Things like this can seem sad but it's actually one of the best day's of a person's life when they can have the guts to do this for themselves. I honestly wish something worse would have happened to me in the last few years because I've been drinking out of control. If I would have gotten a DUI or something, I'd be mad, but I would have been FORCED to quit. A blessing in disguise. Alcohol causes more problems than illegal drugs even. I hate it and I plan to get sober again so I can have my own life back.

myspace the real Joey at www.myspace.com/xsportjoe HE ACTUALLY RESPOND's

huh that is sooooooo sad i was cryin wit u good luck Joey and im behind you 100% dont ever look back. seriously, like Bry saud **** everybody in ur past you r lookin forward to a bigger better and brighter future i luv you an the very best of luck to you and what really struck me was that you had to ask everyone for a hug. Damn bry i thought u were better than that since you like him.

Sorry to sound like a jerk, but Joey seems fraud to me.

and what really bothered me was that he had to ask everyone except for Dave for a hug? Dave just went up in my book. and i thought that maybe Bri wouldve cried because she seems to be the one that cared about Joey but nope. Dave looked like he was close to tears at the end there. Kim and Sarah didn't even seem to care! like he was wasting their time or something. honestly the only people i really like in the hosue are Joey, Dave, and Bri. Joey really is a sweet guy, he was just in the wrong place. again, hope your doing good Joey, and i hope we can see you again!

i was crying when i first saw this. but im happy for joey because hollywood really wasnt the right place for him. i do miss him though, he was a really sweet guy. hope your doing good joey!

Hey I'm just glad the abuse didn't go on for a life-time like most!! Much luv Joey I wen't through that hell for 6yrs and still have to look at family and friends who are still there.

shut up

OMG!!! I was soo touched by Joey's letter. I cried my friggin' eyes out. I really hope that he is successful in sobriety. Hollywood was definately the wrong place for him to be while trying to be sober. Best of luck Joe!! You can so do this!!

Joey,
I hope you read this.
I think yerr a great man who made a great choice.
You had yerr little brother in mind & I know it.
you did a great thing that not meny others could do with help.
CONGRATLITIONS and I wish you the best of luck

this is reallly touchin... he had to do it for him self...

This was really touching. You could tell he really wanted to turn his life around, and I, as long as a lot of people I'm sure, am very proud of him. Kimberly seemed very insensitive, and that was really lame.

It takes a person who is really ready to change their lives and even a stronger person to take initiative do the best for them when others might do otherwise. I still HATE Kimberly though- she seems so fake- like 'when is he gonna be done so I can finally wash my face'. Her attitude just seems so off putting! Uhh!!!

My fave line is what u gonna do when the 12 steps run wild on you! Ha that's poetic!

can anymore real than this .....this scene was only real world thing i saw from this season

Joey is the man if you ask me. I mean, you gotta do what you gotta do to make your life better. Its good to see someone take the initiative
