Some advices? I dont want to completely stop drinking forever but i want a detox and then drink a lilnfrom timrr to time, its hard for me as its help me with ny anxiety and depresssion
In my drinking days I externalized the demon and gave it a name, and pictured it as a large gorilla (believe it or not) trying to intimidate me into drinking. When I quit I visualized locking it into a cage with the bars welded shut, no way to exit or enter the cage
I have never commented before but I found your channel shortly after my husband's alcohol related death. I never understood completely what his addiction to alcohol was doing to his brain until it was to late. That is actually how I found your videos searching for wet brain. I wish I knew the symptoms prior to his accident ,it might not have changed the out come but it would have helped me understand things better. I continue to watch still trying to make sense of it all. Thank you for sharing your story ..it's truly helping me understand the disease better and helps me to stop blaming myself for not knowing or understanding what all he was going through.
Thanks for the comment. I really appreciate you sharing your story. I had losses in my own life to alcohol so I understand where you are coming from. Don't blame yourself. If someone is intent on continuing the habit, there's not much anyone can do... even those closest.
@Jo In I hope you have success and beat liver cancer. What you say about alcohol being hard to beat is so true. I was able to stop drinking it for 102 days straight this year, but it's back in my life now. Damn it.
@Jo In I totally understand when you say you treat other people better than you treat yourself. Why do we self punish? No matter what makes us act this way, whether its trauma or just low confidence, we don't deserve this shit were inflicting upon ourselves. You probably already know that, its so fukin hard to stop but everyday I keep telling myself 'your better than this, you don't deserve to do this to yourself' over and over and over again.......were doing something we hate! Why? .... actually look at it like this too.... your not being nicer to other people at all... your being a selfish arsehole! So stop copping out in self pity! All your loved ones don't think its nice of you to weigh heavy on there hearts. Constantly worrying about you, wondering when there going to be burying you...is that being nice?? No is it fuck...... your still looking for excuses and blame.... YOU can stop it and I hope you do, you deserve better and I'm pretty sure you owe it to your loved ones to stop too. They'd rather you was a sober prick than a drunk wimp.....c,mon lets go man....x
I had the demon from the movie "legend " tattooed on half of my back, one hand reaching for my head the other hand chained down. Almost 11 years sober now, the demon is still chained down. People have to be responsible for there actions.
Quitting drinking isn't about saving your marriage, your job or your reputation. It's about saving yourself, because without keeping yourself first, all those other things aren't possible.
"When I was in Costa Rica, somebody described the purpose of alcohol with plant medicine: you use alcohol to extract the essence of a plant. And I thought, 'That is exactly how alcohol makes me feel. As though it is extracting my essence.' Which is why I have avoided it for so long." -Megan Fox
I have never commented before, but have been listening a while and this was everything I needed to hear in a short, to the point video!!! Thank you soooooo much!!
i always wanted to make a channel to talk about my alcoholism battles but i don't know how to edit videos. i just got an ultrasound and was told im at the beginning stage of cirrhosis at age 34.
My brother in law has drank alcohol 🍸 for 30 years . I mean when I say he's drank...he has drank 24/7 for his entire 30 years of his life. Not only has he ruined his 30 years , He's ruined his 2 daughters lives, his wonderful abiding wife of 36 years. When my B.I.L. Jimmy drank he would turn into dr. Jekyll and Mr 🤪 Crazy. Jimmy got to a point where the Drinking wasn't enough. He added Marijuana. This made him start slurring and becoming more obnoxious . Then Jimmy added cocaine . ALL THE WHILE HE WOULD RUN TO REHAB TO TRY TO GET HELP TO DRY OUT. This would last about 2 weeks if that, then back on the crazy 🤪 🚆 train. One time he got so drunk and snorted large amounts or cocaine and he barricaded himself into the house. His 3 teenage girls coming home from school they put their key 🔑 into the door 🚪 as he was baracaded into his closet having serious paranoid thoughts that aliens 👽 was tryin to kill him. Luckily his 2 girls , the older one went to the apartment managers office and used the telephone to call her mom at work and tell her the situation. Mama 🐻 bear comes home and literally had to go talk to him thru the bedroom window for him to come out and she had to convince him there was no aliens around. So after 30 years of rehab and abuse to his wife and girls he said he felt a tugging in his heart to go to this different rehab who offered holistic help along with a hospital environment of nurses who could do a I.V. alcohol taper becuase he had violent seizures from detox alcohol withdrawal tremors. So after 1 week in the new rehab he was able to come off everything thru prayer and fasting and with God and the awesomeness of the new rehab facility that closely monitored him. This time he stayed clean for 3 years. He was like a different person . A good person and good father and husband now. It did damage to the family which they all are still counseled and still going to al*anon. But I just wanted to tell this really happens and there is a serious spiritual attachment of some kind. They don't call alcohol SPIRITS for no reason. I pray for anyone who is struggling with any sort of addiction and wants to quit the addiction but they do not understand there is alot of help out tbere . U just have to number 1 admit u are powerless over the addiction and that you are willing to get help and rehab to be FREE OF THIS ATTACHMENT. AMEN.Jesus saves
@@talulatree5297 The demon will manifest out of you. Now unless you seriously want to rid of it, you must repent, ask for forgiveness for putting what is Gods body in such unhealthy ways. Yes, I have been through it and don’t remember most of what it said/did but I was delivered! Amen!🙏🏼💞
I think this only applies to people who have a problem...i think they're may some who can take or leave it and maybe have a few drinks a month.im not one of those im trying to get smashed every weekend which results in bad decisions and hangovers
I used to watch your old show maybe 10 years ago or so. I rather enjoy the walks outdoors to go along with your narrative. That said, the last time I watched you, you were in Spain, and the landscape was less mountainous. If you don't mind my asking, where are you filming now? (Thanks for the helpful videos, and I wish you and yours the best.)
Alcohol does open the doors to demons yes..
I feel better not drinking alcohol ❤
15 days sober. Looking to continue this wonderful feeling
🙏
sg - congrats ! keep going.

