I almost didn't make this video simply because of how personal this is. But ultimately I'm glad I did. Mostly because: I know there are a lot of people out there that are struggling, hurting, and tired of the devastation and destruction that comes with this addiction. Alcohol dependance is undoubtedly a complex situation, and I hope that anyone who is caught up in the grasp of this cunning and baffling disease can possibly acquire insight into rising above it. Like I said in this video, there are more people than you may realize that are sober people. It's hard to believe when drinking is all you know, but I promise you, there is a better life outside of the dark, depressing, and lonely depths of an alcohol induced rock bottom. Despite this weeks video being different from the videos I usually make, I feel this needed to be said. I also want to thank you for watching this painful video and I hope everyone has a great week ahead.
See y'all next week...

    I planned on replying to every comment here, but the amount of them is a little overwhelming... I have read most of them though. I love you all so much and appreciate all the support too! To those of you struggling with a substance, I hope sharing my story helped or at least provoked some positive thoughts on possibly making some changes in your life. 3 years later and I am still sober: https://youtu.be/kb8gLNYNah0

    I quit today, after losing nearly everything. Starting AA tomorrow. Wish me luck.
  • @AllansStation
    Keep it up. A heavy drinker for over 30 years. Decided one day that's enough, this is killing me. I was 60 years of age and dying. I just stopped. Now aged 92 in perfect health. Never had or wanted a drink since then. It can be done
  • @howlartwork798
    man i watched this when i first decided it was time to quit alcohol. I remember thinking I hope I manage a year sober, seemed impossible. I just past my first year of sobriety from alcohol :D
  • @MattyRox
    Sober 38 days, hey it’s a start.
  • @Bwh-rm3py
    I made it 14 months without drinking, it was the best time of my life. Met the love of my life and planned to get married at the age of 54. I lost control and started drinking again. She gone now and well I'm not sure what to do but here i go again with not drinking. Anyone reading, please don't wait until your 54, do it now.
  • 5 years, do I miss it? Yea, is my life 1000 times better now? absolutely.
  • 23 year old female and I’m not an alcoholic but I can see it going in that direction. I’m watching all these videos to get myself to stop now before I can’t.
  • @Blessedup69
    I quit then relapsed. Then quit then relapsed. Then after repeating that 50 times I got it right. I stopped counting the days ,I’m 8 years sober

  • @jasondiaz8792
    I’m 83 days with no alcohol. And it’s hasn’t been easy. But I wanna learn to respect myself. I need to keep going.
  • @alexs3958
    I’m 10 days off alcohol (I know that isn’t a lot but it’s big to me) and feel incredible! Here’s to life with clarity 😊.
  • @kaitruntley
    Hey brother I’ve been fighting this demon for 20 years. Every once in a while I’ll rewatch this video and it reminds me of the pure hell alcoholism is. Thank you for opening up and sharing this. Reminds me that I’m not alone.
  • @alkmke
    15 days sober and this video helped me off the struggle bus today. Thank you ♡
  • @bridawg24
    16 years without a drink. Life is good!
  • @ericward9159
    A lot of people drink to feel good, I drink to not feel at all.

    Woke up this morning and realised how many Christmas I lost being drunk . Never got to enjoy the Christmas dinner or see my son open his gifts . Really excited for this Christmas sober . Will be my first . One day at a time
