Day 465. I cannot believe that I use to operate hungover all the time. There’s nothing worse than being hungover at work and then having alcohol withdrawals at the same time.
omg those days 😔
Yeah for sure. You said it perfectly. Incredible that was our reality before. But thank god for miracles and people like you to share the truth. We hope you're doing well these days!
Exactly. It is hard to believe how much misery I have put myself through ever morning, just to feel better by 3pm, and then rinse and repeat. It was like a nightmarish version of Ground Hog day. 465 is amazing. Congrats.
@@xavierbreath2227 We feel you on that. It's insane. Glad to know you're aware and healing. Stay smart and stay free!
My drinking has never done anything for me
It’s my first Friday night sober in about 15 years. It’s tough. Tomorrow is the big one though. This is day 6 of sobriety and I’m home watching this video and it’s helping. I managed to go out with friends from work and only drink soda water this evening. Thanks for the help.
Sobriety is like a broken leg. It needs time to heal.
It doesn't need entertainment, a walk, a jog and certainly NO RUNNING.
This is the time you need, you owe it to yourself. The relationship with yourself is the most important one. It's the only one that you'll have EVERY DAY.
This is the time to work on your physical health, your mental health, new hobbies, exercise, diet, maybe some therapy, skies the limit.
When you're ready to do more you'll know. Just don't jeopardize your sobriety!
Comment often when you watch other videos. I will respond when I can.

You still sober?
Still sober. Yes i am. Im alive.
3+1/2 years sober. I've never felt better and don't miss it at all (I had a serious drink problem for 30 years).
Time to get YOU back! congrats my friend!
Today is day 8! Past the one week mark.
Just in time to join us for our Livestream at 7pm Eastern 😀
One of the benefits of quiting alcohol is you create a positive butterfly effect. I mentioned this in one of the other episodes but to explain it further its when one small change results in many huge differences down the road. In this case positive differences such as. Your health improves in a big way, your family benefits, your financial state could drastically change for the better. Everything in your life gets better when you quit drinking. You've created a butterfly effect. And you can plan all kinds of butterfly effects in your life by doing things like, going back to school, volunteering in the community, giving music lessons to children. The possibilities are endless you just have to use your imagination. When you get sober you free your minds imagination. 😌
nice comment chuck!!!
@HoboGardenerBen I know what you mean. When I quit alcohol and weed I thought I might as well get all the addictive drugs out of my body so I quit coffee too. Keep up the great work. Sounds like you are doing awesomely!!!
Thank you my friend. Thanks for your reply just the other day too. Love that “butterfly effect”. People may not truly grasp the exponential nature of this. But it is mind boggling if we rid ourselves of alcohol. Of course, for entertainment you could actually watch the movie “ The butterfly effect “ which I also liked way back.
The movies sub quote is, “ Change one thing,
Change everything………..”. I love that. All the best. Talk to you again.
💯
Day 85 here... just be aware for anyone discouraged with the journey in anyway, between the 60-90 day period it is very common to slump into a state of depression. The body goes into a high detox stage, I am experiencing it now. It makes you wonder if quitting was worth it, however, once you heal from this depression (which is only a matter of days or weeks depending on how you deal with it) of course the mind comes back stronger. What's amazing about coming close to the 90 day mark, quitting completely does not seem unreasonable or unattainable. The benefits have been vast up until this point and apparently once you reach the one year mark the healing is incredible. Trust in the process team, you're going places.
What a great comment. Totally agree, went thru it myself 😎
@@GettingSoberAgain - what a phenomenal channel you've created here bro. You're changing and saving lives.
@@johnnylongshlong3677 What a lovely comment to start my day to! How about I'll see your call and raise you CHECK OUT OUR NEW OFFICIAL WEBSITE! just launched it! www.gettingsoberagain.com
Coincidentally I found myself being tested 6-9 months later the same way
@@GettingSoberAgain - So the research says it's common to happen three times in the first 12 months. The reason for this is because we have induced dopamine (the reward chemical) into our bodies for so long with booze that the body is still waiting for this high/escape from our natural state. You're already beginning to achieve physical changes in the brain in the early stages from quitting but the consistent/permanent changes really happen apparently after 12 months.
Between your video, and all of these inspiring comments, I'm stoked that I found this channel! After more than a decade of daily heavy drinking, I am 15 days sober today, and going strong! Thank you for this.
Hey Steve!! I'm glad you found us too.. RUclips can be overwhelming at times. Stick with it. We need to prove to ourselves that we are stronger than what we believe we have become
Day 4 for me, feel good. 20 plus years of heavy drinking. good luck bud
@@shultis1 4 days is awesome! Keep it up. I'm proud of you for taking those first steps. I'm on day 88 today and it feels great. Put your mind to it, and you will succeed.
