Brandon Novak: The Journey to Recovery
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 พ.ค. 2023
- We were psyched to film such an inspiring event featuring professional skateboarder and motivational speaker, Brandon Novak, at Bright Future Recovery Avila Heights.
Brandon shares his personal journey of addiction and recovery, including his time as a cast member of the popular TV show Jackass (with stars like Johnny Knoxville and Bam Margera) and his ongoing struggles with substance abuse and alcoholism. Brandon's story is one of hope and perseverance, as he has now been sober for 8 years and travels around to different addiction treatment centers to share his story. We are SO grateful for Bright Future Recovery, and their CEO Cheree Ashley, who designed an amazing event to inspire those in addiction recovery and encourage them to stay on the path of sobriety.
This event inspired the two of us to the max, and reminded us why we really do this work.
A huge thanks to Bright Future Recovery: Avila Heights for hosting, to Cheree for creating the event, and to Brandon for his authentic and amazing story of recovery.
Let us know in the comments below what you think!

I've never once in my life seen Novak be so eloquent. I'm really impressed and inspired by him right now.
Right!? It was SO GOOD
He painted a very colorful (and scary) picture of his downfall and recovery. Very inspiring.
I'm 3 years sober now and I'm proud of myself
3 years sober ❤🥇
I have 28 days today 🙏🏼
So proud of you brother ☝️
❤🙏28 days 🥇
Shoutout to the sober gang. Yesterday i celebrated my 10yr of sobriety n damn what a wonderful n prideful moment. Its nice to stand n say i did that. I worked it n i won🎉
Amazing accomplishment my friend, VERY well done!!!! 10 years is an incredible milestone, congratulations🙏
congrats ❤
Mad props I hope to one day say that but sadly I'm still doing fentanyl but I'm weening down to make detox easier hopefully I will get off it and stay clean this time
Lightweight.
I live in Baltimore city. Mercy is the only hospital I deal with.
“I wanna kill my self but, don’t wanna hurt myself in the process.”
That hit!
Hits hard!!!
You are not alone but I think we can beat this despite the numbers. In fact, I would bet.
@@shaun8062 agreed 100%
💯
"Insanity or death" struck me to my core. I was always insane, or planing to off myself when I didn't drink, or do substances. I didn't know it was alcoholism until years later.
Where all all the grateful recovering addicts?!? This is brilliant. I’m moved and blessed to hear this! Thank you!
You’re so welcome Michael! Thanks for being here man it really means a lot, I hope you enjoy our other stuff too!
I'm not recovering I'm drunk right now
@@imadrunk3576but you're still here bro. I was you a few months ago.
There are layers and depths to this man I never imagined. What an incredible story
Beautiful. I used to think this guy was a JOKE on viva la bam! Now I fight back tears hearing his truth. I've got 10 years myself I'm proud to be on the same team. Truly inspiring breathtakingly beautiful story. Thank you Brandon Novak!
I never watched Viva, was he a douche or what?
I’m 16 Brandon connected with me and helped me through the past couple weeks big props 🙏
Dude that’s awesome, keep up the good work brother 🫡
Now thats the stuff that defines a great man, he found it and now he wants to give it to others.
❤
Nice dude!
@@RehabRoadTripsi need help. Its life or death. My closest brother for so long is gonna end up being a lifer. I have no choice but to stop enabling him. Brandon he has alot of same things you have gone through. 15 times in rehab. He has lost it all. His dad is about to die and i dont know whats gonna happen. For the last 4 years ive been letting him live here and been trying too hard to help him and its hurting me. Plz. Brandon. How do i reach you. Btw im 11 years clean myself next month on the 27th.
Brandon is my cousin's sponsor. Great man to rely on. From the worst to the most successful overnight. God bless you man
Dude that’s awesome!!
It's never over night
"I'm terrible at suicide I keep waking up."
I definitely understand that. So grateful for Brandon Novak's journey. Saw this originally last fall. Coming up on 9 months off narcotics. Grateful!
Great work! 9 months is HUGE! Keep it goin we do recover!
Ayy same 9 month gang!
That isn't his words. 90 percent of his buzz words are straight from the NA cult. Haha.
