I thought the same thing.. I was confused because he talked about how he was so ashamed of having a small dick that he wouldn't let the doctors take his pants off when he had a heart attack, so that didn't really make sense to me.
Dude wtf, just this random video on sex addiction and Steve-O drops like one of the most powerful quotes I’ve ever heard. “They just wanna stuff old people away because they serve as a constant reminder of our own mortality”. Holy shit!
Humans are biologically programmed to have a sex addiction, it's the ONLY reason our species has survived this long. Seeking help for it proves they're addicted to addiction treatment
This clip exceeded my expectations. It went deep very quickly and I thought the part about addiction was eye opening. I could relate to the part about seeking behaviors that validate our core belief of shame.
Kevin gets it when he said that why should I get mad at something I cant control? Im just gonna create my own world. Thats important stuff to understand right there!!!
Shame is integral in addiction. Shame is the feeling of being unwanted as a result of some thing a person has done or failed to do and when people feel unwanted, they act out in ways congruent with that. Recovery is counterintuitive as our first instinct is to feel shame for getting caught up in the cycles of active addiction but shame only feeds Into active addiction. Counterintuitive as it might seem, self-forgiveness and not shame is essential in recovery.
@Dutch Plan Der Linde, people use drugs to come up on an artificial high to counteract the natural low they feel inside themselves. If someone is better liked when they are high, that just means that while self-medicated, the person is more pleasant to be around but the root cause of their issues will only get worse and their self-medication will become less and less effective over time and come with harder and harder side effects. It’s easy to see a physical wound. It is hard to see an emotional wound and in order to heal them, we have to feel them, which requires sobriety. The word “sober” stands for Son Of A Bitch Everything’s Real and a persons got to be real with themselves to heal.
Sex addiction/addiction flowing into hospice..wow! I work with our senior population with stints in hospice, end of life is the height of spiritual experience. We shouldn’t dismiss the wisdom our elders provide. May all of us work to attain the gift of self-realization and peace as we near our passing from our existence here on earth 🙏🏻
4:20 - This hits hard because of a neighbor of mine took a food addiction and traded it in for an alcohol addiction. They got a bypass surgery that helped them loose weight wonderful but they didn't account for how addicted to food they were. When that stopped it jumped to alcohol.
I've watched for quite a while now and admit didn't pay much attention to Scott until this upload. Dude is a fucking champ!!!!!! Steve was about to maybe blow answers (understandably) but Scott was on it instantly every time! I'm sorry to Scott that I may have missed that gladiator quality in many many prior uploads (I don't see them all) but I hope you know how important you are! No clue, maybe tens of thousnads of yt videos over the years and ive NEVER experienced that! Massive massive props to all! Mucho love from Canada dudes! IBEW 894!
🙏For any one dealing with any kind of addiction. Usually you use it as a crutch or substitute so you don't have to process any negative emotion. In my specific case pornogrophy and compulsive mastetbation is a tool to avoid the boredom and isolation of solitary lonely life. This became a gateway to seeing escorts (although i haven't done that for over a year and half) because truth be told I don't think I've ever really processed the grief after my mom passed away in 2013 or overcome a childhood fear of rejection. Hope everyone reading this finds the peace love and joy we all seek 🙏
really really good conversation guys!!! fyi... the electronic beeping static noise...is most likely a cell phone and its internet/backround apps running..... ive recorded for a long time and had that same sound and found it was my phone when plugged into the mixing board. Keep up the good work!
It almost seems like Steve-O is addicted to recovery or rehab. Kinda like drug addiction becomes part of a person's identity, being in recovery is almost the same in that sense.
I live in South East Asia and I see a lot of older basket cases. I had a friend from the UK in his 60s drank like a fish out on the piss for days. We all looked at him as an example of what not to become. He tried to get sober but relapsed many times. Now he's back in the UK. My friend she called me a grey fox I'm doing my best to stay sober. I still drink on but not like before. I was a mad drinker in Asia had to cut way back. Here its crazy you can buy a beer and a nitros balloon at an underground bar. Trying to kick that as well. I'm traveling more and when I do I drink less just if I run into some friends who are heavy drinkers. You can drink for days over here as you can always find a bar or place to drink. Its mad very easy to fall into full blown alcoholism. Also sex as there are brothels everywhere around Asia. Its crazy and cheap sex is almost like buying booze here. I'm writing a book about my experiences plus am published in a book "You're crazy volume 2." I also teach English and promote and write about underground music. I'm trying to remain sane and mostly sober over here and live to a long age. My dream is to be able to get my own book published and go on a book tour around the world telling my stories. These podcasts are a big inspiration.
