  • In this video I talk about why I was afraid to get and stay sober. I had a tremendous fear of being sober. I no longer have this fear.
    I am happily sober.
    I've been living a life of sobriety since September 2019.

    Sobriety delivers everything alcohol promised.
    Everything goes back to your childhood.
    We're all the same.

    Excellent video. I've had similar thoughts through out the process. I'm at 8 months, and that's still just the beginning.

    The title got me. I used to think that also. Now I am afraid not to be sober! Life is just better without it. Period

    Good stuff man. Great content and i can absolutely relate to everything youre saying. Im never going tonsay that im never going to drink again because the reality is that i might. The problem is that while i know i have another run in me, im not sonsure that ibhave another revovery. And the way that i drank and drugged was going to kill me. One thing indo knownis that im not going to drink today and, god willing, im not going to drink tomorrow. In recovery, we all go to bed sober and wake up the next day an alcoholic. ODAAT.

      @843Mixin-mn5vm me too. By Gods grace I make it to work, then go home and lock the door, I don’t want to be mean because of not being in a good place so I stay away, alone with God. I talk to God, not a formal prayer but a conversation, even if it’s a monologue. Although I’m avoiding humans at this time, I’m not alone, I know God is with me, not intruding but sitting with me, in my sorrow. Have hope you have invisible helpers

    I drink every day. Just need to mitigate it. Don't drink before 4 pm, run 5km every morning. Know your limit to that tipping point. Eat healthy....

      You can do your part and get sober and make positive changes. But don't expect relationships to get magically fixed. You made your bed, now you have to lay in it. Don't push or pressure the people you hurt to forgive you.

    Did you know fructose had the same effect as alcohol on the liver. I don't drink because health is wealth and misery loves company.
    Was sober for a year my old drinking buddies were very resentful and never offered to do anything worth while. Just drink, order appies and play keno and pull tabs. Do lines of coke in the pubs washroom. Talk about shit they'll never do.

    Holy shit do I relate to the “seeking validation” thing. Especially with women. I also donned a character of sorts when I was neck-deep in my own alcoholism. Instead of Ryan Gosling from Drive I would cater to the likeness of Saul Goodman or Sam Hyde or some bullshit like that. I was so uncomfortable with myself around people that I would use booze to accentuate these toxic areas if my ego in the vain hopes of being more liked or hiding my own uneasiness
