I'm six months sober now. When you mentioned the insanity part that reminded me of what got me to quit. I't was a Saturday and I slowly have three drinks throughout the afternoon and evening and when I was sobering up I said to myself, "I wasted an afternoon drinking?" I wasn't horribly intoxicated but I still poisoned my body hoping for different results. I remember waking up in the morning I realized how boring getting intoxicated is.

I’m a couples weeks short of 2 years SoberClear. There are so many benefits but I think one that is often forgotten about is living without the shame which accompanies excessive drinking. Thanks Leon!

Came to the decision about 20 years ago. Never touched a drop since,or had any desire to do so

Did well for about 5 months. Went out and thought i cohld control myself and i was wrong. Its been a downward spiral ever since. I know its not always going to be this way, one day ill get this under control.

going back is sometimes a hard crash but … it’s up to you, my friend. It’s not about ticking a calendar for days you didn’t drink, it’s about living in your own skin and being happy. Hang tough!

You're not alone. Third attempt starting for me now. It's so tricky, after a while you think it's ok, just gonna have a drink. And then next day two drinks. And before you know it, it's every day again.

You are SO right. Well done for making it make so much sense. It certainly helped me. 9mths now.

Same here. It starts out as a couple of shots and pints for the night. Then ends in a full blown 3 day bender. Binging from morning to night. Blacking out and losing sense of time. The withdrawals from this benders range from insomnia to hallucinations for a couple of nights.

Thank you. It's been almost a year since I was in rehab. Got kicked out for relapsing. Anyway, without people constantly telling me to stop drinking, throwing out my beer, wine boxes, I eventually didn't need people or rehab to tell me to stop bc I won't. Eventually the need, urge, craving went away when the stressor went away. Today I'm home, nothing to do, go, I'll just relax with... nothing

I love you Leon Thanks for helping me to not want to drink and seeing alcohol for what it is. Almost 3 months 2 without feeling like i gave something up but broke free. I even talk like het we can celebrate my next birthday party and 1 year sober. Wish you the best man💜

I had a health scare 3 months ago and i had to quit alcohol. I think it was caused by alcohol and that was the main reason i stopped. Just after i left hospital i contacted my drinking friend and asked how he was and he txt'd back "i will let you know when i get of hospital". He was in the same hospital as me and i later found out he had tried to kill himself. After a week his brother txt'd and told me he had died. I think alcohol had messed him up and he tried suicide but didn't really want to die. Looking back i can only think of all the problems drunkenness had caused me. I don't go out and i spend my time doing other things. Waking up feeling well and ready for another day is what i want. I choose another path and spend my money on other things, i did enjoy going out every saturday with the guys but i've grown out it and have other goals. It is very hard to keep away from it all but going back to that life style would quickly kill me and i have to stay focused. I watched and subscribed to hear motivational talk and would like to thank Leon for his channel it certainly helped a lot.

I appreciate your videos; I have struggled with alcoholism for 30 years now and I thank you for the free content. But, shame and guilt should also come from living in Dubai. Slave labor built that city, and it continues today. It almost seems hypocritical to preach about alcoholism, a form of personal slavery, while living in Dubai.

Leon isn’t here to solve the problems of the world, rather one problem that all or most of us here apparently have. Where the fuck do you live? If you want to live in a society that only includes you maybe you can escape hypocrisy but the fact that Leon lives in Dubai takes nothing away from the fact that he is a good man trying to help people

Well said When you decide logically why you shouldn’t anymore is the key

That's me minus the blackouts
