Appreciate your outlook on this. I don’t talk about it, especially online or chat rooms or whatever but I battle(and continue to struggle daily walking on the razors edge) but seeing comments like yours, they are crucial to me and my success to keep fighting!!!! I do not include others because to me it’s an internal war that I can NEVER win alone. It’s not my place to speak for anyone other than myself because we all have our own story to tell. I will give my support to almost anyone, but like me, I/WE can only change if I/WE are willing to put in the work. Thank you for your random and unbiased support!!!!! Now let’s get this year over and I just hope that 2023 is as kind to everyone on this planet as possible and everyone can thrive(together)!!!!!!! Happy New Year, Nick.
One thing this proves is, if you look at Oli you think he “has it all”, he has a successful band, restaurant, clothing line, he is so talented, has a beautiful wife, beautiful house, decent amount of money, and he’s absolutely the most gorgeous man alive. No matter how successful we think people are they still struggle with metal issues, depression, and unfortunately hate themselves, and find no meaning in life. I have depression, anxiety, and too feel like life is pointless. I don’t hate myself, but I’m extremely insecure all the time. It oddly makes me feel better knowing that other people feel this struggle as well, I don’t feel as alone. I wish everyone positive vibes, and to find true meaning in life.
Look at all the other stars that have died from the same issues. Jim Morrison, good looking dude with a sexy voice and amazing personality, gone. Chester Bennington, Kurt Cobain, Scott Weiland, etc etc. It's a shallow industry they work in, and sometimes the fame and fortune isn't enough to be happy. Sometimes you don't allow yourself to be happy. Drugs are just a rabbit hole when you just want to escape in, and it's an unhealthy way to deal with your issues. As we all know. As fun as they are.
You’re definitely not alone, I literally have everything I’ve dreamed of as a kid, husband, beautiful kids, nice house and I’m still struggling with depression, anxiety, bad thoughts. It doesn’t matter how good you have it if your brain isn’t in the right place
Everyone struggles. Everyone has their demons. We're all living the same life, just in different places at different times. When you feel like you're in a room full of strangers, just realize you have a lot more in common with them than you think.
Naw, what it proves is that you can have the whole world & still need God, real peace & unconditional love comes from God, Oil needs God just like all of us. The one true God, Christ Jesus
*"My band wanted to kill me... my parents wanted to kill me.. my brother wanted to kill me"* That's all relatable. Except he left out what really changes things. When *you* want to kill you
@@kavehgaming546 so you didn't watch the video. Could have just said that instead of sounding like you're just commenting on random videos without having any context
@@Littlewing6was9literally, you could have just said you didn't watch the video.why did you feel the need to make a comment that makes no sense when in context of the video
I just watched them two weeks ago here in Brazil, dude already has ID and is speaking portuguese so well, he talked with the audience in portuguese the whole show and the crowd obviously loved it. Alissa really helped our boy get better. We can almost claim him as one of our own already hahah.
@@carolina5613 and he speaks really well for someone with a heavy british accent, it's pretty understandable, most people coming from germanic languages have a hard time with the diction of portuguese.
I am so glad he is staying strong and learning to live himself. Getting sober feels impossible and staying sober is really hard. Especially when you struggle with mental illness.. I’m so proud of him
I wish i could hug you Oli. I'm so happy he's doing well and still going strong even after a drug relapse, and all the support he gets from his wife, family, and friends. You're worth it and deserve all of that love Oli. Because you're an amazing person and musician / songwriter.
the album sempiternal literally saved my life back in middle school I almost od bmth music has been such an anchor for me the way they express emotion was so cathartic to hear i’m so happy that he has found love, meaning, & beauty in his life 🤍 much love!
Casey Calvert, chester Bennington, Paul grey, that's just to name a few rock/metal artists that died. We cant lose oli. I'm a teenager so I didn't experience losing an idol for me even though I'm a fan of dead ones I didn't experience losing them but if oli died that's gonna be hard for me
I completely feel his pain. I've never had any major issues with any drug, but I've been dealing with eating disorders since before quarantine. I was getting better around that time and then boom! Everyone stuck at home. Therefore, no weight loss control, so I couldn't check how I was doing. Of course I restricted my diet quite a lot. Down to no more than 600 kcals a day (being almost 20 and 1,65 m tall at that moment), sometimes, not even 400. I would be threatened with getting hospitalised if I didn't eat more. And by the time restrictions were starting to be lifted, I had already began suffering the comseqyences or that lack of eating. Terrible. That period was a nightmare for a lot of us for sure. 😰
This band has gotten through this year and Oli’s words are so relatable to my personal life! I’ve always dealt with self loathing and I hate that I feel like that. I hope he gets right and lives a happy life.
