Follow up from a previous video I commented on about 5 weeks ago. Heavy drinker here. I quit for 30 days recently. Then I thought I could moderate. I’m now on day 6 in a row of being drunk (drunk as I’m typing this). Time to quit again but for good this time. I have finally realized moderation just isn’t in the cards for me. I needed to see this video tonight so bad...
Glad it came at the right time my friend!
Moderation is the most impossible thing to do when it come to alcohol as a whole. I was a drinker for 14 years and I had so many attempts to moderate. Now, I'm 157 days sober and I am never going back to that garbage of a drink. I'm staying clean from now on.
Facts!
I experience the same thing, Come on! I've proven time and time again and again. That once I start drinking. I'm live a Shark with blood in the water. I simply cannot control myself. I'M DONE WITH THIS POISON!
@@brucelinton5472 I agree. Once a person who's a problematic drinker, like I was for so many years, starts back drinking again or trying to "moderate", it is like being a Shark swimming in a mix of blood and water. It's so damn creepy. Now, I'm 727 days sober - reaching 2 years this upcoming Monday. I will never go back to that bottle of poison again and/or any mind-altering substance.
You gotta be ready to start committing to sobriety. I know you can do it, and I believe in you. Just remember, take one day at a time. Any questions, I'm more than happy to answer.
40 years here. A lot. Too much
@@stevenmorris2293 Agreed. I feel you, man! As of now, coming back to this post, I've entered 850 days sober.
Alcohol actually gives you something ! Otherwise why would it be so difficult to quit for good ? It is fun to drink. It provides instant pleasure, an illusory and ephemeral relief from anxiety and responsibilities. As trivial as these benefits might be compared to all the infinitely more fulfilling things it takes away, they still exist and I feel like they should not be negated. Realizing this actually helped me in making the conscious choice to pursue the truly meaningful things of life, and sacrifice the fun of drinking to focus on their realization.
I love your channel btw
There is no such thing as moderation for addiction. People who say moderation is good for them are usually alcoholics. That is me and I am battling to stop right now. I never drank until I was 23. My entire family are alcoholics. I never thought it would be me. You throw in PTSD, a rough childhood, and social friends who drink weekly, its time bomb. "Be sober and vigilant." That is what God wants. I have seen alcohol destroy my family and many friends. I thought I could moderate, but, nope. I finally admit that I cant. This channel is a blessing to us all. Keep preaching brother. God bless you all. You all are not alone. Its a spiritual and physical battle. We all can do this together. Thanks Leon.
Awesome ti have you here brother! Thanks a lot.
He is our real bro
He is the right mentor I ever met
Keep striving to improve your health
The most precious thing we have is time, so one thing about drinking is wasting time. Did you notice the fact that Men in movies have 'fun' only when they drink or do some kind of drug? I agree that the best way to procede is to look at things head on and more attuned to reality as possible. And apart from making you hyper and anesthetising you, when you get down from the high of alcohol fumes you get back to normal. So there is not much meaning in being hyper and anesthetised all the time. We are human beings, we are not alcohol bottles walking around 😆
This hits the nail on the head for me. Relapsed yesterday after 30 days sober. Feeling like sh*t now.
Thank you for making these videos. Very inspirational. I just went through 30 days of not drinking and then slowly thinking I can moderate it it just didn’t work
Thank you, i needed this video!
Great video!👍
Thanks for the point about will power. I agree. One thing that helps me is focusing on my achievements., Much like your point of focusing toward a positive. 💯
Love that! Thanks a lot Benjamin
You know fear is a great motivator to help you stop doing or consuming something unhealthy. I used to drink coke every day by the gallon. Then one day I read an article about the dangers of drinking coke which actually scared the shit out of me. It meant that I stopped and switched to drinking juice.
I dont think moderation works especially with things you really like. It's like that with me and eating. I really had to discipline myself to go on a calorie deficit and when I saw the results, I.e a six pack it really motivated me.
The problem with alcohol is it's a temporary fix for your problems. Long term it can do a lot of damage, to your liver, ages you, and lowers testosterone in men.
Nice comment Tony! And good to hear from you.
Juice has the same sugar content. Go for water 😊👍
This channel is really useful for me mate I'm 19 years old and relate to a lot you say
Glad to hear it! Thanks a lot!
Great vid thanks leon
Very welcome
Thank You Sober Leon.
You're welcome!
I'm 93 days alcohol free and have no desire to moderate either. I'm trying to experience life without the poison.
Previous heavy drinkers who stopped drinking should not get so comfortable and think they can moderate. That one or two drinks could led you right back to escalating habitual drinking.
❤️ greatttttt ka p’Leon
You rock Aor!
Hey Leon, thanks for the great video. After years of on again off again drinking, I finally quit for good
It took jail lol (hey it takes what it takes)
Why do I stay sober? Sober is better, much better
Good luck to you mate stay off it
Some people can do moderation no problem...But if you can't....You have to stop....I have always been a moderation person....But stopping is great...
I really do wonder why some people are able to enjoy a few glasses of wine and I can not. I'm also back at square one right now, regretting what I did during my drunk night. I've been sober for more than 100 days and it was awesome.... then depression kicked in and I had so much stress at work that I couldn't be bothered about myself. The regrets, the shame the next day... I tell you it's so not worth it, it's like your brain got hijacked for one night and you're just making stupid, really stupid decisions!
Some people are born with a genetic quirk that makes them become addicted to alcohol much more slowly than usual
Hey love your spirit we need to talk I turn 55 on Mother's day I stopped drinking for 17 years plus here I could never seem to commit I don't know what to do now it seems like I'm.
What did you end up doing?
I could 75% of the time….. it was the other 25%that made my life so miserable. The anxiety just isn’t worth it. I lived the best 3 yrs of my with out alcohol.
Day 349 here. Great video Leon. Happy birthday to your girl. ( we know the balloons are really yours.... ha ha). Peace!
Haha! What are you like! Are we connected on FB btw? I can't remember.
@@LeonSylvester Yo....I'm probably the only person in the world not on FB. I quit Instagram and Twitter when I stopped drinking (and never was on FB)
Keep up the good work
Leon my problem is I actually like drinking despite all the problems it causes. I know it’s wrong to think like that. Almost 3 weeks no booze
Great work on getting to 3 weeks
why is the camera jumping back and forth
Nope , I only go for girls , I remind myself everyday , if I drink any I will only lose my concentrate focus and money , so I wont get type of girls I really want
hello dude
What's up Gwin!
if you can't moderate, don't try to. :)
Word bro!
It’s not possible. I tried it now I drink 6 beers a day
