I cannot stop once I’ve started. I never voluntarily drink - it’s social, but then I end up drinking 20-30 units. When binging I do stupid risky stuff. I just can’t live with the idea of the rest of my life being completely sober. How do you enjoy yourself? Read a book? How do you get the release from the grind of boring life. At least when I binge, I feel free, I feel numb. I am flying above my worries. The idea of being stuck in the real world forever....so hard.

[@RaferJeffersonIII]

Rock-E Oldboy so glad it’s not just me, brother of liver destruction. I agreed with my wife to quit for good. I realised the “fun” of drinking is an illusion - all my problems come from it

[@getTheSchmack]

this captured everything I feel on the topic..

[@ChemicalOrbit]

Buy a motor cycle bro

[@luisfelipenicodemus2055]

same with me... I can pass the week without but on weekends I just put all to waste... I become bored, I got two months sober and sociability is boring

[@baldersn4474]

Get sober amd chsmgd your 'boring' life...? Change your career get a hobby etc..

[@opencurtin]

12 months sober binge drinking was my problem , you have to quit drinking if you binge drink and you wake up the next day not knowing what went on the night before.

[@lovealways7861]

Congrats, I am already achieving this path of sobrity. My plan is to stay home for a month, then enroll in the gym after that as I wouldn’t have time to even go out in Oct as I am starting school.

[@cameronclare5084]

When I start drinking I can't stop because the alcohol fills up the horrible empty void inside me and when I sober up the void glares me in the face with a vengeance.

[@NikkiPotnick80]

I am off from work for two weeks starting on April 2nd and that's when I plan to start my detox and quit. Kevin's videos really help motivate me. Wish me luck!

[@josephdugdale4150]

Good luck pal, it might be difficult to start with but it'll be so worth it in a few weeks

[@NikkiPotnick80]

Thank you all so much. I am looking forward to the end result. I know the first couple days are going to hurt.

[@josephdugdale4150]

[@r.a.5874]

Thank you so much! Love that you are hiking while explaining all this :)

[@constantdoodle32]

I only remember a handful of weekends that I was sober since I was 16 years old. I'm 31 now. I drank really heavily this past weekend and I think I got one of those "signs". I was one of the ones that goes in hard then tries to moderate because I make stupid decisions. Something inside me was always saying, "you've just got to stop altogether" and I really believe it. I have to just quit.

[@franco7928]

Some people can stop after a few drinks, I can't. Just keep on until I wake up after passing out in the car somewhere on on my couch!

[@jajdude]

Hungover today from a 4 - day binge, it was my first drinking in two years. Now to get back to more healthy living as soon as this poison leaves me. Nasty stuff.

[@opencurtin]

It must have been awful drinking again after 2 years sober I hope ur back sober again !!!

[@richheart9346]

I noticed a pattern in my drinking was abstinence then moderation then it would snowball into a binge where I was just poisoning myself by drinking from morning until I'd pass out. I'd keep drinking because I was afraid to go through the hellish withdrawals. Your videos are very helpful. I get more out of them than AA. Thanks

[@craighall2819]

That's how I feel I'm abit of a gym junky and I feel guilty for a week after for poisoning myself but this bloke has made me think you can only belt ya head against a wall for so long just got to stop alltogeather

[@francisreaperbikingrunning2989]

Same here sometimes i could do it for months straight and snowball into a 4 day binge! Getting really wasted stop for a week binge for 2 days....i just want it to stop for good damn it

Great video I had about 10 years sober and now Im binge drinking again like 1-2 times per month I hate it !! I wanna stop forever.

[@chali-kg2fn]

I went to jail for a year after 3rd dwi I have been sober since my arrest it's been 4 years I'm a different and a better person

[@corvette1999100]

Great vid Kevin!

[@Dannigom]

thanks, i know this is a 4 year old video but i really needed to hear this tonight

[@25forester]

Thanks again Kevin

[@Seancmccormick]

Great video! You're right. Binge drinking is just the long term drinkers way of getting that buzz one craves. My issue now though is learning how to deal with the day to day problems. I use to just self medicate through everything. Now, I actually have to plug in and deal with it all. Any advice on coping with problems sober? ATB Sean

[@cloyzetheran]

PTSD can lead to drinking to.oblivion... my case in point

[@dean6125]

definately, through self medicating really :-(

[@jenniferm2450]

[@BigBlackBe4r]

Be careful. If it gets worse, STOP!

