I think a lot of people are waking up and realizing that sobriety is where it's at if you want to remain a productive human being. Congrats on 10 years.
@@smellslikeproductions I was a 'moderate' drinker for over 30 years. Probably better at it than you. Life's much better without it. If you can't live an interesting life without putting poison into your body, who should really be crying here?
I'm 8 year clean and I feel the same way and say that to addicts working on sobriety all the time. 2 things I tell every one I speak to about overcoming addiction are this, "a sober adult life is the best high you can experience and every drop of blood, sweat and tears on the path to a sober life are worth it." and the other one is a quote that helped me more then I can express, "Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not who some one else is today".

I’m almost to 3.5 years and I agree. Besides the everyday stuff like work and chores, I don’t ever have to do anything that I don’t want to do. I don’t hang out with people I don’t want, don’t go to events I don’t want, I only do exactly what I want to do everyday because there’s no “oh well I’ll get drunk and it’ll be fun anyway” mindset. No waking up and thinking “wish I’d stayed home last night. I didn’t have fun and now I’m hungover and ashamed.” It’s so freeing.
Way to go man, you got this shit all day, everyday !!! One quote that helped me so much when I first got sober was "Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not who some one else is today". Wish you all the best, much love and mad respect.
I feel like a lot of these older pro skaters are aging like fine wine. It’s so cool to see them prioritize was is important and move on In life. It just goes to show it is NEVER to late to make a change.
Man this is the sh*t. I'm 34 y o and recently hit my two year sobriety. I wanted to stop drinking for SO many reasons, but the thing that finally made me realise.. was picking up skateboarding again at age 32.
Same here dude. 35 and now 3.75 years alcohol free and got back into skating after like 10 years off the board around the same time. Much better use of time and more fun too
I'm a skateboarder at heart I'm 29 still skating I've battled alcoholism for over 15 years my grandparents passed away from drinking they adopted me so I hit the streets young couch surfing skating for my sponsors (malt liquor and anything I can get my hands on) I recently caught two DUI's here in California went to jail both times and found myself in a homeless shelter due to not having a car anymore I'm sober now (6 months) thank God and I've met my beautiful fiance and moved into a house together and I plan on staying sober and not violating my probation to stay out of jail ... Addiction sucks keep skating !!
To be hear and see Ellington is 10 years sober after all the years of being in the "PissDrunks" is insane man... Watching him as I was coming up skating in Baker 3 and Emerica's This is Skateboarding and the Chaos that surrounded them... Him, Dustin Dollin, Ali Boulala... To make it out and be where he is today is a miracle and a blessing. Just continue to do the next right thing and Congrats brotha!
The arc of Ellington and the other skaters from the Baker/PissDrunx era moving into a sober lifestyle is really inspiring. Appreciate you sharing this!
Growing up during this era and watching all these guys, everything just felt normal in how they portrayed themselves. Then one day you realize the body count around you. The harsh reality is that there are people who can come out clean, but there’s more who get swept away into an even darker world. Yes it was fun. Yes it was entertaining. But what’s the cost of it all? When you’re young it’s really hard to reconcile with that. It’s great to see people like Erik influencing people another way. 👏👏👏
Seeing all these legends getting sober is so fucking cool honestly!!! Back then it was how much you can get fucked up but nowadays it’s how long you can go without getting fucked up🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽bless up to all the Sober Peeps much respect🫶🏽🫶🏽
@Deeplands I meant that i got to experience what it would be like to attend a "speaker" meeting of alcoholics anonymous with Erik Ellington as the "chair" person. Hearing his experience, strength, and hope, yet not having to voluntarily commit a dollar to the donation basket or "7th tradition". It was meant as an inside joke for any fellow Alcoholics. As it is very clear, by the words and phrases Erik is using to describe his journey that he attends alcoholics anonymous. I hope this helps, good luck with your English! Dear Ellington: sorry to break your anonymity, but if it saves one life, blah, blah, blah. We're all proud of you!
I just made 13 months sober this month. I think the last 20+ years of heavy drinking took a toll on my body, I used drugs and alcohol to suppress my PTSD from time in service. I’m still learning who I am and dealing with a lot of buried issues. I’m able to work through them as I’m sober but it’s a long road ahead. Good for Eric taking the steps.
Been sober for 4 but i will say of all the benefits including my skateboarding, the constant feeling of anxiety for things your mind didnt let you process while drinking has been a uphill battle but thats why I skateboard. Thats my therapy. Good shit Ellington!
3 months will become 6, 6 will become 12 and so on and every single day gets better and easier. Congrats dude, sobriety is the best feeling in the world. Im 40 as well and spent most my life in a drug and alcohol fueled daze, got sober at 32 and have never felt better. Although it took a while to feel like a "person" again and there was a fuck load of blood, sweat and tears in that first year but it was all worth it. Much love and mad respect.
