thank you to Better Help for sponsoring this video
Alpha reads from his senior high school yearbook: "I always wear a smile because anything else would make me have to explain what you wouldn't understand anyway." In this video men's style, grooming, fitness and lifestyle expert, Aaron Marino of IAmAlphaM, AaronMarino, and Pete & Pedro says that was the quote he chose which represented his life at the time. He wore a smile as the 'happy guy' rather than telling people what was really going on with himself. He thought this was easier than being honest with people about his turmoil and demons. He continuously battles them - and you should deal with yours as well.
Hardships vs Demons
As you age, grow, and live, things form who you are. Some our strengths are from hardships. We have lived certain ways and experienced certain things that make us unique and amazing. Demons, on the other hand, are not the good things. These form us in a negative way and are the hardest to get over since they affect us on a deep level. Even if you compartmentalize them, they can manifest themselves in different areas & aspects of our lives -- they can potentially ruin your life if you're not brave enough to deal with them head-on. Alpha made a decision years ago to chose happiness over anger & hostility.
Alpha's Demons Develop
Three years old was the first time he went to a therapist, being a child of separation and divorce. He doesn't remember much of that. About 10 -15 years later, he shut down. He didn't want to talk. He had several step-fathers, and they were emotionally abusive. With the 2nd step-father, he lost his ability not to stand-up for himself as he wanted to not rock the boat. He just wanted a place to live and keep his friends. He harbored anxiety and resentment toward his mother.
When he went off to college, he was still super pissed off. This time was very dark. He was a bit depressed. He was self-medication to numb the hurt, anger, and abandonment. He was very sad. But he graduated, and he moved to Atlanta, GA. He was dating a girl who was dealing with depression. For a long time, he didn't know what was going on with her, but he knew his own needs weren't getting met.
He opened a nutrition store, and got taken advantage of by his partner. He was miserable at home, his job, and his mother. He needed someone to talk to. He sought out a counselor. This one was a good one. What works for one person may not work for another. This counselor made him find his value and worth - it was a gift. Despite the bad negative experience, he decided he deserved to be happy.
Men & Mental Health
Mental health is important, and many times, men don't talk about it. Perhaps there's a stigma attached to it. Alpha says that men are not equipped to handle the demons on their own. Those who chose to be happy and find therapy are the ones who strong and will succeed. As a side note, Alpha sees that social media is not making people feel good about themselves. He also sees people taking their own lives, and they even had resources to help them.

I'm a woman. So I know your channel isn't tailored specifically for me. But I just wanna say that your channel has changed my life. I let my depression and trauma from my childhood affect my grooming and attitude and just everything. I was angry, drinking too much and just being ugly. I stumbled on your channel and your advice and idk. When the young teenage men on here say that you're somewhat of a father figure they aren't lying. It's sad that today we have to find parental guidance online. I turn 25 in a few months. I didn't think I was going to make it to 21. I was so suicidal. So to anyone young and afraid and just tired of life and the darkness. Please hold on. I've lost so many friends to suicide. Please don't do it. Please talk to someone. The state offers counseling. Call a hotline. I promise it will pass. Thanks Alpha for making this video. I'll leave the boys club now 🤐
Helen you are a beautiful person and you deserve to be happy! Thanks for sharing! Going through the comments has been really therapeutical for me! All the best!
I rarely like comments but thanks for saying all that. I'm wishing you the best.
thank you
Damn, you almost made a documentery.
You should make a documentory tho.
You're letter of resignation is refused, please stay
My favourite videos from you are when you pour your heart out. Still remember your 1 million subscriber video. You're so humbled, it's super inspiring.
Kevin Li that was touching
This is a fucking commercial you dense idiot.

"I always wear a smile because anything else would make me have to explain what you wouldn't understand anyway."
