Laurence is the definition of a best mate. You can tell he's really listening and understanding what TG is saying. Good luck to both of you lads đ
Brian and Lawrence are the brothers I never had. I've never met you guys but I've got a crazy kind of love and respect for you guys.
Nice comment that, mate. Up the Citeh
I donât like city, but fair fucking play to u lad
@@abwxcdyz who cares abou what team he supports. It was a beautiful comment.
Agreed. Wish there were guys like this to just hang with and know in Denver, CO. Unfortunately as Brian said, there are so many people that are just users and only look at others with the mentality of "what can you do for me". These two guys are the types to have a real friendship with, text all the funny stuff to, have a beer, watch the UFC/boxing match and just do life with. Keep on putting out this content on just life and trying to be happier, it sounds like alot of fellas on here could use it, me included.
Newcastle fan here good win for yuâs the neet and respect to you wor kid
Brian just described my daily feels in 15 minutes. The last 3 years I've just give up on other people, I find myself lonely but am always the one pushing others away,even when their intentions are pure... it's a madness and endless cycle at the best of times. Chin up big man, you got ya circle and now you know who really cares about ya.
Bro, hope you're doing ok. You CAN get through this. You WILL get through this.
He describes a lot of peopleâs lifeâs and a lot of people know where he is coming from. Just keep your head up and stay strong. This world will beat you down but take the beating and move onto better things. Hope your ok bro.
this is me to a t, iâm sorry hat you feel this way right now, but i pray for you that everything gets better for you, and you feel so much more happierđ€
@@lucyamelia5260 awww thanks sis that put a smile on my face đ€
@@elliottbaird3833 yeah he's a great guy and Lawrence too, it's a life long battle bro but one that I won't give up on. Thanks for spreading the love and good energy like this, it really does make a difference! Hope all is good your end bro đ
Itâs so weird to think that Lawrence is now a parental figure, I hope all goes well mate
I hope not
Adam explain why bro ?
More of a bro than a parent
Adam youâre hilarious
You have no idea how much you two help us, especially with mental health. I have been suffering from poor mental health for years and sometimes it becomes too overwhelming where you feel like there is no coming back, but you guys saying "You aren't alone", helps so much. Thanks for everything lads - I will keep fighting.
youve got this mate theres light at the end of the tunnel
This has popped up in my recommended list on mental health awareness day and on a day that Iâm struggling on so thanks for this on CZcams. Much love to Brian and Lawrence
CBD oil, meditation, gym and deleting social media has helped me tremendously
Eating healthy as well
Deleting social media or at least limiting my time on it was massive for me
TheHajinator honestly, you donât realise how much time you spend on it. Frees up so much time to work on yourself as well relising how fake and vague most people that use it are
CBD help? Donât know if I can take it because of work but might check it out. Iâve swapped drugs and depression for coffee and fitness and feel much better
OKC x it shouldnât do as it doesnât contain any THC or only a tiny tiny amount. If thereâs something Iâm felling anxious about Iâll just take a bit and my head feels clear. 100% recommend
Always appreciate Brian's insight into mental health issues, never had those problems and hope i never will. But if so ill have these videos. Cheers Geordie.
Anyone can get it mate everyone goes through just about pulling through
It's really good that your finding an interest in mental health even though your not experience problems. That could be the cure to never having issues. Good luck to yeh mate.
Yeah same
Damn youâre lucky.
I remember tweeting you a while back when you was down, I was saying how you've helped me through my battles with leukemia and my thoughts. I have had a transplant since that last tweet and you are still helping me through this now. Much love to you and Loz đȘ
đđ
Happiness is accepting yourself. To accept yourself you need to deal with your trauma and pain.
Your happiness is always YOU
TRUE!!!!!đđ»đđ»đđ»
words to live by
Sounds like hippie dippie bullshit, but it is true. đ
I can really relate to a lot of the struggles you're talking about, Brian. Sending you bro hugs.
Cheers for this lads, good to know I'm not alone in these feelings, so much sense talked by Brian. Big respect for this!
Thank you for this, currently going through a difficult time, and watching you as a strong man open up! It really helps me to feel not alone, thank you. Big respect
1.9k likes and 11 dislikes this really shows how much we r behind Brian .stay strong đđđđ
Love this. So much respect for you two, always enjoy your your content, hope you feel better Brian. I think a lot of people are struggling at the moment. Take care big man
It's in the darkest nights you see the stars the most
Geordie at least the job you love helps a lot of young people deal with their own lives and problems. Youre a mate to every one of them, try and be grateful for that brother youre leaving a mark on people thank you
Just shows even big guys like Geordie can good through bad times I've started on anti depressions and beta blockers for anxiety have helped me was so low before
Good to hear man, hope it goes well. Also, be weary of staying on them things for too long. Take the benefits from them but using them in the long term can have the adverse effect
Never experienced having serious depression but i would suggest doing exercise to improve mental state (I may be wrong).
