I apologize for the filter guys!! 🤦🏻‍♂️I did not know I had that filter applied till after it was finished editing!!! Love y’all, stay safe and stay sober! 🙏🏻💯

Binge drinking while binge watching netflix. You restart the sitcom and realise you don’t remember the previous 3 episodes.

Great to see you! I was worried! Regarding negativity. You have to work your own program. People who judge your recovery by how they work theirs has missed the point. I said this in my first comment. My only is advice is NEVER, EVER LET YOURSELF BECOME UNGRATEFUL! Always good to see you.

We All Love You Too Slayer!!!💞

Great video thank you

Hey Slayer well you’re spot on. We must not squander our life by chasing the dragon. We have a choice and you’re right there are days when it’s almost impossible to say no but knowing the end result will be the same should be enough to keep us away from whatever is holding us back in life. It can be anything even unrelated to a substance. Bottom line is we must find joy in life and really be present as tomorrow is not guaranteed. Thank you for your honesty it’s not harsh but your message is clear and concise. Have a great rest of the day! Until next time…

Thumbs Up 👍 and shared out there Slayer!❤

Yes a new slayer video! I dig the lighting man.

It's 420 today and this is the first 420 that I am saying goodbye to weed live celebrated this holiday year after year after year and it's over bro I'm done with it This channel has helped me become sober more than alcohol and it's amazing Thank you Slayer everybody out there keep on moving Don't give up because life is beautiful.

I just want to let you know I've been watching your videos and they helping me so much, I'm an alcoholic I'm 29 I just lost a other job the shakes are unbearable and the fear is out of this world I'm trying to taper down because rehab or detox isn't an option. These videos are helping, I'm not in the realm of delerium tremens but I do feel very confused and scared , alcohol has ruined every job and relationship I've ever had it destroys people like us and I relate to your videos so much it's like listening to myself.! Keep going with your sobriety your living proof that we can get better, god bless you dude. Luke

I agree 💯 everyone is an addict one way or another (workaholic etc) my former usual goto was alcohol (which is a drug) I hit NA meetings occasionally...liking yr content...were on same page...one day at a time brother

Nearing six months!!!

I really love the idea of writing down 10 things you're grateful for when you're down. I feel like it would remind me what i really want to be focusing on. I can promise you that my friends and family will always make that list and it would probably prompt me to make a phone call lol I really squandered my time with my family. I have so many memories that I was a part of that i can't recollect. It's such a shame. So when I'm tempted, I think about everything I missed out on in life and it sobers my brain up. It usually makes me urgently make plans with sometime i love. These connections are the bread and butter of life. I hope you're having a great week! Sending you hugs, prayers and the best of wishes!! It's been beautiful here in NY, I hope the warming weather is getting you excited for the next few months! I can't wait for hikes, the beach and bbq's with my foodie friends 😁

Nice video man. Nice bass also. Maybe a jam session video next? 😊 Also, when you hit 1,000 subs I believe you’ll be able to go live from your phone. If you ever wanted to.

9 days sober today slayer! My personal best in years. Slayer, you’re 10000% part of my support group. Been hitting the AA meetings and between that, are you’re videos, have gotten me to 9 days. Can’t guarantee tomorrow, because I take things 1 day at a time but for today, I will not drink. Thank you my brother. The work you are doing is working and is godsend. Happy Friday brother! Keep up the good work!

_Four weeks can be hard. Four years? Not necessarily._

Bro this message really hit home with me especially when you were talking about everyday living like it's not easy at all like we always have reminders in our own brains It's like a time clock like you said holidays birthdays any kind of celebration any thing that has to do with life in general It triggers us because we do like that warm feeling in our belly and to try to go throughout our day without it anymore is hard but you know what it is so much better It is more peaceful especially in the morning when I wake up I don't have that nauseousness that dizziness that feeling of being tossed in the wind going left or right you know now it's I am steady I have my mind right and I can go through my day and the hardest thing is those moments that trigger us is the hardest thing like you said what works for you might not work for somebody else We have to find our own thing in life to satisfy and put the flame out on those feelings and thoughts that try to overcome us bro we are overcomers we don't want to live that life anymore It's over It's done and that old dead man wants to be revived but you know what we are a new person We are washed clean We will never go back to that It's hard because we've been exposed to the dark side we've been exposed to the highs of doing drugs and drinking and whatever but you know what the Lows are Lows The highs or highs but the lows are lows And I just want to be even keeled steady and solid so my kids my wife and everybody around me can see that. Those days are over man I'll never forget those days They are always a reminder of what not to do I love it bro I'm so happy to see your followers growing and will continue to increase keep it moving homie❤💯✌🏻

"Addiction is a sign of selfishness and deep immaturity". Not sure who said that but I have to agree. It especially makes sense when studies point to addiction being a problem that affects young people more than any other group. Another one someone once said went something like, "The cure for addiction is connection". I like this because instead of thinking the gold ticket is will power, it points to the fact that addiction is not always caused by what people think it's caused by.

Cheers. Human being is the key word for sure

Another great video! You are helping so many people!❤

Excellent video… You are very honest and encouraging. I imagine you’ve helped many people. My son is also a recovering alcoholic…. thankfully sober for 6 years now. I am thankful every day.

I admire you see what has come with the booze as I also do. I send nothing but positive vibes.

Looking forward to part 2

Thanks for sharing that Phil Anselmo vid bro huge fan of Pantera amazing video I would have never known about it unless you shared it man It's truly moving Thanks bro.

3 weeks sober feels great, but one thing i fear is the carvings not yet have those

Damn I needed to hear this

Good video. It's the same reason for my channel. Is that a five-string bass back there? My channel is growing and it looks likes yours is too. I am glad. You hit the nail on the head, man. I have wasted a TON of time. It sucks. You are younger than me and I hope you "get it" and stay there. Don't wait until you are older. Did you ever find out what happened to Dirk?

Your video abruptly ended mid sentence. Idk how much more you had to say. But speaking of living in the present moment I highly suggest “The Power of Now: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose.” By Eckhart Tolle. It’s amazing you should read it or get the audio book. It’s amazing I think it’ll help you man.

When I did 30 days sober in October 2023, I started looking forward to not drinking in the evening, it was crazy and surprising! Just need to try again soon!

you are our friend . can you do a video on loving a alcoholic. because of the lies and emotionally not available. i had to remove my support. she only lasted 3 weeks at rehab. it’s been heartbreaking and i miss her . but i has to sail to another country with my dog as had i stayed i would have been witnessing dysfunctional behaviour.

Man I wouldn't know what day it was, what time it was, I wouldn't be able to get out out of bed and when you wouldn't want to drink you know you had to cause the withdrawals are so bad i'd sleep only a couple hours at a time cause id start withdrawing and when i crawled out of bed and start drinking id cry at times cause i felt so trapped in this hell hole.

Just stay the course, my friend.

hi bro i told you i would update you . she drank tonight as she is house sitting ( on her own ) lasted 5 to 6 weeks. i’m hoping this is just one night . very disappointing as she will definitely start again

I find alcohol is just a fake happiness because the next day you feel the opposite of what this drug gives you.

Life's way to short to hate each other
