I apologize for the filter guys!! 🤦🏻♂️I did not know I had that filter applied till after it was finished editing!!! Love y’all, stay safe and stay sober! 🙏🏻💯
@@DATONEGAMER25 when I was drinking yes it definitely was lol, marsh mellow man. Not in the beginning of course, but the later years. Also thanks so much 🙏🏻
When I rewatch I remember every scene, but could not tell you what will follow next to save my life. Interestingly it wasn't like that in the beginning of my drinking career. I always could remember plots of movies I watched previous night with the same amount of alcohol. There's some real brain damage at play.
Since I've given up drinking I have a spotless house and car (I've replaced drinking with incessent cleaning), a much emptier recycling bin, and a healthier bank balance. I gave up smoking at the same time. My health is improving and I'm super focussed on work. It's a win, win.
Great to see you! I was worried! Regarding negativity. You have to work your own program. People who judge your recovery by how they work theirs has missed the point. I said this in my first comment. My only is advice is NEVER, EVER LET YOURSELF BECOME UNGRATEFUL! Always good to see you.
I agree 💯 everyone is an addict one way or another (workaholic etc) my former usual goto was alcohol (which is a drug) I hit NA meetings occasionally...liking yr content...were on same page...one day at a time brother
Absolutely, all addicted to something. Thanks so much for this comment brother, it is one day at a time, it really is. Let’s focus on the now, tomorrow will come when it comes. God bless 🙏🏻
Hey Slayer well you’re spot on. We must not squander our life by chasing the dragon. We have a choice and you’re right there are days when it’s almost impossible to say no but knowing the end result will be the same should be enough to keep us away from whatever is holding us back in life. It can be anything even unrelated to a substance. Bottom line is we must find joy in life and really be present as tomorrow is not guaranteed. Thank you for your honesty it’s not harsh but your message is clear and concise. Have a great rest of the day! Until next time…
It's 420 today and this is the first 420 that I am saying goodbye to weed live celebrated this holiday year after year after year and it's over bro I'm done with it This channel has helped me become sober more than alcohol and it's amazing Thank you Slayer everybody out there keep on moving Don't give up because life is beautiful.
That genuinely brings a smile to my face brother, that’s absolutely incredible and you should be proud of yourself my friend. You’ve helped me as much as I’ve helped you man, your comments and support have been amazing. You are a friend, just like LD and others on this channel, incredible bro just incredible. Salute to you Luke 🙌🏻
I just want to let you know I've been watching your videos and they helping me so much, I'm an alcoholic I'm 29 I just lost a other job the shakes are unbearable and the fear is out of this world I'm trying to taper down because rehab or detox isn't an option. These videos are helping, I'm not in the realm of delerium tremens but I do feel very confused and scared , alcohol has ruined every job and relationship I've ever had it destroys people like us and I relate to your videos so much it's like listening to myself.! Keep going with your sobriety your living proof that we can get better, god bless you dude. Luke
Just want it all to be over , alcohol is truly demonic I'm seeing this with my own two eyes , it ruins everything. Thankyou for a reply means a lot freind
Exactly what Cindy said brother, I know where you’re at, I’ve been there before. It seems like it’s hopeless but it’s not!!! 🙏🏻 this community is here for you Luke 🙏🏻💯!
9 days sober today slayer! My personal best in years. Slayer, you’re 10000% part of my support group. Been hitting the AA meetings and between that, are you’re videos, have gotten me to 9 days. Can’t guarantee tomorrow, because I take things 1 day at a time but for today, I will not drink. Thank you my brother. The work you are doing is working and is godsend. Happy Friday brother! Keep up the good work!
Woooohhhh!!!! Hell yea brother! Congratulations on 9 days!!! I’m so happy to hear from you man!!!! This is so cool. Oscar remember it’s one day at a time my friend, keep fkin killing it!!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻💪💪
Bro this message really hit home with me especially when you were talking about everyday living like it's not easy at all like we always have reminders in our own brains It's like a time clock like you said holidays birthdays any kind of celebration any thing that has to do with life in general It triggers us because we do like that warm feeling in our belly and to try to go throughout our day without it anymore is hard but you know what it is so much better It is more peaceful especially in the morning when I wake up I don't have that nauseousness that dizziness that feeling of being tossed in the wind going left or right you know now it's I am steady I have my mind right and I can go through my day and the hardest thing is those moments that trigger us is the hardest thing like you said what works for you might not work for somebody else We have to find our own thing in life to satisfy and put the flame out on those feelings and thoughts that try to overcome us bro we are overcomers we don't want to live that life anymore It's over It's done and that old dead man wants to be revived but you know what we are a new person We are washed clean We will never go back to that It's hard because we've been exposed to the dark side we've been exposed to the highs of doing drugs and drinking and whatever but you know what the Lows are Lows The highs or highs but the lows are lows And I just want to be even keeled steady and solid so my kids my wife and everybody around me can see that. Those days are over man I'll never forget those days They are always a reminder of what not to do I love it bro I'm so happy to see your followers growing and will continue to increase keep it moving homie❤💯✌🏻
I have no idea why TH-cam hasn’t been showing me your comments bro, I downloaded TH-cam studio and now I’m seeing them. TH-cam has been absolutely wack, much love brother hope you are well man.
I really love the idea of writing down 10 things you're grateful for when you're down. I feel like it would remind me what i really want to be focusing on. I can promise you that my friends and family will always make that list and it would probably prompt me to make a phone call lol I really squandered my time with my family. I have so many memories that I was a part of that i can't recollect. It's such a shame. So when I'm tempted, I think about everything I missed out on in life and it sobers my brain up. It usually makes me urgently make plans with sometime i love. These connections are the bread and butter of life. I hope you're having a great week! Sending you hugs, prayers and the best of wishes!! It's been beautiful here in NY, I hope the warming weather is getting you excited for the next few months! I can't wait for hikes, the beach and bbq's with my foodie friends 😁