Edit: he even responded with a cult answer. We do recover. We do recover. We do recover. Jails institutions and death. We do recover. Jails. We. Institutions. Do. Death. Recover.
So brave. Haha.
I can honestly say dude definitely cares. Got nothing but respect for him.
That was our experience as well!
Novak is the only person I want to hear talk about addiction and recovery
I been sober almost 5 years and I owe So much of my sobriety to Brandon. He kept in touch with me for years after. Meant the world to me❤️💪🏼🙏🏼💯
I'm a Baker! Keep on power on brother
Congrats on your sobriety, Zachary! 5 years is one hell of a milestone!
I have almost 4 years sober from opioid pills and heroin. I’m so glad Novak got his life back and I’m glad I got my life back. Slowly but it’s coming back to me
Then you also owe your addiction to him as well because he didn't do shit to get you on or off dope. Stop glorifying these spoiled Hollywood diptards.
Well done!!! 🎉
Brandon Novaks story is insane, I hope the best for this guy
I've been in recovery since April 1st 2017. Brandon speaks the 100% truth. Im proud of you Brandon. And im proud of myself. It takes 100% determination to stay sober. I never thought id be clean I honestly thought i would die an addict a slave to the drugs
Dude that’s amazing, congrats brother! Keep it going 💪
I’m a addict I’m 54 now and I feel it’s now or never to clean up. I’m using heroin and I’m on methadone. I’m in Australia but thanks for sharing your story man. ❤
The time is now!! Do whatever it takes to leave all the behind man we’re rooting for you!
Took the words outta my mouth. Now is the time ❤
Hope you're well!
@@angelmartinez5524 I’m no worse but can’t seem to move in the right direction
❤🙏
I grew up watching CKY, Bam, Novak, the whole crew. Some of the most cherished memories and times of my life were these years growing up. My life followed a path just like Novaks, started with oxycontin, moved onto heroin and then prison, the thing saved my life. I have been out since 2016 and did not look back, sometimes it seems like a different life I lived before prison. No doubt it hasn't been easy, I have had a couple relapses but one thing Iearned is that, I do not want to live that life anymore. I mess up, I get back up and move on, continuing on the right path. I keep working on myself and bettering my responses to hardships so I don't run to the thing that numbed me for so many years. I am have a connection with Novak and so many others that have gone through the addiction of heroin. Thank you for you words Brandon.
I have 95 days clean today, off fentanyl, everything. Thank you for inspiring me with your story
Honestly I don’t know how I beat it. It was a combination of events that pushed me into it and I’m glad it did in the end. Biggest part was locking myself away at my parents rural home for 2 years and cutting off contact with all the bad people in my life.
Hey man we’re psyched you got out of there!! Addiction is a dark and scary place. Congrats Nick!
Best way ive found to do it.
You separated from everyone you knew and from your environment. I had to do the same just in a different way (went to a rehab center for 10 weeks).
June 16th 2004 Grateful for celebrating 19 years last Friday.... We do recover!!!!!!!
Happy birthday!!! We absolutely do recover!
The stuff he said about JACKASS.....
Is sooo CRAZY because of the other Brandon's (BAM) dilemma!
The series went on without him.
It's so sad and it hurts! But like with SteveÖ and Novak!!!....
You GOTTA WANT IT!!!
We can just hope and pray that Bam comes through the otherside and makes a clean break!
The years if abuse DO catch up to you!!!
Its something I'm learning now, though I was out through a WHOLE new set of circumstances that actually disabled me!
All the hits my body took before I was in a hit and run by a truck!
They're all showing.... and the years that go by will only truly show what I will be battling
Am 21mths sober and am very proud of myself 🙏
I’m 4 months sober. I watched his story in treatment. Huge inspiration ❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations!! We do recover!
I got blood work done a while back and got a phone call the same day saying that I have a fatty liver. So my doctor told me that I needed to go on a low calorie diet and I had to cut out alcohol. I haven't had a drop since April 16th. It's tough and never thought I would be able to do it but I did
Stay strong and God Bless
God bless You 💔❤️🩹❤️🔥
Just got 5 months folks ❤️🤘🏼
Brandon, I’ve watched your testimony many times over the years. All I can say is that you have a gift in the way you tell of your life experiences. You are truly helping people. Much more than you can even realize.