Congratulations!
@@julieevans4926 Thank you! I'm almost 5 months in now.
I decided to quit drinking for a week. A week became a month and now has become 2 years. Motivation? Positive benefits.
No one will ever regret giving up alcohol. It doesn’t really taste that good and it puts a negative spin on almost every person I have ever known. If someone wanted to claim that alcohol tastes great, how long would you drink it as much as you do now if the alcohol was removed.
Suddenly a case of beer probably doesn’t sound so tasty.
Truthfully after the first 6 months I could see the sudden difference in anyone’s personality after they even had one drink.
Even the most good hearted person in the world will find a method to become an ass with enough alcohol...
And frankly, it’s never a bonus.
I don’t miss it, rarely ever think about it, and have lost interest in a lot of former friends and activities associated with drinking. If friendship and activities are requiring a bar, they’re we were the 1st things to fade away.
Im loving life without. Literally
This is one of the best comments on any of our videos! I'm very happy that you took the time to share! Thank you
@@GettingSoberAgain and thank you for putting it out there with honesty
I appreciate your comment!! As well as others… Just Day #2 for me after going back and forth just to get sucked back in. But this time I Aim to win!! 😊
It’s year later and still as happy without
Recently quit for 3 weeks, had two beers the other night and was kinda let down …. Didn’t have the flavour I remember craving … back to no booze for me
I was losing bone density even though I was taking vitamins. I ended up with Ostrapenia. Quitting alcohol helped me with quitting vaping,then I felt better and joined a gym. I actually feel younger and hopefully rebuilding bones. 10 months sober.
10 MONTHS WOOOOO!!!!!
@@GettingSoberAgain it is a year now since June . I had a dream that they had a sale on wine coolers and I started to drink some, one of my adult children saw me in my dream and said your back to that now? It was my reminder that the kids are watching .
@@Bidenislying God bless the children 👼
Awesome! Good luck
Whoa why were you losing bone density
I'm at 90 days. I love this episode. Please don't change it 🙏🏼🙂💙
Hi there Food Eye Cue 💖
Sobriety is so RockN'Roll to me. It truly feels special. Endless smiles! Learning social tools and adding them to the tool belt.
NEW SOCIAL TOOLS 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🧡💙💙❤️💛😁👏😻
4 yrs bottle of whiskey a week after my sweetheart died in motorcycle accident. I saved all the bottles, don’t know why. 2019 was very lonely. I too made excuses and took the fk it pill. Today 10/30/23 my “sobering “ wake up call with new symptoms and feeling like something bad is going to happen soon, decided I’d rather be fishing than having a stroke. Today is day one. BP 160/110 was always 122/77. Thank you for putting your videos in the universe. Be 60 in July. Next is the smoking. 45 yrs. One human to another, find a purpose, even if it’s fishing. ML&R
congratulations to making this very important decision for your health and your longevity! I also too quit on October 30th this last time 3 years ago!
before I quit my blood pressure was 160 over 90, and after just 30 days of sobriety it went all the way back down to about 120 over 70.
You know what needs to be done now. just a matter of being patient with yourself and being persistent along your journey to see your goals come for fruition!

I can relate to you about a loved one passing away I did the same thing the last year and a half has been hell started drinking way too much just recently stopped filling so much better good luck to you
I’ve always been a binge drinker and I’ve always drank often. After a recent breakup I drank literally every day for almost two months. I drank a fifteen pack A day during the week and a flat per day on weekends. It was absolutely disgusting behaviour. I’m on day three without it and it actually went ok. Im going to try sobriety for a month and see how I feel. If all goes well I’ll go another month
How'd you go?
Only 2 months? It's been almost 4 years. Not one day off. This is fucked
How much is “a flat per day”?
Can I ask you - what is a "flat per day" ?
Flat: A flat beverage is lacking in crispness and is often difficult to drink and enjoy even if the flavor is pleasant. In sparkling beverages the term flat means that it lacks carbonation.
38 days sober, I used to be so numb to my emotions while using alcohol. And the biggest thing I’ve noticed so far, is how intensely i feel my emotions now.
My body also isnt in as much casual pain as it used to be, my back would hurt all the time.
And im slowly coming out of the brain fog, its still pretty bad along with the dissociation, but ive noticed im able to carry out thoughts just little better.
My mother was/is a alcoholic when i was growing up and it was normalized around me and also pushed on me. So ive been drinking on and off since probably 13 years old. Im 23 now.
