I spent two years of my life addicted to a drug called Viagra, it was the hardest two years of my life.
Jheez hope your OK lol
I'm getting there. It was hard though. Thank u
HArd lie I mean hardly 😂
Love you
I hope your life if pointing in the right direction now.
Hi James I've been watching ur podcasts for the last few months, I've subscribed 😁 I'm 30 I have cerebral palsy wheelchair bound lost my mum at 13 dad at 19 severe anxiety and I've had ah drink problem since ah lost ma dad, am now 4 years sober off my own back, so aye people can change 👌 well done for opening up I can relate to ur story xx
Amazing Laura proud of you xx
Thank u same 2 u 👌 xx
That is such an inspiration Laura, thank you for commenting! Yes people can change! lives can be different, new, hopeful, giving to others. It must feel incredible to be free of the alcohol. Stoked for you. All the very best!!🙂
Ty Jo am on my 5 year sober now 😁 it's a scary chance at first, but we'll worth it 💜 xx
@@lauragodfrey9261 😃that’s so cool! Well worth it indeed!! Yeah life is just better without drink imo. 12yrs, I just make better decisions without it so alcohol isn’t for me🙂 I really like hearing other people decide to do what’s actually good for them.......and being bold with it😃.
James I just wanted to thankyou, I had a rough upbringing aswell. I always thought gambling was a quick fix after never having money. Im 34 now and ive finally realised its been the cause of all my problems for the last 15+ years. After stumbling upon your podcasts a few months ago you have given me the inspiration to turn my life around. Im a single dad and I now have a completely different and positive outlook going forward, to give me and my son a better life. Keep up the good work 👍
Now I understand better why James has become the nation's favorite podcast! A very real and insightful Life experience that he shares candidly in here. Like him the book that changed my life was "The Power of Now" (and all the other books by Eckhart Tolle) so I can really relate. And Elliot Reeves does a great job at interviewing a great interviewer!!!
👍🏼
Amazing interview James, the best thing to come out of this quarantine bollox is finding your channel 👍
Cheers brother

Hi James, I've been watching your podcasts for a while now, but I found your story/testimony really inspiring. I am 34, I was born with a cerebral cyst that went undetected for 13 years and I've had my fair share of battles. Gaining employment has been extremely difficult because employers down the south of England where I am are reluctant to employ with brain conditions. Of course, it gets me down, the boredom and I started drinking. I am still unemployed, but my mindset has changed though it is still quite challenging, not drinking as much as I have been doing online workouts. Watching these podcasts really does good to show that even the impossible can be made possible if we work at it.
What an insight, I absolutely love this interview. So down to earth and real. I have sat at my desk all afternoon looking at motivational speakers. Definitely hit a nerve - as someone who had lost themselves and i am trying to claw the old me back it really helps to know that there is someone who gets it. From the outside I may have a lot of blessings but the mental torture I put myself through day in day out is cripling and ruining relationships with those closest to me. I need to sort my shit out lol
Kelly Cusack and you will kelly you just have to believe in yourself and dig deep xxx
you don't need to see the full staircase to take the first step. Liking that
John Alexander 👍🏼
@@JamesEnglish I need you advices about something is that ok mate
"if your dreams don't scare you, there not big enough", what a great saying. 👍👍👍
Telling the story of most lads coming through council estates in Britain can relate to, growing up watching and hearing bad situations then partying and going wild as it’s all they no before growing up and gaining experience in life and realising that’s it’s the little things what matter!! Well done James I watch your podcasts of old crime figures who have a story tell your doing well pal good luck 👍
Guys got balls to explaining his situation like this. Well done James 💪🏼
Great interview James honest your doing great with your podcasts keep it going 👍
Thanks brother
@@JamesEnglish every word you said was true still wearing the badge James day at a time 👍 been there
Sounds exactly like me. Was a wrongern in my 20s..violence, steroids, cocaine, womanising, bankruptcy, alcoholism.
All comes crashing down. Then you either are reborn or carry on into hell on earth. Was a long road back and I didnt have a spiritual awakening until 10 years later. Which was totally unexpected. And very painful..but has opened my eyes to the world. I'm glad I was blessed like you by higher powers to follow this path and help others .