So true!
Yeah but everything he says it's half-truth
Maybe even quarter truth.
@jonsellas Agreed, I'm happy if he really is sober and hope he keeps it. But I get a huge pastor / preacher vibe he's memorized word for word and the day it gets old for him is the day things will get dark again. Again! I hope he's sober until the end and props to him for crawling out of hell.
@yourerightiamright.3709 that's very inspiring 3 days sober headed to my 3 rehab looking forward to that restoration foundation Peace and Serenity. Bound and determined to get it right one more chance. Thank you
I can relate a lot.
I really needed to hear this. I've been struggling pretty badly with staying sober recently and hearing this gives me some hope and comfort.
We are so glad!!🙏🙏
Hey I hope you're doing well.
@TR-IRL Thanks I've been clean for a couple months feeling a lot better.
@@bajorekjonThank God. Keep your eyes and mind on Jesus. 👆🏼🙏♥️
@@BreeFitz Thank you, I really appreciate the kind words. I had my ups and downs, but I've been clean for over 3 months, which is the longest I've been clean for over a decade. If I can do it, you can too, and I know it might sound cliché but it's true.
Thank You B! I am so happy your here. What your doing now is the hardest thing to ever do. Thank You
Powerful message Brandon. One addict to another, much love!
He’s such an inspiration!
Grew up watching my parents drink which killed my mum at age 48 in 2016. I'm 28 now and still reflect on how much an addiction that I myself didnt even have affected my life and shaped my personality. People like Brandon are my heros.
Addiction definitely affects everyone around the addict, it can be the hardest thing to watch. Glad you’re hanging in there and we hope you do big things, you’re a gift!
As someone whos watched jackass since i was 5, its so amazing to see Brandon and Steve in such good health and happiness.
I have a brother whos been lost in the throws of heroin (and almost every other) addiction. Hes seen friends and loved ones die, and turned our lives into a living hell. No matter what we do, we cannot help him. I wish with all of my being that he'll eventually pull out of it.
You two have given me hope that maybe, one day, he will.
Love you man. So glad youre doing well.
No script, straight from the heart.
👏👏👏
My brother has been in active addiction on and off for over 15 years. He is only 32. Brandon resonated with my brother so much with one of his previous videos. He listened to it multiple times.
Now, he is on the run from the cops in the foothills of appealachia in north alabama.
I start every day with the hope that today will be the day he gets tired of running and seeks help. Thank you for sharing 💜
We’re so sorry, the nature of addiction is so painful & difficult. We will hold him in our prayers, and if there’s anything we can do to support you and/or getting him into treatment, shoot us a DM on instagram @rehabroadtrips. Hang in there friend 🫶
@RehabRoadTrips thank you so much, the offer is greatly appreciated 💜
Seeing this guy go from 0-100 is amazing
Powerful. Brandon, I just want to say as a recovering addict myself (I’ve been quitting for several years now, and it’s been a process), I draw inspiration from recovering addicts such as yourself. I’ll get there, and I appreciate you, brother.
Brandon You changed my life. Decade of opiates, then using amphetamine to help quit drinking and now i am struggling but listening to this and priors got me motivated to wanna live.
Keep going man, you’re worth it! DM us if you need any support 💪
Show this everywhere to everyone!!!!!... this message is NEEDED tremendously! Brandon you have always been an inspiration to me , youlll never know how much or why,,, just know that you helped this recoverING addict... God bless always , much love and respect to all those struggling-----> NEVER EVER, for ANY reason give up before the miracle happens..BC it will.!! 🕯Love,from NY.
Awesome thanks Liz!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I don’t don’t know what to do with 🎉❤❤❤❤❤
Some people get sick and tired of being sick and tired, the other's just check out. Glad to see Brandon wised up and decided to help other's, if they're willing to help themselves.
Came by this video by accident. Glad I did.
