The Undisputed Facts Behind Getting and Remaining Sober | How I Did It
I’m Kohdi, and I’ve assisted thousands of people in overcoming addiction and remaining clean.
People have asked me how to give up drinking tens of thousands of times via inbox messages and hundreds of thousands of times in the comments section of my TikTok channel.
They are interested in learning how to get and remain sober.
They are sick and tired of giving up, of falling back into their old habits, and of being preoccupied with thoughts of booze all the time.
More importantly, they are sick of the sensation that they will always be broken.
When I was sick and taking 30 shots a day, I heard people say things like, “You’re always going to be an alcoholic, no matter what you do.”
When I was drinking, I believed the world, everything, and everyone was out to get me, and as a result, I deserved everything I wanted because of the amount of struggle that I was going through.
I was in a mindset of poverty, poor me, and entitlement.
When I was drinking, I thought the world, everything, and everyone was out to get me.
I was drinking four shots first thing in the morning, two shots every hour, napping for the better part of the day, and then going out and partying till the wee hours of the morning.
I literally overdosed on alcohol and died as a result.
After overcoming liver failure, I came to the realization that I don’t want anyone else to go through anything that is even somewhat similar to what I went through.
Because it was vital that I become a better person, I decided to invest a ridiculous amount of money in personal development programs and attend every personal development course that was available.
If I live the life of an unhealthy person, I can’t reasonably expect to lead a healthy lifestyle myself.
If I drink, I’ll die,
I am in the fourth stage of cirrhosis, and I will share with you everything that I have discovered as a result of participating in all of those programs that have helped me become the person that you see today.
The first step toward quitting is radical acceptance of the fact that you are deliberately creating fresh trauma in your mind and body with every sip of alcohol you consume.
Regardless of how you feel about how much you drink or your past traumatic experiences, this fact does not change.
The fact that you believe quitting drinking is impossible is the primary factor in your inability to do so.
You, like every other person who has ever gotten sober, have a limiting belief about your ability to stay sober. “I can’t”.
“I can’t because I’ve already lost too much progress.”
“I can’t afford to do it right now”.
“I simply do not have enough time.”
“I don’t think I’m a very good person.”
“It runs in my family”.
“It’s just in the cards for me to turn out to be an alcoholic.”
People despise having to face the reality that they have the ability but are not yet prepared.
It was really difficult for me to come to terms with the realization that how I felt did not affect anything and was irrelevant to the situation.
It’s one of the quickest blows to the ego that can be delivered.
If you don’t start accepting things for what they are, you’re going to keep punishing yourself with alcohol for what they’re not, and this cycle will continue as long as you don’t start accepting things for what they are.
You need to quit being so hard on yourself and give yourself another another excuse to drink.
Stop beating yourself up.
Otherwise, you are going to keep drinking despite the fact that you have discovered that the reasons you drink have nothing to do with your health.
Although you are not the problem, you simply have one.
Whatever narrative is going through your head at the moment is not helping you move forward; rather, it is causing you to put in twice as much effort with none of the outcomes to show for it.
You didn’t select your addiction, your high tolerance, or the environment; the sooner you embrace this truth, the sooner you’ll give yourself permission to try something new in order to get different results.
I’m not just some random guy who repeats useless information from a book.
I am a former alcoholic who survived liver failure, and I have recorded this step-by-step process for removing the subconscious programming that leads to relapse.
I’ve developed four of the most effective ways to stay sober on the planet, and none of them require you to leave the comfort of your own home.
Using these answers, I was able to transform myself from a miserable alcoholic who was on the verge of death in the intensive care unit while battling liver failure into a joyful, healthy human being who is living the life of his dreams.
Now, here’s the thing: putting an end to your drinking won’t guarantee anything, nor will it make you into a completely different person.
It shows a lot of the reasons why you started drinking, and a lot of the thoughts that you had been trying to repress are going to rise to the surface as a result of it.
Unfortunately, that may give you another excuse to drink, and that’s why I developed a step-by-step program that covers all five of the additional areas to help you progress further into long-term recovery.
This program will help you advance further into sobriety.
Keep in mind that acknowledging the reality that you are causing harm to yourself with each and every drink is the first step toward kicking the habit of drinking.
And the second step is realizing that your entire life is a series of habits, and that you are not going to be able to break that cycle of pain that causes you to identify as an alcoholic unless you are able to successfully distinguish between good habits and bad habits.
Believe me, even if you’re not actually an alcoholic, people will continue to label you as one and you will continue to act like on until it becomes fact.
