Can 100% related to the panic attacks. Worst feeling ever. Respect Tavarish for sharing your story.
It's really amazing to hear you all talk about this kind of stuff, to know that alot of us aren't alone when it comes to mental health issues really does help.
Snore, absolutely everybody has mental health issues. EVERYBODY. There’s not one person that hasn’t. zzzzZZZ
@@murphyebass7837no one asked for your opinion Murphy
@@murphyebass7837saying everyone has mental health problems is like saying everyone has physical health issues. Yes people will always have both physical and mental health issues throughout various times of their life, but some will experience it worse than others and it is important to recognise this. It may not be an interesting topic to you, but talking about things that affect the health may be just the thing someone needs in order to feel better about things.
@@ScomaAus some need to get off their asses go out side and exercise, stop the drink or drugs and get the fuck on with it like everyone else. So sick of everyone saying they’re depressed. Stop talking about it and do something about it.

All I can say Alex, Tavarish and all the other car you tubers. The reason why we enjoy your videos is because you are human, your not Hollywood who live in another world. we know that if ever we meet you in the street, we can say hi, how are you, love your content, and we know you will never shut us down, you will respond, even if its only a wave. Its like seeing a long lost mate. We respect your privacy and would never intrude on your private life. Covid made you all famous because of the crap on main stream media, you were our window to normality. Take care all and God bless.
Here here
well said brother !
He's brilliant at replying to his fans too, really respect that 👏
I'm housebound (between bed and couch) after a brain injury at work 3 years ago.
I've missed weddings, funerals, birthdays and everything in between.
I completely understand the mental health that makes you want to quit. For me it's life instead of a job though.
Thanks for making your content. It is genuinely one of the only things I can do now.
It still causes me pain to watch tv but if people can make car videos that interest me it's enough to push past the brain pain and have a moment of "normal"
Big respect to Freddy for being open about all this and for being so respectful in how he discusses his past marriage. Lots of relatable content in here despite not being nearly as successful yet.
Alex. ShedFest was amazing. My son and I have now met you 3 times, and each time, it has been an absolute pleasure. Never worry whether you will disappoint, because we're on this journey with you. Best wishes, James & Jake Onslow.
I also think people who have a fan base think that their viewers want something of them that they aren't or don't want to be. The fact that the likes of Alex, Tavarish and Matt A all seem like decent regular guys is what makes what they are doing so inspiring, and why I for one like meeting or interacting with them.
This. Again and again cheap shitbox builds with relatable incidents are popular. Some RUclipsrs seem to think success is a film crew with fleet of drones flying over the latest supercar in Italy.
Hi, happy to see your channels doing well. Take care
Its sad that 2/3 of the Car Trek guys have had to deal with divorce in recent times. Its good to see Freddy in a good place and the way he has been supporting other youtubers both in the US and across the pond in the UK.
I am not a celebrity, but I can tell you than you need a right partner beside you if you want to do what you love.
Isnt ⅔ of every marriage dealing with divorce at some point?
I imagine a large part of it is that divorce is more likely with people who dedicate all their time to their job. All three of them have pretty drastically increased their fanbase over the past 3-4 years, which increases the demand on them to create more content and takes them away from their marriage. It seems like Ed produces the least content and still has his marriage.
@turbo_brian it does seem that way. Honestly, I'd rather them save their marriages than keep feeling obligated to make content for us.
Are going to release the full version of the pod cast? Or just clips post? I enjoy the full version, and would like to watch it, for the added visuals you add in.
Well done lads for having a grown up chat about this stuff that nearly all of us chaps can relate to. Loving this podcast format
Respect for discussing mental health issues. I think this will resonate with many!
Stop wondering why we love you guys so much...
It's so wonderful to watch genuine enthusiasm from people that love their particular thing.... You guys LOVE cars, so do we, the connection is right there lads 🤗😘❤✌
I love to hear the deep honest introspection from you guys. It's great that you're able and willing to talk so frankly about issues that are so deeply personal. Love all the work you guys put in. ❤
If you do scroll through and read this, It's humbling seeing you guys talk about this stuff. What I know I enjoy from watching you all is how human you all are, the fact you have that voice when you're on stage is good and will keep you honest. But also remember to continue just being yourselves! :)
We're here for the genuiness (if thats a word) of your content. Whenever its posted. Never feel pressured or negative about what or when you do stuff, its all in your head!
