1 month sober today after 20 years drinking. Past 5 years drinking everyday and at work driving all day. How awful is that? I was turning yellow. Feeling great now and lost 1 stone. I will never drink ever again. I'm 43. If you're thinking of stopping that means you need to stop. My relationship with my wife is now on track. You can do it people.

Congrats on the one year without alcohol! Not having alcohol in your system will make the efforts in other areas of your life more likely to stick and make progress. I’m just a random internet stranger, but I hear you. You’ve already done more than many people who get stuck in alcoholism ever do, so you can take more steps too. Making good choices is a lot like not making bad ones, one day at a time. “I won’t drink today” can become “I will make my bed today”. One day at a time. :)

I would never have believed it but I am coming up for 1000 days sober, it seems a life time ago I was constantly drunk, feeling like sh*t all the time, not happy but the only person to blame was me. The strange thing was I had no reason to be unhappy but my 'life' revolved around drinking which made be forget why I was unhappy. I know it doesn't make any sense. I have to admit it was hard to stop drinking but just as I decided that something had to change I found Jae and this channel and I cant tell you how much that helped. I cant lie to you and say it was easy to stop, it wasn't, bearing in mind I had been drinking for 20+ years and seriously heavy drinking for the last 5 of those years, we are talking 2 litres of vodka a week. I have never been run over by a car but I can imagine what it was like a couple of weeks of stopping drinking, every part of my body ached........even my hair !!! It took a lot of will power and inner strength but as time passed it got easier, the aching stopped and I started feeling better. These days I still don't sleep well but I don't wake up with a headache, feeling sick and wondering what I did last night and if I had offended anybody. Will I stay sober forever.....................yes. I like the person I am and that feeling for me is priceless.

308 days here. I was drinking 30-40 drinks per week for 25 years. I rarely got hangovers or got blackout drunk, but I was addicted. I drank almost every night. I basically associated everything fun with beer. I have been in counseling and we decided that I need to go one full year before even answering the question of if I could have a drink again. One thing about never drinking is that I’m in control. Alcohol no longer has any power over me. I just wish it wasn’t so damn popular. My wife is hella supportive and doesn’t drink around me but damn the messages to drink from both advertisers and other people on social situations really make it tough. Bottom line is I really really like beer but I don’t want alcohol to have power over my decisions again. Nothing scares me more than the thought of it being 10:00PM on a Wednesday night and I’m getting a drink because I can’t control it. F that! Peace everyone and good luck.

This message went to the moon and back.. I won't trade sobriety for a hungover and poor decisions anymore.. thanks brother for doing what you do..💯

As of today I am 43 days sober. Quit cold turkey. I was up to drinking about a 5th EVERYDAY for many years without a day off. I did not think I was going to be able to do it. But you start out by going 1 hr without it to 1 day without and keep going. You can do it.

I was doing the same thing bro for 17 years .. until my mental health turned to shit .. I’m not 8 months sober today 🙏

I have been sober for a few months now. I have done this before; gone several months but then slid back. The difference is this time I do not have a drill sergeant in my head telling me that I can't drink, that I must get through the day, that I must not drink tomorrow. Instead, I have a very simple attitude: I am not drinking today. As for tomorrow? We'll see. It's simple. It takes the pressure off. Gradually, of course, everyday is a little bit better than the previous day. I get good nights of sleep, I get through the day feeling generally very good. When things go south, they don't bother me anywhere near as much. It's worth it. And it's worth it for you to do the same. Just keep following his videos.

7 months sober, was working in the yard yesterday and can barely move. Not as bad as drinking a bottle of rum, heads not pounding. Getting things done does make me feel better.

On day 129 with one minor hiccup (which I described in the last video's comment so won't go into here). Today I plan to jog, bake some bread and work in the garden.

Thank you Jae. You are a great motivator to stay sober which I have now been for just over three months. Being sober I think alot about what I could have done differently in my 60 years of letting alcohol steal so much of my life. But I am trying hard not to look back and just live in the present and be grateful for everything I have. There are a hundred things I want to do but am starting with getting in better shape. I am learning Qi Gong and started a Tai Chi class with my daughter.

I’ll be 50 days sober tomorrow and after 30 days, I began hanging out with friends again. Alcohol will always be there but I can’t pretend like it won’t be. My friends drink and I’m their DD to get them home safe. Do I miss it? Sure, but some of them mask their pain with it like I used to. I’m confident enough to say no now but I know everyone is different. I hope everyone is learning their strengths and weaknesses in their sobriety journeys and that you all choose what’s best for you ✌🏻

I do not have to be sober forever, I want to be sober forever. That's why I only care about this day. Just for today and that makes the journey easier. Looking forward my first year clean of alcohol (September, 1st) and wondering how am I going to celebrate. Something crazy like a party at the beach or a travel with my wife. I am very happy because I am studying for competitive exams to work and who was going to tell me that at my age I would be studying.