I'm 14 and this is deep
Damn
I’m considering reposting the video on reddit 😂😂
Hi 14 and this is deep, I’m dad
Rumkee Wubbs 😂😂😂
It’s actually really relatable
The videos in front of the brick walls are always too real,can make anyone emotional. Thanks alpha for sharing these things with us
rising raisings Your DP.... I thought i had a hair on my screen and i even tried to remove it more than twice😂
Your Dp is giving me a hard time
You demon, you got me again with that picture :'D
Damn you got me
AS-HI-SH P ALBIN lol
Goes to show how even the greatest of people have the most difficult of lives
I LOVE how you keep it real and shit here with RUclipsrs act like everything is perfect. We ALL have problems with something in our lives and many of us need help. Thank you for helping us with style, fitness, real life sh*t but simply just being you in every video since the beginning. It was definitely an honor to have met you at Mensfluential. I know quite a few people who need guidance in life so thank you for today’s video. 🙏🏼 All the best my friend.

I have been physically and emotionally abused by my father during my childhood. I'm 27 years old now and chose to forgive him in order to move on in my life. The best decision ever :)
Frankie the Squealer they will never forgive you
Your story proves the ABSOLUTE NEED for a father in a child's life. Kudos to you bud! Cheers
You know Alpha is gonna drop some real dad advice when the video is in front of the brick wall.
And I'll never complain. I needed this today. Thank you, Aaron.
Wow I have never find a quote so relatable Aaron, it's great to see someone with your platform talk about these sort of issues!
Seeking help was one of the best decisions of my life. Without a healthy mind, you can't live. Self care is #1. Well done👍
I definitely have problems, but I just need to be bigger than my problems and overcome them. It definitely isn't easy, but you can do it.
You know it's serious when he sits infront of the brick wall... thank you Aaron
I love when you talk about the emotional side of things for men.
This is by far my favourite video of yours. Mental health is a growing concern in society. I’ve been seeing a therapist for about 2 years now and it has completely changed my life. End the stigma of mental health, everyone can use help sometimes.
8:54 was the perfect moment to plug in Tiege Hanley.
Represent Minnesota lol
Represent Minnesota lol yeah
I have failed you!
alpha m. Haha
A Man who have conquered the ability to talk from the heart, is a real MAN. Props!!
I felt like crap before I started watching your videos alpha you always make sure to tell a guy everything we need to be awesome and constantly make me personally feel amazing about myself over time I'm glad you exist man for real
That quote described me perfectly.
I've been dealing with depression since I was 14(now17) but I'm always trying to hide it with a smile…
In about 2 weeks your channel is going to be 10 years🙂
Thanks for sharing dude! Even the most confident successful people still struggle with their own problems, and it takes courage to share them publicly. I’ve been seeing a counselor for a couple months now, in their office, cuz I’ve developed depression from repeated head injuries playing sports. To add to that my wife and her coworker had an affair and ran away together in an incredibly cowardly fashion, and dealing with stuff like that sometimes seems impossible without the right help. The difference it makes to speak to the right people and, if necessary, take the right meds is priceless. Don’t be afraid to ask for help, everyone needs it!!
Nate O but witch people is right ?
Thank you for this episode Aaron! Everything gets better when you get the help you really always needed. I didn't get my life together until i got diagnosed with ADHD that I was trying to muscle through until my late 20's. Big mistake. Everything was so much easier after that. I also realized i was depressed because I wasn't able to focus and not because I was not capable, hardworking or talented. It was like having the fog clear and being ready to take on life.
Good advice to get help as soon as possible!
Had depression all my life. Things got so much better once I got treatment in my late 60's. It's never to late to get help.
I really like to see the successful, alpha man talking about these hard times and demons we all have. It makes me feel so much better about myself, getting hope for the same, successful attitude you present here. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Aaron.
Damn it really hit hard when you mentioned Chester...
much respect man you are so humble it’s admirable
yep
Richard Ortwein s
Chester Bennington?
Wow, you have NO IDEA!!! Sometimes 'TIMING' is Everything and just hearing you talk openly about your personal Demons HIT ME.....Keeping it in WILL drive you Insane! Thank you Aaron
Alpha , I don't think you realize on what scale you have impacted my life ...like seriously you are the best RUclipsr and and I am so thankful to have found this channel ...your emotional vids are my favourite and I just want to tell you that you're doing a great job and keep showing everyone how helpful you can truly be 👊#ALPHA
That quote moved me. That quote basically sums up what is going on in my life right now. Thank you for posting this video, it's great to see someone so humble to help me turn my life in a better direction.