Intelligent and considerate conversation. A rarity in 2022. Most people are commodities these days. Sadly creating content is more important to people than life itself.
He said “you’d make out like a bear bandit” 😂😂😂😂 That’s hysterical. I read Russell Brand’s book trying to get sober and he explained it perfectly. To put yourself in dangerous horrible situations just to have that sexual experience, regardless of what the partner looked like or how you felt about them. I don’t have that one thank God. Opiates were enough, food is another. I lean into the feel good.
I am a love addict, I went to better help therapy after a bad drunk black out that shook me up because I could off been raped. My therapist was amazing a ex addict so not just someone reading off a book. She told me I was a borderline alcoholic and a love addict I thought I was a alcoholic ( drinking since I was 11 and I thought I was a sex addict loved sex since 16 and that is legal in Scotland) she made me do a 3 month detox off everything no drinking and no sex texting or porn it was so hard But the best thing I did and now I am 42 single for 3 years and on a self love path and not looking for love or one night stands . I write poetry and sing and try play guitar and I am in control off my vices I do drink but not to get drunk just grown up social. I went to a northern soul night had 4 drinks a cola and ice water I relised can dance and enjoy music without being drunk and no anxiety depression hangovers off guilt because I can’t remember or waking up with strangers or in strange places. I feel great
Being an ex heroin addict I'm still not convinced it's a disease but I guess a person's notion on what a disease is can differ from person to person but generally a direct result of a physical injury.
I was addicted to meth, then pain pills, and eventually methadone. I've been clean going on 15 years now, I've never looked at addiction as a disease either.
Still smoke weed myself, but I consider alcohol and cocaine an "allergy", Timmy can't eat peanuts, I can't have alcohol or coke. Also my bank account also seems to be allergic to my bar tabs while doing coke hahaha
It’s not an addiction to being yourself, it’s an obsession. Simply put they can be misinterpreted but in an honest way, you are being yourself and avoiding conscious hazards or self grief
I think anything you do repeatedly, whether it’s from work or fun can become addictive. It really depends on the person and why they are seeking those behaviors. I’ve seen people who enjoy their work because it gives them purpose and others who enjoy the escapism of the rest of the world. I’ve definitely been on both sides of the fence and symmetrical to what you can experience.
Irs really impressive how you managed to get and STAY sober steve o,'you are inspiring a lot of uss.🤘😎 Any addiction is hard. Do you have a video Of how you did it?😄
@@jr2904 Based on what? Making a living doing what he loves? Having meta jokes and commentary in every film he has ever made? His foray into horror? The films he directed but didn't write? His guest writing a few comics? How, EXACTLY, is Kevin FUCKING Smith a sellout?
I've known people recovering from drugs who fall into sex addictions when they were detoxing from substance abuse. Its common for opiate addicts especially to have an increase in their libido when detoxing and become hypersexual during the withdrawal process.
I was addict for 15 years to crack n heroin now 4 year clean but it is true when u get of one thing something else pops in to the mix but I now have a little boy who in 3 xxxxx we love ❤ u steve o 💙 ❤ in uk
Stevo your experience is better then kids that hurt themselves today. Maybe I am to old to say this I as 28. But their eas a death in your team. And I think u have been the beautiful. Hopefully not obnoxious to your addicted friends. It is a hard line m.
Being old and having 100 million in the bank is a far cry from being broke and old. I live in my own filth in an apartment I can barely afford. I haven't been able to do laundry or wash myself in over a year now. There is no real help since my family has all passed. The Gov't just wants me to die!
I remember when my mom was dying and she got put on hospice. I thought there was a chance she could get better. My sister had to explain what hospice was.
2:04 firschovch...I'm gonna change (aka revise) the definition of words so that I can insert my own affirmations into the general public's view of xyz.... Yeh oka sure....

