Day 465. I cannot believe that I use to operate hungover all the time. There’s nothing worse than being hungover at work and then having alcohol withdrawals at the same time.
omg those days 😔
Yeah for sure. You said it perfectly. Incredible that was our reality before. But thank god for miracles and people like you to share the truth. We hope you're doing well these days!
Exactly. It is hard to believe how much misery I have put myself through ever morning, just to feel better by 3pm, and then rinse and repeat. It was like a nightmarish version of Ground Hog day. 465 is amazing. Congrats.
@@xavierbreath2227 We feel you on that. It's insane. Glad to know you're aware and healing. Stay smart and stay free!
My drinking has never done anything for me
It’s my first Friday night sober in about 15 years. It’s tough. Tomorrow is the big one though. This is day 6 of sobriety and I’m home watching this video and it’s helping. I managed to go out with friends from work and only drink soda water this evening. Thanks for the help.
Sobriety is like a broken leg. It needs time to heal.
It doesn't need entertainment, a walk, a jog and certainly NO RUNNING.
This is the time you need, you owe it to yourself. The relationship with yourself is the most important one. It's the only one that you'll have EVERY DAY.
This is the time to work on your physical health, your mental health, new hobbies, exercise, diet, maybe some therapy, skies the limit.
When you're ready to do more you'll know. Just don't jeopardize your sobriety!
Comment often when you watch other videos. I will respond when I can.

You still sober?
Still sober. Yes i am. Im alive.
1 year and 10 days. Better sleep, more calm, better relationships, more energy.
WOAH!!!
That is awesome Niklas!
3+1/2 years sober. I've never felt better and don't miss it at all (I had a serious drink problem for 30 years).
Time to get YOU back! congrats my friend!
Between your video, and all of these inspiring comments, I'm stoked that I found this channel! After more than a decade of daily heavy drinking, I am 15 days sober today, and going strong! Thank you for this.
Hey Steve!! I'm glad you found us too.. TH-cam can be overwhelming at times. Stick with it. We need to prove to ourselves that we are stronger than what we believe we have become
Day 4 for me, feel good. 20 plus years of heavy drinking. good luck bud
@@shultis1 4 days is awesome! Keep it up. I'm proud of you for taking those first steps. I'm on day 88 today and it feels great. Put your mind to it, and you will succeed.
Congratulations!
@@julieevans4926 Thank you! I'm almost 5 months in now.
One of the benefits of quiting alcohol is you create a positive butterfly effect. I mentioned this in one of the other episodes but to explain it further its when one small change results in many huge differences down the road. In this case positive differences such as. Your health improves in a big way, your family benefits, your financial state could drastically change for the better. Everything in your life gets better when you quit drinking. You've created a butterfly effect. And you can plan all kinds of butterfly effects in your life by doing things like, going back to school, volunteering in the community, giving music lessons to children. The possibilities are endless you just have to use your imagination. When you get sober you free your minds imagination. 😌
nice comment chuck!!!
@HoboGardenerBen I know what you mean. When I quit alcohol and weed I thought I might as well get all the addictive drugs out of my body so I quit coffee too. Keep up the great work. Sounds like you are doing awesomely!!!
Thank you my friend. Thanks for your reply just the other day too. Love that “butterfly effect”. People may not truly grasp the exponential nature of this. But it is mind boggling if we rid ourselves of alcohol. Of course, for entertainment you could actually watch the movie “ The butterfly effect “ which I also liked way back.
The movies sub quote is, “ Change one thing,
Change everything………..”. I love that. All the best. Talk to you again.
💯
38 days sober, I used to be so numb to my emotions while using alcohol. And the biggest thing I’ve noticed so far, is how intensely i feel my emotions now.
My body also isnt in as much casual pain as it used to be, my back would hurt all the time.
And im slowly coming out of the brain fog, its still pretty bad along with the dissociation, but ive noticed im able to carry out thoughts just little better.
My mother was/is a alcoholic when i was growing up and it was normalized around me and also pushed on me. So ive been drinking on and off since probably 13 years old. Im 23 now.
