Which is what is great about this album. It’s so underrated and people take it the wrong way. A lot of this album “relapse” is exactly when he relapsed, so he described staying home and staying awake for days on ends watching movies/tv/documentaries on serial killers etc. which is what influenced a lot of his lyrics in this album. It’s really a work of art. The lyricism and everything is intense. Glad he’s finally out of it and rapping to his full potential without drugs. But this album is awesome and extremely underrated and misunderstood
Thanks so much Zach!😊👍
You made it sound like you’re saying em relapsed so he made the relapse album don’t know if I’m misunderstanding you but if not, that’s not the case. Em was already sober for the whole relapse album process. With the exception of a verse from beautiful
@@DanGeezyPresents I wasnt meaning it that way, I figured he was going back to tell the story of his past in later years. Thanks for checking on that
It's great story telling real hip hop one of my fav albums
Best em album. My personal favourite anyways. Stay wide awake is godly 🔥
This song helped me quit alcohol and pills. I started drinking heavily when I was just 14. It started with sneaking some of my dad's whisky every night after my parents went to sleep, and after a while I started getting my own bottles and hiding them in my room. I was getting blind drunk every single night and buying pills from people at school. I didn't even care what the pills were, I just took them. I stumbled across this song and started listening to it a lot because I knew deep down that I was becoming the person he was describing in the song and that I really didn't want that for myself or my family. One night my parents came home and found me passed out on our bathroom floor. They woke me up and I remember seeing my mom crying and my dad looking totally defeated. After that night I decided to quit drinking and taking pills because I knew I was at the point of no return. I started smoking weed to keep myself from relapsing and got totally hooked on it and ended up smoking weed every day for 9 years. A few months ago, I managed to quit smoking weed after many failed attempts and now I've been sober for 4 months.
To anyone reading this who's in a similar situation: I spent 11 years of my life either drunk or high. It feels like we need to keep going just to feel normal but trust me, I feel 100X better now that I'm sober. Quit while you can because every day that you don't, it only gets harder. God bless.
I'm so happy to hear you made it through all that. You're a warrior.
That's amazing🥲🥲🥲 almost made me cry, eminem really can do thatbwith his lyrics
I'm glad you're still here with us
I’d love to hear this fella analysis
“Stay Wide Awake”
By Slim Mathers
I hope Eminem - Rock bottom is on the list.
It is such a unique and raw song that very few have ever been able to put into words.
Demo version is even rougher!
Just listened to that the other day to celebrate him being the most certified artist in RIAA history. "I ain't never went gold off one song, I'm running up on someone's lawn with guns drawn". He's come a LONG way from Rock Bottom. It's a shame that it isn't one of his gold, platinum, diamond records, but it's also not the subject of pop songs either. Love it. I hope he covers it.
agreed ! and if i had - Eminem
Rock Bottom would incredible for this channel
he also recorded that song in 1996 just a few hours before he swalled an entire bottle of tylenol (trying to commit suicide) but luckily survived by throwing it all up and then couple years later he met Dr.Dre and Dre even said it was that song and "i just dont give a fuck" that made him realize hiss talent and potential! Long story short NEVER GIVE UP
The way he describes the spiral is just so accurate, I have my demons mostly under control these days, however there was a point where things got really dark in 2019 for a while with my drinking, and depression, everyone had abandoned me, and no one knew how bad it was, lashing out people, who still to this day don't understand why I did.
Thanks for the description 😊👍
Well bro keep drinking it feels good I’ve been drinking till 10 and I’m 17 and I’m perfectly fine
@@Its_Miguel19 who’s the master mind behind that little line?
@@Its_Miguel19yeah don’t listen to what this fool says
@@Its_Miguel19 sure baby nigga sureeee
9 year addict (I'm 22) here. This song has helped me so much, currently about 3 weeks clean
Keep going mate, it's so great on the other side :)
Hope you're still doing well!
Well done brother, you will be good don’t worry about your past
Keep strong brother, u r your own master
How u doin
I love that second and third verse where he's describing life after convincing himself a half a beer is OK. In the recovery world they call that "playing out the tape". He goes into the full story of what that half of beer turns into and he ends up right back where he started. Such an amazing storyteller. Has the beer, gets a hangover, takes a pain pill for the hangover, then he's taking so many painkillers until he's physically addicted to it, now he can't sleep so back to the sleeping pills trying to say it's cool until the kids come home from school and it just keeps going...I love how he approached that.
