@@AfterSkool Thank you!!
@@bryphi77 You may be right, but that doesn't make ALL his content worthless. Whether or not this can be considered promoting Rogan or not is debatable.
The irony of watching this after scrolling for hours on CZcams
Lets take it as a wake up call
CZcams is a bit different. I have recently stopped using Instagram and I haven't been using Facebook and Twitter for months. And I feel great. But I still use CZcams and it's better if you watch better videos solely for the entertainment and educational purposes. On Instagram it is like same meme over and over again. Same shit, people either showing off or advertising shit.
You’re lying to yourself bro
Ajay Choudhary i agree, understanding that social media and technology can be used in many different ways is important. Even browsing pointless memes is not a bad thing, you just have to make it a point to yourself that this is entertainment and I’m not going to sit here doing this for a while.
Smoke a joint and it will feel normal
“No tree, it is said, can grow to heaven unless its roots reach down to hell.”

woooooooww. that hit me hard.
PPfffFFffFFF !!!!!! How come Ive never heard these fundementals before.
Jung and Nietzsche understood human nature to a T
_timetravels explorations if you read jung, there’s a whole journey of fundamentals. BE WARNED It will take up energy especially if your from the west. But it is very worthwhile.
He doesnt get enough recognition
Jesus everytime Duncan talks there's something so beautiful about it. He just knows the right words to use
Couldn’t agree more
Sounds like you have a crush
@@bobbyboucher1936 haha for sure man crush on him
James Caine same
I think he might be the most insightful person Joe has ever had on the show.
It’s like what Jim Carrey says that depression is good. It’s your body needing deep rest from who you were trying to be... the character you are playing.
@MegaSkilla Just because he made mistakes doesn't mean his messages don't hold true. Shane Dawson did fucked up things that I cannot stand by and condem him for, but he has given us many good messages over the years: loving yourself enough to get help, you are loved by somebody in the world, etc.
? Depression is good? WTF have you been smoking
@@jonsnow1278 He meant, sometimes letting stuff out is really good for you
@@jonsnow1278 lmao
Yeah but it's not necessarily a good thing if it's a symptom of an issue. Sounds more like something you tell yourself as a tactic to feel better, which is fine if that works for people.
"Heartbreak is actually your ego cracking.. And the moment that cracks you're in the experience of truth, and when you're in the experience of truth that's where you become who you are." Duncan trussell
Midnight Gospel is an animated show that is an interview-style show created BY Duncan Trussell so I HIGHLY recommend it if you enjoy him!
growingoaks productions Thank you for suggesting that, and yes I've watched it. Guess your pretty late 😅
Eddywoop No lmao I watched it all when it came out on 4/20. I was amongst the first to see it.
True...
Ian Corral I mean the ego definitely takes a massive hit when you love someone who doesn’t love you back
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the visuals on this video. The symbolism is unreal.
It adds so much to the conversation. Love it 💕
Divine Moments of Truth
Some of the animations are from the haunting "In Shadow" by Lubomir Arsov. Definitely worth watching!
@@brentyoendo1573 will check that out thanks!
That lil animation is from somewhere else I don't know if they drew it but I think it's from a completely different video that they may or may not have made
I just went through a mental break down. I went into a state of psychosis and when I came out I went to therapy. When I explained how I felt she replied," it sounds like you are going through a metamorphosis." She could not be more right. Its not easy to feel negative thoughts and emotions but I feel as if by the end of this road I will be stronger and more focused.
Exactly right! I had a mental breakdown in my early 20's. Looking back I was putting up a mask and it got too hard to put up. In reality the "breakdown" actually broke me out of the matrix of society. So grateful.
I just turned 21 and experienced this as well. I was trying so hard to be liked by everyone. Things happened in my personal relationships, I broke mentally, shaved my head, quit my job (that I was advancing quickly in unfortunately), destroyed my life. Now I'm beginning to rebuild it after 6 months of just overthinking daily. I feel like I am just beginning to grasp REALITY, but I know that I still know absolutely nothing. That's the great things about life I think! You just keep learning
thanks for sharing
How do you stop holding up the mask without having a breakdown?
