Ryan, someone needs to help this guy with psychedelics. He should also be taking vitamin D3 and magnesium. Poor neurotic bastard.
I wish more men would talk about anxiety and depression like these two
The rat king does a pretty good job talking about his battle with depression too.

It’s unfortunate we men are to stubborn and proud to admit anything wrong. It took me 10 years. But, I agree with you.

Theo and sickler out here doing the lords work
Jesus christ. The story about Pauls mom was just bringing back so many memories when I lost my mom to cancer. The whole way the story was going bleak just waiting for the bad part. Then he hits you with the 'she's still alive' and I got chills. May or may not have shouted out a 'Fuck YEah!'
i’m currently crying over it… chin up brother !!
I was tearing up as he was telling the story it was great how he waited to reveal she survived.
Most of the more severe illnesses happen to people by surprise, unexpectantly, impacting first in the brain, then in the corresponding organ which that part of the brain controls. The end of WWI had absolutely everything to do with the Flu and lung TB outbreak that occurred killing millions. In nature, the biological conflict linked with a territorial fear (just what it means-a fear in your territory, your home, your community, etc.) is a widening of the bronchia (tissue loss). Your body attempts to widen your bronchia in order to allow more air into your lungs to give you more strength and energy to fight to keep your territory safe. Stay with me.......The biological conflict linked with a death fright impacts the lungs. The lungs attempt to grow larger in order to allow more air in because breath equals life, as we all know. No breath equals death.
While you are in the fear or death fright conflict, you notice no symptoms of “disease”, except you have cold hands, cold feet, you can’t sleep, you awaken at 3 AM every night, you have little appetite. During the WW1, millions of people were in fear of the bombing of their homes and cities where the war was most active. Fearing for their lives, their loved ones in the war, their ability to survive. The food in the stores was sparse due to shortages. This lasted for 4 long years! The longer the conflict, the worse the healing phase. Within 2 weeks of the German Chancellor announcing the end of WWI, these millions of people ALL went into the healing phase all at the same time. It is during the healing phase that you experience symptoms of illness! What is the healing phase of the bronchia widening? Severe bronchitis, pneumonia. The body attempts to refill this lost tissue and you experience inflammation, fever, coughing, body aches, fatigue, etc. What is the healing phase of the extra lung tissue that grew? Decomposing of the tissue by TB bacteria and fungi. The symptoms of this healing phase are: severe coughing up of blood and tissue, fever, inflammation, severe mucous, body aches, fatigue. During this decomposing of the extra tissue (tumor), the body expels a lot of protein, and without replenishment, severe protein loss can result in death. Antibiotics did not exist yet. If TB bacteria does not exist in a person or they have been vaccinated against TB (big mistake), then the tumor will simply encapsulate and become dormant and not harm you. Who died during the Spanish Flu? Mainly the poor who could not afford to buy meat and proper nourishment, and the people who were directly impacted by the bombings and destruction of their homes.
Millions of people suffered fear and death frights during the fighting of WWI, and millions of people all went into healing at the end of it. Not everyone was affected because not everyone suffered the same way.
It’s not a “flu”, it’s not something you “catch”. It’s biological, meaningful, and unavoidable. One hundred years later, a Fear Campaign begins, using the media to spread it......
Sorry for your loss
sorry for your loss love. and just so you know about the time you shouted fuck yea i was fist pumping the air
I wish I could explain to you how much this podcast hits home for me. Muscle twitching, numbness, head tightness, “brain tumor” MRI, MS, self-diagnoses, assuming doctors are wrong, thinking “this is my last event”, I’ve battled all that shit. There’s something so comforting in the camaraderie of mutual experiences. Excited to look into all your comedy!! #highlightingthelowlights
This hit home so hard. It's overwhelming to even be audible when I'm depressed. If there is any extra stressor, my body just shuts down in that period. No one around me could understand why it was happening.
Oh my godddd I love you Sickler 😂😂😂 “How you gon say that when I got two different calves??!”💀😭😭 40:36
“Let me see your calves”
I never realized how bad my anxiety was until Paul was detailing what he was thinking inside the CAT scan. That is how fast I downward spiral myself into a depression. Thanks for letting me know I need to get this shit under control.
Good luck man.
Controlling my depression is one of the hardest things in the world to do man. Hang in there.
When he said the doc said unfortunately the problem is here and pointed to his head. That hit hard man.
My dog died in January and this episode made me cry. Especially the part about the Marshmallow song. Job well done Sickler. This was a great episode!
Sorry to hear, sincerely. Dogs are literally the best.
Man, same. My dog died on my birthday in December 2019. I am still really struggling. This one really got me. I’m sorry about your pup. Hang in there.