We're all lucky Oli has a good wife, because had she left him for this I don't know if we'd see Oli much more after that. Sobriety is hard as fuck but it's so worth it. I'm glad to hear he's been actively doing things to better his mental state
It takes a really strong person to love someone with an addiction. I can't say that I'm that person, I tried it once and it lead to abuse, but I'm so proud of Oli for choosing to stay with us, with his family, his beautiful wife and best mates.
I didn’t know this, saw him in both 2021 and 2022 and I didn’t know he had a relapse.. I care for him so much and I’m so grateful for him, this made me cry. I hope he’s doing alright now ❤
I’ve been a huge fan of BMTH and going through highschool, I was an alcoholic, I still am an alcoholic but I’m now in recovery, as of the 1st of 2023, I have now been 7 months sober. Seeing this video and realizing that there are people like Oli who have the same sickness and illness as I do just makes me stronger and makes me want to push harder so I can continue to get better and fight this sickness inside of me and my head. Love you Oli, stay strong my dude ❤️😊
little throwbacks can happen, in mental health, addictions and so on. How we deal with them is the important thing. Acknowledge, the problem and seek help. Sometimes it´s to hard to make it all by yourself, and thats ok. It´s ok to seek help. There is no need to be ashamed. Oli got the help he needed and deserved! I´m glad that he seems to be in a good state of mind for now
Sempiternal has so much emotions and just feels like a masterpiece so hopefully their new album will have the same feels as that one and it would be sick if they did a 10 year anniversary tour
I am so glad oli has gotten better, I’m a fan of bring me the horizon, and hot take, I think they make way better music than bands like five finger death punch and shinedown, especially when compared to all of those bands recent releases.
it was unexpected and shocking to learn that he started to use drugs again. i hope he finally understood himself and will never go back to this. Oli is such a unique musician, and we know so much stories about great musicians dying of overdoses and suicides
Oli was my idol growing up. He’s the reason I became a tattoo artist, and introduced me to the style that I’ve grown so fond of. I met him several times between 2009-2012. He basically became a voice in my head that I used to navigate my life at the time. It got kind of disappointing after “that’s the spirit”, even more so during “amo” and “posthuman”. I used to see his life as a mirror to my emotions up until “amo” as well. While it hurts to hear the stuff they put out now, I’ll never not support what they decide to do to move forward. They ended up helping me have some of the best moments of my life. I just wish I could go back to that time…that feeling of truly being alive and not knowing what to expect around the corner, but having hope that it was going to be the next big thing. Getting older sucks, and I haven’t really felt much of anything at all lately. I guess everyone’s hopes and dreams die eventually. I’m just glad it lasted as long as it did.
I knew it! he is experiencing personal struggles and hearing from this knowing I love their music but ovrall as a fan I do care about the members in the band too knowing they know they are also experiencing personal struggles too in their own life. As a fan we must acknowledge the band does good service to us fan but now is the time for the fan to serve them and to be considerate to the band and think of them that they are too struggling as well cause they make make music that is personal to them too and to the fans. This is why I'm a music lover and fan of bring me the horizon. I'm thankful for the band to maor aucha impactful music 🙌🏾🔥🙏🏽😇🤘🏾✌🏾❤❤❤
I’m glad to hear he’s doing well. I too am struggling with addiction and my family has been a huge support in my life. It is not easy but I have to remind myself that someone is always there for me
He is a huge inspiration to all of us that love music. This shows even icons have their own personal problems. Happy he is realizing drugs aren't worth it. Love you Oli! thank you for your music!
