    If someone says "You used to be more fun when you drank" to me, I say "You used to be more fun, and interesting when I drank!" 😂. This video was GREAT. Thank you Jae!!

    Thanks for such a comprehensive lesson!! I learned a very important lesson I'd like to share.... In failing to recognize my own value, I set myself up for people-pleasing/co-dependent behavior. I sacrificed my own boundaries (lit myself on fire to keep other people warm), and doomed myself and the people I wanted to take care of to feeling my resentment. That resentment led to drinking and the drinking led to self recriminations and even more undervaluing myself... And the cycle continued. Healthy boundaries are a balance of my own needs and the needs of others. In honoring my boundaries, I PROTECT MY LOVED ONES from my resentment. The Golden Rule really should be: "Do unto yourself as you would have others do unto you".

(Or maybe I was still in a bit of a fog and didn't really absorb it all the first time around!) But I definitely see areas that need to be locked down in order to deal with all the ups and downs of sobriety.

    This video was an eye opener, especially points 1 & 2. I used to be that guy. I used to take pride in making my own decisions and going my own way. Somewhere along the line I lost that confidence and started to lean on the "comfort" and companionship that alcohol brought me. Not sure where exactly that change ocurred or why, but I need to find the old me. It'll be something I bring up in my next therapy session. This video was very though provoking and enlightening for me. Thank you.

    Maaan, personal boundaries is my way of life. It seems to me people suppose I'm a crazy sociopath or conceited sometimes. That's why binge drinking wasn't something that had to do with my social life. But yeah, sometimes people freak out when I order tea or coffee or water instead of beer or wine, still, luckily, I haven't had an episode of pressure or anything. Everything is enjoyable with the right people and/or with the set purpose. Haven't had such a blast playing concerts with well-prepared set!🥳

    More great advice. Going low contact/using the gray rock approach started my recovery. I had seven weeks of sobriety--still do--but my latest slip a few days ago, was because tending boundaries can be exhausting, dealing with family who are relentless trying to be enmeshed. I'm back on track with no contact 🥰

    Don't say "That's okay", when it ISN'T okay. I have learned that the habit of saying "That's okay" when someone apologizes for a behavior or treatment that I don't want repeated, gives the wrong message, and doesn't contribute to well-defined boundary-keeping.

      I've had to practice discipline plenty in the comments myself. it's certainly easier to just ignore and or block, especially when people are acting toxic!
      Ah, beautiful music! No sense in letting it sit around unfinished right? I'm happy to hear that you're going to work on removing the creative obstacles, and put the pedal to the metal!

    "You teach people how to treat you". said the famous counselor who has appeared on tv a million times.
    In other words, if you tolerate emotional crap and other mental trash being dumped on you, it will happen over and over.
    If you say "That is not acceptable. Say that thought another way " you have signaled that you want to be spoken to in a more polite, respectful way.
    The other person may think that you are too timid and scared to reject their rudeness. Prove them wrong.

    12:24 My sobriety has now shown me that my girlfriend & I are so done...isn't that ironic 🤨...as a footnote, I'm editing this post to say that she is a straight up Energy Vampire and has been intent on derailing my sobriety as well as disrespecting my adult daughter when she visits me (now that I'm sober.) Needless to say, my new personal boundry is ignoring my girlfriend until I soon move out of her apartment.
