Stay with it. I went to rehab and stopped for 5 months. Then I was put into a triggering situation, and I drank. The hangover was terrible, but I continued to drink daily and the hangovers went away as long as I kept my drinking to a certain amount. So being hangover free felt like I had figured things out, until the hands started shaking in the morning. Trying to shave or run a Q-Tip through my ears was downright dangerous. Brushing teeth was dangerous too. And go ahead and try to drink water when your hands shake. It got downright embarrassing. I supplemented with Milk Thistle because that has been proven to reverse liver damage from alcohol. I also started taking shots of lemon juice with olive oil and Cayenne pepper, which is also known to reduce fatty liver disease. I was trying to supplement my way to keep drinking. But the liver isn't the only organ affected by drinking. The kidneys, the bladder, the urinary tract, the prostrate - are all in play too. So is the colon. I might have the healthiest liver of any heavy drinker, but my body is offering me advice: QUIT. So I am weening my way off the sauce. I know from rehab that quitting cold can be dangerous, so please lower your tolerance and quit slowly and realistically. I wish all of you the very best in conquering this cunning bitch of a disease. May God bless you all.

15 months without a drop. Best decision ever. Feel much better physically and mentally. More approachable and engaging. More focused on my work. Father passed away January 30th 2022. Just a month before on Christmas I told him how I quit and he seemed really happy for me. Little did I know that'd be the last time I would have a conversation with him. As he lied in the hospital after suffering a massive heart attack and sustaining cardiac arrest I took a vow to keep myself clean.

I drank for 15 years from 27-42 I stopped drinking Christmas day 2021. After 6.5 months off I had a few beers and wine with neighbours over the fence in the garden. It hurt my body. The weekend after I had a drink on Saturday and Sunday. I felt terrible mentally and physically. I realised that I was missing nothing. The things I've made happen and the momentum that I've created in 6.5 months is just the start to what I'm going to achieve. Everything is better in my life now. I have no desire to drink any more alcohol. I'm not even beating myself up about drinking for those 3 days either I tried it and it went against who I've become. Momentum is everything when you want to stop drinking alcohol

alcohol is attractively packaged poison

Drinking caused me a good amount of problems when I was in my 20's and 30's. I finally realized that booze is bad, with really no benefit. I wasn't an "alcoholic" but the "alteration" of my better judgement, at various times, when I was drinking compelled me to make stupid choices, and one day I had a "moment of clarity" about booze, and I quit forever. It's been 30 years now, and it was one of the best choices I have ever made in my life, for many reasons.

I had to leave my boyfriend who I loved because of his drinking problem, it broke my heart.. He was an unrecognizable and abusive man when drinking. I tried to guide him in love and encouragement but I was also very clear that I could not have an alcoholic in my life. He hid it from me when we first met but I eventually found out, people can only hide these things so long. He admitted he'd had a drinking problem for 7 years and volunteered to go to outpatient. He made an excuse why he didn't go. Then it was going to be AA meetings several times a week, all his idea. He went to maybe 4 meetings in a span of several months. He started drinking and hiding it again, he said he was ok because he'd cut back so much. He really went down hill and I had to leave him. To this day it's heart wrenching to think about but I had to save myself. So whoever thinks they can just cut back, or drink on holidays is fooling themselves. It's all or nothing with alcoholism. You WILL slowly return to your old ways if you don't get help and completely stop. My ex is a 51 year old man who makes 6 figures a year, and has nothing to show for this. He's in poor health physically and mentally, he's in such deep debt he almost went homeless until my family brought him in at one point before we split. His adult children suffer from his alcoholism, he hurts everyone in his life because he doesn't help himself first. Anyone out there read this, it's never too late to quit, there is a better life, you CAN repair yourself and your broken relationships, and broken feelings. Someone out there is waiting on you because they love you. Love yourself. I wish my ex would have, but you can go another way.

Hi Nichole. Hollywood and plenty of real-life people have depicted ALL heavy drinkers as abusive. I'd consider myself as what classifies as a heavy drinker. On any given night I'd put away one or two beers followed by a pint of Jack, which is basically 8 shots. So I was drinking about 10 drinks per night on the daily. It never ever made me mean and abusive. Not all drinkers are the same.