I was never much of a drinker, my issues was with drugs. But it used to coincide with skating. Every day at the park someone had a bunch of 40s. So it's really cool to see the guys who, with lack of a better explanation, glorified that behavior, really speak against it. Look at how many skaters lives were ruined because of drinking. Ali boulala, and the one that REALLY hurts me, Cory Kennedy. I can't imagine where that dude would be now if it wasn't for that incident.
I got into 3 accidents because of drinking heavily. 1st, broke my femur while skating drunk and the other 2 was a dui motorcycle accident. I’m working on myself now. I know I can’t be totally sober but at least I can minimize my intake. It’s been 2 weeks now after my last accident and I feel I lost interest in alcohol a little bit. I congratulate you Erik for the 10 yrs sobriety!
@@viracocha03I agree, just don't think of it like quitting. Just say you're gonna take a break. No specific time range, just take a break. My break has been about a year now and have no desire to drink again. But I still consider it a break and not quitting. Also NA beer helps when I'm in social situations and want a drink in my hand and to sip on. You got this dude!
It's crazy Ellington has video proof of his shenanigans and his bottom, all mine is just hersey. However, we can both save people's lives with our stories, and that's what this program is all about. 10years last February. There is hope.
I have a weird feeling about the whole video tho. I feel like none of this would have ever happened without alcohol involved. We should be thankful that we were degenerates but still move on from it. In the process somehow not promote it to the youth.
I grew up in the 90s, so I was heavily influenced by the piss drunx era. I did a year without booze recently. It was very eye opening. I used to drink quite a lot. Now I rarely drink, and if I do it is usually very little. It is simply not worth the side effects.
I saw Eric perform a series of half flips on the tamest bank on the Slam CIty Jam course. He'd roll up, flip the board a half flip and land grip down. Then he went back to the stands for the remainder of the weekend. Holy shit tho, nothing compared to Andrew that weekend. He's allergic to alcohol!!
Ellington single handedly kept the BS Bigspin relevant to skateboarding during the years when it (the bigspin) wasn’t considered “cool” to do them. True ripper, true survivor!
Alcohol is a crappy, crappy drug. It’s the one that’s managed to remain socially acceptable because most people can do it regularly and still hold a job. They’re also more likely to put up with a crappy job, because it diminishes ambition and creativity.
I hated Ellingtons style as a kid but now I find it so authentic. Im coming up on 5 years sober so its cool to see a lot of these guys I grew up watching coming out the other side of it too.
I've done it all. But I didn't become and alcoholic until my late 30s. I can't imagine how anyone could drink excessively and get up and skate. Enjoy your youth. Because the bitch slap of age is coming for us all.
You’re obviously too immature to understand what is going on here Although yes I agree that it’s weird to flex being sober, but that’s not what most people, especially this video, are attempting to do. And that’s more about who the person is, shallow and always wanting to appear ‘better’ than the next man But yes, soberness is definitely better than having a few drinks....for those who are prone to addiction / substance abuse. It’s not worth the risk It’s not something that’s seen in the same way, but look how many people are fat / overweight. That is substance abuse / addiction, just in a more acceptable form. Obesity costs the healthcare system and society to a much greater degree than alcoholism, when considering all the social & economic factors
Alcoholism is a myth. They literally have people running around saying “I havent drank a drop in 37 yeaaars!” Calling themselves that. 12 steps may have been a legit thing before but now its a new age mk ultra device for robbing people of their own dignity and conscious free will
I met this dude one time like 20 years ago and I still think he is a jerk. Mark appleyard was soty that year and he was waaaayyy more chill and nice. When I met them
dudes waking up in their late 30's developing compassion for others. selfishness is a blessing and a curse. wish we could look closely and give help more so ur homie doesn't have to get to a rock bottom respect,everything comes at a different time for everyone, i guess you have to go thru ur whole life hurting other people to realize u need some compassion for others..sucks it has to be that way. some people take care of addicts their entire life and are also fucked up (how are ur kids, wife?)
5:00 if he's sober.....meh nevermind I won't even say it.... but let's just say.....pills and other things don't make you "sober" just cause you haven't had a drink I will drink to this....LOL
he souds fairly educated. He cant put the weight on hiumself of suposively having been a bad influence on kids. it was the 2000's. We were all doing that. They just happened to be making cooler tricks while at it lol
If you can't learn to moderate your alcohol intake in your thirties then my all means quit. I'll never be a quitter though. I'm 39 and drink probably twice a month. I don't know how anyone in our age group can drink more than that. The hangovers get insanely bad, which in turn helps me moderate my drinking even more. This guy will probably drink again later and life and see that it's not like it was back in the day and is easier to control. Marijuana is the good drug.
I think a lot of people are waking up and realizing that sobriety is where it's at if you want to remain a productive human being. Congrats on 10 years.