The biggest reason why i am able to begin my sobriety journey is because i started to heal from my trauma, and finally being in a healthy situation in a healthy relationship with someone who holds me accountable and gives me all the support i could ever ask for, keeps me going and pushing.
You have to have a good enough reason why to stop drinking to actually get yourself to stop, and everyones reason is different.
Im thankful that ive found my reason while im still young and able to make changes before things got TOO extreme.
That disassociate part is real, I was starting to feel like I was in a dream. Not real
Today is day 8! Past the one week mark.
Just in time to join us for our Livestream at 7pm Eastern 😀
Sobriety is so RockN'Roll to me. It truly feels special. Endless smiles! Learning social tools and adding them to the tool belt.
NEW SOCIAL TOOLS 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🧡💙💙❤️💛😁👏😻
4 yrs bottle of whiskey a week after my sweetheart died in motorcycle accident. I saved all the bottles, don’t know why. 2019 was very lonely. I too made excuses and took the fk it pill. Today 10/30/23 my “sobering “ wake up call with new symptoms and feeling like something bad is going to happen soon, decided I’d rather be fishing than having a stroke. Today is day one. BP 160/110 was always 122/77. Thank you for putting your videos in the universe. Be 60 in July. Next is the smoking. 45 yrs. One human to another, find a purpose, even if it’s fishing. ML&R
congratulations to making this very important decision for your health and your longevity! I also too quit on October 30th this last time 3 years ago!
before I quit my blood pressure was 160 over 90, and after just 30 days of sobriety it went all the way back down to about 120 over 70.
You know what needs to be done now. just a matter of being patient with yourself and being persistent along your journey to see your goals come for fruition!

I can relate to you about a loved one passing away I did the same thing the last year and a half has been hell started drinking way too much just recently stopped filling so much better good luck to you
I'm at 90 days. I love this episode. Please don't change it 🙏🏼🙂💙
Hi there Food Eye Cue 💖
I was drinking almost a fifth every day. Now ive weaned myself down to less than a third of that. 8 days from now will be my first day with 0 alcohol. Binging these videos instead of binge drinking 💪
❤ Same here...in 15 days it will be day one and I'm getting impatient, wanting to quit cold turkey but never sticks when I did that in the past so I'm trying it Jaes way this time...😂
@kristikiser8762 quitting cold turkey can be very dangerous. I once had two seizures from withdrawal and ended up in the hospital. Stay safe and stay strong.
Been sober for 80+ days. i am living my best life in close to 30 years of drinking every day. everything in this video is truth, thank god ive found your channel. god bless!
the dizziness issue came up with me, and it turned out to be a loss of thiamine levels relating to an imbalance of blood sugar. A chat with my doctor got me on thiamine supplements. that made the dizziness go away and now it's levelled off after 80 days.
How are you holding up JP??
Hey how are you doing now? Sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders!
I was losing bone density even though I was taking vitamins. I ended up with Ostrapenia. Quitting alcohol helped me with quitting vaping,then I felt better and joined a gym. I actually feel younger and hopefully rebuilding bones. 10 months sober.
10 MONTHS WOOOOO!!!!!
@@GettingSoberAgain it is a year now since June . I had a dream that they had a sale on wine coolers and I started to drink some, one of my adult children saw me in my dream and said your back to that now? It was my reminder that the kids are watching .
@@Bidenislying God bless the children 👼
Awesome! Good luck
Whoa why were you losing bone density
I turn 40 in 2 weeks. 25 yrs of "partying" has finally worn me out but terrified as well. Thanks for the vids, giving me a lot to look forward to & congrats on your own sobriety as well :)
Alcohol just hits different now doesn't it? Keep us posted in the comments, I look forward to hearing about your positive progress
Your comment really hits home for us. Very well said. We're right there with you. Hope you're doing good now!
I have never heard anyone present the self sabotage loop in a more understandable way! I think I just didn’t know how to get out of the loop. When deciding to accomplish something (anything, I love how you even throw “make bed” as an accomplishment), VS drinking, that really is the moment to “break in.” Then just do it again for the next task until self worth improves via the achievements (instead of the white claw cans) that pile up.
