"Don't Play with Fire": Once an Alcoholic, Now Helping Alcoholics Recover | The Lungleng Show

[@Andygawai]

Thanks! I see your podcast as a revolution for Naga youth. Thank you for bringing us guidance and encouragement through your content. Love and prayers ❤

[@thelunglengshow]

Thank you, Andy. We truly appreciate your gift and thought.

[@SumiNaga-A]

​@@thelunglengshow ​ So far THE BEST EPISODE. Motivational, emotional, inspirational, intellect etc .... All the essence that Nagas need to acquire today is here. 👏👏 Expecting more inspiring people like Imlisungkum Jamir on your show rather than those individuals who are popular yet they have no positive impact in our society. When you invite people like IMLI on your show .... Definitely , it would have a massive impact in our society. Our churches still regard those alcoholics as if they are the only sinners in this world. Thank you IMLI. Kindly reform the mindset of the church on Alcoholics.

[@ChangBoss-qh2ps]

Mr lungleng i honestly very thankful to you for previous talk show on NLTP act..MR any planning to host talk show for all the naga political groups to discuss on taxation..i know it will be difficult to manage because you have to booked conference hall if they willing to attend... Your show always give me TIPS...❤

My dad was an alcoholic in the early 80s and 90s. My Mom was facing so many hardships which cannot be explained. We were not able to pay school fee, Tukan baki and house rent on time. It was during these days that Uncle Sungkum suggested my Dad to go to Mumbai Rehab with the help of Kripa foundation for Six months in 1998. It is all God's grace that my Dad is clean for almost 25 years. He never touched alcohol after his return from Mumbai. Many of my Dad's friend has passed away but due to God's grace and Uncle Sungkum and Kripa foundation help at the right Time healed my Dads alcohol addiction and our family is ever grateful to Him forever.

[@Theriddle.]

I was an alcohol addict and a chain smoker for 6 years during my teenage life. God delivered me from my addictions and I have committed my life to serve Him till my last breath. The joy and peace that I have now is immeasurable❤ To all those who are struggling with addictions, it’s never too late, make a decision now and hold on to God. I’m whispering a prayer for all of you🙏🏻 All glory to God.

[@Hawa_Chapal]

Alcohol heightens the desire, but kills the performance.

[@baracudaboom199]

Praise the Lord!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@Uncle-Kokai-Taka]

I really appreciated your thoughtful comments. They were incredibly insightful and had a profound impact on me. Thank you for sharing such valuable perspectives.

[@JanNienu-f1l]

Imli, I'm watching you from California. I remember our LFS days. So proud of you, my friend. Thank you for bringing a wealth of information through your own personal experience. Thank you for your contribution to our Naga society. God bless, and let's connect. Blessings to your ministry

[@nobodycares3953]

As a Naga youth in late 20s now, I have been a moderate-high level alcoholic especially since class 11 upto my MA. But one fortunate thing that happened to me in recent years was that, I suddenly developed interest in Philosophy. And I started watching and reading Philosophy materials for quite a long time which radically questioned the core of my existence and then Existential crisis kicked in.. but this whole skepticism about life later made me read Bible just in search for some hope and meaning.. and the Book Ecclesiastes aptly resonated with my Philosophy which finally gave me some hope and faith for better Future by the love of God. Dear men, nobody's gonna save us. People can lend support but to transform is solely upon one's will. Even God's love will have effect on our life only if we repent from sins and seek forgiveness. Also speaking from my experience, young people should really embrace Philosophy.. it will make you stand apart from the mindless crowd.

[@SumiNaga19]

Check out Derek Prince brother

[@taotree4097]

This interview is profoundly evocative & beautifully unsettling, serving as a gentle yet clarion call to the church. You have unveiled the significant responsibility of offering healing & hope while saving lives. Thanks, TLS & Jamir Sir.