Up at 5am too

Respect mate
I am 10 years clean of heroin and crack and have never felt better. Will always be in recovery and each day is sometimes a challenge to get through however I have now gained the skills to get through. Made some special friends along the way. Addiction is so so deep. Often others don’t understand it but it is about the only subject that I know can be talked about for hours and hours and still only touch the surface. God bless you James. I totally get you. You are a good , deep man xxxxx
Hi James, this video has had a big effect on me. Can’t thank you enougj. Ive been a compulsive gambling addict for 20 years, lost around 250k but hurt and lied to good people. Also the drink and cocaine problems that came with trying to eacape the shame of it. Im on the right track now and watching this helps me to stay that way. Thanks very much and keep up the good work mate x
Alan Murray thanks for the support brother. And happy that you are also seeing what needs to be changed so keep going.
@@JamesEnglishinspirational mate. You've helped a lot of cunts mate. You tell it how it is
your defo on a path of self discovery, abundance is measured in kindnes, and its infectious, like your laugh, keep passing it on. excellent interview👍.
Thanks Michele
Only just come across this interview James, after watching so many of your podcasts past month , it’s lovely to hear your story . Sometimes we think everyone has this “perfect” life & cuz u r so strong & successful now it’s hard to think of your own struggles and addictions.. it proves we can all turn it around & take some strength from the past . Your a great guy & love your honestly 💗 x x keep it going with the interviews please cuz I’m slightly addicted to them!!! 🙈🤣
Thanks Ellie
🤣🤣🤣👍🏼❤️
One of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. James you’re an inspiration, Sir.
Hi James.. this interview really changed my mindset and I was exactly the same for years.. wasn't really a drinker.. Just socially I drank but when I did it would lead to cocaine.. I used to think to myself I didn't have a problem. But I obviously did cuz couldn't drink without taking cocaine.. At first it's just a thing you did with ya mates why out drinking. Next thing your drinking n taking the coke at home without no one knowing.. It's a slippery slope. Once I'd drink and take coke you find yourself lying to those close to you and I'd ruin relationships and jobs I've lost because of drink n cocaine.. I've changed it around but not 💯 there yet has I do rarely go out for a beer n tend to want a line everything your second pint goes down.. But I have kicked the beer out of my life now and I'm a totally different person. And my mindset is great now.. Set me own business up and in a good place mentally.. I seen you at Blackpool pleasure beach last Sunday and was going to come over and tell you thanks for this interview really hit home to Me and changes how I was living.. Didn't want to intrude though so didn't introduce me self.. Anyway thanks James for this interview and thanks for letting me see there's more to life than drinking n being daft.. Cheers buddy 😁
Well done brother for changing and you should have said hello, keep going and stay true to you ❤️
Straight talking from someone who's lived it and is now living life love it 💗
Man it’s mad how much I can relate to the stuff James is saying as I’ve been down a similar path myself .Top man with a great mindset!
Some real truths here. Great speaking. Lot more to this guy than the teeth and tan. The power of now!!!
James talks a lot of sense and I like his openness.
I haven't had a drink for over 4 years now, after 27 years of Binge Drinking. I sought help through hypnotherapy and it worked.
Living a life drink, drug and smoke free feels good, but it is obviously tough for so many to get to that stage.
Thanks James for all your video's. I'm learning so much from you and your guests.
@@davym23 Thank you.
Glad I watched this and heard James story so much which I resonate with....stumbled across his podcasts over lockdown but now I know more about him they are even better to watch than before!
James is a inspiration to all of us and shows how you can turn your life around! What I love most about this man is he don’t judge anyone
Thanks Gary
Anything Goes With James English your welcome bro keep being positive and putting that msg across I’m a massive fan❤️
Amazing interview. It was like it was me sat there for parts of it. I’m nearly 47 and still drink heavily to fill loneliness and voids. I’ve lost family, friends, girlfriends and my young daughter. I took every disco biscuit going and most powder too.
I’m at that point now where if I don’t concentrate on the light inside me, because I do have skills, then I’m just a day closer to death and another day away from letting the universe in.