It’s so true: drinking alcohol leads to NOT accomplishing things, creating emptiness, leading to depression, and causing anxiety about the future… that leads to more drinking. Eloquently stated.
Today, thanks to you, I wasn’t the mom who opened the next bottle of wine while I looked depressed and overwhelmed at the huge stack of laundry, the lunches to pack, the kids to feed, the obligations I haven’t yet started… only to wake up tomorrow as my future self with all the same problems and more. Today, I was the mom who started those tasks one at a time with sobriety, got them all done, and my tomorrow self is going to be so proud.
(I did resist the urge to open the wine to celebrate my accomplishments - which clearly speaks to the work I have to do. But one thing at a time! Thank you!)
You are practicing, and it gets easier. Remember how hard it was to take your training wheels off, or to tie your shoes, or divide and multiply?
This is just another thing to learn, get used to, and apply to your daily life.
You deserve happy children and they deserve a happy and healthy mom.
Make this your motto moving forward: I will EARN my sleep
No more running away, no more avoiding, no more hiding. Naps are ok. but most of all, do what you need to do to reduce your daily stress. Maybe do more frequent laundry loads, instead of waiting until it's overwhelming.
Another motto I'm a big fan of is: Just do it now
There's no sense in putting things off, that's also just "tasking it to future you". You ARE future you.
Be on the same team. Be able to count on yourself. Be the change you wish to see!

Great episode. Watched it twice. I’m 64 days sober and I’m using Getting Sober Again as one of my most valuable resources.
I have to admit that I did expect more...more happiness, the first time I stopped drinking. I suppose I made it more difficult when I left my husband, but I made it....for 5 more years.
These videos are really opening my eyes and giving me hope again. I'm at the point of drinking a handle every 4-5 days. I'm starting my journey today of being sober again today. Wish me luck and pray for me
Luck and vibes coming your way!!!💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Hope you are doing well Nick May 🙏
I've definitely experienced most of these benefits when I've gotten close to 90 days. I've never quite made it to 90 since I've started drinking, but I'm getting there (and much farther) this time. For now I've got 8 days done and the weekend conquered by walking myself out of drinking thoughts. 5 miles in the evening seems to do the trick.
Great work champ! 8 days down, keep it up!
Hey alright! Collecting more knowledge and helpful tools and also providing a helpful comment for others to relate to and use! Keep it up 👍🏽
@@bigrus0078 nice!!! How long has it been since you've had 10 days?!
@@GettingSoberAgain hey champ, rolling into day 13 today, tomorrow is 2 weeks!. Its's 4.45am here and just getting up to head to the gym. Hope you are well champ and winning those pool games 😉👍.
@@bigrus0078 fantastic work!!! Man 2 weeks just flew by! I hope you feel the same and full of momentum 💪🏽
April 1st will be 90 days for me. My waist is slimming and I just did my first motorcycle rally sober. That was the ultimate test for me and I passed it
Niiiiice 🏁
Glad you're not riding a motorcycle when you're not sober any more. Sheesh
I’ve always been a binge drinker and I’ve always drank often. After a recent breakup I drank literally every day for almost two months. I drank a fifteen pack A day during the week and a flat per day on weekends. It was absolutely disgusting behaviour. I’m on day three without it and it actually went ok. Im going to try sobriety for a month and see how I feel. If all goes well I’ll go another month
How'd you go?
Only 2 months? It's been almost 4 years. Not one day off. This is fucked
How much is “a flat per day”?
Can I ask you - what is a "flat per day" ?
For those wondering a “flat” is a 24 pack
I have finally became sober... Again just like the title 🤣 but for once I finally have found a way to maintain it. I'm now going just past my 6 week mark and I have never made it this far before. Each day is just like you describe, and each day is getting better. I have started on some supplements and vitamins to help get my energy level up and I'm finally able to do things like I did before my alcohol career. I just found this chanel about 2 weeks ago. I am glad to see someone is actually out putting it like it is. Keep up the good work.
Thank you brother!! Congrats on 6 weeks, it must be a good feeling right?? How long was your "drinking career?" Keep in touch I always love to hear positive updates :)
Outstanding..
