for you. You have the right people and support by your side. The Armwrestling community isn’t the same without its Monster
Wish you the best 🙏
Michael please also look into taking Omega 3 EPA 500, and magnesium glycinate. I would also make sure Vitamin D levels are high enough, (over 50). Deficiencies in all are correlated w/ depression.
I've been several weeks off from work precisely from going through some s**** and also found out that my levels of vitamin D are very low. I can tell how different it feels now that I am popping my levels up!
Micheal is my age and that is around the time when you start losing some of the most important people in your life for most of us. You can be fully functional, then suddenly lose a friend, friends, parents etc. and suddenly things change. I watched both of my parents take their final breaths and it definitely changed me. I never cared or thought much about death until then.
Dealing with that myself. Very brave if you to admit it and actually bring us through your journey. Your world class mike. Remember that. Win or lose it's the competition and the wanting to get better and improve that you truly enjoy. Remember that buddy
I recommend the Wim Hof breathing method as well, Michael. It helped me tremendously.
Hard thing losing your mother, losing mine recently its never easy to stay focused. Looking forward to see you make that move towards the top again MMT!
Same. I lost both parents.
Good stuff
MDD is treatable, my guy. God bless
I'm in the same depression hole problem or worse but unlike you sir, i got no loved one, no career, no path that i feel like i want to follow etc, so i hope you get through it cuz i don't see me making it :) and even tho i've never arm wrestled myself it was always a fun time watching ^.^
I didn’t “want” to follow anything. I “wanted” to not be here. I don’t know what made me take this step but I did. I have faith help is out there for you too. Just don’t stop looking.
Stay with us brother. I often feel the same way as you described. Maybe join an arm wrestling club in your area. I've been trying to build up the courage to do that myself. I found one on the Armbet app.
Praying for you brother 🙏
Amen. Praise the Lord. Very encouraged by the scripture at the end. I’m praying for you.
Some people don't understand what happens to you mentally when you dedicate your life to something and you experience a setback. You're not giving up, but when you can't seem to get it going again, it drives you crazy.i wish nothing but the best for anyone suffering from depression.
Michael’s depression and anxiety were only partly due to his injury. The majority (or the actual last straw) was from the decline then passing of his mother.
I hope u figure it the F out because strength sports history is still being written and you are a main character! Much love Monster!
Happy to see you being open minded enough to try ketamine Mike. The people I know who has done it has all good things to say about it. It also seems to have helped Devon a lot. I think Devon is supposed to be doing like 7-8 trips the next few weeks. I think it has helped him dramatically in his prep for levan.
I lost my mom in 2018 and lost my career of 14 years and my marriage all in the same year. I wish ketamine had been available back then I would have done it.
I ended up getting on 50mg of pristiq, it’s definitely helped. I don’t feel depressed at all anymore. Just motivated every morning to get stronger, smarter and work harder.
But I definitely think I will try ketamine soon.
Thanks for being open to the public about this Mike, only makes us all like you that much more for being so honest
The quote at the end put me on team Todd forever
Amen 🙏 God Bless
@@MonsterMichaelToddyou guys 2 keep pushing.❤
Stay strong Mike we miss you pulling some big boys again, lost of love and support you're very strong 💪
It'd be interesting to see how you'd do with Ahyuasca/Toad. Super curious how that would be.
Now he is kicking ass and taking numbers.
All the best to you. Heal well. 👍
I’d like to try this . I’ve got severe ptsd , major depressive disorder , general anxiety disorder .
Stay strong brother! We love you!
Keep it up Michael !!!!
🙏
Hi Michael, sorry to hear you’ve been having a difficult time.
