Early 20's is hard especially for a man. So many doubts, regrets, felling like a loser. Joey Diaz has helped me alot listening to him, cause he's straight to the point. Old School advice is the best advice.
Males are born without value. We only acquire value as we get older and acquire skills and wealth (or at least financial stability) It's a cold reality but... at least that pushes us to reach our full potential and not take life for granted.
Early 20s are the struggle of man. It's a paradox. It's the greatest time of your life but everything is so uncertain and up in the air. Nothing can replicate it. And you'll always wanna look back and look at all the regrets and missed opportunities but that's part of the beauty. Embrace it
Getting out of prison, being homeless and almost offing himself. Anyone feeling really down on them-self cause of crappy times, should read up on Joey Diaz's story. Absolutely Inspiring.
14/12/2015 - The date I tried to commit suicide. I was 28, I’d lost my job, my 4 year relationship ended because of me and I couldn’t take the guilt, shame, or depression any longer. Thankfully I didn’t die, I’m so glad I didn’t as my life is so much better now. Suicide is a permanent negative solution to a temporary problem. Hold on, seek help, things will get better.
Don't ever feel like that!! You cant have good times forever. Life is about enjoying the good times but knowing and mentally being prepared for the bad times. Life is like a box of chocolates no joke.. you get good things and shit ones. I have survived war, friend killing himself, loosing job, loosing partner who cheated on me, getting my house and parents house flood twice!! And guess what it was all hard times..but it passes and you become a more evolved as a person.. cause your stronger mentally, then you just look at ppl that complain about simple things and laugh
Joey has to be one of the most authentic guys out there in the entertainment world. It really hit's me in the heart to hear and see him admit these kinds of things but it's also so inspiring because of where he ended up. God bless ya, Joey.
I’ve been going through my dark age for the past 5 years since my dad passed when I was 21. It forced me to really reflect but I didn’t like what I saw. And I haven’t liked who I am the past 5 years. Feels like little by little, I been losing a piece of myself from my childhood but i think the most important thing to remember is we all go through this. Some can take the punches, some need therapy(coach) to help guide them through their shit, and some respectfully bow out and throw in the towel. Who do you wanna be? That’s what it comes down to. Love y’all man stay up!! No shame in any option except the latter. You guys got this. We all got this. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. And remember you’re a tough motherfucker.
I’m 28 years old that just got passed the dark age of my 20’s. It felt like I was the only one going through a quarter life crisis. My friends couldn’t understand what I was going through. I for one didn’t understand it at first. I tried to run from it, that blew up in my face 3 years back. So just this year, I decided to face my self cause the problem wasn’t the world around me, it was how I perceived every little shit I see. Yeah sounds cliche but I’m doing good. One thing that helped me a lot is shrooms. Although, it’s not an instant change. Had to endure a long fight within me. Crazy but I would say, it made me stronger.
I found out my dad was a pedophile recently and I’m a huge fuck up. I think my life is hell but you make me feel like someone can relate to me thanks joey
"Now that's all funny on the way up the stairs and shit, but when you come down and you're in that rocket ship and it's 5 in the morning and it's 22 below zero". You can hear the pain in his voice, even with the words that follow this quote. Joey Diaz has experienced life; the real lows that life can throw at you. A fascinating guy that now emits nothing but joy into people's life after dancing with the devil. I return to this when I'm struggling to put things into perspective. Life is hard, but don't give up.
You're not alone uncle Joey. I'm 50 and I'm still going through it. I don't even drink anymore but man I feel beat down a lot. My life has been little given and a lot taken away.
I have to convince myself every single day every single morning not to end my life. Depression and anxieties got such a firm grip on me and my spouse doesn't provide any positive support. Having no positive support at home plus being depressed plus having a job that requires me to be armed everyday and by that I mean a Glock 19 on my side. I struggle with it everyday and I'm finally making some changes in my life that are hopefully going to be promoting positive mental health. But currently and for a little while I've had to convince myself every morning not to want to commit suicide. When Joey is talking about is no joke.