@@GettingSoberAgain my drinking career was for 27 years and I will never let that take control of my life ever again. It does feel so good to finally be getting healthy again.thanks again
@@dantrejo5333 much love
It's been almost a year since you posted this, I sure hope that you are still doing great, if not reread your own post
Dude, your channel is the best I've came across on TH-cam. I have been drinking heavily for half my life. I'm 33 and from the U.K. I'm a music teacher and father , I've decided its now or never I stop. I'm day 5 into my journey and your channel is making me feel so positive about my journey. Alcohol was the main reason for the breakdown in my relationship and most of negative aspects in my life. My friends want me to go out tonight for one of their birthdays. I watch your videos and no what I have to and more importantly want to do. Thank you and bless!
woaaaaaaaah!!!!! what a lovely comment and congrats to you on regaining control of the ship! some people are just lost our at sea with no direction and don't even know how badly they're even lost. you're making the steps, now it's time to keep putting in the practice and be patient.
if you're not there yet, what do you do? KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP GOING!!!!!💪🏽
Hi PB LIDG just checking in to see how you are doing! this is a great community here at getting sober and I am glad you are here!
@@CD-zy5te Hey man. I'm really good thanks! Hope you're keeping well. Firstly, Thanks for the message. I'm 15 days sober today! this is the longest I've been without alcohol and other substances since about the age of 15-16, I'm 33. I feel good even though I've had a cold the past few days. I have spent some quality time with my son and I'm more productive at work. I've been to the pub with friends and family and just drank diet coke, I didn't actually find it that difficult. That's not to say I wont in the future. Thanks for the love.
@@pblidg7858 that is fantastic! Thank you for letting know that you are doing great! I remember in the beginning of my sobriety journey I spent time daily listening to Jae and a couple other channels. I didnt know at the time how important that would become. You see I was building up knowledge and affirmations so I would not have to depend on only willpower later. When Jae and SamE get back from their road trip I hope to see you in the live stream chat sometime!
I just decided to quit alcohol, or stop and reset at least, so this video is definitely very helpful. I'm already down the road to recovery from being a pack-a-day smoker to a non-smoker now for over 2 years, so alcohol was the obvious next step in this journey. Thanks again and wishing you good health!
May you receive all of the blessings coming your way!!
I decided to quit drinking for a week. A week became a month and now has become 2 years. Motivation? Positive benefits.
No one will ever regret giving up alcohol. It doesn’t really taste that good and it puts a negative spin on almost every person I have ever known. If someone wanted to claim that alcohol tastes great, how long would you drink it as much as you do now if the alcohol was removed.
Suddenly a case of beer probably doesn’t sound so tasty.
Truthfully after the first 6 months I could see the sudden difference in anyone’s personality after they even had one drink.
Even the most good hearted person in the world will find a method to become an ass with enough alcohol...
And frankly, it’s never a bonus.
I don’t miss it, rarely ever think about it, and have lost interest in a lot of former friends and activities associated with drinking. If friendship and activities are requiring a bar, they’re we were the 1st things to fade away.
Im loving life without. Literally
This is one of the best comments on any of our videos! I'm very happy that you took the time to share! Thank you
@@GettingSoberAgain and thank you for putting it out there with honesty
I appreciate your comment!! As well as others… Just Day #2 for me after going back and forth just to get sucked back in. But this time I Aim to win!! 😊
It’s year later and still as happy without
Recently quit for 3 weeks, had two beers the other night and was kinda let down …. Didn’t have the flavour I remember craving … back to no booze for me
I'm 29 years young. I have been in denial about being in denial for far too long. I feel like I'm the biggest hypocrite I know because I never practice what I preach. I feel like the 2 biggest problems with the world is impatience and laziness, and I am consumed by both. So with that being said, I feel quite grateful for randomly stumbling upon your videos Jae. THIS has given me more inspiration and motivation than I have experienced in a long... long time.
