    I cant tell you how much respect I have for you man.I have only known you for a small amount of time now but this condition and how you are handling it really makes me wonder how much of a strong personality you are.Instead of giving up and lying in bed and doing nothing you choose to find a way to still enjoy life with UA-cam and Social Media,and for that tons of respect for you my brother.I watched through the whole video and I have to say if anyone ever deserved to have succes on UA-cam because it would be such a big impact on their life its definitely you.From the bottom of my heart I hope that this disease will one day be gone and that you will be able to have a social life again and reach those goals you have set out for yourself.Love you brother

    #RESPECT Ches I honestly respect you for making this video, it's never easy to talk about things like this and really respect you for talking so openly about it.

    Wow Ches this was so touching. I have been a fan of the channel for a while now because I have always respected you for always bringing out 2 videos a day and now your bringing out 3 which is just incredible. I watched the whole video and I really do feel for you. Just listening to you talk about your troubles of walking, waking up every morning actually made me take a look at my life and its people like you which make me thankful what I have. I really hope that one day you will live that dream that you have of having a family because you really do deserve it. I pray that one day you will not have to deal with this illness anymore and that you can live a normal life which most people take for granted.

    Hey man ... I have had CFS for 15 years and luckily it started to get better after year 8 ... I still suffer relapses but I was eventually able to work full time and go back to school ... I truly hope you start to recover. I know firsthand the physical and emotional turmoil of this disease .... Please don't loose hope ... Hugs - Rick

    It's funny that I find this on your profile. I was looking through it to find a video and saw this. When I was in sixth grade I was believed to have had this. I could only run about half a mile before getting exhausted to the point of going to sleep anywhere and I couldn't finish school without sleeping in literally every class I had. I nearly had to quit soccer for it. But then for some reason, a miracle of nature that the doctors still have no answer for, the symptoms went away and I was healthy again. In a matter of about half a year the symptoms just disappeared. Glad I found this to find out more about what could've happened

    @Broozy 9 років тому +12

    As someone who is nearly ALWAYS on the move due to my sporting life and general life, I can't even begin to comprehend the difficulties you would endure in your day to day life. I've been a subscriber for quite some time, more of a ghost sub who watches and likes rather then comments, but still here none the less, and I will be here for a much longer time to come. You are truly an inspiration mate, and the fact you are still thankful about your life and what has happened shows your true character. Keep at it mate, I have so so much respect for you!

  • @SA96HD
    @SA96HD 9 років тому +13

    Great respect Ches. I've been watching you for some time now and honestly didn't you had the condition. That just proves how hard your working, but also how you're not letting it get the better of you and therefore preventing you from doing certain things. Keep working hard, respect!

  • @donovankruger6877

    Hey Ches, I just watched this video and I know its been 5 years but damn I cried. Just seeing you being so genuine and open and this definitely helps anyone be more open as well. You are an inspiration to myself and many others, and seeing your more recent videos you have stayed the same genuine and open and honest and caring guy you are and definitely the most relatable UA-camr I have found and I really love the passion and enthusiasm you put into your content for us, and for you to push through the pain and aches to make the amazing content is a testiment of who you are. Much love ❤ from the Bottom of the World in New Zealand 🇳🇿

I really hope your youtube channel continues to grow as it has recently because if anyone deserves to make it its you. All the best mate

    The non-visual illness, is something I can relate to. I have epilepsy, and people always say "well you don't look like you have epilepsy"... Okay, then what am I suppose to look like?
    Respect and support to you Ches :)

  • @sickie12
    @sickie12 9 років тому +44

    You put out the more content than ANY UA-camr I watch, even Canisports up there lol, and to do it with that condition shows dedication, sometimes its hard for me to even get out of bed, I cant imagine how it must feel for you. Especially as a football fan, it is unfortunate that you cant go outside and play the sport we all love

  • @hilly2843
    @hilly2843 7 років тому +2

    I've been watching your videos for only a few months, watching all your recent videos, not knowing of your condition, till UA-cam mentioned this in their list. All I can say pal is HUGE credit to you, I can relate to some of those with me suffering IBS and dizziness, so I can understand the frustration that other people can't see what's wrong from the outside. Never give up, no matter what, good people will always have your back.

