Hi everyone

Welcome rullzy613 and littlebigman!

Way to go allport on day6!

Hi steamvessel - I remember you were really encouraging to me when I came to SR first time around back in the spring. I was going through a tough time - I was stuck in a cycle of a few days sober followed by several days of relapse - and I remember your encouragement at that time. Thank you!

Welcome littlebigman. Days 3 and 4 seem to be really tough for a lot of us
here. Hang on your almost there. Physically you might start feeling a little bit
better really soon. Just don't pick up, because it will send you all the way back to where you started from, or even worse! The only way through it is through it. Good news is there are great people here to encourage and support you all the way.

steamvessel - Congratulations on day 5. Good for you!

allport - Day 7 for you today, right. I loved what you said about relating
to all of our early struggles here. It helps so much to know we aren't
alone. It feels great to fit in somewhere doesn't it. You most surely fit in.

Hey ksplash - Have a good day. Sorry you left your wallet at home. I find myself forgetful a bunch these days. I just shake my head and wonder if I'm ever going to get my brain back at times.

Rullzy - Thinking about you. How are you doing today?

Hey PD and Shanman - hope your day goes well!

just got back from my second aa meeting and i thought i do a quick post before i go to bed. Reading these forums has led to me being able to look at the aa meetings in a different way, i now realise that the problem last time i went wasnt the meetings it was me. I was so judgemental and defensive that I didnt let any one get close to me.Tonights meeting was about acceptance which Im sure everyone can relate to. I dont think ill ever come to believe but im willing to give and take support wherever its offered. I hope these positive feelings last but I know they wont so instead I hope I have the strength and support to deal with whatever turns up. x