Sometimes we have to be the motivation we are looking for! Thank YOU for keeping ME on track! Make sure to subscribe, you're going to want to binge watch my now 95 episodes to get you thru this journey
Impatient and laziness that was spot all I needed to hear because that’s me I work and pay my bills but once I get off I go home and drink Hennessy and some beers even though I know I need to switch up my routine thanks
This channel rocks..
This is a wonderful series of videos. Thank you so very much for this. I have been sober since January 10 of 2010. I can relate to all of this. Keep on keeping on! Peace and blessings always.
Holy Moses!!!! 11+ years?!! It's time for you to start dropping some knowledge in the comments! Cheers!!
Today I am 1 year 1/2 sober! 18 months. 🥳🥳🥳
Congrats to you today my friend!!! We shouted you out on our Facebook group!!
facebook.com/groups/gettingsoberagain/?ref=share
Ah, the much anticipated 90 day video!! It exceeded my expectations! There's so much content in this video, it's almost unbelievable, except that I know you are a very genuine person and not just making it up. Down to the increased credit score! 😀 I must say, you saved the best for last. Your before, Day 1 picture versus now are like not even the same person! You look so much younger and healthier! Your whole demeanor is more vivacious And full of vitality. Thanks for putting this together and congratulations to you on getting all those benefits!!
If we all experience even some of those things, the world would be a better place!!
Thank you so much! I had a great time working on it and I hope it was worth the wait :)
This is my first video from this channel. The channel description describes me. I'm almost 60 and have drank since I was a teanager. I quit for 6 months a few years ago and then went through a traumatic event and started drinking to cope. I so wish i would have held out after 6 months. I finally decided I had to make a change 5 days ago and started the journey again. Thanks for the channel and wisdom!
It's never too late to get yourself back! I'm happy to hear from you, and I love your name 😎
I’ve never been depressed and I’m not lying about it. There are people out there who just aren’t depressed.
NOICE!
I love your videos. I am a licensed mental health counselor, and I'm also trained as a drug/alcohol educator and counselor. My hat is off to you...kudos on everything. These videos are phenomenal and spot on. I am referring people to this sight. I work mainly on military bases around the world where support services are less than in the US. Thank you for all you do. Sincerely, Lindy
Oh wow Lindy thank you so much!!! Can you please come to one of our Livestreams? We are doing one tonight at 7-9pm eastern and every Friday/Sunday as well. We need more qualified people in the chats to give advice rather than opinion.

Hi. I’d love to join sometime. Right now it’s not possible as I’m winding down an assignment in the UK. I’ll be back in the US on March 30. Let me know if a time after March 30. I’d gladly support all your efforts. Warmly, Lindy

Wuddup Jae! Thanks for tagging me to this new video. Man you been busy lol. Lots of great info and insights as always. I hope you and everyone here has a great week
Having a hard day today, 46 days in and this one helped me understand some of what I'm feeling today so as always thanks jae.👍👊

Need this video everyday.

Really enjoying your channel. I’ve had a bad week of drinking and feel like absolute dirt inside and out.
I’m so disappointed in myself. Thank you for sharing your journey.
It's my pleasure to be of assistance. Stay in touch and thanks for being positive :)
I know what its like pal it sucks. But it happens to everyone and it happens so easily. I know I've been there many a time. But the flip side is you always get a reset. So dust yourself off and when you get your willpower built up again you'll be ready to shoot for the stars!!! Good luck!!! :D

I totally feel you I’m on day 4 getting off all my vices and I’m feeling sick. The room is spinning and my vision gets tracers. I drink water take Benadryl then try to sleep it off

If you did then, or if you are now, you can turn around and climb out of the barrel! Try not to beat yourself up too much, that just distracts you from climbing out, really. None of us is faultless.
I never realized how bad alcohol is mentally i only thought about the pysical affects like being hung over. It gives you anxiety, depression, and low self esteem.
