Well, never thought I would make it !

here I am 6 months sober ! I cant believe it !!!!

It is due to the fellowship of AA, and my HP, and in no small way , the friends I have made here on SR!

How well I remember those first few days here , and how I hung on every response !

6 months ago, i could not leave my house to walk 2 blocks to the shop, and today , I travelled by train for 1 hour, to attend a meeting I have never been to before .....alone , what a change .

Thank you everyone

HUGX

Wonderful
Congratulations. Stay the course one day at a time and before you know it, you will be reminding us that it is one year.
