    I am a recovering alcoholic. I’ve been sober for over 2 years. What a gut wrenching video. So true to the life and path that we choose. I finally decided to change what the outcome of my life was going to be. I wanted something different from what my grandparents, my father and my uncles lives were and ended on. I decided to take control and ask for help from my loving Heavenly Father.

    Watching this and concentrating on the lyrics brought back some VERY painful memories. If you've lost someone you love due to complications of alcoholism, this will affect you like it did me...
    In 1975 the first love of my life and I split up after being together for four years, then thirty one years later we reconnected. Throughout that time he ended up in Utah and I in Pennsylvania. We both moved back to Montana in 2006 where we were originally from and started a new relationship picking up where we left off. With all the time that had passed, we never stopped thinking about each other nor did our love die. With that reconnection I knew he drank, but not as heavily as what he did. I adjusted to his addiction/disease and loved him for who "he" was. It was a difficult walk to follow and yes I'll be honest, there were times I felt I needed to walk away. The love I had for him was SO strong that I just couldn't and wasn't going to do it!! Thank God there was no violence whatsoever like this video shows...it was the pain of watching him slowly destroy and kill himself knowing there was nothing I could do that hurt so deeply. The demon ( which he called alcohol) controlled him he couldn't control it. I walked every painful step of the way with him doing what I could to help fight that Demon...We were together for two and a half years, married for one year and six days when he left me. His heart could no longer withstand the damage alcohol was doing to it and passed from a massive heart attack. God took him home to Heaven on March 31, 2009 freeing him from the pain and agony he was in. As for me...I'm doing the best I can to live without him and taking one day at a time as it comes to me.

    #LYRICS:
    I can honestly understand why it's over
    I can go through the motions of walking away
    I can give you the key and take my things back
    I can find plenty things to fill my days
    But I don't know how not to think about you
    When it's late at night and quiet
    And I know that I ought to be the one who is strong and just moves on
    But I probably turn down your road, knock knock on your door
    Fall back in your arms, wake up in the morning
    Hating myself for the way that I can't help the way I still want you
    I just don't know how not to, how not to, how not to [x2]
    You're like second nature baby, you're just like breathin'
    A melody that you hear and you can't forget
    The time goes by and I still need you
    Yeah, you were at the heartbreak of no regret
    But I don't know how not to think about you
    When it's late at night and quiet
    And I know that I ought to be the one who is strong and just moves on
    But I probably turn down your road, knock knock on your door
    Fall back in your arms, wake up in the morning
    Hating myself for the way that I can't help the way I still want you
    I just don't know how not to, how not to, how not to [x2]
    I don't know how not to think about you
    When it's late at night and quiet
    But I know that I ought to be the one who's strong and just moves on
    But I probably turn down your road, knock knock on your door,
    Fall back in your arms, wake up in the morning,
    Hating myself for the way that I can't help the way I still want you
    I just don't know how not to, how not to, how not to [x2]

    One of the best Dan + Shay music video's I've seen by far. Not only did I love how the music video doesn't shine away about Alcoholism and the addiction of alcohol but also it shows that if you have someone in your life that is positive influence and truly cares about your well being. You can accomplish and survive anything that life throws at you.

Helped a lot with depression PTSD anxiety. Just to cope with life. To forget the things I had burned in my brain. I was living like this for so long. I'm 26 now sober since February 4th, 2017. Not Long but it's a struggle a process but fighting everyday with temptation.. I'll never listen to this song the same but totally for a good reason. For now on this is reminding me of how strong we all are and WE can overcome this terrible disease of alcoholism or any addiction. Praying for all💚💚 xoxo

I'm sure everyone goes through hard times. Will power test us all. How strong are you? How beat down are you? How weak are you? Who's there for you? No matter what you control the out come. Just remember someone loves you matter what. Strive to be the person you want to be. Love yourself. Always remember the choices is yours. Love is a powerful tool.

    Thank you for creating a video of what alcoholism can really look like, and how it can look like if you quit. The video depicts what has happened in my 40 years...and although I didn't use AA...quitting has shifted my entire mindset, relationships with the people I love, allowed strength to push away those who were unhealthy, and start taking accountablity for the words and actions that left me spinning in circles. Sobriety is a beautiful thing.

    I fell in love at 20, the kind you see in movies where it's just *boom* when he enters the room and you're in love before you even know what happened. He was an alcoholic and a narcissist, he still plays mind games and can be evil. Tbh he really put me through it and I had 7 years of the best and worst times. I was heartbroken when I took our babies and left... I spent years crying over him and 5 years later he came back! With all the promises and the best intentions, and I had another year on the rollercoaster before it burnt down in flames again! It took time to heal and it took time to see it for what it is. Now I watch videos like this or see toxic relationships and I honesty feel sick. I pray that anyone struggling like this finds peace. 5 years since our final breakup... he's with someone (a fellow alcoholic) they are both trying to come off the drink/ 'cut down'... but he's a little bit more present and calls and sees our children more regularly. I'm nearly 2 years into a happy, healthy relationship with a guy I met 3 years ago. I don't take anything for granted, just enjoy what you have right now as much as you can.
    Love works both ways and you can't fight someones addiction or disease for them. Alcoholism will destroy you both if you're the only one fighting it and the addict can't. I wish any of you in this situation the best of luck and you are in my thoughts and prayers

Where It All Began came out right when my boyfriend and I started dating, it's pretty much the soundtrack to our relationship, and when From The Ground Up came out there was no doubt that would be the song we get married to.

