I had a 30 pack of beer and half gallon in a cart at Walmart today... ran through my mind how this purchase was going to play out... thought about the last hangover (lasted days) after my last bender... I walked out of the store w.o. anything... took a lot to make that decision but I'm glad I did.

[SyntheticJoy]

I drank the same amount, drove to work/home, etc.
& I’m 400 days sober today
Starts with the first step ‼️‼️
Edit: 500 days sober

[jbuck]

You can do it Tristan. You can tell that he has a kind soul.

I’m an alcoholic and it’s so hard quitting. I pray for anyone living with this demon on their back.

[TheGhostOfMichaelJackson]

I drank the same amount of vodka, every night for years after coming home from Iraq. Eventually I got tired of it and quit. Anything’s possible.

[RhondaRalph]

Congratulations, Tristan, on one year sober. I remember how it felt to get my one year medallion in 1994. You are happy and humble. Keep coming back. ❤

[ginabatbayar]

Omg he looked so good !! Did you see those beautiful curls. Keep fighting Tristan 🎉 we are all rooting for you. 11 months sober myself !

I just relapsed after a few months sober. Starting over again. My millionth attempt. Maybe one of these times it’ll stick. Not giving up giving up. Edit: thank you everyone. ✌🏻it means a lot to me. 🖤

I drank more than that bottle a day. Needed that much to survive at one point. Now I’m almost 7 years in recovery. Work for the state of CT as a mental health worker and published 2 books. We do recover

The recent hurricane ruined my house, still without power after a week. This is the most I’ve been tempted to drink since I finally successfully quit a year and a half ago. This video was what I needed to remind me that it’s never ever worth it

[hooliganlexx]

Some of the biggest hearts end up being in so much pain. They can't fathom how cruel this world can be. This man is beautiful and I hope he finds peace, he deserves it.

Seeing him break down about how he saw his mother getting hurt… you can tell he has such a beautiful and kind soul. I’m really rooting for him

[daiale]

[Mrs.Arado]

I used to be an alcoholic and vodka was my drink of choice. I used to drink it straight from the bottle before work and drinks after work. Just looking at him guzzling the vodka made me sick to my stomach. I was hospitalized a few times and after my last hospitalization, I decided to get sober. I feel amazing and living a healthy life now.

[kristenk.]

Whoever is watching this right now and is struggling with an addiction I am praying for you. I can’t even begin to imagine how difficult it must be but you are strong and I know you can fight this

[tuckeravery]

I dranks the same amount if not more for years! I was going through a handle a day (which is 1.75 leters). Wish him the best! Its a sad life! I know cause i lived that life for so long. Ive been sober since November 2023!

[Shymeen]

Prayer for everyone struggling in active addiction. Sorry, hurt and pain, won't last forever 🙏🏼

[blaisetelfer]

You can tell just from his voice how much better he feels 3 months later

[jamesni]

Some people just can't drink alcohol. Until, you realize that you are truly powerless to it, is when you can get sober. 2+ yrs sober right here.
