I'm 7 days sober today. It might not sound like much but from someone that drank every day for the last 10 years it's huge. It's a battle every day but it's a battle I'll fight. Edit: Find God and find yourself. There's hope. Quit putting it off until tomorrow. Start today and stay strong. The support on this post is unreal. If I can anybody can. Much love ❤️
Every day, every hour, every MINUTE is HUGE! I'm going on 5 years sober after a life of hell. Don't cut yourself short. Be proud of yourself, because I am proud of you and I know everyone that cares about you is too. Keep it up 💜
I'm at 11 months. It took years to get here, started with days at a time, weeks at a time, then months at a time. Hopefully others don't have to do it that way but I think the biggest part is keep trying and don't give up no matter what.
Schick Schadle Hospital gave me my life back, my daughter her father and my wife her husband. The medical treatment is real and very effective IF YOU REALLY WANT IT TO. No magic bullets, but a huge hand up to make lifelong changes. 14 yrs sober
Congratulations the struggle is real I'm still drinking trying to quit but this whole song feels like it's me it crazy keep your sobriety going it helps me know that it's possible
I’m 8 years sober August 3rd and everyday I struggle to not pick that bottle up when I get depressed and hearing this song put it to words on how I was but I’d rather be sober and fight than to give up and struggle! Thanx Dax ❤
Dax, I heard your song in my daughter’s car and said “what are you listening to?” She said, mom it’s a good song with a good message and he’s a Christian. So I went home and looked you up and watched your videos. I could feel your heart and your pain through your music. As a pastor sometimes we preach over issues instead of dealing with the real hurts that people are dealing with and we don’t help people find solutions. We know the answer is Jesus, but what do we do when people say “I tried God and he didn’t really work for me.” Sometimes at that point we don’t stay in the fight with the individuals and we leave them to fight alone, not cool when we supposedly have the answers, right? Listening to you this morning was a confirmation that I need to minister to people at a deeper level because people are hurting at a deeper level than what we are dealing with. Please know that I am praying for you and praying that every hurt is healed and every broken place is mended and that you can soon exhale the constant pressure and breathe peace that passes all understanding…. Love and blessings upon you.❤️
I need to talk to you... I am that christian that's tried to hold onto God in the midst of the struggle but ultimately gave up and I untimely gave up. Idk felt like maybe God had me read your comment for a reason.
This song also for young people who’s in struggle with depression/ bad relationships regret with the wrong decisions there make after listen to this song I started to think in my age right now to start think positive stop wasted time with smoke or alcohol and get yourself to face anything with a positive way I started went to the gym and see the doctor to cope with my mental healt .
Dax. You're ON POINT. Most jails (here) allow us to share our experience in person, one on one & small groups. They'll listen. Anyone (almost) can do this.
Got sober back in January because of you and some other artists, you made me realise there's better ways to cope. Here I am 3 months later and I couldn't thank you enough for your music. You saved my life Dax
@@kevinofm thank you man, I won't ever give up. I'm slowly starting my own music career, mainly as a way for me to come to terms with myself and my past but also as a way to show people a bit more of a darker side to how life can be. Lucifer was a name bestowed upon me due to what I have been through, just like the angel of the same name, I had a great fall from my highest point and now I must make my empire from the ashes. It's thanks to people like Dax that I have the courage and motivation to try and do this
I'm a respiratory therapist in a covid ICU. I was 20 months sober before everything hit. I fell back into this bullshit because of PTSD. I chose this morning 04/12/22 to pour everything down the drain because I found this song and I didn't feel so alone. ❤️ here's to bigger and better times we all deserve ❤️ *Edit* as of today 4/20/22 I am 1 week sober. Thank you all for the kind words and positivity **edit** today is July 25th, and I am indeed still sober. If I can do it, so can you. One day at a time. Reach out, get help, you're never alone ❤️
Nope you are not alone. Not even close. And thank you for the brave work you do within the ICU...you are a hero. I thought that of medical workers before the COVID stuff. You truly are a hero. And this retired veteran is praying for you as a hero to stay whole. But please take time regularly to take care of yourself first. Much respect. Take care.
This song is helping me more than anyone could understand unless they been in my shoes. Praise you Dax !!!!! Please continue fighting for us we need you and we are here fir you as well!!!!!!....
In 2018 I lost my son! I was lost mentally and emotionally. The pain was implanted so deep the only relief I could get was drowning myself in Alcohol. Everyday for 6 months straight I drunk an entire bottle of vodka to try to drown out the pain. That is, until one day I hear my son speak to me telling me he's ok and to not be sad. Every since I've stopped drinking and started celebrating his memories and good moments we shared. I will see you again one day my son! Thank you Dax for this incredible song. It will surely help a lot of people!
My god this made my heart explode with the love you feel for your son. You were a wonderful parent, I'm sure, and and he loves you to the moon and back! I just lost my mom so seeing stuff like this is so gut-wrenching, but in the long run I'm happy I read it. Stay well, friend.
Keep doing the deal, my lady just took 3yrs today from being homeless, nothing, I'm getting 9months on Sunday in and out of AA just a unmanageable of life. Having hard times still but I'm doing it sober and the people in the meetings there with me to guide. It does it get easier and easier and better. Keep it
Just wanted to say congratulations.!!❤ &Also to let you know that you will overcome this, bcuz you're amazing.!! &For somebody that has also been thru rehab, it deff takes alot of will power just by staying committed to the program you're working on& living a sober life. Keep working on building a stronger version of yourself.!! Much love. 🙏🤘😘
2 years and 6 months clean and sober. Much respect to you Dax. Anyone who is still struggling with this please please !!!!!!!! Reach Out to someone. There’s help.
10 days sober today. I’m in AA and working to stay sober. My wife left with the kids 7 days ago due to the last day I drank. I’ve got to get better for them and be the man, husband & father that they deserve. This song hits home on so many levels. Thank you for putting this out there. Update: 63 days sober…One day at a time.
JR, I hope your journey leads to good health and a reunion with your family if that's even in the cards. Congrats on your decision to get help and sobriety. It will be worth it, you're worth it. Take care.
If you're suffering or recovering from mental health issues and/or addiction. I'm so proud of you for fighting each day to keep going. Many blessings to you all!!
Thank You, having bipolar is extremely hard. This hits spot on. It's so hard, it is sad that I allowed someone to beat me down until I felt worthless and into such a deep depression I couldn't control my emotions, they are a bit under control now. I was broken by the man that was supposed to love me and devastated when the past 7-8 years I have lost family member after family member. My mother died twice, just before her birthday. I said goodbye on my papas birthday, my papa died just before Christmas, 8 months after my grandma passed. We buried them day after my birthday. Last year I lost my aunt and this year I lost my uncle. I have been broken.
Dax and you Zoe thank you for the help. I went for help now I'm 2 days sober today. Thank you two so much I cant even tell you... I have kids and I want to be whit them thank you again
This song is for every kind of addiction wether it be alcohol or drugs. Addiction is addiction. My husband and I have been sober from Meth for 7 years. It was hard but completely worth every struggle. Our kids didn’t deserve to be brought up with parents that were active in addiction so when we found out we were pregnant we never looked back. You have to have a reason to get sober and our kids were our reason. You got this and don’t let anyone set you back from your future. Love your music Dax!!!!
Hi! Great post and thanks for blazing a path out of the darkness. Only a bit over 3 months for me and never felt better. Stay undefeated Mr. & Mrs., keep shining your light back into the darkness. Stay blessed. Take care.
The fact this man takes the time to appreciate his fans and leave them a heart shows so much! Thank you for everything you do Dax! Forever one of the best!
@@Thatsdax hey dax I doubt youll see this but im also a independent artist struggling with addiction and trying to overcome it all through my music, I promise you I got a story that just needs to be heard give me a chance fam🤞🏼
Heard this last night and I swear, it’s been on repeat ever since. Hits 100% as to why I started abusing alcohol. Thank you for this, helps to know I’m not alone.
You are never alone. As lonely as this fucking disease feels, you are not alone, ever. If you need a sponsor or something let me know, I'd be glad to help.
Coming back from Iraq I had PTSD and bought a motorcycle and drank. I learned that the alcohol brought back memories I wish I could forget. I prayed and stopped the alcohol. PTSD stopped and have not had alcohol since 2007.
This guy might be the most underrated artist that’s lived. Not a mainstream sellout, no big record deal. The guy is genuinely just making music trying to help people. God bless you Dax.
This song reminds me of why I NEED to get sober. I feel no one understands my pains and why I drink, but that's no excuse. Thank you for this song brother.
If relatability is one of your biggest issues, I would recommend finding a good AA group(one you like). You will be amazed how many people in certain places like AA groups or rehab can relate with you without you needing to really tell them anything about you. You also help giving others a purpose while in AA. In the end it is about having others that get you, as opposed to maximizing or minimizing (comparing) pain/experiences. Society often compares and minimizes the pain/experiences of others, which most often leads to situations like yours where people see what happens when they share their experiences.
I understand baby just stay focused and remember your not alone! I had to have help but I didn't want to be judged and I drink and pray I promise God is listening and Will Deliver You. I love you don't know you but you are loved
I started crying when I listened to this full song! Im 39yrs old and Ive been struggling with addiction for 20yrs! In and out of jail, toxic relationships, homeless, I could go on and on! I now have a 2 story house in the country and I'm a manager at a restaurant! So needless to say this song hits home! Thank you, Thank you for this song! You have a supporter for life!
I will be 9 years sober November 1. I did it for my son, the reason I kept going here earthside when I felt my wings were ready. This song still gave me chills and made me cry. I've been listening to it on repeat. "Sobriety is never owned - it's rented. And rent is due every day." "Everybody has a sobriety date ; some are carved into a tombstone, and that's as real as it gets." For those of you struggling, KEEP ON KEEPING ON. A rowdy Irish Mama in Boston is proud of you. 💚🍀💚🍀
4 years clean from heroin and alcohol now. The sad part is, it was the time in my life that I was happiest, when I was abusing drugs and drinking. That's probably because I spent 60% of my life as an addict, so it's really all I've ever known. I'm only 29 but have been a user of dope and alcohol since I was 14. The craving is always there, but I do my best to resist it. Married now, so I not only have to fight for myself, but for my wife, who stuck with me through it all and helped me get to where I'm at today. Sometimes I think life is harder being sober, because I have to actually worry and care about things, but that's the way it's supposed to be, right? Just gotta keep pushing, one day at a time, I guess. Thank you Dax for doing what you do. You and Tom MacDonald write songs that actually help people. I have mad respect for you guys and I appreciate every lyric you guys put out. Much love from Kentucky!
Good luck my brother..We all suffer..Especially when we are so in touch with the universe and know how things work..The answer is to drink n lets escape..Im there too my man..Im from KY too, Louisville..
Keep your head up! I remember the day I checked myself into rehab I was feeling horrible because I ran out of pills. I was on my way to purchase $1,500 worth of pills, thought of my daughter, and Google the nearest rehab. I was crying so much and didn't understand y. I was emotionless for 20 years on drugs and alcohol. Then as a sober person all my emotions kicked in and caused me anxiety and depression. You are lucky you have support. I myself lucky also with a woman that seen me at my worst and stuck with me. We are both very blessed. My advice to you if you need any at all, is to find a healthy addiction to feed the addictive personality. Mine turned out to be health and fitness. 8 years ago I weighed 180lbs at 6'4" was hella skinny. I now way 250lbs and in best shape of my life. When I get angry I go to the gym, when I feel lost, or if place, confused, sad, etc... I go to the gym. I told myself every time I have a negative/ depressing thought I will go to the gym and turn it into something positive. Best of luck
Congrats brother on the soberness and drug free I know how u feel been clean 2 years now I have 5 children been locked up before was on the streets been in the gang life got me nowhere, but heartache lost my dad in 2014 with alcohol got me all twisted up almost lost my wife and children, but I found my faith in God, and he changed me keep the faith and stay positive as well
As a guy who went from being a depressed alcoholic to recently almost never drinking… this song was an amazing reminder from where I was to where I am now. To anyone who feels this song into depths unknown… you got this ❤️
GOD bless you on your journey, you've accomplished empowering your willpower to Sever ties with the devil and the demons. Angelical spirits constantly surround you and protect you more than ever. You've been saved by the grace of GOD and abundantly will receive blessings that will overwhelm you with excitement and joy. Your spirit has been restored with increased energy as a lightworker to enlighten everyone around you❤💯
Just listened to Lonely Dirt Road & Dear Alcohol. My heart is crying. My Dad passed in 2007. He was a drinker, often times looked lonely & lost. Your songs speak so much truth. I wish my dad could have spoke from his heart. I'm positive I would have heard the lyrics of your songs. Dad was such a talented person in so many ways. I miss him every single day.
"I got wasted cause I didn't want to deal with myself tonight", man those lyrics are literally scripture for us alcoholics. Drinking to quiet your own mind because it's tormenting you 24/7 and you don't want to deal with all that bullshit. It's a quick and easy fix to your life problems for the time being. Love from Ireland Dax
I’m 16 I have drunk 2 times in my life it feels too good plus my moms a alcoholic so I def get this song 100% alcohol is too good and I had my second drink today I’m currently feeling amazing this is the most dangerously feel good substance on the planet fr besides opiates it’s insane