    When I was in my second year of college, I met the love of my life. She was all I've ever dreamt of in a woman and more. We were together for nearly 2 years. We had a beautiful relationship. I can confidently say that the time we were together was the happiest we have both ever been in our entire lives.
    She is such a beautiful person, inside and out. You can get lost in her eyes. She is hands down the most caring and generous person I have ever met. The way she cares for her parents and her sister. I could not name a single flaw with her even if I had a gun in my mouth. The way she always cared for me and planned to make sure that I would be ok. How madly in love she was with me.
    She helped me to become a person that I never knew I could be. Helped me realize my full potential.
    She was the only one I could ever be vulnerable around, the only one I confided in, the first person I went to whenever I had to make a decision in life. Even though I was only 20 years old. I was confident that I wanted to marry her. Our love was so strong. Yes, there were bumps along the road as this was our first serious relationship. However, I always told myself that no matter what happens, we would always work on it and always bounce back. Problems are inevitable in life and I believe that time does heal even the deepest of scars.
    In October of 2020, I messed up big time. I will man up and own my mistakes. I started to lose focus and I did some things that I absolutely hate myself for. I will never forgive myself for the things I did.
    It is now January 10th of 2020, and she had decided to end our relationship yesterday.
    She stayed for nearly 3 months after. I did everything and more in order to prove I really was a changed person. I am 10 times better now than the version of me she first fell in love with.
    Do you know how painful it is to hear "I don't want this to work anymore" from the person you want to marry, the person you love the most in life? to hear them say that them being around you makes them feel worthless?
    I know people will say that I believe time heals, so that time can heal my broken heart. I can't help but wonder about all the things we could have done if I didn't mess it up. All the things I planned.
    I had planned to graduate this summer and propose to her the same summer. She loved sunflowers, I planned to take her to a sunflower field in the summer and propose to her as I pretended to take a picture of her looking into the sunflowers.
    We talked about our future, jobs, family, goals. We wanted to have 2 children. Zayn and Zara were names that we had in mind.
    I threw that all away because I was selfish and pathetic.
    We believed in soul mates. I still do, there is no doubt in my mind that she is the one for me.
    I don't know what to do. I don't want to move on. I don't want to think of anyone else or look for anyone else. I can't accept it.
    Losing the love of my life coupled with facing dismissal from my college program for a false accusation of cheating is a nice combo, isn't it?
    I hate myself So much. So much guilt. I don't deserve to even be alive.
    To you young guys with new relationships, stop letting your hormones control you, don't have wandering eyes. Loyalty and discipline are so admirable in relationships.
    She always loved trying new things. After a few calls with her, found out that she was 18 and had never tried hot chocolate. So when I asked her to be my girlfriend, I used a cup of hot chocolate from Dunkin to write down my message for her.
    I doubt she will ever find this comment. If she somehow does, keep drinking hot chocolate, please. I will always be in love with you honey.

    I'm not usually one to post comments on videos but this one...this one hit me hard. I was an addict for over 3 years and went to detox and rehab when I was only 18. I met my boyfriend last summer and I was in bad shape. I had just lost my job, could barely afford to eat and just didnt want to be here anymore. I havent touched anything since August because of him. He was an addict too but now we have each other to lean on. He doesnt know it but he saved my life. i felt like i was nothing until he showed me how fun life can really be sober. i still struggle every day but having him beside me gives me the strength to resist. to anyone dealing with an addiction, you CAN do it even if it feels like the whole world is against you. once you become sober you realize how valuable life is.

    I actually feel this song... To me it's not about the addiction to alcohol or drugs it about the addiction to someone and not being able to let go of them.. I am going through this at the moment... I am separated from my husband and I thought that my feelings for him were resolved but when I talked to him for the first time after he was released from prison after a year it brought up some of those feelings. Oh and when I saw him for the first time after that all these feelings and emotions came flooding back and where stronger than ever... See we didn't separate cause of problems between us it was cause I couldn't handle the drinking from Sun up to Sun down and he wasent ready to stop.. Before he went to prison we where gonna try to work things out... I want that chance especially now that we are sober.. I feel we deserve that chance... One last try before we just throw away 10yrs of our life together... I love him... I love you David Watkins...
    I could use some advice please... I'm really hurting from this...
