New to This Forum - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

caleb76 · 10-28-2009, 12:46 PM

I have been completely abstaining from alcohol for a little over six months. I abused alcohol for several years. Somehow, I don't think I ever became chemically dependent on alcohol. Lucky for me! I have stopped drinking by becoming very involved with my local AA group. I love the program. I tried to quit by myself for many years. Not until I gave up and started getting help from the folks at AA did I have any success. I am realistic and know that I could screw up at anytime. Fortunately, I have daily reprieve from drinking based on what decisions I make everyday.

I love AA! I decided to join this forum so that I could have this fellowship in addition to AA. I hope to get to know some of you folks better over time!

Keep coming back, it works if you work it.

Easy does it.

Bye for now!

Between AA and SR - you're in a good place.

See ya around.
