Theo Von Thoughts on Staying Sober

hey what's up there my name is my name's miles and I was just kind of wondering on like how you stay sober because I've been uh I've been taken you know some pills here and there it's really fun but you know it's uh I feel like it's just sort of time to turn to quit so I was just sort of wondering like advice on on how to how to deal I guess with you know being sober because you know to be honest it's really boring like I don't like God spending whole days you know the day seems like two days and one now now that I've been sober for for a week and I was just wondering that's funny man uh he said being sober is boring I mean it's sad it's sad and perfect and everything because it is it is kind of boring man it's boring until you're able to start dealing with some of your feelings and what's going on and whatever made you start to you know over treat yourself with medication then it gets interesting dude it gets interesting man when feelings start coming back and you start you start having feelings man you know like what I'm talking about my mom earlier and I get like teared up you know like that's that didn't used to happen to me man you know like I wasn't able to access those feelings dude when I you know when I see like you know one of my friends posted a picture of her and her baby she has new baby and I remember like a couple years ago like telling her like almost was going to like we're almost decided that we were gonna have a baby together even though like we weren't in love or anything we just were maybe going to have a baby just because she's getting a little older and we've always been friends we both wanted just she I thought she'd make a great mother because she's always done like a great friend and she has a baby now dude I looked at Hawkeye Trevor you know her first Mother's Day or something today she tear me up dude so you'll have real feelings man that's one thing that can be exciting bro I know it sounds crazy and probably gay as you know but it's it's exciting bro but what was your question how do I stay sober just wondering like you know I guess how you deal with it and I don't know if you've ever you know taking pills or anything like that but uh you know yeah I was just wondering your dress I like to show and uh actually describe your album so keep it up men well man thank you for the support let me catch your name again I'm sorry hey what's up there my name's my name's Myles Myles thanks to the support Myles I do appreciate it how do I stay sober dude well I just decided that I'm not going to drink or use you know and I didn't decide that I'm gonna do it for the rest of my life because that's a huge undertaking and I can't do anything for the rest of my life I can't if I don't know what the rest of my life is gonna be but I know that I cannot drink or use for today you know I know that and it look a lot of you guys out there Lego dude I drink I use that's fine I look I have no issue if you can drink and you can party you can have a good time and you can live your life in your life's fun and comfortable that's great you know I might be able to do that one day I don't know but I do know that for right now I'm not in that position so how do I say sober man I listen to people that are more sober than I am and I I I try and figure out what my feelings are you know because I don't want to have any feelings I'm sure that's why you take pills do pills bro I remember one time I took a pill next to a new it was Thursday bro and I think when I started it was Friday so it was like a long till dude yeah armor one time some new gave me some sohmas this fellow too was homosexual and he ended up died and he drove a think Chevy Cavalier into an a/c meant embankment and he was a boxer he's a homosexual prize writer but he might have even tried to blow me one time when I was on so Mazzoni remember so our pills fun I don't know I mean it was definitely fun not having any feelings and like just spitting up on my shirt all night it was kind of cool it's like being in the hospital but I was just in the back of a chevy chevrolet blazer but overall long-term is it fun you know I just don't think it's good because I just would love for you to take a chance and see what you're really like if you don't use if you don't use pills you know just take a chance look dude if you don't like who you are we don't use pills go back go back to him bro but at least give yourself a shot to see who you are you're out here you know if you got issues man look clean them up you'll be able to clean them up when you're sober I promise you it's gonna take some times give me a pain in the ass you have to sit and think and write and listen other people probably have to cry and listen to some [ __ ] dudes talk in group settings and stuff where you're like dude shut the [ __ ] up but you'll get better it gets better I promise you that and it's fascinating and it's the ballsiest thing you could do you want to take a pill take a pill of [ __ ] sobriety bro take a pill of you know what whatever life throws at me today I'm gonna look it in the [ __ ] face you know take that pill that's a pill bro you want a pill you want a ride you want a ride I feel and everything so I having conversations with people when shit's uncomfortable and you can't resort to anything else and you have to you have to just tell them how you really feel try that that's a pill bro that's a pill man but I'm here for you miles if you need me you can leave another voicemail a private one on here that I won't use on on the episode and but I don't know how I stay sober man you know I invite a higher power in my life even though I struggle with that every day and I don't try to stay sober forever I'm just trying to stay sober for tomorrow you know but it's amazing I started this podcast in sobriety dude if I was still partying I wouldn't move it I don't think I would have been able to do it I don't know I don't think so and I also don't want to pigeonhole myself and I don't want to tell you that you need it forever I don't want to tell you any of those things I don't want to tell you that a a is a be all cure all end all because if I don't if I don't I'm not sober forever then people are going to be like well you did you know didn't work for him I want to tell you any of that man I just want to tell you that I think it's worth a try you know and I think it's worth the same amount of effort you go you put in to getting pills or using pills just at least give it that same amount of effort see how it works you know it might work well but um but I love you miles man and uh and you know it sounds like you want to at least try to get I don't know better but you want to try to get different so just try to get different man see how different works thank you for calling but I really do appreciate it
