      The thing is how can this give her a boost of confidence tho when she is providing this man a lifestyle he could never afford on his own?!? There has to be at least a small part of her that has the intelligence to understand he may have ulterior motives because of the lifestyle she is providing which is attached to this engagement / marriage! If she had absolutely nothing to offer him financially, then yes that would be a boost to her ego to say that this man wants her in spite of the fact that she were struggling financially, but when there is a $$ lifestyle attached to it you just can't flatter yourself & assume there's nothing more to it than love! If that were me & I had money I would not want the guy to live in my home or have access to my $$ lifestyle because that can create a lot of ulterior motives that attract a man to commit! If I were you I would not be at all flattered. I would question the motivation behind a man who wants to get all legally enmeshed with my money. One has to be intelligent enough that this should cross your mind.

      You should never commit to someone who has an addiction or reliance on a substance of any kind.. whether it be drugs or alcohol. Unless of course you're able to profit financially & live a higher lifestyle..then you might say maybe this would be worth it for me to try to marry her & see if I can profit.. live the high life, get alimony &/ or child support in the future. Go Jordan!

      @@michellevaughan9131 you are not alone! I’ve been addicted to heroin for almost 5 years now. I have been to rehab several times and has short periods of sobriety. I even did methadone and suboxone, all of which only helped temporarily. I feel like the 12 step systems don’t work for everyone. I don’t know what state you are in but I’d encourage you to seek out alternatives rehabilitation centers. Here in my state of Minnesota I found one that is “harm reduction” based. Meaning they aren’t punishing you for having positive UAs and they understand relapse is a part of addiction and don’t kick you out for use unless it’s endangering other patients in the program. Anyway feel free to hit me up if you wanna talk or if you need any sort of help finding resources as I’m a wizard when it comes to that stuff. And I won’t ever judge you or anyone! I’m in the same spot as you girl! Supportive peers can make a difference!

    I struggle with severe anxiety and overstimulation. I can complete relate to your restaurant scenario. Especially since I passed out and we had to call 911 to rush me to the hospital from a restaurant. Needless to say, restaurants can make me nervous and be triggering. The reason I wanted to comment was how you both made the concrete decision to get up and leave and how it wasn’t even a blip in your mind that it was the right thing to do. And to the way and excitement you guys said you were going to get “tea”. Especially Jordan. Not even phased by needing to leave the restaurant in a hurry. That’s a man. That’s a partner. That’s your person for life.

    I had a “healthy” relationship with alcohol for years. And then this pandemic hit and my anxiety reached an unhealthy level and I started using alcohol to self medicate. I don’t consider myself an addict but I know I was on a slippery slope and going down fast. Someone in my group said it best “when I started drinking alcohol it was fun, then it was fun with problems. Then it just turned into problems”. For so long I questioned my “healthy” relationship with alcohol. I’ve come to learn that for some of us there’s no such thing as a healthy relationship with alcohol. Abstaining from it and lots of therapy has made a world of difference.

    It’s amazing that you went from saying “I don’t have a problem” at the beginning of the video to admitting you do. I love that you were able to verbalize that, that’s a HUGE step in itself. As somebody who has had bad anxiety and self medicated with weed, and as somebody who has worked with addicts for 10 years, the serenity prayer as silly as it sounds helps me when those urges come creeping back. God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference. Saying this during high stress times has helped immensely. Good luck on the rest of your journey!!

      As a recovering alcoholic myself with a year and 42 days sober today, I will have to agree with you. This is definitely sounding like pretty textbook alcoholism. I'm not trying to be mean or put her down in any way because that's the last thing you need when you're struggling but I'm just calling it like I see it and this is what alcoholism looks like. When you're drinking to cope with anxiety and depression that is an issue for sure (that was what I was doing for most of my life honestly) and I justified it for so long! Now I have permanent health issues (mostly liver, kidney, blood and spleen issues) now because of my alcoholism and addiction issues (I'll be 39 this September) and it wasn't until I put the drugs and the bottle down did I realize exactly what the hell I was doing to myself. I was stuck in a toxic cycle and it does feel good to be free of it! I hope the same for Jaclyn but she needs to get real with herself and realize that she does really have a problem if she is drinking the way she's describing. She's got plenty of money to go to a nice treatment center and it could be good for her mind, body and spirit! Also having Jordan as a support will help her! I have a very supportive boyfriend I've been with for 12 years and he doesn't drink at all and understands my struggles and is very supportive of me! So she's got some support which is important!