Off pills 7 and half years now. I was homeless, broke, very close to suicide. I met my wife..she never done drugs. I was high when I first met her. I fell in love and came clean to her about my addiction. From there I got clean, went to college and now I'm in test pilot school. I already have my commercial pilot certification and part time job as a charter pilot paying my way threw school. I have a life I never dreamed I could ever have. Money thought I could never attain. I thank God everyday he hept me from not getting a felony or over dose to death. It's possible. It's hard. But Im willing to battle every day, against my addiction to protect my life and loosing everything we have together today. I want it more than the high now.
I received the gift of desperation 8/12/2012 and am grateful to be working in a recovery center to share my truth-- your sharing of your TRUTH was straightforward and on point , I am really happy I found this to listen to - you helped me today by reminding my of what I gotta do to stay clean and sober - god bless ODAAT
That’s amazing, congrats!
3days clean from meth and coke.
This shit needs to end immediately.
Who ever is going through it, you’re not alone!!
I am so happy that this gentleman has continued his sobriety. Its inspirational for someone who is in the dark!! Good on you my brother and God bless 🙌 🙏🏽 i have been sober from alcohol since july of 2011 and i enjoy every single day minute second of my life!!
Isn't life much better I'm 6yrs SOBER (4-21-2017) from drinking myself COLD TURKEY &
NO MEETINGS
What scared me was I kept on getting Bloody Noses & i went & saw this doctor where he had to freeze my nose to stop my nose from bleeding it took 15mins or longer to stop the bleeding
& that doctor told me I never would to see u again & never went back.
2 weeks later went to my Local Bar about 10 people around me were doing shot after shot didn't phase me one bit. I have alot of WILL POWER.
Still going strong
@chrisballmes4914 thank you for sharing and congratulations on your continued sobriety
My best friend overdosed and died 2 years ago, tomorrow would be his 47th birthday. In 6 days I will be sober for 6 months. I don't know why I watched this tonight but thanks for sharing Novak.
❤
5 days sober from alcohol and I absolutely loved hearing ur story wish I cud visit ur treatment center but I live in Wisconsin and my severe anxiety disorder makes impossible for me to travel out of my city
Im Pauline & im an addict & After 30 years addiction at 44 years old, i was given that gift of desperation, i was on crack, heroin and scotlands street valium and on a methadone prescription for 16+ years of 160mls daily.. iv managed to put down all the drugs while just doing Narcotics Anonymous meetings in my own home, no rehab, that gift called desperation made me willing to go to ANY LENGTHS for my recovery, im super grateful what Narcotics Anonymous has given my familyand myself, i came back to N.A and for the first time and beaten to the point i was ready to say “i know nothing, please teach me”. Love you Brandon and love your share & i wish you many many many more years of sobriety and living clean my boy.. Xx
Aiming to get clean have an appointment set up for the local rehab. I cant wait to see the changes God has waiting for me
I love showing Brandon’s talk to my clients as a D&A counselor. They always enjoy hearing it.
I showed it to my clients this evening during group. Everyone could relate to his story and like the fact that he was real.
We love that, feel free to show this talk!! all the clients in the room for this one were so engaged and inspired. Amazing!
Watched this in rehab and related to it in such a way that it helped save my life thank you Brandon from the bottom of my heart

He’s such a beast and makes such an impact on me. Almost two years clean 🎉 thank you for sharing your story. ❤
Helping me with my journey of staying sober.every day a victory ❤
Thanks brother,for your story,I'm 70+days sober.heard u when I was 8-9days in recovery,tail end detoxing, with expectations of the same results of using, shortly after I could walk out of treatment/detox. Your story is so close to mine,so it really hit home! Thanks for motivating me to do the right thing brother! Love ya, with utmost respect&god bless.~mik~
I’ve been clean for about 15 days straight and I saw Brandon’s recovery video about 3-4 years ago in rehab and I just remembered how impactful he was then so I’m rewatching it again today and I’m still clean now and I just wanted to thank you for your help.❤
Hope you’re good bro, keep
It up
Your talks always bring me to tears you helped me through 2yrs of my 8yrs of being clean ..thank you
One of the best testimonials
I use to go out every weekend but when I found out that I have a fatty liver I had to stop drinking and I'm glad I did. I had a problem a very serious problem if I would've kept going I would be dead before I reached 40. Haven't had a drink since April 16th of this year I haven't felt better. In a way I'm glad it happened it was a wake up call for me to loose weight and stop drinking best decision I ever made.
