remember alcoholism is a serious issue and you should always see a doctor when quitting detox can be dangerous when trying on your own... go to the doctor.
NOTE This video is not meant to treat or diagnose anything... marcus and terry are not trained addiction specialist or medical professionals... remember that these are our stories to share the hope of stopping drinking with you and should not be seen as medical advice. Always see your doctor before making any medical decisions.
I recommend giving yourself a two month goal of not drinking and just see how much better you feel. You may even forget about alcohol altogether.
5 hrs after I drink, like clockwork the negative anxiety kicks in.
Sobriety is so good
My husband and I booze to have fun. But it strips your fun the entire weekend from the hangover. Then you have withdrawals until Tuesday. Vicious cycle.
Exactly 💯
100 hundred percent !
I drink Friday night and Saturday all day. I need 3-4 days to recover I am still trying to get rid of this stupid habit
So true. I’m always in the same boat. I don’t fully recover until middle of the week. Then I start feeling normal / good again. Then what do I feel like doing coming Thursday. Yup, cycle needs to stop. 🤢
This channel is criminally underrated...Should have way more viewers..

Alcohol makes me sleepy. The fun is gone with alcohol.
This is the best UTube channel ever!
I think knowing you need to quit and wanting to is a great first step.
God work 🙏🏽
6 days without a drink , these videos are therapeutic.
I'm on day 9. How are you getting on?
@@Rob-zw5qs had a few relapses. Although the relapses are becoming less of a problem and the time between them is increasing. Overall consumption is way down. My sleep last night was amazing and that has been a huge factor in this whole process. Good job keep it going!! every day sober is a win in my book.
@@danhemsworth7488 I think thats how my journey will go. Christmas will be tough
@@Rob-zw5qs Holliday's are always rough. I've been getting into burpees with David Whitten's channell. Pain seems to help, eating extremely hot food, going outside and lifting stones. It will help you get your mind off the booze I sincerely wish the best for you. Every day gets a little better despite the setbacks "relapse". My chess game is coming back too, it takes time for the system and brain to re-wire, gotta be patient it will come.
I am 37. I have been a wicked suicidal alcoholic for 20 years this year. My reason I continue to ruin my body is the same reason since the day I knew I was an alcoholic.
I simply do not see a future worth fighting for.
I went a year without alcohol. Sure I felt a lot better physically and my mind was really clear. However I however I suffer from loneliness and I saw that as a friend. It was better than being alone so I started to drink again
Alcoholics are masters at treating "loneliness" with "isolation". We're just gifted that way. The reality is...There are millions of recovering people around the world, the vast majority of which know that they can't keep their sobriety unless they share it with someone else. This is the beauty of becoming part of a recovery group...you never have to be alone again. The group of people I know are the most responsible, sincere, kind, dependable, honest, and loving human beings I've ever met. After more than 29 years of continuous sobriety, there is NO SITUATION I have encountered, that I had to face alone. I have unlimited access to people from ALL walks of life, who know what to do, whether it's a torn fingernail, or burying a loved one.
There is NOTHING standing in your way of finding a fellowship...except doing nothing. All the best to you...Mark
Thank you both. I appreciate you and your help and stories. This is a serious and baffling disease and it’s a relief to find that others understand what I experience due to alcoholism.
It's very serious but you should not call it a disease. It's not.
Thank you, for all your talks you send out!!
I am listing to you since quite a while by now and it gives me some kind of calmness, just to hearing the talk.
I was clean and sober for 23 years, I stoped when I was 21. By now I am 51, started again drinking 7 years ago.
Since than I can not stop anymore. It is much worst, then it was in my youth!
Been in 4 clinical detox and in one rehab , it never lasted long, it’s a nightmare!!
I have heavy depression, strong anxiety, can’t sleep, isolated myself and so on…by now I know where those things come from and how it developed; that helps a lot in understanding but not in resolving.
Heard you once ask for topics to speak, maybe you can talk about, I would very appreciate!!
Sorry for my not so good English, I am from Berlin Germany.
Thank you lots 🙏
Wish you luck man. I just had a friend die from drinking, it's real it will kill you. Been an eye opener. One day at a time.
AA is not for me. What are the alternatives?
So true about all the titles for mommy problems or whatever. I try to excuse my drinking because of some disorder out of many.
Gosh Andrew, you are incredible! You are part of my everyday life, your wealth of knowledge, your passion, I'm just in awe. I feel like such a hopeless case in life, so many issues, your words seem to give me some hope. I'm not anywhere near where I want to be yet but I honestly believe I can be! Thank you for your work!
Hey Holly, did you manage to get sober?
i totally get it. before i even started drinking it, it was a huge comfort to have it with me or in my hand--like a baby with a bottle!

Great video. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and the 7 triggers. The computer-loop example was also helpful in reframing negative thoughts. Thank you
This sounds a lot like self-medicating adhd with alcohol. I've noticed over the years how many of us went undiagnosed for years until sobriety
Great video. Describes me exactly. Thanks
Great informative chat 👍
You guys are great. The best on You Tube regarding this topic,thank you🙏
Thanks Terry and Marcus for another great video and what you do
Absolutely agree
Can you speak about sobriety content on youtube without being put out and still monetize
Reminds me of that Pink floyd song, we don't need no thought control
Thoughts matter. There is a war in everyone's hearts and minds until they learn to guard the heart and mind and reject the bad thoughts. Some of the things you're saying are contradictory. Yes, you will have bad thoughts, but you don't have to fight them. You simply redirect your thoughts to good or God. The thoughts don't become yours until you choose them for yourself. All good is from God. Philippians 4:8.
Without taking ACTION, your "thoughts" are worthless!
@markg.4246 Of course. Faith without works is dead, but actions begin with the thoughts, and those thoughts need to be guarded and directed in the right trajectory in order for your works to have the proper solid foundation.
"O shit, it's the booze, I better stop having that" 😂👌
Okay, great video, I'm new here. I'm incredibly distracted by the guy on the right who is looking all over the place while the other guy is talking. I can't focus. 😂
Right?! And the chair swinging. Can't cope hahahaha
@@hollysmithers6464 I can't tell if he's having a conversation or watching football 🤣
My drinking only got bad was to stop the nausea.
Stop rocking back and forth it's distracting.
I appreciate all the work and this podcast a lot. But it is very cocky and ignorant to say all freud did was "figuring out you got the hots for your mom."...
lol personally i think a lot of Freuds stuff is dangerous. i have studied a lot of it... is that his only accomplishment... no he has some good things too... but the father of modern psych.... yea i think that's a bit much to put on his theories that phrase was a summary of my thoughts on him... but we can agree to disagree on that one its just my personal thoughts.
👍👍👍❤❤❤😎😎😎
Amateurs.
If alcohol was a lie to you, why don't you tell us all why
O.k I get you now