The ability to recognize the positive outcome from staying sober is rewarding itself. I started with trying this sobriety for 1 months and that right there was rewarding to me so I did not want to break my streak and now I am 1 year and 1 month no alcohol streak. Loving every moment of this. It has helped me stay accountable for other things I’ve wanted to try as well such as , no coffee, no soda, no sweets for 30 days. Now I’m on this staying accountable and waking up in the early morning to workout. Oh and I’m also staying accountable and not coloring my hair. Sounds silly but be always colored my hair and with turning 40 this year I want to see my natural color. There is just so many benefits so anyone who wants to try this start small.. set yourself a short amount of time and then just keep going once you reach that streak mark. Thanks for this video and everything you’re saying is totally true. I have felt the same positive results. I feel healthy and my skin is amazing. If you don’t do drugs or smoke, why put poison alcohol in your system.
Welcome to healthy club 40!!!
Sobriety is the best, and though I often thought that I was sober when I was drinking, like between bouts of drinking, I don’t think I really was. There was always a longing for alcohol and a kind of treading water between drinking sessions, not real sobriety. Waking up after a deeply restful night’s sleep is only the tip of the sobriety iceberg. Good luck to everyone starting an alcohol free life.
Love the positivity Patrick!
I absolutely appreciate how organized and thoughtful you are in posting your videos. Thank you for the time stamps 🙂
Thanks @rach!! I don't do it for all of them, but when I do....LOOK OUT lol
I'm a generally organized person. 🤗
It feels like I have a time machine going back and forward watching your videos. Its so amazing you are over 2 years sober now! I am feeling better, day by day. I feel able to control my destiny, and the anxiety/panic is subsiding. I love your work Jae.
haha alright!! I designed the videos to be like having a friend giving you a daily pep talk. I'm glad they are still working 💪🏼
One week sober and my panic attacks are GONE
Going on day 4 but I definitely have a new outlook and I'm very thankful I found your account. Looking forward to the progression you've described and I'm very grateful for the content you create
Fantastic! thank you for the love it really means a lot. I don't know that most people understand how much emotional and creative energy it takes to produce videos like this to try and help people. so thank you for taking the time to be kind
Love your enthusiasm and willingness to share your story!
Awwwwwww!!! Thanks for saying so! I have 95 episodes now, so check them all out :)
90 days and counting..so happy.. I started drinking when I was young and was addicted for 16 years.. First time hitting this mark
I have quit at the age of 35 and taken up weight lifting and boxing.
Way to go, bro!!! I’m on the journey with you ‼️
yusssss!!!
Great episode, Jae! You touched base on much-needed topics!
oh wow! this one was pretty good. the intro was a little long for my liking these days lol. I might trim it in the future 🤷
Excellent video!
#15 is gold! Having too much time and anxiety around that is what I discovered as well very quickly.
Thanks man!
Thanks for saying so! It makes me happy to have such wonderful support while I provide...wonderful support lol =)
Awesome videos, keep em coming!
I'm proud of this one! I worked 3 months on it :)
@@GettingSoberAgain it shows.. you the Man
Thanks for the channel man. These vids remind me why I’m on this journey when I need remembering. There is a lack of sobriety channels on TH-cam, most videos are about 30 day “challenges” so I can appreciate a serious channel dedicated to the long haul.
Thanks for coming thru and leaving all your positive comments! I believe we are doing God's work here, and I'm happy to be of service!
Good stuff, Jae. On day 2 here...again. I was able to stop drinking for 4 months last year, which was the longest I've gone w/o alcohol since high school...and I'm in my 40's. Thanks for the inspiration and motivation. Keep it up, man!
Thanks John! I'll have a new episode out in a little while, check back and make sure you're subscribed with notifications on so you get the updates!😉
Hope that you are all doing well and staying safe. Enjoy the weekend, and big props to Jae again, cheers bro, the community is growing!
Hey happy weekend to you!! Anything planned?
@@GettingSoberAgain hey mate, yeah hitting legs at the gym, then a walk and session with councillor this arvo to keep the momentum up and touch base. Hope you have a good one and win some $$rs at pool 😉😎👊. Thanks again for setting all this up champ. Legend 🏆 and another great video, keeps me focused.
@@bigrus0078 how are you and mum?