Shedfest was cool, i left all you guys alone but i watched freddy making his way from your stand into the museum - absolute top bloke, taking selfies with everyone along the way, recording video messages for people's mates, smiling and saying hi to anyone and everyone. Just keep being yourselves guys - its more than enough 👍
Thank you so much! This has given me great perspective on my own mental health and makes me realise I’m not alone in what happens to me just thank you so much for talking about it❤
Fantastic stuff. Thank you for talking about it openly, I know how much effort it takes, so its greatly appreciated. It helps remind people that they are not alone. It goes a long way to making people feel comfortable getting themselves into a better place and openly talking about something we all struggle with at some points in our lives and something that is normal, especially in traditionally masculine spaces. Its really important as its just as important as your physical health. If the mind and body aren't working together, its not gonna work at all. Strength is all encompassing. Thank you Tavarish for sharing, and thank you Alex and Rory for being supportive!
Well done talking about this it is a good thing to get it out there, I'm 61 this month and I've struggled all my life even from being a kid with anxiety and depression but adhd wasn't a thing years ago but since all this has come to light over the last few years has explained a lot to my behaviour and things how i think and how I feel, I'm on 29 tablets a day for health reasons and hate it, keep up the good work entertaining us and making us feel part of something good ❤
Thank you guys for being so honest about your feelings, the fears, the nerves. It shows thay you are just one of us, which makes you guys even more amazing! Thanks for sharing all this and keep up the great work you are all doing!
Everyone goes through rough times and i can tell you your videos help us get through them! Thank you!
You guys are absolutely smashing it! Love the content and all you guys in general! I look forward to watching all your videos. I’m sure everyone will also agree! Well done to you are your team! I’m looking forward to what the future holds for the channel. Big love to you all!
So great to hear this talked about candidly by you guys. Tavarish had lots of great insight that I 100% identify with, even as a smaller channel. I'm glad he seems to be doing a lot better now 💪
Great to see men talking about this no the feelings
Really nice topic this one, I know I’m not very big on RUclips but instagram I was big at one point until I found myself questioning why I was doing it when I wasn’t enjoying it. I think this topic covers a lot for creative people who try and make what they do work, even making videos and working out what to put in those. There’s so much work involved that isn’t seen, also the anxiety, depression and panic attacks are just a part of it. The hard bit is working out when it’s actually having a bad effect on you and how you bounce back.
Alex, Rory and Taylor do an amazing job! You’re just people at the end of the day but what makes you different is you create content that helps people feel better or get through hardships.
The sad part that I can see is for youtubers it's a fine line between creating content and keeping your mental state out of it. The channels we follow we can see the suffering and struggle everyone goes through, and we don't mind hearing about. You guys are the faces of the video. The fans that are chering you on and want the best for you, the person with a negative comment still watched the video and helped the algorithm.
Guys, thanks about you speaking very openly about your mental situation, it should be much more on display
I went from having pretty good mental health to crippling within the space of a few months in 2020 and still haven't properly recovered - but looking at guys fixing cars which are past it and dealing with brokenness is one of the most encouraging parts of my day - because we all have to face it every day like you guys do when a part doesn't work or you know yourself - it's not in the least bit surprising to me me that you guys would suffer as youtubers - comments must be very hard to deal with - as tavarish correctly stated they focus on a weakness in us - but thank god there's always a possibility of upgrading the suspension and mapping !!! .. and many others have occupational related mental health issues - but tbh tavarish sounds like he might have been narc abused to me - it's got a distinctive fingerprint ( do you suffer confusion ? that's one of the primary markers ) - lots of that around too everybody's narcassism is coming out since the lockdown imho - thank you tavarish for your open book attitude it's very encouraging - the more we all appreciate that we all suffer from these type of things and share our experiences and get it out of the dark room the better - it;s not in the slightest bit. Alex I love the mental health aspect I hope you keep some of these videos in the mix - best of luck growing the chanel
Thank you for the content guys. Mental health is such a big thing these days and thanks for bringing it up.
I can deffinatly say I'm so glad none of you have quit. Even though as you've said "it's just me and a camera". You have all helped us through times, either just a laugh on a crap day, or through extremely difficult times. Thank you all for your Work. Hopefully our paths will cross at some point.
Great chat, l appreciate the lack of ego and honesty about what you do, I get that it is not easy and takes a lot of work to put out even just five minutes of content .