Your 100% correct its a demon in a bottle
I had the demon from the movie "legend " tattooed on half of my back, one hand reaching for my head the other hand chained down. Almost 11 years sober now, the demon is still chained down. People have to be responsible for there actions.
Nine months sober, bye bye Demon 😊
Quitting drinking isn't about saving your marriage, your job or your reputation. It's about saving yourself, because without keeping yourself first, all those other things aren't possible.
You don't suck out of the bottle, the bottle sucks the life out of you 😥😥😥👍🙏
Excellent. We become empowered when we are free of this burden. Thank you again for great words of encouragement.
Thanks Judith
Yeah it's actually spirits ! Not escaping self responsibility but it's almost like the Carl Jung Shadow theory ...just food for thought

She ingests blood instead
It's how it makes you feel and alcohol makes you feel numb and that's why people keep drinking
Yes. It's worse than numb. Some drink for complete insensibility. Very sad.
Thank you sincerely for your ongoing help Kevin.

It's a bridge... hard to go back after you see them... but good luck and great video.
Maybe the demon part is if one comes physically addicted?
Lost a good friend to the booze yesterday, he was only 45 yrs old.
Is why they call it spirits.
I believe so. My mother always said, i see you avoided the "demon rum" last night! Referring to a rare night where i wouldnt drink.
@@chadadamssr thats the one
The term spirits was coines by German alchemists to describe the distilling process.
Kindly pray for me to stop beer drinking and the demon behind it
You are the one with all the power. Remind yourself of that.

Glad it was helpful!
So true , it’s YOU!!!!!

AMEN 🙏🙌❤ Thank you, Jesus 😭🙌🙏
I truly believe Jesus is the way as well. Thank you for sharing that story.
@@talulatree5297 💯 yessss
Praise god❤❤ Jesus set me free 17yrs I struggled
Go ahead and drink it and then try going into a deliverance session 😵💫
Omg, what happens? Have you seen one? Wouldn't the demon keep someone from doing that?
@@talulatree5297 The demon will manifest out of you. Now unless you seriously want to rid of it, you must repent, ask for forgiveness for putting what is Gods body in such unhealthy ways. Yes, I have been through it and don’t remember most of what it said/did but I was delivered! Amen!🙏🏼💞
Thankyou for another fantastic video , you are what everybody needs when quitting alcohol 👌👌
Been following for awhile. Lookin good man.
In practicality it’s much more simple than we think
Ozzy Osbourne has a song called the demon alcohol. One of the lyrics is Although one's to much you tens not enough.
Thank you. Very good points 👍😀❤️
I think this only applies to people who have a problem...i think they're may some who can take or leave it and maybe have a few drinks a month.im not one of those im trying to get smashed every weekend which results in bad decisions and hangovers
I have allergic to alcohol.
Once I put into my body I breakout into drunks.

Perfect!
I need help

@Jo In Thank you! :-)
I crave chocolate fudge cake! Demons live in chocolate fudge cake.
Sounds like sugar addiction...
😎🤝
❤❤❤
It’s not the demon… your incapacity to remain conscious on the reality you share with others allowed in a demon
Fight like your life depends on sobriety.....cuz, oh yeah it does
I never drank until my mom died. It works for awhile. Now I know it doesn’t last. 🥲