Clay that’s freakin awesome man, sometimes that wake up call is all it takes!
@@RehabRoadTrips you ain't kidding dude. Saved my life is what it did
March 21, 2015 for me brother. But for the Grace of God ❤ 🙏
Great story. Thank you for sharing ❤
Congratulations!! Keep it up we do recover!
Ive had a relapse two days ago from over 5 months. This is my first day. Ill try to do and live program with best of my ability and serve more. But i must say, the reason im sober today, has something to do with Brandon. I connect with him even i havent met him.
This is truly amazing, and so artfully spoken. I’m sure you are helping many people out there.
Brandon, this really touched me. Ive rooted for you ever since the early CKY video days, i am so happy to see that you have found sobriety and you are thriving. Love ya Brother!!
Please pray for my son Geno. He is fighting a fentanyl addiction. I am terrified of losing him. He has been to 2 rehabs and has basically given up. Please pray for my son
Brandon is incredible. I’m not even an addict and his story has impacted me so much. Such a cool guy
what a fucking BOSS. Takes a real man to be honest with himself.
We just watched this today at Harbor Light's Rehad in Grand Rapids, MI (we get our phones here), and it impacted all of us a lot. Thank you for your brutal, honesty. We all appreciated it a lot.
Awesome dude that’s great!! We’re glad Novak landed well w you all. He’s the man🙌
I'm 52 and on suboxone, wishing I was totally clean, yet being totally clean terrifies me.. Thanks for sharing Brendan ❤
Recovery takes on many shapes and sizes man. It’s a good day if you didn’t use, and sometimes subs are essential to get us there. You’re still crushing it! Getting off subs is a great goal, and with the right support it’s possible!
Great job on getting the help. Keep up the great work. I am proud of you.
Wow. Thank you so much for sharing
yo brandon novak thank you for sharing your story with all of us i can relate to 90% of your story have a blessed day my guy!
Right on dude!
wooow kakva biografija i minato,retkost e da se cujat vakvi storii od prva raka,bravo !!! Mnogu uspeh i sreka ti pozeluvam vo ponatamosnata rabota i sekako zivotot da ti ostane ispolnet so zdravje,radost i sreka !!! Odlicna motivacija,pozdrav golem i sekoe dobro ti posakuvam...
Love this story, I’m sorry what you had to go through to live it but I always remember what you said about allowing our sobriety to come anything less than first. I kept your number but never needed to call it, Thanx Novak, you helped me get to three years sober.❤❤❤
read dreamseller a long time ago and always wondered what happened to him. so glad to see he's sober.
I really enjoy listening to your story. I can't wait to get your books. You are slightly poetic when you speak. I too am in recovery, but from cocaine and alcohol. Just over 8 years & 4 months i have in recovery, this is my 3rd time around.
I'm grateful I was finally able to open my ears, heart and mind to the ones before me in NA and AA.
Upwards and onwards 💞😁
I relapsed after 2 years clean on fentanyl. Feeling humbled and it sucks it happened but I learn every time I fail and I never will give up trying! I have 17 days clean
I used to not like you, Novak. Now you’re an inspiration. Keep up the good fight, sir.
Im from Pennsylvania like Novak grew up watching him and Bam on TV. Im about to try to receive help for my addiction soon waiting for a call back. God bless you Novak.
love you brandon, thankyou for sharing your journey. it's a great help. i'll get there one day and your words offer a great compass I appreciate more then i can share. love and praises be with you
We wish you the best of luck on your journey, reach out if we can support you in any way!