Click bait

Same.
I hate it.

You guys are great for talking openly about all of these addictions and how there are so many

Steve-O and Kevin Smith are national treasures and I wish them all the happiness and long life that they deserve.
yeah, great and insightful conversation
Kevin gets it when he said that why should I get mad at something I cant control? Im just gonna create my own world. Thats important stuff to understand right there!!!
Kevin Smith is such a chill dude. Being able to sit and talk with him for a couple of hours would be such a experience.
I love Kevin Smith I really do, but sit down with the man for two hours and you'll barely get five minutes to do any talking of your own.
Damn I think it's easier for Steve-O to name the things he's hasn't gone to rehab for
Steve O has the only podcast that he brings on celebrities to interview him 🤣
Kevin smith is the best. He’s always asking great questions as well as giving thoughtful answers.

That's what mostly happens people will jump to another man it's sad.
This is how all communication should be! Screw all the mundane small talk. If your going to talk to someone, talk to them about shut that matters.
I love when Steve-o gets philosophical about existential dread... you're not sure if you want to laugh or cry
When I hear his voice, i don't want to hear.
Kevin Smith is such a well spoken guy.
And he never ever shuts up
This addition is a real deal. I hope more conversations around this addiction make it more into the limelight
When steve o said chemical sobriety and the other guy said he'd get two chocolate sundaes I was surprised, because theres a lot of caffeine in cacao
I've watched for quite a while now and admit didn't pay much attention to Scott until this upload.

That WAS an awesome clip... Thanks for this podcast and the great conversations you bring..
18:48 “being addicted to shame” that is so accurate it’s scary🤯.
love that reference to that episode of Batman the animated series from Kevin Smith. Also, interesting convo about addictions!
This MIGHT be One of the Most Fascinateing Conversations i ever Withnessed
Woah, that covered so much. Great chat between 3 great guys. Thanks
Boy has Steve-O evolved. So happy to see that these guys are happy and healthy. Big thumbs up for this episode.

It might be even better to call this "Kevin Smith On Real Self". Great video. My feeling is there were 3 non-neurotypical people in that van!
I love Kevin Smith, Tusk is underrated
It is
I love Kevin smith but tusk sucked!!!!!!
Addiction can and will change somebody into a completely different person
Who are you ? wasn’t expecting such a deep conversation. Wow! You’ve really grown up.❤️❤️I’ve really enjoyed this video .
Kevin Smith petting the furry wall like he smoked a Jeffrey
I seen Stevo back in the day. He was mad.. sad..and sick. I would love to see him sober. I bet his show is 100x better now!
He is sober 15 years
Intelligent and considerate conversation. A rarity in 2022. Most people are commodities these days. Sadly creating content is more important to people than life itself.

I feel great
Can relate.
I'm also addicted to sex. Only problem is I'm not getting any sex.
Are you sexing yourself? If yes, can you stop?
This guest will cut you off in a heartbeat and go off on an strange tangent
Steve-O has finally met somebody who interrupts as much as he does.
Patrice O'Neal said it best "New Steveo disturbs me with his lack of edge."
That dude was angry. I never liked him.
I felt like I was watching the Kevin Smith show.
Being an ex heroin addict I'm still not convinced it's a disease but I guess a person's notion on what a disease is can differ from person to person but generally a direct result of a physical injury.
I was addicted to meth, then pain pills, and eventually methadone. I've been clean going on 15 years now, I've never looked at addiction as a disease either.

@Devon Hæbermän it depends on the person. If someone has had so much pain in there life n there only relief is herion then yes its a disease.
What’s with the low-fi 8-bit glitch music interwoven with the video?
Totally off-topic, but I have a running thing with flamingos and I LOVE Scott's shirt! I'd love to know where he got it 😁🖤.
3:40 best part of the whole vid
Kevin of course is gonna equate a life issue to Batman the Animated Series lol Love you Kevin!
Yes David dobrik is a prime example on how being yourself is way too detrimental.
It’s not an addiction to being yourself, it’s an obsession. Simply put they can be misinterpreted but in an honest way, you are being yourself and avoiding conscious hazards or self grief
Love Stevo
It’s awesome that changes these folks go through when they get really good therapy
Just think how the world would be if everybody got that
Kevin Smith ended up doing the interview here😅
Kevin Smith wont stop interrupting :(
Adderall.
Karma for Steve-O doing it CONSTANTLY. Lol
I couldn’t handle it and had to stop listening. 😮
sex addiction is a process addiction like compulsive gambling.

Being "addicted" to being in the spotlight and having that attention directed to you is a red flag for narcissism.

8:00 he described Chris Farley's collapse. So sad.

It’s wild that Kevin went to a mental health facility months after this podcast just for this problem.
Not sex addiction.
Would love to see steve-o in a Kevin Smith film...or Jay and Bob in a jackass skit

Kevin Smith is such a let down. He was the man back in the day. Now he is the womxn.
"Can being yourself for a living become an addiction"? Yes it can, it's called being an egomaniac, and you are it.
Theres caffein in cacao Steve!
Anyone else got a ticking audio for this video? Paused mine thinking it was my buds but its the video
Kevin Smith's favorite person in the universe is Kevin Smith.
