All it Took Was One Book for Nikki Glaser to Quit Drinking

Mick G. LMFAOOOOO

Bwahahahaha!

Tou fucking ché

Mick G. Lol ain’t that the truth!

maybe that's part of the reason drinking makes people more stupid

Gene Ryan keep it up.

Good luck. I’m only a few days behind you 🙏

Gene Ryan keep it going man, well done. The longer you are free of it the easier it gets

Gene Ryan Are you program?

U won’t make it.

Way to go that's amazing!

let's go ... oh sorry, congrats. Keep it up!

Research shows it takes 2 weeks to make or break a habit. Looks like you've done it! Life definitely gets better but it takes time. I stopped weed and cigarettes within three months of each other. Both 20 year long addictions. My life has improved immeasurably. It's been 10 years now. I prayed to God, used the Alan Carr method and replaced the bad habits with new healthy habits but believe that everyone must find what works for them. Stay strong and vigilant. Everyone has got what it takes to stop and you have proven that by crossing the two week threshold. 💪

Whats the name of the book , congrats on your sobriety brother

@@S550MT09 thank you sir! “The easy way to stop drinking” by Allen Carr

Great job!!

Wow 👏 I'm an alcoholic that's just come of a bender and really want and need to to read this book

@@coolinism I bought the book.... then I found someone had uploaded the audio to youtube. Here it is... kzhead.info/sun/n9eNfM-SbmN3gXk/bejne.html Its 8 hours long so I listened to it in 1/2 hour segments. I stopped drinking at the 2 hour mark. I'm done with it. And I did it BEFORE the book arrived!

@@dojufitz So it worked for you also 👊 Love the fact you finished listening to it before the book arrived Thank you so much very much appreciated Hope it works for me to 🤞💪

@@coolinism Yes it worked for me.... it actually takes no will power - that is the secret.... just approach it with an open mind with the thought that you are now ready to control alcohol. Good luck!

@@dojufitz Thanks for that advice and good wishes 👍

i hope it's going well for you, i just recently quit alcohol too, it's nice not waking up feeling like shit all through the day. i'm rooting for you

Im not affiliated with the channel but 'talk sober' on youtube has helped me. Their videos have lots of info and they do lives every Thursday morning at 11am EST.

almost 8 years. i was a dual-ly very low bottom type. we had a saying, I'm allergic to alcohol, i break out in needles.

Hope I can join u soon ........ I might’ve gone too far

Yup, similar experience. Drank for much longer than the expiration date on fun had passed., years too long. Stopped the day after my 26th birthday, almost 32 now. There's nothing new to find there. Absolute zero desire to ever drink again. No struggle, no AA, just naturally tapered off over a couple of years with the growing realisation I was through with it, until it became months between drinking occasions and the final time was my brother's wedding. Not to mention all that money flushed. Life is much fuller and varied now.

It's a fantastic book, especially for those in the music industry. Working as a full time musician as non drinker is absolutely brilliant

Wtf is this Get Out? Does the book hypnotize you? Am I gonna end up in the sunken place? So doubtful a book will help me quit drinking and smoking. Only pregnancies have at this point.

@@destined4purgatory643 I quit smoking after 40 years with the help of this book. if you want to quit you really don't have anything to lose

That’s true, you have to find your identity. Most adults’ whole persona is party and drugs. That’s not a personality

@@IvoryMane exactly. And that was my vibe too, partying and drunken stories. Every story I've got prior to getting sober is a drunken tale of chaos 😂

Changing social environment is also an option. This is why i'd rather socialize with gym bros even though i don't chase muscle gain. I'm lucky enough there's no working peer pressure to have a drink tho.

You nailed it. I quit almost 4 years ago as well. I'm 42 and in full midlife crisis mode. I'm a square peg going through round holes. I don't fit in anywhere but I'm starting to be ok with that. You have to learn to be yourself and love yourself.

I quit having friends around the same time I quit drinking.

which one?

