Ive been there too, brother. That knowledge you have is step 1. Sometimes that step is the one that takes the longest to overcome. And if you do decide to go that route and fight this battle. Just know its one worth fighting! Peace and love!
As someone who is just over 8 years clean, every single verse of this mix hits in it's own way. I'm so grateful to Dax for not only having the courage to make a song like this, but also for using his platform to help others. This is genius. On another note, I'm not sure who the woman is on that third verse but DAMN GIRL! That was incredible!
It’s comforting to know you’re actually a sober person because of your line “being sick and tired of being sick and tired.” Five years this may for me. Congratulations with the three coming up. Carry the message.
Nearly 3 years. Something to be so proud of. I am proud of you. Great songs, unique voices, great lyrics what a song!! It is also guts in a bottle; when wasted you may feel you can say anything, do anything ect. Yes I know family members still in that dark nightmare of "this world is to much and a bottle will make it better. We are there for you, always. Greetings from South Africa
Thanks so much! Love that they spread awareness. Many people still going through this struggle. Grateful for your support ❤️🙏🏽. Greetings from Belgium.
Never be silent in this subject, it's so important to keep in people's mind (even if they aren't ready to be sober yet)! You're saving lives, with ZERO judgment, that I can tell anyway. "Kudos to those who can still get high without problems... keep the humor in it" FACTS. I've said before, my parents have been sober 30 years this year, and my mom still throws out jokes that throws my husband through a loop (I'm almost 39 so I'm used to it), but I'm glad you're finding comedy/joy/honesty in sobriety!
So important. Even if it doesnt click now. As you said it might stay in the back of someone's mind and eventually make its way to the surface. Thanks for sharing that. Very inspiring to hear that your parents are 30 years sober. And they can make jokes about it. What would life be without humor? Thanks again for watching. Have a great weekend!
@@SaeedReacts. I'm doing my best man. I'm a correctional officer in a women's state prison. I've single handed saved the lives of six women since I've been here but what it's doing to me there's no cure for. I've done things I can't deal with and seen things done I don't want to deal with.
My man....what you put on display here in this reaction is YOUR superhero power brother. Keeping it 💯...THIS is power, strength, courage...I feel you through this man. Subbed. Thank you for this, your reaction IS as powerful as this mix.
I was going down that path, but luckily I got out of the environment that was really bad for me in time. When the first thing I thought about in the morning was whiskey, I knew I was heading into somewhere I didn't want to be, so I managed to get out and am so grateful now ❤ stay strong, much respect from 🇧🇻
I got much further along that path that i wanted to. Not a great place to be. Glad i got out and very happy you recognized the red flags and warning signs. That is definitely a big one (that i ignored) Thanks for sharing. Love from Belgium ❤️
I'm happy i found this reaction. Im not ready to stop drinking yet. But have gotten way better than i was. I try every day to do better. Thank you for this
Thanks, man! Keep going! I never thought it possible, that 1 year mark seemed so far away that i thought it would never happen. Congrats on your journey, brother ❤️
Goin on over 3 months sober. This song was a big part of me breaking the habit. A part of my health is suffering from the alcohol abuse. But I’m proud to be clean.
i just found your channel not long ago. i don't comment much but i had to on this one... i deal with this everyday i feel like i have it under control just a 6 pack after work but if i get offered liquor its over. i've drank for like 25 years and i'm 40. its all caming down as i get older but its not over for me yet. i'll make it once i decide to so. thats the hard part. much luv!
Hi Saeed, good for you sober!!!! Zelf ben ik 13 jaar clean van speed, alcohol ook maar de laatste tijd heb ik toch een glaasje gepakt. Niet zoals eerst, maar door de pijn van mijn ziekte en niet kunnen slapen. Wandelen met m'n hond gaat al 4 jaar niet.... maar excuses hebben we altijd genoeg voor de sociaal geaccepteerde verslaving. Dankjewel voor je eerlijkheid in je reacties... groetjes uit Nederland ❤ En idd wat die mooie dame zegt als iemand schreeuwt en niemand het hoort heb je dan eigenlijk wel een stem....
I came close to falling down the slippery slope in late 2020 into early 2021. Luckily, I stopped myself. The pain still sucks to this day. I still drink, but it's casual now and on special occasions. I don't feel like I used to wanting to drown my problems away with a bottle of burbon during that 6 - to 8-month window.
You're absolutely right. One day, it just clicks. Unfortunately, however, that day is more of a wake-up call from tragedy or deep regret in most cases. I'm a father of 2 fantastic boys who dont need a hungover father every morning. My wife found me passed out in my car after a night of binge drinking. That was the last time i touched the stuff. I dont need it, and going clean starts putting your priorities in order. My kids need a dad, not a drunk. And that became my priority.
Ok, so Dax re-released this "new" Mega remix. The original remix is about 20 mins long and has many of these same artists + many more on it. It came out in May 2022. This was so impactful that he redid it again now. You should watch the original one. It's so GOOD! Also, congratulations on your sobriety ✌🏼🫶🏼
@@SaeedReacts. You're welcome. I am new to your channel. I just subscribed today. I am now going to binge your Ren reactions. I was looking for NF reactions but you don't do him.
Allereerst van harte kerel, bijna 3 jaar nuchter... Topprestatie, echt! Zelf heb ik ook alle redenen om te stoppen met de biertjes maar zit nu in de fase van '1 is teveel en 10 is te weinig'😢 En dan zijn er nog die 'pretsigaretjes' erbij... Er komt een dag dat ik er klaar mee ben, maar wanneer..? Aaaanyways, nogmaals gefeliciteerd met wat je bereikt hebt man! Echt een prestatie 👊
Thanks, man! Snap ik. Heb daar ook gezeten, het is de volgende fase die gevaarlijk wordt. Als je aan niks anders meer kan denken van het moment je opstaat. En die vraag die je stelt is wat ik ook altijd afvroeg. Wanneer? Er staat geen datum op. Bij mij was het helaas tot het niet meer anders kon. Stay safe!
11 years 2 months sober myself in the heart of my addiction i didn't care about anyone or anything except finding 1 more drink i lost my wife and my son wound up doing ten years in prison my family don't want me around them I've spent the last 11 years trying to rebuild bridges
Hang in there, man! I have been there. Its a dark and overwhelming place. But it is possible to get out of. Definitely a battle worth fighting and dont hesitate to look for a supportsystem and ask for help. No shame in that , brother. Take care!
The biggest struggle for me is "Am I just kidding myself" The liquor shop is never far Neither the store, nor the bar. Am I just faking this climb, lying, or am I winning this time? Why were you the friend I never had a dad, something that picks me up when I'm sad. All I know is I can't let you get me, my family, I hope I continue to see. I'll live with you for the rest of my days, till I die, the other voice sidetracking my ways. When I look back I wish I knew, you were evil, not someone cool. Not today devil not tomorrow, maybe next week, maybe ill drown my sorrow For now I'll keep resisting the urge avoiding you, even when I'm on the verge.
I feel that! Its definitely very hard to do it by yourself, but not impossible. Ofcourse when one is physically depended on a substance and especially alcohol, its dangerous to quit cold turkey without medical assistance. I did it a few times and it was not pretty. Be safe, my friend! Its a battle worth fighting.