The biggest reason why i am able to begin my sobriety journey is because i started to heal from my trauma, and finally being in a healthy situation in a healthy relationship with someone who holds me accountable and gives me all the support i could ever ask for, keeps me going and pushing.
You have to have a good enough reason why to stop drinking to actually get yourself to stop, and everyones reason is different.
Im thankful that ive found my reason while im still young and able to make changes before things got TOO extreme.
That disassociate part is real, I was starting to feel like I was in a dream. Not real
I was drinking almost a fifth every day. Now ive weaned myself down to less than a third of that. 8 days from now will be my first day with 0 alcohol. Binging these videos instead of binge drinking 💪
❤ Same here...in 15 days it will be day one and I'm getting impatient, wanting to quit cold turkey but never sticks when I did that in the past so I'm trying it Jaes way this time...😂
@kristikiser8762 quitting cold turkey can be very dangerous. I once had two seizures from withdrawal and ended up in the hospital. Stay safe and stay strong.
Been sober for 80+ days. i am living my best life in close to 30 years of drinking every day. everything in this video is truth, thank god ive found your channel. god bless!
the dizziness issue came up with me, and it turned out to be a loss of thiamine levels relating to an imbalance of blood sugar. A chat with my doctor got me on thiamine supplements. that made the dizziness go away and now it's levelled off after 80 days.
How are you holding up JP??
Hey how are you doing now? Sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders!
Bruh you look way better from the 90 DAYS WOW.
I never realized how bad alcohol is mentally i only thought about the pysical affects like being hung over. It gives you anxiety, depression, and low self esteem.
I've definitely experienced most of these benefits when I've gotten close to 90 days. I've never quite made it to 90 since I've started drinking, but I'm getting there (and much farther) this time. For now I've got 8 days done and the weekend conquered by walking myself out of drinking thoughts. 5 miles in the evening seems to do the trick.
Great work champ! 8 days down, keep it up!
Hey alright! Collecting more knowledge and helpful tools and also providing a helpful comment for others to relate to and use! Keep it up 👍🏽
@@bigrus0078 nice!!! How long has it been since you've had 10 days?!
@@GettingSoberAgain hey champ, rolling into day 13 today, tomorrow is 2 weeks!. Its's 4.45am here and just getting up to head to the gym. Hope you are well champ and winning those pool games 😉👍.
@@bigrus0078 fantastic work!!! Man 2 weeks just flew by! I hope you feel the same and full of momentum 💪🏽
I have quit at the age of 35 and taken up weight lifting and boxing.
I have finally became sober... Again just like the title 🤣 but for once I finally have found a way to maintain it. I'm now going just past my 6 week mark and I have never made it this far before. Each day is just like you describe, and each day is getting better. I have started on some supplements and vitamins to help get my energy level up and I'm finally able to do things like I did before my alcohol career. I just found this chanel about 2 weeks ago. I am glad to see someone is actually out putting it like it is. Keep up the good work.
Thank you brother!! Congrats on 6 weeks, it must be a good feeling right?? How long was your "drinking career?" Keep in touch I always love to hear positive updates :)
Outstanding..
@@GettingSoberAgain my drinking career was for 27 years and I will never let that take control of my life ever again. It does feel so good to finally be getting healthy again.thanks again
@@dantrejo5333 much love
It's been almost a year since you posted this, I sure hope that you are still doing great, if not reread your own post
I turn 40 in 2 weeks. 25 yrs of "partying" has finally worn me out but terrified as well. Thanks for the vids, giving me a lot to look forward to & congrats on your own sobriety as well :)
Alcohol just hits different now doesn't it? Keep us posted in the comments, I look forward to hearing about your positive progress
I'm 40 in 2 months and I'm now 85 days sober. How are you going now bro? Hope you're doing well no matter whether you're drinking or not...
@@gwillis01 Thanks Gwin
Your comment really hits home for us. Very well said. We're right there with you. Hope you're doing good now!
I love your videos. I am a licensed mental health counselor, and I'm also trained as a drug/alcohol educator and counselor. My hat is off to you...kudos on everything. These videos are phenomenal and spot on. I am referring people to this sight. I work mainly on military bases around the world where support services are less than in the US. Thank you for all you do. Sincerely, Lindy
Oh wow Lindy thank you so much!!! Can you please come to one of our Livestreams? We are doing one tonight at 7-9pm eastern and every Friday/Sunday as well. We need more qualified people in the chats to give advice rather than opinion.