This song is a lyrical masterpiece. It has insane rhyme schemes while telling the minute details
As an addict… this song and this video perfectly captures what it’s like to be an addict and its cleansing to watch
Hope you got clean or can get clean 🙏
same, i tear up every time i listen to it, ive decided to stop this day because of it, wish me luck
“Going thru changes” has to be the next Eminem reaction. It would follow this perfectly. Not to mention it is one of my favorite em songs
Secnded!
Yes! Going Through Changes should definitely be the next Eminem reaction!
Oh man this song, as a teen dealing with my own demons, wondering if I'd ever leave my shit hometown, this song spoke to me so much, if only I could tell myself back than I'd be across the nation in only a handful of years.
Also almost 8 years clean now ♡
@@cariann2220 same here that song was like my "you gotta change" anthem back in the days, 5 years clean now! :D
@@richiemeilleur8342 I'm really happy for you! I love seeing people get better
This comment gave me hope
I'm in the middle of nowhere 3rd world remote shit town no life no nothing I hope I get out soon
@@Ab-cj6gl I highly recommend it, it took someone i knew leaving and me following them to get out after that i met new people and moved more. No place makes me feel the way my hometown did though, and even going back there is hard on me as it brings back those old wounds, but I definitely do not regret picking up and leaving one bit. I hope you make it out.
Lol "u don't wanna hit rock bottom"
Me bout to request Rock Bottom by Eminem 🤷🤣🤣🤣
Yes! Extremely powerful song that I think would be perfect for this channel!
Perfect!!!!!
One of my favorite Eminem songs
Lol
Love this channel so much helps me so much think about everything, I'm currently sat in hospital with kidney failure because of past of addiction and suicide attempts and listening to you explain everything really helps me get through this hard time, because I'm really struggling mentally bit your explanations really help
Hang in there man.
Thanks so much Jake!😊👍
Much love your way ❤❤❤ wishing you the best
you’ll get through this
Do it again homie 💯💯💯💯
Relapse truly has some amazingly gut wrenching songs, Déjà vu is such a good example of Em’s story telling ability while also showing off his lyrical prowess. Another great song from relapse that you should listen to is “My Darling” truly one of Eminem’s best stories/songs in my opinion. Thank you creating this amazing content
Thank you for the comments and request! Appreciate your support 😊👍
You should do "Love The Way You Lie". It focuses on toxic relationships on which I guess you'd have some great insights as a therapist. It's one of his most famous songs and it's hard to find someone to react to it since most people have heard it before. It features Rihanna
Cool thing about this channel is you often find some songs you can really relate to. I know the song from when I was younger but didn't understand it until hearing it again being older and having experienced some stuff.
Eminem has shared quite a bit of himself...his life ....with us through his music! I believe it's why he has such loyal fans! He makes you feel like you know him and what he raps about is so relatable to us all!!! His songs have helped me through some pretty rough times! Especially after my divorce.....his music actually brought my son and I closer than ever before! I can never repay Eminem for what he did for us/me!
Nice take!!😊👍
I love this reaction. Hits home when you talk about addiction, why I always loved this song.
Almost 5 years sober!
This is actually one of my fav albums and songs this album sadly got me through a lot I've relapsed about six times and am so glad he's sober but from someone who's still an alcoholic I can relate and sympathise so much
Man I love this channel so much. The past couple of months these videos have become an important part of my evening that I look forward to! Much love Tom and the whole Reaction Therapy family!! ❤️
Thanks so much Ryan, appreciate the ❤️
Should do going through changes by Eminem great song
I second this
That’s my favorite em song 🔥🔥🔥
I love the pickle/cucumber analogy. Tbh it's a bit disheartening to hear there's no going back but reassuring knowing you can overcome.
Great vid and insight as always! Glad you enjoyed this, definitely a classic
Thank you!😊👍
Yey Eminem 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Reacts to Space Bound Sir please !!!!
Love your reactions!!!!!
One of my all time favorites
I cosign on this statement.
Love it to this day.
One of my favorite Eminem songs. I also love Space Bound and a song by Lil Wayne ft. Eminem called Drop The World. Thanks for all you do Tom and your son. Hopefully Jelly Roll is getting closer to the top of the list :)
Eminem’s music was one of the things that helped me get clean. Was addicted to Oxycodone for 4 years. Been sober now for 20 months.
