I have asked my wife not to tell others that I am sober. I asked her to tell others that I have quit drinking. Period. It just makes me feel what I want. To he disassociated feom the whole thing. Semantics, to be sure, but the difference between the two in my mind has a more positive and empowered effect. To say sober makes me feel more afflicted than I am or should he. Telling people that I quit puts the control back to me. And it branches out. I don't want to count days that I'm sober. To me it implies the possibility of failure. I definitely struggle with cravings and triggers, but to have quit puts it in the light of where I want to be. 🐱
One year, five months and twelve days Sober.
Thanks for this man. I'm on day one at the minute, it's 9 in the evening....one more hour until the off-license closes (You cannot purchase alcohol after 10pm here in Ireland...thank god, I used to hate this law, tonight it's a god send). I'm a new subscriber to your channel and I plan on watching every one of your videos and take in your advice. I've struggled with addiction since my early teens and it evolved into a heroin/crack addiction for a little over 11 years. When I got sober from hard drugs I thought I could have a few beers every now and again, unfortunately as many addicts find, it's all or nothing and I started drinking every day and the amount I needed to black out was steadily increasing. I have just about been functioning with the drink, after my last sentence I stayed clean, got in touch and built an amazing bond with my daughter who I met when she was 5, enrolled in my dream course in college, got a side hustle for a little bit of extra cash and started pursuing my passions. Bit by bit I started slacking because of the drink but still maintained my life. Because I was waking up in bits I started using gear again, just a slip once a week I told myself but I know it doesn't work like that so I'm making a stand and giving myself the life I deserve and the father my little girl needs. Thank you so much for this message
I’m 52 days in. Your videos inspire me. I am going away with my wife for 4 days to Spain on Sunday. My first sober holiday. I am feeling good about this.. Thankyou for your support.
I've been sober 1yr, I do not miss the shits & shakes, in the bed unable to move, coughing & throwing up, wicked hangovers,all for what? A goofy drunk feeling?? No way, no more. Im clean and strong the way God intended me. I go to the gym and eat right, I feel like a Greek God. Alcohol can go to hell
Coming up on 6 Months sober from Alcohol. Cravings are starting to act up again out of nowhere. Hoping to fight through it.
It`s so true.... you start to believe in your capability to solve your problems and deal with all sorts of situations in your life after you`ve stopped at least for 8 days
The key to me stopping for good was knowing if I had another drink I would start again. Several times I'd stopped for 3 or 4 months in the hope I could moderate. I was just kidding myself. It's good I can't moderate. I'm finished with alcohol. Some great points in this video. Especially the stuff about self efficacy.
Did this, went vegan and felt amazing, started to help others by spreading the vegan message. Stopping alcohol is just the first rung of the ladder - keep climbing
I stopped drinking alcohol for 6 months once just to prove to myself that I could do it. I allowed myself to start back with the intentions of drinking moderately only on weekends. Big mistake! I started drinking more than before! Still 3 or 4 days out of the week I don't drink alcohol because I don't want it every day. Seriously thinking of quitting completely because I believe it would lead to a positive more productive life.
Its amazing. You are above all of the addicts. You are king. You are much much stronger than anybody else. You have balls like most dont. Now I do focus only on one thing - what will I do with the gift of my left life. 3 years and never ever looked back. For me it was like I swiched off the light in one ugly room. No way I want to go back. That room stays shut and now I almost forgot about its existence. Thank you Kevin.
So right. Association is huge. I’m now moving from sober to normal 👍
I wish I could step into your shoes man , churs for the video . My Mum said to me one day it's not what you say that matters it's your actions that count and she is 100 percent correct
My "social life" (such as it was) is basically what keeps me drinking. Yes...I crave at home sometimes and do give in sometimes...but there are certain people who I know for a fact that I have to cut ties with. ..
Very helpful. About six weeks sober atm. Love the walking terrain/dogs.
Great video, where you been man,
Kevin your channel is one of my favorites for encouraging sobriety, thank you! As a hiker and back country skier I appreciate the mountain scenery and hiking in your videos, which speaks of accomplishment and natural highs.
You can say A LOT with a few words! Thank you for being you!
I listen to a lot of people on this subject...but you are BY FAR the best Kev...it's real, honest and always just what I need to hear to try again...xx
I've decided to regard alcohol in the same way to smoking. You don't stop smoking for 6 months,feel better then start again! That's daft. I don't regard myself as an ex-smoker. I'm just me! I've stopped before,felt better, forgot why I stopped and started again. Ultimately I fell into the same pattern and found myself feeling the need to stop all over again. This time.... feels..... different. I really think I'm ready to move on and in doing so I feel I've started to take control over my life( in as much as anyone really can) I highly recommend stopping on your birthday! It gives you a target as well as a challenge. Can you make to your next birthday without a drink? I'm 48 and for the first time in a long time I'm actually looking forward to the future. Because it's a future in which I'll be a better man. Good luck to all of us on this journey.