Justin Krann I read “Easyway To Control Alcohol” but I believe any of them would have the same effect. Highly recommended.

This video made me seek out books on quitting drinking as well. It's nice to see a famous person talk honestly and openly about the destructive nature of alcohol and how quitting isn't an insurmountable obstacle, and could very likely be life-changing for many people.

what was the title?

@@justinkrann7406 I told you above :)

Haha yessss

That is hilarious! :)

You still have feelings?

Some day I’ll tattoo this on me when I’m drunk

@@ladraper7134 not if he drinks

Is "stop drinking now" the same book as "the easy way to stop drinking"? I bought the "stop drinking now" one

​@@callummurphy4671I assume they are different, but I'm not sure how they differ exactly. I read, "The Easy Way to Control Alcohol."

That decision is the miracle!

It takes MANY decisions. You don't get sober once, you work to stay sober everyday when you're in recovery.

Agreed didn't even have a beer for a whole year before I realized I was technically "sober."

It's become a cascade of quitting toxic behavior for me. Started with alcohol (my biggest problem), then quit junk food, now I'm working on quitting porn.

I'd call that one of the fallacies of AA, as someone who is in it right now and feels they get a lot out of it. And as someone who would describe themselves as especially spiritual, I agree that it does not take a miracle.

@Imight Realperson No, Schumer stole that joke from John Mulaney. Nikki gives him full credit for it.

@Imight Realperson yes.... i've seen people comment that she is a slimmer Amy Schumer

Preach! I get annoyed with some of the things she says, but you don’t have to agree with everything ppl say. I think she’s great, and she was awesome on the podcast

@Marius Ipad Female comedy always boils down to, "woe is me, and my vagina." Its why many people don't think women are capable of being funny. Unless you like middle school humor.

@@matthewmorgan7755 I do agree that she is awesome on the podcast at least, if not on the stage.

Congratulations, man! I'm one year sober as of Feb 13th (Couldn't let myself be drunk in front of the GF on Valentines Day again) and it's honestly the biggest quality of life improvement you can make for yourself. Money sticks around longer, ideas are freer, words come quicker: It's almost like turning off life's "hard mode"... And it's insidious because beverage conglomerates have tricked us all into believing that you need beer to be social and that it's a "cultural" thing to get drunk to celebrate our holidays. Stick to it. Your life trajectory inclines a solid, guaranteed 40% when you quit the sauce. 💪

I’m on day 4 and hoping you’re on 370

Which one did you get, I see there are a few.

I'm quitting before I even turn 21

21 here!! good stuff guys, stay on it

Congratulations!

@K W Congratulation on your achievements. Be careful with your health (thin does not mean healthy)

I started drinking at 23, to be honest I should have never started. I always new it was dumb, but got lost in it. I quit this year, I'm 32, and life is waaay better. You made a smart decision!

Jeffrey Marr congratulations man! Happy for you

Would you recommend reading the book if you're interested in not drinking anymore?

@@ultimatehunter101 Thank you. Having a big sobriety party November 3rd if you're near Playa Del Carmen and want to come

@@b_wints1724 Absolutely, it's not the be all end all to quit drinking, but it most certainly gives good reasons to stop and will help you. I also have a video about how I did it on my channel if you want more information on what I did

Jeffrey Marr keep it up brotha. Keeping myself sober has made me so much happier and better father and a husband. I’m never going bakc

Would you say the stuff in the book translates to other dependencies? Including something like gambling?

@@McJohnstable no. They really only focus on why drinking is bad, but their is another book he wrote about quitting smoking that I have heard works wonders!

@@McJohnstable he actually has a gambling book as well that uses the same method

This comment is gold.

I thought about it and I still think that comment doesn’t make sense.

Andrew Baxter Right because if I smoke a joint at 2:00 pm August 13th August 14th is just gonna be pure hell.

God everyone steals that quote and passes it off like its theirs

Great quote.