It was my best friend..and worst enemy. I could never have stopped (the very idea was terrifying) without God’s grace. My only advice, no matter the objections, is hit your knees immediately upon getting up in the morning, and humbly ask God for another day of sobriety. Then, right before bed, hit your knees and humbly thank Him for one more day. Sounds too simple, but it’s the winning formula. I stopped drinking in March of 1989. I was 20 years old - never had a legal drink in my life (still haven’t). All due to finally hitting my knees and letting God take over. I have peace now. Often have joy too. Most importantly, though, I have hope - because the One who I didn’t know loved me more than any human being could, just wanted to be given permission to help me. I wish you the best. ❤

It has kicked my alcoholism into high gear and I desperately need this this video. To those that have stayed sober, congratulations to you. I'm just looking for my first step back to "normality".

I was assistant manager at my job .. I was drinking heavy , but it didn’t effect my work other then going in feeling like shit , and lacking on sleep. I recently got called into work to cover a shift but I had already been off and I had a lot to drink(me thinking my tolerance was high made me think I was good to go into work) when I got their I worked for a couple hours no problem , but then it all hit me at once and I straight blacked out on the clock. I did a lot of stupid shit in front of a coworker , and a did some other things that I don’t remember but watched it the next day on camera . I remember going into work and being functional/coherent then next thing you know I woke up the next day with the big boss saying we needed a meeting , and I needed to stay home from my shift that day. I missed the meeting because I was sleeping off alcohol poisoning. We had a meeting 2 days after the situation , and they told me to resign and they told me they would do one of those silent acts where legally no one is aloud to discuss why I quit . They said they still appreciated my work ethic and all I had done for the establishment, but it’s one thing you can’t undo. I’ve never done something like that a day in my life of drinking. Don’t even remember it . Charges could have been pressed , and I easily could never be able to find a job again , but thankfully my sober me is an amazing person/worker , and they weren’t going to let one MAJOR fuck up undo all the great things I’ve done with 0 issues . I promised myself to never drink again , and if I do…I deserve everything bad that will come with it. Alcohol is unpredictable and anybody is capable of doing ANYTHING if they are drunk enough.

My doctor advised me to seriously cut down on my alcohol consumption or I wouldn't see 50, that was at the end of 2003, I quit drinking alcohol for all of 2004, I'm now going on 66 years old and I'm so glad that my doctor gave me a wake up call about my drinking

I'm at 8 days alcohol free today! It's nice NOT having to deal with the Monday and Tuesday 'bloat drain' where the body basically excretes all that extra water weight that it was holding starting from Friday. Already noticed that my face isn't as puffy either, so it's releasing some of that water as well. Definitely not a heavy drinker, but I don't like waking up in a cloud on Saturday and Sunday, and with a Carmel dry mouth. Just need to manage that end-of-workweek craving with some other type of reward. I started weening away from the craft IPAs, and found that it's best to come away from all beer.

I went through trying to quit 4 times, and every time I'd start again and end up right where I left off after a few months. Almost dead. I made the choice to stop for good in September this year, I have not missed drinking at all. Once your in the right mind frame about it, everything changes. Best of luck my friend, but know, the only person who is going to drag you out of that black hole that is alcohol, is YOURSELF, no one else. You just have to want to make the choice to stop.

VERY GOOD ! GREAT GOAL

It's crazy that he said.."Doing things for other people is by far more rewarding than drinking alcohol" That's pretty much exactly how i felt when completely giving it up close on 10 years ago. Instead of getting smashed every weekend, i found looking after my nieces, and my older family members was way more rewarding. Plus no hang overs, so i could enjoy my whole weekend. Things worked out great, my older family members looked after me when i was a child, and i helped and hung out with them at the end. No place i would have rather been. This whole...Alcohol culture to me is nonsense. If you want to drink fine, but it's also fine to say no. Life's too short to be hung over all the time.

