I am in this circle right now ! I have bad high blood pressure painful bloat constant vomiting and feel nauseous all the time . I say I am done tomorrow then always hit that store the next afternoon even though I know it is making me sick. I am trying to get inspiration, and your videos is making me think maybe I can do this because I have to. Hopefully I don’t hit that store today!! Keep posting !!!!!

Wow! Your story is so powerful!! I've heard a lot of aspects of your story more than once, but I still can't get over how extreme your addiction was! So sad you had to get within a stone's throw of dying (more than once) to finally get clean. And the road to getting clean, from what you've said, has been anything but easy. Sounds like you cut things about as close as possible in relation to losing your wife, family and life. I am glad you were saved both by doctors and God or whoever controls these things. And I'm glad you worked so hard to save yourself by getting out of your sick bed and forcing yourself to fight for your life. I'm also glad your family didn't break up under the stress. It's all nothing short of miraculous. All of this is a credit to God, to compassionate and skillful doctors, and of course to you, your wife and your family. Hopefully other alcoholics will hear your story and quit booze or be stronger in their recovery. From reading the comments on your videos, I can tell you've already had a huge positive influence on many. I'm so glad you're telling your story and turning your experience into a lesson for others. I can't imagine what it feels like to look back on your own life and see the tornado-like devastation booze caused. Must be depressing in many ways. However, I hope you feel peace knowing you're now doing such important work. I also hope God will protect you and grant you a long life so you can continue to share your message and make up for lost time both in your own life and with your loved ones!! God bless and keep you, LD!!!! 🙏🌷🪷❤

Good video! I think we all did some of the same things as you did in our addiction. I laughed when you said you searched the couches for loose change.

Unlike you, my wife left me and filed for divorce. My addiction was too much for her. I never blamed her for my stupidity. But for the mercy of God I wouldn't be here today. Dr's told me I only had about 90 days to live. Now my doctors are telling me that I might have maybe a year to live. It's been almost 6 months and I'm still here. What I do know is that with an affliction like ours we have to maintain a healthy nutritional diet (protein). We must developed a positive outlook on life and last but not least, we must keep ourselves busy both mentally and physically.

Come to think about it I can remember my addiction spiraling out of control during the COVID19 epidemic. All I did was drink from daylight until whatever time I passed out. It was a very confusing and difficult time for me. I did finally quit the alcohol abuse but it was far too late. My liver had already went serottic. My heart stopped 2 times while I was in the errands. They didn't expect me to make it through the night. It's been 5 months since my diagnosis and I'm still here. Everyday is precious to me. Here's hoping you are doing well. Keep up the good fighr.

I was staying in a house with some friends, we all over drank but I took it to another level, just beer but pretty much all day everyday, just watching TV shows, playing games, but eventually I started feeling like crap.

I've done it all. I am sorry about your dog. I am catching up on watching the sober channels because I had that five day drinking binge. It sucked. Good video, as usual LD, Ms. LD. The Marine base where near where I live doesn't follow state laws because it is federal - so their 7-Day Stores (convenience stores) had liquor you could buy 24 hours seven days a week. I never was into liquor, but I am sure it doesn't help Marines that might have alcohol problems.

Hey LD, it sounds like you requested next week questions to be posted here. If that's incorrect, I apologize. Anyway, my question is, how long before you got super sick did you begin to notice the mild symptoms of LD, such as easy bruising and spider angioma? I know you had the leg swelling early on, but isn't that a more advanced symptom despite the fact it doesn't really affect your day-to-day living? Additionally, did you ever experience itchiness? Being itchy can be attributed to a lot of things but it seems like a relatively common symptom as well. I totally relate to having 4 or 5 liquor stores in my rotation. Also, have you ever looked into Tudca? It's a bile salt supplement used for years both Holistically and by Weightlifters on Juice(steroids also very hard on the liver). It seems to have no side effects and is less risky than Milk Thistle. I guess that's more than a question. Have a cool week.
