112 days of sobriety my life is fantastic, free from the poison of alcohol 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I'm on day 2. Best of luck to everyone in recovery. Things will get better. You're all worth so much!
How's it going for you... Prayers for you still
@@tracyhouston I'm going on a month now, and honestly I feel pretty good. There's a lot more things to confront than you ever know while you're self medicating, but I think I'm on the right path.
Thank you
I hope you’re still crushing it Joey!
Consider AA meetings
This my first week with no weed I've quit opiates well kinda I'm on Suboxone maintenance a total of 4 mg a day but the weed first then the subs next wish me luck guys if u do like this comment it will remind me to stay strong I hope you all stay strong as well God willing we got this
I am working on sobriety and it's a struggle. I work in a pharmacy and rehab centers get you off alcohol to get you addicted to suboxone. Don't fall for it!!!
Good luck. Consider AA meetings. They did me wonders. Yes even for drugs
@@michaelmotorcycle7138 I appreciate your input I'll look into it for sure I've been on Suboxone for 5 years so it's gonna be a process a hard one
My best advice early on is to always keep you guard up. It's easy to say no at first but then you can get lazy and took sobriety for granted.
My name is Paulo.
I was a horrendous alcoholic and over 1 L of vodka a day. I almost died three times and had to be rushed to hospital. I have been sober four years. Now I am the most famous foreigner in Cambodia as I accidentally launched a television career. I am now the number one English speaking news reader and I hunt abandoned Temples just like Indiana Jones
My story is incredible and people do tell me that Maybe we could do a interview that would help other people to see there is so much more beyond the horrors of addiction
If you want to do an interview, let me know and I’ll be happy to talk with you to help others
7 days sober! I did quit cold turkey last Monday after waking up with Vertigo after 4 or so glasses of wine the day/evening before.
I promised God if he made it stop I’d quit drinking. So far so good. No more guilt and shame.
Now always imagine God is right there with you. Are you really gonna go back after asking for direct support?
Whenever I am tempted, I always like to remind myself that "God is with me!"
No. It was a promise.The guilt, lack of energy, bad sleep had been going on too long. I’m a rider and love to work out. More importantly I’m a committed Christian and can’t deal with the sin anymore. Praying that God has mercy and heals my body and mind. At least I have a a very good diet and exercise program most of my life. Still haven’t told anyone except one person that I’ve quit including my husband. I think I’m afraid to. Thanks for all you do! God definitely led me to your channel!
@@GettingSoberAgain
Not going back. Breaking that promise would open me up to the enemy again with dire consequences. @@GettingSoberAgain
Jesus Christ is a healer for sure
Tomorrow will be a month AF!! Praise God!!
Day one for me. It’s hard
It was hard for all of us.. you're in the right place!
Don't forget, a video a day keeps the cravings away!

