    It is so good to see you Slayer!! Im so glad you're going strong. You never fail to send a meaningful message in your videos. Our addictions really can creep up on us. How our tolerance just builds and builds... and how the addiction feeds itself by stripping you of more and more over time and creating more chaos in your life... conditioning you to rely on it to manage everything that's going wrong.. or to just manage the symptoms of addiction. What are we missing out on by not drinking... hangovers, agitation, nausea, desperation, disappointment, grief, unnecessary added exhaustion and fatigue, headaches, guilt, avoidance... i could keep going! But you get the point. Thank you for being you, and thank you for the update!! All my love to you and the rest of our friends here in this community!! ❤😊❤😊❤

    Quit alcohol completely bout 3 weeks ago. Really not missing it. Was not a raging alcoholic. Could not do hard liquor often due to stomach issues. Mostly beer. At least a 12 pack 4-5 times a week for last 15 years. Only 3 weeks in and feelin better physically and mentally. Goodluck to you and thanks for sharing...

    I’m so glad you found value in yourself so that you could get thru those horrible days of poisoning yourself almost to death. You would have died such a sad death, all alone, not thinking anyone even cared… as many alcoholics often do. But by the Grace and Mercy of God, you decided to pick yourself and fight to LIVE!! I’m so proud of you for how far you’ve come. I can see the life back in your eyes, compared to old videos of when you are in the hospital, and it warms my heart. Just think, if you had let that Evil win, you wouldn’t be here today on this channel, helping thousands of people who are currently where you once were. What a waste that would have been!
    I’m just over 6 months sober, and I’m so overjoyed that we are doing this together💕

    First off, congratulations on sticking to your sobriety. Let this be a reminder of what you don’t ever want to go back to! We are all rooting for you!
    I remember towards the end of my drinking, it was terrifying! I was always sick, first thing I would do it throw up, then immediately start throwing those shots back. And if I didn’t have it, I would be the first at the liquor store. just like you, started drinking at work. The cycle was absolutely disgusting but it’s just another reminder of a dark place I never want to encounter again! 350 days sober over here🙏🏼 you got this!!

    Very relatable video once again. Thank you for putting these out. I really do get a lot out of them. I definitely relate to the full time job thing. Used to start my workday off with 3 Voodoo Ranger tallboys and just keep it going through the day. Would brush my teeth constantly after each time I drank so coworkers or customers didn't smell it. Drinking in the bathroom at work and hiding shooter bottles or Voodoo cans in the trash under paper towels. Drinking on both breaks and my lunch. Then I'd get off work drive home drunk and then it was game on. Get hammered on liquor, wake up the next day and do it all over again. It was exhausting. Drinking vodka or whiskey all day long on my days off. I am super glad you're still sober. Proud of you. What you asked about "what are you missing out on by not drinking, is one of the best things I think we can ask ourselves. It really puts it in perspective. One thing I've just started doing but haven't finished is making a list. One one side is all the positive things alcohol did for me. On the other side is all the negative things it caused. I can tell you, it's a very one-sided list so far.

Also asking ourselves that question really is helpful, like really what are we missing out on?? Nothing. It’s total insanity!! I’ve made a list as well in the past and it’s always very one sided! Much love brotha! 🙏

      Well, honestly we lose the 40 minutes a day of feeling a good buzz/reduced anxiety when starting drinking upon waking up. But we have to get to a point where we realize that 40 minutes good feeling is not worth all the bad after-effects. But that's how deceptive addiction is. We need to realize and accept why our brains remember the euphoria from drinking.

    Isn't it crazy how fast we build up a tolerance to a poison like alcohol?!? At my worst, I was putting away a handle (1.75 L) of brandy or whiskey pretty much every week, plus several bottles of wine and at least a couple 12-packs of beer or hard cider. Sometimes I would get vodka, rum, or gin, but whiskey and brandy were my go-to beverages! Honestly, I would drink what ever I could get my hands on later in my addiction. I never thought the day would come where I would be drinking so much booze. In total, I was easily doing well over 100 drinks per week!! Man, I'd walk out of the liquor store with a box filled with bottles of just straight liquor almost every trip! Needless to say, this ended up costing me a fortune! Never missed work/school somehow, but I always felt like crap! I'm glad it's all over though, and I'm glad you're still sober, my friend! Thanks for the update, keep doing your thing brother! 🙏❤

Or if i start one by the next day I'll have a corner left. Enough to get me by until I hit the liquor store. Lost so many jobs by smelling like alcohol. Sleeping on the job, sneak drinking, you name it. Im not sober yet but i def have been trying to not be drinking on the job, because i have a lot to lose and don't want to wind up homeless because I'll REALLY start to spiral at that point. Again thank you for sharing it means alot.