Thank you, Alissa and thank you to his family for getting help. And Oli, of course for choosing help. I hope you'll stay strong and stay well. Before you played Die4u live, you said we (fans) saved you. Well you saved me too. 😊 thank you ❤
Addiction and recovery are crazy. But a slip up does not ruin your chances you just have to keep up that momentum. Understand where the relapse started and work on that. I’ve been clean 6 years of everything hard. It’s a daily thing. Especially when you’re depressed and nihilistic cause again “fuck it why not” is so easy to say
Addiction is a hard battle to overcome. Glad to hear he's taking the steps to recovery once again. I am also a recovering addict and have struggled with drugs as well as alcoholism for the past 10 year. I actually discovered bmth while in active addiction to meth around 5 or 6 years ago. I'd replay their songs _Sleepwalking_ and _Avalanche_ over and over. Those are still two of my all time favorite songs I've ever heard. They got me through some of my darkest days. Staying sober is hard, I can only imagine what it's like to be a 'rock star' in recovery. I wish oli and his family/ band the best
Two weeks ago I saw them live in chile, I had a sign that said "your song drown saved my life". During follow you Oli said that I didn't know how much those words meant to him and then during Drown he came down from the stage and gave me a hug. He's the reason why I'm still here ❤️🩹
Love the theme for the new album. We need that perspective in this day and age. Looking forward to it! I never listened to this band before this EP cause they have a collab with Amy from Evanescence, but it was seriously killer!
"it doesn’t specify exactly what it’s talking about. But with the imagery in the video and the lyrics, drugs doesn’t seem far off. In fact it does mention him being high as a kite and never coming down. “Addicted to the edge. High as a kite, I’m never coming down. If you hear me, guess you know how it feels - to be alone.” This screams addiction to me. Especially knowing Oli’s past with addiction and drugs." I didn't say it isn't centered about addiction, but watch the official Genius video, where Oli himself talks about the song's meaning, it's definitely social media fakeness and intrusive thoughts relating to that. Also you have the first lyric wrong, it's "I'm tripping on the edge". The video leans more into the drugs aestethic, sure, but as a whole and especially lyrically, the song is focused on a different kind of addiction. He said it himself.
@@1203fild oh yeah I remember that video. It’s been a while since I watched it. Thanks for the correction, I had a feeling I got that part wrong lol. But yeah I see what you’re saying but I don’t think it’s crazy to see a double meaning to it. That’s the beauty of music, there’s so many sides and meanings that we can come up with, with certain lyrics existing to justify why we feel that way. I think we’re both right when it comes to the song’s meaning. Yeah he officially said that the meaning was one thing but, given his past, it’s not crazy to see another meaning mixed in there.
@@skrublordnord69 Oh yeah definitely, i think music is beautiful in this, finding your own meaning in the songs is vital in relating to it. For example Linkin Park only used the you pronoun, at least in their early work, i read an article in which it was mentioned how they do it deliberately so more people can project their situations better, which seems like a win-win scenario. I'm glad we had a nice and cordial discussion, doesn't happen sometimes here in yt comments lmao.
@@1203fild damn I’m a massive fan of LP and I never even heard of that before lol. And yeah man of course! It’s not everyday you come across a sane person on the internet, especially RUclips. It’s definitely a clown world out there lol. Stay safe friend! Happy New Year!
How do you get to the point of loving yourself. That just doesn't sound doable. I've been in councilling for years and although it's finished now, because NHS only gives you a limited time, I struggled to talk about myself, even the abuse I went through as a child, group therapy helped cos I could listen and give advice to others, but cannot talk about me without feeling self obsessed or stupid. Hard to explain.bmth music is helpful to me for the most part. I've been through drug issues in the past too. So I totally get Oli and his lyrics. Atleast their music makes me feel less alone. When I have sevear Les, obviously music doesn't always work. No matter how loud I blast it. Just gotta accept I'll always feel this way I guess. Total misfit . Really happy for Oli. You can really see the change in him.❤❤ Love it
I love BMTH and I love Oli. New album or Old albums. Whatever style changes they went through. Im there for it. I evolve with the band. Im here for the music. Im not here to critique. All of you real fans should be the same. Stop the ‘i miss their old stuff’ and stop the hate. There are other bands out there that can give you that. Or just listen back to their older albums. They’re still on Spotify/RUclips
i remember like a few years ago, he said in an interview encouraging people to do as many drugs and smoking and drinking, as much as possible. didnt age well now did it?
Ive done ketamine alot but its not something i was addicted to i dont understand how anyone could but eh im addicted to amphetamines tho and they def are the worst to be depeneded on i know people being addicted to both man just dont touch drugs it will ruin you long term and youll never stop for good
saw bmth live with slipknot. never thought i'd b saying that shit, their music is ok imo but it's not something i'd listen to regularly. i hope he's able to get the help he needs.
