People get DUIs all the time. People drink and get into fights all the time. People kill each other in those DUI accidents and in those bar fights. So for you it may be "no big deal" but for a large amount of society it is a big deal.

I believe you are right drinking for the most part is a cultural thing and with the cultural shift and drugs being everywhere and cheaper then drinking and pot being legalized drinking is taking a back seat with the younger generations.. That's probably a good thing.. But the drug Alternative is definitely no better.. Plus all domestic and imported beer's and liquors are owned by In-Bev a Globalist Lizard People company partnered with big pharma I have noticed that men who drink beer regularly have "gynecomastia" -->men who grow titties and lactate I know this is conspiracy theory Alex Jone's gay frog water thing But I personally would not trust anything that Globalist Lizard people and Big Pharma have any part of period.. It also seems strange to me that like half the population of the world has become homosexual, transgender or pedophiles or all three together over night.. Amazing how you sober up you start to notice these things.. Just seems kinda strange to me..

I almost died some 45 years ago After attending a party when in college. I took my bottle of Paul Masson Rose wine home, even though we all had plenty to eat during the function and plenty to drink -- I woke up the next morning after going to bed to sleep it off. I'd gotten sick while asleep , had I choked Ugh the laundry I had to do that morning, a shower to get the smell off me ... I'd not be here to tell the tale. I'm in my mid-60s now. Swore off all wine and social drinking from that point on, anything drank by myself was limited by me for only special occasions. Like maybe a couple times a year birthday, wedding invite, etc. Had my last drink at a restaurant over 36 years ago. Don't miss any form of alcohol. I have seen people's lives unravel from it! Best thing is to avoid this 'evil' little social crutch.

Currently active alcoholic. Planning to quit in the near future. This video literally brought tears to my eyes. I think the hardest thing about this video is it forces me to confront the fact that every night I drink until I pass out, and I know I'm hurting myself, but I'm so fucked up inside I keep doing it. Even though I have an amazing job, a once in a lifetime spouse and two absolutely beautiful children. Every night and all day long during the day on my days off I'm always under the influence. I don't want to escape my reality anymore. My life is amazing. I think I just hate the person I am without it. I don't know how to be light hearted and easy going without it. I don't know how to be or maybe just not motivated to be funny or outgoing without it. I can't just relax and enjoy life without it. I can't love and appreciate my wife and kids without it. But it's all a facade. It's all fake. It's induced. It's like I'm doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Only Mr Hyde is who I am when I'm sober. Inpatient, harsh, rigid, cold. I want to be who I am when I'm drinking without being drunk.

I've been exactly where you are at.. and it took me nearly 10 years to finally quit.. unfortunately, someone in your situation usually stops drinking in only one of 3 ways. 1- your brain becomes so damaged from years (or decades) of abuse that you start recognizing irreversible signs of alcohol related brain damage and dementia. 2- something horrible happens that forces you to rethink everything.. car crash, dead family member, financial loss, jail, dismemberment, alcohol related diseases (mouth cancer, stomach cancer, esophageal cancer, etc.. . 3- Death. The wake of destruction that alcohol takes on you and those around you grows with every passing year and those negative effects are exponential and compound with each year, Quit now before you have to go through what a real long term drinker has to go through.

I quit drinking 15 months ago, after a 43-year run with a few months or so of abstaining here and there. Definitely the longest I've gone without a drink and I haven't craved it or been called by it. AA helped a lot as did some voluntary outpatient sessions. It was time to let it go. I feel a lot better without question. I do enjoy weed though but it's not detrimental to me. I've been into and around it since I started drinking but I was able to quit it without any trouble a few times so I'm not concerned about it since I learned moderation a long time ago. It does help with my anxiety and Parkinson's. I learned some eye-opening stuff about alcohol when I was in outpatient.

After it was gone I started sneaking bottles of Amish Wine from my grandma's house. I was a full-blown Alcoholic by 14. My mom caught on and she saw that I could handle it okay so she started buying me a $1.00 40oz. Beer a day. When I was 18 I started drinking 80 proof whiskey. I drank almost everyday for 20 years befor I was able to quit at 34.

I have gotten my drinking under control since six years ago when I went on carnivore diet. Now I only have a celebratory drink on holidays, and I am around alcohol all the time. I face the temptation all the time and have zero issue staring it down. Occasional cigars are much nicer and enjoyable. Now to take issue with the video. I will never support the banning of any substance. Prohibition was a disaster and the drug war has been an even bigger disaster. Dangerous liberty is the answer, and we must embrace this fact. External controls backed up by threats of force and violence do not solve problems for society or individuals. The individual will not be free from his weaknesses until he learns to overcome them. No law can bring this to us. There is also a second area of consideration. There are disease processes that ethanol is known to have a positive effect on. You'll find plenty of studies on this in the area of epilepsy and maybe even depression, and more if you care to look at the NCBI.

I've been clean and sober for 40 years as of last January. A lot of the things this video says is true to some but not all. Opinions are overwhelmingly to some because it's inconceivable to most that suffer from alcoholism. The hardest fact of all is that the effects are different for different people and the results are the same for all alcoholics. Focusing on the problem excessively looses the solution, and that is SELF commitment.

At the age of nearly 70 I look back on a life of almost no alcohol - often zero for decades at a time - with gratitude. But the motivation to ban it must come from something greater than our previous failed attempts to do so. It has to come from an inner transformation of our social thinking and values. Sadly I do not think we are ready for this just yet.

My mother and father smoked and had an afternoon cocktail since the 1930’s. They both lived to 87. They were hard working and calm cool and collected people. My eldest brother didn’t smoke but drank pretty heavy and died at 72 from dementia. Another of my brothers just died at 68 from heart disease and severe diabetes. He drank and smoked. I was actually in the premium wine and spirits business, even so I was never a really big drinker. I also used to smoke cigars for about36 years. I quit both very easily about 10 years ago and really don’t miss it.