Hi Jae! Six days sober😀. I’ve been listening to you for quite sometime now and thinking about getting sober. You are really encouraging and so is this audience. My skin already looks better, sleep is still a little restless. I’m so glad you warned us about replacing drinking with another bad habit. I want to eat more! I’ve been giving myself permission with the excuse that I’m not taking in all those extra calories with alcohol. I’m working on a plan for that, and I’m beginning to exercise. Thank you so much for this channel!!!
My sleep is always restless even after 2 years, but even STILL, being sober and getting broken sleep is better than being drunk and getting poor rest.
I am happy to hear that you're doing so well otherwise, and I look forward to reading more of your comments and insights on our videos!
Remember: There is no such thing as commenting too little! The more the better =)
Hi valerie, 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 so much! It’s nice to have someone check on me. I’m doing great! This is a wonderful community of caring people. I’m so glad to be here!
@@valeriethomas4168 I am so glad to hear you are doing well!
@valerie it's your 1 month checkup :) how are you doing today on this Halloween day??
I stayed sober for 5 years and then slowly but surely fell back into, completely. I am literally on day 2 today and I can’t get the thought that I can’t do it out of my head playing on replay. I live alone and lost my job and am completely isolated so I am happy to have found this channel to help me hopefully retrain my brain to know that I can do it. I’ve done it before. I started therapy a month ago so I know that is good support for me. Thank you for being here for all of us!
You know most people we found out from our Sunday Livestream (tonight at 7pm Eastern) never go to therapy.
I believe it's crucial for self development to better understand ourselves more and gain the perspective that we wouldn't have otherwise.
I'm glad you already have the building blocks for sobriety and I look forward to counting the days together! 💛💜🧡
Nati you can do it i today Sunday 7-2-23 am 10 days sober
Thanks manny. You got this too! Don’t give up on yourself!
Congrats on embracing sobriety. Keep striving to improve yourself.
5 years is amazing 👏
Being sober is such an awesome feeling!
It really is! It's like a different and new improved version of yourself you just unlocked
Im a 6-12 beers a night drinker. Kombucha, for some reason, hits the spot. Its helping me with the cravings, whenever I want something thats what I reach for. And I'm not looking at forever. Im looking at today. Today its not an option, and then I just say that every day. It helps.
🗣️📢 I WILL NOT DRINK TODAY
Two days sober and this video was very helpful. Thank you so much man
Love you bro!
I spent today getting light exercise and much needed stretching. It even cleared a bit of brain fog.
I suffer from psoriatic arthritis and the blunt fact is that alcohol will wreack havoc on the joints. If I don't stay the sobriety course, which is certainly why I'm here... again, I'll deform and destroy my joints.
I beg you, if you have an auto immune disease please abstain from alcohol.
Edit: I just got a click counter app, quitting vaping is exactly like they show in those commercials.
Nice job getting that app and great job making people aware of the inflammation alcohol causes!
Congratulations on your improved health Christopher Patrick. I hope you find more and more ways to keep your joint pain under control. Keep striving to improve yourself.
Regarding # 3, my recommendation is to spend the 1st day doing a complete cleanup of your living space. You may want to continue over the next days clearing out all the clutter. The minimalist lifestyle goes well with sobriety.
I just discovered your channel. Im almost 70 and im so ready to be done.
Im gonna watch at least one of your episodes each day.
You pack in a lot of very useful stuff in a half hour or so.
Im burned out on AA meetings because they are so inefficient with my time in an hour long meeting.
I just watched 3 of your videos and learned way more than i would have learned in a week of AA meetings. THANK YOU.
I will "keep coming back" to your presentations Sir.
Hey alright!!! That's what I hoped to do with the videos, to give you the fuel and motivation to blast off into sobriety!
Awesome, thanks for sharing! I'm almost 70 myself and glad to find others my age that are still alive and want to be free! Wishing all the best for all of us who share the struggle.❤
P.S. God bless Jae for his work, for he is definitely a blessing to me, and I know he is for many others.
@@auntiemsplace 🥰🥰🥰🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👼👼👼
Drink water small bites.. hot showers stay around positive people.. Tylenol, nausea meds benzos (,, Dr only) meds for diarrhea or constipation... Stay productive..... If you can not sleep showers and sleep in-between... Read a book clean if you can... Positive people only... You can do this.... After two weeks do not think because you feel better change them people places and things.... Journal if you can.... You deserve this.... You are worth it... I chose to take a friend's jail charge 10 years ago and I've been sober since... Just remember this is temporary.... You can do this...
Here I am back again after being sober for 3+ months and then thinking I can manage my alcohol intake, before I knew it I was back at it every other day. Here we go again
it be like that
Keep pointing yourself in the direction of sobriety. Keep striving to improve yourself .
Thank you for this. I have been waffling back and forth with binge drinking daily for the past 4 years and have been drinking consistently since I was 21. I am turning 47 next week and boy do I feel lucky I still have my health and a chance to turn things around. Although I have been fairly active and semi fit through much of my drinking career, once I turned 40 I noticed a big decline in my health and overall well being. I have made 60 days before and then felt like I earned a drink, but watching this has given me a new focus on getting sober. Thank you thanks for all the love.
That's great to hear Andy! I'm just a few years behind you and my health is top priority. Once it's gone, we don't get it back!
I'll tell you what, Every time you leave a comment on one of our videos, I will write you back :)
Im in the same situation. My body and soul both know it is time for change. stay strong!
You are so spot on!
Just over 12 months here. It definitely gets easier. I was a heavy daily drinker and now hardly ever think about it.
Do it for yourself
Think about the long term
Good luck 🏴
👊👊👊
Loved this one Jae.
There you go again with the positivity 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you for this great advice! 🙏
YW, thank you for your positivity!
Appreciate the info bro it really helped me out

Great video thank you. I should prob listen to this every day to beat it in my head in a nice way
Awesome with some great tips . Giving up has just made me a happy person with heaps more energy and I just glad I stopped killing myself a little every time I drank
Thanks so much for this site! I'm just getting started on a path to living an alcohol free life and your posts are very helpful. Again, many thanks!

Trigger FASTING! That is FANTASTIC advice. Thank you 🙂

I listen to you every day, Jae, when I am out walking for exercise! I *SO* agree with your Tip #14! At least for me, exercise is crucial for fighting anxiety and depression, and building up feelings of well-being. I love to get out there on long walks of 1-2 hours ... and I will "binge listen" to several of your episodes! You are doing great work! Thank You for doing it!
Binge listen, I love it! Exercise is so KEY. It extends your life, repairs your mental health and helps us to sleep better each night!
I try my best to exercise every day if possible!