My best buddy is a junkie. I never understood it. Doesn't look fun, getting high is supposed to be fun. Give me a doobie, a whiskey, and a hot blonde, I'm having the night of my life while homeboy is slumped over in the corner. I just don't get it. He missed out on so many epic and memorable nights. Merry Christmas, rock stars!! 🎸😎🇺🇲🗽🥃✝️🍺🥧🥶🌬️🍃🎅🏻
Cant help but think maybe those ketamine injections werent so good for Trevor after all. It is new and i dont think we know much about the side effects. Bothers me to think if he never got talked to about it and involved with it all, he might still be here.
Thessalonians 5:16-18 "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." Consistently Pray for forgiveness, guidance in a good (positive) direction, and for help against evil. Pray to be saved from hell (whatever that may be). Pray for your friends and your family too, it only takes a minute or so/less at a time to pray. Do it and your life will slowly get better, or maybe quickly. It probably just depends on you and the kind of person you are/have been. Don't wait until its too late and you have to suffer the consequences of built up bad karma from immoral acts/unrepented sins. Maybe together we can help make the world a better place by changing ourselves for the better, and changing things around us for the better. And addressing/thanking the CREATOR, LORD GOD at the beginning and end of your prayers would be a good idea 😊 Or just be my friend if you don't want to say the prayer 😄 I'm trying to help you get right with the LORD 🙏 Amen. I have worded a short prayer for you to say if you are not sure what words to use, it may not be the best but here it is 😊 '' CREATOR, LORD GOD, Please forgive me and my friends and my family for our immoral acts, please help guide us in a positive direction and please help us against evil. Please save us from Hell and have mercy on our souls. Thank you CREATOR, LORD GOD. Amen. '' Please say this at least once a day for at least a month, do it longer if you want to and can 🙏 You should prostrate yourself if you don't want to do spoken prayer, or do both 🙏 Please worship the LORD GOD and not any idol. 🙏 Say ' Om Namah Shivaya ' out loud or in your head 108 times, or try to do it 1008 times 😊 try to do it everyday if you want repeat this aloud for as long as you want to, try to do it for like an hour a day or say it in a prayer "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner"
I assume that it doesn't work like that. He explained numerous times that the heaviness of survival horror was inspired by events that were happening in the world and how he wanted to let out his anger and feelings about them. Sole fact that he used ketamine in times when the band wasn't that experimental doesn't mean that if he starts to use it again the band will go back to the old sound.
Call me a fool I cant watch it. Hate me but Jesus is the only way to salvation from the cycles of the enemy we live in the hate in our hearts building up needs its weight taken now so we can experience lighter hearts and brighter days. I, We really Love you (broken and all they try to tell us we are) radical healing is real🙏 💔 please take time to refill your cup Noble one❤️🔥 mental 'illness' and the 'supernatural' comes in all classes people it does not discriminate rich poor old young ok people
Oli needs islam. It would help him find a meaning to life and it has a routine that would give him a sense of stability. It also emphasizes to look at the life around you and the little things and be thankful for them and emphasizes being a kind person and doing good. It's also logical. I think it would help him a lot since I've heard from many people who have addiction issues/existential crises turn to it and find comfort. You just have to go in with an open mind without preconceived notions.Just my opinion.
I'll always be an alcoholic, it may or may not kill me. I don't care anymore TBH. This life is horrendous and painful anyways. Sober or loaded, it just sucks.
I'm glad he's enjoying the simple pleasures and enjoying the little things in life now. He deserves it, as someone who saw hell, and built the strength to pull himself back out, and shared the story with other people struggling with the same thing. Some people just choose to stay dead inside or can't see a way out. I know his music helped me get out. I share his music with my little sister cause I know she struggles with depression and anger, and having music or SOMETHING to relate to how you fee, and something to help you cry it out is important.
Oli needs to stay strong, we can't afford to lose another rock/metal artist
don't talk like that, we're not losing oli!
right?
R.I.P oli
We lost oli after second BMTH album hahahahaha, rest is just garbage (there are a couple of songs that are so good, but just a couple)
@@danielescobardiaz it's funny cause i actually listen to everything except the first album. I listen a few songs on the 2nd and 3rd.

Its true, no one is impervious to mental challenges.
