123 days sober and I usually don't even think about drinking. BUT, when I see videos like this, trashing alcohol, I suddenly get an urge to DEFEND it!!! "WHAT ABOUT THAT BOOZEY, COZY, PEACEFUL FEEEEEEELING?!?!?!?!" LOL. it's weird for sure. But one thing I DEFINITELY can say is that I constantly felt mad, or guilty, or ashamed, or depressed about myself when I was drinking, asking "Why aren't i strong enough to CONTROL my drinking?" and "How much damage is this doing to me?" "Why aren't I stronger???" My self esteem and my sense of power have definitely increased and these feelings have positively impacted my health, my house, my job, my insights about my problems., and THAT is freaking priceless. I have HOPE now. I LOVE having hope.

Alcohol pretended to be my friend for 25 years. It lured me in with false promises. In reality it was my master. I was being dragged on a leash towards my next drink. The only thing that alcohol brought into my life was immense suffering. I am so grateful God released me from the obsession to drink. As of today I am 4 years 8 months and 25 days sober. 🥳 Great video Jae ♐️

But I'll start again, the hangover won't be so bad this time probably.

This video was a wake up call for me, I did 5 months sober not long ago but had my first slip up in February this year, that 5 months was easily the best 5 months of my life, after my first slip up I fell back into doing it every weekend and I’ve become that anxious unconfident version of myself I was before I went sober, I’m 3 weeks sober now and I can’t wait to get back to that point only this time I’m never going back. I learnt so many lessons about myself during that 5 months, I was mentally bulletproof, beaming with positive energy inspiring those around me, shocked at the new version that I’d become. I’ve slipped back into my old ways but I know what it feels like to be 5 months sober, and that feeling is the best feeling I’ve ever known, time to get my life back, my happiness back, and get rid of this crippling anxiety and unstable emotions❤

I'm ready to end my toxic relationship with alcohol. I celebrated a year sober last spring and thought I would be able to casually drink, now I'm back to where I was if not worse. Just started a new job and have been stressed but I'm trying to stay strong as this position is a great opportunity. Thank you for your videos, they have been helpful.

Ive been a binge drinker on and off for about 7 years now, never really drank everyday but there were many weeks when that was the case and when i do drink the moment that first drop passes my lips it feels like im incapable of stopping. Early on it did feel like it helped ease some of the anxiety and pressure in my daily life but the last year or so more and more often its become clear that it only makes it worse. Ive quit what feels like a million times and i even spent a full year sober in 2020 but ive been struggling ever since i started again. I recently moved away from a toxic living situation and im better off financially as well. And I think im finally in the right head space to quit for good now. 3 days sober (again) currently and so far so good, im fighting some cravings and my sleep has been rough the last few nights, but i know it will get easier with time.

Strength and peace to you. May you be sober, safe and strong and sane

On day 129 with one hiccup (*). Two weeks ago I went to an out of state wedding and had a couple at the reception. The next day feeling shards of guilt and disappointment, I watched the relapse video and processed. It really was like a brief encounter with a toxic ex, and while you think if things might be different, eventually the baggage overcomes the nostalgia. Even at the time I wondered if I really wanted this, which is probably why I had a couple and not six times a couple, as I would've in the past. Strangely, it reinforced not wanting to drink, though I'm glad I don't have anymore weddings on the horizon.

I'm in a toxic relationship with an alcoholic in denial. She often says I'm the addict and she's not when I'm sober and she's drunk. I'm not completely sober but not alcohol dependent currently. She covers all of those points that you covered big time. Unfortunately I can't kick her out as I'm not in the business of putting vulnerable females on the street. She often threatens suicide when I try to hint at making an effort to move on... The bumber is I've never been so motivated to give up this poison.

Four days in after a three week off and on bender. I’m 23 so I’ve only been drinking for the last not even two years, and I’ve had my fun in those times but just seeing how bad it can get hit me. I never went particularly overboard (my worst was like 12 drinks/shots a night over a two day weekend) and perhaps some day I will come back to the elixir but for the foreseeable future it was just better to quit while I was ahead and give myself a good break. The first night was pretty bad and restless, but now much of the anxiety has gone away already; just feels strange to be so energetic lol. Your videos have been a great help, and for that I thank you.

I was sober for 8 months... then started a job that was so toxic and stressful, I started drinking again... I've been drinking for 3 months... quit the job... I'm now having my very last drink this very second... I'm sobbing. Any words of encouragement from anyone?? Please?

Love your input. Fun fact: when I was in a relationship that wasn't right for me at all I hadn't been drinking except some rare occasions and those were my early twenties. Started drinking regularly around 28 drawn into tasting craft beers and it had grown into addiction pretty quickly, probably reaching its highs when I was 31-33. The middle of May marks seven months without alcohol, my goal is to make it to one year and summer may be tough in this regard. I can only tell that it doesn't improve my social skills at all.

Why are you doomed to spend all the weekend with drinkers? You change the peer pressure when you change your peers.

Wow I was so codependent on alcohol it was my answer to everything yet I always felt worse after. It’s tricky like that and that’s how my addiction likes to keep me. An acronym I heard for FEAR is false evidence appears real. My addiction loves to tell me false things like you can drink this night just don’t drink in the morning. I’m early on in my recovery and your videos help me. Thank you.

Good stuff! 15 days and feeling so much better. Steady drinker every night for 19 years. The first week was savage! Love the analogy of the ex. I’ll use that when someone offers me a drink. Looking forward to checking milestones. TY

I do what I can 🫡

Im ready to break up with alcohol. Thank you for this video. Im 37 and have been drinking hard for 20 years. Ive never looked at it as a toxic relationship before but wow what a change of perspective can do! Its been very painful to admit im addicted to alcohol and its been a very toxic way of surviving trauma and fear but its necessary! Everything i want and need is on the other side of sobriety! Im so glad i found this channel. Ive tried numerous times to stop drinking but i dont think i was ever fully invested...or i would just run back to familiarity to numb myself for the 1000th time. Im ready to commit to myself and give myself some love and grace. I just pray this time i can succeed and be proud of myself instead of despair. ❤

The best way to succeed at sobriety is to work intensely on changing on your mindset and your habits. Half hearted trying does not work.

I'm ready to break up with alcohol!! Finally. It has taken me a while to be able to say that. (Still unsure of what this is going to look like, but finally ready) It's so strange to keep going back and forth with something that I know is so bad for me. I've been watching your channel here and there for a while now. Thank you for sharing all of this wonderful information. You've helped me so much with deciding to start this journey. New subscriber.
