      It won't last long. His soberness is only temporary.
      He won't be able to live a drug free or alcohol life for long.
      We'll be hearing more from Steve-O in the very near future for sure.

    My son took a trip to LA a few years back (from a small town in Canada) and sent a tweet to Steve-o.
    This guy actually reached out and met with my son, walking around LA.and just talking.
    A total class act. Glad you got it together man, that's fantastic.

    I could remember few years back after my wife died, I was left alone with 3 kids. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Was actually addicted to alcohol. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment changed my life for better. I can proudly say i'm totally clean for 6 years and still counting. Always look to nature for solution to tough problems, Shrooms are phenomenal.

    I’ve been alcohol and drug free since 05’. Weed, shrooms and a bit of acid led me to bipolar disorder. My friends continued on to doing coke. You see that your family are the only ones that care when you are institutionalized in a psych ward. Go to the gym 3-4 times a week and love my wife and kids. Dark days are behind me for now. My strength will be tested when I lose my parents. I hope I can be strong for my wife and kids.

    I remember when Jackass first appeared on TV, I was finishing school. Being barely 12 back then, I just couldn´t believe the stuff those guys were willing to do just for the sake of entertainment, and Steve O was by far the one who did some of the gnarliest shit my eyes have witnessed to this day. So, having that in mind, It´s reasonable to say he was the one anyone could say would end up getting fucked up to death. But now he got his shit together, and that´s truly remarkable. If he managed to reach sobriety, anybody can. Also, huge kudos to Knoxville for having the initiative to get Steve O´s ass inside that psychiatric ward. Speaks lots of him.

      You're just beginning your life experience with drugs!
      The only reason why you think it's a bad experience is because the people surrounding you tell you that.
      Get rid of them, and you'll be free to do what you want.

    When Brandon Novak got sober and stayed sober I had that feeling of "Well done my man." because his addictions were much darker than Steve-O's.
    I would love to have a double interview with Novak and Steve-O where they openly talk beating the demons of addiction. Because they have so much in common.

    Oxycodone brought me to my knees. I had been a Catholic priest for 16 years at the time when I was first prescribed it after falling through a roof while trying to help rebuild after Hurricane Katrina. My doctor was a parishioner of mine. I have since gotten clean but I am no longer a priest. I do go to a local hospital's drug rehab once a week as part of NA, have a meeting and talk to the people there. If you pray, please pray for me and know that I do for you, as well. (On what could be called a side note: I met and am in a very cool "serious" relationship with a Doctor of Osteopathy, which is an M.D. but with more study involved. Anyway, as one who went through the living Hell that I went through, it's an interesting place to end up.)

      @johnnybravo5962 5 років тому +1

      To me it’s about the level of self control a person has. If you can take two hits of pot (bowl or bong and no FAT RIPS) or drink 2 beers and then call it quits for the rest of the night you don’t need to be sober.
      If you however have to smoke pot until you sleep and when you wake up, or need to drink 8 beers at night you NEED to be sober.
      This is why many people have normal lives while also doing some drugs, while some are better off never touching the stuff. It’s all individual. I drink once every few weeks socially but can’t imagine being loaded every night, I’d have trouble keeping my life together.
      Weed is much less damaging as alcohol tho.... I wish alcohol didn’t exist.