@@wavxy7454 kid please save yourself before it becomes something you don't want it to. Truly, one day it no longer becomes fun and turns to something you tell yourself you need to be normal.
@@justtime6736 yes, that’s not man made… there are some things that can be considered of God and they are good and man made But mostly Gods work is not man made… when we talk about everything…
This song echoes my decades of alcoholism! I've been trying to get sober for 19 years and today, January 10, 2024, I have 62 days🩷 I didn't want to live anymore so it was either suicide or my final attempt to get sober. I chose life. I'm finally dealing with my pain and what led me to and kept me drinking. It hasn't been easy but I know it will get better. I couldn't have done this without God and vulnerability. If any of you are struggling, know that it doesn't matter how many times you have tried to get and stay sober .....keep trying🌼You matter and are valuable 💕
I’m 18 days sober!!!!!! Thank you for this ❤️ Edit to add: I’m officially THIRTY ONE DAYS SOBER!!!! 31 days sober!!!!! I can’t believe I’ve come this far. I just turned 27 and I’ve been like this since I’ve been 16. Just know sober or not, sobriety is possible. It is possible. if I can do this you can do this, whether it’s Alcahol, drug addiction, smoking, you’ve got this. I believe in you like I believe in myself.
One of my friends died this morning of an overdose, we were in rehab together and listened to this song everyday, it helped more than I can put into words and now his memory will live on in this song. Thank you Dax!
You don't know how real this is until you have wrote that "goodbye" letter yourself. 🙏 Pulling at the heartstrings with this one DAX! Without a drink since 11/14/2019! One day at a time!
Amen! I had to write that goodbye letter twice... alcohol and pills. This song is perfect! It's so awesome to see someone in this genre use the art for good! This song is great enough to touch a lot of people.
@@christhomas855 It's a never ending war, but it gets easier as time goes by. I don't miss anything about it, but fear I'll go back, and that's after 8 years. One day at a time is real, A.A saved my life. You're Not alone, we're there for you, and we're everywhere. Don't give up. I wish you all the best.
I just celebrated 4 years clean from drugs I was in active addiction for 12 years this song really hits home I just wanna say congrats on the clean time it only gets better keep working hard and don't be afraid to ask for help life gets hard sometimes but we get back up and keep pushing
Testify. Congrats on your sobriety. Keep on leading the way, sharing your victory, falls and encouragement. We are following your lead. May your day be the best yet. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
That’s great I need help myself I was shot 10 times in my back. And for the last 6 years I’ve been on prescription pain pills. Then the doctors terminated me from going back to the pain clinic because I have weed in my system weed is legal in Michigan so when they stop giving me the prescription pills then that led to other drugs. I wish I had the money to go to a nice rehab center to my life back together. If anyone knows any advice or where I can find help please let me know
👏👏👏 You got my support. Tears of joy in my eyes. You're not alone. We are with you. Eat right, drink smoothies and clean fresh water and kick some ass in the gym. You got this, love ya family.
You got this. You're stronger than you think. How do I know this about you? Because you realize there's a problem that needs fixing and that you have to fix it. Go get them tiger. YOU got this. God bless you.
You are not alone brother. It was 7 years straight of every day drinking until I broke down and went to detox 3 weeks ago. I made a week sober and have been fighting this relaps since. This song broke me down, especially the last verse. Keep fighting bro, don't be afraid to get help. Most people in our situation need guidance and support with this. I'm praying for all of us, stay strong.
It is good that you are sober. I am not, but it's good that you are. In fact, my life revolves around numbing myself every weekend. But, unlike most who have a problem with it, I am okay with it. I am also 60 and I have had a hard life. It's hard to fly very close to success and still fail. At 60, I am thinking that maybe I have 15 years left, tops. So, I am going to take those last 15 years and I am going to be as reckless as I can be. I am going to enjoy in these moments, and do the things I could not obtain when I was younger.
@@danminutsich7509im 19 amd i just found this song, realised i had a problem about 5 months ago, gonna keep fighting through cause i have a picture of what i want my future children to see me as, idk you, or if you have kids or grandkids, and my words might not help you at all, but if you want to then i believe you can fight it
@@danminutsich7509 same here. Been struggling for about 3 years now but every sober story gives me hope even if I take none for myself. I’m only 37 and can’t see myself living to 60.
@@danminutsich7509It's easy to give up when you aren't successful it's the easy way out. I understand that you had a hard life and I don't know what you went through but your gonna come all this way to put into being reckless. Why not put it into something deeper like helping out your community and trying to support others for the ways you probably weren't. Be the change to someone that you didnt have! Don't continue the chain, break it! You can do it man don't give up just because it's hard 💯
@Dave DDM I understand you have your views and I respect that, but as an alcoholic in a 12 step program, God as I understand him is the most the most important thing in my life today. We are beyond human aid! ❤️ we do a ton of work... but it's all to become closer to a God AS WE UNDERSTOOD HIM. :)
Hey dax love this shit. I've been an alcoholic all my life I'm 38. Started listening to you and MacDonald about a year ago. I think y'all's message is getting through I'm 8 months sober now and not looking back. Thank you brother keep up the awesome work. Thank you
I found DAX through Tom Macdonald and sooo happy I did! Both give me positive thoughts when I feel the world around us had become so negative and infuriating!
my mom just heard ur song last night and shes struggled with alcohol addiction since i was a little kid and now she called a rehab center today to get better. thank u sm dax❤️❤️
That's great news! 6 months sober here and rooting for your Mom! I don't have a Mom so give her a big hug from me and tell her I will be praying to God for her.
this is the first song i ever listened to by dax, and it brought me to tears, it hit me right in the soul, this has been my life for the last decade at least and im struggling to stop, this song really got to me, just gotta keep pushing to get better
I'll be the real one. Alcohol is a drug that our government has confided in. They don't care about alcoholism because they profit from it. We are the clowns in our society, so no one pays attention. This is about you and how you want to live life. No one cares about you. You have to do it for yourself. Sometimes, it sucks to suck. Recovering alcoholic here. I still don't understand why our world is too busy to take care of the inhabitants.
Dax if this reaches you, just know that this song was deep and it hit so many dark places that people don’t don’t discuss. This is the anthem for so many people like myself. You really spoke the truth and told many of our stories thru your music. Thanks brother. God bless you.
3 1/2 months sober. It's been a struggle. I've never felt more alone and broken. Dax your music brother has helped me pick myself up and want to wake up in the mornings and keep on pushing forward. Thank you for bringing these subjects into the light. Your words are an inspiration for everyone struggling and looking for a reason to keep living. Thank you for everything you do.
Crazy how I come across relatable music so much. I’m 6 weeks sober actually. And everyday isn’t easy but I’m fighting for it. I feel this song In my soul. Stay strong guys we can do it!
“I’m taking care of these people but no one takes care of me. I wanna talk to somebody, but I feel like no one relates” that’s deeepp and I’m sure a lot of people relate, I know I do at times. This is a much needed track for the world to hear! Keep pushing the positivity Dax ✊🏽🙏🏽
Those words hit me hard because my job is take care of ppl but the real fact is that I have no one who really cares about me and believe it takes a lot to hold strong. We just got keep pushing each day regardless. Bless up
I agree dear alcohol damn great song that's going to help of young viewers to help with there problems keep up the great work dax love your music listen to it everyday you da best 👌
@@nicolettechanner8182 my mom works with people with special needs and my sister and gf both work in the hospital so I totally understand your comment! One of the reasons I try to message/call them often just to see how they’re doing. Bc they take care of people all day long. Last thing I’d want is for them to think no one is there for them.
@@23muddigger thanks alot because it really does get lonely at times and I don't even have the family support system nor true close fiends .... SMH my life is a mess so let me not even start. Thanks for the comment.
When I heard the line, "I'm taking care of the people, but no takes care of me", I felt chills. I'm a new dad and my little man has brought a new light for me in the darkness of drinking. One day at a time everything will be ok
Tommy, Congrats on being a new Dad. I'm a Dad and my kids rarely talk to me because of that darkness of Alcohol. Praying you don't waste his or your time the way I did. Take care and enjoy every moment, even the tough times in parenting.
I work at a detox and recovery facility and I've previously shared your song "Eternity" with them with great effect. I'll be sharing this one as well. Keep sharing your stories Dax!
I think that you and what you do is remarkable, especially in a detox and recovery place. You’re showing them that they are not alone in their battles and using music can be quite therapeutic in recovery!
36 y/o and I was in deep. Finally felt like I'd drank enough for an entire lifetime and decided to leave it behind in 2013. Nearly 9 years later (went over 3 years straight without a single drink) and I've had only several (destination all inclusive wedding, and two other local weddings) of slip ups, but NEVER let it swallow me whole or bring me back. It's amazing how quickly life changes when you put in that initial 30 days to feel better. Congrats to you on 8 months!! Major accomplishment! Keep it up.
Nowadays they only care about you when youre gone..😞 Im just tryna be heard all it takes is one person to change my life forever help me get heard I promise you wont be disappointed🔥
As a recovered alcoholic who is almost 3 years sober, I REALLY relate to this song. On my weaker days when I was drinking, this was exactly how I felt. Thank you for putting this out there even though it's a touch of your personal side.
This part: "I’m taking care of these people but no one takes care of me I want to talk to somebody but I feel no one relates". That's me, and I'm burnt out. Keep em coming Dax
I'm in therapy right now to stop my addiction. Some days I find myself feeling like giving up, but I keep on fighting. Thanks for this song Dax. I honestly never would have thought that music could ever help me like yours can.
I’m 28 months sober yesterday and music is huge deal for me ! I had to stop listening to a lot of my rock/metal cause it was depressing and not positive! Hang in there you got this
No matter what you use to numb your pain, everybody can relate to this song. I am ashamed to say I just found him as an artist. You are now on the top of my playlist. Simply amazing amount of talent and depth in your writing.
Today I’ve been 34 days this is the longest I’ve been sober in 8 years, and this song hits hard. Everything I was going through is put all into this song. Such a great song.
Keep going man, I recently slipped around that time. It's easy to get complacent once your body no longer hurts, stay strong and when the drink calls, don't pick up.
I need you to know that i love you and i am so glad you are fighting that thought enough to put it in writing! You are amazing and wonderful bc God formed you in your mother's womb and He knows every single detail and still loves you enough to let His only Son take the blame for everything you (and I, and everyone else) ever did wrong. Did you know He holds all our tears in a bottle? Can you imagine how many blessings He has for you? One for each tear, my brother! I know you dont know me, and most of the time I'm a pain in the butt, but I love you, brave soldier! Trust that someone in Georgia, USA loves you and thanks you for your sacrifice!
I almost sped up the process too. Ended up on life support and they didn’t expect me to wake up. Check out Eminem’s song Never be Alone. A lot happened after that during my last relapse causing physical scars, trauma, losing 2.5 years to prison, and almost losing my life on purpose. I was mad when I woke up unexpectedly on life support with a tube down my throat to breathe. Now I couldn’t imagine not going though the experiences I have since then. Even prison, when I think about it it was like living im one of those tv shows everyone loves. It gets better, sometimes it doesn’t sty that way, but there is always tomorrow.
@@realfarmer21 Nowadays they only care about you when youre gone..😞 Im just tryna be heard all it takes is one person to change my life forever help me get heard I promise you wont be disappointed🔥
Alcohol is a depressant.and I have several depression so when I drink I sink lower. My brain chemistry goes way off and I crash. Than my depression intensifies. Being sober is great. It's alright to be depressed it shows we are human. Depression is just reality because all it is that we are aware and the world is actually depressing but we are happy and shine bright on the good occasions.
@@j.rivera6402 even just one week is hard when battling alcoholism, drug addiction, etc. Any addiction is hard to conquer. So even just one week is an accomplishment
I’m 47 days sober today and this song and the challenge has brought tears to my eyes. It’s amazing to hear my thoughts and feelings put into words that I could never find!
Hey, CONGRATS on almost 4 months!! You're doing amazing!! I promise it gets easier and you will never regret quitting!! I'm proud of you for already making it this far, I know how absolutely difficult it is!! Do not be afraid to reach out, ask for help and connect with people who will support and encourage you. Watch out for the ones who will hold you back or drag you down. Anyone who doesn't want to lift you up and push you to do better just wants to bring you down to their level so they have someone to suffer with. I wish you the very best, you got this!!
Dax I want you to know that you're music 🎶 is helping me grow. I thanked God for you. I have 110 sober today. I'm picking up the pieces of very broken 💔 thank you for being there for us 🙏
I almost fell into this dark hole of alcoholism but I stopped myself before I did. This song and every other song you release has so much meaning to me and many others. Thank you Dax!
I still cry to this song cuz it stabs my heart so deep. I still can’t shake this hard addiction. But I listen to this song every day to help remind myself I need to fix myself to fix the world around me
Dude anyone can do anything they want. You have or need to want it. No person or song can make you, you have to take that first step and start the change, then use those people or songs as support to never look back