Hey everyone currently 23 day's sober it's a long weekend here in Canada and I'm going to my parent's to help with some chores there's gonna be drinking going on and usually I'm in the center of it, this time I plan on being sober and coming back home tonight, I have a date tomorrow and if I show up hungover and looking like crap I'm sure it won't go well? Stay strong everyone and waking up on a Saturday without a hangover is worth not drinking the night before, thank Jae another great video

Just hit my 90 days this past week and your videos really helped during the rough spots.

Im at day 20, after 25 years of drinking, the past year drinking daily, and “falling asleep” on the couch nearly every night. Your videos are my daily motivation, and joirnal prompt, reminding me why its all worth it. I feel like i can easily be sober today, but I forget sometimes that im planning on a forever sober future for myself when i envision future events. i hope to still be sober on future events, like the holidays with my family, who love to drink, or travels with friends, who like to drink. So far, ive been successful drinking sodas or mocktails at social events, and felt great.

2 weeks alcohol free, and accepted job offer out of state…new adventures await and in sobriety I am facing my karma.

3 month's ago I finally got myself out of a bad living situation and distanced myself from some toxic roommates and into a new house, 2 months ago I finished the hardest semester of school ive ever taken and aced the class and got my electricians license which ive been pursuing for almost 6 years, and 1 month ago I finally made the decision to get sober, im still fairly early on in my sobriety journey and ive had what feels like a thousand attempts prior but it feels like a switch was flipped in my head this time. If i could accomplish what I did while being a "functional alcoholic" for years, now i think how far can I go sober. It hasnt been easy still, the first week was hell but now i feel like a new person. My sleep is incredible, my bond with my young son is much stronger, my productivity is much higher and im not as depressed and angry anymore. I feel free again.

Decades long Weekend Warrior but using distractions/cooking/cleaning/music etc. The apt, walls may get washed today Lol Struggling but not giving up.

Thank you brother 🙏

Thanks for video Jae! Stoked to be sober. Day 506. Definitely don't want to go back to daily or any drinking ever. Still doing morning zoom/in-person AA meeting, daily AA Mastery Journal, eating way better, making sleep a priority as well as consistently working out. Really can't remember feeling any better. I drank since age 13'ish until rehab at age 55. Also was able, thanks to applying same 12 step program to quit Copenhagen and Marlboros... did that for 43 years and nicotine-free day 112 today. The biggest key for me is surrendering every part of my life to Jesus and praying that His will be done instead of mine and to help some and harm none if possible.

I tried drinking again in 2019 after close to 6 years of sobriety. Steered me down pretty much the same path I was on before that and it cost me another 4 years. But I learned a lot about myself along the way, especially since I decided to live my life sober (...again) 8-9 months ago. Now I'm even more determined to keeping myself on track. Seeing what alcohol does to people in my private life as well as my job as a social worker really helps, too in a weird way. I guess I needed to experience all that stuff one more time after a 6-year-long break, I really hope you don't!

Today is day 1. I'm going to do yoga in the morning, then I'm gonna go to the gym. Gonna do some drumming, play video games, eat healthy and practice some duolingo

Coming here, I am reminded of the misery that was my drinking. Society discourages our openly sharing these things, while drinking is commonly and openly shared. That is where we can feel alone and possibly that we are unnecessarily depriving ourselves of a "good time". Coming here, to AA and other alcohol recovery spaces brings me back to reality. It pulls the curtain back to show me I am absolutely not alone and absolutely not wasting my time recovering from this very real injury. 34 years of drinking, 201 days alcohol fee. Thank you Jae for all you do!

You need to post more often.. whenever I’m about to slip I look for a video … you do great stuff!

Thank you Jae. I am 143 days free today. You have helped me massively. May God bless you. All the best.

There is nothing like the peace you get with sobriety. I never want to have another hangover as long as I live and I had them every day. I’m almost 8 years sober. Sometimes not drinking at the beginning feels very boring but in reality , it’s serenity. I’m married to a heavy drinker so it can be done even in difficult circumstances. One of the most important things is to change EVERYTHING. Those drinking friends are not your friends.and You have zero business being in a bar. After the dust settles, start exercising and filling the empty time. God will help you if you do your part.

58 days. Started with just trying to see if I could go 10 days. That was my goal. 10 days. Just testing myself. Day 3 was hard, day 8 was hard. Then I completed day 10! I did it! Felt great, friends were perplexed, so I just kept going. I come here to this channel to read how everyone is doing and it helps to spur me on. Hang in there everyone! We got this!!!