Feel free to email me at GETTINGSOBERAGAIN@GMAIL.COM
Thank you for being a blessing to so many 🥰🥰🥰
Hi. I’d love to join sometime. Right now it’s not possible as I’m winding down an assignment in the UK. I’ll be back in the US on March 30. Let me know if a time after March 30. I’d gladly support all your efforts. Warmly, Lindy
@@lindyhaunschild1091 we will eagerly await your support and wish you safe travels until then 🙏🏼🦸🏻♀️♥️
I have to admit that I did expect more...more happiness, the first time I stopped drinking. I suppose I made it more difficult when I left my husband, but I made it....for 5 more years.
Just filling out my employment contract as the wisdom flows...
Congrats to you! That's great news. No boss, no sauce, just floss 😂
@@GettingSoberAgain I get to listen to you by choice instead of being told what to do and watched all day.. life is becoming beautiful
@@PRESSPLAYRADIO woaaaah! That's the life. I sometimes listen to myself, especially when ice cream is involved 😂🥳
I just decided to quit alcohol, or stop and reset at least, so this video is definitely very helpful. I'm already down the road to recovery from being a pack-a-day smoker to a non-smoker now for over 2 years, so alcohol was the obvious next step in this journey. Thanks again and wishing you good health!
May you receive all of the blessings coming your way!!
This channel rocks..
I’ve never been depressed and I’m not lying about it. There are people out there who just aren’t depressed.
NOICE!
These videos are really opening my eyes and giving me hope again. I'm at the point of drinking a handle every 4-5 days. I'm starting my journey today of being sober again today. Wish me luck and pray for me
Luck and vibes coming your way!!!💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Hope you are doing well Nick May 🙏
Great episode. Watched it twice. I’m 64 days sober and I’m using Getting Sober Again as one of my most valuable resources.
I'm 29 years young. I have been in denial about being in denial for far too long. I feel like I'm the biggest hypocrite I know because I never practice what I preach. I feel like the 2 biggest problems with the world is impatience and laziness, and I am consumed by both. So with that being said, I feel quite grateful for randomly stumbling upon your videos Jae. THIS has given me more inspiration and motivation than I have experienced in a long... long time.
Sometimes we have to be the motivation we are looking for! Thank YOU for keeping ME on track! Make sure to subscribe, you're going to want to binge watch my now 95 episodes to get you thru this journey
Impatient and laziness that was spot all I needed to hear because that’s me I work and pay my bills but once I get off I go home and drink Hennessy and some beers even though I know I need to switch up my routine thanks
Sobriety is the best, and though I often thought that I was sober when I was drinking, like between bouts of drinking, I don’t think I really was. There was always a longing for alcohol and a kind of treading water between drinking sessions, not real sobriety. Waking up after a deeply restful night’s sleep is only the tip of the sobriety iceberg. Good luck to everyone starting an alcohol free life.
Love the positivity Patrick!
Need this video everyday. Ive struggled the past few weeks....i got bored, so i thought, fomo etc kicked in and my low mood felt like it was growing not shrinking in sobriety... but ive realised its not a thunderbolt shift....but boy its better than the anxiety hungover irritable non doing that drinking creates. 😢
You said it!
This is a wonderful series of videos. Thank you so very much for this. I have been sober since January 10 of 2010. I can relate to all of this. Keep on keeping on! Peace and blessings always.
Holy Moses!!!! 11+ years?!! It's time for you to start dropping some knowledge in the comments! Cheers!!
Dude, your channel is the best I've came across on RUclips. I have been drinking heavily for half my life. I'm 33 and from the U.K. I'm a music teacher and father , I've decided its now or never I stop. I'm day 5 into my journey and your channel is making me feel so positive about my journey. Alcohol was the main reason for the breakdown in my relationship and most of negative aspects in my life. My friends want me to go out tonight for one of their birthdays. I watch your videos and no what I have to and more importantly want to do. Thank you and bless!
woaaaaaaaah!!!!! what a lovely comment and congrats to you on regaining control of the ship! some people are just lost our at sea with no direction and don't even know how badly they're even lost. you're making the steps, now it's time to keep putting in the practice and be patient.
if you're not there yet, what do you do? KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP GOING!!!!!💪🏽
Hi PB LIDG just checking in to see how you are doing! this is a great community here at getting sober and I am glad you are here!
@@CD-zy5te Hey man. I'm really good thanks! Hope you're keeping well. Firstly, Thanks for the message. I'm 15 days sober today! this is the longest I've been without alcohol and other substances since about the age of 15-16, I'm 33. I feel good even though I've had a cold the past few days. I have spent some quality time with my son and I'm more productive at work. I've been to the pub with friends and family and just drank diet coke, I didn't actually find it that difficult. That's not to say I wont in the future. Thanks for the love.
