14 days sober. 14 more makes a month. I got this Edit: Day 218 Been awhile with the edits but I'm still going strong! Life's gotten much busier lately :) This comment section is full of some beautiful people. God bless you all ♥️ Today is February 7th, 2024. The 17th of next month marks 6 months sober. The new year is like an alternate universe compared to where I was at the start of last year. Y'all stay safe, remember to love yourself and that you are enough. Good news: I got my drivers license. I also found a high paying job to start a lifelong career to support myself and my family. This goes to show, you change your mind, you change your life.

On my last day,my hangover and withdrawals lasted almost a week. I SHOULD have gone into detox (again) but I did it on my own. I DO NOT RECOMMEND DOING THIS!!!

Good luck to you. Reach to your higher every minute...praying for strength and discipline.

I think the best way to not go back to drinking is to think about how bad it got and how scary it was at the darkest point. I thought I was going to die just recently from the most brutal withdrawal I’ve ever had in my life and I’m going to use that as a reminder this time to never go back

@araxxi27pogo86

@@oldmanhendo7183 that's what I am trying to do this time around also. It's disturbing to think that an addiction can be SO powerful that it actually takes you to these extremes and depths before you actually make the decision to stop and EVEN THEN there's no guarantee that you won't go back to it.. it's actually horrifying!! Like I have been in some extremely dangerous conditions and in and out of hospitals and I've lost SO MUCH through my drinking and it has done A LOT of damage and then I'd quit and manage to stay sober for a few months and I'd feel way better and begin to regain some health and wellness and I'd think that I'd like to stay sober for good and then seemingly out of nowhere I'd just start drinking again.. it's sinister the way that it works on your memory to suddenly warp your perception of how bad things actually were and what made you stop in the first place.. suddenly it seems like "oh, it wasn't THAT bad.." etc. and it creeps up on you like some sort of twisted "dark nostalgia" (as I like to call it) that messes with your head and starts making you miss it and feel like somehow like you are almost.. lonely(?) without it.. and memories of good times are altered to make it appear as though they were only a good memory BECAUSE of the alcohol, when in actual fact it would've been a good memory either way.. it didn't require alcohol to make it good.. but that's another one of the insidious traits of addiction.. That's why I can't handle people that have never experienced addiction firsthand blaming and criticizing us and calling us weak or accusing us of behaving this way on purpose and all the rest of it because WHY would we want to subject ourselves to all of that sufferance and place our lives in constant danger for f**king fun!? And because THAT is what we want!? It's a ridiculous claim to even make. I'm sorry to hear that it got that serious and bad for you and I wish you all the best in your life and your ongoing journey of sobriety!!

About 13 months ago i went through horrible withdrawals. I was waking up with the shakes for about 2 weeks and still drinking every night. It was my darkest time of drinking going a half gallon of crown a night. I woke up one morning and started getting hot/cold flashes and shaking/sweating like crazy. Then I got horrible anxiety that'd hit me in waves. Some hallucinations. Worry of having a seizure. It scared me so much I made it 103 days with no alcohol. Then I started drinking 1 time every couple of weeks for a couple months than once a week. Then twice a week. And the last couple of weeks I've been drinking a 24 pack 5 nights a week taking a day off after 3 nights of drinking and I'm worried I'm falling back into the hole again. I want to get better and I know I shouldn't keep drinking. Withdrawals are the most horrifying thing I've been through and don't wish it on anybody. I'm just ranting now but sobriety is a good thing and I hope everyone can find their way out.

I know that for a lot of people therapy can help, but you can also just walk into an aa meeting and listen to what people have to say there. There are a bunch of different ways to get help, you just really have to reach out there and try.

By the time i reached 28 years, i was drinking 2 bottles of Scotch whiskey a day. I did give up and after a week, i was in a mental hospital, because i was hallucinating and was a danger. I only stayed in for 3 weeks, and was deemed safe to go out. I had to have liver function tests every 2 months, as my liver was damaged. I would then see my GP a week after the tests to get the results. After the third sets of tests i was told my liver had repaired. My GP then told me i could drink beer as this was not addictive. 3 years later i was drinking 24 cans of Special Brew, a day, a type of lager sold in the UK. Hideous drink, my weight had dropped to 91lb, because i was just not eating, and had become extremely ill. With the help of my wife i managed to get a home detox, and by the Grace of God, i have now been clean and sober for the best part of 35 years. I know how hard it is to stop drinking, hardest thing i have ever done for myself in my life, so for those who are struggling to give up, best wishes, hope you all achieve sobriety and may your Gods watch over and Bless you.

I was alcohol dependent until I developed acute pancreatitis and ended up in an induced coma and on life support for a week.. Spent 2 and half weeks in hospital total, lost 10 days of my life because of the coma and concoction of drugs I was on and overall it was a seriously traumatic experience, delirium is no joke.. 4 weeks sober, detoxed me in hospital, no cravings, no thoughts, nothing.. I think trauma of going through what I went through in hospital flipped a switch in my brain.. No matter what happens in life I’ll never touch an alcoholic drink again.

This just randomly popped up on my feed and made me cry. I lost my dad in 2014 due to liver failure (severe alcoholic for many many years). Watching my father slowly deteriorate and die was the most gut wrenching moment of my life and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone 💔

I recognize that shake. That was me after the army and all the conflict. Get well soon. Been sober for five years now.

I’ll hit 5 years sober this October 18th. At my absolute worse I was drinking a liter of vodka and 2 40s of Mal Liquor a day. I remember literally having to keep a bottle hidden under my bed because I couldn’t even get out of bed without a huge gulp of vodka. Those shakes are the absolute worse. For those wondering how serious alcoholism is during Covid a worldwide pandemic Liquor Stores were considered essential because alcohol withdrawals can kill you. Alcoholism cost me everything but at least I’m sober.