No such thing an a "Former Alcoholic!" She still is, she just refuses to feed the addiction.

Especially after she just told him she blacks out after 2 drinks and then takes a full day to recover.

@@BrewCrew-tq8oy That's what makes it a "former" alcoholic......

Janice P yeah. that 2 drink thing is a bit odd. if she actually was having raging hangovers from 2 drinks she must have been an incredibly heavy drinker for years. Reduced tolerance only occurs after many years of extremely intense drinking, but it does happen.

JaimeG88 lol! Yep. People without a drinking problem will never quite understand an Alcoholic’s brain. There was literally NEVER such a thing as two drinks to me. For 30 years it was none or ten. One day I decided it had to be none....permanently.

I stopped 31/12/22. I am listening to podcasts about how bad alcohol is. I could never stop drinking, when I had one, I would always have more and more, blacking out, hanxiety, getting into arguments with the people I love... It's not worth it

Get the book! I got the audiobook. It’s more than “if you think it’s easy, it’s easy”, but it will change the way you think about alcohol but you simply won’t want to drink by the end of the book. You’ll be literally elated that you’re finally free of alcohol. You’re relieved that you don’t have to drink anymore.

Covid got me too 4 years sober girlfriend got it too started drinking sitting at the house on and off for a few weeks

I don't drink and drink anymore after getting a DUI while going to the hospital with a head injury

i.e. You planned on only having the one, but the one makes you feel confident enough to have another.

@@jamietodd2560 and then you’re on the floor after taking 15 shots 1 four loco and 3 beers in under 30 minutes and your friends have to stay up with you to check your pulse every few minutes to make sure you’re not going to die That was the 3rd and worst time I had alcohol poisoning. nice quote mate

I love these type of quotes. This is definitely true with Alcohol. It's the most seductive socially acceptable deceiving addiction around imo.

I've heard something similar. "First you take the drug. Then the drug takes you."

@@rnkmode1876 Definitely the most acceptable, it's pushed so heavily that in most cultures not consuming this toxin is 'not normal'. Destructive on many levels, one hell of a drug.

Congrats man. 4 years here.

I'm the same way. After a few days, it's full force.

congrats

Great job!

Yeah, its fairly easy to go on the wagon its almost impossible to have a couple beers. ;)

the Joe Rogan Experience Effect

What book was it?

And Allen Carr.

Wish he'd write a book on how to quit chewing gum. I quit smokes. I quit nicotine gum. Now I need to quit the sugarless gum.

@@savage22bolt32 Good news. He has written a book on quitting sugar and you can buy sugar free gum.

That's exactly why I can't stop drinking. Until I overcome social anxiety, I'll keep drinking.

Yes I know that feeling! I found I just had to drag people into a deeper conversation before they were ready. Sometimes I was on my own in the conversation. It’s hard! But then I never wake up the next day wondering how much of a twat I was the night before.

Find people who can hold deep conversations. I can't do small talk or gossip either but when I would drink, I would engage in it. Since I quit drinking I just can't bring myself to be interested. But I've found some people where we talk about real life and the conversation can go for hours.

Have you tried cocaine? I've never done it, but my buddy does it all the time and he's super talkative.

@@richardsantanna5398 Alcohol in the short term lowers your anxiety but long term makes it much worse.

6 years now I hope ? 🙏

Yea for real I never started there doesn’t seem to be any real benefits to it

Its an AA saying

Hydro Hyro 10 is a lot. I don’t really like drinking or taste of it. It’s either 0 or 10 for me tho.

Advice for alcoholics

12 is not enough, not 10

"If you hang around a barbershop, you'll wind up getting a haircut." was my Mom's favorite line. The one I used was either "I already had all mine" or just, "I'm allergic."

Thanks old head

Great comment!👏👏👏

Mom didn't raise a quitter

Said one Mark Twain.