I’ve been sober for 15 months now. Last May I was diagnosed With liver failure which progressed to kidney failure by last July. I was on dialysis 3 x a week, getting a paracentesis 2x a week from last July until this February when I was blessed enough to get organ transplant at at MGH-the greatest hospital in Boston. It’s been 4 months now since then and no more dialysis, no paras and of course still not drinking. The scars I now have are ridiculous but enough to remind Me of what I went through. I’m not screwing up this second chance. I feel great today and wish I had quit years ago before all that happened to me. I’m only posting this story of mine to let others know it can get THAT bad.

I stopped drinking about 10 year ago. Well... maybe a beer or 2 once a year. I drank alot but never to the extent it was a problem. But all but stopping has done wonders on my personal appearance and mindset. He is 100% right

I figured this might be a good place to share my story... Hope this helps someone I grew up in a drug infested home with parents that abused substances including alcohol. I left home at a young age and ended up joining the USMC. I experienced a lot of traumas in the service and when I got out, I started to self-medicate with Alcohol. As soon as I started to abuse Alcohol my entire life seemed to halt. Things that were very important just didn’t matter anymore. Goals I had seemed distant and out of reach and overtime my life started to spiral out of control. When I abused alcohol, I also seemed to abuse everyone close to me. My marriage struggled, other personal relationships struggled and overall, my life became a struggle. This, combined with the PTSD I suffer from was almost too much. It wasn’t until I was arrested for domestic violence that things started to get better. I had to hit rock bottom. The courts ordered that I got treatment for my PTSD and that I had to quit drinking. Because I didn’t want to go to jail, I was forced to do this. My life began to change for the better almost INSTANTLY. My interpersonal relationships were able to be repaired. My marriage improved and my overall happiness improved. The goals that seemed so distant now seems just right out of grasp. I was able to refocus my life. I went from living paycheck to paycheck with severe depression and anxiety to making over 200k a year. My mental state is overwhelmingly joyful. It seems to me that Alcohol took the place of everything that was important in life. Once I removed that, it was almost like this fog was lifted and I was able to step back and evaluate what was happening. I have not had a single drink in 9 years.

I just quit drinking a few weeks ago and feel amazing. It’s different for everyone but for me even small amounts regularly were massively holding me back and draining my daily mood, sleep and energy. I had this huge realization one day when I thought about why do those in power let the common people drink alcohol but not necessarily do other similarly intoxicating drugs. It immediately hit. It’s obvious. Those in power use alcohol as a weapon against the poor and everyone below them to keep them down and lazy, not fulfilling their full potential or developing. A culture of alcoholism celebrates stupidity and all the wrong degenerate values they want to replace the traditional nuclear family with. So alcohol and TV are actually their biggest tools in maintaining control as it keeps enough of the masses down from wanting a better, less corrupt way of life that would benefit all more.

I lost the person I love because of my drinking and drug abuse. That's my biggest regret. even after finding someone who would even think of loving me it still wasn't enough for me to stop. I felt like giving up. I'm now 40 days sober and feeling a lot better I'm finally getting over the relationship and I don't ever see myself on that path again.

I'm not talking about alcoholism, or substance abuse, I'm talking about behaviours, that you will happy to express, but deemed to be ultimately against your goal. "Minding" your emotions does not mean you don't get to feel undesireable emotions, just that you have to realise that the emotions are bad, feeling bad emotions makes you feel miserable, and what does make you feel these bad emotions. Because if you figure out the source, you are already at a better position to do something against it.

