      The silver lining is, if somebody thinks "I don't want to become like my dad", they're much better than that. Some people react to abuse by abusing other people, and others react to it by rejecting it completely.

      Dude same!!! I didn’t even see this comment yet and said “damn that’s deep” and almost cried (I never cry) when he said that part.
      Idk if you ever saw the WWE documentary “Beyond the Mat”. Made around 1999 or 2000. But when it focuses on Jake the Snake I remember he says how he hated his father not being present in his life and then he cries and says how he abandoned his daughter and says “I hated my father for leaving but my God, I’ve become the same exact thing...the same exact thing”. As a father, that part hit me hard

    My maternal grandfather died when I was 14 years old. I met him for the first time as he laid in a casket. My mother would never take us around him. She had to go through sexual abuse from him along with her sisters. Her brothers used to get beat with objects including hammers. They were even knocked out cold a couple times. She still suffers from all of this and living through it has made her a stronger and more compassionate and caring person. Jake has no doubt suffered because of his experiences. Takes one hell of a human being to be able to push forward like he has.

    Him talking about being afraid of his own children is something ive learned. My dads dad was afraid of children and would never be alone with them for this fear. My dad never changed a diaper never hugged or told me or my siblings about how much he loved us untill we are all now adults. We are all closer to our father now and realized he didnt mean nothing negitive by it. We were never abused but very confused but jake basically said it word for word. Breaking generational trauma takes a life time and I believe my dad and his did made my life easier for me and my children now, who I tell I love and hug every day.

      I wish Joe would have asked more on that. Maybe the sense is unexplainable but how he described the kid's behavior sounded like a typical shy kid too me. As a kid I was horrible at making eye contact, my parents would have to insist on me to say something when talking to a stranger, when I was real little I was one of those kids that hid behind their parents legs, but I was never abused. I guarantee throughout Jake's career he has talked to countless amount of shy kids. What's the difference between a normal shy kid and one that's abused?

      Anyone who says "all you need to do is get help" doesn't know anything about mental illness. It's day to day, sometimes minute to minute, because you really don't know what will trigger and episode because that monster you have inside your head controls everything. Pills make you a zombie, "getting help" buries you because you, as Jake said, don't want to remember, you want to forget and overcome it. . .and the lack of understand everyone has in the general public reinforces the monster's controlling thought that you are everything the monster makes you.

    I was sexual abused as a kid & how he describes the effects of such malice is spot on. The way he describes it reminds me of how I felt when I was going through that as a kid. I still struggle with getting over it sometimes in which I probably need help to overcome but I hope this video reminds other people that went through that, that they are not alone. I always felt like no one could understand my pain & struggles but this shows me other people have & still go through this

    This gun entertained me so much when I was younger. One of my best memories in life is when I went to watch WWF in NJ at Brendyn Byrne arena with my aunt. My parents got us tickets and he wrestled that night. My aunt and I were so excited to see it live and it was her birthday present. She literally CRIED when my dad gave her the tickets to go with me. We were a few rows from the ring and I can’t remember if I ever had more fun in my life. My aunt died of cancer over a decade ago and she was sick her whole life.

    I met Jake a couple of times. Once was during the time when he said that he found Jesus; that was around 1996. He was speaking at a church. Though I’m not particularly religious, I went through my share of childhood issues and some of the things that Jake said brought me close to tears. In this interview, when he mentioned that he can sense that someone’s been through something, that was definitely the truth. When Jake finished speaking at this church event, I came up to him to shake his hand. He must have noticed that I was near tears because he gave me a half hug and said, “You have to let go. You just have to let go.” Thanks very much for uploading this!

I just heard his story and felt inspired to make a change in me. Why would anyone want to question that? And I thought people we're becoming more compassionate, my mistake.
