Welcome back mate! You are one of the main reasons I started my sim racing channel and have been a huge inspiration over the years. At a time in my life when I didn't have a rig and couldn't do it myself I would experience it vicariously through your uploads and get my fix thanks to your shenanigans. Needless to say, the 'Matt' preset in CrewChief is the only one that gets any use as I can't think of anyone better suited to letting me know when I have a car on the outside. That said, as happy as I am to see you back racing, sim racing and KZitem are always secondary to your own personal wellbeing, so to hear you're in a better headspace and have managed to ditch the toxicity of your job is the much more awesome news to take from this video. When racing and video making feels like a chore or a burden that's when you know it's time to give it a break so I'm glad you saw this coming and didn't succumb to the burnout that many other people have. Thanks for sharing, only good times ahead, looking forward seeing what you get up to!

Finally this past black Friday weekend I got a wheel and pedals and I've started with Assetto Corsa. It's challenging me for sure, but thanks to your videos I know that a normal guy with a normal budget can do a lot in simracing.

It’s great to see you’re still doing well. I’ve felt like tweeting you this story but would always get nervous that I’d be bothering you. Thankfully a comment sections is easier to get lost in. I want to thank you. Years ago I came across an, at the time, recently uploaded iRacing video with the title “I dare you to go high, you don’t have the testicular fortitude.” It was the first time I’d seen iRacing and it made me fascinated with he sim. I’d watch your videos consistently and would dip into other creators but I always found my way back. Even if the content wasn’t iRacing series like TXR or the history videos around the split were great and showed new games we didn’t have in my region or a story of motorsport I never knew. Last year I finally had myself in a financial position to be able to begin on iRacing on my shitbox laptop. Last month I finally bought a real PC and I have a very close group of friends that all race on iRacing in leagues with each other or just helping during official races. This was as a result of a fun Indycar video all those years ago and I honestly want to thank you for the positive effect you’ve had on my life. This last year has had some of the most enjoyable racing I’ve ever had and with a group of people I would probably be no where near as close with if not for your videos having sparked an interest in iRacing. Everyone gets burnt out if it feels like you need to do something that isn’t giving you the same joy it once did so there’s no shame in taking breaks especially when things in the outside world are taking a toll too. I hope you’re able to put out content that you enjoy making above all else. There’s no obligation to make videos if you find yourself not enjoying it once more

It increases testosterone, lowers stressors. Cuz dopamine - testosterone are tied together if one goes up so does the other or vice versa.

I have been thinking about you and checked in a month ago and saw you had been gone awhile. Something told me to check in again today and here you are ! Great to have you back dude ! About 6 years ago I found myself in a situation like yours and it was a bummer because the company I worked at had been great for a long time. But then, new owners took over, and things changed. I had worked with the old owner for 29 years and he was a good guy so it was tough to leave because he was still at the company even after it changed hands. But it was obvious I had to make a change, because I had also gotten very tired of the type of work I was doing. So, anyway, that was 6 years ago. Life has improved a lot since then, 2 new part time jobs, more time to enjoy myself, better cash flow, a wonderful woman to spend time with, the list goes on. Glad you're back, believe me, things can improve. :)

Normally I'm not the kind of guy that would be replying to videos, but for whatever reason i might change it this time. I read through a few of the other comments, recapping what you said in the video and just want my two cents out there to maybe give you something in return for all the years of awesome videos you have put out. And if it's just a small smile, which I'll never know off, I'll take it. Obviously i can best speak for myself, my first reaction when I've seen this video up was "no way! It's an empty box video" and stopped in my tracks immediately to watch it, no questions asked. Along the stories by some of the folks here, which you inspired to get into Simracing, i was already interested in it before i found you. But what your videos always were and are for me is an escape into something that just relaxes and takes the speed out of the daily life we all live. Your videos always have been so natural, upfront and honest, it's one of the few channels that i would never even suspect to have a script for the voice over cause it more feels like shower thoughts or a grandpa story to me, where everyone just shushes and listens to. What I'm trying to say is, you are doing an awesome job with these for many people, including me. And although i can only guess how tough it would be if people are just bugging you in game with your famous intro line, I'm sure many of them didn't mean no harm. And i hope you get the fun of having an audience back instead of this being a burden. Because in the end, everyone around here is here for you and you only and I'm sure I'm not the only one that will be craving for another video, no matter the time it takes for it to pop up. Damn, someone is cutting onions around here, need to find out who 😜