@@erazemmartinjak7965 Most likely holding up a mask for too long will cause a breakdown. Being true to yourself at all times while still being relatable to others can help. Gotta find a balance and environment that resonates best with you.
@@erazemmartinjak7965 Accepting yourself fully as you are now is also helpful.

Literally what I was going to comment lol
He just had a brain fart mid thought.i just luv him more he’s human ❤️
I just typed this, scrolled down and seen you had done it... spot on
I've had two breakdowns in my life. The first one was fixed by quitting alcohol. The second one was fixed by running/riding/hiking long distances, often alone.
Kind of same for me. Sober + weight lifting / exercise. Cured.
Steve Fink what was your motivation? I’ve been to in treatment rehab. I’ve relapsed. I need help. Doing therapy, AA...all that.
Mike Ash thx 🙏
Proud of you
@@mikeohann3106 Same here, Fasting, and intermittent fasting saved me, and my health. Good luck to you.
Duncan is so humble and knowledgeable he's truly an artist.
"We humans are so tortured by not properly guessing what will make us happy."
God.
@@lo.fr.8092 If God works for you, hell yeah brother. For me it's sinning. I'm a gay. It feels good. Heheh!
Nothing will make you happy, happiness ain’t someone thing you can get it’s not real. Happiness comes from peace inside you and knowing truly that no matter what happens things will be ok. A lot of the time happiness comes from helping others having a family and true love but true love is hard to find you must find something you love doing first you must find you and carry on doing you. You can always find something you are passionate about
@@zzzo4509 preach daddy
@@nullobject5943 LOL!
The best thing that ever come from my mental breakdown was to not give a f**k, what friends think, family think and to just be you. life is too short.
Man, when you realized this?
These drawings are trippy as HELL man, paired with the words they're saying? Great work.
It's only trippy to those who see their reflection in the art and story.
@@TickyTack23 I just mean the symbolism the artist uses, it's on point.
Damn Violent I hope you’ve seen Midnight Gospel, because if not, you are MISSING OUT
@@samhammond7575 Thank you.
I mean a little bit haha. You gotta stop getting high and watching these videos man
The problem I’m having is, I don’t know what else I want to pursue in life. This numbing feeling I get from the internet is enjoyable, but I understand myself I’m spending too much time on it. Progressing in studies and hobbies seem plausible, but the lack of enthusiasm drives me straight back to social media.
sounds like you’re looking for ends, my friend. a big shift a friend taught me is to forget the ends, every single thing can be a means to the end. you never have to find the end. the means are where we find fulfillment.
@@samhammond7575 yea. there's a reason ppl say " enjoy the journey, not the destination". i guess you don't really try to go outside of your comfort zone and try some shit for a hour, day, week etc. and it turns into " idk what to do, have nothing to pursue, because i don't know what I want". that's actually very common if you didn't get hooked on something in childhood, either try to join some activity groups or as i said try to break the turtle shell where you feel secure and can be lazy, because nothing drives you forward. can't expect some magical people to appear and fix your life. time flows either we want it or not. duncans analogy of broken bone is perfect, have to break the bad habits and start something.
i never liked animals, except canaries while growing up, because i rarely met them and interacted with them. now im 29 and I'm helping my grandparents in the farm with horses, cows, cats/dogs, chickens etc. because i enjoy it and even have plans with gf to move there. and for the last 6y im working in friends company, atm manager of whole country south sector stores, yet I hardly feel like im sitting in my home and looking at the wall till it moves away and gives me answers.
Look at what you enjoyed as a child man all the way up till when you had to take on more responsibilities I find the truth lies somewhere in there for most people
Try something really challenging, something that'll get that adrenaline going. I guarantee you'll forget all about your social media fix.
I think this sums up how majority of ppl feel and social media companies profit from it
It’s funny, I was raised in a society that was begging me to be an artist, be creative, express yourself. I finally found peace when I decided to go to law school. Ironic
Opposite for me
Do what works for you, do what you love. Maybe you'll be an entertainment lawyer, looking out for the interests of the artistic, creative types.
Everyone is different. I am the first person in my family tree to go to university, so it isnt like my parents are overtly pushing me into academia. However, I genuinely want to become an engineer, and working a desk job isnt necessarily hell for me.
same thing here, but your art was economy for me, and I chose linguistics!