  • @nitrowilz3014
    @nitrowilz3014 9 років тому +7

    Truly honest and brave of you to share this with all of us. My deepest respect to you and your strength of being that much more of a man than the rest of us out here. You have not only shown yourself as an entertainer, my favourite Fifa/FM youtuber, but also as a person worth of recognition and admiration.
    Thank you so much for all of this and I would very much like to hear more on your life.

  • @Zenra_
    @Zenra_ 9 років тому +22

    This is so strange! This just popped up on my phone as a few people I am following have shared it.
    I too have ME/CFS! I know how hard it is to have this condition, you go from doing everything to being able to do nothing with no explanation. Well done for doing this video mate. The not knowing is the probably the most difficult thing. It really does take over your life.
    I have SO MANY of the same symptoms and I have experienced so many of the same difficulties. You really forget how many symptoms you have as it just becomes the norm. I can resonate with everything you are saying… and when you say its so hard to explain, I completely understand that and I really struggle to explain the condition to people. It is nice to know you are not the only one, so again well done for doing this and know you are not alone and always have hope.
    Unfortunately I have had to stop making videos because of the condition. I have had it for 5 years. It is impossible to plan ahead as you said, you simply can't commit to doing anything as you have no idea how you are going to feel.
    My friends simply don't understand and they expect me to be able to come out for a game of footy or golf, or to go out on the town drinking. They also say, “why don't you just push yourself you will be fine”. From past experience, and i’m sure you know this, this is one of the stupidest things you can do, if you push yourself you simply use the energy you don’t have and then your body is working its arse off to recreate it which it evidently can’t do.
    You really find out who your true friends are. I have also lost a lot of friends since becoming ill, I know they move on with their lives and I can’t right now but it does show you who really cares.
    I feel I am on the road to recovery and have had some great help with the illness. Unfortunately I have spent SO much money trying to get myself better as the doctors or hospitals can't help no matter how many tests they do! They can see you are not well but can't help you. I too try to manage my symptoms but I refuse to just manage my symptoms, I want to get better so I can go to college and live a normal life. I am currently reading a book called 'CFS Unravelled' by Dan Neuffeur. I would definitely recommend taking a look at it, he had ME and has now recovered. In the book he goes in to what he believes causes it and the steps he believes you should take to recover.
    I used to eat so much chocolate, sweets etc but I am on a new diet called the GAPS diet (Gut & Psychology Syndrome). I haven’t had sugar, carbs, gluten, dairy etc for 16 months which is hard. I just eat meat, veg, eggs and a few bits and bobs. For me, sugar and carbs completely destroy me, my body doesn't handle the sugar. I am really surprised you can eat it but as you said everyone is different.
    Its amazing how you can upload so often! You look great, you don't lose your train of thought very often and you are very articulate which is great so you are clearly managing your symptoms well and I know how hard this is! For me I have no energy mentally or physically. I have definitely improved but I only manage about 20 minutes exercise a day which is going out for a walk. For me, the brain fog is so frustrating. Its that glassy look you get in your eyes, almost as if you are daydreaming and if someone is talking to you it will go in one ear then straight out the other. The psychological burnout is a nightmare, it feels as though your brain will never relax, constantly churning and throwing up thoughts wether they are good or bad. I suffer with severe bloating which drives me mad, I look pregnant half the time. I could literally list most of the things you have explained as I have most of the same symptoms; the sensitivity to light, sound etc, the extremely low pain threshold, memory fog, circulation etc etc.
    Its funny when you say you’re use to the pain, it just becomes the norm and you deal with it. I get bad lactic acid build up like yourself, just moving my arms around like you did in the video is painful. I have excessive thirst and hunger too. I must drink at least 4 litres a day.
    I have gone from playing football and golf, going to the gym, going out, doing everything all the time to not being able to do any of it. I had to drop out of sixth form and stop my A Levels which was really difficult, at the time I didn't know I had ME.
    Really sorry this is so long but I really wanted to reply to this as its amazing to hear your story and I know exactly how you feel. I understand you are very busy but I would really really love to have a chat with you about it. I’m on twitter. My username is @weighty93:)

    "Mess?" Are you kidding me? The part of the video where I really start understanding your pain is when you explained how your life has been affected by your disease. The medical part, I didn't get 70% of it, but keep believing, you are doing a great job on UA-cam! Cheers mate.

  • @MrJR2309

    Massive respect for you, Chris. Long paragraphs not needed, but you deserve your UA-cam success. I respect how you deal with this problem on a daily basis. With your issues you still manage to upload more consistently than plenty of other UA-camrs who have no health issues.

