I drank for 35 years and seldom got a hangover. Sober ten years now..
Well'l Kev i have done Tia Chi for 4 years now to relax it beats alcohol hands down, no hangover next day or the sh*t's either does it for me.
Thank you for these videos, they are great help to many…..And your dogs are adorable 😊
This is what made me say enough…. I always did dry January 🙄…. This time 3/4 of the way into it, because that’s how long it took me to start feeling half human, I realized I enjoyed being not hung over more than being drunk…now, it’s a huge struggle sometimes for sure, good days and real bad…it’s hard but worth it!! What kind of life is having to drink to feel better….I’m still going….8 months….how idk sometimes, but I am.
i could listen to you all day! so much sense and no crap
Don’t know if this happens to other folks? I’m 17days alcohol free and I had a dream I was at a party and I was drunk I was struggling to walk straight. I never drank in my dream but I thought I must have because of the way I was feeling. I was feeling so bad but was saying I need to start again, I woke up and realised it was a dream thank goodness…
Thanks for all you’re doing. 💪😊
Blew me away absolutely amazing
I asked a man once when I was drinking, why don't you drink? He said "the beer makes me feel good, but 30 minutes later I want to feel like I did before I had the beer" so true.
A hangover is literally alcohol withdrawal people don't realise that.
I dont drink in week but have a load on a weekend. Then feel shit all week. But also on antidepressants now so its even worse. Takes a few weeks to really start feeling on the up again (energy, bowel habits, moods..) , and even 1 or 2 pints has an effect. Trying to giveup the poison for good 👍
Thanks for the video kevin, keeps me mindful and on track
100% right it’s why I don’t want to drink I do a bender few times a year and every time I feel bad a few days on the beer and it’s insane I don’t even no why I do it going for it now.
Kevin , at what point was of your Journey was you able to go to a pub , bar or even walk though the alcohol isle of a supermarket without the temptation of buying some.
I'm on day 52 and would love to go to a pub for a AF beer but at the moment I feel I might be temped to buy the real stuff.
if watching this video doesnt put you off drinking poison i dont know what will.brilliant video
Are you from Newcastle?
After 5 mos of quitting drinking I definitely notice the lack of dopamine. Even said to my therapist today drinking 3 or 4 IPAs was my happy place while I was dealing with an incredibly toxic situation and I miss that part of drinking. I'm also glad you mentioned glutamate as well. I've been taking 5 HTP to support my body in making seratonin and have noticed a bit of difference and am intersted in rebuilding the systems I've harmed by drinking. Thank you!
Stomach ache. The trots. Retching, until you plod downstairs and if you have drink still there, you convince yourself having a drink it'll make you feel better! 33 days sober today!
its so strange.I a month and a few weeks ago to stop the flow mainly to do an ultra marathon..after the run i thought hey lets just keep this going.
im definately on the spectrum of drinking to much alcohol.. its been so interesting listening to these videos. deep down i know my life will improve if i never drink again.
i think you just blosom and become a wiser human to jump out of the alcohol matrix..
Nearly 4 months sober now, dont miss hang overs feeling like crap and taking days to feel normal..then I'd repeat every weekend.
Passing out in a pool of my own vomit, sleepless anxiety, hangovers that last for days, guilt, enough. The sad thing is back in my drinking days, I would likely have been too hungover to walk and experience such beautiful scenery.
I do not for a second miss the anxiety, confusion, bowel pain or the shaking every single day. That was my everyday existence. Being afraid to fill out a form because I couldn't control my hands. Shame. If anybody is interested Dr Anna Lembke is an addiction psychiatrist. The Andrew Huberman podcast with her is fantastic. Opens your eyes to the very real neurological symptoms etc of addiction. Helped me put shame aside and treat myself as a project that needs repair and restoration. An emotional control if you like.
Thanks again Kevin. Onwards and upwards friends 👍
Drinking on a Saturday, then not feeling 100% until Wednesday. Dark days indeed. Waking up without a hangover is a great feeling. Every day.
I wake up in the morning now and am hugely thankful for not being ill. I’ll never go back to that life.
Day 9 today. I honestly feel so good.
Great subject. My body has been so good to me and I need it to be strong and functioning well . I started thinking of my body as one of my pets. Would I poison my dog ? Would I feed my mule toxic sludge all night till hes sick? HELL NO! So why did I keep torturing my own body day after day! It part of the con. The fact we can laugh and take pictures of our friends as they lie on the floor in full toxic overload is proof that we havent fully realized the trap set for us. It's so good to be free of it all.
The dreaded hangover, such a beast! I remember mine lasting for a good two days. Always saying this was the last time. My last drunken binge caused severe anxiety, heart racing, puking. During what felt like death I decided this had to stop… 21 days today and I feel the best I have in years.
Feeling absolutely poisoned from alcohol is a great motivator to get rid of the habit. Especially true as you get older because your poor body has to work so hard to try to bring homeostasis back to your system. Thank you Kevin for an honest look at the harms of alcohol.
Ooof! My final-final hangover was spent in a jail cell on Suicide Watch. The dehydration was exacerbated by my sobbing until there was no liquid left in my head. I never, ever want to feel that bad again. So far, so good.
The physical pain was extremely horrible last time was the worst. It makes you afraid to stop drinking cause you know what's coming.
Hangovers started lasting 2-3 days and just feeling bleh all the time. I thought that was just how I felt. Stopping alcohol has given me so much energy it's incredible.
To me, the worst symptom I ever experienced was complete insomnia from 2am until I barely managed to get up with the first lights of the day, in a maniac cycle of guilt. Couldn´t get a proper rest anymore. I was completely exhausted. Lifeless. Day after day. Week after Week. Knowing deep inside, every morning, I was wasting my life in that stupid habit. Never a hangover AGAIN.
the Good thing is there are no hangovers when you don't drink alcohol.
Thanks , I'm on my 5th day of a bad hangover it feels like. Your vid popping up after a long time since I watched you, must be an omen to really follow your message. I must do this.
