Dapper Reacts to Your Comments and the Future of the Podcast
Dan reacts to the comments made on his recent YouTube videos in this slightly different episode. Dan also takes the opportunity to let you know his future plans for the podcast and how he plans to incorporate more humour and light-heartedness in between the difficult subjects discussed and how he will be asking Kirk Norcross to co-host too!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The comments surrounding how Dan has inspired others to start their sober journey are what drives him to continue to talk openly about his struggles, even though he knows it has cost him work and impacted his career There are many people out there that won’t realise they have an addiction problem, yet it is pulling their life apart. The ying and yang to life means that if you use unnatural substances to feel high, you will feel unnaturally low too. The positive about going through difficult times in life is you then have something to give to other people, to help them, experience Alcohol can often be a problem for those addicted to other substances because it changes your thinking and rationale making you more likely to decide to take other substances after drinking. You can choose to go sober as soon as you realise you may have issues, you don’t have to get to your lowest point or wait for your life to be ruined before making the decision. Dan has some very supportive friends in regards to going sober. Sadly he has lost some friends along the way, When you go sober there is grief, for your old life and for the people you lose too. It’s hard to recover from being a people pleaser but to be happy and at peace you have to realise that you can’t please everyone and not everyone will like you. Dan was going to release some content around Philip Schofield but after seeing Phil’s video about wanting to take his life he rethought the content. You can’t have a large social media following or YouTube channel without having to deal with trolls, it’s something Dan has learnt to accept. Humour is subjective and should always be protected, even if other people take offence.