Me too! Just went through a similar experience.(( Hugs ))
@@stephaniebenton9070 Did you get another dog yet? My 6yr old Shichi died of cancer & I couldn't even feel butterflies in my stomach anymore, no matter what I was excited for, it was like I was dead inside.
A new puppy came to me 5 months later, & the hole filled back up pretty quickly. Especially when the puppy started sleeping in bed with me, it was so much better. By the time I taught the puppy all her tricks, I was emotionally invested in things again.
Get a puppy, it'll make you feel like you again in no time. It's not a betrayal to feel happy without your doggo.
My cat died two weeks ago. Here I was crying in my car at a Dairy Queen drive-thru.
Sickle Cell…. I have been listening to you for a long time. I have listened to every episode of this podcast. This one got me. I felt so connected to this guest. The anxiety, the alcohol, the terror of just being alive? Yep. Now I’m sober over a year. It’s gets better if you really want it. Thanks for this show man. ❤️
Congratulations on your year. I'm like 25 days, and so many things are better. I'm looking forward to a year!
As someone that had to put a cat asleep in December and am dealing with health issues with his brother, the cat story has me in tears at work.
Paul’s story of his mother’s cancer journey has me in tears right now. Too many people I know taken from that evil disease 😭😭❤️❤️
Theres gotta be a university somewhere that could give Ryan an honorary psychiatry doctorate. The Honeydew with Dr Sickler, y’all
I love this podcast so much. I'm a cancer survivor, amongst other things, and so many times have I been in the position that Paul was in. Perfectly healthy but still putting my feet in the grave. Going through big medical issues, having people around me who have and have lost their battles, my brain always jumps to the worst conclusions at the smallest blip. But it's nothing but anxiety, my goddamned brain running away with my well-being. Thank you Ryan for your amazing podcast, and thank you Paul for sharing your story. Also, the thanks is extended to Ryan every time he talks about his Factor 5 diagnosis experience.
Man, I really believe that Ryan is one of the greatest interviewers of our time. He has a way of making his guests feel comfortable enough to share unbelievable and impactful stories they might never have publicly shared.
Thank you for this Ryan. I’m suffering really bad right now with OCD and Anxiety and I’ve been slowly getting over it. Your podcasts are truely some of the most open and beautiful discussions about such dark topics. I think I speak for a lot of young men and women when I say that this podcast has changed my life for the better. Thank you for being so open with emotions and anxiety. You’re helping a lot of people, especially men, take control of their emotions and deal with their issues. It really means a lot.
I'm a grown man with a beard in a truck pulled off on the side of the road ballin my eyes out because of this god damn cat story
Same here. Trying not to look like i got broken up with before i go into work. Damn you virzi!! Making me not want to leave my cat alone ever again😂
Paul’s mic screws are the tightest mic screws in the history of mic screws.
God damn everything that virzi is saying about his depression experiences resonates so much
These are two guys I can imagine have very few haters in the podcasting world
Everyone got haters, it’s a good thing. Probably hate how positive they are/how unhappy they themselves are.
It’s impossible to not like sickler.
Its so easy to hate virzi lmao he is a typical loud east coast douche
@@blaketankersley2449
Maybe with me being from Ireland I love that. Don’t see it every day. Feel like I’d get along with him
@@blaketankersley2449 zip it , c
Amazing story about Paul’s mother. Very emotional and I pray for future scientific research to help others affected by illnesses
Yeah that was a great, unexpected turn for the better. Refreshing
Paul and Ryan...you both just changed my life. Thank you.
I can't tell you how much this podcast means to me and how much it's gotten me through. Thanks, Sickle Cell
I love this podcast and the niche it has carved out for celebrities to tell about their toughest times.... it helps us all
Creating "podcast curriculum" is amazing... keep that moving Ryan!!! Virzi is always a great guest on any podcast. Mich love to you both sirs!!!!
I wish more men could see that 2 men talking about mental health and how it impacts them is sexy. Openness with humor and connection is what keeps me going.
Man, first episode to make me cry. I had to put my cat down this year, it all happened so quick, within a span of a week. He was also great at fucking up rodents and ended up bringing a pigeon home, he wrecked the thing. A few days later turns out a bone had probably ruptured his stomach and became septic. I did stay there with him while they put him down and it was so rough, thought I had reconciled until Paul here brought it up.
I also had a fucked up vet story because for some reason they didn't note down what I wanted to do with his ashes, and so a month later they called me saying he was still in deep freeze waiting for my decision, and that was more devastating than anything, assholes.
RIP Badger, my absolute best boy.
Sorry for the loss of your cat - I had to put mine down in March due to feline leukemia within two weeks of him being diagnosed. It was heartbreaking.