I’ve lied and cheated so many people, I haven’t a clue how to love and trust myself now. It’s scary.
Thanks again James
Stay strong brother and keep going
Go for it,Pal!
Its never to late..don't lose hope.
Takes a big man to bare their soul for all the world to see ,nothing but respect for you ma man
Edison when asked, "How does it feel to have failed 999 times?" replied. "I didn't fail. I found 999 ways that didn't work."
He had 999 problems but a bitch ain't one.
Love that saying
@@ADSuri haha. "If you're having electrical problems I feel bad for you son"
Brilliant interview , James spoke with so much honesty and truth ,the longest iv stayed off the drink continuously is 11 days since 1982 , iv recently admitted to myself that iv got a problem , partly because of your videos and interviews that iv recognised myself in so much is the reason im being honest with myself and starting to turn my life around , its gonna be a long road but i know where i want to be and i will get there , keep the videos coming James , Thank You :)
Massive respect to you James, you are very inspirational and such a brilliant interviewer Elliot is aswell.
Cheers brother
So glad you have turned your life around its not easy fighting addictions, and homelessness we all have our demons it's not easy keep doing your podcasts ♥️👍♥️
Quality. There's a lot more to James than meets the eye. A great outlook and attitude on life.
Ian He-kensken cheers Ian 👍🏼
James your words are uplifting and the way you speak so normal and earthy your honesty shines out and your plans deserve massive success also you humility and humour make your podcasts a must see regards kev
Thanks Kev ❤️
The Power of Now is what changed things for me too.....no sure it was wee Eckharts voice that was your problem James, it took me about a year to read the book and it sent me to sleep at least once every page or two and I'd have to go back a page and re read it.
Enjoyed watching your interview.
Inspirational, hopefully others who are in a hole can see this and can see that you can turn your life around. Such an old head on young shoulders. I think we've all done crazy shit and it's who makes us who we are, it's all part of the journey!
Spot on James!!! this has properly hit home and is so true of so so many young men out there and with the rate of suicide and biggest cause of death under 45's this is very relatable! There is a void in so many people we try and cover up and drown and it doesnt go away by chance! Brilliant work thanks alot keep up the good work alot of people need to hear this!
id say ive been thru hell,,,, abused,, sexually,,,,,,dad died,,,,ma 6mths old son died,,,,got knocked down with a motor bike,,,year in hospital,,, head injuries ok leading to deep depression,,,, suicidal thoughts,,,, maybe my thinking was lucky,,,, because i never turned to drugs,,,, alcohol,,,,,,got my head down and got on with my life,,, happily married,,with 3 grown up kids,,,,8 grand kids,,, loving life,,,,,,no matter how down my depression gets me at times,,i look at what ive got,,, and smile,,,that im part of this life yet,,,,,,and in between all that i did 9yrs in the army,,,one of the lucky ones in life maybe i think,,iam,,,,,so massive resect to you james hearing your story m8
watched this after Corona outbreak, the shift you talked about is happening, we are helping each other, loving nature, embracing relationships, nurturing our families, ............. wow James, just wow x❤
Thank you for your story. I've consumed cannabis for over 25yrs and today is my first day without. I'm hoping I can use your story as inspiration🙏
James I'm a 61 year old man from London I have never thought about life as your one day away from the end of this world . Don't stop talking people are listening to you .
Thanks John
Got to know James over the last year . Just had a beautiful weekend in Glasgow , beautiful hotel and wkend all laid on by James,and invited me to he's home, very very rare for me to say, never mind think this , but hand on heart I'm proud so much to call this man a true friend , and admire him as much . A true quality genuine honest man .and best of all, he wants , and does help and care for others .what a man, only a fool would not see this man is so real. Genuine, top man x
Thanks for sharing your story and showing people that you can change. I've been trying to change my life for a while now and I'm getting there but sometimes I have set backs. I'll get there and have taken some good advice and points from this interview.
Thanks James im 36 years in recovery sober best thing I ever done.
Thank you James i struggle with addiction and got loads of identification from one day at a time bro HAPPY NEW YEAR N ALL THE BEST

Well done on another great podcast James.
