That was awesome

Awesome testimony.. Keep going pal❤

Still haven't came out though....

THANK YOU! This was absolutely the one thing I needed to hear today! Bless you! The video to Justin, about the desert and the kites, I cried my eyes out! I'm not into drugs or alcohol. But I'm struggling with anxiety and depression . The song FEAR helped me so much! I don't believe in God but I do believe in Justin and in you! Thank you so much for being you Steven!😍😍🙏🙏🙏🙏

4 years later, I hope you're still ok. And thanks for made me cry man!

blue october changed my life

Goosebumps Justin is awesome 😎 Love 💕 Blue October ❤️

Steven, So Beautiful - May you and your family be continually blessed.💗My son was in an awful depression, and I told him that I understood depression and fear and I also understood there's a way to get through it. I played the song Fear for him and said, "One day that is how you are going to feel." I cried my eyes out a couple of years later when he sent the song to me in a text message and simply said, "you were right."

So sweet. Justin is such and inspiration for all who will listen!

Yes . Love this band. Just saw them. First time I ever saw them was in like 2001 such an evolution. I'm so happy for your journey. I lost my dad from alcohol... Worst moment of my life . I'm so happy your kids will continue to have you. GOD BLESS

Fucking awesome. Thanks for sharing. I found your video looking to see if others felt the same because every person I know just doesn’t get it and thinks it’s just radio music. But then again non of my circle are addicts (recovering) besides me. I too found them at the right time…And it’s not Justin, it’s you man. You made the choice

Amen Steve welcome to the B.0 family!

Justin has saved my life numerous times. No other lyricist has put my heart in nto words better. The emotions Justin puts in his voice is unparalleled! Thank you sir for sharing this. And thank you Justin/blue October for your contribution to the universe.

This man has changed my life as well. Justin writes songs that speak for me. My all-time favorite band, because they touch lives and hearts.💙

This is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

This is Love, and it's contagious! Amen.

Thank you Steven for sharing your story....bless you...may your joy continue

I lost ya when u talked about goin to look for some rocks lol!!! im just kidding, but half way not. i love the outdoors, n hiking n exersice in the sticks, but i hate looking for rocks lol. its a buzz kill for me, to each their own! im on my own journey currently, 35, alone with my dog in a small 65ft 1970's trailer home, and trying to get sober. im glad i came across ur video, makes me feel like im not alone, even if just for a few minutes

Wow, Awesome, that made me cry. 👊,, I love his music also 😍

What an entirely awesome action of making this video. Bravo to you & as I see this video is 4 years old so here is hoping you are now celebrating your 5 year sobriety birthday ! Beautifully stated moments of gratitude.

Bravo , salute .....

Life is a journey. Emotionally resilient individuals "bounce" back up, but they never really go back or bounce back, hopefully they move forward, carefully, methodically, and purposefully.

Same here. I saw them open for the goo goo dolls in Houston, 8/30/22. When I heard Justin say "Happy, joyous and free" I knew what he meant. Ive not had a drink since may 4, 2020 he just reinforced my love for life and sobriety.

I know this video was a while ago but has justin seen this video? or does he at least know how appreciative of him you are? Because i think he would love too see how much he's helped people. It's always nice to know that you're appreciated😊and i was tearing up from your story but it also made me smile at the end and never lose that smile that you have! justin is truly an amazing person and singer. I hope that you're doing well, Stay strong!

Yayyyy I was at that show!!!

Bro thanks you are so good!! You are not alone!

Keep on keep on Steven!!!

thank you for opening your life and story to me. You will never know just how desperately I needed to hear this. bless you my brother 🤗

How're u doing these days still sober I'm hoping but not sure since no more videos

Just happened upon your video. I hope you're still doing well!

