DO THIS To Destroy Your Addictions TODAY! | Russell Brand

"addiction begins in pain and ends in pain" - I definitely feel that....

I think a phone addiction is really underestimated Update: based on the comments and some reflection: the social media apps on it makes you an addict to your phone, not the phone itself.

Why does addiction happen to the nicest and best sensitive people in this world 👀🌎

When I was younger I thought RB was crazy. Now that I am older and a drug addict, everything he says makes so much sense.

I'm 3 years clean. Through 12 step program.🙏🏼💯❤🔥

My daughter at the age of 23 told me she was addicted to meth. I said ok, how often do you do meth? She just said 'I need rehab" Within 24 hours she was in one of the best rehab facilities in Virginia . Thank you Jesus for good insurance. Out of 16 residents, she was the only one for drug addiction.. The rest were ETOH. She took it seriously. It was Christmas time and she had me bring yarn and taught everyone to make hats on those crazy round things. I brought Christmas gifts for the girls. One girl looked at my gift and said... I never got a gift before. She was new to the program and was a heroin addict. Amy speaks openly about drug addiction and says, Mom, you don't know what its like..I get a craving if I open the cabinet under the sink. Chemicals. Oh sweet Jesus. My son, went to the same rehab facility for ETOH. Sadly, the alcohol addiction and undiagnosed mental illness took his life. thank you for letting me vent.

I was addicted to heroin for over 8 years. Also suffered severe depression. Not until my aunt recommended psilocybin mushrooms. I will be 3 years clean in September. This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.

60 days sober from heroin etc. today! Thanks for sharing! Mr. Brand has emerged a fine specimen of a human being, as well as a beacon of hope for an addict such as myself)🙏🎯 Edit: 4 months clean!❤

I’ve been sober for a year and never really dabbled with drugs or alcohol, however I got drunk tonight and I realized how bad it is for someone. It completely tosses away all future inhibitions and only focuses on the moment and what you Can gain from every second that goes by. But in the long run it completely shatters your life, not only taking from your health, your time, your energy, judgement, mental clarity, and so so much more. It’s like living in a dream, a warped reality. Being sober is so much safer and leads to a joyful longterm future as opposed to a short term gratified life

I was a alcoholic (self identified) and a food addict, and also arguably a sex addict. Once I gave my life to God after a very traumatic event, I legit stopped all of this cold turkey, then I to cigs shortly (a pack a day) then another traumatic event happened and then I legit cracked emotionally. It was at that point that I realized I had to free myself from ALL external things, food (I fast consistently), negative people, thoughts and emotions, negative TV, gossip, everything.. Even coffee, I am doing much better now and just take life 1 day at a time

Anyone else out there struggling with alcoholism or another addiction and found your way here? It is awful- if I had known what this was like I never would have started down this path

Day 15 baby !!! I’m going the distance ! I’m going for speed ! Still a little sweaty whatever but dude I look so much better , IT GETS BETTER & just keep saying “ is that all you got ?” .. I laid in bed for 2 weeks in my own pee an vomit an worse , IT REALLY DOES GET BETTUH MATE :)

I think Russell Brand has to be one of the MOST HONEST people alive in the world today. He has made sobriety his mission in life and he not only talks the talk he walks the walk and in doing so has helped many others see the BS in their own life for and set an example for living and being true to oneself and to those around you. Thank you for all you do.

As someone who had to quit drinking a few months ago, I keep coming back to this. It's so wonderful. He's very encouraging and grateful.

This man is a gift to humanity.

The process of recovery 1. Admission of a Problem 2. Taking action and accepting change 3. A willingness to accept help from other people & handing over your will to a higher power 4. Take inventory 5. Sharing the inventory with someone else 6. Being willing to admit you have those problems 7. Sincere commitment to change 8. No longer about the self 9. Helping others 10. Remaining conscious and aware at all times 11. Prayer and meditation, connecting with our own understanding with God 12. Serve others

The biggest problem is we don't even know where addicted until we try to stop. Then the pain and drama begins. Eckhart Tolle really helped me in overcoming all sorts of addictions.

I think addiction is us trying to fill that void in our heart and soul that we all have. Some use healthy things to fill it others drugs. Me was drugs.

Restless, irritable, and discontent. Three words that sums up addiction.

I'm trying to quit opioids and i feel like such a failure because it's harder than anything I've ever done. I'm not even talking about withdrawals, that's the easy part. It's dealing with being in my own skin that i hate. The pills are a crutch that help me get through the madness of being a sensitive human in a crumbling society and doing it alone.