It’s not mental illness. It’s just being human
He's such an inspiration to me honestly I don't think I'd be where I am without this band and without him being so candid when he decided to open up

yea ik right...
dying from ketamine only tends to happen if you drink too much alcohol with it, the suicide part though..... thats the real kicker
hope he’s doing okay 🫶 i love their music it’s my favorite band

I'm worry for him, I don't want anything bad to happen to him. Thanks to BMTH I was able to find comfort and for that I will always be grateful.
I’m glad to hear he’s doing well. I too am struggling with addiction and my family has been a huge support in my life. It is not easy but I have to remind myself that someone is always there for me
Just a stumble..... reflect, Refocus and be thankful you have an opportunity to get back where you want to be
He is a huge inspiration to all of us that love music. This shows even icons have their own personal problems. Happy he is realizing drugs aren't worth it. Love you Oli! thank you for your music!
Thank you, Alissa and thank you to his family for getting help. And Oli, of course for choosing help. I hope you'll stay strong and stay well. Before you played Die4u live, you said we (fans) saved you. Well you saved me too. 😊 thank you ❤
🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸🎸💖
So happy he’s seeking help! BMTH are my favourite band and I’d be heartbroken if he did something stupid, all the fans are behind him.
Addiction and recovery are crazy. But a slip up does not ruin your chances you just have to keep up that momentum. Understand where the relapse started and work on that. I’ve been clean 6 years of everything hard. It’s a daily thing. Especially when you’re depressed and nihilistic cause again “fuck it why not” is so easy to say
Addiction is a hard battle to overcome. Glad to hear he's taking the steps to recovery once again. I am also a recovering addict and have struggled with drugs as well as alcoholism for the past 10 year. I actually discovered bmth while in active addiction to meth around 5 or 6 years ago. I'd replay their songs _Sleepwalking_ and _Avalanche_ over and over. Those are still two of my all time favorite songs I've ever heard. They got me through some of my darkest days. Staying sober is hard, I can only imagine what it's like to be a 'rock star' in recovery. I wish oli and his family/ band the best
🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸🎸💖
You've got a great wife Oli.
Enjoy the channel.
Two weeks ago I saw them live in chile, I had a sign that said "your song drown saved my life". During follow you Oli said that I didn't know how much those words meant to him and then during Drown he came down from the stage and gave me a hug. He's the reason why I'm still here ❤️🩹
I saw them last night and had no idea he relapsed. I hope he continues to take care of himself, don’t want to lose him ❤️
Addiction/ recovery is a rollercoster you got this oli good job wife and family!!!!!!
Love the theme for the new album. We need that perspective in this day and age. Looking forward to it! I never listened to this band before this EP cause they have a collab with Amy from Evanescence, but it was seriously killer!
So that’s what Teardrops was about. I had a feeling.
I think it's based specifically around social media addiction though
"it doesn’t specify exactly what it’s talking about. But with the imagery in the video and the lyrics, drugs doesn’t seem far off. In fact it does mention him being high as a kite and never coming down. “Addicted to the edge. High as a kite, I’m never coming down. If you hear me, guess you know how it feels - to be alone.” This screams addiction to me. Especially knowing Oli’s past with addiction and drugs."
I didn't say it isn't centered about addiction, but watch the official Genius video, where Oli himself talks about the song's meaning, it's definitely social media fakeness and intrusive thoughts relating to that. Also you have the first lyric wrong, it's "I'm tripping on the edge". The video leans more into the drugs aestethic, sure, but as a whole and especially lyrically, the song is focused on a different kind of addiction. He said it himself.
@@1203fild oh yeah I remember that video. It’s been a while since I watched it. Thanks for the correction, I had a feeling I got that part wrong lol.
But yeah I see what you’re saying but I don’t think it’s crazy to see a double meaning to it. That’s the beauty of music, there’s so many sides and meanings that we can come up with, with certain lyrics existing to justify why we feel that way. I think we’re both right when it comes to the song’s meaning. Yeah he officially said that the meaning was one thing but, given his past, it’s not crazy to see another meaning mixed in there.
@@skrublordnord69 Oh yeah definitely, i think music is beautiful in this, finding your own meaning in the songs is vital in relating to it. For example Linkin Park only used the you pronoun, at least in their early work, i read an article in which it was mentioned how they do it deliberately so more people can project their situations better, which seems like a win-win scenario. I'm glad we had a nice and cordial discussion, doesn't happen sometimes here in yt comments lmao.
@@1203fild damn I’m a massive fan of LP and I never even heard of that before lol. And yeah man of course! It’s not everyday you come across a sane person on the internet, especially RUclips. It’s definitely a clown world out there lol.