Ik what your going threw man keep your head up
I'm 7 days sober today. It might not sound like much but from someone that drank every day for the last 10 years it's huge. It's a battle every day but it's a battle I'll fight. Edit: Find God and find yourself. There's hope. Quit putting it off until tomorrow. Start today and stay strong. The support on this post is unreal. If I can anybody can. Much love ❤️

Keep going strong bro 💪
Keep fighting!
Every day, every hour, every MINUTE is HUGE! I'm going on 5 years sober after a life of hell. Don't cut yourself short. Be proud of yourself, because I am proud of you and I know everyone that cares about you is too. Keep it up 💜
I'm at 11 months. It took years to get here, started with days at a time, weeks at a time, then months at a time. Hopefully others don't have to do it that way but I think the biggest part is keep trying and don't give up no matter what.
I'm not sober. This song hits so hard. I'm tired of being lost
5 years sober here. It’s not easy to get started, but nothing in life is. God saved me, he can save you too 👍
I'm there....
Schick Schadle Hospital gave me my life back, my daughter her father and my wife her husband. The medical treatment is real and very effective IF YOU REALLY WANT IT TO. No magic bullets, but a huge hand up to make lifelong changes. 14 yrs sober
We all have so much to offer the world. We’re here for a reason. Never forget this
You can do it! ❤
This will help a lot of people. Amazing job Dax!

