nobody else was hurt and did you have insurance yeah it's getting taken care of
but it's just
been a shitty week i got cheated on too so oh that's i can't believe you
actually listened to
my voice mail yeah well it just shook me you know i mean it just made me you
know it seemed like you're
having a going through a tough time and i've been there for sure um i'm going
on 19 hours of no drinking
over right now let's go that's awesome dude 19 hours is big i know it's a lot
for me yeah yeah it is i'm
happy for you that's awesome what do you think uh so what what time of day or
what kind of happens that
you start to you you feel like you start to fall apart a little bit or make you
drink well it was
really the start of my job i started a job last year and we ended up having to
work like it was a
mandatory seven days a week and it's been like that the whole time i started
and i finally they fired me
in october that then that's when really started to fall apart i started showing
up drinking on my job
and stuff it was just getting really rough you find out yeah so you you just
drinking to get by huh
yeah oh i went through a couple of relationships i tried to make relationships
and just got cheated on
it's just it's been a rough year really yeah dang and where do you got family
over there or no
yeah i live with my mom and my dad oh nice you have any children oh i'm 24 i'm
still living a little
bit of life return to oh well look i think you got some blessings right there
and then so you don't
have a you don't have a responsibility outside of yourself you got to take care
of that's nice you
know yeah i mean except for your folks you know yeah do you ever um go to aa
meetings or anything
no i've never thought about it i got put on uh medication a while back but i
got off of it
and i think that kind of made it worse because it's like cold turkey oh yeah
that can be tricky
but i felt like the medicine was just making me more depressed but it could be
from the drinking too
while drinking on it so i've never had like talked to a therapist or anybody
about it
what do you feel i mean do you feel like you drank too much you just feel like
you
feel bad i mean are you or do you just feel like maybe you just had a tough
couple days
no judgment either i'm not judging you yeah i just
i've been through i know there's people out there that go through worse things
but i have was in a relationship for a few years before i moved back in with my
parents and it was
abusive and i lost i had a i was pregnant and i lost my baby and i think that's
where it all started
it's just really hard yeah i bet that's tough huh you probably just
i don't know what did it did you start yeah like what did you start feeling you
think
i just felt like i couldn't do nothing and kill it anymore i think that's where
it all started like
to fall apart for me and i kept trying to like get back up and it just kept
bringing them back down
and then i just picked up alcohol and it's funny because i used to never want
to drink not even when
i turned 21. yeah it's just a lot of baggage i feel like oh yeah oh if i just
can't feel if i feel
like i just can't do good anymore that's horrible feeling yeah i'm sorry i'm
sorry i'm sorry you
that you've been dealing with all that i'm trying to get back up on my feet get
another job i think
that's not working and stuff like that is really you're just sitting at home
thinking in your head
all the time i don't i have one friend and i love her to death she always tries
to help me but i'm
kind of a hard head and i don't listen to you oh yeah yeah yeah we can't yeah
it's hard yeah don't
try to help me um well dang yeah i wish there was some way that i could help
out you know i wish there
was something i could do to be supportive um yeah i mean do they have
therapists in your town do you
think even going to somebody like that would help i'm just trying to think of
something that might help
you get a better you know or do you need to get a new job do you think you
could even work right now
what do you think's going on i don't i don't even i don't know how to start i
don't know if i
i've always like been around people that tell me therapy doesn't work and you
don't need to go to pay
somebody to tell them about your problems because they don't care you know
stuff like that so i guess i
kind of just stuck that in my head that i didn't need to go talk to people
about it i guess yeah i
kind of just hold it in until i explode yeah well yeah i just don't know if
that's good or not i don't
know if it's good for anything to hold anything in that long you know no it's
not but i've always
grew up where you don't talk about your emotions that much so oh yeah dude oh
god if i if you felt
something in my neighborhood somebody call you a dang to be honest with you you
know and no offense
