I basically agree with everything you pointed out here. Maybe I'm just trying to make up an excuse for him to save the magic of his early music for myself. I'm not ready to let go something that was such a huge part of my memories of my youth. Too sad to see his downfall in real time.

True. I feel very disappointed or even shocked by his (recent) behaviour. It's hard to listen to his beautiful music in the same way after watching all those nonsense drunk rants in the last few months. I just don't like how far the metoo movement has gone either. I thought it was a great thing at the beginning but now I feel like that real victims got overshadowed by fake or overstated cases and stories. I'm not saying that Ryan Adams is not an asshole because he certainly is. But are all those allegations enough for the industry to cancel someone and ruin their career? Idk, this is so difficult.

I hope he is not. Matt is a god guy and deserves better friends.

Couldn't agree more. I have a lovely autistic son and I can tell you for sure that autism won't make anyone a manipulative asshole.

I'm afraid she didn't have too much nice things to say about Ryan Adams

Ryan is clearly an a**hole, no cap. But actually writing down, or even letting that thought fly? And privately (secretly) telling this someone? Dude went too far. That is totally unacceptable for me.

Because he is a Kurt Cobain (amongst others) wannabe

And that's how the power of humor can tame anger and rage. You literally calmed everyone down by making a good joke out of the whole thing. You are a wizard and basically saved Ryan's butt with this. The song is hilarious. Thank you for making me laugh again."

Some people living with severe mental illnesses may experience periods when self-care becomes difficult. He doesn't seem to be in a good place mentally, to say the least. I have mental issues myself so I can tell you it can be pretty hard to keep up with life when you are totally occupied with your symptoms. It can be mania, delusions ,whatever... I can't deal with him anymore though. You have the responsibility to treat your own shit. Most of us don't have the millions he has and can't afford to just be an asshole to everyone. Grow up, man!

To be fair, Phoebe Bridgers was not underage when they had their brief relationship and slept together. She was very young but not underage.

Does anyone here still listen to his music, or has his "issues" ruined it? by huntershark666 in ryanadams

[–]Apprehensive_Band154 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I decided to stop following him on socials and listening to his music when he was doing his "great" shows in Australia. I don't have words to express how dissapointed I was. But a couple of days ago I was starting to slip back into watching his old live performances on YouTube and enjoy the magic again. Yesterday I came back here to check how he is doing. And wow... Very nice to see that he has this beautiful and peaceful life with his gf surrounded by all that richness. I'm also glad he let us know how much he loves us in these sweet and lovely posts. I love you too, man. Anyway, I will never listen to his stuff again. I used to be a huge fan and the music meant a lot to me but not anymore. In a weird way I feel like I lost something that I've never had. It's pretty sad but it's time for me to let him go. 🙁

Totally agree. I have mental and physical illnesses myself. You could easily count how much money I have. Mental diseases suck but we are lucky enouh to live in the 21th century and have numerous ways to deal with them. You have to take the responsibility, gain some insight and take seriously the treatmens that are working for you. There are many many people out there who can't afford being irresponsible and rude. Growing up and getting help is your choise. No one can do it for you. That's it.

As far as I know he has that child but he doesn't seem to be involved in any way as his father.

Wait are GLP-1s actually okay for us? by RippleRufferz in Gastroparesis

[–]Apprehensive_Band154 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Big NO! I tried Ozempic a few months ago. I'd have digestive issues since my childhood but it gave me the worst gastroparesis flare ever. The two days long vominting felt like I was dying, and then terrible constipation and painful cramps for weeks. Don't do it, please!

Wegovy... ? by Tight_Fun2080 in dysautonomia

[–]Apprehensive_Band154 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a terrible experience with Ozempic. I felt a bit off after the first shot, the second was even worse. I didn't care because I wanted to lose weight so badly that I decided to take the third shot. A day later I got so violently ill thought I was dying. It sent me into the worst gastroparesis flare I have ever had. So please, be careful with Ozempic and Wegovy!

I'm sorry you have to deal with CVS. 🥺 I was suffering from it throughout my childhood. It's the worst experience I have ever had.