@@pblidg7858 that is fantastic! Thank you for letting know that you are doing great! I remember in the beginning of my sobriety journey I spent time daily listening to Jae and a couple other channels. I didnt know at the time how important that would become. You see I was building up knowledge and affirmations so I would not have to depend on only willpower later. When Jae and SamE get back from their road trip I hope to see you in the live stream chat sometime!
Day 65 for me. It's about my 20th time trying and this is the record. This time has been much easier, quitting smoking took me a bunch of tries too, sometimes you have to just keep at it.
NEW RECORD!!!????? Well then let's just keep smashing thru that ceiling of accomplishments shall we?
💯 congrats
Ah, the much anticipated 90 day video!! It exceeded my expectations! There's so much content in this video, it's almost unbelievable, except that I know you are a very genuine person and not just making it up. Down to the increased credit score! 😀 I must say, you saved the best for last. Your before, Day 1 picture versus now are like not even the same person! You look so much younger and healthier! Your whole demeanor is more vivacious And full of vitality. Thanks for putting this together and congratulations to you on getting all those benefits!!
If we all experience even some of those things, the world would be a better place!!
Thank you so much! I had a great time working on it and I hope it was worth the wait :)
Having a hard day today, 46 days in and this one helped me understand some of what I'm feeling today so as always thanks jae.👍👊
Glad to hear our old classics are still doing magic. Stay blessed!
Remember these days Cave Man? Now you're coming up on 1 year!!!
@@GettingSoberAgain thats right bro one year is coming up!!!!
the giggle that you give after a statement gets me every time lol. thanks for the video man
Awww thanks! Im a fan of laughing. Too many years of being irritable, angry and guarded is not good for our Mental Health
112 days in now💯🙏
Bone Thugs what's up??? I was just over on Superior e30-Heights all day 💪🏽
This is my first video from this channel. The channel description describes me. I'm almost 60 and have drank since I was a teanager. I quit for 6 months a few years ago and then went through a traumatic event and started drinking to cope. I so wish i would have held out after 6 months. I finally decided I had to make a change 5 days ago and started the journey again. Thanks for the channel and wisdom!
It's never too late to get yourself back! I'm happy to hear from you, and I love your name 😎
90 days and counting..so happy.. I started drinking when I was young and was addicted for 16 years.. First time hitting this mark
I’m on day 69 today without alcohol. I’m 41 and started drinking daily in the last 10 years. Before that I was a “weekend warrior”.
What resonated with me was Jae’s clarification on reasonable expectations when quitting drinking. I guess I assumed I would regain the energy and stamina of my 20s and it would happen within the first 40 days.
Well, not so much, but my back pain has almost completely gone away and lost 10 pounds in the first 3 weeks, but plateaued after that.
I would agree that this time right now, days (60-90) has its own challenges like not seeing much improvement during this time yet getting cravings more often than a couple weeks earlier.
I’ll push through to 90 and see what I’m able to achieve next.
Keep going!!!

2.5 years after my last band was destroyed by a brother turned snake who left us for a management deal which collapsed 6 months later and it took this long to start a new band with the ultimate lineup and an investor/studio producer .. now we are rehearsing every week in prep for the dark veil of lockdown being finally lifted this summer.. nothing better to look forward to with the principle motivation to stay sober being the unassailable ambition to be the best bassman I can be in the best band I can co-create in the glorious Southwest of England ..
I think we're all dying to hear some of your music Nat...so....?🤭🤗
@@GettingSoberAgain stay tuned, me hearties ..soon come with audio bonanza summer 2021 and I'll make sure you get the US exclusive.. I'm a man of my word
Came for the info, stayed for the micro giggles in between each benefit
AAWWWWWWWWWW!!! you're an angel haha. You'd be surprised how many people send me negative messages for my giggles. Keep being you!
I quit at 60 . Wish I'd done this sooner. Luckily I've no affects of moderate drinking for 40+ years. Many do.
Great vid
May you continue to be blessed and live this new chapter with great health, integrity and wonderful achievements!
Hi Graham, just checking in to see how you are doing! this is a great community here at getting sober and I am glad you are here!
@@CD-zy5te thank you for getting in touch. I've waiver a bit. Holiday to Italy in the middle of vineyards was to much. Not getting drunk . Just meal drinking. Only thing is now I'm home it's creeping in again. It's Monday and I'm going to STOP. If there was someone to text or WhatsApp when I was on holiday to say. Don't do it. I wouldn't have. Anyway heels dug in. Once the first week is out of the way I'll be back on track . Thank you for getting in touch .