SinisterMinister hey I don't know you but its OK just take it one day at a time.you are not alone.lately ive been feeling like taking my gun and just ending it all.some days are harder than others.
Went through hell man myself lost my mother quickly through cancer wanted to kill myself many times but my kids kept me going I couldnt do it to them bro now I'm on top.of the game again but I know deep down it's them fuckin demons that will be there whenever I hit the bottom again .. exercise is the key
Without going into details I was really bad and I started watching the church and it helped me so much. With support from my family I'm now 80% less depressed than I was 8 months ago.
I think this shows how depression doesn’t make sense if you’ve never experienced it. Doesn’t have a cause a reason, everything is going well on the outside, but inside it’s just collapsing.
Grandpa, dad and little brother all went out that way, you never know what somebody has going on in the background. Whatever gets you through it, yall. Uncle Joey helps
I was homeless for a while and this podcast gave me so many flashbacks.. one of them being my first night in shared accommodation, so a bed… man felt so safe and secure
I have just lost a close friend off mine to suicide 5 days ago this clips hitting me hard. Rest in peace to everyone who was so low they had to check out. Devastating
This just gave me hope that anything is possible ... I just found an element of strength within listening to this. Unkle Joey is the Unkle we all need x
Im 16 and i have no friends. I dont mean few, i have none. School stresses me out because im constantly thinking about how im coming across towards my peers. I feel invicible and disposable. I dont want to die, but during some bad days I do think about it. I dont want to hurt my family, but i just struggle to keep on living everyday when there are really very few things that give my life meaning. I am greatful for my dog. I remember during last new years when i was all alone in my living room expect for my dog. The clock struck 00:00 and i just started praying. Im not really religious but i remember sitting on my couch with my dog on my lap and just praying. I asked god to make me go through whatever it has to take to become happier. Ill be okay i hope.
Hey I am sorry about what your going. And trust high school sucks big time, but I promise high school won’t be forever. I promise you will meet cooler people after you leave and one day you will look back and tell yourself how glad you are that you were a loner.
Hope you're well for w.e. it's worth most of us go through it, always remember you have the internet to help you all kinds of helpful information use that power to your benefit, learn all the stuff about self improvement and learn about your self and your issues. Use your strengths to build momentum and always think of ways to build yourself up, hang in there you got a lot of yrs to experience awesome things. Life is hard there's not other way around that.
Remember what the stoics said; "you have power over your mind- not outside events" dont worry on things that are not within your control. Read some Marcus Aurelius, everything will he fine.
People love your stories but can't fathom living it. For the ones who have and made it out, love you. Everyone, please stay strong and take your life lessons with you and rise above. 👍
Personally I miss his church podcast, I would always listen at night for some reason, Joeys an after hours guy haha. But I love his strength, I’m not a strong guy like him, but he always has an approach to adversity which always admire in him, he’s a great guy.
Been going through hell myself for the last 5 months. Going through a 4 relationship breakup. Healing is so damn hard. Some days you feel like you’re doing great and some days you just don’t want to leave your bed. If anybody is going through something similar, trust the process! This will make us better people for the future. Keep it moving! A female is supposed to add to your happiness and not be your only source of happiness. Lesson learned.
If you’re actually a real pos or just going through a real ass tough time you just want to be understood or related to bc help is long out of sight. And Joey is that guy who makes you just feel safer around yourself or in the world. Joey is a good guy now but I’m sure he knows and can sadly relate to anyone who feels like they going through a tough time or that they’re just a pos lol I never know what makes someone want to just ice themself like he said but I felt that pain before. I’ve broken bones, been sick in a hospital bed for weeks, I been in deep trouble, been back stabbed and thrown under the bus and yet feeling like wanting to leave is the most painful pain I have felt
Thank you Uncle Joey. Thank you Joe Rogan Life has hit me like a freight train recently. Listening to Joey. He has always said not to give up and tomorrow is another day and be thankful for the day that you have right now. That resonated within my soul. The fact that Joey has been through a lot and he changed his life around has really given me. Hope I cried when talking to my best friend about my situation in my life. And cried even more when I told him about Joey Diaz and how much he's done for me without even knowing it. As men we need to be vulnerable. We need to hug our brothers. We need to let our family know what we're going through. We need to stop internalizing things. That's what I've been doing. Pretty much all my life and I trapped myself in a mental prison. Now I'm learning to be vulnerable with people, even strangers and I'm getting a lot of wisdom and guidance from it. I hope this helps someone that's going through something as well. And I also at the end of the day you're not alone. Whether you believe in God or a spiritual entity, they're there with you.