Listening to this drunk knowing I should quit is bringing tears to my eyes
Ive been there too, brother.
That knowledge you have is step 1. Sometimes that step is the one that takes the longest to overcome.
And if you do decide to go that route and fight this battle.
Just know its one worth fighting!
Peace and love!
A person won't change until the pain that remains the same is greater than the pain it takes to change.
Agreed. That is exactly what i have learned over the years.
As someone who is just over 8 years clean, every single verse of this mix hits in it's own way. I'm so grateful to Dax for not only having the courage to make a song like this, but also for using his platform to help others. This is genius.
On another note, I'm not sure who the woman is on that third verse but DAMN GIRL! That was incredible!
Congrats on your 8 Years. Definitely agree, every verse brings something that hits hard!
It’s comforting to know you’re actually a sober person because of your line “being sick and tired of being sick and tired.” Five years this may for me. Congratulations with the three coming up. Carry the message.
Thanks! Congratulations on five years in May. Life is better now!

Congratulations on nearly 3 years being sober, good for you brother!
Thank you 🙏🏽❤️
I remember picking up a friend on the gas station looking like a bump but he turn his life around and is sober now thank Jesus for it look for him.
❤️🙏🏽
Honestly the line "I know that it can't kill me cause I'm already dead" is the most powerful for me. Because that's exactly how I feel.
I feel you! Definitely had those thoughts a lot too.
Hope you get out of that place, brother!

Great to hear 3 years is amazing. I’m goin on six. Keep up the good work my brother
Thanks! And congrats on your sobriety! That is inspiring.
Congratulations on 3 years that is awesome! You are very wise about your addiction.

I'm happy i found this reaction. Im not ready to stop drinking yet. But have gotten way better than i was. I try every day to do better. Thank you for this
A bit better each day will get you there, my friend! Stay safe and take care!
I’m 8.5 years sober but I couldn’t see 24 hours before….. It’s worth it people…😊
Congratulations!
I definitely relate to that. 24 hours seemed impossible, let alone 1 year. Definitely worth it.
You can do it! I don't know you but from what I've seen and heard I believe in you! You got this! 🙏🙏👏👏
Thanks so much! Appreciate that!
Just came across your reaction and you're clear and passionate about journey is refreshing. NEW subscriber.

