My biggest tip is: Quitting alcohol won't open the gates of heaven and let you in; it will open the gates of hell and let you out. You probably won't win the lottery or instantly get a model body. However, you will be able to make the daily consistent effort that could take you wherever you want to go. It really is amazing being sober. btw, I stole the quote and have no idea from where :P.

You know where you want to be, you know what you need to do, and sometimes the universe works in mysterious ways! sometimes a curse can actually be a blessing. be grateful that the universe intervened, and don't take it for granted! What if one day after this life is over you have to have a face-to-face meeting with the creator, and they say to you " remember in late August of 2023 when you had that craving for alcohol, that was us that killed your car. You were just one more day away from beating this addiction for good. and you took the opportunity and ran with it. And that's why you're here now, surrounded by eternal love with all the people that you've ever known and loved. welcome" ♥️♥️♥️

We are all imperfect. Many people have to try several times before they get the motivation to stay quit for a long time. If you fall down seven times, get up eight times.

When you've been sober for a few days or maybe a week, you get out of the habit of drinking. Habit is half the problem in my opinion.

My tip of getting ready is to firstly notify the closes friends and family what you are struggling with and what they can do, so they can support you during those first days that are super tough. And so that first advice drives directly to the second one which is battle with withdrawal symptoms. Here good diet, a lot of water and vitamins and some physic activity help but it’s okay to feel strong hunger to get back to drinking. That’s where friends and family kick in. It’s really crucial to accept that there is no shame in calling them and talking through the feelings you have in that moment or asking for help. That even small talk with them really heals and in fact it shows your strength and determination in fighting for your sober self, which is absolutely outstanding

Hello all! There’s no better time for me than now. It’s 5am Chicago USA time and I woke up freaking out. I started drinking early waiting for my husband to be home shortly. I was sitting by the fire pit in my yard just waiting… and drinking. I’ve been on a 3 day bender and was drinking to normalize at first, but just couldn’t slow down. I got so depressed. He finally got home well after midnight. I went to bed shortly after and woke an hour ago freaked out. Head spinning, heart pounding, and the anxiety. I hopped on YT looking for exactly this and I’m so glad I came across his channel. Of course I’ve been watching, sipping on beers and smoking cigs to stave off the inevitable for a few more hours and get some sleep. I’ve been waiting for the right time to stop. This particular video spoke to me and makes me feel more ready to try than I’ve felt in a long time. I appreciate how candid he is. You guys I’m feeling I can make a change. I’m happy to be part of the group.

Hey group, Recently got sober again. I went 7 months last year then thought well im fine i can control my drinking. Started back and realized boom no motivation, feel like crap, stopped getting up lift weights before work, was not the best dad and version of myself I could be. Then my wife was hospitalist with pancretitis and her liver was in trouble as well. I decided enough is enough and I stopped entirety and honestly have no desire to ever drink again. I find a lot of support and positivity from this channel and im glad i came across it. I have a question for anyone out there that might have some good advice. My wife is not as positive as I am and she sort of feels like she is missing out now because she can never drink again. Despite me pointing out the freedom we now have and how much better she will feel once she fully recovers. Im having trouble getting her to seek out support and her finding a no judgemental group she can relate to. Any advice?

I would say to check out the IAMSOBER app. they host many online meetings per week and they may just have a few groups she can relate to. as we mentioned the video, it's important not to get trapped in the victim mentality and feeling like you're some sort of alcohol martyr. It's really easy to sulk and negativity and feeling the fear of missing out. when the reality is you can literally do everything sober except for three things: 1. Get drunk 2. did a DUI 3. have a hangover 😎

I'm a social worker and I specialize in addiction counseling. And yet I only managed to quit smoking (for like the 30th time) three weeks ago and I'm trying to get myself completely sober from alcohol. I don't use any illicit drugs, but I feel like a hypocrite sometimes. In a way I think my experience makes me a better counselor because I understand where my clients are coming from, but something still seems off :/

One tip I can give, based on my recent personal experience, is pick another aspect of your life that needs improvement, and focus on fixing it. For me, I went on the keto diet for 8 months and lost 50 pounds. I've maintained my weight for the 3 months I've been off keto (still keeping the carbs moderately low). More importantly, my keto journey put me down many rabbit holes regarding topics such as inflammation, metabolic heath, gut heath, carb/sugar addiction, etc. Anyway, I've been very proud of that success. Took a lot of dedication and strength. So, as I begin this sobriety journey dot dot dot again, I think to myself, "Nick, you can do this! You have the strength. You proved it with your weight loss/better health journey." Really motivates me.

Get any and all booze out the house and replace it with zero-proof alternatives. Polar has a great ginger-lime mule flavor, and if you want a ranch water, just squirt some agave and lime juice into your seltzer. You can even get oak chips and soak them in water, and use it in place of bourbon for hot toddies and other bourbon based cocktail alternatives

I’m three years sober now. Yes, quitting alcohol saved my life. I got three times more time for myself, my health improved, and my brain fog went away. But as someone has mentioned in the comments, it does open the gates to hell. All the problems you were looking away from, running away from, ignoring by being drunk strikes you. You can either run away again, or realize why you were drinking and face it. I did the later and hit rock bottom. I don’t regret it at all, because all there is left for me is to climb up this ditch. Every day is a struggle, but I am striving. It’s the best thing I’ve ever done.

What did you learn in your 5 days sober? What did you learn from your drinking detour?

I have found when I have a full tummy I do not want to drink.

Bro MistaTea is still sober

Please remember there is more than one way to deal with frustration, anger, sadness, etc. Please use positive methods instead of self destructive ones.

Have quit drinking many times sometimes its 4 month in a row sometimes 2 month and recently i quit drinking for 31 days but my question is how to stay permanently away from alcohal bcs after 2 3 months whenever i drink again its again change into weekly or daily habbit.. why that happened and now i feel low bcs whenever i start my journey to quit drinking my mind says u will drink again like you did again.. pls help me to get out this circle

Im trying to be my best self, but part of me is trying to go sober in the hope that someone I drove away by drinking will come back. Is that a wrong thing to hope for?

The person that you drove away is your best self. work on attaining that first before you worry about somebody else's feelings 😎 when you do it for you, that's what matters most

I tried something like that it wouldn't work for me went on vivitrol and relapsed after a month drank a little niqul other day and thought I was going to die because had vivitrol in my system never even thought about the alcohol in niqul even think i was seeing things

sounds like a plane ticket and hotel to Hawaii every year down the toilet 🤷

Pretty sure I spend around 5K a year on booze. I’m about to finish day 2 of sobriety.

@@GettingSoberAgain You are absolutely right. Thank you. On Day 4 now

The 10 method wouldn’t work for me. No way once I start drinking all reason goes out the window. And counting isn’t an option

So whatcha gonna DO brother??

Found this channel yesterday. Starting my journey. I work at home, I drink at home. Im alone 99% of the time. I’m drinking 3- 4 glasses of wine /night to “unwind” and numb the stress. I’m sick of it. My health issues I’ve noticed - high blood pressure, inflammation, I’ve developed swollen finger joints- like round knobs on the side of my finger joints. Any added stress is a trigger - 🤷🏻‍♀️ Im stretched to the limit of my coping skills right now. I’ve got to get better ❤️‍🩹 and live