I was one of many thousands of people to say hi to Tavarish at Shedfest. Despite being busy, it was appreciated that he had the time to say hi back. Alex, you were always in the middle of a melee. We had a great day exhibiting and worth the drive up from Western Gloucestershire
To me you are both a role model for those people who are thinking whether or not they should just have a go at what ever it is. 😊 Thank you both.
Absolutely love everything you and the guys do. The understanding and pitfalls of buying cars and loving different models. The whole finding a gem amongst all the disasters out there is awesome. And you have a great bunch of guys around you 👍
Great video guys. Keep up the great work, keep going. Watching your videos for me, takes my mind away all life worries and hassles. So with that, thank you.
Well done chaps. Great insight plus, supporting those who struggle each day with life for what ever reason.
Top Man Freddie, having suffered very similar stuff recently it's great to hear you talk about it, I know how difficult it is, firsthand. However, there is light at the end of the tunnel.
I think this is one of the *best* and most relatable vids from Alex and Rory and Freddy. This is true “behind the scenes” material and I know I’ve been really curious about these elements of a car RUclipsr’s life. Thanks guys for being so honest and open.
Thank you to you both about talking about this. I’m a hotel manager and a relatively happy guy but lately, this has been hard managing how I feel about the stress levels. It’s life, it’s great but sometimes it’s hard.
I can honestly say, this is the best channel for men ever. It’s outrageously positive and I’m so, so grateful to you for doing what you do.
Well done lads. Good conversation and so thankful for all you do.
This is your best podcast yet. Some really valid and important points. I bumped into you coming out of the loo in the museum and it was one of those really awkward moments of wrong place to say hello and then you were grabbed by a couple of fans. 😂😂. What you and Freddy said about imposter syndrome is understandable but I think you both need to realise that you are both doing what so many people do on their driveways and in garages and you give us a voice and an identity. More importantly, you're ordinary guys like us who are passionate about the cars we build. Shedfest was the most diverse but fantastic show and I loved the fact that it showed off so many people's creativity. Keep up the good work.
Just watching his P1 episodes, all I can say is eye-opening😲😲
Next project for AutoAlex😉😲😲😂
I feel you @tavarish The anxiety I suffer gives me the feeling of impending doom. Its the worst feeling to have and unless you have suffered from it you have absolutely no idea. Unfortunately I also suffer from depression, OCD and suicidal thoughts. Thankfully after many years going through this I have learned to manage them all although sometimes its so bad you have to ride the wave until it moves on. Great to hear you talk about it. 👍
Such a relatable video, shows that your heroes are real genuinely good people who truly understand
Very important to have someone one can talk about one's feeling! Relaxes the mind. Problems shared a much more the halved.
This is a very important video and message, thank you for publishing this.
Fully sympathise regrading the anxiety, it sucks the description of it being like waiting for the other shoe to drop constantly is spot on. When I was really suffering from it then I'd get panic attacks at work that would last all day for no good reason. As a contractor, I had to just push on and keep it hidden from the rest of the office because I couldn't afford to not work. I'd get them in the middle of the night and get night sweats. Just horrid. But it is always good to hear big names talking honestly about it as it really helps to know that nobody's life is perfect, we all have our struggles in one form or another. Never really been into Tavarish, largely because I just didn't really know about him, but the more I see him on other channels the more I realise I've been missing out on his stuff and need to catch up on it!
Love and respect for talking about this ❤
This is amazing. Gives me a whole new perspective and appreciation for content creators. Love both your channels, thanks for everything you guys do. ❤💪🤘
This was a really great discussion. Many thanks guys 👍
Keep going, and dont be insecure. You are doing a great job. Love your videos. many greetings from Serbia!
Dude, tavarish you inspire people! I meet you in Chicago at Alxe show, and I told you! WRENCH EVERYDAY! that stuck in my head from the moment i heard it. I got up off the couch, and fixed my old skool. I go to car shows, show it off, and tell people, listening to tavarish, he will make you get up, and get your .... together! Don't ever think your up there, and no one hears you! That's crap! Keep on dude. You are being herd!
Mental health and RUclips are the worst things to combine, it takes real strength to overcome the sometimes horrendous troll comments as they can eat away at you,
Your building something great, keep at it !