Good video. It's the same reason for my channel. Is that a five-string bass back there? My channel is growing and it looks likes yours is too. I am glad. You hit the nail on the head, man. I have wasted a TON of time. It sucks. You are younger than me and I hope you "get it" and stay there. Don't wait until you are older. Did you ever find out what happened to Dirk?
Thanks brother, I’ve checked out your videos man, great work keep doing what you’re doing. I hope I can stay the course as well, this community, comments like yours really help me in this sobriety journey. I’ll shout your channel out next video bro! 🙏🏻💪
Thanks for sharing that Phil Anselmo vid bro huge fan of Pantera amazing video I would have never known about it unless you shared it man It's truly moving Thanks bro.
Pantera has been getting me through my sobriety bro. Amazing band that I always looked away from because I thought they were too “screamo” man was I wrong. Pantera is emotion, every time I hear one of their songs I feel it in my core. It’s a way to let my anger and aggression out in a healthy way. Fcking beautiful man, thanks for the comment as always brother and I’m glad to see it seems like we have the same music taste ✌🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

When I did 30 days sober in October 2023, I started looking forward to not drinking in the evening, it was crazy and surprising! Just need to try again soon!
@@Slayer-7373 thank you so much for saying that, I keep trying to remember how great I started feeling, and my dad said he hadn't heard me sound that well in years! 😧 I never drank a bottle of wine a day, more like 2-3 +/- glasses, but the daily thing started adding up to more dangerous physical & mental health issues.
@@Slayer-7373 oh gosh I'm not even sure really, but definitely the past 10 yrs had gotten into the daily drinking of wine at "happy hour" with dinner.

you are our friend . can you do a video on loving a alcoholic. because of the lies and emotionally not available. i had to remove my support. she only lasted 3 weeks at rehab. it’s been heartbreaking and i miss her . but i has to sail to another country with my dog as had i stayed i would have been witnessing dysfunctional behaviour.
hi bro i told you i would update you . she drank tonight as she is house sitting ( on her own ) lasted 5 to 6 weeks. i’m hoping this is just one night . very disappointing as she will definitely start again
Man I wouldn't know what day it was, what time it was, I wouldn't be able to get out out of bed and when you wouldn't want to drink you know you had to cause the withdrawals are so bad i'd sleep only a couple hours at a time cause id start withdrawing and when i crawled out of bed and start drinking id cry at times cause i felt so trapped in this hell hole.
Yes brother, 100% spot on. I went through the same exact stuff. Miserable, absolutely miserable. Like you said crawling out of bed just to drink and go lay back in bed and repeat that cycle over and over and over again. When you would have to get to the liquor store it was like a quest because of how bad you would feel. I remember times walking to get my drinks when I felt like that and at times wondering if I would just collapse half way to the gas station. Horrible times, I’m glad we are both in better positions my friend. God bless you! 🙏🏻