@@grahamwinteringham6012 I remember in the beginning of my sobriety journey I spent alot of time listening to Jae and a couple other channels. I didnt know at the time how important that would become. You see I was building up knowledge and affirmations so I would not have to depend on only willpower. "It is easier to stay sober than to get sober" dont stop trying and keep coming back, we'll be here!
Today I am 1 year 1/2 sober! 18 months. 🥳🥳🥳
Congrats to you today my friend!!! We shouted you out on our Facebook group!!
facebook.com/groups/gettingsoberagain/?ref=share
April 1st will be 90 days for me. My waist is slimming and I just did my first motorcycle rally sober. That was the ultimate test for me and I passed it
Niiiiice 🏁
Glad you're not riding a motorcycle when you're not sober any more. Sheesh
Really enjoying your channel. I’ve had a bad week of drinking and feel like absolute dirt inside and out.
I’m so disappointed in myself. Thank you for sharing your journey.
It's my pleasure to be of assistance. Stay in touch and thanks for being positive :)
I know what its like pal it sucks. But it happens to everyone and it happens so easily. I know I've been there many a time. But the flip side is you always get a reset. So dust yourself off and when you get your willpower built up again you'll be ready to shoot for the stars!!! Good luck!!! :D
@@MrChucktait thanks for the assist chuck!
I totally feel you I’m on day 4 getting off all my vices and I’m feeling sick. The room is spinning and my vision gets tracers. I drink water take Benadryl then try to sleep it off
The only good thing about hitting the bottom of the proverbial barrel is that there is only one way out and that is turning around!! You got this! If you did then, or if you are now, you can turn around and climb out of the barrel! Try not to beat yourself up too much, that just distracts you from climbing out, really. None of us is faultless.
Hi Jae!!! On day 9. Its going good. Painted the shed today and it was really sunny and warm. Said to the wife, you know if there was a good day for a nice cold beer this is it. She was like oh no lol but I was fine. I found that mental preparedness is helping this time. Before when it was sunny and warm that was my excuse to hit the beer store but I found that if I'm mindful of nature like sound of the birds and bugs, and maybe the bikini next door lol just kidding, it feels really good to experience these things sober. I have a lot more energy also to get things done around the yard because I've been able to put the dope away too. I was using as a crutch if the acohol cravings got too much but I haven't needed this time. Really starting to feel better. Like you said though I do have bouts of depression too and I think that's par for the course. And I found meditation helps alot with that. That's about all I got today. Hope your health is getting better Jae. Got finish watching you video. Tty later pal be good!!! :D
Day 9! Nice work 👊
@@bigrus0078 thanks pal!!! :D
Ugh, I remember the feeling of waking up and wanting water SO bad. My apartment is very small and my kitchen is right off the bedroom. It felt like a mile to go get water and sometimes I would crawl to the fridge because otherwise I'd bang into the wall. Crazy.
Thank you. Coming up on 90 days. Been fighting drinking for 16 years. Finding it esier evry day. Gotta stay the corse. Lost 30 pounds. Started lifting. And finally whent out and didnt kneed to drink to have fun
Activity Replacement Therapy! boom! Keep yourself preoccupied with better habits is KEY
We are going to shout you out tonight during our Livestream at 7pm eastern! See you there!!!
Hi kmg, just checking in to see how you are doing! this is a great community here at getting sober and I am glad you are here!
Hey cd thank you cd. Reached a little over 90 days. Faught through cravings yesterday and won. Trying to kick the sigs next
@@kmg2947 there you go! Sober strong 💪 I traded smoking for lozenges, but now I have been using those for a year. Time for me to just be done. Smoking and alcohol are similar addictions, 1 is too many when 1000 is never enough. Take care hope to see you in live sometime
Been binge watching ur videos, i`ve been sober 10 days then came across ur channel. U are helping me keep motivated and speak words of wisdom. Finally I`m ready to stop being a hostage to alcohol.Tomorrow I will start my fitness regime.Thanks for the help.
Great to hear! Keep us updated on your progress
Day 27 and feeling so good so far
I have never heard anyone present the self sabotage loop in a more understandable way! I think I just didn’t know how to get out of the loop. When deciding to accomplish something (anything, I love how you even throw “make bed” as an accomplishment), VS drinking, that really is the moment to “break in.” Then just do it again for the next task until self worth improves via the achievements (instead of the white claw cans) that pile up.
It’s so true: drinking alcohol leads to NOT accomplishing things, creating emptiness, leading to depression, and causing anxiety about the future… that leads to more drinking. Eloquently stated.