Your story really touched my heart man, maybe the first time crying to someone else’s bad story 😥I’m glad you overcome all of these bad things and became the good person you are today‼️Keep ya head up ✌🏻❤️
I absolutely loved this. At a young age I got a therapist because of extreme issues I discovered. It was hard, but I did it and recovered over time. It's a myth saying getting help from others make you weak as a man. In fact, it makes you strong and wise because you can't do everything on your own. You shouldn't burden everything on your shoulders. We all need someone. That's what people and friends are for.:) Good luck for all those warriors out there. You WILL get better. And shoutouts to alpha M. Been a subscriber for years now I believe. Proud of your hustle, and you inspire me:)
Don't search for Tiege Hanley memes , listen to alpha carefully..
Gautam Asopa tbh tiege hanley memes are pretty good lol
dammit u caught me
Shut Up they are awesome😁
Rus Toggamton 😂😂😂
Grammar Officer Hanes you are clearly new to the brotherhood. To officially join you must sit in a bath full of a concoction of Pete & Pedro hair products, Tiege Hanley, and have the P&P Shampoo and Conditioner in your hair for 1 month. Then your eyes will be opened
_Put on a face_
This sentence still gives me chills
Brother I know it takes a lot to open up like this, I can’t thank you enough for everything you’ve helped with. I just hope one day I get to re/pay you back. Again thank you for everything.
Nicholas Becker but will people understand you ?
alex kanyima I would hope so. Aaron has had a huge positive impact on my life.
It's amazing that you care so much about people and try to help others get out of their difficult journeys. I have a solid respect for you Aaron. I feel really empty with the loss of Chester. He disguised his sufferings with a smile on his face all the time... Any normal person would look at him and never realise he was facing through shit. It's Really kind of you to use this platform to help people suffering from depression and feel better about ourselves. I also want to thank you for changing my life. Because of you i have the motivation to take care of my body , my relationships, my personality and every other Social aspect. Thank you so much aaron, i fucking love you and what you do
Stay strong gentlemen...
Yo I felt that quote. For the past couple months I don’t rlly be having it in me because my anxiety likes to put things in my head. So I put a smile on my face to show it’s all good, which ends up becoming beneficial. But no matter those benefits, in the end those demons come back and tell me things in my head and say it’s not gonna be alright. Just gotta keep fighting and not lose that mental war
These experiences are the reason you are such an amazing person, I love you man, you are the best. you always motivate your youtube community so well and you are just like a god in his way.
I have a friend who has been using betterhelp for the last few months and it has absolutely changed his life.
These kind of videos are some of the purest videos you do and it makes it so evident that people we look up to have to deal with the same day to day struggles as the rest of us.
What a perfect time for this video since my last day of school and exams.
A worthy topic. Too many of us carry our problems in the dark because "we just deal with our shit". And it doesn't have to be that way. Some "shit" is just too heavy to carry alone.
Good s*** Aaron. Keep doing what you do..... You might not know it but you help thousands if not millions of people live better / happier lives. 💯👊✊🤙
We dont get to see aaron often, but when he does he shakes our core. This video moved me. I had some demons of my own. Trust me crushing each of them one by one motivates you to crush some more and help others to do the same.
Much love and appreciation 💕.
Aaron, you are such an inspiration for me, both as a RUclipsr, and as a businessman. Thank you!
Aaron, if you get to read this - Thank you. As someone who is studying and working on a placement in mental health and addiction, I cannot tell you how many times self-care and loving yourself comes up for the people I work with. Mental health really does have that stigma around, but it's people like you who are able to continue on and seek the help they need to move forward. Keep being the person that you are and keep on fighting those demons - and remember that you're worth something.
The best therapy is to be around friends who understand what you're going through and knowing that God wants you to be at your very best
MarveltheCross316 it depends on who's on your side
Damn Alpha, what a advertisement. I'm a therapist and was just thinking about expanding my practice online and you release this video. What timing. Guys don't do therapy. It's like Robert Dinero in Analyze this. I'm trying so hard to reach more dudes. This is the inspiration and confirmation I need. Thank you
Wow another face to face video😀 much love Aaron!