Great video mate
I am just starting my sobriety journey and watching videos like this are helping me stay focused and positive so thank you
You are so welcome! we put out this episode last year but it's highly popular. check out our latest, you will get a kick out of it too, and it's only 5 minutes :) th-cam.com/video/Z2LxOYUJSso/w-d-xo.html
I started alternate day fasting (46/2-40/8) a month ago. I was drinking on my eating days the first two weeks. One night, with one drink I had gotten a severe headache. Tried again 2 days later on my eating day and another severe headache. What a blessing that was! It’s been 14 days since that last drink and I have no desire to have another drink. I’m continuing the alternate day fasting for the autophagy benefits and cleaning out the toxins built up in my body from all the years of drinking.🥰
We certainly look forward to hearing your updates at 1 month plus! A lot of people get overconfident in the first few weeks, and we never hear from them again =(
@@GettingSoberAgain One month has passed and I still have zero desire to drink. I’m continuing ADF fasting and I’m loving it! The noticeable changes are- I’m happier and I am much more gabby, my skin looks better, my resting/sleeping heart rate is down 25 points, and my sleeping has drastically improved. 😍
Good stuff thanks man!
I'd be lying if I said that it wasn't one of my favorite and best episodes =)
There are over 145 episodes and livestreams to bingewatch! Stick around and binge a few. Dont forget to leave comments when you do!
So amazingly inspiring. You are a gift..
I am not sure how I found you .... but so happy I did.
I quit 6 days ago... I will come back here for inspiration.
That's such a nice thing to say, thank you!!!!!! This comment made my day, truly :) please keep in touch
Bruh you look way better from the 90 DAYS WOW.
112 days in now💯🙏
Bone Thugs what's up??? I was just over on Superior e30-Heights all day 💪🏽
Great vid! You have a very great personality and it shows through your character. Best of luck with your awesome channel. 👍
Thank you so much! We have 150 episodes and livestreams! Please stick around, comment, and feel free to provide positive support to people who are new to sobriety. We have a great community that I'm very proud of!
Great series of videos. Very well articulated and with humour. Well done 👍
Thanks Brandan! That's what I was going for :)
Great motivation. Thank you for sharing 🎉
Day 65 for me. It's about my 20th time trying and this is the record. This time has been much easier, quitting smoking took me a bunch of tries too, sometimes you have to just keep at it.
NEW RECORD!!!????? Well then let's just keep smashing thru that ceiling of accomplishments shall we?
💯 congrats
Great video, dude. You clearly put in a lot of thought to make this, and it shows. I've watched it 3 times now.
Oh wow I'm so happy to hear the recognition and that you watched it 3 times. This makes me feel like I'm on the right track and I thank you for your support
thank You! Clear and to the point. Covers it.
Glad it was helpful! it's one of my favorites
Enjoying watching your videos, it’s nice to go through this journey with someone even if I don’t actually know you. I’m at 94 days today and my plan is to make this my new lifestyle. I hope you continue your videos the connection is key for me at this point in my journey. Thank you!! And yes your skin is glowing the comparison is huge.
Jenna from Idaho
Hey Jenna....Is it weird that I already feel connected to you? ANYWAY....
you hit all the keywords and I'm confident that you are going to make strides in your progress. You know what else I know you're going to do?... Stay in touch! lol
AND come to our livestreams and chats on Friday and Sunday 7pm Eastern! I'm sure many can benefit from your experience and kind words!
Thank you, thank you THANK YOU! I need this exact support and inspiration. I'm on day 5 and going at it all alone.
I'm happy to hear that you've made it this far! How do you handle cravings? What has been working for you so far? What made you come to the decision to PRACTICE sobriety?
Congratulations on your 90 days of not drinking. I quit drinking several decades ago and for the first couple of years took things one day at a time, that definitely works. So does searching out some help, in my case that was AA, it's really tough to obtain healthy sobriety on your own, there's so much going on besides just the drinking. If you continue down the path of sobriety you'll be able to look back and know that this was the greatest gift you could give yourself, to stop drinking. Life is so beautiful sober. Believe it.
I always wondered why people who have been sober for so long still check out these videos. Thanks for providing an answer :)
Great Video Jae!!
So much info in here, I could watch it again and still learn more! Thanks!