[@Papa-lx7fs]

My father wàs also an alcoholic. The pain and shame that we have to bear was too much; some of my brothers also got addicted to drug and alcohol. But through the continuous prayer from my mother and love from God we were able to escape all this bad habits. Let me break this fact to you brothers. My father did not start drinking to make us suffer or hurt us, but drinking alcohol from time to time gradually create gap in the family, and he start losing control over his life which inturn start hurting us emotionally and physically. Some may say they are drinking moderately and may give some excuses, but it will catch up to you, brothers. Best not to drink. If you are lonely, frustrate,worried,down,happy etc seek out God, not alcohol.

[@Khrukusdiary]

My father was also a hardcore alcoholic....my dad was a kohima Don durings 80s...he and his gang will be bossing all around kohima dimapur..shillong those day's 😂 But as time goes by the family began to face hard times..especially Mom.. But prasie God...one church Member(Home Evangelist) He didn't give up on Dad and kept sharing the Love of God to Dad..and Now He had overcome all this...and Now He tries His best to share the love Of God to the people around..😊

[@meyiasung]

Couldn't agree more with sir Sungkum on his suggestion that the church and the government should come together and work on this issue... I pray that one day it will come into reality🙏🏻

[@kuotsuthonyusou1623]

Sir Sungkum, you're doing a wonderful job for the society. A rare gift which many of us don't. Keep it up. God bless.

Thank you sir. Our society need this now more than ever.

[@benj1827]

He's a very humble good man

[@youngrose9679]

addiction doesn't apply with the peer pressure. It is the person's individual responsible for the addiction. My views....

[@surajitboro9357]

I meet some of alcoholics anonymous members from Mokokchung at manali convention last year.

[@temjensuneplongchar4469]

As a researcher in Alcoholics Anonymous groups, i find this very informative. Thank you

Thank you, Lungleng show!

[@sashimenjamir3973]

I'm happy to see your show going better & better bro, I appreciate & respect your effort... keep up & many best wishes sending your way... waiting to learn more in coming days.... 👍

[@rkhusoh]

Why everyone is avoiding the problem of underage drinking in our society today? The real problem with nltp act is the young ones get introduced to alcohol at very early age. The elders are all oblivious or just turning a blind eye. Take a reality check everybody, your little angel daughter/neice and talented son/nephew is most probably getting the taste of alcohol currently! How are we allowing them access to alcohol? Ask yourselves?

[@arjunadivideos3677]

All your works are good, Mr Lungleng

[@RinnganungRamrar]

This is definitely a different realm that you are venturing....

[@menyiachusah1626]

Very insightful. May God continue to bless both of you. ✨

[@AchumKodyuo]

Addiction is not a disease to be cured, but It can be controlled. Worth watching.

[@sedeweawe4368]

Brother you don't know about addiction

[@AchumKodyuo]

@@sedeweawe4368 I'm battling addiction brother. I'm a Recovering addict.

[@AchumKodyuo]

@@sedeweawe4368 I'm a recovering addict,brother . But I can't say I am cured from the disease, I'm just controlling to stay away from the substance.

[@Sohitep]

Nice watching thank you both

[@youngrose9679]

This show will go a long way. Congrats

[@SethVs-r2o]

Acknowledgeable & helpful discussion thnk to both of you

[@aticknekong5296]

..so true when he said that bck then church treated the addicts/alcoholics worst than the devils. Pastors, deacons, churchmen etc would just ignore whenever & wherever they meet those addicts.....but to those so called "good guys" they'd stretch their arms wide, hug 'em or shake hands with never stopping smiles and be like, "ayaahaa, bhal asey na, bhai? Apni nishina bhal manu lok paa toh bishi khusi asey dey. Mutu-davai khaha khan toh khin laki sey. Tai khan ketoh kotha bi nakuri bi dey. Saitan asey aru husher kuribi dey, bhai" 👊👊👊. Whether the church were aware or not that addictions was a disease bck then, the main duty of the church is to reach out to those "lost souls" and save 'em. But that's one area where our churches totally failed....miserably😢...

[@kc5881]

After listening to the points of indicator of being an addict,I think I'm also addict 🙃

[@odyuotim3712]

Thank you

The Real Superman

[@l.moamanenimchen7061]

Please continue having more interaction with the first party. Churches are the third party.

