Is a Million Subscriber Play Button Bullet Proof? (Sober Vlog pt.4)

You shot 1 million subscribers, that's dope

When YouTube treats you unfairly.

At least the "Scarce is gay" plate is safe.

Rusty is the only person who gets crazier when he's sober

I liked punk rock Luigi talking to me about drinking for 10 minutes at the end.

The Devil, next ep? Cannot wait!

Florida man with three weeks long withdrawal: "What if I...shoot my YouTube button to pieces?"

something that helps me a lot, Rusty, is that I tend to find that I just want something "more interesting" to drink than say, water or juice. Pounding a case of sparkling water every night REALLy helped me alleviate beer cravings cause mentally it almost registers like the same thing. Just something that helped me, no idea if you've tried it.

Looks like Rusty did something Demolition Ranch didn't have the courage to do it.

From one addict to another. Cutting my grass was one of those little things that helped me get sober. Take pride in how good your yard looks.

I love how the thumbnail had “Bullet proof?!” right next to the play button absolutely riddled with bullet holes

As the series that inspired me to try and stay clean on my sleep schedule, It has since been a good... 17? 18 days since I saw your first 3 day sober video? And since then, I managed to go 2 whole weeks with a consistent sleep schedule. Bed at 2am, wake up at 11am. 7-9 hours at the same time each night, and if I woke up early that meant I had so much more time in the day to just... do things. Almost a week ago now I uploaded a video I spent several hours editing. And it is by far the best one I've put out to date, I feel so confident now because I want to continue making more of that type of content, now that I've found what I want to actually produce on this platform, and not only that having people who genuinely enjoyed and watched the stuff I produced. The good sleep is what kept me sharp enough to be able to make that video in the first place. Unfortunately, it's not all good. Like how you were tempted with that one drink Rusty, the last couple of nights I've been slipping. Started when I accidentally stayed up till 6am, and ever since then my circadian rhythm has been out of whack. I hope to fix it tonight though, I don't plan on beating myself up over this because the longer and more often I stay consistent, the easier it will be for me to just not stay up too late. Thanks for these videos Rusty. You're a great inspiration. Now that I'm starting from day 1 again, let's hope I can break 2 weeks this time eh?

0:12 Let me rephrase that: Shooting guns is something that you absolutely only should do if you are sober.

It's really cool seeing you grow as a person. Wish you all the best, Rusty!

Alcoholism. It's not how much you drink, it's the relationship you have with alcohol.

4:11 Well, Mr.Cage, I'd have to say you nailed that proprietary 'thumbs forward' pistol grip extremely well, especially when you think of yourself as a man who isn't too familiar with firearms and hasn't shot much. Good job.

even though it doesnt affect me as much, i know that this series is/has going to help tonnes of people with their own addiction problems. Thank you

1:23 holding a lit cigarette right by the tannerite... smart

Your closing statements here are brilliant my dude. You hit the nail on the head. And the most important thing to realize is: Even the worst of the worst alcoholics ultimately don't have a problem with alcohol: They have a problem with something deep inside themselves they are trying to escape from. An alcoholic can get sober and still be miserable if they don't work on the issue inside themselves too. Its phenomenon often referred to as being a "dry drunk". So really alcoholism and addiction is more about what's going on inside yourself, than it is about what or how much you are putting into your body. You have to fix that spiritual malady inside yourself, to not only get sober, but be happy as well. It comes hand in hand though. But you're 100% right. Someone may only drink a few glasses of wine every night, but if it is to fulfill the need to escape or avoid your problems, than its still as big of a problem as someone who drinks a whole handle a day.