What I like about this song is the self-irony he uses and the peppy beat that seems to counter the subject. The same words on a different beat might make this a completely depressing song. I love this song.
That's relapse. Meaningful/Depressing/Shocking lyrics with fire production. Awesome and Unique
The “christmas with pneumonia” was when he passed out and was taken to the hospital. The story he told in Castle and Arose
You’ve helped me through my recovery so much. Been clean off opiates for 3 years now. Thank you.
Be Careful What You Wish For - Eminem would be a great sequel to this video. A great song where Eminem talks about dealing with fame.
Em can tell a song like few others.......tough content, but so happy he recovered, and kept going......and keeps getting BETTER #goat
I been there man, 7 years sober and he and you put it in words i can't but SPOT ON, it turned me into a liar, thief and just a mess. BUT woke up news years day 2012 and WAS TIRED OF BEING TIRED, chasing it every day so decided as hard as it was to confess to all my loved ones and they helped me through it. JUST takes that one moment to get the will to stop...but i wasted 3 to 4 years of my life.its a blur those 4 years and can't get those yrs back, lying to yourself worse lie you can tell. GREAT reaction
This song actually means SO MUCH TO ME, my sister unfortunately became addicted to percocet, she fought the addiction for 4 years, she eventually lost this battle. She was a Christian and I won't be able to see her again until I get to Heaven myself. However, l know that addiction can be defeated, I beat my own addiction to alcohol 1 year ago and I'm never looking back! I love God our Heavenly Father, I love my family and I have finally gotten myself into a very happy and comfortable life! 🇺🇸🇮🇱♥️⛪
Brilliant how he lays the melodic tones of life to written verse. He changed the Rap Game forever.
Great reaction, hit everything on the head. 30yr opiate addiction, 362 days clean, feel like I'm 19 in a 51yr old f**ked up body but at least I'm clean
Damn this Song hits different when you can relate to everything.
Sing for the moment - Eminem
One of my fav its really good
Please please listen to “Eminem - Legacy” it’s about him learning to cope with his life and how the fact he’s different is actually a good thing instead of the negative notion he’s grown up with.
You should check out Eminem's song Beautiful. It's a slower emotional piece that's pretty good. I think you'll really enjoy it!
It's a shame how underrated this album is! Love your video Dr.
Thank you!😊👍
Stronger than I was and never love again. (I think you'd really enjoy both of these after your reaction to this)
Seeing you react to this has made my week, I absolutely love this song, and Eminem, and this is my favourite album of all time. I was introduced to it when I was around 12😂😂 and I’ve been obsessed ever since, the rhyme schemes and instruments are consistently amazing through the whole album
THank you so much! Appreciate the ❤️
Prime candidate for the gene addict trait?
@@advancedscarecrow blood pressure climbs at a dramatic rate
Im so thankful for your insight as a psychotherapist... Its really helping me acknowledge my own issues(non addict, but still obviously have my own issues).. I have a beautiful 8 yr old daughter and the relationship with her mom is very toxic... Ive noticed in my case, when stuff is really in the gutter i fall back on eminem songs... because it relates so deep to what im going through (im not some crazy stan fan) But hearing him sing about his issues, really helps me realize im not alone, and if eminem(with all his fame) can get through it..it really gives me hope, and drive to be a good father and man... but again, i noticed when i start listening to eminem lots, its a sign that things arent going good in my personal life.. so im very thankful for your wisdom and advice through your reactions... just facetimed my daughter to remind her how much i love her and ill never leave her... so again, thank you reaction therapy and eminem
Everyone share this link with Eminem. I’d love to see him sit down for an Interview on here
Amen! Where do I send it??😂😂😂👍
5:19 I’ve been sober for a month and relapsed today and thought I was having a good time until hearing this big eye opener and so true
Relapsed today too, what do I even do
I genuinely appreciate this one , this is my sober song it helped me more than most other things
Clicked on this faster than a crack head cashing his cheque, man I've been waiting for this one Tom🥃
😊👍
'Without it you're nothing' That really hits for me because that's exactly how I feel. I'm struggling with alcoholism right now and trying to be a better man so I can start a family and be there for those I love. 'Without it you have a chance' that has to be my mind frame. Sorry for the random comment but felt like I had to make a... random comment after hearing that. Thanks.