Tip no4. Rest. I quit drinking for 30 days in 2022.
I was waking at 5am and going to bed at 7pm.
For some reason I convinced myself I was just escaping by sleeping that early.
As always my negative thoughts win the argument so I started to drink again.
I look back now and realize my body, my mind, my everything needed that and whatever time it was wasn't important. My body needed to sleep.
Replay gang!! All of these tips are great and 100% true! It takes time, One day at a time.

Today is day 7 for my journey. Been a rough few days but the future looks bright.
Thank you dude. This was a great video plain and simple. It is really helping me on my sober journey. I took a "detour" and it helped me to stay focused
That's what it's all about. This isn't some ALL OR NOTHING club. This is the human experience. we aren't perfect, and failure is part of the learning process.
I don't know about you but I'm definitely a hands-on learner!
I’m watching this for the first time today and it’s really insightful and the part where you said you probably want to reduce anxiety n depression got to me

Thank you brother man I’m 31 gonna be 32 in December I’ve been using this app on my phone “I am sober “ it’s helped I have been doing better but I keep resetting my sober start date I’ve been able to smoke less just at end of the night instead of all day but I want to go cold turkey for at least a month or 2 I’ve been smoking weed heavily since 14-15 years old and I’m kinda over it at the moment it’s not going anywhere and feel like been smoking out of boredom I’m excited and hype to start this sober journey once again one that helps alot is having hobbies for me it’s ( skateboarding , gaming , started reading more of my books, photography )thank god I’m not super smoked out and that’s only hobby I have 🙏🏽

Hey I love your videos Jae! Day 102 sober. These videos really help to reinforce good habits…
That's what it's all about, and someday YOU Will be the one to guide people in a better direction!
Nice video. Please also add magnesium to your diet. Alcohol removes magnesium faster than anything. Magnesium is what your body uses to sleep along with 300 other processes. Your body uses up its stores of magnesium to process alcohol. And get a b complex to go with it. It will help you stay sober
Fantastic advice James!!!

It was great to find you, man. Your clips are really helping. I'm making it! Thank you!
Woooooooo!!!! I'm glad you're here too! What's the story?
@@GettingSoberAgain Nothing worth telling. Far too much drinking for 20 years. Bar cronies, day drinking, and secret drinking. I have a job that allows me to travel often, and I was using that ability to just go to FOREIGN bars, hang with FOREIGN bar cronies and drink during the day. A couple of months ago, I woke up feeling like a hungover beached whale, and finally saw it was time to stop. I got that Easy Way to Quit drinking book, and was looking through RUclips for affirmation, and up you popped. I ain't out of the woods, but the cravings have really lessened and I'm up and walking and biking. Anyway, thanks. Your stuff is great.
Keep doing great work!
This guy knows his stuff people and helped me in my first months when I had no community. 💪💯
You're too sweet! I was just thinking about you today. How are you?
Hi Deborah, 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!
This is the best channel and advice that I can relate to that I’ve ever heard. I listen every day in hopes that I can stay sober, but I keep going back to day one.😩
Let's pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and get back on the horse you rode in on!
All great advices 👍🏻
Day 16 and feeling fantastic..
DAY 16 LET'S GOOOOOO!!!! By the time Sober October starts, you'll be 23 days ahead of the game!
Congratulations on your current sobriety streak!! Keep the momentum going!!
Thanks man. Perfect timing
Yusssssssss! Hows your journey shaping up?
I have to be patient. I got the notion that everything is going to improve quickly. But the reality is I might go through a period of dysfunction before improvement. It early.
Keep striving to improve yourself Mitch
Great information!!
I was very happy with this one too!! Here's a little secret:
I first recorded the episode and it took 55 minutes (before editing of course). Once I sat down to edit all this footage, i realized that I had not turned my microphone on.
SO, I had to go back and re record the ENTIRE THING, but this time it took 29 minutes, and I edited it down to the 15 minute beauty that you have here =)
If anyone had a real idea of how much idea I spend on the channel per week, they might be shocked.
@@GettingSoberAgain Keep up the good work Jae. I know it takes time to refine your material until it sounds excellent.
Hi Jay am trying to get sober went for check up everything was high except blood pressure dietbies was high and liver so it's been 3 days no drinking feel good but I have along ways to go but thank you for the head start I will continue to watch you Thank you

Great practical tips. I especially agree with staying busy and using the new free time to get educated on stuff like what causes cravings etc. I think understanding the science of addiction gives us the tools to deal with it - as opposed to grimly white-knuckling it!
Creating healthy replacement habits is always advised! There's only so much lying in bed watching Netflix one can do, ya know?

