6 Lessons from 6 Years Sober

Day 2 sober from 21 years of drinking..... Got to start somewhere

Camojeepguy Yes!! Hopefully you’re still hanging in there. Every day is a good day to start my over!

I suffered from a stroke recently after 24 years of substance abuse including heavy drinking and hard recreational drugs. It was a miracle I left the hospital with only minor affects and I promised myself that night that I needed to change my life. I have been 5 weeks sober since the day I was emitted to the ER.

[@Unitedbambu]

Michael Davis Thanks - it was described by the doctors as cryptogenic meaning they weren't able to identify the exact physical cause (like blood pressure levels, cholesterol, etc). After a candid discussion with them about my past and existing lifestyle the consensus was that it was due to my 20+ years of smoking, decades of heavy drinking (often binges at a time), and pretty frequent use of cocaine and period use of estacy. It doesn't sound like we have similar lifestyles but let my words be a lesson for you to dodge that bullet before it happens to you. It's certainly not something you would wish on anyone so while I don't know You, do what you can to make the lifestyle changes your need man. Hope that helps.

[@Unitedbambu]

Michael Davis sorry meant it *DOES* sound like we have similar lifestyles

[@franciscofredericci4081]

How are you doing? :)

[@columbmurray1292]

Word of warning. I had a stroke in year 2000 drinking too much gin in Hong Kong. My sobriety didn't last. Easy to start again so like all these sites will tell you need support to continue to be sober. You cannot do it by yourself. Find the support you like, AA etc.

The focus on not doing it today really worked wonders for me when I was going through nicotine withdrawal. The thought of never being allowed to smoke again felt oppressive and really stressed me out but I was able to let it go and just focus on not smoking on that very day which was so much easier.

[@alanwann9318]

I have been sober 4 years and love the effect and am happy without drink

[@vetreferee]

Congratulations on your years of soberiety. I am coming up to four years and fortunately have no triggers. Obsession with drinking (I.e.triggers) does go away with the right program. My obsession was removed from me six months in to my soberiety. Thank you for sharing your story.

Alcohol is the great deceiver, it gives the illusion that it is relaxing, calming, rewarding and empowering but it isn't any of these things. There are no pluses to drinking all it will do is take everything away from you and leave you with an emptiness that can only be replenished with more alcohol.

[@colindavis2113]

Thank you for this. Been struggling trying to get sober for the last 1 1/2 years and was sober from kratom and alcohol for 7 weeks and relapsed for the last 2. Been really in the dumps the last few days and lost/concerned for my future, but I know if I keep trying I’m going to nail it and things will get better one day and this helped remind me of that, so thank you again 🙏

Thank you for sharing, I have always gone through bouts of sobriety but am kicking alcohol for good. Over 4 months sober--it helps to keep plenty of non-alcoholic beverages in my fridge [Canada Dry, Fresca, Clear American] so that I'm never thirsty!

Wow, loved this video, everything that was said makes so much sense and I can relate to. Triggers and one day at a time is what mostly stood out for me. I had amazing times on triple vodkas and red bull, but also crashed my Bmw through a house wall and nearly ended up in their swimming pool. And no, insurance didn't pay, I was wasted. Currently in AA, really enjoying and loving sobriety. Do what works for you, good luck and much love to all 💖

[@herecomesthecrimsonchin239]

great video i've been sober for about 3 months now and truly never felt better. the hardest part is giving up "friends" who you only interact with in the types of situations where drugs and/or alcohol are involved. some will understand and be happy for you others will try to peer pressure you into falling back into your old ways. those are the ones you must cut out in order to be successful with sobriety.

[@johnelliott5923]

Well I’m not tempted anymore. Drinking repulses me! I’m so happy for you. Drinking is always here and what helps me is staying away from drinkers which is most of America so I would go into the woods to get away from that life style . Love her!

You are wonderful and you are doing so well. I understand everything you've said and I just want to say.....I hope you have a great life...... you are absolutely doing the right thing and something has just come to me......

And from what you say and the way you are saying it... it sounds like you're doing that. Thankyou for your honestly I really like it

[@migslist909]

Saying I’ve watched thousands of these is def an exaggeration. I have watched hundreds. Never really said “let me put these vids on for help”. I like listening to stories and stories of people overcoming addictions are some of my favorites. I’m fighting a heroin addiction myself so I can relate. Normal lay down. Pushed play on this one. Sounded interesting like most, alittle worried about the length at first. As soon as you started on “step 1” you snapped me out of my cloud. If not the best I’ve seen then def top 3. Bless you. Still on lesson 4, gonna have to rewind a little but that’s kool. I knew all these but the way you put it woke something in me. I love you. Thank you

[@markg.4246]

Speaking from experience, our focus cannot be “not drinking”! That is living in the problem. The compulsion, or temptation to drink will be replaced by the development of a spiritual condition. In other words, “getting outside of ourselves”. Alcohol is NOT the root problem, I am! After almost twenty six years of continuous sobriety “drinking” is not a part of my consciousness. Why?...because I live in the “solution”! Best wishes!

[@johnelliott5923]

Lost almost every drinking buddy I had. When you quit and people know you think you have a problem they have to look at themselves and they have been drinking rite next to you!

[@Ninja1980]

Great video! All 6 reasons are something I expected. I am 18 months sober and can relate to everything you said. The biggest thing I had to learn when getting sober was that alcohol was bringing nothing positive to my life. Everything I was doing could be accomplished without alcohol and nothing would be taken from the situation. Once I accepted that, it was much easier to stop. Congratulations on 6 years (hopefully it is 9 years now!)!!! It is also so true to just take it one day at a time. One step seems like nothing, but string together a thousand steps and you've gone somewhere. :)

[@positivelypresent]

Ninja1980 9 years and counting! 🙌🏻 Congrats on 18 months!!

[@billybobobenner]

Thanks Dani, it's great to listen to you sharing your experiences. I'm 5 months in, and the advice about reminding myself why I enjoy sobriety, like waking up with a clear head each morning, and why I'm actively choosing it again today, and not romanticising my drinking past, really resonates with me. Many thanks once again. :-)

Sobriety: "lots of loneliness" "lots of cravings" "isolation" "lost friends" "you have to decline things" "no outlet for emotions" "scarily real" "still a challenge" "no escape" "very hard" "gotta learn how to cope" "you will be surrounded by triggers" "feel like I'm missing out" "you may need to walk out of weddings". How about an alternative...moderation. No buying booze to bring home. I repeat, no buying alcohol to bring home. If you're out with friends, have one, or two. . At a wedding? Have a drink. At home alone? NO drinking. Sunday afternoon watching Netflix? No drinking. Friend comes over and brings a bottle of wine...have a glass -- whatever is leftover, they bring with them

You are soooo strong! Wow. I have a couple questions, if you have any time to answer. First, have your parents or extended family struggled with substance abuse or other addictions? And second, to give some background I'm experimenting with the idea of a sober 2020 (so far so good!) but the idea of forever is sooo daunting; did you ever consider something like that and then just continue on one day at a time? And regardless, howwwww.... how do you stop for good? That's a loaded question, and yes a red flag, I'm just curious. I can't imagine the day I'd be six years (now ten!!!!) sober. Good for you, and thanks for sharing. Also, your pup is super cute. (:

[@positivelypresent]

Proactive Resilience Hi! 1. yes, most people in my family struggle... 2. Definitely one day at a time. Even 9.5 years sober, “forever” still can overwhelm me, so I focus on each day instead. If you do it that way, it becomes easier for sure. Check out my video on staying sober during the holidays for tips that might help anytime!