      @@hwoods-kg1jf For both of you, I have a question/something to add… don’t you feel like she has a food addiction too?? And trying to just insert eating unhealthy again and making excuses to why it’s fine for her to do as as way to cope with not having a drink is just trading one crutch/addiction/problem for another one… right? And I feel like Jordan says all the nice words to support her, but it’s doesn’t really show up in his actions. She has all these “yes men” around her that just hype her up and confirm what’s she’s saying and doing all of the time, and it just adds to her bias when she looks at herself, her situation and her actions. No one is strong enough to hold up a real mirror in front of her, in my opinion.
      Also, Jordan gives the vibe that he doesn’t care and is actually happy when she is eating like crap again bc that’s how he likes to eat and he doesn’t know what’s else to do together when she’s “dieting.” Going to all these restaurants and ordering multiple plates of food, ice cream every day, and his cooking channel where he cooks nothing but unhealthy, cheesy, greasy junk every episode and he is constantly wanting her to taste and try everything he makes is like constantly dangling a shot of heroin in front of an addict. I truly think she has a food addiction as well and if you even ask someone like that to taste something, you are triggering that addiction bc she simply can’t moderate like an average person. And she’s too busy making excuses for herself to see that. I’m not saying he doesn’t support her or love her, but she’s never going to get better if someone doesn’t really tell her what she’s doing.
      Everyone in her life, her fans, etc are always praising her every move and thought, and she doesn’t have healthy or realistic ideas when it comes to these things, in my opinion.
      It’s just a constant cycle with her of excuses. There’s always a reason why she’s falling off or doing something or regressing. I don’t think I’ve ever heard her truly own up to a harsh reality and it’s worrisome bc she’ll never get better that way. She’s constantly got the blinders on and everyone telling her that it’s okay and it’s not okay.

      Yall can go mind your own business and leave your "suggestions and input" at home. She has an amazing support system and she's in therapy and has reliable doctors and sources to help guide her through this. It's not your place to say anythong like that when she didn't ask for other people's advice. You should know better as a human, let alone as addicts yourselves... to not place your judgements and accusations on someone you don't know that DIDNT ask for your help.

      @@Sha_NaLeaaaa to be honest, she might just have addiction issues period. Food included. It is also common to go from one addiction to another. I was what they call a "poly substance abuser" meaning I used more than just one drug. I was an addict and an alcoholic for most of my life. For over 20 something years. I had my first drink at the age of 4 or 5 by the male baby sitter that molested me. He tried to give it to me to I think try and "make me forget" what he was doing to me but I remember most of it unfortunately. I think that and A TON of other traumatic things that happened to me in my life as well as having addiction/mental health issues in my genetics on BOTH sides of my family was what the root of my real issues were. Addiction is a symptom of a bigger problem basically. She's trying to mask some kind of pain/depression/anxiety like she said so yes, she very well could be doing the same with food. I feel for Jordan because there is a very thin line you tread with an addict/alcoholic and I agree he needs to quit being such a "yes man" and maybe talk her into getting some professional help. I mean she can afford the best medical professional help money can buy so I hope she gets it because she really needs it badly! This is exactly how I was before I got sober! I also struggled with my weight when I got sober and it's still a struggle for me so I can empathize with her on that.

    Prescription medication for anxiety is NOT a "vice". It's not the same as self-medicating and using alcohol. This is an extremely damaging viewpoint. It's PRESCRIBED by doctors for people who have tried other treatments and not getting relief.

    • @jessicajames6841
      @jessicajames6841 2 роки тому +4

      You are right, let’s not forget, however sometimes it is OVERprescribed
      That said, when one reaches for alcohol to FEEL better (diminish pain, anxiety, depression etc) it becomes habitual. Habitual behaviors easily turn into addiction. Very fine line. If you can’t go a week without alcohol I very much encourage a 12 step meeting. So many people are scared to go but if you try it…it is life transforming. These days you can even attend via zoom.

Its a toxic cycle because if you feel anxious you drink but at the same time its what may be triggering your symptoms. For me, it was sugar, if i had anxiety, I would eat like a brownie or homemade cookies for comfort, but tgat sugar could be the very thing that’s causing my anxiety. I cut back & it helped soo much.

    Try staying where you are when panic hits. I know it's awful, I'm also going through it. Hundreds of different physical symptoms, even when I'm not actively feeling mentally anxious. Staying in that moment will show your body that the alarm was false and it'll decrease over time. Congratulate yourself too. People don't realize that when anxiety is bad, sometimes we're just surviving, not living. I don't take anything for it either, but if its really that bad I'll take a beta blocker. It will get better, it always does.