She also didn't consider the possibility of relapse. I think it's great that she was able to overcome her alcoholism, but if a tornado hit your house or some unforeseen incident, how do you control your tendency to not drink or smoke then? But who knows maybe it does take one book...

Lol yea me too

I did mushrooms after smoking.

I need some mushrooms

It resets you fills up your Delta receptors causing your beta receptors to dump.

I quit smoking after my first LSD trip.

haha me too I was tripping balls at a widespread panic concert through a pack of cigarettes away. I was watching humans smoke and I pictured myself as a lion and a lion would never smoke a cigarette. I was on top of a 10-foot Boulder stretching watching people walk buy. I must of look like a God damn lunatic.

My next goal in life is to quit smoking. Ive been smoking for roughly 13 years now. I feel that the idea of the habit of smoking on a regular basis is my true addiction. Hopefully I can make the move soon. Congrats on you having the ambition to change.

Thanks

STaSHZILLA You can do it, anyone can. I smoked and drank for 15 years. I didn’t read any books, no AA, no rehab, no help. I had a problem and said I’m done. I quit drinking and smoking in the same day, 6 years ago.

That’s the best way to do it . Replaced it with gym and jiu jitsu. Feel much better

Ed Kennedy I had totally quit vaping and any alcohol and was in the best shape of my life. Now all gyms are closed and all anyone does is drink and watch TV bc of shelter in place.

Same here. The pleasure from drinking wasn't worth the pain of the hangovers as I grew older. Also missing out on life a lot got to me.

@ I hear ya. That was my initial and long lasting crutch as well. In a social setting, I drank until fully hammered. No middle ground. All because I became talkative, social and funloving. But I guess I got lucky in that I moved and no longer had all my party friends. My interests developed in things away from solely socializing thru drinking. And was amazed how great it felt to wake up on the weekend (and some weekday) mornings without a hangover. Everyone has a their own path to walk and cross to bear. Now on the occasion I tie one on, the next day reminds me how much I don't miss that lifestyle.

Yea i cant do the hangover no more. Couldnt do shit for a whole day just lay in bed and be depressed

Recently completed dry January and am going to continue not drinking. I'm 27 and the hangovers I get are horrendous now, I totally vouch for what you said.

@@ab8893_ Also 27 and my hangovers are brutal, can't imagine what they'll be like in 10 years

I have been there my friend. Congratulations on your success.

Ive finished the book.

I'm an alcoholic so need to read this book

I read Drinking: A Love Story by Caroline Knapp and quit drinking after that book. Gave me some good insights into why people drink and why addiction exists.

Hey, man! Me too!

I just found this video and bought the book today. I definitely need it

Lose the drink takes a drink bit and it'll make sense

How does a drink take a drink? Fucker

@@tdawg719 because alcohol effects the brain center regulating impulse; it causes a phenomenon of craving. So, the drink has the drink, anon

@@real_lynnblades what you said makes sense up until the drink has the drink part. Just change the words to some that actually make sense and describe what happens and it will be a much better saying all the way around.

great work. keep going !

Damn, good for you! Do you got any keys in the book that helped you the most?

@@Justafayze there is a part that really puts in perspective what relaxing really is, and alcohol is not it. Alcohol raises your blood pressure & respirations, makes you sweat more, bloats you, and makes you nauseous just to name a few. The exact opposite of what relaxing is.

The only thing I regretted about quitting drinking, was that I didn’t do it 20 years earlier. The single most important thing about the book is you have to read it from the beginning to the end. Don’t skip. It’s very tempting to want to just go to the end to find the “secret”. It doesn’t work like that. You’ll ruin your chances if you do that. Whatever you do, DO NOT SKIP TO THE END!! Also: read it with an open mind. Don’t think “this guy doesn’t know what he’s talking about”. Better to think: “maybe this guy is onto something here”.

Good job dude.

You might fail

@Anthony Ramsey the skin/complexion thing is real. It's like an overnight transformation.

Salute bro

Joe “fake beer tastes good” Rogan. It had to be said.