Also sorry to hear your vet waited a month! To ask you about what to do with his remains, how terrible!! Usually they ask all the details when signing the paperwork, I can't believe they would do that 😡
Paul's anxiety is literally the SAME as mine, this is fucking crazy. I have a pinched nerve that causes spasms also, and I was always thinking that something was wrong with me. Paul's anxiety & depression is the same things I've dealt with. This is insane to hear someone else experience this.
It is good hearing you guys express your feelings it will help a lot of people to hear this. My brother passed away a couple years ago and he had a favourite song that I hadn't heard in probably more than 5 years before that but when I got the news of him passing that song came on the radio. I think its a sign of them letting you know they are better now.
Man, this episode hit hard. Never knew all this stuff about Virzi. Him talking about his mom and cat fucked me up. Great guest
Lord man. I can super relate to what he was going through. After my dad died every single pain I had in my chest I would send myself into a panic attack thinking I was about to have a heart attack. Went through it for months.
The next time Pixar needs to cast a voice for a Jack Russell they have to hire Paul Virzi!
I feel the same way Paul does about my lipoma. I swore I had breast cancer and still do and have been to multiple specialists and had multiple MRI's to scan a benign lipoma in my chest. I also got a colonoscopy at 25 because I was convinced I had colon cancer because I used to drink soda. That style of thinking and anxiety is super destructive
It's good to know other people fight these similar battles. Nobody is alone!
19:53 that’s an amazing story! Very happy for Paul and his family
I went through the same shit. I had crippling anxiety after my daughter was born. Also had symptoms. 2 weeks ago we had to put down our cat we had for 17 years. I had him half of my life. He was with me when I got married, he met both my kids. It's hard. I needed this Sickle. Thank you for the podcasts.
This one hit deep fellas. I'm watching a few a friends go through loss at the moment, and I really feel for them.
Im so glad Bill brought Virzi out to his Toronto show a few years ago. Its been awesome to watch him blowing up. And I appreciate Paul talking so openly about his life.
This guys anxiety and depression story resonated with me so well. It damn near helped me wrap my mind around how you can manifest physical symptoms from anxiety and depression. I’ve felt like death before gone to the ER. And have been told that I’m totally fine. I’ve had my nerves checked for twitches. Every doctor was like “you’re okay.” And I just wouldn’t believe them. Google searching and all that lol But when people give their testimony like this, it just opens the mind to a new understanding and patience. Thank you for this podcast. It’s Helped me so much mentally.
It’s called psychosomatic illness.. your mind will make yourself feel physically ill.
Most families just replace the old pet with a new kitten or puppy before the old one even dies. I saw this happen so much in high school with friends' families. Paul did things the right way.
The goddamn cat story had me all sorts of teary eyed... all this dust keeps blowing in here, gettin' in my eyes and my cats are staring at me wondering what's wrong with me.
It's not always an episode makes me cry a few times, made me realize various things. Thanks for this!
I also had physical symptoms of anxiety throughout college - back and stomach pain. It starts to freak you out until you trust that it's just the anxiety, then work on whatever the source of anxiety is
I love that i listen to so many podcasts but this one helps me grow EVERY week as a person makes me think more about shit. Much love Ryan, Honeydew is definitely helping me lately in my own life ❤️
Man I had to put my 16 year old cat down this year, and that story about his cat brought back all the tears. They're not just pets, they're family. Fuck it hurts losing a pet.
All I could keep thinking about was Bill Burr yellin at Virzi….”Stop touchin the mike Paul”!! 😂😂
Algorithm! Here is content interaction for the UA-cam god. Go on Sickle Cell
Paul just nailed down exactly how i felt in 2008 2014 and currently now struggling with now. depression and anxiety is no fu$king joke! Things like this very podcast help tremendously! Thanks guys!
this episode actually helped me alot, Thanks Paul and Ryan
Your the man Ryan Sickler! Wishing you continued success bro!
This has easily become my favorite podcast! Keep it up!!
I'm really happy she pulled through mothers are soo special.
Never related to any individual on this show more than paul. I really needed this thank you, its nice knowing it can get better
when ryan said, "you're good" I literally felt a weight lift off my own shoulders lmfao! oh man so many men need this release!!!
Single father to a little one. I appreciate your podcast and what you do tremendously. Thank you much!
Thank you for this episode. It’s great that they discussed this topic. Clinical depression sucks. You can get through it just ask for help.
I was in a pretty brutal earthquake(6.5) and for months after felt tremors, and internally felt like I was shaking constantly. I convinced myself I had MS and finally went to specialist and she told me I had trauma from the earthquake and anxiety. days later the tremors subsided. they come back now sometimes when I get anxious but I now know they aren't a symptom of me dying. it's crazy how humans can talk themselves into being sick
Didnt plan on crying about my dead cat this afternoon but here we are! lol love you so much Ryan!
