Hope you sober and happier.

My brother died from this like you said….he hid the severity and well…I was just looking to understand what happened….so sad….RIP brother …thank you…I miss him❤️….he always said life was like a bowl of noodles you never know which way it will go….he was broke but he was so loved 🌻still can’t believe he’s gone….so sudden but not …😢

This was riveting - I really enjoyed this. Everything you mentioned in this presentation happened to us...especially the burning bright before the end. We were both doing the best professionally in our lives until the final year before we got sober...when things started falling apart and life became impossible. My wife and I are just over 1 year and 8 months sober and absolutely thriving.

Interesting I noticed my husband’s consumption has slowed down, he’s been drinking for 50 years. He has alcohol dementia now, it’s bad!

Clear now but sure wasn't when I was in the hole feeling all alone. Thanks for the talk Dr. Almost 2 years sober now and hearing this reinforces the journey I was on and why I don't want to go back.

Very insightful presentation which has helped me to understand the behaviour of someone I know.

This was a very good presentation!

Spot on really truthful information on the late stage Alcoholism. Explanations based everyday examples l learnt a lot of new stuff from and it clarified many issues in understanding me exbf who was behaved atrociously towards. Thank You Has helped me to begin to start to see him in a different light. Seperate the person from the disease at last. Unfortunately he has multiple health problems, is in deep denial and doesn't seem to care about anything. Heartbreaking.

Very interesting I've watched my brother struggle with this for yrs he's 59 now started drinking when he was 16 i call him a functioning alcoholic if their is such a phrase he always says he's got it it's under control but i know different , he hasn't had it under control in yrs now im starting to hear he is having stomach problems either upset or nausea or constipation, it's sad watching a loved one go through this all i can do is pray for him. Im subscribed to the channel now im wanting to learn everything i can about this dreaded dse.

My cousin was found dead a week ago. Regret fills me and makes me I wish I had seen this before. I could never understand why, it's too late for her but I hope I can use the help I information to help someone else.

Thank you my brother just passed away 2 months ago and your explanation was what I needed to help me understand what the heck was going on. I only just wish I had heard this earlier not that it would have changed the outcome but it may have changed my behavior towards him. 😢

Sorry for your loss. Addiction takes too many. Take care of yourself. 🙏🏼🕊️

Wow..Thank-you..Im 22 months from 34 years, I very nearly didn't see last year. I now help others, and will definitely be utilising if only some of your lines, they struck such a chord with me. It's so refreshing to here somebody who truly understands, thanks again sir.

Thank you! Great content

Thank you for posting this for people who need this information ❤️

Thank you, Dr. John. I am one of the grateful, "4th Outcomers." Working on year 25 of not drinking. Your description of dynamics of addiction expertly described the train I was on. We all have the chance to get off and I took mine. Thank you, Universe.

Thank you, the information was so helpful!

Excellent!!!!

I've lost everything in my life to alcohol, opioids and crack. I've had periods of sobriety but I just keep relapsing. I'm tired of trying now and I'm not expecting to see many more Xmases. I've od on heroin and fentanyl probably upwards of ten times and my luck is going to run out sooner rather than later. Best of luck to everyone trying. You are better folk than me.

Please never stop trying.

Incredibly interesting. 🧐

I'm 1 year and 5 months sober. I really appreciated the content. But, had I watched this before I started going to AA meetings or even the first six months of my sobriety, I would have had no patience for the rambling side bars. I also would not have tolerated the handwriting that I struggled to read. The actual content is very important, and I could see myself in it. I bet this content could reach a lot more addicts/alcoholics if the board was readable and the rambling was cut by half.

addicted drinkers lack Follow through ; undependable ; not the one you would call in an emergency ; flakes

Smart man!

It's about Early Intervention. Think about how hard it was to get sober and now staying sober.

Unable to initiate action.

i cant help but think a transferrence of addiction has happened to this man he has a food addiction and maybe fatty liver