Joseph Brown it is my favorite tasting beer... try odules

For someone that has had some fairly in-depth conversations about addiction, Joe seems oblivious to this kind of stuff lol.

Absolutely! He's that guy everyone knows who thinks doing drugs magically qualifies them as an expert. He honestly was telling Artie Lange on his podcast, that just because he's a recovering heroin addict doesn't mean he can't drink alcohol.

Shammy Cat i remember seeing that. I’ve been thinking for a few years now that Joe is a couple bad decisions away from realizing he’s an addict himself. It’s amazing how he has no concept of how serious drug/alcohol addiction really is. He is either stupid or purposely not accepting it.

Wow, that's one hell of a way to look at it. Good on you.

Beautiful way of seeing things. Congratulations on quitting :)

This one hit differently for me! Thank you.

Same. This book changed my life.

Quit smoking cigs, cannabis and drinking alcohol with Allen Carr.

I went to google there’s many renditions now do you mind if I asked which one it is exactly?

@@Puuuurrrr I don't think it matters the messaging is all the same.

Lee Mack quotes the same book for sobriety

one is never enough, therefore one is always too many

I completely understand. I pass up single random beers every time. I want to sit with a cooler and enjoy my 20 beers. I'm so glad i'm not the only one that thinks this way.

The AA slogan (one of many) is "ONE is too many and a THOUSAND is never enough"

I get this. Once I’m on: I’m ON

Allen Carr, "smoking is like putting on an uncomfortable shoe just to enjoy the pleasure of taking it off." Why put the shoe on in the 1st place?

@@darkknightniner9862 I didn't do well for about five years even after I quit drinking, then I had an epiphany about me being the only one who can save me & I changed everything in my life and things came back into balance. Yeah, I was a hot mess, delusional and sick, the smell of liquor makes me gag now too btw.

@irishwitch333 Well congrats om turning things around! But damn, I love whiskey, but I don't even think I could drink a 5th of it over a span of 2 weeks.

@@darkknightniner9862 I'm an all or nothing person. Same goes for food, I have to really be diligent about balancing choices and exercise. Looking back I probably should have died, be glad you're not the personality type to go overboard, it's a constant struggle, even when it isn't.

Happens to me all the time..."but you can have just a few right?" Not really...her point about killing it after is spot on...it really projects u

I agree with Joe 😁

@@MrRoundthetwist as do I. But that's an idiotic thing to say to someone who is sober.

Joe Rogan is like a modern day Larry King: Prompts great discussion and doesn't step on the interviewee if he feels they're being genuine and dropping truth. Also, I think he's genuinely hungry for perspective and is keen to listen, and that's honestly what we need more of in our society and government: better listeners.

and these subtleties are why so many people love Joe, and the wokeism will never silence him, hes a genuinely good dude.

Good point

@@calsakaguchi3267 some people need a break before they can learn to limit yourself Had a friend that was an alcoholic, he quit for two years, since he started again he never got more than a little buzzed, he used to get black out drunk 3 to 4 times a week, he hasnt blacked out at all in the 6 months since he started back up Some times you need a break to learn to be responsible

I just read it, and haven’t had a drink in almost two weeks. It’s weird, and very logical. Try it for sure!

Mike amen, I’m at that point. I’d only disagree about her saying no side effects. I don’t have any remotely serious ones like DT’s but I sweat like crazy for the first 5 days and very little sleep. Otherwise it’s not bad at all, need to stick to it this time though, took 2 months off during summer after drinking heavy for a while, but took only one visit to a baseball game with friends to bring the raging 🥃 alcoholic back. Probably will check out the book and train my mind if I’m thinking of relapsing for whatever reason. This stuff sucks and is a major waste of time and money. Luckily only stay home and drink or else I’d be broke for sure

Em Gee nice, keep it going, I’m at the same point, 2nd day currently. Took 2 months off before summer somehow but one trip to a baseball game with childhood friends brought me back in again.

