Keep going my booooy !!! I had 38 days sober in a row then messed up drank 3 or 4 tall cans yesterday and the next few days my anexity was through the roof !!!!! I swear 2 god my anexity the next days was soooooo bad I was scared 😱 to go to sleep 🛌 alone !!! Even try😢to fall asleep 😴 my anexity was soooo bad !!! I had the Christian channel playing all night while I was sleeping 🛌 ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
Im so proud of you Brother!! Been on opiates since the age of 13yo due to childhood trauma and undiagnosed mental illness. Ive been sober multiple times but I always come back to it as an excuse to make my brain stfu about my future as I am a tattoo artist and so afraid of not beeing good enough regarding my drawing skills and my style. I was sober for 3days cold turkey and just relapsed with 200mg of tillidin (equivalent to 30mg of MST morphin) I was too ashamed to tell my parents as they truly try their best to support me so I just walked up to them crying like hell saying im so afraid to fall back into my old habbits. Idk what im tryna say but I know I really just want to be sober again. Its going to be very hard as Ive got mad back problems even tho Ive been going to the gym regularly and using all types of natural plants to soothe the pain. I know for a fact that once Im 80yo I’ll definitely be popping oxy again until the day that I die, so I guess Ive got some type of motivation to look forward to, but until then I truly need to embrace the sober life and do my best
I lost a lifelong friend to alcoholism recently. 46. The pandemic really gave him the license to indulge 24/7. It wasn’t a pretty death. For the final two weeks before final hospitalization, he had to crawl to get to the bathroom and it could take an hour. His abdomen was so distended it felt like he swallowed a basketball when we’d hug to greet. It was hard as a rock, not a belly- a scarred liver that was swelling. His parents took his to the hospital finally and didn’t tell anyone. They were embarrassed, probably, he was their baby. The entire family was affected by Love Canal and had it really rough health-wise as a result.- he himself was born with a rare condition with part of his brain outside his head. A surgeon from Germany had to be flown here to fix it, which he did. He lost eyesight it one eye and had a plastic plate as a result. He dealt with big time depression we don’t know the likes of e was a big drinker and a saxophone player. It was sad to see him laid out on the bed, only able to stay two things after his ruined intestines were removed from his body: “ouch” and “Mom” and lapsed into a coma that he never woke up from. We didn’t have time to say goodbye. So two things: don’t anyone drink yourself into a slow, agonizing death due to ethanol complications. It’s not fun. The other one is make sure you tell your alcoholic loved ones that you love them and “goodbye” often because you will thank yourself if they God forbid end up in a coma due to drinking a case or two of beer daily/nightly. I had to get that one out. RIP MA
It’s gonna take a while for your system to reset and heal itself. Sorry about your buddy but please, stay sober. You’ll just mourn with a hangover and that’s worse. You’re going to start feeling alive again in a few months. There is no “edge” that alcohol can take away. It’ll give you an edge, though- right off the side of a cliff. I’m 10 years sober and I can tell you, it only gets better and you have a good mindset. You are aware of yourself and your situation- keep doing good. Alcohol only leads to bad places and you’ll end up like your friend- gone.
I think thats definitely an important thing for myself and everyone else to understand that the benefits at 30 days are just the beginning. They can seem minimal at times and therefore push you to just start drinking again. But the benefits will start to compound as time goes on. Looking forward to 60 days and beyond!
@@ENOUGHISTOOMUCH207I started to feel better at 45 days. Then at 3 months my thoughts were clear and my body hurt less. At six months my financial shit started to improve, and I was more effective at work and in my relationship….one year mark I was feeling awesome. You’ll have to work at this the rest of your life..but it’s work worth doing. Congrats on one month. Keep rolling.
i havent had a drop since April and it gets better and better. However I dont fall into the trap of saying I'll "never" drink again because it will set me up to go into a binge for months if I slip up. I just take it one day at a time and dont worry about tomorrow or yesterday like the 12 Steps suggests.
@@ENOUGHISTOOMUCH207 I got to the point where I wanted to feel healthier mentally and physically and also I don’t want my granddaughter to have memories of me drinking alcohol
When I decided to start abstaining it really overwhelmed me to think of NEVER drinking again, so it was easy for me to instead think just for today, just for this week, oh just for another week I will quit and that ultimately lead to me being able to have longer and longer periods of absence AND it allowed for me to give myself grace when I did slip up. Really a powerful mindset shift.
I have two little girls to live for, however I always have to remind myself that I'm doing this for me, but so I can be a better father. Great video man!
I’m sorry to hear about the loss of your friend 😢 If I was in your shoes, one question I would ask myself is, what would my friend have wanted me to do to honor him? ✌🏻❤️
Thank You. He is loved and will be missed by many. The music community I am a part of has decided to put a benefit concert together in his memory. My band will be playing and in our set will be playing a song that he loved to sing.
@ oh wow, I bet that’s gonna be a beautiful thing to feel and hear. Did he have a favorite meal? Sometimes I find myself thinking about some of the favorite meals my late mother enjoyed, making for me or enjoyed herself or from childhood
Hi, I don't know you, but have you been to a professional for help? If not you really should! This world is more beautiful with you in it! You deserve to enjoy the benefits of sobriety!! Keep going!

Plus/ DONT JUDGE YOURSELF! If you slip, try again. Never give up.
There's a round of applause with your name on it sir. Congratulations. Remember keep it simple.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🇺🇸🇬🇧

@@ENOUGHISTOOMUCH207that’s right man- don’t ever judge yourself, be proud because you can do it- you always get up and try again.

That is fantastic! Keep it up!!
I have been sober since June. One day I woke up and I was just sick and tired of it and so I stopped and I haven’t felt the urge since.
@@Jesse-0008 That's where I'm at. It's just not worth it.