[@baracudaboom199]

I strongly advise against repealing the act. The immediate consequence of lifting the ban would be the proliferation of liquor shops throughout our towns and villages, exacerbating the existing issues. The government has failed to effectively address this concern. If the law remains in place, what measures is the government taking to prevent the influx of liquor into the state? It is crucial to regulate the law effectively. The consumption of alcohol has far-reaching consequences, including health implications, socio-economic problems and financial burdens on families. The question of whether to lift the act is not a valid one; instead, we should focus on enforcing and regulating the law to mitigate its negative impacts.

[@xenderalex1752]

I also there as an addict in kripa foundation kohima under Mr, abu and dr, ngullie psychiatric for three months but the substance addiction don't let go of me... 😪 yet I feel happy some ppl like me is sober and come out of addition❤

[@xenderalex1752]

It's also true that the addict face social stigma and that's more harmful than the of substance abuse... give a chance and let live 🙏

[@AkumLemla]

Super hero 👏

[@lepdenjamir1442]

It takes courage to accept yourself as an alcoholic or an addict. The first step to rehabilitation is to accept that you are an addict and you need help...

[@mike87232]

Church on the total prohition without really studying the case is nonsense. Let the church open up means for the affected ones to rehabilitate and not consider it as a taboo.

[@benjongakumlongchar3409]

Worth watching 😎

[@graphicsor]

It's all in your mentality on how you control your habit of drinking, taking too seriously will only worsen it

[@m.ychusahongang]

Very informative

[@medosalethuphre]

Very important issue alcohol should not be encouraged

They even sound similar and yes the are biological brothers

[@benj1827]

Even me I feel so concerned for my alcoholic relatives and all drunkards in general. Many of them are nice people but it's only thier addiction problem. I see guys going in groups to drink in the mornings. I don't know why alcohol is put in such a high pedestal. People seem to worship and value it too much. Like if you drink, you think you're cool and you think you fit in to your friends circle more easily and those who don't drink are condemned . And for many , its like a lack of self control or wanting to be kind of edgy like. Our mindset need to change . Like you said in the discussion, all forces need to join and play thier own parts effectively. Adulterated alcohol should be strictly banned. And church and various societies should always come up with counseling programs for the alcoholics .

[@L.SunepOzukum]

Hopefully many alcoholics will follow the wisdom of Mr. Sungkum

[@Guns_n_cactus]

Very true pastor!!

[@VezoNyekha-tp1pj]

Addiction is like trying to explain the different colours to a blind person....

[@aman.bhai82-e9m]

Exactly 💯

[@Komorebineeded]

Important issue

[@bonmai007]

I'm listening

[@recoverfiles3887]

In my humble opinion i strongly believe liquor should be made legal. Regardless of whether it is made legal or not, people are still going to buy it either from here or Assam. It's not like people will be forced to consume it because of its legalisation. I would rather choose to support legalization of liquor by which citizens will be able to buy it at a much cheaper rate rather than seeing people die because of adulterated alcohols which are also sold at an increased price. Do share ur opinions as well.

[@chenithungjami140]

Yes to the point..

[@shanyan2195]

I just wondered why Naga people trying to flow river of alcohol in Nagaland 😮

Can't u see it's flowing ever since!?

Mr Imlisungkum said don't play with 🔥 fire, which is the fire? Alcohol or NLTP act's, I think not a act's alcohol is the 🔥 fire of our human being.Sir,

[@jammyjamir7246]

Years back, in one of the churches in dmp, a woman attended a church initiated AA program. Well meaning and concerned people said she was the only woman among so many men from that church, followed by "sorom bhi lagey" She never attended any program again and lost her life to alcoholism. Our words wound them deeply, and as Mr Sungkum said, they are very perceptive. Thank you both, for this session. May it touch many lives.

[@VezoNyekha-tp1pj]

Mr bill of nagaland....

[@Kinda21]

Alcoholism weakness or sickness In my defense its weakness u know its not good u know it doesn't help U know it takes time to b addicted But stil drinks If addicted sickness is more of an appropriate term