Hope you are still doing well. 💙

this has truly touched me, as much as the music has. I needed to hear your message, so please know you inspire as well. I lost my dad to cirrhosis of the liver, 6 years ago. I was the one to take care of him right up to his last second alive. he was my best friend, (I am a drummer, guitarist) my biggest fan. and he was my home, my safe place. he bought me my first guitar, cut me out of a barbed wire fence when I wrecked his 86 Harley Davidson sportster into it. taught me how to fix cars and be independent. however, we were each other's boozing buddies. we both have been alcoholics since the age of 12-13. I went through some horrible things and never really learned to cope. we attended AA together, I sobered up for a good 4-5 years. we bonded in those meetings, we of course were closer than anybody I know for father & daughter but leaving that relationship outside every Saturday and Sunday morning, we saw each other as I saw you in your message today. after he passed I crawled into a bottle of whiskey and have struggled to get out of it for 6 years. I married someone that was a con artist she was poisoning my food and alcohol to keep me in induced state 0 of confusion so that she could continue to drain my bank account steal my inheritance my identity cheat on me and she saved the most painful act for last she abandoned me and ghosted me and I couldn't have felt more broken more despair then I never felt and I learned in those meetings to stop wondering if it could get any worse because when you ask it does and I thought to myself what did I do to deserve this of all the things to deserve this and it was in that moment that I could hear my dad telling me you're not alone you're being carried through this you were a blessing for someone else it just doesn't have a good soul and you have to let go and let God and instead of picking up a bottle and getting completely tanked and wrecking my car or just getting reckless or waiting for that so-called whiskey lullaby I had much like you that moment I shifted my focus I started to cut more and more back on even just drinking a beer I don't drink beer when I barbecue anymore I actually don't drink because of covid we can't go to AA meetings and the meetings I used to go to or in the building that I went to they shut them down and I don't think I would have been able to go without my dad anyways but as a child I can tell you the effect that you were going to have on your children just with that change and and that kite memory is going to be as important to them as it is to you and eventually they'll have an aha moment we're going to look at you differently one day and it won't be in a bad way it'll be in a very good way it's truly inspiring to hear what you had to say and it was definitely something I needed to hear and I thank you so know that the music inspires it really does and it is a lot of us it's a lot of way to express emotion and to get the talk so that we can move on and heal but what you said your story affected me more so than maybe that of one I would have heard in one of those meetings and or maybe you know and we could have crossed paths and I could have heard your story and it would have affected me then but it was definitely meant to affect me now so thank you for posting your story God bless and you truly do inspire

Those old songs. That darkness, that pain. It is what I live for. I am so glad that these new songs help so many people but it is those old songs that save me. They remind me of where I was so I can appreciate where I am. I learned to use where I am to keep me going forward. Learn to love the person you are even if you have a ways to go to reach the person you want to be...

I hope Justin saw this.......you are very moving and you deserve the world

Much love to you Steve.

No words….just Wow!

Congratulations 🎊 🥳 🎊 👏 👏 🥰🥰🥰💖💖💖💖💖X💯!!!!!

Thanks for your video. I just so happened to really need to hear this today. I've been taking an inordinate amount of benadryl every single day for about 1 1/2 years, as well as a lot of gabapentin, just as a way of helping myself to feel something. But I realized that all I've been doing is bringing myself back up to zero. I think the main reason I've done a lot of this stuff (I was taking really hard stuff before too) not because I was trying to mask any pain... it's cause sometimes the world is a but too "normal" that I don't know how else to live in it. But that all changes today. I hope I can finally let all my vices go once and for all. Maybe then I'll actually be able to remember my life. Also, I didn't realize till you said this, but maybe the reason for all these unhealthy vices is cause I was an extremely difficult person growing up. Maybe I've been trying to bury these thoughts and feelings. Great video

He speaks from real life exsperiences and that pours into his lyrics he is sooooo amazeing

Great

Music is therapy and meds all of it

It was an honor to listen to this man! Tears in my eyes

Loved your comments

I love this band! Very real!

I saw Blue October less than 24 hours ago...Justin and Co are still having that same effect....would be nice to nice to know now its almost 4 years on how you are doing Steven ?

This has me in tears right now. From the first time I heard Justin sing, I knew he was different. With every song I listened to it just pulled the pain right from my chest that I had been carrying since I was younger. I’ve watched so many of his interviews and said I definitely had to find a way to go see him in person. I finally get that chance on April 28 in Austin Tx. Thank you so much for sharing your story with everyone Steve. I am proud of your journey!