Just remember there isn't a chemical solution to a spiritual problem xx
Love your story James, can relate in so many ways. From your awakening to views on fake world social media. We all on our own our own path and if it makes you happy & progress your person then go for it..kinda the advice I needed to hear this morning. Thankyou x
Really enjoyed the podcast!! Your a legend James!! Much love!! Love your podcasts!! 💯❤️👌
❤️
Great interview. Inspirational. James should be proud of himself for getting to where he is today.
James. I just walked through the doors of GA and feel better for doing so. This illness has destroyed my personality and my relationship with my now ex partner. I am determind to be clean and thankful for podcasts like this.
James, believe me I'm 51years old, got off heroin 25 years ago, relapsed back on it 5years now, lost my mum 2years ago, I get up in the morning with all intentions of not using but it's like I'm programmed to do it, & I'm struggling, think underneath all the drugs is depression, without using it feels like walking about with no limbs, using is so natural ,once I've done it I'm complete, a negative feels like my positive, but its should be the other way round, addiction I'm sick of it....thanks for your podcast
I’m right there with ya. It’s like I want to be clean but I end up falling into the old pattern of using. I have a few days in and I’m hoping to do it this time. Take care
@@sirbaronvoncount4147 good luck my friend.. say the serenity prayer every morning! Read just for today!
I honestly just came here to listen to your accent, but this interview is so much more than that. Thank you for being so honest; this means a lot to me.
Mate you are a legend....... I havnt seen someone who speaks so genuine and your on the same page as me..... good to see and I am buzzin...... keep up the work mate.........quality tha👌

Nice one James mate👍 I’m going through a lot that you are!! I’d like to get I touch in the new year and discuss mental health. I suffered a mild Brain injury and it would be good to use you as a platform to tell people the truth!!👌👌 Be safe mate and keep up the positivity 😉😉👍👍
Who disliked this ?
Wow can’t believe some people why dislike the truth?
Anyway well done James I’ve watched at least 6 of your podcasts and now was interested on how you started this so watching this has showed me why . Your a good man for letting people understand you and what your doing ie the homeless documentary top job .
mash thank you for the support 👍🏼
Accidental probably.
That was really good james. Don’t be too hard on yourself eating crisps. You hit the nail on the head. Living in the moment. Mastering living in the moment is the key for us all to be happy but we have built in forgetters. We forget how to be happy. We’ve been conditioned to think that we’re defined by status and material possessions. Peace and contentment is what I’m after 🙏🏻. I can go to bed at night feeling happy, motivated but as soon as I wake up I’ve forgotten. Need to write things down or it all gone til I go to bed the following night 🤔 I sent my son this vid. He’s 24. He messaged me saying how much he resonated with you 👍🏻xx
Thanks Norma xxx
A wise man told me that it is the “love of money that’s the root of all evil”.
Watching this with the hope I can curb my own drug and gambling addiction starting tomorrow. I will watch it every day if I have to
Go for it brother ❤️
James been watching a lot of you recently, you've changed my lifestyle and my out look on life. Smoking my last bit of puff while I watch this then it's time too turn my life around, you have motivated me to do this although I should have done this years ago but the time is right mate, great journey you have taken since your dark days keep going mate
Brilliant video interview James watched a lot of your interviews lately so wondering where you were coming from and who you are watching this has opened my eyes to who you are bud your a good guy James not afraid to admit your pass faults etc again great video bud
Thanks craigie 👍🏼
Nice to watch you on the other side of the mic, good on you to be so open and honest.
Ross Hill thanks ross
Inspiring man. I lost my best mate to suicide 3 years ago and my life spiralled out of control since. I spent the past 3 years snorting coke almost every day to block out the pain but it doesnt work, the moment u havent got the coke all the pain just hits at once. I was homeless from december 2019 up until june. Ive finally started to change my life around for the better and ive been clean now since the 16th of june. Im starting my new job on monday and i now have secure housing. Things are finally starting to look up for me. All the best brother anyway. Just thought id share my story
Well done :)
JAMES THATS ABSOLUTELY QUALITY MATE..ive turned my life around from criminal activities and into reiki and the occult and bio energy healing. like yaself i find it so hard to read any books now so i tend to listen to stuff.