I love this comment, Thank you.
A mind broken, is a mind broken open. Same goes for our hearts. Pain is the doorway to rebirth. If we change our definition of pain we can grow into the joy of being.
beautiful insight!
Well, pain is pain. Things hurt. I think it’s important to distinguish that life isn’t all flowers and rainbows. I think it’s important to always respect the gift of life that every being on this planet has been given, including yours. I do like your insight though, it is very true in its own right
Very well written! Love this 🙏
Well said thankyou.
I had a mental breakdown and went to a psychiatric hospital and now I feel I can experience life in the best way possible. Thank you for ur channel
Ronnie2K_ the3rd all the best big lad
Good luck to you!
@@Ella-tf8yv thank u!
What happened?
Good luck mate did talking to a psychatrist help?
I love how this dude drew this for like 3 days straight and I just have it going on in the background while I circle around the kitchen making food
This made my day and I like that quote: "It's better to be an honest street sweeper than a dishonest king."
People avoid themselves, and nothing gets resolved. Some people have literally hated being quarantined because they are scared to meet themselves. So yeah, it takes a mental breakdown when a person refuses to do the work any other way.
R. Lucas ugh no we don't like being forced into agoraphobia by a government claiming that bit cares when the government-coperate Janis tells you something it's a lie 100% of the time.
lee Roberts completely missing the point or maybe not wanting to confront how it applies to you.
100% true- most people are afraid to be alone. It is such an unhealthy stance.
One of the things that helped to cure my anxiety was literately sitting with myself without any distractions, usually outside. It's amazing how powerful this is.
Did youtube just sense that I was having an anxiety attack?
Perhaps it did. It is thought that when AI becomes self-aware, it will be an enlightened Buddha of Binary, seeking good and peace. Also if you have a smart watch, it can detect your heart rate, and then maybe CZcams, filtering by your likes, went "here's a video that might come in handy"
We all iz
I was thinking the same thing!!
I think CZcams can sense what an individual is feeling
Maybe they are manipulating people into anxiety attacks?
Lost my job and apartment this week. I needed this.
Sorry to hear that buddy, you will bounce back stronger 💪 hope you are well
@@TheJamezay Thanks man i actually found a new job today :)
@@jpjapers Ayyye thats awesome news man, hopefully its even better than your last one 🙏
Jack you got this bro I believe in you❤️
Jack watching angry people on the internet, arguing and being negative all day. I needed some good news in my day. Stay up, Jack! We all rooting for ya!
Its more painful to run from pain than to walk right into the eye of the storm and confront it
"It's better to be an honest street sweeper than a dishonest king"
Damn
Its rlly not tho lol. Id rather be a dishonest king
Like: “It’s better to be a warrior in a garden, than a gardener in a war.”
Chris Garand but that warrior has seen some shit
@Joe Villa for your own well being that is if your grateful for life
This is just a midnight gospel episode
I wrote something similar as a joke and then went to look up the show to make sure I was spelling the title right...
It is!
This would have been a good midnight gospel episode
José Dirks yeah
CDWC I'm just saying it's a midnight Gospel ep to me.
Any mental breakdown which can be depression and/or anxiety is a check engine light your brain turns on and needs fixing. Forget medication because it doesn't work or is supposed to be a temporary fix/help until you get ahold of yourself and make that change needed to get back to normal. You have to reprogram your brain to start enjoying life again and stop fearing your temporary malfunction. I healed from anxiety. Which was because of a long time of stress that brought me the worst anxiety disorder/insomnia/depression you can imagine. Once I said I'm not gonna fear this fearful/anxiety sickness and start living. Then I started to heal. It takes time for your brain to heal and get back to normal. That's where people lose patience and don't get out of it, thinking it'll never go away. Everybody is different. So no telling when you'll fully heal but eventually you will. I'm about 1yr and 3 months from when I changed my way of thinking and started healing. I'm at 90% back to normal. Remember. The only thing to fear is fear itself.