Two good friends speaking honestly to each other - amazing content, will always support these guys
Brave, authentic, open - â€ïžđâ€ïžđ
I hope this becomes a movement on CZcams. A twitch streamer took her life the other day due to depression. Mental health affects everyone. Men, women of all ages, whether regular people and famous people. Itâs ok to feel not ok and it starts by speaking out about your struggles and normalising getting help. I commend TG for speaking about this, someone of his status on CZcams, it makes his fans more comfortable and makes it more normal for us to then talk to others about our issues.
yeah tbh. When did he say anything about covid 19? Tf
@yeah tbh. You said âcovid plan is workingâ what did you mean?
Very important topic to discuss. Thank you for opening up. It is tough to be vulnerable and I think we all have to appreciate that everyone wants to have genuine relationships and feeling happiness. Sending constructive and supportive vibes!
Brave words from the big man!! Respect!!! I suffered with my mental health for 30 years before coming out of it 3 years ago after thinking it would never end. Hold on there is hope.
Great to hear you guys talking about mental heath, I suffer with pychosis and take a lot of meds to help but the side affects can be as bad as the pychosis tbh..
As a Mackem Iâve got nowt but respect for you and your story. Keep strong kidda
I have these strange recurring episodes of day time depression that come and go daily. I feel it most when I wake up every morning. Moment I get up I'm physically very tired and drained. Body is stiff and my mood just feels so low. But as I said it's just an episode and lasts for approx 4 to 5 hours. It lasts till around 4 pm after which I start feeling normal again. In the evenings I'm very energetic and I feel like myself once more.
Lawrence's first 10-30 seconds in the video is so so underated and overlooked (I feel). Casual sex culture and social media has really had a negative impact on the mental health of women and men in our culture.
Itâs shocking that True Geordie feels that way. Besides the hiccups/Drama that occurred in the past involving TG, I still see him and Lawrence as really successful and also as role models showing that itâs never to let to achieve your dreams. If they hadnât spoken about problems such as this I would have guessed they felt they achieved nearly all (if not all) of their dreams and aspirations. Itâs crazy how peopleâs perspectives on certain situations are so different. Stay strong the both of ye, better times will come. Lawrence good luck on becoming a father too, Iâm sure youâll be great.
This is how I feel about losing my mum 2 yrs ago to an 18 month misdiagnosis.
I felt like this for a very long time. And this speaks to me.
I've pushed everyone away, just in a state of unease....
Thanks for this.
And just so you know I've been here for a while and thank you again for your first Christmas podcast, for us to not feel alone.
Much love
Sorry to hear about your mother mate, Iâve also been feeling down and confused for a few years now and it never gets easy, secret is to never give in or give up weâre all in this together.
@@harambe7430 thank you for that. I really appreciate your comment. It's made my morning better. I hope you have a good day today. All my best
How are you doing now, mate? Best wishes to you
I feel you man. I'm going through a really tough time. And I feel like I'm all alone. But I know it's just a phase, and it'll get better.
Thank you. I've been stuck in my house with my 2 cats since march. I am going mental. Totally fecked off. Tried knitting, learned the Harry Potter tune on the glockenspiel but ultimately, life on your own sucks arse. Keep safe folk x
How old are you?
Jason Mort I'm in my forties but I have a dodgy immune system due to illness.
Stay strong dude đȘ
Booyah! More talks like this need to happen for us blokes!
Yea, for the women to actually understand us! đ
Seeing as I'm in quite a similar situation as the one brian was in for 4 years, these podcasts and open minded dialogue give me hope and strength the fight on
Thanks guys, great clip. I can definitely relate to the struggles you guys have in life.
I understand what Brian said about working hard and being scarred as a man, looking back. Still alive and trying to find who the fuck you really are. Trust is difficult.
I really relate to you on this Brian. Thanks for sharing guys.
I and so many can relate to what you are saying. The way we are herded and worked cradle to grave on this planet is not meant to be the way humans should live. It is a daily struggle keeping positive even if you are blessed in many factors...what is happening now worldwide will push many over the edge. All I can humbly say is look within, try meditating (I have just started...not easy but anything worthwhile seldom is) and just carry on being a good person, doing good and block anything/anyone negative with a smile...:)
Love you both, stay strong lads.
Literally cried to this video, because itâs so relatable
Itâs ok to talk , as a male i feel the struggles stay strong both of you â€ïžâ€ïžđđ
You and Lawrence are both awesome people. I can relate to it Geordie, i've been depressed for a long while now, i'm on anti depression meds but there are times where i just mentally meltdown and just can't deal with anything and my stress and anxiety go through the roof, two years ago around Christmas i really debated ending it all, i'm nearly thirty and i really have no clue what i'm going to do now.
really sympathise with geordie, exactly what iâm going through
Mental health issues is a illness not a mood that âthey will get overâ
I agree but you can get through it remember that
Depression is a reaction to your life not being the way it should be
RyboXBL you couldnât be more wrong. Look at fury he had everything he wanted but still had depression. Please educate yourself before making a comment like this. Depression isnât sadness because things arenât going your way. Quote Robin Williams who committed suicide due to depression âdepression isnât when everything is going wrong but when everything is going rightâ
Mental health is an awful thing, but nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about
Deep conversation. Finding that balance of vetting people that deserve to be in your life takes practice. I think when we are younger we are so eager to get out there and have fun, that we don't pay attention to the red flags that people show way at the beginning that they are not trustworthy. I think of the quotation of Maya Angelou: "When people SHOW you who they are in the beginning, believe them." I have learned through the hard school of knocks that it is not just what people say to you, it is what they show you.