Breaking habits is extremely difficult. Congratulations on 3 months! Hope that your health keeps improving!
God has blessed me with 27 yrs of sobriety and some change and this song hits the pain from every angle possible! Awesome remix from people who know!
Congrats on your longterm sobriety!
THANK YOU for addressing Shame.. it's such a huge & crippling issue. I think it's one of the most overlooked things NO ONE talks about
It definitely is a very big factor. And it does help to talk about it. Take away the stigma a bit.
Take care!

En idd wat die mooie dame zegt als iemand schreeuwt en niemand het hoort heb je dan eigenlijk wel een stem....
13 jaar clean! Top! Proficiat.
Ik snap het, zo begon het bij mij ook pijn en slaap. Het leven maakt het ons niet makkelijk. Zorg goed voor jezelf ❤️
Sick and tired of being sick and tired. I have thought that exact thing for years.
Its exhausting! But for me and probably many of us its necessary to be able to get sober.
Addiction is a demon that is hard to control but it is a powerful force that can be beat.
100%
I came close to falling down the slippery slope in late 2020 into early 2021. Luckily, I stopped myself. The pain still sucks to this day. I still drink, but it's casual now and on special occasions. I don't feel like I used to wanting to drown my problems away with a bottle of burbon during that 6 - to 8-month window.
Glad you caught it in time.
I had those periods you described over almost 15 years and then later it finally caught up with me.
Take care, my friend!
You're absolutely right. One day, it just clicks. Unfortunately, however, that day is more of a wake-up call from tragedy or deep regret in most cases. I'm a father of 2 fantastic boys who dont need a hungover father every morning. My wife found me passed out in my car after a night of binge drinking. That was the last time i touched the stuff.

It definitely usually comes at a low point or sometimes after several.

Great reaction. This is an old remix, but he had everyone together for the video with a few new artists
Thanks! Great that they still got to make a video and bring more awareness.
@SaeedReacts. Can you do a reaction to the new version? There are different artists in the video version
This gets me emotional, I’ve never had a drop of alcohol
It hits hard!
God is good!!! 4 years clean!!! Together we recover!!! Keep going champ!!! I LOVE YOU HUGS ❤
Congrats on your 4 years, brother ❤️

Man watching this drunk is interesting. My biggest respect to people who have found sobriety such as yourself.
Your not alone brother...
11 years 2 months sober myself in the heart of my addiction i didn't care about anyone or anything except finding 1 more drink i lost my wife and my son wound up doing ten years in prison my family don't want me around them I've spent the last 11 years trying to rebuild bridges
Congratulations on your sobriety and i wish you a lot of strength and succes for rebuilding the relations with your family.
@@SaeedReacts. It's a long slow process
Got it man im dealing with this and i cant top im working trying but im 39 im drowning i have no voice 😢
Hang in there, man! I have been there. Its a dark and overwhelming place. But it is possible to get out of. Definitely a battle worth fighting and dont hesitate to look for a supportsystem and ask for help. No shame in that , brother. Take care!
2nd girl gives Serious Amy winehouse Vibes so good
ill drown my sorrows in this thing take hold filling like im not who i want i got waisted
The biggest struggle for me is "Am I just kidding myself"
The liquor shop is never far
Neither the store, nor the bar.
Am I just faking this climb,
lying, or am I winning this time?
Why were you the friend I never had
a dad, something that picks me up when I'm sad.
All I know is I can't let you get me,
my family, I hope I continue to see.
I'll live with you for the rest of my days,
till I die, the other voice sidetracking my ways.
When I look back I wish I knew,
you were evil, not someone cool.
Not today devil not tomorrow,
maybe next week, maybe ill drown my sorrow
For now I'll keep resisting the urge
avoiding you, even when I'm on the verge.
❤️🙏🏽
2 years 🎉🎉🎉

Congrats on 3 years sober. I know this is a bit late, but I think you should react to Withdrawals by Tom McDonald.
Thanks! Appreciate that! And thanks for the recommendation.
Please check Dax - "To Be A Man" (MEGA REMIX) [ft. Atlus, Phix, Brutha Rick, The Mediary, Thagreatwhite and MORE]
I did a reaction to the original in the very beginning on my channel. Have not done the mega remix yet.
I can't believe I was able to just walk away. Wish I could do the same with nicotine.
Grateful i did it as well. I quit everything on the same day (granted it wasnt the first attempt), but this time it stuck.
You can do it, brother!
I guess I’m kind of in the middle to late part where I want to put it down, but I can’t ask for help
I feel that! Its definitely very hard to do it by yourself, but not impossible.
Ofcourse when one is physically depended on a substance and especially alcohol, its dangerous to quit cold turkey without medical assistance. I did it a few times and it was not pretty.
Be safe, my friend!
Its a battle worth fighting.
Wow dude you're ridiculously handsome
And great reaction
Thanks so much!