I'm crying thank u you so much
@@_oreomilkshakes2618 just change your way of thinking. By doing that change. You'll get better little by little. You'll be rewiring your brain. You'll notice as ever day goes by. You'll feel a little bit better. Just the way you can get sick. You can also heal. Been there done that. You gotta get to a point in your life where you tell yourself "enough is enough. I'm done suffering. I gave you your time. Now I'm done with you". Let's do this. Let's say Fu*k it. I'm gonna live my life. And be happy like I should be. Let's do this.
As the son of a schizophrenic mother, I’d say that dismissing medication is literally a life and death matter. Many people who might not need it overuse it, sure, but many people who need it aren’t taking it. Your story sounds inspiring and needs telling, but just like trying to cure cancer through diet, some mental issues can not be controlled through being more mentally strong as you’re implying.
@@hanaf1231 I was taking about depression and anxiety when it comes to mental breakdown. Schizophrenia is something I don't know about. I believe that is permanent and do require some type of medication. Dont know. But as for depression and anxiety. You can heal from that. So many people have. Medication is not the answer for what I'm talking about.
All this is good advice, but I still can’t fix the fact that I’m shy when it comes to peeing. I just can’t be around anyone, I always have to go in the stall and sometimes that doesn’t help. I guess I can’t join the Marines😔
So funny and crazy to recognize this voice from Midnight Gospel. Oddly comforting in the best way lol
The most profound ego death I've ever experienced was from burning out. Substance-induced ego death is incredible, but the stress-induced one had me grace death - and the euphoria afterward from the brief relief I had was something else. Now I am a far better man, albeit still in recovery because I have to rebuild myself more or less from scratch.
Never be someone you aren't.
So cool! Keep it up. Thanks for sharing
Melancholy maked me a humble man
Do you mean burning out from work and daily stuff? I burned out from work a year and a half and I hit some extremely dark points.
@@luisdiaz3917 I think he means drugs
@@RedFrostproductions no i dont think so lol
All I can hear is Clancy having an interview with Joe Rogan since watching Midnight Gospel
I watched the midnight gospel then found out that Duncan trusses looks nothing like I thought he would
I didn't need to read this comment
I knew I recognized that voice
Lol yup
I agree, being on my phone too much feels like eating junk food, but for your brain. I’m learning my limits. And as a 15 year old noticing how many people can’t get off there phone is crazy. It’s like people are afraid to experience their own reality, and become addicted to distracting their selves with someone else’s.
Same here
I love when Duncan goes on Joe’s show, their conversations are always hilarious and also interesting and insightful
Spend less time consuming and more time creating
Mckenna thought that was his most important point. Very interesting
It isn't about creating, it's about being. Be present and if create while present then great, but it's about being present and stop deceiving yourself.
Jaxx imagine if you had a real weapon
Cody95XD you just used words to express a thought you had. You created something, albeit small. Creativity manifests in so many ways, even small and mundane acts. What do you think?
Or spend less time creeping and more time creating.
This is exactly what I have been struggling with and I'm happy someone finally addressed it I have never heard anyone explain this exact thing
...78 years ago? ..Am I a ghost? Holy shit
"permission to dive into that vortex of darkness" that is unbelievably well put it really sums up the resolution that follows, very nice !
I recognized Duncan's voice right away because I absolutely LOVE Midnight Gospel!
The bandwidth comment is so true, when I spend time working on projects in my shop the phone is in the house. Last Saturday my wife asked me multiple times if I had seen her post about something, my answers were all the same, "I haven't touched my phone today." People need to turn that shit off and LIVE LIFE!
I always come out of mental breakdowns feeling way better because I get a whole new perspective on things
I Had the first mental breakdown a month ago and I saw why I feel like I'm stagnating.
My plan is simpel.
Less video games and more Family, working out and planning for the future.
Listen to David Goggins
@@QBL11104 Tnx man, I'll watch that JRP first.
BTW,
Have you seen the last kevin Hart episode?
It's really good.
@Martin Shepherd ikr, yikes
One Mental breakdown is terrible enough. Having multible sounds scary as fuck.
Michael, your a tough dude man.
I have a panic disorder which, sometimes when triggered, one episode can last years. This isn't just a day of freaking out. My body will get so out of whack that it just turns on the physical terror for months and months at a time. No matter how I logically think or feel about it, It just happens. The doctors always wanted to throw SSRIs and Benzos and other such things at the problem. But no matter how bad I've felt, I've always refused, choosing to take what my body is doing and face to face with it head on.