I’m 8 years sober August 3rd and everyday I struggle to not pick that bottle up when I get depressed and hearing this song put it to words on how I was but I’d rather be sober and fight than to give up and struggle! Thanx Dax ❤

I’m very proud!
The fact that my birthday congratulations 💯
Keep it up bro! One day at a time.
Thank y’all for support it’s a battle but like a tattoo I have says “im Battle Born”

@@laurenl.3735 most definitely!!
Appreciate that man
Its incredible, me too... I was 2 weeks sober already and just today fáciles myself again, I swear Im going to try muy best and this song really helps
Dax, I heard your song in my daughter’s car and said “what are you listening to?” She said, mom it’s a good song with a good message and he’s a Christian. So I went home and looked you up and watched your videos. I could feel your heart and your pain through your music. As a pastor sometimes we preach over issues instead of dealing with the real hurts that people are dealing with and we don’t help people find solutions. We know the answer is Jesus, but what do we do when people say “I tried God and he didn’t really work for me.” Sometimes at that point we don’t stay in the fight with the individuals and we leave them to fight alone, not cool when we supposedly have the answers, right? Listening to you this morning was a confirmation that I need to minister to people at a deeper level because people are hurting at a deeper level than what we are dealing with. Please know that I am praying for you and praying that every hurt is healed and every broken place is mended and that you can soon exhale the constant pressure and breathe peace that passes all understanding…. Love and blessings upon you.❤️
This is so wholesome and you seem like such a genuine pastor.
Perfect one 🥰❤️
Lisa I'm from Kenya and I hope my desire of meeting you will be fulfilled.
Add me to your prayer list please.
I need to talk to you... I am that christian that's tried to hold onto God in the midst of the struggle but ultimately gave up and I untimely gave up. Idk felt like maybe God had me read your comment for a reason.
I'm 75 years old my daughter gave me this good news. This is my Blessing to share. Thank God for you Dax.
This is deep and something that almost everyone can relate to on some level.. thank you for sharing something so personal ♡