Definitely. I was there myself. I'll tell ya, if you wanna know if hell is real, keep drinking. It gets way worse than this. I somehow survived, (yes, I'm sober now and in my mid fifties) but I was in and out of the hospital 5 times over a two-yr period. I was so bad that I had to set the alarm every 20 minutes for a sip or all hell would break loose. I was not just shaking, but my head was pounding, my thoughts were completely haywire, the upper right quadrant of my gut was tbrobbing - the liver - and the pancreas (acute hepatitis and pancreatitis). I'd crap myself because it was just all black liquid that I couldn't hold in, I had constant nosebleeds (platelets), I would keep a pale nearby because I often threw up while trying to force vodka down my throat... The last time I went to the ER and my BP was 190/120. I needed friends to take me because I couldn't walk. How I survived, I have no clue, but it took those 5 hospitalizations, losing my job of twenty years (of course), several stints at the local psych hospital and a very expensive rehab to get sober. My doctor said I am a walking miracle. It may be a behavioral problem to start with, but once you start getting nervous (at all) without a drink, you are officially physically addicted - that's your nervous system overcompensating at lowering your GABA level because the chronic consumption of alcohol has artificially raised it - a change that will never reverse because your nervous system has a "memory" called longterm potentiation - so, once addicted, always addicted. There are no exceptions to this rule. It can take decades like it did with me or just a couple of years like it did with a friend of mine - who was so bad she jumped off of a bridge to be free of it. Yes, she's dead. Some people - perhaps the majority can drink socially, but anyone who abuses it long enough is guaranteed to become addicted. Glad these warnings are sinking in. And also, thank you for making me feel compelled to tell you my story - I still need to remind myself. Stay well, my friend.

So happy you got sober. I don’t know you but I’ll keep you in my prayers buddy. One day at a time, God bless you!!

@Meowsweoq Hey thanks for sharing. Yeah that's exactly it, withdrawal tremors. It's horrible. People will go into seizures sometimes as well. Certain hospitals and detox centers have some good ways to help monitor your health and provide medications to assist you through detox. It's very difficult and alcohol can be dangerous to detox off. It sounds like you have a really strong mindset to quit. I just had someone in his 60's drinking 2L of vodka everyday. He soon coded (heart attack) at the hospital soon after getting him there. He didn't make it. The reality is brutal, but it's hard seeing people go through that. All his family left him. He was living on an inflatable mattress in an apartment and not getting up to use the bathroom. Empty bottles everywhere. It's tragic that people go through that. His neighbor called 911 because he was the only one who cared. Whatever you're going through I hope that you find the strength to quit. Fill your life with awesome adventures and great people. You can do it!

Brother, you got this. You're gonna have to fight like hell for it but this aint the first time humans had to fight like hell for something that's worth risking their lives. Fight the good fight man. I am proud of you for knowing you have a problem, and I am proud of you for trying, keep fighting do not stop. There's people in this world who are gonna be sad if you fail, and if there aren't meet them, fight the good fight, and everything will fall into place. Good luck soldier, Once you get off that boat you keep moving, your comrades might fall to the enemies artillery and machine guns from the bunker but you have to keep marching, you have to keep moving, and you must be determined.

I lost my mother due to her alcholism. The heavy breathing, yellow eyes and orange skin was VERY prevalent right before she passed. I just hope she is at peace noe because Lord knows she suffered for a long time when she was on Earth. ❤ thank you for sharing this

My brother and I went through the same thing with our father. He drank hard from age 17-34 and ages 39-59. Sorry to hear you endured that and she didn’t beat it. Alcoholism is devastating to every loved one of those addicted.

I feel you. I'm clean off heroin 6 years thanks to my wife and basically only my wife. Well, my parents also played a role but it would've never happened without the love I had for my wife, who convinced me to love myself at least enough to give up smack.

Thank you for posting the reality and the devastating side effects of alcoholism.

Respect man, takes courage to admit your problem. I do hope you get well 👍

Your stories so very true! I've been sober for 35 years, but I still remember shaking like that and having to drink to stop, the whole time thinking I was losing my mind

switch to marijuana

When I was younger I would get more snarky responses when people would ask me what I drank and I told them I didn’t. Nowadays, I get the question less and people are less snarky about it. Sometimes they actually seem to get slightly defensive about why they drink, even though I didn’t project judgement over it. There’s a shift in awareness happening and it’s beautiful.

True that, My wife and I are the same way. Were both in out 40s. We each chose the alcohol-free life in our early 20s mainly because alcohol had no appeal. People still somewhat ridicule the lifestyle choice, but I woudnt have it any other way. I know what Im missing, and happy to be missing it.

You helped me build up the confidence and self awareness to finally quit my alcohol habit. Even though I new I was an alcoholic when I turned 21 and went to rehab right after it still had a hold of me. It took me about a year of escalting abuse of alcohol for me to realize I needed to quit. I thought of this video the whole time, thank you.

I've been sober for 5 years. I was a binge drinker. I'd go on runs of 4 days and take 3 off. I was 37 and had nothing no job, no car living in public housing. I remember at just 37 how bad the hangovers used to be. On the 4th day, I'd stop, and that first day was terrible. And by the third day, I was ready to destroy myself all over again. Get sober folks find that higher power ask for help choose life.

This just breaks my heart, reminds me of my mom. She died in 2019 of liver cirrhosis, she also had copd and congestive heart failure. My sister and I went to visit her, we ended up calling an ambulance because she was unresponsive on the floor. We had no idea she was as bad as she was. She only lasted two weeks in the hospital. I thought I was going to see her the next day. The doctor didn't tell us the severity of it until after the fact. It all happened so quickly and was traumatic. I miss my mom everyday 😔 she was only 54 years old