It took me years to work through my personal demons where I was able to get the point that I have no problem talking about them and admitting them to others. By confronting things in my past that took me down the road of self destruction. For many years I drank and did cocaine to bury my problems trying to act like they existed. It got to the point that I couldn't look in the mirror and recognize or respect the person looking back at me. I went to counseling and let go of the guilt and anger and the baggage of my past. I stopped cold turkey with the drinking and drugs. When I did that, it was my world brightened up and I saw things more clearly and saw how much I had missed out on . Today I'm the happiest I've ever been because I finally like, love and respect myself
You are the best, man! Thank you.
thanks for talking about mental health alpha. I've watched your videos for many years now, and the fact that you've been so real and honest is why I continue to watch your videos and support you.
This man graduated in 76???? TF?!?! Man looks hella young for his age!! 👏👏👏
neve941 he was born in 76 he graduated in 94 it’s on the cover lmao
Noah Rocklin 😂🤣🤦 I feel dumb now. 😂
I love your content Aaron and I hope you enjoy sharing with us about the more emotional/tough aspects of your life as it really helps me when I'm feeling down
LOL he looks so different in his yearbook!
“A man can go crazy without someone to care for” I made this quote when I was depressed and I regret it however I sent it to all my friends and they helped this video reminded me of that great vid alpha
My "meditation" is complete my demons are gone, just a couple I want to still keep hold of ooh yeah 😈🤘 and it's all thanks to you Alpha. Your a life changer 😎🤘

You know what.... watching this made me realize that if you can do it, so can I. Your work is amazing and provides the kind of push actually needed to be better. Can't thank u enough!
I fell in love with a girl, she's pretty, athletic and she makes my day every time I see her. There's only one problem, I'm short. It's been a while since I had thought about my height being a factor in my relationships. I was so happy back then when I could just talk to anyone, or just stand in a room without feeling awkward. I know there are some people who are gonna be like "your height shouldn't matter, cuz your awesome!" Well its easy for someone who's over 5'1 to say to me. Just thought I had to let it out and share with the fam, I'm not being my most alpha at the moment, I need reassurance.
Thank you for your time, and awesome video Aaron!
Sunlightshadow I am aware of that, but it happens too often. I meet a girl, we had good conversation, and then it just hits me saying "remember, ur short, there are other guys that are better than you". Until I had decided that my height was dragging me down (literally).
wrls listen up dude, dont listen to the inner voice that tries to bring you down. How does beeing small make you worse than other guys? Not at all in my opinion. If you are watching alphas videos i bet you know how to be a good person, how to dress and are probably better than 90% of the other guys. You are awesome! Never forget that!
Sunlightshadow but how will people understand you if they get a chance ?
Sunlightshadow to let them talk if there is problems and hopefully will understand you if they want help you
Thank you guys for the replies, I'll definitely keep them to heart and in mind. What I can't change shouldn't affect me, however I will try to better myself in other that I can change, aspects such as healthcare and attitude wise.
Thank you Aaron for putting this message out there for others. In the past two years I've had 3 different types of mental health therapy and I've gone from the darkest place I've ever been, to the brightest place. I'm extremely happy and real smiling all the time...i feel amazing!
I also feel that from eating super healthy has helped out alot which I feel is information that isn't spoken about when it comes to mental health.
Aaron from Cornwall in the UK
Damn Alpha, Your hair looks amazing!
Milan Jankovic healthy?
ryun hogan fruitful?
I currently and seeing s therapist and getting help for myself. Through therapy and my family and honestly through your videos, I’m beginning to see what I need to do in order to live a happy, healthy and successful life. The biggest thing, and you said it in your last video, it’s gotta be on your own gumption. You can either feel sorry for yourself or you can make shit happen. And honestly, I choose happiness over the things that have brought me down, and it feels great to have hope for the future because nothing is worth your health and happiness. Alpha, I love your channel, it’s helped me discover some things about myself and somethings that will help me in life and I hope you keep up the awesome work. Looking forward to your next video. And will also be signing up for tiege Hanley soon. Take care, man.
