"If you don't give other people in your life the opportunity to lift you up, then you're making a call you shouldn't be making." Goddamn that's profound. LOUDER FOR PEOPLE IN THE BAAAAACK

Cage is just as gorgeous as always I love him in interviews. So real. I'm now like 10 months sober and continuing. 🖤

It's funny that Billy in this interview says he "made up his mind to have nothing to do with drugs or alcohol" but doesn't consider taking handfuls of LSD to have a negative impact on his life or emotional wellbeing.

Nigga, you forget you wrote the leak bros album with tame one? I you might say you weren't glorifying drug use at that time and more writing down your experiences in an altered state. Honestly and it sucks to say, but that's was my favorite cage knowing the everlong struggle of knowing you can escape it all in a millisecond. Shit, em even wanted to be slim shady when you were actually truly living the mentally disturbed persona he glorified. You in OG in hip hop in my opinion, man. Don't let anyone ever tell ya differently. That shit let me know someone out there was going through a similar thought process as myself. You, Eyedea, Joe Budden and John Frusciante were the only ppl I've ever shared that experience of borderline insanity to most with, but you guys so gifted. I just had my first year clean off opiates in over decade and it's been the biggest weight off my shoulder that's ever been lifted. I know that real monster is me though as you said the drugs were never the real problem. Too many cop out to that in the new socially glorified rehabilitation phase of the journey. I hope you find or have found something worth dying for..

I never got the stigma of corgan being an ego maniac he seems very humble and down to earth here

love you bro

Thats edward furlong

I went to my first fall out boy show last night, and I was so happy afterwards that it's like everything clicked into place and I have a new perspective. I've been trying to cope with my mental health problems on my own and I've been lying to hide them from everyone around me for years. I could be so much happier if I just ask for help. I know this is a pretty old video, but I just wanted to share. wish me luck!

Someone actually gets it

Andy .... is so over this shit 😂

Billy is my hero. He describes my life better than I can with my own words, and I already knew that before watching this video. This is the best video I have ever seen, I needed this. Thank you a lot for uploading.

It wasn't the adivan. It was the c+ke.

That bit at the end when he said that it's paralysing like you can't leave the house and it immobilises you hit hard because that's exactly it and it's so hard to get other people to understand if they've never experienced it for themselves they will always think you're exaggerating or faking it but you would do anything to not feel it and be the way that you are anymore and just be normal and have normal thoughts and emotions that don't impact your life so much

Pete went real gemini in the end.

Love Cage!!

Sad eyes...

Best work he did was with Smut Peddlers

Before i even finished the video i realized hum hallelujah was about his suicide attempt. It made my jaw drop. Love falloutboy and pete so much

"Hell's Winter" and "Depart From Me" are still some of my favorite music.

Thanks for talking about it, Pete. Genuinely, I feel so many of these same things, and have since 2005 or whatever. And I do feel alone. But then I go to a Fall Out Boy show and he touches my hand and for a split second there's a throughline of connection from the beginning to now, and then it doesn't matter how vast, empty and uncaring this place is, because _someone_ gets me.

his experiences make me feel heard

One thing i realised is that you dont need to take it out on your own band members i know many people who was abused sexually including myself but i never use that as an excuse to treat other people like shit your music is beautiful your musicians are beautiful but your attitude towards your own friends can be shit

really heavy insightful interview

Love smashing pumpkins, love billy, case closed❤

Barely recognized him. I didn’t know he ever got so thin. What’s up with that?

I just found this and I’m thankful I did. I began recalling previous abuse I had masked for so long and I’ve had problems with emotion regulation. However, watching this displayed that I do need help and I can’t battle these demons on my own. Thank you Billy

666 likes. I won't add one more for that fact

💔

This whole discussion explains the song "Muzzle". He is a true artist

He looks like on Suger.. I know that myself back then.. Extreme Weight loss...

Been there.

I first hurd Chris palko like 12 years ago and he has been a huge inspiration and help in my life guiding me through some of the darkest times in my life "rite" "rite rite"

Clears throat:.... I used to be a little boy

I’m so glad he completed his transition from chemo patient to egg

4:12 broke my heart omg. like fob (and mcr) literally saved my life on several occasions. i don’t think i’d be here today if it weren’t for them. and knowing that so many of my idols have gone through similar things makes me feel a bit better but it also breaks me because i love them so much and i’d hate anyone else to feel like this. music made me find beauty in the world and even though i don’t see it in myself, i see beauty in pretty much everything else. music changed, took over but most importantly saved my life. i’ll forever have a soft spot in my heart for this interview.

I was addicted to that poison shit OxyContin for 8yrs,they were the most awful,dark years of my life,I will never touch that evil shit ever again.😥

He looks like he's sick here.

I relate to Billy on abuse I was abused physically mentally sexually by people who were abusing alcohol and drugs. It’s a great big fucked up world we live in!

I just saw an interview where he said he made up his depression and mental issues- This guy flip flops and plays the victim

Take your Addy and shut up.

Thank you Vinny for taking the lead and raising awareness to these difficult predicaments so many people deal with. Hope you have gotten better and continue to recover.

Ron, I love you man! Take care and be well!

Cage being brutally honest but then again he always has been

NEED MOVIES FOR THE BLIND 2!!!

Is this around the same time he reconnected with Courtney Love? I feel like that always seem to coincide with his major depressions, frankly people only connect with her when they are at their lowest (Cobain, Corgan, even Fielding). In Billy’s case I wonder if he was drawn to her damage and just got pulled too far down. Anyway, his words here are so profound I’m glad that he pulled through this and that he seems to be in a great place now.

Years ago this helped me immensely. I since gotten on medication, got married, and live a stable happy life. Till this day a lot of what Billy says here I find myself saying to others during their dark times. 33 is my wedding song, but it wouldn’t be if it wasn’t for Billy, I couldn’t thank him enough.

Cage 🔥

Never liked or trusted this guy. Also his music isn’t just from the heart, he puts too much thought into what he believes people want rather than what he really feels. He’s not a “from the heart” kinda guy, he thinks commercially and tried to guess what will make him money based on what he believes will be the next sell no point. Never liked his music or trusted him as a person. Imo lol

i love this silly little dude and his y little band so much

In 2005 everyone wanted to be Pete Wentz.. Except for Pete Wentz.