Amazing listening to youJames, you have lived & lloved life and now helping others 👍 thanks for sharing
Thanks Danny
James English podcast always my favourite. ❤️
❤️❤️
I am a recovering gambling addict. Four months off a bet. I attend GA meetings and I have been in some very bad places as a result of my addiction. But I take my recovery a day at a time. And James is right when he speaks of change. But it is a lifelong process.
Fully agree with everything said so relatable to so many people cant believe he hasn't heard the sayin "two ears one mouth use the to that proportion"
Similar life growing up from Belfast, brothers from across the road, packed the football in at 18 partied for years weekend after weekend from 16-21 , knocked the harder drugs at 21 still take a drink and a smoke of weed, and I'm not working atm currently making a living from gambling, been gambling in the bookies from 12 year old now 30 living in Mexico getting a turn from football and the horses. Only 5% of people can make a success of gambling,, research/control/master 1/2 sports/don't bet things that are pure chance (roulette etc)! Respect your money don't worry about the prices as long as they're winners. Great story mate, keep up the good work man.
Top man this James - He learned how to grow. Not many people do. A word of support here james - being lazy is sometimes an indication of good nature . Good stuff starts slowly .
In the remembrance of the Almighty do hearts find peace. James you are an inspiration, your story is fascinating and your down to earth, positive attitudes in telling your story you will have helped and inspired many to take the steps to change.Your accents just fine, just be your beautiful self. 🙂🙏
fantastic interview james, congratulations on being where you are now from where you came from, you sir are an inspiration. all the very best for 2019 to you and your`s. best wishes
davie-m cheers Davie mate. I hope 2019 is a belter for you
James, what your saying here really resonates with me. I get it. I don't live in Glasgow but have been bought up with a Glaswegian parent and family and known many 'Jocks' growing up. The toughness and criticism is inherent as well as being great people, good fun there is IMPE the reckless behaviour to mask unhappiness. I reckon if I'd met you years ago, I'd have judged you and said you had a big arrogant ego. I wasn't at my most happiness for years either but now I'd be able to talk to you for hours and it would be enlightening for both of us. Loving what your doing ❤️
Straitforward,, concise,, fearlessly honnest,, words of truth, & for the good,,keep it up,, excellent work james english,,
“Am gonna get pumped in here”😂😂😂😂 sorry lad but that had me pissing myself hahaha, glad you’ve changed your life around mate proper inspiration!

James you make sense and after listening to what you have said I know it's true I've spent years drinking and taking drugs and the times I was clean were the best and most happy of all.
I know I have to change and I will be trying hard from now on.
Go for it brother
I just watched your documentary about homeless people at xmas and after going through the tough times of having no where to stay I commend you for doing what you do your a total inspiration. ✌
You talk so much sense James you are a treffic guy had you been in my life l would not have wasted 20 years with depression you would of changed my mindset know l think like you you are Lucky you found it out sooner you are a great guy x

Absolutely fantastic interview this. You are an inspiration to everyone who watches this video. Well done James.
Jack Alexander thank you
Hi James. Nice broadcast. My life sounds very similar to yours. I was Arsenal youth player of the year at ten years old I had a professional contract at 17 by 19 I was in a homeless hostel shit-hole which in turn grew into being on remand for attempted murder in the same yr I was a father and married at 22 divorced and homeless again by 24. Cut a long story short Im now 42 next week with a ten yr co-dependent heroin addiction behind me were losing our hard earned hard paid for house which only has 3 yrs left on the mortgage. Yr broadcast has given me the incentive to change my shit. Myself and my girlfriend have an appointment on Monday at the local rehab and I'm also a musician so I intend to put all my energies into a new UA-cam channel and hopefully onward and upward. Thank you for your words and ill keep in touch and tell you all how it goes.
19:03 - 20:30 The best part of this, right on James!

Excellent interview James. Hats off to you for your life transformation. Best interview by far.
I can't believe I've only just found this one.
This man speaks so much sense. Love the bit about people acting aggressive because they are scared of getting twatted themselves. So true!