Guys this conversation was phenomenal. And hearing Tavarish being so humble and honest about his struggles is commendable. It’s great to see this being talked about. And I hear ya on the ADHD. Lovely work x
I really hope you start releasing the whole podcast as a long form video. Great stuff. Ep01 was great as well
I met all of these guys at shedfest and I wanted to act cool and normal but the fan boy made me a nervous mess. But all of you were so awesome and humble and signed my poster and took selfies. I love and share the enthusiasm for cars which is why we’re here watching and subscribing. I try not to put people on a pedestal but I love how they help me escape for 20-30 minutes at a time and take me along for the ride on fun adventures with them. No matter how big or small the build or project is, I feel like for those few minutes I’m part of the team and that’s a good feeling. Its inspired me to get another project which I haven’t done for years.
Enjoy what you do and people will keep watching and supporting and enjoy the journey with you. Big love from a fellow fan of cars
All i can say is im grateful to you guys. You give a boy with Epilepsy hope because i can’t drive but im driving through you. Please show an old Lexus though. Keep it up.
Alex, tavarish, Rory shedfest was in the UK and ONLY 5000 people could show up, image coming to tour in every country in the world. Image all us, your fans from every country coming to you. That's big ! Keep up the amazing work, excited for the new challenge.
Just keep doing what your doing. Health first though! … and when times do get tough or might not be tickety-boo then take a break! Much respect to you all! Great video!
The Dream Stressful job. 👍 Thank you for a great talk with your walls down and you are all doing a great job and making killer content. 🤙
@Tavarish I’m in that place at the moment after catching Covid, what you said hit hard but also opened my eyes to what is wrong with me - now got the inspiration to get out and start a fresh - first thing I’m doing is getting to Petrolheadonism next week!! Feeling crap or good.
alex met you last year at the nec, it was brilliant your videos really get me through the week 🙂
Keep up the great work Alex, you and your team are amazing. 👍😊
I've met Alex a few times and he did not disappoint at all. Sound guy on and off camera. Exactly what we need more of. Keep it going 👏
That is because you are all genuine likeable people who we can relate to! You are not these arrogant fake creators who live in a bubble and detached from every day 'Joe public' creating false scenarios for views. I watch all of your videos because you are down to earth and genuinely entertaining to watch. Please keep doing what you are doing and pay no attention to the odd few who have to try to spoil it . The discussion about mental health and the struggles that you face must have been a difficult subject, but again you talked in a frank open and honest way that highlighted the struggles that we all face in one way or another. Please keep doing what you are doing as it does have a positive impact on so many people.
Im glad that Tavarish is so candid here, im glad that he seems to be doing better too
Fantastic talk. Very humbling and a hugely important subject. Keep it up Alex and gang. Watching from Malta. Should do an episode over here at some point as it's the ultimate place for people loving their sheds also and a tidy BMW. 😂
The spiral of dispair. When your just taken over and overwhelmed with dread. It happens to the best of us.
Alex you mentioned about what people think when they meet you. When I met you (you did my dad's GT-Four) you were really warm friendly and genuine. Absolutely lovely experience apart from Roary mistaking my Alphard for a Ssanyong. 😂😂😂. You bring real joy and laughs to a lot of people, keep up the good work and follow what you enjoy. 👍👍👍
You guys should never underestimate how much you help others just by doing what you do.
Watching this stuff, my garage and cars are my escape from all the crap... keep doing your thing 👌🏽
For the first time, I shall comment. What a breath of fresh air, to actually hear you say that you read most of the comments. As for the odd one, really, they aren't worth worrying about, jealousy comes in many forms, and that's all it is. You guys do a fantastic job, and bring many laughs to thousands of us true followers. Keep up the great work guys. Love it all.
Thank you, great chat guys
Rock on, love this convo
I got the pleasure of meeting you, Rory, Taylor and Gareth at the London car show at Wembley and you guys were not a disappointment thank you for the laughs 😊 if you remember Alex, Gareth took over 30 photos of us using my phone 😂😂
Mental health is health. Good work putting this on your channel, Alex. It's ok to not be ok
I had Hubnut come round as I offered him my Fiat Marea 1.9 JTD Weekend, he did a video about getting it started. It has been sitting on my drive for over 3 years, it started with no trouble once he had figured the Topdon out. As Ian was tinkering with it I went in and made him a brew, which you don't see in the video. Anyway one person made a comment on his youtube saying the owner ( me ) has left you to do everything.. This got to me as I had been helping him, had to cut half my hedge down so I could open the bonnet open.. So I understand why one person's comment can stick in your mind.. Anyway your channel is brilliant, if you want to see the video of the Marea its on Hubnut's channel and quite funny I think
Really good to hear this conversation. Men are just supposed to grind on, don't complain, earn the cheddar. It's hard man. Thanks for this podcast, I think I needed it.