If a person tells me they respect me, but they mistreat others badly in front of me (so-called friends that they have, their relatives, whoever), they are probably going to mistreat me eventually. If a person tells me they are 'nice' but there is a trail of hurt souls they left behind, they are not going to be nice to me.
So important for dudes to talk about their depression. Thank you for this Geordie.
learnt from my mistakes but not recovered from them. Love the way he phrased that:)
Respect for opening up
Love you man you make me happier bro â€ïž
If you are feeling anxious or depressed at the moment, please know that it *will" pass. We are never given more than we can deal with.
Wow dude love your honesty and thank you for sharing and I am the same place - I not happy now, do what I want, or where I want to be, there is journey ahead ups and downs, but in the hards day or times is what really tests my character but that time will past - Thanks for sharing TG2 :)
I feel this video. Bryan and Lozza seem like top chaps Iâd love to open up to. Always talk people đȘđŒ
So much love for TG and Lozcast â€đ
You're a great guy mate stay happy
Was always on the negative about Lawrence, but this changed that. What a humble and honest video. TG youâre a brilliant guy with a brilliant vision. The Kick Off is testament to that. Youâve hit rock bottom and you are building yourself back up. Donât let anyone use you, keep your circle small dude đđ»
Crazy coincidence, Iâve been feeling worse than ever the past few days so this video was really relevant. Thanks guys
Good on CZcams for putting this on mental health tab! Good talk lads â€ïž
What an inspiration you are Brian,
Geordie we love you. Always know that â€
I have the same issue in my life. Trying to be greatful everyday to hang on.
Such a great bloke, our TG x
Social media sets such an unrealistic expectation for young men and women itâs almost like itâs on distorted universe
Good video on a very important subject as I lost my sister earlier this year due to taking her own life because of mental health problems
2 fuckin kings itâs okay to be like that youâll come out on top Bri
Very inspirational â€ïžâ€ïž
This is the kind of comment section we love. â€ïž Well done lads.
Brian you're a hero man
Mega respect to Geordie and Laurence. Top draw people who genuinely care about others. Two of the last CZcamsrs who arenât fake, deep down stand up guys who lead by example. âđ»
Seeing the vulnerability in a 20 stone Geordie who would knock ten bells out of you shows the power of mental health. Social media mentions mental health in men often. Sadly , for me , itâs token. Although it encourages conversation which is good. Not enough insight into why young men are disproportionately affected etc. Dig in , and surround yourself with good people ... important.
Never just aim for the big things they wont matter in the long run and always appreciate the small things in life
Swear down Brian and loz have taught me a lot in life not to give a fuck what to do what to say mad respect for them both
Unreal how much I relate to Brian, itâs actually mad
Brian is so right, like in some parts you are there then you think more and your like nope I want to be here I want to do this and non of that is happening, diet, how I look, work, enjoying what you do etc.
Geordie you have just gone right up in my estimation, bravo lad.
You should do as JRE does, put "From the xxx podcast" in the description with a link for those who want to watch more
When people meet me they assume Iâm a very confident person but Iâm actually struggling with anxiety itâs just the way I come across i look like a confident person but all the time Iâm a very anxious person Iâm afraid of blushing because i tend to do that a lot thatâs my worst fear. I hate going red I just want to disappear when it happens I know Iâm not the only one. Any tips how to not blush and reduce my anxiety would be very much appreciated if anyone comments I will definitely read them thank you x
P Jr try to find something weather itâs an activity or anything that distracts you from the anxiety for however long
Try cbd
Bro it's all about switching up your focus and going for it. Like you have to not blush and take it from the perspective of not caring about what people think. Although it matters, you are your own person and being embarrassed about it will make it worse when there is no reason to
Meditation has helped me a lot. Given time and practise, it allows you to take a step back from the anxiety and see it for what it is. The best way I've heard it described is picture a river which represents your emotions, thoughts etc and usually we are swept away by the river, drowning in it but meditation allows you to step out of the river and watch it and therefore you are not being swept away. So it's not about getting rid of the anxiety but watching it and seeing it for what it is. Over time, you can become friends with your anxiety! Hope this helps.
Fellowes2008 thank you so much mate I will try meditation
Big up guys great vid đđŸ
Love how you two can have a laugh but also discuss those important topics đ
Keep fighting pal

Great display of vulnerability. Well done lads!!!
God cares and loves you guys
I fucking love you bro
Miss the email question segments of the podcast
I have completely given up on myself. I have no care for my health or body at all right now. I am sort of just daydreaming my way through life atm, and drinking to keep myself happy. I also tend to ruin my relationships with anyone who wants to be close to me. I donât keep friends for more than a month and always end up fucking people over.
Love the TG t-shirt
Legends
Watched this vid 3 times now
It's just a part of who I am...
When you except it you can live with it đ