  • @SimplyAshton
    @SimplyAshton 9 років тому +2

    Ches, you're inspirational. To have this awful disease and to still upload daily to the standard you do it remarkable. I have no idea what it must be like living in fear of going out with friends, but I can only imagine how hard it must be. Firstly, let me assure you, your friends wouldn't judge you, be embarrassed, or be the slightest bit effected if you had some sort of reaction in public. You're a good guy Ches, and i'm sure your friends realise this, and if something was to happen, they would all stick together to help you, and carry on. There is no doubt in my mind that you can live a full and happy life, make a family and start going back to the football matches and such.

    I've just watched this after being a subscriber for about a year now and I never knew you suffered from your condition but honestly I have so much respect for you, you make your content daily and at a high quality and your constant were as you see the main stream youtubers realise a video ever week or so and earn thousands of pounds for it were as you deserve it after the hard work you put in daily to make us your subscribers have our video to watch and like you said it keeps yourself going daily. I know you most probably won't see this but I look up to you I got mental health problems and have wanted to see one of many youtubers I watch daily have something I can relate to and I can honestly say your the first one so keep going pal your channel won't stop growing and hopefully you'll be okay one day :)

We don't subscribe to you because you are just good at what you do, but because of your commitment and honesty to all of us, your subscribers. I thank you for everything Ches and I hope that in 10 years you are still loving what you are doing. Thank you

The fact that your lifestyle were just like mine and that im now turning 19 really is heartbreaking!

It sucks that you've been dealt such a bad hand, you seem like a top bloke who's made the most out of your situation and for that you are stronger than most of us.

    Hey Ches, I am extremely sorry for what this disease has done with your life. You are an amazing person and I know this disease slowed you down, but keep on fighting. I want you to know that i will always be supporting you every video and praying for you everyday. Im happy to hear that you got off your benefits and I am glad that I was a part in helping you do so. One day when you your channel is big enough if not now perhaps you could start a research foundation to find a cure. I know everyone and anyone who supports you would donate to help you and thank you for what you bring to us and the UA-cam community. About the friends, at the very least you know who your real friends are and who to keep close. I know its just as hard for them to see a great person like you suffer as much as it is for you to go through it. It hurts me to think about if I had this disease and what I would do with my life. When i watched the video i tried imagining the symptoms and it was almost impossible without me tearing up. I am such an active person with sports as well and to not do what I love would ruin me, but you found a way with UA-cam and that is amazing. We love you Ches and goodluck in the future. I will be with you the whole time. Keep up the good work bud.

The fact that your House-Bound and you still manage to produce amazing content with an up-beat attitude is amazing! I could not even imagine what you go through and how hard it must be knowing you can;t have fun outside of your House, it makes me happy knowing that something like UA-cam can help a person get on with their life and give them something to do if they can't necessarily do anything else, the respect I have for you for doing this video is off the chart mate, keep strong we're all here for you!

  • @meanmelons647

    Ches I have had ME/CFS for a year now and I experience all the same symptoms you do mate so I know just how you feel. Getting emotional is totally normal, it's a lot for a person to cope with but you have done it for a long time so be proud of youself, true fighter you are. You explained the condition perfectly, I have struggled to explain ME/CFS to my family and friends, they try to understand but they just don't truly get it. Now I have your great video I will show it to them so they can understand, thanks a lot Ches, big help. Watching your video made me realise that I'm not alone, and you inspired me to start my own youtube channel as it will give me something to focus on and it's something I wanted to do for a long time but never had the drive to do it until now. I am lucky that I already have my two kids and wife at 27 years of age, keep your chin up mate as you Will have your own kids and family one day, ME/CFS can't take that away from you. It's funny I found your channel as I was searching for ME/CFS videos and found your story, little did I know that you are a Football manager freak! Awesome! I've been playing it since 98 and just picked up 2015 so will be following your videos as I keep getting battered by everyone so looking out for tips. LIKED & SUBSCRIBED!

    I watched through the entire video before commenting and like many others have already said, mad respect for you Ches. And in regards to what you said about not to feel sorry for you, I mostly feel the opposite of that. I admire the outlook you are able to maintain for UA-cam and life in general. Regardless of circumstances that are out of your control, you still feel grateful and genuinely happy to be doing UA-cam. It makes me look at the amazing world that we live in and the extraordinary people, like yourself, that inhabit it. Keep pushing on Ches, you've got 50,000 people behind you.

