    Having been a moderate/heavy drinker for 7 years and feeling the effects on my body and some recent health scares, this video is just that much more of a motivator to finally quit, which I'm on day 4. Wish me luck and if you're in a similar situation, prayers to you.

      I used to drink a lot during my life many years ago much out of depression issues. But seen the worst occur with a violent ex whom later died doing the same thing of consuming alcohol resulting in my own suicide attempt back in the days after returning from my deployment overseas. My depression levels has decreased a lot and currently on very strong medications due to my injuries from overseas and depression levels. As a result of this, I am blessed to not be drinking any longer and it is very rare that I pick up a single drink every few years usually during a family gathering. I am also single owning everything I ever wanted in life therefore I feel no need to ever drink alcohol ever again as it can destroy a relationship and I do not want anyone hurt emotionally or otherwise and alcohol itself can destroy a relationship and never helps a true relationship. I rather see people around me happy enjoying life to the fullest extent personally.

      I stopped drinking after I was roofied back in March. Even 1 single drink makes me feel sick and can barely finish it. It was an unintentional kick of a habit. Even though I wasn’t a “heavy” drinker, I noticed my skin is so much better and knowing I won’t wake up hungover is so relieving. Congratulations on your sobriety & I wish you the best of luck!

    I’m five days away from 6 months of sobriety, I’m currently on step 4 in AA and have some legal matters hanging over my head. There trying to make it out as if I was bat ish crazy when I encountered the police. I was suffering from alcohol poisoning which hasn’t been mentioned at all, it’s been a tuff go with being in the service industry and not being able to work for a year on top of being denied unemployment. Deaths in the family & strained finances aren’t an excuse for my actions, but what I’m being charged is pretty ridiculous. No matter, I’m sober and grateful that I am alive and carry the feeling of “rock bottom” everyday to never return that state ever again.

    I began drinking at the age of 13, but I started drinking heavy at 15/16, and I would drink every weekend, or sometimes even every other day. At times I would binge drink with my friend's at the time, and we'd stay up until 9am sometimes until 1pm just drinking, and doing blow. Anyway I finally began to feel the effects of both in 2017 when I began to get heart palpitations. I basically began to incorporate lots of fruits, and vegetables into my diet like literally every fruit, and veggie you could think of, and I quit drinking, for a few months, and it went away. This was in July 2017 to September 2017 then I basically slowly went back to the same lifestyle, for another 8, or 9 months. I then calmed down again in July 2018 to about February 2019 because I had moved from the big city my hometown of Chicago to quiet El Paso. Anyway when I returned the same thing, for another 5 months, and then back to Texas, for 7 months, and once again when I was in Texas I only drank a few time's in a half of year period. I finally returned to Chicago, for good in July of 2020, and by April of 2021 I began to feel strange in my abdomen. I was convinced it was my liver, or pancreas, so I quit drinking immediately. I then quit the blow in May because the pain wouldn't go away. I even stopped smoking cannabis in late May because I was getting worse despite quitting the other 2 drugs of choice. By mid June it felt very hot in my abdomen, and it felt as if it was going to explode. The pain was excruciating I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Anyway I went to the hospital in June of 2021, and was diagnosed with Diverticulosis. Google says the cause is unknown, but come on it doesn't take a Rocket Scientist to know that poor diet combined with excessive drinking, and snorting was the cause of my body's deterioration. I went on a Vegan diet, and this honestly helped me, but not as fast as the Kombucha fermented Tea's. They have like positive bacteria probiotics basically, and it fixed me up real quickly the inflammation went down immediately I couldn't believe it. Anyway I tried sipping a little in September of 2021, and it would hurt a little in my lower left abdomen, so I told myself yup it's over Josh you had your fill. Gonna be like 1 year of sobriety in a few weeks. In late October it'll be one year of sobriety from blow. I still smoke cannabis since it's legal in my state of Illinois, and it's never made me feel drained, and dehydrated like the other two vices I had. The last thing I need to do now is to cut down on my consumption of meats, and junk food in general. This channel also has a video on the effects unhealthy food has on the human body, and mind, and I greatly appreciate it. Knowledge is powerful, and once it happens to you that's when you start to take it seriously. Heck I know people who have life threatening illnesses, and still continue to do what they're doing. I guess their life right? If they wanna die an agonizing death that's on them however not me uh uh I love life. I was scared straight if you do drink I guess all I can say is drink responsibly, and in moderation. I hear a few cups a day is actually beneficial to our health. Although the problem with us Human's is we lack self control, and we always want more. Anyway God Bless you all, and I hope you all stay safe, and live a long healthy life 🙏🏻