Today, thanks to you, I wasn’t the mom who opened the next bottle of wine while I looked depressed and overwhelmed at the huge stack of laundry, the lunches to pack, the kids to feed, the obligations I haven’t yet started… only to wake up tomorrow as my future self with all the same problems and more. Today, I was the mom who started those tasks one at a time with sobriety, got them all done, and my tomorrow self is going to be so proud.
(I did resist the urge to open the wine to celebrate my accomplishments - which clearly speaks to the work I have to do. But one thing at a time! Thank you!)
You are practicing, and it gets easier. Remember how hard it was to take your training wheels off, or to tie your shoes, or divide and multiply?
This is just another thing to learn, get used to, and apply to your daily life.
You deserve happy children and they deserve a happy and healthy mom.
Make this your motto moving forward: I will EARN my sleep
No more running away, no more avoiding, no more hiding. Naps are ok. but most of all, do what you need to do to reduce your daily stress. Maybe do more frequent laundry loads, instead of waiting until it's overwhelming.
Another motto I'm a big fan of is: Just do it now
There's no sense in putting things off, that's also just "tasking it to future you". You ARE future you.
Be on the same team. Be able to count on yourself. Be the change you wish to see!

Day number three so glad I found this channel, lots of encouragement and positive energy. When I’m feeling low, I’m just gonna fire up one of these videos.

This is wonderful on my 6th day. Thanks for taking the time to add the links, awesome. And you look and sound great!!!!
Thank you so much 🤗🤗🤗 I worked really hard on it. I've been writing the script since January 💪🏽
Going on day 4 but I definitely have a new outlook and I'm very thankful I found your account. Looking forward to the progression you've described and I'm very grateful for the content you create
Fantastic! thank you for the love it really means a lot. I don't know that most people understand how much emotional and creative energy it takes to produce videos like this to try and help people. so thank you for taking the time to be kind
I want to say that almost all of this benefits are extendibles to quitting weed. I´m giveing up alcohol and weed at the same time, and i feel so good although the cravings are still there.
I started alternate day fasting (46/2-40/8) a month ago. I was drinking on my eating days the first two weeks. One night, with one drink I had gotten a severe headache. Tried again 2 days later on my eating day and another severe headache. What a blessing that was! It’s been 14 days since that last drink and I have no desire to have another drink. I’m continuing the alternate day fasting for the autophagy benefits and cleaning out the toxins built up in my body from all the years of drinking.🥰
We certainly look forward to hearing your updates at 1 month plus! A lot of people get overconfident in the first few weeks, and we never hear from them again =(
@@GettingSoberAgain One month has passed and I still have zero desire to drink. I’m continuing ADF fasting and I’m loving it! The noticeable changes are- I’m happier and I am much more gabby, my skin looks better, my resting/sleeping heart rate is down 25 points, and my sleeping has drastically improved. 😍
So amazingly inspiring. You are a gift..
I am not sure how I found you .... but so happy I did.
I quit 6 days ago... I will come back here for inspiration.
That's such a nice thing to say, thank you!!!!!! This comment made my day, truly :) please keep in touch
91 days sober today !!! Everyone we can conquer this horrible devils liquid. 24 years young and I finally gave that bullshit up. It did take 8 years of drinking and me getting arrested basically assaulting a family member and going into jail almost breaking my wrist trying to take the cuffs off. The very next day I realized this is the line. Way over the line. I have 2 kids and my wife has been a with me thru everything. I realized how much my life would be fucked rn if I really did break my wrist that night. I probably would have a cast on as I’m writing this. Just know if I can make the change anybody ducking can. I was a lost cause. Much love everyone 100 days sober January 1st one day before my 25bday STARTING MY NEW CHAPTER OF LIFE SOBER
Thank you for sharing your success on your journey. I need to read this.
Woo-hoo, today is 100 days of sobriety fir me. :) completed a distance bachelor's and now starting the masters into doctorate. Amazing how much time opens up!!
Check the community tab :)
Hi Jennifer Blocker! 💖🤗
It feels like I have a time machine going back and forward watching your videos. Its so amazing you are over 2 years sober now! I am feeling better, day by day. I feel able to control my destiny, and the anxiety/panic is subsiding. I love your work Jae.
haha alright!! I designed the videos to be like having a friend giving you a daily pep talk. I'm glad they are still working 💪🏼
One week sober and my panic attacks are GONE
Great video!!! I’m currently 2 months sober (my personal record) and my plan is to make it 1 year without alcohol.

