    As someone with over 20 years recovery from those kinda dark days, well done, it aint easy to break away from the destruction. I'm glad youve found positive things and people, it makes all the difference. A good comic book can truly lift the spirit. Onwards innit...
  • I'm so sorry it took me two months to see this video. This is powerful stuff and you are incredibly brave to talk about your experience. Mental illness is something so many of us suffer in silence, talking about it really helps. Really glad you discovered meditation and crystals, that along with the comics are great ways to cope. My mother suffered from severe mental illness most of her life. She was in complete denial and became angry and defensive when I tried to help her. I too suffer from anxiety and depression and have done my share of self medicating. Anytime you need to talk, please reach out to me. Love you brother.

    I respect this video a lot. Especially putting yourself out there as you did. Based on our interactions together, you're a good dude, Scott. I'm glad to hear you've been able to turn things around for yourself because there are many that don't receive that second chance. Keep your chin up and hang on to that strong support system around you, whether it be through the comics community or some other positive forum. If YOU ever need someone to speak to, if it is venting, talking comics..WHATEVER! My door is always open. I'm happy for you my friend. Thanks for sharing!

    Powerful video bro. Mad respect to you for the willpower to start making different decisions, and continuing to do so every single day. Thanks for sharing man. I gotta say, I don’t have the same history as you, but having Wednesday to look forward to every week has definitely boosted my own mental health. It’s a beautiful thing!
  • Hey brother, saw a nice interview with Brian LCS. This is such a great video that hits home with so many. I extended the offer to you as well my friend. I live in the Netherlands 🇳🇱, not close but always close enough for a message. You have a tough story and some of the nicest people have gone through a lot. You are a warrior! It's a day by day, moment by moment thing when it comes to depression. Sometimes these tough times give you the best lessons. Smarts comes in school and wisdom comes with experience. 🙏

    I heard about this video from Brian-LCS who, in his latest video, recommended we all watch it. This is a powerful video, and you are one hell of a brave person to share all of this. Other than a little weed, I have never been a drug user so I don’t know what going through that feels like. You have my utmost respect for digging out of that darkness, and I am glad you survived, and are here with us in the comic book community. If you ever need it, we have your back. Thanks you for sharing this.

    I was going back watching some of your older videos and found this. Wow. so glad you are here, and with us brother. I've never had this struggle, but have witnessed it first hand with people I love. It can grab ahold of you and won't let go until you are truly ready. I'm glad you were ready. Glad we could be a small part of your recovery.

    Awesome man. This was a great video. It's the feeling of the ecstatic, just from reading a comic. And it's incredible that they can do that. And with meditation you realize the ecstatic is all over life. Share brother