A week after my 17th birthday I was homeless. At one point I was renting a room off some lady on Craigslist, until I was able to rent an apt. Luckily I never had severe depression but I was sad at times. My way of getting through it was crying and taking out all my anger in one moment although I told myself I could only do that once.A little over 2 years have passed and things are great. I have a savings , I have a nice car paid off, a beautiful dog, good credit , a roof over my head, and I can eat whenever I want. Life is beautiful and it can get better. You need to take initiative, keep educating yourself, do things in favor of your mental health (don’t welcome things that can tarnish your well being and push out those things that do negatively effect you.) Stay strong and keep pushing, I’m rooting for the ones that are going through tough times.
Joey Diaz is so funny it’s always a great podcast when he’s on Joe Rogan his life stories are great and the way he tells them man I can’t breathe sometimes I’m laughing so hard 👍👍👍👍💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤯😱😳🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
he told that story because that's what gets people not to ice themselves sometimes. we all need love, when all you do is try to make people happy you become your biggest enemy. just be kind to people, you don't know who might need it.
I messaged Joey at the start of the pandemic, was alone and no job, he replied and it kept me going, just nice to get a response and for him to do that.
Been going through the shittest part of my life since 16, im 31 now n thimgs just seem to never want to get better, its so hard not to give up but i really dont know what else to do, i have no choice, no job no money no house no nothing, life really just dnt seem worth it to me anymore
some people don’t understand how they push competition for hard times. Some people are mentally not right at a time and others will say “WHAT ARE YOU SAD ABOUT THERES PEOPLE THAT ARE WORSE OFF THSN YOU” and that makes nothing better
Before Chester Bennington passed away, Linkin Park made a really depressing but also great song "Heavy." I think Chester wrote it. He was clearly suffering and that's just so sad.
Speaking as a guy, i think many of us do that all the time. When it comes to serious negativity, you gotta start becoming conscious of your thoughts and realize that there is a loving God, Universe, The One, whatever you call it that always gives us signs and is pushing us to be the best we can be. Listen brotha, we dont exist for shits and giggles we have a fuckin purpose im a dumb fuck and i know that
There's just something about Joey's voice, even before I hear all these stories. he just captivates me, it like our souls are just sitting on some plastic chairs at a cookout sipping some beers and just talking. he has that calming effect that just makes you feel what he's saying, man. I don't know what it is bro its fucking crazy. i don't know the dude, but its like I've known him my whole life
Just got a shot at my dream job and I was over the moon about it, at first. As soon as the realization of the good news wore off, I felt panic with all these negative thoughts started running through my brain. What if I blow it ?What about my current job ? Should I quit or take up part time ? Will I be able to manage both ? What about my social life ? Is it even worth it ? Is my mind going to melt... and then silence. I got everything I wished for, I should be happy right ? Life id a trip man, don't be a fool like me, learn to appreciate and cherish the fun and the hard times. Take it one day at a time and always give your all.
I am the same way! I learned to look at it in a positive perspective. If you were happy everyday about getting this job, you’re going to miss out on the important things like getting better at your position and stuff like that. You worrying about your performance is your brain telling you that getting this position is only the beginning so don’t think this is some type of happy ending. Your brain is your best friend. Keep grinding. I am a manager and have hired people who stopped giving two shits once they got the job and started making $20 an hour. However their work ethic bit then in the ass because of becoming too comfortable and not wanting to excel in their position. As much as we would love a break. This game of life is all about the challenge and grinding. Take your worries as a good thing!