It's in doing this that I have learned the most about myself. A few times it's been so bad and I've been so frightened that I've lost total sense of who I was or who people I've known all my life were. But you know what? I know better than some random drug. I know in happiness or in despair that it's my soul speaking to me. In these extremely hard years I had no CHOICE but to connect directly to myself and identify and resolve underlying problems deep in the roots of my being. Maybe it took years, or even for me decades to do, to unwind those hard issues, but in the end I am so much happier and able as a person.
Everyone wants to run away from the anxiety and bad feelings, but covering them up isn't the solution. It's just living a half life between meaningless surface level thoughts, and ignoring the person underneath. Anxiety is a tool you can use to strip away the bullshit and grow as a person. If you have the courage to get through total collapse, face the worst parts of yourself, and see out the other side, it puts the power in YOUR HANDS to be happy in your life. Not the world around you. Not if only this, or if only that. The situation you are in now. You don't get to choose what happens to you, but YOU get to choose how you want to frame it.
Getting through depressions, addictions, and mental disorders has shaped me into the person I am today. If I had just dropped pills and thought nothing of it, I'd be like all of my other friends who are still stuck in the same loop of avoidance and haven't moved forwards. You really need to sort out what your true thoughts are. The reason it never works for most people is they have no idea what "real thoughts" are and what surface level bullshit buzzing around your brain is. There is a difference. Just because you feel bad or are CONVINCED that "something" is the reason for why you feel bad in the moment, doesn't make it true. It takes a LONG time to really sit down and sort out what is truly important, and a lot of that process is not easy.
I finally got off meds after a decade and it started with getting away from my parents
I was going to point you towards Mingyur Rinpoche and his great meditation teachings which he used to overcome his panic attacks, but it sounds like you found a similar way on your own :)
Liked your comment until I seen addictions fuk u junkie
@@jonjones9747 Clearly, you missed the implication that I overcame my addictions and no longer have them. The very fact I am no longer subject to them has improved my life immensely.

You could make a clip outta over an hour of JUST this one podcast alone, probably my fav podcast
It's okay to breakdown and unpack, just do not start living there. Take a break, reassess, and move forward from it.
Just maybe you did not understand the message here. Don't move forwaed from it, but faced the thing and vinc the thing.

Haykke I quit Facebook and Instagram (now my only addiction is CZcams- working on that!). It's so true what Rogan says about the bandwidth in your brain- I would be doing work and continuously thinking about what I was missing out on on Facebook or Instagram, wanting to check in all the time. It annoyed me so much that one day I thought, I don't need this, I have so much on my plate that I want to concentrate on and accomplish. I closed them and have not looked back!
Going on a social media 'diet' feels great!
This video really hit me hard I broke down and I started bawling. I'm going through some of the stuff mentioned right now and I needed to hear and see this video. Perfect timing keep it up.
Thank you
You will get through it
Good luck, lil nikkuh 🙃
@@WolfMountford thanks for the feedback 😊
Strive for value, you're worth more than money can buy. Duncan Trussell suggested in a JRE podcast a while back to give what you can, your time and effort, or your possessions you don't use or need, your love will go a long way for someone who might need it and in turn, you will feel good making someone else feel good. Might be of some help? Stay strong! You are worth it.
bmwfitness28 I had a breakdown 2 days ago. Sobbed on my kitchen floor. It was embarrassing but I’m trying to forgive myself. I’m here if you need to talk
Duncan is a sage. He can see so deeply into the meaning and worth behind things. I’d love to talk to him about the meaning of life and shit.
It's "the little Things"
I had a breakdown associated with depression and generalized anxiety disorder in 2013. I was a complete mess for a couple of years and didn't get off my medications until 2019. The stigma is real. I made a few mistakes at work and unfortunately burned my bridge with my previous employer. However, it set me off on a new career which I absolutely love.
I seriously love these two together. I almost bankrupted after losing my leg two years ago because of someone else's neglect. I come back to this episode of JRE frequently to listen to this exact conversation on multiple occasions.
Thank you for putting this together, After Skool. Much love.
