therapist she did yeah i'm not i'm never gonna find a therapist yeah and was it
weird and one of the
things you said in there was that you got to let people do their thing yes i
need to slow down i have
fomo i want to be involved in everything i want to like i just i get i feel
like i've done too much
just looking at you like if i look at you i'm like oh i gotta sit down for a
minute dude i get when i
wake up when i wake up if i hear something happening downstairs i gotta go
downstairs i go what are we
doing hang on we're playing with the dogs i want to be a part of that yeah like
dude i and i had my day
starts early and it just i i slam it because if i have any down time i get my
head i get on my phone
i don't it's just not positive and so i pack my days i had a therapist tell me
one time you have fomo
wow i was like that doesn't sound like a therapy yeah that well i mean it's
just crazy you would
yeah i guess you hear something you want to go see you want to be a part of you
want to know what's going
on yeah like i do when when you got sober did that change because there has to
be a part of you when
you get sober where you go hey man they're all going out but i'm cool staying
home oh no i just
didn't i what the best thing that happened from that was at like 11 30 or
midnight i was like i'm
heading home so you just didn't end up like in the retardation hours you know
you didn't end up
fucking you know sneaking into somebody's house through an air vent or some
fucking shit or some
dude tricking trying to trick you into being gay or whatever you know i'm so
glad when i hear you
talk like that i go i definitely don't have a problem i've never known anyone
to climb through
an air vent dude i can't so i can't believe you're in therapy so that's going
on yeah i like it you do
i didn't do therapy i quit therapy for a period of time because i was talking
too much meaning two bears
burkast something's burning and tore so i'm every day i'm talking like four
hours a day and i was like
i just was losing my voice like crazy i was like i can't talk i just don't
physically want to talk
anymore and then uh and then when i took time off i was like like second i took
time off like my first
week i got really depressed so i was like i don't know really yeah yeah but are
you able to figure out
like what that depression because otherwise it's not torn oh it's just not yeah

the go not being not being on the go not having something going not like hey uh
we're going to
pack you up we got to get you to we're going out to boston you're doing the
thing but you already
have you've done so much like don't you worry that burn like continuing to burn
it at that speed would
burn you out or maybe you just don't get burned out no i don't get burned i don't