Love this channel and the support for people out there who maybe struggling with alcoholism. I’m 15 days sober and never felt better. I practice mindfulness everyday, and meditation and breath work helps soooo much especially with cravings and irritability.. to anyone reading Keep on keeping on with you journey to sobriety, nothing is impossible because when you break impossible down it spells I-M-POSSIBLE! You just have to change your mind and how it thinks, legit gain your control back that’s rightfully yours! I’m

What really helped me to get sober was my personal frame of reference for alcohol. Theres always health ramifications and i just couldnt solve the issues that it caused. xoxo
Thank you to you and King 13/Debs for the incredible zoom! I was cohost and sorry, I didn't know what to say so was quiet!
I started drinking at 48 years of age. I had a successful life as a fitness professional and had done 20 years of therapy for my childhool. At 48, shit hit the fan in my house with various life-changing anxiety-flocked events. I am an addict and have been 20 - 30 years away from hard drugs. I'm a winner! Now I'm 6 months without alcohol, too. My sobriety and recovery feels different from others. I've compared and most people are dealing with childhood issues, while I am not. Events triggered my gene and opened the door to heavy use. I feel I'm on par with those in recovery/discovery for years, but am conscious of being over-confident. I'm looking for people with the late-in-life blooming.
Thank you so much Jae - you are brilliant and you glow. :~D
😀 It was a lot of fun, and I'm grateful for everyone who is stepping up to alcohol and saying "enough is enough!"
You certainly have a story to tell and I'm glad that you are co-hosting and allowing others to vicariously live through your strength.
May you continue to shine on, find more opportunities in your obstacles and be an amazing representative for sobriety 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Plain soda with a slice of lemon or lime is nice, and has no sugar. Or just sparking mineral water with lemon or lime…

I’ve been watching your videos for a while after 14 years of heavy drinking on and off, eventually it became a daily thing affecting my relationships and how I would express myself. For some reason, lately I’ve been feeling “tired of being tired” and yesterday I felt a rush of emotions out of nowhere and that made me realize that every time that I have a strong feeling I would grab a drink (positive or negative). It’s the first time in years that I’m acknowledging my feelings without suppressing or enhancing my feelings with alcohol. Three days sober, one day at a time.
This is a great start to a wonderful journey. We have tons of great videos for all of your sober curiosities so please don't be a stranger, make yourself welcome and keep us updated on your progress!

I'm going sober from alcohol, not because of a drinking problem but because of health problems caused by Covid. I physically can't do it anymore. This is good advice, thanks.

Your tips are great. However there are many who started drinking from lonliness- certainly during Covid.. My friend was drinking alone and he got in that habit. So avoiding bars or stores for him was not a concern. It was his soothing his sense of non connection.A very big problem of our tines. And yet he is one of the most popular people I know. Great tips, and Iwill share your videos him. I like the non judgement , he says he can't relate to AA
Maybe he will benefit from the direct link to the playlist!
Here's the playlist to our most recent episodes!

Hello Jae, I hope all is well ? .......I haven't seen any 'youtubes' from you in a while.
Just a quick line to say thank you......I recently passed my 2 years sober.........can't believe it 2 years !!!
I must admit I am proud of myself, there were times I was close to having a drink, very close......but stuck to it and I think I can now safely say the craving has gone.......
Once again thanks for your help and support and here's to the next 2 years
🍷🍸🍹🧋
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! 🏆🏆 Great to hear from you! 2 Years is huge and you should absolutely be proud of yourself and loving the person that you've become.
We are still putting our content almost every day (a lot of short videos) and bi-weekly longform episodes. I know that after awhile, most people stop watching when they don't need the support anymore so no hard feelings :)
The point is to help people get back on the right track and you certainly have. good luck, Godspeed and stay in touch when you remember 😎
Hello Jae, I didn't stop watching on purpose.......my 'subscribe' button unsubscribed on its own accord........wacky but true. Anyway, I am now back on board as I do like the videos and continued support.
Its interesting how family, friends (people who knew bad drinking Dave) and people I met reacted to me not drinking...it was a curious mixture of interest, some distain, lots of 'why' and a number of people said I would never quit for good..........a number people also said 'good for you.
NO !!! good for me ha ha ha ha
Once again thank you ........and see you on the next video, best regards, Dave
A slippery slope with regard to self improvement is that you become a mirror of humanity. People don't like to be reminded on how they could choose to make better decisions.
That's why I don't even really talk about it all that much on my personal social media 🤷
Day 2 here.
👏👏 Keep going 🙏🙏
FOMO and boredom are my biggest hurdles. I have to just tell myself (in terms of not drinking) “do it until it’s normal”.
I'm liking your comments! "do it until it's normal".
I might have to request normalizing commenting on our videos everyday until it's normal lol
hello Jae
I’d like to add tip#23 - get a higher power!
Tip #24 Choose Love 💛
I had six months of sobriety last year but have been struggling lately with daily beer binges after work followed by a few hits of weed. Not exactly sure how I manage to function at work. Looking forward to getting back on track.