I dont relate at all. I dont drink alcohol. Shit done even taste good.
@@billyclob637 It's not just about the alcohol. If you actually pay attention to the song you would realize it ain't just alcohol he's battling
Does drinks with sex relates at one moment girl ?
I’ll be listening to this song forever I can tell
The accuracy of this song to my life is on another level. Excellent song
yep
its my favourite song of dax till now
It sends a positive message
agreed
Same for me, I might actually give it one more try! Though it is so scary, I have been pushing so so so much away, how can I face that all at once
This is exactly what I thought
I feel like DAX wrote this song to me without knowing me
This song hits on a different level, especially as a father. Dax you've changed the game with this one my guy.
This song also for young people who’s in struggle with depression/ bad relationships regret with the wrong decisions there make after listen to this song I started to think in my age right now to start think positive stop wasted time with smoke or alcohol and get yourself to face anything with a positive way I started went to the gym and see the doctor to cope with my mental healt .
Wow nice nice
Dax. You're ON POINT. Most jails (here) allow us to share our experience in person, one on one & small groups. They'll listen. Anyone (almost) can do this.
Got sober back in January because of you and some other artists, you made me realise there's better ways to cope. Here I am 3 months later and I couldn't thank you enough for your music. You saved my life Dax
Congratulations on your sobriety. 🎊
Congrats on that 3 mons!! 🥰🥳💯
Keep going strong. Don't give up.
Don't give up
Man, u'r not a lucifer, think about this
@@kevinofm thank you man, I won't ever give up. I'm slowly starting my own music career, mainly as a way for me to come to terms with myself and my past but also as a way to show people a bit more of a darker side to how life can be. Lucifer was a name bestowed upon me due to what I have been through, just like the angel of the same name, I had a great fall from my highest point and now I must make my empire from the ashes. It's thanks to people like Dax that I have the courage and motivation to try and do this
I'm a respiratory therapist in a covid ICU. I was 20 months sober before everything hit. I fell back into this bullshit because of PTSD. I chose this morning 04/12/22 to pour everything down the drain because I found this song and I didn't feel so alone. ❤️ here's to bigger and better times we all deserve ❤️
*Edit* as of today 4/20/22 I am 1 week sober. Thank you all for the kind words and positivity
**edit** today is July 25th, and I am indeed still sober. If I can do it, so can you. One day at a time. Reach out, get help, you're never alone ❤️
Nope you are not alone. Not even close. And thank you for the brave work you do within the ICU...you are a hero. I thought that of medical workers before the COVID stuff. You truly are a hero. And this retired veteran is praying for you as a hero to stay whole. But please take time regularly to take care of yourself first. Much respect. Take care.
God bless you 🙏🌺🌹🥰
You’ll back to it. One can’t just quit. Remember these words 🙏🏼 good luck
You got this. Smile. You're amazing.
Just hold on and look at it as another opportunity to get it right!
This is sooooo fire

Yes pass that on
In 2018 I lost my son! I was lost mentally and emotionally. The pain was implanted so deep the only relief I could get was drowning myself in Alcohol. Everyday for 6 months straight I drunk an entire bottle of vodka to try to drown out the pain. That is, until one day I hear my son speak to me telling me he's ok and to not be sad. Every since I've stopped drinking and started celebrating his memories and good moments we shared. I will see you again one day my son! Thank you Dax for this incredible song. It will surely help a lot of people!
My god this made my heart explode with the love you feel for your son. You were a wonderful parent, I'm sure, and and he loves you to the moon and back! I just lost my mom so seeing stuff like this is so gut-wrenching, but in the long run I'm happy I read it. Stay well, friend.

Keep doing the deal, my lady just took 3yrs today from being homeless, nothing, I'm getting 9months on Sunday in and out of AA just a unmanageable of life. Having hard times still but I'm doing it sober and the people in the meetings there with me to guide. It does it get easier and easier and better. Keep it

Stay strong, you matter🫡
Keep God first and keep going strong
Just wanted to say congratulations.!!❤ &Also to let you know that you will overcome this, bcuz you're amazing.!! &For somebody that has also been thru rehab, it deff takes alot of will power just by staying committed to the program you're working on& living a sober life.

10 days sober today. I’m in AA and working to stay sober. My wife left with the kids 7 days ago due to the last day I drank. I’ve got to get better for them and be the man, husband & father that they deserve. This song hits home on so many levels. Thank you for putting this out there.
Update: 63 days sober…One day at a time.
JR, I hope your journey leads to good health and a reunion with your family if that's even in the cards. Congrats on your decision to get help and sobriety. It will be worth it, you're worth it. Take care.

Much Love and Respect 🙏 God Bless you my friend and Proud of you
If you're suffering or recovering from mental health issues and/or addiction. I'm so proud of you for fighting each day to keep going. Many blessings to you all!!
Thank you. Most addicts don't want help or don't know that they need it. Your positivity is greatly appreciated
Thank You, having bipolar is extremely hard. This hits spot on. It's so hard, it is sad that I allowed someone to beat me down until I felt worthless and into such a deep depression I couldn't control my emotions, they are a bit under control now. I was broken by the man that was supposed to love me and devastated when the past 7-8 years I have lost family member after family member. My mother died twice, just before her birthday. I said goodbye on my papas birthday, my papa died just before Christmas, 8 months after my grandma passed. We buried them day after my birthday. Last year I lost my aunt and this year I lost my uncle. I have been broken.
It’s anxiety with me. Still haven’t got over it but I do feel like I’m getting better
Dax and you Zoe thank you for the help. I went for help now I'm 2 days sober today. Thank you two so much I cant even tell you... I have kids and I want to be whit them thank you again
💔🤞🏻🙏
Shoutout to all my fellow recovering alcoholics ❤ you got this
😢 Thanks 💯 ❤
This song is for every kind of addiction wether it be alcohol or drugs. Addiction is addiction. My husband and I have been sober from Meth for 7 years. It was hard but completely worth every struggle. Our kids didn’t deserve to be brought up with parents that were active in addiction so when we found out we were pregnant we never looked back. You have to have a reason to get sober and our kids were our reason. You got this and don’t let anyone set you back from your future. Love your music Dax!!!!
Hi! Great post and thanks for blazing a path out of the darkness. Only a bit over 3 months for me and never felt better. Stay undefeated Mr. & Mrs., keep shining your light back into the darkness. Stay blessed. Take care.
You 2 give me more hope and motivation!! May 24th I’ll have 4 years sober (DOC meth) God willing!
Well said!!
God bless Meredith 🙏

I don't drink and not an alcoholic but even still this song brings tears to my eyes! Stay strong!
Coming back from Iraq I had PTSD and bought a motorcycle and drank. I learned that the alcohol brought back memories I wish I could forget. I prayed and stopped the alcohol. PTSD stopped and have not had alcohol since 2007.
This guy might be the most underrated artist that’s lived. Not a mainstream sellout, no big record deal. The guy is genuinely just making music trying to help people. God bless you Dax.
other than crinchii yea fs

