      I look at people's eyes during interviews. The moment they look to be reading from a teleprompter I tune out. Maybe it's just me down and to the left and right. It's all scripted with occasional deviations I guess that's show business.

    I've battled drinking from the age of 25 to 45 because I found myself living for the weekends and not happy with my choice of work carrier. I would drink through the week to cope with life and binge drink with friends on weekends when possible. At 45 I emotionally knew I was failing in life by my choices and actions from alcohol. At 47 I found my passion for the outdoors to be more true to myself, so I started a tube channel for fishing and camping. I am happy to say that I found myself before loosing everything I had embracing me like my wife and kids to the true friends that were not abusers. I can stay sober for weeks now and choose when and how much I want to drink if I choose to with friends. Life really begins when you understand!

    "Did you have a moment that led you to stop drinking?" is an extremely personal question, not one that can pulled off easily on a talk show in front of millions of people. Speaks to the talent of Conan and Galifianakis that they held this conversation so smoothly.

    Alcohol and cigarettes addiction actually destroyed my life. I could remember several years ago after divorce with my wife which brought me into my disastrous journey on Alcohol and cigarettes. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.

      100% agree I used to have Psychosis and paranoid thoughts like "people thinking about me talking about me etc. Very odd behavior after getting off Adderall from 7-16. Antidepressants at 18-29. 31 now. I took way to much, but took about 20g of Gold caps (Psilocybin containing mushroom) I analyzed my entire life. The emotions that came out helped me understand behavior etc more. Wont ever need to do it again because I'm happy and contempt forever, but I wish more people did this to alter their perception of reality. Would help with healing much trauma

    I can’t even imagine dealing with crowds of people noticing you everywhere you go. I saw Zach at a bar in Hollywood back in 2005 right before he got really big fandom with the hangover. Only me and one other friend even knew who he was from out cold, but we just let him be. He was literally at the bar drinking a beer by himself and not a single person came up to him the whole time we were there. I’ll bet Zach misses those days when he could be at a restaurant or bar and no one bothers him.

    He's one of those people who was simply just born to do comedy. It's so effortless seeming to him that I think it's just his actual, natural personality.
    I got a pretty funny little story actually. I wasn't there but my neighbors were all hanging out, I live in a very touristy area and a lot of movies are filmed around here but it's not California/Hollywood, and at the time he was filming "The Campaign" with Will Ferrell. Anyway, my neighbor is very open to the tourists and passers-by and her front door is basically always unlocked if not outright open and there's almost always a party going down when she's in town.
    Anyway, one night none other than Zach Galifianakis shows up, walks in and just wants to kind of see what is going on at this open house gathering. He's talking to my neighbor for like maybe 20-30 minutes or so, and finally he asks "Where is the best bar around here?" because in this same area there is basically nothing but bars and clubs and restaurants. She recommends one to him, he says thanks and goes on his merry way.
    As he's leaving, my neighbor's daughter is like "Don't you even know who that was?" and she said "No, who is he?" and then her daughter tells her "Dude, that's Zach Galifianakis! He's a pretty famous comedian!" and my neighbor immediately shuffles outside and is like "ZACH! Zach, come back here for a second!" and he does.
    She says "Are you famous?" and he says "Well, I thought I was"

Ive been locked up numerous times, got a DUI, have barfed slipped in my own barf and covered my back in it and rubbed it off on a tree while families watched in horror, was a douchebag of a boyfriend, lost my partner whom i loved and was haunted by shame. What helped me the most was ratting on myself to my friends and family how deadly serious my problem was. If youre struggling don't be afraid to reach out for help people, it could save your life. It was only a matter of time before I plowed my car and killed someone. Its only been 3 months but i feel more at peace. I highly reccommend reading This Naked Mind by Annie Grace and attending recovery meetings. It doesn't have to be 12 step but its what works for me. Theres also SMART Recovery, Refuge Recovery and other groups that might be a better fit for you.