i didn't say that i think it's a no that's exactly how it is but damn yeah i
feel you there um
well how about this maybe i'll just is it i'll check back in with you in like a
week or something to
see how things are going okay that it really helped me calling like you
actually heard me like it just
felt made me feel better yeah well i i know what that's i yeah i can relate to
that man for sure
yeah just sometimes you just need somebody to listen yeah
yeah that's true man i feel that i feel that
yeah i feel that i definitely feel that yeah it feels good to get it out but
you know
some people just don't want to hear about your thoughts they're always like
well i'm doing with
this i'm doing with that everybody's done with yeah but sometimes you just need
somebody to hear you
out and not make you feel crazy for it yeah and you're right sometimes we just
want somebody to
listen you know we just want something to be you know we just want a place to
put something there's
obviously different things you could go do to try to get help for yourself you
know or if you wanted
to you have insurance or no yeah i do okay cool so you could if you wanted to
try therapy then you
could try it at least you know i know it takes time to like try and figure that
out but that is a thing
and then um yeah but yeah how about this i'll just yeah i just want to just i'll
check back in
like in a week or something and just see how you're doing is that okay if i
check back in
yeah that's fine okay cool um all right well have a good time over there what y'all
gonna do for
thanksgiving yeah i don't know what are your parents doing they're cooking some
food and well
family it was out i'm not on good terms with my brother right now so it's gonna
be kind of awkward
damn i wish i could figure that out before he gets over there
everybody tells me to apologize i need to stop holding the garage i know i do
i'm working on it yeah i feel you sometimes that stuff's hard you know it's
hard um maybe yeah
i don't i don't know i i feel you i struggle with that i got the same issues
with some of my family
it's tough you know it's family's tough um but yeah if i can't swallow my pride
for my family you know
at least do it for myself for others you know because it don't have to be about
me on thanksgiving
that's what i started thinking the other day yeah you know i don't i don't
deserve to ruin other
people's day just because i have feelings a certain way you know i should be
able to figure that out
i'm not telling you that i'm just saying that to me really
gotta be humble and grateful well i just i should be able to approach somebody
in my family at the end
of the day say we're the last minute on earth
what do i what do i want that family member to think i want them to think oh i
was holding something
against them you know that i couldn't figure out you know like no i would want
my family
member to think that i love them you know and so i gotta figure that out even
if it's
for short-term basis you know because i i don't know i just don't want yeah i
don't want to be
always a part of the problem you know yeah but all right well i got to finish
up because i'm
about to go watch some football all right what's your first name
well i appreciate you calling and i just hope you hang in there and uh yeah
just don't feel alone
you know because that's that isn't true yeah i know i have family that supports
me yeah and you
just have people that are like you i think sometimes you just have to go find
you have to
it's hard sometimes we gotta we gotta we gotta find them you know yeah so but
anyway i hope i'm not
trying i don't sound like i'm trying to preach at you do i no no i needed this
actually i needed
to talk to somebody about it yeah anything else you're feeling
no i'm just gonna drink a bunch of water and keep going there you go stay
hydrated baby that's what
you can do all right emily happy thanksgiving all right happy thanksgiving you
have a good one okay
you too take care wow sweet girl
yeah man it just that's wow that's so funny that's the same things i'm dealing
i got some
family just like it's tough but then what do i want to do i want to go i want
to bring all this
shit or tell my family members like well i don't want to be there if they're
there and then i'm just
making a storm and the truth is there's a part of me inside of me that that
wants to be around my family
it wants everything to be okay you know but there's another part of me that
wants to have things my way
that's really what it is for me even if the other person wronged me or i don't
like their energy
or whatever i can't figure the shit out for two hours you know and then what's
my part in it
i'm a saint no sometimes sometimes i'm a saint bernard with a couple of face
tattoos baby i'm
fucking jelly wolf you feel me so don't make me pop the trunk ah
Thank you.