[@mohammedatiq6913]

I love u bro drinking to oblivion now want to stop need advice

[@chalkycliff4068]

I need some help, the wife is not happy but is saying I am drinking a bit too much. Beers every couple of nights a week and weekend and if there is some wine left in the house or beer left over I clean them out. Am worried this could be start of a problem how can I beat this?

[@uncleshan]

subbed. thanks

[@coolkid8865]

I'm enjoying your videos, that looks like very dry country you are walking through, are you in Spain?

[@sumfattytuna1]

I have no problem not drinking for large periods of time, but i guess its also correlated with how often i go out. I probably do need to try going out without drinking and get used to that in order to master this quality.

[@mateialexandru3280]

Binge drinking is mostly social drinking so avoiding those people that also binge drink is important as well. That friend or relative or whatever, I am hungover from drinking last night and got to figure out and really avoid the people that I binge drink with.

[@pacmanmum]

I never wanted to be hungover again then I thought I could have a few beers then time stood still and I couldn’t face the sobering up bit,so when I had stopped I went to bed ,slept for about an hour then awake all night then in morning puked three times ,banging headache, restless ,anxious tired ,weak,dehydrated ,couldn’t get my internet shopping in ,luckily someone was in the house to help me .I helped put it away but kept nearly fainting, I counted my cans the next day thinking I had had seven Amstel ,and two cans lemonade which I mixed with port ,and I was feeling bad to see I had eight cans .I’m not doing it anymore ,gonna be very difficult, I did three weeks and was getting good sleep ,up till the binge drink .😢my own fault

[@alm6356]

I have stopped drinking altogether because I binged so much... My partner isn't helping tho, for instance yesterday she mentioned she got a taxi home weeks ago because the shopping was heavier because she had my cans of beer .... can't seem to win if I'm drinking or not. It's upset me to say the least cause I'm doing my best and feel really good but she doesn't seem to be on my side yet again.

[@constantdoodle32]

You need to have a serious talk with this person and let them know this is really important to you. If they don't listen then you should think seriously about continuing the relationship and maybe move on.

[@mikefor7458]

I have that.. shakes .. of I stop drinking completely I shake like I'm possessed by a demon.. bim scared . What to do

[@craighall2819]

Am i piss weak if i have 1 last drink on my 50th I was going to make that the last day it's only in December SHIT. YEAH I'm piss weak lol but I will stop after that thanks for your video has giving me inspiration

[@phxrsx]

I was piss drunk and didn’t even realize I stopped at 2 more bars.

[@jills2349]

trying to figure out the math for explanation of what a binge is considered ?

[@picklespip9213]

I drink about 2 pints a week but about once a month I drink way too much and I cant stop. I don't know where I am or what I am doing, I talk absolute nonsense and embarrass myself, my partner worries about me getting home safe. I had PTSD from childhood trauma but I have been being treated, I also may have ADHD. When I have the first sip I get a rush of like a rediculous high. I am hungover right now hating myself. I feel so hopeless

[@cloyzetheran]

Help me

[@danmagoo]

Too much math! This is why it's easier to just quit altogether.

[@opencurtin]

Its actually relevant to what is considered acceptable units for a week , I'd drink all my designated units for 3 weeks in one nights binge , and thats how I drunk binge every Saturday night like a lot of people I suppose and then you think you dont have a problem because you dont touch a drop during the week .

[@neil7236]

Shame it's the norm in the UK..I'm 10 days sober and 46 years old don't want to go back to weekend binge drinking and cocaine any more..Been doing it most weekends since I was 17..

[@normalguy7898]

How are you going Neil?

[@kevinsmith5318]

Take Naltrexone an hour before you drink...

[@kermitTheFrog466]

i am thinking of trying this as i go crazy, can drink like 15 pints even :-( hate it. where can you get naltrexone from ?

Bro Naltrexone really helps?

@@yogensharma5721 this is an old thread i thought i would comment - i think it takes the buzz/euphoria/cravings away then you would drink less i think. I prefer the give up altogether route, but this drug maybe helpful for this?

Im really trying to quit! No excuses but the Alcohol Help team told me the government guide lines are BS! 1 2 units a week or whatever! I've got to do this myself! Help from professionals have told me it's false information! I know what to do! Don't see the point in seeing people that don't know left from right! I know me! I know Stop!