One of my friends told me that early on in her sobriety, anytime she would get an alcohol craving, she would just say, “hurray! I don’t have to be a slave to that poison anymore! I’m free from that prison!” How beautifully simple. I hear this message wholeheartedly, sir. Once you break free from that poison prison, why in the world would you want to go “back to where you came from”?

I'm treating this like getting over a bad relationship. I don't regret the good times, I reflect on the bad times and I'm committed to not getting into another bad relationship again. By working on myself, I make myself stronger against falling in love with the wrong drink. It's taken me half the time of my past relationship, to "get over it", so I'm using that as an arbitrary goal. 💪 ...pick Bears, not beers?! 🤪😄

463 days sober today and it’s going to be the last I’m giving in.

138 days! 🎉 One day at a time...

2 Years for me thanks to this man’s easy approach. The real reason I quit alcohol was my micro biome… and yes I wanted to shed a few pounds. I didn’t hit rock bottom and had very successful professional life as well as amazing marriage. I “planed “ to try “THIS” for a month… but find out I feel like a superwoman with energy of a teenager and passion for life I used to have, happier than ever. I helped so many others to discover sober life magic just by being an example. And NO I am not turning my train back 🤣

Almost 2 months sober. All glory to God. 14 lbs down and excited for my gym session later today. Thank you Jesus.

I’m 83 days*** (thanks Jae!) alcohol sober and 12 days totally sober sticking to it. Initially I used cannabis to wean myself off alcohol- which was okay- but I promised myself I’d only use one cart then be done. I actually didn’t even finish the cart before I threw it away. Today my friend offered me another one and I denied. I hated the brain fog that was developing again. Summer is tough to not drink- my first one. I’ve loved the patio drink and smoke after work on a nice day but alas, I can do better for myself! Today I’m going to bike ride to a new kava place. I’m struggling a bit with sugar and I’m also motivated to watch my spending… it’s a lot, but I’m patient, I’m persistent. I really want this improved trajectory for my life! It isn’t a goal, it’s a trajectory- a life style (Atomic Habits). We can do this!!❤

27 days sober!! I feel amazing

For me, I do. At least in regards to alcohol I just can NOT get back into it. Ive tried, and failed in the past. I built up bad habits in the past AND it's just a very destructive substance so there's seemingly no chance of being able to "manage" it for me and the risk in "trying" again is so high its not even close to being an option for me. I just...sooner or later ..use it for everything from "I feel a bit bored" to celebration to mourning....and then I am back in that addictive loop again. There's plenty of cool shit to do in this world beside alcohol it just took me a while to realize that ..and to see alcohol for the highly advertised garbage it really is at the end of the day. Every single month I see a post in my sober circles about someone who is in a life threatening condition as a result of alcohol abuse. Every year I hear about another death in the sober community near me due to a relapse or organ failure. The writing is on the wall to me. Whatever choices you make...take care of yourself and don't abuse your body! You deserve better than that for sure!!

I want to stay sober forever because alcohol doesn‘t do anything positive. Sobriety is wonderful and a lot of fun. Actually 2 months sober now, I am becoming the person I want to be. Thank you Jay for the encouragement. Lilith from Germany

I drank for 20 years and have been sober now for 18 months. I choose feeling better for a better life, so I will choose to stay sober!

A great video which really hit home today, the sun was out, day off work and I got tempted! But then I remembered TODAY I M NOT DRINKING and I filled my day with some positivity and then this video popped up 😊 to reinforce my sober journey. Just passsd 204 days sober and I could write a book on how I ve changed for the better and what I can now do compared to what I used to be like pre sobriety. It hasnt been easy, everyday is a gift and a challenge. Stick with it everyone! If becoming sober is good for you thats great, if not thats great too. And lastly thanks Jae...again 😊

We are all imperfect. The restart is more important than the stumble.

Man I appreciate this video. I was.just questioning my sobriety I've got 3 months and I was just thinking I could just have one but then this video popped up. Thanks brother

That meditation book called 30 Days to Sobriety by Harper Daniels helped a lot, as well as The Easy Way by Carr. The sober life is a thousand times better than the alternative.

I plan to pray, study The Bible and love my wife more than I did yesterday

Jae, thank you for your daily support. I am 137 days sober. Not my first time (...again), but this time I have you and my trust in God for daily motivation and, what a difference this time! You have been so helpful with this, and I thank you.

Being sober and starting to be healthy made me more grateful for what I have. Being able to have a safe space with a comfortable bed where I can sleep with the peaceful sound of my A/C while there are people out there who don't even have that.

