Note: If you want to overcome addiction then inspiration and motivation may get your started, but it is not enough to keep you going... Please do try to speak to an Addiction Specialist or therapist and look up the work of Gabor Maté, especially his book 'In The Realm of Hungry Ghosts'.
My friend Kenny faced his problems head on and went sober and in doing so discovered his way forward in life.

Started drinking at the age of 15 then started mixing it with weed and later on cocaine. Things were slowly getting worse and worse. I barely went out the house anymore except for work. And wasted almost every weekend on drinking and doing blow. I became depresssed and started to hate myself Now at the age of 25 i have finally come to the conclusion that it cannot keep going like this. I want to stay sober and have a full life. I'm 2 days sober now.

Started drinking when I was 18 years old. My 18th birthday party was my first night drunk and that was it for me. I went to university purely so that I could drink. Moved onto weed and then harder drugs. Then came the depression and mental illness. Then came the near suicide attempts. Now I'm 26 years old and I'm saying that enough is enough. Been sober for a couple of weeks now, going to keep going with it.

Gil B I was just about to go to the store and buy some alcohol but your timely comment stopped me. I have fallen off the wagon a couple of times and almost died as a result. My meds react to excessive alcohol consumption in the form of lung failure. I've gone to bed thinking I can't breathe. It's just my bipolar that gives me urges to drink, but I'm in control of my own problems and I should really do better.

Today God has restored my life, marriage, kids relationships and i started my own business 3 years ago and it is doing big things. God will move mountains but we still have to bring a shovel.. dig deep. Blessings.

I wish I watched this early last year. The past 10months brought out the worst of myself in regards to alcohol consumption and consequently reckless behaviour. I feel like I've gone so far from myself I don't even recognize myself anymore. Cried my heart out when I came to myself just recently seeing the damage I've done. Can't seem to get past the self-loathing. Luckily I have a job and managed to keep it even with my bad habits. Determined to do better for myself this year onwards. Sending love to everyone out there man.

I am over 30 days. I decided I'm not going to wake up and count my days that I havent had a drink but I'm counting my blessings instead. It makes it more positive. Because if I concentrate on the last time I had a drink it might trigger me. My blessings are my sobreity and thinking with a clear mind. Waking up happy and healthy. Reaching my goals one day at a time. My goal is to completely rid the urge of drinking. I had a thought the other day at work about how I wanted a beer. But I thought I came this far and I'm not turning back. Each day is a new day A new day to celebrate sobriety..

I've been struggling with alcohol for half my life. Almost 34. I'm tired of the same thing feeling like shit everyday. I have been sober on and off. The longest was little over a year. I seriously want this to end. I find when in sober I am better at times but it's another hell of actually dealing with your emotions. With no support, no friends I find it extremely difficult. My husband likes to drink and that is one of the biggest problems I find my self relapsing. I'm 1 month sober. You Video is very powerful. It still gives me hope.

One of the best videos I love to watch when im struggling. I wont call myself an alcoholic but I can drink like a fish at times. EVERY single time I do I always feel that shame and guilt. I sometimes take ADHD medication because I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was younger and everytime I take them I feel normal and Alive but in reality I feel guilt and shame. Its either one or the other or when it gets bad both alcohol and pills. Im making ends meet but I am sooo lost right now in life. Im 32 years old work a decent job for the past 6 years but Im still broken. I love beer and its hard for me to think I will not drink a single beer the rest of my life. I always fall but somehow pull myself out but ALWAYS fall again. Its a vicious cycle! I love this video and it gives me hope that I can change!

I wont lie. Its so fucking hard. And being Aussie and coming from an Irish, French background its what we do. Socialize and drink together. But I am back at Judo and Jiu Jitsu and trying to quit. Good luck to those quitting.

I was in the er with alcohol withdrawals. 2 days of insomnia, tremors, shakes, some hallucinations and delirious. As well has reduced liver functioning and heart problems. My anxiety was the worst it's ever bee .I went to the er and They gave me some thiamine and ativan b vitamins and pedialyte and fixed me right up. I've tried to go sober 5 times in 10 years from heavy drinking. This was the wake up call I needed. 5 days sober.

Excellent & emotionally moving short film. I wish you'd be able to make a more in-depth testimony of how Kenny took steps to get sober. We can tell from the film that he got into working out but it would be wonderful to know more details to help others. Thanks!

Ive am sober usually M-F.... Weekend is tough tho. I have gone 60 days, 30 days. I abuse it, when I am bored it seems.....Key is don't get bored. Do something with your time, working out, walking, cooking, helping a Buddy, volunteer, ride, swim, run, just stay away from booze. Be sober. It feels better daily! We deserve to be optimally healthy

I’m still young. 40 years old. But I’ll tell you from experience. I wasted part of my life. 20s and 30s on alcohol. My kids where hating me not respecting me. Why should they. I put them little guys threw hell. And my wife. She got so sick of me saying sorry everyday for my dumb stupid behavior. After all of this iv managed to keep my job. Thank god. But I say this all to say this. I’m just now being sober. It’s been 1 month and 4 days. First time in like 10 years. So now I’m feeling all my feeling and memories and most of them are heavy regret You don’t want that. It will keep you up at night. Beat you down if you let it But I’m gonna push threw this. I know I can do it. Thanks for this video. And thanks for reading. Stay safe

Excelent video, remember watching this video my first week sober , using drugs since 15 im 23 now , the las drug I quit is weed and the hardest, not trying to demonize it, im not against cannabis, but for some.people with a adictive personality and a not full developed young brain its nothing good , now 11 months later im completely sober , hitting the gym daily and chasing my dreams . keep strong.