@@jc4669 complacency, the biggest enemy of progress and the number one cause of wasted talent. I have friends like that, expect things to fall into place by themself and when the opportunity presents itself they don't capitalize on it. Like you said, you have to be proactive in everything in order to succeed, but most people don't want to do some critical thinking. I may be an overthinker but, when it's game time I get the job done even if I slept for 4-5 hours only. I cut a lot of people off just because they irresponisble thinking others got successful by chance. I developed a hatred for those traits, I may love the person but I can't have them around me.
@@MrJuhs91 3 months later and I'm doing just fine. There is a thin line between being pro active and torturing yourself, and I'm trying to be on the side of the former.
@@semird615 yea surely. I dont believe in grinding, as in grinding like toturing yourself. If u are doing things u love, u cant do nothing but grind. Like u are bound to what u do, becouse u love it. Thats where the succes is, grinding only for money is not what i will call succes, only if u can get out, and be happy. Succes is not (only) about money. What ever just my opinion... Some times we have to shovel shit tho.
discolissa666 yeah some people are abused by the same people who claim to love them. It's not that simple to just say cheer up and dont let it bother you. My brother and grampa both killed themselves.
Co worker didn’t show up to work the other day. Hanged him self in his garage. I haven’t been working there long only 3 months and didn’t see this guy much there, but he seemed like a nice guy. Never sulking around or complaining or anything. Nice and calm too. No warning. Family member found him. Someone would have to be deeply troubled by something to do that to themselves. He got paid well, had a family, and got along with guys at work. I can only imagine something traumatic must have happened to him recently.
i was just dumped by the love of my life completely out of the blue and we had a great life together a dog, what i thought was the perfect relationship and she guided me and comforted my soul, felt like home. We talked about marriage and i cant sleep because of the anxiety i can barely breathe. but knowing theres people like joey that have been through worse and come out the other side and hearing him talk and laugh and cry here gives me hope.
colby bruno dude, thx for existing, who woulda thought a comment would help so much.
Keep the dog
I hope you're okay, man.
Hope your doing good brother 🙂

Early 20's is hard especially for a man. So many doubts, regrets, felling like a loser. Joey Diaz has helped me alot listening to him, cause he's straight to the point. Old School advice is the best advice.
You ain’t lyin 😂🤦🏾♂️
Yeah well there's a reason something like 80% of all successful suicides are men. It's actually gotten worse in the last few years
Males are born without value. We only acquire value as we get older and acquire skills and wealth (or at least financial stability)
It's a cold reality but... at least that pushes us to reach our full potential and not take life for granted.
Well said most 30 year Olds are better for messing up so much. Most have a kid in high-school now so the hustle needed to happen asap
Early 20s are the struggle of man. It's a paradox. It's the greatest time of your life but everything is so uncertain and up in the air. Nothing can replicate it. And you'll always wanna look back and look at all the regrets and missed opportunities but that's part of the beauty. Embrace it

And I also at the end of the day you're not alone. Whether you believe in God or a spiritual entity, they're there with you.
Hope the best for you dawg
@@abdihassan7208 Ty you brother ❤️
Why does joe just laugh at joey hes talking some real heat
That bothered me as well… all I’m thinking is why’s he laughing?
discomfort laugh perhaps
A week after my 17th birthday I was homeless. At one point I was renting a room off some lady on Craigslist, until I was able to rent an apt. Luckily I never had severe depression but I was sad at times. My way of getting through it was crying and taking out all my anger in one moment although I told myself I could only do that once.A little over 2 years have passed and things are great. I have a savings , I have a nice car paid off, a beautiful dog, good credit , a roof over my head, and I can eat whenever I want. Life is beautiful and it can get better. You need to take initiative, keep educating yourself, do things in favor of your mental health (don’t welcome things that can tarnish your well being and push out those things that do negatively effect you.) Stay strong and keep pushing, I’m rooting for the ones that are going through tough times.
Awesome brother, everyone is rooting for you
@@mikeybroyo6230 thanks, rooting for you too brother.