I grew up with you, jackass wildboyz the castle bam days. Man thank you for sharing this makes me feel like anything is possible. Thanks for continuing to be a great roll model in my life and now in my own sobriety ❤
LOVE your passion homie! Baltimore ex addict here and i gotta say your in your perfect lane bro! Mad respect and look up to you dude. I only overdosed once and like a addict i continued! It took pics from my gf when i was using that embarrassed me enough to quit! My 20th run of soberville but this time the longest its a fight every day
Brandon i just wanna let you know that you've become a great inspiration to many my friend myself included, i just hit 5 years sober from alcohol and percocets on December 27th 2023, it was a bad ending that my POS self cant even remember because i was so blacked out from percs and drinking, but when my wife told me the next morning as i awoke from a drunken stuper what had happened and the things i did and could have done to hurt both of us, i could see in her eyes how scared she still was from the situation, i realized at that moment that i was DONE with it, I love my wife and i promised her as she cried to me that i would never drink or take percs again, now dont get me wrong i didnt beat my wife, or lay my hands on her i would never purposely hurt my wife thats not the case at all, but that doesn't excuse what did happen and the fact that i COULD HAVE gotten her hurt or worse.. Now, theres not alot that i have to be proud of myself for in life, but this is one thing i am proud of and that i often tell folks about. Quite honestly though this past year has been rough, ive been very close a few times to cracking a bottle, but i haven't and its a struggle almost everyday between stress at work and struggling financially it gets really hard not to visit the liquor store. Please keep making these videos because your are definitely reaching people man, they definitely help, Thank you, Brandon!
Thanks for sharing your story with us.
It’s our privilege!! Thanks for watching 🎉
I watch Brandon’s videos all the time and in my darkest places they helped me I didn’t always do stop but I always did better in some aspect
This really helped me out, thanks for sharing the video 🙏
Oh my. Never in my life have I stayed glued to the screen than listening to Brandon talk. I knew some of his history, it went pretty dark for a while. But to say I’m happy he’s doing so well, is the understatement of the year. Happy and proud. I’ve stared at addiction, both in the mirror and in the eyes of loved ones. Every word he says is true. No one but yourself and your higher power, whom ever it might be, can make the change. I can not thank you enough for this video. Stay strong every one, one day at a time.
Bless you Brandon! Thank you for sharing your story! Keep on living brother ❤
Amen! You do the same!
God Bless Brandon and the recovering right now
Brandon’s transparency is definitely a message with depth and weight! Been on the journey now for 3 years and been listening to his truth frequently since the beginning! One day I hope to have a conversation with this dude.
Thank you for this.
You are so so welcome 🫶
I’ve met Brandon through a friend of mine that i haven’t seen in years so not knowing of drug disease or addiction. At a point of time I let my friend and Brandon stay at my home until they were approved for a place well my friend did something disrespectful and kicked him out and told Brandon you can stay while you wait for approval well he choose not to and go with his friend for certain reasons. Well that approval didn’t go through so I call a friend that rents home and the dude approved him right away. In the meantime Brandon was sober or I wouldn’t of allowed him to stay at my home they were working for a Christmas tree company at the time we grew a friendship and watching this brought tears to my eyes. I’m so proud of you Brandon & the last apart really hit my heart so not only can it relate to addiction it can relate to depression which I’m going through right now. That part oh lord hit me hard. I know Brandon won’t see this but thank you man and congratulations on all your success and glad I got to know you in those few months of hanging out and trying to help. God bless you Brandon.
Novak I talked with you on the phone about 3 times briefly back in 2017 about getting help from meth and heroin you offered to fly out to west Chester but I didn't have insurance at the time I was so strung out I just didn't think it would be a reality so I gave up I'm currently 5 years clean off meth and heroin I have used your story to cope I just want to be able to tell you thank you so much man God bless
Congrats man that’s amazing, we do recover!! Shoot Novak a DM on instagram so he sees it!
Brandon continues to be an inspiration. Cheers, and for everyone who needs it, stay strong and know that we're pulling for you
Amen!!
This is so amazing to see. I always felt for Novak back in viva la bam and early jackass days. This is one HELL of a recovery story.
We couldn’t agree more!!
Thank you for posting this! I found his story inspiring!❤
You are so welcome! We post a lot of stuff like this on Instagram if you're interested :) @rehabroadtrips
So hype to hear this I just played your other story for my clients I’m a substance abuse technician and they loved it can’t wait to play this!!!
Thank You!!! I'm hoping to get past tomorrow, I found a bit of hope because of you.
Deep hard cold truth. Thank you man