AAAAAAAAMEN! People really don't understand what a LUXURY it is to be able to climate control your home. My family is from the Philippines. We had to get water from a well, and heat up the water on the stove if we wanted warm water for bathing. #grateful

I don't have to, but I want to. I want nothing to do with that poison. Before I used to think "how can I go a full life without drinking?" Now the thought of even ONE drink gives me anxiety. Thank you for all you do. This channel has helped me immensely 💖💕🩵

Still going strong at 277 days sober and still have that unopened 12 pack of White Claw in my fridge for just a tad longer than the number of my days sober. This was an excellent video Jae. Keep them coming!!

Every time I’d go back to drinking I’d feel terrible, I couldn’t drink without feeling crappy once I turned like 30. So now I don’t even think about it, the alcohol buzz truly isn’t worth the 2-3 day hangover and purposely making myself sick.

I'm convinced that the real healing is ascending beyond "how long do I need to stay sober" to "I'm happily sober" I've found a massive benefit to incorporating blended veggies + plant protein powders for the sober journey. A boost in wellbeing that will likely surprise most if they haven't really tried it out. I upped my protein dramatically to about over 70% of my bodyweight in grams from r mostly plant based proteins and it feels like a night and day shift in my overall wellbeing. A game changer. I'm curious if there's science behind this strategy to sobriety, feels beyond just supportive but transformative.

I am very excited to say that I’m on my four weeks and one day sober! I took it seriously six months ago and have been up and down but more up than down and now great sober streak! I have no intentions of going back to drinking ethanol! Sleep is better, I am more productive, definitely more money in my pocket! and I’m able to be the version of myself that I believe God made me to be and that everybody else enjoys me being! Thank you Jay for your videos and yes it is possible to have a better life without alcohol! I thank God for the strength and that He has never left me.

Tired of being in pain and throwing away days to recover from alcohol 8 days sober and I’m done .

First week was the hardest for me !!! You are amazing don’t give up 💪🏻

Great video as always im nearly at 150 days and is has flown by. Its the end of the day here in the uk and i exercised for three hours with a ninety minute hike in the forest and saw some lovely birds of prey. The motto of just not drinking today is great. It is definitely getting easier as time goes on and your videos always help. Thank you!

In a week I will be 11 months sober. I wrote on your channel when I had been sober for 2 days. I was scared and excited, but you offered kind words and encouragement. Thank you so much for that

I feel blessed to wake up sober and alive. I made the right decision last year even if it was a rocky start. Camping without whiskey and beer is still good fun.

Day number 44 and I willl never look back I’m so happy to be here I wish everyone a safe day and a sober day god bless

5 months & 12 days no alcohol. It’s been getting harder lately so I returned to this video.

I’m going to celebrate my twin daughters’ graduation from high school tomorrow without alcohol and I’m so excited 🎉

220 days in and I feel great!

Thanks Jae. It will be 3 years Oct 18. Your videos were critical to my success the first year when I marked every day on the calendar and watched your vids twice a day. Seeing your bloated and sad face on your day one…and your lean, and happy face after 30 days proved your health claims and inspired me. And knowing that you quit, failed, and were trying again made you very relatable. Thanks again.

😭🫂👉😁 KEEP US UPDATED ON YOUR 3 YEARS 🙏

7 months now sober...I'm sober today one day at time

Sometimes I feel like I'm just taking up space. Like I'm a burden on the planet and my existence has no meaning other than working, drinking and sleeping.

One of the main reasons to quit drinking ✅

Dang what’s the question??? Of course sober life is now just a lifestyle for me. Never heard anyone say they hated quit drinking 👍

Preproduction prep for my next short film. 172 days sober. Sober forever !

Going to bed sober is the best

I caved yesterday 😔. I have to start over again. I pray it sticks this time

I really appreciated when Jae said you don’t have to go back to zero of you have a misstep. Your countdown just has an asterisk. Consider your average. Keep on going, you still have momentum!

These Videos always help me from slipping back into my old habits---and remind me what I escaped from.

288 days today. At new years I promised myself minimum 1 year of staying sober. I'm not an alcoholic yet I drank too much. The one year is coming up and I noticed it bothers me. I feel like I soon will have to make a choice again. If I go back to drinking it would be almost never but with everyone around me drinking a lot I think that might not be realistic. Think I'm having real doubts for the first time since stopping. I quit with a temporary time in mind but I might just keep it going that way. Yeah why not. Next goal. Staying sober until I graduate my masters.

Goodness, thank you for this!! I feel like my brain got a massage & reset for the weekend, your words are very healing and inspiring!! Your approachable demeanor and realistic words are helpful more than you know - sending you heartfelt thanks, Jae!!!

I know it sounds silly, but I cannot bring myself to stop drinking because it is so hard to fall asleep. But then again, when I have a week off of work, I still can't bring myself to stop either. I wish I could do it.