Watching this video proved to me and hopefully other people that we are lucky in this community and that you are a strong person and you persevere. The thing that strikes me is that you still make videos on youtube that entertain me 24/7. To let you know these subscribers are here because you entertain us and we will be here for you . Personally your my hero an I think you already are an inspiration to a ton of people.

    @Eamtube 9 років тому

    I have had some of these symptoms for about 3-4 years now, it's been ruled as depression and anxiety for me but it could be ME, I have to get more checks and stuff but I get the exact same like having no energy at all and waking up with no energy whatsoever. My friends constantly ask of me to go get a job and everyday normal things but it just feels physically impossible to do and it gets me down and even more negative, I go through long periods inside the house which is mainly taken up by games and films and that but i try my best to do exercises inside. If I do have ME it's no where near as serious as what you go through Ches and you're an inspiration to me in the way of how you can cope with this horrible condition, I hope that in the not too far future there can be new ways to boost people with ME and hopefully a cure! You deserve all the support you are getting!

    Thank you so much for sharing your condition. I didn't know about this at all it really helps me to learn when somebody I interact with shares their experience. I've been watching all your cm mode vidoes for a couple of years now. No need to apologise about anything man you go through so much and do so much for us that we owe it to you to listen to you as well especially since you always listen to us in the comments.
    Thanks again man for opening my eyes and if there's anyway to support please let me know

    Hey Ches, I started following you since Fifa19 and I have watched every single episode of your series. Between all of those who post fifa content I enjoy yours more. I have even started watching your Southhampton series. I don't know why, but today youtube suggested this video to me and I watched this one, the story, and the update. I don't know if your condition has got better since, I truly hope so and I hope it gets better and better every single day. But the fact that over these past years, you have come up with a creative solution, fought back and did not lose your hope is greatly inspiring. Not just by doing something, but making something for others to enjoy. Huge respect and keep up doing what you are the best at.

    I know this is an old video, but I must say something; I respect you so much for speaking about this Chris, must've been difficult, as for when you said there'd be people watching that didn't believe you, when I originally saw this video, I was shocked but, to be clear, I DID believe you, as for the friends you lost if they can't respect the difficulties that you have, to be frank, they don't deserve you Chris!

  • @frankwhitcher7137

    Have watched the both vids bro only recently subbed and you deserve all the support you receive and even more. I legit cried watching this and the condition you have shows how much we take things for granted. The fact that we keep your morale high makes my day and I pray for you to get better because I can't even imagine what it would be like to have your condition. You have missed out on 8 years of your life and not been able to enjoy your youth or go out and experience all the amazing things you could have done 8 years ago. Finally I'd just like to say thank you for deciding to start UA-cam because it keeps you busy and happy but also it makes our (your viewers) happy too.
    Keep it up! 👌

Huge respect for sharing and being so strong to go for 55 minutes! I'm so happy you managed to earn enough to come off of benefits! You deserve the subscribers you have as you're one of few youtubers who produce on a regular basis and are mindful of your fans requests. Keep up the brilliant content Ches!

Hopefully they will find a cure. I know how it feels to lose friends over something that you don't have control over, it's happened to me in the past. I wish you all the best for your future and your youtube channel.

    Mate I have been watching you for a long time and never thought that you had an illness. I appreciate you much more as a person since you're so down to earth. I couldn't help but cry when you were talking about losing friends, man :(
    I have a physical birth defect which is hard to deal with but so much easier to explain, so I can't imagine how it must feel to have ME.
    Good luck to you, mate!

    Ches. I can not put into words how much I feel for you right now. You must have been through so much, yet are still entertaining thousands of people. My heart goes out to everyone that has this stupid disease. We need to raise awareness. Spread it to all the big UA-camrs, maybe use #UsAgainstME ? Or something along those lines. People need to know about this, so we can all support those who suffer from it. Again Ches, never give up. The Ches Army will support you no matter what. X

  • @BrokenBaculum

    Fair play for doing this Ches. I was surprised when you explained your condition, and you seem to "hide" it well. You are one of the most consistent uploaders of content in my sub-box, and you rarely ever miss a scheduling. You never yawn or use your condition as an excuse, we at least not to me as a viewer/subscriber. Well done, chin up and respect.