I’m 20 years old and I’m an addict. I haven’t had a long history of using but even with that being the case, addiction hits you whenever you least expect it. There’s a very fine line between experimenting/recreational using and actual addiction. This week I’m 1 year sober and the recovery process has been good so far (ups and downs, of course, but overall good). My rock bottom was developing a psychotic break for several months where my reality was completely distorted due to the abusive use of several drugs and a pretty heavy isolation. I have to thank my mother for my current state, cause without her I wouldn’t have gotten the help I needed. It’s still hard to fully accept that it’s a lifetime disease and you have to be very careful and live an organized lifestyle. To everyone out there struggling with this problem, there is hope, and I’m sure you can do this. The most important thing to understand is that it takes time to heal and you don’t have to do this alone, get help and get well. Loved the reaction, much love from Spain!
I just found your channel a few days ago, watching starshopping w peep. It’s hard to explain but you can understand a song, but when you break it down it has a completely different meaning. Deja vu is such a good song, probably one of my fave by Eminem
Thanks so much for watching and for this comment!😊👍
I think my favorite line in the whole song is "and since I'm, convinced that I'm an insomniac, I need these pills to be able to sleep, so I take three naps". Hits so hard. Like he can't sleep without the pills cuz he takes the pills to sleep, so now he 'needs' them in order to sleep, but also he takes three naps just so he has an excuse to take them more often. It's such a crazy line to break down
Eminem is one of the only RAW artists in the world who portrays and describes things to such a graphic extent he paints reality for many people out there.. its why he is such a legend that stands out amongst every other musician seen by the world so far.
This, to this day, is the single hardest song to listen to, but I go to it sometimes to remind myself how destructive addiction is. It’s the “Requiem for a Dream” of songs. Oy….
I love Eminem's self awareness here
This is my favourite relapse track, great reaction!
Wooooo gotta do “going through changes” next, to get a more serious version of his overdose
Yeah Changes is another great song by Eminem that deals with similar situaitons.
Great reaction again! thank you😉 lookin forward for the next. Greetings from the netherlands!
Hello Netherlands!!! Thanks for watching 😊👍
Legit video to one of my favorite songs!
Man this brings up a lot for me. Me and my 4 friends at 14 use to blast this song and a lot similar while getting black out. We all came from a pretty horrendous past and we all bonded on our truama and did what we knew to make the pain stop. Drink. For 3 years of highschool everyone watched our lives slip out our hands. We were drunk on the schoolbus, in class, in the hall on the streets. Our grades dropped significantly, we were sick all the time from being hungover. We all had a vicous cycle consume us. We displayed ourselves. No one cared. None of us managed to finish highschool we dropped out one by one. I no longer drink and I'm finishing school now. One friend is in rehab. The others are still lost. I now can fully acknowledge that we played this song and lots more as a cry for help.
Great video bud! Still gonna be here asking you to cover "Eminem- Going Through Changes". It's a pretty emotional song about his sorrow at the loss of his child hood friend Proof, who was shot outside a club in April of 2006. Eminem also describes overeating, daytime napping, and pill-addiction, he ends the song with a note of love and empathy for his ex-wife Kim
U gotta react to “beautiful” by Eminem such a classic
The church organ on the chorus is absolutely haunting. It’s sadly such a relevant and powerful song
Lol I'm relatively new to the channel so i actually asked for this reaction not knowing you've already done it. It's everything i expected and needed. I love how Eminem was able to lay bare how addiction goes in such a smart way throughout this song.
This was always my favorite album. It was just so different.
i really appreciate your analogies on being an addict for life even after becoming sober. i drank alcohol everyday from age 14-25, was in the hospital 3 times within a year kissing death with a failing Pancreas (worst pain i ever felt)
i was finally able to kick it and now 2 years sober but it is still a struggle EVERY single day.. i have to just stay away from it but its so hard. thank god i have been able to stick with it so far.
Side note: AA is NOT for me. it made me drink twice as much. i got sober on my own
Hold on ! i am a believer:)! GREAT work!
"Do What You Love", "Ghosts", " Legend of the fall" All three songs by Slaine...
i just jam out to his songs but when i watch your videos i actually listen to what hes saying and its crazy
It's insane how scarily similar him and Elvis are, with the pills and being surpunded with "Yes Men" both raised and surrounded by black culture and uaing it to launch into fandom. Eminem was requested, and openly accepted the request to make a song to play at the credits of the Elvis film.