Tough times make strong men.
That was weird I went from thinking about being depressed to laughter great story Joey
I love that in the middle of this deep talk about mental health Joey Diaz just tells the funniest story you’ll ever hear
Everything gets better. Always.
Lol easy to say
It actually does
But it requires a lot of sacrifices and compromises
Im so happy i found this story tonight joey is a gem 💎
I could listen to Uncle Joey stories all day
Joey Diaz is so funny it’s always a great podcast when he’s on Joe Rogan his life stories are great and the way he tells them man I can’t breathe sometimes I’m laughing so hard 👍👍👍👍💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤯😱😳🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
needed to hear this today
If he didn’t go through all this, he wouldn’t have his stories. If he didn’t have his stories, he wouldn’t be the legend we all love.
That's the thing. All that shit we've been through made us who we are today. So in a way we shouldn't be wishing it happened differently.
@@VintageFlowers in Greece we say: “ Without storms there is no Odyssey.” I hope you understand the meaning of it.
@@pitoblogg Yeah I can definitely understand and that's a great saying!
Poor guy went through a lot of pain.
he told that story because that's what gets people not to ice themselves sometimes. we all need love, when all you do is try to make people happy you become your biggest enemy. just be kind to people, you don't know who might need it.
I messaged Joey at the start of the pandemic, was alone and no job, he replied and it kept me going, just nice to get a response and for him to do that.
i needed this more then ever, if only you knew how much this helps some people relate
Hope you're doing better bud. Just keep smiling and looking for the beauty, things will change.
@@alcoffin4731 i actually am doing pretty good now. pretty wild for me looking at my comment a year later. thanks man!
Melaria medication gives you nightmares you remember the rest of your life
Connor Boone holy shit that’s true
Been going through the shittest part of my life since 16, im 31 now n thimgs just seem to never want to get better, its so hard not to give up but i really dont know what else to do, i have no choice, no job no money no house no nothing, life really just dnt seem worth it to me anymore
Yea ur profile pic explains all that
some people don’t understand how they push competition for hard times. Some people are mentally not right at a time and others will say “WHAT ARE YOU SAD ABOUT THERES PEOPLE THAT ARE WORSE OFF THSN YOU” and that makes nothing better
I love you Joey. Keep it real always.
Joey D is the best. I love that man.
How can you not love Uncle Joey!!!!
Train by day joe rogan podcast by night! All day!!! Uncle Joey is an epic guest!!!! Love you Joey!
I love this bloke.
Never leave us uncle joey.
Glad I listened to this before bed, excited for the dreams
I'm happy Diaz shared his shit in a box story with us all.
Joey Diaz is a genuine dude
Tough times don’t last tough people do
I loved how he went from sad to happy and shitting in people's drawers😂😂😂
Uncle Joey has the best stories
Joey should be Joes every day side kick on the show
Before Chester Bennington passed away, Linkin Park made a really depressing but also great song "Heavy." I think Chester wrote it. He was clearly suffering and that's just so sad.
Their whole discography was full of that stuff. Helps a lot of people but obviously must suck for the people making it.
@@zk3212 like In Pieces or Runaway
Always Count your blessings
Just soldier on.
Been homeless on and off 4 times.
Fucking life changing shit.
Just soldier on.
“No one can do me in before I do myself”-Chris Cornell..
THIS NEEDS TO BE ANIMATED
You ever just say you're okay when you're seriously not?
Speaking as a guy, i think many of us do that all the time. When it comes to serious negativity, you gotta start becoming conscious of your thoughts and realize that there is a loving God, Universe, The One, whatever you call it that always gives us signs and is pushing us to be the best we can be. Listen brotha, we dont exist for shits and giggles we have a fuckin purpose im a dumb fuck and i know that
Always
I must not let anybody know about my pain
I come to Joey when it comes to my own trauma love you Uncle Joey
Joe sometimes laughs at the wrong times
I felt the same way about Robin Williams.
Only celebrity that made me almost cry.
puts things in perspective, thank you.
