Having quit on 17th September, I feel like I have one foot in the September thread and one foot in this one... so if it's ok, I'll kick-start this thread

Just want to pop in and offer encouragement to everyone. I stopped drinking in June of 2012 and the support here on SR was invaluable

Won't be long Skye!
Welcome to anyone on the fence about posting.
Become a member and come in and say how you're feeling or just say hi!.... SR is so wonderful and made THE difference in me becoming sober.

I quit September 22, so I was a bit late to the game. Glad to be apart of the October 2013 class!

Hi, Octsobermates!

Welcome to SR!

I am from class October 2012. Now I love October, even with its cold weather and rains, and breath of winter coming slowly... Because in October I found SR and it really changed my life.

I've got the greatest and warmest support here, got new friends who encourage me during the toughest and hardest times, and give me their faith when darkness of doubts and memories from the past attack me.

I love this place - because you can share your feelings and concerns without being afraid to be judged. And it's just awesome!

In October 2012 I was sitting in front of my laptop, crying and feeling desperate, not knowing where to turn for help. Now I've found and developed the precious gift of sobriety - hope and new vision.

Take the first step, take one day at a time, believe in yourself. Even if right now you may feel like everything is falling apart in your life - take the first step in faith, and there will be road ahead.

I wish you the best of luck on your sobriety journey!

Take care and keep posting!

Can we call ourselves 'Tobies' for short?

I'm new to the forum and just want to say hi. I managed to go 12 days in September alcohol free, but ended up getting drunk on September 29 (thought I could one and done; not so). So, I guess September 30th is not only my birthday, but the restart to sobriety.

I'm in.
With no little amount of trepidation, but also no alcohol in my system this calendar day.