I didn't know what to do in my life now I'm broke , I was thinking to suicide today but there was a boy who showed me this video , but the dream I dream is much harder to get and way too risky to do , so I thought if I couldn't do anything , I couldn't give my parents anything it's better to die , but this boy who is showing me this video , I think it just changed my mind for a bit
king cold keep fighting bro, life can take a quick turn. Hang in there. Things will get better, trust me
I was way too worse than you, Rap music and GYM was my cure
Just sayin
You have a resource that no other person will ever have, and that is your potential for success. Dont look at failures as your end game, they are only the roads to the journey to success. You may not know the true desination, but you will get there and change the world for the better ❤
king cold shit happens but you got the chance to either fight or give up
Man remember never Give up. you woudn't get anything from suicide, would you? Suicide will make your parents life more miserable. work hard and take small small steps and stick with your dreams and one day you will be there where you wanted to be.
Just Do it man.
It's a great thing that you finally talked about more personal matters like mental health... Especially by telling a personal story like yours. Good job Alpha
Seek help! Tell somebody, vent, talk. One of the worst parts of mental health issues is hiding it.
Matthew Benavides but how will somebody understand you ?
alex kanyima unfortunately there’s a handful of people who are incapable of understanding signs of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts. Does “why don’t you just feel better” ring a bell? This ties in exactly with what Aaron said about the bad therapist. Most people are understanding because we don’t want others to suffer, even if we don’t understand it. I myself have gone through some intense bouts of depression and I know the feeling of reaching out, and being told that I was doing it to myself. Never listen to this advice, if you can even call it that. You matter, and people care about you. If you reach out, 9/10 someone will be there to lend a hand.
Born of Fire I understand the sentiment. Something worth pointing out here is the small amount of information the comment in question showed me. It sounds run of the mill, because there was nothing specific involved that I would be able to work with, aside from the topic itself. As someone who’s also dealt with severe depression and anxiety, in the past, I believe that you and I both know that just having it doesn’t give you experience in helping others solve it. This is why I pursued study in Psychology, and continue to study it. It’s hard to understand in moments of weakness, for those on the receiving end of what sounds like bland advice, but the bottom line is getting help via therapy, counseling, or medicine is all that we have to help aid those in need. A large portion of depression is caused by chemical imbalances, you either need to visit a doctor to get prescribed something to fix it, or begin visitation with a professional, so they can assist you in pin pointing the cause. What I say here in this RUclips comment will have little to no affect of how anyone views depression. That’s just the internet. But to say that seeking help is wrong, or that it is lazy, or not good advice. Is not good advice in and of itself. Regardless of the depth of the pain or anguish someone is going through, the first, and possibly biggest obstacle is finding help and pursuing whatever options you are given.
Aaron, myself as well as this whole community you built has the utmost respect for you because we know you have the same for us. You've helped me and countless others with possibly every aspect of life through your channel and ultimately, to a caliber where I can honestly say that you're a second father to me. I don't necessarily have family issues like some may have if you're wondering but regardless, you are a living icon and you inspire me to better the lives of other people. I am who I am because of you and I don't mean that in a sacrificial-worshipping way but definitely 100% truthfully instead. Much respect Aaron. Thank you for your service

Alpha without facial hair 😂 so cute.
I relate to that quote in your yearbook so much. I always smile, at least most of the time, to avoid questions or to avoid to be confronted with what people won't understand anyway. I've also had one stepfather for many years growing up who abused me in many different ways. It still effects me quite a lot in different aspects of my life. I still find it very difficult to stand up for myself. Letting my own voice be heard has in the first place always been difficult for me, since I've always had trouble communicating because of my autism, but the things happening in my past made it even more difficult.
No girl has ever loved me I was in a bubble as a child. I'm 19 and my best friend is moving away for college. My other friends are falling off and leaving me in the dust. I just want to end it
CryoCeII I am experiencing kinda the same thing.... I know what you are going through... My best piece of advice: forget about the friends who forgot about you, exercise more (it increases the chances of happiness),find a activity etc
K Max but "friends" are 2 faced everywhere
K Max or Leave you like dirt unexpected
ive already been weightlifting and following alphas advice as well as other self improvement stuff. No amount helps.
The thing that makes this guy and his channel stand out from all these other male self help RUclipsrs/influencers is that yes we can see you are a super confident and successful man but you are not afraid to be open and honest about who you truly are. You don’t let your past defy you but grew what from it and you’re showing other males who may be lost or in a rut and are trying to find a way out a navigation system. I really appreciate this channel
I’m planning on becoming a clinical Psychologist or Therapist. Thanks for this upload; it’s important to people.