Dax is incredibly underrated. This one track alone is so powerful.
This song is crap 😂
@@ChildofYAH
Average lil pump fan
This song reminds me of why I NEED to get sober. I feel no one understands my pains and why I drink, but that's no excuse. Thank you for this song brother.
If relatability is one of your biggest issues, I would recommend finding a good AA group(one you like). You will be amazed how many people in certain places like AA groups or rehab can relate with you without you needing to really tell them anything about you. You also help giving others a purpose while in AA.
In the end it is about having others that get you, as opposed to maximizing or minimizing (comparing) pain/experiences. Society often compares and minimizes the pain/experiences of others, which most often leads to situations like yours where people see what happens when they share their experiences.
felt that havnt been sober for 5 years ive been floating for legit years straight wake up and blitz
I understand baby just stay focused and remember your not alone! I had to have help but I didn't want to be judged and I drink and pray I promise God is listening and Will Deliver You. I love you don't know you but you are loved
More people understand that you may think.
Amen
I started crying when I listened to this full song! Im 39yrs old and Ive been struggling with addiction for 20yrs! In and out of jail, toxic relationships, homeless, I could go on and on! I now have a 2 story house in the country and I'm a manager at a restaurant! So needless to say this song hits home! Thank you, Thank you for this song! You have a supporter for life!
Keep fighting fam!! Your loved
We do recover. Prayers for continued success
Congrats on everything! You're a beast, brother. Keep it up♡
You fought and you won, brother. Keep fighting. Proud of you.
Never give up give it to God. And most of all be around positive people and be a leader. ❤️🙏❤️
I will be 9 years sober November 1. I did it for my son, the reason I kept going here earthside when I felt my wings were ready.
This song still gave me chills and made me cry. I've been listening to it on repeat.
"Sobriety is never owned - it's rented. And rent is due every day."
"Everybody has a sobriety date ; some are carved into a tombstone, and that's as real as it gets."
For those of you struggling, KEEP ON KEEPING ON. A rowdy Irish Mama in Boston is proud of you. 💚🍀💚🍀
I felt that
Keep it up, 👍
You are very good singer Dax ❤❤

Your prayers won't help anybody, how about physically going out and helping people ?
Thank you
@@check4v I’ll pray for yu buddy
Been sober 5days after 2yrs of a liter a day. It is hard but definitely doable
Over ten years sober and this still hits different. Keep your heads up everyone. One day at a time! You can do it.
4 years clean from heroin and alcohol now. The sad part is, it was the time in my life that I was happiest, when I was abusing drugs and drinking. That's probably because I spent 60% of my life as an addict, so it's really all I've ever known. I'm only 29 but have been a user of dope and alcohol since I was 14. The craving is always there, but I do my best to resist it. Married now, so I not only have to fight for myself, but for my wife, who stuck with me through it all and helped me get to where I'm at today. Sometimes I think life is harder being sober, because I have to actually worry and care about things, but that's the way it's supposed to be, right? Just gotta keep pushing, one day at a time, I guess. Thank you Dax for doing what you do. You and Tom MacDonald write songs that actually help people. I have mad respect for you guys and I appreciate every lyric you guys put out. Much love from Kentucky!
Good luck my brother..We all suffer..Especially when we are so in touch with the universe and know how things work..The answer is to drink n lets escape..Im there too my man..Im from KY too, Louisville..
Keep your head up! I remember the day I checked myself into rehab I was feeling horrible because I ran out of pills. I was on my way to purchase $1,500 worth of pills, thought of my daughter, and Google the nearest rehab. I was crying so much and didn't understand y. I was emotionless for 20 years on drugs and alcohol. Then as a sober person all my emotions kicked in and caused me anxiety and depression. You are lucky you have support. I myself lucky also with a woman that seen me at my worst and stuck with me. We are both very blessed. My advice to you if you need any at all, is to find a healthy addiction to feed the addictive personality. Mine turned out to be health and fitness. 8 years ago I weighed 180lbs at 6'4" was hella skinny. I now way 250lbs and in best shape of my life. When I get angry I go to the gym, when I feel lost, or if place, confused, sad, etc... I go to the gym. I told myself every time I have a negative/ depressing thought I will go to the gym and turn it into something positive. Best of luck
Congrats brother on the soberness and drug free I know how u feel been clean 2 years now I have 5 children been locked up before was on the streets been in the gang life got me nowhere, but heartache lost my dad in 2014 with alcohol got me all twisted up almost lost my wife and children, but I found my faith in God, and he changed me keep the faith and stay positive as well

Just listened to Lonely Dirt Road & Dear Alcohol. My heart is crying. My Dad passed in 2007. He was a drinker, often times looked lonely & lost. Your songs speak so much truth. I wish my dad could have spoke from his heart. I'm positive I would have heard the lyrics of your songs. Dad was such a talented person in so many ways. I miss him every single day.
"I got wasted cause I didn't want to deal with myself tonight", man those lyrics are literally scripture for us alcoholics. Drinking to quiet your own mind because it's tormenting you 24/7 and you don't want to deal with all that bullshit. It's a quick and easy fix to your life problems for the time being. Love from Ireland Dax

This song echoes my decades of alcoholism! I've been trying to get sober for 19 years and today, January 10, 2024, I have 62 days🩷 I didn't want to live anymore so it was either suicide or my final attempt to get sober. I chose life. I'm finally dealing with my pain and what led me to and kept me drinking. It hasn't been easy but I know it will get better. I couldn't have done this without God and vulnerability. If any of you are struggling, know that it doesn't matter how many times you have tried to get and stay sober .....keep trying🌼You matter and are valuable 💕

Be strong I love you
Stay strong. Don't quit. Keep goin. Just the right things.

I just celebrated 4 years clean from drugs I was in active addiction for 12 years this song really hits home I just wanna say congrats on the clean time it only gets better keep working hard and don't be afraid to ask for help life gets hard sometimes but we get back up and keep pushing
Testify. Congrats on your sobriety. Keep on leading the way, sharing your victory, falls and encouragement. We are following your lead. May your day be the best yet. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
Great job! You are what you believe, i believe in thee!
That’s great I need help myself I was shot 10 times in my back. And for the last 6 years I’ve been on prescription pain pills. Then the doctors terminated me from going back to the pain clinic because I have weed in my system weed is legal in Michigan so when they stop giving me the prescription pills then that led to other drugs. I wish I had the money to go to a nice rehab center to my life back together. If anyone knows any advice or where I can find help please let me know
I'm still, I'm 23 was sober for 5years with my ex vanishing indian I've been addicted most of my life
👏👏👏 You got my support. Tears of joy in my eyes. You're not alone. We are with you. Eat right, drink smoothies and clean fresh water and kick some ass in the gym. You got this, love ya family.
This brought tears to my eyes, as someone trying to kick the habit, you've inspired me, and I couldn't thank you enough
You can do it Austin!!! Keep going man.
You got this. You're stronger than you think. How do I know this about you? Because you realize there's a problem that needs fixing and that you have to fix it. Go get them tiger. YOU got this. God bless you.
Wishing you all the strength and positivity you need to make it through! You can do it! ☺️💕
You are not alone brother. It was 7 years straight of every day drinking until I broke down and went to detox 3 weeks ago. I made a week sober and have been fighting this relaps since. This song broke me down, especially the last verse. Keep fighting bro, don't be afraid to get help. Most people in our situation need guidance and support with this. I'm praying for all of us, stay strong.
You can do 🖤🙏
As said before - DAX is King 🤟
Agreed
Deep. Facts!
THANK YOU FOR THIS SONG, U LITERALLY SANG WHAT IVE BEEN FEELING FOR THE PAST 4MONTHS. 🥺😔😔
Bless you Dax. You just sang a song that made this 60 year old lady cry. 6 years sober one day at a time and with the help of the Good Lord!
It is good that you are sober. I am not, but it's good that you are. In fact, my life revolves around numbing myself every weekend. But, unlike most who have a problem with it, I am okay with it. I am also 60 and I have had a hard life. It's hard to fly very close to success and still fail. At 60, I am thinking that maybe I have 15 years left, tops. So, I am going to take those last 15 years and I am going to be as reckless as I can be. I am going to enjoy in these moments, and do the things I could not obtain when I was younger.
@@danminutsich7509im 19 amd i just found this song, realised i had a problem about 5 months ago, gonna keep fighting through cause i have a picture of what i want my future children to see me as, idk you, or if you have kids or grandkids, and my words might not help you at all, but if you want to then i believe you can fight it
@@danminutsich7509 same here. Been struggling for about 3 years now but every sober story gives me hope even if I take none for myself. I’m only 37 and can’t see myself living to 60.
@@danminutsich7509It's easy to give up when you aren't successful it's the easy way out. I understand that you had a hard life and I don't know what you went through but your gonna come all this way to put into being reckless. Why not put it into something deeper like helping out your community and trying to support others for the ways you probably weren't. Be the change to someone that you didnt have! Don't continue the chain, break it! You can do it man don't give up just because it's hard 💯
♥️♥️♥️
113 days clean from heroin today this song helps more than you know DAX much love and respect brother man
I'm proud of you!
Thank you
Its a worthwhile lifelong battle. Hang tough!
I'm at day 2, I'm crawling in my skin so bad. How did you do it?