    I’ve had to work through social anxiety and also realized that I have sensory issues - some due to past traumas and overriding my feelings bc I thought it was brave to push through. Then I also had a personal realization that it’s pretty okay and Normal to want a less stimulating life. Our society tells us (some of it good but need to be catered to ourselves personally) that we NEED so much social interaction. I disagree for myself. I enjoy my interactions with others when I am ready. And when I’m all done, I can gracefully remove myself and go back to quiet. And that there is nothing wrong with quiet and stillness. Be gentle with yourself my dear. I will pray for you to have peace acceptance that you are more than enough and MORE than fine being a homebody. 😊 it may sound silly, but think of the people that choose to live off the grid. There is a reason that some people like to lead a quieter existence.

I agree, I don’t think you need to lock yourself away to face it head on. But I do genuinely think you could benefit from AA meetings. A lot of people struggle with this.

    Quitting anything unhealthy is super hard honestly but anything is possible! 16-20 I was drinking a tonnn, I was in a toxic relationship with a drug dealer, drinking a 2'6 every party night between a friend and I, shots after shots on the weekends, within that time frame I started doing coke, shrooms, molly etc. I woke up one morning and just said enough is enough, deleted a bunch of people, left my ex a few months after realizing it wouldn't work if I was focusing on myself. At that point I didn't even think about drinking, I'm almost 30, been with the same man for 9 years and we have a beautiful daughter. I haven't touched any drugs (besides weed) since that day I quit and I probably drink 4-5 times a year, if that.

Accepting anxiety and not making it your own is huge (we often recommend people name their anxiety something else to highlight that it's not them), having compassion for yourself when you're emotionally heightened is the best thing you can do. Turning to alcohol is just a coping mechanism, not a vice. The key is to continue having grace and compassion for yourself, all the while attempting to replace this coping mechanism with another coping mechanism.

    I got engaged 2/22/22 and I totally understand how to feel, knowing that someone wants to be with you even when you are having a hard time loving yourself means the world and they don't even know it. That's how you know you found the right person. You deserve this!

    Have you ever tried micro dosing Indica gummies? They don’t give you a head high, but just take the edge off. The fact that you are opening up to us about this, is amazing because it normalizes them fact that everyone has their struggles. 💚💚💚

    This is bizarre. This is literally my life right now too! Ive also gained weight the last few years and have struggled to lose it; ive been using alcohol for anxiety since covid started; I just got engaged and it made me so much more motivated and feels so good to be loved dispite my “flaws”; my fiancé scares the shit out of me whenever he walks in the room… legit this is me in one video lmao 🤣
    I also get horrible anxiety when I go to restaurants and often have to leave cause it gets so bad. I 100% relate and you’re not weird for it! It happens to so many of us

      I don’t know how to say this without being obnoxious. I was almost vegan, basically plant based. I suffered the same problems. Anxiety, depression, weight gain. Something clicked in my brain, and I decided to try the opposite. I went full carnivore. Lost a bunch of weight without trying, anxiety gone. Maybe it’s worth a shot for you.

      Same for me! My anxiety has been increasingly worse, I’m engaged now, and often have to leave restaurants because I get too anxious 😬 I don’t drink but I 100% understand the feeling of wanting to do anything to feel less anxious. It’s the most scary feeling!

    Something my therapist told me is that our brains are REALLY lazy, they come up with “programs” and “rules” that “help” us cope with our anxiety or depression and those programs become hard-wired and they’re really hard to un-wire! I’m sooo proud of you Jaclyn and I am even more excited that you feel comfortable sharing this with us and being vulnerable!!! Good for you 🥰

    I've been here since the beginning and I just want to tell you how proud of you I am!!! Realizing an unhealthy relationship with food or alcohol and then trying to change it is so incredibly hard. You have such an amazing support system, we're all cheering for you to succeed!!! Than you for being so honest and real. It's comforting to see that we don't all have out shit together and it's okay!! Can't wait for next week's video :)

    It’s called dry drunk when your brain is all over the place when you’re on your way to sobriety. It even happens with pills ect. It’s so crazy how amazing our bodies are at healing itself!

    Hi Jaclyn!! I suffer from general anxiety which just suuuucks! But I wanted to share this book that legit saved my life when it came to anxiety. I got it both on audio book for the days I couldn’t focus on reading. And the guys voice is SO relaxing ! The book is called “DARE” by Barry Mcdonagh. It really explains why we experience anxiety and how to move through it when it’s happening, sweeeeear it SAVED my life! I hope you feel better!