I returned to work today after being off for about 3 weeks. I really enjoyed those three weeks off to focus on my physical and mental well being. Having so much time to just be able think and analyze everything in my life without the stress that work puts on me, proved to be a very beneficial thing. It helped me realize that I’ve been going down a destructive path for some time. I honestly became an asshole to myself and to those around me. The booze clouded my mind and perception. But after some serious re-evaluation I decided to do better for myself. I refuse to be a victim to my current circumstances, how can I as a man with a brain fall victim to a chemical. Let it dictate what I do and where I go and what I don’t do. It’s pathetic and I’m tired of telling myself that it’s not. I’m tired of having to wake up hungover the next day, in a shitty mood just waiting for the clock to hit a certain time so I can continue to drink. Because I wanted to trick myself into believing that I didn’t have a problem, I’m such a bullshitter. But I’m done with the way I’ve been living my life for the past two years. I will make the ultimate investment in myself, I will quit alcohol. Even as I am writing this, the alcohol is putting doubt in my mind that I won’t succeed in what I’ve just said. Alcohol doesn’t know a thing about what I’m made of. It doesn’t know how much strength it took to even get to this point. At one point you might have had me under your thumb. But I declare now that I have broken free. I put my trust in Christ, I know he will guide me to the light and a better life. I have seen the light, the darkness has receded. It might peek its nose from time to time but I know Jesus and love are a much more formidable force to be reckoned with.

Never had an real drinking problem, but something in me always to me: "If you want to stand out grom the crowd in life, you should quit". So I did, I quit drinking a few weeks ago and had the best time drinking water when I was with friend while they eere all drinking beer. Never going back, let's focus on improving ourselves!

Even drinking on the weekends is enough to hold you back from bettering your self, reaching your goals, and presently being there for your family. I can attest that when compared to times of sobriety even a light hang over is enough to curtail your productivity. You have a rough week, (or so you create a rough week for yourself) and crave drink on the weekend, on Sunday's I spent the majority of my day lounging on the couch watching tv, VS weekends where I wouldn't drink I'd get up in the morning on Sunday make breakfast for my family, take them out, do productive things around the house. Alcohol steals your energy and potential, it's a trojan horse just like caffeine.

Caffeine has a net loss effect on the body in terms of alertness. Caffeine drinkers are no more alert than non-caffeine drinkers when tested for alertness. However, they do become much LESS alert when the caffeine starts wearing off, eventually leaving them tired, groggy, brain fog, withdrawals, etc, until they get their next fix. The same goes for energy levels. Whereas energy levels and alertness remained stable in non-caffeine drinkers, who experience 1 dip in energy levels and alertness after lunch, especially if it was a heavy lunch, which resolves within an hour. Caffeine drinkers experience these dips all day and when caffeine is consumed, it just brings them up to baseline, normal levels.

Some people have extremely broken and twisted definitions of kindness, and if they stay that way sober or drunk you must believe they feel nothing because the idea that they somehow feel love yet spend every waking moment making sure anyone else who believes it suffers for it until love isn't worth living for simply cannot be explained anymore than someone walking around without a heart beat. Life is not good, there is nothing more natural to me than distrusting other people's basic capacity for love and kindness, or that people have the capacity to prove anything that they claim to feel or believe isn't destructive oxymoronic garbage, and I especially don't want to see the proof first hand anymore, at least until I can ever physically and mentally relax if that ever happens before I finally die.

Almost two years without a sip of alcohol. It was destroying my life. My passions where gone. I gained over 100 pounds. I was stuck, and hiding my drinking from others. I would look in the mirror and hate the guy looking back at me. One night I was having a hard time, stuck in a pit of despair and depression and I hear The Lord say in my spirit that He is in control. I broke down sobbing and I told my wife I need to quite drinking. She told me she agrees but that I needed to tell her how bad i had gotten. I told her about my hiding it. About my excuses, how I would go to the store so I could buy some vodka and then chug it before I went back inside. How I had empty bottles hidden all over the place. She was dumbfounded and she told me to allow God to help me. She should of kicked me out but she showed me grace. I asked for forgiveness and I was transformed in an instant. I haven’t touched alcohol since and owe it all to Jesus who took my sin so that I can be made new.

*​Bible Talk With BW* look forward to that day too. I wish everyone realized that God is always close by, waiting for us. All we have to is humble ourselves, reach out and ask for His help. He will take us into his loving arms, forgive our sins, take away our old desires and give us new ones! I didn't think that it was possible, but it absolutely is! Stay well my brother in Christ! ✝

THIS MAN SHOULD BE IN A POSITION TO PROMOTE THE CONSTITUTION. DR. PETERSON IS DEFINITELY ONE OF A KIND !

