Not to mention your huge personality and crazy ideas. Now that I realize for years she was also putting up with your alcoholism, Collette is a SAINT!!!!

Look where alcohol has landed him today. Not in a good place, being exposed for dming a cam girl for all of the wrong reasons in my opinion and has been dealing with alcoholism for 3 months again. My prayers go out to him and his family but he's now only revealed this after he's been exposed, that's my issue with this issue it's the fact that he had to be exposed for him to say to his loyal viewers somethings wrong. Also I feel deeply sorry for his wife and kids like what's going to happen with the kids and school gavin and avia are now at that age where social media plays a big part in their school life so what will happen with them will they get support from their fellow school students or be made a laughing stock of because of their father's drunken 'mistakes'. Will this issue ever be forgot?

When Shay was saying he googled how to get drunk on less calories, it reminded me of when my dad went on the Vodka diet because it was less calories. lol. Well, Medical Marijuana became legal in AZ and he basically swapped alcohol for Weed and lost 200lbs! He's looks and feels so much better. I know not everyone is for medical marijuana but It really helped my dad. He's a new person.

I think it's very real to talk about not only the bad aspects of alcoholism, but also the "positive" feelings that alcohol gave you that drove you to drink. Sometimes it is difficult for non-addicts to understand addiction. I am also glad that you share the experience that you do not have allow an addiction to completely destroy your life before you find a reason to make the decision to get better. God and family are so important in recovery. As someone who grew up watching you both, it is so important to see you guys being human beings that I can relate to and admire--instead of just characters to fangirl over. I love you both!

This video gave me such a weird feeling (in a good way) .. I have been watching Shay's daily vlogs for so long, from around the time that Emmie was still a toddler. I remember that Shay to me was the better version of my own father, who had been an alcoholic for the past ten years of my life (I'm 20, he quit earlier this year) I also remember wishing my dad could be more like Shay. During this period of alcoholism I lost almost all the respect I had towards my father and up until this day I struggle to rebuild our bond, even though I never left the house and we still are living together as a family with my mom and sister. So to watch this video and hearing Shay talk about his own struggles with alcoholism, it means a lot to me and makes me want to try harder to rebuild the relationship with my father. Everyone has their problems, even the people that seem perfect in your eyes. And that's okay. Thank you, Michael Buckley and Shay.

Alcoholism is a disease. No one chooses to be sick. Thank God he realized he had a problem and is wise enough to give it up totally. “ one drink is too many, a thousand is never enough.” My husband passed away in his forties from his alcoholism. Despite rehab, he could not or would not accept it. He missed his daughters’ weddings, never even saw his grandchildren and, quite frankly, wore us all out worrying about him. To anyone who is an alcoholic and is reading this, stay strong and don’t let anyone or anything cause you to turn to drink again. This disease can be devastating to yourself and everyone who loves you. It often leads to an early death and terrible pain for your loved ones. God bless and take care.

this video is one of the bests I've ever seen!💖 a) two of my first and most favorite youtubers together in a video b) honest and open and real talks and just being yourselves and not tryinh to be just "THE online persona" but the real you instead c) sharing this with all of us i love you guys endlessly. thank you so much for always being there almost 7 years plus and inspiring and helping without maybe even knowing it. you helped shaping me into who i am today. thank you so much for that and being so wonderful and amazing and honest as you are. michael you always made me laugh and think and also introduced me to shay and shay u introduced me to your family and the kinda marriage and family i wanna have so thank you for being there, always. and in case you wanna be off the web some day, you'll be more than welcome to do so as u gave us so much help and happiness and shared so much for all these years and u deserve nothing but the best. thank you! ohhh and internet friends are the best. i met my first 9 years ago.. and then basically every year after i met a new one/the same one and we would visit each othrt in the different countries we're from and it's always been a blessing and a blast.. friends in general are a true blessing but something like this,clicking with someone from another part of the world and actually staying friends for years thats been and years to come is sth amazing u dont get every often. so its a true blessing indeed😊💖 so grateful for everything

i can relate to this heavily because of my dad. I forgave him and i forgive you too. alcoholism is a disease and it’s killer. i just want you to be happy. i don’t care about the vlogs anymore. happiness should always come first before youtube ❤️

This was very motivational. I'm not an alcoholic, but I have weight issues. A lot of what Shay said is true for my problem too. For some reason, just listening to this gave me some hope :)

My family used to be full of functioning alcoholics. I got called uptight when I didn't think they needed to drink at every family function. I've seen it ruin too many lives. I had no clue that Shay drank. Thanks for sharing your story.

I love this side of you Michael, brilliant interviews! Shay I never knew you had an alcohol addiction, I suppose it's because we always see the sunny side of things. I would never had guessed it either. I want you to know I think that makes you even more relateable. Much respect to you :)

When Shay talks about people not even believing in God in CA, and being like "oh cute do you believe in santa, too?" I feel like that was more Kassem than anyone else. That's TOTALLY Kassem. There are TONS of christians in Cali...esp with the huge latino community, tons of catholic christians, too.

Trust me, my family has a long history of alcoholism. Being a functional alcoholic myself, you never really tell. There are moments where every alcoholic slips, but for the most part it's mostly a private thing or they pick their moments to drink a lot like at a party or social gathering. I was surprised that Shay was an alcoholic, but I can see how we overlooked it, glad you're doing better shay. I'm still in the endless loop of "I'll stop tomorrow" or "I'll cut it back to once or twice a week"

Shay.. I had a moment like that - and I've been sober from the addiction I was harnessed to for 15 years. And, you're right, it was like - BAM! I can't say that at the beginning I didn't have weak days - but for the most part THEN and ever since....it's been straight. God Bless you and your family. Stay strong. Michael - great series. Thank you.

People were speculating about Shay drinking for a long time in his earlier days and the speculation had died down until an early blurb for "Fat Dad, Fat Kid" came out and it mentioned Shay detailing his struggles with alcoholism. Obviously that blurb was removed and Shay decided not to write about it. I'm glad Shay has finally decided to come forward with it. I know he wants him and his family to appear perfect and I don't blame him. Many people watch them because they seem to have such a dream life and in many ways they do, but it's important that people know, that the off-camera struggles will always be there and that no one is perfect or without struggle.

growing up in the Mormon church led me to attempt suicide twice because my sexuality. after that i left the church and decided "organized religion isnt my thing". I had alot of anger in my heart towards the adults in the church, and religious people in general. Watching shay helped me forgive, and taught me that its not the religion itself but the people. plus i grew up in a "broken" home so watching, even today helps remind me that I one day will have the family that i have always wanted. along with choosing to be happy is the first step in being happy. I love this series! love you Buck!