Just Another Important Person Yeah my mom died in March (suddenly) and my already problematic “habit” of two glasses or three a night went OFF THE RAILS. Day drinking, blackout stuff. But it’s so true, when I think about it logically, all alcohol did was make my mother’s death unbearable. Way worse. Now I feel sad but not suicidal the way alcohol made me. I try and keep it simple...alcohol makes it all worse. Hang in there, dude.

Nice to hear your guys stories i am one also that cant control my alcohol and its something that relating to people can help change

This books works. It's hypnotic language he uses. That's the books secret

Man, I watch your videos. Have you still stayed sober? I also finished this book 3 days ago, will see how it goes

It is hard, but "Ya NOT dumb". Open your mind, guys! You are your own worst enemy. And fuck the naysayers. Consistency and stubborn perseverance is the way to results. Like most things in this world, it is only as hard as you make it. I smoked cigarettes for a decade +. I fucking loved smoking. Within a single month, two people I loved very much were given a cancer diagnosis. I realized, after what they are going through, that I'd be a selfish piece of shit to smoke another cigarette 100 feet within their vicinity. I enjoyed my last one, then I quit cold turkey 10 years ago. On a side note, my best friend's brother is an alcoholic, and recently been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy. He is in his early 40's, and can no longer stand upright on his own. Now in a wheelchair. Alcoholism has damaged his nervous system to that point. It's fucking scary what it can do to you eventually. If you ever doubt how much badass potential you could have, think of David Goggins. Search youtube JRE David Goggins.

Hi, try mucuna for anxiety

You just have to learn have to socialize while sober. It takes months. I'm the same way. Took me about half year to feel comfortable in social situations, like party or wedding.

Came to post exactly this.

I have never heard someone explain it as perfectly as that. I even argue with the voice, that I infact do not need another drink, just as one gets placed in front of me. You cheeky bastard!

I always say I'm gonna just go out with friends or stay at home and have 2 drinks. But when you're two drinks in, you want to maintain that feeling so you get another one. And another one. But you're not maintaining, you're getting drunker and drunker because you're always gonna be drunker 20 minutes later than you feel at that moment.

Yep! Allen Carr’s book and Jack Trimpey’s book should be more popular than AA. Unfortunately the disease concept is profitable.

Well done man!

Veel succes man! 👍🏻

Broodje Boterham you got a great example in Eminem! Keep it up buddy.

fresh_fit_chef I feel you. Alcohol always leads to coke and staying up till sunrise..sometimes staying up for 2 days..it’s fucking the worst. I have so many female friends that go to work after a night of drinking and blow..zero sleep. It’s insane and they are in denial.

Whats up Dale? Tell us?

Same for me - 1 year ago ,actually 13 months I haven’t touched a cigarette after reading Allen Carr’s smoking book however the drinking book didn’t work for me

When I was about 30 years old, I smoked at least 20 cigarettes a day. I hated it but couldn't possibly imagine how to live without smoking. In the end, I read the Allen Carr book and immediately quit. A year later, I got pretty drunk and relapsed like a fool. Continued smoking for a few weeks and realized I had to do something about it. I found out that there were Allen Car Quit Smoking workshops, so I joined one (it was a full day session). At the end of the session, the guy leading the session said "if you'd like to, you can leave your cigarettes here" and pointed to the corner of the room where there was a huge pile of cigarette cartons. I threw my cigarettes and my Zippo lighter away and never smoked again. That was 20 years ago. I haven't missed it for a single minute and have never once been tempted to smoke since.

@@James-ig3riI regret to inform you, as I'm writing this I am smoking a cigarette. I later 45 days before asking for a cigarette from a work colleague. As soon as I lit it and inhaled, I went straight to my car and went and bought a pack. 😥 I need to try again.

You got it. I actually quit smoking after over 10 years after reading that book and realising the lies in was telling myself about smoking. God bless Alan.
