Thank you for expanding our understanding of alcoholism. The love of my life passed away at the age of 41. We had a 22 on and off relationship. I am broken that he chose alcohol over life. Thank you for filling in the missing pieces. We were not together the last two years of his life because of his drinking, he became so abusive I couldn’t take it. God bless you and I’m thankful that you are sober.

They aren’t suffering they are selling their advice. You are the real deal so it instantly gives us a family

I love your channel. Husband and I are both a little over a year into recovery from alcohol. He had to quit after his doctor told him under no uncertain circumstances can he drink again. He’s got cirrhosis, systemic gout and has had pancreatitis. My dad died of esophageal varices while going through chemo for lung cancer. He was a heavy drinker. I get the struggle. I appreciate your honesty and humility ❤. We’ve got a Jeep too! Mine is stick shift so he drives a truck 😂. We’ve got land in the Midwest, we hunt, fish, camp etc. So many are like us. The only time I don’t crave is when I’m in nature in solitude. The struggle is no joke. Thank you for sharing and helping break the stigma. If more people weren’t ashamed to come forward we could help so many more. God bless and Happy New Year to you and your family!

Hey! Thank you so much! That's great to hear!!!! Man! I love these stories!!!!! Sorry about your father... I know all about the esophageal bleeding, I've had it happen a couple of times, I am very very lucky to still be here. Thank you you so much for your word of encouragement! You have no idea how good it makes me feel to hear that! Your husband can't drive a stick? I had to learn to drive with a stick shift. Glad I did. My jeep is a love/hate relationship! I'm good with her for now... until something breaks on her again. I do all the work on it myself, one thing I love about them, they are rather easy to work on. And the outdoors.... I love them so much as well, especially camping along a raging rapid with a nice fire after a long day of kayaking, I miss it so much! Anyway... I could go on and on. Thanks again!!!! God bless

Oh no problem! I’ve got the Wrangler Freedom Edition, I commented on your IG. ❤ He can drive stick just doesn’t like to 😂. My flywheel will be dunzo soon and I’m more inclined to fix it myself and I enjoy that kind of stuff. I learned how to work on a manual transmission on a ‘69 Camaro and then have learned auto along the way. Oil changes brakes etc. Yeah my dad had radiation burns to his esophagus after cancer treatment but he drank through the whole thing. So while it wasn’t a complete shock, his oncologist told him he would be ok after the chemo and radiation. He was in total remission from the cancer we thought would kill him but died by his own devices. It opened my eyes big time but it still took me 3 years and my husband saving his own life to get me to get my act together. People who know, know. We are just so hard headed it takes a lot for us to hear the normies.❤ We love camping especially in the middle of nowhere without cell service. We just spent 20 days backpacking and camping on the coast of Maine. If I never go anywhere else again I want to go back there! My husband spends the month of September or whatever he gets an Elk in Colorado. I too own my business so I can’t take that much time off but would love to! We love hearing the Elk bugle right outside NC and into TN. We have a path we hike and see bear from TN into Cherokee we do every time we are there ❤️ So glad to have found your channel and I’m so happy to hear you get something out of it too!

It’s amazing that some folks act as if being tea total is a virtue when it’s a preference. I never smoked…it isn’t because i am such a disciplined person…it’s because I never wanted to smoke. Not doing something because you have no urge to do it is not a virtue, letting go of things for the greater better no matter the difficulty is where one finds virtue.

I agree. I know a lot of people who have quit drinking, but continue to smoke and that's ok. I remember going to aa when I was younger and everyone smoked. But, they weren't drinking any longer and were fixing themselves. Can't stop doing everything all at once and I think that leads to relapse. Thank you! God bless
