Absolutely loved this guys journey... I am 18 days clean today and really can feel what he talks about... the serenity, calmness and peace is unlike any drug... thank you 🙏🏽 for your share
I realized that alcohol is the basis of all the impulses to consume much of the drugs, I have not drunk for 5 months and since I made this decision I confirmed that after all, alcohol, "a legal drug", is a catalyst for the impulse to use drugs, despite to feel lucky to have never lost the mastery of my professional and family life, I always keep my humility in front of everything that is vicious because nobody is better than a vice. To all who make their testimonies on this channel I want you to know that you have all my respect for such courage, for admitting an addiction is not an easy thing. Sorry for the writing, it is translated by google. greetings to all Daniel
I couldn’t agree more, every impulse comes loose for me if I start drinking, there is a strong correlation with alcohol/ drugs at least in my brain. Well said man and I appreciate this message.
Thank you for your story. I'm 10 days opioid free today. God is good, thank you so much for this channel, it indisputably compelled me to draw the line in the sand. 32 years of circular substance abuse came down to a single word, NO and the Lord Jesus took that NO and multiplied it. For those stuck in the dark of withdrawal, God says, "we are fearfully and wonderfully made". Believer or not, your body fights for you and needs your mind as a back up, you absolutely can do this. God bless.
With crack, I think it’s true to say, “ One hit of it, can cause addiction to it.” Im so sorry that you went through this. Take good care of you, and stay Strong. Lots of Love and Respect.♥️
This is an inspirational story, I am very happy to hear it. Addiction is really a bad addiction, the sooner it is released, the better it is. Thanks for sharing this video.
Sudhanshu, Reduce negative thoughts. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts-anxiety. For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back erect, eyes closed, be still and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight with your thoughts. Slowly they will reduce and relax the mind. No deep inhalation-exhalation needed. Anytime of the day or night before sleep sit or lie down on your back and observe your breath. Be as still as possible as it reduces negative thoughts. Make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life. Best wishes Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.
Been 7 months clean. I drank until I blacked out and got alcohol poisoning 4 days ago with friends and now the urges won't leave me alone. Trying so hard to stay sober. I'll keep pushing
Damn, I relapsed on meth last night. Was only sober a few weeks but still, there's always regret attached to these substances. I'm 30 yrs old, been isolated most of my life and looks like I could be homeless again in a few weeks. Gotta just do whatever I can to rise above these habits that lead to relapse.

Thomas is a great role model for those that struggle with alcohol addiction. Speaking to someone who can actually empathize with what they're feeling is a really powerful tool for recovery. Thanks for sharing.
When one is rejected by a person who is supposed to take the parental role, su a person would be frustrated. He or she will be prone to any form of abnormality.
Had my relapse after I completed 1 year clean. Now everyday taking my dose as last dose, like tomorrow I'm not gonna do it. But everytime i do it. Still doing it. Hope tomorrow im gonna face my demons. God's will!
What an experience! you were in and out until you decided to be honest with yourself. I compliment you for the courage you had to take and faced your fears.
These type of stories are really very much inspirational for all of us.People should understand that Addiction is not the solution of any problem.And if someone is addicted then he/she think about their families and try to recover.
December 26th will be 3 years since I’m clean, I’ve done it pretty much myself, aside from help of my girl. I’ve never went through 12 steps or any na meetings, groups, detoxes. Never relapsed. One thing though I do feel alone, even after three years I feel lonely in sobriety, I don’t know if I should reach out to people that going through same thing as I am, idk if it’s too late for me starting this group or if I even belong there. I do feel very alone, because everyone who I kept around me never experienced any type of addiction so it’s hard for me to talk to them sometimes. I cut off all of my friends, everyone I grew up with, even the ones that never did any drugs or suffered from addiction. So aside from my close family members and my girlfriend I’m literally alone on this path. My family, they think my journey of getting clean is over, since I haven’t used or relapsed in 3 years but I feel like I still need at least someone to talk to who can relate to me. What do you guys think? I really need help with this situation of mine. What should I do?
Daniel Djangirov congratulations on 3 years. From my experience aa & na is a very amazing group. They welcome with open arms and it’s never too late to join.
Hello Daniel. Firstly, congratulations on staying clean, what an achievement, be proud of yourself if you can, I understand that that isn't always easy. Sobriety is lonely if you're doing this by yourself, so find a meeting or a group of some kind as feeling lonely is very normal. You can be brave and do this with others too who understand that loneliness. Of course nothing is as lonely as using but some of us need to find our path without feeling like that and find those who truly understand. We may have the most amazing family and friends which is a huge thing but having the support of a group can really put your sobriety into the right gear and set you up to being able to feel a part of the world again. Sobriety is hard, so reach out and understand that there's always someone there for you if you're willing and if you should need them. Take good care of yourself and keep reminding yourself that you're not alone and your sobriety is your achievement, you did that with will power and a strength that comes from someone who has the ability to fight for their life 💕
relapse is very common especially those who were addicted to drugs. I syrongly agree that without the help of those around them, relapse is really hard to overcome.

A lot of people could have what they had and achieved more, but they trade it all for drugs. Family, college degree, marriage, job, house, car, traveling around the world, birthday party with your children, your dignity... trade them all for drugs that last for a week.
So glad i listened to this i am starting to get clean i tried today but i took my suboxone to early and got withdraws so bad....getting them natural was never this bad im going to have to start again tomrrow

I can't ever feel as good as I did on drugs and that is very depressing. 7 months and my life's still shit. It's more then abstaining, I guess I need more help. Fml.
It's true what they say, stay single for the first yr of getting clean, I'm 7 months clean and I am scared of relapsing this relationship and moving stress is so stressful. I have no stress relief and noone to go to for comfort when we fight.. God help me, wish I believed in God lol
To avoid relapse actually first time is get rehab ,and to continue new life , it depends what's our desired,if you trully exit from it,and then your Society,and enviroment there are influence you life.
To me the need to belong is more addicting. Listening to him it is clear he just wanted a place to belong and drugs gave him that sadly. As someone who knows that the need to belong journey I understand. Drugs is always wrong but at times the reasons for it are not.
Please someone send good wishes, prayers, anything, I don't want to be addicted to porn anymore, I need help, I want to graduate, get married and have kids one day, find my own business(es), and if I don't take care of this now, none of that will happen
It seems like all of these videos make reference to a "higher power" or "god". So my question would be, does the 12 step program involve any religious ideals?
I have heard people go through that don't necessarily declare a religion. They reference "higher power" which leaves it open for personal interpretation I think.
I have 6 days clean from 7 years of opiates and heroin today. Your videos give me hope. Pray for me.
Stay strong

It's great that you have recovered. You have chosen the right facility.

Wow. This story really hit home for me. Sounds very similar to my life.
relapse is very common especially those who were addicted to drugs. I syrongly agree that without the help of those around them, relapse is really hard to overcome.
Loneliness and not proper care is cause of many severe things. Same happened with Thomas from his childhood.
I’m proud of you 🌸
Love his honesty. I thank you sir.
I am so tired of being an addict. Its so hard to find a rehab to take medicaid. I want to go to sober living away from my hometown.
Be strong, you got this.

To avoid relapse, then someone needs a good support. Also, staying away from people that can make one to abuse drug.
I just threw away 5 months clean from meth and havent to to work since i fucked up.
