Meet Matt
Hi, I'm Matt. I drank for more than 20 years. Alcohol ran my life — my choices, my relationships, all of it. The turning point was a phone call from my son. That call got me into rehab for 30 days, and I came out sober. I've been sober for 3 years and 8 months now, one day at a time.
I started Still Standing with Matt to share my experience, strength, and hope — the thoughts and quotes that kept me going, in case they help someone else keep going too. Every day I share something real: no lectures, no perfect answers, just what's true.
If you're here, you're still standing too. That's enough for today.
From the channel
A few of the morning thoughts from Still Standing with Matt:
“I protect my peace like my life depends on it, because it does.”
“Small steps, sober mind, steady heart.”
“I keep my promises to myself now. That's the whole game.”
“The urge is temporary. The pride of staying sober lasts.”

Is there something you wish somebody would talk about honestly — a hard day, a question about staying sober, a part of recovery nobody mentions? Suggest it here. Matt reads every idea, researches the ones he can, and turns them into videos and posts on the channel.