Stay safe friend! Happy New Year!
So proud of him and only wishing them the best
I don't know why, because Ozzy and Oli aren't similar like that... yet somehow i started to view Oli as an modern day Ozzy
If he was broke it probably would have been tougher to get help sadly it’s good that he was able to get it
How do you get to the point of loving yourself. That just doesn't sound doable. I've been in councilling for years and although it's finished now, because NHS only gives you a limited time, I struggled to talk about myself, even the abuse I went through as a child, group therapy helped cos I could listen and give advice to others, but cannot talk about me without feeling self obsessed or stupid. Hard to explain.bmth music is helpful to me for the most part. I've been through drug issues in the past too. So I totally get Oli and his lyrics. Atleast their music makes me feel less alone. When I have sevear Les, obviously music doesn't always work. No matter how loud I blast it. Just gotta accept I'll always feel this way I guess. Total misfit . Really happy for Oli. You can really see the change in him.❤❤ Love it
really happy for him
I love Oli way too much, hopefully we dont lose him
I love BMTH and I love Oli. New album or Old albums. Whatever style changes they went through. Im there for it. I evolve with the band. Im here for the music. Im not here to critique. All of you real fans should be the same.
Stop the ‘i miss their old stuff’ and stop the hate. There are other bands out there that can give you that. Or just listen back to their older albums. They’re still on Spotify/RUclips
the isolation of the pandemic screwed me up too / had 10 years sobriety and it went out the window / still struggling
i remember like a few years ago, he said in an interview encouraging people to do as many drugs and smoking and drinking, as much as possible.
didnt age well now did it?
Ive done ketamine alot but its not something i was addicted to i dont understand how anyone could but eh
im addicted to amphetamines tho and they def are the worst to be depeneded on
i know people being addicted to both
man just dont touch drugs it will ruin you long term and youll never stop for good
3:20 trust is huge in any relationship
This is how it is in reality. You can never fully kick it
i was thinking "he's just doing the wrong drugs. he should do ayahuasca" and it sounds like thats what he was doing in peru.
Wait why are we calling this album his break out album? I remmeber them from like 2006.
moderation is key.
saw bmth live with slipknot. never thought i'd b saying that shit, their music is ok imo but it's not something i'd listen to regularly. i hope he's able to get the help he needs.
Oli i highly recommend staying away from MGK that's probably your main first step of sobering up
I went to see them in Sheffield last on the post your and he claims that was his first show sober
oli sykes da goat no cap
No disrespect bruv, doing a great job. This channel is turning into the rock/metal version of TMZ though.
I didn’t know Oli went back to ketamine… I hope he’s staying safe , healthy and especially mentally sound
Were you struggling with sobriety when you made the title for this video? It's Post Human: SURVIVAL Horror, not "Survivor." Maybe fix that!
oli, please dont end up like chester…
Anybody hear of that album "Simp Eternal"?
last time i check its "Gimp Immortal" stop changing namee man its disrespectful
May sound ignorant here , but what is ketamine?
it's a dissociative analgesic tranquilizer.
@@Benjamin_Gellman Thanks , I heard of it but had no idea what it was!✌️
I just been oli to be ok
3:40 wait, Video games are also a therapy? make sense but I have no idea why people find it interesting in their happiness life.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I Love Sempiternal!!!I've been off H for a 1 1/2...never going back.
If you like sempiternal, listen to For Those That Wish To Exist from Architects!
@DANIEL ESCOBAR also classic
symptoms of a broken spirit

@@ivankostadinov5924 my fav one is Lost Together//Lost Forever
fckn love Oli
Not quite sure how I feel about this 2bh. The fact that he relapsed not that long ago 😕
It’s his lifestyle
My best buddy is a junkie. I never understood it. Doesn't look fun, getting high is supposed to be fun. Give me a doobie, a whiskey, and a hot blonde, I'm having the night of my life while homeboy is slumped over in the corner. I just don't get it. He missed out on so many epic and memorable nights. Merry Christmas, rock stars!!
🎸😎🇺🇲🗽🥃✝️🍺🥧🥶🌬️🍃🎅🏻
A bit self righteous aye ..
😐
It's a METAL record
Dude looks like he needs help, immediately. I've seen a lot people taking out their own life not long after looking like that.