      @@LebronShaqthe2nd I actually had my very first sip of beer at 6 as well. My uncle gave me some red dog. At the time I had obviously never had a taste of any kind of Alcohol since I was 6, so my taste buds hadn't acquired a taste. As, for rookie numbers, or being a lightweight I don't know what you're talking about. I literally stated I would drink every other weekend, OR every other day. Perhaps you missed that part? I don't think a 24 pack of Modelo's or Corona's is lightweight along with 3 to 7 shots of whatever hard liquor we're drinking, and maybe even a few chasers. Although I didn't really like chasers as I knew the sugar would make me more dehydrated. I preferred drinking it straight in shots even though as I stated you actually get more drunk drinking chasers depends on how much Alcohol you're actually consuming. For me yea a 24 pack, 3 to 7 shots, 7 to 14 blunts, and an 8ball of yay was the norm. Also not a competition on who drinks more I'm just simply stating my own personal experience from drinking consistently from the tender age of 13 (still a boy literally developing) to the age of 27, and overall my point is that the video is true. It's actually ridiculous that we need video's to tell us what Alcohol can do to the human body, and mind. We have this video, and I tell my personal experience, and still you tell me those are rookie numbers? Lol it's like you're saying "Haha I can drink more than you" If you want go ahead it's your life I also stated that in my original comment. Your life man you're the one that's going to go through whatever illness when it finally catches up to you 🤷🏻‍♂️

Ive seen to many friends trying to quit get treated like that by friends so they keep going and then they die. 3 more dead in buffalo just this last week. I moved from buffalo ny to new orleans. A total party city but substances dont have the same hold on me. I think the warmth and sun and people just being better here helps. In buffalo i had to drink just to stand ppl socially. In new orleans ive been putting together a group of ppl who like to go out dancing and also want to do it sober now to. Got to help and protect each other. Its what community and being human is about. Not numbing your self with substances and bad food. Thats addiction. Alcohol causes more damage than any of them.

      the problem is that when you started drinking, probably it was with the wrong people, that motivated you to often ignore the warning mention 4min in the video...
      for me that is a signal to take a few cokes or waters so i don't get into the drunk stage...
      only been drunk in the pas 20 years, i think i can just about count those times on one hand, and almost all were as 20isch student , when you tend to test your limits.
      once you have tested your limits, just listen to those warning signs,
      but i fear you were badly guided into alcohol and are to preprogrammed now to ignore those warning so good you probably barely notice them.. so probably safer to stay off alcohol...

    I'm a sober alcoholic. Been sober for quite some time. It created so many problems for me. Living black out to black out..waking up in hospital detoxing. The whole addiction thing is extremely time consuming, complete money rinser and more importantly, it's completely soul destroying, I had to drink in order to delay the DTs, shaking, sweating, vomiting.
    The hallucinations are very real at the time and terrifying. Drink will often tell me it will solve a problem/dilemma. Or give me the comfort blanket that it did in my early years of drinking. My message to anyone out there in a relapse and want to stop, is to get to a hospital. Withdrawing from alcohol without the right detox/drugs, can (and is) be fatal. Day by Day....hour by hour.

    im glad i quit drinking when i was 19, where im from you could buy a beer at 14 and everything else at 16, i used to go to school and before school id go to a friends house who lived like 2 min away from the school walking and drink shots of vodka or whiskey, we would do the same during lunch hour and after dinner we would go out to the bars up until 3 am and repeat the following day, this went on for around 3 years, and i just had to say no more because i saw the hole i was digging for myself, now as a 24 year old people my age tend to make fun of the fact that i dont drink , that i dont go to clubs, what they dont understand is that i know myself and that life to me is really addictive, so i choose to stay away from those environments

    If ya drink too much and are trying to quit, ask your doctor about Naltrexone. I used to drink heavily. Now I hardly do. It takes the temptation feeling and cravings and minimizes them TREMENDOUSLY! It also takes away the effects of the alcohol. I can’t even get a buzz when I drink now.
    So it taps down the cravings and the effects.
    Try it. Ya won’t regret it!
    Peace to you all.

      I'm a heavy drinker, have been for about ten years now. Still as functional as ever, so it doesn't affect my work/life balance. I have to say that this video is completely different from what I've experienced since the beginning.
      Anyway, on yo your comment... Absolutely would not recommend naltrexone to anyone. You're right, it nullified any affects from drinking and made me not want to do it... But it also made me not want to eat or even drink water, and when I did, I was constantly vomiting. Glad it helped you though, I just wanted to share my experience and let everyone know that there are plenty of options out there.