I left a 19 yr career with a retail company for lack of time with my family. I asked to take on a different (lateral) role which would allow me more time with my family. Denied. So i searched for a few months, and nothing just fit right. Ive always wanted to be a mechanic, studied it in high school, trade school even went as far as graduating from Nascar Technical Institute. But never did anything with it. So i prayed about it. Im not the super religious type, but i try. Anyways, an ad for a mechanic job came up, the pay was close to my salary at the retail company and i had a bunch of tools, they offered so i took it. Now, not a single day feels like work. It was scary as hell leaving my 19 yr career to work in an environment ive only ever hobbied in but it all worked out. I love working on cars so much the only part that feels like work is waking up in the morning and going home tired. Pray about it. Or not but just a suggestion my guy. Also, i dont have any experience so take what i say next with a grain of salt. There's this old movie called "The little giants". This girl is a running back on her team and everyone calls her "Ice Box". But this boy she really likes, she wants him to call her "Becky". I feel like you may (or maybe not) have a little resentment towards "Empty Box" catching all the fame? Maybe its time for the world to meet Matt Orr? Im not sure, but i do know you're very talented, your ability to talk, entertain and describe everything while driving isnt in very many people. I think a great characteristic comparison would be Top Gear's, Jeremy Clarckson. I believe you could pull of a career like that or something of the likes. Maybe car reviews or something. Idk. Sorry for the 150 page book. Just wanted to drop my thoughts.

So, the first "real job" I ever had is just about the same story. I worked for a company that I couldn't stand, all while doing things that made me visibly angry for 6 years. I eventually got into the classic "long enough to become the villain" situation. I switched jobs about 2 years ago and haven't looked back. I've been much happier and much better off. Unless you've lived it, it's hard to understand how exhausting that can be. The last thing you want to do is go home to your "2nd job".

Hey Matt, I'd like to open up and say I've had similar problems. I even had to stay at the hospital for my problems. There they gave me the best advice, it was professional help so I'd hope I paid for the best, the advice was: make goals. Make daily, monthly and yearly goals. The farther out into the future the goals the better. But achieving short-term goals is also important so make them realistic ie: do laundry, shower, brush teeth et cetera. Keeping to your goals and achieving short term goals will keep you motivated and satisfied with daily life. The next best advice, I hate to say it, truly is exercise. I do light cardio endurance. I can't stand running. As you can see in my profile picture I ride Mountain bikes. When I feel bad I can't enjoy anything, even sim racing which is also my hobby of choice. By forcing myself to do endurance cardio I intentionally put myself through physical stress. The worse I feel, the longer I exercise. When I return home from cardio endurance exercise all I want to do is relax and get back on the sim rig. And when I do I feel like I deserve to relax. This is all anecdotal but it has worked for me. Third best advice, also hate to say it, but no more porn. Third party organizations are monitoring all porn traffic, and neighborhood watch groups are informed about porn addicts in every locale across the US. Also, too much dopamine from climaxing daily can cause the brain to be desensitized to normal dopamine production causing dopamine deficiency. I'd advise removing porn from anyone's life, and reducing climaxing to once a month or less. Lastly, much of human mood is dependent on daily or even hourly thoughts. Fill your thoughts with meditation on life and positive thoughts to keep your mood focused on life. I suggest stoic mantras from Marcus Aurelius or other stoic masters that focus on life and endurance. I send my love to you Matt, that your days be filled with thought that encourage life in you and those around you.

I’m glad you are back. Kind of thought your situation was about what you described. Dealing with the celebrity status that comes along with an audience can be tough on anyone. I’m married to someone that kind of fell into a certain amount of celebrity. Other than a radio show she does once a month she detests it and everything that comes with it. Always having to be “on” when in public is grating. I hope you can find the balance you need. Running for your way to escape isn’t great for anyone’s mental health. And clearly the last thing you really want is to draw even more attention to yourself but if you do ever need someone we are all here for you. I am sure there are dozens of people here that would jump in the car and drive several hours just to sit and have a drink while you vented it all out. And whether you ever decide to do something like that or not, knowing it’s there should be at least a little comfort.

Nothing is worth doing if you're not actually enjoying doing it - even if you force yourself to do it, it will either show that you're not enjoying it, or it will make you downright hate the thing, or both. And nothing in life is more important than being at least reasonably happy and at peace with oneself.

I used to follow your videos and I never thought you were through these ordeals... I'm glad you're getting back and with a better mental health. I hope it only improves from now on!

Btw I always felt like it must have been sth like you described - These kinds of things can typically cause those breaks, I know I'm working at a company where I'm experiencing sth similar, unfortunately. About to go and change jobs early next year, if things don't improve. Wish me luck!

We all experience burnout and most of us have "been there" as far as a job situation goes! You don't have to apologize for that! It's always good to see more videos from you though!

Hey! You're not dead! All good, I ain't mad, I'm glad. Understandable if the majority of your waking hours over the past few years have been spent in a place that makes you feel like crap Anyway, welcome back. Hope you enjoy getting back into the swing of things, and if not, that's okay too

I can understand the job effecting your mental health. I worked for a place for 17 years. Swapped jobs in march and it has been the best thing I could of ever done for my own health.

As time went on and the hobby got more and more competitive and less and less fun, your content always had a way of reminding me why I got into it in the first place. Regardless of what the future holds for you Matt, thank you for showing us so many times why sim racing is a blast.
