Watching this video also helped confirm my decision, thanks Steven! Keep up the great content and all the best into 2025!

Good luck to everyone trying to either cut down or ditch alcohol altogether. I was never an heavy drinker but alcohol caused problems in my relationship due to its effects. If I was in company and the mood was pleasant I joined in. If the mood was aggressive I joined in. Something had to give and I realised I loved my girlfriend of 13 years more than alcohol. I couldn’t have both. I gave up 15 months ago and I can’t believe how healthy and contented I feel. Go for it Happy New Year

Just wanted to say thanks for all the effort you put into your channel. I watch your videos every day and they help remind me daily that alcohol really isn't worth it. I had my first sober Christmas in years thanks to you and plan on being sober for new years too. You are a very relatable and likable person, so please keep the vids coming as I'm sure they help many others out. I must add that i'm not 100% sober just yet, but I've cut down from binge drinking from once a week, to having a maximum 2-3 drinks just one day a month, since September. I would eventually like to kick it for good but I'm struggling a bit with the events with the lads where most of the guys are big drinkers - unfortunately avoiding these events is my only defense at the moment, as I still feel that I can't say no on those occasions just yet. I have however done more and more different types of events sober and I am gaining more confidence that I don't need the booze to have fun. Just need to work on a plan to cut out that one day a month now. Happy new year to you and your family, and thanks again for everything! 🙏🙌

I've not long got back from Tenerife after six weeks where drink is easy to come by,but been chatting with someone named Victoria who lives in New York and spoken on the phone many times and on facetime and we decided just to meet up in Tenerife this Christmas because life's to short,so we did and when you meet someone in person for the first time its a bit nerve racking which it was for both of us,but everything went fine and then she told me on one evening out which she had never told me before, because she was so embarrassed to say, that her dad was alcoholic and destroyed her life and her mom's whilst i was sat there with a pint in my hand,so i walked down the steps to the road and poured that pint away and not had a alcoholic drink since, because i don't want her to go through the same again with me being alcoholic or was but not anymore.and it's 💯 true you feel a lot better for it and proud in away 👍

My Dad told me he used to drink Rock and Rye. Rock candy and rye whiskey. He gave me the candy when the bottle was empty. I don't remember. I do remember communion at church. Port wine and the little round wafers that got stuck on the roof of my mouth. It was just a small portion of wine, but felt so good going down my throat. Jesus turning water into wine. The wine at the Last Supper. If this is what faith is, I am all for it. It was much later that the Devil can quote scripture.

Here is a comment to all you problem drinkers, alcoholics and people who are in denial about their drinking. Today and tonight New Years Eve 2025 decide once and for all this is the last day you are trying to blot out REALITY!!!!! because that is what you are doing. After many times of going dry for a while then going back on it, I decided to choose New Years Eve as my last day of drinking alcohol, that was 27 years ago tomorrow New Years Day. It was my New Years Resolution. I got smashed New Years Eve started in the day time, then New Years Day was the first day of sobriety. It will be one of the hardest if not the hardest thing you will ever do. You have to be ruthless on how much you want to give it up. Think of all the misery and the money and time you are wasting stuck in the walls of a pub. There is a life out there, use it. Think of all the misery you cause to others as well. Start the New Year SOBER!!!!! and stay that way, prove it to YOURSELF! above anything else. Here is the MASSIVE! thing that cracked it for me and I’ll put it in capital letters YOU CANNOT HAVE ONE SIP OF ALCOHOL EVER AGAIN! THAT IS BRUTAL! BUT!!!!!! IT’S THE ONLY WAY TO DO IT. YOU ARE ONE SIP AWAY TO DISASTER AND MISERY AGAIN!!!!! IT’S UP TO YOU!!!!! NO ONE ELSE!!!!! IT CAN BE DONE! I DID IT!!!!!