Drugs suck
more like u suck if u consume em and get addicted,dont blame drug for ur mistake man
Life is pointless
Life sucks
no, drugs are fantastic and beneficial
it's dependence that sucks, when you can't operate WITHOUT the drug
Cant help but think maybe those ketamine injections werent so good for Trevor after all. It is new and i dont think we know much about the side effects. Bothers me to think if he never got talked to about it and involved with it all, he might still be here.
Thessalonians 5:16-18
"Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you."
Consistently Pray for forgiveness, guidance in a good (positive) direction, and for help against evil. Pray to be saved from hell (whatever that may be). Pray for your friends and your family too, it only takes a minute or so/less at a time to pray. Do it and your life will slowly get better, or maybe quickly. It probably just depends on you and the kind of person you are/have been. Don't wait until its too late and you have to suffer the consequences of built up bad karma from immoral acts/unrepented sins. Maybe together we can help make the world a better place by changing ourselves for the better, and changing things around us for the better.
And addressing/thanking the CREATOR, LORD GOD at the beginning and end of your prayers would be a good idea 😊
Or just be my friend if you don't want to say the prayer 😄
I'm trying to help you get right with the LORD 🙏
Amen.
I have worded a short prayer for you to say if you are not sure what words to use, it may not be the best but here it is 😊
'' CREATOR, LORD GOD,
Please forgive me and my friends and my family for our immoral acts, please help guide us in a positive direction and please help us against evil. Please save us from Hell and have mercy on our souls. Thank you CREATOR, LORD GOD. Amen. ''
Please say this at least once a day for at least a month, do it longer if you want to and can 🙏
You should prostrate yourself if you don't want to do spoken prayer, or do both 🙏 Please worship the LORD GOD and not any idol. 🙏
Say ' Om Namah Shivaya ' out loud or in your head 108 times, or try to do it 1008 times 😊 try to do it everyday if you want
repeat this aloud for as long as you want to, try to do it for like an hour a day or say it in a prayer "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner"
Sempiternal is still their best
I'm his doppleganger... we. Share the steuggle... I love dissa1socia5ion but it's not good to get burned and absorbed into that abyss
What is that intro song called?
If only he had the same consideration for the girls in his life before
I didn’t know he relapse wtf. Is the ketamine why he went back to a metal sound?
I assume that it doesn't work like that. He explained numerous times that the heaviness of survival horror was inspired by events that were happening in the world and how he wanted to let out his anger and feelings about them. Sole fact that he used ketamine in times when the band wasn't that experimental doesn't mean that if he starts to use it again the band will go back to the old sound.
Survival Horror not survivor
Choices.....and next time you WILL see hell!
Wanted the good shit again and made badass music. Sadly sober Oli as well as sober Danny Worsnop make wonky music.
Call me a fool I cant watch it. Hate me but Jesus is the only way to salvation from the cycles of the enemy we live in the hate in our hearts building up needs its weight taken now so we can experience lighter hearts and brighter days. I, We really Love you (broken and all they try to tell us we are) radical healing is real🙏 💔 please take time to refill your cup Noble one❤️🔥 mental 'illness' and the 'supernatural' comes in all classes people it does not discriminate rich poor old young ok people
is that the cure for what he was itching..?
Oli needs islam. It would help him find a meaning to life and it has a routine that would give him a sense of stability. It also emphasizes to look at the life around you and the little things and be thankful for them and emphasizes being a kind person and doing good. It's also logical. I think it would help him a lot since I've heard from many people who have addiction issues/existential crises turn to it and find comfort. You just have to go in with an open mind without preconceived notions.Just my opinion.
and again, it all seemed perfect until you realize it wasnt. istagram is toxic
Damn ketamine how do you function
Artists who feel drugs make them better artists are delusional. Sobriety is the best way to find your voice.
thats a goddamn weird ass excuse for being unhealthy
I'll always be an alcoholic, it may or may not kill me.
I don't care anymore TBH.
This life is horrendous and painful anyways.
Sober or loaded, it just sucks.
Well said
Show us some clips please
I'm glad he's enjoying the simple pleasures and enjoying the little things in life now. He deserves it, as someone who saw hell, and built the strength to pull himself back out, and shared the story with other people struggling with the same thing. Some people just choose to stay dead inside or can't see a way out. I know his music helped me get out. I share his music with my little sister cause I know she struggles with depression and anger, and having music or SOMETHING to relate to how you fee, and something to help you cry it out is important.