Going sweet over here. Working at night keeps me busy and offers a schedule ruled by self care to keep me sane. Eat, water, sleep, make music, work, repeat.
It's nice and consistent.
That's great to hear! I am also very addicted to my routine. Please do watch over and over lol. I am actually going to be making an update later today for episode #90 announcing a contest to make the video go viral!...
@@GettingSoberAgain yeah!!
That would be very Excellent!!
Thank you for stating this... and sharing it so simply and clearly.
My pleasure! This is one of my best videos! What brings you here?

Great video, I loved #25. You were a handsome individual on day one but I do see a big change. Fantastic.
Wow, thank you! 💅🏽😂💃
Great video as always. Super detailed and informative.
Curbing the spring/summer cravings would be a good video topic. Not sure if you’ve covered that one yet
Great idea brother thank you for the tip!
And I appreciate all the love as always! I worked really really hard on this episode and I'm very proud of it. I'm hoping that this will be a timeless piece that people will resonate with or the next 10 years
@@GettingSoberAgain “thoughts and cravings are not the same thing” that resonated with me. Makes total sense.
I hope this video blows up for you and you grow even more. Hard work pays off- keep er goin’
Congrats man - keep beating the bosses and leveling up
I like the support from your videos. It's been very helpful. Thanks

WOW, Just WOW!!! I'm 12 days into Dry July, I've been having 1 month off alcohol for 6 years now but this video makes me think I will keep going until my birthday, (mid November) and then re-evaluate whether I need it or not. Thanks for the inspiration :-)
Great! That's the whole point, to help people choose for themselves :)
I started back in October of 2020 and decided to have a sober holidays and birthday (dec20). Then just kept it rolling thru all those "difficult" holidays. I needed to prove to myself that I could do this, instead of just saying "I could quit whenever I wanted" without doing the quitting part.
Don't be a stranger. We have a great community here! We love to hear success stories
@@GettingSoberAgain Subscribed Bro :-)
@@clubmusicnz yooooooo!! Welcome to the fam Darryn Sly Dry July! 💪🏽
Hi Darryn just checking in to see how you are doing! this is a great community here at getting sober and I am glad you are here
Man Jae, I got away from the channel and have been drinking again. You seem to say everything I need to hear. Thank you 🙏
everyone's tolerance to different substances will be different :)
a lot of people just jump from one addiction to another: sugar, coffee, etc
I have to comment for the sake of promoting the channel. Thank you for the videos. I havent stopped drinking. I know I need to stop, and this is definitely a motivation. I’ve numbed myself to continue living a life less than my full potential, and it helps to be brought back to reality. This is definitely a channel worth promoting. Thank you
Thank you so much for the nod and the love! I hope that these videos in this community continues to serve you a longer journey! Don't be a stranger
Set a goal, you CAN do it!
@@ebony5766 Great ATTITUDE! =)

Excellent. Easy to understand. Many thanks dude. I’m at 6weeks first time I’ve ever done this. Loving it
FIRST TIME??????? YOU'RE THE MAGICAL SOBRIETY UNICORN!!! lol We always talk about people like you on the channel...which to remind you is called "Getting Sober...AGAIN" for a reason.
Tell the people reading what your successes were!!!!
Hi Jae!!! On day 9. Its going good. Painted the shed today and it was really sunny and warm. Said to the wife, you know if there was a good day for a nice cold beer this is it. She was like oh no lol but I was fine. I found that mental preparedness is helping this time. Before when it was sunny and warm that was my excuse to hit the beer store but I found that if I'm mindful of nature like sound of the birds and bugs, and maybe the bikini next door lol just kidding, it feels really good to experience these things sober. I have a lot more energy also to get things done around the yard because I've been able to put the dope away too. I was using as a crutch if the acohol cravings got too much but I haven't needed this time. Really starting to feel better. Like you said though I do have bouts of depression too and I think that's par for the course. And I found meditation helps alot with that. That's about all I got today. Hope your health is getting better Jae. Got finish watching you video. Tty later pal be good!!! :D
Day 9! Nice work 👊
@@bigrus0078 thanks pal!!! :D