There's just something about Joey's voice, even before I hear all these stories. he just captivates me, it like our souls are just sitting on some plastic chairs at a cookout sipping some beers and just talking. he has that calming effect that just makes you feel what he's saying, man. I don't know what it is bro its fucking crazy. i don't know the dude, but its like I've known him my whole life
Joe rogan. The man. Joey diaz. The man. Thankyou both. Real men. Thankyou.
Joe laughs at Joey’s tragic moments then derails the convo when Bourdain comes up.
Going thru it right now with my sons mother, she wants to leave and take him. I really needed this video and this laugh. Thanks uncle Joey.
Joey is amazing story teller !!!
Thank you for sharing this with us Joey!
Just got a shot at my dream job and I was over the moon about it, at first. As soon as the realization of the good news wore off, I felt panic with all these negative thoughts started running through my brain. What if I blow it ?What about my current job ? Should I quit or take up part time ? Will I be able to manage both ? What about my social life ? Is it even worth it ? Is my mind going to melt... and then silence. I got everything I wished for, I should be happy right ? Life id a trip man, don't be a fool like me, learn to appreciate and cherish the fun and the hard times. Take it one day at a time and always give your all.
I am the same way! I learned to look at it in a positive perspective. If you were happy everyday about getting this job, you’re going to miss out on the important things like getting better at your position and stuff like that. You worrying about your performance is your brain telling you that getting this position is only the beginning so don’t think this is some type of happy ending. Your brain is your best friend. Keep grinding. I am a manager and have hired people who stopped giving two shits once they got the job and started making $20 an hour. However their work ethic bit then in the ass because of becoming too comfortable and not wanting to excel in their position. As much as we would love a break. This game of life is all about the challenge and grinding. Take your worries as a good thing!
@@jc4669 complacency, the biggest enemy of progress and the number one cause of wasted talent. I have friends like that, expect things to fall into place by themself and when the opportunity presents itself they don't capitalize on it. Like you said, you have to be proactive in everything in order to succeed, but most people don't want to do some critical thinking. I may be an overthinker but, when it's game time I get the job done even if I slept for 4-5 hours only. I cut a lot of people off just because they irresponisble thinking others got successful by chance. I developed a hatred for those traits, I may love the person but I can't have them around me.
Try to learn to trust the universe. Hear "the story of the chinese farmer". Learn stoicism and be thankfull. Good luck
@@MrJuhs91 3 months later and I'm doing just fine. There is a thin line between being pro active and torturing yourself, and I'm trying to be on the side of the former.
@@semird615 yea surely. I dont believe in grinding, as in grinding like toturing yourself. If u are doing things u love, u cant do nothing but grind. Like u are bound to what u do, becouse u love it. Thats where the succes is, grinding only for money is not what i will call succes, only if u can get out, and be happy. Succes is not (only) about money. What ever just my opinion... Some times we have to shovel shit tho.
Love this guy! Love you Joey!!!
When I found out there was Joey D podcast, my Rogan consumption dropped off dramatically! Love you Coco!!!!!!!
Rocket Ship@5am is ok...5pm, now thats a problem

I wish Joey Diaz offered 1 on 1 consultation he gets life!
This went from a serious issue to the funniest story nice way to end it
If you want to die, think of everyone who will miss you. You are loved, you do matter.
@Nik3 Those who have no one have God.
@@selfexpression805 So, no one then.
@Nik3 Then you have yourself.
discolissa666 yeah some people are abused by the same people who claim to love them. It's not that simple to just say cheer up and dont let it bother you. My brother and grampa both killed themselves.
what if you are alone? You've actually depressed me with that shit.
Sick
Co worker didn’t show up to work the other day. Hanged him self in his garage. I haven’t been working there long only 3 months and didn’t see this guy much there, but he seemed like a nice guy. Never sulking around or complaining or anything. Nice and calm too. No warning. Family member found him. Someone would have to be deeply troubled by something to do that to themselves. He got paid well, had a family, and got along with guys at work. I can only imagine something traumatic must have happened to him recently.