Your transparency help us men to beat the norm of men always hiding in emotions. Thank you and Bless you all
“Always wear a smile”
If anyone watches anime then, this sounds like one of All Might’s quotes
Jesus Aaron, this was real...
I´m so glad you shared this with us. Thanks man
7:56 exactly brother
Alpha you are a very strong person for coming forward and talking about mental illness, mental health, and talking briefly a bit about your own things. I applaud you.
RIP X
I keep saying this @alpha m. Your voluntarily vulnerability keeps amazing me. This video brought me to tears. Thank you for being honest and direct. I recognise parts of this in my own life and so can relate. Keep being awesome.
The serious wall...
After watching your youtube channel for as long as I can remember, you have motivated me to look the best I can be and to be the best I can be. You brought change to my world and so I thank you for it Aaron Marino.

You beat me to it!
Aaron you might not see this but none the less, you’re the one who gave me the motivation to talk to my mom and get a therapist and seek help, I deal with depression and when you were talking about it’s hard to ask for help, it is. I’ll never forget how scared I was to talk to my mom and the therapist. I am young and not experienced the shit of this damn world fully but you have and are sharing this with us. You’re the reason I’m making this comment dude, thank you Aaron.
Can you give us your thoughts or examples on What is success and happiness ? And does success equal happiness? Thank you Alpha m.
It actually is
Herculez God of Gainz Gratitude makes what we have enough!
Thank you for this video. I have bipolar disorder and I struggle with it every day, and I will forever. I currently see a counselor and take medication. I can definitely say that getting help for your mental health is one of, if not the most important things you can do. That’s for anyone. Not just mentally ill people like myself. If this service fits your needs, do it. If something else is more to your liking, do that. Talk to SOMEONE. A counselor. A priest. Someone.
It’s so important and you will only benefit from it.
for some reason you remind me of chester bennington
zerdzood that’s the greatest compliment anyone can get
He even mentioned him in the video.
8:27
I'm a fan of him RIP, he was a great legendary rocker
I have always thaught that! I think the timbre of his voice is somewhat similar. Miss Chester.
Hi everyone. Hardships and demons are cruel. I try everything and everyday to be strong and positive. I'm in a hard time right now. I'm trying my hardest and trying to stay on my feet.
TIEGE HANLEY IS DOPE
In all honesty Alpha I came to your channel in a very low part in my life. And you helped me pick my life back up and help piece myself back together and enjoy life. Thanks Alpha for everything. Oh and especially tiege Hanley.
rip x
thank you alpha for this i have always suffered through a lot of traumatic things in my life and i still am suffering through a lot. thanks for being so humble
rip xxxtentacion
Hearing this and thinking of the times the demons won. Chokes you up... we hold our emotions back. We bottle things up... letting steam out in a nontoxic way is better.. than letting the demons win
God is the only one who can overcome your demons and dealing with hurt in your life!!!
Josiah Kratz this is absolutely great if they are your beliefs and they work for you, but others do not share your beliefs and are not helped by being told they can not overcome without adopting your beliefs
Brandon sooooo everyone should just keep silent huh?
Brandon yeah you aren’t helping the situation.
@ keeping silent: not at all. Speak up. Speak up louder. Just speak without putting anyone down because of their different beliefs. That's not complicated.
@ not helping the situation: I'm a therapist. This is exactly the situation I help.
Thank you alpha, for also putting out these kind of vids.
This hits really close to home for me, recently broke up with my gf who’s mentally unstable right now.
Felt unable to help, talk or be well. There for her and it’s been weeks and I think I need some help too and let go of this unhealthy self image and low self esteem.
So alpha keep on killin it!
I thought he was talking about schizophrenia
The most amount of respect to you man, you have changed my life for the better. Thank you for being an amazing father figure. Although we have never met, (yet) you have helped shape who I am.
Alpha, i watch your videos for about a year now, and i want to thank you for the amazing videos you make and how much you helped me. More than you even might think. Keep up what you are doing and we'll always support you!