Blessings 🙏🏾
Keep it going
God is with you man. Keep strong
@Dave DDM I understand you have your views and I respect that, but as an alcoholic in a 12 step program, God as I understand him is the most the most important thing in my life today. We are beyond human aid! ❤️ we do a ton of work... but it's all to become closer to a God AS WE UNDERSTOOD HIM. :)
Congratulations :) im proud
@Dave DDM u could have kept this comment to yourself
If you are reading this right now just know you are Amazing!!!
And you more than me so proud for you 😅😅😅😅😅😅
Hey dax love this shit. I've been an alcoholic all my life I'm 38. Started listening to you and MacDonald about a year ago. I think y'all's message is getting through I'm 8 months sober now and not looking back. Thank you brother keep up the awesome work. Thank you
Keep on keeping on brother. Always one step at a time 💪🏿💪🏿
Keep it up!
Good shit bro
I found DAX through Tom Macdonald and sooo happy I did! Both give me positive thoughts when I feel the world around us had become so negative and infuriating!
Congrats!!! Keep it up!! I'm proud of you!
my mom just heard ur song last night and shes struggled with alcohol addiction since i was a little kid and now she called a rehab center today to get better. thank u sm dax❤️❤️
That's great news! 6 months sober here and rooting for your Mom! I don't have a Mom so give her a big hug from me and tell her I will be praying to God for her.
Your mom is a warrior. Keep moving forward.
Awesome good news 👍she's a miracle in progress 😀 🙏
I will be praying for you and mom! When days get hard….tell her God sees her and believes in her!😍😍😍🙏
Praise God!!!! Congratulations
this is the first song i ever listened to by dax, and it brought me to tears, it hit me right in the soul, this has been my life for the last decade at least and im struggling to stop, this song really got to me, just gotta keep pushing to get better
Its interesting how things happen huh
Nha for me it's love Hurt
This man has such a beautiful voice!! ❤️ omg his vocal chords are blessed! 😍
One of my favorite songs. Love how it's wrote and sung. And it's so relatable. Beautiful
I'm 29. Been battling alcoholism since I was 12. Listen to this everyday trying to get better.
You did it and you can continue to, just be strong and ask the Almighty God to give you the strength and courage to battle it ❤️❤️❤️ you will be fine
Hope you get the strength to quit.
Yes, you can do it!! Stay strong! Surround yourself with the right people. You can!!
Keep fighting brother, you got this! You got this!!!!
I'll be the real one. Alcohol is a drug that our government has confided in. They don't care about alcoholism because they profit from it. We are the clowns in our society, so no one pays attention. This is about you and how you want to live life. No one cares about you. You have to do it for yourself. Sometimes, it sucks to suck. Recovering alcoholic here. I still don't understand why our world is too busy to take care of the inhabitants.
Dax if this reaches you, just know that this song was deep and it hit so many dark places that people don’t don’t discuss. This is the anthem for so many people like myself. You really spoke the truth and told many of our stories thru your music. Thanks brother. God bless you.
Yes!
Dax 48 days sober today don't ever forget the path that led you to this song
Amen!!! 🙏🏼
3 1/2 months sober. It's been a struggle. I've never felt more alone and broken. Dax your music brother has helped me pick myself up and want to wake up in the mornings and keep on pushing forward. Thank you for bringing these subjects into the light. Your words are an inspiration for everyone struggling and looking for a reason to keep living. Thank you for everything you do.
Man this song is talkin straight from my heart
Crazy how I come across relatable music so much. I’m 6 weeks sober actually. And everyday isn’t easy but I’m fighting for it. I feel this song In my soul. Stay strong guys we can do it!
Yes you can! You may have those days but you will make it through!
Good shit brother
Congratulations! Keep it going. One day at a time.
Rooting for your sober 🙌
@@MZ-cx5ui thanks so much! Gotta go to battle everyday 💪
“I’m taking care of these people but no one takes care of me. I wanna talk to somebody, but I feel like no one relates” that’s deeepp and I’m sure a lot of people relate, I know I do at times. This is a much needed track for the world to hear! Keep pushing the positivity Dax ✊🏽🙏🏽
My thoughts exactly. I quit drinking, smoking and my relationship all in one day. This hits home so hard.
Those words hit me hard because my job is take care of ppl but the real fact is that I have no one who really cares about me and believe it takes a lot to hold strong.
We just got keep pushing each day regardless. Bless up
I agree dear alcohol damn great song that's going to help of young viewers to help with there problems keep up the great work dax love your music listen to it everyday you da best 👌
@@nicolettechanner8182 my mom works with people with special needs and my sister and gf both work in the hospital so I totally understand your comment! One of the reasons I try to message/call them often just to see how they’re doing. Bc they take care of people all day long. Last thing I’d want is for them to think no one is there for them.
@@23muddigger thanks alot because it really does get lonely at times and I don't even have the family support system nor true close fiends .... SMH my life is a mess so let me not even start. Thanks for the comment.
When I heard the line, "I'm taking care of the people, but no takes care of me", I felt chills. I'm a new dad and my little man has brought a new light for me in the darkness of drinking. One day at a time everything will be ok
Tommy, Congrats on being a new Dad. I'm a Dad and my kids rarely talk to me because of that darkness of Alcohol. Praying you don't waste his or your time the way I did. Take care and enjoy every moment, even the tough times in parenting.
I can relate. ♡ I got sober for my kids and it makes it all worth it. I never would've done it just for myself ♡ hang in there
Congrats on being a new dad. Keep pushing brother you got this
Stay strong for ur lil boy , congrats
You got this
Dax you're great Man😓💪💯
I work at a detox and recovery facility and I've previously shared your song "Eternity" with them with great effect. I'll be sharing this one as well. Keep sharing your stories Dax!
Eternity was a banger 🔥
Just got out of being in jail for 2 days for drinking... My first time being there
I think that you and what you do is remarkable, especially in a detox and recovery place. You’re showing them that they are not alone in their battles and using music can be quite therapeutic in recovery!
I'm 35 years old and I have struggle with alcohol since I was a teenager. I am now 8 months sober. Anything is possible. This song is beautiful.
36 y/o and I was in deep. Finally felt like I'd drank enough for an entire lifetime and decided to leave it behind in 2013. Nearly 9 years later (went over 3 years straight without a single drink) and I've had only several (destination all inclusive wedding, and two other local weddings) of slip ups, but NEVER let it swallow me whole or bring me back. It's amazing how quickly life changes when you put in that initial 30 days to feel better. Congrats to you on 8 months!! Major accomplishment! Keep it up.
Thank's Dax, Needed this one. To all those out there dealing with an alcohol problem, You got this! Stay strong! You are not alone in this fight!
Nowadays they only care about you when youre gone..😞 Im just tryna be heard
all it takes is one person to change my life forever help me get heard I promise you wont be disappointed🔥
sober now 90 days. listened to this song while drunk fore years. hits diffrent now.
As a recovered alcoholic who is almost 3 years sober, I REALLY relate to this song. On my weaker days when I was drinking, this was exactly how I felt. Thank you for putting this out there even though it's a touch of your personal side.
@@danielnwosujr8181 this is so obviously a fake account
@@lslking the hell are you on about? The Daniel Nwosu Jr account acting like they're Dax has 1 follower. Read the whole thread.
@@danielnwosujr8181 very fake stop impersonatin' someone... mennn people these days 🙄🙄😒😒🤣🤣🤣
you were not weak, you were struggling like most of us are, were in shackles of alcoholism
Should have called Tobirama.... Would have helped with your Uchiha problem
This part: "I’m taking care of these people but no one takes care of me
I want to talk to somebody but I feel no one relates". That's me, and I'm burnt out. Keep em coming Dax
Ur not alone brother feel that so deep stay strong
Noone can relate what is going on in your own head and you cant explain it
Hey
@@taylorpruitt3656 That part too :-)
Keep going.
I'm in therapy right now to stop my addiction. Some days I find myself feeling like giving up, but I keep on fighting. Thanks for this song Dax. I honestly never would have thought that music could ever help me like yours can.
I’m 28 months sober yesterday and music is huge deal for me ! I had to stop listening to a lot of my rock/metal cause it was depressing and not positive! Hang in there you got this
I have been sober 2 years from Meth there are good days and there are bad days your not alone, you can do it I believe in you
You got this.
No matter what you use to numb your pain, everybody can relate to this song. I am ashamed to say I just found him as an artist. You are now on the top of my playlist. Simply amazing amount of talent and depth in your writing.
Today I’ve been 34 days this is the longest I’ve been sober in 8 years, and this song hits hard. Everything I was going through is put all into this song. Such a great song.
You got this!!
u got this bro keep it up❤️❤️
Keep going man, I recently slipped around that time. It's easy to get complacent once your body no longer hurts, stay strong and when the drink calls, don't pick up.
Congrats! Have you tried any of the fda approved medications like naltrexone?
I served my country, lost a lot of friends, picked up my drinking in Okinawa, camp kinser. Your videos keep me from ending it Dax. Keep em pushing
I need you to know that i love you and i am so glad you are fighting that thought enough to put it in writing!
You are amazing and wonderful bc God formed you in your mother's womb and He knows every single detail and still loves you enough to let His only Son take the blame for everything you (and I, and everyone else) ever did wrong.
Did you know He holds all our tears in a bottle? Can you imagine how many blessings He has for you? One for each tear, my brother!
I know you dont know me, and most of the time I'm a pain in the butt, but I love you, brave soldier! Trust that someone in Georgia, USA loves you and thanks you for your sacrifice!
Im a ford girl, too, lol. But that 67 Chevelle SS, well, ive dreamed of her on cold nights, 😆😆😆