Great honesty guys !!
What you guys all do elements off that we miss - the crazy bits of the old Top Gear that we miss, but with current style and relevance - the format works and it's working for you. The bits I love are the getting things sorted and the stuff that was always behind the scenes on Top Gear, preparing, fixing upgrading what was done - the technical bits. I spent nearly 20 years fixing my own, friends and my wife's cars until I decided at 45 that my body had had enough of crawling around outside on cold dark days and nights fixing things and I made my wife get a lease car with a service package! I still have my own car I love to work on (aside from the company EV) which is a very late model Saab 9-3 twin turbo (came with a chip programmed to in excess of 200BHP somewhere) which just lets me tinker and prep it to go back on the road. I watch your shows and dream of picking up a deal like the ones you do lol. Keep on keeping on but remember there is also more to life than pleasing the people, and that old trope you can please some people all the time but you can't please everyone all the time - just something you have to remind yourself off - and can your life exist without our affirmation...? yes, it can, so just enjoy the ride whilst it stays fun :)
Loving these genuine conversations
You definitely helped me when I was in hospital getting knee surgery Alex that was about 18 months ago now trying to work things out with wife
My wife is a nurse and she says exactly the same; she can get 19 people that are unbelievably grateful and say how caring and wonderful she is, then that 20th patient will be abusive and rude and that’s all she’ll fixate on for days.
It’s difficult not to think about the bad stuff, but try and take an objective step back - everyone has bad days, chances are that either the person posted the negativity has their own $hit going on, or that the video just caught them on a bad day.
You guys are great - never lose sight of the massive base of support you have, and hopefully you get to continually enjoy what you do and share with us 😃👍
It makes me happy that men are talking about and helping other men about mental health
Anther side i love about Tavarish.. down to earth but also can convey his thoughts on a very high level. Both emotionally and intellectually.
Great episode..thanks for sharing ❤
Its quite simple really, you guys are more real and relatable than anything on TV or other mainstream media. You've emerged through hard work, passion and authenticity and you understand your platform. Moreover, you are all humble and vulnerable when discussing the reality of its impact on you and your lives. You are the voice of new media, which is why you carry the 'influencer' monicker which you probably don't even like ....
You guys are doing a great job with this podcast, love watching it instead of listening to it. So fun to get to know all of you / your guests better!
@Rory - could you have Alex / guests / yourself talk about their thoughts on how a normal person like me / anybody else in the audience could start a RUclips channel? Tips, tricks, the do's and don'ts etc. Would be amazing to get some motivation and insight!
You guys have the only podcast that I've ever actually wanted to listen to outside of the singular smoking tire with Doug.
Didn't expect you two to be so emotionally intelligent and aware of mental health issues.
Kudos. We need to teach our young adults more about emotional intelligence.
Love the real rawness in this video! First class guys. As for the haters? Sling em! Alex and crew are fab and my go to you tube car guys/banter/entertainment! (As a former Clarkson era top gear fan!)
I love you guys honest ❤
Please stay as you are keep your feet firmly in the carpet pedal flat to the floor.
Your all truly brilliant and the best bit is, its not fake its how you guys are n that is truly special and rare in today's world
Big love guys
It’s impressive how much tavarish (and I guess you too Alex) can’t take a compliment, or use a compliment to describe who he is or how he is. Like he’s being super humble, and he goes “I guess it makes you somewhat humble. Or I guess you come across as humble.” DUDE! Take the fucking compliment!! 😅 It’s sad… but I totally get it though. I really struggle to step back and look at my accomplishments as well. I’m never satisfied and fixate on failures or things to improve.
Thank you for talking about it. It’s nice to hear successful people admit it. It makes us (at least, me) feel more “normal” in a way. It’s a relief
How refreshing. Blokes talking about this sort of stuff, it helps. Love your videos, keep it up!
This was great to watch.
What you all do entertains people, maybe mainstream media has moved on.
Don’t listen to the negative s**t unless you are actually learning something from it.
Please release the
Long form
Podcasts not cut into 10 - 15 chapter videos
I'm glad you're talking about this. Ego vs Id. You're good guys.
😮😮😮
Bro!
I rewinded 20 seconds and hyperfocused...
That's how good this video is for me ❤
Good adult conversation guys...really enjoy what you do...keep at it....
Thank you for talking about mental health and how outsiders can think that you are fine when things just are not right. Your friends and supporters would rather hear "I'm not in a good place right now" then have you or anyone push too far.
