Recovering alcoholic from England
I'm new to the forum and I'd just like to say 'hi'!

I stumbled across the forum by accident when doing a google search for PAWS, which is what I suspect I'm beginning to go through. I'm 29 now and I've been an alcoholic since the age of 18.

Anyway, I won't bore you with a long intro! Nice forum.

Hello WizardKing, I'm also from the UK.

I'm very new to this forum but it's the best I've found online and the people are very helpful. I hope you stick around and find the help you're looking for.