I almost sped up the process too. Ended up on life support and they didn’t expect me to wake up. Check out Eminem’s song Never be Alone. A lot happened after that during my last relapse causing physical scars, trauma, losing 2.5 years to prison, and almost losing my life on purpose. I was mad when I woke up unexpectedly on life support with a tube down my throat to breathe. Now I couldn’t imagine not going though the experiences I have since then. Even prison, when I think about it it was like living im one of those tv shows everyone loves. It gets better, sometimes it doesn’t sty that way, but there is always tomorrow.
Semper FI brotha.
This is gonna BLESS so many people bro 💯

still going through this but this song makes you want to change and become better
I don’t have an addiction but this song still brings tears. Depression exists and for some reason this song helps. Thank you Dax!!!
Beautiful
Alcohol is a depressant.and I have several depression so when I drink I sink lower. My brain chemistry goes way off and I crash. Than my depression intensifies. Being sober is great. It's alright to be depressed it shows we are human. Depression is just reality because all it is that we are aware and the world is actually depressing but we are happy and shine bright on the good occasions.

There’s no way this song won’t go super viral this is a masterpiece, like everything else you make
This broke me, tears flooded my eyes. I'm 5 months sober, it's not much but I'm so proud of myself for that first step in getting help
You’ve done well keep fighting. I’m not an alcoholic but I’ve had to battle addiction as well I am two years sober. And it was not easy.
Hell yeah man!!! I’m fuckin proud of you 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
@@chaosinorder9685 thanks brother, we're fighting the good fight. Congrats on your sobriety, two years is awesome!
@@j.rivera6402 thanks man, it's hard but damn you come out a better person 💪appreciate you brotha
@@j.rivera6402 even just one week is hard when battling alcoholism, drug addiction, etc. Any addiction is hard to conquer. So even just one week is an accomplishment
Thank you Dax for the inspiration for all that need a lil help 🙏🏽🙏🏽
I’m 47 days sober today and this song and the challenge has brought tears to my eyes. It’s amazing to hear my thoughts and feelings put into words that I could never find!
You got this keep it
Congratulations on 47 days! Keep going on and stay strong!
Congrats on 47 days and for putting it out there for us all. God bless you! 🙏
❤️
I'm closing in on four months sober from alcohol in about a week and this song, I needed it man, especially in these hard times. Thank You Dax
Hey, CONGRATS on almost 4 months!! You're doing amazing!! I promise it gets easier and you will never regret quitting!! I'm proud of you for already making it this far, I know how absolutely difficult it is!! Do not be afraid to reach out, ask for help and connect with people who will support and encourage you. Watch out for the ones who will hold you back or drag you down. Anyone who doesn't want to lift you up and push you to do better just wants to bring you down to their level so they have someone to suffer with. I wish you the very best, you got this!!
Congratulations! Keep up the good work!
Dax I want you to know that you're music 🎶 is helping me grow. I thanked God for you. I have 110 sober today. I'm picking up the pieces of very broken 💔 thank you for being there for us 🙏
110, hell yeah. Keep going.
I almost fell into this dark hole of alcoholism but I stopped myself before I did. This song and every other song you release has so much meaning to me and many others. Thank you Dax!

I still cry to this song cuz it stabs my heart so deep. I still can’t shake this hard addiction. But I listen to this song every day to help remind myself I need to fix myself to fix the world around me
Your not alone
You can do it bro... U will feel a lot better...just do it put your mind in tht stat and u can kick this addiction
Dude anyone can do anything they want. You have or need to want it. No person or song can make you, you have to take that first step and start the change, then use those people or songs as support to never look back
Coming up on 10 yrs sober - I was violent, homeless drunk -- but no longer. You can be a sober man. Connect with sober supports. My thoughts are with you my friend
I'm with you. It's so hard. Especially when it's the only thing that makes you happy. Or at least you think it does 😔
I'm sober since my 1st son's birth. He almost 4 months old. I made a promise before he was even born to get sober for him. ❤Thanks for saving me son❤
Your son didn't make you sober friend. You did that. I hope you feel a sense of pride. We're here for you ❤
Thanks so much for your words❤
That was jesus amen
You got this 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hold on to that. It is a life long battle! Thank of him before you take a drink. Im talking for rest of his life. I know, 1 sip and you could miss years
Thank you Dax for such a Beautiful song and lyrics
