    It's really insane just that he's alive with the amount of drugs he has done (not to mention all of the ridiculously dangerous stunts). But it's almost more amazing that he is still so coherent and articulate with such sharp memories about so many of his insane experiences. He is really one of the more remarkable people I can think of

    Lil dude from across the street No, not really. I’m comparing the mental and psychological aspects of an addicts mind. Addicts typically go from one extreme to another, because their brain craves that neurological feeling (dopamine). Typically, addicts that go from drugs to religion don’t just go to church and read the Bible from time to time. Have you ever noticed that? They dive headfirst into religion and go extreme. The same idea can apply to the addict mind in response to drugs. Obviously right? Steve-o is a PERFECT example.👍🏽 However, steve-o doesn’t appear to be one of the those addicts that went from drugs to extreme religion. Anyway, my initial comment was simply a COMPARISON of the two in regard to the addicts brain.🧠

Along with such high level of documentation of all the behaviour with even piles of footage of him intoxicated so it's not even as "inspirational" more than it's just logical. Steve's doing amazing work.

Sex is not as fun as I thought. I think love sounds more fun. I'll find someone else eventually who understands where I am coming from when it comes to sex + love perspective, pov, etc. I have high standards, not high maintenance just picky + selective. As long as you take sex+ love in a healthy, positive, way of course most important. We all deserve better not to settle down for less. Deserve more quality rather than quantity.

    ​@@ipwndrums sugars and bread doesn't cause diabetes, fat causes diabetes, saturated fat and cholesterol cause it. His doctor has told him the old bullshit science that he learnt in school that is funded by the meat, dairy and egg industry. Doctors don't learn anything about nutrition in school, they learn how to prescribe drugs and cut people open, they don't learn disease prevention. In America doctors on average learn only 1 hour of nutrition knowledge in their entire medical degree, basic shit you can google. That's why there's nutritionists and dietitians, they learn about disease prevention with food for years, you don't go to a doctor for food related issues because they do not know. We have known since the 50's that diabetes is caused by fat since Walter Kempner cured the worst diabetes patients there can be with a diet of just rice, vegetables, fruit juice and sugar. He fed them sugar and cured their diabetes. Because sugar doesn't cause it, a high fat diet does. Saturated fat and cholesterol build up causing atherosclerosis, driving fat into the arterial wall and into the muscle cells, which blocks insulin receptors from the inside, that blocks insulin and glycogen absorption causing hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia , or type 2 diabetes. If diabetes was caused by sugar then every single one of the tens of millions of vegans would be diabetic as we eat nothing but carbohydrates, but due to the inherently low fat ''whole foods plant based diet'' we have the lowest diabetes rates of any demographic. Vegan doesn't mean healthy as veganism isn't a diet, it is a moral standpoint against animal exploitation so there are people that dont eat a whole foods diet and still eat shit junk foods containing oil(high saturated fat) like Stevo that will get diabetes, though because vegans are usually synonymous with healthier choices the rates are very low. Stevo described the food he ate, he said he has been out of control and binging on junk food like donuts, candy, I imagine fried foods, chips, pasties etc all containing high amounts of saturated fat that cause atherosclerosis that leads to diabetes.

    Steve-O is a great guy. He's hitting the wall of mortality. Middle-age. I did that a long time ago in my forties. Back then I was thinking, "Woah, this ride DOES HAVE a time stamp on it. What I do with my body can affect or shorten that timestamp. I was to experience love and fun with what time I have left." Facing mortality is a scary thing. I'm now 66. I'm in good health and I don't give a shit. But, I understand that abusing myself with anything harmful or wreckless is just stupid. So, I just don't do it anymore. Sounds like Steve is maturing and facing the reality of aging. That's a great thing. Old, mellow, and wiser is NOT a bad place to be.

    It is clear that Steve-O has an addictive personality. I get that, there's a genetic predisposition to have something like that. Of course on top of that there are a lot of psychological issues that he had/has to deal with, but from his explanation that seems pretty clear. Every time he tackled an addiction, a new one would pop up. Very useful testimony, I would love to talk for hours with this guy.

    I have a lot of respect for Steve-O. I grew up watching Jackass like a lot of others who know about him did, but I wasn't ever a big fan at the time. Not to say I disliked him, but I enjoyed Jackass as more of a collective identity. But listening to him speak now, and in the more recent past, there is an overwhelming sense of unabashed authenticity that makes me respect him. I appreciate how he speaks on this topic, and his sense of self-awareness in how he goes about doing so. I think he has the potential to do great things for others who are currently suffering from addiction. Not that he needs to become some symbol of addiction, or even an advocate, but that the clarity in his storytelling alone could be the voice of reason for those who may not actively be seeking it.

    No matter the approach, as long as the addict sees himself as the victim rather than the most important factor in coming clean, it's not gonna end well. Some addicts get stuck in the "I cannot help it due to ..." Which actually screws them over. They sometimes play the addition is hereditary card and it does not help them at all. Put simply, showing too much compassion towards them enables them to stay addicted sometimes.

    Talk about a success story with this guy. He's not addicted to addiction. He's addicted to being in control of his life and that is badass. Good for you buddy.

    Steve-O's like me - addictive personality. I had to get off booze, and now cigs. He is also SUPER high energy and needs piles of mental and physical stimulation to help with this.