Really enjoyed your reaction & from someone who went thru it , he painted the picture perfectly.. 8 yrs sober now, from a prescription addiction of benzo's, that turned into opiates & 3 times the amt of benzo's for a real anxiety disorder.
But my pusher was a Dr, that just get throwing more Xanax at me, till I was so numb I didn't feel anything..
Took a dui, & a rough 2 yrs to wake up but so glad I did. I was taken 12-15 mills of Xanax a day, and somedays another 120-150 of oxy on top of it. Yeah, I know enough that would kill most people ...
Who knew the rapper that became my favorite at 22, for his technical abilities would inspire and motivate me to stay clean thru my early 30's..
It's not easy, not gonna sugar coat it.. but there is a better life at the end of it. You gotta make that decision on your own though & yeah, you might slip. But, it's not how many times you fall.. it's how many times you get back up.
Best of luck to those going thru it or in recovery. Keep your head up. Don't isolate yourself, there are those out there that will help you.
Very well said! Thanks for sharing your story! Another great perspective!😊👍
I NEED Tom to react to Beautiful By eminem, please make it happen Nick:), love to both of ya!
Going thru changes and talkin 2 myself are great eminem songs where he talks about more of this stuff
Another fire reaction, gonna put the list here again just to help with the options, love from Brasil.

As a former painkiller addict, this song is awesome. He's literally explaining the addict mindset and those inner battles in your conscious that any of us can relate to. I'm clean now but I still listen to this song to remind myself not to go back to my old life. He does a great job of portraying the the justification and mental gymnastics associated with drug addiction too
I’m currently battling with alcoholism and your commentary really speaks to me
Dude you're a legend for doing this.
At 37 I've been a drug addict since 16. Pills, h, an everything in-between. I grew up listening to eminem go through his drug addiction. After 5 years sober I can say things get better. I'm happy to be alive today to be a dad to my little girl.
Song request. Haystak - my first day
If you love story telling with a shock you should react to Immortal Technique--Dance with the Devil.
Another day another great video. Appreciate what your doing!!
I’m literally the first person waiting on the live stream video 🤪 you guys deserve the 100k can’t wait to see the silver plaque!! 🥳🥳🥳
Thanks so much David! We really appreciate it 😊👍
Going through changes and Leaving Heaven next!
This channel is amazing, I can’t believe you’re covering this song.
this is easily one of THE BEST reaction videos I have ever seen.
Thank you, always a pleasure to watch your reaction.
I hope you can react to some of his songs in kamikaze album and most importantly the ringer, the whole song basically dissing all the haters and how he feels after everybody turning their back on him after revival album.
You gotta do a reaction to his song "My Darling" after doing this one
Have had this on repeat for a few days, what are the chances. GOAT.
When he says cause you and I almost had the same outcome Heath cause that whole pneumonia thing was balonia. It's a reference to Heath Ledger who passed away from a drug overdose, but for a while people tried to claim it was due to pneumonia/flu
Amazing reaction 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!😊👍
Should follow this up with Going Through Changes
Eminem be careful what you wish for
Love this Album, Greetings from Germany!
I like the irony of how Em makes most of the commentary this gentleman would make in this song as he listens to it in the song itself.
Day 6 asking for
(2/3 is from the same album u just reacted 2)
Eminem - My darling
Eminem - Stay wide awake
Eminem - Marshall Mathers
Been waiting for this one
As someone who is diagnosed bipolar 1, and has felt like this every time I am manic , this song hits hard for me.
I’ve overdosed multiple times, and just get every line of this song. Last time I was manic and overdosed I ended up taking an entire months worth of Xanax in a night. I got to the hospital fast enough I guess but the EMT had to do a sternum rub to wake me up (rub is such a weird word for this, it hurts a lot)and the doctor said I was probably a few minutes away from undoubted death.
MORE EMINEM
"Point of No Return" and "The Martyr" by Immortal Technique.
I'm an active addict. My poisons are alcohol and the devil drug (crystal) and eminem is my favorite artist ever of any genre and his songs about his addiction are all very inspiring to me and make me know that there's always still hope.
Been here for a while brotha! Congratulations on 100k! Try listening to Slump6's! I'd love to hear your reaction!
I love this channel so much
Thank you!!😊👍
Should listen to my mom by Eminem
"Still Get Through The Day" as well as "Who Do We Trust" by R.A. the Rugged Man and "Society is brainwashed" by Ill Bill would all make interesting reaction vids.
More Eminem please