"The devil invaded this family, in the form of your mother" 😂😂😂😂💀💀💀
Time stamp please lol
@@bradgilligan2429 10:11
Paul "Calf and a half" Virzi. 😂🤣😂🤣 for real tho, I love that you're able to talk about this!
Well told Paul. Anxiety is a tricky bitch. I've been through a lot of similar experiences, finally started believing (knowing) there's nothing wrong with me. It was comforting to hear your story, thanks for sharing!
Surreal to see one of my favorite podcasts host Paul .. as real as they come
It’s 4am Ryan Sickler and this is getting me thru some shi*🙏
If you don't like either of these two guys you have something wrong with you.
I like them. However, Paul Virsi reminds me of that guy we all party with, that has to one up everything you say..
"Dude, that's nothing. MY baseball scores hold the school record, I broke em all dude!" Then they wait for someone to go "wow" & proceed to bulldoze every conversation for the rest of the night.
Ryan would have been a great therapist in another life
When sickler says it’s called trauma I died laughing that was perfect
Watched Paul’s newest episode yesterday now I’m here for the OG
Sickler and his Honeydew = my Zoloft prescription
I saw Virzi open for Bill Burr in 2014. Put on a great show. Great to see how far he's come since then.
Yes! Was that at the Wilbur theater in Boston??
This episode helped me more that you guys will ever know. Thank you
Paul looks like a fit Lee Syatt
:)
Yeah! Lee Syatt lifting weights
The laugh sounds pretty close too
This guys is what Lee Syatt is supposed to be, before he was over cooked.
Dude that is hilarious 😂
Got left in the joey diaz oven of edibles at 420 degrees for the last 8 years
@@barter1070 I think God might have left him the oven a little too long before he was born.
Shout-out lee he just lost over 100lb
Holy fuck. “The devil came and visited us in the form of your mother” 😂💀
Woooo! Wake up with Sickler!!! Better than breakfast in bed.
Brain tumor!! We ruled that out!!! 🤣🤣🤣😂
IS THERE ANYTHING BETTER THAN PAULIE V ON THA DEW?! ALWAYS remember-grown men don't drive Toyotas...hahaha
Thank you God for podcast and people sharing their stories. It sounds like me years ago when I had a bad bout of mental health issues. It's good to power through hard times and not take yourself out. You never get to experience it getting better just like paul said
Came here for a laugh - got that - but ended up leaving with tears in my eye, and inspiration in my soul ahoo-hoo *sad Burr noises*
I was waiting for that story about his mom to get real sad real quick ha, thank goodness she is okay, he led us on that whole time haha!
Love Paul Virzi 🇺🇸🇬🇷🇮🇹
I really needed this one! Paul Virzi I'm becoming a fan more and more every day. The both of you two guys if you ever come out to indiana I'll be buying tickets and making time to see your shows!
Thank you again for more content that makes me genuinely think about life
I totally called it dude! Dude, I called it!
Sickler and Paul mad props both of you rock!
I was bawling through this whole episode. I had to stop it TWICE. Fuck, man...
Got something in my throat....
.....it's called trauma 😂☠
Hey Ryan, the podcast is getting better and better each week man, this guy Paul just getting to know him but he's great thanks bro keep moving forward 👍🏽👍🏽👌🏽
"The devil invaded us in the form of your mother!"😂🤣😂
Time stamp please lol
I'm not used to listening to Virzi without Bill Burr constantly interrupting him.
"Dude, I called it'
That sum of sam episode...Virzi looked like a defeated man 🤣 trying to get his point across it was great
For a second there I thought Sickle Cell’s guest was Hard Rock Nick after therapy.
virizi feels like he should be bigger than he is....Such a Jersey wise guy
Thank you Sickler. Always amazing work.
Speaking on the reach of podcasts..... I heard of Paul way before I ever saw or listened to him because of bill burr talking about him on his podcast. when I saw their podcast I was excited to learn more about him. and now im a fan
He said he's performing at the Fairfield community theater!! I did the renovations there with the company I work for
Two of my favorites, Virzi is fucking hilarious!
This was very comforting to listen to. I can relate so much to all this shit
What an episode!
cows and other animals that we eat have just as much empathy as the cats we love as pets, don't forget that folks!
Happy Toosdie Y'all
Even though it's tough putting to sleep any animal, if you can, be in the room with them when they pass. Yes it's hard, but they've been there unconditionally for you. I've heard from my sister who works at a vet clinic, the worst thing is when the owner just leaves, and the poor animal freaks out because they don't know who the staff is or what's going on. Also, their eyes never close when they're being put to sleep and pass, it's not like the movies when someone dies and their eyes close, that never happens.
That damn Marshmello song got me crying about my cat I just lost in March from leukemia, he was only 7 and it still sucks he had to go. Miss him every day.