So true. I had a break down about 20 years ago and it transformed my entire life. The most painful thing that ever happened but also the best thing that ever happened.
I showed after skool to a teacher of mine and now we watch your videos before every class and the kids seem to engage and it’s really nice:)
This was nothing short of magic. You nailed it. I'm sure Joe and Duncan would be proud to be a part of this production.
Awesome story.👍🎬 🎥📚📃
It's interesting looking at people when they're high using their phones. They get anxious and the first thing they do to feel better is look at their phones. Being on drugs and panicking the first thing you see a lot of people do is immediately darting towards their phones for comfort.
Thanks Beavis
You're a fucking genius
It's the anxiety not the drugs, what they are doing is trying to avoid eye contact with people
Dude... I had a serious couple of weeks... and umm yeah... thanks for that one. I learned how powerful mediation was, I should try it more... thank you.
Wow.

But after this, I’m turning it off.
Sean Haggard lmao
Technology is everywhere around us and completely unavoidable. The only way to completely remove yourself from technology is leaving society entirely, and even then, people neglect to realize that even the most basic stone tools are technically a form of technology. Our lives, for better or worse, completely depend on technology.
Lies
The Ultimate Rage it’s so difficult to find meaning through connection in our world, when so many people seek their connection in their pocket.
Sean Haggard Oof damn son
I had a nervous breakdown in my early 30s. I ended up referring to it as my nervous breakthrough. But tbh I think these guys are mimimizing and simplifying the process and experience of serious mental illness. Sadly, it doesn't always end well or lead to a more balanced and enlightened state.
Are you doing better?
@@SothensKomplieze yes...that was long ago
To someone who has benefited from the experience, this certainly could seem like a minimization, but to someone who has never considered these concepts, minimization and focus on the positive is required to get the wheels turning. A full set of psychological lectures does not appeal to someone who has never considered that their core is flawed and/or that it can be repaired. Even arguing for or against (or both) your argument would be rather cumbersome without a lot of minimization. And I only argue because I too see minimization as a tool too often used to support toxic viewpoints, but to ignore the utility of a tool… I’m basically accusing you of minimizing minimization lol
Had one too, its hard to explain, maybe impossible to anyone who has not been there, For me it has been the Best three years I never wanna do again.... its all good You just need to let Go
It does for the rest there’s much needed medication/ nutrients
I'm going through exactly this right now so thank you for such an enjoyable video. Relatable and funny!

I've heard this talk on Joe's channel, but the addition of your drawings really brings it home. Excellent work you guys!
Wow this is so well animated, lovely to digest with the conversation.
Thank you for creating this unique combination of yours.
I was watching this video and got distracted a few minutes in by opening up Facebook on another tab and I didn't even realized what I'd done until after a minute or two. Clearly this was the video I needed today. (also that Screen Time thing hit home immediately)
Tool!!!
Remember. Facebook got addiction behavior design down to a scientific level. They own your subconscious at this moment.

Yeah but not enough people have. Mine came during an LSD trip

That's the thing that wont happen. At least some of us that do experience it may learn it onto others and so on. Atm its just sheep mentality
Mine was on shrooms. I turned into an ape and ran on all fours while my friend tried to catch me i his jeep. Before that though, i FREAKED out, afterwards i went catatonic for a day. Very rewarding experience, I realized im just a modern day caveman and im ok with this.
I have no desire to do shrooms ever again.
Thank you. I really needed to hear exactly this, right now!
Amazing video! THANK YOU for putting it together @After Skool!!!!
A man I look to greatly told me “change only comes out of necessity, and necessity only arises from crisis” we are so good at ignoring problems and we cover them up with lies to prevent cognitive dissonance. It sucks when you recognize this and still lack the courage to change,
This channel is a gamechanger! Combining wise knowledge with art and therefore making it very accessible for younger agegroups is genius!
YES!!! You have to face your shadow! I had my mental breakdown in 2020 and had the most intense shadow work in my life, i have healed so much childhood trauma, i have so much less anxiety and panic attacks now and i've found that Garden of Eden inside myself Duncan talks about! This guy is amazing, watch his Midnight Gospel cartoon, it's a masterpiece! Love and light! 🙏🌎❤️
Beautiful man. Please never quit doing this bro. You’re such a beautiful artist am i’m sure an inspiration to many.