Come to our Livestream tonight at 7pm eastern! We are doing sober trivia. Congratulations on your 2 months!!!!🎈🎈🎈
140 ish days sober. Unlimited energy. Less gut. $600/month saved + booking more jobs since I wake up early. Not going back.
Great video I feel awesome when I don’t drink alcohol. I used to drink every day, actually for several years and now if I drink two or three drinks I feel awful
Thank for saying so Richard! I think that alcohol gives us "cold feet" to warming up to living life to it's fullest. There was a time where I couldn't do much without my alcohol crutch in my hand to navigate the world. Thank you for sharing your experience and feel free to share more! We have thousands of new people checking out our videos everyday. You never know who you will inspire!
@@GettingSoberAgain no doubt, I was a shy kid in school but when I discovered alcohol and certain drugs I went from a nobody to countless one night stands and relationships with many women , some older, some married and others just unfortunate enough to fall in love with me at the time. This went on for over 35 years and when I finally stopped, I didn’t have cravings, just a lot of guilt which was a trigger so one must not overlook the power a guilty conscience has over an alcoholic when they stop drinking. With that being said, one must understand the importance of their higher power to get them through.
Guy's like an asian Dave Grohl
Good stuff, Jae. On day 2 here...again. I was able to stop drinking for 4 months last year, which was the longest I've gone w/o alcohol since high school...and I'm in my 40's. Thanks for the inspiration and motivation. Keep it up, man!
Thanks John! I'll have a new episode out in a little while, check back and make sure you're subscribed with notifications on so you get the updates!😉

Great video mate
Just found this channel as i was look up withdrawals on alcohol, i have withdrawn a fair few time and i hated it, it was the worst time ever been tryimg to get sober for two years now, had some months off it here and there but as soon as i feel good i think "oh yeah i can just a few on the weekends like back in the days when i didnt have a problem with alchol" but then bad started small and just built back up to full blown drink everyday, so now going for my sixth time sober, good luck everyone i know its a hard journey
Don't forget, a video a day keeps the cravings away!

Congratulations on your 90 days of not drinking. I quit drinking several decades ago and for the first couple of years took things one day at a time, that definitely works. So does searching out some help, in my case that was AA, it's really tough to obtain healthy sobriety on your own, there's so much going on besides just the drinking. If you continue down the path of sobriety you'll be able to look back and know that this was the greatest gift you could give yourself, to stop drinking. Life is so beautiful sober. Believe it.
I always wondered why people who have been sober for so long still check out these videos. Thanks for providing an answer :)
Thank you, thank you THANK YOU! I need this exact support and inspiration. I'm on day 5 and going at it all alone.
I'm happy to hear that you've made it this far! How do you handle cravings? What has been working for you so far? What made you come to the decision to PRACTICE sobriety?
Great Video .. UR channel is very helpful .. thank U. Subscribed.
Thanks benny I appreciate all the love and support! Feel free to binge watch some other episodes and leave tons of comments, I try my best to respond to every single comment. Stay blessed!
Awesome videos, keep em coming!
I'm proud of this one! I worked 3 months on it :)
@@GettingSoberAgain it shows.. you the Man
Wuddup Jae! Thanks for tagging me to this new video. Man you been busy lol. Lots of great info and insights as always. I hope you and everyone here has a great week
The power of making decisions is often underestimated. Take control of your decisions.
Oh and a good tool for me when stressed and anxious about things, was to stop and think about what I could actually do in that moment to help the situation. Like if it was a Saturday and I couldn't do anything because I couldn't contact anybody at the bank or something I'd remind myself of that and that Monday would be the day to tackle that. Just an example but baby steps are still accomplishments and they feel good at the end of the day! The very best wishes to anybody on this journey!
Bless you for your testimony
71 days-in

I just want to add that there are really hard days\weeks in the beginning and everything is just against you full throttle. It's like you're fighting the evil spirits of alcohol no pun intended. Then like anything you were running from finally slams into you cuz you stopped in place. It's pretty scary. That was the hardest part for me. But if you wait that out it's amazing how perfectly everything falls into place. I remember all these things from when I quit for a while. I had an epic memory and understood complicated things like nothing. I felt better in all the ways that you listed in the 30-day video. And I'm about to watch this one too I
I really appreciate the reminder right now. Thanks for putting this out.
These anxiety tips are exactly what I needed to hear today! Thank you!
Your positivity is exactly what I needed to hear today! Thank YOU!!! 🥰

@@GettingSoberAgain Better. Seriously thinking about quitting for good. I've been moderating over the last months. Your videos are so helpful.
