'I am an adult child of an alcoholic.
'For me, one of the biggest shifts over time has been the slow realisation that I am not alone.
'But when something has been that ingrained for so long, that realisation doesn’t come easily.

You going to take this mockery, @Arsenal ? Or are you going to stand up, show some bottle, and fight for this Title like it means more than life or death?
Just seen @dapperlaughs at the Wyvern in Swindon tonight. Apart from the brilliant comedy, what he does for Men’s mental health and his own sobriety is absolutely inspiring and lifesaving as witnessed tonight with the guy in the front row who’s life he saved . Emotional 🙏🏻❤️

Watching this interview clip back from @londonbeautlife gave me a lump in my throat.
I didn’t recognize myself. Not just because I look a million times healthier, but because three years ago, there’s no way I could’ve spoken like this. My brain didn’t work this way.
Before sobriety, I was drowning in anxiety, worry, and self-doubt. Every time I stepped in front of a camera, every time I spoke to someone, I’d hide behind a character—usually Dapper Laughs. I wasn’t listening to the questions or connecting with people. I was just trying to be funny because I was too scared to be me.
My message is clear: change is possible, accountability is key, at Men & Their Emotions we are dedicated to reshaping vulnerability as strength.
I’ve been sober for two years and ten months & 19 days, and sharing my journey online wasn’t just a choice—it was a necessity. As a content creator, I knew that if I wanted to stick with sobriety, I had to make it my life. I started talking about my struggles with mental health and addiction, not because I had all the answers, but because being open is what saved my life.
I had no idea my words would touch so many people. For that, I’m proud. To anyone going through something tough right now: you will get through it. And when you do, your story can help someone else. Keep going.
Seeing myself in this video, speaking my truth so clearly, and hearing that it’s helping others—it fills my heart with happiness. I’m proud of the man I see here. He’s real, he’s raw, and he’s not he’s not afraid anymore.
I owe every bit of this change to my incredible wife. Thank you for pushing me away when I needed to face myself, and for standing by me, even when you were still hurting, so I could find my way to recovery. You believed in me when I couldn’t believe in myself.
To anyone reading this, know that your struggles don’t define you—they shape you. Be honest with yourself, take accountability, and don’t be afraid to show your real self to the world. Your vulnerability is your power.
Keep fighting, because the person you’re becoming is worth it ❤️