Why does this make so much sense yet I would’ve never thought of this on my own
“My name is Clancy, do you want to be on my spacecast?” I love Duncan Trussell. Great visual animation for their chat. I loved this.
That was an absolutely incredible animation. Your talent is through the roof. The subject matter was also awesome. Thank you so much for your beautiful work!
The last analogy could be: "It's like someone who is on fire running away from the water because they're afraid they might drown".
you thief
@@laurenzweickert7804 ahah I actually came up with it on my own. But I did just look through the comments and found one posted 2 days before mine that said basically the same thing. Oh well 🤷♂️
@@SODMGGOKU nothing is truly original my friend. i read this piece of wisdom for the first time here, and that's what really matters
@@SODMGGOKU I can see why you would think that. But what do you think is more likely: I read a comment posted 2 days before mine and thought "I'll just steal this and no one will notice" or I thought about it and commented it.
@Joe Villa I honestly don't know if you're trolling
This was a very freaking amazing video! Really enjoyed the artwork that went with the conversation. It felt like it just went with it
I used to be horrible inside.. I used to have no control over myself and it's still an embarrassment to me. I used to do stuff I didn't know I didn't want to do at the time because I was "numb". We live so much of our lives through the subconscious mind just "going with the flow" until that false sense of self (ego) CRASHES. That's when we become spiritually awakened. That's when we can identify the true self and let it manifest in our body and we can become intentional with our actions.
While this has me terrified that it popped up in my feed the day after my brain broke, I am grateful for the time you spent. Thank you.
I think I get the very last part. When you are on fire, don't keep running around thinking that will put the fire out. Just get in the water and let go! Let go of the anxiety of the thing happening to you and just breathe.
In the podcast the non-joe/duncan guy offers a clearer analogy: you’re stumbling in the dark being chased by a monster, bumping into things and tripping over yourself. However if you stop and turn around to face the monster you’ll see it was never actually there.
I understood it as that as well lol
Yeah just stop being anxious bro! It's so simple
Miguel Pereira more like find the patience and courage to face your fears lol
I just turned off all of my you tub notifications after this video
I’m just so glad I watch afterskool, it’s changing my whole life, tells me the truth.
Not ALL the notifications I hope ;)
@@AfterSkool stop leading him on

What a weird response.
They should've made a Joe Rogan episode for the Midnight Gospel
I love this!!! so cool, you guys are doing the real things that this world needs!!
"You're numb to your real life because you're taking in data from everywhere"
Its true
Your art work has came so far my friend, I love all of the colors and smaller details.
This video snapped me in HALF.
Thank you for making this, i needed to see this.
I really feel like this, almost bananas just....keeping it together. This video nearly had me crying.
Duncan is always one of my favourite Rogan guests ✨ Beautiful video as always!
Jedi Bunny yes I always find myself feeling better after their podcasts
I stopped reading the news and swapped it with running 4 days a week. Clear those thoughts out people.
Brilliant
amazing
I don’t watch a lot of people, but this was truly an eye opener. Subscribed.
This was one of my favorites! Thanks for the vid I loved it
Holy shit they need to stop dropping so much truth. I love Duncan Trussell, he’s a lovely human being.
Shut up
This is such a confusing comment... Why should they stop dropping truths, especially if you are enjoying it? Most people would say "everyone should hear this" or "we need more people talking about this" and you're saying they should stop 😳😂
Wait do u need a mental breakdown to get rid of anxiety
@Joe Villa What's wrong with being gay?
yeah, he truly is
This whole video is literally exactly what I’m experiencing right now. I am in a constant existential limbo
Thanks for this info today guys, it was what I needed at this moment. May your work be blessed, continually. Keep healthy, stay safe,

XxxOoo
Wow. Thank you so so so much for this video. Duncan Trussell. You have a new fan in me, that's for sure.
Joe Rogans podcast gave me a lot of insight which gave me a spiritual experience at 3 AM a week ago. I’ve been on cloud 9 since. Thank you JRE and thank you for this video and animation
Well done! I needed that.
That was great.
Just what I needed today , at this moment .
