James English Talks About His Drug And Gambling Addiction And Why He Made The Changes.

I spent two years of my life addicted to a drug called Viagra, it was the hardest two years of my life.

James I just wanted to thankyou, I had a rough upbringing aswell. I always thought gambling was a quick fix after never having money. Im 34 now and ive finally realised its been the cause of all my problems for the last 15+ years. After stumbling upon your podcasts a few months ago you have given me the inspiration to turn my life around. Im a single dad and I now have a completely different and positive outlook going forward, to give me and my son a better life. Keep up the good work 👍

Sounds exactly like me. Was a wrongern in my 20s..violence, steroids, cocaine, womanising, bankruptcy, alcoholism. All comes crashing down. Then you either are reborn or carry on into hell on earth. Was a long road back and I didnt have a spiritual awakening until 10 years later. Which was totally unexpected. And very painful..but has opened my eyes to the world. I'm glad I was blessed like you by higher powers to follow this path and help others . Up at 5am too Read Meditate Wim hoff Cold shower Get to work feel amazing

"if your dreams don't scare you, there not big enough", what a great saying. 👍👍👍

Im coming up to 4 weeks clean off cocaine this friday. This video james is going to spur me on more. Thanks mate💪💪

Now I understand better why James has become the nation's favorite podcast! A very real and insightful Life experience that he shares candidly in here. Like him the book that changed my life was "The Power of Now" (and all the other books by Eckhart Tolle) so I can really relate. And Elliot Reeves does a great job at interviewing a great interviewer!!!

Guys got balls to explaining his situation like this. Well done James 💪🏼

What a motivational speech james. Im turning 30 next sunday for the past 10 years ive drank most weekends an took charlie. 2019 was going to be my changing year i really believe i can do it.

Ive lost 3 best mates to suicide in the lasf couple years i want to change for my family and ypur speech has giving me an edge an belief thank you sir

i respect people so much who can turn it around ... great strength fella

Amazing interview James, the best thing to come out of this quarantine bollox is finding your channel 👍

At 46 years old, and being addicted to cocaine for almost 20years plus.. I think I’ve just received great inspiration to turn my life around.. need to start clearing the fog to see everything clearer Good luck to all who try to break free 🙏🏻

I am 10 years clean of heroin and crack and have never felt better. Will always be in recovery and each day is sometimes a challenge to get through however I have now gained the skills to get through. Made some special friends along the way. Addiction is so so deep. Often others don’t understand it but it is about the only subject that I know can be talked about for hours and hours and still only touch the surface. God bless you James. I totally get you. You are a good , deep man xxxxx

you don't need to see the full staircase to take the first step. Liking that

What an insight, I absolutely love this interview. So down to earth and real. I have sat at my desk all afternoon looking at motivational speakers. Definitely hit a nerve - as someone who had lost themselves and i am trying to claw the old me back it really helps to know that there is someone who gets it. From the outside I may have a lot of blessings but the mental torture I put myself through day in day out is cripling and ruining relationships with those closest to me. I need to sort my shit out lol

His teeth are brighter than my future

Spot on James!!! this has properly hit home and is so true of so so many young men out there and with the rate of suicide and biggest cause of death under 45's this is very relatable! There is a void in so many people we try and cover up and drown and it doesnt go away by chance! Brilliant work thanks alot keep up the good work alot of people need to hear this!

Man it’s mad how much I can relate to the stuff James is saying as I’ve been down a similar path myself .Top man with a great mindset!

Straight talking from someone who's lived it and is now living life love it 💗