When I'm in public Im wearing sunglasses and a hoodie so I dont get recognized. I do plan to make youtube videos in the future but I wanna do it when I'm in a better headspace and the video ideas I have require me to be sober so I can actually provide some wisdom to people to people who may be in a similar situation as me shit been brutal lately

    Let me start by saying how nice it is to see you on here. I appreciate you posting because I do wonder how you’re doing. It’s great that you’re staying busy and FOCUSED on your sobriety.
    You know friend, your story serves as a testimony of how things progressively get worse when alcohol or any substance is consumed. No one starts drinking a half a gallon of hard liquor but once your tolerance goes up so does the amounts. My experience when I was drinking was that it would increase more and more but still kept it together. But that also can hinder your ability to see what’s happening. It creeps up, although I was never a daily drinker (thankfully) no amount of alcohol is good or healthy. You know what really hit me, when you said “What am I really missing?”, nothing. It’s wasted time and money…and with the health implications there’s no way of knowing where it will end. Bottom line, don’t ever look back. Don’t live in regret, everything in life is an experience and a lesson to be learned. You evolved as a person because of this awful poison but I agree 100% that your soul was never and is not defined by the person you became because of the poison. Whether it’s trauma, depression, anxiety, or just looking to enhance one’s personality….we are all better people without it. Perfectly imperfect. Much love always and peaceful thoughts.
    ❤️‍🩹🤍

    I never really got into liqour unless I was at a party or bar/club, but when this was at its worst for me I was drinking at least 4 beers a night after work and on my days off I was having 6 or more beers, doing nothing but drinking alone.
    Eventually I quit my job due to depression and ended up doing nothing but drinking beer all day for about three months. A standout moment, I remember going to the grocery store at 11am to only buy four tallboy drinks. I was drinking by noon most days. Even when I had six beers in a day it wasn't enough. I'd walk to the gas station or drive, a stupid decision. I also remember driving to the gas station having already had four beers at home to get more. I am very fortunate nothing happened doing something as stupid as that.
    I would go to parties with my friends and drink more than them, even if I had my 'normal' the day before. I went to a party two years ago and got black out drunk due to depression. I was scared to quit for so long because I learned about getting a seziure.
    Like I've commented on your videos before, I started taking this seriously last summer. Had only drank about 17 days since August and it was never more than six beers. January of this year was the first time I've ever been sober for a full month since I wanted to quit, still going.
    Thanks for making these videos Slayer. I feel like if I didn't discover how horrible this can get from your videos I don't think I would have quit the way I have.

    I almost got to 1L hard liquor as well (usually from rum then to vodka eventually and just water as a chaser). I can now hold down almost that much without vomiting. But when I vomited a little blood for the first time in my last serious binge I saw that as a warning from God and instantly stopped in fear. I don't know what damage I did but at a blood test after 4 months sober my liver enzymes were all normal. But it's definitely health anxiety that makes me want/need to stay sober. I learned the hard way that I cannot be an alcoholic the rest of my life like some others can. I don't fear dying (in fact I honestly look forward to it) but I fear slowly and painfully dying from alcohol.

I also had a glass there I didn’t like to drink from a bottle for some reason. Such a stupid behavior. It’s really insanity. Anyway, have a couple of questions if you don’t mind. What was your longest binge and you mentioned a liter of a booze but I don’t know the brand you named is it as strong as vodka for example? Just curious. My drink of choice was vodka and sometimes whiskey around 0.7 of the liter a day. Also, I liked very strong beer don’t even imagine how I could drink that shit.

    That quantity question is important, it's hard to find reliable information on that, I'd say your tolerance is not that high if you black out at 1000 ml of spirits (which is a good thing! ) some people can do much more. Myself I'd say I topped at 600 ml, rarely blacking out, but what's more concerning I'm up to 400-500 again now (equivalent in wine, about 2 bottles, I can't afford spirits anyway anymore) with quite a good tolerance which is not a good sign to be honest 🤔😕
    It's good to do some maths because numbers don't lie, the addicts brain will try to rationalize/minimize/forget.
    I don't remind how much I drank during many periods of my drinking career, if had kept track maybe I would understand better how/why things evolved... (there is a correlation with stress/life events etc. for sure...)

So yes but that rum is 40 degrees this stuff is really strong, in the end my intake was not far from yours I suspect it's my addict brain that wants to rationalize... Still now when watching videos from you and others, it tells me I'm better off... The truth... I'm not really...I wasn't in the hospital for now but this could easily happen...