It's videos like this one and the AA that have helped me considerably. Been sober now for 9 days and feeling surprisingly energetic whilst shaking off the flue. To whomever it may help ; I was technically drinking non stop since I was 18 and now I'm 31, binged right through my 20's then the pandemic hit and it spiralled out of control. I had to draw a line from it when I went into somebody's spirit cabinet and began swigging anything I could find secretively. Only the gods and yourself can help you. But sobriety feels great at this stage. Everyone else says it, but it really does feel good not waking up with a hangover.

34 days in thank you for your support

I’m praying for you

I had a relative that drank moderately, then in retirement started drinking tequilla shots. I look back on it now & wish I had tried harder to get him to stop, but anyway he started having strokes at 80 & at 82 was in a wheelchair in a nursing home until his passing at 87. His father lived to 94 & his grandfather lived to 96 & both could still walk when they passed. The antidote folks is get creative & avoid alcohol.

How lucky to live to 87.

i really respect him and i love him for being kind and showing the right way

Went sober for almost a year. Got back into drinking here and there but going sober starting toddy. Pray for me friends.

I had the most INTENSE case of anxiety several days ago due to the a 2 day binge that landed me in the hospital. I think that was the last straw for me. I thought I was going to die. I thank God I didn't, and I thank my wife for her patience with being there, and not leaving me a long time ago. Praying everyday since that I don't go back 🙏.

About 35.yrs ago I stopped pleasing other people by drinking alcohol. I had never liked the high or the taste, but peer pressure affected me and I drank like others did. Was as easy as the statement, I quit! Never missed it, and probably should celebrate this decision. Hope all that struggle with this can escape this struggle, and send you all positive vibes. You can do it! 💖

Interesting. I love the buzz/drunk feeling AND the way it tastes entirely apart from that; IMO nothing tastes better or more interesting than good alcohol. But I am now earnestly trying to quit (I say "trying" cuz I won't know if I really am able to stop completely until about 6 months of no drinking is achieved. Fortunately, I have a very good reason to not do it any more, plus the whole drag on health it can present).

Jordan helped me quit drinking. Not going to say I'm 100% sober, but I used to drink every day, listening to him I decided to take 2 months off. Now I only drink when it's a holiday or special occasion. I don't feel like I need it anymore. But I had to break my habit and he has my gratitude. 🙏

7days strong ! Seeing some of the benefits. And just being clear minded feels amazing!

Two years in February 2021. I didn't wait till it messed up my life. I quit before it did.

best thing I did, drinker for 20± years, sober for 8 months, its amazing how much happier I am and how much better life is :-)

11 years Sober. Best thing I have ever done. Its the devil's nectar! PTL THANK YOU JESUS FOR TAKING THE DESIRE AWAY.

As a person with Asperger, this is halfway true. When you are alone with your thoughts you learn to love yourself, if you don't love your self you can't love others, better to feel alone when you are alone than be alone when you are with others. If you see the people who change the world, they have been loners, freaks, and atypical humans.

123 DAYS SOBER!!! LIFE IS GREAT!!!

I’m thinking about tomorrow will be my last day smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol I know I can do it thank you for your message.

Your so right Jordan

This is such an important topic. Lewis does such an amazing job with his interviews. People really need more awareness about the dangers of alcohol. This should be taught in schools extensively starting at an early age.

Needed this today after being sick all day from a bender. Today I have decided to finally put my foot down and actually put an effort into quitting and getting my life back. I can and will not continue this path anymore or I'll end up in an early grave.

It’s good to read everyone’s comments. I’m on a 5 day bender and I came here for help because I don’t know where else to look

Keep fighting ALL OF YOU!!!!

I was so good at hiding my drinking. I'm good at putting some time in between binges. October 15th I had alcohol poisoning. My husband was up with me all night praying I was going to get through the night. It wasn't the first time. But it was the last. I can't do it anymore and I can't hide it anymore. I'm determined but very aware to my fragility. My husband cried when I finally said I have a problem and I need your help.
